This is not a competition between two people of equal strength, but a-for-tat confrontation between two camps in the court.

The victor will stand proudly in the court from now on, calling for wind and rain.

Loser......

Moreover, who can be sure that his previous concessions were not based on retreat?

On the other hand, King Yu has been steady and quiet, but it is even more terrifying, because it is always unusually calm before the storm......

————————————————————

Regardless of the wind and rain outside, the Qingning Mansion was peaceful and tranquil.

The lotus flowers on the Biyue Pond are in full bloom, snow-white as jade, pale pink as the glow, all of which are in bloom on the blue waves, paving a light and fresh silk.

The wind blew, and the silk shook lightly, sending wisps of fragrance and stirring the curtains of the pavilion in the pool.

The curtains danced lightly, and occasionally a figure appeared.

The figure was full of shadows, as if he was contemplating with his eyes down, and as if he was sipping fine wine, and the beautiful scenery in his eyes seemed to him to be nothing.

A pair of swallows flew diagonally, their wings moving the curtain, and the figure that had not been clear was hidden behind the curtain again......

Yuwen Xuanyi leaned against the rosewood fence of Lingbo Pavilion, holding a sleeping beauty in his arms.

He looked at her for a moment, wrapped her cloak tightly from time to time, and from time to time arranged the broken hair that was blown to her face by the wind, for fear that she would not sleep comfortably.

The corners of his lips smiled, and he took the white jade carved cup and sent it to Yin Hong's lips, took a sip, but did not swallow it, but mischievously approached the beauty's pink lips and slowly sent it in.

The beauty was indifferent, and the clear drink moistened the pink lips and slid down the corners of the lips.

He wiped the wine with a handkerchief, shook his head and sighed, "You refuse to obey again." You said I would take you to enjoy the lotus, but you fell asleep; You let people drink with me, but you left me alone to drink......"

He counted, but refused to be harsh on her, and his long fingers caressed the corners of her lips.

The corners of her lips curled slightly, as if she was proud of her unreasonableness.

He also smiled, hugged her, and shook it like a child: "It's okay, when you wake up, we will look at the lotus flowers again, and then drink to the moon." But I'm worried that you're going to have to sleep for a long time...... Jinling, you know what? Mu Feng came yesterday...... Do you remember how long it has been since you saw him? This time, he has added another daughter, waiting for us to drink the full moon wine. But you were asleep, and Mu Feng waited for a long time, so he had to leave. I didn't dare to tell him about you, King Lie and Mu Feng entrusted you to me, but I didn't take good care of you, I was really worried that their father and son would join forces to beat me......"

chuckled and kissed the tip of her slightly cool nose: "You are asleep now, who will help me then?" His father and son are known for their ruthlessness, what if you beat me so much that you can't recognize me? ”

In the distance, Zhihua was hurrying over, and when he saw Fulu Suki guarding outside the pavilion, he didn't feel that he slowed down, and his lips and teeth moved slightly.

Fu Lu Shouxi frowned and shook his head at her.

Zhihua clenched the handkerchief in his hand, ignored Fulu Shouxi's obstruction, and walked into the Lingbo Pavilion.

Yuwen Xuanyi was talking to Su Jinling with a smile, unaware of her appearance.

The handkerchief in his hand tightened and tightened, and finally decided to speak: "Lord, it is better to send the princess to warm up the Yusheng Fragrance Pavilion, and when the princess wakes up, let's enjoy the lotus together......"

Yuwen Xuanyi only stared at the person in his arms, smiled and shook his head: "No, she can't tell when she will wake up, and she just wakes up for a while, I'm afraid of ......"

"But it's been three days!" The painting is urgent.

Three days ago, on the fourth day of the eighth month, the princess woke up and said that she wanted to reward the lotus, because the prince had promised it "the day before yesterday".

The princess now has a vague concept of time, because she often falls asleep inexplicably, and when she wakes up, she only thinks that it is only a while, and the people in the palace dare not remind her, but she falls asleep as soon as she arrives at Lingbo Pavilion, and the prince holds her and keeps watch here for three days and three nights.

"Don't worry," Yuwen Xuanyi's eyes were focused, and the corners of her lips smiled: "She smelled the fragrance of lotus flowers, and she woke up after a while......"

Because of the great loss of vitality caused by taking the Condensing Pill, he forced Ye Yiqin to save her life for two months, and he wanted to take advantage of these two months to go back and forth to Su Ra to ask for elixir for her. But things changed suddenly, and the emperor learned the truth and promised to work with him and Yuwen Xuancang to get the antidote from Duan Eryang. However, the solution has long been destroyed, and Duan Eryang is dead again.

Of course, he didn't completely pin his hopes on Duan Eryang, and when the emperor agreed to cooperate with him, he sent someone to secretly go to Su Ra to find Master Huo Yin, and asked him to come to the imperial capital to talk about it.

However, on the fourth day after Duan Eryang's death, the report said that the Maha Valley had become a charred ruin, and that there were still unextinguished flames scattered in several places, and that Master Huo Yin was nowhere to be found, and that all this happened the night before the arrival of the people he had sent......

Knowing that a son is not as good as a father, the emperor must have expected it, so he sent someone to cut off his thoughts, so he also cut off this way of life.

Now, he has only one hope, but when will that hope come?

He was looking forward and fearing, fearing that what he was expecting would still be empty, and ......

Fingers brushed lightly over her slightly cool cheeks...... Her long eyelashes are like still butterfly wings, spreading a heavy shadow under her eyes.

Today is the seventh day of the eighth month, according to Ye Yiqin's estimate, she has survived for two months, but ...... There aren't many days left.

In order to reduce the loss of vitality, the medicine given to her now is to make her sleep more and move less, so that she can last for a while longer.

She was very obedient, so obedient that she was silent even when she had a Gu poison attack six days ago.

He stood by her side, watching the blood and worms gurgling out of her mouth, smearing the brocade quilt.

And she slept so deeply, her face was quiet, as if she was in a beautiful dream.

He packed everything for her, went to bed and hugged her, but he was surprised that she had become so light, like a feather, ready to fly away at any moment, like the swan in a dream......

So, no matter where he went, he had to hold her, for fear that if one of them was not careful, she would really fly away, and he would not be able to catch up......

"Jinling, no matter what, I will accompany your ......"

He smiled, hugged her hard, and kissed her sideburns gently.

The paintings on the side are sad and frightening. According to the prince's feelings for the princess, she was only worried that if the princess really went, the prince would also ......

"Lord Wang......" Fulu Shouxi suddenly broke in, his face full of joy: "Lord Qiqi, King Wending has arrived in ......"

Yuwen Xuanyi smiled for a moment, slowly raised his head, looked at him in disbelief, and didn't say a word for a long time.

Fu Lu Shouxi's nose was sour, but he was ridiculously happy: "The prince heard it right, it was King Wending, who was waiting in Kongcui Hall, and Xiaowanzi had just come to report." ”

The smile blooms, like the swaying fragrant white lotus in the pool.

He picked up Su Jinling, let her sit diagonally in his arms, and pinned a wisp of hair behind her ear.

"Jinling, our hope is here......"

————————————————————

"Jinling ......"

"Does that really work?"

"How do you know if it works if you don't try it?"

"But ......"

Su Jinling watched him untie her little clothes suspiciously, her lips lightly touched her snow-white chest, and she couldn't help but snort softly.

His body immediately tightened, hugged her, looked into her eyes, smiled softly at the corner of his lips, and his voice was already slightly hoarse: "Jinling, I miss you so much......"

"No, in case ......"

"Just once, it's no big deal, can you bear to let me suffer like this?" He deliberately made a painful expression to show her: "Don't worry, if it doesn't work, let's find another way, if it can...... Isn't it the best of both worlds? ”

He leaned into her ear and whispered, his soft breath stirring her hair and shaking her will.

"Now, you should save me......"

The last word was already submerged in a sinking breath.

His kiss faded downward, and wherever he passed, the peach blossoms bloomed and the fragrance overflowed.

People seem to be really in a peach blossom bloom, which is the peach blossom mountain where they stopped when they traveled far away...... Flowers are like clouds, fragrant like a sea of snow, colorful butterflies are fluttering, and falling flowers are colorful...... They were so happy then......

He sighed and slowly buried himself deep into her softness.

Hearing her murmur in his ears, the corners of his lips hooked, but followed by the man in white clothes turned around, and his usual light expression rarely showed solemnity: "Xuanyi, this time, there is no way back, will you blame me?" ”

————————————————————

"Do you blame me?"

In the empty cui hall, the cloud-white figure with a body of wind and dust looked at him.

He stood with his hands in his hands, silent for a long time.

Yuwen Xuanhuan smiled faintly, as if laughing at himself: "Originally, I was hesitant to tell you, but then I heard that my father was seriously ill, and you and Xuancang ...... Do you think I'm helping him? Or am I trying to? ”

"How can King Wending, who has always been unconcerned about mundane things, be so concerned now?" He raised his eyes to look at Yuwen Xuanhuan, and suddenly smiled: "For her, what's not to do?" I'm just worried about whether this one will succeed in one fell swoop! ”

He knew that she had held on to her hopes countless times and failed countless times, and this frustration and despair alone was enough to make people depressed. Her recent drowsiness, apart from the drug, how can it be said that it is not to escape from reality?

"During the Ming Emperor's period, because a Miaojiang woman entered the palace to make trouble, it led to the tragic death of Queen Suyue. Therefore, in a fit of rage, Emperor Ming ruined the land of Miaojiang and almost slaughtered the people of Miaojiang. Fortunately, the ministers dissuaded him, and Fang issued a decree ordering Miao Jiang women to never enter the palace, and once they violated the will, they would be killed! The triennial draft must be strictly investigated, and if a Miaojiang woman is selected for favoritism or negligence, the people involved must be sentenced to death. And if the Yuwen family or court officials have any connection with the Miao Jiang people, the former will be expelled from the Yuwen royal family, and the latter will be punished by the nine clans. Later, he exiled the Miao Jiang people to the wild land and left them to fend for themselves. In the past three hundred years, there are not many Miaojiang people left......"

Yuwen Xuanhuan sighed: "A month ago, I went deep into the land of Miaojiang, but I saw that there were already a lot of people there, but most of them were Han people, and because Emperor Yu Wei of the Ming Dynasty still existed, they didn't say a word about the people of Miaojiang. Later, I inadvertently helped a shepherd boy find a lost cow, and he suggested that I might as well go to the cemetery. ”
