Chapter 192: Starry Night Banquet Cheng Wangfu (3)
"Shen Yu?" Emperor Tianzhu's narrow and charming phoenix eyes flashed with an indistinguishable luster, and he did not express his position in time.
Seeing that the Emperor of Heaven was noncommittal, he was a little puzzled for a while. Didn't Shen Yu win the battle from Jiang Di? It stands to reason that he is a hero of the rebellion, why did the Emperor of Heaven react like this when he heard his name? Shouldn't we be rewarded? Or is it ...... Emperor Tianzhu has always been worried about the affairs of the Marquis of Wenchang?
Thinking like this, Izuku couldn't help but faintly begin to worry about Shen Yu's future. Unexpectedly, at this time, Emperor Tianzhu suddenly replied to Nie Peixiao: "It's okay, teach me to see, who is better between the two of you." When he said the last four words, he clearly saw the eyes of the Heavenly Emperor glancing at him, with a bit of indescribable deep meaning.
What does this mean...... Before Xiu could figure it out, Nie Peixiao had already coughed lightly and smiled bluntly: "I'm afraid what the imperial brother wants to see, it's not just whose martial arts are better?" As he spoke, he also looked at Chu Xiu with burning eyes.
This sentence is so frank and direct, I can't help but let Xiu Ran out, but fortunately, the lights are overflowing, but it also covers her expression.
Emperor Tianzhu took the opportunity to tease Nie Peixiao: "Jingduo, don't surprise Mrs. Xiu. ”
Nie Peixiao smiled silently. The reason why he said this was to deliberately divert his imperial brother's attention from Shen Yu, and it was not entirely a confession to Izuxiu. So he said again: "Since the imperial brother does not object, the younger brother will summon General Shen to help the fun." ”
Emperor Tianzhu's face was obviously much softened, and he said "um" without saying anything more. Nie Peixiao casually beckoned the attendants and whispered a few words, and after a while, he heard the sound of calm and quiet footsteps coming from the spiral staircase, and came towards the third floor step by step.
When he came out of Xiu, he remembered the scene at the deep gate just now, and a trace of panic appeared on his face again. She took a sip from her glass, deliberately not looking at the approaching man. However, when did Shen Yu's aura become so compelling? The more I didn't look at him, the more I could feel his breath oppressing, a light medicinal fragrance, and that solemn and cautious temperament.
Shen Yu didn't look at Xiu, and solemnly bowed to Emperor Tian and Nie Peixiao: "Weichen Shen Yu, I have seen the Holy Lord and His Royal Highness. Xu is genius Nie Peixiao had already ordered someone to tell Shen Yu about the martial arts competition, he seemed very calm at the moment, and he didn't ask more.
Emperor Tianzhu looked at him for a long time before he slowly spoke: "I haven't seen your skills yet, you don't teach me to be disappointed." ”
Shen Yu clenched his hands into fists, still maintaining a kneeling posture, and received orders in a deep voice: "Weichen must do his best." ”
Nie Peixiao also spoke at the right time: "General Shen, you and I will use a stick of incense as a time limit to perform light skills from outside the Star Picking Tower, and whoever reaches the top of the building first will win." ”
Who knew that Shen Yu pondered for a moment and put forward different suggestions: "Weichen has a proposal to dare to do it, just to perform light work, it doesn't make much sense, if you find an object to be placed on the top of the Star Picking Tower as a color head, whoever picks this thing first and presents it in front of the saint will be considered the winner." How is it? ”
Before Emperor Tianzhu could speak, Nie Peixiao already clapped his hands and smiled: "This is a good idea. ”
At the same time, Izuku was taken aback. If it's just a light competition, it's naturally not a big deal, it's just a matter of winning or losing; But if they want to compete for the lottery, Nie Peixiao and Shen Yu will definitely dismantle each other, which is extremely risky...... Besides, Nie Peixiao is a dignified and honest king after all, if Shen Yu accidentally hurts him for a while, wouldn't this be the following crime?
Thinking of this, Izumi subconsciously blurted out: "This is a bad idea." ”
"Oh? Why does Madame say this? Emperor Tianzhu finally came to be interested, and asked with raised eyebrows.
Izumi pondered for a moment, and had to find an excuse: "The sword has no eyes, climbing high and dangerous, if you have to fight for the demolition move again, in case you miss it......"
Before she finished speaking, Emperor Tianzhu was already smiling; Madame underestimated them both. King Cheng and General Weiyuan are not idle people, and such trivial things are not difficult for them. ”
Nie Peixiao is also full of confidence: "The two of me are bare-handed, and the point will stop." Madame rest assured. He thought for a moment, frowned and said to himself: "Then what kind of object should be placed on the top of the Star Picking Tower, so that it can be both obvious and easy to fight?" ”
Just thinking about it, Nie Peixiao suddenly had an idea and looked at Xiu's wrist: "The sea blue bracelet that Madame is wearing tonight is very crystal clear, and there is also light flashing in the night. I don't know if it's convenient to borrow this bracelet and use it as a color head for the two of us? ”
Hearing this, Emperor Tianzhu pursed his lips and smiled, secretly saying that the ninth brother is worthy of being a romantic person, and even the color head of a competition can think of using Mrs. Xiu's ornaments, which shows that he is already in control.
Izumi couldn't think of any reason to refuse, so she had to nod: "The concubine is extremely honored." As he spoke, he made a gesture to remove the bracelet from his wrist.
"Wait!" At this time, Shen Yu suddenly opened his mouth to stop: "The bracelet is fragile, if there is a bump in the competition, wouldn't it destroy Madame's beloved thing?" ”
"Oh? So do you have a better jackpot? Nie Peixiao asked him sideways.
Shen Yu was unhurried, and said lightly: "Madame carried a dagger with her today, which was very small and exquisite, and was detained by Lord Cen when she entered the garden. Weichen thought that it was better to use that dagger as a color head, and the people on the battlefield should have fought with sharp weapons. ”
As he spoke, he looked at Izumi, and his eyes suddenly revealed a scorching heat, as if there were a thousand words, which was intriguing.
Shen Yu is really still hinting at himself! An indescribable taste flowed in the bottom of Chuxiu's heart, and his heart was empty, anxious, confused, and helpless...... She wanted to avoid Shen Yu's gaze, but the other party's gaze shot straight at her, making her unable to dodge.
"Dagger?" Nie Peixiao disagreed: "The roof of the building is pitch black, and a dagger is put on it, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to find." ”
"Your Highness doesn't know," Shen Yu took his eyes off Izuxiu and explained to Nie Peixiao with a smile, "That dagger has just been seen by the general, and it is very beautiful just from a distance." There was a ruby on it that was unusually bright, and it was even more dazzling than the lady's bracelet. ”
Shen Yu explained like this, Nie Peixiao had no objection, nodded and smiled: "This is very good, this king also thinks that the dagger is more meaningful than the bracelet, what does the imperial brother think?" ”
Emperor Tianzhu glanced at Xiu and pointed out: "I am very curious about this dagger...... It turns out that Madame still has the habit of carrying a dagger with her? ”
Seeing that Shen Yu was aggressive, Emperor Tianzhu also looked like he was watching a good show, so he had to reluctantly smile: "The female guard of the concubine has been pregnant recently, and she is unable to move, so the concubine will bring a dagger to defend herself." ”
This reason is reasonable, and it is also a fact, she is saying it to Emperor Tianzhu, but secretly she is saying it to Shen Yu in disguise.
Emperor Tianzhu seemed to believe it, and turned to Nie Peixiao and said, "Since this is the case, let Cen Jiang send the dagger over." ”
Nie Peixiao immediately ordered someone to pass the word, and after a while, Cen Jiang came with a dagger in his hand and sent it straight to the Heavenly Emperor. The latter rubbed the dagger in his hand and praised: "It's really a good dagger, why do you look a little familiar?" He vaguely remembered which family heirloom it was, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
When I heard the word "familiar" said by Emperor Tianzhu, I couldn't help but "chuckle" in my heart, and hurriedly said: "This dagger was bought and given to her late husband by a friend, maybe you have seen it elsewhere before. ”
She said this, and she didn't dare to look at Shen Yu's expression.
Emperor Tianzhu didn't dwell on this matter too much, and said again: "There is still a word on this dagger?" As he spoke, he looked carefully at the shadow of the lamp: "'Deep'? What do you mean? ”
Izumi gasped when she heard this, and continued to lie in a condensed voice: "The first husband once said that this is the name of the caster. ”
After finishing speaking, Izuku suddenly felt a cold flash in front of him, and the Emperor of Heaven had taken the dagger out of its sheath and turned to look at Nie Peixiao: "Among the world's famous foundries, whose name has the word 'deep'?" ”
Nie Peixiao also seemed to be intimidated by the chill, and was stunned for a moment before replying: "As far as my brother knows, no." He thought for a moment and added, "The late master has never heard of it. ”
"This dagger should not be forged by an unknown person. If I can find this person, I would like to entrust him to reuse. Emperor Tianzhu handed the dagger to Nie Peixiao: "You and Shen Yu have a good life, don't admit your mistake." ”
Nie Peixiao respectfully accepted this thing, and praised it again before passing it to Shen Yu. The latter took the dagger and looked very calm, and raised his eyes expressionlessly: "Wechen is ready to start at any time." ”
Emperor Tianzhu hooked his lips and smiled, and said to Cen Jiang: "You send the dagger to the roof of the building, place it properly, and remember not to leak the news." ”
Cen Jiang clenched his fists and took the order, picked up the stairs from the stairs, and returned to his life after half a cup of tea: "Weichen has put the dagger away, and it is foolproof." ”
Emperor Tianzhu got up from his seat and took the lead downstairs, saying as he walked: "Qingyuanzi, tonight's play will be extremely exciting." ”
Nie Peixiao and Shen Yu followed suit, the two deliberately slowed down, and the former whispered to the latter: "I won't do my best in this competition, you have to seize the opportunity and ask the imperial brother not to pursue your unauthorized departure from Beijing." ”
Shen Yu frowned slightly, and did not reply directly, but said: "Your Highness has good intentions, and the general will be grateful." ”
Nie Peixiao patted him on the shoulder: "Izumi will follow behind, and I will act when I see the opportunity for a while." As he spoke, he quickened his pace and went downstairs.
Izumi saw that several people were walking in front, so he went downstairs with the help of his heart. sighed lightly: "I've been listening to it for so long, and I feel that everyone has something to say." ”
Izumi smiled lightly, made a "shhhhh When she walked into the garden, the people had rearranged a table of eight immortals and several chairs, and there were fruit plates, snacks, tea, etc. on the table. Emperor Tianzhu walked straight to the main seat, sat down with a golden sword, and gently tapped the table with his right index finger.
Cen Jiang immediately understood, put an incense burner in the center of the desk, and smiled at Emperor Tianzhu: "It's all ready." He took two more terrifyingly long ropes and said to Nie Peixiao and Shen Yu: "Just in case, please also ask Your Highness and General Shen to tie the ropes around your waist, and the other end will be tied to the railing on the top of the building to prevent the two of you from slipping under your feet." ”
Hearing Cen Jiang's words, Nie Peixiao and Shen Yu didn't appreciate it, and the two of them refused in unison: "No need." ”
Seeing that the two of them were full of confidence, Emperor Tianzhu smiled and said, "Then let's start." Saying that, he stretched out his hand to ask for it: "Mrs. Lao is giving orders." ”
As soon as the words fell, Cen Jiang had already taken out the fire fold and lit the incense burner, and a wisp of smoke rose into the air, and finally dissipated in the refreshing and cool night breeze. Izuxiu's hands tightened in his sleeves, and he smiled reluctantly: "A stick of incense, two of you beware." ”
As soon as the word "heart" came out, Xiuzhi felt a sassy wind in front of her, and her hair and sleeves fluttered. After looking closely, Nie Peixiao and Shen Yu had already rushed to the downstairs of the star picking, and at the same time jumped to the second floor......
