Long Qi's form became more and more light, her lips moved but she couldn't make any sound, she closed her eyes in pain, and she no longer had the strength to talk crookedly. Seeing her fluttering and about to disperse, Crooked hurriedly let her return to her body.

Before returning to his body, Long Qi muttered sadly: "Take me to see him." ”

He looked at the tears in the corners of his mother's eyes and nodded heavily.

When the palace maid heard the queen of the inner room talking to herself, she couldn't help but be afraid, and said in her heart: This king suddenly loves the queen so much for no reason, could it be that the queen used some evil magic? Thinking about the palace maid leaving the Taichen Palace, she went towards the Kunci Palace.

*

In the Kunci Palace, Chen Menglan was complaining with tears in her eyes, how Chu Yunxuan snubbed him, these days, he only drank and listened to music in her palace, and never touched her. The more Gu Lingshu listened, the more gloomy his face became. Then Chen Menglan complained that the queen went to Biyun Palace to visit Chen Yun'er today, and she didn't enter her Chonghua Palace, so she simply looked down on her.

Gu Lingshu let out a sigh: "It's not easy to deal with her, you need to think long-term." ”

While the two were talking, the palace maid crept in, first saluted Gu Lingshu and Chen Menglan, and then said to Gu Lingshu: "The Queen Mother sent the slave maid to watch the Taichen Palace, and today the slave maid found a strange thing. Then he will recite the words crookedly alone.

Gu Lingshu's eyes rolled.

Xiangyun said on the side: "There must be some evil law recorded in the wordless book, otherwise, how could she carry a sword to get it." Moreover, not long after she asked for the book back, she had a very close relationship with the king, which was very strange. ”

When Chen Menglan heard this, she couldn't help but scold: "How can this demon girl be so vicious. Auntie, you must make decisions for Lan'er. ”

Crooked An slept peacefully for a long time, no one had been so sweet for a long time, and lazily flipped over and found that there was one more person beside him. With a light smile, he raised his fingertips and scraped the bridge of his tall nose. Chu Yunxuan's eyes were closed, and his eyelashes were long and curved into a beautiful arc. Crooked thought he was asleep, but he pulled the corner of his lips and took her into his arms.

The crooked figure was delicate and petite, and it was completely wrapped in Chu Yunxuan's broad chest.

At this time, with a burst of eager footsteps, Xiao Ningzi's panicked voice came: "Master! Master!"

Xiao Ningzi shouted several times in a row, and Chu Yunxuan opened his eyelids in displeasure and sighed, "What's the matter?"

"The border military intelligence came to report, saying that our army was losing and retreating, and Blackwater City had been lost. ”

"What?" Chu Yunxuan stood up, swept out like the wind. The footsteps grew farther and farther away, and soon they were inaudible.

crooked out of bed, hurriedly tidying up his appearance, and rushed out of the inner room. As soon as the palace ladies saw her, they stopped her and said in unison, "The king has instructed you not to run around." ”

pouted crookedly, and was about to break through. The ladies of the palace persuaded, "Queen, if you go out of this gate, the king will surely punish us and others, please have mercy on us." ”

Hearing them say this, I couldn't bear it, so I had to give up. She moved a bench and sat at the temple gate, stared at it, and said to the left and right: "You go and find Chu—no, the king, tell him that I am waiting for him." ”

The war was tight, Chu Yunxuan planned to drive the expedition in person, and the ministers raised objections one after another: "The country can't be without a king for a day, if you go, who is in charge of state affairs." ”

Chu Yunxuan glanced at Gu Lingshu behind the curtain and said, "Leave it to the Queen Mother." ”

Hearing that the Queen Mother was in charge of the government, those in favor exceeded those who opposed it. A smile flashed at the corner of Gu Lingshu's lips, fleeting. She raised her voice and said: "It's good for the king to choose the virtuous ministers, why do you have to go into battle yourself." ”

"The minister's mind has been decided, and the Queen Mother doesn't need to say much. ”

"Even so, it's hard for this palace to say anything. Gu Lingshu bowed his body, "The palace will pray wholeheartedly, begging for my son to return in triumph." ”

All the ministers shouted together: "May my king live a long life, and God bless the Xuanwu Kingdom and Tai Anbang." ”

When the morning was over, it was already noon. As soon as Chu Yunxuan hurried back to the Taichen Palace, he saw from a distance crooked and obedient, waiting at the door like a little daughter-in-law, the coldness that had accumulated on his face and heart for a long time was swept away, replaced by brightness and joy.

When Crooked saw him, he ran to him. Chu Yunxuan stretched out his arms and lifted her up, spinning in the hot sun of early summer. Crooked giggled: "Put me down, I'm dizzy." ”

Chu Yunxuan put her down, and she said, "How is the war, is there anything wrong with Long Tianlin?"

Chu Yunxuan's expression froze: "Why do you care so much about Long Tianlin, you ...... with him"

patted Chu Yunxuan's chest crookedly: "Tianlin is also my brother, of course I care." ”

Only then did Chu Yunxuan show his face: "Oh, the specific situation is still unclear, so I want to personally go to supervise the battle." ”

Crooked grabbed his hand: "You're going, that's with me, with me." ”

Chu Yunxuan shook his head and brushed the hair on his forehead for her: "No, the sword has no eyes, it will hurt you." ”

No matter what he said, Chu Yunxuan disagreed. Chu Yunxuan dispatched half of the Eastern Navy and the Western Territory Army, 500 Praetorian Guards, and 5,000 defenders of the capital Ji'an, a total of 50,000 people to the Heishui River.

In these days of preparing for departure, Chu Yunxuan came to Taichen Hall as soon as he had time. The other second houses stretched their necks, and they couldn't look forward to him.

Taifu Mansion

Chen Guodong was on pins and needles, he couldn't let Chu Yunxuan go over with reinforcements. King Wei promised him that as soon as Ji'an was captured, he would be the new King of Xuanwu. He had waited too long, until his temples were gray, and he could not sit down.

The next day, Chen Menglan invited Chu Yunxuan to Chonghua Palace and held a banquet to see him off. Chu Yunxuan wanted to refuse, but he couldn't find a suitable excuse, so he had to go. In order to prevent displeasure, I didn't tell her.

As soon as Chu Yunxuan stepped into Chonghua Palace, the palace gate was closed again, and the room was full of fragrant fragrance, refreshing people's hearts. Chu Yunxuan's eyes were half-squinted, his eyes reflected Chen Menglan's fair and smooth beauty, his thin shirt was lightly caged, and his waist moved, walking towards him.

Chen Menglan decided to let it go, the eldest princess taught her the art of bed flutes three years ago, it depends on today.

Chen Menglan put her delicate body on Chu Yunxuan's body, and Lan panted slightly: "Your Majesty, the concubines are waiting for you so hard." Fingertips moved up and down Chu Yunxuan's belt.

Chu Yunxuan grabbed her hand and stopped her teasing, but Chen Menglan spun around and pulled his hand to put herself in his arms. Press his hand against the front peak where he stands. Chu Yunxuan was like an electric shock, he suddenly withdrew his hand, pushed her away, and whispered, "What is Concubine Lan doing?"

Chen Menglan's cheeks were crimson, and her eyebrows were swirling: "Your Majesty, don't you want a concubine?"

"At the moment of the great enemy, this king does not have that kind of mind. Chu Yunxuan turned around and walked towards the door.

Chen Menglan threw herself behind him and wrapped her hands around him tightly: "Your Majesty, the concubines are looking forward to it day and night, so you can pity the poor concubines." ”

Chu Yunxuan was stunned, sometimes he would feel if he was too cruel to welcome such a flower-like girl into the door, but let them stay alone in the empty room. The Queen Mother Gu Lingshu also reminded him more than once that he should be wet with rain and dew and spread as soon as possible.

When he was stunned, Chen Menglan's soft hand had slowly descended.

Chu Yunxuan's posture trembled slightly, he was at the age of eighteen years old, how difficult it was for him to hold himself.

Crooked was still thinking about where Chu Yunxuan went, so he heard the palace people whispering that he went to Chonghua Palace to find Concubine Lan. She went back to the house in a huff, and lay down on the bed, tossing and turning in a very hot and hot place, and her heart tingled under the churning of blood and blood. The pain was getting stronger and stronger, and I felt like my body was about to tear apart.

Could it be that this is the so-called pain that does not want to live?

When Chu Yunxuan came back, the crooked pain had eased a lot. His fiery body leaned over and hugged her from behind. Hands moved beneath him, accompanied by strange gasps. Crooked will wake up from sleep, and turn his head in a daze: "What are you doing?"

Chu Yunxuan turned her face back and snorted with difficulty: "Don't look." ”

Chu Yunxuan's hand movements became faster and faster, faster and faster, and suddenly he let out a long breath, as if he had exhausted all his energy, and the whole person fell on her.

Crooked and puzzled: "Aren't you sick! Don't think that I will let you go if you pretend to be sick, what are you doing in Chonghua Palace?"

Chu Yunxuan lightly kissed the back of the girl's neck: "Do you know that the way you look angry is very cute, because it is too cute, it will make my body sad." ”

"Why?" Turning crookedly, her eyes glaring at him with a charming eye.

Chu Yunxuan smiled bitterly: "It's been three years, and you still don't know who you are." Hey, I don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky. ”

Crooked and innocently said: "I don't know, you can teach me well, my learning ability is strong, and I can memorize all the exercises of the Long family at one time." ”

Chu Yunxuan twisted her chin, imprinted a kiss on her lips, and then rolled over: "It seems that I have to go out to blow the wind, otherwise I will either suffocate to death, or you will die of pain." ”

Chu Yunxuan got up, and when he saw a puddle of liquid appear in the place where he had just stayed. Drinking him unconsciously, "Are you bleeding?"

Chu Yunxuan's face was embarrassed, he said no, and left in a hurry. After he left, Crooked quickly fell asleep, and when she woke up, she realized that something big had happened. Assassins came to the palace, and the Praetorian Guards on night fought hard to escort them, killing and wounding more than a dozen people. The queen mother, who was awakened, hurried over, blocked a sword for the king, and was stabbed in the flank. And Chu Yunxuan's left shoulder was cut through a cut.

When Crooked rushed to the Qiantian Palace, Chen Menglan and Chen Yun'er were already there. Chen Yun'er winked crookedly, but Chen Menglan ignored her and didn't want to look at her. Crookedly nodded to Chen Yun'er, squeezed through the crowd of palace people to the front, poked his head out and said, "Chu-Wang, how are you?" ”

The voice was so well-behaved that Chu Yunxuan was startled for a moment, and he raised the corners of his lips and hooked his hand dotingly: "It's okay." ”

Crooked trotted over, sat on his lap, and chattered like a lark.

This scene pierced the hearts of both women at the same time.

Chu Yunxuan waved his hand at them: "You all go down, this king is no longer in trouble." ”

Chen Menglan stomped her foot angrily and turned to leave. Chen Yun'er stopped her back, tried her best to maintain her due demeanor, bowed delicately, and said, "Your Majesty, the queen, the concubines will retire first." ”

Chu Yunxuan nodded at her.

Everyone retreated, and unstably opened Chu Yunxuan's clothes with crooked and restless hands, checking his injuries: "Look, you are all injured, why don't you take me with you, I can help you." ”
