Chapter 41: The Guardian (Pink 780+)

After Old Man Zhou finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the quiet room.

It was an ashram that could be used as a secret room.

Zhou Huaixuan walked in.

The door to the ashram closed silently, and there was no room to be seen from the outside.

Old Man Zhou sat down behind the chess table, looked fixedly at the chessboard carved horizontally and vertically on the chess table, smiled, grabbed a chess piece with his hand, and asked, "Why don't you play a game of chess first?" ”

Zhou Huaixuan sat down in front of him and shook his head, "Say it quickly." ”

"You kid!" Old Man Zhou scolded with a smile, and reluctantly put the chess pieces back into the chess box, "You actually talked to your grandfather like this." ”

Zhou Huaixuan looked at Old Man Zhou quietly, his deep dark eyes were as calm as a deep pool.

"The secret that only the Duke of Guo knows about passed down from our Divine General's Mansion is related to the double pupil diagram at the highest point of the Cloud Pavilion of the Imperial Palace." Old Man Zhou said solemnly, "You are not a prince of the country now, so I can't tell you all the secrets, I can only mention it to you." ”

Zhou Huaixuan bowed slightly, "If grandfather thinks it's inappropriate, you don't need to say it." ”

"It's not inappropriate." Old Man Zhou sighed, "If Siyan is already pregnant, I can tell you everything." ”

Zhou Huaixuan frowned slightly, "What does it have to do with her?" ”

"It's not that it has anything to do with her, but you need to have an heir...... Old Man Zhou glanced at Zhou Huaixuan again, "Siyan has been in the door for more than half a year, you can't snub her too much." ”

Rao is Zhou Huaixuan was extremely calm, and when he heard Old Man Zhou's words, his face was still slightly red, and he picked up the teacup and took a sip in disguise. Turning his eyes away. said lightly: "Ah Yan is still ...... young"

"Small? Do you know that people are still young? Then why didn't you care about marrying someone back in the first place? Can't wait a day?! Old Man Zhou blew his beard and glared at Zhou Huaixuan, so he almost took out a cigarette pot and knocked him on the head twice, "I thought you were ...... You've got my great-grandchildren! ”

Make him empty and rejoice!

The corners of Zhou Huaixuan's eyes couldn't stop jumping, and there was already anger gathering on his face.

Old Man Zhou saw that he was about to be angry, so he hurriedly got back to business and changed the subject: "...... The double pupil diagram at the highest point of the Cloud Pavilion of the Imperial Palace is the secret treasure of the royal family of the previous dynasty. ”

Zhou Huaixuan's face suddenly became solemn.

"The royal family of the previous dynasty went against the grain, and Great Xia took its place. Everything from the previous dynasty was destroyed. Only this heavy pupil picture was solemnly enshrined in the highest place of the Cloud Pavilion by the founding emperor of Great Xia, Emperor Xia Yundi, and told the descendants that this picture should not be taken away from the Cloud Pavilion, and also made a heavy oath: The picture is in Great Xia, and the picture is dead in Great Xia. ”

"Emperor Xia Yun, the founding emperor, personally created a group of the most secretive people. Their name is The Guardian. ”

"Guardians?"

"Yes. They are named after the colors of the rainbow, which has seven colors and Guardians seven. It was passed down from generation to generation, and there were seven people in each generation. It is pronounced by seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. ”

"Who are they? How is it passed down from generation to generation? Zhou Huaixuan asked intently, very focused.

Old Man Zhou rarely saw Zhou Huaixuan so interested. "Their identities are secret, and even they don't even know who each other is." I don't know how they pass it on. ”

"Their main purpose is to prevent the prince of the Great Xia royal family from marrying the girls of the Four Great Princes to combine and give birth to descendants."

Zhou Huaixuan's heart was shocked, and his face was still calm and indifferent, "Are you worried that once the Four Great Powers Mansion has the opportunity to become a descendant, it will have thoughts that it shouldn't have?" ”

From the beginning of the founding of the Great Xia, the Four Great Princes stood at the peak of the Great Xia Dynasty together with the Great Xia royal family, and their influence and power were not comparable to other families.

From the perspective of court and politics, this kind of ancestral training that does not allow girls from the four major princes to enter the palace as queens and concubines does objectively eliminate the possibility of descendants sitting big and threatening the imperial power.

"yes." Old Man Zhou nodded slightly, "I thought so when I was young. He smiled, stroked his beard and said, "But later, my father, that is, your great-grandfather, told me the true purpose of this ancestral precept before an expedition. ”

Zhou Huaixuan raised his eyes to look at Old Man Zhou, a little uncertain in his heart.

"To be precise, the so-called political considerations of the DPRK are just a faΓ§ade. Its real purpose is to prevent the birth of those who can save the fallen. After Old Man Zhou finished speaking, he moved his gaze to the chessboard.

Although Zhou Huaixuan was a little prepared, he suddenly got confirmation from Old Man Zhou that this shock was like being hit hard in his ear with a large gong weighing thousands of catties, which made him in a trance and lose his mind for a moment.

However, he quickly came back to his senses, his eyes were sharp, he looked at Old Man Zhou, and asked in a dumb voice, "...... Who else knows the real purpose of this? ”

In the depths of his eyes, there was a bloodthirsty dark red, and the whole person was extremely slaughtered.

It was a ruthless and lonely courage that came out of the sea of corpses and blood, and it was a desperate gamble of "although there are tens of millions of people, I will go......

At this moment, he just wanted to kill an outsider who knew the secret.

Old Man Zhou looked at him quietly for a while, reached out and patted the back of his hand gently, and said indifferently: "Don't worry." This true purpose is known only to the princes of our Divine General's Mansion. ”

Zhou Huaixuan was a little stunned, "...... Not all the princes know? I don't know? ”

Old Man Zhou shook his head, "Only our Divine General's Mansion has always had to fight against the fallen people, so only we know this secret." After a pause, he added, "Your father doesn't know." He is not the son of the world. ”

"Then what do the other three princes and His Majesty know?" Zhou Huaixuan asked lightly.

"The current Sheng Guogong doesn't know anything anymore." Old Man Zhou smiled, "Of course, they have bloodstones, so it doesn't matter if they know it or not." Bloodstone will tell them the truth. ”

Zhou Huaixuan lowered his eyes and looked at a lone white chess piece on the chessboard.

"Zheng Guogong and Wu Guogong know more about the previous dynasty." Old Man Zhou said meaningfully, "And now your majesty, you shouldn't know much." The inheritance of the secrets of the royal family has been severed between the former emperor and the present. If Imagami is lucky, the Guardian will put the royal inheritance in his hands. ”

Zhou Huaixuan was stunned, "Guardian...... Is it a member of the royal family? ”

"The Guardian was created by Emperor Xia Yun, the founding emperor of Great Britain. Of course, he is the one who guards the ultimate interests of the Great Xia royal family. The day they become guardians. A blood oath has been taken. Once the oath is broken. They will die. Old Man Zhou said in a deep voice, "As for where the guardian is, I don't know anything. I heard that they can be anyone, a hawker on the street, or an official of the Six Ministries, or even a person from the state government or a member of the clan. ”

Zhou Huaixuan thought silently and asked slowly: "The guardian is the one who guards the ultimate interests of the Great Xia royal family. And their true mission. It is also to prevent the birth of those who can save the degenerate. In this way, the fallen people are contrary to the ultimate interests of the Great Xia royal family. ――Why is that? ”

Old Man Zhou smiled, "I don't know. It's useless for you to ask me. ”

Zhou Huaixuan silently relived what Old Man Zhou said in his mind, and said, "For a thousand years, there have been only seven people guarding it? ――Too little......"

"The main force is seven people, and of course there are more than seven people who really do things for them." Old Man Zhou said disappreciatively, "It's just that the people who do things for them may not know who their master is." ”

That's pretty much it.

Zhou Huaixuan looked at the hard kraft note in front of him, "What do you say have to do with this note?" ”

"The identity of the Guardian. It is made of hard kraft paper of the same texture. When Old Man Zhou said this, his eyes darkened. I took a bite of the tea, which was already a little cold.

Zhou Huaixuan twisted the hard kraft note again, and said, "I see." They have been passed down from generation to generation, and they use this identity to identify each other. ”

Otherwise, if you don't even know the appearance and voice of the other party, how can you know that they are accomplices?

Old Man Zhou didn't speak again, holding the teacup as if he was stuck in a long memory.

Zhou Huaixuan stood up, "Grandfather, I want to take Ah Yan to the northwest." ”

Old Man Zhou looked up at him, "You want to take her to ......?" ”

Zhou Huaixuan nodded, "Now that the wind in the capital is not quite right, it is better to take her away first." ”

"It's fine. The sky is high and the earth is far away, and the people here can't reach it. Old Man Zhou nodded, "But you can't just leave, you have to make a mistake." ”

It would be even worse if others knew that he took Sheng Siyan to the Northwest Fallen People's Settlement.

Zhou Huaixuan raised his eyebrows, "I'll take her to live in Zhuangzi for a while." "When they go to Zhuangzi, it's better to disguise themselves and go on the road.

"Arrange it yourself." Old Man Zhou stretched, "Don't be too abrupt." ”

Zhou Huaixuan nodded lightly, left Old Man Zhou's outer study, and went back to his outer study to sit silently for a while.

It wasn't until it was getting dark outside and the people in the courtyard began to hold the lights that Zhou Huaixuan made up his mind.

"White." He called outside.

Zhou Xianbai hurriedly walked in, "What do you want from the eldest prince?" ”

Zhou Huaixuan propped his right elbow on the table, his right hand was on his delicate chin, and he said contemplatively: "Prepare the people, I will take Ah Yan out of the house in two days." ”

Zhou Xianbai perked up, "Where is the eldest prince going?" ”

"Northwest." Zhou Huaixuan raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Xianbai with a smile, "But before you go, you have to plan and plan." ”

Zhou Xianbai understood, "The eldest prince ...... even if he orders"

Zhou Huaixuan lightly commanded a few words, and then got up and went back to the inner courtyard.

It's already dinner time, and they're going to Songtao Garden for dinner.

Zhou Huaixuan returned to Qingyuan Hall and saw that the thin white lanterns like epiphany in the corridor in front of the hall were lit up, illuminating the courtyard as if it were day.

Sheng Siyan stood alone on the cloister, holding on to the railing of the cloister and waiting.

When he saw him come in, he flew down the cloister like a bird and threw himself into his arms, "Huaixuan! ”

There was a sweet smile in her voice, and Zhou Huaixuan couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips slightly, and gave her a warm smile.

He took her hand and led her up the steps.
