Chapter Twenty-Six: The Moonlight Is Beautiful

When Zhao Yan raised her head slightly and looked at him with a pair of sparkling eyes, Gu Xu only felt that it was difficult for him to refuse her request.

"Absolutely." He pondered for a moment, then responded.

Zhao Yan smiled, threw the long sword into the storage magic weapon, and reached out and pulled his sleeve: "You went to the Fire God Temple today, right?" ”

"That's right."

"Have you seen that old guy named Chongli?"

"Hmm." Gu Xu nodded.

"What did he tell you? Did you mention me in front of you? ”

"He wants me to persuade you to agree to Zhao Yu's proposal."

"Sure enough, it's the same as I guessed," Zhao Yan sighed lightly, "This old guy has been nagging about pure blood all day long, like a farmer who breeds pigs." ”

Hearing her analogy, Gu Xu couldn't help laughing.

"Are you in a hurry to go back to cultivation now?" Zhao Yan was silent for a moment, and then said, "If you're not in a hurry, have a drink with me." ”

"You know, I'm not in good health, I can't drink."

"Then you drink tea, and I drink. After I inherit this country, I am afraid it will be difficult to have a chance to indulge again. ”

"Okay then."

In the past, in the face of great temptation, Gu Xu would insist on practicing all night every day, and would not relax easily.

But today, he has gained the power of faith that he has accumulated for many years from the altar of the god of fire.

He doesn't lack the true element now, only the method of breaking the realm.

And the Dharma is not a thing that relies on closed-door penance, but an epiphany that goes with the flow.

So, after hesitating for a moment, he agreed to Zhao Yan's request.

This young woman, who will soon become the monarch of this country, has a heavy responsibility on her shoulders - one can imagine that she must be under tremendous pressure at the moment.

"Autumn geese, tea!"

Hearing Gu Xu's reply, Zhao Yan immediately commanded the maid in the corner of the wall.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Qiu Yan got up from the side of the guqin and ran briskly towards the table on the other side of the house.

It turned out that the sonorous and powerful side piano song just now was played by this inconspicuous little girl.

Then, Zhao Yan led Gu Xu to a bamboo mat by the window, and the two sat side by side.

Through the windows here, you can take in the scenery of the back garden of the palace, and when you look up, you can see the rising silvery moon.

The Zhao family seems to be fond of liquor.

When the flask was served, the smell of the wine quickly overshadowed the aroma of the tea and filled the room.

Zhao Yan picked up the wine jug, looked at the moonlight sprinkled on the green bricks through the withered window, and whispered: "The moonlight tonight is so beautiful." ”

Gu Xu was stunned for a moment.

However, he quickly reacted that in this world, there is no such thing as "the moonlight is so beautiful" equals "I love you".

Zhao Yan should just be admiring the scenery outside the window.

"yes." He responded.

Zhao Yan chuckled lightly, and in a rather heroic gesture, she poured a large sip of liquor into her mouth.

Her fair cheeks soon flushed, as bright as the sunset on the horizon.

However, Zhao Yan's alcohol consumption seems to be far less than that of her father.

Half a pot of wine was down, her eyes had lost focus, her gaze became blurred, and her body became soft.

[Immortality begins with slaying demons] 【】

She shook her head a few times, then tilted to the side and leaned on Gu Xu's shoulder.

Gu Xu sat quietly in place, motionless.

He thought that Zhao Yan had encountered too many changes in her life recently, and she really needed to rest for a while.

At this moment, Zhao Yan's beautiful face that seemed to be a fairy but not a fairy, like a demon but not a demon, was close to him, her long and dense eyelashes trembled slightly, her ruddy lips spit out lightly, and the faint fragrance on her body came in bursts.

Further down, through her slightly open collar, you can glimpse the majestic snow-capped mountains and narrow and deep ravines.

Gu Xu immediately moved his gaze out the window, not daring to continue looking.

But the two were too close to each other, and the soft touch and warm body temperature were all transmitted through the silk clothes.

Gu Xu must admit that getting along with Zhao Yan and getting along with Shi Xiaohan are two completely different feelings.

Shi Xiaohan is petite and slender, her mind is as simple as a child, it is difficult for people to have evil thoughts, and she only wants to take care of her in the palm of her hand.

Zhao Yan, who has long breasts and thighs and a figure comparable to a model, is a goblin who charms all beings - as long as she is not in a state of fighting, she exudes a strong hormonal atmosphere all the time.

Gu Xu silently recited the "Heart Purification Mantra" twice, trying to keep himself calm, and then began to think about the improvement of the exercises, the power of incense, and the deception of soaring......

About an hour later, Zhao Yan finally woke up leisurely.

She first touched her head, straightened her slightly messy sideburns, and said, "It's so hard." ”

Then she turned her head and looked at Gu Xu: "You are too thin, it hurts my head so much, I have to find a way to make you gain some weight." ”

Gu Xu shrugged.

He couldn't help but say, your head is too heavy, and it makes my shoulders sore.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe it's time for me to go back." ”

"Go back so early?" Zhao Yandai frowned slightly, "You still have more than half a cup of tea left!" ”

"I really have to go back," Gu Xu stood up with a swish, "I have comprehended a lot of things in the Fire God Temple today. I'll have to go back and digest it. ”

"A genius like you still needs to take time to digest knowledge?" Zhao Yan clasped her arms around her chest and squinted at him, "I thought you could understand it at a glance." ”

"Your Highness really overestimated me."

After Gu Xu left this sentence, he hurried away from this incense-filled room like a rabbit.

He felt that if he continued to stay here, he would not be able to control himself.

Zhao Yan sat on the mat, looked at his back of "running away", and shook his head gently.

"What a piece of wood." She snorted.

Although Zhao Yan has never had experience in love, she often haunts the Qinglou Dance Workshop, from which she has learned a lot of routines for dealing with men.

The literati, dignitaries and dignitaries of the Great Qi Dynasty all liked to be vassals and elegant.

They are not like ordinary people who go to the kiln, and as soon as they meet, they will dry the firewood and get straight to the topic.

When they come to Qinglou, they all like to listen to a few piano songs, watch a few songs and dances, chant a few poems, and then pair them with some wine, and when they are slightly drunk, they enter the great harmony of life in the middle of pushing and halfing.

[Immortality begins with slaying demons] 【】

Zhao Yan grew up on horseback since she was a child, and she didn't like the glamorous sound and enchanting dance, so she chose the sassy and neat sword dance.

She was not good at reciting poems, so she dragged Gu Xu to the window to watch the moon.

Her alcohol consumption is actually not bad at all, and the drunkenness just now is completely fake.

However, Gu Xu, the wood, seemed to be unmoved at all.

Not to mention doing anything else, he didn't even want to reach out and hug her.

"Could it be that he just likes short, skinny, immature little girls?"

Zhao Yan lowered her head and looked at her full chest, only to feel that it was too difficult for her to pretend to be tender.

…………

Meanwhile.

When Gu Xu accompanied Zhao Yan to drink and admire the moon by the window, Zhao Changying's younger brother Zhao Changqi and his son Zhao Yu were having a secret conversation in the dim candlelight.

"Zhao Yan has returned to Jicheng."

"In addition to herself, she was accompanied by a masked, unidentified guest."

"This man caused an alarming commotion in the Fire Temple. Chongli seems to have obeyed him. ”

"Zhao Yan seems to have a very close relationship with him. She allowed the man to grab her arm. ”

"Zhao Changying also summoned this person and talked with him in the house for a long time."

"Father, who do you think this man is?" Zhao Yu squinted slightly, looking at his father sitting across the table.

"If nothing else, it should be the fugitive who is wanted by the whole country of the Great Qi Imperial Court - Gu Xu," Zhao Changqi thought for a moment and responded, "Princess Zhaoning once secretly wrote to me, claiming that Gu Xu would definitely flee in the direction of Dayan in order to seek Zhao Changying's refuge.

"In addition, I also learned from the intelligence that on the day of the 'Luoshui Conference', Gu Xu stayed with Zhao Yan for a long time.

"The two of them should have a good relationship. Gu Xu was able to escape from the territory of Daqi smoothly, most likely with the help of Zhao Yan. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu took a deep breath, clenched his fists and said, "Father, do you say that there will be adultery between the two of them?" ”

"I'm also worried about this," Zhao Changqi sighed, "Now, the succession order of our father and son in Dayan is exactly behind Zhao Yan.

"If you marry Zhao Yan, then your heir will become the new heir.

"If Zhao Yan still insists on not marrying and having children for life as before, then after her death, Dayan's crown will also fall on your heads and me.

"Of course, as the Zhao family, we have all followed the ancestral teachings and made an oath in front of the altar of the Fire God that blood relatives of the same clan will not kill each other, and we can't let Zhao Yan go to see Lord Yama in advance.

"However, if she still doesn't know her, we can use Daqi's knife to get rid of her.

"Crowns and beauties, you must get one of them."

Zhao Yu smiled and nodded, deeply agreeing with his father's words.

"But," Zhao Changqi paused at this point, and changed his words, "Once Zhao Yan chooses that kid named 'Gu Xu' and makes him the prince of Dayan, then we will be in an extremely passive situation."

"The child born to the two of them will replace us and become the first in order of heir to Dayan in the future. Our vein will be farther and farther away from the center of power in Dayan.

In addition, Chongli bowed to Gu Xu and obeyed his orders. The alliance we have established with Chongli in the past will also be severed.

I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend a book-chasing app,! It's really easy to use, driving, before going to bed rely on this reading aloud to pass the time, you can download it here.. 】

"From now on, Gu Xu will hold the royal power and religious power of Dayan, the people will bow to him, and Zhao Yan will give him full support - when that time comes, I don't know whether the country is surnamed Gu or Zhao."

Zhao Yu's expression was calm at first.

But when his father began to seriously analyze the disadvantages of "Gu Xu and Zhao Yan becoming husband and wife", his face gradually turned iron-blue, and his teeth creaked.

Zhao Yu was not as keen on power as his father.

In fact, he felt that ruling the country was a very troublesome thing, and he needed to review documents and understand the national situation all day long, and he needed to spend a lot of brains to distinguish between loyalty and treachery, and judge the truth and falsehood.

Where is the pleasure of drinking?

He just didn't like to see that his cousin, who was originally planning to marry him, would actually like someone else.

When he was still young, he already regarded this cousin, who was just beginning to show her beauty, as his own personal property.

One of his favorite things to do is to bully her and scare her in every way, and see her crying but without the power to resist.

Later, as Zhao Yan gradually became a big beauty, Zhao Yu's desire to get her became even stronger, and the ideas in his head were even dirtier than the toilet.

In particular, he recently learned to use some fresh "torture tools" in the kiln, and he often laughed out loud with excitement while fantasizing like a psychopath.

The women in the kiln, shackled to their ankles, red marks on their snowy skin, and tears in their eyes, knelt down in front of him and begged for mercy.

If their faces were replaced with Zhao Yan's face of a shy flower in the closed moon, what a wonderful picture it would be!

Although he can't beat Zhao Yan now.

But Zhao Yu firmly believes that after marrying Zhao Yan, she will definitely listen to her words obediently like other women who obey her husband.

"So what should I do?" In case of indecision, Zhao Yu decisively asked his father, "We must not let Zhao Yan marry Gu Xu." ”

"It's very simple," Zhao Changqi thought for a moment and replied, "We still have to use the power of Great Qi - we will inform Princess Zhaoning of Gu Xu's whereabouts." Princess Zhaoning will send someone to deal with him. ”

"But my uncle is a veritable 'True Monarch' powerhouse," Zhao Yu shook his legs uneasily in the seat, "If my uncle is determined to protect Gu Xu, then it should be difficult for the people sent by Princess Zhaoning to deal with him." ”

"If the person the Great Qi Imperial Court wants to kill is Zhao Yan, then Zhao Changying will have to find ways to save her even if he fights for his own life," Zhao Changqi showed a meaningful smile on his face, "But Gu Xu is just an outsider who is not related to him."

"In this stormy Great Yan Country, maybe as long as Princess Zhaoning promised him some favorable conditions, such as recognizing the independence of Great Yan and guaranteeing ten years of peace between Yan and Qi, he would hand over Gu Xu to the Great Qi Imperial Court.

"After all, this is about his daughter's future stability!"

"Do as you say, father!" Zhao Yumeng slapped his thigh. After hearing his father's solution, his mood suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

…………

After the discussion, Zhao Yu left the secret room and came to the courtyard of the mansion.

The icy moonlight poured on the ground, making the atmosphere in the courtyard cold and cold.

"Meow-"

Suddenly, the silence of the night was broken by a few whispering cat meows.

Zhao Yu frowned, revealing an irritated expression.

"Jade Mandarin?"

"Young master, I'm here."

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old maid hurriedly came from the house, knelt down in front of Zhao Yu with a "poof", lowered her head, and didn't dare to look into his eyes.

The maid wore a translucent thin silk dress.

Through her clothes, you can see her still green body, as well as obvious bruises on her skin.

"The reality of these cat meows is disturbing." Zhao Yu said.

"The young master is angry, the slave and maid will go and drive them away-"

"-Idiot," Zhao Yu kicked her in the abdomen, "what if you drove them away today, and they come again tomorrow?" ”

"That'...... Then young master, what do you think I should do? The maid Yuyuan had tears in her eyes, and her voice trembled slightly, obviously Zhao Yu's kick hurt her. But she didn't dare to reach out to cover her stomach, let alone hum.

"Go get some food, put some poison in it, and sprinkle it in the yard. The wild cats that no one wants, they are hungry. ”

"Yes, young master."
