Chapter 8: Emperor Xuanwu

"Hmph, come in with the miscellaneous family. The eunuch pursed his mouth and stepped up the stone steps first, but when he turned his head, he saw Twelve stunned in place, thinking to himself, he was really an idiot who had never seen the world.

Twelve wiped away the shock in his eyes, lowered his eyes and followed, the door of the pear carved bird was gently pushed open by the eunuch, with a creak, and the twelve walked in with his robe against the light, his steps were extremely slow, but each step was extremely steady.

There is a stream of sandalwood in the imperial study, the green dragon tripod is smoking curlingly, a row of huge wooden cabinets on the left side stands neatly against the wall, and on the right side is the hanging jade bead curtain, which is the emperor's lunch rest, and a goose-yellow veil is hung in the center, behind a dark red long case, the Xuanwu Emperor wearing a dragon robe is lying on the desk and criticizing the folding.

The footsteps grew louder and louder in his ears, but he didn't seem to hear them, he didn't look up, he didn't make a sound, as if there were no twelve people in the room.

He did it on purpose! Twelve snorted coldly in his heart, wanting to give her a dismount? It also depends on whether she is willing to accept it!

Twelve people walked aside, focused on the calligraphy and painting on the wall, the huge imperial study, so quiet that the needle can be heard, one has no distractions to review the folds, and the other calmly appreciates the calligraphy and painting.

The hourglass was falling with grains of sand, and Emperor Xuanwu finally gave in first, threw the brush aside, and raised his head to stare at the silhouette of Twelve.

This is the legendary Sima Ruyi, an idiot who can't be vindictive, and his brain is chaotic?

Emperor Xuanwu really wanted to let those who misspread rumors die, how can an idiot have such a calm spirit?

Originally, he didn't believe that his favorite son would be humiliated by a waste on the street, but now, he believed a little in his heart, this person is by no means easy to get along with, but he is afraid that he is also a ruthless person.

I have to say that Emperor Xuanwu's eyes are really sharp, and with only a few understatements, he saw through twelve by three or four points.

"Are you Sima Ruyi? Don't you know how to greet me when you see me?" Emperor Xuanwu asked coldly, leaning lightly on the dragon chair, a pair of restrained and narrow eagle eyes, sharply swept towards Twelve, the natural kingly spirit, in this silent room, the air seemed to be frozen in an instant, if it was someone else, I was afraid that my legs would have been weak and kneeling on the ground, but Twelve didn't even change his face, just turned his eyes lightly and looked at Emperor Xuanwu.

The eyes are as cold as the moon, as deep as an abyss.

"Sima Ruyi see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live. She didn't kneel, she just simply clenched her fists, and there seemed to be a hint of irony in her words, and Emperor Xuanwu immediately frowned: "Why don't you kneel?"

When he sees the saint today, who dares to look directly at the face of the Son of Heaven? Who dares to straighten his back and refuse to bend his knees?

Twelve chuckled, but his smile was mixed with coldness: "I, Sima Ruyi, don't kneel to the sky or the ground, I only kneel to the person who should kneel." ”

Who said that only a man has gold under his knees? Is her knee more than a thousand gold? Let her kneel, is he worthy?

This emperor wants to ask the teacher for guilt, so she will send another presumptuous and presumptuous name to see what he wants!

Twelve was born with a backbone, unruly, let alone an emperor, even if it is the king of heaven, if he wants her to bend her knees, it will never be possible!

"You're so daring. Emperor Xuanwu narrowed his sharp eyes, and his gaze stabbed at Twelve coldly, "Beat King Rui on the street, humiliate the reputation of my royal family, and see that I refuse to bow down, Sima Ruyi, do you want to die?"

Die?

Twelve smiled disdainfully, she looked at Emperor Xuanwu's cold eyes frankly, fearless: "It is a crime to beat King Rui, but now it is just one more, what is Sima Ruyi to fear?

She still thought that King Rui had any ability, but she didn't expect that this Sima Ruyi's vision was nothing more than that, and he actually fell in love with such a wreck, and he couldn't beat her, so he asked the emperor to help him support him?

Emperor Xuanwu looked at the twelve, half loud, and suddenly grinned, the frost on his face receded, and he was as kind as an elegant elder: "Not bad, not humble, not arrogant, not bowing to power, okay, I haven't seen a person as proud as you for many years, okay!"

Twelve's face was full of astonishment, what is it, this emperor changed his face too quickly, right? Didn't he still look like he was going to kill her just now, why did he smile like a spring breeze in the next second?

Sure enough, the thoughts of the superior can't be guessed, and they can't be guessed.

"Don't be so nervous, I won't eat you. Emperor Xuanwu hahadaxiao, waving his hand to signal Twelve to relax, "King Rui has been spoiled by me and his mother since he was a child, and his personality is pampered and perverse, this time he has been tossed by you like this, and he may be able to restrain a lot, but," as soon as the words changed, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Twelve with interest: "This beating of the royal family is always a big crime, if I don't punish you, how can I convince the public?"

Give a sweet date first and then a slap? Want to make her grateful? Want her to bow down and admit her mistakes? Twelve snorted lightly, hugged his fists and said: "If the emperor wants to punish me, you can make it clear that there is no need to do so much foreshadowing. "It's not about punishing her, it's nonsense.

Emperor Xuanwu was choked by the twelve-eleven, and said with a sneer: "Little girl, it's not a good thing to show your edge." ”

"I'm already an ancestor, can't I speak my heart before I die?" Do you want to leave a belly of words to Lord Yama?" Twelve sneered, when she came, she was ready to tear her face with the royal family, the second order of fighting spirit, if you want to kill in the palace, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky, but she is going to die left and right, why don't she speak freely? Die, she also has to die happily!

"Who said I was going to kill you?" Emperor Xuanwu was stunned for a moment and asked.

Twelve was stunned: "Don't you want to support King Rui? I humiliated the reputation of the royal family and beheaded me for the crime, and the emperor will be able to obey the public." ”

Did she guess wrong?

"Haha, how can I be such a murderous person? Come on, little girl, tell me, why do you want to do it to King Rui?" Emperor Xuanwu looked up and daxiao, he had never seen anyone so unreasonable to him, talking to him as an equal, interesting, really interesting.

Twelve innocently shrugged his shoulders: "It's nothing, King Rui tried to tease the girl of a good family, of course I have to resist to the death, who knew that King Rui was so unbeaten." ”

Emperor Xuanwu almost laughed, "You are a girl from a good family, a woman who dares to beat the prince? ”

Conscience? How much is that kind of thing worth?

Twelve narrowed his eyes and said coolly: "If I don't fight back, I deserve to be played by King Rui?" King Rui did such a thing that damaged the prestige of the royal family, I, as a common person, should naturally take care of it, and if the emperor wants to punish him for this, Ruyi can only admit it." ”

From the initial pretense of appointment, to this time in a few words and clever justification, twelve is just to survive, she does things, always premeditating the worst results, seeing the needle to reverse the situation, if she really meets a domineering and unreasonable emperor, it is a big deal.

But fortunately, the emperor is not mediocre, and he seems to be a reasonable person.

The thought in Twelve's heart turned a few times, but his face did not show half a point.

"I heard that Miss Sima Er was born to be a waste of fighting spirit, how did you defeat King Rui?" Emperor Xuanwu finally got to the point, his son, who grew up in countless elixirs since he was a child, although he didn't dare to say that he was the best among the younger generation, he could deal with the third and fourth order martial artists, which was more than enough, and Sima Ruyi had the name of waste, and he was able to defeat his son, which made Emperor Xuanwu, who had been looking for a master and was ready to participate in the Four Kingdoms Competition, happy.

If she has been enduring humiliation and condensing her strength all these years, then this woman will definitely be extraordinary in the future! If she can make friends and let her return to the imperial court with peace of mind, the benefits will definitely outweigh the disadvantages for the Xuanwu Kingdom.

As for the unruly attitude of the twelve, Emperor Xuanwu only regarded him as a genius and had arrogance.

The atmosphere was as if from the spring of March to the severe frost and winter, and the twelve squinted dangerously, this is the purpose of Emperor Xuanwu calling her into the palace.

However, this name of waste should indeed be gotten rid of, she doesn't want to be seen as a waste for the rest of her life!

"Your Majesty, I'm a weak woman, how can I survive in the mansion if I don't have the strength to show my edge, if I am poisoned, won't my life be wasted?"

A boudoir girl has such a scheming, she will not be a thing in the pool in the future!

"Then what is your current grade?" asked Emperor Xuanwu in a slightly hasty manner.

Twelve was stunned, "I'm sure I can kill a fourth-order martial artist." "It's just a certainty, Twelve is good at hand-to-hand combat, what she has learned is killing moves, even if she doesn't have fighting spirit, she can take people's lives invisibly.

However, when these words were heard in Emperor Xuanwu's ears, it was she who admitted that her strength was above the fourth order, and Emperor Xuanwu suddenly clapped his hands: "Okay! Sure enough, a hero is a young man! Sima Xiong can have a daughter like you, it is his blessing." ”

Twelve sneered coldly, I was afraid that her father would only see her as a stain, strength is a blessing, and if you don't have strength, you deserve to be trampled on, what is this kind of family going to do?

Twelve Bensheng was disappointed in her relationship, and she was not uncommon with the so-called warmth of her family, she could live a better and better life alone.

"I don't care about beating King Rui among you, but you have to participate in the Douqi Contest after half a month, so it will be regarded as a quid pro quo, how about it?" Emperor Xuanwu asked confidently, after half a month, the Douqi Competition, as long as it is a Xuanwu person, as long as it is a martial artist, you can participate, and the four best people will be selected from it, and a month later, you will go to Qinglong to represent Xuanwu in the competition of the four countries.

In the past few days, she has never heard of any competitions, she tilted her head and asked suspiciously: "What do you mean?"

"You don't know? haha, a month later, the Four Kingdoms Competition, based on strength, I have posted the emperor's list, and half a month later, I will set up a ring in the imperial city, as long as it is a young man under the age of twenty, you can participate, and those with high strength will represent me Xuanwu to face the Three Kingdoms!" In order to win the top prize, he even held a shocking national selection competition, trying to select masters from the people, from the sect and from the academy, and fight to regain face.

Isn't this the perfect opportunity to wash away the name of this waste?

The competition of the four countries, the gathering of masters, is enough for her to learn a lot of things, Twelve smiled proudly, "Okay, Sima Ruyi promised the emperor that he would sign up for the competition in half a month! ”

She said sonorously and forcefully, but unfortunately, there was not enough loyalty in her words, and she was more than confident.
