Chapter 1 Shadow across the sky

Gao Jian went straight to take out the small black altar, which was filled with the palace's home-brewed rice wine, and poured a full cup for the king.

The king must be careful to drink, this jar of rice wine is strong and easy to rise, and the high and gentle tell him.

Wang took a sip of the aged home-brewed rice wine, frowned and seemed to be interested, and then happily told the queen Zhang Yan,

This bird ginseng is nourishing and mellow, do you want me to get a spoonful for you, you will know the secret of this soup after tasting it yourself.

When the maid heard the king's words, she hurriedly scooped two spoonfuls of ginseng and fish soup for her, and handed her a green jade spoon into the queen's hand.

Let's try it first and see how the new chef is doing.

This maid's name is Liu, she is from the front-line position Zhao State, the king specially selected as the queen's personal maid, just a few months in the inner court is rumored, the most beautiful maid in the Changchun Gate.

Because of the charm of rice wine, Wang thought of what would happen to the people in the war when Huangchang committed crimes, so he asked Gao Jian about it.

What time do the people outside the city have dinner?

Wang Yanhou raised his hand and poured a cup of rice wine into his mouth, then dug a tablespoon of ten treasures and eight treasures into his mouth, chewed slowly and listened to what Gao Jian said.

Gao Jian gave the king a reply,

Changsheng Mansion has a vast land and many people, and the minister guesses that the time of this meal should be uncertain, but the minister heard that Changsheng Mansion is known as a dinner time.

Hearing what Takakane said, he let go of the spoon in his hand and looked at him, and sketched in his heart the appearance of the Changsheng market, and the lives of the people during the war, and asked him later.

Do you know about Zhao Guo's invasion?

As soon as he said this, the queen interrupted the topic.

She said unhappily, "Does the king want to go out and walk around the streets of Changsheng?"

He turned his head and glanced at the queen, as if he had never seen her, the cherry pink phoenix robe he wore tonight, the two of them were silent to each other, but the king was more concerned about the patterns on her phoenix robe.

I just want to know about the outside world and how other people live, and if the queen thinks the same way, then the king and I will be happy to go out with you and see what the ordinary people outside are like.

This palace is not happy with your behavior at this moment, and I am not that interested in accompanying you to see the Changsheng market, and besides, it is time for dinner, and the king wants to induce this palace, right?

The queen stretched out her hand and brought a spoonful of ginseng and fish soup to the king's bowl.

Let's eat some of this first, it's much better than your rice wine, didn't you just say you like this bird ginseng soup?

The king seemed to amuse her, and his eyes tossed back and forth, his gaze on her face.

Then there was a cup of fragrant rice wine and a small bowl of bird ginseng and fish soup, which was leisurely sent into the stomach.

During this time, you are greedy for power, so you often go to Huiren Hall to meet the minister, or there are many important military affairs waiting for you, I remember the major affairs of the imperial court, and it has always been the queen mother who handles it, right?

The king put down his glass and nibbled on the sugar sand again, and then talked to her about the recent incidents.

Now we are at a state of turmoil with Zhao, the people of several state capitals are living in the flames of war, and internal affairs are also uneasy.

The king could only say this to her about the affairs of the court, and after eating the white sugar sand Weng, he smashed a chestnut stewed in oil and threw it into his mouth.

I don't like to eat chestnuts that have been stewed in oil, and every time I eat them, I always feel weird, and the queen looks at him until she has chewed the whole chestnut.

I remember when I was a child, my mother and I were taken captive, and it seems that it was only then that I learned that chestnuts were edible.

It's been so long, and you can still remember, I'm hard to imagine that you had such a time.

It's been seven years, but I've always kept it in my mind, and I was taken prisoner with my mother on a cold winter afternoon.

What happened to the queen, and the queen looked at him with a calm gaze.

The king told the truth about his life as a prisoner through wine.

Two meals and water were brought every day, and my mother and I were like prisoners, looking forward to my father's army sweeping away the Di rebellion army every day, and after waiting for half a year, our army swept away the Di country in a war.

There is an oasis north of the Ivy Gate, and there is a Jijian Pavilion in the middle of the oasis, which is set up exclusively for living maids and listening to them.

At the beginning of the new month, the moon was scattered all over the palace, and there were many palaces as far as the eye could see, but there was not a single spark or a word of human speech.

Under the base of the small tree-lined city wall, a black shadow suddenly appeared and flashed quickly, and the black shadow dodging left and right appeared near the Jijian Pavilion, and in a blink of an eye, the monster disappeared outside the Jijian Pavilion, and there was no trace of him again.

The monster passed through the walls of the palace, entered the room of the maid Yingfeng, ravaged it and then killed it.

The cool breeze outside the temple shook the shade of the trees, the moon fell into the western mountain around the sky, and the rooster crowed outside the city.
