Past life 12
"Doya still wants to continue to serve the adults, and I want to continue to accompany the adults, but this long journey, Doya can only accompany you here......"
The temple priest looked at her tenderly.
"If there is an afterlife, Doya hopes to be your friend and your ...... relatives"
The priest of the temple responded: "Then say it." ”
......
The epidemic lasted for three months before it finally ended.
The temple suffered heavy losses, and the chanting sound everywhere before had also decreased a lot, and people walked by silently with sad expressions.
As one of the heroes who solved the epidemic, Xi Yan was rarely commended and rewarded by the king, which made the surviving princes and princesses very jealous.
But Xi Yan didn't care about the treasures that were given down this time, he went up the holy mountain alone and came to the outside of the priest's temple.
Outside the main hall, however, he was stopped by the black priest.
"Your Highness."
The corners of Xi Yan's lips moved, and he glanced at the closed hall: "Didn't the temple choose a new divine attendant?" ”
The priest shook his head: "The priest does not want to. ”
"Then can I, my student, continue to follow her?"
The expression of the black priest seemed to be a little surprised, and then shook his head again under Xi Yan's expectant look.
"The priest has commanded, you have learned and do not need to come again."
“......”
Xi Yan finally understood that in the end, only the priest of the temple was left.
From now on, she will be alone with boundless loneliness and unspeakable fate.
......
A year later.
Succeeded in recovering all the cities in the Northwest Frontier and intimidating the Gentiles to make them dare not attack again, and the victory was triumphant.
The previous disaster that almost wiped out the national capital has passed, and the ground of the national capital is clean and bright, and there is no trace of the haze of the beginning.
Xi Yan returned to the royal family, and still went his own way in the power struggle between his brothers and sisters, lingering in the Goolan Tile House.
The temple welcomed many newcomers, all rootless people from all over the world, but the temple of priests was rarely opened.
The king forgot his original fears, and he showed great generosity in the face of the general Sember, who could bring him stability on the frontier.
Not only did he make him a general, but he was rewarded with a mansion covering an area of Aurora, and he sent a thousand slaves over, and he was also allowed not to hand over the spoils of war.
This matter was opposed by many courtiers, and there was still opposition until the day of Si Yan's triumph.
But soon, they couldn't speak.
As soon as Ember arrived in the capital, he executed several people who tried to assassinate him in full view.
The spear pierced his body, and the warm blood sprinkled on his face, but he didn't even frown, and his body naturally exuded a vicious aura accumulated from the bloody slaughter on the battlefield.
Most of the courtiers in the national capital are pampered and can only play tricks, once they meet a person like Si Yan who is unreasonable and acts directly, he naturally has to be aggrieved and hold his tail between his legs.
Si Yan did not return to his general's mansion, he was stationed directly in the barracks on the outskirts of the national capital.
The king was even more pleased to see that he had no intention of befriending the powerful and fighting for power, and he took this opportunity to reward him with many treasures, all of which were piled up in the general's palace.
......
Xi Yan had just tried to infiltrate the military camp controlled by Si Yan on the first day, and he was caught by him.
When the lieutenant general under Si Yan pushed the disguised Xi Yan in front of him, he looked at the poorly disguised person in front of him, raised his eyebrows, and then directly carried him into the military tent like a chicken.
Xi Yan: "......"
Shame, shame!
After entering the military account, Si Shen let go of his hand and asked bluntly, "What is the Ninth Prince doing in my difficult military camp?" ”
Si Yan was so keen, Xi Yan was not surprised, what surprised him was that he could guess that he was the Ninth Prince at a glance?
"Have you seen me?"
Xi Yan thought about it carefully, he had been roaming in the Goolan Restaurant, and these places were not places where the great general would set foot.
"The Ninth Prince, Xi Yan, is a fugitive waste on the surface, but the epidemic a year ago was solved by you, and for this reason you fell into the siege of other princes and princesses...... A year has passed, but you are still fine. ”
The corners of her lips curled, "Besides, I know that you were taught by the priests of the temple. ”
“......”
Xi Yan was silent.
He always felt that the sentence added by the general later was the point.
However, Xi Yan likes to communicate with smart and interesting people.
He and the general glanced at each other, and the other seemed to mean the same thing, so they both sat down in tacit understanding.
Although the beginning of the encounter was a bit embarrassing, Xi Yan and Si Yan talked all night, only to feel that they met late.
It's just a little bit that Xi Yan feels very inexplicable.
He had already drunk too much in the second half of the night, and his mind was a little unconscious, so he asked in a daze, "Ash, why are you...... A word for temple priests? ”
Obviously, he was talking to him about the ills of the kingdom, about life, and about his character...... But in the end, without exception, they all go back to the priests of the temple.
He studied with the priests of the temple for a year, what could he learn? In the end, the temple priest drove him away!
Si Yan's alcohol consumption was much better than his, and looking at Xi Yan, who was already drunk, he shook the cup in his hand casually: "Naturally, I want to see her." ”
“......”
“......?”
“!!!”
When Xi Yan heard this sentence in his sleep the next day, he was directly frightened awake.
He glanced around, it was his own mansion, and it was estimated that Si Yan had drunk too much yesterday and sent someone to send him back.
Just as he was about to continue sleeping peacefully, he suddenly heard an irrepressible noise outside.
Xi Yan couldn't sleep anymore because he always felt that something big was about to happen.
When he walked out of the dormitory, he saw a group of maidservants in the prince's mansion gathered together, as if they were discussing something, and their faces were frightened.
"What are you talking about?"
Xi Yan suddenly made a sound, which startled the group of servant girls who were talking about it, and almost jumped up.
They looked at Xi Yan timidly: "Your Highness, Your Highness." ”
Xi Yan's eyes were puzzled: "What is it that scares you like this." ”
Several handmaidens looked at each other, and they didn't dare to breathe in a timid atmosphere, and finally Xi Yan casually pointed to a handmaiden.
"You, as far as you're concerned."
The handmaid who was pointed out wanted to cry without tears, and explained tremblingly: "Your Highness, now that the whole country is spreading that the general has ignored the divine power and the royal power, and has broken into the temple to meet the priest of the temple. ”
“...... What did you say? ”
Xi Yan didn't react immediately, so the little maid explained again in a trembling voice.
This time, Xi Yan finally understood.
"It's over."
His eyes glazed over.
It turned out that it wasn't a dream talk, but something that Ember had said last night.
This guy's ambition has never been on the kingship, his goal is the divine power!
