Chapter 150: The Mirage Queen
Yin Jiao and Yin Congzhou walked side by side, out of Afang Palace, and walked all the way to the west gate of the imperial city.
They walked not slowly, nor fast, not much faster than the other ministers who had just finished the feast. Therefore, after more than ten breaths, they must go their separate ways, one to the south and the other to the west.
However, they didn't know what to say, and just walked silently.
Walking into the arch of the city gate, the heavy city wall blocked the eyes of others, and Yin Jiao turned his head at this time, his eyes full of suspicion.
"Was that really a great teacher just now?"
Yin Congzhou did not answer. He didn't know how to answer. For a long time, Yin Xuan said that the Great Master and the Seven Princes went to Zifu Mountain together, and when they returned from Zifu Mountain, the Great Master was gone, and it was likely that he had died in Zifu Mountain.
Linghu Minzhi was not as sure as Yin Xuan, but he also said that he did see an old man who was likely to be a great teacher, good at spiritism, with the strength of the Xuan Realm, and walking with someone who resembled the Seven Princes and dared to be. What's more, they have silver medals for the Hundred Variety Pill and the Temple System.
Yin Jiao once believed Yin Xuan's judgment.
However, at the banquet of the Son of Heaven, they saw with their own eyes the great master. Shocked, in order to distinguish the authenticity, Yin Congzhou also made a special close contact with the great master, and made some tests, but did not see any flaws.
"Genno...... Probably mistaken. Yin Congzhou sighed lightly: "On the contrary, it makes Hu Minzhi more cautious." ”
"This is something that doesn't make a difference. Yin Jiao's face sank, and his hand patted lightly on the carriage. Ziying, who was sitting in the driver's seat, shook the reins, and the carriage galloped out of the city gate and along the right side of the gallop road. Galloping towards the west of the city.
Yin Congzhou shook his head regretfully, Yin Xuan was going to be unlucky.
The carriage drove out of the city gate, turned south, and a figure stood quietly on the side of the road. Yin Congzhou's eyes shrank slightly, and he opened the window a slit.
Linghu Minzhi followed and walked with the carriage. Du Yu led the two horses and followed from a distance.
"Toshiyuki. We have seen the great power division. ”
"Really?" asked Linghu Minzhi rhetorically, but he was not very surprised. It seems that I have been mentally prepared for a long time.
Yin Congzhou was silent for a moment, and then said, "I heard that you have been very close to that commoner recently?"
"I want to be friends with him. Ling Hu Minzhi paused, and then said, "Mr. said it." If you can't defeat your enemy, make him a friend. ”
Yin Congzhou said lightly: "Friends are also to be chosen, and it is not worth it to be friends with people who will die." ”
"Sir, the door of death does not dare to come to the inner city......"
"The heart is dead, and it is also dead. Yin Congzhou gently closed the window, and his voice became erby. "It's better to think about progress than to stop thinking about it, there is never a way back in officialdom. One wrong step is a catastrophe. ”
Linghu Minzhi stood still and watched the carriage gradually move away. Melt into the night, but don't know what to say.
Du Yu followed and looked at Ling Hu Minzhi with concern. He could see that Ling Hu Minzhi's face was not very good.
After a while, Ling Hu Minzhi took the reins and turned over on his horse. But he didn't go home, but galloped along the way. Walk slowly south.
......
The Great Master walked in, smiled at Wuji, and walked down the corridor to the inner room.
Ying Yiran stepped forward and gently pushed Wuji, the corners of her mouth furrowed: "If you don't go in yet, what are you doing standing stupidly?"
"This ......" Wuji woke up like a dream, but he still couldn't believe it.
"Let's go inside. Ying Yiran glanced at Shi Yuling, pushed Wuji into the inner room, and closed the door with his hand.
Shi Yuling motioned to Lin Fei and the others, who were also at a loss, to continue eating, and then followed. However, she did not enter the door, and stood under the porch.
The great master stood still in the room, and Ying Yiran stepped forward, took the cloak, and hung it on the coat hook on the side.
Wuji's eyes shrank, feeling a little strange. After removing the cloak, the shoulders of the great master in front of him seemed to be narrower, and the hips were wider, although it was not very obvious, but it gave people a different feeling. Wuji stared at his waist and hips, and the more he looked, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"Young man, don't look at insolence. Although the voice of the great master was low, it was not a male voice, but a little shriek, like a woman.
Wuji's eyes flashed, collided with Ying Yiran's shy eyes, and suddenly realized, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "I didn't know that Her Royal Highness the Queen was coming, and it was a capital crime." ”
"How do you know I'm the queen?" The great master turned around, the gray hair on his face was gone, a goose egg face somewhat similar to Ying Yiran, warm and lustrous skin, a pair of slightly tired eyes, even if there was no piece of jewelry, but still graceful and luxurious, not to be forced.
"I heard Yiran say that the only people in this world who can make her so close are the queen and the great teacher. The great teacher has died, and naturally there is only Her Royal Highness the Queen. ”
The queen glanced at Ying Yiran, and said, "It seems that your mouth is not very strict." ”
"I don't have any. Ying Yiran said: "Queen Mother, don't listen to his nonsense, he is the best at deceiving people." ”
"I believe that. The queen bowed slightly. "Otherwise, how could you be distracted? ”
The "Queen Mother's ......" Ying was also flushed.
"I went to prepare something to eat, and after pretending to be for a long time, I watched people eat it, and I didn't eat a bite myself. This great teacher is really not done by ordinary people. ”
"Hehe, queen mother, I'll arrange it, and you can talk slowly. ”
Ying Yiran shook his fist at Wuji, made an effort to make a move, turned around and walked out, and closed the door again.
Mowgli was a little speechless. What is this, seeing the mother-in-law, the dignified queen is out of the palace, even if this is on the edge of the imperial city, I'm afraid it won't be just for the son-in-law.
"Sit down. The queen sat down on the main seat, pointed to the chair on the ground, and motioned for Wuji to take a seat. "Do you know what I'm here for?"
"The kid doesn't know, and I ask Her Royal Highness the Queen to make it clear. ”
"Do you know what the great master is most proud of in his life?"
Mowgli shook his head. Of course he didn't know, and he wouldn't say it if he knew, and at this time, the person who was in a hurry to express himself was the stupidest.
"Although he is a sixth order of the Xuan Realm, it is not worth mentioning for his status as a great master. The queen leaned back, leaned back in her chair, and held the edge of the table with both hands, revealing her white slender fingers, which looked like white jade against the red sandalwood tabletop.
"His most conceited thing is his wisdom. The queen raised her eyelids and looked at Mowgli. "I want to see what the genius who has inherited his wisdom and has been so highly expected by him looks like, and whether he can take on such a heavy responsibility. ”
Wuji thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Her Royal Highness the Queen, the kid is brave and willing to diagnose the pulse of Her Royal Highness the Queen." ”
"Pulse diagnosis?" The queen's eyes flashed slightly: "Do you want to show your medical skills?" I know that your medical skills are better than blue, and you can use needles, but ......"
Wuji shook his head: "Your Royal Highness, do you feel that your heart is beating too fast and your breath is disordered?"
The queen closed her mouth, withdrew her hand on the table, tucked it in her sleeve, and looked at Wuji quietly. Of course she knows what Wuji said, but she thinks she is covering it up well, and Wuji shouldn't be able to find out.
"The mirage is ever-changing, but it can only be imitated, and it can't be prepared with all the forms and gods. Her Royal Highness the Queen must have been exhausted in order to replace the great teacher. If you don't adjust it in time, I'm afraid there will be a danger of degrading or even falling down. Her Royal Highness the Queen, in order to keep the phoenix body safe, let the kid diagnose your pulse. ”
The queen smiled and slowly stretched out her arms. "Sure enough, he is a clever boy and very good at talking. ”
Wuji didn't speak, turned to the queen's side, stretched out three fingers, and gently put them on the queen's veins.
He vaguely heard the great master say that there is a kind of mysterious beast called a mirage, and the ability is illusion, which has no attack power, but can pretend to be any person or thing that wants to change. But it's easy to look like a person, but it's extremely difficult to look like a god, so this ability is extremely draining.
The queen pretended to be a great teacher, of course, not only to joke with him, but more importantly, to prove that the great teacher was safe in front of the ministers, and to break the suspicion of Yin Xuan's father Yin Jiao and others. Those people are all imperial elites, fine and yin, the slightest mistake, the queen will show flaws, how can you not be tired?
What's more, with his current realm, no matter how well the queen hides it, it will be difficult to escape his eyes. So as soon as he opened his mouth, he pointed straight to the point, turned against the guest, and seized the initiative from the queen.
After a moment, Mowgli withdrew his fingers and sat back in his place silently.
The queen also withdrew her arm and looked at Wuji quietly: "How?"
"Her Royal Highness the Queen works hard for state affairs, serving two terms, consuming too much mental energy, and lacking in qi and blood, so you should take supplements in time and take good care of them, otherwise it will have a negative impact on the realm, and please pay more attention to Her Royal Highness the Queen. ”
The queen lowered her eyelids, nodded silently, and let out a long sigh: "I'm indeed a little tired, but it's just ......"
Wuji took out the wooden box from his arms, opened it, and gently pushed it in front of the queen. The rich vitality suddenly filled the room, and the queen's eyes lit up, and she involuntarily took two breaths.
"Half a branch of purple-blooded Longzhi, please smile at Her Royal Highness the Queen. ”
The queen smiled, her eyes winking. "What is this, hiring or bribery? Although the Purple Blood Longzhi is valuable, compared to my daughter, it is far from enough. The Heavenly Academy is the foundation of the empire, even if you send a whole Purple Blood Longzhi, I can't let you get through the tricks. ”
"Don't dare, it's just a little filial piety from the younger generation. The younger generation comes from the border, neglects etiquette, and only has a naked heart, please ask Her Royal Highness the Queen to learn from it. If you can serve Her Royal Highness the Queen, you will never give up. ”
"Really?"
"It's true. ”
"Oh well. The queen smiled quietly: "Whether it is marrying my daughter, being a concubine, or entering the Heavenly Academy, or being a national teacher, you need to be responsible." Are you a responsible person?"
Mowgli blinked, dazed.
The queen was a little speechless, so she had to continue: "I heard that you live here because the Death Gate of the Dark Eight Gates wants to trouble you?"
Mowgli understood. He scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "Her Royal Highness doesn't know anything, I live here, not because I'm afraid of death, but because I'm worried about national law. Xianyang is the emperor, and he kills ......"
He was halfway through his speech when he suddenly stopped.
The queen pushed a jade plaque in front of him.
"I don't want Shi Dalong to see the sunshine of the New Year. ”-
