Phoenix Villa, Phoenix Pavilion, the secret room of the main building

Nalan Ember sat quietly in a room, where there were walls everywhere and there were no windows, but here, it was not dark, but very bright.

Because this is a roof cast of luminite stones, Nalan Ember is bored and half-lying in the soft couch of the concubine in front of a sandalwood coffee table, drinking tea leisurely.

In front of her lay a long, narrow box of delicate bright yellow. It is clearly carved with the auspicious pattern of the dragon and phoenix, the carving is exquisite, the materials are exquisite, and the luxury is extremely luxurious, which makes people jaw-dropping.

"Sect Master." The stone door on the wall was slowly pushed open, and a person walked in.

"Sit." Nalan Ember poured a cup of tea and handed it over. Chu Tianyou took it with both hands and sat down at the other end of the soft couch.

"Sect Master, find your subordinates to come and have any instructions." Chu Tianyou noticed the exquisite box on the coffee table. That's a royal pattern.

"Look at this." Nalan Ember pushed the box over.

Chu Tianyou glanced at her suspiciously, her expression was faint, and she couldn't see anything.

Chu Tianyou slowly opened it with doubts, and a trace of shock swept through his eyes, because what he saw was a holy decree.

Chu Tianyou unfolded it carefully, and when the words written with the red pen jumped into his eyes one by one, his surprise increased.

In the end, it turned from surprise to shock, and the shock was completely revealed by his facial expression.

"Sect Master, you?!" Chu Tianyou couldn't help himself from being shocked, because the content was too shocking.

His eyes tell it all. However, he didn't dare to say any more, because the content was too terrible, and it was an existence that would shake the earth once it was announced to the world.

He couldn't have imagined that the delicate woman in front of him would have such an identity that changed the color of the world.

On the holy decree, Zhu Bi personally approved, stamped the text of the jade seal of the country, and clearly wrote-

Fengtian carrier, the imperial edict said: the eldest daughter of the emperor, Nalan Feng Ember, awarded by heaven, inheriting the heavens and the earth, relying on the oracle of the goddess of the phoenix, established as the crown prince, canonized the eldest princess of the phoenix, crowned the regent of Zhongzhou, and was in the imperial court, waiting for the destiny of heaven, Yuner inherited the unification, ascended the throne as the emperor, and ruled the world. Chin this!

There are also three seals in the brocade box, a seal of the crown prince, a seal of the eldest princess, and a seal of the regent of Zhongzhou.

Chu Tianyou stared at her with round eyes, and wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a word, he was like in a dream at this moment, what did he see just now?

How many things are still unknown to this master, and how many legends can make the wind and clouds change color.

"As you can see." Nalan Ember raised an eyebrow and smiled slowly. There was not much expression on his face, his hands were put behind his head, and he gently leaned on the soft pillow: "This is a dream in everyone's eyes, but for me, it is not a shackle that locks my life's freedom and joy, you know, what I want most is one person, one sword, one horse and one river and one lake." Come and go calmly. But this is my responsibility and my destiny, an identity that I was born with and could not choose. And I don't have a choice, God bless, the reason why I want to build Phoenix Mountain Villa in the imperial capital is to let my power slowly penetrate into the high wall, now, everything there is under my control, the people there are quietly waiting for my orders, and I need to wait for the opportunity, God bless, are you willing to accompany me, one day in the near future, return to the Zhaoyang Hall together. Nalan Ember stared into Chu Tianyou's eyes, as serious as he had never been.

Chu Tianyou understood what Nalan Ember meant, and also understood Nalan Ember's intentions. Immediately got up and knelt on one knee, bowed his head and bowed: "My subordinates swear allegiance to the sect master, and I will not regret my death." ”

"Very well, I really didn't misread you." Nalan Ember smiled slightly, stunning and captivating.

But that smile made Chu Tianyou's scalp tingle. Is it one day, this day is going to change.

"Sect Master." The voice of a dark guard came from the messenger of the stone wall.

"What?" Chu Tianyou got up and opened the small window where only half of the other party's face could be seen.

"Lord Qiqi, Mrs. Yan Xi just sent the news, and the Xuanming Mansion posted a list of texts, recruiting famous doctors in the world, and the diagnosis fee was 100,000 taels of gold. Mrs. Yan Xi has already heard the exact news, the second son, Nalan Han, was seriously ill and was actually poisoned. The Dark Guard handed a note and immediately turned and disappeared into the darkness.

Chu Tianyou handed the note to Nalan Ash.

Nalan Ember didn't look at it and put it on the coffee table casually, "Xuanming Mansion is the royal palace, it seems to be no different from other Zhumen mansions, in fact, there are eight hundred and ten guards in it, and there are countless secret guards, and its strictness is no less than that of the palace, Nalan Hanyi can be poisoned, then there is only one possibility, that is, there is a traitor in Xuanming Mansion, and only the imperial concubine Du Yuxin can send the traitor into Xuanming Mansion, it seems that she can't wait and wants to attack Xuanming Mansion." Command someone to deliver my greetings, and God willing, I'll take you to an old friend. After saying this, Nalan Ember glanced at Chu Tianyou, and Chu Tianyou caught a trace of cunning in her gaze.

"Why is the imperial concubine so jealous of Xuanming Mansion?" Chu Tianyou was a little puzzled.

You must know that this imperial concubine is now in power. The current Tianque Dynasty doesn't know that there is an emperor, but only that there is an imperial concubine.

Chu Tianyou was actually quite curious, how did this imperial concubine do it. Orthodoxy was forced to go away, and this concubine, who was supposed to be in the harem, actually pointed at the world in the former dynasty.

"It's as smart as God." Nalan Ember lifted the small pot and added a little tea to Chu Tianyou, and said slowly: "The most important son of the emperor's grandfather during his reign was the emperor's uncle Nalan Mingguang, his father and uncle have been the best since childhood, if it weren't for the rules set by the Tianque Emperor, they would have been emperors together, and the day after my father was made the crown prince, the emperor's uncle was crowned King Xuanming." He was also the first prince to be crowned king. After his father ascended the throne, he handed over the dispatch of 200,000 soldiers and horses to the emperor's uncle, and the brothers complemented each other to guard the thousands of miles. Although Du Yuxin was favored by his father, he was extremely jealous of his uncle, not only because he had a heavy army, but also because she was not treated by his uncle. But his father did not listen to persuasion and insisted on establishing a concubine, and in the future, the emperor's uncle said that the Du family would be the only failure in his father's life. Du wants to be justified in the reign of the emperor, and the imperial uncle is her first stumbling block, sometimes I wonder if it was not my father who was chosen by God back then, but the imperial uncle, now I can go far away and be happy. After Nalan Ember finished speaking, he sighed deeply, lowered his head and concentrated on drinking tea, not speaking.

Chu Tianyou, who was left, thought about flying.

In the afternoon, Nalan Ash's gold-decorated carriage drove into Suzaku Street without a hurry. Passing by the official list, there was a slight pause, and the front of the list was full of people who were talking.

Nalan Ember only glanced at it and let him move on. As soon as the tea was done, the carriage stopped in front of the main gate of Xuanming Mansion. Guards with knives were guarding the door. The side door has people similar to healers coming in and out.

Nalan Ember glanced at it, and the golden plaque of Xuanming Mansion was still shining, and the years had not left the slightest trace on it. How long has it been since she has been back here?

Leaving at the age of eight, she has been wandering alone for fifteen years, and the years have ruthlessly carved too much gloom and desolation on her heart, and her smile will never be as dusty as this gold plaque.

"The old slave has seen Miss Nalan." A voice interrupted Nalan Ash's thoughts, and a middle-aged man dressed as a butler had already walked out of the open vermilion lacquer door at some point, and bowed respectfully.

"Uncle Li, long time no see, everything is okay?" Nalan Ember looked at the man in front of him and smiled warmly.

"The old slave doesn't dare, please." The head manager Li Yi bowed his head and said respectfully.

The gate had been wide open, and Nalan Ash's carriage slowly drove in. Nalan Ember glanced at Chu Tianyou after putting down the curtain, and there was a murderous aura in his eyes.

Chu Tianyou's heart sank for a moment, and the carriage drove all the way into the inner courtyard before stopping.

Nalan Ember helped Chu Tianyou's hand to get out of the car, and as soon as she stood firmly, she saw a handsome boy coming in a hurry, and her hand was tightly held by the person who came, Nalan Hanqi held her hand and was speechless excitedly.

She's been gone for fifteen years. She was only eight years old that year, but she was deeply informed, and in just a few days, she was tortured to the point that she was not human, and the hospital recruited famous doctors from all over the world, but they were helpless against her illness.

Later, a white-bearded old man came, with the mentality of trying to take her out of the imperial city and take her away, that day the sky was full of snow, her carriage drove out of the imperial capital alone, he took the young Nalan Hanyi to chase her carriage and run, he couldn't run and fell in the snow, at that time he didn't know what death was, only knew that he would never see her again, so sad and sad.

Until he became an adult, he seemed to understand, but he still didn't want to accept the fact that she was no more, but what he couldn't have imagined was that after fifteen years, when everyone thought she had passed away, she actually came back.

And standing in front of him so perfectly, Nalan Hanqi stared at her intently, but no matter how she looked at it, she felt that the face in front of her didn't match the outline she once had?

"You 。。。。。。" As soon as Nalan Hanqi raised his hand, Nalan Ember glanced at Li Yi who was standing next to him with his residual vision, took Nalan Hanqi's raised hand and put it on his cheek, and smiled brightly: "Brother Qi, do you miss me very much." I'm grown up now. ”

Nalan Hanqi was stunned by her sudden move, and then found that she was holding her hand and touching it lightly behind her ear, where there was a slight protrusion - the Golden Needle Transfiguration Technique! Nalan Hanqi was proficient in medical skills and extremely intelligent, so she immediately understood what she meant. Smiled slowly: "It's good that you're back." ”

"Don't come unharmed?!" Nalan Ember let go of him and smiled.

"It's all good." Nalan Hanqi's eyes fluctuated, as if there were tears.

"It's so suave." Nalan Ember spoke in a sly tone.

is clearly ridiculing, she thinks Nalan Hanqi is particularly beautiful, wait, beauty, isn't this word to describe women. However, he is really beautiful!!

"Huh!" Hearing this ridicule, Nalan Hanqi laughed involuntarily, in childhood memories, she was the most naughty, I remember that once my younger brother Nalan Hanyi wore a dark green brocade robe and ran to the roof to reach the fruit on the apricot tree, and the maid saw it and pointed it to her.

She didn't even raise her head before she said, "A turtle, what's so beautiful." When Nalan Hanyi heard it, he turned around and yelled at her, but none of them stood firm and fell, and suddenly the entire Xuanming Mansion was in a hurry, and people turned on their backs.

And she, the initiator, actually calmly said a stupid turtle and went back to the room to sleep.

More than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and now everything is different, but as long as she comes back. Nalan Hanqi signaled that Li Yi didn't need to follow anymore, and then led her to the backyard. "Let's go to the peony garden, and the next day there." Nalan Hanqi restrained her excitement and led her towards the inner courtyard.

After a few tosses, the three of them transferred to the inner courtyard of Xuanming Mansion. In the courtyard, a person leaned under the gazebo, reading a book while tasting wine, his expression was leisurely, and his mood seemed to be very good.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Nalan Hanyi put down the book in his hand, turned his head, and looked at Nalan Ash, and at the same time, Nalan Ash also looked at Nalan Hanyi.

The breeze blew, and that year, the peony garden was full.
