Since it was decided that everyone would go together to see the king of Hejian County tomorrow, everyone dispersed and recuperated.

At night, Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu were still speechless at each other, and neither of them was sleepy for a long time.

Sensing that the arms around her waist were tightening more and more, and the chest that was close to her back couldn't help but rise and fall violently, Mu Jiaojiao sighed lightly, turned over and put her hands on his shoulders: "Don't be nervous. ”

"I wasn't nervous. Cui Pu said.

"Your throat is tight!" Mu Jiaojiao shook his head, his fingertips slowly touching his cheek, "Let it be, don't think too much." ”

Cui Pu put her face on the palm of her hand, and sighed lightly: "I'm just not angry." It's not that I'm not angry with what he's doing, but that I'm not angry at my own incompetence. When I was in Chang'an, I was a concubine of the old mansion, and every day I showed off my might on the streets of Chang'an, and I seemed to feel that I could do anything. As a result, now, when I really started to grasp the power, I realized how small my skills were. Once or twice, I can't protect you, and now I ...... The little lady is less than a year old, and she has already made a bad decision for others. And tomorrow...... Hey!"

He buried his head directly in the socket of her neck. "Although I said it harshly during the day, in fact, I didn't know in my heart? Especially the little lady still has the Gu worms he raised, if we provoke him, what will he do to the little lady, what should we do? We have already lost one child, we can't lose another. ”

Mu Jiaojiao only felt a pain in his heart when he heard this, and hurriedly covered his head: "Don't think about it anymore." Didn't I say it, everything goes with the flow. Since my aunt was able to resist the gnawing of the Gu worm and insisted on giving birth to me twenty years ago, I can also play with that bug for eighteen years, and our little lady will definitely not be far behind. ”

"It's just that the thought of what she will suffer makes me feel distressed, and my heart is so distressed!" Cui Pu said in a low voice, "I now finally understand why my father-in-law spent sixteen years looking for medicine for you, and another twenty years of tireless efforts to find the king of Hejian County." If it were me, as long as I could kill the worm on the little lady's body, I would be willing to sacrifice my life!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly shouted, and then she softened her voice again, "Don't say it, go to sleep! Sleep well, there are still many things waiting for us to do tomorrow!"

Cui Pu hummed in a low voice, and continued to bury his head in her neck, holding her waist firmly with both hands, and did not let go for a long time.

Mu Jiaojiao was in a daze, and seemed to hear him whisper: "I swear, in the future, I must be a supreme minister, so that the Son of Heaven will also be respectful to me, so that your mother and daughter will run rampant throughout the New Tang Dynasty, and no one will dare to touch a single hair of yours!"

"Well, I believe you. Mu Jiaojiao rubbed the top of his head sleepily, "But it's time to go to bed now, good." ”

"You ......" vaguely heard a crying sigh, and then endless sleepiness swept over her, swallowing her up.

The next morning, everyone woke up early. After gathering, we hastily had some breakfast, and then went to the palace of the king of Hejian County together. Mu Jiaojiao carried her daughter in the car, and Cui Pu and Mu You rode horses to protect both sides of their carriage.

At the gate of the county king's mansion, Liang Changshi was already waiting here. Seeing them coming, he said respectfully: "A few people here, please, the king of the county is waiting for you in the back garden." ”

Cui Pu bowed his head coldly and took the lead in the forefront.

As Liang Changshi entered the backyard, they heard a melodious sound of the piano coming into their ears. When the little lady heard the voice, she immediately danced happily, and burst into laughter from her little mouth.

Cui Pu and a few people heard it, but their hearts became heavier and heavier.

A few steps further, I saw the king of Hejian playing the qin in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. Today he was wearing a bright red robe, and the bewitching red draped over him, as if a torch had been lit around him, and it was terrifyingly bright and dazzling. Today, he wears a crown of red gold on his head, and the crown is inlaid with a ruby the size of a thumb nail, which is as bright as blood, and contrasts with the bright red clothes, so that his face has a bit of palpitating bewitchment.

As Cui Pu approached, he slowly plucked the last note, then withdrew his hand, looked up and smiled at them: "You guys are finally here." ”

This smile made the gentle bearing around him turn into a wicked one.

There is a pomegranate tree planted next to the pavilion. It's pomegranate blooming season, and the bright red flowers are dotted on the branches, blooming in the early morning sun, and the red-clothed man under the tree is a ......

Cui Pu couldn't help but gasp.

This man is definitely a demon who has cultivated to become a demon!

And does he have the ability to fight with such a demon?

"Yaaa~"

Suddenly, I heard the babbling of a child in my ears, and it was the little lady who struggled to stretch out her hand towards the king of Hejian.

Seeing this, the king of Hejian County smiled and said: "It's been more than half a year, I didn't expect the little lady to remember this king, this king is really honored." I haven't seen her for half a year, and the little lady has become more and more powdery and jade, and she seems to be more handsome than her father and aunt. This king likes such a child, let this king hug her again!"

Cui Pu immediately blocked Mu Jiaojiao and the child behind him. "Tell me, what the hell do you want to do?"

Shi Shiran, the king of Hejian County, got up, and the wide hem of his clothes rotated in an elegant arc with his movements, which caused the little lady to babble with joy.

"Cui Zhixian, what do you mean by this? This king doesn't understand. He chuckled.

Cui Pu was furious and was about to get angry, Mu You hurriedly stepped forward: "King Jun, have you been staring at us all these years? You know that I have been looking for you, but you keep asking people to pass me a lot of wrong information, causing me to run everywhere in the world." And this time, you also took the initiative to appear in front of me, otherwise I would not have been able to find you at all. ”

"You're getting more and more sensible. Hearing this, the King of Hejian smiled lowly. This shallow smile is simply beautiful, and even Cui Pu feels thrilled.

He hurriedly took a deep breath to calm down, and then listened to Mu You's continued question: "Since you chose to take the initiative to appear in front of us, it means that you want to end this matter as soon as possible." In that case, why do you still want to give the little lady a trick?"

"Who's to say I'm trying to put an end to this? These three generations, when the mother was willing to sacrifice her own life, she worked hard for a year to give birth to this little lady, and the little lady is not an ordinary person, the heart devouring Gu is such a poisonous thing, how many men can't stand it, after two or three episodes, they chose to cut themselves off and no longer suffer like this, but she endured it for more than ten years, this tenacity really makes this king admire. So the king thought, mother and grandmother are such tough people, then this little lady should not be far behind, right? His thin lips were lightly raised, and the king of Hejian spat out chilling words with a soft smile.

Cui Pu was immediately furious!

"You are so vicious, you don't even let go of such a young child! Why do you want to do this to my daughter? She is still so young!"

"It's because it's small, it's more interesting!" said the king of Hejian with a light smile.

"You're looking for death!" Cui Pu was so angry that his eyes were red, and he raised his fist and rushed over.

"Don't mess around, son-in-law!" Mu You hurriedly shouted when he saw this.

It's just that Cui Pu was angry, how could they stop him? So I saw him swing his fist over, and it fell on the face of the king of Hejian County, and his flower-like smile was shattered.

His punch almost exhausted all the strength of his body, and the king of Hejian County was almost unstable.

"The county king!" Seeing this, Liang Changshi hurriedly shouted and ran forward, and shouted, "Someone, someone is beating the county king, arrest them quickly!"

"Wait!" said the King of Hejian slowly. Turning around, he wiped the blood from the corners of his lips, and smiled coldly at Cui Pu.

"Good. Originally, the king still thought, otherwise it would be better to let the little lady be tossed by that bug. But now, seeing that you love her so much, the king has changed his mind—and every year you will bring her to the king for one day. Then the king assured her that she would be safe and sound for the rest of the year. Well, that's a good return, isn't it?"
