Chapter 165: Drawing the Sword and Dancing
The atmosphere in Longchen Palace was quiet and harmonious, Gu Yanru and Yang Shu may have had an epiphany after experiencing the catastrophe, or maybe it was Qingchen's words that made them feel empowered, but now it seems that they have converged a lot, but the two Yu Meiren and Su Cairen, who have never had such an opportunity to get close to Xiao Ling, scratched their heads and gestured vigorously, hoping to attract Xiao Ling's attention.
"Sitting like this on the Laba Festival, it's too boring, I have a proposal, the dance of the Jade Hook Princess of the Heart Cultivation Hall last time was really unforgettable, why don't the Jade Hook Princess take advantage of today's happiness and dance again, how about it?" Suddenly, Xiao Ling turned his head to look at Qingchen and said so.
Qingchen couldn't figure out what Xiao Ling was thinking, but let her dance, Yu's plan tonight was fine, and she was able to stumble Xiao Ling, so she had no reason not to agree.
Thinking of this, Qingchen nodded with a smile and said, "Since the emperor has ordered it, how dare Qingchen not agree?" But everyone here has already seen the Oriental Willow Dance last time, why don't we change it to something new this time?"
"Oh, what new thing does the princess want to change?" Xiao Ling's eyes flashed with curiosity.
"Sword dance. Qingchen spit out these two words between his lips, and looked directly at Xiao Ling, already thinking about it in his heart.
Xiao Ling knew that Mu Qingchen knew martial arts, so he said the word sword dance to Mu Qingchen and looked at him with a little surprise and fell silent, he didn't object, he just turned his head and said something in Qin Xi's ear, but saw Qin Xi nodded, looked at Qingchen, and quickly turned to leave.
It didn't take long for Qin Xi to return to Longchen Palace, still holding a sword in his hand, the black scabbard was unpretentious and inconspicuous, only a few strands of carved embellishments on it were bronzing, adding a lot of color to the scabbard.
Mu Qingchen saw the sword at first sight, because ...... It was her sword, to be precise, Ye Tingcheng's sword.
In the past, she fought the sword world, was happy to enmity and hatred, and got acquainted with Feng Xiran and Ning Chen, who were close friends, and later traveled to the court for Xiao Ling, and she tried her best to think about it, and this sword was already shelved by her. On the day after the seal, she brought this sword to Fengzao Palace, but unfortunately in only three days, she ended up with a rabbit and a dead dog, and this sword was left in the Ningyue Palace forever.
Qingchen didn't expect that Xiao Ling would keep this sword.
"Princess, please. Qin Xi walked in front of Qingchen, presented the sword with both hands, and handed it to Qingchen.
Qingchen didn't say anything, stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the sword, and pulled the sword out of the scabbard, a cold light flashed, and the cold sword light flashed in front of everyone, the two timid concubines were already frightened, looking at Qingchen, there was also a trace of fear in their eyes.
"The sword aura is awe-inspiring, its voice is like a phoenix, it is really a good sword. Qingchen said, an inexplicable look in his eyes floated through, and then spoke, "Your Majesty, please take a good look." ”
After Qingchen finished speaking, he took a few steps back, walked to the center of the main hall of Longchen Palace, waved the long sword in his hand, and began a wonderful sword dance.
Fluttering like a frightening dragon, graceful like a dragon's posture, light and dexterous, like a swallow flying, circling gracefully in the hall.
The long sword in Qingchen's hand swung and turned into beautiful sword flowers in mid-air, accompanied by the sword qi slowly swinging in the air, and then disappeared without a trace.
There are not many people in the main hall, and there are only three people who seriously watch Mu Qingchen's sword dance, Xiao Ling, Gu Yanru, and Ye Xi.
Ye Xi saw it because she knew that Mu Qingchen was Ye Qingcheng and her master, and seeing that the master danced the Amazing Sword so well as in the past, Ye Xi felt deeply happy in her heart.
Gu Yanru looked at it because she had always thought that she was the most special person in the harem, she knew that Ye Qingcheng could dance swords, and in order to win Xiao Ling's favor, she also went to learn sword dancing. Later, Xiao Ling was really obsessed with watching her dance the sword, but she didn't expect that now she would meet a master of sword dance.
As for Xiao Ling...... The moment he saw Qingchen dancing, there was no expression on his face, he couldn't see a special look, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Longchen Palace was a little abnormal quietly, only the sound of Qingchen dancing the sword, her movements were sometimes soothing, just like a gentle and demure lady, sometimes violent, and like a general on the battlefield.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling suddenly got up, pulled out the soft sword at his waist, launched an offensive, and attacked towards Qingchen.
Qingchen was dancing, feeling the danger approaching, and then turned around, the sword in his hand blocked Xiao Ling's attack, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he turned defense into an attack and began to fight Xiao Ling.
It's not that they haven't fought each other before, it's just that at that time, they stopped at the point to learn martial arts, but now, it's not like that.
Even if Xiao Ling just wanted to test how high Qingchen's martial arts were, even if he just wanted to know how many hole cards Qingchen still hadn't taken out, Qingchen obviously didn't think so.
Every time she danced a sword, her mind would think of the past with Xiao Ling, that those gentle words were all deceptions with ulterior motives, that those gentle and shallow smiles were just deliberate frame-mes, that she had done everything, and that it was she who insisted on standing by Xiao Ling's side that pushed the Ye family to this point of no return......
The faces of the Ye family's full door and the three thousand hidden guards appeared in front of her one by one, the unknown corpse pit in the Troubled Wind Gang, the corpse that belonged to her own lying in the crystal coffin, and the Tianjizi who was tortured to death by breaking the tendons of his hands and feet......
With every movement, Qingchen will think of a person, the hatred in his heart deepens by one point, and the strength in his hand is also increased by one point.
Xiao Ling found that he originally just wanted to test it, but he was made to fight for his life by Mu Qingchen. Because Mu Qingchen's moves are obviously not a simple sword dance, but have evolved into a killing move against the enemy, the move is ruthless, and the move is deadly.
The moment the familiar swordsmanship poured out from Qingchen's sword tip, Xiao Ling was finally shocked, he knew that the person in front of him was not joking, but really...... Want his life.
Because he saw that the sword technique used by Qingchen was the new sword technique that Ye Tingcheng had created by herself when she gathered the strengths of the major sword sects, and with the Fengming Sword in her hand, she created a move Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens, which no one has been able to break so far.
Xiao Ling's eyes flashed slightly, his heart fluctuated, the sword move of the Phoenix Dance for the Nine Days, Ye Tingcheng had never shown it in front of people, because with Ye Lingcheng's martial arts and wisdom, he didn't need to use this trick to be able to take people's lives.
If this is the case, then why does Mu Qingchen have this swordsmanship? She has Ye Chengcheng's plain fragrance and half rhyme, and can dance Ye Chengcheng's Dongfeng Willow Dance, she and Ye Xi have an inexplicable relationship, her movements and demeanor are similar to Ye Qingcheng, and now she even knows Ye Qingcheng's sword moves, is all this just a coincidence?
Still is...... Is she Ye Chengcheng at all?
This thought flashed in Xiao Ling's mind, making him slightly stunned, but at the moment of being stunned, Mu Qingchen's offensive had reached its peak, but he saw Qingchen rise into the air, and a sword swept out, locking his throat, forcing Xiao Ling back two steps, and then the offensive did not stop, jumped up, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at the top of Xiao Ling's head in an upside-down position.
Xiao Ling was caught off guard and dodged, but it was still a little too late, Qingchen's sword qi had already cut through the dragon robe on his body, from his left chest to his right abdomen, running down, and even the right hand holding the sword was slightly injured.
However, just when Qingchen succeeded in one blow and was about to strengthen the offensive again, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest, his body couldn't help but be stunned, and his speed slowed down, giving Xiao Ling a chance to retreat.
It is the moon wild flower and the incense drunk.
Qingchen knew that she must have spent too much true qi on herself to force poison, and now that her internal breath was poor, her internal strength could not support her to complete the sword moves of the Nine Heavens of Feng Wu, so now, she could only let Xiao Ling suffer minor injuries, but she could not seriously injure him.
Thinking of this, Qingchen simply put away the sword move in his hand, gathered his internal strength, and slowly breathed. In an instant, the hall that was still turbulent has calmed down at this moment, as if everything just now was just a dream.
Looking at the concubines again, their faces were already pale, only Gu Yanru was a little calmer, but her face was also extremely ugly, but she didn't know if her body couldn't bear it, or because she was injured by the sword qi just now.
"The emperor is really interested, and he is actually interested in accompanying Qingchen to dance the sword. However, the emperor's offensive suddenly shot, Qingchen was frightened, and he didn't know the severity of his attack, and he injured the emperor, so please don't blame the emperor. After Qingchen stood still, he was the first to speak, and it was like this.
Xiao Ling looked at Qingchen, his eyes were deep, he didn't speak, but he only sighed in his heart that Mu Qingchen was extremely smart.
When these words came out, he pushed the sin of assassinating the emperor cleanly, but put all the blame on Xiao Ling on the grounds of Xiao Ling's sudden action. In other words, "you deserve to be hurt, who made you want to attack me behind your back".
"The princess's martial arts skills are very strong, but it is an eye-opener for me. Xiao Ling said meaningfully, "But I don't know who the princess studied with?"
"I thought you could see who I was learning from. What's the matter, isn't that sword move just now obvious enough?" Qingchen said with a smile.
She knew that Xiao Ling was asking this question with the intention of probing, anyway, Xiao Ling was very familiar with Fengwu Nine Days, it was better to admit it generously, the virtual is real, the real is false, her unabashed attitude made Xiao Ling even more confused.
Xiao Ling listened to Qingchen's words and denied the thoughts in his mind. The person in front of him cannot be Ye Chengcheng, because there can be no two Ye Chengcheng in this world, it is impossible for the age difference to be so big, it is impossible for the appearance to be very different, it is impossible for one to be born in the Ye family of the Ningyue Country, and the other to be born in the royal family of the Heavenly Star Country.
The most important thing is that if Mu Qingchen is really Ye Qingcheng, then she will definitely do everything possible to conceal her identity until she achieves her goal, and it is impossible to reveal such a flaw, so that he can find a loophole and speculate her identity.
Mu Qingchen and Xiao Ling looked at each other, looking at the unpredictable expression on Xiao Ling's face, he already understood a little bit of the thoughts in Xiao Ling's mind in his heart. Xiao Ling is suspicious, this is his biggest weakness, he will only believe the truth he found out, if you tell him generously, he will think you have ulterior motives.
There may be many people in this world who know Xiao Ling, but there is no one who can compare to Ye Tingcheng, who has been with him for many years.
And she Mu Qingchen is the former Ye Qingcheng.
