Volume 2 The Turbulent Darkness The Storm Is Unsettled Chapter 99 A Festive Vase
The night outside was deep, and I didn't know when the snow fell, and clusters of snow fell quietly and silently, and the vast snow soaked every corner of the world, such a big snow could cover up all traces.
Luo Kui raised his eyes and looked out the window, his expression solemn, like a lead cloud before the heavy snow: " Su Ziqing, on the day of the winter solstice, someone can be injured, but they must not be defeated, no one can stay in the Lin Wangfu, whether dead or alive, otherwise it is irrefutable evidence, the team of shadow guards who enter the Lin Wangfu with you will do their best to contain the people who guard Wen Yuan, you just have to go all out to break the enchantment, you must remember that within half an hour, whether you rescue Wen Yuan or not, you and Kong Qing and the shadow guards you brought in must withdraw from the Lin Wangfu and go out of the city to hide. ”
Kong Qing stretched out his hand, wanting to shake her hand, but she dodged away very quickly, he couldn't help but bow his head, the whole thing was just a game he did with Wen Yuan at first, it was intended to make King Lin discover Wen Yuan's existence, and then detain him. He wanted to use the rescue of Wen Yuan to dispel Luo Kui's doubts about him, and he also owed her a great favor, so that he could approach her naturally. But things were not as simple as he thought. It wasn't until he visited the Lin Palace's mansion at night that he realized that he had underestimated this Qingzhou, Qingzhou was far more than Luo Kui was familiar with the demon clan's exercises, and even the secret method of the Teng Snake clan was also present here.
The enchantment of Lin Wangfu to detain Wen Yuan is one of the twenty-two formations of the Teng Snake clan, this clan is known for making poison and making poison high Demon Clan, and the exercises are restrained by the exercises practiced by Kong Qing, although it is not difficult to rescue Wen Yuan by his own strength, but it is impossible to save people, and not to break the precepts in the clan, not to hurt the human race with mana, things have come to this day step by step, he has no way to retreat, and there is no way to do it, he can't really let Wen Yuan be trapped in the Lin Wangfu, let alone send a message to the clan, can only be entrusted to Luo Kui, causing her a lot of trouble, even her exhaustion, even her elite out, empty Qing heart sinks, if he day, He revealed the truth of this matter one day, but he was afraid that he would be rare for Luo Kui to believe, just that, it was difficult to turn back at this point, he could only take one step at a time, his deep eyes were dim, and he looked at Luo Kui fixedly, and smiled reluctantly: "Don't worry, with me, they will not have the slightest damage." ”
Luo Kui raised her eyes outward, rest assured, how can she rest assured, how can she believe, after many years of blood, she can only believe in Su Zi and others, she turned her eyes and swept over the deep blue eyes, wanting to see something from the still water in the deep pool, but the calm of those eyes without a trace of waves, she couldn't see anything in the end.
On the day of the winter solstice, according to the rules, Luo Kui should dress up and enter the palace to ask for peace, around her no matter how difficult she is to dress up on weekdays, she will be held down by Lilac on this day, stretching her temples, and combing a upright Feixian bun.
In the past few months, Lilac has been following Su Zi to learn to comb her hair, while pondering carefully, on the comb of her hair, there is already a momentum of blue out of blue and better than blue, and she is a girl, her hands are soft, and the comb does not hurt much, unlike every time Su Zi combs Luo Kui's hair, the yard always echoes with a sharp scream.
Holding the bronze mirror, the lilac looked left and right, felt that the bun comb was not expensive enough, simply decorated with red gold beads on the bun, pressed a red plum silk flower behind the bun, and the sideburns oblique hairpin a tired silk plum blossom swayed, the stamens of the plum blossom were made of gold wire inlaid with southern pearls, the hairpin head two strings of coral tassels hung low, the stamen trembled lightly between the actions, the tassels swayed, the southern pearl was warm and moist, the coral was delicate and flowing, and the whole person was a little less cold, more graceful and charming.
The same bead hairpin pinned to the head, Luo Kui only felt that his head was heavy and his neck hurt, but he didn't dare to say anything, on weekdays at home, even if she was wearing hair and bare feet, Su Zi would not say half a word to her, but today, she had to follow the rules.
Su Zi opened the Nanmu box with a pipa lock, and was busy rummaging through it, and finally found a narrow jacket embroidered with gold and cinnamon brocade and asked her to change it.
Luo Kui took half a step back, with a look of disgust: "This, it's too glamorous." ”
Su Zi tilted his head and said calmly: "If you want the Queen Mother to think that you are going to mourn, then wear white." ”
Luo Kui choked, the Queen Mother did talk to her, she wore like a vegetarian all day long, unlucky, she looked at the red clothes coldly, thinking about the appearance of standing next to the Queen Mother after putting it on, it was really a dutiful and festive vase, and she couldn't help but look embarrassed.
Su Zi rushed in again and rummaged through it, and found a narrow jacket with a snow-green bottom full of embroidered butterflies and flowers, and a group of honey-lotus-colored pleated makeup flowers, and shook it in front of her eyes: "What about this one." ”
Although the colors are complicated, but they are still elegant and auspicious, Luo Kui nodded reluctantly, went around the screen to change clothes, and when he came out, Su Zi had already placed a pair of embroidered shoes of the same color as the clothes on the ground.
She thought while wearing, such a caring person, but it is really difficult to find in the world, she is really a blessed person, there are great blessings, she suddenly gave birth to an ominous thought, she is so blessed now, will it be the first half of her life to exhaust all the blessings, the second half of her life to endure hardships and grow old alone, she shook her head vigorously, and chased away this bad thought.
The snow began to fall before dawn, and when the sunflower was finished, the courtyard was already white.
Push open the door, you will be greeted by a cold wind, blowing the coral tassels on the sideburns of the sunflower for a while, the wind sweeps the sleeves and skirts, and the action is really like flowers and branches all over the ground, and the end is full of spring.
Hearing the sound of the door, Kong Qing turned back suddenly, but when he saw Luo Kui, which was completely different from usual, he could not hide the amazement in his eyes, and he couldn't help himself to take a step forward, and took another step.
Unexpectedly, Jingmo ran out of the cable-lace, hugged Luo Kui and turned around, smiling from ear to ear: "Luo Kui, you are so good-looking." ”
Luo Kui was blindfolded and dizzy by his hair, and shouted to let me down, and I couldn't walk anymore.
Jingmo put her down, she held on to the pillar under the corridor, and smiled at him: "This is really a world that looks at faces, you have never treated me like this." ”
Jing Mo smiled: "You are so good-looking today." ”
Seeing this, Qu Lian slowly took a step back, leaning on the edge of the vermilion pillar under the corridor, and suddenly thought of what her aunt said, a plain and boring girl, dressed up carefully, she has a special sense of freshness, and men can't give up this bit of freshness, she secretly bit a mouthful of silver teeth, and said silently, it seems that if she wants to capture Jingmo's heart, it is not enough to have a good-looking face, but to think of some other way.
And Kong Qing's face was gloomy, and he silently retreated into the shadows, gritting his teeth and holding back the thought of wanting to knock Jingmo unconscious.
Su Zi's eyes swirled back and forth on Luo Kui and Jing Mo's faces, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that Jing Mo, the son of Jing Mo, was not worthy of being pulled by himself, and the well-bred Luo Kui had a kind of hard irrigation and care, and it was easy to grow and bloom as a masterpiece, and finally he was stolen by a bastard boy Unpleasantly, he actually gave birth to a father-in-law to look at his son-in-law, the more he looked at it, the more bored he became, but his heart suddenly froze, although the eldest brother is like a father, but in the end it is not a father, he is a brother, far from the age of being a father for Luo Kui, he glanced at Du Heng, and said lightly: " Okay, let's go, I missed the time to say goodbye, but I will punish those who kneel. ”
Du Heng understood, took the silver-red wisp gold tuanhua cloak in Lilac's hand, and covered Luo Sun's shoulders, and the dense wind hair hugged her slightly thin chin, lining her increasingly thin without a trace of blood.
Luo Kui held Du Heng's hand, and when he staggered past Su Zi, he lowered his voice and said, "I'm leaving, you are careful in everything." ”
The winter solstice family banquet in the palace has always been a palace banquet in which the princes and grandchildren get together, push the cup and change the lamp with hypocrisy, and drink to help the fun with open and secret fighting, which is often extremely rich and luxurious but tasteless. Luo Kui is really too lazy to fight wits and courage with them, feeling that eating such a meal will not only spoil the stomach, but also add gray hair, she has always accompanied the Queen Mother to have lunch in the palace, and went home early after dinner.
Today is different from usual, Luo Kui has something important to do, and needs to use that laborious dinner, and after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recovered from illness, the Queen Mother's health has not been very good.
Even if the marriage has been decided, the Queen Mother is full of reluctance, holding her hand, and sighing non-stop: "Aoi girl, my grandmother's heart hurts, if you don't promise you to the boy of the Jing family, you will have to promise it to the country of Chatani, my grandmother is reluctant to marry you far away, and she is reluctant to marry the kid of the Beijing family, hey, my grandmother originally wanted to take advantage of her breath to be able to look at a good family for you and find a good future, but in the end, I am still in a dilemma." ”
Luo Kui poured a cup of tea and handed it over, the translucent thin crisp cup revealed the green tea, the plain white bottom on the pastel phoenix through the flowers, seeing that the Queen Mother had no interest in drinking tea, she peeled an orange again, and stuffed it into the mouth of the Queen Mother: "My grandmother eats medicine and eats bitter mouth, and the orange she eats is clear." She smiled with crooked eyebrows, and the corners of her lips rose to pick out two delicate pear vortices: "Although the Jing family is down, Jingmo is pure and good, and he can be regarded as a person who can be trusted, grandmother should not be so worried, granddaughter is older, she can't rely on her grandmother for protection, in the days to come, granddaughter will always have to live slowly by herself, grandmother rest assured, Jingmo he doesn't dare to bully me, he can't beat me." ”
The Queen Mother laughed out loud, patted Luo Kui's cheek gently, and scolded the stinky girl with a smile.
As she spoke, Mama Lin led several maids in, each holding a brocade box of different sizes, followed by several maids, and the four of them carried a half-person-high Nanmu box.
The Queen Mother took Luo Kui's hand, walked to everyone, looked at her and said kindly: "Come, look at your dowry, and the clothes and jewelry next to you are fine." She lifted her chin, "These are the most important things." ”
