Chapter 458: Dead Jade
"What the third brother wants to say, just say it, there is nothing to taboo about the little sister. Luo Kui smiled.
King Lin bowed deeply: "I know that my little sister is well aware of righteousness, so I won't hide it, just say it, my little sister saw Hou Ye, he didn't die back then, but was detained by the prince, I don't dare to tell my little sister, first, I am afraid that my little sister will not believe it, and second, the prince has been threatening the life of Aunt Yue's daughter, I don't dare to do it." ”
"Yuegu," Luo Kui frowned: "Yuegu, who is Yuegu, it sounds familiar." ”
"Yes, Aunt Yue, have you forgotten her. King Lin tilted his head and smiled gently: "When you were young, Aunt Yue came to see you a few times, do you remember?" ”
The appearance of a gentle girl appeared in her mind, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were tender like water, and she nodded: "Yes, my father talked about her." ”
King Lin bowed: "Yes, Yuegu was a disciple of Hou Ye back then, and she gave it to me as a companion, but it was actually to stare at me." He smiled slightly, as if he didn't care about the events of the year at all: "It's just that Yuegu later defected and no longer obeyed Hou Ye's orders, but Hou Ye was generous and didn't do it right."
The betrayed Yuegu took her life, spared her life, and gave her a life-saving pill. He smiled: "It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous that it was the queen mother who couldn't tolerate her, and she ignored my pleadings and insisted on giving Aunt Yue to Qu Tianxiong as a concubine." ”
"Qu Tianxiong, be a concubine. Luo Kui was taken aback: "So, then who is Yuegu's daughter, yes, is it Qu Lian, what about Yuegu, what happened to her." ”
"Yes, it's Qu Lian. King Lin sighed: "Back then, Qu Tianxiong used my safety to force her to plant heavenly poison on the newborn you, she pretended to poison in front of him, but in fact, she led the poison to her own body, and has been suppressing it with her own cultivation, and then she gave birth to Qu Lian and became poisonous." Qu Tianxiong only then knew that she did not poison you, so she simply did it to you herself, and refused to treat Yuegu, and finally Yuegu died of poison, and it was only after these years that I found out these things and managed to move Yuegu's tomb into my mansion. ”
Luo Kui sighed, Yuegu was her father's personal disciple, but she entered the Lin Wangfu before she was born, and she was not too impressed by her, but in her father's description several times, there was a shadow of a gentle girl, but I didn't expect that the people had passed away and annihilated the world. She sighed: "The third brother is affectionate, and she will understand Aunt Yue's intentions." She raised her eyes: "It turns out that on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was really the third brother and Qu Lian who were playing, just to plot the shadow Gu on Su Zi's body." ”
King Lin smiled calmly: "Yes, I just wanted to bring Qu Lian's cultivation to a closer level, and by the way, I broke my little sister's arm, but I didn't expect that my little sister was so affectionate to Manager Su that she even risked her life to save him, I sometimes wonder why there is no such person around me who values love and righteousness." ”
"Yuegu lost her life for the third brother, and her friendship for the third brother is heavier than my friendship for Suzi. Luo Kui lowered his eyes and stared for a long time before he spoke: "The purpose of the third brother's coming here is clear." ”
King Lin took a sip of tea and said slowly: "The little sister and the Hou Ye assisted the prince to do their best, but he did this to the Hou Ye, I am not worth it for the little sister and the Hou Ye, the prince was imprisoned for this incident, and it can be regarded as compensating for the grievances of the Hou Ye for several years, in fact, I have no grudge against the little sister, and the prince is the same in terms of blood relatives. ”
Luo Kui said with a smile: "The third brother is now in the sky, how can he use the little sister, but the little sister still has to say more, the third brother, if the sun is in the sky, you have to be careful of the sunset." ”
In the middle of the autumn night, the insects chirp in a low voice.
In the swaying lights, Luo Kui held the piece of dead jade, looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, this piece of jade was cold but hot, reluctant to throw it, but couldn't use it, throwing it away was the life of his father, and it was the lives of hundreds of thousands of people who were killed.
Su Zi approached and asked thoughtfully, "How is it, is this dead jade useful to my father-in-law?" ”
Luo Kui's head: "Naturally, there is, and it is very useful, but." She hesitated: "But such a hurtful thing, Su Zi, I really don't have the courage to do it." ”
"The father-in-law's situation is not so urgent and allows us to think about it, but the prince's situation is not so good. Su Zi handed over the letterhead: "Your Majesty has made a decision on the matter of the crown prince. ”
Looking at it word by word, Luo Kui stared at Su Zi's eyes, wanting to find out what answer: "Su Zi, do you believe the prince, do you think the prince would do such a thing." ”
Su Zi drank a cup of tea and shook his head: "I don't believe it, we have been friends with the prince for more than ten years, and I still trust his temperament and character." ”
Luo Kui held the Dead Jade tightly, was speechless for a while, and only spoke for a long time: "Maybe we won't need the Dead Jade, my Hundred Gu Blood can suppress the Hundred Gu in my father's body." ”
In the middle of the night, the moonlight is quiet.
The dead jade hung in front of Su Zi, seeing Luo Kui bowing his head slightly at him, he took a deep breath, and a white light fell on the pitch-black jade, the jade body trembled lightly and made a buzzing sound, and the moonlight was suddenly shrouded, and countless wisps of various colors escaped from the jade, hovering in the air.
Everywhere he looked, there was a little light, and Luo Kui sighed and said softly: "You guys go." She sighed silently, if she didn't have a way to save her father, this dead jade really had to be used, and she felt that it was a good deal to exchange the lives of hundreds of thousands of people for her father's life.
Just as Su Zi released hundreds of thousands of essences in the dead jade, a piece of dead jade in King Lin's hand suddenly flashed with a faint light, and then after a slight sound, the dead jade turned into powder and disappeared in the wind.
King Lin stared at the place where the dead jade disappeared, and only smiled coldly for a long time: "It's really ruthless to let these untouchables go." Looks like it's going to have to be planned. ”
It was a full moon night again, Luo Kui was busy in the Hehuan Pavilion for half the night, successfully prepared the antidote, and then took a long breath and drank a cup of fragrant tea, but he heard a commotion outside, Du Heng pushed the door in, and said eagerly: "Master, King Xuan is here, he is shouting outside to come in, and General Su is going to stop him." ”
"Sixth brother. Luo Kui sneered: "He really thinks that he hasn't been scolded enough, if those old-fashioned imperial historians know that he came to this kind of place, they will have to play this book again." ”
After a while, Su Zi pushed the door in with a solemn expression, poured a sip of tea, and choked a little cough.
"Sixth brother, how did you send him. ”
Su Zi said with a smile: "I told him, when I came, I met Zuodu Yushi at the door, and today it seems that there is a big move on Hehuan Pavilion." ”
"Sixth brother has always been timid, don't scare him out. Aoi laughed.
Su Zi took out an object and handed it over with some solemnity: "Look at this." ”
"What is this. Luo Kui fixed her eyes, it was a red pill, sparkling in the palm of her hand, as dazzling as blood, she shook it slightly, fine and dense sweat oozed from her palm, penetrating the pill, she whispered in surprise: "It's a streamer, there is a streamer in this pill, Suzi, where did this pill come from." ”
Su Zi nodded: "I deceived King Xuan, I heard him say, this is the elixir that King Lin Jin offered to His Majesty, King Xuan felt rare, and begged his mother to ask for a few pills from His Majesty, I felt familiar when I saw this elixir, and the color of your streamer was too similar." ”
"King Lin offered it. Luo Kui concentrated, took out a red nematode as thin as a gossamer from the elixir, and immediately put it into a jar like ice, and considered: "It seems that someone wants to turn His Majesty into his puppet, but I don't know if it is King Lin's plan or someone else." ”
As he was talking, Du Heng hurriedly came in, bowed down and said, "Master, something happened." He paused slightly, and continued: "Your Majesty has only made several wills and retreated the 100,000 troops stationed on the border inward for thirty miles, and the entire border has been exposed to the Tianmu Kingdom. ”
"What. Luo Kui and Su Zi got up together and exclaimed, "The Tianmu Kingdom has been eyeing me Yunchu for several years, how could Your Majesty make such a fundamental will to self-destruct." ”
Luo Kui moved his eyes to look at the pill that had been shattered into powder, and sighed long: "It's the streamer, the streamer has worked." ”
There seems to be a back garden in each deep house compound, few people set foot in it, and the Lin Wangfu is no exception, Lie Dang led Luo Kui and Su Zi, bypassed a few pavilions and pavilions, turned around into a quiet garden, and saw a lonely tomb hidden in the night, the fierce maple leaves between the graves swished in the autumn wind, like a frightened bird, spreading its wings and ready to fly.
A vague figure sits withered, holding a cup in one hand and a wine jug in the other, the aroma of wine drifting far away with the night breeze, becoming more and more mellow.
Luo Kui looked behind him for a long time, and finally opened his mouth with the slight cold of the night breeze: "Third brother, it's late at night, tell Aunt Yue to rest early, it's good for our brothers and sisters to talk." ”
"Liedang, pack up. King Lin got up slowly, looked at Luo Kui and said with a smile: "My little sister is weak, and I can't afford to suffer from the cold in the wind." ”
Sitting down in the study, Liedang poured a cup of tea and handed it to Luo Kui, King Lin smiled: "I heard that my little sister likes Laojun tea, so I specially prepared it." ”
Luo Kui nodded: "The third brother has a heart, and he actually calculated that the little sister will definitely come to visit." Without waiting for King Lin to speak, she continued in a deep voice: "Your Majesty's will, the third brother knows, don't you have anything to say to the little sister." ”
King Lin smiled calmly: "Is the little sister here to ask about the guilt?" ”
Luo Kui got up suddenly, staring at him with eyes that pressed step by step: "Could it be that the third brother wants to watch the Yunchu Kingdom become the bag of the Tianmu Kingdom, and the third brother wants to become a sinner who slaughtered the city and destroyed the country." She paused slightly, took a step closer, and could even clearly see the beads of sweat on the tip of his nose: "Could it be that the third brother can bear the verbal criticism of future generations." ”
"Now let's talk about this, it's a little late, little sister. King Lin shook his head: "However, fortunately, I am not the only one who is a sinner, and I am not the only one who will be criticized. ”
"Third brother. Luo Kui suddenly shouted: "Third brother, it's too late, the army of Tianmu Country hasn't come in yet, and Your Majesty's poison hasn't penetrated into the bone marrow, so it's too late." ”
King Lin's eyes dodged, and he hesitated for a while, this incident was a great crime to say, not to mention that it was a great disaster, and he finally said with difficulty: "A few months ago, Chi Shao entered the palace, I fell in love with her at first sight, she gave me no old medicine, let me sacrifice it to my father, so as to restore favor and protect myself." He pursed his dry lips and continued: "After I entered the Yeting Prison, I learned that the elixir was poisoned with people's minds, little sister, I didn't mean to, I just protected myself, I never thought of destroying the country." ”
"Chi Peony is a person from the Chaoyin Hall of Tianmu Country, and she has always been good at ** techniques, you don't blame you for her way, the most important thing at the moment is to solve Your Majesty's poison. Luo Kui looked at him sincerely: "Third brother, now that the situation is critical, the only one Yun Chu can rely on is you." ”
King Lin spoke without hesitation: "What should I do, you just have to say." ”
Luo Kui stared: "Please ask the third brother to close the four gates of Qingzhou and Miyagi, and everyone is allowed to enter but not to leave." ”
This is destined to be a sleepless night, when sitting in the Shui family, the east is twilight, it is a ray of light that tears through the darkness before dawn, Luo Kui drank a cup of tea and ordered: "Suzi, how many garrisons of the Southern Qi Kingdom can you mobilize." ”
"On the border of Tianmu Country, there are about 5,000 people. Suzi groaned.
"Five thousand, that's enough. Luo Kui narrowed his eyes and smiled: "You arranged for them to pretend to be miners from various countries, remember, it must be from various countries, and they dug the gold mine we found at the junction of the three countries half a year ago, and it is best to shock all countries if they dig it with great fanfare." In this way, Tianmu Kingdom will definitely focus on the gold mine, and there is no spare energy, at least at the moment, there is no spare energy to stare at Yun Chu Kingdom. She paused slightly, and continued: "Your Majesty is not deeply poisoned now, and he still has his own sober consciousness, Du Heng, arrange for the imperial doctor to ask for the pulse of Chi Shao, let her recuperate on the grounds that she is suffering from a chronic illness, and arrange the people who watch the stars to make His Majesty believe that the stars of Chi Peony this year are ominous and unfavorable, and it is inconvenient to serve." She looked up at the window, and a faint light from the darkness came in: "After the palace door is opened, Juniper will follow me into the palace to detoxify Your Majesty." ”
As soon as the words fell, Lilac hurried in and shouted anxiously: "Master, it's not good, the old master is gone." ”
In the deep palace, there are many dusty palaces, where the former owners are either prominent or depressed, and finally all return to dust, along with the magnificent palaces, are forgotten.
At the beginning of Emperor Chu's ascension to the throne, he was still diligent, but decades passed, and he grew older, and his energy was not strong enough to deal with state affairs. It's just that after every indulgence and pleasure, it is difficult to sleep, staring at a pair of eyes and waiting for the dawn has become a common thing, but during the day it becomes more and more sleepy, and the state affairs are delayed day by day.
Raising his hand and stretching his waist, he looked sideways at the beauty sleeping peacefully in his arms, Emperor Chu quietly got out of bed barefoot, put on a bright yellow bedrobe and stood under the window for a long time.
Hearing the movement behind him, he turned around in a panic, only to see a thin figure shrouded in the shadows, quietly standing on the edge of the bed, looking at him calmly as before, he opened his mouth and exclaimed: "You, how are you, you are not, not already, come on, come on." ”
The man smiled: "Your Majesty doesn't need to scream, my Majesty doesn't know my ability, if you want to be unconscious, let Your Majesty shout out your throat, no one will hear it." ”
Emperor Chu looked at the bed in horror, this exclamation really had no effect on the beauty, she still didn't move and slept peacefully, he took a step back and sat down in the chair: "You, what do you want to do." ”
The man still smiled: "I haven't seen you for a few years, I just want to catch up with Your Majesty." ”
After all, Emperor Chu went through wind and rain, and soon calmed down, and his face was gloomy: "I don't seem to have anything to talk about with you." He sighed: "Heaven is nothing, you know what you are capable of, since you faked your death and left, what did you come back to do?" ”
"I'm here to save you. Guan Neihou Shuitian raised his hand slightly, and the red light escaped from his fingertips and swirled around the beauty, and a cinnabar mole as red as blood on her chest trembled slightly, and a red nematode as thin as a gossamer drilled out of it.
At this time, Emperor Chu's head was as if it had been eaten by ten thousand insects, and he couldn't lift it in pain, he hugged his head and was drenched in cold sweat, and tried his best to speak: "This is, what is this, pain, pain." At this time, he looked hideous and terrifying, dozens of fiery red nematodes accompanied by black and red bloodstains, slowly burrowing out of his seven orifices, and the blood was dripping and penetrating into his bedclothes.
Guannei Hou Shuitian Wu put all the nematodes into the box, his fingertips moved slightly, and a white mist pill fell into the mouth of Emperor Chu, and he said in a deep voice: "I fell into trouble after faking my death, this woman saved me, I taught her the Streamer Gu, I never thought that she used it on His Majesty, this Gu technique can make people immortal, but it will gradually become a puppet of the Gu people." ”
Raising his hand to wipe the blood on his face, Emperor Chu was still shocked, looked at the beauty whose life and death were unknown, and said fiercely: "Damn, I treated her so well, she actually tried to kill me." Tianwu, you saved my life again, I, how should I repay. ”
Guan Neihou Shuitian only smiled: "Originally, I didn't want to meet Your Majesty, Your Majesty's jealousy of me, I know, it's just that Zhaoyi left a message on his deathbed, asking me to save your life no matter what, I can't lie to her, of course, I won't stay in Qingzhou for a long time, you can rest assured." ”
As soon as he heard that Hou Shui Tianwu in Guannei would eventually leave Qingzhou, Emperor Chu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his face did not leak a single bit, and he pretended to be concerned and asked: "Then Tianwu, where are you going in the future." ”
Guan Neihou Shuitian had no eyes flashing, and still smiled: "This doesn't matter if Your Majesty is too worried, in short, I have always been a dead man in Yunchu Kingdom." He changed his words, half vigilant and half threatening: "It's just that I have flesh and blood relatives left in this world, and I will never give up." Your Majesty, Luokui's life is hard, and you have to work hard for Your Majesty in the future. ”
Emperor Chu was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "That's natural, I, as an uncle, have to take care of my niece no matter what." ”
Hearing this, Hou Shuitian in Guan Nei breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he had already had an old injury that had not healed, and now he had added a new injury to Emperor Chu's Gu Solution, but he was afraid that there would be few days left.
