Xiao Jinyan looked at Dongfang Nuannuan carefully, as if he wanted to distinguish the truth from her expression, he had been confused by Dongfang Nuannuan, since he knew this woman, he had been played by her, and he couldn't tell which sentence was true and which one was false.

This woman is not simple and unfathomable. The longer you know this woman, the less you know what she's thinking, and that feeling is like a fog.

And the warmth of the east is hidden in this fog.

He asked, "Where is Yu Wenshuang?"

"I'll tell you when the time comes. ”

Dongfang Nuannuan stood up, opened the door, and prepared to send off the guests.

Xiao Jinyan had just gone out when he heard a shout from the backyard, "Catch the assassin!" He looked up and saw Huang Xixiang holding his pants in one hand, performing light skills, and running towards him.

Xiao Jinyan beckoned to him, "Come here!"

Huang Xixiang glanced back at the pursuers and said, "Brother Xue, I'll help you lead them away, you run to the east, I'm doing a good job, they can't catch me." ”

After that, he turned around and jumped onto the city wall, "Lao Tzu is here, you have the ability to catch me!"

Xiao Jinyan didn't expect that this person would be so righteous, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed, not long ago, he wanted to use Huang Xixiang to infiltrate the palace.

Several figures flashed, Xiao Jinyan strode forward, and the Peerless Divine Fist swung out, intercepting the three masters of the Knowing Xuan Realm, buying Huang Xixiang some time to escape.

In this way, he himself was trapped.

Xiao Jinyan was not in a hurry at all, and led the pursuers to flee to the other side. A sword wind descended from the sky, swept up a gust of wind, and rushed towards him.

It was the Wild Wave Sword Lu Mortal.

"Lie down!"

Xiao Jinyan took off a green brick with his hand, his internal force worked, and he stepped to the position of Lu prisoner, and a brick slapped on his head.

Airplanes!

Lu Fanren's head buzzed, his eyes glowed with golden light, he swayed two steps, and his standing was unsteady. Xiao Jinyan crossed the wall and came to an inner courtyard.

All the pursuers stopped moving.

There are rules in the palace, the inner courtyard is the place where the female dependents live, and they are not allowed to enter without the permission of the master.

Xiao Jinyan didn't care about this, pushed the door in, and a cold light rushed in front of him, it was a bright short dagger, he blocked it casually, knocked the short dagger away, and easily restrained the other party.

Xiao Jinyan said, "Don't speak, you can live." ”

The other party said, "Xiao Jinyan?"

Only then did Xiao Jinyan recognize that this person was the Spring of the Crescent Moon. He inadvertently broke into her room, but now that he was wearing Xue Donglai's mask, how did he recognize the Crescent Moon Spring?

He lowered his voice and said hoarsely, "The girl has recognized the wrong person." ”

The Spring of the Crescent Moon said, "A person's appearance can wear makeup, but the smell on his body can't change. I remember the smell on you. ”

Xiao Jinyan saw that his identity was exposed, so he had to say, "It's me." ”

The Crescent Moon Fountain's face was full of joy and said, "You're here for me?"

Xiao Jinyan hesitated for a moment, and decided to tell the truth, "I'm here to find someone." ”

The Crescent Moon Spring sighed and said quietly, "In your heart, there has never been me. On the occasion of the Moon Festival, this was the first time she and Xiao Jinyan had spoken.

Xiao Jinyan wanted to comfort her very much, but when the words reached her throat, she couldn't say it. At this time, Lu Fanren outside the door shouted, "Princess, there is an assassin breaking in, we are worried about your safety, please open the door." ”

The Crescent Moon Fountain said, "I'm fine here, you won't be dazzled." ”

Lu Fan said, "Princess, your safety is very important, if there is a mistake, once the prince is blamed, we can't afford it, or open the door, let's search it is more appropriate." ”

The Crescent Moon Fountain said angrily, "Presumptuous. Lu Fanren, in the middle of the night, you trespassed into my house, what are Ande's intentions?"

Tonight's incident, Lu Fanren is the head of the palace guards, if he can't catch the assassin, he will inevitably be responsible, and he can't explain to the prince, so he decided to break in.

"Could it be that the princess was coerced?"

The Crescent Moon Fountain said, "Why are you so annoying?"

Lu Fan said, "Because my name is Lu Fanren." He didn't dare to be careless, and ordered, "Go in, search!"

"Wait!"

Someone outside shouted, "Everyone, get out of here!"

"See King Chengxian!"

It turned out that Chu Xian, who lived in the courtyard next door, heard the movement here, got up and walked over, King Chengxian's face was gloomy, "General Lu, in the middle of the night, you broke into the princess's mansion, what are your intentions?"

Lu Fan said, "Lord, there are assassins sneaking in the mansion tonight, we are tracking all the way, and we are afraid that something will happen to the princess, so we are a little reckless, and please forgive us." ”

King Chengxian coughed for a while, and a servant girl stepped forward to beat him on the back, and after a while, he came to the door and asked, "Is the princess resting?"

The Crescent Moon Spring patted Xiao Jinyan's hand, took off a robe, draped it on his body, and pushed open the door, "Lord Xie cares, I'm fine." ”

King Chengxian glared at Lu Fanren and said, "You saw it, why are you still stunned?

Lu Fan said, "Since it's okay, why don't we let our brother go in and search!"

King Chengxian said loudly, "Presumptuous, you slave, do you really regard the palace as your mansion?"

Lu Fanren even knelt down, "Don't dare!"

"Get out. ”

Lu Fanren held back his anger, glanced at King Chengxian, and led his men out of the mansion. The crescent moon spring was full of salutes and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”

King Chengxian snorted, and was about to enter the house, when the Crescent Moon Spring stopped in front of him, he snorted coldly, pushed her aside, and came to the house.

The Crescent Moon Spring's heart thumped, and he was relieved to find that Xiao Jinyan had left.

King Chengxian said, "What about people?"

The Crescent Moon Spring was stunned, "What do you mean?"

King Chengxian said, "Although this king is a sick man, he is not a fool. Just now, this king doesn't demolish you, because he doesn't want the lintel to be humiliated. ”

The Fountain of the Crescent Moon fell to its knees.

"Get up. ”

King Chengxian picked up the teacup, took a sip of water, and coughed suddenly,

The Spring of the Crescent Moon stepped forward to beat him on the back, and after a while, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The imperial doctor said that I can't live for three or five years because of my illness, and I have indeed wronged you by letting you marry me." ”

Even though the Crescent Moon Spring was unwilling in his heart, but at this moment, his future husband opened his mouth like this, his heart softened, and said, "I didn't do anything to be sorry for the prince. ”

"It's good to know. "Chengxian Wang said, "Since I was a child, I have understood that I am just a chess piece in my father's hands, in front of him, I am submissive, for fear of making him angry, but even if it is a chess piece, I also have my own dignity, after I die, I don't care what you want." But as long as this king is here, you have to put your mind away and be my princess Chengxian with peace of mind!"

King Chengxian paused for a moment and said, "Think about your people on the Lingding Sea, you should know how to choose. ”

The Crescent Moon Fountain looked down on this man very much in her heart, but tonight's words impressed her. The emperor is ruthless, as a royal nobleman, he has heard and seen it since he was a child, how could he not see through this, but this fatal illness made him destined to be a short-lived person after all, even if there was infinite revenge in his heart, he could only sigh.

Chengxian Wang said, "I have been reading military books since I was a child, learning literature and martial arts, although outstanding, but still not satisfied with my father, when I was seven years old, he used drugs to forcibly improve my internal strength, I ended up with a disease, my father searched for famous doctors, after all, could not be cured, and gradually disappointed in me in recent years." After some time, on the day of your wedding, my father forced my uncle to make me the crown prince, and you must have guessed the purpose. ”

Since she decided to marry into the palace, Li Desert has analyzed the situation of the Great Chu court very thoroughly, as long as the crown prince is established, the life of the current emperor has come to an end, and Chu Xian has become the new emperor, and King Baoji has become the emperor, with his control ** and influence in the court, even if he can't be the emperor, he can become the king of kings.

"I only hate that I am full of ambitions!" Chengxian said, "Don't worry, in the future, you will help me give birth to a son and a half daughter, and I will clear all obstacles for him before I die!"

Between the words, King Chengxian had a ruthless meaning, and then he coughed violently, his cheeks were crimson, and he could barely breathe.

......

Xiao Jinyan walked out of the palace and met Lu Fanren who was waiting on the side of the road.

"The princess protected you, and the prince let you go, but you couldn't escape from the palm of my hand. ”

Xiao Jinyan was surprised and asked, "Are you Rulai?"

Lu Fanren said lightly, "Your martial arts skills are good, just now I looked away, and I fell in love with your way, and I went down to the Wild Wave Sword Lu Fanren, and asked my brother for a lesson or two." ”

"Wild waves?"

"Yes, wild waves, it's an attitude. If you are caught, someone Lu may give you a good time. ”

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "It's crazy." ”

The knife is unsheathed.

People are like dragons.

Lu Fanren held the knife in both hands, stepped forward, mobilized all his strength, and slashed towards Xiao Jinyan. Xiao Jinyan didn't think about it, touched the bricks on his waist, and had confidence in his heart, so he didn't retreat but advanced, and rushed towards the raging wave knife.

Staggered figures.

Lu Fanren saw that his long knife was about to slash Xiao Jinyan, and suddenly there was no figure of him in front of him, and then there was a sharp pain in his head.

Slab bricks crushed.

The blood of the arrows flowed from the forehead.

Xiao Jinyan threw the remaining bricks on the ground, "It's crazy, it's crazy, it's just not enough waves." ”

He sneered, quickened his pace, and fled into the distance.

"Brother Xue, come here!"

Xiao Jinyan saw Huang Xixiang beckoning in the distance, so he stepped up his pace and ran towards him. The two found a place to stay.

Huang Xixiang said, "It's so dangerous! That guy's martial arts are good, if it weren't for my fast feet, I'm afraid I would have become a ghost under his knife." Brother Xue, I haven't seen you for a few years, how did your martial arts become so powerful?"

Xiao Jinyan didn't want to answer his question, so he made up his mind that after he went back, he would take off the mask, and he would never need this mask again, he changed the topic, "How is your flower picking plan?" Huang Xixiang's face turned red, "Don't mention it." Lao Tzu smells the fragrance and knows women, and he has never missed it, but tonight he confessed to it. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"I don't say, and you don't have to ask. ”

Xiao Jinyan was curious, "You and I are both two heroes in the dust, if you do things like this, your brothers will not have to do it in the future." ”

Huang Xixiang crossed his heart, and then said, "Don't hide it, in the past two days, I met a maid in the city, that girl looks like a watery spirit, and there is a jasmine fragrance on her body, I went to look for her tonight, and I found an old eunuch who was covered in fat powder, what a fucking bad luck!"

Xiao Jinyan laughed, sweeping away the frustration caused by the previous defeat under Dongfang Nuannuan's hands.

"Let's go, drink flower wine. ”

Xiao Jinyan said, "The thief's heart is not dead?"

"If you can't pick flowers, it's always okay to spend your own money, and by the way, go to the bad luck on your body. ”

Xiao Jinyan found an excuse to excuse himself, but Huang Xixiang couldn't resist it, so he had to make an appointment to meet at another time and leave alone.

Back at the hall, it was already the third watch.

Xiao Jinyan lay on the bed, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. Visiting the palace tonight, after listening to Dongfang Nuannuan's words, Xiao Jinyan was deeply touched.

Shujian Mountain, as if it has become a mystery.

Is it true that as Yuwen Tianlu and Li Chuntie said, those sword guards, as well as the Supreme Heavenly Dao, want to turn the world into a scorched earth? Or is it as Dongfang Nuan Nuan said, Shujian Mountain is just restoring order in the world?

In any case, if this happens, I'm afraid the whole world will be in chaos. will kill a lot of people, this is what Xiao Jinyan does not want to see, but others are weak and have no power to change at all.

In the midst of his thoughts, the sky grew brighter.

Xiao Jinyan couldn't sleep, so he simply sat on the bed and practiced.

As soon as he settled, he sensed that something was wrong.

The strange force in Xijing City interfered with his string power, making him unable to control the True Yuan of Heaven and Earth at all.

Nameless gun.

It's in the middle of the palace.

If in the past, the string force could detect things within a hundred zhang of the surrounding area, but today, this string force was swept into the abyss by the nameless spear in the palace.

The mysterious words of Dongfang Nuan Nuan sounded in my mind.

"In the illusion of Shujian Mountain, the Supreme Heavenly Dao is awakening. ”

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Suddenly, Xiao Jinyan's mind was blank, his whole person seemed to fall into endless darkness, in the darkness, there was only a point of light in the distance, he wanted to lean over, but found that he couldn't move.

The point of light is getting bigger and bigger, and it is coming closer to this side.

It turned out to be a mirror.

Xiao Jinyan looked over and was immediately frightened by the scene in front of him.

The whole world was overwhelmed, the sky was full of dark clouds, the sun turned red, there were barren mountains everywhere, there was not a single tree, not even a single grass.

Broken and ruined, a mess.

The city has long been dilapidated, and there is no trace of the living.

He looked down on the world from the sky, the Yellow River dried up, and yellow sand flew everywhere. At the top of Mount Tai, there is no sea of clouds, mountains and fog, but shrouded in a cyan vine, and there is a viscous cyan liquid everywhere, which makes people evil.

He looked farther away.

Between heaven and earth, twelve looming powers crisscrossed and crisscrossed, like a huge net, and the entire earth was shrouded in a vast expanse.

There is a force among them, Xiao Jinyan is extremely familiar.

It was that string in him.

What is it?

Is it an illusion? or is it the future?

Xiao Jinyan trembled all over, an inexplicable fear arose in his heart, he felt that his mouth was dry, and with a buzz in his mind, the whole person fainted.

When I woke up, it was dawn.

Xiao Jinyan was soaking wet.

A little maid pushed the door in, sent grooming utensils, just washed up, Buda pushed the door in, and said, "Brother Xiao, get up?"

Seeing that Xiao Jinyan's face was not good, he glanced at the little maid again, and said with a smile, "Could it be that he didn't sleep well last night?"

The little maid blushed and walked out.

Xiao Jinyan smiled bitterly, "I had a nightmare last night. ”

"Maybe I've been too tired these days. Find someone like this, take your time, don't be in a hurry, these two days, let's relax. ”

"What's wrong?"

Buda said with a smile, "Every winter, the royal family has to go to the Shuquan Palace to worship their ancestors, and this year, thanks to the blessing of the crescent spring, our Kupang Hall is also invited, and Guoyan asked us to go together." ”

Xiao Jinyan didn't want to go.

He was still immersed in the nightmare of the previous night, and wanted to go find the white tea again and ask her to help with the idea, but he couldn't resist Buda's kind invitation.

"In addition to worshipping ancestors, there are hunting grounds and hot springs in the palace, not only the emperor and the prince are going to go, but also the dignitaries and leaders of the royal court in the entire Great Chu Dynasty will go. ”

Xiao Jinyan said, "I'm not from Chu, so I'm not interested in this." ”

Buda was a little embarrassed and said, "It's not a secret, I want to use my brother's strength to show my face in the competition, but I know very well how many catties and taels I have, so Guoyan gave me this idea." ”

In the past few days, Buda has been busy with the matter of finding Yu Wenshuang and Xiao Jinyan, and he has been very concerned, there is no merit, and there is hard work.

When they came to the front yard, Li Desert and Ali were ready to go.

Li Desert wore a Hanfu, his head was tied with red silk, a cloak was worn, and a long sword was hung around his waist, and the whole person was in good spirits.

Ali and Buda both wore Kupang costumes, with braids on the top of their heads, and short sheepskin robes, which made them look very capable.

Li Desert said, "Today, I traveled with the car, and prepared a few sets of clothes for Brother Xiao, and I am in a hurry, I hope you don't dislike it." ”

Xiao Jinyan saw that in the tray, there was a martial arts suit, and there were robes on the outside, and there were a lot of jade pendants and hostas, which were very traditional Central Plains costumes.

"It is true that there is a saying among you that a man depends on his clothes and a horse depends on his saddle. ”

The palace was built twenty miles outside Xijing, and the emperor's car would travel in the afternoon, and all the officials and royal court leaders would arrive at the city gate before noon to greet the emperor and then follow the convoy.

It has entered the wax moon.

It had snowed a few days ago, and there was still snow on the road, and on the long street, several young dignitaries stepped on horseback, splashing a piece of mud, which caused pedestrians to scold angrily.

Xiao Jinyan saw it on the side, and sighed secretly in his heart, the powerful are in power, whether it is in Daming or Western Chu, it is no different.

When the young man at the head saw Li Desert, he said in a strange manner, "Isn't this Li Desert of the Kubang tribe, how can it be that this year, a woman has been sacrificed in the clan and has the opportunity to go to Shuquan to leave the palace with an edict?"

Buda was furious when he heard this, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Li Desert and said in a low voice, "This person is Tong Xinglian, the son of Tong Fang of Zuo Wangting, and he married a woman from the Huole clan, so he has a lot of opinions about the Kubang clan. We can't afford to offend, at least for now. ”

Seeing that they didn't answer, the man was even more unscrupulous, "I advise you, it's better to go back to Liuli Lake to raise horses, you can't come to this kind of place, and you don't deserve it!"

A carriage passed by and stopped.

King Chengxian lifted the curtain, revealing half of his face, and said in a low voice: "Why, they are friends of this king, if you have any opinions, you can talk to this king." ”

Seeing this, the young man turned over and dismounted, with his hands crossed on his chest, "I've seen Prince Chengxian." ”

"Young Master Tong, I haven't seen you for a few months, your arrogant temper still hasn't changed?"

Although Tong Xinglian mocked Li Desert and everyone just now, he still didn't dare to make a mistake in the face of King Chengxian, especially this King Chengxian, who is very likely to become the heir to the throne of Great Chu.

"The old boy didn't dare to make a mistake. ”

King Chengxian coughed twice and said, "I heard that the second lady in your house has tuberculosis and is bedridden, I got a new prescription from a Langzhong, but it doesn't work yet, I prepared two pairs of medicines and sent them to your second lady first, I don't know what?"

Tong Xinglian hurriedly said, "Thanks to the prince, my wife has been lying in bed for more than two years, took the medicine given by the prince, and went to the ground the next day." ”

King Chengxian's expression eased, "So effective?"

Tong Xing Lian shook his head, "No, it's buried in the ground." ”
