Gao Chongde saw that everyone was stunned, and couldn't help but be very proud: "There is no place to find when you step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them." Miss Haisha, it's time for you to get moving!"

Ayimu was curious: "Why did the master say this?"

Gao Chongde said with a smile: "No matter who you were before, from today onwards, you will be the 'Princess of Western Xia'!"

Suddenly, someone outside the door laughed and said: "Who is the 'Xixia Princess', Gao Painter, your masterpiece has finally been painted, isn't it?" Before the words fell, the door was opened, and a young man strode in, this person was about seventeen or eighteen years old, although his skin was slightly dark, but he was very handsome, wearing a white robe and a white mink hat, luxurious and compelling.

I saw this Xixia young man go straight to the painter Gao, and take a look at him, his demeanor was exactly the same as when Gao Chongde first saw Ayimu, he was stunned, and said straightly: "How can there be such a beautiful woman in this world, how can there be such beautiful eyes?"

The guard said cautiously on the side: "Meet His Majesty the Prince!" Hu Zhenbang and the three of them said in their hearts: "It turns out that this person is the prince." ”

It turned out that the young man who entered the door was none other than Ning Lingge, the crown prince of Western Xia. This Ning Lingge is Li Yuanhao's second son, and his mother is Li Yuanhao's first queen, Ye Li. Empress Yeli had three sons, and the youngest son, Li Xici, died a few days after he was born. The eldest son, the crown prince Ning Ming, has been smart and studious since he was a child, knowledgeable and reasonable, and understands righteousness, and is the best candidate to inherit the throne, but he is benevolent by nature, does not like glory and wealth, and believes in Taoism, not only is he not interested in Li Yuanhao's heroic hegemony at all, but also often accuses him of indiscriminate killing and abstinence, which makes his son Li Yuanhao angry, and decrees that Ning Ming is not allowed to appear in front of him.

Ning Ming didn't have any desires or desires, so he only cared about learning the skill of Bigu with the Taoist priest Lu Xiuhuan, but he didn't expect to go crazy and die. Although Li Yuanhao was a little sad about his death, he also said that he wanted to set up his second son Ning Lingge as the prince, it turned out that he had already doted on his second son Ning Lingge, but he was afraid that it would not make sense not to set up the eldest son as the prince, and the ministers would also oppose it, so he could only choose Ning Ming as the prince. Now that Ning Ming is dead, it is his own life that he did not become the prince, which just fulfilled Li Yuanhao's wish.

Three years ago, Ayimu was confined in Li Yuanhao's West Palace, closed doors, so he had never seen this prince, and Brother Ning Lingge heard that his father had kidnapped a beautiful woman from the mouth of his mother, Yeli, so he asked him to find an opportunity to kill this woman, so as not to harm Li Yuanhao and miss state affairs. However, later Ye Li heard that this woman was forcing Li Yuanhao to die, and would rather die than obey, so he gave up.

This prince has been fighting abroad all the year round, and he is not as lustful as Li Yuanhao, so he never thought of taking a look at the legendary beautiful woman who would rather die than obey his father, but later heard that his father was going to marry this woman to the prince of Tubo as a "Xixia princess", so he was a little curious, but before he saw his true face, this "Xixia princess" person had disappeared.

"This, this is the 'Xixia Princess' that my father said?" After a while, Brother Ning Ling came back to his senses and said another word, asking the painter Gao Chongde.

Gao Chongde said: "Exactly, congratulations to the prince, the tasks handed over to the prince by the emperor have been completed." Look--" He gestured to Ayimu, who was standing in the hall.

Ning Lingge noticed the other people in the room at this time, and now what he saw at a glance was the person in the painting, the masked beauty who was exactly the same as the one under the brush of the high painter. This was simply a surprise beyond surprise, and Ning Lingge shouted: "'Princess Xixia'!

It's not that Brother Ning Ling has never seen a beauty, but just a pair of eyes can make people fascinated and crazy, I'm afraid that the person in front of him is the only one in this world.

"Your Majesty the Crown Prince, below is Haisha, not the 'Princess of Western Xia'. Ayimu bowed and replied.

Brother Ning Ling listened to it and said with a smile: "Even the voice is so good, Haisha, your name is Haisha, great, wonderful, you may not have been a 'Xixia princess' before, but now it is, now it is!"

He saw Hu Zhenbang and Mu Hanyi again, and asked, "Who are they?"

The guard preemptively said: "Your Majesty Prince Qiqi, these two are the brothers and sisters of this Haisha, and they came to the palace after sending her to find the portrait of the master master." ”

Hu Zhenbang and Mu Hanyi also saluted and said, "I've seen His Majesty the Prince." ”

Brother Ning Ling smiled slightly: "Now your family's Haiisha has become the 'Xixia Princess', and she has lived in the palace since today, since you are her two brothers and sisters, it is not easy to enter the palace, since I can't let you return empty-handed, come here, and reward one hundred taels of gold." ”

Hu Zhenbang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Prince Xie rewarded, the people have something to ask for, I don't know if the prince can agree?"

Ning Linggeqi said: "What else do you want, let's hear it." He also said that the two brothers and sisters of Haisha were not enough of the reward and wanted to ask for something greater.

Without waiting for Hu Zhenbang to speak, Ayimu preemptively said: "Your Majesty the Prince, the little woman is just an ordinary countryman, how can she do anything 'Xixia Princess', my brother and sister, I thought that I could get the portrait of the high painter, and I could ask for some rewards to go home, and now the high painter has also painted my portrait, and the prince wants to leave me alone in the palace, separated from the two brothers and sisters, how does this make my brothers and sisters dependent on each other since childhood, and they have never been separated." ”

Hu Zhenbang secretly praised her for her quick thinking and said what he wanted to make. Mu Hanyi was also clever, and at the moment, "Woo" wiped his tears and cried: "I'd rather not want this hundred taels of gold than be separated from my sister." ”

Hu Zhenbang also said: "The villain just wants to beg His Majesty the Prince, let the three of us brother and sister not separate, then, the one hundred taels of gold, we would rather not." ”

Brother Ning Ling, Gao Chongde and the guard were surprised when they saw this scene, and said in their hearts: "How many women in this world want to be able to enter the palace day and night to enjoy the glory and wealth of the emperor's relatives and relatives, and how many family members of women who enter the palace point to her to ask for more rewards, this time it is strange, this Haiisha and her two brothers and sisters have such a deep relationship, and they would rather not have this opportunity to reunite their brothers and sisters, which is really rare." ”

Brother Ning Ling saw that the three of his brothers and sisters were very emotional, and he was also a little moved in his heart, and he groaned slightly, and said: "Haisha, it is the emperor's order to find the 'Xixia Princess', and even I dare not disobey it, not to mention your brother and sister, how dare you disobey the emperor's order? Besides, Haiisha can stay in the palace, how many people in the world envy you, what else do you have to be hypocritical, so I am in charge, so I will allow you two to accompany Haisha in the palace for a few days, until my father and the emperor will marry her to Tibet." ”

The painter Gao Chongde also said: "Yes, the prince is right, how dare you disobey the holy order, Haiisha has become a 'princess of Western Xia', what a glorious thing, marrying the prince of Tubo, it is also an endless glory and wealth, and you have made a lot of money in this business." ”

Hu Zhenbang's previous actions were originally fake and pushaway, intending to capture the old people, but now seeing that Ning Lingge took the initiative to let his brother and sister stay in the palace to accompany Ayimu for a few more days, which is exactly what the three of them wanted. He no longer pushed back, thanked the prince Ning Lingge, and the painter Gao Chongde.

At that moment, Brother Ning Ling's subordinates arranged for Hu Zhenbang and the three of them to live in two side rooms outside his Chulong Palace, saying that they would be introduced after reporting to their father Li Yuanhao the next day.

Early the next morning, a palace attendant went to the Chulong Palace to report to Brother Ning Ling, saying that it was the emperor's edict and asked His Majesty the Prince to bring the 'Xixia Princess' to meet immediately. Brother Ning Ling received the order and personally prepared a sedan chair to Ayimu's residence, and the palace maid who wanted to serve invited the 'Xixia Princess' who had already been dressed.

Hu Zhenbang and Mu Hanyi were inconvenient to walk together, so they had to stay in the house.

Ayimu wore a light green shirt, still covered his face with a white scarf, slowly walked out of the house, saluted Brother Ning Ling, and got into the sedan chair. Brother Ning Ling saw her graceful, as elegant as a hibiscus out of the water, only leaking a pair of wonderful eyes on the veil, which was more graceful than what she saw under the lamp later before, and she didn't feel stupid.

He secretly said in his heart: "It's a pity! Father and the emperor actually promised such a lovely son to the prince of Tubo, and it was really cheap for Wang Qinde, a toad." Then he thought again: "My father said again, exchanging a 'Xixia princess' for the twelve volumes of the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts" is enough to dominate the world, and at that time, what kind of woman can't have it? Alas, it's just that there will be such a beautiful woman as Haiisha in the world?"

Brother Ning Lingge rode a horse in front of him slowly, Ayimu's sedan chair also slowly followed, the road in the palace went straight and straight, but it was not complicated, about twenty zhang to the north, and then turned west for ten zhang, and then stopped in the sedan chair.

Ayimu left the sedan chair, but saw that Brother Ning Ling had dismounted and waited in front of the sedan chair. Looking behind him, it is a large hall about several zhang high, with white walls and yellow tiles, the vermilion lacquer gate is opening to both sides, and two golden dragons are carved on the eaves on both sides of the roof, which are vivid, as if they want to fly into the air.

This situation and this scene are as good as yesterday, she had been exiled to the Western Summer Palace three years ago, and she had come here again, and she had a different state of mind.

Walking up a long staircase, you will enter the majestic palace gate, the light suddenly dims, and when the eyes adapt, you have already come to the main hall of the palace. On the throne of the golden lacquer carved dragon in front of the hall, there was a burly king dressed in a white long-sleeved robe and a black crowned hat.

In the eight crane-shaped furnaces around him, bursts of sandalwood smoke wafted out and swirled around him. Ayimu raised her eyes and saw that this person was Li Yuanhao, the emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom who had ruined her country and ruined her family, and her father's revenge had not been avenged.

Ayimu's heart was pounding, and he couldn't wait to rush up and kill his father's enemy. It's just that the dagger that she has always been away from her was hidden in the inn outside Li Yuanhao's palace together with Hu Zhenbang's Changhong Sword and Mu Hanyi's Moth Eyebrow Thorn. They gave the innkeeper a sum of money and told him to keep their room and take care of their mounts for as long as they wanted.

Besides, even if the guards on both sides of the hall didn't have time to step forward to stop her from assassinating, I am afraid that she would definitely not be the opponent of this fierce and brutal Li Yuanhao. Therefore, this thought could only spin and turn in her mind, until her heartbeat intensified and her breathing became short.

Brother Ning Ling was about to bow down, Li Yuanhao suddenly rushed off the throne, looked at Ayimu with a pair of eagle eyes, and screamed: "Ayimu, you are Ayimu who escaped from here three years ago!"

Ayimu pretended to be shocked, and hurriedly knelt down and bowed: "The people's daughter Haiyisha knocked to see the emperor." She secretly hated in her heart that she didn't have a weapon in her hand at the moment, otherwise at such a close distance, she would be able to kill her father's enemy with her hand and burn it with a jade.

Brother Ning Ling smiled on the side: "Father, you also recognize her as the 'Princess of Western Xia', the Haisha that Erchen found this time is very similar to the person his father is looking for, right?"

Li Yuanhao was stunned, he couldn't believe that there were people who looked so similar in this world, especially the eyes of the woman in front of him, who could look exactly the same as the eyes of the Uighur woman Ayimu that he had imagined day and night three years ago.
