Chapter 45: A Chance Encounter with a Deceased Person
Qilin used to be the one who ate fish, and grilled fish was Ah Yue's specialty. He always lies by the lake, holding the wine jar while eating and drinking, and jokes to Ah Yue, "Ah Yue, the fish you grill is so delicious, you won't get tired of eating it for a lifetime!"
The debts owed must be repaid!
Now that the identities of the two are reversed, Qilin is not impatient at all, he is busy in a hurry, he is responsible for roasting, Ah Yue is responsible for eating, and bursts of laughter come from the small lake from time to time, "Ah Lin, your fish is so delicious!"
Qilin smiled, tasted it, and felt that it was 108,000 miles away from what Ah Yue had roasted before, and his hands kept moving, and he took a processed fish to learn the way Ah Yue grilled fish before, and after roasting it for a long time, he wanted to taste it again, but it had been snatched away by Ah Yue.
"Well, this fish is even more delicious!" Ah Yue's eyes lit up and he praised Qilin.
Qilin only felt a sour nose, and said with a smile: "Then I will roast fish for Ah Yue for a lifetime!"
"Hmm!" Ah Yue agreed, he had such a delicious grilled fish to eat all his life, it was great!
There is a kind of happiness called lost and regained, whether it is family, friendship or love, it is so precious. Not everyone is lucky enough to do it all over again. Ah Yue was able to come back to life and see him again, and Qilin already felt thankful.
The meddling was delayed for too long, and the two flew for two more hours and entered the summer capital. At this time, the sky was already dark and gloomy, and colorful lanterns were hung on both sides of the street.
Chu Xiyin remembered that many years ago, he followed his ancestor and fourth brother, as well as the other three major families, to Beijing to participate in Princess Shanruo's wedding banquet. She stood on the street, her lips slightly raised, as if those things had happened yesterday.
People come and go on the street, and the cries of selling are endless, "delicious maltose ......"
"Rouge...... Superior rouge ......"
"Delicious stuffed meat buns......"
"The newly-arrived cloth...... Let's take a look at the guest!"
"Little Toys...... Newly made little toy ......"
......
The excitement and hustle are even worse, and it seems that today's Son of Heaven should be a good emperor who loves the people like a son.
"Senior Sister Chu, are you hungry?" Xia Qingning asked, but she didn't reply, and when she turned around, she found that she was wandering. He followed Chu Xiyin's gaze, and it turned out that they had unconsciously arrived at the inn where Chu Xiyin and them stayed that day. No wonder, no wonder she got distracted.
Suddenly, a gorgeous carriage in the distance hurriedly came, Xia Qingning quickly took Chu Xiyin into his arms, and took her a few spins to avoid the galloping carriage.
"Who doesn't look at the road like this?" The carriage stopped suddenly, and the black-clothed guard pointed at Chu Xiyin and scolded.
Xia Qingning's eyes were cold, and an eye knife flew over, and the guard immediately wilted. He is also very eye-catching, this immortal monarch's dress is obviously from the Easy Pavilion, he really didn't look at the yellow calendar when he went out, and he caused a lot of trouble. For a while, he hated to bury his face under the floor tiles, retreated to the side, and no longer dared to be presumptuous.
It's such a coincidence, the driver happened to be Akiyama, he now has a beard, and people have a lot of vicissitudes, the moment he saw Chu Xiyin, he almost exclaimed, "Princess...... No, Miss Chu!"
Chu Xiyin nodded at Qiu Shan, she has a good memory, she still remembers that Qiu Shan had recognized her many years ago, but she didn't expect to recognize her as Princess Shanruo today.
The people inside were alarmed by Akiyama's "princess", and although they knew that it was impossible, they still opened the curtain of the car violently. This is none other than yesterday's Prince Mingze, and now His Majesty the Emperor of Great Xia. When I went out in civilian clothes today, I went to the Ghost King Temple to see the Ghost King Xue Yan. When he saw the face that was the same as his imperial sister, he got out of the carriage with excited hands and feet, stretched out trembling hands, pressed Chu Xiyin's shoulders, and his eyes widened almost out of shape, "Like, too similar!"
His eyes were red, and his handsome facial features were five points similar to Princess Shanruo, so he suddenly hugged Chu Xiyin into his arms in public, and Xia Qingning, who was vomiting, had a sharp look in his eyes, and was about to throw this person far away, when he heard Chu Xiyin already open his mouth, "Your Majesty recognizes Xiyin as Princess Shanruo?"
The wise and martial Da Xia Zi came back again, he let go of Chu Xiyin, and waved at Chu Xiyin with some apologies, "Tang Tu Fairy!"
Chu Xiyin also returned a salute, she was not a real immortal, and she couldn't afford to be worshiped by the mortal emperor.
At this time, Xia Qingning's mood eased slightly, but his eyes were still solemn, and he and the emperor saluted each other, "Your Majesty!"
"Xia Xianjun!"
The two little heads that had been waiting in the carriage for a long time popped up, the boy was alert, the girl was smart, and the two little ones shouted softly: "Uncle......"
Chu Xiyin's heart was suddenly shocked, she knew that it was Princess Shanruo's remaining soul power that was doing trouble, and Princess Shanruo was thinking about her child. Her heart was sour, and she walked over, the two little ones looked at her with wide eyes and disbelief, and the little one simply jumped from the carriage into her arms, and cried directly, "Queen Mother......"
The pain of dying his own mother at a young age is not something that others can imagine. Although they have a bunch of palace maids and grandmothers, what they need most are their fathers and mothers. But my father and mother are gone.
Xia Qingning was worried that outsiders would find out about their identities, so he immediately waved an enchantment, isolating everything around them behind the light curtain.
"Mother ......" The boy thought he must be dreaming, and reached out to twist his face, and when he felt the pain, he burst into tears.
Akiyama saw that the little master was sad, and his nose was also red, and he told the boy, "This is the young lady of the Chu family of the immortal cultivation family, and she is just the same as Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
The boy was older, nodded sensibly, and bowed to Chu Xiyin in a proper manner.
The girl also understood, but she still sobbed and asked, "Why not our queen mother......?" I really miss her!"
Chu Xiyin put the little man on the carriage, took out a snow-white handkerchief and wiped her tears, and said pityingly: "You can call me Aunt Xiyin in the future!"
The girl flattened her mouth and shed a few more tears, and the boy held her hand and told her, "Our queen mother is in the Imperial Mausoleum of the Heavenly Star Kingdom, and Uncle Xue Yan said that he has preserved his mother's body with ten thousand years of Xuanbing. When we're older, we'll be able to go back to see her!"
The girl nodded while crying, and Chu Xiyin, who was crying, also shed tears, she knew that it was from the sadness of Princess Shanruo, from the helplessness and distress of a mother.
With this long-cherished wish, Chu Xiyin felt a little quieter in her heart, she hoped that she would only be a complete Chu Xiyin from now on, but she also knew that she had the soul of Mei'er and Princess Shanruo in her body, and she also had their thoughts. She didn't want to selfishly refine their souls, she felt that their past was not a stain, but growth. She wants them to exist, and she always reminds her not to be willful, not to be soft-hearted, she still has a lot of things to do, they still have a lot of things to do.
"Farewell, two!" Emperor Xia waved to them, and sent the two small ones into the carriage first, and then got into the carriage himself.
Xia Qingning withdrew the enchantment, watched them go away, and found that Chu Xiyin's mood had changed again, and the corners of his lips rose slightly, and he sighed in his heart: "It's worthy of her!"
Chu Xiyin and Xia Qingning entered the inn, and the carriage also rushed to the Ghost King Temple.
Since Xue Yan ordered his subordinates to send a pair of children of Princess Shanruo back to Great Xia, in order to express his gratitude, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time, which is now the Emperor of Great Xia, ordered someone to build a ghost king temple in the capital.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the temple, and the little ghost who was in charge of the affairs had already gone inside to inform Xue Yan, "Ghost King, the two little highnesses and Your Majesty are here!"
Xue Yan, who was sitting on the side wiping the wrong sword, heard this, and the knife was not wiped anymore, so he put it away with a thought. Get up and go out to welcome Autumn Mountain and two small ones. Yes, even if His Majesty the Emperor is here today, he still only has the pair of children born to Princess Shanruo and Akiyama in his eyes. The reason why he is willing to see this Xia Huang is that he sees the face of Princess Shanruo, and the second is the face of Princess Shanruo. He knew the kindness of a princess, and he didn't want her people to fall into misery. That's why he came forward this time.
"Uncle Xue Yan......" The two little ones rushed towards Xue Yan when they entered the door, the corners of Xue Yan's lips rose slightly, hugged them and then separated, people and ghosts have different paths, he doesn't want the evil spirit on his body to hurt them.
The two children stood sensibly in front of him and saluted.
Xue Yan looked at them, with a sour and relieved heart, "I've grown taller again!"
"Xue Yan!" Akiyama hugged him, feeling the coldness all over his body, and his mood was complicated. Their brothers are separated by humans and ghosts after all!
Xue Yan tugged at the corners of his mouth, "You're all good, I'll be relieved!"
Yes, after so many things, peace with each other is already the best ending!
Seeing the emperor's aura of the person who came, Xue Yan had already guessed who the person was coming, and he waved his hand at him, "I've seen the king of people!"
The children are not sensible, but the two adults understand, and they were all stunned when they heard Xue Yan call Emperor Xia "human king......
"The king of people don't need to be surprised, every time a major event in the Six Realms comes to the door, there will be a group of kings in the Six Realms, and the king of the human realm is none other than you!" He didn't say anything else, because the records of the underworld were incomplete. In this turbulent era of the Six Realms, anything could happen, and there were many things he knew, but he couldn't explain them to them.
"Did the Ghost King say that the Six Realms were going to be in chaos?" asked Emperor Xia.
Xue Yan nodded, and said nothing else. He just told Emperor Xia, "This king has asked his little ghosts to take precautions in the area where the demon world is about to appear, and printed my ghost king's seal on the mortal gate, as long as the mortals don't leave the courtyard that day, the demon soldiers in the demon world have their own ghost soldiers to deal with." ”
"I understand!" Emperor Xia thanked Xue Yan for his righteousness, bowed to him, and the rest of the people also bowed to Xue Yan, Xue Yan did not refuse, and Wu took it to himself.
Seeing them off, Xue Yan looked at the starry night sky, his eyes were full of loneliness and desolation, "Princess, you have to protect your people of Great Xia, Xue Yan will help you!"
