Xijing Pan Demon Chapter 58 Enter the Palace
Qingchen looked at the handwriting revealed on the book of heaven, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, this son of heaven is really extraordinary, just a gift is such a precious treasure.
Putting away the book of heaven, he glanced at Qingyan in the distance, and the latter frowned slightly, as if he was a little worried about Qingchen's trip.
Qingchen nodded at her slightly, signaling that he would be cautious, and then followed Xu Younian to ride a horse and rush towards the palace.
Dozens of minutes later, Qingchen and Xu Younian came to the palace and walked into the gate of the imperial city, where two columns of Praetorian Guards were patrolling the palace.
The leader of the Praetorian Guard is naturally Qingchen's rival in love, and he is fierce.
Yin Lie caught a glimpse of this Qingchen who made him lose face in Xijing City, and he was angry in his heart.
But when he saw Xu Younian who was following Qingchen, his heart of waiting for the opportunity to announce his personal vendetta was slightly restrained.
"Uncle Xu, what a coincidence!" Yin Lie raised a smile, waved his hand at Xu Younian, and then walked towards them.
Xu Younian was a little embarrassed and said, "Ah... yes, Lie'er is on patrol?"
Yin Lie nodded in response, and then asked, "I wonder what my uncle has to deal with when he brought this Qingchen prince to the palace?"
"Hmm... That's the case, Qingchen Gongzi, he helped us subdue the Pan Demon in Xijing City before, and after the emperor learned about it, he had to invite him over. ”
Yin Lie breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: Fortunately, he didn't provoke him just now, but he didn't expect him to be the emperor's honored guest!
Yin Lie nodded slowly, and arched his hand at Qingchen: "I didn't expect it, Qingchen Gongzi was majestic and heroic at a young age, and now he is even more rescuing our people in Xijing and water and fire, I admire and admire it!"
"Where did Commander Yin say, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, I just regard the common people in the world as the object that I should protect. Qingchen replied lightly.
Yin Lie's face trembled slightly: This Qingchen's skin is too thick, I'm just saying some polite words, why is this still kicking my nose in the face!
But Yin Lie could only swallow his anger, on the one hand, taking care of Xu Younian's face on the side, and on the other hand, he was afraid that the emperor would blame him.
"That's it, Lie'er, if there is anything to discuss later, now that the emperor is waiting, I won't say more!" Xu Younian saw that the atmosphere between the two was awkward, and they competed against each other, so he immediately came out to play a round.
Yin Lie also nodded, after all, nothing is more important than the matter of the Son of Heaven.
So, Qingchen followed Xu Younian to say goodbye to Yin Lie and walked towards the Imperial Garden.
In the imperial garden, rockeries and deep bamboos, small bridges and flowing water, all kinds of flowers are in full bloom. In its center there is a gazebo with a stone table in it.
The stone table is surrounded by two stone benches made of marble, and on top of the stone bench, a middle-aged man dressed in yellow dragon silk satin.
There is no doubt that this man must be the Son of Heaven.
Behind him, two maids held a fan in their hands, fanning it regularly and gently.
On the stone table, there are all kinds of fruit snacks, and next to the stone table, there is another palace maid with slender fingers, carefully peeling off the skin of the fruit and putting the flesh into the clean jade plate on the table.
The Son of Heaven sat upright, holding an ancient book in his hand, and studied it intently.
Suddenly, he put down his book, rubbed his temples with both hands, and gestured to the maid beside him.
The maid immediately walked outside the pavilion and whispered a few words into the ear of one of the guards, the whole time in a very low voice, barely making any sound.
The guard listened and walked out of the garden.
At this moment, Gonggong Qin walked over.
"Your Majesty, General Xu has invited the fairy and is now waiting outside the garden. ”
The Son of Heaven closed his eyes, nodded slightly, and said, "Invite him in!"
"Yes!" Father-in-law Qin replied and walked out of the pavilion with a twist.
A moment later, Gonggong Qin led Qingchen into the pavilion.
"Your Majesty, the fairy has arrived!"
The Son of Heaven still closed his eyes and made a gesture, signaling to Gonggong Qin and the maids beside him to all retreat.
After they were all gone, the Son of Heaven slowly spoke: "Fairy, please take a seat." ”
As he spoke, the Son of Heaven pointed to the stone bench in front of him, but he never opened his eyes during the whole process.
Qingchen didn't dare to slack off, got up and walked over, and sat down slowly.
"Your Majesty, I have already sat down, do you have any other orders?"
As soon as the words fell, the emperor, who had been closing his eyes, slowly opened his eyes at this time.
"Sure enough, I didn't disappoint me, the fairy wind is arrogant, the temperament is dusty, and he is brave at a young age, and he has the world in mind. ”
"Actually, I thought he was a rough person, but I didn't expect the fairy to be so handsome!"
The Son of Heaven looked at Qingchen up and down and was very satisfied.
Qingchen bowed his hand slightly, and said modestly: "The emperor has praised it falsely, the family teacher has an order before Qingchen goes down the mountain, and when he encounters evil demons, he will do his best." ”
"Oh?" the Son of Heaven was interested, "I don't know who the fairy family master is?"
"Back to the emperor, Qingchen has lived in an immortal mountain north of the East China Sea since he was a child, and this mountain is called Qingshan. And the family teacher is the Mu Li Shangxian of the Liuli Hall in the Qingshan Immortal Mansion. ”
"It's actually the Qingshan Sect!" the Son of Heaven was a little surprised. Because it is rumored that this Qingshan Sect is a hidden immortal mansion, and it has always been only known by its name and not seen, so although there are rumors in the world, most people still regard it as a legend.
Now that this rumored fairy of the Immortal Mansion has appeared alive in front of the Son of Heaven, how can he not be excited.
"So good, so good!" said the Son of Heaven to himself.
"Your Majesty, what's so good?" Qingchen was a little puzzled.
The Son of Heaven shook his head and said, "It's nothing, do you like the night pearl I gave you?"
Qingchen nodded slightly, and then said gratefully: "The meeting gift given by the emperor is too valuable, if there is a place where Qingchen needs help, Qingchen will definitely do his best." ”
"In that case, I will pay you a favor when I need it!"
As he spoke, the Son of Heaven picked up the silver wine jug on the stone table, got up and began to pour wine for Qingchen.
Qingchen hurriedly stood up in fright, how could he be virtuous, how dare he let the Son of Heaven pour wine for himself!
"Your Majesty, let's come on, the emperor is the supreme of the Nine Dragons, how can he pour wine for a Taoist priest in my district!"
"Eh!" the Son of Heaven stretched out a hand and pushed Qingchen back, "This cup of wine, I salute you for saving thousands of people in Xijing City!
Qingchen nodded slightly, but he never dared to sit down, just staring at the son of heaven in front of him.
After the Son of Heaven poured wine for Qingchen, he sat down slowly, and then stretched out his hands and patted them slightly.
A soft, long sound came from above the lake in the garden.
Qingchen followed the prestige, and there was a small disc above the lake, on which sat a slender woman, stroking a guqin with both hands.
"Fairy, this is the best courtesan I found for you in Xijing City, named Xian'er. How?"
The Son of Heaven raised his eyebrows and looked at Qingchen sitting in front of him, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Qingchen hurriedly glanced at the courtesan on the lake, and then turned his head.
"This fairy girl is worthy of being the most famous in Xijing City, her appearance and piano sound are the best. ”
The Son of Heaven nodded slowly: "What about the fairy? Today I am in charge, I will give you this fairy girl, and I will recognize you as the master in the future." ”
Qingchen was stunned for a moment, quickly shook his head, and said, "Your Majesty, this can't be helped!"
The Son of Heaven smiled and said: "Young man, the blood is strong, what is there to be ashamed of, this fairy is still a virgin." ”
Qingchen's cheeks flushed a little when the Son of Heaven said this, he had never thought about anything about men and women.
"Forget it, I'm a cultivator, and it's inconvenient to have a courtesan by my side. ”
Tianzi was a little embarrassed on his face, whispered into Qingchen's ear, and said: "Fairy, you don't know, it's not that I want this fairy to give it to you, it's someone who took the initiative to ask for it." ”
"Look... This... I promised her everything I said..."
Qingchen's face was a little overwhelmed, and the Son of Heaven pulled down his face to beg him, but he really didn't have this will.
"Fairy, you have a word!" the Son of Heaven still kept urging Qingchen.
Qingchen sighed, shook his head, and said, "Your Majesty, although Qingchen is very rude in doing this, Qingchen still has to say that Qingchen already has a sweetheart in his heart. ”
"Sweetheart?" the Son of Heaven showed a wicked smile, "But the daughter of General Xu's family?"
Qingchen nodded slightly: "Exactly!"
"Actually, I'm a little curious, how did the fairy get acquainted with the daughter of the Xu family?"
Qingchen fell into contemplation for a while, and then said slowly: "This matter is a long story, let's start with the Baihua Building in Jinling..."
Qingchen told the Son of Heaven about the process of his acquaintance with Qingyan, and in addition, he also talked about the battle with the Pan Demon yesterday.
After hearing this, the Son of Heaven was amazed: "According to the fairy's words, that demon is just a puppet that can suck human blood!"
"Will the real murderer come back?
"This puppet has a blood relationship with the murderer behind the scenes, this time the puppet is destroyed, she will inevitably be greatly injured, I am afraid that there will be no big storm in recent years. Qingchen saw that the Son of Heaven was a little flustered, and hurriedly said.
The Son of Heaven breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good!"
The two chatted and gradually lost track of time, and in the blink of an eye, it was already sunset, and the sound of the courtesan's piano had long since stopped abruptly.
But the courtesan did not leave, but stood more than ten meters away from the pavilion and waited quietly.
Qingchen and the Son of Heaven slowly got up and prepared to go to the palace for dinner.
Xian'er also quietly followed Qingchen and slowly walked towards the palace.
On the palace, the Son of Heaven sat on the main seat, and Qingchen sat on the left side of the Son of Heaven.
Afterwards, the palace maids began to hand over the delicacies of the dinner one after another.
Xian'er poured wine for Qingchen on the side. Qingchen looked at the fairy on the side, and a faint fragrance wafted in the wind.
Xian'er also looked at Qingchen at this moment, and the two looked at each other like this, but Xian'er on the side seemed to be dumbfounded at this moment.
"Ahh
I saw that she was holding a silver wine jug in her hand and poured out the wine in the glass.
"It's okay..."Qingchen said coldly. But there was a trace of doubt in his heart, and he always felt that there was something wrong with this fairy girl.
