Chapter 884: Familiar Warmth

The emperor's descendants began to receive the blessing and infiltration of the talisman before they were born, and their lifespans were generally relatively long, they could live to one hundred to two hundred years, and they grew old relatively slowly, but the years did not stop on them, but they took a leisurely pace, moving forward unhurriedly, leaving two or three footprints in the corners that were difficult for outsiders to detect.

Queen Smoke's appearance has not changed much, although she is no longer a girl, she is still young and beautiful, and her smile is still as charming as before, or even more charming, a little more mature and mysterious, as if she has reached the world, if it is a little later, it will become a misanthropy.

Zeng Fu sighed as soon as he entered the room, and while walking around and tidying up the already clean room, he said: "Even if the Taoist priests are immortal, you are always so young without Neidan, it really makes a mortal like me jealous." ”

Except for Zeng Fu, no one dared to speak so casually to Queen Xun, they were not friends, but Queen Xun had always respected Zeng Fu's Taoist background, Zeng Fu spoke to anyone like this, Zuo Liuying adopted her and raised her, but never taught her the difference between dignity and inferiority and complicated rules, there are many precepts in Pangshan, which are only effective for real Taoist priests, and Zeng Fu does not need to abide by them.

It is precisely because she can't stand too many rules that Zeng Fu left the palace very early, at the request of Queen Xun, she will go into the palace on the first day of every month to stay overnight, chat with the queen, clean up the room, the two have no fixed conversation content, east and west, Zeng Fu said a lot, Queen Xun said less, began to look like sisters, and slowly became a bit like a nagging mother and a pampered daughter.

Queen Xun is a careful person, every time Zeng Fu enters the palace, she will retire the palace maids around her in advance, so that Zeng Fu's various unruly behaviors will not attract too much tongue.

"It seems to be very hot this summer. Queen Xun said that she and Zeng Fu often talked to each other, and there was no need to answer each other.

"You have so many knick-knacks here that you can't finish it every time you come. No wonder you need so many palace maids. Those little princes and princesses didn't come? Fortunately, they were either too noisy or too honest, and they didn't worry. You're still wearing the old clothes from last month, you're the queen, you don't have to be so economical......"

Queen Smoke just smiled, occasionally nodding and shaking her head or saying something she didn't know what she meant, which was one of the purposes she asked Zeng Fu to come once a month: to put aside the queen's identity for a while and relax a little.

"You should learn how to box. Zeng Fu put down the work in his hand and said very seriously.

"Fist technique?"

"Hmm. You look young, but you're ...... How to say it, soft, weak, if it goes on like this, the appearance is normal, the inside has collapsed, the body is not old, and the heart is wasted first. ”

Queen Smoke smiled silently.

"Taoist priests have to refine their bodies. There is a saying that how strong a physique can accommodate a strong Neidan, and they think about it for several hours, or even days or months in a row. You can't hold on without a good body. ”

Queen Smoke reclined on the soft couch, looking a little difficult to even support her weight, "I don't have a Neidan, and I don't have ambitions. What do you want a good physique to put on?"

Zeng Fu shook his head again and again, "You are still a person who has been on the battlefield and fought." I heard that some women especially want children when they reach a certain age, and they become sentimental when they don't have children. Are you such a person?"

This is also a thing that no one else dares to ask, Queen Xun straightened up, sat cross-legged on the couch, she was wearing a weak old dress, her hair was pulled up at will, three hairpins were inserted, and there was no decoration in addition, and she asked rhetorically: "What about you, have you ever thought about having a few children with a man?"

At this time, the smoke queen regained a little vitality, and her two eyes were shining, revealing a hint of naughtiness.

Zeng Fu thought for a while, "When I was about ten years old, my sister and I both wanted to marry Zuo Liuying, and we made a bet for it, but I lost, but my sister didn't know whether she forgot this bet, or she was afraid that I would be sad, so she never mentioned that she wanted to marry Zuo Liuying, and I didn't mention it." Slowly, I found out that Zuo Liuying was more like our father, a father who was not very responsible, slightly indulgent to his daughter, and at the same time very strict. ”

Zeng Fu had a smile on his face, "A Taoist priest is a Taoist priest, neither a man nor a woman, they are married for the sake of cutting the fate, and in the final analysis, it is for cultivation, so ...... To be honest, I don't even know what a real man is. ”

Empress Xun laughed loudly, enough to make ordinary palace maids feel that it was a gaffe, "It's been ...... since you left Pang Mountain For more than 20 years, I have seen a lot of men. ”

"That's what I really don't want to. Speaking of men...... "Zeng Fu walked up to Queen Xun and took out a flattened straw hat from his bosom," he came. ”

"Who?" said Queen Smoke, who still had a smile on her face, but there was confusion in her eyes.

"Who else can there be, Mu Xingqiubei. Zeng Fu put the straw hat on the small table on the couch, "He wants to see you, and he didn't bring any good gifts, only this broken straw hat." ”

"He wants to see me?" the smile on Queen Smoke's face was gone, more confused, and a little nervous, "I heard that he showed up in Yelin Town...... Why did he want to see me?"

"I don't know, I'm only in charge of passing the word. When necessary, Zeng Fu also knew the truth of leaving three points in words, the contradiction between the Fu Master and the monk was very involved, and it was not something she should be involved in, "If you are willing to see him, I will leave the straw hat, if you don't want to, I will take the straw hat out early tomorrow morning and return it to him, or throw it away, this is not a good thing." ”

Queen Smoke didn't make a decision right away, and after a while said, "Is he still the same as before?"

"A Taoist priest, he is also a Taoist priest when he quits Taoism, but he doesn't dress very well, so it's better to come with him. ”

"Old gentleman?"

"I don't know who it is, Mu Xingqiu didn't introduce it, it looks quite strict. ”

Queen Smoke pondered for a while, "Stay." ”

Zeng smiled and began to get busy again, in her eyes there was always work to be done. It was dark outside, Zeng Fu's life was very regular, and she had no intention of talking all night, she yawned, picked up the small lamp on the table, and said, "Go to sleep, how to see Mu Xingqiu, you think of a way, tell me tomorrow morning." ”

Zeng Fu never served the queen to change her clothes, so she went outside with a small lamp, and rested by herself after blowing it out.

The Smoke Queen has already finished washing. She didn't call the palace maid in again, the room was very dark, and slowly she noticed the glimmer of light, it was the night of the first month, the moon was just a thin touch, and the sky must be full of stars, providing this little light, and through the cracks in the doors and windows.

The flat straw hat was placed on the small table beside him, and the outline gradually became clear, always shrouded in a hazy veil. This is something that no matter how bright the light of the stars and the moon is, it cannot be removed.

"You know, I've been trying to keep the memories of the past. Queen Xun whispered, this is talking to herself, Zeng Fu outside is already asleep, and she doesn't even have a trace of sleep, "For mortals, this is too difficult, Fu Gong can only help a little, I try not to get involved in new things." Summoning former acquaintances over and over again is just to keep the memory from being disturbed, but it's still too difficult. A spell of a Taoist priest, but mortals have to make unremitting efforts day after day to achieve. ”

She has many memories. One of the clearest periods is that to this day, every rainy and cloudy day, she can still feel the refreshing coolness. It brings tension and confusion, and behind it lies a lack of indulgence, which is the love that the princess of the Xijie Kingdom and the empress of the Holy Fu Dynasty should never have.

Because of this. This memory is different, like the only red flower in the green grass everywhere, like the only lonely figure in the bustling city, it is the mainstay of the old memories of the Queen of Smoke, and other memories, whether relevant or unrelated, can be attached to it, so as not to be swept away by the flood.

Because of this, she still remembers that her name is Xin Youxun, and she can still maintain her original intention.

But no matter how hard she tried, she always remembered the rest of the story very clearly, maybe she was too flustered to form a deep impression at the time, she only vaguely remembered the broad and warm chest, and the painful look when he was in love.

She reached out her fingers and touched the broken straw hat lightly, hoping for a similar hint of warmth.

There was really a hint of warmth coming from inside the straw hat.

Queen Xun was slightly startled, although she didn't have a Neidan, she often came into contact with the talisman, and knew that this warmth was not unusual.

She didn't remove her fingers, and let the warmth slowly spread down her arm, gradually reaching the top of her head, and then she heard a voice in her mind that was both familiar and unfamiliar, like a newborn sun, illuminating many memories of the past at once.

"Please forgive me for being uninvited, it's hard to keep any plan secret these days, the shape of the Imperial Capital is very complicated, and there is a reason for the contradiction between the Fu Master and the monk. Mu Xingqiu used illusion to send his soul from the dim tavern all the way to the straw hat in the palace, but he didn't think about how to explain the demon invasion.

"I know, I secretly provoked it. Queen Xun was not used to talking in her head, so she spoke directly.

"You?" Mu Xingqiu was slightly startled, he respected Empress Xun and did not explore any of her memories.

"Well, to deal with the demon seed. ”

Mu Xingqiu was even more surprised, but he was not particularly surprised, he had always felt that Queen Xun was disheartened and wrong, and now he finally had an explanation, but this explanation was beyond his expectations.

"Yang Qingyin told me that the demon seeds were not killed, they fled, and others didn't believe her, thinking that the battle of Wangshan had completely solved the threat of the demons, but I believed it. When some of the talisman masters and monks became more and more greedy, I guess this was the hand and foot of the demon seed, and I couldn't compete with them, or even find out where they were, so I deliberately fanned the flames and provoked everyone's desire to fight for merit. It's not a good idea, it had some effect at the beginning, but in recent years, the effect has become worse and worse, but the battle has become more and more intense, and I can't control it anymore. ”

Mu Xingqiu finally understood why there were a small number of talismans that resisted the demon invasion, because their feelings were scattered, and although Queen Xun's move to attack the poison with poison could not persist to the end, it greatly slowed down the speed of the demon invasion.

"Thank you for doing this qiē, it's very important to me. ”

Queen Xun has never been sure whether her approach is correct, and the stone that she was pressing on her heart was now moved by Mu Xingqiu, "Fortunately, you came in time." ”

"I'm here, and I'm going to apologize to you again. ”

"Why?"

"Because the battle is about to begin, I can't give you time to prepare, and I'll put you in danger. ”

Queen Smoke waved her left hand, "I've been preparing. ”
