Qingshuang Garden was cloudy and smoky, floating above the emerald green leaves of the blue water and wind lotus. It reflects the empty waves of the lake, and ripples brightly among the clouds of the morning sun.

The hustle and bustle caused by Wuji Xuannu gradually calmed down, Jingxiao's hands were injured, Ziqi was reprimanded by the head of Shushan, and the Emperor Jue guarded Zining for several days to help her heal her injuries and accept qi.

These days, the thoughts of the fairy goddesses who want to be the fairy concubines of Kunlun have turned into a resentful loss, all the rumors about the absolute emperor are true, the moon Hengtang is not stained with dust, and the women try their best to pretend to be Zhang Zhi, and he has never taken a second look.

The goddesses sighed in private, the proud people should be Mo Yikui and Huanling, but they have a close relationship with Zining, and the three of them accompany each other day and night, so they can take the opportunity to see the emperor. There is also Penglai Dongling Gongzi who personally healed his injuries, and even a concubine Luo'er could send medicine in and out of the warm pavilion and bedroom by serving soup, and invited pets to the emperor. As for the other women in Qingshuang Garden, it is also difficult to see the emperor.

They also heard that Zi Ning had dinner with the Emperor Jue, and the two played the piano and sang. All the women were resentful, and there was a lot of discussion behind their backs, and all kinds of gossip and gunsmoke were everywhere.

When I first saw her, I knew that she was a fox, and it was not enough to seduce men around, and even the Emperor Jue confused her. A young goddess swallowed melon seeds and crooked beside the vermilion lacquer pillar of the Water Pavilion Pavilion, itching her teeth with hatred.

"I heard that Zining used to be a cook in the country of Fajiu, and later sold to the country of Xiqi as a concubine, and had a private meeting with Yuzun every night. The other goddess with phoenix eyes covered half of her mouth with a handkerchief, and deliberately lowered her voice, "I don't know how Yuzun fell in love with her, Qingshuangyuan is such a clean and good place, and she has been filthy." ”

A goddess with a hairpin in her hair slanted widened, her mouth almost stuffed with an egg, and she exclaimed: "There is such a strange thing, the Emperor of the Absolute sent Jiulu Yunche to meet her, and she actually had a private meeting with Yuzun?"

The goddess who swallowed melon seeds threw out an ambiguous look, "In my opinion, the Absolute Emperor may not know about this, since Zi Ning didn't say it, maybe she wanted to hook up with three or four and get the benefit of a few more men." She is a Xuannu, and she was born to be a furnace for men to cultivate, don't you understand?" she said, showing a contemptuous and disgusted smile, "Her prodigal appearance is also worthy of being a furnace ding!"

All the women nodded yes, Danfeng glanced at Xue Yin, who was sitting on the side, silent, and pretended to lament: "Sister Xue Yin, you are the noble descendant of the Qianji clan in Shushan, and you are so unlucky, and you are not favored if you are engaged to Yuzun." Like us, I can't even see Yuzun's face. Look at that Zi Ning again, you say good things for her all day long, I'm afraid she even climbed up Yuzun's bed, we really don't value it for you. ”

A deep and complicated color crossed Xue Yin's face, and she smiled faintly for a while, "If she can win the favor of the Emperor and Yuzun, she must have her benefits." Besides, even if there is no Zi Ning, Yu Zun may not necessarily like me, Zi Ning has her good luck, so why should we be jealous. ”

Danfeng's eyes pursed her lips, "The so-called long-term seeing people's hearts, Kunlun Emperor is discerning, sooner or later one day he will be able to recognize that slut's fox tail!"

The women nodded yes, they couldn't climb the Kunlun Peerless Emperor, but there was hope for marrying into the Yuzun Mansion. Seeing that Xue Yin didn't like Yuzun, and that marriage contract would be dissolved sooner or later, several of them looked at each other, and they all pursed their lips and chuckled, and it was not certain who would kill the deer at that time.

It rained lightly overnight, and when she got up early the next morning, Zi Ning's heart was like rippling water waves and blue leaves, seven up and eight down, and her thoughts were so messy that she couldn't even touch her own direction.

"Ning'er, what are you looking forward to?" Huan Ling came from outside with a stack of bright clothes, stood at the bottom of the stone steps outside the door, and saw her holding her knees, leaning against the window of the bed, her eyes fixed.

Huan Ling jumped up the steps quickly, and did not enter the house, but sat on the edge of the outside of the window lattice with a hollow pattern, and said with a smile: "Your face has been better in the past two days, just now Empress Hua Yao sent someone to send these clothes, saying that tomorrow you will take the Jiulu cloud car to Xuanyuan Terrace, and you will be dressed up." I'll take care of you and help you get your clothes back. Then he passed his garment through the window.

Zi Ning took a look, the top of a goose yellow satin veil silk color is fresh and tender, red nails lined up, like red vermilion stamens dyed between petals, dazzling and bright.

The cry of that night was like melting ice in winter, and a sound came into her ears, piercing her muscles and bones with cold and severe pain. If it weren't for Yue Hengtang always accompanying her and comforting her, she didn't know how to get through, and she didn't dare to face Jingxiao's sad and desperate face.

Brother Tang and Jingxiao -

The shadows of the two white clothes had an indescribable entanglement and entanglement in her heart. Like the dew on the petals of a flower in the morning, it is intoxicating to watch, and then disappears with the light and shadow in a blink of an eye.

Zi Ning shook her head, everything was over, there was no need to think about it anymore.

A group of immortal disciples stepped up their cultivation to prepare for the Xuanyuan Tai ceremony tomorrow, and the Absolute Emperor and Dongling also went to the Spirit Cave to retreat, and the Qingshuang Garden fell into a deserted depression.

Yesterday afternoon, Jingxiao suddenly summoned Zi Ning to sit in the East Hall House.

The East Hall House was specially prepared by Emperor Xiqi for the goddess of Jingxiao, and in the east corner of the front hall, the living room is sparse and spacious, and on both sides is the garden of Chi Li Pavilion and Mochizuki Boat.

The pattern is like a four-pointed star, there are several tall houses with steps, and the Chi Li Pavilion is also quiet and small, planted with a dazzling variety of flowers and trees. Outside the house is a bamboo fence wall, with delicate green vines and pink rose branches.

The house was built much higher than the flat ground of the garden, and when you climb the stairs and lift the bamboo curtain at the main entrance, you will find a hall and study. On the front wall, there is a poem "Wind Bamboo Picture", and there is a spacious low couch at hand, with a low-leg tea table, incense burner, flower tea box, wide cup, and wine cup, which are neatly placed. Near the side wall there is a wide desk with pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

The two bedrooms on the left and right, the bedding beads, curtains and curtains are properly placed, the copper-ringed camphor wood boxes for clothes, the jewelry boxes for dressing, the newly cast bright bronze mirrors, and all kinds of things are prepared according to the instructions of Emperor Shixiqi, and they are all prepared according to the specifications of the first goddess of the immortal clan.

Through the shade of the trees and flowers, you can see the blue waves and lotus shadows on the other side of the pond from the window of the house.

Jingxiao is not a talker, and the two sat silently opposite each other for a long time. Zi Ning was a little embarrassed, and accidentally asked about her hand injury, she pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "I will go back to Danxue Mountain tomorrow to heal my wounds, and the Xuanyuan Tai Zen Sealing Ceremony has nothing to do with me." You and I will meet again in the future, and maybe then I will come up with a better way to get you out of Hengtang. ”

Zi Ning only said that the dispute of that day had passed, and since the injuries of both sides were not serious, there was no need to think about it. She is also the one who does not hold grudges, and she has to be forgiving and forgiving. What's more, Yue Hengtang said that there is no right or wrong in this matter, only different positions.

Suddenly, when I heard her talk about it, a tingling pain suddenly crossed my heart, and I looked at Jingxiao's pair of slightly sad eyes, shining brightly, revealing an unyielding firmness and perseverance.

Only five days later, Jingxiao seemed to be reborn again, from a white jade bowl like a white lotus to a blood-colored red lotus like brocade.

"Are you still unwilling to let go?" Thinking of what Jingxiao said that day, the Xuannu would definitely kill the Absolute Emperor, and Zi Ning's heart churned with a wave of unease.

Jingxiao smiled faintly, "I will never let go of Hengtang." ”

Her eyes looked at Zi Ning, calm and quiet, and said in a quiet voice: "I lost my temper that night, in fact, if you think about it carefully, you are not even my rival." I am the goddess of the immortal clan, and if I cultivate for a few more years, I will inevitably become the first empress. And if you don't have a little skill level, it is nothing to make some true qi masses, as long as you can't breathe in the aura, the samadhi true fire can't be used. ”

Slowly raised his hands wrapped around the white cloth, and said softly: "If you don't have a Xuannu inheritance, you can't practice the rank of a goddess, you can only be an ordinary mortal." Mortal women are in the immortal realm, and their lifespan is less than 100 years old, and you can't accompany Hengtang forever. ”

Zi Ning's face changed suddenly, and she bit her lip hard, "I will definitely find the Xuannu inheritance, and I will have the same lifespan as Brother Tang." ”

"This is the phoenix gall of Danxue Mountain-" Jingxiao flicked his sleeves, and a small silver-white round ball appeared on the white porcelain plate of the couch table, the size of an egg, and the shape was round.

"The phoenix gall seals the soul of the white phoenix, you take it away, find the right opportunity to conceive a white phoenix, and help you find the inheritance of the Xuannu. Jing Xiao's voice was very calm, not like a decision made on a whim.

Zi Ning was slightly stunned, Yue Hengtang told her about the phoenix gall, and only Danxue Mountain in the immortal clan could conceive the phoenix, because they had the soul of the phoenix nirvana, sealed in the phoenix gall.

But why did Jing Xiao give her the phoenix gall, and why did she take the initiative to help? Zi Ning couldn't figure it out, and looked at her suspiciously.

Jing Xiao's smile was a little bleak, "I haven't finished my words yet, 100,000 years ago, Xi'er and Yue Ming died together, they died together, and the inheritance was also together." If you find the inheritance of the Xuannu, and you also find the part of the moon and the shadow, Hengtang must accept the inheritance, and he can't avoid it......"

Zi Ning broke out in a cold sweat, "What are you talking about, if I get the Xuannu inheritance, Brother Tang will become the moon underworld?"

A bone-chilling chill floated from the bottom of his heart, and he saw Jingxiao's face smiling like a flower, with a mocking and pitying look, "That's right, you have to think carefully about how to choose." If you want to inherit, Hengtang will become a bloodthirsty devil, if you don't inherit it, you won't live to be 100 years old, and you can't be with him forever. ”

Jingxiao slowly raised his eyes and looked at a green leaf outside the window, "A hundred years is just a drop of water in the sea for Hengtang." When you die, I will accompany him to live forever and live with heaven and earth!"

She believes that time can change everything, as long as she gets along with Yue Hengtang day and night, has deep affection and heart-to-heart, even if the Xuannu is reborn after 100,000 years, he may not care.

Zi Ning raised his hand and picked up the round phoenix gall, and there was a bright light flowing on the silver-white shell, which was extremely dazzling. Use this phoenix gall to conceive a white phoenix, help her guide the way, and finally find the inheritance of the Xuannu.

There seemed to be a moment of phantom of receiving the inheritance in front of her, her purple clothes fluttering, and a purple light shot out from the crescent moon eyes between her eyebrows. The moon pond beside him transformed, and the fairy figure in white clothes and gold turned into a black phantom full of ferocity in a blink of an eye.

No, he must not become a moon!

Zi Ning's heart twitched, and the phoenix gall in her hand trembled slightly.

Jing Xiao stared at her face, deep hatred had already taken root, and a resolute thought floated in her heart.

Hengtang, I want you to see clearly how selfish this woman you like is. She will definitely go to find the inheritance, she will not hesitate to let you fall into the devil's path, and in the end, she will kill you with her own hands in order to maintain her so-called justice!

If you die at her hands, you should understand that Xuannu doesn't love you, she has been using you all the time, and when you help her get everything she wants, she will kill you without hesitation.

You died at her hands 100,000 years ago, and the ending will be the same in 100,000 years. So the next time you are reincarnated, will you hate her, will you forget her? It doesn't matter, you are not alone, I am always waiting for you.

For you, I can wait, even for 100,000 years!

"Ning'er, are you distracted again?" Huan Ling half-twisted and sat on the edge of the window, looked at Zi Ning with a smile, and quipped: "You have lost your soul all morning, do you miss the Absolute Emperor?"

Zi Ning turned her head slightly, put her clothes on the table beside her, sighed and said, "I was panicked because of a difficult matter. After that, he took out the jade box containing the phoenix gall from his sleeve, unfolded the lid and put it on the table, "Look at it, this thing can give birth to a white phoenix, which was given to me by the Jingxiao Goddess." ”

Huan Ling's eyes immediately widened, and he didn't dare to reach out to touch the phoenix gall, so he only stretched out his head through the window to look closely, and sighed in his mouth, "It's really an immortal clan, and there are all kinds of strange things." Then he was stunned again, "Why did Jingxiao give you this, doesn't she hate you?"

Zi Ning nodded, "She hates me, so give me the phoenix gall." So he told him the ins and outs, and after hearing it, Huan Ling frowned deeply, "Ning'er is so pitiful, and the Absolute Emperor is also pitiful-"

The white ball, which had been playing outside the window, flew to the table with a "whoosh", patted its little belly, and chirped, "I'm hungry, and I'm pitiful." A pair of small black eyes looked at the silver-white phoenix gall, cautiously moved over, hugged and sniffed, and shouted: "Ah, wow, this is phoenix gall, there is a smell of a little phoenix!"

Hurriedly retreated and flew away, jumped onto Zi Ning's shoulder with a "whoosh", grabbed her collar with his little paws, and shook it vigorously: "Xi'er, you don't like me anymore if you have a white phoenix, don't you? I'm a white pixiu, whiter than a white phoenix-"

Zi Ning hurriedly put away the phoenix gall, this thing sealed the soul of the white phoenix, it was a living thing, and the blue jade bracelet couldn't hold it, so it had to be put in the bag in the sleeve. "White Ball, if I don't look for inheritance, I don't need to conceive a white phoenix, you, I will always like it. ”

Baiqiu listened to it and smiled, finally relieved, flapped his plush wings and flew out of the window to play.

Huan Ling watched the white ball fly out and said, "Fortunately, we will leave this place tomorrow, and I will be scared if I stay for one more day." ”

Zi Ning comforted her, "Let's just stay in the house and don't pay attention to those goddesses." Besides, Jingxiao took people back to Danxue Mountain early this morning, and the disciples of the other cave sects didn't have a holiday with us, so I was afraid that they would do something. ”

Huan Ling turned his head to look left and right at the garden, and whispered: "Ning'er, you don't know, I went to the front yard to get clothes just now, and I heard a big strange thing, which has already made people panic, we rarely go in and out of the yard, so we haven't heard of it." ”

"What's the strange thing?" Zi Ning saw her look flustered, and couldn't help but get nervous, leaning forward and urging.

Huan Ling grabbed her hand through the carved hollow window, staring intently, "Two female disciples of Shushan disappeared last night, and the head of Han personally led a group of people to look for them, only to find a few footprints on the bank of the lotus pond, and mud prints that dragged things one by one. ”

As he spoke, his face turned a little pale, and his hands trembled slightly, "I heard the old mothers-in-law here say that there is a water monster that has been sleeping for thousands of years under the lotus pond, because the aura of Nanshan lost most of it a few days ago, and the water monster woke up, climbed ashore at night, and dragged the living people into the water to eat, and there were no bones left!"

Zi Ning shuddered deeply, Nanshan lost most of her spiritual energy, it was because she had a duel with Jing Xiao that day, she accidentally sucked it away, and immediately asked, "Can the two missing female disciples be found?"

Huan Ling shook his head, frowned and said: "There is no shadow at all, the disciples of Shushan are crying and grabbing the ground, and they have been making trouble for most of the night." He looked at Zi Ning with a sad gaze, and flattened his mouth and said, "The disciples of those sects all said that they want you to go out on a night patrol tonight and let the water monsters drag you down, they ...... It's so bad. ”

After that, he looked at the lotus pond outside the window lattice with a worried face, and said to himself: "Ning'er, you can't go out at night tonight, don't be caught by the water monster." After a pause, he said, "Or I'll accompany Ning'er, if the water monster wants to be caught, then arrest me." ”

Zi Ning was moved in her heart, raised her eyes and saw her frowning, very nervous, she couldn't help but reach out and pinch her face, and joked: "The one who really wants to capture Huanling is definitely not a water monster, it must be a young man." ”

But I thought in my heart, is there really any water monster in the immortal realm, or is it a nonsense passed down by people? This matter is very strange, is there any mystery?

Huan Lingqiao's face flushed, twisted her body and said, "When did Ning'er learn to bully people...... she said, and she laughed too, "Good people are blessed by God, I haven't done anything evil, even if I am caught by the water monster, God will definitely send someone to save me, just like the Emperor saved Ning'er." ”

The words were like a warm glow, reflected in Zi Ning's heart, and a light breeze rippled, as if seeing Yue Hengtang wearing fairy flowing white clothes, saving her from danger again and again.

There was a warm sandalwood fragrance in his arms, and his voice was as low as a deep voice, "Zining, don't be afraid, I'm by your side......"

Zi Ning pursed her lips, two blush appeared on her face, and when she turned her eyes, she saw Huan Ling looking at her with wide eyes, and quickly changed the topic and said, "Let's not say anything about the water monster, I saw Luo'er pulling you to talk yesterday, but what is the reason why she suddenly became close to you?"

Luo'er was willing to be a concubine at the auction that day, dedicated herself to follow the emperor back to Kunlun. Yue Hengtang saw that Zi Ning lacked maids by her side, so he ordered Luo'er to wait by her side.

Luo'er was born with a charming color, and often used excuses to be coquettish in front of the emperor, so Huanling and Mo Yikui were a little unaccustomed to her.

Seeing that she asked, Huan Ling took off a brocade satin sachet from his waist, stretched his hand forward, and said with a smile: "This embroidered phoenix pattern looks good, and the incense inside also smells good, it was given to me by Luo'er." She came to me and said a lot about her, saying that we all disliked her. I think she's very pitiful, but not a heinous person. ”

Zi Ning looked at the sachet in her hand, the orange and yellow fine satin background, the upper and lower sides were embroidered with the shadow of the sycamore tree, a golden phoenix hovered and wrapped, and the long phoenix tail was colorful, which was eye-catching and eye-catching. Stretched out his hand and gently opened the sachet to see that there were a few pieces of fine jade sandalwood inside, the smell was faint and distant, and it was by no means ordinary.

An oval-shaped white jade is tied to the sachet, which is very dazzling and shiny.

Zi Ning touched the jade, there was no feeling of cold and hard, and it didn't seem to be made of jade. She frowned slightly, she seemed to have seen this thing somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

Huan Ling grinned, shook the sachet in front of his eyes, and said: "This needlework is beautiful, Ning'er will definitely attract people's eyes when she wears it on her body." ”

Zi Ning smiled and said: "Since Luo'er sent you, you will keep it for yourself, otherwise it will make her suspicious and think that you look down on her." The phoenix pattern looks good when you wear it, I don't like these flower bags the most, and stir-frying and steaming rice in the kitchen are in the way. ”

Huan Ling blinked, took back the golden phoenix incense bag, and carefully tied it to the colored palace silk around his waist along with the oval jade.

Zi Ning lowered her head and frowned slightly, wondering in her heart: "Luo'er has made such a fine needle and thread, whether it is a pattern or a good material, it must have taken a lot of thought and effort." The jade sandalwood contained in it is very similar to the fragrance commonly used by Brother Tang, which is a rare thing. What is Luo'er's intention in sending such a valuable thing to Huanling?"

There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, and then he shook his head again, a little troubled in his heart.

In the past two days, Luo'er's temperament has changed a lot, and she is kind to people and things, but Zi Ning always has a faint entanglement and uneasiness, she can't think clearly, but she is always worried.

Luo'er grew up in Xiqi Palace since she was a child, her appearance is extremely beautiful, and her upbringing is good, and she wants to repay the emperor's great kindness. She is not an evil person, and she does not hide her thoughts at all, but she shows her true temperament.

Zi Ning secretly blamed herself, live together in Kunlun in the future, don't always be wary of Luo'er, maybe you can be friends with her.

raised his eyes to look at Huanling, and saw that she liked the golden phoenix sachet, and she couldn't put it down when she fiddled with it, and she felt that she was too careful. Luo Er has made a good needlework, such a clever woman, must be kind by nature.
