Infinity Throne

Originally, Zen Master Kuye wanted to send the eldest princess to her destination.

But here, he turned around again.

Because he discovered that from beginning to end, Yi Lin, who was hidden in the team, could actually achieve such a mission without him sending her away.

These days, I talk to Donor Lin about Buddhism every night. Even if the other person doesn't understand or recognize it, Zen Master Ku Ye and Yi Lin have become friends for half a year.

Yi Lin occasionally said some words that went against common sense, which made Zen Master Ku Ye feel that they made some sense. At the same time, he shook his head secretly. He must not let Wang Xiaohu get entangled with this person any longer, otherwise he would be led astray.

This is a good seedling for practicing Buddhism. It must not grow crookedly!

Zen Master Kuye was very worried during this time.

Deal with Yi Lin at night.

During the day, he had to teach Wang Xiaohu some simple Buddhist principles.

After this was passed around, Wang Xiaohu was finally moved by Master Kuye and decided to go to Ping'an Temple to have a look.

Moreover, he somehow seemed not interested in Tianjianmen.

Maybe it was because of that meal, or maybe it was for other reasons, Wang Xiaohu always had an indescribable fondness for Master Kuye's bald head, which looked quite festive.

So Wang Xiaohu left.

Zen Master Kuye's wooden fish was light and fluttering, swaying left and right. There was an irrepressible joy in its flight path, and it took Wang Xiaohu away.

On the top of the Eastern Zhou Mountain, only the eldest princess and Yi Lin were left.

The two walked down the mountain along the path.

Yi Lin didn't show any amazing abilities in front of Xia Xiaoman, just step by step, it was like going on an outing.

Xia Xiaoman was still wearing the monk's common clothes, and her head had not been shaved for half a month. Dense hair residue had grown on her forehead, making her look like a deviant little monk who had just returned to secular life.

"Hey, Mr. Lin, how about we discuss it?"

As they walked, the eldest princess had some strange thoughts.

"explain."

Yi Lin replied without looking back.

"I heard from the master that you have some skills inherited from your family. Why don't you escort this princess back to Qingdu? As long as you return to Qingdu, you will be well rewarded."

"Oh?" Yi Lin seemed to be interested. She stopped, turned around, looked at the eldest princess up and down for a few times, and then asked: "What do you want to do after returning to Qingdu?"

Xia Xiaoman bit her lower lip lightly, but she bit her lower lip too hard, and she still didn't know it, leaving a shallow blood mark on her lower lip. After being silent for a long time, Xia Xiaoman saw that Yi Lin was a ruthless character, so he could only try to reveal some of his trump cards: "I want to take my brother out of Qingdu."

"Could the younger brother you are talking about be the current Emperor Daqian, the little emperor who ascended the throne at the age of three...Xia Jisheng?"

"Yes, what else? Wait, how dare you call the emperor by his name?"

The eldest princess couldn't help but her eyes widened again.

Yi Lin ignored her and said to herself: "Heh, what if we take your brother out of Qingdu?"

Xia Xiaoman thought Yi Lin had agreed, and immediately didn't care about Yi Lin's "offense". Her face was a little more rosy, her eyes were rippled, and she was full of energy.

Xia Xiaoman excitedly grabbed Yi Lin's lapel, took a few steps closer, and said quickly in a low voice: "The King of Huangnan Zhennan is the elder brother of my father, and the uncle of our two sisters. As long as My two brothers and I went to the emperor's uncle, who, for the sake of my father, might be willing to send troops to eradicate that witch in Qingdu and re-establish my stronghold."

Temptress?

Yi Lin had been pretending before, but now she was really interested.

"Which temptress? Please elaborate."

Xia Xiaoman had spoken out, and no longer concealed anything, but rather filled his heart with bitterness, he gritted his teeth and told the secrets of the royal family.

It turned out that Emperor Xia Yuan was unlucky in his later years and was in danger of dying, so he took in a young and beautiful concubine.

That concubine was as beautiful as a flower and had a curvy figure. No matter who saw her, it was difficult to take her eyes away and their eyes were straightened. It is said that her appearance made even the concubines in the palace feel ashamed. I am willing to go out and walk on the same road as the new royal concubine.

But things started to go wrong in the otherwise good royal harem when the temptress came.

First, Queen Daqian fell ill mysteriously, leaving her two young siblings, Xia Xiaoman and Xia Jisheng, to die.

Later, Emperor Xia Yuan's temperament changed drastically. He ignored all the noble concubines, ignored state affairs, and lingered on the bed of his new concubine, living in a romantic and happy manner.

And Emperor Xia Yuan's health became worse and worse, and he eventually died.

Before Emperor Xia Yuan died, he somehow made the new concubine the queen and the master of the harem.

After the death of Emperor Xia Yuan, the new queen assisted the government from behind the curtain, saying that she was assisting the young prince in running state affairs. But now that the prince has grown up, this assistant government from behind the curtain has not been banned. Different voices gradually appeared in the Daqian Dynasty. .

These different voices caused the originally monolithic Daqian Dynasty to be divided into three factions.

One is the radical faction that firmly supports the new queen and supports the new queen's assistance in the government; the second is the opposition that opposes the new queen; and the third is the neutral faction that is indifferent to this and keeps to itself.

There were constant fights within the royal family, and the princes outside gradually became dissatisfied. They began to recruit troops and taxes, and secretly wanted to sit on the mountain and become the king.

In this clichéd and taken-for-granted story of royal struggle, the poor emperor who was silenced by the new queen was Xia Xiaoman's younger brother.

As we all know, the quality of a story depends on its perspective.

From Xia Xiaoman's perspective, the new queen was undoubtedly a temptress and deserved death. But looking at it from a neutral point of view, Yi Lin felt that this so-called "temptress" was quite capable. She was able to subvert a century-old dynasty with one person's strength, which was a bit of a trick.

If given the chance, Yi Lin would even like to see this temptress with her own eyes.

Maybe the conversation will be more enjoyable, and we can sit together and share our experiences of daily life.

Xia Xiaoman talked for half an hour in one breath, which made his mouth dry and his ears noisy.

But when she poured out most of the bitter water, she came back to her senses and found that the young man in front of her had blurred eyes, as if he was wandering in a fugue, and she suddenly became very angry.

She subconsciously picked up the bag in her arms and wanted to hit the boy's hateful face, but she suddenly remembered that the bag was much more valuable than the boy's face, so she resisted the impulse and asked patiently: "What on earth are you doing?" Are you listening?"

"Listen." Yi Lin's eyes returned to focus. He was indeed a little distracted just now, and he was not fully listening. He was mainly thinking about things based on the words of the eldest princess.

So, he roughly understood the situation of the eldest princess.

Yi Lin's eyes glanced at the eldest princess's luggage, and then her half-smiling eyes fell on the eldest princess's cute and red face again, and she slowly said: "The rank difference is too far."

"Rank?" Xia Xiaoman was stunned when he heard this, and his flat chest couldn't help but puff up a few inches.

"Yes, there is a huge gap between you and the new queen you mentioned."

"It's a temptress!" Xia Xiaoman corrected Yi Lin's words seriously.

"Let me just mention a few points. First, do you feel that you were too relaxed when you left Qingdu?"

Xia Xiaoman recalled the scene when he left Qingdu.

She went to Heianji Temple to have her head shaved.

Under the arrangement of a trusted courtier in the palace, a fake pass was issued, and the pass was indeed easy. At that time, she thought that she had shaved her head to prevent the other party from taking precautions, but now that she thought about it, the defense of the city gate seemed to be ridiculously lax at that time.

Thinking of this, Xia Xiaoman nodded with a dull face, which was regarded as recognition.

Yi Lin clapped her fingers and said: "Second, suppose that the new queen is just to blackmail the emperor to order the princes. You are just a eldest princess. It doesn't matter. Killing you will only make the topic worse, so let her go. Let her go, there is nothing wrong with that. But after you left Qingdu, she posted a high reward on the black market, causing worldly warriors, killers, and solitary cultivators to come after you one after another. Why?"

"Yes, why?"

Yi Lin did not explain, but smiled and broke off the third finger: "I understood a little bit when you mentioned your uncle, King Zhennan. Although there is chaos in the Daqian Dynasty, on the surface, the power is still unified, singing and dancing everywhere. Peace prevails and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Because there is indeed an orthodox emperor sitting in the palace, no one dares to take the lead in causing chaos. But suppose that you, the escaped eldest princess, have something key in your hand that can destabilize the throne, and you And suddenly I can’t think of anything else, I want to take refuge with someone who has a lot of troops...like the King of Zhennan or something like that?"

The eldest princess's little mouth suddenly opened into an "O" shape in surprise, and she vaguely understood something.

Ignoring the eldest princess's reaction, Yi Lin continued: "Before, Zen Master Kuye was here, and I gave him face but never mentioned it. Now that he is gone and you start making trouble again, I have to say a few words. You, Princess Dagan and Princess Zhenping, it doesn’t matter whether they are dead or alive. What that witch cares about is not your life at all. What she cares about may be something on your body, such as..."

When Xia Xiaoman heard this, he hugged the kit in his arms tightly.

Yi Lin flicked her fingers, and the cloth bag in Xia Xiaoman's arms suddenly popped out of her arms and opened in mid-air.

Rolls of black silk hair carefully tied into curls were scattered from the cloth bag.

Yi Lin was stunned, was it Xia Xiaoman's hair?

No, that's not the point.

The point is, among the long scattered hair, a dark green square jade seal fell from the air.

The surface of the jade seal is covered with jade texture, and a strange bright red color is faintly revealed in the deepest part. Just looking at the material, you can tell that it is not cheap.

"No!"

Xia Xiaoman was so anxious now that he reached out and dug into the air.

But how could she afford it more than Yi Lin? Yi Lin casually took a photo, and the black seal was pulled into Yi Lin's palm by an invisible hand.

Of course Yi Lin was not very interested in Xia Xiaoman's belongings, as it should be.

But when the seal touched Yi Lin's palm, Yi Lin's whole body was shocked, as if she had been electrocuted.

In front of my eyes, familiar words appeared.
