General, there is a demon [Rebirth]

Since Xiao Duo's attendance just now, Huo Changying has been paying attention to every move of the people around him, quietly counting the few people above the chief seat.

Concubine Nie is a noble concubine, second only to the king and empress in the harem, the mother of the third prince, and the cousin of Prime Minister Nie. Today she is wearing a pink gold-woven gown and twelve golden hairpins on her head. The corners of the slender eyes are upturned, and the facial features are gorgeous and mean.

Huo Changying's eyes swept over Nie Xiang and Nie Guifei, and he was surprised. If he read correctly, His Majesty's eyes gave warning just now. Nie Guifei was not afraid, but when he touched Nie Xiang's icy cold eyes, Sudden silence.

He turned the glass slightly, wondering if it's possible that Concubine Nie is more afraid of her cousin as the prime minister than the emperor's authority?

While looking away, from the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of the snow-white fox fur on the collar of Concubine Nie's cloak.

Huo Changying rubbed the wine glass with his fingertips, his eyes stayed on the snow-white fox fur for a while, and felt a line of sight in front of him. Huo Changying turned his head to meet Xiang Nie's gaze. His slender red phoenix eyes were somewhat similar to Concubine Nie's, but not The charm of a woman, with a cold scrutiny, is looking at him through the graceful dance of the dancer.

Huo Changying was suspicious, but he didn't want to cause trouble for Xiao Duo, so he minimized his sense of existence, and watched the dancing girl dance as if he didn't notice it.

On the other side, as soon as Queen Wang's words came out, Concubine Nie suddenly seemed to think of something, covered her lips with a smile, and said, "If you don't tell me, I will forget it. It is indeed a delicate thing, but..."

She paused while speaking, avoiding Xiang Nie, glanced at Huo Changying who was sitting on the seat, and said with a coquettish smile at the emperor: "However, my concubine heard that General Xiao, a wife who has never been in the family, knows some mysterious techniques. Today's New Year's Eve , why not let her show one or two, and let us have a fresh look."

Such words were to treat Huo Changying like an actor or actress. Xiao Duo frowned slightly when he heard the words, and the veins on the back of his hands protruded. The Duke of Jin who was sitting down heard this, and put the wine glass on the table, his face slightly sullen.

Even the emperor's eyebrows and eyes flashed a trace of displeasure, and he was about to refuse, but the back of his hand was gently held down.

Queen Wang shook her head at him, and then smiled kindly at Concubine Nie: "I have also heard that the Chang family is a powerful family, and their eclectic academic style is famous all over the world. There is nothing wrong with it, Concubine Nie, don't make a fuss."

In a few words, it not only clarifies the identity of the Chang family, but also euphemistically shows that Concubine Nie's knowledge is shallow.

Huo Changying saw all this in his eyes, and couldn't help but know more about Queen Wang.

Concubine Nie looked a little ugly, she smiled and lowered her head slightly, and said, "What the empress said is that the concubine is shallow."

As soon as Concubine Nie interrupted, the emperor also gave up his original idea of ​​calling Xiao Duo to come, and only rewarded Xiao Duo with some precious things that foreign countries attacked, and then asked people to retreat.

Before Xiao Duo returned to the seat, a servant on the road hugged him and said something in a low voice, Xiao Duo's expression changed, he turned and walked back.

When Huo Changying noticed, Xiao Duo's figure had turned around and disappeared.

Huo Changying's eyebrows twitched, feeling uneasy for no reason, but out of the corner of his eye, he still saw Nie Xiang's gaze cast on him from time to time, as if watching him.

Xiao Duo left the table for some unknown reason, Huo Changying had no choice but to stand still, the dance stopped, and some jugglers came up in a short while, all of them were small folk tricks, but they made the princes and concubines who had lived in the deep palace for a long time laugh frequently.

Naturally, the ministers were not surprised. They had banquets and drinks, chatted, and the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed.

As long as Nie Ran's eyes flashed a strange light on one of the jugglers, he regained his composure in a moment, but Huo Changying captured this moment. He looked back and forth between the young artist and Nie Xiang, and found that they didn't seem to know each other. Can not help but give birth to a trace of suspicion.

Just as one of the old men with a painted face was performing fire breathing, a little maid approached behind Huo Changying, and she said in a low voice, "The Empress asked the girl to go to the Taiye Pool for questioning."

Huo Changying's eyebrows twitched when he heard the words Taiyechi, and then he looked at the high seat, and found that the queen was nowhere to be seen, so he asked calmly, "Who summoned General Xiao to leave just now, is it the empress?"

"The maidservant only knows how to deliver the decree, and doesn't know anything else." The little maid raised her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, as if she didn't know more.

Seeing that Huo Changying didn't move, the little maid urged with some embarrassment: "This servant is just passing on the message. The Empress ordered the servant not to disobey, so I ask the girl to go along with the servant."

He dipped his hand into the wine glass, covered it with his long sleeves, and slid his fingers on the table, "Okay, please let me lead the way." Huo Changying lowered his head slightly, holding his long sleeves in front of him, but there was not a single trace of wine on the table. Water marks.

Huo Changying followed the little maid to the Taiye Pool, but along the way, he didn't see many maids in the palace, and when he reached the Taiye Pool, he didn't see the Queen.

"Miss, please wait here a moment." The little maid bowed her knees slightly, and then she also left.

The moon is bright and the stars are thin, the air is filled with the cold breath after the snow, and the night wind is cold.

Huo Changying walked up to the arched bridge on the pool, and the elegant fragrance of plum blossoms floated in the air. He leaned on the railing and looked into the pool water. There was no ripple on the calm lake surface. It was deep and dark like a beast crouching under it, opening its bloody mouth ready to devour it at any time. everything.

There was a slight sound in his ears, Huo Changying quietly touched the folding fan at his waist, and held his breath.

The voice from the bushes behind him was getting closer, Huo Changying turned around abruptly, pointed his folding fan directly at the bushes, and said in a low voice, "Who?"

Suddenly, the Taiye Pond, which was originally as calm as ancient water without waves, rolled and surged like hot water boiling. Huo Changying felt a huge monster power break through his sealed barrier, and instantly swept up his ankles, about to send him to the ground. Pull it into the pool!

Huo Changying was startled, he suddenly remembered a fatal fact that he had forgotten, that is - he was actually a landlubber.

There was a noise in the bushes behind him, but out of the corner of his eyes, Huo Changying suddenly caught a glimpse of a silhouette in a bright yellow robe rushing out from behind the bushes!

A faintly swaying bright yellow robe corner.

At the same time, above the palace banquet.

Xiao Duo returned to the seat, but found that Huo Changying was not there, he asked the servants around, but they all said they didn't know.

When he was distracted, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a red light flashing on the table, but it was the words "I am in Taiye Pond, I am afraid there will be a fraudulent speed", displayed on the table in such a big way, Xiao Duo was heartbroken. He was startled, but found that the people around him seemed to be invisible, and their expressions were normal. He raised his hand and rubbed it with his fingertips, but found that the handwriting hadn't disappeared even half of it.

Xiao Duo knew in his heart that it must be Changying's so-called magic.

Being able to send a message to him like this, there must be a reason why Changying had to go. He turned his head and looked at the chief seat.

Xiao Duo frowned, and walked quickly to the Taiye Pond.

On that side, behind the third prince, the little servant who had been bowing his head in silence saw the actions of Xiao Duo and Huo Changying. His fingers clenched at the bottom of his sleeve moved, and his thin lips were tightly pursed, as if he had finally made up his mind. Like, bowed his head and said something in the third prince's ear.

By the Taiye Pool, the evil wind was blowing, and the plum blossoms were falling in bursts.

Huo Changying was wrapped around his ankles by the slippery monster power, turned the folding fan in his hand, and quickly slashed at the black monster energy that was entangled with him with his backhand, only to hear a mournful long hiss from the gloomy lake water, the black monster energy was like vines generally quickly withdrawn.

While panting, Huo Changying kept playing Yinjia in his hands, and a huge invisible barrier net covered the surface of the pool, but the monster energy suddenly rose, bringing a huge splash of water and rushing towards the bright yellow figure behind him, Huo Changying Startled, he grabbed the man's sleeve and threw him out.

But the soaring demonic aura suddenly turned around, caged Huo Changying in it, and quickly dragged it to the depths of the pool.

Huo Changying felt that the pool of water instantly surrounded him, and the icy cold water rushed to his eyes, ears, mouth and nose in an instant. The feeling of suffocation made his eyes darken, and his neck was hurt by the evil spirit.

"—Elder baby!"

Just when his consciousness was about to disappear, a familiar voice came from the shore, and the voice was separated from the thick and dark pool water, unreal as if it was a world away.

Immediately afterwards, a figure in black clothes jumped down from the edge of the pool without hesitation.

Huo Changying's eyes blurred for a while. He reached out to grab the man's palm, but the gravity under the water slowed him down. His fingertips touched and then separated, and the force between his ankles pulled him insanely deep into the pool. go.

All of a sudden, his palm was held tightly by someone, and the sharp sword edge slid across his eyes, and slashed at the black shadow wrapped around his ankle with a clang, but there was no effect at all. Huo Changying suddenly thought of something, stretched out his hand Clenching the go-getter tightly, he slid it suddenly, and the blood spread instantly.

Xiao Duo didn't talk nonsense, the general swung at the bottom of the water with scarlet blood, and slashed straight at the black shadow.

A long and shrill howl pierced the eardrums, and the black shadow disappeared instantly. Xiao Duo pulled Huo Changying tightly, encircled him from behind, and led him to swim towards the surface of the water. With the sound of splashing water, the two of them surfaced.

"Changying!" Xiao Duo, who was dripping all over his body, patted the pale cheek of the person in his arms, calling out anxiously, but Huo Changying closed his eyes tightly, his lips were pale, and Xiao Duo's heart skipped a beat.

"General Xiao, how is this girl?" The bright yellow figure beside him saw the wound on Changying's palm and asked anxiously, "Do you need to pass on the imperial physician?"

He looked like a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, but his face was pale, and his breath became short of breath after a few words, as if someone who had lingered on a sick bed for a long time, was calling the crown prince who was not ill——Mu Gan.

Xiao Duo didn't care to salute the prince, but the prince didn't blame him, he continued to explain: "The lonely road passed by here, and I saw this girl fell into the water, and wanted to call someone to rescue her, but found that there was no guard around. Waiter..."

After saying all this, Xiao Duo knew in his heart that he did not know that he had offended that nobleman again, and even plotted against Changying, and in the water... he narrowed his eyes dangerously, did that person know this? Is there a demon in Taiye Pool?

The Changying was unconscious, Xiao Duo had rescued a drowning person before and knew how to rescue him, but this time the drowning person was his Changying, when he pressed his palm on his chest, he trembled a little more.

"Cough-cough-"

Huo Changying suddenly coughed out a mouthful of pool water and woke up. When he saw the anxious face of the man in front of him, he smiled, "The pool water is really cold in winter." He shivered violently as he spoke.

Seeing Huo Changying's heartless smile, Xiao Duo was short of breath, lowered his head and bit the young man's pale lips fiercely, and said through gritted teeth: "I'm not here, why are you taking risks like this?"

Huo Changying felt that he was wronged, so he wrapped his arms around the man's waist and bowed his head to move closer to Xiao Duo. Seeing his appearance, Xiao Duo was angry, but he couldn't bear to embarrass him. Caressing on the boy's cold back, the warm and mellow internal force is transmitted from the vest to the boy's limbs and bones.

The two were embracing each other to keep warm, but both ignored His Highness the Crown Prince who was standing aside. The Crown Prince stood there awkwardly, neither advancing nor retreating, after all, the woman fell into the water to save him.

"Is there really no need to pass on to the imperial physician? The wound on this girl's hand is still bleeding."

The two of them acted as if they had discovered the prince, Xiao Duo saluted and said: "I thank Your Highness for your kindness, but there is no need to bother the imperial physician in the palace. My wife is suffering from an old disease and is usually treated by the doctor in the mansion."

"So this is the rumored wife of General Xiao who has never been married?"

The prince was a little surprised, but felt he had lost his word, and wanted to say more, when the shrill voice of the old servant came from the corridor, "Bold, who is where?!"

He is the head servant next to the emperor.
