An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

When Wei Lian went back to the cage, it was already morning when he woke up.He lazily huddled under the blanket, feeling that the blanket in winter was so warm that people didn't want to move.

This is still miserable for the king of Qin, no matter whether it is cold, hot, winter or summer, he has to get up and go to court before the hour.Just thinking of this, Wei Lian has no interest in being king.

Are you uncomfortable sleeping under the covers?Whatever you do, you have to take on a bunch of things to torment yourself.

"My lord is awake." A court lady came in and put the clothes on the bedside, "Please change your clothes, lord."

Wei Lian glanced, it wasn't Zhucui who came.He had a good memory, and he remembered that the maid in front of him was in charge of serving King Qin to change clothes, her name was Zhuyue.

The appearance of the woman is not bad, she is as beautiful as the autumn moon, and as beautiful as peaches and plums.Such a beauty hangs around in front of the King of Qin all day long, but the King of Qin didn't even take her away.

It's really Liu Xiahui who doesn't understand the style.

Wei Lian put on his clothes slowly, while Zhu Yue hung her head down from the beginning to the end, without saying a word.

"You seem to have something to say to me." Wei Lian fastened his clothes lightly, and finally looked up at Zhuyue.

Zhu Yue's hand trembled, never thought that Young Master Lian's insight would be so keen.

Zhu Yue bowed her head and said: "Your Majesty ordered that if you feel bored staying in the house, you can go out for a walk."

Wei Lian stared at her for a moment: "But I'm not familiar with Qin Palace, so I don't know where to go."

These words hit Zhu Yue's heart, she was happy at first, but then she felt panic pierced through her mind, and said bravely: "Young servant can lead the way for young master."

Wei Lian smiled lightly: "Okay, then I'll be busy. Let's go now."

Zhuyue was taken aback for a moment: "My lord doesn't bring any attendants?"

Wei Lian should have Changsheng and Changshou by his side.

"No need. I'll come back as soon as I go." Wei Lian said.

Zhuyue didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and her footsteps were a little erratic when she turned around.

No, you can't come back.Zhuyue thought viciously.

She had never seen the smile of the young man behind her fade away, and there was a slight coolness in his eyes.

Wei Lian also wanted to know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this cunning maid.

Acting in front of him would be like playing tricks.Zhu Yue thought that she hid her emotions well, but she didn't know that in Wei Lian's eyes, the jealousy and fear were clearly written on her face.

A rabbit wants to send a sheep to the tiger's mouth, but he doesn't know that he is plotting against a lion king.

Very interesting.Wei Lian thought.

Zhu Yue led Wei Lian out of the palace gate.There has been no snowfall in the past few days, and the sun is warm and warm, and it is a bit pleasant to shine on the body.The snow on the ground has not yet melted, and it is a vast expanse of whiteness from a distance, which is too beautiful to behold.

"At this time, the plum blossoms in the Yimei Garden are in full bloom. The servant girl will take you there to have a look." Zhu Yue said, leading Wei Lian to the southeast.

Yimeiyuan is indeed in that direction.What Zhuyue didn't say was that there were two palace roads leading from the Hall of Mental Cultivation to Yimei Garden, and the other one that palace people usually walked.

...Because the road they are taking now passes through the animal house, where the mastiffs raised by His Majesty are there.

That mastiff was a gift from Liang Guo two years ago.His Majesty raised it from its infancy until now it is two years old.Half a man tall, with a ferocious temperament and immense strength, he has saved His Majesty's life several times, and is very much loved by His Majesty.

Many assassins tried to assassinate His Majesty in vain, but their throats were bitten off by mastiffs before they got close.There is still a knife wound on the mastiff's back, which was blocked for His Majesty.

His Majesty raised him with raw meat, and the mastiff could swallow the assassin alive if he bit the assassin.After eating human flesh, it became even more unruly, even three or five generals couldn't subdue it.

It is only affectionate to His Majesty, it is very cruel to the rest.Even the animal eunuchs only dared to put food in the bucket while it was sleeping, and did not dare to approach it during the rest of the time.

Otherwise, there is no reason to be bitten to death.Their lives are not as good as a dog's life in His Majesty's eyes.

This is the case in the palace, people are not as good as dogs.

Mastiffs are free range, neither in cages nor on chains.His Majesty would sometimes go to play with it, but most of the time he would sleep lazily in the zoo.It doesn't usually go out, and only encloses the animal farm as its own territory. Except for seeing the animal eunuch, it will turn a blind eye, and treat anyone who breaks into the animal farm except His Majesty as an enemy , without hesitation to attack and cull.

There was a palace official who strayed into the zoo and was bitten to death by the mastiff on the spot. Half of the body was swallowed whole by the mastiff, and the other half was restrained and buried hastily. He died so silently, and there was no justice in the end.

Zhuyue wants to get rid of Wei Lian through the mouth of the mastiff.

Zhuyue's abacus is very good.She lured Wei Lian to the veterinary, and when Wei Lian was swallowed by the mastiff, he would die without proof. No one knew that she had lured him there on purpose.

Jealousy can cloud a person's mind.Zhuyue didn't have the guts to kill people, but once she felt a little bit unwilling, she would have boundless evil thoughts.

As it got close to the boundary of the zoo, Zhuyue didn't dare to go any further, fearing that she would also provoke the ferocious mastiff.She pretended to have a stomachache, covered her lower abdomen, and let out a ouch: "Oh, maidservant...The maidservant suddenly feels unwell, so I have to go to Gongfang. Young master, there is Yimeiyuan in front of you. You take two more steps, maidservant Go and come back."

After Zhu Yue finished speaking, she hurried away without waiting for Wei Lian to answer.

Wei Lian stayed where he was, and when Zhuyue disappeared from sight, he turned and left without hesitation.

He already knew that there was something wrong with the court lady, and when he went back, he only had to ask other people where this place was, and he would know exactly what Zhuyue wanted to do.Then why did he take the risk himself to verify this unknown.

He is not stupid.

But that maid is a fool.Do you really think that when they come out together, if something happens to him, she will die?

"I haven't seen such a fool in 800 years." Wei Lian sighed.

He was about to leave when he suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind, his footsteps paused slightly, a cold light flashed between his fingers, and a few silver needles appeared instantly.

Wei Lian turned around, and the silver needle pierced into the visitor's body in an instant.

The giant mastiff's fur is smooth and majestic, with a thick golden mane around its head, just like a golden lion king.

It was about to pounce on Wei Lian with its fangs and claws, but it was restrained by a few small silver needles, fell from mid-air, and froze on the ground.

"Oh?" Wei Lian narrowed his eyes, "I thought it was something, it turned out to be you little thing."

Giant mastiff: "..."

little things?Can you say that again?

Its dignity is gone!

The giant dog stuck out its tongue, bared its teeth, and made a vicious look, trying to scare off this daring human: "Wow!"

Wei Lian frowned, disgusted with its saliva: "Shut your mouth."

The giant dog barked louder and fiercer: "Wow woof!!!"

Wei Lian's eyes turned cold: "The dog raised by the dog emperor is really not easy to kill..."

The moment the young man's eyes turned cold, the giant dog instinctively felt a hint of danger, and thick fear flashed across the eyes of the beast.

It knelt on its forelegs and lay down on the ground to show its submission.

Animals have the strongest ability to detect danger.Intuition told it that the human in front of it should not be provoked.It is the instinct of animals to absolutely surrender to the strong.

Wei Lian put on a gentle smile again, took back the silver needle and hid it in the bracelet, as if the killing intent just now didn't exist: "That's good."

Seeing that the silver needle threatening its life was not there, the giant dog scratched its front paws, and let out a dangerous growl, ready to attack again.

Wei Lian gently patted its head, just stroking its Achilles' heel: "It looks so cute, it must be delicious when made into a braised lion's head."

Giant dog: "... woo woo woo."

Master where are you?Why did you put such a dangerous human in it.

Others come in as food, and this young man treats it as food.

Just miserable.

The entire giant dog was listless, lying listlessly on the ground.

Master, come and save my dog's life!

Master... Huh?The master is coming!

Seeing the black-clothed man appearing in sight, Gouzi's eyes lit up, and immediately stood up, jubilantly wanting to pounce over, throwing himself into his master's arms for fun.

…Then it stared dumbfounded at the young man who was ruthless to it just now, and ran over faster than it to occupy the arms of its master, lying weakly in the arms of the master: "Your Majesty I'm so scared!"

Giant Dog: "..."

Is this scene real?

Shouldn't it be me who should be afraid?

Gouzi was confused.

Ji Yue looked down at the young man in his arms, and was stunned for a moment.

Considering that there was a group of followers behind him, he quickly hugged the young man in his arms and asked, "Why are you here?"

After he went down to court, because he remembered the embarrassing situation in the morning and the beautiful dream last night, he didn't want to go back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to face the youth for the time being.

... It's not that he has no face to face, it's just that he doesn't want to see him alone.

After thinking about it again and again, Ji Yue decided to go to the zoo to see the dog first.

But he didn't expect Wei Lian to rush forward.

Wei Lian raised his head and said with red eyes: "I've been in the palace for a long time, and I want to come out to have a look... Who would have thought that a dog would come out suddenly... I'm most afraid of dogs!"

Giant Dog: "..."

I'm more afraid of you, thank you.

Ji Yue looked at the reddish eyes of the young man, and his slightly trembling body because of lingering fear, and suddenly remembered the dream from last night.

The young man in his arms also had rosy eyes and trembling body...

cough cough cough.

Stop this kind of thinking.

This matter is indeed not to be underestimated.If he was one step late, the young man would have been eaten alive by the mastiff.

Thinking of this possibility, Ji Yue's heart shrank suddenly, and he also felt a little afraid.

Wei Lian is a very interesting character.If he died, the Qin Palace would be boring again.

The mastiff who reads the master's mind from the eyes is very desperate: Master, if you come one step later, I should be the one who was eaten alive!

Ji Yue comforted him: "It's okay, Ah Meng is just playing for a while, so I can't hurt you. Don't look at it as fierce, in fact, the dog is just like its name, cute and soft."

Wei Lian paused.

King Qin called the golden-haired lion king Ameng? ? ?

Adjective is cute? ? ?

Yes, this is King Qin.
