"No, you listen to my explanation..."
Lou Qingyan can now feel the feelings of those heroines in film and television dramas.
When viewers watch TV, they always feel that "listen to my explanation" is silly. If you have something to say directly, what are these words that are trying to cover up?
However, it was only when I got to myself that I couldn't organize words to explain the complicated situation at this moment.
But Lu Yu is not like those protagonists in film and television dramas.
He approached step by step in the heavy rain, his eyes fixed on Lou Qingyan.
The voice was soft but somewhat cool.
"Then you explain."
Lou Qingyan was about to speak, but stopped.
How can he explain?
Saying that he is not from this world?Said that his mission must usurp the throne?Say he can know the future?
"I……"
His mouth was wide open, his eyes were wide open, and he forgot to blink.
The rainwater flowed into the eye sockets, which hurt a little.
Lu Yu walked up to him, tilted his head to look at him, the hair on his forehead fell down.
"Look at you, it's been too hard to hide."
Lu Yu put his hand on the side of his face, soft and harmless.
He wiped the rouge on Lou Qingyan's face, as if he was stroking an intimate lover.
But Lou Qingyan knew that Lu Yu at this moment was terrifying, much scarier than what he showed.
"Lu Yu, wait a minute."
"Wait, what are you waiting for?" Lu Yu narrowed his eyes and couldn't see his emotions clearly, "Look, it's been a long time since you wanted to call me Lu Yu like this, right? Has it been pushed up for a long time?"
"I……"
The next moment, the hand on the side of his face suddenly lifted his collar.
Lou Qingyan had a ferocious expression: "What do you want to do?"
Lu Yu suddenly grinned: "Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
He lifted him in front of him, and the tips of their noses touched slightly.
"I just want you to experience how uncomfortable I am after being betrayed." Lu Yu's voice was very gentle, but his words were like a devil, "Look, it's like this."
Lou Qingyan blushed, feeling a little bit of air loss.
Lu Yu let go of him, and with a shake, he fell to the wet ground.
Lou Qingyan lay on the ground, gasping for breath, because he was breathing so fast that he even choked the rainwater into his mouth.
Lu Yu slowly squatted down: "How long have you been following me secretly by pretending to be sick? You want to give the Sky Eagle Talisman to King Yan. You really love my brother."
"The Eagle Talisman is not for the King of Yan." Lou Qingyan stood up and looked at him, "I am not in alliance with the King of Yan."
"Brother, brother, it's already this time, are you still not telling me the truth?" Lu Yu's smile disappeared, "Then tell me, what's the use of you holding the Sky Eagle Talisman? You are not from the royal family, even if that one The troops only obey orders from the Sky Eagle Talisman, but without news from the royal family, you can't get in touch with that army at all."
I just can't let you get the Eagle Talisman, and I can't let the plot in the original book repeat itself.
The words were stuck in Lou Qingyan's throat, but she couldn't utter them at all.
"Ahem." He coughed violently.
Lu Yu stood up, his eyes were cold: "Are you still pretending? No wonder the second uncle can't see the lesions, it's just your disguise."
Lou Qingyan's eyes turned red all of a sudden: "Lu Yu, you...cough, speak well. I didn't pretend."
"Brother, tell me, what should I believe in your words?"
Lu Yu picked up Lou Qingyan and brought him up in front of his eyes: "After you entertained all the officials from the palace, you became very strange. I thought you had changed back to your original appearance, but things seemed to be more serious. It's complicated. How many things are you hiding from me?"
Lou Qingyan narrowed her eyes in pain.
Lu Yu suddenly reached out to snatch the Eagle Talisman from his arms.
"no!"
Lou Qingyan's first reaction was to reach out to stop Lu Yu.
Lu Yu didn't expect Lou Qingyan's reaction to be so big, he was taken aback for a moment, and his face became even more gloomy after he recovered.
"Your friendship with King Yan is really deep."
"I do not have it!"
Lou Qingyan wanted to argue feebly at first, but suddenly his expression changed and he curled up.
The Skyhawk Talisman that the two fought over was already boiling hot.
And Lou Qingyan covered the back of her neck with one hand, with a painful expression on her face.
Lu Yu's pupils constricted.
It was very dark in the backyard, the dark clouds covered the moonlight, only the faintly glowing cauldron could illuminate everything around.
Under the dim light, Lou Qingyan's expression was ferocious. The strange black lines on the back of his neck were the source, spreading out like a swarm of ants, forming strange lines, gradually occupying his neck, face, and torso...
Such a scene also appeared by the river last time.
Lu Yu let go of him, and took a step back in a daze.
The air flow around them gradually accelerated, as if being sucked in by Lou Qingyan.
Lou Qingyan's expression relaxed, as if he couldn't feel the pain, he was numb and lifeless.
Between his open palms, air circulated, gradually forming the shape of a long knife.
Lu Yu instantly connected many things.
"It was the Sky Eagle Talisman that activated this demon sword..."
The air flow gradually calmed down, Lou Qingyan was like a puppet who had lost his soul, holding a knife, his eyes couldn't focus.
The heavy rain is still falling, and the humid water vapor in the air seems to be suffocating.
Lu Yu knew that when Lou Qingyan became like this, he would lose his mind and everything would be out of control.
But he didn't move, and he didn't even withdraw the momentum that was revealed.
Losing his mind, Lou Qingyan slashed at him with a knife.
Lu Yu dodged sideways, then took a step up, approaching Lou Qingyan directly.
He grabbed Lou Qingyan's shoulder and pushed him onto the huge bronze cauldron; "Come on, kill me."
Lou Qingyan opened his mouth angrily like an enraged beast, wanting to charge up again.
Lu Yu pressed forward step by step, and continued to push him against the huge bronze tripod.Lou Qingyan's strength was too great, and he hit Lu Yu's chest with an elbow, and blood dripped from the corner of Lu Yu's mouth.
However, even so, Lu Yu still had red eyes and pressed him firmly against the bronze tripod. Even though Lou Qingyan's strength nearly shattered his whole body, he didn't seem to feel the slightest threat.
Lu Yu pressed Lou Qingyan desperately, and moved his head closer: "I resign myself to fate, you have no feelings for me at all. But even so, so what, I won't let go, even if I die, I won't let go. "
Lou Qingyan couldn't hear what he was saying, and still roared and resisted like a beast.
Lu Yu couldn't stop the violent Lou Qingyan, finally, after a long confrontation, Lou Qingyan pushed Lu Yu to the ground.
When Lu Yu fell down, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the next second, Lou Qingyan roared and pressed on him, raised the knife with both hands, and swung it.
Lu Yu's facial features twisted together, and he raised his hand to hold the blade. The scar on the inside of his palm was horrific, and the blood was rushing down slowly along his wrist, dyeing his arms bright red.
"You want me to die so much." Lu Yu grinned, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth to his collarbone, "When you wake up, you will be very happy to see me dead."
"But I can't die."
"No matter what, I can't watch you become someone else's person." His eyes were fierce and his hands were trembling.
The blade seemed to be really shaken, moving up inch by inch.
In the darkness, Lou Qingyan's eyes were slightly different from the last runaway.
The unfocused pupils moved slightly, as if they were trying to find a target to focus on.
whoosh-
A piercing sound suddenly sounded.Before Lu Yu realized the surrounding situation, Lou Qingyan was thrown away.
He became even angrier, and stood up to continue swinging the knife.
Only then did Lu Yu see clearly that the visitors were two people in identical purple outfits.
The two were wearing ankle-length Taoist uniforms, black hats, and black veils on their faces.
Taoist priest?
When Lou Qingyan was about to get up to fight back, the two of them formed seals suddenly and recited scriptures.
This scene is extremely funny.Lou Qingyan's knife was getting closer and closer to them, but they only focused on chanting sutras, calm and composed.
The blade was only an inch away from the face of one of them!
Just as the scriptures for the two of them were finished reading, the talisman on their hands turned——Lou Qingyan remained motionless as if he had been immobilized.
Only then did the two spit out a mouthful of blood, and their bodies collapsed.
Lu Yu stood up with difficulty: "You are..."
The two turned their heads slightly, but without stopping, they flew away and disappeared.
No wonder the surrounding guards didn't move.Was it done by these two people?
who are they?This uniform... where does it belong?
Why were they able to stop Lou Qingyan?
Lou Qingyan went to a blank place after losing control of her body this time.
But this time the system didn't move.
He was thinking of finding the reporting channel from the auxiliary panel to report this negligent system.
A person wanders in a blank spiritual world, and various thoughts can circle in his mind.
Lu Yu realized that he was lying to him, but mistakenly thought that he had voted for King Yan's camp.
How can I turn myself over?
And more importantly, what might happen next to bring all three armies together?
Lou Qingyan calculated various situations in his head, but in the end he could only sigh and sit powerlessly in the white world.
Fighting against the sky is really a lot of fun.
Until he returned to his body, he couldn't calculate anything.
With an apprehensive and fearful heart, I can only open my eyes and face the world after my overturned car.
His eyelids moved slowly, and his pupils, which had been in the dark for a long time, were slowly stimulated by the light.
The first thing that catches the eye is a red light group...
red?
Lou Qingyan had a bad feeling.
Before he could see his surroundings clearly, he smelled a little sandalwood on the tip of his nose.
That was Lu Yu's favorite incense, it was his taste.
The eyes gradually adjusted to the surrounding light.
Above the head is a bright red gauze.
not right...
What unfolds?
In the first ending that the system showed him, the two of them were surrounded by bright red gauze curtains and curtains.
No, I guessed it the other way around, right?Is it not the first ending?
He was about to stand up with a carp.
In the next second, he gasped.
This time, they didn't use the chain array against him, but his limbs were still fixed to the bed.
What fastened him was a gold chain, very thin, like a necklace, but evidently made in a special way.Lou Qingyan even felt that these chains restricted his true energy more than the previous iron chain array.
But what made him panic was not the ability of these chains to seal Qi, but...
Why did they make the chain like this?
All his clothes had been removed except for a clean shirt.
He was placed in a warm and comfortable room with soft bedding, and the high-quality charcoal fire in the room was continuously delivering heat.
However, all the fabrics in this room are bright red, and the lighting is dim, and the secret spices are burning in the exquisite hollow incense burner, exuding a delicate fragrance.
Coupled with the slender but delicate appearance of this chain, it is hard not to think of those unspeakable hobbies in the deep palaces of the emperors of all dynasties.
Lou Qingyan's brain roared early: 【How could this happen!Doesn't it mean to develop according to "no interception"? ! 】
The system quietly said: [Yeah, you didn't capture it. 】
Lou Qingyan: [The words that were not intercepted, wouldn't the result be a confrontation between the three armies?How could it be the same as the first ending? 】
The system smiled ambiguously: [Isn't this the same as your original plan?Didn't you already intend to bow down to him for your life? 】
Lou Qingyan: [Can the situation be the same now?Lu Yu was a modest gentleman before, but now I've overturned, he's turned black!How dare I continue with the first ending? 】
Maybe the first ending...he couldn't save his life either.
The system appeases the furious him at the right time: [You carefully compare the picture of the first ending with this one, the layout of the room is different. 】
Only then did Lou Qingyan feel relieved, called up the auxiliary panel, and carefully compared the picture of the first ending with the surrounding layout.
After the comparison, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, although they look similar, they are not the same.
It shows that Lu Yu may not necessarily attack him like in the first ending.
However, the system of killing thousands of swords added: [Although it is not the first ending, but...Lu Yu might have the same idea, hehe, look at this room, it looks like it is in the palace, but a servant Nothing... so secretive, hee hee. 】
Lou Qingyan: [I want to complain to you. 】
System: [Kiss, we don't have a complaint channel.By the way, don't block me, it's useless.Because I'm going to cut off contact with you, I don't want the live broadcast room to be blocked for the second time because of the color, okay~]
It went offline before Lou Qingyan was furious.
Lou Qingyan half leaned on the bed, her breathing gradually accelerated.
As soon as he moved, his skin would touch the cold chains.
This touch gave him a very bad feeling.
I don't know what kind of material these chains are made of. Even though they are covered in the quilt, they cannot be warmed, and they have always been so cold.
This made Lou Qingyan try his best to avoid moving, so as not to touch the cold again in the warmth.
After a long time, no one came.
He was finally bored, he stood up and looked at the room in his spare time.
This room is extremely large, and the furniture and tents are all standard in the palace.
In the deepest part of the room is a big bed, with several layers of gauze curtains with different patterns and patterns scattered on the top of the bed.Candlelight on the walls on both sides just illuminated the bed.
The gauze curtains were tied up, and the person on the bed was in the center of the candlelight.
Lou Qingyan waited for a long time, and finally decided to get out of bed and take a walk.However, as soon as his feet touched the cold ground, he retracted.
His body was shaking.
Lou Qingyan frowned.Is my body really so weak?Is it because of the rain, or the sequelae after being taken over by Fushiya?
Suddenly, he heard a voice.
The servants guarding the door began to move around, someone was about to come in.
Lou Qingyan's whole body tensed up, and she quickly collapsed, pretending to be unconscious.
One person's footsteps got closer and closer, and finally stopped in front of Lou Qingyan's bed.
Lou Qingyan turned her back to him, her eyelashes fluttered slightly because of anxiety.
"Stop pretending. Isn't faking a coma enough these days?"
Lou Qingyan stood up in embarrassment, and slowly turned around.
Lu Yu was wearing a dragon robe, with the most formal shape from head to toe.
His face was expressionless and his words were without emotion.
Lu Yu, who was softly called senior brother before, disappeared.
But Lou Qingyan let out a sigh of relief.
He was even more afraid that the distance between Lu Yu and himself was too close, and Lu Yu with such a sense of distance made him feel safer.
Lou Qingyan wanted to say something, but he didn't know what words could start a normal conversation for them in such an embarrassing situation.
Silence spread in Dahong's room.
Lu Yu was startled suddenly, as if he remembered something, walked over and lifted his chin.
Lou Qingyan's eyes widened.
What does he want to do?Just now he looked like a gentleman, so how can he change?
Lu Yu lifted the black hair on his shoulders, exposing his neck.
"The pattern hasn't faded..." Lu Yu's eyes changed suddenly, "Have you recovered your sanity yet?"
Lou Qingyan suddenly remembered.
In order to cover up his actions in the prison, he once lied to him that when the patterns on his body were not faded, although he could speak, his mind was still controlled by the demon knife.
And when under the control of the demon knife, it will become the same as in the sky prison.
Lou Qingyan's face turned red instantly.
If he knew at that time that he would run away and be tied up for the second time, he would not have lied like that.
But the only way to complete a lie is to use the second lie, which is really pretending to be insane.
Otherwise, what happened in the dungeon was done by him in a sane way... Lu Yu, he would take it seriously.
The blackened Lu Yu took what happened in the dungeon seriously.
The consequences could be disastrous.
After Lu Yu's words came out, Lou Qingyan's plans were repeated one after another.He didn't know that when he thought about these things, his cheeks became more and more red.
Lu Yu dragged his chin, watching his expression slowly change.
"It's better to be a brother like this. He won't hide his thoughts, he can only follow me."
Lou Qingyan was startled behind her back, but she didn't dare to reveal her timidity.
Pretend to be insane, just like in the dungeon...
Lu Yu's voice was low, and his laughter echoed in the empty room: "Brother, look at how you look now."
As he spoke, he held Lou Qingyan's chin and forced him to turn his head.
There is a mirror there.
Lou Qingyan in the mirror is coquettishly beautiful.
His appearance is really good, even if he is seriously ill and pale, he can only add a little weakness to his face, the blush flying on his cheeks and pale lips coexist on the same face, without any sense of abruptness.
The black pattern on his neck hadn't faded completely, and it faintly spread to the jaw line, adding a bit of threat to him, like flowers in the deep forest, warning the enemy with symbols.
But at this moment, he was so fragile that he could break if he was pinched.Such warnings and threats add to their own temptation for nothing.
Lou Qingyan swallowed involuntarily, and her Adam's apple moved slightly.
Lu Yu noticed his movement, and slowly stroked his Adam's apple with his hand against his chin.
Lou Qingyan immediately stopped moving.
He tried his best to control his breathing, not to show himself too flustered, and to expose the lies of his insanity.
"Brother, have you been like this all along?"
Lu Yu's voice softened.
But it felt different from what he had said before.
If it is said that he was relying on his senior from the bottom of his heart before, now he seems to be trying to reduce his sense of threat so as to lower the vigilance of the prey, and then prepare to kill the target.
Lou Qingyan raised her eyes and met his eyes, pretending not to understand.
"Haven't I always been like this?"
Lu Yu smiled.
Alarm bells rang in Lou Qingyan's heart.
No way... Lu Yu, he...
Unexpectedly, Lu Yu just pinched his face, and then withdrew his hand.
Only then did Lou Qingyan notice that his hands were completely covered by bandages.
He didn't know what he did to Lu Yu when he lost control, so he looked at Lu Yu carefully at this time.
Lu Yu's hands were wrapped in bandages.On the neckline of the well-dressed dragon robe, a little bandage was exposed because of his movements.
Shocked by Lu Yu's injury, Lou Qingyan couldn't help but relax, revealing the shock in his heart.
Before he turned around, Lu Yu leaned forward and tasted his lips.
Lou Qingyan was not surprised this time.He was a workaholic before wearing books, and his love life was extremely poor.
This seemed to be the pair of lips he was most familiar with.
However, Lu Yu was not limited to this kiss.
He moved away gradually, and began to kiss Lou Qingyan's chin, biting lightly while kissing.
He gradually passed the chin, jaw, to the Adam's apple.
Lou Qingyan finally couldn't hold back anymore, and couldn't help but want to push him away.
"Don't move. Don't force me." Lu Yu's voice was terribly deep.
Lou Qingyan's back stiffened, and his whole body froze.
Finally, Lu Yu stopped.
When he raised his head, Lou Qingyan was a little shocked.
Lu Yu's eyes were red.
It's not a ruthless red, it's more like... hiding a sadness that is about to burst from his chest.
Lu Yu pushed him away nonchalantly with his bandage-bound hands, raised the corners of his mouth, and said nonchalantly, "You're wounded, otherwise you're not so lucky. But it's okay to quench your thirst."
Turn around and leave.
The indifference in his tone was like a needle, piercing Lou Qingyan's heart.
Lou Qingyan grabbed Lu Yu's loose sleeve robe subconsciously.
Lu Yu's back froze.He turned his face to the side very slowly, and looked at him coldly from the corner of his eye.
Lou Qingyan's face turned redder than before.
Anyway, no matter what he does now, Lu Yu will feel that it is because the knife interferes with his sanity.
Lou Qingyan made up her mind, got off the bed and entangled Lu Yu.
His hands lightly brushed the corners of Lu Yu's red eyes.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
He closed his eyes and kissed Lu Yu drunkenly.
Lu Yu didn't move, and let him kiss, his eyes didn't move, not even surprised.
In the room, there was only the crisp sound of the chains on Lou Qingyan's body colliding with each other.
The dragon robe on Lu Yu's body was not messy, and his back was straight.
It wasn't until Lou Qingyan was almost out of breath from the kiss that he stretched out his hand, wrapped his arms around Lou Qingyan's back, and patted him lightly on the back.
However, she resolutely pushed him away and strode out of the room.
Lou Qingyan was the only one left in the empty room.
The room returned to the loneliness before, and the candlelight flickered, rippling the red light and shade in the room.
After the system went online, he told Lou Qingyan a lot of things after he lost control.
Lou Qingyan knew about those two men in purple, and also knew how crazy Lu Yu was at that time, and how deeply he hurt him.
The system also told Lou Qingyan that after the man in purple's spell took effect, his knife returned to the symbol on the back of his neck, and the Sky Eagle Talisman, together with the knife, also lodged in his body.
The system sighed: [That's good, you have a gold medal for avoiding death.Although I don't know how to take out the Skyhawk Talisman, but now you can be equivalent to the Skyhawk Talisman, and they won't touch you. 】
Lou Qingyan fell into silence after hearing this.
【He raised me in the palace like this because of the Eagle Talisman? 】
The system scratched his head: [Don't think too much, he is also a knife-mouthed tofu-hearted.After all, it's normal for the little wolf dog to be ruthless after being hurt by you. 】
[His indifference is a bit scary. 】
The system hates iron but not steel: 【Don't be so listless!You clearly have a good hand now!Think about what your own mission is?It is usurper!You are now equivalent to a walking Skyhawk Talisman, with your own golden body. If you contact the secret magic army, you may even turn the tables! 】
Lou Qingyan: [Yes...]
System: [Are you so in love with brains? 】
Lou Qingyan coughed: [You're right, it's better to focus on the task.He's just a character anyway. 】
System: [That's right!Something is going to happen recently, so you prepare early. 】
Only then did Lou Qingyan remember that Lu Yu's birthday is coming soon according to the time calculation.
Next, there will be two major events connected together, one is Lu Yu's birthday party, and the third day after Lu Yu's birthday party is the No. 11 sacrificial ceremony that was originally scheduled.
Although the Sky Eagle Talisman has already appeared, this matter is top secret.In order to hide that he has found the Sky Eagle Talisman and deal a fatal blow to others, Lu Yu will definitely let the public sacrifice proceed as scheduled.
System: [Lu Yu's birthday party is tomorrow. 】
Lou Qingyan: [But he won't let me out. 】
System: [This is not necessarily the case.According to the etiquette system, on the morning of the emperor's birthday, the astrologer needs to perform a grand divination to pray for the emperor. 】
Lou Qingyan smiled wryly: [I am already like this, they have already changed the astrologer. 】
[But I think Lu Yu will want you to go. 】
Lou Qingyan fell into silence.
the next morning.
Lou Qingyan sat in the room.A long golden chain came out from the depths of the room and dragged on the ground.
[Why is there no news yet. 】
Lou Qingyan waited for a long time.
The windows in the room were shaded by thick curtains.Only the little light coming through the door paper can be used to judge the time.
The light outside the window became brighter and brighter, Lou Qingyan slowly walked towards the door.
The chain was just the right length, and when he was within an arm's length of the door, it tightened.
Lou Qingyan stood where he was, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open.
The guards and palace servants on duty outside the door were immediately alert: "What's the matter?"
Lou Qingyan's eyelashes drooped, hiding all emotions: "I am an astrologer, and I need to pray for the emperor today."
Guard: "The emperor has appointed a new astrologer, which has nothing to do with you."
"Then you go and inform the emperor." Lou Qingyan raised his eyes, his eyes were deep, "Lou Qingyan wants to pray for him."
The guard hesitated for a moment.According to the order, he didn't actually need to communicate.
But that look made him flustered.
He hesitated and left: "This, the emperor will not agree."
"You pass it on." Lou Qingyan laughed wantonly.
The first part of the emperor's birthday banquet is to offer sacrifices and pray for blessings.
All the officials wore court clothes, lined up solemnly, and completed a series of sacrificial activities in accordance with etiquette.
Finally, came the part of praying.
However, the astrologer who presided over the sacrifice just now disappeared.
The officials were silent, but their eyes were wandering, as if they wanted to get some confusion from others.
The emperor sat on the throne with a serious and serious face.
He knew what was going to happen, but his expression didn't change the slightest.
In the silence, a pair of imperial guards came up the stairs.
The courtiers were even more suspicious.
Finally, a man dressed in the court uniform of an astrologer came up surrounded by the imperial guards.
"Who is he?"
"Why are there two astrologers?"
"Why did the forbidden army come up?"
In the past, the shaman always wore a mask, but few people saw Lou Qingyan's real face.
But Li Wen, Lu Jin and others who had seen Lou Qingyan's real face became extremely frightened.
Lou Qingyan's face was still sick, but his expression was very relaxed, and his pair of red phoenix eyes narrowed slightly against the sunlight.
He bowed.
Lu Yu was expressionless.
Lou Qingyan walked onto the stage slowly, and picked up the blessing bell from the shelf on one side.
clang--
The ribbon on the bell swayed in the air.
clang - clang -
The bell was facing the sun, and it made a crisp sound.
clang - clang - clang -
A pair of slender, pale hands held the bell and closed their hands together.The bell swayed constantly between the slender fingers.
Lou Qingyan finally turned around, facing Lu Yu.
He stood upright, without the slouching that a patient should have.
The sun shone on his side face, illuminating the smile on this face with boundless warmth.
Lou Qingyan raised his eyes, his eyes passed through the officials in the square in front of the hall, and fell on Lu Yu's cold and serious face.
He smiled brightly and innocently, as if he was not affected by the indifference on Lu Yu's face.
The courtier bowed heavily.
There are no clouds in the sky.The air was scorched to smell like summer, which formed a weird contrast with the snow on the eaves of the main hall.
Time was slowed down.
There were hundreds or thousands of people in the square in front of Mingming Hall, but only Lu Yu sat facing south, and Lou Qingyan stood facing north.
Their eyes collided where no one could see.
Slowly, Lou Qingyan raised the bell above his head, maintained this posture and slowly knelt down, like all courtiers.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live—"
In the square in front of the hall, everyone said in unison.
Lu Yu stared at the figure in the astrological suit, watched him slowly kneel down, watched him slowly lower his head, and watched him say the same words as the courtiers.
"Pray for blessings—" the imperial eunuch hung his voice.
The courtier just got up.
But before anyone could stand still, Lu Yu suddenly walked away.
Everyone below was a little flustered.
"Your Majesty, this is..."
On the altar, Lou Qingyan stood up, lowered her eyes, and stood docilely without any movement.
The imperial eunuch is such a fine person, he only panicked for a moment, and immediately understood.
"The banquet begins, and all the officials are seated—"
The courtiers entered the hall under the organization.
The emperor's birthday, the world came to congratulate.
The banquet went well.
Lu Yu laughed when he should laugh, and was serious when he should be serious.
As the atmosphere grew stronger, the joy on his face became more and more intense.
But none of them could see that the ancient well in his eyes was calm from beginning to end.
Time passed, and everything went smoothly according to the process.
Lu Xian left the scene and walked towards the bedroom surrounded by the palace people.
It was much cooler after nightfall, and the moment he went out, the cold wind blew away the alcohol smell on his face.
The eunuch hurriedly moved closer, bringing the guard of honor closer together to shield Lu Yu from the wind and cold.
Lu Yu stopped suddenly: "Zhang De."
The eunuch: "The old slave is here."
Lu Yu said, "Go to He Yi Tang."
The chief eunuch Zhang De was a little hesitant: "Your Majesty wants...to see that one?"
"Otherwise." A little impatience crossed Lu Yu's face.
Zhang De patted his leg: "Look at this old servant's memory, I forgot to remind His Majesty. Mr. Lou is still in Tianyin Pavilion."
"What is he doing in Tianyin Pavilion?"
Zhang De: "Your Majesty, after praying for blessings on your birthday, the astrologer will go to Tianyin Pavilion to give lectures and chant scriptures for the royal family until late at night."
"Look at my memory," Lu Yu let out a long breath, "No, why did he go? Where's the new astrologer?"
"Mr. Lou said that he was the one who prayed for you during the day, and he should be the one to complete the rest of the work. The imperial guards are waiting around the Tianyin Pavilion, and nothing will happen."
Lu Yu was silent for a while.
Zhang De tentatively said, "Your Majesty, shall we... go back to the palace?"
Lu Yu turned around and left: "Go to Tianyin Pavilion."
Tianyin Pavilion is the highest place in the main hall of the imperial palace. It is located in the southeast corner of the imperial palace, and there are no other buildings around.
In the main hall of Tianyin Pavilion, Lou Qingyan stands in the shell of chime bells.
Under his feet is an entire formation painted with the juice of the thunder vine.Overhead, is the bright moonlight sprinkled from the skylight.
The moonlight was like water, submerging him.
He put his hands together, closed his eyes and stood quietly in the center of the formation.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and turned his head quickly.
"Who?"
"It's me." Lu Yu came in, "The time has come, so there's no need to read it. It's better for Mr. Lou to go back to the palace first. I will give you a credit for what happened today."
Lou Qingyan turned around, saluted, and said with a smile: "I dare not be a guilty minister."
"Don't call yourself like that, you are not even a minister." Lu Yu said.
He seemed to have remembered something, turned his head and ordered the servants to leave.
Lu Yu turned his head and continued, "Lou Qingyan died on the way down Xuanyuan Mountain in name."
Lou Qingyan's expression didn't change, he still smiled modestly: "May I ask, what should Qingyan call himself? Caomin..."
He raised his head, without any discomfort on his face: "Still 'slave'?"
"Lou Qingyan, what medicine are you selling in your gourd!"
As soon as this remark came out, Tianyin Pavilion fell into a long silence.
Lou Qingyan put away the humble and flattering smile on his face.
Lu Yu's face, which had been tense for a whole day, finally cracked, and his inner emotions flowed out bit by bit.
Obviously before, he fully exposed himself in front of Lou Qingyan, and Lou Qingyan hoped that he could restrain himself and keep a certain distance; at this time, the little bit of emotion revealed made Lou Qingyan cherish it.
With bare feet, Lou Qingyan stepped on the sap of the thunder vine step by step, walked in front of Lu Yu, and knelt: "I just want to tell your majesty that I have no dissent. I only wish your majesty to be well and the world is peaceful."
"You say this at this time, do you think I will believe it?"
Lou Qingyan laughed self-deprecatingly: "I know, Your Majesty won't believe it. I just want peace of mind."
Lu Yu snorted coldly.Suddenly, his eyes froze.
He pulled Lou Qingyan over and made him sit on the low platform at the entrance.
"Why are you barefoot?"
"Shoes are not allowed during the sacrifice. I have been barefoot since daytime." Lou Qingyan shrugged nonchalantly.
"I...have the imperial doctor see you. You are indeed seriously ill." Lu Yu spoke eagerly at first, but later, his speech became slower and slower, "December, you just run around like this. You are not afraid of getting sicker." , died!"
After he finished speaking, Lou Qingyan didn't answer.
His black eyes were very bright in the moonlight.His face, which looked seductive and evil, looked a little pure and innocent at this moment.
In the silence of the air, Lu Yu cleared his throat.
He got up suddenly, as if regretting how much he talked.
This is their relationship now.He shouldn't be so concerned.
Why is he concerned about this bad-mouthed person?
Maybe it's just waiting for him to enter the set now!
Thinking about it, Lu Yu turned around slowly, not looking at Lou Qingyan, and took two steps back.
Lou Qingyan saw him backing away, jumped off the low platform nonchalantly, and landed on the cold ground.
"you!"
As soon as Lu Yu noticed that he was stepping on the ground with bare feet again, he felt annoyed.
The impulsiveness after the emotions come up masks all kinds of complicated thoughts and considerations.
The reserve on his face was swept away, he turned around angrily, and lifted Lou Qingyan to the platform to sit down.
Perhaps it was because Tianyin Pavilion was so well ventilated that Lu Yin felt the coldness of December, so that Lou Qingyan's exposed feet were very unpleasant to the eye.
He looked left and right, sighed, and took off the thick sable fur over his formal suit.
Lou Qingyan: "?"
"Don't move." Lu Yu bent down, picked up his feet, and wrapped them in mink fur.
Lou Qingyan's eyes kept falling on his face. Lu Yu wanted to save his aura, but he was not confident enough.
Lou Qingyan can now feel the feelings of those heroines in film and television dramas.
When viewers watch TV, they always feel that "listen to my explanation" is silly. If you have something to say directly, what are these words that are trying to cover up?
However, it was only when I got to myself that I couldn't organize words to explain the complicated situation at this moment.
But Lu Yu is not like those protagonists in film and television dramas.
He approached step by step in the heavy rain, his eyes fixed on Lou Qingyan.
The voice was soft but somewhat cool.
"Then you explain."
Lou Qingyan was about to speak, but stopped.
How can he explain?
Saying that he is not from this world?Said that his mission must usurp the throne?Say he can know the future?
"I……"
His mouth was wide open, his eyes were wide open, and he forgot to blink.
The rainwater flowed into the eye sockets, which hurt a little.
Lu Yu walked up to him, tilted his head to look at him, the hair on his forehead fell down.
"Look at you, it's been too hard to hide."
Lu Yu put his hand on the side of his face, soft and harmless.
He wiped the rouge on Lou Qingyan's face, as if he was stroking an intimate lover.
But Lou Qingyan knew that Lu Yu at this moment was terrifying, much scarier than what he showed.
"Lu Yu, wait a minute."
"Wait, what are you waiting for?" Lu Yu narrowed his eyes and couldn't see his emotions clearly, "Look, it's been a long time since you wanted to call me Lu Yu like this, right? Has it been pushed up for a long time?"
"I……"
The next moment, the hand on the side of his face suddenly lifted his collar.
Lou Qingyan had a ferocious expression: "What do you want to do?"
Lu Yu suddenly grinned: "Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
He lifted him in front of him, and the tips of their noses touched slightly.
"I just want you to experience how uncomfortable I am after being betrayed." Lu Yu's voice was very gentle, but his words were like a devil, "Look, it's like this."
Lou Qingyan blushed, feeling a little bit of air loss.
Lu Yu let go of him, and with a shake, he fell to the wet ground.
Lou Qingyan lay on the ground, gasping for breath, because he was breathing so fast that he even choked the rainwater into his mouth.
Lu Yu slowly squatted down: "How long have you been following me secretly by pretending to be sick? You want to give the Sky Eagle Talisman to King Yan. You really love my brother."
"The Eagle Talisman is not for the King of Yan." Lou Qingyan stood up and looked at him, "I am not in alliance with the King of Yan."
"Brother, brother, it's already this time, are you still not telling me the truth?" Lu Yu's smile disappeared, "Then tell me, what's the use of you holding the Sky Eagle Talisman? You are not from the royal family, even if that one The troops only obey orders from the Sky Eagle Talisman, but without news from the royal family, you can't get in touch with that army at all."
I just can't let you get the Eagle Talisman, and I can't let the plot in the original book repeat itself.
The words were stuck in Lou Qingyan's throat, but she couldn't utter them at all.
"Ahem." He coughed violently.
Lu Yu stood up, his eyes were cold: "Are you still pretending? No wonder the second uncle can't see the lesions, it's just your disguise."
Lou Qingyan's eyes turned red all of a sudden: "Lu Yu, you...cough, speak well. I didn't pretend."
"Brother, tell me, what should I believe in your words?"
Lu Yu picked up Lou Qingyan and brought him up in front of his eyes: "After you entertained all the officials from the palace, you became very strange. I thought you had changed back to your original appearance, but things seemed to be more serious. It's complicated. How many things are you hiding from me?"
Lou Qingyan narrowed her eyes in pain.
Lu Yu suddenly reached out to snatch the Eagle Talisman from his arms.
"no!"
Lou Qingyan's first reaction was to reach out to stop Lu Yu.
Lu Yu didn't expect Lou Qingyan's reaction to be so big, he was taken aback for a moment, and his face became even more gloomy after he recovered.
"Your friendship with King Yan is really deep."
"I do not have it!"
Lou Qingyan wanted to argue feebly at first, but suddenly his expression changed and he curled up.
The Skyhawk Talisman that the two fought over was already boiling hot.
And Lou Qingyan covered the back of her neck with one hand, with a painful expression on her face.
Lu Yu's pupils constricted.
It was very dark in the backyard, the dark clouds covered the moonlight, only the faintly glowing cauldron could illuminate everything around.
Under the dim light, Lou Qingyan's expression was ferocious. The strange black lines on the back of his neck were the source, spreading out like a swarm of ants, forming strange lines, gradually occupying his neck, face, and torso...
Such a scene also appeared by the river last time.
Lu Yu let go of him, and took a step back in a daze.
The air flow around them gradually accelerated, as if being sucked in by Lou Qingyan.
Lou Qingyan's expression relaxed, as if he couldn't feel the pain, he was numb and lifeless.
Between his open palms, air circulated, gradually forming the shape of a long knife.
Lu Yu instantly connected many things.
"It was the Sky Eagle Talisman that activated this demon sword..."
The air flow gradually calmed down, Lou Qingyan was like a puppet who had lost his soul, holding a knife, his eyes couldn't focus.
The heavy rain is still falling, and the humid water vapor in the air seems to be suffocating.
Lu Yu knew that when Lou Qingyan became like this, he would lose his mind and everything would be out of control.
But he didn't move, and he didn't even withdraw the momentum that was revealed.
Losing his mind, Lou Qingyan slashed at him with a knife.
Lu Yu dodged sideways, then took a step up, approaching Lou Qingyan directly.
He grabbed Lou Qingyan's shoulder and pushed him onto the huge bronze cauldron; "Come on, kill me."
Lou Qingyan opened his mouth angrily like an enraged beast, wanting to charge up again.
Lu Yu pressed forward step by step, and continued to push him against the huge bronze tripod.Lou Qingyan's strength was too great, and he hit Lu Yu's chest with an elbow, and blood dripped from the corner of Lu Yu's mouth.
However, even so, Lu Yu still had red eyes and pressed him firmly against the bronze tripod. Even though Lou Qingyan's strength nearly shattered his whole body, he didn't seem to feel the slightest threat.
Lu Yu pressed Lou Qingyan desperately, and moved his head closer: "I resign myself to fate, you have no feelings for me at all. But even so, so what, I won't let go, even if I die, I won't let go. "
Lou Qingyan couldn't hear what he was saying, and still roared and resisted like a beast.
Lu Yu couldn't stop the violent Lou Qingyan, finally, after a long confrontation, Lou Qingyan pushed Lu Yu to the ground.
When Lu Yu fell down, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the next second, Lou Qingyan roared and pressed on him, raised the knife with both hands, and swung it.
Lu Yu's facial features twisted together, and he raised his hand to hold the blade. The scar on the inside of his palm was horrific, and the blood was rushing down slowly along his wrist, dyeing his arms bright red.
"You want me to die so much." Lu Yu grinned, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth to his collarbone, "When you wake up, you will be very happy to see me dead."
"But I can't die."
"No matter what, I can't watch you become someone else's person." His eyes were fierce and his hands were trembling.
The blade seemed to be really shaken, moving up inch by inch.
In the darkness, Lou Qingyan's eyes were slightly different from the last runaway.
The unfocused pupils moved slightly, as if they were trying to find a target to focus on.
whoosh-
A piercing sound suddenly sounded.Before Lu Yu realized the surrounding situation, Lou Qingyan was thrown away.
He became even angrier, and stood up to continue swinging the knife.
Only then did Lu Yu see clearly that the visitors were two people in identical purple outfits.
The two were wearing ankle-length Taoist uniforms, black hats, and black veils on their faces.
Taoist priest?
When Lou Qingyan was about to get up to fight back, the two of them formed seals suddenly and recited scriptures.
This scene is extremely funny.Lou Qingyan's knife was getting closer and closer to them, but they only focused on chanting sutras, calm and composed.
The blade was only an inch away from the face of one of them!
Just as the scriptures for the two of them were finished reading, the talisman on their hands turned——Lou Qingyan remained motionless as if he had been immobilized.
Only then did the two spit out a mouthful of blood, and their bodies collapsed.
Lu Yu stood up with difficulty: "You are..."
The two turned their heads slightly, but without stopping, they flew away and disappeared.
No wonder the surrounding guards didn't move.Was it done by these two people?
who are they?This uniform... where does it belong?
Why were they able to stop Lou Qingyan?
Lou Qingyan went to a blank place after losing control of her body this time.
But this time the system didn't move.
He was thinking of finding the reporting channel from the auxiliary panel to report this negligent system.
A person wanders in a blank spiritual world, and various thoughts can circle in his mind.
Lu Yu realized that he was lying to him, but mistakenly thought that he had voted for King Yan's camp.
How can I turn myself over?
And more importantly, what might happen next to bring all three armies together?
Lou Qingyan calculated various situations in his head, but in the end he could only sigh and sit powerlessly in the white world.
Fighting against the sky is really a lot of fun.
Until he returned to his body, he couldn't calculate anything.
With an apprehensive and fearful heart, I can only open my eyes and face the world after my overturned car.
His eyelids moved slowly, and his pupils, which had been in the dark for a long time, were slowly stimulated by the light.
The first thing that catches the eye is a red light group...
red?
Lou Qingyan had a bad feeling.
Before he could see his surroundings clearly, he smelled a little sandalwood on the tip of his nose.
That was Lu Yu's favorite incense, it was his taste.
The eyes gradually adjusted to the surrounding light.
Above the head is a bright red gauze.
not right...
What unfolds?
In the first ending that the system showed him, the two of them were surrounded by bright red gauze curtains and curtains.
No, I guessed it the other way around, right?Is it not the first ending?
He was about to stand up with a carp.
In the next second, he gasped.
This time, they didn't use the chain array against him, but his limbs were still fixed to the bed.
What fastened him was a gold chain, very thin, like a necklace, but evidently made in a special way.Lou Qingyan even felt that these chains restricted his true energy more than the previous iron chain array.
But what made him panic was not the ability of these chains to seal Qi, but...
Why did they make the chain like this?
All his clothes had been removed except for a clean shirt.
He was placed in a warm and comfortable room with soft bedding, and the high-quality charcoal fire in the room was continuously delivering heat.
However, all the fabrics in this room are bright red, and the lighting is dim, and the secret spices are burning in the exquisite hollow incense burner, exuding a delicate fragrance.
Coupled with the slender but delicate appearance of this chain, it is hard not to think of those unspeakable hobbies in the deep palaces of the emperors of all dynasties.
Lou Qingyan's brain roared early: 【How could this happen!Doesn't it mean to develop according to "no interception"? ! 】
The system quietly said: [Yeah, you didn't capture it. 】
Lou Qingyan: [The words that were not intercepted, wouldn't the result be a confrontation between the three armies?How could it be the same as the first ending? 】
The system smiled ambiguously: [Isn't this the same as your original plan?Didn't you already intend to bow down to him for your life? 】
Lou Qingyan: [Can the situation be the same now?Lu Yu was a modest gentleman before, but now I've overturned, he's turned black!How dare I continue with the first ending? 】
Maybe the first ending...he couldn't save his life either.
The system appeases the furious him at the right time: [You carefully compare the picture of the first ending with this one, the layout of the room is different. 】
Only then did Lou Qingyan feel relieved, called up the auxiliary panel, and carefully compared the picture of the first ending with the surrounding layout.
After the comparison, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, although they look similar, they are not the same.
It shows that Lu Yu may not necessarily attack him like in the first ending.
However, the system of killing thousands of swords added: [Although it is not the first ending, but...Lu Yu might have the same idea, hehe, look at this room, it looks like it is in the palace, but a servant Nothing... so secretive, hee hee. 】
Lou Qingyan: [I want to complain to you. 】
System: [Kiss, we don't have a complaint channel.By the way, don't block me, it's useless.Because I'm going to cut off contact with you, I don't want the live broadcast room to be blocked for the second time because of the color, okay~]
It went offline before Lou Qingyan was furious.
Lou Qingyan half leaned on the bed, her breathing gradually accelerated.
As soon as he moved, his skin would touch the cold chains.
This touch gave him a very bad feeling.
I don't know what kind of material these chains are made of. Even though they are covered in the quilt, they cannot be warmed, and they have always been so cold.
This made Lou Qingyan try his best to avoid moving, so as not to touch the cold again in the warmth.
After a long time, no one came.
He was finally bored, he stood up and looked at the room in his spare time.
This room is extremely large, and the furniture and tents are all standard in the palace.
In the deepest part of the room is a big bed, with several layers of gauze curtains with different patterns and patterns scattered on the top of the bed.Candlelight on the walls on both sides just illuminated the bed.
The gauze curtains were tied up, and the person on the bed was in the center of the candlelight.
Lou Qingyan waited for a long time, and finally decided to get out of bed and take a walk.However, as soon as his feet touched the cold ground, he retracted.
His body was shaking.
Lou Qingyan frowned.Is my body really so weak?Is it because of the rain, or the sequelae after being taken over by Fushiya?
Suddenly, he heard a voice.
The servants guarding the door began to move around, someone was about to come in.
Lou Qingyan's whole body tensed up, and she quickly collapsed, pretending to be unconscious.
One person's footsteps got closer and closer, and finally stopped in front of Lou Qingyan's bed.
Lou Qingyan turned her back to him, her eyelashes fluttered slightly because of anxiety.
"Stop pretending. Isn't faking a coma enough these days?"
Lou Qingyan stood up in embarrassment, and slowly turned around.
Lu Yu was wearing a dragon robe, with the most formal shape from head to toe.
His face was expressionless and his words were without emotion.
Lu Yu, who was softly called senior brother before, disappeared.
But Lou Qingyan let out a sigh of relief.
He was even more afraid that the distance between Lu Yu and himself was too close, and Lu Yu with such a sense of distance made him feel safer.
Lou Qingyan wanted to say something, but he didn't know what words could start a normal conversation for them in such an embarrassing situation.
Silence spread in Dahong's room.
Lu Yu was startled suddenly, as if he remembered something, walked over and lifted his chin.
Lou Qingyan's eyes widened.
What does he want to do?Just now he looked like a gentleman, so how can he change?
Lu Yu lifted the black hair on his shoulders, exposing his neck.
"The pattern hasn't faded..." Lu Yu's eyes changed suddenly, "Have you recovered your sanity yet?"
Lou Qingyan suddenly remembered.
In order to cover up his actions in the prison, he once lied to him that when the patterns on his body were not faded, although he could speak, his mind was still controlled by the demon knife.
And when under the control of the demon knife, it will become the same as in the sky prison.
Lou Qingyan's face turned red instantly.
If he knew at that time that he would run away and be tied up for the second time, he would not have lied like that.
But the only way to complete a lie is to use the second lie, which is really pretending to be insane.
Otherwise, what happened in the dungeon was done by him in a sane way... Lu Yu, he would take it seriously.
The blackened Lu Yu took what happened in the dungeon seriously.
The consequences could be disastrous.
After Lu Yu's words came out, Lou Qingyan's plans were repeated one after another.He didn't know that when he thought about these things, his cheeks became more and more red.
Lu Yu dragged his chin, watching his expression slowly change.
"It's better to be a brother like this. He won't hide his thoughts, he can only follow me."
Lou Qingyan was startled behind her back, but she didn't dare to reveal her timidity.
Pretend to be insane, just like in the dungeon...
Lu Yu's voice was low, and his laughter echoed in the empty room: "Brother, look at how you look now."
As he spoke, he held Lou Qingyan's chin and forced him to turn his head.
There is a mirror there.
Lou Qingyan in the mirror is coquettishly beautiful.
His appearance is really good, even if he is seriously ill and pale, he can only add a little weakness to his face, the blush flying on his cheeks and pale lips coexist on the same face, without any sense of abruptness.
The black pattern on his neck hadn't faded completely, and it faintly spread to the jaw line, adding a bit of threat to him, like flowers in the deep forest, warning the enemy with symbols.
But at this moment, he was so fragile that he could break if he was pinched.Such warnings and threats add to their own temptation for nothing.
Lou Qingyan swallowed involuntarily, and her Adam's apple moved slightly.
Lu Yu noticed his movement, and slowly stroked his Adam's apple with his hand against his chin.
Lou Qingyan immediately stopped moving.
He tried his best to control his breathing, not to show himself too flustered, and to expose the lies of his insanity.
"Brother, have you been like this all along?"
Lu Yu's voice softened.
But it felt different from what he had said before.
If it is said that he was relying on his senior from the bottom of his heart before, now he seems to be trying to reduce his sense of threat so as to lower the vigilance of the prey, and then prepare to kill the target.
Lou Qingyan raised her eyes and met his eyes, pretending not to understand.
"Haven't I always been like this?"
Lu Yu smiled.
Alarm bells rang in Lou Qingyan's heart.
No way... Lu Yu, he...
Unexpectedly, Lu Yu just pinched his face, and then withdrew his hand.
Only then did Lou Qingyan notice that his hands were completely covered by bandages.
He didn't know what he did to Lu Yu when he lost control, so he looked at Lu Yu carefully at this time.
Lu Yu's hands were wrapped in bandages.On the neckline of the well-dressed dragon robe, a little bandage was exposed because of his movements.
Shocked by Lu Yu's injury, Lou Qingyan couldn't help but relax, revealing the shock in his heart.
Before he turned around, Lu Yu leaned forward and tasted his lips.
Lou Qingyan was not surprised this time.He was a workaholic before wearing books, and his love life was extremely poor.
This seemed to be the pair of lips he was most familiar with.
However, Lu Yu was not limited to this kiss.
He moved away gradually, and began to kiss Lou Qingyan's chin, biting lightly while kissing.
He gradually passed the chin, jaw, to the Adam's apple.
Lou Qingyan finally couldn't hold back anymore, and couldn't help but want to push him away.
"Don't move. Don't force me." Lu Yu's voice was terribly deep.
Lou Qingyan's back stiffened, and his whole body froze.
Finally, Lu Yu stopped.
When he raised his head, Lou Qingyan was a little shocked.
Lu Yu's eyes were red.
It's not a ruthless red, it's more like... hiding a sadness that is about to burst from his chest.
Lu Yu pushed him away nonchalantly with his bandage-bound hands, raised the corners of his mouth, and said nonchalantly, "You're wounded, otherwise you're not so lucky. But it's okay to quench your thirst."
Turn around and leave.
The indifference in his tone was like a needle, piercing Lou Qingyan's heart.
Lou Qingyan grabbed Lu Yu's loose sleeve robe subconsciously.
Lu Yu's back froze.He turned his face to the side very slowly, and looked at him coldly from the corner of his eye.
Lou Qingyan's face turned redder than before.
Anyway, no matter what he does now, Lu Yu will feel that it is because the knife interferes with his sanity.
Lou Qingyan made up her mind, got off the bed and entangled Lu Yu.
His hands lightly brushed the corners of Lu Yu's red eyes.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
He closed his eyes and kissed Lu Yu drunkenly.
Lu Yu didn't move, and let him kiss, his eyes didn't move, not even surprised.
In the room, there was only the crisp sound of the chains on Lou Qingyan's body colliding with each other.
The dragon robe on Lu Yu's body was not messy, and his back was straight.
It wasn't until Lou Qingyan was almost out of breath from the kiss that he stretched out his hand, wrapped his arms around Lou Qingyan's back, and patted him lightly on the back.
However, she resolutely pushed him away and strode out of the room.
Lou Qingyan was the only one left in the empty room.
The room returned to the loneliness before, and the candlelight flickered, rippling the red light and shade in the room.
After the system went online, he told Lou Qingyan a lot of things after he lost control.
Lou Qingyan knew about those two men in purple, and also knew how crazy Lu Yu was at that time, and how deeply he hurt him.
The system also told Lou Qingyan that after the man in purple's spell took effect, his knife returned to the symbol on the back of his neck, and the Sky Eagle Talisman, together with the knife, also lodged in his body.
The system sighed: [That's good, you have a gold medal for avoiding death.Although I don't know how to take out the Skyhawk Talisman, but now you can be equivalent to the Skyhawk Talisman, and they won't touch you. 】
Lou Qingyan fell into silence after hearing this.
【He raised me in the palace like this because of the Eagle Talisman? 】
The system scratched his head: [Don't think too much, he is also a knife-mouthed tofu-hearted.After all, it's normal for the little wolf dog to be ruthless after being hurt by you. 】
[His indifference is a bit scary. 】
The system hates iron but not steel: 【Don't be so listless!You clearly have a good hand now!Think about what your own mission is?It is usurper!You are now equivalent to a walking Skyhawk Talisman, with your own golden body. If you contact the secret magic army, you may even turn the tables! 】
Lou Qingyan: [Yes...]
System: [Are you so in love with brains? 】
Lou Qingyan coughed: [You're right, it's better to focus on the task.He's just a character anyway. 】
System: [That's right!Something is going to happen recently, so you prepare early. 】
Only then did Lou Qingyan remember that Lu Yu's birthday is coming soon according to the time calculation.
Next, there will be two major events connected together, one is Lu Yu's birthday party, and the third day after Lu Yu's birthday party is the No. 11 sacrificial ceremony that was originally scheduled.
Although the Sky Eagle Talisman has already appeared, this matter is top secret.In order to hide that he has found the Sky Eagle Talisman and deal a fatal blow to others, Lu Yu will definitely let the public sacrifice proceed as scheduled.
System: [Lu Yu's birthday party is tomorrow. 】
Lou Qingyan: [But he won't let me out. 】
System: [This is not necessarily the case.According to the etiquette system, on the morning of the emperor's birthday, the astrologer needs to perform a grand divination to pray for the emperor. 】
Lou Qingyan smiled wryly: [I am already like this, they have already changed the astrologer. 】
[But I think Lu Yu will want you to go. 】
Lou Qingyan fell into silence.
the next morning.
Lou Qingyan sat in the room.A long golden chain came out from the depths of the room and dragged on the ground.
[Why is there no news yet. 】
Lou Qingyan waited for a long time.
The windows in the room were shaded by thick curtains.Only the little light coming through the door paper can be used to judge the time.
The light outside the window became brighter and brighter, Lou Qingyan slowly walked towards the door.
The chain was just the right length, and when he was within an arm's length of the door, it tightened.
Lou Qingyan stood where he was, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open.
The guards and palace servants on duty outside the door were immediately alert: "What's the matter?"
Lou Qingyan's eyelashes drooped, hiding all emotions: "I am an astrologer, and I need to pray for the emperor today."
Guard: "The emperor has appointed a new astrologer, which has nothing to do with you."
"Then you go and inform the emperor." Lou Qingyan raised his eyes, his eyes were deep, "Lou Qingyan wants to pray for him."
The guard hesitated for a moment.According to the order, he didn't actually need to communicate.
But that look made him flustered.
He hesitated and left: "This, the emperor will not agree."
"You pass it on." Lou Qingyan laughed wantonly.
The first part of the emperor's birthday banquet is to offer sacrifices and pray for blessings.
All the officials wore court clothes, lined up solemnly, and completed a series of sacrificial activities in accordance with etiquette.
Finally, came the part of praying.
However, the astrologer who presided over the sacrifice just now disappeared.
The officials were silent, but their eyes were wandering, as if they wanted to get some confusion from others.
The emperor sat on the throne with a serious and serious face.
He knew what was going to happen, but his expression didn't change the slightest.
In the silence, a pair of imperial guards came up the stairs.
The courtiers were even more suspicious.
Finally, a man dressed in the court uniform of an astrologer came up surrounded by the imperial guards.
"Who is he?"
"Why are there two astrologers?"
"Why did the forbidden army come up?"
In the past, the shaman always wore a mask, but few people saw Lou Qingyan's real face.
But Li Wen, Lu Jin and others who had seen Lou Qingyan's real face became extremely frightened.
Lou Qingyan's face was still sick, but his expression was very relaxed, and his pair of red phoenix eyes narrowed slightly against the sunlight.
He bowed.
Lu Yu was expressionless.
Lou Qingyan walked onto the stage slowly, and picked up the blessing bell from the shelf on one side.
clang--
The ribbon on the bell swayed in the air.
clang - clang -
The bell was facing the sun, and it made a crisp sound.
clang - clang - clang -
A pair of slender, pale hands held the bell and closed their hands together.The bell swayed constantly between the slender fingers.
Lou Qingyan finally turned around, facing Lu Yu.
He stood upright, without the slouching that a patient should have.
The sun shone on his side face, illuminating the smile on this face with boundless warmth.
Lou Qingyan raised his eyes, his eyes passed through the officials in the square in front of the hall, and fell on Lu Yu's cold and serious face.
He smiled brightly and innocently, as if he was not affected by the indifference on Lu Yu's face.
The courtier bowed heavily.
There are no clouds in the sky.The air was scorched to smell like summer, which formed a weird contrast with the snow on the eaves of the main hall.
Time was slowed down.
There were hundreds or thousands of people in the square in front of Mingming Hall, but only Lu Yu sat facing south, and Lou Qingyan stood facing north.
Their eyes collided where no one could see.
Slowly, Lou Qingyan raised the bell above his head, maintained this posture and slowly knelt down, like all courtiers.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live—"
In the square in front of the hall, everyone said in unison.
Lu Yu stared at the figure in the astrological suit, watched him slowly kneel down, watched him slowly lower his head, and watched him say the same words as the courtiers.
"Pray for blessings—" the imperial eunuch hung his voice.
The courtier just got up.
But before anyone could stand still, Lu Yu suddenly walked away.
Everyone below was a little flustered.
"Your Majesty, this is..."
On the altar, Lou Qingyan stood up, lowered her eyes, and stood docilely without any movement.
The imperial eunuch is such a fine person, he only panicked for a moment, and immediately understood.
"The banquet begins, and all the officials are seated—"
The courtiers entered the hall under the organization.
The emperor's birthday, the world came to congratulate.
The banquet went well.
Lu Yu laughed when he should laugh, and was serious when he should be serious.
As the atmosphere grew stronger, the joy on his face became more and more intense.
But none of them could see that the ancient well in his eyes was calm from beginning to end.
Time passed, and everything went smoothly according to the process.
Lu Xian left the scene and walked towards the bedroom surrounded by the palace people.
It was much cooler after nightfall, and the moment he went out, the cold wind blew away the alcohol smell on his face.
The eunuch hurriedly moved closer, bringing the guard of honor closer together to shield Lu Yu from the wind and cold.
Lu Yu stopped suddenly: "Zhang De."
The eunuch: "The old slave is here."
Lu Yu said, "Go to He Yi Tang."
The chief eunuch Zhang De was a little hesitant: "Your Majesty wants...to see that one?"
"Otherwise." A little impatience crossed Lu Yu's face.
Zhang De patted his leg: "Look at this old servant's memory, I forgot to remind His Majesty. Mr. Lou is still in Tianyin Pavilion."
"What is he doing in Tianyin Pavilion?"
Zhang De: "Your Majesty, after praying for blessings on your birthday, the astrologer will go to Tianyin Pavilion to give lectures and chant scriptures for the royal family until late at night."
"Look at my memory," Lu Yu let out a long breath, "No, why did he go? Where's the new astrologer?"
"Mr. Lou said that he was the one who prayed for you during the day, and he should be the one to complete the rest of the work. The imperial guards are waiting around the Tianyin Pavilion, and nothing will happen."
Lu Yu was silent for a while.
Zhang De tentatively said, "Your Majesty, shall we... go back to the palace?"
Lu Yu turned around and left: "Go to Tianyin Pavilion."
Tianyin Pavilion is the highest place in the main hall of the imperial palace. It is located in the southeast corner of the imperial palace, and there are no other buildings around.
In the main hall of Tianyin Pavilion, Lou Qingyan stands in the shell of chime bells.
Under his feet is an entire formation painted with the juice of the thunder vine.Overhead, is the bright moonlight sprinkled from the skylight.
The moonlight was like water, submerging him.
He put his hands together, closed his eyes and stood quietly in the center of the formation.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and turned his head quickly.
"Who?"
"It's me." Lu Yu came in, "The time has come, so there's no need to read it. It's better for Mr. Lou to go back to the palace first. I will give you a credit for what happened today."
Lou Qingyan turned around, saluted, and said with a smile: "I dare not be a guilty minister."
"Don't call yourself like that, you are not even a minister." Lu Yu said.
He seemed to have remembered something, turned his head and ordered the servants to leave.
Lu Yu turned his head and continued, "Lou Qingyan died on the way down Xuanyuan Mountain in name."
Lou Qingyan's expression didn't change, he still smiled modestly: "May I ask, what should Qingyan call himself? Caomin..."
He raised his head, without any discomfort on his face: "Still 'slave'?"
"Lou Qingyan, what medicine are you selling in your gourd!"
As soon as this remark came out, Tianyin Pavilion fell into a long silence.
Lou Qingyan put away the humble and flattering smile on his face.
Lu Yu's face, which had been tense for a whole day, finally cracked, and his inner emotions flowed out bit by bit.
Obviously before, he fully exposed himself in front of Lou Qingyan, and Lou Qingyan hoped that he could restrain himself and keep a certain distance; at this time, the little bit of emotion revealed made Lou Qingyan cherish it.
With bare feet, Lou Qingyan stepped on the sap of the thunder vine step by step, walked in front of Lu Yu, and knelt: "I just want to tell your majesty that I have no dissent. I only wish your majesty to be well and the world is peaceful."
"You say this at this time, do you think I will believe it?"
Lou Qingyan laughed self-deprecatingly: "I know, Your Majesty won't believe it. I just want peace of mind."
Lu Yu snorted coldly.Suddenly, his eyes froze.
He pulled Lou Qingyan over and made him sit on the low platform at the entrance.
"Why are you barefoot?"
"Shoes are not allowed during the sacrifice. I have been barefoot since daytime." Lou Qingyan shrugged nonchalantly.
"I...have the imperial doctor see you. You are indeed seriously ill." Lu Yu spoke eagerly at first, but later, his speech became slower and slower, "December, you just run around like this. You are not afraid of getting sicker." , died!"
After he finished speaking, Lou Qingyan didn't answer.
His black eyes were very bright in the moonlight.His face, which looked seductive and evil, looked a little pure and innocent at this moment.
In the silence of the air, Lu Yu cleared his throat.
He got up suddenly, as if regretting how much he talked.
This is their relationship now.He shouldn't be so concerned.
Why is he concerned about this bad-mouthed person?
Maybe it's just waiting for him to enter the set now!
Thinking about it, Lu Yu turned around slowly, not looking at Lou Qingyan, and took two steps back.
Lou Qingyan saw him backing away, jumped off the low platform nonchalantly, and landed on the cold ground.
"you!"
As soon as Lu Yu noticed that he was stepping on the ground with bare feet again, he felt annoyed.
The impulsiveness after the emotions come up masks all kinds of complicated thoughts and considerations.
The reserve on his face was swept away, he turned around angrily, and lifted Lou Qingyan to the platform to sit down.
Perhaps it was because Tianyin Pavilion was so well ventilated that Lu Yin felt the coldness of December, so that Lou Qingyan's exposed feet were very unpleasant to the eye.
He looked left and right, sighed, and took off the thick sable fur over his formal suit.
Lou Qingyan: "?"
"Don't move." Lu Yu bent down, picked up his feet, and wrapped them in mink fur.
Lou Qingyan's eyes kept falling on his face. Lu Yu wanted to save his aura, but he was not confident enough.
