"Have you heard? There is a drought in Hattusha!"

"Isn't it? Several springs are showing signs of drying up. It's scary!"

"I heard that the elders have started asking the Queen Mother to pray for rain!"

"What? Has it reached such a serious point?!"

"Nonsense! Didn't you see that my younger brother who just came back from Hattusha said that now, the whole Hattusha is like a desert!"

It was unexpected.

Xi Shui did not expect that in this small hotel where he was supposed to meet a certain villain by chance, such an explosive news would come before the person who was supposed to appear.

"Your Majesty, shouldn't praying for rain be done by priests?" Why did you make a "request" to the queen mother? What's even more strange is that everyone seems to agree that as long as you make this "request" to the queen mother, it means that the situation is extremely serious. seriousness.

Glancing at Xishui, Kailu lowered his eyelids: "Generally speaking, this is true. But... there are exceptions."

Turning the table, so what kind of exception is it? It's such an evil quality to make people appetizing, Your Majesty!

"Because... this will have a very bad impact on the personal health of Her Majesty the Queen Mother, right, Your Majesty Kailu?"

"Drink!" The evil spirit...appeared!

Grabbing Xi Shui's right cheek, Ulussi smiled like a man who captivated all living beings without any shortage of weight: "Long time no see, 'little' Dite!"

"Pa" swept away someone's thin white but very strong five fingers, watching the other person rubbing the back of the red hand without any trace in satisfaction, Xi Shui's smile was even more innocent and sunny: "It's been a long time No way, my lord eunuch!"

Hearing this, Ulussi raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't continue to dwell on such a stupid question about the real relationship between the priest and the eunuch, which was obvious that Xishui would definitely fool him.

Ignoring the quarrel between the two, Kailu stretched out his hand and pulled Xishui back to his side: "You are right, I believe that Hattushas and even the people of Xitai will remember the great contribution made by the Queen Mother to Xitai! "

"Hehe, Your Highness is serious." Ulussi leaned forward on the table with one hand, and said with a half-smile: "His Royal Highness has always been broad-minded, and she is not a person who seeks fame, so this matter is just a matter of effort for her. Forget it, but..."

Speaking of this, Xi Shui finally realized it - that's it!Ulussi's remarks can be summed up in only four words: Give me the seal.

Since Xishui can think of it, it is even more impossible for Kailu to not realize it.I saw that he was still calm, and smiled calmly: "Don't you know that I don't like to be threatened by others?"

"Your Majesty has absolutely no such intentions. Please don't misunderstand me. I am here to report to Your Majesty with the sincerity of the Queen Mother praying for rain. How can I threaten Your Majesty!" Xi, the content he wants to convey has basically been informed to the other party, and the goal has been achieved, so naturally, he will not continue to pursue and demand Kailu to make an immediate decision.After saluting, Ulussi put on the cloak again with a smile: "Then... looking forward to the good news from His Majesty, I will take my leave."

Before anyone even stepped out of the gate, Xi Shui threw himself on Kailu's side and kept asking, "Your Majesty! Does the Queen Mother want us to hand over that thing before she is willing to pray for rain?"

Rubbing Xi Shui's head, Kailu smiled and said, "There is no other way."

"No!" Xi Shui was furious. I have worked so hard to deceive and save all kinds of things that I have carefully preserved. I will give it anyway. To sacrifice such an important physical evidence for such an unlikely matter! ?

After giving him such a yell, Kailu's smile became softer: "No matter what the cause of this matter is, once the Queen Mother really decides to pray for rain, then this thing must be returned to the Queen Mother—if she is willing to take the risk If we help people at the risk of our lives, we can’t be too stingy.”

"Life is in danger...?" Xi Shui was taken aback. He had guessed whether praying for rain would cause severe damage to the queen mother, which could be called human destruction, but that was just a fantasy. Knowing that reality is often bloodier than third-rate soap operas, the content at this moment is more straightforward-"But there are still many priests in the West Stage..." What danger can there be, so many fat and strong guys are still thriving and living , and there are natural disasters all year round.

Kailu stared at Xishui for a long time, until Xishui began to feel his scalp go numb, and finally said: "That's because, at most, ordinary priests only pray for blessings, and the queen mother...is casting spells. .Did you forget that the Queen Mother and I are both people with magical powers."

"Casting spells?" Is it possible to go to the sky and dive into the sea like Monkey King to grab the old dragon king's braid, or stick a charm and swing a sword like Niutou Laodao? ?Can't...it's too thunderous.

"The Queen Mother has the ability to control the water, which means that she is blessed by the water god, so the matter of praying for rain can only be done by her. But what I accept is the blessing from the wind god, and praying for rain is not something I can do— —Even if it can be done, the elders will not agree with me if I want to do such a dangerous thing.” After a pause, Kailu easily poured the drink for Xi Shui: “Praying for rain is quite important. Things that consume mana and mental energy, if you are not careful, you may be backlashed by the magic you cast—and I will not use this ability as a means of governing the country."

Frowning and looking at the wine glass in front of him, Xi Shui nodded: "It's what Concubine Xi Di said—human beings can't obey magic power, but should follow their own heart? The strength of the heart is indeed what a person can overcome in any adversity. An invincible magic weapon that can survive smoothly!" In other words, he can't adapt to these people's habit of substituting wine for water every now and then, Chinese people, do they really want to drink tea?

Kailu was startled: "Have you... seen the queen mother?"

Xi Shui's scalp twitched, but his expression was still sullen: "No, didn't His Majesty say that?"

Kailu raised his eyebrows: "Why don't I remember being such a snarky person."

Well, it's old paper that broke his mouth, Xi Shui turned his head bitterly to change the subject - "Your Majesty mentioned 'backlash' just now, so what's going on?"

"Going to the other opposite extreme of conforming to the heart - losing the heart of the self, being controlled by magic and becoming its slave." Kailu raised his eyebrows and glanced at a nervous person, Kailu took a sip of wine, thinking that there will be more in the future Time to discuss this matter: "So... Relatively speaking, the exchange of letters is not too expensive. What's more, the Queen Mother has been in power for a long time and is deeply rooted. I don't expect such a letter to be able to Shake her roots."

Wipe, it turns out that the real black heart cotton is here.

Nima has all kinds of hard-sounding looks on her face, under the banner of serving the people, is she co-authoring or planning to let the princess get involved?By the way, the princess is not so easy to get along with, right?Since she dared to propose such an open exchange condition, she must have prepared early in the morning to win the tiger's cub if she didn't enter the tiger's den. So, this time... the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road?

But... "What if the queen mother doesn't keep her promise?" He didn't think that Nakiya would be so stupid as to pray for rain before asking for clay or something, not to mention that a secret deal was not a formal promise.

"As the Queen Mother of the Empire, once you make a promise in front of your subjects, you cannot go back on it." Kailu stood up: "If she does not keep her promise, I am afraid that the consequences she will bear are no less than treason."

The author has something to say:

Two teeth were pulled out, and the next day, I almost fainted at home, so I had to be given needles for two days.I'm really made of plastic, flip the table.
