chronicle of court survival

But meeting Wen Jiao was something Xia Qing never expected - didn't this person want to get on the bed at the beginning, crying and yelling and refusing to leave the palace, begging Fu Changsheng to stay with him?Why did he change his attention now and get involved with the Xuanyun faction.

Xia Qing thought for a while, and felt that he could probably guess the reason.

Now that Lou Guanxue has left Lingguang and his whereabouts are unknown, Wen Jiao has no one to seduce, and his identity as a pure shark is exposed in the palace.

Wen Jiao obediently followed the leader upstairs, her pink clothes were pure and bright, her dark eyes were moist like a deer in the forest, everyone who saw him would be captured by this innocent look.

So did the leader, his heart trembled when he saw his tender eyes, and he said in a soft voice: "Tomorrow night, I will probably be able to arrive at the Emperor Liang's Mausoleum, young master, rest well tonight, and if you need anything, just tell me."

With shallow dimples, Wen Jiao said softly, "Well, thank you, sir. But sir, I just went to the tomb of Emperor Liang, why do you feel so nervous?"

The leader sighed: "Young Master, I don't know that Chunshang Cave is a place of evil spirits in ancient books. After it was designated as an imperial mausoleum by Emperor Liang's feng shui, many people died every time they were put into the coffin. I heard that poisonous insects and miasma were rampant inside. There are many crises." Speaking of this, he had to scold Emperor Liang for being stupid, setting up such a place as a mausoleum, it is normal for the country to perish.

Wen Jiao's eyelashes fluttered, and she asked innocently, "Is it really that scary?"

Leader: "Yes. But don't be afraid, young master, you will just hide behind us when the time comes."

Wen Jiao smiled and said, "Okay."

He was both arrogant and disdainful.

On the day when his mother set up the tomb when she was alive, she led him by the hand into the imperial mausoleum and witnessed the whole process, from the entrance of the tomb to the tomb, water and land, every step, every mechanism.

But Wen Jiao would not say that he is the Prince of Liang, this identity will only bring him humiliation now.

He wanted to pretend that he didn't understand anything, and then shine in front of Kou Xinghua.

When Wen Jiao walked into the innermost room, Xia Qing also looked away.

When meeting Wen Jiao for the first time, the first thing Xia Qing noticed was the red mole between his eyebrows, and it's the same now.

The position of the mole has not changed, but the color has become darker and the shape has become more obvious.

When I saw it in the bath for the first time, the mole between Wen Jiao’s eyebrows was just a thin invisible red dot, but now that it’s grown a bit longer, it doesn’t look like a mole anymore, it’s more like a brush stroke of cinnabar, decorating the brow, and it’s also like a mole. The bloody wound is charming and evil.

Hearing the conversation between Wen Jiao and the leader, Xia Qing suddenly reacted belatedly.

Wen Jiao's mother is Mrs. Hanyue... Wait, Wen Jiao's mother is Zhuji?

He was a little sleepy at first, but now he was refreshed, and suddenly turned around: "Damn, Lou Guanxue! I found something."

Lou Guanxue supported her stomach with one hand, and drew something on the paper with the other.Hearing his voice, there was a faint "hmm".

Xia Qing sat over: "I saw Wen Jiao just now!!"

Lou Guanxue's eyelashes fell like crow feathers: "And then?"

Xia Qing's eyes widened: "Then I just discovered that Wen Jiao is Zhuji's child."

After Lou Guanxue finished drawing, her sleeves were piled up like snow, revealing her beautiful wrist bones.

He had a half-smile and a casual tone: "Oh, then you found out a little late."

Xia Qing was shocked: "You already knew?"

Lou Guanxue: "Yes."

Xia Qing wilted: "...that's all right."

wrong!There is something else!

Xia Qing couldn't help it: "This is not right, how can a person like Zhuji be willing to give birth to humans?"

Yao Ke is the one who least wants to have anything to do with the mainland among the saints of the Yuzu tribe, and her rejection and hatred of humans has penetrated deep into her bones.

Zhu Ji, a lunatic who took pleasure in murdering a hundred years ago, would really be willing to stay in the harem of Liang Kingdom as a famous concubine?

Lou Guanxue raised her eyes, stared at his face, and asked casually, "Are you that interested in Wen Jiao? Or did you see Fu Changsheng next to Wen Jiao?"

WTF? ?

Xia Qing said: "I'm more interested in Zhuji."

Only then did Lou Guanxue lazily say: "You will know about her when you enter the imperial mausoleum."

Xia Qing was even more surprised: "The Imperial Tomb? Wasn't she buried alive three years ago? Did her soul float into the Imperial Tomb? Is Zhuji still alive?"

Lou Guanxue took a serious look at him and asked, "Do you really think I know everything?"

Xia Qing was stunned when he heard this. For some reason, he suddenly laughed.

"Yeah, I really think you know everything."

The more he thought about it, the more he found it funny. Although he didn't know what he was laughing at, it was quite amusing when Lou Guanxue seriously asked this sentence.The corners of his lips curled up, and his light brown eyes smiled purely and movingly. After thinking for a while, he said, "I don't understand why, anyway, I always think that you know everything, and you are omnipotent."

Lou Guanxue was a little stunned, lowered her eyes, her eyelashes were covered with shadows to cover her deep emotions, as if there was a fire burning in her heart that had already rotted flesh and blood.

He also smiled very lightly.

"is it?"

"Yes!"

Lou Guanxue thought calmly.

In fact, Xia Qing's emotions were very obvious in front of him.

Depressed, angry, happy, surprised.When angry, the light brown eyes will burst into flames, which are astonishingly bright and beautiful.

It's just that this kind of anger is all superficial, vivid and vivid in one second, and gone in the blink of an eye in the next second.

It's like Xia Qing was dizzy from being sprayed by Fu Changsheng in the imperial garden, but on the way back, his hair was slightly wet with dew, and he was able to concentrate on telling him that Lingguang was so cold in winter with a shocked face.

Not only anger, but also joy, sadness and other emotions, even love and hate.

Too forgetful.

Really not for love, not for love.

Getting along day and night, with all kinds of subtle temptations, Lou Guanxue also understands Xia Qing's temperament more and more.

——If you want to escape, then do so. When his patience is exhausted, he won't need his answer.

Perhaps, from the moment he tied the red rope around his wrist, Xia Qing's answer was never within his consideration.

Lou Guanxue smiled softly, her long eyelashes covering her dark and cold eyes.

Xia Qing believed that he had no grievances with Wen Jiao, so he didn't deliberately avoid Wen Jiao on the boat.

Lou Guanxue didn't like dealing with people, so she studied the map of Chunshang Cave that she had drawn in her room.

Before he persuaded Lou Guanxue to join this group of casual cultivators, he only said a few words - "I think it will save them a lot of detours. And they will rent a boat and sleep more comfortably."

Lou Guanxue only asked indifferently: "Could it be that following me will lead you to detours?"

Xia Qing thought for a while: "The point is the latter."

Lou Guanxue looked at him quietly for a few seconds, then nodded and smiled: "Xia Qing, you really need to be served everywhere."

Xia Qing almost choked himself to death while drinking water, but when he heard the word "serve", he immediately thought of that terrible meal, and even worse, he chose to leave through the window.

So when Huang Qi was surprised and asked him how Lou Guanxue agreed.

Xia Qing couldn't answer at all.

Huang Qi's face was full of joy: "I haven't seen that fellow Taoist talk to anyone else for so many days. Is it true that seniors with advanced cultivation bases are so ignorant of world affairs?"

It's the wind and the moon of shit, it's because your seniors don't want to talk to you.

Xia Qing bit the sugar figurine, expressionless: "Didn't you ever think that he might be dumb?"

Huang Qi was shocked: "Huh?"

As a result, he had just finished the conversation with Huang Qi and was about to go upstairs when he heard a familiar voice.

"Xia Qing?!"

The boy's voice was delicate and thin, and now there was a slight tremor.

Wen Jiao came down from upstairs, her pink and white dress was very conspicuous in the crowd.When his eyes fell on Xia Qing, his pupils constricted, his whole body stiffened, his fingers gripped the railing tightly, and his voice trembled with strange excitement for a moment.

Xia Qing took the sugar figurine away from his mouth, gave him a strange look, and nodded, not intending to communicate, and went upstairs by mistake.

Huang Qi's impression of Wen Jiao was that he was a nobleman protected by Xuan Yunzong. He was afraid of the strong, but he didn't like such a delicate woman like Wen Jiao. He continued to ask Xia Qing: "Is it really dumb?"

Xia Qing accepted: "It's fake. Keep your voice down, or I'll be made dumb by him."

Huang Qi: "Oh oh oh."

Wen Jiao was completely ignored, staring blankly at Xia Qing's back.

The young man was still wearing the same gray robe, neither rich nor cheap, simple and casual, biting a sugar figurine, and talking to the fat monk next to him in a very natural tone.

Wen Jiao clenched her fingers tightly, and the hatred in her heart grew deeper after being so ignored.

"How will you be here?"

Wen Jiao raised his voice all of a sudden.

Wen Jiao was originally brought up by Xuanyun Sect disciple Zhong Xing Pengyue, and it was easy to attract the limelight on the boat, so many people looked at him when he made such a noise.

Xia Qing: "?"

Everyone else is stupid.

He really hates being watched by a group of people.

But before he could answer, Wen Jiao calmed down his anger and smiled very slowly and sweetly.

His eyes were always red in the palace of Chu State, and his body trembled and cried.Now, once he gains power, his suppressed nature will be completely exposed in an instant.

Even distorted by years of humiliation, especially in front of Xia Qing.

That kind of jealousy that has been accumulated for many years can finally vent today.

Wen Jiao's heart seemed to be bitten by a poisonous snake.

When he saw Xia Qing, he thought of Fu Changsheng's words, and the difference between clouds and mud before!

Wen Jiao said softly: "Xia Qing, when did you leave the palace?"

Xia Qing chewed the candy and looked at him expressionlessly.

Wen Jiao was so excited that he lost all reason, so he didn't realize that the way Xia Qing looked at him hadn't changed from the beginning to the end, no matter whether he was Yun or mud back then, or his identities were switched now.

"Did you leave at the lantern banquet?" Wen Jiao slightly opened his lips, his voice was very soft: "You ran away when His Majesty disappeared, how could you be so ungrateful."

Wen Jiao bit her lower lip with her white teeth, it seemed particularly incomprehensible, and her voice became louder: "Your Majesty treated you so well at the beginning, but you have been missing for a long time and you sneaked out of the palace, and there was another man by your side. Xia Qing, why don't you So inseparable from a man, so..." Wen Jiao pursed her lips, as if she was well-bred, and embarrassedly said the word: "So... low?"

Xia Qing didn't really listen to Wen Jiao's words.

When Wen Jiao called out to him, he just stared at the mole and wandered away.

Wen Jiao's eyes turned red: "I know that His Majesty brought you back to the palace from Fengyue Tower. You used to be a servant..." The well-educated young man pursed his lower lip again, ashamed to say those two words: "But is it true that bitches are ruthless and actors are ruthless?"

incredible.

——You can even say a bitch, but you can't say the word "Xiaowan"?

Xia Qing bit the sugar figurine into pieces and took out the stick.

Huang Qi is also stupid, he doesn't know what nonsense this little boy in pink is talking about.

Xia Qing turned her head while holding the stick and said to Huang Qi, "Now you know the benefits of being dumb."

Huang Qi: "..." I see, some people are really not as good as dumb.

Xia Qing had just finished eating the sugar figurine, and her lips turned the color of sugar. Standing on the stairs a few steps higher, among the thousands of floating dust, she took a look at Wen Jiao.

——He really found Wen Jiao quite interesting.

So what is Wen Jiao doing now?Slap him in the face with the script of 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi?But he really hates being watched by a group of people, no matter what role he plays in the face-slapping script.

Xia Qing thought for a while, then said slowly, "I haven't provoked you, either."

Wen Jiao was stunned, as if she hadn't expected Xia Qing to have such a reaction at all.

Xia Qing stuffed the candy lottery into his mouth, and only wanted to leave: "There is a wrong and a debt, so you don't have to use the words that Lou Guanxue scolded you to say about me."

——Take the words that Lou Guanxue scolded you.

Wen Jiao's face turned pale all of a sudden.

"Who is Jiaojiao?" Seeing Wen Jiao being bullied, Kou Xinghua finally got up from his seat and stood up.

Wen Jiao's eyes were really red this time, and the most humiliating memory in his heart was revealed. He wiped the reddish corners of his eyes with his sleeve: "Yes, it's a person I met in the palace before."

Xia Qing sneered with the sugar figure in his mouth, "Where did you meet? The Clothes Bureau? Or where the eunuchs live."

Wen Jiao's mind suddenly went blank, and he froze in place.

He was too preoccupied with making things worse, was dazzled by jealousy, and almost forgot that Xia Qing was also the person who knew his past best.

Xia Qing took all his expressions into his eyes, breathed out quietly, took out the stick in his mouth again, and said seriously: "I'm really afraid of you, please stay away from me in the future, please. I saw you before It's like hell, I didn't expect it to be the same now."

"I……"

Wen Jiao trembled all over, like falling into an ice cellar.

Many people in the boat were stunned by the words Huanyiju and eunuch, and began to whisper, all eyes fell on him like slaps, slapping his face one after another.

So did Kou Xinghua, slightly stunned, isn't this the person the high priest entrusted to them?Although the high priest didn't say anything, but what kind of person is the high priest, how could he hand over a eunuch from the Clothes Bureau to them.

Xia Qing really didn't like being surrounded by people, so she twitched the corner of her mouth and hurriedly left a sentence to end.

"You'd better let yourself go."
