I started a boy band in ancient times
Chapter 50 The moon halos and the wind, the foundation moistens and rains Thank you, um...
The next day.
Chu Qi was wrapped in a thick quilt and drank ginger soup, plugged his ears with two fingers, and looked depressed that life was not easy.
The reason was neither the young man who was unconscious on the bed, nor Boss Peng, who was knocking around him but still didn't understand, as if he really had nothing to do with the emperor.
It lies in the two people who are crying and laughing next to each other.
Mingyao: "My first kiss is gone just like that! Woohoo! Brother Xi is not human!"
Lan Ningbing: "Hey, what happened afterwards? This kid didn't wake up all night, and you made him into a building? And then our brave son got such a cold?"
Mingyao: "Otherwise, I didn't return home until midnight. Fortunately, I didn't bump into my father! What's the matter with him having a cold, you should pity me..."
"Xiao Ming," Chu Qi couldn't listen anymore, "It's your first kiss, I'm too lazy to expose you, let alone artificial respiration, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."
Mingyao wanted to say a few words about his innocence, while Chai Bin on the side was crying with tears on his face: "Master, you really can't do this, your body is precious, if something happens, how can your subordinates explain it to the prince? Next time, no subordinates will let you go out alone!"
Ling Feidu nodded in agreement with a rare tacit understanding.
Chu Qi supported his head with a headache, "Okay, there's no next time...Ah!" He sneezed, stretched his neck and glanced at the sleeping child.After he was rescued, the doctor under Peng Yongyan treated him first and said that there was nothing serious, and he prescribed some medicine and waited for him to wake up. Something is wrong.
This young man is thin and thin, much thinner than children of the same age, there is no internal force in his veins, and on the contrary, his pulse is disordered, unprecedented, but he does not know where it comes from.His body was still bruised and purple, covered with mottled scars, but all of them were old wounds, only a few small scratches that seemed to be left recently, and looked like an abused slave who had escaped from somewhere.
——If you ignore his perfect physical strength and weird pulse.
Chu Qi was very curious about the many mysteries about him, but of course what he cared most about was his relationship with Liu Jiyue.
Is he the person Liu Jiyue is looking for?Peng Yongyan categorically denied it, and no one else came to look for him. No matter how you look at it, only this child is the most conspicuous, and his slight features of fear of water, aphasia, and timidity always make some deep memory images flash before his eyes, as if stained with whose shadow.
Of course, if he told his delusion, others would probably just look at him dumbfounded.
With hot forehead and itchy throat, Chu Qi went to sleep again, and was still a little confused when he was awakened by the loud noise in the haze, until Chai Bin rushed in in a panic, shouting "that person is awake" and then woke up , striding over there.
His eyelids started to twitch when he saw half of the door that was about to fall. It wouldn't be enough to demolish a Jinghongzhou Pavilion, but the Fengguang Building should also be demolished?
Looking into the room, he was even more taken aback. The tables and chairs were all broken and messy, Ling Feidu's fine iron chain whip was torn into two pieces, and he stared at the perpetrator with a livid face.
The instigator was sitting on the bed with his eyes blank, and Lan Ningbing was holding the Yaoqin in his arms, playing a soothing tune, the voice in his mouth was not the usual hoarse and low falsetto, but his real melodious voice, which was exceptionally soft and deep , as if to induce speech.
"This place can keep you safe." Lan Ningbing said, "Relax."
This was the first time that Chu Qi witnessed the power of his hallucinogenic power with his own eyes, and the person who even slapped Ling Feidu became quiet under his control.But when Chu Qi approached and looked carefully, he saw that Lan Ningbing's face was completely annoyed and irritable, and there was a bruise on his head, which was probably injured by the spread.
Seeing him appearing, Lan Ningbing became even more impatient, and protested fiercely with her eyes: "Quickly solve this trouble!"
Chu Qi also had the same intention. He squatted down, looked at the boy at the same level, and said to Lan Ningbing, "Let me try to talk to him."
Lan Ningbing showed hesitation.
"It's okay, we have to communicate and comfort after all, if you can't, you can sing again."
With the cessation of the sound of the piano and whispers, the confusion in the eyes of the young man in front of him gradually faded away, replaced by panic and fear, he subconsciously raised his hands to hug his head, making a posture of self-defense, but was stunned the moment he saw Chu Qi Living.
Seeing his reaction, Chu Qi couldn't help but smiled: "Why are you still afraid? I almost vomited blood when I was hit with an arm."
Hearing this, the child lowered his head and dared not speak.
Clearly possessing such formidable strength, but such a personality, really... Chu Qi doesn't know if this is a blessing or a curse.
He asked Ling Feidu to step back for the time being. He was afraid of frightening this person, but asked Lan Ningbing to stay. After all, if there was an emergency, he could still control the field. Put them one by one in front of him, and said: "Although the imperial doctor checked, you have no signs of typhoid fever, but you should take precautions before it happens."
The kid clenched his fingers more tightly.
Chu Qi looked at him for a while: "Speaking of...do you understand what I'm talking about?"
He nodded slightly.
"So you can't talk?"
He shook his head subtly.
Chu Qi: "..." The doctor checked him before, and there is no scar on his throat and tongue, and most of the dumb people are accompanied by deafness, but since the two places are fine now, it may only be... heart disease?
Why is it heart disease again, it's the same thing again.
But this is also not the time to ask why you can't speak.
"I didn't have any malicious intentions. I just ran into you by chance, so I rescued you. First, take good care of your illness. When you recover, you can choose to stay or leave on your own." That's what I said, but before leaving After figuring it out, he did have some schemes, "My name is Chu Qi, you can also call me Shizi, here, just these two words."
Chu Qi casually wrote his own name in his palm, and only after he finished writing did he realize that a character like a little slave could not possibly be literate.
But to Chu Qi's surprise, the boy stared at his palm with wide eyes, then carefully stretched out his finger, and traced two words on the back of his hand.
"Biwu?" Chu Qi read it again, as if realizing something, "Your name is Biwu?"
The young man lowered his head and smiled embarrassedly, and said softly: "En."
Chu Qi noticed that the other party's vigilance had finally let go, so he watched him eat and asked some words step by step, but firstly, Biwu was too slow to write with his fingers, and secondly, he often looked blank and shook his head He said that he didn't know, so he didn't ask for anything.
Seeing that he was also a little tired, Chu Qi asked him to rest first and come to him later.
There are still many mysteries about Biwu, such as why he fell into the water in the western suburbs before, where the old wounds and brute force came from, whether he is the person the emperor is looking for, etc., but these things cannot be rushed.
He was thinking about Biwu's background when he heard Lan Ningbing suddenly say: "Today is the third day of junior high school."
Chu Qi responded casually, "Xiao Han is here."
Lan Ningbing glanced at him: "There are still two days until the fifth day of the lunar new year. It seems that we have no chance before Princess Yue'e enters the palace. I saw you were not there yesterday, so I thought you sneaked in alone."
Chu Xiweng said in a low voice: "Then wait until after the fifth day of the new year to find a solution. What are you in a hurry for?"
"I'm in a hurry. After all, if your emperor listens to what I say, he probably won't want to accept Princess Yue'e as his concubine."
Chu Qi looked at him suspiciously.
Lan Ningbing said again: "Although it seems that he doesn't want to accept it, he also understands the secret."
"Give me a reason, hurry up." Chu Qi walked past him impatiently.
Lan Ningbing gave a "tsk", followed her and said, "I can't tell you the deep reason, but only on the surface, have you ever wondered why Beiyong and Xiwan are so friendly?"
Beiyong's overtures were obvious, and it was a big deal, but compared to Beiyong's fanfare, few people knew of Xiwan's private association. Even Chu Qi only knew that Xiwan's spies had infiltrated the capital. Three monsters were brought by them.
After they were caught out, they were naturally beaten as solicitors, but from another perspective, those three monsters might also be a kind of "show of favor" by offering treasures...
Chu Qi suddenly shuddered.
He asked, "Why?"
"Of course it's because they are going to have nowhere to go," Lan Ningbing said, "but Dong Cheng, or Liu Jiyue can save them."
These words sound unbelievable, the frontiers did not seldom go to war in the past few years, the two countries of Yong and Wan are living well, how could they turn to the enemy for help without reason?And from what he said, the person who saved his life was not the power of the whole country, or Chu Jingzhong who held great power, but Liu Jiyue alone.
However, Chu Qi seemed to have guessed the deep meaning.
"You want royal blood?"
Lan Ningbing suddenly looked at him, her tone full of astonishment: "How do you know?"
Chu Qi didn't answer directly. For a while, the words "Taiyin Youying" and "Bloodline Power" that he had read in the imperial study that day appeared in front of his eyes again, but the doubly doubts at that time seemed to be revealed at this moment. With some clues, he closed his eyes and recalled part of the content: "The royal family of Xiwan is sparsely populated, exists in name only, and the whole country is almost controlled by the Wu clan. The tribes live in a mixed environment with many descendants, and over the years, the Xuanwu bloodline has been diluted. Is this why they are in danger and have nowhere to go?"
Lan Ningbing stopped in her tracks. If she took off his black silk at this moment, one could see that his eyes were full of disbelief and anger.But he closed his eyes, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked again: "Where did you know?"
Without waiting for Chu Qi to answer, he said to himself: "This is the secret of the royal families of various countries. It is related to the fate of the country and even the fate of the world. The ancestors of the past generations have always guarded this secret, and they regard it more solemnly than the will. informed qualifications."
Chu Qi's eyebrows jumped. He knew that this matter was secret, but he never thought that it would be so secret. How could Liu Jiyue put such a thing that was comparable to a will at his fingertips?
That Duan Lan Ningbing has already helped him explain: "Yes, it can only be that Emperor Liu told you. That's right, the current imperial city of Chengguo was only rebuilt on the site of the previous dynasty. Entering the inner court of Jin, although it was rumored that a big fire was set off, and later it was said that the document with the secret record was found out, but the above regulations were not followed, but even if it was not followed... it doesn't matter."
Chu Xi said: "Why doesn't it matter?"
Lan Ningbing pulled out an indescribable smile, which seemed sad but not sad, mocking but not mocking: "The dynasty has changed, and the new Emperor Liu has no blood power, so why should he abide by the old rules of other countries?"
It is the power of blood again.After hearing this word too much, Chu Qi became a little numb. He calmly asked Lan Ningbing: "On you, no, does the strange ability of your Lan family also belong to the power of blood? Is it... Qinglong blood?"
Lan Ningbing shrugged her shoulders: "If you have to say it, let it be. The old country was destroyed by the tsunami storm, but because the tribe lived on the island and intermarried all the year round, it left a little strangeness, and it's not a big deal. It works."
"However..." He changed the subject, "The old country of my family has long been destroyed, and the preservation of blood is no longer an important matter, but for Xiwan and Beiyong, it is a major event related to the fate of the country."
"The blood of the white tiger is so rare that it is almost extinct; the blood of the Xuanwu is so weak that it is almost non-existent. Corresponding to this is the decline of all countries. It is not uncommon for the Xiwan witch clan to replace the government. , the tribal rebellion in Beiyong is also intensifying, but I am afraid that the famine and disasters below are not even clear to their monarchs, if no measures are taken, will they really want to see the country collapse?"
Chu Qi wondered: "According to you, the blood of the royal family is related to the fate of the country, but in the millennia of inheritance, the reasons for the successive collapse of ancient countries are different. Your old country of the Lan clan was destroyed by natural disasters, so what about the country of Ye with Qilin blood? I heard that There is no definite reason for the collapse of the dynasty. What about the country of Ji with the blood of the snake? It is only 30 years ago, and I heard that there are orphans from the previous dynasty who went to seek refuge in Qianbo Island. Could it be that these kingdoms have problems with the blood of the royal family? ?”
"How do you know everything!" Lan Ningbing stomped her feet in despair, "I was only able to consult ancient books after I succeeded the patriarch of the Lan clan, and because Qianbo Island is far away from the Central Plains, there are no records and I don't know much about it because I haven't been on the island all year round. , You... your emperor is really crazy!"
Chu Qi could vaguely understand his anger. If the fortunes of those countries really depended entirely on the royal family, once others knew this secret, it would probably cause earth-shaking changes.
"But what does that have to do with Liu Jiyue?" With his thoughts turned sharply, Chu Qi didn't care about the serious crime of calling the emperor by his name. Anyway, it seemed that he and Lan Ningbing didn't care.He frowned and said: "Although I don't understand the origin, inheritance and old system of the power of the blood, but just now you also said that the royal family of the new dynasty does not have this power, so why did Beiyong and Xiwan seek him? "
Lan Ningbing snorted angrily, but didn't answer for a while, he clenched his cuffs with his fingers, and couldn't hide his anxiety: "I can't explain it, so don't ask!"
Chu Qi suddenly became annoyed, and he didn't say anything at the most critical moment, so he thought to himself: "The purpose of Beiyong's proposal is to marry, but I don't know what Xiwan wants? I don't even know how many members of their royal family are left." I don't know, but let's count it as a marriage. After the marriage, even if you give birth to an heir, you can't inherit the throne. Even if you take a step back and inherit, it should be decades later. Could it be that Yong Wan The hope of saving the country is placed on such an unattainable goal?"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt strange: "Unless...their purpose is not marriage?"
After a long silence, Lan Ningbing finally opened her mouth and said: "I don't know what they are thinking, after all... there is no record of changing dynasties in the past. Dongcheng is the first and only new country. The royal family has no blood power , but no one can say for sure whether the fate of the country is also tied to the blood of the royal family."
These words sound mysterious, but in ancient times there were often rumors that something won the world, or that someone was the reincarnation of the emperor star.Those who can wear dragon robes and be respected in the south are all ordered by the sky, and their own luck is one in a million, not to mention living in the imperial city for a long time, gathering the luck of the world as their own body, and sharing honor and disgrace as time goes by.
"As for the real purpose, it's not something I should worry about. I thought your emperor didn't know about the power of blood, so I wanted to remind you, but now it seems that I am meddling in my own business." Lan Ningbing said, " It’s rare for me to be merciful.”
Seeing him walking out with an unhappy expression, Chu Qi thought about something in his mind, and still asked, "Why is Gubin country affected by natural disasters?"
Bin Country, an ancient country ruled by the Qinglong bloodline, is located on the far island, and it was also the former land of the Lan clan.
"Because of 'marriage'." Lan Ningbing stopped and said slowly: "In the ancient regulations, this is a very serious prohibition. The royal families of various countries are not allowed to intermarry, let alone have children, because it will cause the blood of the royal family to be damaged. Pollution. But when I looked up ancient books, I found out that the last queen mother of Binguo was from Nanmu, and she even had the blood of Suzaku. It is impossible to verify how she became the queen mother. It is true that the storm that is about to destroy the country is coming."
"That's why I believe that it is impossible for Beiyong to marry with any friendly intentions. But... just in case, I can't say for sure. Anyway, no matter how you look at it, even if you get married, Dongcheng will have nothing to lose."
Chu Qi kept thinking about Lan Ningbing's words until the evening.
In the past, he only knew that Chengguo overthrew the old dynasty, but the history of neighboring countries is very long. There are some sacrificial customs and so-called totem symbols that Chengguo did not have. He didn't think about it when he saw the book transcribed by Liu Jiyue in the imperial study. How much, I thought it was just the old history of various countries, but I couldn't figure out how it was related to the follow-up mission he inexplicably added.
But today, Lan Ningbing revealed too much. Although she cleared up a lot of doubts, she threw out more mysteries, making people feel as if they were trapped in a dangerous fog and could not breathe.
Annoying man.
As for the root of the annoyance, it may all come from the inexplicable follow-up task. Without it, he would not curiously open the book on the imperial case, and then be confused by the secret he discovered by accident; without it, he would be able to I sincerely congratulate Liu Jiyue for accepting Princess Beiyong as a concubine, instead of being upset about Beiyong's unknown purpose now.
He poked open the star system angrily.
In the system task interface, the unlocking progress bar of "The Rise of the Shadow of the Taiyin" has become 20%, because He Lanyi has joined the group these days, and their combination was also half-coaxed and half-deceived by him to perform once. For all kinds of things, I got 5 development points anyway, now a total of 10 points, and there are still 40 points before the follow-up mission is unlocked. I don’t know if it will be the year of the monkey.
It's even more annoying.
After thinking for a long time, Chu Qi rubbed his hair carelessly, and finally made up his mind that he was really going to venture into the palace tomorrow.Although it is likely that he will not see Liu Jiyue, Chu Jingzhong may still be willing to see him.
He even had an opening line in mind. First, he used the story that Princess Yue'e's idol was Princess Jing to soften Chu Jingzhong, and then brought the topic to Liu Jiyue. It's best if you can see it, and if you can't, try to pass it on." Biwu" and "Beware of Beiyong" news.
Thinking about this, Chu Qi went to Biwu's side again, to see how he was recovering and if he could talk again.Just after entering the door, he saw Mingyao was also in the room, with fleeting panic on his expression.
Chu Qi felt it was novel, he laughed and said, "What are you doing here?"
Mingyao: "I'm here to care about my new colleagues in the future."
Chu Qi: "...When did I say that Biwu would become your colleague?"
He didn't plan to let Biwu join the group either. Biwu's singing and dancing points are not high, and he is a bit reluctant to let go. Although if he joins the group, he can be the group favorite and the youngest, but that terrifying brute force may be able to perform a single The quack acrobatics of all the rest of the members.
...Thinking about it this way, I really feel that the effect may be very good.
Biwu stayed aside quietly and blinked, it seemed that he and Mingyao had a good chat.
Congratulations, I didn't bully him, but this may not be in line with the common hobbies of their team, so Biwu will not join the team.
Mingyao: "Brother Xi, while chatting with Xiao Wu, I discovered two things, one good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
Chu Qi: "Lan Ningbing, He Lanyi, which one do you want to choose first?"
Mingyao: "..."
Mingyao said angrily: "The good news is that Xiaowu trusts you very much and wants to stay in Fengguanglou. The bad news is that he has lost his memory!"
"Amnesia?" Chu Qi asked Biwu, one head and two older, "Don't you remember what happened before? What do you remember?"
Biwu hangs his head listlessly, and expresses with difficulty that when he was rescued on Jinghongzhou Pavilion, he didn't remember the previous events, because he didn't know anything, so he was struggling all the time, the madam sent someone to deny him food, He was so hungry that he had no strength, and then he gained strength, but at first he didn't move, it was those servants who made moves on him before he fought back.
He only remembered his name and was afraid of water. It was Chu Qi who saved him. He didn't remember anything about the past. He only knew that he was very strong and could do a lot of work, so he wanted to stay and repay him.
Chu Qi: "..." He didn't dare to ask Biwu to do anything. He felt that even a flick of his fingers might have the power to open someone's head.
But he still said: "...Then stay here and get acquainted with Fengguanglou for a while."
Full of joy, Biwu wrote on the paper and handed it to Chu Qi.
"Thank you, benefactor."
The handwriting is small and exquisite, which is quite beautiful.
Chu Xi knew that his current focus should be on Biwu's real identity, but he couldn't help thinking that it was another person who loved to communicate with him by using notes.
Chu Qi was wrapped in a thick quilt and drank ginger soup, plugged his ears with two fingers, and looked depressed that life was not easy.
The reason was neither the young man who was unconscious on the bed, nor Boss Peng, who was knocking around him but still didn't understand, as if he really had nothing to do with the emperor.
It lies in the two people who are crying and laughing next to each other.
Mingyao: "My first kiss is gone just like that! Woohoo! Brother Xi is not human!"
Lan Ningbing: "Hey, what happened afterwards? This kid didn't wake up all night, and you made him into a building? And then our brave son got such a cold?"
Mingyao: "Otherwise, I didn't return home until midnight. Fortunately, I didn't bump into my father! What's the matter with him having a cold, you should pity me..."
"Xiao Ming," Chu Qi couldn't listen anymore, "It's your first kiss, I'm too lazy to expose you, let alone artificial respiration, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."
Mingyao wanted to say a few words about his innocence, while Chai Bin on the side was crying with tears on his face: "Master, you really can't do this, your body is precious, if something happens, how can your subordinates explain it to the prince? Next time, no subordinates will let you go out alone!"
Ling Feidu nodded in agreement with a rare tacit understanding.

Why is it heart disease again, it's the same thing again.
But this is also not the time to ask why you can't speak.

Without waiting for Chu Qi to answer, he said to himself: "This is the secret of the royal families of various countries. It is related to the fate of the country and even the fate of the world. The ancestors of the past generations have always guarded this secret, and they regard it more solemnly than the will. informed qualifications."
Chu Qi's eyebrows jumped. He knew that this matter was secret, but he never thought that it would be so secret. How could Liu Jiyue put such a thing that was comparable to a will at his fingertips?
That Duan Lan Ningbing has already helped him explain: "Yes, it can only be that Emperor Liu told you. That's right, the current imperial city of Chengguo was only rebuilt on the site of the previous dynasty. Entering the inner court of Jin, although it was rumored that a big fire was set off, and later it was said that the document with the secret record was found out, but the above regulations were not followed, but even if it was not followed... it doesn't matter."
Chu Xi said: "Why doesn't it matter?"
Lan Ningbing pulled out an indescribable smile, which seemed sad but not sad, mocking but not mocking: "The dynasty has changed, and the new Emperor Liu has no blood power, so why should he abide by the old rules of other countries?"
It is the power of blood again.After hearing this word too much, Chu Qi became a little numb. He calmly asked Lan Ningbing: "On you, no, does the strange ability of your Lan family also belong to the power of blood? Is it... Qinglong blood?"
Lan Ningbing shrugged her shoulders: "If you have to say it, let it be. The old country was destroyed by the tsunami storm, but because the tribe lived on the island and intermarried all the year round, it left a little strangeness, and it's not a big deal. It works."
"However..." He changed the subject, "The old country of my family has long been destroyed, and the preservation of blood is no longer an important matter, but for Xiwan and Beiyong, it is a major event related to the fate of the country."
"The blood of the white tiger is so rare that it is almost extinct; the blood of the Xuanwu is so weak that it is almost non-existent. Corresponding to this is the decline of all countries. It is not uncommon for the Xiwan witch clan to replace the government. , the tribal rebellion in Beiyong is also intensifying, but I am afraid that the famine and disasters below are not even clear to their monarchs, if no measures are taken, will they really want to see the country collapse?"
Chu Qi wondered: "According to you, the blood of the royal family is related to the fate of the country, but in the millennia of inheritance, the reasons for the successive collapse of ancient countries are different. Your old country of the Lan clan was destroyed by natural disasters, so what about the country of Ye with Qilin blood? I heard that There is no definite reason for the collapse of the dynasty. What about the country of Ji with the blood of the snake? It is only 30 years ago, and I heard that there are orphans from the previous dynasty who went to seek refuge in Qianbo Island. Could it be that these kingdoms have problems with the blood of the royal family? ?”
"How do you know everything!" Lan Ningbing stomped her feet in despair, "I was only able to consult ancient books after I succeeded the patriarch of the Lan clan, and because Qianbo Island is far away from the Central Plains, there are no records and I don't know much about it because I haven't been on the island all year round. , You... your emperor is really crazy!"
Chu Qi could vaguely understand his anger. If the fortunes of those countries really depended entirely on the royal family, once others knew this secret, it would probably cause earth-shaking changes.
"But what does that have to do with Liu Jiyue?" With his thoughts turned sharply, Chu Qi didn't care about the serious crime of calling the emperor by his name. Anyway, it seemed that he and Lan Ningbing didn't care.He frowned and said: "Although I don't understand the origin, inheritance and old system of the power of the blood, but just now you also said that the royal family of the new dynasty does not have this power, so why did Beiyong and Xiwan seek him? "
Lan Ningbing snorted angrily, but didn't answer for a while, he clenched his cuffs with his fingers, and couldn't hide his anxiety: "I can't explain it, so don't ask!"
Chu Qi suddenly became annoyed, and he didn't say anything at the most critical moment, so he thought to himself: "The purpose of Beiyong's proposal is to marry, but I don't know what Xiwan wants? I don't even know how many members of their royal family are left." I don't know, but let's count it as a marriage. After the marriage, even if you give birth to an heir, you can't inherit the throne. Even if you take a step back and inherit, it should be decades later. Could it be that Yong Wan The hope of saving the country is placed on such an unattainable goal?"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt strange: "Unless...their purpose is not marriage?"
After a long silence, Lan Ningbing finally opened her mouth and said: "I don't know what they are thinking, after all... there is no record of changing dynasties in the past. Dongcheng is the first and only new country. The royal family has no blood power , but no one can say for sure whether the fate of the country is also tied to the blood of the royal family."
These words sound mysterious, but in ancient times there were often rumors that something won the world, or that someone was the reincarnation of the emperor star.Those who can wear dragon robes and be respected in the south are all ordered by the sky, and their own luck is one in a million, not to mention living in the imperial city for a long time, gathering the luck of the world as their own body, and sharing honor and disgrace as time goes by.
"As for the real purpose, it's not something I should worry about. I thought your emperor didn't know about the power of blood, so I wanted to remind you, but now it seems that I am meddling in my own business." Lan Ningbing said, " It’s rare for me to be merciful.”
Seeing him walking out with an unhappy expression, Chu Qi thought about something in his mind, and still asked, "Why is Gubin country affected by natural disasters?"
Bin Country, an ancient country ruled by the Qinglong bloodline, is located on the far island, and it was also the former land of the Lan clan.
"Because of 'marriage'." Lan Ningbing stopped and said slowly: "In the ancient regulations, this is a very serious prohibition. The royal families of various countries are not allowed to intermarry, let alone have children, because it will cause the blood of the royal family to be damaged. Pollution. But when I looked up ancient books, I found out that the last queen mother of Binguo was from Nanmu, and she even had the blood of Suzaku. It is impossible to verify how she became the queen mother. It is true that the storm that is about to destroy the country is coming."
"That's why I believe that it is impossible for Beiyong to marry with any friendly intentions. But... just in case, I can't say for sure. Anyway, no matter how you look at it, even if you get married, Dongcheng will have nothing to lose."
Chu Qi kept thinking about Lan Ningbing's words until the evening.
In the past, he only knew that Chengguo overthrew the old dynasty, but the history of neighboring countries is very long. There are some sacrificial customs and so-called totem symbols that Chengguo did not have. He didn't think about it when he saw the book transcribed by Liu Jiyue in the imperial study. How much, I thought it was just the old history of various countries, but I couldn't figure out how it was related to the follow-up mission he inexplicably added.
But today, Lan Ningbing revealed too much. Although she cleared up a lot of doubts, she threw out more mysteries, making people feel as if they were trapped in a dangerous fog and could not breathe.
Annoying man.
As for the root of the annoyance, it may all come from the inexplicable follow-up task. Without it, he would not curiously open the book on the imperial case, and then be confused by the secret he discovered by accident; without it, he would be able to I sincerely congratulate Liu Jiyue for accepting Princess Beiyong as a concubine, instead of being upset about Beiyong's unknown purpose now.
He poked open the star system angrily.
In the system task interface, the unlocking progress bar of "The Rise of the Shadow of the Taiyin" has become 20%, because He Lanyi has joined the group these days, and their combination was also half-coaxed and half-deceived by him to perform once. For all kinds of things, I got 5 development points anyway, now a total of 10 points, and there are still 40 points before the follow-up mission is unlocked. I don’t know if it will be the year of the monkey.
It's even more annoying.
After thinking for a long time, Chu Qi rubbed his hair carelessly, and finally made up his mind that he was really going to venture into the palace tomorrow.Although it is likely that he will not see Liu Jiyue, Chu Jingzhong may still be willing to see him.
He even had an opening line in mind. First, he used the story that Princess Yue'e's idol was Princess Jing to soften Chu Jingzhong, and then brought the topic to Liu Jiyue. It's best if you can see it, and if you can't, try to pass it on." Biwu" and "Beware of Beiyong" news.
Thinking about this, Chu Qi went to Biwu's side again, to see how he was recovering and if he could talk again.Just after entering the door, he saw Mingyao was also in the room, with fleeting panic on his expression.
Chu Qi felt it was novel, he laughed and said, "What are you doing here?"
Mingyao: "I'm here to care about my new colleagues in the future."
Chu Qi: "...When did I say that Biwu would become your colleague?"
He didn't plan to let Biwu join the group either. Biwu's singing and dancing points are not high, and he is a bit reluctant to let go. Although if he joins the group, he can be the group favorite and the youngest, but that terrifying brute force may be able to perform a single The quack acrobatics of all the rest of the members.
...Thinking about it this way, I really feel that the effect may be very good.
Biwu stayed aside quietly and blinked, it seemed that he and Mingyao had a good chat.
Congratulations, I didn't bully him, but this may not be in line with the common hobbies of their team, so Biwu will not join the team.
Mingyao: "Brother Xi, while chatting with Xiao Wu, I discovered two things, one good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"
Chu Qi: "Lan Ningbing, He Lanyi, which one do you want to choose first?"
Mingyao: "..."
Mingyao said angrily: "The good news is that Xiaowu trusts you very much and wants to stay in Fengguanglou. The bad news is that he has lost his memory!"
"Amnesia?" Chu Qi asked Biwu, one head and two older, "Don't you remember what happened before? What do you remember?"
Biwu hangs his head listlessly, and expresses with difficulty that when he was rescued on Jinghongzhou Pavilion, he didn't remember the previous events, because he didn't know anything, so he was struggling all the time, the madam sent someone to deny him food, He was so hungry that he had no strength, and then he gained strength, but at first he didn't move, it was those servants who made moves on him before he fought back.
He only remembered his name and was afraid of water. It was Chu Qi who saved him. He didn't remember anything about the past. He only knew that he was very strong and could do a lot of work, so he wanted to stay and repay him.
Chu Qi: "..." He didn't dare to ask Biwu to do anything. He felt that even a flick of his fingers might have the power to open someone's head.
But he still said: "...Then stay here and get acquainted with Fengguanglou for a while."
Full of joy, Biwu wrote on the paper and handed it to Chu Qi.
"Thank you, benefactor."
The handwriting is small and exquisite, which is quite beautiful.
Chu Xi knew that his current focus should be on Biwu's real identity, but he couldn't help thinking that it was another person who loved to communicate with him by using notes.
