In the middle of winter, the gorgeous wintersweet blooms freely, and the branches are built to decorate the vases in the main hall, and the magnificent palace also attracts bursts of plum fragrance.

The lights were shining brightly, and almost everyone knew that the woman in the hall who was chatting and laughing with the emperor was someone who would be included in the harem in the future, so the eunuchs and maids who came and went were very careful in serving them.

"Master, be careful about spilling wine." A little maid said timidly, and at the same time handed Qi Nianxian a glass of soft wine.

Qi Nianxian took it with a smile, and when he touched the bottom of the cup, he glanced at the maid calmly. The maid's eyes were still cowardly, but there was a hint of cunning, she immediately understood, holding the wine glass safely, she smiled at Emperor Sheng : "The emperor loves you so much. Nianxian heard that there was a famous wine in the palace, Amber Light. Could it be this wine?"

Emperor Cheng smiled without saying a word, and after the people around him poured a glass for him, he said slowly: "Amber light is the rumored wine. Many years ago, the eminent monk who protected the country brewed it for the ancestor emperor. It is said that it can prolong life, but the later generations will not I have never found this wine again, maybe when I am free and bored, I will find it by chance when wandering around this huge palace, then I will invite Lord Qimen to drink with me."

Emperor Sheng was majestic but handsome, and he was not confused at the age, when his charm was unstoppable. He thought that he would fall into the trap if he treated Qi Nianxian gently, but he didn't know that Qi Nianxian had already noticed it. Although he was flattered when he heard the words, but Alienated and polite: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Emperor Sheng was not sure about the meaning for a while, normally, once these few words are spoken, very few women can think of anything else, this is quite interesting.

And Qi Nianxian, relying entirely on the distance, has already opened the note hidden at the bottom of the cup, thinking about the above words——

"Dragging to Zi Shi."

She didn't know that font, but thinking about it, the only person who has the ability to appear here at this moment and has the brains to convey a message to her is only that person.

The king's intention to recruit is clearly revealed. According to what his brother said, the joints are complicated. Duan Wuliang really doesn't intend to invade the palace when he comes to the palace?Just to save Xu Chi?And my brother and the others disappeared after I came here, what did they lose?

"Nianxian, why do you feel so out of your mind? Don't these dishes suit your appetite?" Emperor Sheng asked extremely gently.

Qi Nianxian looked at his face, but he was already very disgusted in his heart, but he couldn't back down from the moment he stepped into the hall, thought for a while, and said in a clear voice: "Nianxian is just thinking, if there was no turmoil in Qimen, sitting here at this moment This is the elder brother, Nianxian will have more time to play, instead of shouldering the burden of Qimen..."

This sentence really speaks to the emperor's heart!

"I've heard about Brother Ling, it's really... regrettable," Emperor Cheng shook his head, pretending to be regretful, "The white peacock is sophisticated and complicated, and none of the people I sent have returned, not even Wuliang and Murong. They are all seriously injured, it is really difficult, if he is still there, I am afraid that Qimen is still in danger."

Emperor Sheng didn't mention the relic fragments at all, because he felt that Qi Nianxian, a girl, might not know about them, so if he just mentioned the threat of the white peacock to Qimen at this time, it would definitely make him panic.

Qi Nianxian played very well the expression that Emperor Cheng wanted to see, bit his teeth and frowned, "Qimen's vitality has been severely damaged after the first battle, and he must not be attacked by white peacocks again."

Emperor Sheng also frowned, brushed his palm over the edge of the wine glass and said, "The white peacock is missing now, and no one knows what his next goal is. If Miss Qi's words are hard to resist, then it is really... dangerous."

Qi Nianxian waited for him to speak for the last time, but Emperor Sheng kept playing side-by-side, and the two of them talked a few more words, but neither of them mentioned it.

In fact, the reason is very simple. As a scheming fox, Emperor Cheng must wait until Qi Nianxian is most flustered before extending his helping hand. Obviously, he has planned it long ago, but he must appear to be a highly respected person who saves people from fire and water. Mingjun; but Qi Nianxian is much simpler, she clearly knows what Emperor Sheng's plan is, but she has to delay again and again, just to give an infinite amount of time.

On the other side, Duan Wuliang, who had finally settled with Lan Zhi, wore a cloak to cover up his dazzling hair, and walked under the high wall. In order to prevent the two from arousing suspicion, Lan Zhi specially brought along a group of court ladies and eunuchs , with a high posture, completely showing her status as a noble concubine.Duan Wuliang walked beside her, completely covering up his sharpness.

On a cold winter night, a group of people walked slowly towards the palace prison holding bright red palace lanterns.

"Concubine Lan Gui!" The prison guard immediately knelt down when he saw Lan Zhi, so shocked that he didn't even dare to lift his head.

Concubine Lan Gui is different from any concubine in Emperor Sheng's harem. She is someone who can conspire with Emperor Sheng to guide the world. Hearing that the concubine has dominated the world before entering the palace is frightening, so court military officers like them should respect themselves Plus.

Lan Zhi's demeanor had already been cultivated, and the restraint she had when facing Song Qingshu was completely gone at the moment, her haughty appearance seemed to be favored by thousands of people: "I want to go to prison to investigate some people."

The guards naturally did not dare to be negligent, even though it was not in accordance with the rules, but Lan Zhi was different. It was well known that she had conspired with the emperor, so the emperor also gave her different powers from others.

"You guys wait outside, you come in with me." Lan Zhi said lightly, and brought Duan Wuliang into the prison with ease. During the process, Duan Wuliang kept his head down, and his silver hair was tied up very tightly, so as not to reveal a trace of strangeness and cause suspicion.

"Thank you, imperial concubine." Duan Wuliang said softly as he walked past her, Lan Zhi felt a little uneasy in her heart, and gritted her teeth: "If you find someone, take them away quickly."

Duan Wuliang paused for a moment, the dense candlelight miasma in the prison floated past the blue eyes he raised and revealed for a moment: "Is he really okay?"

Lan Zhi replied: "The place where he landed happened to be a blind spot arranged by Qu Chunliu's people, and no one found him. When I found him, he hung on a tree branch and saved his life, but his brain seemed to be damaged. I tried medication but it didn't work."

Brain crashed.

Duan Wuliang didn't dare to ask about Xu Chi's situation, because he was afraid that his "immortal lover" who he was proud of would not be able to survive this test, but just broke his brain. I have done too much to Xu Chi, even if Xu Chi can no longer heal him, he will spend his whole life taking care of him.

"Then... can the poison of ten years and one day be cured?" After a while, he asked again.

Lan Zhi's complexion suddenly changed, thinking that he was coming to settle the score: "Ten years and one day were what you asked me for in order to enhance your skills. You should know that once you take this medicine, there will be no turning back!"

"I know." After Duan Wuliang finished speaking, he walked into the deep corridor without looking back.

Faint cries for help from mortals came from both sides, and his resolute back made people feel flustered in this cramped and dark night.Lan Zhi swallowed her saliva, and walked a few steps in vigilantly before facing the door, so that she could deal with it in time in case of any emergencies. She was very cumbersome in her exquisite attire, and she frowned, and finally did nothing else.

Duan Wuliang took every step with extreme hesitation, he was decisive in killing, he had never been in such a mood before, even when facing Xu Zhi before, what he thought in his heart was to tie him completely by his side and never allow betrayal, But after going through so much, he began to doubt whether he was doing the right thing.

In order to escape from him, Xu Zhi did not hesitate to use strong drugs, even if he was pushed to the extreme, he was unwilling to ask for help. What kind of resistance is this?Completely contrary to his original intention, does he really have hope to keep people by his side?

The result has not yet been drawn, but people have already met.

He stood on the opposite side of the prison cell, and sitting inside were the old magic stick and Xu Chi. Xu Chi seemed to be under heavy surveillance, his limbs were tied by iron chains, and he was tied to a lonely wooden post, crying countless tears. He was forced out, and he himself didn't know whether he was unconscious or asleep, only the old god stick and old god sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at Duan Wuliang.

"The younger generation of the Duan family, we meet again." The old god stick said with a smile, his silver hair and Duan Wuliang fought each other, Duan Wuliang looked at him silently, with complicated emotions.

"Ah Chi is too tired and fell asleep. What's the matter?" The old god stick didn't feel locked up at all, but felt that this place was his territory, and Duan Wuliang was here to visit.

Duan Wuliang was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "What happened back then, Wuliang has offended."

The old godstick glanced at the unconscious apprentice with a delicate expression, turned his head and said: "It's not easy for you to be a young man, and the old guy can understand it, but you killed my apprentice, and our two factions I'm afraid we won't be able to live in peace after all."

When Duan Wuliang heard the words "I can also understand", he had already moved to break the lock with his bare hands, and he almost blurted out that we should leave immediately, but the last sentence made him baffled: "Who did I kill?"

The old god stick smiled and said: "Do you think that the Ah Chi you see now is the same Ah Chi when the three of us fought?"

Hearing this, Duan Wuliang immediately looked towards Xu Chi, and because he was chained, Xu Chi faced Duan Wuliang unobstructed, even if he looked left and right, he didn't find anything wrong: "Isn't it!? "

The old god stick smiled subtly, shook his head and said: "Of course not, and who this person is, even the old guy, I can't tell clearly, my son, although you have borne a lot of blame for the emperor and suffered a lot, but in the end It's because you have obsession and greed in your heart, and now the old guy just wants to ask you, what exactly do you want?"

Duan Wuliang's pupils shrank suddenly, and his tall body trembled slightly at these words.

What does he want?At this moment, in front of this old man, he seems to have been seen through, Gui Guyu's wrinkles are unpredictable with his every expression: "My second apprentice Yang Zhengen has been convinced by you, he is the son of your mentor, old guy Guess, tonight, rookies in martial arts will accompany the Southern Border Army to enter the palace, Wudang, Emei, and Baguamen, but?"

The scabbard clanged and smashed to the ground, Duan Wuliang walked forward slowly, his silver hair flowed like a river of stars, and his dark blue eyes quietly watched the old magic stick: "Master of Guigu Sect, I suddenly understand why you never mentioned the matter of relics, The dog emperor will not kill you anymore, you are indeed a god-man."

"The old guy is not a god-man, the old guy just knows you too well." The old god stick smiled and shook his head.

"Even if you only met me once?" Duan Wuliang squinted his eyes, his phalanx holding the long knife turned white, showing the hint of an explosion.

"The old guy has seen you when you were born. Dali's immeasurable mountain is so high that it can't be climbed into the clouds. The vastness and magnificence are hard to measure. The old prince hopes that you will have a heart like a valley and possess immeasurable virtue. This is the origin of your name," the old god stick After finishing speaking, he stretched out his finger from the tattered padded jacket and pointed at Xu Chi, "The fourth relic fragment is in this child's body. He has no grievances or enmities with your Duan family. If you want to fulfill your final wish, you have to kill him."

Duan Wuliang's eyes widened suddenly, he couldn't believe that the old god stick seemed to be familiar with his parents, but this person actually lured him to kill Xu Chi: "Impossible!"

The old god stick narrowed his eyes slightly: "You were born different from others, violated the evil spirits of the world, and clashed with the dragon spirit. The ancestors of the Duan family had long expected that there would be a day when today's descendants would be cut off. The relic is the only way to save you."

"What are you talking nonsense about?!" Duan Wuliang was furious like a leopard whose tail had been stepped on. He originally planned to take the master and apprentice away together, but at this moment he just wanted to kill the two with one knife. The old one told him to shut up.

"Even if you ascend to the throne, the ten-year poison and your original physical defects will completely explode within three years. The emperor wants to use relics to live a long life, don't you think so?" The old god stick shook his head with a half-smile , the more he spoke, the more ugly he sounded, as if he was not afraid of the shining knife in the opponent's hand at all.

Duan Wuliang gripped the weapon tightly, and the veins on his forehead popped out. The old magic stick was right. He originally planned to use relics to change his body and appearance, but now he learned that he was deceived and used by the emperor. He wanted to usurp the throne, but was told that all of these depended on the relics, and the relics could only be obtained by killing A Chi.

"Time is running out, it's only half an hour before Zishi, I'm afraid, the emperor will start to notice it." The old god stick finally put away his look of watching the show, and there was a trace of solemnity between his brows.

Duan Wuliang clenched the iron railing tightly, and asked with a little tremor in his madness: "Can Ah Chi survive?"
