"Life and death have their own destiny. It's better for the emperor to marry a wife and have children earlier than to be so deliberate." With a slight smile, Liang Xuyu raised his hand and knocked on the book case made of sandalwood and said.She glanced at the young man who was kneeling on the ground being suppressed by the Jinwu Guards, and then at Tuobahong who was bound to win, her light blue eyes were dizzy and shimmering like water.

"Hmph! This king doesn't believe in destiny!" Speaking of this, Tuo Bahong felt a nameless anger burning in his heart. Seeing Liang Xuyu's indifferent appearance, he gritted his teeth until his expression was distorted, "Why do you have such an old man?" The Shu family can live a hundred years, but my Tuoba family is noble and noble, but their children and grandchildren will die young?! You know that since you were born, people around you have been told intentionally or unintentionally that you will not live to be 25 years old. Do you want to have fun and prepare for the funeral earlier?! This king is not reconciled!" As he said, he tightly squeezed his fists, and the veins burst out on his hands and face, which was terrifying to watch.

"A mayfly can reach Peng Zu's hundred years in a day, and even a leaf of duckweed can enjoy life. With Brother Huang being so persistent, even if you get endless life, it will be nothing." Shaking his head, Liang Xuyu continued to persuade calmly Looking at Tuoba Hong who was about to go crazy.

"Hehe!" With two sneers, Tuobahong walked quickly to the boy's side, grabbed his hair that was draped over his shoulders, and forced him to look up regardless of his wailing, Tuobahong said gloomyly. Looking at Liang Xuyu, he said with a smile, "Young master, the imperial sister must also recognize him. After all, he grew up with his childhood sweetheart. I heard from this son that the imperial sister almost got engaged to him. It's a pity, brother." Is it disturbing the good things of the imperial sister? As long as the imperial sister is willing to give her life Gu to the imperial brother, the imperial brother will definitely hand over the memorial to the imperial uncle and let the imperial sister marry him, I wonder what the imperial sister will do?"

Liang Xuyu smiled but said nothing, his light blue eyes just looked at Tuobahong fixedly, only to see that the people kneeling on the ground felt guilty and sweating coldly, and the people standing were burning with anger.

"Since the sons of the seventh elders are all in the hands of the emperor, why should the emperor come to blackmail Xuyu?" Liang Xuyu smiled softly, "He is also a member of my clan, and he also has life Gu, why should the emperor look far away? "

It's good that Liang Xuyu didn't mention this, but Tuobahong was furious when he brought it up: Originally, he wanted to kill this kid and take his life Gu, but later an alchemist in his mansion said that Gu Shu I don't know which generation the high priest got the secret technique and cast a spell on the clansman. When the life Gu was planted, the spell was also planted. Some people didn't believe the rumors and tried their own lives. The result was only a few months. It's fine for one person to die by suicide, but it's just that the thugs who killed several ancient Shu people were like this, so it can't help making people feel vigilant.

"As the high priest, how can the emperor not know what's going on?" With a sneer, Tuo Bahong pulled out the saber he was carrying with him, pointed at Liang Xu and said with a smirk, "The emperor If my sister disagrees, Brother Huang will have no choice but to take it himself." As he spoke, he raised his knife and stabbed forward.

The sharp point of the knife pierced the sky, and Tuoba Hong felt a blue light flash in front of his eyes, and then, with a bang, he heard the crisp sound of metal falling to the ground, so there was no need for Tuoba Hong to ask any further questions. The crowd heard a voice that looked like a child whimpering, "Woooo..."

The deer crane bird broke in through the window at some point, with its long horns on its head, and stood in front of Liang Xuyu as a protector, its sea-like deep blue eyes were full of vigilance.Seeing Tuo Bahong's sinister gaze, it groaned twice uneasy, but still stood firmly in front of Liang Xuyu and did not move an inch.

"Hehe, you are the guardian beast of the ancient Shu tribe?" Instead of being angry, Tuobahong smiled, looking at the monster that looked like a crane and a deer in front of him, but the content of his question was Lu He, the person who is questioning is Liang Xuyu who is still indifferent until now, "Sister, can this be regarded as a noble treasure?"

Gently stroking the soft fur of the deer crane bird in front of him to calm its emotions, Liang Xuyu stared at Tuoba Hong with his light blue eyes and said, "Is the deer crane a treasure of my family who wants to come and share with you?" The relationship between the emperor is not too big." Seeing Tuo Bahong's indifferent appearance, she smiled lightly, "Don't forget, the emperor, the current emperor of Zhao Kingdom is still the emperor's uncle, and the emperor led the Jinwu guards to break through without permission. Not to mention my family's privateness, but also murdering Xu Yu and destroying the royal friendship. The imperial brother should not blame the imperial sister for disregarding the relationship between brothers and sisters, but if the imperial brother does not conform to the etiquette in the slightest today, Xu Yu believes that it will not take half an hour Uncle Huang will send troops over here." He continued to smile gently, but even the ignorant deer crane bird could feel the coldness in it, "Brother Huang will get longevity at that time, I'm afraid it will be useless. "

"The emperor's sister is right. Today is the emperor's abruptness. I hope that the emperor will not be offended and forgive the emperor's behavior." Touching his chin, Tuobahong smiled, but the ice in his eyes may have disappeared. There are three feet.He came here today to test Liang Xuyu's bottom line, and to see Liang Xuyu's reaction to the young man he captured. He didn't believe the young man who said he was Xu Yu's fiancé. After all, Liang Xuyu Xu Yu, his nominal imperial sister, usually looks disillusioned, but he just wants to take a gamble.His recent actions are too big, Tuobaji has already guarded against him, even his most beloved emperor aunt has begun to guard against him, so things that are not good for him gather together, so he has to be careful.

Originally, he didn't want to tear himself apart with Tuo Bahong, since he was willing to go down his own slope, there was no reason for him to hold on to it anymore. Liang Xuyu gently touched her round and round eyes Blue eyes looked at the head of his deer crane bird in confusion, and smiled at Tuoba Hong, "Of course Xuyu won't blame the emperor, but the emperor should respect himself."

"That's natural." Tuo Bahong smiled. He looked at the young man who had been kneeling on the ground, and said to Liang Xuyu, "But this person broke into my mansion privately, wounded many guards in my mansion and killed him." A concubine of mine, Huangmei thinks, how should Huangxiong deal with it?"

"Xuyu! Don't listen to his nonsense, I didn't kill anyone at all, he wronged me!" After hearing Tuobahong's words, the young man struggled to defend himself. He wanted to run to Liang Xuyu like crazy, but He was firmly held down by the two guards beside him. "Xuyu! Xuyu trust me!"

Patting the head of the deer, crane and bird in front of him, signaling it to move away, Liang Xuyu walked up to the young man in front of Tuo Bahong's watching eyes, and smiled at the two guards, "Can you two go first?" Let him go? Let's talk for a while?"

The two Jinwu guards looked at Tuobahong in embarrassment, and after receiving the latter's agreeing look, they let go of the boy's collar, "Miss Liang, please."

Smiling slightly, Liang Xuyu looked condescendingly at the young man who was still kneeling on the ground for a long time before sighing, "Do you know that your father has been looking for you?"

"I know." The young man said dejectedly. He was playful, and his father tried to find him with the code words of the ancient Shu people, but he avoided him. Later, he tried to tell his father where he was, but he had no chance.

Kneeling down and looking at him at the same level, Liang Xuyu's eyes showed unbearable, "Do you know how people from the ancient Shu tribe should be punished if they made a mistake?"

"...I know." Although the tortured one couldn't see his face clearly, the young man smiled lightly, and he could still see his original delicate face from the two shallow dimples. He said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't really expect to be redeemed. It's my greatest luck to be able to see you now." Looking at Liang Xuyu's beautiful face, he sighed and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't let others defile you." The reputation and identity of my ancient Shu tribe. When that day comes, I will prepare myself.”

"...your father is proud of you."

"I just hope he doesn't keep my body from going to the ancestral grave."

After saying a few more words, Liang Xuyu stood up, looked at Tuoba Hong and said with a smile, "Brother Huang, no matter what is wrong with him, I hope Brother Huang will forgive you."

"Oh, is the imperial sister asking the imperial brother to let him go?" Tuo Bahong rubbed his chin as if thinking about it, "I don't mean that the imperial brother is narrow-minded, but Xu Yu should know that the imperial brother always has revenge. "

Knowing that he would say that, Liang Xuyu smiled softly, "Since he offended Brother Huang, there is nothing Xu Yu can say about Brother Huang, but please don't torture him like this."

Hearing what she said, Tuo Bahong was taken aback, "Aren't you going to save him?"

Shaking his head, Liang Xuyu lowered his eyes and looked at the person still kneeling on the ground, "It's getting late, Brother Huang, let's go back, if Xuyu predicts well, Uncle Huang will not see you again tomorrow, so he will send troops. "

"Thank you for reminding me, Royal Sister." He knew it was her fault, but he knew it was the same thing, and Tuo Bahong, who couldn't hold back his bad breath, was still very angry, and turned to face the two Jinwu guards angrily. Said, "Are you still stupidly asking me to remind you! If you don't take that prisoner with you, let's go!"

"Yes!" Assented, the two Jinwu guards held the young man firmly behind Tuobahong, and were about to leave.

"Xuyu!" The young man suddenly shouted, and when Liang Xuyu turned his head, he saw the corner of his mouth move slightly, and he mouthed to her, "I-like-like-you."

Liang Xuyu just watched his fascinated eyes and sighed.

She is doomed to be lonely and helpless all her life, so how can she love her?

Finally, the noisy voices of people outside the tent and the roaring of horses gradually subsided, and everything returned to calm.Jiao'er's voice came from outside the tent again, "High Priest, the Seventh Elder is asking to see you."

"En." Agreeing, Liang Xuyu rubbed his forehead wearily, walked to the side of the deer crane bird that was still standing beside the desk, hugged its head and rubbed it lightly, "Let him come in. "

"High Priest, Liang Yaoguang, come and return." The Seventh Elder, Liang Yaoguang, lives up to his name. Even his kneeling figure is straight. Although he is a father, his face is still that of an ordinary 20-year-old man. , This is also the characteristic of the ancient Shu people, as long as they don't lose their life Gu, they will always maintain their youthful appearance.

"The elder has worked hard, so there is no need to be polite." Liang Xuyu got up and walked in front of him, and helped him up, "Did you find Shu Yi?"

"I searched all over the capital and the places where the young master might go, but I didn't find the young master." The seventh elder said angrily, "It's because I didn't do my job well."

"It's not the elder's fault, it's because she's too playful," Liang Xuyu smiled faintly, looked over her writing desk at the turtle bone she used for divination, and said slowly after a long silence, "...when the elder came Can you see Yaoxin?"

Yao Xin is that boy, the son of the Seventh Elder.

"A person who can only ruin the reputation of the clan, what's the difference between seeing and not seeing?" The seventh elder said indifferently, "Besides, Tuo Bahong is treacherous, since he was caught, I'm afraid he won't be able to protect his life Gu. Mistakenly believed his mother's words, and didn't put a mysterious spell on him when he gave him life Gu, now it's free for others, don't you hate it!"

"...that's what I want to talk to the elder about." Liang Xuyu looked at the seventh elder with some apology and said, "Just now, when Tuo Bahong brought Yaoxin here to force me to give him life Gu, I gave him the life Gu. A new dry spell has been cast."

"...The high priest is right." No matter how hard-hearted he is, it is his son after all, and he will still feel distressed when he hears that his son has been cast with the most powerful dry curse of the ancient Shu tribe.

"But like this, Yaoxin won't live for more than two months." Liang Xu was stunned.The reason why the Dry Curse is called the first curse of the ancient Shu clan is because although this spell can make the life of the life-snatching Gu worse than death, it will also shorten the life of the ancient Shu clan, so unless it is absolutely necessary, the high priests of all dynasties are forbidden. of.

"It's all about death anyway, but it's the difference between early death and late death." The seventh elder smiled and said to Liang Xuyu, "The high priest doesn't need to worry about it. This is his destiny. Take care too, Fluctlight will continue to search for the whereabouts of the young master, as long as you find her, you will definitely bring her back."

"I'm sorry to trouble the Seventh Elder." Liang Xuyu smiled softly.

"Then please forgive me and leave."

"...Elder Seven, take care."

The curtain of the tent was raised and then lowered. Liang Xuyu walked to the desk and sat down. The deer and bird coquettishly rubbed its head towards her. Liang Xuyu gently stroked its head and smiled, "Luhe, In the end, we are still dependent on each other." Those who should go will go, those who should stay will not stay, and in the end, she is the only one left.

Holding the deer crane bird's soft round head, Liang Xuyu suddenly remembered what Huanggu said to her at the end of the Dragon Boat Festival.

"I want you, love and love."

She slowly closed her light blue eyes.
