Kaolin Flower Raiders Guide

After a sudden pause, Xie Shenyan moved his eyelids slightly, and his rough voice approached softly, and said gently: "It's time, it's the seventh day of the eighth month, it's a pity that you're sick like this, and the birthday party can't be held. .”

Lu Xiao suddenly realized that Enke was originally opened for Emperor Yunkang's [-]th birthday, and then a series of miscellaneous things happened. The Ministry of Rites put aside the birthday banquet in August at some point, and no one mentioned it during the period.

The carved wooden door opened with a creak, and a pair of trembling legs appeared slowly on the threshold. Looking up, the wrinkled hands were tremblingly holding a white porcelain tray, and a bowl of longevity noodles was steaming, covering the The face of the visitor.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, this old slave is here to serve you."

The old voice revealed his identity. The white porcelain tray fell on the square table.

Cao Fuzhong said he came to serve Emperor Yunkang, but in fact he bent down and knelt behind Xie Shenyan after putting down the jade bowl.

Xie Shenyan clapped his hands, and a mass of live flesh rolled in with a thud, shaking the ground under his feet.Liu Heng, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, swallowed his saliva, swallowing the pain that hit his flesh back into his stomach.

Emperor Yunkang held his breath, struggled for a long time but couldn't turn over, Lu Xiao looked at him and said, "It's Master Liu from the Ministry of Rites."

Xie Shenyan walked quickly to Lu Xiao's side, quietly admiring the terrified face of Emperor Yunkang, and said with a smile, "King Yu, are you familiar with this scene?"

King Yu was the title of Emperor Yunkang before he ascended the throne.Due to the mediocrity of the eldest son, the first emperor did not establish an heir for a long time, and he was unwilling to hand over the country to the mediocre. The other princes showed their magical powers and fought to the death.

The eldest son is mediocre, and the second son is a compatriot with his mother, who is also useless.The third son Yu Wang usually does not show the mountains and dew the water, but in fact he is scheming.The fourth son respects the king and is quite favored. He resembles the late emperor and is truly brave and good at fighting.On the surface, the five sons are attached to the eldest son, but secretly they are also planning.The six sons are still young, less than ten years old, hiding in the arms of their mother and concubine to watch these brothers fight.

The frontier war was tense, and the fourth son, King Jing, led the troops and almost died outside the customs. After King Jing returned triumphantly, he was rewarded by the late emperor, and he was in the limelight for a while.At that time, the power of the son-in-law was gone, but King Jing had no intention of seizing the son-in-law, so he asked himself to guard the frontier. Back then, the late emperor had some wonderful hands to recuperate his body, and he insisted on holding on for a while, and the choice of the heir was even more confusing.

The good times don't last long, the sage can barely extend his life, but he can't prolong his life.The first emperor was critically ill, King Jing hurried back to Chang'an, and the imperial decree had already been promulgated, and the veterans in the court saw it with their own eyes, and it was indeed affixed with a jade seal, confirming that the third son, King Yu, would succeed him.

Xie Shenyan personally untied Liu Heng's hands, tied his legs tightly to the table legs, and sat stiffly in front of the table.Cao Fuzhong's knees were so weak that he could hardly even kneel, and the jade seal, which was quite heavy, was thrown into his arms from mid-air.

"King Yu, still can't remember?"

Emperor Yun Kang could no longer deceive himself and others, sobbing nonsense, a line of blood and tears flowed from his sunken eye sockets.

"Is there still one person missing?" Xie Shenyan was unmoved, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and continued: "If Doctor Lin didn't have medical skills, how could he survive after witnessing your ugly face? It's a pity that the deceased It's over, I can't bring the real doctor Lin. But it doesn't matter, someone will take his place and come to see you for the last time."

"enough."

Lu Xiao stopped him in a cold voice, looked down at the dying emperor on the couch, and said: "Everything may not always go according to people's wishes. My father saved him. The only way for you to die is to kill him. So many people, do you still remember this trivial matter of the Lin family? He has been planning for so many years, and at the end he pulled me into the game. After I knew my life, I met you three times. Hatred is hard to reach the sky.

I always think, you are dying, even if I beat the dog in the water, I will not get a trace of revenge.This made me very confused, until today I suddenly figured it out.Now, I just want to ask you one last question. To this day, do you still insist that you did not kill anyone by mistake? "

The trembling old man closed his eyes in pain, refusing to answer his words.

The emperor's heart is full of desires, and no one can guess what he is thinking at the moment, whether it is regret or resentment, sadness or numbness.

Xie Shenyan sneered, turned around and stood in front of the table, pulled out a pen with his pale fingers, and handed it to Liu Heng: "What about you? Do you remember what you wrote here 26 years ago?"

A thin but extremely oppressive figure fell in front of him, Liu Heng's teeth were trembling, his hands were pressing the jade scroll, and the brocade embroidered with auspicious clouds and cranes slowly appeared in full view.His whole body was already drenched with sweat, Liu Heng took the Langhao pen, and picked up the pen to stain the clean ocher silk cloth with ink marks.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said, I have been suffering from illness for a long time, and I have been cautious all night. I have established a Yuan Chu, but I have never served the illness. I am disrespectful and disrespectful, which violates the ancestral system. The government should not be idle for a long time. The eldest son is cautious, talented, intelligent, and respectful. Good and humble, respect and obey filial piety, supervise the state, and hereby confer the book of treasures, record the ceremony, and obey the public opinion. I would like to inform the world, the ancestral temple, and the community. Announce it to the world, and I will first hear about it. On the seventh day of August in the 26th year of Yunkang."

Cao Fuzhong knelt down and stamped the jade seal on the corner of the imperial decree. Emperor Yunkang had difficulty getting up, Xie Shenyan stood in front of the bed with a smile, holding the imperial decree and read it out for him.

"Do you think I will do the same to you?" Xie Shenyan's expression changed drastically, and he tore the brocade silk in his palm suddenly, and scattered a few pieces of silk on the thin blanket, making the whole place miserable.

Xie Shenyan's smile was a little distorted: "Your precious son won't be coming back for the time being, and the courtiers will definitely invite me to be regent in the next few days at the latest, and I would like to thank him for his tiger charm, so that I can sit on that chair with a proper name The day when it is done is when he returns, and he must have felt bad seeing the collapse of the building."

Emperor Yunkang was like a dying fish, exhaling with his mouth wide open, while the hoarse voice was still chattering incessantly.

"The crown prince who disappeared for many days brought a group of people back. If he brings troops into the palace then, it will be... treason." Xie Shenyan said cheerfully: "Say, should I spare his life?"

Lu Xiao's expression was tense, but Emperor Yunkang had already passed out at this time.

Xie Shenyan clicked his tongue, turned to Lu Xiao and said, "How boring."

Lu Xiao's mind was in a mess, and he still hadn't forgotten the purpose of his trip to the palace: "The grievances and grievances in the past are about to end, and all those who have enemies with you will get their retribution, and it is just around the corner to take control of Ning Huai. Ning Huai has always been naive. It's useless, let him go."

"How do you know that I regard him as a hostage, not someone else?"

A person slowly walked out from behind the bead curtain, Xie Shenyan raised his eyes and said, "Little uncle, you can talk to him."

Lu Xiao's tense emotions suddenly poured out, she stood silently on the spot, and swallowed back with a "brother".At this moment, he was still thinking, if he called brother, Xie Shenyan would suffer a lot.

On a desolate summer night, Wen Su invisibly separated a distance from him, stopped a foot away, and said softly: "Xiao'er, I seem to have done another thing to make you sad."

Lu Xiao frowned, and the next moment her eyes were covered, her vision was pitch black, only Wen Su's cold voice was talking to him.

"You haven't come back for a long time. The boy of the Qi family prepared a carriage outside the palace to wait, so I caught him. If you want to meet him, it's okay. My goal is not him, as long as Qi Ce has a love for his son." Heart, I will wait in this palace to catch the turtle in the urn."

After a long journey, Lu Xiao was completely helpless under his command, so she was blindfolded and sent to a dark prison in the palace.Walking down several steps and sitting on the dry grass, the crisp sound of chains binding the black iron fence has nowhere to hide in the night.

"Qi Zhiyu..."

Lu Xiao's hands and feet were all bound, and she crawled on the ground with some strength from her elbows, calling Qi Jiansi's name over and over again, until the warm touch came and a familiar voice sounded.

"It's very noisy, stop shouting."

Lu Xiao suddenly became angry: "Didn't I tell you not to come to me!"

No one bound Qi Jiansi's hands and feet. He was awakened by Lu Xiao's soul-screaming cry in a daze. He dragged him over in the dark, and untied the black cloth covering his eyes and the hemp rope that was in the way.

Lu Xiaoyu was still angry, and thought to him: "...It's fine now, you and I are trapped in this dark prison, Ning Huai failed to rescue him, and even folded himself in."

Qi Jiansi pressed the back of his head and said in a low voice, "What do you think, are you going to divorce me again?"

"..." Lu Xiao was short of breath, turned her face away and remained silent.

"You and I haven't returned all night. What I'm most worried about now is my father. He will definitely go to the palace to fight against the two of them."

Lu Xiao shook her head, nodded and said, "Yes!"

He conveyed to Qi Jiansi everything he had seen and heard after entering the palace. After listening, Qi Jiansi frowned, but he seemed relieved: "Don't worry, Ning Huai will not be in danger for the time being. You and I It should be the same as him, but I don't know what they plan to do next, lock up father, or..."

Lu Xiao interrupted him: "It's okay, uncle will be fine. Wen Su has always insisted that uncle ignored black and white and copied the Hou's mansion. I have only been with uncle for a few months. Don't you know yourself when you spend time with his father and son?" What kind of person is your father?"

He almost wanted to ask Qi Ce what happened back then, but he couldn't open his mouth, and threw the problem to Qi Jiansi, but Qi Jiansi also returned in defeat.

Qi Ce is wholeheartedly unwilling to make him and the two worry too much, and when meeting Xie and Wen, even if it is not for his own sake, he will also consider Qi Jiansi's safety, and the truth of what happened back then will surely come to light.

The arms around him tightened, and Qi Jiansi said softly, "I hope the dawn will come sooner."

There was a heavy rain outside, tick-tock-tat-tat, wetting the sycamore leaves, and when the sky broke, the pouring was still unabated.

The dungeon was dark and the walls were extremely damp. Lu Xiao yawned, touched the wall and asked, "Is it raining?"

The two of them didn't close their eyes all night, Qi Jiansi was fine, Lu Xiao stood in the hall for a long time at first, but now she was so sleepy that her eyelids were clenched.Qi Jiansi supported the back of his neck, making him lie comfortably in his arms, and said, "It should be."

Lu Xiao tried her best not to let herself fall asleep, and said a lot of things over and over again, until she couldn't understand what she said in the end.

"You were much cuter when you were a child than you are now, but now you only torment me..."

"Really, then how do I remember that someone wiped away tears and wanted to marry me?"

Lu Xiao blocked his mouth with all her teeth and claws. It was Mrs. Qi who shook off this matter.When he was a child, A Niang took him by the hand to go to Qi Mansion, and the second daughter Shen Xue teased Xiao Lin Zhuoyu, who loved to cry, in the back house of Qi Mansion.Qi Jiansi was almost six years old at that time, Mrs. Qi sent Mrs. Xing to call him, and asked him to come and play with her younger brother.Qi Jiansi was mostly in the academy at that time, but he had seen Lu Xiao before, but it was only when he was younger.

Qi Jiansi, who didn't want to coax children, reluctantly came out of the room, and a small dumpling carved in powder and jade threw himself into his arms.Mr. Qi, who had always had a cold face since he was a child, was stunned. He looked down at the child's puffy cheeks, neither pushing it away nor hugging him. The next moment he heard Lu Xiao's milky voice: "Sister Qi, you She's so pretty, will you marry Xiaoyu in the future?"

Xue Wu and Mrs. Qi laughed so hard that Xue Wu came over and separated the two children, hugged Lu Xiao in his arms and said, "Xiaoyu, this is brother, he can't marry you."

Qi Jiansi's little face was flushed, and he wondered if he was too angry to speak.

Lu Xiao didn't understand at first, so she kept asking for a long time why she couldn't marry her pretty brother, and finally burst into tears, her tears wet Aniang's skirt, sobbing, "My brother can't marry Xiaoyu, so Xiaoyu can marry you?" Brother will be fine!"

Mrs. Qi didn't know that the two of them had already been secretive about Chen Cang, and she smiled and talked about funny things about her childhood, which made Lu Xiao blush now.

Suddenly a ray of light entered the dungeon, and Lu Xiao squinted her eyes and straightened up.

Ning Huai's clear voice became a line, and he called out in a low voice, "Ah Xiao, are you here?"
