Chapter 40 40. The Heart Belongs

Rui'er stood by the window, looking at the heavy snow that was flying all over the sky, and couldn't help thinking of the blizzard that was raging in front of Ziwei Palace.That day, countless demons and monsters opened their fangs in the snowstorm and devoured Zhou Ji alive, but Rui'er was helpless.Once again, the coldness in Reincarnation Lake washed away all the connections between Rui'er and Zhou Ji, leaving only one name alive.

"Er Xiao Yazi, the sharp sword for me, his momentum is unstoppable."

The young man's solemn oath is still vivid in his ears, but he has become a lonely bone in the imperial mausoleum, only a little blood, and a sharp sword that is not sharp.

"Jiazi?" Rui'er clenched the sword around his waist, "How can there be such a Yazi? Your Highness, Rui'er is not worthy of this name."

In the midst of sorrow and self-pity, I suddenly heard the door behind me, and hurriedly turned around, only to see Liu Ya, Xiyuan's maidservant, pushing open the door of the inner room, walking out and saying, "Tell me, my lord is dressed like this." That's great, but Lord Weng doesn't believe it, so I insist on letting you take a look." Liu Ya let go of Xi Yuan behind her, "Ruier, can you tell me if it looks good or not?"

For a moment, Rui'er seemed to have returned to the bank of Reincarnation Lake.That young man with gentle brows and eyes was not at all annoyed at being looked at so abruptly by him, and even smiled at him, but this smile was too weak.Rui'er came back to her senses, only to realize that Xi Yuan was in front of her, wearing the brocade clothes ordered by the Lord Weng. The solemn and solemn color carried a sense of royal majesty, and without the hair ornaments with silk flowers and emerald greens, she looked dignified and elegant, which complemented Xi Yuan. Yuan's whole person became a lot more energetic.

"It's beautiful." Rui'er praised sincerely, "Master Weng suddenly becomes an adult when dressed like this."

"I'll just say yes." Liu Ya smiled, "Although the Lord is not as charming as those young ladies, the beauty is that he is calm and quiet, the more elegant the dress, the more suitable it is for the Lord."

"Is this the Lord Weng's court makeup instrument?" Ruier asked.

Xi Yuan nodded shyly, and said embarrassingly: "Liu Ya insists on making me dress like this, I don't know if it looks good."

"It looks good." Rui'er affirmed again, "I will go tomorrow, and I will definitely be able to compare with the daughters of the prince's family."

When Xiyuan heard this, Fang breathed out a sigh of relief, and smiled at Rui'er.That gentle smile is exactly the replica of Zhou Ji, who seems to be comforting Rui'er's helplessness, and said with a smile, "Don't make things difficult."

"Damn Yan Ling!" Hatred rose in Rui'er's heart.

Early in the morning of the next day, the heavy snow had stopped, and the warm sun was shining brightly, reflecting the entire snow-covered city shining brightly.The royal family, princes and ministers, civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty all went to the Four Elephant Hall to congratulate Emperor Wuxing on his fiftieth birthday.

As soon as Rui'er helped Xi Yuan out of the car, she saw the carriage with the word "Xun" on it parked aside.Rui'er silently said "Please only Princess Xun" in her heart, but she saw Zhou Ji riding a horse and turning out from behind the carriage, and happened to meet Rui'er's eyes.

Rui'er couldn't help it, and let Xi Yuan take half a step back and stood aside.Xi Yuan was also a little flustered when she saw Zhou Kai, but after all, she was no longer a child of a certain age, so she calmed down and waited for Zhou Kai to approach, then bowed and said in a low voice, "Feng Chuan has seen Uncle."

"Morning." Zhou Ji smiled at Xiyuan with a good temper, "Long time no see, Xiyuan has grown taller again."

"Thank you, Uncle Xie for your compliment." Xi Yuan was a little overwhelmed by Zhou Kai's anomaly, and forgot what to say next, and stood in the snow, shivering a little because of the cold or fear.

"Is it cold?" Zhou Yu noticed Xi Yuan's strangeness, stretched out his hand to touch Xi Yuan's lamb fur, and blamed Rui'er, "Why did you only wear this one? Weng Master is young and a woman, so I don't care about it." Tolerant to the cold, and it’s extremely cold today, if you get sick from the cold, how much money do you have to pay? How careless a subordinate is!”

Rui'er knelt down immediately when he heard the words, bowed his head and said: "King Xun taught you the lesson, it's Rui'er's dereliction of duty."

Zhou Yu snorted coldly in disgust, and slandered, "It doesn't hurt people so much, where is it?" He actually took off the sable fur on his body, wrapped Xi Yuan tightly involuntarily, and ordered: " Take it off when you enter the hall, remember?"

Xi Yuan nodded blankly like a conditioned reflex, then suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly bowed to thank him: "Thank you uncle for your concern."

But Zhou Yu didn't stop his inexplicable concern. He even took out a piece of candy from his pocket, stuffed it into Xiyuan's hand, and said softly: "The ceremony of Chaohe will be held for a long time. If you’re hungry, eat candy secretly.”

Xi Yuan was completely dumbfounded, holding the candy and didn't know what to do. Fortunately, after Zhou Yu showed his kindness, he walked into the palace with his hands behind his back. It seemed that he was in a good mood.

Rui'er couldn't resist the wonder in her heart, so she snorted and called to Mu Hui who was behind Zhou Kai to ask, but she saw Mu Hui send a look of "don't ask me, I don't know".Rui'er had no choice but to give up and trim Zhou Yu's sable fur for Xi Yuan, and entered the palace protecting Xi Yuan.

All nations come to celebrate the emperor's birthday.The princes and princes of various fiefdoms presented rare treasures in turn, and the princes and important officials were not to be outdone, showing their loyalty and flattering, hearing Zhou Yu's nausea, seeing Emperor Wuxing's benevolent and benevolent appearance, they couldn't help it I felt admiration for him, thinking that to be an emperor really needs to have two brushes. After listening to such embarrassing words all morning, I can still sit still. It's amazing.Just when the same boring process made Zhou Yu a little unbearable, and when he wanted to be a demon, a group of people aroused Zhou Ji's interest.

The visitors looked as if they came from an extremely cold place, all of them were big and thick, extremely strong, and they walked in with neat steps, as if they could feel the slight tremor of the ground.The leader is a young man in his 20s, with a medium build, medium fat and thin, wearing a well-fitting brocade suit, his hair was not tied up according to Zhou You's etiquette, and he only combed it in one place according to the customs of the foreign race, hanging behind his head.The appearance is also quite cold, with a slightly wider face, slender red phoenix eyes and thick eyebrows, which are a little out of place.

"This king is not boasting." Zhou Yu couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, "In terms of Danfengyan, no one looks better than my little fool."

The young man would never know that his Danfeng eyes were once disliked by King Xun. With a decent smile on his face, he walked up to the seat of Emperor Wu Xing and said loudly: "Northern Mowo Shitaibu Hu Yeyihe Zhouyou The emperor's birthday, may your majesty live in peace and happiness, and live happily ever after."

"Beimowo Shitai Department?" Emperor Wu Xing was a little surprised, "Where is it?"

"Return to Father Emperor." Zhou Yu replied, "After the victory of Fengchuan in Wuxing in 18 years, the remaining seven remnants of Beimo retreated to the area of ​​Ana Mountain, and now they have merged into Woshitai. Mr. Yeyi is exactly The son of the leader of the Woshitai Department."

"It turned out to be the Queen of the Northern Man." Emperor Wu Xing's tone was full of disdain.

Hu Yeyi's complexion suddenly became unsightly. Zhou Xin, who was standing aside, couldn't tolerate Zhou Chu being in the limelight alone. Seeing Emperor Wuxing's unhappy expression, he hurriedly came out to smooth things over: "Report to Father, Yi Erchen Look, even the Mo people in the far north know about Father's birthday, and they traveled thousands of miles to celebrate his birthday, which is a demonstration of Father's imperial power to the nine states and all over the world."

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Kai couldn't hold back and burst out laughing, which immediately changed Zhou Xin's sharp eyes, and Emperor Wu Xing's slightly annoyed eyes.Zhou Yu was not afraid at all, and gave Zhou Xin a look of "I can't get used to you", and met Emperor Wu Xing's eyes again.Seeing that Emperor Wu Xing's expression was beginning to look unkind, Zhou Ji first withdrew his gaze, pursed his thin lips and bowed his head to stand still, but he didn't do anything or say anything.Unbelievably, Emperor Wu Xing breathed a sigh of relief inwardly before turning to Zhou Xin and giving him a smile of approval: "Xin'er's words are reasonable, I have worked so hard to come to congratulate you, and Xin'er thank you on my behalf."

"Yes." Zhou Xin was praised by Emperor Wu Xing, thanked Hu Yeyi happily, and ordered the servants to lead Hu Yeyi to the side hall to rest.

Zhou Chu saw all this in his eyes, but was secretly surprised in his heart.If one didn't pay attention, Zhou Laoqi, the great demon king of the world, was so generous that even his father wanted to give him three points. I really don't understand why his father spoils him so much.And my younger brother, who was born to a single mother, is not only good at seeing the needles and seeing the wind, but now he is also very good at guessing the subtle thoughts of the father.Yes, yes, yes, it's really scary.

While complaining, I heard Zhou Yu's very "timely" complaint: "Third brother, look at this brat, he doesn't learn serious things all day long, but his ability to flatter horses is improving quickly, you have to take care of it."

"The eighth brother has his father to teach him, so where is my turn to teach?"

"That's not what I said. Now the third brother is the longest among the brothers, so naturally he should teach the younger brothers. It turns out that when the eldest brother was here, he taught us a lot, right?"

"Yes, but the eldest brother is both civil and military, and I can't compare it." Now Zhou Chu, who is calm even in the wind and waves, smiled lightly and pushed back, "I think the seventh brother has the legacy of the elder brother, it's still you Tell me more about your brothers."

"Hehe, I don't want it." Zhou Ji smiled, even his refusal was in his usual style, "I don't have that much time to spare."

Zhou Xin sat a little far away, and seeing Zhou Yu and Zhou Kai chatting and laughing very affectionately, he was a little unhappy at once, so he hurried over and asked in a daze, "What are you talking about, third brother and seventh brother?"

Zhou Chu didn't want to talk to him, turned his head and didn't speak, showing a disgusted expression.When Zhou Xin saw it, he didn't say anything on the surface, but secretly remembered it in his heart.Looking at the subtle expressions of the two of them, Zhou Yu couldn't hold back his desire to be a demon all morning. He leaned into Zhou Xin's ear and whispered, "I'm asking third brother for advice."

"What do you want to ask?" Zhou Xin had a good intention, and he really took the bait.

"Ask him what it's like to be a half-demon." Zhou Ji said maliciously, "You also know that Bai Nai of his family often follows, with that appearance and figure, right?"

"Yes." Zhou Xin nodded hurriedly, his saliva was about to flow out, "It is indeed one in a million. If you can kiss Fangze, you will die without regret."

Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xinyi's nasty look at Bainai, and was so disgusted that he wanted to hit someone on the spot. After finally holding back, he heard Zhou Yu make up his sword: "Third brother is a good fortune, besides Bainai, there is also Ruier , and he’s also unbelievably handsome.” Zhou Ji asked Zhou Chu, “Is it more ecstasy?”

"I haven't tried it." Zhou Chu stabbed back with a hidden knife in his smile, "I'm different from you in that I'm not interested in men."

Zhou Xin could hear the sexiness in the words, and he became more energetic, waiting to see how Zhou Yu would fight back, but Zhou Yu said calmly: "That's right, but don't worry, third brother, I don't care about Rui'er either." interest."

Zhou Xin grasped the topic keenly, and hurriedly asked: "Then who is Seventh Brother interested in?"

Zhou Yu smiled inscrutablely and did not answer, but a silly face with red phoenix eyes appeared in his heart.For the first time, Zhou Yu felt that with a silly face, Dan Fengyan seemed to look better.
