match made in heaven

Yan Guizhi and the others came to the square. The square was wide, with hundreds of tables lined the aisle, and the waiters stood beside the tables, and the courtiers passed flowers to and fro. On the periphery of the square, soldiers in light armor, armed with knives and guns, stood solemnly. There is a round platform in the center, with twelve musicians playing, and the dancer Caishang Yuyi dances on it.

The courtiers came one after another and greeted each other, which was very lively.Jiuyang took Yan Guizhi to see Hao Tingjun, and many courtiers came to salute on the way, which delayed for a while.

When he got to the front seat, Hao Tingjun saw several people coming, he quickly waved to Jiuyang, and said: "Jiuyang, come here, come here, father is thinking of you, so you are here."

Hao Tingjun got up and got down from his seat, Jiuyang went to him and bowed before him, saying: "Father Emperor."

Hao Tingjun lifted him up, looked behind Jiuyang, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Jiuyang, this is..."

Seeing Hao Tingjun pointing his hand at Yan Guizhi, Jiuyang said, "Father, this is Master Xuanshu, my minister. His injuries have improved a few days ago and he has returned to his original appearance. My minister specially invited Master Xuanshu to share the festive season."

Yan Gui bowed forward and said, "Your Majesty, you are being polite."

Hao Tingjun's eyes were glued to Yan Guizhi's body, his eyes brightened, he said with a smile: "It turns out that he is the Taoist priest. Gu had seen the Taoist priest's good looks before, and now he really is, the appearance of a heavenly man!"

Yan Guizhi just smiled, and said flatly: "Your Majesty has praised you absurdly. A person who cultivates immortals is nothing more than four words of indifference and integrity."

Hao Tingjun still smiled and said: "The Taoist priest is self-effacing. It is rare in the world to look like a Taoist priest. Looking at the world, it is difficult to find someone who is as 'indifferent and peaceful' as a Taoist priest."

Jiuyang raised his eyebrows, and before Yan Duruo got angry, he saluted Hao Tingjun and said, "Father, it's getting late, please take your seat, uncle."

Hao Tingjun looked at Yan Guizhi for a few more times, and said: "The Taoist priest will be at the same table with Jiuyang, and I just want to ask the Taoist priest for advice on self-cultivation."

The palace servants led a few people down, Jiuyang was on the left, and Yan Duruo and Yuehao were at the next table.

Jiuyang and Yan Guizhi sat together, and after Yan Duruo sat down, Yuehao habitually stood aside, and was also pulled by Yan Duruo to sit down.

Yan Duruo drank a glass of wine, gouged out Hao Tingjun's eyes, and said, "Only he dares to make a portrait of my seventh sister!"

If it wasn't in the human world, they still have something to do, if someone is so obsessed with sex, staring at her seventh sister naked, she would have beaten him up long ago.

Yan Duruo slammed the glass on the table, Yue Hao poured the wine for her, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, please keep your voice down."

Yan Duruo said: "You don't piss to take care of yourself, what kind of virtue!"

Yue Hao said: "Yes! Yes! Yes! In this world, only the madam is worthy of being the patriarch! This Tianshu Monarch is overestimated, so shameless!"

Jiuyang felt ashamed, poured a glass of wine, stood up, and made a toast to Yan Guizhi to make amends.Yan Guizhi also got up, lifted Jiuyang's hands with one hand, let her stand up, and said: "Princess, what is the meaning of this."

Jiuyang looked at Yan Guizhi apologetically, and said, "Father was rude just now, and Jiuyang made amends on his behalf."

Yan Guizhi said: "Everyone is watching, the princess's body is a thousand pieces of gold, how can you worship me."

Jiuyang pursed his lips, and said: "Outside, Xianzun is my uncle in name, so naturally he can afford it."

Yan Guizhi took the wine cup and said, "Okay, princess sit down."

Just as the two of them sat down, Jiuyang poured wine for Yan Guizhi again, handed it to Yan Guizhi, and said, "This cup is still Jiuyang's respect for the Immortal Venerable, and since the Immortal Venerable made a move, the proverbs warned the father, the father is no longer It seems that in the past, I lingered in the harem, ignoring the government affairs. The palace is clean and pure, all relying on the immortals."

Yan Guizhi didn't refuse, took the cup and drank it, glanced at Hao Tingjun, saw that he was squinting his eyes and looked this way, and said: "I see that the purple aura on your father's body is indeed stronger than before. Unstable, need more supervision from the princess."

"Yes."

Jiuyang poured another cup, and handed it to Yan Guizhi, but Yan Guizhi didn't pick it up, but looked at Jiuyang with soft eyebrows and eyes, and said with a smile: "Princess is going to keep me drunk."

Jiuyang heard the words, her face was reddish, she held her head, and she didn't dare to look at Yan Guizhi for a moment, she said: "The disciple just doesn't know how to thank Xianzun, that's why..."

Yan Guizhi clasped the cup with her slender fingers, and took the wine cup from Jiuyang's hand, she said: "Princess, I still say the same thing."

Yan Guizhi looked away, with a soft voice, she said: "A king, don't trust her."

Jiuyang put her hands on her lap, curled up slightly, and stopped saying that she would not be an emperor.

A long time ago, Si Tianjian reported to her that she was destined to move Ziwei in the palace. Although she devoted herself to cultivating Taoism, she also knew that her fate was hard to reverse.

Jiuyang said: "Jiuyang will remember what the immortal said."

At this time, the courtiers had almost arrived, except for the few remaining generals who guarded the border. It was getting late, and the palace servants had already gone down to light the lamps.

Yan Guizhi asked Jiuyang, "Princess, are you sure which members will come?"

Jiuyang said: "This matter was informed by the emperor, it should be true."

Just as he was talking, a white light from the south rushed into the square. The courtiers all bowed their heads to drink and admire the flowers, but they didn't notice it. Yan Gui was stunned and looked at him.

The white light came in a hurry, and before it landed, the gatekeeper stopped him. The white light had to land at the side door, and it appeared that it was Yan Qiongjiu who had rushed back from the demon world. She was holding a scroll of paintings in her hand. The immortal will salute.

The two immortals met Yan Qiongjiu and knew that she was with the sage and immortal, so they asked, "Did your Highness come to look for the immortal?"

Yan Qiongjiu nodded.

The immortal general said: "Your Highness, don't hide in the past, it's better to show up and look for the immortal, so as not to disturb the holy car."

Yan Qiongjiu nodded, bowed to the two, and walked into the square.

Yan Guizhi had known about Jiuyang earlier, and Jiuyang sent the palace servants to bring Yan Qiongjiu into the arena from the side.

And when Yan Qiongjiu arrived, several border guards also arrived, a group of four, wearing light armor, still covered with masks, with a mighty aura, walking from the red carpet, the dancer and musician stepped aside, and the four saluted Hao Tingjun on the stage .

Hao Tingjun's face was joyful, and he said: "The generals let Gu wait."

The leader said humanely: "I am late, Your Majesty forgive me."

Hao Tingjun laughed and said, "Punishment! Drink three cups! Generals, hurry up and take your seats!"

Several people answered "Yes!" and entered their seats. They were seated on the right, facing Jiuyang.

Yan Guizhi looked around for a few times, but he couldn't see Chong Yan's person. When he looked at the ghost-masked man, the ghost-masked man lightly raised his wine glass and made a toast to Yan Guizhi.

Tomorrow, as the sun sets, the cumulus clouds burning in the sky are red, the sky is getting darker, and the breeze is picking up. A group of palace people carry lanterns and enter through the main entrance, only a dozen steps away from Yan Qiongjiu in front.

Yan Qiongjiu stopped abruptly, and looked sideways at the palace lantern in the palace man's hand.The three of Yan Guizhi who were sitting in front also had their expressions darkened. They looked around and finally locked their eyes firmly on these palace lanterns.

Seeing that the breath of the three people was not right, Jiuyang came to see Yan Guizhi, and saw her expressionless face and deep eyes, like thunder clouds brewing in the sky before a heavy rain, Jiuyang said worriedly: "Sir, what's wrong?"

Yan Guizhi didn't speak.Yan Duruo gritted her teeth and said, "Isn't it right?" Yan Duruo's eyes were red, and she crushed the wine glass quickly. She glanced at Hao Tingjun, and said through gnashing teeth, "You Tianshu have kindness!"

Jiuyang was confused, and said: "Why did your Highness say that?"

The palace people held lamps everywhere, and put the lamps on the tables of the ministers. There were also two lamps on Jiuyang's table.

Seeing Yan Guizhi looking at the lamp, Jiuyang felt the blue veins on his forehead twitch. She heard Yan Guizhi say, "Princess, do you think this candle smells so fragrant that it lingers in your heart and will last for a long time?"

Jiuyang just didn't pay attention, but now that Yan Guizhi said this, it was true, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"Princess, do you know that the candle in this lamp is called the Shark Candle? The princess smells the fragrance and it lasts forever, but when we smell it, it is full of blood and sorrow!" Yan Guizhi's voice was flat, without a trace of emotion, But it was like a huge boulder was pressing on his heart.

Jiuyang was startled, and hurriedly bowed: "Jiuyang doesn't know! Jiuyang doesn't know how there is such a thing in the palace!"

Jiuyang was surprised for a moment, didn't hold back his voice, and hurriedly stood up to salute Yan Guizhi, which attracted the courtiers to look at him.

Hao Tingjun said: "Jiuyang, what's wrong?"

Jiuyang ordered the palace man to put out the candles, but the palace man hesitated, so Jiuyang removed the lampshade by himself, and extinguished the candle with a cup.

He walked out from behind the table and said to Hao Tingjun, "Where did father get these candles?"

Hao Tingjun said: "Of course it is from the palace, why did the emperor ask this question?"

Jiuyang made a sound, and said, "Father, you know that this candle is a shark candle!"

"Burning the merman candles hurts the law of nature and destroys benevolence and righteousness. I also ask my father to quickly extinguish the candles in the palace and replace them with ordinary golden candles!"

The courtiers on the side were shocked, and someone came out and said, "Is what the princess said true?! Merren Candles were all buried a hundred years ago according to solemn rituals. How could there be Merren Candles in the palace?"

Jiuyang said: "How could His Highness make fun of this matter?"

Jiuyang said to Hao Tingjun: "Father! Please quickly remove the candles in the palace!"

Hao Tingjun waved his hand and said: "What's the matter with Gu, Jiuyang is too worried, there are no mermaid candles in the palace, and the sky is dark now, if you want to change it again, it will be very inconvenient, so let's just forget about it."

Jiuyang said: "Father, this matter is no small matter, Father should not be taken lightly!"

Someone reconsidered and said: "Your Majesty, it is better to believe that there is something than nothing. This candle has a strange fragrance and is very bright. It is not expected to be ordinary. If it is really a shark candle, it may be used to damage your majesty's holiness."

A few more ministers reconsidered, Hao Tingjun was a little impatient, and then Yan Guizhi walked out, and said bluntly to Hao Tingjun: "Your Majesty, the ancestors of Tianshu were cruel and heartless, and they did a lot of crimes. They hunted and killed the mermaids and angered the Six Realms. As a punishment from heaven, the ancestor of Tianshu died unexpectedly, and none of the ministers who participated in it were spared! The mermaid tribe was born in Beihai, next to the dragon clan in the fairy world, and they are creatures of the demon world. They were protected by the demon world and the fairy world. , will surely incur the wrath of the two worlds, and at that time, Tianshu will not survive!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the ministers were in an uproar, and they went up for discussion one after another.

Hao Tingjun was very angry, he slapped the table and said, "It's done!"

Everyone silenced, Hao Tingjun said: "So what if it is a mermaid candle, this mermaid candle is not made alone! And as the king of a country, the emperor is supreme, and a small mermaid tribe, even if he uses it alone, it is him. Waiting for the honor, walking the power of the emperor alone is not a big mistake. What reason does the fairy world have to punish the lonely? The demon world is attached to the fairy world. The fairy world does not move, and the demon world dare not make a sound. The demeanor of a master of tigers and wolves."

Yan Duruo gritted his teeth with Yuehao, but Jiuyang wanted to persuade him again, when a palace official came over and bowed his head and whispered something in Hao Tingjun's ear, Hao Tingjun got up and said to Jiuyang: "Jiuyang, you are here to host this banquet for the emperor , Father will come back later."

"Father!"

Hao Tingjun ignored him, turned around and left, followed by several palace servants, and the group went straight to the harem.

After Hao Tingjun left, the courtiers consciously extinguished the candles one after another, and Jiuyang bowed to Yan Guizhi again, saying: "The Immortal forgives the sin, Jiuyang will order the palace people to extinguish all the candles in the palace!"

Yan Guizhi said, "Inside the palace?"

Yan Guizhi looked back at the sky, a golden light flashed in her eyes, and she said, "The whole harem is lit with shark candles!"

"Oops……"

Before Yan Guizhi could say more, Yan Qiongjiu hurried over.

Yan Duruo said: "Sixth sister, when did you come back?"

Yan Qiongjiu was in the dust, and Yan Guizhi knew that she had rushed back, knowing that something was wrong, so he asked her how the investigation was going.

Yan Qiongjiu handed the painting in his hand to Yan Guizhi, and Yan Guizhi unfolded it. Looking at the person above, Yan Qiongjiu told Yan Duruo, "The person above is the one who hurt the little princess of the Fire Lion Clan in the human world."

Yan Duruo pulled the canvas and asked, "Who is it?"

Seeing the person painted on it is only three-point familiar, but there is a mole of tears under his eyes, but he is deeply familiar with it.
