Chapter 1288 [V152] In charge of the sixth house, the night of fascination
The sun rises from the sea level, and the dazzling golden light sinks into the blue waves, sparkling and moving.
In a secluded courtyard, Ning Yue slowly opened her eyes, moved her body, and gasped from the pain!
Last night, I was really carried away. I let him ask for it for so long. Although he slowed down again and again and was very gentle, I didn't realize it until the morning, and I was still eaten up by him.
Ning Yue touched the bed, it was cold, and called Dongmei to enter.
Dongmei broke through the curtain and came in with a smile, holding a set of resized skirt and apron in her hands: "Does it feel good to be reconciled with my uncle?"
Ning Yue glared at her angrily and amusedly: "You're going to make fun of me, aren't you?"
"Hehe, isn't the servant happy? To be honest, the servant used to hope that you would have a second spring outside, but after thinking about it later, my uncle is also very good. If you have a second spring, my uncle will be miserable. It is." Dongmei said with a smile.
Ning Yue flew over with a sharp eye, what a lawless girl! Still looking forward to her second spring!
Having said that, does Xuanyin count as her second spring?
It seems to count.
For some reason, Ning Yue touched her own face. Even though it was a completely unfamiliar face, the young skin still seemed to be reborn.
"Alas." She sighed.
Dongmei put on her bellyband: "Why are you sighing?"
"I sigh and I always laugh at Empress Geng who is still thinking about Xuanyin when she is old. In fact, she is not young anymore." After living two lives, the age of the previous life and the present life add up—
I dare not think about it anymore.
Dongmei now somewhat believes in Ning Yue's past life talk, tied a ribbon on Ning Yue, and said half-jokingly: "You, even if you live a thousand years, my uncle can only like you!"
Ning Yue couldn't help laughing, living a thousand years, isn't that a thousand-year-old demon?
Dressed neatly, Ning Yue went to wash up, Dongmei went to the small kitchen to bring the steamed bird's nest and breakfast.
Ning Yue was still a little embarrassed, her appetite was not good, so she ate a few mouthfuls of bird's nest, and then asked: "Did Xuanyin go to His Majesty's side?"
Dongmei said: "Yes, I went early in the morning after I finished exercising."
Still exercising? How do you wake up in the morning when you go to bed in the middle of the night? As expected of the son of a warlord family, he has never relaxed himself in this regard.
Ning Yue bent her lips and said, "Has he had breakfast yet?"
"No, I said I'm eating at His Majesty's." Dongmei poured Ning Yue a cup of boiled milk, "The young master said that this is good for pregnant women."
Ning Yue drank half a glass.
…
Today is the first day of taking over Fengyin. After breakfast, Ning Yue asked Dongmei to give a message to the concubines.
It took about a cup of tea, and the concubines arrived in twos and threes.
Concubine Li Shun was the first to arrive at the scene. Since the miscarriage, Concubine Li Shun has put her tail between her legs and behaved like a human being. No matter who throws a small banquet, she will go to join the party as soon as possible. But at this juncture, how could Concubine Li Shun dare to let others see the clue? Dressed more delicately than usual.
"Concubine Shun is in good spirits, I think her body is almost recuperated." Ning Yue said with a smile on her face.
Concubine Li Shun was afraid that Ning Yue would reveal the matter between her and the sixth prince, a trace of panic flashed across her face: "Thanks to Concubine Changsun, I am much better."
Ning Yue smiled slightly: "Why is it because of me? It is because of His Majesty's blessing. Concubine Shun is His Majesty's person, so naturally He has His Majesty's blessing."
Concubine Li Shun's legs immediately softened, she looked around, and said in a low voice: "Concubine Changsun, I was the one who was sorry for you in the past, and should not have listened to slander to plot against you, but you believe me, I too... have no choice! Don't mention the matter between me and the sixth prince anymore..."
"What a last resort! You made a mistake yourself, but you tempted me to break it, and you wanted to kill me to become the cornerstone of your lifelong relationship. I ordered the earth to survive, but it was definitely not your kindness! Now you call me Forgive you, but still believe that you have no choice? Am I being taken advantage of?" Ning Yue sneered.
Concubine Li Shun hurriedly said: "I... that... Concubine Changsun, you... I..." He hesitated for a long time, but couldn't say a complete sentence. Seeing that Ning Yue lost her patience, she hurriedly gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, bear the grudge I, I admit it! But please don’t embarrass the sixth prince! He is innocent! For so many years, I have been coercing him, and he can’t help himself! Also, I was the only one who plotted against you that day He didn't know about it from the beginning to the end, and in the end, he let you go too! Please don't seek revenge for the sake of letting him let you go!"
"Ha!" Ning Yue laughed incredulously, "You mean I should be grateful that he didn't kill me? Is it because I'm sick or you? I'm not a sinner, and he's not a judge. He shouldn't have Kill me! Killing me was his fault, he corrected his mistake in time, and he was the one who redeemed himself! What does it matter to me? Do I want to thank him sincerely for his reformation?"
"But...if he doesn't let you go, you are already dead, he...he saved your life!"
"Ouch." Ning Yue was about to be overwhelmed by Concubine Shun's logic, "According to what you said, I just went to the street to arrest someone, threatened to kill him, and then let him go. Since then, he owes me a debt." Is it a life-saving grace? Concubine Shun, let me tell you, kidnapping the royal family is a serious crime, and I did not punish him, so I really saved his life!"
Concubine Li Shun's face turned pale from choking: "...Okay...Even if...Even if it's what you said, we...We all owe you, but I just said it, and I also listened to the slander..."
"It's because of your own greed that you believe in slander, but in the final analysis, it's because of your own selfishness."
Concubine Li Shun obviously did not expect Ning Yue's thinking to be so different from that of normal women. Ordinary people have experienced such things and are already grateful to the sixth prince. They were anxious to ask who she was misled by!
"Princess Princess, you... don't you want to know who is behind the scenes who controls everything?" She clenched her lips.
"I don't want to know." Ning Yue said slowly, but said in her heart: For such a mentally handicapped question, you can guess who it is with your toes, so why don't you tell me?
Concubine Li Shun wants to say something more, Concubine Liu Gui and Concubine Yan Hui are here.
Concubine Liu Guifei hadn't slept all night, her face was haggard, and she put on a thick layer of makeup but couldn't cover the green eyes. She entered the room, first rolled her eyes at Ning Yue, and then sat down in the lower left corner.
Concubine Yan Hui and Ning Yue's eyes met in the air, Concubine Yan Hui smiled friendly, Ning Yue nodded slightly.
Concubine Liu Gui, who wished to kill Ning Yue with her eyes, had a panoramic view of this scene. Concubine Liu Gui sarcastically said, "Hey, who made the insinuation that Concubine Changsun is an unclean broken shoe yesterday? Just kneel down and lick people today." Feet! Don’t be disgusted!”
Concubine Yan Hui smiled: "Hasn't some people already knelt and licked? How is it? Is it good?"
Concubine Liu Gui was so angry that she almost overturned the table.
Concubine Yan Hui sat down next to Concubine Li Shun.
Soon, Concubine Zhang Li also came. She glanced at what Concubine Liu was doing next to her, feeling a little puzzled. According to her status, Concubine Yan Hui should be Concubine Yan Hui after Concubine Liu Gui, but Concubine Yan Hui took her seat—
Concubine Zhang Li yawned, sat down in Concubine Yan Hui's seat, tugged Concubine Yan Hui's sleeve and asked, "Hey, did you quarrel with the concubine?"
Without waiting for Concubine Yan Hui to answer, Concubine Liu Gui said sarcastically: "Concubine Li, you have to be gentle, don't tear Concubine Hui's clothes and you won't be able to pay for it! She is now a celebrity in front of Concubine Changsun, you better be sensible!"
Concubine Zhang Li hates people who are close to the throne the most in her life. Whoever is capable is her enemy! She loosened Concubine Yan Hui's sleeves in disgust, and squeezed close to Concubine Liu Gui.
Ning Yue drank tea calmly, as if she didn't notice the undercurrent among concubines.
Soon, Zhen'er entered and whispered something to Dongmei. Dongmei bowed and lowered her voice, "Eunuch Yue, please see me."
"Which Eunuch Yue?" Ning Yue asked.
"The new chief servant next to the queen."
"Xuan."
Dongmei gave Zhen'er a wink, and Zhen'er withdrew. Not long after, a middle-aged **** with fair complexion and thin figure came in with a brocade box in his arms: "Slave Yue Donghai, please pay attention to the eldest grandson concubine and concubine. Concubine Gui, Concubine Hui, Concubine Li, Concubine Shun.”
Ning Yue said calmly, "Eunuch Yue came here early in the morning, but is there something wrong?"
"Today is the first day of Concubine Changsun's appointment. The Empress is not feeling well and cannot come to congratulate her. She has specially prepared a small gift and ordered her servants to bring it to Concubine Changsun with a smile." Eunuch Yue presented the brocade with a smile like a tiger. box.
Dongmei took the brocade box in her hand.
Ning Yue said with a faint smile: "Your Majesty, you are being polite, tell your mother for me, I will go thank her old man later."
Hearing the word "old man", Eunuch Yue's face showed a bit of stiffness, but soon, he covered it up again, bowed and said, "Your servant will leave."
Dongmei muttered: "What? Deliberately taking Joe! Deliberately trying to kill him!"
It's strange that she didn't take Joe. So many things happened yesterday, first she made a fool of herself in public, then she lost Eunuch Qin, and at night Xuan Yin took away the Phoenix seal. Ning Yue said, "Put away your things."
"Yes." Dongmei turned and entered the room.
A servant girl served tea to the concubines.
Ning Yue glanced at everyone, and said: "Today I called all the ladies over here. In addition to formally meeting with you, there is also an important news to announce."
Concubine Liu Gui sneered: "What news? Don't your Majesty have another grandson?"
Ning Yue always had a peaceful smile on her face: "I hope so. Your Majesty loves you deeply. Naturally, the more descendants the better, the matter I announced today has nothing to do with descendants." She opened the table as she spoke. He took out a piece of crystal clear jadeite from the box on the top.
Everyone took a closer look and were instantly dumbfounded.
Isn't this... Fengyin?
How could it be in the hands of Concubine Changsun?
Ning Yue caressed the phoenix seal, and said unhurriedly: "The queen gave me the phoenix seal last night with love. From now on, I will be in charge of the sixth palace instead of her. I am not very familiar with it, so I will wholeheartedly ask the empress for advice, and I also ask the empresses of the palaces to give me advice, if there is something I have done that is not thoughtful, just point it out, I will accept it humbly."
One sentence, like a boulder falling into a well, with a bang, everyone's expressions changed suddenly. Even Concubine Yan Hui showed a look of astonishment.
Everyone knows how much Empress Geng treasures the Phoenix Seal. At the beginning, Empress Geng was ordered to take care of the court together with the prince, and had no time for the Six Palaces. I don’t know how many concubines rushed to get the Phoenix Seal, but Queen Geng suppressed them all. Besides, not to mention being in charge of the Sixth Palace, it is unheard of even to be in charge of the Sixth Palace. Now this yellow-haired girl, as soon as she became the eldest grandson concubine, she skipped the board of assistant manager of the Sixth Palace, and jumped directly to the height of being in charge of the Sixth Palace. This ability has to be admirable.
But, was it really the Queen who took the initiative to hand over the Phoenix Seal to Ma Ningyue?
Why didn't the queen come to congratulate her? Only a steward was sent.
They never believed that the queen was too sick to get out of bed, because just yesterday, the queen was alive and well.
Maybe it's shameless to come out to meet people?
Everyone had countless guesses in their minds, but without exception, the eyes they looked at Ning Yue were not as negligent as before.
Looking at these unrestrained concubines "kneeling down" at the feet of her lady in fear, Dongmei felt an indescribable joy in her heart.
After the banquet was over, Concubine Yan Hui stayed briefly in the name of going to the toilet.
"Concubine Changsun." She called Ning Yue to stop.
Ning Yueping retreated from the palace man: "Concubine Hui has something to say to me?"
Concubine Yan Hui said sternly: "I heard that His Royal Highness Changsun went down to visit His Majesty last night, and the Empress was also there. His Royal Highness Changsun didn't approach the Empress, did he?"
Ning Yue shook her head: "No."
"That's good." Concubine Yan Hui breathed a sigh of relief.
Ning Yue blinked suspiciously: "Is it really... so powerful? I mean her..."
Concubine Yan Hui sighed: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe that there is such a wicked thing in the world." She pinched a leaf casually, as if caught in a very frightening memory, she gently hugged her arms tightly "It happened more than ten years ago. I had a miscarriage. Your Majesty sympathized with me and specially allowed my natal family to visit me in the palace. My brother was also accompanying me. It stands to reason that outsiders are not allowed to stay in the harem." , but I was really seriously ill. His Majesty was afraid that I would die like this, so he asked my brother and mother to stay by my bedside all night. I woke up and said I wanted to eat ravioli from outside. Hit Queen Geng.
Empress Geng did not blame my brother, but asked him gently, how is Concubine Hui? Are you awake? Do you want to eat something? My brother had a very good impression of her, and I have slightly changed my opinion of her because of this incident.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. Not long after I recovered from the illness, I heard the news that my brother committed suicide. I went home in a hurry, and my mother told me that after returning from the palace, my brother seemed to be possessed by a demon, holding a handkerchief all day long, sniffing desperately, and whispering madly, saying that it was gone ,Gone. I didn't understand at first, but later I overheard the conversation between Eunuch Qin and the queen, and then realized that it was the queen who harmed him. On the surface, the queen didn't punish him for the collision, but gave him a veil with a special fragrance... It was her, she killed my brother! Still laughing at my brother's stupidity! "
Concubine Yan Hui turned her face, eyes filled with tears, "Do you think I can not hate her? Can I not take away her queen position?!"
Ning Yue patted Concubine Yan Hui's hand: "Don't be too sad, she won't end well."
Concubine Yan Hui wiped away her tears, calmed down, and said, "To be honest, my brother is not the only one who got caught."
"Could Your Majesty fall for her too..." Ning Yue couldn't find a suitable word to describe this fragrance.
Concubine Yan Hui shook her head lightly: "Your Majesty, I don't know, I guess yes, Your Majesty once loved Empress Chen so much, how could he fall in love with her? Lonely? We are not bad, but we have never won His Majesty's favor. "
"Is her body fragrance useful to women?" Ning Yue asked.
Concubine Yan Hui said: "It's useless, and it's useless to eunuchs. The fragrance is not particularly strong, and you can only smell it when you get close. Normal communication and meeting will not be affected. You ask His Royal Highness to guard her, don't let her get close It's all about itself."
…
In the Nuan Pavilion of the main courtyard, King Nanjiang and Xuanyin had breakfast, and Xuanyin supported him for a walk in the courtyard for a while. Seeing that the sky was fine, he asked Xiao Dezi to place a table on the stone table under the tree. vice board.
"You don't have any errands around you." The king of Nanjiang picked up the teapot and poured tea for Xuanyin, just like an old man in a common people's family who loves his grandson.
Xuan Yin nodded, and said: "There is a young man in the Marshal's Mansion." He was talking about Dong Ba.
"Where is enough for the servant? When you enter the palace, the servant will not be able to bring you!" The king of Nanjiang drank Luo Han Guo tea, which tasted very strange, and he smacked his lips.
Xuanyin was used to it, so he drank several sips.
Nanjiang Wangdao: "There are rules in the palace, but there must be a smart person. What do you think of Xiao Dezi?"
Xuanyin remembered that in the dream, Xiao Dezi was indeed the servant left by the king of Nanjiang, and he didn't say anything to refute: "It's very clever."
"I rescued him from the tiger's claws! That year when I went hunting, he was a little **** guarding the forest. He fed the tiger. As a result, the tiger refused to eat the rabbit and insisted on eating him. I shot the tiger to death with an arrow. By the way, he He is with me, and in terms of loyalty, no one is more loyal than him." Nanjiang King looked at Xuan Yin, "Give it to you!"
Without Xuanyin speaking, the king of Nanjiang said again: "After I died."
Xuan Yin's arm was stiff: "You are going to live a long life."
Nanjiang King smiled, but did not speak.
Xiao Dezi brought out a plate of steaming coconut cake from the room, put it on the table, and obediently retreated to the corridor.
"Everything tastes bad here at Old Zhao, but this coconut cake tastes okay, come on." He pushed the plate in front of Xuanyin.
Coconut cake is made by mixing milk and coconut meat. Xuanyin doesn't like the taste of milk, so he ate a few mouthfuls casually. Halfway through the meal, his heart suddenly twitched.
Seeing him frowning and holding his heart together, the King of Nanjiang asked with concern, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Xuanyin rubbed his heart, and he was fine again: "No."
"Nothing? You, just like the prince, always support yourself when you feel uncomfortable, as if seeing how shameful a doctor is!" Nanjiang King glared at him, and said to Xiao Dezi: "Xiao De Son, call Imperial Physician Liang here."
"No need, I really..." Before he finished speaking, his heart twitched again, and he choked.
Imperial Physician Liang is an apprentice of Imperial Physician Xun, and his medical skills are not as superb as his master's, but Imperial Physician Xun is too old to travel around, so he was sent to Spirit Snake Island. He took Xuan Yin's pulse: "Return to Your Majesty, His Highness Changsun's pulse condition is normal, may His Highness Changsun have any other discomfort besides heart throbbing?"
"Gone."
"Does it still hurt now?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore." It didn't hurt at all, but the twitching was uncomfortable, as if it was caught by something, and it was slightly itchy.
Physician Liang cupped his hands and said: "These are normal, just like hiccups. If His Highness Changsun feels unwell again, I will come to His Highness Changsun for treatment."
Xuanyin nodded: "I'm here for the imperial doctor Liang."
Nanjiang King looked at Xuan Yin: "Are you all right? There will be a hunt in the afternoon. If you are not feeling well, stay here with me."
Xuanyin said indifferently: "It's really all right, grandpa, please don't worry."
…
In the Island Master’s courtyard, Island Master Zhao’s whole body was itchy again, not flesh, but bones, as if ten thousand ants were biting into his heart, and he pushed open the door impatiently.
Ai Concubine came with a bowl of soup: "Master, my concubine cooked your favorite old duck soup."
Island Master Zhao didn't even look at her, and walked straight out of the gate.
The concubine gave the soup to the maid beside her, and raised her skirt to catch up: "Master! Where are you going? You haven't eaten breakfast yet!"
Island Master Zhao walked away sullenly.
The concubine grabbed his sleeve: "Master, what's the matter with you recently? Are you sick?"
"You are sick!" Island Master Zhao shook off his concubine's hand.
My concubine wonders, is the master bewitched or something? so fierce? !
"Master!" She grabbed Island Master Zhao's sleeve again, "Where are you going in such a hurry, if you don't speak clearly, I won't let you go!"
Island Master Zhao slapped her and slapped her across the face.
She froze on the spot.
Island Master Zhao gave her a complicated look, and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to apologize, but at the same time he seemed to want to appease, but in the end he left the yard in a panic without saying anything.
Island Master Zhao rushed to Queen Geng's residence: "I want to see the queen!"
The little **** entered the room and announced that it was still Eunuch Yue who saw him. Eunuch Yue held the whisk in his hand, and with a specious smile on his face, he looked at him calmly: "Your Majesty is not in good health, she is still resting. What's the matter, Island Master Zhao?"
Zhao Island Master grabbed Eunuch Yue's wrist, his eyes were red: "I...I want to see her...just one...one time!"
Eunuch Yue glanced at the big palm that was tightly clamped on him, and said with a smirk: "The owner of the island said this, as if the empress is who you are, you, you have to be careful."
Island Master Zhao teased: "I understand, but I... I... Eunuch Yue, you should know, right?"
Eunuch Yue took out a handkerchief embroidered with butterflies from his wide sleeve and wiped his forehead.
Island Master Zhao caught a glimpse of the butterfly on the veil with sharp eyes, grabbed it in his hand, and sniffed it desperately, but soon, he looked at the veil blankly: "It's not hers..."
Eunuch Yue smiled and said: "It belongs to the slave family. If the island owner likes it, he can take it."
Island Master Zhao threw it back into Eunuch Yue's arms with a chill: "Call her out! I...I can't take it anymore..."
Eunuch Yue touched Island Master Zhao's shoulder, leaned over, and said in Island Master Zhao's ear: "There is no free lunch in the world, don't you think so?"
…
After lunch, Ning Yue changed Xuanyin into a refreshing outfit: "Water, dry food, Jinchuang medicine and fire pockets are all in it."
Xuanyin hugged her and laughed: "I came back after two or three hours of hunting. You made it seem like you traveled far away."
"Aren't you worried about what unexpected situation you encountered? The lesson from the underground palace was not enough?"
"It doesn't seem like I was the one trapped underground last time, right?"
"Because it's me, I have more experience than you and know what to bring when going out!" Ning Yue said solemnly.
Xuanyin stroked her soft face: "Actually, you just don't want to part with me. If you tell me, I won't go."
Ning Yue glanced at him: "No, what are you doing here?"
"Fuck you." His hand penetrated into her skirt.
Ning Yue's face flushed instantly, she took out his hands that were messing around her legs, and pushed him out of the room.
…
The sun is shining brightly, the light in the forest is dappled, and the temperature is hot and humid.
Island Master Zhao took the lead, leading the heirs and sons and some daughters who knew a little about riding and archery to the depths of the jungle. He smiled and said, "I'm not bragging, all the prey on my Spirit Snake Island are treasures." , you can’t even see it outside!”
Someone immediately said: "What treasures are there? Tell us!"
"A snake with four claws, have you ever seen it?"
"Four-clawed snake? Isn't that the legendary dragon?" the young master asked.
Zhao Island Master said heartily: "Yes, it is Jiaolong. There are Jiaolongs in my woods. Let's see who of you can hunt them down!"
Those who believed in Jiaolong showed eagerness to try; those who didn't believe it snorted contemptuously, and turned their heads to search for other prey.
After passing the warning line, Island Master Zhao tightened the reins and said to everyone: "Daughters, don't go in, there are fierce beasts inside, you just hunt some rabbits, deer, etc. outside." The follower made a gesture.
The follower understood, and quietly let the rabbit and the deer go.
Among the heirs who came to hunt today, besides Xuanyin, there are the second prince Xuan, the third prince and the sixth prince. Perhaps they got the instructions from Concubine Yan Hui, the third prince treated Xuanyin very respectfully along the way, and they must first give up to good prey. Xuan Yin.
King Xuan was different. Ever since he knew that Xuanyin was the eldest grandson of the emperor, he had no nose and no eyes for Xuanyin. He would grab whatever Xuanyin wanted to hunt, and if he couldn't grab it, he would shoot indiscriminately, causing all the prey to be scared away.
The sixth prince frowned impatiently, rode his horse and left the large army.
"Second brother, isn't it too much for you? It makes none of us hunt! If you can't do it, you can find a new way yourself? Don't keep getting in our way!" The third prince said unceremoniously .
King Xuan snorted coldly: "The road belongs to everyone, and I can shoot wherever I like! If you are not happy, you can just leave!"
The third prince got into an argument with him.
Island Master Zhao shook his head, and said to Xuanyin: "Go, Uncle Zhao will take you over there to hunt blind bears!"
Xuanyin nodded, leaving King Xuan and the third prince who were arguing endlessly, and entered the depths of the jungle with Island Master Zhao.
Along the way, the two met many lions and leopards. Without Xuan Yinzhi, they were easily avoided. He just wanted to get a tiger skin for his son to make a winter coat, and a pair of bear paws for Yueyue's body.
The further you enter, the farther the human voice becomes, until it can no longer be heard, and the cicadas and the roar of birds and beasts linger in your ears, just like being in a zoo.
A golden python gracefully crawled over the branches, its tail drooping, almost touching Xuanyin's face.
Island Master Zhao said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, it's actually quite gentle. If you don't provoke it, it won't attack you."
Xuan Yin took a look at the golden python, and the golden python spat a snake letter at Xuan Yin, but in the end, it didn't launch any attack, and left with its fat body swaying.
After another walk, the branches and leaves were too lush, and the light was completely dimmed.
Xuanyin heard the unusual movement, and gently pulled the bow and arrow.
From the southeast, a fierce tiger sprang out suddenly, grinning its teeth and attacking Xuanyin. Xuanyin stared calmly, let go of his hand, and the arrow shot obliquely into the tiger's heart.
The tiger fell to the ground, thumped twice, and died.
Island Master Zhao patted Xuanyin on the shoulder in admiration: "Good boy! You will soon have the demeanor of His Majesty back then!"
Xuan Yin bent the corners of his lips, pulled out his dagger, peeled off the tiger's skin neatly, and put it into the bag Ning Yue prepared for him. Strange to say, the bag was made of unknown material, and it was not leaking. No deterioration, fresh tiger skin is put in, stuck into the seal, it is as if it has been preserved.
After that, Xuanyin shot a black blind man and a leopard again, and Island Master Zhao also shot a lot, but unfortunately missed a single arrow.
Xuanyin glanced at Island Master Zhao, and said, "Is Uncle Zhao on his mind? I feel absent-minded. In fact, you don't have to accompany me. If you have anything to do, just take care of it. I can do it myself."
Island Master Zhao's expression froze, and he said with a dry smile, "What's on your mind? I'm old and useless. When I was young, I was just like you. I shot every time, but then slowly, I got lazy. I don’t want to move anymore, I’m neglected to practice martial arts, you see, it’s hard to draw even a three-stone bow now. Don’t imitate me, you know? In the future, even if you become an emperor, you still have to suffer!”
Xuanyin smiled lightly: "The emperor's grandfather will live forever, and it's still too early for the emperor."
"Sooner or later, anyway, it's yours, and no one can take it away." Island Master Zhao said with emotion.
Boom—
A thunderclap flashed across the sky.
Island Master Zhao frowned: "No, it's going to rain! The weather on the island is like this, and it can change as you say, and there is no guarantee! Let's find a cave to shelter from the rain!"
…
Ning Yue was making tiger-toed shoes for the baby in the room, when a bright light suddenly flashed outside, followed by a deafening thunder, which made her hands tremble, and the needle pierced into her flesh.
She pulled out the needle and put the bleeding finger in her mouth.
Dongmei entered the door with her clothes in her arms: "What the hell? If you say thunder, it will thunder! Zhen'er! Go and collect the clothes!"
"Okay, I see—" Zhen'er outside responded.
Dongmei looked at Ning Yue: "Miss, what's wrong with you? Did you pierce your finger?"
"Yeah." Ning Yue looked at the red and swollen fingertips, "I haven't practiced for a long time, and I'm rusty."
"Stop doing these things, and leave the sewing and shoes to Zhen'er. Her skills are better than yours!" Dongmei put the needle and thread into the basket.
Ning Yue didn't answer her words, and looked out the window where the rain was already falling: "I don't know how long it will take, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back tonight..."
…
Xuanyin and Island Master Zhao found a relatively spacious cave nearby, about ten square meters, with some small stone cracks inside, and I don't know where it leads. The cave was full of dust, and there were some small animal bones in the corner.
Island Master Zhao cleaned up briefly, and picked up some dead branches that hadn’t been wet by the rain at the entrance of the cave: "Is there a fire pocket?"
Xuan Yin took out the Huozhangzi from the cloth bag.
Island Master Zhao took it in his hand, lit a small bonfire, and took off his outer shirt: "Bake your clothes! The humidity on the island is heavy, beware of getting sick."
Xuanyin also took off his outer shirt and put it by the fire to bake.
"Look at the rain, it won't stop for a while, I don't know what happened to those people." Island Master Zhao said, opened the bag, took out a few fruits, "I just brought these, let's eat them alive? Really I was so hungry that I roasted that leopard."
Xuanyin took out a box of pastries, a bag of steamed buns, and a bag of sugar-fried chestnuts from the bag like a magic trick.
Island Master Zhao was dumbfounded.
"Yueyue really had the foresight to prepare." Xuan Yin said with You Rongyan, remembering whether she was frightened by the thunder or not, and regretted going out.
Should stay with her, he thought.
Zhao Dao's staple food ate a piece of coconut cake without knowing the taste. Seeing that the sky had completely darkened and the rain showed no sign of weakening, he said, "It seems that we are going to spend the night in the cave tonight. You can sleep." , I will keep watch."
Xuanyin didn't refuse, leaned against the stone wall, and slowly closed his eyes.
Half an hour later, Xuan Yin was woken up by the screams of Island Master Zhao. He opened his eyes and saw Island Master Zhao rolling on the ground with his arms folded. A black poisonous snake stinged out of the hole.
Xuanyin lifted Island Master Zhao's right arm to look, and saw that he had been bitten by a poisonous snake: "What snake? Did you see it clearly?"
Island Master Zhao said in pain, "It's the viper on the island."
Vipers are too poisonous. Ordinary people will die within a few minutes after being bitten. Island Master Zhao has deep internal energy and can withstand half a day, but he cannot continue to consume like this.
Island Master Zhao fell into a semi-conscious state.
Xuan Yin frowned thickly, held his arm tightly, and helped him **** up the poisonous blood.
About half a quarter of an hour later, Island Master Zhao's complexion was no longer dark and purple, but his breath was still weak.
Xuanyin opened the cloth bag Ning Yue prepared for him, and found that there were many herbal medicines, one of which was to deal with poisonous insect bites.
"I don't know if it will work on snake venom. A dead horse is treated like a living horse, Uncle Zhao." Xuanyin fed Island Master Zhao a pill.
Heavy rain, pouring down.
Xuanyin asked Island Master Zhao to sleep by the bonfire, while he looked in the direction of the cave entrance vigilantly.
Suddenly, there was a sound of fine footsteps walking towards this side.
"Who?" Xuan Yin clenched the saber at his waist.
"Sure enough, there are people! That's great!" It was the voice of a middle-aged eunuch, "We were hunting with the island owner, and we got lost in the heavy rain. We heard someone screaming here, so we ran over to have a look!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he helped a beautiful woman to the entrance of the cave.
When Xuanyin saw the other person's face clearly, his eyes turned cold instantly: "Empress?"
Empress Geng was wet as if she had been picked up from the water. She brushed off the hair stuck to her temples: "It's this palace. What a coincidence, the eldest grandson of the emperor is also here. Was it you who screamed just now?"
Xuanyin subconsciously moved aside, keeping a distance from her: "It's not me, it's Island Master Zhao."
"What's wrong with him?" She asked standing at the entrance of the cave.
Eunuch Yue said angrily: "Your Majesty! Can you go in and talk again? If you continue to shower, you won't get sick, and all the servants will get sick!"
Empress Geng nodded, and with the support of Eunuch Yue, she sat down by the fire.
Xuanyin picked up the robe with a sword and put it on.
Empress Geng glanced at him, but did not speak.
Yue Gonggong said: "Your Majesty, are you hungry?" He looked at Xuanyin again, "His Royal Highness, do you have anything to eat?"
Xuanyin ignored him.
Father-in-law Yue made fun of himself, his eyes fell on the remaining half of the coconut cake and sugar-fried chestnuts, regardless of whether Xuanyin agreed or disagreed, while Xuanyin was looking outside, he secretly brought them over: "Your Majesty, here. "
Empress Geng ate some pastries.
Inside the cave, it was very quiet.
Xuanyin sat at the entrance of the cave.
Empress Geng and Eunuch Yue were sitting in the cave. Opposite her, across a bonfire, was the sleepy Island Master Zhao.
"Island Master Zhao... are you okay?" Queen Geng asked softly, her tone was like that of an innocent and gentle girl.
Xuanyin said casually: "You don't know how to see it yourself?"
Empress Geng's eyelashes trembled, and she said softly: "You seem to have some complaints about this palace."
"Your Majesty, worry too much, you are my imperial grandmother, how dare I have a problem with you? Do I look like such an unfilial person?" Xuanyin said with a cannon.
Empress Geng hates people calling her imperial grandmother the most. She is so young and beautiful, but a bunch of "filial sons and grandsons" come to her, and grandma and grandma call—
She doesn't like this feeling.
"You can be called Queen Ben Gong." She said bluntly.
Xuanyin smiled disdainfully: "Are you still afraid that I will call you old? You are my grandpa's wife, aren't you my grandmother? Grandma, you eat and drink, just close the door." Keep your mouth quiet for a while!"
Empress Geng's eyes changed slightly.
Eunuch Yue turned pale with anger and wanted to explode, but Queen Geng held down his hand.
In the cave, tranquility was restored.
I don't know if I accidentally got some poisonous blood when I sucked out the poisonous blood for Island Master Zhao, Xuan Yin's chest felt a little stuffy.
Cool wind mixed with rain hit the face, like a lover's hand, touching gently.
Itchy, from the cheeks to the heart, and then to the limbs.
Itches more and more.
Like ants are biting.
The body gradually felt a sense of emptiness, as if clamoring, longing for something.
A gust of cool wind blew from the crevices of the stone, blowing a silk handkerchief as thin as a cicada's wing, and gently floating on his face.
A faint body fragrance pierced into the tip of the nose, like a clear spring, washing away the discomfort all over the body.
He picked up the veil and looked back.
Empress Geng looked at him with full eyes, pure as a handful of clear streams.
He threw the veil into the fire in disgust.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, that maddening itch came again, stronger than before.
"Are you uncomfortable?" A bare hand rested on his shoulder.
The intoxicating body fragrance wrapped around him. Like a dry desert, there is rain suddenly, but there are only one or two drops.
"Do you want it?" She gently stroked his cheek.
With a bang in his head, Xuanyin turned over and pushed her to the ground...
