The luxurious royal carriage slowly drove across the Bluestone Bridge.

The guards on duty saw the Shan Gonggong in front of the carriage and didn't even check it. They made way out and half-kneeled on the ground and lowered their heads, looking extremely respectful.

In the carriage, the candles raised by the bronze man had not lit, and the skylight fell a little into this dark car.

Xia Ji didn't say anything.

Concubine Ning just held her chin and looked at him with a smile.

"Sister doesn't know which girl you like yet. In a few days, I'll ask Hongyun to bring you a few portraits. If you like, just leave it alone. In another four years, when you are old and old, my sister will watch you get married.

Then, there will be a bride who will take care of you, and my sister won’t have to worry about you anymore.”

Xia Ji asked: "Are you really happy?"

Concubine Ning smiled and said softly: "One day you will understand, but it is not what you think. My sister did not compromise."

"One day? Hoho, what day?"

Concubine Ning was silent, and then said a strange thing softly: "This day is destined to be there, Xiao Ji will see it, but at that time, maybe you no longer need your sister."

Xia Ji asked: "Miss Xiaoning, what does it mean?"

Concubine Ning covered her mouth and laughed, the cinnabar on her eyebrows was as bright as blood.

The two returned to the harem.

Concubine Ning waved her hand and asked the eunuchs and palace maids to leave, then grabbed some candied fruits for tribute, and went to pick up the newly brewed autumn pear soup and the small muffins she made in the palace for no reason, put them in an exquisite wooden basket, and then carried them to the table.

Holding your cheeks with both hands, it looks like a charming flower blooming, "Xiao Ji, eat it."

Xia Ji has been in this world for sixteen years.

All memories are reconstructed here.

In this picture, he remembered the past.

At that time...

My sister also watched him and Bai Pu eat muffins like this.

Bai Pu is his only neighbor, very burly, two years older than him, very calm and reliable, and never speaks easily.

Xia Ji was originally from time to time and could not play with ordinary children. So, after a while, these two men became good friends.

At that time.

My sister would always run to the small garden and yelled softly: "Xiao Ji, Bai Pu, the muffin is ready. Do you like plum flavor or tangerine peel?"

The two of them would get up immediately, then rush to wash their hands, then sit upright on the long wooden table, watching their sister bring the small muffins to the table, and then rush to eat them.

Now, Bai Pu is attracted by an elder of a major force in the Great Zhou River and Lake because of his outstanding talent and reliable character, and is accepted as a closed disciple.

This big guy didn't want to go, but he went there in the end.

Before leaving, the big guy clenched his fists and said, "Sister, Xia Ji, when my martial arts skills are perfect, I will come back to protect you!"

Thoughts are pulled back.

Concubine Ning looked at him with a smile, without the appearance of a concubine on her face, but instead she felt a little playful and expectant: "Xiao Ji, eat quickly and see if my sister's skills have regressed."

Xia Ji grabbed a piece, and there was a little slight plum sauce on the edge of the muffin. My sister always liked to mark it to distinguish the taste.

He leaned to his mouth, took a bite, then closed his eyes, and quietly enjoyed the muffin.

The taste is still the same as before, better than all the expensive delicacies in large restaurants.

He finished eating one piece and grabbed another one.

In a moment, most of the basket was solved.

Concubine Ning looked at him gently.

suddenly.

A loud sound rang out of the palace.

Not long after, a little eunuch ran over and half-kneeled outside the door to report: "Empress Ning, the emperor invites you to Guangfu Palace to watch interesting tricks."

Concubine Ning regained her laziness and coldness and asked lightly: "What trick?"

The little eunuch said, "The Taoist in Xianshan caught a doll, saying it was a monster from the demon clan, and is about to display it now."

Concubine Ning paused and said, "Go and tell the emperor that I will come later."

"promise."

The eunuch arrived and hurried down.

Xia Ji suddenly said, "Sister, you seem unhappy. Looking at the monster, are you unhappy?"

Concubine Ning looked up and looked at Xia Ji in a complicated way, then said, "Let's go and see together. I'm afraid of these, but with Xiao Ji accompanying you, maybe it will be better."

She dressed up a little, but she was beautiful.

Then Xingning Palace set up, Xia Ji followed and headed towards Guangfu Palace.

The Guangfu Palace was extremely lively, but almost all the palace maids, eunuchs and guards were all there, and the other concubines were not invited.

Emperor Ji Sheng of the Great Zhou Dynasty was obsessed with immortality techniques, so he attached great importance to Taoist people.

At this time, he was chatting with a Taoist in an apricot yellow Taoist robe.

An iron cage is placed in the courtyard of Guangfu Palace.

There was a coma pink doll in the cage.

Ji Sheng waved his hand with a smile, and Concubine Ning walked up.

When the emperor saw the young man beside Concubine Ning, he looked happy and said majestic: "Come here together and sit next to Concubine Ning."

Concubine Ning glanced at the doll in the cage and said, "Prince, which child is this? How could it be a monster?"

Ji Sheng laughed and said, "I don't know about this, right?

Wang Zhenren from Qingfeng Mountain is a figure who has taught magical powers by De Meng Xianren. The child he captured looks like a human, but as long as he bakes it with fire, it will quickly turn into a monster."

Concubine Ning glanced at the doll in the cage and rubbed her forehead with some headache: "I am a little uncomfortable."

The emperor was about to say something, but Zhenren Wang glanced at this side and said loudly: "Master, everything is ready."

Ji Sheng comforted Concubine Ning slightly, and then said with great interest: "Let's start."

The king of king stood in front of the iron cage.

He took out a talisman from his arms, recited a spell silently, and then shot the talisman out and stuck it onto the iron cage.

In an instant.

The talisman burned and turned into a circle of hideous fire snakes surrounding the iron cage.

The doll in the cage woke up suddenly. He looked around, showed fear, and then spoke and roared.

The roar was loud, scaring the royal family around him and the eunuchs and palace guards who were watching were screaming.

But soon the exclamation turned into laughter.

"This sound is indeed a monster."

"It is worthy of being the real person from Qingfeng Mountain. This talisman is really a magic spell."

"It's really an eye-opener. I didn't expect that this monster was actually a child just from its appearance. Who would have thought of it?"

In the flame.

The doll quickly turned into a pink and white-haired rabbit. At the moment it transformed, the flames of the talisman crawled into the gap in the iron cage, wrapped the rabbit in it, and burned it wildly.

Wang Zhenren suddenly said: "This fairy is not dead yet. The demon soul in its body is still waiting to escape, so it also needs a second talisman to kill its soul. This is the real monster.

Your Majesty, do you see if anyone is willing to use this talisman to kill monsters?”

The emperor looked at the burning white-haired rabbit with a smile and suddenly said, "Concubine Ning, this is quite interesting, you go."

Concubine Ning pursed her lips, looked at the iron cage, and then said, "Your Majesty, I feel uncomfortable. Maybe I have eaten too much Qiuli soup..."

Ji Sheng was about to say something, but Zhenren Wang suddenly laughed and said, "It's okay, Empress Ning, come and try it. This blessing of exterminated monsters can bless the Empress's health."

When the emperor heard that he could bless his health, he immediately said, "Concubine Ning, go."

Xia Ning had nowhere to hide, so she smiled, then got up, took the talisman from the hand of the real person in the almond Taoist robe, closed her eyes and threw it into the iron cage.

The talisman suddenly turned into a white flame.

The dying white-haired rabbit suddenly screamed strangely, and then it really collapsed. The flesh on its body was burned like paper money, turning into ashes in the wind.

Wang Zhenren smiled and said, "Empress Ning, how do you feel?"

Concubine Ning said: "I really feel a little lucky... my health has improved a little."

Zhenren Wang laughed and said, "That's good, that's good."

Xia Ji watched quietly.

His eyes stayed on the body of Zhenren Wang for a moment, and he had already recorded the appearance of the Taoist.
