Back then, Hong Nu was very favored. His elder brother and now the Hong Prime Minister were so ambitious that they once asked Hong Nu to defraud Emperor Ye Xun of his mystical secrets and let his eldest son, Hong Zimo, practice secretly. Not only that, he also invited the Western Region Poison Immortal Legend
His poison skills, and he tried every means to get him to learn martial arts from him as his master. He was clearly training Hong Zimo as a prince.
However, although Hong Zimo was unruly and ambitious at the time, he was not ambitious, but he was infatuated. After falling in love with Hua Yunshang, he became even more loveless. Every step he took was for that demure
Beautiful woman.
After all, Lei Tianyi lived in seclusion from the world. Most of the things happened when Lei Tianyi met Hua Yunshang and knew that she was the woman in the painting in Sikong's room. He just figured out that the door was not an insider after all. What happened to these young people?
Well, maybe only they themselves know it best.
"Master, don't you also want His Highness Prince Rui to leave Qirui Villa? Do you think His Highness will stay with peace of mind when the Divine Concubine returns to Beijing?"
Sikong was very thoughtful and what he said hit the right note of Lei Tianyi's thoughts, so his attempts to stop him were silenced.
"Can you really help me?" Hua Yunshang just made a mistake. Her voice of "Brother Zimo" seemed to be out of control, which surprised her. She had traveled through time, and her incomplete memory was of no use to the Sikong in front of her.
She didn't know anything about it, but when she saw him for the first time, she felt unspeakable sadness in her heart. That kind of uncontrollable intimacy seemed to be the instinctive reaction of this body.
"Not necessarily," Sikong said, "I have only learned a little bit, and I can't even speak of being proficient. I don't dare to say anything about whether I can help the concubine. I can only say that I will do my best."
Hua Yunshang nodded repeatedly, but didn't know how to express her gratitude. She just handed him the jade pendant and said: "This is Su's thing. Xiao Qixie said that it contains huge power. I don't know whether it is true or not. Mr. Lao Sikong
Already."
"There is no need to be polite, the concubine. The high priest serves the country and the people. It is my honor to be able to help him." Sikong looked at the jade pendant and said, "It's just that it's getting late now, so the concubine might as well go back to her room and rest first."
, I also need to go back to the study to check the classics, so I can ponder the mysteries of this jade..."
"No!" Hua Yunshang refused decisively, her voice a bit sharp.
"Godly Concubine?" Sikong looked at her puzzled.
"Xian'er, you'd better rest early. Don't be exhausted. The high priest has great powers, so he will be fine." Ye Yu must not have known how gentle he was at that time, and how different he was from the cold-blooded and ruthless Prince Rui.
, clearly different from each other.
"How can I sleep when Su and the children are in danger?" Hua Yunshang said, "Since Mr. Sikong is willing to help me, why don't I go to the study with you? When you can open the enchantment door, I can also be there
Be the first to know.”
"No," Ye Yu was the one who objected. He said sullenly, "How can a man and a woman live together in the same room? Hua Yunshang, please don't forget that you are my Ye Yu's princess after all!"
"Hua Yunshang..." Sikong murmured her name as something seemed to come out of his mind, giving him a splitting headache.
"Ye Yu, you know that no matter who I am, I have Long Jiusu in my heart, and I can no longer tolerate anyone else. For him, let alone being alone with Mr. Sikong late at night, even if it costs my life,
I won’t hesitate.”
"What about me?" Ye Yu asked lonely, "What position do I have in your heart? Isn't that the woman who kept telling me that she would not marry anyone else, not you Hua Yunshang?"
"You asked me where you are in my heart?" Hua Yunshang lowered her eyes, avoiding Ye Yu's too hot gaze, "I'm sorry, you have never been in my heart. I have forgotten what happened in the past, Prince Rui
Your Highness, please forget about it, just think of it as that person, not me."
It wasn't her in the first place, Hua Yunshang added silently in her heart.
She is not stupid. Ye Yu is too arrogant, but he cannot be considered a bad person. At least he is not bad to her. Maybe he feels sorry for Hua Yunshang, but he does not have any deep grudge against her after time travel.
She could even feel that this domineering prince liked her a little bit, but it was this knowledge that made her cut off his budding love with a hard heart, because she knew that she had identified one person in this life.
Then he no longer had the intention to deal with others, and this person's name was Long Jiusu.
Ye Yu knew that she was no longer obsessed with him, but he didn't expect that she would be so heartless. His pride did not allow him to admit defeat, "It doesn't matter whether you have me in your heart. What I like is
There’s nothing you can’t get.”
"you……"
"Stop talking nonsense, don't you want to go to the study? I will go with you. The barrier gate sounds interesting, and I want to find out." Ye Yu urged the two of them to leave quickly, with the same look on his hands behind his back.
The young prince is aloof, but the sadness and loss in his eyes can still sting the eyes of others.
Lei Tianyi shook his head and sighed. Fortunately, Ye Yu was not obsessed with returning to Beijing, so he could breathe a sigh of relief, "You young people have energy, so I won't mess around with my old bones. You can go to the study by yourself."
, it’s time for this old man to rest.”
"Master, go slowly." Sikong nodded respectfully and looked at the jade again, with a rather complicated expression.
This jade was not an ordinary object. It was not an exaggeration to say it was a rare treasure. He was very curious about its origin, but Hua Yunshang said it was the object of the high priest, so he could not continue to ask. Although he did not believe in the theory of ghosts and gods,
But in the Kingdom of Night, asking about the private affairs of priests is blasphemous and inappropriate, or at least impolite.
He didn't think that this somewhat ignorant girl would know the origin of the jade. Although he couldn't see it, she gave him the feeling that she was a cute and silly girl, which was somewhat different from the beauty that the master said was a disaster.
The study room of Qirui Villa is next to Sikong's yard. The master said that he used to like reading, but he couldn't read anymore when he was blind, but Sikong still liked to come here, write and paint, which was quite elegant.
Lei Tianyi is a martial artist and has little interest in dancing, writing, and writing. Lin Yizhi is good at both arts and crafts. Unfortunately, he is so ambitious that it would be very difficult for him to sit in the study for half a day. As for his younger brother Si Ye, he has been fond of playing and having fun since he was a child.
, but I just know a few words.
Therefore, Sikong is a frequent visitor to this study.
The study room is very tidy, and there is a pot of orchid placed on the table, which is the same variety as the one in the yard. Adding a flower pot makes it look a bit more elegant, especially with the fragrance of books all over the room.
A pot of orchid naturally has some style.
Ye Yu closed the door of the study room, his handsome face looking gloomy and scary. He stared at Sikong who was sitting leisurely and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency Sikong, what do you want to do? If you have anything to say, you can't say it in front of Lord Lei.
Tell me?"
"His Royal Highness Prince Rui is really wise, I admire you." Sikong cupped his hands and smiled calmly.
"What are you talking about?" Hua Yunshang looked at the two of them blankly, "Aren't you here to find the classics?"
"It's a waste of time that you are usually smart, but now you act stupid," Ye Yu's accusation sounded a little more addictive, "Master Sikong can't see with his eyes, how can he check the classics? What he said is just an excuse.
Just get away from Master Lei."
"Is that so?" Hua Yunshang looked at Sikong. She admitted that she was confused and had too much faith in this immortal man. How could a man like him lie?
Sikong nodded slightly, placed the piece of lavender spiritual jade on the table, and said slowly: "I believe you both know that I am inferior to ordinary people. Not only can I not see things, but I have also forgotten the past, and the mystical skills I have learned are also forgotten.
It’s not so clear, I’m afraid that if I absorb the spiritual energy in the jade, I may not be able to find a way to break the barrier, so I hope that the concubine can think clearly about whether I am really willing to let you get the spiritual energy in the jade.”
Just as Xiao Qixie said, Long Jiusu's jade pendant is an extraordinary thing. Although a mortal cannot become an immortal if he gets it, it is obviously easy to dominate the world. Sikong said this, which shows that he is an upright and indifferent person.
Hua Yunshang nodded firmly. Sikong was extraordinary. Even if he had the power to subvert the dynasty, he would not have any ambitions.
Sikong smiled and said: "Actually, I can pass on the mysterious skills to His Highness Prince Rui."
This is the reason why he avoids Lei Tianyi. He has no intention of doing worldly things. Even if the concubine and the high priest ask for help, he wants to stay out of it. If Ye Yu can get the aura of jade, then he wants to stop it.
It was easy for Ye Huang to ascend the throne.
Lei Tianyi didn't say anything, but in his heart he still yearned for his only son. He wanted to fulfill him, but he was afraid that he would overestimate his capabilities and end up losing his life. If Ye Yu had enough chance of winning...
Sikong's idea is very simple. He passed on the mysterious skills to Ye Yu, allowing him to obtain the spiritual energy of jade. Whether he helps Hua Yunshang or not has nothing to do with him. It doesn't matter to him whether Ye Yu can win the country or not. He just takes it as a
It was just to repay the master for his kindness and give Ye Yu greater confidence in victory.
The reason why he avoids Lei Tianyi is because his old injury has not healed yet and he needs to take medicinal baths every day to heal his injuries. Without the mystical body protection he has practiced all year round, he may not be able to survive for a few days. Lei Tianyi will definitely not allow him to commit suicide like this.
practice.
"Pass it to me?" Ye Yu is so smart. Ever since he saw this piece of jade, all kinds of thoughts have been flying in his heart. He will not forget what Long Chuangchuang said. If he gets this piece of jade, he can win Hua Yunshang's heart.
, and the power contained in it can help him complete his hegemony. If he can really learn Xuan Shu, it will be great. However, "Your Excellency Sikong must have put in a lot of effort to learn Xuan Shu and taught it to me in vain. And
Why?"
Their refusal angered Hua Yunshang. She snatched the jade on the table and said angrily: "Your Excellency Sikong, I sincerely beg you. Since you agree, what's the point of pushing back? If you don't want to help,
, I will take my leave now."
Xiao Qixie's words still ring in her ears. The longer she stays in Prince Xisuo's barrier, the greater the harm will be to Su and the children. She doesn't care about the riddle between Sikong and Ye Yu. If he doesn't want to
To help her, she could only set off immediately and return to Kyoto to find Ye Huang. She believed that the unscrupulous Crown Prince would definitely help her.
Of course, she knew that this was the last resort. After all, it would take at least a day and a night to get to Kyoto from here. She was not afraid of running around, but she was afraid that he would not be able to wait.
"Xiao Shang, don't leave in a hurry..." Sikong blurted out his plea to stay, and he called "Xiao Shang" smoothly, as if he had called it a thousand times.
Hua Yunshang was shocked. Several scattered fragments flashed through her mind, but she couldn't remember anything after thinking about it carefully.
"How long will it take to teach my mysterious skills to me?" Ye Yu broke the awkward silence.
"It took at least an hour." Sikong said.
Ye Yu stared closely at Hua Yunshang, who was frowning and unwilling to wait for a moment. After a while, he smiled and said: "I have always been dismissive of these heretical tricks. Thank you to Your Excellency Sikong for your respect, but this mysterious art, I
The king is unwilling to learn, so you can cast a spell to let me see it."
He just didn't want her to be anxious. Even though his words didn't sound so nice, the two people present could feel his kindness.
"In this case, the Divine Concubine will hand over the spiritual jade to me."
Sikong spread his hands, and Hua Yunshang quickly handed over the jade, looking at him eagerly, "Your Excellency, Sikong, I'm sorry."
The so-called absorption of spiritual energy was far from as spectacular as Hua Yunshang imagined. There was no magic platform to cast spells, and there was no radiant light. Sikong just held the jade pendant, closed his eyes and meditated quietly, except for the jade-purple light in the palm of his hand that was getting brighter and brighter.
Apart from being lighter, there is nothing special about it.
Sikong said that he only needed to keep absolute silence at this time, so that he and the jade pendant could be connected...
Hua Yunshang didn't understand. She just watched with bated breath for fear of disturbing him. Ye Yu never moved his eyes away from her face. He was wondering whether he gave up an excellent opportunity for this woman.
He was wondering whether one day he would regret this for the rest of his life.
"It's not good! It's not good! Senior brother, come out quickly, something happened in the back mountain, something big happened!"
Si Ye's careless yelling came from far away, and then the study door was banged loudly by her.
Hua Yunshang was like a frightened bird, nervously looking at Sikong with his eyes closed, but when she saw him frowning, she felt her whole heart tightening. She hurried to the door, opened the door and pulled him after seeing her.
The stunned Si Ye covered her mouth and warned in a low voice: "Don't make any sound!"
Si Ye was a practicing master, but he was restrained by Hua Yunshang and couldn't move, so he nodded stupidly.
Hua Yunshang let go of her, but how could Si Ye be an obedient master? As soon as he was freed, he immediately shouted, "You are such a strange woman, what are you doing in the study at night? You dare to sneak up on me, don't think so."
You are a guest, I don’t dare to... woo woo!"
She was so noisy that Hua Yunshang had to cover her mouth again, but it was too late. Sikong, who had been disturbed by his silence on the wooden chair, suddenly opened his eyes, blood overflowing from his lips, and the jade pendant in his hand.
It was shattered in an instant.
Hua Yunshang was stunned. She didn't know whether it was because of the broken jade, or because she was worried about the pale Sikong. In short, she felt that her whole world was collapsing, and the little hope she had left was turned into a mess.
With the jade pendant gone, she could no longer go to Prince Xisuo's barrier to find Su and the children.
"Elder brother!" Si Ye took advantage of Hua Yunshang's daze, broke away from her hand, pushed her hard, and ran quickly towards Sikong, who was holding the table and shaking uncontrollably.
Hua Yunshang was pushed back by her, almost hitting the wall. Ye Yu grabbed her hand that was waving in panic, hugged her into his arms, and looked at Si Ye with clear murderous intent.
"Elder brother, are you okay?"
"I..." Blood gushed out from his mouth. Sikong endured the discomfort and asked this reckless "junior brother" who had caused such a big mess, "What happened... are you so anxious?"
"Why are you asking so many questions? Your injury is serious. Just don't say anything. I will send you to Uncle Fu right now." Si Ye supported Sikong, and even though he was worried, he did not forget to glare at Hua Yunshang, "You guys
What exactly did he do to Senior Brother? How could he do this?"
