Chapter 164 How can there be a star just like you?
Xu Yong was sitting on the dragon throne in the palace, with a lingering smile on his face.
All the civil and military officials were standing under His Highness. The faces of these veterans who stood with him in the past had different expressions. Xu Yong admired those loyal people. After learning that he had ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he resolutely wrote a letter of remonstrance in blood.
Feng, scolded Xu Yong for his unkindness. After reading the letter, Xu Yong really admired the loyalty and courage of these veterans.
But then, he sent the dark ghost to devour the loyal old minister alive in front of everyone.
Sure enough, it worked. Among the civil and military officials, no one spoke up, as if they tacitly approved Xu Yong's ascension to the throne, and all the civil and military officials, no matter how big or small, bowed their heads and worshiped.
Nalan Zhijin stood next to Xu Yong, but there was no expression on his face. This chess piece that was first placed next to King Xu Yan finally stood up again: "Your Majesty, that prince... no
, Prince Xu Chengdi’s whereabouts have not been found so far, so why don’t your Majesty give me some manpower to search for him everywhere.”
The whereabouts of the disappeared Xu Chengdi, or the current prince who was possessed by Emperor Qingming, are still unknown.
"It doesn't matter, life and death are fate."
Xu Yong, the former vassal king, was sitting on the dragon chair with a somewhat comfortable look on his face: "Third brother, this dragon chair is so comfortable, why don't you come and sit down?" Turning to look at Xu Liang below, Xu Yong had a sincere expression and invited with a smile.
.
"Your Majesty, those who can serve as dragon chairs in the current dynasty are only those who obey the heavens. I, Xu Liang, will no longer be called the 'King of Lingyi' from now on. Please allow your Majesty to allow me to retire to the mountains and forests again to cultivate flowers and fish."
clever!
As expected of someone who would even recommend Nalu Sancun to Xu Yong. At the moment, Xu Yong looked at it from top to bottom, looking a little pity: "Third brother, do you really want to be that pastoral hermit, living a life of peace with the world?"
Xu Liang kowtowed, folded his hands on his forehead, and bowed to the end.
"That's all, everyone has his own ambitions." Xu Yong looked regretful: "Zhijin, please send my third brother to the mountain, don't be careless!"
"My lord, I obey the order."
When all the civil and military officials came down to court, Xu Yong, who was sitting alone on the dragon chair in the somewhat empty hall, felt very uncomfortable. He had been patient for more than 20 years and finally let him wait for this day. Xu Chengdi could not be found? It was just his son.
, if it’s gone, it’s gone. As long as you can sit on the dragon throne, what’s the point in the world that you can’t abandon?
"It seems that you care about this dragon chair." A voice came, and Xu Yong frowned. Who dares to be so bold in front of him?
Looking up, the middle-aged man with a grass stalk in his mouth leaned against the pillar in the hall and looked at Xu Yong with a smile: "I heard that King Xu Yan escaped, but didn't send anyone to look for it? It seems that you covet the beauty of Queen Cao.
Isn’t it a day or two? Do you really don’t want to capture that beautiful Empress Cao and treat her as a concubine?”
Xu Yong stood up quickly and stood in front of Lu Sancun: "Greetings, sir."
After saying that, he knelt down.
Lu Sancun stopped him and said, "You are the king of a country. If you kneel down to a commoner like me, it will really shorten my life. You must not do it, you must not do it."
Xu Yong still knelt down and said, "Mr. Sancun, please make it clear."
This time Lu Sancun no longer stopped him, but looked at the person in front of him and said, "I heard that King Xu Yan took Queen Cao and fled to Funiu Town, which is where Xu Qingmu lived since childhood." Lu Sancun was a little a little bit confused.
Sleepily, he walked towards the dragon chair without caring at all and squatted on it: "Oh, by the way, let me tell you another news. Your precious son is now in Siyue Lake and has been slaughtered to death by your own hands.
Siyue Lake in the Ghost Town."
Xu Yong's eyes were shocked. Siyue Lake had become the second small Fengdu.
In order to prevent the news from leaking out, Xu Yong followed Lu Sancun's suggestion and led his troops to besiege the city and massacre. On that day, corpses were strewn in the fields beside Siyue Lake, with no one left alive. Later, a soul-suppressing banner was set up by the lake to let people know. The souls of the dead in Siyue Lake are not allowed to die. Although Xu Yong didn't know why Lu Sancun acted like this, he just believed at that time that Lu Sancun must have a purpose.
Of course there is a purpose!
"Mr. Sancun, I wonder what Xu Chengdi is hiding there?" Xu Yong suppressed the urge in his heart to rush into Funiu Town and snatch Queen Cao back as a concubine, but instead asked Xu Chengdi's movements first. , after all, this son has seemed extremely abnormal since that day.
"This dragon chair is really comfortable." Lu Sancun yawned greatly and continued: "What else can I do? I dug a tree for my son to enjoy the shade. The soul-calming flags you set up with your own hands are now in use. superior."
Glancing at Xu Liang, who was standing like a minister, his smile was a little playful: "Who do you think God will spare?"
Xu Liang was a little confused.
The initial siege of Siyue Lake was the intention of Lu Sancun, and the setting up of soul-calming flags was also the method of Lu Sancun. Why are you looking at yourself like this now?
At the moment, Xu Yong still said respectfully: "You are bright and stupid, sir, please explain clearly!"
But for a while, there was no movement on the stage.
Looking up again, the person on the dragon chair was already fast asleep. There was a trace of evil in Xu Yong's eyes, I have already won the world, what's the use of you? But soon, this Xu Yong stood respectfully, waiting. People on the dragon throne, wake up and sleep well.
Very much like Cheng Menlixue's scholar.

Sword Qi Pavilion.
Sitting on the huge stone sword statue in the Ye Family Sword Tomb, Xu Pei was in a daze.
Why did that father want to kill himself? Thinking of that night, the usually gentle father's eyes suddenly surged with fierceness, and he stabbed his heart with a claw. Fortunately, he escaped quickly, otherwise he would have been in danger with just that claw. Fortunately, Jiang Taozhi appeared in time and saved himself.
But the question is, why did Jiang Taozhi know that his father wanted to do something to him?
Somewhat strange.
This woman who came down from the Lilan Palace seemed to be mysterious in every aspect. Just saying that she wanted to marry him made Xu Pei confused. Could it be that she was really interested in his position as the prince?
Impossible, after getting along with her in recent days, she is definitely not such a mundane person.
Does that mean he really likes himself? Xu Pei touched his face, obviously a little unsure. Since getting married, let alone the beautiful scenery of a spring night, even if he wants to get close and hold hands, he will be beaten half to death. It seems that Marrying yourself is just to protect yourself.
And how could Queen Cao, a usually weak and boneless beauty, be able to arouse Juechen with one sword and fight with Jiang Taozhi against her father?
Wang Shuai, holding his head and squatting on the statue, was puzzled.
"Master..." a voice came from below.
Lin Xue.
Xu Pei gathered his emotions, jumped down from the height, stood next to Lin Xue, and naturally held her hand: "Sister Xue'er, are your injuries completely healed?"
Lin Xue blushed a little.
Xu Pei looked at Lin Xue with a gentle look in his eyes: "I'm suffering."
Lin Xue's face became even more rosy, and she seemed a little ashamed: "Xue'er is not a bitter person. It is Xue'er's honor to be able to do this for the master."
The woman who once wore a white dress and was remembered by Xu Qingmu for many springs, summers, autumns, and winters, now looked a little groveling in front of Xu Pei, completely losing the appearance of the woman with beautiful features and eyes at that time. Instead, she looked like a kitten returning to her master's arms.
Fascinating for a hundred years.
"Sister Xue'er, tell me about Xu Qingmu. Living in Funiu Town since childhood must be very interesting, right? If you don't do it to me, it would be very boring." Xu Pei held Lin Xue's hand and still didn't let go. Like
It's an extremely natural thing, and it's only natural.
"Master, you..." Lin Xue signaled that such a situation might make Jiang Taozhi a little jealous.
Xu Pei understood: "It doesn't matter, although that woman is good-looking, she is not as feminine as Sister Xue'er."
Lin Xue smiled happily.
From the heart.
"The life in Funiu Town...is indeed quite interesting. Xu Qingmu also...lives very well there, but..."
"Just what?"
"It's just that the master didn't work hard, so he was defeated by the master." Lin Xue tried to keep her voice calm.
Xu Pei sighed, took Lin Xue's hand and jumped onto the huge sword-shaped stone statue: "Actually, I'm really not as good as Xu Qingmu..."
He seemed to have thought of something, and continued: "Whether it was the battle in the same realm that year, when he who had just entered the fourth realm, he could actually fight against me who was at the peak of the fourth realm, and it was a tie; or the battle of heaven that just passed,
It seems like I won, but actually if you hadn’t helped me block that sword, I would have definitely lost..."
Lin Xue quickly reached out and blocked Xu Pei's mouth: "I won't lose."
Feeling the tenderness of Lin Xue's fingertips, Xu Pei's mind condensed, and some restlessness seemed to surge in his body.
"Um... Xu Qingmu, I didn't bully... bully you, right?" Xu Pei's voice was a little urgent.
"No... not really." The voice was almost inaudible.
Suddenly, Xu Pei stretched out his hand, grabbed Lin Xue's arms, pulled the fragrant woman down in front of him, and said with great seriousness: "Sister Xue'er, you know, I have always liked you since I was a child.
Although I don’t know why you were sent away, I still like you now!"
Lin Xue wanted to escape, but found that she couldn't even turn her face away: "Master... Master, Empress Jiang Taozhi..."
It seemed that the words he said later had no effect, so Xu Pei kissed her on the lips.
For a moment, there was a tacit understanding.
The night where water and milk blend together is always a bit pleasant. But some people lightly cover it with a veil. Under the moonlight, the peach blossom stick looks a little lonely.
Are there any stars like you?
It's just a meteor that dazzled the eyes and deceived the heart for a moment.
How can I have deep love and grow old together with you?
It's just the most gentle thing to deceive oneself and others after being false.
Looking at the two people on the sword-shaped stone statue, Jiang Taozhi felt a little calm. Suddenly, this descendant of the Heavenly Dao of Lilan Palace had defeated countless female cultivators of the younger generation from the tribe with one stick, and he laughed.
:
"Hello, my name is Xu Sanzi...oh no, my name is Xu Kun. Nice...to meet you..."
Standing behind the fat Xu Sanning, the boy with a sunny smile...
Very nice.

--------------------------
Funiu Town.
King Xu Yan, who had already gotten out of bed, walked out of the brick cave dwelling with the support of Queen Cao.
"I'm sorry...Yuqiu, it was me who harmed you and Qingmu..." King Xu Yan was a little sad. This man who once stood at the top of the palace looked extremely old now.
The moment Emperor Qingming fled, he also took away part of his life force. This was the price of the deal with those monsters.
"I said I never blamed you, do you believe it?" Empress Cao flipped up the broken hair behind her ears, her eyes were a little clearer, and they were brighter than when she was a queen in the palace.
"Sending Qing Mu away was the right decision for me. It's just that our son has suffered a lot these years..." Empress Cao chatted a lot with Lin Yu, starting from stealing leftovers when she was a child, to the station
Peeping at the warmth of others in front of the window sill, and then going into the mountains alone to collect herbs, all these things made the palace master of Lilan Palace feel like a knife.
But she has no regrets.
Just like when the man next to her stood in front of the stone tablet and knelt down to exchange souls, she never regretted it.
Any regrets?
Even if she is possessed by Emperor Qingming, she still treats herself like this. If a woman is like this, she will have no regrets in this life.
Suddenly, Queen Cao raised her head and looked at the palace in the distance. She seemed to feel something. She frowned slightly, supported the man beside her, and said softly:
"Your Majesty, the wind has picked up. Come inside and have a rest."
