Chapter 14 Chapter Thirteen

The waiters in several main halls in Chengen Palace already knew Xiaoyao's identity, because when they saw Xiaoyao, they all called her Wang Ji, just like treating Anian, but they didn't have any abnormal reactions, as if Xiaoyao had always in this palace. Xiaoyao couldn't help admiring her father. Most of the time, it is easy to control thousands of troops, but it is very difficult to manage the family's one-acre three-point land. How strong is it to manage the Cheng'en Palace tightly? Zhuanxu has been very busy recently, and he often comes to see Xiaoyao at night, talking with her, and he doesn't leave until she falls asleep.When Xiaoyao was bored, she would often go to Yiqing Garden to swim. Occasionally, she would think, what would she do if she bumped into Anian, but Cheng En Palace was so big that Xiaoyao hardly felt that there was a princess living in this palace. and a princess.

Every time she swam, the maids spread out consciously to help her guard the surroundings in case someone bumped into Wang Ji.The surroundings are very quiet, Xiaoyao often thinks of her mother while swimming, she once thought she would not miss her mother anymore, but it turns out she still misses her.And because she deliberately suppressed it, after returning to the familiar environment, the longing became more and more intense, but it was accompanied by pain. As long as there is a bit of missing, there will be a bit of pain, and as long as there is a bit of pain, there will be a bit of pain. hatred.

Xiaoyao felt that she must be lonely again, and she forced herself to think about other things, swimming, swimming... There must be other interesting things in her life related to swimming... Xiaoyao suddenly missed Nine Lives Liu, if he is here, I'm afraid she won't have time to recall the past.However, Wen Xiaoliu has completely disappeared, even if he sees Xiang Liu again in the future, he probably won't recognize her anymore. Xiao Yao lay on the water, sighing melancholy. In the evening, after dinner, Xiaoyao went to Huayin Hall to find Zhuanxu, and met Anian on a narrow road.

Anian was upset because he hadn't seen Zhuanxu for several days, but when he saw Xiaoyao, he couldn't help but get angry.She scolded the maids to back down, walked up to Xiaoyao, and said angrily, "Why do you bully brother Zhuanxu?" Xiao Yao explained guiltily: "I didn't, it's because he's too busy, he only has a little time every night." As soon as Ah Nian heard this, she knew that Xiaoyao would see Zhuanxu every day, she was so angry that she didn't know what to do, she pushed Xiaoyao hard like a child fighting. Xiaoyao's spiritual power was low, and she fell to the ground all at once. It was a coincidence that Zhuanxu came back at this time, and saw this scene clearly.He hurriedly rushed over, helped Xiaoyao up, and reprimanded severely: "A Nian, don't you know that Xiaoyao has almost no spiritual power? If you try again next time, I will ask Master to punish you properly. "

Ah Nian's tears fell, she rushed forward, and while pushing Zhuanxu fiercely, she cried, "So what if I do it? I just do it, you call the father to punish me! Finally If you beat me to death, you will be happy, anyway, you don’t want me anymore..." Zhuanxu was afraid of hurting Anian, so he didn't dare to use his spiritual power to resist, and was pushed back by Anian. Xiaoyao tiptoed and sneaked away. When passing by Zhuanxu's attendant, Xiaoyao whispered to the attendant: "I have something to tell my father tonight, so that my brother doesn't have to come to see me."

Xiao Yao slipped into Zhaohui Hall, sat next to Emperor Jun, poked her head to see what he was looking at. Emperor Jun glanced at her with a smile, still busy with his own affairs. Xiaoyao looked at it for a while, feeling so bored, she stood up with her hands behind her back, touched things here and there, making noises from time to time, Emperor Jun asked, "How are you learning what your mother left you?" Xiaoyao pointed to her head, "The Queen Mother said that thing is a disaster, and forced me to memorize it all and destroy the jade slips." Emperor Jun said, "There are a lot of medical skills on the shelf over there. If you have time, you can read more. If you don't understand something, you can just ask the doctor in the palace for advice."

Xiaoyao went over to look through it, and really took a book to read it carefully, but it was not the learning of medical skills that her father expected, but to continue to study how to harm people.Today's push by Ah Nian made Xiaoyao wake up a lot, she can't slack off! Two fathers and daughters, one sat in front of the case to deal with the papers and memorials, the other leaned on the soft pillow and read medical books. It was not until late at night that Emperor Jun sent Xiaoyao back, and he himself returned to Zixin Hall to rest. Xiaoyao started to study poisons again. During the day, she would go to the doctor in the palace for advice, and at night, she would go to her father's side to hold it. Busy every day, she felt that her life was easier.The only regret is that no one let her test the poison.

One night, Xiaoyao was admiring her new poison in Zhaohui Hall, and regretted that she couldn't give it to Xiangliu. She took out her precious little mirror and let the little mirror reproduce the past events in her memory. There is a scene where Xiang Liu has nine heads painted on his face, and there is a scene where Xiang Liu took her sneaking on the seabed after Zhuan Xu got rid of Gu, and she secretly remembered it with a small mirror. In the deep blue sea, Xiang Liu was cruising gracefully and freely in white clothes and white hair. His long white hair fluttered behind him, making his handsome face look very bewitching.

"Who is he?" Emperor Jun's voice suddenly sounded, and Xiao Yao was startled.Turning around, I realized that at some point, the father was sitting behind her, looking at her mirror, apparently very interested in the man in the daughter's mirror. Xiao Yao said, "A friend who is not a friend." Emperor Jun smiled and said, "I thought you would miss that little fox from Tu Shan's family at this time." Xiaoyao made a face, "Maybe he is spending time with his fiancée, having a good time, and I'm not stupid, why do you miss him?" Emperor Jun looked at Xiao Yao helplessly, she really dared to say anything.

Xiaoyao also knew that her words were presumptuous, so she smiled flatteringly: "I will pay attention in front of people, so that the king of a country will not lose face." Emperor Jun sighed: "You and your mother...are not alike at all." There is also that person, they are both hot-tempered people, but Xiaoyao is actually cold-hearted. Xiaoyao wanted to put away the small mirror, but Emperor Jun took it, "'There are strange beasts in the wilderness, they know the past but not the future', they can peek into the past, but they can't predict the future, rumors use the beasts of the past to predict the future. I have only heard of mirrors made of spirits that can peep into the past, but I have never seen them. Where did you get the mirrors made of the spirit of the scorpion?"

Xiao Yao curled her lips and replied: "The nine-tailed fox demon gave it to me. At the beginning I was always embarrassed, so he asked me to use this small mirror to record the appearance of the previous day, so that even if the second day If there is a deviation, it can also be adjusted back. With this small mirror, I am really not afraid." Emperor Jun said: "You can keep his things, so it can be seen that you really don't mind." Xiao Yao said indifferently: "He is already dead, why should I let him torture me?" Emperor Jun said: "You live very transparently." Xiao Yao giggled and said, "It's better to say that I'm very greedy, and I'm reluctant to part with good things." Emperor Jun's hand brushed across the mirror, and a picture of Xiang Liu swimming in the sea appeared, "Is this friend who is not a friend worth remembering forever?" Xiao Yao snatched the mirror, "Just remember to play, maybe it will be erased tomorrow." Emperor Jun shook his head and laughed, wanting to say something else, Xiaoyao stretched her waist, covered her mouth and yawned, "So sleepy!" Emperor Jun dragged her to stand up, "I'll take you back to rest." Back at Minser Hall, Xiao Yao picked up water to drink, but stopped vigilantly.She opened the kettle filled with water, and as expected, she saw a few worms soaked in it, and Xiaoyao murmured, "A Nian, why are you so weak? If you can be as powerful as that nine-headed willow, my Days will be more interesting." The face of the maid who was laying the quilt changed, Xiaoyao walked over and saw that the quilt was scratched by the dagger.Xiao Yao shook her head feebly. A maid said in a low voice: "It's not a problem to toss around like this every day, or I will report it to Your Majesty tomorrow." Since these days, something has happened every day, either there is a snake hidden in the bathtub, or sand is sprinkled in the rice. Da Wang Ji didn't care, she teased the snake, took a bath, and ate a few cakes when there was sand in the meal, but they couldn't bear it anymore. Xiaoyao smiled, "I want to tell you to do it yourself, but Anian knows about it, so you can figure it out yourself!" None of the maids dared to speak. Xiaoyao picked out a cup that could still be covered, "Go to sleep, and get some new bedding tomorrow." On the last day of Meng Dong's month, Ruo Shou brought the dresses to be worn for the ceremony. Emperor Jun summoned Xiaoyao to try them on. If there is something inappropriate, he can modify it immediately. Xiaoyao went to the side hall, and under the service of four maidservants, she changed into her dress and entered the main hall. The plain white tunic dress outlines a tall and exquisite figure, and is covered with a long gauze gown that sweeps the floor. The gauze gown is embroidered with a picture of a peach blossom and black bird with red and black silk threads. When the gauze gown is unfolded, it looks like Peach blossoms are blooming everywhere.Because the gauze gown dragged on the ground was very long, Xiao Yao was afraid of being tripped, so she kept her eyes fixed and walked very slowly; the long skirt tied her waist tightly, making her almost out of breath When he got angry, his back was forced to straighten.Xiaoyao just felt that the clothes were very annoying, so she couldn't help but pursed her lips tightly, her eyes were slightly displeased. When Xiaoyao walked slowly into the main hall, Liao Shou and the few courtiers in the hall felt a little dazzled. Colorful and gorgeous peach blossoms were blooming behind Xiaoyao. indifferent. Emperor Jun stared at Xiaoyao and sighed inwardly.Xiaoyao at this time really resembles that person, with all kinds of flair and beauty, they are all just a pile of loess under her feet. Xiaoyao stood still, with her hands on her waist, her neck protruding forward like a turtle, and she asked with a sad face, "Father, how long will I wear this dress on the day of the ceremony?" Everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief. Ruo Shou felt that the current Wang Ji was still cute, but he thought evilly that on the day of the celebration, Wang Ji would wear this outfit and walk across the high altar under the bright sun, and then match it with her clothes. Putting on hair accessories and makeup, the effect will definitely be more terrifying than now, and it will definitely shock the guests in the Great Wilderness. Emperor Jun shook his head, "This dress is not good, please do it again!" Xiaoyao was so happy that she almost jumped up, but her waist hurt so much that she couldn't move. How can it be bad if you are stunned?He looked at the other people and found that they were also puzzled, obviously among all the people with eyes, only Emperor Jun and Xiaoyao thought it was bad. Ru Shou stammered and said, "The celebration will be in 15 days. I'm afraid it's impossible to make a dress that can be worn on such an important occasion." Emperor Jun said lightly: "So, this matter will be entrusted to you to supervise." For His Majesty's respect, Ruo Shou's heart almost burst into tears, but on his face he could only respectfully say: "I will definitely do my best!" When Rushou left, Xiao Yao quietly caught up with him, grabbed his shoulders, and whispered, "Be more relaxed." "Don't worry, Wang Ji, the weaving girls will definitely tailor their clothes." Ruo Shou let go of Xiaoyao's hand calmly, not knowing when he and this brother Wang Ji will get back together. Because everyone only knew that Emperor Jun brought Wang Ji back from Yushan, and even the shrewd Lia Shou didn't associate Wen Xiaoliu and Wang Ji together.Xiaoyao laughed dryly, and left feeling a little uncomfortable. As Li Shou sent people to send invitations to various places, the whole Great Wilderness was discussing that the Princess Gao Xin, who had been missing for two or three hundred years, had been found. Emperor Jun didn't like extravagance, he acted low-key, no matter what he did, he seemed to be silent, but this time he even sent invitations to almost all the famous families in the Great Wilderness for his daughter.Even if the families in the Great Wilderness didn’t care about Emperor Jun’s face, they also wanted to see Huang Di’s face, and even if they didn’t care about Huang Di’s face, they also wanted to see the Queen Mother of Yushan’s face, so guests came to Gaoxin from all directions. On the fourteenth day of the midwinter month, Yingzhou in Wushen Mountain was already full of distinguished guests from all over the world. Although Yingzhou is known as one of the Five Gods Mountains, there are actually mountains and islands with restaurants, teahouses, restaurants, and shops on the island. It is warm like spring and flowers are in full bloom. Guests who have never been to Gaoxin are curious to visit. If you want to go to sea to enjoy the sea view, you can also rent a boat to go to sea. Early in the morning, as soon as Xiaoyao got up, Zhuanxu came to find Xiaoyao, "Fenglong and Xinyue are here, I plan to meet them later and show them around." Xiao Yao asked while rinsing her mouth, "As a child of the Qinglong Department, or as Prince Xuanyuan?" "Of course it's Prince Xuanyuan. If I tell you frankly now, they will at most be a little surprised, but they won't feel bad about it. But if they find out my identity by themselves, it will be a real deception." "Go play with you. I have a lot of things to do today, and I have to try on new clothes later. If you come back late, don't come to see me. I have to go to bed early today, so that I can look good tomorrow Bright, not insulting to Gao Xin's national body." Xiaoyao was depressed when thinking about the birth, these days he was torturing her in various ways, Xiaoyao would suspect that he was bought by Anian. "Didn't I hear that it was ready? What happened to the clothes last time?" "It's uncomfortable to wear!" Zhuanxu was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something, turned around and said, "In addition to Jing, his twin elder brother Tu Shanhou is also here in Tu Shan's family. Jing should be with Feng Long, I'm afraid I will take two pairs of twins to play .” Xiaoyao wanted to say something, but decided not to let Zhuanxu preconceive it first, let Zhuanxu form his own judgment on Tu Shanhou, Xiaoyao just waved his hand, signaling Zhuanxu to leave quickly. Zhuanxu said with emotion: "When Jing sees you, he will regret leaving." Xiaoyao didn't understand, and didn't have time to figure it out, so she rushed to eat breakfast, for fear that she wouldn't be able to eat when the harvesters came. When Zhuanxu went to find Fenglong, he was told that both Fenglong and Xinyue had gone to Jing's place.The residences of Tu Shan and Chishui were very close, so Zhuanxu rushed to Jing's residence. In the flower hall, apart from Jing, Hou, Fenglong, and Xinyue, Yiying is also there.Zhuan Xu took a careful look at Hou, he was a very handsome and handsome man. Fenglong and Xinyue were very happy to see Zhuanxu, and Xinyue said to her elder brother, "Look, I knew he would come to see us when he heard we were coming." Feng Leong said with a smile: "You are a good friend!" Feng Long wanted to introduce Zhuan Xu to Hou, Zhuan Xu hurriedly said, "I have something to apologize to you." Feng Leong asked in surprise, "Apologize?" Zhuanxu clarified his identity, and once again apologized to Fenglong, Jing, Xinyue, and Yiying: "I didn't mean to hide it on purpose, but I went to Chishui with the Gaoxin mission that day. If I reveal my identity, it will make everyone Awkward." While Xinyue was surprised, surprise rose from the bottom of her heart. The secret surprise made her heart thump and her cheeks were hot. She lowered her head and didn't speak, looking like she was angry. Feng Long was exactly as Zhuan Xu had expected, he didn't mind after the accident, and said with a smile, "I've long thought that you and Anian's identities are a bit weird, but I didn't expect you to be His Royal Highness, so Anian is..." "Gao Xin's Second Princess." Feng Long raised his eyebrows, "His Royal Highness Wang Ji!" He joked to Jing and Yiying, "See if I'm good enough friends to you? In order to congratulate you, His Royal Highness Wang Ji of Xuanyuan and Gao Xin's Highness Wang Ji are invited. " Zhuanxu hurriedly bowed to them again, "All of you, please forgive me!" Yiying bowed slowly to Zhuanxu in the previous issue, "I didn't know His Highness's identity that day, and I got angry for a while, and didn't want to hurt His Highness, so I beg Your Highness to forgive me." Zhuanxu hurriedly said: "It's not a crime if you don't know, besides, didn't everyone talk about it a long time ago, are you already friends?" Feng Long laughed and tried to persuade Xinyue, "Don't be angry, don't you often hide your identity when you go out to play? It's not intentional deception, it's just for convenience." Yiying hugged Xinyue's shoulders, and smiled to persuade her: "Okay, for His Royal Highness's sake of saluting again, I should forgive him." Xinyue raised her head, glanced around Zhuanxu's face, smiled and said, "Punish him to take us to play today, and he will pay for all the money." Zhuan Xu said, "Of course I left." Zhuanxu led the five people out talking and laughing, planning to take them to eat Gaoxin's local snacks first. The small restaurants on Yingzhou Island are different from the outside, no matter how small they are, they are all very clean and elegant.Because the four seasons are warm and the flowers and plants are easy to live, every small shop likes to plant flowers.Along the way, almost every house has running water in front of the house, and flowers in front of every house, coupled with the white walls, and the polished bluestone floor, the three men are fine, Xinyue and Yiying almost like it Incredibly. Zhuanxu took them into a shop, with green vines hanging from the eaves, fiery red flowers blooming in front of the windows, and a stream of running water in front of the door. The shopkeeper soaked wine, melons and fruits in the stream, and only brought them out when the guests came, and poured them for everyone. Serve with fine wine, cut open the melon and fruit. Zhuanxu introduced: "Central Plains drink alcohol directly, or drink it hot, but people in Gaoxin like to drink iced wine. This is a wine brewed with fruits from the mountains. Try it." Xinyue took a sip and praised, "It's really delicious." Yiying took a sip, stared out of the window, and sighed quietly: "If you can put aside everything and live in such a place for the rest of your life, the two of you will love each other, and your life will not be wasted." Xinyue laughed, "Brother Jing, did you hear that?" Jing's body was stiff, her eyes were downcast, and she didn't say anything.But Hou took a look at Yiying, and drank the fruit wine in one gulp. The store was almost full of people, unlike the Central Plains, perhaps affected by the beautiful and peaceful scenery around, everyone spoke slowly. However, everyone talked about it, and all the people talked about it were Gao Xin Dawangji, from her mysterious disappearance to her mysterious return. The most enviable thing is her identity, the daughter of Emperor Jun, the granddaughter of the Yellow Emperor, and the apprentice of the Queen Mother.Someone sighed: "Whoever marries her will really ascend to heaven in one step." "Maybe she looks like a hag, even if she ascends to the sky, she will have nightmares at night." Several men laughed. Seeing Zhuan Xu smiling, Feng Long knew that he didn't care, so he also asked curiously: "What about your cousin?" Zhuan Xu smiled and said, "When you meet tomorrow, you will know." Xinyue said a little coquettishly: "It's because we are your friends that we know about it earlier than others!" Zhuan Xu said awkwardly, "I don't know what to say either." Women have an unusual attachment to beauty and ugliness. Xinyue tilted her head and asked persistently, "How is she better than Anian?" Zhuanxu pretended to think about it, and then said: "It's like the flowers in the garden. The gardenia has the beauty of the gardenia, and the wind orchid has the beauty of the wind orchid. They are incomparable." Xinyue didn't seem to be satisfied, Yiying smiled and said, "No matter what kind, it looks very beautiful, anyway, it won't be what those people are worried about." Zhuan Xu pointed to a plate of emerald green cold salad on the table, "This is a dish born in the sea, very crisp, you can try it." Feng Leong and Huang understood that he didn't want to talk about his cousin anymore, so they both ate a lot of food, and turned the topic to the difference between Gao Xin and Zhongyuan food.Xinyue and Yiying also ate and commented. Jing put her hands on her knees, clenched into fists tightly, and kept silent. On the fifteenth day of the midwinter month, the guests gathered at Yuanqiao Mountain in Wushen Mountain. Emperor Wang Jun led Wang Ji to offer sacrifices to heaven, earth and ancestors, witnessing the return of Wang Ji to the Gaoxin royal family. No matter how loose Xiaoyao is, she also knows that there are some occasions in life that one cannot be loose, such as today's one.She didn't understand why her father wanted to make such a grand ceremony for her, but she knew that her father must not be ashamed, just like Li Shou repeatedly nagging, every move you make is the face of the people of Gaoxin, if there is a mistake, It was the Gaoxin state body that was humiliated. After waking up in the morning, Xiaoyao washed and bathed first, and then ate something. Then, while the old woman in the palace combed her hair and put on makeup, she listened to the waiter repeat every link of the day again. In the middle, Zhuanxu came to see her, and comforted her not to be nervous, saying that Gao Xin's etiquette was so complicated that no one really knew, even if there was a small mistake, as long as she was calm enough, no one would notice. Xiaoyao knew that he was going to represent the Yellow Emperor to participate in the ceremony today, and he had a lot of things to do, so let him go on his own. After Xiaoyao combed her hair and put on her makeup, Liao Shou was already waiting outside the hall to pick her up. The maids brought the gowns and prepared to help Xiaoyao get dressed. Xiaoyao quite likes this new dress, because time is too short and there is no time for gorgeous and complicated embroidery, so the dress has to work hard on the materials and accessories. The plain white satin with moiré patterns and the jasper ring pendant are noble and dignified, far away. It is more comfortable to wear than the first dress. Almost exclaimed as the maids unfolded their gowns.Xiaoyao looked back and found that the hem of the dress was a little torn, and there were several spots of stains.After checking it, the maid who knew how to clean it said angrily, "This is the juice of the spiritual grass planted in Penglai, and it cannot be washed off." The faces of all the people in the room were pale. Emperor Jun had a cold temper and rarely got angry, but once he got angry, it was the most painful nightmare.Many maids began to cry silently. Xiaoyao sighed, this Anian is really daring.She casually put on a robe, and said to a maid who was still standing still: "Hurry up and call Mr. Lishou in, and see if there is a remedy." Li Shou came in in a hurry, didn't even bother to salute, went straight to look at the dress, his face changed, he yelled and asked: "Who did it? If I find out, I must kill her whole family!" Xiao Yao, who was sitting on the couch, said quietly: "Then you have to count father as well." Ru Shou held his breath in his chest, and blurted out: "A Nian, this little bastard, she wants our lives!" The maidservants in the room couldn't bear it anymore, and many of them cried out. Ru Shou pointed at Xiaoyao's nose, and cursed in a trembling voice: "Don't look innocent! It's definitely not the first time Ah Nian has done this. If you hadn't been conniving all the time, the trouble wouldn't have happened today! You two sisters are making trouble. , something happened, but we want our heads!" The cries of the maidservants suddenly became louder, and some of them fell limply to the ground. Xiaoyao rubbed her nose and said with a wry smile: "I told you, Mr. Rushou, you just have to act like a show. Don't you just want me to cooperate with your proposal! I just cooperate obediently!" Li Shou immediately calmed down, and smiled and saluted Xiaoyao, "There is indeed a remedy. Wang Ji should still remember the first dress, right?" "Yeah." Xiaoyao had thought of it a long time ago, so she ordered someone to call Liao in. Ruo Shou said helplessly: "Now I can only wear that suit. It's just that His Majesty doesn't like that dress very much. It's impossible to discuss with His Majesty now. We can only make up our own minds. In case His Majesty blames me..." "I'll bear it!" Xiaoyao looked at Rushou with a smile, her sly eyes seemed to say, isn't this what Master Rushou intends? Rushou chuckled, these days because of the ceremony, she had to see this princess almost every day, after getting along, Rushou somewhat understood Emperor Jun's love for her. Ruo Shou saluted and left, "I ordered people to prepare immediately." When the maids in the room heard that there was another set of dresses, they were all surprised and stunned.Xiaoyao clapped her hands, "Okay, just do what you have to do, don't worry, you have also heard the promise I made to Master Li Shou just now, I will stand up for things." Everyone woke up, wiped away their tears, and hurriedly got to work. The person who saw the first dress that day immediately directed the hairdressing and makeup maids to adjust the hair accessories and makeup.When it was tidied up here, Liao Shou personally brought over the gown with someone. Eight maidservants helped Xiaoyao to dress. When she tied her waist, one maid gave an order, and the two maids worked hard together. Xiaoyao was in pain. Moaning: "It's really going to break." The eight skillful maids walked around like flowers and butterflies, and finally dressed Xiaoyao properly. Ru Shou urged outside, "Auspicious day is coming soon, are you ready?" "Okay, okay!" The maids replied. Xiaoyao walked out stiffly, and the four maids bent their knees and bowed their waists, holding their long robes behind them. Ru Shou didn't dare to be contemptuous, and bowed to ask Xiaoyao to get on the cloud chariot. Two clever maids climbed into the carriage first, supported Wang Ji on top, and two maids supported under the carriage, and the four of them worked together to help Xiaoyao onto the cloud chariot. Xiaoyao didn't have the heart to speak, she closed her eyes and silently recalled the process of the ceremony. When the cloud chariot arrived at the altar, several maids helped Xiaoyao out of the car and into the cloud tent, and the maids checked Xiaoyao's makeup for the last time.Ru Shou walked in and said in a deep voice, "Wang Ji, no matter how many people look at you, as long as you don't look at them, they don't exist." Xiao Yao glanced at him, "I see you are more nervous than me." There was a bell ringing, Liao Shou said to Xiaoyao: "The time has come." Xiaoyao took a deep breath and said to herself: It's nothing, my father is waiting for me at the top of the altar, it's no different from that day when I was trying on clothes, but it's just an extra step. Xiaoyao walked out of the cloud tent slowly, and the maids quickly adjusted the hem of her robe. The entire altar is built with white jade, with a total of 99 steps, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. It stands majestically on the top of Yuanqiao Mountain. In addition, the Gaoxin soldiers in full armor standing around the altar make people feel awe and awe.So the guests were all wearing solemn dresses, standing on the viewing platform, and looking at the altar quietly. With a smile on the corner of Ah Nian's mouth, he waited gloatingly. Zhuanxu was calm and looking forward to it, this moment was not only Xiaoyao's return, but also his return. Jing has expectations. He has hoped to see Xiao Liu's true face countless times, and now he finally wants to see it, but he is more nervous. Standing here, hidden among countless guests, makes him feel very far away from her. At this time, the red sun was hanging high, its rays were shining brightly, and the bell was ringing melodiously. A young girl slowly stepped onto the altar. The black hair is piled up on the temples, and the plain white tunic dress outlines the tall figure exquisitely. It is covered with a long gauze gown that sweeps the floor. On the gauze gown is embroidered with peach blossoms and black birds with red and black silk threads. , as she walked, the gauze gown unfolded on the white jade steps, and the crimson peach blossoms spread from her waist, blooming colorfully, until the jade steps were covered with scorching and dazzling peach blossoms. The girl walked leisurely as the bell rang. She raised her head slightly and looked towards the top of the altar. Her skin was as snowy as the snow, her face was clear and beautiful, and there was a small crimson peach blossom on her forehead, which was soul-stirring.All the people in the wilderness came for her, but she had a cold expression, the corners of her lips were tightly pursed, and there was no smile at all, and there was displeasure and impatience in her eyes, even a little sarcasm. I don't know if it's the gorgeous sunshine of the day, or the colorful peach blossoms all over the place. Everyone is a little dizzy. They just feel that all kinds of romance are just a handful of loess under her feet. Both Zhuanxu and Jing were in the front and could see the most clearly.Zhuanxu was a little angry, but he didn't know what he was angry about.Jing only felt that all the splendor in front of her eyes had turned into anxiety, her hands clenched tightly into fists, as if she wanted to grab something hard, but she didn't grab anything. Xiaoyao slowly stood in front of Emperor Jun, kowtowed to Emperor Jun, Emperor Jun sighed secretly, many times fate has its own track, and no manpower can stop it. Emperor Jun took Xiaoyao to worship heaven and earth first, and then Gaoxin's ancestors. Xiaoyao's mind was blank, and he only knew how to bow and bow in the tedious prayers.Thanks to the many days of training, in a state of numbness, she actually did better than usual, Xiaoyao laughed inwardly, the more this kind of thing is a puppet, the more people think you know how to behave. Until the end, when Xiaoyao felt that her body was completely stiff, she finally heard Uncle Da Zong announce the end of the sacrificial ceremony.The guests left one by one under the leadership of the waiter. After getting on the cloud chariot, Xiaoyao breathed a long sigh of relief, and Emperor Jun asked, "Are you tired?" Xiao Yao nodded, and Emperor Jun said: "When you go back, change your clothes and have a good rest, you can come to the banquet at night if you want, it doesn't matter if you don't want to." "Father, aren't you tired?" Xiao Yao didn't have to go, but Emperor Jun had to, but Emperor Jun didn't like to socialize. "I am used to it." Xiao Yao said: "Father, don't you ask me why I wore this dress that you don't like very much?" "It must be Ah Nian who broke the dress." Xiao Yao laughed, "I knew you knew what Anian did." "I knew this earlier, so I shouldn't have ignored it, but now... Ah Nian is just using arrogance to cover up her inferiority complex and fear. When there is only her, she is the only one. Don't worry about it. When she has you, she will compare herself with you. The only one The ones who can make her feel at ease are me and Zhuanxu, I don't want her to think that I am partial, but I can only be more in favor of her than in the past. And I think...some things are between you sisters, and you should solve them yourself." Xiao Yao can understand Ah Nian's fear, fearing that she will steal away her father and elder brother, but is she inferior?Xiaoyao laughed at herself and said, "I will solve this matter, I just thought, let her vent enough, I will deal with her." Emperor Jun even sighed, "In my life, I exchanged all I have for what I want. I have regrets but no regrets. The only ones who care about me should be you two sisters. If you can sincerely accept each other and take care of each other, I have nothing to worry about.” It is rare for Emperor Jun to show his sad emotions, which made Xiao Yao feel a little uncomfortable, but the chance between people is very wonderful, not one will have the intention, but the other will have the intention, Xiao Yao has no confidence that she and Anian can be fathers What she expected, she couldn't promise her father, but she would try her best. The cloud chariot stopped at Cheng'en Palace, and Emperor Jun returned to Zhaohui Palace. After a brief wash and change, he had a short rest before going to Yiqing Garden for a dinner party.Xiaoyao went back to Minser Hall. Knowing her temper, the maids quickly helped her take off the dress, and then quickly helped her remove her makeup.After finishing, Xiaoyao took a hot bath and felt alive from head to toe. Xiaoyao no longer envied her slender waist, so she asked the maid to find a loose dress to wear. She lay on her back, and let the maid help her comb her hair.A maid helped her gently massage her scalp to relax, Xiaoyao was so comfortable that she slowly fell asleep. On Xiaoyao's side, she fell asleep carelessly, but she didn't know that many young people in Yiqing Garden were talking about her. Xinyue and Yiying grabbed Zhuanxu and babbled: "Call your cousin out, we want to get to know her." Feng Long and the young masters of the aristocratic family did not speak, but they all looked at Zhuan Xu eagerly, Zhuan Xu said with a headache, "She has a weird temper, I'm afraid she won't come out." One of Jiang's disciples said, "Of course we know she has a temper, or do we need to find you?" Xinyue said to Zhuanxu: "Are you all friends? In the future we say you are our friend, and people ask, do you know his cousin? Don't we say we know her, but she doesn't know us?" Everyone was chattering, but Zhuanxu couldn't help it, and asked Jing who was standing aside for help, "Help me persuade them." Jing, who had been silent all this time, said, "Don't embarrass Zhuanxu." Feng Long immediately smiled and said: "That's right, that's right, everyone, don't make it difficult for Zhuanxu, there will be opportunities to get to know each other in the future, so don't worry about it." Xinyue and Yiying didn't speak anymore, and the others didn't dare to tease them any more, feeling bored, they all walked away to play elsewhere. Zhuanxu thanked Jing quietly, but Jing suddenly said, "I want to see Xiaoyao." The emotions in Zhuanxu's eyes changed, he pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "I can only deliver a message for you, whether you are with her or not." Jing said: "Thank you, please tell her that I will wait for her outside the keel prison at the bottom of the mountain." Zhuan Xu was puzzled, and said with a smile, "Secret is enough, but it doesn't seem like a good place to meet girls." Jing bowed, and said softly, "I'm sorry to trouble you." After finishing speaking, he found an opportunity to leave quietly. Zhuanxu sent his confidants to meet Xiaoyao. Xiaoyao just woke up and was eating, when she heard the attendant report that "Seventeen is waiting outside the Dragon Bone Prison", Xiaoyao was a little happy, a little worried and a little nervous, she couldn't tell what it was like. She slowly finished the food in the bowl, rinsed her mouth carefully, and told the servant girl as calmly as possible: "I want to change clothes to meet the guests, please help me choose a better one." It was the first time that the maidservants heard that Wang Ji asked to dress up, and they all became as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. They immediately took out all the clothes and showed Wang Ji one by one. They chirped and discussed, and it took a long while to pick out three pieces, "The moonlight is very beautiful tonight, and these three sets of clothes must look good." Xiaoyao said awkwardly: "Can you not tie your waist?" The maid Zi Bei immediately said, "It's nighttime, the light is not good, and I'm wearing loose clothes. At first glance, I look like a pregnant woman." Another maidservant Shan Shan smiled and said: "Wang Ji, we can't wear such clothes if we want, because the waist is not thin enough and the legs are not long enough, so it doesn't look good. You look so good in it, why don't you want to wear it?" Xiao Yao asked, "Is it really pretty?" All the maidservants nodded in unison, Xiaoyao thought that this was the first time she saw Jing with a woman's appearance, and decided to look good or not to be comfortable. Xiaoyao picked out a plain white dress, the cuffs and the inner layer of the skirt were embroidered with green vines, which would show a little when walking, adding a bit of playfulness.The maid helped her tie up her hair in a loose bun again, and on the hairpin was an emerald walker. As she walked, the emeralds swayed and swayed, just echoing the embroidery on the sleeves and skirt. Xiaoyao walked a few steps, all the maidservants nodded in satisfaction, Coral looked around, rushed to rummage in the suitcase, took out a long green embroidered gauze shawl, put it on Xiaoyao's shoulder, walked around The waist is twisted between the arms, and then let the gauze hang down naturally. Xiaoyao walked a few steps and felt cumbersome, but all the maids were amazed and clapped their hands together, "Wang Ji, hurry up and meet the person you want to see, make sure he will never forget you again." Xiaoyao's face burned a little, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just went to meet an ordinary friend." So the maidservant couldn't help laughing, she was ordinary, so ordinary that Wang Ji was willing to bother to dress herself up. Xiaoyao went down the mountain in a cloud chariot, but when she was about to arrive, she asked the driver to stop the car. Tonight is the night of the full moon, the moonlight is really good, the silver light falls on the treetops, and sprinkles on the bluestone path.小夭踏着月色，一个人慢慢地走着，距离山脚已不远，海潮拍打礁石的声音隐隐传来。 绕过一丛灌木，小夭看到了站在礁岩上的男子。 他面朝着大海，静静地等候，不知道已经等了多久，也不知道还能等多久。 在这里等她的是叶十七。 小夭心里的那些恼怒渐渐地消失了，只余了喜悦和紧张。 小夭越发放轻了脚步，悄悄地走近他。 在拜祭仪式上，阿念本来一直幸灾乐祸地等着看小夭的笑话，没想到小夭最后穿的礼服比她毁掉的那一套更华美、更精致，简直是让整个大荒都为之侧目。 阿念差点想冲出去，撕毁小夭的礼服，毁掉小夭的妆容，毁掉小夭也毁掉自己，但母亲紧紧地抓住了她，眼中含着恐惧和哀求，她可以蛮横地对任何人，唯独没有办法那样对母亲。 阿念只能闭着眼睛，默默地忍受到整个祭拜仪式结束。 她送了母亲回宫，却觉得自己在承恩殿再待不下去。从小夭回来后，这座宫殿不再是完全属于她的家。 阿念策着玄鸟坐骑，离开了承恩宫，她不知道自己想做什么，她只是想暂时地逃离，不想听到所以的欢声笑语都只是为了小夭。 玄鸟漫无目的地飞着，阿念累了，玄鸟停在了大海中不知名的小礁石岛上。礁石岛小得比一艘船大不了多少，阿念抱膝坐着，看着浪潮从四面八方涌来，碎裂在她身旁，像怪兽一般发出轰鸣声，往常她早就害怕了，可今夜她不觉得害怕，甚至觉得最好真有一只怪兽出来，反正父王和哥哥有了小夭，他们都不再关心她。她觉得最好她被怪兽咬成重伤，奄奄一息时，父王和哥哥才找到她。他们痛苦自责内疚，可是已经晚了！阿念从幻想父王和哥哥在发现要失去她的痛苦中得到了些许报复的快感。 又一波浪潮涌来，一个白衣白发、戴着银色面具的男子坐在浪潮上，微笑地看着阿念，柔声说：“很痛苦吗？你的父亲和哥哥都抛弃了你。” 阿念认出了他，是那个和小六一起绑架过她的九命相柳。也许因为上次所以的坏事都是小六做的，相柳给阿念的印象并不坏，阿念很紧张，却并不害怕。 阿念问：“你怎么在这里？” 相柳笑，“你说呢？整个大荒都在谈论高辛大王姬，我自然也有点好奇，所以来凑个热闹。” 又是小夭，又是小夭！阿念重重哼了一声。 相柳微笑着说：“如果没有她，你仍是高辛独一无二的王姬，是父王唯一的女儿，是哥哥唯一的妹妹，可是她莫名其妙地跑饿了出来，夺走了你的一切，难道你不想报复她吗？” 阿念紧咬着唇，不吭声。她知道她不该和相柳做交易，哥哥曾恼怒地骂过他是魔头，可是……这天下没有做不成的交易，只有还不够分量的诱惑。 阿念挣扎着说：“我是恨她，可我没想让她死，我只是想一切都恢复到以前。” 相柳柔声说：“我承认我有可能想杀轩辕的王子，但绝不会杀高辛的王姬，我们神农义军绝不想得罪俊帝。” 阿念知道，所以她并不怕他。 相柳凝视着阿念的眼睛，温柔地提议：“你觉得好好折磨她一番，却不取她的性命，怎么样？” 阿念慢慢地点了下头。 相柳笑，“你真是个善良的女孩子，你的父王和哥哥应该更偏爱你才对。” 阿念觉得这么长时间以来，终于听到了一句顺心的话，她问：“怎么才能给她一个狠狠的教训？” 相柳说：“只要你能把她引出来，不要被人察觉，剩下的事情交给我。” 阿念问：“你为什么要帮我？你想要我帮你做什么？” 相柳微笑着说：“你是高辛王姬，什么都不缺，难得有一件我能为你效劳的事，我当然很乐意。你也知道我们神农义军的处境，如果日后有可能，希望王姬能帮我一次。” 阿念笑问：“你都不要我发誓，你不怕我反悔吗？” 相柳笑看着她，温柔又郑重地说：“我相信你。” 阿念甜甜地笑起来，“好！你帮我狠狠教训她一番，我日后帮你一次。” 相柳把一枚贝壳递给阿念，“把她引到海上，捏碎这个，我就会赶到。” 阿念收好了贝壳，策玄鸟返回。 小夭一边喜悦地眺望着礁岩上的人影，一边忐忑地走着。突然，一枚小石子砸到她背上，小夭回身，看到阿念远远地站着，冲她挥了挥手，好像要她过去。小夭朝着阿念走过去，阿念却一转身，消失在了树丛中。 小夭蹙眉，回头望了一眼海边，循着阿念消失的方向追了上去。 阿念的身影在树林中时隐时现，她自小在五神山长大，远比小夭更熟悉五神山，她的灵力又比小夭高很多，只要她想，甩掉小夭很容易。小夭已经看出来阿念在故意逗引她，不过，她倒要看看阿念究竟想干什么。 她们从树林里的小道穿过，来到了山的另一面，阿念站在海边的悬崖上冲小夭挥手。 小夭慢慢地走过去，“你想干什么？” 阿念从头到脚地仔细打量了小夭一番，表情十分复杂。小夭也在打量阿念，猜不透阿念想做什么，就算阿念把她从悬崖上推下去，也摔不死她。 阿念捏碎了贝壳，突然向小夭冲了过来，小夭叹气，“你不是真想把我推下去吧？”她想闪避逃开，阿念用冰剑封锁住小夭的退路，站在了小夭背后。 阿念诡秘地说：“你猜对了！” 小夭想杀阿念，有办法，可她想打过阿念，却没有办法。于是，小夭只能感觉到背部有一股大力袭来，她的身子飞出了悬崖。 小夭并不惊怕，很小时，她就敢站在悬崖边往海里跳了，小夭甚至很享受在落入大海前这一段自由自在的飞翔。 海风吹起了小夭的青丝，拂起了她身上的绿色纱罗，她像一只蝴蝶一般，张开了绿色的翅膀，飞舞向大海。 小夭舒展了身躯，惬意地眯着眼睛，突然，她的眼睛瞪大了。 皎洁的月光下，深蓝的大海波光粼粼，一个白衣白发的人仰躺在一起一伏的浪潮上，他正挑着唇角，笑看着她，就如欣赏一支只为他而舞的舞蹈。 小夭想逃，可半空中，她唯一的方向只能是向下，她只能眼睁睁地看着自己和他越来越接近、越来越接近，就在她以为她会直接砸到相柳身上时，他下沉，她落入了海水中，他双手抓住了她的手，她只能被他拽向海底。 他带着她在海底游动，小夭觉得相柳不可能想杀了她，而是故意折磨，可是她只能忍受。 胸中的最后一口气已经吐完，小夭抓着他的手，哀求地看着他，他不理她，依旧往更深的海底游去。小夭憋得好似整个胸膛都要炸开，她的手上已经没有了力气，手指松口，相柳揽住了她的腰，笑指了指自己的唇，他在说，想要新鲜的空气，就自己来吸。 小夭摇头，以前，她是玟小六，她从没把自己当女人，怎么都无所谓，可现在，她做不到。 相柳唇边的笑意消失，抱住小夭，继续下沉。 他看着小夭，小夭看着他。 相柳加速了下沉，小夭开始明白，面对一个什么都不在乎的九头妖时，高辛王姬的身份并不能庇佑她。 相柳越沉越快，看似至柔的水却产生了恐怖的力量，要把小夭挤成粉末，胸腔好似要炸开，小夭全身都在剧痛。 生与死，只是一个简单的选择。 两人的面孔很近，近得几乎鼻尖碰着鼻尖，小夭只需稍稍往前一点，就能贴到他的唇。 可是，她不能！ 小夭觉得海水好像灌进了她的耳鼻，他的唇那么近，那么近……小夭失去了意识，昏死过去。 相柳用力摁着她的头，狠狠地把她摁到了自己唇边，带着她向上浮。 两人浮出了海面。 相柳平坐在水面，曲起一腿，把昏死的小夭抬起，让她俯趴在他腿上，他掌含灵力，用力拍了小夭的后背几下，小夭哇一声张开了口，狂呕了几口水，人渐渐地醒了。但全身酸软，脑袋晕沉，一动不能动，她闭着眼睛，无力地俯在相柳腿上。 休息了大半晌，小夭才真正清醒。她扶着相柳的膝盖，慢慢地撑起了身子，估计因为有相柳的灵力支撑，身下的水像是个极软的垫子，她的动作会让她略微下陷，却不会让她沉下去。 相柳面无表情，一直盯着她，却不说话，小夭更不知道该说什么。 他们在茫茫大海中，四周是无比无涯的黑暗，就好似整个世界只剩下了他们两人。 小夭终于开口说道：“本来我是打算，以后见了你，装作不认识的。” “我体内还有你的蛊，你想赖掉你发的誓吗？” 小夭说：“按道理来说，只能我感应到你，你应该感应不到我，你怎么知道我是玟小六的？” 相柳抬手，把小夭脸上的湿发都拨到了脑后，捧着她的头，仔仔细细地看着她的脸，“这就是你的真容？” "Ok." “你很会骗人。” 小六为自己辩解，“不算骗，我是真把自己当成了玟小六。” “高辛王姬？”相柳冷笑，“难怪当日你突然间死也要就颛顼。” 小夭不敢再吭声了。 相柳的手好似无意地搭在她肩上，手指轻扫着她的脖颈，循循善诱地说：“你说过的话里还有哪些是假的？不如今日一次坦白了，我不会杀你的。” “我早和你说过，我只说废话，不说假话。”小夭摊摊手，“我喜欢说话，是因为怕寂寞，如果我满嘴谎话，只会越说越寂寞。” 相柳原本已经变得有点锋利的指甲无声无息地恢复了原样，小夭完全不知道刚才那一瞬间她真正和死亡擦肩而过。 相柳默默地凝望着漆黑的虚空，不知道在想什么，整个人如一把没有了剑柄的剑，锋利孤绝得世间没有一人可以接近。 小夭也不知为何，明明在水面上，可竟然觉得自己好像又沉在了水底，胸口憋闷得很。她突然想起了什么，掏出湿淋淋的荷包，拿出一个小玉瓶，倒出一把五颜六色的药丸，摊在掌心给相柳看，“要不要尝尝？” 相柳像吃糖豆子一样，慢慢地一颗颗都放进了嘴里。 “怎么样？这可是我特意为你炼制的，查阅了很多资料，找了好多稀罕药材。” 相柳身上的冷厉骤然淡了，“凑合。” “还是凑合啊？”小夭简直快哭了，“好多药草可是种在蓬莱岛上，用归墟水眼的水浇灌，长了千八百年的。” 相柳淡淡说：“你还一直想毒倒我？” 小夭晃晃脑袋，“想我一代毒神，连九尾狐妖都能毒倒，没有道理毒不倒你这九头妖啊！” 相柳不屑地笑，“我等着。” 小夭感觉两人之间的气氛不再那么剑拨弩张，小心翼翼地问：“你怎么和阿念搅到一起去了？” "Can't you?" 小夭抓住了相柳的衣襟，很严肃地说：“不行！你别再去招惹她了，她被我父王保护得太好，禁不住你这种人的撩拨。” 相柳身子前倾，笑笑地问：“我这种人？我是哪种人？” 小夭白了他一眼，“你自己心里清楚。” 相柳不在意地说：“她还没当你是姐姐，你倒着急地先当起了好姐姐。” “人与人之间的关系，总要有一个人先跨出一步，男女之间就不用说了，连父母和儿女都是如此，在儿女无知无觉时，父母就要开始付出。我向来自私，绝不肯做先跨出一步的人，但我和阿念之间，我决定做先跨出一步的一方。倒不是因为她有多好、多值得，而是因为我父王和颛顼，我愿意为父王和颛顼对阿念先付出。” “不是付出就会有回报。她能把你出卖给我，就能把你出卖给别人。她这次能把你推出悬崖，下次也许就能把匕首插进你心口。” “我知道，所以这种事情我也只肯做一次。” 相柳说：“我答应你不再去逗你妹妹，你也要答应我一件事情。” “我能说不吗？” "Obviously not." 小夭眨着眼睛看相柳，摆出洗耳恭听的样子。 相柳说：“继续帮我做毒药。” 这很简单，小夭爽快地答应了，“可以。可是……怎么交给你呢？我现在可不是在清水镇上了，你又不能去山上找我。” 相柳笑着说：“这就是你需要考虑的问题了，反正我要是太长时间没看到你的药，我就去找你妹妹。” 下药嘟囔，“我就知道你不会这么容易绕过我。” 相柳说：“我已经饶了你。” 小夭撇撇嘴。 相柳冷哼了一声，突然问：“为什么？” 小夭明白他在问为什么宁死都不肯亲他一下，却故意装糊涂，“什么为什么？” 相柳握住她胳膊，往下沉，小夭忙大叫：“哦，想起来了，想起来了。” 相柳盯着她，小夭说：“我害怕。” “会比死更可怕？” 小夭思索了一会儿才慢慢地说：“我哥哥，就是颛顼了，有一天晚上我们聊天时，他笑我毕竟还是个会做梦的女孩子。虽然只是、只是……可我怕一不小心，你会走进我梦里，而你……”小夭摇摇头，“绝不适合出现在女孩子的梦里，那只怕真的比死还可怕。” 相柳轻声笑起来，渐渐地，越笑越大声，他放开了小夭，身子向着远处飘去。 小夭大叫：“喂、喂……你别丢下我啊，你把我丢在这里，我怎么回去啊？” 相柳笑道：“游回去！” 小夭脸色都变了，“你让我从这里游回去？这可是深海，海兽海怪四处出没，我灵力低微，随便一只海怪都能吃了我！” 相柳笑眯眯地说：“我这也是为了你好，万一我对你太温柔体贴了，一不小心入了你的梦，让你生不如死，岂不罪过？”相柳说完，慢慢沉入海底，消失不见。 小夭还是不相信，叫道：“相柳，相柳，九命！九头怪！死魔头！死九头怪魔头……” 大海一起一伏，天地寂寥无声。 小夭只觉得海的颜色变得更黑暗了，她打了个寒战，辨别了一下方向，一边咒骂相柳，一边向着五神山的方向游去。 刚开始还害怕有什么海兽突然冒出来，咬断她的腿，时间久了，依旧看不到陆地，小夭担心的不是被咬死，而是被淹死了。 她为了节约每一分精力，不敢再胡思乱想，保持大脑一片空白，什么都不想，仿佛修炼时的入定，身体则保持一个固定的节奏不停地划水。 刚开始，还能感觉到因为疲惫而产生的身体酸痛，可渐渐地，一切都消失，天不是天，海也不是海，甚至感受不到自己的存在，一切都成了求生的本能，只是在一团黏稠中向前、一直向前、永不停歇地向前。
