In terms of beauty, you can't beat me

Xia Xun ran to my side to separate Han Jue, took off his outer robe and put it on me, twisted the water that was just above my sleeves, and asked concerned: "Is it cold?"

I pushed Xia Xun away, and looked at Qi Rongyu sitting on the chariot with hatred.

Looking at the corpses floating on the lake, the palace servants behind him immediately shouted: "There are corpses!"

There was a panic, but Qi Rongyu retreated calmly, Han Jue and Xia Xun had no choice but to leave even if they didn't want to.

Qi Rongyu looked at me condescendingly, and I looked directly at the past without admitting defeat.

After a long time, Jinshang smiled and said: "What's the matter, brother?" Then he came to me.

I used all my strength to grab his throat, my eyes were red: "Why did you kill my brother!"

"I didn't harm him, it was him who wanted to reverse the situation!" Qi Rongyu's eyes were also a little red.

"It's your delusion to force the palace!" I said angrily.

Qi Rongyu smiled instead: "Delusion to force the palace? Then do you know how I survived since I was a child! I was scolded as a bastard since I was a child, and my mother was scolded as a ****. Isn't it all the same? Thanks to that father of yours!" When he mentioned the past, his eyes were a little red: "Before my mother died, she was still talking about that heartless man, it was your father who betrayed my mother's life, shouldn't I hate it?! "

The first time I heard this, I was a little dazed and couldn't think of a word to say. Qi Rongyu put his hand on my cheek: "My good brother, if it weren't for me, maybe you would also be a ghost in this lotus pond Already!"

So, I have to thank him for saving his life?

I was a little crazy: "Why didn't you kill me, why!"

"You have a good idea! The reason why your imperial brother died was because he was too stupid, but you are different. Although you are also stupid, you still have this face. Xia Xun and Han Jue both love this face so much face." As he spoke, he became thinner.

I let go of him abruptly, and took two quick steps back: "Presumptuous!"

Qi Rongyu laughed loudly: "Yes, yes, I am presumptuous."

I turned around and said, "Since you avenged your mother, it's time for me to avenge my brother! I will do whatever it takes to avenge my brother!"

Qi Rongyu put away his smile: "Okay, I'll just sit alone above ten thousand people and wait for your revenge!"

I wrapped Xia Xun's outer robe tightly, strode out of the palace, stopped after a few steps, and said, "The boxes today are all things that His Majesty left on me in the past. Today I returned them all." You, you and I are settled."

Two days later after returning home, that is, on the third day of the Lunar New Year, the eldest son of the emperor was born, and Han Jue was busy and happy to be an uncle.

I sat on the porch and watched Xia Xun talking with Ning Feng and Xi Yu.

Xia Xun picked up a piece of ice colored glass and brought it to me, expectantly: "Look at this piece of colored glass, does it look good?"

I didn't want to disturb his interest, so I said casually: "It looks good."

"It looks good, why don't you smile?" Then he made a grimace.

"Would you like to be the king of Xia Kingdom?" I looked at him and asked.

"What are the benefits of being the king of the Xia Kingdom?"

Another dark cloud came from afar, and I looked at it and said, "The advantage of being a king is that the whole world is yours."

"Then are you mine?" came again.

But this time I didn't intend to reject him. I smiled and said, "Isn't it said that beauties love heroes? My king also loves heroes."

"I will fight for whatever you love, but will you follow me to Xiaguo by then?"

I took the half-melted glass in his hand, the ice was biting to the bone, and the unmelted ice glass continued to melt into water in my hand, dripping down along my fingertips.Xia Xun was still waiting for my answer, so I said, "Yes."

Xia Xun asked carefully and quietly: "Really?"

"Really!" I said firmly.

Xia Xun's flustered look was a bit ridiculous, he wiped his red hands from the cold on his clothes, put them to his lips and let out a breath, until he warmed up, he gently held my face and placed a light kiss on my forehead , a thin layer of mist appeared in his eyes: "I finally waited until you promised me!"

"I heard that your father is ill these few days, when will you go back and have a look?"

"What?" Xia Xun was a little unbelievable, and then hurriedly turned around and left the mansion: "When my father recovers from illness, I will come to see you again!"

Looking at Xia Xun's figure gradually disappearing into the snow, I called Ning Feng and Xi Yu, and said, "Go and get the half of jade in my room."

The tentacles of that half piece of jade are warm and moist, and there are traces of my accidental knocking on it when I was a child, and it feels a little chrome to the touch.

In the past, when my father first met my mother, he gave this half piece of jade as a gift, and after I was born, my mother gave it to me again.I then ordered the palace servants to wear a net and put it on as a decoration. When I was young, I liked to be flirtatious, so I tied it around my waist every day.

At that time, my father would still hug me on his lap, pointing to the half tiger talisman on the table and saying: "Is this thing good-looking?"

Looking at the intricate and detailed patterns on the Tiger Talisman, I said, "It's beautiful."

"The Siyi should remember that the queen mother also has a piece! With that half piece of Siyi, you can do whatever you want!"

Later, Qi Rong and usurped the throne successfully, and I was imprisoned in the mansion with nothing to do day and night. I cleaned up old things all day long, and accidentally discovered this secret.It was only then that I realized that my father and emperor loved my mother so much that I used half of the country as my mother's betrothal gift.

Now that this piece of jade has seen the light of day again, it's time to use it.I ordered Ning Feng and Xi Yu to prepare the carriage and go to Liu Xiang's residence in the evening.

The snow rustled and fell, reflecting a bright light between the sky and the earth.

When he arrived at Xiangfu, Liu Yuan was fishing on the white jade stone bridge. A hole was smashed in the thick ice, and a little bait attracted carps in the lake to show their faces.

Liu Yuan looked at me from a distance, and said in a neutral tone: "His Royal Highness has really come."

I stopped by the lake and looked at Liu Yuan in the middle of the lake: "Yes, this king is here."

The fish had already been hooked, and Liu Yuan tried his best to pull it. The fish was thrown out of the gills by the hook and thrown ashore, and the bloody smell rushed to his face.

Liu wished to touch the dying carp on the ground: "Your Highness, do you think this fish is ridiculous? Even though you know you can't escape, you still struggle."

Liu Yuan's voice was very low, it sounded like he was talking to himself, I led Ning Feng and Xi Yu and was about to walk to Liu Xiang's residence, when I heard Liu Yuan say: "Your Highness, why bother to cling to the past!" His voice became louder, I stopped in surprise.

"Because the person who was killed was my elder brother." I looked at him and said.

"His Majesty is dead, even if he dies today, he will not be able to return to His Majesty!"

I smiled coldly: "I know."

"Did Your Highness bring Han Jue and Xia Xun into this just to avenge His Highness?" Liu Yuan's voice became louder, which made my head hurt a little.

"This king will never involve innocent people. As for Xia Xun, this king will compensate him." I said lightly.

"Compensation? Didn't His Highness come here today to discuss with my father how to make King Xia die?"

Liu Yuan was very smart when he was studying with me, and it seems that he is not at a disadvantage today.

"This king will hand over the throne of Xia to him."

Liu Yuan put away the fishing rod and walked towards me with the basket on his back: "Not everyone wants to be king."

I turned my head and said, "But this king looks very happy doing it today."

Liu Yuan stopped in front of me, his eyes were red and swollen, and begged: "Your Highness, stop."

I took two steps forward, staggering his gaze: "The former emperor passed away, Qi Rong and ascended the throne, and this king was imprisoned in the mansion for two and a half years, unable to move an inch, eating rotten and stinky leftovers; Qi Rong and ascended the throne One year, this king fell ill in the middle of the night, and he could not live without dying. If he wanted to live, he had to drink a medicinal soup mixed with meth; after two and a half years, he died silently. This king and Lord Liu Xiang lived together without incense Ju, I was forced to drink the medicine mixed with a sprig of Artemisia xueding. I slowly looked at Liu Yuan standing in front of me: "Shutong, I think I have never lied to this king. What, even at the New Year's Eve dinner that day, he was still thinking about how to get rid of Liu Xiang and keep everything safe.But look at what this king got? "

Liu Yuan looked at me with pitiful eyes like a cat and dog: "Your Highness!"

I closed my eyes and let out a long breath, the cold air rushed into my lungs and my chest hurt a little, and I looked at Liu Yuan mockingly: "Why is it only natural for him to do these evil things, and this king has to do these things. Falling into hell forever?"

"Your Highness, stop before you start!"

I was startled, and then laughed loudly: "It doesn't matter whether it's eternal fall or thousands of people scolding and hating this king. But Qi Rong and don't want to live so easily, as long as this king is here, he I will not live in peace for a day!"

Liu Yuan knelt on the ground neatly, bowed his head and said, "Your Highness!"

I pinched his chin with my fingers, and tears came out of laughter: "I never thought that the mighty Hungry Shutong would kneel down to this king for a heartless person!"

"Your Highness, the Qi Kingdom is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and cannot withstand such a big turmoil!"

I shook my hands and left: "This is a question that should be considered today."

"My father doesn't really want to help you, he just regards you as a ladder for him to climb up!" Liu Yuan said hoarsely.

"It doesn't matter!" It's always hard to find sincerity, and I didn't dare to expect Liu Xianghui to help me sincerely.

When I arrived at Liu Xiang's residence, the tea Liu Xiang made was already a little cold.

"Your Highness is visiting late at night, and I'm really rude for not being able to greet you far away." Xiang Liu only stared at me.

"Liu Xiang is in his prime, and his demeanor is modest, why would he be so old?" I sat on the seat next to him.

A servant brought a pot of Huadiao, and Liu Xiang introduced it: "The Huadiao wine in Wuxiangju tasted very frivolous that day. Today I specially found Ten Years Huadiao to taste it with Your Highness."

I smiled and said: "Liu Xiang has a heart." After speaking, I went to take the wine cup on the table.

Liu Xiang held my hand diligently: "Your Highness must have been froze when he came here, so let me take care of such trivial matters." Filling up a wine glass in front of him with the other hand, he said : "Your Highness is not in good health, it is better not to touch these things, let me drink for His Highness."

I smiled: "This king has gone through countless hardships, so is it possible that he is still afraid of drinking a glass of wine?"

He lowered his head and bit the rim of the cup with his teeth, and tilted his head slightly so that the wine flowed into his mouth. Before he could swallow it, Liu Xiang came up to him, and the cup fell to the ground and shattered.

After breathing for a while, Liu Xiang's fingertips slid back and forth across his cheeks, and finally settled on the cinnabar mole on his forehead: "If I know His Highness is like this today, I don't know how I will feel."

I said: "What he wants to think is his business, what this king does is my business. Doesn't Liu Xiang want to do that?"

Liu Xiang got up and stood in front of me, looking down at me sitting on the chair: "Your Highness is really different from others."

I smiled and gently hugged his waist, looking up at him: "Don't you like Liu Xiang?"
