Mo Qingcheng

Chapter 11

Hua Shijun continued: "The flower demon is at least 250 years old, so he can be regarded as a weak crown in the outside world; strictly speaking, Xiaoyi has not yet reached adulthood, and the matter of love between men and women is not yet an urgent matter. But it is indeed difficult to delay this matter. Even if the father There are many children and grandchildren under the king's knees, and there is no need for Xiaoyi to spread out or take over the throne. It is not an option to let him wander around alone. Besides," he looked into Lu Xiaonian's eyes, and said his real worry carefully, "Wu Gua Is the true meaning hidden behind it really as it appears on the surface, and it’s just as simple as hindering Xiaoyi from getting married?"

Lu Xiaonian gradually understood why his master chose the Flower Demon Country as the last stop of his graduation trial, and why he threw the seemingly nondescript hot potato of "fulfilling the second prince's marriage" to him to deal with.

The light smoke from the censer had dissipated, and the serving maid gently added suet-colored sesame oil into it.

Lu Xiaonian met Hua Shijun's eyes, and in the latter's eyes, he saw a faint worry that didn't need to be concealed.Lu Xiaonian said: "So His Highness thinks a step further than others, worrying that after this witch hexagram affects Hua Moyi's personal fortune, it may further shake the national destiny and even the foundation of the Flower Demon Kingdom?"

"I have never discussed this matter with my father or other princes, but it is related to the country, so I have to be careful."

"His Majesty chose to tell his subordinates frankly..."

Hua Shijun said: "Because before you entered the palace, I have sent someone to inquire about your family background and family background." The corners of the serious lips curled up slightly, and a smile that was not a smile appeared on Ying Ting's face, "I have to say that my father has high hopes for the disciples sent by Master Jiulian Zen, which is indeed wise; but my father has neglected one thing, that is, he has not realized your true value."

Lu Xiaonian looked at Hua Shijun without showing any signs of expression.

"The eminent monk who cultivated Buddhism with a righteous heart and the ancient dragon, two innate people with very different positions, who should be innate enemies in theory, but they were fatefully entangled for two lifetimes by accident. Born as a Buddha bone, full of demonic aura, you can freely travel between human and demon realms. This is your most perfect talent."

The methodical voice sounded in the room and then slowly sank, and no one responded for a long time.

Hua Shijun stared at Lu Xiaonian, whose expression remained unchanged, with piercing eyes, trying to figure out his state of mind at the moment.

The young man in the scarlet robe in front of him is very young, as young as Shochiku who has just faded out of his greenness and is struggling to grow up; he has a handsome appearance, and his facial features can be called charming and romantic, just like the amazingly talented person in his rumored life, Has an unforgettable beauty.It's no wonder that Xiaoyi would call him little boy. Such a young and beautiful young master should have been kept in a golden cage, half-opening his eyes full of steam, living a life of exquisite luxury day after day; Chanting about the wind and moon, playing with the first snow, being so respectful and humble that the children of the royal family and dignitaries feel like a deer, and playing and teasing so much that the nightly gauze tents of brothel courtesans are full of fragrance.

That kind of flashy and corrupt life is worthy of this person's romantic and freehand style.

But the way he looked at him impartially, there was something different from his handsome and playful face.

Looking deeper, in the beautiful eyes that seem to be full of affection, there is an absolute calmness that is upright, peaceful and steady.That is the introverted and quiet Buddhist temperament, unassuming, and the gentleman's aura of the whole person is as dignified as jade from the outside and inside.

Hua Shijun thought to himself, beautiful and elegant.

Breaking the silence that lasted for a while, Hua Shijun said, "Master Lu doesn't seem surprised."

Lu Xiaonian raised his eyebrows, his expression was very vivid, as if someone had broken a layer of scruples for him, allowing him to finally be straightforward.

Hua Shijun saw the light of a smile flashing in Huacai's eyes, and then Lu Xiaonian said: "There is indeed a little surprise, but what surprised me even more is that His Highness has extraordinary insight. Research, I will cut straight to the point and directly discuss with His Royal Highness how to deal with Second Highness who is under the witch spell."

"You mean that you have already thought about how to deal with this matter before you came to Yundu Palace?" Hua Shijun finally showed a rare surprise on his face, and his thoughts changed instantly.

"To be precise, I have already conceived a contingency strategy when I heard about it for the first time at the Green Bamboo Inn." Before he could ask any more questions, Lu Xiaonian went straight down and said, "Instead of waiting to die, being told by divinations that don't know the source, direction, and outcome If you are stuck to death for the rest of your life, why not take a big gamble and simply cross the line of thunder."

The smile in his eyes was deeper, and his black eyes were shining brightly. When Hua Moyi rushed in without thinking, he just heard Lu Xiaonian's last words: "I wish to sacrifice all my cultivation and gamble my family's life. Demon bottom line."

**********

Hua Moyi rubbed the tip of her nose, looked at the two who fell silent for a moment, and asked with interest: "You haven't finished talking yet? Did I come at the wrong time?"

Lu Xiaonian quickly turned to him and smiled.Hua Moyi stared at the gentle smile on the little boy's face with trepidation, only felt that there was a murderous intent hidden in it, and danger was everywhere.

The second prince took a step towards the eldest brother vigilantly, stood up straight, and then stared back with provocative eyes: "Why are you looking at me lustfully?"

Hua Shijun was also silent, and turned his gaze away at this time, briefly glanced over his second brother, and then stayed on Lu Xiaonian: "Are you absolutely sure?"

"No." The answer was crisp and clear, "But there is still a need to try." Staring at the defensive Hua Moyi, Lu Xiaonian was still talking to the eldest prince, "If you are the Flower Demon King, I will still be in the same place. Use this plan to report back. If His Royal Highness cannot believe Lu Xiaonian, it will be as if today's talk never existed."

Hua Moyi blurted out: "Wait, did I miss something?" Then he took a step closer to Hua Shijun, and said nervously, "Brother, what agreement did you and Xiaobailian reach without telling me?"

His elder brother finally took all his eyes away from Lu Xiaonian, staring at him solemnly, his eyes full of contemplation and contemplation, which made the second prince feel ominous: "Brother..."

Hua Shijun suddenly showed a relaxed expression on his face, and smiled faintly.

"Okay, I will trust you this time, and entrust Xiaoyi with full power to you."

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Wait a minute and slow and——slow!" Hua Moyi jumped three feet high on the spot, even though she didn't know the cause and effect, Hua Shijun's ambiguous tone like marrying a daughter, and Xiaobai's face immediately revealed "Please rest assured" That weird smile was enough to make a strong alarm sound in his heart.

He pulled Hua Shijun's sleeve sadly, and asked sadly: "What is entrusted to you? Brother, are you going to drive me out of the palace because I can't marry a woman? Even if you want to sell me or give me away, you can't give me away." Find a good family who is pleasing to the eye and won’t fight anytime soon──I don’t want to leave my hometown and wander in a bumpy state──I don’t want to live under the fence of someone else──I don’t want to look back at my homeland with two lines of tears──”

Hua Shijun and Lu Xiaonian blacked out at the same time, Hua Shijun tried to pull his sleeve out of his imaginary younger brother's hand, but Hua Moyi clung to his sleeve like a vine wrapped around a tree, crying, "Brother , I still want to see your and Brother Ran's children, and I want to send my fifth sister to marry, I..."

Lu Xiaonian coughed lightly, and broke Hua Moyi at the right time to continue to show her acting skills: "The Second Highness misunderstood, what I and the First Highness mean is that from now on, the Second Highness can freely choose the woman he likes to marry."

Hua Moyi immediately let go of Hua Shijun's hand, the expression on his face was changing.He stared at Lu Xiaonian as if he saw a ghost, and the latter looked at him with a smile.

"Little boy, are you talking in your sleep? Let me choose a woman freely?"

"In front of His Royal Highness, Lu Xiaonian dare not lie."

Seeing that the eldest brother's face is stable, and he didn't deny the little boy's words, it seems that Lu Xiaonian is not pretentious or fabricated.Hua Moyi immediately felt that once the haze that had shrouded her head for many years dissipated, she finally saw the moonlight when the clouds opened.The dislike towards Lu Xiaonian dissipated almost instantly, and the favorability soared.

The Second Highness patted his thigh, and said happily: "Okay! I'm going to find the woman I like right now, little boy, you can accompany me for a while!"

He didn't think deeply about what it means to choose women freely, and how to break the curse when it was said.

Lu Xiaonian squinted her eyes, thinking so fast?The smile on the mouth did not change color: "Okay."

The two were about to turn around when Hua Shijun said, "Young master Lu, I have something to bother you before you leave."

Lu Xiaonian turned her head and looked at him.

"What is the relationship between Mr. Lu and my concubine Bi Ran?"

This question came so abruptly that Lu Xiaonian froze for a moment, showing a puzzled expression.

"Bi Ran?" After repeating the name, Lu Xiaonian said, "Forgive me for not knowing, why did His Highness ask this question?"

Judging from his appearance, he was really unfamiliar with the name Bi Ran, Hua Shijun pondered, but did not reply.

Hua Moyi looked at Hua Shijun, after spending a while with that person in the back hall of the Yundu Palace, he already knew that there was a thorn in his heart, if he didn't pull it out, he might have trouble sleeping and eating all day long.

"The picture of 'Hundred Flowers Blooming in Spring' is my elder brother's concubine, Bi Ran, who sent someone to make it for you." Hua Moyi said, "Bi Ran, like you, does not belong to the territory of the Flower Demon Kingdom. Seriously speaking , He was seriously injured ten years ago, accidentally hit and ran into the Bulao Forest, then passed out at the feet of the elder brother who was out on patrol, and was picked up by the elder brother."

Lu Xiaonian was stunned, and lightly gasped: "So that's it, it's the eldest princess..."

"Bi Ran has a noble and unruly personality. Although my elder brother admires him very much, he reluctantly married him out of gratitude, but he has never really opened up his heart for ten years." Hua Moyi explained, while watching the changes in his elder brother's expression. , found that Hua Shijun's complexion was very bad, but not to the point of being as black as iron.

Hua Moyi decided that once the eldest brother's face turned to freezing point, he would run away behind the little boy regardless of 21 or [-].

Lu Xiaonian cautiously said: "I understand. Please rest assured, Your Highness. Ten years ago, Lu Xiaonian was just an ignorant young man, and he had followed Master Nine Lotus Chan to travel around and practiced. He had absolutely no acquaintance with the Crown Princess. And why you only sent your servants to sew and embroider pictures as a gift to me, and I would venture to speculate that it is probably because of the mutual sympathy between people outside the world?"

Hua Moyi answered immediately: "Bi Ran just answered me in the same way in the apse."

Hua Shijun's face relaxed a little now, thinking that what Lu Xiaonian said was indeed flawless.Lu Xiaonian is young and weak, while Bi Ran is in his thirties, their backgrounds and scope of activities are different from each other, there shouldn't be any memorable past between them due to emotion and reason.

There was a faint layer of embarrassment on the face of the eldest prince, and he lost his composure because of his concern.

"It's Bengong's carelessness that made Mr. Lu laugh."
