The spring breeze is on the south bank of the Green River, winter goes to spring, and Kangdu is bathed in smoke and rain again.
The Zhenhai Wangfu was full of joy, but Hu Xiaotian, the king of Zhenhai, was going to return to Kangdu in the next two days, and the palace was actively preparing for the arrival of the master.
Princess Long Xiyue was not in the palace at the moment, she went to the palace early in the morning, and the princess of Yongyang, Qiqi, and the two of them went boating in the Yao Pond and enjoyed the pleasing spring colors on both sides of the Yao Pond.
The flowers are bright, the grass is green, the hazy smoke and rain moisten the color, and also make the outline of everything hazy and poetic.
Qiqi and Long Xiyue stood side by side at the bow of the boat, without letting people use umbrellas, quietly enjoying the numb feeling of the delicate rain slapping on the skin.
Long Xiyue sighed: "After the restoration of Yaochi, the scenery here is even better than in the past. ” Qiqi said: "I asked people to find out the original drawings designed by Zhuge Yunchun, the former soldier saint, as well as the manuscript he discarded, and rebuilt it after synthesis, although it is not as subtle as the soldier saint back then, but the appearance looks much more pleasing to the eye." ” The soldier saint Zhuge Yunchun originally built the Ethereal Mountain and Yao Pond, the biggest purpose was to cover up the internal dragon spirit victory, as for the appearance, Zhuge Yunchun is not good at gardening, so most of the landscape design is designed by other craftsmen, and the so-called original manuscript of Qiqi is also limited to the appearance, as for the part of the internal dragon spirit victory Zhuge Yunchun will certainly not be rashly stored in the royal family.
More than 100 years have passed since the beginning of the establishment of the Yao Pond in the Ethereal Mountain, the change of the times determines that the aesthetics have also changed greatly, Qiqi let the craftsmen rebuild on the original basis, and also carried out a lot of reconstruction, among which the biggest change is to demolish the Lingxiao Palace on the Ethereal Mountain, and retain the Cloud Temple.
Only the remains of her mother Ling Jiazi were left in the cloud temple, and after the demolition of Lingxiao Palace, the Ethereal Mountain was no longer inhabited, and it had completely become a place for her to commemorate her deceased mother.
Long Xiyue looked up at the Ethereal Mountain, between the two green dragons of the Ethereal Mountain, the silver waterfall flowed straight down, because of the falling rain, the water flow of the waterfall increased a lot, but the most wonderful thing is that such a large waterfall, from a high place into the Yao Pond did not make too much noise, thanks to the ingenious design of the year, while retaining the grand landscape of the waterfall while eliminating the sound of the drop as much as possible.
Looking at the same scenery in front of them, but thinking differently in each other's hearts.
Long Xiyue said: "The prince will come back in the past two days."
Qiqi pretended to be careless: "Oh" There was a wave in his heart, although Hu Xiaotian had not come back yet, but the news that he was going to use the Yulan Kingdom as a dowry to propose to him had already flown all over the sky.
He took a breath of moist air and said, "My aunt is about to see him, I must be very excited."
Long Xiyue smiled: "But he didn't come back for me this time.
Looking at Qiqi's ethereal eyes, he said softly: "He came back this time specifically to propose to you." ” Qiqi didn't show any happiness, but sighed softly and said: "He has a purpose for everything he does, and not everyone in this world is willing to be deceived by him."
Long Xiyue said: "I'm a very lazy person, I'm too lazy to think about other people's motives, too lazy to think about whether he will lie to me, maybe it's because of this, he doesn't even bother to lie to me" She laughed herself when she said this.
Qiqi really admires Long Xiyue's open-mindedness, with her understanding of Long Xiyue, she is neither lazy nor stupid, not only that, but she is also much smarter than most people, otherwise how could she control the largest gang in the world, the beggar gang, otherwise how could she clean up the unruly Hu Xiaotian to the death, otherwise why would she take the risk of coming to Kangdu at the most critical time, just to mediate the relationship between herself and Hu Xiaotian and increase their trust in each other Qiqi sometimes can't help but think, if he is Hu Xiaotian, which one will he choose between himself and Long Xiyue, if he is Hu Xiaotian, he will also choose Long Xiyue, most men like obedient women, not to mention that this woman is not only gentle and kind, but also has the courage and responsibility to sacrifice for herself at a critical moment.
The more women are like this, the easier it is to arouse men's care, and the easier it is to make men have a sense of responsibility, maybe Long Xiyue saw through this earlier than herself.
Qiqi said: "Don't you really have jealousy?"
Long Xiyue nodded and said: "Liking someone is not possession but giving, in fact, I am very content to be able to have everything today." ” Qiqi said: "But I am not satisfied" After saying that, she added: "I am still very jealous that I have no tolerance for others" Long Xiyue laughed.
Qiqi frowned: "You can still laugh, aren't you worried that I will be bad for you" Long Xiyue shook her head.
"Don't you worry that one day because you are old, he will like the new and hate the old, and he will change his mind about you" Long Xiyue still shook her head.
Qiqi sighed: "It's a miracle that a person like you can survive until now. ” Long Xiyue said: "I promised Xiaotian that I wouldn't make him sad, so I have to protect myself well, so no one wants to hurt me, and in the same way, I regard Xiaotian as more important than my own life, so anyone who dares to hurt him, I will not agree to be the first one." ” Qiqi turned her head in some surprise, and saw the bone-chilling chill that burst out for the first time in Long Xiyue's gentle watery eyes, she had never seen such a look in Long Xiyue's eyes.
Qiqi even felt a little scared, her eyes fell on the gentle surface of the waves of Yao Chi, the water was soft, but the water could carry the boat and also overturn the boat, she suddenly thought through the truth.
Long Xiyue said: "The reason why I persuaded you to marry Xiaotian is actually very simple, because you can help him, because you like him, he likes you, and the most important thing is that you can't fight him, it was like this in the past, it is still like this, and it will always be like this in the future, so you better not do stupid things" When she spoke, she gently stroked Qiqi's hair that was moistened by the drizzle, and Qiqi suddenly felt some chills on the back of her neck.
She always thought that Long Xiyue lived in the clouds, and she didn't know that the world was cold and sinister, but she didn't expect that she had already seen through everything.
Qiqi said: "In the past, others said that girls were outward, but now I really understand the meaning of this sentence, it turns out that for a man, you can throw away your ancestors, and you can treat the country as dust."
Long Xiyue said: "The throne is just a symbol, it doesn't matter who sits on it, it doesn't matter who can do the peace of the country and the people, there have been wars throughout the ages, and there is that war that is not the people paying for the careerists" Speaking of this, she seemed to be a little tired, yawned lazily and said: "Are you asking me to come to the lake or discuss family and country affairs?"
Qiqi said: "If you didn't mention him, how could I say so much" Long Xiyue smiled gently: "There is one thing I am curious about, if he proposes to you, will you agree or not" Qiqi said: "You're not him, so I don't need to answer" Hu Xiaotian's return to Kangdu this time was much more powerful than in the past, and there were thousands of people in his entourage, including Huo Shengnan, who led the army to conquer the Yulan Country, and several capable generals under Wei Chi Chong in the past, they went to Kangdu to accept the imperial court canonization and heavy reward, Zhuge Guanqi also walked with Hu Xiaotian, and the purpose of his trip to Kangdu this time was to see the Dragon Spirit Shengjing and the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda.
In addition to these people, Qin Yutong also walked in a low-key manner, this time she was not to accompany Hu Xiaotian, but her lower abdomen began to bulge, according to the date of conception, it was already ten months pregnant, but the month did not match, that is, the normal pregnancy of five months, Hu Xiaotian was also a little worried about this, and finally fired a shot, for fear that it would become a squib halfway, Qin Yutong was very calm, and told him that because of her physique, the pregnancy period might be relatively long, Hu Xiaotian was worried that it might be like Ling Jiazi, Seven years of pregnancy took birth before giving birth to Qiqi, fortunately, Qin Yutong's belly has begun to appear in scale, according to Qin Yutong's calculation, her birth date may be at the end of the year, so it will take two years.
Qin Yutong didn't want to return to Kangdu, but recently learned that his father was seriously ill, and because he was worried about his father's condition, he decided to return with Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian naturally had to get close to Huo Shengnan along the way, but General Huo's stomach still didn't move, this matter made Hu Xiaotian deeply puzzled, and he came to Qin Yutong to ask for the mystery of the Celestial Vision, according to Qin Yutong's statement, the Celestial Atlas is only effective for descendants like her who have the blood of the Mandate of Heaven, and even she can't understand why Hu Xiaotian can make herself pregnant, but she can't let Huo Shengnan, Long Xiyue and others get pregnant.
Although Hu Xiaotian regrets in his heart, there is no solution for the time being, it seems that there is no perfect thing in this world, and the most likely to conceive him at present, in addition to Qin Yutong, there are only Ji Feihua and Qiqi.
There are still ten miles away from the Kangdu City Gate, and I saw the people who welcomed them along the way, even Hu Xiaotian himself did not expect that his reputation had risen a lot during this time, but the reason was that Long Xiyue was secretly arranged, coupled with the beggar gang's help spreading Hu Xiaotian's benevolence everywhere, now not only the people of Dakang, but almost all the people who are suffering in the world have regarded Hu Xiaotian as their savior.
This capture of the Yulan Kingdom has pushed Hu Xiaotian's prestige to a stage high, and Dakang has not heard such high-spirited news for a long time.
