Xie Fan only glanced at the direction Meng Shijiu left, "Hongyu, you said that the king has been looking for similar girls since the daughter disappeared?"

"Why is he the king?" Wan Hongyu said with a gossipy face, "It's obvious that General Shu is more concerned."

How can we go about collecting girls who look similar to the princess without the permission of the king?

It's just that since the king still mourns for his beloved daughter, he would do such a ridiculous thing to the whole country, which is a bit unbelievable.

Xie Fan asked again, "Have you seen what happened to those girls?"

"I probably gave him some money to send him out of the palace. The leader of the Dan Kingdom is kind-hearted and a wise king praised by others. If you see that he is willing to let the caravan enter the palace to have a banquet, you will know that he is not that kind of unreasonable person.

the monarch."

Wan Hongyu spoke so highly of the leader of the Dan Kingdom, but Xianhua was very disdainful.

"If he was serious about serving the country and the people, he would not have indulged in the ban on drugs at the beginning. For a country to develop well, it does not need to be forced by banning drugs..."

"How do you know about banned drugs?" Wan Hongyu was surprised.

Xie Fan slightly gestured to Xianhua, who then fell silent and put a lot of vegetables into Wan Hongyu's bowl, "Eat quickly. When my father finds your mother, you won't be able to eat what I gave you."

Here’s the food.”

Wan Hongyu couldn't help but feel sad. When she lowered her head and looked up again, she found that Xie Fan, who was by her side just now, had disappeared.

She said for no reason, "You've been tricking me all this way just to get me to take you into the palace, right?"

"You're overthinking it." Xianhua's heart skipped a beat and she secretly wondered why this person was so smart.

Wan Hongyu poured a glass of wine and clinked the glasses with Xianhua, "I regard you as friends and am willing to help you achieve success, but you cannot do bad things. Otherwise, I will not let you go first."

Good things and bad things are difficult to define in the values ​​of Xie Fan and Meng Shijiu.

Just at this time, Meng Shijiu was being taken by the king to a deeper secret room in the palace. Shu Chengyan also followed, but the king did not let him enter this time.

The chamberlain beside the king stopped at the door, "General Shu will stay here. The king and the child will go in and pay homage to the Qingding. Just handle it as before. You don't have to worry too much."

Meng Jiujiu heard Shu Chengyan's voice getting quieter behind him, but he felt freer in his heart.

"Since the king values ​​General Shu so much, why don't you let him go with you? There is no other defense in the secret room. Aren't you afraid that I will do something bad to you?"

The leader's steps stopped in front, and he turned around. The smile on his face looked a bit strange and inconsistent under the dim light.

"Regarding the matter of Qingding, General Shu should not be involved. He is an upright man and must distinguish right from wrong. If I hadn't just tested your lack of cultivation, I would never have let you get close."

Meng Jiu was silent. The deeper the secret passage went, the brighter and brighter the light source became. The feeling of darkness and occlusion was gone. After taking a closer look, he realized that the surroundings were decorated with crystal stones.

This type of stone can refract light, and as long as a torch is placed nearby, it can illuminate the entire room. It is an extremely clever display.

This kind of arrangement is relatively common in secret rooms used for retreats in the world of cultivation.

This was the first time she saw someone using it outside.

"This was left by the princess back then. She has learned a lot about these camps for many years. Where the Qingding is used, heat sources should be properly avoided. Moreover, she is afraid of heat, so she borrowed the methods left by her previous cultivation disciples to build this secret room.

.”

Talking about the princess, the king's expression softened a lot, and the disobedience on his face weakened a lot.

Meng Jiujiu took the opportunity to ask, "Since the princess just disappeared, why did the king think that her soul had disappeared?"

The king did not answer Meng Shijiu's question.

They had reached the end of the secret room. Meng Jiu saw a huge ice coffin in front of her. She was slightly surprised, "This is...?"

"The princess is here."

The king quietly pushed away the ice coffin, "Three years ago, after the Qingding was damaged, she became immortal. She fell asleep here with the Qingding and could not be woken up."

Meng Shijiu held his breath and walked over, and saw a woman lying flat in the ice coffin, holding a dilapidated green tripod.

They do look somewhat alike, but not enough to admit their mistake.

The dilapidated appearance of the green cauldron was similar to the one when she first met 'Ghost King'.

But even though the appearance of such a treasure was no longer the same as before, it still had an inexplicable attraction. She couldn't help but reach out to the Qingding.

"May I take a look at it?"

The king did not object. Meng Jiujiu's fingertips touched it in an instant, and a strange wave came from the inside of the Qingding and spread to Meng Jiujiu's body.

Her heart felt numb and numb, as if she had experienced an electric shock.

But she clearly has no cultivation now, so how can she sense the fluctuations of this treasure?

But then, the fluctuation became more and more intense, and the pain in her heart was unbearable, as if all the life force was flowing from her fingertips to Qingding's body.

It’s strange, Qingding is recognizing its master!

But now she has no cultivation to protect her mind, let alone repair the damage on it. If she forcibly acknowledges her master, she will only lose both sides.

Meng Jiujiu tried hard to steady his mind and wanted to take his hand back, but he heard the king said in surprise, "Qingding has a reaction, you are indeed the one who can wake up the princess."

But if this continues, Meng Jiujiu feels that his life will be involved!

She didn't care what the king's opinion was. She resisted fiercely and wanted to interrupt the ceremony of recognizing the king, but Qingding clung to her as if he had finally caught an unlucky guy.

The resistance of one person and one cauldron caused the whole ground to shake slightly.

Outside, Shu Chengyan Xu noticed the unusual movement underneath. He couldn't help but move forward, but he stopped the chamberlain at the door.

Shu Chengyan had no choice but to ask, "Is there anything strange about Qingding recently?"

Before he went out this time, the Qingding moved many times, which made the king very worried. However, after he came back, he asked to see the king several times but was rejected. Today, it seems that the king's condition is better than ever.

This made Shu Chengyan feel a little strange.

The waiter Lin usually spoke no more than ten sentences to Shu Chengyan, but today when he saw him taking the initiative to talk to Shu Chengyan, he became very angry.

"How can we servants know what Qingding is like? General Shu thinks too highly of us."

In the past, Shu Chengyan would have drawn his sword and struck the servant, but for Meng Jiujiu, he endured it.

"Master Lin and I are both close to the king, but we only care about the king. I would like to ask Mr. Lin to explain in detail where he is ranked. If the child angers the king, I will be well prepared.

"

The waiter in the forest saw Shu Chengyan surrendering for the first time and said in surprise, "General Shu is very interested in this woman. Could it be that..."

Before he could finish speaking, his eyes suddenly dimmed and he fell backwards.
