I am immortal
Chapter 221 Sealed!
Zhou Yihan's expression was a little reserved, but this was not just the kind he performed in the past, but he actually held his breath subconsciously. The girl who was helped out was clearly only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a facial features He was originally gentle, but his deep eyes and temperament were as quiet and silent as a deep valley, giving him an unpredictable coldness.
He is dressed plainly in white, wearing socks and blue shoes.
The jade pendant hangs from her waist, but it is not as complicated as that of an ordinary noble lady. There is no golden steps or golden strands. There is only a black wooden hairpin to tie the hair, which adds to the simplicity. When the eyes sweep over, there is something saying The heavy weight made Zhou Yihan, who had been accustomed to being around wolves, tigers and leopards since childhood, nervous.
The girl looked through the letter Zhou Yihan brought, and saw that the text written on it briefly described a magical power called [The Method of Appearing Round Light], and also talked about the importance of the Seventh Prince, and the young Taoist's The handwriting is simple and the words are concise and concise. The Seventh Prince must not die. Once he dies, the world will be in chaos. Monsters will invade the borders. The military will be low in fighting, and there will be a great defeat.
As for how to save Li Zhai, there are only eight simple words.
[Taking it in name]
【Forced by force】
He mentioned again that if the emperor released Li Zhai, he would have a message for Li Zhai.
Li Qiongyu put the letter away without any change on her face. She just smiled and said, "Thank you for taking the trip, girl."
"No trouble, no trouble."
"It just happened to happen. I have to thank the Taoist priest for not being angry."
Zhou Yihan took the initiative to mention the young Taoist he met.
Li Qiongyu raised his eyes slightly and said, "I don't know where I met him."
Zhou Yihan couldn't see any emotion or anger on Li Qiongyu's face. That face was like a statue carved from fine white jade, and his eyes were like black gems. He looked at her calmly, so Zhou Yihan didn't dare to Without any modifications, I could only tell the story of how I met the young Taoist and how I was appointed by him.
Li Qiongyu sat there quietly, like a dignified mountain god.
The white palms were shrouded in the wide sleeves of the white clothes, but the index finger lightly tapped the table.
"I see……"
Li Qiongyu's voice paused slightly, and then said:
"So, Miss Zhou is here to seek a way out for the Runan Zhou family, right?"
Zhou Yihan paused slightly. She had not said these things before, or in other words, such things were hidden deep in her heart. It was impossible to say them unless it was a life-or-death situation. She had not mentioned it just now, but the woman in front of her said it out loud, and she couldn't help but feel sad. Se paused slightly.
Li Qiongyu said: "Miss Zhou doesn't have to make a choice. You can stay in Prince Qin's Mansion first."
"In a short period of time, nothing will happen to you, and nothing will happen to the Zhou family."
But at this time, the woman in green hurriedly came here again, looking at Li Qiongyu, her face faintly lost her previous calmness. Zhou Yihan saw that her face was slightly pale, and the light in her eyes was shaking violently, but it was more intense than before. When he told her that he was the young Taoist priest, his reaction was even stronger.
One is happy.
But now, it's pure shock.
Zhou Yihan quickly narrowed her eyes, with a harmless and ignorant look on her face, like someone who fell into a strange environment and was helpless and ignorant about everything, making people less defensive. Li Qiongyu glanced at her and called the woman in green to enter. Coming forward, the maid in blue whispered a few words into Li Qiongyu's ear, her palms trembling slightly, and Li Qiongyu's eyes were calm.
"Miss Zhou, are you deciding whether to marry the seventh prince?"
"You might as well go and sit behind the screen."
Zhou Yihan was stunned.
Seeing Li Qiongyu's eyes were dull, but ripples appeared: "The Seventh Prince is right outside the door."
Zhou Yihan: "!!!"
The Seventh Prince Li Zhai wore a hood, covering his face that was as thin as a sick tiger. At dusk, he was taken into the Qin Prince's Mansion by the attendants of the Qin Prince's Mansion carrying red lanterns. After he was released, Staggeringly getting up and coming out, I saw that the originally sealed mansion was empty, with only some items placed in conspicuous places.
But after Li Zhai left here, he did not leave as quickly as the emperor expected.
Instead, he went straight to Prince Qin's Mansion.
Under the setting sun, the red lantern revealed a blood-like color. Li Zhai walked to the lobby. When the door opened, he saw a girl sitting at the top with white clothes as old as before and eyes as bright as stars. They looked at each other. There was a trace of ripples in Li Qiongyu's eyes, and he said: "Seventh brother."
"Qiongyu, thank you for recognizing me."
"When I looked at myself in the mirror, I was scared to death. Hahaha, what the hell does this look like?"
Li Zhai laughed and took off the hood used by military strategists. The originally cheerful face had already become emaciated due to the illness in his heart, revealing traces of his cheekbones, but his eyes were particularly cold. God, he sat on a stool on one side and swept a cup of tea on the table. Without saying anything more, he said concisely:
"The emperor released me."
"He said he had his reasons and what he had to do in his position."
"I believe half of what he said, because the best lies are always half-truths and half-falsehoods."
"I was stunned. I didn't even know which ones were real and which ones were fake. It's a pity that my father is serious and not an actor!"
Li Zhai laughed several times, then sighed: "But, some things are true..."
Li Qiongyu didn't say anything. She knew that Li Zhai came here just to explain some things. Li Zhai was silent for a while while holding the tea, and said: "I don't know what happened back then, what the internal affairs were like, but I You know, you are here to avenge your father and clear his grievances, and the ambitions of the Five Surnames and Seven Sects, and the skills of the fourth brother, these are all real."
"It is also true that the emperor's reputation has been reduced."
"In other words, there is a possibility of chaos."
"Hey, the envoys from the surrounding small countries saw with their own eyes that I was captured and thrown into prison. They have always been short-sighted and there may be hidden dangers at the border. No matter how wrong the emperor's words are, there is one sentence: Really, once the country is in chaos, the borders will be lost, and when the two are intertwined, there will be chaos and the people will suffer."
"I can't leave this alone."
"Is it okay? No."
"Even if I guess in my mind that he came to me as a tactic to spread suspicion, he might just want the situation to be simpler and more under his control, so he asked me to leave the capital, and I have to obey him. His arrangement is unavoidable, it is an outright conspiracy, even if I know his purpose, there is nothing I can do about it."
Li Zhai took a big gulp of the tea and said:
"Brother Qi Qi is not a smart person, but I know that military strategists do not compete for kings and become emperors."
"But to protect the country and the people."
"Being an emperor? I have no such interest. If I were to sit on that chair, it would be more interesting for me to sit on a mound in the grassland and watch the border people pick up the dried cow dung and pile it back to light the fire."
"Besides, I don't have the brains for it."
The leader of the military strategist closed his eyes and seemed to have seen the scenery of the border pass. He murmured: "I will be stationed at the border pass. As long as I am alive, I will not let the demon clan and other countries invade the border. But... don't cause chaos, Don't let countless of my people and soldiers lose their fathers just because you lost their father, Qiongyu, this is my only request."
Li Zhai opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and leaned forward. His eyes looked at the girl above him calmly, but there was also an indescribable energy.
Once Li Qiongyu makes other choices.
He would kill her in seven steps.
At this moment, the leader of the military strategists seemed to have begun to understand other schools besides the grand military situation.
It is no longer just that young and passionate person, but the kingly art of war that can overwhelm others with force.
Forcibly stabilizing the situation and keeping the country from chaos belongs to the fourth prince, and he will guard the border for life.
Li Qiongyu looked at him and said quietly: "I swear."
"It will contain Ah Feng."
Li Zhai looked at her steadily, and the military leader's [Mirror Heart Technique] reflected Li Qiongyu's heart.
So he scratched his head, as if he was honest and simple when he was still in Zhongzhou before anything happened, laughed a few times, and said: "Afeng listens to you the most, I believe you, then, Brother Qi, I will leave Come on, go and proclaim yourself the king. I’m afraid I won’t be able to add the title of [King] to my name after my death.”
"It's good to be just a general until the day you die."
Li Zhai waved his hand and stood up.
Li Qiongyu said: "Seventh brother."
Li Zhai smiled and said: "Huh? What's wrong, sister."
Li Qiongyu said: "A Taoist priest I know very well asked me to say a word to you."
"Um?"
“Actions speak louder than words, but listening only speaks louder than words.”
Li Zhai's eyes changed slightly.
Li Qiongyu said: "If Seventh Brother wants to know what happened back then, he might as well go to Jinzhou when going to the border."
Li Zhai recalled what the emperor said in his mind, his eyes narrowed slightly, he nodded, and said concisely: "I will." He put on his hood again and walked out slowly. Li Qiongyu said in a soothing tone: "Miss Zhou, Come out."
Zhou Yihan walked out from behind the screen, her face slightly pale.
Li Qiongyu said: "The emperor let him go, so he won't do anything to your Zhou family."
"But, what are you going to choose?"
Zhou Yihan gritted her teeth. It seemed that it was not difficult to choose between being the fourth prince's wife and concubine, or accompanying a man recognized as a hero to the border and never coming back. However, it seemed to be extremely difficult to choose. In the end, she Said: "I am willing to accompany the Seventh Prince..."
Li Qiongyu raised his eyes and said calmly: "It's a good decision."
"Then, Miss Zhou, you might as well give me the Zhou family's seal."
She smiled slightly.
When he smiled, he was not as cold as usual and said:
"No matter who wins in the end, the Zhou family will be safe and sound."
If the fourth prince wins, Zhou Yihan is the wife of the seventh prince. Due to the close relationship between brothers, her Zhou family will not be completely liquidated. If King Qin wins, then the Zhou family will be a great contributor to assisting King Qin in the fight, and the Zhou family will be safe. , and she herself will be in a safe position no matter what.
Zhou Yihan looked at the cool and elegant beauty in front of her and said word by word:
"The King of Qin can also have the most valuable first aid when his power is at its weakest, right?"
Li Qiongyu asked: "So, where is your decision?"
Zhou Yihan took out a seal and put it gently on the table, then exhaled, turned and left the Prince of Qin's Mansion. Then she rode a fast horse and chased the seventh prince away. Li Qiongyu held the Zhou family's seal in his hand. Holding it in his hand, he looked at the sunset outside, with thin shoulders and gentle eyes. He took out the letter and gently brushed the words left by the young Taoist with his palm.
The girl from the Zhou family, who was gentle on the outside but decisive on the inside, was caught by the military leader who was proficient in anti-tracking.
His face turned pale and he said, "Stop, stop, stop!"
"No, don't kill me."
Li Zhai, who was as cold as a sick tiger: "If I hadn't noticed your energy in Qiongyu just now, you would have died by my sword. Who are you?"
"I, I am your fiancée!"
Li Zhai's expression froze: "Huh?!!"
"I, I'm from the Zhou family. I'm here to accompany you to the border."
"What?!!"
Li Zhai looked this fragile girl up and down, sneered, and put away his weapon, guessing that Qiong Yu was worried about him.
So he said lazily: "If you are not afraid of death, just follow."
Historians are always fond of the legend of a brave and mighty king who rose from desperation. In an era when the throne was shaken, this hero, who was the most amazing and talented among military strategists of all ages, chose to retreat bravely and gave up the chance to sit on the highest position. Opportunity, he rushed to the border, and the storytellers among the three religions and nine streams were in love with the story of the mighty king and his princess.
The once willful and romantic King Wu fell in love with the descendants of the Zhou family who were overthrown by his ancestors eight thousand years ago.
The legendary deeds were compiled into countless stories and circulated in teahouses and restaurants in later generations.
These stories are always denounced by historians as romantic and wild history.
But even the most severe historian must admit this.
For the mighty king who stalked the battlefield, it was as if he had never taken a step back. The girl who appeared when he was in the most embarrassment and at the lowest point in his life was an extremely important existence. At that time, martial arts was praised. Crippled, severely wounded in spirit, and as full of hostility as a sick tiger, the mighty king once again walked on the right path.
No matter what its original purpose was, by the end of the story, it was like a wisp of wind passing by on the battlefield, a colorful ribbon tied to the mighty king's jersey, and the most important thing that cannot be ignored.
The brave and mighty king has a wife with no bloodline, so it is difficult for him to have any heirs.
The king will never marry again.
——"Famous Generals in the World·Human Race·Brave and Mighty King"
On the second day, the Human Emperor held a large court meeting. This was the first large-scale court meeting after the prince was deposed.
After the prince was deposed, the entire world was undergoing subtle changes. Even the ministers in the court and the families with five surnames and seven sects were subconsciously choosing new supporters, and in the end they mainly gathered into two factions. One is the fourth prince Li Hui, and the other is the King of Qin Li Weifeng.
One of them recognized the name and power of the fourth prince, while the other recognized the general situation and name of King Qin, as well as the unbearable guilt in his heart for what happened back then.
Even today, there is a vague distinction between civil and military officials.
"Go to court, and all the officials will come to see you!"
Accompanied by a very high voice, hundreds of officials, King Qin, and the fourth prince entered.
The human emperor sat on a high throne, his face pale. The emperor nodded slightly and motioned to the eunuch leader on one side to read out the imperial edict. Then after silence, a voice slowly said: "The prince has no virtue and is against the family and the country. He is banished." Personality, now there is the fourth prince, Zihui, who is young but talented, talented in literature and martial arts, and now, he is established as the prince!"
As a result, the fourth prince Li Hui's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, while many civil and military officials were beaming with joy.
In the first imperial edict.
The Prime Minister narrowed his eyes slightly and remained silent.
He ordered the seventh prince to leave, stabilized the hearts of the people and the military at the border, suppressed the prince, supported the fourth prince as prince, suppressed the King of Qin, and liquidated the families who supported the King of Qin. In the end, the princes still defended the country at the border, and the fourth prince was the prince, so there was no reason to rebel. The current emperor's method is to win over differences, downplay the situation, cultivate heirs, and stabilize the country.
But at this time, the great eunuch took out the second imperial edict!
Said: "Today, it is announced that King Li Weifeng of Qin has been promoted from the second-rank prince to the first-rank prince."
"Give me swords and shoes to go to the palace."
"You can enter the court without paying homage!"
The civil and military officials behind Li Weifeng were also happy among the wealthy family, but the old prime minister opened his eyes suddenly, in disbelief, his scalp was numb, he felt the tit-for-tat confrontation between the prince and the King of Qin, and the division of the civil and military officials, deep in his heart Chill, this, this is not just an imperial method to divide, suppress, and win over, this is for...
The old prime minister raised his head, and all the civil and military officials behind King Qin and the prince were excited in their hearts.
It's not that they can't see the danger, but their attention is now attracted by the extremely bright future.
The wages of avarice is death.
The emperor is sitting high up, on the cold throne, holding the throne with both hands, his eyes lowered, the twelve beads spread out, covering his eyes and face, making it difficult to see clearly, as if he is overlooking everything, and everything is under control. .
