There’s a Dragon Girl in the Desolate Sea: 427. The thirty-fifth dragon scales (twelve)

This is the anti-theft badge, so she didn't forget to hold the emperor's hand before she died, asking him to take good care of Xiuwen, and never forget that they were a family.

This is also the reason why the abolished prince tried his best to deliver the last relic of his mother to Eunuch Jiang. It was a long, long time ago, when the queen was just pregnant, the emperor brought it back for her in a private visit, and at the same time, there was also the birth mother of King Cheng, a talented and beautiful Jiangnan beauty.

This string of beads is not precious, so it was preserved when the prince was imprisoned in Xici Alley. When the emperor saw this string of beads, he remembered the first empress, and remembered that he was ashamed to treat her, and he ignored her and cared for the orphan at the end of his life, and locked their only son in the alley of Xici.

Eunuch Jiang also sighed with emotion at the right time. Tonight is the fifteenth, and the Mid-Autumn Festival will soon be here.

This is what the abolished prince told him to say. The emperor's face was really moving when he heard it. The Mid-Autumn Festival is also the birthday of the abolished prince. He still remembers how happy he was when the child was first born. Prince Xiuwen has always been the pride of the emperor. He has been generous, talented and intelligent since he was a child. The emperor exhausted his efforts to teach him, but this father-son relationship changed after the deposed prince became an adult. The young prince was afraid that he would follow the example of his ancestors to force the palace to seize the throne, so he was on guard against the prince in every possible way.

This is also the reason why the emperor ordered people to arrest the abolished prince without even thinking about the witchcraft and dragon robes found in the East Palace. The fear in his heart was taken out, so he forgot that Prince Xiuwen was his son, and completely regarded him as an enemy who wanted to **** his throne.

It has been four years now. I saw the relics of the late queen, and I remembered my debt to the late queen. When she gave birth, she brought back a beautiful woman, and she was entrusted by her deathbed and sent Prince Xiuwen into Xici Lane. . All kinds of emotions came up, so he ordered Eunuch Jiang to go to Xici Alley and bring the abolished prince.

The crown prince can be deposed but he doesn't want to see him again!

He is the emperor and father, as a minister and a son, how dare Xiuwen not come? !

Seeing the emperor's anger, Eunuch Jiang said quickly: "The emperor calms down, His Highness, he is now... the old slave can't help crying when he sees it."

"Xiuwen he... how is he?" the emperor couldn't help asking.

"Alas." Eunuch Jiang sighed. "Your Majesty, His Highness's heart is dead. He is no longer the Prince Xiuwen of the past. His high spirits and scolding Fang Qiu were all turned to ashes four years ago. Today, His Highness is just a waste. Can't write. His Highness said that the emperor no longer has to be afraid of his dissent, because he is already a cripple, he will die in Xici Lane all his life, and will never come out again."

Prince Xiuwen, what kind of character is that?

Everyone in the world knows that he is an outstanding young man, stunning, and is the dream of countless noble ladies. His status is noble and high above. He was originally the bright moon in the sky for people to look up to, but now he has fallen into the world and no longer has that light. The pearl is dusty, the white jade is flawed, and it is hard to collect water.

The emperor was full of anger, like a deflated ball, and there was no sound. That is the son he is most proud of, his first child, and there will be more children in the future, and none of them will make him work hard like Xiuwen.

But this child is useless.

I don't know how long it took, the emperor closed his eyes and sighed softly: "You... make arrangements tomorrow, I will be leaving the palace."

"Your Majesty?"

"I'm getting old." Even the emperor had to admit that he was getting older and his sons had grown up, but he was no longer as young and strong as he used to be. Now that the harem has not had a newborn for several years, he knows his own body better than anyone else, and he is already powerless. "Some people's hearts begin to liven up."

"The Emperor—"

"No need to say anything." The emperor waved his hand. "Since Xiuwen refused to come to see me, I went to see him in person. Back then... I didn't even look into it and didn't even give him a chance to defend myself. Now he's frustrated with me, and it's only natural. It's me. His heart, once this heart is cold, it can no longer be warmed."

Eunuch Jiang looked at the emperor's still tall back. The emperor's temples had already given birth to Chinese hair, but there was no one around him who could talk to his heart. After the empress left, the emperor was even more lonely. When Prince Xiuwen was abolished, he truly became a loner. Now, except for the **** himself, there is no one else who can be trusted by the emperor.

Is this the emperor?

Sitting on the country, but only a shadow.

On the second day, the emperor took off his dragon robe and did not disturb anyone. He only brought two guards out of the palace with Eunuch Jiang and went straight to the Xici Alley.

This place, Xici Alley, has always been forbidding members of the royal family. The emperor has never been there, so I don't know how desolate and dilapidated it was. Outsiders don't know how the people inside live, but the Imperial Guard guards here and won't give anyone a chance to come out. Those who entered, all died inside, not even qualified to move into the imperial mausoleum, buried on the spot, a handful of loess, a white bone, disappeared in this life, no one will remember.

There are not many palace people here. Most of them are thin and pale and indifferent. Even when they meet the emperor, they don't have much fear. The people who live here are all walking dead. Why are they afraid of dying? Living here is harder than dying.

The emperor was guided by Eunuch Jiang to the ruined courtyard where the abolished prince lived. He was so timid that he didn't dare to step in.

Standing at the door for a long time before the emperor stepped forward and entered the courtyard. Into the eyes is a green vegetable field, and a man in coarse cloth clothes that has been washed white and has patches everywhere is pouring vegetables with his back to the person. He drew water himself from the well, and when he reached the vegetable field, he bent over, and didn't care that his hands were full of dirt, quietly doing his own work.

Where there is a trace of extravagance, there is also a trace of popularity.

Hearing the footsteps, the person pouring the vegetables turned back. From his back, it can be seen that this person is very thin, and the sackcloth and linen clothes are only a shelf, but no matter how mentally prepared, when he saw the scrawny face of the abolished prince, the emperor still couldn't stand the blow. Deng took a few steps back, his eyes warmed.

It has been four years, no amount of anger has passed, and the guilt of the abolished prince's "treason" has gradually been washed away in the emperor's heart. In the past four years, every time he wakes up from his dreams, he wonders if he was too arbitrary. Woolen cloth? If you give Xiuwen a chance to explain, have you misunderstood him? What if someone framed him? He always remembered the good of abolishing the prince. Xiuwen was smart since he was a child, and he could read and write faster than ordinary children. He was filial and sensible, and he respected and admired both himself and the queen. The emperor suffered from cervical vertebrae pain, so Xiuwen tried every means to find a remedy. During festivals and the emperor's birthday, Xiuwen's gifts were always the most attentive and precious.

When Xiuwen was deposed, would he resent his father and condemn him without even giving him a chance?

Before coming to Xici Alley, the emperor was most afraid that Xiuwen would resent himself. But now he knows that what is scary is not being resented by the child, but that the child sees him as if he saw every grass and every tree. "Your Majesty."

His son, not his father, call him emperor.

"Revised—"

"I'm just a sinner. Four years ago, the emperor stripped me of my name and title." The abolished prince stood up straight. "Now I am a person without a name, and there is no person named Xiuwen here."

"You're hating your father--"

"This place is simple, the emperor is really a dragon and the emperor, it's better not to set foot there." The waste prince didn't care what the emperor said at all, he continued to pour his own vegetables, and laboriously carried the big bucket to the well. He scolded the guards beside him: "What are you still doing! Do you want to ask the prince to do such rough work!"

The guard was stunned by the "Prince" he said, and hurried to **** the bucket of the crown prince. At this time, the door curtain of the room was lifted, and a slender woman walked out. She saw someone rob the crown prince's bucket, and she immediately Just like a tigress protecting her cubs, she grabbed the broom at the door and rushed over, punching at the group of people, and even the emperor accidentally took several blows, and he bared his teeth in pain. "What are you doing! Let go of my husband! Otherwise, don't blame me for killing you!"

My husband? ? ? ?

Eunuch Jiang whispered to the emperor's ear: "Your Majesty, this old servant forgot to mention that this woman is the wife of His Royal Highness Cheng Wang, who is the wife of His Royal Highness Xiuwen. She is a concubine of the Jing Kingdom's palace."

What?

His Xiuwen married a concubine girl? !

Where did King Cheng come from? !

The women in this world should have been chosen by Xiuwen, but now he is married to such a vulgar woman who is holding a broom? ! The emperor took a closer look and found that although the woman had a graceful figure, her face and body had been rubbed with a lot of ashes by some rough work. He chose Jing Guogong's daughter for Xiuwen, the first beauty known as a talented woman, but now Xiuwen is accompanied by such a woman, what a style, what a style!

His hands were shaking with irritation. After beating them, Linglong quickly threw the broom aside, and greeted the defunct prince: "Is Xianggong okay? Are you injured?"

Although her face is dirty, you can't see her face carefully, but her voice is sweet and she calls him her husband. During this period of time, the cheeks of the waste prince, who has been deliberately thinning out, were quietly flushed. Although he was acting, she called him like that. , it really made him very happy.

At the beginning of the world, the sky and the earth were one, and they were inseparable from the barren sea.

The journey of the sun and the moon, if out of it, the stars and men are brilliant, if out of it. A long time ago, the sun, moon, and stars were all in the barren sea. When the earth was separated on the same day, the return to the ruins appeared in the barren sea, bringing together the seawater from all over the world, and the dragon girl of the return to the ruins also woke up from her deep sleep.

She is extremely affectionate, but also extremely ruthless. Her unrestrained, wild nature obliges her to feed on human love, but love is so precious that she never gets enough to eat. Then one day, a lonely soul with no owner and no fixed place floated on the sea for no reason. The dragon girl swallowed it in a daze, and tasted the opposite of "hunger". Later, she discovered that the soul of "human" could make her own food, so she transformed into the real body of a white dragon and went to the world.

But the more she ate, the more hungry she became. The burning hunger made her unable to control herself, causing her to churned in turbulent waves in the barren sea, suffering endlessly.

She gave up the slaughter and plunder of human souls during such torture, and returned to the Dragon Palace of Returning Ruins quietly. In order to avoid starvation, the dragon girl chose to sleep again.

Then she went to a world in a dream, grew up like an ordinary person, and received the unreserved love of a human being.

When the dragon girl woke up from the dream, she realized that the human soul can only satisfy her hunger for a short time. If she really wants to experience "satisfaction", then only "love" is her food. When she understands this truth, there will be lonely souls coming from above the barren sea. She devours them and goes to the world where they are, and then she can digest the souls and take them for herself. If she can find pure and full love in the world, then she can stay awake for a long time after returning to the barren sea without having to fall asleep again.

The human souls who came to the barren sea were all related to water, and the dragon girl even left a drowned soul as her servant to guard the Guixu Dragon Palace for her when she left the barren sea.

Up to now, she can't remember how many people's love she has eaten.

But this world... um... Dragon Girl is also very distressed. Marquis of Yong'an's love exudes a fishy smell, and it can be expected that it is not very delicious, but if she doesn't eat it, she might even forget who she is in the next world!

Forget it, she's never been a person who prefers to be short and not too much. When it comes to food, the Dragon Girl has always refused to come.

Dragon Girl is the only dragon who lives in nothingness and enjoys eternal existence. She has no relatives and no companions, so she learned the word "Linglong" in the world and used it as her name. She quickly learned the laws of life on earth and worked hard for her rations.

With no one to teach or guide, Linglong lived a lonely and happy life. She doesn't stick to the way of heaven and does whatever she wants, except that she doesn't put any life in her eyes. Fortunately, there is hunger as a prohibition, which allows her to do things a little bit. She no longer devours her soul as she did when she first left the barren sea, and she is unscrupulous.

Now she occasionally secretly eats a few extra souls, and the sky and the earth will turn a blind eye.

Beautiful appearance comes from godsend or heredity, but beauty needs to be pampered. The kind of woman who lives in a rough environment and still maintains soft skin and charming modalities, even Linglong has never seen a few. Her beauty comes from herself, because she is the most beautiful dragon. She can maintain her youth and beauty forever without maintenance or maintenance. How can humans compare with her?

Therefore, when Chu Zhi, who had been left out for more than a month, when she saw her again, Linglong almost couldn't recognize her.

Breakable skin and a carefree attitude are what you get in a life of luxury. Chu Zhi was just a servant who was hated by his wife. Everyone in the Hou Mansion got the meaning of his wife and knew that she was not liked by his wife. Who would look at her in the right eye. It was a trivial matter to exclude and bully her on weekdays. Stealing is the big deal. Without the rouge gouache that Mrs. gave her, the loss of Peiyu Mingluan, plus the fact that she was not allowed to see Lord Hou for dozens of days, she was thinking wildly, and her whole person became haggard and old, and she had the same coquettish attitude as more than a month ago. The prosperous maid is like two different people.

The original owner really took this maid who grew up together as a sister, but always remember to prepare a copy for Chu Zhi for all the fancy clothes and beautiful clothes of the original owner, even the original owner's parents have green eyes on Chu Zhi. Youjia asked Chu Zhi to dowry, but who knew that she lost her daughter's life and soul. I don't know how the couple would react if they knew the truth.

"Ma'am! Madam's servants know it's wrong, please let the servants come back to serve! Madam!" As soon as Chu Zhi came in, she slumped on the ground with a very low posture. She had no other choice now. She was so tight that she wanted to sneak out in the middle of the night to find Hou Ye? There is no way, even her three meals a day are disturbed, either accidentally bumping into her and spilling it, or grabbing the soil and leaves inside, these days are not very comfortable at the beginning of the day.

She is really desperate. Although she will be tortured if she stays with her, at least she still has a chance to see Lord Hou. Who else can save her at this moment except Lord Hou? Right now, I just hope that the lady can still remember a little bit of her past affection, and see that she is soft-hearted and spared her this time in her humble attitude.

"You're wrong." Linglong opened her almond eyes slightly in surprise. "Then tell me, where did you go wrong?"

Chu Zhi lowered her head and didn't dare to lift her head up: "The slave maid's fault is that she shouldn't steal Madam's jade pendant with dirty hands and feet, and she shouldn't serve her well, so she almost burned her with hot tea, and she shouldn't argue that she is innocent— —”

"Very good." Linglong put down the pastry in her hand moved, got up in person, bent down and helped Chu Zhi up, her beautiful eyes were full of tenderness and relief. "You and I grew up together, and I regard you as a sister in my heart. If you don't repent, how can I let you leave my side? It's all right now. If you admit your mistake to me, I won't be angry. Be sisters as usual, share everything, do you think it's good?"

Chu Zhi fell into the beautiful future described by Linglong, and was about to nod her head in agreement, but suddenly found that his wife was no longer smiling. She suddenly broke out in cold sweat, and quickly knelt down again, "The slave does not dare! The slave does not dare! The slave comes from a humble background, but she is only a slave, how can she be a sister with the madam! I also ask for the grace of the madam, let the slave be by my side, and do something. Work, the slave and maid will be satisfied."

Linglong laughed again: "You, you, really, but since you asked me like this, it would be too impersonal if I didn't agree."

She stretched out her hands and said to Chushuang, "How about the impatiens juice you prepared?"

"Madam Hui, all right, the servant will go get it."

Chu Zhi stood up and stood on the side, showing humility, and stooping slightly. Her eyes couldn't help being attracted by the pair of lush-like soft weeds that Linglong stretched out. What kind of hands were those, white and slender, as delicate as the tender bamboo shoots that had just been peeled off, without a single flaw, and with the usual pampering, She didn't even have a thin callus on her hand. The manicure is round and neat, unlike Chu Zhi, because she always has to do work, and when the nails are long, they will be full of ashes.

She used to have slender fingers and dyed Kodan, but now her hands are old and wrinkled, with thick calluses, and even a little deformed because of the heavy work.

Chu Shuang brought impatiens juice and carefully painted Linglong's nails. Just after painting one hand, Chu Xue came in and reported that Hou Ye was back.

Linglong noticed Chu Zhi's undisguised joy, and secretly laughed in her heart, she thought this was her chance? No, it's her hell.

The Marquis of Yong'an has recently been fascinated by the fascinated wife who has transformed himself. After the daily errands are over, he is in a hurry to go home without drinking with his colleagues. Everyone laughs at him, but he doesn't care. How do those single dogs know the feeling of being in the arms of a tender and charming wife? It's too stupid to use the drainage water in this cold weather as a mourning.

Isn't it better than blowing cold wind outside?

As soon as he entered the door, his tall body seemed to bring a cold wind. Linglong didn't lift her head, she didn't do anything virtuous in front of Yongan Hou, the original owner was virtuous enough, but unfortunately Yongan Hou didn't like it, he was taken away by Chu Zhi, not because of Chu Zhi's thin horse temperament .

But a thin horse is a thin horse, and it can't be put on the table. How can it compare with the beauty of the country and the city.

Here in Linglong, men and women are no different, but the Marquis of Yongan became her food alternative, so she was allowed to live on for a while longer. She likes his handsome appearance and strong body, so she will maintain it until she eats him. As for Chuzhi, she didn't eat it. She was like a cat that caught a mouse. Before the mouse died, she teased and played and tortured it to death.

Seeing that Yongan Hou waved Chushuang away, sat down in front of Linglong himself, and took over the small brush in Chushuang's hand dipped in impatiens juice, Linglong sneered: "Marquis is so interesting, why, these women's family Do you like it too?"

"The pleasure of the boudoir is sweet." The Hou Yongan didn't take her sarcasm at all, but felt that such a wife had a different kind of cuteness. He has held a sword in both hands, went to the battlefield, and killed the enemy, but this is the first time he has done such a delicate thing. Linglong narrowed her eyes, "You're ugly, go away and let Chushuang come."
