Chapter six hundred and eighteen: Rue's way(1/2)

When the first ray of sunlight shone through the clouds to illuminate the entire palace, the monkey stood up lazily on the eaves and stretched.

At this moment, he saw Yunxiang's maid standing in the attic a hundred feet away and staring at him.

He was stunned for a moment.

After a brief gaze, the maid hurriedly walked down the attic.

"What's wrong?" Tianpeng asked.

"It's nothing, I'll come when I go, don't make a sound." As he said that, the monkey sat cross-legged and sat down. Then, he left a phantom, and his true body quietly floated towards the direction where the maid was.

The secret whistle guarding around did not notice any abnormalities on the eaves.

...

When he opened the door, the Green-clothed Prime Minister took the red plate with various pastries from the maid outside the door, turned around and walked step by step to the round table and placed it.

"Your Majesty, the pastries are ready and can be delivered at any time."

"I get it..." Yunxiang sat upright on the couch, holding the handkerchief hidden in her sleeve, twisting it again and again.

The red lips were pursed tightly.

There is no way out, so I can only give it a try.

In essence, Yunxiang did not think it was a big mistake to let the monkeys enter the palace, because they would not stay, nor would they pose a threat to the Kingdom of Women. At best, they could only be considered passers-by. As an old subordinate of Huaguo Mountain, she was just doing her best to be a landlord. The reason why she had to get rid of monkeys was just because of Nuwa's taboo.

But Nuwa is her benefactor, and why isn’t the monkey also a benefactor?

Regardless of whether the poison is effective for cultivators of the Heavenly Way, poisoning monkeys is absolutely not feasible for Yunxiang.

Her cognition determines that she cannot do such a thing.

If you have to choose, Yunxiang would rather be punished for it. But, I am afraid... Even if Yunxiang is willing to bear this guilt, it will be useless. Because Nuwa Niangniang said: "There will be someone to clean up your mess for you..."

After so many years, Yunxiang has a deep understanding of the meaning of this sentence. As one of the powerful people in ancient times, Nuwa said that she could do it.

Even if she really made up her mind to disobey the meaning of Nuwa, it would probably just cause another dispute. In the end, it would be a head-on battle between Nuwa and Monkey. This is something that Yunxiang doesn't want to see anyway.

For the sake of the present, perhaps the only way to take risks is left.

...

On the other side of the palace, in the corner of the uninhabited man, the monkey stood quietly with his hands on his hands, looking down at the maid kneeling in front of him.

"You said, your Majesty asked you to tell me?"

"Yes." The maid kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty has told her that she will personally send the poisoned pastry to the Great Sage. At that time, the Great Sage only needs to pretend to eat it. Then she is furious."

The monkey looked at the maid meaningfully: "Pretend to eat?"

"Yes." The maid nodded and said, "Your Majesty said that with the cultivation of the Great Sage, you can definitely hide it from everyone and pretend that you have eaten the pastry. The Great Sage was once a cultivation of the Heavenly Way, and even if the poison is ineffective against the Great Sage, it should be reasonable. At that time, the Great Sage only needs to be furious and claim that it is poisonous in the pastry. In this way, no one will know that the Great Sage has not swallowed the pastry. This matter is of great importance. Please cooperate with the Great Sage. Great Sage, the great kindness, will be grateful to the whole country of the Women's Kingdom."

Looking at the maid, the monkey's eyebrows were frowning.

What's going on? I'm telling you to poison me, and I'm teaching myself how to deal with it? Do you drive people in disguise? Why don't you feel like you?

Seeing this, the maid quickly took out a jade slip from her sleeve and presented it with her hands, saying, "I have no false words. This is the jade slip that I contacted with Your Majesty. If the Great Sage does not believe it, you can confirm it directly with Your Majesty. However... Your Majesty is staring at you now, I am afraid that the Great Sage will have to wait a little longer."

"Someone is still staring?" After taking the jade slip, the monkey took it in his hand and looked at the sunshine carefully: "Have your Majesty still been held hostage? Who wants to poison me?"

"Your Majesty said this. This is the family affairs of the Kingdom of Women, and she cannot express it. In addition, Your Majesty asks the Great Sage not to hurt the sisters in the Kingdom of Women."

After staring at the Jade Shop for a while, the monkey snorted helplessly: "Okay, I promise her. I turned my face and I'll take the people away."

"I thanked the great sage for Your Majesty." The maid leaned over and saluted again, saying, "I came here secretly on Your Majesty's order. If I leave for too long, I'm afraid I will be noticed. At that time..."

"You go back first."

The maid stood up and saluted carefully again. Then she took two steps back and turned around and left in a hurry.

Holding the jade slip, the monkey's brows were locked tightly.

"The family affairs of the daughter country... a mutiny? No, she should ask me for help in the mutiny." After thinking for a long time, the monkey could only shake his head helplessly: "I don't understand."

In the breeze, the figure slowly faded away, leaving only a phantom, quietly returning along the way he came.

...

When the monkey returned to his original place and opened his eyes to the phantom left by himself, Xuanzang and others in the room had already gotten up.

The roller shutter is pumping water to wash the well in front of the door.

When he jumped down from the eaves and stepped into the hall, the monkey happened to see Xuanzang sitting upright on the round table in the room looking at a red book with relish, with a rare smile on the corner of his mouth.

The two maids had entered the room at some point and were replacing the sandalwood in the incense burner. After a whole night of burning, the fragrance that had gradually faded spread again.

"What book is this?"

"The book found by the roller blind general from the drawer there... should be a book unique to the Kingdom of Women."

"What are you talking about?"

After closing the book in his hand, Xuanzang sighed softly: "The principles of some women's actions are very unique, and they are really unheard of and unheard of. It gave me some inspiration."

"Oh?" The monkey smiled and picked up the fruit on the table and ate it, and said, "Then are you enlightened?"

After saying this, Xuanzang's smile immediately stopped slightly and slowly shook his head.

This should be considered as expected. If you can pass the book by reading it, will it be Xuanzang's turn to come?

But then again, what is the original sacrificial matter?

The monkey glanced at Xuanzang quietly. He saw Xuanzang staring at the books lying on the table, all of whom were already enchanted, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Forget it. Just leave it alone.

The Queen Yunxiang is also an old acquaintance and is not bad to her group of people. She is a bit unfair to use her daughter's country as a test subject. Besides, after hearing what the maid said just now, Yunxiang is also in a state of anxiety, so don't make trouble. She will pretend to notice that the pastry is poisonous and have a fight with them.

Anyway, Xuanzang was forced to do it himself, so let’s just let it go as far as the sacrifice is concerned.

The monkey thought.

...

On the long palace road, Yunxiang walked slowly in a dress with expressionless face. Behind her was the female prime minister, and there were six maids, two of whom were holding red wooden boxes, full of exquisite pastries.

"Last night, His Majesty left the table and did not return, and he came to apologize early this morning. This should be reasonable. According to the truth, the monster monkey would not be suspicious. After all, they did not have the alcohol and food we sent last night at the banquet."

"The elixir given by the Empress. I have ordered people to transform water and mix it into the pastry."

"Speaking of this, the elixir of the Queen is really powerful, colorless and tasteless, and there is no fluctuation of spiritual power. Even if the person who knows that the poison in the pastry cannot notice anything unusual. No matter how high the cultivation level of the demon monkey is, it cannot be discovered before the medicine power occurs."

"I have already given orders to let the troops prepare secretly. As long as the demon monkey is poisoned, all the troops will gather together immediately..."

"Of course, it's best to make all of them poisoned. But this should be a bit difficult. I don't know how long the poison will take. How long will the demon monkey notice something strange after eating it. Just in case, I think it's time to let the demon monkey eat the pastry as much as possible. After all, he is the main combat power of the other party. If the others are not poisoned, maybe we can fight. But if he is not poisoned... I'm afraid that it will not only fail, but also cause a murder."

Along the way, the Prime Minister kept reminding Yunxiang in his ear, and Yunxiang never said a word.

In a blink of an eye, the group had already arrived at the attic where Monkey and others were staying.

"Her Majesty the Queen is here!"

With a long skirt crossing the threshold, Yunxiang silently saluted to the monkey's blessing body. The monkey also bowed his hand to return the gift at will.

The others behind the monkey, the people behind Yunxiang, also tacitly followed the etiquette and performed the etiquette.

All this is done in silence.

With every move, monkey and Yunxiang's eyes crossed. In this short moment, Yunxiang's eyes moved slightly to the left. Standing behind her left was the green prime minister.

The monkey immediately knew the maid's "who stared at His Majesty".

It takes a minute to take her down. However, after all, it is in someone else's place and he has made a decision, so he is not good at interfering in his affairs.

After holding hands, the monkey looked at Yunxiang with a smile, preparing to perform a scene that had already been agreed upon.

Since the monkey had already greeted everyone, Xuanzang, Tianpeng and others also watched coldly.

"I am really sorry for yesterday's banquet. I have to leave the banquet with important matters, so I have neglected you. Today, I will apologize."

The monkey waved his hand and said, "It's no big deal. Who hasn't made any mistakes?"

"Thank you, Master Dasheng, for understanding." Yun Xiang was slightly blessed, and then took the box containing pastries delivered by the maid, put it on the table, and opened both food boxes with his own hands. The movement was so light that there was no sound.

"Great Sage, this is a pastry made by me personally. I have a little intention. Please don't refuse." After that, Yunxiang said to Xuanzang and others: "Everyone can try it too.

Xuanzang and others looked at the monkey intentionally or unintentionally.

At this moment, the whole hall was extremely quiet, as if everything was frozen.

The Green-clothed Prime Minister still maintained the smile he was when he entered the door, but his brows frowned slightly.

It is undeniable that at this moment, her heart was filled with uneasiness. From the moment she entered the door, she felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong.

Has Her Majesty the Queen disclosed the news to the other party?

The Prime Minister was extremely anxious, but in the current situation, she could only pretend that everything was normal.

The monkey scratched his cheek and said leisurely: "I don't like to eat pastries very much."

"The Great Sage doesn't like to eat pastries, I like it. Since it's your Majesty's wish, I won't refuse." As he said that, Tianpeng pulled out his sleeves and reached out.

At this moment, the green-clothed Prime Minister frowned even deeper, and his hands were tightly clamped.
