Since that day in the Imperial Garden, the king personally appointed her as the new high priest of Loulan Kingdom. The next day, Heimuzana entered the Immortal Palace with the help of Helianqi.
This is the palace of the successive high priests of the Loulan Kingdom. Although it is not as gorgeous as those main halls, this Immortal Palace has a unique artistic conception and style.
"High Priest, the hot water is ready." Behind her, a palace maid responsible for serving her said softly.
"Well, you go down. You don't need to wait here anymore. I will call you if anything happens." Zana did not allow a second person to be present when she took off her veil. If anyone saw her ferocious face,
, he will definitely die in a strange way.
People who had no idea whether they were dead or alive tried to spy on her, but they never had good results.
After the palace maid left, Zana walked behind the screen, took off her black clothes, including the black veil, and entered the tub. The hot water enveloped her body, and the warm current swept through her body, making her
Feel more comfortable.
Slowly closing her eyes, she leaned against the edge of the tub. The comfortable environment made her think of the majestic figure of a man. It was the King...
Zana smiled softly and indulged in her own fantasy alone. Warmth entered her body and mind, making her unable to help but caress her body, as if the king was caressing her.
"King..." she called him lightly, and she was deeply intoxicated in her world.
The steam filled the entire bedroom, and Zana enjoyed it all. However, when her palms touched the bumpy and ferocious cheeks on her face, she immediately regained her consciousness and looked down at the reflection of her cheeks on the water.
There was a look of resentment in his eyes, as if whoever was unlucky enough to come in at this moment would die!
She originally thought that no man in this world could touch her heart, but this man appeared, he really did appear.
Zana sat quietly in the bathtub, washing her body mechanically. Her thoughts were no longer here. She seemed to be planning something? Or, in other words, she should be planning how to win her own love.
There is only one concubine in the Loulan Kingdom's harem. I heard that she is very beautiful and fragrant. After the new year, the king will marry her and make her his queen.
But it doesn't matter. As for any emperor, who doesn't have three palaces and six courtyards? What does the queen mean? As long as Zana wants to sit, that seat can be hers at any time!
A sinister smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she already had a plan...
When a man likes a woman, he just likes a woman’s beautiful skin and natural beauty. She, Kuromuzana, was also a woman as beautiful as a fairy before. If she hadn’t made an exchange with the gods, she wouldn’t have to wear this ugly black hair.
veil.
Since she is the most beautiful woman in the country, comparable to the most beautiful woman in Loulan, then she really wants to meet the future queen!
For what she wants, she will not hesitate even if it violates her family's ancestral precepts!

"Master, the garment warehouse has sent some new clothes, please take a look." Lan Qier led the maid behind him to walk to her.
Cen Xue stood up carefully and looked at the clothes. They were all prepared for the start of the new year. She nodded and said with a smile: "Very good, they are all very good. I can trust the craftsmanship of the clothing store."
After hearing the master's words, Lan Qier immediately took the clothes from the hands of the palace maid and said to her: "The queen is very satisfied, you can go back and resume your life."
"My slave, please leave." The palace maid bowed slightly and left.
Cen Xue sat in the palace all day and was almost bored. She walked to the window and opened it. Today there was a little snow outside. No wonder it was getting colder and colder recently and she couldn't leave.
Half a step to warm the stove.
"Qi'er, how many days are left until the new year starts?" Looking at the falling snow outside the window, he casually asked Lan Qi'er behind him.
Lan Qier thought for a while, counted the days, and answered affirmatively: "Master, there are still eight days."
"Oh, it's so fast. After the new year, spring should be here soon..." As if he was thinking about something, he put a pair of hands on his lower abdomen and stroked it gently.
Ever since she became pregnant, she often caressed her lower abdomen unconsciously, wanting to feel the child in her belly. Unfortunately, he was still too young, but she was already full of imagination about the future, imagining his arrival, imagining
What does her baby look like?
Thinking of this, she would often chuckle inexplicably. If others didn't know it, would they think she was being stupid?
"Master, the cold wind is too strong when you stand in front of the window. Please put on a cloak to avoid catching a cold." Lan Qier put a cloak on her behind her and served her with extreme caution.
"Yeah." Cen Xue didn't object, because it was indeed quite cold.
This place can't compare with modern civilized society, with heating and so on. Everything is so primitive and natural...
"Master, I heard a news today that the Third Prince will be back soon." Lan Qier stood behind her and whispered in her ear.
The matter between the master and the third prince had caused such a big fuss before. In the king's heart, the third prince was a thorn in the side that could not be removed. This was Xingqing Palace, the king's palace. Naturally, Lan Qi'er did not dare to say it openly.
come out.
Cen Xue was startled when she heard Lan Qier's words. She turned to look at her and asked, "Who did you hear this news from?"
"I heard it from Eunuch Zhao's young apprentice, but this is also the rule in the palace. The end of the year is coming soon. In previous years, at the end of the year, all the royal relatives in the palace would gather together for a meal, no matter where they are.
No matter where you go, you must rush back. This is the rule Loulan has set since the founding of the country.
That’s right. So the third prince is far away in Guancheng on the edge of Hongshan Mountain, and he has to rush back to gather before the end of the year. Otherwise, look, the second prince, who has been wandering away for the past few days, will also rush back!" Lan Qier
The time I spent in this palace was not short, so I naturally knew this rule.
"So that's the case, but it's good to know how he is doing in Hongshan City." Cen Xue still feels a little guilty about him.
When the two were chatting about him, Helianjue had already rushed back from Hongshan City to the capital. The rules of his ancestors could not be broken. Even if he would be embarrassed to face them when he went back, rules were still rules, and he had to
return.
But before him, a carriage slowly entered Loulan's capital and headed straight for the palace...
"Mu Yue meets the king!" Elder Mu Yue, who was far away in Wuji Mountain, immediately set off after receiving the king's letter.
"Elder Muyue, please wake up. How are you feeling after traveling all the way?" He Lianzhi always respected her.
"It's okay. I received the letter from the king and I came right away. I was afraid of wasting time." Mu Yue held a cane and said forcefully.
"Hahaha, I have plenty of time. I invite you here this time mainly because I want you to preside over Gu's wedding ceremony. The date is set to be after the beginning of the new year, so if you need anything, just ask Gu." In the imperial study room,
Helianzhi stepped off the dragon chair and came to her, his eyes shining with joy.
Mu Yue saw his eyes shining and the joy that could not be concealed from the corner of his mouth. Compared with him in the past, he was completely different. Could there be some happy event that could make him so happy? If there really was, then it must be the same as that.
The girl has nothing to do with it.
"There is everything in this palace. I will make it public with Duke Zhao, so the king doesn't have to worry. But looking at the king's rosy face, there must be some happy events in the palace, right?" Mu Yue asked boldly.
.
The smile on Helianzhi's face became even brighter, and the corners of his mouth raised a waning moon smile and he said: "As expected of Elder Muyue, he hit the point with just one word. There is indeed a happy event in the palace, and I am alone.
Xueer's wedding, second visit
Well, Xue'er is now two months pregnant. I just want to wait until the fetus in the mother's body has been gestating for three months after the new year and is relatively stable before holding the wedding, so as to avoid Xue'er being too pregnant.
I'm tired and hurt my body."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, double happiness!" Muyue was also happy for her.
But underneath the smile, Muyue was inevitably a little worried. She still remembered what she said to the girl at Wuji Mountain. It was a mixture of good and bad! It seemed that her fate had come true little by little, and now she was about to be rich.
Being a queen and being blessed with Lin'er should be a sign of great blessing, but what about the great misfortune that follows?
"During these days, I have to work hard for Elder Muyue to stay in the palace. I am tired from running around for Gu and Xueer's affairs." Helianzhi did not leave the important matters in the palace to the new high priest Heimuzana.
He invited Elder Muyue who was far away in Wuji Mountain, which shows that he still has a plan for Zana.r
The Kuroki family is famous for their use of witchcraft. His wedding to Xue'er is such a happy event, how can he let her do it? Now that Cen Xue is pregnant, he has no choice but to do it!
"Mu Yue wants to visit the empress. I wonder if the king will allow it?" Mu Yue wants to see her immediately and understand her current situation.
"Come here - send Elder Muyue to Xingqing Palace to visit Concubine Xue, and then send Elder Muyue back to the palace to rest." He Lianzhi had already arranged everything for her and was just waiting for her to come.
Mu Yue left the imperial study and followed a thin little eunuch through the imperial garden to Xingqing Palace! When passing the imperial garden, Mu Yue saw Zana from a distance, standing in a pavilion by the lake, dressed in black.
, although she has never met her in person, in the bottom of Mu Yue's heart, she has vaguely built a protective wall against her.
Zana turned around and looked. Behind the thin little eunuch, there was another young woman supporting an old woman about fifty years old. The old woman looked very strong and looked in her direction.
The two looked at each other, as if they were warning each other from afar.
"Hmph~" Zana turned around disdainfully and quickly left the lakeside.
"Elder, who was that woman just now? She was dressed in black. How strange?" The young woman supporting Mu Yue beside her asked curiously.
She is one of the saints of the Holy Moon Sect, named "Phoenix". This time she came to the palace with Elder Muyue. She has been to the Loulan King's Palace several times, but she has never seen anything like that.
