When Xuanyuan Junfan heard Lu Zhiyao's name coming out of Liao Wuhen's mouth, he turned to look at him in surprise. Who is he? Was Lu Zhiyao taken away by him?
After Xuanyuan Haotian listened to Liao Wuhen's words, he didn't have any other reaction. He was silent for a moment, then nodded and replied: "Then I'll thank you, Master."
Liao Wuhen left, and Xuanyuan Junfan finally looked back after the door was closed.
"Your Majesty, he... is?"
"I will introduce you to him again when I have the opportunity. Lu Zhiyao is at his place now and is very safe."
Xuanyuan Haotian has been thinking about it for the past few days. The last time Liao Wuhen said that he asked Lu Zhiyao to join the escort team was true or false. This old man has always had a very good vision of people. How could Lu Zhiyao be included in his group?
Where are the eyes?
After Qi Mingyue saw Liao Wuhen, she was so surprised that she even forgot to drink the tea that was put to her mouth.
"I have forgotten the last time I saw you." After confirming that the person standing in front of her was indeed Liao Wuhen, Qi Mingyue called the others out.
"My servant came to see the Queen Mother today because of the Xia family's affairs in the Xia Lai Kingdom." Liao Wuhen said straight to the point the reason for his visit, "I heard that the Queen Mother asked the emperor to investigate?"
"Yes, I can't let it go. I still can't believe that she is really dead. Could it be that you have finally forgotten about your daughter, so you want to ask the Ai family if they have found anything?"
"The Queen Mother is joking." Liao Wuhen said with a sarcastic smile: "That traitor has nothing to do with me. I came here today to tell the Queen Mother that there is no need to look for that person named Xia Han anymore, because Xia Yao is with me now.
On hand. If the Queen Mother has anything to ask, just ask her."
"What?!" Qi Mingyue stood up from the chair, looked at Liao Wuhen in disbelief and asked, "Xia Yao? Youran's daughter?"
"Yes. I have thought about it and concluded that the Liao family's affairs should be resolved by the Liao family in the end, so the Queen Mother does not need to intervene in this matter."
Qi Mingyue looked at Liao Wuhen intently, wondering what the real meaning of his words was. After Liao Wuhen left, Qi Mingyue quickly found Xuanyuan Haotian and asked: "Your Majesty, can Liao Wuhen help you recently?"
Have you done anything to the Xia Lai Kingdom?"
"Mother, when did you become so concerned about national affairs?"
"Be serious! I'm not joking with you!" Qi Mingyue looked serious.
"Master said that he is willing to help me attack Xia Lai Kingdom, but we have to wait for a few months."
"Then is there a girl beside him?" Qi Mingyue asked.
"Lu Zhiyao?" Xuanyuan Haotian was very surprised, how did Qi Mingyue know about this matter. "Did Master also tell you about this matter?"
"Lu Zhiyao? Isn't it Xia Yao?" Qi Mingyue didn't react for a while.
"Xia Yao? Jun Fan said that Xia Yao is dead. The one in Master's hands now is Lu Zhiyao, the daughter of Lu Yuanzheng, the prime minister of Xia Lai Kingdom, and the queen of Xia Lai Kingdom."
Qi Mingyue fell silent. She didn't know why Liao Wuhen said those words to her or why he lied. She just had a vague feeling that maybe Liao Wuhen wanted to take revenge...
Lu Zhiyao lives in a mountain isolated from the outside world, and his life is quiet and fulfilling. He also carries heavy objects weighing dozens of kilograms, which is a bit heavier than what he brought before entering the palace. Looking at
Lu Zhiyao felt that her belly was getting bigger day by day. In her memory, it seemed that she had never seen a pregnant person's belly so close. Lu Zhiyao sometimes even doubted that her belly was growing bigger and bigger day by day.
After it has grown so big, it really won’t be burst?
In addition to reading in the attic every day, she has recently become obsessed with another thing, which is to accompany Shen Xing up the mountain.
Lu Zhiyao didn't know until a long time after eating the wolf meat that Liao Wuhen fed the wolf meat poison on weekdays. And the wolf meat she ate was naturally poisonous. Until today, when she thought of this She was still a little scared because she felt that Liao Wuhen was completely experimenting on her and the child in her belly. If she and the child were really poisoned to death, he would have nothing to lose! Fortunately, she was alive. Liao Wuhen always fed her some weird things, which made her feel that her current physique was different from others.
Lu Zhiyao had a big belly, with Shen Xing in front of him and dozens of wolves following him. They were going to the back mountain because Liao Wuhen did not allow them to go anywhere else. All winter, all the firewood they burned was Shen Xing got it back by himself, and besides being chased by wolves and chopping firewood, Shen Xing also has one fixed thing to do every day, which is to practice archery.
When they reached the mountain, the wolves dispersed and ran away happily. Lu Zhiyao sat on the tree, wrapped in heavy clothes, lowering his head and watching Shen Xing practicing seriously.
Liao Wuhen had tampered with more than a dozen trees nearby, using hidden weapons to penetrate the tree trunks. There were several small holes left on each tree that could allow arrows to pass through. What Shen Xing wanted to practice was to let the arrows pass through. Those small holes passed smoothly.
This was an order given by Liao Wuhen, and Shen Xing did not dare to disobey it. Shen Xing could see clearly how Liao Wuhen beat Lu Zhiyao. He went up the mountain to practice hard every day, and gradually, sometimes he actually could do it. Lu Zhiyao was accompanying him, and would throw darts around when he was bored. Her training was more obvious than Shen Xing's. Now she almost knew where to hit, and could easily let the hidden weapon pass through the trunk of the tree. .
"Zhiyao, did you really go to the palace with Master a few days ago?" Shen Xing was practicing while chatting with Lu Zhiyao.
"Well, you seem to have asked me a few times. Why, do you want to see it too?" Lu Zhiyao asked, shaking his legs and admiring the beautiful scenery.
"I do, of course I do! It would be great if I could enter the palace once and see the emperor with my own eyes." Shen Xing sighed seriously.
"Go ahead!" Lu Zhiyao curled his lips disdainfully and said, "Do you only have such ideals? Do you feel complete if you can see the emperor?"
"Zhiyao, it's not easy to meet the emperor. Haven't you ever thought about living in the palace and becoming the imperial concubine?" Shen Xingzhen asked Lu Zhiyao innocently, "I heard my father say before that in this town, There are many places where women are studying martial arts, and they all want to participate in the concubine selection competition and enter the palace."
"If you say you are worthless, you are worthless." Lu Zhiyao was still disdainful, "There is nothing good in the palace. If you go there, you will know how uncomfortable it is. It is even worse than staying here. Shen Xing, if we If you have a chance to go out, how about you open a restaurant? The food you cook recently is getting better and better, and you can definitely make a lot of money."
Wanting to meet the emperor is a useless idea, but opening a restaurant is a promising idea?
Shen Xing didn't understand Lu Zhiyao's thinking, but he also knew that he couldn't convince her, so he wanted to change the topic.
"Zhiyao, the food in the palace is also delicious, right?"
"It's not delicious at all." Lu Zhiyao answered her firmly, then took out the hidden weapon, aimed at a tree and prepared to throw it. "But it may be because of the emperor..."
As soon as Lu Zhiyao threw the dart, before she finished speaking, she saw Xuanyuan Haotian coming out of nowhere and standing behind the tree, looking at her with cold eyes, motionless.
Lu Zhiyao's hand softened, and the dart passed through the tree trunk, narrowly missed Xuanyuan Haotian's ear, and landed on another tree. Lu Zhiyao glanced at him a few times, and after realizing that this was not his illusion
, her body swayed, and she almost fell out of the tree. Fortunately, she hugged the trunk quickly with quick hands and eyes, but because her big belly was caught in the middle, her movements looked quite funny.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty? When did you come?" Lu Zhiyao hugged the tree trunk tightly and looked sideways at Xuanyuan Haotian and asked.
"Since you said that this child has no future." Xuanyuan Haotian calmly answered Lu Zhiyao's question, "Can I understand that if he wants to go to Xia Lai Kingdom and meet the emperor of Xia Lai Kingdom, it will be very difficult for him to do so.
Are you promising?"
"The emperor really loves to joke, how is that possible?" Lu Zhiyao twitched the corners of his mouth with a smile, saying bad things and being caught on the spot. This was the first time she had ever encountered this. But why didn't she feel anything at all?
Are you aware that Xuanyuan Haotian is here?
Xuanyuan Haotian looked at Lu Zhiyao coldly, feeling more and more that this woman was not telling the truth.
He often comes here, but Liao Wuhen doesn't know it.
Compared with the noisy outside the palace and the suffocating inside the palace, Xuanyuan Haotian prefers this place, a place where he can calm down and think.
There was no one in this mountain before, so he could come whenever he wanted, and he had never bumped into Liao Wuhen. But since Lu Zhiyao appeared, everything seemed to have been broken. Even this made him
He felt that the only place where he could relax was occupied.
Xuanyuan Haotian already disliked Lu Zhiyao, but now he felt more and more that this woman was simply irritating.
"Lin Yinan really has a good eye for taking a liking to you." Xuanyuan Haotian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, raised his chin slightly, and said mockingly as he looked at Lu Zhiyao's funny movements while sitting in the tree.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty." Lu Zhiyao came down from the tree and said, "His vision is indeed good."
Shen Xing had been kneeling on the ground for a long time and did not dare to raise his head. Lu Zhiyao glanced at the small body, walked up to Xuanyuan Haotian, and asked: "The emperor is here to see the master? He is down below, I will take you
past?"
"No, I just came here to take a breath, but now it seems that the air here doesn't seem to be very good. I'd better go to other places."
Xuanyuan Haotian's words were full of thorns. Lu Zhiyao's good mood disappeared due to him. Staring at Xuanyuan Haotian's retreating back, she gritted her teeth and asked Shen Xing, "Boy, how dare you
Would you like to shoot an arrow at his butt?"
"Zhiyuan?!" Shen Xing suddenly looked up at Lu Zhiyao. Xuanyuan Haotian in the distance also stopped for a moment because of Lu Zhiyao's words, but he did not stop, but quickened his pace and left here.
"You can practice by yourself, I'm going back." Lu Zhiyao took a deep look at the direction Xuanyuan Haotian disappeared, turned around and strode back to the attic, picked up a book and lay down on the rocking chair to read.
