Time flies, more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Zhuge Qingyun and Li Xingyun have remained in the Qi Kingdom.
Not long ago, the empress also received a secret message from Li Siyuan, which also included the incident of him being instantly killed by a bad handsome man.
Although the Empress is stronger than Li Siyuan, the gap in strength between the two is not too big. Since the bad handsome man can subdue Li Siyuan with one move, he can also subdue the Empress with one move.
Therefore, after knowing the power of the bad handsome man, the empress basically believed Zhuge Qingyun's words, and the two secretly reached a preliminary cooperation.
In order to dispel the doubts of the bad handsome man, the empress also used her identity as Prince Qi to express her submission to Li Xingyun.
At the same time, more young and beautiful maids were sent to serve Li Xingyun, hoping to further corrupt his fighting spirit and completely turn him into a waste without ambition.
Because the empress personally gave the order, the maids in Huanyinfang all respected Li Xingyun, but they only respected his status as a descendant of Li Tang.
Compared to Li Xingyun, Zhuge Qingyun is more popular in Huanyinfang, partly because his appearance is better than Pan An's, and partly because of Abao.
Half a month ago, Zhuge Qingyun deliberately found an opportunity to summon Abao from the pet space, and then brought him into Huanyin Workshop openly.
As a simple, honest and cute giant panda, Abao's specialty is being cute. Not long after he entered Huanyin Workshop, he quickly captured the hearts of many girls with his cuteness skills, even the empress.
Love it very much.
Since Abao only listened to Zhuge Qingyun's words, the maids in Huanyin Square had to say hello to Zhuge Qingyun in advance when they wanted to take him out to play. As time went by, he became very popular.
…
"Li Siyuan just sent an invitation, saying that Li Xingyun's junior sister Lu Linxuan and his adopted son will hold a wedding at Tongwen Hall in half a month, and he wants to invite Li Xingyun to attend the ceremony.
What do you think about this matter?"
In the other courtyard where Zhuge Qingyun lived, the empress, dressed in red attire, fed A Bao with fresh bamboo shoots and stroked his big head with a smile.
When Zhuge Qingyun heard this, he flipped the skewers in front of him unhurriedly and replied without raising his head: "As the saying goes, 'Elder brother is like father'. Uncle Yang is dead. As Lu Linxuan's senior brother, Li Xingyun must
I’m going to attend this wedding.”
When the empress heard Zhuge Qingyun's words, she paused slightly, put down the bamboo shoots in her hand, and frowned slightly: "But Li Siyuan invited Li Xingyun to attend the ceremony in Tongwen Pavilion, but actually he wanted to keep Li Xingyun in Tongwen Pavilion.
, so as to strive for more benefits for the Jin State."
Because Li Siyuan had already been threatened by a bad commander, he didn't dare to play the trick of "coercing the emperor to order the princes" again.
However, if Li Xingyun can be kept in the Jin Kingdom, then once Li Xingyun ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, Li Siyuan can use the power of Conglong to become an important minister of the country in one fell swoop, and it is not impossible to be crowned king.
The empress was unwilling to let Li Xingyun leave, not because she wanted to become a follower of the dragon, but because she wanted to control Li Xingyun in her own hands and use Li Xingyun to deal with Yuan Tiangang.
"Haha, don't worry, this wedding is not that easy to hold. I will give Li Siyuan a generous gift when the time comes." Zhuge Qingyun glanced at the empress and smiled meaningfully.
"It seems that you have already thought of a countermeasure."
When the empress saw Zhuge Qingyun's confident look, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the empress secretly decided in her heart that in half a month, she would go to Tongwen Hall in person as 'King Qi'. Even if something unexpected happened to Zhuge Qingyun, she would also find a way to bring Li Xingyun back to Huanyin.
Square.
Zhuge Qingyun did not intend to tell the empress the detailed plan, but raised the skewers in his hand and said with a smile: "The skewers are ready, do you want to add more spicy?"
"want!"
When the empress heard the words, she subconsciously responded, and then seemed to think of something? She quickly shouted: "Just a little spicy is enough!"
Because Zhuge Qingyun did not deliberately hide his cooking skills, the empress had eaten his food as early as half a month ago, and after that, she would come to have a meal every two or three days.
A few days ago, Zhuge Qingyun specially prepared a 'Spicy Chrysanthemum' hot pot meal for the Empress, and the Empress herself is quite intolerant of spicy food. When she first ate it, she thought it was a delicacy in the world.
But on the second day, the empress deeply felt the spicy feeling that penetrated her intestines. She didn't want to experience it a second time anyway.
"Okay, slightly spicy."
Zhuge Qingyun noticed the empress' cute and frightened expression, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and sprinkled a little chili powder on the skewers in front of him.
"Hmm~~"
While eating the skewers Zhuge Qingyun prepared for her, the empress made a sound of contented enjoyment and said with a smile: "Qingyun, the food you cook is so delicious. If I become emperor in the future, I will definitely let you be my special one."
Royal Chef, I want you to cook for me for the rest of your life."
"As long as you marry me, you can still eat my food for the rest of your life."
When Zhuge Qingyun heard this, he secretly joked in his heart, and then smiled at the empress and said: "Then thank you empress for your kindness."
…
"Good boy~ It's time to eat. After dinner, can we go to the back mountain to fly a kite?"
In the backyard of the Tianshi Mansion in Xuanwu Mountain, a beautiful woman in her thirties who still retains her charm is holding a rice bowl and coaxing the gray-haired old Taoist priest to eat with a smile.
"Okay, okay, fly the kite, fly the kite..."
When the old Taoist priest heard this, he clapped his hands happily at first, then suddenly scratched his head and said, "But I still have to look for my son! Hey? Where is my son? Do you know where my son is?"
"Xuanling, my good Xuanling..."
When the beautiful woman in Taoist robes saw this, the smile on her face suddenly froze. She couldn't help hugging the crazy old Taoist tightly in her arms and began to sob softly.
The white-haired crazy old Taoist in front of me, his name is Zhang Xuanling, he is also a contemporary Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion, his cultivation has reached the great heavenly level, and he is also one of the top masters in the world.
More than ten years ago, Zhu Wen wanted to conquer Zhang Xuanling for his own use, but was rejected by Zhang Xuanling.
So Zhu Wen was so angry that he asked Emperor Ming to lead the Xuanming Sect masters to attack the Tianshi Mansion. While he was fighting hard with the Xuanming Sect masters, Li Siyuan took the opportunity to sneak into the Tianshi Mansion and took away his
Son——Zhang Zifan.
Zhang Xuanling was even more powerful than Li Siyuan, but he had been seriously injured in a previous fight with a master of the Xuanming Sect. In addition, he mistakenly believed that his wife Xu Huan had been killed by Li Siyuan. In the chaos, he was slapped by Li Siyuan.
