my demon

Chapter 95

In the past dynasties, many founding emperors would have a "military adviser" who was proficient in astronomy, geography, military calculations, and so wise that they were almost monsters. After assisting the emperor to achieve great success, these heroes would either retire in a low-key manner or retire sadly. .

The ministers of the imperial court thought that the emperor's teacher had such a role before, but now that the emperor's favorite is in full swing, and it is obvious that the emperor's close officials are very cautious about it, and they never talk about the emperor's teacher. However, seeing that the officials of the Ministry of Households selected 30 people at one go, it is said that they lived directly in the tower, divided into three shifts to record the situation of the seeds, and asked them how they were, but all shook their heads, and only said that there was a purpose in the Holy Spirit, and that breeding was a matter. It is about people's livelihood, and the circumstances of it must not be disclosed.

The ministers only thought it was an act of mystery. After all, there are so many people coming and going in and out of the Ministry of Households and the Qin Tianjian every day. Could it be true that they can really keep secrets?These are all officials, not slaves. They have a mixed population, so how can they really keep secrets.

However, after inquiring carefully, no one really could reveal the specific situation in the tower and their own workflow.

This makes people even more surprised and speculative, so are these people really tight-lipped, or can't tell?

All the officials in the court disturbed one after another, but they also made some people anxious.

On this day, King Shen called the son of Prince Shen to the study room, and made a secret confession. The son Xiao Yuheng is 15 years old this year. Now it is time to discuss marriage. Princess Shen heard that the prince called the son to go, and she felt a little nervous. Khan, when Xiao Yuheng came out, he quickly recruited him to ask the prince what he asked him to do.

Xiao Yuheng said: "I didn't say anything, just said that he personally asked the emperor to let me go to the Ministry of Households to learn about breeding, and in the future he will also give me a background, let me listen to the emperor's words, and learn from the emperor's teacher." thing."

This is serious talk, Princess Shen was slightly relieved, it is rare that her prince finally understands some truth, and also knows to find a way for her son, she nodded and smiled: "That's right, then you listen to your father's words, good life Serve the emperor's teacher, be respectful to the emperor, and only focus on what you have learned."

Xiao Yuheng hesitated for a while and said: "Father said that the emperor doesn't like to take His Royal Highness with him to do anything now, but it is not his own, and he has no feelings. I will go to get closer to the emperor. The emperor always knows where the blood is the closest and the closest. .”

Princess Shen smiled wryly, knowing that the lord did not give up on this heart, she just stroked his hair and said, "My good boy, we just want to be an ordinary clan and have some skills that can help us. Where is the way?" So it's easy to go? Is the eldest princess a vegetarian? It's better to study hard and don't think too much."

Xiao Yuheng nodded, and then quietly said to Princess Shen: "Father asked me to remember those seeds well, and bring some out every day if there is a chance."

Princess Shen turned pale with shock: "Don't do that!" Xiao Yuheng was relieved to see his mother and concubine like this. Hubu's breeding matter is now a major event, and it is on the cusp of the storm. Naturally, this fine seed is confidential. He whispered: "I heard before that when breeding, you can get a few seeds every day. I also I don’t think it’s that easy, and if you bring it out, you may not be able to grow it, it’s going to take a long time.”

Princess Shen repeatedly asked him in a low voice: "Just tell your father that there is no chance, and don't take anyone around you with you. If someone steals and plants you, don't worry. Just ask the emperor to make decisions for you. Don't worry about it." .”

Xiao Yuheng became more anxious when he heard this: "Is it okay if I don't go? Just say...just say I'm sick."

Concubine Shen saw how weak her son was, thinking that the prince still wanted to covet the big position, and she didn't weigh herself and her son's weight, so she just said slowly: "It's okay, you just do things seriously, you don't need to say more, Since the emperor agreed with you to go, he will never hide anything. So many officials can do things, and he is naturally happy to have one more royal family member to help. Just don't think too much about it. Usually it will do."

Xiao Yuheng agreed to go down, but Princess Shen recruited her confidant mother-in-law to explain a few words in detail, and after a while, she really inquired and came back to report: "My lord, the prince is actually not very happy that he has been demoted these days. , Most of the time, I only drink and listen to operas at home with my staff and Qing Ke to relieve boredom. It's just that Cheng Enhou came to visit a few days ago, and suddenly he and the prince became close, and they seemed to have a very good conversation. It is said that our prince invited a few For the second drink, Marquis Cheng En returned the table a few times."

Princess Shen was thoughtful: "I heard that Marquis Cheng Enhou's daughter became a Taoist priest. The Queen Mother loves her very much and summons her from time to time. The Queen Mother and our old lady have always been at odds. Is the prince on good terms?"

The mother-in-law said: "It's also weird. I heard that Marquis Cheng En loved that daughter very much before, but now he probably can't be the emperor's father-in-law, and he is a little depressed. Some expressed dissatisfaction with their daughters."

Princess Shen thought about it for a while, but wrote a letter in private, sealed it tightly, beckoned for the mother-in-law to come, and said in a low voice: "Go and deliver it yourself, don't pass another person, and send it directly to the concierge of Qiyunzhuang I just said it was a letter from Master Chengdi."

The mother-in-law was the one married by Princess Shen, so she was naturally the first-class and the most reliable, so she quickly packed it up and found a car, and went outside the city in no time, and delivered the letter to Qiyun Villa.

The letters and posts from Qiyun Villa were actually all screened by He Changan and presented to the emperor, and this letter from Princess Shen was naturally sent to Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan was a little surprised when he took the letter, but he went to the pagoda. Since the pagoda began to accept officials from Qin Tianjian and the Ministry of Household Affairs, he entered and exited the pagoda through another door, without disturbing anyone at all. Above the second floor, the thirteenth floor is the living room of the Lich.

Lich was standing at the arched window looking out, Xiao Yan walked over to him and asked, "What are you looking at?"

The Lich turned around and saw him smiling: "I know you're here, I'm waiting for you, and I remembered something to discuss with you. My living room is on the thirteenth floor. The thirteenth floor is actually a place in our world. An unlucky number, thirteen means fear and ominous. Now that you come to live with me, do you want to change the floor to a more auspicious one for the living room? I didn’t need to sleep in the past, but the bedroom is just a decoration.”

Xiao Yan said: "How could it be, thirteen is nine states and four seas, what's so bad about it? Let it be like this." He felt a little pity in his heart, Jiu Yao, who had transformed into a lich queen, still felt a little unwilling to resent and complain at the beginning. He deliberately chose the unlucky thirteenth floor as his living place.

Lich said: "Although it's comforting, I like the implication, Kyushu is all over the world, and the world is under control."

Xiao Yan said: "Of course. The character of blessing, thirteen strokes. Wenchang Pagoda, the thirteenth floor is the most auspicious." He took the Lich's hand and touched his belt: "Look, the thirteenth ring of gold and jade, this is The emperor takes it, and others use it as arrogance."

"Ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches correspond to sixty stems and branches, which are used to record the year, and the number thirteen is the number that transcends reincarnation, surpasses all living beings, and transcends time."

Lich was elated by his few words, but Xiao Yan suddenly remembered something: "So, your memory has recovered?"

Lich: "...No."

Xiao Yan stared at him: "Really? You told me yesterday that you remembered the first formation in your first arcane class, and you could still draw it, as well as the Valley of Stars you made...you You really didn't hide it from me?"

The Lich was a little helpless: "I really didn't remember it, it was with you... After that, my mana has been greatly improved, and then I summoned the Mage Tower, and every time I see something, I can recall the previous memories, including what? Familiar small worlds, magic circles, etc. After all, these are the magic circles I drew with my own hands. So I do remember most of the memories before I met you, including my original world, but the strange thing is Some memories after I met you, but I have never recalled them. There are only some very fragmented fragments, messy... as if they were beaten in..."

He stopped suddenly, as if thinking of something, Xiao Yan looked at him: "What did you think of?"

The Lich shook his head: "I'm thinking that either the previous me deliberately sealed my memory to prevent the laws of heaven, or it was for some other purpose. I think there are few people in this world who are smarter than me , then this amnesia situation, if I deliberately caused it, then I'd better let it be, because I will never hurt myself, and I won't hurt you. But believe me, I love you, there is no need Doubt, no need for any memory, I am also sure."

Xiao Yan blushed slightly, and didn't ask any further, just took a letter and handed it to him: "I don't know why Princess Shen ordered someone to deliver a letter to you."

The Lich didn't care: "Who is Princess Shen? Just look at it. Most likely she sent a letter from me because she knew she couldn't write a letter to you. You can handle it."

Seeing his attitude of being one with himself, Xiao Yan felt very relieved, took the paper and silver knife on the table and slowly cut it open: "Prince Shen, that is the former Princess Jin, and King Jin is my brother. They made a mistake in the past, and the assassins they brought into the palace, I lowered their title and changed their title to Shenzi."

He opened the letter and read it, frowned, and the Lich took it over and looked at it: "Marquis Chengen and King Shen have a very close relationship, and then King Shen suddenly asked his son to steal the seeds in the Star Observation Tower? What good are the seeds? Stolen, with your level, you can't see anything special about that seed. Why did Princess Shen write to say this? And who is Marquis Cheng En?"

Xiao Yan said: "Her meaning is very tactful. It means that King Shen was provoked by others. I'm afraid there is something wrong with Marquis Cheng En. You don't remember. Marquis Cheng En is the elder brother of the Empress Dowager and the biological father of the bone lord Sun Xuexiao. I want to protect my son, and it seems that King Shen is too unreliable, so I reminded me privately, after all, I am my own brother and nephew, so I will not let them go to a point of no return."

The Lich thought for a while and said, "Yes, after all, your biological mother is still there."

Xiao Yan folded up the letter: "Smart princess, I'm really impressed."

The Lich said: "That ghost..."

Xiao Yan and the Lich exchanged glances, and the Lich said: "I couldn't figure out how to force it to stay and drive the ghost baby, but now I understand, I think it is also using the blood of the parent and child to cast the curse."

Xiao Yan said: "I thought Marquis Cheng En had been under the control of Lord Bone Lord."

The Lich said: "The living people will be charmed by the Bone Lord, because I am afraid that he is no longer a person."

Xiao Yan remembered the monsters Gan Rulin said: "..."

The Lich reached out to untie the golden crown for him, pulled out the hairpin, and let his jet-black hair hang down: "Don't worry, let the Bone Lord go and find out."

Xiao Yan was caught off guard, stretched out his hand to straighten his hair, and scolded him: "Read the letter carefully, what are you doing with the bun untied? I was thinking of going to see the seeds, there are so many officials over there, and I have to comb my hair again."

The Lich smiled: "You have been working for a day, it's okay if you don't look at it for a day, it's time to relax, the weather is so hot, you are wearing clothes that are too heavy, isn't it stuffy? I will take you to soak in the ice in the forest." Spring." Just after finishing the words, the heavy gold and jade belt with the noble thirteen rings was untied and thrown aside.

Next came heavy robes, cumbersome boots...

Xiao Yan wanted to say something, but he had already been kissed by passionate lips, and fell into a sweet hug and passionate caress.
