Emperor of the Immortal Dynasty

Chapter 8 The Cricket Emperor

"Master Li is dead?"

As if she couldn't believe her ears, the woman repeated it again.

"Really dead?"

"really."

"Where is the body?"

"Together with his subordinates, he was abandoned in the wilderness. After tomorrow, Mr. Commoner Li will only have bones that have been eaten up by jackals, but they can no longer be transported away by bronze horses."

Wang Xin'er said quietly, shaking the teacup lightly, and looked carefully at the woman in plain clothes opposite her.

I haven't seen her in six years, and she hasn't changed in six years. She is dressed in white and has a light face, and she looks like a feather.Under that thin veil, what kind of face is hidden, I am afraid that even after another seven or eight years, the members of the Da Kuang family will never forget it.

At the age of twenty-eight, he made a pilgrimage on behalf of his brother, and the lotus flowers fell in the hall of Kuang Dynasty.Three steps into a speech, seven steps into a chapter, calm and unhurried, responding like a stream, the princes were shocked, and all the officials were convinced.But when she took off the veil, Emperor Kuang, who was only concerned with fighting crickets, suddenly rolled down from the Golden Luan Hall.The princes did not look sideways, the courtiers were serious, only the princess of the Liu Kingdom who was independent in the palace pursed her lips and smiled, but her branches trembled wildly, making the young man who was jokingly called the "cricket emperor" dumbfounded.

The so-called emperor of crickets, but because of an anecdote not passed down in history.When Emperor Kuang was young, he didn't like political affairs, and he was known only as fighting crickets. During the domestic turmoil in Chen Dynasty, some people from Xishan rose up.In less than two months, there were over [-] defectors, and they raided the important town of Chen Guo, and unexpectedly captured a seventh-rank Taoist talisman hidden in this town. With this power, they conquered five cities in half a month, and their lives were devastated.Chen Jun heard that it was difficult to sleep and eat, and he was afraid that the sacrifice of the magic talisman would harm the people, so he asked Emperor Kuang to send a priest to help him.It was extremely urgent, but when the envoy arrived at the Da Kuang Palace, he was told that Emperor Kuang was teasing the crickets. .Knowing about Chen Guo, Emperor Kuang only responded lightly, and it took him a long time to react. He looked at Chen envoy in a daze, scratched his head, pointed to the two crickets in the golden pot, and said, "You are a mighty general." And General Tongtian, I don't know if Aiqing is in love.Seeing Emperor Kuang with a warm smile on his face, Envoy Chen died on the spot, spitting blood.

The Chen Kingdom lasted for more than 400 years, but it was destroyed by crickets. The princes of the other twelve countries dared not speak out because there was still one member of the Da Kuang royal family. One of the few priests in the Kuang Dynasty.

Princess Liu stayed in Tianjing for more than a month, commuting to and from the deep houses of the princes and important officials. When she walked out of the palace on the last day and saw her off, Wang Xiner still remembers the triumphant smile on the corner of her mouth. .Another ten days later, Wang Xiner accompanied the lord back to Wu, but she was greeted by the Wang family who formed a party and privately fined her two or three liang. The vitality of the year was seriously injured.

On the other hand, she returned to the country of Liu with Emperor Kuang's amnesty, and drove alongside Lord Liu.

After six years, we met again, still dressed in white and light-faced, but the princess of the Liu Kingdom seemed to be a different person. From her eyes exposed outside the veil, I could no longer see the pride that made Wang Xiner a little bit apprehensive.

"Snapped!"

The teacup was tipped over, and the fragrance of the three-boiled tea mixed with the tea water spread out. The woman in plain clothes looked at Wang Xiner coldly, and gently parted her red lips.

"Bold Wang Xin'er, you entered our country privately and did not talk about it, but you still committed murder, what crime should you deserve!"

Hearing this, Wang Xiner frowned slightly, but remained calm, drinking tea casually, and said.

"Xin'er is not only innocent, but also has made great contributions. As far as Xin'er knows, His Highness is helping the left minister of the dynasty, who pleases the king with his appearance, and... that person has never been at odds with him, but that person The assistant in the house is Young Master Li. The imperial concubine will be born soon, it would be fine if a little princess is born, but if a little prince is born, I am afraid that those people in the court will not be able to sit still."

After a pause, Wang Xiner said in a low voice, looking at the calm Princess Liu.

"I killed Mr. Li at this time. Not only was I innocent, but I also made a great contribution. It will be much more convenient for His Royal Highness and Prime Minister Zuo to do things in the future."

After the words fell, the Princess of the Liu Kingdom was still as if she hadn't waved the ancient well, and she was not moved at all.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Xiner struggled, got up, knelt down, and kowtowed to the woman in plain clothes.

"Xin'er made a big mistake, and now she is caught in a dilemma for the Liu Kingdom, and she still hopes for the protection of the palace."

There was silence, and suddenly, silver bell-like laughter came, but it was the woman in white who looked at Wang Xiner playfully, stretched out her hand to help her up, slipped her fingers inadvertently across her shoulders, and pinched her gently.

"That's right. You invited me here because you wanted something from me, so how can you turn your back on the guest?"

Standing up, Princess Liu glanced at Wang Xin'er, who looked nervous, and said quietly.

"There was a Daoist talisman to investigate this place before, and your whereabouts have been exposed. Tomorrow, the Japanese Palace will resettle you for you. After three days, I will accompany the Palace to the Moyun Tower. But before that, restrain your subordinates. Palace warrant, it is strictly forbidden to go out...and you, Xin'er."

Hearing this, Wang Xin'er's face was startled, then she turned happy, and kowtowed heavily towards Princess Liu.

When she looked up again, the woman in plain clothes had disappeared. She lightly rubbed the shoulder pinched by the woman, and Wang Xiner's eyes showed disgust, which disappeared in a flash, and the surprise she had deliberately pretended to disappear.

He said that he was helping him to find a place to live, but the implication could not be clearer, it was nothing more than wanting to put me under house arrest.This woman has always been cautious, and she had to see with her own eyes that Mr. Li did not show up in Moyun Tower before she believed it. In this case, she will wait for three days to see the outcome.The exchange of benefits is nothing more than grabbing each other's leverage. She knew that I killed Mr. Li, but she refused to do so. Naturally, she got the leverage.

A lingering smile floated from the corner of her mouth, and the veil fell to the ground, exposing Wang Xiner's face in the shadow of candles.

There are cold black eyebrows on the snow-clear and jade-clean face, a pair of curved eyes are as clear as water, and the cheeks are slightly red, looking forward and looking graceful, especially charming.However, her family is in decline, her family is empty, and there is no sign of the family members who chased her in the past, and she has no choice but to commit herself to Liu Shi, who is over fifty years old, in order to ensure the safety of the family.

"Tonight is full of ups and downs. Fortunately, there is still a Princess of the Liu Kingdom who can use it."

Wang Xiner sighed faintly, looked at the flickering candle, and a small figure floated in front of her eyes for no reason.

"Bochen, Anbochen... is a good name. However, so far, there is no one in this world who has made my Wang family suffer without paying the price. You really don't have the protection of Mr. Li, you can live Tomorrow?"

There was a sneer at the corner of her mouth, Wang Xiner was muttering something, a fiery red centipede was reflected in the depths of her eyes, at first it was as small as a grain of rice, but it grew bigger and bigger.

"call!"

The window lattice was opened, the cold wind rushed in, the candle was shaking uncomfortably, and a three-foot-long flying centipede flew into the inner hall with a "swish".The window lattice was closed, and the red centipede with eight wings on its back gradually became smaller and landed on the woman's arm obediently.

Pointing at the centipede's eyes, Wang Xin'er closed her eyes and murmured something. After a while, she suddenly opened her eyes, and there was a faint surprise in her beautiful eyes.

"It disappeared?"

"It seems that you have a hiding place here in Liujing, but without Mr. Li, where can you hide as a little servant boy. When I stabilize that princess, your good days will be over, Xian Home Cheats..."

The smiles were blooming, as bright as spring flowers, the daughter of the Wang family, who endured the humiliation, got up and walked to the window, looking at the autumn moon in Liujing, she felt in a good mood.

The Wang family has been in decline for four years, but they did not expect to find a turning point so soon, as long as they catch that young man who thinks he is smart, and at the same time muddy Liu Jing's waters a bit.

Even a mere little servant boy bullied him, it is really a shame and a shame, if he is not cut into pieces, how can the hatred in his heart be dispelled.

The candles were extinguished, and the hall was silent, and the weird flying centipede also got into Wang Xiner's arm, turning into faint fire patterns, without a sound.

......

"It's useless for a woman to be beautiful if she's stupid."

On the teahouse not far from Wang Xiner's mansion, in the dead of night, the building was cold, and there was only a tall and slender woman in plain clothes and mask standing alone.

"Using tricks in front of my eyes, those men in Wu are really useless. They haven't trained you well for four years."

There was a hint of playfulness on the cheeks exposed outside the veil, and it disappeared in an instant. Princess Liu was silent for a while, and murmured in a low voice.

"If you really killed Mr. Li, there are only two strategies. The best strategy is to flee back to Wu country immediately, and the worst strategy is to come to seek my protection. If there is nothing in Liujing that you miss, how can you, Wang Xiner?" Will bear the humiliation and send me under the fence."

As she stretched her jade fingers, a Yashan Flying Crow Talisman flew out of her sleeve, and transformed into an iron-billed crow in mid-air, flapping its wings and flying towards the western suburbs.After thinking for a while, Princess Liu popped out two flying crow charms, one flew towards the huge imperial palace lying in the center of Liujing, and the other flew out of Liujing and headed north.

The Yashan Flying Crow Talisman is a fifth-grade Dao Talisman. The divine crow it transforms is not afraid of water and fire, and can fly to the sky and escape from the ground. It is extremely spiritual and valuable, but it has a disadvantage that it can only be used once.But in the hands of Princess Liu, these dao talismans worth nearly a thousand gold are like ordinary pieces of paper, so it would be no pity to sacrifice them casually.

After half a stick of incense, the divine crow flying to the western suburbs flapped its wings and turned around, shaking its head towards Princess Liu, before turning into a ball of black fire and burning into ashes.

"The ability to destroy corpses and traces has not been left behind, so let's wait for three days."

Before finding the corpses of Young Master Li and his party, the princess of the Liu Kingdom remained calm and took out a handprint, and her figure gradually disappeared into the high place of the pavilion.

The Yashan Iron Crow Talisman is nothing in her eyes, but looking at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty in Liuguo, and the two great families in the capital, who would easily use a fifth-grade Dao Talisman.God Crow** turned into
