Chapter 1037 The only heir to the throne
Su Jiu glanced at Pan'er.

This guy is ashamed to say that Su Runmo doesn't give her a good face, don't you know what she did?
In order to attract Su Runmo's attention, he burned all his clothes while he was taking a bath, making his face black for three days with anger!

She held her chin, "Pan'er, if you really want to get back together with Su Runmo, you should find a way to apologize to him first, such as making two clothes for him, or buying two."

Juan'er pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay then, I'll follow Sister Su's idea. I heard that girls in the Central Plains like to make clothes for your husband with your own hands. I'll learn a little bit too."

She had something to do and ran back to her tent excitedly.

There was no personal noise in Su Jiu's ears, and he felt much cleaner. He picked up the chess piece with his slender fingers, and stared at the chessboard hesitantly.

After hesitating for an unknown amount of time, a big hand stretched out from behind and gently held her hand.

The man pressed her hand, and dropped the chess piece on the edge of the board, "Put it here, and you can revitalize a large piece."

Su Jiu smiled, "Sure enough, the authorities are obsessed with the bystanders."

"The authorities can't be fooled..." Xiao Tingchen tapped her little head, "After all, those who play chess are insiders, not bystanders."

"You seem to be in a good mood." Su Jiu poured him a bowl of hot wine, "But what's the good news?"

Xiao Tingchen took the wine bowl, glanced at the chess game, and curled his thin lips lightly, "Just wait, there will be distinguished guests coming to visit within three days."

Seeing his confident appearance, Su Jiu smiled unconsciously, "We'll wait and see."

The festive lantern tent is warm, but the southern country outside the tent is precarious, and the whole country is full of uneasy atmosphere.

Xichan Palace, inside the Imperial Study Room.

The aging Hong Taishi was sitting sideways, holding a cup of tea in his old hands, and slowly stroking the lid of the tea.

Opposite her, the lights were off, and the screen was enveloped in darkness, and a young man could be seen sitting on the grand master's chair in front of the screen.

The moonlight fell through the window lattice, and his brocade robes swayed gently in the night wind. The golden streamlines reflected sharp dark lights, like a beast lurking in the depths of the night, giving people an extremely dangerous feeling.

Taishi Hong said slowly: "'Jinyi walks at night, all ghosts retreat, Yulou blows the flute, and the imperial concubine gets drunk', these are the four wonders of ghost prisons. Among them, 'Jinyi walks at night' refers to you, Cheng Jinyi, General Cheng. I heard that the general is good at marching and fighting at night, and often catches the enemy by surprise, he is a fierce general under the King of Ghost Prison. The general traveled thousands of miles to visit Xichan, why not?"

The man was still sitting in the darkness, his voice was calm and he couldn't hear the ups and downs of emotion, "Xichan has lost half of his territory under Dayong's iron cavalry. Now Emperor Dayong personally marched, and the army has reached the border... Hong Master, can you really protect Xichan?"

"If you can't keep it, so what?"

"If you can't keep it, you will destroy the country."

Grand Master Hong gently stroked the tea cover.

There were no floating leaves on the water surface, and even the water temperature gradually cooled down, but she couldn't stop this movement at all, as if this was the only way to bring herself a little sense of security in front of this man.

Her voice was old and haggard: "Destroy the country, so what?"

"When the country is destroyed, tens of millions of Xichan people will be like dogs in mourning. They will be in constant fear. In the future, Grand Master Hong's name will be written as the last grand master of Xichan, and he will be ridiculed and ridiculed forever."

Taishi Hong's fingertips trembled slightly, and the tea lid collided with the wall of the cup, making crisp and clear sounds in the darkness.

For a moment, she smiled lowly, "So what if all the generations are ridiculed? But I hope that this life will be worthy of my heart and my family and country."

"Or..." There was a slight smile in the man's voice, "The grand master can consider cooperating with our ghost prison. The king is merciful, as long as the grand master joins us in attacking Dayong, the king will promise the grand master to keep the Xichan kingdom. Even, I will also support the Grand Master to ascend the throne as the new Empress Xichan."

The teacup in Taishi Hong's hand finally couldn't hold it steady, and it smashed to pieces on the ground with a "bang".

The night wind was cold, blowing the candles in the house for a long time.

At the moment when the flames were shining brightly, Grand Master Hong saw that the man had a handsome appearance, and his long and narrow eyes were filled with intense darkness and suppressed anger, as if he was about to burn the entire Central Plains.

And on the back of his hand was a strange red lotus symbol.

She knew that it was the sign of the ghost prison.

After pondering for a long time, she said slowly, "This is a big matter, so I'm sorry I can't give you a direct answer."

Cheng Jinyi stood up, "The king has already expected that he is willing to give you time to think...before Xichan destroys the country."

His figure turned into black smoke and disappeared in place.

The oppressive feeling that filled the study dissipated as he left, Grand Master Hong let out a long breath, and leaned weakly on the back of the chair.

The maid came in to clean up the ground, looked at her expression anxiously, and said softly: "I have never seen such an expression on the face of the Grand Master, but what did the guest say just now?"

Grand Master Hong pinched his brows and shook his head slightly.

The palace maid picked up the broken porcelain pieces and retreated respectfully.

Moonlight Palace.

Taishi Hong wearily turned to a portrait in the back of the study, which was their deceased emperor.

She said softly: "This minister will never abandon his homeland, and this minister will always be loyal to the Xichan royal family... It's just the emperor, Nana, she's a little bit unbelievable, called Weichen, what should I do?"

All sounds are silent.

A tall and tall figure suddenly appeared in the imperial study room. He stood with his hands behind his back in the darkness, and looked at Grand Master Hong with a smile, "The king is not up to date, but his subjects are heartbroken. As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and Grand Master Hong followed him." Wrong person."

Master Hong looked up.

The man was wearing a tunic brocade robe and stood with his hands behind his back, with a big red-haired spider lying on his shoulders, tall and straight, handsome and majestic.

She smiled calmly, "What kind of wind has brought Mr. Wu from Dayong Kingdom here?"

Wu Song walked towards her with a smile, "I was ordered by the emperor to come here to give two gifts to the Grand Master."

"Oh?"

Wu Song put a wrench on the table.

Grand Master Hong looked over and found that the finger was carved with dragon patterns, it was the one that Nangong Nanai often wore.

She sneered, "Why, Xiao Tingchen brought Nangong Nanai too? It's a pity that the old minister no longer regards her as a monarch. Xiao Tingchen's plan to use her as a hostage to threaten the old minister is probably in vain."

"No. The emperor also hates traitors like Nangong Nana who betray their home and country, so he brought her here specially, and intends to hand her over to the grand master himself." Wu Song unhurriedly took out a scroll from his wide sleeve, " Another great gift is the person in the painting."

The portrait spread out on the desktop.

Grand Master Hong looked over and saw that the figure in the painting was charming and strange.

She raised her eyebrows, "This is..."

Wu Song: "When the first emperor of your country traveled to Qi State, he had a dewy relationship with a nobleman of Qi State. After that, she gave birth to a girl, and ordered someone to secretly give it to the nobleman of Qi State to raise him. And the girl It's none other than Bei Xing'er, the talented person appointed by the Holy Majesty today. Our family thought that Grand Master Hong still wanted to be loyal to the Xichan royal family after all. Instead of letting Nangong Nana sit on the imperial chair, Bei Xing'er could sit on it... ... What does the grand master think?"

Master Hong was stunned on the spot.

The late emperor, she actually has a child? !
She had heard from the late emperor that she had a romantic relationship that night, but she didn't know that she had a child!

She frowned, "It's very important, I have to meet that child in person! I want to ask her a few questions, if I can really answer them, then..."

She pressed her heart throbbing.

Wu Song smiled, "My master will welcome the Grand Master very much."

Tianshu investigated the nobles of the aristocratic family in Chang'an City in detail, and accidentally found out the secret of Bei Xing'er's life experience.

Although Bei Xing'er had already died in the game between the imperial power and the aristocratic family, Xiao Tingchen took advantage of this opportunity perfectly, disguised Su Jiu as Bei Xing'er, and forced her to memorize everything related to Bei Xing'er early in the morning.

Grand Master Ren Hong made all kinds of inquiries and investigations, but he would only get one result——

Dayong's Bei Cairen is the only heir to Xichan Kingdom!
