Strange Tale of Qingluan

At this time, Huang Yan and Shangyuan He Xiang had already entered Luohua Pavilion.

On the tea table, there were three tea bowls quietly placed. The tea lids covered the tea in the tea bowls tightly, and no trace of heat escaped from them. Huang Yan sat quietly in front of the tea table, and did not move the tea bowls in front of him at all. Sitting next to Huang Yan, Mi is also very strict, and dare not move.

Shangyuan He Xiang stood in front of the window, looked outside for a moment, then turned around, and said to Huang Yan: "Father, it's snowing outside, we came just in time."

Huang Yan listened to the words, but did not answer.

Suddenly, the sound of small footsteps came from outside. Shangyuan He Xiang heard the sound and hurried back to the coffee table.

A waiter opened the door and came in, and said loudly, "The Queen Mother is here."

After saying those words, the well-dressed Lou Linrou stepped over the threshold carefully and entered the hall.

Following the two palace maids who came, they gently took off the cloak for her, shook off the little snowflakes stuck to the cloak, folded it up, and stepped aside.

Probably because of being blown by the cold wind along the way, after leaving the cloak, Lou Linrou raised her right hand that was tightly holding onto the champagne, and coughed lightly at the handkerchief, which eased up later. some.

Looking up at the man who still didn't take off his mask, Lou Linrou opened her lips without losing her original kingly aura, "It's been a long time, Huang Guoxiang of Ge Yunguo."

Huang Yan replied: "Indeed. I don't know how you, who have retired to the harem to become the empress dowager, are with your jade body?"

Lou Linrou smiled lightly, as calm as dust, and said: "I can't die for the time being, but I can live for three to five years."

The waiter at the side panicked when he heard the words, and hurriedly blurted out: "Queen! You must never say these words! The queen is a body of gold, and she will surely live a long life!"

Lou Linrou just glanced at the waiter and smiled lightly, then walked to the main seat and sat down.Those waiters, Gong'e, etc., all retreated out tactfully and closed the door.

Huang Yan didn't want to exchange too many pleasantries, so he went straight to the point: "You must know the reason for my visit today."

Lou Linrou confessed calmly: "People from Qingluan City trespassed on your place, it is indeed fake news released by the Ai family."

Huang Yan asked: "I really want to know what is your purpose for releasing this fake news? Is it the meaning of changing from an ally to an opposition?"

Lou Linrou snorted softly, and replied, "The Ai family has never thought of this before."

Huang Yan began to speak bluntly: "You released this fake news to divert people from Qingluan City, because there is a person he wants to take away hidden in this palace, right? Since you are an ally, please send me hand it over."

Lou Linrou replied calmly: "I'm sorry I don't know... Huang Guoxiang's meaning."

Before Huang Yan could answer, Shangyuan Hexiang blurted out first: "Su Zhongming, Lord of Qingluan City! Also ask the Queen Mother Taoxia to hand him over!"

Lou Linrou didn't even look at her, she snorted coldly, and said indifferently: "You wild girl, your adoptive father hasn't said anything yet, how dare you be so presumptuous?"

Shangyuan He Xiang opened his lips to speak, but was stopped by Huang Yan: "He Xiang, this is Taoxia Palace after all, don't be rude."

Shangyuan He Xiang didn't want to accommodate Lou Linrou, but since Huang Yan spoke up, he had no choice but to be more respectful and make amends: "I was a little reckless just now, and I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me."

Lou Linrou smiled faintly and did not answer. She just told a simple lie and said to Huang Yan: "You came to visit Taoxia Kingdom for Su Zhongming? Sorry, there is no such person in Taoxia Palace."

Huang Yan was not fooled at all, and said calmly: "If that's the case, why did people from Qingluan City break into this palace? Can you give me a detailed explanation?"

Lou Linrou was about to open her lips, but heard a yell coming from outside.

"His Majesty is here!"

Shangyuan He Xiang immediately followed Huang Yan's gaze and looked towards the entrance of the hall.

I saw the door of the hall opened, and a noble young man came in, but he had a very familiar face.

Shangyuan He Xiang couldn't help being dumbfounded, and Lian Mi, who had been silent all this time, was also shocked on the spot.And Huang Yan was also surprised, and then blurted out "Tian'er".

Lou Tianying snorted lightly, and replied: "I don't know who the 'Tian'er' you mentioned is. Gu is now called Lou Tianying, and the sky should be me!"

Huang Yan couldn't help but said to Lou Linrou: "It turns out that the dog is with you, and you made him the new king."

Lou Linrou smiled faintly: "He is no longer your adopted son, but mine."

When Shangyuan He Xiang heard the words, he seemed to have guessed the cause and effect, and glanced at Lou Linrou, but did not speak wildly.

Lou Tianying accepted Lou Linrou's words, and boldly said: "Yes! There is no such thing as Zi Tianli or He Xiao in Mufeng Club, there is only one Lou Tianying!"

Shangyuan He Xiang suddenly felt something was wrong, but Lou Linrou didn't dare to speak out in front of her eyes.

Lou Tianying glanced at the two people accompanying Huang Yan. When he recognized Lian Mi, he just stared at him coldly, but when he recognized Shang Yuan He Xiang, he became proud and blurted out: "Isn't this the eldest lady? Unexpectedly, You also came to Taoxia Palace, but I believe that you should not dare to act recklessly here, right?"

Shangyuan He Xiang didn't want to respond at first, but Lou Tianying stared at her side coldly. For the benefit of herself and Mu Fengshe, she chose not to confront Lou Tianying head-on, temporarily aggrieved herself, and politely replied: "King Taoxia is too worried."

Lou Tianying deliberately asked: "What are you doing in Taoxia Kingdom? You don't want to use the power of Taoxia Kingdom to implement some big plan?"

Shangyuan He Xiang replied: "Recently, I got news that the Lord of Qingluan City is in Taoxia Palace." When he said that, he stared at Lou Tianying with a look of conviction.

Lou Tianying put his hands behind his back and calmly denied: "Where did this rumor come from? I haven't seen him for a long time."

Shangyuan Hexiang snorted softly, and said: "It was revealed by the people in Qingluan City that this person once trespassed on the Taoxia Palace, and later, because of the Queen Mother's instructions, he went to Mufeng Club to make trouble for important people."

Lou Tianying lowered his eyes slightly and thought for a while, but he couldn't think of a reason to refute, so he cast his gaze at Lou Linrou.

Lou Linrou was very understanding, and opened her lips: "Why don't you think that the thief was discovered after breaking into the palace, so he used the hands of Mu Fengshe to relieve the resentment? The thief is extremely cunning, and it is also true that he will create rumors that are not good for Taoxia Palace. Most likely."

After repeated questioning, they all denied it. Huang Yan's patience has reached its limit, but this is the palace of a different kingdom. If he really makes a move, he will lose far more than he gains. Huang Yan is also very scheming. For many years, she resolutely endured it, thinking that since Lou Linrou categorically denied it, she would have no choice but to send someone to spy on her in the future.

Not getting the treasure you want, but meeting the adopted son you haven't seen for a long time, is definitely a good harvest.

Huang Yan opened his lips: "That's all, this conversation is still in denial, and I can't continue to make things difficult." After speaking, he stood up, but his eyes fell on Lou Tianying.

Lou Tianying couldn't help meeting that gaze, and then willfully averted his gaze.

Huang Yan stepped forward, and when he leisurely passed by his side, he blurted out: "How about talking to Weifu?"

Shangyuan He Xiang, who was following Huang Yan, couldn't help but glance at Lou Tianying after hearing this sentence, but still followed Huang Yan out of the palace with Lian Mi.

Lou Tianying didn't want to go at first, but the kindness of nurturing for more than ten years has been condensed in his heart like a pearl, even though he is willful, his feet finally moved, and he followed slowly.

On the empty high platform outside the hall, Huang Yan and the three were waiting there, and Lou Tianying stepped forward.Seeing him coming, Shangyuan He Xiang tactfully took Lian Mi to avoid him, and went down to the bottom of the steps first.

Lou Tian stopped in front of Huang Yan, pursing his lips.

Huang Yan asked: "The answer is father, did you leave the helm because of hatred for father?"

Lou Tianying replied frankly: "Yes. I didn't expect you to do that... If you just asked people to sing my flesh and cut my hands and feet, maybe it would only hurt my flesh, but you are...!! You teach I have taught me some kung fu for more than ten years, but I don’t understand. You gave me some things, but you gave them back to others! You hurt my dignity because of someone else’s words! What do you think I am? Is it a watchdog of Mufeng Society!"

As soon as he blurted out, he couldn't help but bring resentment, but Lou Tianying didn't regret it at all.

Huang Yan replied: "You are proud and arrogant, and doing this for your father is also to cultivate you well."

Lou Tianying didn't change his face: "Do you think I will believe your excuse! That day, when I left Shenrao Villa, I had already decided to stand out on my own! Now, the entire Taoxia Kingdom has become my palm! Who dares to look down on me!"

Huang Yan persuaded: "Tian'er. If you don't want to go back with your father, being a father is not too far-fetched for you. It's just that Lou Linrou would pass on the throne to you so easily. Father is an ally, but you also have to be careful."

Lou Tianying didn't listen to the well-meaning care because of his emotions, and still stubbornly said: "You don't need to teach me! Just like what that woman said, I recognize her as a foster mother, so I will no longer be father and son with you." relation!"

"Tian'er..." Huang stretched out a hand, trying to comfort the rebellious adopted son.

However, Lou Tianying disregarded the kindness of the past and revealed his rebellion thoroughly. Before the loving father's hand fell on his shoulder, he ruthlessly waved it away and said cruelly: "From today onwards, you My father-son relationship is severed! From now on, don't come to me again, there is no need to say a word between me and you!"

After saying that, he turned around quickly, walked down the steps gracefully and gracefully.

He passed in front of Shangyuan Hexiang, and Shangyuan Hexiang looked at his figure with regretful eyes, but did not hold him back at all, and turned back to look at Huang Yan above.And only Lian Mi stared straight at his leaving figure.

He didn't speak, and he didn't feel the frustration of losing the pearl. Huang Yan was still a scheming Huang Yan, and walked down to Shangyuan Hexiang with steady steps.

Shangyuan He Xiang couldn't help opening his lips: "Father..."

Huang Yan guessed what she was going to say, and before she could finish speaking, he raised a hand to signal to stop.

Shangyuan Hexiang pursed his lips knowingly, gave up the idea of ​​continuing, only took Lianmi, and followed Huang Yan to leave Taoxia Palace.

In the Luohua Pavilion, Lou Linrou was still sitting and hadn't left yet. The corners of her lips, which had turned white due to illness, were slightly raised, revealing a cunning plan. She said in her heart: As I expected, Huang Yan really I came here for Su Zhongming, but this phoenix has already fallen into my palm, and it is my palm. If others want to take him away, it is simply wishful thinking. From now on, as long as this phoenix is ​​properly tamed, Qingluan City will sooner or later obey me.

The perfect plan made her overjoyed, and she laughed softly, but it touched the root of the disease and rolled to her throat. She immediately covered her mouth with a champagne, and a series of coughing sounds pressed against the kerchief.

Gong'e served hot tea, half kneeling in front of her, she stretched out a free hand and picked up the cup.

After Lou Tianying left Luohua Pavilion, he walked on the road thinking carefully, guessing that the three of Huang Yan might have left the Taoxia Palace, so he ordered the attendant who followed: "Call Baoqin here."

The waiter answered 'yes' and hurried away.

After a while, Baoqin followed the attendant and said with a smile, "What is your majesty's order?"

Lou Tianying started slowly and said, "Do you know the voice of the new queen?"

Baoqin replied truthfully: "The daughter of the people has not seen the new queen yet, so she doesn't know her voice, appearance or appearance."

Lou Tianying asked: "If you have met the new queen and imitated his voice, do you have a chance of winning? Don't be similar, I want you to imitate it exactly! There is no flaw!"

Baoqin was so confident that she simply agreed, "Your Majesty, please rest assured."

Lou Tianying stepped forward and took her to Yimengzhai.

At this time, Su Zhongming was sitting cross-legged on the ground in the hall, playing poker with the guards, his mind was completely concentrated on how to get a good card.

When Lou Tianying brought people to arrive, he saw that there was no one guarding outside the hall, he was extremely surprised and blurted out: "Where are people? Where did everyone go?!"

Bao Qin was stunned for a moment, knowing that something strange happened today, but she dared not speak out because of her humble status.

Lou Tianying then quickened his pace and charged into Yimengzhai.

"Who loses? Whoever loses raises his hand, and the punishment is still dancing and singing." Su Zhongming held his chin in one hand and held the poker in the other, and suddenly blurted out leisurely, not knowing that Lou Tianying had already entered Yimengzhai.

The guards looked at each other, but they all clenched the cards in their hands.One of the guards boldly said: "You...are you sure it wasn't your own card that lost?"

Su Zhongming couldn't help giving a blank look, and confidently put all the poker in his hand on the ground, so that the guards could see it at a glance.After the guards glanced at it, they were slightly startled. It turned out that the biggest cards were all in his hands.

After a moment of silence, only one person slowly raised his right hand.

Su Zhongming said bluntly: "Dance or sing, choose one."

The guard stood up, but lowered his head slightly: "Humble job...not good at singing and dancing..."

Su Zhongming encouraged boldly: "It's okay! Since you lost, you should accept the punishment. Pick one!"

The guard had no choice but to say: "Then, let me sing a little song, you...don't laugh." After finishing speaking, he coughed, cleared his throat, and began to sing.

When the voice started, there was no rhythm, and the out-of-tune was so serious that Su Zhongming couldn't help frowning and raised his hands to cover his ears.

The guard stopped, and said helplessly: "The humble staff just said that they are not good at it, you still..."

Su Zhongming put down his hands, interrupted him, and ordered: "Then dance."

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden serious shout, with a hint of anger that was about to eat people: "You guys are free, instead of sticking to your duties, you are playing in the hall instead?!"

When the guards heard the words, they were so frightened that they wanted to urinate, they hurriedly got up, faced Lou Tianying, knelt down on one knee, and begged for mercy in unison: "Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Lou Tianying didn't show affection at all, and said coldly, "Hmph! Forgive me? If you lose sight of me, even if you cut off ten of your heads, you won't be able to make up for this crime!"

The guards all lowered their heads, and no one dared to refute or cry for injustice.

The author has something to say:

The sun is warm during the day

So I couldn't resist running out for a walk

Randomly bought a few daily necessities and went home...

I haven't been in a good mood for half a month.

I hate dragging my family home to visit my parents

You don't have to stay for half a month.

Not only bring two kids here

Even the marriage partner brought over food, water and electricity...

But two sons are equal to two bears

Whoever gave birth is worse

Happier to have a baby girl
