MTL - I Am Immortal-Chapter 221 seal up!
Chapter 221 Sealed!
Zhou Yihan's expression was a little reserved, but it wasn't just the one he performed in the past, but he really held his breath subconsciously. The girl who was helped out was clearly only seventeen or eighteen years old, with facial features It was originally gentle, but those eyes were deep and deep, and the temperament was as quiet and silent as a deep valley, giving people an unfathomable coldness.
Dressed in plain white clothes, with black socks and blue shoes.
The jade pendant hangs from the waist, but it is not as complicated as an ordinary lady. There is no gold step, gold thread, and only a black wooden hairpin to tie her hair, which adds to the sobriety. Zhou Yihan, who was accustomed to being surrounded by wolves, tigers and leopards, became nervous since he was a child.
The girl flipped through the letterhead that Zhou Yihan had brought, and saw that in the words written on it, she briefly described a magical power called [The Method of Round Light Appearance], and also described the importance of the Seventh Prince. The handwriting is simple, concise and to the point, the Seventh Prince must not die, the world will be in chaos if he dies, the monsters will commit crimes, the military will be in a slump, and there will be a big defeat.
How to save Li Zhai is as simple as eight words.
【Take it as a name】
【Forcing the situation】
Fu also mentioned that if the emperor released Li Di, he would have a sentence for Li Di.
Li Qiongyu put the letter away, her face didn't change at all, she just smiled and said, "Thank you, miss, for making a trip."
"No trouble, no trouble."
"It just happened to happen, and I have to thank the Taoist priest for not getting angry."
Zhou Yihan took the initiative to mention the young Taoist priest he met.
Li Qiongyu raised her eyes slightly, and said, "I don't know where I met him."
Zhou Yihan couldn't see the slightest emotion from Li Qiongyu's face, that face was like a statue carved out of fine white jade, and his eyes were like black gemstones, so he looked at her calmly, so Zhou Yihan didn't dare to look at her. To make any embellishments, I had no choice but to tell the story of how I met the young Taoist priest and how I was appointed by him.
Li Qiongyu sat there quietly, like a dignified mountain god.
The white palm was shrouded in the wide sleeves of the white robe, and only the index finger was gently tapping on the table.
"I see…"
Li Qiongyu's voice paused slightly, and then said:
"So, Miss Zhou came here to seek a way out for the Runan Zhou family?"
Zhou Yihan's body paused slightly. She didn't say these things before, or in other words, such things were hidden in her heart, and it was impossible to say them unless it was a life-and-death moment. Color paused slightly.
Li Qiongyu said: "Miss Zhou doesn't have to make many choices, she can stay in Prince Qin's Mansion first."
"In a short time, you will be fine, and neither will the Zhou family."
But at this time, the woman in Tsing Yi came here in a hurry again, looked at Li Qiongyu, her expression faintly lost her previous composure, Zhou Yihan saw that her face was slightly pale, and the light in her eyes was shaking violently, but it was more than that. Compared with when he told Yu she was the young Taoist, his reaction was even stronger.
One is delighted.
But at this moment, it was pure shock.
Zhou Yihan quickly narrowed his eyes, his face was harmless and ignorant, as if he had fallen into a strange environment and was helpless and ignorant of everything, so people would not be on guard. Li Qiongyu glanced at her and called the woman in Tsing Yihan Come, the maid in Tsing Yi whispered a few words in Li Qiongyu's ear, her palm trembling slightly, Li Qiongyu's eyes were peaceful.
"Miss Zhou, are you deciding whether to marry the Seventh Prince?"
"You might as well sit behind the screen."
Zhou Yihan was stunned.
Seeing that Li Qiongyu's eyes were calm, but ripples appeared: "The seventh prince is just outside the door."
Zhou Yihan: "!!"
The seventh prince, Li Zhai, wore a hood to cover his thin face like a sick tiger. At dusk, he was brought into the Qin Palace with a red lantern by the attendants of the Qin Palace. After he was released, He staggered up and came out, only to see that the mansion, which was originally blocked by layers, was empty, only some coils were placed in conspicuous places.
But after Li Di left here, he didn't leave as quickly as the emperor had expected.
Instead, he went straight to the Qin Palace.
Under the setting sun, the red lantern revealed the color of blood. Li Di walked to the lobby. When the door opened, he saw a girl in white clothes sitting in the first place, her eyes were staring at each other. Ripples appeared in Li Qiongyu's eyes, and said: "Seventh brother."
"Qiongyu, thank you for being able to recognize me."
"I was scared to death when I looked in the mirror, hahaha, what the **** is this?"
Li Zhai laughed, and took off the hood used by military strategists. The face that was originally in high spirits had already been emaciated due to the illness in his heart, showing traces of cheekbones, but his eyes were particularly cold and charming. God, he sat on a stool on one side, swept over a cup of tea on the table, didn't say much, and said succinctly:
"The emperor let me go."
“He said he has difficulties, and there are things he has to do while sitting in his position.”
"I believe half of his words, because the best lies are always half-truths and half-false to deceive people."
"I was stunned. I didn't even know which ones were true and which ones were fake. My royal father, it's true. It's a pity not to be an actor!"
Li Di laughed a few times, then sighed: "But, some things are true..."
Li Qiongyu didn't say anything, she knew that Li Di came here just to explain some things briefly, Li Di was silent for a while while holding tea, and said: "I don't know what happened back then, what the internal affairs were like, but I I know, you came here to avenge your father and clear up your father's grievances, and the ambitions of the five surnames and seven sects, and the cunning of the fourth brother, these are all true."
"It is also true that the emperor's reputation has been cut."
"In other words, there is a possibility of troubled times."
"Hey, the fact that I was taken down and thrown into a big prison was witnessed by the envoys from the surrounding small countries. They have always been short-sighted. Now there may be hidden dangers at the border. No matter how many things the emperor said were wrong, there was one sentence that was wrong. Really, once the country is in chaos, the frontier will be lost, and when the two are intertwined, there will be chaos and the people will suffer."
"I can't just let this go."
"Is it possible? No."
"Even if I guess in my heart that he came to me because of a soft plan, so that he may just want the situation to be simpler and under his control, so he let me leave the capital, I have to obey him It is unavoidable to avoid the arrangement, this is an upright conspiracy, even if I know his purpose, there is nothing I can do about it."
Li Di gulped down the tea, saying:
"Brother Qi Qi is not a smart person, but I know that military strategists don't want to fight for the king and become the emperor."
"It's about protecting the country and the people."
"Being the emperor? I don't have that interest. If I were to sit on that chair, it would be more interesting to sit on the mound of the grassland and watch the border people pick up the dried cow dung and go back to the fire."
"Besides, I don't have such a brain."
The leader of the military family closed his eyes, as if he had seen the scenery of the border, and murmured: "I will be stationed at the border, as long as I am still alive, I will not let the Yaozu and other countries invade the border, but...don't set off a chaotic world, don't Because you lost your father, countless people and soldiers of mine will also lose their father, Qiongyu, this is my only request."
Li Di opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and leaned forward. His eyes looked at the girl above him calmly, but he also had an indescribable vigor.
Once Li Qiongyu makes other choices.
Within seven steps, he will kill her directly.
At this moment, the leader of the military strategist seems to have begun to understand other schools besides the magnificent military situation.
It's not just the young and hot blood, it's just the kingly way of war that uses power to overwhelm others.
Forcibly stabilize the situation, so that the country will not be chaotic, and belong to the fourth prince, and he will guard the border for life.
Li Qiongyu looked at him and said quietly: "I swear."
"It will restrain Ah Feng."
Li Zhai looked at her fixedly, and the [Mirror Mind Method] of the military leader reflected Li Qiongyu's heart.
So he scratched his head, as if he was honest and simple when he was still in Zhongzhou before everything happened, laughed a few times, and said: "Ah Feng listens to you the most, I believe you, then, Seventh Brother, I will leave Now, you go and call yourself the king and seize the emperor, I'm afraid I won't be able to add the title of "King" behind my name in my life."
"It's not bad to be just a general until death."
Li Di waved his hand and got up.
Li Qiongyu said: "Seventh brother."
Li Di smiled and said, "Huh? What's the matter, sister."
Li Qiongyu said: "There is an acquaintance Taoist, ask me to say a word to you."
"Um?"
"Deeds speak louder than words, but if you listen too much, you will be dark."
Li Di's eyes changed slightly.
Li Qiongyu said: "If Seventh Brother wants to know what happened back then, you might as well go to Jinzhou when you go to the border."
Recalling what the emperor said in Li Di's mind, he narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded, and said concisely: "I will." He put on his hood again and walked out slowly. Li Qiongyu said in a soothing tone, "Miss Zhou, Come out."
Zhou Yihan came out from behind the screen, his face pale.
Li Qiongyu said: "The emperor let him go, so he won't do anything to your Zhou family."
"Just, what are you going to choose?"
Zhou Yihan gritted his teeth. It seemed that it was not difficult to choose between being the fourth concubine of the fourth prince, and accompanying a man who was recognized as a hero to the border and never coming back, but it seemed to be extremely difficult to choose. In the end, she Said: "I am willing to accompany the Seventh Prince..."
Li Qiongyu raised her eyes and said in a calm tone: "Very good decision."
"Then, Ms. Zhou might as well give me the envoy's seal of the Zhou family."
She smiled slightly.
When he laughed, he was not as cold as usual, and said:
"No matter who wins or loses in the end, the Zhou family will be safe."
The fourth prince wins, and Zhou Yihan is the wife of the seventh prince. Because of the importance of brotherhood, she will not completely liquidate her Zhou family; if the King of Qin wins, then the Zhou family will be the hero who assists the King of Qin in the battle, and the Zhou family can also be safe. , and she herself will be in a safe position anyway.
Zhou Yihan looked at the cool and elegant beauty in front of him, and said word by word:
"King Qin can also have the most valuable first aid when his power is weakest, right?"
Li Qiongyu asked: "So, what is your decision?"
Zhou Yihan took out a seal, gently placed it on the table, then exhaled, turned and left Qin Palace, and then she rode a fast horse, chasing the Seventh Prince away, Li Qiongyu held the Zhou family's seal In his hand, he looked at the setting sun outside, his shoulders were thin, his eyes were gentle, he took out the letterhead, and lightly brushed the words left by the young Taoist priest with his palm.
The girl from the Zhou family, who is gentle on the outside and decisive on the inside, is captured by the leader of the military family who is proficient in anti-stalking.
With a pale face, he said, "Stop, stop!"
"No, don't kill me."
Like a sick tiger, Li Di was cold: "If you hadn't noticed your aura at Qiongyu just now, you would have died under my sword. Say, who are you?"
"I, I am your fiancee!"
Li Di's expression froze: "Huh?!"
"I, I am from the Zhou family, and I will accompany you to the border."
"What?!"
Li Zhai looked this weak girl up and down, sneered, and put away his weapon, guessing that Qiongyu was worried about herself.
So lazily said: "If you are not afraid of death, just follow."
Historians are always fond of the legend of the brave and mighty king who rose from a desperate situation. In the era when the throne was shaken, this hero who was the most amazing and talented military strategist in the past dynasties chose to retreat bravely and give up sitting on the highest position. Opportunity, rushed to the border, and the storytellers among the three religions and nine streams are in love with the stories of King Mighty and his concubine.
The mighty and mighty king who used to be willful and romantic, but fell in love with the descendants of the Zhou family who were overthrown by his ancestors eight thousand years ago.
The legendary deeds were compiled into countless stories and passed down in the teahouses and restaurants of later generations.
These stories are always condemned by historians as unofficial affairs.
But even the strictest historian must admit this.
For the Mighty King who fought all over the battlefield, it seemed that the iron blood had never stepped back half a step. The girl who appeared when he was most embarrassed and at the bottom of his life was an extremely important existence. Abandoned, severely wounded, the Mighty King, who was full of hostility like a sick tiger, walked on the majestic and righteous path again.
No matter what its original purpose is, at the end of the story, it is like a ray of wind passing over the battlefield, a colorful ribbon tied on the battle robe of the mighty king, and it is the most important existence that cannot be ignored.
The brave and mighty king, his wife has no veins, and it is difficult to have children.
The king will never marry again.
—"Famous Generals in the World · Human Race · Brave and Mighty King"
On the second day, the Human Emperor held a grand court meeting, which was the first large court meeting after the crown prince was deposed.
And after the crown prince was abolished, the whole world was undergoing subtle changes. Even the ministers in the court, the aristocratic families with five surnames and seven sects, subconsciously chose new supporters, and in the end they mainly converged into two factions. One is the Fourth Prince Li Hui, and the other is Qin Wang Li Weifeng.
One recognizes the name and power of the four princes, and the other recognizes the power and name of the King of Qin, as well as the unbearable guilt in his heart for what happened back then.
Even today, there is a faint distinction between civil and military officials.
"Go to court, all officials will see you!"
Accompanied by extremely loud voices, the officials, King Qin, and the four princes entered.
The emperor sat on a high position with a pale face. The emperor nodded slightly, motioned to the **** leader on one side, and read out the imperial decree. Personality, now there are four princes, Hui, who is young and talented, with literary and military virtues, and now, he is the crown prince!"
So fourth prince Li Hui's eyes flashed with surprise, while many civil and military officials were beaming.
In the first imperial decree.
The prime minister closed his eyes slightly and remained silent.
Let the Seventh Prince leave, stabilize the people's hearts and the military border, suppress the prince, support the fourth prince as the prince, suppress the King of Qin, and liquidate the family that supported the King of Qin. For the current emperor, it is the emperor's means to win over the division, understate it, cultivate heirs, and stabilize the country.
But at this time, the **** took out the second edict!
said: "Today, Xuanqin King Li Weifeng has been promoted from the second-rank county king to the first-rank prince."
"Give the sword to the temple."
"You can enter the court but not worship!"
The civil and military officials behind Li Weifeng were also delighted among the aristocratic family, but the old prime minister suddenly opened his eyes. He couldn't believe it, his scalp was numb, and he felt the tit-for-tat between the crown prince and King Qin, and the division of civil and military officials. Chilling, this, this is not just a way of dividing, suppressing, and wooing the emperor, this is for...
The old prime minister raised his head, and all the civil and military officials were excited behind the King of Qin and the crown prince.
It's not that they can't see the danger, but their current attention is attracted by the extremely bright future.
The wages of avarice is death.
And the emperor sits on a high place, on the cold throne, holding the throne with both hands, his eyes are lowered, the beads of the twelve crowns spread out, covering his eyes and face, he can't see clearly, as if overlooking everything, everything is under control .
