The woman had long hair that flowed like silk. Although she took off her palace dress, she was still in a big red skirt, burning and radiant.
Concubine Li is still the gorgeous beauty at the beginning. It has been nearly a hundred days since she changed from the palace. The long campaign has not made her look haggard at all, but more and more beautiful.
In the hair room in three stacks of cloud bun, the jade sparrow gold hairpin shook the makeup step by step, and her colorful embroidery was brilliant, but it didn't capture her frightening brilliance.
Xiao mubai was taken to the pavilion to wait with her steps. She looked at her walking slowly from the glow of the sunrise in late spring. She was dressed in gauze and surrounded her like a light cloud. Along the way, she also folded a pear flower. The bright white color overlapped with her catkins.
"Your Highness King Mo, this palace is your elder at least. Can't you be polite?" Princess Li glanced at him faintly and leaned against the fence, speechless laziness and unspeakable elegance.
"Now everyone has to kill her. What's the use of these false gifts?" Xiao mubai's face was calm and his tone was cold.
"Everyone gets to kill it?" Concubine Li's eyes moved from the pear flower in her hand to Xiao mubai: "the person who was killed should be the prince."
Xiao mubai's mouth showed a touch of sarcasm: "since my mother knows that I have been poisoned for a long time, she has now fulfilled the king's reputation of dedicating myself to the people of the city. It takes a lot of trouble, but the gain is not worth the loss."
Concubine Li smiled brightly as she looked around: "the prince knows the truth. Will this palace let you do what you want?"
Xiao mubai's eyes sank and her eyebrows frowned slightly. When they discussed last night, they all thought that concubine Li hated Xiao mubai for stopping Xiao Yanjun's great cause again and again. Concubine Li was angry, but she wanted to burn jade and stone under the trapped animals.
But now listen to the meaning of concubine Li, you don't intend to kill him at all?
Xiao mubai couldn't understand the meaning of concubine Li's move for a moment. He didn't want to kill him. Did he really come to negotiate?
He looked calm and asked calmly, "my mother still wants a way to live now?"
Princess Li ignored Xiao mubai's question. She leaned against the fence and waved. The maidservants under the pavilion sent cooked glutinous rice porridge with six exquisite dishes on the stone table in the pavilion.
Concubine Li washed her hands in the basin held by Lian Yan, and then took the white fine linen towel to wipe her hands. She moved slowly and gracefully, showing the noble spirit of the palace for many years.
"What is your intention to let the king into the city?" Xiao mubai looked at her and became more and more unsure of her intention.
Imperial concubine Li sat directly on the stone pier. Gong Yi asked him, "although it can't compare with the food in the imperial dining room, it has a different flavor. Do you want to use some together?"
Xiao mubai turned a white eye instead of answering. Princess Li laughed and sneered: "why, the prince has been poisoned for years, and he's afraid it won't work?"
Xiao mubai recalled that before she left the palace to jianfumen palace, she suddenly stopped and looked back. In the thin cherry lips, three words spit out against the wind: "it's the emperor."
Chengying suddenly came out of the scabbard with his memories, carrying the sound of the broken wind, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at concubine Li.
"If the palace is dead, the whole fortress will be in ruins." Concubine Li raised her eyes and looked at him. Her willow eyebrows were light and confident.
The film stopped three inches away from her throat. He had just come all the way and observed the people around him. Although there were many caregivers under the pavilion, they were far away. He had a chance to kill.
Concubine Ke's words made his sword unable to pierce.
He can kill concubine Li, but he can't kill all the people in the lingmen in the hospital. However, if there is a message left alive, the long letter will burn jade and stone.
His hand holding the sword was tight and loose, loose and tight. Finally, his wrist turned over and took the picture back to the scabbard.
In silence, Xiao mubai went to one side and looked out against the railing. He looked at the clouds in the sky and calmed the ups and downs just stirred by her words in his chest.
Imperial concubine Li didn't insist on him either. She ate alone, sipping her food quietly, dignified and decent. She didn't look at Xiao mubai at all. It seemed that she completely forgot Xiao mubai looking out of the fence and was still waiting for her answer.
When she finished her breakfast, the maid took down the leftover dishes and dishes, and Lian Yan lit a incense burner for her. The fragrance was lingering. Princess Li rinsed again, drank a Guzhu purple bamboo shoot, and finally slowly opened her mouth: "for the sake of your short life, why dirty the hands of the palace. The most important thing is that the people around the palace don't want you to die."
Xiao mubai didn't make waves about what she said in front of him. The Emperor didn't even know what ice Gu had solved on him. Concubine Li naturally thought he didn't have a few years to live.
But her last sentence made Xiao mubai suddenly look back.
Princess Li finally showed a hurt expression when she saw his unpopular face, and the smile on the corner of her lips became more and more sweet: "the prince is so smart that he must have guessed it long ago. However, he always doesn't want to take off the following to see you. He deceives himself and others and pretends that you know nothing."
A slight fluctuation suddenly appeared on Xiao Mu's white face and soon subsided as before.
He said sarcastically, "I don't know if it's polite to tell you that Xiao Yanjun died when my mother ran out of food."
Princess Li's blooming smile slowly coagulated, lowered her head and eyes, covered up her remaining expression, and opened her mouth sadly after a long time: "eternal fame, exquisite country, ridiculous, my son's life, but there is no king's life."
There was reluctance in her tone, but there was no pain.
Xiao mubai looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. How cold can he be so indifferent.
When Princess Li looked up again, she was still the smiling face: "since you let your fourth brother return to Beijing, according to the palace's understanding of the emperor, the worst thing is to demote him into a common people's circle and ban him for a lifetime. He can't die."
A trace of uneasiness flashed across the bottom of Xiao mubai's eyes. Although Xiao Yanjun was taken by him, he planned to take him back to Beijing and let the emperor see him.
But it happened in Changyuan pass. At that time, concubine Li had already been besieged by old general Zhao. How did she learn the news?
"Since my empress let me enter the city, I must ask for something. Since I gave Xiao Yanjun a chance to face the saint first, can my empress also give the people of the fortress a way to live?" Seeing that she already knew that Xiao Yanjun was not dead, Xiao mubai simply spread out her words, hoping that she, as a mother, would somehow scruple her own son.
"It's the Lord's fault to frighten the palace." Imperial concubine Li covered her heart lightly, as if she were frightened, and her face looked frightened, like a heartwarming girl.
Xiao mubai closed his eyes, endured a chill at the bottom of his heart, and resisted the impulse to pull out the background.
"Since the king has entered the city, he is not afraid of death, not to mention you know that the king has few years left." When Xiao mubai raised his eyes again, a pair of Phoenix eyes were cold and fierce: "don't force the king, what are you... Going to do?"
