How about a bowl of Mengpo soup

Beside the Naihe Bridge, the ghosts lined up, taking soup bowls from the woman in white one after another, drinking the light brown soup, and forgetting the past in the world of mortals.

A long spoon is lightly scooped into the wooden barrel, and another bowl is taken out, exuding fragrance.The wind blew, and ripples appeared in the blue and white soup bowl, shaking the beautiful face reflected in it.And there seemed to be something in his heart that was broken and pierced into the flesh.

The man in white frowned.

"Meng Wanyan..." The judge in Tsing Yi who just came here saw her and called her softly, with a lot of worry in his expression.She regained her senses, forced a smile at the person, and handed out the bowl in her hand.Then soon, the few ghosts who were going to cross the bridge that day all followed the ghost soldiers and left slowly.

The lanterns on the bridge were extinguished, and the cold wind suddenly picked up.

"How did you come here today?" Meng Wanyan lowered her head and packed her things.The judge in Tsing Yi standing aside raised his eyes to look at the vast misty river in the distance, and said in a low voice, "It's nothing... just want to take a look."

The movements of her hands slowed down, and Meng Wanyan looked up at her, knowing that the other party was worried about her.But in fact, in the past few months, the person in front of him may not be much better than himself, not only his smile is much less, but there are still two black circles under his eyelids.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry too much." The man in white pursed his lips, lowered his head and put on the storage ring again.The judge in Tsing Yi beside him lowered his eyes and remained silent, his hair was a little disheveled by the cold wind.

She said again: "I heard from Si Ming that Yan You went to the mortal world."

Feng Wuya's expression changed slightly, his eyes became more and more dim.She knew that Yan You was in the mortal world, but she kept sending ghost messengers to look for her but couldn't find any clues.I don't know where that person is now, if he is doing well...

"This time, I really let her down. Maybe she won't forgive me..." Meng Wanyan said quietly, her throat was a little astringent, but the corners of her mouth slightly raised: "I know, She must not want to see me now. But it doesn't matter, I will wait for her to come back. "

Waiting for her to come back... Feng Wuya's eyes trembled, and he was a little moved.It's just that the frown still didn't relax, and he said sullenly: "Then... what if she doesn't come back."

"In another year, if she doesn't come back, I will go find her myself." Meng Wanyan's tone became firm, but the sourness in her eyes still couldn't be restrained, "No matter where she is, I will bring her She found it, and will never let her go again. "

A tear slid down and splashed on the back of his hand.She stared blankly at the wetness on her hands, and suddenly realized that somewhere in her heart was empty, and something was pulled away from it, and then filled with coldness.

Sure enough... my heart still hurts.

The man in white bit his lips tightly, his figure looked extraordinarily thin in the cold wind.

Feng Wuya was stunned, and opened his mouth to say something, but the woman in front of her quickly wiped away the wet marks from the corners of her eyes, and smiled at her, "It's just that I was blinded by the wind and sand."

……

In Pluto's study, a broken sound suddenly sounded.

The two maids standing quietly outside the door all trembled.Then, another little maid came out with a tray in her hand containing some pieces of broken porcelain that were ready to be disposed of.

They looked at each other a few times, the little maid stuck out her tongue, and whispered to the other two: "Then Prison Chief Liu and Chief Executioner Zhao have really offended the Queen this time." Tray, while thinking about the pity, walked towards the long corridor in the distance.

In the study, Ji Lan was sitting in front of the case, lightly tapping a prison loss record, staring sharply at the two men kneeling with their heads bowed over there: "You guys want to rebel, don't you?"

Prisoner Liu gritted his teeth and raised his head, with some hatred hidden in his eyes.It was this woman who killed their king and took everything here. He only blamed himself for not being able to avenge the king, and now he even listens to the other party's orders!Suppressing the anger, he exhaled, and replied in a deep voice: "The prison has been sealed for a long time, and the king didn't send anyone to reinforce it, so he almost let them escape."

"Really." Ji Lan narrowed her eyes, and her breath became dangerous: "Soldier Hell, a seal is imposed once every 200 years. The resentment of death is too deep. You must burn incense to calm your soul on the [-]th of each month. Be vigilant. Every other Shijibei patrols alternately in shifts, but..."

She lengthened her tone, and the expressions of the two people over there suddenly became a little ugly.

"You didn't burn the soul-suppressing incense in time, and... drank alcohol." Ji Lan looked down at them, clapped one hand on the table, and her tone suddenly turned cold: "Don't you know what kind of detainees are in this prison?" The evil ghost?! Don’t you know what the consequences will be if the prison door is broken?!!”

The powerful pressure hit, and the two of them kneeled down immediately, with cold sweat oozing from their foreheads.They didn't expect that the newly appointed queen would be so familiar with prison affairs. They were surprised and unwilling, but at the same time felt deeply afraid, and also felt a lot of guilt that they didn't want to admit.But he still insisted and murmured: "This is a momentary mistake, we..."

"Do you think Yan You can come back like this?"

Ji Lan looked at the two men coldly, and said loudly: "I hope you can distinguish between public and private, and don't do such things that endanger the safety of the Nether Realm and ruin everything that Yan You has worked so hard to manage. Next time, I will find someone more stable and responsible to take your place."

After finishing speaking, he threw down the next volume of decree, "Go to the Examination Division to receive the punishment."

"...Yes." Prison Chief Liu picked up the decree, and retreated with the criminal officer beside him with a gray face.

At this time, I saw the little maid who came back peeking inside the door for a few moments.Ji Lan glanced over, she immediately shook her body, obediently walked in and stood up, then lowered her head and said cautiously: "My lord, Lord Yinshan Qixiu please see me."

The person who was about to write with a pen stopped: "Who are you talking about?"

"That... Yinshan Qixiu Shenjun..." Seeing the queen's brows frowning, Xiaoxi shut her mouth and didn't dare to say any more.And the person at the other end seemed to have heard something strange and unpleasant, and his face suddenly darkened a little.Then he threw away the pen in his hand and murmured to himself in a low voice: "That dead face? What is she doing here?"

"Why, I can't come?" Suddenly a female voice came from outside the door, Xiaoxi immediately turned to look, and saw a graceful figure walking into the palace room.The eyebrows are picturesque, the blue and white plain skirt is clear and elegant, and the temperament is absolutely dusty.

Fairy sister... A certain maid pressed her heart.

Qixiu Tingting walked over and shook the object in her hand at Her Majesty the Queen in front of the case, but her expression and tone were very cold: "Yan You gave me a pass jade card back then, and I can enter and leave this underworld at will. Now that Shangqi's underworld has changed hands, this doesn't count?"

Ji Lan looked away rather depressedly.How long has it been since I met this person... probably five or six hundred years.It is true that the distance has been too long, so that now I suddenly feel that the other party is somewhat different from the shadow in my memory.It's just... still annoying.

She snorted softly: "What are you doing here?"

"Come and see you." The person over there put his arms around his arms, and answered gracefully with a calm posture.When a certain queen was slightly astonished, she raised her eyebrows lightly, and then said: "Hey, what should I call you now, Ghost King... or His Highness Pluto?"

Hearing this, Ji Lan's face darkened immediately: "Don't dare, it's fine as before."

"Oh?" Lord Shenjun held his chin with one hand, pretending to be serious: "Well... indeed, it is more kind to call you Huaji."

"You!" Ji Lan stared beautifully.Yan You was nicknamed "Salt Oil" by this person when she was a child, and because her surname was Ji with a word "blue" after it, she had been calling her "Hua Ji Hua Ji" for many years... Now this dead face Dare to say it...

A certain queen finally couldn't bear it anymore, even the boredom of the past few months broke out all of a sudden, she gritted her teeth and said, "Are you here to find fault on purpose, or do you want to be taught a lesson by me like before?! How many years have passed? So mean, yet he still has a dead face all day long, just like a white crane that has been frozen stupid!"

"Oh." Qi Xiu sneered, and replied blankly: "I'm not as good as you. I don't know how many young talents I have harmed since I was a child. Now I still can't change my bad temper of flirting and flirting. It's like A crazy red flower."

"Bang!"

In the corner, the vase that a certain maid was wiping fell to the ground.Only then did the two realize that there were other people in the palace room, and turned their faces at the same time.

Xiao Xi shook his body, closed his mouth that had been opened wide due to excessive shock, and his face immediately turned pale.She originally wanted to quietly take advantage of the cleaning opportunity to take a few more glances at Shenjun, but she never expected to hear such an exciting conversation... Oh no, she won't be silenced~~

"Cough." At this time, Her Highness the Queen took the lead, raising her hand to lift the hair next to her ear, and regained her posture.The beautiful woman beside her looked sideways: "It's finally here, why don't you entertain me?"

"Hmph." Ji Lan rolled her eyes and suppressed her anger.Hongxiu flicked towards the door: "Hey, follow me to the back garden for a drink."

Seeing this, the little maid who was standing still finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat down slumped, and patted her chest to rejoice secretly.Qi Xiu on the side raised his eyebrows, gave her a playful look, and then stepped up to follow her lightly.

Walking into the backyard of the side hall, the first thing that catches the eye is the gorgeous manjusawa.

Qi Xiu stopped in front of the flower field, as if thinking of something, raised his hand and made a trick, took out a bouquet of white and purple flowers from the void, and handed it to the woman beside him: "Here, see you off."

Ji Lan was stunned for a moment, and then a gleam of light gradually appeared in her eyes: "This is... Iris Orchid?"

"Yeah." She nodded, with her hands behind her back, she casually looked at the field of flowers spreading far away, "At this time of year, the mountains behind my house are full of blooms, so I'll pick them here for you to have a look, so that you don't have to spend a lot of time looking at them." The sun can only look at these blood reds, and even people have become unclear."

Ji Lan took the bouquet of flowers angrily, but couldn't help but lowered her head and sniffed it lightly.The elegant fragrance floated into the nostrils, and suddenly aroused many memories.

Ziqiong Iris orchid blooms in June and loses in July.When they were young, the three of them would often secretly go to the mortal mountains to pick in the early morning of that season.Each held a bunch, and played back through the mist before the sun became dazzling.It was like this every year, until she and Yan You were taken to practice, and Qi Shou sealed the Yin Mountain...

Now it's June again... It turns out that time can pass so quickly without her.

The man in red slowly raised his lips, but his smile was weak: "Half a year has passed."

"Yeah, another half a year has passed." Qi Xiu followed with a soft sigh, and turned to look at her, with deep and incomprehensible emotions in his eyes: "How many more half a year like this do you have to go through before you are willing to let go?"

Ji Lan's eyes trembled, and she reprimanded coldly, "It's long-winded."

"Stubborn." Lord Shenjun replied, but suddenly changed his tone: "But...very cute." He said and walked towards the stone table in the distance, leaving behind the woman to stand there in a daze, with a dull expression.

... This dead face... was you praising me just now?Ji Lan looked at the slender and graceful back, wondering for a long time, and her beautiful eyebrows gradually frowned.

Why is there a... very strange feeling?Is it too long since I heard someone praise me? Well, it must be...
