The Road to Peach Blossoms

King Xiaoyao lowered his head, his expression froze, and he paused for a while, so he continued: "The newly-appointed side-by-side king... It's also a coincidence that when the new Dragon Emperor received us that day, he happened to meet the one who entered the palace. That person is extremely beautiful, graceful and noble, but also wicked. According to rumors, King Qi of Xuanwu Kingdom is the most beautiful woman in the world. According to my younger brother, he is no more than this. Moreover, the new Dragon Emperor is very I trust him, it is said that this is the one behind the scenes who helped the fifth prince to rise to the top."

The regent said lightly: "You think highly of him. Is there any more?"

Happy King: "No more."

The regent beckoned to behind the curtain, where an eunuch presented a scroll with both hands respectfully, he held the center of the scroll and flicked it lightly, the scroll unfolded with a bang, revealing the person on the portrait , there is another poem above:

There are beautiful people in the north, peerless and independent.

Regardless of the city, consider the country.

Ning doesn't know that the country and the city are beautiful, no matter how rare a beautiful woman is.

Ximen Hao showed a shocked expression, and lost his voice for a moment: "This, this..."

The regent's smile was half a smile: "Eighth brother, tell me, which one is more beautiful to draw this, the King Qi I told you about, or this young man who fell from the sky beside you?"

"No, it's impossible..." Ximen Hao shook his head subconsciously and denied, "Brother Huang, it's a coincidence, they can't be the same person, let's not say that the Wang Qingfa and green eyes who stood shoulder to shoulder belonged to the authentic royal family, that's right. Their ages are not all the same. Calculated according to age, that King Qi should have just turned seventeen this year. We all know that. The offspring of Princess Qinghua and King Qi attracted worldwide attention when they were born, and that The side-by-side king of Qinglong Kingdom, according to his historical records, he should be twenty-seven years old, and..."

"You mean, do the three of them look alike?" The regent interrupted Ximenhao, and said casually, "Okay, I didn't ask you to analyze whether the three of them are the same person. You have worked hard this trip, and After successfully completing the task, you should be able to be happy for a while. This king doesn’t care about you, but when you go back, look at Ling’er (accented accent)…your worry-free niece is fine.”

Ximen Hao nodded, took my hand again, and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute—"

When we turned around, we heard that person's indifferent but unquestionable voice from behind and above, "Eighth brother, did this king let you go, did you take him away?"

Ximen Hao stiffened for a moment, and slowly turned around.

"My lord heard that your name is Gu Yue. It just so happens that my lord is in a good mood, so I ordered someone to bring your little friend here. It's good for you to play in this palace." The man opened his lips and crossed his hands against his chin. , "Qiming, please come up, Miss Ruohan, the two little friends are brothers and sisters, how should they share the glory and wealth, don't you think so, huh?"

The eunuch with lowered eyebrows and downright face agreed, and "invited" the man named Ruohan as he said.

The girl was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a delicate appearance, wearing a fresh and playful double-moon bun, wearing a half-length emerald green dress, white trousers, and lotus-colored embroidered shoes.

She looked timid, she didn't dare to look up, she just twisted her hands together.

"look up--"

The regent's majestic order sounded, and the girl raised her head in surprise, revealing a pair of deer-like wet black eyes.

I was puzzled at first, but when I saw her familiar eyes, I suddenly realized that this was——

"Ya Ya." I said affirmatively.

"...Yeah." The girl with a new look didn't dare to look at me, but she shook her head and took three steps back even though she said yes.

"Retire for what?" The regent said indifferently, "You are the first good friend he made here, and now you have met him cleanly, why is this reaction?"

"No." Ximen Hao took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Brother Huang, this child was picked up by my younger brother. He lives on the street and is chased and beaten. I'm afraid he has a wild temper and is not easy to discipline. He looks like that boy." It may be just a coincidence that the position is similar. My brother boldly begs, it's better not to stay with the emperor's side and offend you."

"Eighth brother, you are not afraid of him bumping into you, so I am not afraid either." The regent smiled, his lips paler, "Besides, I heard that the first thing he did when he entered Xiaoyao Mansion , just slept on your Xiaoyao Wang's bed, I'm afraid it's very beautiful and delicious."

"You...!" Ximen Hao's complexion changed, and he looked up at the regent.

"So what?" The regent lowered his eyes and looked at him indifferently, "This king has planted eyeliner in your palace. This king knows everything in this world, including yours."

"You will die early!" Ximen Hao couldn't help clenching his fists, the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, and he said through gritted teeth, "A person like you who has to do everything by himself and meddles in trivial matters... will not live long!"

"My eighth brother, how can it be a trivial matter?" The regent's eyes were cold, and he didn't care about what he said. "Also, it's not up to you whether the king dies early or not."

"Qiming, send Xiaoyao Wang back to the mansion, and put him under house arrest for three months—"

"Ugh!" Ximen Hao endured, with bloodshot eyes appearing in his eyes, when he looked down at me, he couldn't help but wet his eyes. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xiaoyue'er, I still can't keep you..."

I looked at the heartbroken Xiaoyao Wang ignorantly, and was very puzzled by his state, but I still stepped forward and hugged him gently: "Don't cry, Brother Hao, you still look good when you smile... "

"I'll give you back what you said to me now." I raised my head and said earnestly, then stood on tiptoe and kissed his smooth chin, "When you miss me, come to see me in the palace I believe that you are the prince, it is very easy to enter the palace~"

I smiled mischievously, and felt Ximen Hao's body tremble slightly, and a desperate cry came from his throat, a tear finally fell down his cheek.

"This king can't bear you, I can't bear to..."

Finally, the regent couldn't understand the farce of farewell, so he gave a low drink——

"enough!"

"Gu Yue, come here—" the regent looked at me, and slowly opened his wide sleeves, with a smile on his lips, coaxing, "Don't be afraid, it's better here, with your little friend Ruohan, and you Ling'er who is about the same age as you; although Ling'er is stubborn, she will restrain her temper when she meets someone as beautiful and cute as you; even, all the men and women who are about the same age as you in the White Tiger Kingdom are called into the palace by this king In, they can all play with you..."

"Besides, if you don't come, I assure you, in just a few days, life will not be easy for your Brother Hao and your friends."

"He'll be homeless like you, on the streets."

I heard that, and firmly pushed Ximen Hao away, and walked towards the regent with small steps.When the regent took me into his arms, I leaned against his chest covered by the thick placket, and in a daze, I smelled a cold fragrance mixed with a faint medicinal smell.

He gently stroked my face with his cool fingers, and murmured: "You are like... a beggar, and this king will never believe it. You appeared out of nowhere, and your identity is suspicious. This king will never allow it Unknown events have appeared, so you just stay by my king's side, obediently, this king promises you everything you want..."

"However, you have to give what this king wants, otherwise..."

"The king wants you to look good."
