The Road of the Queen

"There is only one line of poetry in the letter: Feathers fall into the turbid pool of the purple city, and Du Yu's voice sings gold in the court."

"Yu... Ting...?" This acrostic poem hides his own name.Yin Yuting read it out, feeling very puzzled while being shocked.

Liu Zihuan said: "This letter was written by the Taoist priest who touched the prince's bone back then. These two poems must be where the Taoist priest mentioned that person." His tone suddenly became ambiguous: "And that person... It's you."

"There is such a thing..." Yin Yuting has recovered from the shock, he knows that spells and spells are unfathomable, and sometimes they cannot be explained by common sense.Just like the Taoist priest Yinchen I met a few days ago, you can get a glimpse of his strange Taoism and his stubborn character.Nodding his head and thinking about it carefully, Yin Yuting immediately sensed that Liu Zihuan had something to say, and raised his head to look at the person opposite. As expected, the other person was looking at him sullenly, and the smile on his face also showed an indescribable severity.

The back of Yin Yuting's neck felt cold, but his complexion did not change, and he asked calmly: "Director Liu, did the Taoist priest say what role this person played in the prince's fate?"

Approving glances flashed in Liu Zihuan's eyes, thinking that Yin Yuting also understood that his life was tied to a Taoist priest who had told the prince's fortune more than ten years ago.Liu Zihuan shook his head and said with a smile, "I'm just in charge of inviting you here and telling you this story. Let the prince answer Yin Liulang's question himself."

Yin Yuting was stunned for a moment, feeling as if he had stepped into a net cast by others long ago.Now there is no other way but to take one step at a time.He had thought countless times about how he could join forces with King Cheng, and it seemed that this opportunity had miraculously arrived.

Liu Zihuan stood up and pulled Yin Yuting to the inner room.It turned out that there was a small door on the side of the inner room.After going out of the small gate, I walked into a small path, the winding path led to seclusion, and the vegetation gradually deepened.Not long after, the two came to Tingxue Pavilion, the residence of King Cheng.

The name of this pavilion is elegant, and the construction is even more elegant.Passing through the simple and generous front hall, a pool in the back garden is very eye-catching.The pool is so large that the reflections of the rockery surrounding it look real.There are several foxtails by the pond, and red dragonflies land on them.Sometimes a bit of water brushes past, and ripples like blue chains are drawn on the mirror-like pool water.

Liu Zihuan pointed to a waterside pavilion built next to the pond, and said with a smile: "The prince is there." Yin Yuting glanced at the waterside pavilion, and then turned around to ask something, but unexpectedly Liu Zihuan didn't smile, but looked at it meaningfully. There seemed to be some black things slowly spreading in his eyes.It can be seen that Yin Liulang's heart is filled with gloom.Liu Zihuan glanced at Yin Yuting, and then left without looking back.Yin Yuting walked towards the waterside pavilion by the pool in fear.

………………

It is said that Yin Liulang and Yin Yuting walked into the water pavilion by the pool in fear.

There is always a dampness in the house built by Linchi, and there is a faint smell of ambergris mixed in it.

Yin Yuting took a glance, and as expected, there was a golden toad incense cauldron on the table by the window, exhaling wisps of white smoke from its mouth.The smoke made the square room seem a lot more illusory, and everything was not so real.But Liu Zihuan was wrong, there was no one in the room, and King Cheng was not here.

Looking out of the window, I happened to see groups of red and white goldfish swimming in the pond.The bright red peach blossoms are blooming gorgeously, the branches are full of delicate and charming, and the falling petals are colorful, just like a very beautiful picture.

There was a soft knock at the door, Yin Yuting turned around and saw a tall young man standing in front of him.This young man was wearing a very gorgeous ink-colored rolled gold python robe, crown jade on his head, yellow Tao on his waist, and facing boots on his feet.As soon as Yin Yuting saw the young man's attire, he knew that King Cheng had arrived.

"Villain Yin Yuting, kowtow to His Royal Highness Cheng Wang." Yin Yuting quickly knelt down and saluted.

Cheng Wang Li Chunqiu glanced at the person kneeling in front of him, with no expression on his face.He bypassed Yin Yuting, who was kneeling in the middle, and sat back on the mahogany stool in the middle of the room. He put his right hand on the jade-faced table next to him and knocked out monotonous syllables with the suet jade wrench worn on his thumb.

The prince didn't speak, so Yin Yuting naturally didn't dare to show his air.The atmosphere stopped awkwardly in silence.Probably after inhaling enough of the ambergris, the prince finally spoke after half a stick of incense.The voice was unexpectedly deep and deep: "The person I have been looking for for so long is actually Yin Liulang."

Yin Yuting raised his head when he heard the words, and saw Li Chunqiu's deep eyes on his face.As far as the eye can see, this noble young man is surprisingly handsome.His face was perfectly shaped like a pendant, and his chin was even so sharp that it hurt his hands.The skin is as white as quenched jade, and a pair of colorful peach blossom eyes are flowing and shining, looking forward to amorous feelings.The bright red lips are very full, like a cherry on his lips.The corners of her lips were raised slightly, her smiling face was like the drizzle in early spring and February.

Yin Yuting was dumbfounded, and Li Chunqiu seemed a little surprised to see him.Both of them looked at each other's face for a while, Yin Yuting lowered his head first, and said respectfully: "Director Liu has already explained the whole story to the villain. The villain is very panicked."

I just heard Li Chunqiu say: "The Daoist asked me to wait a few more days in the letter, saying that you would come to me naturally. But..." He paused: "But I can't wait, so I took the liberty of leaving You invited me here. Didn't it scare you?"

In fact, Yin Liulang was frightened, but of course he couldn't say it.Yin Yuting still respectfully said: "What's the virtue and ability of the villain, thanks to the love of the prince." After saying this, he felt inappropriate, so he boldly raised his head to meet King Cheng's gaze, and asked in a deep voice: "But I don't know what role the villain plays in the fate of the prince in the opinion of the Taoist priest?"

Li Chunqiu was slightly taken aback, then a smile appeared on his plump lips, and he said softly: "Are you so afraid of me when we first meet?"

Yin Yuting said: "There are two types of functions, lucky star or disaster star. If the villain is unfortunately the disaster star hit by the prince, there is no reason not to be afraid now."

Li Chunqiu nodded: "Yin Liulang is indeed a sensible person. Regardless of whether you are a lucky star or a disaster star, I am still very happy to see you today."

Yin Yuting was relentless: "My lord, please make it clear."

Li Chunqiu nodded and closed his eyes, playing with the suet jade ring on his right thumb.His hands are very different from his face.His face was white and smooth, but his hands had protruding knuckles and rough skin, and he could see a pair of hands that often held weapons.When the subject changed, Li Chunqiu asked Yin Yuting instead: "If I wait patiently for a few days, will Yin Liulang really come to find me as the Taoist priest said?"

Yin Yuting said in a deep voice, "Yes."

Li Chunqiu asked: "Why did you come to find me?"

Yin Yuting said: "The villain is here to join the prince." He raised his head, his gaze was like a torch: "The villain is willing to be the prince's wife, and assist the prince to become a great treasure."

"Bold! The crown prince has not yet been registered, how dare you say such rebellious words!" The prince was angry, and slapped the mahogany table next to him, and the suet jade wrench on his thumb hit the table with a harsh high-pitched sound.

Yin Yuting was fearless, his eyes were as firm as a rock.He was giving it a go, and his wealth and life depended on these crucial words.

Hanging his eyebrows upside down and persevering for a few seconds, Li Chunqiu suddenly burst out laughing.Yin Yuting lowered his eyes, heaved a sigh of relief, and slowly relaxed the hand holding his cuff.You need to know the end, and I will break it down next time.
