Human dimension reduction

The next day, Jiu Tiao Wenzhen came to the palace again to meet the emperor, but this time he tactfully put forward his idea of ​​wanting to marry a wife. Although he didn't name her, the people around him could understand what he said.

There are several daughters under the emperor's knees, except for Prince Zhang Zinai, who were all raised by ordinary people. Obviously, they will not be the real target of Jiu Article. Looking like a young man, with his eyelids downcast and silent, it seems that he has made up his mind to resist passively.

The young and energetic general urged him with words unhurriedly. Fortunately, his etiquette was still in place. He lowered his head from the beginning to the end and did not look directly at the emperor's face, so he also missed the emperor's sight drifting aside.

In addition to the emperor and the general, there are other ministers in the room, not many in number. For various needs, there are also a few miscellaneous officials. The existence of these people has always been ignored by the dignitaries intentionally or unintentionally. There is no sense of disobedience in it.

The emperor was looking at him, with a hint of anger and eager questioning in his eyes.

The evil magician with a mask-like smile looked at the general with the cold gaze of a predator gazing at his prey. His gaze was sharper than a sharp blade for cutting bones and flesh. If it could be transformed into something tangible, this powerful general would I'm afraid it will turn into a puddle of minced meat now.

When Kujo Fumatsu was about to turn his head to look, Ashiya Michimi withdrew his gaze, and the hands in his sleeves made a cracking sound of intertwined bones, which was fleeting, and then he looked at the ground and nodded casually.

The emperor at the top breathed a sigh of relief almost imperceptibly, and his originally tense tone slowly loosened. Nine Articles Wenzhen took advantage of the victory and pursued it, and actually asked the emperor for a promise to marry Prince Zhang Zinai.

"However, Zhang Zi is my most beloved child. I am really reluctant to follow you to Edo so easily. It is better for you to stay in Kyoto for a while. The wedding is set in two months, right?"

In fact, two months is still a short time for the wedding ceremony of the inner prince, but it is too long for the emperor, who is eager for a further nine-article text, or the emperor who has long been unable to bear the current situation.

However, they still have the last shred of reason. The real wedding date between Prince Zhang Zinei and Jiu Tiaowen was finally set in a month and a half. Prince Nei's near-death condition.

When Jiutiaowen really fulfilled his wish and left swaggeringly, the emperor withdrew all the ministers and attendants with a sullen face, and was too lazy to care about those extra disguises. He leaned forward and stared fiercely at Ashiya Doman: "Within a month and a half, you can take over the shogunate. Return all the fortunes to the royal family?"

He used the word "return" in a self-deceiving manner, as if he could maintain the arrogance and dignity of "the line of ten thousand generations".

The warlock still had that smile on his face: "It won't take more than a month, but after this surgery is over, the situation of His Royal Highness Zhang Zi may be..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted eagerly by the emperor, and at the same time, an unnatural strangeness flashed across his face: "Don't worry about it, it's enough for her to live until now, you just need to do what you should do of."

——In fact, except for him and the foreign magician who was imprisoned behind the Qingliang Hall, no one knew that Zhang Zi had actually died once, and even the Emperor thought it was some kind of resurrection technique. The reason why he didn't kill this foreign warlock immediately to prevent leaks was that he hoped that this spell would help him gain a longer life one day.

"If this is the case, after this operation is completed, can Your Majesty marry His Royal Highness Zhang Zi to me?"

Warlock asked casually.

"Huh—?" The middle-aged man was caught off guard, "What?"

This sentence turned around in his mind, and he realized it belatedly, and said thoughtfully, "Well, you've been by Zhang Zi's side all this time..."

He didn't care why Ashiya Doman suddenly said that he wanted to marry Zhang Zi. It couldn't be because he fell in love with his sickly daughter, right?Do you want to use Zhang Zi to gain more power?Or is it because of what benefits Zhang Zi can bring him?

The Emperor thought so. Compared with the oppression brought by the nine articles, Ashiya Michimitsu, who was born in a poor family, is really not a threat. If he can exchange his dying daughter for a loyal one, he can do a lot of shame for him. It can be said that it is a very cost-effective deal.

The only problem is...

The Emperor frowned indistinctly, and looked at Ashiya Michimitsu below.

It is really a humble background that he can't bear. Such a person is also trying to get involved in the noble blood of the royal family. It can be seen how degraded the royal family is now. If it weren't for the Jiutiao family...

The emperor thought with a gloomy face, cursing the Jiujo family loudly in his heart, but anyway, after Zhang Zi became a monk, he would follow her husband and lose his status as the inner prince. If you think this way, it is not an insult to the royal family, and finally found a sense of balance. Forced a smile and nodded: "If Dao Manqing can help me successfully, such a reward is worth it."

A daughter sold two prices, and he didn't lose money looking left and right.

It was rare for Ashiya Michiman to bow down and salute sincerely, expressing his thanks to the Emperor.

Zhang Zi, who was far away in the bedroom, did not know that she had already settled on two husbands, and the speed of renewal was still based on months. She was holding the fox's fluffy head and reading "Ancient and Modern Collection" to it word by word. The Waka on the website, and a comment is added from time to time.

Abe Seimei listened patiently and calmly, as if he had taken an extra class. To be honest, the literary level of Prince Zhang Zinai was much higher than that of many nobles. Abe Seimei listened to the lecture with great relish, almost I forgot what I was here for.

Fortunately, he has not completely forgotten his purpose.

While Ashiya Michiman was leaving, the big fox half lying on the ground raised its ears and stared at Zhang Zi carefully. She exclaimed in surprise, closed the book, and showed a lively look that only young girls would have on her face: "Oops, I forgot to take care of Tian Congyun these days!"

God... what? !

The fox's ears stood up high in surprise, worried that Zhang Zi was still leaning on him, so he didn't act rashly, just watched quietly as the maid was ordered to bring a long and simple wooden box, opened the box and saw that there was lying in it. Wielding a long sword with a classic style.

Familiar with all kinds of ancient relics, the pupils of the Great Onmyoji, who knew the three famous artifacts like the palm of his hand, suddenly constricted.

Clouds in the sky!

How could the Sword of Clouds in the Sky, which was supposed to be enshrined in Atsuta Shrine, be in the hands of Prince Zhang Zinei?

As utensils bestowed by the gods, the three artifacts have the function of protecting the country's peace. The cloud in the sky is a sharp weapon to punish evil and avoid evil. Gouyu are blessings that bring well-being and peace. They enjoy a supreme and lofty status in this country. They have always been treasured in the shrine for worship and are not allowed to appear in front of people.

The emperor actually handed Tian Congyun to Prince Zhang Zinei?This behavior really exceeded Abe Seimei's expectations, and more importantly... the God-Stimulating Sword in front of him did not have the solemn and clear aura that a divine weapon should have. On the verge of collapse, the royal family's devout worship for thousands of years failed to make the artifact give birth to Fusangshen, on the contrary, it was about to break it——

No, it is not a question of ungodliness.

The fox's long and narrow eyes were wide open, and a pair of ears stood in the snow-white hair, staring fixedly at Tian Congyun.

In the eyes of the onmyoji, this ancient divine sword is surrounded by an extremely faint gray halo, and every time this halo comes into contact with Zhang Zi, it will lose a little bit, and turn into a familiar gray-black color, but It still undauntedly used the thin light on its body to dissolve the gray-black resentment on Zhang Zi's body, even though the halo surrounding the clouds in the sky has only a thin layer left, as if it will disappear in the next second Exhausted.

Tian Congyun, who has been enshrined by the royal family for many years, is working hard to protect this innocent girl. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Zhang Zi can survive the horror and resentment of the demons until now.

Abe Seimei narrowed his eyes, raised his front paws and scratched his fluffy ears, and when Zhang Zi was about to put Amacongyun back into the box, he pressed his soft chin on Amacongyun, together with the box. Beside Zhang Zi.

"Mr. Fox?" Prince Nei's hand was also buried by the fox's long fur, and she rubbed the fox's cheek in a good-tempered manner, "Look up, the box is under pressure, don't you panic? "

The big fox, as if he could speak human language, raised his chin and used his front paws to pull out the long square box. As for Tian Congyun, he was still pressed under his neck.

"Do you like Tiancongyun?" Zhang Zi lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "But this is bestowed by His Majesty..."

The fox pretended not to understand and shook his head, crackling his ears, lowered his head and acted coquettishly, and carefully arched Gong Zhangzi's side face with his strength.

"Hey hey..." Zhang Zi reluctantly accepted the big fox's coquettishness, and gently wrapped his hands around the fox's neck, letting the whispering fox stick to his face, smiling very tolerantly, "Okay Well, I don’t know why, but I can put it here for the time being, but be careful, even if you don’t have any achievements in actual combat, it’s still the first of the three legendary artifacts, so it’s not good if you get hurt.”

Abe Seimei, dressed in a fox shell, endured the shame of being coquettish to a young girl, while the target of being coquettish lowered his eyelids thoughtfully and glanced at the plain-looking clouds in the sky.

Abe Seimei did not let her take Amacongyun back because Amacongyun was useful for destroying Ashiya Michiman's plan?Or did he see something more?

Zhang Zi couldn't see these things like the onmyojis, so he could only guess vaguely in his heart.

As an inner prince who is "powerless", "innocent and innocent" and "knows nothing", after observing the behavior of Ashiya Michimitsu and Abe Seimei, he can still deduce how he should act. Follow Abe Seimei to save his life , along the Ashiya Road, you can get in touch with the deep plot...

Best of both worlds.

If Zhang Zi's current vitality is realized into a numerical value, it will be a layer of dangerous blood skin that is shining red all the time. She will not refuse any method that can restore blood, so after seeing the fox stop her from taking Tian Congyun back , she kindly kept the artifact by her side.

A soft-hearted inner prince who loves the fox shikigami... One can't help but think, is it because of her nature that she loves it so much, or because it belongs to Ashiya Michimitsu's shikigami?

Smart people are always willing to think too much, dismantling every detail and thinking about its meaning, Zhang Zi is always so innocent, and Ashiya Michimitsu is the "smart person" who often thinks too much among them.

Think a little more, take the initiative a little more, as the leader of the relationship between the two, how could he give up such a fragile Zhang Zi to bother?

If the selfish and cold Ashiya Michiman can admit that he wants to marry Akiko, then this trap has caught the biggest prey.

The palace soon spread the news that Prince Zhang Zinai was going to marry the general. After Ashiya Michiman returned, he kept secret about another promise made by the emperor. He calmly nodded to Zhang Zi who came to confirm the truth of the news: " His Majesty did allow the general's proposal."

With secret and distorted happiness, he watched Zhang Zi trying to hide the disappointment in his eyes when he looked at him, and repeatedly used this method to confirm Zhang Zi's liking for him, as if the only way to make him feel at ease.

But this kind of solitary happiness didn't last long. The next day, Zhang Zi showed him a dignified smile, and even the address returned to the alienation when they first met: "Master Daoman, I think, as the general's fiancée, maybe we don't know each other. It should be so close."

Ashiya Michi, who was silently hinted to leave, had a stiff smile on his face, and the fox licking its tail looked at him with pity.

He wants to explain that you won't marry him, Kutiao Wenzhen will die soon, and the emperor agrees that you will marry me later...

But he couldn't say it out loud.

Ashiya Michimitsu showed an ugly smile: "Your Majesty told me to stay by Zhang Zi's side..."

Zhang Zi opened his clear eyes and insisted: "Then please call me Prince Zhang Zinei, or Your Highness."

There was no smile in Warlock's dark eyes, coupled with this fixed smile, it looked a little scary, but Zhang Zi was obviously not someone who would be afraid of him, the two looked at each other for a moment, Ashiya Michimitsu still obeyed her wish, Slowly said: "In this case... Please wait patiently for a few more days, Your Highness Zhang Zi."

There was something twisted and hideous in the arc of his mouth: "He won't care about our relationship... soon, I promise."

The end of his words was almost a whisper, and the keen-hearing fox turned his ears and narrowed his eyes keenly.
