Side of the Jade Throne

Chapter 22 Welcome to the Lord

Lieqi looked at Zhenye with a rare sense of shock and bewilderment in his eyes, while Zhenye stared at him closely, even with undisguised ferocity in his black eyes, like a cub who had lost its shelter and stood up all over his body. Stab at the enemy.

"Princess, please don't treat Lieqi like this!" Zheng Yin appeared from the shadow of Lieqi, trying to stop Zhenye.

Zhenye was unmoved, and still stared at Yuqi, who frowned slightly, and replied obediently: "The Lord abdicated, and the body is still in Pengshan."

Zhenye let go of her hand suddenly, as if she finally believed that her father who loved her would never come back, she retracted her hand in a daze, and turned around, not knowing where to go...

Lieqi's eyes followed Zhenye's back, and said: "Kangui, protect her."

When Ling Guangui heard the words, he went after Zhenye in stealth, and Zhengyin looked at Lieqi worriedly: "Why didn't you just..."

"Wait a little longer." Lieqi interrupted her, "Wait until she regains her composure." Zhenye at this moment has no sense at all.

When Lueqi saw Zhenye again the next day, she had already changed into a white dress, standing alone in the wind, staring into the distance, probably thinking about her father.

Lieqi didn't ask Kangui what Zhenye experienced that night, he could imagine that there was absolutely no joy in it.After only one night, Zhenye had calmed down, and seemed to calmly accept the fact that the king had passed away.

At this time, Zhenye also noticed the arrival of Yuqi, his eyes met with Yuqi, and he was speechless for a moment.

Compared with that meeting in Baigui Palace, her face is much more haggard, and her ever bright black eyes are covered with a hazy mist.

"Zhenye."

"Father passed away, I am no longer a princess, and Taifu doesn't have to treat me so politely against my will in the future." Zhenye said softly, the death of Prince Yi seemed to have drained her strength, and even her voice was a bit tingly. Very dejected and trembling, faintly laughing at himself.

Zhenye thinks that she and Lieqi grew up together, and it is not without affection, but those affections always seem to be invisible, only when the words are sarcastic, it seems like yesterday.But he is still famous, and she is no longer a princess, just like her father's death, there is no going back.

"I'm afraid..." Lieqi stepped forward slowly, leaning down under Zhenye's dark eyes, "It's not possible."

Zhenye looked at Yiqi kneeling at his feet in shock, and heard Qilin's oath for the second time.

"Follow the destiny, welcome the Lord, never leave the imperial court, never disobey the imperial edict, and swear to be loyal!"

After a moment of surprise, Zhenye did not show the slightest expression of excitement and glory, her face was extremely cold, and she sneered after a while: "It really is so!"

She said to Yiqi, who was prostrating in front of her: "Father's abdication must mean that you have reached the final stage of losing your way. In this case, you will have lost your way by the time of the national celebration, but you never confided to me at all." ,turn out to be……

Zhenye's voice suddenly raised a bit: "At that time, you already felt the royal air in me, right?"

"Yes." Lieutenant replied.

Zhenye's lowered voice was still sneering, "Oh, maybe earlier, you knew about it before I went to Penglai, so you tricked me into using the meteor sundial to turn me into a baby and sent me to Penglai...that's all the truth ! Isn’t it?” Her laugh was cold and shrill, and she almost guessed all the secrets at once, making Lieqi momentarily at a loss for words.

"Answer me yes!?"

"Yes."

"I forgive." After a pause, Zhenye said, and as soon as the voice fell, the oath was fulfilled.

Lieqi raised his head in surprise, and saw Zhenye held his head up, with a teardrop hanging on his cheek.

He thought she would refuse, but at the same time as she promised, he seemed to see the fate of never forgiving.

On the second day after the first generation of King Lian, the white pheasant made two calls, Lianqi found the new king.

Unlike her father, who was full of pride and joy when he became king, Zhenye was neither sad nor happy, nor moved when facing the congratulations of the fairies.

At that time, she was well-behaved and lively, and she loved hearing others praise her father the most.Every time I hear it, I look proud and happy.She is very curious about everything about Pengshan, and she is also very curious about Lieqi. She takes the initiative to talk to the fairies to find out Lieqi's temperament...

What about now?Zhenye is obviously not half happy about becoming a king. She always scans the places where she and Xuan Kuo left traces from time to time, looking for the traces of her deceased father, thinking about those laughing sounds.

The female fairy Minglan is one of the fairies who took care of Yuqi and grew up. Although Yuqi's personality has always been cold and hard, she always feels a little bit distressed when she takes care of the older Qilin. While breathing a sigh of relief, he was also a little worried about Shun. Fortunately, Yuqi found the new king the next day, which can be said to be the greatest of misfortunes.

It's just that the newly appointed His Majesty the King Lie is even more taciturn than Lieqi.After serving for a few days, but she didn't even know her name, Ming Lan couldn't help but feel worried.Speaking of which, among the previous Pengshan Dukes in Pengshan, Lieqi is notoriously stern. Thanks to the kindness and goodness of the previous generation, King Lieqi is a good ruler and minister, but now this...

Ming Lan couldn't help sighing.

The female fairies were also talking about the new king of the Shun Kingdom, and they always felt that he was really difficult to get along with compared to the modern king.

In this regard, Lu Qi is aware of some.It's just that he thinks that Zhenye will probably need some time to recover from the death of the former king, and he will walk with her there.

Since the death of King Yu, Zhenye has been in a trance from time to time, whether she became king or accepted the destiny, until she returned to Shun on Xuanwu, she found some truth in the wind.

She remembered that 54 years ago, in such a strong wind, on the back of Xuanwu, she sat beside her father and listened to her father and Yuqi talk about the Shun Kingdom. The father is on his lap...

She seems to be walking the road of her father in another capacity, but she is the only one left, retreating and disappearing. In front of her is the Changxia Palace without her father.

More than ten thousand people, but can no longer smile.
