C27 A Stone Door with a Mechanism
Of course, only the person involved could complain, and no one could believe that the gentle little bunny in front of them would turn into a Big Wild Wolf in the dark of the night.
Hua Wuyang did not care about Queen of Flower Country's objection at that time and insisted on marrying Yu Xiaobai as Imperial Husband. Moreover, she never took in a harem. This action was a good story among the people of Flower Country. It was said that the dissolute princess of Flower Country had finally settled down. This way, the men in the world would be safe.
These words were like a disaster that had been wiped out and the entire country was celebrating. Hua Wuyang also gave birth to a few princes after the wedding. For a female country, men were not popular. With the principle of not abandoning, not giving up, and not giving up on giving birth to a woman, Hua Wuyang finally got a woman in one fell swoop. Hence, the entire Flower Country celebrated. Finally, there was an heir to the Flower Country.
However, good times did not last long. Because the Flower Country was a female country, the strength of the few countries was not that strong. There must be an alliance of countries, and Cloud Country was a good choice.
However, the emperor of Cloud Country, Yun Cangqiong, had once met Hua Wuyang when he was on a private visit. At that time, he had a good impression of Hua Wuyang. Unfortunately, he had no feelings for ___.
After Hua Wuyang's identity was exposed, Yun Cangqiong also knew that it was impossible for him and Hua Wuyang. Hence, when Hua Wuyang proposed an alliance, Yun Cangqiong raised a condition. That was, Hua Wuyang's daughter must be sent to Cloud Country as a hostage after she was five years old. When Hua Wuyang's daughter turned sixteen years old, only then could he return to Flower Country.
In fact, Yun Cangqiong just wanted to use this to commemorate his lost love. This was the reason why Hua Moyu had to enter the Palace regularly. And when Hua Moyu was in the main hall, she felt that Yun Cangqiong's gentleness was not an illusion. It was just a certain someone looking at something and thinking about it.
Hua Moyu only heard that gentle voice that was like jade. She raised her eyes and looked over. She felt as if she could see the bottom of the clear and pure spring in front of her eyes. There was a faint scholarly air on her fair and delicate face. His smiling face revealed deep affection for him. It was not a relationship between children. It was a relationship that was constantly severed. Black hair hung loosely behind his head, only the hair on his temples were tied up in a white jade crown.
He wore a long silver robe that had a similar color to his own, but it was decorated with dark cyan cloud-like flowers. A black and golden belt was tied around his waist. In the middle, there was an obsidian that was surrounded by a golden diamond that was emitting a mysterious radiance.
The man in front of him was actually his older brother? Jinghong? Hua Jinghong, was that his name?
Before Hua Moyu could finish looking carefully, she heard Yun Cangqiong on the dragon throne say with a meaningful smile, "It is really hard on us Queen of Flower Country to use our son to exchange for our daughter. Interesting, if Zhen does not allow it, then wouldn't it be unreasonable? Then let's exchange according to the First Prince!"
For a moment, Hua Moyu did not know what words she should use to describe her feelings. Excitement? To return to her hometown? But the man in front of him, no! He should be his own brother. He wanted to take his place here.
He wanted to say something, but was stopped by a certain gaze. That was Hua Jinghong's gentle warning. Don't say anything. Just listen obediently. You want to convey this message, right?
All the civil and military officials in the court could feel the low pressure, and no one dared to speak. At this moment, Yun Mengxiu, who had always been good at admonitions, spoke. "Father, this son can act as an ambassador to escort the eldest princess back to Flower Country. If Father still feels worried. Anyway, the border is safe now, why don't we let the fourth brother come along? This way, the safety would be more guaranteed. Father, what do you think?"
Just as Yun Mengxiu finished speaking, Yun Heyan immediately stepped out and bowed. "Father, this son is willing to go with you. When the time comes, I will definitely bring the princess back safely."
Yun Cangqiong did not expect that his two sons would take the initiative to volunteer, but it also helped to ease the unhappiness in his heart. No one knew that there was an even bigger conspiracy that was going to be carried out on Hua Moyu, so Hua Moyu must be safely brought back.
The dragon face sank, and then announced in a low voice, "I approve of Second Prince's advice. Tomorrow at the morning, Zhen will personally perform the ceremony for the Grand Princess. I hope that the Princess will go back early and not forget her responsibility."
Hua Moyu heard this and quickly kowtowed. "Moyu will remember her responsibilities. After visiting, you must return as soon as possible. Thank you, Lord, for your graciousness! "
Yun Cangqiong nodded slightly and gave a look to the eunuch beside him. "The Emperor will withdraw from the court!"
Everyone immediately knelt down and saluted, "Long live the Emperor!"
Hua Moyu only felt cold sweat all over her body. It was different after experiencing it personally. It was too shocking. She still had to take one step at a time. If she was even a little careless, her little life would be lost.
There were three men following behind her. Needless to say, she knew who they were. Hua Jinghong had already received Yun Cangqiong's Imperial Decree. Naturally, he wanted to follow Hua Moyu back to jasmine garden. However, why were there two more tails behind him?
"You two, do you still want to spar with my family's guards? We'll be on our way tomorrow, so let's go back to the palace and pack up. Moyu wants to reminisce about old times with her family, I am afraid it is not convenient for the two of you?" Hua Moyu was now very clear about her position. Outsiders and their own people must be clearly distinguished.
When Yun Heyan heard this, he almost exploded in anger. "Little Hua, what do you mean? If it wasn't for Liu today, do you think you would have passed so easily?"
Yun Mengxiu pulled Yun Heyan's sleeve and said, "Alright, Ling. What Littleflower said was also human nature. They would have to travel together tomorrow anyway. I don't care about this short period of time. "
After that, he looked at Hua Moyu with a thoughtful look. "Little Hua, consider today's matter as you owing me a favor. In the future, I will definitely ask you to pay me back. You better have a plan. " The faint warning in his words was self-evident.
Those who understood nodded slightly as an answer. Then, she raised her appropriate smile and said, "Then Moyu will take her leave."
Hua Jinghong remained calm and did not say anything. Before he left, he even bowed slightly to Yun Mengxiu and said, "Second Prince, thank you for today's matter. If there is a chance in the future, I will also repay you."
However, Yun Mengxiu shook his head and refused, "Brother Jinghong, I am helping Xiaohua. So, there was no need for Brother Jinghong to repay him. In the future, I might need Brother Jinghong's help somewhere. When the time comes, I ask Brother Jinghong to help me say a few words."
This was to set up a trap for his future brother-in-law, but the latter still nodded and agreed. It was just that the person who agreed thought that it was just a joke, but did not know that in the future, Hua Moyu would almost not recognize this brother because of this. Of course, he would leave the words for later on.
Qing Yan was waiting outside the hall as if she was sitting on pins and needles. When she saw Hua Moyu walking over, she almost kowtowed to thank the heavens for blessing. But later on, Qing Yan indeed did not kowtow but bowed. Because of Hua Jinghong, who was behind Hua Moyu.
"Qing Yan greets the First Prince. The First Prince is in luck!"
"No need for formalities, Qing Yan. It was all thanks to you taking care of Moyu and protecting her all these years. This is not the place to talk. Let's talk after we return to jasmine garden."
When Hua Moyu and Hua Jinghong returned to jasmine garden, Leng Xiyou also returned from the outside. When he saw Hua Moyu's attire, he almost popped his eyes out. However, when he saw Hua Jinghong, he understood what was going on.
"I was wondering how could I let Moyu leave Cloud Country so easily. It turns out that I wanted you to stay here for the time being." Leng Xiyou had guessed the truth of the matter almost immediately.
"Xiyou, I have to say that your reasoning ability is quite good. In the future, if you don't become a bodyguard, you can open a detective agency. Specially investigate bizarre cases! " Hua Moyu teased Leng Xiyou, whose face had turned black.
"Moyu, don't always say things that I don't understand. But I know what you are saying is definitely not something good. Just look at your expression and you will know." Leng Xiyou curled his lips. Seeing that someone's elder brother was present, it was not good to teach this little girl a lesson. Let's see if we can find a chance to make it up to her in the future.
Hua Moyu suddenly felt that her future was bleak, but she thought about it again. Anyway, I still have a few men by my side in the future. This person might not take advantage of me in front of a few men. Thus, she was even more fearless.
"Moyu, I didn't expect you to grow so much. Big Brother also felt very gratified when he saw your performance today. In the future, the Flower Country will depend on you." Hua Jinghong's impression of his sister was still last year, the smiling little girl. He didn't expect that the little girl had already grown up today. He felt as if he had shed his previous innocence and quietly bloomed.
Speaking of which, why did this brother think so? Could it be that the difference between the past and the present was so great that he couldn't tell? Sigh, it could only be said that in Hua Jinghong's eyes, Hua Moyu was his most beloved younger sister. Furthermore, they only met once a year, and it was not like they could meet each other every day. He definitely would not discover Hua Moyu's change.
Leng Xiyou and Qing Yan tacitly chose to ignore it because the current Hua Moyu was quite good. She would no longer be bullied foolishly and would understand the principle of retreating and retreating.
Then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she approached Hua Moyu. Rubbing away the bangs on her forehead, she revealed a pained expression and said, "Big Brother forgot that Moyu was injured a few days ago. Do I need to wear a ribbon when I go out now? You need to find a doctor to treat Windward's headache. I was unable to examine it carefully in the hall just now. Come, brother will help you remove the ribbon. Take a look at Moyu's injury."
Hua Moyu patted Hua Jinghong's big hand comfortingly, "Big brother, that's my, Hu Zou's. It's already healed. There's a Godly Doctor in our mansion. This is a protective talisman given to me by the Godly Doctor. He's afraid that I'll be bullied again. Isn't that fine?! Brother, don't worry. My small body is quite durable."
Leng Xiyou almost said that a few days ago, someone was drenched in the rain and almost caught a cold. Qing Yan also wanted to say something but stopped herself in the end and did not say anything.
"Moyu, you go back to your room to rest first. I have something to say to Mr Leng." Hua Jinghong knew that there were some things that Leng Xiyou definitely did not know, so he had to give Leng Xiyou a proper explanation. This time, he had come with the intention of sacrificing himself. No matter what, he had to get his little sister out of this cage.
Hua Moyu tactfully led Qing Yan away and there were only two men left in the hall. Leng Xiyou looked around and whispered a few words to Hua Jinghong. The two of them walked out of the hall and in the blink of an eye, they arrived behind a fake mountain.
Leng Xiyou clapped his hands and two black shadows suddenly appeared. Leng Xiyou ordered in a deep voice, "The two of you stay here and guard this place. Don't let anyone get close, but don't show yourself. Stay in the dark and guard this place. Do you understand? "
The two men in black said in unison, "Understood, Sect Master!" After saying that, the black shadow disappeared in an instant.
The gentleness on Hua Jinghong's face suddenly changed, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Mr Leng is really dignified as the Sect Master. He is indeed well-trained. Moyu is also considered lucky."
Leng Xiyou did not pay attention to the sarcasm in his words. He threw a palm at a certain spot of the fake mountain. In an instant, a small door opened on the fake mountain. Of course, it was a stone door with a mechanism.
"You must have put a lot of effort in pretending just now. You clearly want to have fun. You even deliberately put on the appearance of a good older brother in front of Moyu. It's all thanks to that skin image of yours." Taking the lead to walk into the fake mountain, Hua Jinghong raised his eyebrows and quickly followed.
"Aiya, nothing can be hidden from our Cold Gate Master. My little sister's character was really like a different person. If it wasn't for the fact that she had carefully seen that there was indeed no disguise on the human skin mask, I really can't believe that Wailing Ghost actually became so calm and composed. Could it really be as my Queen Mother said, that the real little sister has returned? "
