Chapter 35 – The Woman in the Mountain Residence and the Emperor’s Heart

The Emperor of Northern Qi personally attended the Four Gu Swords’ Sword Lodge Opening Ceremony!

Although this would certainly be the last time the Four Gu Swords would appear in the world, the Grand Master’s status was honored, and this opening of the hut would determine the future ownership of Dong Yi City, which was extremely important to Northern Qi, it was still a very shocking thing that the Emperor of Northern Qi, in the position of the Emperor, would condescend to come.

Except for Fan Xian who had already guessed it.

He squinted his eyes behind the curtains, looking through the layers of gauze at the young but extremely sophisticated young Emperor of Northern Qi. He knew that Northern Qi would definitely take the death of the Four Gu Swords extremely seriously, especially in the current situation where Southern Qing was powerful, and the Northern Qi people would definitely need to make a stronger response if they wanted to turn the tide.

The fact that the Emperor of Northern Qi personally came to convince the Four Gu Swords represented the absolute sincerity of Northern Qi. An emperor who was far away from his own capital and quietly came to a foreign country did not know how many risks he had to take. This move was simply too bold, and even though Fan Xian had guessed the young Emperor of Northern Qi’s offbeat move as early as Yanjing City, it was still hard to suppress his shock and admiration when he saw the young Emperor appear on the side of the Sword Lodge with his own eyes.

Sword Lodge mountain courtyard a secluded, outside I do not know how many hidden North Qi court experts as well as the sword Lodge side of the defense force, however, it seems that no one thought, in the center of the defense, the most worrying North Qi people South Qing Fan Xian, has quietly touched in, away from their emperor his majesty, only a few steps away.

With Fan Xian’s strength, if he took a risk, he might really be able to capture the young Emperor of Northern Qi in the front room in his hands, but the problem was, even if he was able to restrain the young Emperor of Northern Qi, what problem could he solve? What’s more, he had long been sensitive to the fact that there were an unknown number of experts lurking in the entire mountain courtyard, and outside of this secluded room, there was even a powerful figure slowly walking over.

The sound of footsteps stopped outside the room. Fan Xian lowered his head and frowned as he carefully sensed, but he was never able to grasp the rhythm of the other party’s breathing, and from this one detail, he was certain that the visitor was an expert no less than himself, and even more pure and natural than himself in terms of the control of his inner strength.

Other than the martial arts teacher of the young Emperor of Northern Qi, Lord Wolf Peach, the first disciple under the Heavenly Dao Sect, who else could be in this realm?

After waking up the tent, Fan Xian’s eyes twitched twice, and his grip on Si Li Li’s hand subconsciously tightened. He suddenly felt that his situation was a bit ridiculous, his plan today was too impulsive, the Emperor of Northern Qi, if the fish and dragon submerged in his clothes and came to Eastern Yi, he would definitely carry an extremely terrifying defense force beside him, where it was possible for everything to go well with his mood-perhaps it was because he was in possession of the vitals of the young Emperor of Northern Qi that he acted in such a way as to appear insane.

If Wolf Peach had walked into the room at this moment, he would have easily detected Si Li Li’s breathing, thus letting that eunuch’s speculation fall to the wayside, and then he would have realized Fan Xian’s presence.

He turned his head and glanced at Si Li Li, his eyes full of temptation and inquiry. Where did Si Li Li not know what was in the heart of this ingrate, her eyes turned slightly, emitting a ghostly light, and she glared at him in an extremely angry manner.

At this time, the little emperor of Beiqi is still resting outside, if he knows that his favorite consort is with that most hateful little white boy, in less than ten steps away from himself, his eyes are passing love, so not blazing …… only afraid that he will be angry and spit out blood, the top of his head green light.

Fan Xian laughed silently, the corners of his lips pursed slightly, his eyes blinked, full of begging color. Si Li Li looked at the man hopelessly, not knowing how many thoughts turned in his mind, his fingertips nervously tangled for half a day, and finally couldn’t help but soften his heart, agreeing to the pleading meaning in his eyes, and sighed quietly.

At this time, the little emperor of Beiqi was tightly locking his brows, thinking about something, wolf peach was walking to the outside of the room, to report something, the Beiqi side all thought that Li Guifei was roaming in the garden at this time, the house should be quiet, but they didn’t want to suddenly the house resounded with a sigh.

Fan Xian’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

Outside, the tightly locked brows of the young Emperor of Northern Qi suddenly dispersed, and his eyes opened as he calmly looked behind the curtain.

Wolf Peach’s figure stayed outside the room, his figure reflected on the door.

Si Li Li tied her jacket while walking out from behind the curtain, her flowing cloudy hair bun slightly disheveled, her delicate face slightly red, her pair of talking eyes slightly flustered, as if she had just done something unseemly.

Beiqi little emperor eyes cold aura flash, coldly said: ”So you are here. Earlier when the eunuch said you were in the garden, why didn’t you squeak?”

Si Li Li, on the contrary, was not as joyful and fearful as she was towards Fan Xian, and after smiling exceptionally naturally, she sat down in front of the dressing table, organized her makeup and hair once again in front of the large mirror, and casually said, “There are times when I where I dare to squeak?”

Fan Xian who hid behind the curtain thumped in his heart, not knowing if he had taken the right risk or not, and whether Si Li Li was really like what he imagined, this sentence with a pun, stabbing him a little numb.

Beiqi little emperor sneered, stood up, walked behind Si Li Li said: “Is not doing what unseemly things, do not dare to let me know?”

At these words, Fan Xian, who was hiding in the back, couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. Unexpectedly immediately afterward, Si Li Li turned back, blankly glanced at the little emperor, and said extremely softly, “Who let you just come in like this, I’m at the back …… of course I can’t see anyone. Could it be that you are ready to let others come to see me ……?”

At least two words were omitted from this sentence. Fan Xian looked at the painted gold toilet beside him, and immediately knew what Si Li Li said, and could not help but feel a slight sense of awe in his heart, secretly thinking that this female spy of that year really had quite a few skills to deal with chaos.

Beiqi little emperor suddenly laughed, looking at the beautiful face of Si Li Li, his heart moved, leaned down, pecked on top of her red lips, said vaguely: “I can not afford to let the bright moon on your body to the bystanders to see.”

This kiss is overbearing to the extreme, the two lips and teeth, sucking for a long time, until Si Li Li some panting, the little emperor only a little reluctant to spit out her tongue, that the handsome face, suddenly appeared a few points of the color of lust.

Watching this scene, behind the curtain Fan Xian’s face couldn’t help but look strange, fortunately his mind was firm enough to control his breathing and heartbeat frequency, and didn’t let the wolf peaches outside the room notice. But when he saw the little Emperor of Northern Qi put his hand into Si Li Li’s lapel, holding that mass of softness and rubbing it ceaselessly, he finally couldn’t help but change his face, his eyes staring wide, refusing to let go of this shot even for a moment.

After a long time, this scene of living color ended, especially because it contained some kind of foreign interest, it was enough to make Fan Xian reminisce for a good while.

Not knowing what Wolf Peach whispered outside the room, the lustful color on the face of the young Emperor of Beiqi was gone, and he bent his head down and mumbled a few words in Si Li Li’s ear, his face full of annoyance. Tidying up his messy clothes, he walked out of the house.

It was only after confirming the safety of the mountain residence that Fan Xian dashed out, staring at Si Li Li’s delicate reddish-tinged face, a wry smile spreading at the corners of his lips.

Si Li Li glared at him without any good humor and said, “What are you smiling about?”

“After watching a scene of a living spring palace, is it not possible to laugh a little?” Fan Xian sat down beside her.

“Little Lord Fan, what exactly are you doing here?” Si Li Li stared into his eyes and said softly, “It’s not just to watch me and His Majesty make out, is it?” With these words, for some reason, a hint of shyness appeared on this Northern Qi Noble Consort’s face.

Fan Xian very keenly captured this, and with a twitch in his heart, he smiled and said, “Originally, I wanted to talk about something privately with your majesty, but I didn’t expect that Lord Wolf Peach would not move an inch and be as interested in listening to the foot of the room as I am. Wanting to talk to your majesty in private is impossible, it seems that we have to wait until night.”

“Night?” Si Li Li was alarmed and said, “Could it be that you’re going to wait in my room until night?”

Fan Xian raised an eyebrow, “Couldn’t I? You know I’ve never seen such a good-looking make-out session. When we return to Nanqing, I’ll use Cao Xueqin’s pen name to write a piece on the secret affairs of the Northern Qi Emperor’s boudoir, I’m sure it’ll sell a bit better than the Book of Stones, and if Tanyu Bookstore earns another large sum of silver, how about I split 20% of it and give it to you as a tip-off?”

Si Li Li sneered, “Could it be that you’ve never made out with the county princess?”

Fan Xian finally couldn’t help but laugh, and said with a wide-eyed smile, “The problem is lace edges like this, it’s really the first time I’ve witnessed it.”

“What is lace edge?” Si Li Li asked with those big eyes wide open in confusion.

Fan Xian withdrew his smile and calmly looked at her, saying word for word, “I’ve always been curious about how two women …… actually do that thing. Looking at His Majesty’s earlier look, it seems like he is indeed extremely interested in your body, could it be that he was born to be good at this?”

Si Li Li finally understood his words, and her face abruptly turned pale. This was a heavenly secret that the Northern Qi Imperial Family had hidden for nearly twenty years, and after Master Bitter Lotus’ death, only a handful of people in the entire world knew about it, but at this moment, it suddenly came out of Fan Xian’s mouth, making her unable to help but be horrified.

“Could it be that there are eternal secrets in this world?” Fan Xian huffed, sniffing the faint scent of golden laurel in the room, and looked at Si Li Li and said softly, “Especially for me, after the three of you fixed me up a bit, were you never afraid that I would guess this secret and use it to blackmail you?”

The shock in Si Li Li’s heart simply could not be removed, and she simply looked at Fan Xian’s face in disbelief, not even listening to what he actually said.

Seeing her trepidation and fear, Fan Xian comforted her in a harmonious voice, “What does this have to do with you? Why be afraid like this …… I’m just curious, earlier Wolf Peach was right outside the house, why didn’t you point out that I was in the house?”

Si Li Li was silent for a long time before she gradually digested the shock in her heart, bowing her head and biting her lip, “His Majesty and I were both inside the house, and I know your tactics, so Lord Wolf Peach was only too late to enter the house, so you could have killed the two of us.”

Fan Xian looked at her and shook his head, saying seriously, “You know that’s not the reason. But regardless, I want to thank you.”

Si Li Li suddenly raised her head and looked at Fan Xian, “No need to thank me, it should be me who thanks you. Back then, on the northbound road, you saved my life, and later on, you saved my brother’s life, and in the past few years, when I was in the Beiqi palace, you never tried to come and take control of me, and no matter what, I couldn’t bear to see you killed.”

“Of course.” She said in an aggravated tone, “I also won’t allow you to harm His Majesty.”

“You’re wrong about one thing.” Fan Xian said, “You’re just a noble consort, so if I really want to hurt your Emperor Majesty, you can’t stop me.”

He suddenly shook his head and sighed, “It’s already been four or five years since this happened, and I don’t know how you’ve been doing in the Upper Capital.”

Speaking of which, the relationship between the pair of Fan Xian and Si Li Li was so complicated that it could not be elucidated in just a few words, but Si Li Li was right earlier, Fan Xian had secretly made an agreement with Si Li Li to help her enter the palace, but had never tried to control her.

“The agreement between you and I, although no one under the heavens knows about it, but since you, my lord, have helped me avenge my death, I will naturally do my best to help my lord as well.” Si Li Li’s expression suddenly became solemn at this point, and she stood up, making a modest bow to Fan Xian.

Fan Xian always seemed to be constantly making all sorts of agreements with different women in this life, and when Yan Bingyun said that he had conquered the world by conquering women, it wasn’t a mockery, but a real existence.

Back then, all the way to the north in the springtime of the carriage, Fan Xian understood the poison buried in Chen Pingping’s body for Si Li Li, and at the same time promised her that when she had the opportunity in the future, she would report the family’s hatred for her, and Si Li Li promised to become his nail in the palace of Northern Qi.

Si Li Li is the year after the South Qing royal family, only her grandfather in the fight for the throne of the tragic killed, parents also in the future South Qing court in the pursuit of death, which will grow up in the capital city of North Qi.

And the military heavyweight who had betrayed Si Li Li’s grandfather and successfully assisted the late Emperor of Southern Qing in ascending to the throne back then was none other than Elder Qin, who had died at the hands of Fan Xian more than two years ago!

No matter what the starting point is, Fan Xian has always fulfilled the promise of that year and avenged the death of Si Li Li, only that a few years have passed, Si Li Li is far away in the deep palace of Northern Qi, and the Supervisory Yuan can’t control it at all, so Fan Xian isn’t sure if this woman still remembers the agreement of that year, and if she will still help herself.

The good thing is that the picture in the room earlier has confirmed that Si Li Li is willing to help Fan Xian, at least under the premise of not harming the little Emperor of Northern Qi, only that although Fan Xian is the man in the world who understands most about the mind of a daughter’s family, in the end, he is from Mars, and the woman is from Venus, so he has not grasped Si Li Li’s psychological activities with complete accuracy.

The fact that Si Li Li had helped him hide his body earlier was not only because she was grateful for his kindness in saving her life and taking revenge, but also because she had some indescribable emotions at work. This girl’s family had a strange life, and had once disguised herself as the first prostitute in Kyoto, doing espionage work for Northern Qi, yet the only man who had really had skin to skin contact with her, and could even be described as watery milk, was really Fan Xian.

Especially in that one bright moonlight night, the broken temple, the big bed above the golden laurel fragrance, men and women such as each other complex relationship general flesh complex, who knows exactly what happened.

The passage to a woman’s heart is the vagina? Who said that? But it seemed to have some truth to it, at least Si Li Li’s eyes were looking at Fan Xian at this moment, and then they were complicated to an outrageous degree.

Fan Xian was finally defeated by Si Li Li’s ghostly eyes, how could he forget the Flowing Crystal River flower animal several years ago, the carriage by the North Sea, the broken temple, the pavilion, this woman, only that he always thought that this woman was different from the women of the world, and that she had an extremely powerful control over her own future, and so he subconsciously kept his distance, however, this ghostly eyes made him finally realize that even the most powerful woman was still a woman after all. .

Beiqi’s palace in …… a real man are not, that kind of loneliness let Siliili how embarrassing, the girl I do not know how many times will think of Fan Xian soul-crushing fingertips, that gentle and chilling face, on the kind of bewildered thought for several years, even thought into a magic frustration.

Fan Xian was silent, gently holding Si Li Li’s hand, looking at her pair of eyes that can speak, a slight smile.

Si Li Li, however, suddenly remembered something, and smiled bitterly, “His Majesty treated me extremely well, and wanted to ask you for a favor.”

“He wanted to kill me many times.” Fan Xian looked at Si Li Li and said quietly, “I’m a person who has an axe to grind, especially this time when he came to Dong Yi City to plot too much for me to give it to them with both hands. Regardless of how the Qing royal family treated your family back then, but you are a Qing person after all, it’s impossible to watch the two of them join forces and put pressure on my Great Qing.”

“Ever since the death of my parents, I have never seen myself as a person of Southern Qing.” Si Li Li slowly pulled her hand back from his and said, “I’m just an ordinary and pitiful woman.”

Fan Xian was silent for a moment before saying seriously, “That’s right. It would indeed be emotionally unjustifiable to ask for your help in this matter. I just want to know how he went into the Sword Lodge in the past two days to talk to the Four Gu Swords.”

The corners of Si Li Li’s lips curled slightly as he smiled, “Perhaps you don’t believe me when I say it, to what extent is the Four Gu Swords’ stance so big that His Majesty personally condescended to come and enter the hut for two days in a row, but surprisingly, he didn’t even see the face of this great master.”

Fan Xian raised his eyebrows, his heart was shocked, secretly said four Gu sword exactly what happened? He didn’t even see the Emperor of Northern Qi when he arrived in person. Even if Four Gu Swords had used Thirteen Lang to express part of his attitude, the arrival of the Emperor of Northern Qi was clearly a sharp weapon he could use to bargain.

In one corner of the mountain courtyard, experts from Northern Qi and the Sword Lodge were hidden everywhere. In the midst of that patch of flowers, the young Emperor of Northern Qi who had been invited out by Wolf Peach had a wooden expression as he looked at the patch of grass huts below the mountain gate, the corners of his eyes twitching a little, as if he felt endless anger at the Four Guards Sword’s refusal to see him.

“Wang Thirteen Lang is going to break into the hut, it’s obvious that he’s going to bring a message to the Four Gu Swords on behalf of Nan Qing Fan Xian.” Wolf Peach said calmly from the side, “At this time, Yun Zhilan’s people are still stopping him outside. The problem is that although the disciples of the Sword Lodge are inclined towards our dynasty, it is always impossible for them to kill Wang XIII Lang in broad daylight.”

“In my opinion …… that person is Fan Xian.” The Emperor of Northern Qi closed his eyes and said softly.

Wolf Peach frowned slightly, he knew what kind of hard to mess with character Nanqing Fan Xian was, if Jin Yi Wei Commander Wei Hua hadn’t been able to stall Nanqing’s envoys and allowed Fan Xian to arrive at Dong Yi City early by himself, he was only afraid that this person would really have the ability to sabotage His Majesty’s plans.

“The attitude of the Four Gu Swords is too ambiguous and unclear, I can never guess what he really thinks.” The Emperor of Northern Qi suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were chilling, and said, “There will be a great war between our dynasty and Southern Qing, and once this man Fan Xian dies, the Emperor of Qing will surely be enraged and send out troops, but Dongyi City will only be able to fall back to our dynasty.”

“Together with the great war, how will it be cleaned up?” Wolf Peach frowned and said, “Even if Fan Xian dies in Dongyi City, Emperor Qing will surely put the blame on us.”

“So what if Fan Xian doesn’t die?” The eyes of the young Emperor of Northern Qi suddenly became perplexed, “Could he have prevented the war? My Daqi is not yet ready, and should not have ruffled the feathers of the South …… However, if I do not move, then Dongyi City will surely be swallowed up by the South Qing, and at that time, my Daqi will be even more weakened, and I will no longer be able to turn around.”

The age is light, but the real is calculated without a plan of the small emperor of north qi indifferently said: “I once counted on Fan Xian, but then thought carefully, not my kind of heart must be different, he is ultimately the illegitimate son of the emperor of the Qing dynasty, how can for the great qi consider? Especially within these few years, I look at him carefully, ignoring the Dingzhou side, how he really thinks, at least there is one thing I can confirm …… that nowadays he is still far from being a rival of Emperor Qing, and even less likely to influence Emperor Qing’s ambitions.”

Wolf Peach fell silent, regarding the matter of Dingzhou Qingzhou, as the current head of the Heavenly Dao, he was of course incredibly clear that quite a few of the Qingshan disciples had died at the hands of Fan Xian’s Supervisory Academy. After a long time, he said softly, “I wonder what Duo Duo would think.”

A hint of confusion flashed through the young emperor’s eyes, “If the young master aunt was in my position, I’m afraid she would have killed Fan Xian just the same.”

Right at this moment, the eunuch with a slightly sharp voice took small steps and hurriedly came to the side of the two of them, and lowered his voice to report, “An order has been sent to Noble Consort Li, ordering her to come to the garden. The room is already empty.”

“Daoist He and the good hands on the side of the Sword Lodge have each hidden their positions. Ready to strike at any time.” The eunuch reported with a trembling voice, thinking that entering the room earlier to deliver the decree to Si Li Li had really scared him.

Wolf Peach closed his eyes once and opened them once, his essence light made a big deal that is convergence, slowly said, “I will go.”

Beiqi little emperor nodded slightly, he knew in his heart that if that person in the room was really Fan Xian, if Wolf Peach didn’t personally make a move, just by virtue of Taoist He and a few strong people in the Sword Lodge, it wasn’t seen to be possible to leave him behind.

Wolf Peach marched towards that room. The young Emperor of Northern Qi stood beside the door of the mountain residence, looking at that square of grass hut, slightly squinting his eyes, not knowing how many complex emotions flashed through his eyes. As an emperor, there are always many last resort, even if it is ruthless, often the first thing is to be ruthless to yourself.

Si Li Li came behind him at this time under the eunuch’s leadership, glancing at His Majesty’s figure with a slight hint of doubt.

Beiqi Emperor slowly turned around, with a smile looking at his favorite woman, secretly thought that earlier if it was not Li Li fragrant tongue slightly astringent, the quiet room actually more than a trace of shyness that has not seen for a long time, I’m afraid that I still can not guess that the boy is actually bold and daring, sneaked into the mountain residence.
