Chapter 291 Awakening from a Dream (1)(1/2)

Bai Xianyu knew that the boots fit her feet without trying them on. Xie Xingyun didn't know whether they fit or not, so she withdrew her eyes and said, "No need."

"I want to see you put it on." Xie Xingyun curled his lips slightly, "There is another pair here. You can wear them interchangeably if you like."

Xiao Zheng took advantage of the situation and lifted up the red cloth completely. Sure enough, there was a pair of identical deerskin boots inside, but the texture on the bottom was slightly different, which you couldn't tell without looking carefully.

Everyone's eyes were immediately focused on Bai Xianyu. She couldn't resist it, so she agreed, "Okay, I'll try it now."

"Isn't that enough?" Xie Xingyun said cheerfully, "I'll change it for you."

Bai Xianyu paused for a moment, but took the boots first and said calmly: "I can do it myself."

Xie Xingyun's body stiffened slightly and he slowly retracted his hand. Bai Xianyu didn't feel anything was wrong and walked straight into the house. Lu Zhu took the boots from her hand in time and carried them in.

After a while, Bai Xianyu walked out wearing boots. The long skirt covered most of it, and only a little of the embroidered surface of the boots was exposed. It was clear and smooth, shining with sparkling light. The gemstones reflected dazzling brilliance under the sunlight, and it was astonishing.

If gold flows.

The girl's waist is slender, her figure is graceful, her butterfly sleeves are blown up by the wind, she is as thin as a swallow about to fly, her complexion is translucent and shiny, the halo is blurred around her, all the red walls and high tiles

They all became her foil.

Xie Xingyun's gaze moved from her boots to her eyes, and when he met those apricot eyes, he was unusually nervous.

Bai Xianyu's gaze paused on the man for a second, and she closed her eyelids. She didn't know why, but when she put on these shoes, she actually felt that the temperature of the soles of the boots remained high, as if there was still residual warmth. She could not stand due to the burning heat.

stable.

"It's very beautiful." Xie Xingyun was the first to break the silence. He raised his lips and looked at Bai Xianyu with a smile.

Bai Xianyu was on pins and needles. She took a deep breath and reluctantly said, "Thank you."

Then he looked at the robe lying aside and issued an eviction order, "You gave me these two pairs of boots. The robe I made for you will be completed soon. The wedding is coming, so I have to concentrate on it now."

"

Xie Xingyun frowned slightly. Although he was not satisfied with her letting him go, he thought that she did it for him, so he finally nodded, "Okay, don't do it too late."

"Um."

Lu Zhu looked at the man's leaving figure and said in surprise, "Oh my God, Miss, these deerskin boots can't be... they can't be the ones you encountered when you and the young Marquis went hunting that day.

White deer?"

Bai Xianyu guessed it, "It should be no accident."

"White deer! That is an auspicious sign of peace and prosperity for the country and the people. In the past, during the ten years of the late emperor's reign, he only had one as a tribute. He kept it in the palace until he died of old age and was even given a tomb. How could the young marquis bring such a treasure?"

Make boots for you, Miss..."

Luzhu secretly smacked his lips, this was such a big gesture.

White deer are full of treasures, the most rare thing is rarity, rarity is the most precious thing, these two pairs of deerskin boots are the treasures among treasures.

Especially the white deer discovered in various dynasties, those registered in the records were all presented to the royal family, and their names are only heard among the people.

Not to mention the priceless gems inlaid on it.

"No matter how precious it is, it is something outside the body." Bai Xianyu took off her boots and put them beside her. She sighed softly, "Luzhu, please bring me your robe."

"Okay, miss!"

After completing these five things, Fu Yuanjian should have returned with the antidote. The poisonous insects in her body could be expelled, and the matter should be settled.



When Ji Shuang arrived outside Kyoto, she stayed at an inn and covered herself tightly. She had never worn a hat before, so her face was just for others to see.

Besides, she is not bad looking, and there is no reason to cover her up. Another important reason is that the weather is too hot.

But now she covered herself from head to toe, and even made a simple disguise inside.

If you enter Kyoto, you can't guarantee that you won't meet someone you know well. If you recognize him, you might be in trouble.

The fewer people know she is coming to Kyoto, the safer Xianyu will be.

Thinking of this, Ji Shuang immediately picked up paper and pen, wrote a letter, and used pigeons to send the message to Bai Xianyu.

Bai Li was always on guard. He intercepted the pigeon as soon as it flew in. He couldn't tell who wrote it, so he handed it over to Bai Xianyu directly.

"Miss, someone has sent a message!"

Bai Xianyu had already fallen asleep. He fought back his sleepiness and opened the mailbox. There were only two words written in it: Arrived.

The handwriting was deliberately blurred, but Bai Xianyu immediately knew who wrote it. Her sleepiness completely dissipated, "Bai Li, reply to the letter."

"Miss, what are you replying to?"

"Disperse."

Bai Li followed her words and wrote a reply, "Miss, what does 'san' mean?"

"Three." Bai Xianyu said softly, "Three days later."

"We are leaving Kyoto and heading to King Pingnan's territory."

Bai Li didn't realize it, so he took Ji Shuang's letter, burned it to ashes, and then wrote back the letter.

Ji Shuang and Bai Xianyu have known each other since childhood. When she saw this "breakup", she immediately understood what Bai Xianyu meant. She checked the things she had brought with her uneasily. According to the speed of her death guard, the two of them

You can get here within a few days.

Just waiting for news from Bai Xianyu.



Inside the imperial city.

Emperor Wu Xuan was sitting on the dragon chair. He was already in his thirties and had gray hair on his temples. He said in a deep voice: "Tan Shen, it has been seven days since you resigned from office. Do you understand?

"

There was some profound meaning in Bai Tan's deep eyes, "I understand."

"Just understand it." Emperor Wu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Now that you have understood it, you can tell me why you want to resign? Is it because you heard some rumors?"

The rumors outside are just about his great achievements and shocking masters, and I'm tired of hearing them.

Bai Tan thought deeply for a moment and said: "I have been on the war with my father since I was a child. It has been more than ten years now. I feel that the killing is too heavy. All the guards around me died in the battle before me. Now that the war is over, I don't want to involve my family."

Emperor Wu Xuan was slightly surprised, "When did Aiqing believe this? If the fate of the people around you is affected by too much killing, then why am I not affected?"

"Your Majesty is the true Dragon Emperor. He has his own dragon energy to protect his body and is immune to all evils." Bai Tanshen said without being humble or arrogant: "But my younger sister is still young. Whenever I return to Beijing, I become weak and frail. My parents have long been pregnant.

After his death, all the brothers in the family regarded Xianyu as their life, so they came up with this idea."

Emperor Wu Xuan smiled when he heard this, "Don't worry. Now that Xianyu is married to Xingyun, he is considered half of the Kui royal family. If you are worried, I can ask the master to chant sutras and pray for you. I express my love.

how?"

Bai Tan smiled slightly and said, "My lord, thank you for your grace."

What he said was half true and half false, all for the sake of Bai Xianyu's smooth escape later.

After Bai Li finished conveying the message, Bai Xianyu also informed them of the specific plan. He and Bai Jingyuan spent the whole night thinking about it, adding some details, and confirming that nothing was missing before they prepared to act according to the plan.

As for her marriage to the Xie family, Bai Tanshen couldn't tell for a moment whether her sister really liked Xie Xingyun or was taking advantage of him from the beginning.

After all, if they were just witnesses, the emperor might still have doubts. If the Xie family or even the eldest princess saw it with their own eyes, and with the subsequent arrangements, the suspicious things could be dealt with without anyone noticing.

After Bai Tanshen left, Emperor Wu Xuan walked to the harem. The eunuchs accompanying him laughed softly: "Your Majesty, where are we going now?"

Emperor Wu Xuan paused, frowned and said, "How about Li Changning?"

The eunuch was stunned for a moment and replied: "Your Highness, the Seventh Princess, is still the same as before. The imperial doctor has prescribed many medicines but they are of no use. It is too late to think about it. It will take some time to recover."

"Yuanjing Fu hasn't come back yet?"

"I heard that Judge Fu has already boarded the boat back to Kyoto and will be back soon."

"It took him a long time to return home this time." Emperor Wu Xuan said calmly, "When he comes back, let him go directly to treat Ning'er."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Elsewhere in the palace, An Bin was feeding Li Changning, her face already a little ugly, "Are you going to eat or not?"

"Eat! Eat!" Li Changning chuckled, her eyes numb. She said eating, but she slapped An Bin's hand holding the spoon to compare the weight!

An Bin screamed a few times, threw out the spoon, and gritted her teeth and said, "I don't trust An Bin if I feed you anything again!"

"Come and feed her!" An Bi pointed at the maid with hatred, "It's you. If Ning'er doesn't finish her meal today, you won't be able to eat in the next three days!"

"Yes!" The palace maid hurriedly stood up, picked up the spoon, and went to feed the seventh princess fearfully.

In the past, the Seventh Princess was so glorious. She was surrounded by people and responded to every call. Now she is crazily crowded together with her mother, and even if she eats a meal, she will be scolded.

An Bin dumped Li Changning to others and finally breathed a sigh of relief. She gritted her teeth and scolded: "Be brave and get better soon!"

If she gets better, maybe the emperor will remember her kindness and come to the harem to see her.

If Ning'er continues to be unwell, she may never see the emperor again in her lifetime!

Li Changning smiled foolishly, nodded and shook his head again and again.

An Bin pinched her temples, her eyebrows twitching, "Take her out for me, don't let me see her looking like a human or a ghost again!"
