Chapter 411: The Stunning Flower Demon in the Palace Fighting Novel (24)
Yu Sheng is the monster that Su Yu met after coming to Jiangnan. Coincidentally, the two knew each other before, but later the rabbit was picked up by a child, who took it home to raise it and brought it to Jiangnan.
Su Yu tugged at her hood roughly: "Put your hood on properly, your ears are showing."
This rabbit demon was not powerful enough and had only transformed halfway. It couldn't retract its ears, and it was not smart enough and was timid. If she hadn't been bored, she would have ignored this rabbit.
"If you're scared, wait for me over there."
Yu Sheng pulled her hood tighter and said softly, "Oh."
Su Yu squeezed into the crowd and saw the words on the notice with her good eyesight. She suddenly looked strange, even stranger than when she saw her wanted poster with her own eyes a year ago.
A year ago, Su Yu had just arrived in Jiangnan not long ago. It was still the same location, and there was still a group of people pointing at the notice on the wall.
Su Yu glanced at it unintentionally and saw her portrait posted there. There was a reward of a huge sum of gold for arresting the imperial criminals who stole the royal treasures. She was so scared that she didn't dare to go down the mountain for several months.
"Your Majesty summons all the enlightened people in the world to the palace?"
"Why did your majesty summon so many Taoists to the palace?"
The people around were as confused as Su Yu.
When he was with Xiao Yan, I never heard that he believed in Taoism. Could it be that he wanted to study some elixir of immortality like the emperors of all dynasties?
"You don't know this, do you?" Someone was well-informed. "A year ago, many Taoist priests in the capital were summoned to the palace, as well as senior monks in the temples. Now the scope has simply been expanded."
What the man didn't say was that there were people who were so bold as to deceive His Majesty, and they were beheaded directly. No Taoist priests from the capital or the surrounding areas dared to enter the palace anymore.
Only then did he summon Taoist priests from all over the country to come to Beijing.
Su Yu was wondering, when suddenly she thought of a terrible possibility.
Gulp your saliva.
Could it be that Xiao Yan summoned so many Taoists just to capture her?
Thinking of this, Su Yu shuddered and pulled the rabbit demon away.
"Xiaohua, what's wrong?" Yu Sheng was confused.
Su Yu didn't answer, but told her that she had to go back to the mountain to practice and couldn't play with her anymore.
At this time, in the palace.
Xiao Yan expressionlessly ordered the Imperial Master to continue thinking of ways. No matter what, he had to find Su Yu's trace.
Fu'an is old, and he went to a farm outside the palace to recuperate half a year ago. Now the young eunuch who had spoken for Su Yu before is serving Xiao Yan personally.
Seeing that Xiao Yan was determined to find the person, Xiao Dezi sighed in his heart.
A lot has happened in the past year.
After the Emperor's birthday banquet last year, His Majesty ordered the execution of his three brothers.
The once favored Empress Su suddenly disappeared. Within two months, His Majesty had someone spread the news of Empress Su's death.
Changle Palace was sealed off and no one was allowed to approach.
His Majesty still did not enter the harem, but occasionally summoned Concubine Xue to accompany him in the Purple Palace.
Your Majesty summoned Taoist priests and monks from all over the world to the palace and indulged in Taoism.
Your Majesty's headache is getting worse and worse, and you often can't sleep at night.
It would be nice if Empress Su were still alive.
After Su Yu left, Xue Chuyue became the number one person in the harem. Even Concubine Shu had to temporarily avoid the limelight. Concubine Zheng, who had offended her before, had been squeezed into some corner.
Qiuyu pinched Xue Chuyue's arm and said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty said a few days ago that he would tour the south. Is that true?"
Xue Chuyue closed her eyes and said, "It should be true, but the time has not been decided yet. It will be a year later at the earliest."
Xue Chuyue moved her arm and hissed. Ever since she was injured last time, this side of her shoulder has been feeling uncomfortable, especially on rainy days, when it always hurts.
Thinking back to the last time he was injured, Xue Chuyue thought of Su Yu.
Things change unpredictably. Who would have thought that the most favored concubine in the palace was Concubine Su a year ago? Now, the three words "Concubine Su" have become a taboo and cannot even be mentioned.
Changle Palace was also closed. Whenever Xue Chuyue passed by there, she would sigh.
If Concubine Su were still alive, I wonder what the harem would look like.
Qiu Yu said expectantly, "Your Majesty will definitely take the Empress with him when he goes on his southern tour."
Xue Chuyue didn't know either.
Compared to how Su Yu was favored in the past, the title of favored concubine is really unworthy of her. Apart from being lucky enough to be summoned by His Majesty to accompany her occasionally, she has almost no other opportunities to meet the emperor, and even... she has not yet been favored.
At night, the palace servants of the Zichen Palace knelt outside the palace trembling.
Your Majesty's headache has come back again.
Last time, there was an unlucky palace maid who, relying on her looks that were somewhat like Empress Su, entered the palace to serve in a coquettish manner. However, she happened to be the one serving the emperor when he had a headache, and her neck was cut by a sword before she could even make a sound.
From then on, everyone knew that when His Majesty had a headache, they should not get close to him, as it would be easy to lose their lives.
The hall was pitch black.
The candles were all out. Xiao Yan didn't like it to be too bright, so he leaned quietly against the head of the bed. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, no one would have believed that there was a dead person lying here.
The Concubine Yu in front of the window was placed at the bedside. Only when he looked at it did Xiao Yan feel at peace for a few moments.
The Imperial Master said that Su Yu was a flower demon, so her true form should be a poppy.
No wonder he had a quarrel with Concubine Ning over a flower, and no wonder he did not forget to ask himself which one was more beautiful, the poppy or the apricot blossom, when doing that.
However, when I thought that Su Yu approached me just for the dragon energy...
What does she think of the palace as a place where she can come and go as she pleases?
But be sure to hide it well.
otherwise……
Sometimes Xiao Yan wanted to kill Su Yu to vent his anger, and sometimes he couldn't help but wonder if she would have stayed a little longer for the dragon spirit if he had treated her better before.
The headache was getting worse, but Xiao Yan's face remained calm. Only the blue veins on his wrists barely showed how much he was enduring.
If someone without eyes came in at this moment, Xiao Yan couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't take his anger out on him.
The night deepens.
The moon in the south of the Yangtze River is very bright and even the wind is gentle.
Su Yu transformed into her original form and bathed in the moonlight. In a cave not far away, a rabbit was sleeping with its ears shaking.
【Task completion rate: 92 percent.】
Unfortunately, Su Yu didn't hear it. Her consciousness was falling, her body was wet, and the petals were soaked with water droplets, which reminded her of the luxurious and magnificent hot spring palace in Changle Palace.
The branches and leaves were forced to shrink, and a majestic golden dragon slowly coiled up, spraying dragon breath, causing the branches to tremble slightly.
The dragon wrapped around him tighter and tighter.
The branches that had finally grown stronger this year couldn't bear it and broke.
Su Yu cried, but her roots were firmly planted in the soil and she could neither run away nor hide.
She saw the dragon open its huge black mouth, and with just one bite, it could eat her whole body, flowers and leaves, even the roots in the soil.
“Don’t eat me…”
The giant dragon slowly opened its eyes, its golden vertical pupils majestic and cold. Amid Su Yu's prayers, it mercilessly lowered its head and bit off her petals.
Su Yu was awakened by fright.
There was thunder in my ears and heavy rain was falling on the ground. No wonder I felt wet, it turned out to be raining.
Thinking of the dream just now, her leaves trembled.
She had had this dream more than once this year, and each time it took her a long time to recover from the palpitations.
Didn’t it just absorb some dragon energy, Little Golden Dragon…now it should be called Big Golden Dragon, so stingy.
Thinking of the dragon energy, Su Yu sighed sadly.
Life is really hard without the dragon energy to breathe, and I have to practice on my own.
She just hoped that the task would be completed quickly. Once it was completed, she would hide in the system space and never think about these things again, waiting calmly to be teleported back to the quick-pass game.
