Chapter 758 Meeting Gift
Two days later.
Perhaps it was because the autumn wind was too strong, or perhaps because the prince was too angry, the news that the emperor was ill suddenly came from the palace.
The whole country was in an uproar.
After the imperial physician gave the emperor an emergency acupuncture, the first thing he did when he woke up was to order that no one could disturb him except the queen.
The prince and the eldest princess were appointed as regents.
And the officials, such as Sikong Jian, who pleaded for the prince in front of the Ming Palace, had been kneeling for a day and a night.
As soon as the imperial edict was announced, Sikong Jian and others breathed a sigh of relief.
One by one, they became weak, fell to the ground, and gasped.
The prince's resignation was sloppy.
Except for the prince himself, everyone was very satisfied with the result.
The fact that the emperor could still let the prince regent meant that the impact of the Feng Wang incident on the prince had passed.
As for the princess's temporary appointment, it should be to give the prince a sense of crisis, so as to prevent him from doing such a stupid thing as resigning again.
It also told the prince that if he didn't want his position, there were others who wanted it!
Soon, the news that Prince Feng was ordered to enter the capital came from Danzhou.
This prince, who was born of the same mother as the emperor, could not escape the suspicion of the emperor.
On the first day of October, when Prince Feng entered the capital, the gates of Kyoto were closed, and all the people in the city were sealed in the market by the imperial guards and were not allowed to enter or leave.
The sky was dark, which was a sign of snow in winter.
However, Kyoto was adjacent to the coast, and there was no snow in winter all year round.
The white snowflakes only had time to fall over the capital before turning into cold rain and falling.
In the cold, the door of Qin Yao's house was knocked.
An unexpected person came - Lin Wei with a beast mask.
Si Niang went to open the door.
Today is the first day of the month, a day off.
Everyone in the family was accompanying Gong Liangliao, who didn't look very well, and the little girl volunteered to open the door.
The abbot had just come and told everyone not to go out, as something big might happen in the city today.
The door was knocked again, and Si Niang thought it was the abbot who had returned.
The door opened, and she saw a dark beast mask. In the two eye holes, a pair of black and white eyes stared at her.
Si Niang was secretly shocked.
But following A Niang also trained some courage.
While taking two steps back into the door, he asked: "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"
Lin Wei lowered his eyes and looked at the little girl in front of the door who was only as high as his chest. Surprisingly, he was not scared to tears.
"Is your housekeeper Awang here? Please ask him to come out. An old friend wants to see him for something."
A hoarse voice came from under the mask, and it was difficult to tell whether it was male or female.
But Si Niang saw that her exposed neck had no Adam's apple, and there were also characteristics on her chest, so she knew she was a woman.
So she asked cautiously: "What's your name?"
"Wei Lin." Lin Wei turned his name upside down and made up a name.
"Aren't you afraid of me?" She asked curiously.
Si Niang frowned, "Why should I be afraid of you? You're not a ghost!"
After saying this, she quickly closed the door and inserted the bolt.
Then she turned around and ran into the house, shouting to the adults as she ran:
"Mother, father, there is a strange woman outside the house. She said she was an old friend of Uncle Awang, but I think she is a bad person!"
Except Liu Ji who was worried about Gong Liangliao, the rest of Qin Yao and others all came to the front yard as soon as possible.
Awang's eyelids suddenly jumped twice, and his nose moved. The damn smell of meat buns made his heart sink suddenly.
I only heard Si Niang pointing at the door and saying to Qin Yao: "Mother, a strange woman came. She said her name was Wei Lin and she was looking for Uncle Awang. I saw that she didn't look like a good person, so I locked her out."
Wei Lin?
Isn't it Lin Wei the other way around!
Qin Yao quickly raised her eyes to look at Awang, who happened to look over as well. Seeing that he was a little irritated, Qin Yao gave him a soothing look.
When he first arrived at Liujia Village, she promised to protect him, and she would never break her promise.
"Ale." Qin Yao instructed Yin Le, "Take the children back to the room. No matter what noise you hear, don't come out without my permission."
Dalang said anxiously, "Mother, I'll stay too."
Although he didn't know who the Wei Lin was, the young man clearly felt that Uncle Awang and Mother were facing a great enemy.
Qin Yao shook her head, "Dalang, take good care of your younger brother and sister."
Then she waved her hand, signaling Yin Le and the others to retreat quickly.
Dalang glanced at the gate with concern, and didn't feel any danger at all, but because of this, it made people feel more uneasy.
"Mother, then you be careful." Dalang glanced at Mother and Uncle Awang again, and then hurried Sanlang, who was slow to stay at the end, to retreat to the backyard with Yin Le and others.
Seeing that the children had all left, Qin Yao told Liu Ji to stay in the study room. After receiving a response, she signaled Awang to go and open the door.
She had already picked up the box placed on the beam of the main hall, disassembled and assembled the crescent-shaped sword, and followed Awang.
The door creaked and slowly opened.
No hidden weapons flew in, and the people outside the door stood still.
When the door was fully opened, the first person the people outside looked at was not Awang, whom she had specifically asked for.
But Qin Yao, who was standing behind Awang and holding the crescent-shaped sword.
The more skilled one is, the clearer one's perception of danger is.
When Lin Wei saw the big sword that was heavier than his own at first sight, he gave up the idea of testing.
She was afraid that she would die if she tried.
So, she took out a lotus root powder cloth bag from her waist bag and presented it politely.
"This is a gift from my master that I brought to Madam. I want to borrow one from Madam and return it to you in good condition before dark."
Qin Yao did not respond immediately, but looked at her.
She was very tall, 1.7 meters tall.
She looked thin, but in fact, she was surrounded by vigorous energy fluctuations.
Qin Yao did not understand what this almost invisible energy wave was before.
After several contacts with Bai He, she realized that this should be the "qi" unique to high-level warriors in this world.
This kind of qi, except for herself, is the first time she has seen it in another person since she traveled through time.
No wonder Awang is not her opponent.
Although he is also a leader among masters, the gap between him and the man named Lin Wei is a qualitative change from quantitative change.
The training of the dead warriors is to consume the energy of the human body in advance, regardless of the consequences.
So the early stage of advancement is fast, but after the peak, there is endless backlash of the body, and the life is very short.
A warrior like Lin Wei is obviously not on the same path as the dead warriors.
She must have been taught by a very experienced master, and her own talent is the best among her peers.
So at such a young age, she has such a strong strength.
If there was no Qin Yao, a superpower, Xu Wenqing, who had the trump card of Linwei, could definitely sweep the world.
What a pity, what a pity.
Qin Yao nodded slightly to Awang.
Awang then stepped forward, took the gift from Linwei to meet the Holy Queen, and handed it to Qin Yao.
The small package of lotus root powder was very soft. Qin Yao pinched it. It was made of top-grade heavy satin and felt very good.
She opened the cloth package with some curiosity. Wait, it turned out to be a piece of underwear?
