098 Memories of Immortals

It is getting closer and closer to the 49 days mentioned by Feng Jingming. Every day is a mark of waiting. Every moment makes Murong Xueyan feel like suffering.

Originally, for a long time, she had no hope of healing the scar on her forehead, but Xue Xijian insisted on curing her scar. Therefore, the closer she is to the scheduled treatment date, the more uneasy she feels.

According to Feng Jingming, after the blood Linglong is nourished by the dragon blood and can be used for treatment, he will smash a quarter of the blood Linglong and apply it to her wound. The rest will be fried on a slow fire and taken by her.

Thinking of Xue Xijian's own blood for so many days, she had an indescribable panic in her heart. She can't understand Xue Xijian more and more. I don't understand what he wants and what he does for her. When the two of them had nothing, what she wanted was just to spend the time to the fullest, and what he wanted was to climb back to the heights, run back to his own things, and use his own strength to avenge the dead people around him. Now, his seat has also been taken back, and the revenge has been done. What else does he want?

He is 20 years old. According to the ancients, he is a weak year. As an emperor, he should accept concubines and enrich the harem. His situation is different from that of Beitanghao. Behind Beitanghao, there is a mother behind him who takes care of everything and presides over everything for him. In his harem, except for the maid of honor, she is the only woman who has no name. Therefore, he did not have pressure from his mother to force him to accept the concubine as soon as possible. He was probably happy to delay and let the harem empty.

On that day, taking the opportunity to talk to him about the past, she took the opportunity to elaborate on her "monogamy". This is a concept from the 21st century. With Xue Xijian's background, she should not understand, right? If he doesn't want the woman in his harem to be ousted by her one day, he should understand that he should not have any extravagant expectations for her. In the 21st century, it is very common for a woman to remarry after divorce, but in ancient times with a harsh concept of chastity, this should not be tolerated, right? After all, this is not the extravagant Han Dynasty, nor is it the open Tang Dynasty.

"Xue Yan." The appearance of Xue Xijian became more and more mysterious. He began to like to detach all the maids of honor, just to have more opportunities to be alone with her.

"See you, Emperor." Even if there are only two of them, she still has no lack of etiquette.

"Why do we need to see each other like this?" He smiled and covered his faint loss. After a pause, he asked again, "Xueyan, what kind of person am I in your eyes?"

"The emperor is a virtuous gentleman." Murong Xueyan briefly summarized.

"Compared with Nan Gongyi?" He asked further questions.

"That's different." Murong Xueyan smiled. During this period of time, except for Xue Xijian talking to her every afternoon, she was quietly alone. Draw, sing, copy poems, and do whatever you want to do. This peaceful life made her much more detached and indifferent. When mentioning Nangong Yi again, he can also comment with the most peaceful mind: "Nan Gongyi's father, Nangong Yu, turned out to be a general. At first, he attacked his father's position as a general, but his throne was won by himself because of his outstanding military achievements.

"So what? Even Bei Tanghuan, the former emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, was a traitor..." Xue Xijian didn't think so.

"A traitor?" Why is this version completely different from what she heard from Xiurong? At that time, Xiurong called her father Murong Rui, who helped Beitang Huan ascend to the throne, as a meritorious official and a hero. If Bei Tanghuan is a traitor, then what is her father?

Seeing the confusion and unhappiness in Murong Xueyan's eyes, Xue Xijian slowly told her the facts he saw from an objective perspective.

Thirty-two years ago, Northern Qi was not called Northern Qi, but Jiang Guo. In those years, King Heng of the State of Jiang was dissatisfied with Emperor Jiang You's accession to the throne at that time and instigated a rebellion. For a moment, the two armies clashed, and life was ruined and blood flowed into a river. At that time, the former emperor Beitanghuan, who was still the general of Jiang, was ordered by the emperor to lead the army to fight against King Heng, while Murong Rui and Nangong Yu were the right and right hands of Beitanghuan. That war lasted for three years. Three years later, King Heng's power was exhausted. Emperor You issued an edict ordering Beitang Huan to return to the court, but Beitang Huan, at the instigation of Murong Rui and Nangong Yu, quickly returned to Beijing with his army and surrounded the great imperial city.

Beitanghuan, who was in power, destroyed the royal family of the State of Jiang with lightning speed and replaced it. He became the king and changed the name of the country to Northern Qi. As a result, Murong Rui and Nangong Yu rose and were canonized as prime minister and general respectively.

For this reason, Nangong Yu and Murong Rui are the founding heroes of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

In this way, the behavior of Bei Tanghuan, the former emperor of Northern Qi, is typical... Er, the "seeking to usurp the throne".

This fact made Murong Xueyan a little ashamed. But on second thought, how many emperors have always been clean in order to seize the throne? Even Li Shimin, the most heroic monarch in the feudal era recognized by later generations, has the stain of the "change of Xuanwumen". Other emperors are better than that. She told Xue Xijian her thoughts without reservation, and heard that Xue Xijian also nodded repeatedly and was convinced by her point of view.

"It doesn't matter how to ascend the throne. What matters is to be a good emperor." Murong Xueyan added another sentence.

To be a good emperor... Is this the inspiration for him? Xue Xijian is determined to be a good emperor, but he must stand beside him as an emperor.

"I will do it." He laughed.

"Xueyan believes that the emperor can do it."

"There are still three days left, and Feng Jingming is going to cure your face. Are you nervous?"

"It's a little bit." Murong Xueyan smiled, "But think about it, even if it can't be cured, it should not be worse than before, right? I've been ugly for so many years.

"I never thought you were ugly." He stared at her seriously.

She deliberately dodged and avoided the topic: "Your Majesty, it's getting late. It's time for you to go back to eat."

"Okay, you take a rest first." Xue Xijian did not force him to stay.

In the future, he will have many opportunities to stay with her. He doesn't believe that she can always push him out.

2

Seventy-seven forty-nine days were completely spent. In the evening, a large area of magnificent sunset reflected a large area of the sky.

Feng Jingming took the blood Linglong to Changxue Pavilion to treat Murong Xueyan.

Method, as he explained before, is consistent-

Feng Jingming divided the blood into four, a quarter of which was smashed and applied to her wound, and then handed over the remaining three-quarters to the Taiyuan Hospital and put it into the medicine jar and fry it slowly for two hours.

I was busy until late at night, and I was finally busy. The medicine on Murong Xueyan's forehead must be applied for three days and nights before it can be removed. When the gauze was removed, it was also the time for her to regain her beautiful face.

In the past three days, she did not go out for half a step, nor did she see Xue Xijian. She calmed down and copied the Buddhist scriptures in the bedroom.

The day before the gauze was removed, she stood in front of the mirror for a long time, imagining the situation on her forehead. If she is lucky enough to be cured and restore her former beauty...

Everyone says that appearance is just a skin, and more importantly, it is the beauty of the soul, but there are few people who really do it. What the world cares most is that skin. Although Murong Xueyan believes that she is free and easy, she is not exempt from vulgarity at this point. In the past, after leaving a scar on her forehead, she would make a large slant bang here every day to cover the ugliness here. After the scar was cured, she no longer had to cover it up...

If Nangong Yi had the opportunity to see what she looked like when she regained her beautiful face, I don't know, how would she feel?

That's all, don't think about it anymore.

The woman in the mirror, her eyes are like autumn water, and her eyebrows are slightly frowned. It is clear that she also cares about a person.

That person is the one she tried her best to forget, but she can't forget it - Nangong Yi.

Xue Xijian came to Changxue Pavilion in person and sat aside to watch the wind mirror remove the gauze on Murong Xueyan's forehead.

The gauze came down layer by layer, wrapped around the ground, and slowly. Finally, her forehead was exposed.

It is as smooth as jade, and there is no old scar.

Her face is as delicate as white porcelain, her skin is more beautiful than snow, her eyebrows are picturesque, and her cherry lips are bright red...

There are beautiful women in the north, who are peerless and independent. Look at the city of people, and then look at the country.

If the legendary Mrs. Li is born again, isn't that all? This kind of beauty, this kind of shaking people's heart, it's hard to be arrogant.

At this moment, a statue swept over like a storm, making Xue Xijian tell himself over and over again that he wanted to keep this magnificent woman, and he wanted to let her be by his side, and the two of them held the country hand in hand. This country was originally her help him, and she was absolutely qualified to stand in the position of the mother's world.

"How's it going?" Murong Xueyan's tone revealed her nervousness.

"The girl is really as beautiful as a fairy." The wind mirror is admiring.

"It's so beautiful..." Ruxin and Jingyu were shocked at the same time, "Girl, you are more beautiful now than before."

"Here is the mirror." Xue Xijian was ready for a long time. He took out a mirror from his sleeve pocket and handed it to her hand.

Murong Xueyan looked at the face of the woman in the mirror.

Yes, the scar on her forehead that originally "broken" is indeed gone. The whole forehead is smooth and delicate, and there is no flaw in a delicate face.

But, is it as exaggerated as everyone's reaction?

You know, she lived with such a face before she was cut by the dagger of Yan Guifei! But at that time, it didn't necessarily attract Nangong Yi!

Thinking of Nangong Yi, another idea inevitably arises - she thought that she should leave, leave this palace that does not belong to her, go where she wants to go, and start a new life that she wants to live.
