Di Ji's eyes fell on her face, and he asked softly: "So, if I stay, you won't report me. In this case, I won't leave."

It was Hua Jiao who initially aroused the flames, but when he got serious, she suddenly panicked.

She pursed her lips and slowly raised her hand to touch his lower back. He had a smooth waistline and tight skin. He never expected that when he looked at the frail Yu Taiqing, he would also have a standard figure with broad shoulders and narrow waist after taking off his robe.

Di Ji's gaze suddenly became deep as he stared at Huajiao, and he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Ah Jiao, do you want to marry me?"

The hand that Huajiao was stroking back and forth paused slightly and looked at him blankly: "Are you proposing to me?"

Di Ji raised his eyebrows and said seriously: "What else? Since you want me to stay, you naturally want to marry me. Don't you not want to?"

Hua Jiao's body stiffened slightly, and he brushed the broken hair hanging down in front of his forehead. He raised his hand and slowly pushed Di Ji away. He smiled coquettishly and said, "I'm a little tired from going up the mountain today. I want to rest early. You'd better go back. .”

As soon as Hua Jiao's words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became stagnant.

Di Ji confessed so solemnly, but he didn't expect that she didn't take it seriously.

The light and shadow in the room were blurred, and Di Ji looked at the corner of the painting with resentful eyes, and asked quietly: "You don't want to marry me, is it because I am the Emperor of Yunxu, or because you don't like me."

When he was still Yu Taiqing, he proposed to her, but at that time, she went to Chongwu Mountain for business. Unexpectedly, when she came back, Pei Ruji took advantage of her.

This time, he must ask clearly.

"If because I am the Emperor of Yunxu, after capturing Que Sheng this time, I will stay in the human world."

He looked at her expectantly.

Hua Jiao sighed dejectedly. He never expected that things would take such a turn that it would reach this point.

She was in a hurry, but unexpectedly she pushed herself into a dead end.

She lowered her eyes and looked at the poison beads on her wrist. For fear of losing the beads, she specially set them on the bracelet.

She turned the bracelet gently, carefully considering how to explain it to him.

"I don't want to get married." She thought about it and finally told the truth.

"So you just thought I was a brothel performer, just looking for a moment of pleasure, and you don't want to be with me for a long time?" Di Ji looked at her expressionlessly, and his back slowly straightened, as if it was stretched. The string of the bow was tightened. If anger could turn into an arrow, the bow would have been stretched and ready to hit the corner at any time.

Huajiao looked at him in surprise and explained: "That's not the case. How could I miss you so much? How can an actor be as handsome as you..."

Before he finished speaking, Huajiao realized that he had said the wrong thing.

Di Ji was obviously hurt. He took off the cloak that was draped around his shoulders, and with a slight wave, he disappeared from the room in an instant.

Only the cloak was left slowly falling to the ground.

Huajiao knew that he was angry, the kind that couldn't be coaxed.

*
  Li Tao, King of Zhaozhou, was born into a royal family. He was less than forty years old, had thick eyebrows and a round face, and was fat. When he was young, he was also a pampered prince in the capital. After he ascended the throne, he was sent to the fiefdom of Zhaozhou.

He has a happy-go-lucky temperament and has become accustomed to life in Zhaozhou over the years. As long as he can live a stable life in the fiefdom with his children around his knees, he will be content.

He has no ambitions, unlike some vassal kings who are always dissatisfied and want to return to Lang'an City one day. Prince Li Huan raised an uprising in the capital of Shun, and all the vassal kings responded. Only Li Tao did not respond to the call, citing illness.

On this day, a staff member in the government said that his attitude could no longer be so ambiguous. After all, Prince Li Huan was the orthodox crown prince.

After the king of Zhaozhou had finished his breakfast, he ordered his servants to prepare carriages and horses, intending to go to Shundu. Before he left the house, the concierge came to inform him that the prince had sent someone to visit the sick man.

King Zhaozhou suddenly panicked. While ordering people to come in, he hurried to the bedroom and lay down on the bed.

After a while, I saw a servant leading a young man in.

He is dressed in rich clothes and has a handsome face. He wears a jade pendant on his belt and holds a jade vase in his hand. At first glance, he looks like the jade purification vase of Guanyin Bodhisattva painted in the painting.

The moment he entered the room, King Li Tao of Zhaozhou coughed violently several times, then looked at the person who came and said, "I am ill and have not been to Shundu to see His Highness the Crown Prince. I feel really guilty. I don't know who you are. , His Highness sent you here today, but do you have a decree to convey?"

The visitor raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled slightly at the King of Zhaozhou: "I am Xue Di, the son of Li Yunshang, the eldest princess of Wening. In terms of seniority, I should call you uncle."

The King of Zhaozhou stared wide-eyed. He was far away in Zhaozhou and had no idea about the changes in Beijing. I was a little surprised to hear that his name was Xue Di, but he claimed to be the son of Princess Wen Ning.

"Your surname is Xue, how can you be Yun Shang's child?"

Xue Di said with an ooh, "So you don't know that it was Xiao Sujun who married into Nanzhao, and it was Li Yunshang who married into the Xue Mansion. Then you don't know that I am actually..." He deliberately lowered his voice and held the hand of Yu Ping, walking towards King Zhaozhou step by step.

"What? What are you?" King Zhaozhou asked with a frown.

Xue Di smiled lazily: "I am a demon."

King Zhaozhou's eyes widened in disbelief, and after a while he suddenly laughed: "Don't say it's a joke."

"You don't believe it." Xue Di tilted his head and smiled. Through the window, he saw a seven or eight-year-old child playing in the yard outside.

He raised his hand and made a secret in the air. A small bubble flew out from the fingertips, like a soap bubble. When it reached the child, it suddenly grew larger and surrounded him.

The bubbles were filled with water, and the child instantly suffocated and flopped in the water. Helplessly, no matter how hard he struggled, the blisters would not burst.

Huang, the wife of King Zhaozhou, ran over like crazy and plunged into the blisters. She was rolling around the hospital holding her baby, who was wrapped in blisters.

After a while, the mother and son drowned in the water. When King Zhaozhou rushed over, the blisters burst suddenly. King Zhaozhou held his wife and children in his arms and cried heartbrokenly.

Xue Di looked at him with a smile and said slowly: "His Highness has summoned you many times, but you excused yourself from illness and refused to call. Today, His Highness specially sent me here to take the lives of your family. Although I am a demon, I am acting under orders. , remember, all this was done by Li Huan."

The King of Zhaozhou watched helplessly as his wife and children were killed, feeling extremely resentful.

"In this case, little thief Li Huan will kill me too. If he spares my life, he will not be spared." King Zhaozhou said fiercely.

Xue Di smiled, raised his hand, and with a flash of light, he collected the souls of Huang and the little boy in the jade bottle.

When Hua Jiao and Di Ji arrived at Zhaozhou Palace, they saw the soulless bodies of Huang and Xiaotong.

But the King of Zhaozhou disappeared. (End of chapter)
