Chapter 17
The steward in the palace shouted, "Hurry and clean up this place. Where does this smell come from? The palace draft is about to happen. If you make such a smell, you don't want your head, right?"

"What exactly is that smell?" Look at me, servants, and you don't even know what the strange smell is in the yard, let alone where it comes from.

Wei Bing was inspecting the place and saw that Steward Ji's brows were furrowed and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. He was too embarrassed to ask more questions, but he could smell the smell in the air clearly.

The fishy smell is rare in the world.

Wei Bing quickly covered his nose and ran back to the Third Emperor's palace.But he didn't want someone to sprinkle a puddle of water outside the gate of the hall, and a careless person made him, who had practiced martial arts since childhood, fall forcibly.The fall was painful, but when he raised his hand, he realized that this was not ordinary water. It was slippery and sticky. Although it was transparent, it could not be regarded as clean water.

After the pain subsided a little, he realized that the smell was simply the fishy smell that could be smelled along the way.

Could it be that the smell followed him here?Or does the taste originate from this water?

"Third Prince, Your Highness, Your Highness" Wei Bing staggered to his feet.

"Why are you so alarmed? You...what do you smell like?" Xiao Jin frowned. He had noticed that the smell in the palace was strange before, but now seeing Wei Bing's embarrassed appearance, he was both amused and worried at the same time.

"Just now, I slipped and fell when I arrived at the palace gate, and got this strange water stain on my body. I should have changed my clothes and come back to see His Highness, but I felt that there was such a strange smell in the palace. Something strange happened, so I rushed in anxiously."

What weird smell?Is that me?What do I smell like?The interest exchange day was just yesterday, how could there be any smell? These people are really strange. They all gasp for air when they talk, as if they will die at any time.

Water damage?What water damage?What happened?This is where?I was obviously at the Shengping Banquet, and then when I arrived at Luyaoting, I met a strange person. How come they are all strange people?Am I still in Luyaoting?

"Sir, can't you smell this weird smell?" Xiao Jin asked.

"I smell it." Ye Xiaolou was still wearing apricot clothes and stood where he always stood.The smell didn't seem to bother him at all.

"Sir, you are truly a god." Wei Bing glared at Ye Xiaolou angrily.

"Don't be rude, Wei Bing. How many times have I told you that you are all the closest people to me. Don't act like a rude warrior when talking to your husband."

"Your Highness, I have always been a martial artist. When you were studying, I used to wield swords and swords. When you were not studying, I still wielded swords and swords. Naturally, I was a bit rude."

"You can also be gentle and elegant when wielding a sword. My husband is very skilled in martial arts and is full of knowledge."

The third prince doesn't know why he trusts Ye Xiaolou so much. Although Wei Bing has no doubts about Ye Xiaolou's resourcefulness, it doesn't mean he likes this person. The three of them grew up together, but Ye Xiaolou's serious attitude , which made Wei Bing feel inferior. It was okay for him to be inferior to the third prince, but he was really unhappy about being inferior to Ye Xiaolou.

Ye Xiaolou couldn't see Wei Bing's thoughts at all, but he saw something clinging to his body, or to be precise, life clinging to him.

He was very familiar with this smell, but it was interesting that this kind of life could be so attached to another person.

At this time, Xiaoyu didn't know that she was attached to the body of the person on land. She didn't know that her form had completely dissolved, because her mind was intact and her memory was gradually restored.She thought of the missing Sang Sect leader, the strange beasts in Jingyue Pond, the competition to select the envoy, and finally she thought of Wan City, feeling sad in her heart.

She struggled for a moment, as if she wanted to break through something. Ye Xiaolou saw the water stains diluted outward from Wei Bing's elbow, and quietly raised his fingers to gently wrap up the scattered water droplets.

Xiaoyu felt warm all over her body, like lying in seaweed.

"Where is this?" she asked.

No one heard.

"Hurry up and change your clothes. There will be a talent show in a few days. If Princess Qi's people see the mess in our palace, they will have to come up with something to criticize."

Concubine Qi?In the palace?Could this be a royal palace?Have I arrived at the palace?Have I reached land?how come?what happened?

She had many questions to ask, too many questions.If this was land, how did she get here?Xiaoyu is not stupid, she knows that asking the two people in front of her may not be useful, and they cover their noses and look very unfriendly.

"Stand there and don't move."

"Who? Are you talking to me?"

Xiaoyu felt a gentle-sounding voice next to her ear. Maybe it was an illusion, because no one was in her ear at all, let alone talking to her.

"Girl, don't move. You're so heavy and I'm not responsible for being able to hold you."

"Hold me? Why do you hold me? I have hands and feet. Can't you see it? You must have seen it, otherwise you wouldn't call me a girl."

"No, just because I know you are a girl doesn't mean I see you are a girl."

"What kind of truth is this? If you are a girl, you are a girl. If you are not a girl, you are not a girl. How can something be and not be?"

"Interesting." Ye Xiaolou raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and he didn't even know he was smiling just now.

"Where are you?"

"I'm out of sight of you."

"Where is it?"

Could this be the messenger?It is true that one generation is inferior to the other under water, and I dare not bring this skill to land.Ye Xiaolou already felt some pleasure, but the pleasure was not enough to make him move.

Sometimes, standing still like a tree was his way of having fun.He is more satisfied with playing with himself than with others.

The world is too boring. If he is unwilling to save the world, it must be because most of them are too boring, too eager for quick success and have no fun at all.

Fun is the only thing in life that can make him feel alive. Yes, fun is not pain. For many people, it may be pain. Ye Xiaolou is not afraid of pain. He can even find fun in pain that ordinary people cannot understand.

There is only one person in the world, Ye Xiaolou, who pursues fun tirelessly.

"I will take you out. You will be kicked out if you act like this." "Why should I listen to you? Strange, can't these two people hear me?"

Ye Xiaolou gently pressed the water drop, and Xiaoyu felt warm behind her, as if someone's hand was supporting her.

"Why are you the only one who can talk to me? Did you cast some spell so that others can't see me or hear my voice?"

"Why don't you say it's because you don't have enough skill? If I guess correctly, you are not a land person, you are a monster."

Ye Xiaolou thought of more interesting ideas for the girl in front of him.It wouldn't be much fun to help her restore her human form now.

"How many days have you not showered? The smell is so weird, I don't even want to take you away."

"Who asked you to take me away? I have a lot of things to do. Why should I go back with you?"

When Xiaoyu thought about it, she didn't know what was going on under the water now, and whether the messenger had already arrived on land. In any case, she should go back to Wan City first to tell her father that she was intact, but she was brought to land inexplicably.It's better to complain about the people on land who are ugly and rude. Of course, rude people are ugly themselves, and everyone in Wancheng understands this.

The people here are so rude, they all hold their noses, as if I'm a bunch of rotten shells.

"So rude."

Just in the middle of speaking, I felt my body light up, a gust of wind blew by, and all I could see was apricot yellow stain.

It smells good and feels familiar.There is another thing beating powerfully. Ah, could it be the body of a person on land?Is this smell like a human being?
It smells really good, somewhat similar to people underwater. After all, dad said that we are not much different from them in appearance after arriving on land, but this smell is so good that it makes me want to sleep.
Xiaoyu turned her body back and forth a few times, then stretched out her hand to touch the jumping place for a while, and finally couldn't help but put her ear on it.

Ye Xiaolou felt his arms were cold and getting heavier.It seems it's time to go back. If this continues, the smell will only get worse.

This little fish doesn’t know how to clean it either.

"It seems that I don't have time to play chess today. I want to go back to enjoy the snow. The third prince won't try to stop me."

"Appreciating the snow? Sir, I'm so excited, but where did the snow come from in this early spring in Jinling?"

Wei Bing asked smartly.

"Everything is hidden in the heart of the piano."

Ye Xiaolou knew that Wei Bing could not understand what he said, but Xiao Jin would understand, and now he hoped that another person might also understand.

Xiao Jin nodded knowingly, "I really envy the small building for having such a precious land like Qixia Mountain. If you want to play the piano, you can sit halfway up the mountain without being troubled by the ban on the piano. As the morning sun welcomes the fragrance, play a song "White Snow", and then play "Qingjiao" ", at dusk, with the afterglow of the setting sun, the music dances like petals. Thinking of this scene, I want to go to the mirror and go to the building to bother me for a few days."

"Do you still know Qin Xin? Why does it snow in Qin Xin?"

Xiaoyu asked curiously.

"If you have it in your heart, you will have it in your voice."

Xiaoyu secretly wondered why this man spoke the same strange sentences as Master Yuan Chan.

Could it be that there are people on land who are obsessed with Qin Xin? So there are really many similarities between people underwater and people on land.But wait, what did he just say?Snow?snow?

"Did you just talk about enjoying the snow?" Xiaoyu asked quickly.

"Well, enjoy the snow."

"Really? Can you really see snow?"

"Maybe, it depends on how good your skills are?"

"My skills are definitely not too bad."

interesting.His body has dissolved and he can still speak harshly.

Since Ye Xiaolou left the palace, the previously annoying smell has disappeared.Everyone in the palace is waiting for the draft ceremony. During the spring plowing season and the draft in the palace, no matter how chaotic the situation outside is, the women in the palace will never care about these things. In the past dynasties, if the enemy soldiers had not entered the palace wall, They didn't even know that the sky had changed.

The emperor is naturally the protagonist of the draft, but this draft is not for the current emperor, but for the two princes. Of course, there are also some selfish concubines. The position of queen has been vacant for many years, and everyone wants to give themselves more lives in the harem. She has two pairs of eyes and two pairs of ears. If she can have a capable young woman who can join forces with her, it will certainly be an extra bargaining chip in the fight for the position of queen.

The country of Qi is protected by the right time and place. Which prince is more virtuous and which prince is more knowledgeable is not much different. It is natural for a mother to want to leave the best for her children. It is natural in the world. Although the emperor is reluctant, But he will not worry too much about these women's affairs. In the past ten years, the emperor has not only alienated his concubines, but also his state affairs, leaving them to several adult princes and ministers of the court.

The emperor knew in his heart that the peace and prosperity of Qi for many years was due to the contributions of these ministers and princes. The only thing that worried him was that he never had enough generals.

After all, God is fair. If he gives you the right time and location, he will not be able to give you a wealth of talents.

"The draft is a laborious matter. It's just a good show sent by Prince Yan's Palace. Concubine Lao Qi took great care of it. Prince Yan's Palace guards the southwest border and was originally loyal to Hou Shu. Prince Qin was highly valued by the Emperor of Later Shu. Unfortunately, since the new emperor succeeded Later, he believed the slanders and became suspicious of Prince Qin, fearing that he would support his own troops, so Da Qi got this rare general.

Now that he is guarding the southwest border, although I am relieved, I do not dare to neglect him. "

"I, my concubine, should pay more attention to her and go and have a look in the next few days. If the girl is outstanding in appearance and sensible, she can just find a prince to marry her, and she will be considered as in-laws."

"Then I'll bother you, Concubine Qi."

"Yeah." She said shyly like a [-]-year-old girl.

There are many folk rumors that Tianzi is an infatuated and good man, but they don't know that in the face of such beauty, anyone is willing to put down the country and smile just for Yiren, and the emperor of Qi State doesn't want Jiangshan, and he doesn't even seem to be interested in beauty.
