She was wearing a light green dress, and her face was beautiful. Her delicate facial features were as if they were painted, and there was no flaw to be found.
Especially those eyes, clear and ethereal, exuding a faint sense of distance, which cannot be blasphemed when viewed from a distance.
"Yan Huang, you...why are you here?" Luo Feng's voice trembled.
"Why, could it be that the golden house hides the beauty? Isn't it convenient for me to go in?" Zhuo Ying teased.
"No, no, no." Luo Feng shook his head, stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation, and said, "Please, Emperor Yan."
So, the two of them came to the small courtyard behind the cave and sat down on the stone table.
Under the moonlight, Yanhuang held her fragrant cheeks in her hand, stared at Luo Feng with her beautiful eyes, her long eyelashes fluttered, and said, "Can you drink?"
Luo Feng was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes."
"Drink a few drinks with me." Zhuo Ying gently rubbed the star ring, and a jade bottle appeared, along with two glass-like bowls.
"Okay." Luo Feng picked up the jade bottle and filled the two bowls with emerald-like wine. Suddenly, a strong aroma of wine filled the air.
Holding the glass bowl in Zhuoying's jade hand, she raised her head slightly, revealing her swan-like white neck, and took a big sip. A blush suddenly appeared on her delicate and pretty face.
"Luo Feng, have you ever thought about your future?"
she asked suddenly.
Luo Feng was also startled when he heard this. He was really confused after this question.
In the past, when he was in the Outer Holy Land, his goals came one after another, challenge - semi-finals - finals, but now, he is in an empty window.
"Practice hard, study hard, participate in competitions, and become famous in the Holy Land?" Luo Feng gave a standard answer.
Flame Emperor stared at him and said with a smile: "Then, what about after graduating from Holy Land Academy?"
Hearing this, Luo Feng was confused, and the Flame Emperor really stopped him.
"What do other star card masters do after graduation?" he asked tentatively.
Zhuo Ying half-smiled but said, "Of course, each of us will go back to our own homes, get wives and have children."
Luo Feng was stunned. He could no longer remember where the original owner's home was.
"Of course, if you are good enough, you can also work in the Four Pavilions. The best star card masters in our Yan Dynasty will all work in the Four Pavilions of Wind, Fire, Thunder and Water after graduating from the Holy Land." Zhuo Ying said.
Luo Feng's eyes lit up and he said, "Can I do it?"
Zhuo Ying blinked her beautiful eyes and said: "Not only can you enter, I also plan to train you to become the chief pavilion master and rule the four pavilions."
"Thank you, Emperor Yan." Luo Feng looked grateful. If you don't eat this soft rice, you won't get it for nothing.
"Don't be too happy too early." Zhuo Ying's pretty face suddenly condensed and she said: "The food that the Chief Pavilion Master has is not that delicious."
Luo Feng: "Huh?"
Zhuo Ying took a sip of wine and said, "Do you know why Qi Muxue came to see you that day?"
"Why?" Luo Feng said.
Zhuo Ying bit her red lips lightly, remained silent for a moment, and said: "Qi Xiao is the daughter of King Qi, and King Qi belongs to King Jiang's faction."
"The reason why I came to you is because I noticed your talent and wanted to get you into Prince Jiang's shogunate."
Hearing the word faction, Luo Feng was also startled. He pondered for a moment and said: "Then Prince Jiang, is he at odds with you, Emperor Yan?"
He still remembered that when he first came to Yan Dynasty a month ago, he keenly discovered that there was a faint tit-for-tat trend between King Jiang and Yan King.
Zhuo Ying nodded slightly and said: "In the past, King Jiang helped me take revenge and help me rise to power. I thought he was loyal to me, but I didn't know that he just wanted to use me as a puppet, using my status as a royal family to coerce the emperor. Order the princes."
She narrowed her starry eyes, seeming to be caught up in a long memory, and said: "As a veteran of three dynasties, Prince Jiang has a strong foundation. When I first came to power, almost all the ministers in the dynasty were his people. During that time, even now Looking back, I still feel very bitter.”
Luo Feng suddenly became interested. He looked at the Flame Emperor with interest and said, "Then what."
Zhuo Ying's cheeks were a little cold, and a heart-stopping oppression spread across the air, and she said: "At that time, the profession of Star Card Master was not popular in the dynasty, but it was a noble and mysterious profession. Only children of nobles can practice."
"In order to fight against King Jiang's faction, I tried my best to popularize the way of Star Card, so that the Star Card Master is no longer a mysterious profession, so that children from poor families can also embark on the path of cultivation, so that poor families can rise and use A poor family versus a clan.”
"Nice criticism." Luo Feng thought to himself, still remembering that a certain big shot in the Three Kingdoms did the same thing, using a poor family to fight against the clan.
Zhuo Ying: "Because of this, I have reached the current situation, from an unsolvable situation to contending with King Jiang, but I can only barely resist."
Her long eyelashes flickered and she said, "Take the semi-finalists as an example."
"Qi Xiao comes from Prince Qi's Mansion."
"Mu Qingluan is from the Qingluan tribe."
"Huang Yan comes from Burning Flame Valley."
"Lin Yu comes from Ziyun Sect."
"Prince Jiang has won over the Qingluan Clan and Prince Qi's Mansion, while the Ziyun Sect is independent of the world and has nothing to do with the two. Behind me are Fenyan Valley and Prince Qi's Mansion, so a deadlock has formed."
Zhuo Ying rubbed the center of her brows, and a rare look of exhaustion appeared on her delicate and beautiful face, which was as smooth as jade.
Seeing this scene, Luo Feng felt slightly distressed. Regardless of her status as empress, she was just a girl. At her most beautiful age, she should have fallen in love with a handsome man like him and made love behind closed doors. Now, now But he bears the heaviest responsibility.
Zhuo Ying continued: "Now, both King Jiang and I know that the key to breaking the deadlock is the Four Pavilions."
"The younger generation of our Yan Dynasty will take up positions in the Four Pavilions after graduating from Holy Land College. If we can grasp the Four Pavilions, it will be equivalent to grasping the younger generation."
"The easiest way to control the Four Pavilions is to make the Chief Pavilion Master of the Four Pavilions ours."
There was a slight regret on Zhuo Ying's face: "It's just a pity that in these years, the younger generation of our Yan Dynasty has never appeared, a chief pavilion master who can truly convince the public."
After the voice fell, she stared at Luo Feng with her beautiful eyes, with a burning meaning deep in her eyes, and said: "And from you, I see hope."
"Me?" Luo Feng was stunned.
Zhuo Ying nodded slightly and said: "You have solid painting skills, a clear mind, and skillful routines. You also have a good talent for cultivation. If you can cultivate it, you will definitely not be an unknown person in the future."
The corners of her lips curled up in amusement, and she said, "As you said at the beginning, it is obvious that you are the one-in-a-kind, super star card master."
Luo Feng: "So the Flame Emperor wants to train me to become the chief pavilion master?"
"This is my idea, but you don't have to agree." Zhuo Ying stared at him and said, "If you don't agree, then you won't have any pressure and can live a Buddhist-style life freely and without interference. You can follow the instructions Live at your own pace and do happy things.”
"But if you agree, then the days to come may not be as peaceful as in the Outer Holy Land."
"You may be attacked by King Jiang's faction. Even though I'm here, they don't dare to do anything to you openly, let alone take your life. However, secret targeting is inevitable."
Zhuo Ying hesitated for a moment and said: "In addition, if I fail in this fight one day, you will not be able to escape death."
She raised her eyes and stared at Luo Feng: "Now, do you still want to fight for the chief pavilion master?"
Hearing this, Luo Feng was silent.
Indeed, during his time in the Outer Holy Land, he had no pressure and was happy every day. The reason why he worked so hard was just because he wanted to win.
In other words, even if he loses, it won't be a big loss for him.
He can definitely live a Buddhist-like life. In his spare time, he makes cards, goes out with star cards, plays games, and flirts with girls.
But once you embark on the road to fight for the chief pavilion master, you will join the Flame Emperor camp and get involved in the political whirlpool. You will be burdened with huge pressure. At the same time, you must be wary of the plots of the hostile camp. You must not make the wrong move in the future. step.
Luo Feng was silent for a moment and said, "Then, how can I become the chief pavilion master?"
Zhuo Ying: "The road for the Chief Pavilion Master is long. The current prerequisite is to win the Holy Land League Championship, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public."
"This year or next year?" Luo Feng asked.
Zhuo Ying was startled, then hesitated for a moment and said, "If you really want to fight, you can do it next year."
Luo Feng's eyes flickered. He could sense the reluctance behind Zhuo Ying's words. Can it be done next year?
The current situation is dire and there is no need to delay. How difficult is it to postpone it until next year?
But if he participates this year, it means that he has to bid farewell to his lazy Buddhist life and plunge into endless battles again.
Looking at Luo Feng in silence, Zhuo Ying said: "You make your own choice, consider your own factors, but you have to remember that no matter how you choose, I will not blame you for it."
"You are still my star card master."
As soon as the voice fell, Zhuo Ying suddenly stood up, leaning against a tree, holding a jade pot, sipping wine, and looking at the bright moon in the distance.
Luo Feng was silent for a moment, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on his delicate face, and he said, "Although I am an ordinary person, I still have a conscience. Everything I have today is given by the Flame Emperor."
With a serious look on his face, he bowed slightly towards Zhuo Ying and bowed respectfully:
"If we fail to win the Holy Land League championship this year, Luo Feng is willing to die to apologize."
Under the moonlight, Zhuo Ying's delicate body trembled inaudibly, and there were faint crystal tears swirling on her slender eyelashes.
After a long time, she turned around, Zhuo Ying sat down at the stone table, and said: "I have been working hard in this deep palace, hoping to find someone who meets the requirements. Unexpectedly, by some strange combination of circumstances, that person... It’s actually you.”
"Come, drink."
Luo Feng smiled and said, "I'll stay with you until the end."
Crash.
The clear wine is poured from the wine jar,
So, a man and a woman raised their glasses and clinked them together, making a crisp sound.
After three rounds of drinking, both of them became drunk.
Zhuoying's red lips were shiny, her beautiful eyes were slightly closed, and she said, "I haven't drank so much in a long time."
Her peach blossom eyes narrowed, as if she was caught in a long memory, and said: "Once upon a time, I listened to someone's story for three years."
"I live alone in the palace. When I first heard all this, I just found it interesting."
"However, it was three years ago when I first heard this story. The details were so real and the scene so familiar. In a daze, I almost believed it."
"I often wonder if I really have such a past. Otherwise, why would those words make me feel like I was there?"
"So, I asked someone to bring him here, eager to give me an answer face to face."
"But, he actually told me that all these were just rumors."
As the voice fell, Zhuo Ying's beautiful eyes were slightly in a trance. Perhaps because she drank too much, her body staggered and leaned back slightly.
Seeing this scene, Luo Feng was stunned for a moment. After hesitating for a few breaths, he mustered up the courage, stretched out his slender arms, and gently hugged the slender waist.
"Yan Huang, you are drunk."
Zhuo Ying did not struggle, her beautiful eyes were narrowed, her beautiful red face was leaning on Luo Feng's shoulder, and she had a voice that sounded like she was talking in her sleep, softly and inaudibly.
"If I were not drunk, where would you get the chance?"
"Carry me into the house."
