The Sword Dynasty - 489. Chapter 488

It is said that it used to be cold, but it was really cold.

Changling’s autumn mood this year seems to be stronger than in previous years, and the autumn wind is also cooler.

The maids in the palace have changed their dresses with thin cotton-padded jackets. They are walking in the palace with lanterns in the early morning, their hands are still cold.

Empress Zheng Xiuduan sat behind the desk in the study room in the depths of the palace, facing the spirit spring filled with white spiritual energy.

There is a hundred steps between her and this spiritual spring, so her study room looks very empty, or… lonely.

Ever since she put on the crown and sat on the throne of the Queen of the Qin Dynasty, she has been so lonely by her side, and it seems that there is no change in peace today.

However, she sits here quietly, her thoughts and perceptions are straight up into the sky, going upstream through the starlight that is hardly noticeable by the world in the daytime, and reaching the endless emptiness that the eyes can hardly reach.

The starlight turned into pale sparks in her perception, falling continuously in the void.

From the intangible to the tangible, and then to nothing, constantly changing.

Some starlight, originally always fell on the largest sword in the world.

However, before that, a dark cloud appeared in her perception, blocking the starlight falling on that sword.

When the dark clouds dissipated, she could no longer perceive the existence of that sword.

Many years ago, she believed that Gu Huai stood firmly by her and Yuan Wu’s side because Gu Huai let go of the vitality of this sword and accepted her starlight.

This sword merged with her will.

As long as Gu Huai’s vitality is there, she can always perceive the existence of this sword, and thus feel what happened to this sword.

But now she could no longer perceive this sword, which meant that Gu Huai’s vital energy had completely dissipated, and Gu Huai had died.

Who in this world can kill Gu Huai?

Is that Tianliang person named Zhan Maha?

None of this seemed important to her state of mind at this moment.

The most important thing is that there is one less person beside her.

Even if the people standing next to her just succumbed to the will of her and Yuanwu, or have their own personal goals, when one person’s path gets longer and longer, all the people around her disappear one by one, this feeling becomes It’s true loneliness.

A young man in a pale yellow robe appeared on the road outside her study, slightly bowing his head respectfully.

There are many young people in the palace, but apart from Huang Zhenwei, no one can have such a respectful but not humble and humble attitude in front of her.

The queen condensed her thoughts, stood up, walked past the white spirit spring, and walked not far in front of him.

Hearing her footsteps, Huang Zhenwei, who was standing with his head down, felt nervous and restrained for the first time. It was not because of fear, but because he was still not sure what emotion he would face.

He did not appear unnatural, but his heart was unprecedented unnatural.

“For your teacher, are you dissatisfied with my decision?” Without any extra words, the queen looked at him and asked calmly.

Huang Zhenwei was silent for a moment, and said, “It’s dissatisfaction.”

Regarding the attitude and answer of the chief, the queen was not surprised, and even showed some satisfaction in her eyes. Then she raised her head slightly and said, “Don’t forget that I made him your teacher. ”

Huang Zhenwei took a deep breath, but didn’t know how to exhale this breath or how to answer.

“Actually, your teacher may not be satisfied with me for many things I have done.”

The queen said quietly and slowly: “But I let you follow him at the end, just to make you understand…whatever choices he and I make, it’s just for the Great Qin Dynasty to move forward more securely.”

Huang Zhenwei was silent for a while, and then said: “I understand.”

The queen also looked at him, was quiet for a moment, and said, “You should also understand what your teacher and I expect of you.”

Huang Zhenwei knew the meaning of her words, and said again: “I will naturally choose the same as my teacher, and everything is important to the Great Qin Dynasty.”

The expression of satisfaction in the queen’s eyes was even stronger, and she said softly: “Your teacher must have passed the guarding sword to you.”

Huang Zhenwei shook his head and said: “The teacher did not pass the guarding sword to me.”

The queen was suddenly startled, frowning, “No?”

Huang Zhenwei said: “No.”

“Do you not want you to stay still on those turrets?”

The queen was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed, and said, “Perhaps he is the same as I thought, this Changling needs a city wall after all.”

Huang Zhenwei’s body shook slightly, and she already said, “In this case, you will supervise the construction of the city wall and start construction this winter.”

Huang Zhenwei had heard what she meant in the first sentence, but at this time he still felt a little unbelievable and raised his head.

The queen saw the look in his eyes, but her face was still indifferent and not like a human woman. She lightly said: “All changes must first change only the rules and habits. When the habits are changed, they will understand that nothing is impossible. Those who change will know how to accept the will of this dynasty.”

Huang Zhenwei hesitated for a moment, and said, “It will make many people feel imprisoned.”

“Then you have to know more about restraint.”

The queen laughed, her smile was perfect, she did not even mix any extra emotions, “The biggest role of the city wall is not to resist foreign enemies, but to divide boundaries, and those who know how to restrain and accept the will of the dynasty come in. Those who understand will be excluded and be treated differently.”

Huang Zhenwei lowered his head.

He is a true gentleman in the eyes of anyone, and if he does not express different opinions, it represents obedience and execution.

The queen was more satisfied and said: “You will witness the glory of this dynasty.”

“But that may not be what I want.”

“You let me see my teacher’s choice because you thought that the teacher would teach me what choices to make, but you don’t know. Before the teacher was dying, he let me choose.”

However, she didn’t know that this was what she thought in the heart of the young chief with her head down at this time.

…

…

“What are you going to do with this sword?”

Shen Xuan looked at Ding Ning and asked.

The clouds and fog surrounding Zu Mountain are slowly dissipating. Although the bloody aura is still strong, the blue sky is cleaned by the unparalleled wind and rain sword intent, especially the fresh sunlight begins to really spill down to the bottom of Zu Mountain.

Wu Lianzi knelt on the ground, calling Ding Ning his teacher, but Ding Ning’s gaze at this time fell on the huge sword mountain sword embedded in the mountain wall.

The Jianshan sword is the largest and heaviest sword in the world, and the sword itself is also one of the strongest and most powerful swords in the Bashan sword field.

Looking at Ding Ning’s gaze at this time, he knew that Ding Ning must not want to throw this sword away from here.

“Take this sword away.”

Ding Ning turned his head to look at him, and said, “I will tell you how to use this sword, and at the same time I will give you the Xu Tian Shen Jue to bring you back to Changling.”

Shen Xuan raised his brows slightly and did not thank him.

Before he said the next sentence, Ding Ning’s gaze had fallen behind Li Xixing.

“This thing is not for you.”

He looked at what Li Xixing was carrying and said.

Li Xixing turned his head.

He has been carrying that very strange crystal pillar.

Those Zergs that lived in this crystal column almost killed all the practitioners who had previously wanted to enter the Ancestral Mountain.

Listening to Ding Ning’s words at this moment, he was not disappointed, but rather curiously asked, “Is this thing really useful?”

“This is Tianyoujing.”

Ding Ning said: “It is also the thing that falls from a meteorite outside the sky, like the iron. It is one of the most hard and unbreakable spars in the world. The most important thing is to let the light refract for a long time before it finally emits.”

“Let the light refract for a long time before it comes out?” Li Xixing and Hu Jingjing realized what at the same time, they were all stunned.

“Sunlight and most starlight mean warmth and vitality.” Ding Ning continued, “The ability to store light can provide warmth and vitality for some things.”

After a pause, Ding Ning looked at Li Xixing and Hu Jingjing, and said, “In the old days, this kind of meteorites have also landed in the sky. It was just that they were made into art tools at the time, not this kind of strangeness. Worms maintain their vitality and restrain their size.”

Li Xixing finally determined who this thing should belong to. He simply removed the spar he was carrying and handed it to Hu Jingjing, “Yours.”

Hu Jingjing was a little flattered, but looking at the spar that didn’t fit her body, she couldn’t help feeling aggrieved, and said softly, “Can’t you help me carry it first?”

Li Xixing frowned, but after all he didn’t say anything, he just carried the spar that had just been unwound.

Ding Ning looked at the two of them and couldn’t help but smile slightly, then he turned to look at Shen Xuan, and said softly: “Gu Huai is dead, she will be more lonely, and you will become more important when you return to Changling. .”

Shen Xuan finally asked the question he wanted to ask just now, “What about you?”

“When I’m dead.”

Ding Ning looked at everyone like him and Li Xixing, including Wu Lianzi, who was struggling to get up, “So I need all of you to help me perform this play well, so that people can be sure that I am dead.”
