Chapter 63: A Magical Visit
The Queen Mother is a cautious person, and to put it mildly is timid. Even if she became the queen mother, her temperament has not changed much, and she dare not change it.
She, the queen mother, and Situ Yun, the emperor, are far from being as glamorous as outsiders see, let alone the authority of the queen mothers of previous emperors.
Why? It's just because the Emperor Taishang is not dead.
At present, although the throne is passed on, the core rights of Yiqiē are still in the hands of the Emperor Taishang, as long as Situ Yun has a difference, he can be deposed again.
This is one of the few examples in history of willing Zen position, and it is an example of succession between father and son.
The Emperor Taishang has real power in his hands, although he is paving the way for Situ Yun step by step, but he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Situ Yun had a detailed discussion with Empress Dowager Chen on the first night of his accession to the throne.
The mother and son still need to rely on the orthodoxy of the Emperor Taishang at present, so they still need to look at the eyes of the Emperor Taishang to do things. Empress Dowager Chen didn't dare to be too much to the people around the emperor, and she hardly asked about the emperor's concubines such as Concubine Zhen. And Situ Yun also has a serious queen here, and her position as the queen mother in the harem is the most embarrassing.
The Emperor Taishang didn't need her to serve the Queen Mother, and he couldn't afford to use the Queen Mother, so he stayed away from the Queen Mother, who valued her son.
came and went, and Empress Dowager Chen also had a lot of complaints in her heart. The biggest point is that the position of the queen mother comes from Situ Yun and not the emperor.
If the Emperor Taishang is really a caring person, he only needs to promote Concubine Chen to the queen in advance, and then Situ Yunshun will succeed to the throne, which is a legitimate son-in-law. But letting Situ Yun be crowned the queen mother invisibly made Situ Yun's legitimacy completely dependent on the emperor. When the emperor was alive, he didn't dare to disobey his father's orders.
And this is what the Emperor Taishang expected early on, in order to prevent his future life from being blocked by the emperor.
With the power in hand, all the affairs have been handed over to others, and you just need to enjoy yourself with peace of mind.
As for the thoughts of Situ Yun's mother and son, no matter how they do, they don't dare to do anything to the emperor.
Empress Dowager Chen complained in her heart, but she didn't dare to speak out. It's just that after Situ Yun ascended the throne, he lived separately from Emperor Taishang. One is in Ningshou Palace, the other is in Taiji Pavilion, except for greeting every day, they are almost not in one place.
So the Empress Dowager Chen is very idle now, and the Emperor doesn't need her to worry about it, and those concubines are rushing to serve the Emperor. And there isn't much going on his son's side. Several concubines are still old people in the house, and the princess, who is now the queen mother, can control it herself, and she is not good at pointing fingers, so as not to be questioned by the emperor.
Sitting in his palace to pass the time, his eyes can only fall on another place. Urging the queen to give birth to a grandson for herself, and raising her own grandson can also kill the loneliness, right?
Another meaning of marrying Wei Qian is also here. In order to show filial piety and his dedication to the imperial business, Situ Yun is not ready to conduct a large-scale draft in the coming year.
The harem can't be filled, the heirs can't reproduce, and of course the Empress Dowager Chen is in a hurry. And if Wei Qian enters the palace, he can take this opportunity to match people in the team, and pick some female Baolin to enter the palace in the name of marriage. In this way, it is justifiable to fill the harem for Situ Yun, but Empress Dowager Chen has been plotting for a long time.
And Wei Qian is indeed clever and has the same temper as Empress Dowager Chen, which makes Empress Dowager Chen happy.
When Wei Qian mentioned the allusion of the Spring and Autumn Period, "Tan Li Dezhu", Empress Dowager Chen smiled and said: "Speaking of this ancient treasure Li Zhu, this palace doesn't know whether it is from Lilong, but its light is colorful, and it shines at night, it is indeed a strange treasure." With this bead, there is no need to light up at night. ”
Wei Qian's expression moved, and she was surprised: "Niangniang has seen Lizhu? ”
"There is a pearl in the Daming Palace." Empress Dowager Chen looked proud, and Wei Qian took the opportunity to beg to watch one or two, which undoubtedly satisfied Empress Dowager Chen's self-esteem of being left out in the cold.
Under the expansion, he didn't think too much, and personally took Wei Qian to a palace on the shore of Penglai Lake in Daming Palace.
The palace is made of red bricks and tiles, with no windows on all sides, and black cloth is dense and impermeable.
"This pearl is said to be a tribute from the Western Regions, and the night where this thing is located is like day. Therefore, Emperor Gaozu built the Tongming Hall to lock the Lizhu. ”
Empress Dowager Chen took Wei Qian's hand, and the two stood in front of the Tongming Palace, and immediately several female officials came out: "The minister visits the Queen Mother and the Lord of Jinling County." ”
These four female officials are the female historians of the Tongming Palace, and they are responsible for guarding Lizhu.
Empress Dowager Chen looked at the four of them, and said lightly: "The palace wants to take the county lord of Jinling to watch Lizhu, you can open the door." ”
Although the pearls are precious, they are not very interesting to look at for a long time. No one has come to the Tongming Hall for many years, and the so-called Lizhu is nothing more than a good treasure. There are many treasures of the same level that can be found in the Daming Palace.
Each of the four women has a key, and the four keys are combined to open the door. Suddenly, the five-colored brilliance escaped, and Wei Qian was very surprised: "It's the Li Dragon Ball, and the quality is higher than the two in my hand!" ”
Empress Dowager Chen took Wei Qian into the main hall, only to see a jade plate in the center, on which were placed five-colored dragon balls.
"The things produced by the black dragon never thought they would have such brilliance." Wei Qian praised it sincerely, and Empress Dowager Chen smiled: "No, this jewel is a treasure in Daming Palace, how can you see it outside?" ”
Wei Qian stared at the orb, thinking about how to get this orb, but didn't hear the meaning of Empress Dowager Chen's words.
Empress Dowager Chen had no choice but to say: "If you can accompany the palace in the palace every day, this kind of treasure can naturally be seen at any time." When the palace served the emperor at the beginning of the year, it was the same as you, and it was around Lizhu every day, until the days were long and I stopped thinking. ”
"The courtiers live in her grandmother's house these days, if the queen mother does not dislike it, she can come to the palace to chat with you every day."
"You girl!" The Queen Mother scolded with a smile: "How can you not hear the meaning of this palace's words according to your mind? This palace is asking when you will marry the emperor. The marriage contract between the two of you has also been for a few years, and now you have been filial, and it will not be beautiful after delaying it for too long. ”
"This ......" Wei Qian had no choice but to repeat what she had said to Lin Daiyu again: "How long can you show people with kindness and righteousness?" He is disgusted with his majesty, and there is nothing more than a wisp of fragrant soul in the harem, so why bother? ”
Empress Dowager Chen was also a son and daughter of Jiangnan, and she saw a lot of ups and downs in the harem because of the draft, and she was complicated and silent in her heart.
After a hasty look at Lizhu, Wei Qian took Empress Dowager Chen to talk about the past in the Imperial Garden, and gradually pulled Empress Dowager Chen's mind back.
"That's it, I know where this woman's heart is, and then ask the emperor what he thinks, if he can, he might as well match the two. Anyway, this girl looks more pleasing to the eye than the queen. ”
So, when the sunset drifted away, Empress Dowager Chen ordered someone to send Wei Qian out of the palace and rewarded a few royal cloths.
"This is a tribute from Suzhou Weaving, right?" Wei Qian returned to Jiafu and found Lin Daiyu: "Your sister and I have always disliked red cloth. On the contrary, although you are in the period of filial piety, you should also prepare for the future as early as possible. I see that Sanchun girl is dressed beautifully, and you will have to learn hard in the future. ”
took the red cloth to Lin Daiyu for comparison, and Lin Daiyu hurriedly excused herself: "In the end, it is still in the filial piety period, so it is not good to do this directly." ”
"But what about after filial piety?" Wei Qian disagreed: "It's not just you, but also Cousin Chaoyang." After all, he is the sister-in-law of the Lin Mansion, and the descendants left by Aunt Min cannot be treated worse than the concubines of the Jia Mansion. ”
Forced to stuff Lin Daiyu with two moire red cloths, and suddenly Wei Qian's face changed, and she looked at the door unconsciously.
"Sister?" Lin Daiyu felt that something was wrong with Wei Qian, and hurriedly asked.
"It's okay, you leave first, my sister suddenly remembered something." Wei Qian stared at the door, her brows furrowed, and Hongchun stepped forward to take Lin Daiyu away.
Lin Daiyu was confused, and only secretly ordered Zijuan to inform Wang Xifeng to see if something happened to Wei Qian?
"I don't know what to call this sister?" After Lin Daiyu left, Wei Qian lowered her face and looked at the red-clothed beauty standing at the door, her sleeves had already buttoned up her wishful magic weapon, ready to do it directly without saying a word.
"The concubine is a police illusion, and I have seen my sister." The woman was dressed as a woman, peerless, holding a bamboo basket, and looked at Wei Qian with a smile.
Alert Fairy!
Wei Qian's heart was shaken, this was where her dream demon was for many years!
Without saying a word, Lu Ruyi hit the police illusion, and at the same time squirted out a treasure bead from his mouth, and there were also two silver wires around the house at his fingertips.
The police illusion fairy has been enlightened for many years, and Wei Qian's attack was extinguished with laughter: "Why should my sister be angry? My sister knew that there were many mistakes in the past, so I deliberately came to make amends to my sister this time, and congratulated my sister on finding a lover. ”
Saying that, Shi Shiran sat down and handed the gift in the basket to Wei Qian: "Look, what is my sister's heart?" ”
"Lizhu?" Wei Qian's face changed, and the thing given by the police illusion fairy was a dragon orb from the jaw of the black dragon!
"My sister's wedding is bound to be in the Daming Palace, and my sister is inconvenient to come on the same day, so I sent a congratulatory gift in advance, hoping that my sister will erase the cause and effect of the past years, do you think it's good?" As he spoke, he seemed to be sad and apologetic, and the Heavenly Magic Law touched people's hearts, even Wei Qianren's immortal Daoxing had to disperse his anger, and his heart swayed.
When-
Suddenly, a sword roared, and a white-clothed figure appeared out of thin air, stabbing at the police fairy with a sword.
Immortal Gu Jade is like an orchid, flicking the sword to block Xuanyun's attack: "Sister Xuanning doesn't like the marriage I arranged for her, could it be that Sister Xuanyun doesn't like the lover I gave you?" ”
"Just a love thread wants to control my path?" Xuan Yun smiled coldly and stood beside Wei Qian with a sword. Just now, Wei Qian made a big fight, and took out his own Big Dipper Star magic weapon to immediately attract Xuanyun's attention. Worried that his junior sister would suffer, he simply came to help, but he didn't expect to see his own enemy.
The police illusion fairy used Xue Pan to toss Wei Qian, and also arranged a marriage for Xuanyun, but Xuanyun woke up early, and the Dao heart was not damaged but was even better.
Looking at the two sisters, the police fairy sighed in his heart: they are worthy of being the descendants of Lishan, and these two people are the only seeds of cultivation. If you can't destroy it as soon as possible, you will inevitably be robbed again in the future.
Her eyes rolled, and the fairy aunt relied on the Tao to isolate the outside world: "Sister Xuanyun is really anxious, my sister is just coming this time to congratulate Sister Xuanning on finding a husband and to congratulate them on their marriage." ”
"Marriage?" Xuanyun's words were cold: "Senior sister's Taoist heart is firm, and she has no intention of mundane things, where does the fairy aunt come from, where to go!" ”
"This is also what Sister Xuanning means?" The coercion belonging to the earth immortals filled the scene, Xuan Yun's face changed, and he hurriedly blocked in front of Wei Qian.
"That's it, since it's my sister's kindness, then I can't get married." Wei Qian saw the intention of the police fairy to go down to earth this time, and would rather threaten with force than force to make herself agree to this marriage. It's okay to be herself, Senior Sister Xuanyun is also here, you can't let her have an accident with her, right?
"Senior sister!" Xuanyun was in a hurry, and was about to speak, but saw Wei Qian come out from behind Xuanyun and pick up the Lizhu from the basket: "I accepted this congratulatory gift, and I will find a way to get the one in the Daming Palace again, presumably I can open the Lishan Holy Realm, right?" ”
"It's still my sister's interest. Then, my sister will tell you the whereabouts of a dragon again, and whether you can slaughter it or not depends on your ability. The police fairy told Wei Qian the location of a dragon in Nanyang, and Wei Qian was surprised and looked surprised.
Yes, dragons travel all over the world, and it is normal to have a dragon in the South Seas.
Accepting the Li Bead, the Ancient Alien Treasure Li Dragon Ball in the body spontaneously fused the Jewel with dragon qi.
The big stone in the heart of the police fairy fell, and after inheriting this cause and effect, Wei Qian would not worry about regretting it in the future.
"Oops!" The police illusion fairy suddenly slapped her head, pretending to be panicked and said, "I just remembered that if my sister marries a mortal, what will she do on this path of cultivation in the future?" ”
Xuan Yun watched the police fairy sing a one-man show, and held the sword in his hand again.
Wei Qian hurriedly pressed her and signaled to be calm. Then, he turned his head and laughed at the police illusion fairy girl: "I know what the fairy girl is doing here. I think that the fairy girl risked violating the rules of heaven to go down to earth, not just to toss my marriage, right? ”
"So-" Wei Qian's eyes were cold: "Let's make a bet to see if I can still strengthen my heart after rolling in this red dust and struggling in the harem." If I see through the love and one step into the immortals, he will beat you down from reincarnation one day and taste the suffering of the red dust of the tenth world. And if I fail, you can step on my bones to cut off your own obsession and completely enter the Heavenly Immortal Avenue. Presumably this is the reason why the fairy aunt has repeatedly made trouble! ”
The police fairy is silent, yes, it is precisely because she is obsessed that she must understand. And the stronger the obsession, the stronger the feedback under the clear Dao heart after that. I have been cultivating for thousands of years, and whether I can ascend to the Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit depends on this step.
Or, Wei Qian preached, Royal Dragon Flying Immortal. Or, the police illusion immortal Gu borrowed the power of Wei Qian's failure to preach the immortals.
"My sister is really bold! Throughout the ages, my sister has been used to seeing those who are infatuated, and there are indeed few people like my sister. However, the harem is dirty, and it is not easy for you to see through the red dust and prove that you are flying immortals. ”
"Heaven and earth are a mirror, I Wei Qian into the sea of pain of red dust, the dark palace of love. If he thinks emotionally every day, and his Dao heart is damaged, he will suffer from the pressure of the five mountains, and the three mountains of Yongzhen will turn into powder and his soul will fly and annihilate! Word by word, Wei Qian stared at the police fairy and swore a big oath, even the police fairy was stared at by Wei Qian's gaze.
"At the price, though. Something is coming at me, and it has nothing to do with my senior sister. I'll play this gamble with you! Let's see who of us can attain the Tao after a hundred years! ”
"Good! What a heroine, my sister is in the sea of sorrow to see how you climb out of the harem again! A gust of red wind dispersed, and the police fairy came to another mansion in Chang'an.
This is the residence of the four princes, and now although the dragon has failed, the support of Buddhism is still there. As a descendant of Guanyin Temple, Wuhai meditated in the small Buddha hall at the back. Suddenly, the incense breeze blew into the Buddhist hall, and the police fairy appeared: "This little master, the concubine has an important matter here that I want to ask the master to do." ”
Wu Hai's Taoism has soared over the years, and his eyes are like torches, and he can see at a glance that this woman is not an extraordinary person but from the heavenly realm. Recited a sentence of Amitabha: "The donor is from the Nine Heavens Golden Gate, and he has great magical powers, so I don't know if there is anything that needs the help of the little monk?" ”
"The concubine made a bet with Xuanning's sister that she had sworn to be limited to heaven's punishment. Now he asked the little master to help build a Three Mountains and Five Mountains Tower, and if his sister Xuanning broke her oath, he also asked the little master to personally turn her into powder under the suppression of the Mountain Divine Tower. The Vigilant Fairy had a fierce face, and a burst of heavenly demon aura rioted, looking at Monk Wuhai and frowning.
"Xuanning? Wei Qian's girl? ”
The police fairy bowed: "Yes, the concubine knows that the little master has something to do with her, so she asks the master to take action." As he spoke, he dropped the money and disappeared again.
