Chapter 281: Sunrise in the West
I don't know how much I drank, until the day waned, the shopkeeper personally ran upstairs: "Three guest officers, the shop is about to close, look ......?"
Zixian was already half-drunk and half-awake at this time, and was a little unhappy when he heard this, so he leaned on the table and muttered, "Closed? What's the deal? ”
The shopkeeper pointed out the window and said, "Guest officer, look, the sun is about to set, and the shop is not open at night." ”
"Falling mountain? Who let it fall? Zixian staggered to her feet with the strength of the wine, and Daji quickly supported her.
Zixian rubbed to the window and pointed to the sunset like a big golden-red orange: "Who let you fall down the mountain?" Three-legged golden crow, if you don't want to die, get up for me! ”
The shopkeeper was stunned, and said in his heart that this guest officer had really drunk too much, and he was talking nonsense.
But he has been running a restaurant for many years, what kind of person has he never met? There are people who are even more drunk than the one in front of him, so he didn't make a fuss, but just smiled and said: "Yes, yes, what the guest officer said is right, but today is too late, or the guest officer will ...... another day."
At this point, the shopkeeper could not go on, for he clearly saw that the afterglow of the sunset, which was leaking through the window, began to brighten up and rise at an angle.
The shopkeeper leaned over to the window in disbelief to take a look, but his jaw dropped at what he saw.
I saw that the sun, which was about to sink below the horizon, actually rose from the west, and became brighter and brighter, and after a while, the twilight quadrangle became a bright sun.
Not only the shopkeeper, but even Daji and Chanjuan were shocked by this scene. They originally thought that Zixian was just an immortal with very high mana, but they didn't expect her status to be so high. You must know that even the Jade Emperor does not dare to move the stars and change the sun at will.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he fell to his knees: "The villain doesn't know that you are a fairy, how offended, how offended......"
"Get up." As soon as Zixian's words fell, the shopkeeper's trembling body stood up involuntarily.
"Serve a few more dishes, and go get two more jars of wine, but don't mix them with water." Zixian commanded in a daze.
"Yes, yes! The villain will never dare to mix water in wine in the future. Immortals rest assured. After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he ran down with a smoke.
"Immortal, you ......" Daji wanted to speak and stopped.
Zixian waved his hand: "Don't worry about it, drink with me." ”
……
On the field path. The two farmers walked home with their hoes on their shoulders, chatting with each other.
The setting sun shone on them, pulling out long shadows and casting them on the ridges to the east.
"The day has passed again. Lao Li, come to my house for a drink? I asked my daughter-in-law to prepare two more side dishes. ”
The person called Lao Li scratched his head: "That's so embarrassing." Blame the troublesome sister-in-law. Why don't you go to my house? ”
Just as he was refusing, Lao Li suddenly found that the sunset on the horizon had risen again.
"Lao Chen, look, look at the sun......" Lao Li opened his mouth and pointed to the west, and his voice changed.
Lao Chen turned his head and his eyes widened in surprise.
It wasn't until the sun rose above his head that Lao Chen came back to his senses and muttered, "The sun really came out in the west!" ”
Lao Li looked in the direction of his home, and then looked at the field: "Then, should we go home?" ”
Lao Chen said: "Let's farm." Since ancient times, the sun rises and the sun sets, and since the sun has not yet set, let's continue to work. ”
"Hey, okay." Lao Li answered, and the two turned back to the field.
……
In the inner garden of the palace, an old eunuch held up a gold-painted red lacquer plate in front of Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, which lady's palace do you want to rest in tonight?" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang lazily flipped through the neatly arranged brands on the plate with the names of the mothers of each palace, looking a little tired.
For seven years, Zhu Yuanzhang has not accepted another concubine. These concubines were all canonized before, and they are already old and decrepit.
It's not that Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't want to find some young and beautiful women to accompany him. But although there are show girls entering the palace every year, no one can enter Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
Every time the official in charge of the draft will say that a certain woman is naturally beautiful and the country is charming, but when she looks at it in front of her, she will always disappoint Zhu Yuanzhang.
Is this also called natural beauty? This is also called the national color of the city?
Not even one ten-thousandth of the woman in white.
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knew that Zixian was an immortal. Therefore, there is no force to be able to find someone who looks exactly like Zixian.
But those women actually look like that, this is too far behind, right? Could it be that as the dignified king of a country, he is only worthy of these vulgar fans?
If Xiuying hadn't stopped him, Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to kill those officials in charge of the draft.
"Your Majesty?" The eunuch saw that Zhu Yuanzhang had not been elected for a long time, so he reminded him loudly.
Zhu Yuanzhang picked one up casually, and just wanted to speak. Suddenly, there was a bright light shining outside the window, so he threw down the sign and walked to the door.
The dazzling sunlight made Zhu Yuanzhang squint, and the gloom in his eyes was turbulent. The warm light shone on the old eunuch who came with him, but it made him shiver in horror.
"You're so daring! Now that the scorching sun is in the sky, you let me turn over the brand, do you want me to become a faint monarch who is obsessed with women? ”
The old eunuch was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the old slave has no such intention, and now it is indeed the time of the unitary ......."
"Dare to deceive me! When I am blind? You old slave, do you think I'm old and think I'm confused? Zhu Yuanzhang roared angrily.
The old eunuch broke out in a cold sweat. He has been in the palace for many years, and he knows that it is not appropriate to fight against him at this time, so he hurriedly begged for mercy one after another: "The emperor is angry, maybe the old slave is old and remembers the wrong time...... The emperor is gracious, for the sake of the old slave who has served you for many years, spare the old slave this time......"
Zhu Yuanzhang's face eased slightly: "You can remember the hour wrong, I think you are really old!" Let's go get twenty boards for myself. ”
The old eunuch hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him, and went tremblingly.
……
In the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, the Jade Emperor listened to the report of clairvoyance and Shunfeng Ear, and stood up suddenly.
"What? Are you telling the truth? ”
Clairvoyant knelt on one knee on the ground and arched his hand: "Back to the Jade Emperor, what the minister said is true, the minister did see the sun rising in the west." The minister also saw that countless birds and finches flew out after returning to the nest, and countless shops had already closed but opened their doors. ”
Shunfeng Er added on the side: "The minister also heard it, and countless mortals are discussing this matter. There are also some people who take the opportunity to spread rumors, saying that 'the sun rises in the west, and the world will be chaotic', and now people everywhere in the mortal world are panicking. ”
The Jade Emperor frowned, calmed himself down, and ordered: "You two go quickly to find out the cause of the matter, there must be no mistake!" ”
Clairvoyance and Shunfeng Ear both arched their hands: "The minister's decree!" ”
