Chapter 49: Eyeliner

Lu Yuan hadn't spoken much all the time, and at this time he also said: "Sister, the battle with the True Demon Sect, I am also here, the monks of the True Demon Sect are indeed higher in combat effectiveness than our ordinary monks, but they are still not as high as me." ”

Mei Chaofan laughed and said, "Naturally, they are compared to what you don't have." If we have your support this time, I'm afraid we won't be able to win so easily. ”

Lu Yao said: "It's good to know the gap." Let's take it slowly. Okay, that's it here. Xiaoyuan and I are going to the palace. Meet our big sisters. ”

For this former Empress of Chu, Mei Chaofan also knows. He naturally understood, so he sent Lu Yao and Lu Yuan away.

Lu Yao and Lu Yuan flew directly to the palace. As soon as he entered his palace, Lu Yao asked the palace maid to tell the emperor that she was here, and there was no need to invite the queen over, so she directly invited the eldest princess and the second princess to enter the palace.

Lu Yao's palace maid was busy ordering. Although Lu Yao has only come to the palace once in a long time, Lu Yao's palace maid does not dare to slack off even the emperor and the queen. Very polite to her.

Therefore, Cuiliu lives very comfortably in the palace, even more comfortable than those favorite concubines. Lu Yao also once asked her if she wanted to leave the palace. She thought about it for a while, if she left the palace, she would just be an ordinary woman, and her family would be unreliable for a long time. Moreover, he is also older, in his twenties, and it is already past the good time to get married. lived a glorious and wealthy life in the palace, and suddenly became an ordinary person, she was really not used to it. It's better to live like this now.

Therefore, she told Lu Yao that she would stay in the palace. Help Lu Yao take care of the affairs in Lu Yao's palace.

Lu Yao actually doesn't need people to take care of these things, but since Cuiliu doesn't want to leave the palace, then that's it. Whatever she wants. Lu Yao also knew that the palace maids who left the palace basically had no good end.

Cuiliu instructed her palace maids and eunuchs to do these things. She was busy serving Lu Yao, pouring tea for Lu Yao and Lu Yuan, and serving her snacks.

Can Lu Yao still care about these mortal teas and snacks now? Therefore, Lu Yao said to Cuiliu: "Okay, don't be busy." You sit down, while the emperor has not yet come, can you tell me about the recent situation in the palace? ”

Cuiliu hurriedly dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, told them to wait outside, and then said to Lu Yao: "Your Royal Highness Princess, there are many more concubines in the palace now. Most of them are women from the Chu State. There are princesses of Chu State, county lords of Chu State, and noble ladies of Chu State. As soon as these women of the Chu State entered the palace, they pinched with the concubines of the Jin State. Now it's a lively fight. ”

"In the past, it was the nobles of the Yu State who fought with the nobles of the Jin Kingdom, and now the nobles of the Yu Kingdom are watching under the constraints of the queen's mother, and the nobles of the Jin Kingdom and the nobles of the Chu State are fighting. The two noble concubines of our Mei family and the Cang family, one who helped the noble daughter of the Jin State and the other who helped the noble daughter of the Chu State, were also involved in these struggles. ”

Lu Yao smiled helplessly. Lu Yuan shook his head and said, "Why don't the women in the palace stop?" Brother has so many women who don't know if they are tired or not? ”

Lu Yao hurriedly took this opportunity to educate Lu Yuan and said, "This is because there is only one emperor." Fortunately, you are now a cultivator. If you are still sitting as the emperor of Yu Kingdom, I am afraid that you will be the one who is anxious now. Think about it, in a palace of Nuoda, there is only one man in it, a group of concubines are fighting for you with red eyes, and all kinds of frame-ups are endless. Can you still have a peaceful life? ”

Lu Yuan couldn't help but shudder when he thought about that scene. It's horrible.

Lu Yao saw that this education was very effective, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said, "Xiaoyuan, you will not be able to find a Taoist partner until at least the Dan period in the future." It's also for spiritual practice. Of course, you're still young. If you find a Taoist couple, you must remember that although we also have three wives and four concubines in the cultivation realm, it is all because there is no possibility of progress. That's what a monk would do. You have a great future, but you can't. If you meet a girl you like, you'll be good to her wholeheartedly. ”

"I can allow my brother to have seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courts, but you are not allowed to do this, you must only live as a monogamous person, remember?"

Lu Yuan hurriedly said, "Got it." It's like my sister and brother-in-law, isn't it? Sister, isn't it a little early for you to tell me this now? ”

Lu Yao thought in his heart, there are some things that need to be educated as soon as possible.

Lu Yao turned his head to Cuiliu and said, "Do you know the situation outside the palace? What is the distribution of power in the imperial court? ”

Cuiliu is also capable, she also knows that Lu Yao doesn't need her to serve at all now, and she has a lot of gold, silver and jewelry for her, so she only has one function, which is to listen to the news, so she also has some eyeliner outside the palace, and knows a lot about the court and the affairs of Yu Guo.

Cuiliu hurriedly said: "I have written down the situation here regularly, and I have kept it secretly." Wait for me to fetch it to the princess. ”

Lu Yao nodded. Cuiliu hurriedly went to get a box of red gold inlaid with jade coral and handed it to Lu Yao.

Lu Yao opened it, and inside was a neat stack of papers. Lu Yao's divine sense is now powerful, and he can see all these clearly. She casually handed the box to Lu Yuan, and Lu Yuan could see it clearly at once.

Lu Yao took out the paper inside and put it in his storage ring, then returned the box to Cuiliu and said, "You did a good job." I've got it. What else do you need? Need gold and silver jewelry? It also costs a lot to understand these messages, right? ”

Cuiliu hurriedly knelt down and said, "Princess, I haven't spent all the jewels you gave me last time?" Besides, in our palace, all the uses are the best, better than the queen's. Also, the emperor has always given you a salary, which is higher than the queen's. It's like the prince's money, and you don't need it, so naturally I'll keep it. These are used to find out the news, and there is no end to it. ”

As soon as Lu Yao stretched out his hand, the spiritual power helped Cuiliu up, and she said, "Okay, then I won't give you anything." You're doing a great job. Well, a lot of people came, and it seems that the emperor has arrived. ”

Cuiliu hurriedly put away the box and stood at the door to greet the emperor.

After a while, the emperor came in. The siblings met and exchanged pleasantries. Lu Yao asked the emperor's brother to sit down. She found that the emperor was refreshed and full of red light, and she knew that although there were a lot of things in Yu Country recently and there were many concubines in the palace, it seemed that the emperor's brother was dealing with it very well.

The emperor glanced at Cuiliu quietly. Cuiliu lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to the eye. However, the emperor had received a report from the eunuch before, saying that Cuiliu was alone with the princess, and the emperor had been talking in the hall for a while. It can be seen that the emperor's guess before was not wrong, although this Cuiliu is a palace maid, she is the eyeliner left by Lu Yao. The emperor also knew that Cuiliu also had eyeliner outside the palace, and even some courtiers were very close to Cuiliu. The emperor didn't care. It's also a good thing for my sister to know about this.

It seems that it will be better for Cuiliu in the future.

The emperor thought so, but Lu Yao spoke to the emperor first.

Lu Yao asked: "Brother, this Yu country is becoming more and more prosperous under your leadership." ”

The emperor hurriedly said, "This is not the help of my younger brothers and sisters. If it weren't for you, without the Xishan Immortal Gate, would we be able to defeat both the Jin Kingdom and the Chu State so quickly? ”

Lu Yao asked, "How is the pacification of the Chu State doing?" When will our army set out to attack the kingdom of Shuiyin? When the time comes, I can't come. However, I want to ask Xiaoyuan to bring the monk over. At least when I conquered the Shuiyin Kingdom Palace, I wanted to ask Xiaoyuan to go in person. Although monks cannot participate in mortal wars. However, it was still okay for Xiao Yuan to just go to the Shuiyin Kingdom Palace to take revenge on their ancestral hall after conquering it. ”

At the mention of the hatred of his parents, Lu Yuan's eyes turned red.

Emperor Lu Jin also knew that destroying the Shuiyin Kingdom was an obsession in the hearts of Lu Yao and Lu Yuan. So he said, "There's no problem with this." Although the state of Chu has just been attacked, it is full of confusion. However, it did not affect the departure of the army. Because we have accumulated experience in appeasing Jin Guo before. The courtiers were familiar with the work and carried out their work in an orderly manner. It does not affect the opening of the army. Besides, the main forces of Shuiyin and other countries have actually been wiped out in the battle against Chu State. Now, only the remnants of their country are left, and when our army arrives, it is estimated that it will not take much to conquer it. ”

"I heard from my uncle that this time we are not only going to conquer the Shuiyin Kingdom, but also take down the surrounding Qi Kingdom, Shangshi Kingdom, Tang Kingdom, and Lin Kingdom together in one go?"

Lu Yao nodded and said, "Yes." After these countries are taken down, it is estimated that they will have to rest for a while. Further away countries, it depends on how the immortal battle of our Baiyu Lake is going. “

Although Lu Jin didn't understand the rules of the cultivation realm, his uncle Mei Chaofan had explained it to him in detail before, so he also understood.

Emperor Lu Jin said: "The three countries of Shuiyin, Qi, and Shangshi are easy to manage, and their countries have no troops. Attacks can be taken down without much effort. However, although the cultivators of the Tang Kingdom and the Lin Kingdom did not interfere, their countries would definitely resist. So, it takes time and effort. I discussed this matter with the ministers, and everyone thought that the Shuiyin Kingdom, the Qi Kingdom, and the Shangshi Kingdom were estimated to be able to take it in a year. ”

"However, it will take at least three years for those two countries to be defeated. After the fight, we expanded so fast that it took a while to reorganize. In my opinion, it will take at least ten years of work. ”

Lu Yao nodded and said: "In more than ten years, it is estimated that we can also take down the Flying Fish Family, even if we can't take it down, it is estimated that the Flying Fish Family will be at the end of the strong crossbow at that time, and there is no energy to take care of mortal affairs." ”

The emperor was about to say something, when suddenly Cuiliutong said: "Eldest princess, the second princess is here." (To be continued.) )
