Chapter Sixty-Seven: Fairy Island

Zhao Size was called to hurry to Ningfeng Garden, Mao Lingfeng and Zhao Rufeng both stepped forward to salute, Zhao Size was startled, and hurriedly returned the salute, not daring to call.

Zhao Siman stepped forward and took Zhao Size and said, "Big brother, do you say that there is a Penglai Island in our place, and is there a medicine fairy living on the island, who can cure all diseases." ”

Zhao Size nodded, "Yes, it is a medicine immortal, and it is said that an elixir can cure all diseases." ”

Mao Lingfeng was overjoyed and asked, "That's true." ”

Zhao Size pondered for a long time, "I heard that people say that this is the case, but." ”

Zhao Rufeng asked hurriedly: "But what, say it quickly." ”

Zhao Size somehow opened his mouth and said: "But I heard that there are more than 9,000 steps on Penglai Island, and it must be three steps and one bow, nine steps and one kowtow, and climb 9,999 steps." Only the medicine fairy is willing to heal and give medicine. In twenty years, no one has been able to climb 9,999 steps. It is said that ten years ago, a woman gritted her teeth and climbed 6,000 steps for three days and three nights for her paralyzed husband and fainted on the ground, and the medicine fairy ordered someone to give him a pill. There is also six years ago, a filial son treated his mother's illness, and it took three days and three nights to climb 6,800 steps, and it was difficult to move an inch. The medicine fairy also gave him a pill. Since then, no one has been able to climb the five thousand steps, and no one has asked for the elixir. ”

Mao Lingfeng asked with a solemn face, "Then did the elixir of the two of them cure the disease?" ”

Zhao Size nodded and said, "I heard that the medicine has been cured, and the husband and mother of the two have been cured, and they are fine now." ”

Mao Lingfeng said with a resolute face: "I must climb up and ask for a pill." ”

Zhao Size was startled and said: "There are more than 9,000 steps, no one has ever been able to climb up, you really want to try." ”

Mao Lingfeng smiled and said, "I was going to Zhao Kingdom, how could I not try." ”

"You're going to Zhao Kingdom, why." Zhao Size was surprised.

Zhao Siman shook his arm and said, "Brother, they are our eldest cousin and second cousin, and they are the daughters of Aunt Pingxi. ”

"What, Aunt Pingxi's daughter." Zhao Size looked at them carefully. "I haven't seen Aunt Pingxi, so I don't know what she looks like. However, when I was young, I heard my mother say that my aunt was the first beauty in the capital at that time. It's a pity that the face is thin. When my father found my aunt, she had already gone with my uncle. Zhao Size asked suspiciously: "You are really my aunt's daughter, my cousin." ”

Zhao Siman repeated what Hexiang said. Zhao Size looked at the jade pendant and said, "I'll take you back to my father and grandmother." See what they say. Whether it is or not, I welcome you to Zhao as a guest. ”

Mao Lingfeng nodded, I also have to go back and ask my mother, whether it is or not, I have to go to Penglai Island.

Zhao Ize saw that she was resolute, so he stopped persuading her.

Li Chengkun ordered a banquet and invited Lord Shangshu into the palace, confirming what Hexiang said. Zhao Rufeng is an adopted daughter, not a biological child.

So Li Chengkun left Zhao Siman and Zhao Size in the palace, and Shangshu and his wife left and returned home.

The next day, when the post-sealing ceremony began, Mao Ling took Zhao Rufeng's hand and put her in Li Chengkun's big palm, stared at the two and said, "May you love each other and grow old together." ”

Li Chengkun said with a heavy face: "Don't worry! Lone will not fail her. ”

Mao Lingfeng smiled, "Big brother has a promise, Feng'er can't believe it." ”

Li Chengkun led Zhao Rufeng into the altar, and after the sacrifice, he stood on the high platform to accept the worship of hundreds of officials and civilians.

Mao Lingfeng stood by and watched all this, and smiled with relief, it's good that a lover will eventually become a family.

The Minister of Martial Arts in the audience looked at the two similar women on the high platform, one in front and one behind, and was amazed, and the people also exchanged ears and discussed.

After Mao Lingfeng finished the ceremony, Panheng bid farewell to Li Chengkun and Zhao Rufeng for three days, and Zhao Ize and the two brothers and sisters said goodbye together.

After Mao Lingfeng sent them on the ship, he left the Jin State Mission, took Zhiqi and Li Chengyong and his party of three people, urged the horses to raise their whips, hurried day and night, and hurried back to the capital. Beat the horse and go straight to the Zhenguo Mansion.

Chen saw his daughter in the backyard and broke in with a fire, and couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Feng'er, what's wrong with you, what's wrong." ”

"Mother." Mao Lingfeng wanted to speak and stopped.

Chen retreated, and Mao Lingfeng knelt on the ground. Chen was startled and hurriedly tried to help her up.

Mao Lingfeng broke free of Chen's hands, kowtowed respectfully, and called in an astringent voice: "Mother, my daughter's current affairs are unknown, please tell my mother truthfully." ”

Seeing her solemn face, Chen helped her up and asked, "Mother will tell you something." ”

Mao Lingfeng looked at Chen, took off the jade pendant around his neck, handed it to Chen, and said slowly: "My daughter saw Queen Xiyi in Xiyi that she looked exactly the same as her daughter, and she also had a jade pendant hanging around her neck, which was a dragon and a phoenix with her daughter, and it could be combined into one, and there was also a birthmark on her right waist that was exactly the same as her daughter." ”

Chen was stunned when he heard this: "There is such a thing." ”

Mao Lingfeng hesitated for a moment, and said word by word: "My daughter wants to ask her mother, am I really your biological daughter?" ”

Chen was silent for a moment, looked up at Mao Lingfeng and said, "Since you asked like this, there must be a reason, and I won't hide it from you." ”

I had a difficult birth when I gave birth to your eldest brother, and I came back from walking in the ghost gate, so that I could not get pregnant, and I met a woman on the way back from a trip to worship the Buddha, and she was seriously injured and dying, and I carried you in my arms, who was less than a full moon, and I carried the woman into the carriage out of kindness, and the woman had to entrust you to me before she died. And when I had buried her, I brought thee into the house, and thy father was very pleased, and we treated thee as our own. It's not that I deliberately hide it from you, but I don't want you to be wronged. Regarding your life experience, the woman didn't have time to say more, just said that you were noble, and she choked her breath. So I don't know who your parents are either.

When Mao Lingfeng heard this, she already understood in her heart, she knelt down again and kowtowed three times and said: "Mother is Feng'er's biological mother, Feng'er is her mother's biological daughter, no matter who Feng'er's biological parents are in the future, and no matter Feng'er's status, her daughter will always be the daughter of Zhenguo Gong."

Chen took Mao Lingfeng's hand and asked, "Then do you know your background now?" ”

Mao Lingfeng nodded tearfully and explained in detail about Xiyi's confession. Chen was shocked after hearing this, and said: "Feng'er is talented and intelligent, and she is noble, no wonder, it turns out that she is a descendant of the royal family of Zhao State." No wonder the woman said you are noble. ”

"What a noble status." Mao Xuqi just came in and asked.

Mao Lingfeng hurriedly saluted, just wanting to speak.

"Feng'er, you're back." Sima Shun rushed in like a gust of wind and hugged her.

Mao Lingfeng's face turned red, leaned on his broad chest and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?" ”

"You're all back, of course I'm coming, who did you just say is noble." Sima Shun pecked her on the face, stared at her and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to come back, your little face is gone, and your face is a lot haggard, is something happening?" ”

Mao Lingfeng nodded and said, "Something happened, I'll talk to you in detail when I go back." ”

Sima Shun joked: "Feng'er is still considerate, and she knows that she is worried about her husband." ”

Mao Lingfeng glanced at him, and the two said goodbye to Chen and Mao Xuqi, Mao Lingfeng said to Chen: "I'm tired of my mother and tell my father." ”

Chen nodded, "Go back quickly, I'm tired on the way, take a good rest, don't worry." ”

Mao Xuqi saw the two walking away and asked, "What's wrong, what's going on?" Chen sighed and told Mao Lingfeng about it.

Mao Xuqi asked, "In this way, Feng'er is planning to go to Zhao Kingdom." Chen nodded, "Feng'er is a descendant of the royal family of Zhao State, of course she has to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors." ”

Sima Shun put his arm around Mao Lingfeng, and the two rode back to the palace together. Sima Shun looked at his wife, who had lost a lot of weight, and said distressedly: "Look at the fact that you finally raised a little meat, went to Xiyi, and it was gone, what is it that makes you rush back in such a hurry." After speaking, he sniffed and said: "You haven't taken a bath for many days, it's mostly sweat and dust, go wash and eat." ”

Mao Lingfeng's face turned red, and he rushed all the way back, but he hadn't washed it for more than ten days, and he smelled of sweat. No wonder Sima Shun said this, so Fei also seemed to run into the bath.

After Mao Lingfeng finished washing, Zhuo Zishang had already set up a hot meal. The two were sticky and fed each other.

Mao Lingfeng felt tired and fell asleep on the bed. When Sima came out after washing, he saw that she was already asleep.

Sima Shun straightened the messy hair on her head, lowered his head and kissed her, but he didn't quarrel with her, and fell asleep unconsciously with his arms around her.

In the early morning of the next day, Mao Lingfeng looked at her sleeping husband beside her, she rubbed her back to him and continued to sleep in his arms, but Sima Shun was heated by her whole body, and couldn't help but gag her mouth, and her big hand went all the way down.

Mao Lingfeng's body was weak, and he stretched out his hands to wrap around his neck. A deep lovesickness is put into action.

When Mao Lingfeng woke up again, he was already on the third pole of the day, and found that the man next to him was looking at him with his eyes open, and he couldn't help blushing, and pushed him and said, "What are you thinking!" All woke up, why don't you go to the barracks. ”

Sima Shun looked at his shy wife, lowered his head and kissed him, and said in a low voice: "I'm thinking that Feng'er is rushing back day and night, do you miss me too much?" Is it that I am not by your side, I am not used to it, or I am lonely. ”

"you, don't stink, I'm in a hurry to come back because I have something to ask my mother."

"What's the matter, to be in such a hurry, I thought I was in such a hurry because I missed me! It turned out that I was self-inflicted. Sima Shun pretended to be lost.

Seeing his look of loss, Mao Lingfeng put his arms around his neck with his backhand and whispered: "I miss you too, I also have something to ask my mother, half and a half!" ”

"Really." Sima Shun's eyes lit up and asked, "What's going on, tell me quickly." ”

Mao Lingfeng sighed, and briefly explained the future situation.

Sima Shun put his arm around her and asked, "So, you want to go to Zhao Kingdom." ”

Mao Lingfeng nodded, "Now that I know, I have to go anyway!" And the main thing is that I want to go to Penglai Island and try my luck. ”

"What, you want to climb more than nine thousand steps, do you know what you're talking about? Regardless of whether this thing is true or not, can you climb more than 9,000 steps? Is there still a life to climb up? I don't agree with you going to Zhao State. Sima Shun said angrily.

Mao Lingfeng lowered her head and was silent, Sima Shun couldn't help but have a headache when she saw that it was difficult for her to change the master. Raised her head and said: "You want to go to Zhao Kingdom to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, I don't object, it's just that going to Penglai Island is just a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not, I really don't want you to suffer any more harm, understand?" Children's affairs, you really don't take it to heart, I just want to spend my life with you in this life and this life, why don't you understand! ”

Mao Lingfeng looked up at him, his eyes were full of tears, and his voice was choked, "This time I go to Zhao Kingdom, whether the doctor is good or not, I won't go out again, just stay at home and accompany you to old age, this is the last time, please, okay?" ”

Sima Shun looked at her pleading gaze, and was powerless for a while, could he refuse? The answer is, no. If she refused, maybe she would secretly run to Zhao Guo alone. So Sima Shun said, "I'll go with you." ”

Mao Lingfeng was taken aback, "No, we are the deputy marshal of the soldiers and horses, we are all gone, if something happens, who will be in charge."

"Give it to Zheng Jie and Tian Yuan."

"They can't do it, their ability, their strength, and their prestige are difficult to convince the public, and if something really happens, they can't command the army." Mao Lingfeng said resolutely. "I don't want to wait for me to come back from Zhao and see a country in flames."
