Chapter 818: The Great Elder Comes to Beijing

The taverns and teahouses in the capital have always been lively, and they are a good place to listen to the news.

An old woman sat in a corner of the tea shed on the street, silently listening to the chatter of the tea guests.

The people who come to this kind of tea shed are often not well-off, and most of them are ordinary people, and such people have no scruples when they talk about rumors.

"Tsk, at this time, there is still not a drop of rain, and if this continues, the crops will die of drought, don't think about any harvest."

"But no, I don't know how many people will starve to death by then, and life will be sad!"

"Have you heard, the reason for the drought is because of the crown princessβ€”"

The tips of the old woman's ears moved slightly.

Many people laughed at the man: "Who hasn't heard of this, but she is a high-ranking princess, and we can't help it." ”

"We can't help it, can't you help it? You can't make everyone suffer because of a woman, right? ”

……

The old woman put down the two copper plates on the long table, got up and left with a blank face.

The rumors have spread to the present, which is related to the stability of the people, and it is no longer easy to break down, and the status of the crown princess may not be guaranteed.

Not long ago, Dongpingbo Mansion was full of flowers and brocade, cooking oil on fire, and it was very proud of the scenery for a while, and I don't know how many people envied it. Now that the crown princess has caused a storm, coupled with the accidental destruction of the career of the eldest grandson, Mrs. Feng listened to some cool words, and fell ill all of a sudden under the double blow.

Jiang seemed to use this reason to ask the queen for instructions to return to Dongpingbo Mansion to visit his grandmother.

The queen sighed lightly: "Visiting your grandmother is a proper filial piety, but you are on the cusp of the storm right now, and you must be cautious when you leave the palace." ”

"The queen mother can rest assured, and the daughter-in-law understands."

"Then you go."

The ginger seemed to retreat outward.

The queen moved the corners of her mouth and shouted again: "Crown Princess." ”

Jiang seemed to bend his knees slightly, and his face was calm: "What else does the queen mother command?" ”

The queen smiled: "There is no command, just to tell you not to put too much pressure, your father will not be shaken because of some rumors, and the difficulties will always pass." ”

In this deep pool-like palace, who has not encountered difficulties, she believes that this turmoil will not crush the crown princess.

Jiang Ru's heart warmed slightly: "Thank you for the relief of the queen mother." ”

After leaving the palace to see Mrs. Feng, under proper arrangement, Jiang seemed to meet with the old woman.

The old woman looked at Jiang Yi carefully, and sighed longly: "I have long guessed that you may be the real saint of my Wu Miao, but I can't figure out why the saint is from Da Zhou." Now that I know that you have the blood of Wu Miao, everything suddenly becomes clear, and Wu Miao finally has a saint. ”

In the end, it is difficult to hide the emotion.

Although Jiang seemed to have promised that Wu Miao would appear as a saint when needed, it was an exchange of interests and cooperation after all, which was completely different from now.

Jiang seems to have the blood of Wu Miao, which proves that the sky does not die Wu Miao, and the inheritance of the saint has not been broken.

It can be said that the Great Elder was truly relieved.

"I didn't expect the Great Elder to come over in person."

"Of course I'll come over for such an important matter, but I just have to arrange the affairs of the clan properly, and I have delayed a little time."

Jiang seemed to hold a cup of tea and asked calmly, "The Great Elder has heard about the discussion of the people in the capital, right?" ”

The Great Elder's face changed slightly, and he nodded slowly.

"The Queen Mother wants to put me to death, I don't know how the Great Elder plans to take back this chess piece?"

The Great Elder's eyes were deep, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are the Holy Maidens sure this is from her handwriting?" ”

Jiang seemed to sneer: "The matter has come to this, does the Great Elder still have extravagant hopes?" ”

The Great Elder was a little laughed and couldn't get off the stage, rubbing the jasper ring on his thumb, his expression gradually condensed, and said word by word: "The chess pieces hurt the Holy Maiden, of course they will be destroyed." ”

Jiang seemed to ponder for a moment and asked the doubts in his heart: "This chess piece is so important, and it takes a long time, doesn't the Great Elder have the means to control her?" ”

"She had sworn to the true God. The Holy Maiden had never really lived in the Omsom, and I am afraid that she did not understand what it meant to swear to the true God for the Utamian people. ”

Jiang didn't seem to answer.

She lived in Wumiao for several years in her previous life, and she somewhat understood the Wumiao people's devotion to the true god, and the bondage of faith was strong.

For example, if a foreigner insults the saint, he can be beaten to death by the angry Wumiao, but if the foreigner scolds the prince of the Great Zhou, most of the people of the Great Zhou will pretend not to hear.

In Umiao, the saints and elders are the symbols of the gods, not to mention the worship of the true gods.

The Great Elder sighed: "I didn't expect that it would be only a few decades for her to leave the true god behind. ”

Jiang seemed to suddenly feel that the Great Elder was a little naΓ―ve.

This innocence is probably related to the way the Holy Maiden of Wu Miao is cultivated.

Gifted girls have been selected to cultivate hard since they were young, and the one who stood out became a saint, and since then everyone has respected her, and when she becomes a great elder, she will be even more successful in her word, and she will become the master of the fate of the clan.

There will be intrigues, but they are still much worse than the upper echelons of the Great Zhou royal family.

"Decades of splendid paste, not to mention that there are thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the Great Zhou." Jiang seemed to say softly.

The Great Elder's face changed slightly, and he sighed: "In addition, she has also placed Gu in her body, but I heard Elder Hua say that the Gu worms in her body have been removed at some point......

Jiang Ru's eyes flashed slightly.

Could it be that the Great Elder is talking about the Mother and Son Heart-to-Heart Gu in the Queen Mother's body? This Gu worm seems to have been removed by her......

However, at that time, she could detect that it had not been too long for the mother and son to parasitize the heart Gu into the queen mother's body, and it had not been decades long.

"So, there's no way?" Jiang seemed to kick the ball back.

Whoever causes trouble will contribute, and it is justified.

However, Jiang seemed to know that it was not so easy, after all, it was impossible for Wu Miao to trap himself in.

"There's a way."

"Listen up."

After listening to the Great Elder's speech, Jiang seemed to hesitate for a while: "In this way, Elder Hua is afraidβ€”"

The Great Elder said expressionlessly, "It is Elder Hua's honor to solve the trouble for the Holy Maiden, and Elder Hua will definitely die without regrets." ”

The corners of Jiang Ru's mouth twitched.

She can understand the spirit of the Wumiao people who give everything for the saint, but after all, she is not a native of the Wumiao, and she can't ignore the life and death of others in order to solve troubles.

"There's no better way than that." Seeing Jiang Xiang's hesitation, the Great Elder reminded calmly.

She was a little puzzled, Jiang seemed to hesitate for the sake of Elder Hua, but her heart was inexplicably much more steady.

A saint who can take care of the lives of the Wumiao people should be reliable.

Jiang seemed to finally nodded: "Then so be it, I will try my best to save Elder Hua's life." If Elder Hua has a case, I will take good care of her granddaughter. ”

Outside the screen, Elder Hua, who heard this, burst into tears.

Die for the saint, die without regrets, and be even more carefree to listen to the saint say this.

"I think the current situation is very unfavorable to the Holy Maiden, and this matter needs to be done as soon as possible."

Jiang seemed to smile disapprenously: "Don't worry, it's not time yet, I will solve the current trouble." ”
