Chapter 266: The Emperor's Family's Helplessness
Five hundred years ago, the Heavenly Demons were at war, and the Heavenly Court lost its troops at the beginning of the Great War because of the light enemy, and since then, the Heavenly Court is very sensitive to the demons of the Nether Realm, and it cannot tolerate anything that violates the rules of the heavens between the gods and immortals.
Therefore, in the eyes of the upper realm, the continuous relationship between Ling Chaofeng and Mu Xiaowan is an outlier.
But right now, all the gods and immortals are gathered together, not to discuss this pair of lovers, but to have demonic energy gathered in the lower realm, which is becoming a trend day and night.
The Jade Emperor sat on his head, solemn, looked at the gods from between the jade, and said majestically: "Before the demon becomes powerful, break it up, all the immortals, can there be a volunteer to go to exorcise the demon?" ”
All of them are noble gods with boundless power, but they have two attitudes towards this matter, one faction thinks that there is no need to make a fuss, it is just a few demons running around, and the other faction is naturally on the side of the Jade Emperor, thinking that it should be treated with caution.
The dragon queen sat silently aside, and her husband was just about to speak, but she stretched out her hand to stop her, and said softly: "Come to the door and talk about it." ”
The imprisoned cow heard it behind his mother, and he understood that the queen mother was still haunted by the mockery. At the beginning, he had the merit of mocking the wind and eliminating demons, but he couldn't resist his accidental injury to mortals, and such a heavy punishment of the ninth reincarnation was simply contempt for the dragon clan.
The atmosphere on the Lingxiao Treasure Hall is tense and solemn, but in the mortal palace, there is laughter and laughter by the Taiye Pool, it is rare for children outside the royal family to enter the palace, the little princess happily plays with Pei'er, catches insects and flies and even lies on the shore to catch fish, the nursing mother and palace maid are so anxious that she can't do it, but the queen said chicly: "Don't stop them, you just watch them carefully." ”
Seeing that her son took the princess to heaven and earth, Xiaowan was so nervous that she forgot all about the little things as soon as she entered the palace if she dared to explain at home, but the queen looked very happy, since this was the case, she didn't want to be disappointed.
"The dim sum in this palace is not as delicious as Uncle Biao's, but the imperial chefs in the imperial dining room are also doing their best." Like smoke holding tea, please Xiaowan with a snack, smiled and said, "Naturally, the difference is not the taste, but the mind, Uncle Biao is thinking about how to make delicious food, and the imperial chefs are worried all day long, whether the dishes made today can please me and the emperor." ”
"Niangniang said this, Uncle Biao should be very happy, and when I return to Baisha County, I will definitely convey Niangniang's praise."
Xiao Wan said, looked around a little, the palace maids and attendants were standing outside the pavilion, and they couldn't hear the sound here.
She looked at the people around her, and the queen was smiling and her eyes fell on a pair of children in the distance, and said to herself: "As soon as you come, the breath here seems to have become free." ”
Freely? Xiaowan was stunned.
The queen put down the teacup, sighed very lightly, and asked Xiaowan: "Has the women's school in Baisha County been set up?" ”
Xiaowan nodded again and again: "On the day the girls' school was completed, the princess was not at home, so the county master invited me. I took Pei'er for a spin, the school was clean, and the people who came to study were all female dolls, and what they learned on the first day was how to write their names. Pei'er is still clamoring to study there, saying that the young ladies are beautiful. ”
Ruyan couldn't help laughing, listened to all this happily, and asked some things carefully, and said with emotion: "Although the emperor fully supports me in implementing these things, but after all, I can't reach it, and I can only listen to the ministers report on the progress of various places, and I can't see it with my own eyes." I comforted myself, whether it was true or not, even if there was a place that could be done with care, as long as there were female dolls that could go to school and not be bought and sold at will, it would be worth it. ”
"Niangniang's merits are immeasurable, but it's a pity that Niangniang can't leave the palace." Xiaowan said softly, "Niangniang...... You'd love to go out and see it, wouldn't you? ”
"I want to, but I can't, not only I can't, but the emperor can't either, that's why there is such an existence as Shopkeeper Ling." They are all over the country, they are the eyes and ears of the emperor, and they go to see and listen instead of the emperor, and if they want to govern the country well, they can't just listen to the one-sided words of the ministers. ”
In order not to embarrass Niangniang, she picked up chopsticks to eat snacks, the sweet and refreshing pastries melted between her lips and teeth, Xiaowan was taken aback, such a peerless and delicious thing, why......
Yes, she thought to herself, no matter how delicious she eats every day, she will get tired of it.
"After you go back, tell Shopkeeper Ling that I will set up someone in Beijing to send and receive your letters. Xiaowan, can you write to me often in the future? "I want to hear from someone I trust to tell me what's going on in the outside world." ”
"Yes, but sis...... My handwriting is not good-looking, I don't know how to write much, and I speak quite neatly, but I don't know what to write when I pick up a pen. Xiaowan responded weakly, smiling apologetically, "If you don't mind, can you let Pei'er or Xianggong ghostwrite, naturally, if there is something private, I will definitely write it myself." ”
Ruyan said domineeringly: "You take your time, even if you just start writing a few words, it's good, don't ask others to ghostwrite, that's a whisper between you and me." ”
Xiaowan pursed her lips and could only nod.
The queen was in a very good mood and said with a smile: "I just received a letter from Hanxi in the morning, and I haven't read it yet." ”
She loudly instructed the palace people to go to Hanyuan Hall to get the letter, and then read it to Xiaowan together, Hanxi seemed to be instructed by Wei Tengfei, knowing what kind of things can make the queen happy, compared to asking An to greet these meaningless words, she told the queen between the lines, and the current majestic and grand situation of the seaside sailor.
"Xianggong said that when the sailor is completed, the emperor will personally go to check it out." Xiaowan said with a smile, "Niangniang, will you go then, if you go, I will also follow Xianggong to the beach again." ”
She shook her head: "Let's talk about it then." ”
At this time, Fei'er Ji'er, who was carried by the palace maids, cried, Xu was not at ease around strangers, and after Xiaowan saluted the queen, she came out of the pavilion and took her child from the palace maid's arms.
On the lawn in the shade of the trees, as soon as the two little ones arrived in their mother's arms, they immediately stopped.
Pei'er ran to see, and the little princess also came with her, Pei'er picked up her sister and coaxed her, kissing and patting, just like a big brother, and she was very fond of her sister.
The little princess stood on the side with her hands behind her back, and her beautiful big eyes were full of envy and longing.
Like smoke quietly watched this scene in the gazebo, watched Xiaowan speak softly to the princess, and watched her hand the little doll in her arms to the princess and hug it.
It may not matter whether there is a prince or not, but the daughter is too lonely, like smoke turning around, sitting at the stone table, in life, there will always be such and such imperfections, should not be forced, should be at peace with the encounter, but in the end, it is difficult to settle.
In any case, it is a pleasure to get together with Xiaowan today, adults and children have spent most of the day happily, and then the eldest princess also entered the palace, lively and lively, until sunset, Xiaowan did not leave the palace with the child.
Walking out of the imperial city gate, Ling Chaofeng was already waiting with the carriage, stepped forward to pick up the daughter from his wife's arms, and Xiaowan picked up Ji'er from the palace maid's hands, and after thanking each other, they got into the carriage and went home.
When she was in the palace, she heard the queen's voice "freedom", although Xiaowan understood, she couldn't understand it, but the moment she walked out of the imperial city gate, she immediately felt it.
Lying at the window, watching the imperial city gradually move away, Xiaowan felt the queen's helplessness more and more strongly.
When she returned home, when the night was quiet, the husband and wife snuggled up to each other, and she said to her husband: "It's really not easy for Niangniang, who was once so free and easy, will be bound in the palace for the rest of his life." ”
Ling Chaofeng stroked his wife's hands and said indifferently: "Life in the world, each has its own meaning, Niangniang's life may be dedicated to Daqi, supreme merit." ”
Xiaowan nodded: "Niangniang is the dragon and phoenix among people, not something we can think about." She sighed and said embarrassedly, "Xianggong, my mother wants me to write more letters to her, and you are not allowed to ghostwrite, my words are so ugly, and I always write wrong, do I want to write a letter until I am old." ”
Ling Chaofeng patted her hand lightly and said angrily: "If you don't study hard, it's good now, if you don't learn, you have to learn, do you dare to be lazy?" ”
Xiaowan rubbed in his arms: "Xianggong, I don't want to learn." ”
Ling Chaofeng frightened her: "If you promise your mother and don't do it, you will be guilty of bullying the king, and you will lose your head." ”
Xiao Wan suddenly stood up and glared at her husband nervously: "Really? ”
Ling Chaofeng smiled, took her in his arms and kissed her: "In order not to make you lose your head, my husband has to teach you to write." ”
The little lady churned, ya on Xianggong's body, and said with teeth and claws: "Wait until I teach you first." ”
The summer is scorching, and it is sweating all over the body, but in the Hanyuan Palace, several large vats are full of ice, and the dormitory is cool and pleasant, Xiang Run has touched the skin-skin that is like smoke and silk, and sleeps peacefully.
Like smoke, his eyes widened, looking at his husband beside him, his red lips squirmed slightly, and he read very softly: "Your Majesty, I want to go out and see ......"
