Looking at Zheng Xuandu's brisk figure, Zheng Yan suddenly understood her thoughts, it turned out that she wanted to fight for something, and Mingzhe couldn't protect herself?

Zheng Yan didn't go to the queen, in fact, he didn't go there often before, it seems that the queen is a little uncomfortable and embarrassed every time she sees herself, maybe because of the grandfather, Zheng Yan thought that he wouldn't go without causing trouble to others, so he finally turned into the concubine's He'an Palace.

Concubine He was born in the Zheng family, since marrying into the palace, she does not ask about the world, although she has a son and a daughter, but the relationship with the emperor is not particularly close, it can only be said to be bland, at least Zheng Yan has never seen that person in He'an Palace, the eldest daughter Zheng Lan returned to her grandfather a few years ago, and now only Zheng Gu is with the concubine, and the whole He'an Palace has been quiet.

Originally, Jieyu's rank and rank generally did not get a separate palace to live in, but when the concubine first married into the palace, the clan was still powerful in Luoyang, and now the clan has returned to the clan land, and many people have begun to be dissatisfied with the treatment of the concubine.

As soon as I entered He'an Palace, I saw Concubine He standing at the door, demure and elegant, with a serene temperament, looking at herself gently, Zheng Yan was a little embarrassed, and said that he would bring Yingyue Xinluo over, but he forgot about it, "Aunt He, didn't Zheng Gu come back?

Concubine He smiled and said softly, "Come in, your Aunt Pei and Aunt Leng are here, those three little guys went back to Zongxue to eat, there are a lot of dishes, you have to finish eating."

Passing through the hall and turning into a small room, there were already two ladies sitting at the table, both dignified and elegant people.

The three mothers and Zheng Yan's mother entered the palace at about the same time, with similar temperaments, it is really rare to see this huge and deep harem, and the two mothers are smiling at Zheng Yan who entered the door,

Pei Guifei looked at the back and said with a smile, "You and your aunt said that you have two extremely brilliant child daughters-in-law, why didn't you come?

Zheng Yan sat down after saluting, looked at a large table of dishes and said helplessly, "Don't let me touch those three stinky boys."

Leng Guifei gave Zheng Yan a chopstick dish and said with a smile, "The three of them are tired of eating early, don't change the topic, I told you earlier, what do you mean to Yufei and Qingwan?

Pei Yufei is the niece of Pei Guifei's mother's family, and at the beginning of this year, she left Taixue and returned to the Pei family's land, saying that there are some cultivation arrangements, and the Pei family has a long family tradition; Leng Qingwan is the niece of Leng Guifei's mother's family, two years younger than Zheng Yan, and she also goes to school in Guozijian, which is in the school house on the west side of the courtyard. Zheng Yan has naturally seen these two girls, although they are not familiar with each other, they also know that they are indeed very good, they are still young, but they already have the appearance of a wealthy Shuyuan, and their qualifications are good, they will definitely be women who can be independent inside and outside in the future, and the tutor of the Pei family Leng family has always been praised by the world.

Zheng Yanzheng took a bite of the "lion's head", and after swallowing it, he said helplessly, "The two younger sisters are naturally excellent and impeccable, don't you know, in Guozijian, the stars hold the moon, but people are happy or not, I think it should be quite critical, right?"

Pei Guifei smiled and said, "Don't make such and such excuses, you will be sixteen after the New Year, and you are about to open a mansion and build a government, and the three of us will definitely help you with your relatives.

Looking at the expressions of the three people, Zheng Yan suddenly found that what he said just now seemed to mean something, and then he looked suspicious, and the three ladies smiled pretending to be calm.

Zheng Yan didn't have the habit of getting to the bottom of this kind of thing, and said while eating the dishes, "I actually don't care, the daughter-in-law is only a family when she marries into the door, Yufei and Sister Qingwan may have other ideas, now people say that they get engaged late and get married early, and they listen to some rumors that it may be a world that changes drastically in the future, so I think...", as he spoke, his head became lower and lowered, and the dishes did not stop.

The three ladies looked at each other and smiled a little helplessly, and the concubine said angrily, "Don't make excuses, I know that you young people don't want to marry wives and have children early, and they all have the general trend of the world! But there is a bottom that should let you know that the population of various clans has decreased very much in recent decades, especially after that incident, the elite has lost a lot, and I am afraid that there will be a situation of lack of success, and the gossip you said is not groundless, if these rumors really form a general trend, it can't be said that it is really that situation, so the matter of marrying a wife and having children in the future will not give you much leeway, understand? Don't always hope for luck with your own set, so we will give you Zhang Luo in advance, and when the time comes, you will be appointed to marry, and it will really be lucky to uncover your head."

Zheng Yan almost burst out laughing, hurriedly covered his mouth, and after thinking about it, Leng Guifei handed over a bowl of soup, and said with a smile, "You have always been able to listen to things and be reasonable, the reason is for you, if Yufei Qingwan is not satisfied, we will find someone else",

Zheng Yan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I'm really satisfied, it's really not picky, no, when I say satisfied, I mean that they are really good, but I'm afraid that I can't satisfy them."

After eating a meal for a long time, Zheng Yan left He'an Palace with a swollen stomach, and Leng Guifei retracted her gaze and said softly, "This kid doesn't seem to have much security."

Pei Guifei nodded and said, "It's weird if there is, forget it, don't say it, you will be annoyed." In fact, it's not bad, so I know how to cherish and know that I love my daughter-in-law, so Yufei's child always pushes back and I am afraid that she will miss it, what glory and wealth, it is true that the two of them live a down-to-earth life, then again, do you really want to come by their temperament? Junhe, your attitude is very unfirm."

Concubine He chuckled and said, "I'm actually afraid of ruining the good things of young people."

Zheng Yan left the palace, all the way to hear the palace people talking about last night's incident, the most said is that the Song family was attacked, I heard that there were only four people who attacked, among which the "big killing" was actually a half-old boy, even the most talented Song Wen of the Song family was knocked down unconscious, the young man finally dropped a sentence of extreme insult to the Song family and left, Song Wen as the emperor's personal disciple, what did the emperor say?

The Song family has lost face, what is the appearance of the other founding clans? It is said that the old nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty have declined greatly over the years, especially the demon sealing war more than ten years ago that damaged countless elites, and now it is becoming more and more stretched, is it that other people's opportunities are coming?

Zheng Yan naturally knew that the situation was not as erosive as rumored, and the strength of the old nobles was indeed declining year by year, but the foundation system was all there, and it could only be said that it was similar to the rise and fall of the tide, and now it was the time to fall, did those old people deliberately take advantage of the situation to retreat into the background? Or did they prepare for future changes? Will there really be changes? Marry a wife and have children, three wives and four concubines? Several mothers are right, according to past practice, this should indeed be the case.

Zheng Yan couldn't help but feel a little melancholy, uncomfortable, it turned out that he was so insignificant and stupid in front of these things, should he really change his mentality to conform to the times? No, shouldn't there be only one direction? Contrarian trend? This is a bit of a shame, now I don't have a high wall,

No matter how powerful people are, they probably won't look at themselves, and the children of the clan are generally undergoing all kinds of rigorous training before the age of thirty, and they rarely have the opportunity to take on important responsibilities, even those Tianzong wizards who have entered the realm of the earth in their teens.

Zheng Yan looked at the high walls on both sides of the mewrach and was silent, what if he could jump up, the key was to be taller than them.

There was a sound of fighting behind the high wall, Zheng Yan was not surprised, probably because of the discussion, suddenly there was a scorching wave of air surging into the mezzanine, the heat wave did not come from both ends of the mezzanine, nor from above, but through the wall!

Zheng Yan was curious and touched the thick wall, it was still a little hot, is the fire method? And it is definitely a very strong and meticulous fire method, it has reached the point of subtlety, otherwise there will be no such effect, Zheng Yan has some urge to jump on the wall to check, and after thinking about it, he still dispelled this idea, which is not suitable.

Behind the high wall, a handsome young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, full of fire snakes, was staring at a tall old man opposite, and a girl in red stood not far away;

"People in the world only pay attention to the power of burning when they practice fire, and they never seem to pursue abilities other than burning, so it's just that young people think like this, isn't it too sad for us of our ages to think like this?", the old man said suddenly.

The young man on the other side scattered the fire snake on his body for a while and said, "Are you saying that we should not be limited to a single power, but explore something broader?

The girl in red not far away looked a little weird, as if she was trying her best to endure something.

The old man looked at the golden fireball in his palm and said softly: "Among the four heavenly fires, only the Burning Sky Purple Fire has the ability to burn the sky and boil the sea, and the others such as the Ancient Spirit Yi can see all things and know the past and the present; the Netherworld Ghost Fire can go straight to the Netherworld to know that the deceased's life is fine; and the Liuding Divine Fire can wash the muscles and cut the marrow and forge all things. All three of them involve the Mysterious Dao, and we are now only satisfied with one power! Zheng Ke Zheng Zhu, what do you think?"

The sixth prince Zheng Ke fell into deep thought, and the beautiful eyes of the red-clothed girl Zheng Zhu rolled and said softly, "The avenue is too far for us to see, and the four heavenly fires you said are all legends, right?

The old man shook his head, dispersed the fireball in his hand, and said, " We have experienced an era of the end of the Dharma in the world, many of the cultivation methods have been lost, and now you have become suspicious or even completely unbelieving in those legends, our Picking Qiu Si Guan Qiu Si has a special person responsible for exploring these legends, many of them have been proven to exist, but for some reason they cannot be made public to the world, you can't easily deny anything because of blind confidence and narrow-mindedness, as for your Nanming Lihuo, now it can only be burned, but the future evolution direction will never stop there, the red phoenix physique, the legend is that you can cultivate Nirvana fire”。

Zheng Ke glanced at his sister and saw that this girl was a little disapproving, and said with a smile, "Mine is just ordinary fire, and the physique is not special, so I can only develop in the fine aspect first, the master has never said when we can start cultivating the Samadhi True Fire, nor let us find the cheats by ourselves, and now the highest level of fire in the cultivation world should be the Samadhi True Fire, right?"

The old man nodded and said, "Almost, in fact, the samadhi true fire that ordinary people say is not the true fire of Taoism, only when the physique is improved to a certain extent, coupled with the real understanding of the Heavenly Dao, it is possible to achieve it, at that time it is the strongest fire method in the world, but the world likes to draw cakes to satisfy hunger on the way of cultivation, and always find some lofty and decorative things to deceive others and deceive themselves", Zheng Zhu quietly grimaced, and the old man began to drop his bookbag again,

"The Samadhi Fire Method, like the Five Thunder Righteous Method, is obtained through the cultivation of the viscera, the origin is the essence, qi, and spirit of the human body, because it involves the viscera, so the fundamental purpose of cultivation is to drive away the plague and eliminate evil spirits and improve the physique, and the fire law and thunder method are bursting and difficult to control, so there is also the consideration of the purity of the mind, fortunately, you are not born with a pure yang physique, otherwise the cultivation of the fire method will have a hard time, and the people around you will not be at peace."

Speaking of which, the old man's expression was a little strange, Zheng Zhu looked at it in his eyes and grinned, "Master, has you ever seen a pure yang body that cultivates the thunder method or the fire method?" Speaking of which, the thunder fire spell should be the most powerful, but it is really very troublesome as the master said, it should be easy to go mad and lose his mind, right?

The old man nodded and said, "There is no absolute good or absolute bad physique, in fact, many people with excellent physique and special will be restricted, some are objective conditions, and some are the way of heaven in the underworld, so you must not stick to the stereotype on the way of practice, let you temper each other is to prevent this from happening, and if you learn alone and have no friends, you are lonely and unheard, the reason why the saint is a saint is to extract the truth that exists between heaven and earth and transform it into words, and the ghosts and gods are not empty words, which are mysterious...",

The two young people looked at each other a little helplessly, they didn't sound like the mood and feeling of the old man, they had to listen carefully and pretend to be convinced, otherwise they would have to preach for a long time.

Zheng Yan thought about the heat wave just now and naturally thought of the fire method, the fire method had always been considered the most powerful spell before the thunder method was widely developed, and when he thought of this, he thought of the thunder method again, why are these two spells considered to be the most powerful spells? At least the strongest in the general sense?

I remember that Li Feng in the house mentioned a saying, if the Qiyao spells are divided according to the size and form, the water and soil spells are probably like hammers and big knives, yin and yang are probably whip poisons, and thunder fire is a fine needle, even invisible to the naked eye, coupled with pure attributes, the subtle and dense thunder fire naturally becomes the most powerful spell,

Zheng Yan was convinced of this, because he had seen someone release the thunder magic to transform into thousands of tiny "silver snakes", and instantly decompose a piece of wood, which was decomposed instead of burning a brain into ashes, which shocked Zheng Yan beyond comprehension, the spell could be played like this!

Thinking of the Thunder Law Fire Method, he thought of his innate pure yang physique, and Zheng Yan felt a little melancholy.

In terms of physique, the so-called pure yang body is not a collection of pure yang qi, but it is easier to produce pure yang qi than ordinary physique, and the soul is more inclined to be masculine, in short, it is strong yang qi, so when he was a child, Zheng Yan and the neighborhood children played crazy outside in the middle of the night, and often saw some strange things looking at him from afar, such as spirit ghosts.

Pure yin things will be consciously or unconsciously attracted by pure yang things, this is still Zheng Yan has not developed a physique, otherwise the breath will be stronger, and the temperament will also develop towards the masculine side, the key is that it is easy to cross that boundary.

In order to avoid this kind of thing, the grandfather has formulated several sets of meticulous and comprehensive character cultivation and guidance methods since Zheng Yan was very young, the purpose is to prevent Zheng Yan from finally developing a upright or even rigid temperament, of course, many Zheng Yan are not clear, Ying Yue once said that he missed it once, Zheng Yan didn't care much, in fact, Zheng Yan thought about being able to practice the thunder method in the future when he was very young, and he couldn't say why, he just thought it was very good, but the pure yang physique was very troublesome, and the book said that it would be half the effort, but it was also the most difficult to control and the easiest to stimulate the nature.

Nowadays, everyone in the world knows that people's temperament needs to be guided and regulated, and this is the case with the monk's cultivation of the mind, not that it is good to conform to the nature, which is conducive to the pursuit of the Great Dao, but that it is necessary to face it squarely, and after facing it, it is either reduced or carved, of course, the demon cultivator will generally pursue the publicity of the nature and elevate the nature to the highest.

One of the divisions of the path of cultivation is the different ways of dealing with nature, and in a general sense, the so-called people in the same way refer to people who deal with their nature in the same way.

The Zheng family belongs to the carving faction, which is also the mainstream faction today, starting from the three schools of Confucianism and Mofa when the millennium war was a hundred schools of thought, and it has been a thousand years, and it has been proved that this is also the most correct way of cultivation, just because of the problem of nature, it has gradually integrated into a lot of complex innate numerology and acquired carving, because it is carved and complex, so a little carelessness will leave some mistakes and omissions, so there is a combing after the realm division is broken, in short, there are a lot of things.

Zheng Yan silently thought about these and returned to Guozijian's schoolhouse.

The afternoon class is the study of the scriptures and the "Book of Changes", the Mr. Guozijian who lectures on the "Book of Changes" and "The Book of Changes" is never alone, and the "Book of Changes" belongs to the content of the lectures of the doctors of Guozijian, "The Book of Changes" It was the people of Qin Tianjian who gave the lecture, and they explained to Zheng Yan that it was Qin Tianjian Chunguan Zheng Jingshen, and today there was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old graceful girl by his side, because of the quiet temperament, giving people a feeling of being older, in short, a group of guys in the school house let out an exclamation in unison, and someone who knew him called out the girl's name, Sedum Tianxuan, the youngest daughter of Chun Guanzheng.

Qin Tianjian officials and their families all live in the east of the inner city, and most of the students of Guozijian also live in the east city, some are still neighbors, it is common to grow up together since childhood, Sedum Tianxuan saw a few acquaintances with some smiles in their quiet star eyes, Zheng Yan only listened to Ye Qingcheng behind him and said softly, "Qingsu is like a chrysanthemum in the nine autumns, quiet as a sea of stars, alas, it's a pity",

Next to him, Zheng Tong said strangely, "It's a pity, what's the situation? Isn't this exactly what you like?",

Ye Qingcheng said sadly, "People are cultivating the way of heaven, and there is a Taoist couple who is a childhood sweetheart and has been married since childhood, well, when you are old, you will become a Taoist couple, but unfortunately we don't have a chance, I hate to meet when we are not married."

Jing Tianxuan came to assist his father in explaining mathematics, and was kneeling behind the podium to sort out some drawing boards, Lord Jing Shen had already started to lecture, Zheng Yan opened the book and thought of a little girl for no reason, remembering that she said that her father was the head of the Qintianjian Earth Division, and said that she would definitely marry herself when she grew up, wasn't it that she was rescued from the traffickers on the day of the Lantern Festival, could it really be a personal promise? Zheng Yan has no female popularity, but the child relationship is surprisingly good.

At the end of class, it was also the end of school, everyone left the school building to go home, Zheng Yan just crossed the threshold and found that many people were looking at him strangely, and for no reason, his eyelids jumped and he suddenly felt bad, Ye Qingcheng, who had gone out one step earlier under the plane tree not far away, waved his hand, "Here, Tianxuan is looking for you something?", after speaking, he pulled Qi Wending and they left in a hurry,

What do you mean by squeezing your eyebrows and making eyes? Why did Jing Tianxuan look shy?

Zheng Yan stubbornly walked under the plane tree, and the others looked introspective and weird, what do you mean by smiling, Lord Jingshen!

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw Wen Renhu and Concubine Xue walking side by side, followed by Wen Rengui, the two girls first looked under the plane tree, and then looked at Zheng Yan, why are their eyes so strange? What does it matter to you? Zheng Yan has never been treated like this kind of public enemy, he is not handsome, his figure is not slender enough, his talent is average, and his reputation is not very good...

When I got to the bottom of the tree, I saw Sedum Tianxuan blushing and taking out a card from her sleeve... Zheng Yan's whole heart tightened, isn't it? What is the situation? Love letters? Confessions? Sent by others? Who is it? Is it really that little girl? No, she shouldn't know where she came from? Not to mention what can a seven or eight-year-old girl remember, it's been several years, who is it?

Jing Tianxuan stuffed the letter into Zheng Yan's hand and hesitated for a moment before running away quickly, Zheng Yan could see the girl's trembling hands and shy and panicked expression, Lord Jing Shen smiled and nodded and followed,

Zheng Yan fell into a stupor, what happened last night? Time and space are reversed?

I took a deep breath when I came back to my senses, and I felt that my palms were sweaty, and my heart was beating hard, what should I do? How should I refuse to be confessed for the first time in such a big way, or in public? Is it too much to hurt people's face if I refuse?
