Chapter 13: The Battle of the Dragons, Section 122, Dragons (6)

As he spoke, Ling Luo's tone paused, and he slowed down in a deep voice and said, "It's just, junior sister, don't blame senior brother for confessing, if many masters have trained into martial souls today, there are even more masters like the Divine Soul Country." Therefore, the senior brother has already begged Beijun to agree to borrow the black stone, and he will inevitably cultivate with Zhao Tian of the Divine Soul Country at that time, and the time will be set for tomorrow, and the location will be in the East Palace. The senior brother knows that the junior sister hates Beijun and the Divine Soul Country, but if she can't bear it, she will make a big plan, and I hope that the junior sister will have to restrain and endure it. ”

Yue Fei thought about it, and then dared to nod confidently and agreed, "Senior brother, don't worry." If the junior sister doesn't have any patience, then she will really live up to the teachings of the senior brother today."

When Ling Luo heard this, he smiled very happily.

Yue Fei couldn't help but show a smile that he hadn't seen for a long time, looking at the smile in front of him, he couldn't help but think of the time in Beiling Mountain, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Senior brother is so hard, such a hearty smile, can't help but remind people of the scene in Beiling Mountain with the third senior brother in Beiling Mountain......

Ling Luo's expression darkened, and he smiled again and looked at the starry sky, pointing to the brightest star and said, "Senior sister may think that senior brother is talking foolishly, but at the bottom of the cliff in Pixian County, senior brother once saw the heroic soul of the third junior brother with the princess and Wuzun, and he told us that the star is the place where his soul stays, and he is watching us every day......"

Yue Fei couldn't help but be stunned, but she believed that Ling Luo was definitely not delusional nonsense, and then thought that if people really had souls after death, if they really looked at the living people above the stars, then wouldn't her deceased husband also be in the starry sky?

Thinking like this, Yue Fei couldn't help but look at the starry sky.

“...... Senior brother, then you say, which star will King Zheng be above? He is the king of Zheng in the world, and the geography where he lives now should be ......."

Ling Luo couldn't help but smile and said, "Senior brother, I really don't know. Imagine how many kings' souls have been above the stars throughout the ages, perhaps...... The first kings are all above the brightest star where the third junior brother lives......"

Yue Fei felt that it was very possible, and couldn't help but stare at the brightest star in a daze, and her heart missed the scenes of love and sweetness when her deceased husband was alive......

The two of them looked up at the star in the sky for a long time under the starry sky on a moonlit night.

From time to time, I think of the scene of learning martial arts in Beiling Mountain, talking and recalling, and I am happy.

Yue Scarlet's heart knot opened, and gradually returned to the breezy and untamed atmosphere of the past, only occasionally when King Zheng was mentioned, a touch of sadness flashed in his eyes.

It wasn't until late in the day that Ling Luo was inconvenient to stay too long, for fear of provoking criticism, so he said goodbye and left the cold palace.

It is estimated that at this hour, the Empress Dowager Chen had not fallen asleep, and she was busy asking to see her.

Empress Dowager Chen really didn't sleep, the queen was talking with her, and when she heard that Xiangguo was coming, the queen wanted to avoid it, for fear of being accused of listening to government secrets. Empress Dowager Chen smiled and said, "The mother of a country should also understand the situation of government affairs, but she should not interfere." ”

"Yes......"

The queen sat still.

After Ling Luozhun saw him inside, he bowed to each other, and sat upright without speaking.

Empress Dowager Chen knew his scruples, so she reminded, "The Marquis of Xin will definitely not come to see the mourning family if there is nothing to do, and today I also want the queen to understand some government affairs, so that she can better understand the fatigue of King Zheng's governance in the future." ”

When Ling Luo heard this, he said, "Prince Chu sent a secret envoy and found the Xinhou Mansion. ”

When Empress Dowager Chen heard this, she knew that Chu Gaoge did not let the secret envoy see King Zheng and sought Ling Luo for fear of leaking secrets, and Ling Luo said this clearly implying that this matter should not be known to the queen. Then he said, "The letter marquis will not leave for a while, and I don't know when I want to talk about it." Originally, it was only a troublesome thing, but since it was related to the Chu State, it was very complicated. It is getting late, so let the queen go back and rest. ”

The queen got up with amusement and took the command, and withdrew.

Empress Dowager Chen then asked, "What is it that made the envoy sent by the Prince of Chu not see King Zheng and find the Xinhou Mansion?"

"Back to the Queen Mother, this matter is very important......" Ling Luo immediately explained the matter in detail.

Empress Dowager Chen listened very carefully, and it wasn't until Ling Luo finished speaking that she nodded and said, "Xinhou's response is very appropriate, but does Xinhou still think that the regent will never really assist King Zheng?"

Ling Luo didn't understand why Empress Dowager Chen had such a question, and bluntly said, "The minister thinks that it is absolutely impossible. ”

"King Zheng treats Beijun like a brother, and is even more willing to share the world of Zheng Guo with Beijun, and Beijun is the regent in Zheng Guogui. Although Princess Luo does not dare to say that she is the most beautiful in the world, she is also a peerless beauty in the world who is no worse than Princess Zhou. is also a kind of friendship for Beijun, but Beijun has not accepted it yet. The Marquis of Xin said, why is the regent still obsessed with the Divine Soul Country, why is he not tempted by everything that Zheng Guo has?"

Ling Luo felt even more strange when he heard it, the Queen Mother's words were at least the kindness of Liubeijun in Zheng Guo, but no matter how you look at it, this is an impossible thing.

"Back to the Queen Mother. The seeker of the will of the divine soul cannot be measured by common sense. Their belief in the will of the gods is like that of heroic warriors on the battlefield who are loyal to the king and serve the country regardless of sacrifice......"

Before Ling Luo's words were finished, Empress Dowager Chen quickly interrupted: "Xinhou's metaphor is not true, the soldiers are brave, and loyalty to the country is fundamental, but if there is not enough compensation and glory for those who die on the battlefield, how can there be many brave men? After all, you can't completely escape the word fame and fortune. ”

Ling Luo couldn't help but salute respectfully and said, "What the Queen Mother said is extremely true, and Fang Caichen's analogy is inappropriate. As the Queen Mother said, everything must have a cause. On the question of the seeker of the will of the Divine Soul, if the Queen Mother believes that the will of the Divine Soul is another special 'fame and fortune' that the people of the Divine Soul Sect believe in and chase, it will not be difficult to understand the heart of the Divine Soul Sect. ”

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Chen couldn't help but fall into silence.

Ling Luo didn't know what she was thinking, but she felt that the Queen Mother's words and expressions were very strange today. I can't help but suspect that the Queen Mother has too much contact with Beijun, and she has the heart to accept him as a righteous son. Originally, there was a discussion in the palace, saying that the queen mother treated Beijun as if she were her own. often summoned Beijun into the palace to dine together, and treated him even better than King Zheng.

"Xinhou, there is something that the mourning family needs you to do, I hope you don't refuse. ”

"Listen to the will of the Queen Mother. ”

Ling Luo stood up respectfully and saluted, waiting for his call.

"He ...... day If you really grasp that Beijun has the intention of murdering Zheng Guo, don't take his life, abolish his martial arts, and secretly bring him to the mourning family. ”

"This ......" Ling Luo was puzzled, thought for a moment, and replied seriously, "If the Queen Mother can't explain the reason, please forgive the ministers for not being able to receive the order." That Beijun is ambitious, and his belief in pursuing the will of the divine soul is unwavering, and he will never give up even if there is only one possibility. Even though his martial arts have been abolished, his wisdom and means are still there, which is a great disaster. ”

Empress Dowager Chen couldn't help but change her face, and asked in a cold voice, "The letter marquis mourns the family like this, and you refuse to accept the order?"

"The minister thinks that it is inconvenient for the Queen Mother to explain the reason, and there must be something unspeakable. The Queen Mother originally knew that Beijun was in deep danger and a huge disaster. For the sake of Zheng Guo's foundation, if the minister does not know the truth of the queen mother's heart, he really dare not obey his fate. ”

When Empress Dowager Chen heard this, her anger disappeared in a blink of an eye, and she was silent for a while, and sighed slowly.

"The mourning family also knows that if they don't explain the reason, they will never agree to this matter if they are a person who believes in the marquis. It's not that the mourning family can't believe it, it's just that this matter is really difficult to talk about...... The mourning family has a sister, and the mourning family is very similar, the king fell in love with the mourning sister at first sight, the king did not know about our sisters, and the old prime minister at that time persuaded the parents of the mourning family that the wedding day is enough for the sisters to enter the palace together, to give the king a surprise...... Later, this change made the sister of the mourning family elope away with the person who did not know her real name and surname, thanks to the help of the old prime minister and the chief of Zuo, the mourning family married into the palace alone, and the sister's affairs were not known......"

Ling Luo listened, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then he suddenly understood why the Empress Dowager Chen cared so much about Beijun, and why the Empress Dowager asked him to try to save Beijun's life in the future.

When Empress Dowager Chen said this, she took a sip of tea and asked Ling Luodao, "If the mourning family tells Xinhou that King Zheng has no Wang family bloodline to inherit orthodoxy, what will happen to Xinhou?"

"The Empress Dowager ......" The confidant eunuch next to the Empress Dowager Chen interjected unusually boldly at this time, but was signaled by the Empress Dowager Chen to shut up.

Ling Luo couldn't understand this when he heard this.

Naturally, Xinhou couldn't understand. But the letter should know about it. Since the thirteenth year of Zheng Kaiyuan, the princes and princesses, except for Princess Tianlai, none of them are of the blood of the first king......"

"What...... What" Ling Luo's eyes widened, he couldn't believe what he heard at this moment. None of the princes and princesses of Zheng Kaiyuan thirteen years ago are still alive, and today's King Zheng, Princess Tianlai, Princess Luo, etc., were all born thirteen years after Kaiyuan...... Although there is such an unspeakable humiliation in the royal palace, there is no reason for such a ridiculous scene to occur, unless there is something else to hide.

"This matter, Chief Zuo is clear. In the thirteenth year of Kaiyuan, the first king could no longer have children due to injury. However, the Wang family could not be without a queen, so after that year, the first king specially married some unmarried women who were pregnant with Liujia into the palace, and the mourning family was the first. These women all thought that they had concealed the fact that they were pregnant with Liujia, but in fact, it was only the intention of the first king. The real fathers of those belly children, the Manchus, were then beheaded, and those who entered the palace like this and told people that they were pregnant were all killed and sealed by the chief of Zuo. Only Princess Tian Lai is an exception, she is indeed the blood of King Zheng, and her birth once made King Zheng think that his injuries had healed, and later believed that Princess Tian Lai was a fairy rewarded by God. ”

Ling Luo was in a cold sweat when he heard this, he had never heard his father Zuo Shuchang mention half a word about these things, and he knew that his father would not have been able to say it.
