After the coronation ceremony on the viewing platform, Xiao Zhiyun, the former crown prince, truly became the emperor of this empire, at this time, not only the people here on the viewing platform shouted in unison, "Long live Your Majesty", but even the people who watched the succession ceremony on the live broadcast of the all-star network also issued a dense barrage of "Long live Your Majesty".

Coming out of the viewing platform, there is also the activity of the new emperor riding a horse-drawn carriage around the entire imperial city.

Although it is now the interstellar age, the emperor's chariot is a real carriage, still made of gold, and it takes eight horses to pull it together to get that kind of royal luxury carriage.

It was the first time Long Jiu had seen this golden carriage, but it was only the first time, and her eyes were straight.

Not only because the carriage is made entirely of gold, but also because it is also inlaid with countless diamonds and gemstones, which completely hits the dragons' penchant for shiny shiny.

If it weren't for the fact that there were many people watching the scene, and there were people from all over the empire watching the live broadcast, Long Jiu wanted to turn back into a dragon body, and then swept the golden carriage away on the spot.

The honor guard opened the way in front, and the golden carriage that Xiao Zhiyun was sitting in walked in the middle, followed by the five thousand Xingce army with real guns and ammunition.

Although the street has long been emptied by the Praetorian Guards, and even a human wall has been erected, there are still people in the imperial city standing behind the human walls on both sides.

On this day, almost all the people in the imperial city came out, and they watched the golden carriage slowly pass by with excitement and joy, and all of them reverently and spontaneously saluted the young emperor sitting in the golden carriage.

The ceremonial flowers in the sky were still blooming, and the people on both sides of the street also bought flowers out of their own pockets, and when the carriage passed by, they threw the flowers in their hands in the direction of the carriage.

The young emperor sat in the carriage and waved to them, his handsome face carrying a gentle smile.

When the emperor was parading the streets, Long Jiu and Mrs. Lu did not follow to see the excitement, but were taken directly into the palace by the attendants in the palace.

The original Prince's Hall was renamed Ha Ching Hai Yan Hall as the emperor's residence.

Long Jiu and Mrs. Lu came here to rest temporarily, and the old housekeeper Qian Bo was obviously very familiar with this place, and as soon as he came in, he immediately took the attendants in the hall to start preparing tea and lunch.

This is the second time Mrs. Lu has come here, the last time she came was more than ten years ago, at that time, the first emperor had just died, she came with Lu Junxiao, because she was worried about her young nephew, so Mrs. Lu did not go to the council hall, but came here to see the little nephew.

At that time, Mrs. Lu, who came here, was naturally not in the mood to enjoy the scenery of this prince's palace, so after coming this time, she couldn't help but look around with some curiosity.

Long Jiu had lived here, so she was a little more familiar than Mrs. Lu, and after seeing Mrs. Lu's curiosity, she said intimately: "Auntie, I'll accompany you here after dinner for a while." ”

Mrs. Lu immediately said happily after hearing this: "That relationship is good, I heard that this palace is still the prince of Emperor Zhaoxu back then" She originally said the prince, but as soon as the words came out, she realized that the current nephew was not the prince, so she immediately changed her words: "It was carefully prepared for him by Emperor Zhaoxu when His Majesty was not born, and it is said that it is not as good as the emperor's bedroom where the emperor himself lived back then." ”

Long Jiu asked curiously, "Haven't you been here before?" ”

Mrs. Lu's smile paused, and then she sighed: "I came here more than ten years, but that time I came for the death of the first emperor, so I was not in the mood to look at this place at that time." ”

When Long Jiu heard this, he hurriedly said: "Then you can take a good look today, there are not many antique buildings like this now, and the rest of them are all built in a film and television city for filming costume movies and TV series, those are all empty shelves, naturally not as good as my brother's Heqing Haiyan Palace." ”

Mrs. Lu laughed again, nodded and said: "No, I followed your uncle to the home planet once a few years ago, and that time because your uncle was there, so I was bold, and I went to the former land of China to take a look, but unfortunately many places of interest there were destroyed in the catastrophe, and now I can only find some scattered ruins." ”

Long Jiu was very interested in the catastrophe that had happened on the earth, and now the two of them had nothing to do, so they used it as a small chat to chat with Mrs. Lu to pass the time, so he asked: "I can't do history, and I didn't like to watch these things before, can you tell me more about that catastrophe?" According to the history of the earth, the reason why human beings migrated from their home planet to outer space was because the energy on the earth ran out at that time, which led to various devastating natural disasters? ”

Don't look at Mrs. Lu being spoiled by Lu Junxiao and becoming an innocent person who doesn't know the world, but she is a university professor at the highest university on Sirius, but she still teaches humanities and history.

It's just that since marrying Lu Junxiao, Lu Junxiao quit the job for his wife, but although Mrs. Lu quit her job, her knowledge is still firmly in her mind.

Mrs. Lu saw that Long Jiu was interested in the history of the earth, and immediately became even happier, and took Long Jiu's hand and said happily: "So to speak, but the fundamental reason is that the ancestors of the earth humans at that time did not know moderation too much, and the earth humans were in the later period because of the lack of energy, which led to the countries at that time to fight for these energy resources, although the people at that time were not as good as our current technology, but there was no shortage of large-scale thermal weapons." After the red eye, all countries naturally used those weapons, so it also led to an even worse environment due to the lack of energy. ”

Long Jiu snorted and said, "So, this is all the death of human beings themselves, and in the end, the bitter fruit also fell on their own heads." ”

"yes." Mrs. Lu nodded in agreement, and her tone was embarrassed: "It was probably a disaster that almost wiped out the species, so after the human race finally left the home planet and entered the interstellar world, the human race also began to pay attention to protecting the environment on the new planet." ”

"That's how the natural disasters on Earth came about?" Long Jiu asked.

Mrs. Lu nodded and said solemnly: "Because of the harsh environment, first the weather changed extremely, and then the glacier melted, releasing the ancient viruses sealed in the ice, followed by various virus infections. In addition, volcanic eruptions, major earthquakes, tsunamis, etc., if it were not for the late Earth Age, human scientists developed and created a spacecraft that could be loaded into space, and human beings were afraid that they would have been wiped out in that catastrophe. ”

Long Jiu nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "At that time, the world was so chaotic, and nothing appeared. Do people come out to save the world? ”

Mrs. Lu was stunned by her question, and asked confusedly, "What do you mean?" ”

Salvation?

In such a catastrophe, who human beings can save the world?

Long Jiu smiled, this time he didn't be tactful, but said bluntly: "I mean gods." ”

Whether there will be gods in other places, Long Jiu doesn't know, but the land of China at that time was always protected by gods.

At that time, in the face of such a catastrophe, it is not too much to say that it is the danger of annihilation, it is impossible for those guardian spirits not to appear and do something, and Huaxia has always been able to produce many people, and it is impossible for many cultivators with real skills not to act.

But Mrs. Lu was a little stunned, she looked at Long Jiu, who was thinking seriously, and sneered, and said happily: "The little girl is not very old, and she still believes in these things?" ”

But Long Jiu looked at her and said seriously: "Auntie, people can not believe in ghosts and gods, but they must also be in awe." I know that because of the increasing development of science and technology, human beings no longer believe in ghosts and gods, and they are even more scornful of the ancient practice of 'asking ghosts and gods without asking the common people', but the legends since ancient times have never been groundless. ”

Mrs. Lu was stunned by her serious attitude.

Long Jiu said solemnly: "I don't dare to guarantee other places, but the land of China has always been guarded by gods. Not to mention, the four guardian gods of Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu who guard the four lands of China really exist. ”

Mrs. Lu originally wanted to persuade Long Jiu not to believe in these legends, but when the words came to her lips, she suddenly remembered the video of the real dragon appearing in the North Sea of her home planet that she saw with Lu Junxiao on the interstellar network last time, and Mrs. Lu was speechless for a moment.

She wanted to say where there were real gods of the four directions, but there was a real dragon appearing.

Mrs. Lu slowly felt some awe in her heart, and she said nervously and hesitantly: "But at the end of the Earth Age, there was no record of the appearance of gods. ”

Long Jiu also wondered, could it be that after the human race forgot the gods, those gods also abandoned the human race?

Then Long Jiu saw the entanglement in Mrs. Lu's eyes, probably because the three views were impacted and a little difficult to accept for a while, Long Jiu immediately smiled: "I'm just talking, you can't take it seriously, don't think about it." More than 2,000 years have passed since that time, and it would be really stupid to go to the real thing at this time. ”

Mrs. Lu smiled when she heard this, as if relieved, and said, "Then don't think about it seriously, otherwise my three views will really be subverted, which is too grinding." ”

"Hmm." Long Jiu smiled: "If you don't believe it, it doesn't exist, but I still say that, even if you don't believe it, you must maintain a sense of awe." ”

Mrs. Lu nodded with a smile, then sighed again, frowned, and said: "Actually, sometimes I would rather have such a thing as ghosts and gods, especially when those wicked people and bad people do all the evil things and bad things, when those innocent victims are wronged, I really hope that there will be retribution in the world." ”

I don't know what Mrs. Lu thought, she has always loved to laugh, but there is a faint sadness on her face.

Long Jiu looked at her frowning eyebrows, a flash of clarity flashed in her eyes, and then said with a smile: "There is still karma, they all say that the way of heaven is good for reincarnation, if you don't believe it, look up, who will be spared by the sky." Sometimes it's not that you don't repay all the evil things you have done, but the time has not yet come, and once that hour comes, it's time for those people to pay their debts. ”

Mrs. Lu pondered her words carefully, then looked at her with a smile and said, "You are right, I didn't expect you to be so young that you actually believed this." ”

Long Jiu smiled and said nothing, acquiescing that he just believed in these things.

Mrs. Lu shook her head and smiled when she saw this, and then seemed to remember something, looking at Long Jiu's gaze became a little speechless and stopped, as if she wanted to say something, and felt embarrassed or embarrassed to speak.

Long Jiu looked at her and asked with a smile, "What does my aunt want to say?" You don't have to be embarrassed, just say it. ”

Mrs. Lu sighed lightly when she heard this, then lowered her voice and asked cautiously, "I heard that His Majesty locked up that woman for him?" ”

Long Jiu understood that she was asking Lu Qingzhu, her expression did not move, and she asked, "Do you want to ask, or do you want to ask someone else?" ”

Mrs. Lu waved her hand again and again, and said, "Little girl, don't think too much, I'm not asking anyone, or I want to ask." ”

Long Jiu smiled and said truthfully: "It's closed, and it's locked up in the dungeon of the prince's mansion." ”

Mrs. Lu's face changed slightly, probably because she didn't expect people to be locked up in the Prince's Mansion, she said in astonishment: "How could Your Majesty lock people up in the Prince's Mansion?" ”

Long Jiu: "I'm afraid that other places can't be closed, only the dungeon of the Prince's Mansion, no one can get people out under my brother's nose." ”

Mrs. Lu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Can I go and meet her?" ”

Long Jiu looked at her in surprise, probably wondering why she wanted to go to see Lu Qingzhu.

Mrs. Lu said helplessly: "I don't mean anything else, I just want to meet her, when I first married your uncle, she was also preparing to get married." Although your uncle has always been very good to me, but when I was the new daughter-in-law and first married into the Lu family, there was such a sister-in-law in the family, so at that time, she would come to accompany me to relieve my boredom whenever I was free, which helped me relieve a lot of embarrassment. ”

Mrs. Lu is a nostalgic person, even if she doesn't understand how a good sister-in-law can become so vicious, she also hated this sister-in-law because of the young Xiao Zhiyun at the time, but when she first married into the Lu family, this sister-in-law was really good to herself.

Although she knows now that she shouldn't have put forward such a rude idea, as long as she thinks of the sister-in-law who accompanied her in the Lu family back then, Mrs. Lu is still a little unbearable.

Long Jiu looked at the embarrassment in Mrs. Lu's expression, and after thinking about it, she said, "Auntie, don't go to see me, I'm afraid that you will be scared when you see it, and your uncle may be angry at that time." ”

Mrs. Lu was stunned, "Why am I scared?" ”

Long Jiu said seriously: "You probably don't know the details, my uncle is afraid of scaring you, so he didn't tell you all the things, the woman in the dungeon is not a person, you are really not suitable to meet her." ”

Mrs. Lu gasped and said in disbelief: "What do you mean by not being a person?" Tell me the truth, girl, what's wrong with her? Why are you all afraid of scaring me? ”

Long Jiu looked at her in embarrassment, thinking that the monster photos that Xiao Zhiyun posted on the interstellar network should have been quietly dealt with by Lu Junxiao, so he didn't let Mrs. Lu see them. With the status and power of the Lu family in Sirius, Lu Junxiao didn't want his wife to see those photos, so Mrs. Lu really couldn't see it, and no one on Sirius dared to talk about it to Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu took a deep breath and said resolutely: "Say it, I'm not afraid." ”

Long Jiu hesitated and said, "She is no longer a human now, and she doesn't look like a human." Did your uncle tell you about her collusion with the Abyssal Clan? ”

Mrs. Lu nodded with an ugly face, "As I said, the old man was angry because of this incident." ”

Long Jiu said helplessly: "She is bold enough to take the gene fragment of the Abyss Clan and put it into her own gene chain, and now she is a synthetic biochemical of the Abyss Clan and humans." Looks. It didn't look like a human being, like a big spider the size of a small car. ”

Mrs. Lu's face turned white in an instant.

Long Jiu gestured: "The body is the body of a spider, but there is a human head on it, just because of her monster appearance, my brother didn't worry about locking her elsewhere, so he locked her in the dungeon of the prince's mansion." ”

Mrs. Lu's hand shook and knocked over the tea cup in her hand, and the tea spilled on her clothes along the tabletop, but she didn't notice it, and her whole body was trembling.

"She's just that"

Mrs. Lu was angry and afraid, but she wanted to say something ugly, but because of her own self-cultivation, she couldn't spit out a single ugly word in the end.

Long Jiu was startled, and hurriedly took a tissue to wipe the tea on his clothes, "Auntie, calm down, don't make yourself angry." ”

Although Mrs. Lu and this sister-in-law have not been together at home for too long, they are also sisters-in-law in the end, and the old lady of the Lu family did not come early, they all said that the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, and Mrs. Lu, the eldest sister-in-law, consciously took on this responsibility.

Anyway, he is also a university professor, and he still teaches humanities and history, and Mrs. Lu's temperament has a bit of the old Duanfang etiquette.

She was so angry that her eyes were red, and there was mist in her eyes, even if she was so angry, she didn't say a word seriously, just choked up: "How did she become like this?!! ”

Long Jiu also sighed, in fact, what she wanted to say more was - it was not how the woman became what she is now, but that she was originally this kind of person, but she was hidden so deep in the past, so deep that even her closest family members couldn't find out.

That woman was born like this, although the old saying is that human nature is good, but some people are born with a bad seed, no matter how they are educated, they can't change it.
