394 Revisiting the Past 1

"Ling Xi, it was a pure accident that I was able to open the first floor of the royal secret room back then. With my magical attainments back then, it was absolutely impossible, but I just did it, and for more than twenty years, I never felt how lucky I was, or how capable I was compared to other concubines. Seeing that the eldest prince fell asleep peacefully, the queen and Ling Xi returned to the temporary residence in the courtyard of the eldest prince and sat down, and the queen took the initiative to talk about what happened more than twenty years ago.

"Queen Mother, do you remember what it was like more than twenty years ago?"

"Ling Xi, it was still when the previous emperor was on the throne, more than twenty women were selected from the Red Eagle Continent to be sent to the palace as women who were still princes at that time, at that time, there were a total of four princes who were eligible to compete for the throne, as long as the prince's woman could open the secret room, this prince would be the future emperor.

The main palace and the mothers of the five princes now are all women who help the second prince at that time. We were the last group to draw lots, and we were hopeless at that time, because our twenty or so girls were the best of each genus. However, the first three groups were not successful, which gave us a little hope.

Our five girls also drew lots to determine the order before and after, I was unlucky to draw the last one, I was already resigned to my fate at that time, if one of the first four girls can open the secret room, then she is the queen, and the second prince can take over the throne logically.

Maybe it's providence, although the first four girls have better spells than me, they haven't opened the royal secret room. I'm the only one left, and I can only fight, my spell is so high, although I work hard, but I know in my heart that success is impossible. Just as I was doing my best, a feminine spiritual power came from behind me, and I knew that someone was plotting against me, but at that time, all my spiritual power was used to release spells, and I had no time to protect myself. I can only let that feminine spiritual power enter my body, and in an instant my breath is chaotic, and the spell mantra that I silently recite in my heart can't take it at all, just when I am desperate, the instinct of survival makes me think the mantra indiscriminately, and my original water spell is also intermittently difficult to connect, in addition, I also dabbled in wood and earth spells, and I somehow used it in a panic. When I found out that I was wrong, I went back to the spells of the water system, and because I couldn't connect the spiritual power, I returned to the wood and earth system again...

Strange things happened, just the fourth time I was forced to repeat, the door of the royal secret room opened, it was the moment to witness the miracle, a huge stone door was rumbled open, and a deep voice in the void announced that the first floor of the royal secret room was opened, and I and the second prince at that time were allowed to enter the secret room. ”

"Queen Mother, you are amazing!" Ling Xi praised sincerely.

"Ling Xi, I can only say that this palace is a blessing in disguise. Later, I became the queen, and those girls became the princess. The emperor and the rest of the royal family only thought that I had a spell, and only I knew that it was a mistake when my life was threatened. Afterwards, I secretly observed the concubines, and saw that they were all like the people who calculated me at the beginning, and I was careful everywhere. Later, I became pregnant with the mother of the second prince, and half a year later, we were sent to the highest level of the Red Eagle Continent to give birth.

Hongu was the first to give birth to Lin'er, but the child was born stupid, he cried vigorously when he was hungry, never knew how to laugh, and did not make eye contact. When he was two or three years old, the eldest emperor was diagnosed by the best doctor in the Red Shadow Continent, and he was so stupid and stupid all his life. ”

"Queen Mother, didn't you think that the child was artificially caused at that time?"

"I thought about it, but after a long time of investigation and no results, the second prince is a normal child, but his mother gave birth to him and lingered on the sickbed. The mages on the Red Eagle Continent failed to cure her, and later when the second prince was about five or six years old, she died. ”

"And then you just gave up the investigation?"

"No, later Concubine Zhen and a few of them also gave birth to sons, I heard that at that time, there was also a child born in the maternity courtyard who could only laugh, and everyone said that it was caused by the uneven distribution of spiritual power there. The emperor and I gradually became dead, just because of bad luck. ”

Hearing the queen say this, Ling Xi's heart probably had a goal in mind and said, "Queen Mother, do you know what happened to the child who was born to laugh?"

"Ling Xi, do you know that child, do you know him (her)?"

"Queen, that child is me, and I will only laugh until I am seventeen years old. It's a stupid person on another level. ”

"Ah, what happened to you?" asked the queen in shock.

"It's a long story, and we have to start from Lingshan. That year, my mother-in-law left, life and death are unknown..."Ling Xi and the queen talked about themselves, about Lingshan, about going down Lingshan...

The Ling family's manor ushered in an uninvited guest, that is, the mother concubine of the third prince. Concubine Zhen has been planning in her heart since the communication with the third prince and the early morning of the morning. Regardless of whether the Three Soul Pills are owned by Ling Xi or not, they are all inextricably related to Ling Xi and the Lan Mengdie couple who came back. She still doesn't know what Ling Yunrong and Lan Mengdie are capable of now. Ling Xi was a person who was enough to be of great help to the Third Prince. The age of the emperor's Zen throne has arrived, and this time the entire Red Shadow Continent selects girls with strong spells to enter the palace to compete, that is, for the sake of the throne. It's the same as being selected more than twenty years ago.

Now only the fifth prince can compete with the third prince, if there is no fifth prince, even if all the girls can't open the door of the secret room, the third prince can take over the throne smoothly. The current queen must also inherit the method of opening the secret room on the first floor. But this is just her wishful thinking, the fifth prince is not so calculating, this person is hiding too deeply, and has been playing a useless role, so that at the current level, he can't have an accident at all.

She can only exert herself in Ling Xi, as for Ling Chen, it is not much stronger than waste, and there is no comparison with Ling Xi at all. When I thought of Ling Xi, I thought of Lan Mengdie, as long as Lan Mengdie still remembered the love of the year. Ling Xi and the third prince's family affair is logical.

"Concubine Zhen came to the cold house, and the Ling family's manor is really full of brilliance. Ling Yunrong greeted him at the gate and greeted him politely.

"Second Elder, I'm not here to see you, my good sister Lan Mengdie?" Concubine Zhen said very affectionately.

"Back to Concubine Zhen, the affairs of the small clan will be complicated, the old family master and the eldest elder have passed away one after another, and the aftermath has just been completed, Mengdie is resting day and night, and the elder is spoiling his wife and has not yet informed her. Concubine Zhen used tea in the living room, and Elder Ben sent someone to call her over. ”

"When didn't you spoil your wife, when Mengdie gave birth to a child, you went to see her in disguise as a man, but I still covered for you. ”

"Is it? Elder Ben has been lost in the mountains for more than ten years, and many things have been forgotten. Please also ask the mother to forgive her sins. ”

"Lost in the mountains? This is the first time I've heard of this palace, and the small clan will say that you went out to do something. It turns out that there is such an inside story. ”

"Yes, a lot of times what you hear is not necessarily true, and what you see is not necessarily the truth. The human heart is sinister, and sometimes it is really not as simple as facing the fierce beast. ”

"Why do the two elders have so many feelings, maybe you are right, but the friendship in the world is real, I am like a butterfly with me. Concubine Zhen said kindly.

"Concubine Zhen, it's not what it used to be. You are the imperial princess, and you are a grass farmer. Blessed is Concubine Zhen, Niangniang!" Lan Mengdie said as she walked in from outside.

"Mengdie, what kind of princess grass people, I only remember that we are good sisters who have children next to each other in the yard. It's been more than 20 years, a few years ago I escaped into Buddhism, and then you left and life and death are uncertain. At that time, Xi'er was also sent to Lingshan, and I couldn't help it. ”

"Niangniang, it's an honor for you to remember this. Mengdie has been lost for a few years, and she has almost forgotten all the things in the past. Fortunately, the husband still remembered Mengdie, so he slowly exchanged some memories of Mengdie. I also know that Ling Xi is no longer stupid and stupid, and he has also cultivated his skills, which is also God's blessing, so that our family can be reunited. Lan Mengdie said helplessly.

"Oh, Mengdie, where have you been all these years, you don't remember anything from the past?"

"Concubine Zhen, Mengdie remembered some things, but forgot all her experiences in the past few years. It seems that Dream Butterfly's consciousness can only put very few memories, remembering the past and forgetting the near. Lan Mengdie said casually. Listening to Concubine Zhen's ears, she didn't believe a word.

"Mengdie, you're joking. I think we were the best sisters back then, and you gave birth to Ling Xi two days after I gave birth to the third prince, and we also set a baby kiss and wrote a marriage contract. ”

"Niangniang, I haven't remembered these things yet, husband, do you have any impressions?" Lan Mengdie asked confusedly.

"Die'er, my husband has been lost in the mountains for more than ten years, and all I think about is you, and I am afraid that I will forget and draw a lot of portraits of you in the cave. As for what Concubine Zhen said, Elder Ben really didn't know. ”

"Really, what a blessing it is for us to marry the royal family. Concubine Zhen, you said that we also wrote the marriage contract documents at the beginning, but the documents are still there?" Lan Mengdie said happily.

"Mengdie, this is a beautiful misunderstanding. When I escaped into Buddhism, I was going to spend my life in the nunnery, and the marriage contract was handed over to the emperor for safekeeping, and I only waited until Miss Ling Xi became an adult to marry into the royal family. Ling Xi's last Lingshan test, the third prince went up the mountain with the marriage contract document to pick up Ling Xi back, and the marriage contract document was burned by the sky. Several elders of the Great Clan Association were present, and later, Ling Chen had to marry into the Three Kings' Mansion in the morning, which caused Ling Xi's anger. When I came back, it was all over. But the position of the third prince's concubine has always been reserved for Miss Ling Xi. ”

"Oh, we haven't heard about these things from our daughter, and when we came back, she was already on her own. is also the head of a big family, her marriage jumped out of the scope of her parents' jurisdiction, Concubine Zhen's kindness, we are grateful, but we don't count this matter. Ling Yunrong's tone was very helpless.

"Yes, Concubine Zhen, if there is a marriage contract document, Ling Xi has no reason not to marry. This is also the law on the Red Eagle Continent. However, the marriage contract was burned by the fire, which was the will of heaven. Ling Xi is willing to marry into the Three Kings' Mansion, and we are powerless as fathers and mothers. Lan Mengdie also said regretfully.
