Chapter 113: Confrontation
After the cultivation was promoted, Deng Jiugong did not dare to be careless, and still consolidated the realm as before. After cultivating into the earth immortal, condensed into a divine infant, his use of aura has reached a higher level, and the spell seems to be self-taught, and the samadhi true fire is pinched in his hand, and he can release a few zhang of fire with a finger.
On this day, the king sent someone to send a decree to let him enter the palace. Deng Jiugong was stunned, as the head of the generals, unless there was a war, the king would not see him alone in general, after all, this son of heaven was mediocre, ignoring the government and politics, and Kyushu was famous.
The chamberlain who passed the decree was called Liu Chuanxi, who was the favored attendant of the king of Xu, and he was the one who went to Xiqi last time to deliver the edict.
"Lord Liu, I don't know why Your Majesty invited me into the palace. ”
The last time he got a generous gift, Liu Chuanxi had a good impression of Deng Jiugong, and then he revealed the rumors and said: "Generalissimo, the slave maid doesn't know, but after His Majesty had dinner with the three ladies at noon, the slave maid received the will to leave the palace." ”
"Thank you, Lord Liu. ”
Deng Jiugong sneered in his heart, it seemed that the king of Xuan saw that he was Daji's idea.
After a while, the two entered the palace, walked through the imperial garden, and headed for Lutai. On the stage, in front of the dripping eaves, Deng Jiugong paid a greeting: "Minister Deng Jiugong greets Your Majesty." ”
There are three palace women around the king, all of whom are talented and beautiful, and their eyebrows are charming, revealing a romantic posture, especially the woman in the middle, who is even more beautiful and temperamental, and has a touching and charming style.
Fortunately, she is a cultivator, otherwise ordinary people would look at her and her mind would involuntarily fall into it, unable to extricate herself.
With just one glance, Deng Jiugong recognized that the woman in the middle was Daji, and it was she who fascinated the King of Xuan and buried Cheng Tang Jiangshan completely.
When the king saw Deng Jiugong coming, he said with a pleasant face: "Deng Qing is exempt from courtesy." ”
Deng Jiugong got up and stood with his hands arched, his eyes not squinting, he was thinking in his heart that it would be good for Daji to see him. It's just that he can't figure out what her purpose is that he and Daji have never met, let alone a grudge.
"Deng Qing's habit of living in Chaoge. ”
King Su was in a good mood and took the initiative to ask about Deng Jiugong's daily life. The affairs of the mansion were handled by Zhang Qian, and the king was still satisfied with his ability to do things.
Deng Jiugong was stunned, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the king of Xu, so he had to reply: "Your Majesty's Hongfu, Weichen is very used to living." ”
"Habit is fine. ”
As soon as the words fell, Daji on the side coughed, and Wang Zheng said: "Deng Qing, I have called you here because there is a big matter that you need to do. ”
Sure enough, it was not a good thing, Deng Jiugong glanced at Daji, and said: "The matter of eating the king, the matter of loyalty to the king, can serve His Majesty, and the minister has no shirk responsibility." ”
The king praised: "Good. Since I accepted the three concubines, they have worked diligently to take care of the harem for me, so that I can concentrate on the government, which is really due to the society. Therefore, I ordered you to build a palace in the west of the city, the scale of which is the same as that of Nuwa Palace, and to build three golden statues in the appearance of the three maidens, as the goddesses of the town palace, for the people of Chaoge to worship, in order to show the royal kindness. ”
When Deng Jiugong heard this, he almost didn't laugh out loud, concentrating on politics, how thick does the king have to be to say such brazen words. Daji and a few people wanted to build a palace, Deng Jiugong instinctively felt that this matter was boring, but he couldn't guess Daji's true intentions with only one scale and half a claw.
glanced at Daji and the others, and saw that her eyes were teasing and provocative, Deng Jiugong didn't know what he meant, and he didn't know where he offended her. This nine-tailed fox has average skills, and her demagogic ability is extremely powerful, although she is not afraid of her, but she is careful.
Seeing that the king's gaze fell on him, Deng Jiugong said slowly: "Your Majesty orders, and the ministers should do it." It's just that the construction of the palace is huge, and I am afraid that it can be completed overnight. ”
The king of Xuan bowed his head and said: "What Deng Qing said is good, then it depends on how long it will take." ”
Deng Jiu said fairly: "The status of the three mothers is noble, the palace must not be built hastily, the pattern and materials can not be taken from local materials, it is necessary to draw a map of the palace, and then build according to the map, located in the west of the city, and the palace is far away." ”
The three of them nodded thoughtfully, they have always lived extravagantly, they are very particular about food and clothing, pay attention to pomp, and they are construction officials, they must use the best materials and the most beautiful pattern, otherwise it is difficult to show the royal bearing.
Deng Jiugong continued: "Although the minister has never seen the Nuwa Palace, the minister also knows that the Nuwa Niangniang is an ancient goddess, and the palace must be majestic and staggered, and the objects are placed just right, so as to bring out the dignity of the Niangniang." Therefore, the palace built by the three mothers is roughly similar, carved beams and painted buildings, Qionglou Yuyu, and the style is more ingenious to win the heavenly palace, so as to show the ingenious side. The project is huge, and it is initially expected that it will take 10 years and 8 years to complete. ”
Xiqi has stopped for the time being, but from Deng Jiugong's point of view, at most ten years, Jiang Ziya will still make a comeback, and then the world will break out again, and the gods and Buddhas of the heavens will also rush to the battlefield.
Therefore, ten years later, when the palace is completed, he is already far away from Chaoge, and Daji is just looking for trouble for himself, and it is useless.
When the king heard this, he was disappointed, so he said to Daji: "Royal wife, this palace will be built for ten years, or forget it." ”
Daji's eyes rolled, and she said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, you have always promised your concubines all your promises, how can you break your word." The matter of the palace, the concubines also know that the project is huge, and for others, it may take ten years, but ......"
Speaking of this, she paused, glanced at Deng Jiugong, and continued: "I think that since the imperial court's westward expedition, it has repeatedly lost troops and generals, and Generalissimo Deng alone has been able to win repeatedly. ”
When Deng Jiugong heard this, he complained bitterly in his heart, this Da had made it clear that he was targeting herself, and she must have offended her in something, otherwise she would not have made trouble for no reason. This method is the same as when she straightened Jiang Ziya, "Your Majesty, Weichen is panicked, the time that the queen mother said is too difficult for the minister, and the minister is difficult to do." ”
The king said to Daji: "Royal wife, although Deng Qing's ability is excellent, he is not an omnipotent immortal, and this half a year is indeed too short. ”
If it were someone else, King Su would definitely have a final word at this time, he only wanted the result, as for how difficult the process was, it was not within his scope of consideration. But Deng Jiugong has outstanding merits and speaks interestingly, he likes it very much, so he speaks for him.
Da Ji was surprised, a little strange King Xuan went against her will, frowned, she said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the generalissimo can fight with a Taoist warlock like Jiang Ziya without defeat, it can be seen that he is a person with unique skills, and half a year is enough." ”
When the king heard this, he suddenly felt reasonable, so he said to Deng Jiu: "Deng Qing, what the queen said is good, just half a year, I want to see a magnificent palace, otherwise I will ask you for the crime." ”
Daji was a little proud in his eyes, glanced at Deng Jiugong, and said secretly: "Deng Jiugong, tell you to look down on the palace, now it's up to you to make a difference." She is not an ignorant woman, and she knows that it is impossible to build a palace in half a year with the current manpower and material resources of the imperial court.
Deng Jiugong sighed in his heart and said, "The minister's will." ”
I don't want to provoke the three demons, but the three demons take the initiative to provoke themselves, or not, since they don't measure themselves, then seize the opportunity and let them bear the price of provoking themselves. Jiang Ziya, who has the advantage, is not her opponent, let alone Daji, all her means come from the imperial power, but unfortunately the imperial power has no binding force on her.
In the matter of the palace, he agreed to come down, no matter what the result is, it depends on Daji's follow-up means.
