Chapter 218: Colorful Head
Mei Xi is the favorite concubine of the last king of the Xia Dynasty, Xia Ji, and is dedicated to the Shi clan to prevent Xia Ji from destroying the country, which is somewhat similar to the scene of Su Hu offering Daji in the Romance of the Gods. In order to please his sister, Xia Wei built a palace, built a Yaotai, and built a luxurious Qiong Outdoor Yaotai with jade, as a way to leave the palace, and finally said to drink and feast Yiner, ignoring political affairs. Xia Wei's silver luxury was tyrannical, did not accept virtuous people, killed ministers without permission, and imposed tyranny and heavy taxes to make the people unbearable, and the hearts of the people in the world were lost.
And in this world, the truth of Meixi's affair is another matter. Nujiao gave up the family for Dayu, and used secret techniques to instill her own cultivation in him and help him increase his strength. Dayu is also very grateful, and the two are very affectionate after they get married. Then Dayu was busy controlling the water, and gradually alienated the female Jiao, and even repeatedly passed the door without entering. Nujiao also understands him very well and has no resentment. After Dayu's success in controlling the water, Emperor Shun planned to give Chan the throne to him, but because Nujiao was born in the demon clan, so he could not be the emperor, so in the end, Dayu took his son, but gave up Nujiao, became the emperor of the world, Nujiao was sad and indignant, and finally turned into a stone statue.
Historians spoke highly of this, saying that Dayu gave up his lover for the sake of the world, but some people despised Dayu for being ruthless, and for the sake of power and wealth, he abandoned his wife and daughter Jiao who sacrificed everything for him, Ximei and Daji and others obviously belong to the latter.
Because Dayu abandoned Nujiao, the joyful Blazing Yuanzhu was still suppressed in Jiuding, and the joyful cultivation could not be recovered in the true immortal stage. In order to recapture the Blazing Yuan Pearl, Ximei has been trying her best, but she can't succeed. Finally, during the Xia Wei period, Ximei took advantage of the opportunity of Shi's sacrifice to her daughter, incarnated as Yuxi (the nine-tailed fox possessed Daji reproduction?), and went to charm Xia Wei to steal back the Blazing Yuan Pearl.
Xia Wei was really fascinated by Ximei's beauty and was fascinated, and Ximei also found out the location of Jiuding from Xia Wei's mouth. Just when Ximei wanted to retrieve the Blazing Yuan Pearl from Jiuding, she touched the blood seal on Jiuding, but was trapped by the power of Jiuding.
After Xia Wei learned about Ximei's experience, not only did he not blame, but comforted him with kind words, promising that when the time came, he would definitely open Jiuding and give the blazing yuan beads to Ximei. Ximei was greatly moved, and since then she has been willing to follow Xia Wei, and the two are in love, like glue.
Soon, Shang Tang under the planning of the famous minister Yi Yin, raised troops to attack the army, and the momentum was like a bamboo, approaching the important town of Mingtiao in Xia. When he got the news, he led his troops to Narujo to meet him. As a result, the Xia army was defeated, and Ximei desperately protected Xia Wei with the remnants of mana and fled to Nanchao, and Cheng Tang led the army to chase after him. At this time, Xia Wei actually imprisoned Ximei's power in order to survive, and dedicated it to Chengtang. Cheng Tang was originally attracted by the beauty of "Yu Xi", but Yi Yin said that Yu Xi was one of the banes of the Xia Dynasty, and persuaded Cheng Tang not to repeat the mistakes of the past. Cheng Tang followed the advice and immediately ordered Yu Xi to be beheaded, but still released Xia Wei and only exiled him - in fact, Cheng Tang had already bought off Xia Wei's favorite retainer Zhao Liang at the beginning of the war, and applied slow surname poison to Xia Wei, and a few days later, the last king of the Xia Dynasty was poisoned to death, announcing the complete end of the Xia Dynasty for nearly 500 years.
Ximei wanted to live and die with Xia Wei, but she didn't expect to be betrayed by Xia Wei, and immediately became extremely sad and desperate, and used the last peacock feather. Kong Xuan was not late this time, he came quickly, and at the last moment, after rescuing Ximei from the executioner's knife, he explained a few words and floated away.
Zhang Zixing showed a sudden look, no wonder Ximei has always claimed to Daji that she refused to enter the palace, and reprimanded the man Bo Xing, it turned out that there was such an encounter!
Zhang Zixing can also guess some of the things that followed: Ximei was disheartened after this incident, and returned to Xuanyuan's grave. The Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox and Jade Pipa Jing were very sympathetic to her experience, and the three of them became sisters, and from then on, they only practiced in the Xuanyuan Tomb until a few hundred years later, when Nuwa summoned the demon flag.
The female leader asked: "That nine-headed pheasant essence actually used blue blood condensation on itself, this forbidden technique is very terrifying, and the soul is tormented and burned by the fire of the primordial spirit at night, it can be said that it is impossible to survive, and it cannot be said to be able to die." According to Xiaomei, she seems to have a peculiar feeling for her second brother. ”
Kong Xuan said: "The fourth sister's words are not unfounded, in fact, she had some thoughts back then. But I only have the supreme avenue in my heart, and I don't have half a heart for such things as men and women, and I haven't pretended to be a color from beginning to end, and the reason why I saved her many times is also for the sake of cause and effect. She should have known what I meant, so she didn't dwell on it. ”
Zhang Zixing on the side thought for a while and said: "Ximei deliberately used blue blood to condense herself in front of the virtuous brother, I am afraid that there was a trace of luck, I hope that the virtuous brother can remember the feelings of the old people in the past and help her get rid of such suffering, perhaps...... I also want to test whether the virtuous brother can really bear to let her never be born. ”
In fact, Zhang Zixing still has a layer of meaning that has not been explained, that is, Ximei still has the last glimmer of hope for Kong Xuan's feelings, if Kong Xuan is really indifferent, she will be completely dead, and she is willing to let her soul suffer forever. Ximei once designed to kill the three daughters of Empress Jiang, confusing the court, and forcing Huang Roll to death, making Huang Feihu rebel, which can be described as an unforgivable crime. But from another point of view, since she was born, Ximei has been ill-fated, and she finally gave her true heart to a man, but she was ruthlessly deceived and betrayed, and now she has cast a forbidden spell on herself, which is not only pitiful, but also pathetic.
Why is she not willing to die happily, but would rather suffer the torment that life is worse than death? Does she want to leave a shadow in Kong Xuan's heart forever? Or is it an alternative revenge against fate? Or as she said to Daji, the more affection she gives, the more pain will become, so she is willing to fall into eternal pain?
So, what about Daji? Is Daji as pitiful as Ximei? Do you really have to wait until Daji also commits an unforgivable sin, and then solve it with her own hands? Or repeat a similar story? Zhang Zixing was shocked when he thought about this: Why did he suddenly think about this?
Ying Long's question to Kong Xuan interrupted Zhang Zixing's contemplation: "Second brother, I don't know how to crack the blue blood condensation?"
Kong Xuan replied, "This technique can only be lifted by the caster himself, and the caster must use more than three times the strength of the forbidden technique when he first cast it to lift it. Now Ximei has cast a forbidden spell on herself, unless she can break through the existing realm of the lower level of the Golden Immortal, she can only lift it. But judging from the situation in which she is currently imprisoned, it is absolutely impossible to do so. Unless ......"
The female squire asked, "Unless what?"
Kong Xuan glanced at Zhang Zixing and said, "Unless the imperial brother can comprehend the mystery of King Yu's Jiuding, take out her Blazing Yuan Bead that was originally suppressed in Jiuding, and let me perform a spell to help her break through to the Golden Immortal Intermediate Realm in the Green Bead, so that she can get out of trouble." Even if you can get out of this misfortune, your body will be destroyed, and only your soul will remain, and you will have to find another shell to be resurrected. ”
Zhang Zixing secretly thought, when he didn't know that he had obtained Jiuding, when he used the blue blood to condense, he should have been devastated, and the last glimmer of hope left behind was extremely slim, almost impossible. But once Kong Xuan can really do it, Ximei will definitely follow Kong Xuan with all her heart...... The female Lu asked: "Second brother, this joy is also infatuated with you, do you want to help her get out of trouble?"
Kong Xuan shook his head and replied: "My cause and effect with her are over, and besides, she committed a big crime in Chaoge and almost killed three imperial sisters-in-law, how can she be spared? ”
Zhang Zixing deliberately asked: "Brother Xian rescued him three times, but it was for the cause and effect of the fire crystal, but now for my sake, he has formed a greater cause and effect with Ximei." If I can comprehend the wonder of Jiuding and obtain the Blazing Yuan Pearl, is the virtuous brother willing to release his joy and flatter the suffering?"
"If it's a personal affair, I shouldn't save it, if the imperial brother has a plan, I should save it," Kong Xuan replied lightly, and asked rhetorically: "If Nada Ji is really infatuated with the imperial brother, what should the imperial brother do?"
Zhang Zixing thought for a long time, sighed, and replied: "Heaven is impermanent, I thought I could control it, but it is full of variables, it is uncontrollable, or it is better to adapt to the situation, and be at peace with the situation." It's just that there are some things that I have insisted on all my life, and no matter what it is, I can't change it. ”
Zhang Zixing's words were a little unanswered, Ying Long and Nu Lu seemed to understand it, only Kong Xuan seemed to understand something, and nodded slowly.
In any case, the matter of Ximei was finally resolved, and the rear of Chaoge was temporarily settled, and Shang Qingjun, with the help of Sancai Guyuan Dan, steadily improved his entry, and according to Kong Xuan's estimate, it was only a matter of time before he condensed Jindan. At this time, Nulu returned to Jinao Island to assist Hanzhi Immortal in refining the Nine Turns Tianyuan Pill, and Ying Long and Kong Xuan continued to sit in Chaoge while recuperating.
Although Prime Minister Shang Rong said that he was sick at home and did not see any guests, the rumors of his persecution intensified, and many of them were making trouble, causing a storm in the city, and even the people who believed in the Son of Heaven became suspicious. For a time, there were all kinds of absurd and exaggerated claims, and there were even versions that the Son of Heaven was incarnated as a demon, and he took pleasure in eating people in the palace every night.
At this moment, Bigan personally patrolled the city with his illness and entered the palace to express the Son of Heaven, stating that he could not bear the disease of heartache and that he had to recuperate for a period of time, and the Son of Heaven allowed it. The appearance of Bigan made all the rumors suddenly self-defeating, and people began to hate those who spread rumors, if anyone spread any unfavorable nonsense to the Son of Heaven at this time, even if they were not sent to the official, they would be beaten half to death.
In fact, that kind of exaggerated "propaganda" was deliberately created by Zhang Zixing himself, using a strategy to capture and indulge. When he was begging for rain, he had suffered from rumors, and if there were false, plausible, obscure and evocative gossip, it would be really difficult to control. And such an exaggerated statement makes it hard to believe, and then doubts the real surname of this rumor. After the momentum is successful, the "truth" will be used to completely smash the rumors, and the anti-customer will be the main thing in one fell swoop. At this time, even if Zhang Zixing really did something evil, no one believed it.
Bigan's explanation, Zhang Zixing's explanation to Daji is: The national teacher used thaumaturgy to temporarily keep Bigan's safety with the power of water. Although Bigan survived to save his surname, he finally lost his seven exquisite hearts, and his mind and body could never return to his old appearance, so he resigned and recuperated at home. Daji didn't doubt this, because at that time, Xiaoyaozi had said that there was a way to save Bigan's life, and at this time she knew that the main culprit of Xuanyuan's tomb was Xiaoyaozi, so Bigan's hatred had been greatly reduced, and it was a successful revenge to abolish the first minister of the Great Shang Emperor's uncle and prime minister.
Zhang Zixing remembered that the "expiration date" of the gambling contract given by Bixiao was about to expire, so he immediately dialed Bixiao's "phone".
As expected, Bi Xiao quickly connected to the communicator, and his voice revealed considerable dissatisfaction: "Good Your Majesty, you haven't talked to me for almost three months." Have you been tired of seeing the pink beauties in the palace recently, and suddenly remembered that I, a remote little girl, came?"
Zhang Zixing was stunned when he heard this, Bixiao directly compared himself with his concubine, and the tone was quite complaining. After Bi Xiao finished speaking, he also felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't help blushing for a while-he usually had accumulated a lot of words in his heart, and he wanted to tell him when he was communicating, but in the end, it was such an embarrassing scratch.
Zhang Zixing saw that she suddenly stopped talking, knowing that she was shy, she snorted, mixed up, and said: "I went west to return to Chaoge, and I wanted to come to Sanxian Island early in the morning, but unexpectedly something big happened, and it was not until now that it was properly handled, so I will contact you immediately." ”
Bixiao hurriedly asked what the big deal was, Zhang Zixing took advantage of his westward expedition to tempt the two princes, killed the queen and the two concubines, and forced Huang Feihu, the king of Wucheng, to injure the two righteous brothers Ying Long and his wife.
Bi Xiao couldn't help but be surprised when she heard that so many big things had happened, and when she heard that Zhang Zixing's three wives had fallen, she hurriedly comforted him not to be too sad, but Zhang Zixing said that there was another inside story, and he wanted to come to Sanxian Island to explain it to her in detail.
Bi Xiao didn't have much of a sad tone when he heard him before, and guessed that there must be a reason for it, and when he heard him say that he wanted to come to Sanxian Island, he immediately smiled and said: "Why can't you explain it in the communicator, and you still want to come to my Sanxian Island in person?
"I don't have any thoughts...... Zhang Zixing knew that Bi Xiao just said this on purpose, and it was actually her who took the initiative to propose to the Tongtian Sect Master when she came to Xiqi to help, "It's just that someone lost to me in a bet last time, so I took advantage of the unfinished period of March to get back the lottery head." ”
Bi Xiao said unconvinced: "That time was just because you were cunning and abnormal, I have been careless, so I fell into the scheme, if I come again next time, I will never fall into your trap again." ”
"Hugh is going to boast about Haikou, let's cash in on the lottery we lost last time!"
"Hmph, how are you going? If it's too much of a condition, beware of my Jin Jiao cutting ruthless!"
Zhang Zixing said with a smile: "Your gambling is too bad, you are so threatening, I don't dare to gamble with you next time." Let me ask, if I want to see your true face, have you been cut by Jin Jiao in one or two sections?"
Although this sentence was asked very casually, it revealed his true meaning, and there was a faint sense of temptation. Unexpectedly, Bi Xiao suddenly fell silent.
