Chapter 315: Overlord
"Don't worry, it won't!" Yan Cai'er was well-behaved on the surface, but gritted her teeth in her heart and said: "If she dares to rob me of a man, I will kill her." ”
"It won't be good. Zhou Geng touched her lovely cheek, turned his head and asked the plague old man: "Then tell me about her situation and the reason for recommending her." ”
"Yes, sir. The plague old man said slowly: "This girl is the youngest princess of Xianbei Country, her mother is not a famous nobleman, and she has no power in the family, she is just an ordinary maid. ”
"One day the king was drunk and drunk, and after drinking, he became very animalistic, and slept with the maid he served, and the thing had happened, and the king was not easy to pay the bill, so he named the maid as a seven-grade beauty. ”
It is said that after that night the king never saw his maid again. Everyone thought that the matter would settle down, but soon after, the maid became pregnant, and the king had mixed feelings in his heart, but after all, it was his flesh and blood, and he issued an edict again, and named the maid as a noble person of the sixth grade. ”
"The concubines of the Forbidden City saw that the maid was rising and pregnant, and once they gave birth to a baby boy, their status would definitely improve again, so they all came to curry favor. There are people who please people, and naturally there are people who hate because of jealousy, such as the queen today. ”
The queen also happened to be pregnant at that time, and she was afraid that if she gave birth to a baby girl and the other party gave birth to a baby boy, her position would not be guaranteed, and she would probably lose the favor of the king from now on, so she began to plot secretly. ”
"The queen is harmful, but she doesn't dare to harm the unborn baby, because it is the flesh and blood of the king, and once it is traced, the matter will definitely be revealed, and her position as queen will not be 100% guaranteed. ”
So the queen came up with a plan, pretending to give the fetus in her womb to pray for fortune-telling and safety, and invited a very powerful fortune teller into the palace to tell her fortune with her maid. ”
"It's not a good thing, just release the problem. The soothsayer said that the queen was pregnant with a prince, accompanied by a king's destiny, and she must be a great character in the future, but there is a hurdle in her life, and if she moves in the past, she is a king, and if she can't get over, she will die. ”
No matter how the queen asked, the soothsayer shook his head and sighed, saying that this was a fortune and a heavenly chance, and that the number of fortunes would change, and that it would become more difficult to calculate, and that the danger would increase, and the queen would ask no more. ”
Yan Cai'er frowned and asked, "What about the maid?"
"The eldest princess Lilac is not in a hurry, wait for her subordinates to talk about it in detail!" the plague old man paused, and then said: "When it was the maid's turn to count, the soothsayer saw the vision at a glance, and after some hard work, the soothsayer actually spat blood from his mouth, pointed to the fetus in the maid's womb, and said that she was pregnant with a tyrant. ”
At that time, the king was greatly surprised, thinking that the Xianbei country would usher in an invincible and strong man, leading the people to sweep away the enemy, expanding the territory and achieving great achievements. ”
But it wasn't what they thought it was. The soothsayer's words shattered the king's joy and illusions, saying that the maid was pregnant with a princess, and also had an extraordinary destiny, and the princess's destiny and the king's personality would be in conflict, and even the entire Xianbei country would be greatly affected. ”
The king's disillusionment, and the discovery that he had such a bad daughter, was suddenly unhappy, but the queen laughed from ear to ear. ”
The king wanted to execute the maid and the fetus in her womb with all his heart, but the queen and all the ministers also proposed this, but somehow the king looked at the maid's pitiful eyes, and actually relented and did not kill him, and in turn said that the soothsayer had spread rumors, and finally killed the soothsayer. ”
Zhou Geng nodded thoughtfully, "It does fit the characteristics of the overlord, life is hard, and luck is harder, so what happens next?"
"When the soothsayer died, the queen and all the ministers shut up and did not dare to speak of it any more, and the king was in a state of sullen state for a long time. ”
"As the soothsayer said, the queen gave birth to a prince, and the maid gave birth to a princess, and the king was both happy and distressed, and spent all day thinking about tea and dinner, and could not sleep all night. ”
Eventually, the king ordered the maid and the newborn princess to be placed in the abandoned Deserted Palace, which, like its name, was deserted. ”
Ten years later, the maid occasionally felt the cold and died, in fact, if you think about it, you know that someone is playing ghosts, but no one pays attention to it, and the king has long forgotten about their mother and daughter. ”
Since then, the princess has lived alone, in order to save her life, she can endure any hardship, and besides, from a humble background, coupled with all kinds of rumors, no one wants to approach her at all. ”
"It is said that she was unlucky, and actually embarked on the path of cultivation, but the princess often has to put in more effort than others to achieve the same progress due to her poor talent. ”
Zhou Geng's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the plague old man with a questioning gaze, "Listen to your tone, you two seem to know each other very well!
The plague old man smiled awkwardly, "Hehehe...... She's actually my apprentice!"
Zhou even wanted to kill the plague old man with a fist, "The woman who has been doing it for a long time is actually your apprentice, and she has told so many touching stories, you are not tired after going around for a long time!"
The plague old man explained in a low voice: "Aren't I afraid that you won't agree, so I thought about her experience first, and you agreed as soon as you were moved?"
Zhou Geng covered his forehead, didn't know what to say, and after a while, he said: "Forget it, don't worry about you, take us to see the legendary overlord first." ”
"Okay!" the old man agreed, seeing that there were still three guys chasing him in the same place, "then what will they do?"
"Are they the heinous crimes?" asked Zhou Geng.
"No, don't count! We have been officials in the same dynasty for many years, and I haven't seen them kill innocents indiscriminately, only the orders issued by the king will be carried out, and they are in retreat on weekdays, so they shouldn't have much time to do big bad things, right?" said the plague old man, shaking his head.
If it weren't for the different positions of the group this time, the plague old man believed that they would not have attacked him, after all, the three of them had solved a lot of sieges for themselves before.
The lives of their families are still in the hands of the king, and they have to consider the safety of their families no matter what, which is a matter of necessity, and it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong.
"Since it is not a heinous crime, it is a heinous crime, so keep it for business. Zhou even unlocked the seal of this space, the flowers and trees swayed in the wind, the birds chirped loudly, the fallen leaves fell to the ground, and everything returned to normal.
The masked man and the other two companions were finally able to move, as if a certain memory was missing in their minds, as if the time difference had not been reversed, they looked up and left and right a few times, and found that the plague old man ran behind him at some point, and there were two more strangers at the scene.
