After the hero goes crazy
Chapter 386 Has a decision
Chapter 386 Has a decision
Daqing died in 31 generations—this statement came from Mr. Xu of the Bianji family 700 years ago.
The Bianji tribe has the power to manipulate time. Liu Bingzhou had witnessed the miraculous power of this tribe at Yingtian Bookstore more than 30 years ago.
Since Xu Zhao was able to say such words 700 years ago, it proves that he has probably spied on what happened in the future.
In other words, Daqing is doomed to perish, and Emperor Shenqi is already the last emperor.
So what's so strange about changing dynasties?
There was a flash of light in Liu Bingzhou's eyes, and he didn't say it out loud, but Yao Shouning understood his inner voice strangely.
Yao Ruoyun was worried.
He was born in Daqing, and he received an education of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. At this time, what his grandfather and sister said had a great spiritual impact on his previous cognition.
Liu Bingzhou looked at this upright and honest grandson with a little affection. He had a good character and worked hard in his studies, but his temperament was a little staid, and he was not as spirited as Yao Shouning.
But Yao Ruoyun has a good nature, he is filial and obedient, he wanted to give advice, so he deliberately said:
"After all, nothing in this world is eternal."
Kingship is not eternal, and the Daqing Dynasty is not eternal either.
"In the long river of time, the Daqing Dynasty, which controlled the power of the world, only stole these 700 years."
He said softly:
"Looking at the past and present, the people are still the same people, but the change of dynasties is unknown. It can be seen that the so-called dynasties and country names are just passers-by in time."
Liu Bingzhou once experienced Yingtian Bookstore, so he has his own understanding of time.
More than 30 years ago, Mr. Kongshan's wonderful anchor theory had a profound impact on him. He smiled and said:
"The world does not belong to the kingship, and the people do not belong to the kingship. In my opinion, the king is only bound by the power to move forward in the river of time and space. If he occupies the power for a while, he will eventually become a passer-by in the long stream of time. "
The meaning in his words reveals thoughts that are too shocking for Yao Ruoyun.
Yao Ruoyun was so upset that she subconsciously went to look at her sister, but saw Yao Shouning thoughtful and didn't say a word.
"Ruoyun, you were born in Daqing, and you received the education of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country since childhood, so you can't figure out these things for the time being. Grandpa thinks it's nothing unusual, but my senior sister, if you can figure it out..." He said up to this point, There was a pause.
After a while, he laughed 'hehe' and waved his hands:
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that."
Yao Shouning quickly calmed down and asked:
"Grandfather, if what I predicted is true, then Uncle's trip will go smoothly."
Su Wenfang will persuade Chu Shaolian, and then promote a temporary reconciliation between Emperor Shenqi and Gu Huanzhi, but such changes will also lead to the disintegration of Daqing.
"We'll wait and see what happens, and we'll just be prepared to deal with it!"
……
After the three people talked, just as Yao Shouning said, Su Wenfang met with his old friend Chu Shaolian, and took advantage of him to persuade Chu Xiaotong to appease Emperor Qidi.
On the other side, Liu Bingzhou also met Zhu Hengrui.
Not long after, Zhu Hengrui and Lu Wuji went in and out of the Gu family's mansion. Half a month later, in the court hall, the old and new emperors, who were always fighting endlessly, shook hands and made peace.
Gu Huanzhi came forward in person and said: The new emperor is young and unable to control the overall situation for the time being, please ask Emperor Shenqi to listen to the government behind the curtain and regain power.
Emperor Shenqi couldn't refuse at the beginning, but after that Gu Huanzhi repeatedly wrote letters, Emperor Shenqi reluctantly responded and took back the seal of the emperor.
After he regained power, he issued a decree.
Due to the emergence of evil spirits in the world, the imperial court will send the Zhenmagic Division to arrest the evil spirits in the city. The Department of Criminal Prisons and the Dingguo Shenwu General's Mansion will help.
In terms of internal affairs, Gu Huanzhi led the formation of imperial envoys, who went to the south of the Yangtze River to borrow rice to help Shendu through the crisis.
There is a shortage of manpower in the capital, and Yao Hui, who was at home due to injury, was also reactivated.
With the promulgation of decrees one after another, it seems that everything is developing in a good direction.
In Yao's house, Sister Yao Shouning also sat together and chatted some gossips to pass the time.
"...I heard that several members of Mr. Zhao's family who were bitten and turned into demons were taken away by the people from the Zhenmagic Division. The Zhao family was relieved, but also a little worried."
Dong Kui sat next to Yao Shouning, talking about the neighbor next door: "I heard from Jin Huan in the morning that among those who were taken away was Aunt Wang's son, and Aunt Wang couldn't keep her eyes open from crying."
It is always a hidden danger for demonized people to go crazy and hurt others. Being locked up at home not only worries the Zhao family, but also the neighbors next door.
Now that the court has taken action, others are naturally relieved.
However, for the family members of those who were mutated by the evil spirit, falling into the hands of Zhenmasi is like entering the eighteenth level of hell.
In the past, Zhenma Division had a notorious reputation, and those who were arrested often never returned. Seeing their loved ones being arrested, they naturally cried bitterly.
"Miss, miss—" Mong Kui said for a long time, but she didn't get a response, so she couldn't help but glanced at the people around her.
Yao Shouning frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
And Yao Wanning's face was slightly pale, and her eyes were dull, as if in a daze.
Su Miaozhen held the embroidery frame in her hand, and did not stitch for a long time.
Today is really strange, why does everyone seem to have something on their minds?
"Miss." Dong Kui yelled again, and Yao Shouning came back to his senses: "...what's wrong?"
After she finished speaking, she remembered what Mallow had said before, coughed twice and asked:
"You talked about the Zhao family."
"It has already been said that the son of Aunt Wang of the Zhao family was taken away by Zhenmasi!" Dong Kui couldn't help but sighed:
"Aunt Wang is just such a son, crying very sadly, do you think he can come back?"
Although Mong Kui asked this, her eyes were filled with sobs, obviously she already had the answer in her heart.
"I--"
According to Zhenmasi's actions, those who were arrested in the name of evil spirits should have never returned.
Yao Shouning wanted to shake her head too, but just as the words came to her lips, a scene flashed through her mind quickly.
It was an announcement in front of an imperial list in the city, and a list was posted. Because the screen flashed too fast, she couldn't read the whole text clearly, but she caught a line of keywords: I will decide, and the demon——
The picture was fleeting, and she couldn't see the words behind it clearly.
At the same time, a bad premonition flooded her heart, she murmured:
"I think they can come back..."
Emperor Shenqi may be about to do something big.
Her restless appearance alarmed Yao Wanning who was at the side, and Su Miaozhen also put down the embroidery frame in her hand, and asked her what happened in a low voice.
"I can't tell." Yao Shouning shook his head.
She frowned and glanced at Mong Kui, the girl was happy for Aunt Wang because of her answer.
The people in front of him were all his sisters. Yao Shouning thought about it, but he didn't hide it from them:
"I always feel that the emperor may cause big things."
She said:
"Gu Xiang was sent away from the capital, and the little emperor was left alone."
Yao Wanning heard the words and spoke to her sister with force:
"I heard that Chu Xiaotong's eldest son was temporarily appointed as a young teacher, and has already entered and left the East Palace to protect the young emperor."
Recently, her energy is obviously not as good as before, she looks preoccupied, and her body has lost a lot of weight, but her stomach is getting bigger, which is obviously not right.
It's a pity that many things happened at home, which made the family have no time to be distracted and paid less attention to her.
"Isn't the Chu family loyal to the old emperor?" Su Miaozhen also interrupted and asked.
It is no secret that the two generations of emperors struggled for power after the previous quarrel. If it hadn't been for the evil and evil things that were so loud and covered up, the streets would probably be full of gossip.
But even so, in many official families, those who have no worries about food and clothing for the time being will still discuss a few words in private.
"The Chu family may have two minds." Yao Shouning whispered as he thought of the scene he had predicted earlier.
"I just 'saw' that the emperor will issue a list——"
After finishing speaking, she said a few words she saw:
"...and the demon—" she said in distress:
"I didn't see it clearly. According to my sister and cousin's guess, what word do you think will be behind?"
"Is it irreconcilable?" Su Miaozhen took the lead in guessing.
She has been deeply harmed by the fox king, and now her face is imprinted for life, her surface is gentle and gentle, but in fact she is very resentful in her heart, so after hearing Yao Shouning's words, her first thought was to think that after the court learned of the existence of evil spirits, it was going to raise the whole country. The power to exterminate evil spirits.
Yao Wanning, on the other hand, had a delicate mind. Hearing the words, she didn't take the lead in expressing her opinion. Instead, she thought for a while before saying in a soft voice:
"Coexist with demons?"
As soon as these words were finished, he was shocked like a stone breaking the sky.
The faces of the girls all changed color, Su Miaozhen trembled at the tip of her nose, and said:
"This can't be?!"
Yao Shouning's lips moved, and she thought it was impossible at first, but just after her cousin finished speaking, she had another thought in her heart: Maybe what my sister said was correct.
She looked at Yao Wanning, and Yao Wanning said:
"The disposition of the Supreme Emperor—" she stopped here, and said instead:
"Uncle said that these people who are currently infected by the demon will gradually regain their senses sooner or later." She sighed and looked down at her own reflection behind her.
Upon closer inspection, her shadow was longer than those of the girls, and another shadow was vaguely covered inside. Yao Shouning followed her line of sight, as if he could see Zhu Shizhen's ghost standing there silently.
She was puzzled.
At the Yingtian Bookstore that day, Zhu Shizhen learned about the messy things he would do with his dead body in the future, so he recognized the marriage, and separated a ghost to attach to the copper coin as a dowry gift, and gave it to Yao Wanning.
For Yao Wanning, she and the "River God" dreamed of first marriage and then love, and had a child. Now the two are finally "reunited". The family knows this well, and the child in Yao Wanning's womb has passed bright since then. Lu, logically speaking, it is considered a happy event, but why is there no joy on my sister's face?
Yao Shouning was about to ask in detail, but Yao Wanning raised his head and said:
"There are quite a few of these people. Killing them all is not beneficial to the Supreme Emperor."
"But how is this possible?!" Su Miaozhen couldn't accept such a result:
"How can humans and demons co-exist?" She and the Fox King once lived together, so she knows the horror of demons and the threat they pose to human beings.
Even if the demon race is forced by the status quo and temporarily agrees to coexist with the human race, but it is not my race, its heart will be different. After a long time, once humans relax their vigilance, the evil spirits will make a comeback and reproduce the chaos of the sky demon 700 years ago.
It's just that 700 years ago, Taizu and others killed demons and revolted and established a new dynasty. I don't know when this chaos will continue 700 years later.
A demon who has suffered a loss may not give humans such an opportunity again, Su Miaozhen shook her head:
"Impossible, impossible. Impossible!"
She said three 'impossible' in a row, as if to vent her depression in her heart:
"The Daqing Dynasty established the country by killing demons, and the Supreme Emperor is also a descendant of the royal family. If he really made the decision to coexist with demons, how could he be worthy of his ancestors?"
After speaking, she shook her head as if convincing herself:
"Impossible! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
With Yao Wanning's intelligence, it is natural to see that Su Miaozhen's rebuttal is not aimed at herself.
This cousin has been deeply harmed by demons, and she hates the demon race so much that she naturally does not want humans and demons to coexist.
She smiled and sighed:
"Yeah, normal people know it's impossible."
But is Emperor Shen Qi still normal?
This question appeared in the minds of several girls.
The Fox King appeared that day, and a border gate appeared in the capital city of God. The city was in chaos, and there were countless casualties. This absurd emperor made a move that is difficult for normal people to understand: when he was in danger, he left the people and wanted to escape, and passed the throne to the returnee. The fourth prince who is underage.
After the matter subsided, he was unwilling to lose power, and then there was a scandal involving the royal father and son fighting for power.
Although after mediation by various parties, the two sides temporarily reached a delicate balance, but now, I am afraid that everyone knows the madness in the old emperor's heart, and it is not surprising that he can make such an unimaginable decision.
"Could the eldest princess and Xiang Gu think the same way?" She asked calmly.
"That's for sure." Su Miaozhen replied without hesitation.
After hearing this, Yao Shouning finally understood the meaning of her sister's words:
"Then it's over." She sighed, Su Miao was so confused, she turned to her and asked:
"Shouning, don't get confused, I don't understand—"
"What my sister means is that the Supreme Emperor is very likely to oppose the eldest princess and Gu et al."
The more they don't allow it, the old emperor might go crazy and do it.
Yao Wanning nodded:
"The most important thing is that he has a national teacher by his side."
In this way, Su Miaozhen also understood that Chen Taiwei's background was unknown, and he was full of evil spirits. When something happened to Yao's family, he and the fox demon came here hand in hand. There may have been collusion between this person and the demon.
With him around, maybe the old emperor would really do such a ridiculous thing!
"It's over." Su Miao really bit her lower lip unwillingly.
She could feel her two slightly protruding sharp canines touching the fine hair on the outside of her lips, and she could feel the weirdness under her lips without reaching out to touch them.
Resentment surged in the girl's heart, all of this was caused by evil spirits.
If it wasn't for my father coming to the God Capital and being bewitched by the evil spirits, I'm afraid I would lose my life in a muddle at some point.
She knew that the fox king did all this for the return of the sky demon clan to the human world. She was harmed by the fox king, so how could she want to see this demon get what she wanted?
"I'll talk to my grandfather about it."
Yao Shouning couldn't sit still anymore, he got up and said.
"You can talk about it." Yao Wanning responded, but she sat without moving:
"I won't go." She thumped her leg and squeezed out a smile:
"I'm very tired recently, I'll sit here for a while."
My sister didn't seem happy - Yao Shouning hesitated a little.
Yao Wanning has been sick since she was a child. Although she is gentle and obedient on the surface, she is actually open-minded in her heart, and she rarely has such a sentimental demeanor.
Her depression at this time is obviously trapped by love.
'Love'...
Yao Shouning thought of this, and suddenly thought of Shi Zi.
Today, the son's intentions are probably only that he thinks he has concealed it well, others have already seen it, and she naturally knew it long ago.
It is also strange to say.
When Wen Jingsui expressed his heart to her, she sensed that something was wrong, so she bluntly refused.
But when Lu Zhi wanted to express it, she hesitated, so she had no choice but to procrastinate.
Does she like Shizi?Yao Shouning couldn't tell.
It's just that she is sure that she doesn't hate the prince, and she doesn't want him to be sad.
He was kind, affectionate, and righteous to her, and because he saved Liu Shi, he was contaminated with karma and ruined his luck, so he was entangled with monsters and made many jokes.
She has seen this young man in fresh clothes and angry horses, she has also seen his desolate appearance, and she has experienced his narrow-mindedness of revenge, but she has also shared with him adversity, and has been protected by him when facing danger several times.
Yao Shouning came back to his senses, only to realize that he and Shizi were deeply entangled.
If she is with him, can she accept it?
As soon as this question came to Yao Shouning's mind, she already had the answer.
She still doesn't know whether she likes Shizi's feelings, but she doesn't reject being with Shizi.
Memories of the past came to her mind, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
After thinking about it, the son has many advantages——
He is good-looking, and his skills are not bad, the most important thing is that he is obedient, and he can bear beating him...
His mother, the eldest princess, has a bold personality and gets along well with her. Knowing her personality, she doesn't keep preaching every time she sees her. If the son doesn't listen to her in the future, she can still sue the eldest princess, and the eldest princess will definitely beat him ...
The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was feasible, and she couldn't help laughing out "hehe".
"... Shou Ning, Shou Ning." At this moment, someone suddenly pushed her.
"Ah!" Yao Shouning woke up suddenly, and when he turned his head, he saw Su Miao really looking at her with an inexplicable expression:
"I said to find my grandfather, why are you suddenly in a daze?"
"No, it's okay——" Yao Shouning came back to his senses, and realized that he had been thinking wildly before, and his cheeks were burning like fire, bleeding red:
"Just thinking about something."
"What are you thinking about?" Su Miaozhen saw that her peach cheeks were flushed, and the anger in her heart dropped sharply, and she suddenly teased:
"Remember Shizi?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw panic in Yao Shouning's eyes, and her face turned even redder.
"No...no...ah..." She desperately waved her hands, trying to defend:
"I was thinking about other things, what my sister said just now..."
"What does the son have to do with me? Why would I think of him out of nowhere?" At this time, she didn't have 300 taels of silver and tried to calm down, but her hands were shaking non-stop.
'poof. Su Miaozhen couldn't help laughing out loud, and sighed in her heart: Why didn't I find Shouning so cute before?What was in her heart was revealed on her face, and she would not hide it at all.As expected, I was deceived by evil spirits before, so how could I think that Yao Shouning is a treacherous and cunning man, full of lies?
"Really cousin!" She was a little anxious, and said quickly:
"What I'm really thinking about is what my sister said, and definitely not thinking about—Shizi—" After she said this, she also felt a little guilty, and her voice gradually softened.
Su Miaozhen's voice rang in her ears: Shouning is really simple.
Yao Shouning: "..."
What simplicity?She just figured out her own mind and was at a loss for a while.
She used to be able to hear her cousin's 'heart', but she remained calm, and even the fox demon was deceived by herself, so it can be seen that she can tell lies...
"Let's go, let's go find our grandfather, tell the elders about these things, and let them decide." Su Miaozhen took her hand, she nodded, and then thought of the memories of Zeng and her son.
On the carriage in Zhuzi Lane that day, Lu Zhi mentioned the relationship between Wen Jingsui and Gu Huanzhi. At that time, he laughed at her as a daughter of an official family, but she was not sensitive to government affairs.
At that time, she retorted confidently, but she didn't expect that now she would have the time to discuss the affairs of the court with her sisters at home.
"..." I didn't expect to turn my mind to Shizi again without knowing it.
Yao Shouning glanced at his cousin with some guilt, but fortunately, Su Miao really put all her heart on evil spirits, and didn't realize the small thoughts of the girl beside her, so her high-pitched heart fell back to the original place.
I don't know how the son is doing recently - half a month ago, he was ordered by the eldest princess to go to Jindi, intending to fetch Yinyin wood to build a coffin for Liu's recovery, and he hasn't returned to Shendu yet.
Her mind was drifting away, and the brows were gradually stained with melancholy.
……
When the two sisters came to look for Liu Bingzhou, they happened to meet the eldest princess.
She came here in private, dressed up like a military household.
But she is tall, and she is still very eye-catching when she sits there.
The conversation between her and Liu Bingzhou didn't seem to be pleasant, and the atmosphere was a little stiff. When she saw Yao Shouning coming over, she was very happy:
"Shou Ning is here."
The eldest princess stretched out her hand to pull her:
"I haven't seen you for a long time, you seem to be thinner."
She smiled and said a few words to Yao Shouning, and then she noticed Su Miaozhen beside her.
Su Miao's heartfelt resentment towards evil spirits and Emperor Shenqi's anger turned into a guilty conscience the moment she saw the eldest princess.
After regaining her senses, she remembered what she had done to Shizi before, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground and go in.
"Long, long princess."
It's just that the eldest princess turned her eyes, and she couldn't escape, so she could only bite the bullet and go forward to say hello.
In her impression, the eldest princess is not easy to deal with.
This high-status Emperor Ji was born with arrogance, fierce temperament and hated her very much, which made her feel afraid at the first sight.
Unexpectedly, the eldest princess did not ignore her, but nodded at her:
"Miss Su."
Her attitude is no different from that of ordinary elders. Obviously, the dislike for her in the past was not for her, but for the past—or in other words, for the Fox King.
The princess herself didn't blame her!
When Su Miaozhen thought of this, she was excited, her eyes turned red, and she said with enthusiasm:
"Princess, I was wrong before—"
"That's not your fault, it's the evil spirit's fault." The eldest princess interrupted her, because with her heart, it was unreasonable to hold grudges against a junior.
She waved her hand nonchalantly:
"In the future, I will always try to find a way to get it back from that demon fox, so don't cry," after finishing speaking, he complained:
"I don't know how to coax children."
Su Miaozhen wanted to laugh when she heard the words, but she still responded in a low voice:
"Yes."
After the greetings were over, Liu Bingzhou asked:
"Shouning, what are you doing here?"
He understood Yao Shouning's character, if there was no important matter, it would be impossible for him and Su Miaozhen to come to him suddenly at this time.
Having said that, he turned his head and glanced at the eldest princess, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"I—" Yao Shouning was about to speak, but Liu Bingzhou suddenly interrupted her with his hand, and looked at Zhu Hengrui:
"Senior sister, you have received the emperor's order, do you want to leave the city in a hurry, or do you listen to Shouning before leaving?"
He was smiling, and Zhu Hengrui couldn't help but rolled his eyes:
"No matter how urgent you are, you can't rush this moment."
Yao Shouning was a little curious when he heard this:
"Is the princess going to leave the capital?"
"That's right." Zhu Hengrui nodded, not hiding anything from her:
"The emperor asked me to go to Jinzhou to borrow some food." The 'emperor' she was referring to must not be Emperor Shenqi, but Zhu Jingcun.
However, Zhu Jingcun now has no name but no power, and the actual order to let her go to Jinzhou was still issued by Emperor Shenqi.
After she finished speaking, she subconsciously looked at Liu Bingzhou, remembering what he had said earlier: to cover one's ears and steal one's bell.
Liu Bingzhou thinks that Daqing will be destroyed sooner or later, and the eldest princess should make preparations early.
But she was born in the imperial family and was raised by Daqing. The thoughts of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism were imprinted in her mind. How easy is it to break the shackles?
Before Yao Shouning came, the two of them had an unhappy conversation. The eldest princess was upset, but when she looked at Yao Shouning, her eyes were full of smiles:
"My Jin land is rich, and it is also the second granary besides Jiangnan."
When the first emperor was there, he assigned such a place to his beloved daughter as a fief early on. Over the years, the eldest princess managed it like an iron bucket. Emperor Shenqi wanted to intervene several times, but there was nothing he could do.
If there were differences between the siblings in the past, it would be a dream for Emperor Shenqi to calculate the property in the hands of the eldest princess.
But now that the country is in trouble, how can the eldest princess remember the grievances between the two, so naturally she must first take out the food for emergency.
"I have indeed accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. If I use it for disaster relief, it may be able to quell this disaster and bring peace to the world."
"It's just calming down temporarily." Liu Bingzhou added on the side:
"You know very well where the trouble lies."
The eldest princess ignored him and just looked at Yao Shouning:
"What's the matter with Shouning here?"
"I do have something."
When it came to business, Yao Shouning's expression turned serious:
"When we sisters were chatting before, I 'saw' some future events."
Everyone already knows her predictive ability, so it must be no small matter for her to pay so much attention to it.
The eldest princess and Liu Bingzhou looked at each other, they temporarily put aside their previous dispute, and looked at Yao Shouning.
The two didn't open their mouths to ask more questions, but Su Miaozhen added:
"Shou Ning 'saw' the announcement issued by the emperor, which said—" She paused for a while.
It's not that Su Miaozhen intends to show off, but she is not sure what kind of future Yao Shouning sees, so she can only say:
"It is said in the announcement that I will decide, and the demon—"
The expressions of the two elders gradually became serious, which made Su Miao feel a little uneasy, and said in a low voice:
"I think it's - 'incompatible with the demon', but Cousin Wanning thinks it's 'coexist with the demon'."
Liu Bingzhou was stunned.
"Zhu Dingchen dares!"
Zhu Hengrui gasped and let out a low growl.
Although she said so, a sense of desolation gradually permeated from her eyes, turning into disappointment and resentment.
This disappointment was far deeper than when he witnessed Emperor Shenqi in Miyagi want to kill his son in order to fight for the throne.
Su Miaozhen shrank her head and dared not speak out.
Yao Shouning's sensitivity is extremely strong, and he can feel the anger in the eldest princess' heart at this moment.
"He, Zhu Dingchen, didn't dare—he didn't dare—"
She walked around the room a little restlessly, her hands clenched into fists, her chest rising and falling.
Even though he said so, Yao Shouning heard the voice of the eldest princess: she had the same thought as Yao Wanning, and guessed that Emperor Shenqi might be aiming to coexist with the demon.
Because of the same father and half mother as Emperor Shenqi, the two have been at odds for many years, and she has a deeper understanding of Emperor Shenqi than Yao Wanning.
I'm afraid that he not only wants to coexist with the Yaozu, but in the current situation, he may also want to use the power of the Yaozu to eradicate dissidents and consolidate his power.
It's just that the eldest princess couldn't believe it.
At this time, Liu Bingzhou wanted to push her:
"Senior Sister—"
The eldest princess was shocked, and suddenly there was water in her eyes, and said in a hissed voice:
"How dare he, how dare he? When Dad was here, he swore with his own mouth that he would govern the country well and love the people like a son—"
"But later he abused Taoism, raised taxes, indulged in alchemy, believed in evil ways, and was ungrateful..." As she spoke, her voice became quieter, her eyes were firm, and she obviously had an idea in her heart.
Liu Bingzhou heaved a long sigh of relief, and the princess took a deep breath:
"The people's livelihood is the most important thing. This trip to Jindi, I must go." After finishing speaking, she sneered:
"When Gu Huanzhi left, he was also worried that things might change."
As the emperor's father-in-law, Gu Huanzhi, who has dealt with Emperor Shenqi for many years, also knows that Emperor Shenqi is ruthless. When he left, he was worried that Emperor Shenqi would attack the little emperor. Protect the little emperor.
At that time, as soon as he said the words, he immediately thought of something: How could Emperor Shenqi not be able to predict things that he could predict?
Maybe as soon as he left, Zhu Hengrui would be sent out of Shendu City by Emperor Shenqi under another name.
Today, the only ones that the eldest princess can't refuse are the hundreds of thousands of people in the city who are about to run out of food and food.
The poison of a tiger does not eat its offspring, but at this moment, Emperor Shenqi is more poisonous than a tiger, more vicious than a demon!
Before leaving, Gu Huanzhi entrusted Zhu Jingcun to the care of Chu Xiaotong's son. It was a risky move, and he wanted to take this opportunity to share the honor and disgrace of the Chu family, and he also wanted to find a chance for the little emperor.
When the Eldest Princess sent him out of the city, he had already anticipated what would happen next. When he was leaving, the original words he said to the Eldest Princess were:
"You and I don't leave Beijing, and good shows don't go on stage."
Yao Shouning's words now fulfilled his guess that day.
The eldest princess has made up her mind:
"I'm going to Jin, please take care of Shendu." She followed Zhang Raozhi when she was young, and she knew the strangeness of Confucianism.
After Liu Bingzhou entered Beijing, he made a fuss and showed his supernatural powers twice, but this was not his real ability.
He was still keeping a low profile, maybe before Zhang Raozhi passed away that day, he had discussed with him and asked him to reserve his real magical powers for critical moments.
"After I leave, there will be no one in the city of God who can oppose him." Then will be the time for Emperor Shenqi to act as a demon.
No matter what evil and poisonous schemes he has, he will definitely use them at that time.
She glanced at Yao Shouning:
"If what Shouning predicted happens, if he really decides to coexist with the demon, then when I return to the capital of God, I will personally clean up the house and kill the faint king!"
The eldest princess's last few words were categorical and murderous.
Su Miaozhen was rushed by her evil spirit, panicked and numb, and backed away one after another.
"Okay! Sister, just think it through!" Liu Bingzhou clapped his hands and said with a smile:
"If you don't stop, you will be subject to chaos. Then I will sit in the capital and wait for my senior sister to return!"
The eldest princess bid farewell and left.
She was in a bad mood when she came, and even worse when she went back.
That night, Yao Shouning heard that the princess's convoy had left the city.
Perhaps it was affected by the events of the day, but at night, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, thinking of the bookstore she saw after Yingtian Bookstore that day.
Somehow, the whole person sat up from the body.
She seemed to be free of restraints, and she walked a few steps forward. The room was not lit, and it was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling. Yao Wanning, Mong Kui and others who lived in the same room with her could no longer be heard.
Yao Shouning was a little scared in his heart, and when he looked back, he saw 'myself' lying on the bed right now.
Perhaps it was because he was disturbed before going to bed, 'Yao Shouning' on the bed frowned slightly, lying with one hand under his neck and the other in front of his abdomen, his eyes closed tightly.
"I--"
She yelled in surprise, and when she looked around again, the furnishings in the boudoir seemed to be corroded by an invisible existence bit by bit, and instead, a huge study room appeared in front of her.
Mr. Kong Shan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, knelt down in front of a low table, with a teacup in front of him, and looked at her with a smile:
"Shou Ning is here."
Perhaps knowing the girl's uneasiness, Mr. Kongshan explained:
"Your soul is out of your body."
He said:
"The out-of-body of the soul can be roughly divided into two categories. Some people are born with a light soul, and the soul leaves the body if they are not careful. Such people lack energy, are weak, and are easily possessed by evil spirits and ghosts; while the other type is the cultivation of the soul. , the soul can leave the body after it has been cultivated as a yin god."
This is Mr. Kong Shan's first teaching lesson. Starting with Yao Shouning's situation, he not only clears up her doubts, but also teaches her lessons.
"You haven't cultivated, so it's impossible to roam the world with a yin spirit, but you have a special bloodline, and you have already met me, and you have been branded. When your desire to study is very urgent in your heart, you can take the initiative to leave your body, Come to me."
Only then did Yao Shouning understand what was going on, and quickly saluted Mr. Kong Shan.
She really had something on her mind today, whether it was the anxiety about the future, or the conversation with her grandfather and the eldest princess today, it made her feel that she was still extremely weak.
She also wants to change the status quo with her own power, instead of only having the power of prediction every time, she is helpless in the end and has to rely on external forces.
The Bianji family is not weak.
When the demon king and Chen Taiwei were making trouble at Yao's house, a senior from the same clan in her sea of knowledge once said that he would come to help; when the son was controlled by the demon in his body, Mr. Kong Shan also subdued the demon with his gestures.
This proves that even if the Bianji clan is not a pure fighter, they definitely have the power to protect themselves.
All these aroused Yao Shouning's desire to become stronger, so she recalled everything that happened at Yingtian Bookstore that day at night, and came here in a daze.
Mr. Kongshan was not in a hurry to teach her spells, but started with the clansmen themselves.
Everything should be done step by step. After Yao Shouning awakened her blood, her life was very long, and she had enough time to learn everything.
After she had studied for an unknown amount of time, Mr. Kongshan's first class finally came to an end, and he waved to her:
"Okay, go back and think about it, and come back tomorrow."
She was a little anxious, and was about to tell the teacher that she still wanted to learn for a while, but her lips just moved:
"teacher--"
"Miss is awake?" Mallow's voice came.
She brought a steaming water basin, and she was going to put it on the bedside to wait, but she didn't expect Yao Shouning to wake up.
Yao Shouning was taken aback. When he opened his eyes and looked again, where did he appear in Yingtian Bookstore?There is no Mr. Kong Shan in front of her, nor are there tall bookshelves stacked in all directions, low tables, and clear tea are missing, but what she learned last night has been deeply imprinted in her mind.
"In the dream, the gods taught me the magic of immortality?" She suddenly remembered the story she heard from the storyteller at the Wangjiao Teahouse last year.
In the story, Taizu dreamed that the gods taught him the law, and finally slayed demons and established Daqing.
Thinking about it now, isn't my situation consistent with the legendary Taizu story?
The more she thought about it, the more interesting it became, and she couldn't help but chuckle.
Seeing her waking up, Dongkui was chatting with her. Although the future is dangerous, the Yao family is still peaceful. She has awakened her blood, and now she is learning spells from her teacher. Behind her, there are many clansmen who can help at any time. What difficulties can she not overcome?
Thinking of these, Yao Shouning suddenly felt boundless courage.
In the following time, she entered Yingtian Bookstore in a dream at night to learn from Mr. Kongshan, and took care of her sister and mother during the day, waiting for the return of the eldest princess and others.
At the same time, Shendu City is also undergoing changes.
A large number of people who had been demonized before were taken away, and the people of the town magic department were ruthless and killed some of the people who had been demonized.
The execution took place at Caishikou in the southwest of the city, and many people went to watch it. There were many people watching the scene every day, and there were also many mourners, and a lot of things happened.
Time flies and it's July.
The weather was extremely hot, and it hadn't rained in Shendu City for half a month.
In Yao's house, Yao Shouning helped Yao Wanning into Liu's room, and when he passed the threshold, he reminded:
"Be careful."
Yao Wanning's belly was getting bigger and bigger. The family members looked at her belly and said that the delivery time might be within these two months.
It's just that she has a long belly, but her limbs are still slender, her face is pale, and she is panting slightly after walking a few steps.
Because of Xu Xiangyi's Gu technique, Liu Shi has not yet awakened.
There was still a big hole in her chest, but fortunately, the wound neither deteriorated nor showed signs of healing, as if Liu Shi had fallen into a state of stagnant time.
When the two sisters entered the room, Su Miao really came out of the inner room with a basin in her hand. Seeing the two, she first smiled, then saw Yao Wanning's stomach, and said:
"Is my cousin's belly fast?"
Everyone who met Yao Wanning said so recently, she smiled and asked questions instead of answering:
"Is mother better?"
In fact, she herself knew the answer. If the gloomy wooden coffin at Shizi's side was not made properly, it would be impossible to separate Liu's soul from her body, and Xu Xiangyi had no way to heal Liu.
But the Liu family was injured because of her that day, Yao Wanning was always looking forward to a miracle so that her mother would wake up as soon as possible and no longer be tortured.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Su Miaozhen's smile faltered, a bit of sadness appeared on her face, and she shook her head:
"Not yet."
After she was not controlled by the Fox King, she showed her originally gentle and considerate temperament.
The memories of Mrs. Liu's kindness to her at the beginning surfaced in her heart several times, causing her to get up early every day before dawn, and rush to wait in Mrs. Liu's room, help her wash her face and wash her hands, take care of her meticulously, and be as filial as sister Yao Shouning .
When several people heard this, they were all silent for a moment.
At this moment, Liu Bingzhou followed and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the beating of gongs and drums from outside, and then there was another indistinct cry.
(End of this chapter)
Daqing died in 31 generations—this statement came from Mr. Xu of the Bianji family 700 years ago.
The Bianji tribe has the power to manipulate time. Liu Bingzhou had witnessed the miraculous power of this tribe at Yingtian Bookstore more than 30 years ago.
Since Xu Zhao was able to say such words 700 years ago, it proves that he has probably spied on what happened in the future.
In other words, Daqing is doomed to perish, and Emperor Shenqi is already the last emperor.
So what's so strange about changing dynasties?
There was a flash of light in Liu Bingzhou's eyes, and he didn't say it out loud, but Yao Shouning understood his inner voice strangely.
Yao Ruoyun was worried.
He was born in Daqing, and he received an education of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. At this time, what his grandfather and sister said had a great spiritual impact on his previous cognition.
Liu Bingzhou looked at this upright and honest grandson with a little affection. He had a good character and worked hard in his studies, but his temperament was a little staid, and he was not as spirited as Yao Shouning.
But Yao Ruoyun has a good nature, he is filial and obedient, he wanted to give advice, so he deliberately said:
"After all, nothing in this world is eternal."
Kingship is not eternal, and the Daqing Dynasty is not eternal either.
"In the long river of time, the Daqing Dynasty, which controlled the power of the world, only stole these 700 years."
He said softly:
"Looking at the past and present, the people are still the same people, but the change of dynasties is unknown. It can be seen that the so-called dynasties and country names are just passers-by in time."
Liu Bingzhou once experienced Yingtian Bookstore, so he has his own understanding of time.
More than 30 years ago, Mr. Kongshan's wonderful anchor theory had a profound impact on him. He smiled and said:
"The world does not belong to the kingship, and the people do not belong to the kingship. In my opinion, the king is only bound by the power to move forward in the river of time and space. If he occupies the power for a while, he will eventually become a passer-by in the long stream of time. "
The meaning in his words reveals thoughts that are too shocking for Yao Ruoyun.
Yao Ruoyun was so upset that she subconsciously went to look at her sister, but saw Yao Shouning thoughtful and didn't say a word.
"Ruoyun, you were born in Daqing, and you received the education of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country since childhood, so you can't figure out these things for the time being. Grandpa thinks it's nothing unusual, but my senior sister, if you can figure it out..." He said up to this point, There was a pause.
After a while, he laughed 'hehe' and waved his hands:
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that."
Yao Shouning quickly calmed down and asked:
"Grandfather, if what I predicted is true, then Uncle's trip will go smoothly."
Su Wenfang will persuade Chu Shaolian, and then promote a temporary reconciliation between Emperor Shenqi and Gu Huanzhi, but such changes will also lead to the disintegration of Daqing.
"We'll wait and see what happens, and we'll just be prepared to deal with it!"
……
After the three people talked, just as Yao Shouning said, Su Wenfang met with his old friend Chu Shaolian, and took advantage of him to persuade Chu Xiaotong to appease Emperor Qidi.
On the other side, Liu Bingzhou also met Zhu Hengrui.
Not long after, Zhu Hengrui and Lu Wuji went in and out of the Gu family's mansion. Half a month later, in the court hall, the old and new emperors, who were always fighting endlessly, shook hands and made peace.
Gu Huanzhi came forward in person and said: The new emperor is young and unable to control the overall situation for the time being, please ask Emperor Shenqi to listen to the government behind the curtain and regain power.
Emperor Shenqi couldn't refuse at the beginning, but after that Gu Huanzhi repeatedly wrote letters, Emperor Shenqi reluctantly responded and took back the seal of the emperor.
After he regained power, he issued a decree.
Due to the emergence of evil spirits in the world, the imperial court will send the Zhenmagic Division to arrest the evil spirits in the city. The Department of Criminal Prisons and the Dingguo Shenwu General's Mansion will help.
In terms of internal affairs, Gu Huanzhi led the formation of imperial envoys, who went to the south of the Yangtze River to borrow rice to help Shendu through the crisis.
There is a shortage of manpower in the capital, and Yao Hui, who was at home due to injury, was also reactivated.
With the promulgation of decrees one after another, it seems that everything is developing in a good direction.
In Yao's house, Sister Yao Shouning also sat together and chatted some gossips to pass the time.
"...I heard that several members of Mr. Zhao's family who were bitten and turned into demons were taken away by the people from the Zhenmagic Division. The Zhao family was relieved, but also a little worried."
Dong Kui sat next to Yao Shouning, talking about the neighbor next door: "I heard from Jin Huan in the morning that among those who were taken away was Aunt Wang's son, and Aunt Wang couldn't keep her eyes open from crying."
It is always a hidden danger for demonized people to go crazy and hurt others. Being locked up at home not only worries the Zhao family, but also the neighbors next door.
Now that the court has taken action, others are naturally relieved.
However, for the family members of those who were mutated by the evil spirit, falling into the hands of Zhenmasi is like entering the eighteenth level of hell.
In the past, Zhenma Division had a notorious reputation, and those who were arrested often never returned. Seeing their loved ones being arrested, they naturally cried bitterly.
"Miss, miss—" Mong Kui said for a long time, but she didn't get a response, so she couldn't help but glanced at the people around her.
Yao Shouning frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
And Yao Wanning's face was slightly pale, and her eyes were dull, as if in a daze.
Su Miaozhen held the embroidery frame in her hand, and did not stitch for a long time.
Today is really strange, why does everyone seem to have something on their minds?
"Miss." Dong Kui yelled again, and Yao Shouning came back to his senses: "...what's wrong?"
After she finished speaking, she remembered what Mallow had said before, coughed twice and asked:
"You talked about the Zhao family."
"It has already been said that the son of Aunt Wang of the Zhao family was taken away by Zhenmasi!" Dong Kui couldn't help but sighed:
"Aunt Wang is just such a son, crying very sadly, do you think he can come back?"
Although Mong Kui asked this, her eyes were filled with sobs, obviously she already had the answer in her heart.
"I--"
According to Zhenmasi's actions, those who were arrested in the name of evil spirits should have never returned.
Yao Shouning wanted to shake her head too, but just as the words came to her lips, a scene flashed through her mind quickly.
It was an announcement in front of an imperial list in the city, and a list was posted. Because the screen flashed too fast, she couldn't read the whole text clearly, but she caught a line of keywords: I will decide, and the demon——
The picture was fleeting, and she couldn't see the words behind it clearly.
At the same time, a bad premonition flooded her heart, she murmured:
"I think they can come back..."
Emperor Shenqi may be about to do something big.
Her restless appearance alarmed Yao Wanning who was at the side, and Su Miaozhen also put down the embroidery frame in her hand, and asked her what happened in a low voice.
"I can't tell." Yao Shouning shook his head.
She frowned and glanced at Mong Kui, the girl was happy for Aunt Wang because of her answer.
The people in front of him were all his sisters. Yao Shouning thought about it, but he didn't hide it from them:
"I always feel that the emperor may cause big things."
She said:
"Gu Xiang was sent away from the capital, and the little emperor was left alone."
Yao Wanning heard the words and spoke to her sister with force:
"I heard that Chu Xiaotong's eldest son was temporarily appointed as a young teacher, and has already entered and left the East Palace to protect the young emperor."
Recently, her energy is obviously not as good as before, she looks preoccupied, and her body has lost a lot of weight, but her stomach is getting bigger, which is obviously not right.
It's a pity that many things happened at home, which made the family have no time to be distracted and paid less attention to her.
"Isn't the Chu family loyal to the old emperor?" Su Miaozhen also interrupted and asked.
It is no secret that the two generations of emperors struggled for power after the previous quarrel. If it hadn't been for the evil and evil things that were so loud and covered up, the streets would probably be full of gossip.
But even so, in many official families, those who have no worries about food and clothing for the time being will still discuss a few words in private.
"The Chu family may have two minds." Yao Shouning whispered as he thought of the scene he had predicted earlier.
"I just 'saw' that the emperor will issue a list——"
After finishing speaking, she said a few words she saw:
"...and the demon—" she said in distress:
"I didn't see it clearly. According to my sister and cousin's guess, what word do you think will be behind?"
"Is it irreconcilable?" Su Miaozhen took the lead in guessing.
She has been deeply harmed by the fox king, and now her face is imprinted for life, her surface is gentle and gentle, but in fact she is very resentful in her heart, so after hearing Yao Shouning's words, her first thought was to think that after the court learned of the existence of evil spirits, it was going to raise the whole country. The power to exterminate evil spirits.
Yao Wanning, on the other hand, had a delicate mind. Hearing the words, she didn't take the lead in expressing her opinion. Instead, she thought for a while before saying in a soft voice:
"Coexist with demons?"
As soon as these words were finished, he was shocked like a stone breaking the sky.
The faces of the girls all changed color, Su Miaozhen trembled at the tip of her nose, and said:
"This can't be?!"
Yao Shouning's lips moved, and she thought it was impossible at first, but just after her cousin finished speaking, she had another thought in her heart: Maybe what my sister said was correct.
She looked at Yao Wanning, and Yao Wanning said:
"The disposition of the Supreme Emperor—" she stopped here, and said instead:
"Uncle said that these people who are currently infected by the demon will gradually regain their senses sooner or later." She sighed and looked down at her own reflection behind her.
Upon closer inspection, her shadow was longer than those of the girls, and another shadow was vaguely covered inside. Yao Shouning followed her line of sight, as if he could see Zhu Shizhen's ghost standing there silently.
She was puzzled.
At the Yingtian Bookstore that day, Zhu Shizhen learned about the messy things he would do with his dead body in the future, so he recognized the marriage, and separated a ghost to attach to the copper coin as a dowry gift, and gave it to Yao Wanning.
For Yao Wanning, she and the "River God" dreamed of first marriage and then love, and had a child. Now the two are finally "reunited". The family knows this well, and the child in Yao Wanning's womb has passed bright since then. Lu, logically speaking, it is considered a happy event, but why is there no joy on my sister's face?
Yao Shouning was about to ask in detail, but Yao Wanning raised his head and said:
"There are quite a few of these people. Killing them all is not beneficial to the Supreme Emperor."
"But how is this possible?!" Su Miaozhen couldn't accept such a result:
"How can humans and demons co-exist?" She and the Fox King once lived together, so she knows the horror of demons and the threat they pose to human beings.
Even if the demon race is forced by the status quo and temporarily agrees to coexist with the human race, but it is not my race, its heart will be different. After a long time, once humans relax their vigilance, the evil spirits will make a comeback and reproduce the chaos of the sky demon 700 years ago.
It's just that 700 years ago, Taizu and others killed demons and revolted and established a new dynasty. I don't know when this chaos will continue 700 years later.
A demon who has suffered a loss may not give humans such an opportunity again, Su Miaozhen shook her head:
"Impossible, impossible. Impossible!"
She said three 'impossible' in a row, as if to vent her depression in her heart:
"The Daqing Dynasty established the country by killing demons, and the Supreme Emperor is also a descendant of the royal family. If he really made the decision to coexist with demons, how could he be worthy of his ancestors?"
After speaking, she shook her head as if convincing herself:
"Impossible! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
With Yao Wanning's intelligence, it is natural to see that Su Miaozhen's rebuttal is not aimed at herself.
This cousin has been deeply harmed by demons, and she hates the demon race so much that she naturally does not want humans and demons to coexist.
She smiled and sighed:
"Yeah, normal people know it's impossible."
But is Emperor Shen Qi still normal?
This question appeared in the minds of several girls.
The Fox King appeared that day, and a border gate appeared in the capital city of God. The city was in chaos, and there were countless casualties. This absurd emperor made a move that is difficult for normal people to understand: when he was in danger, he left the people and wanted to escape, and passed the throne to the returnee. The fourth prince who is underage.
After the matter subsided, he was unwilling to lose power, and then there was a scandal involving the royal father and son fighting for power.
Although after mediation by various parties, the two sides temporarily reached a delicate balance, but now, I am afraid that everyone knows the madness in the old emperor's heart, and it is not surprising that he can make such an unimaginable decision.
"Could the eldest princess and Xiang Gu think the same way?" She asked calmly.
"That's for sure." Su Miaozhen replied without hesitation.
After hearing this, Yao Shouning finally understood the meaning of her sister's words:
"Then it's over." She sighed, Su Miao was so confused, she turned to her and asked:
"Shouning, don't get confused, I don't understand—"
"What my sister means is that the Supreme Emperor is very likely to oppose the eldest princess and Gu et al."
The more they don't allow it, the old emperor might go crazy and do it.
Yao Wanning nodded:
"The most important thing is that he has a national teacher by his side."
In this way, Su Miaozhen also understood that Chen Taiwei's background was unknown, and he was full of evil spirits. When something happened to Yao's family, he and the fox demon came here hand in hand. There may have been collusion between this person and the demon.
With him around, maybe the old emperor would really do such a ridiculous thing!
"It's over." Su Miao really bit her lower lip unwillingly.
She could feel her two slightly protruding sharp canines touching the fine hair on the outside of her lips, and she could feel the weirdness under her lips without reaching out to touch them.
Resentment surged in the girl's heart, all of this was caused by evil spirits.
If it wasn't for my father coming to the God Capital and being bewitched by the evil spirits, I'm afraid I would lose my life in a muddle at some point.
She knew that the fox king did all this for the return of the sky demon clan to the human world. She was harmed by the fox king, so how could she want to see this demon get what she wanted?
"I'll talk to my grandfather about it."
Yao Shouning couldn't sit still anymore, he got up and said.
"You can talk about it." Yao Wanning responded, but she sat without moving:
"I won't go." She thumped her leg and squeezed out a smile:
"I'm very tired recently, I'll sit here for a while."
My sister didn't seem happy - Yao Shouning hesitated a little.
Yao Wanning has been sick since she was a child. Although she is gentle and obedient on the surface, she is actually open-minded in her heart, and she rarely has such a sentimental demeanor.
Her depression at this time is obviously trapped by love.
'Love'...
Yao Shouning thought of this, and suddenly thought of Shi Zi.
Today, the son's intentions are probably only that he thinks he has concealed it well, others have already seen it, and she naturally knew it long ago.
It is also strange to say.
When Wen Jingsui expressed his heart to her, she sensed that something was wrong, so she bluntly refused.
But when Lu Zhi wanted to express it, she hesitated, so she had no choice but to procrastinate.
Does she like Shizi?Yao Shouning couldn't tell.
It's just that she is sure that she doesn't hate the prince, and she doesn't want him to be sad.
He was kind, affectionate, and righteous to her, and because he saved Liu Shi, he was contaminated with karma and ruined his luck, so he was entangled with monsters and made many jokes.
She has seen this young man in fresh clothes and angry horses, she has also seen his desolate appearance, and she has experienced his narrow-mindedness of revenge, but she has also shared with him adversity, and has been protected by him when facing danger several times.
Yao Shouning came back to his senses, only to realize that he and Shizi were deeply entangled.
If she is with him, can she accept it?
As soon as this question came to Yao Shouning's mind, she already had the answer.
She still doesn't know whether she likes Shizi's feelings, but she doesn't reject being with Shizi.
Memories of the past came to her mind, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
After thinking about it, the son has many advantages——
He is good-looking, and his skills are not bad, the most important thing is that he is obedient, and he can bear beating him...
His mother, the eldest princess, has a bold personality and gets along well with her. Knowing her personality, she doesn't keep preaching every time she sees her. If the son doesn't listen to her in the future, she can still sue the eldest princess, and the eldest princess will definitely beat him ...
The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was feasible, and she couldn't help laughing out "hehe".
"... Shou Ning, Shou Ning." At this moment, someone suddenly pushed her.
"Ah!" Yao Shouning woke up suddenly, and when he turned his head, he saw Su Miao really looking at her with an inexplicable expression:
"I said to find my grandfather, why are you suddenly in a daze?"
"No, it's okay——" Yao Shouning came back to his senses, and realized that he had been thinking wildly before, and his cheeks were burning like fire, bleeding red:
"Just thinking about something."
"What are you thinking about?" Su Miaozhen saw that her peach cheeks were flushed, and the anger in her heart dropped sharply, and she suddenly teased:
"Remember Shizi?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw panic in Yao Shouning's eyes, and her face turned even redder.
"No...no...ah..." She desperately waved her hands, trying to defend:
"I was thinking about other things, what my sister said just now..."
"What does the son have to do with me? Why would I think of him out of nowhere?" At this time, she didn't have 300 taels of silver and tried to calm down, but her hands were shaking non-stop.
'poof. Su Miaozhen couldn't help laughing out loud, and sighed in her heart: Why didn't I find Shouning so cute before?What was in her heart was revealed on her face, and she would not hide it at all.As expected, I was deceived by evil spirits before, so how could I think that Yao Shouning is a treacherous and cunning man, full of lies?
"Really cousin!" She was a little anxious, and said quickly:
"What I'm really thinking about is what my sister said, and definitely not thinking about—Shizi—" After she said this, she also felt a little guilty, and her voice gradually softened.
Su Miaozhen's voice rang in her ears: Shouning is really simple.
Yao Shouning: "..."
What simplicity?She just figured out her own mind and was at a loss for a while.
She used to be able to hear her cousin's 'heart', but she remained calm, and even the fox demon was deceived by herself, so it can be seen that she can tell lies...
"Let's go, let's go find our grandfather, tell the elders about these things, and let them decide." Su Miaozhen took her hand, she nodded, and then thought of the memories of Zeng and her son.
On the carriage in Zhuzi Lane that day, Lu Zhi mentioned the relationship between Wen Jingsui and Gu Huanzhi. At that time, he laughed at her as a daughter of an official family, but she was not sensitive to government affairs.
At that time, she retorted confidently, but she didn't expect that now she would have the time to discuss the affairs of the court with her sisters at home.
"..." I didn't expect to turn my mind to Shizi again without knowing it.
Yao Shouning glanced at his cousin with some guilt, but fortunately, Su Miao really put all her heart on evil spirits, and didn't realize the small thoughts of the girl beside her, so her high-pitched heart fell back to the original place.
I don't know how the son is doing recently - half a month ago, he was ordered by the eldest princess to go to Jindi, intending to fetch Yinyin wood to build a coffin for Liu's recovery, and he hasn't returned to Shendu yet.
Her mind was drifting away, and the brows were gradually stained with melancholy.
……
When the two sisters came to look for Liu Bingzhou, they happened to meet the eldest princess.
She came here in private, dressed up like a military household.
But she is tall, and she is still very eye-catching when she sits there.
The conversation between her and Liu Bingzhou didn't seem to be pleasant, and the atmosphere was a little stiff. When she saw Yao Shouning coming over, she was very happy:
"Shou Ning is here."
The eldest princess stretched out her hand to pull her:
"I haven't seen you for a long time, you seem to be thinner."
She smiled and said a few words to Yao Shouning, and then she noticed Su Miaozhen beside her.
Su Miao's heartfelt resentment towards evil spirits and Emperor Shenqi's anger turned into a guilty conscience the moment she saw the eldest princess.
After regaining her senses, she remembered what she had done to Shizi before, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground and go in.
"Long, long princess."
It's just that the eldest princess turned her eyes, and she couldn't escape, so she could only bite the bullet and go forward to say hello.
In her impression, the eldest princess is not easy to deal with.
This high-status Emperor Ji was born with arrogance, fierce temperament and hated her very much, which made her feel afraid at the first sight.
Unexpectedly, the eldest princess did not ignore her, but nodded at her:
"Miss Su."
Her attitude is no different from that of ordinary elders. Obviously, the dislike for her in the past was not for her, but for the past—or in other words, for the Fox King.
The princess herself didn't blame her!
When Su Miaozhen thought of this, she was excited, her eyes turned red, and she said with enthusiasm:
"Princess, I was wrong before—"
"That's not your fault, it's the evil spirit's fault." The eldest princess interrupted her, because with her heart, it was unreasonable to hold grudges against a junior.
She waved her hand nonchalantly:
"In the future, I will always try to find a way to get it back from that demon fox, so don't cry," after finishing speaking, he complained:
"I don't know how to coax children."
Su Miaozhen wanted to laugh when she heard the words, but she still responded in a low voice:
"Yes."
After the greetings were over, Liu Bingzhou asked:
"Shouning, what are you doing here?"
He understood Yao Shouning's character, if there was no important matter, it would be impossible for him and Su Miaozhen to come to him suddenly at this time.
Having said that, he turned his head and glanced at the eldest princess, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"I—" Yao Shouning was about to speak, but Liu Bingzhou suddenly interrupted her with his hand, and looked at Zhu Hengrui:
"Senior sister, you have received the emperor's order, do you want to leave the city in a hurry, or do you listen to Shouning before leaving?"
He was smiling, and Zhu Hengrui couldn't help but rolled his eyes:
"No matter how urgent you are, you can't rush this moment."
Yao Shouning was a little curious when he heard this:
"Is the princess going to leave the capital?"
"That's right." Zhu Hengrui nodded, not hiding anything from her:
"The emperor asked me to go to Jinzhou to borrow some food." The 'emperor' she was referring to must not be Emperor Shenqi, but Zhu Jingcun.
However, Zhu Jingcun now has no name but no power, and the actual order to let her go to Jinzhou was still issued by Emperor Shenqi.
After she finished speaking, she subconsciously looked at Liu Bingzhou, remembering what he had said earlier: to cover one's ears and steal one's bell.
Liu Bingzhou thinks that Daqing will be destroyed sooner or later, and the eldest princess should make preparations early.
But she was born in the imperial family and was raised by Daqing. The thoughts of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism were imprinted in her mind. How easy is it to break the shackles?
Before Yao Shouning came, the two of them had an unhappy conversation. The eldest princess was upset, but when she looked at Yao Shouning, her eyes were full of smiles:
"My Jin land is rich, and it is also the second granary besides Jiangnan."
When the first emperor was there, he assigned such a place to his beloved daughter as a fief early on. Over the years, the eldest princess managed it like an iron bucket. Emperor Shenqi wanted to intervene several times, but there was nothing he could do.
If there were differences between the siblings in the past, it would be a dream for Emperor Shenqi to calculate the property in the hands of the eldest princess.
But now that the country is in trouble, how can the eldest princess remember the grievances between the two, so naturally she must first take out the food for emergency.
"I have indeed accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. If I use it for disaster relief, it may be able to quell this disaster and bring peace to the world."
"It's just calming down temporarily." Liu Bingzhou added on the side:
"You know very well where the trouble lies."
The eldest princess ignored him and just looked at Yao Shouning:
"What's the matter with Shouning here?"
"I do have something."
When it came to business, Yao Shouning's expression turned serious:
"When we sisters were chatting before, I 'saw' some future events."
Everyone already knows her predictive ability, so it must be no small matter for her to pay so much attention to it.
The eldest princess and Liu Bingzhou looked at each other, they temporarily put aside their previous dispute, and looked at Yao Shouning.
The two didn't open their mouths to ask more questions, but Su Miaozhen added:
"Shou Ning 'saw' the announcement issued by the emperor, which said—" She paused for a while.
It's not that Su Miaozhen intends to show off, but she is not sure what kind of future Yao Shouning sees, so she can only say:
"It is said in the announcement that I will decide, and the demon—"
The expressions of the two elders gradually became serious, which made Su Miao feel a little uneasy, and said in a low voice:
"I think it's - 'incompatible with the demon', but Cousin Wanning thinks it's 'coexist with the demon'."
Liu Bingzhou was stunned.
"Zhu Dingchen dares!"
Zhu Hengrui gasped and let out a low growl.
Although she said so, a sense of desolation gradually permeated from her eyes, turning into disappointment and resentment.
This disappointment was far deeper than when he witnessed Emperor Shenqi in Miyagi want to kill his son in order to fight for the throne.
Su Miaozhen shrank her head and dared not speak out.
Yao Shouning's sensitivity is extremely strong, and he can feel the anger in the eldest princess' heart at this moment.
"He, Zhu Dingchen, didn't dare—he didn't dare—"
She walked around the room a little restlessly, her hands clenched into fists, her chest rising and falling.
Even though he said so, Yao Shouning heard the voice of the eldest princess: she had the same thought as Yao Wanning, and guessed that Emperor Shenqi might be aiming to coexist with the demon.
Because of the same father and half mother as Emperor Shenqi, the two have been at odds for many years, and she has a deeper understanding of Emperor Shenqi than Yao Wanning.
I'm afraid that he not only wants to coexist with the Yaozu, but in the current situation, he may also want to use the power of the Yaozu to eradicate dissidents and consolidate his power.
It's just that the eldest princess couldn't believe it.
At this time, Liu Bingzhou wanted to push her:
"Senior Sister—"
The eldest princess was shocked, and suddenly there was water in her eyes, and said in a hissed voice:
"How dare he, how dare he? When Dad was here, he swore with his own mouth that he would govern the country well and love the people like a son—"
"But later he abused Taoism, raised taxes, indulged in alchemy, believed in evil ways, and was ungrateful..." As she spoke, her voice became quieter, her eyes were firm, and she obviously had an idea in her heart.
Liu Bingzhou heaved a long sigh of relief, and the princess took a deep breath:
"The people's livelihood is the most important thing. This trip to Jindi, I must go." After finishing speaking, she sneered:
"When Gu Huanzhi left, he was also worried that things might change."
As the emperor's father-in-law, Gu Huanzhi, who has dealt with Emperor Shenqi for many years, also knows that Emperor Shenqi is ruthless. When he left, he was worried that Emperor Shenqi would attack the little emperor. Protect the little emperor.
At that time, as soon as he said the words, he immediately thought of something: How could Emperor Shenqi not be able to predict things that he could predict?
Maybe as soon as he left, Zhu Hengrui would be sent out of Shendu City by Emperor Shenqi under another name.
Today, the only ones that the eldest princess can't refuse are the hundreds of thousands of people in the city who are about to run out of food and food.
The poison of a tiger does not eat its offspring, but at this moment, Emperor Shenqi is more poisonous than a tiger, more vicious than a demon!
Before leaving, Gu Huanzhi entrusted Zhu Jingcun to the care of Chu Xiaotong's son. It was a risky move, and he wanted to take this opportunity to share the honor and disgrace of the Chu family, and he also wanted to find a chance for the little emperor.
When the Eldest Princess sent him out of the city, he had already anticipated what would happen next. When he was leaving, the original words he said to the Eldest Princess were:
"You and I don't leave Beijing, and good shows don't go on stage."
Yao Shouning's words now fulfilled his guess that day.
The eldest princess has made up her mind:
"I'm going to Jin, please take care of Shendu." She followed Zhang Raozhi when she was young, and she knew the strangeness of Confucianism.
After Liu Bingzhou entered Beijing, he made a fuss and showed his supernatural powers twice, but this was not his real ability.
He was still keeping a low profile, maybe before Zhang Raozhi passed away that day, he had discussed with him and asked him to reserve his real magical powers for critical moments.
"After I leave, there will be no one in the city of God who can oppose him." Then will be the time for Emperor Shenqi to act as a demon.
No matter what evil and poisonous schemes he has, he will definitely use them at that time.
She glanced at Yao Shouning:
"If what Shouning predicted happens, if he really decides to coexist with the demon, then when I return to the capital of God, I will personally clean up the house and kill the faint king!"
The eldest princess's last few words were categorical and murderous.
Su Miaozhen was rushed by her evil spirit, panicked and numb, and backed away one after another.
"Okay! Sister, just think it through!" Liu Bingzhou clapped his hands and said with a smile:
"If you don't stop, you will be subject to chaos. Then I will sit in the capital and wait for my senior sister to return!"
The eldest princess bid farewell and left.
She was in a bad mood when she came, and even worse when she went back.
That night, Yao Shouning heard that the princess's convoy had left the city.
Perhaps it was affected by the events of the day, but at night, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, thinking of the bookstore she saw after Yingtian Bookstore that day.
Somehow, the whole person sat up from the body.
She seemed to be free of restraints, and she walked a few steps forward. The room was not lit, and it was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling. Yao Wanning, Mong Kui and others who lived in the same room with her could no longer be heard.
Yao Shouning was a little scared in his heart, and when he looked back, he saw 'myself' lying on the bed right now.
Perhaps it was because he was disturbed before going to bed, 'Yao Shouning' on the bed frowned slightly, lying with one hand under his neck and the other in front of his abdomen, his eyes closed tightly.
"I--"
She yelled in surprise, and when she looked around again, the furnishings in the boudoir seemed to be corroded by an invisible existence bit by bit, and instead, a huge study room appeared in front of her.
Mr. Kong Shan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, knelt down in front of a low table, with a teacup in front of him, and looked at her with a smile:
"Shou Ning is here."
Perhaps knowing the girl's uneasiness, Mr. Kongshan explained:
"Your soul is out of your body."
He said:
"The out-of-body of the soul can be roughly divided into two categories. Some people are born with a light soul, and the soul leaves the body if they are not careful. Such people lack energy, are weak, and are easily possessed by evil spirits and ghosts; while the other type is the cultivation of the soul. , the soul can leave the body after it has been cultivated as a yin god."
This is Mr. Kong Shan's first teaching lesson. Starting with Yao Shouning's situation, he not only clears up her doubts, but also teaches her lessons.
"You haven't cultivated, so it's impossible to roam the world with a yin spirit, but you have a special bloodline, and you have already met me, and you have been branded. When your desire to study is very urgent in your heart, you can take the initiative to leave your body, Come to me."
Only then did Yao Shouning understand what was going on, and quickly saluted Mr. Kong Shan.
She really had something on her mind today, whether it was the anxiety about the future, or the conversation with her grandfather and the eldest princess today, it made her feel that she was still extremely weak.
She also wants to change the status quo with her own power, instead of only having the power of prediction every time, she is helpless in the end and has to rely on external forces.
The Bianji family is not weak.
When the demon king and Chen Taiwei were making trouble at Yao's house, a senior from the same clan in her sea of knowledge once said that he would come to help; when the son was controlled by the demon in his body, Mr. Kong Shan also subdued the demon with his gestures.
This proves that even if the Bianji clan is not a pure fighter, they definitely have the power to protect themselves.
All these aroused Yao Shouning's desire to become stronger, so she recalled everything that happened at Yingtian Bookstore that day at night, and came here in a daze.
Mr. Kongshan was not in a hurry to teach her spells, but started with the clansmen themselves.
Everything should be done step by step. After Yao Shouning awakened her blood, her life was very long, and she had enough time to learn everything.
After she had studied for an unknown amount of time, Mr. Kongshan's first class finally came to an end, and he waved to her:
"Okay, go back and think about it, and come back tomorrow."
She was a little anxious, and was about to tell the teacher that she still wanted to learn for a while, but her lips just moved:
"teacher--"
"Miss is awake?" Mallow's voice came.
She brought a steaming water basin, and she was going to put it on the bedside to wait, but she didn't expect Yao Shouning to wake up.
Yao Shouning was taken aback. When he opened his eyes and looked again, where did he appear in Yingtian Bookstore?There is no Mr. Kong Shan in front of her, nor are there tall bookshelves stacked in all directions, low tables, and clear tea are missing, but what she learned last night has been deeply imprinted in her mind.
"In the dream, the gods taught me the magic of immortality?" She suddenly remembered the story she heard from the storyteller at the Wangjiao Teahouse last year.
In the story, Taizu dreamed that the gods taught him the law, and finally slayed demons and established Daqing.
Thinking about it now, isn't my situation consistent with the legendary Taizu story?
The more she thought about it, the more interesting it became, and she couldn't help but chuckle.
Seeing her waking up, Dongkui was chatting with her. Although the future is dangerous, the Yao family is still peaceful. She has awakened her blood, and now she is learning spells from her teacher. Behind her, there are many clansmen who can help at any time. What difficulties can she not overcome?
Thinking of these, Yao Shouning suddenly felt boundless courage.
In the following time, she entered Yingtian Bookstore in a dream at night to learn from Mr. Kongshan, and took care of her sister and mother during the day, waiting for the return of the eldest princess and others.
At the same time, Shendu City is also undergoing changes.
A large number of people who had been demonized before were taken away, and the people of the town magic department were ruthless and killed some of the people who had been demonized.
The execution took place at Caishikou in the southwest of the city, and many people went to watch it. There were many people watching the scene every day, and there were also many mourners, and a lot of things happened.
Time flies and it's July.
The weather was extremely hot, and it hadn't rained in Shendu City for half a month.
In Yao's house, Yao Shouning helped Yao Wanning into Liu's room, and when he passed the threshold, he reminded:
"Be careful."
Yao Wanning's belly was getting bigger and bigger. The family members looked at her belly and said that the delivery time might be within these two months.
It's just that she has a long belly, but her limbs are still slender, her face is pale, and she is panting slightly after walking a few steps.
Because of Xu Xiangyi's Gu technique, Liu Shi has not yet awakened.
There was still a big hole in her chest, but fortunately, the wound neither deteriorated nor showed signs of healing, as if Liu Shi had fallen into a state of stagnant time.
When the two sisters entered the room, Su Miao really came out of the inner room with a basin in her hand. Seeing the two, she first smiled, then saw Yao Wanning's stomach, and said:
"Is my cousin's belly fast?"
Everyone who met Yao Wanning said so recently, she smiled and asked questions instead of answering:
"Is mother better?"
In fact, she herself knew the answer. If the gloomy wooden coffin at Shizi's side was not made properly, it would be impossible to separate Liu's soul from her body, and Xu Xiangyi had no way to heal Liu.
But the Liu family was injured because of her that day, Yao Wanning was always looking forward to a miracle so that her mother would wake up as soon as possible and no longer be tortured.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Su Miaozhen's smile faltered, a bit of sadness appeared on her face, and she shook her head:
"Not yet."
After she was not controlled by the Fox King, she showed her originally gentle and considerate temperament.
The memories of Mrs. Liu's kindness to her at the beginning surfaced in her heart several times, causing her to get up early every day before dawn, and rush to wait in Mrs. Liu's room, help her wash her face and wash her hands, take care of her meticulously, and be as filial as sister Yao Shouning .
When several people heard this, they were all silent for a moment.
At this moment, Liu Bingzhou followed and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the beating of gongs and drums from outside, and then there was another indistinct cry.
