Empress Mi Benji

Chapter 20 Enemy and Friend

"Damn it, it's just a mere mention of Xiaolian, what the whole city is talking about!" Mrs. Zhao smashed the expensive vase.

I heard people in the city compare Zhuang Xun's Chongyi with the ruthlessness of Duke Zhen's mansion. Although the main comparison was between Zhuang Xun and Siqin Shengjing, there was always a voice accusing the Duke of Zhen's mansion of being ruthless when it came to collecting the bones. righteous.

"Mother's anger is all ignorant and rambunctious. What do they know about loyalty, benevolence and filial piety? It is a good story to collect the corpse of the daughter of a criminal minister." Zhao Luofu knelt in front of Mr. Zhao and did not dare to look up. He was extremely respectful. , and whispered dissuadingly,

"Let's pass it on, what kind of slander our Lu family is! What about cutting off the tail to survive, what about liking the new and disliking the old, that bitch obviously has nothing to do with our family, and even given the divorce letter, can she still be considered as a member of our family?" Mrs. Zhao looked angry, her eyes wide open, she looked extremely terrifying, without the kindness of being pampered.

"The rumor has been passed on, that woman may not be given porridge on the [-]th day of the lunar new year. How many people will praise her when she is executed. Reputation is something that is useful when promoting filial piety." Zhao Luofu comforted, saying It is quite in line with the consistent cognition of these masters.

"That's why I said that she lost money. So much food, how much gold, silver and jewelry can be exchanged for, and what kind of false name can I buy? Is it useful? Pity my Bu Ming, who is coerced by her, and what is going on. It’s just a money-losing business.” Zhao became even more angry, slapping the table, thinking of her disobedient son, her anger went straight to her forehead, in her opinion, it would be better to sell the porridge and buy some money to save it for the common people.

Look at Zhao Luofu, feel a little more comfortable, this daughter-in-law is more sensible, asks herself for everything, and doesn't do any unnecessary things.

"My family's Luofu is good, I like it the most, and my stomach is still strong." Zhao Luofu was lifted up, and Zhao's anger was much less. She looked at Zhao Luofu's lower abdomen, and her satisfaction was beyond words.

"Why should mother care about them? It's nothing more than some sarcastic remarks. Let them talk about it. It's really impossible to let people take care of that surname Zhuang and solve this trouble from the source." Zhao Luofu said arrogantly. She is very proud of herself.

"This can't be done. If the general Xiaolian is fine, he will die if he dies. The death of Xiaolian in Yindu Mansion is equivalent to the assassination of an official. At that time, we will definitely be found here. It's not worth it." Zhao Shi's face became serious, as if she was afraid that Zhao Luofu would not listen to her and trouble Zhuang Xun, she would not be stupid in such a matter.

"Luo Fu understands that he won't trouble him, but just watch him slander our family like this?" Zhao Luofu said with emotion, just to empathize with Zhao.

"Of course it's impossible to just look at it like this. Let me think about it. He can form a contrast with our family and make our family look cool. Naturally, he can also form a contrast with other people. There are so many people in that woman's gang, so just talk about it. Come in, as long as we don't discuss our family, isn't it good to let these mouthpieces talk about other people and things? That bitch has helped so many people, why is this troublemaker alone collecting her body? Do they have an affair? "

Rolling her eyes, thinking about her heart, she showed a piercing sneer.

"All of this can be spread, saying that the troublemaker surnamed Zhuang loves that bitch, so no one else dares to collect the body of that bitch, but he dares. They have an adulterous affair. Look at this troublemaker. How?" Zhao learned the technique of transferring hot spots without a teacher.

"Nothing special." Zhao Luofu commented.

"Is that unrequited love?" She said interrogative sentences, but in a declarative tone.

"It can be regarded as having a bit of temperament." Zhao Luofu thought it was better to stigmatize Si Qinmi and improve the legitimacy of his superiority.

She had been waiting for this position for a long time, and knowing that this aunt didn't like her daughter-in-law, she let her mother blow her away.

"That's adultery! Our family divorced that bitch when we found out they were committing adultery." Zhao made up all the reasons.

Thinking of the way to deal with Zhuang Xun, she also showed a smile on her face, took Zhao Luofu's hand, and it was her family who let her get close.

"But will those civilians believe it?" Zhao Luofu couldn't help reminding, feeling that this plan was unreliable.

"So what if you believe it, so what if you can't do it. It's a lie. If you say too much, it will become true. Can that woman still explain that she didn't commit adultery with a man?" Zhao didn't think so.

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter, how are you and Bu Ming doing?" Zhao showed a concerned smile.

Zhao Luofu's face was flushed red.

"No progress."

Zhao pretended to be angry and said, "He dared to ignore you, because he wanted to ignore my grandson."

"No, no, Mr. Lang treats his concubine very well and takes good care of him, but he just feels that his mind is not here." Zhao Luofu whispered, Zhao Luofu did not dare to speak ill of Lu Buming.

"That rebellious son, he can't forget it even after he's dead, like he's haunted by a ghost. Tomorrow, I'll ask a mage to wake him up." Mrs. Zhao understood immediately when she heard it.

"Mother, calm down, mother, calm down, don't irritate Mr. Lang, if you do this, he might make a fuss and seek death again." Zhao Luofu persuaded.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with him. People cannot be resurrected after death. No matter how much he thinks about it, you are already his wife." Mrs. Zhao also just found a step and went down.

"I have pity on my family Luofu. You take care of yourself. This person's brain is slow and he doesn't realize your goodness. When he knows you are good, he will love you very much." Zhao Luofu skillfully painted Flatbread.

"Mr. Lang loves my concubine very much, and my concubine will work hard to make Mr. Lang change his mind." Zhao Luofu ate the big cake skillfully, one willing to beat the other willing to suffer.

"It's really virtuous. I don't know if Bu Ming is interested in that broom star. You have to persuade him well." Having regained the power to control his son's fate, Zhao is full of ambition, but he still hates Si Qin Mi, probably It was the other party who took away her control over her son before.

"There is one more thing that Luofu wants to ask his mother. Shall we still give out porridge on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year?"

"Shi, if you don't give out porridge, the reputation will not let the mourner get away with it. Give it for another year, and then stop it if the land harvest is not good. The same is true for borrowing grain. Everything will continue as usual, and it will stop after one year." Zhao said. Shi calculated that he didn't want Si Qin Mi to gain even the slightest bit of fame.

"It's still my Luofu who is sensible. She knows everything and asks her mother, unlike that concubine girl who doesn't know the rules." Zhao felt happy in Zhao Luofu's obedience, and the more she saw Zhao Luofu, the more she liked it.

"You are the backbone of the family. There is still a lot that Luo Fu doesn't understand, and you need to be guided by your mother. After all, you are the master of this family." Zhao Luofu is also very knowledgeable, trying to please Zhao, said,

"You are also the wife of this family. Bu Ming bullied you, just tell me and I will teach him a lesson." Mrs. Zhao was very pleased with this compliment and promised Zhao Luofu.

"Why would Mr. Lang bully Luo Fu, mother, don't think too much, just leave it to Luo Fu." Zhao Luofu didn't believe Zhao's promise, but on the surface he looked grateful.

On the other side, the woman who frightened Zhuang Xun was looking at the scenery from the stage.

The mountains are full of red leaves, moving with the wind, and they are bright red under the halo of the sun. The beautiful woman is wearing a colorful dress, drinking tea with bare hands, and the breeze blows her hair. Her mature but cold delicate face makes people fascinated.

"Junior Sister Jiang, if you are interested, come and see my old bones." The old Dao An, who was dressed in a purple Taoist robe, sat on the court bench and greeted the beautiful woman.

"The last time we left, the eldest brother has not yet become a purple mansion, but now he looks like a gathering of three flowers, and he is not far from the road to immortality." The beautiful woman put down her teacup and said compliments.

"It's not bad if you don't die. The king of the Yu Kingdom is incompetent. If the country is not a country, the protection of the country will also suffer." The old Taoist shook his head, looking a little pessimistic.

"Why don't you change your family, senior brother, you have a deep connection with immortals, and it won't hurt you if you don't have the protection of the Yu Kingdom." The beautiful woman smiled and extended the invitation.

"No, no, I've fallen too deep, but Junior Sister Jiang, your purple mansion has been completed, and you are expected to ascend to the immortal. It seems that Zhao's rising power has given you great help." The reality of a beautiful woman.

"It's just a fluke." The beautiful woman said modestly.

"Luck is also a necessary condition for cultivating the Tao. Who would have thought that Yu State would become like this in just a few decades." The old Taoist said with a sigh.

"This is also the helplessness of being bound to the fate of the country. I have seen many things, but I can only pretend that I have not seen them. I don't care about anything. Now I understand that the master said that I can't help myself." The old man looked sad.

"Power can make a generation of Mingjun corrupt, and it can also make a vigorous young man short-sighted and arrogant. He didn't leave in time. Now it's impossible to leave, and the old man can only be buried with the big ship of Yu State Already." The old Taoist smiled when he said this, showing a bright smile, with the natural sense of the immortal family.

"Eldest brother, is it true that things cannot be violated? I remember that the elder brother's fairy fate is the strongest among our senior brothers and sisters, so can't he escape the constraints of the dynasty and the fate of the country?" The beautiful woman frowned and said in disbelief.

"Because there is not much left in the Great Yu Dynasty. Every time you intervene, you are consuming your fairy fate. Jiang Shimei, now Zhao Guo is strong and prosperous. If you make a move, the rewards will be positive, but the monarch has no way." , The country is going downhill, no matter what you do, it is to reduce consumption, so you have to not do it. You are the queen mother of Zhao Guo, and the entanglement is deeper. You must become a fairy as soon as possible when Zhao Guo is strong, otherwise you should leave as soon as possible. "The old man took a sip of tea and said.

"Xiannao understands, thank you, senior brother, for your suggestion." Jiang Xiannao put down her teacup and said solemnly.

"Not to mention a few points, the master has reminded us many times, but only when we really step into the chaos of the world of mortals, and are entangled by the threads of the mortal world, will we think of his advice." The old man put down his teacup and fell into memory explain.

"I always think that relying on our own ability can correct the path, but we don't know that we are just practitioners, and we don't have the ability to govern the world, let alone the ability to fight against these bureaucrats.

They can't see the evil in themselves, but you can see your own, and you know that your celestial fate is decreasing, and you can't violate it. You should retreat immediately. I just want to fight them, and finally fix myself permanently in the On this rotten ship of Yu State.

The magical method of the Xian family cannot be applied to these officials who have the protection of the national destiny, and they can only watch them push the big ship of this country into the abyss. "

The old Taoist narrated his own experience, with a bit of bitterness in his smile, not everyone can dance well while wearing shackles.

"Elder brother, why bother?" Jiang Xian shook her head. The state of the old Taoist is very clear. Without the support of the dynasty's luck, the road to immortality is dead. Naturally, the reason is to interfere in the affairs of the court, and the policies deviated from the plan It caused evil results and exhausted one's own immortality, so he could only rely on the fate of the dynasty to make ends meet.

"Whether you are unwilling or angry, this country is like your own vegetable garden. How can you bear to see them being eaten by moths?" The old man smiled helplessly.

"Xianao understands how you feel, big brother, and treats Zhao Guo and me the same way. This is also the price we paid for our practice in the world. Xianao has already made preparations." Jiang Xianlai said solemnly.

The price of being happy in the immortal way is not to be a spectator in the world of mortals. Now that you have entered the world of mortals, the leisurely time of sitting and watching the rise and fall of dynasties no longer exists.

"Yes, there are gains and losses. You didn't invite the old Taoist just to reminisce about the past, did you? You are not here in Zhao country, are you starting to fight for the dragon?" The old Taoist changed the subject.

"Yes, Empress Xuannu once met Xiannao, and she said that Xiannao will be the mother of the son of heaven, and Xiannao has prepared for this for more than [-] years." Jiang Xiannao admitted generously.

"The old Taoist also has the heart to help the Dragon Court. It's a pity that the huge royal family of Yu Kingdom can't find a monarch who wants to be in the world."

"Maybe it's hidden. After all, the emperor's veins are not visible, and the Da Luo Jinxian is also hard to find. Except for the king of a country who is sure to have the emperor's veins, everyone else is possible." Jiang Xianyu persuaded.

Out of selfishness, she hoped that Lao Dao could find the support of a suitable monarch in Yu State. After all, he was a brother of the same school. Out of public interest, it would not be good for Zhao State to let Yu State collapse now.

"There is no need to comfort the old Taoist. I have never tried the royal children of the Yu country. A bunch of rotten wood. These princes are full of evil, and they want to get a good word from the old Taoist. They think it is beautiful." The contempt of the royal children.

"Tell me, what's the matter? People with your personality don't like to show their faces." The old man took another sip of his hot tea.

"Since big brother, you guessed that I was planning to fight for the dragon, then I won't hide it from you. The current state of Yu cannot be defeated. If You state annexes the state of Yu, it will definitely dominate Jizhou." Jiang Xian said slowly.

"What's the difficulty? As long as your country Zhao sends troops to attack You country from behind, the danger of Yu country's destruction will naturally be lifted." The old Taoist said with a chuckle.

"Zhao State now divides its forces into two lines to guard against the attacks of Jingzheng and Jingzheng. There are really no soldiers to attack You State." Jiang Xianyu was also very helpless. Zhao Guoqiang returned to the strong, but there were no weak countries around.

"In that case, what do you think?" the old Taoist said leisurely, looking at the maple-leaf forest.

"Cheng Guo is already mobilizing now, and Cheng Yu is close to each other. Cheng Guo really wants to help Yu State through this disaster, but Yu State is not willing to cooperate. Xian Nuo wants to ask the elder brother to persuade King Yu to take the initiative. Attack and expel You Country." Jiang Xiannao took two steps back, folded her hands, and solemnly saluted the request.

"The old Taoist agreed to this request, but His Majesty is no longer able to be persuaded by the old Taoist, and the old Taoist can only say that he will do his best." The old Taoist was silent for a long time, as if thinking about the pros and cons of doing so, and then turned to Jiang Xian who was bending over to beg I replied.

"Thank you, big brother, I will remember it in my heart." Jiang Xianying showed a charming smile, and then restrained the smile that turned into a graceful smile, maintaining her demeanor.

　Two in one, by the way, I recommend the book of the book friends in the group, "Little Idle Man"
