100 million walk alone

Chapter 300: I am Pei Chitose

"Old Li, have you heard that the emperor has consecrated a noble concubine?"

"Nonsense, the imperial list has been posted, who doesn't know?"

"Male imperial concubine, have you seen her?"

"It's rare but strange. After all, I am the empress. If I were to confer a female noble concubine, I would be really shocked."

"That's right. Who is that noble concubine and how did she get His Majesty's favor?"

"I don't know. I heard that all the major aristocratic families are in turmoil. None of the young talents from the top ten clans of the Imperial City who want to enter the palace to serve His Majesty have been selected."

"After 500 years, His Majesty finally has a companion. It's not easy."

"I don't understand. Since Your Majesty has found a partner, why doesn't he get married?"

"What do you know? A wedding is held only after the queen is crowned. How can a concubine be worthy of a wedding? Posting a few imperial papers is considered to give face."

"What does that noble concubine look like?"

"I heard that he is handsome and graceful, with a jade tree facing the wind. He is a rare and beautiful man that is rare to see in a hundred years."

"I heard that the imperial concubine is very impressive. She is eight feet tall and eight inches long."

"What does it mean that Ding is eight inches long?"

"Young man, you don't even understand this, so we don't have to talk."

"..."

The imperial city was very lively that night.

In the streets and alleys, in teahouses and restaurants, people are discussing Concubine Pei.

In the Weiyang Palace, the Jade Sword Immortal was telling Concubine Pei the rules: "Madam, according to the rules of the palace, anyone who owns a palace can call himself this palace. Now that you are the master of the Weiyang Palace, please do not call yourself 'I'. From now on, when you speak to your servants, you must call yourself 'I'."

Concubine Pei almost cried: "I really can't be this palace, Jade Sword Immortal, there are no outsiders here, tell me, have you been controlled by the soul-enchanting bell, have you been unable to control yourself these years? We are all big Compatriots of the Tang Dynasty, why are the people of the Tang country so troublesome to the people of the Tang country? Just tell me and I will find a way to help you solve it."

The Jade Sword Immortal looked stern: "Your Majesty, please speak carefully. I serve your Majesty wholeheartedly and have not been coerced."

Pei Yin changed his approach: "You said before that if there is no queen at present, I am the biggest official in the harem, and everyone in the harem must obey my command, right?"

Jade Sword Immortal replied: "That's right."

Pei Yin asked again: "Then you female officials, will you be under my control?"

Jade Sword Immortal replied: "Female officials are under the direct control of His Majesty. Since you are His Majesty's personal concubine, I naturally have to listen to your Majesty's orders."

Pei Yin let his mind wander: "Can I understand that in the Chinese Empire, Your Majesty is the mother of the country, and I am equivalent to the father of the country?"

Jade Sword Immortal said cautiously: "Your Majesty, if your name is not right, your words will not be right. The Queen is the father of the country."

Father Pei was very unhappy: "Then you just told me that I can temporarily exercise the power of the queen?"

Jade Sword Immortal was very particular about her words: "Exercising power on behalf of others is not formal after all. Please pay attention to your words and deeds."

Father Pei was angry: "Okay, you do this for me. Then I...I will give you an official order. My Weiyang Palace is too deserted. Bring Lei Xuanran to me. From now on, she will be in Weiyang Palace." Be a palace maid."

The Jade Sword Immortal saw the move and said: "Empress, you are His Majesty's favorite concubine. According to the rules, you are not allowed to have people of the opposite sex around you. From now on, all the maids in Weiyang Palace will evacuate, and the ministers will send clever and obedient eunuchs to serve you."

"..."

Concubine Pei even wants to scold her mother, I don’t want a eunuch!

Not a single eunuch!

He came up with a trick to divert trouble: "You are also of the opposite sex. If you came to my Weiyang Palace, wouldn't you be committing a serious crime of beheading?"

Jade Sword Immortal said calmly: "I am honored by your majesty's trust and have been ordered to come and explain the rules of the palace to the empress." Pei Yin stopped trying and got to the point: "I've finished explaining the rules. Since you, the female officials, will also listen. I'll arrange it, so first tell me how you came to Dongsheng Divine Continent and how you became a female officer?"

This time Jade Sword Immortal couldn't refuse: "35 years ago, Wei Chen found a portal to the earth in the Kunlun Mountains of the human world."

"Wait a minute." Master Pei caught the loophole: "Master Yu, have you forgotten that we are fellow villagers? Why haven't I heard of that portal in Kunlun Mountain?"

"That's because you haven't reached the Four Realms yet, and no one told you this secret."

"In the human world, once you reach the Tongxuan realm, there will be senior experts who will be responsible for guiding and explaining the Kunlun portal."

"The portal hides mysteries. Only monks in the Tongxuan realm who have mastered the soul can see the portal."

"After entering, you will be randomly teleported to Jiuzhou, the underworld."

"Wei Chen appeared at the border of Dongsheng Shenzhou and was bullied by a late Tongxuan monk who wanted to take me back to be his concubine. Fortunately, His Majesty happened to be hunting in autumn that year and saved Wei Chen from the fire and water and brought me back. In the imperial city, one starts as a palace maid and is later promoted to a female official."

Jade Sword Immortal obviously didn't want to say more and basically just brushed it off.

Pei Yin refused to let him go: "Tell me again, why do monks in the human world call the earth world the new world?"

The Jade Sword Immortal replied: "There are three realms of heaven, earth and man. The earth realm is above the human realm. The human realm is not allowed to discuss matters in the upper realm. Therefore, we hid the truth from the sky and replaced the earth realm with the 'New World'."

Pei Yin asked again: "The masters I know in the human world, including my master, never mention anything about the new world. Why is this?"

Jade Sword Immortal replied: "It's the same reason. Matters in the upper world cannot be discussed in the human world. Once the secrets of heaven are revealed, they will be swallowed by the law."

Pei Yin felt a sudden shock in his heart. No wonder neither Master Niu of Mount Emei nor Master Zhang of Longhu Mountain told him about his experiences in the new world.

He still has a question: "What law is so powerful? I have been in the earth world for a while, so why don't I feel the law you mentioned?"

Jade Sword Immortal replied: "You can't feel it in the earth realm. If the empress returns from the earth realm to the human world, when you return, the laws of the earth and heaven will come. At that time, the empress can clearly feel the power of the law."

Pei Yin was thoughtful, and after a while, he asked: "Every time you come to the realm, you always go to Kunlun Mountain first?"

Jade Sword Immortal replied: "Yes, the minister said to the outside world that he was on vacation or in retreat, but in fact he came to the earth to serve His Majesty."

Pei Yin couldn't help laughing: "You are quite loyal to His Majesty, so how do you go back every time?"

The Jade Sword Immortal did not take the bait: "My Majesty needs your approval to forgive me and return to the human world. When Your Majesty agrees to my return, I will naturally tell you the answer."

The empress was very angry: "Stop talking, you go."

The Jade Sword Immortal quickly resigned as if he had been granted amnesty.

Pei Yin took a deep breath in the night wind and felt that the aura of heaven and earth in the earth was dozens of times richer than that in the human world.

Even the concentration of spiritual energy in Qingcheng Fairy Village is not comparable to that of the Earth Realm.

Sword Spirit Shuang'er sensed the host's upset and made a small suggestion: "Brother A Niu, if you really want to talk nonsense, why bother asking the female officer? Why not ask the empress directly."

Pei Yin couldn't laugh or cry: "The empress is unfathomable, and I don't know which of her words are true. I can't talk to her."

Baili Shuangshuang said: "That's not entirely true. The empress has not named a concubine for 500 years, but now she has named Brother A Niu as a concubine, which shows that she attaches great importance to you. The female official just said that if you want to go back, you need the empress's consent. The implication is that you There is still a chance to return to the human world, provided that the empress is satisfied with you."

Pei Yin's eyes lit up: "Shuang'er, you really woke up the dreamer with your words. Tell me quickly, how can I satisfy the empress?"

Baili Shuangshuang said with a little jealousy: "Brother A Niu is such a smart person, do you need me to say more?"

Brother A Niu understood instantly and was about to cry: "Sister, you don't know the pain in my heart. Every time I see that pig head, I feel like dying. It's really hard for me to satisfy her." !”

Baili Shuangshuang sighed: "I can feel how wronged Brother Aniu is, but you have to do this if you want to leave this imperial city. My little sister has a plan. Please answer Brother Aniu truthfully. What do you think of the empress's back? "

Pei Yin thought about it seriously and said, "If you only look at her back, she can be said to be the most beautiful woman in the country."

Baili Shuangshuang had been waiting for this: "In that case, why not kill two birds with one stone? Brother Aniu, take the initiative and use your best trick - the old farmer's cart!"
