Chapter 230: Purple MSI?

Seeing that Chong Lan treated him like this, Wang Cong seemed to despise himself. Even Zhe Yuelan, a woman who appeared out of nowhere, was much more polite than he was. He couldn't help but secretly asked: Is his senior brother not as good as a stranger?

Wang Cong thought that his spells were inferior to others, maybe it was because of this that she despised him, but he was helpless about this.

In the end, Wang Cong went to Chong's house to stay, because Chong Lan had to stay with his mother for a few days.

For Mrs. Chong, her daughter was taken away by the immortals for seven or eight years before, and when she came back, it was the age of her grandmother. Mrs. Chong was worried about her marriage and asked her what she said. Unexpectedly, Chong Lan told her that she only wanted to end the red dust when she came down the mountain, so that she could go back to the mountain to pursue immortality. Madam Chong knew that she was afraid that she would not be able to arrange a marriage at will.

When Wang Cong saw that Chong Lan still hadn't set out for the capital, he didn't move, and Zhe Yuelan saw that Wang Cong didn't leave, so she had to go down.

Although Zhe Yuelan came from a family of generals, and there were many female generals in the Zhe family, she only knew a few three-legged cat kung fu and did not practice well. Because of her beautiful appearance and a direct daughter, she is favored by her father and brother at home. She has not practiced martial arts hard, and the servants around her will protect her.

But Zhe Yuelan's chess, piano, calligraphy and paintings are quite good, and she won't be cold with Zhong and Wang.

By late April, the three finally set off for the capital. Chong Lan rejected the maid and servant that the family gave her, and set off alone. Wang Cong was also a horse, but only Zhe Yuelan followed a maid and a servant.

This way, they went east. It was raining heavily on the road that day. There was a temple nearby, so they went in to take shelter from the rain. Because the monk said that this temple also enshrines the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Chong Lan had been to Luojia Mountain with his master, so he proposed to offer incense to the Bodhisattva. Passing through the veranda and arriving in front of the Guanyin Temple, the servants stopped him, saying that the girls in their family were offering incense and asked them to come to offer incense later.

Chong Lan didn't care, so he wanted to listen to the rain under the porch for a while, but Zhe Yuelan's maid was unhappy and stepped forward and said, "Who is your girl? Dare to be so domineering? This temple is open to welcome pilgrims, our girl Why can't you go in?"

The maid said, "Is the name of our girl that you can inquire about at will? You wait outside, and it doesn't take much time. Do you need to make a theory?"

Zhe Yuelan's maid, Si Zhu'er, couldn't help being annoyed and said, "Whose girl is so flamboyant! Do you know who our young lady is?"

The maid said: "Haha, I have to ask for advice."

Zhu'er said, "Our girl is the first lady of the Marquis of Wu'an family."

The maid was a little surprised, but she didn't mean to be soft, she only said: "It turns out that she is a girl from the Marquis of Wu'an. Our girl is the granddaughter of Duke Yi, the daughter of the current envoy of the Lujing Lujing in Hubei Province."

At this time, not only Zhe Yuelan who let the maid go to fight with others was surprised, but also Chong Lan and Wang Cong. Although Zhe Yuelan came from an aristocratic family, and the clan of the Celestial Dynasty has always been very kind, but the Han family is also a century-old family in this dynasty.

Zhe Yuelan said: "Zhu'er, come back. You girl, with such a temper, I can't help you."

At this moment, a blue silk-shirted maid stepped out of the hall and helped a blue-clothed woman out of the hall, and the two maids who were guarding the door of the hall were also behind her. The woman in Tsing Yi wore a hood, and her figure was slender and graceful. Although she couldn't see her face, it also made people feel that she was full of romantic charm.

"Xuan'er, you are arguing with others again. How did I tell you on weekdays that when you arrive in Beijing, don't be too wild."

The maid named Xuan'er hurriedly pleaded guilty and said, "Girl, I happened to meet the daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an."

The woman in the blue robe and the hat said in shock, "Why didn't you say it earlier, but it's rude?"

Xuan'er was busy introducing Zhe Yuelan to the woman in Tsing Yi. After all, Zhe Yuelan was a woman from an aristocratic family and came forward to greet her.

With the help of the mammy, the woman in green clothes took off her hat, revealing a fair face, she saw her handsome eyes trimmed her eyebrows, her shoulders slender and her neck slender, and she was very beautiful.

This young lady's name is Han Ying, she is as beautiful as cherry blossoms, so charming, I see you pity.

Zhe Yuelan had to introduce Wang Cong and Chong Lan again. Chong Lan laughed heartlessly, only to feel that this trip down the mountain, why did she meet beautiful women again and again.

In terms of beauty, Chong Lan is definitely higher than them, and Chong Lan is a serious Immortal Sect disciple. It's just that Chong Lan goes out without any cumbersome pomp, and does everything by himself, unlike these girls, who have enough foreshadowing.

When Han Ying saw Wang Cong, she couldn't help but feel like a deer, and thought to herself, "How can there be such a handsome young man?"

In terms of age, Zheyuelan is the oldest, and she is almost seventeen, while Han Ying is sixteen and Chong Lan is only fifteen.

The boys and girls came in again to offer incense to Guanyin, and Chong Lan humbly let Wang Cong and Zhe Yuelan do the incense first, and then they held the incense respectfully and offered the incense.

Suddenly, Avalokitesvara's avatar appeared, and the others were unaware, only Chong Lan saw it, and hurriedly kowtowed.

Guanyin nodded and said, "You have to cultivate a deed in the human world, and go through the world. Remember, love cannot be forced, it can break through the world, you can detach yourself, and you can't kill for nothing."

Chong Lan said: "The disciples should remember the teachings of the Bodhisattva."

After putting incense on Guanyin, Chong Lan also put three-pillar incense on Shancai, Hui'an, and Longnv. When it was time to put the incense on the dragon girl, the clay tire sculpture suddenly blinked. In ancient times, although there was a dispute between the dragon and the phoenix, but in this era, the two clans have been repaired, and the two clans have the same disease and pity each other, which is a great loss of status. Chong Lan is the reincarnation of the Phoenix girl, and she was friends with the dragon girl before and after her reincarnation.

After Chong Lan finished the incense, the two women Zhe and Han didn't realize what was happening, but Wang Cong, who was a disciple of Xuandu, found a clue and winked at her.

A few steps behind, Wang Cong asked her if the Bodhisattva appeared, Chong Lan glanced at him, Wang Cong said, "If you tell me, I will tell you."

Chong Lan wondered: "Did the Bodhisattva also explain to you?"

Wang Cong raised his eyebrows, but he didn't answer yes or no.

Although Chong Lan was taught that people are sinister, she is just like Zhang Wuji was taught by her mother before her death when she was a child. Even if she remembers education and has no personal experience, she will still have moments of innocence.

Chong Lan thought to himself that he was a disciple of Master Xuandu, and it was normal for the Bodhisattva to tell him anything, and sighed: "I don't know why the Bodhisattva would worry about me so much. I know that I want to take this opportunity to cultivate a merit. I will go look for my uncle, but what does 'love can't be forced, can break the world, don't kill karma for nothing' mean? Does this 'love' also have 'kill karma'? Could it be..."

"Is it what?"

Chong Lan thought to himself: Am I going to meet a handsome man like Shizu, and "kill his wife and seize his husband" for him?

Wang Cong said, "Why didn't you say it again?"

Chong Lan said, "You haven't said it yet."

"I asked first."

Chong Lan said: "If you are looking for your uncle, you have to tell me, nothing else."

Wang Cong was depressed again, and suddenly saw Zheyuelan Zhe came back, and said with a smile: "What are your brothers and sisters whispering?"

Wang Cong said: "It's a matter of the teacher's sect, and it's inconvenient to talk to outsiders."

Zhe Yuelan glanced at Chong Lan and saw that although she was young, her appearance was slightly better than her own, and she was still Wang Cong's junior sister, so she couldn't help feeling jealous. Zhe Yuelan didn't know that they had just met, only that they were brothers and sisters, and they were much more intimate than when she and Wang Cong met Pingshui, and Zhe Yuelan had no reason not to let them talk close.

There was still a day's drive away from the capital. At this time, the team grew bigger. At this time, not only Zhe Yuelan, a girl, but also Han Ying fell in love at first sight. the young man.

After entering Beijing, Zhe and Han each went back to their two mansions in the capital. Wang Cong now has no mansion in the capital, and followed Chong Lan back to Chong's house, but Chong Han was not at home. A lot of red tape to the family and not elaborate.

The two heard that the Protectorate County Lord was not in Beijing and had already gone on a tour of northern Xinjiang. Chong Lan had to go to the main mansion of Zhongmin County to visit Bai Suzhen. She heard her master talk about Bai Suzhen and Cen Biqing, and Wang Cong's relationship was much farther away, so she had to go with her.

…

Bai Suzhen was going to go out to inspect the pharmacy, and saw the invitation from the servant. Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian nominally reconciled, but they co-founded the Baohe Pharmacy, which produced a large number of military medicines. Therefore, in addition to apprenticeships, she also manages the pharmacy.

Chong Lan and Wang Cong stayed in the living room for a while, only drank a sip of tea, and suddenly saw a woman in white walk into the hall, with a graceful figure and a dusty temperament, as if she was only in her twenties.

Chong Lan bowed: "Chong Lan has seen Senior Sister Bai!"

Bai Suzhen looked at her and said with a smile: "Junior Sister Chong, she has grown so big. Back then, Qing'er and I were fortunate to listen to the scriptures under the master's seat and met you in a hurry. You are still a child of eight or nine years old."

Chong Lan smiled and said, "The little sister has grown up, and the senior sisters are still young forever."

Bai Suzhen said: "Speaking of which, it is unfortunate that your junior sister Cen is on a tour of the north with Madam. I am afraid that you will not be able to come back until after winter."

Chong Lan said: "Is there another war in the northern border?"

"I'm not sure..." Bai Suzhen saw Wang Cong again and said, "This is..."

Wang Cong said, "Zhao Cong at Guigu Gate has seen Senior Sister Bai."

Bai Suzhen's cultivation is extraordinary, she pinched her fingers and said, "Are you from the imperial clan of the Celestial Dynasty?"

Zhao Cong said: "It is a distant clan, and my father is just a small official."

Chong Lan said, "You said your surname was Wang before."

Zhao Cong clasped his hands and said, "Don't be blamed, Junior Sister. When I met Junior Sister, it happened to be a chance to subdue the demon together. The goblin and I lied about their surnames Wang, and I was embarrassed to change my words with you later."

Chong Lan said: "No, you and Sister Zhe also said the surname was Wang."

Zhao Cong said: "I met her by chance. There are differences between men and women. If I don't tell her by my real name, there is nothing to hinder it."

Chong Lan said: "Forget it, it's a real surname and a fake surname, what does it have to do with me."

Bai Suzhen smiled and asked the two to sit down. Because they asked about their studies in the teacher's school, especially Chong Lan, the two answered one by one.

Bai Suzhen's background is extraordinary. She has the ability to figure out that Zhang Yutang is a boy who chooses fragrance from the sky, and she already knows the identity of her fellow junior sister. With these, she can of course figure out Zhao Cong's origin at this time.

Bai Suzhen smiled and said, "If Madam is not in Beijing, I can't be your master. However, your uncle is the queen of the dynasty. I recommend you to go to the palace to visit her."

Although Xue Ji is not as high as Bai Suzhen in Taoism, she is of high seniority. She has taken care of the pregnant Zhang Su for nine years, helped rescue the emperor, and defeated the East Road army. After a country, no matter how good Bai Suzhen's roots are and how strong her cultivation is, she has to respect her.

Bai Suzhen entered the palace according to human etiquette, and Xue Ji met Bai Suzhen in the garden when both the emperor and Jing'an were taking a nap.

Although Xue Ji's cultivation base and root feet still can't make her figure out the secrets, but she has followed Zhang Su for a long time, and she has to personally teach her master Tongtian, and she can guess some things after listening to them say a few words.

At first, Xue Ji came to the emperor's side because of everyone's common deeds, but she has been a queen for a long time, and it is not that she has no selfishness at all. She also wanted to give birth to a son to inherit the throne, but she knew that this was impossible. It was a special grace that Heaven could allow her to give birth to a son and a daughter. Taking a step back, in the Nine-Tailed Fox Royal Family, she is the weakest among the siblings, but she got a chance to survive, and then rose step by step. Now, as a disciple of the Master of Tongtian Cult, she has such a great achievement. If she is more greedy, the way of heaven will not allow her.

Xue Ji sighed: "The emperor and the nine kings are nearly dead, and neither the emperor nor the nine kings have children. When the uncle was in the world, he could help the society. When the uncle retired, the clan was so weak, I was afraid that The country changed hands, the world was in chaos, and in the end, it was cheaper for the foreigners."

Bai Suzhen sighed softly, only women understand women best. Before marrying Xu Xian, Bai Suzhen also wanted to be silent for six thoughts and only wanted to ascend, but after marrying Xu Xian, she knew that she was wrong and also covets the love of husband and wife, and wanted to have a son.

Bai Suzhen didn't believe that Xue Ji was only taking advantage of the emperor without any sincerity. No matter how bad the emperor is, he has only had Xue Ji for so many years, and he has always depended on her everywhere. People have feelings for a long time, and women will soften their hearts towards poor and wholehearted men.

Even Ling Fei could hardly have this problem. Back then, a big villain like Li Hongxiu Aiyuan Suiyun had no feelings for the big hero Chu Liuxiang, that's all. No matter how bad a man is, but he is pitiful and treats a woman wholeheartedly, and a woman's motherhood will be inspired.

Xue Ji said: "Tomorrow, let that child come into the palace and meet the emperor."

…

The next day, Zhao Cong entered the palace to see the emperor. He responded calmly, advanced and retreated in a moderate manner, was both civil and military, and had an extraordinary appearance.

When the emperor reviewed the memorials, Xue Ji mostly served him tea, and the emperor would also ask her to approve some of the memorials on his behalf.

After Xue Ji served ginseng tea to the emperor, the emperor put down the memorial and let out a long sigh.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Xue Ji asked gently.

The emperor said: "I am nearly forty years old, and I am still childless."

Xue Ji said, "It's all mine, isn't it? It's better for Your Majesty to accept two concubines, so as to spread the branches and leaves."

The emperor shook his head and said: "The ninth brother is also childless, he is not as good as me, and I still have Jing An by my side. If even the empress can't give birth to a son for me, there will be no woman in the world. The Zhao clan's arrogance may not be false."

Xue Ji sighed softly, and the emperor said again: "I was in the past when my father passed the throne to me, but now I am afraid no one will believe it. I didn't want to take the throne at first, but I had to. When I came to Yangzhou, the ministers came to force me one by one. Whether it was staying in the capital or going to the enemy camp, the people below asked me to do it. When I moved, they asked me with the national body, dignity, and backbone. I knew that I did not do it well. Okay…"

Xue Ji sighed: "But the emperor still faced the things that most mortals would be afraid of, and he has already surpassed most of the people in the world."

The emperor said: "But I am the emperor, better than most of the people in the world, is it really enough? I know that the queen already knows it, but I don't say that your adversity for me is what I value the most. "

Xue Ji couldn't help but feel a little sad, and the emperor said again: "I know that although the territory is peaceful now, the country may not be stable. Once you leave the protector of the country, you will die either outside or in civil strife."

Xue Ji finally opened her mouth and said, "But Shishu still wants to... go into seclusion in the end."

The emperor said, "That's why you introduced Zhao Cong to see me."

Xue Ji did not speak for a while, and the emperor said: "I may not be proficient in other military and political affairs, but I know very well that the national humiliation has not yet snowed, and the clan is so weak at this time, it is difficult to suppress the ministers and the family. Not enough to defend against foreign enemies."

Xue Ji said: "Your Majesty, as long as I have you and Jing'an, I don't want anything else. Only the emperor and the nine wise kings of Taizong's royal family are still alive, but Taizu's descendants are still alive. Victory. If the two branches join together, the Zhao clan of the Celestial Dynasty will be stable. We will avoid the danger of foreign surnames chasing the masters, and after we have decided on the names, the Taizu branch will have to support us, otherwise we will have nothing to say about the world."

The emperor said: "Only one point, this Zhao Cong is a little older."

Xue Ji said: "I have already inquired, Zhao Cong left home at the age of six and went to the gate of Guigu, so he didn't spend much time with his relatives."

The emperor said, "Under the Gate of Ghost Valley? That's a master from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Why did he still appear in my court?"

Xue Ji thought for a while, and said, "Actually... Guigu should be my uncle's disciple. He has already become an immortal, and he has always liked to accept some mortals with outstanding materials as his disciples. The cultivation of Senior Brother Guigu is very contemptuous and difficult for me. Looking at his back, even my uncle is afraid that he will also respect him three points."

The emperor sighed: "As expected, the Di people killed me with rage, and the destiny is not mine anymore."

Xue Ji didn't say more, even if the emperor understood, but his temperament, as long as no officials forced him, he would not have the courage to violate the "number of days" by himself. And when he had no sons and adopted heirs, there were no courtiers to oppose him. There were already several emperors in this dynasty who had no sons to succeed him.

The emperor thought about it for two days, and then summoned several close literati who were not from a great family to discuss it. The literati saw that the emperor had no children for several years, and now he adopted a son for the sake of stability. In ancient society, an emperor in his thirties is not too young. He has no son in his thirties, so he is in a hurry.

As a result, the civil servants negotiated a statute and summoned Zhao Cong's biological parents to Beijing to discuss the adoption.

The emperor also rewarded Zhao Cong with a temporary residence and many other things.

…

However, Zhang Su said that Zhang Tianxin, Cen Biqing, and all the Wujin soldiers who were newly appointed as captains were on a northern tour of the North Road.

At this time, Yue Langjun and his subordinates, who were also the envoys of the east and west routes of Hebei, had spent five years building four large cities and more than 30 small castles along the river channels and Guanyin key roads with the support of Zhang Su.

In addition, the land was divided among the refugees in the two roads of Hebei. Because the settlement of the farmland was free of land tax and head tax, Zhang Su and the nine kings were guaranteed by the court. With the efforts of Yue Langjun and his subordinates, a total of one million refugees settled the farmland, mainly planting wheat and rice. cotton. These villagers also made outstanding contributions to building the city.

Although Zhang Xiu didn't think that building the city was the best way to prevent the northern nomads, it was the only way she could use during the time when she was recovering the economy, recuperating, and letting the people breathe.

Everything takes time, and when the people have no food to eat, and even officials are short of people to do, let these ancient people understand how to cast cannons one by one. Even if they wanted to reach Beidi, they had to have stability in the rear and sufficient food supplies, so the placement of the people was the first priority.

Although this dynasty is not completely in line with official history, the logic is still the same.

For example, in the Southern Song Dynasty, Song Lizong allied Mengmeng to destroy Jin, and when it entered Henan, it was a lack of food and grass, delaying fighter opportunities. Later, the Mongolian army treacherously counterattacked the Song army, but the result was defeated. In the case of lack of food and grass, either there is not enough food, or there are no people who can work.

A dynasty that has just returned to the old capital, just because these two things are not enough, so the objective conditions of the past few years are impossible to beat, so it is necessary to pragmatically do a good job of defense.

Zhang Su inspected several small castles in Zhending Mansion and Hejian Mansion. On the main road, small towns were connected to small towns, and small towns and small towns were jointly defended.

Although the terrain of the North China Plain is flat, there are still many rivers in the Hejian area, occupying the city on the official road, and the Di army is not suitable for marching. If they took the trouble to take a detour, they would also commit the big taboo of going alone. The Celestial troops in the cities behind cut off their trails or raided their supplies, and the other party would also be tragic. A few years ago, Di Jun did not dare to be exhausted alone. If you stay in the country for a long time, you should be afraid now. The important role of these large and small cities was to receive the people and their materials before the war.

When I arrived in Yingzhou that day, and Yue Langjun was here, Zhang Su brought the imperial edict and went to read it. On behalf of the emperor and the court, the officials of Hebei Road were commended.

There are many generals who are not in the handsome mansion, but several civil servants and generals present are all happy and shouting long live.

After Yue Langjun got up, he held his hand and said, "The county lord actually came from Dingzhou, and the lower official thought that the county lord would come directly to Yingzhou, and he has not left recently."

Zhang Su smiled slightly and said, "Pengju, there is no need to be so polite between you and me."

Yue Langjun said: "It is only through the efforts of the uncle and the master to fight for us in the DPRK that we can perform in Hebei."

Zhang Su said, "Has there been any movement from Di Ren recently?"

Yue Langjun said: "There is no major movement, but a small group of troops detoured into the rear and robbed the people. They robbed and left. This is embarrassing. When the small group of troops is not easy to find, some people will inevitably suffer loss."

Zhang Sudao: "If the Di people don't make a big move, the next stage is to increase the training of the militia. The Di people have a small population and rely on the whole people to be soldiers."

So far, the Celestial Dynasty has not been able to create fire cannons immediately, and it is not bad that the plains can connect the big cities to the small cities along the river and the main official road. Hey, there is no danger of high or low terrain to rely on, but what about the underground?

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, how did ordinary people prevent devils from entering the village? Is it possible to use tunnels to let the people protect themselves?
