They didn't have to wait long. The change in atmosphere was sudden, for the music played by the court musicians immediately changed its tune. Compared with the briskness of the courtyard and the majesty of the palace, it now seems a bit... monotonous. But it is not boring and monotonous. Each of the five tones and seven tones has its own place. It does not make people feel boring, but instead creates an ethereal feeling. The music took a turn for the worse and suddenly became steeper. It turned out that the Imperial Master came from behind the side screen. There were maids on both sides, blocking their view of the Imperial Master.
The maid stopped, and the Imperial Master stepped up the steps and approached the throne. They were stunned again, no less surprised than they had been when they learned that Her Majesty the Queen was a girl.
The national preceptor is a woman, or in other words, a girl. Apparently, he must not be more than seventeen or eighteen years old.
Her hair was smooth and shiny, a very special light brown color, and was braided in two fluffy braids on her chest, which were loose and loose, as if they would unravel at any time. Although there are no additional accessories on his head, the material and workmanship of this outfit are no worse than His Majesty's yellow robe.
But in the end, there's nothing surprising about it. After all, he is a god, and he claims to be a god. Monsters can change into ever-changing forms with their demonic power, and it doesn't take much divine power to maintain a young and beautiful appearance. Who doesn’t love beauty?
"Sister National Master, they-"
It seems that His Majesty still relies heavily on this national advisor. Although they don't look alike, they look a bit like sisters because of their clothes. Her Majesty was about to say something, and she stretched out a thin finger to indicate that she did not need to say more. Then, she picked up the pottery bird in His Majesty's hand. The Imperial Master tapped the bird's beak with his other hand. Suddenly, as if someone was blowing on it, the water and air inside automatically made a chirping sound. The shouting continued for a while, and the young national master nodded and said:
"Well, I know everything. You want to treat the Queen Mother, don't you?"
The Imperial Master turned around, his eyes narrowed with a smile, and his thick eyelashes covered the gaps. For some reason, Bai Ya always felt that her smile was like a happy golden fox. Speaking of foxes, he thought of the Grand Master of Xinyue Palace. Her double-snail bun looked like a fox even behind the curtain. To some extent, these two people gave him similar discomfort.
However, the National Master's voice is so, so sweet that no instrument can be used to describe it. The tone is melodious and melodious, as if whispering softly in everyone's ears, yet paradoxically a bit empty, making people unable to distinguish distance from near, only feeling haunted. Bai Ya admitted that her voice was pleasant, but he was also keenly aware that even this voice had been processed and filled with a little bit of divine power. As for what?
However, he couldn't complain in front of his face. Liu Shenghan just nodded and said nothing more. The Imperial Master jumped down the steps of the throne and came to them. The Imperial Master circled around the four people twice and stayed in front of Liu Shenghan for a short while. Then she said to her:
"I have heard of you, Mrs. Liu. My brother-in-law told me that there is a very good doctor in his country, and even he admires your talent very much."
Qi Huan was a little confused: "Excuse me, your wise brother is..."
The Imperial Master did not look at him, but continued to stare at Liu Shenghan. However, she did answer his question.
"There must be only one god in Xiangji Kingdom."
"You and Lord Xiangshen..."
"Well, we should be said to be the gods closest to heaven. You are very lucky - to see us."
She was still smiling, tilting her head, and hanging the sacred words on her lips like drinking water, as if it were normal. The slightly frivolous attitude is in line with the aloof feeling of some gods. They had already felt this from the Gandharvas. Listening to what she said, I wonder what kind of relationship the two have.
Jun Aoyan never liked catering, and her expression became ugly. In order to prevent her and Bai Ya from suddenly causing trouble, Qi Huan quickly continued the topic and asked: "Why do you say this? If this is really the case, we will be very lucky."
Liu Shenghan remained silent, and the singer Jinnara finally moved his eyes away from her. At the same time, she used one foot as the center, lightly kicked the other foot on the ground, turned in a circle, and skillfully pulled herself back on the edge that looked like she was about to fall. Then she paced back and forth between the Queen and them, hands behind her back. Bai Ya didn't want to look at her anymore and felt dizzy. Just before he was about to look away, he suddenly glanced at the screen where she appeared. There are people painted on the screen, but the lines are stiff and the style is a little strange, and the outlines of the people can only be barely discernible. However, looking at the round ball with a hole in one hand and the other holding a stick - maybe a dagger - the design looks like a Kinnara. Looking at the screen on the other side of the hall, we can tentatively recognize the appearance of a Gandharva. It seems that the two of them... no, the two gods are indeed related.
"We come from heaven."
Kinnara suddenly stopped in the middle of the hall, somewhere far away from them. She opened her arms as if gesturing towards the sky.
"Is it the heaven where the gods are?"
"Exactly. We know best what kind of place the heaven is. We, sister and brother, were originally the royal musicians of Lord God. This descent to earth is also the will of Lord God. We want to lead qualified people to the pure land of heaven. . Although for us, it is also a very boring place, and we come down to have fun, which is what we want. But for you mortals, it is indeed a very good place! Have you ever seen the censer mirage? Have you seen it?"
"Fortunate to see it."
"That's great! That's easier to say - a mirage is just a pile of wonderful things in the mortal world. The heaven is a thousand or ten thousand times better than there. Compared to these earthly things, there is nothing heavenly people can do there. Yes, only the unexpected!”
"Well, it does sound very attractive." Bai Ya said dryly, "Why don't you acknowledge us by the way - is there any blessing ceremony? We can travel around the world, obtain permission from the gods, and get closer to the heaven. step."
"Yes, Master Imperial Master——" Qi Huan said quickly, "Why don't we treat the Queen Mother. If she is cured..."
"no."
The Imperial Master suddenly said coldly. They looked at her again, but instead of smiling, she opened her eyes wide. There was a certain biting cold wind in that look, as if it was about to pierce people. This change was so fast that it was a little overwhelming for a while.
The queen, who had been watching the excitement from the throne, shook her legs and interceded for them.
"But the queen mother..."
"No."
The Imperial Master's attitude was milder, but his tone was still unquestionable. She turned around, walked up the steps, and came to His Majesty's side. She leaned down and said softly:
"Have you forgotten what mother said? Except for family members, there are no good people in the world. Others are good for a while, but they may become bad at some point. I am not targeting Mrs. Liu and the others - no matter who it is, they may change in an instant. There are many people who turn against you. After getting benefits, there are many people who no longer work hard to make progress. As a god, I have seen through a lot, not to mention your mother who has experienced it personally. She single-handedly organized the country of Ge Shen into the beautiful appearance it is today - —Under my guidance. I am also your family, and I am enough for everything."
Her Majesty the Queen nodded in understanding. She raised her voice a little higher and said to several people:
"You've heard it too. It's hard for me to figure out your thoughts just based on your words. My mother's illness was caused by outsiders. Although I'm very grateful for your small gift, there's nothing I can do about it. I'll reward you some more. Things, once the customs are stamped, you can quickly leave with your things."
"...Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
It can't be said that he entered the palace with dignity, but he was "kicked out" in despair, without even a bite of food. This is really unpleasant, and it’s hard to say anything about it. As for Liu Shenghan, she hadn't said a few words since the Imperial Master appeared. But she also said before that she had never met the singer, so she couldn't have any personal grudges, right? Qi Huan asked this question when we found a random restaurant in the evening. They didn't ask for much because they were already too hungry.
"I really don't have any personal grudge against her. It's probably my bias - I think she is not a kind person."
"You're not prejudiced." Bai Ya suddenly raised his head to answer while still stuffing his mouth with rice, "That guy is not a good person at first glance."
"Oh, I heard that too beautiful women have problems. Well, you are not included -"
Before the two girls' hands froze, Qi Huan immediately answered with a desire to survive, so as not to lose a long-lost dinner. It doesn't matter that the Imperial Master is a child, and it can be explained by divine power, but it makes no sense that His Majesty is a child. Isn't the Queen Mother not dead yet? Although it is indeed inhumane to review official documents while awake, at least in their hometown, the throne is tightly held in the hands of the reigning emperor, and the imperial seal is still clutched until the moment before entering the coffin— -It’s not like no one has ever done this.
After the meal, they did not rush back to the inn where they rested, but found a tavern. The little queen was quite generous, and the supplies she sent had to be driven to her residence by horse and cart - even though there was only one. Taverns have always been a good place to ask for gossip. Among those smells that are unpleasant to others, I will not remember any face if I do not feel any discomfort or even feel happy. Unless, you are a foreign face with some representative clothes. But that's not a problem either. With such an identity, it is easy to obtain all kinds of information. But before today, Bai Ya had never inquired about the news in such a high-profile manner.
After going back and forth for most of the night, Qi Huan felt like he was being fed and had a headache. He definitely didn't drink less. He couldn't remember exactly how many cups he drank, but he only knew that it was measured by the pound. Jun Aoyan's drinking capacity was almost as good as his, but he also drank until his stomach burned. Only Liu Shenghan had not touched a drop of wine in the past few hours. She said it wasn't that she couldn't drink, she just didn't want to drink. It wasn't like he came over to talk to him without any brains, and even started to use his hands and feet, but Bai Ya chopped him up on the table with a knife, and most of the old wood cracked. Judging from that posture, the shopkeeper no longer planned to let him pay. Firstly, the theory may not work, and secondly, the money they spent on drinks was enough to renovate a set of tables and chairs in the entire lobby.
Unfortunately, there is not much valuable information. No one seemed surprised that the Queen was a child, except that the song diva was described slightly differently. There were only a few people who had met the Imperial Master, and no one knew whether he was bragging or not. However, two people still said that they heard from hearsay that they knew that the national master looked very young. They don't know any more details.
As for the Queen Mother, shortly after the late Emperor died of illness, there was a consort sitting next to her. They had a son and a daughter, but the son had an accident and lost his life, so they doted on their little daughter, which made her a little bit troublesome, but it was harmless. Later, the prince-in-law suddenly left, saying he was looking for his son. But after so many years, he and his son have not come back. Maybe they are both dead, but no one dares to say so in front of His Majesty. Later, Her Majesty the Queen did not "continue the string", and the country was in turmoil because of the large amount of money spent on finding the prince. Besides, there was no one left to find the prince's son-in-law. It must not have been easy for her and her daughter in the days before the current national master appeared.
No one knew much about Your Majesty's illness. They only knew that she was unwell.
