"Damn it, just for mentioning a mere filial piety, what's going on in the whole city!" Mrs. Zhao smashed the expensive vase.
I heard people in the city compare Zhuang Xun's Zhongyi with the ruthlessness of Duke Zhenguo. Although the comparison was mainly between Zhuang Xun and Siqin Shengjing, there was always a voice accusing Duke Zhenguo of being ruthless and ruthless on the issue of collecting the corpses. righteous.
"Mom, please calm down. These are ignorant and unruly people spreading rumors. They don't know anything about loyalty, justice, benevolence and filial piety. They can even collect the corpse of the daughter of a guilty minister and it will be a good talk." Zhao Luofu knelt in front of the Zhao family and did not dare to raise his head. He was extremely respectful. , and whispered to dissuade,
"Just spread the word, how can we slander our Lu family! She talks about cutting off her tail to survive, and preferring the new and hating the old. That bitch obviously has nothing to do with our family anymore. She has given her a divorce letter, so she can still be considered a member of our family?" Mrs. Zhao looked angry, with her eyes wide open. She looked extremely terrifying, without any pampering or kindness.
"It's been passed down. Even if that woman was giving porridge on the 15th day of the lunar month, how many people would say good things to her when she was executed. Reputation has some effect when it comes to promoting filial piety and integrity." Zhao Luofu consoled him, saying It is quite in line with the consistent cognition of these high-level sects.
"That's why I said she was losing money. So much food can be exchanged for so much gold, silver and jewelry. Is it useful to buy it for a false name? I pity my Bu Ming. She is holding her hostage and engaging in big fights to borrow small ones to pay back. This is not pure It's just a money-losing business." Mrs. Zhao became even more angry and slapped the table. Thinking of her rebellious son, her anger rushed straight to her forehead. In her opinion, it was better to sell the food and buy some money to save it instead of giving rice to the common people.
Look at Zhao Luofu, she feels a little better. This daughter-in-law is more sensible. She asks herself for advice on everything and doesn't do any unnecessary things.
"My Luofu is good, I like it the most, and my belly is good." Supporting Zhao Luofu, Zhao's anger became much less intense. 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. It's really not possible to let the man named Zhuang take care of him and solve this problem from the source." Zhao Luofu said arrogantly. He came from a high family. She was very proud of herself.
"This can't be done. If ordinary Xiaolian is fine, he will die. The death of Xiaolian in Yindu Mansion is equivalent to the assassination of an official. We will definitely be found out when the time comes. 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 go to Zhuang Xun to cause trouble. She would not be stupid in such a matter.
"Luofu understands and won't trouble him, but just watching him continue to slander our family?" Zhao Luofu said with emotion, just to empathize with Mrs. Zhao.
"Of course it's impossible to just look at it like this. When I think about it, he can contrast with our family and make our family seem cold and cold. Naturally, it can also contrast with other people. That woman helps so many people. Just mention a few. Come in, as long as we don't discuss our family, wouldn't it be good to let these mouthpiece people talk about other people and things? That bitch has helped so many people, why is this unruly man the only one to collect her body? Are they having an affair? "
She rolled her eyes, thinking about it, and she showed a sneer.
"All this can be spread out, saying that the unruly man named Zhuang loves that bitch woman, so no one else dares to collect the body of that bitch woman. Only he dares. They have an affair. Look at what this unruly man looks like. How about it?" Zhao learned the technique of transferring hot spots without any teacher.
"Mediocre." Zhao Luofu commented.
"Is that unrequited love?" It was said in a question, but in a statement tone.
"It's a bit of a temperament." Zhao Luofu thought about it and wanted to stigmatize Si Qinmi to enhance the legitimacy of his position.
She had been waiting for this position for a long time. Knowing that this aunt did not like her daughter-in-law, she asked her mother to do it.
"That's adultery! Our family gave that bitch a divorce certificate after they found out they were committing adultery." Zhao made up all the reasons.
Thinking of how to deal with Zhuang Xun, a smile appeared on her face. She took Zhao Luofu's hand and her family let her get close to him.
"But will those civilians believe it?" Zhao Luofu couldn't help but remind him, feeling that this plan was unreliable.
"So what if you believe it, so what if it doesn't work, it's fake. If you tell it too much, it will become true. Can that woman still defend herself that she didn't commit adultery with a man?" Ms. Zhao disagreed.
"Okay, let's not talk about this matter. How are you and Bu Ming doing?" Mrs. Zhao showed a concerned smile.
A hint of drunken red appeared on Zhao Luofu's face.
"No progress."
Mrs. Zhao pretended to be angry and said, "He actually dares to ignore you. He wants to ignore my good grandson."
"No, no, Lang Jun treats me very well and takes good care of me, but I feel like my mind is not here." Zhao Luofu whispered, Zhao Luofu did not dare to say bad things about Lu Buming.
"That treacherous son still misses him even after his death, as if he is haunted by ghosts. Tomorrow I will ask a mage to wake him up." When Zhao heard this, she immediately understood. This meant that he had not forgotten his old feelings.
"Mother, calm down, mother, please stop irritating Mr. Lang. He might make trouble and seek death again." Zhao Luofu persuaded.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with him. People can't be resurrected after death. No matter how much he thinks about it, you are already his wife." Zhao just found a step and went down.
"I have pity on my Luofu, please be more considerate. This person's brain is slow to react and cannot realize how good you are. When he knows how good you are, he will love you well." Ms. Zhao skillfully painted for Zhao Luofu. Pie.
"My husband loves me very much, and I will try my best to make him change his mind." Zhao Luofu ate the cake expertly, willing to beat and suffer.
"You are so virtuous. I don't know if Bu Ming is interested in that broom star. You should advise him properly." Having regained the power to control her son's destiny, Zhao was very satisfied, but she was still full of disgust for Si Qin Mi. Probably It was the other party who took away her control over her son before.
"There is one more thing Luofu wants to ask his mother. Should we still give porridge on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year?" Zhao Luofu said tangledly. She didn't want to face those poor people all day long.
"Giving money, if you don't give porridge, won't the reputation of the Sangmenxing be lost? If you give money for another year, you will stop after saying that the harvest of the land is not good. The same goes for those who borrow grain. Everything will be the same as before. Stop after one year." Zhao Shi calculated that he did not want Si Qinmi to gain any fame.
"My Luofu is still sensible and knows how to ask mother for everything, unlike that commoner girl who doesn't know the rules." Mrs. Zhao felt happy at Zhao Luofu's obedience, and the more she looked at Zhao Luofu, the more she liked him.
"You are the backbone of the family. Luo Fu still doesn't understand a lot, so he needs his mother's guidance. After all, you are the god of this family." Zhao Luofu is also very knowledgeable and tries his best to please Mrs. Zhao, saying,
"You are also the wife of this family. If Bu Ming bullies you, just tell me and I will teach him a lesson." Mrs. Zhao was very pleased with this compliment and promised Zhao Luofu.
"How could 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, a woman who frightened and worried Zhuang Xun was watching the scenery on the stage.
The mountains are full of red leaves, moving with the wind, and glowing red under the halo of the sun. The beautiful woman is dressed in colorful clothes, sipping tea with bare hands, the breeze blows her hair, the noble lady lightly holds her black silk, a bit elegant and gentle, matching Her mature but cold face is fascinating.
"Junior sister Jiang, if you are interested, come and see this old bone of mine." The old Taoist with the immortal style and purple robe sat on the bench in the courtyard and greeted the beautiful woman.
"Last time we were away, Senior Brother had not yet become the Purple Mansion. Now it seems that the three flowers have gathered together, and he is not far from the road to becoming an immortal." The beautiful woman put down her tea cup and complimented.
"It would be good if he died. The king of Yu State is ignorant, the generals of the country are not good, and the fate of the country will be affected." The old Taoist shook his head and looked a little pessimistic.
"Why don't you change the family? Senior brother, you have a deep connection with the immortal world. It won't hurt if you don't have the protection of the Yu Kingdom." The beautiful woman smiled and extended the invitation.
"No, no, we are already in too deep. But Junior Sister Jiang, you have already completed the Purple Mansion, and there is a chance of becoming an immortal. It seems that the rising power of the Zhao Kingdom has given you great help." The old Taoist has a sharp eye, and he can see it at a glance. Show the beauty of a beautiful woman.
"It's just a fluke." The beautiful woman said modestly.
"Luck is also a necessary condition for cultivating Taoism. Who would have thought that Yu State would become like this in just a few decades." The old Taoist sighed.
"This is also the helplessness that is tied to the destiny of the country. I have seen many things, but I can only pretend that I have not seen them. It is nothing more than nothing. Now I understand what the master said that I can't help myself." The old Taoist expression was solemn.
"Power can make a generation of wise kings corrupt, and it can also make an energetic young man become short-sighted and arrogant. He did not leave in time. Now that he wants to leave, he can no longer do it. The old man can only be buried with the big ship of Yu State. Yes." The old Taoist smiled instead, showing a bright smile, with the natural feeling of the immortal family.
"Eldest Brother, is this really something that cannot be violated? I remember that Eldest Brother has the strongest immortality among us brothers and sisters, so can't he break away from the constraints of the dynasty and the fate of the country?" The beautiful woman frowned and said in disbelief.
"There is very little left in the Great Yu Dynasty. Every time you intervene, you are depleting your own immortality. Junior Sister Jiang, now that the Zhao Kingdom is strong and prosperous, you have taken action and the returns will be positive, but the monarch is unjust. , the country is going downhill, no matter what you do, it is to reduce the cost of immortality, so you have to not do it. You are the queen mother of Zhao State, and the entanglement is deeper. You must ascend to immortality as soon as possible when Zhao State is strong, otherwise you should leave as soon as possible. "The old Taoist took a sip of tea and said.
"Xiannuo understands, thank you senior brother for your advice." Jiang Xiannuo put down the teacup and said solemnly.
"Not to mention pointers, the master has reminded us many times, but only when we really step into the mess of the world of mortals and are entangled in the threads of the world of mortals and have no way to break free will we think of his advice." The old Taoist put down his tea cup and fell into memories. explain.
"We always think that we can correct the path by relying on our own abilities. Little do we know that we are just practitioners and do not 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 know that your immortality is diminishing. You can't go against it, and retreat immediately. I just want to fight them, and finally fix myself permanently. Yu Guo is on this rotten ship.
The immortal family's magical methods cannot affect these officials who are protected by the national destiny. They can only watch them push the country's big ship into the abyss. "
The old Taoist told his own experience, his smile a little bitter. Not everyone can dance well while wearing shackles.
"Elder brother, why are you doing it?" Jiang Xiannuo shook his head. The old Taoist state was already very clear. Without the support of the dynasty's luck, the path to immortality was dead. The reason was naturally that he interfered in government affairs and the policies he made were deviated from the plan. It will cause bad consequences, exhausting one's own immortality, and can only rely on the destiny of the dynasty and the country.
"I'm not willing to accept it, but I'm also angry. This country is just like your own vegetable garden. How can I bear to see them being eaten by moths." The old Taoist smiled helplessly.
"Xiannuo understands how you feel, senior brother, and I treat Zhao Guo the same way. This is also the price of our entry into the world and practice. Xiannuo has already been prepared." Jiang Xiannuo said seriously.
The price of being free in the immortal world is not to be a spectator in the mortal world. Now that you have entered the mortal world, the leisure of sitting back and watching the rise and fall of the dynasty no longer exists.
"Yes, there are gains and losses. You didn't invite Lao Dao here just to reminisce about old times. If you weren't here in Zhao country, did you start planning to fight for the dragon?" Lao Dao changed the subject.
"Yes, Empress Xuannu once met Xiannuo and said that Xiannuo would be the son and mother of the emperor. Xiannuo has been preparing for this for more than twenty years." Jiang Xiannuo admitted generously.
"The old Taoist also has the heart of Fu Longting, but it is a pity that the huge royal family of the Yu Kingdom cannot find a monarch who aspires to the world." The old Taoist lamented, feeling quite depressed that his talent was not being recognized.
"Perhaps he is hiding it. After all, the emperor's vein is not visible, and it is difficult to find the Daluo Golden Immortal. Except for the king of a country who is sure to have the emperor's vein, it is possible for everyone else." Jiang Xiannuo persuaded.
Out of selfish motives, she hoped that Lao Dao could find a suitable monarch to support her in the Yu State. After all, she was a fellow disciple. Out of public motives, letting the Yu State collapse now would be detrimental to the Zhao State.
"There is no need to comfort the old Tao. I have never tried this group of royal children in the Yu Kingdom. They are a bunch of rotten trees. These princes are all riddled with evil. They still want to get a kind word from the old Tao. What they want is beautiful." The old Tao did not hide his feelings towards him at all. The contempt of the royal children.
"Tell me, what's going on? People with your personality don't like to show off." The old man took another sip of hot tea.
"Since you have guessed, Senior Brother, that I am planning to fight for the dragon, I will not hide it from you. The current Yu State cannot be defeated. If You State annexes the Yu State, it will inevitably dominate Jizhou." Jiang Xiannuo said slowly.
"What's the difficulty? As long as you Zhao State sends troops to attack You State from behind, Yu State's danger of destruction will naturally be lifted." The old Taoist said with a chuckle.
"The State of Zhao is now divided into two fronts to guard against the attacks of Jing and Zheng. There are really no soldiers to attack the State of You." Jiang Xiannuo was also helpless. Zhao Guo was strong again, 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 with all the layers of dye.
"Now Chengguo is mobilizing, and Cheng and Yu are closely related. Chengguo really wants to help Yuguo survive this disaster, but Yuguo is unwilling to cooperate. Xiannuo wants to ask senior brother to persuade King Yu to take the initiative. Attack and expel Youguo." Jiang Xiannuo took two steps back, folded her hands, and solemnly saluted.
"The old man agreed to this request, but your majesty is no longer something that the old man can persuade. The old man can only say that he will do his best." The old man was silent for a long time, seeming to be thinking about the pros and cons of doing so, and then turned to Jiang Xian, who was bending to plead. Chu replied.
"Thank you, Senior Brother, Xiannuo will keep it in my heart." Jiang Xiannuo showed a charming smile, but restrained herself from turning into a graceful smile, keeping her demeanor intact.
