The fat-headed phoenix is swaying, giving people a soft feeling.
Jiang Wuji didn't dare to look further. At the same time, he was also worried that the Queen Mother would remember what she had just been secretly pinched, so he took the initiative to change the topic.
"Is this your first time riding a horse? Your humble equestrian skills are okay, how about..."
Hearing this, the Queen Mother's picturesque eyebrows frowned slightly: "Hey, I have been riding a horse since I was a child. This white colt has a docile temperament. I often ride it. I don't know why today..."
He often rides it to play... Jiang Wuji suppressed his messy thoughts and walked to the white horse that was beaten to death by his own punch to observe.
It's a fine horse, what a pity...
Horses don’t get frightened for no reason, especially if they are docile.
According to the Queen Mother, this horse was her old playmate, so there was no reason to throw her off.
Jiang Wuji started to check.
The horse's shoe iron is fine, the reins are fine, and the luxurious saddle is surrounded by green beads. No wonder it is said that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles...
After taking off the saddle, several blood marks on the horse's back appeared in his eyes.
"What is this?" The Queen Mother stretched out her snow-white neck, her little face looked puzzled.
"The reason why Bai Ju was frightened."
"Um?"
Jiang Wuji found several sharp iron needles from the back of the saddle and roughly restored the process of Bai Ju's fright.
Someone hid a needle in the saddle in advance. When the Queen Mother sat on it, the needle would prick the horse's back. Because the horse was stronger, it was difficult for the petite Queen Mother to use her weight to sit on the needle.
But riding a horse is bumpy, and Dabai escapes from constant collisions. These needles will naturally hurt Baiju.
After listening to Jiang Wuji's analysis, the Queen Mother turned pale and let out a big breath.
"Is there someone who wants to harm me?!"
ah? Is there any need to doubt this? ...Jiang Wuji didn't know the situation in the palace, so he comforted him: "It is difficult to comment on this matter due to my humble position. It would be better for the Queen Mother to ask the Holy One later."
"I must ask her!"
After a cup of tea, Fathead Fish came over. When he saw Jiang Wuji and the Queen Mother together, his expression became a little complicated.
Fat-headed Fish is a one-word King of Side by Side, and is also the sister of the Holy Emperor, so she is basically equal to a walking "I am here in person" gold medal.
As soon as she saw the Queen Mother, she started crying, saying that someone was trying to harm me, what a lousy place this was! Broken place! Broken place! I can’t stay any longer!
Jiang Wuji maintained a melon-eating attitude throughout the whole process, without any peeing.
The fat-headed fish shouted "Mother" in his mouth, and his hands were like coaxing a little girl. Jiang Yindao was so excited no matter how he looked at it, bah! It's strange...
King Luo took the Queen Mother away first, and then returned and took Jiang Wuji to see the Empress after she was comforted.
In the royal study, the aroma of wine overflows.
The empress, who had put on a loose robe, was leaning behind the white jade table, her narrow eyes revealing a lazy charm.
"Holy, Your Majesty?" The fat-headed fish was shocked. In just a moment, you have changed your clothes? !
At this time, Jiang Wuji's condition was not much better. He didn't know where to look, because based on his experience, he could tell at a glance that the empress was not restrained.
He had imagined many scenes of meeting the saint, but he never expected that the empress would be honest with him, wearing only one Taoist robe, only one Taoist robe...
Jiang Wuji was present, and the fat-headed fish couldn't explain clearly, so he could only give his sister a blank look.
But the empress didn't think anything of it. She couldn't see it anyway, so what's wrong?
However, I couldn't help but admire the craftsmanship and whimsy of the palace seamstress. If it weren't for two small patches, wearing only one piece of clothing would still be very painful after being worn too much...
After a while, the empress's lazy yet solemn voice sounded.
"The Queen Mother has a simple mind. If you had not been present at the time, the Queen Mother would not have discovered the needle hidden in the saddle when the white horse was frightened. At most, she would have held the palace maid accountable afterwards."
Is she praising me? Jiang Wuji bowed and bowed: "I just discovered this by chance."
From the fat-headed fish, she learned that she did not know that the Queen Mother was also in the Imperial Garden today, so it was indeed a coincidence that she met the Queen Mother.
The empress nodded her head lightly, then gently touched her brows with her jade fingers, and sighed: "I am busy with government affairs, and I have never taken care of the affairs of the harem. I never thought that a thief would dare to harm the Queen Mother... Ha, it seems that what those old ministers said has some truth. Find a queen to take care of the harem for me."
Hearing this, Jiang Wuji's body trembled!
The fat-headed fish frowned and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not easy to talk about the harem in front of outsiders..."
"Oh? In the eyes of King Luo, Jiang Yindao is an outsider?"
"My sister, that's not what I meant..."
"What does King Luo mean?"
"..."
Jiang Wuji never expected that the Empress would make fun of himself and the fat-headed fish openly.
Unable to speak to his sister, the fat-headed fish snorted, crossed his arms, and ignored her as a CEO.
The empress's bright red lips were slightly outlined, and her eyes fell on Jiang Wuji.
"You have repeatedly performed extraordinary feats and brought back the Tianmen Tribulation Statue for me. What reward do you want?"
ask me? Jiang Wuji was slightly startled.
This kind of thing can only be said to the fat-headed fish. As a daughter, the fat-headed dragon can sit in this position for so long, so he is definitely not the kind of emperor who likes to flatter.
Coupled with the unrestrained outfit, you most likely have a temperament that doesn't like twists and turns...
So, she is testing my desire? Everyone has desires, and as long as she controls the desires of her courtiers, she can be a successful emperor.
"Being a swordsman, these are all my duties, but I do have a request."
"Oh?" The empress raised her eyebrows.
The fat-headed fish also cast a surprised look, as if to say: You are not a snob, why...
After a pause, Jiang Wuji bowed and said, "I want to understand the image of Qi Swallowing Mountains and Rivers."
Jiang Wuji was telling the truth. Since there are techniques for cultivating immortals in this world, why not learn them?
Let’s not talk about whether we can become a heavenly being. Once our strength increases, will we be able to achieve such a small goal as marrying ten wives?
However, this request made the two women frown.
The Nine Tribulations of Tianmen are huge matters and not just anyone can learn them.
Under normal circumstances, only those who have made great contributions in the military and hold important positions, such as generals guarding the border.
Only this kind of people will be given the opportunity by the Empress to comprehend the Tribulation Statue, which can be regarded as consolidating Dali's eternal destiny.
If it hadn't been for Jiang Wuji's bringing back Mountains and Seas, and Qin Moli's great efforts, Mountains and Seas, they wouldn't have had a chance unless they understood it.
Of course, except for weirdos like Jiang Wuji who can understand things at a glance.
After pondering for a moment, the empress said: "We will discuss this later. Let me ask you, do you want to be a princess?"
Jiang Wuji: "?!"
Fat-headed fish: "Sister!"
"Hey~ I'm just kidding, what are you doing to me?"
The empress waved her hands as if it was not serious, then she stopped her smile and her voice dropped a bit: "Jiang Wuji, from now on you will be the Marquis of Tingshui, with thousands of households living in the city, Fengtiansi supervising hundreds of officials, intimidating the rivers and lakes, and hoping that Marquis Tingshui can continue to serve the imperial court in the future and leave a lasting mark on Dali."
The strong wind blows and the black robes dance.
The empress raised her chin slightly, and King Luo smiled in his eyes.
Jiang Wuji bowed and bowed: "My lord, I will definitely live up to the emperor's orders!"
There are only two kinds of titles in Dali: Duke and Marquis, and there are no distinctions such as county marquis and ting hou. They only use food to distinguish the size.
Although Qianhu Hou is not a high-ranking person in the title, for Jiang Wuji, it is a huge leap in status...
First it was Yin Dao, then Ting Shui Hou.
A person has completed two major identity leaps in a few months. Do you still think he is simple... Jiang Wuji started to make up his mind.
After finishing the business, the empress stretched her body and leaned against the white jade case.
"By the way, there is something the Queen Mother asked me to tell Marquis Tingshui."
"Queen Mother?" Jiang Wuji was a little confused, and the fat-headed fish looked wary.
Empress: "Haha..."
