After the old woman went out, the old man sighed and said: "The Long family of the Dajing Dynasty is now in charge of the world. Speaking of which, Emperor Longchang was still a bright monarch when he first succeeded to the throne, and he did a lot to benefit the country. The affairs of the common people, and he has launched a large-scale recruitment of talents, and also promoted some poor families to study. Everyone is still grateful to Emperor Longchang who has just succeeded to the throne."
"Oh?" Li Dai was surprised, "Then how did it become like this?"
"Hey." The old man sighed again, and continued: "To talk about the changes in Emperor Longchang, we can only talk about the time when Concubine Mei entered the palace more than thirty years ago. That was thirty-nine years ago at Chuxia, Jingdu During the general election, Concubine Mei entered the palace as the daughter of a concubine of a county lord in Zhiyuan County. At that time, she was not only of low status, but also not outstanding in appearance. However, I don’t know whether it was due to good luck or something, but the scene of her fighting for a common man was suppressed. Emperor Longchang, who was out of the palace in disguise, saw it, and because of this, Emperor Longchang remembered the ordinary-looking Concubine Mei."
"His Majesty was twenty-nine years old at that time, which was not considered young anymore. Naturally, he didn't think highly of Concubine Mei's ordinary appearance. However, it just so happened that when Concubine Mei came to meet the saint along with a group of beautiful women, she was unexpectedly surprised. It reminded His Majesty of her and kept her."
"After leaving Concubine Mei, she was promoted steadily and her appearance became more and more beautiful. However, all the concubines and queens who wanted to frame her were suppressed. The emperor's love for Concubine Mei became more and more popular, and finally she was granted the title of "Concubine Mei". The noble concubine."
"It would be fine if it was just like this, but since Concubine Mei entered the palace, not only the concubines who framed her have fallen, but also countless princes have died inexplicably. In the end, it was found out that it was the queen who did it, and the queen was naturally deposed."
"Some people suspected that Concubine Mei was responsible for the successive deaths of the princes, but there was no evidence. The emperor also checked Concubine Mei at the beginning, but after repeated checks, they said that it had nothing to do with her. Concubine Mei was the one who emerged from the mud and remained untainted. Lian’s heart is still as kind as when we first met her.”
"As for the longer it gets, the more beautiful it is, of course because it grows. Concubine Mei herself said so."
"On the third day after Concubine Mei entered the palace, natural disasters continued in the Dajing Dynasty, and the once wise Emperor Longchang was completely obsessed with beauty and paid little attention to the affairs of the state."
"In the fifth year since Concubine Mei entered the palace, the emperor is almost her puppet. She is already acting as an agent for the court."
"However, it would be fine if she acted as an agent of the government well, but she acted as an agent of the government and enjoyed the rights of the emperor, but did not do what the emperor should do. And Emperor Longchang, as long as Concubine Mei opens her mouth, no matter how luxurious and expensive it is, Palaces are also built everywhere, just so that Concubine Mei can have a comfortable place to eat and play when she goes out to play. So many times, Concubine Mei uses these palaces once and then they are abandoned, but because they are her residence , without the approval of Emperor Longchang, no one dares to deal with those palaces at will."
"Floods, droughts, locusts, earthquakes... all kinds of disasters continue. In addition, the emperor goes to extreme lengths of luxury in order to not have a noble concubine. Where do those gold and silver treasures come from? They are not collected from the lowest level of the people."
"In the ninth year of Concubine Mei's entry into the palace, the Great Jing Dynasty has been defeated and desolated. Good officials were massacred, and their families were wiped out. Those officials who came up later had not passed the imperial examination at all. They were all big businessmen who spent money to buy Officials. This also leads to those who are still ambitious and have to either become a walleye to save their lives, resign, or wait to be killed."
"On the tenth year after Concubine Mei entered the palace, the days when Emperor Longchang exclusively doted on Concubine Mei came to an end. Under Concubine Mei's introduction, female slaves from all walks of life, including singers and dancers, came into the palace to serve His Majesty. They suddenly became the master, Longchang The emperor has completely lived a life of extravagance and extravagance, and his strong body has completely collapsed."
"In the thirteenth year after Concubine Mei entered the palace, due to oppression, the people of the Dajing Dynasty were in dire straits and could not survive at all. A riot broke out and an insurrectionary army was formed. Unfortunately, before it could take off, Concubine Mei, who was a prophet, noticed it and strangled it. In the cradle.”
"From the fourteenth year to the thirty-ninth year when Concubine Mei entered the palace, during the twenty-five years, dozens of groups of people started to kill the traitorous concubine, overthrow the rule of the ignorant emperor, and establish a new dynasty. Under the new system, no matter how scheming or planning someone is, in the end they will either be fascinated by Concubine Mei and fall in love with her, or they will be killed, and they will hardly survive."
"Even the most favored King Yongzhong was killed. He is undoubtedly a pity. He did not succumb to the charm of Concubine Mei, but he also died tragically."
"Now thirty-nine years have passed, Emperor Longchang is already sixty-eight years old, and he has already become an old man with wrinkles on his face, but Concubine Mei is still as beautiful as a twenty-eight-year-old girl. It is so abnormal, even if it was once I have called Mei Guifei the demon concubine countless times in my mouth or in my heart, and now I am really frightened. In the past, calling her the demon concubine was a way to kill her, but now after so many years, I really feel that she is a demon."
"The demon is terrifying and weird. Otherwise, not only has her appearance remained unchanged for decades, why would those heroic rebels have either been conquered by her or killed?"
“No matter how well you hide it, it’s useless, you will always be found.”
"Because of this, our Da Jing Dynasty has been in chaos for nearly half a hundred years, but the rule of the Long family has not been overthrown and has been preserved to this day. The number of refugees has reached an extremely terrifying level."
"This hopeless dynasty never knows when it will come to an end."
"In the words of Concubine Mei, after the emperor ascends to heaven, she will find someone to be the emperor. Of course, the premise is that she listens to her words."
"It's depressing to think that today's Dajing Dynasty is squeezed tightly by a witch."
Li Dai listened, and the more she heard, the more Concubine Mei became less human. Could it be that she was a demon? Or an evil cultivator?
If natural disasters have continued since Concubine Mei entered the palace, it is conceivable that Concubine Mei must have set her sights on the dragon veins of a country, but the dragon veins of mortals are so important. If you want to devour dragon veins and practice, let alone the upright monks and evil cultivators. There is no reward for doing this.
"So, to solve the problem of this troubled world, all we need to do is to solve the problem of Concubine Mei." If Concubine Mei is really not an ordinary person, and she is a person who steals the dragon vein and national luck to cultivate, Li Dai will solve her, and there will be many benefits, at least the merits It is indispensable, and Li Dai is still confident in dealing with a cultivator. If Concubine Mei is really that powerful, she will not dare to pay attention to Longmai Guoyun. Li Dai is still confident in dealing with her.
"Oh, my good granddaughter, you can't say this nonsense!" The old man started to panic again. She had said so much just now, which was her limit, and he was able to know so much thanks to his old lady. , the old woman used to be the personal maid of the Queen in the palace. When the Queen was killed, she had just left the palace to do some shopping. Before she could go back, she was stopped by the Queen's nanny, Mom, and asked her to run away as far as she could. .
But she still didn't escape the enemy's sight and was chased. She chased her to the cliff and jumped down. Then she was lucky enough to be caught by a long branch under the cliff and was not thrown directly to death. It was such a coincidence that it happened to be He was seen by him who went into the mountains to find special detoxifying herbs for his boss, and saved him, so the two of them had a fate.
During these years of following him, the old woman never went out and kept her name anonymous, so she survived to this day.
Now listening to what Li Dai said about dealing with Concubine Mei, it really scared the old man. He said quickly: "You can't talk nonsense. Concubine Mei can't discuss it in private. Besides, she also has magical abilities and is full of hostility towards her." She seems to be able to feel the person from any distance. Remember, never say anything like whether to kill or not!"
Seeing how nervous he was, Li Dai hesitated for a moment, but still refused to nod. As for what he called "good granddaughter" when he exclaimed, Li Dai automatically ignored it.
"Then you must remember this!" Although Li Dai nodded, the old man didn't seem to be reassured. His face changed and he lowered his voice and said, "Then Concubine Mei really can't afford to offend her. I think that Yong The king once recruited a fairy-like figure who could spit fire from his mouth and turn water into his hands. I heard that he was the legendary 'immortal', but even such a person fell into the hands of Concubine Mei. Even 'immortals' can't help her, so how can they talk about us ordinary people."
Li Dai's eyebrows narrowed, 'immortal'? The immortals they refer to should be the methods of monks. It turns out that when Concubine Mei started such a big battle, monks with low cultivation levels tried to deal with her, but they all seemed to have failed.
Also, to be able to stay in this place where almost everyone is mortal for a long time, it is impossible for the qualifications to be good, or like the old Taoist friend her friend Qu Shiyou asked for help, there is no hope of advancement, so she just wants to return home.
In this case, she should solve it with her own hands.
Li Dai is not a good person, but she is definitely not bad. She still has a conscience. When she can protect herself and it is easy for herself, Li Dai is still happy to save so many people by taking action.
Having made a decision in her heart, Li Dai was also very grateful to Old Man Xu who had brought her so much secret news, so she stood up directly and said goodbye before Old Man Xu said that he recognized her as his granddaughter.
The old man didn't know how to keep someone, so he immediately called his wife back. Old Madam Hua looked at Li Dai and was about to say something when she saw Li Dai take out two jade bottles and said:
"You can eat this white bottle to strengthen your body and prolong your life. One pill is enough for each of you."
"What's in this small brown bottle is for the little girl lying in the last room. She will wake up after eating it."
"Live a good life. The troubled times will end soon. Farewell!"
After the explanation, without waiting for the two elders to say anything, Li Dai directly used Daluo Yi, the space teleportation method, and disappeared in front of the two elders.
The little girl lying in the room at the end of the corridor, although she didn't know her specific identity, Li Dai could guess that the old man wanted to talk to his granddaughter several times but stopped talking, so it must be her! The little girl's injuries were fatal in the eyes of mortals. Not only was her body injured, but her soul was also damaged due to torture and pain, and she was unable to wake up. However, this was not a problem in Li Dai's opinion. In order to pay for this, The kind-hearted old man, and in return for telling so much news, Li Dai not only gave them a low-grade version of the Rejuvenation Pill that mortals could bear, but also gave them an extra small rejuvenation pill.
The Xiao Huan Dan was enough to repair all the little girl's injuries, but the soul that was shocked by the pain was not really broken and damaged, so the Xiao Huan Dan nourished her spirit and made her forget the pain, and soon will wake up.
Not to mention that, Li Dai's method of leaving was so magical that it surprised both of them and left them dumbfounded.
After reacting, the well-informed two people vaguely guessed Li Dai's identity, became excited, and immediately grabbed the brown vial and headed towards their granddaughter's residence. They gave her the elixir to see the wounds and scars on her body that could not be healed. It was repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye, and both of them were so excited that they couldn't help crying.
"Great, great, that little girl is... our granddaughter is saved."
"That's right." The old lady also wiped her tears, "The little fairy is so powerful. These troubled times, these troubled times may really be coming to an end. In this case, the Queen is alive in heaven, so it's time to rest."
The two cried for a while, and then laughed excitedly.
Not to mention what happened to the old man and his wife, Li Dai went straight out of the city. When the night darkened, Duye Sword came out and flew directly into the sky. With the sword, he headed towards the capital of the Great Jing Dynasty.
Not only because he had to deal with Concubine Mei, but also because his friend's son was also in that direction as his hair pulled him.
