Xian Xian

Chapter 42: Morimoto

Outside the Xianluo Gate of Shangyang Palace, there is already a sea of people at this moment. The people heard that the monsters were to be publicly executed today, and they rushed to pass on the chanting, dragging their families to their mouths, and crowding in front of the palace gates.

Below the city gate were many people watching and lively. The emperor and his officials stood on the tower. The right side of the city gate was covered with clouds and obstacles. After that, many women with high buns, crescent eyebrows and gorgeous costumes could be seen vaguely.

Pei Chuyue followed his family into the palace today. Pei’s family was a frequent visitor to the palace. As soon as Pei Chuyue entered Shangyang Palace, she ran to Li Changle and talked to Li Changle lively. Now, Pei Chuyue covered her face with a ball fan, and whispered to Li Changle: “Princess, what is this going to do?”

Li Changle quickly glanced at the queen in front of him, lowered his voice, and quietly replied: “I heard that this is going to kill the monster in public, so as to impress you.”

Pei Chuyue frowned, and covered her nose with a fan in disgust: “It’s disgusting. The strange bird was caught in our house, and the courtyard wall of the house has not been repaired now. My mother is not allowed to let me come close. Who wants to watch that one? How did the strange bird die? Killed in jail? It’s all right? Why? Drag it out?”

Li Changle shook his head and said, “Who knows. Some people say that this can strengthen the country, so my father agreed?. Let me say that hunting is more prestigious? Can I go out to play, not better than these fights and kills? Alas, I don’t know how long it will be delayed. The sun is so good that my face is blushing.”

When Pei Chuyue heard that Li Changle covered the sun with a ball fan, she smiled and said, “Why, princess, even if you are tanned? She is also the most beautiful woman in Luoyang. I will become my sister-in-law, so you can teach me more. Beauty secrets!”

Li Changle heard her cheeks reddening, she was angry? Pei Chuyue glanced, stretched out her hand to scratch Pei Chuyue’s itching: “Let you make fun of me!”

Pei Chuyue didn’t feel itching, and quickly avoided, and the two of them laughed and huddled together. The surrounding women were accidentally hit. They were unhappy at first. When they saw that it was Princess Guangning and the youngest daughter of Pei’s family, they immediately changed their smiles and said, “You guys, it’s really troublesome.”

Li Changle and Pei Chuyue were fighting, and the female officer next to Tianhou came over and gave Li Changle a stern look, and said, “Princess, the ceremony is about to begin? Please be quiet.”

Li Changle glanced forward and saw her mother’s step swaying slightly by her side. She retracted her hand angrily and said, “I know?”

After being beaten by the queen, Li Changle had nothing to do, and suddenly felt very boring. At this time, there was movement from below, and Li Changle looked down and saw a vermilion figure appearing in the square from a distance. The two teams of Yulin army pulled the rope together and pulled a huge and weird bird into a bow shape. The Rakshasa bird could not bear the humiliation.

The Rakshasa bird’s voice was sharp and hoarse, like a monster in the cemetery, and it sounded terrifying. The emperor and the courtiers are okay, but many of the female servants pale in fright. They avoided their eyes and stepped back from the handrail, not wanting to see the situation below. These ladies are so accustomed to being pampered, they can’t even see the blood of killing chickens. What kind of monsters are they talking about? They frowned, whispered, and looked very uncomfortable.

Pei Chuyue’s face turned pale, and the maid of the Pei family hurriedly covered Pei Chuyue’s eyes with a fan, for fear that these unclean things might get dirty? Miss’s eyes. Li Changle was also surrounded by the palace people. She didn’t dare to look at it, but for some reason, Li Changle couldn’t help looking through the gap to the downstairs of the city. On the huge open space between the two gates of Xianluomen, the lady in red robed slowly drew a bow, aiming at the monster.

Raksha Bird might know that he was going to die, and fought back frantically, screaming sorrowfully. The Raksha bird suddenly struggled violently, and flew upwards with all his strength, trying to break free from the restraint of the rope. The Yulin Army, who was controlling the rope, was led by this strong force and rushed forward uncontrollably, and many others fell to the ground out of control. The commander of the Habayashi army shouted ‘suppress” and ‘suppress”, but the results were minimal. The tall Habayashi army kept slipping on the ground, and it seemed that he could no longer control it.

Up and down the tower? There was a panic together, and many guards gathered in front of the emperor with a scream, and there was even a scream from the female family. The people under the city gate were in constant commotion, and the cry of children came from several directions. Pei Chuyue cried out with a cry, and tried to hold Li Changle’s hand. The court ladies were also busy protecting Li Changle: “Be careful, princess!”

In the panic, there was a faint sound of an arrow breaking through the air. Li Changle turned his head in the chaos, and saw an arrow carrying a white gust of wind, snorting through the chest of the Rakshasa bird. The Rakshasa bird fell sharply, crying bitterly, and convulsed on the ground. It looked terrifying. Li Chaoge shot another arrow, flutteringly at the head of the Rakshasa bird. Raksha Bird’s mind was pierced by an arrow, and soon stopped moving.

The panic hadn’t dissipated from the crowd, and saw the huge corpse of the strange bird lying on the ground, the gray-black feathers condensed with blood and mud, it looked so oozing. The arrow inserted into the Rakshasa bird slowly caught fire, and the bright fire light spread along the feathers, instantly covering the Rakshasa bird’s body. The flames crackled, and bursts of black energy escaped from the Rakshasa bird, but none of them could escape the powerful fire. The black energy was entangled by the fire, and soon vanished.

The people haven’t realized what happened? The corpse on the ground disappeared, replaced by the smell of scorching fire. In ancient times, mankind relied on flames to protect themselves. Until now, man’s instinct carries the worship and trust of fire. That Rakshasa bird was so cruel and terrifying, but in the raging fire of Li Chaoge, even a cup of tea could not stand it.

Downstairs? There was a moment of silence, and suddenly there was a huge cheer. The people shouted and shouted, faintly mixed with long live. More and more people shouted long live, and finally they converged into layers of earth-shaking noises: “God bless Tang, long live the saint.”

Li Chaoge, the main messenger of all this, just put the bow and arrow in the tray, straightened his sleeves, and walked towards the city in a leisurely manner. It seems to her that all this just now was just smooth, and even a little boring. The people behind him were frantic, and Li Chaoge didn’t even look back.

Li Chaoge was wrong? He walked up to the tower. The Queen of Heaven had already walked over with the female relatives. Li Chaoge met the Emperor and Queen of Heaven, bowing and saluting: “See Saint, Queen of Heaven.”

The Queen was all smiles, and even the emperor’s eyebrows stretched out, revealing the long-lost invigorating color. These days the emperor suffers from head sickness. It has been a long time since he laughed so happily as he does now?.

“Okay, okay, okay.” The emperor said three good words in a row, and he was a little incoherent with joy, and asked, “Chaoge, you did a great job?. This time, catching monsters is all your credit, you think. What do you want? A reward?”

When there are so many people, Li Chaoge naturally wants to mean something and humblely said: “It is the righteousness of every Datang citizen to cast down demons and eliminate demons and defend the country. It is my honor to be able to share worries between the saints and the queens of the Tang Dynasty. , No reward needed.”

The emperor laughed and said to the ministers and prime ministers around him: “It is my luck to have a woman like this. It is a great Tang’s luck to have a princess like this.”

Pei Xiang laughed with the other Zaifu, followed by a sentence or two of compliments. The emperor was in high spirits. He had already thought about rewards, waved his hand, and said, “Chaoge has just returned to Beijing, and many things have not been prepared yet. The mansion in Chengfufang will be given to you as a princess mansion, right? .”

Past life? Her princess mansion is also here, just a few years later than now. Li Chaoge was not surprised, bowed his head and said, “Thank you, saint.”

The emperor talked about merits and rewards in the front, and there was a little restlessness among the female family members in the rear. Pei Chuyue frowned and couldn’t help but turn around and said to Li Changle: “But, this is clearly for you…”

When Madam Pei heard what Pei Chuyue said, she immediately glared at Pei Chuyue and motioned her not to speak. Pei Chuyue was reluctant to shut up. Li Changle smiled? She laughed and said in a low voice, “It’s all right, it’s all my family, and it’s the same for everyone.”

Li Chaoge is not in the capital, so naturally no one in the palace prepares her things. On the contrary, Li Changle is the most favored little princess in the palace. Since she was ten years old, the Ministry of Industry has been building her princess mansion one after another. The mansion in Chengfufang occupies a vast area and is very expensive. Inside, there are all kinds of pavilions, pavilions, and garden verandas. Everyone agrees that this is Li Changle’s future princess mansion.

Originally, the queen and the emperor had also planned this way. But now that Li Chaoge is back, the emperor thinks of the order of his childhood, so he first gave the princess mansion to Li Chaoge, and Li Changle will repair it again.

Many people on the scene understood the original destination of the mansion. After the emperor finished speaking, although everyone on the court was smiling, the atmosphere was a little stagnant. In the quiet, the cheers from the downstairs of the city were especially obvious. The emperor and the officials turned around and looked at the people downstairs together.

The demon-killing ceremony was over, but almost no people left. They all gathered under the city gate to feel the remaining warmth of the fire. Some people even gathered up the soil on the ground and called out “Heavenly miracle.”

The people have never seen this kind of magical powers. The Rakshasa bird was panicked some time ago, but now it has been burnt to death. It can be said to be hatred and exciting.

Tian Hou has never seen the people so fanatical. In the past few years, there have been grand celebrations in the palace, and even a huge Buddha lamp was launched on the Spring Festival. But there has never been such a strong response.

Also, no matter how realistic the painting is, how can a Buddha statue compare to a real one? What about the “miracles” in your eyes?

Tianhou’s eyes moved. She looked at the emperor and said with a smile: “Sage, Chaoge has reached the age of declining. After giving the mansion, it is time to speed up the production of the princess mansion plaque. I think the two words An Ding are too weak. There is a suspicion of being in peace. What’s more, Zhaoge used this title before he was lost, and now he has finally found it back, and it is time to change to a more auspicious one?.”

Li Chaoge had been calm and unhurried before, and was quite a fan of humiliation and humiliation. Hearing this, her pupils moved slightly, and she couldn’t help but look up to the queen.

Change the title? This has never happened in a previous life. What do you want to do?

Not only was Li Chaoge surprised, others were also surprised. The emperor came to be interested, and asked: “According to the Queen of Heaven, what should be changed?”

“When she was a child, she was lost because of monsters, but when she came back, she was able to kill the monsters by herself. With such a fate, when she takes a louder title, she can stop the monsters. And this year is the first year of Chaoge’s return. It’s called Sheng Yuan.”

“Sheng Yuan.” The emperor whispered these two words, and said with his palm, “Good name, in comparison?, An Ding is indeed a little bit angry? In the future, let’s change it to this.”

Princess Sheng Yuan… The prime ministers around the emperor did not move. They looked at each other, seeing from each other’s eyes? They got the answer.

Sheng Yuan, Sheng Shi? In the first year, the Queen said with a big tone.

Li Chaoge was stunned for a moment? The female officer next to her quietly pulled her sleeves, and Li Chaoge reacted and hurriedly saluted: “Thank you saint, thank God.”

The Queen smiled kindly, handed Li Chaoge up, and said warmly: “Get up quickly. From now on, you must be safe, so that you can live up to the saint’s painstaking efforts.”

Li Chaoge was pulled by the Queen stiffly. With standard smiles, the surrounding courtiers and wives came forward to congratulate: “Congratulations to Princess Sheng Yuan.”

Li Chaoge nodded one by one, she forcibly endured the discomfort of being touched, and slowly figured in her heart that she also worked for the queen in her previous life, but never changed her title. Why? This life? The Queen suddenly remembered to change her title?

The enthusiasm under the city is still unabated, and Li Chaoge suddenly sees the cheers from below. She returned to Luoyang two years earlier than her previous life, and entered the court two years earlier than her previous life. In her previous life, when she came back, the queen had become a queen mother, with great power in her hands, holding the emperor to make the princes, and her ambition to become emperor was no longer concealed. However, this time, Emperor Li Ze is still alive and well. The Queen is currently just a queen, and his mentality is naturally different from that of later generations.

Therefore, the divas changed her title not to praise Li Chaoge, but to build momentum for herself. Today’s execution ceremony allowed Tian Hou to see the huge folk reputation behind Killing the Demon, so Tian Hou moved his mind and wanted to use Li Chaoge to accumulate strength for himself to claim the emperor.

After all, only those who win the hearts of the people can win the world. The Queen of Heaven is now not lacking in ruling power and influence in officialdom. What she lacks is the manpower and reasons to change her regime and become self-reliant.

Datang has established a country for sixty years, and it is far from easy to change to an emperor.

After Li Chaoge wanted to understand, a kind of intuition came into being. She knows that from now on, the experience of the previous life is no longer useful, because this time, she will embark on a completely different path.

A more ostentatious, more arrogant, but more attractive way.

Pei Ji’an stood in the crowd, staring far at Li Chaoge, who was surrounded by the crowd in front of him. The friends around him lowered their voices and said to Pei Ji’an: “The saint and the queen are too pampered with stability…Princess Shengyuan?. It is the man who gave the mansion and changed the title, and the treatment has far exceeded that of the Princess Guangning. Anyway, Guangning It is the daughter who is raised by their side. How can they be so partial?”

Li Changle’s friend’s words were quite injustice. When Li Chaoge came back, he was hunting and killing demons. It was difficult for them to have a good impression of Li Chaoge, but they saw Li Changle from an early age. No wonder he was so angry.

Pei Ji’an didn’t say anything, but said: “It’s just a mansion, the saint and the queen? Give it to whoever wants to give it. Anyway, you won’t lose Guangning.”

My friend “Huh”? With a cry, I looked back at Pei Ji’an: “What’s the matter with you, why are you still helping her to speak? Guangning is your fiancee, and your little wife was robbed of the princess mansion, so you don’t want to vent her anger. , And in turn gain others’ prestige?”

“Speak carefully.” Pei Ji’an sank his face slightly, and said, “Princess Sheng Yuan is also a princess. Don’t be presumptuous.”

My friend was angry? He fell on his back. It was for? Pei Ji’an specially reminded him, but in the end, Pei Ji’an taught him in turn! My friend threw down his sleeve angrily, and said: “Why have you become inexplicable lately? Anyway, I’m finished? You don’t care, I’m leaving.”

My friend turned around and left after speaking?. Pei Ji’an knew that he should leave too. He took two steps and couldn’t help turning his head. He saw Li Chaoge standing in the crowd, wearing a bright red dress, just like her, no matter where he was, it was always the strongest stroke.

Li Chaoge’s previous life? Because the town demon division suffered? A lot of suffering, very thankless. She walked so **** that road, Pei Ji’an thought that after being reborn, she would not go the same way again.

It was clearly a road that knew from the beginning that it was difficult to die well. She is already a princess? In this life? She comes back early, she will have glory and wealth, parental affection, prestige and reputation. Why on earth is she going to repeat the same old track?

Pei Ji’an didn’t understand, but he knew in his heart that this was Li Chaoge. Others don’t hit the south wall and don’t look back, and Li Chaoge won’t look back even if he hits his head and bleeds blood. He hated everything about her, but admired her courage.

She is always like this, as long as she has what she wants, no matter how many obstacles there are, she can’t stop her. Past life? Pei Ji’an is also one of them, and naturally understands how terrible her likes are.

Pei Ji’an suddenly gave birth to an indescribable feeling. He and Li Changle are married, and Li Chaoge has changed the title. Does this mean that the fate of the previous life has changed? Those entanglements that hurt both sides, those **** struggles, will they also disappear?

Pei Ji’an didn’t know what he should think. Rebirth I? She is still ambitious and still swaggering through the market. She walked step by step towards where she wanted to go, and there would be no more Pei Ji’an in that place?

Pei Ji’an told herself that this was a good thing. But at this moment, he left with his back to Li Chaoge. For some reason, he always felt that it was not a taste.
