Chapter 172 The second woman(1/2)
The two of them talked a lot as they walked out of the palace.
Xie Nandu asked, "Who is your Majesty?"
Now that Chen Chao's identity has been exposed, Xie Nandu is still very worried. She feels that it is not a simple matter for Chen Chao to leave the palace.
Chen Chao said, "Those things didn't happen."
What things?
The Emperor of Liang directly killed the Chen Dynasty, which stopped many people's thoughts and completely dissipated the unsettling things in the Liang Dynasty.
No.
Nothing like this happened.
Nothing happened.
Chen Chao shook his head, he had some different views on the Emperor of Liang.
Xie Nandu nodded and said, "This is also a good thing."
Chen Chao smiled and said no more.
…
…
The death of the Queen was a big event for the entire Liang Dynasty, even bigger than Wanliuhui. The Chen Dynasty's victory was diluted a lot by this incident. The monks outside the country were also happy to accept such a result. If
The whole city of God was in a state of joy at this moment. For them, this was probably the worst thing.
The people of the Divine City are very sad now and cannot celebrate.
In the candied date shop on South Street, the old shopkeeper watched his waiters hang up the white lanterns and said sadly, "You are young, so you definitely don't know those old stories about the queen back then."
Before I became the empress, or even before I became the princess, my favorite food was our candied dates. I used to come to our shop every now and then to buy a bag and take it back. Every time I came back,
The Queen would happily praise our candied dates for being delicious, but later I found out that the Queen doesn’t eat candied dates.”
At first, the waiter was listening with interest, but when he heard the last sentence, he frowned and asked curiously, "Since the Queen doesn't like to eat, what does she do with these things?"
The old shopkeeper frowned and said, "If the queen doesn't like it, it can't be because the general liked it? The general's wife liked it?"
"Actually, the queen's sister likes her, that is, the one who is still practicing outside the city... But she should be here today, right?!"
The old shopkeeper was a little sentimental.
As he spoke, he was actually very emotional.
At his age, although he is just a commoner in the capital city, he has indeed experienced many things. He was the Emperor Lingzong back then, the deposed Emperor later, and then the current Emperor.
It can be said that it has gone through three dynasties.
"But it seems that Miss Xie from the academy likes eating candied dates. She is now at the top of the literary test."
"She came to buy with the saint of Wantian Palace before, but I confiscated her money. Commander Chen is her friend..."
"What are you thinking about? That girl can't be the queen."
The old shopkeeper knocked the clerk on the head angrily and said, "Who doesn't know that Miss Xie only likes Commander Chen?!"
The young man was knocked on the head and quickly said with a smile, "That's true. The two of them are really well matched."
After hearing this, the old shopkeeper looked at the white lantern hanging in front of the shop and became sentimental again.
…
…
"Want to eat candied dates?"
The carriage passed slowly in front of the shop. Xie Nandu frowned and shook his head and said, "There are many more in the yard."
Chen Chao said, "Those dates have been stored for too long and are not very delicious."
Xie Nandu shook his head and said nothing.
Chen Chao jumped out of the carriage, but before he could reach the shop on South Street, he saw a familiar figure.
She is a young girl with a fiery passion.
Saint Zhu Xia of Wan Tian Palace.
"Chen Chao!"
She looked at Chen Chao from a distance and shouted, "I've been looking for you all day!"
Chen Chao was also a little surprised. Seeing this girl here was indeed something he didn't expect.
"Buying candied dates?"
Chen Chao looked into her eyes and found that there was some parting emotion in the girl's eyes.
Zhu Xia looked at Chen Chao and said reluctantly, "I'm leaving."
Although the death of the queen was a huge event for the Liang Dynasty, it was not the case for monks like them. Some of them might stay, but some of them would definitely leave.
For example, this saint of Wantian Palace is leaving now.
Chen Chao frowned and said, "Why don't you stay and play longer?"
Zhu Xia frowned and said distressedly, "I also want to stay, but something very important happened in the mountains. I can't stay. But I haven't eaten so many delicious things in Shendu. Wait a minute."
I bought them all and some things can’t be kept for a long time, which is really annoying!”
The girl in front of me is very cute, even if she is really angry and angry now, she is still so cute.
"I wanted to say goodbye to you and Sister Xie before the Wanliu Club was over, but I couldn't find you there, and I couldn't find you when I returned to the academy. Where did you go?"
Zhu Xia frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy.
Of course Chen Chao couldn't tell her the truth. After thinking about it, he said, "She is in the carriage."
Only then did Zhu Xia notice that there was a carriage parked there.
When she walked over, Xie Nandu happened to walk out of the carriage.
The two of them stood by the carriage. Zhu Xia took Xie Nandu's hand and said with some disappointment, "Sister Xie, I'm leaving."
Xie Nandu looked at the little girl, smiled and said, "Come to Shendu again in the future."
Zhu Xia pouted and said, "Master said there are big things to do on this trip back to the mountain, and I guess I won't be able to come in a short time, but I really can't bear to leave you."
As a monk from outside the country, Zhu Xia is really different from other monks. After she came to Shendu, she really fell in love with everything here, especially the food in Shendu, which aroused her spirit.
.
Can not resist.
Xie Nandu said softly, "We will meet if we are destined. Since we are leaving, buy some more things and go. I will accompany you."
Zhu Xia immediately became excited after hearing this. She waved to Chen Chao, extremely happy.
…
…
In the small pavilion in the middle of the lake, the dean is playing chess with an old man from Wantian Palace.
Nowadays, the capital of the gods seems to be at peace, but in fact the real big shots are staring at the imperial city, but these two people don't seem to care and are still playing chess.
"Brother Taoist, after this farewell, can we see you again?"
The dean put down a chess piece and felt a little emotional.
The old man sighed, "If I can't see you, I can't see you. Why should I come to the academy to see you if I don't think about my life approaching?"
The dean said, "Brother Taoist's words really make people feel a little sad."
Monk Wangyou is already the most powerful being in the world, but even such a figure only has a lifespan of a few hundred years. In the end, he will always turn into dust.
The old man has been practicing cultivation for a long time, and now he is coming to the end of his life.
"I'm leaving soon. There are some things I really want to ask before I leave."
The old man stared at the dean, was silent for a long time, and said solemnly, "She has been gone for many years, but before she left, she still wanted a result, or an answer."
The dean sighed, frowned slightly for the first time, shook his head and said, "Since he is dead and the answer is no longer available to him no matter what, what else can he do with it?"
When talking about this, the dean seemed to remember stories from many years ago, and he became a little bit vicissitudes of life.
The old man sighed with emotion, "This pair of emperors and empresses from the Liang Dynasty can really be regarded as role models. They met as young people and then walked side by side to where they are now. Now that one of them has left, the other one will probably be secretly sad for many years."
The dean twitched his lips, "Brother Taoist, there is no need to criticize me so much..."
The old man smiled and said, "I just asked for an answer, but you, an old man, never said anything. Do you really want me to be unable to say anything when I go underground?"
"You know her temperament. No matter what, she always has an answer, even if the answer is not that good."
The old man looked at the dean, with some determination in his eyes at this moment, "If you don't give me this answer, I will definitely tear down the academy for you tonight."
His words were a naked threat, but the dean didn't care. He just said a little sadly, "Now, I really don't want to fight Brother Dao. It's really hard to accept that the last meeting ended like this."
Saying this, he suddenly dropped a piece on the chessboard and said with a smile, "Brother Taoist, you lost this game."
