Chapter 72 Temptation (5400)(3/3)
The eunuch serving in the palace left in response, and returned hurriedly a quarter of an hour later, saying:
"Your Majesty is discussing matters with the princes, but this servant has not been able to see your Majesty."
Concubine Chen's heart sank: "Do you know what it is?"
Now is a turbulent and sensitive period, and she is extremely concerned about political affairs.
The eunuch said:
"I heard from the father-in-law of Anshen Temple that just now Cai Jianzheng sent Warlock Si Tianjian to spread the word to the palace, saying that the southern demon was angry with the bullfight, and the luck was overturned. The southern demon had taken back the Hundred Thousand Mountains and rebuilt the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons."
The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons...... Concubine Chen suddenly remembered the existence of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, and her charming face lit up with joy:
"Is it the demon clan that formed an alliance with the imperial court?"
The eunuch nodded.
"Okay, okay..."
Concubine Chen smiled broadly, looked at Lin'an, and said, "His Majesty also said a while ago that if the Southern Demon cannot succeed, the plan to contain Buddhism will be difficult to realize. The situation in the Central Plains is worrying."
Lin'an echoed with a smile: "Now it seems that the emperor's brother's worries will not come true."
Mrs. Chen was ecstatic:
"God bless you, God bless your majesty."
After waiting for another half an hour, Emperor Yongxing came belatedly, smiling and in a very good mood.
Concubine Chen, who was already half full, stood up with a smile:
"We are warming up wine and food for His Majesty."
He immediately ordered the palace maid to bring the wine and food.
Emperor Yongxing smiled and said:
"It's worth having a few drinks today. Lin'an, you can also have a few drinks with me."
He patted his sister on the shoulder, showing that he valued Lin'an very much.
Seeing this, Mrs. Chen frowned slightly and said tentatively:
"Your Majesty, I heard that something happened in southern Xinjiang?"
Emperor Yongxing smiled and said: "Speaking of which, Nan Yao was able to recapture the Hundred Thousand Mountains and contain the Buddhist sect, and Xu Yinluo took the greatest credit. If he hadn't taken the lead, it would not have been that easy for the Nan Yao to recapture the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
Lin'an's eyes lit up.
It's him... Concubine Chen had a complicated mood. She glanced at her radiant daughter and felt a little embarrassed.

Tianzong.
Fairy mountains stand tall, auspicious clouds cover the sky, and the sounds of apes and cranes can be heard melodiously.
There are many palaces, hidden among the clouds, mist and mountains and forests. From time to time, there are empty and melodious bells ringing from this paradise-like fairy palace.
Above the sea of clouds, a tall and magnificent beast lowered its head.
It looked down at the Fairy Mountain for a moment and then walked out from the sea of clouds.
Its body is like a deer, covered with snow-white scales, with a pair of antlers, horse hooves and a snake tail on its head.
A pair of vertical pupils as blue as the sea.
