The figure arrived at the back door and looked around defensively. After making sure that no one had any ideas, he cautiously opened the door and quietly walked out. No one knew his identity or what he wanted to do.
But the figure was obviously a woman. The person sneaked outside the spiritual garden and walked straight to the hidden garden behind the spiritual garden.
But seeing her stop, there was still a pretty woman under the dim moonlight. It was the girl who was serving Ling'er but was dominated by Zoya. She looked around, and suddenly she took out something from her sleeve.
It turned out to be a small paper ball. I put my finger to my mouth and heard a whistle.
A big snake seemed to appear out of thin air on the top of the tree. The snake's head pointed downwards towards her.
"This is something for Miss Zoya, go give it to her quickly."
The snake's head was downward, but the woman was not afraid. Instead, she stepped forward and stroked the snake's head with a pitiful look. She raised her hand and let the beating snake kiss her little hand a few times. He seemed to be very friendly to her and was being mean.
The woman patted the snake's head a few times and spoke to the snake. She put the small paper ball in her hand and dragged it. The snake nodded as if it could understand human words, and rolled up the paper ball with its tongue.
. Turn around and climb up the tree, and instantly disappear again. It turns out that there is a hollow in the middle of the tree pole.
No wonder. After watching the snake leave, the woman turned around and walked back to the road.
In the Ling'er Garden, the greenness on Ling'er's face had gradually faded away. The doctor kept pricking her acupuncture points with silver needles. The whole room was filled with smoke, and it was obvious that she was also smoking herbs. The winter plum and autumn chrysanthemum were also unblinking.
Stand next to it.
That day, Chen Feng went to court in the morning. As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw the officials gathered together, discussing something in low voices. When they saw him coming, they were obviously so taboo that they shut up and stopped talking.
"Go to court," as Eunuch Qin shouted, everyone returned to their seats.
"If you have the right to submit a memorial, if you don't have the right to retreat," Eunuch Qin shouted again, and Chen Feng sat in the center of the hall with a majestic look.
"I have a copy to report," the ministers had something to say at that time, but they were obviously shy about their identities. They looked at each other, and there was an old man who came out of the procession. It was Dai Guolao, who was as famous as Mei Guolao.
"Play," seeing that he had something to say, Chen Feng raised his eyebrows lightly. He had obviously guessed what they would say. He said calmly and listened to his next memorial.
"Back to the king, the disaster in the south has not slowed down but has become more and more serious. In the past, the two brothers and sisters of Zoya could save any disaster. This time..."
Dai Guolao said respectfully, as if he was using the disaster in the south as an excuse.
"What happened this time? Didn't I already have the brothers and sisters working together to govern? Is there any problem?"
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, the smile on Chen Feng's face became even wider. Of course, it was not intentional, but with a sneer. In fact, he had read the memorials these days. Most people took advantage of this disaster.
The target was Ling'er.
What kind of strange things are coming from the sky? There has never been such a disaster before. It's just because of the arrival of strange things, the coming of God's power or something like that.
"I have watched the sky yesterday night. The five stars in the sky converge and the white tiger fills the moon. This is a sign of great misfortune. The white tiger star also symbolizes a woman in trouble. Our snake world has been peaceful for hundreds of years, but now there is another disaster. Instead of suppressing the disaster, it has
It has also spread to the surrounding towns, with the momentum that a single spark can start a prairie fire. In the past, when the snake world was at peace, such a situation would never happen, but now it has. Ever since Miss Long arrived,..."
Dai Lao was not afraid of Chen Feng's authority at all and spoke directly. The target of the attack was very clear, he was talking about Ling'er.
"Okay, I know what you want to say. I don't believe it at all. I have the ability to call the wind and rain, so how can I be afraid of it? What about the stars meeting and the white tiger filling the moon? In the final analysis, it's for Miss Long, right?"
After hearing what he said, Chen Feng's face darkened. He stood up and interrupted his next words. It was obvious that he didn't listen to his persuasion. Gan Cai pointed out what he meant directly.
"yes,"
After hearing his master's question, Mr. Dai bravely explained.
"Miss Long is just an ordinary mortal, does she have such great power when she comes? Ridiculous, don't you think this excuse is terrible? I have made up my mind, and it is a must to canonize Miss Long as queen. Because the hairpin belongs to all of you.
The minister gave it to me to choose the Snake Queen for me. Now I made the right choice and I brought it back, but you are making excuses again."
Seeing Mr. Dai's clear explanation, the coldness on Chen Feng's face became even greater. He looked at them coldly as he spoke, and then asked questions. He was thinking about the choice of hairpin, the importance of Ling'er to him, and the palpitations he felt when they met for the first time.
I can no longer control the anger in my heart.
He stood up angrily, looked down at the old man and scolded him angrily. He also used the excuses he made to scold the old man. Of course, after he finished speaking, His Highness was silent. Obviously his words made sense. This hairpin is indeed the snake world. When the snake kings took over,
A hairpin specially set for him by the ministers.
"Your Majesty, veteran,"
When Dai Guolao was scolded like this, he didn't know what to say at that time. Everyone around him lowered his head, of course, fearing the master's wrath. Now that he was in the limelight, the frightened old man gave him a frightened look and lowered his head.
Dare to speak out.
"Okay, I have decided on Miss Long's matter. Originally, I was not going to issue the edict until the day she wakes up, but since you have been clamoring for persecution, well, I will issue the edict now, and Xiao Qinzi will read out the edict."
Seeing that everyone was like this, Chen Feng's face became even more gloomy. Well, since you guys have been so busy all day, let's use Ling'er as a speech about state affairs. Well, he will make a decree today. He wants to see if they are good at it.
say what.
"Yes, Wang. It is destined to be carried by heaven. Wang Shangzhao said,..."
What he actually read was the edict he had drawn up to confer Ling'er as his queen. When those people heard it, they did not refute it. Instead, their faces showed helplessness and embarrassment. They lowered their heads and discussed in lowered voices.
"Okay, do you have any questions?"
But although they discussed it, they did not dare to say anything else. Because under the imperial edict, no matter who refutes it, they are disobeying the imperial edict on the spot. They are well aware of the crime of resisting the edict.
After listening to Eunuch Qin's recitation, the ministers' faces showed embarrassment and they clearly dared to be angry but dare not speak. The smile on Chen Feng's face became even bigger. He waved Eunuch Qin back to his seat, then looked at them seriously and asked.
"this,"
Everyone listened to his low question and couldn't say anything else. They obviously raised their heads and glanced at him, but they didn't dare to refute on the spot.
"In this case, it's decided. I don't believe in evil spirits by nature. What's more, we are all practitioners. Since we can fight against heaven and earth, why are we still so conservative? Since Miss Long has been named the queen, she will be the snake in the future.
The queen is your mistress, so in the future, disrespect for her will be equated with disrespect for me. Everyone should be very aware of this crime. The situation in the south is indeed a bit tricky, but I have sent
I rushed to the south with Mo Lei overnight, I believe there will be news soon..."
Seeing that no one said a word, Chen Feng even forced himself to speak. He announced Ling'er's identity on the spot and cleverly turned the whole matter into a state matter.
Now, at court, although all the officials disagreed and were unconvinced, they did not dare to say anything after the imperial edict was issued. However, someone suddenly thought of a way.
"Dai Lao, Dai Lao, please wait for me, please wait for me,"
Looking at the people leaving one after another, several people gathered together and murmured in low voices for a long time. Suddenly they caught up with Dai Lao, who was alone in front of him and helplessly walked back.
"Oh, what's the matter?"
In fact, they started to discuss state affairs, and later they talked about how to deal with Elder Mei. But they were severely rejected by Chen Feng at that time, and they lowered their heads again and did not dare to mention it again.
As soon as he came to court, he was even more worried. After everyone had almost left, he slowly stomped outside in despair. Not long after he walked out, he was chased by several people. Although he didn't want to pay attention to what these people said, he still turned around.
He turned around and asked them angrily.
"It's like this, Mr. Dai. We all know that you and Mr. Mei are close friends. But now the king doesn't believe our persuasion at all, and decrees to make that human woman his queen. This is already inconsistent with etiquette and law. If it continues like this, the snake world will be doomed.
There will be chaos. So the ministers thought of a way to at least prevent the king from making that human woman his queen."
The man saw that he was standing firm, and he gave some color to the people behind him. He followed forward, whispered to Mr. Dai, and then looked at the old man expectantly.
"This, okay, you can tell me."
Hearing him talk about the old man's sadness, the old man was a little helpless. However, he suppressed his discomfort and waited for what he would say next.
"The king's imperial edict has been issued. If we want to refute it again, it is tantamount to resisting the edict. But hasn't it not yet come to the ceremony of enthroning the queen? So we thought of a way in private. Take a look, Mr. Guo..."
The man looked at the old man flatteringly and whispered to the old man the solution they had discussed in private.
"You, you, the king attaches so much importance to that woman. Although we are very reluctant, it is useless for everyone to refute. But the king ordered you to do this. If the woman is frightened, the king's personality, do you think he will let you go?
?”
After hearing what the man said, Dai Guolao was obviously shocked. He looked at them sideways and reminded them, asking questions, obviously not agreeing with their method.
"Lao Guo, having said that, we really have no other way, right? Of course, this idea must be played by the king, right? As long as he is involved, he can't punish us even if he blames us."
The man saw the old man's obvious disapproval. Although he was helpless, he still boldly asked and spoke to him.
"Well, do you want to carry out your plan during the king's recent molting period?"
Hearing him ask this, the old man was obviously a little speechless. But he frowned and quickly understood their intention and asked.
"Yes, Wang, we don't dare to confront each other, but that human woman..."
The old man seemed to understand so well, so the man said it appropriately. When he walked in, he put his hands over his mouth and whispered to the old man.
"Well, it seems that's the only way to do it? Just in case..."
After listening to his method, the old man still frowned, but he still nodded in agreement, but he was obviously still very taboo.
"Sir, if there is a real possibility, it means that human women are not suitable for our snake world, right? That is, after she becomes a snake, sooner or later she will know the truth. If there is a real possibility, it means that she is not suitable for us at all.
A king who is unworthy of our heroes and gods..."
The old man was helpless and whispered about the old man's precautions and embarrassment. He once again expressed his thoughts.
"Yes, but don't make it so obvious. Otherwise, none of us can afford it if we don't anger the king." The old man listened to what he said, thought for a moment, nodded, warned him again, turned around and left slowly.
