~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I walked out of Cining Palace with the already heavy bag of mustard seeds, I had a premonition that E Niang was about to leave. I murmured the strange words that E Niang had just told him: "About three hundred years later.
, in the autumn of the year of the Beijing Olympics, go to Yuncheng University to find me."
The next day, news came that the Queen had passed away. I could hardly believe it! I thought for a time that the Queen was just leaving the palace! The moment I rushed into Cining Palace, I saw the body of the Queen.
I have to believe the fact that Huang'e Niang has passed away! But I still have a premonition in the dark. Since Huang'e Niang said that I can meet her again in three hundred years, then I must live until three hundred years later!
"She...she's dead?!" A trembling voice sounded behind my ears, "I was a step too late after all..."
The person who came was my master Jingyi. At that moment, I had already lost my mind. Like a crazy beast, I punched his face that could not leave any mark in two hundred years. "Are you satisfied now?!
"If Huang Ama hadn't died, how could Huang Aniang be so heartbroken?! It's all his fault!! But he is my master, the master who saved my life, and has taught me for more than ten years.
The master of solving doubts!!
Master Jingyi did not hide, and received a punch from me. There were tears in his eyes. I had never seen him shed tears since I was a child. Because of those tears, I half-forgave him.
After beating him away, I still had to find him after all, but it was already forty years later. Forty years later, I only went to find him when I had nothing to worry about.
Forty years later, Yun Mo passed away. She and I had been married for forty years without any children. Later, the emperor's brother adopted his fourth son, Hongzao, as his heir to me.
The imperial brother's reign was Qianyuan and his temple was named Sejong. He died after reigning for twenty-three years. He secretly appointed two princes in his life. The first was Hongdan, the legitimate son of the queen's sister-in-law. Unfortunately, Hongdan died three years after his marriage.
When he died young, the emperor's brother named him Prince Jingxian; the second was Hongzhi, the son of the late concubine Zhuge and the adopted son of Concubine Wen (Concubine Wen). Unfortunately, this child was even worse than Hongdan.
He died at the age of thirteen. The emperor's brother took out the imperial edict that was placed behind the Zhengda Guangming Palace and named Hongzhi the Prince Jinghui. I know that the emperor's brother didn't just have two sons, but also two wives! Hongdan
He died young. His sister-in-law, Guarjia, was heartbroken and disappeared a year later. Hongzhi died, and Lutong's sister-in-law also died in depression. From then on, nothing was left behind in the Zhengda Guangming Palace.
The Seventeenth Brother and the Seventeenth Sister-in-law got their wish and grew old together. They became a pair praised by everyone.
The emperor's brother had many wives and concubines in his life, and had countless children, almost comparable to the emperor's Ama, but he was not half as happy and loving as the seventeenth brother and his seventeenth sister-in-law.
The imperial brother did not dare to pamper the person he really loved so much, so he could only posthumously make her the queen after her death. It was only after Lu Tong's sister-in-law passed away that I realized that she was the one he loved most! Lu Tong
His sister-in-law only gave birth to a daughter. In order to prevent her from being helpless in her later years, the emperor's brother used chronic poison to quietly kill Hongzhi's biological mother, Zhugeshi. It was a pity that Lutong's sister-in-law died before him.
.
Since then, the emperor's brother seemed to have given up on himself more and more, and he had a large harem, more and more concubines, and many heirs. Until his death, the youngest son Hongmin, the fifteenth son, was still in his infancy.
Neither Brother Seventeen nor I participated in the struggle for the throne between the emperor's brothers, although I knew early on that the winner must be him - Hong Yi, the seventh son of the emperor, who had not been paid attention to or favored by the emperor since he was a child.
He was very good at forbearing and had a very good relationship with the emperor's favorite son Hongzhi. He showed filial piety and friendship in his early years. It was only in his later years that he gradually showed his political talents.
The imperial brother became more and more disgusted with the eldest son Hongming who pursued the throne diligently. The second son Hongxian was mediocre and Hongdan had passed away. The fourth son Hong was adopted by me early. The fifth son Hongyan was adopted by the seventeenth brother. The sixth son Hongzhi died in infancy.
, only the seventh son, Hong Yi, was older and quite impressive. The emperor's brother chose him to inherit the throne out of reason.
Hong Yi's biological mother was originally the Liu family, the concubine of the emperor's brother's vassal. She was never favored, and the emperor's brother only made her an honorable person after he ascended the throne. It is only the mother who is more important than the son. After Hong Dan and Hong Zhi died successively, Hong Yi gradually
After entering the sight of the emperor's brother, Liu Guiren was able to be named Jing's concubine, later promoted to Jing's concubine, and even later became the empress dowager. However, Liu Jing's concubine was only born in the Han army after all, which was very disgraceful. Hong Yi specially recognized his biological mother.
The deceased uncle Aling'a became Ama, so the Liu family became the Niu Hulu family and became the sister of the Seventeenth Sister-in-law.
After Hongyi ascended the throne, I already wanted to leave the secular world. Only because I couldn't let go of my wife Yun Mo, I stayed for many more years. Over these many years, my cultivation level gradually reached the peak stage from the early stage of Jin Dan, and I consolidated my cultivation level.
Because of this, I am gradually on the verge of a breakthrough. Although I have a whole mustard bag of thousand-year-old snow lotus, Ganoderma lucidum and other spiritual objects left by Huang Eniang, I don't dare to take risks.
Although Hongzao is not my biological son, he is better than my biological son. I have liked this nephew for a long time. Later, when Sister-in-law Fucha was dying, she asked the emperor to adopt Hongzao to me. At that time, Sister-in-law Fucha was old.
His appearance was declining, and his eldest son was disliked by the emperor's brother and fell out of favor. Even Hongzao was not favored by the emperor's brother. The sister-in-law did this just to save the younger son.
Sometimes, I also feel that the emperor's brother is very unkind, but he treats us brothers very well. He always told me to hold the military power. I went to the southwest and Yunnan and Tibet several times, and was promoted to the Iron Hat King because of my outstanding military achievements. The emperor's brother established a military aircraft department.
, appointed me as the chief military officer and minister, and the Thirteenth Brother and I became the right-hand men to assist the king in creating a prosperous world. It is a pity that the Thirteenth Brother was imprisoned by the Emperor’s Arma in a cold and cold beekeeping tunnel in his early years, leaving behind the root of the disease.
, after the emperor's brother ascended the throne, he worked hard day and night regardless of his body, and died in the eighth year of Qianyuan. What he still remembered before his death was his fourth brother, Prince Yong, who was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion.
The fourth brother rebelled against the imperial edict and was imprisoned in the clan house since the emperor's brother ascended the throne. He was not allowed to be free. I only visited him twice, once after the death of the thirteenth brother and the other time when the fourth brother was dying.
I went to see him twice. The fourth brother only spoke a few words. The first time he said was: "Oh. Sure enough, he died earlier than me." His tone was as light as fog, but it was filled with indescribable sadness. He was initially imprisoned in Zongren Mansion.
When I was a kid, I often heard Brother Ten say that Brother Four always cursed Brother Thirteen in prison. Now that Brother Thirteen is dead, he can no longer complain.
In the thirteenth year of Qianyuan, when the fourth brother was dying, he asked the tenth brother to send me a message saying that he wanted to see me. So I went to see him with his favorite green ant tribute wine. Since the thirteenth brother left, the fourth brother
Brother became more and more silent and loved to drink to drown his sorrows. In fact, in the house of the sect, except for the lack of freedom, the emperor did not treat him badly at all. His food and clothing were as per the treatment that a prince should have, and he also allowed his wife and children to live every day.
He came to visit once a month. Honghui was the only one who insisted on visiting his fourth brother every day for more than ten years. In his early years, his fourth sister-in-law often visited him, but later on, as she got older and was in poor health, she came less frequently.
On the day I went there, it was snowing heavily. The prison of the Zongren Mansion was actually an antique small courtyard. There was the fourth brother's confidant eunuch Su Peisheng waiting inside, and Honghui was also there. I went there a little late.
At that time, my fourth brother was sitting on the bed, seemingly having returned to his original state of mind. He asked me, "Isn't the snow falling beautifully outside?"
I said "yes".
He asked: "Hongli... is he feeling better?" When he asked this question, there was a hint of shame in his eyes.
I thought about it and said, "With proper care, you can live half a hundred years."
Hongli was weak and it took a lot of effort to grow up. To be honest, I don’t like Hongli. It’s not because he is weak or because he is incompetent in literature or military. It’s just his temperament that he loves to be arty and a little doting.
The concubine destroyed his wife, but there was one thing. The only thing he couldn't fault was his filial piety. Of course, he was not filial to his fourth brother, but to his mother-in-law Niu Hulu Anru. It was not in vain that Anru's cousin tried her best to treat him as a child.
If you give birth and raise yourself.
He asked again: "After I die, will the title be inherited by Honghui?"
I said "yes".
Then, the fourth brother went away peacefully. After he died, only Honghui cried bitterly for him. A hundred years later, not only did Honghui inherit the title of Prince Yong, but the other three sons of the fourth brother also became
For Baylor, because the imperial brother knew that Honghui was kind and the other three were difficult to be generous, he could safely extend his favor.
Later, when Hongyi came to the throne, in order to avoid the fear of the new emperor, I had to resign from the post of minister of the Military Aircraft Department on the grounds that my old illness had recurred. I took care of myself and spent more than ten years with Yunmo enjoying my grandchildren.
These past ten years have been the most comfortable and happiest days for me. Each of my brothers has gone ahead of me, and even Yunmo has passed away. I finally have nothing to miss. As for Hongzao, he already has six children.
I don’t need to worry about it anymore. Fortunately, I didn’t let Hong Zao practice martial arts. Instead, I asked him to learn Seventeenth Brother’s pen, ink, music, and chess together with Hong Yan, and become an elegant scholar.
Hongyi ascended the throne. Although he had political talents, he was far less broad-minded than the emperor's brother. The emperor's brother could forgive even the rebellious fourth brother and spare the fourteenth brother. Not only did he dare to reuse his biological brothers, he also treated several half-brothers.
He is also entrusted with important responsibilities. The emperor's brother is a natural superior. He has the confidence to control so many capable brothers and is not afraid of their rebellion.
Hong Yi is different. Not only is he very wary of his brothers, he is also wary of his two uncles, Brother Seventeen and me, especially my Eighteenth Uncle who once held military power. Maybe it’s because he is a concubine.
I feel a little inferior inside.
After he ascended the throne, no emperor brother took such a big step to confer princes to all his brothers. The emperor brother even later conferred the title of three iron-hatted kings (me, thirteenth brother, seventeenth brother), but Hongyi did not even get the title of prince.
Therefore, among the emperor's brothers, the two adopted sons have the highest titles. Hong Zao inherited the title of Prince Iron Hat Zhe from me, while Hong Yan inherited the title of Prince Iron Hat Xiang a hundred years later from Seventeenth Brother.
The title of prince. However, Hongzao's half-brother Hongming was only a Dorobel until his death.
But these are not things I should worry about. After the funeral was announced, I secretly escaped from the prince's mausoleum and changed my identity to find the master.
"You're here..." Master Jingyi was not surprised by my arrival, but he seemed to have begun to age after not seeing me for forty years.
It's true that Master Jingyi is also at the peak of Jindan's cultivation. His three hundred years of life are running out. If he cannot advance, he will also grow old and die.
The master looked at me carefully and said: "Your cultivation has improved very quickly, and you are no longer inferior to me." There was a hint of envy in his eyes, "With your current strength, you can break through at any time."
Forty years have passed, and I can finally talk to him calmly, but my tone is still a bit stiff and distant: "I don't want to owe you anything. You gave me a mustard seed bag, and I'll give you back a thousand-year-old snow lotus. You gave me a thousand-year-old snow lotus."
Protector, I will give you another thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum as reward."
The master's eyes were a little lonely: "I'm not doing this for you."
"It's up to you whether you want it or not. It's up to me to provide supplies!"
With the sufficient elixirs and Yang-returning elixirs left by E Niang, and the protection of my master, I successfully reached the Nascent Soul stage one year later.
Entering the Nascent Soul stage, I always felt that the time was too long, so I also learned to retreat from my master. When I felt bored, I would retreat. When I felt that I had nothing to do, I would go to retreat...
Retreat, come out, retreat, come out...
Fifty years later, the master also attacked Nascent Soul, but I don’t know whether he succeeded or not. Anyway, I never saw him again after that.
Living alone is getting more and more lonely, especially when I see the Qing Empire gradually declining, I just don’t want to come out of seclusion. So I go into seclusion for a long time, and when I come out again, the world is completely different, and I become
A world that feels extremely strange to me. It took me more than ten years to adapt to this so-called "modern" world. There are countless weird things. I just feel that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is getting thinner.
Finally, according to what E Niang said, two years before the Beijing Olympics, I came to the university she mentioned first. I looked forward to meeting E Niang again.
When the name "Wen Xi" appeared on the admission list of the new students of this university, I almost thought it was E Niang! But when I approached E Niang, I found that she didn't recognize me at all.
!My face and appearance have not changed much compared to those years ago, except that my hair style and clothes have changed. If she were the queen, there is absolutely no way she would not recognize me! What the hell is going on?!
I have been watching E Niang finish college, and she only treats me as a senior at the same school. Although E Niang’s appearance is completely different from before, the longer I observe her in secret, the more I realize that she is my queen.
E Niang! She just lost her memory! In order to awaken Huang E Niang’s memory, I gave her a precious fountain pen on her birthday. Huang E Niang’s pen calligraphy is much better than calligraphy with a brush! It’s just that
Huang's mother still didn't recognize me... I was a little disappointed, but at this moment I found that there were two people waiting for her memory to recover! (To be continued...)
