As a royal temple, it naturally has corresponding response procedures, and soon the abbot of the temple came out to greet.ap.
Xu Mochen was not polite. After entering, he asked: "Where is the Queen Mother? How is everything lately?"
The host saluted: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is still in the temple. Everything is fine since she came to the temple."
Xu Mochen nodded and followed the host all the way to the largest Buddhist hall in the back hall.
Candlelight flickers inside, and a touch of sandalwood floats in the air. Through the window panes, you can see the golden body of the Buddha statue inside, with its stern Dharma.
The host signaled Xu Mochen to stay, and she went in first to report. After a while, she turned around and came out: "Your Majesty, please."
"Tang Aiqing is waiting here. Concubine Xian will go with me." Xu Mochen stepped forward, crossed the threshold, and entered the Buddhist hall.
Under a Buddha statue several meters high, a woman is kneeling and chanting sutras.
"Mother," Xu Mochen saluted respectfully, "My son is here."
The woman did not stop reading the sutra, and Xu Mochen also kept bowing. After half a stick of incense, the woman got up and turned around after reciting the sutra.
Time seems to have left no trace on her body. Looking at her appearance, she still looks like a young girl.
It's just the clothing decoration, etc., which not only looks noble, but also has the atmosphere of twilight.
Xu Mochen was not surprised, because he now knew that his queen mother was an immortal cultivator.
"The emperor is here," the Queen Mother smiled, "How come you have time to come to the Ai family?"
"My mother has lived here for a long time, and I miss her very much." Xu Mochen stepped forward and supported the queen mother, "In addition, I have recently accepted a concubine, and I am thinking about how to let my mother meet her."
Then he pointed at Shen Zhining: "She is a virtuous concubine."
Shen Zhining's face was slightly red, and she stepped forward and bowed down: "I, my concubine, come to see the Queen Mother."
"That's all," the Queen Mother looked very satisfied, "In a blink of an eye, the emperor has grown up and finally married a wife and had children.
You are the emperor of Daqian, and you are the emperor who unifies the world. Don’t be willful in doing things in the future."
"My son, please remember your mother's teachings." Xu Mochen smiled.
"It can't be called teaching," the Queen Mother sighed, "The Ai family has ignored the affairs of the court. Compared with your father, you are much better than your father, who is a treasonous person.
But we must remember that everything is easy to break."
Xu Mochen was silent for a while: "What the mother means is to let her son listen to the opinions of the courtiers."
"You have an idea about the court affairs," the Queen Mother shook her head, "The Ai family is just talking.
Although the Ai family is not your biological mother, she has raised you since you were a child and does not want to see the emperor suffer.
Looking at you like this, you should know everything."
The affairs of immortal cultivators are kept very closely hidden from ordinary people. Even members of the royal family are very few who know about it.
People like Xu Chengyan and Xu Chenghao didn’t know about immortal cultivators when they were in the palace.
They went out to become vassal kings, and the immortal cultivators felt that they were still valuable, so they took the initiative to contact them.
According to Xu Mochen’s own words, this was only known recently.
"Mother," Xu Mochen couldn't help clenching his fists, "Mother, does she also feel that her son should act more gently?"
The so-called gentleness is to comply with the immortal cultivators.
The Queen Mother herself is an immortal cultivator, and it seems that her position will not be on the side of the human race.
"Your Majesty," the Queen Mother shook her head, "there is something you must remember.
Although the Ai family has no choice but to do so, the Ai family are still members of the royal family after all. Their names are recorded in the jade certificate and are recognized by heaven."
Xu Mochen was a bit unsure about this sentence, so he could only test it: "Then I asked directly whether the matter of the members of the subjugated clan had anything to do with the mother and queen.
Minister of Dali Temple, is he involved with the queen?"
As soon as these words came out, both of them froze.
Even Shen Zhining behind him couldn't help but become nervous.
The emperor has gone straight to the point.
"What if," the Queen Mother stared at Xu Mochen, "what if the Ai family says there is."
Xu Mochen took a deep breath: "Mother, the emperor commits the same crime as the common people..."
The Queen Mother understood, and she smiled: "Okay, he is indeed a child raised by the Ai family...
I heard that you killed several courtiers. Do you still want to use the fate of the country against the Ai family today?"
This sentence is simply heartbreaking.
Xu Mochen remained motionless: "I don't dare."
"Why don't you dare? The emperor who entered the immortal world is an outlier," the Queen Mother sneered, "so you are thinking that you won't even take the Ai family seriously."
The tone of this sentence was very high, and people inside and outside could hear it clearly.
Tang Derun and Shen Zhining both held their breath.
The face is torn, and the action is instantaneous.
Xu Mochen's eyes flashed: "If the Queen Mother thinks so, then she has misjudged my son."
"Really?" The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and squeezed out these two words.
She unfolded her consciousness.
The original loving mother and filial piety have completely disappeared.
Xu Mochen also reacted quickly. His realm was not as good as that of the Queen Mother, but the spirit passed through people, and the eight condensed souls spread all over the body, and the spiritual consciousness was also swept across.
As soon as the forces of the two sides collided, a whirlwind hung in the Buddhist hall.
Xu Mochen clenched his right fist, and the thunder of Yuan Lei's three movements condensed a ball of green light and struck towards the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother had a cold face, her eyes narrowed slightly, and a scene of Sanskrit words fell in front of her, blocking Xu Mochen.
"Sure enough," Xu Mochen struck the Sanskrit text with lightning, exploding a ball of light, "the queen mother is from the Buddhist world.
Therefore, the minister of Dali Temple talks about Shu Yi, and the young minister Qin Muran has a relationship with his mother."
"So what?" The Queen Mother sneered.
"I didn't expect that the connection between immortal cultivators would even exceed the kindness my mother gave me in raising me," Xu Mochen sighed, "Just because my son is the emperor of the human race and stands on the standpoint of the human race?"
"Since the Emperor knows this, why are you still arguing with each other?" The Queen Mother waved her long sleeves, "You haven't taken action yet!"
Xu Mochen concentrated on preparing for the Queen Mother's attack.
Unexpectedly, spiritual energy surged from behind. He turned around and saw that Shen Zhining deployed her magical power and took action against him.
"My beloved, you!" He hurriedly jumped up, never expecting that the people around him would rebel.
He was in mid-air, feeling shocked and uncertain in his heart. The Queen Mother alone couldn't bear it, plus Shen Zhining, she would definitely die if she was beaten.
"In that case, the destiny of the country..." Xu Mochen flipped his wrist, and the sword given by Duan Bailian appeared, injecting the power of the source of power, and the long sword glowed with cold light.
He was about to continue taking action when he suddenly felt that his energy was being locked behind him. When his consciousness swept away, he encountered a very familiar feeling.
"Tang Derun!" Xu Mochen roared,
"Your Majesty, it's time to go." Tang Derun had touched Xu Mochen's back before he knew it. At this moment, he flicked his finger and a drop of water hit Xu Mochen's abdomen.
Glaze Divine Water!
Xu Mochen only felt a cold air, which instantly locked his Qizang Divine Palace, completely freezing the power of the source. He lost his magical power and fell down.
"You!" He was unwilling to give in.
"Your Majesty," Tang Derun fell to the ground, and his face suddenly twisted and turned into another look.
It is Qin Muran, the young minister of Dali Temple!
