Li Mu and Zhang Chun waited at the palace gate for a long time. They did not wait for the Queen, but they did wait for Lord Mei.
Lord Mei walked out of the palace gate and said to the two of them: "It's okay, go back."
Zhang Chun was stunned for a moment and asked: "How is it inside?"
Master Mei looked at Li Mu and said: "Your Majesty used Xuan Guang to recreate yesterday's scene. All the officials were angry. Zhou Ting, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, failed to teach his son well and asked to resign. Your Majesty has agreed. Zhou Chu will die as a result of heaven's punishment. With you
It doesn’t matter, you can go back.”
Zhang Chun asked: "Is there anything else?"
Master Mei asked: "What do you want?"
Zhang Chun shook his head, a little regretful, but didn't say much.
Master Mei suddenly took out a stack of talismans from his sleeve, handed it to Li Mu, and said, "Your Majesty gave this to you."
Li Mu looked at the stack of Zixiao thunder talismans in his hand, thoughtfully.
Master Mei handed him another jade pendant and said, "This is also a gift from your Majesty."
Li Mu took the jade pendant, looked over it over and over, but couldn't see the meaning, and asked, "What is this?"
Master Mei said: "This jade pendant can hide the secrets of heaven. You can wear it close to your body."
When Li Mu heard this, he suddenly felt that the jade pendant in his hand became heavier.
Covering the secrets seems to have no real effect, it can neither increase defense nor enhance attack, but it has a very important function, which is to block the calculations of the most powerful.
A strong Dongxuan person has already had his first glimpse of the mysteries of heaven. He can observe the stars, know the number of fortunes, and deduce good or bad luck by counting with his fingers. He can even calculate someone's location and monitor it remotely through Xuanguang technology.
If there is something on the body that covers the secrets of heaven, it can block the calculations of the powerful people above Dongxuan, which can be of great use at certain times.
This jade pendant that concealed the secrets of heaven and a stack of purple sky thunder talismans made Li Mu temporarily confused as to whether the queen knew something.
It stands to reason that even if a strong person in the seventh realm can calculate that Zhou Chu's death is related to him, he should not be able to determine whether he died directly or indirectly at the hands of Li Mu. Qian Huan said that the secret of heaven is unpredictable and no one can predict it.
Being able to calculate all the secrets of heaven, the so-called arithmetic is just some hazy induction, which is difficult to be specific.
He accepted the jade pendant, bowed to Master Mei, and said, "Sister Mei thanked Your Majesty for me."
Lord Mei sighed and said, "Your Majesty has endured a lot to protect you this time. I hope you will remember His Majesty's goodness."
Li Mu once had some worries about not being able to write two weeks in one stroke, but after today, his worries have disappeared.
From today on, he truly regards himself as the Queen's man.
It's a pity that he was not summoned today and had no chance to meet her, but there is no need to worry. Now that he has initially embraced the queen, there will be many opportunities to meet her in the future.
Zhou Mansion.
Wow!
In a small courtyard, there were sounds of breaking porcelain. The servant girl's servants were standing in the courtyard, all with their heads lowered and not daring to speak.
The middle-aged woman picked up a vase and smashed it to pieces. She gasped for air and gritted her teeth and said: "My virgin died in vain. I am not willing to accept it. I am not willing to accept it..."
She pointed in the direction of the palace and cursed: "She is also from the Zhou family, how can she be so cruel..."
Snapped!
Zhou Ting slapped her in the face and said in a deep voice: "Shut up, Your Majesty, you can make arbitrary comments!"
The woman was slapped by him and stood there stupidly. After a moment, she looked up at Zhou Ting, shook her head and said: "Crazy, you Zhou family people are crazy. I want to leave here, and you won't help me."
Chu'er takes revenge, I will take revenge..."
Zhou Ting looked at her leaving figure, raised his steps, and finally fell again.
Over the course of a day, he became much haggard and older. Today, in the court hall, the scenes in the scene were constantly playing out in his mind. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said: "Li Mu..."
Royal Palace.
In the back garden, the Queen has stayed here for a long time after going to court.
She looked in the direction of the Zhou family for a long time before looking away and asked, "Am I really cruel?"
The young female official said: "Zhou Chu's death was well deserved and no one can be blamed. Your Majesty does not need to blame himself for this."
The queen seemed to be asking her, but she didn't seem to be asking her. She didn't say anything else, left the garden and walked to a magnificent palace.
Above the palace, there are two big characters "ancestral temple" written on it.
The young female official stopped in front of the ancestral temple. Only the royal family could enter the Zhou ancestral temple. For them, it was a forbidden area that they could not enter.
When the queen walked into the ancestral temple, what she saw was a high platform.
On the high platform, from top to bottom, there are tablets of more than ten emperors of the Zhou Dynasty. In front of the tablets, sandalwood curls up.
In addition to these tablets, the most eye-catching thing in the ancestral temple is the small tripods with three legs and two ears. They are neatly arranged in a row under the tablets of the emperors of the Zhou Dynasty. After counting them carefully,
, you will find that there are thirty-six of these small cauldrons.
Thirty-six small tripods, the tripod body emits a faint golden light. These golden lights are strong and weak. The strong light is dazzling, and the weak light is extremely dim. The golden light of each small tripod condenses into golden lines and gathers in the ancestral temple.
In a giant cauldron.
The giant cauldron has three legs and six ears. The body of the cauldron has no light, but there is a golden dragon swimming in the cauldron.
The golden dragon felt the Queen's approach, swam out of the cauldron, circled happily above her head several times, and then flew back to the cauldron.
In the corner of the ancestral temple, there are three futons.
Three figures were sitting cross-legged on the futon.
The auras of the three people are extremely obscure, and they are all wearing black dragon robes. If you look closely, you will find that the golden dragon embroidered on their dragon robes has only four claws.
An old man on the left with a face as withered as tree bark opened his eyes, looked at the one with the most dazzling light among the thirty-six small cauldrons, and said: "The mental power of the people in the city of God has increased several times in this month.
The guy you transferred from North County is quite capable."
The queen looked calm, looked at the golden dragon swimming on the giant cauldron, and asked: "When will this imperial energy be perfected?"
The old man said: "During Emperor Wen's time, it took twenty years for the people to return to their hometowns, and the two generations of emperors spent nearly a hundred years in their lives before they gave birth to one, which has been used by you. With the current Great Zhou Dynasty, it is far away from the next emperor.
It will take at least thirty years for Qi to reach consummation..."
The Queen frowned and said, "It's too long."
The old man smiled and said: "The Zhou family has had the intention to steal the country hundreds of years ago. They have been planning for so long. Several generations of ancestors have sacrificed their lives and blood to finally obtain an imperial aura. But you don't want to be this ninety-five-year-old king."
,It’s really ironic…”
The Queen said coldly: "The Zhou family's affairs have nothing to do with me!"
The old man smiled and said: "I'm afraid you will have to sit in this position for a long time. You will slowly lose your relatives and friends. The officials respect you and fear you, but they will never tell you their true feelings. Your father and mother, call you
Your Majesty, I have ulterior motives for you. No woman will approach you, no man will like you, and you will slowly lose love, hate, joy, anger, sorrow, and joy..."
"do not talk!"
"It's useless, this is what every generation of emperors belongs to, and you are no exception..."
…
A golden whip appeared in the Queen's hand, and she said word by word: "I asked you to stop talking!"
The old man lowered his head and immediately fell into a deep sleep.
The queen walked out of the ancestral temple, and the young female officer respectfully said: "Your Majesty."
The queen looked at the look of respect on her face, her face regained its majesty, and said: "Go back to the palace..."
Shendu, Li Mansion.
Li Mu had just upgraded the formation in his house. He used some unused talismans and magic weapons in a shop specially opened for practitioners in Shendu to exchange for spiritual jade, and then used spiritual jade to buy it in another shop.
The store purchased a set of formation flags.
Although the city of God is mostly populated by civilians, there are also several markets specifically for practitioners to communicate and trade.
Using the upgraded formation of Array Chess, you can temporarily trap practitioners in the fifth realm. If you want to break into the formation silently, you must have Dong Xuan cultivation level.
After doing this, Li Mu divided more than half of the bunch of purple sky thunder talismans given to him by the queen to Xiaobai for self-defense, leaving only a few for himself.
The jade pendant and thunder talisman given to him by the Queen were a way of stealing the sky and concealing the secret. No matter how slow Li Mu was, he understood the Queen's intention at this moment.
The Zixiao thunder talisman is the proof that Li Mu will use thunder in the future, otherwise he will not be able to reveal his thunder in front of others after Zhou Chu's incident.
And this jade pendant that conceals the secrets of heaven prevents practitioners above Dongxuan from counting on him.
After thoughtfully helping Li Mu prepare these things, the Queen must have known that Zhou Chu's death was his fault.
A person who is detached from the strong is so terrifying.
Even so, she still chose to protect Li Mu, which shows that Li Mu still has some status in her heart, and he is worthy of his hard work for her these days.
Not only does he have justice in his heart, but he also protects his shortcomings.
