Empress with no Virtue Chapter 67: Resolve
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Queen Wude!
Ye Zhenzhen is a person who likes reading, but she is not a scholar.
Because what she read were all popular folk tales, such as "The Chronicles of the Eastern Zhou Dynasties", "The Romance of the Gods", "Journey to the West" and the like, which had nothing to do with the books of sages. Among these novels, she especially liked the supernatural and historical legends, as well as some stories about wild knights. Her tastes were basically the same as those of ordinary people.
Someone among the people specially wrote a catalog about folk tales novels. Ye Zhenzhen turned it out and carefully counted and found that among the folk tales, stories about gods and monsters, historical stories, and romance stories each accounted for one-third. one. There are many national heroes who fought against foreigners in historical stories.
Cross out the romance stories, the first two are worth learning from.
That night, Ye Zhenzhen was so inspired that she burned the midnight oil and wrote a novel overnight. Ji Wu Jiu stayed with her all night, sitting next to her. She would write a page, and he would read a page. At the same time, he would sort out what he had written before and hold it in his hand in a thick stack.
This story, in Ji Wu Jiu's opinion, is not attractive. It involves gods descending to earth, Tai Sui star being reincarnated, fighting and fighting monsters, it's very boring. However, Ye Zhenzhen worked so hard to write it, Ji Wu Jiu couldn't bear to criticize her. In the end, he stopped reading the novel and only stared at Ye Zhenzhen's face - it was much better than the novel.
When Ye Zhenzhen became serious, her eyes were very focused and her thin black eyebrows were slightly condensed. She occasionally bit her pen in deep thought, then suddenly realized something and started writing quickly. Because she hadn't slept all night, her eye sockets were dark and blue, and there were some bloodshot eyes under her eyes. Ji Wu Jiu looked at her and felt heartbroken.
As time passed, the pile of paper became thicker and thicker. Feng Youde walked in, bent down to Ji Wu Jiu and whispered, "Your Majesty, it's time for you to attend the morning court."
Ji Wu Jiu stood up, stretched, and let the palace maid who walked in change into the dragon robe. He gently rubbed Ye Zhenzhen's head and said warmly, "Zhenzhen, I'm leaving now. I'll see you again after the court."
Ye Zhen Zhen was writing happily, her eyes were shining and she kept writing, and she didn't even hear what Ji Wu Jiu said.
Feng Youde watched silently from the side, thinking that the empress was too bold. If she dared to treat the emperor with such an attitude, there would probably be no one else in the harem.
Ji Wu Jiu didn't feel bad when he saw Ye Zhen Zhen's reaction. He bent down and kissed the side of her face, then turned and left.
It wasn’t until Ye Zhenzhen finished writing this story that she realized that Ji Wu Jiu had left. Seeing that she finally stopped writing, Su Feng came in with refreshments and said, "Madam, are you tired? Please rinse your mouth to wake up and eat some snacks to cushion your stomach. I will ask someone to serve the food now."
"No," Ye Zhenzhen covered her mouth and yawned, shaking her head, "I want to sleep."
You have remembered to go to sleep, Su Feng thought amusingly, and immediately helped Ye Zhen Zhen lie down on the bed, put down the bed curtain, and then walked out softly.
The little Myna brother on the shelf seemed to be understanding. He had not said a word since he woke up and squatted silently on his own site to reduce his presence. Therefore, Su Feng actually forgot to take it out.
Ye Zhenzhen slept until the afternoon. During this period, Ji Wu Jiu came once. Seeing that she was asleep, he didn't bother her and turned around to go to the Heart Cultivation Hall.
Ye Zhenzhen was very hungry as soon as she woke up, and kept shouting for something to eat. Coincidentally, today Concubine Zhuang heard that the Empress had temporarily canceled the greetings for the concubines, thinking that the Empress was not feeling well, so she came to visit Ye Zhenzhen in the afternoon, bringing snacks made by herself.
Using flowers to make snacks, Concubine Zhuang considers herself second, but no one dares to claim first. It was ten days in early summer, and the palace was filled with flowers, which provided her with a lot of material. Ever since she knew that Ye Zhenzhen liked to eat the snacks she made, Concubine Zhuang worked harder and treated Ye Zhenzhen more courteously than she treated the emperor. She knew that the emperor was a difficult person to please, but the queen was different. Half of the fate of women in the harem is in the hands of the queen, and Ye Zhenzhen is a kind and kind queen, so as long as she tries her best to please her, she will definitely not suffer.
After eating a few snacks, Ye Zhenzhen was in a good mood. At this time, Ji Wu Jiu knew that Ye Zhen Zhen was awake, so he came to see her again. After sitting down, he saw that she was eating snacks that were very delicious. He looked a little hungry too, so he ate two pieces.
Seeing that Ye Zhen Zhen had eaten so much that there was a lot of snack residue on the corner of her mouth, showing no trace of the dignity of her mother, Ji Wu Jiu couldn't help but joked, "Concubine Zhuang's snacks were made for me, and now they all come in It hurts your belly."
When Concubine Zhuang heard this, she hurriedly said, "If the emperor likes to eat, I will make another one for you."
"No need," Ji Wu Jiu replied, "I will eat the same in Kunning Palace, so there is no need to bother."
What do you mean by this, the emperor and the queen are so good that they can't tell each other apart? Concubine Zhuang was thinking about this, and she instantly felt that she had made the right choice.
After Ye Zhenzhen had enough snacks, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, took a sip of tea, cleared her throat and said, "Okay, let's start listening to the story."
Concubine Zhuang didn't know what was going on and just watched Ye Zhenzhen greet a few palace maids and eunuchs and go to the main hall.
A large table was placed in the middle of the main hall. Ye Zhenzhen sat in front of the table, pointing to the row of round stools facing her, "Everyone, please take a seat."
Concubine Zhuang saw that all the maids and eunuchs were sitting down, so she took her personal maids and sat down with them.
Then Ji Wu Jiu also sat on the round stool.
Concubine Zhuang was so frightened that she stood up quickly, "Your Majesty -" I have never seen such an arrangement of seats. The queen sat at the top and the emperor sat at the bottom, sitting together with a group of palace maids and eunuchs.
"You don't have to be formal. This is what I and the Queen have agreed upon. Sit down."
After hearing what Ji Wu Jiu said, Concubine Zhuang sat down nervously.
Ye Zhenzhen slapped the paperweight, making Concubine Zhuang tremble in fright. All she heard was the empress opened her mouth and said, "If you are a storyteller, a performer, you should take the middle of the three roads. Good and evil will be rewarded in the end. The right way in the world is Vicissitudes of life!" Seeing everyone sitting upright and staring at her, Ye Zhenzhen felt very accomplished, "What we are going to talk about today is a real thing that happened in this dynasty. By the way..."
This afternoon, Ji Wu Jiu led Concubine Zhuang, Feng Youde, Wang Youcai, Su Yue, Su Feng, Concubine Zhuang's maids, and a little myna to listen carefully to what Ye Zhenzhen had compiled. Evening story. The seven people and one bird listened with great interest. The others were attracted by the story, but the one who supported Ji Wu Jiu to continue listening was Ye Zhenzhen's cheerful and silly look.
This story tells the story of the Jade Emperor sending the Nine Heavens Mysterious Girl to the earth to help a wise king rule the world. The mortal body of Jiutian Xuannv married the emperor and became a queen. She caught up with the border war. Because Xuannv was good at military tactics, she followed the emperor to fight in person. Empress Xuannv deliberately disguised herself and infiltrated into the enemy army. She not only tricked the enemy leaders, but also extracted important information and helped the emperor to attack Huanglong and win in one fell swoop. After returning to the court, the enemy captives knew the identity of Xuannv and became resentful. They deliberately spread rumors to discredit her to vent their anger. After the emperor found out, he was ready to find out those mean-mouthed barbarians and clear up the name of Empress Xuannu.
The outline of the story is roughly like this, of course, there are many subplots. For example, in order to show the power of Empress Xuannv, she is assigned a high-level opponent, and then gives the opponent an origin of an evil force in the fairy world; interspersed with various interesting battles of wits and courage, the winner in the end must be Empress Xuannv; Empress Xuannv arranged a scolding battle at the top of the city, scolding the people of the Central Plains, and so on.
The whole story has a compact plot, ups and downs, and many waves. It adds a variety of popular elements such as supernatural beings, ethnic wars, humorous wits, etc., and it mainly tells the story of the country's people expelling the invaders and finally winning a great victory. Stories like this make people from the Central Plains feel relieved and relieved.
After Ye Zhenzhen finished speaking, she picked up the tea and drank it.
Ji Wu Jiu looked left and right, and when he saw that everyone around him had an afterthought expression on their face, it didn't look like they were pretending, and he realized that he was the outlier.
After everyone thought about it, they clapped their hands and applauded.
Feng Youde asked curiously, "Empress, you have always emphasized that this is a story that happened in this dynasty. Who is this Empress Xuannv?"
Wang Youcai said, "Do you still have to ask? Of course she is the Queen!"
To beautify yourself like this, the Queen is so shameless. Feng Youde thought silently, but he is so shameless and creative...
His idea represents the voice of almost everyone here.
The first trial lecture of the storybook went well. Ji Wu Jiu immediately asked Feng Youde to find the most famous storyteller in the capital, and he would come to see him tomorrow.
Feng Youde went to receive the order. At this time, it was dinner time, and Ye Zhenzhen stayed with Concubine Zhuang to eat. Concubine Zhuang always felt that Ji Wu Jiu looked at her as an eyesore and did not dare to eat in Kunning Palace, so she left.
After dinner and tea, Ji Wu Jiu did not return to the Heart Cultivation Hall. He pulled Ye Zhenzhen to sit on the bed and smiled maliciously, "Xiaosheng heard that Empress Xuannu is proficient in the art of the house. Can you answer my questions?"
Ye Zhenzhen frowned and said, "Didn't you stay up all night last night? It would be prudent to rest early today."
"This is exactly Xiaosheng's doubt," Ji Wu Jiu suddenly came closer and looked at her with a smile, "Although I haven't slept all night, I feel energetic when I see Empress Xuan Nu. My whole body is full of energy. What should I do? Huh?" The ending tone rose, with a strong sense of ridicule. He hooked her chin, kissed the corner of her mouth, and continued, "Is there any way, my queen, to **** in the little boy's energy so that the boy is exhausted and exhausted, so that he can sleep peacefully?"
Ye Zhenzhen thought about it, it seemed like she was the one who was exhausted every time? She was a little unconvinced, but she had regained her energy today, and he hadn't slept all night, so she had a slight chance of winning this time.
Ji Wu Jiu laid Ye Zhen Zhen down on the bed, leaned forward and kissed her tenderly. Just as he was about to take off his clothes, he suddenly looked up and said, "Wait a minute."
"What's wrong?" Ye Zhenzhen asked.
Ji Wu Jiu didn’t answer. He got out of bed and walked to the window, picked up one of Myna's legs, held it upside down, pushed open the window, and threw it out.
Ye Zhenzhen seemed to hear a scream of "ouch" coming from outside the window. "Is he going to be okay?" she asked.
"Don't worry about that bird for now," Ji Wu Jiu returned to the bed, pressed her down, bit her lip, and said vaguely, "Don't worry about that bird for now." He said, □ He straightened up slightly and rubbed against Ye Zhenzhen's thigh.
***
Feng Youde has always been reliable in his work. The next day when Ji Wujiu went to court, he saw the storyteller. This man's name is Liu Junxian, he is in his early forties, has a thin face, a thin mouth, and his eloquence is pretty good at first glance.
The social status of storytellers is generally not high. Being able to establish some friendships with some petty officials or wealthy businessmen is enough to make their peers envious. Liu Junxian was the most famous storyteller in the capital, and the highest-ranking official he knew was only a fifth-rank official. Now that he suddenly had to meet the emperor, he was so nervous that he didn't even know how to let go of his hands, and he stumbled when he spoke.
Ji Wu Jiu rarely spoke, so he only showed his storybook to Liu Jun to read first. When Liu Jun first met his own profession, his eyes became brighter. He took a rough look at the storybook and praised the person who wrote it.
So Ji Wu Jiu told him his purpose. Liu Junxian heard that the emperor asked him to do something, and there was no way he would not agree to it. Moreover, this was to help the queen clear her name. If he did it well, his face would be bright for several lifetimes. So he agreed.
Ji Wu Jiu discussed some details with him and asked him not to let others know that he was acting according to orders for the time being. He also asked him to add some plot points about the romantic relationship between the emperor and the empress, and then let him go.
After that, Ji Wu Jiu came to Kunning Palace.
In Kunning Palace, Ye Zhenzhen was worried. Ji Wu Jiu threw Brother Myna away yesterday, and it hasn't come back yet. It seems like it really fell to death.
Ji Wu Jiu heard about it and advised her, "Its wings are not used for swimming, so how could it fall to death so easily? Besides, even if it is really dead, you should see the body, you Ask them who has seen Brother Myna’s body."
Ye Zhenzhen asked again, but no one saw it.
Just as he was talking, Wang Youcai came back from outside with a happy face. He half-raised his arm, and what was on his arm was not the unlucky bird.
"When I found it, it was standing on the rockery in the imperial garden singing!" Wang Youcai said, raising his arms, and Myna jumped onto the shelf consciously.
Ye Zhenzhen gently touched its bird's head.
Little Myna suddenly stretched his neck and shouted, "The Queen is happy! The Queen is happy!"
