Origin Chapter 557: The Lord of the West Palace


Wu Zhongyuan called the palace servants to help the old blind man out of the palace, while he left the Zhongtian Palace and went to the harem.

There are three palaces and four pavilions in the harem, each of which is equipped with a maid, but only the West Palace has a master at this time.

There is a windproof oil lamp outside the gate of each palace and pavilion. The lamp base is carved from bluestone, about seven feet high, and has a built-in copper lamp. If this oil lamp is on, it means that the owner is not asleep. It means the owner is asleep.

At this time, there is no flipping the brand. Whoever is convenient to sleep will light the oil lamp in front of the palace pavilion. The king can choose the palace pavilion to light up according to his mood. However, according to the regulations, the monarchs of the palaces and pavilions that are not lit are not allowed to go. This is also a kind of respect for women.

The oil lamp in front of the West Palace gate is on, indicating that Jiang Nan has not slept yet.

Before this, there was no owner in the three palaces. Wu Zhongyuan had been resting alone in the middle palace. Now that Jiang Nan is in the west palace, he can no longer sleep by himself. This has nothing to do with etiquette and regulations, but to Jiang Nan. Disrespect.

If it were someone else, as soon as he heard that he was going to enter the bridal chamber, he would definitely go there, but Wu Zhongyuan began to struggle again. In fact, he was very straightforward in dealing with other things, except for men and women. He grew up in modern times, and the concept of marriage and love instilled is monogamy, but monogamy is completely in conflict with the three wives and four concubines at this time.

To tell the truth from the standpoint of men, all men want to occupy more of their spouses. This is the nature of male animals. There are no people who don't want to occupy more, only those who can't afford it and dare not occupy more.

Tangled is tangled, not very tangled. Human ideology is guided and shaped by those in power according to the needs of social stability. The biggest advantage of monogamy is that every man can marry a wife, which is beneficial to social stability. Three wives and four concubines are not feasible in modern times, but they are very suitable for the actual situation at this time. Excellent men occupy more spouses and can pass on excellent genes on a larger scale.

Don't want to be a **** again. I'm going to set up a torii again. In fact, I shouldn't even have such thoughts. This kind of thing is normal at this time.

There is a small gong hanging above the right side of the gate, which is equivalent to a modern doorbell, but this thing has another use, you can hear it when you knock in the harem, roughly meaning to tell other wives and wives, the king You have already gone to someone's house, you can wash and sleep.

Wu Zhongyuan doesn't like this kind of behavior of having to beat gongs and drums to sleep, but the rules should be followed, "Dang~"

As soon as the gong rang, Jiang Nan soon greeted him. There are palace maids in the West Palace, but according to the etiquette, his wife should come out to greet him in person.

Wu Zhongyuan laughed, Jiang Nan also laughed, the couple went into the house, and the maid would do the closing of the door. Wu Zhongyuan took a few steps and turned back. He had just finished beating the gong and forgot to hang the gavel back.

Because it was winter, there was a brazier in the house. The brazier in the palace was different from the brazier used by the common people.

Seeing the porridge, rice and vegetables warm on the brazier, Wu Zhongyuan asked casually, "How did you know I was coming?"

Jiang Nan helped Wu Zhongyuan take off his cloak and took the bow, arrow and long sword that he handed over, "You only enshrined me, where can you go if you don't come here?"

"Oh, I'm exhausted." Wu Zhongyuan stretched.

"You won't be able to relax for a long time in the future," Jiang Nan said.

Wu Zhongyuan was seated, Jiang Nan held the pot and poured tea. She was the princess of the cattle family, and she was used to the service of the palace maid. She naturally left the palace maid to do the trivial tasks of serving porridge, dishes and wine.

Because of the presence of the palace maid, Wu Zhongyuan did not talk about confidential matters, but just gossiped, "How is it, do you still live in the habit?"

"Very good." Jiang Nan said.

"Follow me tomorrow to worship my ancestors." Wu Zhongyuan said that sacrifices are the heaviest at this time. All kinds of sacrifices are strictly regulated, but it is not always possible to go to the graves of parents and cry.

"Okay." Jiang Nan nodded.

Wu Zhongyuan thought it would be awkward before he came in. The so-called awkwardness was not because there was any disharmony between the two, but because he thought he would feel that being close to another woman would hurt Wang Xinran. There is no such awkward feeling, they are all their own women, and they are treated with equal care and kindness. I am a person from ancient times, and I cannot always follow the modern way of life because I have lived in the modern age for 18 years. so-called obsessive-compulsive disorder.

The palace maid left after finishing her duties. As soon as the door was closed, only the husband and wife were left in the room.

Jiang Nan got up from his seat, walked to Wu Zhongyuan and knelt on his knees.

"What are you doing?" Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly put down the teacup and helped him.

Jiang Nan is also a Taixuan cultivation base. She can't get up, and Wu Zhongyuan can't use the aura deadlift. Jiang Nan solemnly said, "Father, the king, has sinned, and this should not be forgiven. "

"Why are you being so outspoken? Get up quickly." Wu Zhongyuan frowned.

Jiang Nan stood up and returned to the throne, "Holy..."

"I don't know what to do," Wu Zhongyuan interrupted Wu Di, "I can't do anything when outsiders are present, I can't make them feel that I'm not at all arrogant, what should you shout when no one is there? What are you shouting?"

Jiang Nan is not a pinch person either. Hearing Wu Zhongyuan say this, he didn't continue to insist. He stood up to pour the wine and said, "Zhongyuan, I have a question I've been wanting to ask you."

"I know what you want to ask," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head and said, "If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't take back my spiritual energy and let them go. It's too dangerous. You must know that this is not my own business, but about the bear clan. People's safety, I do this is suspected of false public benefit, as Da Wu, I should not risk the fate of the bear clan."

"Thank you very much." Jiang Nan was very moved.

"In your opinion, will I regret it in the future?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.

"No," Jiang Nan shook his head sternly, "as the father said, he never believed in anyone in his life, but he believes in you now. Prince Li is a man of righteousness and blood, you spare his life and reward him With Qinglongjia and him, he will be loyal to the Lord and will never break his word and rebel."

"I also feel that I will not regret it," Wu Zhongyuan nodded and raised his glass, "Come, toast to you."

Jiang Nan raised a glass, and the couple drank.

Wu Zhongyuan was a little hungry, and took a bowl to eat, "Before I was so busy, I was running around all the time, I haven't talked to you for a long time, what do you want to say, even if you have anything you need me to do? also."

"I know you're busy, but I'm not good at handling government affairs, and I can't help you much, and I don't have anything to trouble you," Jiang Nan shook his head and said, "But there is one thing I've been worrying about."

"What are you worried about? Are you worried about Wu Di's discomfort?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.

Jiang Nan shook his head, "Let's talk about Wu Di Taixuan later. I worry about my father. I understand my father. Although he remembered what happened yesterday, he sincerely surrendered, but my father is concerned about gains and losses, and cares about interests. If you relapse, you must not misunderstand and blame."

"Haha," Wu Zhongyuan smiled, "The country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. You can rest assured. As long as you don't lose your loyalty, gain or loss is a trivial matter."

Listening to Wu Zhongyuan's words, Jiang Nan breathed a sigh of relief. As she said, she knew her father too well. He was a profitless businessman, and Li Tai was a reckless man with more courage and less resourcefulness. , After the previous incident, Li Tai wanted to dedicate everything to Wu Zhongyuan. In the future, when the two princes compared, Jiang Zheng must be an unpleasant master.

"You mentioned Wu Di just now, she made a contribution today, why didn't you take the opportunity to consecrate her?" Jiang Nan picked up the pot and poured wine.

"What I hate the most is that others lie to me. She and Xiangguo are carrying out plots and tricks behind my back, and they almost make me unjust. I forgive her now, isn't it too cheap for her?" Wu Zhongyuan put down his job and took He picked up the wine glass, drank with Jiang Nan again, and then put down the wine glass and continued to eat, "Wu Di is very smart, but she is not well thought out. It seems that even if she wants to do things like this, she should plan carefully. They are better, in advance. Don't remind me, so I was attacked and embarrassed and almost died."

"They may not have thought that their father and Prince Li would act so early. She just made an unintentional mistake..."

"You don't need to intercede with her," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I have my own measure."

Wu Zhongyuan settled down, and Jiang Nan couldn't say anything else.

Wu Zhongyuan said, "I have to call your father in a few days and ask him about some things back then, don't get me wrong, I don't want to settle the old account, I just want to know who pushed him to unite with the bird clan. Attack those with bears. Also, he had been in contact with Huang Sheng of the Demon Race before, and the five seals will disappear by the end of this year. I still don’t know enough about the other five, so I have to learn as much as possible.”

"Don't worry, I won't misunderstand, I trust you." Jiang Nan nodded.

"Mummy," Wu Zhongyuan scolded casually, "how come the seal hasn't disappeared, and the Sifang Divine Beast hasn't passed away, and the tentacles of Wudao have already stretched out. What's wrong?"

This is a question that has been bothering Wu Zhongyuan for a long time. Jiang Nan naturally can't answer it, but he reached into his arms, took out the white soul-fixing stone and handed it over, "Yesterday, the incident happened suddenly, and I couldn't take it or deliver it. Keep this thing, you need it more than I do."

"I don't want it, you keep it." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head.

Jiang Nan re-delivered, "I don't need it, and now you are the Yellow Emperor, and you have become the target of five public criticisms. You need to be careful."

"I said no, I won't..." Wu Zhongyuan suddenly remembered something when he said that, took the soul-fixing stone and frowned, and after a while, he put down the bowl and chopsticks and took the tea to rinse his mouth, "Let's go, come with me to a Visit Zhongtian Temple."

"What to do?" Jiang Nan was puzzled.

"I once got a mysterious box with a nine-yin candle dragon carved on the box. I suspect it is a set of candle dragon armor. The soul stone is the eye of the candle dragon. Let's compare it in the past. , to see if this soul-fixing stone can be placed in the eye socket of the candle dragon on the box." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"What if it's right?" Jiang Nan took Wu Zhongyuan's cape from the hanger.

"Two soul-fixing stones, one black and one white, the black one belongs to yin, which can protect the soul from death, and the white one belongs to the eyes, which can protect the body from injury. This armor is invincible if the yin and yang are complete. That's right, we have to go to Kunlun Mountain again..."
