Ji and Jiang
"She must be quite young. Otherwise she would have recognized my face."
Oh, she was looked down upon. Aside from a few people, there weren't many people who could call Cang Xuan a little girl.
Chang Xia looked at Ye Shuxing and said, "Isn't it because you are too old?"
Ye Shuxing: ...
"In fact, the previous Cang Xuan, who was over a thousand years old, was not really too old."
Changxia suddenly had no way to refute him.
The lifespan of the Nascent Soul is one thousand years, the lifespan of the Out-of-Body is one thousand five hundred, the lifespan of the Spirit is three thousand years, the lifespan of the Combined Body is five thousand years, and when one crosses the tribulation, the lifespan is even ten thousand years.
Those immortals who have often left their bodies, split their spirits, merged their bodies, and survived tribulations, and even those who live as long as the sky, can all live over a thousand years. Logically, more than a thousand years is really not that old.
But Changxia's current seniority in the world of immortal cultivation is extremely high, almost the same level as the head of a sect or the head of a realm.
Why? Because most of the people older than her were left with Jianmu, and a few died in Chi Zhouhai.
She was silent for a moment before she said, "This isn't a topic that should be brought up casually."
Ye Shuxing scratched his head, realizing he had said something wrong, so he changed the subject and said, "Young lady, you should have heard of the owner of this face of mine. It's Feng Yibai from Qianqiu Mountain."
The one Xilizhu mentioned disappeared in the period of tribulation without suffering.
Chang Xia quickly grasped the key point: "What is his relationship with Princess Mingyue?"
Ye Shuxing didn't keep it a secret: "It's Princess Mingyue's Queying Palace."
Changxia didn't expect there was such a relationship.
Palace gossip was always a perennial topic of discussion after dinner. She and her senior brother, isolated and ignorant on the mountain, had previously kept to themselves. As she grew older, she met many sisters from other Yunting Mountains, and their topics of discussion became increasingly diverse. Later, ever since her third junior sister, Huo Tinglan, came up the mountain, they had been discussing these secrets even more. Her third junior sister, while keeping a low profile, was incredibly knowledgeable about these anecdotes. She could speak with such clarity about many things Changxia didn't know, and it was unknown where she'd heard them from.
More than a hundred years ago, the sixth junior sister also came. She reanalyzed these interesting anecdotes from the perspective of her world, and many things that Changxia didn't understand before suddenly became clear to her.
Princess Mingyue and her Queying Palace are one of them.
Princess Mingyue was also an uncrowned Human Emperor. She wasn't initially recognized by Heaven and Earth as the Human Emperor. In her generation, the Human Emperor recognized by Heaven and Earth was one of her brothers. However, the immortal realm's divine punishment destroyed so much historical material that four thousand years later, the name and deeds of this prince are untraceable. The most prominent mention left in history books is simply "Princess Mingyue's brother."
Changxia is not good at learning history books.
She was taught by Xie Fengxue when she was semi-illiterate. She herself was illiterate for many years. Later, Zuo Qin took over her education and things got a little better.
But Zuo Qin always followed his children's wishes. Compared with official history, Chang Xia was obviously more interested in unofficial history. Therefore, Zuo Qin used all his knowledge of ancient and modern times to explore these unconventional things. He even made a special fortune-telling on the question of whether a certain emperor was gay...
Changxia didn't know Princess Mingyue's political ideas, but she knew that she had two true loves, one man and one woman, who were both kind and sensitive to each other.
She is the only Human Emperor in the 90,000-year history of Cang Xuan Cang who has married two concubines.
In short, she owns both Mingyue Palace and Queying Palace.
When discussing these secret histories with Huo Tinglan in bed, the little girl said with longing that this was a role model for our generation.
Changxia gave her a slap on the shoulder and said, "You are not the Human Emperor."
No matter whether a strong man or a woman has numerous affairs, no one will say anything. However, when it comes to serious marriage, Cang Xuan still advocates monogamy.
Especially in the Eastern Territory, where etiquette and law are emphasized, Taoist companions who have formed a pact of unity can generally only be a pair.
After all, your heart is like mine, how can one heart be split in two?
But Ji Zhao actually did reveal it in front of everyone. The previous Luhu Master Jiang Xinyue and Bie Jingchun's master Chunyu Bai personally presided over the ceremony. After burning three sticks of incense and reporting to heaven and earth, he gave half of his heart to Mingyue Palace and half to Queying Palace in front of everyone.
The world marveled at her unconventionality.
Later, the historical data was incomplete. For some reason, the information about her Que Ying Palace was completely cut off. Those who knew did not care, and those who cared had no way of knowing. By the time it was passed down to the present day, few people knew about this person.
Chang Xia frowned and searched his mind for a moment. "Back then, the heavenly punishment severed the Jianmu ladder, released the demon race from the Eternal Day Sea, and reduced the luck of the Dao by 30%. I remember that 30% of the luck was finally blocked by the imperial luck of the Ji family."
Back then, the Ji family went against all odds and the person who presided over this matter was Ji Zhao.
Fortunately, it was blocked, otherwise, with only the remaining seven levels of luck, Cang Xuan might not have produced so many outstanding people in the past four thousand years, and would not have been able to resist the heavenly punishment that happened again eight hundred years ago.
Ye Shuxing lowered his eyes, but talked about another unimportant matter.
"Miss, do you know what Mingyue Palace is and why the Jiang family has been Mingyue Palace for generations?"
Changxia naturally didn't know this. She intuitively felt that this involved the deepest secret of the Ji family.
She said coldly: "This seems to have nothing to do with me."
Ye Shuxing smiled strangely. He was a gentle person, and even though there was calculation in his eyes, it made people feel sorry for him and think that he had other difficulties.
"Girl, the aura of the Human Emperor that you possess has already drawn you into this. In thirteen years at the most, when Zhongtian Ziwei returns to his position, anyone who wishes to gain a connection with the Human Emperor for whatever purpose will use you as a breakthrough point."
He smiled brightly, with a hint of inexplicable malice, as if mocking Chang Xia's indifferent attitude over the past two days - you said you didn't want to get involved, but you are clearly in the game now.
It was a bit cold on a bitter night, and a draft squeezed in through the gaps in the bamboo building, slightly lifting Changxia's hair.
She suddenly softened.
Ye Shuxing saw the swordsman, who hadn't given him a good look all night, suddenly smile sincerely. He heard her say, "Although I don't know who the Human Emperor is, I know she left his aura on me in the first place, it must have been for my own good."
"But this is a different matter from whether I want to wade into this mess." She looked into the young man's eyes and said seriously, "Ye Shuxing, you may have a thousand difficulties, but I will not believe your one-sided story. Princess Mingyue, the contemporary Human Emperor..."
She added silently in her heart, and Ji Sheng.
"I will investigate these matters. I am selfish and protective, and I only care about the lives of those I care about."
Ye Shuxing looked into her eyes and said gently, "That's enough."
"Princess Mingyue...is not a dissolute person. The one she has always thought of and loved is Feng Yibai."
He is her blood, her flesh, feeling what she thinks and thinking what she thinks.
He transformed into Feng Yibai's appearance because the longing for her that flowed in his bones and blood had persisted for thousands of years.
The Ji clan, the emperor of mankind, was born with the ability to cast spells of time and space. Initially, this ability did not need to be acquired, as they could reverse time and space when they were infants.
This caused a lot of chaos and led to the premature death of many Ji family members.
For the sake of stability and some other secret considerations, the ancestor of the Ji family divided this bloodline power into two, and together with the then prime minister Jiang Shang, he ceded the other half of the bloodline into the bloodline of the Jiang family.
From then on, Ji and Jiang shared the world, were connected by blood, and shared honor and disgrace.
This is also the origin of the Bright Moon Palace. Only when the Ji family and the Jiang family are combined can there be a real bright moon.
But only Ji's moon was missing a corner, so it was called "Que Ying".
At first, Ji Zhao only had Feng Yibai in her heart, but the immortal world was watching her covetously, and she lacked the strength.
Any new power is of great importance to her, let alone the Jiang family who has shared half of the power of time and space spells.
"Although both clans possess extremely high talents in space-time spells, these are merely the scraps of this power. The true bloodline gift is only passed down between the Human Emperor and the Bright Moon Palace, generation after generation. The Human Emperor is destined by heaven. Once the Heaven has chosen the Human Emperor, that power will flow through his blood. Then, according to the ancient contract between Ji and Jiang, they will resonate and find the Jiang clan's recipient of the inheritance."
"This is probably the selection process for the Human Emperor and the Bright Moon Palace."
"Princess Mingyue was not the chosen Human Emperor. She was forced to ascend to that position by the times. Without the power of the Ji family's bloodline, she could only rely on her own talents and understanding to gradually become stronger."
"She thinks she can conquer the world, but she's running out of time."
From the time she ascended the throne to the coming of heavenly punishment, there were only seventeen short years in between, years that could be wasted by mortals, let alone immortal cultivators who were unaware of the fleeting passage of time.
She tried every possible means, but she could only cultivate a level of cultivation equivalent to that of a cultivator in the out-of-body stage three years before the divine punishment came.
This is not enough.
At this time, someone advised her to form a pact with her brother's Mingyue Palace to take back the power of the Jiang bloodline.
At first Ji Zhao was against it. Not to mention that she and Feng Yibai had already promised to spend their lives together, Ji Zhao didn't want Miss Jiang to be involved in these so-called righteousness of the world. She just wanted to be herself.
"Later, it was Feng Yibai who persuaded her. Feng Yibai was the only one in the world who could persuade her."
Ye Shuxing said this.
"Feng Yibai personally made a pair of love knots, gave one to the princess and kept one for himself. The princess then understood what he meant."
As long as your heart is like mine, I will never let you down. They already have a heart-to-heart bond, so there is no need for a heart-to-heart contract.
"Miss Jiang has also been reading classics since she was a child, and she understands the sufferings of ordinary people. She discussed it with the princess for an entire night, and in the end, the princess made the decision to have her heart cut out."
Too many pages have been lost in history books, and the ancestors have passed away and dispersed. Only fragments of bizarre anecdotes remain, and no one knows whether the two concubines of the time were a helpless act of the emperor, or a sincere heart. People simply imagine Ji Zhao to be dissolute.
Changxia suddenly felt a little ashamed of the private matters he had gossiped about.
"What happened next? How did they resist the immortal's punishment?"
"At that time, Cang Xuan Tian Dao had not been sealed like it is now, and He was also trying to save himself."
Ye Shuxing said so.
