Chapter 923 Phoenix's Fate
“It’s you!”
Wu Zhao heard a long, lingering sigh, as if a gust of wind was blowing from the shores of the East China Sea all the way to the west of the Pamir Mountains. The sound echoed over a distance of thousands and tens of thousands of miles, lasting for a long time.
It penetrated into her mind, penetrated into her flesh and blood, and finally seeped into her soul.
She knew that the Imperial Master was talking to her.
She was deeply confused, and then puzzled. Was it me?
What?
I am just a woman of a ruined noble family. Why should I make the supreme imperial teacher of the Tang Dynasty so emotional?
The breeze outside the hall blew into the hall, and the clothes of everyone in the room were swaying in the wind. Luo Junwei looked at Wu Zhao in confusion as she knelt down as soon as she entered the room. Everyone was looking at her, a little confused, not knowing why Wu Zhao performed such a great ceremony but did not say a word.
It was the first time for Luo Junzhuo, Li Zhi and Li Mingda to see Wu Zhao. She was only of marriageable age, but she was already charming and attractive, with a voluptuous figure in the future. She was exactly the type of lady that best suited the aesthetic standards of the Tang Dynasty.
Luo Su was also looking at Wu Zhao. He was not looking at Wu Zhao's face. To him, that was just a pretty face. He saw into Wu Zhao's eyes at a glance. No one could pretend there.
Because what’s in your eyes is what’s in your heart.
What did Luo Su see?
Swords and lions!
Sharp sword!
The lion and tiger are quiet but choose their prey!
Such a look is rare even among men. Even among those generals who have fought on the battlefield, most of them only have the nature of jackals and wolves in their eyes, rather than the majestic lions and tigers.
Is this the woman mentioned in King Su’s prophecy?
What did Wu Shihuo, the daughter of Yingguogong, look like?
Luo Su began to recall this little man who was not very outstanding before, at least he had never been noticed by Luo Su. Wu Shigui was once a timber merchant. During the Sui Dynasty, he was in charge of the construction of the eastern capital Luoyang. However, he was eventually driven back to Bingzhou from Luoyang in disgrace because he offended Yang Su.
When he was in Bingzhou, he met Li Yuan, and the idea of becoming the second Lu Buwei was instantly ignited in his heart. He actively worked for Li Yuan and was eventually rewarded greatly, becoming one of Li Yuan's founding fathers.
He was eventually granted the title of Duke, ranking third in rank, a high-ranking official among the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers. He had completely turned his life around.
Luo Su had never had such a feeling before. He was born as the highest noble in Bang Zhou.
But he often thinks about how those who are struggling at the bottom of society get through the torturous hardships they encounter.
What kind of qualities does a person need to stand out from the crowd?
In despair and hardship, everyone will have extreme fear and unforgettable anxiety, just like magma burning the heart. Even for Li Shimin, when he knew that Li Yuan really would not make him the crown prince, didn't he have a trace of fear in his heart?
No way!
What can ultimately overcome these fears and anxieties are only better and more tenacious qualities, such as genuine self-confidence, sophisticated scheming and strategy, and the tenacity to never give up hope and not go with the flow in the face of any setbacks.
Luo Su likes Li Shimin because of these advantages of Li Shimin.
He didn't like Li Chengqian and Yang Guang because both of them had a very bad mentality. Mud cannot be propped up on a wall, at least not on the wall of the Emperor of Zhuxia.
The Luo family had served as regent and assisted five generations of kings, not to mention King Kang of Zhou and King Zhao of Zhou. History has proved that after the death of Ji Zhao and Luo Su, they were still able to manage a country well. King Yi of Zhou completely listened to Duke Xuan of Luo and ignored the advice of others. Duke Xuan of Luo was the actual king.
Duke Wen of Luo Xin assisted two generations of kings. Emperor Xiaohui of Han was actually a very opinionated man and a man of very firm character. His courage can be seen from the fact that he directly made Luo Xin the fake emperor in the end.
There is no need to mention Emperor Xiaowen of Han.
Each of these five generations of kings was not an ordinary person. What the Luo family did was to serve as a transition when the monarchy was unstable.
As for Li Chengqian, Luo Su believes that he does not have such a great character. Li Chengqian can cope with pressure in certain aspects, but cannot face pressure from all aspects.
king.
The king of the Xia.
The Zhuxia system constructed by Luo Su requires the highest personal qualities. It is much more difficult to dance on several eggs that may break at any time than being a prime minister or a general.
Luo Su stood up from the main seat, smiled at Luo Junwei as if in the spring breeze, and said, "Weiwei, help your friend up."
The sound of Luo Junwei's hairpin began to tinkle, and she kept shaking it as she helped Wu Zhao up. Wu Zhao came back to her senses completely, her body a little weak, and for a moment she didn't know whether she should stare at the imperial teacher, or lower her head and stare at her own white flesh.
Luo Su then instructed Luo Juncheng and the others, "I'm going to talk to Weiwei, you guys go out first."
After the few people left the hall, the perceptive Luo Junwei immediately realized that the old ancestor was very interested in Wu Zhao. Wu Zhao could also feel the national teacher's gaze lingering on her face.
"Mingkong, Mingxinzhinian, emptiness, clarity, do you believe in Buddhism?"
Luo Su's voice was not serious at all. On the contrary, it was like a breeze blowing through the flowers and grass, slightly slanting past them. After the wind passed, it was still quite cool. Wu Zhao said nervously, "I used to believe in it a little bit because of my parents, but after coming to Chang'an, I no longer believe in it."
Luo Su said with admiration: "It's better not to believe, Buddhism and Taoism are all useless things.
Weiwei once mentioned you to me, saying that you are beautiful and intelligent, and a rare female hero.
When I saw you today, I had a feeling that after climbing over mountains and crossing rivers, I thought there was no way out, but suddenly I found a new village. It's really like searching for something everywhere but finally finding it without any effort.
Life's encounters are so wonderful."
While Luo Su was sighing here, Luo Junwei and Wu Zhao fell into deeper confusion.
Especially Luo Junwei, she had almost never seen Luo Su behave like this.
She naturally didn't know that under the Emperor's Heaven, Luo Su was confident in everything he did, but above the Emperor's Heaven, that was the domain of the Su King.
This time when he came to the world, whether it was to revitalize the family or to rebuild the Xia Dynasty, it was what Luo Su wanted to do.
But only women can rule the world, this is the will of King Su. For Luo Su, all other things can be let go, but this one thing must be completed.
But Luo Junwei was blessed, her eyes suddenly lit up, with a look of surprise on her face, "Grandfather, Second Mother received the notice to enter the palace."
Wu Zhao's eyes also lit up with hope. If it was the imperial master, there would be nothing he couldn't do. Luo Su said, "You don't want to enter the palace?"
As soon as he said this, time seemed to freeze, and then a voice suddenly sounded in his mind. It was a gentle call from the nine heavens, "Ancestor Wengong."
Luo Su couldn't help but smile, and replied in a gentle voice: "Xiao Lingjun, what's wrong?"
Ji Lingjun's voice was vague and ethereal, like the clouds on the top of Tiandu Peak in Huangshan Mountain, "Ancestor, the woman in front of you has a trace of the life of the phoenix. She is the key person that the Suwang Ancestor mentioned.
But looking from the sky, the Phoenix Fate in her body is fluctuating. Any action of our Luo Clan can change her fate to a certain extent. Ancestor Wen Gong must be careful. "
The King Su wants a woman to rule the country, and he can't just pick any woman. This kind of thing must be done at the right time and by the right person. Li Xiuning is the right person, but not at the right time, so the most she can do is to set a precedent for women to participate in politics, so that there will be a precedent for women to participate in politics in the future.
Ji Lingjun is above the nine heavens, so she can indeed see a lot of things.
But what really shocked Luo Su was the words "Phoenix Destiny". After he lost communication with Ji Lingjun, he looked at Wu Zhao again.
The Phoenix Mandate was the destiny of Bang Zhou. After the fall of Bang Zhou, the Phoenix Mandate was taken away by Ji Zhao. The Phoenix on the Nine Cauldrons disappeared and merged into one with Ji Lingjun.
But now a woman with a trace of the destiny of the Phoenix has appeared. This is very magical. What is her relationship with Dabang Zhou, or will she do something related to the Phoenix in the future?
No wonder King Su said that Lingjun would know when that woman appeared. How could Ji Lingjun not feel that she was the one with the destiny of the Phoenix?
"It really is the appearance of a dragon's eyes and a phoenix's neck."
With dragon eyes and phoenix neck, she is the most noble person!
The legendary Emperor Fuxi had this kind of face, and Wu Zhao actually had this kind of face. In the Tang Dynasty, who was the last person with such a noble face?
The appearance of dragon and phoenix, the appearance of sun and sky!
The current emperor Li Shimin!
Almost immediately, Luo Su's mind came back to the same thought he had when he faced Li Shimin before, which was to train Wu Zhao.
Compared to Li Shimin, who had already achieved great success long ago, Wu Zhao was the one who really needed to be tempered.
There is tremendous energy in her heart, just like a beautiful jade, which is now wrapped by the stone on the outside. All Luo Su has to do is to polish this unpolished jade carefully.
As for what she can achieve in the future, whether she will become the heroine herself or become the pavement for other heroines, that is up to fate.
Yes.
Even though Wu Zhao had the destiny of a phoenix, was a key figure in Su Wang's prophecy, and had the appearance of a dragon's eyes and a phoenix's neck, Luo Su still would not make a final conclusion about her future.
Just as he thought Li Shimin was extremely outstanding at the beginning, he would not think that Li Shimin would definitely win.
Because there are countless accidents in this world.
Illness, short life, assassination, each of these would have changed the course of history.
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly, and Luo Junwei's heart suddenly started to be alarmed, because the ancestor was about to do something serious.
As soon as the ancestor started doing something serious, she immediately felt a chill.
"Wu Erniang."
Luo Su's voice sounded softly, like a breeze blowing across the lake, the ripples slowly spread out, and a trace of cool water vapor followed the wind and slowly seeped into the heart.
In Wu Zhao's fifteen years of life, today is definitely the most unforgettable day for her.
She never thought that one day she would be able to hear these words about herself from the mouth of the national teacher.
"National Master."
She bowed her head slightly.
