The young scholar didn't dare to look up and was about to put his face to the ground.
But in his heart, he was filled with panic and surprise. He never expected that the person staying in the imperial study was not the current emperor! But the queen, Zhangsun Wugou.
Suddenly, many ancient celebrities and their experiences in the harem flashed through his mind.
Combined with the fact that he and Zijin Taoist had joined forces to kill the Buddhist master! For a moment, he felt a chill down his spine! His body couldn't stop shaking.
"Empress, I have already left the Prince's Mansion, but I will never forget the kindness of the Prince and the Empress. I will also never forget the deep friendship I had with the Prince as a student for many years."
He tried his best to control his panic and make his words clear. He wanted to cherish every opportunity to say a word! It was very likely that the queen had invited him here with murderous intent.
"Oh, it seems that you are a sentimental person. I wonder if you are married now, and if you still have parents at home?"
The scholar's eyes twitched. "My queen, I have never been married! And I entered the palace precisely because I was abandoned! Therefore, I am not sure whether my parents are still alive."
The Taoist priest glanced at him kneeling there and said, "Empress, this mortal is not lying! But in my sect, there are masters who can trace back to the source! It is not difficult to find out his true identity."
Hearing this, the young scholar knelt on the ground, clenching his hands tightly! He even made a creaking sound of grinding his teeth, and his pupils turned red with humiliation!
Hearing this, the old Taoist snorted disdainfully: "Scholar, don't be ungrateful. Your achievements today are all thanks to the help of the Queen. This Taoist is willing to help you find your lost parents, are you still unwilling?"
When the scholar heard this, anger surged to his head, making his forehead hot! If he hadn't cared about his own life, he would probably have jumped up and fought with the Taoist priest to the death.
He was not a heartless and ungrateful person. As the saying goes, one's body and hair are all given by one's parents! Even though he was ruthlessly abandoned back then, if he could find his parents now, he would never refuse to recognize them.
But, we have to make sure his parents are real!
It was obvious that he was entering the palace today not only to be tied up with a wife! Even who his parents were had been decided by the old Taoist priest.
If he dared to show any dissatisfaction, the Queen who was sitting on the steps behind the curtain would never allow him to continue living in this world with such threats.
At this moment, he couldn't help feeling bitter in his heart!
"Scholar, do you have any objections?" The gentle voice came again: "Don't worry, I will identify it for you! And the wife I promise you is also the most beautiful and elegant person in my Changsun clan... In this way, you will be a very ambitious young man in my Changsun clan! In the future, you will no longer be alone in the Tang Dynasty, you understand."
The voice was as gentle as water, but it was like a cold knife, stabbing fiercely into the scholar's chest!
If he had not written the Record of a Mortal's Cultivation to Immortality before, and had not fought against the tribulations of the three realms together with the Purple Gold Taoist! He was just an ordinary person, and if he could be so valued by Empress Changsun, he would have been excited and grateful.
But now, just as he had seen before! In order to cut off the chance of the human race changing their destiny, the Guanyin of the South China Sea actually sent an extremely powerful person to kill him! This made him see through the hypocrisy of Buddhism.
And today, he had just escaped from danger, but he was forced into a marriage again. Even his parents were chosen for him!
If he still didn't understand that this was to put shackles on him, drag him into the Changsun family, and make him a puppet! Then he would never have been able to write the popular Records of a Mortal's Cultivation to Immortality through the narration of Zijin Taoist!
But, he knew all this!
The old Taoist priest next to him had a teasing look on his face, looking at him as if he was a joke!
As for the queen behind the curtain, she did not care about the world and have compassion for the people as he imagined!
On the contrary, they are more adept at forming cliques and gathering helpers for their own use.
"I, the common people, obey the Queen's orders!" He prostrated himself on the ground! But his eyes were burning with rage! His heart, which was originally full of compassion and passion, became cold, like a stone.
"Yes! Very good... Let this immortal master take you to meet your parents. As for your wife, I will talk to His Majesty and then I will hold a grand wedding for you."
The old Taoist priest clasped his fists and bowed slightly: "Empress, I will help him find suitable parents."
He emphasized the word "suitable" very strongly!
The sarcasm and ridicule contained in it are not concealed at all.
The old Taoist priest stepped forward, grabbed the scholar's shoulders and lifted him up from the ground!
Then he took big steps, as if he was carrying a little chicken, and walked out of the palace gate, striding through the long palace square with big steps and a very arrogant attitude.
At this moment, Taoist Zijin and Li Chengqian hurried to the imperial study!
I saw this scene from a distance.
"What's going on? Didn't you send the scholar back?" Taoist Zijin was shocked and grabbed Li Chengqian's shoulder: "Is this how you sent him back?"
Li Chengqian frowned slightly: "This old Taoist priest once appeared in the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony. However, he does not have a token to travel freely in the palace! Who gave him the courage?"
Li Chengqian was very angry. He had already learned from Zijin Daoren that this young scholar had obtained the Immortal Sword and became a disciple of the saint.
This is a saint. Even though the saint is far away from the Three Realms and in the chaos! He still has a strong control over the Three Realms.
Now that the human race is facing all kinds of hardships, they need such a strong person as a back-up the most! Moreover, this saint is not like the Buddhist sect, who wants to be above the human race! He just can't bear to see the chaos in the three realms, so he trains a disciple to walk in the world on his behalf.
But now, this saint's disciple was treated so rudely! As you can imagine, this would inevitably lead to many misunderstandings.
"Stop! You old bastard, who gave you the courage to move around the palace at will?" Li Chengqian did not show any face at all. He took a step forward and appeared behind the old Taoist priest!
He even condensed his own spiritual energy and covered his fist with a powerful blow! He smashed heavily towards the old Taoist's back.
When Taoist Zijin saw this, he immediately stopped his intention of raising his foot forward.
