Chapter 820: The Legend of the Phoenix Seal
After hearing what Nanny Chen said, the Empress Dowager opened her eyes and looked through the car window at the clear water and blue sky in the distance.
"What's the hardship? If I had no selfish motives, it would be fine, but—"
The Queen Mother sighed.
"I've practiced in front of the Buddha for many years, but I still can't see through it, can't let go, and can't get rid of worldly affairs. I know that the decline of the Bai family is inevitable, but I still can't resist my sister-in-law's pleading and want to give the Bai family a chance..."
"Fuya is a lucky child. If Shuan really catches her eye and she voluntarily marries into the Bai family, then even after my family passes away, with Fuya still around, the Bai family will surely have no worries..."
The Empress Dowager said this with a trace of sadness on her face.
"Your Highness, what are you talking about?" Nanny Chen said quickly, "You have always been in good health and have been taking health pills. You will surely live a long and healthy life like those immortals."
"Hehehe...those are nothing but nonsense. There is no such thing as eternal life in this world?" The Queen Mother smiled and said.
But his brows relaxed.
Nanny Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that the Empress Dowager was happy.
"Since Your Majesty is so optimistic about the young lady from the Su family, why not just grant them the marriage?" Nanny Chen said, "With Your Majesty's support, the Bai family will certainly not dare to treat the young lady from the Su family poorly. As long as the young lady from the Su family lives a happy and fulfilling life, even if the Third Prince doesn't understand Your Majesty right now, he will surely come to understand her in time."
After hearing what Nanny Chen said, the Empress Dowager shook her head and said, "It seems that you have followed me for so many years and inhaled the incense of Buddha in vain."
"I am stupid and naturally don't understand your Majesty's intentions." Nanny Chen said with a smile.
The Queen Mother said, "I can give the Bai family a chance, but that's all! Whether or not they have that blessing is their own business. I will never force a match, lest I go against Heaven's will!"
Nanny Chen showed a thoughtful expression and said, "Your Majesty, if you don't intervene, let's not talk about Young Master Shu'an for now. Just given the Third Prince's prejudice against the Bai family, there will definitely be no progress with Miss Shuqing. I'm afraid that the old lady of the Bai family's wish will eventually be unfulfilled..."
"Qing'er wasn't a good match for Jin'er!" The Empress Dowager said flatly, "The reason I agreed to let Qing'er stay with you was just to make them give up completely. I'm afraid they won't become so ignorant that they'll think I've stopped them from climbing the ladder of power!"
The Empress Dowager paused at this point, then added in a slightly cold tone, "If they do anything that brings disgrace upon our family in the future, it would be a disgrace to the Bai family's ancestors!"
Nanny Chen: “…”
It seems that the Queen Mother has many dissatisfactions with the Bai family.
The carriage rolled forward, and Phoenix Mountain could be seen in the distance.
"It is indeed a beautiful place with abundant natural resources." The Queen Mother sighed as she looked at the Phoenix Mountain in the distance.
Nanny Chen followed the Empress Dowager's gaze and said with a smile, "The name Phoenix Mountain is a good one, but I wonder if there are any phoenixes on this mountain?"
"Speaking of Phoenix, I did come across a thousand-year-old Sanskrit scripture in the Tianlong Temple's library," the Empress Dowager said thoughtfully. "It contained a Buddhist story about a great Buddhist monk and his experiences during the barbaric era..."
"It is said that during the barbaric era, the world was in chaos and the people were suffering. The Phoenix Goddess was born with a jade in her arms, helping the True Dragon Emperor to pacify the world and save the people from danger..."
"Later, the world was pacified, and the Phoenix Goddess was crowned Empress, ruling the country. The jade she held at birth was split into two pieces. The larger piece was carved into a jade seal, and the smaller piece was carved into a phoenix seal. The two pieces fit together perfectly, with the dragon's head and the phoenix's head nestling together..."
"After the Phoenix Goddess passed away, the emperor was heartbroken and shaved his head to become a monk. He eventually became a highly virtuous monk..."
After hearing what the Empress Dowager said, Nanny Chen said, "Isn't the Phoenix Seal a gold seal? How could it be made of jade? It seems that story isn't entirely true..."
"Things from the barbaric era are too far away to be verified." The Empress Dowager also shook her head and said, "After all, no one has ever seen a phoenix seal of the same material as the jade seal."
You know, the reason why the jade seal has been passed down from dynasty to dynasty is because the jade is of special quality and extremely hard, and it is impossible to imitate it.
“Chirp—chirp—”
As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, a few loud crane calls were heard in the distance.
Then, several cranes with pure white feathers flew over gracefully.
The Queen Mother's face was filled with shock.
She actually saw a crane!
And there are several of them!
Nanny Chen said excitedly, "Your Majesty, these cranes must have known you were coming and came to greet you! Look, they're flying over! They're landing... Oh my God, this is a warning from heaven, foretelling your long life and good fortune..."
Before Nanny Chen could finish her words, a crane landed on the ground, circled around the Empress Dowager's carriage, and flew off to the back.
Nanny Chen: “…”
The following words got stuck in my throat.
In the carriage behind, Tang Bao happily said to Princess Huaning: "Sister Ning, this is the two, three, four, five reds I told you about!"
After saying that, he asked Lin Enyi to stop the carriage, opened the door and jumped out.
When Princess Huaning saw this, she got off the carriage with a look of surprise on her face.
"Two, three, four, five, red!" Tang Bao shouted happily.
“Chirp…Chirp…”
“Chirp…Chirp…”
Several cranes surrounded Tang Bao and chirped affectionately.
This one rubs Tangbao with his head, and that one rubs Tangbao with his neck...
Tang Bao touched this and that, and the intimacy of reuniting with several cranes after a long separation was so intense that it was hard to describe.
Then, Tang Bao started to take out her little bag again.
"Come on, take one each..."
After saying that, he took out some red fruits from his small pocket and gave them to Ersansisiwuhong.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, a delicate little girl in red, surrounded by white cranes...
The little girl's clear laughter, the crane's loud cry, accompanied by the autumn breeze...
This scene makes people feel like they are in a fairyland.
Nanny Chen stared at Tang Bao and the cranes in amazement.
Even a fool can see the close relationship between these cranes and Tang Bao.
Nanny Chen suppressed her shock, secretly glanced at the Empress Dowager, and felt a little pain on her face.
At the same time, he was also worried that the Empress Dowager would lose face.
The Empress Dowager understood as soon as she saw Nanny Chen's look.
He couldn't help but smiled and said, "I'm not wrong. Tang Bao is indeed a child blessed by God."
After he finished speaking, he paused, a look of emotion on his face, and then he added: "Jin'er is right, Shu'an is indeed not worthy of Tang Bao. Tang Bao's kind of blessing is not something that ordinary people can bear. Only someone with great blessings and great opportunities can be worthy of Tang Bao!"
After hearing what the Empress Dowager said, Nanny Chen immediately nodded.
But I was wondering in my heart, if there are great blessings and great opportunities, can they compare to those dragon sons and phoenix grandsons?
