[Chapter 403 Chapter 403 The Vicious Fake Goddess (14)]
"Miss, the people have been arranged." Lan Yin bowed.
After yesterday's contact with the princes and nobles, she carefully observed the servants' salute postures and finally found some tricks.
It looks much more realistic.
Yan Qing took off a hairpin from her head and inserted it into her bun: "You did a good job."
The girl lowered her head shyly, with even more joy in her eyes.
Tusang came in at this time and bowed respectfully: "Miss, Beiyou's people have been arranged in the east wing, and Nanjiang's people have been arranged in the west wing."
The east and west wings are where the villagers, who felt they had no way to repay her, spontaneously broke through the walls and expanded her house.
It just so happened that the courtyard was idle and did not encroach on anyone else's property, so she just let it go.
Lan Yin looked up and saw that Tusan was wearing a hollow mask. The key point was that the patterns were asymmetrical, which made him look extremely funny.
She couldn't help laughing out loud, but when she met Yan Qing's gaze, she covered her mouth, leaving only her shoulders shaking.
"Isn't it pretty?" Yan Qing frowned, "I think it's pretty good."
She was extremely confident in her craftsmanship. The more she looked at the mask on Tusan's face, the more satisfied she became.
Tusan smiled gently: "It looks good."
As long as it is made by Qingmei, it is the best thing in his eyes.
Lan Yin realized something and started to flatter her seriously: "I was wondering why this mask is so unique. It turns out that the young lady carved it herself. It is simply the most tasteful in the world."
Yan Qing couldn't help but smile: "You are the only one who can talk."
Without further ado, she went to meet the Beiyou royal family first.
During the few days of waiting for Cheng Xu's arrival, she did not stop seeing patients in the village, so those who stayed in the village and refused to leave naturally witnessed her superb medical skills.
Therefore, even though the always arrogant man had doubts in his heart about this young girl, he never showed it on his face.
Cheng Su's lustful eyes moved over her, and in his mind full of garbage, he had already imagined the scene of tying her up and torturing her.
Ever since his precious baby was cut off, he has gone in the direction of perversion and has no turning back. When he sees a beautiful girl, he has an even stronger desire to destroy her.
Only when Tusan's tall figure came forward did he retract his gaze.
He had seen the man's first-rate archery skills with his own eyes. Now that his men were all outside and they were not on his own territory, how could he, who was afraid of death, dare to be too presumptuous?
He pretended to be suave: "Goddess, can you cure any disease?"
Yan Qing glanced at him and said, "People who are extremely treacherous and evil should not be punished."
"You!" Realizing that he was angry because of the person he was talking to, Cheng Su put away his anger and said with a smile, "The goddess is right."
Cheng Jiang sneered at him: "Brother, do you have an incurable disease? That's why you came to the goddess for help?"
"I just want to ask the goddess to heal your useless brain." Cheng Su was not willing to be outdone.
Yan Qingke didn't have time to listen to their arguments, and said impatiently: "If there is nothing important, please go back."
The performance of the two gave him a preliminary impression of the bad relationship between the princes of the Beiyou royal family.
Cheng Xu hadn't even brought down these two incompetent people.
But think about it, it's not easy for that man to climb from a prince in the cold palace to where he is today.
If there is no power behind a position, it is not something that ordinary people can do to climb to a high position.
The representative from the Tantric sect observed her for a long time before he bowed and said, "The master has prepared a golden statue in our headquarters and has ordered us to invite the goddess into the temple."
Yan Qing didn't give him any face at all: "Gods don't enter filthy places."
They use the name of Buddhism but actually do obscene and brutal things.
It was really hard for her to be nice to that group of hypocritical people in the Tantric Buddhism.
The monk's face changed color, as if he was angry at her for being shameless.
"How dare you insult Buddhism!" He drew out the long whip from his waist and was about to attack, but a silver needle had already embedded in his forehead.
Yan Qing only made him unable to move, but did not take his life.
After all, she is a goddess now, how could she do something like killing someone in public?
Besides, now is not the time to completely offend the Tantric Buddhism.
However, given what happened today, after she enters the imperial city, that old bald donkey Wusa will definitely cause trouble.
Cheng Su and Cheng Jiang saw the people beside them frozen in place, and also felt her intimidation, so they spoke more cautiously.
She only said: "The Beast God sent me down the mountain, and I have already chosen the person who is destined to be my partner. You just need to go back and wait for news."
The two princes dared not utter a word, and the other nobles who came did not say much either.
After sending the people away, Yan Qing went to meet Nan Jiang's people again.
There were not many people from Nanjiang who came. Leading the group was a military general representing the royal family, followed by a Zen monk.
This Zen master was wearing a cassock and had a kind look, looking more upright than the previous one.
Yan Qing glanced at the people of Nanjiang Kingdom and continued to bring up the argument of destined people with little interest.
The general wanted to speak again but was stopped by the monk beside him.
The two of them bowed to the other nobles and then wisely left the courtyard.
After the guests left, she stroked her chin and thought, "The relationship between Zen Buddhism and the royal family of Nanjiang Kingdom seems to be particularly good."
How could she forget the great Zen Master Jiusheng Lianhua in the plot, Fanxi, who was hailed as the reincarnation of Buddha.
He and Mu Liancheng, the king of Nanjiang, are twins from the same mother.
It is said that the two have a strange twin connection.
She couldn't help but wonder again. The feeling was so strong, if one man had sex with a woman, wouldn't the other one feel the same way?
Isn't this just a disguised version of the two dragons playing with a pearl?
Feeling that her thoughts were going astray, she stopped immediately and concentrated on thinking about what her next move should be after entering Beiyou.
Cheng Su and Cheng Jiang took their men away, and Nan Jiang's large army also boarded the carriages back to the city.
But some people still stayed in the inconspicuous shabby houses in the neighboring villages.
Cheng Xu arrived at the main city first. The first thing he did when he returned was to go to the palace to ask for an audience with the old emperor.
"Your son greets you, father." He prostrated himself on the ground, his face filled with excitement.
The old emperor pushed the concubine in his arms away and told him not to be so polite.
He was more satisfied with this son than the others, because only Cheng Xu always looked at him with admiration since he was a child, as if he was some great hero.
Cheng Xu thanked him and raised his eyes with reverence in them: "Reporting to the Emperor, I have found the Goddess's trail."
He told the story of how he had seen Yan Qing in the village, and listed the miraculous skills of the goddess who could heal the dead.
He then presented the snowtail flowers that Qi Heng had brought to him to prove that what he said was true.
"I feel extremely sorry for not being able to preserve the things that the goddess bestowed upon Beiyou." He said ashamedly.
The snowtail flower had been crushed by him before, and the fragments he took back exuded a refreshing fragrance, and his original appearance could still be barely discerned.
He brought out the same excuse he had given to Cheng Su and Cheng Jiang, and explained that his two brothers seemed to have misunderstood him.
He lowered his head and said, "When I was in the audience, the goddess accidentally revealed that my father was the man of destiny chosen by the Beast God."
He raised his head slightly to reveal a piece of hair that had been broken off from his temples. He prostrated himself once again and said, "With the help of the goddess, father will surely become the ruler of the world."
The old emperor stood up excitedly, walked quickly to him and helped him up: "My son is very capable!"
Cheng Xu said humbly: "Thanks to the blessing of the true god, my father, how dare I take credit for it."
The emperor's eyes sparkled as he gave him the task of bringing the goddess into the imperial city.
Cheng Xu thanked him profusely before leaving.
As he walked out the door, his eyes lingered for a moment on an ink-colored jade seal on the table.
He knew very well that it was a birthday gift given to their father by his fourth younger brother when he was young.
In the emperor's heart, none of them, including the princes who had not yet grown up, could compare to the fourth prince.
After all, that was the only child left by the woman he loved most.
Cheng Xu did not feel any jealousy in his heart, he just felt fortunate for the death of his fourth brother.
If the fourth prince had not disappeared in the rainstorm, he would have been immediately named the crown prince after returning to the palace.
The so-called understanding of the people's sentiments on behalf of the emperor was actually the ladder to heaven paved for him by his father.
After receiving the task of receiving the goddess, he did not rush to arrange the reception, but waited for Cheng Su and Cheng Jiang to return to the city and discussed it with them.
They only claimed that this was a small test given to them by their father.
His actions made the two of them feel relaxed and at ease.
Cheng Su knocked on the table and said, "Since our father said that we must follow the highest standards, we must not be careless. However, as sons, one of us must go there in person to represent the royal family. Otherwise, it would be a great sin to neglect the goddess."
Cheng Jiang smiled gloomily: "Brother was frightened on the grassland, why don't you stay in the mansion and have a good rest? Let me and my third brother take care of the reception."
"It's just a small matter." Cheng Su frowned, "As the eldest brother, I have the responsibility to set an example. Third brother, what do you think?"
At the time, he just thought that a group of wild horses went crazy and attacked the camp, which gave him a bit of a scare.
The imperial physician who diagnosed him was trampled to death by a mad horse.
As for those who followed him, they were sent to remote military camps for training in the name of protecting the eldest prince.
Their families all depend on his mother's family for survival, and as the lips and teeth are interdependent, these people naturally dare not reveal even a single detail.
Therefore, the fact that he was bitten by a snake on his vitals did not cause any commotion at all.
But the second brother always mentioned this matter from time to time, and Cheng Su, who felt hurt, couldn't help but wonder in his heart whether he knew something.
Cheng Xu, who was mentioned, smiled softly: "It is up to the two brothers to decide on this matter."
It doesn't offend anyone, and it's a very fair way to deal with it.
Although he accepted the task in front of his father, he had no intention of picking up the person in person.
He didn't think it was a good job.
The Tantric Buddhism has been secretly cultivating a goddess for a long time. Now that such a person who is out of control has suddenly appeared, Wu Sa will definitely do something based on his temperament.
Moreover, with the prophecy of "the goddess coming to the world and the people coming to the world", the new king of Nanjiang Kingdom would not sit idly by and wait for death.
For him, giving up the initiative can not only avoid trouble, but also make him look good in front of his two royal brothers. Why not do it?
He only needed to prepare the banquet in the palace with all his heart, and when his father asked about it, he would casually act pitiful. Not only would his father not blame him, but he would also pity him for being overly kind.
If anything happens to his two brothers on the way to pick someone up, it won’t be his fault.
After all, in the emperor's mind, they were trying to steal the credit and took the job away from him.
In this way, he won the favor of his father and did not harm the harmony between his brothers.
Perhaps there was a message from the secret sect, and the one who finally led the royal guards to the border town was the eldest prince Cheng Su.
Eight white horses were in front, pulling a luxurious carriage that only the emperor could use, and there were hundreds of palace maids standing on both sides.
There were cavalry leading the way in front and infantry supporting the rear.
Cheng Su, who was at the front, dressed up carefully and looked quite handsome.
As soon as the news that the goddess would come to Beiyou spread, countless people were excited.
"Have you heard? Our Highness is going to take the goddess into the palace."
"It is said that His Majesty is the man of destiny chosen by the Beast God. He entrusted such an important task to His Highness. Does this mean..."
Perhaps because they were afraid of discussing sensitive topics, the voices of the people standing on the roadside to join in the fun gradually faded away.
However, Cheng Su was able to guess what they had not finished saying. It was simply that his father valued him and wanted to make him the crown prince.
He looked more and more proud, as if he had already imagined the scene of wearing a dragon robe.
However, what he didn't know was that when the team left the city, the topic of people's discussion had shifted away from him.
"You don't understand. I have a relative who lives in the village where the goddess settled." A man with shifty eyes carefully covered his mouth and said, "He told me that it was the Third Prince who dismounted his horse five miles away and walked barefoot into the village, which moved the goddess."
The others suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. No wonder the goddess chose Beiyou."
Cheng Xu stood in the teahouse, with his hands behind his back, at the window, watching the huge team leaving the city.
The scene of Yan Qing talking to him appeared in his mind. Thinking of the bright pearl that suddenly glowed in his hand, he murmured softly, "The Destiny One?"
Mandated by Heaven?
He smiled sarcastically.
Even if he could become the final winner, it would only be due to his calculations and hard work along the way.
He has always believed that man can conquer nature.
In Tantra.
The old monk who had met Yan Qing recreated the events of that day with exaggeration, puffing his beard and glaring in indignation.
Wu Sa straightened his robes, and Xia Sanbai's eyes narrowed into slits: "It seems that he is a capable person."
But no matter whether the other party is a real goddess or not, as long as she cannot be used by him, there will be a risk of her becoming a disaster.
"Arrange some people to ambush on the way back to the city." He said grimly, "This woman must not be allowed to stay."
The old monk said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty has sent quite a few guards."
Wu Sa sat cross-legged and closed his eyes: "Just create some chaos and spread some news."
They are used to putting the blame on others.
Whether it is a goddess or a disaster star who comes at that time, it will be up to them to decide.
“Your Majesty, the Dharma King is holy and wise.” The old monk laughed so hard that his beard and hair fluttered.
-----
Upon receiving the news that the person who came to greet him was not Cheng Xu, Yan Qing chuckled without any surprise.
"Sometimes being too cautious is a disease."
She curled her lips in disdain.
She told Tusang and Lan Yin to get ready, and when Cheng Su arrived, she would set the departure time when the moon was higher than overhead.
The auspicious time she divined blocked all Cheng Su's words.
Lan frowned in confusion and was about to ask, but when she thought of Yan Qing's previous reminder, she immediately shut her mouth.
Yan Qing raised his hand and rubbed her head: "Always give others a chance."
Lan Yin was confused, while Tusang seemed to be deep in thought.
