And for some unknown reason, Xia Qinghe went from being Xiao Qingyun's concubine to being the favorite concubine of Prince Ning.
Under her instigation, Prince Ning strongly supported the Queen Mother's faction.
For a time, power shifted, the court was in turmoil, and the ministers were in chaos.
At this time, the Quanrong led their troops to invade the border of the Dayan Dynasty.
The Quanrong cavalry were brave and skilled in riding and shooting, and the soldiers were vicious and cruel.
After arriving at the border of the Dayan Dynasty, they committed murder, looting, and raped women.
After this turmoil, the Dayan Dynasty was on the verge of collapse, and was caught in unprecedented difficulties due to internal and external troubles.
Faced with foreign invasion and rebellion in his own country, the regent Xiao Qingyun, who supported the young emperor, was exhausted and unable to cope.
Seeing the dynasty about to fall into unprecedented disaster, Duke Su stood up for his country and took his two children, Su Shisan and Su Xian, to fight on the battlefield...
Lingzhi didn't care about what was happening in the court, and after the fetus in her womb was born, she raised it carefully.
They say that time passes in the mountains, but it has been a thousand years in the world.
Six years have passed in a flash.
Her son Songguo is five years old this year.
On one side of the mountain, where the trees are lush, a bird occasionally flies by, but it seems to be frightened by something, flapping its wings and flying away as if escaping.
Below, I saw a five-year-old boy mobilizing his thoughts and the power in his body roaring out along his arms.
The boy has delicate features and a proud look on his face.
At this moment, accompanied by an inexplicable rhythm, he raised his hand and suddenly pointed towards a place not far away.
A bird that was flying by in panic suddenly fell down.
The boy smiled, looking smart and cute.
He ran over and bent down to pick up the bird that had fallen to the ground.
But just as his cute and adorable little face came closer, the bird flapped its wings twice, flew up again, and fled in panic.
Only one or two snow-white feathers were left, floating and falling to the ground.
The boy curled his lips. He didn't expect the bird to run away so quickly.
Suddenly, a loud shout broke the silence.
"Songguo! Didn't I tell you that this 'Enlarged Collection of Wise Sayings' was passed down by your ancestor, and if you can understand it, you will be able to understand the profound principles of the five thousand words?"
The voice was exasperated, "Why are you using it as a table leg again? This is the nth time."
Pine Cone glanced quickly over there and blinked his big, round, black eyes.
The voice sounded a little hollow: "Mother, I can recite this book by heart anyway. It just takes up space. As the ancestors said, this is called making the best use of things."
"Come on, the Grandmaster told you to study hard, but why haven't you been so diligent?"
Lingzhi lifted the corner of the table, took out the "Zeng Guang Xian Wen" with yellowed pages, carefully blew away the dust on it, and glared at Songguo.
"You're such a worry to me. Let's see what you'll do after I get down the mountain."
Pine Cone bared his teeth, and a pleasant, soft childish voice echoed everywhere.
"I've already made an agreement with Uncle Changsheng that he'll come up the mountain to cook for me after you leave. Uncle Changsheng's cooking is much better than yours."
The reluctance in Lingzhi's heart was shattered by his words.
She snorted, "After I go down the mountain, you must be well behaved and obedient. Don't let Uncle Changsheng and Grandmaster worry too much, otherwise I won't forgive you."
"Mother, I know, don't be angry."
Songguo rushed towards Lingzhi and gave her a warm hug.
Then he raised his head, his little face still a little chubby, and said, "I heard it's very dangerous down the mountain, mother, please be careful."
"Mother knows too."
Lingzhi looked at her son's stunningly handsome face, and a look of relief appeared in her eyes.
She smiled slightly, touched Songguo's head, and said earnestly: "You must practice hard and don't let your talent go to waste."
"Yes, I listen to my mother the most." Songguo nodded.
Lingzhi suddenly thought of something and said, "If you are bullied, go find Uncle Changsheng. He will take care of it for you. Got it?"
"Pinecone knows. Pinecone can take care of itself."
Pine Cone's round face looks cute and adorable, but the tone of his voice reveals boundless dominance.
Lingzhi continued, "Also, don't eat random things, or you might get an upset stomach..."
"Okay, Pinecone knows everything."
Songguo hugged Lingzhi's waist and promised: "Don't worry, mother, Songguo will be a good boy."
Looking at her son's tender face, Lingzhi still felt a little reluctant.
She reached out and stroked Songguo's face. After a while, she sighed and said, "Songguo, mother will be back soon."
"Mother, please don't rush back! You're finally going down the mountain, so let me have some peace and quiet."
The little person in his arms said with a smile.
"You little bastard, you can't wait for your mother to leave, right?"
Ganoderma lucidum began to tickle Pine Cone, and Pine Cone jumped away laughing.
The afterglow of the setting sun spread across the earth, and two figures, one big and one small, were chasing and laughing under the scattered shade of the trees, which was warm and beautiful.
…
The next day, Lingzhi and Bufan said goodbye to their master Lu Changshou in the main hall.
Lu Changshou sat in the center of the hall and said to Lingzhi:
"Lingzhi, don't blame Master for forcing you into the world."
"Master is about to ascend to heaven. Without anyone to guard the Tianshan Sect, I'm afraid chaos is about to break out!"
"I intend to pass the throne to your eldest senior brother, but he is troubled by worldly affairs and I am afraid he cannot sit at the helm of the sect with peace of mind."
"Now, it is up to you to go down the mountain in his place, take over his mission, quell the war, and save the world."
