Chapter 3 Descending the Family
In the quiet room, the incense burner is lit, and the fragrance fills the high house.
The pretty woman with long hair and quietly lying on the bed was staring blankly at the window ridge.
Outside the window, there are thousands of bamboo sticks covering the shadows, and the breeze brings a refreshing breeze.
The cicadas sing and the birds sing endlessly, making the mountains more and more peaceful.
One month has passed after giving birth, and for Saori, the pain during delivery is vividly remembered.
After overcoming this difficult time of rebirth and death, her character was also a tempering.
Uesugi Saori is quiet and has a lot of maternal brilliance on her beautiful face.
"Today will determine the fate and future of the two children."
She knew very well that this child had little chance of winning.
The Uesugi family, also known as her mother's family, is just a commoner and his ancestors do not have much background.
Just because of the uproar, my grandfather seized the opportunity to turn from business to politics and became a member of parliament.
Only in her generation can she be regarded as the eldest lady of the county councillor's family.
Because of his spiritual qualifications, he was selected as one of the mother bodies and sent it to the Faqing Yuan’s home as a transactional commodity.
During this period, there is no emotion, everything is for profit only.
The child has been born, and she has only met once.
Until now, in this spacious, luxurious but cold villa, the only thing that can make her worry about is that child.
"Even if you are apart, don't demote it to the worst... It's better to be Qingqiuyuan, it must be Qingqiuyuan."
The slender fingers of the green onion crossed each other and pressed against her forehead. She prayed to the god she knew:
"I am the great power of the night. Please protect my son from falling into a miserable end. Oh... I already have only one relative!"
"If he was demoted too far, maybe I wouldn't have a chance to see him again."
As soon as I looked up, two lines of clear tears burst out from my eyes.
This seemingly peaceful prosperous era, shadows are still active under the superficial prosperity.
Monsters, gods, troubled, supernatural... Since ancient times, human civilization has been with us, and has never been far away.
The Yin and Yang Dao have risen and fallen several times, but even when it is in decline, it can still maintain its status, all because of this.
Onmyoji really needs to retire from demons and experience all kinds of supernatural and mysterious events personally.
The Faqing Yuan family has a respectable status, a long and powerful inheritance, and the direct lineage is also protected by the divine power of ancestors, which is generally very safe.
The separation of families is just a matter of waiting. The Qingqiuyuan family, which is close to the direct descendants, can also be divided into many shades of Yuze. It is hard to say that relatively remote families are very difficult to say.
Since she married here, she has heard obituaries more than a dozen times.
There are ordinary people and Onmyoji.
Coincidentally, all those who died were Onmyoji from remote families.
As the daughter of a parliamentarian's family, even if she doesn't like politics, she is not a novice.
She also has her own guesses about how the symbiotic relationship between Yin and Yang Tao and local monsters and gods were formed, but this is not the most important.
More importantly, the main family will always constantly attack the too-estranged division.
There will be "accidents" several times a year in peacetime, and it is not really an accident.
The interests of the division of the family are not exactly the same as the interests of the master, just as the tacit understanding between the monster and the Onmyoji are not always effective.
Once you encounter a monster who is "unruly", you have to fight with real skills.
Some remote family divisions will lose many elites in the process.
This type of division is not safe.
The separation of the family is similar to the so-called descending of the royal family.
Because the glory of the Qing Court was just like the throne, it was only passed down from generation to generation.
No matter how strong the other children have, they will not be able to share the benefits. They must hold a family division ceremony to lower the family division.
Once demoted to a remote family, it is equivalent to becoming a worthless abandoned child. Not to mention the future bleak, I am afraid that there will be life.
"God, have mercy on me, I really have no choice..."
...
The Fellow Joseon-Yue, standing in front of the tall Torii, stopped and spoke.
"Just here."
He was wearing a robe with gold, silver and silk threads, surrounded by hundreds of people, and showed a majestic temperament that had been around for a long time.
"Ah, but it's not yet before God..."
Some retainers hesitated.
"I have already crossed Torii and entered His Highness's divine realm, and it's the same here."
The Qingyuan continued:
"Besides, the shrine has been around for hundreds of years, and it was swept by a typhoon at the end of last year. Some houses have collapsed. It has not been rectified yet, so it is ugly if it goes up. It is better to be here."
"I think my ancestors will understand it."
“Yes, as you wish.”
I dare not say anything more, a few retainers commanded the servants wearing dresses to arrange sacrifices according to etiquette rules.
After simply worshiping the ancestor gods, the group of people held the family tree and ritual vessels and announced the separation of the family heads.
The two children were brought to me by the maid. After a brief silence, Faqing Yuanyue personally took the baby girl, hugged her in her arms, and stared at her for a moment.
The field was silent, and everyone was waiting silently.
After a while, he smiled and nodded at the baby girl.
"This child is called Faqing Yuan Yashi, my heir."
The retainers who were holding pens around him immediately wrote their names on the family tree.
Everyone present had many curses and immediately saw strange phenomena.
The water above Torii is shimmering, reflecting the place of light similar to the mountain shrine.
A large area of transparent water light, dense, hanging from above, covering the entire baby girl, forming a thick cloud coat of more than one foot.
After counting breaths, it disappeared.
"It is worthy of being a well-known family with a profound background. The four Faqing Yuan families, just the declared heirs, can have such beauty."
While watching the ceremony, some people were envious and jealous, and whispered.
"Ah, with such a powerful shelter, even a big monster would not dare to provoke him easily."
For Onmyoji, who always needs to deal with monsters, death and injury are inevitable, and with this powerful blessing, many bad luck can be avoided.
"It's unbelievable that the power given by this is close to the eighth one!"
Onmyoji, who has a small family, can already feel incredible.
"Even the Great Onmyoji, she is only the eighth one - she is just a baby!"
This was almost half-roared.
Fortunately, this person did not lose his mind, and the audience was a little far away, so this sentence had not been heard yet.
The peers around him pulled them hard twice before the person realized that he was shocked.
He was completely stimulated and lost his mind.
"Some people who stand at the top of their lives are unenviable!"
Some people have a quiet tone, but their mentality is relatively balanced.
"It's nothing if you are born and given eight titles. Isn't it even more valuable to be born in the general's home?"
"But that's different. After all, Yin and Yang Tao is practiced by oneself-"
