Chapter 179: The Immortal Immortal Cultivator (9)
As Ding Yun began to live without food, people soon discovered her abnormalities one after another. For example, she was no longer seen eating snacks, and she asked the small kitchen not to prepare three meals for her, but only for her daughter.
She was rarely even seen drinking tea.
It's hard not to notice these strange phenomena.
After all, no one might say anything about not eating for one or two days, but after ten or eight days.
It's hard for everyone not to talk and be curious.
Especially those who are close to the body and wait on others.
So not long after, word spread that Immortal Master Jingci seemed to be really successful in cultivation and had already gone away from the grain.
And it soon reached the ears of the Queen Mother.
It just never caught her attention.
Because when Ding Yun told so many stories before, some people had already secretly felt that she had achieved great success in cultivation and could travel across the world as a soul. Now that there were more rumors about being able to escape grains, Queen Mother Zhang didn't pay attention at all.
Until the queen went to complain.
It was the 15th day of the month, and as soon as Queen Sun finished her greetings, she immediately took out a list and said:
"Mother, you can no longer indulge Immortal Master Jingci. She has gone too far now. Now the maids and eunuchs in the palace are privately saying that she has achieved success in cultivation and can live without grains. Isn't this nonsense to deceive the public?
If she hadn't deliberately made a gesture of ineditation.
How can eunuchs and maids be so legendary!"
"Also, Queen Mother, don't rush to defend Immortal Jingci. If that's all, I won't bother you. But the key point is that Immortal Jingci obviously has sources of supplies that are beyond my control.
.
After many investigations and records, I found that the ingredients sent to Chang'an Palace have indeed been much less recently.
It's basically just enough for the two princesses' daily consumption.
If Jingci is included, either the two princesses are hungry every day, or she can really live without grains, or she has the ability to secretly avoid me and get food from outside the palace. It is definitely impossible for her to be able to live without grains.
So she either let the princess starve to fulfill her reputation of being fast, or she got food from outside the palace.
The former treats the emperor's heir harshly, while the latter violates palace rules!
But the two princesses looked like they were not hungry.
So she 100% has some special channels to get some ingredients from outside the palace to fill her stomach.
I also hope that the Queen Mother will investigate and punish her severely and not cover her up!"
The Queen Mother was no longer in charge, so she didn't believe the rumors that she had not witnessed with her own eyes. However, Queen Sun was in charge of Feng Yin and originally controlled all expenses in the palace, so after the rumors spread that Ding Yun could live without food, she
He quickly conducted a detailed investigation of the corresponding ingredients that had been sent to Chang'an Palace during the recent period.
They even sent people to keep a close eye on him for a long time.
In the end, although there was no clear evidence that Ding Yun obtained food from outside the palace, she naturally felt that there was something special about Ding Yun since she did not believe that Ding Yun could live without food and the food sent to Chang'an Palace had indeed decreased a lot.
Channels to obtain food ingredients from outside the palace.
Corresponding evidence has not yet been collected.
I quickly chose a day to come over and complain.
It was still a complaint in front of other concubines.
The purpose is to make the matter bigger so that the Queen Mother has no way to cover it up. If possible, directly deal with it according to the palace rules. The best thing is to kill the deposed queen with a cane, the worst thing is to kill her, at least she has to be expelled from the palace to save money.
He dances around under her nose all day long, and just looking at it makes him upset.
"this……"
Empress Dowager Zhang's thoughts were similar to those of the Empress. She didn't think Ding Yun could really escape from grains, so she hesitated for a while and was still thinking about how to help Ding Yun.
It was at this time that Ding Yun came to tell a story to the Queen Mother according to a new practice that had been introduced in the past year or so.
Because it happened so many times, I didn’t even need to pass it on.
She walked straight in.
As soon as Queen Sun saw her, she immediately became excited. She pointed at Ding Yun and said loudly:
"Come on, let me catch her quickly!
No one is allowed to desecrate the inner courtyard of the palace..."
"Bold, who dares to attack the Ai family!"
Upon hearing this, Queen Mother Zhang immediately shouted to stop her. After listening to the story for such a long time, her feelings were definitely very deep, so she quickly decided that no matter what, she must save her abandoned daughter-in-law.
At best, I'll have to hammer it out in the future.
Otherwise, she would have no stories to listen to in the future.
"Mother, what do you mean? Is it possible for you to protect such sinners? How can a person who can evade me sneak food into the palace not be able to transport poison or even armored soldiers into the palace?
At that time, it would mean rebellion and regicide.
Moreover, she confuses the public with her evil words and allows the maids and eunuchs in her palace to spread the news that she has successfully cultivated and can live without grains. This is also a crime of deceiving the emperor. It is a crime of deceiving the emperor and deserves death!
Mother, please don’t listen to such a small story.
Ruined his reputation for life!"
In order to kill or get the queen who was already more popular than herself out of the palace, Empress Sun no longer cared about losing face. She really dared to talk nonsense, but Empress Dowager Zhang didn't believe what she said.
ah.
It was only then that Ding Yun finally understood why Empress Sun had asked people to come forward to arrest her as soon as she saw her. He also understood why no one had come to question her after nearly a month of abstinence.
Emotionally, no one believed that she could survive.
I even thought she was deceiving others with her lies.
After learning this, Ding Yun felt that he could no longer hide it. No one believed this. When did she have to go without food? So, before Queen Mother Zhang could refute for her, Ding Yun raised his hand and pointed.
Queen:
"Banned!"
Immediately, Empress Sun, who had been talking nonstop just now, seemed to become mute. She could only open her mouth but could not make any sound. Oh no, a mute could still make some sounds. Empress Sun could not make any sound at all now.
I can't speak, as if the sound has been muted all of a sudden.
The next second, Queen Sun, who found that she could not make a sound, immediately became frightened and continued to open her mouth.
Just open your mouth, but no sound comes out.
"The Queen Mother, the queen doesn't believe that Pindao can live without grains. I think it's because she hasn't seen it before. Now it just so happens that the queen can experience Pindao's forbidden spell."
As soon as Ding Yun finished speaking, Empress Sun immediately staggered back a few steps in fear. She must have pointed at Ding Yun and kept opening her mouth, while continuing to retreat in fear.
Even a fool can see this situation.
I'm afraid she really can't make a sound.
As for whether the two acted as double acts and cooperated deliberately, how could this be possible? A deposed queen and a current queen probably wanted each other to die. How could they deliberately cooperate? So this is definitely true.
At this point, Queen Mother Zhang finally believed that Ding Yun was really successful in cultivation, and hurried down and asked:
"Jingci, you have really achieved success in your cultivation.
Please tell me how you cultivated and what abilities you have now. Are you like He Xiangu in Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, or are you similar to the legendary female immortals such as Mazu? Can you live forever?"
As for the frightened queen beside her.
