The first thousand one hundred and seventy-three chapters
The great monk seemed to be startled, scratched his head anxiously, looked at Li Luo and said: "This is none of the monk's business. The monk just met with the prince and his wife, said a few words, and did not take action against the prince.
I have never insulted my empress. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them."
Li Chengwen was so angry that his eyesight went dark. No wonder Li Luo was so calm and composed. His feelings had long been colluded with this thief.
In fact, King Mu had wronged Li Luo. To this day, Li Luo did not know that the great monk would come to Zhuocheng with the Taoist Tianzong.
As for Li Luo's calm appearance, that's because even if the great monk told the truth, Li Luo would have a response. Otherwise, how could he have brought this secret about the world in Cuikuo Mountain to himself.
Concubine Yun smiled sweetly and said: "Master cares about the world. Although he stopped my concubine and His Highness Ninth Prince, he was polite and courteous. It was just a lesson to His Highness Ninth Prince. He asked His Highness Ninth Prince to take benefiting the common people as his own responsibility. Look at what His Highness Ninth Prince has done in these years.
Naturally, I have listened to the master’s teachings.”
Emperor Wanlong's expression calmed down a little after hearing this, otherwise the Dagan court would not be able to let go of the crime of intercepting Li Luo and Concubine Yun.
Emperor Wanlong frowned and said, "But weren't there other things that happened back then?"
"Oh, that's someone else." Concubine Yun responded casually without saying anything more.
Emperor Wanlong suppressed his doubts. When Li Luo and Concubine Yun were in danger in Cuikuo Mountain, it was still an unsolved case. He did not know who was behind the murder of Concubine Yun or Li Luo.
However, Li Luo and Concubine Yun, who were involved, both had no intention of pursuing the matter, which made people confused and fueled the rumors that they were having an affair.
"Uncle, what happened back then was a misunderstanding and had nothing to do with Concubine Yun. Uncle, please don't listen to these rumors."
Li Chengwen snorted. If he persisted in his opinion at this time, he would really be breaking up with Emperor Wanlong. Even if Li Chengwen had the Queen Mother as his backer, such a situation would be really undesirable.
The prince and his ministers saw that Li Chengwen was speechless, and no one dared to say anything. However, Li Luo had something to say. If the truth about Concubine Yun was really found out, it would not be too late to depose her.
"Since the imperial brother wants to make the imperial concubine his queen, I have nothing to say. It's just that the imperial concubine Yun has no heirs yet, so it doesn't seem appropriate."
"What the Shepherd King said is that I am not pregnant with a dragon seed because I am not blessed with enough luck. If I still do not give birth to an heir for Your Majesty within three years, I will become a nun on my own without having to worry about it."
Concubine Yun responded decisively.
King Mu felt a chill in his heart. This time he had completely offended Concubine Yun. There would be no room for change between the two.
As for whether Concubine Yun will be able to give birth to an heir for Emperor Wanlong within three years, let's not talk about it. The most important thing is to save her own throne and life.
"Okay." Emperor Wanlong shouted and said, "I have made up my mind. When I come, I will immediately draw up an edict to announce to the world. I will make Concubine Yun my queen, give her the title Yun, and everyone in the world will celebrate."
The ministers looked at each other in shock. This time, no one needed to take the lead. They all bowed down and saluted, shouting long live the mountain.
Li Luo had to kneel down, but this time it was Emperor Wanlong who helped Li Luo up with his own hands. He ignored the people around him and laughed and said: "After one month, I will grant a general amnesty to the world and grant Concubine Yun a phoenix crown and harem. Please give me three thanks for your hard work."
The ceremony of giving birth to a real person as Concubine Yun.
Xuanlou, you must not be lazy, you must come."
"Xuan Lou will obey the imperial edict and do his best."
"Haha, what a lazy boy." Emperor Wanlong laughed heartily.
Concubine Yun also glared at Li Luo angrily, and stared at Li Luo regardless of the criticism from others.
Li Luo coughed lightly and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, something has happened here. The people who came to watch the ceremony are all powerful men from the world, so we can't wait any longer."
Emperor Wanlong nodded and said: "Xuanlou, please thank them well for me. Not only have you witnessed the grand event of the unification of Taoism, but it also coincides with a happy event in the palace. It is because we are destined to be together with Da Gan, so we give you a lot of gifts. Don't ask for it."
He has lost the magnanimity of the Dagan court."
"I obey the order." Li Luo accepted the order in a deep voice, turned around and looked at the heroes in the field, and said with confidence, "Thank you so much for coming to watch the ceremony. The Dagan court will bear it in mind. After tonight, Dagan respects the Taoist family.
For all the disciples and hundreds of schools of thought, Sansheng Zhenren will be the master of the country, and Concubine Yun will be the queen. I will tell the world that the whole world is happy, the country is peaceful and the people are safe. Tomorrow, the junior Li Luo will pay tribute to you all on behalf of the emperor and hold a banquet on the 33rd floor of Zhuocheng.
, to wash away the dust of all the heroes, and to present a small gift to express the emperor's gratitude. Li Luo is waiting for you all."
After finishing speaking, Li Luo paused slightly and issued an order: "General Ling."
Ling Gumian was startled, and then answered when he heard the voice: "The end will be here."
"Send the officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army to send all the heroes away from the palace. I will send you invitations tomorrow morning. Be sure to send them all."
"The general will obey the order."
Li Luo turned sideways to let Emperor Wanlong stand behind him. Emperor Wanlong laughed loudly and said: "There will be a banquet to entertain all the heroes tomorrow. Although I really want to go, it is inconvenient for me to go out. Going out to the palace will make everyone aware of it.
It is not beautiful to mobilize troops and mobilize a large number of people; besides, if I go, I will have to act like an emperor everywhere, and the heroes will certainly not be able to enjoy themselves to the fullest. I will have no choice but to neglect you, and let some of my princes give you a toast for me tomorrow.
"
Emperor Wanlong's polite words, whether they were true or false, were greatly appreciated by everyone, and they all saluted and thanked him.
"Haha, then I will go back with Concubine Yun first. Xuanlou, you can deal with the aftermath here."
"I accept the decree."
Emperor Wanlong hugged Concubine Yun, surrounded by a group of guards, and walked towards the palace talking and laughing. As Emperor Wanlong left, he took away more than half of the people in front of Changming Palace, including Li Xuanying and Li Xuanze.
They left one after another, and only Li Xuanci, Princess Wuyang, and Ling Gumian stayed here.
Before leaving, Concubine Yun glanced back. Through the gap in the crowd, not far away, Li Luo was talking to Taoist Sansheng. She probably didn't have time to pay attention to Concubine Yun's eyes behind her.
Li Luo said goodbye to the heroes of the world one by one, doing the etiquette of the world, without the arrogance of a prince or grandson.
"Your Majesty, aren't you afraid of raising tigers?" Yan Xin stopped and asked when passing by Li Luo.
Li Luo took a distant look at the Changming Palace, which looked a bit vicissitudes of life, and replied calmly: "There are a lot of wolves around me, one more is not too much, one less is not too little, just let her be. One more tiger.
, these packs of wolves are more or less stable, I can be regarded as a fox pretending to be a tiger."
"People don't want to hurt tigers, but tigers can hurt people's hearts. Using tigers to suppress evil wolves is not a long-term solution. The prince will have more things to worry about in the future. Moreover," Yan Xin paused slightly and glanced at the white jade platform.
The unusually quiet Sansheng Taoist smiled lightly and said, "There's more than one."
"It is difficult to quench the thirst of the nearer by water far away. Let us solve the situation at hand first."
