Chapter 818： The Great Elder comes to Beijing

The taverns and teahouses in the capital are always lively, which is a good place to listen to the news.

An old woman sits in a corner of the tea shed facing the street, listening to the chatters of tea shoppers in silence.

Those who come to this kind of tea shed are often not well-off, mostly flat-headed people, and such people are even more unscrupulous when talking about rumors.

"Tsk tusk, there is still no rain at this time, and the crops will die if it continues like this. Don't think about any harvest."

"No, I don't know how many people will starve to death at that time, it will be sad!"

"Have you heard that the drought is all because of the princess-"

The tip of the old woman's ears moved slightly.

Many people laughed at the man one after another: "Who hasn't heard of this, but he is a high-ranking princess, we can't help it."

"We can't help it, can't the nobles can't help it? Can't we all suffer because of a woman, right?"

...

The old woman put down two copper plates on the long table, stood up and left without expression.

The rumors spread to this day are related to the stability of the people and cannot be easily broken. The status of the prince may not be guaranteed.

Not long ago, Dongping Bofu’s flowers were blooming with brocade, and the fire was cooking oil. It was very proud of the scenery for a while, and I don’t know how many people envied it. Now that the prince concubine got into trouble, coupled with the accidental ruin of her respected grandson's official career, Mrs. Feng suddenly fell ill under the double blow after hearing some cool words.

Jiang Si used this reason to ask the queen for instructions back to Dongping Bofu to visit his grandmother.

The queen sighed slightly: "Visiting grandmother is due to filial piety, but you are on the cusp of the storm. You must be careful when you leave the palace."

"Don't worry, my daughter-in-law understands."

"then you go."

Jiang seemed to recede outward.

The queen moved the corners of her mouth and shouted again: "Prince Princess."

Jiang Si bends her knees slightly with a calm face: "What else do you have to tell the queen?"

The queen smiled: "There is no order, just tell you not to be too stressed, your father will not be shaken by some rumors, the difficulties will always pass."

Entering this deep pool-like palace, who has never encountered difficulties, she believes that this storm will not crush the prince.

Jiang Si's heart is slightly warm: "Thank you, Queen Mother for comfort."

After going out of the palace to see Mrs. Feng, Jiang Si met with the old woman under proper arrangements.

The old woman looked at Jiang Si carefully, and sighed for a long time: "I guessed that you might be the real saint of my Wu Miao, but I just can't figure out why the saint came from Da Zhou. Now knowing that you have the blood of Wu Miao, everything suddenly becomes clear. Wumiao finally has a saint."

Speaking of the last, it is hard to hide emotion.

Although Jiang Si had promised that Wu Miao would appear as a saint when he needed it, it was an exchange of interests and cooperation, which was completely different from now.

Jiang seems to have the blood of Wumiao, which proves that the sky will not die and the inheritance of the saint is unbroken.

It can be said that the great elder was truly relieved.

"I didn't expect the Grand Elder to come personally."

"Of course I will come over for such an important matter. I just want to arrange the affairs of the family properly, which will delay a little time."

Holding a cup of clear tea, Jiang Si asked calmly, "The elders have heard of the people in the capital, right?"

The elder's complexion changed slightly, and he nodded slowly.

"The Queen Mother wants to put me to death. I don't know how the Great Elder plans to take back this chess piece?"

The elder had a deep gaze, and raised his eyebrows and asked, "The saint is sure this is from her handwriting?"

Jiang Si sneered: "This is the end of the matter, does the Great Elder still have extravagant hopes?"

The great elder was so smiled that he couldn't get off the stage, rubbing the jasper ring on his thumb, his expression gradually condensed, and he said: "The chess piece hurts the saint, of course it will be destroyed."

Jiang Si pondered for a moment, and asked her doubts: "This chess piece is so important and it takes so long. Does the great elder have no control over her?"

"She once swore an oath to the true god. The saint has never really lived in Umiao. I am afraid I don't understand what it means to the true **** to swear to the true god."

Jiang seemed not to answer.

She lived in Wumiao for several years in her previous life. She understands the devotion of the Wumiao people to the true god, and the **** of belief is strong.

For example, if a foreigner speaks insult to the saint, he can be beaten to death by the angry Wumiao, but if a foreigner scolds the Prince of the Great Zhou, most of the people of Great Zhou will pretend not to hear it.

In Umiao, the saints and the great elders are the symbols of the gods, not to mention the respect for the true god.

The elder sighed: "Unexpectedly, within a few decades, she would have left the true **** behind."

Jiang Si suddenly felt that the elder was a little naive.

This kind of innocence is probably related to the cultivation method of the Wumiao Saintess.

Talented girls were selected to practice hard since they were young, and the one who stood out became the saint. From then on, everyone respected them, and when they became the elders, they would say nothing more and become the master of the destiny of the family.

There will be intrigues, but it's still far worse than those of the Da Zhou royal family, who made a **** path.

"For decades, there are thousands of miles in the Great Zhou Dynasty." Jiang Si said softly.

The elder's complexion changed slightly, and he sighed, "Besides, there is still a Gu in her body, but I heard Elder Hua said that the gu worm in her body has not been removed when..."

Jiang Si's eyes flashed slightly.

Is it true that the elder is talking about the mother and son connecting the heart in the queen dowager's body? She seems to have removed this gu worm...

But at that time, she could perceive that the mother and child's Heart Gu parasitized into the queen dowager's body for a short time, never for decades.

"That said, there is no way?" Jiang Si kicked the ball back.

It is only natural that whoever causes trouble will contribute.

But Jiang Si knew it was not that easy, after all, Wu Miao couldn't get himself into it.

"There is a way."

"Listen thoroughly."

After listening to the great elder, Jiang Si hesitated for a while: "In this way, the flower elder might be—"

The elder said with no expression on his face: "It is an honor for Elder Hua to solve the trouble for the saint. Elder Hua will definitely die without regret."

Jiang Si's mouth twitched.

She can understand the spirit of the Wumiao people giving everything for the saint, but after all, she is not a native of the Wumiao people, and she can't ignore his life and death in order to solve the trouble.

"Other than that, there is no better way." Seeing Jiang hesitated, the elder reminded calmly.

She was a little puzzled that Jiang Si would hesitate for the sake of Elder Hua, but she felt a lot more at ease.

A saint who can take care of the lives of the Wumiao people should be reliable.

Jiang Si finally nodded: "Let's do it, I will try to save Elder Hua's life. If Elder Hua has a case, I will take good care of her granddaughter."

Outside the screen, the elder Hua burst into tears when he heard this.

To die for the saint, to die without regrets, and to hear the saint say so is even more worrying.

"I think the current situation is very unfavorable for the saint, this matter needs to be as soon as possible."

Jiang Si smiled disapprovingly: "Don't worry, it's not time yet, I will solve the current trouble."
