What's worse is that when the former Wangxian left, her son Tian Jian succeeded to the throne, and he was a submissive person who had no opinion all day long.
In fact, for a woman with a strong desire for power, Tian Jian's mediocre appearance is exactly what the Queen Mother would like to see.
If you want to change to a stubborn monarch who is only thinking of revenge, there is no guarantee that the Queen Mother will drive him out of power regardless of the relationship between mother and child.
After all, the Qi State at that time was already riddled with holes and could no longer stand the toss.
But for some reason, the Empress Dowager, who is now nearly seventy years old, hopes that her son will be more competitive, and that she will be able to shoulder the fate of Daqi in a hundred years.
It is a contradiction.
The Queen Mother sighed secretly, and then said slowly: "Although I, Da Qi, have regained some vitality in the past few years, I can't be easily tossed about."
"The Five Kingdoms want to attack Qin, so let them go, just to buy some time for me, Daqi, to recuperate."
"Yes, I would like to obey my mother's order."
Tian Jian bowed and bowed, and obediently agreed, but a complex look flashed under his eyes.
While the two were talking, a servant came to report.
"Report to the Empress Dowager and Your Majesty that a new batch of picking girls will enter the palace today. Your Majesty will personally select them."
Tian Jian was overjoyed when he heard this.
"Okay, okay, the boy won't disturb the queen mother here, and the boy will leave!"
"Go!"
Seeing Tian Jian's anxious expression, the king and queen looked helpless, and could only wave his hand to make him retreat.
After leaving the Empress Dowager's bedroom and getting into the carriage, that anxious look had long since disappeared.
Tian Jian sighed quietly, and in an instant, his momentum changed suddenly.
"Mother, don't you know that this alliance will be the last chance for the six kingdoms of Shandong?"
The sound of hoofbeats broke the silence of the harem, and the carriage moved slowly towards the palace gate.
……
"Dong'er, send these two fish to Senior and Mr. Cao."
In the evening, in the countryside, inside an abandoned wooden house.
"Miss, the guards managed to catch these two fish and sent them away. What else do you want to eat?"
"How about we pick a big one and send it over."
Dong'er suggested.
The master and servant love each other deeply, and the little girl always thinks of her young lady.
However, she couldn't hold back Li Yanyan's persistence.
"I don't want to eat fish, go!"
"Oh."
Dong'er pouted and replied, then remembered something again, lowered her voice and asked tentatively,
"Miss, don't you like him?"
"What nonsense!"
Li Yanyan's face turned red, and her tone immediately became lower.
"It's not that you don't know that when I return to Chu State, I will marry into Lord Chunshen's mansion. How can I like others and harm others and myself?"
Li Yanyan's tone was low and pitiful, so Dong'er couldn't help but fell silent.
The atmosphere in the room became oppressive.
At this moment, there was a sound of breaking through the air, and the door of the room was torn apart.
……
next door.
"This is the secret of the "Huangshi Tianshu"?"
Cao Chao stared at the brocade in his hand in shock.
Unexpectedly, there is such a powerful thing recorded in it!
Since he got the "Huangshi Tianshu", he spent an hour studying it almost every day, but he has not made any progress.
This is also impossible, because the words on the brocade silk are all crooked tadpole characters.
This is different from any kind of writing in history, and even made Cao Chao think that it was Mao Sui who used it to fool him.
But just tonight, Cao Chao took out the "Huangshi Tianshu" on a sudden whim.
But what is different from usual is that Cao Chao did not try to understand these characters, but carefully observed the strokes of each tadpole character.
The result actually made him see the clue.
Unexpectedly!
The whole piece of brocade and silk, with a total of 81 characters, actually involves a peerless formation.
"Eight Arrays After the Wind"!
According to legend, it was the killing formation created by the Yellow Emperor and the general Feng Hou when he was fighting Chi You.
It consists of eight formations, namely, the sky-covering formation, the ground-carrying formation, the wind-raising formation, the cloud-hanging formation, the dragon-flying formation, the tiger-wing formation, the bird-flying formation, and the snake-coiling formation.
It's a pity that the brocade in Cao Chao's hand only records the first two formations, namely the sky-covering formation and the earth-carrying formation.
"If there is a chance in the future, I must visit Duke Chu Nan!"
As long as you make good friends with this old man, you may not have the opportunity to see the complete version of "Huangshi Tianshu".
Thinking of the power of "Eight Arrays after the Wind", Cao Chao couldn't help but shed tears of poverty.
However, at this moment, there was a soft noise from the next door.
"Murderous!"
……
Inside Li Yanyan's wooden house, there was a sound of breaking through the air.
Amidst Dong'er's screams, a figure came in with a sword, raised his hand and hit the vital points of the two women.
With every gesture, he controlled the two women with just one move.
"Who exactly are you?"
The acupoints were restricted, but Li Yanyan didn't seem to panic.
In fact, she was born in a side branch of a wealthy family and received strict training since she was a child.
If it weren't for her beautiful appearance, she might have been sent abroad by the master's family as a marriage partner, so as to inquire about other countries' intelligence.
This is the fate of being an offshoot, just a vassal of the main family, with a low status.
"The one who came to catch you!"
The man in black snorted coldly, and raised his hand to grab Li Yanyan's fragrant shoulder.
Just at this time, the wall next door burst, and countless pieces of wood attacked the man in black.
"Clang clang clang!"
The man in black drew his sword to block, and swung the broken wood away one by one.
The dust cleared away, revealing a thin figure.
"Cao Chao!"
At this moment, Li Yanyan's acupuncture points were tapped, and she couldn't even move a finger, so she could only let Cao Chao hold her in his arms.
Li Yanyan was fascinated by the unique smell lingering on the tip of the nose and the broad and powerful chest behind her.
In Cao Chao's arms, she felt an unprecedented sense of security.
"court death!"
Lu Goujian's face was extremely gloomy.
The dignified first-class swordsman missed for the first time today, which made it difficult for the arrogant him to accept.
With a shake of the long sword in his hand, Lu Goujian's eyes flashed fiercely, and he swung the sword to stab Cao Chao.
This move seemed ordinary, but when the sword was thrust out, it turned into three blue sword lights, attacking Cao Chao from different angles.
"Three-handed sword!"
There was a bloodthirsty expression on his face, and his first move was the strongest killing move.
The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength!
This is Lu Goujian's style of acting.
However, the next moment, his expression was completely frozen on his face.
As soon as the man in front of him drew out the long sword at his waist, the three cyan sword lights were completely shredded.
The black light flashed past, blood spattered, and an arm was thrown out.
Looking up, Lu Goujian had disappeared, leaving only the broken arm and a pool of blood on the ground.
Chapter 24 What's wrong with my lady?
"Dong'er, is this how fish scales are scraped?"
"..."
"Dong'er, which one is the salt?"
"..."
"Dong'er, come and taste the saltiness!"
"..."
