In those years, the cultivators we cut together

At noon, the capital of the Tang Dynasty

"I've sent a voice transmission back to Emei, and Shuai Shuai Ya already knows that you're still alive."

In the capital city of the Tang Dynasty, in the busy streets, Chen Nianyun smiled at Lin Xiaolu:

"Shuai Shuai Duck was so surprised that he hurriedly said that he would come over, and then I told it that you and I are in Datang now, and that we will be able to return to Emei in a few days, so it doesn't need to be in a hurry."

On the side, Tang Yuan asked curiously, "Xiao Yu'er should be fine, right?"

"It shouldn't be a big problem." Chen Nianyun said with a smile, "Shuai Shuai Ya will definitely tell everyone that Xiao Lu is still alive."

In the bustling official road, several people chatted while walking, and Chen Nianyun leisurely guided Ling Wei to practice Taoism. The atmosphere seemed very harmonious for a while, while Lin Xiaolu was obviously absent-minded.

The closer he got to the Tang Palace, the more nervous and scared he felt.

I hope what I think doesn't happen, he thought.

Soon, several people came to the majestic east gate of the imperial palace. Lin Xiaolu looked at the Tang soldiers standing guard at the east gate, took a deep breath, and then walked over alone.

When the soldiers saw someone approaching, they immediately raised their hands to stop them:

"Forbidden area of ​​the palace, leave quickly!"

Being blocked, Lin Xiaolu didn't get angry, but calmly prepared to cup his fists and speak, but as soon as he raised his hand, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Then, the soldiers in front of them froze for a moment, and then knelt down with a "plop".

"I have seen His Majesty Taizu!"

At the gate of the palace, Lin Xiaolu was startled, then turned around and looked behind him.

He saw an old man in a black dragon robe.

……

……

"I was meditating in the palace, and I accidentally sensed the aura of you guys, so I came out to have a look."

Behind the imperial palace, in the mountains on the edge of the capital city, in a road with green mountains and green waters, Jiang Taiqing, who was wearing a black dragon robe and a black crown, led Lin Xiaolu and others for a stroll, and said with a sigh:

"Little friend Lin, after so many years, I never expected to see you again, and you have a cultivation level that is not weaker than this old man's. Really..."

Halfway through the speech, Jiang Taiqing didn't speak any more, as if he couldn't think of any words to express it.

And Lin Xiaolu didn't speak, his expression was slightly tense at this moment, and his whole body seemed to be stubbornly suppressing his emotions.

Jiang Taiqing glanced at him, could feel the grief in his heart, and patted his shoulder quite distressed.

"Ning'er has always been thinking about you, but you really can't blame you for not being able to keep the appointment, and you don't have to blame yourself too much."

Behind, Chen Nianyun, Tang Yuan, and Ling Wei looked at Lin Xiaolu's back, and also remained silent for a while.

They could feel Lin Xiaolu's grief at the moment, but they didn't know how to comfort her for a while.

None of them have experienced this feeling, this taste.

Soon, a group of people walked through the winding and rugged mountain road and came to a pear orchard planted with countless pear trees at the foot of the mountain.

When he came to the depths of the pear garden, Jiang Taiqing gave a long sigh, raised his hand and said:

"Ning'er is right there, she has been waiting for you."

In the lush pear orchard, Lin Xiaolu raised his head and saw in the distance, a tomb with a red-tasseled spear stuck in it.

The moment he saw the tomb, he was in a heavy daze and staggered, and Chen Nianyun who was beside him quickly grabbed him with sharp eyes and hands.

"Little Deer, are you alright?"

Lin Xiaolu shook his head, without saying a word, just walked towards the tomb silently.

Seeing this scene, everyone was deeply moved, even Jiang Taiqing said with emotion:

"Ning'er never got married in her life. She reigned for 82 years and devoted herself to the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Because she doesn't know that you are still alive, so she doesn't want to stay for a long time. Not only did she reject my idea of ​​giving her a chance to help her live longer, but she also rejected the custom of the royal family's grand burial. Finally, in this beautiful pear grove , made a simple tomb. "

Speaking of this, even Jiang Taiqing, who is used to seeing strong winds and waves, couldn't help being slightly moved, and sighed:

"Although Ning'er is not a cultivator of immortality, he is the most recognized descendant of me. His staunch temperament and loyalty to those he loves can be said to be unique in all ages, and it is difficult to be an immortal."

In front of the tomb covered by green plants and held high by red tassels, Lin Xiaolu stood sluggishly, every scene with Jiang Ning echoed in his mind.

From the first meeting at the age of 12, to growing up with each other and making a marriage contract, everything seems to be going on.

Behind him, Tang Yuan asked Jiang Taiqing suspiciously: "Senior Jiang Huang, Miss Jiang Ning has passed away and has never been married, so are you taking care of Datang now?"

Hearing this question, Jiang Taiqing shook his head and said:

"Before Ning'er passed away, Mr. Zhong Ni and Ming Ru came to Datang, and Jiang Ning proposed an idea to me and him.

Ning'er wanted to change the hereditary monarchy of the Tang Dynasty to elections by the people. Every few years, several representatives who were loved by the people were elected from all over the Tang Dynasty to govern the country together, every five years.

At the beginning, I felt that this idea was too shocking, but Mr. Zhong Ni and Ming Ru thought it was very good, so they suggested to try it first, and it turned out to be very good. There are more than [-] new departments of various kinds, and heroes are judged by their abilities.In the hundreds of years after her death, the concept of governing the country she introduced has continued to this day, making the Tang Dynasty more and more prosperous. Now I am only living in the Tang Dynasty for the elderly.

Even the Canglong Zhen in Qianlong Hongying was released, so that it could protect Datang with the spirit of the real dragon. "

As soon as this remark came out, Chen Nianyun was dumbfounded, and Tang Yuan was even more amazed: "This Queen Jiang can do it. I often make some pills that ordinary people can't understand, so I understand it very well. This kind of idea of ​​destroying the old and creating the new is very difficult at the beginning. Being accepted by people, she actually has the guts to do so, awesome."

"Yeah, Ning'er did a good job." Jiang Taiqing wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile: "She believes that the importance of a country comes from the people, and the emperor's limitations are too great. After all, no one can guarantee whether the future generations will There was a foolish and tyrant, so everything was changed, and once this method is adopted, even if I am gone in the future, it will be difficult for the Great Tang to have a lone king."

In the arena, several people were talking. In front of the tomb, Lin Xiaolu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his hand.

At that moment, the golden sun shone through the branches and leaves of the pear grove, shining on the boy and the tomb, and similarly, shining on the raised hand of the boy.

That hand, facing the tomb, revealed a slightly raised little finger.

That's... the shape of a hook.

Everyone didn't know why Lin Xiaolu made this gesture, but just when they were wondering, Lin Xiaolu suddenly turned his head, and smiled at Jiang Taiqing with tears streaming down his face:

"Senior Jiang Huang, I made an agreement with Aning to get married."

Jiang Taiqing was taken aback for a moment, then seemed to think of something, a little afraid to say: "Little friend Lin, you don't have to"

With tears in her eyes, Lin Xiaolu smiled and shook her head:

“What has been promised must be done.

My parents died early, and the master is not around now, but it doesn't matter, you are Ah Ning's patriarch and grandfather, that is, my patriarch and grandfather, so I will trouble you. "

Hearing this, Jiang Taiqing stared at the young man in astonishment for a long time, but finally couldn't help it, and burst into tears.

In the pear grove next to the mountains and rivers, under the warm sunshine, Lin Xiaolu wiped away his tears and stood beside the tomb with a free and easy look, smiling and facing the southeast direction. On the side, Chen Nianyun and Tangyuan stood sighing, moved The sputtering Ling Wei shouted with tears in her eyes:

"Worship heaven and earth!"

Lin Xiaolu glanced at the tomb beside him with a smile, and thought softly: Ah Ning, I'm here for the appointment.

Afterwards, he bowed heavily.

After that, there was another sound of "Second worship!", and Lin Xiaolu bowed heavily to Jiang Taiqing beside the tomb.

At the end, with the third sound of "Husband and wife worship!", Lin Xiaolu bowed to Jiang Ning's tomb and couldn't afford it.

……

……

"My wife and I have known each other for a long time. Of course, she liked me first. After all, I was very good very early on. At that time, there were many girls who liked me. There is no way. If I am good, my wife should be regarded as a prey to me. The earliest girl, of course, mainly because she is a very rigid person, and she can kung fu, which I like very much, I don't like that kind of soft girl, compared to my wife who is independent and self-improving I admire girls who know kung fu, who can use red-tasseled guns, and who are not attached to men."
