I didn't intend to be a Fairy

"Did that person come to give us paintings just now?"

"almost."

"Then thank her a lot."

"Since Empress Sanhua said so, then it should be so."

"Yes!"

"Empress Sanhua can already decide."

"It's time to make the decision~"

"yes."

"Let's hang this on the wall too!"

"Since Empress Sanhua said so, then it should be so."

"Yes!"

The cat was still standing on the table, looking down at the painting seriously.

That being said, the painting is of course excellent...

Don't tell me, the more you look, the more you look like it!

"Let's go, Empress Sanhua."

"Where are you going?"

"Go buy a hook."

Now that Empress Sanhua has made the decision, the Taoist priest dared not delay any longer. Before the hottest time of the day, Dang even took her out and bought another hook.

When I came back, I asked Empress Sanhua again, and she pointed to a random place, and the Taoist took the hook and pressed it on the wall, easily embedded it into the wooden wall, and then hung the painting on it.

There are two paintings in the house.

A large horizontal painting, the landscape on the painting is like a fairyland, with vivid aura and lifelike.

A vertical banner, the painting is only a corner of the mountain, but it is a gentle spring, the back of the Taoist and the cat accompany each other, everything is harmonious and natural, although the skill is not as good as the former, it is still a good painting.

There are no unnecessary decorations in the room, only these two paintings, but they match the simple furniture and mats on the bed, and they are also in line with the style, only adding a bit of elegance to the humble room.

The Taoist stood in the room and stared at the two paintings for a long time, as if he felt relieved.

There is nothing to think about at this time.

Tired of watching, I went to take a nap.

...

After taking a nap, the Taoist sat down at the desk, spread out the paper, dipped a pen in the ink, and wrote down the recent events one by one.

It has been half a month since I watched Cangshan map, and I have learned a lot.

It's just that too many of them are my deep understanding of the way of heaven and the laws of the world, which are so mysterious that I can't express them or write them down, so I just mention them in a few words.

An Le Guan's tea is well-deserved.

Interestingly, the tea house has been passed down in Changjing for hundreds of years, and there have been four generations. I am afraid that these four generations are all one generation. The goblin has hidden so deeply in Changjing and lived for such a long time, and it is worth pondering.

When writing about what happened at noon today, the Taoist paused.

It seems that a great demon with profound morals and virtuosity is hiding in the capital. In order to repay his great kindness, he was trapped here. In fact, behind it is the power dispute that the empire is facing today.

This is about Princess Changping.

Although this princess is a daughter, she should not be underestimated. She is probably the most powerful and wealthy princess in the Central Plains dynasty in history.

As for why this is so, it is a long story.

Let's start with the former queen.

Dayan gave birth to an empress before, so there is no need to talk about the empress' merits and demerits, but her appearance has had a huge impact on the world, the most notable being the improvement of women's status.

The status of women in the feudal era was generally low. Due to various reasons, this world is slightly better than the previous life, but there are also high and low points in the thousands of years.

During the reign of this empress, the status of women reached the highest level. Although they were still far inferior to men, they were able to do business and even engage in politics. There were female officials in the court and palace. Even now, the status of Dayan women is higher than that of previous dynasties, and this influence is enough to pass on for more than a hundred years.

At the same time, more importantly, the existence of this queen has ignited the political ambitions of many women.

After the empress, for several generations, women often interfered in politics and even tried to control the power. No matter the empress, empress dowager, or princess, they were much more active than previous dynasties.

Just like this Princess Changping who showed extremely high political ability when she was young.

There are more reasons.

Emperor Dayan's fertility was generally poor, and he rarely had a full house of descendants. It must be said that this was really detrimental to the stability of the world.

Although the former emperor was benevolent and charitable, he was widely praised, but his descendants were indeed very unstable - he gave birth to three sons in total, one died within a few days after birth, one fell into a well and died when he was young, and the other was He grew up smoothly but his health has always been poor, and he died earlier than the first emperor. In this way, the succession of the throne became a problem.

At that time, there were many disputes between the court and the clan, and various proposals were proposed, and the emperor was also hesitant.

The world even became chaotic because of this.

In the end, with the joint efforts of the current emperor and Princess Changping, the former emperor and the court chose the younger brother of the former emperor, that is, the current emperor, to inherit the Datong.

At that time, the emperor was only in his thirties.

Princess Changping is only less than twenty.

Later, the emperor did not treat Princess Changping badly and gave her a lot of power. This emperor is more ambitious and resolute than his elder brother, and he is keen to expand the territory. Correspondingly, he needs to spend less energy on governing the country, and these places, before the appearance of the national teacher, were all It was the princess who made it up.

The problem is still with the offspring.

When the emperor first came to power, although the prince was not as shrewd as her sister, he was still considered a prince, but within two years, the only prince also died of illness.

The princess's heart became hot.

Under Chaozhong's panic, some people fell on her.

Later, the emperor gave birth to two princes in succession. He was really old, and the emperor was strong enough. He had been on the throne for more than thirty years, and he was nearly seventy years old, and his body still looked very strong.

The two princes also grew up gradually.

But how can the princess who has a burning heart and those ministers who have fallen for her be willing?

This is actually a power struggle in this dynasty.

A nearly fifty-year-old princess who has the ability to support the dragon and has been in the court for many years, two princes who are only in their teens, and the old emperor who is about to turn seventy.

Either way it will be a great event in history.

Taoists know that the world is big and life is short. It is not easy to see all over the world in twenty years, and it will not take too long to spend in Changjing. However, this kind of historical drama of imperial throne disputes often takes several years. It took more than ten years to deduce it. In fact, he didn't pay attention to these things deliberately, but he didn't expect to see some from different angles and in different ways.

This feeling is completely different from what later generations read history, or what people in the world read from books or hear from storytellers.

In this era, in a place of dispute, even if you do not intervene for some reason, you will still be affected by it and feel its existence. Because such major events are closely related to everyone in the world.

It’s like the ghosts in Changjing, like the period of curfew, like the government orders brought about by the transfer of officials and power disputes, like the big monster who came to the door today...

It is the authenticity of history that can only be felt in this era and this place.

I don't know how many bloody storms it is.

It’s just that a Taoist is a Taoist and a passer-by, even the ancestors of Fulong Temple in the past—if it is not clear that a result will definitely bring a good direction, otherwise try not to intervene and let history make its correct choice , I walked through it, only as a witness, and wrote down some words at most. Maybe many years later, future generations will explore the truth of history from the words they wrote.

"..."

The Taoist shook his head with emotion and continued to write.

A cat next to him was sitting upright, with its tail wrapped around its little feet, and it tilted its head to stare at him as he wrote.

"..."

The Taoist looked back at her helplessly.

In the past, when the cat was illiterate, he would often fiddle with the string of the brush on the table when he was describing his travels and experiences. Now that I know how to read, I don’t need to pull the lanyard anymore, but just tilting my head to concentrate on reading what you write, seems to be more disturbing than before.

"What are you looking at?" Sensing his gaze, Mao'er looked at him and asked him back.

"Nothing." Song You looked away.

"Then why do you look at Empress Sanhua?"

"..."

"Why don't you write?"

"How many characters does Mistress Sanhua know?"

"Some know it, some don't."

"When Empress Sanhua knows more characters, she can no longer watch me write these."

"Why?"

The three-flowered cat stared at him with burning eyes.

"Because this is a travelogue."

"Why?"

"How can you say that?"

"..."

Sanhuamao looked him up and down with a serious expression, and it took a long time before he said:

"You're not smart!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and jumped off the table.

Went to play with my own cloth ball.

"..."

The Taoist shook his head and continued writing.

The planks upstairs were so old that they were not only peeling and discolored, but also uneven. When the cat doesn't deliberately lighten its steps, it makes a tinkling sound when it runs. When playing with a ball, it runs so fast and powerfully that it often makes the wooden floor warp and make noise. It's just that the cat doesn't care, and it doesn't bother the Taoist, both of them seem to be used to it.

The Taoist said while writing, "Does Mistress Sanhua know what time it is today?"

"when?"

The cat also replied while playing.

"Xiaoshu."

"Mice?"

The cat stopped and turned to look at him, puzzled.

"The heat of the heat."

"Kurus rat?"

"right."

"Little library mouse!"

"After the minor heat, it is the great heat."

"Rat!"

The cat became interested and stared at him without moving.

"After the great heat, it will be the beginning of autumn."

"beginning of autumn!!"

Sanhuamao completely became interested, and ignored the ball on the ground, instead sat down and stared at him.

The Taoist felt that he had finished speaking and kept silent.

The cat was not in a hurry, so it stared at him behind his back.

Time passed day by day.

The period after the Slight Heat is the hottest period in Changjing. Most of the time it is unbearably hot, and a few times it is unbearably hot. Fortunately, the bamboo mat is cool and has no other disadvantages except for the hair. But Empress Sanhua can endure being covered in hairs, so Taoists can naturally endure it too.

Occasionally there will be a few cool breezes, and the Taoist will open the windows of the small building to let the cool breeze in.

Lying on a bamboo mat bed and feeling the cool breeze is the most beautiful time in summer. In the afternoon, the streets are so hot that people don’t want to come out, the shops are empty, and the world is so quiet that only the sound of cicadas is left.
