After hearing the whole story, Cao Yan's face could not help but flash a strange and complicated color. Obviously, she did not expect that she would be the sister of Cao Guojiu, one of the ancient immortals. But the problem was that she did not have a brother named Cao Yi, and even more so, she was the only daughter in her family. There was no way to talk about a brother. "Husband, three Taoist friends, although I also want to have a brother who is the reincarnation of an ancient immortal, the problem is that I am the only daughter in my family. My mother had not yet joined Dayi and became a citizen of Dayi. She suffered a lot of hardships, endured the invasion of wind and cold, and suffered from hunger and cold. After becoming a citizen of Dayi, she could only get the opportunity to practice by killing the red dragon. From then on, she could no longer give birth. I am the only daughter in my family, I can be sure of this."
Cao Yan shook his head and said.
Some things, yes is yes, and no is no.
"The secret of heaven shows that Uncle Cao's fate should be in the Great Yi. This is correct. The Eight Immortals are mutually inductive and their fates are pulling each other, and he will definitely become Uncle Cao of the Great Yi. I just saw the face of the Saint Princess, and she is naturally invaluable. Moreover, there is indeed a cause and effect relationship between her and the Eight Immortals."
Lu Dongbin said with a smile.
“If we talk about the uncle of the country, then only the younger cousin of the heir of a country can be called the uncle of the country.” Yi Tianxing said.
Uncle of the Emperor is not a title that everyone can have. If it were true, in ancient dynasties, the emperors had three thousand beauties in their harems and countless concubines. Wouldn't there be uncles of the emperor everywhere? That would be disgraceful and disruptive to the government.
"Indeed, in a secular dynasty, only the relatives of a queen are qualified to be called the uncle of the state. However, Dayi is different. Dayi is a lucky dynasty, and now it has been promoted to a holy court. Even if she is not the saint queen, the status of the saint princess is still many times higher than that of a secular queen. It is not an exaggeration to call the cousin of the saint princess the uncle of the state. At least, in terms of status, he is not inferior. Of course, this is also the reason why we came to see Fellow Daoist Yi."
Han Zhongli also spoke.
After all, their identities are equal, or even far superior, but the problem is, without Yi Tianxing's permission, ask yourself, in the territory of Dayi, who, even the cousin of the Saint Princess, dares to call himself the uncle of the king and show off everywhere.
"I don't mean to offend the three Taoist friends. The truth is, every family has its own rules and every country has its own laws. Not everyone can become the emperor's uncle. If I open the door today, a group of royal relatives will come to beg me tomorrow. At that time, should I give it to them or not?"
Yi Tianxing said slowly after hesitating for a moment.
They knew very well that the three of them came here not to ask for a title comparable to that of the emperor's uncle in a secular dynasty, but they really wanted to be recognized by Dayi and be recognized as the emperor's uncle by his own mouth. It was feared that only in this way could Uncle Cao truly recover his true spirit and return to his position as one of the Eight Immortals.
This possibility is very high, and it may even be the most critical point.
Although asking for help is just a matter of words, the same old saying still applies: the rules cannot be broken.
If it breaks, it will bring about a series of consequences.
This is the way of ruling a dynasty. If you set rules, you must abide by them. As the ruler of a dynasty, you must lead by example. Only in this way can you convince others with reason and virtue.
"Saint King, news just came that Concubine Yan's stepmother has been confirmed to be pregnant for three months."
Just then, Cao Zhengchun suddenly came over and spoke in a low voice.
"What? Mother is pregnant? How is this possible? Mother has already killed the red dragon, it is impossible for her to be pregnant again."
When Cao Yan heard this, there was surprise on his face, but also astonishment and confusion.
Obviously, this was completely beyond her expectations.
"According to the news, your mother took a spiritual fruit called Tai Sui Fruit. Only then was she able to recover her Red Dragon body and reach the most perfect state, which is why she had the chance to get pregnant."
Cao Zhengchun said.
Obviously, he had learned the specific information before coming. These things were not secrets. They could be easily found. He was naturally very careful in doing things. He only came to report after finding out everything clearly.
"Taisui fruit, so that's how it is. It seems that your mother is really lucky." Lu Dongbin's eyes lit up, and he said with admiration: "It is said that Tai Sui can become meat ganoderma after a thousand years. As long as its roots are not damaged, even if a piece of meat is cut off, it can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth and grow again. Tai Sui meat is different and has different abilities, but the most basic ability is to turn bones into meat and revive the dead. Some can also give people special abilities and open up life orifices. It is said that there are Tai Sui that can get the opportunity after growing for ten thousand years and undergo a strange transformation. They are no longer meat ganoderma, but a Tai Sui treasure tree. There are tree trunks and branches, but no leaves. They can bloom and bear fruit. The whole body is like living flesh and blood. The Tai Sui fruit has the ability to return to the origin and revive the dead. If you eat it, you can restore to the physical state you want to return to the most. There are other wonderful uses."
The magical power of the Tai Sui tree is no less than any innate spiritual root. It can even be said that it is an innate spiritual root itself.
"Why don't I remember there is a Tai Sui tree in Dayi?"
Yi Tianxing asked with a hint of curiosity.
He might not know everything about what is in Dayi, but at least most of it can be seen by him. Moreover, it is a treasure of innate spiritual root level like the Tai Sui Treasure Tree, so it is impossible for him not to know about it.
"Reporting to the Holy King, according to the news, they obtained the treasures from the Nightmare World. It is said that a cultivator entered the Nightmare World and saw the Tai Sui Treasure Tree. Then, he desperately picked a few Tai Sui fruits from the tree. Although he was killed by the guardian beast, he brought out three Tai Sui fruits, which was a great harvest and made him rich overnight. One of them was bought by Concubine Yan's family and given to her mother to take, and she recovered as before. That's why she got pregnant. It is indeed Concubine Yan's biological brother and sister."
Cao Zhengchun replied respectfully.
"Haha, it looks like Uncle Cao is about to be born. The one in her belly must be Uncle Cao incarnate."
When Han Zhongli and the other two heard this, they looked at each other and saw joy in their eyes.
I looked for it in Dayi before, but couldn't find any trace. Now it seems that it is because he has not been born yet. Now is the right time, neither too early nor too late.
"I have sensed that the fate of the Eight Immortals appeared in the Great Yi, and it is obviously Uncle Cao. However, in order to let Uncle Cao return to his position this time, I still need Brother Daoist Yi to help me. Although I know this is a bit difficult, if you have any conditions, please feel free to ask. As long as we can do it, we will definitely not refuse."
Lu Dongbin took a deep breath, looked at Yi Tianxing, and said decisively.
This matter is neither difficult nor easy. But he believes that as long as he is sincere enough, he may be able to move Yi Tianxing's heart.
Yi Tianxing hesitated for a moment, glanced at Lv Dongbin, and slowly said: "Since Fellow Daoist Lv has repeatedly mentioned this matter, it is not unsolvable. However, this precedent cannot be easily opened. However, if he can make great contributions to Dayi and make a lot of meritorious deeds, then even if he is given the title of uncle of the emperor, there will not be much objection in Dayi, whether it is the people or the court. As for the conditions, there is no need to mention them. If Uncle Cao wants to return to the throne again, this is also a test. What do you think, fellow Daoists?"
During the conversation, a solution was also given.
"That's great. I'll do as you say. The path of the Eight Immortals is not always smooth sailing. It is natural that there will be tests. To obtain a noble destiny, one naturally needs extraordinary tempering. This matter may become a popular story in the future."
When Zhang Guolao heard this, he agreed with great joy.
The Eight Immortals: Eight kinds of fates for men, women, young and old, rich and poor. Cao Guojiu represents the noble one among them. The position of Guojiu is naturally extremely noble, not to mention being the Guojiu in the Great Yi Holy Court, which is even more noble.
“However, Uncle Cao has not been born yet, and it will take him a long time to grow up. I wonder if the three Taoists are interested in staying in Dayi for a while longer.” Yi Tianxing said with a calm smile.
The Eight Immortals represent a large number of top forces.
If I could stay in Dayi and even leave behind a legacy, it would undoubtedly be a great thing.
Afterwards, after chatting with Lü Dongbin and the other two for a while, the three of them also said goodbye at the same time. With the promise, the purpose of this visit naturally had a good result, and now they couldn't wait to see Cao Guojiu who was not yet born.
"Husband, I'm sorry to have troubled you this time."
Cao Yan looked at Yi Tianxing and said with a hint of apology.
"Don't think too much. If your brother is really one of the Eight Immortals, it's not a bad idea to give him the title of uncle of the emperor. Of course, whether he can get it depends on his own ability. Don't worry. There is still a long time. By then, it may be a good story." Yi Tianxing said with a smile: "Let's go. It's getting late. Let's go back and rest together. This time, it's a good opportunity to leave you a child."
After he finished speaking, he took Cao Yan's hand and walked into the Emperor's Heart Palace with a smile.
The spring beauty tonight is so beautiful that the whole garden cannot be contained.
... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Outside of Dayi, the atmosphere in the surrounding areas always presents a depressing and murderous atmosphere. All of this comes from Dayi.
However, Dayi never showed up. Only in the Bohai Sea area, Dayi's iron-blooded Great Wall continued to advance outward. Although most of the area now covered was the sea, it would soon be close to the land and cover the islands at such a speed of expanding a hundred miles a day, bringing positive pressure.
Let’s not talk about all this for now, but to say that in front of the Caribbean Sea, in the Iron Blood Great Wall, the Blue Legion among the Seven Color Legions suddenly appeared, and blue sky boats quickly shuttled across the sea. Moreover, the sky boats were naturally connected to the sea, concealing their own whereabouts, and their traces could not be easily detected.
On the Tianzhou, there were not only soldiers from the Blue Army, but also young men in long robes, with sharp spirits, confident faces, and expectations. They were none other than the students of the School of Diplomacy led by Mao Sui.
