The little princess was torn, and the demon emperor patched her up

Chapter 177 He is the Great Wizard of the Human Race

It was a dark night, and a fire was burning in the dilapidated temple.

A young man in a Taoist robe and a flowery hairpin sat on the altar, elegantly enjoying the roast chicken offered by Yaoyao.

Xiao Baojing paced around the fire and analyzed seriously, "Everyone says that the Great Wu Xiaoai is highly respected and as old as Peng Zu, but no one has ever seen his true face. Maybe... maybe the young man sitting in the sedan chair is just a puppet he pushed out, and the real Wu Xiaoai is hiding in the box! I was wondering why the sedan chair was so strange, it turns out there is a person hiding underneath!"

"I heard that Wu Xiaoai is now teaching in Wei capital and is a guest of Wei Emperor Cen Han." Xiao Yulou's face was cold, "I will go and ask for clarification tomorrow."

...

The next day.

Xiao Baojing dressed up as a palace maid and followed Xiao Yulou, sneaking into the Wei capital palace in the name of condolences.

Because of the death of Queen Wu, the entire palace is now hung with white silk, and the white lanterns in the snow-white palace are swaying in the cold wind of early spring. The concubines in the harem are grateful for her kindness when she was alive, and Wan Yantong is crying and weeping, which adds to the sadness.

In front of the mourning hall, Emperor Wei looked at the coffin.

After all, they had been married for many years, and his eyes were sad, and his tall and straight figure seemed to be hunched over.

He said in a hoarse voice: "The queen is gone, and I am busy dealing with demons and monsters. I would like to ask the Great Wizard to stay in the palace for a while and help me teach the prince and princess. The Great Wizard knows everything and has noble virtues. I can rest assured that you will be the prince's teacher."

Behind him stood the young man.

The young man was wearing a loose black Taoist robe, a bamboo hat and a black veil on his face. In his hand, he held an antique glazed green lamp, which was the one hanging in front of the box. Even in the daytime, flames were still jumping under the lampshade, emitting an eerie green dark light.

The young man smiled and said, "I will do my best for Your Majesty."

As he was speaking, the eunuch came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Princess of Southern Tang is here to offer her condolences."

Xiao Yulou stepped into the mourning hall and lit three incense sticks for Wu Xiuxiu.

Xiao Baojing followed behind her and glanced at the young man in black.

The young man had his face covered, so his expression could not be seen. All that was seen was that the green lamp in his hand seemed to become brighter and more sinister with the arrival of Xiao Yulou.

Xiao Yulou offered incense and said solemnly, "Your Majesty the Emperor of Wei, I mourn for you."

A few people walked out of the mourning hall, and many officials and their families came to the white marble square outside to pay their respects to Queen Wu.

Xiao Yulou suddenly stopped and said, "The Queen was a very gentle and virtuous woman when she was alive. I believe these people have all received her kindness. The Queen loved her children deeply and was willing to sacrifice her life for them. She truly deserves the title of 'mother'."

The Emperor of Wei thought of Queen Wu's life.

Even though he blamed her for not being able to tell right from wrong and losing her life for a monster, he still couldn't help but tear up.

The cold wind blew his long beard, like the old and pale reed catkins by the river in autumn, bringing out a sense of loneliness.

"I was once a 'mother'." Xiao Yulou continued, "but the child in my belly was conceived out of wedlock. Fortunately, with the help of a master, he was transferred to a hideous man. Later, my niece Nan Jia found that man and killed the illegitimate child when he was about to give birth."

A strong wind blew up.

Xiao Baojing stood behind Xiao Yulou and keenly noticed that the green lamp was getting brighter and brighter, as if it was burning with anger. The Emperor of Wei commented: "Since he is a child born out of adultery, then his death is not a pity. Princess, don't worry about it."

"Later, I asked someone to find out who the father of the child born out of wedlock was. I swore to kill him to avenge my hatred." Xiao Yulou curled his lips, but there was no warmth in his eyes. "It's ridiculous, Your Majesty would never have thought that the father of the child born out of wedlock was actually-"

Xiao Yulou stared at the young man coldly: "Wu Xiaoai."

Her voice is loud.

The officials and their families around were all in disbelief, looking at Xiao Yulou and then at the young man.

The Emperor of Wei frowned and said in a lost voice: "How is it possible?!"

He is the great wizard of the human race!
With his mortal body, he lived as long as Peng Zu and was on par with gods. He was the most respected wizard in all the Central Plains countries!
It is said that he knows everything about anything that happens under the sun. Therefore, even the royal families of various countries treat him like a guest of honor and dare not neglect him in the slightest.

Wu Xiaoai was revered by thousands of people. Some people even built temples for him and offered incense to him. He was not a god but was better than a god!

How could such a person be...

Rape/rape/rape?!

This is simply incredible!
The Emperor of Wei scolded, "Princess, stop talking nonsense! Over the years, the Great Witch has worked hard for the human race and protected the country and its people. Even the arrow that killed Shang Jiu was suggested by the Great Witch! If you put a hat on someone at will, not only will the Great Witch not admit it, but even we will not admit it!"

"Yes! The Great Wizard has been innocent all his life. He often travels around the world, giving lectures and teaching knowledge in the academies of various countries. He has devoted himself to the human race! How could such a noble man be framed by a woman like you? It is simply unreasonable!"

"I'm afraid you have failed to seduce the witch and are here to frame him and destroy his innocence! You are crying thief, how shameless!"

"..."

The king and all the officials almost all stood on Wu Xiaoai's side unconditionally, and tried their best to accuse Xiao Yulou of being fickle and malicious.

Xiao Yulou's momentum was no weaker than that of the Emperor of Wei. He waved his sleeves and said, "Bring the witness!"

Two palace maids came forward.

One of them was a palace maid who served Xiao Yulou.

She knelt on the ground trembling, lowered her head and said: "At that time, the late crown prince and the crown princess had only one daughter. The late emperor believed that the foundation of the Southern Tang Dynasty must be inherited by a man, so he asked the Qingdeng witch how to have another prince. The witch gave the late emperor a box of green candles, saying that after the eldest princess went to bed, she should light them in her room. Then the gods would come into her dream and give her a son of gods, and she could arrange for the son of gods to inherit the throne in the future. The late emperor gave the green candles to me and told me to light them every night. Not long after that, the eldest princess really got pregnant..."

Another palace maid was A Xiang, who served Queen Wu.

She said, "The Queen wants Miss Xiao and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to have a child as soon as possible, so she prayed to the Green Lantern Witch for a child. The witch gave the Queen a box of green candles and told her to light them when Miss Xiao went to bed, saying that she would soon be pregnant."

Xiao Yulou said in a deep voice: "Unfortunately, there is no god-given son in the dream. The one who appeared in my dream was an old thief who was about to die! He destroyed my innocence and humiliated me to the utmost. That's why there is the so-called 'son of God'!"

"I dreamed about that old thief, too!"

A crisp voice sounded.

Xiao Baojing no longer pretended and walked out from behind Xiao Yulou.

She said, "The maid lit a green candle in my bedroom, and the scene I dreamed of was exactly the same as that of Your Highness the Princess!"
