The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

The queen giggled and came close to her daughter: "Xuan'er, is this the magic water you give me to drink every day?"

Zixuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, mother."

"I told you, Queen Mother is already eighty years old, but she still feels as strong as when she was forty!

"And you, Xuan'er, with this figure and this face, who would believe that you are already sixty years old?"

Zixuan touched his pretty face and turned around in front of his mother a few times:

"Hehe, mother, as long as we keep drinking the spiritual spring water, we will definitely live forever!"

"Really? That's great, but the Queen Mother is afraid of death!"

Zixuan laughed secretly in his heart, Mother, I already knew that you were afraid of death, haha...

The queen sighed and murmured to herself, "Alas, it's a pity that such a beautiful lady like you doesn't even have a concubine by your side."

When Zixuan heard his mother mention this, he immediately thought of Boyuan: "If Boyuan hadn't died, he would have lived a long life."

The queen looked at her daughter distressedly: "Xuan'er, don't always think about Bo Yuan. Find someone else you like. You are still young."

Zixuan didn't say anything, but just walked back to the living room silently.

I took out a bottle of orange juice from the refrigerator and drank it slowly.

I remember that Bo Yuan’s favorite drink when he was alive was orange juice.

She stared at the bottle with dull eyes, murmuring softly, "Husband, where are you..."

The next day, Ji Lao Da found Zi Xuan and said, "My lord, the aerospace experts have already measured the data."

"Prepare to launch two robots into the sky."

"A black cloth made of a special material was used to cover up the so-called evil star, and from then on the people of Song could no longer see it."

"Well, when can you complete this mission?"

"Three days later, the people of Song should no longer be able to see the disaster star."

Very good. After Zixuan got the exact time, he immediately went to the palace to meet Duke Jing of Song.

Zi Wei happened to be there, and the two of them were worried about this matter.

Seeing Zixuan coming, he hurriedly greeted her: "My sister is here, please take a seat!"

Zixuan was not polite either, after all, he was the other person's sister.

"Zi Luan, my sister has already asked the immortal master, and he said that the evil star will leave in three days."

Duke Jing was delighted and immediately stood up and bowed deeply to Zixuan: "Thank you, my sister's immortal master, for your help!"

Zixuan waved his hand: "You're welcome! The Immortal Master said so."

"It's your kindness that moved the heavens, so the evil star left. You should be thanking yourself."

Zi Wei said doubtfully, "That's not right. I've calculated it many times."

"If you don't transfer the disaster to others, the disaster star will not leave!"

Duke Jing glared at him and asked, "Are you more powerful than the gods?"

Zi Wei shrank back and said, "I dare not. We will know the outcome in three days!"

On the morning of the third day, Zixuan and Ziluan were waiting for the results.

Zi Wei ran in excitedly: "The king is gone! The king can't be seen!"

Zi Luan glared at him angrily: "Isn't it true that I am right in front of you? How can you say I'm gone?"

Zi Wei pulled his hands over his mouth awkwardly: "I meant that the evil star is gone and can no longer be seen!"

"Really? That's great! Ziwei, now you believe what the Immortal Master said, right?"

Zi Wei nodded repeatedly: "I believe it! I believe it!"

Zi Luan turned his gaze to Zi Xuan again and said, "Sister, could you please ask the Immortal Master if Xiang Tu can win this campaign against Xiao Di?"

Zixuan thought, why do you keep asking questions? I'm not a fortune teller.

But considering that we are of the same clan, it is hard to refuse in person: "Okay, I will ask for you when I get home."

In the residence of Qu Fulie, the young master's trusted retainer, he heard that the young master had started a rebellion and was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

Thinking of how good the young master was to me and how he generously gave me half of his family property, I must repay this kindness.

Now that the young master has become powerful, I can't just sit there doing nothing. What can I do to help him?

He called over his trusted retainer, Ji Shu, and said, "Ji Zi, the young master has gained influence in Xiao. Can you help me think of a way to help him?"

Ji Zi stroked his beard and thought for a moment: "My Lord, we have no political power and no military authority now, so we can only do evil in secret!"

Qu Fulie coughed lightly and said, "That's not called doing something bad, it's called using a trick!"

"Right, right, right! My lord is wise. In my humble opinion, if we don't make a sound, we'll make a splash!"

Qu Fulie glanced at him again and asked, "Are we birds?"

Ji Shu hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, no, what I meant is: If we don't do it, then don't do it. If we do it, then do it big!"

Qu Fulie said unhappily, "Are we robbers?"

Ji Shu looked at his master with strange eyes, thinking, "Why can't I explain this to you clearly? Your ability to understand is too strong!"

He said helplessly, "My Lord, what I mean is that we set fire to Zi Luan and burn him to death?"

"Once Ziluan dies and he has no son, it is only natural that Gongzi Di will succeed him."

"This way, you can ascend the throne smoothly without any soldiers!"

After hearing this, Qu Fulie slapped him hard on the face: "Why didn't you tell me such a good plan earlier? You keep beating around the bush with me!"

"Okay! I'll leave this matter to you! So, when are you going to start?"

"My Lord, it's not possible these days!"

"Why not?"

"Because Zixuan goes to the palace every day, if we burn him to death, we will be in big trouble!"

"Her hundreds of children will wipe out our entire clan!"

Qu Fulie nodded and said, "You can make the arrangements. I'll just wait for good news."

The next day, Zixuan came to the palace again, and Ziluan hurriedly asked, "Sister, have you asked the Immortal Master?"

Zixuan nodded: "I asked, but the immortal master said that the secret of heaven cannot be revealed. If he insists on going against the will of heaven, he will be punished by heaven!"

"Oh, is that so," Zi Luan nodded disappointedly.

Then he said, "Sister, I have a crane in my harem."

"I've been losing my appetite and feeling restless these past few days. I don't know why. Could you help me out, sister?"

Zixuan thought, this is fine, I can understand the language of birds and animals, I will know when the time comes by asking it.

She agreed readily, and the two of them walked towards the harem, one in front and the other behind.

When I came to the crane's house, I saw it pacing back and forth anxiously.

Zixuan came closer and touched her head: "Ahe, why are you so impatient?"

When the crane saw that it was Zixuan, it immediately flapped its wings and said excitedly:

"City Lord Zixuan, you're here! That's great! I'm saved this time!"

Zixuan was stunned: "What happened?"

"City Lord Zixuan, this is what's going on. These past few days, someone has been jumping over the wall and saying they're setting fires."

"I'm trapped here and can't get out. If there's a fire, I'll definitely burn to death!"

"What? Someone is going to set fire to the palace? Do you know who it is?"

Xianhe shook his head: "I don't know, I just heard those two people talking about setting fire!"

Zi Luan was confused as he listened to the man and the crane communicating in bird language.

Zixuan turned to Duke Jing and said, "Ziluan, Xianhe said he heard someone talking about setting a fire two nights ago."

"It was worried about being burned to death, so it was anxious and couldn't eat."

"What? Someone wants to set a fire? Who is so bold?"

Zixuan shook his head: "Xianhe doesn't know either. I think you should be more cautious!"

Zi Luan nodded: "Yes, I understand!"
