Four in the same order

People in Qingyang are influenced by wood, respect nature, and advocate simplicity, so there is no big difference between Zhuyizhai and ordinary people's study.

Hanging on the wall behind the desk is a large character written with the words "The tree of Hebao, born at the end of the hair", which is the words of advice that Ranheng wrote to herself at the ceremony of Chengxu in Qingyang this morning.

The rulers of the four countries are changed every 24 years. The rulers are determined by God and not elected by the people. However, if the new rulers fail to pass the national status assessment at the end of the first year in office, they will not be recognized by the people and lose their status. .

Therefore, each generation of new kings took office, and they had to inscribe their own palaces and study inscriptions at the Chengxu ceremony held at the beginning of the year to express their aspirations and lofty sentiments or to describe their principles of doing things.

Ranheng inscribed the name "Kurong" in his bedroom, which means "the prosperity and decline of vegetation, success and failure, all have a fixed number, and they are all normal." Immediately look at the flowers, and walk on the ground'.

The status of the king is extraordinary in the eyes of the world, but in Ranheng's own eyes, it is commonplace - it is nothing more than being able to absorb purer spiritual energy and use stronger spiritual power to defend the country and feed back the country. .

Ke Ranheng was also particularly concerned about whether she could pass the state assessment conducted by the Layue Prince Hou Jian and successfully participate in the grand ceremony, because she didn't want to disappoint her relatives, Ran Xun, the third-generation ruler of Qingyang Kingdom.

The word "kiss respect" is used by a special group in the four countries to call their parents.

People who are full of spiritual energy and can gather the energy of heaven and earth to transform the universe are called "spiritualists"; and those who respond to the prayers of sincere people, inherit the sustenance of heaven and earth, and transform human forms from all things are called "spiritual sons". .

Reiki originates from the heaven and the earth, and when a spiritualist gathers the spiritual energy to transform spiritual power, he forms a bond with the heaven and the earth, so a spiritualist has a seal on his body.

Spiritualists born in the four famous families are more powerful and have more obvious characteristics than ordinary spiritualists. Therefore, all the heirs to the throne are born from the unmarried and outstanding descendants of the four famous families.

The king is the person with the most exuberant spiritual energy and the most powerful spiritual power in a country, and the descendants of the king must be spiritualists, so they are also the most eye-catching.

Excluding the failure of the national status assessment, each generation of four kingdoms ascended to the throne on the same day and became Zen on the same day.

In order to prevent the age gap between the successors from being too large and their ideas difficult to match, the four first-generation kings made a rigid regulation on the lifelong events of the king in the "Hongmeng Law"——

As long as one country's ruler settles the marriage issue, another country's ruler must put it on the agenda within a year, until the last widowed ruler dies in old age.

In this way, the age difference between the descendants of several kings can be kept at about three to five years old, and it is also convenient for other famous families who intend to compete for the next generation of dignitaries to adjust their plans in due course.

However, occasionally there will be a king who is obsessed with state affairs and has no intention of personal affairs.

They don't want to break the rules of their ancestors, and they have to give birth to offspring, so they only have one way to go to the "Pillar of Clouds" Tianming Mansion's Prayer Division to pray for God to grant a spirit child.

Ranheng's relative, Ranxun, is exactly such a king.

Eighteen years ago in Yuanshuo, Ran Heng responded to Ran Xun's wish, transformed from a stalk of grass into a human form, and was born next to Ran Xun, inheriting Ran Xun's blood.

Heaven and Earth will follow the wishes of the person who prayed for the spirit to determine the age of the spirit son when it takes shape.Ranheng was already a full-moon baby on the day of her transformation. Although she could not speak yet, she was quite intelligent, quiet and well-behaved. Therefore, within a few days of her birth, she was sent to Qingyang by Ran Xun, who was busy with government affairs, and entrusted to her The elders of the family discipline.

Ran Heng, who retains some pre-formed memories, has respected Ran Xun who gave her a second life since she was a child. The idea of ​​being a role model in your own life.

Unexpectedly, after Ran Xun entered the age of [-], he suddenly became concerned about Ran Heng's lifelong affairs, repeatedly urging Ran Heng to find a lover as soon as possible, which made Ran Heng who wanted to follow Ran Xun and pray for the continuation of his blood a headache.

No, the verbal persuasion was fruitless, and they changed their strategy and forcibly provided a token of love.

"It's a great day, you shouldn't be distracted by such mundane things." Ranheng walked to the desk and locked the brocade bag in the desk drawer, "I've finished writing my notes, let's go to Liangyiyuan to relax before going to bed."

Liangyi Garden, located in the middle of the inner city, is the place where the flowers and plants of the four countries gather and gather, and it is also the place where Ranheng, who is close to plants by nature, must go every time he comes to Taiyi.

After all, she was young and full of vigor, and was freed from sitting for half a day. Ranheng's mood was unavoidably joyful. After blowing out the candle, she quickly changed her hood, put on her cloak, and left Zhu Yizhai again.

——It’s almost midnight, if you want to avoid people’s eyes and ears, you have to come back before the end of the last Chengxu ceremony.

Ran Heng glanced at the sky where goose feathers and heavy snow were falling, then raised his legs and sat on the railing.

"Finch—"

With his own shout, Ranheng jumped up.

"—Chirp!"

As soon as the cry fell, a crisp bird song pierced the night sky.

I saw a gorgeous blue bird with a white beak and bare feet suddenly descended from the sky, stepped on the snow, flew to the dry Ronglu, and firmly caught the dyed bird in midair.

This bird is the royal beast passed down from generation to generation by the Lord of Qingyang——the Emperor's Sparrow.

Ranheng signed the first blood contract with the imperial daughter Que at this morning's Qingyang Chengxu Ceremony, and was able to blend with her qi and blood and communicate with her soul.

In the land of Qingyang, the spring is bright and beautiful all year round, and the woods are lingering.

The good birds fly towards the sun and choose trees to live in. They like to build their nests in Qingyang, where the spring is bright and the trees are luxuriant. touch.

As the fourth generation ruler, Ranheng is the most physically fit and woody person in Qingyang's generation, so she and the emperor's daughter have only been together for half a day, and they are already as close as old friends.

"Que'er, take me to Liangyi Garden, keep it secret."

Ranheng sat on the back of the emperor bird, and smiled while stroking its smooth and supple feathers.

"Chirp..."

However, the emperor sparrow fluttered its wings a few times uneasily, and even the cry became a little lower.

There are no guards stationed in Liangyiyuan late at night, but the four sides of Liangyiyuan are surrounded by "four pillars" - the powerful people and strangers in the four pillars are always observing the surrounding movements, and when they see sneaky things, they will shoot together to intercept them.

Although the emperor sparrow is an ancient divine beast that soars across the world and understands human nature, it is also a normal female bird with only a love of beauty. It is afraid that its beautiful and precious green feathers will be accidentally injured by these powerful spiritual men.

Ranheng read the uneasiness of the emperor's daughter, and stroked it more gently: "Don't be afraid, they recognize you, and they won't try to stop you."

"Chirp—"

Only then did the emperor's bird feel relieved, and flew into the sky against the snow like an arrow leaving the string.

In a short time, the emperor's daughter Que took Ran Heng from Qingyang Palace in the east of the inner city to Liangyi Garden in the inner city.

The Liangyi Garden is where the land veins of the spirit land are located, with flowers and plants, sand and rocks, all of which are too numerous to handle.

Even Ranheng, who has seen countless exotic flowers and plants in Qingyang Kingdom, can't name every flower and plant in Liangyi Garden.

The emperor sparrow obeyed Ranheng's command, quickly circled the broad Liangyi Garden, and then flew towards the middle of the Liangyi Garden - it was going to the Wuji Hall where the four kingdoms' rulers discussed the affairs of the state together. .

There is a wide open space outside the main hall of the Promise Hall. In the center of the open space is a large symmetrical disc that is naturally formed of black and white sandstone, half black and half white.

The large disc and the white and black symmetrical dots contained in its black and white semicircles can just symbolize the meaning of "everything in the world contains yang, yang contains yin, and yin and yang contain each other". It is called the Yin Yang Tai Chi plate——

Wuji gives birth to Taiji, and Taiji is based on Wuji, which together builds the duality of heaven and earth.

Ranheng jumped down from the back of the emperor's daughter, stood in the center of the Taiji plate, looked at the Wuji Hall directly in front of him, and let the snow soak his shoulders.

The bright moon hangs high, and the heavy snow and the fragrance of flowers fight each other, competing for favor with Ran Heng's eyes and nose one after another, but Ran Heng has no intention of caring about it at this time.

For Ranheng, tonight will be her last night of self-indulgence. When she enters the Promise Hall as the lord of the country, she will bear thousands of households.

"Once upon a time, I was also an ordinary plant growing in the mountains and forests that no one knew about. If I hadn't been called by my lord to sacrifice blood, I would have withered and turned into dust."

"I was raised by my relatives and raised by Qingyang. I don't own the flesh and skin. I have been blessed by nature. To take on this important task, I will do my best and live up to everyone's expectations."

As if feeling the weight of Ranheng's heart, the emperor's daughter shrank back to her petite form, jumped onto Ranheng's shoulder, and gently pecked her cheek.

"I almost forgot that I came here to relax... Que'er, thanks to having you by my side."

His thoughts were interrupted, and Ranheng relaxed, and then he hugged the emperor's bird and lay down on his back on the Tai Chi plate.

With a relaxed mood, looking up at the sky full of snow and stroking the soft feathers, I can't help but feel sleepy.

The "Xingzhu" Drunken Dream Pavilion located in the northwest of Liangyiyuan has not yet rung the clock to tell the time, Ranheng simply closes his eyes, takes the sky as a quilt and the ground as a seat, and takes a leisurely nap.

The emperor bird couldn't bear to be disturbed, and closed her eyes meekly, perching in her arms.

One person and one bird were all intoxicated by the silence of this deep winter snowy night, so they failed to notice that there was a strange purple snowflake falling among them——

Snowflakes passed through Ran Heng's cloak and sank into Ran Heng's chest, but left no trace of water stains.

When the bell of Zishi rang, the emperor bird had just sent Ranheng back to the Kurong House. It didn't like the cold and wet weather, and when the task was completed, it went straight to the sky and returned to the clouds to rest.

The main house, Lan, lives on the third floor of Kurong Hut. Ranheng took a short nap, but became more and more sleepy. Remembering that there was nothing important to do the next day, she went back to her room, took off her hat and clothes, washed up briefly, and fell into a deep sleep without wearing anything. .

The people of the four countries are affected by the four qi of yin and yang, forming four different physiques - the people of Qingyang country have the body of Shaoyang which is resistant to yang and wood, the people of Zhuming country have the body of old yang which is resistant to yang and love fire, and the people of Baizang are the body of Naiyang The body of Shaoyin, which is yin-loving and golden, is the body of Taiyin, which is resistant to yin and prefers water.

Based on the body and body, according to the overall chest and abdomen characteristics, it is divided into the male body with flat front chest and steep lower abdomen and the female Kun body with steep front chest and flat lower abdomen.

Yang is the sun, and the sun is dry; Yin is the moon, and the moon is Kun.

However, as shown in the Tai Chi plate of Liangyiyuan, the universe, the sun and the moon are mutually refuting and refuting, yet they complement each other.

When yin and yang embrace each other, the sun and the moon intersect, and the universe merges, the two become one.

The same is true of the physique and body of the people of the four countries.

Therefore, people with non-yang and yin-kun bodies in the Four Kingdoms all combine the characteristics of the two bodies, which can also be called "a body that meets each other".

Ran Heng of Shaoyang Kun has such a body.

Ordinary people don't want to show their belly, go to bed with more underwear and obscene clothes, but they like to fall asleep in a state of nothingness.

Maybe it's because the beautiful scenery of Liangyi Garden has been engraved in his heart, Ranheng feels that today's dreamland is extraordinarily fragrant and soft, and he is reluctant to leave.

She didn't think about when it was now, or how long she had slept, if she hadn't faintly sensed the restlessness in the bamboo forest, she wouldn't even bother to lift her eyelids.

"……Eh?"

However, the moment she opened her eyes, Ran Heng was so frightened that she was fully awake—a naked girl with half black and half white hair was actually buried in her chest.

Is this the Xuan British people, or the Baizang Kingdom... ah!

The senses became clear in an instant, and the strange girl's breath sprayed on her chest made Ran Heng's scalp tingle and flustered. She didn't know whether to wake the girl up first, or move the girl out of her arms first.

"Squeak..."

But at this time, the bamboo building was ringing, and someone was visiting from Kuronglu.

No time to think about this!

Ran Heng propped himself up, and was about to leave the girl behind to change clothes to meet the guests, to resolve the current crisis, but unexpectedly, the girl in his arms groaned softly at this moment, and woke up in a blink of an eye.

"Um…"

"Girl, why are you here..."

In the middle of speaking, Ranheng suddenly fell silent - she was dazed by the shocking face that the girl raised her head to reveal.

The young girl's skin is whiter than snow, her eyebrows are as black as black, her eyes are as clear as water, shining with hope, her snowy skin and black eyebrows reflect her waist-length hair that is evenly black and white, and she has the power to touch people's hearts with a frown and a smile.

The climate in Qingyang raises people, and Ran Heng has seen many beautiful women, but none of them can compare with the girl in front of her. At this moment, she forgot who she is and where she is, and she can't help pouring out her feelings: "God ... fairy..."

The fairy-like girl didn't look happy when she heard the words, instead she lowered her head in pain: "Um..."

Only then did Ranheng come back to his senses, and asked worriedly: "Are you okay——"

Before she finished speaking, the imprint of the young leaf on her forehead suddenly burst into golden light, burning to the point of pain.

Oops!

At the same time, a golden light was seen on the back of the girl's neck, and an ominous premonition ran through her mind. She supported herself with one hand, covered her hot seal with the other, and tried to open her mouth to say something.

However, the girl who fell back into her arms again due to the pain in the back of her neck and the door that was suddenly pushed open blocked her words.

"—Aheng, why is there a sign of a predestined relationship here!"

Seeing the excited unexpected guest who broke into Lan Qizhu, Ran Heng's head hurts.
