Chapter 253

The moon pearl in the sea has tears

Long Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Concubine Wu is the emperor's favorite concubine. If you get the appreciation of Concubine Wu and be loyal to the emperor, how can you fall into the ground? If others want to hurt you, the emperor will protect you!"

"I hope so."

The two of them came to the palace. This was the first time that Xiao Jiading witnessed the real ancient palace, which was far more majestic and gorgeous than the Forbidden City. After all, many of the furnishings in the Forbidden City have been removed. Except for the ancient buildings, the rest are gone. Compared with the palace where they are living normally, it is naturally incomparable.

Xiao Jiading looked around like a diorama, and saw that the palace maids were as beautiful as flowers. He thought that this place where the emperor lived was really awesome. No wonder so many people wanted to become officials and emperors when they were fighting for their blood.

Finally arrived at a palace. After Xiao Jiading went in, he found that he had not arranged a bed to sit on it. He knew that he would naturally stand when meeting such a high-level royal relative, so he stood with Long Jiuxiao next to him.

After a while, many people came in one after another, first the palace maids and eunuchs, and then several women, one of them was Wu Yueniang.

Wu Yueniang saw Xiao Jiading at first sight, her beautiful eyes widened, and her cherry mouth widened into a vertical duck egg shape, and she could see two neat rows of small beetles. She stuttered, "You? You are..., you are ugly?"

Xiao Jiading's eyes fell on a noble lady behind Wu Yueniang. The lady's clothes can only be described as elegant and luxurious, but her appearance was a hardcover version of Wu Yueniang. Her eyebrows, eyes, nose, and small mouth were all so delicate, especially those eyes. It could make people stay calm and stare at first sight.

Xiao Family Ding also became this virtue, until Long Jiuxiao next to him coughed gently. He woke him up from his dream and quickly lowered his head.

But Wu Yueniang rushed to him, grabbed his collar, and said angrily: "You! Are you really that ugly monster?"

Xiao Jiading smiled bitterly and said in a hoarse voice on Xianguo Island: "Miss Wu, it's me."

"You! You lied to me so hard!" Wu Yueniang slapped her, but Xiao Jiading grabbed her hand.

Xiao Jiading said: "I have no choice but to be sinister on the island. If I really get the immortal fruit, then I will be the target of everyone's pursuit? So I can only cover up my true face."

Behind him, Wu Zetian's soft voice as soft as the Spring Rain Class: "Yue Niang. Don't be rude, sit down!"

Wu Yueniang shook Xiao Jiading's hand hatefully, and glared at him again: "I'll settle the score with you later!"

Xiao Jiading shrugged and looked at Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian sat down on the bright yellow phoenix couch in the middle of the warm pavilion, and his phoenix eyes looked at Xiao Jiading with an indescribable smell: "Can you tell me about you?"

Xiao Jiading bowed and told all the origins he could tell. Of course, he did not say anything like traveling over and worshiping Leng Xue's master.

Wu Zetian listened quietly, and after listening, nodded and said, "The King of Shu once mentioned you to me, and he also intended to protect the media, but unfortunately..." When she said this, her face was a little dim. After listening for a while, she turned around and said, "I have read all your poems, which are very good. When we meet today, can we also write a poem so that we can see your ability to become a poem in seven steps?"

Xiao Jiading had already expected this incident and said frankly: "Please give the question."

Seeing that he didn't refuse at all, Wu Zetian was even more surprised, and nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "You have a matchmaker from the King of Shu, and you happened to meet Yue Niang to save her, and even made a marriage contract with her. So your marriage was not a problem. However, I want to see what kind of emotions you have towards Yue Niang, so you can write a poem with this title."

Countless poems describing the love of men and women immediately emerged in Xiao Jiading's mind, and there are countless classic songs among them. Which one should I use?

First of all, you can't express your love too directly, because there is a Changsun Yanran behind her, which is not easy to coax. If she wrote a erotic poem like Zhu Ge here and it was passed into her ears, wouldn't this little jealous jar have to make a fuss with her? His grandfather Changsun Wuji knew that he was so dissatisfied and would look down on him, which would be miserable.

Secondly, he cannot talk about him, and he will not be appreciated by Wu Zetian if he uses an indifferent poem.

From this point of view, the best choice is the hazy type, which is like this, looking at the left and the right. Everyone can make poems with different understandings, so that they can leave a way out for themselves.

When I think of ancient misty poetry, the first thing I think of is the great poet Li Shangyin. Some of his poems are not clear at all. The explanations of famous poets who appreciate poetry in the past dynasties are different. The most typical one is his "Black Se". This poem has the bright moon, which can be attached to Wu Yueniang, and there are things like missing and obsessed with love. Of course, it can be used as a love poem.

Although a considerable number of people in later generations believe that this poem was written for Li Shangyin's deceased wife and was an eulogy, it was combined with Li Shangyin's life experience. If you put aside this and change the background, the explanation will naturally be different.

Time was tight and there was no time to think about it. Xiao Jiading began to pace. The direction he was heading was a jade zither placed by the wall. After seven steps, he had already reached the zither side of the zither. He raised his hand to play the zither and chanted slowly:

The brocade zither has fifty strings, one string and one pillar reflects the youth.

Zhuang Sheng was confused by the butterfly in the morning dream, and Emperor Wang was entrusted with the cuckoo in the spring.

The moon is bright in the sea and the pearls have tears, and the sun is warm in the blue field and the jade produces smoke.

This love can be remembered? But it was already lost at that time.

After listening to this poem, Wu Zetian and Wu Yueniang were stunned for a moment, lowered their heads and thought about the meaning of the poem. After a while, Wu Zetian shook his head and said, "You read it too quickly, please write it down."

Immediately, a palace maid brought a few cases and put the four treasures of the study. Xiao Jiading picked up the pen and wrote this poem. He held it in his hands and sent it to Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian reached out to pick it up, and Xiao Jiading saw her slender and tender ches, slender and soft, crystal clear, and as bright as snow. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no wonder he was fascinated by the emperor, he was really a beauty on earth.

He just glanced at it and lowered his head, fearing that he would notice his empress's hand, which would be very disrespectful.

Wu Zetian slowly appreciated it and handed it to Wu Yueniang. After reading it, Wu Yueniang was like many people in later generations who read this poem. She was confused.

Wu Zetian smiled and looked at Xiao Jiading and nodded slowly: "It's very good, I'm very satisfied."

Only then did Xiao Jiading let go of his heart if he could say this.

Wu Zetian said: "Since this is the case, when this palace reports to the emperor, the emperor should agree, so let the Ministry of Rites arrange the marriage. Your position will also be re-arranged."

Xiao Jiading bowed and bowed, "Thank you, Empress!"

Wu Yueniang's pretty face turned red, like a colorful cloud in the sky. She pouted and said to Wu Zetian: "Sister! I haven't asked him clearly about many things. Why did you agree to the marriage?"

"You're married, please ask slowly." Wu Zetian said with a smile.

Wu Yueniang's pretty face turned even more red. She turned her head to look at Xiao Jiading. Seeing him looking at him with a smile, she glared at him fiercely: "No! Come with me! I want to ask you!"

Xiao Jiading clasped his fists and said, "Sorry! Miss Wu, the Empress said just now. After we get married, you are asking slowly. I dare not disobey the Empress's imperial decree."

"You!" Wu Yueniang stamped her feet and turned to look at Wu Zetian. "Sister! He, he bullies me!"

"It would be great if you don't bully him! Princess Gaoyang ended up today because she was too arrogant, disrespectful to her husband, and acted recklessly. You should take it as a warning."

"Sister, why do you compare me with that bitch!" Wu Yueniang snorted and said to Xiao Jiading: "By the way, where is your betrothal gift? Didn't you say that as long as you agree to the marriage, you will present rare treasures as a betrothal gift?"

Xiao Jiading said, "Of course. Since the Empress has agreed, I will go back and present the betrothal gift immediately. But there is one thing that needs to be explained. This betrothal gift is a rare treasure and there is only one in the world, so I can only offer it to Concubine Jie."

Wu Zetian is the emperor's favorite concubine, and she is loved by everyone. I have never seen any rare treasures in the world? What kind of gift can Xiao Jiading take out with a small robe? Not only did he smile and nodded, "Thank you!"

Long Jiuxiao sent four great guards to accompany Xiao Jiading back to get the betrothal gift.

Xiao Jiading returned to his residence and took out an immortal fruit. He still has four immortal fruits in his hand. Although this immortal fruit has been stored for so long, it has been very fresh and has not deteriorated.

He packed it in a brocade box, held it in his arms, and returned to the palace.

Wu Zetian was very curious about what treasure Xiao Jiading had given to him as his sister's betrothal gift, so he kept waiting with Wu Yueniang.

Finally, when Xiao Jiading came back.

Xiao Family Ding respectfully placed the brocade box in front of Wu Zetian and gently opened it. A fragrance wafted in the room, which was really refreshing.

"Immortal Fruit?" Wu Yueniang was surprised. She had eaten fairy fruits and had eaten them more than two. She was so familiar with the taste. She stretched her head and saw that it was indeed the fairy fruit on the Fairy Fruit Island that bloomed every thirty years and beared every thirty years!

When Wu Zetian heard his sister's words, she couldn't help but feel ecstatic. As a woman who is in the world, the most worried about her youth is that her youth is gone. As long as she can keep her youth, she is willing to pay any price. This time, she sent an army of thousands of people to search for the Immortal Fruit Island. Unfortunately, most of them were buried at the bottom of the lake. The last person who came back said that she had climbed to the Immortal Fruit Island. As a result, she encountered a strong enemy and finally encountered a volcano eruption, so the Immortal Fruit was buried in the Immortal Fruit Island. Unexpectedly, this inexplicable sibling took out such an Immortal Fruit.

Wu Zetian carefully picked up the immortal fruit and looked around and said, "Is this really an immortal fruit?"

"Yes!" Wu Yueniang and Xiao Jiading said in unison. Wu Yueniang said again: "We had already picked the immortal fruit, but later they were snatched away by the two Heavenly Supremes and Heim. Unexpectedly, it fell into his hands. - Hey! Tell me honestly, how did you get it? What about the remaining three?"

"There are three left?" Wu Zetian frowned slightly. When Wu Yueniang and the others came back, they did not say that they had picked the immortal fruit.

Wu Yueniang stuck out her tongue and briefly said the incident, but she did not say the five that were eaten by them. This was absolutely impossible. Instead, they only had time to pick four, and the remaining five were not picked at the treetops and there was no time left, and the strongly corroded lake water eroded the fairy fruit tree. The remaining five fell into the strongly corroded lake water and melted.

Xiao Jiading heard that she made it up like this, and naturally he would not say it through.

After listening to Wu Yueniang's explanation, Wu Zetian looked at Xiao Jiading with a question in his eyes. Xiao Jiading hurriedly said, "Miss Wu is telling the truth, that's it. When they left on a boat, I stayed in order to stop Tianzun and Hailao Mu and others. In order to survive, I lied to them that the four immortal fruits were hidden by me. So they asked me to lead the way to find them. On the way, the Supreme One ate three of the four immortal fruits that were left, leaving only one. Just then, the volcano erupted, the Grandma ran away, and the Supreme One was washed up into the sky by the air waves and burned to death. The only one immortal fruit left on him happened to fall beside me, so I got it and escaped from the Immortal Fruit Island. That's it."

After hearing this, Wu Zetian nodded and said, "It's rare that you value Yue Niang so much. You can take out this immortal fruit as a betrothal gift. This is really a rare treasure. I'm very satisfied. Thank you!"

Xiao Jiading quickly said, "You're welcome, it's OK, but he muttered in his heart. It seems that Wu Zetian doesn't seem to believe that the remaining fairy fruits were eaten by the Supreme Heaven. It's so troublesome. Will the remaining three fairy fruits be eaten when they go back? Or hide them? If they are searched, it will be really troublesome. But he has eaten them, will it be wasted?

He thought to himself, but there was no flaw on his face.

Wu Zetian said: "When you went back to get this immortal fruit, I had already reported to the emperor. The emperor agreed with this marriage very much. He heard that you are proficient in criminal laws and work as Yuan Shao's clothes in Dali Temple. He reminded you to let you try Fang Yiai's rebellion case. You must not let a sinner go, nor do you wrongly a good person."

Xiao Jiading thought to himself: The emperor wanted to protect Li Ke and his uncle and nephew, but it was just in vain. He didn't want to get into this muddy water. But he repeatedly agreed.

After leaving the palace, Xiao Jiading kept thinking about how to tell Changsun Yanran about this.

At this time, he didn't know that Changsun Yanran in the Changsun Prime Minister's Mansion had already had a big fuss with his grandfather.

Who is Changsun Wuji? He had already installed some spies in the palace, so the fact that Wu Zetian married his sister Xunjie to Xiao Jiading immediately reached Changsun Wuji's ears.

Xiao Jiading was promoted by Changsun Wuji. He already regarded Xiao Jiading as his own person. Now, when Wu Zetian wanted to marry his sister, he immediately regarded this matter as the emperor weakening his power and winning over the people around him.

Changsun Wuji would not let go, not only because of Xiao Jiading's personal talent, but also because of his face, so he decided to interfere in this matter. Just when he was about to go to the palace to talk about this matter, his granddaughter Changsun Yanran came. (To be continued...)
