Chapter 258: Past Dreams and Mortal Tribulations 13
A month later, the monarchs of the four countries came to the imperial capital to meet the Emperor Xuanyuan Qi.
There are four countries under the imperial capital, namely Mingyan, Shuangxue, Lei Ting and Shuijian.
Mingyan Country is hot all year round, and there are volcanoes in several places. It has been peaceful for thousands of years, but now the volcanoes have erupted. Countless people in Mingyan have been killed or injured.
The glaciers in the Frost and Snow Country melted, the water source suddenly dropped, fresh water became scarce, and animals lost their habitats. The people of the Frost and Snow Country longed for water, so they migrated to the Water Stream Country, but died of thirst on the way.
A large-scale plague also broke out in Shuijian State, spreading rapidly and infecting most of the people.
Thunder Nation was punished by heaven for no reason, affecting many people. The people of the four countries complained for a while.
Xuanyuan Qi listened to the four people's report and his face was so gloomy that water was about to drip out. He asked the court officials how to solve the problem. A group of people were discussing and arguing with each other.
"Enough!" Xuanyuan Qi interrupted the crowd with an angry roar.
At this time, the head of the Long family looked at the head of the Xuan family and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have a solution."
Xuanyuan Qi's eyes turned deep when he heard this. "Oh?"
The head of the Long family knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, sixteen years ago, nine stars fell and the disaster star descended. Now everything has come true. Please issue an order to kill the disaster star."
Feng Xuan felt something was wrong when he saw the Patriarch of the Long family kneeling down. After hearing what the Patriarch of the Long family said, his face turned completely dark.
Before Xuanyuan Qi could get angry, he took a step forward and knelt beside the head of the Long family, glaring at him with a vicious look.
"Your Majesty, I am just a girl from the boudoir. My spiritual veins were destroyed when I was born and I cannot practice cultivation for the rest of my life. How can I disturb the four kingdoms? Please think twice!"
The monarch of Mingyan State heard this as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, “Your Majesty, I have also heard about the disaster that occurred sixteen years ago.
If this matter is caused by the existence of the calamity star, please, Your Majesty, please sacrifice your relatives for the sake of justice."
The court officials looked at each other for a moment and then knelt down together. "I second your motion. Your Majesty, please kill your relatives for the sake of justice for the people of the world."
Xuanyuan Qi slapped the dragon chair with his palm, holding the chair tightly with a gloomy look, "You..."
Feng Xuan was so angry that he straightened his back and looked at these people in astonishment. They kowtowed in the direction of Xuanyuan Qi, making heavy noises. His eyes were slightly red and his voice was choked.
"Your Majesty, please think twice. I am just an ordinary person."
The head of the Bai family looked at Feng Xuan's back and sneered.
"Your Majesty, the Feng family's disaster star's hair turned white overnight, and one of his bloodshot pupils is extremely terrifying. The disaster star prophecy has been confirmed. Please make your judgment, Your Majesty."
Xuanyuan Qi threw down the memorial in his hand and said, "Enough!"
Xiao Shunzi looked at Xuanyuan Qi's rage and stepped forward quickly, "Your Majesty, calm down."
Xuanyuan Qi laughed in anger, "Oh, calm down? Look at these people who are holding the emperor hostage to control the princes and forcing me to be the executioner of their own parents. They are all rebelling against heaven."
"I dare not." Another chorus of voices
Xuanyuan Qi looked gloomy and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Xiao Shunzi sighed and said, "Resign."
凤家
Feng Moli sat on a stool and looked at the two boxes in front of her, which were filled with memories of her and her grandmother.
The windmills, wood carvings, chubby clay sculptures, and withered straw butterflies…
In the other box, there were many hairpins, earrings, bracelets, wooden combs, and various kinds of peace buckles.
The girl just stroked him with dim eyes, smiling and shedding tears at the same time.
Nanny Sun was seriously injured and in a coma for half a month. After recuperating for half a month before she was able to get out of bed, she heard this laughter and felt sad.
Feng Qi turned away with red eyes and said softly, "Mammy, the second young lady has been missing her loved ones recently. I'm afraid she has lost her appetite..."
Nanny Sun took a deep breath and opened the door
This is the scene that caught my eyes. Tears hung on the girl's smiling face as she held the two boxes in her arms. Her eyes turned red and she choked up and said, "Second Miss."
"Mammy is here. Where's grandma?" The girl gently put down the box in her hand, stood up, wiped her tears, and looked behind her with bright eyes.
Madam Sun was speechless for a moment. The girl's smile froze and she sat back down on the stool, smiling to herself, "Oh, that's right. Grandma doesn't want me anymore."
Nanny Sun held back her grief and walked towards her, squatted down and held her cold hand. "How could Madam not want the Second Miss? Madam loves the Second Miss the most."
Feng Moli felt so wronged that she asked like a child who lost his candy, "Why did I cry for so long? My eyes hurt so much, and my heart hurts so much.
Mammy, why? Why didn’t grandma come to comfort me, why did she leave me alone. "
Nanny Sun couldn't answer her and hugged her and cried. She gently patted the girl's back, which was so thin that you could clearly feel her bones.
After an unknown amount of time, Feng Moli fainted from crying.
Nanny Sun sat at the head of the bed and sang the ballad that Old Madam Feng had always sung for Feng Moli when she was alive, as if this could help this person, who was not restless in her dreams, sleep more soundly.
Looking at the things scattered on the round table, I helped her pick them up one by one.
"Mammy, you are seriously injured and have not recovered yet. Let me come." Feng Qi walked in and whispered
Nanny Sun stopped and sat down.
Feng Qi picked up the sachet and put it into the box
Nanny Sun's voice was filled with vicissitudes, "This is the amulet that the old lady asked for on the second young lady's fifth birthday.
Fearing that she might lose it, she even embroidered a sachet with her own hands. But the old lady was young and had fought on the battlefield, so she had no idea how to do housework. She was pricked by the needle several times.
When I gave it to the second young lady, she said the cat was cute.
I still remember the lady's expression at that time, asking me, "Don't you look like a tiger?"
At the end, Nanny Sun's eyes were filled with a nostalgic and helpless smile.
"Look, there is also this butterfly, which was made by the old lady herself. I didn't expect that the second young lady has preserved it until now."
Nanny Sun paused and turned her eyes to the chubby clay doll, "This clay sculpture was also made by the Second Miss in person while watching the Old Madam."
"These, the peace locket, hairpins, earrings, bracelets. This wooden comb..." Madam Sun thought for a while while holding the wooden comb and sighed.
"It was made two years ago, when the second young lady's birthday was approaching, the old lady took advantage of a break in Ningyun Temple to find a thousand-year-old ancient tree branch. The old lady was even injured for this branch.
I didn’t want to worry the second young lady, so I stayed in my room for half a month without going out. I made this wooden comb.”
Nanny Sun grew up with Old Madam Feng since she was young and never married. She knew better than anyone how important Feng Moli was to the old madam.
Feng Qi carefully put away the things
Nanny Sun then noticed that there were a few things in the box that she had never seen before. "I don't think I've seen these bamboo dragonflies and windmills before, but I think I've seen the craftsmanship of this wood carving somewhere before."
Nanny Sun shook her head and rubbed her eyebrows tiredly.
The sleeve swept the sachet to the ground, and two amulets appeared among the scattered sachet.
Feng Qi had sharp eyes and although there was another amulet carefully hidden under another one, she still saw it. "Mammy, if you can't remember, forget it. The old lady prepared so many things for the second young lady, how could she remember everything? Hey? Mammy, look at these two amulets."
Nanny Sun looked at Feng Qi holding the sachet in confusion.
After taking the amulet and studying it for a moment, he sighed and understood: Madam, you can rest assured. The second young lady is not without protection.
Seeing that Nanny Sun didn't want to say anything more, Feng Qi put the amulet back into the sachet and put it into the box.
