Chapter 326 Past Events

Then Wen Guying answered Li Chuan's question and said, "The empress is a human being, and her life span is about to expire."

"Isn't it?" Li Chuan remembered that when he saw the empress last time, although he couldn't see clearly what she looked like, he could feel that she was very powerful and looked much more durable than him.

"How many years does she have left?" Li Chuan asked.

"Two or three years," Wen Guying replied.

"Two or three years..." Li Chuan flipped through his original memory, "The empress ascended the throne at the age of twenty-six and reigned forty-eight... No, it was almost fifty years." He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It turns out that she is already past her seventies. She is an old lady in her 40s, I always thought she was only in her forties or fifties."

After the shock, Li Chuan related what happened recently, "So she released Dragon King Gun from the palace? She still wants to destroy the demon?"

"I don't know about this," Wen Guying continued: "She told me a past incident."

"What's going on?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said: "It happened when she was a princess. She said she was the most favored princess. Her brothers were trembling with fear when they saw their father, but she dared to pluck out their beards and pick out their eyes in front of him."

"What happened after that?" Li Chuan asked.

"They don't know, they probably thought they met some hermit master, or even an immortal." Wen Guying said: "The woodcutter asked the late emperor to bathe and burn incense, and at the third quarter of Mao hour, he took five hundred people with him. Go straight to the southwest. Sure enough, following the woodcutter's guidance, they walked into the Fertile Pond and saw the Tianzhu not far away."

"The emperor at that time suddenly got up one day and wanted to follow the example of the emperors in ancient times and went on a tour to pay homage to the Tianzhu. In addition to bringing a hundred thousand troops with his ministers, he also brought her with him."

"Hunting in Wochi? Hunting Void Spirits?" Li Chuan said.

"The empress said that the late emperor had always disagreed, but the ministers around him kept coming to persuade her. So finally she took the initiative and said that she was willing to marry the woodcutter. After that, the woodcutter turned into a colorful light and flew towards the darkness. , and revealed his true body in mid-air, it turned out that he was a monster with a leopard head and a snake body."

Li Chuan vaguely remembered what Gong Wuguang said, and he asked, "Then she disappeared near Wochi?"

"It's not missing." Wen Guying said: "She said that they were near Wochi at that time and could not find the way in. After wandering for half a month, they suddenly met a woodcutter and said that he often went to Wochi for hunting. Take them inside."

Wen Guying said: "After that, just like when they entered Wochi, a road appeared in front of them. They walked along the road and returned to the place where they were stationed before. After that, the late emperor returned to the capital and It is said that the empress Tanwan has disappeared."

According to Gong Wuguang's narrative, the empress returned to the palace after missing for three years. After that, she was hated by the late emperor. Fortunately, she survived with the blessing of the late empress.

And there are rumors that she got married and had children during those three years.

"Then she felt a gust of wind blowing by, and the next moment, she fell on the monster's back. Three years later, she returned to the palace and found out what happened next."

"So they walked towards the direction of Tianzhu. After they walked in the Wochi for an unknown period of time, soldiers and officials continued to disappear, and soon there were only a hundred or so of the five hundred people left. The late emperor asked the woodcutter to save them , the woodcutter said that he would only be willing to take action if the princess was to marry him."

"Then how did she come back?" Li Chuan asked.

"Do you remember the eight grave bags in that well?" Wen Guying asked.

"Those little half-demon?" Li Chuan remembered, "They weren't born by her, were they?" "It was her," Wen Guying said.

"Eight children were born in three years? How?" Li Chuan asked.

"Nine," Wen Guying corrected Li Chuan, "eight boys and one girl."

"Half-demon woman?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying nodded and said: "Your Majesty said that after she killed the ancient monster giant Chi, before leaving the Wochi, she strangled the eight boys she gave birth to, while the girls escaped."

Li Chuan was horrified and speechless for a moment. Then he remembered the pile of meat mountains in the well, and felt even more incredible. He asked: "How could she, an ordinary person, even a princess, kill the ancient monsters?" ?How did you leave Wochi?"

"She must have concealed something," Wen Guying said: "After talking about this past, she told me that she knew that the treasure of Tianyumen is a mirror, which can see a person's past and future. She asked me if I could borrow the mirror for her because she wanted to see her daughter before she died."

"Abyss Fire Mirror?" Li Chuan asked.

"It's the Yuanhuo Mirror." Wen Guying said.

"Does the palace supervisor know these things?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said: "When the empress told me these things, he was there, and it seemed like he was hearing it for the first time. Seeing them getting along with each other this time, I felt that Gong Wuguang really regarded the empress as his master. It's just that what you do is just fulfilling your duty as a minister."

"You said that you think the empress only looks in her forties or fifties and is very powerful. Perhaps this is because Gong Wuguang is trying to find a way to recuperate her body. It's just that he didn't think of a way to prolong her life."

"Can your life be extended?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said: "It's a bit difficult. The Dajiang Dynasty is the largest dynasty in the world, and the humane luck accounts for about sixty-seven percent. She is the emperor of the Dajiang Dynasty, and the dynasty's luck and the humane luck are mixed. , it is indeed difficult to cover up the secret of heaven and change the lifespan. But for Gong Wuguang, it is not completely impossible. In three to five years, it is still possible. "

"The empress has no descendants... No, she wants to see her daughter. Is it because she wants her daughter to succeed?" Li Chuan asked.

"Impossible." Wen Guying said, "If a half-demon becomes the emperor of the largest dynasty in the world, Xuanmen will also start to oppose the Jiang Dynasty and support someone else to become the emperor. As long as he is a human being."

"So she really just wants to take a look?" Li Chuan asked. At this time, he regretted not going with him in the afternoon.

"Maybe." Wen Guying said, and he looked at Li Chuan: "So are you going to lend her the Yuanhuo Mirror for a look?"

"She doesn't know that the Yuanhuo Mirror is here with me?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said: "Gong Wuguang didn't tell her. After leaving the palace, I asked him, and he said that as a supervisor, he only watches the sky and asks for good luck, and also deals with the demons and monsters that cause harm to the world. . He rarely mentions Xuanmen matters, and will only say a few words unless His Majesty asks."

"Do you think we should borrow it?" Li Chuan asked Wen Guying for his opinion.

Wen Guying said: "She let me make any conditions as I please. And... through the connection between her and the half-demon woman's bloodline, we may be able to deduce more things, such as how the half-demon woman obtained the Frost Leaf Sect's skills. Yes, and why did she decide to found the Frost Leaf Sect."
