Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"My lord, Chen Tuan was over a hundred years old when you met him, does he really look that old?"

Defang thought for a while, "I'm not old. Although he already has eyebrows and hair like snow, and a beard over his belly, he is full of energy, has a moderate manner, has eyes, and his voice is loud and steady, and he walks like the wind. The demeanor is calm, neither humble nor overbearing."

"My lord, my concubine remembers that when Chen Tuan met you for the first time, he said a few words to send you off. Since he is a master outside the world, he must have a metaphor. I don't know what it means?"

"I can't understand it." Defang shook his head, "I only remember a few words: Talented north and south, land with concubines, suffering in this life, blessings for a hundred years, truth hidden in the shadows, returning to the clan in ninety-nine cases. I asked about other scattered things Nangong, he said that what Chen Tuan said seemed to refer to future generations, but he didn't know what it was." Defang looked at Concubine Di and said, "No matter what it is, it doesn't matter to us. It is useless to think about how the Emperor Taizu's two branches will have their own number of days."

"What the lord is talking about." Concubine Di nodded, "So what if we know? Will we become gods in a hundred years to see if they succeed?"

"Immortal?" Defang looked at Concubine Di and blinked. "Hahahaha, madam is really good at telling jokes."

"Well, why are you laughing?" Concubine Di looked at Defang seriously, "You have suffered so much and endured so much grief, but as a descendant of the Zhao family and a descendant of the great ancestor, you silently endured everything and devoted yourself to the king of your country Do your duty, treat your mother with utmost filial piety, and be kind to your servants and common people, the prince and God can see it, maybe you will really be among the immortals in a hundred years."

Defang was stunned for a while when he heard this, then shook his head, "Even so, I won't go."

"Why is this? Isn't it good to be a fairy?"

"Because my wife is not here, I will definitely ask the gods for help and let my wife be with me." Defang looked at Concubine Di, "If God separates me from my wife, then I don't want to be a fairy."

"Then..." Concubine Di looked at Defang with a smile, "If the concubine becomes a god, the prince doesn't?"

"Then I won't beg anyone." De Fang took Di Concubine's hand, "As long as Madam lives well, I will feel at ease on Huangquan Road."

"Prince..." Concubine Di hurriedly put her hand in front of Defang's mouth, "Don't talk nonsense, the concubine is joking."

"No kidding, I owe Madam a lot in this life, and if there is another life, I will definitely make it up to Madam."

"The concubine and the lord have made an oath long ago. They will sleep together in life and die in the same hole. They will stay together and grow old together, and their love will never end." Concubine Di looked at Defang and smiled. "Besides, our lives are still very long. Besides, lord Don't forget, you said that you want to be with your concubines forever."

Defang nodded, and embraced Concubine Di, "I have not forgotten, I want to be with my wife forever and ever, and we will never be separated in heaven and earth."

Seeing this, Ke'er and the attendants who followed quickly lowered their heads. Concubine Di touched Defang to indicate that there were others around him. Defang smiled and let go of her arms. Concubine Di said, "My lord, let's continue the story. The concubine still wants to listen."
