Liaozhai Ghost Story

Chapter 294 Queen Zhen

Liu Zhongkan in Los Angeles, with mediocre qualifications, was studying at home this day. Suddenly, a beautiful woman came to her face, followed by several maidservants in palace clothes. Liu Zhong was shocked and quickly knelt down to salute. The beauty helped him up and said, "Wasn't you arrogant before? Why are you so respectful at this moment?" Liu Zhongkan said, "Girls are ordinary immortals. I don't know you before. When have you been rude?"

The beauty smiled and said, "It hasn't been long since we separated. How can we forget all the past? Isn't it you, the man who used to grind bricks on the ground? Liu Zhongkan said blankly, "Grinding bricks? I'm not impressed." The United States: "To tell you the truth, in fact, the prince is the reincarnation of Liu Gonggan, and I am Cao Pi's concubine Zhen. On that day, the prince was in trouble for me and was punished. I feel very sorry, so I came to compensate you. Well, since Yao Chi said goodbye, hundreds of years have passed in a blink of an eye, the prince's spirit has been lost, and he has long been a talented man in those years. While talking, he took out a pill and said, "This is Tangwo crystal pill. After the prince takes it, it can strengthen the brain."

Liu Zhongkan swallowed the pills and asked, "Where is Emperor Wei Wen? Where is he now?" The American man said, "Cao Pi is a mediocre boy. Because he usurped Han to ascend the throne, he entered the hell after his death and suffered endless punishment every day. I haven't heard from him for a long time."

The two talked for a while and went to bed to rest. After that, the beauty drove away. Since then, Liu Zhongkan has made great progress in writing, but he misses the beautiful woman every day and is in a daze. An old girl at home said to Liu, "Has the prince been harmed by lovesickness?" Liu Zhong sighed and said the whole thing one by one. The old man said, "It's not difficult. Please write a letter, and I'll try to send it to Concubine Zhen for you.

Liu Zhongkan was overjoyed and said, "But she lives in Tianting. Are you really sure to send a letter? If so, I will never forget the great virtue for the rest of my life. Write a letter now and give it to the old man.

In the middle of the night, the old man went back and said, "It's lucky not to humiliate my life. When I first arrived at Nantianmen, the general saw at a glance that I was a fox demon and was about to capture me. In a hurry, I took out the letter and said that it was Concubine Zhen's trusted person. Then the general opened the net and let me in. Empress Zhen took the letter and said to me, 'She has ended her fate with the prince. Please don't think about her anymore. I will send you a bride at noon tomorrow."

At noon the next day, an old lady sent her to the door, and the bride's face was amazing, calling herself "Chen, surnamed Si Xiang." Liu Zhong couldn't help asking, "What's your relationship with Concubine Zhen?" Si Xiang said, "Hundreds of years ago, I worked as a prostitute on Tongquetai. Later, I was transferred to the Prince's Mansion to serve Concubine Zhen." Liu Zhongkan changed his color and said, "So, are you a female ghost?" Si Xiang said, "It's not. My mother and I have become immortals and are listed as immortals. However, because I have violated the rules of heaven, I have been demoted to the mortal world and practiced. Liu Zhongkan breathed a sigh of relief and was relieved.

On this day, a blind man led a yellow dog and came to beg for food. Liu Zhongkan came out to entertain him in person. Si Xiang was also helping. The yellow dog suddenly broke off the rope and couldn't stop barking at Si Xiang. Then he showed fierce eyes. He bit Si Xiang's coat, tore off a piece of cloth and chewed it into pieces. Liu Zhongkan was furious. He picked up a wooden stick and drove the yellow dog away, which calmed down the matter.

After a long time, the blind man left. Liu Zhongkan asked his wife, "Aren't you a fairy? Why are you afraid of dogs?" Si Xiang said, "Your father-in-law doesn't know anything. This dog is the incarnation of Cao Aqian. At the beginning, when Cao A was about to die, he made a will and asked me to share incense and sell my shoes and support myself. Because I didn't follow the precepts, I came here to retaliate.

In the past two years, Si Xiang lived a simple and rarely had contact with relatives. Her family asked her where she came from, which was also vague. Liu's mother secretly suspected that she was a monster, so she invited a Taoist priest to catch demons and open an altar in the courtyard. Si Xiang was displeased and said, "I wanted to stay with my father-in-law, but since my mother was suspicious, I couldn't stay any longer. It's just a Taoist priest who wants to catch me, but he is delusional. While talking, he lit a bunch of hay and threw it under the steps. In an instant, the smoke filled the mansion, and the thunder roared in the sky, touching. Then the smoke dissipated, and Si Xiang disappeared. Look at the Taoist priest. The seven holes are bleeding and have been dead for a long time.

(Liu Gonggan, that is, Liu Zhen, one of the seven sons of Jian'an, has outstanding literary talent and is deeply appreciated by Cao Pi. Once, Cao Pi held a banquet to invite the bachelors. During the banquet, the Zhen family came out to meet the guests. When the students first saw the beauty, they bowed their heads and did not dare to look up. Only Liu Zhen's eyes were burning and he stared at Zhen unscrupulously. Cao Cao knew about this and was furious. He was about to punish Liu Zhen for hard work, demoted to the West Stone Factory, and grind the stone. On this day, Cao Cao went to inspect the stone factory. The officials and a group of workers all crawled to the ground and knelt down to salute. Liu Zhen looked calm and did not kneel down. He held a piece of brick in his hand and grinded it as usual. Cao Cao was furious and walked to Liu Zhen and scolded him harshly. Liu Zhen did not change his face and said, "The king of Wei is well known all over the world. As a hard work force, how dare he despise the king? However, in the Wei royal palace for several years, I have often heard the teachings of the king of Wei. He should do his best to do things. If everything is successful, the king will be happy. If everything fails, the king will also be humiliated. He is now a hard worker, specializing in stone materials. He is loyal to the king of Wei, so he does not dare to withdraw his life. After hearing this, the king of Wei asked again, "Shi Ruohe?" Liu Zhen said, "It comes from the top of the cliff of Jingshan Mountain, and there are five-color chapters outside, which contain the treasures of the Bian family. The grinding does not add Ying, the carving does not add text, the temperament is firm and natural, take care of its reason, and it is in vain and can't be applied."
