"So comfortable!" After waking up, Tao Tie stretched his body and sighed happily, "I haven't slept so peacefully for a long time." As he uttered this sigh, his aura fluctuated and his magical powers rose to the ninth level. This time, Tao Tie did not suppress it again. Because he finally got a good night's sleep. Everything in the world is balanced. If you want to gain something, you must pay for it. Although Tao Tie paid a lot during the three months in Wu Shi Sea, he gained so much! It was so big that even with the Queen's help in reducing his burden, it was still not enough to balance it out. So Tao Tie has faded from people's sight for the past month, walking and stopping along the way, eating and drinking, and taking a nap occasionally. In the first few sleeps, Tao Tie did not sleep well and had some strange dreams. For a monk, dreaming while sleeping can only mean two things: one is that the mind is unclear, and the other is that the mind is restless.
A unclear mind means that something has gone wrong in spiritual practice, especially in sexual practice. Being restless means that something has gone wrong in your destiny and a disaster may be approaching. Tao Tiedai had endured so many calamities and was both enduring them and bearing the good fortunes. He also possessed so many merits from heaven and men, it was almost impossible for a second situation to occur. Therefore, it is only that something has gone wrong in the practice and the mind is still not at peace. it's good now. Having finally settled the last dispute with Wu Shi Hai, Tao Tie was able to completely let go of his burden and set sail again with ease. At this time, Tan Jinxuan stepped forward and said, "Master Tao, do you want to hear about the excitement in Yangzhou?" "listen." Tao Tie agreed without hesitation. The excitement that Tan Jinxuan felt would interest him would only be related to a small group of people. Tao Tie, who did not want to abuse the Tianji method, would not break the precepts he had recently set for himself just to listen to some excitement. In fact, as far as Tao Tie knows, His Majesty is the strongest in the Dayong Dynasty when it comes to attainments in the art of heaven! The second director of the Imperial Observatory! Master Tianji can't even get a number! And your Majesty today never abuses the law of heaven. The Director of the Imperial Observatory would try his best to see the secrets of heaven only when the imperial court used national power to suppress it. So Tao Tie listened attentively to the exciting news brought by Tan Jinxuan. I only heard Tan Jinxuan say in a rather strange tone: "Padmasambhava appeared in the Qinhuai River, destroyed his clone in public and fled. The Fifth Prince's guest Pan Ran requested the Ministry of Justice to issue a warrant for his arrest throughout the country on the grounds that Padmasambhava had killed the people of the Celestial Empire." "The Fifth Prince's guest Pan Ran publicly accused the Dinghai Guard's chief steward of being disrespectful to the Fifth Prince." "Ma Weiwei, the daughter of the Marquis of Xinxi, is suspected of... is suspected of being in love with the Fifth Prince."
When he heard the last sentence, Tao Tie's face twitched and his expression showed a bit of distortion. Is Ma Weiwei, the daughter of Marquis Xinxi, destined to have an affair? First, she was bewitched by Senior Sister Dao, then she was almost included in the Third Prince's list of concubines, and now she is actually involved with the Fifth Prince. This is a bit far-fetched. that…… “Is Yangzhou still suitable to visit now?” Tao Tie started thinking and had other ideas. Anyway, he didn't have to go to Yangzhou from the beginning. The reason why Tao Tie agreed to go to the princess at that time was that he knew he needed some time to calm down. Now that my heart has calmed down, I might as well not go. Just do it if you think of it. Tao Tie turned around and headed southwest. He waved his hand and led the way: "Let's go." Tan Jinxuan, Mo Yuhan, Chu Yingying, Xiaoqian and their ghost follower were not surprised by Tao Tie's decision. It is obvious that you can reach Yangzhou in a few days by taking a boat down the canal, but if you insist on taking detours, it means that you don't really want to go to Yangzhou. The three people and one ghost had already prepared to turn around at any time. The secrets of heaven are layers of nets. The web is made up of the thread of destiny of each individual. If one line changes, it will easily cause changes in another line, and then lead to changes in one layer or even layers of networks. Tao Tie's decision to feint and turn southwest affected not only himself and his followers, but also the fate of countless people. The reason is that as Tao Tie's understanding of "Tao" becomes deeper and deeper, his mass in the Tianji layer network becomes larger and larger, and the distortion force he can create becomes larger and larger. In this way, it will naturally affect the fate of more and more people. This is why those who are truly good at the secrets of heaven do not try to guess the secrets easily. There are three kinds of Yi: change, simplicity, and immutability. But the first thing that comes to mind is change! The world is in motion, and the divine will is also in motion, without stopping for a moment. Yangzhou. The Fifth Prince, accompanied by his guest Pan Ran and his personal guards, took the Holy Son of the Wu Shi Demon Sect, Li Yan, and set off for the South China Sea. As the warship was sailing at high speed through the waves, the Fifth Prince looked back to the southwest, but in the end, the person he was waiting for did not arrive. "Pity." With a sigh, the Fifth Prince immediately calmed down and looked towards the southeast with a fighting spirit.
There is no sky, no land, and no sea. This time, without the most powerful of all the powerful people in charge, what kind of achievements can Dinghaiwei accomplish? What kind of achievements can Li Jie make? I don’t think it will be small! After all, if we don’t even dare to hope to achieve achievements that far surpass those of our ancestors, can we still be descendants of Taizu? Thinking of this, the Fifth Prince waved his right hand lightly. Without any instructions, the guest Pan Ran took two soldiers and threw the tied-up Li Yan, the Holy Son of the Wu Shi Demon Sect, into the sea. Life or death depends on the Son of God's own luck. If you can survive from a desperate situation, perhaps you can still achieve something. Beijing. Taiji Palace, Ganlu Palace. "Cough cough..." The emperor sat leaning back on the couch, reviewing memorials while covering his lips with his left fist and coughing repeatedly. "Cough cough..." On the other side of the couch, the queen was leaning back and coughing. The only eunuch left to serve in the harem, Da Diao Yanlishi, had an expression of inextricable sorrow and fear between his brows. The worry was naturally about the health of the emperor and empress. The fear also came from concern for the health of the emperor and empress. Although since Taizu, successive emperors of the Celestial Empire have governed the world with the idea of people-centeredness. But classes are there, distinctions are there, and it is inevitable that there will be distinctions. Therefore, the emperor and the empress are the two most honorable people in the world, and no one dares to refute this statement. But now, the two most noble people in the world have been seriously injured. What should we do? Don't say this is a secret and can't be told to anyone. Even if you tell it to others, few people will believe it. Li was thinking about all sorts of things. The emperor suddenly spoke up and asked lightly, "Li Shi, you have a man under your command named Wang Jin, right?" "Your Majesty, there is such a person." Li Shi quickly gathered his thoughts and answered the emperor's questions properly. The emperor asked again: "What do you think of this man? Can he be used?" Li Shi thought about it, then replied solemnly: "Your Majesty, Wang Jin has always been diligent and loyal, and his methods of doing things are particularly meticulous, and he rarely makes big mistakes." "Ah."
The emperor squeezed out a sound from his nose and pondered. After a moment, the emperor stood up from the couch, paced a few steps, and made a decision: "Go to the Political Affairs Hall and ask them, and tell them my opinion, whether the isolation of the land veins in Pingyuan County can be removed. There will be some backlash, and the national destiny cannot be damaged in vain, so the royal family will bear the responsibility. If the Political Affairs Hall thinks it is feasible, send Wang Jin to Pingyuan County to announce the decree, wait for Tao Tie, and then go with him to visit Baiwan Mountain." "This……" This matter was of great importance, so Li did not dare to accept the order directly and turned his head to look at the Queen. "See what I do?" The Queen obviously didn't agree with this. She held her breath, but she didn't want to embarrass Li Shi. She just snorted, "I'm not the Emperor. Whoever is the Emperor, you should listen to him." As she spoke, the queen gave the emperor a fierce look and said angrily, "Go back to your Daming Palace and sleep at night." After saying this, the queen got up and left angrily. This made Li, who was already hunched over, bend even lower, and a few drops of sweat flowed down both sides of his forehead. "Go." The emperor waved his hand to signal Li Shi to leave, and he went to chase the queen, to whom he owed a lot. Da Diao Dangli waited patiently for the emperor to leave the rear chamber before he set off for the government hall. Li was servile and subservient before the emperor and empress. In this deep palace, the ancestors of eunuchs and palace maids have a very high status, and they can hold their backs straight no matter where they go. Just as the emperor and empress would not ignore the red envelopes, they would not easily embarrass the eunuchs and palace maids under them. Everyone had their own reasons and had to seek shelter in the palace. As long as they did not do anything to harm the interests of the Celestial Empire, did not betray their own people, and did not let down the Emperor and the Empress, Li Shi would not be too harsh on the eunuchs and palace maids. It is enough to retain enough majesty. And Li Shi's majesty comes from both his identity as a great lord and his strength as a person with great supernatural powers! Therefore, once you enter the government hall, you gentlemen will not treat Li Shi with disdain. After hearing the question from His Majesty, Duke Wei, who had gradually shifted his focus to the Secretariat, was the first to speak up: "I think it's time to withdraw the method of isolating the earth veins. Any backlash should be borne by the country's destiny." "I second the motion." "Seconded." "..." With the unanimous passage of this resolution, the process of Zhongshu drafting the edict, Menxia reviewing it, and Shangshu executing it was quickly completed. When Deng Li returned to the back room of Ganlu Hall in Taiji Palace, he was holding the imperial edict that fulfilled the emperor's wishes. Wang Jin followed behind Li Shi. The excitement in his heart was one thing, but the calmness he showed was another. The emperor picked up the imperial edict, took a look at its contents, and was very satisfied.
Then he turned his attention to Wang Jin and asked seriously, "Wang Jin, why did you enter the palace back then?" Wang Jin immediately replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, when I was young, I accidentally fell down the mountain while playing and got hurt. I couldn't heal, so I entered the palace." "Yes, I understand." The emperor was not asking casually, but was trying to understand some background. In this world where the upper limit of power is extremely high but the laws of nature are chaotic and tend to be evil, one can turn bones into flesh and revive the dead, but will also be helpless in the face of certain problems. For example, if a monk's cultivation is completely wasted, he cannot recover or rebuild; For example, in the case of Wang Jin, although his physical injuries can be healed, his functions can never be restored. It seems as if he is destined to enter the palace and serve the nobles. The emperor, who was extremely skilled in the art of divination, naturally knew the reason. However, the more he knew, the angrier the emperor became. One day, the system of eunuchs will be completely abolished! Putting aside this matter that must be done in the future, the emperor said in a deep voice: "Wang Jin, after you go to Pingyuan County to announce the imperial edict this time, tell him my words. If you have dispelled your resentment, you will be the city god of Pingyuan County. If you have not dispelled your resentment, you will go to Baiwan Mountain. This is one of the options." "promise!" "Second, after Tao Tie, you only have eyes and ears, you know?" "Your Majesty, I know what I have learned and I will never forget it." "Third, after you go to Baiwan Mountain, you should not stay in the army, but follow Tao Tie and obey his command. Do you understand?" "I accept the decree." "Go." "promise!" After instructing Wang Jin, the emperor looked at Da Diao Dang Li Shi, took a deep breath, and sighed helplessly: "Go to Daming Palace." "promise." Li is silky and takes orders. Soon, the emperor's entourage left Ganlu Hall and Taiji Palace and moved back to Daming Palace. This move brought relief to many people. Especially the two Yang concubines. It is common knowledge that the queen is a powerful figure among powerful figures with extraordinary combat abilities. Her mother's family is the Duke of Wei's Mansion, and she is deeply loved by the emperor. Love is love, it is a personal matter. But the emperor always handled government affairs in Ganlu Palace, so it was no longer a private matter. It would be better if the time is shorter. As time goes on, too many people will definitely think that the emperor has decided to give the position of crown prince to the eldest princess!
The four words "the king is selfless" are a two-way constraint! Yuquan Mountain. The princess was not surprised at all to hear that Tao Tie turned back to the southwest and returned to Daming Palace with his father. These two things were within her expectations. However, the current situation in the southwest is rather delicate. It is stable but somewhat chaotic, chaotic but stable at the same time. The eldest princess really wanted to have a say. I am also afraid that I am doing too much and stretching my hands too far, which would be ugly. In the battle at the Beginningless Sea, she did too much and brought backlash. For the eldest princess, the backlash was not just Tao Tie’s slight doubts, but a subtle and unpredictable “force”. For example, this time, it was natural for the emperor to stay in Ganlu Palace, but some people "connected" it to the struggle for the throne, adding fuel to the fire, forcing the emperor to return to Daming Palace early. "Ugh!" Thinking of this, Li Yunshen felt guilty towards his father and mother. He sighed deeply and decided not to stay in the southwest anymore. Let's just watch it this way. Qiu Wanru, who was standing not far away, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. It’s really not good to walk too fast. southwest. Canglang River. The old turtle packed up everything and moved away without saying goodbye to anyone. Datong Mountain has been vacant for a long time. The power and interests that should be shared by the three states have been divided. Very suitable for the old turtle to move in. The group of shamans who worshipped the Great Emperor Zhenwu, led by the great shaman Zhu Zhang, worked busy for several months in Mount Dadong, surveying the terrain, setting up magic arrays, and finally built a temple dedicated to the Great Emperor Zhenwu. Lao Bie doesn't have to worry about anything, he can just move in with his luggage. However, the less he had to worry about something, the more unwilling the old turtle became. If there is a chance to be the Black Tortoise of the Four Symbols, who would like to be the Black Tortoise under the feet of the Great Emperor Zhenwu? The two are not the same concept! However, it is really difficult to transform from an animal into an elephant. Not only does one need a destiny that is strong enough to bear it, but one also needs tremendous opportunity. Before actually moving into Dadong Mountain, Lao Bie muttered to himself: "Will my chance come again?" (End of this chapter)
