Immortality in the Great Qian Dynasty

Hu Lieyuan's face was extremely gloomy.

Zhou Wenjing hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, if you make a mistake, it would be too..."

"What if you are not wrong?" Hu Lieyuan snorted, "Who has seen this letter?"

Zhou Wenjing smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "Look now, only this humble minister has seen it. He didn't even let his disciples see it."

"... Yeah." Hu Lieyuan nodded slowly.

The envelope was sealed, obviously not to be seen by others, and his disciples would not have the courage to open it privately.

Then after I saw it, only Zhou Wenjing would see it.

Thinking of this, Hu Lieyuan snorted and said, "Don't be bitter, I won't kill you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhou Wenjing said hurriedly.

This matter really shouldn't be spread outside. It's too private and too horrifying. If it gets out, the emperor's face will be gone.

Hu Lieyuan waved his hand, frowned and thought.

"Your Majesty..." Zhou Wenjing said hesitantly.

Hu Lieyuan glanced at him.

Zhou Wenjing felt awe in his heart.

Although the emperor would not silence the witness, he still wanted to kill me after knowing such a secret.

"Speak." Hu Lieyuan snorted.

Zhou Wenjing said, "Why not... wait and see."

Hu Lieyuan frowned and said, "Don't do it?"

Zhou Wenjing shook his head, "First find a pretext and solve it quietly, so as not to make a fuss and attract attention."

"Hmm..." Hu Lieyuan nodded slowly.

He took a long breath and paced in the hall.

His boiling mood slowly calmed down and he regained his composure.

He really shouldn't be impulsive and be overwhelmed by the news. If he acted rashly, it would indeed attract everyone's attention.

That would be even more embarrassing, embarrassing himself and the royal family.

Zhou Wenjing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him like this.

The news just now was too shocking. The emperor was inevitably furious for a while, and thus lost his mind and made a stupid move.

"Well, I already know about this." Hu Lieyuan said in a deep voice: "Don't make it public."

"Yes." Zhou Wenjing nodded hurriedly: "Then I will investigate secretly first to see if I can find any clues."

"No need." Hu Lieyuan waved his hand.

Zhou Wenjing was stunned.

Hu Lieyuan hummed: "I will find a way to confirm it."

"Yes." Zhou Wenjing nodded solemnly.

Hu Lieyuan waved his hand.

Zhou Wenjing clasped his fists and bowed, then left the hall.

He regretted it secretly.

He could have stayed out of this matter, but he was eager to make a contribution and took a step closer, leading to the current result.

He should have stayed out of the matter in the forbidden palace. With his own authority, he could have left Yunjing and avoided it.

But he failed to wake up in time, and was so focused on making contributions that he fell into this dangerous vortex.

As the saying goes, being with the emperor is like being with a tiger. You have to be extremely careful when doing things around the emperor. You may be killed at any time, just like this time.

If you are not vigilant enough, you can easily lose your life.

And now, the emperor has already had murderous intentions, how can you save yourself?

When he thought of this, he thought of the name on the letter, and his face sank again, feeling that the world was too bizarre.

Who would have thought that the two concubines were actually disciples of the Wentian Sect?

If it was the eunuchs, it would not be surprising. After all, the disciples of the Wentian Sect are everywhere. The eunuchs are very depressed. If they can see the supernatural, they may have no ability to resist and believe in it and become disciples of the Wentian Sect.

But why is it the concubine?

The concubine is in the inner palace, and she can be said to be pampered, with fine clothes and food, and luxurious enjoyment. How could she surrender to the Wentian Sect?

Now the most curious thing is, were they disciples of the Wentian Sect before entering the forbidden palace, or did they become disciples of the Wentian Sect after entering the palace?

If it was before entering the palace, it means that there is a big loophole in the forbidden palace. If it was after the forbidden palace, it also means that there is a big loophole.

No matter how you look at it, it makes people feel cold.

If the Wentian Sect is like this, what about other sects? Will they also have the ability to plant spies among the concubines?

What would the emperor think when he saw this?

If it were me, I would probably have trouble sleeping and eating.

The person beside me turned out to be a disciple of the Wentian Sect. Which concubine could I trust? Would she suddenly attack me between the bed and the brother?

This is simply a great torture.

Thinking of this, Zhou Wenjing's face became more gloomy and ugly.

Once the emperor can't sleep well, once there is something wrong, he may vent his anger on others, and it is very likely to be on himself.

"Hey, Lao Zhang, have you heard about it?"

"What did you hear about? This is nonsense!"

"Yuzhu Peak."

"Yuzhu Peak...? I haven't heard about it. Where is Yuzhu Peak?"

"Hey, you don't even know Yuzhu Peak. It's not far from the city."

"Yuzhu Peak... is there anything good?"

"The monk Fakong opened a temple in Yuzhu Peak and built Yuzhu Temple. Haven't you heard about it?"

"... Impossible?"

"Hey, Lao Zhang, you are really out of touch with the news."

"Stop talking nonsense. Tell me what's going on?"

"Words are not enough. Let's go."

"Yuzhu Peak?"

"Yes, go and see Yuzhu Peak with your own eyes and see the temple of the monk."

"... I don't believe in Buddhism."

"No problem, just take a look."

"My legs are not good, I'm afraid..."

"Don't climb the peak, just take a look at the foot of the mountain."

"..."

"A jar of peach blossom wine!"

"Let's go!"

Two old men with white beards and eyebrows came out of the restaurant. They had just finished breakfast and were chatting while walking out of the city.

They left the south gate and walked about ten miles, then they found something strange.

After walking ten miles, they no longer took the official road, but took a small path that led to the nearby forest.

It was originally a remote path, but they actually ran into several groups of people, who gathered in groups of three or two and talked and laughed.

From time to time, some people stopped and sat by the path to rest, and they all talked about Yuzhu Peak.

Obviously, they were all going to Yuzhu Peak.

So the two found a group of people and approached them to talk.

"This Yuzhu Peak is a Taoist temple granted by the emperor. It is said to be comparable to Xingnan Peak in Daqian. You must see it."

"Brother Tan, have you been to Xingnan Peak?"

"Hehe... I have been there."

"Brother Tan, can you go to Daqian?"

Daqian and Dayun are isolated and cannot communicate with each other. There is the Great Guangming Mountain Range between the mountains and the city wall on the plains.

So the people of Dayun and Daqian almost cut off contact.

"We have started trading with Daqian." The gray-haired old man was energetic and his eyes were bright: "I followed him and opened my eyes."

"Old Tan, you have a good son." Someone sighed.

This Tan He's son is engaged in weaving. He has a huge business and is connected to major cities in Dayun. He can also do Daqian.

"Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning. What can a businessman say?" Tan He smiled indifferently: "Daqian is indeed different from our Dayun. It is more refined, especially Shenjing, which is as prosperous as our Yunjing, and the extravagance is three times stronger."

"Oh——?" More than a dozen people stared at him curiously.

Tan He sighed: "If our two dynasties can completely open up communication, it will be a blessing for us ordinary people."

Everyone nodded.

Dayun is a martial arts, but no matter how martial it is, it knows that war will kill people, especially ordinary people. It is better to be a dog in peace than a man in chaos.

"I went to Xingnan Peak and it was really eye-opening. It's amazing!" Tan He looked in the direction of Yuzhu Peak: "If Yuzhu Peak can be like Xingnan Peak, it will be a great fortune for the people of Yunjing!"
