Nightwatcher

Lin'an grew up with Emperor Yongxing since he was a child, and he knows his character well.

Seeing his courteous attitude, and picking it up at this moment, he knew that there was something urgent to ask for.

When he was still the crown prince, if he had something to ask his father, and it was not convenient for him to come forward, he would ask her to come forward to find his father. .

After all, she, the second princess, is the most favored among the princes and daughters.

"Brother Emperor, speak directly."

Lin'an looked around for a while, there were no seats in the imperial study room, except for the seat given by the emperor, otherwise everyone had to stand here.

Emperor Yongxing walked up to his sister and made a trick:

"Do you know how to solve the trick of calling for donations?"

Lin'an was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the emperor's brother called her here because he wanted her to give advice.

Lin'an immediately felt the joy of being "rewarded". Fortunately, he went to Huaiqing in the afternoon and said immediately:

"It needs someone with enough prestige to call. The elder brother of the crown prince has just ascended to the great treasure, and the prestige is not enough. It is inevitable that he will not be able to suppress the officials."

Emperor Yongxing was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect his sister's wisdom to advance by leaps and bounds without knowing it.

Then he asked along the topic: "Then Lin'an thinks, who has enough reputation?"

Lin'an quoted what Shou Huaiqing said:

"The only ones who have the prestige in the court to make the officials willing to donate money are Jian Zheng and Xu Qi'an.

"Jian is a real prestigious person, while Xu Qi'an has a more vicious reputation. No one dares to provoke him."

No matter how tough a scholar is, he won't be so stupid as to beat him to death for a peak martial artist who kills the Duke of the Kingdom and kills the emperor.

"When did Lin'an become so discerning?"

Emperor Yongxing praised unexpectedly, and then said:

"I want to ask you to be a lobbyist and ask Xu Qi'an to come forward to help. Alas, you also know that I have just ascended the throne not long ago, and my fledgling is still fledgling. Now the imperial court is troubled by internal and external troubles, but there is another natural disaster, and I urgently need money to relieve the disaster."

It turned out to be this matter. Lin'an showed a rare wry smile, and his round oval face was full of frustration:

"He's not in the capital, nor has he ever contacted me."

When she said this, she felt a little uncomfortable, as if being forced to admit that she didn't have enough status in the dog slave's heart.

Emperor Yongxing didn't care about her loss, he just waited for this moment and hurriedly said:

"No, Lin'an, you don't know, he's back, he must be back. In the whole Dafeng, except for him, there is no martial artist in the Transcendent Realm who will appear in the Sitianjian."

Lin'an suddenly opened his eyes wide, and his breathing was obviously rapid, followed by great surprise and excitement, he grabbed Emperor Yongxing's arm:

"Really, is he really back?"

Emperor Yongxing nodded: "At dusk, the Sitianjian had an aura fluctuating in the Transcendent Realm. It was probably him. I have already sent someone to inquire."

Jianzheng waved his hand, and the teleportation patterns lit up under Arhat's body, Qingguang engulfed him from bottom to top, and disappeared in the gossip platform in an instant.

After suppressing the love-saving Arhat underground, the prisoner's wrinkled old face showed a little smile:

"Cultivation is progressing well."

Jianzheng, you have something to say, Xu Qi'an muttered in his heart, and looked at his brows with affection, seemingly silly and sweet, but in fact he was a sick and delicate Luo Yuheng.

He coughed, looked away, and said:

"You asked the national teacher to tell me that all the variables are in this winter, what is the meaning of this?"

Hearing this, the prisoner took a sip from his wine glass and said slowly:

"Whether Dafeng Jiangshan changes hands, whether my old bones can live another five hundred years, and whether you, the lucky one who has half the country's destiny, will die for the country. It all depends on this winter."

Xu Qi'an's face was heavy: "You used the method of "destiny" to spy on the secret of heaven, and what conclusion did you draw?"

The prisoner said angrily, "I use my brain."

Xu Qi'an thought in silence for more than ten seconds, and guessed: "You mean, the rebels in Yunzhou will rise up this winter."

After Luo Yuheng told this sentence, he had a similar speculation.

The supervisor nodded, satisfied with his answer, and said slowly:

"Don't you think the progress of collecting dragon energy is a bit easy? Although Xu Pingfeng was backlashed by luck, and he was afraid that I would set up a situation to kill him, so he didn't dare to attack you personally. But with his methods, if he wants to deal with you, he doesn't necessarily need Do it yourself.

"It's definitely not going to make it easy for you."

Xu Qi'an asked: "Then what has he been doing during this time?"

He already had the answer in his heart.

"Preparing for rebellion; trying to win over allies."

The prisoner stared at the west: "It's just like when Emperor Wuzong wooed Buddhism and helped him rebel."

Xu Qi'an's heart sank: "Buddhism agrees?"

The supervisor smiled and said: "Otherwise, why do you think I wanted to fight with the Gala tree? Alando's Hinayana and Hinayana disputes are becoming increasingly fierce, and the contradictions are extremely deep. The Buddha fell asleep and kept the Bodhisattvas and Arhats in a confrontation.

"But it also made them fearful, as long as the conflicts intensified and reached the point where they had to break out, Alando would have internal strife.

"Under such a background, transferring the contradiction is the best choice."

When domestic conflicts cannot be suppressed, the best way is to fight abroad. Xu Qian sighed in his heart, human nature has something in common.

Luo Yuheng raised his eyebrows: "Buddhism has already suffered in this regard back then, are you afraid that Xu Pingfeng will turn back on his promises like you? You know, the Dafeng court is the most disreputable."

The Witch God Cult gave a thumbs up.

Xu Qi'an thought happily in bitterness.

"It's different this time!"

The supervisor took a sip of his wine and said slowly:

"After the Battle of Shanhaiguan, Buddhism flourished like a raging fire, while the remnants of the northern demons and southern demons fell into a slump. Dafeng's national power was gradually weakened due to the loss of luck of the dynasty.

"This year, the Witch God almost broke free from the seal and expanded his territory, which severely damaged the vitality of the monsters. Wei Yuan sent his troops to Jingshan City, and all three parties suffered heavy losses. Now except for the lurking remnants of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom, and the sparsely populated Gu family.

"All parties are in a weak state.

"This is the opportunity that Buddhism has been waiting for. This is the situation in the world that did not exist when Wu Zong rebelled."

Luo Yuheng squinted his beautiful eyes, "Therefore, Buddhism doesn't care that Xu Pingfeng will not keep his promise."

After a pause, she asked in confusion, "Buddhism wants to unify Kyushu?"

If it is just preaching the Central Plains, it is bound to repeat the mistakes of Emperor Wuzong's time.

The supervisor didn't answer her.

Xu Qi'an thought of Wei Yuan's suicide note for no reason, and thought of what Da Qingyi said on it:

This world is far more cruel than you imagined!

Combined with Confucian sages to seal the Gu God and the Witch God; even if Wei Yuan risked his life, he would re-seal the Witch God.

He suddenly realized that there was a higher level of secret hidden in the mist that his eyes could not reach.

And this secret, even Luo Yuheng, the head of Renzong, the peak powerhouse, doesn't know it!

"Then who told Duke Wei?"

A figure flashed in Xu Qi'an's mind, and he had an answer in his heart.

Zhao Shou!

"Confucianism has been passed down for more than two thousand years and has never been broken. As the leader of Confucianism today, Zhao Shou knows a lot of secrets, not less than Jianzheng. But he is usually too low-key, no, the entire Confucianism is too low-key .”

Xu Qi'an took a breath, suppressed the scattered thoughts, and said:

"I've been wondering about one thing, Jianzheng, did you know that Xu Pingfeng and the lineage of Qianlong City are hidden in Yunzhou?"

If he knew earlier, why didn't he kill Xu Pingfeng earlier and destroy the lineage five hundred years ago.

The supervisor seemed to see through his mind, and said lightly:

"I am not omniscient and omnipotent, and Chaopin cannot be omniscient and omnipotent.

"As for now, Yunzhou no longer belongs to Dafeng."

He said, looking to the south, and said with a low smile:

"Since you have reached Chaopin, I will tell you some secrets. Back then, I supported Emperor Wuzong Qing Jun, and started from the fiefdom of Wuzong in the south to declare independence.

"Using that fiefdom as the foundation, we will develop step by step, encroaching on the surrounding states all the way to the capital.

"Why didn't the teacher kill me in advance?"

Xu Qi'an's spirit perked up when he heard that the secret five hundred years ago was a taboo of Dafeng, the secret of the first generation was blocked by the present, and Emperor Wuzong also destroyed the history books and related records of that year.

Today, it is impossible to find any clues with any paper ancient books.

If we can understand how Emperor Wuzong successfully rebelled under the pressure of the first supervisor, we may be able to use this to deduce Xu Pingfeng's detailed plan.

"For second-rank qi trainers, the main purpose of supporting an emperor and serving as a servant of the dragon is to refine qi luck. Occupy the land of a continent and practice the qi luck of a continent.

"In this process, it will become more and more powerful. This is the origin of the name "Qi Practitioner". Until the entire Central Plains is eaten away and a dynasty is established, it is a first-rank destiny master.

"A Qi trainer is almost invincible in his own territory."

No wonder Jian Zheng is invincible in Dafeng territory. Xu Qi'an understood:

"You mean, Xu Pingfeng is invincible in Yunzhou? When you realized that he was hiding in Yunzhou, he had already quietly refined Yunzhou. But, you didn't find out?"

The supervisor said indifferently: "When they stole luck, I also didn't find out."

Xu Pingfeng was able to steal luck, relying on the ability of Heavenly Gu to "move stars and change battles", that is to say, Xu Pingfeng also has high-level Heavenly Gu masters or top-level magic tools with corresponding abilities.

Xu Qi'an was stunned.

The supervisor continued:

"But warlocks have a fatal flaw. Once they lose their territory, their strength will decline. The so-called invincibility is relative. Even in the Dafeng territory, I can't defeat and kill multiple first-ranks at the same time, even the first generation. .

"That's why the Bodhisattvas of the Buddhist sect helped each other and restrained the first generation, so that we could fight all the way to the capital."

Today's Dafeng situation is almost the same as back then. Xu Qi'an suddenly realized:

"So, Xu Pingfeng wants to replicate what Emperor Wuzong and you did back then."

And it has succeeded, Fomen once again played the role of a tool man.

Warlocks are really a system cursed by fate! Xu Qi'an felt emotional.

When the father and son had a showdown, he had already learned from the "improper son" that the reason for the warlock's apprenticeship was to prevent the system from being cut off.

It is the nature of creatures to pursue a higher level of scenery, which will inevitably cause apprentices to backstab their masters, generation after generation, and repeated cycles of descendants and grandchildren.

Although Wu Fu is vulgar, but when he thinks about it carefully, Wu Fu is actually the happiest.

Not to mention Taoism and warlocks, if you want to get started in the Buddhist system, you must first observe the precepts for three years, there are too many rules and regulations.

The Gu clan's power comes from the Gu gods, not a system in the traditional sense.

Looking at the wizard so far, there are no major flaws.

"If Xu Pingfeng is in Yunzhou, is he invincible?"

Xu Qi'an brought the topic back.

Jianzheng smiled and said: "Just send more than two second-rankers to fight, contain him, send troops to attack again, and take back Yunzhou, and then his "invincible state" can be broken."

That's why they want to form an alliance with Buddhism. Xu Qi'an nodded, and Jian Zheng's words were actually telling him the way to defeat the warlock.

After talking about the business, Xu Qi'an said:

"I think the task of unlocking Shenshu is too difficult, and it cannot be completed in just two or three months."

He was euphemistically asking if there was any way to quickly unlock the rest of the magic nails.

Jian Zheng answered irrelevantly: "Collecting dragon energy is your core task right now, don't worry about the rest."

Xu Qi'an nodded and said in a low voice:

"One more thing, the ancient corpse in the underground palace outside Yongzhou City was recently exterminated."

The supervisor let out a "hmm" and looked into the distance without saying a word.

Xu Qi'an was already used to the way of getting along with warlocks, so he didn't continue to ask questions, just mentioned it.

"I heard that Caiwei is going to teach apprentices?"

He asked without words.

The supervisor didn't answer.

"Has Senior Brother Sun come back? He disappeared after the battle outside Yongzhou City."

The supervisor said angrily:

"Let's go if you have nothing to do."

Always talk about some unpleasant topics.

"Jianzheng, if I use dragon energy to warm the Taiping Saber, how long will it take to reach the level of the Zhenguo Sword?" Xu Qi'an still has questions to ask, and refuses to leave.

"It's impossible in the short term, but it's enough to let it transform into a semi-finished magic weapon." Supervisor replied.

Xu Qi'an asked a few more questions, all of which were answered in detail by the supervisor.

Luo Yuheng looked at the sky and smiled sweetly:

"Xu Lang, follow me back to Lingbao Temple for double cultivation."

Xu Qi'an let out an "oh".

At this time, Chu Caiwei emerged from the steps, bouncing around in a yellow skirt, and the big-eyed cute girl was as lively and cute as ever.

"You're back!"

She looked at Xu Qi'an with a smile and said something, and then said:

"Lin'an and Huaiqing have come to Sitianjian and want to see you."

Luo Yuheng narrowed his beautiful eyes.

Xu Qi'an glanced at Master Guoshi, and was dumbfounded.

"laugh!"

The prisoner chuckled lightly, telling you that if you don't leave, you will die.

downstairs.

Li Lingsu said in disbelief:

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect Brother Yang to have such a tragic past, then Xu Qi'an repeatedly took your chances, he is really not a son of man.

"In order to support him, the supervisor abandoned his own disciple like a shoe, hateful!"

It doesn't matter if the Si Tianjian doesn't wait. Yang Qianhuan sighed:

"Brother Li's experience is also heartbreaking. I won't be able to hold my head up in front of him in the future."

"Don't, don't say it"

Li Lingsu's feet scraped vigorously on the ground.

The two were silent for a moment, and there was a feeling of sympathy for each other.

Yang Qianhuan hummed: "He will have retribution."

Li Lingsu nodded vigorously: "If you don't believe me, look up, God will spare you."

After a few seconds, he said angrily: "It's fine that he has a confidante like Princess Zhenbei, but even the national teacher wants to double cultivate with him."

? A big question mark floated across Yang Qianhuan's mind.

"Luo Yuheng and Xu Qi'an are both cultivators?"

"Don't you say you are angry." Li Lingsu nodded: "The princess is so beautiful. I have never seen a woman who can be called as beautiful as her in my life. The national teacher is also a rare beauty in the world."

Yang Qianhuan was at a loss, he didn't know the secret that Xu Qi'an was pregnant with the fate of the country, but this incident did not make Yang Qianhuan feel jealous.

Whether it is a national teacher or a princess, in Senior Brother Yang's opinion, there are not even a few people in the capital who shout "Xu Yinluo is a hero" to make people jealous.

"By the way, I heard that Xu Qi'an still has a lot of confidante in the capital, brother Yang, do you know the details?"

Li Lingsu asked curiously. He believed that strange women like the national teacher and princess are rare in the world.

But Xu Qi'an couldn't have every confidante be so stunning.

Among Li Lingsu's lovers, each one is a beautiful woman.

If Luo Yuheng and Wangfei were excluded, his confidante would be no worse than Xu Qi'an.

Yang Qian thought about it, and said:

"It's not very clear, I never cared about trivial matters in this area. But Xu Qi'an is indeed quite attractive to women."

Li Lingsu asked: "How are those women's looks?"

Yang Qianhuan chuckled and said, "It's just vulgar fans, I've never looked at them directly."

Because it has been facing away.

So disdainful, Li Lingsu knew it.

At this time, Li Miaozhen and others went back and forth, and came out with a woman with loose hair and a linen robe.

Li Lingsu guessed that this slovenly woman was the "Zhong Li" that the junior sister called.

Such a scruffy woman naturally couldn't catch the eyes of the Holy Son. He calmly withdrew his gaze and observed the expressions of the members of the Tiandihui.

Seeing that they were not ridiculed or joking, Shengzi secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Li Miaozhen introduced:

"She is Zhong Li, the fifth disciple of Jianzheng, a fifth-grade warlock."

Considering that the bad luck is personal privacy, she didn't tell the scumbag brother.

Li Lingsu let out a "hmm" and followed the group to leave the ground.

When climbing up the stairs, Li Miaozhen reminded: "You two had better walk close to the wall."

"Why?"

"The road is slippery!"

Li Lingsu looked at her like a fool, but didn't take it to heart.

Thinking that he is a fourth-grade Nascent Soul, afraid of slippery roads?

As a result, after walking a few steps, Shengzi suddenly felt his feet slip and rolled down the stone steps with a "gululu".

He grinned in pain, and said:

"Also, it's really slippery."

This time, he paid great attention to his feet and looked down at the road from time to time.

After walking up thirty steps without any risk, the weird foot slip appeared again, and the Son rolled all the way to the bottom, falling so badly that even his mother didn't recognize him.

"I told you to walk against the wall!" Li Miaozhen laughed.

Heng Yuan opened his mouth, and looked back at Li Miaozhen behind him, she was usually very serious.

But after reuniting with senior brother Li Lingsu, his heart darkened.

Li Lingsu raised his head and looked at Miao Youfang who also did not stick to the wall:

"Do you feel slippery?"

Miao Youfang turned somersault on the stairs: "It's not slippery."

Chu Yuanzhen, who had a lot of drama with this guy, took a look at Miao Youfang.

Li Lingsu thought for a while and said, "I won't go, you guys go up first."

He looked around vigilantly, suspecting that Li Miaozhen was plotting against him, but he had no evidence.

"My senior brother is a flirtatious man, and he is promiscuous everywhere. Occasionally, let him know the dangers of the world."

Li Miaozhen gave his reasons through voice transmission.

Hengyuan thought for a while and agreed with her statement.

Chu Yuanzhen felt that something was wrong, and said via voice transmission:

"Don't you think Xu Qi'an is also promiscuous?"

Li Miaozhen asked in surprise, "Is there?"

Chu Yuanzhen: "."

After watching the four of them leave, Li Lingsu was relieved.

"Zhong Li is a fifth-grade sorcerer, called a prophet. A sorcerer of this level will be plagued by bad luck and affect the people around him."

Suddenly, a deep voice sounded behind him.

Li Lingsu looked back and saw a figure from behind.

"I see!"

Li Lingsu felt that the behavior of showing people with the back of his head was somewhat familiar, and at the same time suddenly realized.

Immediately, he was a little unconvinced and said, "Then why was I the only one who fell down?"

He suddenly stopped talking, with a look of eating a dead mouse.

This time, Li Lingsu returned to the ground without any crisis. The moment he pushed open the gate leading to the ground, Yang Qianhuan teleported simultaneously and appeared behind him, still facing him.

"Where did they go?"

Li Lingsu found Miao Youfang waiting at the entrance, so he asked.

Miao Youfang said:

"Just now I heard the warlock and Daoist Li talking in the lobby, it seems that two princesses have come."

He shrugged and said with a wry smile: "I'm just a grassroots person, I dare not meet that kind of big man."
