Lu Qing was the eldest disciple of the former Si Tianjian Jianzheng, and everyone in the Demon Slayer Division called him eldest brother.
Yun Que didn't expect that the gentle senior brother back then would now become the supervisor of the Si Tianjian of Jin State.
Yun Que was surprised and couldn't understand it.
Emperor Yan died in the battle in the Demon Capital of the Northern Territory, and there was still a prince in the imperial city. Lu Qing could assist the prince in ascending to the throne and guard the imperial city.
But the Yan Kingdom fell too quickly.
The dynasty changed almost overnight and became the Jin Kingdom today.
The whereabouts of the crown prince of the Yan Kingdom are unknown, and Lu Qing, the elder brother of Si Tianjian, becomes the supervisor of the Jin Kingdom.
All this made Yun Que feel like he was in a dream.
And Mu Qingyao is actually Lu Qing's direct disciple.
If you think about it, Yun Que's previous joke turned out to be true. With his seniority, he really became Mu Qingyao's junior uncle.
"Don't you, the Emperor of Jin, know Lu Qing's identity?" Yun Que asked doubtfully.
"Of course I know. Master is the great disciple of the former Si Tianjian Jianzheng. Now he is assisting the Great Jin Dynasty. The current Holy Master is known for his generosity and does not stick to trivial matters. He has accepted many civil servants and generals from the previous dynasty and has never tried to wipe out the remnants of the previous dynasty. ." Mu Qingyao said.
Yun Que's eyebrows were always frowning.
He didn't know whether the current emperor was lenient or not, but Yun Que knew that Lu Qing was an upright person and would not easily surrender to the emperor of a foreign country.
Yun Que thought that Lu Qing had already stayed away from the imperial city with the disappearance of Yan State, either hiding incognito or assisting the prince of Yan State.
"The Emperor Yan surrendered the imperial city just after his death in battle. This is not like Lu Qing's style." Yun Que frowned and whispered, "Why was the Emperor of Jin able to easily attack the imperial city? What happened at that time."
Historical records:
The Emperor of Jin went to heaven to pray without wasting a single soldier. The people in the city saw a thick purple fog coming from the east that night. They understood that this was a sign of great prosperity and that the purple mist was coming from the east. So the people worked together to open the city gates and welcome The new emperor ascends the throne.
The Jin Emperor occupied the Imperial City of Tianqi without any bloodshed. From then on, the Jin Dynasty was established, and the people of the world lived and worked in peace and contentment. '
Although Yun Que was a vulgar martial artist, he knew very well that historical materials were entirely written by the victors. Of course, the deeds of the emperor could be written as beautifully as they wanted.
Mu Qingyao was silent for a moment after hearing this and said:
"I don't know what happened at that time, but my father mentioned it once. He said that the imperial city was in chaos that night. I asked him what the chaos was like, but he never said anything."
King Funan didn't say it, which meant that the imperial city was not only chaotic that night, but also full of blood.
How can it be possible to change dynasties without losing blood?
"Master once said that those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters, and the world will always belong to the common people."
Mu Qingyao saw the reason for Yun Que's doubts and said: "I think Master is a truly righteous person. If the last force of the Yan Kingdom stubbornly resists, I don't know how many years of fighting will continue. The war will only displace the people." The people actually don't care whether their families are destroyed or whether it's the Yan Dynasty or the Jin Dynasty, they just want to live a peaceful life."
Yun Que said nothing and nodded slightly.
Maybe Lu Qing's approach was right.
But for some reason, Yun Que felt more strange to his former senior brother.
"I know there is another important reason. Today's Holy Master is able to sit still and pray in heaven, which is actually something he can rely on." Mu Qingyao said.
"King Funan?" Yun Que asked.
Mu Qingyao shook her head and chuckled:
"Of course not my father. At that time, my father was just a fledgling young general. He could charge into battle, but he was far from being able to protect the country. The Holy One's real support was the national teacher."
"It seems that the Imperial Master is very powerful." Yun Que said.
Naturally, Yun Queyuan had no way of understanding the situation in the Dajin temple in a remote corner like Zhiyuan County.
However, the existence of the Imperial Master was well known to the people of Jin State, and it was rumored that he was a reclusive person from outside the world.
"The Imperial Master is a powerful Taoist man. He is very mysterious and rarely seen. I have only seen him two or three times. The Demon Subduing Formation in the Imperial City was personally arranged by the Imperial Master and is supervised by Si Tianjian. I guess On the night when the Holy One went to heaven to pray, the National Preceptor must have met the Master, and the two powerful men may have competed in cultivation."
Mu Qingyao exudes the fantasy that belongs only to girls, constructing an earth-shattering and unknown battle between two peerless strong men.
"As expected, your emperor has many talented people. No wonder he can easily replace Dayan. It seems that the Imperial Master and your father have known each other for a long time." Yun Que said.
"You are wrong. My father did not recognize the Imperial Advisor before. Your Majesty was once a prince in Dayan. My father was your Majesty's general. The Imperial Advisor appeared just before the attack on Tianqi Imperial City. From a sect outside the world." Mu Qingyao said.
Yun Que felt strange and said:
"How come a strong man from a foreign sect assists your emperor as soon as he comes here?"
"Perhaps the Imperial Master has realized that His Majesty is destined to be the emperor." Mu Qingyao didn't know the real story, so she could only say this.
Yun Que snorted.
He sneered at the word destiny.
Yun Que believed in everything in his life, except fate, let alone God.
In Yun Que's view, since the Imperial Master was willing to assist the Jin Emperor, he must have his own purpose.
Maybe he saw the general trend, and Dayan had no chance to take advantage of the situation.
"The Imperial Master has good eyesight and should be a smart person." Yun Que said.
"How can a person who can be a national preceptor be a fool? You are right this time. The national preceptor does have extraordinary eyesight. He saw my psychic body at a glance. He originally wanted to accept me as his direct disciple, but he was imprisoned. Master took the lead and learned that I had already bowed under the main gate of the prison, so the Imperial Master felt very sorry."
Mu Qingyao said with pride.
It is definitely a great honor to be competed by two powerful men in the imperial city to become a disciple.
"It turns out that the princess is still a sweet man." Yun Que said sourly.
Comparing people to death, comparing goods and throwing away goods.
Princess Lingyun was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. She lived a lifetime of prosperity and wealth, even the emperor loved her. She was also gifted with a psychic body, and two powerful men in the country rushed to accept her as a disciple. It was simply It is like the pearl of Jin Dynasty.
Look at yourself again.
He started going to the battlefield to slay monsters when he was two years old. He spent his whole life in the bloody storms from childhood to adulthood. The knife never left his hand, and he never knew when he would lose his life. He was busy for many years, and in the end he just became a gangster in a small town.
Or the kind that doesn’t even have a monthly salary.
Yun Que wanted to point his finger at God and yell. They were all human beings, so why were they so different?
Mu Qingyao naturally heard Yunque's tone of saying the grapes were sour because he couldn't eat them, so he chuckled and said:
"The Imperial Master also gave me a hosta, which was a defensive weapon that could operate on its own. Unfortunately, it broke when I was besieged by monsters. The hosta was really beautiful. The Imperial Master took it off his head and gave it to me at that time. mine."
"A grown man still wears a hosta?" Yun Que asked.
"Who said that the Imperial Preceptor is a man, and the Imperial Preceptor is a woman, a very beautiful woman." Mu Qingyao said with envy.
"Female Imperial Preceptor?" Yun Que asked in surprise.
"Of course, what do you think."
Mu Qingyao clasped her fingers and counted her family treasures and said: "The neighboring Shaowu Kingdom has always been eyeing the Jin Dynasty and is ready to make a move. The reason why it has never dared to attack the Jin Kingdom is mainly because of the three pillars of the Jin Dynasty, the National Master! Jian Zheng! King Funan!"
After a long conversation with Mu Qingyao, Yun Que learned a lot about the current court.
But he wasn't interested.
The temple was not his territory, let alone his battlefield.
Instead of playing tricks with those sophisticated civil and military ministers, it would be easier to just kill a few monsters.
It's not that Yun Que doesn't have scheming, but that his scheming is far more profound than others, but the fact of this confrontation between scheming is tiring.
Not interesting at all.
If you want to compete, you have to compete with swords. You chop me and I chop you to see who dies first.
How simple!
What a scheming comparison.
And Yun Que knew one thing very well.
No matter how deep the calculations, how clever the arrangements, and how insidious traps are in this world, they all turn out to be nothing in the face of absolutely powerful power.
"It's almost time. We will set off in two days and enter Bashan City." Yun Que's voice gradually became deeper.
Bashan City is the last level and the most difficult level.
In fact, Yun Que was not sure whether he could reach the imperial city alive.
The more he came into contact with the Red Lotus Sect, the more Yun Que became wary of the existence of this cult.
The Red Lotus Sect can even win over traitors like Liu Shiyi from the Demon Slayer Division, which shows how far the Red Lotus Sect's tentacles are spread.
Mu Qingyao nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said:
"If you can return to the Imperial City, you should go see Master Jianzheng. He should recognize you. Maybe Master can help you remember the lost memory of January."
"I don't want to see Lu Qing for the moment." Yun Que said.
Perhaps it was Liu Shiyi's death that made Yun Que feel more distant from his old friend in Si Tianjian.
Of course he recognized Lu Qing.
But Lu Qing will definitely not recognize himself when he grows up now.
Mu Qingyao didn't dissuade him too much. She was a considerate girl and respected Yun Que's choice.
"I know you have difficulties. Colleagues from the previous dynasty will inevitably be embarrassed when we meet today. Even Master Jianzheng can't create the Demon Slaying Division of the past. It seems that I have extravagant hopes. Yun Que, you don't belong to Dayan." If you don't belong to Dajin, you will always be free." Mu Qingyao said softly.
Tying Yun Que to Si Tianjian to rebuild the Demon Slayer Division was Mu Qingyao's idea when she first met Yun Que.
Since they met, Mu Qingyao's thoughts have gradually changed.
She wanted Yun Que to be free forever and soar between the vast world.
"Let's go find Chang Wei for a drink."
Yun Que stood up and took Mu Qingyao to Chang Wei's residence.
Since most of the houses in the village were destroyed, Chang Wei now lives in a blind man's hut.
He was drinking wine in the room when he looked up and saw Yun Que coming in. Chang Wei quickly stood up and said:
"The second master hasn't gone to bed yet, would you like something to drink?"
The blind man grinned when he heard it. His tone sounded like the first master meeting the second master. It was exactly the same as his usual humility in front of the first master.
Ever since he witnessed the fierce battle between Yun Que and the maid, Chang Wei now wished he could run around Yun Que and hide as far away as he could.
The second master, who looks like a humanoid monster, is really terrifying.
Yun Que was not polite, sat down and poured himself a glass of wine.
"The master is in Bashan City. Does he have any enemies?"
Chang Wei picked his ears and thought he heard wrongly. Shouldn't he ask if he had any acquaintances? How to ask enemies.
"There are acquaintances, and there are also enemies." Chang Wei said with a smile.
"It's good if you have enemies. Tell us who they are and how big your hatred is." Yun Que said.
Chang Wei's smile gradually solidified, his face became ferocious, and he said:
"A life-and-death feud that caused my wife and family to be separated and destroyed!"
Yun Que became very interested and said: "The boss turns out to be a man with a story. Tell me who caused your family to be destroyed."
Chang Wei let out a long sigh, drank a large bowl of wine, puffed on the smell of wine, and told about an unknown past.
