"Young courage is so valuable." The voice in the mirror suddenly sighed.
Zhuang Gaoxian did not admit that his courage was not as good as Jiang Wang's.
Of course, he couldn't be like Jiang Wang, who broke away from the national system, gave up all glory, faced all dangers alone, and only wanted the freedom to hold the sword.
Of course, he was unwilling to give up everything he had and go directly to the Eastern Region, intercept and kill the person on the spot, and face all the consequences of this move. Even if he is much stronger than Jiang Wang.
But it’s not about courage, it’s about determination.
Jiang Wang wanted to kill him because he had deep hatred in his heart and a blood feud. He wanted to kill Jiang Wang more just to eliminate threats and eliminate hidden dangers. When he feels the need, he will act without hesitation. When he thinks the gains outweigh the losses, he just endures in silence.
But after thinking about it, weighing the pros and cons, isn’t it just the hesitation brought about by time?
"I think true courage lies in the great cause we are undertaking." Zhuang Gaoxian said: "It is moving forward perseveringly in the darkness even if no one understands it."
"I'm so happy that you can agree with our ideals from the bottom of your heart." The voice in the mirror said in a not very happy tone, and then asked: "What are you going to do now?"
Zhuang Gaoxian said: "First of all, Zhuang Guo's national defense formation must be established as soon as possible. Otherwise, if I fail to deal with him and wait for him to become Dongzhen, I will never have peace."
The voice in the mirror said: "Of course we are not short of these resources, and we are happy to provide them to our friends. But they need to be delivered slowly and in a reasonable way without showing any trace. The people staring at us are more serious than you think. Much more.”
The Man in the Mirror emphasizes the current limitations of their organization. The move to erase the traces behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons was already a big risk.
Zhuang Gaoxian also ordered it as long as resources.
As the emperor of a country and the leader of the Zhuang Kingdom's resurgence, he understands the relationship between benefits and costs very well. He was not willing to ask for too much from this terrible organization. He is also afraid that in the end, even if he spends all his money, he will not be able to pay it back.
At this moment, he was sitting on the lonely throne, looking down at the empty palace in front of him, and said without any emotion: "Before taking action, we must first find a way to get rid of Wu Bingji's gaze. The last time he broke into the palace directly, his malice towards me was gone. It’s too obvious.”
"Wu Bing has..." The voice in the mirror pondered the name for a moment without further comment.
Wu Bing no longer has any ill intentions toward Zhuang Gaoxian. In other words, in the eyes of this great master of Legalism, he never sees a specific person, but only clings to a certain thing. Is it legal? Is it legal?
As for how to get rid of the gaze of the ruler of the underground palace...
Starting with the responsibilities of the underground palace is obviously a good choice.
When Wu Bing's gaze had to be directed somewhere, he would naturally relax his gaze on Emperor Zhuang.
For example...disaster.
Of course, this is by no means a simple matter. This is a game for the brave. You must hold your head in your hand and walk on the tip of the knife.
The person in the mirror is looking forward to Zhuang Gaoxian's performance and how this hero who rules all the people will "do it cleanly". He likes to be clean.
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the hall.
The disturbance of the man in the mirror disappeared in time, leaving no trace of observation behind, giving Zhuang Gaoxian enough privacy and respect. Of course, it should be said on the other hand that people like Zhuang Gaoxian will never allow themselves to live in the eyes of others all day long.
The hoarse voice of the Chief of the Criminal Investigation Department sounded outside the hall: "Your Majesty, Ku Jue, a monk from the Xuankong Temple in the East Holy Land of Buddhism, appeared outside Yinge City! I have negotiated with you many times, but he ignored it."
Zhuang Gaoxian once suspected that he had heard wrongly. On the dragon chair, he slightly raised his head: "What?"
…
…
Han Ling used Jiang Wang in his left hand and Bai Yuxia in his right hand, flying across the mountains and rivers, throwing them across the border.
"Is there anything I need to convey to you?" Han Ling asked calmly.
Jiang Wang cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Han, take care."
Then he turned around and walked away.
Bai Yuxia remained silent and followed closely.
The figures of the two young men in the wilderness were so upright, and they walked towards the distant mountains without looking back.
He had met Jiang Wang when he met the Holy Spirit for the first time, and he had also seen Jiang Wang when he bid farewell to the king for the last time.
These few short years are more exciting than many people's lifetimes.
The gift of the master, in Donghua Pavilion, Ziji Hall, Delu Palace... there are many glimpses, and in the end there is only two words: "Take care".
He didn't have any unnecessary feelings for Jiang Wang. The emperor liked this young man's sincerity and talent, and appreciated his stubbornness and "insensitivity". He also liked this young man, treated him respectfully and politely, and mentioned things when they were needed. point. If the emperor lets this person go, he will let this person go.
The torrent of the times promotes young princes, envelops him, and wears him away. The power that sweeps everything away cannot be felt unless you are in it, and you cannot feel the difficulty of breaking free.
People unknowingly confuse each other with the one and only. Just like Han Ling, when he was a child and was awakened by hunger every day, he never thought that one day he would become a part of this great empire.
He enjoyed the authority he gained, and the person who loyally gave him all this was also clamped by the authority in his hands. It is impossible to escape from this life.
But Jiang Wangjin seemed to be able to jump out of the torrent very easily.
At this moment, I am free, but my back feels very heavy.
The world is often full of contradictions.
Han Ling stood quietly in Qi Realm, looking into the distance, looking at Jiang Wang, and his eyes were even higher than Jiang Wang's. The continuous mountain shadows are like the supreme dragon throne. Heaven’s will is carried here.
He didn't know why, but he felt that Shanying was very lonely.
…
"Do you think he will suddenly catch up and kill you?" Bai Yuxia asked coldly.
Having lost its official status as Qi State, it was natural that it was no longer covered by the Zhu He Alliance, and would no longer be able to fly across the Eastern Region in the future. Flying to other countries without invitation is a kind of provocation.
Jiang Wang had already chosen the first place to stay after leaving Qi, which was the Xingyue Plain between the Xu Kingdom and the Xiang Kingdom.
This place has been ownerless for a long time. Because it is the closest to the starry sky, it has become a treasured place for practitioners to set up outer buildings, and it was also noticed by Jingguo and Qiguo. The two hegemons are competing here, and there is no room for a unified organization to grow. Therefore, it has no master and has always been a mixed bag.
After the battle of Xingyueyuan, the people of Xiang Kingdom were completely expelled, and the monks of Xu Kingdom gained the right to freely build buildings here.
But this does not mean that Xingyue has been included in Xuguo's territory - Xuguo does not have such an appetite, and Qiguo cannot eat it at that time. The core demand of Qi State at that time was still the abolition of Xia Di Yitian Temple.
This large-scale Qi Jing proxy war was just a prelude to the subsequent Qi Xia War and Jing Mu War.
Xingyue is still free, but the defeated Xiang Kingdom monks are not free here.
The land of freedom was Jiang Wang's choice. Of course, the existence of senior Guan Yan was also a big factor.
If Zhuang Gaoxian killed him headlessly, he would really be declared "headless" from now on. He will definitely remove the head neatly with the help of Senior Guan Yan.
But although Xingyueyuan is not far away, now he and Bai Yuxia can only walk there.
If he continues to fly as unscrupulously as before, he may have to fly and fight all the way without an official position. Although I am not afraid, it is not necessary.
"Why did he catch up and kill me?" Jiang Wang asked casually.
"Many stories are like this. If you want to leave, he will let you go. A good bird chooses its wood. If you really leave, he will kill you on the way." Bai Yuxia said: "How can the emperor let you go with the emperor's sword? The world?"
Jiang Wangdao: "I am not worthy of the Emperor's Sword. The Emperor of Da Qi's Emperor's Sword is his ambition to conquer the sun and the moon, his invincible courage, and his tolerance for embracing all rivers."
Bai Yuxia said: "Then you are always a handy sword."
Jiang Wang still shook his head: "I think he is sharp. But with the might of Emperor Qi, if he takes the lead, he will be the general marshal of the country and the duke. I have gone through the military hall several times, but it is not my turn to take advantage of him." "
Bai Yuxia looked back and said, "Okay, everyone is gone, there's no need to do this anymore."
Jiang Wanghun was unaware and said as he walked: "Besides, the work of breaking swords you mentioned is not something that General Manager Han can do. In Qi State, the people who do this kind of work are watchmen. The leader is Lord Zhusui. "
Bai Yuxia stopped and her joking expression turned serious: "Does the Lord Zhusui you are talking about like to carry a white paper lantern?"
Looking at the rickety old man who suddenly appeared in front of him, Jiang Wang also stopped.
"Old Bai." He said rather melancholy, "Don't talk much from now on."
Bai Yuxia felt very unconvinced: "Didn't you shout this out?"
In the battle in the Mysterious Realm, everyone in Zhu Sui's body died. One true god, two false gods, and Yandao himself sank forever in the blue sea. From now on, the future is cut off, and the only three clones left are all false gods wandering at night.
Of course, even a night-walking false god, controlled by Zhu Sui's vision, is enough to suppress Jiang.
But the wrinkles on his face only relaxed slightly: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Marquis Wu An."
"Actually, it's only been a few days..." Jiang Wang sighed: "Master Zhusui, why are you here?"
"Don't get me wrong." The old man, who no longer wore a torn leather hat and showed pale hair, shook the lantern in his hand: "I just caught a few wandering souls who fled the country. I will meet you when I come back."
"I will not be an enemy of Qi State." Jiang Wang said seriously.
"That is your freedom." Zhusui opened his blind eyes and said slowly: "Now that you are outside the Qi territory, you are no longer on my patrol. I am old and it is time to rest. I may not see you again in the future... Send What can you order?"
Jiang Wang actually didn't understand why Zhusui gave him something, but the words 'I'm old' made him a little sad.
"What do you plan to give me, senior?" he asked.
When Zhu Sui raised the lantern, a speck of white flame as big as a bean flew out unsteadily and floated in front of Jiang Wang.
"I once wanted you to accompany me to watch the night watch, but young people should stand under the sun. I once hoped that the nights in Qi will always be peaceful, but 'forever' is here for me, and it has an expiration date. On countless nights, I feel I feel lonely, but more often, I feel love. I can’t go further with Qi Guo, and you also chose to leave in advance. It’s time to say goodbye to you, young man. This is my night on the streets of Linzi, The little light I grabbed...is given to you, don't forget your peace of mind."
The golden Samadhi divine fire flew out and gently wrapped the large white flame.
"I will treasure it well." Jiang Wang said.
Zhusui waved his hand, holding a white paper lantern, and walked in the direction of Qi Guo. When he passed by Jiang Wang, he said again: "Don't worry, I will relay it."
"Reporting what?" Bai Yuxia asked after he left.
Emperor Qi had no reason to send two people to see Jiang Wang off at the same time, especially when they were Han Ling and Zhu Sui.
So Zhu Sui came by himself.
His arrival may be a warning, maybe a farewell, or maybe he is just passing by.
But Jiang Wang's footsteps actually became lighter.
"Nothing." He said, "Don't speak ill of Lord Zhusui."
Bai Yuxia is inexplicably pessimistic about the future.
When I say Shi Jiangwang, I mean holding your thigh, not carrying your weight. We've only walked a few steps, why do you have to rely on me for everything?
"What bad things did I say about him? If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't have known his name was Zhu Sui, right?"
…
…
In Delu Palace.
Ye Henshui, the thin-faced court official, had set up a desk alone and was sitting there, writing and answering questions. Like a dragon or a snake, it falls on the paper, and the words are like leaping into the sky, and the words are extremely gorgeous.
His writing style is called "Dragon Palace Garden" and his font is called "Zhangtai Liu". They were all pioneered by him and were extremely influential in the literary world of Qi.
In the midst of his busy schedule, he glanced up and saw Zhu Sui, a stooped figure, walking into the hall with a lantern.
One emperor and one courtier. Zhu Sui was an old minister of Emperor Wu of Qi, and a thousand years of night patrol seemed too long! He thought silently in his heart.
He just said: "Marquis Du requested that the island of Huai be opened and a statue be erected on the Tianya platform to cherish the dragon fisherman forever. I have already prepared the memorial text you requested."
For ordinary articles, the eight pen-writing eunuchs in the palace are more than competent. Qiu Ji and his colleagues are quite knowledgeable.
But for such a memorial to a being like Xuanyuan Shuo, he, the Qingci doctor, had to take action.
The reason why he became a court official, ranked in the political affairs hall, and occupied the top political positions of the entire Qi Empire. Of course, it’s not just about well-written articles and beautiful handwriting.
The emperor called him here not only to write articles but also to ask questions about politics.
The erection of a statue of the Dragon Fisherman at Tianya Terrace was a derivative of the Battle of the Mysterious Realm.
After the war, Diaohailou had undoubtedly lost the qualification to lead the Zhenhai League, and it no longer had the power to dominate Huai Island, the largest offshore island.
Dongtian Master Song Huai, who was born in Penglai Island, came to Huai Island after the war. He said that the will of the ancient emperors was unbreakable and the spirit of dragon fishermen would last forever. He came out to support Chen Zhitao in rebuilding the Diaohai Tower. Supporting Chongguang and supporting Qin Zhen, others have said that each has his own opinion and fights for the name of orthodoxy. Even if they fight for thousands of years, there may not be any results. Only Chen Zhitao was repeatedly confirmed by Wei Xun during his lifetime, which is irrefutable in legal terms.
General Yanggu, in charge of Yuejie, personally presided over the sacrifice of the human heroes who died in the battle with the Mysterious Realm, ranking Xuanyuan Shuo, the dragon fisherman, as the first.
Cao Du, on behalf of Qi State, also recognized this and spoke highly of Shen Du Zhenjun's sacrifice. Promote the situation and make Wye Island a truly more open place for all races. He advocated the erection of a statue on Tianya Terrace, recognized the legal authority of Diaohailou, and welcomed people of insight from all over the world to jointly build Huaidao. As the saying goes, "all human beings inherit the ambition of the emperor, and all seafarers inherit the heart of Diaohailou."
Ye Henshui must admit that Cao Jiu's political skills were also very superb, making Diaohai Tower a part of Huai Island instead of Huai Island itself, but this was obviously not the best result that Qi could get after the war. Song Huai seized on the pretext of supporting Diaohailou. In the future, Jingguo would be qualified to intervene in offshore affairs, which would cause endless troubles.
The emperor seemed to be in a bad mood and just said: "Dr. Laoye, I won't read the article and just send it directly to Huai Island."
Ye Henshui then understood that this matter was over.
Then he stood up and bowed to the emperor, nodded to Zhusui, took the article he had just written, and went straight away.
