"The Lord of Huacheng needs us to send a nobleman back to the imperial capital, and that nobleman needs to be personally escorted by the temple master of the Four Avenues of Huacheng."
"The noble man also said that if we refuse, there will no longer be a place for us in Huacheng. Now the other three Taoist temples have agreed, and only our Chunyang Taoist temple has not expressed its stance."
"I offered to go on behalf of my junior brother, but was rejected outright, so I want to ask your junior brother for your opinion."
Changli said with some embarrassment.
Their Chunyang Taoist Temple finally took root in Huacheng, and the four senior brothers finally had a family. It would be a bit reluctant to give up everything now.
"The Lord of Huacheng City treats us with great courtesy, and the Sheriff of Jialing County also respects us. Is that noble man Tianhuang Guwei, who dares to boss us around?"
Jiang Chen said with some annoyance.
If you come to ask for help in a good manner, he may not be able to help, but if you want to use your power to suppress others, he is not easy to mess with!
"Junior brother guessed correctly, the opponent is Tianhuang Guiwei, either a prince or a princess, not to mention a monk in the visualization realm, even if he is in the free realm, he is not willing to provoke him easily."
"Of course, the great monks in the Xiaoyao Realm can be on equal terms with the Yuanchu Emperor, so the prince and princess will naturally not be able to drive them."
"But if you want to control several out-of-body levels of visualization, then you can't just let them control it?"
Changli said with some helplessness.
This is a hard job, and even if there is a prize, they are not willing to take it, because many people do not want to have too much interaction with the royal family.
If you go wrong, you may be deported from the country and be homeless in a foreign country, or your life may be at risk!
After all, the priests raised by the royal family and the monks of the Imperial Prefecture are not just for free!
"Really the prince and princess?"
"What are they doing in Jialing County?"
"If it's really a prince or princess traveling, there will be guards of honor and protection from accompanying experts. What else do we need to do?"
"But now they actually want us, a small family, to protect them and help them return to the imperial capital."
"This shows that someone does not want them to return to the imperial capital safely, and that their guard strength is simply unable to withstand the enemy."
"Even when they quietly came to Jialing County, they were actually being chased and fled here. All their men may have been killed or injured!"
"It's clear that someone wants them to die outside the imperial capital!"
"This errand is not easy to handle. If you are not careful, you may lose your life. If they return to the imperial capital alive, then we will be even more in danger!"
"Can we afford to offend anyone who dares to kill the prince or princess?"
"If they know that we ruined their good deeds, we will be in doom as well!"
Jiang Chen basically guessed the general context of the matter through just a few words of information!
"ah?"
"Is it so serious?"
"I just think that our Chunyang Taoist Temple cannot afford to offend such noble people. Even the former Qingyang Taoist Temple would give them three points."
"But I didn't expect that there are so many twists and turns in it!"
"If junior brother hadn't reminded me, I would have almost lost my junior brother's life in vain!"
"In this case, I will reject them now. If they want to seal Chunyang Taoist Temple, then let them do whatever they want. At worst, we will go to other places!"
Changli said very decisively.
Although he is a bit dull, a bit rigid, a bit unsophisticated, not very thoughtful, and has no idea when things happen.
But when it comes to matters involving his junior brothers and sisters, he is always decisive and resolute, and will never let his junior brothers and sisters be wronged!
Therefore, even though Jiang Chen's current cultivation level far exceeds his, he still respects him very much.
Because he is a good senior brother with charming personality!
"Senior brother, don't worry. I'd better go to the City Lord's Mansion in person to find out their true intentions. If necessary, I can intimidate them."
"If the situation of the prince and princess from the imperial capital is really worrying, they would not want to offend our two visualization monks in the Flower City!"
"If they are willing to pay a small price, and the price is enough to impress me, I might consider escorting them."
"I'm not stupid. If I knew something couldn't be done, I would just run away for my life. No matter what the prince or princess is, if the emperor wants to settle accounts with us, then the Zhou Dynasty won't wait!"
"I wish I was overthinking it!"
Jiang Chen said with emotion.
The royal members of the Zhou Dynasty were not easy to mess with, especially the princes, none of them were fuel-efficient lamps.
If it involves a battle for the crown prince, it will be even more troublesome!
This is because the emperors of the Zhou Dynasty never had the habit of establishing a direct descendant or establishing a prince in advance.
It is not possible to know who the next emperor is until the emperor is dying!
This throne was not given blindly, but the princes were trained like a gu, letting them fight and show who is the most outstanding and who is most likely to win everyone.
The loser may stay away from the center of power and become a prince who is idle at home, or may lose his life in the worst case!
Therefore, all the emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty ascended to the throne by stepping on the bones of their brothers and sisters, and countless ministers.
Although this method is tragic, it can ensure that the person who ascends the throne will definitely not be a mediocre person!
It also ensured the stability of the Zhou Dynasty!
Although this will also cause instability in the court and turmoil in the country, if an incompetent emperor ascends the throne, the Great Zhou Dynasty will not be far from being destroyed!
Of course, this may also be related to the fact that the Zhou Dynasty did not have the support of state religion.
However, this kind of thing has pros and cons. Without a state religion, although it may lead to a greatly reduced life span of the dynasty and unstable succession of the throne, without the constraints of the state religion, the emperor's power has reached its peak, which is more conducive to rule!
"good!"
"Since junior brother has already made a plan, then I will listen to you."
After listening to Jiang Chen's words, Chang Li nodded and said.
That's right, he's just so opinionated.
"Okay, then I will go to the City Lord's Mansion to see what is so valuable about this noble man!"
Jiang Chen said with a slight smile.
Coming from the real world, he doesn't have much fear of imperial power. Da Qing has been dead for hundreds of years, so where did the bullshit prince and princess come from? !
However, people in the world of Xianxia do not think so. They are afraid of the imperial power. Even the great masters of martial arts and the great monks of Xiaoyao Realm do not dare to go against a great dynasty.
This kind of political system in which the family, country and world are integrated and the emperor is strong and arbitrary can ensure that the power of the country is unified into one!
Such a state machine is like a savage beast. Even the great monks of Xiaoyao Realm dare not touch it easily!
Although Jiang Chen was not afraid of the imperial power, he was not willing to offend them.
After all, as long as he is still within the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he will be restricted by the Great Zhou Dynasty!
The main palace of Huacheng City.
This is Jiang Chen's first time stepping into this place. In the past, Chang Li took care of everything. He had always been the boss behind the scenes.
However, his reputation in Huacheng is not small, especially after breaking through the visualization realm, he vaguely became the number one monk in Huacheng!
The reputation of Chunyang Taoist Temple is also growing. This is precisely because he does not appear often, so he is spread more and more by some people.
"This Taoist priest, why are you here? Do you have a name tag?"
The concierge of the City Lord's Mansion blocked Jiang Chen's way, but seeing Jiang Chen's attire and otherworldly temperament, he did not dare to neglect him.
"I, Chunyang Taoist Master of Chunyang Taoist Temple, are here at the invitation of the city lord. You can go in and tell me something!"
Jiang Chen spoke up.
"It turns out to be the owner of Chunyang Taoist Temple!"
"I would like to ask Immortal Master Chunyang to wait for a moment, I will go to report it immediately!"
The concierge immediately set out to report the matter at every level to ensure that the news reached the ears of the Lord of Huacheng as quickly as possible.
