The movement of cicadas in Spring and Autumn reverses time for forty-nine years.
Li Huangwei Yuan Zhao was reborn as an ordinary prince in the thirteenth year since the forty-fifth year of the Apocalypse.
In order to ensure that history would not change, after Wei Yuanzhao was reborn, he basically followed the experience of his previous life and sat down to watch the sudden death of the previous Lihuang Emperor Zhengde, and once again rushed to Lijing three days before his fourth cousin arrived in Beijing. Ascended to the throne as emperor.
From making peace without a fight at Tumu Castle to demoting officials due to "Geometry Sin" and sitting on the throne of Li Huang, Wei Yuanzhao became more comfortable in issuing orders and became more powerful when sitting on the throne of God. He acted accordingly and did not jump out of the previous life. route.
Until the fourth year of Apocalypse.
After his rebirth, Lihuang mainly wanted to plot against Gui Pavilion. Based on the information from his previous life, he planned to set up a plan to capture Huagui Pavilion in the fifth year of Tianqi when Zhongli entered the palace and became his concubine.
In order to ensure that the situation was under his control, Li Huang was reborn for several years and never changed history.
But in the fourth year of Tianqi, Emperor Li hesitated.
Because this year, Chu Kuangsheng, the governor of Chu County, wrote a letter to Emperor Li, in which he talked about the beauty of internal martial arts and strongly recommended Nan Yi to Emperor Li.
However, in Lihuang's previous life, Nan Yi, like many of his predecessors as time travelers, passed away like a shooting star without causing much commotion. He even failed to update his internal martial arts to Zhen Qi martial arts, and was attacked by the Xuan-level demon. Xiu Jie killed and died.
——To be precise, it was the Xuan-level demon cultivator who wanted to kidnap Nan Yi, but was stopped by Tao Zhiming. Although Tao Zhiming couldn't save Nan Yi, he was able to prevent a group of Xuan-level demon cultivators from taking Nan Yi away. Nan Yi knew that he fell into the hands of the demon cultivator and had no choice but to be sacrificed to Ming Zun, so he resolutely asked Tao Zhiming to kill him.
In the first lifetime of Emperor Li, Nan Yi died young and was actually not very famous.
But the talk of internal strength that opened up a new path made Emperor Li obsessed. Even after his rebirth more than forty years later, he still never forgot it.
Because Lihuang's rebirth plan, although he was confident that he could easily win the Huagui Pavilion, he still could not solve the problem that entering Taoism would arouse suspicion.
After Lihuang planned to capture Huagui Pavilion, he would try his best to pretend to be brave enough to attract Yuan Qi without leaking the news, and luckily succeeded in entering the Taoism.
But he was a mortal, and after becoming Queen Li, he suddenly accepted Yuan Qi regardless of the risk. Although it was not impossible, it would definitely arouse everyone's suspicion.
However, it is difficult for people to enter Taoism through demonic cultivation methods such as taking Zhushengxuedan, which can withstand careful inspection.
This is a question that Emperor Li has been struggling with since his rebirth.
Therefore, Lihuang never forgot the internal strength that theoretically opened up new paths.
After hesitating for a long time, Li Huang felt that Nan Yi was far away in Chu County and would not easily affect the situation in Li Jing City or his layout of Huagui Pavilion, so he finally decided to give Nan Yi a chance and Neigong Martial Arts a chance.
He wanted to see how mysterious the internal martial arts that Nan Yi had developed would have been if he had not died young.
Therefore, Emperor Li changed history and asked the monks from the Crime Enforcement Department who were originally supposed to go to Wu County to join the navy and take a boat to Yingzhou Island for support, to go to Chu County instead.
In this way, Chu Kuangsheng, the governor of Chu County who was attacked by demonic cultivators in Nantian City, asked these monks from the Criminal Investigation Department to clean up a wave of Xuan-level demonic cultivators outside the city when passing through Nantian City.
The demon cultivators of the Eternal Bright Fire Sect, who had already lost many people, gave up one after another and no longer waited for Nan Yi.
Although in this life, there is still a demon cultivator Gong Shao who used his incarnation to attack and kill Nan Yi on March 2, but compared to the previous life when many Xuan-level demon cultivators took action, it can be said that there is a huge difference. Because of this, Nan Yi saved his life and did not die on March 2, the fourth year of Tianqi.
Then, history gradually changed course.
Gongye Qingtian continued as usual, usurping the throne on April 7th with the intention of refining Nantian City, but was led into the illusion of Tao Zhiming by the waiting Tao Zhiming.
But in the last life, although Tao Zhiming succeeded in killing Gongye Qingtian through calculated calculations but unintentionally, the harvest was not too great because Gongye Qingtian tried his best to resist.
But in this life, with the help of Nan Yi and other Yuan warriors, it was easier for Tao Zhiming to kill Gongye Qingtian and the harvest was more abundant.
Then, Nan Yi, who did not die at an early age, had better luck and suddenly released the immortal energy, renewing the inner martial arts into the authentic martial arts. With the characteristics of the immortal energy, the people spontaneously spread the martial arts, and instantly he had In full swing.
Then, Nan Yi rushed to Yingzhou Island with Du Heng, and while easily negotiating the "Yingzhou Peace Treaty", he actually cultivated the dragon's blood energy in the South China Sea and laid a back-up plan.
When Du Heng used Lingxi Butterfly to ask Li Huang about the true energy of dragon blood, Li Huang was extremely shocked.
What shocked him was not Nan Yi's petty thoughts of causing trouble in the South China Sea, but Nan Yi, who had not died young, was so sharp that he could easily affect the general trend.
Li Huang felt as if he had released an extraordinary and proud man from the cage of history.
But the more powerful Nan Yi is, the more likely it is that the new path opened up by Nan Yi will allow Emperor Li to find a good opportunity to enter the Tao practice.
With a hint of entanglement, Li Huang continued to secretly pay attention to Nan Yi's growth.
After Nan Yi returned from Yingzhou Island and arrived in Lijing City with Du Heng, he really showed his talents.
Faced with the tacit resistance of the officials of the Nine Ministries, Nan Yi first sought the support of the Luo family, a family with a thousand-year history, and then found Su Guang, the former director of the Department of Finance. Relying on Su Guang's popularity and the intelligence of Mailou, he successively persuaded the officials of the Nine Ministries, each of whom Break.
In the end, with Nan Yi's help, Su Guang stepped on Lin Ye and regained control of the financial department.
In the previous life, Su Guang had to find the opportunity in October of the fourth year of Tianqi to bring down Lin Ye, who had lost the favor of Emperor Li, for the crime of pyramid schemes. In the previous life, although Nan Yi died young, the internal martial arts middle way collapsed. Although there are obstacles, the martial arts model and the MLM mechanism are still in the eyes of interested people.
But in this life, Su Guang's resurrection actually caused Lin Ye to be demoted to Qi County three months in advance.
Moreover, in the previous life, Lin Ye had to draw Gui Pavilion to win over, and would rush to Qi County to pick up the mess left after the destruction of the Yuan family.
As a result, in this life, the day after Lin Ye was demoted, he died in the hands of a warrior in a confused way because of provoking Nan Yi.
Lin Ye's death was beyond Li Huang's expectation.
It was also after Lin Ye's death that Emperor Li felt that the situation in the capital was somewhat out of control, so he had no choice but to agree to the concubine selection proposal in advance, preparing to move forward the time to take over Huagui Pavilion.
As a result, just a few days after he agreed to the proposal to choose a concubine, Kong Qian died, or at the hands of Nan Yi.
Realizing that the essence of the "Eternal Life Ring" was part of the "Holy Virtue Teaching Sutra", Li Huang was a little confused for a while.
He never expected that Nan Yi would behead Kong Qian.
If Lin Ye's death was still related to Su Guang, then Kong Qian's death was really something that Li Huang couldn't understand.
He couldn't understand why Kong Qian, who was supposed to have no grudges in the past and no grudges in recent times, suddenly got involved with Nan Yi and was easily killed.
——Li Huang didn't know that even Lin Du, who taught him the method of worshiping and refining the natal Gu in his previous life, died today.
But Emperor Li realized that the situation was completely out of control.
Lin Ye's death will not greatly affect Huagui Pavilion; but Kong Qian's death will definitely set off a storm in Huagui Pavilion, which will further affect Lihuang's layout.
Li Huang was in a complicated mood.
Nan Yi's strong performance shows that Zhenqi Martial Arts is indeed worthy of attention, and it also shows that he can change Nan Yi's destiny and is a great investment.
If he has spiritual roots and can practice the "Sitting on the Mountain Technique" prepared in his previous life in advance and master the art of "sitting back and enjoying the results", he can even enter the stage of transformation directly with this investment.
But now, firstly, after Li Huang resurrected his life, he still dared not rashly invite Yuan Qi to risk his life to become a Taoist; secondly, he had not been able to obtain the position of Yuan warrior from Nan Yi; thirdly, Nan Yi had already wanted to Destroy Emperor Li's plan for Huagui Pavilion.
For the current plan, we can only take advantage of the fact that Huagui Pavilion does not know the news of Kong Qian's death and take the lead.
Lihuang sensed the location of the "Ring of Immortality" and estimated that if Nan Yi wanted to return to the capital, it would take half a day at the earliest.
Therefore, the time left for Emperor Li was probably only half a day.
Emperor Li took a deep breath and immediately ordered to summon Zhuang Chun, a doctor from the Department of Morality and Moral Affairs of the Ministry of Rites, to enter the palace.
Zhuang Chun is the female cultivator of the Ministry of Etiquette who is responsible for choosing the concubine.
But to be precise, Zhuang Chun is dead.
The current Zhuang Chun is actually a painting of the fox demon Fox Qianque in the Gui Pavilion, transformed with thousands of faces and magical powers, pretending to be Zhuang Chun.
Emperor Li summoned Zhuang Chun into the palace with the intention of summoning Hu Qianque into the palace.
Not long after, Hu Qian was summoned to the Imperial Study Room to meet Emperor Li.
"Your Majesty, Zhuang Chun, pays homage to Your Majesty. I wonder what your Majesty has to do when you suddenly summon me?"
Hu Qian secretly guessed that it was for the purpose of choosing a concubine.
After all, the Zhuang Chun she changed was responsible for choosing the concubine. Apart from this matter, Lihuang summoned her privately for nothing else.
Hu Qian secretly sneered: Ha, man.
I thought that Emperor Li had never had any concubines and was an unintentional womanizer. Now it seems that it was just to secure the imperial power and compete with the royal clan elders.
Now that he has secured the throne, he not only agrees to the proposal of choosing a concubine, but also can't wait to summon her into the palace to teach her the truth. He is really lustful and impatient.
Hu Qian sneered in his heart.
But just as Hu Qian finished speaking, an invisible pressure suddenly emerged and instantly pushed Hu Qian to the ground.
At the same time, a strange fragrance wafted out, calling Hu Qian but his limbs were weak, and Ling Hu Qian returned to his human form, revealing his fox ears and tail.
Hu Qian turned pale in shock.
"Fox incense, fake elixirs, and spirit coins... how could you..."
Hu Qianque, who was lying on the ground, raised her head with difficulty to look at Li Huang, only to feel that Li Huang was extremely strange and not what she had imagined.
Not to mention the magic weapon that instantly imprisoned her, Mihu Xiang is a spice that is only for fox demons, there are also fake elixirs that allow mortals to temporarily use their magic power, and spiritual coins corresponding to the Xuan level.
As a currency that can be circulated and used in the spiritual realm, spiritual coins can be used with special means to meet the cost of disaster when most yellow-level magic weapons are used.
In other words, Lihuang was really well prepared to capture her as a mortal. And such thorough preparations showed that Huagui Pavilion's plan seemed like a joke in Lihuang's eyes.
"Hu Qianque, surrender, or die."
Li Huang walked not far from Hu Qianke's head and threw down a piece of contract.
It is not a contract written on ordinary paper, but a crafty tool in the form of a contract. Once signed, a powerful crafty contract will be concluded.
Hu Qian didn't pay attention to Lihuang's words, but stubbornly asked: "Why? Who are you?"
She didn't believe that she would be broken into mortal hands!
If Emperor Li refused to explain clearly, Hu Qian would rather die than surrender to Emperor Li, who was just a mortal.
Emperor Li knew Hu Qianque's temperament. So he said calmly: "If you want me to name an identity that will make you agree to sign the contract, then you can call me Wei Yuanzhao, the reborn person in the Eighth Pavilion of Paintings."
Reborn? Paint eight strange pavilions?
Hu Qian was stunned.
Before Hu Qian could speak again, Lihuang seemed to know what she was going to ask and said first: "Hu Qianque, formerly known as Hu Baizhi, was a casual cultivator in Qin County. In the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, he accidentally acquired blood while conquering a spiritual realm in the Qinling Mountains. Due to his strange power, he was eventually forced to turn into a fox demon."
Then, Lihuang told two little things that were unknown to the public before Hu Qianqu joined Huagui Pavilion.
Hu Qian suddenly fell silent.
Her original identity before she turned into a fox demon may also be the information that Emperor Li asked someone to investigate. But after she transformed into a fox demon, some of her experiences of walking around Dali with the power of a thousand faces were unlikely to be found out.
In other words, Li Huang is really a reborn person, and did he manage to get the secret from her in the previous life?
"Why can you be reborn?" Hu Qianque's tone became much more relaxed.
Emperor Li remained calm and calm: "I am Emperor Li, so I can use the Dali Secret Storehouse. In my previous life, I went to Lin Du to learn the method of sacrificing and refining the natal Gu, and then I took out the Spring Autumn Cicada from the Dali Secret Storehouse and refined it into the natal Gu. Activate the magical power of the Spring and Autumn Cicada to reverse time and be reborn."
Including all the things used by Emperor Li to capture Hu Qianque just now, they all came from the Dali Secret Treasury.
But all these combined are not as good as a Spring and Autumn Cicada.
"Spring and Autumn Cicada, the cicada moves the Spring and Autumn Period, reversing time." Hu Qian seemed to be laughing at himself, "So, in the last life, before you joined Huagui Pavilion, you had already thought about being reborn?"
"Of course." Emperor Li stopped and did not continue.
But Hu Qian guessed that Lihuang wanted to say: As Lihuang, how could he seriously collude with the demon cultivator.
From the very beginning, Emperor Li set his sights on this life, and then tried to collect a lot of information in the previous life, including those who painted Gui Pavilion Qisu, Kan Zhendui and other three dynasties.
However, Nan Yi, who died young in his previous life, suddenly burst into dazzling light after enduring the care of the demon cultivator of the Eternal Bright Fire Sect in this life.
In fact, even the steam technology that was the trend of the era in the previous life was slightly overshadowed by Nanyi Zhenqi Martial Arts.
Then, Nan Yi seemed to take no rest, causing all kinds of troubles, easily changing fate and influencing the situation, and only gave Emperor Li half a day to manage Huagui Pavilion.
When Emperor Li thought of this, his expression became more and more solemn.
He didn't want to waste too much time, so he asked again: "Submit or die."
Hu Qian's lips moved, but he stopped talking.
After learning that Li Huang was a reborn person, her attitude relaxed, but she felt that she had not lost unjustly and that she had not really lost at the hands of a mortal.
But Emperor Li was still a mortal, but Hu Qian moved his lips several times, still feeling that surrendering to a mortal was a bit too embarrassing.
Seeing Li Huang's murderous intent getting stronger and stronger, Hu Qian gritted his teeth and said, "Dare I ask, in my last life, did I surrender to you?"
"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't be able to ask you about those secret past events." Emperor Li's mouth curled up slightly, dissipating his murderous intent.
But when Hu Qian heard this, he immediately answered: "In that case, Hu is willing to surrender and submit to Your Majesty."
She comforted herself in her heart: It was not me who surrendered first, but the previous life.
