Yuan Tiangang is using the Human Emperor's Seal to remove the Ziwei Emperor Qi from Mingkong. As Mingkong's Ziwei Emperor Qi gradually dissipates, Mingkong's Emperor's destiny will naturally be affected.
Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng are actually not stubborn people. Even Yuan Tiangang is very willing to follow the development of heaven and go with the flow of heaven to a certain extent.
But now that the Three Realms are in such a situation, many things cannot be controlled by him.
How to act in accordance with the way of heaven?
Yuan Tiangang himself couldn't figure it out. After all, there were so many outrageous things that happened over the years that he began to doubt whether there was something wrong with his divination.
But Li Chunfeng's words reminded him.
"Who do you think you are, Yuan Tiangang? Do you still have a chance to go against the will of heaven in these three realms?"
"As insignificant practitioners like us, if we act according to our original intention, we are in compliance with the way of heaven." Li Chunfeng smiled and said: "Have you ever thought about it, everything we do is actually calculated and controlled by the way of heaven. Among them, those you originally calculated may be exactly what Heaven wants you to see. Or sometimes, some of the seemingly retrograde actions you and I take are actually exactly what Heaven wants you and me to do."
"So, Brother Dao, why do you have to worry about whether your actions are in accordance with nature?"
In the past, Yuan Tiangang might have been opposed to Li Chunfeng's views, but under the current situation, he also thinks it is very reasonable.
It is said that the environment changes people, and it is not unusual for changes in the environment of the Three Realms to cause changes in the thinking of people like them.
After all, even Li Shimin, who had always wanted to be the emperor, had to temporarily put off this idea after personally visiting his own Tang Empire incognito.
Moreover, the news from Wang Xuance from Dongzhou also shows that with the current national strength of the Tang Dynasty, it is almost impossible to conquer Dongzhou. Although in terms of upper-level combat power, they have unparalleled generals like Xue Rengui, but they face I'm afraid there is no chance of winning against those monks in Dongzhou who have practiced for thousands of years.
The word "cultivation" can be said to be deeply rooted in the body and mind in Dongsheng Shenzhou. Those sects will even recruit disciples in the human kingdom on a regular basis. Some royal disciples are even washed away with the secret method at birth. Wei Zhiqi was sent directly to the Immortal Sect to practice.
In Dongsheng Shenzhou, the relationship between the Immortal Sect and the country is still very delicate.
Perhaps some small sects have a cooperative relationship with the country, but those large immortal sects must be enshrined by the human dynasty.
Dongzhou is a world of practitioners. If Li Shimin really got carried away and went to conquer Dongzhou, it would definitely bring disaster to the Tang Dynasty.
Even if Wang Xuance and Xue Rengui were able to stop the other top masters, if the Tang Dynasty's conquest allowed the monks from East Continent to enter South Continent and start killing people, it would lead to more innocent killings.
And Li Shimin, who forcibly launched the war, undoubtedly brought about his own destruction. I am afraid that even Master Sanzang will not stand on his side.
Li Shimin naturally knew this very well. It has always been a "big taboo" to "learn from the unknown". Even if he can achieve temporary success, it will leave endless troubles in the future.
Li Shimin is a person who uses history as a mirror. Only by constantly learning from the failures of his predecessors and drawing on the successful experiences of his predecessors can he become what he is today.
Even though he was a little swollen some time ago, he was very fortunate that the coming of this "death disaster" could wake him up.
Daci'en Temple, the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
Wu Jing informed his master of the news he got from Yuan Tiangang.
After Fahai pondered for a while, he said: "You can keep an eye on me secretly. If Yuan Tiangang just uses the Human Emperor's Seal to eliminate the Ziwei Emperor Qi on Mingkong, he doesn't need to intervene too much and just protect the law. But if If there are any other changes, you should treat them with caution. I believe you have a sense of discretion."
Fa Hai still trusted Wu Jing.
It can even be said that his trust in Wu Jing is higher than that of Wukong to a certain extent.
The one who worries him the most is Bajie. Now he doesn't know where he hangs out in the world, and whether he has forgotten his own teachings. After all, Bajie's self-control ability has always been the worst among his brothers.
Mingkong's matter is not a big deal in Fahai's opinion.
Even if Yuan Tiangang didn't use the Human Emperor's Seal to eliminate the Ziwei Imperial Qi from her body, Fahai didn't think she would have a chance to cause trouble.
Even if he didn't take action, both the current Emperor Li Zhi of the Tang Dynasty and the Supreme Emperor Li Shimin could suppress her in all aspects. Of course, from Yuan Tiangang's perspective, his actions were also to maintain the stability of the Tang Dynasty.
Mingkong only felt that this dream he had had for a long time was very real, and he couldn't wake up even if he wanted to.
She dreamed that the Emperor died because he failed to escape the death catastrophe, and because Queen Wang had no heirs, Emperor Li Zhi and Queen Wang went to Ganye Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings. She finally reunited with Li Zhi after a long absence, and their old relationship rekindled.
After the death of Empress Dowager Changsun, Queen Wang suggested that her majesty include Ming Kong into the harem because Concubine Xiao Shu was very favored in the palace, and formed an alliance with herself to fight against Concubine Xiao Shu.
Naturally, Mingkong and Li Zhi would not refuse, so she continued to return to secular life.
Then, after a long harem battle, Wu Meiniang, Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu criticized each other mercilessly. Although His Majesty always ignored it, Queen Wang shouted that she had led the wolf into the house.
Because things are completely different from what she imagined. This is no longer a matter of her and Wu Meiniang joining forces to deal with Xiao Shufei, but even if she and Xiao Shufei join forces, I am afraid it will be impossible to suppress Wu Meiniang!
When Empress Wang came, she was not favored, and because she still had no heir, Emperor Li Zhi gradually favored Wu Meiniang alone.
So much so that it evolved to a situation where Li Zhi wanted to "depose the king and establish Wu".
The Queen's dethronement is not a trivial matter. The ministers in the court also took sides. The old ministers naturally sided with the Queen, but the ministers who passed the imperial examination were all disciples of the emperor, so they naturally sided with Li Zhi. .
The attitude of the court can be said to be very clear-cut, and Wu Meiniang could see that this was actually an opportunity for His Majesty to take action against these old ministers after the death of the Supreme Emperor.
His wings are already full, and those Zhenguan veterans who "escorted" him when he ascended the throne have become his constraints to a certain extent.
The Guanlong Group headed by Changsun Wuji, or those who refused to "submit" to Li Zhi, were kicked out of the court.
Later, it was because Emperor Li Zhi forcibly broke through the power of human blood in order to increase his longevity and survive the calamity of death. As a result, the breakthrough failed, resulting in a loss of energy and blood. As a queen, he assisted his majesty in handling government affairs.
With the addition of power, Empress Wu's desires gradually expanded. When Emperor Li Zhi was seriously ill, he actively supported his cronies in the court.
After the emperor died of illness, Crown Prince Li Xian succeeded to the throne, and she assumed the title of Queen Mother -
Then, after going through various twists and turns, she finally took the position of dominating the world and became the first female emperor in the Central Plains. She also changed the name of Tang Dynasty to Zhou Dynasty and called herself the Holy Emperor. She made Luoyang the divine capital and Chang'an the deputy capital of Xijing. In addition to the Tang clan affiliation, "the emperor was his heir and given the surname Wu".
During this period, people all over the world raised anti-flag, and countless rebels and Li clan died at her hands.
The Confucian disciples with great righteousness refused to be loyal to the Wu Zhou court, and she went on a killing spree. In fact, her throne was not stable. The Tang Empire, which was originally very strong and was still developing, was constantly weakening. .
The "barbarians" who were conquered by Li Shimin rebelled one after another, including Turks, Baekje, Tubo, etc. For a time, the territory of the Tang Dynasty was reduced by almost half.
But she was unwilling to give in. She believed that this was the world's inherent prejudice against her as the empress. She just had to sit tight and be the emperor well. But there were some things that she obviously didn't want or could do. It's done.
Because she discovered that even the ministers in the court who seemed to be obedient to her now actually wanted to wait until her death to support the Li family to succeed and restore the Li Tang artifact.
Her nephew couldn't hold up the wall, and her son couldn't live up to his expectations. So there seemed to be only one way to go before her.
Emperor Taizong and the late emperor both wanted to use human martial arts to extend their lifespan, but it seemed that this was the only way in front of them.
But, he failed to overcome the death calamity——
This was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. His son launched a coup when he was seriously injured.
Looking at my life, even if I became the emperor, what did I do?
Perhaps when her soul was dying, a golden light appeared in front of Wu Meiniang's eyes. She forced her tired eyes open and looked at the source of the golden light cave. At this time, something suddenly came to her mind. Why... why "Da Ci'en Temple" ” and “Teacher” seemed to disappear from the world and never appeared again?
But he was not aware of this matter at all, and he didn't realize it was even remotely weird.
Of course she could recognize the owner of the golden light in front of her. Could it be that he was her teacher, Tripitaka Tathagata, the imperial disciple of the Tang Dynasty?
"Mingkong, why don't you wake up?!"
boom--!
In the Zen room.
Mingkong suddenly sat up from the bed, she was covered in sweat, and her heart was beating fast. Then, she looked at Sanzang Buddha standing beside the bed, and quickly asked for help. Stand up and say "Teacher, learn"
"Lie down first."
Fahai waved his hand gently, and Mingkong lay on the bed without any resistance. The cleaning inspector stepped forward and covered her with a quilt, then patted it twice and said, "If you sleep like this, I slept for more than half a month.”
Normally, things in a dream will be forgotten after waking up. But this time it seems to be different. This dream spans decades, but the details seem to be vivid and very clear. .
It's really a bold dream.
It turned out to be just a dream. No wonder Tang Dynasty was like that and the teacher still didn't show up.
call--
Mingkong let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was just a dream.
Master Jingjian did not stay in the Zen room for too long. She knew that the Holy Buddha had different attitudes towards the student Mingkong, and during this period, she realized that the Holy Buddha had entered her dream.
Generally speaking, people who experience relatively large emotional fluctuations in dreams will wake up from the dream. But this time it was different. Sanzang Holy Buddha protected her and allowed her to truly realize this dream. It's over.
I just don't know what she was dreaming about, but it can make her emotions fluctuate so much.
After the inspector left, Fahai sat on a stool nearby and asked her directly: "How does it feel to be an empress?"
Sure enough, the teacher knew the content of his dream.
Mingkong lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "I am alone and have been calculating all my life. I am very tired and tired. If it is difficult to control my ambition at the beginning, then later on, there is no way out and I can only bite the bullet and move forward. .”
"What if I give you another chance?" Fahai asked.
Mingkong fell into deep contemplation for a long time, and finally replied: "It is better for the student to choose to practice seriously and achieve immortality than to sit on his cold throne and make the world an enemy."
Fahai asked her again, "Have you never thought that if you were given another chance, you could do better?"
Students don’t dare to think about it!
Mingkong looked at Fahai and tried to ask, "Does the teacher know something?"
Fa Hai nodded and did not hide anything. He directly stated to Ming Kong: "You have Ziwei Emperor Qi in your body, and you already have the luck of the emperor. Therefore, what you dreamed about in your dream was not created out of thin air."
"Does Your Majesty know about this matter?"
"The Emperor knows it."
The implication is that Li Zhi doesn't know.
The incident of "Mrs. Wu" was a big deal back then, but Mingkong was still a little surprised: "The Supreme Emperor didn't choose to kill me?"
Fa Hai did not explain anything to Li Shimin. It was not that Li Shimin had no murderous intention, but he finally gave up this method because he was confident that he could survive the disaster of death. By then, his longevity would be increased, so he would naturally not have to Worrying too much about these things.
Taking a step back, you have Ziwei Imperial Qi, and you are indeed blessed with imperial luck. Li Shimin might not be able to send her outside the Tang Dynasty, whether she relies on her own ability to found a country, or starts to use tricks to ascend the throne in other countries. .As long as she ascends the throne, it will be very simple for Li Shimin.
Because the luck between emperors and countries can be plundered through killing and conquest.
Mingkong naturally doesn't know these things.
But she could obviously guess something through Master Sanzang's silence. After all, silence itself is an answer.
Mingkong quickly calmed down: "How does the teacher think the students should respond?"
"Do what you think you should do, but if your behavior endangers the Three Realms or brings harm to the people, the poor monk will personally take action to transcend you." Fahai clasped his hands together, "Even if you are my student."
Mingkong:.
Teacher, if you talk like this, students will be under great pressure!
