"Brother, you didn't come here for the Immortal Ascension Ceremony, but you don't know why you came even half a step away." Jiang Shan calmed down and asked.
"Of course it's for enjoyment. If you can't enjoy it even if you come half a step away, then what are you doing here?" the man in white said matter-of-factly.
The corner of Jiang Shan's mouth twitched slightly. Just like this, he could go straight to the heaven. No wonder the three realms are so chaotic.
Seeing Jiang Shan's expression, the man in white became even more interested and said: "I just competed with the Taoist Priest, no matter who is superior or inferior. I just dare to ask the Taoist Priest where did he learn these things?"
"It's from my family." Jiang Shan replied without thinking at first, and then added, "But I haven't won yet. I would like to ask where did your brother learn it from? Nowadays, practicing Taoism also requires strict rules and precepts."
At least you can't just go to a brothel.
"That was youthful debauchery. To be honest, before I became a monk and practiced Taoism, I was a prince of a country. I have been accustomed to enjoying the wealth and honor of the world since I was a child." The man in white said with a smile.
"Oh. I'm used to enjoying myself and looking for some different excitement, so why do you practice Taoism?" Jiang Shan nodded.
"It's about seeing through wealth and power, and seeking the right path." The man in white corrected him.
Jiang Shan glanced at the man in white, the expression on his face was even more playful, seeing through the wealth and power, what are you doing now?
"Understand the world of mortals." The man in white said, seemingly seeing through Jiang Shan's mind.
"Yes, I can't bear to see the suffering in the world, so I donate my body and save it myself." Jiang Shan continued.
The man in white glanced at Jiang Shan and said with a funny look, "That's right."
Looking across the nine floors of this brothel, is this what some of the rats inside are thinking?
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing a bit of disdain, but he and Jiang Shan continued to drink, pretending to be fine. After a while, the oiran appeared again in the audience, and a burst of drama rang out.
"Zana Yi Yin is also the Prime Minister of the country. He puts Taijia directly in Tong Palace to assist the king and protect the country."
Jiang Shan looked down and saw a graceful woman dancing gracefully on the stage. The white mist around her body changed, and she actually transformed into many avatars, singing and performing all kinds of wonderful things.
"Yi Yin? Can the great thief of the country also be called the Prime Minister? Praise to all the people?" Hearing this, the man in white showed disdain on his face, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
Jiang Shan also showed a subtle expression on his face.
The brothel girl in the audience used illusion skills to sing a great drama of "Yi Yin Fang Tai Jia" by herself.
Historically, Taijia was the grandson of Shang Tang, and Yi Yin was the prime minister of Shang Tang. He assisted Shang Tang in overthrowing the Xia Dynasty. When Taijia became emperor, he was in a high and powerful position. However, when Taijia was emperor at the beginning, he was tyrannical and unruly, so he He was exiled to Tong Palace and became the king as regent himself. After Taijia repented three years later, he was returned to power. From then on, the country became clear.
Become a good talk.
However, to be honest, compared to this beautiful talk, Jiang Shan believed more in the records in the Bamboo Chronicles. Yi Yin deposed Taijia and wanted to regent and become the king. Taijia fled back and killed Yiyin to regain the throne.
Of course, the historical truth is unknown.
It's just that this play is very interesting. This kind of thing about a minister banishing a king would not usually become a widely circulated play. After all, it is a real slap in the face.
But along the way Jiang Shan walked, more than half a step from Xiniu Hezhou, he heard such scenes everywhere.
It just so happens that there is a Jade Emperor who has been going through calamities, and the purpose behind the story is even more interesting.
After the man in white finished speaking, he also felt a little out of place. He immediately calmed down and just looked at Jiang Shan's expression and said with a smile: "It's a good show. I wonder what the Taoist priest thinks?"
"In the game between king and minister, Taijia won." Jiang Shan said.
"Oh? The Taoist priest thinks this is a game. Don't you think it's a good talk between the king and his ministers, and Yi Yinkuang is helping the king?" The man in white was slightly surprised when he heard this, but his eyes when looking at Jiang Shan were even more kind.
"Kings and mountains are easy to change, but nature is hard to change. Is there really the so-called three-year repentance? And later, instead of saying that Taijia repented and Yiyin called him back, I believe it was Taijia who defeated Yiyin in a fight, and the power of the king was better than the power of the prime minister. ." Jiang Shan was not surprised when he saw the change in the man in white's eyes.
After all, this is a glorious talk for a courtier, but for someone with a royal background like the man in white, it is obviously something extremely unpleasant.
"The Taoist Master is right, and I think so too. When the king returns, he will punish his rebellious ministers. For this reason, let's have a drink." The man in white smiled and drank with Jiang Shan.
Jiang Shan looked at the man in white slightly strangely and said with a smile, "Drink together."
Looking at the opera below, the man in white suddenly said: "If the Taoist priest was in the Shang Dynasty, would he assist Taijia or Yiyin?"
"I think it's to help Taijia," Jiang Shan said.
If there is such a thing as time travel, he should be on Taijia's side. After all, he doesn't even know Taijia Yiyin and has no feelings for him. He just wants to take a ride.
"The Taoist Master is indeed a real person. It's a pity that there is no such outstanding Taoist Master in our country." The man in white looked at Jiang Shan with admiration in his eyes, and then suddenly sighed and said, "To be honest, I have a brother who is the same as the Immortal. I have no chance and can only enjoy the wealth and honor of the world. Now I am the king of the world, but the state counselor is controlling the government, like a puppet sitting in the court."
I have a brother?
Jiang Shan had a strange expression when he heard these familiar lines, but he still said: "With your methods, brother, can't you deal with a national master?"
"But the national master also has methods, and behind it is the authentic Xuanmen. Back then, there was a reason why I couldn't do anything to her through my cultivation." The man in white said.
"How far does the power of the Imperial Master go? When he enters the court, he doesn't follow his lead, he doesn't pay tribute to his name, and he goes to the palace with swords and shoes?" Jiang Shan asked curiously.
"This is the treatment for her second son, plus Jiuxi and the title of king." The man in white said.
"Then why don't you just take the Zen position? At least it will be more respectable." Jiang Shan was stunned for a moment. After all, does this country still have the surname Zhang?
It is standard for a powerful minister to not follow the rules when entering the court, to praise and worship without fame, and to go to the palace with swords and shoes, but it is still possible to defeat him.
But if you add Jiuxi, you are just waiting to be usurped.
After all, this thing is synonymous with usurping the throne.
In Jiang Shan's impression, if it reaches the level of Jiuxi, the emperor has completely lost control.
And this is two plus nine tins in one breath?
Three families promoted? Oh no, this is divided between two families.
The man in white was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect Jiang Shan to come up with such a reply.
"Be proactive and be decent. My brother's talent is extraordinary. It won't be difficult to find a secluded place to establish a country. The world is so big that there is no need to stick to one place. If you really can't let it go, establish a country in another place, accumulate strength and then counterattack. . We cultivators should not seize the day, ten thousand years is not a long time, so we must be prepared for a protracted war." Jiang Shan said.
"A protracted war." The man in white raised his eyebrows slightly. Naturally, he would not win this battle easily, and it would be long-lasting. However, few people directly stated the conclusion of a protracted war and put the time in a span of ten thousand years.
And although there are some discrepancies in the situation, the statement is not entirely without merit.
Create another battlefield, accumulate strength, and fight back for a long time.
It is impossible to establish another heaven.
But there are many demon kings in the world, and they may not be regarded as a force.
"What the Taoist Master said is good, I admire you. I wonder if there is any other strategy?" said the man in white.
"Brother, I am a Taoist priest. If you ask me how to make elixirs for immortality, draw talismans to catch ghosts, I can answer one or two, but I am not good at these tactics." Jiang Shan said with a smile.
Although he had watched a lot of history books and conspiracy dramas in his previous life, and had given advice on forums, but when it came to putting it into practice, to be honest, he himself did not believe in himself.
"Isn't it true that Taoist priests are not very resourceful? Besides, you and I are just chatting here, and my homeland is probably hopeless. You and I can talk more, and I can persuade my brother. If it doesn't work, it's also a good idea to lie to him. . Deceive him first, and by the time the deal is done, it will be too late for him to regret it." The man in white said in a persuasive manner.
"In this case, if something goes wrong, brother, don't blame me." Jiang Shan said.
"I swear to God, I will never blame you, otherwise I will be struck by lightning." The man in white said with a smile.
"Then I'll just talk about it casually. Brother Cai just said that the Imperial Master has two sons. May I ask how these two sons are? Which one is better and which one is worse?" Jiang Shan asked.
"The eldest son is thoughtful, thinks over everything, and makes decisions before taking action. The second son is cunning, decisive, and brave. He is more capable and more powerful than his elder brother." The man in white said.
"Then this is an obvious contradiction. If you leave the country, are you really willing to let your younger brother take the upper hand? The conflict will inevitably intensify, and then some determined undercover agents will be allowed to intensify the conflict, even if the two of them don't want to If you fight, your subordinates will also fight. Or you can make a killing list and put his brother's name in front of his brother to intensify it. Even before you leave, you can do this, just to put you That brother's name is ranked below that of the second son of the Imperial Master." Jiang Shan said.
The man in white suddenly brightened up, what a great idea.
The only problem is that it hurts my face.
But what dignity do I have now?
How many people in the Three Realms know me?
How can something that is already zero fall?
