This is a very charming man.
He is tall and tall, has a face like a crown jade, eyes like bright stars, and is gentle and elegant. Such words seem appropriate when used on him.
Wearing a light blue shirt and holding a book in his hand, he was dressed in an ordinary way, but his whole body exuded the demeanor of a gentleman like a green bamboo.
Not to mention that Jiang Shan had seen the portrait of Emperor Confucian before, but even if he didn't, he could recognize it at a glance now, Emperor Confucian Cheng Huang.
"Greetings to Master, I have successfully received my eldest brother." Seeing Emperor Ru, Demon King Jiao immediately saluted.
"Junior, I pay my respects to the Confucian Emperor." Jiang Shan also saluted immediately.
"Well, sit down. Your appearance is not as handsome as your original appearance." Emperor Ru nodded slightly and looked at Jiang Shan's changed appearance.
"After all, this junior is too handsome, so it is difficult to fake a similar face for a while." Jiang Shan sat down and said.
The Confucian Emperor smiled when he heard this, put down the scroll in his hand and said, "No wonder you were taken as a confidant by the Jade Emperor. Your appearance aside, your shamelessness is exactly the same as his."
"Senior's praise." Jiang Shan said with a smile.
"You and Jun'er are brothers with different surnames, and they are regarded as confidants by that shameless guy. They are not outsiders. Without saying any polite words, the Jade Emperor must have told you about the situation here before you came here." Ru Di road.
"To give a rough explanation, it is the ancestor of the Qingzhou Mirage Clan who covets the position of the Four Confucian Emperors. He wants to take advantage of this heaven-changing ceremony to take away the Confucian Emperor's throne. But for more details, I have to let my senior know." Jiang Shandao.
Qingzhou was handed over to Emperor Ru to govern, but it was not without other forces.
The layout of the entire demon world is probably like that of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
The Demon Emperor is the emperor of Zhou Dynasty, the great sect, and the four emperors are the minor sects. The four emperors are loyal to the demon emperor, but maintain a high degree of autonomy. The four emperors are also major sects in the areas they manage, and the power in their regions is the minor sect. To the four emperors loyal, but also maintains a high degree of autonomy.
But if the strength changes, then the small sect will ignore the big sect.
For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, a group of princes used the Emperor of Zhou as a decoration.
What goes further is that small sects want to become big sects, such as the Shang Dynasty of Zhou Dynasty.
This is the case now.
The ancestor of the Qingzhou Mirage Tribe wanted to do just that.
Of course, they are all first-grade demon emperors, and they cannot die, otherwise the demon emperor will be blamed.
After all, the first-grade demon emperor is a strategic resource.
There was once a demon who assassinated a demon emperor and came to power during the Gengtian period. The demon emperor directly took off the head of the new demon emperor.
So even if he really loses, the Confucian Emperor will probably give up the governance rights of Qingzhou and become the overlord of a county under Qingzhou.
"That's right, it's that mirage monster. And the one supporting him from behind is Poison Emperor Xiang Liu, one of the Four Emperors." Emperor Ru said.
"Is it the one who has dealings with the Beidou family, or even the one who belongs to the Beidou family? In this case, the mirage demon may also be under the command of Beidou? Two of the four emperors of the demon world are from the Beidou family. They want to kill the demon Emperor?" Jiang Shan asked curiously.
"I don't know for the moment, but Xiang Liu and Gou Chen are probably related. The last time Tianjie led his army to attack, I was well prepared and sent some demon kings who were usually disobedient, so the losses were relatively small, but his The loss is smaller than mine, but the credit is far greater than mine. If there were no problems, it would be absolutely impossible. And whether the mirage monster belongs to Beidou or Xiang Liu's own arrangement is unknown. After all, based on my attitude toward Xiang Liu Understand, he is rebellious, and if he wants to go to heaven, he must be in the position of the Five Elders, so the probability of forming an alliance is greater than surrendering." Emperor Ru said.
"Then I wonder how his strength is compared to his predecessors?" Jiang Shan said.
"I don't know." The Confucian Emperor shook his head, "At the first level, until you actually take action, who knows who is better than whom? Especially the mirage, it is even weirder. The mirage is good at illusions, and this mirage doesn't know what it has gained. Opportunities can weave illusions at will and pry into the secrets of people's hearts. If you can see through his illusion, not to mention me, even you can kill him. But if you can't break through his illusion, you can open up the real world. The giant may also be killed by him.”
"Using illusions to kill the giant who opened up the real world? So powerful?" Jiang Shan was shocked when he heard this.
He knew that creatures like mirages were mostly found on the sea and could manipulate the fog to make ships at sea get lost and die.
The origin is also very strange. Some legends say that a pheasant that survives entering the sea becomes a mirage, while others say that a mirage is a special large clam. There is also a legend that a mirage is a variation of a dragon, shaped like a snake but with dragon horns.
There are all kinds of strange theories, and Jiang Shan doesn't know which one is the correct source, but it is too outrageous to be able to use illusions to kill the strong man who opened up the real world.
The difference between the virtual world and the real world is a word, but it is a world of difference, even bigger than the difference between the second grade and the first grade.
Any first-level immortal who can open up the true world can be called a creator.
"Because even the great master of the true world has flaws in his heart. It's just that his Taoist heart is strong and can not be invaded by inner demons. But if he falls into his illusion, it's hard to say. He can't kill the great master of the true world, but he can Let these selves in trouble kill themselves. These methods have a bit of the style of the dream demon back then. I am indeed not completely sure that I can break his illusion, and he is not sure that I will not wake up in the illusion. So, he and I have always been at peace with each other, but things are different now." Emperor Ru said.
The mirage demon is cautious and not completely sure, so he will not attack a first-grade demon emperor easily, and the Confucian Emperor will naturally not really try to see if he can break the illusion. What if he can't break it?
Therefore, everyone has their own concerns.
"Then what can I do now?" Jiang Shan asked. It is impossible for him to kill the mirage?
"Kill." When Confucian Emperor said this, a chill appeared in his gentle eyes, "For the Demon Emperor, it is the Gengtian Grand Ceremony, but for the Demon World, more accurately, it should be the Gengtian Battle. Qingzhou Chaos has begun. The mirage doesn't dare to attack me directly yet, but he has plans for the forces under my command. To make the entire Qingzhou chaotic, even if he can't replace me, he will greatly expand the power of his mirage clan. Share the territory of Qingzhou equally with me."
"So, you want me to kill those demon kings who are loyal to the mirage? Then you give me the list and I will kill them." Jiang Shan said, this way, it is simple and does not require much thinking.
"It's not just that. Nowadays, there are not many demon kings who openly declare their allegiance to the mirage. There are more demon kings in the dark and those who are still waiting and watching. These demon kings may have abilities, but not many. They don't have the ability to become big. They don’t dare to take refuge in anyone, but they will follow the crowd, and they are indeed a force, so they must be intimidated. The actual combat power of the mirage is not high, so it is good at illusions, which also leads to the mirage preferring to use tricks and sow discord. Now There are all kinds of commotions in Qingzhou, and some people are instigating them openly or covertly, but it is difficult for upright officials to deal with household affairs, especially the troubles caused by a group of demons. So it is really troublesome to deal with it, and it is easy to become disloyal to which side you favor. So it’s better to be quick, if you don’t obey at this time, both sides will be killed!” Emperor Ru said firmly.
"In this case, I'm afraid some demons will be dissatisfied." Jiang Shan said.
"As long as the twelve men under my command are convinced, does it matter whether the rest are convinced or not? They are all a group of monsters who do not read poetry and books, and fear power rather than virtue. As long as I do not fall, I will kill their father and take possession of them. Their wives, they will also be docile and submissive, and if I am weak, they will turn into wolf dogs and pounce on me. At this time, what I want is for Qingzhou to be peaceful and not cause trouble. As for justice or injustice, injustice or injustice, the demon world has never There is no fairness." Emperor Ru said without caring.
"In troubled times, heavy codes are used. Seniors, they all say that you are a Confucian emperor, but why do I feel that you are not practicing Confucianism and Legalism, but more like Legalism." Jiang Shan heard this, and he was not surprised that the Confucian Emperor was ruthless. After all, one party Where is the Demon Emperor, the elegant and elegant Emperor we just promised?
"Legalism? Is there a new theory in the Three Realms now?" Confucian Emperor asked doubtfully.
Legalism?
Jiang Shan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered that the theory of Zhuzi Baijia was originally proposed by Sima Qian and his father Sima Tan, and he also gave the name to classify Legalist thoughts.
In fact, although there is Legalist thought, Legalism does not have a complete inheritance like Confucianism.
The vast majority of representatives of Legalism were Confucian disciples.
And here there is no title of Legalism, it is just regarded as a special kind of Confucianism. However, fortunately, there is such a saying, so Jiang Shan did not show any timidity and said calmly: "There is this saying that the reason why the earth is in chaos today is because The king has no power and there are too many nobles, so it is necessary to increase the king's power and strengthen it through law, technique, and power..."
