Silently all the way, the two quickly entered the imperial city.
If you don't see the emperor's residence strong, you will know that the emperor is respected.
The imperial city of the Great Zhou Dynasty was far more majestic and luxurious than the Forbidden City of later generations. Moreover, the imperial city of later generations was just a building with only some symbolic meaning, but here was the real imperial capital and the center of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
As soon as you see it, it is extremely prosperous, and the clear light shines down. The majestic palace, the door pillars and the ground are made of sapphire, spotless, and covered with glazed tiles, which is bright and shiny.
This is not a secular dynasty, but a dynasty with supreme power that can suppress the world. It is currently in an era of extreme prosperity.
The moment he stepped into the imperial city, a huge pressure gathered from all directions, like an invisible net, suppressing Su Ming's soul, making the magic power in his body stagnant and almost unable to function.
He frowned slightly and glanced at Chen Faxuan in front of him. His expression did not change and he was still walking slowly. Am I the only one affected?
Su Ming secretly thought in his heart, and then he quietly opened his Dharma Eyes, and what he saw was: the palace was deep, and the auspicious and wealthy auras coming from all directions turned into leaping dragons and tigers, landing on it, suppressing everything, and the purple-green luck filled the palace. Above the city, this place is covered and all methods are prohibited. Except for Qi, Blood and Martial Arts, all Taoist methods will be suppressed here.
The mighty dragon energy comes from all directions, sinks in the sky, and evolves into a colorful canopy. On top, entrenched is a divine dragon, with fangs and claws, unparalleled in power.
Seeing this scene, Su Ming withdrew his Dharma Eyes and finally understood. It turned out that the will of the billions of people in the Great Zhou Dynasty gathered here to form dragon energy and suppress all divine channels. This was one of the reasons for the origin of the forbidden area in the palace.
Chen Faxuan, who was walking in front, seemed to notice something. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he ignored it. No one can understand how vast and irresistible the power of the dynasty's dragon energy is better than the monks within the system.
Even the real Yuanshen will be affected by the dragon's energy in this court. His soul is banned and he cannot use his magic power. The reason why the Great Zhou Dynasty can suppress the states and counties all over the world is also based on the dragon's energy of the court.
Chen Faxuan wanted Su Ming to feel the vast power of the imperial court, to let him retreat and put away those petty thoughts that he shouldn't have. Although this man seemed to be kind to others and looked like a virtuous monk, those There is no old monster in the practice who is not deep-minded and full of calculations. Only the most intuitive feelings can shock him.
Moreover, luck has its power. In the imperial palace, if you have any thoughts that are unfavorable to His Majesty the Emperor, you will be attacked by the dragon energy and will not be able to enter the imperial city at all. Of course, if someone within the imperial court had such thoughts, as long as they did not use Taoism to harm others, Qi Luck would not be able to fight back. At most, they would secretly warn the emperor.
······
Three steps to the first floor, ten steps to the pavilion.
There are cornices and corners, carved beams and painted buildings, and the building is covered with glazed tiles, giving it a clear light. There are also lotuses in full bloom in the alchemy pond, the chirping of cranes is clear, the frost stones are dotted under the precious tree, and the pine moss leaves traces.
As the palace maids shuttled around, their colorful skirts fluttered and the birds and their fluttering birds formed a beautiful scene. Occasionally, when they passed by, many palace maids cast strange glances at Su Ming. After all, a handsome and handsome man like him couldn't be more handsome. Much more, not to mention, he is still a monk.
Of course, it's just curiosity and surprise. Naturally, there won't be any bloody love at first sight incident. This is the palace, and the women here are the emperor's women. How dare they have such treasonous thoughts.
Not long after, after passing through many deep palaces, Chen Faxuan brought him to a palace.
"I am here to see you, Your Majesty."
After entering the palace, Chen Faxuan bowed and saluted, but Su Ming focused on the dragon chair at the top of the hall.
An old man with white hair and beard is sitting there, wearing a black dragon robe, with a red dragon embroidered on it showing its teeth and claws, shining brightly, with its eyes wide open, looking very majestic, as if it wants to break out of the clothes, as if Just like alive.
Although the old man's beard and hair are white, his face is rosy, his skin is smooth, and he is energetic. Although his eyes are plain and do not show majesty, they reveal a heavy pressure that makes people dare not look directly.
"Flat body!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Although Su Ming knew at the first sight that this man was the Shenwu Emperor who had been in power for sixty years, he was still a little surprised when he actually saw him. He originally thought that the old emperor looked senile and dying, but he didn't expect that the old emperor looked senile and dying. Will be so energetic.
Before, he had guessed the real reason why the imperial court wanted to select a national advisor. The idea of being separated from the country was just a cliché. The real purpose should be to extend the life of the emperor above. After all, after being the emperor for sixty years, he had the right to Once the taste has been tasted, no one wants to lose it. Since ancient times, how many emperors have sought the way to immortality?
What's more, this is still in a fairy world.
But now I see that he is overthinking.
"Are you Pudu Cihang? When we meet today, it is indeed extraordinary. Come and give the master a seat." When Su Ming was looking at Emperor Shenwu, Emperor Shenwu was also observing him.
Although Su Ming had a handsome appearance and extraordinary bearing, Emperor Shenwu did not look down on him because of this, but instead appreciated him even more. It was only normal for Master Yuanying to have such a demeanor.
As soon as he finished speaking, two pretty and lovely palace maids brought chairs. Su Ming was slightly shocked at the moment when they turned around, because he felt the strong and hot energy and blood from their bodies. Unexpectedly, they looked soft and weak. The palace maid turned out to be a master of martial arts. Especially when the dynasty's dragon energy prohibits all methods, anyone who wants to get close to the emperor must first pass them.
It is worthy of being a forbidden area in the imperial city. It is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
"Amitabha, this poor monk is just an ordinary monk. Your Majesty has thanked you for your praise. Thank you very much for giving him a seat." After saying the Buddha's name, Su Ming sat down directly without any hesitation.
Seeing his move, the old emperor showed a smile in his eyes, and then said to Chen Faxuan who was beside him, "Chen Jingshi, please go down and do your work first."
Chen Faxuan, who was on the side, glanced at the two maids and bowed, "Wei Chen, please leave."
After Chen Faxuan left, the emperor also ordered the maids serving beside him to step back. As they left, only the two of them were left in the entire palace.
The old emperor looked at Su Ming for a moment and then said, "Congratulations to the master for winning the top spot on the ladder, becoming my Great Zhou Imperial Master, and enjoying the fortune of the imperial court. I just don't know where the Imperial Master will come from?"
"The poor monk is unworthy of the title of National Master. The poor monk is a man from the mountains. He was lucky enough to receive the Buddhist inheritance. This time he joined the world to help the world, spread the way of compassion, and accumulate practice." Su Ming said these words before. I have already thought about it countless times in my heart, so naturally I opened my mouth to do it.
Although there is a suspicion of deception, this kind of answer is much better than him randomly fabricating his apprenticeship. After all, Su Ming's background cannot withstand scrutiny. If the court fails to find out after detailed investigation, that is The crime of deceiving the emperor is worse than directly stating that he is a casual cultivator who occasionally acquired the Buddhist heritage.
Regarding Su Ming's vague statement, Emperor Shenwu did not pursue it. Instead, he showed a warm smile on his face, "The words of the Imperial Master are wrong. I recruit monks from all over the world and use the method of climbing the ladder to select those who can truly take on the responsibility of the nation." There is no reason for someone who holds the position of master to change orders day by day, and there is no monk in the world who is more suitable for this position than the national master. Therefore, the position of national master belongs to you."
