Li Xian almost got carried away by the sudden words. Fortunately, after being a prince for sixty years, his heart's endurance is still very strong and he reacted quickly.
He looked at Su Ming, and the fire in his eyes gradually subsided, "National Master, is what you said true?"
Facing Li Xian's gaze, Su Ming smiled and said meaningfully, "Hasn't His Highness already received the news a long time ago? How can it be false?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Xian calmed down completely. Although he was just casually testing, he didn't expect to get such a response.
To be able to stand out among the many immortal cultivators and become the Grand Master of the Zhou Dynasty, the monk in front of him who looked harmless, like an enlightened monk, was by no means an easy person, nor was he as simple as he imagined. Maybe he had another purpose in becoming a national master, but now it seemed that he might be able to cooperate with him.
Facing Li Xian's changing expressions and flashing eyes, Su Ming had no intention of disturbing him at all. Instead, he slowly drank sake and kept thinking in his mind.
In fact, he had already made plans when he came to the banquet today: the prince's banquet with him was definitely not just to thank him for his life-saving grace, and Su Ming did not think that he could hide this from the old emperor.
Now both sides are grasshoppers on a rope. If something goes wrong, he doesn't know whether he will die, but the old emperor will definitely die.
These days, the old emperor is living younger and younger, which is definitely related to the great fortune of the Great Zhou Dynasty that he carries as a national advisor. Only by sharing the weight of fortune can he have the opportunity to become younger.
Although I don't know what method he used to avoid the ability of the emperor's dragon energy to block all methods, something must have gone wrong now, otherwise how could the old emperor have been so angry in the palace a few days ago.
The old emperor is unreliable and cannot rely on his power, so don't blame him for relying on external forces.
On the other side, Li Xian looked at Su Ming and suddenly laughed.
The bright laughter diluted the heavy atmosphere in the hall, and there was joy in his eyes, and he said slowly, "Since the Imperial Master is quick to speak, I won't beat around the bush. I want to know how long my father can live. ?”
Even though Su Ming had already guessed, this answer still surprised him, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart, "Good guy, you have been looking forward to your father's death for a long time, so just ask him how long he can live."
However, this question made Su Ming a little embarrassed. In fact, he didn't know how long the old emperor could live.
According to the old emperor's previous condition, it would not be a problem for him to live for another ten years, but now there is a problem. No one knows whether his condition will continue to deteriorate or get better.
Although Su Ming didn't know the answer, after pondering for a moment, he still gave Li Xian a sure message, "Your Majesty, you still have two years to live!"
Now, the most important thing is to give Prince Li Xian a reassurance and ask him to help him get out of the quagmire of the capital. As early as when the magic sword was refined, he had the idea of leaving the capital, but he never found the opportunity.
Now that he is half-step into the realm of Yuanshen, there is only a thin line between him and the realm of Yuanshen. Therefore, he must go out and find opportunities to cross this step.
If he is trapped in the capital, it will be difficult for him to step into the realm of the soul. Moreover, to step into the realm of the soul, he must go through the heavenly tribulation. It is impossible for him to go to the capital to go through the heavenly tribulation, in case the true identity of the great demon is exposed. , when the time comes, the vest that he worked so hard for will be ruined. Therefore, he must leave the capital.
Secondly, since he came to this world, he has not had a clear understanding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. All he has learned is from geography and history books, which is not comprehensive at all.
Only by truly understanding the world can we reach a higher realm.
Once Su Ming enters the realm of Yuan Shen, he can make use of his status as a national master, a monk, and great power. In addition, with the fate of the country at his side, it is impossible to say that he will be able to truly control the Great Zhou Dynasty and become the leader of a country. Do your best to support yourself.
Of course, if you want to leave now, you have to go through a curve to save the country.
After all, the old emperor is in a bad state now, and there may be changes in his rash resignation. Moreover, as the Great Zhou Imperial Master, this identity is very important. In the future, it will also be an important way for him to intercept the fate of the court and cannot be discarded. Therefore, he cannot leave without saying goodbye. .
Since you are in the court, you must abide by the rules of the court. This is the real reason why he went to the banquet.
First, let someone propose to the court that he be transferred out of the imperial capital, and he cannot come forward in this matter. If it fails, he can bid farewell to the emperor himself. If it fails again, he will think of other ways out. This is the best way to keep his vest. Good way.
Moreover, Su Ming's statement that the old emperor still had two years left was not an empty promise. If he could step into the realm of the soul within two years, he would come back and find an opportunity to kill the old emperor with the help of others. , same thing.
With his powerful Yuan Shen and his great fortune, it is not difficult to perform small tricks in the palace.
On the other side, Li Xian, who heard this, was stunned as if a gift bag had hit his head. Two years? The huge ecstasy almost knocked him unconscious, and the strong excitement instantly swallowed up his reason. It took him a long time before he came back to his senses.
"National Master, are you telling the truth?" No matter how deep Li Xiancheng was and how strong his willpower was, his voice was full of trembling when he said this.
Don't blame him for being tempted, no one could bear to deal with this matter. Su Ming's identity was there, and what he said was not completely untrustworthy. Therefore, Li Xian believed it for a short time.
"A poor monk never lies. Although His Majesty has the appearance of longevity, it does not come without a price. Since ancient times, emperors have not been able to live forever. This is an iron rule and no one can be an exception!" After Su Ming finished speaking, he silently added in his heart, If he is not dead in two years, I will kill him directly.
If the old emperor is not dead, how can he still fish in troubled waters and control the government? If he is not dead, how can he still steal the fortune of the court, so he must die!
"Your Highness, this poor monk is definitely not lying. Your Majesty is already seventy-six years old. He almost returned to his youth before, but became old again. This is definitely against common sense. Spring comes out of dead wood, and youth returns to youth. This is not the case in the world of immortality. It’s strange, but it’s absolutely impossible for this to happen to His Majesty.”
"The poor monk has the fate of the imperial court, so he must have sensed it. Therefore, His Majesty will definitely not live for two years! During this period, I hope His Majesty will make preparations in advance and not be impatient." At this point, Su Ming said The bias in the words is obvious.
"Huh~"
Li Xian took a long breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and slowly regained his composure. Regardless of whether what he said was true or false, he had survived for so many years, not less than a year or two. More importantly, this person had already been biased towards The benefits of being with him and winning over him are obvious.
Thinking of this, his mentality gradually slowed down, and the reason he had lost due to excitement returned again.
"Thank you for your advice, Imperial Master. I wonder what the Imperial Master wants? I will try my best to satisfy you."
Seeing that he had regained his composure, Su Ming also nodded secretly. He was worthy of being the prince of the dynasty, and his character was admirable. Therefore, he did not mince words, "Your Highness, what this poor monk wants is nothing more than to practice meditation, discuss Taoism, and cultivate himself." It has also reached a bottleneck, so the poor monk wants to leave the capital and wander around the world, hoping that His Highness will make it happen."
