Zhu Haoyun lowered his head and fell into a long silence again.

Yin Yang wanted to grab his hand, but his hand was raised in the air and slowly lowered, saying, "What is your relationship with Ziwei Venerable?"

Zhu Haoyun clenched his fists fiercely.

Yin Yang looked at this little move of his beloved disciple and let out a helpless laugh: "It seems that I guessed correctly." ”

"Teacher. Zhu Haoyun finally spoke: "I'm sorry." ”

"Nothing to be sorry about. Yin Yang said: "I have known for a long time. ”

Zhu Haoyun was stunned: "Teacher, you ...... Did you know?"

"Originally, I thought you were sent by the Seven Kills Priest, but later I found out that your personality was not compatible with Hitomi's monster at all, and he liked the kind of apprentice with a fiery personality, and you were too meek. Then I guessed that it might be the subordinate of the Lianzhen priest Hua Yue, but after Hua Yue came to Chang'an once, this inference was also denied by me. ”

"Other priests like Pojun, Greedy Wolf, Kaiyang, and Jumen don't seem to be people who can cultivate a character like you, so guess and guess, and the final suspicion can only fall on Ziwei Zun. Then something happened that made me more and more convinced of my own judgment. ”

Zhu Haoyun muttered, "Four Holy Beast Formation?"

The Four Holy Beast Array, that is, Chang'an's City Protector Array!

Yin Yang nodded: "Ordinary people are not interested in the Great Protective Array, and there is only one place in the world that wants to destroy the Great Protective Array, and that is the Temple." This array hindered the light of the goddess from shining and hindered the temple from entering the Tang Dynasty. If you want to completely bring Datang into the jurisdiction of the temple, breaking the city protection array is the most direct and effective way. ”

"According to Ziwei Zun's plan, I originally wanted you to enter the academy, because the city protection array was in the hands of the third master of the academy. If you want to get the Array Eye Hub, you must get the true inheritance of Mr. Three. However, your talent is not enough for you to enter the second floor of the academy, and at the same time, your belief in the temple is too religious, even if you are lucky enough to enter the academy, there is a high probability that you will be exposed. ”

"So you finally chose to come to Wangbei Tower, borrow the identity provided by Wangbei Tower as a shelter, and look for the eyes of Chang'an City. If you can't get the hub, then you will directly destroy the eye of the formation. This should be your plan, right? ”

Zhu Haoyun was already in a cold sweat.

Over the years, he has been cautious, for fear of revealing flaws, and he is also obedient to Yin Yang, since his talent is limited, he will make up for it from others.

It turned out that he did a very good job, at least Yin Yang didn't see any "flaws", and he also taught him all his skills, and vaguely expressed his intention to pass on the position of national teacher to him.

The national teacher of the Tang Dynasty is nominally appointed by the royal family, but in fact it is still taught by the master and apprentice, and the royal side is just acting like this, and will not really interfere with the change of authority of Wangbeilou.

Of course, this does not mean that the position of the national teacher can be fooled around, and the necessary rigor is still needed.

Zhu Haoyun is not the best candidate for the national teacher in essence, Li Hong also discussed this issue with Yin Yang when he was alive, but Yin Yang was very insistent, he said to Li Hong that although Zhu Haoyun is average, he has a strong ability to deal with things. Wangbeilou does not need a talented national teacher, but it needs a national teacher who can help His Majesty the Emperor solve problems.

Li Hong was persuaded by this reason, and acquiesced in Zhu Haoyun's identity as the next national teacher.

"Teacher, you have already guessed all this, so why do you still recommend me to His Majesty as a national teacher?" asked Zhu Haoyun.

Yin Yang said: "Because, after all, Wangbei Tower belongs to the temple and the Daomen, not to the Tang Dynasty." I can serve the Tang Dynasty and serve the Tang Emperor, but my heart has always been towards Jialan. Don't forget, the place we are in now is called Wangbei Tower. In Datang, my heart is to Jialan. ”

"Your Majesty is still confused by beauty after all, if it is not my race, its heart will be different, Wei Wan is a person from the Star Palace Pavilion, and her son is the remnant of the Demon Sect! How can the throne of the Tang Dynasty be handed over to this person? So I helped the noble concubine change the edict, and I will also pass on the position of national teacher to you. I just hope that you can protect Datang and continue to move forward. ”

"Haoyun, you have to remember that the temple can come to Datang, but the temple cannot replace Datang, this is the last requirement of the teacher for you. The Seven Kingdoms of the Great Wilderness, the other six countries can be without, but they can't do without the Tang Dynasty!

Zhu Haoyun frowned, obviously unimpressed by Yin Yang's words.

But he hid it very well, and Yin Yang was already very tired, so he didn't see Zhu Haoyun's disdain at the moment.

"The disciple remembers the teachings of the master. Zhu Haoyun said.

Yin Yang began to cough, coughing quite hard, giving people the feeling that he was going to cough up the past alive.

After a cup of tea, Yin Yang's cough slowly stopped, and he looked even older, unable to stand steadily. Zhu Haoyun hurriedly helped him sit down.

Yin Yang leaned against the wall, his breathing became very slow, and his eyes began to drift, he grabbed Zhu Haoyun's hand and said: "The most powerful guardian of Datang is dead, and the great array of protecting the city can only protect Chang'an, so the next war cannot be avoided, and the temple, the six countries, and even the barbarians on the grassland will attack Datang." The giant beast of Datang will encounter the predicament of everything he has done before, and at the same time there is no hope of victory. It's going to lose, and it's going to be very ugly. ”

"But as I said before, the Great Wilderness cannot be without the Tang Dynasty, and it must be a complete Great Tang Dynasty, if the Great Tang Dynasty is as fragmented as the Jin Kingdom back then, the Great Wilderness is about to lead to the end of the real sense. Haoyun, since you are a person from Ziwei, you will definitely be able to speak in front of your honor, and tell your honor for me, and when the light of the goddess shines on the Tang Dynasty, you won't have to fight it. ”

Zhu Haoyun said solemnly: "The disciple must bring the words, and please rest assured." ”

Yin Yang looked at the sky and muttered, "Your Majesty, the old minister has betrayed your trust. ”

After that, he took his last breath.

......

Thundered!

There was another thunderclap, and the rain showed no signs of stopping.

Chang'an City, a city that has existed for hundreds of years, even exudes a musty smell.

In the musty breath, there was also a faint sadness.

The doors of every house are hung with white and blue.

The people of Chang'an City are paying tribute to the emperor who has just died.

Li Hong was a good emperor and was deeply loved by the people.

Therefore, his death also made the people extremely sad, in addition to the sound of rain in Chang'an City, it was the sad cry of the people.

Today is the day of His Majesty the Emperor's funeral, and it is also the day when the edict is announced.

Hundreds of officials gathered in the imperial city hall.

Li Hong's personal eunuch stood in front of the hall with the holy decree in his hand, waiting for the final reading time.

When the auspicious time came, the eunuch took two steps forward and reverently opened the holy decree.

Then he froze.

Concubine Gao couldn't help but be a little anxious, and shouted in a suppressed voice: "Nian, what are you doing in a daze." ”

The eunuch clenched the ends of the decree, and his knuckles turned white from too much force.

When the decree was read, the expressions of the officials were different.

There is joy, there is doubt, there is surprise, there is indifference.

Concubine Gao was overjoyed, she had waited for thirty years for this day!

And the queen Weiwan had no expression, unhappy, but she couldn't see the loss.

The eldest prince Li Tong walked out of the crowd, and after stepping into the main hall, a eunuch immediately came over and helped him take off the outer robe, which was a newly sewn dragon robe!

This is a long preparation.

However, even if there is confusion in the heart, no one dares to question it at this moment.

Li Tong's gaze slowly swept over the hundred officials, staying on the queen's face for a little longer, and then he slowly walked to the dragon chair.

Datang has ushered in a new emperor!

Concubine Gao took the initiative to kneel down and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

The rest of the people immediately knelt down and cheered loudly.

The news of Li Tong's succession soon spread throughout Chang'an, followed by the entire Tang Dynasty, and finally the entire Great Wilderness.

According to the practice of the Tang Dynasty, the newly enthroned emperor needs to visit the master in the academy, and only the emperor who has the approval of the master can be regarded as truly sitting in that position.

However, this convention was directly broken by Li Tong.

He had no intention of going to the academy at all.

The academy also did not congratulate the new emperor on his accession to the throne.

Sensitive people have a premonition that a storm is coming.

For many years, the academy has been the strongest backing of Datang, but Li Tong has no interest in this shield.

The relationship between the academy and the Tang royal family has been rifted.

And this crack is so big that it can break directly at any time.

The attitude of the academy is not mentioned for the time being, and for such a big matter as the new emperor's accession to the throne, Wangbeilou did not even send anyone to come.

Could it be that Wangbeilou is also dissatisfied with the new emperor's accession to the throne this time?

If this is the case, then the origin of Li Tong's throne is very problematic.

His Majesty's edict was written by the national teacher himself, and it is almost impossible to tamper with it, and if it is to be tampered with, only the national teacher has the ability.

So a minister came to Wangbei Tower, wanting the national teacher Yin Yang to come out and explain the edict.

This minister is the queen's faction, and in their opinion, the throne should have belonged to the sixth prince Li Xuan, which is almost impossible to have any objections, but it is Li Tong who finally ascends to the throne, and this is a big problem.

Only Yin Yang can explain the matter of the edict clearly.

However, what the minister didn't expect was that the person who came out of Wangbei Tower was not Yin Yang, but his eldest apprentice Zhu Haoyun.

This person who has always been taciturn is wearing filial piety at the moment, and his expression is sad.

"The national teacher has passed away. ”

Zhu Haoyun faced the minister and announced the news of Yin Yang's death.

"From today on, I am the new national teacher of Datang and the new owner of Wangbei Tower. Zhu Haoyun continued.

The minister felt a little dizzy in his head.

It's a mess, it's a mess!

A thick cloud has shrouded the sky above Chang'an City, and sudden changes may come at any time.
