Chapter Seventy-Three: Goodbye Su Jian (3)
A look of emotion appeared on Luo Zi's face. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Finally rolled over and dismounted.
Although Su Jian kept his head down, he had actually been paying attention to this side, and when he saw this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart - if His Majesty had stayed on the horse, then he would not be able to stop in front of His Majesty's ghost horse for more than half an hour, because that would mean that His Majesty was not in the mood to talk to him.
But now that His Majesty can turn over and dismount for himself, it shows that his "emotional card" has worked, and His Majesty is willing to listen to himself, so there is hope for what he asks for......
Su Jian lowered his head.
Luo Zi held the handle of the horsewhip inlaid with gold, inlaid with sapphire and red agate, because he didn't need to hurry to put away the aura injected into it, so the embodied whip rope was also retracted into the handle, stepping on the dark inconspicuous boots with black cloud and red lines, wearing a white midshirt with a red neckline, a black cardigan robe, the sleeves of the robe came with the wind, and his hands were weak: "Su Qing, quickly flatten, quickly flattened!"
Su Jian looked sincerely frightened and stood up with Luo Zi's hands: "Weichen is frightened, thank you for Longen......"
"Su Qing, I haven't seen you for a long time!
Although Luo Zi really wanted to deal with this Su Jian quickly, and then go back to the palace before noon to refine the dragon qi on the corpse, but in the face of a cautious and cunning master like Su Jian who refused to leak his flaws, he still felt that it was better for him to settle down and follow the routine.
"The old minister is grateful to His Majesty, and he has been okay recently, and he has finally lived up to the emperor's grace. ”
But Su Jian couldn't wait after the greetings: "The Stygian Moon City guarded by the minister has also reached a million spirits. ”
Luo Zi was immediately surprised, he had never seen Su Jian so calm in his memory-
As explained above, the division of ghost towns into levels is something closely related to the power of officials, what level of ghost town, with what level of officials, and what level of rights can officials have.
And the division of ghost towns, in the Forbidden City is ranked, the ghost city of the second grade is typical of the Falling Moon City, the most important condition is the number of spirits, this "spirit" refers to the ghosts, monsters and other resident ghost city "population", the second grade must be five million spirits as the most basic number.
And the most important condition for the previous official to be promoted to the third-grade ghost city for the Stygian Moon City is that it must be based on a population of one million......
Now can you understand why after Luo Zi drove Su Jian to Stygian Moon City, the two monarchs and ministers were still able to get along well, but now that Su Jian has been demoted to Stygian Moon City for nine years, Luo Zi can't tolerate Su Jian's reason for getting power?
Su Jian is a talented person, and he is a courtier with great talents in governing the world, as a Bole, Luo Zi can be happy to let Su Jian exert his talents under him, but as a ghost master, Luo Zi will never allow Su Jian to grow and expand under him!
When Su Jian was demoted to Stygian Moon City, Stygian Moon City was just a small ghost town with less than 150,000 spirits, but only nine years later, it was managed by Su Jian into a big ghost town with a population of more than one million...... This person, if he has the slightest disagreement with himself in his heart, it is worth ambushing and suppressing!
Luo Zi just smiled at Su Jian's words, did not answer, and said lightly: "Yes, millions of spirit bodies......"
There was too little information that these six words could tell Su Jian, but he knew that Luo Zi had listened to it, so he hurriedly said: "That's the case, Your Majesty, the minister has been waiting for Your Majesty here for a long time, just for this-"
Su Jian said, took out a small box of purple lacquer pear blossom wood with a simple style from the wide sleeves of his official robe, his face was as usual, and he offered it with both hands.
Seeing this, Liu Dun behind him hurriedly stepped forward two steps to take the small box in Su Jian's hand, but Luo Zi raised his hand to stop him, Luo Zi smiled and personally stepped forward to take over the small box in order to show his closeness and trust with Su Jian.
When I opened it, the black silk cloth inside was soft and presented, and it was a red halo of inner pills all over the body! (Every demon and ghost who has become refined and cultivated will generate an inner pill in the Heavenly Spirit Sea, most of the inner pills of ghosts are black, commonly known as "ink pills", most of the inner pills of corpse demons are red, commonly known as "red pills", and most of the inner pills of plant goblins are cyan, commonly known as "moss pills", and the inner dans of animal goblins are varied, but they are collectively called "flow pills".) )
It's still a "red pill" whose body is still alive - and this breath is ...... Could this be Su Jian himself!
(The Inner Dan who is alive is overflowing with attribute halo all over his body, and the Inner Dan who is dead is dull and lifeless.) )
Luo Zi couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw this, and quickly raised his head to look at Su Jian first, and saw that Su Jian still lowered his head indifferently, as if he had handed over just an ordinary bead, and he was undecided.
"No, His Majesty gave the Spirit Bead to assist Su Jian in building the Stygian Moon City, and now the Stygian Moon City has grown and grown, and it can relieve His Majesty's worries and sorrows, and hereby Su Jian will return the Spirit Bead to His Majesty's hands!
When Su Jian said this, he resolutely bowed his head and kowtowed, shouting: "The minister is grateful, thank you for your grace!"
Luo Zi was still holding the small box of purple lacquered pear blossom wood in his hand, just like holding a hot potato, he looked at the "red pill" in the open box, and then looked at Su Jian who was kneeling and kowtowing deeply on the ground, and for the first time he faced Su Jian, his heart was heavy......
Su Jian is showing his loyalty......
…………
The clatter of horses' hooves disappeared as they climbed over the distant hill.
Su Jian was still kneeling under the locust tree, his forehead pressed deep against the damp grass, and he couldn't get up for a long time.
For a long time, for a long time, in response to the begging of the eyes of the children of the Su family, the master walked dozens of steps to the side behind Su Jian, and asked softly: "Dong Weng?"
Su Jian raised his head slowly, and saw that he was covered with cold sweat, and the master was worried in his heart, lowered his eyes and pretended not to see it, and did not speak.
I only heard that my own Dong Weng breathed a deep sigh of relief.
The master knows that Dong Weng has finally passed this hurdle in front of His Majesty's eyes.
Su Jian raised his head and looked at the remaining horseshoe prints on the road where Luo Zi left in the distance, and after a while, he stood up with his knees propped up, and then he found that his back was cold, and when he investigated it, it turned out that he had been soaked for a long time-
Su Jian turned his head to look at his master, his eyes were tired as if he was old alive, Su Jian called: "Zihu." ”
The master hurriedly came over and bowed his head in response: "Dong Weng." ”
Su Jian Ah Ah Ah ......Ah Forget it, let's go back to the city guard first!"
His Majesty was not as ruthless as he thought, but pushed his Neidan "Red Pill" back into his hands: "Su Qing, what Qing means, I know it. However, although it is said that it is reluctant for a while, but our monarchs and ministers have been worried for more than 700 years......
Thinking of this, Su Jian's heart was bitter, he turned around and walked silently towards the ghost carriage.
"Dong Weng!" Seeing Su Ji's lifeless appearance, the master suddenly felt a twitch in his heart, and couldn't help but exclaim.
Su Jian didn't turn around, but he still tilted his head slightly, indicating that he was listening.
The master gritted his teeth, stepped forward a few steps, lowered his head and said in disapproval: "Dong Weng, although that thing did not work, but you are still one of the forty-nine ministers of the court, you should not be discouraged! Although you are no longer favored by Your Majesty as before, after all, Dong Weng, you were one of the closest foreign ministers around Your Majesty, and your foundation is still there, and besides, Your Majesty and the forty-nine ministers have long been immortal--Dong Weng, are you still worried that you can no longer serve Your Majesty?"
"Besides, Your Majesty's momentum is unstoppable, Dong Weng, you can hide from the front of Your Majesty's stage to behind the scenes, and you don't have to be anxious about deceiving Dong Weng on this stage!"
After hearing this, Su Jian's eyes gradually shone again - Zihu is right, after a long time, he always has a chance to regain His Majesty's favor and become above 10,000 people under that person again!
Moreover, His Majesty's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and he has lost the best opportunity and qualification to confront His Majesty...... Leaving His Majesty's sight and seeing it from this is not a bad thing!
Su Jian thought about it like this, and said that Jiang Youwen is nothing, even if he can become a powerful minister because of His Majesty's favor for a while, but his means and abilities are always not worthy of himself, one day when he encounters a big event, His Majesty will always find Jiang Youwen's shortcomings and re-promote himself!
"Okay!" Su Jian looked at his master with appreciation, sighed in his heart that he had not raised him in vain, and waved his big hand, "Come on, let's go back to the city!"
Now that he has returned to His Majesty's sight, it's time to re-plan the upgrade of the ghost town.
The big war is coming, the greater the strength, the greater the benefits that can be obtained in it!
Su Jian glanced at the children of the Su family behind him, he is now a corpse, and he can't extend his heirs for the time being, so these seven people under his command are all his own righteous sons. He was thinking, during the war, which of the 49 ministers' colleagues should be entrusted with a small favor, inserted into the Quartet army, and made military achievements......
…………
Su Jian's matter has never been a trivial matter in Luo Zi's eyes.
Luo Zi can understand that Su Jian's painstaking efforts to re-submit to the soft and subordinate are nothing more than the choices made in order to survive and glorify the lintel when the war is imminent.
Just now, he saw the so-called "children of the Su family" kneeling behind Su Jian, and when he was in Shanghai, he often heard the head of Qi say that the original Ministry of Works, Lord Su, built a seven-story glazed pavilion in the Dark Moon City, and wrote "Liujie Building", which was built to accommodate the talents and demons of the netherworld......
Su Jian is not small.
Luo Zi recalled the look in Su Jian's eyes when he handed over his Neidan "red pill": but he knew how to understand current affairs very well.
As long as he has enough strength, Su Jian will definitely not take the risk of rebellion, and when will he lose his strength...... He didn't dare to attack him! And as long as he didn't die, Su Jian wouldn't be able to sit comfortably on that chair at all times!
Showing weakness is something that will definitely happen.
…………
"It's almost noon, Your Majesty should go back to the palace, you should hurry up and prepare the golden basin, brocade handkerchief, and dragon robe for washing......
Under the Underworld Palace, Mama Yue's voice sounded in the majestic Taihe Palace.
The base camp of the Forbidden City is in the mountains, and no one realizes it.
The ghost kings of the underworld always think that since it is a force in the underworld, it must be the same as them, and the central ghost city is built in the middle of the yin and yang worlds, or they take some risks and build directly in the underworld.
After all, if you build a ghost town in the underworld, it will be much easier to use materials and speed.
Therefore, since knowing the existence of the Forbidden City, almost all powerful ghost masters have secretly sent their men to explore where the base camp of the legendary Forbidden City is.
Of course, there is nothing.
After all, no one would have thought that there would be a ghost lord who would be able to build a building as large as the Yin-Yang Ghost City in the Yang Realm, not to mention manpower and material resources, it is difficult to find a place - and the Hades Palace happened to be built in the Yang Realm.
Sleeping Mountain, those who don't know about it in the yang world say that it is "Clear Mountain".
Sleeping Mountain is the middle one of Qiandian Mountain, and it is also the place where Luo Zi usually stays, and under the sleeping mountain is Luo Zi's sleeping hall.
It's been a long time since it's been so lively, and the palace maid Green Peach passed through the side door of the celebrant with her head down and her head down, thinking so in her heart. But she didn't have a hint of joy - because of the excitement, it was all because a man was going to return. That person was His Majesty Taizong.
Their Emperor.
Green Peach was worried in her heart, since she knew that Her Majesty was coming back, she had always been like this, nine years ago she was a rare favored palace maid around Her Majesty, Gai only because she inadvertently broke a blue and white porcelain glazed blue teacup, and was relegated to the Huanyi Bureau by His Majesty.
Listening to the sisters around her, His Majesty originally wanted to kill her directly, but thanks to the fact that day was the Yin Chen of His Majesty's Queen Mother, Mama Yue gave her a mouthful, and only then did she pick up a small life - I think that the day before yesterday, His Majesty also gave her the pears at hand, this preference change is unpredictable, and it is really difficult to figure out.
And now nine years have passed, because the "old people" in the palace are prosperous, so she is often taken care of by the high-ranking "old people", and since now she has been able to get out of the Huanyi Bureau and enter the master of ceremonies.
But now I have to serve by His Majesty's side for a while...... Green Peach now fantasizes that she can be loved by His Majesty again and get out of this unattainable status, but she is also afraid in her heart that she will anger Your Majesty again and return to the lowly place of the Huanyi Bureau......
Green Peach held the golden basin in her hand, although she took small steps, but she was not slow in a hurry, she passed by the third bend of the left hand of the celebrant supervisor, and passed by a group of people who did not know what they were carrying.
Green Peach inadvertently glanced at it, and the adult who led it seemed to be Lord Dong of the Inner Mansion......
