Chapter 153: Shangwudang Mountain
Jiuyuan City Inn!
Murong Hua, Mu Chen, and Wang Shujie originally saw hope, but now they were arranged in the post house.
Since Lu Jiuyuan's accession to the throne, most of the post houses have been used for other journeys, leaving only the largest post house for foreign envoys or people from other dynasties with status.
Now Murong Hua, Mu Chen and Wang Shujie are such people.
The three of them followed Li Ru happily, originally thinking that they would see Lu Jiuyuan in a day or two at most, but the answer they waited for was that Li Ru told them that the Jiuyuan Dynasty had its own academy, and they didn't say a word about anything else, and then arranged them in the post house.
"Master, Mu Lao, do we have to wait like this?" Wang Shujie is the youngest, and naturally he is the most impatient.
"yes, do you really want the two of us to stay with you like this?" Mu Chen said the same.
"But"
"What is it? Do you think he will see us for an academy, and he said that there are academies in the Nine Abyss Dynasty, so what's the point of waiting? ”
It seemed that Murong Hua was going to say something, but he was interrupted by Mu Chen, Mu Chen didn't think that if he continued to wait like this, he would wait for an opportunity, so he might as well think of other ways.
"Alas! What else can I do? Do you want me to give up? I finally saw a glimmer of hope, do you think I will give up? Murong Hua sighed and said, I really can't give up like this.
Since six years ago, they have been looking for six years, plus it was a few years when they disappeared just now, I am afraid that it will be no less than ten years, if it weren't for them cultivators, they would have been unable to walk now, and now that they have found that glimmer of hope, they will definitely not give up, even if they are not the person they are looking for, they can't make them regret it.
"Alas, forget it, whatever you want! Anyway, I've been waiting for so many years, and I can't miss this time. In the end, Mu Chen could only sigh, he only hoped that Murong Hua would give up after this time.
"Jie'er, how about I let you go around Jiuyuan City? How does it compare to the Canglong Divine Court? Finally, Mu Chen looked at Wang Shujie and asked.
The peculiar dynasty of the Jiuyuan Dynasty still made Mu Chen a little interested, there were countless innate realm brocade guards in a dynasty less than half a state, there were two great grandmasters who were strong, one of the ten great masters of the literary division, and several of the eight literary divisions, such a situation was not weaker than an empire.
"Master, do you want to listen to the truth or lie?" Wang Shujie looked at Mu Chen a little timidly.
"What? Are you afraid that I won't be able to beat you? Hearing this, Mu Chen's face was full of black lines, and of course he heard the truth, "Tell the truth." ”
"Master, the news I hear the most on the streets of Jiuyuan City is the imperial examination, and a lot of heat is being discussed, if it really wants to be compared with the Canglong Divine Court, except for the Canglong Divine Court that is more prosperous than the Jiuyuan Dynasty, everything else is inferior to the Jiuyuan Dynasty, especially in terms of vitality."
"Hehe, Jer, is it really that exaggerated as you say?" Mu Chen obviously didn't believe it, if that was the case, then wouldn't it be a matter of time before he surpassed the Canglong Divine Court?
"Master, that's what it is, I asked them some rumors about Emperor Yuan, when Emperor Yuan was still the King of Jiuyuan in Beijun, he was already loved by the people, and now Emperor Yuan's policies are helpful to the people." Wang Shujie saw that Mu Chen was not satisfied with what he said, and continued to explain that he was just telling the truth.
"Isn't it like I haven't hit you in a long time, and now I'm looking for a feeling?" The more Mu Chen listened, the more dissatisfied he was with Wang Shujie's answer.
"Okay, Jie'er is just telling the truth, you and I know very well what the situation of the Nine Abyss Dynasty is, but you don't want to admit it." Murong Hua interrupted Mu Chen.
He knew that Mu Chen only valued the Canglong Divine Court, and other dynasties did not value it, especially the most backward place in the upper three states, but the appearance of the Jiuyuan Dynasty made it really difficult for him to accept, and after careful calculation, Mu Chen was also a person with a relatively high status in the Canglong Divine Court, but he did not serve in the court.
"The Jiuyuan Dynasty has been dealing with the major families since Emperor Yuan ascended the throne, and this is the first time that Kyushu has appeared, haven't you noticed anything different?" Murong Hua asked.
"Old man, you're talking about the monopoly of the family, indeed, if the Canglong Divine Court also disposes of the monopoly of the family, will it rise to another level?" Hearing this, Mu Chen said.
He really doesn't like the family family very much, especially those who monopolize the officialdom and wealth of the entire court, maybe some family families will not have such a situation, but the vast majority of family families are like this.
"Alas! Haven't you heard of what I said? Murong Hua was relieved to see Mu Chen's reaction, but he was also dissatisfied.
It is gratifying that Mu Chen saw the influence of the existence of the family on the imperial court, and this is why he didn't let the entire Mu family participate in the battle for imperial officialdom, as for the wealth, he had to rely on his own ability, and the dissatisfied thing was that Mu Chen only saw this step.
"Alas! Old man, I finally admit that the Nine Abyss Dynasty is amazing, why are you dissatisfied again? Mu Chen naturally didn't want to hear Murong Hua's sigh at him.
"You," Murong Hua didn't know how to say it, "haven't you thought about the consequences of Emperor Yuan doing this?" All the clans were cleaned up, and the rest of the clans were supervised from time to time. ”
"You mean the rebellion of the family? No, judging from the strength that Emperor Yuan has now, the family is not an opponent at all. Mu Chen said, he still didn't understand what Murong Hua meant.
"Forget it, let's tell you this, we can think of this, do you think Emperor Yuan can not think of it?" Murong Hua looked at Mu Chen and Wang Shujie, and saw that the two continued with expectant eyes, "Obviously, Emperor Yuan also thought of this, since he knows what kind of result there will be, and Emperor Yuan still does this, it means that he has enough confidence in the strength he has mastered, and if he wants to do this, he is afraid that the entire Kyushu will have to remove half of it, since he can bear the consequences, then it means that Emperor Yuan has enough talents under him, and as for the imperial examination, Emperor Yuan is not just to balance the children of the Han family with the family." ”
Speaking of this, Murong Hua paused slightly, and then continued, "Do you think the Canglong Divine Court can achieve this level? ”
With Murong Hua's questioning, Mu Chen and Wang Shujie were silent, and they were still far from being able to achieve the same level as the Jiuyuan Dynasty.
"Yes, the Canglong Divine Court can't do it, the huge size of the Divine Court is not much bigger than the Nine Abyss Dynasty, the influence of the family is already deep-rooted, and it also controls the economic lifeline of the entire Divine Court and half of the military strength, obviously it can't be like the Nine Abyss Dynasty, the Divine Court is only a state of equilibrium, once one side is out of balance, no one knows."
Murong Hua didn't say anything about it anymore, whether it was the family or the Divine Court, it was very clear that it was best to maintain a state of balance, and what they should do was the default, and it was basically difficult to break the balance.
"By the way, Jie'er, I saw you talking just now, what are you going to say?" Murong Hua remembered Wang Shujie's movements when he spoke just now, so he asked.
"Mu Lao, I heard another news when I was wandering around Jiuyuan City, maybe we can meet the person we are looking for through other people." Wang Shujie said.
"What's the news?"
Hearing this, Murong Hua and Mu Chen both looked at Wang Shujie, which made Wang Shujie a little nervous.
"The Jiuyuan Dynasty established Wudang as the state religion, and it is rumored that the Emperor Taishang of the Jiuyuan Dynasty is on Wudang Mountain."
"Really? I immediately went up the hill to find him. Mu Chen's first reaction was to arrest Lu Huaan, but unfortunately Wang Shujie's words were fat, and he felt powerless.
"Master, it is said that Zhang Sanfeng, the head of Wudang Mountain, is a great grandmaster powerhouse, and it is rumored that the Emperor Taishang of the Jiuyuan Dynasty was originally followed by a grandmaster powerhouse."
"Grandmaster? Grand Master? Could it be that the powerhouses in the Grandmaster Realm are all cabbages now? It is not enough to have a great grandmaster strong on a Wudang Mountain, but also a strong grandmaster. "Hearing this, Mu Chen really felt weak, and everything didn't go well after coming to the Jiuyuan Dynasty.
"Let's go up the mountain and visit in person!"
Murong Hua is worthy of being the one with the most special status among the three, and he has made the final decision, and he went up the mountain to visit where there was anything else: trouble.
However, for the Jiuyuan Dynasty is becoming more and more impressive, one Wang Chao has three great grandmaster powerhouses, and one grandmaster is strong, obviously more than that.
