As the monarch of a huge country, although Emperor Wanlie enjoys the glory and wealth that others cannot reach, he also has a lot of troubles. He has passed the age of knowing the mandate of heaven, and he still has not established the crown prince, for this matter, there are many discussions inside and outside the government and the opposition, and the harem concubines are always blowing wind in his ears, which makes him anxious.

If you talk about the background, the crown prince's position is not the fifth prince Feng is unlicensed, his mother is the queen, the mother is the world, and the maternal uncle also has a lot of power in the court, after a hundred years, it is not difficult for the prince to ascend the throne smoothly, but the emperor is afraid of this, the consequences of the dictatorship of relatives have happened repeatedly in all dynasties, and the queen's temper has always been ruthless, and these concubines and children behind her may be killed by her who holds the power. As the king of Shoucheng, he would never allow this kind of thing to happen, so the five princes were not the best choice.

If it comes to talent, the position of the crown prince should belong to the three princes, he can recite poetry at the age of three, can write at the age of five, and can discuss state affairs at the age of ten. Now, at the age of 19, he can spread his wings and fly high, and he has sheltered many officials who want to enter the world under his wings. And as the emperor, he doesn't want to be so dazzling in his lifetime, a prince's edge is so dazzling, you must know that the merit is high, and there is no father and son in the emperor's house!

If it is preference, it is the eleventh prince who has no regrets, his mother Yu Guifei is not only noble, but also peerless, if it were not for the fact that the queen has no obvious immorality, and her mother's family has mastered the power, she could have taken her place in the name of justice. The eleventh prince has been under his knees since he was a child, and he is deeply loved, but the emperor understands that a ten-year-old child cannot be recognized by the minister, and even if he is reluctantly established as the crown prince, the young lord may be deceived by others, which is not a good strategy.

His sons are much more than mentioned, in addition to the eldest prince and the tenth prince who died young, there are also the second, fourth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth and twelfth princes. Each prince has more or less power behind him, of course, the mother of the second prince came from a humble background and could not convince the public, so she withdrew from the struggle for the throne very early; The six princes have always been obsessed with books, and they only know how to associate with scribes, so they should have no ambition to plot the world; And the Seven Princes...... Thinking of this, the emperor's heart could not help but ache, the weak child, his pale face, always appeared in his dreams, but he really did not want to face the incurable despair, so he rarely went to see him. Now, there are too many of his own sons, do you really want them to fight to the death?

The emperor's eyes suddenly lit up, that Fang Zhenren, who was a friend of Fang Fang, why didn't he think of this person. I think that at the beginning, when he was sick, it was this immortal man who gave him another life, why couldn't he use his strength again? The Lingyun Dynasty has always believed in Taoism, there are many protectors, and there are countless real people who canonized them, including many Taoist people, and it is not surprising that the emperor entrusted the important affairs of the prince to the Taoists. At the beginning, Emperor Xianlie Feng Qingyu asked a living immortal who had lived for three hundred years to help him identify his three princes, and finally decided to set up a young son as a prince, of course, the living immortal did not get any good end, the emperor gave him the "elixir", and the old man who had always been physically tough died so suddenly. Of course, the outside world has never received any information about such incidents, only a record of it in the royal secrets.

Feng Wuji, who was in Fenghua Palace, didn't know what his father was thinking about, and these days, he asked Hongru to explain to him various personnel in the palace every day, so as to get future instructions. The original Feng Wuxian was bedridden all the year round, and there was no teacher to teach him every day, only the emperor sent a few young Hanlin to explain some scriptures and history to him from time to time on a whim. And now the wind is without a trace, although it has only been half a month since he adapted to this place, the confusion when he first changed has completely disappeared, and his face has the shadow of the emperor's youth, and the firmness and haze faintly revealed between his eyebrows make all the subordinates in the palace dare not disobey. With the status of the prince, he sent people to borrow all kinds of history books from the library to find out the way to go in the future, but unfortunately, he was only a thirteen-year-old boy, and he could not understand these books containing the rise and fall of existence and intrigue without a special teacher, but he still persevered in searching, and time passed day by day.

In front of a simple thatched hut in Luoying Mountain, Ming Fang Zhenren looked at the invitation card in his hand, his brows furrowed into a big pimple, since he treated the seriously ill emperor many years ago, he deliberately kept his distance from the imperial court, but he didn't expect to be able to avoid this level in the end. Yang Tian let out a long sigh, he looked at those beloved disciples, his heart was indescribable, but mixed with a bit of hope. That scene not long ago had already brought waves to his Dao heart, so since this was the case, it was better to give it a try.

"Master, what is so difficult?" Yan Xiu looked at the master's restless appearance, and couldn't help but be a little worried, how could a cultivator be troubled by worldly things?

"It seems that the avenue has no chance with me." There was a rare trace of confusion in Ming Fang Zhenren's eyes, "Yan Xiu, you have to remember that although cultivators can not be bound by the world, they have many things to do, even if they have to abandon the avenue that is already close at hand. His face was unusually serious.

"Master, I don't understand." Yan Xiu asked strangely, "Isn't it important for us that Jindan Avenue is not as important as worldly things?" So what are we cultivators pursuing? ”

Looking at this fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy lovingly, Ming Fang Zhenren said thoughtfully: "We are still this earthly person after all!" Do you remember what I said about your uncle? ”

"You said he was a rare genius in the last hundred years." Yan Xiu blinked his eyes, indescribably curious, the master rarely mentioned that uncle and ancestor.

"His fate was actually extremely miserable." Ming Fang Zhenren thought of that scene again, many seniors of the master were at a loss in the face of a seriously injured proud disciple, and he still seems to remember it vividly, "For the sake of Li Min, he resolutely chose to break the heavens, not only was he punished by heaven, but even the beneficiary himself refused to let him go." We tried our best to save his life, but in the end he passed away alone. ”

Although he was already a cultivator, Yan Xiu was still a young man with strong blood and strength after all, and he asked with anger on his face: "Even if God doesn't let go of Uncle Shi, why should that beneficiary harm him, is it really so inevitable that he will take revenge?" ”

"Son, because that man has too much pre-eminence and power to prevent him from allowing the person who once influenced his most important decisions to live in this world." Ming Fang Zhenren's tone became solemn, "Although we are cultivators and have different powers from ordinary people, the way of cultivation is destined for us to be impossible to oppose the person who is known as the Son of Heaven, and it is still impossible to get rid of a human call, that is, a secular king, not to mention that he has ......" Speaking of this, Ming Fang Zhenren's face changed a little, and it seemed that there was still a trace of fear.

Yan Xiu finally came to his senses, "Master, have you also been summoned by the emperor, do you want to repeat the mistakes of your uncle and ancestor?" In a hurry, he grabbed his master's hand and begged again and again, "Master, are you willing to give up a few of our disciples just for the sake of an order from that faint king?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ming Fang Zhenren shouted, and even a few young disciples who were playing below were startled, what did the senior brother say wrong, why did the master get so angry? "Have you forgotten how your parents died? If there is a faint monarch in the court, how many Li people will suffer? ”

The words suddenly hurt the biggest scar in Yan Xiu's heart, and his tears couldn't help but roll in his eyes. "Master, I don't have a father and mother anymore, do you still want me and a few junior brothers and sisters to lose your only relative?"

"In order to reduce the tragedy that happened to you in the world, Master can't take care of himself. In the future, you have to walk well with these junior brothers and sisters of yours. As soon as he said it, Ming Fang Zhenren also felt a little sentimental, he took out two thin silk books from his sleeve, solemnly handed them to Yan Xiu, and instructed: "You take good care of these two books, one is the art of practicing qi, you and other disciples practice well, and the other is a wordless book passed down from the ancestor, if you find someone who is destined, you might as well give it to him." The inheritance of my Luoying lineage depends on you! After saying this, Ming Fang Zhenren took the invitation card and floated away, leaving the disciples with stunned faces and Yan Xiu with a sad face in a daze.
