Yang Luming knew that Emperor Changduan summoned him late at night, and he was definitely not chatting.

Therefore, at this moment, Emperor Changduan is there to inquire about some things about Yingying, and he must not have entered the topic yet.

"Yingying? I didn't expect it to be such a name in the end, but my niece is interesting. Emperor Changduan put down the book in his hand and said slowly.

Yang Luming immediately knelt down.

Ying Ying was picked up, and it has been two or three days.

He naturally had to inquire about the incident in detail, but he didn't expect that this female disciple would leak so much information regardless of public or private.

He couldn't help but feel that it might have been a very wrong decision to plant love Gu on her in the first place.

In the past two days, Ying Ying has been closed and has been staying in a small building in the mountains, and it is His Majesty who has successfully completed several errands before Ying Ying, which is particularly gracious.

With His Majesty's wisdom, how could he not understand this?

Your Majesty knows the inner courtyard and knows what kind of people it is.

After Ying Ying's identity was exposed, he could still have the life to come back alive, even he was a little surprised, presumably His Majesty was the same.

The courtyard is not so humane to the enemy.

Then now that the time given by His Majesty is almost up, how to repay yourself must make a decision.

If you tell the truth and tell Your Majesty that Ying Ying is entangled with Wang Xi of the Third Courtyard, and she also has a husband and wife with the other party, I don't know if Your Majesty will be angry?

But...... This thing...... Although His Majesty didn't know the pseudonym Ying Ying at the time, he still nodded about the plan of the love Gu, presumably, he shouldn't ask for blame for this matter, right?

But it's hard to say about the leak......

When His Majesty faced the King of Chu Jiang, even if he only said the word "Jiang Dynasty", he didn't dare to explain too much, for fear that the Difu and the Inner Courtyard would be too smart and find some clues. And this time Ying Ying leaked out, he just listened to her speak for three or two minutes, and he felt suffocated.

Thankfully, she didn't have access to some of the core secrets, but what he told the inner courtyard was deadly enough.

Many things, in fact, can go straight to the essence through appearances.

Over the years, I have read a lot of Chinese books, all aspects, all walks of life.

By absorbing the wisdom of the Chinese ancestors, both he and Emperor Changduan had a deeper understanding of the opponents they were about to face.

In the past, the productive forces in China were also underdeveloped.

Although it was not difficult to bring back a book at that time, there were not many books to bring with me.

But since entering the modern era, China's social progress is simply like stepping thousands of miles.

Social stability will inevitably bring about the prosperity and development of academics.

As a result, the vast sea of books was placed in front of him and Emperor Changduan, making them feel that they were so lonely and unheard.

In just a few decades, they have not developed much, but their opponents seem to have suddenly developed for a thousand more years.

This is a huge change that successive emperors have not experienced at all.

Even the first emperor, no!

At that time, China had just been founded, and all kinds of waste were waiting to be rebuilt, although the progress was also very fast, but after all, it was not like now, day by day.

That's why they had to decide to act immediately......

If you don't do it, maybe one day, Chinese science will be able to discover their existence.

Even if you don't consider science and only look at metaphysics, isn't it also precarious?

The matter of the head of Qingcheng can be one, it can be two, and two can be three.

The last time I killed the head of Qingcheng, what about the next time?

It's hard to guarantee that there won't be a second Qingcheng head who will open his mind again and want to go there.

What if the head of the Taoist family is in the ancestral court of Taoism, and there is just no internal response?

What to do?

Open the gate and attack directly?

There is only so much to open the boundary gate, where can you do whatever you want?

Hey, Ying Ying has a problem for herself......

She thought she was just saying something trivial, but in the eyes of His Majesty, she definitely didn't see it that way.

Here's a very simple example.

Historically, spies have been hiding in other countries to gather intelligence. You don't have to do something exciting like visiting the palace at night and sneaking into the prime minister's mansion.

There are some things that can be expressed in everyday life.

For example, the spy found that in the past year, the price of gold began to gradually decrease, while the price of grain began to rise slowly. And the country seems to be in good weather, nothing big has happened. He can then infer that someone is secretly hoarding food with gold.

Of course, this is a bit sloppy, but the idea can be hazy.

In short, some things that seem to be just trivial things in daily life can actually hide the secrets of a country's functioning.

Thinking of this, Yang Luming sighed, but then remembered that this was in His Majesty's study, and he was a little forgetful.

"Yang Aiqing, are you a little embarrassed?" Emperor Changduan's eyes were like a torch, like a sharp knife, piercing Yang Luming's heart.

Yang Luming smiled bitterly, and then reported everything truthfully one by one, without the slightest concealment.

He knew that even if he didn't say it, as long as Emperor Changduan wanted to inquire, there was still a way.

Such as...... By Zijun......

"So, this time I owe Zijun a favor?"

As soon as Yang Luming thought of this, Emperor Changduan opened his mouth to say this.

He was a little confused, and said, "It's not enough to say that you owe affection, right?" After all, the life and death of a disciple is not just up to him......"

"Oh, that's true, but according to what you just said, he also calculated his strength, and he did it vigorously. It's just that...... In this way...... He put the problem ...... Throw it to me......" Emperor Changduan said.

As soon as Yang Luming heard this, he knew that the point was coming.

He quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, in the opinion of a micro-minister, it is not necessarily all bad. Perhaps, we can use Ying Ying to reverse Wang Xi. Judging from Wang Xi's current performance, once he encounters a dilemma, he will escape, and when there is no way to avoid it, he will choose the nearest one. ”

"Nearby?" Emperor Changduan repeated these words, frowning slightly.

After making a start, Yang Luming immediately followed, without being sloppy, he was very satisfied with this,

Yang Luming said: "Yes, Your Majesty." I don't know if Your Majesty still remembers the man's problem of the century that Weichen once told you? ”

Emperor Changduan thought for a moment and said, "Remember." Mother and wife fall into the water at the same time, who will be saved first? In fact, until now, I haven't understood why this issue has been raised to this height for Chinese men. ”

Yang Luming said: "Your Majesty, this is naturally not a problem in our dynasty, but in Huaxia, it is a big problem. Your Majesty just needs to remember that this is a dilemma. ”

"What does this have to do with Wang Xi?" Emperor Changduan knew that he must have something to say, so he asked.

Yang Luming immediately said: "This is not a problem for Wang Xi at all. Whoever is near, he saves. Whoever makes a big fuss, he saves whom. ”

Emperor Changduan thought for a moment and said, "This ...... Somewhat contradictory, right? ”

Yang Luming continued: "That's exactly what Weichen meant. For example, if he goes to save one of them first, he will change his mind if the one who is further away calls for help. So, this kind of person is actually quite wobbly. To say that he is loyal to the inner courtyard, Wei Chen will not doubt it in the slightest. But if Ying Ying is allowed to contact him, especially now, we have a great chance to extract more information from him. ”

"No...... Zijun has already appeared in front of Yingying, and once the two of them meet, Zijun will inevitably be exposed. Unless......" Emperor Changduan paused when he said this.

Yang Luming immediately said: "Your Majesty, everything Weichen thinks is for the sake of the society. The disciples did not dare to talk about their thoughts. At that time, as long as the information is obtained, Wang Xi's life and death will not have to be thought about. And this is also the same as what he had designed before, just let him die in the hands of Zhang Xiaoyi by the way. ”

Emperor Changduan said: "Yang Aiqing really has a lively brain, and he can immediately connect the two things together." So...... Is Yingying's matter confirmed? ”

Yang Luming said: "Your Majesty, there is no way for the Weichen Sect...... But...... Absolutely true...... The apprentice is pregnant...... Although it is weak, but with this level of diagnosis, Weichen still dares to pack a ticket. And this thing can be used to design Zhang Xiaoyi. ”

Emperor Changduan pondered for a moment and said, "Yes." ”

Yang Luming immediately received the order, and then said, "Your Majesty...... Wechen is incompetent...... I can't share your worries for Your Majesty......"

Emperor Changduan's face became more solemn at this time, and he said, "Yang Aiqing is really exquisite. ”

Yang Luming said: "Although the matter of the apprentice is important, what he leaked is far from the point where His Majesty is worried...... His Majesty summoned the ministers late at night, and I don't know ......"

In fact, he already had a guess in his heart, but he could only pretend not to know.

Speculating on the meaning of the mind has always been taboo.

"Let's not talk about that yet, I'll make sure of you one thing. According to what Yu'er said, the courtyard really thinks that we are people from another world? Emperor Changduan asked.

Yang Luming said: "Back to Your Majesty, it is true. This saves us a lot of trouble. The apprentice's statement coincides with the current scientific understanding of Huaxia. They have a theory called parallel worlds. Now that there is a confession from the apprentice, the courtyard will definitely find a way to ask for help from the scientific community. As long as their science is misguided, at least for a short time, the threat of science to us will be much smaller. After all, the theory of parallel worlds, on their side, has not been proven, but it is not light, and many people are willing to believe it. As for metaphysics...... It just depends on our luck......"

Emperor Changduan also sighed and said, "Luck...... This kind of thing is too ethereal. Taoism has been inherited for thousands of years, and the theory has almost come to an end, so naturally there will be more and more Taoists who have more thoughts and all kinds of wonderful ideas......"

Yang Luming was mistaken and said, "Then Your Majesty means that we need to do something to the Taoist next?" This...... This...... It's ......."

Emperor Changduan waved his hand and said, "Want to cover it? I naturally thought about it, just the last time Qingcheng was in charge, it is estimated that there were still some obscure clues. Besides, it is too unrealistic to do it to Taoism. Their believers are all over the world, and they have powerless hearts...... It is impossible to pull out one Taoist temple after another. As soon as we move the Taoist, the sight of the inner courtyard will immediately be cast over. Okay, I'm sure Yu'er once said so, that's it. Okay, get up and talk, and the next thing to discuss is the point. ”

Yang Luming got up, bent down respectfully, and stood in front of Emperor Changduan's desk.

"I've been thinking a lot about it in the past two days...... Felt...... Maybe a big mistake was made...... "Emperor Changduan looked a little tired.

Yang Luming was shocked, he rarely saw Emperor Changduan like this.

"Your Majesty Shengming, they are all ministers......

"It's not just me...... Emperor ...... Even Chun Jingye and Zhang Jingye...... They all made mistakes...... "Emperor Changduan."

Yang Luming's face changed drastically, and he didn't dare to answer.

As a minister, not daring to put his beak at will is one aspect. But more importantly, Emperor Changduan's words can only point to one thing!

That's Zijun!

"I asked you, two days ago, you went to pick up Yu'er, Zijun said that he had made arrangements. Soon after you returned, a large number of Yin soldiers reported to you, saying that they would accept your dispatch. And according to your previous plan, this time, it is to attack the three courtyards, right? "The long-end emperor.

Yang Luming replied: "Yes, Your Majesty! Because Weichen had already seen Zijun at that time and knew that he was also in the Third Courtyard, he felt that the opportunity was rare, and immediately began to arrange it. ”

"He asked you for hundreds of witch doctors, and all of them are gone?" Emperor Changduan asked.

Yang Luming said: "This ...... This...... Really...... However, that night, Weichen was not at ease...... So observe from a distance...... The Yin soldiers under the command of Lord Zijun fought bravely, and used the boundary gate many times to catch the three courtyards and even the underworld by surprise. According to rough estimates, at least more than 20,000 of the Yin soldiers of the underworld were killed. And the three courtyards, it can be said that after this battle, they have been seriously injured, and there are at most two or three hundred people left. ”

"I've seen all of you, and I've also observed the white mist, and it's receded dozens of feet. Fighting over there is such an advantage, whether it is the Yin soldiers of the underworld or the Yin soldiers of Zijun, as long as the soul is scattered, it is beneficial to us. ”

Yang Luming said: "That...... That's a good thing...... Lord Zijun did keep his promise. And there's been a lot of activity lately. The sixth courtyard, the ninth courtyard, and the third courtyard were lost one after another. In these battles, it was all Lord Zijun who contributed, and no soldiers of our dynasty participated. If Your Majesty is distressed by the hundreds of witch doctors this time......"

Emperor Changduan said: "I'm not so stingy. Indeed, this time, according to the agreement, Zijun created a large number of souls scattered. Not only did our white fog dissipate, but it is estimated that in the underworld, the black fog also receded a lot. On the other hand, it is estimated that the invasion of black fog will be quite powerful. ”

Yang Luming was even more puzzled.

Isn't that what everybody has been doing?

What's wrong?

Seeing him like that, Emperor Changduan reminded, "Do you remember last time?" Wang Xi opened a boundary gate in the underworld, and we gave away 8,000 souls to complete the matter. ”

Yang Luming immediately understood what Emperor Changduan meant, and said, "This ...... We wouldn't be that unlucky, would we? How long has it been? The underworld invited Wang Xi and them to the underworld to continue the experiment on the boundary gate? ”

"Generally speaking, no. I still know the academic style of the courtyard. As long as they are proven dead, they will not continue to spend manpower, material and financial resources. But this time it's different...... You watched that battle...... Wang Xi, but he exhausted his physical strength and opened hundreds of realm gates...... "Changduan Emperor Dao."

Yang Luming said: "Your Majesty is very worried, so Weichen has focused on that area, and set up countless traps and formations, as long as the boundary gate is opened again, they will have no return!" ”

Emperor Changduan said, "I'm not worried about this. Wouldn't it be strange that they would suddenly open the gates? ”

Seeing Yang Luming thinking there, Emperor Changduan didn't want to wait for him, and continued: "Think about the matter of the eight thousand souls I just said. ”

Yang Luming's face changed, and he said, "What does Your Majesty mean...... It's really possible for the underworld to ......"

Emperor Changduan shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. Haven't you seen it yet? This time, the message from Zijun was delivered. ”

He's going to start heading it up.

This is not in line with their low-key philosophy all along.

Yang Luming unconsciously began to pace back and forth, and said, "Your Majesty, but these few actions are all led by Zijun's Yin soldiers, and they will not attract the attention of the Yang World over there." ”

Emperor Changduan smiled bitterly and said, "Yang Aiqing, Yang Aiqing, you are smart, why are you confused for a while?" ”

Yang Luming was also helpless, and said: "Weichen is stupid ......"

Emperor Changduan said: "Although he did this, although it would not attract the attention of the yang world, it further exposed us...... Lu Yanjun had been back for two days, and as soon as he came back, he immediately went back to the underworld to recuperate. And in the past two days, you can see the news that there is a land house? The first two times they attacked the Ninth Courtyard and the Third Courtyard, but afterwards they were all in a hurry to report the results to me. This time, it stands to reason that such a big victory has not moved? I've already sent someone to see it, but the ghost door is closed tightly, and the door won't be opened......"

Yang Luming obviously didn't know about this, but he also felt that something was wrong, so he stopped and faced Emperor Changduan, waiting for his master to explain further.

"So, I felt uneasy in my heart, and I vaguely felt ...... Maybe Zijun's intention is not as simple as wanting to open the ghost door...... He said he would be the king of the whole world...... Have you ever wondered if this 'world' includes us as well? He weaves a huge lie, a pitch-black net, that takes us all ...... It's all shrouded in......"
