Zhongzhou, Chang'an, Imperial Palace

This morning's morning is a little later than in the past, for the preparation and countermeasures of this first-year catastrophe, the following ministers give endless methods, Li Sheng sat on the dragon chair and listened reluctantly, he was really too lazy to listen to these, a group of civil officials who don't know about cultivation, can govern the country, but the first year of the catastrophe does not need to be governed, it will be bloody.

So far, there is only one way to break through the catastrophe of the first year, and that is to kill.

The human emperor Li Sheng, who was scratching his temples with his fingers, although he didn't want to listen anymore in his heart, his duty as an emperor told him that he still had to continue listening.

As soon as the officials of the Ministry of Rites finished speaking, Li Sheng hurriedly spoke: "I understand what Zhongqing means, I have roughly summarized the method you have given so far, that is, Wenzhi, I hope that you can survive the disaster without bloodshed." ”

Li Sheng stood up, slowly walked down the stairs, and said: "You should know what this catastrophe belongs to the world or the imperial court, it is a bureau, the person who set up the bureau is the sky, and the people in the bureau are mortals such as me, the demon clan is attacking, there is only one word we need to do, that is, kill, engrave with force, and stop killing with killing." ”

The high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Rites standing on the side of the civil officials took over, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister ......"

Li Sheng interrupted him with a wave of his hand and said, "Lord Qian, do you want to say that you can reconcile with the demon clan and return the world to peace and prosperity, it seems that Lord Qian is really a good person." ”

Li Sheng walked up to Lord Qian, patted the latter on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Since Lord Qian thinks that the demon clan is the kind person, I have a way." ”

Li Sheng turned around and walked towards the dragon chair, and said as he walked: "I heard that Lord Qian has an only son, who is now serving in the Ministry of War, and will pass on my message in a while, asking him to go to the Great Wall of the Dragon in ten days to resist those Nanzhou demon clans who Lord Qian thinks are kind." ”

Lord Qian was terrified, swallowed all the words he was going to say back into his stomach, and fell to the ground, "The minister is frightened, and I ask Your Majesty to atone for your sins." ”

Li Sheng didn't bother to pay attention to him, stood in front of the dragon chair, and said, "If there is nothing to do, just retreat." ”

With the experience of Lord Qian of the Ministry of Rites, others dare not say anything.

——————

Li Sheng, who returned to the dormitory, felt that he had nothing to do, so he followed the palace path to the imperial garden, which was surrounded by a high city wall, but standing on the city wall could overlook the entire Chang'an City.

Li Sheng stepped lightly, shrunk the mountains and rivers to the top of the city wall, and looked at the entire Chang'an City.

This situation is a little boring to enjoy by yourself.

Li Sheng turned his head to Shang Jiuxi, the chief eunuch waiting below, and said, "Pass on my message, let Su Qian come here to see me now." ”

Shang Jiuxi, the chief manager of Ouchi, retreated in response.

Li Sheng completely dispersed the calmness and majesty of the previous court, and the whole person completely relaxed, sitting on the top of the city wall, supporting the ground with both hands, and dangling on the edge of the city wall with two legs.

Usually Li Sheng himself will occasionally come here to relax, because only here will there be no serious and class system in the palace on weekdays, Li Sheng has no friends since he was a child, the Confucian Temple sage Zhang Xianjun is one, that is the early years when he was still a prince traveled to the Great Wall, on the Great Wall met Zhang Xianjun, who is not yet a saint, Pang Beidou is still a friend in Li Sheng's eyes, but it is not a friend, because as long as the two meet, they will quarrel for no reason, otherwise he would not have written to the Temple of Literature last time to sue Pang Beidou, which made him suffer a lot。

There are many people in the monk world who know each other, and the ones who can really be regarded as friends are Zhang Xianjun and Pang Beidou.

And in the world, his friend is only Su Qian, Su Qian is also a cultivator, but he is even more, how to say it, in Li Sheng's opinion, he is very gentle, no matter what he says and does, he is soft-spoken, but it makes people hear it clearly.

When Li Sheng was thinking about it, Shang Jiuxi, the head of the inner house, led a young man dressed as a scholar over.

When he arrived outside the Imperial Garden, Shang Jiuxi stopped and said to the scholar behind him: "Master Su, we won't go in, Your Majesty is still waiting for you inside." ”

The scholar folded the fan in his hand against his lips and bowed his head slightly, "I'm tired." ”

After Shang Jiuxi left, Su Qian stepped on the jade floor and walked lightly to the city wall.

"Su Qian, the dean of the academy, sees Your Majesty. The folding fan scholar clasped his fists and saluted.

Li Sheng glanced over and said, "There is no one here, don't come here, come up and talk." ”

Su Qian smiled slightly, and the next moment his figure disappeared in place, and he came to stand beside Li Sheng.

Li Sheng said, "Sit down." ”

Su Qian said: "Your Majesty sits, the minister doesn't dare to sit, the minister is not tired, the minister still stands." ”

Coming to this set again, Li Sheng knew that Su Qian was good everywhere, but this scholar knew the way of monarchs and ministers, but he was deeply inquisitive.

Li Sheng said: "Su Qian, the president of Tianxia Academy, listens to the order. ”

Su Qian clenched his fists, "The minister is here." ”

Li Sheng said, "Sit down." ”

Su Qian said: "...... Obey the order. ”

Li Sheng understands Su Qian, because when he was a child, he was still the prince, so Su Qian was the prince's companion, playing with him, reading with him, and even resting on weekdays was in the dormitory next to him.

It can be said that they are inseparable, even the extremely dangerous Great Wall of the Dragon, he has accompanied him, at that time, Su Qian did not know how to practice, just a weak boy who accompanied him.

It's just that the position is different now, many years have passed, one has grown into a human emperor with power over the world, and the other is the president of the Tianxia Academy who is above ten thousand people under one person, and Su Qian takes the difference between monarchs and ministers very seriously.

Li Sheng said: "Don't care about those red tape here as you do in other places, just relax a little, just like when you read books as a child." ”

Seeing that Su Qian was about to say what he had just said, Li Sheng said, "This is an order. ”

Su Qian could only smile bitterly and shake his head.

The two sat side by side on the roof of the city wall, overlooking the entire Chang'an City, and the scene in their eyes was prosperous.

Li Sheng said, "Su Qian, what do you think of the scenery here?"

Su Qian said: "Back to Your Majesty, it's beautiful. ”

Li Sheng asked rhetorically, "Where is the beauty?"

Su Qian said: "Back to Your Majesty, the beauty that the minister said has nothing to do with the weather and scenery, the beauty that the minister thinks is the beauty of the streets of Chang'an City, the beauty of children playing, the beauty of the people living and working in peace and contentment, and the beauty of peace in the world." ”

Li Sheng smiled: "If you want to speak, you still have to be Su Qian." ”

Su Qian said: "Your Majesty Xie appreciates. ”

Li Sheng immediately said: "Eh, didn't you say it just now, don't engage in all this red tape, why don't you listen to it." ”

Su Qian smiled and gestured.

Li Sheng said: "This world is indeed very peaceful, but it won't be long before Chang'an City will fall into a panic again." ”

Su Qian frowned slightly, he knew what the Emperor Li Sheng said that could make Chang'an fall into panic in the future, it was the calamity of the first year.

Su Qian felt the subtle flow of the formation talisman under Chang'an that he couldn't understand for a while, and said: "Your Majesty is too worried, there is a saint to make a move, why is Your Majesty worried about the catastrophe and not breaking, the world is not always peaceful?"

Li Sheng said: "How do you say it?"

Su Qian said: "Your Majesty is clumsy, although the minister's cultivation is not refined, but if I am not mistaken, this formation under Chang'an should be the first of the four major Taoist formations, the four-pole Tongtian array, can come up with this kind of formation to help Your Majesty at this time, who else can it be." ”

Li Sheng laughed, "If you don't say that a few of us in the Great Wall at that time were clever and smart." ”

Su Qian said: "Isn't Kechen also the worst mixed. ”

Also, at that time, in the Great Wall, Li Sheng, Su Qian, Zhang Xianjun, and Pang Beidou can be said to be in the Great Wall.

To say now, one has become the supreme person in the mortal world, the other has become the saint of the Confucian Temple, and the other is also the chief disciple of the mysterious and unpredictable old man, the Tianji Hexagram Immortal, and Su Qian, but he is also mixed well, in this mortal world, he is also above ten thousand people under one person, but it is just slightly worse than the other three.

Li Sheng shook his head helplessly, and quipped: "Why, Su Qian, are you dissatisfied with the seat I gave you." ”

Su Qian said with a smile: "Your Majesty's gift to the minister is really good, and the minister is enjoying it." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere at this moment did not have the sense of restraint of the talented monarch and minister.

Li Sheng said: "Although this four-pole heavenly array can be of great help, this formation requires four great cultivators to be stationed in the four-pole position, and it is difficult to find such cultivators in the world. ”

Su Qian said: "What kind of realm does Your Majesty need, if the minister can achieve it, he will definitely go to the soup and go to the fire, at any cost." ”

Li Sheng exhaled and said, "Twelve realms." ”

Su Qian was slightly stunned, this, this realm requirements are a bit tricky, in the entire Chang'an City, the great cultivators of the twelve realms have no one else except for himself and His Majesty the Emperor in front of him.

But Li Sheng wants to stand on top of the formation and take care of the entire battlefield, and he can only garrison one of the four poles, and where can the other three go to find it.

Su Qian said, "Your Majesty, this time the tribulation is so strong, and it is necessary for the Great Cultivators of the Twelve Realms to be stationed in the formation?"

Li Sheng nodded with a heavy face, "This catastrophe is very special compared to the human world, survive it, the world is peaceful, it can't be over, and the world is once again plunged into the bloody era of a thousand years ago." ”

Su Qian said: "Will the two temples interfere?"

Li Sheng said: "This formation was given to me by Xianjun secretly, do you think the two temples will make a move." ”

"This catastrophe is destined in the dark, the sky is the leader, how to break the situation, it depends on ourselves. ”

Even the saints of the two temples can't violate the mandate of heaven.

Su Qian said: "The saint can't interfere, and the people below can't help?"

Li Sheng said: "It's also strange to say that the catastrophe in the first year and the major event that will happen in the new year collide. ”

Su Qian was puzzled.

Li Sheng stood up, looked at the noisy and prosperous Chang'an City below, and said, "Although the sage can't interfere, the battle of the Great Wall before the end of the year, maybe the two temples are relieving the pressure for us." ”
