Chapter 39: Star Soul

"Sure enough, I'm still too young. The emperor did not have the anger of that day, but said calmly.

An old-looking man next to him said to the prince: "The prince is still too young as the emperor said, do you know why the Yunze Council established the position of high priest? ”

"Please also ask Elder Qi for advice. "The prince doesn't have a little arrogance at this time, why?

Strength is respected.

In Yunze, if the identity of the emperor and the high priest is the most noble, then the next one is the prince and the young envoy, but in fact, many ordinary officials and ordinary people don't know, and there are still many masters who have no living world, they are unknown, even if there is an earth-shattering war anywhere, it will be covered up by various reasons in the end.

They don't see the head of the dragon, and there is not even a trace of their legend on the rivers and lakes.

But these people are strong.

The position next to them in the emperor is more important than the crown prince, and the royal family now has several such people, and this Qi Lao is one of them.

"As far as the old man knew, the origin of the high priest was actually forced by themselves. "Qi Lao doesn't have any arrogance at the moment, and he doesn't have anything to hide.

"Today's high priest is the sixth, the first five high priests are also very famous, maybe His Royal Highness the crown prince is young, and he doesn't know too much about these secrets, but the royal library also has it, and you can go to see it when you have nothing to do, although it can't help much, but you can increase your knowledge, today I will tell you what you want to know first, as for many subtleties, it's too late to talk about it. ”

The prince nodded.

He knew that he didn't mean to despise himself when he said this, but it was the case He usually thinks more about strengthening himself, but his talent is limited, even if he follows these people who have mixed the path of cultivating immortals to learn, the achievements he can achieve in the end are very limited.

Even in terms of cultivation, he couldn't even compare to his third brother, Bai Jingyan, which was why Bai Jingyan dared to covet the position of the future lord of Yunze.

"When the first high priest came to Yunze, he was not a high priest, he was a traitor, and he came to steal my Yunze national fortune. ”

"What?" the prince yelled in shock.

He had no idea that the High Priest's predecessor was actually a traitor.

"Shocked, in fact, you are right not to believe many things, who can believe that the high priest who everyone admires today was actually a thief in the first place. ”

"Lao Qi, don't make such a fuss. Another old man next to him exited: "Cultivation was originally to seize the heavens and the earth, and the fortune of the country was prosperous back then, and the country's luck was extremely strong, which was of great benefit to the cultivator, and it was understandable that he wanted to come and snatch it, but at that time, his strength was not high, and he couldn't forcibly snatch it, so he planned to steal it little by little, which is also understandable." ”

Despite this, this is also the prince's face has not improved.

Originally, his impression of the high priest was not very good, but after today's words, I am afraid that this bad attitude will drop another level.

"And after that?" the prince continued.

After that, Yun Ze and him started a big battle, and both sides couldn't help each other, and the final result of the negotiation was that Yun Ze's luck shared a little bit with him, and he protected Yun Ze. ”

"After that, the high priest left, and the few apprentices he accepted slowly grew into the climate, and passed down from generation to generation to the present ......"

The prince was uneasy, he didn't expect Yun Ze to have such a story at all.

He also thought that the high priest and his father complemented each other, and each high priest would follow a generation of emperors, and they were just like those ministers who had the merit of following the dragon, but the high priest's strength and status were high.

Unexpectedly, both sides couldn't take each other, so they were forced to compromise, and after fighting for so many generations, there was no absolute crushing.

Seeing that his face was extremely ugly, the emperor comforted: "But you don't have to worry too much, this high priest seems to be much worse than before." ”

"What do you mean?" asked the prince.

The emperor mocked: "In fact, hundreds of years ago, according to the records, I also had such a drought in Yunze, but the high priest at that time tried to get a way to get a water source, although it was not rain, but at that time it did save many people in Yunze." ”

"How?"

"Water comes out of thin air. The emperor replied.

The other two old men looked a little calm.

Qi Lao explained: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know that in addition to internal strength and body refining, there are also cultivators, that is, the cultivators you are talking about, those cultivators, although they can't turn the clouds and rain like that girl said, but their abilities are not something that ordinary people can imagine, for example, people with water spells can condense water from the surrounding air. ”

"It's just not too much, it also depends on the level of strength. ”

"I see. The prince's eyes lit up: "This high priest doesn't even have the qualifications to condense water?"

"That's right. Qi Laodu smiled and nodded: "Yun Ze needs the assistance of the high priest, this is true, but now the high priest can't solve it, and Yun Ze's national fortune is constantly depleted, so this high priest is like raising it for nothing, and it is completely different from the previous situation of complementing each other." ”

"Hmm. "The emperor is also extremely dissatisfied with the high priest, and these few times let the high priest preside over the sacrifice to the rain god to ask for rain, it may not be tempting.

Prince: "Then what should we do now? Directly take the soldiers and horses over and destroy the high priest's mansion?"

"Idiot. The emperor snorted coldly: "How can my royal family have a fool like you, you can't compare to your third brother in terms of force, you can't compare to your seventh brother in terms of brains, if you weren't born to the queen and the eldest son, do you think you can do it in your turn to be the crown prince?"

"Okay, then you go underground and ask my mother why she gave birth to me. After the prince finished speaking, he said that he left in anger.

The father and son parted unhappily.

Yunze's queen collapsed and died when she gave birth to the prince, which is also the reason why the prince is very ordinary in all aspects, but the emperor favors him the most.

It was his wife, the son of the queen of the middle palace, and he lost his mother at a young age, which were all reasons for him to favor him.

The emperor wanted to make up for it as best he could, but ......

"Alas. The emperor sighed.

"The emperor doesn't have to worry, what the prince said is also a way out, it's just that he is too inconsiderate, he wants to fight, but he must be fully prepared, not with someone to force his way in, I and others came to a small country like Yunze, to be honest, that is, to come to the elderly, it is natural to beat the water dogs, but if we fight with our lives, it is not worth it." Qi Lao said it very clearly.

They come to this kind of place to retire and enjoy happiness, because they can't break through the current realm, and they can only turn into loess in the end.

In their limited lives, they chose to give up the path of cultivation and come here to retire.

It's not to help the people here.

Of course, it's okay to help out if you don't have to worry about your life, after all, there is no free lunch left.
