Fengxi Kingdom is not far from the Flying Feather Immortal Palace.

But...... This is for the monks.

The two places are separated by seven countries, such as the Treasure Elephant Country, the Lanyue Country, and the Streamer Country, and after arriving at the Treasure Elephant Country on the north side, they have to cross a vast water area of thousands of miles, which can reach the Lingnan Road of Fengxi Country.

For mortals, these journeys, even if they ride a horse for thousands of miles, take a lifetime of energy.

Xu Xing stopped and walked along the way, and realized the customs of various different countries.

Cultivation also needs to be relaxed.

Keeping it tight like a bowstring is not a good thing for spiritual practice.

About five days passed.

Xu Xing crossed Lingnan Road, Jiangnan Road, and Luonan Road, and came to Shenjing City in Fengxi Kingdom. He stood on the watchtower standing beside the blue and black city wall, stepping on one of its cornices under his feet, looking at the inner and outer cities.

One hundred and eight square cities, in good order.

The two cities in the east and west, the traffic is busy, the pedestrians are weaving, and the prosperous scene of flowers and brocade is a picture.

"There is a set of ram etiquette to govern the country."

Xu Xing secretly praised.

When he saw that the ram was his enemy, he was repeatedly deflated. But when he hadn't gone to Siming Mountain, Ram Yi was the mastermind of the monk, and he was basically invincible.

Heyang Mountain is the leader of the Eighteen Road Princes!

It can be said that the internal affairs of the Ram Yi are definitely among the first-class.

"Let's go to King Kun's Mansion first."

"The third brother Kun Tianwang has the most practical eyes, and he is also my sworn brother, and he attaches the most importance to brotherhood."

After getting off the watchtower, he casually applied a breathing technique on himself, and Xu Xing went straight to the Kunwang Mansion in Shengkangfang.

He didn't intend to go straight to the palace.

Twelve years away.

Although it is not to the vicissitudes of life, things are not people. But twelve years is enough to change many things. In particular, he claimed that he was ill and had not been able to meet hundreds of officials in front of the court.

Even though confidants such as Ram Yi and Chang Ji knew that Emperor Tiande was not seriously ill, he went to the Flying Feather Immortal Palace to ask for immortals. But he didn't show up for too long, who knows if there would be any officials or vassal kings in various places who had different ...... in such a long time.

"He is a prince ......"

"Why is it so deserted in front of the door?"

After a while, Xu Xing arrived at a high-gate mansion.

The mansion he gave to Chang Kun, the king of Kun Tian, was the palace of King Yong, the son of Emperor Chongming.

This palace covers an area of about 100 acres, the painted vermilion gate, the door is nailed with a bright copper beast head copper ring, and two majestic white jade lions sit on the door pillow. Through the tall blue bricks and tiles of the two people, you can see the various attics with high eaves in the palace, which shows the grandeur of the palace.

It's just that the front of this mansion is a lot deserted.

It doesn't matter if it's the front door, or the side door.

The main entrance was closed, and at the side door stood two burly blue-clothed men, guarding the door. On the side of the side door, near the tethered horse stone, there is little fresh earth, and there is a thin dust on the ground.

Take a peek at the whole leopard.

If the King of Heaven has many guests, it should be that there is no stone for tying horses, not even a single horse.

"Go in and have a look."

Xu Xing dodged, crossed the two courtyards, and entered the palace.

If you don't tell you, you don't agree with the courtesy.

But he is the founding emperor, and this little gift can't limit him.

In an instant.

Xu Xing found Kun Tianwang Chang Kun from an ice room in the back house.

Chang Kun was half-lying on an arhat bed, squinting and snoring. He was open-minded, and there were two concubines beside him who fanned him vigorously with a pu fan to blow the cool breeze. In the ice room, there are two large barrels of ice.

The slightest cool air was transmitted to Chang Kun under the fanning of the pu fan.

See here.

Xu Xing was not surprised.

At this time, Fengxi Kingdom was in the scorching heat, and it was common for dignitaries and nobles to take ice from the ice cellar to build an ice room to cool off. Chang Kun's behavior is not arrogant and lascivious.

"Third Brother ......"

"I haven't seen him for many years, the third brother has flesh in his hips, and he is much more comfortable than the fourth brother. It really made the fourth brother and I envious. ”

It didn't take long for Xu Xing to show his demeanor and look at Chang Kun, who had gray hair on his sideburns, with a smile on his face.

The two concubines who were shaking the pu fan for Chang Kun suddenly saw Xu Xing revealing his body, and mistook him for an assassin, so he almost tore his throat and called the guards outside to enter the escort. But when they heard Xu Xing's self-proclaim, they immediately forcibly held back the words they blurted out, so as not to rush the emperor.

King Kun's fourth brother, except for Emperor Tiande, there is no one else.

"The servants have seen the emperor......"

The two concubines knelt on the ground, their delicate bodies trembling slightly.

The person in front of them is the Emperor Tiande who can kill them, how dare they be disrespectful.

Such a sound instantly woke up Chang Kun, who was drunk, and he quickly got up from the Luohan bed. Immediately afterward, in his eyes, he broke into the figure of Xu Xing standing indoors with a calm face.

"Chen Changkun has seen Your Majesty."

Chang Kun was stunned for a few breaths, rubbed his eyes again, and after confirming that he didn't see dazzling, he immediately lifted the front of his robe and prepared to kneel to meet Xu Xing.

The righteousness of the monarch and the minister is above, and the brotherhood is below.

has been a minister for a long time, Chang Kun knows how to measure.

"Third brother, why be polite."

Xu Xing instantly came to Chang Kun's side, bent down slightly, and blocked Chang Kun's bowing movement with his arms.

Then, he shook his head and said, "Third brother, you and I are both brothers who worship the master, and the etiquette of a mere monarch and minister is nothing. Besides, I have now entered the path of immortals, and some mundane etiquette can be avoided. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Chang Kun didn't insist on bowing, but he didn't change his name, and still called Xu Xingkou "Your Majesty" instead of "Fourth Brother".

Some secular rites are exempt.

But if he really doesn't know how to measure, Xu Xing was fine at the beginning, but after a long time, he will definitely be dissatisfied.

Chang Kun is thick and fine, and he knows this very well.

……

……

The ice room was restored as a living room.

The maidservant pours spiritual tea.

The aroma fills the room and is delightful.

Xu Xing took a seat and sat in the main seat. Chang Kun accompanied him in the second place. The two of them each took a sip of the tea soaked in the Phantom Mist Spirit Tea. Only then did Xu Xing point out the purpose of his visit to King Kun's Mansion this time.

Find out about the situation in the current imperial court.

"Korea-China ......"

Chang Kun touched his head.

Although he was moved, the fourth brother did not treat him as an outsider.

But some things still have to be said truthfully, and he sneered and said: "Your Majesty, you know me, it's okay to talk about war, but I don't care much about these things in the court, and I can't manage them well." Therefore, as early as the second year of your departure, Your Majesty, I simply closed the gate of the palace to avoid visitors......"

He didn't lie about it, but there were still some things he didn't say.

In fact, the reason why he closed the palace and did not see any outsiders. In addition to the fact that he is not greedy for power, the more reason is that the foreign surname of the vassal king attracts attention......

When Tiande was in the fourth year, someone impeached him Kun Tianwang for accepting bribes privately and enriching his pockets. Chang Kun was furious at first, he hated corrupt officials the most in his life, how could he be corrupt himself, coupled with Xu Xing's endless rewards for their righteous brothers, he was not short of money, how could he be corrupt and take bribes.

After-

was impeached by hundreds of officials in the court, and he realized afterwards that it was his foreign surname that caused the trouble.

So Chang Kun rushed to the Ram Yi Mansion overnight and asked Ram Yi what he should do next. Ram Yi gave him this suggestion and asked him to delegate power and become a rich and noble prince.

"What about now...... Who is in power in the DPRK and China......"

"Third brother, you should know about this."

Xu Xing's words were slightly colder.

He can see that Chang Kun is afraid of offending people, so he is playing tricks.

But after thinking about it for a while, he was relieved.

He can walk away, but Chang Kun still has to find a career for himself and a future for his descendants. Now, it is not terrible to offend him, the Taizu, because he is not in power, and he will not be killed because of this matter, and he will cut off his previous kindness.

But if Chang Kun offends the forces of the DPRK, then himself, as well as his descendants, will have an unpredictable future.

"Yes...... The queen and the first assistant Ram Yi are in power together. ”

Chang Kun hesitated for a moment and said.

I can't hide this from Xu Xing. As long as Xu Xing inquires a little in Shenjing, he can know who is in power in Shenjing now. All officials know it, and so do the people in the market.

If he really didn't know what to do, then he really offended Xu Xing completely.

It's just that after finishing speaking, Chang Kun added, "Your Majesty, you also know that you call yourself sick and sick, and you don't see hundreds of officials, even though we ministers know that you are going to seek immortals." But the middle-level and low-level officials, as well as the people in the world, don't know, and the queen is helpless......"

"The crown prince is young, if the queen doesn't interfere in politics."

"The power of heaven is hard to exist!"

He said something from the bottom of his heart.

"The matter...... I understand. ”

After a moment of silence, Xu Xing nodded, his expression calm.

Zhao Yunniang's harem intervened in the government and took power, in fact, it was his deliberate arrangement when he left. If he really intends to limit the power of the harem, with his identity as the founding ancestor, he can be determined in a word.

Just leave a decree.

Even if Zhao Yunniang has the means, she can't turn the sky upside down.

"The official who impeached the third brother ......"

"Is it the queen's trick?"

Xu Xing glanced at Chang Kun and smiled.

Among the two people who have gained power in the court, they are the queen Zhao Yunniang and the first assistant of the cabinet, Ram Yi. The former is the empress, the mother of the world, nominally in the absence of the emperor, has the power to interfere in politics, the latter cabinet chief, has the natural political power to lead hundreds of officials, .......

And the king of Kun Tianwang, Chang Kun, and other foreign surname vassal kings fell.

Obviously, it was a political means by Ram Yi and Zhao Yunniang to return power to the center. After all, the turmoil of the external vassal kings affected the government and politics.

This kind of thing is the trend of the times.

Anyone who sits in the seat of Ram Yi and Zhao Yunniang will do so.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, the heroes were divided, so the power of the center had to be decentralized. However, the later rulers obviously did not have the prestige of the founding ancestor, so the center would inevitably continue to accumulate power and fight against the "vassal kings" and "meritorious heroes" who cut the flesh, so as to achieve the effect of stabilizing the power of the center.

"Son of a bitch......"

"It turned out to be the idea of the ram instrument."

"I've been blaming the queen and going to him for help......"

Hearing this, Kun Tianwang Chang Kun instantly had anger on his face, and he scolded, "From the time I started the army, I knew that this kid Ram Yi had bad water in his stomach, and I thought I had a comradeship with him, but I didn't expect that he calculated it on me." ”

He thought of the first layer.

thought that the queen Zhao Yunniang was in order to accumulate power and consolidate the power of the heavenly family, so as not to lose the power of the heavenly family, so she was willing to be a rich and virtuous king.

But he never thought that there would be a calculation of the ram in this.

"Where's the big brother?"

"How is he ......?"

"Are you willing to be a rich and virtuous king?"

Xu Xing asked again.

When he was in Kansai Province, in order to build his reputation, he left a thousand silent rides for Yao Dang, the king of mourning.

Later, he dominated the world, and his position was taken away from Yao Dang, so Yao Dang had the most real seals, and it can be said that Yao Dang was the most powerful vassal king with a foreign surname, with at least more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command.

Of course, he also has precautions against Yao Dang.

When the Xu clan was sealed, he deliberately put the fief of the Xu clan and Yao Dang's together to contain each other.

"Big brother's words ......"

Chang Kun let out a long sigh, "The eldest brother passed away two years ago. A guard from the palace said that before the eldest brother left, he had seen the second brother......"

Among the three heavenly kings of Siming Mountain, the relationship between the mourning king and the Wei king is the best.

He is not as good as that.

"The Heavenly King?"

Xu Xing frowned.

He intuitively mourned the matter of the Heavenly King Yao, which was a little strange.

In the second fate deduction, he was beheaded by Ye Jiming with a sword, and then turned into an underground lord remnant soul immortal. It was the mighty king who used means to destroy his remnant soul.

Then it is obvious that King Weitian, who divided his troops and left in Daoliang Mountain, will definitely have a chance afterwards.

Maybe King Wei Tianwang is also a monk now.

This is also something that cannot be said.

"Although I usurped Yao Dang's power, I didn't feel sorry for Yao Dang after that. King Wei Tian will not hate me. Besides, no matter how powerful the King of Wei Tian is, is it as strong as my chance? ”

Xu Xing restrained his mind and put aside the matter of King Wei for the time being.

The fairy road is cruel.

There are not many people who can walk to the back.

If King Wei really hated him, he would have taken revenge on Zhao Yunniang and Xu Zhang a long time ago. In addition, he looked at the Heavenly King, and he didn't think that this person was a person with a small amount of energy.

Then.

Chang Kun followed Xu Xing's instructions, and then told the "Xu family" and the courtiers what had happened in the past twelve years.

It's just that he still has reservations, and mentions it slightly, but doesn't go into details.

"Can the third brother have this enlightenment......"

"Among the ministers, there are no more than the number of palms that can win the third brother."

After listening, Xu Xing was not angry with Chang Kun's behavior, but praised him.

Know the pros and cons, know the advance and retreat.

You can do that.

It is enough to be called a wise man.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment."

Chang Kun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he pretended to be stupid, first scratched his head, and then bowed to Xu Xing.

……

……

Walk out of King Kun's mansion.

There was a hint of melancholy on Xu Xing's face.

Although he praised Chang Kun's decentness, Chang Kun's decentness is not a manifestation of his separation. After a few years of the uprising, he and Chang Kun intersected, first with false affection, and then after four years of getting along, they were more sincere, but they never thought that twelve years later, everything was as before.

"It is said that the Heavenly King of Punishment flicked his sleeves, and two yellow snakes came out of his cuffs."

"On that day, the gods were majestic, and the immortals stood in the empty ......"

"The Xingtian King cut off the arm of the immortal, laughed a few times, grabbed the arm of the immortal, and bit the ...... with his mouth, the immortal qi escaped thousands of wisps, and a little blood fell under the southern city, so that the dead cypress tree would spring again."

The immortal was furious and scolded: "Even ordinary people dare to rebel against the immortals?"

At this time, the Heavenly King bent his bow and arrows again, and an arrow shot into the eyes of the immortals. The immortal was afraid that his eyes would be taken away by the Heavenly King again, so he said, 'The essence and blood of your parents should not be discarded', and swallowed their own eyes. ”

"And this time the battle of killing immortals ......"

"It also made the Heavenly King of Punishment suffer from a curse, and his prime age is unknown, so he can only recuperate in the palace."

"For the sake of the well-being of all the people, the Heavenly King of Punishment is willing to be punished by heaven alone......"

"I, the people, want to accept the love of the Heavenly King."

Not long after leaving Shengkang Fang, Xu Xing met a storyteller wearing a coat and holding a white paper folding fan at the entrance of the fang, talking under the big locust tree, surrounded by a group of people listening to books.

The book is nothing else.

It was he who fought with Ye Jiming outside Shenjing in the first year of Tiande.

It's just that the three of them became tigers, and the more this story is told, the more outrageous it becomes.

"It doesn't have to be outrageous......"

"It is also possible that the imperial court deliberately let the storyteller speak like this, so as to establish my prestige, and promote the orthodox ...... of the imperial court, after all, the immortals have been beheaded, so difficult, after the people in the world listen to it, who dares to rebel."

Xu Xing shook his head and said secretly.

In order to promote the righteousness of Taizu's victory, later generations arranged the legend of Taizu, which was not polite at all. What is born with a strange fragrance full of rooms, the mother's dream has a dragon into the body, the red emperor beheads the white emperor, and there are three dragons in the chest...... Wait, it's all about what is written and what is written. But the foolish people still eat this set.

In comparison, his killing of immortals is quite normal.

"Wait......"

"This storyteller ......"

"Master Su?"

Just as Xu Xing was about to leave, he subconsciously glanced back at Mr. Storyteller.

It didn't matter before this sweep, but after the sweep, I was suddenly surprised.

At this time, although Master Su shaved off his beard, his face was a little old.

But Xu Xing and Master Su had been in prison for a long time, and he had great sense at this time, so after just one glance, he saw that this storyteller was Su Che, a scholar of Su who was in the literary circle of Fengxi Kingdom back then.

"Emperor Tiande ......"

"Oh, no, ......, Lord Xu......"

Bachelor Su, who had just drunk tea to moisten his throat, also noticed Xu Xing, and he almost couldn't hold back, letting the tea in his mouth squirt out of his throat.

However, he was also smacked a few times by the tea.

So he hurriedly put down the teacup, wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and got up to salute Xu Xing.

This is no longer the case.

Xu Xing is already the emperor.

However, Mr. Su, who was a former official, also knew that it was not appropriate to expose Xu Xing's identity at this time, so when he had not yet said the word "Emperor Tiande", he hurriedly changed his name to Xu Xing as "Lord Xu".

"Roadside teahouse, let's talk."

Xu Xing became interested.

He didn't expect that the storyteller who arranged him on the side of the road was actually Mr. Su, who had a cellmate relationship with him.

"Please."

Mr. Su put the reward money in the large porcelain bowl into his pocket, then put the white paper fan on his waist, and followed Xu Xing into the teahouse on the side of the road, called a seat, and a pot of high-quality tea.

……

A few cups of tea poured into the belly.

When Mr. Su saw the old man, he also opened his heart, "I am no longer an official." In the first year of Tiande, you took the world and invited me to become an official in the court, I deliberately avoided the Qin Cha sent by you, hid outside the house, waited for three days and three nights, and waited until the Qin Cha left, and then I returned home. ”

"Later, I came to Shenjing, and when I saw that storytelling was interesting, I started talking about books."

"It's not much fun to be an official."

"The big is hidden in the city, and the small is hidden in the wild."

He smiled heartily, and his smile was mixed with bitterness.

After several successive officialdom frustrations, he also understood that he was not the material to be an official.

When he entered the court, he could only write poems and lyrics for the new emperor.

Instead of being a slaughterer, for the country and the people.

He understands that his service to the country and the people is to harm the people of Limin, Kuang Fu Sheji, he really has no ability.

When Emperor Chongming was in the court, he could still scold the faint monarch in power, and his ambitions were difficult to stretch.

But Xu Xing hanged the people and set up a new dynasty after the ......, and Xu Xing, who was familiar with him, sent him an official, and he was also given a clear and idle position.

He immediately knew his pounds.

Since then, there has been no idea of becoming an official.

"Storytelling......

Xu Xing saw that the tea was exhausted, he took out the Phantom Mist Spirit Tea from the bag, twisted a few tea leaves and threw them in, and then cast another spell to attract living water and began to cook tea quietly.

While using spells to maintain the heat of cooking tea, he persuaded: "Storytelling, most of the scribes are unbearable, the right way is poetry, storytelling is difficult to get into the elegant hall, Master Su, why are you bothering?" ”

Storytelling is a ninth-rate job.

Not to mention Bachelor Su, the former Hanlin Bachelor, who is generally a scholar with no fame, is unwilling to be willing to be lowly, and goes to the street to tell stories, at most to sell words.

No matter how self-defeating you are, you can't do this.

"Lord Xu......"

"What about poetry? What about storytelling? ”

Mr. Su looked at the teapot suspended on the table, the tea leaves that Xu Xing twisted just now, if he guessed correctly, it should be the immortal tea drunk by the immortals. He has nothing to do in his life, so he has some appetites.

He wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said disdainfully: "It's all a job to show off words, what is the difference between high and low." ”

"My surname is Su, and I don't write poetry anymore!"

He snorted.

……

……

Don't write poetry anymore?

Xu Xing looked at Master Su silently.

He didn't know if what Master Su said was angry or the truth. But he thought about it, the reason why Master Su didn't write poems was probably inseparable from the poem that Princess Anren begged for.

The style of the literati seems to be invisible, but sometimes it can be touched.

Emperor Chongming lost the country because of his mediocrity.

But this is also closely related to Emperor Chongming's refusal to give them a decent look when he disposed of his ministers.

Treat your courtiers as your own private slaves!

"Lord Xu......"

"Are you really sick in the palace to recuperate? Still is...... Went to seek the Immortal Dao? ”

After being silent for a while, Mr. Su took the initiative to change the topic.

I asked about one of the things he cared about most.

In his opinion, Xu Xing is not a faint monarch. Xu Xing, who was born as an official, not only understands the way of survival in officialdom, but also understands the truth that the country cannot be without a king for a day.

It will not be easy to resign.

Especially when the country has just been founded.

Now that he saw this magic technique that Xu Xing casually performed, he probably had some guesses about what Xu Xing had done in the past twelve years. But he wasn't sure, so he wanted to ask Xu Xing for an answer.

"Seeking Immortals ......"

Xu Xing was calm, glanced at Master Su, and replied.

Although the Flying Feather Immortal Palace allows the immortals not to interfere with each other, this precept is not very strict. If it weren't for the fact that he had Wang Ti and Ming Wang Ti by his side at that time, he would have been beheaded by Ye Jiming with a sword, and he would not have had the opportunity to attack Shenjing and replace the Song family.

Therefore, revealing one or two is not a violation of the precepts of the sect.
