() "Please help me. ”

"Why should I help Your Highness?"

"Because I'm a Tang person. ”

"The six princes are also Tang people. ”

"But his mother is not a Tang person. ”

"I'm open-minded and tolerant, and I never care about these things. ”

"Trust me. ”

"Why should I trust Your Highness?"

"Because you don't believe in the Queen...... Li Yu looked at the familiar handwriting on the edict, and suddenly felt very sad.

It was his father's handwriting, just like the rumors, no matter how much he loved calligraphy and practiced calligraphy diligently, he couldn't practice his own characters better.

However, from the meticulous handwriting, it can be seen that when the father wrote these words, he was in a very calm and determined mood, without any hesitation and struggle.

Li Yu's hand holding the edict trembled slightly, her fingers were forceful, as if she was about to sink into the cloth of Huang Sè, and the tremor spread from her small arm to her shoulder, and her whole body trembled.

She felt extreme disappointment and sadness, and then began to be angry, not only because of what was written on the edict, but also because of the steady handwriting of her father.

"Why is this happening?"

She whispered.

Then she repeated it again, her voice full of grievances and unwillingness.

"Why is this happening?"

Her voice was louder than before, but it still couldn't reach out of the Dao Hall, couldn't penetrate the night rain outside the hall, and was heard, even louder than the sound of her teeth clattering.

Li Qingshan said: "This was written before His Majesty's Imperial Expedition, since he left an edict. It shows that he is also vaguely aware of the direction of heaven's will, but you should also see that he has made up his mind a long time ago. ”

Li Yu was silent for a long time, suddenly raised his head, wiped away the tears on his face with his sleeve, looked at Li Qingshan on the sickbed, and said in a trembling voice: "Can the edict be changed?"

Li Qingshan's eyelids drooped slightly. "Generally, not." ”

Li Yu's eyes lit up and asked, "What's unusual?"

Li Qingshan glanced at her and said, "When the country is about to be restless." ”

Li Yu asked, "Who can change it?"

Li Qingshan said: "I can." ”

The edict of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, it cannot be forged lightly, with imperial seals and complex emblems on it. The most important thing is that there is a unique imprint of heaven and earth on the edict.

Part of that imprint came from the blood of the royal family, and part of it came from the witnesses of the edict.

Before His Majesty left Chang'an, when he wrote the edict in the South Gate Temple, he witnessed his most trusted national teacher Li Qingshan and his imperial brother Master Huang Yang.

And the imperial seal was in the palace at this time, on Li Yu's couch who was ordered to supervise the country.

Li Yu looked at Li Qingshan's old and thin cheeks, and asked in a slightly trembling voice, "What do you want?"

Li Qingshan looked at the beautiful woman in front of her with a slightly wet dress, as if she saw the little girl who followed her mother many years ago and was coquettish, with a nostalgic smile on her face.

Then he said calmly: "I want the Tang Dynasty for thousands of generations." I want the south gate of Haotian Dao to be carried forward, and I want the Tang people to live a worry-free life, Your Highness, can you promise me...... Li Yu left the South Gate Temple.

It is believed that before long, that shocking news will pass through the torrential rain. Entering the mansions of the princes and ministers in Chang'an City, Ming rì is not the period of the Great Dynasty Meeting, but there will inevitably be a Great Dynasty Meeting.

The south gate in the rain was still silent, as if nothing had happened, and the oil lamp was like a bean, which could only illuminate the corners of the hall. But it doesn't shine anywhere more.

He Mingchi knelt in front of the oil lamp, half of his body in the shadow.

Li Qingshan lay on the sickbed, quietly looking at the top of his head, as if he could see the rain falling on the Taoist hall, his brows slowly frowned, and he sighed with emotion: "I have changed the edict today, violated the Tang law, and also violated the will of His Majesty, I don't know what will be written in the history books after death, and how His Majesty will look at me." ”

He Mingchi was silent, at such a time, it was inappropriate for him to say anything.

"But I won't regret it, because Your Highness is right, it's not so much that I believe in her and Prince Hunyuan, it's better to say that I can't trust the Queen Mother, how can I let the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect become the master of my Tang Dynasty?"

Li Qingshan said indifferently: "If it weren't for her, how could His Majesty have died young?"

He Mingchi glanced up at him, thinking that the officials and people in the streets and alleys of the court thought that the queen mother was close to the national teacher, who would have thought of the real situation?

"Over the years, there have been too many funerals in Chang'an City, the veterans of the three dynasties, the veterans of the battlefield, have passed away one after another, and now His Majesty is also dead, and even the master is dead, what is this not providence?"

Li Qingshan turned his head to look at He Mingchi and said, "If I'm not mistaken, are you from Qinghe County?"

He Mingchi bowed his head and responded: "My family is a side branch of the He clan in Qinghe County. ”

Li Qingshan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "Is it the He family who had a Xiling Great Priest back then?"

He Mingchi was silent for a moment and then said, "Yes." ”

Li Qingshan looked at his favorite apprentice, sighed, and said, "It seems that I didn't guess wrong, you are really the person in charge of the sect, no wonder you are so interested in the Amazing God Array." ”

He Mingchi felt that his body suddenly became very cold, leaned forward, his hands on the black wooden plank, trembling slightly, not knowing what to say at this time.

"Master Zhangjiao, what he wants to do most in this life is to lead the Guardian Cavalry into Chang'an City and bring the Tang Dynasty back into the glory of the Xiling Temple, so he wants to break the Shocking Array more than anyone else. ”

Li Qingshan said: "You have been practicing Fengtian at the South Gate for so many years, the purpose is naturally to find the array eye pestle, but unfortunately, you have no talent in the rune path, so Senior Brother Yan Se can't accept you as an apprentice, and the array eye pestle was finally handed over to Ning Que, and now the array eye pestle is in the academy, and you have no choice, so these days you have to go to the small building in the palace often, and want to try to see if there is any other way to break the formation." ”

Only then did He Mingchi know that what he had done these days over the years had not been able to hide from the teacher's eyes at all. Speaking of which, how could the Tang National Master be such an easily deceived person.

His voice trembled slightly and asked, "Since the teacher knows this, why hasn't he exposed me?" ”

Li Qingshan said: "Because you are my favorite apprentice, because I am also struggling. ”

"Struggling?"

"Xiahou was born in the Demon Sect, but he became a Taoist Keqing, and he is also my Tang Dynasty general, and his whole life has been caught in the middle of breathing. The pain is unbearable. I believe in Haotian and am loyal to Datang, why not be miserable?"

"I didn't suffer or struggle because I didn't have to choose. I know that Datang will go on the current path and will go very smoothly, but now the situation has changed greatly. I wanted to choose a relatively smoother path for Datang, so I chose Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I didn't expose your ......"

Li Qingshan said: "Everyone in the world says that Chang'an City is unbreakable, and the cultivation world is praising the power of the Amazing God Array, but how many people know that the real unbreakable is the master?"

"If the Master had not died, you would have died by this time. ”

He looked at He Mingchi and said, "But the master is still dead after all, which once again proves that Haotian is invincible, and the Daomen will not let go of the academy or the Tang Dynasty." And this time. Without the Academy, it is no longer possible to fight against the whole world alone as it has done for thousands of years, so Datang will be defeated. ”

"If Datang wants to continue to survive, he can only return to Haotian's arms. ”

"I know there is an agreement between you and Prince Hunyuan. But don't forget that the Tang people are also believers in Haotian, and you are also a Tang people, so I hope you can make this process a little less bloody. ”

He Mingchi was silent for a long time, then kowtowed heavily and said, "I will fight for it with my life...... The heavy rain continued. Chang'an City looked like it was snowing.

The thousand-year-old city turned white overnight, countless banners fluttered on the streets, and the people standing under the eaves to hide from the rain had a look on their faces, and even many people wore linen and filial piety.

Only a very small part of this piece of white sè is dedicated to the master, because the master is not visible, and there are not many ordinary people who know that the guardian of the world has left this world.

The people of Chang'an mourn and miss the guardians of the Tang Dynasty, their benevolent and wise emperor Xià, who won the hearts of the people, passed away, in exchange for the crying in countless houses, which is also worth it.

The civil and military officials knelt in the rain in front of the palace hall, the official uniforms of the ministers were already wet, and the armor on the generals was washed by the rain and was extremely bright.

A eunuch standing in front of the stone steps to read the edict.

Several scholars, as well as Zhubu Shangshu and Wang Qingzhong, stood behind the eunuch, with different expressions on their faces, some surprised and some surprised, but the bottom was sad.

Before the Tang Empire could wake up from its grief, it ushered in a new master.

Li Huiyuan walked to the chair in the main hall, then turned around and sat down.

From this moment on, he was no longer the prince, but the emperor.

His face was still a little unhealthily pale, but it was no longer immature, nor did it have those unnatural dignity, the indifference in his eyes had long since turned into majesty, but his expression was naturally gentle.

It was only at this time that the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty discovered that the prince had already grown up.

Looking at the new emperor who was gradually showing a heroic spirit in the chair, there were the only remaining old ministers, looking at the cool face of his father, and the old tears rippled with feelings.

The ministers and generals of the queen's faction knelt down and saluted with their colleagues, silent and respectful, but their hearts were very heavy, and they even had doubts about the edict.

However, the edict could not be forged, and their suspicions were not proven.

They could only wait for the queen mother to return to Chang'an with another prince and accompany the coffin of the first emperor.

Until then, they could only hope that two places could change this qiē.

A minister went to the academy, but the academy was closed to no visitors.

The minister remembered that the master had died.

Some ministers went to the South Gate Temple, and afterwards the people above the court learned that His Majesty's edict was to preserve zài here, so they wanted to ask the national teacher Li Qingshan.

The door of the South Gate Temple opened, and it was He Mingchi who walked out, with a white ribbon tied around his waist.

The national teacher Li Qingshan died of illness.

From now on, he is the new South Gate Viewer, that is, the Lord of the South Gate of Haotian Dao......
