Emperor Qing put down the book, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "The national teacher has done a good job. ”

Li Chengjing was noncommittal about this, and then told Emperor Qing about the involvement of Xuan Lingzi, the elder of Yan Guo's Measuring Mountain.

The elderly Qinghuang leaned on the dragon chair, listened quietly with his eyes closed, and there was no joy or anger on his face.

After Li Chengjing finished speaking, Emperor Qing laughed lightly after a long time.

"Very good, I thought this was just a simple defection of my Qingguo monk, but I never expected that this would involve monks from other countries. Collusion with foreign enemies and assassination of court officials is very good, very good. ”

After saying that, Emperor Qing stood up and walked towards the outside of the main hall.

Li Chengjing was stunned and asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to get better?" ”

Emperor Qing stopped, glanced back at Li Chengjing, and said with a smile: "Now that the truth is in me, there is no need to get sick." The matter of your flesh and bones, the national teacher, has long been well-known in the capital. The national teacher treated me with medicine to get rid of the disease, and it is not a shocking thing to recover immediately. ”

Li Chengjing nodded, there was really no need to get sick.

Li Chengjing also understood why Emperor Qinghuang was sick.

Although the extermination of the three sects this time was based on the reason of the three sects of treason.

But the Xuanmen monks, without a country and no home, although they want to flee from Qingguo to Yanguo, but in the eyes of the Xuanmen monks on the mountain, it is just the sect to migrate to the mountain gate, what is wrong.

Strangling the three sects with treason, in the human world, the natural law is complete, but in the world of metaphysical cultivation, it is not so tenable.

Emperor Qing's support for Li Chengjing to open the Demon Suppression Division originally made Xuan Xiu extremely dissatisfied, and now he directly showed the butcher knife to their Xuan Xiu sect, which will inevitably cause the Xuan Xiu sect to resist.

If these Xuanxiu sects don't come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, Emperor Qing will think that the sun has come out of the west.

And their appeal, Emperor Qing can almost guess without much brains, it is nothing more than asking the imperial court to abolish the town demon division and deal with Li Chengjing and other related monks.

Now the other party has not arrived, but because the forces of the Xuanxiu Sect are complicated, it will take a lot of time for the assembly to unify the candidates.

But this day is always coming.

At that time, how Emperor Qing replied became a big problem.

If he agreed, it would inevitably weaken the prestige of the human emperor that Emperor Qing had established all his life, and it would also indicate the victory of the Xuan Xiu world over the human world.

But if you don't agree, it will definitely make the major sects hostile to the Qingguo court, and even unite to flee Qingguo, making Qingguo a country without large sects.

At that time, without these Xuanmen monks to eliminate demons and defend the way, Qingguo will also become a blissful place for demons and monsters.

Even a treacherous and cunning master like Emperor Qing didn't think of a way to do both ways for a while.

However, if Sanzong defected, if he pretended to be deaf and dumb, the ending would not be much better than the previous two endings.

At that time, all the small and medium-sized sects will flee, and those large sects, the monks of the Holy Land Ancestral Court, they will not be able to mobilize.

The results are similar.

It is nothing more than that there are these large sects, and the monks of the Ancestral Court Holy Land walk the world, and they will not let demons and monsters run rampant in Qingguo.

In order to deal with the upcoming them, Qinghuang can only pretend to be sick.

The emperor is critically ill, and even a big thing can only be pushed back.

As long as Emperor Qing is not well ill for a day, Xuanxiu on the mountain will not be able to use this matter to force Emperor Qing.

Even if they knew that Emperor Qing was pretending to be sick, it would be useless.

If they dare to persecute Emperor Qing too much, the monarchs of Yuan and Yan really have to think carefully about whether to accept monks from Qingguo, and even their attitudes towards their own monks will change drastically.

Although it is just a simple procrastination, it also shows Qinghuang's grasp of people's hearts.

But now it was different, and foreign monks joined forces with their own defectors to assassinate the imperial court officials, killing thousands of soldiers.

Such a tragedy in the world, let alone the ordinary people of Qingguo, even those domineering ancestral court holy lands, they don't dare to be bored at this moment.

Moreover, taking advantage of this flying skill, Emperor Qing could even put his hand into those medium and large sects in a grand manner.

Further control of the Xuanxiu Sect.

After all, the luck of the human race is carried by the dynasty, if this kind of thing is not forbidden to happen for the second time, humanity collapses, and these so-called fairy lords on the mountain will have no good fruits to eat.

Therefore, although Li Chengjing narrowly escaped death several times, he did not feel angry, but wanted to thank Xuan Xiu of Measuring Mountain for helping them a lot.

Coming to the gate of the palace, Emperor Qing suddenly stopped, looked back at Li Chengjing, and asked, "Next, what are you going to do?" ”

Li Chengjing said with a smile: "Naturally, Xingshi asks for guilt!" After all, Measuring Mountain gave such a big gift, if we don't know how to give a gift, wouldn't it be a disappointment to others' hard work. ”

When Emperor Qing heard this, he was silent for a while, and then he understood what Li Chengjing meant, and laughed.

"It is my luck to have the help of the national teacher, and it is also a blessing to celebrate the country!"

"Squeak!"

The gates of the palace were opened.

Emperor Qing walked out of the palace with official steps, standing on the top of the white marble steps, and greeted the worship of hundreds of officials.

That look, the dragon is fierce and high-spirited, where is the slightest bit of a terminally ill look.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, the dragon is well! God bless Your Majesty, God bless the country! ”

"Congratulations to my father, my body has recovered, and my son can finally rest assured!"

At this time, a young man wearing a prince's uniform walked quickly to Emperor Qing's side and bowed.

Li Chengjing just walked out of the hall and looked at the young man curiously.

It is the crown prince of today's Qingguo, the young son Xin, whose real name is Gongsun Xin.

He is the youngest and luckiest of Qinghuang's adult children.

Shaozi Xin also glanced at Li Chengjing curiously.

The story about this person Shaozi Xin has heard I don't know how many versions, and now he has seen a real person.

Even, this person is still kind to himself.

Li Chengjing generously gifted Emperor Qing and a dragon corpse with him, indirectly helping him prove that he belonged to the destiny of heaven.

Let the ministers who were originally attacked by the ministers and persuade Emperor Qing to appoint other princes shut their mouths and helped him stabilize the position of the crown prince.

If it weren't for the young age, and the previous princes were too eager to fill because they participated in court politics too early, they would not only lose the throne in the end, but also lose their lives. Emperor Qing learned from the pain and has not let the prince participate in court politics so far.

This is also why Li Chengjing has been in the capital for so long, and he has even been in and out of the palace many times, but he has never seen what the prince looks like.

Shaozi Xin threw a friendly smile at Li Chengjing, and then quickly retracted.

He knew Emperor Qing's taboo, because of the previous princes, Emperor Qing didn't like him to have any intersection with the ministers too early.

Li Chengjing also returned a friendly smile.

Speaking of which, he and this prince have long been related.

"The national teacher's wonderful hand rejuvenation, I have long heard of his mysterious medical skills of the living dead, flesh and bones, today with the help of the national teacher, I can cure the disease and get healthy again, I think, how should I reward the national teacher!"

Hearing this, the ministers talked a lot.

It didn't take long for someone to come forward and give advice.

However, all the ministers are very tacit, and the suggestions to Emperor Qing are all gold and silver, and at most they are honorary and void positions.

Li Chengjing's current power is not small, and he is a celebrity around Emperor Qinghuang, and the major parties naturally don't want to see another force in the court fighting for power with them, so it is naturally impossible for Li Chengjing's power to expand further.

Emperor Qing also seemed to forget about this matter, and complied with the advice of the ministers and gave Li Chengjing a few boxes of gold, silver and silk.

Not even a knighthood.

But Li Chengjing didn't care about it.

Emperor Qing, who had just recovered from a serious illness, seemed to be very happy, and after this incident, he let the ministers disperse.

As soon as Li Chengjing wanted to leave and prepare for the rest of the matter, a teenager ran over.

"Gongsun Xin has seen the national teacher! The widow wanted to see the national teacher every day, but he didn't expect to get his wish until today. ”

Li Chengjing smiled and said: "The prince is polite, he is just an ordinary person, but he is not three heads and six arms, I am afraid that the prince will be disappointed!" ”

The young son Xin laughed, looked at no one around, and said in a low voice: "The widow's concubine often mentions you, and treats you as a brother and sister, thinking that the national teacher was willing to give the widow a dragon corpse, but also for the sake of the widow's concubine's face!" ”

Li Chengjing did not deny it, and said with a smile: "Since the crown princess recognizes me as a gentleman, how can you not help as a gentleman, besides, it is just a gesture, His Royal Highness the crown prince does not need to be too grateful." ”

Shaozi Xin shook his head and said: "Jinghua greatly admires the knowledge of the national teacher, which makes the widow itch unbearably, but I don't know when I will have the honor to listen to the teachings of the national teacher!" ”

Li Chengjing said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince of the empire, and what he should learn should be the imperial technique. What I learned below was Taoism. Not to mention the decline of the Taoist family, even if the Taoist Spring and Autumn Period is prosperous, it is not suitable for the emperor to learn, if you really want to call His Royal Highness the Taoist Prince, then I am afraid it is a misguided child. ”

Shaozi Xin did not feel that Li Chengjing was distancing himself because of Li Chengjing's refusal, but sincerely invited Li Chengjing to the East Palace.

In desperation, Li Chengjing could only agree.

However, in order to hide people's eyes, the two sides still walked separately.

After all, Li Chengjing doesn't know how many people have provoked now, and if he sees him and the prince walking too close, he will undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble.

This is what Li Chengjing does not want to see.

He has too many things to do now, and he only feels that he has not enough time, but he doesn't have so much time to intrigue with these courtiers.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Li Chengjing immediately performed the Taoist method, flew into the air, and arrived all the way to the Prince's East Palace.

As soon as it landed, it caused a lot of commotion, but it was quickly stopped by Shaozi Xin.

Mi Jinghua had already stood with Shaozi Xin and waited.

When she saw Li Chengjing, Mi Jinghua was rarely excited.

Looking at Mi Jinghua, who is half a head taller than Shaozi Xin, although her appearance has not changed, her graceful and luxurious temperament has long been different.

It's just that today's young son Xin has not grown tall, standing next to Mi Jinghua, the two are not like husband and wife, but more like sons and stepmothers.
