After leaving Si Mingguan's room, Emperor Qizhi's face was not good-looking.

Although these cultivators were a little polite to the Xia Dynasty on the surface, they didn't care about it in their hearts.

In the past, Pei Qingyan of the Xuantian Sect was wandering around, and then there were people from the Ten Thousand Law Alliance who asked to directly try the formation of the Xia Dynasty.

There is no trace of respect to speak of.

But he really can't do anything about these people.

No matter how prosperous the mortal dynasty is, in the face of these powerful forces that are considered giants in the immortal cultivation world, they are only a small person.

Little people inevitably have to look at people's faces.

Times are no longer the same.

It is no longer a time when the surrounding countries have to look at the face of the Xia Dynasty, and now the Xia Dynasty will also go through the stage of looking up to people.

Emperor Qizhi gently patted his cheek with his palm, the originally somewhat warm and angry face, the stiff smile quickly softened, and the little white hair hanging down from his temples was also pulled back.

He adjusted his emotions.

Since the Xia Dynasty is in his hands, there must be no accidents in his hands.

The ancestors and ancestors, the saints and sages, the Xia Dynasty has struggled for more than 100 years to get to where it is today.

In the new era, he needs to find a direction for the Xia Dynasty again, a direction that can make the Xia Dynasty great again.

This time, it is no longer the three questions that once plagued Mozi: Do the hungry get food? Do the cold have clothes? Does the laborer get the interest?

These problems have been solved by the Xia Dynasty, and through the efforts of generations, they have handed over their own answer sheets.

But new problems have reappeared.

He was unwilling to let the Xia Dynasty become a puppet like other mortal dynasties.

Then more efforts must be made.

This includes, but is not limited to, overcoming one's own emotions.

By the time he walked to the door of the room where Pei Qingyan was being held, the expression on Emperor Qizhi's face had become more and more gentle and kind, and it didn't look like he had come here for interrogation at all, but to meet his juniors.

Pushing the door in, Pei Qingyan was sitting at the table drinking tea, and there was no trace of panic on his face, that is, when he saw Emperor Qizhi who came here, he still had a smile on his face.

"Immortal Master Pei, meet again."

Emperor Qizhi was the first to say hello.

"It's a trouble, but it's bothering Emperor Xia."

Pei Qingyan didn't show up too much, but still got up and gave the least respect.

"The actions of immortals are really as difficult to fathom as the horns of an antelope. As soon as Pei Xianshi arrived in the imperial capital, he found the original address of Jishi Zhenren, which was really an eye-opener for me. ”

Emperor Qizhi did not use a difficult tone, but said quietly.

"Oh? It turns out that this is where the real people of the world used to live? ”

Pei Qingyan raised his eyebrows slightly.

I really found the right owner for him.

But the main lord seems to be no longer here, as Emperor Qizhi said.

On the contrary, it was the treasure left by the main owner in the small courtyard, and he unknowingly became the strongest cultivator within a hundred miles of the imperial capital of the Xia Dynasty.

It is worthy of being a master who can refine the thousand-year-old golden Guimu and enter the formation pattern, and he is really worthy of the word strange person.

"Yes."

Emperor Qizhi nodded lightly and said sincerely: "Jishi Zhenren has a great favor to the Xia Dynasty, and the courtyard he left behind, the Xia Dynasty will naturally keep it for it, and outsiders are not allowed to disturb it. ”

"I see, it's Pei and Meng Lang."

Pei Qingyan clasped his fists and saluted: "Out of curiosity, I used the spiritual objects of the sect to search for it, but I didn't think that I would stray there, I'm really embarrassed." ”

"It doesn't matter, as the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, and there is nothing unsightly there. It's just that everything there belongs to the real people of Jishi, and even the Xia Dynasty has no right to call the shots, so it's inconvenient for others to see it. ”

Emperor Qizhi said in a gentle voice.

In this matter, it is natural to turn the big thing into a small thing, and the small thing into a small thing.

has been holding on to it, but it seems that the Xia Dynasty is tired.

After all, the Xia Dynasty can't really do anything to these people, unless they are prepared to die, and the current situation is far from that level.

Pei Qingyan just nodded.

"There is another matter, don't bother Immortal Master Pei to tell what you saw in that small courtyard, otherwise it will only increase the trouble, but it is indeed a little difficult to deal with."

Emperor Qizhi said with a smile.

It is clear that the other party is looking for trouble, but he wants to say good things with a smiling face.

It's also difficult to be a Xia Emperor.

"It's nature."

Pei Qingyan nodded again and again, and said, "Pei is just a little curious, and he doesn't have any bad intentions. However, I still have to remind Emperor Xia that in the world of cultivating immortals, there are many ways to explore, even when the Heavenly Machine Sect also has a horse stumbling.

As long as the things in that small courtyard are still there, they will inevitably be noticed by people with intentions. If you don't want to have branches, it's better to find a way to use it. ”

This is indeed a clear statement.

As the saying goes, the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.

Within a radius of a hundred miles from the imperial capital of the Xia Dynasty, the strongest cultivator is a Lingzhen, which sounds a little ridiculous, but isn't it because that Lingzhen is quite extraordinary?

In his eyes, that elixir had the potential to grow into a heavenly medicine.

It was something that even the Jindan Monk would inevitably be tempted by, and it would even attract the attention of the Yuan Ying Venerable.

If there is a revival today, the signs of all spirits are full of vitality and rejuvenation, which is not only good for the monks, but also for the beasts in the mountains and fields, and the strange flowers and stamens.

Not to mention a Xia Dynasty, even if it is an ordinary little immortal sect, it is difficult to stay.

This admonition can be regarded as a small compensation for his offense against the Xia Dynasty, after all, this Xia Dynasty is still polite to him, and he is not the kind of person who lacks the cultivation treasure medicine.

Otherwise, if you change to an ordinary cultivator who has no background and is greedy, you can't talk to Emperor Xia here in a good voice or two, I'm afraid that I will run away if I pick it, and I won't bother to talk to you so much.

What yours and mine, allusions, old people, whoever picks it up and swallows it is who's whoever.

As for growing up in the land and belonging to the Xia Dynasty, this kind of thing is okay to talk to the ordinary people, you see that the monks don't care about you.

"I see."

Emperor Qizhi nodded slightly, since Pei Qingyan could say this, it proved that he really didn't have any greed, otherwise why would he warn him like this?

But because the strange flowers in the Gu family's small courtyard will become too precious, this kind of thing will be ruined in advance. Don't say he can't do it, how dare he do such a thing?

That thing is longer than the history of the Xia Dynasty!

And it was planted by Mr. Gu's old friend, how big of a face does he dare to do that kind of thing?

Sometimes it's not the things that are cherished, but the memories above.

Even when Mr. Gu was not here, no one dared to touch the Gu family's small courtyard for a single cent, isn't that exactly the truth?

For the Xia Dynasty and Mr. Gu, what is truly precious is not the treasure, but the ups and downs experienced under the witness of the treasure.

When the Holy King Wang Mang was still there, the flower would bloom.

It's too late to guard, how can it be possible to destroy flowers with spicy hands?

The Xia Dynasty has been protected by it for a hundred years, so it can't be impossible to do anything, right?

"But if anyone has a different heart for it."

Emperor Qizhi's originally gentle voice gradually became cold, and finally he no longer looked like a gentle elder, but a decisive king, "The sword of my Xia Dynasty is not disadvantaged!" ”

"Oh?"

Emperor Qizhi's reaction was a little unexpected by Pei Qingyan, after thinking about it, he flipped his palm, and a jade pendant appeared in his hand, and said, "Since this is the case, this jade pendant might as well be given to Emperor Xia." Placed in that small courtyard, the method of ordinary exploration can probably be dealt with, and it can also be counted as an apology. ”

"Then thank you Immortal Master Pei."

Emperor Qizhi took it with a smile, and this matter was revealed.

After seeing Emperor Qizhi go away, Pei Qingyan looked leisurely.

That jade pendant can indeed place many detection methods for others, but well, it will also leave an image of the person in contact, which requires special means to display.

The things of the Xuantian Sect are not so easy to take.

He still wanted to dig out the Jishi Zhenren behind the Xia Dynasty.

Don't ask why, it can only be said that the Heavenly Machine Sect acts, why do you need to think of so many reasons?

There are so many secrets in the world, and what Tianji Sect is best at is revealing secrets, even Tianji dares to spy on one or two, although he is not a disciple of Tianji Sect, but the biggest wish in this life is to join Tianji Sect.

Wouldn't it be a matter of course to practice in the mundane world in advance?

Discovering the secret itself is a great reward and satisfaction, and if you can get a glimpse of one or two in advance, the benefits are innumerable.

Now that you are spying on people's privacy, you will not be able to spy on the secrets of heaven in the future?

The so-called cultivators are practicing everywhere!

He has entered the red dust, and he acts with the means of the red dust.

Emperor Qizhi had just returned to the imperial study, and he still had time to deal with government affairs in the future.

A familiar voice suddenly came into my ears.

"You can't ask for that jade pendant, crush it and throw it into the pit."

Emperor Qizhi was startled at first, and almost blurted out and shouted, "Gu Gu is really busy today!" ”

He sat down in front of the bookcase as he spoke.

took out a pen and ink and wrote on the paper: [Is this thing fraudulent? 】

He didn't practice, he didn't know how to transmit sound into secrets, and he didn't even know where Mr. Gu was at this time and how he saw all this.

Even in order to avoid being spied on, this method of communication can only be used.

There is no way, the secret method of the Immortal Dao is too terrifying, and ordinary people have almost no ability to deal with it, no matter how cautious they are, it is impossible to be too cautious.

"Perhaps. But don't take any chances, I have my own way of coping with it. ”

Gu Dan transmitted the voice from a far, far distance.

Everything that happened here, the eyes of the sky are clear.

After Emperor Qizhi left, the expression on Pei Qingyan's face, Gu Dan naturally saw it very clearly.

It doesn't matter if you're kind or malicious, he doesn't bother to guess.

I don't want this thing.

The Gu family's courtyard doesn't need to be protected by others.

Emperor Qizhi wrote on rice paper: [I understand, I will do it. 】

"It's been a hard time for you. More than a decade later, it won't be like this. ”

Gu Dan said.

Emperor Qizhi's heart was shocked.

This is the elder, no matter how young he looks, he can still understand the difficulty of his junior, and he is not blamed for the exposure of the Gu family's small courtyard.

But more than ten years later?

Is it because Mr. Gu's cultivation has reached a bottleneck period, and it takes more than ten years to break through, so it is not convenient for outsiders to contact?

Emperor Qizhi didn't know and didn't ask.

Just continue to write on the rice paper: [As the Xia Emperor, these things are all as they should be. Hopefully everything I did, didn't disappoint you. 】

There was no sound anymore.

The conversation came to an end.

Emperor Qizhi waited for a while, and after being sure that Mr. Gu was no longer communicating with him, he lit an oil lamp, lit the rice paper with his own handwriting in the fire, burned it to ashes, and then completely crushed it.

After emptying all the thoughts in his mind, Emperor Qizhi began to deal with official documents.

The return of immortal cultivators is a major event, and the livelihood of the Xia Dynasty is also a major event.

Either way, he won't slack off.

As he said, this is the innate responsibility of Emperor Xia.

More than ten days have passed.

In front of the Imperial Capital.

Si Mingguan, who had been waiting for a long time, saw a handsome and elegant man riding a white horse walking towards here.

He hurriedly greeted him and greeted, "Senior Brother Liu, I have admired the name for a long time!" When I saw it today, it was really a beautiful son, with an extraordinary atmosphere, like an immortal! ”

The white-robed figure on horseback looked more like a scholar, and he looked much younger than him, but Si Mingguan was not ashamed to please him at all.

It was his honor to praise Senior Brother Liu.

This is the most proud disciple of the formation idiot, whether it is talent, temperament, or formation attainments, he is one of the most powerful in the younger generation, and is known as the second in the formation idiot.

Liu Qingming smiled: "Why is Senior Brother Si so polite? Along the way, I have seen a lot, and the atmosphere of this Xia Dynasty is quite different from other dynasties, so I delayed on the road for a while, but it made Senior Brother Si wait for a long time. ”

"Where? can walk side by side with Senior Brother Liu, I don't know how many others envy. This scene of the Xia Dynasty is indeed different, if it weren't for that, we wouldn't dare to bother Senior Brother Liu to come from thousands of miles away. ”

Si Mingguan followed his words and responded.

"yes. The words of Moism, Confucianism, and Legalism are really unique and intriguing. ”

Liu Qingming dismounted and exclaimed loudly.

"Huh?"

Si Mingguan was stunned.

No, I'll be polite to you casually, why do you really know more about the mortal dynasty?

He had naturally heard of the reputation of Moism, Confucianism and Legalism, but he had heard of it.

As for the story behind it?

I'm sorry, the immortals are not available.

No matter how heart-wrenching, impassioned, and earth-shattering, it is just mundane, how can it help the immortal Dao?

There is no need to know.

can look at Liu Qingming's posture, and when he came over, he seemed to have a detailed understanding of the history of the Xia Dynasty.

This made Si Mingguan regret it a little, he really should have learned about it, at least he could talk to Senior Brother Liu, right?

At the moment, he could only say vaguely: "Yes, yes, I think so too." ”

Liu Qingming's eyes lit up and asked, "Then I don't know Senior Brother Si, do you like Mojia, Confucianism, or Legalism?" ”

"Amount"

Si Mingguan was speechless for a while.

He doesn't know exactly what this thing is, but which one do I like?

I'll like whichever you like, okay?

"The three have their own strengths, so it's really not a good choice."

However, Si Mingguan is well-informed after all, and he will naturally say when he is confused, "Naturally, it is best to be able to learn from each other's strengths." ”

"Haha, that's even if it's difficult."

Liu Qingming shook his head slightly, if the three families can really be integrated, why can they stand on three feet in the Xia Dynasty?

"Gossip aside, Senior Brother Liu has just arrived here, so he should first pick up the wind and wash the dust for you, although the wine of the Xia Dynasty is not as good as the immortal wine, but it can also be drunk. There is also that exquisite formation waiting for Senior Brother Liu's appreciation, and it will definitely not disappoint Senior Brother Liu. ”
