Chapter 30: Give Money
Although Zhao Rui is the emperor of the Great Song Kingdom, he is high in the eyes of the mortals, but in the eyes of the immortal gate, he is just an obedient dog outside the Yuqing Palace.
In the eyes of many immortal sects, anyone can be the emperor of the mortal world, and the reason why he has been sitting firmly for decades is because he is the outer disciple of the Yuqing Palace.
But that's all, this identity aura may be worth so many points in the eyes of the monks of the Kaiyuan Realm, but in front of the monks above the True Yuan Realm, it is a fart.
If you are in a good mood, you will salute and call your friends, and if you are in a bad mood, it will be unceremonious to call the dog emperor.
Seeing that Zhao Rui's mind was confused, the old man couldn't bear to go too far, so he said: "Senior brother, you are the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhao Wuji is just a vassal king, even if he has hundreds of thousands of troops, I think it is not difficult for you to eradicate it, this kind of thing should be decided immediately, and the army can be directly summoned to suppress it, so why be so cautious about being a woman." ”
Zhao Rui sighed and said: "I also thought about it, but the army will be ruined together, and I can't bear it!" ”
"Huh!" The old man sneered and shook his head, then stood up and said: "Yuqing Hall will not interfere in mundane things, junior brother himself knows, you should find your own way in this matter, for the sake of the same door, I can only say so much, farewell!" ”
Zhao Rui stood up with a depressed face and sent it to the outside of the hall gate, and sighed: "There is a difference between immortals and mortals, as far as the sky and the sea, when I was hopeless in my cultivation, I went down the mountain and determined to protect the common people in the world, but I didn't want to cause trouble to Xiao Wall, and the evening was not guaranteed, alas, it's just that, I'll go to my brother Wang to have a good talk, it's a big deal to give him this throne." ”
The old man stopped and looked back and said, "Can you think about it, once this happens, you may not be left with chickens and dogs in the future, are you really willing to do it?" ”
Zhao Rui nodded with a gloomy face and said: "What else can I do if this is not the case, the world has been safe for decades, and it is better to die than to die tens of thousands of families." ”
The old man was finally moved at this time, sighed and shook his head: "Senior brother, it's not me who said you, your character is really not suitable to be an emperor, okay, since the Eight Kings colluded with the Ziyang Sect in front, and the Ziyang Sect has also intervened, if I don't help the Song Immortal Sect at all, I can't say it, but it is impossible to want the Yuqing Palace to intervene directly, today I am in charge, I can fund you with some low-level elixir magic weapons, and you can find someone to deal with the Ziyang Sect yourself, unless they have a strong person above the Danyuan Realm to enter the Great Song Dynasty, otherwise the elder group will not come forward." ”
Zhao Rui was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Thank you, senior brother, it is enough to have a magic weapon of elixir!" ”
The old man suddenly felt as if he had been deceived, and said with a smile: "In this case, you draw up a list of required elixir magic weapons and send it to the Treasure Pavilion, I'll leave, you can do it yourself!" ”
Seeing the old man leave the palace by car, Zhao Rui entered the palace and began to secretly recruit hundreds of officials and princes to discuss matters.
For a time, the upper echelons of the Beijing Division, people's hearts were panicked like the tide of the sea.
But for the ordinary people of Jingshi, they are unaware, and the entire Jingshi is still busy with lights, and is hurriedly preparing to celebrate the emperor's 100th birthday.
Since Zhao Rui ascended the throne and pacified the world, the Great Song Dynasty has been peaceful for decades, such as the peaceful people live and work in peace and contentment, and the industry, agriculture and commerce are prosperous.
But any dynasty, once it has been peaceful for too long, will inevitably have turmoil.
Because wealth is charming, power is confusing.
Everyone wants to sit on the throne of the emperor, let alone the emperor's younger brother who holds military power.
The Great Song Dynasty can have today's prosperous and prosperous era, not only because of Zhao Ruiyu's status as a disciple of the Qing Palace, but also because of the military exploits of the Eight Kings, who have been charging into battle to defend the western frontier for decades, so that the Ming Dynasty, who is eyeing the northwest, does not dare to cross the border one step.
But now, just when he was about to retire and pass on the throne, this prince, who worked hard and had a heavy army, finally couldn't hold back the tiger in his heart and wanted to win the throne.
In fact, the Eight Kings didn't have any chance.
But this immortal tomb excavated by the Marquis of Xilu gave him the resources and courage to collude with the Purple Yang Sect of the Ming Immortal Sect to help him fight against the Yuqing Palace.
Because as long as the Yuqing Palace's rat trap does not support Zhao Rui, he will have at least fifty percent certainty of success.
Although fifty percent is not high, but when it comes to their status and status, even if there is only one percent chance, they can barely give it a try.
And fifty percent is already a big opportunity.
After all, I have never heard of a rebellion at any time, and I am 100% sure.
Because the person who sits on the throne will never give you a chance to accumulate strength to ten percent.
In fact, there are usually signs that will be killed before there is a 10% chance.
Naturally, the movements of the Jingshi also quickly reached the ears of Zhao Wouji, the king of Pingxi, who was now in the western frontier, and hundreds of thousands of troops immediately began to assemble.
As a result, countless years of suspicion and vigilance on both sides finally officially tore their faces, and a mortal war was officially opened because of the excavation of an immortal tomb.
However, this matter did not affect Xu Chen and the others in the slightest.
They don't care even if they know.
Because for them, fighting life and death in the mortal world will definitely not affect their cultivation of immortals, and no matter how bold the mortal army is, they will never dare to touch a single hair of any immortal.
Unless, of course, someone is impatient.
They still don't know that the Xiyun County Lord has met Emperor Zhao Rui, and Zhao Rui has long been dissatisfied with the Eight Kings, and the two sides have begun to dispatch troops.
At the moment, their main concern was the Purple Sun Sect monk who had not yet appeared.
Xu Chen lay alone in the inn and recuperated for more than an hour, and it was already afternoon.
The ninth senior brother and the thirteenth senior sister Zhao Xuan have not yet returned.
The little fox arched on his chest to find milk to eat, Xu Chen had no choice but to stop practicing, and went downstairs with the little fox in his arms, wanting to ask the shopkeeper if he could help get some goat's milk and mare's milk, but the shopkeeper went out, leaving only an old servant who was a little deaf and dazzled to clean the courtyard.
Xu Chen asked a few times, but the old servant couldn't say it clearly, so he had to go out to find it by himself.
Jingshi is very large, more than ten times larger than Nanyang City, with a population of hundreds of thousands, so the degree of excitement is naturally different, Xu Chen asked questions on the street, walked a few streets, and finally found a store that sells dairy products, so he stepped forward to ask for some goat's milk to feed the little fox, but after taking a cup of milk to feed the little fox and drinking it up, he touched it all over and found that he didn't bring money.
On this trip, the city lord of Nanyang sent a lot of silver, but the two old rivers and lakes of the ninth senior brother and the thirteenth senior sister were responsible for arranging accommodation, eating and drinking, and Xu Chen had always been responsible for sleeping and eating and drinking as a follower, and he didn't care about money at all on weekdays.
The shopkeeper knew that he was going to suffer when he saw Xu Chen's whole body.
Sure enough, Xu Chen hugged the little fox and said with a dry smile: "Shopkeeper, I'm sorry, I didn't bring any money when I went out today, and I'll take the little fox to drink milk again tomorrow, how about paying you together?" ”
The shopkeeper almost hit his head with a milk spoon, and said angrily: "Look at your appearance, and your clothes are also good, why are you so stingy, you can only pay two pennies, and you are embarrassed to give it tomorrow." ”
Xu Chen: ......
If he is shocked at this time, release some divine pressure, and show his identity as an immortal master, not to mention this mere cup of goat's milk, I am afraid that it will not be a problem for the store to send him to the dairy.
But Xu Chen didn't want to reveal his identity, after all, there were a lot of monks in Jingshi recently, and it was not clear whether they were friends or foes, and when the ninth senior brother and the thirteenth senior sister left the inn, they also told him not to go out, let alone reveal the identity of the monk at will, so as not to be secretly attacked by the monks of the Ziyang Sect.
In fact, Xu Chen has always been very careful, if it weren't for the little fox being hungry and wanting to feed, he wouldn't have come out at all, after all, he was also afraid that he would lose his life by being careless.
Although it is said that immortals are different, immortals can't fight in mortal cities, but who is right.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll exchange things with you to ensure that you don't suffer a loss, and that you won't be fooled......"
In order to get out as soon as possible, Xu Chen took out a bunch of gadgets from the cowhide bag, but they were all messy things such as animal bones, animal teeth, paper charms, etc., and they were all things that the common people had never seen at all, and they didn't look like a decent thing, the shopkeeper's face turned green, and he pointed at Xu Chen's nose with a milk spoon and shouted: "What the hell are you doing, don't use it to coax me!" ”
Xu Chen was helpless, so he had to put the little fox on the counter and said, "Then I'll put the little fox here and get the money later, okay?" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head like a drum, and said angrily: "You want to be beautiful, I'm very busy, how can I have time to look at this little thing, when you turn around, it will run away with you in the blink of an eye, won't you drink a glass of milk for nothing." ”
Xu Chen could only sigh and say, "Then what do you say?" ”
"Give money!" The shop is a sure deal.
Xu Chen: ......
I think I'm a flying immortal, but I can't die of two pennies.
Xu Chen couldn't wait to grit his teeth and take out a pill to pay the bill, but it really hurt when he thought about it.
At this time, there were only Xiao Yuan Dan and Da Yuan Dan on him, and the Qing Shui Dan that was worthless to reward was all on the ninth senior brother and the thirteenth senior sister.
"It's okay if you don't want to be like this, believe it or not, I won't give money and run away!"
When Xu Chen was a child, he was a cow herder who picked up dung, and he was not a child of a big family.
"Come on, some people don't pay for milk, and all the neighbors come to comment!"
Before Xu Chen's words fell, the shopkeeper opened his throat and shouted.
Xu Chen's face was instantly black, and he could drip ink.
Today it's a big mess.
Sure enough, soon a large group of people gathered around, pointing at Xu Chen, ridiculing him for being dressed in new clothes and looking like a dog, and even drinking milk without giving money.
Just when Xu Chen was being pointed at by Qianfu under the triumphant expression of the shopkeeper, suddenly a crisp and loud woman's voice sounded:
"I heard that the people of the Great Song Dynasty are polite and light on money and righteousness, but I didn't expect that there would be such a barbaric person in the dignified Jingshi, framing others for just two pennies."
When everyone turned around, they saw a young woman wearing a colorful skirt and towering temples like a fairy, and Nana was walking into the circle of people.
