Qin Da walked out of the palace and walked down the street with the eunuchs, and pedestrians avoided it one after another.

There were fewer and fewer people on the street, because there was an eerie yamen at the end of the long street.

This is the investigation factory created by Qin Da, which is directly managed by His Majesty, so in most cases it means that this is his yamen.

The Detective Factory has thousands of secret spies, a larger number of cavalry, and most of the high-level officials are eunuchs promoted by Qin Da, who can directly supervise and arrest ministers and even princes without the approval of the department, and have great power.

The eunuch officials were all dressed in low-key black, and the powerful cavalry commanders were dressed in brocade, which was still dazzling even in the night.

Qin Da walked into the yamen, the eunuchs and the cavalry commanders bowed down one after another, he walked to the top with a blank face, untied the big hat and threw it to his subordinates, and sat down in the chair.

Everyone knelt down and said in unison, "Meet Chitose-sama." ”

Qin Da was still expressionless, his fingers were slightly curled, and he motioned for everyone to get up, supported his chin with his right hand, closed his eyes and began to recuperate.

The subordinates knew the habits of the adults, and as usual, they stepped forward in turn to report on the latest situation.

"The students of Wansong Academy complained a lot, and even secretly contacted the Confucian students of Qi State, wanting to do great rebellion, and the thirteen of them have been imprisoned."

The official paused, and then said: "It's just that the news leaked a little quickly, the students of the academy have already gathered, if it is forcibly suppressed, I am afraid that it will cause ......."

Qin Da closed his eyes and said: "Scholars can't be killed, killing them is as they want, as for how to deal with it, do you want me to teach you?" ”

His tone was very calm, but the official was instantly soaked with cold sweat, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "The factory is making preparations, but it will take some time for those letters to be made, and we will point out the leading few people to pass through Qin, and then there will be righteous people who break into their homes, or set fires, or kill people......

Qin Da was a little dissatisfied, and said, "It's still too rough, be more detailed." ”

The official wiped his sweat and retreated, and then another official stepped forward to report: "Qi Shang was quite slow to react to the incident of the Kunshan Water Canal, but the He and Xiao families were obviously vigilant and imported a large amount of silver into the capital in an attempt to buy off the officials of the court. ”

Qin Da opened his eyes and slowly swept over the faces of his subordinates.

If Qi Shang wants to bribe the courtiers, these eunuchs in the investigation factory are naturally the focus, but I am afraid that they have already been fattened.

No one dared to raise their heads and look at Qin Da, the official who reported forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and said with a pale face: "Please show me." ”

"The Kunshan Water Canal will not move, so you can take the money of Qi Shang as you like."

Qin Da said expressionlessly: "But what I want, they must also send it quickly, and I will give them as much as they want, but if they still refuse to send the information of the treasure ship, then release the news that the maritime merchants of the Qi State have humiliated my envoys, and then ...... Let Zheng Yu go ashore. ”

The officials felt that the air in the yamen had become even colder—Qi merchants could be bribed or deterred by killing. Everyone knows that Xiao He's father-in-law is not very patient, and he will kill people if he fails to buy it once, but today it is obvious that his murderous spirit is extremely heavy.

It was naturally unwarranted for the maritime merchants of the State of Qi to humiliate the envoys of the State of Zhao, but Zheng Yu was a real god of murder - whether it was the State of Qi or the State of Zhao, even the officials of the Detective Factory were speculating whether this famous pirate would be a fierce dog raised by Gonggong Xiao He. As for why the father-in-law cared so much about the information about the treasure ship, no one could figure it out.

The third official began his own report: "Chen Yushi still insists on refusing to admit it. ”

"Then continue to interrogate, interrogate well, interrogate carefully, don't let him die, and don't let him live too comfortably."

Qin Da thought about the iron-clad Imperial Master, and a mocking smile appeared on his face, but he didn't know who it was for.

"Speaking of which, if the court is full of such lonely and widowed officials who have no father, no mother, no wife and no children, how can we do things for Your Majesty?"

The official plucked up the courage to ask for instructions: "If he confesses to Xihuai, how will he be interrogated next?" ”

Xihuai is a scenic spot in Hejian Province.

Qin Da raised his eyelids, glanced at the official, and said, "What benefits did the river send you?" ”

The official smiled bitterly and said, "If you accept benefits, how dare you ask this, it's just ...... That's the palace after all. ”

Hearing this, the expressions of the officials in the investigation factory changed slightly, and they all felt that this matter was a little difficult.

If it is an ordinary royal mansion, the investigation factory will also investigate, and there are still two county kings and three uncles in the current edict prison, who is afraid of those.

But the ...... in the palace of the river king But the future Emperor Your Majesty!

Qin Da quietly looked at the subordinates in the audience and said, "I only have Your Majesty in my eyes, and there is no one else, understand?" ”

Hearing this, the officials were physically and mentally cold, and they fell to their knees one after another, not daring to say a word.

……

……

The Imperial Palace of the State of Chu.

In the coldest palace, the starlight also became cold.

The blue bird paced in front of Su Qingming, thinking about the pictures he saw in the capital of Zhao Kingdom, and said with some fear: "That eunuch is really perverted and terrifying. ”

Su Qingming said: "Say Emperor Zhao." ”

The blue bird came to his senses and said, "The relationship between Qin Da and Emperor Zhao is indeed complex and delicate, but in this way, Emperor Zhao can see through the reality of the world?" I can't understand it. ”

In the past, there had been cases in the Qingtianjian where someone had cultivated to an extremely high place and was eventually erased by the Heavenly Tribulation, but the situation between Mr. Qi and Emperor Zhao was completely different.

These two people are soberly aware, or rather feel, that the world around them is not real.

The illusion is not the real world, and the people in it are naturally not real lives.

But if someone recognizes the falsehood of the world, it means that they see the truth and then become the truth.

She has lived in Qingtianjian for tens of thousands of years, and she has never seen anything like it.

"I told you it all started with yourself."

Su Qingming looked at the blue bird and said, "You must first recognize yourself. ”

The bluebird walked to the tea bowl, looked out into the water, and saw the reflection of a bird.

The wind rose, causing ripples on the surface of the water and blurring the reflection.

She turned into a little girl carved in ice, her transparent wings flapping slightly, bringing a fresh wind, exuding a faint fairy feeling to the surroundings.

The people in the palace didn't feel it, but the trees with the snow outside the window and the birds in the nest did.

Qing'er looked into the tea bowl again, then looked up at Su Qingming and said puzzledly, "I am me." ”

Su Qingming said: "When I saw you for the first time in the small building, I confirmed that you were a Tianbao True Spirit, but there was still a trace of it. ”

Qing'er was a little ignorant and asked, "What's the difference?" ”

Su Qingming dipped her fingers in the bowl with some tea, smeared it on her eyebrows, and said, "Although you don't know it, it's not bad now." ”

Qing'er felt a coolness in her eyebrows, and remembered that scene again.

It's still that peak, there are snow-capped mountains outside the bar, and there are snow-capped mountains inside the bar.

She lied to Lord Fu Shan.

It's not a big lie, it's just harmless.

But that was the first time she had lied.

"Yes, from that moment on, I became a truly complete Heavenly Treasure True Spirit."

Qing'er looked at Su Qingming and asked with an inquiring look, "But what does that have to do with these things that happened in Qingtianjian?" ”

Su Qingming said: "The true spirit of Tianbao has its own realm, and it is born to hide the world. ”

Qing'er was surprised, covered her mouth with her little hand, and asked, "Really?" How do you know? ”

Those Heavenly Treasure True Spirits in the ancient period had already ascended with the Gu Immortals, or withered due to time.

It has been many years since the Heavenly Treasure True Spirit appeared, and no one knows what the Heavenly Treasure True Spirit really means.

The head of the Zhongzhou faction didn't know, the master of Fu Mountain didn't know, and even Qing'er himself didn't know, but Su Qingming knew.

"I've seen a Heavenly Treasure True Spirit before, and you're the second."

He said: "Once you become a true Heavenly Treasure True Spirit, you will naturally enter the realm of Tibetan Heaven. ”

Qing'er said in disbelief: "I remember that your Tibetan world is still above the Mahayana, doesn't that mean that I am already an immortal now?" ”

Su Qingming said: "You can also understand it this way. ”

Qing'er opened her eyes wide and said, "Because I became an immortal, so the people in Qingtianjian will wake up?" ”

Su Qingming said: "The hidden world is the real world, and it is no longer an illusion, so the people inside will naturally become real people." ”

Qing'er thought for a long time before she fully understood this statement, and said with some uncertainty: "Then I am the master of this world?" ”

Su Qingming said: "It can be understood in this way, but your situation is very different from the Tibetan world I have seen, our world is a void, but your world is a world that has existed for tens of thousands of years, according to my calculation, when the world in the Qingtianjian is destroyed, you will also disappear, so it is more like a symbiotic relationship." ”

Qing'er hugged her small fist and said with an intoxicated expression: "I suddenly feel that I am so great, no, grand. ”

Su Qingming said: "You think too much. ”

Qing'er didn't want to pay attention to him and asked, "Then what should I do next?" ”

"Wait."

Su Qingming said: "You can't let others know. ”

Qing'er said with a proud face: "How many years have there been no immortals like me in the Great Wilderness Ancient Realm, except for that monster in the north, what am I afraid of?" ”

Su Qingming said: "The realm does not represent combat power, you yourself have said that you are just appreciating the spirit, not the rules, not to mention that there are immortal urns here." ”

Qing'er understood what he meant, felt a little frustrated, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "What is the Tianbao True Spirit you have seen before?" ”

Su Qingming said: "It's a scholar. ”

Qing'er's eyes widened and said, "Huh? ”

"Sometimes it's a grass, sometimes it's a rock, sometimes it's even a monkey."

Su Qingming finally said: "Of course, more often than not, it's a book. ”

Qing'er didn't understand Su Qingming's words, thought about it seriously, but still didn't understand, so she gave up and asked, "Are you really not worried about Qin and Zhao?" Luoyang and that dead eunuch are really terrifying, not to mention that Miss Li is still in the illusion world. ”

Su Qingming said: "Other people's affairs have nothing to do with me. ”

Qing'er remembered the picture on this couch more than ten years ago, and sighed and said: "She really likes you, I thought there would be a lot of stories between you, who would have thought that you would be so ruthless." ”

Su Qingming said: "It's all fake. ”

Qing'er opened her eyes wide and said, "But you said that this world is becoming real. ”

Su Qingming said: "For any world, the people who are destined to leave in the future are fake. ”

This sentence has a deep meaning, and it is obvious that it is not only the world in Qingtianjian, but also the real world outside.

Qing'er looked at him for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Then what are you doing in this world?" ”

Su Qingming said, "I want an immortal urn." ”

The purpose of every inquirer who enters the Qingtianjian Fantasy Realm is to immortalize immortals.

It's a very cheesy answer, or it can be said to be simple, then it is very pure.

Qing'er looked at him and asked seriously, "Are you sure you can succeed?" In the case that I can't help you. ”

Su Qingming said: "I have chosen a different method and a different path with them, and I will only know who is right in the end." ”

……

……

When people look back on the past and try to clarify their memories, they often choose some important events as the time node. Sadly, those important events are generally not joyful events, but mourning events, such as which elder in the family closed his eyes on a bamboo chair, or which loved one's funeral white flag was blown down by the wind.

For the people, the funeral must be of a higher standard, and the weight of the dead must be heavy enough, so that their collective memory can be deep enough to become their spiritual chronicle, such as the death of the emperor. Of course, in this case alone, it is difficult to clearly distinguish between funeral and happy events, because the death of the old emperor means that the new emperor ascends the throne.
