July fire, midsummer night.

Daqian Dynasty, Yunjing, Imperial City, Weiyang Palace.

Three steps, one sentry, five steps and one post, everything is as usual.

In the corridor of the palace, there are palace maids standing all over the place, and occasionally there are female officials and eunuchs coming and going, all of them are flat soft shoes, and their steps are light.

The lights inside are transparent, the bright yellow and heavy curtains are covered, the eunuchs are holding the dust and not squinting, and in the dark of the hall, there are more figures appearing, which is the guard who is secretly responsible for guarding.

At this moment, a bright long lamp illuminates the room as bright as day, projecting two shadows, reflected on the bright yellow heavy curtain.

"See Your Majesty."

A young man with a somewhat immature face and a scholarly shirt bowed respectfully.

"It's Xie Qing......"

In front of him was an old man who was about half a hundred years old, with gray hair, dressed in a golden dragon robe, and a great majesty between his eyebrows.

It is the current ruler of the Daqian Dynasty - Emperor Yuantai!

After all, the average life expectancy in the Daqian Dynasty was very short, only about forty, even if he was a high-ranking emperor, more than fifty, he could be regarded as a dying old man.

"I don't know what His Majesty has ordered when he summons his ministers to come, but His Majesty ...... change the law."

"Hehe, Aiqing is too worried."

The old emperor stood up, came to Xie Yu and sat down, with a hint of a smile on his face:

"This late-night summoning, it's just that I have doubts about some things, and I have heard that Aiqing has always been knowledgeable, so I was incoherent, so I summoned to ask."

Hearing this, Xie Yu had some doubts on his face, but he still bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, please speak." ”

"I've been reading a lot of ancient books lately, and I found that there are immortals and gods in all dynasties, so I can't help but have some doubts. Aiqing, do you say that this so-called immortal god exists? ”

"If it exists, then why has it never appeared in the court, and if it doesn't exist, then why has the legend of the immortal god been heard from generation to generation?"

Summoned in the middle of the night, he didn't ask the common people, but asked the immortals......

Xie Yu's eyelids drooped slightly, covering the inexplicable emotion in his eyes, and he arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I foolishly think that the matter of immortals and gods is just the imagination of ordinary people, and it should not be true. ”

"Oh?" The old emperor seemed to be interested, and said with a hint of curiosity on his face, "Aiqing thinks that this so-called legend of the fairy gods is all fake?" ”

"The legend of the fairy god is a kind of spiritual sustenance of the people, and it is the wish that the reality cannot be fulfilled, and the things in the underworld can be realized, and it is also the origin of the so-called fairy gods......"

Xie Yu's face was as calm as water, and he told his cognition of the immortals.

“…… Therefore, the fairy gods are illusory in nature and do not exist. ”

Finally, he concluded.

"I have heard that Xie Sheng is a great talent, but when I see it today, it is true." After listening carefully, the old emperor sighed and said with emotion, "You can be the prince and young master." ”

This sentence determined Xie Yu's future position.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment, it's just ......" After hesitating for a moment, Xie Yu still said, "The minister's mentor Zhang Xianggong ......"

"Zhang Xianggong has been with me for many years, how can I be that mean and unkind person?" The smile on the old emperor's face was closed, and he waved his hand and said, "You go down first." ”

“…… Yes, then, retire. Xie Yu was silent for a moment, but still retreated.

"Do you think what he said is true?"

After he left, the old emperor, who was left alone in the empty room, suddenly spoke up.

"He's not lying."

In the shadows where the light could not shine, a voice came, and then a man with a feminine face walked out.

It is one of the two great congenitals stationed in the palace in the Daqian Dynasty, Gonggong Zhou.

"So in other words, there are no immortals in this world?" The old emperor's face was calm, and his tone could not hear joy or anger.

Father-in-law Zhou did not reply.

"Without immortals, there would be no immortality...... So, the Taoist priest who claimed to have descended from the Tianshan Snow Mountain and could refine the pill of immortality was deceiving me? ”

Father-in-law Zhou still didn't reply.

"You can retreat first." Faced with this result, the old emperor seemed to be unsurprised and shook his hand.

Soon, Grandpa Zhou took a step back and disappeared into the shadows.

The old emperor looked at the ever-bright lamp in front of him, and the expression in his pupils was uncertain.

If you want to prolong the number of days, do you only take the longevity of the sky......

Just as the old emperor was thinking, there was a sudden exclamation outside, and then, in the palace that should have been quiet, there were bursts of screams one after another!

"W-What the hell?"

"Drop, drop!"

"Go and tell Your Majesty!"

Xie Yu, who was very worried, just walked out of the palace gate and heard constant exclamations.

"What happened, what kind of system did it be?!" Xie Yu stopped the panicked guards and said in a deep voice.

"Heaven, heaven!" The guard was out of breath, and hurriedly broke free from his restraints and ran to the palace, "Go and tell Your Majesty!" ”

"Heavenly?" Xie Yu was stunned when he heard this, walked out of the palace hall, came to the empty square, and looked up, and the whole person couldn't help but be stunned in place.

Because in his eyes, above the nine heavens, in the vast sky, in the background of the vast night, located in the position of the purple microstar, there is a little golden light, and at this moment the brilliance is magnificent, taking away the bright brilliance of the stars in one fell swoop!

While!

While!

While!

The next moment, in the huge Yunjing City, the alarm bell rang for a long time, waking up countless Li people and royal nobles.

When they walked out of the room, they all saw this strange scene in the sky, and they were all shocked and unable to speak.

Under such heavenly changes, no matter what their status is, no matter how they are usually divided into three, six, nine and so on, they are just ordinary mortals!

I could only watch as a little star brightened up in the sky, and then, it turned into a streamer that pierced the sky and fell downward!

Faced with the peculiar scene, countless people couldn't help but exclaim: "This, this is ...... Stars come into the world?! ”

"The stars are born?!"

On a small road to Gangneung, inside a carriage, an old hand stretched out, lifted the curtain, and looked at the scene in the sky.

"Variables are in Gangneung...... Even the stars in the sky are enough to change the power, and naturally they can change the way of the world and create a real eternal peace......" Zhang Zhiping gently closed his eyes.

Then, he opened it again and said in a solemn tone: "Guys, we have to speed up!" ”

"Don't worry, brothers, speed up!" The middle-aged man roared, and then quickly whipped his horse and ran towards Jiangling.

And the little five behind him, his pupils radiated an excited light.

On this night, the Daqian Dynasty, whether it was the imperial nobles who were drunk and dreamed of death in the workshop, or the displaced people of Qiandao, whether it was the barbarians of the northern Xinjiang grassland, or the big families of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River...... They all stopped everything in their hands and looked up at the sky.

No matter how important things happen tonight, they can't compare to what is happening at this moment.

Because on this night, above the nine heavens, there are stars coming to earth!
