At this moment, there was a person in their hearts, this person was none other than an old man who had been hiding in the Taishi Bureau for an unknown number of years and had cultivated to an unfathomable level.

Although in terms of age, this mountain man should have turned into dust in the years, but there are strange people in the world, and it is not surprising that there have been some Taoists who have cultivated to pass the gods and lived for two or three hundred years.

According to Qin Ke's description, the old man was thin and old, maybe he really used some strange magic to forcibly extend his lifespan, and he was a former dynasty who had been stranded in the world for hundreds of years.

However, Gao Yishui thought more, in addition to the conjecture of the old man, there was another possibility, perhaps...... Someone else who has been divinely inspired?

There must be a connection between the artifact and the Divine Apocalypse, and the Divine Apocalypse is not unique, which is enough to prove from some of the traits shown by Qin Ke.

Is it possible, then, that these inspired beings will come together with each other and become one, as one ...... Organization?

Only in this way can those innate techniques that have long been lost be able to be passed down in a way that is not very rigorous but effective in the long river of time.

"It's like...... This kid. Gao Yishui glanced at Qin Ke quietly, and became more and more convinced that Zhuge Wolong's choice of Qin Ke was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface.

However, Jing Yu didn't think as much as he thought, there was something about the situation in the palace, because he didn't have time to ask in detail about sorting out the silk books, so he naturally didn't know about the existence of the old man.

He said slowly: "After so many years, even a reclusive monk should be no longer alive now, but it is also written in this silk book, if you can't find him, you can go to a tea shop called 'Forget Worries' at the foot of the mountain, and someone will pick him up." ”

Jing Yu continued: "Funiu Mountain is more than 500 miles away from Ding'an City, which is not too far. ”

"Then what are we waiting for?" Qin Ke was naturally overjoyed, finding the Five Elements Sinan was equivalent to taking the first step, and he was one step closer to the master, "I can go now, the fast horse will be transferred for ten days, and the carriage should be there in half a month!"

At this moment, he was in good spirits, his qi and blood were even more full, and he turned around and wanted to walk out.

Gao Yishui looked at his anxious look, pulled his collar hard, and smiled helplessly: "What are you anxious about? Could it be that this night is missing? What's more, Ding'an City is like this tonight, and the city gate has already been blocked, even if it is a bird, it has to be shot down as a carrier pigeon, where can I get out?"

Jing Yu nodded and said, "Yes." Although the sooner this matter is done, the better, but we still have to think in the long run, and now we can only wait here for news, and we can't control the struggle in the upper echelons of the Tang Kingdom, and it is impossible for us to manage it. ”

At this moment, the old shopkeeper who had been sitting on the chair and closing his eyes and taking a nap finally spoke: "Don't worry." This chaos won't be long...... Tonight will see the blessings and failures. ”

Gao Yishui looked at the old shopkeeper, the fortitude of this old dark pile who had been silent in the Tang Kingdom for many years and did not change his color when Taishan collapsed in front of him, left a deep impression on him.

"Why did the shopkeeper say this?" Gao Yishui asked with a smile.

"At the earliest, I thought that Cai Yong was planning to enter the palace gate with strong troops and kill Yang Taizhen in the name of the Qing monarch's side. The old shopkeeper opened his eyes, revealing a little tired, "But the news in the palace is that he has troops to control all parts of the palace, and he has no intention of attacking the inner palace at all." Then came the news of the mutiny of the 10,000 troops of the Ding'an City battalion, and I understood a little. Cai Yong has practiced Confucianism all his life, how could he do such a rebellious thing. And Li Qi, who was stationed in Ding'an City, was also such a person, if Cai Yong wanted to kill Yang Taizhen with strong troops, it was already the limit for him to be able to hold his troops still, and it was impossible for him to lead the troops to rebel. ”

After Gao Yishui pondered, his eyes lit up and said: "What the shopkeeper means is that Cai Yong, who launched a rebellion, did not want to control Li Qiuhuang, but to use this to launch a 'military admonition'?"

The old shopkeeper said: "He understands better than anyone else that the problem of Tang Guo is not that Yang Taizhen is a female ** chaotic court, but ...... Li Qiuhuang's inaction and deliberate indulgence. ”

"No matter how powerful Yang Taizhen is, she can form a party in the Tang Kingdom, and she can cover the sky in the court with one hand, but after all, she is just a concubine, and she is a family member in the Tang Kingdom, and she is just an outsider in the entire Tang Kingdom. However, Li Qiuhuang has the prestige accumulated by several generations of previous kings in the Tang Kingdom, and the star-like power of the entire Tang Kingdom. If there was no Tang king, how could it become a Tang state? As long as he gave an order, it would not be difficult to wipe out Yang Taizhen and his comrades overnight. Cai Yong: This is ...... I want to force Li Qiuhuang to make up his mind......"

Gao Yishui nodded: "When you come to it, you will follow it in fear." There have been precedents for military advice since ancient times, but this kind of thing, even if the time and place are right, it is also a risky move, Cai Yongdu is at this age, and he still has the courage to dare to make such a risky move? If it were me, I would never put my life in the hands of Li Qiuhuang, it is better to forcibly let Li Qiuhuang make himself a regent minister, and kill or lock Yang Taizhen, since then, the government is up to him, Li Qiuhuang can't support it, and he may not be able to support a new monarch. ”

"The old man always has some insistence, otherwise where does the 'old stubborn' saying come from?" The old shopkeeper smiled, the wrinkles on his face seemed to be a little more vivid, and sometimes, only the old man could understand the old man: "The reason why I believe that he is carrying out military advice is because Cai Yong was a general when he was young, and he fought seven battles in a row, and he was a soldier who defeated the strong with the weak." Although he is old now, the things in his bones will not change. To implement the word 'loyalty' in his heart, and to force Li Qiuhuang to revive the state politics of the court, there is no other way. ”

Palace of the Don Kings.

Even though the rain poured down before, it was impossible to invade the towering Qionglou Yuyu of the Tang Kingdom, and the lights of the inner palace were not dimmed because of this rebellion, and the sound of silk and bamboo was in the ears, and the dancing girls were dancing in the hall, and the dance skirts on their bodies were fluttering like flames.

The banquet should have ended a long time ago, but for some reason, it lasted until late at night.

But although the candle flame has not wavered, and the meal has not been slackened, the hundred officials who went to the banquet have long been in the same state of mind.

As early as an hour ago, they had already received the news that 2,000 forbidden troops, 1,000 patrol battalions, and 10,000 troops had rebelled at the same time overnight!

This is the first large-scale rebellion in so many years since the canonization of the first Tang king, and this rebellion occurred at the foot of the Son of Heaven of the Tang Kingdom, in the city of Ding'an!

Although there are still 3,000 forbidden troops in the inner palace and still holding on, in the face of more than 16,000 troops, how long can these 3,000 elites hold this palace wall?

At this time, no one could watch the dance steps, and no one could eat the delicacies elaborate in the imperial dining room, and the whole hall was filled with all kinds of whispers.

Some people are worried about how much time it will take for the rebels to fight here, some people are sarcastically sitting on Yang Taizhen who pretends to be calm, and some people are raising their eyebrows, they have been suppressed by Yang Taizhen's party for many years, and finally feel that one day they can clear the clouds and see the light again, just like the sound of wind and rain outside this hall, which is gradually subsiding down, and the bright moon will eventually re-illuminate the land of the Tang Kingdom, and it will be glorious.

The officials of Yang Taizhen and his party were already panicking, and they exchanged words with each other, talking about how to show their loyalty to Li Qiuhuang and how to save their lives later.

However, there is one of the biggest questions in their minds now, that is: who is in charge of this rebellion?

Compared with them, there is a group of ministers, even though rumors are spreading in the hall, they still sit upright, their eyes are half closed, as if they are waiting for something.

Just when the whispers gradually overshadowed the sound of silk and bamboo, the eunuch's loud shout came from outside the palace gate: "General Li Qi has arrived!"
