Volume 2 The world is so big, I want to see it Chapter 82 The Emperor's Deal
Mrs. Xu's heart was slightly relieved when she heard this, fortunately, it wasn't Xu Qinghui, the little rabbit cub, who did anything ridiculous, but at this time she went to the Sword Pavilion? Mrs. Xu thought for a moment, it happened that Luoyang was a little unpeaceful for a while, and it was okay to leave, so she nodded lightly and wanted to agree.
But I heard Xu Qinghui say categorically: "No!"
Zhu'er looked at Xu Qinghui a little blankly, and said in her heart, didn't she say that she shouldn't be rejected? After thinking about it, she quickly took out the brand in her arms and handed it to Mrs. Xu and said, "This is the identity nameplate sent by Master Xu, and what I said is true and there is no falsehood." ”
Mrs. Xu took the nameplate and looked at it for a moment, nodded lightly, and then turned her head to look at Xu Qinghui.
Xu Qinghui took a light breath and said with a wry smile: "I didn't suspect that Sister Zhu'er lied to me, and it wasn't that I didn't want to go to the Sword Pavilion to learn art. It's just that now that Crimson's whereabouts are unknown, I can't just leave here, at least until she's safe and sound. ”
Mrs. Xu stopped talking, Xu Qinghui shook her head lightly and said: "Mother, you have asked me to cherish the scarlet since I was a child, and now I am also enlightened, you don't need to persuade me anymore." ”
Mrs. Xu sighed, her eyes were a little complicated, both a little relieved and a little worried, after thinking about it, she could only nod and say to Zhu'er: "You also heard, since Qinghui doesn't want to go, I can't force it, so you can reply truthfully, and then I will personally go to see that person to apologize." ”
Although Zhu'er was a little anxious in her heart, it was inconvenient to say more, but she was a little careful to remember the situation in the courtyard again before nodding and withdrawing.
Seeing Zhu'er leaving, Xu Qinghui also calmed down from the joy of being blessed by misfortune, turned his head to Yu Liang and said, "Since I'm fine, I won't stay here, I've already said everything I should have said about the assassin that day, and I also want to track down this person, if you have any news, please tell me." ”
Yu Liang opened his mouth and wanted to say that although your strength has increased dramatically now, I am afraid that there is still no chance of winning against the strength shown by that person, but thinking that Xu Qinghui seems to have matured a lot, he just nodded lightly and said, "Be careful." ”
Xu Qinghui clenched his fists slightly, and then pulled Mrs. Xu away.
Li Qing originally wanted to discuss with Yu Liang about what he said, but recently Yu Liang has had a lot of trivial matters and has not been able to find a chance to speak, fortunately, it is not without gain, at least he has seen many of Yu Liang's strange skills, and his original expectations for Yu Liang are not disappointed. It's just that the situation in Luoyang seems to have changed a little recently, so he can't get out of his way, and this time he came to join in this lively witness, which is already busy, so he also said goodbye and left at this time. But Wu Yong made up his mind to follow Yu Liang because of the previous agreement with Yu Liang, and he must wait until that person appears. The little monk Huiyuan was a little entangled, he seemed to be free to leave now, but should he leave or not?
-------------------------------------
Three days have passed in the blink of an eye, and since Zhou Quan heard that Xu Qinghui didn't plan to go with him, he sighed with a sad face all day long, and even had the idea of forcibly taking him away. If it weren't for the trouble in the shadows around this kid, Zhou Quan might really give it a try.
The one who followed in the dark has been replaced by osmanthus, since he heard Wei Gang say that he had seen a woman with some suspicions that day, and under his careful questioning, it turned out to be a woman in a green building, and the osmanthus who could swing out of the water secretly looked at it, and he was a little suspicious and suspicious that this elm pimple had opened his mind and did something dirty behind his back, so he changed shifts with him, and she followed Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Xu has been staying at home, and she has become behind Xu Qinghui, who has been secretly following around like a headless fly.
Xu Qinghui has been trying to find some clues, but he can't find any clues in the whole of Luoyang, and he is naturally no exception, although he is a little anxious but helpless.
Yu Liang had been quiet for a few days since he sent Xu Qinghui away, so he took advantage of his leisure in the past few days to supplement the materials and make a few new Qiankun talismans for self-defense. It's just that this thing has been verified by Xu Qinghui, and it is not so easy to use against the great cultivators of the upper realm who can achieve their own small world, so they only made a few sheets. On the contrary, the process of connecting Xu Qinghui's broken arm gave him some experience, not only did he make great progress in how to control his mind finely, but also had a clearer understanding of the arm vein, which invisibly made the fist more round. And Wu Yong and the little monk were also quiet and had no sense of existence, which made Yu Liang's small courtyard really feel a little peaceful.
It's just that Luoyang City at this time is really not peaceful.
It can even be said that it has become a pot of porridge.
It is said that for this matter, the emperor and the old general Sima even had a big quarrel, although the specific content is unknown, but from the fact that the Sima family has been closed since that day, you can faintly smell a sense of mountain rain coming. The people of Luoyang, who were still lively and jubilant a few days ago, were also a little panicked at this time, and there was a sense of the sky falling. Although I didn't dare to oppose it loudly, there were a lot of discussions in secret. Although there are many people who have received the favor of Concubine Yu, more people still can't understand the intention of leaving the emperor to do this. Some old people are still a little worried, don't they want to follow the example of the Great Zhou, but aren't they afraid of causing a big chaos that will affect the whole world again?
And the envoys such as Li Qing, who came to greet the ceremony, were also a little suspicious, this move was too abnormal, and I am afraid that such a succession ceremony would take several months or even half a year to prepare at every turn, but the emperor announced that he would succeed to the throne ceremony in just over a month, is it a little too anxious? Li Qing couldn't help but think a little worriedly, could it be that there was something unusual on Longhu Mountain that was known to the emperor?
Yu Liang was also stunned for a long time when he first heard the news, and the Qingping in his impression was still the little girl who struggled to break out of the carriage window and looked at him with a look of hope, and he could still faintly remember the frightened appearance of her hand on her head at that time, and the long figure pulling in the dark street. I can't help but feel a little lost, and I don't know if I've missed something. Just looking at Yiyi, who was running around with a novel face, he smiled and shook off those mixed thoughts.
Of course, Yu Liang didn't actually gain nothing in such a seemingly idle day, at least through the investigation in various places in the secret, it was learned that the guy who assassinated him may be from the same source as the person who attacked Xu Qinghui, but almost the entire Luoyang has been rummaged, and there is still no trace of them. Yu Liang narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought, "Actually, there is still a place that I haven't looked for." Yu Liang's eyes were a little deep and looked at a certain place, which was the residence of the emperor, the palace.
It is not accurate to say that it is the residence of the emperor, although the emperor is the owner of the palace, but there are actually many other people living in it, and in the deepest part of the palace, there is a "person".
The highest place is naturally the stargazing pavilion, and the people who live in it are naturally the national teachers who have left the country.
The Stargazing Pavilion welcomed another guest today, or the host.
He is the master of the country, and naturally he is also the master of this stargazing pavilion.
The national teacher didn't have that lazy appearance today, but he wasn't very serious, but he stared at the emperor standing in front of him with a complicated expression.
Emperor Li's expression was extremely pale, and he stood in front of the national teacher with a withered but extremely tall expression, looking down at him silently.
The national teacher stared for a moment before he sighed lightly and said, "Have you really decided to do this?"
The emperor was silent, but that determined look had already said everything.
The national teacher said with some doubts: "Do you understand that once you do this, you will become a sinner for the ages, and even the entire country may be buried for it." ”
The Emperor Li pursed the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "Aren't you just waiting for this day? How long have you been waiting? Hundreds of years? Thousands of years?"
The national teacher's expression froze, and he said a little stunned: "Yes, I've waited too long, and it's because I've waited too long that I can't believe that you will really do this." Violating the ancestral rites and teachings, is it really worth it?"
The smile on the corner of the emperor's mouth faded, some thought about it silently, and some sighed lightly: "Yes, is it worth it?"
But he said decisively: "What if it's worth it? I once chose the wrong one and regretted it for a lifetime, and this time even if I made a mistake again, I won't regret it for a lifetime, so I gave it a try." ”
The national teacher stared at the Emperor again, as if he wanted to see through his resolute countenance, the true thoughts hidden in his heart. The emperor looked at him very calmly and came back.
After a long time, the national teacher finally confirmed that his determination to leave the emperor was unshakable, and asked with a slight bow and some hesitation: "Are you too impatient, the Dragon and Tiger Mountain has been quiet and a little abnormal, and no one has come down the mountain to respond, I am always worried that there will be any accidents, maybe the Great Heavenly Master has not ...... yet."
Emperor Lihuang interrupted the question of the national teacher very rudely and said: "That's my business, it's not that I'm too impatient, but I'...... It won't last long, I'm going to die, is it possible that you want to miss this opportunity, and if you wait like this for an indefinite period of time, maybe there will be someone who can't think about it like me in the next thousand years?" Emperor Lihuang smiled self-deprecatingly and continued: "I have done everything I promised you, and if I can't do it, someone will naturally do it for me, but you don't forget your promise, don't forget what you promised me." ”
After saying this, the emperor turned around and strode away.
