Chapter 1028: Chance Encounter with the Prime Minister
After entering Yunbo City, Lin San asked the pedestrians about the whereabouts of the National Teacher's Mansion, and after inquiring clearly, Lin San strode towards the National Teacher's Mansion, at this time, Lin San still hid his true cultivation to avoid being noticed.
In fact, strictly speaking, the National Teacher's Mansion and the Imperial Palace are connected, in other words, the National Teacher's Mansion is part of the Imperial Palace, the emperor of Hualan Country is very respectful of the National Teacher, and usually treats each other with the courtesy of the teacher, at the beginning, the National Teacher Dongfang Baimei did not live in the palace, but lived in the mountains dozens of miles away from the palace, and later several assassins broke into the palace to assassinate the emperor, and the guards at that time could not stop it at all. Later, in order to better protect the emperor, Dongfang Baimei moved directly to live in the palace, and the emperor specially set aside a house for the national teacher Dongfang Baimei, and gave a plaque of "National Teacher's Mansion", and since then, the national teacher Dongfang Baimei has lived in the palace.
There are such rumors in Hualan Country in private, saying that Dongfang Baimei is the emperor of Hualan Kingdom, and even the emperor has to listen to Dongfang Baimei's dispatch, the rumors may be a bit exaggerated, but it is not difficult to see that Dongfang Baimei's power in Hualan Country is indeed extraordinary.
Lin San soon came to the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion, and just wanted to break in, he saw several people walking out of the National Teacher's Mansion, Lin San glanced at it, his expression suddenly became strange, and his body flashed, and he hid in an alley.
There were a few men who came out of the National Teacher's Mansion, and the leading man was wearing an official robe, looking very majestic, and when he walked out of the gate, the man in the official robe stopped, turned to a middle-aged guard beside him and said: "Commander Chen, just send it here, I'll visit the National Teacher another day!"
The middle-aged guard nodded and said politely: "Welcome to the prime minister again!" Listening to the title of the middle-aged guard, the man in the official robe turned out to be the prime minister of Hualan Kingdom!
At this time, a sedan chair was carried over.
The man in the official robe said hello and got into the sedan chair, and more than a dozen guards carried the sedan chair and left the National Teacher's Mansion.
After the sedan chair walked away, the middle-aged guard led his men back to the National Teacher's Mansion.
......
in a sedan chair.
Wu Yinghao closed his eyes slightly, secretly thinking to himself, don't look at Wu Yinghao is the prime minister of Hualan Country, but the power in his hands is very small, because all the rights in his hands were taken away by the national teacher Dongfang Baimei, Wu Yinghao is now at best an ornament.
"Alas......" Wu Yinghao sighed softly and said to himself: "I am really a wretch. ”
A breeze blew, and there was suddenly an extra man beside Wu Yinghao.
Wu Yinghao was startled, and subconsciously wanted to shout.
"If you want to die, just shout!" said the man who broke into the sedan chair coldly.
"Uh......" Wu Yinghao's words that he wanted to shout suddenly stuck in his throat, his face trembled several times, and he said in a trembling voice: "You...... What do you want to do......"
The man pouted: "Prime Minister Wu, you won't forget me, will you?"
"Huh?" Wu Yinghao was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the man up and down, feeling a little familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it: "You...... I seem to have seen you somewhere......"
"Prime Minister Wu Cheng is really a noble man who forgets things!" The man smiled faintly: "More than ten years ago, I went to your mansion to hunt down a great monk...... In order to heal the wounds of that great monk, you also captured a lot of innocent children......"
"It's you!!" Wu Yinghao finally remembered: "You...... How do you ......"
"You don't have to be afraid, I have no malicious intent!" The man waved his hand: "My name is Lin San, this time I am passing through Hualan Country, and I am not here to trouble you!"
After listening to Lin San's words, Wu Yinghao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "Immortal Master Lin, I haven't done anything bad all these years......
"I know, along the way, I heard a lot of ordinary people praise you for being an honest official!" Lin San nodded.
"Yes, after being warned by the Immortal Master, I will never dare to do bad things again!" Wu Yinghao said flatteringly.
"Prime Minister Wu, I saw you coming out of the National Teacher's Mansion just now?" Lin San suddenly changed the subject.
Wu Yinghao was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Yes, I went to ask the national teacher for peace!"
"Please be safe?" Lin San frowned: "The official positions of the prime minister and the national teacher are equal, why do you want to go to the national teacher to ask for peace?"
"Alas......" Wu Yinghao sighed: "Don't mention it...... I, the prime minister, now exist in name only, and I am simply an ornament...... All the rights in my hands are taken away by the national teacher, and in order to keep the wealth in front of me and the safety of my family, I can only pretend to be my grandson, come to the national teacher every day to ask for peace, and pat myself on the back!"
"No, right!" Lin San's expression was very surprised: "You just watched the power in your hands being taken away, and you didn't resist at all?"
"Resist?" Wu Yinghao smiled bitterly: "If the national teacher were an ordinary person, I might really resist, but ...... The national teacher is an immortal cultivator, and he is also an immortal cultivator with advanced cultivation, how can I, a mortal, dare to resist! If the national teacher wants to kill me, it is simply as easy as a hand!"
Lin San was silent, what Wu Yinghao said was right, he was an ordinary mortal who really couldn't fight against the national teacher.
"Don't hide it from Immortal Master Lin, I'm ready to return to my hometown recently, and I don't want to stay in Yunbo City!" Wu Yinghao said helplessly.
"Say goodbye to the old and return to your hometown?" Lin San smiled: "You are only in your fifties, right, so young to return to your hometown?"
Wu Yinghao shook his head: "I can't help it, I can't always pretend to be a grandson...... If I offend the national teacher one day, the lives of my family will be over!" "Wu Yinghao is an ambitious person, of course he is unwilling to return to his hometown, but in order to survive, in order to keep his family, he can only choose to return to his hometown!
The life of a dignified prime minister is so helpless, and the lives of ordinary people are even more difficult and helpless, and this society itself is so cruel and ruthless!
Seeing Wu Yinghao's dejected appearance, the corners of Lin San's mouth curled, and he laughed: "Wu Yinghao, let me ask you a question, if that national teacher dies, will you still choose to return to your hometown?"
"What, how could the national teacher die...... Uh......" Wu Yinghao suddenly thought of something, his eyes suddenly widened, and his voice began to tremble: "That...... Immortal Master Lin, what do you mean ......"
Lin San smiled and said without concealment: "I can help you get rid of that national teacher!
"Ah?!" Wu Yinghao was suddenly stupid in his seat, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he swallowed his saliva with difficulty: "Immortal Master Lin...... You don't have ...... Kidding me......"
Lin San's face was a little displeased: "Do you look like I'm joking?"
