Chapter 1 Qingyang Kingdom

Today, the righteous and the devil are incompatible, and the righteous sect respects the "four ways and one Buddha".

The four roads are the Qianyang Mountain in the east, the Qingyi faction in the west, the Yufeng Pavilion in the south, and the Chaokun Sect in the north. In the middle of the land of Shenzhou is guarded by the Donkey Kong Temple of Buddhism, because the demon sect cruelty to the people, the disaster of the world, the people are not happy, the righteous way to the safety of all living beings in the world as its own responsibility, and the demon sect has been fighting fiercely for many years, and it is constantly in war.

It is said that in the border guarded by the Western Dynasty Kunzong, there is an empire, because the empire is located on the border with Qianyang Mountain, it is called Qingyang State. Because of its relatively remote location, it can be regarded as peaceful, and the people in the empire live and work in peace and contentment.

In a remote room in the Qingyang Imperial Palace, a man holds incense in both hands and worships a statue. This statue is neither Taoist nor Buddha, neither Taoist Sanqing, nor Western gods and Buddhas. This statue is dressed as a Taoist priest, with two eyes looking straight ahead, eyes like a god, the orchid finger in his left hand is pinched, and his right hand is holding a fist-sized bead.

The man kept burning incense and worshipping, and muttered while worshipping: "Ancestor, bless Yu'er with a speedy recovery and a speedy escape from the disease." He knelt on the ground, and worshiped so earnestly that he did not hear the sound of hurried footsteps from outside the courtyard. The sound of footsteps came as they reached the door of this house, and then a man's voice came from outside the house: "Your Majesty is not well, the prince is sick again." ”

The man in the room shook his body and woke up like a dream, he quickly stood up, inserted the incense into the incense burner in front of the statue, and then turned and went out.

When the man outside the house saw the man coming out of the house, he quickly stepped forward and bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, the crown prince." The man who came out of the house was the emperor of Qingyang Kingdom. Before he could finish speaking, the emperor waved his hand at him and motioned for him to say no more. The emperor silently watched the sunset, and said to the person kneeling on the ground: "Li Xun, you get up, follow me to the Zhengyang Palace." ”

Zhengyang Palace is the sleeping palace of the crown prince of the current dynasty, and its luxury is second only to the emperor's main palace. Li Xun followed closely behind the emperor who was walking in front, and he knew that His Majesty loved this prince the most. But for some reason, when the prince was eight years old, he actually got a strange disease, which was fine in normal times, but once he got on, he became manic and murderous, and then fainted after a while. The ministers have pleaded with the emperor more than once to abolish the crown prince and re-establish the prince for the sake of the country. The emperor not only did not abolish the crown prince, but also favored him even more, and also issued a holy decree, and those who abolished the prince again would be killed.

After a while, I arrived at Zhengyang Palace, and I heard moaning from afar, mixed with the exclamations of some palace maids.

The emperor and Li Xun walked directly into the house. As soon as those palace maids saw the arrival of the emperor and General Li Xun, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted, and the emperor was in a very bad mood at this time, waved his hand, and motioned for them all to get up.

The emperor walked straight to a bed. There was a boy about ten years old lying on the bed, although his appearance was not handsome, but he could also talk about being delicate. The boy's whole body was tied with a rope the thickness of his thumb, his face was flushed, and his body was constantly trembling.

As soon as the emperor saw that the young man was tied with a rope, he was furious and said: "That dog slave dared to tie up the prince."

The palace ladies were all taken aback.

Li Xun behind him suddenly knelt down and said in a low voice: "Just now the prince fell ill, and the servants and a few subordinates subdued the prince, and the prince was tied up as a last resort, the minister deserves to die, please forgive your majesty." ”

The emperor looked at Li Xun who was kneeling on the ground and was silent for a while. Li Xun is the first fierce general of the empire, and even Li Xun needs a helper to subdue the prince, which shows the ferocity of the prince's illness. The emperor suddenly said: "Forget it, you get up, you are his future father-in-law, tie him up." Indeed, the latter words cannot be spoken. He knew the situation when the prince was sick, after all, Li Xun was not an ordinary person, he was his loyal minister in life and death, and he was the prince's future father-in-law, the general of the Zhenguo State of Qingyang State.

Li Xun was still kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise his head, and kept shouting: "The minister is guilty, the minister deserves to die."

The Emperor sighed. Cast his gaze back on the boy on the bed. Looking at the young man on the bed, his whole body trembled, gritting his teeth, as if he was suppressing something, and he was in pain. The emperor ordered: "Come on, quickly untie the crown prince." ”

Li Xun was still kneeling on the ground at the moment, and he said impatiently: "Your Majesty, the prince is still ill at the moment, I'm afraid he will"

I'm afraid it hurts me, isn't it?" the emperor interrupted him suddenly.

"Quickly untie the crown prince", the emperor's tone became more firm.

Li Xun sighed helplessly, and then said to the soldiers behind him: "Quickly untie the prince."

Several soldiers quickly stepped forward to help the prince untie him.

The prince's whole body was liberated, and the evil qi that had been suppressed for a long time burst out from his body, as if the ancient demon god had awakened.

None of the people present did not change color.

The emperor looked at the young man like a demon god and said, "Yu'er, don't do anything stupid. ”

The emperor ignored the protection of the left and right, and directly took the prince into his arms, and kept chanting: "Yu'er, my father will definitely visit famous doctors for you and help you heal."

The emperor's voice was like a thunderbolt, waking up Zhao Yu who was in a seizure. Shicai's struggle seemed to have taken Zhao Yu's strength, and he suddenly fainted and fainted.

When the emperor saw Zhao Yu fainting, he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, gently picked him up, put him on the bed, and said to Li Xun behind him: "Go and call the imperial doctor."

There is a pavilion in the mountain behind the palace of Qingyang Kingdom, which is called: Moon Pavilion. Standing in the Mochizuki Pavilion, you can see the mountains in the distance.

Mochizuki Pavilion is very simple, and the cracks on the stone pillars show its long history.

At this time, the emperor was standing in the Moon Pavilion, looking into the distance. His expression was indifferent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Li Xun was standing behind the emperor, and he knew that the emperor was not in a good mood at the moment, so he didn't make a sound to disturb. Just silently stood behind the emperor.

The emperor in front suddenly shouted, "Li Xun."

Li Xun's body was shocked, and he hurriedly said, "The minister is here." ”

The emperor sighed and said, "Accompany me to play a game of chess."

"Yes". Li Xun's body shook, and the emperor's mood was even worse than he expected. Whenever the emperor came here to play chess, it was a time when he was in an extremely bad mood.

The emperor didn't say a word, just a son and a son played chess, and Li Xun also dealt with a son. Unconsciously, three games have been played, but Li Xun has not won a game, I don't know if he is not good at chess, or he has the heart to give in.

After the first game, the emperor had no intention of continuing. He shouted, "Brother Xun."

Li Xun was startled, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "The minister doesn't dare."

The emperor glanced at him, shook his head and sighed. "Get up, there are no outsiders at the moment, and you don't have to be so restrained." The emperor slowly stood up and looked at the mountains in the distance. Li Xun slowly stood up and followed him.

The emperor looked at the mountains in the distance and said, "It's been ten years, and it's been ten years before I know it."

Li Xun looked at the figure of the empire. In a few years, the figure has aged a lot, and he sighed, as if he was sighing that the years are not forgiving. He whispered, "yes, ten years have passed before I know it."

The emperor seemed to reminisce about the past, and said: "Ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and my old bones can't last long, and I still count on Yu'er to take over my general, but Yu'er's condition is getting worse day by day, and I'm really worried that he will." He didn't say it, as if it would take a lot of courage to do so.

Li Xun said: "The prince is good in the world, and he will definitely turn evil into good fortune." ”

The emperor said, "I hope so." He spoke in such a small tone that he didn't seem to have confidence in himself. He then said: "Before Li Long Immortal died, he had told him that Yu'er's vein might have a demon god physique that is unique in ten thousand." He paused.

Li Xun didn't say anything, just stood silently in place.

The empire took a deep breath and said, "However, I really didn't expect this misfortune to befall Yu'er, hey"

Li Xun said: "Before the death of the Lilong Immortal, I mentioned the horror of the demon god's physique more than once, every time I attacked, it would be more and more powerful, I was worried that the prince would not be able to bear this pain."

The emperor said, "I'm also worried about this. The Lilong Immortal was too weak at that time, and who knew that he passed away before he could say the suppression method of this physique. Could it really be Yu'er's miserable life?"

Li Xun was silent for a while, then suddenly thought of something and raised his head suddenly.

The emperor was startled, and his body shook.

Li Xun said slowly: "It's not completely impossible."

"What?" the emperor was surprised, and then asked in surprise, "Really?"

Li Xun said: "Your Majesty, we may not have a choice. But the world is so big, maybe there are people outside the world who have a way to control the demon god's physique." He paused slightly, and then continued: "Your Majesty can post the emperor's list out, which can cure the prince's demon god cough, and the prince blames the sick, whether it is rich or poor, and all will be rewarded."

The emperor pondered for a while and said, "That's the only way, I hope." Suddenly, he remembered something again, and said, "By the way, how is Lu'er doing now?"

Li Xun was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Lu'er is all right, and now she is studying and painting at home all day long." ”

The emperor smiled: "That little girl's character, how can she sit still." ”

Li Xun saw that the emperor rarely smiled, his heart was much more relaxed, and said with a smile: "Yes, she has been noisy all day long, and she can still control her now, but I'm afraid that when she is older, we won't be able to control her." At the mention of this little girl, he himself smiled bitterly. It can be seen that this little girl is not an ordinary playful person.

The emperor said: "Lu'er is lively by nature, but let her go out to play appropriately, don't make a good daughter-in-law stupid."

Li Xunden was speechless.
