Chapter 481 The Prince's Apprenticeship
Looking at Xiao Ling's back, Zeng Xitong and the princelings were all stunned. "After a while, I made an appointment to understand what Xiao Ling meant.
Don’t treat us cultivators as fools. We understand your dirty things very well. As long as you don’t mess with us, we are too lazy to pay attention to them. But if you are not ruthless, don’t blame our immortal methods...
This is the first time, just as a warning, I lifted the stick high and fell gently; if there is another time, don’t blame me for being rude. I can really be rude at any time.
With the imperial edict in his hand, Zeng Xi's face was silence and swelling, which was mainly what he said to him.
I don’t understand, I really don’t understand... Wang Chang and the prince scratched their heads slightly.
At this time, Xiao Ling's pretentious poem had been read, and the four sentences were too short and not enough. He had to add one song: "The songs are long and leisurely, the age of twenty-four is empty, how long can life be? The tree is guarding the empty mountain for 16 years, and the Yan and Zhao are coming and going to pass by. It is better to carry a piano and sword, put on a hat and raincoat, and walk east to Penglai to sing Taoist songs."
This is what... it should be fine. I think the government and the people are strong and united, but I am alone. Even if I rack my brains and exhaust my energy, can everyone be united and moral?
The two most difficult things in the world are: one is to put other people’s money into your own pockets, and the other is to put your own thoughts into other people’s heads.
Just be able to barely maintain balance and ensure the same combat effectiveness. Wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. You should spend more time thinking about how to deal with the tasks here, and dealing with the enemies that will inevitably come in!
This is the Battle of the Gods that Zhang Boye has messed up, which is bound to keep the time and space flow around him confidential. So the first night was a little hasty and failed to recruit many people. As time goes by, more and more enemies will be reflected.
This is the difference between the home and away game between the Fen Shen Zhan.
Because the targeted Qinghuang Realm is the home court, all those who participate in this round of mission will be dragged into the mission, and you can only choose to agree or disagree.
People in nearby time and space flow are still carrying out tasks normally. Interested people can actively choose to enter the Battle of the Gods, and there is no compulsory nature.
So this night, the Qinghuang Realm, which must have defended its country, has the most people entering the Qinghuang Realm. As time goes by, the time and space flow around it have time to start preparing. Then the strength comparison will be reversed.
It’s better to think about dealing with the enemy. The court can deal with it and borrow strength when needed, it’s enough...
After pretending to be unpredictable and profound, Xiao Ling stepped on the green lion and had not yet flew out of the city wall. Prince Muran Li Mo pulled his feet and ran behind him without a few steps, shouting: "Master, please stay!"
Xiao Ling shivered when he heard this. Fortunately, he was not a fellow Taoist, please stay.
He strangled the green lion and looked back: "What's the matter with the prince?"
The prince rushed forward quickly, Xiao Ling had the right to go to the palace. He didn't. He came to Xiao Ling in panting and bowed his fists: "Taishi, although Mo was born in the royal family, he has always yearned for the life of the practitioner Yiyun Yehe... "He knelt down to Xiao Ling, "and asked the Taishi to accept Mo as his disciple and teach him the way of practice."
Yes? Xiao Ling stood there in a daze.
Is this... pretending too much? He actually shocked the prince's body and bowed to him?
He looked at the distance with his eyes squinted, and the Prime Minister Zeng Xitong was also stunned, but after a moment, he seemed to be suddenly aware. Guo Yong and Wang Chang on the side of the prince were stunned for a moment, and their eyes were slightly brighter.
In today's battle, Xiao Ling and other noble relatives in the harem have gained a foothold in the court. If the prince can take Xiao Ling as his master, he will be completely connected with this side. Moreover, the prince will not lose anything at all. Compared to his name "Mom", it is easier to call Master Xiao Ling? Anyway, they are all from the same generation.
They discussed this issue and felt that Xiao Ling, a cultivator, made a quick move and fierce move, and was not planning to stay here forever...
Even if you guess it is wrong, it will not be wrong to establish a relationship with them.
Retreat can take advantage of their current momentum, advance can numb them, improve understanding, and figure out what they are going to do.
In the blink of an eye, I understood the prince’s meaning. Wang Chang and Guo Yong were almost applauding. They could bend and supportive.
Xiao Ling smiled slightly, and he also understood that this was not bad. He spoke slowly: "The prince wants to worship my master. Are he planning to be a registered disciple or a formal disciple?"
I thought the prince would hesitate. A registered disciple is just a name, and there is no need to do anything. I told everyone that we have formed an alliance, and the meaning is there anyway. The formal disciple is serious and may even have to make a disciple ceremony, so that everyone knows that the rules of being a teacher for a lifetime and a father should also be kept.
Unexpectedly, the prince did not hesitate: "Formal, of course, a formal disciple!"
Well, this guy is either a wise man or a wise man... Xiao Ling stared at the prince in a daze.
"If you want to be a formal disciple, then I have to ask if I have two words."
"Taoshi just ask."
"On the eve of the last day, Wang Chang told me that I would assassinate Concubine Li, and asked me to cooperate. In the end, the emperor was the one he was going to assassinate. Do you know this?" Xiao Ling went straight into the vital point.
The prince answered very happily: "I knew the same as the Grand Master beforehand. When he took action, he naturally knew everything."
"So... I'm the subordinate who is in charge of the matter, so what do you think?" Xiao Ling looked at Wang Chang and Guo Yong in the distance, staring at the prince's expression.
"Concubine Li uses her beauty to seduce her father and do many things that are angry and resentful. She deserves to die. As the king of the country, her father is easily deceived by her beauty. She lets the demon concubine use her power to do so many evil things... Mo is a son of man, and cannot do the things that are wrong. If someone does it, Mo can only ignore it."
"Master hides the bodies of the dead soldiers, aren't you thinking the same as your disciples?" the prince raised his head and said.
Before he knew it, the master and his disciples were already screaming, and he was climbing along the pole so quickly. Moreover, everyone in the world said that the prince had a straight temper, and he was really... straight enough. Xiao Ling muttered in his heart.
Then the prince said again: "The reason why I am a disciple is to learn from my master is that I can learn from my master, so how can I not be deceived by those magical techniques and always stick to my original intentions. I will succeed in my studies in the future and it is best to let my father go back to the future. If I can't, at least I must be able to do it."
"If it cannot be done..." He looked back at Wang Chang and Guo Yong. "It's pretty good if someone can take action to solve the situation."
Xiao Ling's mouth opened into an egg.
It's just that this kid is stupid, his way of thinking makes sense...
But he is not stupid? He can say that he can only think about things and say them out of his mouth. Don’t you know that some things can only be thought about and cannot be said?
Perhaps... As the prince, no one has taught him?
Xiao Ling smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, I have accepted your apprentice."
It's decided like this, anyway, it was a win-win deal.
However, it is a big deal for the prince to become a disciple, so of course he can't be so careless. A luxurious apprenticeship banquet will definitely not be able to escape. But it doesn't matter to Xiao Ling. If the prince wants to become a disciple, someone will prepare for it.
After leaving the palace, Xiao Ling still went straight to Sifang Pavilion. Although Gu Shangshu's Mansion had given him and the contestants, it was burned and bombed twice, and it was in a mess. It was still necessary to count the supplies. It would be impossible to complete it in ten days and half a month. It was more convenient to stay in Sifang Pavilion during this period, and some people cooked and some cleaned the room.
Everyone was waiting. As soon as Xiao Ling arrived, he inquired about the matter of going to the palace today, teased each other and started talking about the serious matters.
There are so many serious things to do, first of all, the investigation and sorting of information at present.
People in the world of Fengshen Romance do not know. People in the Qinghuang world basically know it.
Although the characters such as Jiang Ziya, Bo Yikao, Wen Wang, Wu Wang, Bi Gan, Huang Feihu, including the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb and Yin Jiao Yin Hong may not necessarily correspond to this world, their origins can be a reference.
Jiang Ziya represents Luo Tuo's unsuccessful strategist;
Bo Yikao, King Wen, and King Wu represent the power of foreign countries or officials of this dynasty who may have a deep hatred with the court;
Bi Gan, Huang Feihu represents the officials who were originally loyal in the court but were rebellious because of the incompetence of the king;
There is no need to say about the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb. This has been solved and represents the harem forces that are causing trouble;
Yin Hong, Yin Jiao, is the crown prince.
Oh, it's different.
Yin Hong was the son of Empress Jiang. Because his mother was killed, he was full of hatred for King Zhou and Yao Ji, but the prince was the son of the former queen. The former queen died early. The emperor was not stupid at that time. The queen who was killed by Concubine Li was the second queen, not the prince's mother.
The queen was born in a Shandong family and had two sons and one daughter. They were all implicated because of the queen. According to the information found, she lost her trace on the road to exile, which is worth noting.
For these all kinds of people, the cultivators temporarily screened out dozens of worthy objects through the imperial channels for monitoring, including some famous but frustrated literati who were imprisoned by the emperor for some inexplicable reasons.
The plan derived from this is Kaienke.
Although the name of the emperor who established a new queen was not enough, it was almost the same as making do.
A literati can give the literati an extra chance. Do a little trick in the literati, so that those who are recognized as talented but cannot pass the literati, or who are ridiculed by current affairs or offended certain adults, can not only capture the hearts of literati, but also eliminate possible hidden dangers, killing two birds with one stone.
The second step is to rehabilitate a large-scale rehabilitation.
Anyway, the emperor is under control now, and he can't change anything he has to say. The emperor doesn't care at all, nor can he care about these things. In his name, he released all the ministers who were arrested in prison for inexplicable or famous reasons. The officials who can restore their posts will be repaid and those who can make compensation will be compensated.
As long as you have done enough face and effort, I think Jiang Ziya, Bi Gan, Huang Feihu and others are not good, so I will submit it to the treason.
Of course, everything cannot be flat, and we still have to be principled.
If there are people like King Wen of Zhou, An Lushan, Shi Siming, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, Huang Chao and Li Zicheng in prison, they should focus on monitoring and investigation.
Related to this, all the princes and governors, either scammers scattered among the people, robbers and bandits who have gathered in the mountains, or foreign enemies that are beyond the reach... are all included in the surveillance scope.
The 3,000 cultivators sent to various places to arrive one after another through the official report from the court and the relevant information collected by secretly spy on the country. They collected the information on the spot and summarized and analyzed it.
So far, we are still in the stage of gathering and sorting out intelligence.
However, the industry is also classified into categories. According to the methods of prisoners, bandits, princes, and foreign enemies, some targets have been selected and their relationship map has been established. The next step will be to focus on collecting intelligence and selecting additional targets.
These are mainly done by Peng Shuai and a group of senior executives in the team. The police station has encountered some cases of case intelligence analysis and summary, and Peng Taibao still mastered the basic methods.
In addition to collecting and sorting out intelligence and analyzing the overall situation, there is another task, which is to investigate and track the whereabouts of the money of Shangshu Gu’s family.
Although the money has disappeared and the confidant of Gu Shangshu's family has disappeared, such a large amount of money will definitely not be passed on in one go, but it must be a long-lasting job.
There will inevitably be many clues left. Even if the confidant disappeared, the adopted son and adopted son of the concubine in the mansion, and all the abandoned servants, will definitely grasp some situations, although they may not realize it themselves.
This requires great patience to ask and enough wisdom to connect those clues that are half-sized.
The main force investigating this matter was from the Three Laws and Tianjing Prefecture. The extraordinary person was represented by Lin Qiuran and followed up on the matter throughout the process.
In addition, the first batch of cultivators who set out yesterday to explore the path. They had arrived at the nearest prefectures and counties at a fast speed and sent back the first batch of cultivators who came to enter were mostly sects and had no lack of contact with each other.
Some people have the soul sense, some have written words through the water mirror method, some have high-end paper crane talismans and paper, and some have low-end pigeons to pass on their books.
According to the description, along the way, he encountered bandits, robbers, scammers, refugees, and even several teams, who were involved in large-scale fighting among locals. The reality was that the situation among the people in Tianjing City was quite unoptimistic.
There were also several reports of other cultivators who were purposefully ambushed, and there were cases of reduction in personnel or even the entire team of missing persons. They were immediately marked and issued an order to investigate through the imperial court through the open channels of the court.
However, all the open contradictions and all the anxiety among the people can ultimately be simplified into one word.
Too dry!
The crops were not harvested, so bandits and refugees rose everywhere.
It's too dry, so the people are fighting for the only water source.
If you want to solve this problem, all measures to capture the hearts of the people and save the people's expectations are useless, and popularity cannot be used as a food.
Everything has to return to that theme to solve the drought. (To be continued...)
