From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 195 The Emperor observes the weather and ties a carrot to Emperor Qing
Li Chengqian could clearly sense that Emperor Qing was not in a good mood.

It’s very likely that the meal he had some time ago stimulated him.

What's going on? I haven't even given the order yet, and you, the prince, have already gathered your brothers together to discuss matters. Why don't you tell me the result after the discussion?
You don't take me seriously, do you?
Yes, after that meal, none of the brothers took the initiative to report to Emperor Qing.

So until now, he could only judge what conclusions these brothers came to from this meal based on their subsequent actions.

This made him very dissatisfied.

Li Chengqian clearly felt that his tone was filled with an air of wanting to find fault and an urge to give up.

After a moment's thought, he said, "No matter how difficult it is, we must conquer Northern Qi. This will benefit us."

"Unifying the world certainly has its benefits, but if the price to pay is too high, it's better to slow down the pace."

"Father, it's been a long time since you became a Grandmaster, right?"

Emperor Qing raised his brows.

"Why, you, the Martial Saint, would you like some guidance?"

"The technique you practice is just like Fan Xian's, incomplete. I've already helped Fan Xian perfect a version, but you've already mastered it by accident and achieved Grandmaster status. You've entered another realm. The limitations of the technique can no longer restrain you, but they also limit your upper limit."

"In other words, this martial arts technique is indeed a trap!" Emperor Qing's face changed, revealing an expression of "as expected".

"It's not a trap, it's an imperfection."

Li Chengqian said, "The Grandmaster level has only appeared in the last twenty years. Of the four great Grandmasters in the world, except for Grandmaster Ye, the rest, including you, all practiced the techniques of the Temple. These techniques of the Temple have probably never been practiced by anyone else, so no one knows how effective they are, not even Ye Qingmei knows."

"You haven't met Ye Qingmei, but you seem to know him very well!"

Emperor Qing looked at Li Chengqian, his tone revealing a hint of doubt and confusion.

"I don't know Ye Qingmei, but I know she doesn't know martial arts." Li Chengqian said confidently, "I learned from Ye Liuyun. I master Si Gu Jian's swordsmanship and Tian Yi Dao's mental skills. I've also seen the techniques you and Fan Xian practiced. I understand the techniques of the four great masters. With my talent, I naturally know what these techniques are after reading them. But I understand them, but Ye Qingmei, who doesn't know martial arts, certainly doesn't understand them."

Emperor Qing was speechless.

You wouldn't know it if you didn't tell me, but it turns out to be true. This kid started out by learning Liuyun Qi, then exchanged Wolf Peach for Tianyi Dao's skills, learned Badao Qi from Fan Xian, and finally destroyed Jianlu and got Si Gu Jian's swordsmanship. It can be said that he has combined the martial arts of the four great masters in the world into one. There has never been such a person before.

"I can see that these techniques are experimental, just like how I went astray a few years ago. You three are very lucky to have made it through. But it's precisely because these three techniques were just recently developed and are still incomplete that the path forward is uncertain. You three are all stuck at the Grandmaster level, unable to make any progress."

"The three of us, so Ye Liuyun is different?"

"Among the four great masters, the only one I admire is Ye Liuyun. The three of you are lucky to have made it. You have been doing nothing but relying on the secret manuals that came out of the temple. Without anyone to teach you, it is difficult for you to make further progress. Ye Liuyun is different. Although he is a mortal, if he is given enough time, he can go further than you."

These blunt words further worsened Emperor Qing's already bad mood, but he had to admit that Li Chengqian's words made sense. Of the four great masters, only Ye Liuyun had forged his own path; the other three had all followed a map. While they ultimately succeeded, they were completely lost as to how to proceed. "What are you trying to say by telling me all this? To show you're a genius, that you're amazing, that you can go even further?"

"I can help you go one step further." Li Chengqian smiled. "Father, do you know why I am a genius? Why am I so keen on spreading my military power throughout the world? Why am I so eager to unify the world now?"

Emperor Qing stared at him intently, his eyes flickering and his heartbeat gradually quickening.

Could it be that this guy has a change of heart and wants to tell me his secret?
impossible.

This kid's personality is very similar to mine, how could he possibly share his secrets, unless...

"Actually, I wasn't a genius at first. I just accidentally discovered a huge secret."

Li Chengqian didn't let him guess too much and took out a thin booklet from his arms. Recently, he carried a lot of booklets with him.

"This is……"

【Explanation of the Imperial Supreme World Sutra】

Looking at the words on the cover of the booklet, he recognized every one of them, but when they were put together he had no idea what they meant.

"It's not that I didn't like reading when I was young, I just didn't like reading the books that the civil servants asked me to read. I like reading miscellaneous books. As you know, there are all kinds of miscellaneous books in the secret library of the palace, not only from Daqing, but also miscellaneous books from the West. In those miscellaneous books, I found some meditation methods in Western magic. Out of curiosity, I tried them."

"and then?"

"Then I succeeded. Not only that, I also made an unexpected discovery by combining it with the numerology book in the secret library."

"An unexpected discovery?"

"Yes, it's the art of reading qi. Combining various numerology books with meditation techniques, I discovered I could read qi. It's not just ordinary qi, it's destiny. I can see the destiny of some people, even my own, the destiny of the Crown Prince of Daqing." Li Chengqian raised his chin slightly, a look of pride on his face. "After discovering I could read destiny, my interest in numerology books increased dramatically, and I discovered how to use destiny."

"I've discovered that using Qi to assist me can make my mind clearer, faster, and smarter. Sometimes I even fall into a state similar to enlightenment. What others see as difficult problems are no longer difficult for me. Whether it's martial arts or other things, I learn quickly, can apply what I've learned to other situations, and often have brilliant ideas. This is the magic of Qi."

"I am the crown prince. Besides my own luck, I also have the luck of the nation, which makes me even more powerful."

"I have recently been spreading martial arts classics and spreading martial arts throughout the world. Not only have I gained national fortune, but I have also gained martial fortune. The blessing of martial fortune on the way of martial arts is far beyond imagination."

"This Imperial Supreme World Sutra is a method I've summarized to sense the destiny and utilize the national destiny. You'll know once you try it." Li Chengqian pointed to the booklet and said, "After using it, you'll find out how much help the national destiny can be for people of our status. That's why I need more national destiny. Unifying the world is imperative. Not only does the world need to be unified, but it also needs to be governed well. The more prosperous the national destiny, the more benefits we will gain. That's why I told you before that Daqing will not only be a dynasty, an empire, but also a divine dynasty. We are the gods."

"You are the emperor, the Son of Heaven. You possess a much stronger national destiny than I do. As long as you can effectively utilize the national destiny, the Grandmaster realm will be nothing more than a small pebble on the roadside for you, and you can easily step over it."

After saying this, Li Chengqian raised his head, looked at Emperor Qing with a burning gaze and said, "Father, we need more luck, the more the better."
