The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

The emperor of the previous dynasty was quite legendary.

"Tang Jiuyun definitely wasn't called this back then. At that time, the previous dynasty was already unstable, and the imperial family was in turmoil. The former crown prince had been assassinated, and the other two princes were missing. Their king of a different surname was about to march his army into the capital. It was a turbulent time."

Lu Zhaoling and the others entered the palace next door and sat down to talk in detail.

Madam Sheng San also went to make tea for Lu Zhaoling.

The Emperor Emeritus continued, "This Tang Jiuyun was originally the least qualified to sit on the throne, because his mother was originally a young nun who practiced Buddhism with her hair uncut. However, she caught the eye of the Emperor at the time and was forced to do evil things in the temple."

Lu Zhaoling frowned.

The emperor of the previous dynasty was really courting death by forcibly defiling a practitioner, and doing it in a temple.

It is not surprising that the previous dynasty was in turmoil at that time.

"But at that time, the previous dynasty's royal family was in chaos. In the helplessness and chaos, Tang Jiuyun was forcibly pushed onto the throne. As soon as he ascended the throne, he immediately issued a series of decrees, which were considered quite correct at the time."

The retired emperor gave Tang Jiuyun a relatively positive evaluation.

"Unfortunately, he couldn't handle the situation alone. The old ministers who had pushed him to the throne failed to protect him, and those old ministers were killed by rebels. No one carried out Tang Jiuyun's orders. He had never imagined that he would one day sit in that position, so he didn't cultivate his own power."

"During those forty-nine days, he truly wanted to save the dynasty, but his will was insufficient. After being betrayed once again by those close to him, Tang Jiuyun lost hope. He willfully passed the throne to the youngest prince and absconded himself."

Lu Zhaoling was dumbfounded when he heard this.

She thought something happened later, but it turned out that Tang Jiuyun ran away by himself?

"He just ran away like that?"

"Yes," the Emperor also sighed, "Furthermore, after running away, he immediately announced that he had established a sect, changed his name to Tang Jiuyun, and wanted to become a cultivator. He also said that if anyone from the royal family tried to drag him into royal disputes again, they would die miserably."

"Puch."

Lu Zhaoling couldn't help laughing again.

No, is Tang Jiuyun such a childish person?

"Did those people from the previous dynasty really believe his curse?"

"At the time, uprisings broke out across the country, and no one cared about him. He even swore a solemn oath never to return to the capital and ceased to be a member of the imperial family, so naturally, no one paid any attention to him. Afterwards, there was no news of him anymore. By then, no one even remembered what sect he had founded."

The Emperor sighed and said, "These are also recorded in the history books. Now it seems that the sect founded by Tang Jiuyun is the Nine-Layered Sect?"

"I just don't know how he did it. This Nine-Layered Sect has really continued to be passed down? And now he has actually become the head of some hidden and mysterious sect? It's really amazing."

"So, the current leader of the Jiucengmen is very likely a descendant of Tang Jiuyun?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

"I don't know. He might just be his disciple. Maybe the history books don't remember it clearly, and there's no mention of Tang Jiuyun actually being a person who understands the mystical arts."

The emperor was quite surprised.

When they read the records of the previous dynasty, they thought that Tang Jiuyun was just hiding and surviving.

Unexpectedly, the sect he founded was actually passed down.

"They want the Samsara Fruit, saying it's for the benefit of the people of the world," Madam Sheng San brought tea to Lu Zhaoling and couldn't help but ask, "What are they going to do with the Samsara Fruit after they take it back?"

"I am also very curious."

Lu Zhaoling drank the tea and said, "After returning, find some time to visit the Hidden Mysterious Sect."

She really wanted to see how many people there were in Yinxuanmen now and what their abilities were.

"However, I am willing to let these people go because, judging by their facial features, they haven't taken any lives and haven't committed any serious crimes."

Otherwise, she wouldn't let them go so easily.

She secretly drew a tracking talisman on Qi Shu's body, so that she could find him at any time when she wanted to look for him, no matter where they were hiding in the Yinxuan Sect.

Qi Shu himself didn't know.

"Let's go back to the Judge's Hall."

After finishing the things here, Lu Zhaoling thought about his senior brother's affairs and his uncle's life, and still felt that he had to deal with it quickly.

When he arrived at the Judge's Hall, Lu Zhaoling saw a long line outside the hall.

"Hiss, have all those ghosts in Yama's Palace come over here to line up?"

There are so many ghosts, how long will it take for the senior brother to deal with them?

Lu Zhaoling turned her head and looked at Madam Sheng San.

"Master, what's wrong?" Madam Sheng San was frightened by her gaze and took a step back.

"Grandma Sheng, you're really amazing now. You've even joined Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai in deceiving me."

Lu Zhaoling's revenge came very suddenly.

She sighed heavily, "Alas, I knew that no matter how deep our friendship was, no matter how much we shared in hardship, it could not compare to the Netherworld that allowed you to become an official."

Madam Sheng San's face was frozen.

"Master Lu, no, no, I never thought of lying to you, I just..."

"You are just like Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, thinking that this is your Netherworld's business. I am just an outsider. I have no right to know anything that happens in your Netherworld, and I can't control you. I know this."

Lu Zhaoling lowered her eyes, looking very sad.

When the retired emperor saw her like this, he knew that she was going to fool Madam Sheng San again, but he couldn't say anything. After all, she was his daughter-in-law.

He must stand on her side!

Besides, Xiao Sheng was indeed avoiding Lu Zhaoling, which was too much.

"That's not what I meant, Master Lu. I'm definitely your best friend. I only met the two envoys, Black and White, later. How could they possibly surpass you?"

Madam Sheng San was anxious and hurried to explain.

"Don't try to trick me. I originally thought that since we've known each other for so long, our relationship would be better, but reality slapped me hard in the face. You and Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai wanted to hide things from me, avoid me, and not tell me things, leaving me foolishly in the dark. I can understand..."

Lu Zhaoling looked really sad.

Hearing her heart-wrenching words, Madam Sheng San was extremely anxious.

"Master Lu, I really didn't mean to hide it from you. They said that you couldn't remember anything about the First Xuanmen, and it must be related to Lord Yama. Moreover, if you knew this, you might turn Yama's Palace upside down. If Lord Yama didn't come back and you remembered the past again, if you couldn't get over it, no one could stop you, so..."

Madam Sheng San covered her mouth and widened her eyes.

How did she say that?

These are the things that the Black and White Envoys emphasized must never be said.

Lu Zhaoling raised his eyebrows and looked at her steadily.

Madam Sheng San stepped back subconsciously.

"I, I didn't say anything, did I?"
