"May I congratulate you for breaking through the inner demons and advancing to the next level." Although Li Chongmao gritted his teeth, there was a smile in his eyes, and he was a little helpless.

Xi this person is not only safe, but also has even more skill, I am afraid that there are few opponents on this journey of martial arts.But he was also helpless because the few hidden children he had cultivated with great difficulty were all compromised by this.

Qi Jin and his great kindness are no less than Xie Yunliu, if he himself had not died in the hands of the pursuers back then, after he went to Dongpu, he told his sons to be still alive, otherwise he didn't know if he would really be as good as before. They themselves are generally eager for quick success and full of revenge.

He dare not tell Xie Yunliu some things, but he has no reservations with this person in front of him.Yun Liu is too upright, passionate, and loyal. He is worthy of a generation of heroes in the arena. However, in the eyes of politicians, such a person is just a puppet, an insignificant figure.He himself was already deeply involved, so he didn't want Xie Yunliu to be involved in this muddy water.These years in Dongpu, he lived in fear, and the more he distanced himself from Xie Yunliu, it was just to keep that person better.Simply, there was still a ray of light when he was in the most pain, so that he would not be struggling in the dark.

In the third year of going to Dongying, Xie Yunliu received an unsigned letter. The letter was very strange and incomplete, perhaps not incomplete. It was just a few blunt words put together, and the handwriting was also very strange. It seemed to be Children learn characters in general.

In the next few days, they received several such notes one after another, a dozen or so in a row.It was Li Chongmao who was just fiddling with those notes out of boredom and discovered that these chaotic words were also regular. The overlapping of several notes turned out to be a text message, a text message from his hometown.And the person who wrote the letter was Qi Jin.

At the beginning, it was just asking about safety, and later it also mentioned the current situation of Datang.Occasionally, Xie Yunliu retreated, and Li Chongmao replied on his behalf, asking about the situation of his family, and it really let him know that he still has children in the world.

Afterwards, Li Chongmao seemed to be obsessed with sending a letter every two months, and gradually the two became acquainted.

This time I went back to the Central Plains Ito’s house to use his title of abolished emperor as an excuse to attract the attention of the imperial court, and then use the matter of Chunyang Palace’s reconciliation with Xie Yunliu to control Qi Jin, who is now well-known in the martial arts court and the public, so that they can enter the Central Plains Open the door wide open.

Although Li Chongmao hated his throne being taken away, he would not allow others to get involved.As soon as I received the news, I notified Qi Jin, and the scene between the two of them was hidden from everyone.

"Thank you this time."

"You are not afraid that I will do the real thing, if I didn't explain the medicine in the sachet."

"You won't, I believe you."

I believe you, three simple words, but Li Chongmao stood there as if dazed, with mixed feelings in his heart.

It's not that he didn't think about holding Qi Jin in his hand when he first learned about it.Maybe in the eyes of many people, he is just Zixuzi of Chunyang, at most he is a celebrity who can enter the imperial court.But this is enough, even if Qi Jin's skills can't hurt his good nephew, he can still live in fear.

After all, Qi Jin was his friend. Li Chongmao tried his best to restrain his anger of revenge. After all these years, he still remembered the scenes of that year, and the resentment had already taken root in his heart.

"Qi Jin, if, I said, if I go back to the Central Plains, you, will you help me?"

Qi Jin knew what he was talking about - to help him seize the throne.

Qi Jin was a little shaken, the scenes of the Anshi Rebellion were in front of him, the blood of countless fellow students stained the maple leaves in Tongguan red, the gorgeous red was beautiful and desolate.Qi Jin wondered countless times whether everything would be different if he were the emperor. With another person, the devil whispered in his ear. Every time he saw the emperor, he would have an urge to kill him and bring a new life to the world. Ming Lord.

Ming Lord, but in this world full of desire for power, who can stay clear forever, even if he kills the emperor, who can guarantee that the next person will be the Ming Lord.

Qi Jin didn't answer, but Li Chongmao already knew the answer.The wry smile on his face was only fleeting, he had always known the answer, but there was still such a fluke.Forget it, this road has overcome all obstacles and thorns, and it is already beyond redemption for one person, so why bother to drag others into the water.

Qi Jin just returned to the Central Plains and was announced into the palace by an imperial edict.

Today's palace seems to have a more comfortable atmosphere, not as dignified as before.Perhaps the peach blossoms warmed the cold palace, but even though the flowers bloomed luxuriantly, they were not as comfortable as the rural peach groves.

Standing under the peach blossoms is a man wearing a brocade robe with a dragon pattern and a nine-dragon jade crown. It is His Majesty today.

"Your Majesty." Qi Jin bowed down.

Although His Majesty had promised Qi Jin that he would not kneel and worship together with Li Wangsheng and just follow the Taoist etiquette, Qi Jin dared not.After all, Li Wangsheng was a member of the Li Tang clan, and his status as His Majesty's uncle and the head of the state religion was naturally extraordinary, but he was only Zixuzi of Chunyang, even if he received the grace of the Holy Spirit, he would not dare to surpass it.

The emperor praised him in his heart, advancing and retreating with restraint, without arrogance or impetuosity.

"I heard that you have met my uncle."

"Yes." Qi Jin knew that His Majesty would definitely mention this matter when he entered the palace this time, and he planned to tell what he and Li Chongmao had fabricated, but he didn't want His Majesty to speak again without giving him a chance: "Are you Think I'm a bloodthirsty person?"

Qi Jin didn't know why he would ask this question. At the beginning, when the Daming Palace was captured by mutiny and Queen Wei's family was executed, he didn't see his mercilessness. Later, Princess Taiping supported the army and was disobedient. A cup of poisoned wine poured this powerful man into the court The princess, his aunt personally sent it to Huangquan.

He has been burdened with too many murders, but if he doesn't kill people, he will be killed. The court is far darker than the rivers and lakes.It’s just that he’s tired after so many years of peace. Occasionally he practices Taoism and Zen, and when he hears about karma in this world, he always wonders if the people he killed with his own hands are staring at him with vicious eyes, waiting for him to fall into hell. one day.

Sometimes he is also confused, is it really necessary to kill?The royal family is really a sad family, doomed to endless fighting and killing.

"If your majesty is really bloodthirsty, the Divine Strategy Army sent earlier will not remain silent."

It's just that Qi Jin didn't know that this time in the palace, the Shence Army went out to investigate the dethroning of the emperor, and the most important thing was that he heard that a group of people came from the east of Penglai, and their clothing preferences were about pre-Qin folk customs.Everyone knows that in order to seek the elixir of immortality, the Emperor Qin ordered Xu Fu, an alchemist, to lead a hundred boys and girls into a big boat to seek the elixir, but Xu Fu never returned after he left.Some people once said that maybe everyone was buried in the belly of the fish due to the storm at sea, and some people said that it was Xu Fu who swallowed the elixir alone and lived with the hundred boys and girls on the fairy island.

He is afraid of death, and even more afraid of karmic revenge after death.It's a pity that the Shence Army searched Kou Island and found no trace of those people.Although I never had hope, I was still somewhat disappointed.

"It will be fine if everyone is as you think. By the way, Aiqing, Aiqing and I have taken the pills a few days ago, and I am deeply impressed by the miraculous effect. Can you refine some more for me?"

"The art of longevity lies in rest and rejuvenation, not the effect of pills. The efficacy of the medicine is seven percent and three percent poison. I hope Your Majesty will remember that if you make a mistake, you should take more." After speaking, Qi Jin took out a purple gold gourd from his bosom. This is Qi Jin When living in the Valley of Thousand Flowers, the elixir made with the herbs that Pei Yuan learned, although the effect is not as good as the elixir refined by alchemists, but it has very little harm to the body.The last time I saw His Majesty's complexion was not good, Qi Jin presented His Majesty with some of the qi-invigorating elixir that he had refined, but he didn't expect His Majesty to take it so quickly, so he had to remind him.

The emperor naturally knew what Qi Jin said, but sometimes he couldn't help but eat a few more grains to boost his power.Putting the gourd into his arms, he looked at Qi Jin for a while, and he liked it even more in his heart. He couldn't help but asked what he had thought a few days ago: "Chunyang has become the state religion, I want to make a state teacher, what do you think?"

The emperor asked lightly, but Qi Jin was terrified.On the surface, this sentence is asking yourself what you think about establishing a national teacher, but in fact it is asking yourself whether you want to be a national teacher.
