When Li Changshou sneaked into Chaoge City and chose the position of the six ministers, he had thought about it carefully. After a few comparisons, he finally chose to be the emissary.
Of course, the main reason he chose to be the emissary was definitely not because of the "most leisurely position".
He used Bian Zhuang's virginity as a guarantee. If he did not mean what he said, Bian Zhuang would be able to maintain his pure Yang body for the rest of his life.
As an ordinary minister of the Celestial Court, the number one advisor of the Jade Emperor, the famous old immortal of the Primordial World, and the only junior brother appointed by the Great Daoist Master of Ren School, Li Changshou could not be restrained by the mortal royal power.
The historian was considered a special existence in the mortal dynasty. Most of the time, the historian had to write whatever the emperor asked the historian to write.
There was a rule in the Shang Nation that the king would not punish the historian. At most, he would secretly arrange for an assassination or a sudden death.
The position of emissary did not need to do much. There was a group of officials under him who were in charge of recording the sacrifices, conquests, celebrations, and other major matters of the Shang Nation.
Previously, Li Changshou was mainly in charge of studying the history of the human race in Chaoge City. He would occasionally appear and tell everyone about the stories of the human race. He would tell them about the strange stories of Emperor Huang Xuanyuan and his three thousand concubines and obtain a huge reputation.
The Xuanyuan Harem was an inexhaustible spiritual wealth of the Primordial Human race.
Those who understood naturally understood.
Di Yi died and Di Xin ascended the throne. Many things happened on the rainy night. There was chaos, and corpses filled the entrance of the palace. However, there was only one sentence left on the tip of Li Changshou's pen.
"Di Yi has passed away. The eldest son, Zi Shou, has succeeded the throne. He is called Di Xin."
After writing that line in the Emissary's office, Li Changshou placed the resignation letter that he had prepared in advance on the desk. He summoned his assistants and reminded them warmly.
"Lord, why are you suddenly resigning?"
Li Changshou smiled and said, "I'm old and weak. My eyes are blurry."
After saying that, he stood up. The few of them hurriedly supported him, but he raised his hand to stop them.
There was no need to go to the Great King's Palace to discuss his resignation. Even if it was the Six Ministers and Three Dukes, he could just leave a letter.
The reason for resignation was that old age was more commonly used. If it was said that he admired the outside world and wanted to be free, then in the eyes of the scholars of the Shang Dynasty, he would be a true "noble person".
Li Changshou didn't care about his reputation, so he used the simplest excuse to resign.
Walking out of the Great Shi Mansion, he sat on the ox cart that he had called for earlier. Lying comfortably on the soft cushion, he watched the white clouds drift leisurely toward the city gate.
There were no commoners sending him off, and no onlookers.
Just like when he came, he left in silence.
He did not take away a piece of cloud, nor did he take away any young girl's dreams.
It was meaningless for him to continue staying in Chaoge City. Di Xin had already ascended the throne, and the wheels of the killing tribulation had already begun to spin rapidly.
Although he had changed many things, the script of the Heavenly Dao had not fundamentally changed.
What had he done in Zhaoge City over the years?
Actually, he had done a lot of things, but compared to the general trend of the world, they were all insignificant things.
However, at the end of the day, no one came to send him off. It was really a little …
"Emissary! Lord Emissary! "
Some familiar shouts came from behind. The corners of Li Changshou's mouth twitched a few times.
Fine, it's better if this person didn't come.
The ox cart swayed and stopped outside the city gate. Wen Zhong led a group of soldiers and guards and leaped over, shouting loudly from behind.
Li Changshou jumped down from the ox cart and put his hands in his sleeves.
Wen Zhong rushed over and got off the horse. He cupped his hands and bowed with a Dao salute. He asked anxiously, "Emissary, the new king has just been established. Are you dissatisfied?"
"I'm not dissatisfied." Li Changshou smiled and said, "I can't always play in the human world. The conflict in Chaoge City has temporarily ended. It's time for me to return."
Wen Zhong frowned and pondered. He wanted to ask him to stay, but he felt that his status was too different from Li Changshou's.
He could only say, "I haven't listened to your teachings a few times, and you're already returning. It's really a regret in my life."
"Hahaha." Li Changshou waved his hand. "Junior Master, oh no, Grand Tutor, you're being too polite.
Come and sit here. I'll have a drink with you and chat. "
At that moment, Li Changshou turned around and walked towards the small forest not far away.
Wen Zhong hurriedly followed and took a step forward. He said, "I'll make some arrangements."
When he walked into a place where mortals could not see, Wen Zhong activated the barrier and pointed out tables and chairs. He chased away the mosquitoes in the forest and placed two pots of wine.
When Li Changshou took his seat, Wen Zhong had already filled his wine cup.
Li Changshou smiled and said, "There's no need to be reserved. Let's take a seat together."
"Yes." Wen Zhong bowed as a disciple and sat opposite Li Changshou. His white-haired appearance had turned into that of a middle-aged man.
Wen Zhong sighed softly and said in a low voice, "I've embarrassed myself, Uncle-Master. To you, the various things in the mortal world are like children playing …"
"You've underestimated the human race."
Li Changshou turned to look in the direction of Chaoge City and said slowly, "Mortals do not cultivate, so they are selfish and have many selfish desires.
"Mortals do not cultivate, so they are selfish and have many selfish desires. The hearts of mortals are complicated. They are tens of times more complicated than those in the Central Divine Continent, especially in the mortal court.
Although there are many people, it is a good place to train one's Dao heart.
By the way, Wen Zhong, how will Di Xin deal with his two brothers? "
"He hasn't been dealt with." Wen Zhong smiled and said, "That's not bad. His two brothers have done everything they can to him. Now, he is only given an idle position and detained in his residence."
Li Changshou asked curiously, "Could it be that Di Xin wants the name of benevolence and righteousness?"
Wen Zhong pondered for a while and said, "In the royal court, the henchmen who colluded with the two princes previously will be executed tomorrow."
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
"Alright, it's probably another emperor's scheme."
"Uncle-Master, what do you think of Zi Shou?" Wen Zhong asked softly.
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Now, I don't dare to say that to you easily. You can take it to Jie School and say that I'm commenting on Di Xin.
Disciple-Nephew, to you, which one is more important, the Grand Tutor of the Shang Nation or the disciples of Jie School? "
"Naturally, the disciples of Jie School are the most important," Wen Zhong said seriously. "If not for Master's nurturing, how could I be here today?"
"Then?"
"However, Jie School is also seeking a way to break through the Great Tribulation," Wen Zhong said. "If the Great Tribulation corresponds to the change in the royal authority of the South Continent, wouldn't it correspond to the Shang Dynasty?
Previously, Jie School had won for a while. The fellow disciples of Chan School had retreated again. "
Li Changshou said, "Do you think Jie School won both times?"
Wen Zhong was stunned. He asked, "Uncle-Master, could it be that we lost?"
"I won't talk to you about this anymore." Li Changshou shook his head. "I can't be biased. I should treat both sides equally."
In fact, Di Xin's successful ascension to the throne was not beneficial to Jie School.
However, Wen Zhong and Di Xin's relationship was getting closer. The relationship between Jie School and the Shang Dynasty was getting stronger. Chan School was probably happy to see it happen.
From the perspective of the great sects, the possibility of the Shang Dynasty changing was still the highest.
In other words, he had won the small game in the palace today, but he might not be able to win the overall situation of the world.
The initiative of the overall situation was in the hands of an existence that Di Xin could not imagine.
"How has the Fire Spirit been recently?"
"I went to the border to become a general." Wen Zhong smiled bitterly and said, "I originally wanted to help Senior Sister, but she said that she wanted to make a name for herself. She even told me not to interfere."
"Hahaha!"
Li Changshou clapped and chuckled. "Disciple-Niece Fire Spirit is quite stubborn."
"Ah …"
Wen Zhong sighed dejectedly and said, "Previously, many fellow disciples had already asked me to arrange some errands for them in the mortal world so that they could show off.
Now is the time of the Great Tribulation. It doesn't matter if I lose myself. However, if I implicate my fellow disciples, I will really feel uneasy. "
"Really?"
Li Changshou squinted and chuckled. He said, "Disciple-Nephew, don't tell me you want to sound me out and see if you can let more disciples of Jie School enter the Shang Dynasty?"
"This …"
Wen Zhong immediately felt a little awkward. He stood up and bowed with a Dao salute. He hurriedly said, "Uncle-Master, you're really wise. I can't hide my thoughts from you."
Li Changshou's smile gradually disappeared. He said calmly, "Wen Zhong, based on what you said just now, it's not an exaggeration for me to kill you on behalf of the Grandmaster of Heaven."
Wen Zhong frowned and asked, "Uncle-Master, if you think that I'm wrong, I'm willing to accept punishment.
However, I don't know what's wrong. "
Li Changshou said, "The Celestial Court is pushing for the separation of immortals and mortals. However, you let outsiders enter the South Continent to be officials. That's a heaven-defying move."
Wen Zhong argued. "However, Uncle-Master, the Great Tribulation is imminent. This is just a temporary measure. The Qi Refinement cultivators who enter the South Continent to be officials do not covet pleasure, do not take advantage of others, and do not bully mortals. Why not?"
"You're not an outsider. How do you know that others are like you?
If an immortal were to use mortals for fun, how many mortals would they destroy? "
Li Changshou paused for a moment and immediately said firmly, "Rules are just empty words. Only rules that are implemented to the end!"
"Why didn't the Celestial Court stand up to protect such rules when I and the fellow disciples of Chan School entered the mortal world previously?"
"When the Great Tribulation is in operation, there should be chess pieces. You have long entered the chess game," Li Changshou said calmly. "Do you really think that the Celestial Court is completely unaware of this matter?
Then what am I doing here?
I'm just looking at you! "
Wen Zhong could not help but fall silent. He stood there and frowned.
Li Changshou downed the wine in his cup and sighed. "The Dao is already different. It's difficult to plan. Wen Zhong, do your best."
"Uncle-Master … ah."
Wen Zhong sighed softly and was about to speak when Li Changshou stood up and floated towards his ox cart. With a step, he appeared at the edge of the forest.
The faint Dao runes that circulated during this period shocked Wen Zhong. For a moment, he even forgot to chase after him.
He heard a voice transmission. It was Li Changshou who gave him four pieces of advice.
"The Immortal Path is Chang 'an. What is the meaning of the mortal world?
Don't wait until things get out of hand. Ask your original intentions later. "
Is it shallow enough?
Could there be any misunderstandings?
Wen Zhong had really lost himself in the words' Young Master '. A third-generation disciple of Jie School had arranged the fate of the entire Jie School.
He even came to me to make an exception!
If Jie School dealt with the Great Tribulation, it would be to shrink into a ball like a turtle shell.
At that moment, Wen Zhong had already become the weakness of the calamity.
Li Changshou really wanted to scold Wen Zhong until he woke up. Unfortunately, he would offend the Heavenly Dao and be unfair.
Li Changshou flipped over and jumped onto the ox cart. He rested his head on his arm and pretended to sleep. The ox driver sat at the side and shouted softly. The green ox strode forward and slowly walked into the distance.
After Li Changshou left, Wen Zhong walked out of the forest. His eyes were filled with confusion and his expression was a little disappointed.
Wen Zhong began to reflect on whether what he had done was right or wrong. Had he really placed Di Xin and the Shang Dynasty in a more important position?
Wen Zhong looked at the ox cart that Li Changshou was riding and fell into a daze for a while. Only when the ox cart circled around a hill and disappeared into the valley did he turn around and return to Chaoge City.
"Young Master, I've learned three new poems today!"
"Young Master, don't worry. Ever since I was born, strange things have happened repeatedly. I've suffered many calamities. I can live to this day all because of my hard life. I've long accepted it."
"Young Master, do you think the territory of the Shang Dynasty can still expand? Is there still a world behind the snowy mountains in the extreme north of the map? "
"Young Master, is the drawback of the Shang Dynasty really only itself?"
"Young Master …"
"Grand Tutor, are you going back to your residence or to the palace?"
A shout suddenly sounded beside his ear and disrupted Wen Zhong's thoughts.
Wen Zhong snapped back to his senses. Unknowingly, he had already returned to the city and was not far from his residence.
"Let's go back. Forget it. Let's go to the palace."
Wen Zhong said in a low voice. At that moment, he realized that he was already the Grand Tutor of the Shang Nation. He had great power and could no longer address him as Zi Shou. He had to call him King.
King, the world is too huge. There are too many capable people. We are just a drop in the ocean.
Perhaps only a true expert like Uncle-Master Changgeng could be considered carefree and follow his heart.
However, in the South Continent, which was protected by the Heavenly rules and was about to become the battlefield between the two sects …
If I, Wen Zhong, stand tall, the Shang Dynasty will not collapse.
"Go!"
Wen Zhong gently placed his feet on the horse's belly and sat on the horse. It galloped on the empty road in front of the palace gate.
A few days later, seven to eight hundred kilometers north of Chaoge City, an ox cart slowly stopped in front of a magnificent temple. The historian of the Shang Nation who had just resigned calmly found the place.
Li Changshou looked up at the plaque of the temple and nodded with a smile.
Goddess's Temple.
Yes, I'll try my best to bluff him later and try to become an honorary abbot.
It was none other than …
Leave Chaoge and come to the temple to wait for the Shang King's carriage to arrive.
It had only been ten years since Di Xin arrived and the Great Tribulation began.
Hence, nine years later.
…
"Li Jing! We can't be husband and wife anymore! "
In the backyard of the military headquarters at Chentang Pass.
A high-ranking servant sat on a rattan chair in the shadow of a fake mountain. A maidservant held a large oil cloth umbrella beside him. Two servants waved a fan beside him and looked at the farce in the pavilion.
It was comfortable.
It was comfortable.
Li Jing's anxious voice sounded.
"Madam, Madam, listen to my explanation!
Jinzha's cultivation is at its peak. Didn't we use the Shadow-Retaining Ball to take a look?
He has received a lot of care from Chan School. Now, he is already a young man. He is full of energy and spirit. He will send us a letter every year, right? "
"I'm talking about Muzha! Muzha is only nine years old! "
"Yes, yes. Isn't it because Jinzha's performance is outstanding and he has fought for the Li family? That's why the experts of Chan School came and wanted to take Muzha in as a disciple."
Li Jing sighed and said, "I can't bear to part with my son either. However, my son's masters are all experts. This is also an immortal opportunity.
Didn't you see Daoist Ci Hang's wife? She looks very benevolent. She definitely won't beat or scold Muzha. "
"You! Ah! "
Lady Yin sighed softly and sat by the bed, sobbing softly.
Li Jing hugged his wife and apologized. Then, he joked, "Madam, we lack three of the five elements now. We have to continue working hard.
I'll have to rely on you for the next Shui Zha! "
"Is our child for you to make up for the Five Elements?"
"Of course not, of course not." Li Jing smiled and said, "Madam, you have also cultivated immortal spells. The rest of your life is long. It will be lively in the future if we have a few more children.
Madam, think about it. When Jinzha and Muzha return from their studies, our family will be lively and healthy. Wouldn't that be a beautiful thing in the world? "
"Ah." Lady Yin sighed and said, "Can't we bring our next child with us?"
"Yes." Li Jing hurriedly said, "I swear to Madam that my third son will personally teach him and not let him go out to cultivate."
"That's more like it."
"Madam, why don't we try now? We might be able to have a daughter …"
"Pui! It's still daytime. The dignified commander is not ashamed! "
Li Jing chuckled and stood by the window with Lady Yin in his arms. He looked at the clouds in the western sky.
That's right. Muzha had just been taken away by Ci Hang.
When Muzha became a disciple, there were some twists and turns. Even Perfected Samantabhadra, who had been "booked" previously, wanted to take him in as a disciple. In the end, the two Perfected Ones debated and Daoist Ci Hang won steadily.
Before Muzha became a disciple, Li Jing used the same trick again and gave him a "manly" education.
Li Jing had three ways of raising children — military training, fighting demons, and having a heart-to-heart talk.
The effect was indeed good.
Li Jing was already prepared to welcome Nezha. It was unknown when Senior Brother Taiyi would move.
However, Li Changshou checked the Earth Book that he carried with him in advance and realized that it was not far from Nezha's reincarnation.
Although Li Changshou could not cheat like the Jade Emperor and ignore the obstruction of the tribulation to deduce the Heavenly Dao, he could obtain a lot of useful information with the help of those "small items".
After thinking about it, he still felt that it was not safe.
Li Changshou pondered for a while and had a plan in his heart. A paper effigy rushed to the Qianyuan Mountain.
He had to be steady and consider all aspects.
Although Ling Zhuzi, who was also Little Nezha, was not as important as Yang Jian in the "X's Disappearance" plan, he was still a junior who he had "watched grow up". He was a hardcore direct descendant of the Grand White Palace. He could not let him suffer any grievances.
