Xie Guanying was not surprised at all. He continued to climb the stairs calmly, "Don't tell him."
The youth blinked, "Why?"
Xie Guanying ascended step by step and chuckled, "If you agree, I'll tell you why your Grandpa Jian Zheng will always lose to Huang Longshi and why he can't be the Chess Armor in the Spring and Autumn Thirteen Armors."
The youth thought for a while, "Deal."
"I'll go help Jin Xinan." The youth turned and ran down the stairs.
Xie Guanying came behind Chen Zhibao who was standing near the 'Tiandao' of the Tongtian Platform and asked, "Are you still unwilling to take this step?"
Chen Zhibao did not answer.
Xie Guanying said slowly, "Tantai Pingjing herself did not know that her Daoist heart was damaged. Jin Xinan was even worse. He neglected the fundamentals and focused on the trifles. He had been accumulating for decades and was the most promising seed of the Tiandao. However, he pulled up the seedling to help it grow and ruined himself. Old Jian Zheng and Nan Huaiyu persuaded the late Emperor to not adopt the new calendar written by Li Dangxin. As a result, the old Tiandao gradually collapsed. You and I were the ones who benefited the most from it. Even if Cao Changqing did not die and did not let you have the fate energy, you could still become the only Three Sages after Ancestor Lu in a thousand years. Gao Shulu would also be overshadowed. I'm afraid that other than Wang Xianzhi, Li Chungang who was at his peak sixty years ago, Hsu Fengnian who just defeated Wang Xianzhi, and Cao Changqing who was determined to die, would not be your match. "
Chen Zhibao said, "There's also Đồng Thái who really held a sword, Xu Yanbing's dying shot, and you who was willing to give up being the Emperor of the human world for a thousand years, Xie Guanying."
Xie Guanying shook his head, "You know that I won't fight for such a title. The price is too high."
Xie Guanying suddenly said, "You're unwilling to take this step because you don't want to bask in Hsu Fengnian's glory?"
Chen Zhibao remained silent.
Xie Guanying smiled and shook his head. "If that's the case, why did you come to Beijing? Is it fun to watch Hsu Fengnian strut around?"
Chen Zhibao did not say a word.
Xie Guanying gently sighed. "You contradict yourself."
After a long time, Chen Zhibao, who was looking into the distance, suddenly said, "We seem to have missed a person."
Xie Guanying said nonchalantly, "No matter how much effort I put in, a disobedient chess piece is dead."

Outside the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, Archery Commandant Li Shouguo acted as if he was facing a great enemy. The two carriages on the left almost sped over, and then suddenly stopped not far from the main gate.
Two?
Other than the King of Beiliang, who else would dare to get involved in this mess?
Could it be that Xu had reinforcements?
Li Shouguo gestured Lee Chang An not to leave the gate and walked towards the two carriages alone. As a result, the nervous captain was stunned.
Two elegantly dressed women walked out of the two carriages.
However, after seeing one of them clearly, Li Shouguo immediately knelt on one knee and cupped his fist. "Li Shouguo greets the Empress Dowager!"
After Zhao Zhuan ascended the throne, Empress Dowager Zhao Zhi nodded slightly. "Get up and guard the gate. No one is allowed to enter."
Li Shouguo quickly got up and returned to the main gate of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory. At this time, Li Shouguo, who was sweating profusely, saw his eldest son Lee Chang An with a relieved expression. He thought to himself, 'Good boy, if not for the Empress Dowager's arrival, I would have thought that you were not afraid at all!'
The two women, who were of similar age but had different auras, stood five or six steps apart and looked at the other end of the street side by side.
Empress Dowager Zhao Zhi said with a hoarse voice, "Today, even if you die, you must stop him. Otherwise, he will die!"
Jiu Jiu Restaurant's proprietress smiled. "Back then, he lied to his mother. This time, is it still a lie?"
Zhao Zhi suddenly turned to look at this woman. She bit her lip so hard that it was slightly bloodshot.
This woman, who was once married to the scholar named Xun Ping, might have gone mad. She actually laughed heartily. "I am a woman. Now, I am a widow who runs a small business. Back then, even though I knew that my man wanted to die, I endured it and did not interfere. On the way here, I indeed wanted to stop that child at all costs. When I got down from the car just now, I don't know why, but even if I wanted to watch that child die, I felt that I should not stop him. Women, you, Zhao Zhi, are not the only one to fall out with others. Actually, anyone can do it. "
Zhao Zhi narrowed her eyes. "You want Xu Xiao and Wu Su's son to die so badly?! Moreover, it is the eldest son, Hsu Fengnian? "
The proprietress's lips twitched. "Zhao Zhi, my memory is better than yours. I remember that Xu Xiao said a long time ago that there is no one in the world who deserves to live or can't die. There is no such logic! It is not easy for a man to walk in this world. It is not shameful to think of living as long as possible! But sometimes, it is even more necessary to die! "
Zhao Zhi's face was as dark as water.
Unknowingly, a young woman stood behind each of the two women.
Princess Sui Zhu, Zhao Fengya.
Chen Yu.
Between the two of them, one was haggard and the other was in high spirits.
When the proprietress of Jiu Jiu Inn saw the black dot at the end of her vision, she turned to Chen Yu and smiled. "Back then, you should have seized the opportunity to make a move. It is a pity that you missed some men."
Chen Yu seemed to have recalled some past events. She raised her finger and pointed at her chest. She smiled and shook her head. "Aunt Hong, when I first met that guy, he kept looking at me here. It is really difficult for me to make a move on such a man."
The proprietress held back her laughter and scolded the brat. She said hatefully, "If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked! You are indeed the same as your father! "
Chen Yu grunted twice. She lowered her gaze slightly and looked at the towering scenery. Her eyes were clearly full of smiles, but her tone was somewhat aggrieved. "My place can't be fake, right?"

The carriage approached slowly.
Even though he knew that the Imperial Astronomer would not be able to cause a ruckus with the presence of the Empress Dowager Zhao Zhi, Lee Chang 'an's heartstrings were taut in an instant. Lee Shouguo was sweating profusely and his vision was almost blurred.
A young man lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.
He did not deliberately avoid the Empress Dowager Zhao Zhi, Princess Zhao Fengya, Xun Ping's wife, and Chen Yu, but he did not deliberately approach them either.
When Zhao Zhi saw this, she clenched her fists and said in a low voice, "Hsu Fengnian!"
Hsu Fengnian, who was facing the Imperial Astronomer, slowed down his footsteps.
Zhao Zhi stared at the handsome face that resembled the face of a certain woman from back then. This young man was still young. He was different from the high-spirited person he had seen before. He was also different from the white-haired person he had seen before. This time, the young man surnamed Xu was reserved and calm.
Zhao Zhi said angrily, "Hsu Fengnian, don't forget that you are now the King of Beiliang! Beimang will still send its army south at any time! "
He did not stop walking. If he walked another dozen steps, they would see his back.
Zhao Zhi said in a heavier tone, "Yuan Benxi, Yang Taisui, Han Shengxuan, Teacher Liu, they're all dead! Other than Yuan Benxi, the other three have all died by your hands! They're all dead! "
Zhao Zhi found that the young man showed no signs of stopping. A deeply hidden panic appeared in her eyes. She forced herself to calm down and said, "Hsu Fengnian, even if you don't consider your own life, you have to consider the millions of Beiliang's people! If you die in Great Peace City today, do you not know that the three hundred thousand cavalry will come to the capital? Do you not know that the Beimang army will take the opportunity to step into the Central Plains? "
The young man finally stopped walking.
Zhao Zhi could just see the side of his face that was clearly defined.
Perhaps it was because of the rough sandstorms of the northwest and the tempering of the battlefield.
There was no gentleness on the young man's face, only determination.
Seeing this person stop, Zhao Zhi did not let down her guard. She continued, "The Emperor tolerated you entering the capital without permission this time. You, Hsu Fengnian, should understand!"
Hsu Fengnian did not turn his head. He looked at the solemn Imperial Astronomer. "Many people, including you and Zhao Duan, do not understand why after the White Clothes Case in the capital, my father left the capital and returned to the Xu family's camp with hundreds of thousands of armored soldiers, he still did not lead his army into Great Peace City. Even when my father died, he did not tell me why. "
Hsu Fengnian paused. "But after I wandered outside Beiliang like a dog for three years, I understood why. Xu Xiao did not dare and was not willing to drag his fellow soldiers who had fought in the north and south for half their lives to die with him. But if Xu Xiao was not just a level two master of martial arts, but a top expert of the martial arts, he would have charged into the palace alone and killed all of you! Do you know what I wanted to do the most after returning to Beiliang? It was not to inherit the throne one day and control the three hundred thousand border soldiers of Beiliang. It was to practice martial arts and become the best in the world! At that time, I was not afraid of death, but I was afraid that I would be like Xu Xiao for the rest of my life and only be a master. I wanted to practice martial arts even in my dreams. "
No one knew that on the border of Liang Mang, there was a young man who did not want to sit under the awning and finally reached the first level of Vajra Realm.
How happy was that!
Hsu Fengnian narrowed his eyes. "The reason I said this is because you are women. But don't forget, Zhao Zhi, in the White Clothes Case, my mother was also a woman! "
Hsu Fengnian started to walk forward.
Densely packed iron armor swarmed out of the gate of the Imperial Astronomer.
At the end of the streets on both sides, there were countless elite cavalry soldiers rushing over!
Zhao Zhi, Jiu Jiu Restaurant's lady boss, Chen Yu, and Zhao Fengya heard the young man's last sentence.
"What Xu Xiao wanted to do but could not do back then, I, Hsu Fengnian, will do today."
— —
Xu Yanbing no longer sat in the carriage. He slowly installed the spearhead on the spear.
Inside the carriage, there was a large black and gold embroidered robe that he had taken off from his body.
The young man who walked toward the Imperial Astronomer.
An old cold knife hung from his waist.
He was dressed in white.
