Chapter 307: Epic natural disaster, marriage of peace and history repeating itself?

Chapter 307: Epic natural disaster, marriage of peace and history repeating itself?
The little toddler rushed forward and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

However, Liu Wanliang did not chase after him, but only sent guards to look for him, as if the child was really a relative's child.

Seeing that he didn't move, Zhao Xing remembered that Liu Wanliang came to find him for something.

"You've been staring blankly by the lake all day long. The princess is a little worried about you, so she asked me to come and check on you." Liu Wanliang said.

"I'm fine." Zhao Xing said, "I just reached a bottleneck."

"It takes time to master the Mountain Method and Gather Heaven's Luck. Chen An, you have also mastered the Wanfa Grass Man, so you should not make people worry."

Zhao Xing understood immediately and said quickly, "I will go see the princess right away."

Liu Wanliang smiled and nodded.

Zhao Xing waved his hand, and his clothes swayed like flowing water. In the blink of an eye, he completed the transformation from simple to gorgeous attire.

Princess Youruo was not entirely worried about herself, because she was right under her nose. Except for being a little dazed due to practicing the mountain method, her clone at home had behaved normally for decades.

The focus is still on Lao Liu.

Liu Tianning is thousands of miles away, and his original body has been in seclusion for many years. Although he also has a clone handling official business outside, Princess Youruo is more worried than Zhao Xing.

Since the 26th year of Dazhi, Liu Tianning's original body has undergone two major retreats.

The first time was from the 26th year of Dazhi to the 56th year of Dazhi, a full 30 years.

Princess Youruo has not seen Liu Tianning in person for thirty years.

He left the country in the 57th year of Dazhi.

But we only met once and spent less than a month together.

"Old Liu has completed the first stage of the reconstruction of the Yanshen Jue during his thirty years of seclusion."

"But Princess Youruo doesn't know this because it is top secret and there is no way she could know it."

"She was anxious precisely because she didn't know the reason." Zhao Xing recalled as he walked.

"I couldn't tell her either. I could only reassure her that the teacher was fine."

Zhao Xing recalled Liu Tianning's activities: "In the fifty-seventh year of Dazhi, he left the country and concentrated on handling official business."

"Beginning in the fifty-eighth year, he secretly visited the nineteen states to investigate the effectiveness of the promotion of the Qingmiao Law and rewarded or punished the local branches."

"Compared to the Jingxinli period, the number of officials in the Benwo faction has increased significantly. In some prefectures, the number of civil ministers and military ministers in some armies even exceeds that of the other two factions."

"This is his capital for competing for the position of Minister of Agriculture. He cannot ignore it."

"Three years after the investigation, in the first year of Yongzhi, he returned to Daoyuanzhou and entered the [Dojo] to fight with Yun Zheng, the dean of the Yunzhong Academy of Xuantian Academy."

"According to convention, the competition between the three factions and the candidates for Grand Minister of Agriculture will have a maximum of ten battles in total, with ten years between each battle."

Why is it a maximum of ten rounds? Because if the opponent is defeated in the first few rounds, there is no need to go through the next rounds.

If you are not convinced, then fight again after ten years.

During this period, he may have made various political achievements, which may have impressed others, but they may not continue to fight ten years later.

"After nine rounds, if you still refuse to accept, then there is nothing we can do."

"The tenth battle will be the [Struggle for the Great Way]." Zhao Xing said secretly.

The first nine games only determine victory or defeat, not life or death.

Even the winner should try to show mercy and not hurt the opponent.

After the fight, both sides still have to sit down and discuss, seeking common ground while reserving differences.

After nine games, if one still cannot convince the other party to listen to him, the only option is to fight for the right path.

"Normally, the fight wouldn't get to this point, but Liu Tianning is the dean of Shangluo Academy, and he belongs to the ego faction."

"My faction has never produced a Great Minister of Agriculture. I'm sure there will be a time when the battle reaches the tenth round."

"For example, in the battle with Yun Zheng in the first year of Yongzhi, after Yun Zheng lost, he did not sit down and discuss with Liu Tianning. He just threatened to fight again in ten years and then left."

Without even going through the motions, one can imagine how much resistance Lao Liu would face in becoming the Minister of Agriculture.

Of course, there are also cases where the candidate gives in but has to continue fighting.

Because he represents not only the interests of one person, and shoulders not his own glory, but the interests and glory of a school.

There is nothing you can do if you know it is impossible to do something.

Dying in the dojo is better than surrendering! At least it can give an explanation to the supporters who have invested a lot of resources behind the scenes: Look, I fought for our ideals until I died, which is worthy of your support for hundreds of years.

"In the first year of Yongzhi, Liu Tianning fought a total of eight battles. Four people from Xuantian Academy participated in the battles. They were the deans or vice-deans of the four academies of Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Cloud. They were all candidates."

"Without exception, all were defeated by Liu Tianning."

"However, Ling Tianchen and Wang Tianzhi are not among them."

"This is Liu Tianning, who has only reached the first level of the Divine Art after retraining." Zhao Xing thought to himself. "Liu Tianning's cultivation talent can really be called the best in Si Nong. Even I can't compare to him in some aspects."

Zhao Xing practiced mountain methods for eighty-two years but was still stuck in the Heavenly Journey Perfection realm and unable to break through, but Liu Tianning reached the first level in just three years.

Of course, he did not use mountain methods to cultivate his destiny, but used sacred trees to cultivate his destiny.

There is no essential difference between the two, except that the mountain method of maintaining energy is a little more difficult.

However, Liu Tianning will have a smoother time in the Tianyun Realm. His family has occupied one third of Si Nong's luck since the founding of the country.

The most representative Wanfa straw figurine and Liu Chuan’s straw figurine method were created by his great-grandfather and reached a new height in his hands.

The fate of heaven, my fate, and the fate of the country have accumulated for thousands of years. In this realm, no one will be more successful than Liu Tianning.

Mr. Zhao considers himself a wall-hanging man, and even those in the Tianyun realm have to submit to him.

However, it is different when practicing Yanshen Jue.

During the 82 years of living in the mountains, Zhao Xing did not give up the practice of Yanshen Jue.

After all, this not only involves Lao Liu's life and death, but also involves himself.

As he reached the second level of Tianyun Realm, he also had to practice the second level of Yanshen Jue.

"In the case of practicing mountain methods, in less than ten years, I have cultivated the second level of Yanshen Jue to perfection, my soul has split into 50, and my soul has imprinted the stars, which has once again set a new record."

"The time after this will be to summarize the correct method of practicing the second level of Yanshen Jue, and to make targeted summaries for the situations of the strong men who have re-cultivated, not only Liu Tianning, but also the strong men of other professions."

"Since the first year of Yongzhi, I have been teaching Liu Tianning to practice the second level of Yanshen Jue, and I customized it for him."

"After he fought eight battles, defeating four people from the Tianshi Faction and four people from the Dili Faction, he began to retreat again."

"After that, I came out every ten years. I have fought with eighteen people so far."

“The most played four rounds, and the least played one round.”

"Wang Tianzhi and Ling Tianchen have not yet fought him, but Meng Kun and Qin Shanyue have both been beaten up."

It's only been four rounds, and no one has said they will surrender and not fight anymore.

That would be too embarrassing. After all, he is Si Nong of my faction. He should last until the ninth game at least, right?
"The Yongzhi reign lasted for ninety-eight years. Li Boqian would die in the late Yongzhi reign, and there would be no Grand Minister of Agriculture for several years after his death. The struggle among the three factions would almost completely end in the second year of Emperor Wu's Yuanshou reign."

As one's life becomes longer, it takes time to verify the achievements, laws, theories, and virtues of a hundred years.

It would also allow the three factions of Si Nong, as well as people from all walks of life and the emperor to see clearly who is the right candidate for the Grand Si Nong.

“Then again, Lao Liu is extremely talented in other aspects, even in the Heavenly Luck Realm, I can’t compare to him, but his progress in re-cultivating the Divine Essence Art is a bit slow.”

"It is already the 46th year of Yongzhi, and his speed of recovery is slower than that of geniuses in other professions." Zhao Xing said secretly.

The reconstruction here does not mean to disperse the power and rebuild it, but more like a correction and treatment from point to surface.

You can say that you can disperse the energy and start over, but how do you disperse the energy of the soul? Do you want to turn yourself into a ghost?
If it were that easy, the problem of the Wanfa Grass Man would not have remained unsolved for so many years.

"Princess Youruo's worries are not unreasonable, but she has her own troubles. I hope she can see things clearly and not lose her temper."

Zhao Xing thought about it and walked into Yonghua Palace.

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Princess."

Princess Youruo, Ji Anlan, was sitting at the desk, her brows slightly furrowed as she reviewed official documents.

When he heard Zhao Xing salute, he did not speak immediately.

Zhao Xing just kept bowing and waited quietly.

He knew that Princess Youruo was already very dissatisfied with them, the master and disciple.

Come to think of it, it’s easy not to see your loved one for more than ten years or even decades.

Doppelganger? What's the point of doppelganger? It's just to fool the kids!

He didn't tell me the reason.

The disciple is also in seclusion. She knows the reason. Princess Lingshan Yangyun Youruo understands that this is a key realm for Zhao Xing.

The higher the mountain, the higher the luck! The greater the final feedback on personal luck, the greater the harvest. The luck of heaven does not only refer to personal luck, personal luck is just one of its manifestations.

However, even though I understand it, I still feel very depressed.

Since he couldn't ask Liu Tianning, Zhao Xing kept silent about the reason and just said it was okay, very perfunctorily.

Princess Youruo is now over two hundred years old, and she can definitely live to the lifespan of a first-rank official.

Even so, Princess Youruo, who is over 200 years old, has reached a critical period - she should consider getting married.

But in this situation, how can she get married? She can't even find someone!

"Swish!" Princess Youruo became angrier the more she thought about it and threw the propaganda pen away.

"Zheng!" The propaganda pen sank into the pillar in the hall, and the tail end kept shaking.

"Rustle~" She pushed the neatly arranged documents into a mess.

"Bang!" A document was thrown on Zhao Xing's back.

Zhao Xing took two steps forward to make it easier for Princess Youruo to hit him.

How can an official document kill someone? If you want to kill someone, you should use a hardwood pen holder or a seal.

Princess Youruo was simply sulking.

If it were the past, why would Princess Youruo be sulking?

They were all blatantly angry, and while they were venting their anger, they would curse and hit at the same time.

But now she can't find any reason. It's top secret. What can Zhao Xing do?
If you can't find a reason, you can only be angry.

This was not a solution. Zhao Xing came closer and whispered, "Master's wife, you are the eldest princess of the country. How can you be so disrespectful?"

Great, I have an excuse.

Princess Youruo picked up the pen holder and smashed it, cursing: "Is it your turn to teach me etiquette? You conscienceless bastard!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Princess Youruo cursed more and more vigorously, but soon all the things were thrown away.

It’s no use just scolding without throwing things!

Zhao Xing pointed and a gust of wind dragged the things on the ground back to the table.

With something to calm her anger, Princess Youruo continued to be furious: "Zhao Chenan, you bastard, even you use your clone to fool me!"

"Today I will smash this rotten piece of wood into pieces!"

"..."

At this time, a little boy who had just gotten rid of his guards and was planning to come back to show off to his elder sister approached the Yonghua Palace.

After seeing this scene, his eyes widened immediately.

"ah!"

The child covered his mouth, quickly lay down outside the doorway, and slowly crawled to the side.

The threshold was high, and when he lay down, he disappeared completely. He then pinched his nose, and then he became invisible.

The accompanying guards walked onto the corridor, bewildered.

What about people?

Is he really lost?
"Shhh."

Liu Wanliang suddenly appeared behind the corridor and waved his hand gently, signaling the guards to retreat.

Then he quietly picked up the child and covered his eyes: "Don't look, this is all fake."

"Fake?" The little child used his little hands to pry Liu Wanliang's fingers apart.

But the next moment he found himself no longer outside Yonghua Palace, but in a pavilion.

“Ah, I can’t see it.”

"Uncle Liu, what do you mean by fake?"

Liu Wanliang smiled and said, "There is a kind of magic in the world called illusion."

"Like I am now."

Liu Wanliang suddenly transformed into the image of a woman.

When the child saw this, he immediately forgot what had just happened.

"This is good, this is good! I want to learn it!"

He also pretended to shake it, but unexpectedly there was a real change. For a moment, his face turned into that of a little girl, which was exactly the appearance of Liu Wanliang now.

It only took a second for it to break down and return to its original form.

"This..." Liu Wanliang was secretly shocked. "Young Master is truly a genius."

"Huh? How could it fail?" The child jumped up and instantly appeared on Liu Wanliang's shoulder.

His little hands pulled at Liu Wanliang's eyelids and untied his hair, completely forgetting what had just happened.

Liu Wanliang smiled and took it off: "Zi'er wants to learn, then I will teach you..."

……

In Yonghua Palace, Princess Youruo finally calmed down.

Everything returned to normal, even the pen returned to Princess Youruo's hands.

If a young child were here, he would definitely shout, "It's fake! It's fake!"

Princess Youruo looked at Zhao Xing who was bowing and saluted, and snorted, "Find a place to sit by yourself."

"Thank you, Princess." Zhao Xing stood up, then went to the table next to him and knelt down.

"Let me ask you, what is Liu Tianning's situation?"

"One moment he can come out to do things, go to the dojo to fight, and the next moment he needs to retreat, leaving only a small number of clones outside to mechanically handle official business... Forget it, I just want to ask one question, is he out of control?"

"No." Zhao Xing said affirmatively, "Teacher will never be like Xu Xing."

"Then why didn't you lose control?"

Zhao Xing stopped talking again.

He couldn't tell.

If Emperor Jing doesn't reveal the secret to Princess Youruo, no one can do anything.

Seeing that Zhao Xing knew nothing about anything again.

Seeing him was like seeing someone else. Princess Youruo suddenly felt annoyed: "Go away!"

Zhao Xing stood up, bowed respectfully, and then said, "Master's wife, I have something to say but I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Fuck away!"

"I feel that you have been overworked over the years. If you were not so tired, you would worry less and be less anxious. You can walk around and have a good rest."

Princess Youruo was about to curse again, but she thought that Zhao Xing had good intentions after all, so she stopped cursing: "Got it."

"The disciple retire."

"and many more."

Princess Youruo seemed to remember something: "A relative has come to our house. If you are free, you can play with him more. In a few months, I may ask you to teach him the art of agriculture."

Zhao Xing nodded: "Yes."

After leaving Yonghua Palace, Zhao Xing shook his head.

He didn't know whether Princess Youruo listened to what he said.

But he took Princess Youruo's words to heart.

"It seems that Emperor Jing is not going to hide the fact that the prince is being raised in the princess's mansion from me. If he doesn't want me to know, I would probably ignore it even if I saw it."

Today is different from the past!
At the beginning, Zhao Xing planned to come to the East China Sea to raise dragons. The first one he wanted to raise was the dragon in Longting, and the second one he wanted to raise was the real dragon, Emperor Wu!
Originally, he just wanted to be a fifth-rank official in the reign of Emperor Jing, and then have some time to spend close contact with Emperor Wu at some point in time.

Even though the time may not be very long, as long as you are involved, it will be great fortune and great benefits!

"But now, I am already in the second-grade Heavenly Luck Realm."

"I didn't need to look for him deliberately. Liu Wanliang brought Emperor Wu to see me directly."

"The princess asked me to play with Emperor Wu and teach him the art of agriculture. This would not have happened without Emperor Jing's permission."

Many plans need to be adjusted. Zhao Xing had made a lot of preparations before, but now he doesn’t need to make any special preparations at all.

"Destiny is my destiny. I don't have to look for good things, good things will come to me. I just need to let nature take its course." Zhao Xing's understanding of the realm of destiny has deepened.

Returning to Tianma Beiyuan, the Zhao Mansion was now a little bigger than before.

"Eighty-two years have passed. I am already 147 years old, and my younger brother Zhao Zhengdu is already 138 years old."

"My second sister, Zhao Yuhuan, is already 121 years old."

"My third sister, Zhao Yuling, is also 103 years old."

"My fourth brother, Zhao Chuanzong, was born in the 86th year of Dazhi and is already years old."

Zhao Xing recalled.

Speaking of which, Zhao Ruide was also helpless.

The first four did not have any offspring. They were all doing well and had a bright future, and they were still thinking about pursuing a career.

There was no other choice, the old man had to do it himself, and so Zhao Chuanzong was born.

To carry on the family line, what a simple wish!

Zhao Chuanzong was also very ambitious. He got married and had children at the age of 30. He married the daughter of a marquis as his principal wife, and also took the daughters of prominent families as his nine wives.

After that, it’s all about giving birth.

At the age of sixty, Zhao Chuanzong already called his grandfather grandpa.

Today, Zhao Chuanzong's branch has separated out and is extremely prosperous, with already forty or fifty children and grandchildren.

"My foster father, Zhao Ruide, turned 200 last year. He has already become a sixth-rank inspector."

"My stepmother, Madam Cai, is 171 years old and has also had her life extended several times."

It has been shown that life span can be extended slightly many times.

For example, Zhao Zheng is now a military general of the fifth rank. For this reason, Mrs. Cai was given the title of "Wuhua Ruren", which is the seventh rank among the noble women.

There is no actual force or authority, just honor and longevity.

The second sister, Zhao Yuhuan, is already a fifth-rank preaching mage.

The third sister, Zhao Yuling, was a fifth-rank weaver girl.

They didn't make any contributions, but they did help Zhao Ruide and his wife to extend their lifespans slightly.

There is one major time when life was extended significantly.

It was Emperor Jing's 900th birthday, and when he rewarded his ministers, he said that Zhao Ruide and Madam Cai had great love.

Because the country had cultivated wise ministers and generals like Marquis Shenwei, he promoted Zhao Ruide to the fifth-rank military inspector, and conferred a fifth-rank imperial edict on Madam Cai, upgrading her to Madam Wuhua.

Once you reach a certain level, things will be much easier. You can eat treasures to extend the lifespan of your current level to the limit.

So Zhao Ruide and Madam Cai can live for at least another hundred years.

As long as Emperor Wu's reign comes, there will definitely be more rewards, and he will have at least two or three hundred years to live.

Of course, Zhao Ruide and Mrs. Cai no longer had any offspring.

The main reason is that Zhao Chuanzong is already very fertile, and he would be worried if he had too many children and grandchildren.

They all wanted to get some benefits from their uncle Zhao Xing.

Although Zhao Ruide and Madam Cai were not born into a wealthy family, they had lived in the princess's mansion for so many years, how could they not know the pros and cons?

I can’t cause trouble for my eldest son!

As a result, Zhao Ruide not only stopped having children, but also asked Zhao Chuanzong, who was already married, to separate from him.

Zhao Xing had some affection for his two sisters, but Zhao Chuanzong's relationship was more average.

Of course, even so, Zhao Chuanzong's branch still benefited greatly, at least they were not short of money.

"Except for Zhao Zheng, I have never interfered with my brothers and sisters' official positions, but I have never treated them unfairly with money."

Zhao Zheng was an exception. He had good talent, so Zhao Xing personally arranged him into the Shenwei Army and handed him over to Liao Rulong for training. Now he is a standing deputy general.

They had been living by the Canglan River for many years, but there had not been any major battles. Even though Zhao Zheng had good talent, he was still only a fifth-rank military general at the age of over a hundred.

"Speaking of talent, the most terrifying talent belongs to the emperor." Zhao Xing said secretly.

Emperor can be said to be the only profession!
It is more perverted than the priest, because the priest's full professional proficiency is still delegated to others and needs to be accomplished by praying to gods.

However, the emperor is proficient in all professions, and his talent values ​​in all professions are terrifyingly high.

Of course, it is impossible to reach the top level in a single item. For example, the emperor's talent in agriculture cannot surpass Lao Liu and Zhao Xing.

In terms of Si Nong's talent, he is probably only slightly better than Wang Tianzhi and Ling Tianchen.

In terms of martial arts talent, he is slightly better than Ye Yukong.

By analogy, everyone can be called a peerless genius in every field, but not the strongest genius.

However, the integration of all professions is also quite terrifying. "Let me teach Emperor Wu the art of agriculture?" Zhao Xing was looking forward to it. "I have to pay more attention to the cultivation of Emperor Wu."

…………

Starting from the early part of the 46th year of Dazhi, the young Emperor Wu would come to Tianma Beiyuan from time to time to play with Zhao Xing.

The reason why he only teaches skills and not Taoism is because the consequences of preaching Taoism to the prince are too great and the ministers cannot bear it.

If the prince succeeded to the throne and became emperor, it would be even more terrifying, so we only teach him the skills but not the doctrines.

The prince practices the way of the human emperor, and the only one who can preach it can be the emperor.

The teachings of Emperor Wu could only be passed on by Emperor Jing.

Of course, now is not the time yet.

Liu Wanliang and Princess Youruo both simply asked the young Emperor Wu to address Zhao Xing as 'Marquis of Shenwei' or 'Big Brother'.

Emperor Wu refused at first.

"No, I don't want to go!"

The young child kept kicking his feet in Liu Wanliang's arms.

"What's so fun about farming? Uncle Liu, let me go!"

Liu Wanliang put him down helplessly.

"Whoosh~"

As soon as he let go, the person disappeared.

But this time Zhao Xing couldn't let him escape.

shuh~
Two figures flashed, and the next moment, Zhao Xing carried the young Emperor Wu up into the air.

"Wow!"

The little child opened his eyes and looked at the ground, and suddenly became afraid of heights.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

"Are you sure I want to let you go?" Zhao Xing asked. "This is 10,000 meters high. If you fall down, you'll be smashed into pulp."

"No, don't let go..."

But he spoke too late.

Zhao Xing has let go.

"Ah ah--"

A loud voice cut through the sky.

Emperor Wu was in free fall, and even his hair was blown straight.

But after falling two kilometers.

His vitality suddenly released outward, and then the downward trend slowly slowed down.

After falling another thousand meters, this guy actually comprehended the warrior's "Dancing in the Air".

"Ooooh, I can fly!"

Zhao Xing looked at this scene and couldn't help but nodded slightly.

The current Emperor Wu is probably only four or five years old, but he has already surpassed the ninth-grade Juyuan Realm and reached the eighth-grade Lingqiao Realm.

According to the rule that the prince should only study academic subjects but not Taoism, and should learn the skills of various schools from a young age, his talent is extremely terrifying.

Emperor Wu kicked his hands and legs in the air as if he was paddling in the water, trying to fly away.

Zhao Xing snorted: "Little guy, I can't cure you."

He immediately stretched out his finger and directly sealed the vitality of the Little Emperor Wu.

"Eh?" The little Emperor Wu paused in the air for a moment, with a confused expression, and began to fall again.

"what---"

When he reached the ground, Zhao Xing caught him.

"Zhu, is it fun?"

"Fun!"

"Will you learn or not?"

"Not learn!"

Wow, you're quite courageous.

"Go away!"

Emperor Wu once again flew into the sky with a loud voice.

Below, Liu Sicheng stood behind Ji Anlan, looking at the sky: "Princess, is it really okay for Marquis Shenwei to do this?"

Princess Youruo said, "What's the problem? This child is born with pride and a strong heart. If he meets someone who is equally proud, there is no way to teach him otherwise."

"Zhao Chenan knows his limits, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Come back in two hours to pick someone up."

"Yes." Liu Wanliang lowered his head and left with Princess Youruo.

Emperor Wu was indeed arrogant. He refused to give in during the two hours of Zhao Xing's first day.

"Okay, you have guts!" Zhao Xing put him down, "We'll fight again tomorrow."

"Hmph! I just won't learn!" The young Emperor Wu slipped away in a heroic and arrogant manner.

The next day, bungee jumping.

Day 3, bungee jumping.

Day 4, bungee jumping.

……

It was not until the seventh day that Emperor Wu finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Stop! Let me say something!"

Zhao Xing pulled his neck and said, "Go ahead."

"I can learn from you, but you have to teach me something fun, something I haven't seen before."

It's not a good idea to keep arguing like this, and the little Emperor Wu doesn't have much time to play every day.

How can Zhao Xing bear to waste half of it?
"Okay." Zhao Xing smiled and loosened his collar. "Then what should you call me?"

"Marquis Shenwei." Emperor Wu called out reluctantly.

"Ok?"

"Brother." Emperor Wu's eyes rolled and he saluted seriously.

"Hahaha, fifth brother." Zhao Xing also happily returned the greeting.

"Eh? Why am I the fifth one?"

"Because I have several good brothers, and you can only be ranked fifth, I will call you the fifth brother." Zhao Xing said to make amends.

Emperor Wu didn't care about that and just asked, "What fun thing do you want to show me?"

Zhao Xing pointed behind him and said, "Look back now."

Emperor Wu turned around as he was told, and his eyes widened immediately: "Wow! So many big brothers!"

In front of him, behind him, and in the sky, there was Zhao Xing's figure.

Emperor Wu felt his trouser legs moving, so he looked down.

Even a head popped out from the ground, smiling at him: "Is it fun?"

“Great!” The child clapped excitedly, “Brother, I want to learn this!”

…………

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye it was early spring of the 47th year of Eiji.

Lingxu blessed land, on the top of Mount Qitian.

Zhao Xing once again felt that a causal line was about to break.

A figure appeared in his mind, a figure holding a compass and shining it on his whole body.

When Zhao Xing saw this scene, the figure in the picture seemed to turn around and nodded slightly to him.

…………

Tianyongzhou, Fengjing.

In Xicheng, in front of an elegant waterside pavilion.

Ji Tianyan looked up and smiled.

"Zhao Xing, you're here."

"Your Highness." A cloud of mist dissipated, and Zhao Xing's figure landed outside the steps of the waterside pavilion.

"Come in and sit down." King Tianyan stretched out his hand. "I don't have much time left, and I have something to tell you."

"Please speak, Your Highness." Zhao Xing and King Tianyan sat opposite each other.

"The first thing is the successor." King Tianyan poured a cup of tea for Zhao Xing. "After I leave, Ji Si will take over my position."

Zhao Xing nodded slightly. This was almost obvious.

Only royal family members would be appointed as officials. Ji Si was the younger brother of Prince Tianyan, but she was two hundred years younger than him, so she could at least reach the early period of Emperor Wu.

"Although he and I are both descendants of King You, his personality is different from mine. He seems gentle, but in fact he is not kind at all. His code of conduct is to maximize the interests of the royal family."

Ji Si was definitely not liked by others, but she was definitely liked by the emperor.

Of course, Zhao Xing didn’t remember Ji Si in his previous life. The official in charge was elusive and he didn’t have much dealings with her.

But after King Tianyan said this, he understood.

"After Ji Si takes over from me, she will continue to complete the improvement and supplement of the second level of Yanshen Jue."

“There are now more and more people involved in the restoration of different roads, and it is expected that it will be completely completed in the near future.”

"This is a long-term plan. I ask you to continue with this."

The Yanshen Jue will have different directions due to individual differences, so the disadvantages will also be different. It is impossible for one medicine to cure all diseases.

Zhao Xing is cooperating very attentively now, because he and Liu Tianning both have interests involved.

What about the future? When Zhao Xing is in a high position, will he have no time to do this, or will he not care about it?
After all, his contribution to this thing is not obvious, it takes too long, and he might have to take the blame if there is a problem.

So King Tianyan was making a request.

"I promise you." Zhao Xing said seriously, "I will not slack off and will do my best."

"I believe you." King Tianyan smiled and said, "It's a pity that I won't see that day."

Zhao Xing was silent. He thought that the officials were just like the emperor and the mad Xu Xing. They would become meaningless after their death.

Predicting the future and deducing the past, the ultimate price is life.

Of course, King Tianyan is not a strong man in the rule realm. If he is a super-first-level rule realm, he can save his soul.

But he was promoted to the first rank by Emperor Jing, and Emperor Jing himself was only at the rule realm, and it was impossible for him to let King Tianyan reach the rule realm. Even if there was such a method, he would not be able to use it on King Tianyan.

"You don't have to be sad, this is my destiny." King Tian Yan smiled, "I can witness the birth of the historical record of Yanshen Jue in the last hundred years of my life, and promote the modification of the first and second levels of Yanshen Jue. I am already very satisfied."

"How many kings have there been in history? Too many!"

"But I, Ji Tianyan, will go down in history, and people will always remember me!"

"Isn't this much more powerful than being a prince, or becoming a Yin God with little presence?"

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "You are right."

"How about tea instead of wine?" King Tianyan raised his teacup.

"Come."

The two touched each other.

After putting down the teacup, King Tianyan continued, "There are three more major events in progress at Tianji Pavilion."

"I can't tell you two of them. I'm not qualified to do so."

"But there is one thing that is related to Sinong, and I must tell you."

Seeing King Tianyan being so serious, Zhao Xing also sat up straight and said, "Please speak."

"In the future, there will be a major natural disaster involving the entire Xuanhuang Realm!"

"Whether it is the land of Nanman, Dongying, the Four Seas, the Nineteen States, or even the Cave Heaven World, drastic changes will occur."

King Tianyan said solemnly: "Hundred-year climate change will be seen everywhere, and thousand-year climate change will no longer be rare."

"I saw many images in which life and energy were extinct."

"The earth rolled, the underground fire erupted, and the tsunami surged..."

"Even the Minister of Agriculture was unable to stop this disaster."

Zhao Xing's expression changed slightly: "The future Minister of Agriculture, isn't it possible?"

King Tianyan pondered and said, "I don't know."

"What do you mean?"

“Although it has appeared many times, proving that it is very likely, I cannot see clearly the people in the future.”

"I don't know whether the future Grand Minister of Agriculture will stop it or not. This is not something we can predict."

"So this deduction is still ongoing, and it will also be one of the main directions of the deduction of the Great Zhou's destiny officials."

"Why are you telling me?" Zhao Xing asked.

"I saw you." Tian Yan Wang said, "I saw your figure."

"You don't mean to say that I prevented the natural disaster?" Zhao Xing's face showed some surprise.

"No, it cannot be stopped." Tian Yan said, "Many of the deductions show that the natural disaster has already occurred, and there is no process of defending against it."

"I saw you, but I don't know what you did, and I don't know if you are the key to saving the world." Tian Yan said, "I even only saw your back."

"You only saw my back...how can you be sure it was me?" Zhao Xing said. He also knew a little about divination. This did not conform to the basic rules of fortune-telling.

"Intuition." King Tianyan smiled and said, "Just think of us as fate officials taking precautions. It doesn't matter if it's you or not... If it's really you, then it would definitely be better to tell you in advance."

"I understand." Zhao Xing nodded. "Do you have anything else to say?"

"No, I have no right to tell you the other two things unless your majesty allows it."

Zhao Xing nodded. The appointed officials were not included in the list of all officials. Even the Grand Minister of Agriculture had no right to know about the affairs of the appointed officials. They only served the emperor.

"Oh, there is something else." Tian Yan said. "Luo Hou still owes me a few seventh-level magic weapons. I think he is trying to shirk his responsibilities. Please help me collect the debt in the future."

"You are such a joke."

"Hahahaha." King Tianyan laughed heartily. "Okay, kid, let me tell you a fortune."

"What do you want to calculate?"

"The future." King Tianyan said pretentiously, pinching his fingers, "Within a hundred years, you will become the Minister of Agriculture!"

"What do you mean by holding a teacup?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

The 47th year of Yongzhi, Qingming Festival.

The first-rank official, Ji Tianyan, passed away.

The funeral was held in a low-key manner and few people knew about it.

…………

Lingxu blessed land, on the top of Mount Qitian.

A sigh came from the hill covered with rocks and snow.

"King Tianyan is gone too."

"What he told me should be the vitality tide that will happen in the future."

"The fate official has two more major projects? I don't know, but one of them must be related to the war with the Nanman. What is the other one?"

"Forget it, I'll know it when it's my turn." Zhao Xing's thoughts returned to calm again.

Ever since Mount Qitian reached the threshold of ten thousand meters, his thoughts have become heavier.

Although the Peak of Heaven has not become higher, its size is expanding.

For many consecutive years, precious earth-attribute resources have been invested.

Heaven's luck is like a mountain. Zhao Xing is constantly expanding the limits of his Heaven's Luck realm through continuous accumulation.

When his mind became active again, it was already the 56th year of the Yongzhi reign.

"Another ten years have passed."

Zhao Xing, standing by the lake, was a little dazed.

Emperor Wu left the princess's mansion last year.

So he often stared blankly by Tianma Lake.

Occasionally a Pegasus would pass by Zhao Xing, but he was not afraid of it at all and would even rub against it.

Because Zhao Xing exudes a very friendly natural aura.

In May, Chen Shijie and Xia Jing visited Lingxu blessed land.

Now, these two people have gradually found time, because they have both entered the third level this year.

As per convention, they also had a longer vacation to consolidate their cultivation in the Yuanhun realm.

However, after seeing Zhao Xing's real body in this state, he left again.

…………

In early July, Zhao Xing felt that the bottleneck had loosened.

But at the same time, he also learned some bad news.

"The envoys of the Southern Barbarian Holy Light Royal Court came to the capital, hoping to seek a princess for the Crown Prince of the Holy Light Royal Court in order to conclude a peace agreement, and are willing to accept the Great Zhou as their suzerain."

"The princess, the princess has been granted marriage!"

Liu Wanliang's anxious voice appeared in Zhao Xing's ears.

Zhao Xing, who was staring blankly at the lake, turned around and the expression on his face gradually became lively.

"I see."

Zhao Xing nodded calmly. "Liu Sicheng, please go to the capital and tell the princess that my teacher and I will know about this."

Liu Wanliang stared at Zhao Xing for a moment, then sighed: "You better hurry up."

After Liu Wanliang left, Zhao Xing closed his eyes.

"History repeats itself. Princess Youruo is still granted marriage."

"I have reminded her many times, why doesn't she listen?"

Zhao Xing sighed.

"Emperor Jing did not even let his brothers go, so how could he tolerate the existence of a princess who controls the East China Sea waterway, can command many high-ranking masters of the Taoist Academy and the Water Tribe, and is as rich as a country."

"It is true that bystanders see more clearly than those involved." Zhao Xing said inwardly.

Since the birth of Princess Ji Yingluo in the first year of Yongzhi, Zhao Xing saw everything clearly.

How could Emperor Jing change the reign title for a princess, and then grant the princess a title right after taking action, giving her more favor than Princess Youruo?

"The Qiansui Princess' biological mother is just an ordinary daughter of a duke's family."

"That's already a hint."

"I advised the princess to put aside her official duties and go out more often, in order to hint that she understood Emperor Jing's intentions and took the initiative to hand over power. The sea route is secondary, and the main thing is the authority of the Taoist temple and the water tribe."

"Around the 40th year of Yongzhi, Emperor Jing sent the young Emperor Wu to her to take care of. This was to provide her with a layer of protection."

"Because Emperor Jing has already poured all his strength into Emperor Wu, there is no such thing as nine dragons fighting for the throne. Emperor Wu is the only destiny!"

"That's why Emperor Wu learns faster than the other princes. His talent is completely up to the standard of an emperor."

But can Zhao Xing say these things? He can't.

How can a father just say that he wants to take away his daughter’s rights?

Emperor Jingdi did it honorably, and the test remained.

How can others talk too much?
Is it so clear to choose?

Isn't this interfering in the emperor's family affairs and sowing discord between father and daughter?

"More and more people are promoting the Yanshen Jue, but this matter has not been revealed to Princess Youruo."

"Princess Youruo made a little move, and Emperor Jing followed suit. The last thirty years of Yongzhi were the time for the emperor to transfer power. Emperor Jing really wanted peace during these decades."

"Alas, this is not a test for her. Can Liu Tianning and I just stay out of this?"

"I'm really impressed by you, you idiot!"

PS: A new volume has been opened. In addition, there was a power outage this afternoon, and I have to go to a wedding banquet to prepare for the meal. Today's volume is more than 10,000. I will explode tomorrow. In addition, the weather is getting colder, so remember to put on more clothes.
