From martial arts apprentice to Dagan martial artist

Chapter 382 The Unlucky Princes and Empresses (two chapters in one)

Li Yi sat in the supervisory department and waited for Wei Jinzhong to return. Logically speaking, he should go with him to the palace city to meet Emperor Taiping.

But considering that I came here this time, in a certain sense, I am leaving my post without authorization.

So Li Yi didn't go to see Emperor Taiping directly, but waited here.

First, let Wei Jinzhong tell you that he has arrived in the capital of God and wants to ask for leave or resignation, so as to test His Majesty's tone.

When Emperor Taiping summons him, he will go again.

Li Yi naturally turned over the can of good tea from the side, and asked the little eunuch on the side to bring him a pot of boiling water.

Make a cup of tea and drink it yourself.

He didn't wait for long, but Wei Jinzhong hurried back after a while.

"Uncle Wei."

Li Yi greeted him with a smile, and poured him another cup of tea.

"Among so many tea leaves, this can is the best one, and you are quite good at picking."

Wei Jinzhong took the tea and drank it down in one gulp, speaking cheerfully.

Judging by his attitude, Li Yi already understood that this matter should be sure and there would be no major problems.

"It's because of your extraordinary taste, Uncle Wei. The tea here is pretty good, and this junior just picked a can at random."

Li Yi laughed and flattered him.

Hearing his words, Wei Jinzhong's expression was very pleased, obviously he was in a good mood.

"I have already told His Majesty about you, and His Majesty wants to see you in person.

But I think His Majesty is in a good mood, because there will be no accidents in this matter, and he should give you a lot of rewards. "

Wei Jinzhong laughed.

Li Yi's beheading of many warriors from the Demon God Sect is also considered a credit, and the court's reward for him has already been prepared.

It's just because the news came a few days ago, and the team that gave him the reward hasn't left yet.

Now that Li Yi has come to the capital of God, the reward will naturally be given to him directly.

"Okay, then I'll go to Miyagi now."

Li Yi nodded slightly, left the Supervision Department, and walked all the way to the inner city.

After crossing the inner city and coming to the front of Miyagi, he just stopped.

The guards guarding on both sides rushed over immediately and routinely asked his identity and name.

Li Yi showed the supervisory commander's card, and the guards headed by trotted all the way to report.

Not long after, an old eunuch came.

"senior."

Li Yi laughed and bowed to salute while speaking.

He has met this old eunuch many times, although he is not familiar with him, he is still acquainted.

"Marquis Li Zhesha is old." The old eunuch immediately reached out to stop Li Yi.

"Let's go, Your Majesty wants to see you."

The old eunuch laughed and led Li Yi all the way to the depths of the palace city.

"I really didn't expect Li Junhou to practice so fast. This old man has practiced for a lifetime, and he is only at the sixth level of innate."

The old eunuch couldn't hide his envy in his tone.

"The junior is just a fluke."

Li Yi smiled lightly and spoke very modestly.

The two chatted all the way, and soon came to a large hall.

"Li Junhou, His Majesty will wait for you in this hall."

The old eunuch stopped in front of the palace, and said in a deep voice.

Li Yi didn't change his expression, and walked into the hall.

The temperature in the hall is suitable, and the light incense is lit, which makes people feel at ease. There are more than a dozen palace people standing on both sides of the hall.

Emperor Taiping is playing chess with someone, and the person who is playing chess with him is handsome, and he is three points similar to Emperor Taiping.

Looking at the robes he was wearing, he reckoned that it should be a certain prince.

Li Yi was really unfamiliar with these princes, he had never even met them face to face.

These princes wanted to win him over at the beginning, but Li Yi didn't give them a chance at all.

"coming?"

Seeing him coming, Emperor Taiping stopped the chess game in his hand and asked with a smile.

"Ah."

Li Yi nodded, and immediately bowed to him.

"sit."

Emperor Taiping greeted with a smile, and immediately a palace man brought a chair.

Li Yi was not restrained, he simply sat down and watched the game.

The level of Emperor Taiping is the same as before, but the level of the princes he plays is not bad.

At least one level higher than Emperor Taiping.

The point is that the prince didn't intend to give in at all.

Therefore, the situation on the field was completely one-sided, but after more than thirty rounds, Emperor Taiping had no way out.

Seeing that there was absolutely no hope of turning things around, Emperor Taiping stopped making any moves immediately, and turned to look at Li Yi.

"I know everything about you."

He straightened his face and spoke to Li Yi seriously.

"what!"

Li Yi was taken aback for a moment, originally he was waiting for the end of this game of chess, who would have thought that Emperor Taiping would stop playing halfway through the game!
The prince who played chess with Emperor Taiping also had a dull expression.

He didn't realize it at all, why his father was halfway down!

Obviously, he already had the upper hand, and he was about to win immediately.

I have studied chess painstakingly for a long time, just waiting for this time to win once.

But Emperor Taiping suddenly stopped, which really caught him off guard.Now it's neither a win nor a loss.

"You did a good job. You have made such a great contribution and killed many demon gods and warriors. You should be rewarded!"

Emperor Taiping's complexion remained the same, without any change.

"The people came to draw up an order. Li Yi, Marquis of Sifang Commandery, will be rewarded with [-] pieces of high-grade primordial stones, [-] stones of Shilu, a pair of calming jade Ruyi, and a Thousand Profound Treasure Pill."

Emperor Taiping spoke loudly.

A palace official at the side quickly took out a silk script and wrote on it.

These rewards are paid from the national treasury, so an imperial decree must be drafted.

If it was a personal reward from Emperor Taiping, taking things from his own treasury, there would be no need for so many cumbersome procedures.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

Li Yi smiled and bowed to thank him.

"Your cultivation base has now reached the sixth level of congenital realm. It seems that you have not slackened in your cultivation during this period of time."

Emperor Taiping smiled and praised, looked at Li Yi and nodded repeatedly.

He was also surprised for a while after knowing that Li Yi was already born at the sixth level.

It's just that Emperor Taiping knew that Li Yi was not only extremely talented, but also worked hard enough.

If there are some more adventures, it is also shocking to be able to reach the sixth level of congenital realm in such a short period of time.

But on him, it seems that it is not completely unacceptable.

When he thought of this, he couldn't get angry. Li Yi's qualifications are so good, but he still works so hard.

As for his sons and daughters, even though they may not be as qualified as Li Yi, the resources they enjoyed from childhood to adulthood are definitely a hundred times and a thousand times what Li Yi can get.

However, even in this situation, they still seldom practice, spending most of their time doing other meaningless things.

Until now, there are still many princes and emperors who have not been able to break through the innate realm.

Emperor Taiping was in a good mood when he didn't see Li Yi before, but now after seeing Li Yi, he still couldn't help thinking about it.

The more I think about it, the more I get angry, and the more I get angry, the more I think about it.

Li Yi is not much different in age from his own children, why is he working so hard and striving so hard, while none of his children are successful!

If this is the case, how can I rest assured that I will hand over Dagan to them in the future!

To be honest, the qualifications of Emperor Taiping's children are not bad.

It may not be particularly brilliant among the princes and emperors of the past, but it is also quite satisfactory, definitely not bad.

The point is that there is no harm without contrast.

With Li Yizhuyu in front, those princes and emperors, even if they exhausted their own efforts, it is impossible to compare with him.

"Father, our game of chess..."

The prince, who was playing chess with Emperor Taiping, spoke inappropriately. It seemed that he really wanted to win this game.

Emperor Taiping suppressed the anger in his heart, and looked at his son with a fake smile, "An'er, how is your cultivation now?"

"Father, my son has just broken through to the Houtian Ninth Layer Realm recently."

He bowed and saluted, and replied honestly.

Judging from his age, at most eighteen or nineteen years old, it is really not bad to have such a cultivation level at this age.

Emperor Taiping glanced at Li Yi first, then turned his gaze to his son.

"Are you just so self-satisfied! Instead of practicing diligently, you put your energy on other things! Aren't you wrong to waste yourself like this!"

Emperor Taiping had a sullen look on his face, and asked sharply.

"My son knows it's wrong!"

He hurriedly said, although he didn't understand where he was wrong, but at this time he had no choice but to admit his mistake.

Seeing that he took the initiative to admit his mistake, Emperor Taiping's expression softened.

"Look at Marquis Li, although he has good aptitude, he still puts his heart into practicing. You should learn a lot from him and stop hanging out with those cronies."

Emperor Taiping looked serious, and persuaded in a deep voice.

Li Yi had a subtle look on his face. Now he seemed to be regarded as a role model, used by Emperor Taiping to teach his children.

"Your servant must learn more from Marquis Li!"

The prince spoke, his tone full of resentment.

A person with better aptitude than me and a person who practiced harder than me, what should I use to surpass him!

He didn't know, but he didn't dare to refute his father.

He didn't even dare to blame Li Yi, because he couldn't beat Li Yi.

Not to mention him, even his many elder brothers, it is impossible to do anything against Li Yi.

They made friends with ministers on weekdays, but Emperor Taiping might not care about them.

But if you want to attack any courtier.

That is courting death again, even if they are princes, Emperor Taiping will not show mercy when he strikes at them.

Because Emperor Taiping is the most powerful emperor, no matter whether his courtiers are demoted, punished or killed, he can only be done by him.

If these princes want to move, it is arrogance, not only moving the scales of Emperor Taiping.

It even moved the civil and military officials of the court, and even the princes and nobles.

So even with the two hundred courage of these princes and emperors, they dare not have any thoughts about Li Yi.

So no matter how wronged he was, he could only hold back.

It's just that the tone of the whole person, and even the look in Li Yi's eyes became resentful.

He also wanted to try hard to surpass Li Yi, but when he thought about it carefully, he knew that he was probably hopeless in this life.

He has better aptitude and talent than himself, and works harder than himself, so what can I use to fight him!

The seventeenth prince couldn't stop howling in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face, no matter how bitter the smile looked.

"I will punish you for a hundred days, you must practice hard."

Emperor Taiping said in a deep voice!

The smile on the Seventeenth Prince's face became even more bleak, but he could only bow down and salute, "I take orders!"

Emperor Taiping nodded in satisfaction, "Come here, take 1000 yuan of high-grade primordial stones from my private treasury, and thirty pieces of fourth-grade pills for cultivation. Send them to An'er's residence!"

After he finished speaking, some palace servants left immediately to go to the inner treasury to call the primordial stone elixir.

The seventeenth prince looked overjoyed, "I thank my father for the reward!"

Emperor Taiping paid his respects nonchalantly, it seems that he knew the truth of beating a stick and then giving a sweet date.

"There are also many treasures on the first floor of my inner treasury, you can choose three of them."

He continued to speak.

"I thank my father for the reward!"

The seventeenth prince laughed extremely happily. Even if he was grounded for a hundred days, if he could get a reward from his father, then it would all be worth it.

He knew that his father's imperial treasury definitely had countless treasures, even if he could only choose three, it would be of great help to him.

The feeling of grievance in my heart disappeared and turned into ecstasy.

At that moment, another palace official came and took the seventeenth prince to the inner treasury.

Li Yi stood aside all the time, watching Emperor Taiping teach and reward his son.

After the seventeenth prince left, Emperor Taiping issued an order to the palace people beside him, "The decree will go on, so all the princes, emperors and daughters will be restrained for a hundred days, so that they can practice hard."

After saying this, Emperor Taiping looked at Li Yi's serious expression and waved to him happily, "Come on, play two games with me."

"The minister takes orders."

Li Yi looked calm, sat down opposite Emperor Taiping, set up the chess pieces, and started fighting with him.

When the two meet opponents, they will meet good talents. You come and go, and the fight is very happy.

After all, Li Yi was busy practicing during this period of time, and because no one played with him, his hands felt a little rusty.

A moment later, Emperor Taiping's chariots and horses moved forward, and Li Yi had no way out, so he had to surrender.

"It seems that His Majesty has improved his chess skills during this period of time, and the minister is not as good as him."

Li Yi looked sincere and sincerely praised.

"Haha! You're not bad either."

Emperor Taiping smiled lightly, with a very contented expression on his face.

He might not be so happy if others said that, but Li Yi was different.

His chess skills are indistinguishable from his own, and the fact that he can beat him so easily shows that he has indeed improved.

And Emperor Taiping could see that Li Yi never gave in when he played chess with him.

False praise is nice, but sincere praise is more pleasing.

"Come, come, come and play two more rounds with me."

Emperor Taiping's chess skills are so strong that he will fight again.

It is hard to find an opponent who is comparable to himself and can fight fiercely.

Although Wei Jinzhong's chess strength is equal to his own, but he has to deal with the affairs of the Supervision Department, it is impossible to play chess with him every day.

So Emperor Taiping was very happy to see Li Yi this time.

The two played several games in a row, and Li Yi gradually found his hand, and finally seized the opportunity to win a game with Emperor Taiping.

"I have heard Zhongzhong say that you want to resign?"

Emperor Taiping no longer reset the chess pieces, but asked suddenly.

"Not necessarily, I just plan to explore a secret place, it may take a long time.

If I want to ask for leave, I'm afraid it will take a long time, so I can only resign. "

Li Yi replied in a deep voice.

Emperor Taiping nodded slightly, as if he was thinking about the matter, and after a while, he opened his mouth to speak.

"You don't need to resign, your fake is approved. You can directly hand over the affairs of the Supervision Department to Wei Ning."

Emperor Taiping understood that no one is more suitable for the post of director of the Daying Supervision Department than Li Yi.

He has kindness to the Ying family, and he has kindness to many forces.

As long as he is in office, absolutely no one would dare to deal with him.

As long as he is there, the supervisory department will face fewer problems.

Dagan doesn't have to lose a natural strong man every few years.

In order to maintain this tacit understanding, Emperor Taiping also ordered people to stop the assassination of Daying envoys.

The reason why this balance can be maintained is because Li Yi is here, if he is allowed to resign at this time.

The fragile balance will be broken in an instant, and the two countries have to fill it with a lot of innate powerhouses.

So even if Li Yi wants to take a long leave, Emperor Taiping will allow it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Yi stood up with a smile on his face to thank him.

This result was much better than he expected. Originally, he was ready to resign, but he never thought that he could successfully apply for a vacation.

"But you have been practicing hard in closed doors, why do you suddenly want to explore the secret realm?"

Emperor Taiping revealed a curious look on his face and couldn't help asking.

"Returning to Your Majesty, I have recently reached the bottleneck in my cultivation, and I haven't broken through the seventh level of innate for a long time, so I want to go out and explore to see if I can get some opportunities to break through."

Li Yi looked sincere and replied honestly.

This was an excuse he had thought up long ago, and it was natural that he would not be flustered when he said it now.

Emperor Taiping fell into silence, with a look of astonishment and confusion on his face.

Originally, he thought that Li Yi could break through the sixth level of congenital in such a short period of time, and he was already a celestial wizard among the celestial wizards.

But never imagined!
Li Yi asked for leave this time to prepare for breaking through the seventh level of innateness.

Emperor Taiping didn't know what to say for a while, he thought about it carefully, and it seemed that his cultivation was only at the seventh level of innate.

But how long has he practiced, how long has Li Yicai practiced.

Even if it is impossible to practice hard after ascending the throne, you need to allocate time to solve other things.

Even so, his practice time is far longer than that of Li Yi

What's more, as the emperor of Daqian, he has never been short of various precious resources.

Even so, his cultivation until now is only comparable to the seventh level of the innate.

However, Li Yi was about to catch up to this cultivation level that he had only obtained after decades of cultivation.

With his aptitude, as long as there are no accidents during this trip to the secret realm, his cultivation will definitely reach the seventh level of innate, and may even be higher.

"How long has it been since you broke through the sixth level of innateness!"

After a long while, Emperor Taiping asked.

He was very curious in his heart, how long has it been since Li Yi broke through the sixth level of innateness, and he must have been sleepy for a long time.

Otherwise, with his aptitude for practicing all the way, he shouldn't suddenly want to explore the secret realm.

But if this is the case, when did he break through the sixth level of innateness!

"Returning to Your Majesty, it has been four full months since I broke through, but I haven't made any progress in these four months, so I want to go out and explore."

Li Yi looked indifferent, and answered very sincerely.

Emperor Taiping fell silent again, and the entire hall seemed to be silent.

He didn't know what to say, he really wanted to stand up and roar, asking Li Yi loudly who taught him to call four months a long time!

Fortunately, Emperor Taiping had been the emperor for many years, and he had long been able to hide his emotions and anger. Even though the turmoil in his heart could not be calmed, his expression rarely changed.

However, he was thinking in his heart, how long did it take him to break through from the sixth level of innate to the seventh level of innateness!

A full 11 years!
This speed can't be said to be very fast, but considering that he, as an emperor, has to be distracted from government affairs, it can't be called slow either.

Emperor Taiping's aptitude is not bad. If he wants to ascend the throne, although strength itself is not an absolute requirement.

But it can't be too bad, otherwise even if you can become the emperor, you won't be able to bear the power of the dragon.

But what about Li Yi!
It's only been four months since I didn't make a breakthrough, so I started to worry!Also call the four months a long time!

Emperor Taiping didn't know what to say now, he felt that there was a big gap between his cognition and Li Yi's cognition.

It seems that I can't understand the thoughts of a peerless genius like him, or it's not just me.

According to Li Yi's qualifications, looking at the world, I am afraid that no one may understand his thoughts.

Normally, no innate martial artist would feel anxious about failing to break through in four months.

Not to mention innate warriors, even acquired warriors, forging warriors, it is normal for them not to break through in four months.

Even some warriors are stuck in a certain realm for a lifetime, let alone four months, even if it is four years and 40 years, they may not enter the realm again.

But what about Li Yi!

No breakthrough in four months, in his mouth, it has been a long time since he entered the country!
Emperor Taiping didn't even dare to think about how Li Yi cultivated. Could it be that he had to break through a realm in a month or two, or he would be too slow.

He was silent for a long time, really not knowing what to say next.

What Li Yi said had a great impact on him.

I don't know how long it took before he calmed down slowly.

No matter what, the reward is still to be rewarded.

Li Yi is such a talented person, he has to cultivate everything he says.

With his aptitude, there is no need to wait until the future, now he is the pillar of the big work!
Moreover, Emperor Taiping also knew some things about Li Yi during this period, and of course he couldn't hide what happened in the mysterious territory of Yao.

Li Yi returned the bones of the ancestors of the human race to those aristocratic families and sects.

Of course, Emperor Taiping knew it a long time ago. After all, there was no cover up for these things, and Li Yi did it aboveboard.

Emperor Taiping was surprised and was very concerned about it.

Li Yi actually returned not only the bones, but also the treasures he got.

This is very rare.

Treasures are hard to find, no matter what warrior wants them, let alone so many.

Changing places, even oneself may not be able to withstand this temptation.

But Li Yi held back abruptly.

It can be seen from this that he is absolutely honest and reliable, upright and trustworthy, which is a rare heart of a child.

Li Yiruo is only good in aptitude, perhaps Emperor Taiping would not train him in this way.

But a young man with good qualifications and a good heart.

No matter what you say, you have to vigorously cultivate it!
What's more, Emperor Taiping knew that the newly enthroned Empress Daying had made Li Yi a third-rank official, which was extremely rare.

Although it is just a false position and does not have any power, it can also be seen from this that the empress of Daying is also very concerned about Li Yi.

Emperor Taiping understood that such outstanding talents with good aptitude and great temperament were not only wanted by himself.

Big Win also definitely wants to win over, but they may not have a good chance.

But I can't help but take this to heart, so I should do more to win over and support Li Yi.

"Go back to my inner treasury and get 2 yuan of high-grade primordial stones.

As for the elixir, first use [-] elixir of the fifth tier, and I don’t have many elixir of the sixth tier, so you take five elixir first.

There are still many treasures on the second floor of my inner treasury, you can choose three of them.There are bound to be many dangers in the exploration of the secret realm, so it will be safer to bring more treasures and medicines with you. "

Emperor Taiping thought for a while, and said in a deep voice.

The words are very natural, which shows the closeness to Li Yi.

Hearing what he said, these things are no longer rewards from the emperor to his courtiers, but help from an elder to the younger generation.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Yixiao was extremely happy, and hurriedly saluted Emperor Taiping.

Your Majesty is indeed His Majesty!If there is a primordial stone, he really gives it.

"Your current official position, I really can't give you a promotion, so don't complain."

Emperor Taiping spoke leisurely.

Li Yi is only a third-rank official now. On the contrary, he is a serious third-rank official in Daying.

Although it's just a fake job.

But Emperor Taiping couldn't help it. Naturally, it was impossible for him to arrange a vacancies for Li Yi.

But if he was given real power, he would be promoted too quickly in a short period of time, which would inevitably lead to discussion among the officials.

As an emperor, Emperor Taiping naturally considered a wide range of aspects.

If Li Yi cannot be promoted, he can only be rewarded in other ways.

"I will never!"

Li Yi replied honestly with a full face.

He understands that any official or non-official position is false.

The primordial stone you get is the real one.

"Hahaha!"

Emperor Taiping laughed heartily, but he liked Li Yi more and more in his heart.

If you value others, you may quickly bow down and salute, expressing that you absolutely dare not.

But Li Yi is different, what to say, no, no.

This kind of pure-hearted hero is something you can meet but not seek, and you can absolutely believe it when you use it yourself.

"Be careful during this trip to the secret realm, and don't forget to come and play chess with me when you come back."

Emperor Taiping smiled all over his face, and said in a deep voice.

"I understand."

Li Yi saluted again, and immediately left the hall and went to the inner library.
