Fairy, please let me explain.

Chapter 736 Conspiracy

The cold current moving south from the north formed dark clouds that stretched for thousands of miles, covering the entire capital, but at this moment, a tiny crack appeared in the middle of the cloud.

As the view narrowed, a brilliant light poured down like a waterfall. The rain had just stopped, but the ground was still muddy. A new trench that stretched for more than ten miles ran across the mountains and forests like a scar on the earth.

And the beginning of all this was just a heavy sword without an edge, about ten feet long.

The terrain was changed, gaps appeared in the rolling mountains, and the dense forest was scattered as if it had been plowed by a mad bull. Broken giant trees creaked and scattered all over the ground.

A ten-foot-long sword was located at the bottom of a huge pit that was smashed open. Its surface was as black as ink, swallowing up the light from the surroundings. The morning light rising from the east stretched its shadow very long.

But at this moment,
On top of this divine heavy sword was a pair of black-soled boots with gold patterns, which pressed the front half of the heavy sword firmly into the ground.

The battle ended so quickly that people had no time to react. The whole world seemed to have fallen into some strange stagnation at this dawn.

A sick old man floating in the air.

A white-haired middle-aged man with a heavy sword.

as well as,

On the distant horizon, a terrifying military formation rose up belatedly.

Li Yaoxuan looked down at the huge pit below and the trench connecting the pit, with thought in his cloudy eyes.

For a long time,

He casually ordered the army that was ready to move on the skyline, "Don't move", and then slowly fell down.

His gaze lingered for a moment on the imperial teacher, who had only a pair of legs left, and then Li Yaoxuan slowly walked towards the prime minister who was standing on the giant sword.

As he walked, he sighed:

"Your son is stronger than the new law in the court. When I return to the palace, I can still correct the chaos and refute it with the chaotic order, but the death of the national teacher in this Huanglong Forest has really confirmed the matter. After all, this northern hunting was my order. No matter how the sect thinks, it will feel that this is a double act between us, the emperor and the prime minister. The prime minister is trying to put me in an unjust position."

Xu Yinhe slowly turned around and took back the hand with the ink ring, his eyes deep:
"There is no perfect solution in this world. When Your Majesty held this Hongmen Banquet, he should have thought that there would be countermeasures."

"Of course I have thought about it."

Li Yaoxuan stopped a few feet away and interrupted with a slightly heavier tone:

"But I didn't expect Ran Jianli to die so quickly. Should I say that you hid too well, or should I say that Ran Jianli is too weak?"

The moment they heard the voice from the sky, the three of them realized their own ways to break the impasse.

The prime minister forcibly killed the imperial teacher and implemented the new law.

The Imperial Master can either run away and let the Emperor and the Prime Minister's parties haggle over the new law while he returns to the Sword Sect to contact the sect alliance and actively prepare for war, or he can kill the Prime Minister and kidnap the Emperor's party to attack the Prime Minister's party.

If the emperor wanted to have room to turn around, he had to ensure that both the imperial teacher and the prime minister were not killed.

All three of them thought so and did so.

The battle broke out.

Ran Jianli and Xu Yinhe attacked almost at the same time.
The emperor's nine-story land palace and the surrounding ceremonial guard were instantly evaporated.

But the result was shocking.

The Imperial Master Ran Jianli was killed instantly by the Prime Minister without any resistance. With his hair slightly messy, Xu Yinhe dusted off the black dragon robe, took his boots off the heavy sword, and lowered his eyes:

"Your Majesty, now that things have come to this, instead of looking back to the past, why not look to the future? Or, Your Majesty, do you still want to continue this Hongmen Banquet?"

The puddles after the rain reflected the blue of the sky. Tens of thousands of armored soldiers on the skyline gradually gathered together silently, forming a dense military formation against the strongest.

Li Yaoxuan stood there without replying immediately, as if he was weighing the strength of the prime minister in front of him.

The murderous intent gradually spread, but was broken by a light laugh.

The wind from the north swept by with a chill, and Li Yaoxuan suddenly raised his eyes to the sky and asked:

"Let's not talk about this for now, Prime Minister, what is that thing in the sky?"

"."

Xu Yinhe looked at Li Yaoxuan with slight surprise.

God’s will is colorless and invisible; even if it comes, ordinary people cannot see it.

Li Yaoxuan glanced at his old friend and shook his head slightly:

"In terms of cultivation, I am indeed not as good as you, but after so many years, I am not that far behind. That thing just hurt you, and it was not light. I can still see that."

“You don’t have enough time.”

"That's it."

Li Yaoxuan murmured after hearing this, and had no intention of investigating further.

The deadline is approaching, and there are too many things that he wants but is powerless to do. Over time, he has become more open-minded about such things and will not force them.

He just sighed slightly:
"God, the emperor, haha, I never thought there really was such a thing above my head. If I knew, I would have to change my words about being appointed by heaven and having a long and prosperous life."

While talking,

Li Yaoxuan made a casual move towards the giant sword embedded in the ground, and the black sword, which was about ten feet long, instantly hovered and flew towards him. He grabbed it, but his hunched body seemed extremely inconsistent with the mighty giant sword. However, in Xu Yinhe's eyes, the sickly old man seemed to have returned to the heroic prince of the past.

Li Yaoxuan raised the heavy sword in front of him and looked at the man opposite him through the edgeless sword:
"Yin He, after the serious injury twenty years ago, I knew that I didn't have enough time. After knowing that my injury would erode my life span, I was really anxious. I have been thinking about ways to break the impasse and how to make the world move forward after my death, as you and I imagined when we were young. But things are like this, there is no point in being anxious, but it is actually a blessing in disguise."

"Do you still remember Queen Mu's attempt to seize power?"

"I don't want to judge a short-sighted woman, but I have to thank her for letting someone enter my sight."

"This also made me give up the idea of ​​ordering the woman to be executed. I only gave her a simple warning, cut off her channels of communication with the outside world, and continued to play the role of the emperor and his wife who treated her as equals.

"Because I need her to be alive to cover up some things, and I also need the power of the Mu family to suppress many voices and support some things, such as the crown prince regulating the country, suppressing Li Zhaoyuan, and letting Li Qingyan lead the troops outside."

"My time is coming to an end, so it's okay to tell you some things.

"The person I want to pass the throne to is Li Qingyan."

"After I was seriously injured, this daughter I sent to the northern border became the solution to the problem. In order to achieve this, I deliberately began to train her, deliberately creating a life-and-death separation for her to make her hate the sect, and also forbade the crown prince to contact her to sever her family ties."

Speaking of which,
Li Yaoxuan looked at Xu Yinhe's gloomy face and suddenly laughed at himself:
"It seems that you have almost figured it out. Your third son's "born with blocked meridians" was indeed caused by me. The purpose was to make your Xu family produce a waste to be the future emperor's husband."
