Zhengyang Palace, Imperial Study Room.

The old emperor played with the chess pieces on the chessboard and asked: "How is the army mobilization going?"

The old eunuch beside him said respectfully: "Everything is going on in an orderly manner according to His Majesty's wishes. At present, it seems that the assembly will be completed as planned within one month."

The old emperor snorted: "If you press these dogs hard, wouldn't they be quite capable?"

The old eunuch smiled and said: "Your Majesty is kind-hearted and has always shown mercy to his ministers. However, your Majesty is the emperor after all. As long as you show dissatisfaction even a little bit, under the power of Huanghuang, who would dare to make your own plans?"

The old emperor snorted again and asked, "Is there any movement from Liu Bai?"

The old eunuch said: "I feel very peaceful, but..."

Speaking of this, I hesitated.

The old emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Just what? If you have anything to say, just say it. I won't be too worried about you."

The old eunuch bowed and continued: "It's just that the reaction from the Zhenwu Division was a bit overwhelming. When the servant asked people to deliver the order, they were half-convinced. They had to listen to Director Liu's personal arrangements before they could obey the order."

The old emperor's hands playing with the chess pieces paused slightly, and he was silent for a moment. He glanced at the old eunuch and said, "If I ask you to take over the Zhenwu Division, can you take it?"

The old eunuch was stunned: "Why did your Majesty say this?"

The old emperor sneered and said: "No matter whether Liu Bai is loyal or not, just because my Suppression Division has become Liu Bai's Suppression Division, we cannot tolerate him anymore."

The old eunuch's eyes flashed and he was about to speak when someone interrupted and said, "Do you want Director Liu to go away? Then I will invite him back."

The old eunuch's eyes narrowed. Someone entered the imperial study, but he didn't notice at all!

Turning around to look, I was a little surprised. I never expected that this was the person coming.

The old emperor was obviously surprised, but after coming back to his senses, he immediately looked at the old eunuch beside him and said in a frosty voice: "You actually betrayed me?"

When he thought about it, with the old eunuch's ability, if he hadn't deliberately let off steam, this traitor would never have been able to walk into the imperial study room with such arrogance.

What's even more frightening is that there are many Qiankun Realm guards hidden outside the Royal Study. These guards are not from the old eunuch, but directly take orders from him. They didn't even stop this traitor. Then there is only one possibility. These Qiankun Realm guards are unknown. When did you get bought by this old castrate!

So the old emperor seemed calm, but his eyes actually showed panic.

The old eunuch said in fear: "Your Majesty knows clearly that even if you give me a hundred courages, I will not dare to betray your Majesty."

As he spoke, he stepped in front of his master.

The old emperor was startled. Could it be that he had guessed wrong?Otherwise, there is really no need for him to be so pretentious.

The old eunuch said in a deep voice: "Are all the people outside dead?! The thieves have entered the house!"

Li Qingshi kindly reminded: "Don't bother yourself, they can't hear you."

The old eunuch concentrated his attention and saw that there was indeed no movement outside. He felt cold in his heart... What's going on? They're all being killed?How many people did they come?No, no matter how many people come, they can't kill people so silently...

Before he could figure it out, when he saw Li Qingshi walking forward as if there was no one around him, he quickly waved his robe sleeves and said, "How reckless!"

Immediately afterwards, the old eunuch was shocked to find that Li Qingshi was still walking forward. The sleeves of his robe strangely did not produce any qi. Instead, a domineering qi was formed in front of his Nianhai in an even weirder way, and he had no time to deal with him. He has become a useless person.

The old eunuch's face instantly turned pale.

Li Qingshi walked up to the old emperor, lowered his head and looked at the chessboard: "Are you playing chess with yourself? It's so exciting! But as an emperor, shouldn't you be diligent and caring for the people, and seize the time to handle government affairs?"

The old eunuch was deposed, and the old emperor who had lost his reliance was no longer as calm as before. He looked at Li Qingshi with fear in his eyes. This fear was not all because he had become a piece of meat on the chopping board, but also because of this demon-like creature. The powerful method made him smell a familiar smell.

His voice was trembling: "Who are you?"

Li Qingshi was stunned, blinked and said: "I didn't expect that the majestic king of a country would start pretending to be crazy in order to survive? Don't worry, I won't kill you."

The old emperor was as stunned as a demon, and said again: "You are Liu...ancestor, you must be the ancestor, right?"

The old emperor was not crazy, nor was he pretending to be crazy. He just felt that this kind of demonic method could not be used by anyone else in the world except the one who had left a psychological shadow on him.

As for why he changed from an old man to such a young man and changed his appearance, he didn't find it strange at all. For a demonic figure like that, it must be easy to change his appearance.

The only thing he couldn't figure out was that since this person was not dead, why had he never come back for so many years?And he also pretends to be his royal grandson living among the people. What is the purpose?You're probably not so bored that you're just teasing me, right?

Li Qingshi was completely confused, and it took him a while before he suddenly had an idea... Could this old guy mistook me for Old Liu?

Just as he turned away from this thought, Liu Beidou's voice sounded: "It's rare that Li Ji still remembers me."

Hearing this voice, the old emperor seemed to have his bones removed, collapsed into a ball, and trembled: "You are indeed not dead, you are indeed not dead..."

Li Qingshi:......

I thought to myself, Lao Liu, what on earth did you do to him to make him so frightened...

Liu Beidou said: "Li Ji, Li Ji, look at me, have you done anything in these years since I was gone?"

The old emperor said to Li Qingshi: "I'm wrong, I'm wrong... I'm wrong. Daren can't live without his ancestors, and he invites his ancestors to come back and take charge."

Li Qingshi slapped the Seven Star Sword on the table and said: "You have recognized the wrong person. He is here. It's me, not him."

The old emperor looked bewildered.

Liu Beidou said: "You are just sitting here. Since I said I won't care about it, I won't care about it anymore. How can I not keep my word?"

The old emperor finally heard that the sound was indeed coming from the sword, but he still looked confused, not knowing what was going on.

Li Qingshi comforted him: "Don't worry, he can't do anything to you if he can't get out."

The old emperor was doubtful, but he knew in his heart that even if Liu Beidou couldn't do anything to him, he would still have someone in charge today. His mind suddenly changed, and he said tentatively: "If you want to be emperor, I will pass on you." Li Qingshi was determined. After looking at him for a while, he said: "Where is Director Liu being held?"

The old emperor said: "Xuanbao Hall."

Li Qingshi picked up the Seven Star Sword, turned around and walked outside the imperial study room.

Liu Beidou sent a message: "Are you leaving now?"

Li Qingshi said angrily: "I shouldn't have come! It's boring, simply boring..."

In his expectation, even if the old emperor was greedy for life and afraid of death, he would pretend to be tougher after sitting in that chair for so many years and assume a posture of preferring death to surrender.

Then he could say in a calm tone: "I won't kill you today. I will lead the Qiongzhou Rebel Army to fight here step by step, so that you can watch the things you care about most being lost bit by bit."

The old emperor had a cold nature and only valued his world, so he took the world away from him bit by bit.

As a result, these harsh words could not be found in a suitable situation. As soon as Liu Beidou said something, the old emperor who had some backbone collapsed, and Li Qingshi was choked.

Liu Beidou smiled and said: "From the current point of view, the Small World Realm is the master of this world. Where is this? Just wait, there will be more and more boring things in the future."

……

Xuanbao Hall.

Liu Bai, the director of the Suppression Department, who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, and his dead fish eyes showed an unprecedented look of shock: "Have you broken through to the small world realm?"

Li Qingshi nodded, cupped his fists and said, "Mr. Secretary."

His expression was normal, but he was also a little surprised.

Liu Bai has never shown his cultivation in front of others. Some people say that his cultivation is unfathomable, while others say that he has never practiced martial arts at all.

Li Qingshi naturally couldn't see through the depth before, but now he could see through it at a glance. The Secretary-General was actually the same as Niu Banshan Wang Xuanyi, who had already half-stepped into the small world. Compared with Niu Banshan Wang Xuan, he was even worse. More than that!

Liu Bai put away the shock in his eyes, and a look of relief appeared on his big face.

Li Qingshi went straight to the point and said: "Mr. Secretary, the old emperor has murderous intentions towards you. I wonder if Mr. Secretary is willing to go to Qiongzhou?"

Liu Bai was stunned and said: "Since you have broken through the small world realm, isn't it unnecessary to start another uprising? Wouldn't it be better to just take over the world?"

Li Qingshi shook his head and said: "Today's imperial court has long been rotten, and the same is true for local officials. It is rotten from top to bottom, so I think it is better to completely overthrow this imperial court, starting from Qiongzhou, and plow the entire world like a field. , keep the good officials and deal with the bad ones. This should be much simpler than simply taking over the world and then tinkering with it."

Liu Bai was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Yes, since you have entered the Small World Realm, it is indeed easier to rebuild the world than to reform the government. With you in the Small World Realm, so many people will not die due to wars."

Li Qingshi said: "So Mr. Secretary General is willing to go to Qiongzhou to help?"

Liu Bai looked at Li Qingshi with dead eyes, suddenly smiled, and said: "To be honest, I have arranged for the Zhenwu Division to prepare secretly, and take advantage of this time when the emperor ordered the Zhenwu Division to participate in quelling the chaos and invest in Qiongzhou."

This was the first time Li Qingshi saw the director's smile, and he was shaken, because this smile was really unflattering. Could it be that it was for this reason that he always kept a straight face... Li Qingshi put away his divergent thoughts, Asked: "A lot of the information about the Red Sleeve Recruitment sent to Qiongzhou was deliberately revealed by the Secretary-General, right?"

Liu Bai was surprised: "You actually guessed it?"

It wasn't me, it was Lao Liu who guessed it... Li Qingshi smiled and said nothing.

Liu Bai looked at Li Qingshi again and said, "So you knew that the red sleeves move had been exposed a long time ago and didn't ask them to evacuate. Was it because you were sure that I would be on your side?"

If I had known that the red sleeves move was exposed, I would have told them to withdraw... Li Qingshi could only continue to smile and say nothing.

Liu Bai sighed: "Sure enough, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead..."

He glanced at Li Qingshi, hesitated for a moment and said: "I have always had a question, I don't know whether I should ask it."

Li Qingshi said: "Mr. Secretary, there is no need to be so polite. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Liu Bai said solemnly: "Are you related to Senior Liu Beidou and Senior Liu?"

Li Qingshi was stunned for a moment, but before he could speak, Liu Beidou interrupted and said with a smile: "Okay, Liu Bai, you have good eyesight."

Liu Bai was stunned, then became excited and bowed: "The old man is still alive? That's great! That's great!"

Liu Beidou smiled and said: "I have long known that your boy is a person. Tell me, how did you know that he is related to me?"

Liu Bai was rarely in such an intense mood, and said: "Senior has given me too much praise. In fact, I didn't see it, I just relied on my intuition."

Liu Beidou said: "Intuition? That's even more amazing! It shows that you are a person with extremely high understanding."

Liu Bai was a little at a loss and said: "Oh my, senior is so praised. Senior's achievements are unmatched by others."

Li Qingshi, who was suddenly left out, blinked. He knew that Liu Beidou was the first director of the Zhenwu Division, but he had never heard the old man say that he knew the current director Liu Bai.

He only realized some things later. Although he didn't know whether the Secretary-General secretly helped him because he was worried about the country and the people or because of Lao Liu's feelings, when he went to the Princess Mansion in person to rescue him, it was definitely because of Lao Liu's face!
Li Qingshi looked at Liu Bai's respectful expression from the bottom of his heart, and felt a little boring for some reason.

Then...he suddenly realized it!
It seems that some things become boring not because I have become a small world, but because Mr. Liu likes to interrupt!

Li Qingshi said angrily: "Old Liu, I finally figured it out. Some things that were quite interesting at first became boring because of you interrupting. So let's discuss it. Can we stop talking nonsense in the future?"

Liu Beidou said flatly: "No."

Li Qingshi said angrily: "Will you die if you don't interrupt?"

Liu Beidou was silent for a moment, then suddenly sighed and said faintly: "Isn't that right? I haven't interrupted for more than 300 years. Isn't that dead?"
