Bring some shock to the world of cultivating immortals

As an aside, the incident was apparently innocuous.

At this time, the Jinxu Diaolou has become a social gathering place for the upper class celebrities in the Thirteenth City of the North Ring Road. There is an endless stream of guests coming and going, all wearing gold and silver. Of course, there are many masters among these people, and even a senior from the world of immortality whom Zhuge Qing knew also came here to congratulate the King of Han.

This is enough to prove that the entire Thirteen North Ring Cities have been built into a huge iron barrel by the King of Han. Here, as long as your identity and status reach a certain level, you must consider visiting the King of Han and showing your loyalty. Otherwise, even if you live in the thirteen cities of Beiliang, you are not from here.

But there is one place that is different.

Beiliang.

As soon as the news of the wedding of the King of Han came out, dignitaries from all over the country had already come to Taiying to wait. But only in Beiliang, not to mention the county magistrate coming in person, not even the Imperial Academy sent anyone to send a congratulatory message to the King of Han. After the imperial students from Shangrao delivered their congratulations to the King of Han, the door of Jinxudiao Tower was closed, which meant that Beiliang, who had never appeared, would never appear.

But no one cared.

That's right, no one cares. Not only did the King of Han himself not care, but the dignitaries in other cities also showed no sign of it. In a sense, they had forgotten the small border town and the wild land.

"Qianyun, have you never doubted Beiliang?"

Looking at the closed door and the crowds coming and going in the main hall, King Han said calmly: "The county magistrates of the Thirteen North Ring Cities, even Shuangli City, which is closest to the capital, want to celebrate me. But a remote town like Beiliang refuses to send even a single imperial student, don’t you think this is wrong?”

"Is father talking about Li Kuan?"

Zhu Qianyun is not stupid, or in other words, as the daughter of the King of Han, she has to be smart. She just usually seems a little reckless in front of Zhou Li and others, but in fact, apart from Zhou Li, she is probably the one who understands worldly things the most among these people.

"Li Kuan once served as treasurer and director in the capital. He controlled thousands of books in the world and cultivated countless talents. However, he never formed a party for personal gain. He just focused on his studies. It can be said that he is a scholar who must be treated well by all dynasties."

The King of Han looked at Zhou Li who was beating his chest and regretting that he could not have fun, and said calmly: "But he is such a scholar. When the eldest brother ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to demote Li Kuan from the capital to the Thirteenth City of the North Ring. , ordering him never to return to Beijing."

"You have met your uncle, and you naturally know what kind of person he is."

After hearing what King Han said, Zhu Qianyun felt a little dazed.

Her uncle was the current emperor, Hongxi Emperor Zhu Gaochi, who was famous for his benevolence. Zhu Qianyun, who had lived in the capital for a period of time, often went to see his honest and somewhat chubby uncle, the king with thunderous skills hidden in his kindness.

Yes, how could my uncle demote such a talented scholar to a deserted small town, waste his life, and let him be a meaningless county magistrate?
That was Emperor Hongxi, the Ming Dynasty's favorite scholar, a benevolent emperor who always advocated rebirth for the people.

Moreover, Beiliang...

"You have checked the old scholar's classic files, right?"

King Han gently turned the wine glass in his hand and said softly: "Have you found it?"

Zhu Qianyun was speechless. In fact, the first thing she did after returning to the capital was to investigate the old scholar. She didn't understand why a scholar with a second-grade dragon-tiger aura would willingly serve as a sacrificial drinker for an imperial prince in a small border town.

"If you can't find it, you will never find it in your life."

Shaking his head, the King of Han breathed a long sigh of relief and said slowly: "Daughter, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there are only two things that cannot be said. One is the battle of Jingnan of the old man. And the other is the sudden change in the East Palace."

"In the Battle of Jingnan, your father and your uncle became natural enemies, and the brothers' feud became a tragedy that was bound to happen. The sudden change in the East Palace almost destroyed the Ming Dynasty. Too many people were lost in that sudden change. Everything has lost its future." He reached out his hand and gently rubbed Zhu Qianyun's head. This dragon-like man showed emotion and helplessness for the first time. He looked at Zhou Li who was standing in front of Zhuge Qing, beating his chest and feet, and said softly:
"There are still people who have become the source of everything."

"Father, what do you want?"

Zhu Qianyun's expression was complicated. She still didn't understand what King Han wanted.

right? wealth? Or the throne?

"Do you know the Li family?"

Looking at Zhu Qianyun, the King of Han said calmly: "Li Shanchang, the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty, his family was once prosperous and once became the top of the elite class of the entire Ming Dynasty. However, a blue jade case directly caused the Li family, which was once prosperous, to Everything was lost, only a few poor collateral bloodlines were able to continue."

"Zhu Yunwen, this name was once the noble emperor. His bloodline is so precious and perfect. However, even such a perfect bloodline was cut off by the old man's sword and can never be continued."

The graceful dancers showed off their dancing skills on the stage, and the noble men competed to show off their financial resources. The wealthy businessman holding the wine glass smiled flatteringly, trying to please the salt tax collector who could make him sell one hundred thousand taels of snowflake silver. The endless voice, the beautiful singing voice, and the golden building like heaven.

The Jinxu Diaolou is like the prosperous capital city. It looks extremely beautiful, and everyone's face is filled with bright smiles. But only the King of Han could see how much intrigue and intrigue there was behind those smiles, how much viciousness and viciousness were there that wanted to kill the other person.

There is also the missing Golden Snake Lady, hiding in the darkness.

Zhou Li and Tang Wan were looking for prey like Liu Si, while Zhuge Qing was taking pictures. Yun Baibai and Cen Shu were discussing the architectural features of the Jin Xu Diao Building, while Hou Jue and Guo Lingyun were still quarreling with each other. Qianhu stood still, politely declined the person who spoke to him, and then closed his eyes to meditate.

The King of Han just watched everything calmly, watching his thirteen cities in the Northern Ring. At this moment, he seemed to have everything under control, but at the same time, he seemed to have nothing. Zhu Qianyun was standing next to him. They were obviously father and daughter, but there was always an inexplicable gap.

"What do you want from me?"

Close your eyes and exhale slowly. King Han shook his head gently, his voice a little dazed.

"Yeah, what do I want?"

"I already have the rights, and the wealth is endless. Your mother is gentle and virtuous, beautiful in appearance and kind-hearted. Why should I be dissatisfied with getting this wife? I still have you as the apple of my eye, so I don't have to worry about the Han Dynasty line being unable to raise its head. Then, I What do you want?"

The smell of monsters became stronger and stronger.

"I want it..."

Slowly opening his eyes, King Han's eyes were filled with sharpness and coldness. He looked at the black shadow flashing outside the window, the sound was like a sword, and the flashing gold and iron buzzed.

"It's a choice."

"I chose to mix this glass of grape wine with the super aphrodisiac I gave you before to make King Han drunk, and then threw him into the house of the Golden Snake Lady. We directly asked them to cook the uncooked rice into red wine paella. You see how?"

Zhou Li said seriously. (End of chapter)
