Cultivation: I can reincarnate in the heavens

A few words fell.

Everyone present suddenly had different expressions.

Some frowned, some looked unhappy, and some looked angry.

Even Huan Shideng, who had done a good job in cultivating his qi just now, now had a frown on his face and a slightly sinister look on his face.

This time he finally caught one of Emperor Xiaochang's words and took this opportunity to make a big fuss and force Empress Dowager Li to surrender...

But all of this was ruined by Xu Xing's few words just now.

"Taoist Yan······"

"Those who discuss important matters in the Ziwei Hall are all pillars of the country. How can they be compared with the gambling in the gambling house?"

Seeing this, Wang Min, the second assistant, groaned slightly, broke the silence after everyone heard the words, and took the lead to question Xu Xing.

However, he also spoke very skillfully. He only slightly refuted Xu Xing's remarks just now, and did not use it to stir up trouble and list Xu Xingnao's charges.

Criticize the imperial officials.

Look down upon the court.

This is going to be punished by going to jail...

Of course, this was not because of his kindness, but from what Empress Dowager Li had just said, he knew that Xu Xing had an unusual identity and was suspected of being a legendary cultivator of immortality.

If possible, try not to offend.

"Yan is an outsider and doesn't understand the party struggle..."

After Xu Xing heard this, he had no intention of getting off the slope. He sneered several times, put the wine cup in his palms, and rubbed it hard.

The golden lamp instantly turned into particles of gold powder, falling from his hand like gravel, gathering into a tower on the table.

"In the past, the poor Taoist had to be helped by Emperor Zhaoshun, and then he succeeded in practicing in Guiyuan Mountain. I am here to help the descendants of Emperor Zhaoshun and continue the country, not to help you Huan Shi ascend!"

Xu Xing's eyes showed a cold light and he said bluntly.

The words fell.

The Xu royal family present suddenly seemed to have a backbone, and they looked at the Huan family's party with a hint of contempt.

Monks are transcendent from the worldly realm.

With the help of a monk who expressed his position, the Huan family and his party, even if they were "supported" by Empress Dowager Li, would be like grasshoppers after the autumn, unable to grow.

"Terrorizing the Holy One..."

"This is the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Prince Yong'an seized the opportunity and immediately stood up to attack. He bowed his hand to Emperor Xiaochang and said in a deep voice.

"A few days ago, I also heard in Shenjing that Huan Shideng had hidden armor and weapons and had the appearance of intending to rebel."

"Your Majesty must be on guard.

King Rui's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to start the conversation.

Next.

The officials and princes of the Xu royal family came on stage, accused Huan Shidengan, and poured dirty water on him. They seemed to want to take advantage of this opportunity to complete his success in one battle.

"Prime Minister Huan is struggling for the country, and he is sometimes called the prime minister when he saves us. If it weren't for... Prime Minister Huan, how could the country enjoy the peace it has today?"

“Although the matters of armor and warfare are true, the theory of rebellion is false.

"The local tyrants still have servants to protect the courtyard. Prime Minister Huan worked hard for the country and offended countless officials and princes. Without the protection of servants... you can imagine what happened to Prime Minister Huan."

The second assistant, Wang Min, and the Minister of Rites, Meng Du, were both talented people. After seeing the Xu royal family's attack on Huan Shideng, they did not even hesitate and immediately defended Huan Shideng.

They avoided the important and ignored the easy, and with one word or another, they easily dispelled all the accusations made by the Xu royal family against Huan Shi Deng'an.

but·····.

After saying these words, they did not take it lightly, thinking that "Huan Shideng" would be stable from now on with these words of defense.

After all.

When parties fight, it doesn't matter what dirty water they throw at each other. What matters is who the ruling referee favors, and who can win in these struggles...

In the past, the ruling referees were Empress Dowager Li and Emperor Guangwen. Later, as the situation evolved, Master Huan became the loudest one.

But today, it's different.

With the intervention of the monk Xu Xing, Emperor Xiaochang and Xu Xing were the real judges who decided who would win and who lost in the party dispute.

Emperor Xiaochang's confidence came from the monk Xu Xing.

"The Holy One is a descendant of Emperor Zhaoshun... so he should make his own decisions based on his Holy Heart and there is no need to worry about the poor Taoist intentions.

"A poor Taoist is a monk, and worldly dignitaries are just floating clouds to us." "It is better to lean down.

Realizing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Xu Xing smiled slightly, bowed to Emperor Xiaochang, and then said.

After he finished speaking, he took out a jade cup from his storage bag, poured himself a glass of water and wine, and then drank by himself.

"Since Taoist Master Yan said this..."

"Then I will accept Taoist Master Yan's affection for protecting our Han Dynasty and make a holy judgment."

When Emperor Xiaochang heard Xu Xing's words, he felt reassured instantly. He took off the brocade handkerchief that had been covering his face, and his pale face instantly became a little more rosy.

He showed a stern look in his eyes and rebuked: "Master Huan formed a party for personal gain, bullied the imperial power, and acted arbitrarily. Although it was beneficial to the country, his heart... was to overstep his respects, to be a person who wanted to be a countryman, and to be a thief of virtue!"

The words fell.

Huan Shideng suddenly became furious and opened his mouth to argue. Unexpectedly, before he could open his mouth, he was instantly covered by several powerful eunuchs around Emperor Xiaochang and detained beside the palace.

He looked extremely embarrassed! "What can I do?"

The second assistant, Wang Min, and the minister of rites, Meng Du, were also frightened when they saw this scene.

They did not expect that Emperor Xiaochang, who had always been cowardly, would undergo such a shocking change in character after receiving the support of the monks.

He directly put the knife on Huan Shideng's neck. Master Huan fell down.

There will be no good fruit for them to eat. The two of them were anxious.

In an instant, they thought of many things, such as immediately ordering a rebellion after leaving the palace and returning home, and they might still be able to fight.

Before entering the palace, Huan Shideng was also worried that it would be a Hongmen Banquet and made full preparations.

Once there is a slight change in the palace.

The Huan clan will immediately launch a rebellion.

But just as cold sweat broke out behind the two of them and their official robes were wet, Emperor Xiaochang spoke again.

It was like reading their thoughts.

"Wang Aiqing and Meng Aiqing don't have to worry. Just because Master Huan is going to rebel does not mean that they also intend to rebel and are of the same mind as Huan Xiang..."

Emperor Xiaochang glanced at Wang Min and Meng Du, with a smile on his lips, "Although Huan Shideng is arbitrary and intends to usurp the throne, there are many loyal people under his command."

"If this is not the case, his family is just a man from the countryside. Why do all the sages gather in his house to serve as his wings and minions?"

In just a few words, he set the tone for this rebellion crisis from the central government to the localities. It was just Huan Shideng who wanted to cause chaos, and it had nothing to do with the Huan family and his party.

"Quite smart..."

Seeing this, Xu Xing nodded slightly, with a little more praise for Emperor Xiaochang in his heart.

Huan Shideng had been in power for more than ten years, and his party members were countless. If all of them were really liquidated, it would not be long before the whole country would be in turmoil.

A single move affects the whole body.

The bad governance in the middle and later periods of the dynasty will be revealed one by one.

It’s hard to get back.

Even if he, a monk, helped Emperor Xiaochang to eradicate the rebel forces, he might not be able to withstand the general trend of "the Xu family's subjugation".

At most, the country could be extended for several decades.

What's more, it's impossible for him to really spend so much effort on this matter.

"Your Majesty is wise, the reason why we work under Huan Shideng is... to serve the country with mutual tolerance...

"If Prime Minister Huan rebels, we will swear to death to repay the country."

Meng Du, the Minister of Rites, was the first to speak. He knelt down and saluted Emperor Xiaochang and said. Then, Wang Min, the second assistant, also followed the words of Meng Du, the Minister of Rites, and said it again. "My dear friends, no courtesy."

"Master Huan lost power and the imperial court was moved.

In order to prevent chaos, the two Aiqings need to try their best to help each other. The position of chief assistant should be taken over by Wang Aiqing according to the order...

Emperor Xiaochang smiled. "I obey the decree."

Hearing this, the second assistant Wang Min was immediately happy, and he quickly bowed and saluted, and replied.

Although this position of chief assistant was probably an excess for him, it would take at least several years for Emperor Xiaochang to train officials suitable to take over the position of chief assistant.

Even if he is a paper elder... he is still a prime minister who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people!

…

…

Ask guilty, dismiss from office, remove from office, promote.

Emperor Xiaochang followed this set of procedures very smoothly. He did not look like an emperor who was not in charge of the government personally, but rather like an old man.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Huan has been dismissed..."

"It should be."

"But can you give him some dignity and let him resign and return to his hometown to retire there?"

When Empress Dowager Li saw Huan Shideng being pushed down from the palace by the eunuchs, she looked anxious and turned her head to look at Emperor Xiaochang, with a hint of pleading in her eyes.

Once Huan Shideng was executed.

Then, it is difficult to know how many days her backing party will be able to maintain its prestige.

"Empress Dowager, the matters concerning Prime Minister Huan are nothing more than trivial matters that will be reviewed by the Three Laws Division." "What is more important now is the destiny of our country and whether the tomb in Fenling Mausoleum should be moved..."

Seeing that Emperor Xiaochang was in a bad situation, Meng Du, the Minister of Rites, immediately spoke up and used this excuse to block Queen Mother Li's mouth.

"That's right." The national destiny is more important. "

“The emperor’s sister-in-law should still discuss this matter.

Several members of the Xu royal family also spoke up to help.

The Hou Party's loss of power is also beneficial to them. On this point, they are on the same front as the two civilian leaders Wang Min and Meng Du.

"The poor Taoist has limited time and will not stay in the world for a long time. I hope you will come up with a specific regulation. Should the tomb be moved or not?"

Xu Xing also opened his mouth to help.

Huan Shideng was the powerful prime minister in Fengxi country, but in his eyes, he was just an ordinary person who could be destroyed easily, and he didn't care too much.

Naturally, he didn't want to waste time on these trivial matters.

Discuss moving the grave.

It was just a "big etiquette" dispute that he deliberately promoted.

With this, a group of filial princes and grandsons were selected from the Xu royal family and followed him to the Northern Wasteland of Donghuang Prefecture to establish another kingdom...

"Even though Emperor Xiaochang has the appearance of a wise ruler, what I want is not a qualified emperor, but qualified descendants..."

"The emperor's skills are not worth mentioning to me."

"I don't know between these two dilemmas. How should you choose?"

Xu Xing covered his face with his sleeves and raised his neck while drinking. His eyes flickered for a few times and glanced at Emperor Xiaochang and other members of the Xu family who were sitting on the dragon throne.

The person who asked the question was his great ancestor.

Other abilities are not important, what is important is the word "filial piety".

Although following "filial piety" does not necessarily mean true filial piety, if one even violates Queen Xiaozhang's last edict... then there is no sense of filial piety at all.

Listen to this.

Empress Dowager Li had no choice but to stop talking about Huan Shi's ascension.

"What do the imperial uncles think about the relocation of the tomb? How to deal with it?"

The power to preside over the overall situation fell from Empress Dowager Li to Emperor Xiaochang. Emperor Xiaochang was not polite. After thinking about it for a while, he opened his mouth to discuss the matter with the three kings of the royal family.

"Can't move!"

"Since Empress Xiaozhang left an edict, if we move the grave without authorization, we are still the sons and grandsons of the dragon..."

The three kings' opinions were the same as before, and they refused to move the tomb.

"It is related to the destiny of the country. Since Your Majesty is determined to execute Prime Minister Huan, he has made his own decision to deal with the matter of moving the tomb..."

Seeing this, Queen Mother Li sneered and asked.

When Master Huan fell, he assisted Wang Min and the Ministry of Rites.

The minds of the two Huan clan members, Shangshu Mengdu, turned to Emperor Xiaochang again...

Then, just like the dilemma she faced just now, Emperor Xiaochang replaced her and became the "rear party", and would face the pressure of the Xu royal family.

And unlike her.

Moving the grave is related to the safety of Emperor Xiaochang's dragon body. If the grave is not moved for one day, Emperor Xiaochang's dragon body will continue to deteriorate...

"This matter..."

Emperor Xiaochang frowned, not knowing how to answer Empress Dowager Li's question.

He looked hesitant.

Agreeing to move the grave would be against filial piety, and the Xu royal family would definitely make a fuss about it.

The monk surnamed Yan also bluntly said that he was helping Emperor Zhaoshun's lineage, and the three royal kings were also descendants of Emperor Zhaoshun... The monk surnamed Yan would not eradicate the three royal kings like he helped him eradicate Huan Shideng. This was also the reason why the three kings of the royal family dared not to move their graves.

But if the grave is not moved...

The pain on his body was real.

"I·····"

"Determined to move the grave!"

Emperor Xiaochang glanced at the proud Empress Dowager Li, with a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes. He no longer hesitated and made up his mind.

A hammer fell.

"Your Majesty really wants to disobey your ancestors?"

The three kings of the royal family flicked their sleeves and robes, their faces filled with anger, and scolded Emperor Xiaochang.

Emperor Xiaochang remained silent.

No argument.

…

…

The next day.

Shenjing was in an uproar.

After one night, Emperor Xiaochang began to take charge of the government personally, but Huan Shideng, who had been in charge of the government for many years, was sent to Zhao Prison, and his life and death are unknown...

No one knows what happened that night. Even though there was no palace coup, how could the young emperor easily take over the power?

Until the third day.

A piece of news spread throughout the government and the public.

Emperor Xiaochang wanted to touch the tomb of Taizu's wife, Empress Xiaozhang, which aroused dissatisfaction among the Xu royal family. Three kings of the royal family, King Xu, King Rui, and King Zheng, escaped from Shenjing overnight and launched military remonstrances, hoping to force Emperor Xiaochang to change the edict.

For a moment, people were panicked.

…

…

Shenjing.

A restaurant, private room on the second floor.

"Fourth brother, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?"

"On my way here, I heard many people saying that Emperor Xiaochang wants to move his sister-in-law's tomb?"

King Weitian came to the restaurant's private room on the appointed day, crossed his legs and sat across from Xu Xing. After the five flavors of food and the third round of wine, he opened up and asked curiously.

If he didn't know that Emperor Taizu was his fourth brother Xu Xing, he would just treat it as a curiosity when he heard these rumors.

"Some mundane little things."

"It's my second brother to worry about..."

Xu Xing shook his head and smiled, telling King Wei Tian the whole story, and then said: "After more than two hundred years of reproduction, my Xu family has too many people, and my younger brother is developing in the Northern Wilderness, so I want to select some descendants to share with me. Let’s go to the Northern Wilderness together..."

His attitude towards future generations is the same as his master's attitude towards the Ai family, the Great Sword Taoist Master Ai'a.

The life and death of some descendants don't care too much.

After all, five generations have passed.

No one familiar is alive.

I just don’t want the next generation to die, as long as I can keep one for reproduction.

"From what my fourth brother said, Emperor Xiaochang seems to be a wise ruler, but it's a pity that he doesn't keep his filial piety..."

King Weitian stroked his beard and smiled.

While making fun of Emperor Xiaochang, he also secretly felt sorry for Emperor Xiaochang. If Emperor Xiaochang chose to abide by filial piety in the end...

The fourth brother of his can save Emperor Xiaochang from decades of detours by revealing some resources for cultivating immortals from the cracks of his fingers, and he can win a real person who returns the elixir with a minimum of effort.

"By the way, the murderer who destroyed the Xu family's imperial mausoleum, Brother Yu has already borrowed the shadow of

The information about killing the palace was found..."

After chatting about casual matters, King Weitian smiled, showed a serious face, and talked about serious matters. "The Hai family has a magic weapon called Yan Yun Ling, which can enhance the spiritual awareness of monks..." "And this Yan Yun Ling happens to be in the hands of a Hai family monk named Hai'an.

"Hai'an, according to Brother Yu's investigation, is the son of Song Dao and the legitimate daughter of the Hai family. Due to Song Dao's death, Song An was renamed Hai'an.

"Forty-one years ago, Hai'an accepted the mission of Feiyu Immortal Palace and came to the secular world. He passed by Fengxi Kingdom's Shenjing and stopped for half a day."

King Weitian said word by word.
