My hero is myself

Jiajing was fortunate enough to survive and believed that his success in cultivating Taoism was blessed by destiny.

He also had doubts about the harem, so he moved to Xiyuan.

In his early years, Jiajing was still a qualified emperor and he was extremely smart.

He used various means to control the courtiers in his hands.

Although he is addicted to monasticism and female sex, at least he still goes to court.

The change in Renyin Palace can be regarded as a key node in the change of his mentality.

After the incident broke out, Jiajing concentrated on practicing Taoism and ignored government affairs.

As a result of Yan Song's one-party dictatorship and chaos, he has been hiding behind the scenes and focusing on balancing:

As long as the elders can fight well, he can practice Taoism without worrying about losing power.

In this way, Jiajing has lived in Xiyuan for more than ten years.

The progress of the Immortal Path is unknown, but with Mongolia in the north, Japanese pirates in the south, and internal and external troubles, the Ming Dynasty is increasingly rotten to the core.

But what does the hardship of the common people have to do with His Majesty the Emperor, who is well-dressed and well-fed?

"See the Lynx Queen!"

When the statue of Xi Niang Temple was carried into Xiyuan, Jiajing took the initiative to lead the palace people to welcome it out and performed a formal worship ceremony in front of the statue.

Er Xi lived for nearly 300 years and experienced wars and prosperity in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties.

Compared with the hero of the first dynasty, she looked at Jiajing messing around, which was quite disgusting.

But the majesty of a country treated her with thorough etiquette and respect, so she couldn't help but show off her "empress" dignity...

Er Xi appeared on top of the statue, looking down at Jiajing, her heart so excited that the groundhog barked.

But on the outside, he has a detached tone:

"Human Emperor, why do you want to see me?"

Roland turned his face away. Thanks to his professional training, he did not say anything.

How can you, an old lynx, imitate Nie Xiaoqian in speaking?

This expression and tone are exactly what Nie Xiaoqian looked like when she had just attained Buddhahood in the future and had not yet fully adapted to the change in her identity.

Hello sao!

But today's script was written by him and Er Xi together.

Er Xi had such a good temperament that she calmed Jiajing right from the beginning, and Roland couldn't help but look forward to the future development...

Jiajing saw that a beautiful girl really appeared on the moved statue. Her aura was ethereal and powerful, righteous but not evil, charming but not evil. She was definitely not comparable to ordinary ghosts.

I still don’t know that the mountain god thing is true.

She has deep magic power, and it is true that she protects one party!

She was wearing a green dress and had an extraordinary posture, as if she was truly a goddess in heaven.

...Although it has extra cat ears and a tail.

But that shows that our Lady Lynx has not forgotten her origins and kept her mission in mind. She definitely does not practice carelessly, so she cannot hide her demon body!

Jiajing was extremely excited. Having seen the true God today, he felt that the dream of immortality that he thought about day and night was very close at hand.

He bowed down again excitedly:

"Back to your Majesty, I, Emperor Zhu Houcong of the Ming Dynasty, have devoted himself to Taoism for 34 years and have never slacked off for a day. I envy the immortals' freedom and longevity. Please give me your advice!"

"The recipe for immortality is not simple."

Er Xi had a solemn look on her face and slowly mused, "God has destined you to have only a short life span. Without great determination and perseverance, it will be impossible to break through this limit."

When Jiajing heard this, he couldn't help being shocked and angry, and his voice trembled:

"Empress, please don't scare me!"

At this time, it was the 34th year of Jiajing, and he was already 50 years old.

Jiazi is 60 years.

A man who longed for immortality, and an emperor who wanted to take over the world's life and death, almost ordered someone to smash the statue.

Then, all the sycophants who offered the miraculous power of the Lynx Empress were built into the statue!

I want to live as long as heaven!

Ten years is enough for what?

Jiajing looked at Tao Zhongwen, the Taoist master he trusted most, with a look of seeking confirmation.

"Lynx Empress is a descendant of Yuan Tiangang's lineage, and her ability to reason about fate is so exquisite that even a mediocre person cannot match it."

With these words, Jiajing's skeptical attitude became more respectful and pious:

"Please, my queen, please save me!"

Erxi replied:

"I have a secret recipe that can extend your life for a hundred years, but you need three kinds of medicine."

"I am rich all over the world, even the dragon liver and phoenix marrow can be retrieved."

"It's not that troublesome. The first medicine you need is the bones of your biological parents."

As soon as these words came out, Jiajing's complexion changed slightly.

Confucian etiquette values ​​parents in heaven and earth. When Jiajing seized power from the cabinet in his early years, he relied on a great ritual discussion to discuss how he should address his biological parents and the Ming Wuzong who died suddenly.

In the end, he won and severely suppressed those civil servants, relying on filial piety.

His biological father, King Xingxian, had been dead for nearly 40 years. At this time, the grave was opened to collect the bones and used for medicine. If Yan Guan knew about it, he might not just kneel down outside the main hall until the end of the world...

"Can!"

Jiajing gritted his teeth and said.

He dared not go to court for 20 years, and used imperial skills to control the civil and military affairs of the entire dynasty. He was very confident in his courage and skill.

Er Xi's expression did not change and she continued:

"The second thing is the ten hearts of a favored minister."

"Can!"

This time Jiajing agreed happily.

Tao Zhongwen next to him turned pale.

Among the ministers whom Jiajing favored now, he was the number one.

Take ten hearts, no matter how you arrange them, and pull them all in, Yan Song and Yan Shifan will not be able to escape.

"The third thing is the hundred thousand living souls of the people."

"Can!"

Jiajing answered more confidently.

He is extremely smart and extremely selfish.

According to the traditional concepts of this era, the lives of the ministers and the people basically belong to him.

As the saying goes, if the king wants his minister to die, he must die!

It is their honor to use the lives of my ministers to extend the life of the king, so that I can enjoy it for an extra hundred years!

Jiajing was confident that he could collect these three medicinal ingredients and suppress the side effects, and bowed confidently:

"Lynx Empress, please continue to guide me."

But when he saw the cat-eared girl floating in the air in the atrium, as indifferent as a god, suddenly became cold and scolded in a cold voice:

"Human Emperor, please hear me clearly. It is unfilial to open your parents' coffins to refine medicine; it is unjust to kill loyal ministers for no reason; it is unkind to slaughter people for your own selfish desires!"

"You are unkind, unfaithful and unfilial. You neglect government affairs and indulge in traitors just to protect yourself. Do you know what a selfish and evil villain you are?"

"You, a scum, have only a thousand years of glory, and only a thousand years of glory! I hope you can take care of yourself and don't be greedy again!"

Er Xi's clear voice rang like a bell, spreading throughout Xiyuan.

I don't know how many people in the palace were so frightened that they fell to their knees.

This mountain god is so bold that he dares to directly rebuke His Majesty?

Although we all agree with what you said, he is the emperor after all.

Even if you are a true god and the army is overwhelming, you still have the ability to take pictures of your ruined temple, right?

Er Xi's change of attitude was so sudden that Jiajing was a little dazed at first.

But as she continued to reprimand her, and her words hurt her heart, the demonic emperor's expression suddenly changed.

No matter how deep the emperor's mind is, he can't hold back his anger. He pointed his halberd at Erxi and yelled:

"You monster, are you teasing me on purpose?"

Er Xi burst into laughter.

Looking at the furious emperor, she could no longer maintain her cold emphasis and sneered:

"The law is not passed lightly. You can't pass the little temptation, but you are so impatient? Do you think I care about you, a little human emperor?"

"Come here, smash her statue and the Xi Niang Temple for me..."

A group of guards rushed out.

Before he even got close to the lynx statue, he felt a brilliant sword light burst out.

The hair on my face knows how to feel cold.

The bluestone on the ground cracked, leaving a crack two inches wide and three feet deep.

A young man with a handsome face in a green robe stood tall and tall in front of the statue, holding a long and narrow jade sword that glowed faintly red, and chuckled:

"Those who cross this line will die."

Tao Zhongwen sighed softly.

After talking to Roland and Er Xi, he knew that these two people were extraordinary experts.

Not to mention that Mr. Cheng is suspected to be the human body of the demon soul Yu Qi.

As far as the words of the Lynx Empress are concerned, she is also a willful person who plays with the world and follows her moods.

They will never be able to defeat the powerful.

It's just that Jiajing desperately grasped the slightest possibility of immortality.

Tao Zhongwen had known that the meeting would most likely disappear, but he didn't expect Mr. Cheng to be so bold.

He dared to instruct Er Xi to scold Jiajing directly, and he dared to draw his sword directly in front of the emperor...

He didn't even know where his sword had been hidden before?

But he also knew that Mr. Cheng was by no means an impulsive person.

If you dare to do this, you must have something to rely on.

Tao Zhongwen didn't want to see Xiyuan bleeding like a river, so he tried his best to persuade him:

"Your Majesty, Mr. Cheng and Lady Lynx are living in seclusion and have no intention of..."

"you shut up!"

Jiajing shouted at his most trusted Taoist priest, stared at Roland with burning eyes, and quickly walked to the ravine he had cut and stopped:

"Sir, what does your peerless swordsmanship have to do with that Yu Qi?"

"Foolish Seven is me, and I am Foolish Seven."

"I knew that!"

Jiajing excitedly slapped his thighs, lifted up his dragon robe, knelt down and performed the grand ceremony of kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times:

"Old immortal, you have lived for thousands of years and have participated in creation. Please teach your disciples the art of extending life and preserving beauty."
