Of course, it can be foreseen that even if many of these people’s families were killed, there would still be many people who would not know what was good for them and would still cling to their silver and land.
After all, these are a group of people who are determined to save the money they have before the country is destroyed.
But there was nothing to worry about. After pushing most of the annoying things directly to Zhang Juzheng, Xia Lang could finally start to realize the real purpose of his trip.
Inside the Royal Library of Shangshufang
The royal collection of books in the Ming Dynasty was not as large and numerous as one might imagine, perhaps because the Yuan Dynasty it inherited was not a dynasty that loved reading.
Judging from the collection of books that can only fill up an entire palace, it is unlikely to expect to discover peerless magical skills from these Taoist scriptures like Huang Shang.
However, Xia Lang, who had a clear goal, soon got what he wanted -
"Hmm... So it seems that although many of the stories about Liu Bowen cutting off the dragon vein are exaggerated, there are indeed similar things happening, right?"
Xia Lang flipped through the royal collection of books handed to him by the newly promoted eunuch with great interest, and threw it to Qu Feiyan beside him.
"Little ghost, come and see if what it says is correct?"
Qu Feiyan pouted and muttered a few words, but still did her translation work honestly.
To be honest, for this little girl from the Sun and Moon Sect, the experiences and developments of the past few days were really too dreamy.
How come only a few days have passed—and the person in front of me has become the de facto master of the Ming Dynasty?
Although he has not yet been crowned emperor, his attitude in the palace is more casual than that of Grand Tutor Dong. Even a fool can see who is in charge!
"Don't be unhappy, little devil. When I find what I'm looking for, I'll let Wanli make you a princess."
Xia Lang smiled and gave a huge amount of compensation, just like throwing a piece of candy to appease a child.
The eunuch who was in charge of writing and dared not look up could only pretend to be deaf, not listening, not speaking, and not looking.
Soon, accompanied by Qu Feiyan's childish voice, Xia Lang confirmed one thing -
The Liu Bowen in this world seems to have some kind of Taoist inheritance from his ancestors. During the time of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, he not only abandoned the highly-anticipated Zhang Wuji and chose the unknown Zhu Yuanzhang, but he also actually found the so-called "dragon vein" for him.
Of course, cutting the dragon vein is pure nonsense, but in this record, Liu Bowen did take Zhu Yuanzhang to a place and told him that this would be the place where he, Zhu Yuanzhang, would be born in the future.
And this mountain is - Hengshan!
This result was somewhat beyond Xia Lang's expectations. After all, apart from anything else - isn't Hengshan very close to Shuntian Prefecture?
If the dragon vein in the Tang Dynasty was Huashan, which was only a few steps away from Chang'an, it was understandable. But if your dragon vein was Hengshan, which was hundreds of kilometers away from Shuntian Prefecture, it was a bit too far...
Wow, in fact, it seems that it has never been said that the dragon vein must be within the scope of the capital, otherwise the dragon vein of the entire Ming Dynasty should be in Xiangshan, right?
Moreover, given Zhu Yuanzhang's character and the way he treated Liu Bowen later, I'm afraid that even if this Mr. Qingtian was really a man of real talent, Zhu Chongba would basically not believe it.
Xia Lang shook his head and stopped thinking about these unnecessary things. He just wanted to leave some things behind before leaving.
After signaling the eunuch in front of him to get out, Xia Lang looked at Qu Feiyan, who looked well-behaved, and said with a smile:
"Little ghost, I may have to leave the capital for a while. During this time, you will have to protect that old guy Zhang Juzheng."
"Me? How can I have such ability?"
Being suddenly entrusted with such an exaggerated task, Qu Feiyan opened her mouth slightly and said in shock
"So I will help you, help you become a peerless master."
Xia Lang put his hand on Qu Feiyan's shoulder and smiled.
"......You don't want me to practice that Qiu Yang magic skill, do you?" Qu Feiyan shrank her neck in fear.
"As long as I help you, the problem won't be a big deal. I will give you a portion of my true energy, which will be enough for you to use for a long time. And as long as I can come back, I can naturally solve your problem."
Xia Lang patted Qu Feiyan's shoulder and said comfortingly
"Of course you can refuse if you want, but not everyone has the opportunity to worship a fairy like me as their master~~~~"
Qu Feiyan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xia Lang in shock. After a few seconds, she did not hesitate to pay homage to him.
"Master, please accept my disciple's greetings!!!"
"Ha, you are really good at taking advantage of opportunities." Xia Lang smiled and rubbed Qu Feiyan's head, and then his eyes softened a lot.
"Well, it's not bad to have a disciple. In the next few days, I will teach you some martial arts and stimulate your Qiu Yang Qi, and you... just be yourself."
To Xia Lang, suddenly he had to be a teacher. He had no experience, so he didn't ask for anything extra.
Being involved in this world, it is inevitable that there will be cause and effect and bondage. But no matter what, how can a traveler who has traveled through the world not leave traces of his existence?
Besides, I am not the only one on this long journey.
Xia Lang glanced at his chat group, which showed that the first group member... was online.

Volume 27: Xia Lang's Various Transmigrations: Chapter 26, . [Xiaoao] Killing Wanli
[AI Girl (Convinced)]: I've finished reading it, and the content is really impressive (praise)
[Martial Arts (temporarily Jin Yong)]: Are you envious? Oh my, who made my cheats invincible! But you should be living a happy life too, right? (funny face)
[AI Girl (Convinced)]: Screw you...By the way, do you want to buy an artificial pod from me? I think you can use it.
[Martial Arts (Jin Yong for now)]: Are you selling something? But if you think about it carefully, it does have its uses.
The martial artist Xia Lang thought for a moment, glanced at Qu Feiyan who was trying to digest the inner energy in her body, and then flashed to the outside of the Qianqing Palace like a ghost.
As an 'immortal', it seemed a bit low to eavesdrop like this, but he didn't really care.
At this moment, in the Qianqing Palace, the Wanli Emperor was standing beside his mother, Empress Dowager Li, smashing things and roaring with a violent look on his face.
"Damn it! Damn it! They are all a bunch of traitors. One day I will kill them all!!!"
"Calm down, Your Majesty! The most important thing now is to calm down!"
Empress Dowager Li scolded her hot-tempered son, bit her red lips slightly, and thought for a moment on her beautiful and mature face, then revealed a fierce expression.
"Your Majesty, Zhang Jiangling can no longer be trusted. I think... he must be eliminated!!!"
Zhu Yijun stared at his mother, looking at her beautiful face which was becoming increasingly cruel, and he actually showed an expression of relief and relaxation.
That was the relaxation that confirmed that his mother was finally on his side, and not on the side of another man!
Whether in the present or later, there have been rumors that Empress Dowager Li and Zhang Juzheng had an affair. Although it is unofficial history, it is not groundless.
Before Emperor Wanli came of age, his education was jointly supervised by Zhang Juzheng and Empress Dowager Li, one responsible for teaching him knowledge and the other for teaching him royal etiquette and behavioral norms.
Whenever Emperor Wanli disobeyed, Empress Dowager Li would severely bring up Zhang Juzheng to intimidate him, and even threatened him to "order a new emperor to be established" together with Zhang Juzheng.
These are all real things that happened in the palace, so even if you are an emperor, without your own power and resources, there is no such thing as dignity.
But in the final analysis, Empress Dowager Li was still on the emperor's side. Under the premise that it was impossible for her to really rule the country from behind the scenes, she could cooperate with powerful ministers like Zhang Juzheng, but she could never really become Zhang Juzheng's person.
Cooperating with Zhang Juzheng was actually to consolidate the power of himself and the emperor, but now...
It was unknown what conditions Zhang Juzheng promised to obtain the full support of this evil man, which also meant that Empress Dowager Li and the imperial power she protected had become a worthless burden.
In the eyes of Empress Dowager Li, Zhang Juzheng now seemed to have become Dong Zhuo, and she was the pitiful Empress Dowager He!
She could no longer sit there and wait for death. If she continued like this, the entire power would probably fall into the hands of Zhang Juzheng. At that time, she and the emperor would be nothing more than prisoners imprisoned in the Forbidden City.
"I think so too, but with the protection of that demon..."
"Your Majesty, rest assured. According to the report from the palace servant I left with that demon, it seems that the demon is about to set off to Hengshan Mountain to look for some 'dragon vein'."
Empress Dowager Li showed an excited expression on her beautiful face, and then said in a deep voice
"As soon as that evil man leaves the capital, the emperor will immediately announce that Zhang Jiangling will be allowed to enter the palace! I have already prepared dozens of 'spear wives'. Now that the time has come, let him suffer the same fate as Han Xin!!!"
"But if that evil person takes revenge..." Emperor Wanli showed a hesitant expression.
"Your Majesty! That's the enemy who killed your brother!!!"
Empress Dowager Li interrupted Emperor Wanli's hesitation with a roar, and then her eyes were red.
Thinking of her poor little son, Empress Dowager Li shed tears. Her son had died at the hands of that evil man.
Just because he caught her bullying a few palace maids and wanted to throw them into the cauldron to cook them, she was killed on the spot by this monster without mercy.
How can those untouchables be compared with the noble royal bloodline?
No mother could tolerate the revenge of killing her son! But Queen Mother Li also deeply understood that facing this monster, they had no room to resist!
The high palace walls could not stop him, the solid palace could not protect him. And the soldiers - ha, he had slaughtered thousands of them!
If possible, Queen Mother Li would certainly want to kill him for revenge, but she would not lose her mind and do such a stupid thing!
But fortunately, this monster is not without weaknesses!
"Your Majesty, I see that the little girl next to that demon is very close to him. It seems that the two of them are a master and disciple. Once we get rid of Zhang Jiangling, take control of the government again, and control this girl, we will naturally be able to negotiate terms with that demon."
Empress Dowager Li showed a confident expression, as if she had a pearl in her hand.
"As long as the time is right, Your Majesty can summon all the soldiers in the world to eliminate the thief! Execute this evil man and set the Ming Dynasty right!"
Empress Dowager Li painted a big pie, but Emperor Wanli showed a hesitant expression.
To be honest, although he was a little sad about his brother's death, it was only a little.
This was all thanks to the "good mother" in front of him who used his brother to threaten him whenever she had the chance, saying that she would depose herself and make him the crown prince.
No one would like a competitor who might replace him, let alone he is an emperor!
As for that monster...Emperor Wanli already had his own ideas in his mind, but he also agreed with Empress Dowager Li's suggestion.
No matter how they deal with the existence of this monster in the future, at least now, they must hold on to the chips they can hold!
clap clap clap! ! !
Just as the conspiracy in the palace was going on, there was a sound of applause in front of the door.
As the emperor and his son showed fear, the door opened automatically and Xia Lang was looking at them with a playful expression.
"Oh my, I didn't expect that not long after I turned around, someone would start to challenge me without knowing the consequences."
Xia Lang looked at the trembling mother and son with a playful smile.
Angry? He really didn't have such an emotion. After all, to him, these people in front of him were just a group of ants in the true sense.
Why should we care about the conspiracy plans of ants? As long as we kill them head-on, all the so-called wisdom is nothing but meaningless delusion!
However, the conspiracy and intrigue of these guys made Xia Lang's little tolerance for them disappear completely.
He didn't mind the trouble, but he was too lazy to deal with these disgusting troubles. If someone wanted to trouble him, shouldn't they just disappear like cockroaches?
He slowly raised his finger, and Zhu Yijun immediately showed an extremely frightened expression, and immediately stepped forward and said
"My Immortal, that's not what I meant. I meant—"
call out! ! !
A bolt of moon bolt instantly pierced through Empress Dowager Li's neck. She opened her eyes wide and covered her wound which was bleeding, then fell to the ground and twitched continuously.
"It would be really troublesome if I just killed you. I would have to select an emperor, let Zhang Juzheng build momentum for him, and then put him on the throne - it would be too troublesome, too troublesome."
Zhu Yijun heaved a sigh of relief after listening to Xia Lang's words. He seemed to think that he could escape with his life, and he smiled ingratiatingly.
However, the next second, Xia Lang suddenly produced a strange silver "cabinet" out of thin air in front of him!
"Anyway, your only role as an emperor is to be a seal, and your only proof to the outside world is just your face."
Xia Lang grinned at the emperor who felt uneasy.
"So let's be straightforward. Instead of supporting an ungrateful person like you, it's better to just replace it with my android. Compared to being absolutely loyal, it is much more useful than you."
Zhu Yijun wanted to say something, but he couldn't move. He was restrained and caught by Xia Lang's inner force and came to the front of the artificial human cultivation chamber in fear.
Then, he watched in horror as 'himself' was created.
Exactly the same face, exactly the same birthmark. After scanning the Wanli Emperor who served as a template, this android incubator reproduced an identical android for Xia Lang 100%!
He walked out of the incubator. Not only his appearance, but even his clothes were ready. He looked at the terrified 'self' with emotionless eyes, then turned to Xia Lang and knelt down on one knee in front of him without hesitation.
"Master, please give the order!"
"I named you Zhu Yijun, but you must remember that you are still Emperor Wanli, the emperor in the eyes of others, and - there will be a good teacher to teach you everything else about you."
Xia Lang looked at this identical artificial man and laughed softly, then smiled at Zhang Juzheng who had hurried over the threshold.
"Zhang Yuanfu, from today on, he is your majesty."
"Wait--"
