Speed ​​through the cultivation of immortality!

Reminded by Ji Changsheng, Ying Hongye took the initiative to speak: "I dare not approach Fairy Linglong. Fairy Linglong is not good at swordsmanship, but she is one of the top five swordsmen in the world. She deserves to be the best in the world."

Ji Changsheng silently gave his mother-in-law a point.

She is worthy of being my mother-in-law.

The areas you are not good at can be on par with the areas where others are best.

well.

Both my stepmother and mother-in-law have started to gain points.

Fortunately, he didn't need to make a choice and could just hug all the thighs.

Ying Hongye continued, "Is Elder Bai going to endorse Lord Sheng in the name of Xuandu Temple?"

Bai Xiuran recovered from Ji Changsheng's life experience and chuckled, "I am just friends with Lord Sheng, you don't have to think too much. If Lord Sheng is really guilty of heinous crimes, our Xuandu Temple will naturally not sit idly by, and I will definitely not ruin official business because of personal feelings."

"That's better." Ying Hongye said.

Bai Xiuran continued to smile: "Don't worry, young lady. Xuandu Temple and Danqing Pavilion have always been of the same origin. When our Bai family's chief wine master got married, the Qinglian Sword Immortal also came in person to congratulate him. The Bai family and Xuandu Temple have bottom lines in their conduct and will never confuse right and wrong."

This is so false.

But Ji Changsheng found that neither Ying Hongye nor Li Daoyan refuted.

Ji Changsheng silently memorized the person named "Bai Jijiu".

Although this was the first time he had heard of the Green Lotus Sword Immortal, since he was known as one of the Five Great Sword Immortals together with his mother-in-law, he knew that he was definitely not an ordinary person and should be one of the top powerful people in the world.

He went to attend Bai Jijiu's wedding.

The title "Jijiu" generally refers to the person in charge of the education system in charge of the Imperial College or Taixue.

Is he the big guy who was once responsible for the evolutionary system of the Ying Kingdom?

Ji Changsheng's heart trembled slightly.

Li Changxi was right. The Bai family down the mountain and the Bai family up the mountain seemed to be two completely different species. The Bai family up the mountain were all worthless and vulnerable, while the Bai family down the mountain seemed to have many big bosses.

Even though Bai Xiuran, who seemed to be only a middle-class member of the Bai family, spoke and acted with great sophistication.

Seeing that Ying Hongye seemed to be at a loss as to how to continue speaking, Ji Changsheng took over the conversation: "Bai Jijiu is Bai Jijiu, and Sheng Taiping is Sheng Taiping. They are not the same person, so naturally they cannot be generalized. Lord Sheng, you know our Danqing Pavilion. I cultivate righteousness, and when I pass by Sheng Country, I will seek justice for the victims and promote the righteousness of heaven and earth when I encounter injustice. There are many rumors in Shengjing City about you, Lord Sheng, who take human lives lightly, especially the 'Taiping Fudi' you recently developed, which has caused many people to lose their families. Do you have any explanation for this?"

Sheng Taiping's expression remained unchanged. He picked up the wine glass and said with a smile, "Our first meeting was not a pleasant one. Brother Li doubted my character. I will drink three glasses of wine as punishment."

Without waiting for Ji Changsheng to speak, Sheng Taiping took the initiative to drink three glasses of wine.

To show sincerity.

Give enough face.

Originally, he planned to use courtesy before force. Now that he learned from Cao Mengde that Ji Changsheng was the illegitimate son of the Green Lotus Sword Immortal, he had to pay more attention to etiquette.

"What Brother Li said about Sheng's disregard for human life is completely a rumor. As for the Taiping Fudi causing many people to lose their homes, that was because of the evil spirits, and it has nothing to do with me. In order to resolve this matter, I also spent a lot of money to invite Elder Bai from Xuandu Temple to personally perform a ritual to expel those wandering ghosts. Elder Bai can testify for me."

Sheng Taiping denied it completely, and Bai Xiuran nodded and said, "It is true."

Ji Changsheng said coldly: "Lord Sheng, what you mean is that those ordinary people wronged you? Do they have such courage?"

Lord Sheng sighed and said, "Brother Li, you may not understand the common people in this world. Many ordinary people are ignorant. They don't understand me, let alone the difficulties of the court."

Chapter 55: High-end illusions often require only the simplest operations

Sheng Taiping said confidently: "Those ordinary people only see my glory and fame as the richest man in Sheng Country, but they don't know how I walk on thin ice every day, let alone how much I have contributed to the entire Sheng Country."

"You have made great contributions to Shengguo?"

Li Daoyan couldn't hold back his complaints.

Sheng Taiping said seriously: "Of course, the commercial tax I contribute to Shengguo every year is an astronomical figure, not to mention that I also support thousands of associates, and help tens of thousands of families live happily. Those common people don't understand me, and they think I am rich and unkind. Alas, they really don't understand. I make money not for myself, but for Shengguo. I do the blessed land business not to make money, but to make the treasury more full. If there is no me, Sheng, I am afraid that the civil and military officials of the court will not even be able to pay their salaries. Not to mention that Shengguo has become increasingly powerful in recent years. Isn't it the money earned from the blessed land business that has improved the national strength?"

At this point, Sheng Taiping shook his head and said, "The common people are ignorant. They eat with their bowls in hand and curse their mothers when they put them down. It's fine if I bear a bad reputation. I just hope that the three disciples of Danqing Pavilion will not misunderstand me. I believe that history will give me a fair evaluation."

Li Daoyan was speechless after hearing Sheng Taiping's words.

Ying Hongye and Ji Changsheng almost vomited.

Especially Ji Changsheng, he was already feeling some physical discomfort.

"Lord Sheng, so not only are you not unkind because of your wealth, but you are also a hero who helps the development of Sheng Country?" Ji Changsheng said sarcastically.

Sheng Taiping said: "I can't be called a hero, but everything I do is within the scope of business. There is absolutely no behavior that takes human life lightly. Everything is reasonable and legal. If not, I wouldn't have done business to this point today. Elder Bai of Xuandu Temple would be the first one to not let me go."

In the end, Sheng Taiping still moved Bai Xiuran out.

Ji Changsheng looked at Bai Xiuran.

"Does Elder Bai also agree with Lord Sheng's opinion?"

Bai Xiuran nodded.

He and Sheng Taiping are in the same camp, so he would naturally speak on Sheng Taiping's side.

Although the Green Lotus Sword Immortal is powerful, the Bai family is not afraid of him. They just don't want to offend him easily.

He believed that the Green Lotus Sword Immortal would not want to offend the Bai family for no reason.

Therefore, he did not have much psychological pressure, and defended Sheng Taiping, "Little friend Li, you don't know that before Lord Sheng started doing business, Sheng's national strength was actually very weak, and the people were so poor that they couldn't even get enough food. Since Lord Sheng started doing business and created the blessed land business, Sheng's national strength has become stronger day by day, and the people of Sheng have also begun to get rid of poverty. Although Lord Sheng has mixed reviews in the outside world, in my eyes, he is indeed a key figure in the development of Sheng and can be called a hero of Sheng."

Ji Changsheng clapped his hands and praised, "What a clever and eloquent man who confuses right and wrong."

Sheng Taiping and Bai Xiuran's expressions changed slightly.

"Brother Li, why did you say this?"

Ji Changsheng sneered, "Shengguo is protected by Xuandu Temple and is far away from war. In a few decades, as long as they can recuperate, have a sufficient population, and there is no external war, the lives of the people will naturally get better and better. This is a historical necessity. What does it have to do with a mere businessman? It is really shameless to take credit for what others have done."

"Brother Li, you are too young."

Bai Xiuran spoke calmly and did not get angry because of Ji Changsheng's words.

"Heroes must come first before the times can be created. The common people are ignorant and can be easily influenced by others' schemes and tricks, leading to wrong judgments about the situation and Lord Sheng. I used to think Lord Sheng was rich but unkind, but later I urged the Six Gates of Sheng State to investigate, and only then did I discover that the conspiracy against Lord Sheng was actually a conspiracy of the Ying State."

After a pause, Bai Xiuran continued, "Sheng State was once a territory of Ying State, but later became independent from Ying State, and Ying State has always held a grudge against it. Only the enemy knows who the real threat is. Ying State regards Lord Sheng as the key to Sheng State's rise, so it has done many things against Lord Sheng, including spreading rumors and slandering him, and even framing him. Brother Li, you just mentioned the incident of the night parade of a hundred ghosts in Taiping Fudi. Later, it was found that Ying State was behind it. In fact, it was Ying State's fault behind all this."

Ying Hongye almost couldn't hold back.

Fortunately, Ji Changsheng quietly patted her hands under the table, and she was able to control herself and not curse out loud.

"Brother Li, this is the case file of the Six Gates investigation. The evidence is conclusive."

Sheng Taiping clapped his hands, and someone immediately brought a pile of case files.

"I don't want Brother Li to misunderstand me, so I have prepared these a long time ago. Please check them out, Brother Li."

Ji Changsheng simply flipped it twice and handed it to Ying Hongye.

The case files are all real.

The chain of evidence also seems to be complete.

However, when he framed Bai Guanlin, it was even more flawless than this.

If he believed in just one word, he would be Li Daoyan.

Forget it, I’m insulting my cheap nephew.

Li Daoyan didn't believe this kind of case file or evidence.

Sheng Taiping could also guess that Ji Changsheng would definitely not believe it.

So he has a second trick.

"I know that Brother Li has a preconceived notion and is likely to believe that I am in cahoots with the Six Sects of Sheng State. It doesn't matter. In fact, Elder Lu of Danqing Pavilion once had the same misunderstanding about me as Brother Li. But after an in-depth investigation, he finally realized that he had wronged Sheng, so he gave Sheng a pound of ink as an apology gift."

Sheng Taiping clapped his hands again.

A pound of ink was placed in front of Ji Changsheng.

Sheng Taiping smiled and said, "The Green Lotus Sword Immortal learned swordsmanship at the age of fifteen and fought against many princes. He became a writer at the age of thirty and served as a minister. I have always admired him. It is fate that I met Brother Li. Could you give this pound of ink to the Green Lotus Sword Immortal on my behalf to express my respect for him?"

Ji Changsheng and Sheng Taiping looked at each other for three seconds, then shifted their gaze to the Dianhua Mo in front of them.

This pretty boy Sheng Taiping does have something going for him.

These words were both kind and serious, and they gave both face and substance.

Not only did it give Ji Changsheng enough reasons to stand idly by, it also hinted to Ji Changsheng that he also had connections in Danqing Pavilion, and the subtext was that as long as he stopped interfering, this pound of ink would be a gift to him.

The so-called giving it to the Green Lotus Sword Immortal was naturally just an excuse.

When faced with this kind of situation, most people would probably just try to make money through harmony.

But Ji Changsheng is not an ordinary person.

He is the successor of the Qinglian lineage of Danqing Pavilion.

Therefore, he cannot be corrupted by wealth and honor, cannot be moved by poverty and humbleness, and cannot be bent by power and might.

Under Sheng Taiping's surprised gaze, Ji Changsheng decisively accepted the pound of ink.

then……

"In Danqing Pavilion, the elders taught us that without investigation, we have no right to speak. Lord Sheng is right. I have a preconceived impression of you, which is biased. If Lord Sheng has a clear conscience, can you take us to Taiping Fudi and let the three of us brothers and sisters conduct a field investigation in person. If there is really no problem with Taiping Fudi, the three of us brothers and sisters will definitely apologize to Lord Sheng."

Sheng Taiping laughed loudly: "That's what I want, but I dare not ask for it."

He naturally thought that Ji Changsheng was just going through the motions.

He had already made arrangements at Taiping Paradise, so how could there be any problem?

I didn’t expect that the illegitimate son of the Green Lotus Sword Immortal is so sensible.

Sheng Taiping was very happy. If he could make friends with the illegitimate son of the Green Lotus Sword Immortal with just a pound of ink, this deal would definitely be a huge profit.

"Brother Li, please, I will lead the way for you."

"please."

……

A quarter of an hour later.

A peaceful and blessed land.

Sheng Taiping confidently said to Ji Changsheng: "Brother Li, please look, the place ahead with abundant spiritual energy, singing birds and fragrant flowers is the Taipingfu I developed... Where is my Taipingfudi?"

Sheng Taiping wiped his eyes subconsciously.

Ahead, there are mountains of bones, howling resentful souls, gusts of cold wind, and a chilling demonic aura.

Ji Changsheng's expression suddenly changed, and his "righteous spirit" rose to the sky: "You bastard, you still say you don't take human life lightly."

Chapter 56 Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm not a demon

Sheng Taiping is a stupid person.

Where is my huge peaceful and blessed land?

What the hell is this human ghost country in front of me?

He is considered to be well-informed, but this is the first time he has seen such a situation.

After feeling Ji Changsheng's righteous spirit and undisguised murderous intent, Sheng Taiping shuddered and finally came to his senses. He said loudly: "Brother Li, don't be impulsive. Impulsiveness is the devil. This must be a misunderstanding."

Ji Changsheng, who is full of righteousness and uprightness, is like a god from heaven, and is not moved at all by Sheng Taiping's sophistry.

"The facts are all there. The promised land of peace and happiness turned out to be a land of ghosts on earth. Sheng Taiping, what else do you have to quibble about?"

Sheng Taiping wanted to try to argue again.

But in a hurry, he also lost his quick wits.

There is no way. His peaceful and blessed land has turned into a land of ghosts on earth. Who can bear this?

It was obvious that all the wandering ghosts he had released before had been captured by Bai Xiuran.

What is this thing in front of me?

Sheng Taiping could only say: "Brother Li, this must be a cult monster framing me."
