"Death?"
"Not bad."
Chen Liancang said: "Senior Zhao Suzhen originally wanted to see your Majesty after he returned to the capital. Unfortunately, you were in retreat and were stopped by the old slave."
"Senior Zhao Suzhen waited for three days. The old slave saw that he was very anxious, so he asked."
"According to what Senior Zhao Suzhen said, Senior Zhao Xizheng's lifespan is actually on the verge of being exhausted. The purpose of obtaining purple ginseng was to refine elixirs that increase lifespan."
"It's a pity that the refining of the purple ginseng elixir seems to have failed. Senior Zhao Xizheng is even more dangerous."
"After senior Zhao Suzhen advanced to foundation building, he already saw that senior Zhao Xizheng's lifespan was short, so he personally went to the overseas cultivation world to find medicine to increase his lifespan."
Chen Liancang let out a long sigh and said: "Master Zhao Xizheng didn't want Senior Suzhen to go to Huanwang Cultivation Realm at all, and even went down the mountain to look for it himself. Unfortunately, he still couldn't defeat Senior Zhao Suzhen, so he had no choice but to go back to the mountain."
"According to what senior Zhao Xizheng said, the overseas cultivation world is far away and extremely dangerous, and people's hearts are unpredictable and hidden arrows are difficult to guard against. Senior Zhao Suzhen has a simple heart. If he goes to the overseas cultivation world alone, something may happen easily."
"Fortunately, senior Zhao Suzhen is a foundation-building monk. Even if something happens, as long as you are not in danger of death, you can still escape if you want to."
"Is there an overseas cultivation world..."
Zheng Yi murmured that he had long wanted to send someone to investigate the overseas cultivation world.
The reason why Yuelong Palace was built was to cultivate young and loyal monks.
Unexpectedly, in the end, it was Zhao Suzhen who took the lead.
Fortunately, Zhao Suzhen is already a monk in the foundation building stage. Although he is in the early stage, he still has to crush all the monks in the Qi training stage.
As Chen Liancang said, as long as you are not trapped in some secret realm or formation, it is easy to leave if you want to.
Zheng Yi nodded and said: "I already know about this and will choose a day to go to Daizong Mountain to visit the Heavenly Master."
"In addition, shadow guards and navy are set up at coastal ports to monitor the movements of the sea at all times to respond to Zhao Suzhen and overseas visitors in advance."
"No!"
"How is the Yuelong Palace?"
Before Zheng Yi retreated, he specifically asked several of his monks to focus on Yuelong Palace to train young monks.
Not only the young monks collected from the people, but also the heirs of the royal family, as long as they have spiritual roots, will go to Yuelong Palace to practice.
The number of monks under his name is still too few.
According to Zheng Yi's vision, among the thirteen states, more than 230 counties, and 3,100 counties in Dayu, every county or even every county must have monks stationed there.
Only in this way can he control the entire Dayu and regard the entire Dayu as something unique to him.
In this way, all cultivation resources in the entire Dayu area will be given priority to him.
This is Zheng Yi's ultimate goal to support his own cultivation with the benefit of hundreds of millions of people.
At least thirty monks must be stationed in each state capital city.
At least ten monks are stationed in each county.
Each thread requires at least two people.
At this rate, it would take at least tens of thousands of monks loyal to him to achieve this.
But now, even including the concubines in the harem, there are only about thirty people, which is too far behind.
However, Zheng Yi also knew that there was no need to rush this matter.
It can only be based on these more than 30 monks and slowly develop, so that the number of monks can slowly increase, and finally meet Zheng Yi's expectations.
However, Zheng Yi still has some expectations in his heart, the Samsara Nine Infant Fruit!
The blood essence and blood set last time have been consumed long ago, and they have to be added this time.
And the next draft girl is also prepared for the blood sacrifice of the Nine Infant Fruit of Reincarnation.
Chen Liancang said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the monks in Yuelong Palace are practicing at a fairly steady pace, and the fastest among them are undoubtedly Xu Fengxiong and Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Xu Fengxiong, as a cultivator of Tianlinggen, has now advanced to the late stage of Qi training. His speed is extremely fast and he is now consolidating his foundation."
"This man's talent is rare in the world. Taoist Priest Tianxingzi and Senior Xiong Gang both like him very much and almost give him everything they have to teach him."
"Even the Imperial Concubine went to see it once and taught some of the experiences of Tianlinggen monks."
"Other disciples also practice very hard and have almost no time to rest."
"Well, not bad."
Zheng Yi nodded slowly and said: "By the way, there is one more thing. The disciples of Yuelong Palace have different spiritual qualifications. In addition to cultivation, let's see if any of them are talented in the various arts of cultivation."
"I will give a batch of books on various cultivation arts, exercises, etc. for the disciples to choose from."
"Yes...Your Majesty!"
During the battle on Jueling Island, among the dozens of storage bags Zheng Yi collected, there were several jade slips that recorded various cultivation techniques such as alchemy, weapon refining, formations, and puppetry.
The most famous one is called "Qinghe Danfa".
It is the lifelong learning of an alchemist named Qing Hezi who was in the Golden Alchemy Period. It records the alchemy methods he has learned throughout his life, as well as various precautions.
Most importantly, thirty-six first-level elixir recipes and eleven second-level elixir recipes were recorded.
Among them, it includes the foundation-building elixir recipe!
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing."
"What's the matter?"
"The Imperial Concubine has family members coming to visit. I don't know how to arrange it?"
"Family? Who is it?"
"The aunt of the Imperial Concubine is named Tuoba Wugou, and the niece of the Imperial Concubine is named Tuoba Lingyun."
Zheng Yi asked: "Where is the Tuoba family?"
"The Tuoba family... are still in Yunmengze and have not left."
"Hmph! I asked them to move the whole family to Tianshou Mountain, but they have delayed it until now. It seems that they are not convinced."
"The Tuoba family has been inherited for thousands of years, and it has been longer than the founding of Dayu. It is normal to have this idea."
Zheng Yi said coldly: "But today is different from the past. I will not let the Tuoba family continue to be independent of Dayu!"
"Where are these two people? I'm going to see them."
"Qingying Palace!"
"Show off in the Qingying Palace!"
"No!"
Qingying Palace, located in the northeast of the palace, was built by special personnel from the Ministry of Industry.
The overall palace is located on a small lake.
The lake is sparkling, with thousands of lotus flowers blooming, and it is very quiet.
Through the small bridge connecting Qingying Palace, Zheng Yi came to Qingying Palace.
"This slave has met Your Majesty!"
Many palace maids and eunuchs, led by the chief aunt, hurriedly went out to have an audience.
Zheng Yi frowned and asked: "Where is the person in charge of the palace?"
The leading aunt said quickly: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is practicing in seclusion and has not left the palace for half a year."
"Now in the palace, there are two relatives of the imperial concubine."
"I, Tuoba Wugou, have met Daoyou Zheng."
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded, and a middle-aged woman wearing a gray robe came out.
Behind her, followed a 28-year-old girl who seemed to be quirky.
The girl is wearing a long pink dress with red tassels, and a goose-yellow ribbon tied around her waist. She has not applied any makeup, but she is quite childish, like a lotus flower that has just opened, making her adorable.
It seems that these two people are Tuoba Wugou and Tuoba Lingyun.
Zheng Yi said: "This must be Fellow Taoist Tuoba Wugou and Fellow Taoist Tuoba Lingyun?"
"Not bad."
Zheng Yi suddenly asked: "How is my palace?"
Tuoba Wugou didn't know why Zheng Yi asked this, but he still said loyally: "With abundant spiritual energy and outstanding people, it is truly a blessed land."
"Oh? Since it is the blessed land of Cave Heaven, why are the Tuoba family still unwilling to move?" "Please forgive me, fellow Taoist Zheng. After all, Yunmengze is the ancestral land of my Tuoba family. Everyone in the family is a little emotional after leaving. Waiting for comfort.”
"Thousands of years ago, my Tuoba family has been living here, with millions of people under my command..."
"Limin?"
Zheng Yi shook his head and said: "Those are my people, not your Tuoba family."
"This..."
Tuoba Wuga gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, forgive me, but it's just a matter of timidity after leaving home."
"I have given you the Tuoba family two peaks full of spiritual energy, which are enough to support thousands of monks and disciples of your Tuoba family. This is a great favor that other sects and families do not have."
Zheng Yi said unceremoniously: "Just ordinary people, how can this be the reason why your Tuoba family doesn't want to leave?"
"After all, for what?"
Tuoba Wugou's expression changed, and he finally said helplessly:
"My brother was seriously injured and has not recovered yet. The elixir I refined cannot completely cure him."
"Brother, we don't have much time left, and I don't want to leave Yunmengze before I die."
"Huh?"
Zheng Yi said in surprise: "Tuoba Wufeng is not dead yet?"
"What are you talking about!"
Tuoba Lingyun on the side raised his eyebrows and suddenly said: "My uncle was injured by you, and Aunt Qingying was also forcibly married by you. Now you are driving us away from Yunmengze."
"It's... so abominable!!!"
"Aura!"
Tuoba Wugou's expression changed and he quickly pulled her.
"Lingyun is still young and speaks like a child. Please forgive me, Your Majesty the King of the Sea."
Zheng Yi said indifferently: "Of course I won't argue with a little girl, but I still have to explain it."
"Tuoba Wufeng intended to assassinate me and killed many of my people and subordinates. I have given her a great favor by not killing him. What else do you want?"
"As for Tuoba Qingying, the same is true."
"Those who are defeated should pay the price. Do you think that if your uncle and your aunt want to kill me, I will be killed obediently?"
"Ah, this..."
Tuoba Lingyun was stunned and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it at all.
Zheng Yi also immediately thought of something. It seemed that the Tuoba family had not told Tuoba Lingyun the true ins and outs of the matter.
In other words, it is a changed version.
This made Tuoba Lingyun a little hostile towards Zheng Yi, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Zheng Yi looked at Tuoba Lingyun up and down, and suddenly smiled and said: "Lingyun is still young, and I like her so much, why not stay in Qingying Palace for a few more days?"
"There are also Fairy Peak and Canglong Peak that I have prepared for your Tuoba family. You two can also take the time to visit them."
"Hmph! You don't need to tell me, we will wait here for my aunt to come out of confinement."
"Go back."
"No!"
Looking at Zheng Yi's leaving figure, Tuoba Wugou sighed secretly in his heart.
Is this the magnanimity of an emperor?
Shoushan himself had secretly conducted a reconnaissance that day, and his spiritual energy was extremely rich. It was ten times, even twenty times or thirty times more dense than their Yunmengze spiritual energy!
Tianshou Mountain is the main peak, and there are ten other peaks surrounding it, guarding Tianshou Mountain.
In order to win over their Tuoba family, Emperor Zhengyong was even willing to give two mountain peaks.
Fairy Peak and Canglong Peak.
The spiritual energy of these two peaks is no less intense than that of the main peak, Tianshou Mountain.
There is even a spiritual river beneath the Fairy Peak, which is the place with the most abundant spiritual energy among the ten branches.
Such a great favor, if it were in the past, the Tuoba family would have already integrated into it.
These gifts were all given by Emperor Zhengyong for Tuoba Qingying's sake.
However, the eldest brother Tuoba Wufeng is now seriously injured and on the verge of death and cannot move easily.
And after all, the Tuoba family has lived in Yunmengze for thousands of years. They want to leave for a while, but they don't know how much they will pay.
For this reason, the clan even divided into two factions, arguing all day long.
She came to Beijing with Tuoba Lingyun this time to seek Tuoba Qingying's opinion.
After all, as a foundation-building monk and the only foundation-building monk in the entire Dayu territory, her opinions carry a lot of weight in the Tuoba family.
As long as she opens her mouth, the future of the Tuoba family has almost been decided.
"What are you so proud of!"
Tuoba Lingyun curled her lips and said: "Auntie, this emperor is so rude. He is not like a member of the clan at all..."
Tuoba Wugou shook his head and said: "Emperor Zhengyong is the Emperor of Dayu after all. He doesn't care about you because of your Aunt Qingying's face."
"Be careful what you say in front of him in the future. If you offend this person, our Tuoba family may be overthrown at any time!"
In today's Yunmengze, in addition to their Tuoba family, there is also Dayu's 100,000-strong navy.
If there is any change in the Tuoba family, one hundred thousand navy will capture the entire Tuoba family.
Under such heavy pressure, she had to leave for the capital to seek help from Tuoba Qingying.
Tuoba Lingyun curled her lips and said: "Lingyun knows, but when will Aunt Qingying be able to come out of confinement? We have been waiting for more than a month."
"Soon, soon..."
Tuoba Wugou suddenly thought of something, and then said nervously: "I heard that Emperor Zhengyong is very lustful and has seventy-two concubines in the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard. He seems to have fallen in love with you just now."
"Ah..."
Tuoba Lingyun said anxiously: "He, he is Aunt Qingying's Taoist companion. According to the relationship, I have to call him uncle. How, how could he like me?"
"Auntie, don't you think too much..."
"No."
Tuoba Wugou shook his head and said: "I have inquired secretly that Emperor Zhengyong is very lustful towards women. There are three concubines in the palace who are related to each other as mother and daughter, and they still live together."
"Ah..."
"Also, he intercepted more than a hundred elderly palace ladies who were about to leave the palace, and actually had to break their bodies before they were willing to let them out."
"Ah..."
"So, to sum up, you must not move around at will in this palace, and you must not stay alone with him."
Tuoba Lingyun was anxious: "Then, what should I do?"
Tuoba Wugou rolled his eyes and quickly thought of something.
"In this way, from now on until you and I leave the palace, you will stay in your Aunt Qingying's Qingying Palace and will not leave."
"In Qingying Palace, Emperor Zhengyong may not dare to do anything to you because of your aunt's face, but he wouldn't dare to say that elsewhere."
"Well, what about you, aunt?"
"Me?"
Tuoba Wugou's face turned red, he glared at her and said, "Auntie, I'm older. No matter how impatient Emperor Zhengyong is, he can't possibly fall in love with me."
"Besides, I have to go to Tianshou Mountain."
"Tianshou Mountain? Auntie, haven't you been there?"
"Last time I went there secretly. This time I got Emperor Zhengyong's approval. Of course I have to go there openly."
"Not only Tianshou Mountain, but also Yuelong Palace, which my aunt heard about, is also under Tianshou Mountain."
"Your Aunt Qingying wrote before that there is a metallic Tianlinggen monk in Yuelong Palace!" (End of Chapter)
