Chapter 274: Old people, women and children
The old man who suddenly appeared in the river put his hand on the bow of the boat, and the big boat stopped suddenly. It was as if an anchor was suddenly dropped during the voyage, and the entire bow sank a lot. The stern of the boat was obviously knocked, huge waves surged, and everyone on the boat was immediately thrown to pieces.
And the old man¡¯s figure also fell, and the river under his feet stopped flowing instantly.
From a distance, it looks like an ant has stopped an elephant, but the elephant cannot move in the ant's hands. After blocking the warship, the old man turned to look at the palace.
Although the distance was still far away, Master Xiao, who had just arrived at the palace, suddenly felt as if he had been shot through the heart by an arrow. His face suddenly turned pale, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead in an instant. He saw the old man, so he turned around and ran away without any hesitation.
He never thought that he would meet this person in Chang'an City.
He never even thought that this person was still alive.
He turned around and left, not caring about his ambitions.
Yes, Dean Zhou¡¯s previous guess was correct.
He just wants to be the great king of Sui Dynasty. This is his ultimate goal. The status of Buddhism in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty was beyond imagination. As for the high status of King Dalun Ming in Meng Yuan, there is no need to imagine it, because everyone in the world knows that the emperor of Meng Yuan is the candidate designated by King Dalun Ming. Every Great Khan of the Meng Yuan Dynasty must receive the blessing of King Ming before he can become an emperor in the true sense.
King Ming can establish an emperor with just one thought. The king of Ming Dynasty can also depose an emperor with a single thought.
Master Xiao was extremely envious of Prince Ming's status. Although he had scolded Buddha and Maharaja more than once. But he admired the Buddha from the bottom of his heart and admired King Ming for putting divine power above imperial power. This was something that was difficult to achieve in the Sui Dynasty, but it was so natural in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty.
Therefore, Mr. Xiao will side with Prince Yi.
Because he knew that in terms of talent, wisdom, and courage, Prince Yi could not compare with the emperor. Prince Yi has some means, but there is no advantage at all compared to His Majesty the Emperor. He cannot control the current emperor, because the emperor cannot allow the advent of the era of theocratic supremacy. But Prince Yi is different, he is not strong enough. Xiao Zhenren firmly believed that with his own cultivation and the strength of Qingleshan, it would not be too difficult to help Prince Yi kill the emperor.
Once Prince Yi, who is far inferior to the current emperor, ascends the throne, it will not be too difficult for Xiao Zhenren to control the new emperor.
Because of the rebellion, the strength of the Sui Dynasty was bound to be damaged. And if Prince Yi succeeds, Prince Yi will not continue to use all the emperor's previous strength. After such turmoil, Master Xiao used his overwhelming strength to suppress an emperor who had just ascended the throne. He had this confidence.
Qingleshan¡¯s strength has been unleashed, and they can only wait for today.
He will spare no effort to support Prince Yi's rebellion and pull the emperor off the throne. By then, there will definitely be many ministers in the court who will not accept Prince Yi, even if the Queen Mother is behind him. At that time, Prince Yi could not do without him. Only with his overwhelming strength can he suppress those who are dissatisfied.
But the moment the old man appeared, he threw away all his thoughts without hesitation. Put aside everything about being the Ming King of the Sui Dynasty and creating the theocratic era.
¡° Only now did he understand why Zhou Banchuan said that he didn¡¯t understand the Yanwu Academy at all, and he didn¡¯t understand the current emperor at all. If he knew that the old man was still alive, he would not help Prince Yi in his rebellion even if he were killed. By the same token, if Prince Yi knew about the existence of this person, he would never dare to rebel.
I don¡¯t want anything anymore, I don¡¯t care about anything anymore.
This is Master Xiao¡¯s state of mind at this time.
I don¡¯t want the wealth and splendor I¡¯m about to get. The foundation that Qingle Mountain has finally built is no longer needed. The status of the Taoist leader and the boss of the world is no longer needed.
It would be nice if you could escape.
He only has one thought now, to run for his life.
But just as he turned around, the old man blocking the boat on the river in the distance reached out and pointed this way. It was just a casual finger gesture, and there was no sign of any momentum when he took action. But facing this far away?The real person's finger made everyone open their mouths in surprise.
From the other side of the river to Master Xiao, it is at least one mile away.
The old man¡¯s seemingly random finger from a mile away destroyed everything in its path! On a straight line, everything is cut in two. Walls, trees, weeds, houses, and even roads It was as if a huge and incomparable sword suddenly appeared and cut this place in half.
Master Xiao, who was a mile away, suddenly stiffened. He only had time to raise his hands and the sword intention had already arrived. With a bang, Zhenren Xiao's entire body sank into the earth under the pressure of the sword. The hard bluestone floor couldn't withstand the pressure and cracked with a bang. Master Xiao's pale hands still couldn't stop his body from sinking.
Soon, everything from his waist down was pressed into the earth.
His eyes were so wide open that they almost seemed to bulge out. Blood stains gradually appeared at the corners of his mouth, and the Taoist robe on his body had long been shattered by the sword. His arms were already covered with blood stains, and fine blood beads kept sliding down his arms. But he gritted his teeth tightly and held on, not daring to give up.
Because he knows that once he gives up, there will only be one end.
die!
Zhou Banchuan, who was chasing after him a few hundred meters away, changed his expression when he saw this scene. He looked at Mr. Xiao, who was gradually sinking under the burden, and couldn't help but murmur to himself: "I thought I had learned at least 10% or 20% but now it seems that I haven't even scratched the surface."

Tai Chi Palace
Cishou Palace
The Queen Mother, whose face was already full of wrinkles, sat on the chair with a solemn expression. Several confidant maids stood guard at the door and looked out anxiously. They seemed very nervous and were pacing back and forth uneasily.
"Please be quiet."
The Queen Mother, who was wearing the most solemn dress, said coldly, but did not open her eyes. The dress she wore was something she would only wear on the grandest festivals. For examplethe emperor ascends the throne. Even putting on this dress is a hard task, there are too many decorations on it. Moreover, the clothes are very heavy, and the coat is made of gold thread. At her current age, wearing this outfit looks even more difficult.
So she kept sitting still, even so she was already a little tired.
But she is the current Queen Mother, the most powerful woman in the harem, and even in the world of the Sui Dynasty. Today's emperor respects filial piety and is completely obedient to her. Although she is not the emperor's biological mother, His Majesty's respect for her has not diminished one bit, at least, that's what it seems on the surface.
The emperor was meticulous in all matters of etiquette.
At this time, the Queen Mother was far from as calm as she seemed. Although what she said before was only four words short, it still revealed some anxiety in her heart. She didn't know what was going on outside Tai Chi Palace at this time. If her most beloved son was defeated, there was no doubt that she would also be ruined.
"Is there any news from the East Palace?"
The Queen Mother, whose face was covered with wrinkles, couldn't help but ask, her voice trembling slightly.
An old palace maid quickly replied: "Qin Liuqi brought his people over. His Royal Highness Prince Yi only fired the trumpet half an hour ago. Since the trumpet sounded, I guess there will be no problem."
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and sighed inwardly.
"wrong"
She opened her eyes and glanced at the old palace maid and said: "If everything goes well, there is no need for Yiner to sound the trumpet at all. As long as the emperor is gone, why would he ask Qin Liuqi to arrest the prince and the queen? Guess what is going on outside the palace. If it doesn¡¯t go smoothly, be prepared. If anything goes wrong, just run for your lives.¡±
The old palace maid was stunned for a moment, then knelt down and said: "The Queen Mother we will not leave. We are your slaves in life, and we will still be your slaves in death."
The Queen Mother looked startled. She looked at her confidant's hands trembling and wanted to reach out to help. But in the end, he just stopped in mid-air: "You guys have good cultivation, it's not difficult to escape. There is no need to take risks with a waning person like me. I am already this age, what should I be afraid of?"
The old palace maid's eyes were red, she stood up and said resolutely: "Queen Mother, wait a minute, I'm going to see the situation in the East Palace."
Overall, the palace city is divided into four parts. To the south is the imperial palace, where the emperor's harem is located. On the west side is the Yeting Palace and on the east side is the Prince's East Palace. And in the middle is the Tai Chi Palace. The palace city is square, and Taiji Palace is in the center of the palace city. The construction of this palace was extremely labor-intensive. If you measure from around the palace wall to the Tai Chi Palace, the figures you get will definitely be the same and there will be no deviation.
Because the prince was young, both the queen and the prince lived in the East Palace. The emperor only had this one son, and in recent years he seemed to have become less and less womanizing. After he ascended the throne, only the queen gave birth to this child, and none of the other concubines in the harem gave birth. Therefore, it is conceivable that the emperor and the empress doted on their only son.
Early on, the emperor established a prince.
While the Queen Mother was talking to the old palace maid in Cishou Palace, the Queen Mother was also talking to the Prince in the East Palace. The queen, who was already in her thirties but still looked stunningly beautiful, was sitting by the window, holding the young prince Yang Chengqian in her arms. The queen came from a famous family and had been reading poetry since she was a child. But her fate was extremely bumpy, and she suffered a lot when she was young.
Her father was wild and uninhibited when he was young, but he was also a spendthrift. The property assigned to her father was wasted within a few years. She was so young, she watched helplessly as her father and mother were expelled from the family. Although she was left behind, she was given to her uncle and aunt to be raised by her family. She grew up with glares and scoldings in her childhood, but none of this affected her character. Although she was silent and seldom talked, she was not withdrawn. Nothing is extreme, her character is as gentle as water, and she is very insightful.
She likes to read and spent her childhood in books. No playmates, no praise from parents.
¡° Later, when the emperor chose a concubine for the fourth prince, his uncle and aunt who didn¡¯t care much about her sent her over. The fourth prince's first wife died in childbirth, and neither the children nor the adults were saved. After many years, at the emperor's urging, he chose a wife for him again. But he refused to choose a wife, only a concubine. When an out-of-power prince chooses a concubine, a truly wealthy family will not send their biological daughter there.
But who knew that this was how she and the emperor would have a happy relationship.
The fourth prince fell in love with her at first sight. Uncharacteristically, the fourth prince, who had no intention of getting married again, ignored the opposition of others and resolutely married this woman who was not of a noble birth.
Who would have thought that many years later, the fourth prince would become the current emperor, and she would become the empress of the world.
"Gan'er, are you afraid?"
She asked the little boy in her arms in a low voice.
This little boy has pink and jade-shaped hair and is exceptionally beautiful. Especially a pair of bright eyes, revealing a sense of intelligence.
"Mom, I'm a little scared."
Yang Chengqian pointed outside: "Why are they fighting?"
The queen gently stroked her son's delicate face with her cheek: "Qian'er, you can't be afraid. Because you will be the emperor in the future. How can you be afraid of the emperor?"
Yang Chengqian nodded: "My mother told me not to be afraid, so I won't be afraid!"
outside the window
Qin Liuqi looked at his men who had lost a lot, and then at the middle-aged man standing in front of the prince's palace door.
"Wu Yiyi!"
Qin Liuqi asked in a cold tone: "Will you give in or not?"
Standing at the door of the palace with bare hands, the middle-aged man wearing an iconic sapphire blue robe was none other than Wu Yiyi, whom Shen Qing had lost. He stood there with a calm face, looked at Qin Liuqi and smiled slightly: "Are you in a hurry? It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry, you continue." - Didn't finish reading?
