"Guardian envoy?"
Chen Chao was a little distracted, almost doubting that he heard wrongly.
At the end of the Liang Dynasty's military attache, there were only two peaks, one in the north and one in the divine capital.
After careful planning, Chen Chao had only been in the court for a few years, and he had already grown from a small local guard to the commander of the left guard. Such a promotion speed was already very rare.
"I'm just afraid that I won't be able to convince the public."
Chen Chao looked at Emperor Liang and said: "Regardless of qualifications or level, I am not the most suitable candidate."
"If there is really someone to take over the vacancy after the Guardian Envoy leaves, it should be Lord Song Lian."
Song Lian's qualifications should be the most suitable, not to mention that he is only one step away from the realm of Wangyou.
Chen Chao said seriously: "Besides, what happened last night just happened. No matter the timing or anything else, it was not suitable."
Emperor Liang said: "You know, I don't just want you to be the guardian envoy."
"I can even give you this world."
Emperor Daliang said calmly: "After what happened last night, everyone in the world knows that your surname is Chen, and that you are also of the blood of my Chen family. Although it will be a bit troublesome for you to ascend the throne in the future, I think it is generally within the controllable range. Besides, I have already cleaned up the situation."
A lot.”
Chen Chao didn't speak, he just looked at Emperor Liang in front of him, and quickly remembered the time when the two met for the first time.
"I told Your Majesty a long time ago that I have no interest in the world. It has never belonged to me, and I have never wanted to own it."
Chen Chao looked at Emperor Liang, still saying the same thing as before.
The Emperor of Daliang was silent for a moment and said: "A commoner is not worthy of being the Lord of Daliang?"
"It has nothing to do with identity."
It has nothing to do with identity, only to do with willingness.
"Didn't Your Majesty never want to be the lord of this world?"
Chen Chao looked at Emperor Liang and said: "Why let me walk the same road again."
Emperor Liang looked at him and was silent for a long time without speaking.
"It doesn't matter whether I am the emperor or not. I will continue to do whatever your Majesty wants to do."
After hearing this, Emperor Liang did not speak, nor did he insist any further.
But Emperor Liang quickly said: "I have something to tell you."
Chen Chao was startled.
"Come with me."
Emperor Daliang walked out of the pavilion and walked towards the depths of the imperial city. Chen Chao followed behind him. Soon he discovered that the two of them had bypassed the meeting hall and continued walking deeper into a place that they had never seen before.
woods, and then the two came to a lake.
There are some weeping willows by the lake, which look like the same exotic species as those by the south lake of the academy.
Emperor Liang walked through the lakeside with his hands behind his back, then came to a palace at the end, and then slowly stopped.
"There was a question last night, and your brother asked it very well. How could a person like the emperor die suddenly? There was something strange about his death."
Hearing this, Chen Chao was a little surprised, "Has your Majesty found out the truth?"
Emperor Liang said meaningfully: "There are some clues, but there is no final truth, but I can tell you."
After Emperor Liang said this, he walked to the palace.
After Chen Chao followed them in, they discovered that there was a cave here. This palace was not built from bottom to top, but from top to bottom. When they walked in, it was flat ground, but after entering the palace, they could see
To get to this palace, you actually have to dig all the way down, similar to the construction of an underground palace.
They are at a high place now.
Below, there are countless people dressed in black busy among them, with silk threads crisscrossing the space below.
From time to time, files, bamboo slips and the like would be passed around on the silk thread, and then disappear.
Emperor Liang walked down the stairs on the side, and Chen Chao followed behind him. He was a little shocked when he saw the scene in front of him.
"Fangwai monks have always regarded secular dynasties as puppets and slaves. This has always been the case. Supporting secular dynasties is just to do things for them. Before Daliang, almost all the spiritual resources they needed were supplied by secular dynasties. Every year, there was no one to know.
How many ordinary people died under slavery, but this has become commonplace for them, and it has been like this for many years."
Emperor Liang sneered: "But it's always been like this, isn't it right?"
"After the founding of Daliang, we have been trying to change this situation. All the past emperors have been working hard for this. Before, you mentioned the legacy of Emperor Lingzong and the legacy of past emperors. In fact, you were not wrong."
Emperor Daliang looked at the busy people below and said calmly: "Since the founding of Daliang, for more than two hundred years, what he has been asking for is to completely draw a clear line with Fangwai. However, I think it is not enough. Thank you.
The Minister said last night that Emperor Lingzong was wrong, but he was only right about one thing."
"Emperor Lingzong's biggest mistake was to choose the wrong person. If your brother remains emperor for a few more years, I'm afraid Daliang's two hundred years of hard work will be in vain."
Chen Chao did not interrupt, but listened silently. He knew that everything he heard today was the biggest secret of the Liang Dynasty.
"There is a ghost in Daliang, so naturally it is Fang Wai's method, but it doesn't seem to be a big surprise that Fang Wai has Daliang's spies?"
"The previous emperors here called it Baichuan Pavilion."
Emperor Daliang looked at Chen Chao, "For more than two hundred years, although Daliang has been working hard, most of the spies have not been able to access the core content of a certain sect, but it has been somewhat effective."
"The news just came. Although it is unclear, it is almost certain that the death of the emperor's brother is closely related to a certain sect outside Fang."
Emperor Liang walked to a place where files were stored, reached out and took out a file, and handed it to Chen Chao.
After Chen Chao took it, he looked at it for a few times and then asked: "What about the person who spread the news?"
Emperor Liang said: "Dead."
Chen Chao remained silent.
"After the news spread, his identity was discovered. That's what being a spy is like. We are looking for ghosts and they are looking for ghosts. It's very difficult."
"But the information is probably correct."
Emperor Daliang said with his hands behind his back: "People like the Emperor were really outstanding back then. Although there are rumors that I can be on par with the Emperor, I may not be on par with him in terms of spiritual talent, but when it comes to running the country,
In terms of strategy and strategy, I am not as good as the emperor brother, and I have been managing the country very reluctantly these years. If it were the emperor brother, I would not be like this."
"It was too bright, and people envied it. King Xin was secretly executed by Emperor Lingzong because of this matter. This is also a secret, and it is a story that has never been recorded in history books."
Emperor Daliang thought to himself and said: "Since such a brilliant person is really allowed to sit on the throne, Fang Wai naturally does not want to see it, so it is reasonable for him to take action."
Having said this, Emperor Liang suddenly remembered the story last night and said: "Of course it is also a so-called inference. The evidence is insufficient, but after thinking about it, the truth will be clear soon."
Chen Chao handed back the file, and then Emperor Liang handed it to a man in black, "They are absolutely loyal, you can trust them."
"There is one more news."
Emperor Liang said calmly: "This is the biggest secret of the Liang Dynasty."
Chen Chaojing et al. below.
"Among the previous emperors of Daliang, there are many people with outstanding talents. It is not difficult to practice to the state of forgetting worries. Once you enter this state, it is easy to live for more than a hundred years. But why do you not count your royal brother for more than two hundred years?
, Daliang has been passed down to the fourth generation? Emperor Taizong was so talented in the past, why did he only reign for forty-two years?"
Emperor Liang said calmly: "Fang Wai killed him, but the matter involved a lot of secrets and was kept secret. Only his successors knew about it."
Chen Chao was silent for a moment and then said: "After all, I won't be arrogantly entering the imperial city to take action."
Emperor Liang nodded and said: "Doing these things will naturally not be so simple."
Chen Chao frowned, "To put it this way, he is a ghost."
Emperor Liang said: "None of those arrested last night were involved in this matter."
Chen Chao didn't speak any more. At this point, both the uncle and nephew had actually understood, which meant that there was still one biggest ghost in the Liang Dynasty that they had not found, and that ghost might be bigger than all the remaining ghosts put together.
, even scarier.
Chen Chao calmly said: "I'm afraid that ghost was already there when Daliang was founded more than two hundred years ago."
"Maybe even sooner."
Emperor Liang said: "Until today, no clues have been revealed, which makes it look scary."
The ghosts on the surface are not scary, the real scary thing is the ghosts hiding in the abyss, watching them coldly all the time.
Chen Chao said: "We have to find him."
Emperor Liang said: "It's not easy."
While talking, Emperor Liang took out a small snow-white seal and handed it to Chen Chao.
Chen Chao took it and looked at it. Under the small snow-white seal, there were the words "Daliang Guardian Envoy".
Chen Chao frowned.
"After Ningping left the capital of the gods, this thing stayed with me. I will give it to you today."
Without waiting for Chen Chao to speak, Emperor Liang thought to himself and said: "Before you enter Wangyou, I will not tell the world that you are the guardian envoy. During this period, the post of guardian envoy is still vacant."
Before Chen Chao could speak, Emperor Liang smiled and said, "I appreciate this."
Chen Chao smiled helplessly.
…
…
Half an hour later, Chen Chao left the palace. Emperor Liang watched him leave by the lake, and then returned here.
"I have a will."
Emperor Liang looked down. After hearing this, many men in black stopped what they were doing.
They all raised their heads.
Emperor Daliang smiled and said: "After my death, no matter who succeeds to the throne, Baichuan Pavilion will listen to Chen Chao, and he will decide whether to inform the new emperor of the secrets here."
After hearing this, the people in black were silent for a long time, and then said in unison: "I obey the order."
Emperor Daliang nodded with satisfaction, and then said softly: "Thank you for your hard work for Daliang."
The people in black knelt on one knee one after another, with solemn expressions, "I am willing to die for Daliang, and I am willing to die for Your Majesty, and I will obey Your Majesty's will!"
Emperor Daliang shook his head and said with some emotion: "I don't want you to die. I hope you can all see Daliang in the future, a different Daliang."
