Jiang Yao climbed the snowy mountains in the snowy world in the north of the mountain, looking for the ruins of the Sanqing Taoist Palace based on his past life memories. In the distant Jiangjing of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Ming was holding a great court meeting.

"...My birthday was originally scheduled for May this year, but it has been postponed so far..."

"...it will be changed to the eighth day of next month, and the Ministry of Rites will organize it..."

Because it is the first day of the lunar month, there are many officials participating, always thousands of people, and the hall is filled with darkness.

Qin Yu, Qin Que, Shang Xuan and other important ministers who had been warned by Jiang Yao felt helpless when they looked at the emperor on the throne.

At least until now, the emperor has no doubts.

The emperor met with the Queen Mother two days ago, and the Queen Mother said that she found nothing suspicious.

Moreover, the emperor repeatedly emphasized to several people that he was real and that the impostor had not appeared.

But at the same time, the emperor also said that counterfeiters would appear at any time, which kept several people on guard.

He asked several people to remain suspicious of him and never let their guard down to prevent the real counterfeit from taking advantage of him.

Therefore, the few insiders are currently unable to judge whether the emperor is true or false.

What's even more terrible is that this matter must not be made public, cannot be told to others, and must be kept confidential.

If the people of the world knew that Emperor Ming might be fake, then the Ming Kingdom would immediately fall into a huge crisis. First of all, the morale of the Ming Dynasty's military and people would be greatly depressed.

Therefore, Qin Yu and others could only take one step at a time. Since they did not dare to judge whether it was true or false, they could only observe secretly.

Of course, everyone has preset means of self-protection. If the emperor is fake, he may take action against them.

If you do it, it will be proven to be false.

After the Ming Emperor held the imperial meeting, he first offered sacrifices to the Imperial Ancestral Temple and Shennong Hall.

He also used Zhen Jiubing's contribution to the attack and destruction of the Liang Kingdom, and granted Zhen Jiubing the title of Marquis of Xuanbing, with a settlement of 50,000 households.

He also granted the title of Marquis of Guiyi to the Demon Lord Koushan, granted him a settlement of 50,000 households, and granted him the title of Golden Ziguanglu.

As the duke of Xuanxinhou Qin Yu, who made the policy decisions, and as the duke of Jin Wei, he added 50,000 households to the settlements and made special advances.

The Queen Mother Mu Cangyue was given the title "Yide".

He also issued an edict to reward the officers and men, benevolent to the people, and sent envoys to the three kingdoms of Chu, Qi, and Sui to agree to destroy the Qing Dynasty.

He also requested the Three Kingdoms to open up the ban on ancient books, recognize the authenticity of ancient Ming books, and stop deceiving the world for the private gain of the Wu family.

The imperial examination will be held every three years to select officials.

Order Jin Yiwei Mi to find out the effect of popularizing ancient Chinese books among the people of various countries.

Everything goes like this...everything is exactly what Jiang Yao was supposed to do, without any deviation or change.

From Queen Mother Mu Cangyue to Zhongshu Ling Qin Yu, no one found anything suspicious.

Even Ah Jiu, Jiang Lingyun, and Xiao Hei often followed Emperor Ming around. Jiang Lingyun was still so clinging to Emperor Ming, and the dog guard was still so arrogant, often claiming to be the earliest Yuan Cong.

Emperor Ming also took the initiative to show Mu Yuanzhu and the Tower of Six Paths of Reincarnation to show the Queen Mother and Qin Yu that they were genuine.

Neither the Queen Mother nor Qin Yu could tell that these magic weapons were fake.

After observing the shadows of the sun, moon, and stars in the Ming Palace for several days, he also secretly reported to Zhou Emperor Yu Kuan:

"No doubts have been found. Your Majesty, Mr. Lang, does not appear to be a fake."

But after Yu Kuan talked with Emperor Ming, she felt that the ginger medicine was probably fake!

Yes, the other party does have Jiang Yao's main memory, which seems to be fine, but he still doesn't know some details about the two of them back then.

Her sixth sense also told her that the other party was probably a fake.

But the problem is that even the real ginger medicine may not remember some details. After all, men are not that careful, and many trivial details have long been forgotten.

Therefore, based on this alone, Yu Yan did not dare to completely conclude that the other party must be fake.

At least, what the other party is doing now is what Jiang Yao should do.

If it is true, it can only mean that those who pretend to be ginger medicine are more realistic and more cunning than those who pretend to be their own mysteries, and they are better fakers.

She could only tell Sunying, Yueying and Xingying that Emperor Ming was probably fake, and asked them to be careful but not to act rashly.

Besides, even if she could conclude that the ginger medicine was fake, there was currently no way to solve it.

Did you, Emperor Zhou, tell others that Emperor Ming was fake?

That only works if others believe it.

Even if others believe it, so what? What benefit does it have to the Ming Dynasty? What benefit does ginger medicine have?

It’s difficult.

Therefore, it is better to be still than to move, and just wait and see.

"North of the mountain, the ruins of Sanqing Taoist Palace..." Yu Yan thought of this and decided to go look for it.

If you can find ginger medicine, that would be the best.

Yu Kuan immediately handed over all major counter-rebellion matters to Nangong Lingyi, and headed north in the name of seclusion for cultivation.

Of course, before leaving, Yu Kuan also made a lot of arrangements to prepare for various crises that might arise if Emperor Ming turned out to be a fake.

Jiang Yao had made arrangements before, but Emperor Ming's actions were appropriate and his administration was normal, and the arrangements left by Jiang Yao were not triggered at all.

………

On this day, the guards reported that the Great Heavenly Master Xuan Miao from Daming Dao Palace came to the palace to pay an audience.

"Let her come in." Emperor Ming ordered with a playful expression.

After Xuan Miao entered, he looked at Emperor Ming silently for a while and said quietly:

"It's really similar. If it weren't for me, others wouldn't be able to tell whether you are true or false."

"Haha, you have only been under Master's disciple for thirty years. You are my junior brother, but pretending to be someone else is more difficult to identify than me, and you look more like me than I pretend to be."

"Your name is really the opposite of your personality, haha."

Emperor Ming smiled slightly: "Senior Sister, you are overrated. The reason why I pretended to be better is because I am an old friend of Jiang Yao."

"I got to know Jiang Yao as early as decades ago. I also experienced training with him in the desert and got along with him many times. It can be said that we are old friends."

"Even Yan Lazi doesn't dare to conclude that I am definitely fake. That's because I am also an old friend of Yu Kan and know her very well."

"Really? It turns out they are his old friends." Xuan Miao sneered, "At that time, the top ten young masters in Shenzhou, the ones with the right wisdom and wisdom were you and Zhen Jiubing."

"Zhen Jiubing failed to live up to expectations. She stayed in Yuqingguan for ten years but still could not find her wisdom. She finally left the mountain gate and became Jing Zhaoyin of the Ming Dynasty."

"You are more successful than Zhen Jiubing. You have found the right root of wisdom, made rapid progress in your cultivation, and even obtained the master's mantle, haha."

Emperor Ming looked indifferent, "Senior sister, why should you be so grudged? Master's favorite is you. This disciple of Shangqing Guanyimen should also be you."

"You entered the mountain sect when you were still a baby, thirty years earlier than me. Your wisdom is unparalleled in the world, and I can't even compare to you."

"But senior sister, have you ever really taken my righteous path to heart? Senior sister, ask yourself, do you really agree with my righteous path, "Tao Zang" in your heart? Not necessarily?"

"Senior Sister, with her wisdom that has never been seen in thousands of years, if she devoted herself to the Tao, practiced hard, and understood in just a few years, she would be above the seventh level of the Mahayana. How could she stop at the first level of the Mahayana?"

"I have only been in Taoism for thirty years. My master has given me careful guidance and helped me sort out my Taoism. I have been able to cultivate to the second level of Mahayana in one fell swoop. Is this because I am better than my senior sister?"

"This is because my sister is half-hearted and has a weak Taoist heart. But I can wholeheartedly pursue the Tao without any distractions. I am obsessed with the Tao, exhaust the Taoist treasures, and have three epiphanies! Therefore, thirty years can be worth thousands of years of hard work for others!"

Xuan Miao said silently. She had to admit that the younger brother who was older than her was right.

Practicing this Taoist scripture requires special wisdom and obsession. It is completely a special magical method prepared for very few people.

Although people who can practice cultivation are extremely rare, their cultivation speed can be extremely fast. A single enlightenment can directly elevate you to a great realm!

But I am indeed half-hearted about this Taoist scripture, and I don’t fully agree with it in my heart.

Not only is this junior fellow student’s cultivation and wisdom as good as mine, he is also extremely obsessed with it.

More than thirty years ago, in the Shenzhou Young Masters Competition, he only ranked ninth. Although he was glorious in Shenzhou, he was not very good compared to the top five.

However, thirty years later, he practiced Dao Zang and came from behind to become a powerful person in the second level of Mahayana.

Became the most powerful being among the top ten young masters of the year!

"What is your purpose? To disrupt the Ming Kingdom like me?" Xuan Miao asked with a slight frown.

Emperor Ming Feng Qingyun smiled calmly and said: "What? Senior sister has been a minister of the Ming Dynasty for more than a year, does she really care about the Ming Dynasty?"

He raised his eyes, shook the feather fan slightly with one hand, and touched the poisonous snake in his sleeve with the other hand, "Senior Sister, could it be that you have forgotten Master and Shangqing Temple?"

Xuanmiao snorted coldly, "Don't use Master to oppress me. You came to pretend to be Jiang Yao, and I didn't know anything about it beforehand. I am also a disciple of my sect. Shouldn't I know your purpose?"

"These days, you have done a good job as Emperor Ming, and you have followed the Jiang Yao prescription exactly. I want to know what kind of medicine you are selling."

"What kind of medicine are they selling? They sell ginger medicine." Emperor Ming chuckled and said, "Sister, you shouldn't care about these things. Master ordered me not to tell you."

"It was Master who turned me into ginger medicine. I don't have this ability myself. Even those snakes, dogs, and magic weapons are all illusions and blinding methods of Master. Without the Earth Immortal, there is no way to tell the difference."

"Without Master's three magical powers of mind reading, illusion, and blindness, I wouldn't be able to do anything. All of this is Master's arrangement, and I don't dare to make any arbitrary decisions."

"Master's heart is like the sky and it is difficult to predict. I don't know Master's plan. If Senior Sister really wants to know, then just ask Master."

"Well, if it weren't for the fact that Master and the others have some scruples and cannot be tainted by such a big cause and effect, why bother? But the big cause and effect is so terrifying that the disciples can only do their work and cannot take action personally."
