My description of Emperor Jianwen as a benevolent and philanthropic leader is not based on words, but I really think so.
From my exchanges with Emperor Jianwen, I am almost certain that Emperor Jianwen was such a person.
So I can say it without hesitation.
After hearing this, the second uncle nodded and said, "Well, if that's the case, it means we made the right bet on the right person."
"Bet?" I asked in confusion: "What bet?"
The second uncle said with a smile: "I believe Songhe Immortal has told you before, right? He said that we are sanctioners, that is, people who forcefully insert themselves to change the trend of the Four-Nine City. The purpose of us sanctioners is to change the order of the underworld.
, I support a person who is truly suitable to rule the underworld of the Forty-Nine Cities as the manager here."
I nodded and understood what my second uncle meant.
This person should refer to Emperor Jianwen.
The second uncle said in a low voice: "Originally, the ruler of the underworld in the Forty-nine Cities was the King of Ten Thousand Dragons. This was set by the underworld itself. Although in the past seven hundred years, Yao Guangxiao, who has great supernatural powers, used his own means to control the King of Ten Thousand Dragons.
Kill the king and support Emperor Jianwen to become the ruler of the underworld, but you have to know that after Guisuo grows up, the original forces of the underworld will return and support the King of Dragons again..."
"White robe?" I asked.
"Yes, it's the white robes. They are the higher-level leaders of the underworld. They have the right to direct the change of power in the Four Nine Cities. Now Emperor Jianwen just came out of the wild and did not get the authorization of the white robes. So if the white robes invade
Forty-nine cities, in the end, the one who will benefit will be the previous leader, the King of Dragons." The second uncle said slowly.
It became clear to me now that it turned out that the sanctions headed by my second uncle and the others were not here to wipe out all the evil ghosts in the underworld, but to support a relatively good evil ghost to become the master of the underworld.
I thought about it, but realized something was wrong. Since my second uncle wanted to support Emperor Jianwen, why did they still destroy Garuda?
"Second uncle, then why did Songhe Immortal want to annihilate Garuda before?" I asked quickly.
The second uncle said: "Master Garuda is a very treacherous person. I just saw that she is among you friends. Please tell me first what is going on?"
I quickly told my second uncle about Master Garuda and Mengyun, and then he suddenly realized and continued: "The forces in the underground palace are actually very involved. A rough look shows that Emperor Jianwen is not the only decision-maker. That is to say
Emperor Jianwen can only be regarded as a half-leader. Before there was Yao Guangxiao, and later Garuda was mixed in. We all think that Emperor Jianwen is pretty good, but Garuda and Yao Guangxiao are not supported by us... So
If we want to support Emperor Jianwen, we must eliminate other dangerous forces... and make Emperor Jianwen the only decision-maker."
Only then did I suddenly realize that it was not only my second uncle and the others who thought so, but I also had this idea in my heart.
Emperor Jianwen was a gentleman, a wise king, and a suitable candidate, but there were some villains around Emperor Jianwen.
Wild Dog is such a person. He promoted the "ghost-making movement". Just by relying on this movement, I was able to see through the ferocious nature of Wild Dog's sinister intentions.
"Second uncle, you are right. Although it is good to support Emperor Jianwen, there are too many dregs in Emperor Jianwen's team. We must eradicate these dregs." I whispered.
When my second uncle heard what I said, he looked at me with some relief: "Oh? Why do you support us? Will you support Emperor Jianwen with us?"
I nodded quickly: "Of course, I found that your method is the only one that can restore the chaos of the Four-Nine City to normal. For the sake of the Four-Nine City, I must do this, and it is my duty to do it."
After hearing this, the second uncle smiled even brighter. He picked up the wine glass and said, "Come here, for the sake of Sijiucheng."
"For the sake of Sijiucheng."
My second uncle and I clinked glasses and drank them all in one gulp.
After drinking this glass of wine, the second uncle asked with a smile: "Lin Yang, shall we act together in the future? Or shall we work separately?"
I thought about it and said, "Let's go our separate ways. The friends around me are all used to being together. If I add people from your side, I'm afraid I won't get used to it."
The second uncle smiled and nodded: "That's fine. If that's the case, I won't force it. But after the assassination of Cao Wuyou last time, Immortal Songhe has a very good impression of you. Maybe he will invite you in the short term."
Come and help, I wonder if you are willing?"
I smiled: "Of course I am willing, but it depends on whether there is a chance."
The second uncle smiled and said: "That's good. In this case, I won't bother you anymore. After drinking this glass of wine, I should go back."
Seeing that my second uncle was leaving so soon, I was still a little reluctant, but I knew that my second uncle really had something to do, and his mess was no easier to clean up than mine.
I quickly finished the glass of wine with my second uncle, and then my second uncle got up, went out, and walked through the living room towards the outside.
I quickly followed, and everyone in the living room looked at my second uncle in surprise as he came and went. Rujun stood up and asked, "Second uncle is leaving so soon?"
The second uncle turned around and smiled and said: "It's getting late, I should go back. You guys are having a good time. It's fate that we can get together during the Chinese New Year."
When he said this, the second uncle opened the door and went out, and I quickly followed him out to see him off for the last time.
After walking a few steps, the second uncle suddenly stopped: "By the way, I almost forgot."
As he spoke, he took out a large envelope from his arms and said, "This is for you."
I was stunned when I opened the envelope and saw that there was actually a thick stack of money inside.
Some of these money are very old, and they are still the banknotes of the past few editions, but some are very new, they are the new one-hundred-yuan banknote "Tuhao Gold". I roughly counted it, and it was at least five or six thousand yuan.
"Second uncle...this is...?"
The second uncle smiled slightly: "I owe you the New Year's money for twenty years. I will pay it back to you year by year this year. It's not much, but it is your second uncle's heart after all."
When he said this, the second uncle turned and left without looking back, leaving only one sentence: "Good boy, Lin Yang, you are the most promising one in our Lin family."
I looked at my second uncle's back, holding the banknotes that still had his body temperature in my hand, and suddenly felt a soreness in my nose.
Second uncle, although I don’t know what he has experienced in the past twenty years, I know that he must have lived a very sad and painful life.
I know what terrible hardships it takes to become a "real person". I came back from the dead, died twice, and was resurrected once, so that I can achieve what I am now. And my second uncle has successfully transformed from an ignorant young man into a illustrious person.
The famous "Second Master Lin" must have experienced more terrible things than me.
It’s not that the second uncle is homesick, let alone that he wants to leave his wife and son.
I think anyone with a family knows the pain of being separated from a loved one.
At this moment, I understood my second uncle. I knew that my second uncle must be suffering from something again, and there must be some more important reasons why he had to separate from his family.
Second uncle has been burdened with too much.
I don’t know when Rujun came out. She gently hugged me from behind, her sleeve-length arms wrapped around my waist, and Rujun whispered: "Second uncle is gone?"
I nodded: "Let's go, but the second uncle told me everything that needs to be said. From now on, we no longer have to be like headless flies running around in the Forty-Nine City for the catastrophe. The second uncle gave us a clear goal.
"
"That's good." Rujun said with a smile.
"Don't you want to ask what the specific goal is?" I asked with a smile.
Rujun objected gently: "I'm too lazy to ask. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Let's not talk about these annoying things, okay?"
I turned around with a smile and held Rujun in my arms. Looking at her perfect face and her beautiful eyes, I finally couldn't control myself and kissed her hard...
"Well...Lin Yang...you..." Rujun struggled: "Everyone will see..."
But I didn't care, it didn't matter even if I was seen, I just wanted to kiss the woman I loved so arrogantly. I hugged Rujun, felt her perfect curves with both hands, and wished that time could stop at this moment.
What a calamity, what a four-nine city, anyway, I want to have a good rest and relax tonight.
Rujun's body fragrance penetrated my breath, and a huge and brilliant firework bloomed in the distance.
