It took half a moment for Jin Buhui to send all the people in front of him away.
When silence returned to the cell again, he let out a long sigh.
At this time, he didn't know how he was feeling.
Are you sad about the decline of the great merchants? Feeling proud, you are mocking the Emperor Yuan Chen for not listening to his unfaithful advice?
I also hate those people just now. As officials of the great merchants, the country is still alive, but they all have different hearts. Otherwise, why would they be afraid of themselves and come to apologize overnight?
"Then the Yang family said they would rescue you from the capital, why didn't you agree?"
A figure suddenly appeared beside Jin Buhui, it was Su Chen.
"Although the Yang family is the last of the five great clans, it is still as strong as the clouds. If we want to save you, we are almost sure of it."
"It's nothing more than trying to get me, Jin Buhui, to go south, but I'm just trying to be nice in front of my brothers. How can I let them get what they want? This is not the way to be a friend—"
Jin Buhui snorted coldly, with a desolate look on his face, and said with a bit of seriousness: "Tell me the truth, what is the big business like today? What is the situation in the imperial capital?"
"What else can be done? All the aristocratic families have sent their disciples back to their fiefdoms, and only three or five people are left in the capital. The major Confucian academies are in a quarrel. Although local officials from all over the country have returned,
I haven't reached the level of having an affair yet, but I was frightened away by His Majesty's five major edicts. However, if the great merchants continue to decline, it will only be a matter of time."
Su Chen smiled sarcastically: "But it is said that Shi Yue took action, and the Shi family had already planned to block Baisheng Pass. This big businessman probably won't fall for a while."
"Five edicts?"
Jin Buhui immediately shook his head again, no matter what the contents of Zong Shou's five edicts were, all of them had nothing to do with him.
There was only a moment of emotion, with a heartbroken expression.
"If I had known that the big business association had failed so miserably, I should have let you leave. But now, I can't leave even if I want to-"
Su Chen was silent and raised his eyes to look into the distance. Sensing his spiritual thoughts, at this moment, dozens of powerful men in the divine realm locked the place tightly.
Although he was not afraid, there was a bit of helplessness in his eyes.
Although the Great Shang Dynasty is on the verge of collapse, there is still a lot of foundation behind it——
With these people here, it would be impossible for him to save people.
Jin Buhui was quite open-minded about his own life.
"It's useless to regret now. Judging from your words, it seems that the Sword Sect is now determined to advance and retreat with Da Qian?"
"Your Majesty is the Lord of Saints! Now that you are dominating the Cloud Realm, our Sword Sect should naturally follow his lead and do our best to help Daqian dominate! Even if your disciple is the Hao Xuan Sect, why won't you be moved by it?"
Su Chen raised his eyebrows slantingly, revealing a cold and decisive meaning: "Even if it is not the divine emperor in the prophecy, with His Majesty's behavior, I, the Sword Sect, can rest assured."
"Your Majesty? He is ready to proclaim himself emperor?"
Jin Buhui was stunned again, and then he laughed at himself: "With his achievements, he has made the country as powerful as it is now, and he can actually be emperor long ago. Forget it, please ask Brother Su to tell me, the Righteous Emperor, that I Jin Buhui, even if
Even if he dies, he won't be in trouble. Also, be careful of Confucianism and Zhu Xi——"
Su Chen's heart palpitated, and he subconsciously ignored the previous sentence and continued to ridicule: "Confucianism? Zhuzi? Confucianism determines the Spring and Autumn Period. You can have the king's image as a holy king and the great power of the Qian Dynasty. But they don't want to deny it.
It can be denied. I want to see how the hundreds of millions of Confucian scholars in this world will deal with themselves? Will they continue to obey the sage Zhu Xi?"
※※※※
Silence returned to Jiuchi Palace late at night. All the wars ended before noon.
After finishing hastily, Kong Yao rushed to the Minhe River without stopping, taking more than half of his elite soldiers and more than half of his Taoist soldiers with him.
North of the Min River, there was still an army of more than 10 million from the Great Shang. If Da Qian wanted to conquer the five southern continents, they could not allow these elite frontier troops from the Central Plains to escape back to the north of the Henglian Mountains.
It is said that soldiers are precious and quick, so there can be no delay for a moment.
Zong Shou, on the other hand, was leisurely again for the time being. The 100,000 cavalry he needed could only be mobilized after wiping out the remaining 16 million merchant armies in the north, so there was no rush.
At this moment, he was in the main hall, looking thoughtfully at a jade slip in his hand.
This is one of the relics of Chongxuan. As a master of the Great Shang Kingdom, he is naturally extremely wealthy, far beyond what other cultivators of the same level can compare with.
However, it is a pity that this person did not bring many external belongings with him this time.
Among the few relics of this person, only this jade slip aroused Zong Shou's curiosity.
What was recorded in the jade slip was a three-dimensional map. The reason why he noticed it was that what was recorded in the map was very different from the deputy tomb of Emperor Qin that he had 'visited'.
However, the area should be much larger, a difference of ten times. In addition to the 'main tomb chamber' inside, which has a round sky and a square place, it seems to be a complete world. There are countless mazes of corridors on the periphery. It can be said to be a formation. The Dharma is densely covered, and the institutions are like a forest.
Even with this jade slip in my hand, it cannot be fully detailed. Many places are vague.
"The tomb of Emperor Qin?"
Zong Shou's eyes narrowed slightly. Then he looked in front of him, a handsome man with a white face and no beard.
This is one of the most favored eunuchs of Emperor Yuanchen of the Great Shang Dynasty, Gao Ruo, the chamberlain's young eunuch.
Yin Yu was alone and was rescued by Shi Yue. Those accompanying him were not so lucky and were all captured.
And this Gao Ruo is one of them.
"Does that Imperial Master Chongxuan know the location of Emperor Qin's tomb?"
Gao Ruo's face was pale and pale, he was biting his lip and said nothing. His eyes were cold and decisive, and he looked upward without any fear.
"You are loyal!"
Zong Shou was not surprised. Since Yin Yu was praised as the leader of the ZTE in Da Qian, he naturally had enough ability to govern his subordinates. Without the full loyalty of his trusted ministers, it would have been impossible to turn the tide back then.
It is estimated that no matter how hard you torture this person, you won't be able to get anything out of him.
Unless one directly searches the soul, it is impossible to find that part of the memory about Emperor Qin's tomb.
However, when he asked that question, he was not actually prepared to learn anything from Gao Ruo's mouth.
All you need to know is that Emperor Yuan Chen and Chong Xuan are indeed planning something.
Holding the jade slip in his hand, Zong Shou thought for a moment, and then he saw Zhang Huai beside him, who seemed to be a little distracted, and his heart moved slightly.
"Zhang Qing, I know that you are a descendant of Zhang Liang from the late Qin and early Han dynasties. I wonder what you know about the tomb of Emperor Qin?"
Zhang Huai's expression straightened when he heard this, and he immediately laughed helplessly. The thing he was thinking about just now had nothing to do with the tomb of Emperor Qin, but how to persuade Zong Shou to change his title of emperor.
Before noon, hundreds of thousands of soldiers tried to persuade him to call for long live the mountain, but Zong Shou refused. In the end, he failed, which made him very upset.
But he really knew something about Emperor Qin's tomb. The question was, how did the monarch know that he was the queen of Zhang Liang?
"Emperor Qin has always claimed to be the first emperor in the Yun Realm. How could an ordinary tomb suit his wishes? No one in the world knows where his main tomb is, but an ancestor of Zhang Huai, after many visits, asserted that the tomb of Emperor Qin is the real tomb.
It should be in the East Kunlun Mountains."
"East Kunlun?"
Zong Shou raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that it was quite possible.
West Kunlun Mountain was the largest mountain before the Yunhuang era. It was only destroyed by a strong man at the end of the Yunhuang era. In later generations, Central Yunlu suffered heavy losses and its terrain changed. It is unknown where it is now.
With Emperor Qin's arrogance, it is true that only the legendary place of unparalleled power can bury his dragon body.
"So, the tomb of Emperor Qin is probably under Yunlu, within the Dark Abyss?"
At that time, the cloud land split, and many land masses sank into the sea of clouds.
Judging from the various classics that Zong Shou has seen over the years, the area where East Kunlun is located has probably sunk.
This is a bit difficult to handle. Even if we know it is East Kunlun, it is difficult to know the specific location.
Some people couldn't help but secretly curse, those strong men in ancient times were really unworthy of human beings, and a good piece of cloud land was so shattered.
However, the collapse of Yunlu began ten thousand years ago and ended eight thousand years ago after a drastic change in the world. It seems to be somewhat related to the battle of Xizi's fall.
"Zhang Huai doesn't know where exactly it is at this time. But it shouldn't matter. Someone once told me that the tomb of Emperor Qin would be discovered twelve years later."
When he said this, Zhang Huai's heart moved slightly, and his eyes showed a solemn look.
"I heard that although Chongxuan was born in a Taoist sect, he also received part of the inheritance from the ancient Qi Refiners. In the past, the Yingling Array mechanism in the tomb of Emperor Qin was jointly developed by Qi Refiners and Mohist weapon masters.
Completed. It’s really hard to say whether this person can enter the Qin Emperor’s tomb in advance——”
If that's the case, it's a bit tricky.
At that time, the Qin Dynasty collected magical iron from all over the world and cast it into twelve bronze figures.
Each one of them has the power to compete with the peak of the Holy Realm.
It is said that his body is so strong that it cannot be broken even by the environment.
The Twelve Bronze Men join forces to form a formation, which can even compete with those who are cultivators of the highest realm.
Therefore, the Emperor of the First Qin Dynasty, as a royal person, was able to suppress the three religions.
If this kind of treasure falls into the hands of the great merchants, it will definitely enable the great merchants to regain their national power.
No matter whether Chongxuan's Kuai Jade Slip is real or fake, Daqian cannot afford to take the risk.
Without hesitation, Zhang Huai produced a magic talisman. The paper talisman spontaneously ignited without fire, and Zhang Huai's face became increasingly ugly.
Before Zong Shou could ask, Zhang Huai had already spoken: "That Great Shang Guoshi is probably not dead yet. The Qi Refiner's methods are really amazing!"
Zong Shou was also shocked. That Chongxuan was backlashed by the power of heaven and his body was smashed to pieces by Qilin. Is he still alive?
Could it be that he is also an external incarnation? It doesn’t look like it?
But there is no need to wonder about this matter, just ask Gao Ruo directly.
"This matter may have something to do with your Majesty, but you only need to do a little research to find out the details. If you still have the slightest desire to save your life, you shouldn't hide it!"
Gao Ruo hesitated for a while, but when he saw Zong Shou trying to catch him, obviously trying to search for his soul, he had no choice but to speak hastily: "I don't know if he's still there. But I heard that the national master has an eighty-nine spirit refining skill.
The soul method can split the soul and incarnate dozens of times." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a member of Piaotian Literature to recommend this work. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
