Chapter 963 It was Xu Quan who made the most money
After the great heat, nothing commendable happened in the next few days.
Wei Changtian still went to the palace every day to deal with some matters, while Yang Liushi still went shopping in the city when he had nothing to do.
The last "remnant" of the Jing family who escaped was dead, and his body had been transported back to the capital and buried in the imperial mausoleum with the rest of the Jing family.
After a round of major changes, most of the various departments of the imperial court have resumed operation, and even ordinary people have returned to their normal lives.
It seemed that everyone had accepted the fact that Daqian was subjugated. Apart from occasionally discussing a few words, it seemed that all the humiliation had been forgotten in just half a month.
But it is obvious that many people just bury their past deeply deep in their hearts, waiting for the day when they can see the light again.
Of course, no one knows whether this day will come.
There may be, there may never be again.
Perhaps within a few years, Su Qi will be kicked out of the palace, and someone from the Jing family, real or fake, will pop up from nowhere and sit on the throne again to restore the throne.
Perhaps after a few years, everyone will find that life under the rule of the new dynasty is not bad, and gradually no longer think about things like restoring the country.
Or maybe just like the "Rebellion against the Qing Dynasty and the Restoration of the Ming Dynasty" in the previous life, there are always some people who are unwilling to give in and want to do something, but they fail repeatedly, and then continue to try, and the struggle continues for a long time.
In short, after Wei Changtian leaves, all of the above may happen.
But at least for now, when this "Living Yama" is still in Daqian, no one in Daqian dares to resist anymore.
Therefore, the date for Su Qi's enthronement ceremony was finally set, and according to the calculations made by Qin Tian Jian, it was set on the auspicious day of the fifth day of the seventh lunar month.
The time for Wei Changtian to leave Daqian was therefore determined, the day after the completion of the ceremony, the sixth day of July.
Come and go in a hurry.
Although there are still three full months before the "Before the Beginning of Winter" promised to Liang Qin, Wei Changtian can definitely stay in Daqian for a while longer.
But the latter felt it was really unnecessary.
Even Wei Changtian didn't care at all whether the remnants of the major cadres would make a comeback in the future, or whether Su Qi could secure the throne.
His purpose from the beginning to the end was only to destroy Da Qian and make everyone in the world aware of his "retribution" style.
As for what will happen after Daqian is destroyed, Wei Changtian is too lazy to care.
What's more, he has many more important things to deal with now.
...
...
"Sir, many matters concerning the enthronement ceremony have been decided. Do you think there are any changes that need to be made?"
It's still the "temporary office", and the "central air conditioner" is still on full blast.
Su Qi bowed and handed a booklet to Wei Changtian, which contained some details about the enthronement ceremony.
It’s not like he was the emperor himself, Wei Changtian certainly didn’t have time to care about this, so he didn’t even open it, he just pushed the book back with a smile:
"Master Su, after the ceremony, I will leave for Shu, and Zimu will also go with me. By then, you will have to make your own decisions on all matters in the new court."
"So now unless you encounter something big that you can't solve, there's no need to tell me everything."
"I believe you should be able to handle it."
"This... is, the villain understands."
Holding the booklet in his hand with a complicated expression, Su Qi nodded lightly.
It seemed that he was a little nervous. I wonder if it was because he was inexperienced in becoming an emperor for the first time.
"Sir, that little man will leave first."
"Um."
"..."
Seeing Su Qi turn around and walk out of the room, Wei Changtian took a sip of tea and asked Li Zimu who was still sitting next to him.
"There are still five days left. What's the progress on Guan Kong?"
"Go back to me, sir, the news has spread."
Li Zimu replied softly: "It is now basically certain that Guan Kong and Lin Zhi are indeed in the city."
"Okay, remember not to act rashly after fishing them out."
Wei Changtian nodded: "Try not to let them escape again this time."
"It's the young master, I understand."
Li Zimu responded, then lowered his eyes, obviously hesitating whether to say something.
"What's wrong?"
On the other side, seeing her like this, Wei Changtian asked casually: "What else can you do?"
"Son..."
Li Zimu bit his lip: "Is there still no news from Tang Chen?"
"No."
Wei Changtian glanced at her, shook his head and replied: "I have sent people to Guigu Sect, but I haven't found out whether his life card is broken or not."
"But you don't have to worry too much. Their sons of heaven are protected by the fate of heaven, so they won't get into trouble so easily."
"Um......"
Nodding slightly, Li Zimu said nothing more, but her expression showed that she was still very worried about Tang Chen's safety.
When Wei Changtian saw this, he couldn't help but smile and joked:
"Hahaha, now Chu Xianping has disappeared just like Tang Chen. Why are you only worried about Tang Chen but not Chu Xianping?"
"ah?"
Li Zimu's eyes were stunned, showing a rare hint of a young woman's embarrassment.
She hesitated for a long time before finally finding a reason.
"Chu, Mr. Chu is very resourceful. No matter what he does, he always plans before taking action. He will be fine if he thinks about it."
"On the contrary, it's Tang Chen, he, he..."
The voice became softer and softer, and Li Zimu stopped talking in the middle of the sentence. I'm afraid she couldn't even convince herself with this explanation.
The real reason is now obvious. There is no doubt that Tang Chen is obviously more important in her heart.
As for why this happened, Li Zimu wasn't sure, and Wei Changtian wouldn't have the time to gossip like this.
Therefore, the latter did not continue to ask further questions, but just waved his hand and changed the topic:
"Okay, anyway, I will tell you as soon as there is news."
"You don't have to worry too much. Just focus on helping Su Qi finish the enthronement ceremony. We'll talk about other things later."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "By the way, where are Xu Quan and Zhili? Haven't they arrived yet?"
"Oh, I sent someone to notify them this morning. I think they will be here soon."
His expression gradually became calmer, and Li Zimu really stopped thinking about Tang Chen and answered seriously.
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang San's voice came from outside the house.
"Sir, Mr. Xu and Miss Zhili are here."
...
...
Soon, Xu Quan and Zhili walked into the room.
Like Wei Changtian, they had nothing to do these days. Apart from staying with the Tengu Army, they would occasionally go to the city to have fun. Over the past few days, the relationship between the two of them had warmed up a lot.
Of course, everyone now knows that Xu Quan is a son of heaven, and naturally there are many people with evil intentions who are keeping an eye on them.
It's just that no one has dared to act rashly these days. They should be still weighing the pros and cons.
After all, Xu Quan was following Wei Changtian, and if he touched him, he might suffer revenge from the latter.
Since Wei Changtian destroyed Dahui and Daqian one after another, most forces had to carefully consider whether they could afford the consequences of such a move before moving on Xu Quan.
In other words, they have to weigh how much loss they can bear for a son of heaven.
Obviously, this varies from person to person.
After all, every force has different demands in this chaotic world, so some people may think it's not worth offending a powerful enemy for a piece of destiny, but some people think it's worth it.
But for the judgment of "whether it's worth it", this is actually not the most critical thing.
The most important thing is that they must first have the ability to kill Xu Quan.
Fifth rank, good at controlling monsters, commander of the Tengu Army, brother of the new empress.
In terms of Xu Quan's strength and background alone, although it is already out of reach compared to ordinary people, it is nothing in the eyes of some big forces. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to kill such a person.
Not difficult.
However, the reality seems not to be the case.
As Wei Changtian said just now, it is not easy to kill a son of heaven who is protected by the destiny of heaven.
Nearly a month has passed since the information about the Sons of Heaven was leaked, and there is still no news about the death of any Son of Heaven.
Of course, it is possible that the murderer deliberately concealed the information to avoid being spotted.
But it is also possible that none of the sons of heaven have died yet.
Therefore, no matter how weak Xu Quan's "paper strength" is, it will not be easy to kill him.
What's more, now he is accompanied by a thousand-year-old demon all day long.
Therefore, none of the forces from all parties acted rashly, lest the result would be that someone failed to kill someone and was registered with Wei Changtian instead.
It is precisely because of this that Xu Quancai has been safe and sound so far.
But both he and Wei Changtian and Zhili knew very well that this was just a temporary silence.
It is impossible for Xu Quan to escape this whirlpool, and he will have to face it all one day in the future.
And by then, the crisis he faces may be far greater than he imagined at the moment.
...
"sit down."
In the house, after Xu Quan and Zhili arrived, Li Zimu left with a wink.
After the door was closed, Wei Changtian motioned for the two of them to sit down. Then he took out a jade box from his sleeve and said to Zhili with a smile:
"Demon King, I promised you before that as long as you come with me to Daqian Capital, I will return these three holy fruits."
"Now that you have done it, I will keep my promise and return the holy fruit to you."
"Whoa!"
As soon as he threw it away, the jade box fell into Zhili's hands.
Although Wei Changtian's words of "keep your promise" sounded shameless, fortunately, he did not cheat a second time and finally returned the Holy Fruit to Zhili.
The latter opened the jade box and looked at it. After hesitating for a long time, he thanked Wei Changtian for the first time.
"Thank you..."
"Hahaha, no need to thank you, it's just a transaction."
After laughing twice, Wei Changtian said half-jokingly: "Besides, if it weren't for the fact that this holy fruit is of little use to me, I might not be able to return it to you."
"..."
His eyes were stunned, and he was speechless for a moment, not knowing whether Wei Changtian was telling the truth or just joking.
After all, this holy fruit really has no effect on humans, but it is of great benefit to monsters.
And the reason why Xu Quan was able to break through to the first level realm was simply because the latter was a son of Heavenly Dao in the "demon way".
Wei Changtian probably had already found out about this situation from elsewhere, so he was now willing to "return the jade to Zhao intact".
But no matter what, now I have finally got the Holy Fruit back, which is good.
Anyway, I had nothing to lose, and I even got to know Xu Quan by accident...
Holding the jade box, he quietly turned his head and glanced at Xu Quan, a trace of tenderness that only a woman in love could have flashed in his divided eyes.
Although he has lived for hundreds of years and practiced Taoism for more than a thousand years, this is the first time for this demon king to "fall in love", so he cannot help but be a little "love-minded".
This even made her forget that there were actually seven holy fruits...
"Ahem, Demon King."
On the other side, Wei Changtian didn't expect Zhili to fall so deeply in love, so he quickly coughed and reminded:
"If there is no problem with these three holy fruits, then we will be clear about this matter."
"Oh, just follow what the young master said."
Zhili finally glanced at Wei Changtian: "Master Wei, I wonder if you have anything else to do?"
"If not, Xu Quan and I will leave first. We will go to the theater later."
"..."
Listen to a play???
Are you two living a comfortable life these days?!
Speechless and helpless, Wei Changtian looked at Zhi Li, then at Xu Quan who seemed a little embarrassed. Wei Changtian was silent for a long time, and then said with a wry smile:
"Demon King, Mr. Xu, I came to see you today. I actually want to ask you about your future plans."
"To be honest, I will return to Shu in a few days after Su Qi's enthronement ceremony."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "And I don’t need to say more about the current situation in the world. I think you all should be aware of it."
"So I would like to know, Mr. Xu, where are you planning to go in the future?"
"Are you going back to Shu with me? Or going to Xinfeng? Or going to Changliu Mountain?"
"If possible, you can tell me in advance."
"It's okay if you don't want to say it, just pretend I didn't ask."
Soon, Wei Changtian finally explained his main purpose of calling Xu Quan today.
The latter didn't hesitate much. He should have already made a plan and answered immediately:
"Sir, if you don't dislike me as a burden, I am willing to go back to Shu with you."
"Is it?"
Wei Changtian nodded, not surprised by this answer.
After all, compared to Fifth Demon Land and Xin Feng, although he is tall and attracts attention, he is also the thickest "thigh". Xu Quan's choice can be said to be very reasonable.
"Young Master Xu is serious. Since you think highly of me, let's go back to Shu together."
"You can continue to be in charge of the Tengu Army. If you have other ideas, you can tell me. However, you still need to make it clear to your little sister."
"Yes, sir, don't worry, I will handle it properly."
"Well, that's good..."
Since Xu Quan had already made up his mind, Wei Changtian was also happy to have an additional son of heaven under his command, so the two settled the matter without saying a few words.
After finalizing the matter, Wei Changtian turned his attention to Zhili and asked:
"Demon King, I don't know what your plan is..."
"Of course I want to be with my future husband-in-law."
Under Wei Changtian's surprised gaze, Zhili didn't hold back, nor did he feel shy. He directly took Xu Quan's hand and said confidently: "Since he is going to Shu, of course I will follow him."
"Well......"
Good guy, is the charm of the Son of Heaven so great?
During this trip to Daqian, not only did Xu Quan advance to a higher level, but he also managed to find a demon king as his wife so easily?
Although Wei Changtian still played a big role in this process, he can't help but feel a little envious now that Xu Quan is making so much money.
Gan! I don’t even have a demon king wife yet!
"well......"
Waving his hand, Wei Changtian sighed feebly under the slightly confused gazes of Xu Quan and Zhili:
