"Greetings to your majesty, and hello to my sister-in-law."
"No need to be polite."
Li Ping'an raised his hand to support her, and Mu Ningning took the initiative to move forward, holding Yao Ji's catkin back and sitting down together.
Mu Ningning's dormitory is not an office space. The main hall here is also decorated with warmth and warmth. At this moment, Li Ping'an is sitting behind the long table at the main table, and Mu Ningning is holding Yao Ji beside him to talk.
Yao Ji was also afraid of delaying Li Ping'an's enlightenment, so she quickly explained her purpose.
She said: "Brother, sister-in-law, I always feel a little irritable while practicing in heaven. I want to go for a walk in the mortal world. Is that okay?"
Mu Ningning was a little strange: "You can go out whenever you want. How can our Li family have such family rules?"
"this……"
"Do you want to go to Nanzhou?" Li Ping'an squinted and smiled.
Yao Ji sighed: "Brother knows me."
"Did someone say something to you?" Li Ping'an said, "Nanzhou is in troubled times. If you want to go out for a walk, you can go to Dongzhou, Xizhou, or the eight surrounding realms."
Yao Ji said: "No one said anything to Yao Ji. It's just that Yao Ji has recently gained enlightenment. It seems that part of Yao Ji's destiny has not yet been fulfilled."
"That part of the destiny has been abolished."
Li Pingan shook his head:
"Moreover, now I have not interfered with the thoughts of living beings, and Heaven cannot hide my misdeeds.
"There is no destiny... What you accidentally saw during your practice are just the traces left by the original way of heaven. There is no so-called great catastrophe of becoming a god in this world."
Yao Ji was slightly startled.
She asked in a low voice: "Then, if I don't go to Nanzhou, won't it have any impact?"
"Of course not," Li Ping'an smiled, "Not just you, I won't allow Long Ji to go down, because it's really not necessary."
Yao Ji blinked, seeming a little disappointed.
Li Pingan knew what she was thinking.
In this world...she doesn't seem to be a real person, her background is too strong.
In short, the reason why Yao Ji came up with this idea is actually from a sense of being needed. When the sense of need is satisfied, she will gain a sense of existence and recognition.
This is one of the topics that Li Pingan recently realized.
Li Ping'an said warmly: "Have you been stuck recently?"
"Well," Yao Ji blinked, "How does brother know?"
"Nothing can be hidden from me," Li Ping'an squinted and smiled, "The reason why you have hit the bottleneck now is because you are uncertain, lack of goals, and don't know how to take the next step."
Yaoji chanted softly.
"In this way," Li Ping'an said, "How about I arrange a small position for you to keep you busy?"
"Brother, please give the order!"
"Okay, okay," Li Ping'an smiled proudly.
The difference between Yao Ji and other immortals in heaven lies in her origin.
Chaos creatures.
Li Ping'an said sternly: "There are not many worries in heaven and earth. Now there are only one small one, one big and two catastrophes left. Needless to say, these small catastrophes. Heaven has taken back the power of the great road, but the big catastrophe is the end of heaven and earth."
Yao Ji and Mu Ningning listened carefully.
Li Ping'an's voice inadvertently had a sense of chanting:
"I have previously promulgated four plans to fight against the end of the world. Among these plans, the most important thing is to hunt down the innate gods and demons.
"Yao Ji, I know you don't want to face the matter of your background here..."
"Brother! I do."
Yao Ji immediately said:
"I have thought about it before, if I can help with this. After all, although I am not as comfortable as the peacock fairy in the sea of chaos, my soul will not have much resistance."
Li Ping'an thought for a moment: "In this case, I will leave such important rules to you."
Yao Ji's eyes shone brightly, she stood up and turned outside the table, kneeling down on one knee in front of Li Pingan.
"In the end, we will definitely fulfill our mission!"
"Don't be so serious," Li Ping'an said with a smile, "Get up, I haven't told you what to do yet."
"Hey, aren't you going to fight against the innate gods and demons?"
"The innate gods and demons are in the sea of chaos, and each of them has the power of a semi-saint."
Li Ping'an opened his left hand, and several intertwined auras appeared on it, which then condensed into a jade tablet.
He pushed the jade sign over and said with a smile:
"It contains a spell with no other effect. If you cast it in the Sea of Chaos, you can mark those innate gods and demons.
"Every innate god and demon is made up of a huge amount of true spirits, and these true spirits are our breakthrough point.
"Later, you will use this marking method to mark as many innate gods and demons as possible.
"In addition, you still need to retreat for a period of time, so go to Xuandu City. I have prepared a retreat place for you. After you come out, you must at least have the strength of the Taiyi realm, and with the special attributes of your soul, you can
You can come and go freely in the sea of chaos."
Yao Ji pursed her lips tightly, lowered her head and cupped her hands: "Yes!"
"You can take a look at the Demon Scouts in Heaven. If there are any that are trustworthy and have good qualifications, you can choose to bring them with you."
Li Pingan said slowly:
“This matter is indeed difficult and cannot be accomplished in a day.
"You are just one of the sentinels. I will send more sentinels in the future to mark the innate gods and demons in the Sea of Chaos and explore the secret places of the Sea of Chaos.
"So, you don't have to have too much pressure, and don't think about what will happen if you can't do it.
"If you feel bored outside, you can always come back and get together with your family."
"Yes," Yao Ji agreed with a smile, and walked back to Mu Ningning's side with a smile on her face.
A fairy brought some fairy fruit and wine.
Li Ping'an didn't stay too long. After drinking a few drinks, he went to the inner hall on the pretext of retreat and enlightenment.
He placed a small house in Xuandu City, surrounded by the Chaos Bell Dao Yun, which accelerated the flow of time. He also placed many insights into it based on the path of Yao Ji's cultivation.
He can't do this kind of thing too much, otherwise it will trigger a backlash.
But it can still be used if you train a few masters.
After doing this, Li Ping'an appeared as a phantom and chatted with the Archmage who had returned to his 'post'.
Then he strolled around the edge of the heaven and earth formation, and the shadow turned into a wisp of spiritual energy and dissipated.
Heaven’s fleet still needs to be built.
If these non-original resources between heaven and earth are not used to make weapons to hunt the innate gods and demons that can fill the origin of heaven and earth, do we have to wait for the end of heaven and earth and let everyone die together?
'Is this a form of hegemony?'
'The innate gods and demons were originally alive and well.'
'It should be considered.'
Li Ping'an fell into deep thought.
‘There seems to be no way to reconcile the great love in the world with external plunder.’
'Well, as long as you lower your moral standards, no one can stop your plan.'
"It's already quite good for a poor Taoist to think about living beings instead of only thinking about human beings."
He raised his eyebrows slightly and didn't think much about these things.
All kinds of viewpoints and arguments here can all lead to Taoism.
Just like the struggle between big countries in his hometown, the essence is to compete for resources and living space. This principle is universal everywhere.
The prehistoric civilization plundered the chaotic civilization. This is the essence of what he will do next.
There's nothing to beautify.
'The blame is mine and I will bear it.'
…
Once a person starts to fall, it's like stepping on the accelerator when going down a mountain.
The speed is like taking off.
Li Ping'an's clone lives in Xiqi City, so far away from Chaoge City, but he can always hear "romances" about Emperor Xin.
If we examine it carefully, the fact that the people of Xiqi City dared to discuss Emperor Xin's affairs is actually a great progress in the people's wisdom here, and also reflects the success of Ji Chang's plan to "get rid of the threat of sacrifices to the great merchants".
Emperor Xin was in the prime of life and had made great achievements in conquering the Dongyi tribe, so it was inevitable that he would be praised.
In the beginning, he liked drinking, having fun, choosing beauties, and playing songs every night.
Afterwards, we played and sang day and night.
However, Di Xin's physical foundation is really good - after all, he was left by Donghuang Taiyi, and he can be regarded as an entry-level physical exerciser - so his record is very strong.
What the people talk about most is Ye Yu Qi Ba, etc.
The Taoist master definitely doesn’t know what it refers to specifically.
He only has a few wives.
The Shang Kingdom can be passed down for such a long time, and it is inseparable from the remonstrance ministers of the Shang kings who dared to speak out. According to the rules set and strengthened by Shang Tang and Wu Ding, the Shang kings could not kill the remonstrators at will.
If they dare to scold the king, they will be killed by the king, that will be their honor.
But who is Di Xin?
He proclaimed himself the Ming Lord, and wanted to solve the Shang Kingdom's internal and external troubles before he ascended to heaven.
So, Di Xin made plans for the ministers in front of him.
The Shang State had a feudal system, which was the basis for the birth and existence of princes. Most of the ministers in the court came from one family. Many of these families had fiefdoms outside. These fiefdoms were spread everywhere and were worked by slaves.
The first thing Di Xin thought of was to use the fiefdoms of these ministers as a threat. If anyone came to remonstrate and scold him, he would take over the fiefdoms of these ministers.
The method is also very simple - reward the edges of these fiefdoms to other ministers.
This really caused several families to fight each other.
Emperor Xin heard less than half of the advice, so he continued to drink and have sex, and developed various novel ways of playing, which became popular among businessmen.
Gradually, Di Xin was no longer satisfied with this.
He started doing some flower activities.
He also began to set his sights on some women with more mature charm, such as... the wives of some ministers.
There was no such thing as chastity and loyalty in the Shang Kingdom.
The wives and children of ministers are often more open-minded. Those with a deeper background have a wide range of friends, while those with a weak background are honest and obedient.
Therefore, it was very convenient for Emperor Xin to take action. When this kind of thing happened at first, it was actually beneficial to the friendship between the monarch and his ministers. Some ministers who wanted to make progress were very happy, but when they encountered two ministers with a hot temper, they started to yell loudly.
Emperor Xin's reputation for this incident spread like this.
For a time, all the ministers came together to remonstrate.
Di Xin almost killed someone in anger.
However, he still abided by the laws of his ancestors and did not blame the admonishers too much.
After two years of this, Di Xin really came up with an idea.
change.
What he made was not a major change, but he began to select capable ministers and generals from those social groups with humble backgrounds, such as leaders, generals and others who were prisoners of war.
A group of capable officials entered the various power classes in Chaoge City, and the voices of the remonstrating ministers suddenly became softer when they spoke.
Di Xin couldn't help but be happy.
Managing hundreds of officials is so simple.
He can also get a reputation as a 'promoter of virtuous people'.
He then started to think about the important officials in the court.
However, Emperor Xin also knew that there would be no problem in finding talented commoners, slaves, and declining nobles to serve as small officials, but if they were placed in the court, it would definitely cause big troubles.
But this was not difficult for Di Xin.
The Shang Kingdom has developed for so many years, and many nobles have declined.
Within half a year, Emperor Xin appointed and promoted four ministers, and these four ministers stood directly in the court.
Here, evil will come to father and son.
Fei Lian has talents in political affairs and making decisions. He is nine feet tall and has the strength to subdue a tiger. He is an absolute fierce general among mortals.
There is also a royal family member who was not taken seriously originally, Fei Zhong.
There is also You Hun here who can speak nice words and is from a commoner background.
Later, Fei Zhong stationed in Dashang's military system, Fei Si became the official, and You Hun was appointed as an admonisher by Emperor Xin.
When the ministers were admonishing, Fei Si and You Hun stood up to block the gun. When nothing happened, You Hun praised the King of Shang. Fei Zhong and E Lai in the army led the group of "new nobles" to quickly attack the city and seize territory, restricting the previous "valets" in the army.
This went on for several years.
The Shang State actually had the preliminary spirit of ZTE.
Di Xin also didn't expect that he originally just wanted to find a few people to quarrel with veterans like Shang Rong in the court, and at the same time promote a group of military generals who were completely loyal to him... The effect would be so good.
Fei Zhong was good at running the army and had supernatural powers when he came to evil. Huang Feihu, who was originally promoted by the aristocracy, gradually lost his voice in front of Emperor Xin.
And Wen Zhong... Wen Zhong was out attacking the barbarians.
Spring in Dixin has finally arrived.
Those old ministers scolded him for breaking the rules of his ancestors and using "untouchables", so he asked the old ministers to recommend a child from a family with a good background. He selected an "untouchable" child and compared the two with their literary talents and political affairs.
The former was directly defeated.
It's just that such a reform will inevitably touch the interests of the "old nobles". With the support of Emperor Xin, the new nobles will fight openly and covertly with the old nobles.
The officials and merchant army of Chaoge City were full of vitality.
In the midst of the prosperity, You Hun did not forget to run up and down, collecting beauties from all over the place. In order to accommodate these beauties, the emperor built some buildings and built some villas.
The Shang Kingdom, which was supposed to be in decline, actually went on several foreign campaigns and won consecutive victories in a short period of time.
The merchants, old nobles and others dared not speak out more and more;
Most of the royal family members who were just dawdling began to hone their martial arts and learn strategies;
The voices of the princes from all walks of life decreased rapidly.
The number of prisoners of war in Chaoge City continued to increase, and Emperor Xin changed the memorial ceremony to a small ceremony every three months.
It was at this time that Di Xin made big news.
Wine ponds and meat forests, the king and his ministers enjoy themselves together.
Di Xin also had skills, and a loser like You Hun who was under his control was not qualified to enjoy himself with him.
Veteran ministers like Shang Rong cannot bear this kind of happiness.
Emperor Xin entertained some of the princes with strong soldiers and horses, loyal to the Shang Kingdom, such as Chonghou Hu, in the wine pool, meat forest, and Meiji's fine wine.
Although this method has become a new "hot spot" criticized by the old ministers, the two hundred princes on the North Road are becoming more and more convinced of Emperor Xin.
At this time, a wise veteran like Bigan had already reacted.
Under the pretense of indulging in beauty and wine, Emperor Xin made his officials despise him, and then seemingly casually began to use "untouchable" officials to check and balance the court, control military affairs, and encourage the royal family and businessmen to work hard.
You Hun bears most of the infamy;
The pressure is borne by Fei Zhong, Eilai and Feixian;
In the process of pursuing self-enjoyment, Di Xin has completed the changes in the power structure of the court, and he has gained stronger control.
Emperor Xin, who was thought by his ministers and princes to have fallen from beauty, finally showed his fangs.
His first target was Xi Bohou, Ji Chang, whose reputation as a sage had become increasingly famous recently.
…
Occasionally there will be a hearty heavy rain in early autumn in Xiqicheng.
Fortunately, the corn has been harvested in advance.
This year is another good year for the Zhou Kingdom.
In the courtyard where Ji Dan lived, Li Pingan stretched out and walked out of the house, admiring the clear sky after the rain and walking in the wet courtyard.
There were sounds of children running and cheering outside the hospital.
Li Ping'an squinted and smiled. Just as he was about to go out to take a look, the sound of the hooves of strange beasts could be heard outside the door.
Ji Fa turned over and jumped down. He rushed to the door in two steps, pushed it open and rushed in.
"Fourth!"
Li Ping'an smiled and said, "Why are you so alarmed, second brother?"
"Something big happened!"
Ji Fa shouted anxiously:
"My father was imprisoned by the king! This news happened more than half a month ago, and now I don't know whether he is alive or dead!"
