Chapter 53 Before Enthronement (Happy National Day!)
"Sima Hui?"
Gu Cheng said to Jia Xu, who came here to report: "I live up to my reputation. Even if I surrender, I have chosen the most ingenious time."
It has been nearly two hundred years since Guangwu revived the Han Dynasty and the family prospered.
Above the court, as far as the eye could see, they were all sons of aristocratic families, but only a few were from poor families. Therefore, when he declared war on the aristocratic families, how many people were waiting to see how the prince, who had always been invincible, would be beaten to a bloody head.
But now, it is the six major families who finally succumbed.
The Dongtian was handed over. No matter whether the family might have some back-up plot inside, Gu Cheng didn't care anymore, because he had no intention of integrating the six caves into the Han Dynasty's Jianyuan Cave, but handed it over to the demons from all directions.
He even hoped that the aristocratic family would struggle to the death so that it could be legitimately purged in the future.
However, based on the nature of the heads of the six families, Gu Cheng knew that this possibility was unlikely. At this time when the family was surrendering, there was no need to push too hard to avoid jumping over the wall in a hurry.
Therefore, it is the best time for Sima Hui to arrive at this time and bow his head.
After all, he was a great scholar of his generation, with a lot of talents all over the world, and he had never confronted a big man head-on. If he were to be killed directly at such a sensitive moment, it would probably cause trouble.
"When the country is in turmoil, it stirs up troubles, but when the world is at peace, it bows its heads. How cunning and resourceful do you want to be able to move forward and retreat freely? Here in Gu, there has never been a habit of writing everything off!"
After Gu Cheng reviewed the last memorial, he said coldly: "Let him live a little longer!"
"Your Highness is smart and has never dealt with Shuijing Academy specifically, but he has driven the old thief Sima to a dead end."
Jia Xu sat down with an emotional look on his face, and said with a wry smile: "It just seems like it's unnecessary for me to wait."
It is precisely because of the power of the aristocratic families that the Shuijing Academy has the Eight Wonders of Shuijing and three thousand students.
Without the support of the aristocratic family, Shuijing Academy is vulnerable.
This is a weapon that subdues others without fighting.
However, even Jia Xu could not imagine that the seven barbarian tribes would be destroyed at will, but they would still die at the hands of the demon tribe and be brutally sacrificed to blood.
The overall situation has been decided. While Jia Xu felt sincere awe for His Royal Highness, he could not help but smile bitterly.
When following such a wise master, there is always a feeling that one's talents are buried. It's not that he is not valued, but that his opponent falls without any need for his efforts.
Sweeping across the Liuhe, annexing the eight wastelands, all the mountains and rivers inside and outside are on their knees!
"The troubled times have just ended, and governance has not yet begun. What's more, in the three realms of heaven, earth and man, the journey goes far beyond the land beneath our feet!"
Gu Cheng smiled, his tone was calm, and there was a strange color in his eyes: "The day when we go abroad may not be far away..."
"I understand!"
Jia Xu perked up after hearing this, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I want to see Sima Hui!"
"Are you finally coming from behind the scenes to the stage?"
Gu Cheng nodded and said: "Taichang Liu Kang and Zongzheng Liu Yu have set an auspicious date for the enthronement ceremony. It will be ten days later. There are some things I want to entrust to you. Come!"
"yes!"
Jia Xu's face straightened and he stepped forward.
In the East Palace, protected by the Supreme Flame Dragon and the Nine-Five Supreme Divine Formation, Gu Cheng never shied away from speaking up, but he was so solemn at this time. Obviously, what he said next was extremely important.
Sure enough, after hearing just one sentence, Jia Xu's expression changed drastically, and he quickly knelt down: "Why did Your Highness say this? This is absolutely impossible!"
"Listen carefully!"
Gu Cheng's eyes were focused. After finishing his story, he waved his hand and put two rays of light into Jia Xu's hands: "Is it clear?"
Jia Xu was sweating coldly and said in a daze: "Please remember this!"
"Go for it!"
Gu Cheng waved his hand and said smoothly: "Those who travel a hundred miles are half a mile, so don't get carried away!"
Jia Xu retreated, Gu Cheng pondered for a moment, unfolded the Dihuang Book, and the scene of Fengdu appeared in front of him.
He turned his gaze and looked at Zhao Wuyan's mansion.
Thanks to this ghost messenger's unique ability to communicate with the human world, his mansion has transformed from a deserted place to a bustling place. He has even recruited countless ghosts, and he has become a tyrant in the outer city.
What makes Gu Cheng interesting is that the leaders of the ghosts, one tall, one short, one fat and one thin, are actually Dong Zhuo and Li Ru. The Greedy Wolf Seven Kills star has helped them rise to prominence and are about to make a comeback.
It's a pity that all of this has already been planned by Guo Jia. The territory is the base camp that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has managed for countless years and has deep roots. If you want to leverage such a situation, you must use extraordinary chess pieces.
The star power of Dong Zhuo and Li Ru is one of them, and the dragon energy of Emperor Ling and Liu Xie can be even more useful.
"Jia Xu is patient and Guo Jia is public. They have completely opposite personalities, but they have the same plan. We will wait and see what happens in the world!"
Gu Cheng nodded slightly and looked into the depths of the earth.
It's not yet time to finally close the network, so I came here to contact Zhang Liang.
Never sacrifice to heaven, this is Zhang Liang's warning, asking him to go to the small world to improve his realm, refine his clone, and eliminate internal and external troubles before ascending the throne.
Now that all the obstacles that can be removed have been removed, and the back-ups that can be prepared are all in place, Gu Cheng also wants to ask Zhang Liang, or rather ask Empress Houtu, whether he can survive this disaster!
The next moment, a stream of light passed through the Emperor's Book and passed into his hand. Gu Cheng opened it and raised his eyebrows.
There are eight big characters written on it:
"Ten deaths lead to no life, and the dead come back to life."
…
…
On the other side, Jia Xu walked toward the front hall where Mr. Shui Jing was waiting, his steps getting slower and slower.
He originally wanted to appreciate the lost look on his old rival's face.
The contrast between the two at the beginning was as great as heaven and earth. One was a world-famous Confucian who had cultivated numerous talented people. He wanted to disrupt the general trend of the world, dominate the destiny of humanity, achieve perfect merits, and advance to the holy position. The other was a down-and-out scholar, working behind the scenes.
Auxiliary, unknown.
But now, he is the winner.
Even with Jia Xu's temperament, he couldn't help but want to show up to see him, but the prince poured a basin of cold water down his head.
"Are you getting carried away? Yes, why should I go to see the old thief Sima, just to show off a few words..."
The next moment, Jia Xu turned around and disappeared into the shadow of the palace wall in a few steps. At the same time, he took out six simple copper coins from his arms and placed them in a tortoise shell.
He held his breath and concentrated, held it with his right hand, sealed it with his left hand, shook it up and down nine times, and gently poured out the copper coins one by one.
This seemingly ordinary tortoise shell of copper coins actually has a great origin. It is called King Wen's Money Divination. When Jia Xu was young, he relied on it to seek good luck and avoid disasters, and avoided many disasters. Later, he rarely used it. Now that he is thinking about it, he is very grateful to His Highness.
At the enthronement ceremony in the future, I asked about good or bad luck.
Crack! Crack!
However, the next moment, his color suddenly changed, because all six copper coins cracked, then turned into fly ash and dissipated in the wind.
This is no longer a serious disaster, but a lifeless and desperate situation!
"If there is a shocking change during the enthronement ceremony, you should do this...wait for my return!"
Jia Xu remembered the face-to-face instruction just like a thunderbolt from the blue, and bowed slowly, with a determined expression on his face, and said categorically: "I will live up to your majesty's trust!"
