"A wolf's ambition is hard to satisfy. One day he will wipe out all the immortals and restore a peaceful world to the world!"
Gu Cheng stood up slowly and vowed word by word.
The National Preceptor and the National Preceptor use the fortune of the country to support a person's cultivation, and he can become an immortal or a saint with just a wave of his hand.
The price was that the national destiny of the Han Dynasty was damaged, and even the divine power and imperial power went hand in hand.
The ambition of immortality is beyond imagination.
In history, the position of national master did not begin until the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the Northern Qi Dynasty three hundred years later.
The Northern Qi Dynasty was the most bizarre dynasty in history. The royal family was cruel and debauched, twisted and twisted, which was outrageous. In the end, there was even an eternal anecdote about the empress dowager and the queen prostitution together in the downtown area.
King Zhou in Fengshen Yanyi is childish compared to them.
Gu admitted that only a crazy royal family would have a national preceptor.
Even if the great Han dynasty dies, he will never allow outsiders to cause trouble to humanity.
"I would like to follow His Highness to clarify Yunei!"
Feeling Gu Cheng's determination, Qiao Xuan's blood boiled and he half-knelt down.
"I'm also looking forward to that day."
Gu Cheng helped him up: "Mr. Qiao, take care of yourself. What can I do to extend your life?"
Qiao Xuan showed a grateful look: "Your Highness, don't worry, I know my body well. Your Majesty has given many elixirs in the past. I have two daughters. They have been to the Golden Palace of Kunlun Yaochi since they were young and worshiped the Queen Mother of the West. If I can get the elixir,
, it can also extend your life.”
Gu Cheng was startled: "Isn't Yaochi Golden Palace also an immortal?"
Qiao Xuan shook his head: "Dongwanggong and Xiwangmu are ancient gods who have always protected the human world. They are different from those ambitious people who only want to fly to heaven and live forever."
Gu Cheng understood.
This is the same as learning from the barbarians and gaining skills to control the barbarians. Obviously Qiao Xuan is by no means a rigid person and has far-reaching wisdom.
However, no results can be seen in a short period of time.
"Eunuchs, aristocratic families, immortals, barbarians...there is injustice inside and outside, and we are enemies on all sides!"
After Gu Chengzai and Qiao Xuan analyzed the potential of the Yellow Turban, they parted after having a meal. When they returned to Chengqian Palace, a sense of urgency that time was not waiting for me came to their hearts.
The Immortal Way is pervasive, the aristocratic family cannot be wiped out, and the barbarians are watching with eager eyes. From this point of view, the eunuch power will be eliminated quickly.
After decades of causing chaos, the power of the eunuchs has expanded to the extreme. It is said that when they flourish, they will decline. Taking action at this time is in line with the general trend, getting twice the result with half the effort, and gaining both fame and fortune.
However, Gu Cheng was not suitable to come forward in this matter.
The eunuch is basically an extension of the imperial power. If he goes into battle naked, even if he can win, the gain will not be worth the loss.
What's more, Emperor Ling now regards Shi Changshi as a life-saving straw to protect the throne. Once Gu Cheng officially takes action on Shi Changshi, he may be desperate.
So who will kick off the show?
A figure flashed into his mind, and Gu Cheng raised his lips and called Xu Huang: "Invite Mr. He!"
…
…
"Guo Sheng, you dare not accept my invitation? Get out of here!"
Amidst the earth-shaking roar, the magnificent door was blown to pieces, and a giant and fierce man swaggered in.
"He Jin, you dare to break into my mansion?"
An angry voice sounded. Guo Sheng and a group of servants looked at the mess and screamed.
"How can you not dare if you are an eunuch?"
He Jin's movements and movements were filled with immense strength, and a terrifying coercion shrouded all directions. With his stern gaze, the powerful slaves who usually lorded it over Luoyang were all trembling, and they did not dare to express their anger.
"The dog pig (zhì) butcher brings humiliation to himself!"
As a powerful servant of the Ten Standings, Guo Sheng's body was filled with Yin Qi. When he stepped on the ground, array patterns spread, and the entire mansion's array was activated.
In terms of fighting alone, the Ten Changshi Qi Shang is far from He Jin's opponent, but this is the residence of the Zhongchangshi, and He Jin comes alone, so he will definitely have to give him a lift.
"Come on! I'll take care of everything!"
He Jin laughed, feeling happy and unafraid, but suddenly remembered something: "Wait, my nephew asked me to come. After that, it's never too late to fight!"
"The eldest prince?"
Guo Sheng's expression changed, his arrogance disappeared, and he put on a smile skillfully: "It turned out to be a misunderstanding, Mr. He, please!"
The attitude of the ten permanent attendants towards the eldest prince has changed from initial hostility to conflict and apprehension.
They were really helpless and instigated Emperor Ling to depose the prince every day. Unfortunately, after Emperor Ling had been emperor for sixteen years, he had long since lost the iron-fisted strategy of fighting for power and became an ostrich who was just getting along.
The eldest prince wanted to seize power in the court and cultivate his confidants, but he turned a blind eye and only wanted a peaceful coexistence.
Anyway, Gu Cheng wanted to quell the Yellow Turban chaos and deploy troops and generals, while Emperor Ling wanted to enjoy himself and sell his official position to make money. The two did not hinder each other.
From Emperor Ling's point of view, this was an extreme compromise. If both parties maintained this balance, they could last a long time.
If Gu Cheng wants to destroy Shi Changshi, he will have to leave him unavailable and his power will be completely sidelined, which is the bottom line.
Shi Changshi was originally cautious, as if facing a formidable enemy, and was prepared to make Gu Cheng take action, so that Emperor Ling could no longer endure it.
Unexpectedly, Gu Cheng's patience was surprisingly good. He worked on it slowly and had no intention of finishing it all in one battle.
In just two months, the power in the imperial court has already begun to take shape. If this continues, within a year, the general trend will be established.
At that time, the Ling Emperor will be just a puppet. If he wants to abolish it, he can abolish it. If he doesn't want to abolish it, he will supervise the country as a prince. How is it different from the emperor?
The ten permanent servants did not want to sit still and wait for death. They were brewing all kinds of poisonous plans, but they could not think of many ways to target the eldest prince.
And they also have differences with each other.
After all, what Gu Cheng did was no matter how loud the thunder or the rain, and he still hasn’t taken action yet. This makes people inevitably take chances.
In the future, the emperor will always have eunuchs around him, right?
Apart from them, there are still new regular servants. Maybe the eldest prince changes his mind and starts to play the art of balancing against the various forces of his relatives and eunuch families again~~
So now He Jin came forward to negotiate on behalf of the eldest prince, which made Guo Sheng very happy.
However, He Jin didn't know what negotiation skills were at all. He almost poured beans out of a bamboo tube and repeated Gu Cheng's words: "My nephew said that he will also use eunuchs after he ascends the throne, but there are too many eunuchs, so he just
Leave three!"
Guo Sheng was stunned.
Before he had time to think, He Jin said again: "My nephew also said that you eunuchs will definitely jump around. If you disobey once, one out of ten will die; if you disobey twice, everyone will die except Zhang Rang; if you disobey three times, the eunuch will be completely changed!"
"
Guo Sheng took a deep breath, and immediately became furious.
Even if the Emperor Ling treats his ten regular attendants as dogs and guards his homes and courtyards, he still has to give him rewards and throw away his bones!
The eldest prince is not yet the emperor, but he wants to watch vicious dogs bite him for fun?
Who would fall for such a childish plan to sow discord?
Guo Sheng's heart was full of hatred, and he said sadly: "Excuse me, Lord He. I'm afraid I don't have the blessing of serving His Highness!"
"You dare to resist the prince?"
When He Jin heard this, he became furious and punched out: "I will beat you until you surrender!"
…
…
"If you enter or exit the horse, the negotiation will collapse."
In Chengqian Palace, Gu Cheng was waiting.
"nephew!"
Not long after, a disgraced He Jin strode into the palace and loudly said: "None of the eunuchs agree, what should I do?"
"Thank you for your hard work, uncle!"
Gu Cheng sighed: "Next, the ten permanent servants will definitely try to harm me!"
"I messed up this matter!"
He Jin half-knelt down, his face full of shame, his eyes like bells glaring, and he took the opportunity to show his loyalty: "But if they want to harm you, they have to step over my body!"
"Strike first and strike later to control others!"
Gu Cheng took out the imperial talisman and handed it over: "If the slave wants to kill his master, why not kill him?"
The military power was regained. He Jin took it over with joy. When he looked up, he saw Gu Cheng looking down coldly: "Surround the Shichangshi's mansion. No action is allowed without my order! Don't fail again, General He!"
He Jin's heart was beating wildly and he bowed in confusion: "Yes!"
