After dealing with the Three Saints, Lin Ze's eyes naturally fell on Meng Ke and the other three who did not dare to move.
Meng Ke, who felt Lin Ze's malicious gaze and saw Lin Ze sealing the Three Saints with his own eyes, immediately begged for mercy: "Sheng Lin, please forgive me. I am just a low-class person who is being persecuted and has no intention of murdering Sheng Lin. I hope you can
Mingjian.”
Lin Ze looked strange and said: "If you cause harm, you will cause harm. How can you let it go just because it didn't cause any harm? Do you think this saint is an honest person who is easy to bully?"
After saying that he was too lazy to talk nonsense with Meng Ke and the others, the saint's aura gathered in his right hand, intending to teach the three of them an unforgettable lesson.
Maitreya said anxiously: "Sheng Lin, wait a minute. The poor monk and the others know that sin is unforgivable, but even if Sheng Lin kills us, we will get nothing but anger, so it is better to keep us for driving."
Ksitigarbha agreed: "Yes, yes, as long as Sheng Lin can spare us, from now on, if Sheng Lin gives orders, we are bound to do so and will never shirk them."
Lin Ze chuckled: "But I am really not interested in the slaves of the third surname."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ze stretched out his hand and pushed forward, and the extremely violent saint's breath shot out, hitting Meng Ke and the three of them hard.
Meng Ke and the other three vomited blood and flew out. Their third-level cultivation was like a deflated rubber ball, and they fell to the bottom. Their expressions were sluggish, and it was obvious that they had suffered an unexpected heavy blow.
Lin Ze said with an indifferent expression: "For the sake of attracting Buddha and Confucian sages, you may be exempted from death, but you cannot escape from living sins. Today, this sage has cut off your path to serve as a warning to others."
"If you are dissatisfied, you can find ways to retaliate against me, as long as you can bear the price of failure."
Although Meng Ke and the others harbored resentment in their hearts, they not only did not dare to show it, but instead dragged their severely injured bodies to Lin Ze, bowed and said, "Thank you very much, Sheng Lin, for showing mercy."
Lin Ze looked bored, waved his hand and said: "Go away,"
The three of them endured the pain and ran out of the palace, fleeing from Chang'an.
Lin Ze watched Meng Ke and the others leave with a dull look. If he hadn't killed the three of them, his luck would have been compromised, and he felt it wasn't worth it. With Lin Ze's temperament, he would be able to offer incense to the three of them next year and today.
Zhuang Zhou kept watching until Meng Ke and others left, then he said: "This matter is over. It's time for my junior brother to return to the Dao Palace for retreat."
Lin Ze smiled and replied: "Senior brother, don't be impatient. Let me explain all the matters in the court before returning to Dao Palace with my senior brother."
Zhuang Zhou looked seriously and asked: "How long will it take?"
Lin Ze smiled and replied: "It can take as long as one day, or as short as half a day. It won't take too long."
Zhuang Zhou nodded: "I'll wait for you outside the palace." After saying that, he walked away.
Lin Ze walked out of the palace and said loudly: "Where is Wu Fan? Let the prime minister and the six ministers rush to my study within a quarter of an hour to wait for him. There must be no mistake."
Wu Fan, who was hiding outside Lin Ze's palace, quickly came out and responded: "I obey your order."
Although the night was dark, it was still early and Chen Ping and others had not gone to bed yet. After receiving the message from Wu Fan, they hurried to the palace.
After a while, Lin Ze saw Chen Ping and others in the study.
Chen Ping took the lead and bowed and said: "Your Majesty has summoned the ministers urgently. What are your orders?"
Lin Ze got straight to the point and said: "I have gained some achievements in martial arts and need to stay in seclusion for three years. I want to entrust the government to the ministers. I wonder if you have the confidence?"
Three years of seclusion? Entrusted to the government?
Chen Ping and others looked at each other in confusion after hearing this, not knowing how to answer the question for a moment. After all, they had ignored the government affairs for three years, and they seemed to have the intention of being a fool.
And as a minister, who shoulders the important task of making the monarch wise, how can he agree easily?
Seeing that no one answered Chen Ping and others, Lin Ze frowned and said slightly dissatisfied: "What, you think you are incompetent, or are you still unhappy?"
As the head of the hundred officials, Chen Ping had no choice but to bite the bullet and bowed his hands and said: "Although your Majesty's martial arts can't be delayed, if you don't have your Majesty in charge in the court, there will be chaos for a long time. I hope your Majesty will think twice."
Lin Ze looked strange and asked: "How long will there be chaos? Who dares to cause chaos?"
Chen Ping felt a strong aura of overlord coming towards his face. He had already thought out some words of persuasion, but he couldn't say them out.
Sikong Ma, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, took a step forward to relieve the siege and said: "The foundation of the Western Qin Dynasty was created by your Majesty. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty and even the whole world are all your Majesty's followers."
"Now Your Majesty wants to retreat for three years and plans to entrust the government to the ministers. The ministers are naturally willing to serve Your Majesty. However, if Your Majesty does not appear for a long time, it is inevitable that demons and demons will jump out, disobey the jurisdiction of the ministers and others, and cause chaos in the world."
"The reason why the Prime Minister said that was because he was worried that his lack of prestige would make it difficult to eliminate disasters and make the country unstable, so he did not dare to accept it."
Lin Ze said calmly: "So that's it. If the Prime Minister is worried that he won't be able to suppress it, he can just say so. Why go around in circles?"
"This matter is simple. I immediately summoned all the civil and military officials and entrusted the government to seven of you in public. At the same time, I sent a letter to Zhang Han, Li Xin, Yu Ziqi and other generals guarding the border and holding military power, so that you and others can be justified."
"Besides this, I will arrange for several powerful third-level heavenly beings to guard Chang'an. If any heavenly beings cause trouble, all you can do is ask them for help."
"If none of the three heavenly beings can solve the problem in the third realm, you can ask them to go to the Dao Palace to ask for help. My teacher Dao Sheng and my senior brother Zhuang Zhou are both saints, and they can solve any troubles in the world."
Chen Ping and others all looked solemn. From these words alone, we could tell that Lin Ze had made up his mind. He could only bow his hands and say: "I obey the order."
Lin Ze asked casually: "Are there any other questions?"
Chen Ping bowed his head and bowed his hands in worship: "In the past, all matters were decided by Your Majesty. If Your Majesty goes into seclusion, who will make the decision? Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
Lin Ze thought for a while and said, "If you don't decide on domestic affairs, ask the Prime Minister. If you don't decide on war, ask Huaiyin. If you don't decide on miscellaneous matters, ask Jin Yi. I believe you will not let me down."
Chen Ping bowed and replied: "I thank your Majesty for your express statement."
Lin Ze waved his hand and said: "If there are no other questions, I will summon all the civil and military officials to come to Chengtian Palace for an audience. I am in a hurry to go into retreat and need to make arrangements for the government as soon as possible."
"Nuo" Chen Ping bowed and retreated. His mood was a little complicated. Since conquering the world, His Majesty has become less and less interested in political affairs. Now he plans to remain in seclusion for three years, which may not be a blessing to the country.
In fact, Chen Ping's worries were somewhat unnecessary. Lin Ze did not care about political affairs. To be precise, he actually had little interest in becoming emperor.
The reason why he reluctantly became the Human Emperor was mainly to harvest his luck quickly and use it to improve his cultivation level.
Now that Lin Ze has been successfully promoted to the Saint Realm, and he doesn't even know what it is like to transcend the realm in the legend, being an emperor will have a much smaller effect on him than before.
Moreover, the Three Saints who like to act as monsters have been sealed, and there is not even a third realm of Buddhism and Confucianism left. Western Qin can be said to be invincible in the world, so who should he worry about?
As long as the New Deal continues to be implemented, it will not be a problem for the Western Qin State to continue for hundreds of years.
Generally speaking, Lin Ze does not seem to need to pay too much attention to political affairs.
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was very considerate. He opened the imperial examination, built the Grand Canal, and conquered Goguryeo all day long. As a result, the Sui Dynasty was so good that he was finished.
If nothing big happened, Lin Ze wouldn't have thought of doing anything.
Chen Ping and others were very efficient. In just two quarters of an hour, all the officials in Chang'an City who were qualified to go to court came to Chengtian Hall to wait for Lin Ze's arrival.
Lin Ze did not delay, and when he arrived at Chengtian Hall, he went into seclusion and entrusted the government affairs to the Prime Minister Chen Ping and the six ministers.
Then he ordered to retreat from the court and went to find Zhuang Zhou.
