When Zong Zheng Shiquan saw Lin Ye for the second time, he didn't even think about irritating Lin Ye again.
"I now begin to believe what you Central Plains people say about luck."
Zong Zheng Shiquan did not look at Lin Ye when he spoke, but faced the wall.
This cell has been specially treated, and the walls are covered with something. With Zong Zheng Shiquan's current strength, even if he wants to hit himself to death, it won't work, not both ends, or countless heads.
When he spoke with his back to Lin Ye, Lin Ye also knew that this human emperor not only gave up the idea of life, but also gave up the idea of death.
An immortal person.
"The Central Plains always has strange luck."
Zong Zhengshi seemed to be talking to himself.
"Even if a country has reached a point where the building is about to collapse, some people will stand up and try to turn the tide."
"If you can turn the tide, you will be able to save the country. But at this time, those who turn the tide often want to save not the country, but the people."
"This, let's call him what you Central Plains people call...a saint."
Lin Ye said: "There have been few saints since ancient times."
Zong Zhengshiquan said: "That's because you Central Plains people are too demanding on saints. The more perfect you are, the more demanding you are."
Lin Ye was silent.
Yes, what Zong Zheng Shiquan said is correct.
Zong Zhengshiquan said: "So after reading the history of the Central Plains, I always wonder how a nation like yours can have so many saints."
"In my opinion, anyone who can save people is a saint, and my understanding and requirements for saints are not that harsh."
Lin Ye said: "Your Majesty is a little helpless."
Of course Zong Zheng Shiquan was a little helpless.
If he were the emperor of Dayu, he might not necessarily do better than the emperor Xie Fuwei, but he would definitely do better than the current Mr. Xin, and not even a little bit better.
"Lou Fan has been in the country for thousands of years... and no saint has ever appeared."
Lin Ye said: "That is indeed a pity."
Zong Zheng Shiquan was silent and didn't speak for a long time. Lin Ye didn't seem to have anything in particular to ask him. He just sat there quietly, not as if he was here to interrogate, but more like he was here to accompany him.
Of course, Zong Zheng Shiquan knew very well that Lin Ye's companionship was just sympathy for him, the human emperor, in this short period of time.
No, how could someone like Lin Ye show so much sympathy?
He's just not in a hurry.
After a long time, Zong Zheng Shiquan asked Lin Yedao: "What else do you want to know from me? Do you think that I can really help you defeat Lou Fan?"
Lin Ye said: "Your Majesty can."
Zong Zhengshiquan smiled bitterly: "Are we going to use special means?"
Lin Ye said: "You always have to use it."
There are too many secrets about Lou Fan in Zong Zheng Shiquan's head. As long as these secrets can be pried out, Dayu's success will be infinitely expanded in this Northern Expedition.
Leaving such a treasure unopened, and simply relying on courage and strength to fight against the Loufan people... What a stupid thing to do. If it were Zong Zheng Shiquan, he might have long ago
Ordered to pry open the treasure.
"Can you tell me what kind of torture you plan to use?"
Zong Zhengshiquan said: "I want to evaluate whether I can bear it."
Lin Ye said: "The emperor has told you that he cannot use torture on you. This is not out of respect for your status as an emperor, but because he hopes you can live longer."
Lin Ye looked back and saw that the two great monks who were sitting cross-legged at the door of the dungeon were already waiting outside.
Zong Zhengshiquan seemed to feel it. He nodded: "I understand the Zen method."
Dayu's respect for Zen is far less than that of Lou Fan. Zen is Lou Fan's national religion, so Zong Zhengshiquan is naturally no stranger to Zen methods.
"That's not bad."
Zong Zhengshiquan said: "At the very least, I am not unable to withstand the severe torture."
Lin Ye stood up and left.
There was no need for him to ask anything in person, it was enough for him to just sit by and watch and listen quietly.
At this time, tables and chairs had been prepared for Lin Ye outside the cell. There were tea, dried fruits and snacks, as well as pens, ink, paper and inkstones.
After Lin Ye left the cell, the two great monks walked in slowly. It was indeed impossible for them to use any cruel methods. It seemed that they were kind-hearted.
One of the great monks came to stand behind Zong Zheng Shi Quan, chanted a Buddhist chant in a low voice, then raised his left hand and placed it gently on Zong Zheng Shi Quan's head.
Another great monk sat down cross-legged, prepared for a moment and then started chanting. A strange pronunciation and strange intonation rippled around like water waves.
Lin Ye was sitting outside the cell door. With his strength and cultivation, his head sank slightly when he heard the sound of chanting sutras. He took a deep breath and gathered his mind before regaining his clarity.
This quiet chanting continued for about half an hour, and the two great monks didn't seem to be impatient at all.
Half an hour later, the great monk with his palm on Zong Zheng Shiquan's head slowly opened his eyes, and then commanded: "Turn around."
Zong Zheng Shiquan, who was in a confused and pious state, immediately turned around and faced Lin Ye's direction.
At this moment, Lin Ye clearly saw that Zong Zheng Shiquan's face had a look of sincerity, and even a bit of majesty.
The great monk who was chanting sutras did not stop. The great monk standing next to Zong Zheng Shiquan looked back at Lin Ye and said, "If you want to ask anything, the general can ask now."
Royal study room.
Xin Yanque was sitting on the table in a daze, looking a little distressed. As an emperor, he was still so ungrateful. If there was a chair, he would sit on the table.
Gu Xiujin stood not far away, already accustomed to Mr. Xin's lack of dignity.
In addition to liking to sit at the table, Mr. Xin also has many quirks. For example, he prefers to squat on a chair when eating. For example, when going to the toilet, Mr. Xin must bring a book with him.
At first, Gu Xiujin admired Mr. Xin's studious behavior, until he found that the book was getting thinner and thinner.
"I'm going to be an uncle."
Xin Yanque looked out the window with a sad face: "So what should I give you?"
Gu Xiujin said: "Your Majesty can call the adults in the service office to discuss it. Although there have always been rules and regulations, if your Majesty wants to reward more, it will not be difficult."
Xin Yanque shook his head: "Whatever those old stubborns can come up with, what I want to give must be novel."
Gu Xiujin thought for a while and then said: "If you want to talk about novelty, then why don't your Majesty ask the ethics of the mainland?"
Xin Yanque's eyes lit up.
Yes, when it comes to novel gadgets, who can compare to that lunatic Lu Junji.
"Go and summon him to come in."
Xin Yanque ordered, then immediately shook his head: "No need, I'm going to Fengyu Temple now."
Just as he was about to get up, the chamberlain came over to report that there was a woman in white outside the palace gate asking to see him. Xin Yanque became panicked as soon as he stopped...
He quickly said please, and then subconsciously ran to the bronze mirror to tidy up his clothes.
I don't know what's going on, but Xin Yanque has a natural fear of her even though he hasn't met that woman in white many times, a kind of... bloodline suppression.
When Gu Xiujin saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Your Majesty has never been so honest and responsible in front of the Supreme Saint Monarch. Now His Majesty looks a little less like His Majesty, more like a younger brother who was beaten by his elder sister since childhood.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiujin was startled...
Soon after, the woman in white entered the royal study, and Gu Xiujin left with all the servants.
"sister......"
When Xin Yanque saw her, he became even more frightened.
He asked cautiously: "Why did you come suddenly?"
The woman in white sat down and said, "I just came back from the outside to track down the remnants of Wanxiangmen Hua Lianhua's lineage. I have finally finished the investigation. Come back and have a rest."
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xin Yanque: "I heard that you punished Lin Ye in court two days ago?"
Xin Yanque raised his hands and pinched his ears before squatting down.
"I was wrong......"
The woman in white glanced at him: "What a mistake. If I were here, I would beat him too."
Xin Yanque secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The woman in white said: "Although I spend more time with him than you do, I don't dote on him."
Xin Yanque said: "But he didn't know about it."
The woman in white said: "I will let him know later."
Xin Yanque's eyes lit up: "When do you plan to let him know?"
The woman in white said: "Let's wait until the Supreme Saint comes back."
Xin Yanque asked, "Then when will he come back?"
The woman in white shook her head.
Xin Yanque said: "A person as smart as Xiao Yezi should have made a guess a long time ago. It's just that he was a little confused by your appearance. He is not sure who he is..."
Before she finished speaking, the woman in white glared at Xin Yanque. For such a careless person, Xin Yanque did not dare to say any more.
"Back then, my eldest brother wanted to secretly plan something big with my mother-in-law, but General Liu Jigong had just had an accident at that time. My mother-in-law didn't trust my eldest brother or the court. If she didn't send a person with a unique identity to a place where she could see it with her own eyes, she would
worried."
Speaking of this, the woman in white looked at Xin Yanque and said, "You were still young at that time, and you were incompetent, otherwise I might have really sent you there."
Xin Yanque said: "I've been there too, haven't I? Although I was still young and ignorant at that time, I still didn't feel at ease knowing that Little Leaf would go to her mother-in-law sooner or later, so I escaped from Geling, thinking
Let’s go see how my mother-in-law is doing first.”
The woman in white said: "Do you really think you ran away from home on your own? If we hadn't turned a blind eye, you wouldn't even be able to leave Fengyu Temple."
Xin Yanque laughed sarcastically.
The woman in white continued: "Just because I knew you wanted to go and have a look first, and you were also worried about Xiao Zizi, I didn't take care of it, and I didn't let my elder brother take care of it. Naturally, the old headmaster wouldn't take care of it. Not only did he not take care of it, but he also
You stole a lot of things from him."
Xin Yanque laughed sarcastically again.
"Get up, are you still squatting there?"
"oh......"
Xin Yan Quexin said that since I was a child, you were the only one who dared to beat me, and you were never gentle. If you didn't let me get up, it would be as if I really dared to get up.
"I was always with Xiao Yezi before he went to her mother-in-law's house, but he never imagined that I was wearing a mask all the time, and he never imagined that the home he had before going to her mother-in-law's house would be fake."
The woman in white said: "But he is too smart. I can feel it. Although I don't look the same as when I was around him, he is always trying to see something in my eyes."
Xin Yanque said: "That kid is as smart as a monster."
The woman in white smiled: "This is the luck of the Xie family, and also the luck of Dayu."
Xin Yanque hummed.
Then he said with some emotion: "If you didn't send Xiao Yezi there, but just sent me there, my mother-in-law might not really trust my elder brother."
At that time, my mother-in-law had already begun to prepare for her own revenge.
And every person that the mother-in-law can contact can be called her death warrior. As long as she gives the order, these people will dare to go through the sword and the sea of fire.
General Liu Jigong was kind to them, and they were all loyal and unyielding people who knew how to repay their kindness.
"I came back to ask."
The woman in white looked at Xin Yanque: "Little Ye Zi...are you really going to be a father?"
Xin Yanque sighed: "That's not what it is. As an emperor, I don't have anyone to take care of the matter of establishing a queen. I think no one takes it seriously. I am so angry that he is going to be a father!"
"
But the woman in white had a smile in her eyes and ignored Xin Yanque's complaints.
"so good......"
She said: "I will personally guard it."
Xin Yanque became serious: "Because of Zong Zheng Shiquan's affairs, Lou Fan's God-endowed Realm may appear in Yunzhou."
The woman in white said calmly: "Who is not?"
Xin Yanque was stunned for a moment, and then became even more annoyed.
