Sheng Fu

Chapter 952 The Old Man’s Backer

His Royal Highness the Southern King and the Prime Minister then crossed the void and left.

Yu Wenjun was speechless for a moment, not knowing what he was feeling.

……

Two days later, in the imperial capital, on Feilong Terrace.

"Xie Yiming and Bai Xiaowei have both entered the Wuji realm. We don't know their killing power or who is more powerful. Guo Shenghe, Liu Qinghua, Zhang Benchu, and Gao Zhi from the Hengchang Sect have also entered the Guiyuan realm. The Sima family and the Sun family were completely wiped out. Afterwards, Lord Yuwen ordered the people of the Divine Realm to take care of the aftermath of the soldiers." Li Hongshan bowed deeply and reported.

A strange light flashed in the eyes of the Human Emperor, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, saying: "You go back and continue to assist Yu Wenjun."

Li Hongshan retreated slowly without saying a word. To those scholars in Zhengxiong Mountain, Li Hongshan would not say a word.

A lot of things have happened in recent days. The demon Mu Chun successfully defended Xinghan City and achieved an unprecedented feat. The queen of the demon realm also returned to her homeland and began to deal with the struggle properly.

The big fight suddenly stopped.

The Human Emperor feels a little uncomfortable. After the beginning of next spring, the Chaohua Test of the Divine Realm will begin. I wonder how many Qilin Sons will emerge in this Chaohua Test of the Divine Realm.

Everything is still the same as before for the Spiritual Clan, and the foundation has not been damaged. The injuries of His Majesty the Spiritual Emperor should have improved.

No one knows when the world's number one demon king will wake up.

They have all begun to sort out their internal affairs, and it is estimated that there will be three to five years of peace.

The Human Emperor was not surprised to see Bai Xiaowei enter the Wuji Realm. When they first met, the Human Emperor had already judged that Bai Xiaowei could reach the Wuji Realm without a long period of accumulation. That was a very sharp sword, and after entering the Wuji Realm, it would only become sharper and sharper.

However, Xie Yiming's entry into the Wuji Realm surprised the Human Emperor.

When Xie Yiming was young, he was also the number one genius in the south and was highly appreciated by Ji Heng. He was used to living a carefree life and liked a carefree life. He was also quite lazy in his spiritual practice.

Although he is a talented person, his mind is unstable, his roots are insufficient, and he seems to have no lofty ideals in life. Many people were surprised and felt it was extremely sudden that such a person could enter the realm of Wuji in this era.

This is actually good news. The two great figures of the human race entering the Wuji realm will naturally boost the country's fortunes and morale.

Starting from tomorrow, the whole human race will know the news, and it is estimated that many people will spontaneously organize celebrations.

"Suddenly, the human race is thriving." The Human Emperor murmured to himself.

……

At noon, at Qiu Qing's residence.

This Prime Minister's Mansion is as simple as ever, which would make people who are used to a life of luxury subconsciously feel disgusted. However, because it is Qiu Qing's residence, no matter how luxuriously dressed and well-fed the princes and nobles are, they dare not despise this mansion.

But there are still people who dislike it, such as Yuwen Jun.

Qiu Qing was drinking coarse tea in the main hall, planning to eat some steamed buns with pickles later. He hadn't eaten like this for a long time. The simpler the meal, the more delicious it was when he had it occasionally.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, and then Yu Wenjun waved his sleeves lightly, and the snow in the courtyard evaporated in an instant.

"You are still living a simple life here, but you are about to step down. Why don't you seize the last moments and indulge yourself?" Yu Wenjun said this to Qiu Qing in the main hall with a very serious expression.

Qiu Qing put down the teacup and did not intend to stand up to greet him.

Seeing this, the servant nearby hurriedly fetched a pot of tea to entertain the guest.

Yu Wenjun walked slowly towards the main hall, looked at the surrounding scenery, and said thoughtfully: "If you have never enjoyed your life, it would be a pity. The other prime minister has always been very good at enjoying himself."

"In fact, at your age now, it's still not too late."

Qiu Qing showed a loving smile and said calmly: "But I don't have that kind of spirit anymore."

"But I know that you still have such ambition, and you are still in the prime of your life." As he spoke, Yu Wenjun teleported and sat next to Qiu Qing.

Coincidentally, the servant was pouring tea for Yu Wenjun at this moment.

Yu Wenjun laughed heartily and said, "Everyone has different preferences. Some people like beautiful women, and some like antiques and treasures, but I prefer to point out the world and make bold statements."

Hearing this, Qiu Qing got straight to the point and asked, "So, what are you doing here this time?"

Yu Wenjun put his fingers together to form a sword and pointed it at Qiu Qing's forehead.

All the thoughts about the scholars in Masao Mountain and some subsequent plans came into the Prime Minister's mind.

"Bai Xiaowei has entered the Wuji realm. He is the first prime minister in the history of the human race to reach the Wuji realm. So, I hope that you will step down soon. It would be best if you go to His Majesty and ask for permission to make room for Bai Xiaowei." Yu Wenjun said with a sad look on his face.

He didn't like Qiu Qing to step down, but if Qiu Qing didn't step down, the scholars in Zhengxiong Mountain would soon create a lot of mess in the human temple, and he didn't want Qiu Qing to deal with this mess.

At this age and in this state, it’s time to enjoy life.

Qiu Qing's expression gradually became serious, and he took a deep breath and said, "So this is your new policy?"

Yu Wenjun picked up the teacup and took a sip, then glanced at Qiu Qing's face. The Prime Minister's expression was gentle, but there were great waves in his eyes.

"The new policies that I have formulated together with my soul masters are trying to change the way the world is. However, many of these measures may infuriate those who stick to the old ways, and may even lead to criticism. But they will still be of many benefit to the common people," said Yu Wenjun in a soft voice.

Suddenly, Qiu Qing stood up and bowed solemnly to Yuwen Jun.

Seeing this, Yu Wenjun's face changed drastically. He quickly stood up and supported Qiu Qing's arms, saying, "No, no!"

Qiu Qing burst into tears and said, "You did what I wanted to do the most, but I didn't dare to do."

Yu Wenjun's voice trembled slightly as he said, "In fact, I am also crossing the river by feeling the stones. It just so happens that this great struggle can allow many people to die with a legitimate reason. If it were peaceful times, I would not have such courage."

"You are the leader of the Eight Gu, and I am also the leader of the Eight Gu. Perhaps, this is the meaning of inheritance."

Yu Wenjun had seen many elderly people cry, but Qiu Qing's tears were the heaviest...

Qiu Qing's body and mind softened, and she sat on the chair with the help of Yu Wenjun.

Yu Wenjun thought to himself, "My original intention was to let Bai Xiaowei handle these matters. He has just entered the Wuji realm and is at the peak of his powers. The civil and military officials dare not touch this bad luck. As for you, you should enjoy your old age. I will build a courtyard for you deep in Henglong Mountain, where there will be birds singing and flowers blooming, and it will be like spring all year round. The servants will also be very considerate."

Qiu Qing has no children and his parents have passed away long ago. Yuwen Jun wants to create a paradise for such an old man.

Hearing these words, Qiu Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "This is the first time I feel that persuading someone to step down is a kind thing to do. I appreciate the kindness, but I have to pave the way for Bai Xiaowei."

Yu Wenjun said kindly: "Farewell, Bai Xiaowei has his own ideas. If you can pave the way for him, you may make Bai Xiaowei feel thwarted in many places."

"He has entered Wuji and is no longer the Bai Xiaowei of the past."

Qiu Qing's eyes were moist and clear when she heard this, and she asked honestly, "Could it be that Bai Xiaowei thinks I'm old and useless?"

Yu Wenjun quickly shook his head and explained: "I just hope you can have a good ending."

"Let Bai Xiaowei do the bloodshed and pestle floating thing."

"It is estimated that in about a month, Bai Xiaowei will return from the north. At that time, he can voluntarily abdicate."

"You always have to leave some difficult things behind so that Bai Xiaowei, the new official, can start his three major tasks more fiercely."

Qiu Qing laughed, a hearty laugh, and the old man showed a childlike smile.

"I have lived an upright life, and in the end, you, a young man, became my supporter." Qiu Qing wiped his tears, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart. He has seen that a prosperous and vibrant era is on its way...
