The gods of the gods

Chapter 20
"It just so happens that I used the reason of cultivating the Heaven-Bending Divine Art in retreat in the Taixu Realm. Now I have a long time to practice, and I am afraid that when I leave this world, it will be enough to cultivate the Heaven-Bending Divine Art to the peak of the third level .In this way, after I return to the Taixu Realm, I can completely re-train the Heaven-Mending Divine Art to the third level in the shortest possible time." Thinking of Emperor Zhengde's irritated mind because of the difficulty in making progress in martial arts, he gradually calmed down down.

For a long time, his many arrangements, calculations, and even actions in this world are aimed at allowing himself to live better and thus have more time to practice.After all, the Hongmeng Great Thousand Mirror is not unlimited to travel through the world, and it is impossible to carry yourself through the world without sufficient energy, so you have to seize every opportunity to travel through the world.

But now, he is the Lord of ZTE in the Ming Dynasty, the Lord of the Celestial Dynasty from all nations, and his power is unparalleled.No one in the world can kill him, he has fulfilled the most basic condition for himself to come to this world, to be alive.

There is no longer any threat to his own safety. As long as the Ming Dynasty is operating normally, he can already spend a lot of time on cultivation.

Thinking of this, Jiang Hao began to call out the memory that Dean Liu Mu had branded in his mind before, and began to think about the practice of the Heaven-Mending Divine Art.

The Heaven-Bending Divine Art is different from most of the cultivation methods in this world. What is cultivated in this world is the divine treasure of essence and blood, while the divine art of Butening the Sky develops the divine treasure of vitality.Essence, Blood and Divine Treasure is to refine qi and transform into essence, to nourish one's body with everything in the world, so as to cultivate an indestructible body.However, the practice of Yuanqi Shenzang is to draw qi into the body, refine qi and transform it into a god. It is another way to use one's own power to draw the power of heaven and earth for one's own use.

For ordinary people, it is almost impossible to open up a divine storehouse of vitality, or a divine storehouse of essence and blood without more than ten years of hard work.Even in the world of number one in the world, there are not many people who have broken through the innate and opened up the treasure of essence and blood before.

Don't you see, even the three spies of Tiandixuan who have followed the God of Tiedan Zhu Wushi for more than ten years, none of them opened up the treasure of spirit and blood before. No one can be found in the whole rivers and lakes.

But that is for others. For Jiang Hao, who has been cultivating in the Taixu Realm for more than ten years, and has already opened up the spiritual treasure of essence and blood and the divine treasure of vitality, it is not very important to him to re-open the divine treasure of vitality. difficult things.

Of course, it's not that simple. After all, his foundation in this world is all about martial arts, not the way of training qi.It will take a period of time to accumulate vitality to re-open up the Divine Vital Energy Treasure, but this is exactly what he meant.

------------------

Seven years after the commercial reform, the economy of the entire Ming Dynasty has doubled again compared to the five years of reform, and after having money, the Ming Dynasty also began to pay attention to Wenzhiwugong, opened schools in various places and prefectures, and spread them on a large scale across the country. the cultivation of talents.At the same time, the progress of commerce, in turn, promotes the progress of industry, and industry promotes the progress of agriculture. Everything in the Ming Dynasty seems to be on the right track, developing towards a prosperous and prosperous direction.

In the Forbidden City, in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Emperor Zhengde sat under the Empress Dowager's hands, looking rather distressed. "Mother, over the years, my son has been carrying out business reforms, promoting the economy of the entire Ming Dynasty, and handling state affairs. There is no time to choose a concubine at all. Why don't we postpone this matter for now?"

The Empress Dowager snorted softly, "Emperor, of course I know a thing or two about the development of Daming over the years. The emperor has indeed done a very good job in state affairs, comparable to Taizu and Chengzu, and is the master of my Ming's revival. But emperor, although important national affairs are important, it is also a major event to continue the incense of the royal family. Before the Ai family thought that the reason was the queen and the others, but after asking, they found out that the reason lies with you, the emperor."

"Since the emperor's son became the emperor, I didn't say much about the sensuality in the past few years. After the emperor became enlightened, he worked hard to manage Daming in an orderly manner. The Ai family is very pleased. But you can't complain that the harem is not here. Take care, let the queen wait for the concubine to stay alone in the vacant room, if you mourn the family like this, you may not be able to hold your grandson after you close your eyes." The queen mother said very sadly.

"Mother, this matter can't be rushed. My son is now in his prime, and Da Ming is also developing. I really don't have time to manage the affairs of the harem." Emperor Zhengde politely declined.

"Huh! The emperor can't spare time, so let the queen and Aijia take care of it for you." The queen mother clapped her hands lightly, and several eunuchs walked in with a bunch of scrolls.The queen mother waved lightly, and many eunuchs opened the scrolls one by one, revealing portraits of ladies.

The queen mother pointed to these portraits and said, "Your Majesty, look at these portraits, all of which are selected by the queen mother for you. You see, she is the third daughter of the Minister of the Household Department. Look at her bright eyes and teeth, born Beauty, you should have the image of a concubine. And this is the daughter of General Wu, she is slim and beautiful like a flower, and I feel pity for her when I see it..."

Seeing the portraits of these women introduced by the Queen Mother one by one, the corners of Emperor Zhengde's mouth twitched, and then he shook his head slightly and said, "Queen Mother, the child is now 24, and each of these women is only fifteen or sixteen years old. The age difference is too big. , inappropriate, inappropriate."

Unexpectedly, the queen mother didn't get angry when she heard this, but instead smiled and said, "It turns out that the emperor doesn't like people who are younger than him, come here! Change the batch."

After the queen mother finished speaking, the eunuch below quickly put away the scrolls and opened another pile of scrolls.The women in these scrolls were much older than the previous batch. What made Emperor Zhengde speechless was that he saw many women from foreign countries and other countries.

"Queen, how come there are women from other foreign countries!" Emperor Zhengde wondered.

The queen mother said with a serious face, "The emperor doesn't like the queen and the concubines in the harem. It is very likely that he is used to seeing women from my Ming Dynasty, so this palace has also collected a lot of portraits of princesses from other countries. Now the prestige of my Ming Dynasty All over the world, I don’t know how many princesses from countries are willing to come to our court to marry. In the past, the emperor was able to concentrate on government affairs and these things were suppressed, but now it’s no longer possible.”

Emperor Zhengde smiled wryly and said, "The mother thinks too much, the child was just busy with government affairs, it wasn't true..." Before Emperor Zhengde finished speaking, his eyes suddenly fell on a portrait, of course what he saw It's not the woman in the portrait, but the line written on the portrait, the daughter of the Liusheng family in Dongying - Liusheng Piaoxu.

Emperor Zhengde frowned, pointed to the eunuch who opened the scroll and said, "Come forward."

The emperor who was looking at it finally found one among the many scrolls, and the queen mother was naturally very happy, "Hurry up and bring the scrolls for the emperor to look at."

"Yes." The little eunuch replied, and quickly stepped forward, respectfully placing the portrait in front of Emperor Zhengde.

"Can the emperor take a fancy to this person?" The queen mother smiled and said, "Don't worry, the emperor, the women in these portraits are all princesses or heirs of officials from various countries. Clearly, but the Liusheng family is a first-class family in Japan, and has the qualifications to enter the palace as companions."

Emperor Zhengde shook his head slightly and said, "My mother, the Liusheng family is not just a first-class family in Dongying. It is quite interesting that such a woman is sent to my side!"

"What?" The Empress Dowager's heart skipped a beat, and she asked with an ugly face, "Is what the emperor said true?"

Seeing Emperor Zhengde nodding, the Empress Dowager's expression suddenly sank. The information system of Hulong Villa is famous all over the world, especially after the commercial reform, with the full support of Wan Sanqian, the richest person in the world, information from all countries will be passed on , the emperor must know much more than he knows.

"What a Dongying, what a Liusheng family, they want to send people with high martial arts skills to lurk beside the emperor. If she tries to harm the emperor, it will be too terrible." Thinking of this, the queen mother felt cold and cold in her heart. of.

Emperor Zhengde saw that the queen mother was full of annoyance, and quickly comforted him, "You don't have to worry about this, queen mother, women who want to enter the palace have to go through various screenings in the palace, so naturally they will not be given any advantage. You can rest assured, Queen Mother."

"As for the matter of the harem, mother, you can also rest assured that the child will follow your instructions and will take time to go to the harem in the future, fulfilling your wish to have a grandson as soon as possible. As for the matter of choosing a concubine, don't mention it again, how about it?" Emperor Zhengde took advantage of the Empress Dowager feeling sorry for him, so he opened his mouth quickly.

"Since the emperor said so, let's do it!" The queen mother sighed, "The Ai family is a little tired, the emperor, go get busy!"

"Okay, the empress mother has a good rest, and my son will leave." Seeing this, Emperor Zhengde waved his hand to let the eunuchs retreat, and then left the Palace of Compassion and Ning.
