Please, let me be a fool

Chapter 135 At the pinnacle of the seventh rank, His Majesty is playing a big game of chess! 【Ask monthly ticket】

As the descendant of the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain, she is still very confident in this.

Although the refining process of Hunyuan Pill seems complicated.

It's my first contact.

Also quite a waste of effort.

But from Taoist Longyu's point of view, he was very much against the opponent.

As long as there are enough medicinal materials, other aspects are nothing.

Besides, there is a detailed refining process in the "Dan Jie", so there is no need to worry.

Wei Yunyi next to him also had a smile on his face when he heard the words, and said: "Okay, then you have to work hard little Heavenly Master."

This is the benefit of having a helper. Any complicated things can only be handed over to others.

Afterwards, he and Taoist Longyu chatted with each other about alchemy.

He didn't stay in the alchemy room any longer, and left with Wang Jin and others.

As for Taoist Longyu, an expression of excitement appeared on his face.

While deciding to wait for the Hunyuan Pill to be refined.

I started my own research on alchemy on the other hand.

Although it was just an idea before, he can be sure in his heart that as long as he starts, he will succeed.

Of course, even Daoist Longyu herself doesn't know what kind of effect the elixir refined according to her ideas will have, but she is still very much looking forward to it.

On the other side, after returning to the bedroom, Wei Yunyi told Wang Jin and others not to disturb.

I took a little rest myself.

Then he took out the seven Great Return Pills that had already been refined.

He knew that these pills might be able to help him break through this time.

Of course, before that, Wei Yunyi held the spiritual marrow jade pendant in his hand.

The purpose is to adjust your own state to the best state.

Thus.

It will be able to better absorb the medicinal power of Dahuandan.

The biggest function of the spiritual marrow jade pendant is to nourish the body and enhance the talent.

Since Wei Yunyi got this item, he can obviously feel that his martial arts practice is much better than before, not because he doesn't know anything, especially as time goes by, this performance will become more and more obvious.

To practice martial arts, the most important thing is talent and resources.

Resources are nothing to him at all, he has as much as he wants.

Is it talent? It has always been a shortcoming.

Now is the chance to change.

Of course we must hurry up.

Of course, Wei Yunyi hadn't consumed much before.

So it doesn't take too much time to adjust it with the spirit marrow jade pendant.

After a while, I feel full of energy, and the state of the whole person is even more refreshing.

He knows that now is the best time to take pills.

So there was no hesitation.

He directly took out the Great Return Pill that he had prepared before, and took it.

hum~
In the next moment, Wei Yunyi only felt the power of Qi and blood in his body vibrating.

Layers of powerful aura also spread at this moment, as if it could not be controlled.

At this moment, he was surprised to find that it was also genuine, but the one refined by the little celestial master was actually much better than the one he had refined before.

Especially the medicinal power in it is extremely majestic, fortunately because of the spirit marrow jade pendant.

His meridian is more tenacious than before, and he can fully bear it.

And this made Wei Yunyi sure.

Even if it is Zhengping, there is still a difference between each other.

Immediately, he completely sank his spirit into the process of refining the elixir.

After the refining of the first Great Returning Pill is completed, the original cultivation level has improved more than before. Of course, it is not the kind of earth-shaking change.

There is no way, the current Wei Yunyi has reached the seventh rank of Martial Dao, even if he takes the elixir, it does not have the same effect as before.

But it doesn't matter, there are still six pills in his hands.

In this way, he took it one by one.

And with the continuous refining of the medicinal power.

Wei Yunyi could feel that his energy and blood had grown stronger.

There is also cultivation, which is also steadily improving, until the refining of the last authentic pill is completed.

His cultivation is at the pinnacle of the seventh rank of martial arts.

The distance broke down again.

Only a layer of window paper is missing.

Sure enough, martial arts practice is much faster by taking pills.

It's just that Wei Yunyi is a little skeptical now, he only has the last inferior Great Repayment Pill left in his hand.

After taking it, I am afraid it will be difficult to break through
But now that we have come to this point.

Even if he has no idea, he will not stop.

So he just adjusted his own state a little, and then swallowed the last pill.

Inferior pills are indeed not as good as genuine ones, but the potency of them has also exceeded Wei Yunyi's expectations.

The power of qi and blood continued to surge and oscillate.

He guided this force and began to attack the realm of the sixth rank of martial arts, wanting to break through the realm in one go.

It's just that with the passage of time, Wei Yunyi found that the power of the medicine began to weaken, and it was not enough to support himself to continue the attack.

That is to say, the seven Great Return Pills that were refined did make his martial arts cultivation base skyrocket, but he still couldn't break through to the sixth rank of martial arts.

Although for these, he had already expected them in his heart.

But when it came to the real face, I still couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

After all, to the sixth grade.

That is the middle third rank of martial arts, which is completely different from the lower third rank.

All aspects will be greatly improved, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has transformed.

Just now, just a little bit
"never mind."

At this time, Wei Yunyi shook his head slightly, since he couldn't rely on pills to break through, then use his own strength.

Although he knew it would be difficult, but now that he is practicing the Dragon Transformation Scripture of the Son of Heaven, coupled with the talent changed by the Essence Jade Pendant, it shouldn't be too difficult.

Especially now, Daoist Longyu has started to refine Hunyuan Pill.

After knowing that it is time to rely on one's own strength to break through.

With the help of Hunyuan Pill.

Maybe the effect will be better.

Otherwise, only relying on pills to break through the situation, fast is fast, but it can't exert the best effect.

The decree had already been issued to stop the court for one month, which meant that nothing would happen for a long time to come.

As for the memorial, isn't there the cabinet and Concubine Ying?
So don't worry at all.

According to Wei Yunyi's estimate, if you don't rely on pills and break through with your own strength, it shouldn't take more than ten days.

It's also good enough.

At this point in his thoughts, Wei Yunyi stopped thinking about it, but turned around and began to practice the Emperor's Dragon Transformation Sutra.

Song Mansion.

People come and go in front of the door.

All kinds of dignitaries in the capital set foot in the Song Mansion on this day.

There is no other reason, it is because the uncle of the small country in the dynasty made great achievements in destroying the country and was named the champion.

This is a great honor, and some officials even speculated that maybe starting today, the Song family will truly rise.

A cabinet assistant, a marquis, and a pregnant queen in the palace.

If nothing else, the future court.

The Song family will have a pivotal position.

Among the entire capital.

I am afraid that only Shenwuhou's Mansion can compare.

And in this case, there are naturally many people who want to curry favor.

But to everyone's surprise, Song Gongwen turned away all visitors at such a time.

As for the reason, it is also very simple: when the child returns from a battle, the whole family should have a good get-together, and then meet with guests in the future.

In this regard, there is no opinion in everyone's mind.

After all, the reasons given by others left people speechless.

But what is frustrating is that Song Gongwen not only rejected all visitors, but also rejected all kinds of gifts.

They had no choice but to go back and said they would visit again in the future.

at this time.

In the lobby of the Song Mansion.

Mrs. Song had been busy all morning and arranged a large table of dishes.

My son has been away for so long and was fighting again. Now that he finally came back and received a reward from His Majesty, it is natural to celebrate it.

Even the servants of the family were rewarded, after all, this was a great joy.

At this time, in front of the table in the lobby.

Mrs. Song took the servants, brought the last dish, looked at her husband and said: "Master, those who came to visit have all been sent away, and now there is no one outside the door, but I don't understand, it's fine if you refuse to visit, Master." Why don't you even accept the gift?"

In her eyes, her son won a big victory, and His Majesty has rewarded him.

Now it's nothing to accept gifts from ministers and dignitaries in the court.

After all, this is also within the allowable range of the imperial court.

After Song Gongwen heard this, he shook his head and said, "Madam, you don't know that besides congratulating these people, a group of them also have a more important purpose, which is about reform."

"Now, the gentry from Jiangnan are already on their way to Beijing and want to ask His Majesty to stop the political reform."

"And I am the leader of this reform. You said that if these visiting people talk about this matter, should I refuse or agree?"

"The reform is a national policy set by His Majesty himself, and there must be no sloppyness. Therefore, at this critical time, we must be cautious."

Having said that, he continued: "Also, now I am the second assistant to the cabinet, which is different from the past."

"The higher the position and weight, the more important it is to keep some things in mind and not to act rashly. After all, the power in my hands comes from His Majesty. Those gifts can be accepted, but after accepting them, will someone let Master Ni and I be in the room?" Is it convenient for some things to go up?"

Beside, Mrs. Song nodded after hearing these words.

She is not a stupid person, and fully understands the meaning of her husband's words.

That's right, those in high positions should be cautious about everything.

Just like the former cabinet assistant Li Fang.

At the beginning in the imperial court, he had a very high prestige and a good reputation, but what happened later?
Looking at his wife, Song Gongwen didn't continue to speak. In fact, there was another reason why he didn't accept those people's visits.That is my teacher Zhang Zhengming.

These days, because the teacher has been confronting His Majesty and opposing His Majesty's decision-making.

Therefore, the reputation has been greatly reduced, and even fewer people visit the door.

in this way.

How could he be at ease with those visitors?

Shaking his head, Song Gongwen stopped thinking about these things, but raised his head and said, "Madam, the dishes are ready, go and call Hong Zhi, let's have a good get-together today."

His son came from Liao Town and had a hard journey, so after the court meeting, he let the other party rest well.

But now, the meals are all ready, so it's time to have a good get-together.

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Song nodded immediately.

Not long after, Song Hongzhi walked over with Song Hongzhi who had changed into a normal uniform.

It's just that Song Hongzhi at this time is different from the excitement in the court.

There seemed to be a little worry on his face.

It seemed that being crowned champion didn't make him happy either.

During the period, Mrs. Song asked, but did not get an answer.

So when he came to the lobby, he gave his husband a wink.

You know, His Majesty has just finished rewarding you, so no matter what, you have to be happy, otherwise you will be criticized if it is spread out.

Seeing this, Song Gongwen smiled softly, obviously he already knew what his son was worried about.He nodded to his wife, then looked at his son and said, "Hongzhi, sit down, your mother has been busy all morning, and they are all your favorite dishes."

Song Hongzhi also came to his senses at this time, seeing the food on the table, his eyes lit up immediately.

Although Wei Yunyi found him a few royal chefs before.

But the problem is.

How can there be such a rich supply of ingredients when fighting abroad?

Even the imperial chef, in the absence of ingredients, is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Now that I saw my favorite dish on weekdays, the previous gloom eased a little, and I sat down immediately.

Song Gongwen shook his head, telling the other party not to worry, and then cut straight to the point: "When I saw you and your mother coming, you were not very interested. Why, are you still worrying about the Gaoyang Governor's Mansion?"

"Yes." Hearing this, Song Hongzhi regained his spirits immediately, and said with some discomfort: "I don't understand, the emperor's brother-in-law, why do you want me to be the guardian of Gaoyang?"

"Although I can command the army, the problem is that I don't know how to govern the country. Father, you know that I haven't read many books."

"I'm talented in fighting, but I'm really not good at managing things like this."

"Why don't you tell the emperor's brother-in-law to remove me as the guardian?"

After the words fell, he sighed slightly.

Originally, when he was in the Great Court Meeting, Song Hongzhi wanted to push down this position.

But knowing that in that situation, it is better to restrain one's temper.

After all, he is from a scholarly family, and he understands which is more important.

"Is it possible for me to change what His Majesty has decided?"

Song Gongwen shook his head, and said: "Gao Yang has the post of guard, and there are countless people staring at him in the court hall. It's good for you, but you actually want to shirk it, it's outrageous!"

Protector of Gaoyang, he is a great official in the frontier, and he is almost comparable to a cabinet scholar in terms of power.

Especially in the local area, it is even more true, and with the status of Marquis, it can be regarded as powerful.

His own son, however, looked like he didn't care, which made him helpless.

"Whoever wants to be the protector, let him go."

"Anyway, I don't want to, I just want to lead troops."

Song Hongzhi sighed, and said: "Since my father can't help me, when I enter the palace in a few days, let my sister persuade the emperor's brother-in-law, I really don't want to go to Gaoyang."

"With my ability to lead troops, I should go to the northern border and defend against the grassland tribes. I've heard that recently, although the 20 troops of the ten tribes of the grassland have retreated under the attack of the old lord, they are not in a state of disintegration. .”

"I think, at this time, I should be allowed to lead the troops up to ensure that the 20 troops will be defeated in one fell swoop!"

As soon as these words came out, Song Gongwen was speechless.

After the battle of Gao Yang, he began to recognize his son as a military advisor.

I also know that, perhaps as said, my son is famous and handsome.

But the grassland army is not different from Gaoyang country.

Prairie cavalry.

That has threatened the Central Plains for hundreds of years, and several dynasties could not solve it.

Now that his son said it so easily, he naturally didn't know what to say.

Immediately, Song Gongwen took a deep breath, his tone became solemn, and continued: "Actually, I think it is a very good thing for you to serve as the guardian of Gaoyang, and I suspect that this is His Majesty's game of chess. .”

This sentence made Song Hongzhi slightly startled, and couldn't help but said: "The emperor's brother-in-law is playing a big game of chess? Why did father say such a thing?"

He felt that the place of Gaoyang was nothing in front of Da Wei.

According to my father,

seems very important
Let him not understand.

But at this time, Song Gongwen thought for a while before slowly opening his mouth: "At first, I didn't understand why His Majesty asked you to be the guardian of Gaoyang. As a father, I still know your ability. talent."

"If you go, you won't be able to do anything other than frighten Gao Yang and calm down the chaos."

Beside, Song Hongzhi couldn't help but put down the chopsticks in his hand when he heard this.

Such an evaluation would be unacceptable to others for a while.

It's just that he rarely refuted.

After all, Song Hongzhi understood that his father was right.

My own talents are only in the military, and I have no experience in governing the local area, and I have no way to start.

So he just sat quietly by the side, waiting for the next step.

Song Gongwen smiled when he saw this, and continued, "But it wasn't until I thought about it on the way back that I realized that His Majesty's move had a purpose. Hongzhi, think about it, where is Gao Yang's position?"

where?

"East of Liao Town, adjacent to the east of the grassland."

Song Hongzhi was stunned for a moment, but soon opened his eyes wide, as if realizing something: "Wait, the eastern part of the grassland is right, why didn't I expect that Gaoyang is not only bordered by our Great Wei, but also part of the area is adjacent to the grassland. Accepted?"

Song Gongwen next to him nodded and said, "Although Gaoyang is nearly a thousand miles away from the core area of ​​the grassland, during this journey, it can be said that there are no mountains or rivers."

"Hongzhi, if you imagine it this way, what if one day you lead an army from Gaoyang to attack the grassland?"

As soon as these words came out, Song Hongzhi's eyes brightened.

The biggest trouble for the imperial court is actually the Eighteenth Department of the Grassland.

Just like the crisis in the north today.

There are only ten unions.

However, the entire Wei Dynasty needs to be mobilized, and even the troops in the Liaodong area are always ready.

What is the most fundamental reason?
Isn't it because the grassland cavalry is powerful, which is a serious problem for the Central Plains.

In the past dynasties, the Central Plains' defense of the grasslands has always relied on the terrain and passively resisted. Even if they take the initiative to attack, the routes that can be chosen are very limited, and this further limits the Central Plains' large-scale attacks on the grasslands.

But what if, at this time, a new offensive route could be opened up to deal with the grassland?
