Ouchi Taming the Cat, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!

Chapter 735 Father’s love is like a mountain
"Ah Xuan, it is difficult for a war to be reversed by a few masters, even those in the Heavenly Dao realm are the same."

Emperor Yongyuan patiently explained to Li Xuan.

"But what you said is also a good idea. I hope Duke Hu can hold on until then."

Emperor Yongyuan sighed. He didn't have any better solution at the moment.

There is a reason why the dynastic struggle lasted so long.

Even though Daxing had two saintly emperors back then, they only overthrew the previous dynasty and failed to unify the world.

This is because the foundations of the major dynasties are unfathomable, and even those who have reached the realm of heaven find it difficult to shake them.

If the previous dynasty had not experienced irreparable corruption first, it would have been difficult for the Twin Saints to overthrow it.

After all, every great dynasty was established by a man of destiny, and left behind considerable means.

Just like Daxing has the Dragon Transformation Battle Formation and the profound inner world, other dynasties also have similar accumulations.

Now Daxing has become weaker than ever because of internal struggles.

Otherwise, when the country is strong, even if there is a destined person who wants to overthrow the dynasty, the chance of success is probably not high.

No matter how powerful the Chosen One is, he is just one person and needs enough followers to overthrow a dynasty.

Although both the dynasty and the martial arts holy land are transcendental forces, if you look closely, the dynasty is actually more powerful than the martial arts holy land.

Although the dynasty can obtain a large amount of resources and fortune in an area, the risks are also great and it is easy to be contaminated by irresistible cause and effect.

The inheritance of a martial arts holy land is easy to continue. Although there are some competing factors, the risks are much smaller.

But dynasties are different.

Most dynasties lasted less than a thousand years, and lasting beyond a thousand years was considered a milestone.

Therefore, for a dynasty, being able to pass on for more than a thousand years is a very important symbol.

But the difficulty is not controlled by the royal family of the dynasty at all.

Due to the unpredictable human heart and complex interests, the dynasty as a force decays much faster than the holy land of martial arts.

There is justice in the world. When you gain something, you will inevitably lose something.

This is also the reason why the unspoken rule that martial arts holy places do not participate in dynastic struggles comes from this.

Every unspoken rule is designed to protect the interests of the vested interests.

They abide by these unspoken rules more for their own interests.

Now, because of Li Xuan, more and more martial arts holy places are being drawn into the civil strife in Daxing.

Emperor Yongyuan explained these things in detail to Li Xuan in order to define a feasible range.

It would definitely not work to let the holy land of martial arts participate in the action against the desert.

But can the rebellions in various places be suppressed with the help of the power of the martial arts holy land?

Especially a sect like Qianren Jiange, which takes it as its mission to be chivalrous and righteous.

Now, the source of instability within Daxing has been eliminated.

King Zheng is dead and the evil dragon is accused.

The remaining rebels can only show off their power for a while, and will eventually be suppressed.

But what Daxing needs right now is time. Otherwise, not only will Duke Hu and his advance army be defeated in the desert, but they may also sound the clarion call for a counterattack in the desert.

Daxing, which is now caught in internal and external troubles, is like a piece of fat meat delivered to Damo's mouth.

Emperor Yongyuan expressed his thoughts and then asked for the opinions of the two general managers and Li Xuan.

The three of them have more say in matters like this.

The two stewards took a cautious attitude towards this matter.

They believed that before doing so, it was a prerequisite to restore the Imperial Household Department's control over various parts of Daxing.

Otherwise, if any unexpected event occurs, it may add fuel to the fire and make the people even more dissatisfied with the government.

It is possible to let the holy places of martial arts join in suppressing the rebels in various places, but the prerequisite is that there must be perfect guidance from the government to minimize the risks.

This is the opinion of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

As for Li Xuan, he realized the risks only after listening to the opinions of the two general managers.

"As the two stewards said, it would be fine if the people who came to help were all chivalrous and brave, but I'm afraid some of them have malicious intentions."

"Even if there is no malicious intent, it's not good to create some misunderstandings."

Human affairs are the hardest to deal with. Even good things can be messed up, but it is not uncommon.

It would be fine if this was done intentionally, but I'm afraid that some smart-aleck idiots will do something bizarre that exceeds the limits of imagination.

"I also agree with the two managers. If we want to invite foreign aid to participate, we must conduct strict review."

"And it's best to have a legitimate reason so that others won't use it to make a fuss about it later."

"So I guess going through the Red Turban Team is a good idea?"

Everyone present was smart, and they understood what Li Xuan meant after he said this.

"Ah Xuan, are you saying that we should let the disciples of the Holy Land of Martial Arts take the entrance examination first, and after they successfully join the Red Turban Team, they can help suppress the rebellions in various places in the name of the Red Turban Team?"

Emperor Yongyuan confirmed to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan nodded, feeling somewhat nervous as to whether they would agree.

After all, if this were really done, the Red Scarf Team’s strength and reputation would be taken to a higher level.

But in this matter, Li Xuan did not have much selfish motives, but really thought that this was feasible.

Otherwise, if Emperor Yongyuan directly accepted help from many martial arts holy places, I am afraid it would be difficult to repay this favor in the future.

If there is a red scarf team in the middle, at least there will be some room for each other.

Emperor Yongyuan discussed with everyone present and finally agreed to Li Xuan's proposal.

Because everyone knows that the Holy Land of Martial Arts is willing to help mainly because of Li Xuan, the man of destiny.

It would obviously be more appropriate if Li Xuan and the Red Scarf Team were to handle this matter.

After the matter was settled, Emperor Yongyuan allowed Li Xuan to rest in the city.

Anyway, if there is any situation in the Meteorite Dragon Pit, the eunuchs in flowery clothes from the Ministry of Internal Affairs will come to report it immediately.

After the discussion here ended, Li Xuan immediately went to find Princess Ankang.

After being apart for many days, Li Xuan and the two girls were affectionate again.

During this period, while Li Xuan was busy repairing the dragon balls and the altar, they were not idle either.

Princess Ankang handled many affairs and accumulated a lot of relevant experience.

Now with Emperor Yongyuan's recovery, Princess Ankang is no longer as busy as before.

However, Emperor Yongyuan still entrusted Princess Ankang with some important matters.

During this period, the little girl lived up to everyone's expectations and handled things in an orderly manner, which made the officials who cooperated with her admire her very much.

After all, Princess Ankang is only a thirteen-year-old princess this year, and it is extremely rare for her to have such ability.

But Li Xuan also knew very well that Princess Ankang was not very keen on power.

On the contrary, it is responsibility that makes her do these things well. She hopes that her abilities can help more people and make Daxing a better place.

The little girl doesn't have any lofty ambitions, she just hopes to do her part for the world.

Li Xuan was naturally proud of the little girl's awareness.

If everyone in this world could think this way, the world would not be so difficult.

In the previous battle in the capital city, Princess Ankang and Yu'er also accumulated a lot of practical experience.

Especially Yu'er, who has shown signs of a breakthrough.

Her cultivation reached the peak of the eighth level during her southern tour.

In the previous battle in the capital city, she had fought hard to protect Princess Ankang and had grown a lot.

What surprised Li Xuan the most was Sharon's progress.

Her previous strength had only recovered to the fifth level. With the help of the cat claw mark left in her body by Li Xuan, she could barely recover to the third level.

Sharon used this power in the battle in the capital city, and it resulted in her strength being stabilized at the peak of the fourth level, and she could recover to the third level at any time.

Even Li Xuan was shocked by the speed of regaining his cultivation.

Moreover, Sharon's re-cultivation made her foundation more solid and she also gained a new understanding of her past realm.

In general, Sharon is much stronger now than she was in the same realm in the past. Of course, Sharon's situation is almost impossible to replicate.

If it weren't for Li Xuan's help, her life would have been sacrificed to the holy fire long ago, and there would have been no chance for her to start over.

Seeing that they were living well during this period, Li Xuan felt relieved.

That night, Princess Ankang slept in the same bed with Li Xuan, just like she did in Jingyang Palace.

Li Xuan, just like before, held the little girl's head in his arms and slept very comfortably.

In the past half month, it was rare for Li Xuan to have a good sleep.

The next morning, Li Xuan was still lying in bed with Princess Ankang when he was summoned by Emperor Yongyuan again.

Li Xuan went to see Emperor Yongyuan in a bad mood, only to find that there was another person in his room.

"Liang Zhao?"

Li Xuan still has a deep impression of this person.

The main reason is that Li Xuan and his daughter Liang Chuchu had some past, so he was particularly concerned about Liang Chuchu's father.

When Li Xuan arrived, he found that both of them were looking at him.

Emperor Yongyuan did not find him strange, but Liang Zhao looked at him with an extremely respectful look.

"Liang Qing, he is Ah Xuan."

Emperor Yongyuan gave an introduction.

As a result, Liang Zhao actually bowed to Li Xuan and performed a great salute.

"Thank you, Master Xuan, for taking care of my daughter. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me. I, as your father, will apologize to you."

Li Xuan accepted the gift but did not move away.

Judging from Liang Zhao's attitude, he should know Li Xuan's identity as the Chosen One.

Li Xuan thought about it, but couldn't help asking:
"When your daughter first entered the palace, it was no exaggeration to say that she was a fool. Are you so confident in sending her to be a talented person?"

Although Liang Zhao was mentally prepared, he still felt a little strange when he was questioned by a cat for the first time.

But thinking of Li Xuan's identity, he did not dare to neglect it and immediately replied:
"You have to put on a complete show. If you don't do this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to gain King Zheng's complete trust and come to the Jiangnan Road, the rear base."

Emperor Yongyuan also said: "Without Liang Qing's lurking, the rebellion in Jiangnan Road would not have been so easily quelled. All the materials accumulated by King Zheng over the years are for my use. Liang Qing also knows the situation in other places very well."

It seems that Liang Zhao served as the chief steward of internal affairs for King Zheng in Jiangnan Road.

But it was precisely because he held an important position that the accumulation of Prince Zheng over the years finally benefited Emperor Yongyuan.

So what if I have been greedy for so many years?
After all, it returned to the hands to which it belonged.

Li Xuan shook his head, feeling deeply moved.

However, Li Xuan did not comment on the actions of Emperor Yongyuan and Liang Zhao.

Both of them are politicians, and they are so ruthless that they don't even care about their daughter's life or death.

Liang Zhao seemed to have seen through Li Xuan's thoughts and continued to explain:
"Master Xuan, it's not that I'm cruel about my daughter's matter, but there is someone else I trust who is worthy of entrusting."

"Of course, even the person involved didn't know about this. I did gamble my daughter's life on the other party's character."

When Liang Zhao said this, Li Xuan narrowed his eyes and thought of something.

"Wang Suyue."

When Liang Zhao heard Li Xuan say this name, he was stunned.

"Master Xuan knows Su Yue?"

Seeing Liang Zhao's reaction, Li Xuan's eyes turned and he understood a lot of things.

From this point of view, it is no coincidence that Liang Chuchu and Wang Suyue entered the palace as talents at the same time.

Emperor Yongyuan understood the reason better because of Li Xuan.

Liang Zhao was dismissed from office last year. It seemed that it was a revenge against civil officials by Emperor Yongyuan on the grounds that someone was causing chaos in the harem and interfering with the succession to the throne.

But Liang Zhao's dismissal and return to his hometown was actually the result of a conspiracy between the two men for many years. It just happened that there was a perfect opportunity last year, and Emperor Yongyuan went with the flow.

But in order to avoid any flaws, Emperor Yongyuan kept paying the minimum attention to Liang Chuchu. However, he did not expect that Liang Chuchu would cause trouble as soon as she entered the palace.

Emperor Yongyuan learned about Liang Chuchu's affairs at Jingyang Palace through the investigation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs after he began to pay attention to Li Xuan.

As the two stewards came into more and more contact with Li Xuan, they discovered something unusual about him.

When everyone fully discovered Li Xuan's potential, all the strange things that happened before were answered.

But Li Xuan was only trying to save himself and preserve Jingyang Palace at that time.

Moreover, compared with Li Xuan's value, those things had no meaning to be pursued. After that, the two stewards kept a tacit understanding and let the matter go. No one mentioned it in front of Li Xuan again.

They were just eunuchs and palace maids who deserved their punishment. Compared with Li Xuan, they were nothing.

Emperor Yongyuan thought about it and decided to make his point clear.

Therefore, he told Li Xuan and Liang Zhao about Liang Chuchu's actions against Jingyang Palace in front of them.

Upon hearing this, Liang Zhao hurriedly knelt down and apologized to Li Xuan.

"My daughter is ignorant and stupid, please forgive me, Master Xuan!"

"It's all because I didn't teach my daughter well and was too indulgent to her!"

"If Master Xuan is still holding a grudge, please come to me. The blame lies with me!"

Before, Emperor Yongyuan only said that Liang Chuchu had offended Li Xuan, the man of destiny, after entering the palace.

Liang Zhao had not expected that his daughter would cause him such a big disaster.

Seeing Liang Zhao's sincere feelings and words, Li Xuan just shook his head, then turned around and rolled his eyes at Emperor Yongyuan.

Emperor Yongyuan coughed awkwardly.

He didn't tell Liang Zhaoming before just to make his reaction more realistic.

Li Xuan is a sensible cat, so he concluded that Li Xuan would not make things difficult for Liang Zhao.

But Li Xuan could not hide his thoughts.

Of course, Emperor Yongyuan had no intention of hiding it from him.

After all, Liang Zhao had made great contributions this time, so Emperor Yongyuan still wanted Li Xuan to give him some face.

Li Xuan just rolled his eyes at Emperor Yongyuan and didn't think much about it.

Liang Chuchu was indeed at fault for provoking their Jingyang Palace, but she also received the punishment she deserved.

At the beginning, Li Xuan hated this arrogant eldest lady so much that she wanted to cut off the food supply to Jingyang Palace and use their lives to please Empress Wu.

But when Li Xuan saw what happened to Liang Chuchu after she fell into trouble, he felt relieved at first, but later he felt a little bit reluctant and stopped seeking revenge on the unfortunate child.

Compared to those who intentionally do evil, people like Liang Chuchu who harm others out of ignorance and stupidity make people angry and pity them.

Later facts proved that Liang Chuchu was not a bad person by nature, but the environment she was in made her grow up like that.

I'm afraid even his family knows nothing about Liang Zhao's plan.

Liang Chuchu grew up in such a special environment, so naturally she couldn't live as openly and with a clear conscience as Wang Suyue.

Li Xuan was not polite and told all the details he saw about Liang Chuchu.

When Liang Zhao heard that Liang Chuchu was bullied by palace maids, beaten and kicked, and even had a dung bucket poured on her after Liang Chuchu fell into trouble because of Liang Zhao's dismissal from office, the old politician could not help but close his eyes and shed tears.

Liang Chuchu is so willful, and Liang Zhao, as a father, must treat his daughter like a treasure.

Liang Zhao felt very sad when he heard that his daughter had gone through so much suffering.

But Li Xuan knew that for a man like Liang Zhao, his daughter was not as important as the country.

But Liang Zhao's next words changed Li Xuan's mind a little.

"At a birthday party for King Zheng, my young daughter suddenly ran back crying. She hugged my legs and cried so hard that she couldn't stop crying no matter how hard I tried to comfort her."

"I took my little girl to the corner and asked her what was wrong."

"My daughter didn't say anything, she just kept saying things like 'Wang Suyue is a fool, I won't play with her anymore'."

"Wang Suyue was my daughter's best friend at the time. I sent my servants to inquire about it and found out the reason."

Liang Zhao said, and he couldn't help but sighed: "At that time, the conflict between the civil and military officials in the court was becoming increasingly serious. I didn't expect that this matter would even affect the children."

Liang Zhao looked at Li Xuan and said solemnly:
"At that time, I thought that adult matters should never involve children."

"So I hope that in the future there will be a dynasty where my little daughter and Wang Suyue can continue to be good friends."
