King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

"But Your Majesty, what will those ministers think of you?" Queen Zhou frowned.

She was a little puzzled. Not to mention the civil and military officials in the court, even the palace maids and eunuchs regarded Zhu Youjian as a laughing stock, even Zhu Youjian himself was the same.

Zhu Youjian also knew this.

"Do you look down on me? Whatever you want! Why do I need them to look down on me? I don't need to explain anything I do in my life to others."

Empress Zhou embraced Zhu Youjian in her arms and said softly:
"Your Majesty has the final say! I will definitely go with you!"

Queen Zhou hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Your Majesty, since you ascended the throne, Wei Zhongxian has been looking for women everywhere, saying that he wants them to be your concubines, but there are too many concubines in the palace."

"Is that true?" Sun Yunsheng was stunned. Zhu Youjian thought about it and realized that Wei Zhongxian wanted to please him on the one hand, and on the other hand, he wanted to make some money by selecting maids. Nowadays, even being a eunuch costs money.

"It's not that I'm jealous. I just think that those women are from ordinary families. If we force them to do anything, it will be too hurtful and will likely arouse public resentment. Moreover, having so many concubines will also increase our expenses."

"I have experienced the pain of separation and death, so I naturally don't want other sisters to experience the same pain."

real or fake?

A memory of Zhu Youjian was awakened. He calculated that over the past year, there were more than a dozen concubines and countless beautiful women in the palace.

Although he is also a passionate man.

Even donkeys can't stand it.

Besides, as a young man in the 21st century, it is not impossible for him to marry several wives.

To be honest, I am a young man who advocates fairness and fights for human civilization.

Coming to a new dynasty made him feel a little uncomfortable.

The rules and strict hierarchy in the court made everyone in the palace numb, so he was always surprised when someone knelt down to him.

This is not a saint, but the norm in modern society.

For Zhu Tan, he only has one lover in his life, and that is his lover.

The person she likes is very similar to Queen Zhou.

If there were so many concubines and maids, Yue Zhong would really find it difficult to adapt.

In any case, after coming here, Ye Xiao had a very realistic feeling, that is, he did not like living in this palace that looked like a paradise but was actually a purgatory on earth.

Let's change it...

When Zhou Bao's warm little hands moved on his body, Zhu Youjian felt a shock all over his body, as if struck by lightning. Then, he turned around with an idea.

"I have a way that can not only rescue those women, but also make Wei Zhongxian relax his vigilance against me. It's a two-birds-at-one deal. I'd like to ask the Queen to cooperate with me!"

……

At this time, Zhu Youjian was covering his ears with his hands and closing his eyes to rest.

Queen Zhou is really good at acting.

This ruthless method is just like that of a virtuous queen!

Zhu Youjian began to doubt whether every woman who looked gentle and lovely was actually a vicious woman.

Otherwise, how could he have achieved such outstanding results!

Queen Zhou felt very sympathetic towards Zhu Youjian. She took out a bottle of safflower ointment, applied it on Zhu Youjian's skin, and rubbed it gently.

"Your Majesty, what are your plans now?"

Zhu Youjian thought for a moment and said, "I want to take a break. I want to practice!"

"Your Highness, you are joking. Do you really want to become an immortal?" Queen Zhou asked in surprise.

"Of course!" Zhu Youjian looked confident.

"If I can achieve enlightenment, then Wei Zhongxian won't be able to do anything to me."

While Zhu Youjian was speaking, Empress Zhou suddenly knelt down:
"Your Majesty! Absolutely not! In ancient times, Qin Shi Huang failed to become an immortal and died young. Our ancestor Jiajing died while seeking the truth! "Your Majesty, the path to immortality is nothing but emptiness! You must not take the wrong path."

Empress Zhou's words were sincere and heartfelt, and she was obviously afraid that Zhu Youjian would follow in the footsteps of Jiajing, so she said so.

She had previously thought that Zhu Youjian was an extremely intelligent person, but after listening to what Zhu Youjian said, she felt that he was a psychopath.

This made Zhu Youjian feel extremely complicated.

He thought that Queen Zhou was his best friend and would understand this, but he didn't expect that she and everyone else thought it was fake!

The path to immortality is illusory, so if one is really reborn into the Ming Dynasty, wouldn’t it be all in vain?

Isn't it meaningless to promote the development of history through reform?
Isn’t it a fantasy that the weak can defeat a higher civilization?

all fake!

Zhu Tan always had a feeling that it was unreal.

It's like a dream.

The time travelers are not only Zhu Tan, but also Zhu Youjian.

Two memories, one and a half emotions
Will Zhu Tan pass through Zhu Youjian, or will Zhu Youjian eat Zhu Tan?
The thought of this made him go crazy.

……

The more he thought about it, the more confused his thoughts became.

Zhu Youjian calmed himself down, not knowing how to explain the matter of cultivation to Queen Zhou.

Since it is a fact, there is no need to say more.

When he thought of this, Zhu Youjian turned away in anger.

Why is spiritual practice so hard to understand? Is it hard to understand?
Zhu Youjian thought of his ancestors.

His ancestors lived during the Jiajing period.
He was a famous emperor in the world of immortal cultivation in the Ming Dynasty.

While this is a great example, there is a lot to learn from it.

Zhu Youjian searched the entire palace and discovered that this was the alchemy room built specifically for him by Emperor Jiajing.

Pushing the door open, although it has been closed for a long time, it is still spotless.

This is a long bookshelf filled with various Taoist classics.

In the center of the alchemy room, there was a green robe hanging. The curtains were drawn, revealing a jade bed for meditation.

It's an indescribable feeling.

When Zhu Youjian walked into the alchemy room, a slight sound was heard.

A cold electronic synthesizer sounded:
"Get a new mission!"

Zhu Youjian did not hesitate and opened the letter immediately.

【Complete the mission: Join the Huashan Nine Immortals Sect.】

【Duration: 3 days】

[Level: Primary?]

【Attention: There will be a bloody storm within three days. 】

"Got the mission hint: Get two marrow cleansing pills!"

"Become a disciple of Huashan?"

Are you kidding me? From here to Huashan, it's at least more than a thousand kilometers.

Where can I find a master if I can't even fly a sword?

And can I still leave the palace?

joke?

How can this be?

Will there be a bloody storm in three days?
This is incredible!

Zhu Youjian had no choice but to give up.

The most important thing now is this bloody disaster.

The most important thing is that he must reach the first level of Qi training in the shortest possible time. Only in this way, combined with the "Xiaoyao Sword Technique", will he be able to fight.

three days later.

Zhu Youjian sat upright on a jade couch in an alchemy room.

"Hu-hu-"

"Hu-hu-"

"Hu-hu-"

In this way, Zhu Youjian began to adjust his body according to the system's prompts.

This new breathing method really worked. Zhu Youjian felt that the breath in his body was changing rapidly.

This power is simply incredible!
When the eyes are closed, the body's senses are greatly heightened and more sensitive.

When he opened his eyes again, everything in front of him became clear. Seven or eight meters away, a dragonfly's wings were flapping.

Zhu Youjian closed his eyes again and checked his condition.

"Practice level: Qi training failed (99% completion)."

What happened? Why is there only one percent left?

Just as he was about to complain, the interface in front of him suddenly flashed and the properties changed.

"Practice level: Qi training failed (100%)."

"Practice: Qi training level one!"

At the same time, the system's voice also sounded: "You have passed the test and have reached the Qi training realm."

Zhu Youjian was in a complicated mood. It turned out that this situation occurred because the game was in progress.

This is a system that subverts traditional concepts. What exactly is it?
Is there any scientific basis for this?
Logically speaking, this is just a piece of code, why does it appear above his head?

So, where did this system come from? And this time.

He didn't feel anything before, but at this moment, he felt something was wrong.

Just as Zhu Youjian was about to ask, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded behind him.

Wei Zhongxian entered with a man and a woman.

When Wei Zhongxian saw Zhu Youjian, he bowed down:

"Long live your majesty!"

What a bullshit!

In a few hundred years, the human race will be exterminated. By then, who will still be alive?
For some reason, Zhu Youjian's thinking became clearer and his ability to taunt became stronger.

It seems that he also complained in the same way.

The title of Viper was not given to him casually.

"Stand up!" a voice came from behind.

Zhu Youjian said casually, and his eyes fell on a man and a woman, both of whom were dressed as Taoists.

Wei Zhongxian said, "Your Majesty, I have issued an order these two days to invite two Taoists to see you. They are both Taoists from the Nine Immortal Sect of Mount Hua."

Could it be someone from the Jiuxian Sect?

Isn’t this the mission of the Nine Immortals Sect?

Since everyone from the Jiuxian Sect has come, doesn’t that mean that this mission is most likely for this purpose?

Zhu Youjian finally understood, and thinking of the bloody disaster, he looked at everyone vigilantly.

The men were about twenty-four or twenty-five, and the women were eighteen or nineteen.

The man was not handsome, but the woman was quite heroic. Zhu Youjian stared at the Taoist woman for a long time.
The woman had fair skin, an oval face, almond-shaped eyes, and a beautiful nose. Her appearance made her truly stunningly beautiful.

Her plump breasts are covered by the robe, but her curvy figure can still be seen.

Zhu Youjian asked, "Why don't you kneel down and worship?"

"Why don't you kneel down when you see the emperor! Otherwise, the emperor will exterminate all nine generations of your clan! Hand over the entire Jiuxianmen!" Wei Zhongxian cursed viciously.

It was not until Wei Zhongxian made a gesture that the two men took action.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

After the man and woman finished their greetings, they stood up and bowed to the two of them.

Zhu Youjian could see that these two people were arrogant and naturally unwilling to come.

Judging from the current situation, they are indeed from Taoism and know nothing about human relationships and etiquette.

"Are you a cultivator? Are you from the Nine Immortal Sect?"

Lin Yan also spoke up: "Yes, my name is Lin Yan, and this is my junior brother, Lin Yi!"

Zhu Youjian's attention was once again focused on the two swords.

if it is possible,

Zhu Tan hopes that he can return to the world of immortal cultivation and live a carefree life.

He began to have wild thoughts.

It seems that saving the world is not the only way.

If he could transform into the Lord of Heaven like Han Li, it would be possible for him to fight against these alien races.

Lin Yi's words brought Zhu Tan back to his senses:

"I heard that His Majesty is going to gather cultivators, so my master asked us two to assist His Majesty!"

"That's right! Your master is indeed a wise man! With your help, my training speed will definitely be faster!"

Zhu Youjian hesitated for a moment and winked at Wei Zhongxian:

"Stand back! I want to talk to you alone."

After Wei Zhongxian left, Zhu Youjian looked at Lin Yan and Lin Yi, both of whom looked very cautious. They didn't know where to put their hands. Soon, both of them put their hands on the hilts of the swords.

"You're welcome! Let's just call each other friends!"

"Thousands of years have passed since we met. A lot has changed between you and me!"

Zhu Youjian picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip slowly:
"Please enjoy!"

The two of them remained motionless, holding their swords! They were all wondering if the emperor had lost his mind to say such a thing. "We have been through so many hardships, and finally we are reunited!"

Nonsense!

The two looked at each other.

Zhu Youjian looked at Zhu Youjian, and the two Taoists also looked at them.

Lin Yan and Lin Yi both had cold sweat on their foreheads.

Zhu Youjian knew very well what these people wanted to do.

This is what happened to them.

Both of these people have a purpose.

They came to assassinate me, but were afraid of exposing their identities.

The two guys just now said they were from Huashan.

It would take at least seven or eight days to get from Huashan to the capital. These people arrived not long after Zhu Youjian's edict was issued.

This is a big problem.

"Your Majesty, can't you practice?" Lin Yan said coldly.

"Why?" Zhu Youjian shook his head.

Lin Yi continued, "Your Majesty, you are a great emperor, but you don't want to guard your great country and come here to practice. You are simply joking!"

Zhu Youjian's puzzled expression became even more intense, and he casually put down the teacup in his hand:

"Why can't I be an emperor?"

"The emperors of the immortal world are indeed all incompetent!"

"I told you, the emperors of the immortal world are all stupid!"

"Aren't all the emperors of previous dynasties incompetent?"

"Does it mean that all the immortal cultivators in the past dynasties were incompetent? Am I also an incompetent? How did you know that?"

"You still have the nerve to say that you are not a tyrant?"

"I'm not some tyrant!"

"You are the real tyrant!"

"Okay, I'll be a confused emperor!"

Zhu Youjian drank another small cup, and this time he really went all out.

"You are a foolish ruler, and we are the modern-day justice! Take it!"

The two men revealed their cards at the same time, and the swords in their hands tightened slightly, with the tips of the swords already against Zhu Youjian's throat.

Wonderful, wonderful!
The long sword was already on Zhu Youjian's neck. Zhu Youjian turned around and looked at him:
"Why do you want to kill me?"

"You are crazy!"

"I am not a tyrant. I am a tyrant because I have no other choice. I want to be the ruler of the world, but the facts do not allow it. Why don't you get rid of Wei Zhongxian? It is simply treason!"

"Before Wei Zhongxian, I will kill you!"

This sentence is wrong.

Zhu Youjian picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then put the teacup on the table.

"Have I ever done anything evil?"

"No!" Chen Zhao shook his head.

"Has he done anything evil?"

"Yes!" Chen Xiaobei nodded.

"Do you hate it?"

"Hate!" He spat out two words.

"Do you hate it?"

"No hatred!" Su Yiyu said with a faint smile.

"Why didn't you point it at him, but at me instead?"

"You are kind, no, very kind, and easy to be killed!"

……

Isn't it because of your kindness?

Then he could continue, should a kind person be pointed at with a knife?
But he is not a good guy either.

Zhu Youjian blinked. What's the meaning of this sentence? Can the people of Jiuxian Mountain just kill the emperor? Do you think you can solve the problem by killing a little eunuch?
"What do you mean?"

"You don't know martial arts, and you are powerless! Wei Zhongxian is surrounded by secret guards everywhere, you can't get close to him at all!"

Ok?
Is this true? Is there another person from underworld beside Wei Zhongxian?
If Lin Yi hadn't told him, he would have known nothing about it.

"If that's the case, then my choice was correct."

Zhu Youjian said softly. It was not wrong to be cautious back then, but if he rashly went against Wei Zhongxian, I'm afraid...

"What are you talking about?" Lin Yi felt more and more that something was wrong with the emperor.

Talking nonsense, acting crazy, not normal at all.

"I..." Zhu Youjian opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

"Shut up!" "Okay, I'm going to kill you."

"No!" Zhu Youjian snorted coldly, "How can a man sit and wait for death! Even if I die, I must die with dignity!"

As he spoke, he gently took off the sword hanging around his neck.

He stood up and took the sword he had prepared long ago from the bookshelf.

"Sword!" he shouted.

Zhu Youjian said this domineeringly, but he did not have the ability to control the sword with his Qi, so he had to pull out the knife with his bare hands.

Lin Yan snorted coldly and looked at Zhu Youjian with a hint of disdain.

If you had called for someone to protect His Majesty, you might have had a chance to survive. Do you still want to fight us to the death? Aren’t you, a weak emperor, going too far? "

It has to be said that Zhu Youjian was indeed a ruthless character, but Zhu Yuanzhang was notoriously cruel and ruthless, and Zhu Youjian had just broken through to the first level of Qi training, but he was able to fight with him.

Zhu Youjian rushed forward without saying a word, holding his long sword. After a few slashes from Lin Yan, the long sword in Zhu Youjian's hand fell to the ground.

Two knives were placed on Zhu Youjian's neck.

But just when Lin Yan was about to take action...

Zhu Youjian babbled on and on:

"Is it too late?"

"Shut up!" he yelled.

Just when Lin Yan was about to attack again...

Zhu Youjian said: "Excuse me for being frank, but I am not a foolish emperor. Do you think a foolish emperor would let you do whatever you want?"

While Lin Yi was still hesitating, a murderous intent flashed in Lin Yan's eyes!
Just as Lin Yi drew his knife, Zhu Youjian shouted, "Shen Lian, why are you still standing there!"

Both of them were startled because Shen Lian had already rushed out, waving the Embroidered Spring Sword in his hand and slashing towards them.

Zhu Youjian took this opportunity to retreat.

Although Shen Lian is not a cultivator, his swordsmanship and physical fitness are very good, and he can fight them on equal terms with martial arts alone.

This was all planned by Zhu Youjian. He had already warned that there would be a bloody disaster in three days, so how could he not have a backup plan?
Zhu Youjian had instructed Shen Lian some days ago to follow him day and night to protect his safety.

Too dangerous!

Zhu Youjian was about to leave when suddenly, an immortal figure dropped from the sky and flew towards him like a meteorite.

Such strength has probably reached the level of a sword master.

Is this going to put him to death?
That's a dead end.

The flying sword flashed by in an instant, and Zhu Youjian was caught by him.

Before he could react, he soared into the sky at a speed faster than a rocket.

"Hey, come on, old man! I can't handle flying at this speed."

Zhu Youjian closed his eyes and let out a shrill scream!

After a long time when no one made a move, she opened her eyes and saw the man standing on the sword with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty? Don't worry! I am Ye Qianshao, the founder of the Nine Immortal Sect. I came here this time to resolve this misunderstanding and accept you as my disciple. What do you think?"

"Ye Qianshao, who are you?"

Isn't this just——

Zhu Youjian still looked bewildered, while Ye Qianshao stroked his long beard:

"Although Ye Qianshao's talent is not high, he has practiced for more than 500 years. I hope Your Highness will do me the honor of becoming my disciple!"

Zhu Youjian thought of Ye Qianshao, a cultivator recorded in the history books of the Ming Dynasty and the only cultivator who was clearly recorded as having become an immortal.

"You want me to be your disciple, why would your two disciples want to kill me?"

Zhu Youjian was completely confused. (End of this chapter)
