Zhutian: My skills are not serious

"Erlang!"

Li Ru screamed and ran out of the hall. She came forward to help her only son up and asked with concern: "Erlang, who... who beat you up like this?"

Xu Qian'an, You Ji, who was washing clothes in the middle courtyard, and Li Miaozhen, the master and servant who had just entered, heard the cry and hurried to the front yard to check.

"You... it's you..."

Xu Xinnian raised his trembling hand and pointed at Chu Pingsheng.

"It's you!"

Xu Lingyue said, "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? Master has been staying at home today and was about to go out to meet Princess Huaiqing. How could he hurt you?"

"You are not allowed to call this bald ass master."

Xu Xinnian said in hatred: "You killed Mr. Li. Half a hundred scholars in Yunlu Academy were killed or injured. It was you... it was all because of you... if it wasn't for you... how could I... how could I be expelled from the academy..."

He roared at Xu Qian'an again: "From now on, you are not allowed to call yourself his brother-in-law in front of outsiders."

Everyone understood that Xu Qian'an was the master of opening lights and the elder brother-in-law in front of outsiders, and the court believed it. Xu Lingyue and Li Ru did not come forward to clarify, and Xu Pingzhi was also unwilling to give up the benefits brought by the bully. Only Xu Xinnian denied it. Is it useful? Of course it was useless, because the last time the son of Anyuan Hou led people to besiege Xu's house, those Confucian scholars did not dare to come here to cause trouble, so they took their anger out on Xu Xinnian, resulting in the scene before us.

"Open the door, I wish that I will be irreconcilable with you in the new year!"

Chu Pingsheng curled his lips: "I'm sick."

Li Ru also knocked him on the head: "Erlang, have you been beaten stupid? The students of the academy hurt you so much, and you didn't ask him to help you vent your anger, but you said such words?"

Xu Xinnian said: "He killed my teacher, destroyed my academy, and threatened to destroy my Confucian heritage... You want me to beg him?"

Su Su couldn't help but interrupt, "If Confucianism is destroyed, you can't live, right? Taoist Jinlian doesn't practice Confucianism, but he still has great merits. The master doesn't practice Confucianism, but he still travels around Yunzhou. Although Xu Yinluo has poetic talent, he doesn't have Confucianism. When he beheaded the King of Zhenbei and avenged the 300,000 people in the northern border, and spoke up for justice, where were those Confucian officials in the court?"

Xu Xinnian was speechless after her question. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said with a leaky mouth: "Only by reading the articles of sages and military strategies can one understand the truth, correct people's hearts, govern the country and help the world, and help the emperor and the people."

Chu Pingsheng said: "Xu Qian'an, give him a copy of the elementary school student code of conduct and Sun Tzu's Art of War in your mind, and then stick socialist values ​​and various propaganda slogans on his forehead."

Elementary school student?
Socialist values?

Li Ru, Xu Lingyue and the others were confused, but Xu Qian'an's face changed drastically: "Where did you get this?"

"What did you say to Li Miaozhen just now?"

"That dream? You...you actually snooped into my memory."

Chu Pingsheng snapped his fingers again.

Snapped.

huh, huh, huh...

There was a sound of rushing air, and then someone blocked the sun, and the sky and the earth quickly became dark.

"This is...Brother Diao?"

Xu Qian'an was stunned, thinking that the ugly eagle that saved him was indeed raised by a monk.

You Ji's expression changed. She had seen the big eagle on Candao before. At that time, its level was equivalent to that of a third-grade upper-level god-demon descendant. It had improved after devouring Xuan Ma, and was just one step away from third-grade perfection. Now, it felt to her that it had surpassed the third grade and advanced to the second grade.

It seems that Lord Bai Gu has been drinking soup behind the monk, and his overall strength is already enough to crush the lower second-grade warriors. General Fei has not been idle overseas either.

Just look at how they can improve their strength by devouring the flesh, blood and souls of the descendants of gods and demons. The combat power of a second-grade strongman is approximately equal to that of four or five third-grade strongmen. Since General Fei has been promoted to the second rank, King Lanling and Er Gou should be about the same. This shows that the so-called three little ones by the monk must have hunted many extraordinary descendants of gods and demons overseas.

Of course, their strength has been greatly improved, and she is not bad either. Although she does not have the ability to devour powerful individuals of the same family to strengthen herself like the monk pet, her blood is different from that of Qingji, Yeji and other sisters. In addition to the original stealth talent, she also gains the ability to cast Taoist earth-attribute spells.

Moreover, after the fake Tianyu monk's identity was exposed and he reconciled with the Empress, she took the initiative to devote herself to him on the first night, and they became inseparable. She broke through the third rank to the third rank, and then went south from Chuzhou. The monk flirted with Mu Nanzhi during the day and slept with her at night, and they slept all the way to the capital. In the past two days, there were vague signs that she had broken through to the third rank.

So if we compare them, sleeping with him is the fastest way to increase your power, which is why Qingji was instigated by her and took the initiative to climb onto the bed and ask the monk to help consecrate it. The faster their power increases, the more they can contribute in the war to restore their country when the southern demons counterattack the Buddhist sect.

"Go, join Lord Bai Gu and destroy Yunlu College to avenge my second uncle." Chu Pingsheng ordered: "If anyone stops you, kill them without mercy."

The flying general let out a long cry into the sky, grabbed the white light rising from the atrium, and flapped his wings towards the south.

Xu Xinnian was horrified, he fell to his knees, raised his arms and opened his hands, and roared like a beast: "No... don't... dog monk..."

The monk ignored him and turned into a green rainbow and shot towards Huairenju.

Xu Lingyue didn't understand and was even more angry. She changed her usual tone and said bluntly, "Brother, have you become a fool because of studying? They beat you up like this, and Master was kind enough to help you get revenge, but you are not grateful and even call Master a dog monk. If you still don't know the difference between near and far, and can't tell the difference between relatives and strangers, I will not recognize you as my brother."

Li Ru, the mother, also looked at him coldly, suspecting that her son had a serious illness and wondering if he should ask a doctor to diagnose him.

If it weren’t for the monk’s younger brother’s rescue, the eldest nephew would have been beheaded by Wei Yuan long ago.

If it weren't for the help from his monk brother, Xu Pingzhi would never have become a "thousand households" in his entire life.

If it weren't for her monk brother's care, she and her two daughters would not be able to afford to live in a mansion and enjoy a peaceful life.

The whole family is getting better because of him, except for this son, who has been looking for trouble with the monk from beginning to end and is determined to make trouble for everyone.

"You...you...you can't tell right from wrong and even consider the thief as your own...Oh my God, why is this happening!"

"Get out, get out!"

Li Ru was furious. Who was it that couldn't tell right from wrong and regarded the enemy as a relative? Was that Confucianism thing closer than parents? More reliable than siblings?
She ignored Xu Qian'an and Li Miaozhen's advice, pushed the man out of the door, and threw the bag on the ground.

"Come back when you figure it out. If you don't, don't ever come back to this house."

After saying that, he slammed the door shut.

A neighbor happened to pass by and looked at Xu's second son with a look of confusion and pity. He was beaten into such a state and was kicked out of the house by his own mother. It was really miserable.

"Is it... a farewell? Oh, look at how he got beaten. How could Sister Ru be so cruel?"

Xu Xinnian sniffed, picked up his bag and fled. When he came to the main street and saw the people and vehicles coming and going, he was overwhelmed with sadness. He raised his hands to the sky and sighed silently. By chance, an old man who had won money from gambling all night passed by. Seeing how pitiful Xu Xinnian was, he felt his pocket and threw three coins at his feet.

"If God doesn't give me a happy New Year..."

He swallowed the rest of his words and silently picked up the silver on the ground, because the two beggars opposite were staring at the silver under their feet and walking straight towards them.

I can't go back to the college, I can't go back home either, I have no money, and these three cents of change are enough to get me through a day, right?
……

On the other side, Chu Pingsheng walked into Huairenju under the guidance of Eunuch Du.

Some craftsmen were busy repairing the courtyard and repainting it red, while the palace maids were busy inside and outside with large buckets and small basins. From time to time, they screamed, and it was unclear whether they were knocked over by their companions or frightened by the snakes, insects and animals.

It can be seen that Huaiqing has not been here for half a year, which is roughly the same time as the time he was confined to Lin'an by Concubine Chen.

"Master Kaiguang, we are here."

Eunuch Du paused, turned sideways, and reminded respectfully.

Chu Pingsheng looked up and saw Huaiqing wearing an elegant palace dress and sitting in front of the tea table in the small pavilion overlooking the lake, sipping tea with her sleeves rolled up. Her profile was steady, generous and decent, with an aristocratic demeanor.

He nodded to the eunuch accompanying him, picked up his Zen stick and walked over to the pavilion. He handed the stick in his hand to Chen Ying, sat down on the short couch opposite Huaiqing, and carefully looked at the woman who was about to marry him.

She was not shy or stage-frightened. She poured a cup of tea and pushed it over. She tilted her delicate hand slightly, made a "please have some" gesture, raised her head, and looked at him with a smile.

Chu Pingsheng picked up the thin teacup and took a sip. It still tasted the same as before, this was the Jinshan Yinzhen yellow tea that grew from a 500-year-old tree in Jiulongpo. This was the yellow tea they drank when they first met.

"This is the new tribute tea from Jinshan County this year."

“Not as good as last year’s old tea.”

Huaiqing looked at the light yellow and translucent tea soup and said, "I heard that there was a lot of rain in Zhangzhou, where Jinshan County is located, this spring, so the new tea is bound to taste bland."

Chu Pingsheng smiled faintly: "You sent Chen Ying to Xu's house to invite me here, not to taste this year's new tea, right?"

Huaiqing said, "It's about Yunlu Academy."

"Zhao Shou asked you to act as a peacemaker?"

He was not surprised that the topic of this date was about Yunlu Academy. Anyone who had some knowledge of the political situation in Dafeng knew that Huaiqing was very close to Zhao Shou. Yunlu Academy could be said to be a staunch supporter of the eldest princess. This was also the reason why the public response was mediocre after he shouted in the south of the city that he wanted to destroy Confucianism.

After that, the news that the emperor had arranged marriages for his two daughters spread in the palace. Would a man who was about to become Princess Huaiqing's husband harm the interests of his wife? This was totally unreasonable.

Huaiqing shook her head, denying Zhao Shou's speculation that he had asked her to plead for mercy.

"That means you are willing to mediate."

"good."

Huai Qing said, "As far as I know, Zhao Shou attacked you that day because he was invited by my father to the palace to discuss matters. He happened to be there and didn't know the situation. He wanted to force you to stop fighting out of kindness, not because he regarded you as an enemy."

"The Emperor asked him to come to the palace to discuss something? What was he discussing? Was it to deal with me?"

Chu Pingsheng curled his lips and disagreed.

"Father...I just asked Dean Zhao to come to the palace to discuss matters. It doesn't necessarily mean to make things difficult for you."

"You found a monk from the Heaven Realm and revealed the truth that I was a fake Heaven Realm King Kong. He has been deceived for a long time and doesn't have to worry about Buddhism, so he naturally wants to find a way to deal with me and take revenge. It's such a simple logic. I don't believe that Zhao Shou lacked foresight. He knew what was being discussed and went there happily, and even intervened in my affairs. You said that he had never been hostile to me, Huaiqing, do you believe this yourself?"

"There are millions of scholars in the world, and 90% of them are Confucianists. Do you really want to kill them?"

"Back then, Confucianism led the way in destroying Buddhism, and the only branch of the Heavenly Realm left in Dafeng was the Qinglong Temple. Now that I am destroying Confucianism, nine out of ten things are predestined."

"Dafeng governs the country with Confucianism. If Confucian scholars are purged, the foundation will inevitably be shaken."

"Just change the state religion. The Heaven Realm can rule the country with Buddhism and still maintain stability. The three northeastern countries believe in witch gods and have not collapsed. Xu Xinnian is conservative and stubborn. Are you as ignorant as him?"

"Consecration..."

"Do you want to persuade me again? Number One."

Huaiqing suddenly looked up and pressed her hand on the tea table. She had always presented herself as a man in the Tiandi Club, but she didn't know that her identity would be discovered by him in the end.

"Qinglong Temple... Henghui..."

Her fingers slowly tightened and clenched into fists. Although her expression did not change, her eyes were burning. Chu Pingsheng looked at her with a smile: "Did Wei Yuan tell you?"

Huai Qing said, "I was confused at first. Since you are not a monk from the Heavenly Realm, why did you use the name of a monk from the Heavenly Realm to cause trouble in the capital? It was not until Duke Wei told me your true identity that I realized that everything you did was to take revenge on my father. Since you like to trade with others, why don't I keep this a secret and let you do what you want? You give up on dealing with Yunlu Academy."

"Haha, you are really a good daughter of Yuan Jing. Between your father and a servant, you chose the latter."

"..."

"Since you know that I am Henghui, you should know the whole story of the tragedy. That is to say, Yuan Jing was able to kill Prince Yu and his daughter to eliminate dissidents, to sell out his two daughters in order to secure his throne, and to be shameless in order to be promoted to the second rank. Then you can also sit back and watch him fall into disgrace and be driven off the throne by me."

Huaiqing said nothing and let him mock him: "I just ask you, do you want to do this deal or not?"

"Threatening me?" Chu Pingsheng sneered, "It's too late to do it or not."

Huaiqing was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

A playful breeze blew in through the window, lifting her beautiful hair and making it flutter like a fairy, not like a beauty on earth.

"By now, Yunlu Academy should have been razed to the ground."

As if to confirm what he said, Eunuch Du hurried into the small pavilion and whispered a few words to Huaiqing. During the conversation, he glanced at Chu Pingsheng once or twice, his face full of fear.

"You...you've gone too far."

Huaiqing couldn't stand it anymore and slammed the table and stood up.

Chu Pingsheng's expression was normal, and he slowly stood up: "You may have forgotten your identity. You are just one of my many women. If you beg me humbly, I may give you some face and let go of some insignificant guys, but now... you have no chance."

"Heng Hui..."

Huaiqing could hardly suppress his anger, and Chen Ying followed suit, picking up his sword. Unexpectedly, the Zen stick placed behind him flew up on its own and pierced into his back. Flames surged, and in an instant, the fourth-rank master was burned to ashes.

"Henghui's identity is still wrong." Chu Pingsheng killed her confidant like killing chickens and geese: "Why do you think the supervisor watched me break the rules of Dafeng to this extent? Not to mention punishing Yuan Jing, even if I killed all of your Ji family, he would not frown."

Snapped.

Start with a Zen stick.

He pestled the pestle and walked slowly outside.

"If you don't believe me, you can try. The moment the name Henghui appears on the street, it will be the beginning of the extermination of your entire family. I have always been more patient with women, but only with those who are simple-minded, well-behaved and lovely. With your behavior today, even if you marry into my family, you will still be a slave or concubine to me. A woman without talent... is not a virtue."

Da da da……

he's gone.

Eunuch Du, who witnessed this scene outside the pavilion, knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.

Huaiqing fell onto the couch, his face stiff and his eyes dull.

Chu Pingsheng came out of Huairenju and first looked at Yunlu Academy in the southeast direction, then he let out a light exclamation and turned to look at the imperial city. Dark clouds gathered in the sky, a vortex slowly formed, and lightning and thunder were as dense as tides. In his perception, the earth's energy was extremely violent and was heading towards a figure that rushed out of the imperial city and flew north.

Is Luo Yuheng going to survive the landmine disaster...

Without hesitation, he turned to Jingbei to protect his most powerful wife.

Although outsiders cannot bear the thunder tribulation on someone's behalf, they can still provide support from the side.

……

That night.

The night falls and the lights are bright.

The news that the Dafeng Kingdom had gained another first-rank strongman and the national teacher Luo Yuheng was promoted to a land immortal did not bring much change to the lives of the civilians in the East City. Instead, the Yunlu Academy was razed to the ground, and the bodies of the rebellious Confucian scholars were transported to the north of the city in five carts by the military. The news that the parents of several of them went to Xu's house to make trouble and were slaughtered by the monk's pet made people panic.

By now everyone understands that when it comes to the consecration ceremony, the imperial court is unreliable. The royal law and the army are nothing in front of them. Even the Chief Astronomical Observatory, who is known to be invincible in Dafeng, is indifferent and does not care about the life and death of Confucianism at all.

Facts have proved that the monk’s threat to destroy Confucianism was not just a casual remark. He really wanted to kill all the Confucian scholars in the world, just like the anti-Buddhist movement led by Confucianism in the past.

Scholars and officials who fear death have already made it a rule not to wear Confucian robes, not to wear Confucian caps, not to worship sages, and not to speak eloquently, for fear of angering the monks and becoming their victims.

There are those who are not afraid of death, but according to You Ji, who ordered the Bone Dragon to kill people, it does not matter if half of the population of Dafeng is wiped out. As long as they recuperate for a period of 60 years, the population will naturally recover. The pain of institutional reform is inevitable. They will either die as victims of the beneficiary class or the sect, or adapt to the changing situation and compromise with the strong.

Some officials privately cursed Zhao Shou as an idiot, saying that he had not meddled in other people's business that day, which would not have led to the tense situation today. Some officials cursed the person who revealed that the monk was not Tianyu King Kong to have a bad death. The role-playing game was forced to end, and the monk changed the game. The consequences of this game were difficult for Dafeng to bear.

Erlang of the Xu family, who was the main force behind the demise of Yunlu Academy, wandered around the city like a ghost. He unknowingly came to the old house in the East City. Seeing that the door was not locked, he ran over and knocked on it.

bang bang bang...

bang bang bang...

"Who's knocking?"

A pleasant female voice was heard from inside, accompanied by the sound of tapping footsteps. The gate opened, and a woman's face with a silver flower ornament on her forehead peeked out from the gap in the gate. She carefully looked at the young man who was covered in scars and in a destitute and distressed state.

"This... used to be my home."

The beauty pouted, looking unhappy: "It's my home now."

Xu Xinnian realized that she disliked him, and he immediately became disheartened. He stepped back and staggered down the stairs.

"Pitiful."

The beauty seemed to be reluctant and called him to stop.

"wait."

After saying this, he reached into his bosom, took out his purse, and took out half of it, about five taels of silver.

She hesitated for a moment, did not dare to approach to give alms, and threw it far away at the bottom of the stairs.

"Take this money and see the doctor."

Xu Xinnian opened his mouth and wanted to say thank you, but the other party closed the door neatly.

He picked up the silver on the ground in the dim light. When he stood up, he heard a conversation coming from the yard, so he leaned forward and listened at the door.

"Who?"

"He was a beggar. I felt sorry for him, so I gave him some money to send him away."

"Wouldn't it be better to let Zhu'er do this?"

"Didn't you send her back to her parents' home to visit her parents? What if I didn't open the door and left her to those four mummified puppets? What if they scared her to death?"

"That's true. Anyway, I sent Zhu'er away... and you remained silent. What were you expecting?"

"Tsk, who would expect a lewd monk like you?"

"If you weren't looking forward to it, why did you wash yourself so clean and smell so good when I went to visit the Fairy Queen?"

"Go find your Fairy Consort."

"Are you jealous of your best friend? Can you find a time to get together?"

"Ridiculous! Can you be more serious?"

"I am serious, okay? I am ordered to help you remove the spiritual essence. This is official business."

"If you really took the Holy Order seriously, you wouldn't have destroyed Yunlu College today."

"Hey, you actually knew that?"

"Everyone in the entire East City is talking about this matter. It's hard not to know about it. It's against the will of heaven. Aren't you afraid of being punished by heaven?"

"God's punishment? Haha, how dare it punish me for something that God tacitly approves? I can't kill the Gu God, and all the people in Kyushu have turned into Gu. It wants me to work for it, so shouldn't it give me some benefits? If you don't have a goal in life, what's the difference between you and salted fish? What's more, those Confucian scholars volunteered to sacrifice their lives for their religion, so of course I have to help them."

"Life goal? What is your goal? To gather all the beauties in the world into your harem?"

"After listening to your remarks, well, this... is not impossible."

"you!"

"One moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold coins, and ten moments of spring night is worth ten thousand gold coins. My lovely princess, how many ten thousand gold coins are you worth tonight?"

"..."

"..."

"Hmm... go inside..."

"Isn't it nice to be in the yard? The sky is our blanket, the ground is our mat, and the stars are watching us as we sleep."

"I am angry."

"Okay, it's up to you."

"..."

Accompanied by the beautiful woman's panting, the footsteps coming from the yard gradually faded away.

Xu Xinnian, who was eavesdropping at the door, felt as if the sky was falling.

The bastard monk Kaiguang actually used their Xu family's old house to support his mistress.

He hugged the princess on his left, the fairy concubine on his right, and was still thinking about his little sister.

Shameless! The most shameless!
"Who cares about your dirty money?"

He raised and lowered the five taels of silver in his hand several times, until he heard a few dogs barking in the alley. He finally chose to put the silver in his pocket and left in a huff. (End of this chapter)
