From Joy of Life, the Tian Gang is reversed

Chapter 78 Borrowing People (Part )

The sunset is just right in the early summer evening.

Li Chengqian sat in a wheelchair, looking at the setting sun on the roof of the East Palace, which seemed to be covered with a layer of gauze. The light was no longer scorching, but soft and warm. The afterglow sprinkled on the eaves and brackets of the palace, giving the entire palace a layer of gold, and Li Chengqian seemed to be immersed in the afterglow of the sunset.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, and a red light appeared in his eyes.

"This is evolution. The real purpose of the Superman Experience Card isn't to let me use his powers, but to let me experience the body of a Kryptonian and feel the direction of their evolution. In other words, the Roulette of the Universe believes that the direction of human evolution in this world is similar to that of Kryptonians, and that there's potential for reference, so they're letting me experience it?"

The doubt flashed through his mind. This was just his guess and needed to be verified. After all, the reason he could absorb the sun's energy to strengthen himself and evolve himself like this was not because of the Superman Experience Card, but because of the Taiyin Refining Technique.

He doesn't have a Kryptonian-like physique now, but is evolving in that direction.

Evolution is a long process. With his current physical condition, he can only use the Taiyin Body Refining Technique at dusk to absorb the energy from the sun to strengthen his body little by little. It is unknown when he will truly complete the evolution!
Thinking of the Taiyin Body Refining Technique, his thoughts naturally flew to his second soul, and his face began to turn gray.

"How could I be struck by lightning?"

In that strange world, Li Chengqian's second soul had turned into a ghost, occupying the corpse of the ghost baby and killing the person who refined the ghost baby. He rushed out of the confined secret place of cultivation with endless resentment, wanting to start a killing spree. However, he found that the ghost baby that was refined was not just him, but ten people in total. They were the Nine-Child Mother Demon, and the ghost baby he occupied was only one of the nine ghost babies.

Fortunately, he was a ghost himself, and the Nine-Child Mother Demon had not really succeeded in refining it. He used the ghost domain to slaughter all the participants and devoured the resentment of several other ghost babies and ghost mothers. His spiritual power increased greatly, and before he had the chance to go out and harm the world, he provoked a heavenly calamity.

Under the majestic might of heaven, even the Nine-son Mother Heavenly Demon's ability to freely travel through space was powerless. However, he was not an ordinary Nine-son Mother Heavenly Demon, he was a ghost!

After successfully surviving the heavenly tribulation by using the ghost realm, the next step is the much-anticipated ascension.

Yes, in that world, he survived the heavenly tribulation and ascended to heaven. The magnificent ascension passage is so fascinating just thinking about it now!

Unfortunately, just as he was ascending in a trance, a purple lightning bolt struck directly from the ascension channel, smashing his ghost baby body into pieces, and his second soul also fell into a state of freeze.

In which world would one still be struck by lightning when ascending?!

This was the last thought of his second soul, and then his connection with the second soul was severed.

The last ray of sunlight sank in the west, and the sky became completely dark.

He sighed, and the wheelchair slid down along the special passage on the eaves. This was specially built by the Ministry of Works to make it easier for him to sit in a wheelchair. It is said that when Emperor Qing found out, he smashed several more cups.

But will he care?

"Your Highness."

As soon as he came down from the rooftop, he saw a man in a Confucian robe walking towards him. It was Li Mingchuan, the Secretary of the Eastern Palace. He said respectfully, "Your Highness, His Majesty has sent someone to deliver the latest memorials and documents, and has also added twenty maids and thirty eunuchs to the Eastern Palace."

"Huh?" Li Chengqian was a little surprised, and then he understood why Li Mingchuan came to find him.

He brought Li Mingchuan to the Eastern Palace and appointed him as the Chancellor on a whim.

But unexpectedly, Li Mingchuan was a troll in the Censorate, but he was also a good hand at doing things. Since he took the position of Chancellor, he no longer had to worry about many things that he used to worry about. After becoming familiar with the affairs of the Eastern Palace, Li Mingchuan handled everything in an orderly manner.

The most interesting thing is that although this guy is not very familiar with Li Chengqian, he is extremely smart. In many things, Li Chengqian only needs to start, and he will know what Li Chengqian means and how to carry it out. This makes Li Chengqian feel very relaxed, and he finally understands how Zhuge Liang died.

Therefore, he gradually let go of the affairs of the Eastern Palace and handed them over to Li Mingchuan. Now Li Mingchuan was in a high position and had great power in the Eastern Palace. He knew that Li Chengqian did not like to be disturbed, so he did not like to get close to his superiors like other officials. Instead, he concentrated on doing his own things and would not come to see Li Chengqian unless it was something important.

But something was a little strange today, and he was a little unsure, so he came here.

"Memorials? Documents? They're even sending people to me. What a mess?" Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows, feeling somewhat puzzled. When he was about to go and see what the old man was up to, he seemed to sense something and turned around to see. He saw the chief eunuch in the palace, Hong Sixiang, appearing at the door of the hall in a bright red robe with a smile on his face.

"Hong Siyang greets His Highness."

"Eunuch Hong?" Li Chengqian and Hong Siyang were not very familiar with each other. Although he was Emperor Qing's confidant, he spent more time with the Empress Dowager and was also the chief eunuch in the palace. The two had no intersection. What did he want to do by coming to the East Palace in person today?
With a silent breeze, Mao Qiwu appeared behind Li Chengqian.

Hong Siyang's expression changed slightly, but he still maintained a smile. "Your Highness, these memorials and materials sent here are all from the past few years requesting the appointment of a Crown Princess. There are also some materials about the eligible ladies of Daqing. Previously, because the Crown Prince was young, they were all withheld by His Majesty. In recent years, the Crown Prince has grown older, and His Majesty said that it is time."

"As for these eunuchs and palace maids, it was His Majesty who said that His Highness has grown up and needs more manpower, so the regulations of the Eastern Palace should be expanded."

Li Chengqian blinked, "For something like this, there's no need to involve Eunuch Hong, right?"

"Your Highness thinks highly of me." Hong Siyang smiled, but her eyes fell on Mao Qiwu, as if she sensed the faint fighting spirit rising from him. "I came here because I have something else I would like to ask for your permission, Your Highness."

"whats the matter?"

"Borrow someone."

"Who?"

"Him!" Hong Siyang pointed at Mao Qiwu and said, "Something happened in Hongzhou. Dean Chen is in poor health and can't leave Beijing. So, I'd like to ask Mao Qiwu to keep an eye on the people in the Supervisory Council and help out when necessary."

"Oh?" Li Chengqian laughed. "Is that so, Qi Wu, then you should go with Eunuch Hong."

"Your Highness, I..."

"Go ahead. It's not a good idea to stay stuck in Kyoto all the time. Last time, Qin Yuan went to Jiangnan and blew it for several months. You should go to Hongzhou and see if you can blew it for a few months too. Since the emperor has mentioned you, there must be a reason for it."

"I obey your command." Mao Qiwu nodded.

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness. Someone from the Supervisory Office will come to contact you. I will take my leave now." Eunuch Hong said.

"Wait." Li Chengqian stopped Hong Sixiang who was about to turn around and said, "Take those memorials and documents back."

"Your Highness, you..."

"Please ask Eunuch Hong to tell my father that I will be in seclusion for the next year. We can discuss the Crown Princess's matter in two years."

"Retreat again?" Eunuch Hong cursed in his heart. This prince is now giving up and has no excuses!
