......
After a long talk with Old Song, Song Xuan finally had a clear understanding of the world he lived in.
As for things like the Heavenly Abyss and the Three Thousand Worlds, he is a master now and it is not his business to worry about them. These are still too far away from him.
Now, he just wants to take advantage of the public funds in his position as commander.
The next morning, Song Xuan came to the Xuanyiwei Inspection Office and boasted to Zhao Dezhu for a while, then was called to the headquarters by Commander Ye Tian's confidant.
At the commander's residence, Ye Tian did not handle official business, but stood at the door waiting early.
Seeing Song Xuan coming, he greeted him with a smile.
"I heard you're getting married?"
"Uncle Ye is very well-informed!"
Compared with the last time he met Ye Tian, Song Xuan was very relaxed this time. The increase in strength brought more than just changes in power.
Ye Tian smiled and said, "Get ready and go meet the Emperor with me later."
"Although the Emperor has no right to interfere with the inheritance of my position as the commander of the Xuanyi Guard, I still have to save face."
Song Xuan nodded, "There's nothing much to prepare, let's go now!"
Ye Tian nodded with a smile, and the two walked out of the yamen and got directly into a sedan chair. Then Song Xuan dispersed his spiritual sense to block out the sound.
"Uncle Ye has a good relationship with the Emperor?"
Ye Tian nodded, his expression somewhat complicated. "A friendship that grew up together when we were young is like the friendship you and Lu Xiaoliu had when you went to the brothels together. Do you think it's good?"
"No wonder!"
Song Xuan immediately understood. No wonder the emperor kept trying to get his hands on something, but Ye Tian could still endure it until now.
For someone like Ye Tian, the position of commander was just a way to satisfy his addiction to power. When the emperor wanted to divide power, he turned a blind eye and acquiesced. The years of friendship made him unable to bear to do it.
Song Xuan could understand. If it were him and Lu Xiaoliu, if it was just because of some power dispute, he would probably find it difficult to kill this childhood friend.
Song Xuan smiled and said, "In fact, if this world was just an ordinary world, without martial arts and without those high-ranking masters and great masters, the emperor's methods would still be remarkable.
He is very good at playing politics, at least, he is good at understanding human nature."
Ye Tian smiled bitterly, "He really has a good grasp of my personality, so since I can't bear to do it, I can only step down and let someone else take over.
Whatever you want to do next, just do it according to your own ideas. If the conflict is really irreconcilable, then you can only change the emperor.
Of course, if the emperor is understanding, I still hope you can spare his life."
........
Let’s talk about this book.
These two chapters are mainly to improve the settings and lay the groundwork for the subsequent storylines.
The first million words of this book are about comprehensive martial arts. After a million words, the protagonist's cultivation reaches the top of the world, and the story of the heavens is bound to begin.
Gather the power of one world, declare war on the outside world, use the resources of other worlds to expand the world of martial arts and enhance the world's status.
There is no way around this. The plot of Zongwu has its limitations. If you want to write it longer, you can only add a plot of battles in all the heavens and worlds.
Fellow Taoists who do not like the Zhutian plot can leave after the million-word Zongwu plot is over.
thanks for your support.
Chapter 329: Emperor: I will grant you a marriage, how about it?
royal palace.
Song Xuan just glanced casually at the armored soldiers stationed in layers and didn't pay any attention to them.
As for the several master-level experts hiding in the dark, Song Xuan lingered on them for a while longer, looking at them across the palace.
After all, it is the core of the dynasty's power. Those who are qualified to be in charge of the palace guards are all very powerful. In his perception, even if they are not as strong as the Five Supremes, they are similar in momentum to the white-clothed man from the East China Sea back then.
As for the Grand Master, he did not sense it.
Beings at that level possessed a martial arts domain that could isolate themselves from all auras. Unless the other party revealed it on their own initiative, even if they stood in front of you, you would only think they were an ordinary person.
"Master Ye, you are here!"
Eunuch Cao, the chief eunuch of the Imperial Household Department, seemed to have been waiting for a long time. When he saw Ye Tian and Song Xuan, his originally expressionless face immediately turned into a full smile, and he greeted them with a smile.
Ye Tian hummed, "Come and see the emperor, His Majesty, are you free?"
"Please wait a moment. I will go and report this to you."
Soon, Eunuch Cao returned and said, "Your Majesty, please come in, gentlemen."
The imperial study was not very large, but it was elegant and luxurious. Song Xuan did not care about these things, but immediately focused his attention on the emperor whom he had heard of for a long time but had never seen.
The emperor was tall but a little thin, with white hair on his temples and the wrinkles between his eyebrows could not be concealed at all.
Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, the emperor's noble aura could make people breathless, but Song Xuan didn't feel anything at all, because he determined the emperor's current state at the first moment.
Kidney deficiency!
Extreme kidney deficiency!
Song Xuan also expressed his understanding of this.
With three thousand beauties in the harem, how many men would not suffer from kidney deficiency?
Besides, the emperor's cultivation level is only the most ordinary innate realm, and it is estimated that he relied on elixirs to reach that level. His martial arts aptitude should be very average, so it is normal that his body cannot bear it.
"Your Majesty!" Ye Tian bowed politely to the emperor.
Song Xuan followed suit and bowed as well.
The emperor's expression paused, but he did not show any special reaction. Instead, he put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "I heard that Song Xuan just returned to the capital today, Ye Tian, you are so anxious to bring him to see me.
What, is the handover of the commander completed?"
"Actually, there's nothing much to hand over. With Song Xuan's ability, he'll be able to familiarize himself quickly."
The emperor frowned slightly, "Are you so eager to resign?"
Ye Tian nodded and said: "Your Majesty should also know that I don't really care about the position of commander. What I really yearn for is to become a grandmaster.
After I step down from this position, I will go into seclusion and cultivate arduously. I will not come out again until I reach the level of Grandmaster."
"You want to break through to Grandmaster?"
The emperor pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly. "Very well, you have always had a talent for martial arts. Since you have this plan, I cannot stop you. If you need anything, please let me know."
Given our relationship, even if I don't have it here, I will find a way to get it for you!"
The emperor felt a little excited.
He knew that Ye Tian had some opinions about him because of the Xuanyiwei incident.
But even though he had opinions, the emperor knew Ye Tian's personality very well, and he cared a lot about the childhood friendship between them.
If Ye Tian really breaks through to the Grand Master level in the future, relying on the friendship between the two, he is confident that he can ask Ye Tian to help him.
Life is like a play and it all depends on your acting skills. As long as you play the emotional card well, Ye Tian may be your most important trump card in the future.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. However, I have already made all the necessary preparations and there is nothing else I need."
As he spoke, he clasped his fists again and bowed, a rare gesture. "Your Majesty, my presence here today completes the transition between the old and new commanders. From now on, matters concerning the Xuanyi Guard can be discussed between Your Majesty and Song Xuan.
"I'm leaving now!"
He looked at the emperor with a complicated expression, wanting to remind His Majesty that it would be better to restrain some of his methods.
I know your methods, I just care about our old friendship.
But there is no relationship between you and Song Xuan. If you really make him angry, he will really dare to deal with you!
His lips parted slightly, but he didn't say anything more in the end.
I have already resigned, and saying too much will only annoy people.
After Ye Tian left, Eunuch Cao tactfully followed him out. Only the emperor and Ye Tian were left in the imperial study.
"Come, Song Xuan, sit down!" The emperor greeted him.
Song Xuan didn't hesitate and simply pulled over a chair and sat down.
The emperor's eyelids twitched when he saw this scene.
You young fool, I was just being polite, but you are so rude.
Although he was unhappy in his heart, his expression did not change. Instead, he had a warm smile on his face, with the look of an elder looking at a younger person, "I have heard your name many times.
Your 1 billion taels of silver really helped me out of my immediate need."
In the past few years, the emperor has lived a very comfortable life. With money in his hands, he is really confident. Many things that used to be a hassle for him are no longer a problem after he spent a large sum of money.
Maintaining rule requires force, but governing a country requires money.
Without silver, even if you are the emperor, neither the people nor the ministers will take you seriously.
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. Sharing the emperor's worries is the duty of the Black Guards."
Song Xuan's soul had already calculated that given the emperor's kidney deficiency, he had at most half a year to live. His life essence had been overdrawn to the limit and could no longer be replenished by elixirs.
Since that was the case, he didn't bother to talk nonsense and answered in a very official manner.
The emperor was slightly stunned. This kid is a bit stubborn.
I'm expressing my goodwill to you, and you just respond in such a lukewarm way?
Do you really think that once you sit in the position of commander, you will have all the power and don't have to worry about anything?
Xuanyiwei, no matter how powerful they are, in name, they are the emperor's personal army. I hold the title of righteousness and am your immediate superior. Is this how you treat your superior?
The emperor smiled and said, "You are not young anymore. I heard that you are not married yet?"
Song Xuan nodded.
"My little princess, Princess Miaoling, is only 28 years old, at the prime of her life. If you are interested, I will grant her to you in marriage. How do you think?"
"I appreciate your Majesty's kindness, but I am already engaged and will be married soon."
The emperor said indifferently, "It's just an engagement, and we haven't gotten married yet, so just cancel it.
If you are in trouble, my dear minister, I will directly issue an edict to grant you the marriage, and I will bear the bad reputation for you. How do you think?
I think, can the woman you are engaged to be with be compared to my most beloved little princess? "
Song Xuan shook his head, "This one, really can't be compared!"
Chapter 330 Song Xuan: Did I give you face?
"What did you say?"
The emperor could hardly believe his ears.
This kid actually said that his most beloved little princess is not as good as his fiancée?
As soon as he entered the door, he could tell that this kid was just a young and inexperienced person.
He was mentally prepared, but he didn't expect that this guy was more than just a fool, he was a complete idiot!
Ye Tian, what kind of successor are you looking for? You actually brought such a crude warrior to me. How can I direct the work of the Xuanyi Guards in the future?
"Your Majesty is old and may have poor hearing. I will say it again."
Song Xuan's voice rose a few notches. "I say, your little princess is no match for my fiancée. Your Majesty, do you understand?"
"Did you hear that?"
"Did you hear that?"
Important things should be said three times. Song Xuan shouted three times to the emperor without any hesitation, and he immediately felt relieved.
Damn it, I gave you 1 billion taels of silver back then, and you actually wanted to kill me. Now you want me to give you face? No way!
The emperor was numb and sat in his chair in a daze.
He has lived for fifty years, and today he feels that his three views have been shattered.
He is the Son of Heaven, the nominal supreme leader of the dynasty. When has he ever been attacked so directly by someone?
