Chapter 90 – Scattering Fortune Child! (4.8k)
“Everyone from the Yao clan is a liar!”
Yao Qing was worried that when the male lead went to the Immortal Cultivation Conference, he was being counted by the Yao clan’s people, Linglong had just left in the front foot, she went to find the male lead in the back foot, and then shook out all the various garbage she knew that the Yao clan had done over the years.
In the end, Yao Qing looked at the male lead and said bitterly: ”If the Yao family comes to you, no matter what they say, don’t believe any of it! Especially pay attention to those Yao Clan’s children who look naive, those people are all liars, if you believe them, you will definitely end up getting screwed over!”
The male lead closed his eyes and concentrated on sitting cross-legged on the futon to recite the sutra.
Hearing Yao Qing’s words, he didn’t even raise his eyelids.
Yao Qing didn’t know whether he had listened to them or not, and wanted to say a few more words, but was worried that saying too much would annoy him, and in the end, she could only leave resentfully.
Yao Qing left, the male lead opened his eyes, his eyes were calm, without a ripple.
So what if Yao was even more calculating?
Anyway, he had already decided to return to seclusion.
After the male lead knew that his cultivation of the Dragon God Technique had been exposed, he stopped hiding it, and during this period of time, he collected quite a few rumors about the Zhao clan.
What the male lead focused on was the Zhao clan’s bloodline.
He already knew about the death robberies of the Zhao clan’s children.
Originally, the male lead wanted to find a place to hide and repair his body and mind, which had recently been ravaged.
Now that he knew that he would end up miserable in the future, he was even less inclined to toss and turn.
“Ancestor, I’ve carefully considered it.”
The male master retracted his gaze, glanced down at the ring in his hand, and said in a low tone, “I appreciate your good intentions, but I’m already tired of the feuds and grudges of the Immortal Cultivation World, and now I just want to find a place that no one knows about, work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and plow and recite scriptures every day, far away from the Immortal Cultivation World.”
The old monk rang out in the male lead’s mind, “Where there are people, there are grudges, where there are people, there is right and wrong, the place you are talking about doesn’t even exist. If you want to live a peaceful life, then you can only attach yourself to a powerful force. Old line in the Luo Han Temple is also considered to say, you will send the old line back to the Luo Han Temple, if you are not willing to change to the Luo Han Temple door, the old line can let the abbot to allocate a piece of land to you, you can still live the days you wish.”
The male master was silent.
Neither agreed nor objected.
Only after a long time did he slowly speak, “Ancestor, disciple will help you return to the Luo Han Temple, but he will not throw himself under the Luo Han Temple’s door, nor will he stay in the Luo Han Temple, disciple only wants to find a place where no one is to live out his life.”
The male lead had suffered a lot during this time, but he had also grown a lot.
If it was in the past, he would have definitely agreed to the old monk’s suggestion.
But now he didn’t think so.
Since the Western Mountain Monastery had secretly warned against him long ago, there was no way that he had not been unprepared.
If he dared to plunge into the Luohan Temple, I’m afraid his death is not far away!
Seeing that he couldn’t persuade the male lead, the old monk could only sigh helplessly.
He was really optimistic about the male lead.
The male lead was really deeply rooted in the Buddha cultivation path.
If the male lead could be ferried into the Luohan Temple, not only would he be able to strike a blow against the rival Xishan Temple, but he would also be able to obtain a Buddhist son with amazing enlightenment.
Two birds with one stone!
“That woman can be annoying!”
The old monk’s heart was also stuffy when he thought of Su Shallow.
He had lived for so long, and had never seen a woman, such as Su Shanshan, who acted and behaved in a way that was frightening!
The old monk could actually understand the male lead’s thoughts.
If it was him who encountered that Su Shanshan, he might have already seen through all the red dust as well.
“It’s just!”
The old monk finally said, “Since your mind is made up, I won’t advise you anymore. If you change your mind one day, you are welcome to come to Luohan Temple at any time. As long as the old monk is still at Luohan Temple for one day, the doors of Luohan Temple will always be open for you.”
With a flat expression, the male master said thank you, then closed his eyes and continued to recite the sutra.
At the same time.
After Linglong left the Yao family head’s small courtyard, she returned to the Crown Prince’s Mansion to find Zhao Yi to resume her orders.
“Su Everlasting is indeed good.”
Zhao Yi listened to Linglong’s report and nodded slightly, “Huang Ying and the others checked Su Changyuan and the Su Clan to make sure that they were both good people before Su Shanshan was enthroned as the Sixth Prince’s Consort.”
After saying that, he shook his head, “It’s a pity that we know people’s faces but not their hearts, I didn’t expect Su Shallow to be such a bold and arrogant person.”
Zhao Yi paused for a moment and said to Huang Ying, “Send an order to the Patriarch’s Office that Su Changyuan and the others have nothing to do with the matter of Su Shanshan colluding with the Chaotian Sect, so all of them should be pardoned.”
Linglong didn’t have an official position, it was fine for her to go to the death cell for Zhao Yi to probe the situation, but to deal with the Sect’s People’s Office wasn’t qualified.
This kind of official dealings on a formal level could only be done by a female official like Huang Ying who had a formal official position.
After finishing, Zhao Yi paused for a moment and then added: “Su Changyuan’s failure to teach her daughter is penalized by one year’s salary! Su’s ineffective management of the back house, punish her to go to the palace to receive admonishment from the Empress.”
When Linglong heard this, she glanced at Zhao Yi with some surprise.
Zhao Yi was not ordinary towards Su Changyuan.
What Su Changyuan had committed was a capital offense of executing nine clans, but Zhao Yi not only pardoned his sins, even the punishment was a board raised high and dropped gently.
For Su Changyuan, forfeiting his salary for a year is not painful at all, and it won’t even hurt his skin.
As for Su’s visit to the palace to listen to the Empress’ admonition, this was more like a favor than a punishment.
Don’t look at Su’s being punished in the palace, but how many can be taught by the Empress herself in the huge Shengjing City?
Instead of entering the palace to be punished, Su was more like going to the Empress to be gilded.
If nothing else, Su would soon be rehired by Zhao Yi.
It might not just be Su Changyuan, the entire Su family might follow the chickens!
Thinking of this, Linglong’s face suddenly changed slightly.
It was only until this moment that she then realized that Zhao Yi had long known that Su Shanshan’s collusion with the Chaotian Sect had nothing to do with Su Changyuan.
Zhao Yi letting her go on the death row trip was actually a test of whether she was loyal or not.
If the answer sheet she delivered was contrary to Zhao Yi’s will.
Cold sweat immediately broke out on Linglong’s back.
Although Linglong was smart, her experience in the official world was still too little, and her political sense of smell was also very slow, she should have thought that Zhao Yi letting her go to the death row to explore was actually already a pardon for the Su clan!
Luckily, she didn’t have any other ideas, or else her little life might not be saved today.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger!
Seeing Linglong’s ugly face, Zhao Yi asked with concern: “Linglong, are you not feeling well?”
Linglong immediately returned to her senses and hurriedly said, “Reporting back to Your Highness, I just caught some wind chill on the way back, there’s no major problem.”
Zhao Yi nodded.
Whether it was this world or Zhao Yi’s previous life, people with power and influence could indeed enjoy more and more convenient medical resources.
Linglong was the rising star of the Yao Clan, growing up with all sorts of spiritual treasures and elixirs as her meals, it wasn’t easy to get sick.
Zhao Yi paused for a moment and said, “From now on, you are the chief historian of the Eastern Palace, and you will be fully responsible for all political matters of the Eastern Palace.”
Linglong’s eyes lit up and she hurriedly bowed down, “Thank you, Your Highness!”
The Chief Historian was equivalent to the Crown Prince’s staff, although there was no specific rank, but the real power was very large, and he could participate in almost all the affairs of the Crown Prince’s Palace, and was the Crown Prince’s absolute beloved.
Linglong knew that she had just arrived, and Zhao Yi definitely couldn’t trust her completely, but this was a good start.
What Linglong lacked the most right now was a platform to show her abilities.
As long as Zhao Yi was willing to use her!
Huang Ying was overjoyed when she heard that Zhao Yi had finally appointed the Chief Historian.
The Prince’s residence is getting bigger and bigger with more and more affairs, and Huang Ying is tossed around by all sorts of trivial matters every day.
Now that Linglong is here, she just takes the opportunity to get away.
“Long Shi Linglong, I’ll take you to familiarize yourself with the Crown Prince’s Mansion.” Huang Ying was very enthusiastic.
Linglong was relieved to see Huang Ying like this.
Originally, she was worried that Huang Ying was afraid of her seizing power, but she didn’t expect Huang Ying to be so generous, it was her who had taken the gentleman’s heart for a small man’s heart.
Linglong hurriedly thanked her, “Thank you, Lord Huang Ying.”
Huang Ying waved her hand and said repeatedly, “No trouble, no trouble at all.”
After saying that, she cordially pulled Linglong and led her towards the back mountain, saying as she walked, “Long Shi Linglong, I will first take you to meet the auspicious creatures in our mansion, those spirit beasts are all very docile, you just have to be careful not to provoke the black bar, it is the leader of all the spirit beasts.”
Black Stripe?
Linglong remembered the black dog that almost blackmailed her at the door before, she couldn’t help but ask, “Lord Huang Ying, where do all the spirit beasts in the mansion come from?”
Huang Ying said, “West Mountain, they all come from West Mountain!”
“Indeed it is!”
Linglong had vaguely guessed that it might be this black dog when she heard the name Black Stripe before.
Because the name “Black Stripe” was too strange.
Normal people would not come up with this kind of name!
Linglong was more and more convinced that the hero must have a secret.
If Black Stripe was a ferocious beast of enormous size and the male lead fell off a cliff and hit it, Linglong could barely accept it.
But now Black Stripe was a dog!
Such a small dog, I’m afraid that from the top of the mountain, it wasn’t even as big as an ant.
And yet the hero just smashed it.
There is another doubt.
Although the black bar was large in size, it was a dog after all.
It couldn’t possibly lie down and let the male lead smash it.
How did the male lead manage to smash the dog into unconsciousness while he himself was intact?
Linglong had more and more doubts in her mind.
She decided to send someone to investigate the male lead after the affairs of the Crown Prince’s residence were straightened out.
Especially focusing on investigating the male lead’s purpose of deliberately appearing beside Zhao Yi!
The male lead just didn’t know what Linglong was thinking, otherwise he could directly cry in anger.
What do you mean he intentionally appeared by Zhao Yi’s side?
It was clearly Zhao Yi’s ghost that was still there.
The hero didn’t want to get involved with Zhao Yi at all.
But no matter where he hid, Zhao Yi would appear in the same place.
And most importantly.
The male lead would have bad luck every time he met Zhao Yi.
He’s too bitter.
That’s why the male lead wants to find a place where no one is hiding.
If Zhao Yi doesn’t die, he’ll never come out again!
Linglong had just left in front of her, when Myriad Sound Realist suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
She looked at the direction Linglong left and asked Zhao Yi, “You took that woman in?”
Zhao Yi asked suspiciously, “How did you know I was going to take her?”
Miaoyin Makoto casually said, “I heard it from General Zuo Luo, she said that you healed Linglong’s wounds when you were in the secret realm, that’s when I guessed that you wanted to use her.”
Zhao Yi nodded, “There are too many chores in the Crown Prince’s residence, and I’m not like Father who has a centralized center to help him with all sorts of troubles, so I’ll just have to find myself a good use for a long history. Linglong is Yao’s female phoenix, I’ve heard of her long ago, and since I’ve come across her, I definitely want to pull her back as a laborer.”
Miaoyin Makoto nodded.
She withdrew her gaze and looked at Zhao Yi, “You didn’t go to today’s morning court, and regarding the topic of pardoning the remaining members of the Chaotian Sect, those people from the Central Hub and the ministers of the various ministries have been bickering like crazy. Today might still be just the beginning, I see that they mean to go and invite some famous people to come to the court to argue the scriptures, what are you going to do?”
Zhao Yi’s face was unchanged: “These weren’t guessed long ago. Those so-called celebrities are just the sounding boards of those families and gentry, they are not worth mentioning. How are the preparations on your side?”
Miao Yin Zhen Zhen said, “Everyone is already in place, just waiting for the Empress to give the order, then we can start cleaning up.”
Zhao Yi frowned slightly, “Empress Mother is going to do it herself? Those people are just a bunch of rabble, there’s no need to alarm the Empress Mother.”
Miaoyin Zhenren shook her head, “The Empress said that His Highness the Crown Prince would be ascending the throne in the future, and that his hands shouldn’t be stained with the blood of his subjects. The Empress is different, she said that in the future she will go to Xuan Zhen Guan to cultivate, killing a few people is nothing, the big deal is to help them recite the Sutra of the Past Life a few more times then.”
Zhao Yi sighed and lamented, “Mother Empress is still as kind-hearted as ever.”
Miaoyin Zhenran: “…”
She opened her mouth, feeling that what she was about to say was disrespectful to the elders, and closed it again.
Zhao Yi acted as if he didn’t see her expression.
After a moment of contemplation, Zhao Yi said, “I’m going to the Immortal Cultivation Conference in a few days, what’s the arrangement on the side of the Zong Renfu, won’t they let anyone come to imbue me yet?”
Zhao Yi raised an eyebrow as he spoke, “I feel like I’ve been lucky in the last few days, maybe I’ll break the barrier in one go.”
Hearing this, Miaoyin Zhenren reached out and posted on Zhao Yi’s forehead, puzzled, “Not flustered, why did you start talking nonsense?”
Zhao Yi slapped her hand away and said in dissatisfaction, “You’re just jealous of me!”
He clenched his fists, feeling the seemingly infinite power contained within his body, and said smugly, “If I break the Xuan Pass, I might break the Ninth Order Saint King Realm in a day!”
The Myriad Sound Realist was not stubborn with him this time.
She nodded her head and said, “Your physique exceeds all of our previous perceptions, if you really break the Xuan Pass, you might even be able to break through the legendary tenth rank!”
After saying this, Realizer Myriad Voice looked at Zhao Yi and shook her head again, “It’s just that if you want to break through the barrier, I’m afraid that it’ll be harder than climbing up to the heavens without an unexpected chance!”
“The journey of ten thousand miles begins with a single step.”
Zhao Yi listened to Realist Myriad Voice’s words, and instead of being discouraged, he was eager to try.
He said confidently, “No matter how far the road ahead is, as long as we move forward step by step, I’m sure we’ll be able to reach the end one day!”
Miaoyin Zhenren nodded and then said, “The Patriarchate has already arranged for someone to come over, counting the time it should be almost here.”
Zhao Yi asked curiously, “Who’s coming?”
Miaoyin Zhenran shook her head, “I don’t know either, the Zongrenfu side just said that they sent the most suitable person, they didn’t say who exactly.”
As soon as her words fell, a “da da da da da da” sound could be heard from the distance.
Myriad Sound Realist first froze, then her face changed greatly, “Prince Zhi!”
Previously, during the battle at the Great River Camp, Miaoyin Zhenran had seen the terror of Prince Zhi.
Once Prince Wisdom’s Dragon Domain was opened, it was useless even if the six senses and five senses were closed.
Myriad Sound Realist’s face shifted as his eyes constantly looked in the direction of the courtyard wall.
As long as Prince of Wisdom opened the Dragon Domain, she would absolutely flee at the first opportunity.
As for Zhao Yi, he wasn’t afraid of the Dragon Domain and didn’t have any cultivation, so he wouldn’t involve Prince Zhi’s killing intent, instead, he was the safest.
If it was the Grand Prince and the Second Prince here, they would probably be doomed.
Although they weren’t afraid of the Dragon Domain either, their close bloodline would have triggered Prince Zhi’s killing chance.
With Prince Zhi’s strength, he would be able to slap the two to death with a single slap!
This was also the reason why the First and Second Emperors had been avoiding the palace from afar after the old emperor went mad.
The old emperor’s Dragon Domain couldn’t kill them, but a slap could!
“No need to be afraid.”
Zhao Yi glanced at Prince Zhi, who was riding backwards on a donkey, and suddenly said, “Prince Zhi is drunk?”
Drunk?
The Myriad Sound Realist froze for a moment.
She looked up and saw Prince Zhi sitting on the back of a donkey and napping.
Because he was drunk, his madness was suppressed, and his entire person looked surprisingly clear.
“This is okay?” The Myriad Sound Realist froze for a moment.
Immediately afterward, she understood what the Patriarchate meant.
Prince Zhi’s wisdom would allow him to suppress his crazy thoughts for the time being, and his extensive insights would be able to find out what was going on with Zhao Yi’s body.
Prince Wisdom was indeed the most suitable candidate!
The burro quickly came to Zhao Yi’s side.
It obviously recognized Zhao Yi, and its large tongue was licking enthusiastically at Zhao Yi’s body.
Zhao Yi looked at the large cuts on his clothes that were torn by the donkey, and immediately became furious: “Dead donkey, you belong to the dog! This precious clothes of mine is invulnerable to swords and spears, water and fire, how the hell did you bite through it for me?”
Prince Zhi heard Zhao Yi’s voice, opened his eyes with difficulty, looked at Zhao Yi, and reached out his hand, “Little Yi, I heard that you still have rouge red in your stash? Kids can’t drink, quickly take it out and give it to second uncle, second uncle will buy you ice candy gourds.”
Hearing this, Zhao Yi couldn’t care less about being angry with the donkey.
He reached out and waved his hand in front of Prince Zhi.
Zhao Yi suspected that Prince Zhi was deliberately getting drunk to blackmail him, but he just didn’t have proof!
Moreover.
You have to give a jar of Rouge Red for one initiation.
Zhao Yi suddenly felt that it was nothing even if he didn’t break the barrier for the rest of his life!
