Liaozhai Great Sage

But Li Xiuyuan believes that if he wants to completely end the Shinto today, let alone Dongyue, the gods and Buddhas in the sky will not agree.

Because it is very simple, there must be something original about the appearance of the divine way in the world. The reason why Li Xiuyuan has come to this day is not because he wants to sever the divine way, but because he implements the idea of ​​co-governance by man and god.

Shinto is governed by gods, while humanity is governed by humans.

To ensure order between God and man.

If he said that he wanted to kill all the ghosts and gods in the world, then first of all he would have to kill his wife to prove the Tao. Why would he force others to do it if he couldn't do it himself?

Dongyue asked about the deadline, which actually represented the compromise of the world's ghosts and gods to Li Xiuyuan, and also proved that he has achieved enough success to this day, and has the qualifications and ability to determine the future direction of the world.

"If your divine way has ruled the human world for thousands of years, then my way should also last for thousands of years." Li Xiuyuan opened his eyes suddenly, with a golden light shining in his eyes and said, "It's 1000 years."

In the end, he chose to agree to Dongyue Shenjun's request.

Not only for the world, but also for myself.

He can't afford to fight this battle, his luck has already come, he can't continue to fight, he can only go so far.

He also didn't want to see Third Sister's blood spattered here, and her thousand-year-old practice was gone in one day.

"Okay, just a thousand years. I will wait for you for a thousand years. This millennium is the maximum time I can bear." Dongyue Shenjun said lightly, and he agreed to Li Xiuyuan's time limit.

After finishing speaking, he also flipped his palm, and with a wave of his hand, half of the golden mountain flew towards Li Xiuyuan.

"Please accept the remaining half of my divine power."

One word is cause and effect.

At their level, there is no such thing as a breach of promise, and heaven and earth will testify to it. If they violate it, they are disobeying the will of heaven and will suffer evil retribution.

"Can we only fight for 1000 years for this world?" Li Xiuyuan smiled wryly.

He believes that if he is not assassinated today, he may be able to fight for 2000 years, or even 3000 years.

It seems that God's will allowed him to only attain enlightenment for 1000 years. Just like Dongyue, the divine way lasted for a thousand years. When he met himself, he was knocked out of the mundane world once, and the divine way declined.

This is luck.

Immortal immortals all have the idea of ​​obliteration. On the day when Huahong dissipates, Li Xiuyuan also knows that even if he becomes enlightened, he will not be able to live forever.

Just like things, there is prosperity and decline, and no one can escape the cycle of karma.

Chapter 788 The Nine Clans

At this moment, in the imperial city of the Song Dynasty, in the Zichen Palace.

"What? Li Xiuyuan was assassinated on the way, and he was seriously injured and dying. His life and death are uncertain? Han Shizhong led [-] cavalry to the imperial city?"

Zhao Jing, who had just sat on the dragon chair for ten days, heard the six doors, Yan Kuan, Master Yan reported that he jumped up from the dragon chair in shock, his face changed instantly, like a frightened child, Not an iota of imperial gesture.

Yan Kuan saluted and said: "Report to the official, it is indeed so."

"How could it be like this, how could it be like this..."

After all, Zhao Jing had experienced few things. Hearing this matter, his face was already pale, and he was a little lost.

"On the way Li Xiuyuan was assassinated, Han Shizhong must have suspected that I ordered the assassin. According to the plan, the [-] cavalry under Li Xiuyuan's command were to defend the capital for me, in case someone disobeyed me and became emperor. Now Han Shizhong is dissatisfied with me and feels suspicious. This... the [-] iron cavalry may break into the imperial city at any time."

His lips moved slightly, and he looked out of the palace with a look of horror.

This is Li Xiuyuan's backhand, in order to prevent himself from being killed, so the transfer of [-] elite riders to the capital is not without the intention of preventing the court.

Yan Kuan immediately said in a deep voice: "The government, the top priority should be to find out the murderer who assassinated Mr. Li, punish him severely, and give an explanation to Han Shizhong outside the capital, and at the same time, the government should issue an order to appease, in case of a mutiny in the capital... Mr. Li is the commander of the army, if there is an accident with him, it may lead to a catastrophe, so please hurry up and solve the case as quickly as possible."

"Yes, yes, yes, what Aiqing said is very true, please Master Yang quickly draw up an order, and entrust this case to Aiqing, I hope that the six doors can solve the case as quickly as possible this time." Zhao Jing said in a panic .

Master Yang on the side squinted his eyes and said: "Just solving the case is not enough to convince the group of arrogant soldiers under Master Li. Another imperial decree is needed to convince the hearts of the people. I suggest that once the murderer is tracked down, he should be charged with treason." Discipline... the nine clans shall be punished."

Killing the Nine Clans?

Yan Kuan's eyelids twitched.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty to the present, the imperial decree to punish the nine clans has never been issued, and it seems that such a decree has been issued by the previous dynasty.

Because the Nine Clans were too implicated, with the imperial decree, at least hundreds, even thousands of people were killed, regardless of age.

"Officials, the crime of punishing the nine clans is really too great. The crime of assassinating the governor of a state is really not up to the level of punishing the nine clans. I suggest that they should be punished appropriately." Yan Kuan said.

Master Yang said indifferently: "If you don't punish the nine clans of murderers, you won't be able to reflect the indignation and sadness of the officials, and it will be difficult to quell the anger of Han Shizhong's [-] soldiers and horses outside the city. This is not an indiscriminate killing by the officials. , if this imperial decree is not promulgated, if something goes wrong, I don’t know if Mr. Yan can bear it.”

"This, this..." Yan Kuan hesitated, not knowing how to respond.

The other officials were all looking at their noses with their eyes, their noses at their hearts, motionless like a wooden man.

The assassination of a sage in the world, such a major event is enough to shake the Three Realms, but now that the ancestor is being punished, and he and others are in danger, how can there be more things about a sage in the world.

Finally, Zhao Jing gritted his teeth and said, "I, I decree that once the murderer's identity is found out, his nine clans will be punished immediately, and officials from all over the country will be executed immediately without waiting until after the autumn. Yan Aiqing, I will leave this matter to you. The Cui Wei under his command is very good, and I asked Xu Bao to bring an imperial army to go there, and we must find out the murderer within three days, and give Lord Li justice."

"Minister, obey the decree." After the imperial decree, Yan Kuan had nothing to say, and immediately bowed his hands and accepted the order.

At this moment, the Great Song Kingdom was working surprisingly fast.

Less than half an hour after the imperial decree left the capital, two groups of people went straight to the capital.

Cui Wei led the imperial decree and came to the front of the army outside the city. When he saw the black cavalry outside the city, he couldn't help but gasped.

The banners are like clouds, the swords and guns are like forests, the horses are like dragons, and the murderous intent is rolling. Twenty thousand cavalry straddle the front, covering even the earth. Even the gods will be terrified when they see such an army. I'm afraid this army doesn't exist.

He hastily shouted loudly; "Your Majesty has a decree. Your Majesty is deeply saddened and angry that Mr. Li was assassinated on his way. He specially ordered General Xu to investigate the murderer. At the same time, His Majesty was worried about Lord Li's safety, so he specially sent ten imperial physicians and thirty boxes of various precious medicinal materials..."

"The official decree? Cui Wei, we are also old friends. Now that the young master is assassinated, this matter will definitely not be let go." Han Shizhong came with a group of soldiers on horseback. He looked a little haggard and said in a cold voice.

"Han Meng, you have to believe that this matter was not done by His Majesty. I will find out what happened today. Don't worry, I will give you a satisfactory answer within three days. So please don't be arrogant. If Lord Li is here, I don’t want to see you fight again.” Cui Wei shouted: “And Lord Li is a lucky man with his own appearance, so he will be fine.”

"In addition, you should think about it carefully. If His Majesty really did it, wouldn't the crime of punishing the Nine Clans be punished by His Majesty? I'm going to investigate the case now. If you are worried, you can send someone to follow me. It's not going to be selfish."

Han Shizhong's eyes moved slightly, and he shouted: "Mao Wu, please lead a team to follow Cui Wei to see if there is something tricky in it, the young master's injury can't be in vain, if it was really done by the court, I will definitely We must seek justice for the young master."

"Yes."

Mao Wu clasped his fists in response, and immediately rushed out with a group of cavalry.

"Han Meng, don't be arrogant." Cui Wei warned again, and then led the six doors, General Yaksha Xu Bao, and a team of forbidden troops to gallop outside the capital.

"Actually, we've already spotted the murderer, but the young master said he wouldn't let her be killed so he let her go." Mao Wu said in a deep voice on the road: "If my predictions are correct, she should be from a certain county, and she will never be too far away from the capital." Far."

"Really? That's good, thank you very much." Cui Wei clasped his hands together and said.
