Stunning beauty

Taixue Palace, East Campus.

Shang Huang walked in and looked at the green scene of the garden with a strange expression on his face.

It's already winter, and the vegetables in the Confucian Headquarters are still growing.

Confucian saints are really extraordinary.

"Your Majesty, please sit down."

Under the apricot tree, Kong Qiu set up the chess table and said politely.

"The courtyard of the head of Confucianism is not bad."

Emperor Shang sat down in front of the chess table, and praised with words in his words.

"Your Majesty has a great reputation, and the humble cottage is not worth mentioning."

Kong Qiu sat across the chess table and said calmly, "Please, Your Majesty."

Shang Huang looked at the empty chessboard and said calmly, "Confucianism is the first to invite."

Kong Qiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and without arguing about anything, he picked up a sunspot and landed it on the chessboard.

Shang Huang then picked up a white piece and set it aside.

It is a rule that weak chess players hold sunspots. When the great merchant emperors of all dynasties came to see Confucian leaders in Taixue Palace, they would take the initiative to choose sunspots to show their respect for Confucian sages.

Three years ago, when Emperor Shang came to Taixue Palace, he also chose Heizi.

Today, however, everything is different.

Shang Huang chose Bai Zi, showing his ambition publicly for the first time.

The meaning of the Emperor Shang is very obvious. In the territory of the Great Shang, the imperial power is above everything else, even the Confucian saints have to bow their heads.

Kong Qiu saw what Emperor Shang meant, but didn't say much.

Confucianism does not compete, at least not for a while.

In the courtyard, the two played chess quietly, and soon, on the entire chessboard, black and white twins criss-crossed, showing a killing spirit.

"The head of Confucianism has thought about who will be in charge of Confucianism after a hundred years." Shang Huang looked at the chess game on the table and asked.

"Those who are capable will get it," Confucius replied.

"The younger generation of the Confucian sect is undoubtedly the most outstanding one in Baiwangyu."

Emperor Shang said indifferently, "However, I heard that when he went to Mobei, Bai Wangyu lost a lot of lifespan and has not recovered. I am afraid it will be difficult to shoulder the heavy responsibility of Confucianism."

"Forget the words, you have your own creation."

Kong Qiu said softly, "Your Majesty, please worry about me."

"Wen Xiuru is not bad."

Shang Huang picked up a white piece again, dropped it on the chessboard, and continued, "It's just that if you are too aggressive, your prestige will always be a little bit worse. The Confucian leader, the next generation of the Confucian school, is not easy to choose."

"Not urgent."

Kong Qiu held up Heizi to block Baizi's fierce attack, and responded, "I can live for a few more years, these problems may be solved in the future."

"Confucian chief, I am worried."

The Emperor Shang raised his head and said seriously, "If the Confucian school is in chaos, the people of the great merchants will fall into the pain of war again. Therefore, the Confucian leader should give me an accurate time, so I can prepare well."

"Confucianism, no matter when it will not become the source of disaster, your Majesty can rest assured."

Kong Qiu responded, paused for a while, and continued, "As for the old man, he probably has three or five years to live."

"Three or five years?"

Hearing the words, Emperor Shang narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Then the Confucian leader should make a succession earlier, and besides"

Speaking of this, Emperor Shang changed his words and reminded, "Confucian leader, have you ever thought that the scholar from the Western Regions might come to the capital to compete for the heavenly book after your death?"

"The heavenly book, I will give it to the third son of the Li family."

Confucius replied, "At that time, he will try his best to block that scholar."

"The scholar has already broken the five realms, how can he stop it?"

The Emperor Shang sneered and said, "If the Book of Heaven is lost, the scholar will master the Book of Heaven and the Great Bright Sword at the same time. This will be a devastating disaster for Da Shang."

"He can't stop himself, and the Confucian disciples."

Kong Qiu looked at the great merchant emperor in front of him and said, "If something cannot be done, please help me, Your Majesty."

"The book from heaven can be placed in the palace."

Emperor Shang picked up a white piece, and said calmly, "The Heavenly Book is in the palace, it is absolutely safe, even if the scholar comes in person, he will definitely return without success."

After hearing what the former said, a strange look flashed in his old eyes, and he asked, "Your Majesty is so sure, the scholar can't enter the palace?"

"Sir, no jokes."

Shang Huang looked up at the Confucian sage in front of him, and said lightly, "The Confucian leader can think about it carefully. Instead of being taken away by scholars, it is better to put the Tianshu in the Dashang Palace. At least, the Tianshu stays in the Dashang. The Tianyu Palace They dare not go east easily."

"The Heavenly Book has already chosen its owner. After the old man dies, the fate of the Heavenly Book will not be decided by the old man."

Kong Qiu said softly, "At that time, if the three sons of the Li family are willing to bring the heavenly book into the palace, please ask Your Majesty to help block that scholar."

When the Emperor Shang heard this, he frowned slightly, this old man really didn't like oil and salt.

However, it is not surprising.

It would be a real surprise if the Confucian leader was willing to take the initiative to hand over the heavenly scriptures.

While the two were talking, the situation on the chessboard became more and more intense.

Baizi's offensive became more and more fierce, while Heizi was always on the defensive.

It can be seen that Heizi's defense has become more and more reluctant.

After all, it is the trend of the times and it is difficult to turn back.

Commoner Palace, the backyard.

Li Ziye kept writing and drawing with the parchment of Feixian Jue.

At this moment, a servant came quickly and saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty, your majesty has gone to Taixue Palace."

In the room, Li Ziye's expression froze when he heard the words, and said, "When did it happen?"

"Half an hour ago." The servant replied truthfully.

"Understood, let's go down." Li Ziye said calmly.

"Yes!"

The servant took the order and immediately turned and left.

In the room, Li Ziye put down the pen in his hand and looked towards the Taixue Palace.

Emperor Shang went to Taixue Palace?

strangeness.

"Brother Li, what's wrong?" Xiao Xiao asked puzzledly.

"Shang Huang, it has been a long time since he left the palace."

Li Ziye responded, looked in the direction of Taixue Palace, and said, "Confucian chief, tell him about Taiyuan and the Underworld, and ask him if he knows the whereabouts of Taiyin, and see how he responds. "

"lunar?"

In the room, Xiao Xiao asked with a puzzled face, "Who is Tai Yin?"

"A Taoist sage." Li Ziye responded casually.

The East Campus of Taixue Palace.

Hearing the voice of the Prince of Commoner, Kong Qiu dropped the white piece in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, not long ago, this old man saw Taiyuan."

"Taiyuan?"

Emperor Shang paused holding his son's hand, and after a while, he recovered, and said, "The leader of the Taoist sect, hasn't he passed away for a thousand years?"

"Leave a sigh of relief."

Kong Qiu said calmly, "Your Majesty, do you know that today's Nether Realm is full of Netherland sealed by Taoism?"

"Underworld?"

The emperor of Shang revealed a look of surprise, and replied, "There are a few sporadic mentions about the underworld in the palace collection, but I don't know what the Confucian chief said. Did Tai Yuan tell the Confucian chief himself?"

"Ah."

Kong Qiu nodded and said, "Taiyuan said, let the old man find Taiyin, saying that he is the key to this calamity."

"lunar?"

After hearing the words of the Confucian leader, Shang Huang held his son's hand and gave another meal.

Taiyin, why Taiyin?
