Peerless Tang Sect's Splitting Claws Tearing the Sky
Chapter 178 Night Visit
"His Majesty did have the idea of marrying Qing'er before. Although it was settled after this incident, but also because of this, more people will focus on her in the future. In order for her to be able to be like an ordinary person in the future, Live like a human being.
So I need you to do me a favor and dispel some people's ideas, also to give His Majesty a step forward. "
Ye Ming looked at the teacher with a hopeful face, and he vaguely guessed what the teacher was talking about.
"You want me and Qing'er to..."
"Yes and no, there is no need to explain this matter to anyone. Just let others think so, and then I will mention it to His Majesty in a subtle way, and he will understand."
"That's fine with me."
Ye Ming breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. What the teacher just said really made his heart lift into his throat.
But if it's just a shield...that's fine, that's fine.
"You brat, what's your expression? Do you think your master's daughter is so unbearable?" Seeing this, Mu Tao suddenly laughed and cursed.
Ye Ming hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, teacher, you have misunderstood me. I have always treated Qing'er as my sister, and I have never thought of anything wrong!"
"Really?" The middle-aged man suddenly narrowed his eyes, as if he wanted to see through Ye Ming.
"It's true, I can swear to God!" The young man raised his right hand, feeling confident.
"..."
"Forget it, it's just a joke. You have to be busy in the next few days, so go and rest early."
Mu Tao waved his hand and returned to his usual calmness.
"Then disciple, please retire first..."
After the young man left, the old man waiting outside the door entered the hall.
"City Lord, the guards have just come to report that Li Shuai is bringing gifts and wants to visit you in person. Prime Minister Zhang is also coming soon."
"Oh? Where are they now?"
"They are all waiting outside the door. Because you, the city lord, gave the order before, the guards did not let them in rashly."
"Go and ask for Prime Minister Zhang."
"Then Shuai Li..."
A rare gloom flashed in Mu Tao's eyes, "Just let him wait. Do you really think that the little tricks he did before were perfect? Just let me see his 'sincerity'."
"Yes."
……
Outside the door, the old prime minister who heard the order glanced proudly at the old general who was also waiting, and then walked into the house while the other party was blowing his beard and staring.
If Ye Ming came here, he would see that outside the princess's mansion, which was still desolate and cold during the day, was already densely packed with people, including many important officials and generals, many of whom had not yet had time to take off their court uniforms.
Of course, the two people with the highest status are the two at the front, the prime minister and the marshal, who are both civil and military.
After seeing the Prime Minister enter the palace, many frustrated people regained their hope, and the crowd even tended to gather in larger numbers.
You must know that the people here at this time are not ordinary people. For such a grand occasion, half of the court may have moved here.
But worth it!
After all, titled Douluo and ninth-level soul master, these two names alone are enough to make people crazy.
At the same time, many people also noticed a person kneeling in the corner for some reason. The person looked a bit young, although his face was dull and he didn't look very smart.
Could it be that he wants to worship Chief Mu as his teacher?
Many 'smart people' thought of this and immediately knelt down too. Then they were noticed by more people, and it spread among the crowd for a while...
……
When meeting the old prime minister, Mu Tao had changed into home clothes and looked elegant and easy-going.
But the old prime minister will not be fooled by this simple appearance. The scenes in the palace today are still vivid in his mind.
Therefore, as soon as they meet each other, they bend down and hold hands, showing full etiquette.
"I have met Your Majesty."
"Master Zhang, you must not do this. Why should you and I do this?"
Mutao hurriedly held on, with a heartbroken look on his face.
"Today is different from the past, but Your Majesty is still willing to call me Master Zhang. I must still remember the meager friendship in the past, which is really a blessing for me." The old prime minister stroked his beard with a look of relief on his face.
"If it hadn't been for Master Zhang's help, how could I have gained a foothold in the empire? Mu Tao has never forgotten it for more than ten years!"
"So, then I will call myself an old man in front of Your Majesty?"
"It's impossible."
After a while of greetings, Mu Tao invited the old man to take a seat.
But the old man sighed, and then he talked about the real purpose of this trip.
"Actually, this late-night visit by me was also under His Majesty's instructions. Chief Mu, now that you have broken through to the title of Douluo and become a ninth-level soul master, you will naturally be able to enter the Palace of the Protector. But besides that, His Majesty has always had something in his heart. Dao owes.
Princess Xueyuan, after all, she is His Majesty’s sister. When the late Emperor was still there, your Majesty was powerless even though he could not bear it. When he took charge of the government, you were already married.
When you first heard about the princess’s bad news, Your Majesty was also grieved for a long time..."
"That's enough. If the Prime Minister has something to say, you might as well say it directly." Mu Tao interrupted the old man expressionlessly.
"This……"
The old prime minister wiped the cold sweat on his temples with his sleeve. Seeing Mutao's appearance, he realized that he had said the wrong thing. He could only curse "widower" in his heart, but he still said respectfully:
"Your Majesty would like me to ask, what kind of compensation does Your Majesty want? If you stay in the imperial capital, you are willing to continue to serve as the president of the Royal Academy.
By the way, His Majesty also fully agrees with the strategy of soul guidance to strengthen the country that His Majesty proposed earlier. He even wants to change the name of the academy to the Royal Soul Guidance Academy. Starting from the academy, let the students practice soul guidance tools and provide talents for the empire. What do you think, Your Majesty? "
After the old man said this, he glanced above. Mu Tao had only served as the dean in name only, so there was no need to explain the meaning. But this time is different. His Majesty is obviously prepared to give up the entire Royal Academy, which is not without a lot of blood.
Mu Tao's expression softened a lot, but he refused and said, "Please tell me, Prime Minister, that Mutao would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness. But all I want is for the official to be reinstated. Zhenhun City is where my deceased wife is, and I really can't let her go."
As for the dean of the college, I'm afraid I have to find someone else. "
When he heard that Mutao was leaving Lingdou City, the old prime minister hurriedly said: "You must not do it at this time!"
Ok?
Seeing Mu Tao narrowing his eyes, the old leader immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and said in a tactful tone: "Ahem... What I mean is that the current imperial capital is in urgent need of a strong man like Mian Mian to take charge. You also know that Sun Mianxia died. There is a missing piece in the empire's defenses.
Besides, there are many students in the college who are interested in soul guidance devices. It would be overkill for someone like you to go to the frontier to serve as a guard..."
But Mu Tao said calmly: "It's not about overkill, the Prime Minister doesn't know. Although I can make ninth-level soul tools, I'm really not very good at teaching in this way. Just like my only disciple, who has been worshiping me since he was a child. I am a teacher, but I don’t teach as much as Shrek Academy.
Now that he is approaching the level of Soul Emperor, he has only barely reached the fifth level of soul master. He is really afraid of making people laugh if he tells it. "
"Huh? Your Majesty, you still have disciples?" The old prime minister was stunned. He realized that he actually knew very little about Mu Tao.
"There is indeed a disciple named Ye Ming. Speaking of which, Qing'er persuaded me to accept him. I can't help it. As my daughter grows older, she becomes more and more attracted to outsiders." Mu Tao shook his head and laughed at himself.
"That kid stayed with Qing'er when he was young. Later, he felt that he didn't learn much from me, so he ran to Shrek Academy. Anyway, he was quite successful. He entered the inner courtyard and became one of the Shrek Seven Monsters. It will be time to participate in the Soul Master Competition in a while...
By the way, Shrek's dean, Yan Shaozhe, has been a great help to our master and apprentice. I promised to donate the ninth-level soul tool shown today to Shrek Academy. Master Zhang, what do you think? "
After the initial sluggishness, the old prime minister also reacted quickly. He heard a lot of useful information from Mu Tao's words, and even the ninth-level soul guide that his Majesty had told him to keep the previous morning!
This widower is actually planning to give it away to outsiders! !
Thinking of this, his beard almost jumped, but when he saw those eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, for some reason, his confidence suddenly became much weaker.
"Isn't this a little too expensive?"
……
At the end of the conversation, the old prime minister breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that the content of today's conversation was too ups and downs, and he did not feel such pressure even when facing His Majesty.
Mu Tao was indeed different from the past. Fortunately, the widower finally expressed his willingness to make another ninth-level soul tool and give it to the royal family, so there was room for pulling.
No, I have to go to the palace as soon as possible, tell His Majesty the information I know verbatim, and discuss a countermeasure as soon as possible!
Thinking of the old prime minister stepping out of the house, he was dumbfounded when he saw the scene in front of him.
"You, you, how do you look like this!!"
The old prime minister raised his hand and rebuked angrily, only to see everyone in front of him kneel down. Only a few red-clothed officials stood stubbornly because of their dignity, but the young people around them who were obviously juniors also knelt down. He fell to his knees and even bit his head on the ground to appear sincere.
As for the veteran general and soldier, he has long since disappeared, and there is a young man in rich uniform kneeling at the same place...
