The original plan may not necessarily be the current plan. The Taoist priest in front of him is also a person who has been wandering in the world of mortals for hundreds of years. He has seen countless lovers who were once in love turn against each other, and he has also seen many two people who were originally in love with each other. In the end, one of them ended up miserable, so even if Ji Changli said firmly in front of him last year, the Taoist still had some doubts in his heart. After all, people's hearts are too fickle, especially now that Ji Changli is surrounded by Jiangshan With all the beauties here, why would he abandon all of this for a dead person?

Maybe after Bai Xiyu's death, he would suddenly realize that the person he bestowed to death was not that important, even without him, life would still be the same.Or maybe, it won't take long for him to forget him?

The Taoist leader doesn't understand this kind of feeling very well, he is an outsider, and he has already looked down on life and death, let alone these love affairs?

It's a pity that the emperor in front of him is already trapped in it. There is a cliff in front of him, and if he takes another step, he will be doomed, but he is willing to jump down.

Last year, Ji Changli came to Mount Shouwu before killing Bai Xiyu, and asked the Taoist priest a question, "Does the Taoist master have a way to bring the dead back to life?"

Green smoke rose from the incense burner on the desk, and there seemed to be the sound of lingling water coming from all around. The old Taoist stroked his long beard, shook the whisk in his hand, looked up at Ji Changli, and walked slowly. Di said, "Your Majesty should know that people cannot be resurrected after death."

Ji Changli lowered his head and said, "I read in a miscellaneous journal that there is a fairy method that can bring the dead back to life, so I came here to ask."

The old Taoist seemed to be ignorant of world affairs, and he said coldly: "Your Majesty also knows that it is just a miscellaneous note, and it can't be taken seriously."

Ji Changli lowered his eyebrows, and asked again after a long while: "Is there really nothing the Taoist priest can do?"

"Why is Your Majesty so obsessed with this matter?" The old Taoist looked at Ji Changli with a puzzled expression.

"The Taoist chief knows that the Yin clan sacrificed the lives of the whole clan before they were exterminated, and cast a curse."

The old Taoist frowned and said nothing.

So Ji Changli continued: "Three years have passed suddenly, and all people in the world have fallen into a sea of ​​suffering."

"The Yin family can be so cruel." The old Taoist didn't seem to expect that they could do such a thing, but since Ji Changli didn't come to him today for this matter, it should be resolved, the whisk in the old Taoist's hand Shaking it again, he asked Ji Changli, "Your Majesty seems to have a solution?"

"Yun Ji." Ji Changli only said these two words.

"The saint of the Yin clan?" The old Taoist tilted his head and thought for a while, and he seemed to have a little impression of this Yunji girl in his mind. After a while, he said: "It is rumored that the saint of the Yin clan is very With a kind heart, she can help His Majesty lift the curse, and it is also a blessing for all people."

Ji Changli raised the corners of his mouth a little, and with mockery in his eyes, he said to the old Taoist priest, "She asked me to bestow death on a person."

After hearing this, the Taoist priest frowned again, probably a little disappointed with Yun Ji, but immediately he asked Ji Changli again, "Is it impossible for Your Majesty to choose between the life and death of all the people in the world and the life and death of one person?"

Ji Changli didn't even think about it, and directly said to the priest, "I can't choose."

But after all, this sentence is just talking in front of the Taoist priest.

Ji Changli had thought about it for a long time before this. If he could only choose one between the common people in the world and Xiaobai, he would probably choose the common people in the world. After all, his and Xiaobai's lives have not yet reached It is for the sake of the whole world to be buried with them, but now that he has a way to save Xiaobai from dying, he will naturally do everything he can to do it.

The Daoist didn't expect Ji Changli to answer so resolutely. In his opinion, as an emperor, he naturally puts the country and the people first, but the one in front of him doesn't seem to think so.

He also understood that Ji Changli came to him today because he wanted to find a way to get the best of both worlds. He hoped that the common people in the world would be spared from this disaster, and he also hoped that that person would not have to die. How could it be so easy to do.

The incense burner in the incense burner was about to burn out, a few wisps of green smoke rose intermittently from the incense burner, and a few unknown birds made various strange chirping sounds outside, Ji Changli turned his head and glanced out the window Well, Xiaobai is still waiting for him at the foot of the mountain at this time, and he might be in a hurry after a while.

Seeing that Ji Changli didn't intend to change his words at all, the Taoist priest sighed, and finally had to compromise, he pursed his lips, and said: "Your Majesty is the man appointed by God, and he can indeed compete with the Dao of Heaven. Ordinary people can't do it." It may be okay for His Majesty, but..." He paused, glanced at Ji Changli, and seeing that Ji Changli had turned his head to look at him, Daoist sighed.

Then he said to him: "Your Majesty, you must know that life and death in the world are predetermined, if you want to fight against the way of heaven, you must pay the price."

"What price?" Ji Changli asked.

"Life in exchange for life." After the Taoist finished speaking, he did not wait for Ji Changli to speak, and said again, "Moreover, only Your Majesty's life can complete it."

There was no surprise on Ji Changli's face. He seemed to have expected this to happen. He nodded and replied, "Okay."

The Daoist wanted to suspect that Ji Changli's mind was filled with water, so he asked Ji Changli again, "Your Majesty, have you figured it out?"

Ji Changli didn't answer the Taoist's words, he said: "After the Shangyuan Festival next year, I hope the Taoist priest can come to the palace."

It seemed that he had already made up his mind, and the Taoist priest did not continue to persuade him, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

"Thank you, Daoist." Ji Changli bent down and saluted the Daoist in front of him.

The Taoist priest also bent down to return the gift.

The Taoist priest lived on the top of Mount Wushan. As soon as he went out, he saw clouds and mist, and a few spirit beasts were standing leisurely under the tree. Ji Changli walked down the mountain along the path to the west, his face was calm. There was no joy or sorrow until he reached the foot of the mountain and saw his little apprentice sitting lazily on the ground basking in the sun, and a smile appeared on his face.

Seeing Ji Changli walking towards him from a long distance, Bai Xiyu patted his ass and got up from the ground, waved his hands and shouted to Ji Changli: "Master, you can count it down, I'm so anxious!"

The smile on Ji Changli's face widened a bit, he walked over and knocked him on the head, and said with a smile, "I told you not to follow, but you didn't listen, you should."

Bai Xiyu smiled and did not speak.

Ji Changli took his hand and smiled softly, "Let's go back."

----

In the blink of an eye, several months have passed since Ji Changli returned from Mount Wu, and Bai Xiyu was also given to death by a cup of poisoned wine last winter, and he tried his best to preserve his body well.

Only after the Shangyuan Festival, the Taoist priest came as promised.

At this time, the Taoist priest also saw that Ji Changli had made up his mind. He still felt a little sorry for Ji Changli, so he persuaded him, "Why does your majesty have to do this? If General Bai knew your majesty's plan, I'm afraid In the end, I still have to hate His Majesty."

Ji Changli lowered his head and was silent for a while, then suddenly grinned, raised his head again, and said to Taoist priest, "He won't remember me."

Daoist was taken aback for a moment, then thought of something, and asked uncertainly, "Lihun Pill?"

Ji Changli nodded, "Yes."

Lihun Pill is a magical medicine left by the legendary immortal who cultivated the Ruthless Way. This medicine can make the user forget the most important person to him, and it will not cause any harm to the user.

"Your Majesty was able to find this medicine." Daochang sighed and shook his head, "Forget it, if Your Majesty insists on doing this, I can only perform this resurrection technique for Your Majesty once."

"It's just that this technique of turning around from death requires Pindao to prepare for a while."

Ji Changli nodded and asked, "When?"

"It needs to be in the first ten days of May, after the ear seedlings." The Taoist priest replied.

Ji Changli smiled, "I see, thank you Daoist."

Daoist Priest looked at Ji Changli's appearance, and didn't know what to say, so he could only give Ji Changli a few words before leaving, and he said: "Your Majesty will die for no reason, and General Bai will die again. As for Fusheng, if this matter is exploited by someone with a heart, the world may be in chaos again, and I hope His Majesty can handle this matter properly."

"I know."

"Farewell, poor Taoist." The Taoist priest flicked the whisk in his hand again, turned his head and walked outside the imperial study.

"Taoist, walk slowly." Ji Changli was behind, bending over and clasping his hands.

----

It took about three or four days to go from the capital to Weizhou. Bai Xiyu ran on a fast horse for three days and two nights, and finally arrived in Weizhou in the evening of the third day.

The first person Bai Xiyu went to meet was General Xie. General Xie's name was Xie Ying. He used to be the leader of a cottage. Later, he fought with Ji Changli and lost. Since then, he has been by Ji Changli's side. Let him be master.

But when Ji Changli told him about his identity later, Bai Xiyu realized that this matter was not so simple. Ji Changli was the only remaining blood of the former royal family, and Xie Ying was precisely the manpower left behind by the former royal family. , That's why the two of them only had a fight, and the bastard looked at Mung Bean, and they saw each other right.

The relationship between Xie Ying and Bai Xiyu can be said to be very good. He is more than 20 years older than Bai Xiyu. Half a son is being raised.

Thinking of this, Bai Xiyu lowered his head with a headache. If Xie Ying knew that she was given a cup of poisonous wine to die by Ji Changli because she molested Yun Ji, she would be sad for a while.

He sighed, jumped off the horse, and then led the horse, walking on the streets of Weizhou City. There are many soldiers stationed here in Weizhou. These are the brothers who accompanied Ji Changli to fight together. Bai Xiyu is also very familiar with them, but with his current status, he is naturally very unfamiliar with these people.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the General's Mansion. Xie Ying knew that Bai Xiyu had come with Ji Changli's letter, and her expression sank instantly. Bai Xiyu had already guessed that Xie Ying already knew about her death, and she was afraid that it was right Ji Changli was still somewhat dissatisfied.

But in any case, no matter how dissatisfied Xie Ying was, Ji Changli was the only master he could be loyal to, so he still accepted the letter from Bai Xiyu, but in order to express his dissatisfaction, Xie Ying immediately expressed his dissatisfaction to Bai Xiyu. The eviction order was issued, "You go."

"Your Majesty said that you need to wait for the general to read this letter before he can leave."

"Many things." Xie Ying frowned, muttered something in a low voice, then tore open the envelope, sat down on the main seat and looked down.

After about the time to have a cup of tea, Xie Ying finally finished reading these few pages of letter paper.

When Xie Ying raised his head again, Bai Xiyu saw that his eyes were still a little red, as if he had just cried for a while. What did Ji Changli say in the letter that moved him so much?Bai Xiyu remembered that the last time General Xie cried was when his mother died of illness, what happened now?Although Bai Xiyu was curious, it was inconvenient for him to ask more questions, so he could only stand obediently by the side, not daring to say a word.

Xie Ying stood up, walked in front of Bai Xiyu, took a long breath, his voice trembling, and asked, "Your Majesty, is he alright?"

Although he felt that his question was a bit inexplicable, Bai Xiyu nodded, "Your Majesty, he is fine."

Then he saw Xie Ying frowned invisibly, as if he was not so satisfied with his answer, but he didn't ask any more, just said, "Go back and report to Your Majesty, I know, and I will make arrangements."

"Yes." Bai Xiyu cupped his hands, "Then I will take my leave first."

Bai Xiyu was about to turn around when Xie Ying called out again, "Wait a minute."

"grown ups?"

Xie Ying asked, "Who else do you want to send this letter to?"

"General Wang Zhicheng." Bai Xiyu replied.

"Sure enough." Xie Ying's face seemed to be a little uglier, he waved his hand, "You go."

Ji Changli gave him two letters, one was for Xie Ying, and the other was for General Wang Zhicheng.Bai Xiyu didn't know much about Wang Zhicheng, only that he was very stubborn and would not listen to anyone except Ji Changli.

This General Wang's reaction after reading the letter was much younger than Xie Ying's. Bai Xiyu reckoned that the contents of the two letters prepared by Ji Changli might be different.

----

When Bai Xiyu came back, the first month was about to end. He told Ji Changli about the situation of the two generals Wang Xie in the imperial study, and then he was about to retire.

And at this time, a palace official came in and reported that Miss Yunji was outside asking for an audience.
