The Way of the National Teacher

There are still five days before the beginning of autumn, and the Celestial Master Dojo has been in full swing under the auspices of Cui Situ.

He Lianxuan has been complaining of illness and stayed in the National Teacher's Mansion. She naturally knows that her actions have brought a lot of pressure to Nanchao.After all, she bears the name of a princess, and staying in the Wei Dynasty for a long time is equivalent to keeping a hostage, making the Nan Dynasty shorter than the Wei Dynasty for no reason.But she has other considerations about this, because Emperor Wei likes to hear about it.The northern and southern dynasties were equal in strength, but the remaining crown princesses of the southern dynasties gave the Wei Dynasty a lot of face, so the Wei Emperor treated He Lianzhen very kindly.

Of course, I am also very curious about the surname "Helian".Emperor Wei started to send people to investigate. However, in today's troubled times, the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms have gradually been wiped out, refugees are everywhere, and people without household registration abound, so it is very laborious to investigate, but soon, Emperor Wei It was found that He Lianzhen was the senior sister of the national teacher Chuli.

This news surprised Emperor Wei.The sisters of the same school, one south and one north, established two dynasties, and Chu Li's weight was more important, or to be precise, Chu Li's use value was higher.In particular, Chu Li's identity suddenly couldn't just be a national teacher of the Wei Dynasty, and a junior sister who was dependent on the princess and concubine of the Southern Dynasty, which meant that the forces behind Chu Li also began to become intertwined.

Emperor Wei couldn't help frowning.If you abandon the car now to protect the handsome man and push Chu Li out as a scapegoat, you will definitely offend Nanchao.However, in the current situation, the Wei Dynasty is at war with Beiliang, and there is no time for others. If the evenly matched Southern Dynasty comes to fight this time, the Wei Dynasty may suffer a big loss.

If you don't let Chu leave, who will you let go?Originally, he promoted Chu Li to be a target.Emperor Wei frowned.

At this time, the national teacher asked to see him.

Emperor Wei hesitated, "Xuan."

As soon as Chu Li saw Emperor Wei, he was filled with righteous indignation and seemed very impulsive, "Your Majesty, those people in the Chongxuan Department are too hateful!"

"National Teacher, don't be in a hurry, talk slowly if you have something to do." With a smile in his eyes, Emperor Wei kindly asked the servant to show Chu Li his seat.

Chu Li didn't sit down, but said angrily, "Your Majesty, people from the Chongxuan Department are spreading rumors wantonly now, saying that they have condemned the heavens, and they are talking about clearing the king's side and eliminating demons. In my opinion, it is completely out of thin air. chaos!"

"Oh?" Emperor Wei's smile deepened, "What does the national teacher think about this?"

"This is all nonsense!" Chu Li said, "When the emperor governs benevolently, the world will be governed. The emperor is a wise king, and the rewards and punishments are clear. Now that the Wei Dynasty is flourishing, there will be no punishment! Besides, natural disasters are just natural disasters, and the emperor What does it matter! From my point of view, someone must be targeting the emperor and Lord Cui!"

Emperor Wei was very surprised when he heard this, "Lord Cui?"

"That's right!" Chu Li took it for granted, "Mr. Qing's way of getting rid of demons, isn't the way of demons on your side is Master Cui!" Chu Li was indignant, "Master Cui is a disciple of Kou Tianshi. , how can I just watch Master Cui being slandered by others!"

The corner of Emperor Wei's mouth twitched slightly. Everyone in the world now thought that the monster on the king's side was Chu Li, but Chu Li thought it was Cui Hao?Emperor Wei was very interested, "What is the explanation of the national teacher's words?"

"Your Majesty, although I am not a member of the Taoist sect and I have not become a monk, I am inclined towards Huang Lao's teachings. Now the world is preliminarily settled, and it is your Majesty who fought with real swords and guns on the battlefield with real swords and guns. Chongxuan The people in the department are not only ungrateful, but also spread rumors everywhere, so I am really angry!"

As Chu Li said, he slapped the seat next to him angrily, making the servants beside Emperor Wei unable to look sideways.Emperor Wei was awakened by her words. How could he have forgotten that Chu Li, the national teacher, has always claimed to be a non-Taoist, that is to say, the so-called "demon elimination" by the Chongxuan Department is not on Chu Li's head at all? !

Although this little national teacher didn't understand the principles of officialdom, she picked herself up completely in a few words, and Emperor Wei couldn't help but take a deep look at her.However, he only saw the national teacher Chu Liqi's blushing face and thick neck, but the little girl in her early twenties almost rolled up her sleeves and jumped up.

Chu Li said again, "Your Majesty, you must not listen to the rumors made by those monks in the Chongxuan Department. Mr. Cui has great achievements and is rich in knowledge. He is a veteran of the three dynasties. Who in the world would not believe it! Xuanxiang knows everything, and he can predict things like a god. He is a talent born in the world, and I admire Master Cui very much. There must be someone who sees that Master Cui has become a Situ, and he is the ultimate minister, so he is jealous and jealous of spreading rumors and causing trouble. I implore the emperor, don't listen to slander!"

Emperor Wei heard a lot from her, but there was only one sentence that made his eyes sink - "Is there anyone in the world who is not convinced".That's right, Cui Hao has now reached the official rank of Situ, ranking among the three princes. He is the ultimate minister and cannot be higher.No matter how high it is, how high can it be... Wei Di waved his hand and said with a smile, "Although I believe in Cui Situ, but the people in the world don't believe it, and now it's hard to get angry."

"Your Majesty, I heard that Lord Gao Ping, Li Shun, had always been at odds with Lord Cui. Now that Lord Gao Ping was in prison, it was because of Lord Cui's letter that you, Your Majesty, took Lord Situ's advice and sent troops to attack Beiliang, so you discovered Lord Gao Ping's plot. It must be that Gao Pinggong's people have a grudge against Master Cui, so they made these plots and tricks, I beg the emperor to find out!"

Emperor Wei narrowed his eyes, "What opinion does the National Teacher have on Gao Pinggong's case?"

"Mr. Gao Ping's collusion with the enemy and treason is a capital crime, and he should be punished by the nine clans!"

"Hmph," Emperor Wei smiled ambiguously, "I'm afraid Master Cui won't be able to escape from his nine clans."

Chu Li pretended to choke for a moment, and lowered his voice, "But the emperor thinks that Gao Pinggong has no credit but hard work, so he shouldn't punish the nine clans, right?"

Emperor Wei looked at her meaningfully, "We will discuss this matter later. The National Teacher is here for the case of the Chongxuan Department?"

"Exactly!" Chu Li said, "Kou Tianshi has kindness to this minister, and I don't know anything else, but Master has always taught you to repay your kindness, not to mention that the Chongxuan Department is purely afraid that the world will not be chaotic. This matter is really hateful!" He added, "I hate the monks with ulterior motives to confuse the people the most in my life, I beg the emperor to learn from me!"

Chu Li did not cheat on this point, and Emperor Wei firmly believed in it.He said, "I heard the words of the national teacher. Waiting for the celestial master's dojo, I hope the national teacher will be wise for the people, is the national teacher willing?"

"My humble minister will never give up!" Chu Li bowed deeply.

When leaving the palace, Chu Li lowered his head, with a clear smile on his lips.What the senior sister said is correct, the most feared thing for any emperor is the "master of high merit".She just planted a seed for the emperor now, and she only needs to wait for the time to mature before the seed will germinate and grow.By the way, she planted another introduction, the stricter she is on Gao Pinggong's case now, the more suspicion she will arouse the emperor when she pleads for Gao Pinggong five days later.

And all the suspicions will point to one end - Cui Hao, the most favored Lord Situ.
