"The Si family, Ding You died... Disasters are imminent, but this is not the only way..."

Hua Tiangang stood at the top, the first thing he did was not to pray for rain, but to read the eulogy slowly. His cold voice was blessed by his skills and spread far away. The people onlookers and the guarding soldiers were all shocked when they heard the words Surprised, I thought that the national teacher's rescue of the Dong family would be arranged after praying for rain.

Who would have thought that the national teacher would mourn for them on the Tongtiantai, this... If this is read by someone with a heart, there is no guarantee that the emperor will not convict the national teacher.

"The holy throne is not benevolent, how can the people bear it."

After hearing the last sentence of the national teacher, everyone knelt down in fright. This sentence... This sentence is really treasonous. It is open to say that the emperor is not benevolent. If the emperor knows this, I am afraid it will be another bloodbath. .

Bu Shiyuan on the other hill heard Hua Tiangang's last words, his expression was gloomy, Hua Tiangang is planning to seize the throne?

"It's okay, isn't his madness exactly what we want?" Zhong Li stepped forward and took Bu Shiyuan's hand to comfort him.

Bu Shiyuan nodded.

After mourning, Hua Tiangang began to pray for rain. He took out the seven bone armors in the black jade box, held them in the palm of his hand, chanted a few incantations silently, and then threw the bone armors into the air. After the fluorescent light landed on the stone table in front of him.

Pinching his fingers to interpret the meaning of the armor face, Hua Tiangang nodded, and there must be rain tomorrow.

He pulled out the long sword on the stone table and swung it on the high platform. As he swung, the tip of the sword gradually condensed layers of water vapor, and the water vapor accumulated into water droplets and danced with the tip of the sword.

The onlookers who watched so strangely were stunned, and they were sure that the national teacher was a half-immortal and a messenger sent by heaven to bless him.

The drops of water gradually formed two lines of mysterious and unfamiliar words in the air. Hua Tiangang pointed at the sky with a flick of his sword, and the words flew straight up as if being guided, until they disappeared in everyone's eyes.

"That must be the words used by the immortals. The national teacher is really a god."

The onlookers responded to this statement one after another, kowtowed and shouted: "The national teacher is a thousand years old, the national teacher is a thousand years old."

"Pretending to be a ghost, it's a disgrace to our mermaid clan. He dared to use our mermaid language to express his wolfish ambitions. Shameless, hum." Zhong Li said with a look of disgust and contempt.

"What did he write?" Bu Shiyuan asked.

"Unify the world and fly through the sky." Zhong Li then added: "It's just wishful thinking."

"Ascend through the sky? What do you mean by becoming an immortal?" Bu Shiyuan didn't believe in these rumors of ghosts and gods at first, but because of the appearance of the merman, he completely changed his world view, so he gradually began to become a theist.

"Yes, but there will be no more immortals in this world." Before the man could ask again, Zhong Li continued, "This world lacks the aura to become an immortal, and there is no entrance to the upper realm, presumably it is sealed. gone."

Seeing that the man was still frowning with doubts on his face, Zhong Li spread his hands helplessly and said, "I don't know the details, I learned these from the forbidden area of ​​our mermaid clan. In short, it is impossible for Hua Tiangang to become Immortal, but the 'domination of the world' in front of him is still possible, the premise is if we can't kill him successfully."

"He must die." The man turned and left after leaving only one sentence, Zhong Li nodded and followed.

After praying for rain, the capital and several surrounding counties, streets and alleys, restaurants, teahouses, casinos and brothels, in short, wherever there are people, they are all talking about the national teacher openly risking the emperor's beheading on Tongtiantai to avenge the Dong family's grievances. Everyone was moved by the national teacher, and praised the national teacher as worthy of being a virtuous person, who is really dedicated to serving the people, and can be called a reincarnated god and Buddha.

In addition to the matter of redress, the most amazing thing is the process of praying for rain. After the tongues of the onlookers are shining like lotus flowers, Hua Tiangang is like a fairy coming. Everyone believes that the national teacher said that it will rain tomorrow. Hold on, and stand firm.

Golden Palace.

Bu Shiyuan sat on the dragon chair, with a murderous look on his face, "Come here, Master Xuan Guo will see you."

The ministers who were in cold sweat all frowned when they heard this. Is the emperor going to settle accounts with the national teacher?

Gyeonggi Prefecture Yin Lindong gritted his teeth and stood up, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

"Say."

"The national teacher is exhausted, I think..."

"Needless to say, if you say more, don't blame me for punishing you."

"What I said..." Lin Dong wanted to say more, but was interrupted by another person.

"Your Majesty, the minister is also playing." Fang Ji could not be unaware of his friend's stubborn temper, so he hurriedly interrupted his words.

Lin Dong received Fang Ji's eyes and had no choice but to retreat to the team.

Lin Dong said a few irrelevant things, and after getting the emperor to let him take full responsibility, he also returned to the line.

After a while, Eunuch Zhang, the chief eunuch, came in with a national teacher in a white robe.

The emperor questioned the last sentence of Hua Tiangang's eulogy, Hua Tiangang did not defend himself, and bluntly hoped that the Holy One would recognize his own mistakes and correct them.

Such upright and harsh remarks immediately aroused the emperor's monstrous anger, and directly sent people in to want to put the national teacher into the prison. Unfortunately, all the civil and military officials knelt down to plead for the national teacher. I don't know where it came out According to the news, there are people kneeling at the nine gates of the palace, and they bluntly hope that the emperor will forgive the national teacher for the sake of the national teacher asking for rain for the people.

It wasn't until it was getting dark that the emperor was forced to take a step back and said: "If it really rains tomorrow, then the national teacher will be spared the crime. If there is no rain, then the national teacher will be banned for a year."

Everyone is merciful.

Furious, he rushed back to Weiyang Palace, and after slamming the palace door, Bu Shiyuan took off his disguise, and without any trace of anger, he walked into the secret room with a cold smile on his lips.

"how?"

"Completed." Zhong Li, who had turned into a shark, smiled back and said briskly.

The series of events in which Bu Shiyuan summoned Hua Tiangang on the main hall, then condemned him, and then said "If there is no rain tomorrow, we will be grounded" are just for time.

In order for Hua Tiangang to have no time to sense changes in water vapor in the air.

In order for Zhong Li to have time to recover the moisture that has been increasing in the past few days.

Otherwise, it might really rain tomorrow.

The next day.

The people in the capital were a little restless, and someone said: "Why has the application time passed, and the rain hasn't fallen yet?"

"I don't know, wait a minute, when did the national teacher make a mistake."

"But it doesn't look like it's going to rain today."

"Wait a little longer, the national teacher is indeed not at fault, maybe this rain only falls when you are here." Some people folded their hands together and muttered something to the still clear sky.

All the people waited and waited, from Shen Shi to You Shi to Xu Shi and Hai Shi, and even to Zi Shi on the second day, they did not see a drop of rain.

All the people who were in the mood of anticipation and joy became more miserable and howled overnight.

Apocalypse Palace.

Hua Tiangang waved down the exquisite teacup, stood up in a panic, and growled, "Impossible, how could it be? How could it be like this?"

Obviously when he prayed for rain yesterday, he could still feel the majestic water vapor in the air, and he has been sensing it since returning to the palace. Obviously, the water vapor has not decreased by half, how could it be...

Is it...

The eyes under Hua Tiangang's mask narrowed sharply, with murderous intent in them. Did someone take advantage of the yellow-haired boy to make things difficult for him yesterday and get rid of the moisture?

No, Hua Tiangang touched his chin with his right hand, pacing back and forth, no, maybe, maybe the water vapor that felt like it was about to rain was also made by that person, not a human, but a mermaid, the one who gave him blood coercion before. Sensual shark.

Hua Tiangang turned his gaze to the direction of Weiyang Palace, and stayed still.So, was Bu Shiyuan really angry when he made things difficult yesterday, or was he instigated by someone to delay his time?

Maybe, that merman is beside Bu Shiyuan?

"Tianying, go find out who has appeared around the emperor in recent months?"

The dark guard took the order and left.

Hua Tiangang temporarily put aside the matter of finding the merman clan, and waited for the news from Tianying. He had a hunch that there must be something around Bu Shiyuan, and Tianying would not return empty-handed.

The thing that needs to be solved most now is how to give those common people an acceptable answer, and then think about what the merman's plan is for making this happen.

Before Hua Tiangang could figure out how to reply, the real reason why Dong Fangzheng was murdered by the nine clans came out from all over the street.

"I heard that Dong Fangzheng was not killed by the emperor because he was dissatisfied with the state teacher. I heard that he embezzled the money for the construction of the dam in the Sinan area."

"Hey, what's your head like? Can you be punished for embezzling money? I heard, tsk, come to me, I will scare you to death when I tell the news." The people in the teahouse hurriedly approached. Surround this person.

This person still said weakly in the circle: "I heard that the death of the first emperor is related to him."

The people on the outside didn't hear the news, only the gasps from the people on the inside.

"This... this... you can't... talk nonsense."

"That's right, rumors, I... I don't listen to it, I'm in trouble, I'm going home."

The man was not frightened, and then analyzed in a low voice: "I didn't believe it at first, but think about it, how could the late emperor die because of a small wind and cold? He also said that the wind and cold caused old diseases, the late emperor But I have never been on the battlefield or been assassinated, where did the old disease come from? Even if there is, none of the doctors in the Tai Hospital can heal it?."

"This..." Several people inside were also dumbfounded by the words.

The man continued: "Also, the current emperor is the third prince, and he is born of a concubine. When the first emperor was alive, we only knew that the first prince and the fourth prince were favored, and the third prince was only good at military affairs and political affairs. I don't know anything about it, no matter how you say it, the late emperor would not give up the throne to the third prince, but why..." The speaker did not continue, but everyone knew what it meant.

"Yes, yes, I heard that in the past, all political affairs were handled by the State Teacher, and even the memorials of the ministers were transported to Tianqi Palace~" another person echoed.

"Then...then, Dong Fangzheng speaks for the National Teacher. In fact, the Emperor wants to handle the government affairs by himself, but Dong Fangzheng is not willing to speak for the National Teacher because he is afraid that the rights of the National Teacher will be taken away?"

"This... this... is this still the world under the Bu family?"

"I said to you people, how many things the national teacher has done for us, how many rains and snows have we begged for, how can you speculate on the national teacher's intentions like this." Some people didn't believe it, and condemned it.

Some people are right after thinking about it, and then ask suspiciously: "Then you said that the national teachers were very good before, why this time..."

"I heard from the second son's daughter-in-law of the neighbor next door to me, the third concubine's aunt's nephew's nephew's youngest son. He is a servant in the palace, so the news can't be wrong. I think so, this The reason why the second time praying for rain didn’t work is because the national teacher rescued Dong Fangzheng’s family on Tongtiantai, do you still remember what the national teacher said in the last sentence?”

Eight words sounded in everyone's minds: the saint is inhumane, how can the people be ashamed.

I thought it was the national teacher's loyal words, but now that I think about it, it may be Sima Zhao's heart.

"According to what you said, the reason for the ineffectiveness of this rain is that the national teacher's heart is not clean, and he has such rebellious thoughts?"

"I didn't say that, I just said what I know, you have to be careful what you say." Everyone pulled themselves out of the danger zone, but although they didn't agree with their mouths, they looked at the eyes, Nine out of ten people think so.

"Didn't the emperor say that? If the rain doesn't work well, then the national teacher's feet will be banned, let's see."

After these people dispersed, rumors that were similar to what they said but sounded more convincing spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital within three days, and even faintly spread to the outer city. People also whispered in private, for fear of getting killed.

Just when everyone was guessing whether the national teacher had wolfish ambitions, another piece of news came out from the palace.

The national teacher played the emperor's request to pray for rain again in five days, and the emperor agreed for the sake of the common people, and this time the national teacher and the emperor went to Daxiangguo Temple together to show their sincerity to heaven.

Three days passed, and the mighty army set off in the direction of Daxiangguo Temple.

On the way, Hua Tiangang's carriage was suddenly shot into something from the window.

He picked up the palm-sized wooden ball, unscrewed it gently, and took out the letter inside.There is a mysterious symbol on the letter, which is the logo of Shadow Dragon Guard.

"Sun He, the eunuch guarding the gate, Lu Ru, the maid of honor, Eunuch Zhang's new apprentice, Empress Cui, the newly recruited concubine in the harem, Zhong Li, the imperial cat envoy, and the newly appointed Imperial Academy attendant for the imperial examination..."

A total of 38 people were mentioned in the letter, and these were all newcomers who had appeared around the emperor in recent months, maybe the merman was among them.

Hua Tiangang pointed his finger at the five characters "Royal Cat Envoy Zhong Li".

He remembered this Zhong Li. When he first summoned him, his blood seemed to be a little strange. At that time, he thought it was because his skill had just been promoted. Now that he thinks about it, maybe...

"Go check this Zhong Li again."
