Chapter 212 The Monkey King
The more complex the conspiracy is, the more difficult it will be to implement it, because such a conspiracy must be focused on one thing. As long as a certain link is wrong, the entire plan will be completely failed.
All the plans in this world are not foolproof. This kind of thing is like stringing beads. There are too many beads and look exquisite, but the thread of the beads is easier to break. If the thread breaks, the beads will fall all over the ground, and things will be defeated.
The more links there are, the more refined the more likely it is to fail.
So if you engage in a conspiracy, the fewer the links in the middle, the better. It is best to trade it in one go.
If Emperor Taizong of the Great Qi had not had the Xuanwu Gate Incident, he had become a prisoner. Is this palace transformation that is famous in history very complicated? In fact, it is very simple. It can be explained clearly in just a few words. Taizong reported that his brother had an affair with his concubine's mother. Emperor Gaozu summoned the prince into the palace to confront him. Taizong ambushed the army at Xuanwu Gate, killed his brother, and entered the palace to put his father under house arrest.
Going further forward, it is not complicated to point to the person who was the one who swore Luoshui to raise three thousand dead soldiers in an insult. To put it bluntly, it is just taking advantage of the general to accompany the emperor out of the city to sweep the grave to launch a coup to control Kyoto.
There was also the Heyin Incident, where all the ministers were summoned to Heyin to worship the sky, and no one was allowed to ask for leave. They ambushed the soldiers not far from the place where the sacrifices to heaven were sacrificed, and took the opportunity to slaughter the ministers.
These conspiracies are not complicated, nor are there so many twists and turns. The key is to seize the opportunity.
People from the Li family are well aware of this, and they mainly focus on one that is simple and rough.
The key to this conspiracy is not how exquisite the Li family’s plan is, but whether they can seize the opportunity. Qi Xuansu takes the initiative to come to Qizhou is a god-given opportunity.
Qi Xuansu didn't know that the Li family had planned to attack him, but he was not completely unprepared. After all, he had been in the martial arts world and the Taoist sect for so many years, and he would have no less guard against others.
Xiao Yin is ready, his divine power is ready, and there is also the immortal object "Guizang Lantern". When necessary, you can predict the future and issue a warning. You should also add lamp oil, so you can't tolerate any carelessness.
Qi Xuansu felt that as long as the national teacher did not take action, there should be no big problem.
Putting aside all kinds of external objects, Qi Xuansu himself is no longer the same as before. As he gets closer to the stage of immortality, his "Tao" is also deviating. He has changed from the immortals of the Taoist sect to the witch of the Witch Cult. The battle with the Peacock King has shown that Qi Xuansu has the power to fight against the immortals. At least it is not difficult to pass three moves and two moves. If he is surprised, he can even gain a slight advantage in a short period of time.
But if you face the national teacher, Qi Xuansu is not sure.
When he was attacking the Ise Temple in Fenglinzhou, Qi Xuansu had seen the national master take action. He defeated Mikiko in one encounter, and killed the dragon with his hands. He was invincible with the sword's edge. He was the first attacker that Qi Xuansu had ever seen.
It is said that if one force breaks all the laws, the national master almost reaches the realm of breaking all the laws with one sword.
Qi Xuansu guessed that he had met the national master, which was a sword.
Even if you can't kill Qi Xuansu with one sword, it will definitely make Qi Xuansu lose his ability to move.
However, Qi Xuansu believes that the national master cannot do such a thing. First, it is to maintain its own identity, and second, it is that there is no room for maneuver after the national master takes action.
If someone takes action against Qi Xuansu, it is easy for others to say that the national teacher can still say that these people were done without him, but he himself did not know about it, and Taipingdao did not mean this. This is a personal behavior, not a Taipingdao behavior.
This is the room for space.
But if the national master ends in person, then there is no way to say it. When he reaches the national master's status, there is no personal behavior. His every move represents Taiping Dao. If he takes action, Taiping Dao will take action. If he falls, Taiping Dao will end.
There is no room for this.
Once the balance between the third divisions is broken, the Heavenly Master will rush to the Southern Continent for thousands of miles.
There is also the Earth Master. Although it is difficult to distinguish between the Earth Master and the Friends, and many situations are dim and difficult to clarify, one thing is certain that the Earth Master is very invested in Qi Xuansu. Even if there is any conflict between the Earth Master and Qi Xuansu, it will be a matter in the future. Being intercepted by the Li family is another nature.
Qi Xuansu was ready and left Yujing with Zhang Yuelu. The two went to Jinling Mansion together, and then they would separate in Jinling Mansion. Qi Xuansu went from Jinling Mansion to Qizhou.
Zhang Yuelu was not in a hurry to go to Putuo Island, but went to see the Heavenly Master first.
Not only Zhang Yuelu, but also Zhang Kucheng and the Zhang family elders were all in Jinling Mansion. The Zhang family elders had already arrived in Yujing, but were called to Jinling Mansion by the Heavenly Master again because the time for the imperial court was finally decided.
When Xiao Yin took away the "National Seal" from Qin Quanxiao and handed it to Qi Xuansu, Qi Xuansu was handed over to Tianshi.
The Tianshi contacted the court. If the court wanted to negotiate, then the location of the Tianshi would be decided, and it would be in Dabaoen Temple, Jinling Prefecture. This is a good place for negotiation. By the way, let the people of the Confucian school be a witness, and the time would be determined by the court.
When the imperial court had a reply, the time was set in the last few days, and the emperor came forward in person. This specification suddenly went up, and the Tianshi had to temporarily summon the elders of the Zhang family to go with him to boost his momentum, which led to the elders of the Zhang family letting Qi Xuansu's pigeon, making Qi Xuansu grit his teeth and complete his last trembling.
Now today, the master and others have arrived in Jinling Mansion. According to the will of the Heavenly Master, Zhang Yuelu also participated. As a junior, it is great to see the world.
In fact, Zhang Yuelu was a little worried about Qi Xuansu. She told Qi Xuansu several times, so it would be better to be careful. After all, the current situation is subtle and about to break out. It is hard to say that no one will take the risk.
Zhang Yuelu originally wanted to lend the "Three or Five Male and Female Evil Sword" to Qi Xuansu, but considering that the Heavenly Master wanted to meet Emperor Daxuan, he might be able to use this immortal sword, so he had to give up.
However, the "Guizang Lamp" is the key to Qi Xuansu's control of the "Heaven", so Qi Xuansu did not return the "Guizang Lamp" back.
In this way, Qi Xuansu said goodbye to Zhang Yuelu in Jinling Prefecture and continued to go north.
This scene seems familiar. When Qi Xuansu escorted Liu Hu to Bohai Mansion, he also said goodbye to Zhang Yuelu in Jiangnan. However, this time it turned into Liu Hu following Zhang Yuelu, and Qi Xuansu only had Xiao Yin next to him.
As the Li family expected, Qi Xuansu did not walk the Grand Canal like last time, but chose to take the sea route because it was even more important to go to Jinao Peak. In addition, Qi Xuansu took an ordinary boat last time to Qizhou, but this time he rode a flying boat. The more water vapor was, the smaller the consumption of the flying boat, and even no consumption. As long as there were no special circumstances, the flying boat could take the sea route, it would not take the land route.
Since it is a flying boat, we will naturally arrive in Qizhou in a blink of an eye.
When the Donghua lineage was still on Jinao Peak, the Taoist sect had not yet made a large number of flying boats, so there were no supporting facilities for flying boats on Jinao Peak.
Later, the Donghua lineage moved out of Taiqing Mountain and Jinao Peak became a "honor-nursing place". Because the scenery was excellent, many retired Taoist priests liked to stay here to avoid the world and cultivate themselves. Even the working Taoist priests occasionally took peace and stayed here for a few days.
Since we want to avoid the world and demand quietness, of course we cannot build flying boat takeoff and landing facilities, which will ruin the purity, but we must enjoy the fun of climbing.
Qi Xuansu could not directly park the flying boat on Jinao Peak, so he could only park nearby on the sea, just not far from the top of the immortal platform.
As soon as Qi Xuansu's flying boat stopped, many people from Taiping Road learned the news and were waiting on the shore.
Xiao Yin lay on the railing and looked at the people on the shore curiously.
Qi Xuansu came behind Xiao Yin, stood with his hands behind his back, and his eyes also looked at the shore.
"Old Qi, who are these people?" Xiao Yin turned around and looked at Qi Xuansu and asked.
Qi Xuansu replied: "Of course he is from Taipingdao."
"So it's them." Xiao Yin also knew the difference between the three paths, and also knew that Taiping Road belongs to a hostile force. "Strange, what are they doing here?"
Qi Xuansu said: "The person who comes is not good."
Xiao Yin turned his head again: "I think so, they are almost writing their smiles on their faces."
Qi Xuansuqi said: "Do you still have this ability?"
"I'm the best at watching people." Xiao Yin put his hands on his hips and blinked his big eyes hard, "Fiery eyes and golden eyes!"
Qi Xuansu said: "Then I will test you, what do you think these people want to do?"
Xiao Yin thought for a while and said, "Can you want to treat us to a meal."
Qi Xuansu couldn't help but smile and said, "Eat, eat, eat, eat, you will know how to eat, but you are really right this time. Most of these people are here to treat us to a meal."
"I'll just say it, right." Xiao Yin was very proud, "I'm the most accurate in looking at people. What kind of demons and ghosts, beautiful women's skins, swords, fires, and traps can't escape my Xiao Yin's eyes. My eyes are mirrors of demons..."
"Stop, stop, Qi Tian Xiaosheng, right?" Qi Xuansu interrupted, "I'll test you again, have you remembered any allusions?"
Xiao Yin said: "Stop looking down on others. What can you remember? Isn't it just the allusion of the Hongmen Banquet?"
Qi Xuansu said, "You are right. Let me ask you again, if they want to invite us, then will we go or not?"
Xiao Yin did not answer immediately this time, but thought about it seriously before saying, "Of course we have to go!"
Qi Xuansu was a little curious: "What's the saying? I knew there was a tiger in the mountain and went to the tiger mountain?"
Xiao Yin put on the posture of a senior expert and said in an old-fashioned manner: "It's my turn to ask you, who was the Hongmen Banquet to invite whom?"
Qi Xuansu said: "It was the overlord who invited the then Pei Gong, who was later Emperor Gao of Dapei, who was called Emperor Gao of abbreviation, and later Emperor Gao of abbreviation."
Xiao Yin asked, "What's the result?"
Qi Xuansu said: "Xiang Zhuang dances his sword, aiming to Pei Gong. As a result, Pei Gong survived the disaster and fought for the world with the overlord. In the end, Pei Gong established Da Pei and became the emperor, but the overlord ended up being dismembered."
Xiao Yin clapped his hands: "So, the King of the King invited Pei Gong and set up a night banquet in Hongmen. As a result, Pei Gong became the emperor and the King of the King defeated Wujiang. Now these people with the surname Li invited us to the banquet in Hongmen, and the result was the same. In the end, you must be the chief sect, and the person with the surname Li would follow the old path of the King of the King."
Qi Xuansu had to admire: "I never thought of this level."
Xiao Yin raised his head high and said, "Don't you look at who I am? The little saint of Monkey King!"
Qi Xuansu sighed: "Xiao Yin, you are different from others. It seems that you can't waste your time on your studies."
Xiao Yin was proud: "I have said a long time ago that you and Lao Zhang would not listen."
