After saying that, Datou and the others all nodded, but even though they nodded, they did not completely agree with what he said. The reason was also very simple. In their opinion, God was not fair. If God were really just, there would be no such thing in the world.

It is said that good people do not live long and bad people live only a hundred years. There is no such thing as the saying that hemp ropes are only cut at the smallest points and bad luck only seeks out the miserable.

He also knew that Datou and others did not agree with his statement, and he did not explain more. It was not that he did not want to explain, nor that he could not explain, but that the way of heaven involves the mystery of heaven, earth, and the universe. To explain and discuss it requires extensive reference, which is quite time-consuming.

Lips and tongue, and now is obviously not the time to talk about scriptures and Taoism.

Ni Chenyi had sent people out to buy fruits and snacks before. While everyone was drinking tea and chatting, the maid brought up the fruits and snacks they had packed up. He and Datou were not hungry, but Yang Kai and others were galloping all the way, and their chests were already hungry.

Sticking to their backs, when they saw the fruits and snacks being brought to them, they stood up, washed their hands, and took their food.

At this moment, Ni Zhuo arrived, and everyone hurriedly stood up to greet him.

Ni Zhuo did not pretend to be humble. He raised his hand to everyone casually, then took his seat and turned to look, "Does the imperial court know that you are bringing troops here this time?"

"These cavalry are all surrendered soldiers that we recruited from Qingyang, and are not part of the military establishment," he said, "but when we left from Qingyang, I still sent Yu Yi to send a memorial back to inform the emperor that I would bring troops here.

."

Hearing this, Ni Zhuo felt relieved and said, "You are now in a high position of power, and it is easy for you to overshadow your master. You must be more cautious in your actions. You must know that most of the high-ranking civil servants in the court have been offended by you. Scholars are jealous and will definitely hold grudges."

.You have been fighting abroad all year round and are not by the Emperor’s side. Those civil servants will inevitably make slanderous remarks to the Emperor and sow discord.”

"That's what I'm reminding you, sir." He nodded.

Datou and others were all born in martial arts and were out-and-out military generals. Civil servants and military generals have always been at odds with each other. Although they didn't say anything, the four of them were very angry. Datou was the first to speak, "These civil servants are a bunch of bad-ass women.

Son, I can’t do anything serious at all, I only know how to talk and play tricks all day long.”

After finishing speaking, Yang Kai said, "In the past few years, the prince has eliminated the eunuchs, purged the officials, enriched the national treasury, protected the country, swept away Japanese pirates, and protected the country. His military exploits are outstanding, and the government and the public can see them. As long as the emperor is still awake, he will

I will not listen to slander or baseless suspicion."

Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming were eating and did not answer, but their expressions were gloomy, especially Yu Yi. Because Qian Zhonglin harmed everyone in Shifang'an, she expressed her disapproval of the civil servants headed by Qian Zhonglin.

It can be described as deeply disgusting.

"Did you know that some time ago, nearly a hundred civil servants jointly submitted a letter to the emperor?" Ni Zhuo asked in a deep voice.

As soon as Ni Zhuo said this, everyone on his side was stunned. They shook their heads and said, "You also know that we are away from home all year round and don't pay much attention to what's going on in the court."

"Are these guys talking bad about the prince again?" Datou asked.

"You have underestimated this group of civil servants too much," Ni Zhuo said. "They are very cunning and insidious. Knowing that you have repeatedly made extraordinary achievements and cannot slander or slander them, they used another more sophisticated method.

They used insidious means, jointly signed the letter, and tried their best to exaggerate your achievements. They only said that you were the five planets who were ordered to come to earth, and asked the emperor to write books and erect monuments for you, build shrines, and accept sacrifices and offerings from the people."

Hearing Ni Zhuo's words, the five people stared in shock and looked at each other. They never expected that this group of civil servants would do such a thing. This was not a pat on the back, let alone a praise, but a genuine flattery. The result could only be It made the emperor feel uncomfortable.

Ni Zhuo looked gloomy and continued, "Some time ago, the imperial court made Long Haotian the king of Xichuan County. Before that, Long Haotian proclaimed himself the king of heaven. Some civil servants knew that it was your idea to make Long Haotian the king of Xichuan County, so they acted maliciously. Shangshu, I just want to say that the reason why you proposed to make Long Haotian the king of Xichuan County is because you want to be the king of heaven. You also said that you have great achievements and have saved the emperor's life several times. You deserve this honor. I ask the emperor to make you king. The king of heaven deserves to enjoy the yellow chariot and the jade chariot."

"The Huanghui Jade Bridle is the emperor's travel regulations." Yu Yi frowned.

"Their viciousness goes far beyond that," Ni Zhuo raised his hand and pointed eastward, "there are also civil servants who are sparse, replacing things with others, and comparing things in the Han Dynasty to the present. They only think that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was also a star, and they compared you to Emperor Guangwu. Liu Xiu, now Zhang Zhenren has captured Luoyang, and Luoyang is where Emperor Guangwu established his capital. They only say that Luoyang's purple energy is born at night, and the emperor's atmosphere has appeared. Zhang Zhenren's stationing troops in Luoyang is to prepare for your future accession to the throne. Do you think that the emperor went to Luoyang in person just to reward the three armies? In fact, this is not the case. The emperor went to inspect it in person, just to move the capital to Luoyang and seize the treasure land of Dragon Qi."

Hearing Ni Zhuo's words felt like falling into an ice cave, he did not doubt the authenticity of Ni Zhuo's news, because Eunuch Zhou had a close personal relationship with Ni Zhuo, and it was Ni Zhuo who introduced him to Eunuch Zhou. After the emperor was switched, he managed to Eunuch Zhou became a hero who was loyal to the emperor and protected him. Now Eunuch Zhou is regarded as a confidant by the emperor. Only Eunuch Zhou can know so many secrets.

As for why Eunuch Zhou did not reveal this information to himself, but told Ni Zhuo, there are two possibilities. One is that he had less contact with Eunuch Zhou, and Eunuch Zhou had no chance to tell him. The other possibility is that Eunuch Zhou was worried about what would happen if he told Eunuch Zhou. It would lead to conflicts between the emperor and his ministers. Although Eunuch Zhou was an eunuch, he was a discerning man. He knew that the Tang Dynasty was relying on him to survive. If he learned the truth and became discouraged and backed away, the Tang Dynasty would really be over.

All these things Ni Zhuo mentioned happened before everyone on our side fought the Japanese pirates from Gupo Mountain. Thinking of the court officials whom he had fought so hard to protect, harming him in every possible way, and thinking of the emperor whom he loyal to so desperately being suspicious of him, he just felt raw all over his body. Cold, full of sadness.

"If Duke Ji Guo hadn't been so concerned about the government affairs of the court, we would have been kept in the dark." Yu Yi sighed deeply.

"What I care about is not the government affairs of the court, what I care about is you who share the same goals with him." Ni Zhuo said seriously.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, "Master, Song Cai is here. He asked me to tell the master that the things you asked him to prepare are ready."

Ready."

"I know," Ni Zhuo replied casually and turned to look, "the soldiers have come a long way and it's a lot of hard work. Each of them has ten taels, just to take care of them."

I wanted to refuse, but Ni Zhuo raised his hand to stop him, "Come on, they are here sent by you to save my life. Compared with your face and mine, fifty thousand taels is nothing."

"Okay." Turning to look at Datou and the others, the four of them understood and immediately left their seats and stood up.

"Go ahead," Ni Chenyi stopped Datou and the others, and turned to Ni Zhuo, "Dad, they know nothing about Kunlun Immortal Palace. I just told them a little bit, but I don't know much.

, please tell them in detail again."

When Ni Zhuo nodded, Ni Chenyi waved to Datou and others to sit down again, "It's okay. Let Song Cai wait outside for a while. You all can stay and listen, so as not to have to explain it again in the future."

After Ni Chenyi finished speaking, the four of them looked at him at the same time, nodded, and then sat down again.

Ni Zhuo did not get directly to the topic, but said, "Although I am very dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty, the things I just said were not meant to provoke. I just want you to be aware of it."

Ni Zhuo paused briefly at this point and then said again, "There are no outsiders, so I will tell the truth. In fact, in my opinion, the Tang Dynasty is already terminally ill and there is no way to save it. Various signs also indicate that it is difficult to reverse the change of dynasty, but I do not

I won’t stop you from doing what you want to do. Not only will I not stop you, I will go all out to help you.”

After Ni Zhuo finished speaking, Yang Kai asked in a harmonious voice, "Sir, may I ask, why do you do it even though you know it's not possible?"

Ni Zhuo smiled and said, "Your prince is the person I admire most. No matter what he wants to do, I will fully support him. Even if the final result is not satisfactory, he can feel at ease. If you can really turn the tide and revive the Tang Dynasty,

That would be even more remarkable, and it will surely go down in history and be admired by all generations."

Yang Kai nodded and didn't ask any more questions. In fact, he already knew that the reason why the Ni family helped Datang was because of the

Help the Ni family and let Ni Zhuo take the opportunity to clarify his words.

Ni Zhuo solemnly said, "Young people should face difficulties when doing things. Winning a must-win battle is not a hero. Winning a must-lose battle is a hero. Put down your worries and do it boldly. No matter what the result is, as long as

If you dare to face difficulties, you have already won."

Hearing Ni Zhuo's words, all five people were moved. There is a reason why Ni Tuo became the richest man in the Tang Dynasty. His magnanimity and knowledge were far beyond those of ordinary people. If he were an ordinary elder, if he was not optimistic about something, he would definitely

He constantly poured cold water on them, said depressing words, and even threatened the younger generation to do what they wanted to do.

The reason why Ni Zhuo said this is to pave the way for what he is going to say next, because to talk about Kunlun Celestial Palace, we have to mention the background of the opening of Kunlun Celestial Palace, and every opening of Kunlun Celestial Palace is accompanied by the change of dynasties.

If we don't prepare the ground in advance, pouring this basin of cold water will definitely severely dampen the spirit and fighting spirit of others.

With the foreshadowing, Ni Zhuo no longer had any worries and went straight to the point and explained in detail.

Ni Zhuo loved collecting throughout his life and was also very interested in mysterious things. His understanding of Kunlun Celestial Palace was far beyond that of Ni Chenyi. With what Ni Chenyi had said before and Ni Zhuo filling in the gaps, everyone quickly became more familiar with Kunlun Celestial Palace and its guardians.

I have a general understanding of the body and spirit talisman. According to Ni Zhuo, every time the Kunlun Immortal Palace is opened, there are signs of visions. The mountain peak where the Immortal Palace is located will emit thousands of rays of rays of light three days before the Immortal Palace is opened, day and night, thousands of miles away.

It can be clearly seen outside.

Previously, each time the Immortal Palace was opened, the duration was not fixed, ranging from six or seven days to half a month, until the eighteen immortals each selected a suitable candidate and awarded him a protective talisman.

If you want to obtain a protective talisman, you must not only stay in a special fighting field for an hour, but also obtain the approval of the immortal during the subsequent discussion with the immortal. If you win the bloody battle but do not get the approval of the immortal, the immortal can still

If there are two more games, the person who was eliminated before can also be eliminated again. In the third game, no matter whether the winner is recognized by the immortal or not, the immortal must hand over the amulet.

There are eighteen competitions, from low to high. The first one is the competition for the nine protective bronze talismans. There are no restrictions on spiritual energy cultivation of the candidates. As long as they are not afraid of death, the light red cave god can also challenge the deep purple Taixuan.

, but as long as you participate in the selection of one of the immortals, no matter the outcome, you will not be able to participate in the selection of other immortals.

In order to prevent melee fighting before the competition, fighting is not allowed as long as you enter within ten miles of the Immortal Palace. As for the consequences of disobedience, it is still unknown, but under the eyes of the gods, it is estimated that no one dares to disobey the rules.

The function of the protective talisman is not limited to protecting one's body. It can also grant unlimited lifespan, which is what the world calls immortality. It is a different matter if someone is killed by other people who possess the talisman.

But the protective talisman also has shortcomings, that is, it cannot change the original spiritual energy cultivation level. Even if you get the protective golden talisman, your original spiritual energy cultivation level will still be the same. However, since you have unlimited lifespan, you can practice your qi calmly.

Continue to improve your spiritual energy cultivation.

In addition, once the protective talisman enters the body, it becomes one with one's own vitality. Once the talisman leaves the body, the vitality will be cut off immediately. To put it bluntly, once you grab this thing, you will not be able to regret it in the future, and you will not play with it if you want to hand it over.

Not even my son.

Furthermore, the talismans mentioned by Ni Chenyi can be fused with each other, but only at the same level. That is to say, the holder of the silver talisman cannot directly fuse one copper talisman, but can only fuse the silver talisman formed by the fusion of three copper talismans.

, and once the three copper talismans are melted into silver talismans, they cannot be separated again.

If the amulet leaves the body, the holder will die, but the amulet will not disappear and can be passed on to others.

After Ni Zhuo finished speaking, everyone frowned and no one answered.

"What do you think, should we rob or not?" Ni Chenyi looked at him.
