The brocade palace fell down so quickly that it left one tongue-tied, but the way the empress dowager lost was so bizarre.

The important figures of the Yan Kingdom"s imperial court had considered the matter for so long but still hadn"t come up with a plan to get rid of the empress dowager.

Did she have any brilliant plans to bring the empress dowager down?

Of course not. Even An Zaiyue himself could not refute him if he said that he had stumbled upon an accident.

But the feud has indeed changed a country and is rewriting a history.

The empress dowager had died from the warmth of Su Qing, and the venomous old Zhuge Liuyun had died. However, the battle had not ended, it was only the beginning.

On the sixth day after Su Qing"s warm death, a group of officials led by Chen Zaiyan, welcomed Ye Yun and her son into the brocade palace.

All the courtiers expected harmony without the slightest sound of disgust.

This short period of time after the brocade palace fell was the honeymoon period between the Heavenly Awakening Sect and the great clans.

There was nothing to do. He rejected all requests to hold office, including the va.s.sal of the Imperial Guard, General Ying Yang, who was the fourth rank of the Board of Soldiers, and even the deputy minister of the Ministry of Justice.

An Zaiyue"s achievements could have left a strong impression on the history books of Yan Guo, but those officials had also sent out an unprecedented number of requests for an official promotion.

At the beginning, it was definitely not hostility, but roping him in.

After this incident, the influence of the Heavenly Awakening Sect grew stronger and stronger. Countless people rushed over, their momentum almost surpa.s.sing that of the Supreme Dao Palace.

Meanwhile, the imperial court was abuzz with activity, while An Zhe sat in the small garden of the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect, lost in thought with a single person.

""Although there isn"t an official successor yet, but Xiao Qitao has already given four orders in a row, as if he was a real person.""

The first was to use a thousand miles to send an edict to the general to stop the war against Youguo. General Fang was requested to consider the situation at his discretion and either hold on to the land he had acquired or return with the victories.

It was good that Xiao Qidao had given Fang"s confidant absolute power.

Second, Auntie Ye was already the empress dowager.

Third, I will make you the supreme king.

""The fourth letter is from the First Republic.""

An Zaiyue peeled an orange and handed it to Mu Changyan, who was sitting on the deck chair in the sun. Mu Changyan took the orange and stuffed it into her mouth with a mechanical stiffness.

An Xuan wiped the corner of Mu Changyan"s mouth with a handkerchief and said, ""There are many things that I understand later. The reason why you can"t activate the Mu Family"s Imperial Protecting Formation is actually because of Zhuge Liuyun.""

He destroyed your bloodline power with poison, how did you activate that huge array?

""The Mu Clan"s Jiang Shan is also from the Mu Clan. However, Xiao Qidao"s current situation is slightly more stable than when you ascended the throne.""

Mu Changyan opened her mouth and said, ""Still … still able to eat.""

An Zhan peeled another tangerine for Mu Changyan, ""Little Liu"er said that the poison in your body was nothing. She took out the silver needle and the Gu worm was sucked out by her golden silkworm, but it hurt your brain.""

Whether you can recover in the future will depend on your willpower.

""Nie Qing is better than you because his psychokinesis is stronger than yours and his willpower is stronger than yours. By the time we found him, he already relied on himself to kill quite a few Gu worms.""

""Originally, those people wanted to kill Nie Qing. Although Nie Qing is also a victim, you are under Nie Qing"s control.""

When I asked Nie Qing where he wanted to go, he said the eastern border.

""Even if General Fang has withdrawn his troops, it must have been extremely difficult for him to do so. Therefore, if he wants to go to the battlefield, even if he dies, he must die on the battlefield.""

An Zhan handed the oranges to Mu Changyan. ""Just stay in the Heavenly Awakening Sect and raise them properly. Actually, you"ve already done well enough.""

""I feel that if your big brother was still alive, he would also be proud of you.""

Hearing the two words" big brother ", Mu Changyan"s eyes lit up. ""Big brother …""

He stuffed the oranges that Ansheng had handed him into his clothes with great difficulty, causing him to be covered in juice.

""Why don"t you eat?""

""Keep it … for big brother.""

An Zeng"s heart ached. He pointed to his side and said, ""There"s a lot more. Eat it, I"ll peel it for you when you"re done.""

""Keep it for your big brother as well. It won"t be any less.""

Mu Changyan shook her head. ""For big brother.""

His hand was not yet under control, and his grip was not strong enough. The orange had shattered when it was thrust in.

However, he was very satisfied. His eyes were filled with light.

And Anthea rose up, and commanded that he should be taken care of.

He was preparing to head out to the Martial Arts Academy. Right now, the only position left in An Zhe"s body was the dean of the Martial Arts Academy.

Chang Huan had already left, and Huotang had yet to recover from the disaster.

Although the Martial Arts Academy had gradually gained some life, it was still not as prosperous as it was before.

Right now, even Du slender Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye were instructors in the Martial Arts Academy, so they were full of energy.

The head eunuch of the Heavenly Temple, An Chengli, was sitting in a carriage when he arrived at the gates of the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect. When he saw An Xuan walking out, he hurriedly got off the carriage and greeted him. ""Your servant greets Young Master.""

An Zhe pulled him over, ""Stop bulls.h.i.tting, why are you here?""

An Chengli smiled and said, ""It was Your Majesty that ordered this servant to come. I urged this servant to come several times, but even if it was a bit slower, it still wouldn"t work.""

The day after tomorrow was the grand ceremony for the Emperor to succeed the throne. The King had sent his servants over to inform the Prince, so he must not forget about it.

""The king said that he was not at peace without you.""

An Xuan said, ""How could I have forgotten?""

An Chengli asked, ""Where are you going?""

""Martial Arts Academy?""

Ann nodded.

An Chengli sighed and said, ""There are so many important seats but you didn"t take them. You just left the position of the dean of the Martial Arts Academy.""

At this point of time, he would be able to occupy one more seat. Otherwise, he would be robbed by those people.

""The more people we can talk to in the imperial court, the less they dare to act presumptuously. At the very least, they won"t act presumptuously in public.""

""You"re right, but I"d better stay outside.""

If I were a court official, how would I fight a displeased person if he saw something he disliked?

Don"t think about it, there are already a thousand or eight hundred people in the Heavenly Awakening Sect. It wouldn"t be a good thing if I held more power in the imperial court.

If I make a mistake, Xiao Qidao … will the King punish me?

If not, then the power of the throne is not strong and the laws of the country are not clear.

Those people will think of a way to give me the script, the King doesn"t want to annoy me too.

""I"m in the martial arts world, much better than in the imperial court.""

An Chengli said, ""That"s true … Right, the other personnel didn"t encounter any obstacles.""

The king crippled the previous two prime ministers and Chen Zaiyan became the only prime minister.

Tantai worked for the Board of Justice, w.a.n.g Kai-tai worked for the Board of Soldiers, and Gu Chao, who was also a college student and an inspector, forcibly s.n.a.t.c.hed another deputy minister of the Department of Revenue from the hands of those people.

Although it"s only a temporary replacement, it"ll recover in the future. ""

An Zaiyue then said, ""This way, we will be more stable. After the war ends, we will be able to rest and recuperate. As long as there are no accidents, everyone will live a peaceful life.""

An Chengli said, ""There"s one thing that"s very dangerous … Before the empress dowager died, she discussed an agreement with a tribe on the prairie. Although she didn"t sign it, these prairie barbarians still used this as an excuse to send us a letter of credence.""

They said that Her Majesty had promised them the Iron Ore of Swallow Mountain, and that they had exchanged fifty thousand horses for it.

If we don"t give the Swallow Mountain Iron Ore away, they will gather their forces and head south.

""There"s no need to worry about the Swallow School.""

In this way, General Fang Dao is invited to inspect the Yan Men Pa.s.s and brighten up our att.i.tude.

Not to mention fifty thousand war horses, even five hundred thousand war horses couldn"t be given to them.

Once the prairie people had the iron ore, they would be like a dragon flying in the sky. At that time, not only the Yan Country would be affected, but the entire Central Plains would also suffer disaster.

The prairie is so big, it"s not any worse than the Great Xi. ""

An Chengli replied, ""I"ll tell the King when we get back. That servant will take her leave first.""

""Go on, take care of the king for me.""

An Chengli said, ""Of course. Right now, I feel great about my work and my hands and feet are much more agile.""

An Zeng laughed out loud. When he turned around and was about to head to the Martial Arts Academy, he saw a young monk wearing a snow-white monastic robe standing at the corner of the street.

That day at the Embroidery Palace, if it wasn"t for this monk"s help, they wouldn"t have succeeded.

Mu Qidao did not forget the Monk"s benefits and sent people to look for him, asking him what he wanted as a reward.

And the monk said, Build a temple in one acre of land.

This was definitely not an excessive request, so he immediately accepted it.

""Master.""

An Zeng walked over and bowed.

The monk shook his head, ""Just call me the monk of the Palace. Besides, you are the n.o.bleman now, how could I dare to accept your courtesy.""

""The Buddhist Sect says that all living things are equal.""

The monk said, ""If they are equal, why be so polite?""

""I can"t beat you, Master, what are you looking for me for?""

The monk said, ""You have magic on you.""

An Zeng was stunned, and he subconsciously looked at the Blood Pearl bracelet on his wrist.

The monk smiled, ""But I"ve seen it before, so it won"t affect you for the time being. It"s not a bad thing.""

However, the Devil was by his side, and the other side was affected by it.

""As long as your heart is calm and firm, you will not be taken advantage of by the Devils.""

An Zhe thought of Chen Shaobai and his father. This time, Chen Shaobai did not help. He didn"t know if something was wrong with the Cang Man Mountain.

The monk said, ""Man is stronger than the devil, but the devil is not afraid.

It"s not good for you to be nosy and train less.

""If you are willing …""

An Zhan shook his head. ""I"m not willing.""

The monk was stunned. ""How do you know what I want to say?""

""I don"t want to shave my head. I don"t want to drink or eat meat. I don"t want to get married and have no children. I don"t want to drink too much and be boastful.""

He said, ""Just thinking about it makes me feel bad.""

The monk sighed: ""If you are willing to enter the buddhist faith, then you will be in the diamond phase.""

""I can"t enter the Buddhist sect, but I can still do good deeds. Great Master, why are you so persistent?""

The monk: ""You won"t consider it again?""

""If Master is willing to drink and eat meat with me in the future, I can consider it.""

The monk was silent for a while, then he nodded his head seriously: ""If you can enter the buddhist faith, I promise you.""

""Why don"t you play your cards according to common sense?""

""Forget it, pretend I never said anything …""

The monk shook his head. ""Where are you going?""

""Martial Arts Academy, see my master.""

""Your master?""

""Yes.""

A girl called Huodan Tang appeared in An Ying"s mind. No matter what, he was her disciple.

Even though he was the first cla.s.s protector of the kingdom, the dean of the Martial Arts Academy, and the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Apostle Sect, he was still a disciple of Huo Tang.

In Du"s thin words, a teacher for a day, a mother for a lifetime.

The monk said, ""I want an acre of land to build a temple.

To the Buddhist Sect, this place was still a desert.

""Right, there"s something I haven"t told you. You didn"t ask me, so I forgot … In the Magnificent Embroidery Palace, do you know why I helped you?""

""I don"t know.""

""Because of one person, her name is Xu Meidao …""

An Zhan"s expression changed, and he forced a smile.

The monk said, ""She is currently in the western Buddhist country. Coincidentally, I am about to travel out of the Kingdom of Gold to meet her. She asked me to come to the Yan Kingdom to see you.""

Seeing that no one believed in Buddhism here, he felt terrified, so he decided to stay.

""But if you want to build a temple, no matter what, you must not lack worldly possessions. That is also, silver taels.""

""I"ll do it.""

The monk shook his head, ""No need, I made it myself.""

""Huh?""

""Did you forget that I took the money from the brocade palace?""

""Sigh … This is the first time that a monk has lied to another person. However, the money needed to build a temple is sufficient.""

""I don"t think you have any regrets.""

The monk: ""Why should I regret it?""

""Monk can"t lie, can"t he? If he raises his head, there"s a G.o.d, then Buddha will see.""

""He looks at me. I don"t look at him.""

The monk turned around and walked away. ""Everyone is pretending not to know, Buddha isn"t stupid …""

An Zeng sighed, ""You don"t look like a proper monk either."""
