Daqing Hall, the monarch and ministers of the Song Dynasty were in the morning court.

An official who was quite literary and elegant stood in front of the steps, wearing the official uniform of the Tang Dynasty.

He wore a sling on his head, a gauze crown on his face, a wide-sleeved robe, a ribbon on his waist, and a clasp in his hand.

He is well-polite, neither arrogant nor humble, calm and gentle in manners, showing his style of a great country.

Zhao Ji also admired this minister of the Tang Dynasty because he was outstanding in appearance and unrestrained in style. He was Yu Shinan, who had a name on Lingyan Pavilion.

Of course, there is another more important reason. Yu Shinan is also a famous calligraphy master in the Six Dynasties.

Zhao Ji has been thinking about it for a long time. Today, he finally saw the real person. It would be strange if he was unhappy.

He seemed to have forgotten that there was a feud between the Tang and Song dynasties.

Seeing that the Song Emperor was very gentle, Yu Shinan thought that the Song Dynasty intended to ease relations between the two countries and deliberately showed weakness.

With confidence in his heart, he would naturally raise his conditions and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I have always had a good relationship with the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. However, the recent turmoil has been causing the Tang Dynasty to lose several mages. I wonder what your country has explained this?"

Zhao Ji was still smiling and didn't say anything. The officials below were prompted by Cai Jing, stepped forward and said, "I'm going to make this statement miserable."

The visitor was Lan Congxi, Cai Jing's number one confidant. He smiled and said, "The former's death of Zen Master Kuji has been concluded, and it is a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, and it has been decided by Buddhist Kashyapa. The latter's two masters, Bian Ji and Huicheng, are even fighting on the stage. Life and death are determined by fate, and it has been decided in advance."

"Why did this matter rise to the Tang and Song dynasties? I'm afraid it's a big deal."

Yu Shinan didn't expect that the emperor would smile and the people below were so tough.

How could he know that these ministers did not focus on the Song Dynasty, but first considered personal gains and losses.

Cai Jing was about to get involved in the army, and he wanted to cause trouble. He didn't believe that the Tang Dynasty would launch a large-scale attack, so he was so happy to have some friction.

The war between the Tang and Song dynasties was different from that of the Ming Cult, and this was a war that formally provoked two great powers.

The other four people don’t care about them, and the gods and Buddhas all over the sky don’t care about them. Cai Jing knows it, so he doesn’t panic.

Yu Shinan was used to being in a serious court like the Tang Dynasty and did not adapt to the rhythm of the Song Dynasty for a while. He didn't understand why the emperor smiled and his ministers spoke with swords.

He decided to observe first to avoid making mistakes in a hurry, so he coughed lightly and said, "I'd better state our requirements first, and ask your country to consider it before making plans."

"First, Li Yu must be handed over, and we will take him back to Chang'an and wait for the emperor to fall; second, release the debate machine and allow him to return to Chang'an and continue to practice in Da Zongchi Temple; third, return the brocade robes and be kept by Daxingshan Temple."

"If your country does not even recognize these basic requirements, then I cannot ask for instructions on this dynasty. At that time, the Tang Dynasty will personally make decisions for several mages in Chang'an."

Cai Jing smiled and Lan Congxi immediately understood it and said, "Please give me some advice!"

Please give me two words, and almost choked Yu Shinan to death. He left with his sleeves.

Zhao Ji was in the hall and suddenly spoke, "Secret Superintendent Yu stayed?"

When Yu Shinan heard this, he didn't dare to be careless, so he quickly turned around and bowed, "What are your instructions?"

"Su Wen Yu's secret secretary's pen is like a dragon and a snake, and he draws a silver hook. He might as well come to the palace another day to let me see it."

Yu Shinan was confused. Looking at the Emperor of Song in front of him, he finally understood how reliable his emperor was.

In the past, I always wanted to find fault if I had nothing to do, and I would like to make a mistake. It seems that I was too much and I would definitely be more tolerant of Your Majesty in the future. He is really a rare wise ruler.

After leaving the hall, Yu Shinan took a deep breath of the air outside the hall to calm down his mood, and carefully thought about what the emperor and ministers of the Song Dynasty meant.

He thought about it, but he couldn't imagine that he could not think of going together on both sides.

At this time, someone outside the hall saw it clearly.

In the Shenxiao Palace, the three pure statues, about a meter tall, were surrounded by green smoke, and the three immortals were floating in their clothes, as if they were about to fly away in the air.

Yuanshi Tianzun in the middle was twisting a Hunyuan bead, the Daode Tianzun held a Yin-Yang fan in his hand, and the Lingbao Tianzun on the right was holding a jade Ruyi.

Whether it is the robes on Sanqing's body or the magical instruments in his hand, they are all genuine silk embroidery and gold-inlaid jade. Their expressions are lifelike, revealing the ruthless distantness and mystery of the great way.

Under the statue of the Sanqing, there was a futon placed, and Lin Lingsu was sitting on the futon, meditating.

It was rare that he had not refined the alchemy. Li Yu came to the elixir room of Shenxiao Palace and rushed to the Sanqing Palace. Under the guidance of the Taoist boy, he came to the Sanqing Palace. After coming in, he said to Lin Lingsu directly: "Cai Jing intends to get involved in the imperial guards, so he must let Gao Qiu be optimistic about his family."

Lin Lingsu smiled and said, "I'm afraid you're too worried. The imperial guards have never allowed civil servants to intervene unless Cai Jing takes the initiative to give up the position of prime minister and become a military officer."

Li Yu shook his head and said, "Prince Lord, the civil servant does not interfere with the imperial guards. It is not a rule, but just a rule. And the rules are used to break them and will sooner or later be broken."

"He is so brave?"

Li Yu did not answer, but asked: "Before Cai Jing, did the prime minister be re-elected as a three-edition agent?"

Lin Lingsu shook his head. It was already the ultimate of the civil servants of the Song Dynasty, but Cai Jing had already been the prime minister eight times.

"How do you know he is going to intervene in the Imperial Army?"

Li Yu originally wanted to explain it, but then he thought that Lin Lingsu's sense of political smell was not very sensitive, and he probably might not be able to turn around if he thought about it for a long time.

Rather than explaining to him, it is better to say something mysterious.

Li Yu said in a deep voice: "I put a spy around Cai Jing, and his every word and action is in my control."

Lin Lingsu really no longer had suspicion, and was convinced that Li Yu's statement was believed to be involved in the imperial guards.

"What can I do if I do?"

Li Yu nodded and said, "Don't worry, if Cai Jing wants to get involved in the imperial guards, then he is the side that attacks, and he is the side that challenges the rules. As the defensive side, we have great advantages. Civilian officials cannot get involved in the imperial guards' rules, just like a solid city wall. We stick to this city wall and deal with Cai Jing's tricks and dispel his idea. Even if we win a great victory, in this process, we can also consume Cai Jing's strength and make him lose some vassals."

"This statement is not bad. Cai Jing has too many officials. Since he defeated Tong Guan and suppressed eunuchs, he has been the dominant family in the court. We are single and lonely, and there is only one Gao Qiu in the court. How can we compete with him?"

Li Yu smiled and said, "Then we will let the emperor take action. Isn't it easy to create a rift between the king and the prime minister?"

Since ancient times, the history of dynasties has been the history of the rise of imperial power and the whereabouts of ministerial power.

The prime minister is the emperor's most trustworthy minister and the emperor's most feared minister.

There is one reason, that is, this position is below one person and above ten thousand people.

Although Zhao Ji has no talent for governing the country, he has a great desire for power.

As long as he finds an opportunity to understand that Cai Jing's power has reached a point that he is difficult for him to control, then Zhao Ji will take action himself.

Who can he rely on to restrict Cai Jing? Do he rely on the court’s ministers and officials? Those people have long been the minions promoted by Cai Jing.

The only thing he could think of was Shenxiao Palace.

This force that was transcendent to the court was Zhao Ji's last trump card. After all, he was known as the Emperor of Taoism. Deep down in his heart, he still regarded Taoism as his own.

Unfortunately, the Taoist sect already felt that he, the Taoist Emperor, was a little unworthy.

Lin Lingsu and Li Yu looked at each other for a while, and after a moment, Youyou said, "If you pay more attention to the matter in the court, you will get the most benefits when you help the princess up."

"How do you say this?"

Lin Lingsu smiled and said, "You forgot what I told you?"

Li Yu suddenly realized that this old Taoist wanted Zhao Fujin to go a step further, and her biggest shortcut was to practice dual cultivation with her.

He wants to support a Taoist emperor, and he cares about the cultivation of this Taoist emperor, not whether she is a virgin.

Li Yu's Qingmu Art is the best shortcut for Zhao Fujin to reach the sky in one step. Otherwise, I'm afraid she will have to practice for many years before she can reach the threshold of Taoist Lord.

Lin Lingsu is not a very patient person. He has a shortcut to take, so he will not choose to wait for decades.

Things in the world are like chess, and the storms are changing. Who knows what the situation will be in decades? Especially after the great wise master Zhang Jiao broke the Tianmen, many talents emerged every few years.

Lin Lingsu frowned and said, "Speaking of this, you haven't seen Fu Jin after you come back, right? This is not possible. You have to get closer to her."

"She is still young, so it's not necessary to be too hasty."
