Some people in the palace also looked at Zhang Yu. When dealing with foreign enemies, Shouzheng had a great say. Not to mention that Zhang Yu, Shouzheng, was Chang She, and his status was even different, so his opinions were naturally very important.
After Zhang Yu entered the Shouzheng Palace, he learned a lot of things. He also read the records of the Qingtian Astrolabe.
This thing is mainly used to deal with various unpredictable magical weapons and methods. If it is operated at full strength, it can even predict disasters and evolve ways to avoid disasters. It can be regarded as an important defensive weapon.
Looking at it now, it is still difficult to determine whether there is really a person sneaking into the inner layer. It does not seem worthwhile to use this device for this matter.
Moreover, it is difficult to say whether Shang Chentian deliberately revealed this secret this time, so that they could use it after making a mistake in judgment and use it as a cover for the bigger actions to come.
However, he also had his own considerations. He raised his head and looked at everyone, but when he was about to speak, Zhu Yisheng said: "This matter is not a small matter. Zhu thinks that we should not make a hasty decision here. There will be a court meeting in two days.
It would be better if this matter were discussed in court."
Wu Qingxu glanced at him and said solemnly: "That's fine."
Seeing this, Zhang Yu said no more, and after explaining some trivial matters, he left the palace and returned to Shouzheng Palace.
After sitting down in the hall, he took out a letter from Jian Yuan Fei from his sleeve and said, "Let me ask you, who did you follow before you followed Su Wei?"
The letter shrank for a moment and said: "The villain used to follow Jin Xuanzun, but the villain was dull and upright. He was not as good at talking as the villain brother, and he was not valued by Jin Xuanzun, so I sent the villain here on this trip."
Zhang Yudao: "So, do the people in Youcheng regard this trip as dangerous?"
The letter said: "Yes, yes, it is very dangerous for everyone to go deep into the inner layer this time. Although the inner layer can avoid void and external evils, which is good for practice, but even if you successfully hibernate, you will have to suffer the consequences of Xuan Ting all day long."
How can we practice peace of mind when we are raided and suppressed?
And if things go wrong, Tian Xia will definitely be arrested, so no Xuanzun is really willing to come, that is, Su Xuanzun dares to be the first..."
Zhang Yu discovered that this letter contained a strong desire to talk. He only had to start the conversation and it would continue on its own, so he did not interrupt and heard a lot about the inside of Youcheng from these words.
things.
After writing the letter alone for almost half a summer, he spoke out: "Su Wei suffered a defeat this time. Have you ever conveyed the news back?"
"That's when..."
The letter suddenly froze, and then he hesitated: "No, no..."
Zhang Yu said calmly: "You don't have to deny that Youcheng kept you with Su Wei for key communications."
The letter's body trembled and he said: "Little, little man can't say..."
Zhang Yu understood that this Feishu was just a magical weapon after all, and would not betray its owner, nor could it be expected to be used by him. Judging from what the letter had just said, what he learned was also something not very important.
Said: "You just said that when you wait for summons, most of the time you send out the messenger light? Will your brothers react when you move?"
The letter said: "Yes, if you use slightly more complicated words, the villain will not be able to continue."
Zhang Yu hummed and said softly: "From now on, you will emit a rapid light every one or two breaths. You are not allowed to stop until I tell you to stop."
I didn't dare not write this letter, so I had to shrink into the corner of the palace, where the light kept shining.
After Zhang Yu took care of it, he no longer paid attention to the letter. He was regulating his breath and Qi. However, after a while, there was sudden movement in the Xuntian Daozhang. He paid attention to it and saw that it was Taoist Feng who was looking for him, so he asked: " Fellow Daoist Feng, is something wrong?"
Feng Dao Ren said: "The court meeting later, I heard from Chao Tingzhi, it was mainly about the operation of the clear sky astrolabe, but I don't know what Zhang Shouzheng meant?"
Zhang Yu did not hide anything and spoke his thoughts frankly, saying: "My intention is to use this thing."
Feng Taoist said: "But fellow Taoist, aren't you afraid that this is a bait set up by Shangchentian and Youcheng, just to ask me to use heavy weapons?"
Zhang Yudao: "I thought it was okay."
Taoist Feng asked cautiously: "Fellow Taoist, can you tell me the reason?"
Zhang Yudao: "Shangchentian ordered the monks to sneak into the inner layer this time. When did fellow Taoist Feng think this person started such a plan?"
Feng Dao Ren said: "It was very early. If we infer from the lower level that was first invaded, this generation should have laid the plan two hundred years ago or earlier.
Zhang Yudao: "But after they started, they seemed extremely hasty. In fact, they could have done better."
The Feng Daoist thought for a moment and admitted what Zhang Yuzhi said. This time, the monks from the outer layer sneaked into the inner layer. It was obvious that they were not fully prepared. Apart from anything else, even if it was only a short time for this generation to move from the lower layer to the upper layer. If it had been half a day earlier, the results might have been completely different.
Zhang Yudao: "They could have done better, but why are they so eager to do it?"
The Feng Taoist thought for a while and said: "It must be because of the Heaven-training Daoist seal established by fellow Taoist, this generation has been restrained everywhere in recent months, even the lower level was taken back by me. If they didn't activate it first, I’m afraid I won’t have a chance in the future.”
Zhang Yudao: "Since I took up the post of Shouzheng, I have read many battle records in the past four hundred years. In the first hundred years of confrontation, Shang Chentian actually did not suffer much, and even had some advantages in some places. Intrusions into the inner layer happened from time to time, and the fighting was really fierce at that time.
But the further you get to the back, the smaller the advantage of Shangchentian becomes. Even if the turbid tide arrived seventy or eighty years ago and Youcheng escaped, they could not make a comeback. Why is this?"
The Feng Taoist thought deeply.
Zhang Yu continued: "The promotion of Xuanfa at the beginning greatly increased the strength of Tianxia's middle and lower levels, which firmly supported the situation, while the upper levels were able to deal with foreign enemies with all their strength. Coupled with the successive appearances of Hunzhang Xuanzun, even if Shangchentian Plus Youcheng, it can't beat Tianxia.
In fact, the biggest mistake Shang Chentian made was that he still looked at me, Tianxia, with the same eyes as in the past, still using the same tactics that had been planned for hundreds of years.
Perhaps in their eyes, hundreds of years are not a long time, because in ancient Xia, there may not be any changes for hundreds of years and thousands of years. Although a monk retreats, it is true that the years have changed and the world has changed, but the entire ancient Xia world is still the same. Very changeable.
But as everyone knows, today's Tianxia is different from ancient Xia. It is always advancing and rising, so the plans they arrange can never keep up with the changes."
The Feng Taoist also nodded. Hundreds of years is not a long time for a Taoist cultivator. As Zhang Yu said, in the past, true cultivators could just retreat for tens or hundreds of years, let alone relatively long-term plans.
But if you have made some plans in the past and put a certain amount of effort into them, you can't just abandon them. You always have to give them a try.
From the perspective of those upper-class cultivators who live for thousands or even thousands of years, victory or defeat does not depend on the moment, but on the final success or failure.
This idea is correct, but now Tianxia...
When he thought about this, he suddenly realized that he was one of those who had a long life, but he had never thought like monk Gu Xia.
Not only him, but also the court officials around him are not like this.
Although there are disputes among the imperial officials, there are still some conservative and stubborn people, but most of them are seeking change and trying to push the entire humanity forward, like people like Guo Zhen, the Xuanshou of Yiluo Shangzhou
, and in the end could only end up being imprisoned.
But if he were in heaven, his actions would be the most natural thing to do.
This may be the real difference between Tianxia and Shangchen Tianyoucheng and others. He used to think that this was just the result of Tianxia being more orderly than these external forces, but now it seems that it is not just the case.
Zhang Yudao: "Fellow Daoist Feng, no matter whether the outer monks try to trick me into moving the clear sky star chart this time, I say there is no need to worry about it at all.
Not to mention sixty years, even six years later, my Tianxia will be different from the present. What is the use of the plan that this generation made early?"
In his opinion, as long as they continue to push Tian Xia forward and never stop, then the arrangements made by Shang Chen Tian will always be aimed at Tian Xia in the past, and these differences will make this generation never
Perhaps achieving the goal will only serve as a push for Tianxia to move forward.
At this moment, Taoist Feng felt a sense of excitement. He looked at the vast sea of sky, earth, and clouds outside the Taoist palace and said, "Feng Mou understands the meaning of fellow Taoist."
Two days later, the sound of chimes sounded above the sea of clouds, and the various ministers appeared one by one on the long river of light. The main discussion this time was how to deal with the invasion of external forces.
After discussing various matters, the question of whether to use the Clear Sky Astrolabe to observe the inner layers was brought up.
The first Taoist looked at Taoist Zhong and said, "Zhong Tingzhi, what do you think is going on now? Is it possible to find any clues to this person's existence?"
Zhong Daoren stood up and said: "Reporting to Chief Zhi, there is always a trace of inconsistency in the previous calculations, so it is Zhong who has the above doubts. Only whether this person exists, Zhong does not
Not entirely sure.”
Dai Gonghan said: "Among the three people who have been identified, two have retreated and one has been captured. But so far, the secret is still unclear, and there is no sign of stopping on the other side. What are they covering up? Is it just to cover up the possible existence?
Where is this person?"
Chen Tingzhi asked at this time: "Zhong Tingzhi, you said you need to make another calculation. I wonder how long it will take this time?"
Zhong Daoren had already considered this matter and solemnly replied: "It will take another half month to more than a month, and the longest will not exceed thirty-five days."
Chen Tingzhi said: "By then, will there be a clear result?"
Zhong Daoren shook his head and said: "Zhong can't guarantee it."
Chen Tingzhi nodded. He looked at the first Taoist priest and said, "Chief, Chen thinks that the internal security is very important. Instead of waiting for an uncertain result, it is better to settle people's hearts early."
