Chapter 138 The last come first As expected, the King of Qin has a considerable financial background. Jiang Lin nodded thoughtfully. If one wants to rebel, cultivators alone are not enough, or in other words, cultivators are not the main force in this kind of matter, after all, this is the mundane world of the mortal world. If a cultivator wants to interfere with the succession of the throne, he is simply courting death. Even if Jiang Lin could ignore the current emperor's aura to a certain extent, it was impossible for him to directly lead the King of Qin to kill the old emperor. This is different from the sword that Jiang Lin used above the Golden Palace. Because Jiang Lin was also very clear that with one sword strike, this level of "offense" would not affect the emperor's dragon energy to any extent Jiang Lin, a direct descendant of the Arctic. But if it were more intense, for example, if Jiang Lin directly helped the King of Qin to ascend to the throne, the emperor's dragon aura would definitely suppress Jiang Lin. After all, the Son of Heaven's dragon energy must protect the emperor. Even if it was Jiang Lin, with one sword, the Son of Heaven's dragon energy would only block it and there would be no further attack. That's the best we can do.
But for other practitioners, the emperor's dragon energy is completely untouchable. Even if you want to participate in this matter, you will take great risks. The most unacceptable point is that one must not excessively interfere in the struggles between mortals. The most one can do is to fight with the other party's practitioners. This is the bottom line that cannot be broken. Otherwise, the nations in the Southern Continent would be in chaos. In other words, Jiang Lin, Miaoqing and Baihua's opponents are the priests of the imperial palace. And to put it bluntly, whether Jiang Lin and his men win or lose in the fight against the imperial palace priests, it has little to do with the final outcome of who will be the emperor... In a nutshell, this is ultimately a struggle in the world of mortals. In fact, if we follow what has been said above, there is no need for practitioners to fight each other. After all, it is meaningless. Even if they win, it will do more harm than good to the practitioners themselves. In other words, in today's world, the boundary between mortals and practitioners has become extremely blurred, and practitioners can even play a marginal role. That's why it is necessary to stop the opponent's practitioners. Otherwise, if you are not careful and fall into some trick, the consequences will be catastrophic for mortals. To put it bluntly, the practitioners in this matter are like mushroom bombs. Both sides are confronting each other and neither wants to use them. At the same time, it is also the last insurance. "Inside the palace, there must be a cultivator who will intervene in the mortal war at all costs." The King of Qin sighed. This was also the situation he feared the most before. If it really happened, no, it would definitely happen. At that time, Baihua and others would not be able to stop it. But now it is different. With Taoist Master Jiang and Taoist Master Miaoqing, King Qin is no longer afraid of this. "Those are the little things." Jiang Lin said: "The focus now..." He looked at Baihua and asked, "How many people can the prince mobilize in the three camps?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Baihua said without hesitation: "If we start a rebellion, we can mobilize about 800 fully armored cavalrymen, and the rest will be used to contain the three camps of royalists." This is normal. If these three camps are all Qin Wang's men, then there is no need for any plans. It was already an extremely exaggerated thing to be able to draw out 800 available soldiers, and they were fully armored cavalry, while ensuring that the three major camps of royalists did not move. Jiang Lin nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Besides that?" Eight hundred cavalrymen? To be honest, it's not enough. Mr. Baihua smiled and said, "The palace's Chen Dajian is old, and he is looking for a successor, who will also be the next emperor's attendant." "The three candidates now hold power in the inner palace, and two of them are the prince's men." "Among them, one is in charge of the Imperial Horse Department. I dare not say that he can follow the prince to raise an army, but he will respond a little slower, which is no problem." "The other one is in charge of the Imperial Kitchen. Poisoning the emperor is something that cannot be done. After all, the emperor is not a fool." "However, in order to demonstrate his great favor, the Emperor ordered the Imperial Kitchen Department to be responsible for the meals of the eight generals of the Imperial Palace." "In other words, when the prince raises an army, he can ensure that the eight commanders of the eight gates of the imperial palace will remain silent." Good guy, Jiang Lin exclaimed. Good guy. The King of Qin is very capable and can even interfere with the inner palace. This is not a small amount of difficulty. Bai Hua continued with a smile, "Besides that, the 120 soldiers of the Qin Palace can guarantee their absolute loyalty." "In addition, there are also some people in the outer court and the six ministries, but their positions are not high. However, if they can succeed in the end, they can be promoted on the spot and it won't be a problem to stabilize the situation temporarily." Jiang Lin listened and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Your Majesty, you are not the only one who needs me to take your place, right?" It’s no wonder that Jiang Lin was so surprised, because the surprise given by the King of Qin was really a bit too big. King Qin smiled reservedly, stroking the purple jade taboo on his belt, and sighed: "Since ten years ago, I have been making these arrangements, and I have done them once, with almost no obstacles or difficulties. Even if there are, it only takes a little time." “It’s like being protected by the heavens.” "Not as if." Jiang Lin corrected with a smile: "From the current point of view, unless the emperor can invite the Jade Emperor to support him, otherwise, the prince will be destined to succeed." This is absolutely true. Practitioners cannot interfere too much in the succession of the throne in the human world, but it is obvious that the emperor who sits high in the Purple Palace is not included. Jiang Lin’s own emperor chose the King of Qin in front of him. This is destiny. "Having said that, I don't think this will make me arrogant and think that everything is under control, and thus stop working hard." The King of Qin said solemnly: "If you don't take what Heaven gives you, you will suffer the consequences. However, Heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman should constantly strive to improve himself." "Even if destiny is with me, if I don't fight and strive for it, destiny will be disappointed in me sooner or later."
Jiang Lin couldn't help but nodded. This may be the reason why the Emperor chose the King of Qin. The prince is very clear-headed and knows exactly what he should do. He will take the initiative to fight, grab and seize. Instead of starting to indulge in fantasies just because you have a destiny. Destiny is not immutable. "In addition to what Mr. Baihua just said, there is also..." The King of Qin took out a jade token and placed it in Jiang Lin's hand with great care. "In addition to Mr. Baihua and the other two practitioners who serve in the palace, there are 38 people in secret. These practitioners only recognize this order and this king." "Now, these 41 practitioners are entrusted to the Taoist priest. All arrangements will be made by the Taoist priest." The King of Qin took two steps back and bowed to Jiang Lin. "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, there will be no mistakes." Jiang Lin also nodded seriously. He knew that the King of Qin was handing over the family fortune to him. Miao Qing stood behind Jiang Lin, her eyes sparkling, and she couldn't help asking, "When are we going to rebel?" "Tonight?" Hearing this, Jiang Lin looked at her strangely and said, "Of course not." "what?" Miao Qing blinked in disappointment and said, "So it's not now?" She originally thought that the King of Qin was showing off his family background and sending the Jade Order, which meant that he was preparing to start a rebellion tonight. "Master Miaoqing, not now." The King of Qin smiled and said, "If you want to start a rebellion, you have to wait for a good opportunity." "Although we have taken care of everything, the little wealth we have now is still not enough compared to the emperor's." It takes time for the three camps and 800 people to enter the capital, and the 120 cavalrymen of the Qin Palace also seem a bit shabby. The Imperial Stables will not move immediately, but they will not stay still either. The chief generals of the Eight Gates Imperial Guards were silent, but they also had deputy generals. Therefore, the wealth in the hands of the King of Qin is only enough for one chance, and only this one chance. If there is any mistake and the emperor reacts, it will be a disaster. Although the current emperor has many minor flaws, he is still a talented ruler at heart. Therefore, the King of Qin needed an opportunity, an opportunity to strike hard. There can't be any mistakes.
"what chance?" Miaoqing asked curiously. Hearing this, King Qin and Jiang Lin looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding. This scene is like an old fox and a little fox. "Naturally..." The King of Qin started the conversation, and then Jiang Lin took over. "Those who come later will come first." After saying that, the two foxes, one big and one small, laughed again, with a sense of being in cahoots with each other. "what are you guys saying?" Miaoqing blinked in confusion; she didn't quite understand. Jiang Lin smiled and explained, "The case of the ghost fetus in Hangzhou did not end with King Song." "Finally, all doubts are in Kyoto." "It is obvious that the mastermind behind this is the emperor, and the emperor must have his own purpose in doing this." "No matter what the emperor wants to do, he will ultimately rely on extraordinary power." "Besides, it's probably not going to be anything good." At this point, Jiang Lin looked at King Qin and said, "I was not so sure about this originally, but the appearance of the prince made me sure of this." The King of Qin also laughed and said, "If the Emperor had not been prepared to do something contrary to the law, this destiny would not have fallen on my head." In fact, the cause and effect relationship is very simple. It is not that the Emperor of Ziwei gave up the current emperor, but that the current emperor himself gave up his destiny. Although we still don’t know what the emperor is going to do, it is obvious that what the emperor is going to do will be extremely harmful, which is something the emperor does not want to see. Therefore, the destiny shifted to the King of Qin. So what Jiang Lin and the King of Qin have to do now is actually very simple. They should continue to accumulate strength and wait until the emperor's plan is launched, stop him at that critical juncture, and directly launch an army when everything is about to become chaotic. "It's that simple?" Miao Qing sighed in disappointment, "I thought he would break into the palace tonight like Emperor Taizong of Tang did." "The Xuanwu Gate Incident required the right time, right place, and right people. We don't have those conditions now." The King of Qin is now certain that this Taoist Master Miaoqing is somewhat afraid that the world will not be in chaos. He said: "Now, the destiny is in my hands, the timing is natural, and with the two Taoist priests by my side, there will be no hindrance between man and nature." "Only the advantage of the terrain requires the emperor to reveal a flaw."
King Qin raised his eyes and looked towards the throne of Emperor Ziwei. "Geographical advantages are not just about land, but also about the people's hearts..." ………… After having a frank talk in the quiet room, Jiang Lin and Miao Qing settled down in the palace. Of course, it couldn't be just one room. Jiang Lin sat cross-legged on the big bed, looking at the exquisite etchings on the headboard with a thoughtful look on his face. "I should be able to take this bed away now, right?" After all, it is now certain that the King of Qin is 100% one of their own, and not the sugar-coated bullet that Jiang Lin originally thought. In this case, the King of Qin has a large family and great wealth, so I don't think he would be stingy with a bed... I'll go tell the prince tomorrow. After all, taking something without permission is stealing... Jiang Lin was thinking so and was about to lie down when he suddenly felt a heat in his waist. "Ok?" Jiang Lin touched his belt with some doubt, and took out a talisman. The red lines on the talisman were glowing. This is a communication talisman that was given to him by Fellow Daoist Chen when they were in Taisu Palace before. Fellow Daoist Chen, do you have something to talk to me about? Jiang Lin activated the communication talisman swiftly. "boom." With a slight sound, the talisman in his hand ignited without fire, but it burned very slowly. At the same time, a voice sounded. "Fellow Daoist Jiang, three things." Chen Qingning's voice came from the communication talisman. "I am listening." Jiang Lin nodded, maintained the infusion of magic power, and sat up straight. Chen Qingning's voice continued to sound. "The real fetus is very good and different from ordinary people. It is now no different from a five or six-year-old child." "Mr. Liu plans to take the child home after the Zhongyuan Festival, and the ancestors also agree. After all, the child will have to come into contact with the world of the world no matter what." Hearing this, Jiang Lin nodded. This did not surprise him. The true fetus was born, and it was the reincarnation of Dongmingxingjun, so he definitely came with a "mission". Combining what happened with the King of Qin, Jiang Lin already had a very reasonable guess.
If the reincarnation of Dongmingxingjun wanted to catch up with the Qin King's rebellion, it would be impossible for it to grow up little by little like an ordinary fetus. If that really happens, the daylily will be cold by then. But...it's the Ghost Festival... Jiang Lin silently calculated and found that it was true. Five days after today, it would be the Ghost Festival. He was a little dazed. He had either been on the road or had something to do during this period and had completely forgotten about time. Moreover, the Ghost Festival is very important to me. Jiang Lin came back to his senses and asked, "What about the second thing?" "The second thing." Chen Qingning's voice continued to ring out: "My great grandfather asked me to tell you that after you finish your business in Kyoto, please be sure to go to Dayue Taihe Palace in Wudang Mountain." "Go to Taihe Palace?" Jiang Lin was stunned when he heard this. The Zhenwu lineage is very popular, but there is only one ancestral temple, which is the Taihe Palace on Wudang Mountain, which is also the legendary place where the real body of Zhenwu Emperor is located. Of course, this is just a legend. How could an existence like the Great Emperor Zhenwu stay in the human world forever? However, there is no doubt that Taihe Palace is the ancestral temple of Zhenwu and the place where the great emperor Zhenwu resided after he descended to the human world. Although he didn't understand the meaning, it was obvious that Chen Qingning didn't know either. Jiang Lin didn't hesitate or ask any more questions. He just nodded in agreement. "I've made note of it. I'll definitely go there when I'm done with this matter." "Well, there is a third thing that I am going to tell you on my own initiative..." Chen Qingning was a little hesitant. "It's related to Yunxiu." (End of this chapter)
