The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 545 Empress Xiao, Su Daji

In the room, Zhang Jiuyang slowly opened his eyes, his gaze was exceptionally bright.

It was not until this moment that he was completely relieved. Having Lu Zu's precious edict at his side was like having a killer weapon that would be invincible.

No matter what means the emperor used in the capital, he was fearless.

If we fall out, the worst that can happen is that we'll just overturn the table.

Of course, he would not be so extreme before the situation developed to that point. After all, Daqian had been established for more than 600 years. Although people's livelihood was in decline and corruption was rampant, it had not yet reached the final step.

If he really killed the emperor, both Longhu Mountain and the Yue family would be in a very embarrassing situation.

More importantly, he also wanted to use this trump card to deal with Tianzun.

The emperor seems to be powerful and high above everyone else, but the pressure he brings to him is still much less than that of the Heavenly Lord. He is confident that he can solve it by his own means.

"It looks like you've gained a lot this time."

Yue Ling knew him too well. Compared with before, Zhang Jiuyang now had undergone some subtle changes and became more calm and composed.

Zhang Jiuyang nodded and smiled: "It's all thanks to you. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I would have to wait a long time."

The emperor wanted to ban Mr. Liaozhai's books, but fortunately Yue Ling stepped forward and was willing to contradict the emperor in order to keep this way of collecting incense for him.

When Xu Liuyun went to destroy Lu Zu's reputation under the guise of a painted skin, it was Yue Ling who insisted on tracking him down and posted a notice to tell the people that someone was committing the crime under his name.

In this way, although the speed at which Zhang Jiuyang received incense became slower, it did not stop, and today's success was achieved naturally.

"Next, I plan to devote all my efforts to finding the imperial seal. Ling'er, do you have any clues in this regard?"

Zhang Jiuyang asked.

The Imperial Seal is very important to him now. Not only can it summon the ghosts and gods in the Penglai Palace, it is also the target of Tianzun. Most importantly, it is most suitable for refining the Yangping Zhidu Seal.

If he could use the imperial seal as a prototype to forge the Longhu Mountain's treasured seal, I believe it would be so powerful that it would give him a huge surprise.

After hearing Zhang Jiuyang's words, Yue Ling thought about it seriously, but shook her head and said, "After returning to Beijing, I asked people to investigate, and I also went to the Tianji Pavilion to look through ancient books, but unfortunately... I found nothing."

Zhang Jiuyang was not surprised. The imperial seal was so mysterious. From the ancient emperor to the founding emperors of later dynasties, it always appeared briefly and disappeared mysteriously.

The Immortal Master Guiguzi slaughtered all the real dragons in the world and drew the dragon energy into the seal, giving it incredible divine power and even giving birth to its own consciousness.

It even managed to escape from the hands of the Heavenly Lord six hundred years ago on its own.

It would be strange if Yue Ling could find clues so easily.

"It seems that we still have to start with the Moon Goddess."

Zhang Jiuyang analyzed: "Although I don't know why she suddenly sneaked into the Yue Mansion and came to me to cooperate in finding the imperial seal, I think she must have grasped a very critical clue in her hand."

Yue Ling's eyes flickered, and she nodded, "Yes, being able to get her to leave the palace in person is definitely not just a test. I think there must be something about you that attracts her and forces her to seek cooperation with you."

Normally speaking, even if Yue Shen wanted to find someone to cooperate with, she should give priority to people in Huangquan. Why would she go directly to Zhang Jiuyang?

This is so abnormal.

"I guess she must have found the whereabouts of the Imperial Seal, but she wants to go further and needs my help, so she wants to use her charm to confuse me and get me to do things for her."

Having said that, Yue Ling and Zhang Jiuyang raised their eyes and looked at each other at the same time, uttering three words in unison.

"Yuding Palace!"

At that time, Zhang Jiuyang's reputation was not as prominent as it is now. The only thing he could show off that made Yue Shen personally take action and make a special trip was his identity as the heir of Yu Ding. In other words, the clues of the jade seal in Yue Shen's hands were related to Yu Ding Palace or Yu Ding magic.

A smile appeared on Zhang Jiuyang's lips. In this way, he knew how to negotiate with the Moon Goddess and control her.

"I have learned something about the Moon Goddess."

Yue Ling seemed to have thought of something, and quickly stood up, took out three scrolls from the cabinet, and placed them in front of Zhang Jiuyang.

"The Moon Goddess is hidden deep in the palace, and it is difficult for my people to reach her. But after so much observation and testing, her identity can basically be locked among these three people."

Hearing this, Zhang Jiuyang's eyes lit up and showed a hint of appreciation.

Yue Ling is Yue Ling. She never makes him worry about anything and always gives him surprises. She is so reliable.

"Which three people?"

Yue Ling opened the first painting first and slowly unfolded it.

The painting shows a graceful, dignified and bright woman who appears to be in her thirties but is in extremely good condition. She is wearing a gorgeous phoenix robe and a four-phoenix crown on her head, which is inlaid with pearls, jadeite and other gems.

Such a crown is too gorgeous and difficult for ordinary women to control, but it looks natural on her. The graceful demeanor overwhelms all the jewels and gems, and she has a kind of nobleness that makes her the mother of the world.

There is no doubt that she must be the current queen.

"Empress Xiao is of high status and in charge of the six palaces. She often advises Your Majesty and is well-known for her virtue. She was once the eldest princess of the Liao Dynasty. During the reign of the previous emperor, she was sent to our Daqian to marry the current emperor."

The late emperor was once a wise and brave emperor, and was known as one of the Three Little Heroes together with Zhuge Yunhu and Yue Ling's father Yue Jiang.

At that time, their king and his ministers assisted each other in reviving the Great Qian Dynasty, which made the national strength soar for a time. They won victory after victory in the war with Northern Liao, and there was a faint aura of Qianyuan.

It was also at that time that the hurt Northern Liao sent its eldest princess to marry the crown prince at the time.

Originally she was just a concubine, but after she got married, the prince's wife died of illness soon after. She was appreciated by the old emperor and favored by the prince, so she was promoted to the main wife.

Now she is the mother of the country and the master of the harem.

But unfortunately, the old emperor became senile in his later years, which led to the weakening of Daqian's national strength. Northern Liao was also ready to make moves. Now, Daqian is once again at a disadvantage.

"Why do you doubt the Queen? Isn't she known for her virtue?"

Yue Ling pondered and said, "That's why I doubt her even more."

"The Moon Goddess is known for her charming and seductive ways, so it's no surprise that she deliberately acts virtuous and upright in order to hide her identity in the palace."

After all, it is hard for normal people to imagine that the most noble woman in Daqian, the queen who is the mother of the country, would be so coquettish and dissolute behind the scenes?

"Besides, Northern Liao has always revered demons as immortals. The horse-riding immortals came from Northern Liao. The Moon God is a fox demon, and Empress Xiao was born in Northern Liao. This also makes people suspicious."

"The only thing I can't figure out is, she is obviously the eldest princess of Northern Liao, why did she suddenly turn into a demon, and how did she hide it from so many eyes in Daqian?"

Yue Ling asked with a frown.

For some reason, Zhang Jiuyang suddenly thought of Su Daji in "The Investiture of the Gods".

"That princess of Northern Liao, on the way to be married, could she have met with an accident?"
