The Holy Emperor of Ming

Chapter 196 The Most Powerful Emperor and Empress

The most common discussions in the Ming Dynasty martial arts world had died down a lot.

Overall, I'm a little disappointed, but not big.

Most of those who are disappointed are just there to watch the fun.

After the voices died down, most were discussing when Emperor Shengwu would be able to break through to the realm of heaven and man?
Some people believe that it will take less than two years as the imperial edict says.

More people rationally believe that it will take longer.

As for the imperial edict that said his strength was comparable to that of a celestial being, quite a few people believed it.

They also believed that Emperor Shengwu had already reached the level of a grandmaster and was invincible.

Besides, there wouldn't be any great master or supreme powerhouse who would challenge the Holy Martial Emperor anyway, so this matter received the least discussion.

Among the high-ranking officials in the martial arts world, most people felt relieved.

Emperor Shengwu was not too monstrous to challenge their endurance limit.

But think about what the will says; it won’t take two years.

If there is a breakthrough two years later, then... it seems like the monster is still challenging their limits.

There were also a small number of high-ranking martial arts figures who were in shock and confusion.

Did Emperor Shengwu (Zhu Houzhao) really not make any breakthrough?

He also said that he would be able to break through to the realm of heaven and man in less than two years. Can such a thing be said openly?

He is the emperor.

The emperor is also the most untrustworthy identity.

These people felt that things were not that simple. Perhaps Zhu Houzhao had made a breakthrough and denied that he was plotting anything.

Maybe they are preparing to deal with the Mongols or other countries.

Within the Ming Dynasty, those with evil intentions are among those who have such speculations.

I had already stopped the small action, but after thinking about it, I decided to continue stopping.

There was no need to gamble whether it would attract Zhu Houzhao, who had broken through to the heavenly realm, and launch a thunderous attack.

It would be stupid to be used as an arrow by the Mongols and other countries.

At the same time, countries such as the Mongols and Yuan Dynasty had more similar ideas.

In the forest, Temujin immediately issued several orders, fully monitoring the movements of the Ming army, especially the whereabouts of Emperor Wu's Dragon Cavalry.

Most of the core members of the Oirat and Tatar tribes began to migrate backwards.

The Khan's court became more vigilant.

The Sui, Song, Jin, Turks and other countries close to the Ming Dynasty had the same reaction.

None of them dared to believe the words of the imperial edict.

On the contrary, they were more inclined to believe that Zhu Houzhao had already made a breakthrough and was now plotting something.

This is the country.

They cannot miss any possibility of extremely serious consequences and must be prepared for the worst-case scenario.

Meng Yuan.

"You are going back to Ming." Under the moonlight, a tall and enchanting figure stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly.

Behind him was a woman in a plain dress.

The slim-fitting dress makes the woman's figure look slim and slender, and her thin waist is like a willow.

Her face is so perfect that it is impossible to describe it in words. There is also a fairy-like air about her, just like Chang'e under the moon, about to fly away with the wind.

"Now?" The woman was slightly surprised, with a heartbreaking sadness on her face.

"Yes, now." The figure was the Mongolian magician Pang Ban, who said in a calm voice.

"Have you cultivated your magic skills to the peak?" The woman lowered her head and asked softly.

The sadness became even stronger.

Pang Ban didn't turn around, his expression remained unchanged, and he didn't say anything more.

Suddenly, the woman realized something. She raised her head and asked in a serious tone, "Are you going to let me enter the Daming Palace at this time?"

"That's right." Pang Ban said frankly.

"You want me to help you murder Emperor Shengwu? That's impossible." The woman immediately shook her head and said firmly.

"I knew it was impossible, and I never thought of murdering Zhu Houzhao.

The Taoist method of planting demons in the heart could not do anything to the Ming Shenwu Dian, not to mention that Zhu Houzhao's foundation was so strong that it was probably unparalleled in the world.

There are two reasons why you entered the palace."

Pang Ban shook his head and said calmly: "First, Zhu Houzhao is indeed an excellent opponent. I want to use you to fight his will and seek an opportunity for a breakthrough.

Second, I need to use you to test whether he has made a breakthrough or not?
Third, you are going to the Ming Kingdom to form a marriage alliance in the name of the Mongol Empire, temporarily suspending the relationship between the two countries."

"I believe the first two points, but I don't believe the third point. There is no room for easing relations between the Mongols and the Ming Dynasty.

Neither Emperor Shengwu nor Genghis Khan would allow it.

I won’t help you either.” The woman said calmly.

“The relationship between countries is not as simple as you think.

Genghis Khan and Zhu Houzhao were both men of great talent and strategy, so it is not necessarily the case that they would not cooperate temporarily.

You can also pretend that the third point does not exist.

You can rest assured that this move will not bring harm to Cihang Jingzhai and Ming Dynasty Buddhism.

I will tell Zhu Houzhao everything clearly. Do you want me to do it? Look at him." Pang Ban still spoke in a calm tone.

"Let me explain the matter clearly. I went to the Ming Dynasty as a Mongolian to form an alliance. Let's not talk about other things for now. How will the world view Cihang Jingzhai?
I won't agree." The woman shook her head again. Pang Ban turned around, looked at the woman quietly, and said calmly: "Okay, you don't have to go to the Ming Dynasty for marriage as a Mongolian, but I will still send you to the capital of the Ming Dynasty and to Zhu Houzhao.

Tell him everything clearly, and see if he has the courage to fight me with you?"

The woman seemed to have been hit hard. She stared at the familiar figure in front of her absentmindedly, "Are you so calm?"

Pang Ban remained silent, his expression not changing at all.

After a few breaths, he walked away, leaving behind his cold voice.

"Get ready. I will send someone to take you to Daming in ten days."

The woman stood there for a long time, as if she had lost her soul.

In the deepest palace of the Jin Dynasty Imperial Palace, there were only three people.

"Are you all ready?" Indra, who was wearing an ice sculpture mask, asked coldly.

"In reply to our ancestor, everything has been prepared." Wanyan Aguda, the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, said respectfully on the side.

"Okay." Emperor Shitian responded and looked at the third person, who was an extremely beautiful woman. He said calmly, "The identity has been prepared for you, and the problem of the cultivation method has also been solved. You should know what to do."

“Disciple understands that after entering the Ming Imperial Palace, we must first find out whether Zhu Houzhao has broken through to the Heavenly Man realm?

She then gained Zhu Houzhao's favor, became the queen and gave birth to a prince soon.

After Zhu Houzhao dies, the Ming Kingdom will be the master's." The woman said firmly.

"Okay, go ahead." Indra waved his hand.

After the woman quietly left, Wanyan Aguda said hesitantly: "Ancestor, women are the most fickle, especially women who have children. Luo Xian..."

"Haha, don't worry. No matter what happens, Luo Xian can't escape from the palm of my hand." Emperor Shitian smiled confidently.

State of Song.

"How is the matter of the late emperor's daughter returning to her ancestral home going?" Zhao Ji asked anxiously.

"Go back to the emperor's house. The one from the Lin family has no objection, but he said that the little princess has to agree to it herself and can't be forced.

At present, the little princess is unwilling to leave the ancient tomb." The voice replied respectfully.

Zhao Ji was stunned and couldn't believe it, "Didn't I tell her clearly that it was the royal family of the Song Dynasty that asked her to recognize her ancestry?"

"Yes, but the little princess has an indifferent personality and doesn't care about anything in the outside world." The voice said with difficulty.

"If she doesn't want to return to her ancestral home, where did this fatherless and motherless girl come from? Does she know how to write the word filial piety?

I—" Zhao Ji wanted to get angry, but thinking of the woman from the Lin family and the people involved, he held back.

After hesitating for a while, he sighed and said, "Well, even if such a woman goes to Ming, I'm afraid it won't be good for our Song Dynasty.

It seems that I can only go and talk to the Imperial Master."

Zhao Ji personally went to a scripture pavilion in the imperial palace and spoke a long and earnest speech to a figure.

After a while, the figure said calmly: "Your Majesty, you don't know that Yaoqin went to the Ancient Tomb Sect."

"Ancient Tomb Sect? What is Yaoqin doing in the Ancient Tomb Sect?" Zhao Ji asked puzzledly.

"The ancient tomb sect's martial arts are very suitable for Yaoqin, so she went there." The figure said in a calm voice.

Zhao Ji paused, feeling a little uncomfortable. He felt that the person in front of him was fooling him.

But he had no evidence and couldn't take a tough stance.

After two breaths of silence, the figure said solemnly: "Your Majesty, although Yaoqin's mother is a member of the royal family of the Song Dynasty, her surname is Yang after all.

Besides, I only have this one disciple, and I don’t want anyone to force him. I hope the officials will forgive me.”

"The Imperial Master is joking." Zhao Ji laughed dryly and explained, "Of course I will not force Yao Qin.

Moreover, I have already granted Yaoqin the status of a princess, and will soon give her the status of a princess. It is also only right that she change her surname to Zhao.

But I promise you, Imperial Master, that I will never force Yaoqin, it is all up to her own will. "

"That's good." The figure looked at Zhao Ji deeply and nodded.

Zhao Ji pondered for a moment, then said earnestly, "Speaking of which, you also know, Imperial Master, that men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough.

Yaoqin is your only disciple and the future princess of our Great Song Dynasty. She has such a noble status and is extremely outstanding.

There are really few men in the world who are worthy of her.

So I intend to let her marry Emperor Shengwu of Ming Dynasty, and it is also for Yaoqin's own good.

With Yaoqin's excellence, she will surely become the Empress of the Ming Dynasty and become the most powerful emperor and empress in thousands of years with Emperor Shengwu.

I really am doing this for Yaoqin's own good."

An incomprehensible color flashed in the depths of the figure's eyes.

Since you know that Yaoqin is so outstanding, there is a high possibility that she has reached the Grand Master level.

Why must we marry off such a pillar of the country?

Although he couldn't understand it, he wouldn't ask or even interfere.

The only thing he would do was not to let anyone force his disciples openly.

"I understand what the officials said, and I also know that all roads in the world are trials.

If Yaoqin does not go through various trials, there is no hope for her to succeed.

So I just don't let anyone force her." The figure said meaningfully.

Heavenly being?

Zhao Ji disagreed in his heart. The person in front of him had not reached the level of a celestial being, let alone that little girl?
He smiled and said, "What the Imperial Master said is very true. I understand."

After Zhao Ji left, the figure behind him couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.

He knew that Zhao Ji did not listen to his words.

If the Song Dynasty could produce a holy emperor, then...
(In the second chapter, no one mentioned the woman in yellow shank. She is definitely a top female expert.)
