As an official, what's wrong with raising a few monsters?

Chapter 135 My brother is willing to share the world with Lord Ming
"Tsk tsk tsk~"

"Just got married and now I have to stay alone in an empty room~"

Sister Dai finally left with some things that didn't belong to her.

Mingchen sat in the yard, quietly looking at the clear sky above the dome.

He smiled, feeling a little happy and a little reluctant.

The feelings are mutual, and he has never hidden his love for Ling Yu.

When the other person left, it seemed as if a piece of his heart was also stolen.

It's human nature, and Mingchen is no exception.

He is a free-spirited person. He does what he wants and does not control his emotions. He loves without saying he doesn't love.

The breeze was blowing gently, causing the peach blossom petals to tremble slightly.

The cat dozed off limply in his arms, and the bird had disappeared somewhere and hadn't come back all night.

"How long will you like her?"

Suddenly, a female voice like a silver bell rang in my ears.

At some point, the peach blossom pollen drifted in the wind and gradually gathered into the shape of a human.

The blind beauty appeared in front of Mingchen and looked at him with a smile.

She has the aura of a cool and mature queen, but speaks with full energy.

"A long, long time... until the end of time."

Mingchen glanced at her, his eyes seemed to reflect his sister Dai's face, and said with a smile.

This playboy is good at sweet talk.

"I don't believe it~"

Mingchen raised his eyebrows: "Why do I need your faith?"

As if remembering something, he couldn't help but ask her, "You weren't going to steal the girl last night, were you?!"

Tao Yaoyao pointed to her empty eyes and said, "I can't see anything."

Mingchen shrugged: "That's hard to say."

The wind blew gently, and the blind beauty suddenly came to her side: "I ask you, I ask you~"

"If she wasn't pretty... would you still like her? Do you like her as a person? Or her face?"

She had no eyes, but she stared at Mingchen, her face full of curiosity and inquiry.

Why do women always like to ask these abstract questions?
Mingchen looked at the drifting clouds in the sky and said, "How can there be so many ifs in this world?"

"Does my liking for her appearance conflict with my liking for her as a person?"

"I can't accept being with someone whose appearance doesn't meet my aesthetic standards."

What's wrong with liking beauty and beautiful girls?

Tao Yaoyao shook her head: "You don't like her, you are just attracted by her beauty."

In that corrupt and decadent place, she had seen too much ugliness and filthiness disguised as love.

"What's wrong with being tempted by beauty? Without the initial temptation, can there be a future of deep love?"

"If she were old and ugly, would you still like her?"

Mingchen glanced at her: "Even though she is old and ugly, she is still beautiful."

If the black hair turns white, I will tie it into a heart-shaped knot.

Tao Yaoyao was shocked when she heard this, and looked at him with her head tilted, as if she was thinking about something.

The figure gradually disappeared with the wind.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a flash of white light passed by.

The little bird that had gone somewhere unknown finally came back.

"What did Fuyao do last night?"

Mingchen actually doesn't like discussing those abstract issues with Tao Yaoyao.

Mo Xing didn't say anything either.

He had no one to talk to at this time and felt a little lonely.

He picked up the bird and asked with a smile.

"Forehead……"

The bird trembled and its eyes became a little vague.

The hundred-year-old bird finally grew up in an instant, and the door to a new world opened.

She pretended to be calm and said to Mingchen, "I'm going to practice."

"Is it?"

Mingchen raised his eyebrows.

We did drive them all away yesterday.

The rat was very obedient, so the cat just found a side yard to take a nap.

The old ghost was carried away by Xiudie with an expression that his disciple had finally made it.
But this unfortunate girl has always been naughty, and I don’t know if she will listen to me.

Facing Mingchen's inquiring gaze, the bird felt a little uneasy, as if it was about to be exposed.

at this time……

"Sir, Lord Liu requests an audience!"

The guards' shouts were heard outside the courtyard.

Mingchen was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand: "Let him in."

……

"Long time no see, Master Ming is still as elegant as ever~"

Wang Liu is a smart man and knows how to read people's expressions.

He could see that Mingchen seemed to be in a good mood.

"I apologize for my hasty visit."

Mingchen poured him a cup of tea and said with a smile, "It's okay, as long as you're polite!"

Wang Liu: ...

"Master Liu, why did you come to see me?"

Ever since his identity was revealed that day, Wang Liu has never come again.

Mingchen almost forgot about the existence of such a person.

"Liu Shengqian... I've come to thank you for your support."

When the new king ascended the throne, he was indeed promoted.

But Mingchen didn't do anything. The reason he said that was just to have a reason.

"Alright, alright, stop talking about these true and false things. Why did you come to see me?"

Others may not know, but Mingchen still doesn’t know who this top scholar is?
The younger brother of the leader of the Blood-Cloaked Army.

This man is a walking powder keg, ready to explode if caught. Wang Liu smiled and said, "The old king has passed away, the new king has ascended the throne, and the divine generals and soldiers have been dispatched to quell the rebellion. I have come here to discuss the general situation of the world with Lord Ming."

Xiao Yu died and Xiao Zhengyang ascended the throne.

Everything happened too suddenly and unexpectedly.

Wang Liu was not mentally prepared.

Logically speaking, a new emperor appoints new ministers, and the court will change accordingly.

The old ones leave and the new ones come in.

As the new top scholar, he will definitely get the opportunity to soar to prominence.

This is indeed the case.

For a normal top scholar, this might be a good thing.

But considering his background and the Blood-Cloaked Army... maybe that's not the case.

Mingchen paused after hearing this and looked at him with interest: "Are you speaking to me on behalf of the Blood-Cloaked Army? Or on your own behalf?"

"It represents both Liu and the Blood-Cloaked Army."

Wang Liu knew that Mingchen was not his enemy.

His brother respected him very much. If it weren't for him, the Blood-Shirt Army wouldn't have started the uprising.

Many of my brother's ideological principles were taught to him by this person.

Such a person, even if he does not join the Blood Clothes Army, cannot be loyal to Qian Yuan.

He leaned closer to Mingchen and said, "Master Ming, do you know that my brother has established a kingdom and proclaimed himself emperor in Xiaoyao City, Wuzhou. The kingdom is called Da Qi."

"Ok?"

Mingchen was stunned when he heard this. He really didn't know about this.

He is not an immortal or god, so he cannot understand everything.

In this era without mobile phones, message transmission was very slow.

"So you're going to be emperor now?"

Mingchen frowned: "Bad move!"

When Xiao Yu was around, Wang Huai could become emperor. At that time, it was actually possible to divide the land and become a king or emperor.

It would be a bit embarrassing to declare himself emperor at this time.

Xiao Zhengyang is not Xiao Yu, the difference in their reputations is huge.

"Who allowed your brother to become emperor?"

Wang Liu: ...

He's probably the only person in the world who can speak of his brother like this.

Wang Liu replied, "One of the Nine Ghosts, the Astrology Ghost."

"Astrology? Is he some strange person?"

Wang Liu was silent for a moment and said, "Yes."

Mingchen is their brothers' benefactor. He doesn't know what his brother thinks, but he will not hold anything back from Mingchen.

Mingchen shook the teacup, causing the tea leaves to float up and down, and asked, "What do you think?"

Wang Liu pursed his lips and said, "My brother didn't know that the old king had passed away."

The Blood-Cloaked Army rose to power by opposing the unjust and incompetent emperor Xiao Yu. Now that Xiao Yu is dead, the target of the crusade has disappeared.

The one who ascended the throne was Xiao Zhengyang, a wise and virtuous prince with an excellent reputation.

If the prince lives longer, the Blood-Clothed Army will be in trouble.

At this time, he became emperor not for the sake of the people, but for his own ambition to dominate the world, and the people were just his sword.

No matter how you try to fool the lower class people?

Dayi is the core of the Blood-Cloaked Army.

Even Wang Liu felt that his brother was being too hasty and arbitrary in this matter.

There are gains and losses, but he also doesn't think his brother did anything wrong.

The blood-stained robes have become a trend, so what's wrong with becoming emperor?
In terms of status, he can be on par with Emperor Qian and compete for the throne in a fair and open manner.

My brother may have felt that the situation was pressing and it would be too late if he didn't declare himself emperor.

Mingchen raised an eyebrow: "That astrology ghost? Doesn't he know?"

Why didn’t you come earlier or later, but at this moment?

Mingchen felt that there was something wrong with Wang Huai's people.

"..."

Wang Liu pleaded for his brother, "Lord Ming, the situation is pressing. The Blood Robe Army has no other options. Why not just declare this to the world and establish a standoff?"

"Then why don't you use the name of clearing the court? The court officials are all those who fight for power and profit, oppressing the people. Why don't you use the name of eliminating these people? Why do you have to declare yourself emperor?"

If you declare yourself emperor and establish your own regime, you will have no choice but to take a narrow path.

Qianyuan has been around for more than 500 years, and the ideas and concepts of these 500 years have been deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Is this nominal title really that important?

Wang Huai has a problem with his thinking.

"Master Ming, are you concerned about our Blood-Cloaked Army?"

However, Wang Liu was not angry when he heard this. Instead, his eyes lit up and he looked at Mingchen with some anticipation.

Mingchen's deeds, coupled with his few words now, fully demonstrate his ability.

He now believed completely what his brother had told him: if he got Mingchen, he could get the world.

Mingchen shrugged: "I'm just concerned about your brother and his friends!"

The Blood-Clothed Army and Xiao Xinyue can no longer coexist.

With less room for maneuver, Mingchen just felt that his investment had fallen.

Putting everything else aside, he thought Wang Huai was a very good person.

Respect is mutual. Wang Huai respects him, and Mingchen actually also respects this man's courage and bravery.

Wang Huai is a hero whose name will be recorded in history.

However, it now seems that the wind of the hero's demise has begun to blow.

Mingchen felt sorry about this.

Wang Liu asked somewhat unwillingly, "Master Ming...are you really unwilling to join my Blood-Cloaked Army?"

Although there are many drawbacks and the strength is slightly weaker, the Blood Clothes Army still seems to be much stronger than the current Qian Yuan, right?
The Blood-Clothed Army is a group of young people rising up in youth, while Qian Yuan is already old.

Wang Liu really has confidence that they can change the dynasty and replace it.

Mingchen just shook his head.

Wang Liu gritted his teeth and looked closely at Ming Chen: "Master Ming, my brother asked me to bring you a message."

"If you are willing to join the Blood-Cloaked Army."

"In the future, our army will overthrow Qian Yuan and change the dynasty. My brother is willing to share the world with Lord Ming."
