For a moment, she remained silent, her expression complex and difficult to describe.
"Your task remains the same: keep an eye on Zhu Youzhen and make sure he doesn't do anything reckless."
Qin Chuan said it casually, but he was thinking about something else.
Previously, Shi Yao had suggested to him that they bring back the four Corpse Ancestors of the Xuanming Sect.
He actually had this plan as well.
However, it's unclear whether Shi Yao brought this up at Yuan Tiangang's behest.
That's why I thought about it for so long.
"Why doesn't the Grand Preceptor eliminate Zhu Youzhen and declare himself emperor?"
At this moment, Zhong Xiaokui regained her composure and asked Qin Chuan:
"With your talent, no one in this world is more suitable to be the emperor."
Her words were not flattering at all; they came from the bottom of her heart.
This Grand Preceptor possessed both the authority to awe civil and military officials, the benevolence to cherish the people, and talent far surpassing that of others.
No one in the world is more suitable to be the emperor than him.
As long as this Grand Preceptor ascends to the throne, it won't be long before another Zhenguan era of prosperity and the Kaiyuan era of golden age arrive.
"I never expected that Lord Zhong Kui would have such a high opinion of my teacher. It's truly rare."
Qin Chuan did not answer the question and directly changed the subject.
"It was Xiao Kui's fault before, she misunderstood the Imperial Preceptor..."
Zhong Xiao Kui bowed deeply and sincerely apologized.
"Hehe, we have guests. Please open the door and welcome them, Lord Zhong Kui."
Qin Chuan suddenly smiled slightly.
Zhong Xiao Kui only realized that someone was standing outside the council hall after he reminded her.
With a flick of her wrist, Zhong Xiao Kui opened the bronze door using the Netherworld Water Silk.
There stood a cloaked figure with his head bowed.
"who?"
Just as Zhong Xiao Kui spoke up to ask a question, the cloaked man looked up.
"Li Xingyun? You dare to come to the headquarters of my Xuanming Sect!"
Upon seeing that the person in question was Li Xingyun, a remnant of the previous dynasty, Zhong Xiaokui immediately prepared to attack.
"Alright, step back. He's here to see me."
Qin Chuan waved his hand gently.
Zhong Xiaokui was now completely obedient to Qin Chuan and left the council hall without asking any questions.
The cloaked figure then stepped into the hall.
He threw off his cloak, revealing his full appearance.
With the same face and figure as Li Xingyun, and the same red clothes and accessories as Li Xingyun.
Aside from lacking Li Xingyun's carefree and irresponsible demeanor, he was almost identical to Li Xingyun.
"Qin Chuan, the world is without a ruler. Would you be willing to help me become emperor?"
This Li Xingyun, who immediately declared himself emperor, is the complete opposite of the other Li Xingyun, who desperately tried to avoid it.
"If Li Xingyun had said those words to me, I would have nodded in agreement."
Qin Chuan gently tapped the armrest of the throne and shook his head, saying:
"Unfortunately, you are not him."
How could he not see that this was a fake Li Xingyun?
The little brat who dared to call Yuan Tiangang "boss" back then has finally been twisted into the way he is now by Yuan Tiangang.
Rather than saying he wanted to become emperor, it would be more accurate to say he simply wanted Yuan Tiangang's approval.
In his heart, Yuan Tiangang was like a father figure.
This is similar to Yelü Zhiwu in the original trajectory.
Unfortunately, Yelü Zhiwu did not go astray because of Qin Chuan, while the fake Li Xingyun was not so lucky.
"Once I obtain his dragon blood, Li Xingyun will be mine!"
The fake Li Xingyun revealed his intentions:
"As long as you help me find the Corpse Ancestor Hou Qing and obtain the Blood Weeping Record, I can do this very easily."
"Hou Qing has become a hot commodity."
Qin Chuan chuckled.
He is now certain that Shi Yao's mention of the Four Corpse Ancestors was indeed at Yuan Tiangang's behest.
Even now, this old codger still wants to test whether he has any ambition to become emperor.
"It seems Yuan Tiangang hasn't included me in the kill list yet, otherwise there would be no need for him to test me..."
Qin Chuan instantly deduced the information he wanted from this incident.
The fake Li Xingyun's next words also corroborated this point.
"Qin Chuan, the Marshal has been hesitant about whether Li Xingyun can control you. Once I become Li Xingyun, the Marshal won't need to worry about that anymore. I'm not that good-for-nothing he thinks I am!"
In order to gain Qin Chuan's support, the fake Li Xingyun even betrayed Yuan Tiangang.
Qin Chuan remained calm, showing no great surprise.
He had anticipated Yuan Tiangang's concerns and had been preparing for them all along.
So that one day, if he really had a falling out with Yuan Tiangang, he wouldn't be without any confidence.
"I will find Hou Qing. As for whether he is willing to give you the Bloodstained Record, that's up to you."
Qin Chuan looked at the fake Li Xingyun and said calmly.
The fake Li Xingyun told him Yuan Tiangang's real concerns, so he did him a favor and found Hou Qing.
In any case, he also needed to recruit Hanba through Hou Qing.
Upon hearing this, the fake Li Xingyun was overjoyed, believing that Qin Chuan had already sided with him.
"The commander-in-chief has other instructions for me to give you."
Only then did the fake Li Xingyun bring up the matter of Qianling Mausoleum.
"People die for wealth, birds die for food."
Qin Chuan slowly stood up:
"Since they are interested in the Longquan treasure, they should be prepared to die in the Qianling Mausoleum."
Even if he didn't take action against those people, given the dangers of Qianling, they wouldn't have much of a chance of survival.
Yuan Tiangang sent the fake Li Xingyun to give him instructions, which was actually to create an opportunity for the two of them to meet.
He saw through it, but the fake Li Xingyun was still in the dark.
Chapter 77 The Empress Who Is About to 'Catch Her in the Act'
After a conversation with Qin Chuan, the fake Li Xingyun left with great confidence.
With the support of this young marshal, he is basically guaranteed to defeat that good-for-nothing Li Xingyun.
"How pitiful..."
Qin Chuan watched him leave and sighed softly.
The fake Li Xingyun never had a chance of winning.
From beginning to end, he was merely a tool used by Yuan Tiangang to incite Li Xingyun's imperial ambitions.
The poor guy was oblivious to his own situation, and was overjoyed to think that Yuan Tiangang had given him a chance.
Qin Chuan withdrew his gaze and let out a whistle.
A gyrfalcon flew into the main hall, bringing the Empress a letter.
After doing all this, he found Chi Meng, who was still having a great time, and the two of them went to Qianling together.
Qi country, Huanyinfang.
Amidst the smoke, behind the beaded curtain, on the fragrant couch, the Empress casually teased a cat, chuckling softly:
"Meiguo, Meiguo, do you know that you are a cat, so why do you love to eat apples so much?"
The cat named Meiguo stared at the red apple in her hand and meowed.
May the Empress enjoy boundless blessings and peace.
The two sisters, Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian, suddenly entered the ward and gracefully bowed down:
"We have news from the young marshal."
Originally, everyone in Huanyinfang called Qin Chuan "Young Master Qin".
Later, they realized that there were many young masters of Qin in the world, but only one young marshal, so they changed their title.
"I already know he defeated Li Cunxu. Is there any new information?"
The Empress's gaze instantly shifted to them.
The cat named Meiguo was eager to try and was ready to snatch the red apple from her hand at any moment.
"Breaking news..."
Miao Chengtian and Xuan Jingtian looked at each other in bewilderment.
The Empress mobilized almost the entire Huan Yin Fang to keep a close eye on the young marshal's movements.
