Qianlong, who wanted to fight for the world, was abandoned by the powerful forces behind him.

When encountering something like this, most people will be filled with grief and anger. How could they be so happy?

But when it falls on Yuan Mingzhen, it is very reasonable.

Although the Xie family is her creator and biggest supporter, they have no emotions in it. They are interested in interests and use. They only regard Yuan Mingzhen as a controllable tool. If Yuan Mingzhen is successfully brainwashed, it will be fine.

Without self, there is no perception of happiness and there is no pain.

But Yuan Mingzhen successfully resisted the brainwashing, which made it even more painful.

What surprised Tao Qian was the changing scenes behind Yuan Ming's true form and on both sides.

This demon concubine is so sincere.

Xi Zhenyu completely "opened up" to Tao Qian, showing the first half of his life without reservation.

Even some private matters are not covered up.

Of course, Tao Qian only glanced at it and quickly looked away, only to see how Yuan Mingzhen resisted brainwashing, how to practice, how to grow, and how to conquer the world.

The more I look at it, the more surprised I am!

The situation of Gai Yin, the demon concubine, is not at all what people in the world think she is. She is not at the end of her rope.

In fact, even if Xie's family took away all their support, she still had the power to escape.

She has more than just Xie Lingzhu and Li Ren under her command, but also many more hidden forces and subordinates.

Tao Qian looked at it with surprise on his face and sighed:

"Guanyin Temple, many remnants of the previous dynasty, Ruyi Temple, a major sect in the imperial capital, Sun Moon Sect, Dao Sect Hidden Sect Jiuling Sect, several Dongxuan cultivators, Tianfeng clan outside the territory... Yuan Taoist friend, you have these forces secretly

Support, it should be said that even if the imperial capital cannot be taken back, it is impossible to end up like this, let alone be trapped in Hanshan Temple."

"In addition, you have hidden these powers so well, why did you show them to me again?"

"If those warlords and demons who are having a feast in Xiaoleiyin Temple are here, I'm afraid they won't dare to covet fellow Taoists anymore."

Tao Qian's few sighs came from his heart.

Only at this moment did he realize that he, like everyone else, had completely underestimated Yuan Mingzhen, the demon concubine.

On second thought, I should have guessed it earlier.

How could she be an ordinary and weak woman who could write the "Ming Zhen Jing Shi Jing", gain the love of all the people in a short period of time after taking over the imperial capital, survive for such a long time in the presence of countless warlords, and also be recognized by the [Spring and Autumn Chariot]?

It may be a bit too much to say that she is very scheming, but she is definitely a young empress with extraordinary wisdom and good at planning.

The pity on Tao Qian's face when he saw Yuan Mingzhen's miserable first half of his life gradually turned into a sigh and a hint of vigilance.

This change was seen by Yuan Mingzhen.

Immediately, I realized that the stew in front of me was no longer very fragrant. I pursed my lips and explained weakly:

"The Bodhisattvas of Guanyin Temple support Mingzhen because they see me as pitiful. They also feel that I have extraordinary Buddhist connections and may help them spread the 'Way of Bodhisattva' throughout the seventy-two provinces and save more miserable people in the world."

"Those remnants of the previous dynasties are actually poor people who are not tolerated by the [Alchemists] for various reasons. They hide around like mice. Because of the complicated blood in my body and the "Holy Emperor's Sutra" that I have practiced.

》And those who recognize me as their master and are separated and hidden by me can be regarded as a force, but Mingzhen will not use them until the time comes."

"As for Ruyi Temple and Sun Moon Sect, both sects were destined to be exterminated. They were defeated by Mingzhen one after another before they chose to recognize me as their master."

"Those fellow Taoists who are casual cultivators have no mercy in me. They just recognize me because they have similar interests."

"The Tianfeng clan is the simplest. The Tianfeng that the Xie family tied to conceive me is actually the royal family of the Tianfeng clan... And I can barely be regarded as the princess of this clan who was left behind in this world. I can use the bloodline calling method to invite

The Phoenix Clan will come to help in the next few days, but they have to pay a high price to enter the world, and they won't use it even if they know it easily."

"These forces are not those that Mingzhen deliberately tried to win over. Most of them came about by chance and had to be contained."

"Brother Tao, isn't it the same as you have been walking all the way?"

When he said the last sentence, Yuan Mingzhen raised his head.

There was something extremely strong called "sense of identity" shining in his eyes.

In other words, it is resonance.

Without waiting for Tao Qian to say anything, Yuan Mingzhen said again:

"Mingzhen can see that Brother Tao, you are not a Qianlong who wants to dominate the world at all. You are a seeker."

"I'm afraid what you want is to be free and at ease, and to see you forever."

"You could have gone back to Penglaihai to practice peace of mind, but instead you were wallowing in this mortal world, being pushed step by step to where you are now. With those merits and virtues, you did so many great things, and then you were completely beaten by those people once they faced you.

However, if there is no accident when being chased by strong men, you will be entangled in it from now on until you reach the bliss, and then die and disappear..."

"You want to seek the Tao but can't get it, just as you want to be a mortal who can have his own self."

"You and I are the same."

"The difference is, Brother Tao, you have many escape routes. As long as your mind changes, you can escape and return to Peng Laihai at any time. But Mingzhen cannot. My blood, my heart and my soul, or my miserable half life, have been completely forged.

It is necessary to create a Yuan Mingzhen who must conquer the world, become the co-owner of human emperors, and enable hundreds of millions of people to live and work in peace and contentment."

"When I do that, Mingzhen will be liberated."

"Since I have attracted you, Brother Tao, Mingzhen does not shy away from saying that I need your help in this situation."

When Yuan Mingzhen finished saying this, Tao Qian's mind roared.

There was no time to think about it, and the pretty girl cursed herself. An extremely firm guess suddenly emerged in her heart:

This time he stepped into Qiantang Province, not on his own initiative.

It was Yuan Mingzhen who wanted to see him first. The demon concubine thought that Tao Qian was also a "tool man" pushed away by human destiny.

They felt sympathy for each other, but it was possible to form an alliance or for some other purpose, so they used some methods to get Tao Qian to come see her.

Even the call for help that Tao Qian received from the [Chunqiu Chariot] when he was wandering around in the past was probably released by Yuan Mingzhen on his own initiative.

In an instant, Tao Qian showed a look of helplessness on his face, half sighing and half cursing in his heart:

"What a demon concubine, what a great empress."

"Unexpectedly, I, Tao Daren, have been plotting and deceiving others all day long, but for no reason, I was killed by a half-grown girl."

"Huh? I didn't expect Shang Qing to be excusable. Where is Master...?"

As soon as he thought about this, Tao Qian immediately figured out something.

Yuan Mingzhen saw his expression and knew immediately that he had reacted.

He sighed softly and stood up suddenly.

The surrounding scene changed again, and this time the three of them stood together in the Spring and Autumn Chariot that was flying through the sky.

Below, there are the vast territories of Tiannan and Qiantang provinces.

And around the second province, there is a fog that is completely unreal but exudes a strong omen of crisis.

In the fog, all kinds of extremely huge, creeping and terrifying shadows showed their outlines.

Without exception, those shadows were all staring at Tao Qian.

Tao Qian didn't know why, so he turned to see Yuan Mingzhen.

I don’t know when, but the earthy and pretty stewed girl disappeared.

Instead, there is the empress version of Yuan Mingzhen, who is graceful and dignified, cold and majestic, with tear marks under her eyes and a flower bud on her forehead. She is really breathtaking.

She turned to look at Tao Qian and Yun Rong in Tao Qian's arms, with a look of envy on her face, and then said frankly:

"Master Tao, this time it is indeed clear that I have received the guidance of Master Duobao and used some methods to lead you to meet me in Qiantang."

Yuan Mingzhen's appearance changed, his appearance turned into good-looking, and his temperament also changed accordingly.

It’s not that Brother Tao is too long, Brother Tao is short. Let’s get straight to the point and tell him frankly.

Tao Qian looked at Yuan Mingzhen, guessing her thoughts and purposes:

"You have so much power hidden, you could have fled back to the south but you didn't. I think you thought that there were only a dozen provinces in the south, and all of them had their own masters, and there was the behemoth Yuanshizong behind you, so it was difficult for you to use your methods, so you deliberately

Trapped in Qiantang, lure me here."

"You want me to help you take over the two major provinces of Tiannan and Qiantang at the same time, and even add a Crescent Province. By gathering the land of the three provinces, and adding those forces, you will become the leader of the Northern Territory.

Can the fourth hidden dragon genius besides Hongfu Nu and Zhang Jinluan be enough to compete for the bloodline of the ancestral dragon?"

After he finished speaking, Yuan Mingzhen nodded first and then shook his head.

There was no covering up, and he said again with great frankness:

"After Mingzhen obtained the Spring and Autumn Chariot, he used the secret method in the Holy Emperor's Zhidao Jing to sense what kind of person Tao Zhenren is? What kind of ambition does he have?"

"I have to say that what real people think is really crazy."

"Ming Zhen thinks he has some talent. It is possible to become a human emperor or Ming Jun, but there is no guarantee that he can make this world and these seventy-two provinces what Zhen Zhen wants. Who can think of abolishing the imperial system and the title of the country?

In the hearts of real people, it is a trivial matter that is taken for granted, and before you practiced cultivation, you did not even look down on such an existence as the emperor."

"Except for the emperor, other wealthy families, Taoists, Buddhas, demons, gods and evil spirits also look down upon him. They think that ordinary people should be the rulers of this world, which is also rare."
