Chapter 212: The Dilemma of the Imperial Master
The emperor is in a bad mood now.
Instead of worshipping the true God, he found a liar to be the national teacher!
He is the emperor, he is the master of this world!
But now everyone knows that he is a fool, a fool who has been deceived!
"Have you checked carefully? Wuyou has really passed away!"
The emperor asked this, obviously he was not giving up.
The leader actually had some doubts, but now Master Wuyou was the benefactor of the world, and he didn't want to get into trouble.
Moreover, the gate of Xiangguo Temple was closed and there were Prince Xian’s men guarding it, so who could see anything?
So he could only bite the bullet and say, "I am sure!"
He just wants to live a good life without causing trouble for himself.
As for whether Master Wuyou is really alive or dead, what does it matter?
Besides, there is really no benefit for the emperor to indulge in these things.
"Okay! Okay! Go and invite the Imperial Master over to me!"
The emperor was so angry, it was obvious that someone was going to be in trouble, and the imperial teacher was that person.
Manager Wang sighed in his heart, it is true that nothing lasts forever.
The Imperial Master has been in the limelight in recent years and has been favored by the Emperor, but now his misfortune has come.
As the saying goes, "birds of a feather flock together." When Manager Wang thought of this, he couldn't help but feel sad. He didn't know what his final outcome would be.
He had not thought so much about it before, but as he grew older over the years, the emperor became more and more suspicious, and his path became more and more difficult.
A new emperor appoints new ministers, and this trusted eunuch knows too many of the emperor's secrets.
If the prince who finally ascends the throne is not the one he supports, then one can imagine what the outcome will be.
Steward Wang couldn't help but think that among so many princes, only Prince Xian and the Crown Prince had some abilities.
If he were allowed to choose, he really would look down on the prince.
Manager Wang calculated that the money he had saved for retirement was enough for him to live the rest of his life without worries about food and clothing, but the prerequisite was that he could get out of it safely.
He didn't want to find a backer or take sides, but looking at the current situation, he had no choice but to do so.
When the imperial teacher arrived, Steward Wang quietly retreated and waited outside the door.
He would not do such a ridiculous thing. If the emperor did not hate the imperial teacher, he would have established a powerful enemy.
He didn't need to listen to what happened. He just needed to see whether the national master could come out. That was enough.
At this moment, the imperial teacher was looking at the emperor in amazement. What did he just hear?
"Your Majesty, why do you suddenly have such an idea? How can an ordinary person summon a dragon?"
Ordinary people?
He claimed that he came from a great sect of immortal cultivators. He was no ordinary person!
"Have you forgotten, Imperial Master? The means you used when you met me were so dazzling. Why can't you do that today?
Back then, you single-handedly brought a red cloud to the sky, controlled the birds and beasts, and even the white tiger knelt at my feet.
Since these can be done, why can't we summon a dragon?
Besides, am I an ordinary person? I am the emperor. If I am not qualified to see the dragon, then who is qualified?"
Although the Imperial Master acted calm, he was actually sweating and even shaking uncontrollably.
Your Majesty, what on earth is going on?
Why did he suddenly want to see the dragon? How could he do that?
Has anyone in this world ever seen a dragon?
Although he has some ability to control wild beasts, he has trained them himself, and the white tiger is also his pet.
But Shenlong, that is absolutely impossible!
“If Your Majesty really wants to see a real dragon, it is not impossible.
But calling the divine beast is a big deal, I need to bathe, change clothes, burn incense and fast, and it will take 49 days to do it!"
The emperor looked at him seriously for a while, then shook his head and said, "No! We must do it now!"
The Imperial Master had a serious look on his face, then bowed deeply.
"Please forgive me for not being able to obey your order!"
The emperor was so angry when he saw him like this that he sneered. This guy was sure that he would not kill him!
"Do you think I won't kill you?"
"I dare not! Your Majesty, you are the emperor, and the power of life and death in this world is in your hands.
As long as you want my life, I will offer it to you with both hands, without any hesitation!"
After saying this, the national teacher lowered his head to the ground.
The emperor remained silent for a long time.
The Imperial Master was also kneeling quietly, secretly calculating in his mind.
He didn't know what had happened. Something must have irritated the emperor, so he suddenly made such an outrageous request.
Summon the dragon?
Even with magic, he couldn't do it.
The only thing we can do now is to think of a way out and see if we can leave within these forty-nine days.
He was only afraid of one thing, that is, the emperor had become suspicious and would keep a close eye on him in the days to come.
But it doesn't matter. He had already thought of a way out for himself and even found a substitute. He was just waiting to transfer the money and treasures out.
The Imperial Master knew very well in his heart that as long as he survived tonight, he would not die.
So now he is also gambling, seeing whether the emperor is willing to kill him.
"Very good, then I will give you forty-nine days. If you cannot summon the dragon by then, I will send you to heaven!"
"I will definitely do it, Your Majesty, please trust me!"
"Of course I trust you, otherwise you wouldn't be able to walk out alive tonight.
I am not afraid to tell you, and you don't need to make excuses, because tonight, before Master Wuyou passed away, a dragon descended and brought sweet rain!"
The national teacher was shocked, he never expected this to happen.
Wuyou that guy is actually dead!
Not only did he die, but he also hurt himself at the last moment!
That stinky monk is so hateful!
He thought that everything was due to his arrangement and that Xie Linlang's prayer for rain was successful. He never expected that it was actually a stepping stone for Wuyou!
Although the Imperial Master was extremely angry, he still had to express his feelings a few words.
"Master Wuyou has accomplished all his merits and virtues, and now that he has passed away, it can be considered as a fulfillment of his wish."
The emperor snorted coldly when he heard this.
He had accomplished all his merits and had no intention of serving the court.
If I had known that he had such ability, why would I have gone so far to seek him?
"By the way, there is something you don't know yet, right? Your Imperial Master's Mansion has lost an elder this time."
The Imperial Master had no idea what was going on and was very surprised, even a little uneasy.
"Your Majesty, please make it clear."
"Why is your Imperial Master's House so careless in doing things? You actually let your disciples collude with others?
They said they were praying for blessings, but in fact they made a mess, and in the end they attracted birds and beasts, which pooped on the prayer platform!"
When it comes to this, the emperor doesn’t know whether he should believe the imperial teacher.
If you don’t believe it, birds and beasts are just animals, how can they know who is a good person and who is a bad person?
But they just knew it, and their goal was very clear, which was that they looked down on Xie Linlang.
By the way, this Xie Linlang should be the eldest daughter of the Duke of Anguo’s Mansion. It seems that it was said before that the prince was interested in marrying them?
Thinking of this, the emperor smiled.
This is a good thing, right?
The prince is so old now, it’s time for him to have a wife!
