Chapter 916: Spring Comes Out of Dead Trees
Chapter 916 Spring comes out of dead wood (fourth update)
At night, in Wu's inner palace, Wu Tianming held a banquet in the back garden for three people.
The lights in the huge back garden were dim, and dozens of old eunuchs, all in their sixties, were waiting on the side. Apart from them, no one else was seen. Originally, Wu Tianming had a group of young eunuchs serving him closely, but as soon as he entered the harem, Wu Tianming drove all the young eunuchs aside, leaving only these old men who were shaking when they walked.
Wu Qi looked at these old eunuchs curiously. Wu Tianming just introduced the origins of these old eunuchs. They were all close friends who had been with Wu Tianming since they were three or five years old and had been serving Wu Tianming for decades.
Wu Tianming also has more than thirty brothers. Among all the brothers, Wu Tianming likes to indulge in sensuality, recite poems, write poems and depict paintings. Wu Tianming has the lowest cultivation level and the lowest popularity. His mother is also the humblest and has no maternal power. He could be relied on, so no one thought that he would become the emperor of the Wu Dynasty. It is precisely for this reason that there are very few people around him who have eyes and ears. These eunuchs who have served him since childhood are now the only group he can trust and rely on in Dawu.
Nowadays, in the Wu Dynasty, Wu Dijie controls the external affairs of the court, and the former emperor's queen and the current empress dowager control the internal affairs of the inner palace. No one, whether internal or external, is Wu Tianming's confidant. Apart from these old eunuchs, Wu Tianming was unable to get the government orders in the court. Even when he ordered a maid to sleep with him in the inner palace, he encountered many obstacles. All in all, he was a very frustrated emperor.
Just like now when he is having a banquet in the back garden, the eunuch in charge of the palace's logistics management has just lit more than thirty candles here, which can illuminate the pavilion where everyone is sitting and a small patch of woods nearby. It was pitch black. Wu Tianming was feeling very depressed. As soon as he sat down, he toasted to Wu Qi and the others, drinking nine large glasses of wine in one breath.
Just now in the court, Wu Qi and Wu Diya made a big bet. If Wu Qi could not let the Wu Dynasty unify the valley and completely wipe out several other countries within three months, Wu Qi and the others must keep all the flying sword magic weapons and elixirs. Once the medicine is out of Dawu, it will never be allowed to get even half a step closer to the territory of Dawu.
If Wu Qi and the others really help Wu Qi unify this river valley within three months, then Wu Dige will disband and return to his fields, all power will be handed over to Wu Tianming, and Wu Qi and the three of them will officially become the kingdom of Wu. They will assist Wu Tianming in handling the affairs of the Wu Dynasty.
After drinking several glasses of wine, Wu Tianming looked at Wu Qi worriedly. He opened his mouth to speak but stopped, and finally sighed deeply.
Wu Qi pretended to be surprised and asked, "Why is Your Majesty sighing?"
Wu Tianming pondered for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he said carefully word by word: "The three national masters have powerful magic and are omnipotent, but the bet with the regent is really...
Now the three national masters are the only strong reinforcements around Tianming. If there is a slight mistake and the time is delayed by three to five days, what will happen? "
Guiguzi sneered. He turned his head and suddenly glared at a big tree in the darkness. He heard a miserable howl. A figure on the big tree a hundred feet away was blown away hundreds of feet, and his hands were pricked. His feet fell into a lake and there was no sound again. Mo Di lightly slapped the ground, and with a loud 'boom', the entire back garden shook. Several vague howls came from the ground, and then there was no more movement.
Wu Tianming's face turned ugly. He smiled bitterly, raised his glass and said with a dry smile: "This, this..." He raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp, bowing his head and saying nothing for a long time.
Wu Qi shook his head and said: "Just kill these little guys for such trivial matters. Your Majesty, please be at ease. Brother Pindao is very confident in sweeping this valley within three months. Your Majesty should first think about how to control the government after March. Now, may I ask if your majesty has enough central manpower? Once the regent hands over the power, your majesty will need a large number of manpower to take over the government!"
Wu Tianming opened his mouth, his face turned red, white, and red again, but he couldn't say anything. Where does he have the available manpower to take over the government? He had only been on the throne for half a month, and everyone in the outer dynasty and the inner court was under control. Where was the chance to recruit people?
Wu Tianming is not even married yet, which means he doesn't even have a wife to rely on. His mother is just an ordinary palace maid, but she has two maternal uncles, both butchers with knives and selling meat. Can you expect two butchers to help him handle important affairs in the court?
Seeing Wu Tianming like this, Wu Qi couldn't help but smile. He pointed at the eunuchs standing around the pavilion and asked softly: "May I ask Your Majesty, are they worthy of Your Majesty's trust?"
Wu Tianming's stiff face became very soft. He glanced at the old eunuchs standing respectfully and said softly: "If it weren't for them, I would have been unable to move even an inch in this palace, and no one would be able to speak. "
Wu Qi nodded. He stood up slowly and walked to Wu Tianming. He took out a Nine-turn Fire Pill from his sleeve and placed it on the table. Then he reached into his sleeve, took out another Nine Turns Fire Pill and put it on it. Wu Tianming was stunned by the pills that Wu Qi kept taking out. He stared blankly at the pills that were accumulating on the table, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.
There were seventy-two old eunuchs standing around the pavilion. When Wu Qi took out the first Nine Turns Fire Pill, these old eunuchs held their breath and widened their eyes. They had been accompanying Wu Tianming all day long, and they had long seen the scene in the court where Wu Tianming took a Nine-turn Fire Pill and immediately turned into a golden immortal. Now that Wu Qi has taken out this elixir again, doesn't it mean that some of them have a chance to reach the sky in one step?
The old eunuchs' breathing suddenly became rapid. They stared at the elixir on the table that could transform them, and their eyes almost burst out of fire. How many elixirs does Wu Qi have? Which lucky ones among them get this opportunity? If there are only three or five magic pills, who will be the final lucky one?
One by one, the Nine Turns Fire Pills were placed neatly on the table, nine horizontally and eight vertically, for a total of seventy-two pills. The old eunuchs around the pavilion happened to each have one! Wu Tianming looked at Wu Qi tremblingly, his eyes becoming extremely bright. With seventy-two pills, seventy-two old eunuchs who were loyal to him, seventy-two golden immortal masters, and the unpredictable Wu Qi trio, Wu Tianming suddenly had endless confidence.
Wu Tianming, who was trembling all over, stood up and bowed deeply to Wu Qi: "Master, if you don't abandon Tianming and be stupid, please accept Tianming as your teacher. In this great world of Wu, Tianming is willing to share it with Master. Of!"
Wu Qi smiled with satisfaction. He didn't show any pretense and said simply: "Very good, just kowtow! From now on, you will be Pindao's disciple. Whoever dares to bully you, Pindao will naturally vent his anger on you."
Wu Tianming was overjoyed. He kowtowed loudly, and kowtowed to Wu Qi seventeen or eight times in a row, calling him master repeatedly.
Wu Qi sat back down, waved his hand generously and said with a smile: "Okay, divide these pills, as a teacher and protector for you, just take them with confidence, there will be no mistakes!" With an arrogant smile, don't Qi pointed at Wu Tianming and said with a smile: "Just now in the main hall, you took this elixir and became an immortal. Originally, Heaven knew that there would be thunder and disaster, but you just dispelled the cloud of disaster for me and you didn't know it!"
Wu Tianming said "Oh" as if he suddenly realized something. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Wu Qi a few more times. Then he stood up and happily distributed the elixir to the group of old eunuchs around him. Those old eunuchs were very discerning and knew things well. After they bowed down to receive the elixir from Wu Tianming, they all came to kowtow in front of Wu Qi and the three of them, shouting "ancestor" repeatedly, and waited until Wu Qi nodded. They knelt on the ground with great respect and took the elixir.
With Wu Qi as the protector, these old eunuchs absorbed the power of the medicine very smoothly. He even did not hesitate to spend his own essence and blood to help these waning old eunuchs pass the blood in their palaces and help them absorb the power of the medicine reliably. The clouds of calamity that were about to come were also dispersed by his huge spiritual consciousness. The mere golden immortal calamity was nothing more than a joke to Wu Qi now.
All the eyes and ears in the back garden were killed by Gui Guzi and Mo Zhai. Wu Qi covered the entire back garden with his spiritual consciousness, so no one could see what was going on here. Therefore, no one in the Wu Dynasty knew that Wu Tianming actually had a power that could shake the politics of the Wu Dynasty.
After busy for several hours, helping these old eunuchs who had no foundation in cultivation to stabilize their realm, Wu Qi carefully told them to be careful to adapt to their own strength in the past few days and not to get angry at will. They simply couldn't do it now. If you control your own magic power, you may bring the entire dynasty to the sky.
In the past few days, Wu Qi asked them to first adjust the aura in their bodies, and then gradually practice the cultivation code that Wu Qi taught them, starting with the most basic Tao techniques, and gradually get used to their huge magic power. Now they have no foundation at all, and they have the power of the Golden Immortal but can't even release a palm thunder. It will take at least a few months for them to really put it to use.
The ecstatic old eunuchs solemnly lined up in a row to kowtow to the three of Wu Qi and thank them. Wu Qi deliberately let them retain their original old appearance, and then gave each of them a spiritual talisman to hide their aura, and then made them stand up.
As soon as they stood up, the expressions of these old eunuchs suddenly changed. They looked at Wu Tianming in panic, grabbed their crotches with both hands, and then fell to their knees and shouted, 'Death penalty'. These old eunuchs who had been cleansed since childhood were horrified to find that the parts of their bodies that had been separated for decades had actually grown back, and because of the abundant blood and energy, they now stood tall and tall with their chests held high. With.
Wu Tianming looked at these frightened old eunuchs and hurriedly asked for the clues. He couldn't help but smile and comforted these old people generously. Having achieved the level of Golden Immortal, any physical disability will naturally be repaired. Have you ever heard of the saying that a golden immortal is a eunuch?
Guiguzi smiled lightly and said: "The so-called spring comes out of dead trees, which is an auspicious thing."
Wu Tianming laughed loudly, raised his glass and encouraged the old eunuchs to drink. He was even more generous and rewarded these old eunuchs to sit down and drink together. For a while, the whole garden was full of laughter, and everyone was drunk.
Early on the next morning, Da Wu's chief minister in charge of military affairs entered the palace and asked three national advisers to receive the 100,000 soldiers assigned to them.
