Chapter 845: Huangfu Renhe's choice, Li Shimin's prestige (4/5, seeking subscriptions)

~6 min read 1,120 words

Ending the chat, Ouyang Mingri opened his eyes and told them about the situation in the chat group.

"His Majesty Taizong is right; even if Huangfu Renhe doesn't agree, it's fine." The Frontier Elder nodded in agreement, "He can completely not take Sifang City and occupy the places outside Sifang City. With His Majesty Taizong's means, plus the immortal arts, he can completely end the war in the world and return peace to the world."

"This can also be considered a matter of immeasurable merit."

The Frontier Elder is a divine physician and has the most feelings about the affairs of the world.

At this time, the Great Tang is crumbling, and the people are living in misery.

He walks the world and often sees natural and man-made disasters, with people displaced and bones exposed in the wild.

He has the heart to save the world, but he is powerless.

In this world, no matter how high the martial arts, there is a limit.

Besides, even if he relied on force to raise a force, how could he ensure he could govern it well?

He is a divine physician, treating illnesses and saving people is fine, but governing a country, he is just a layman.

"Since that's the case, let's split up and act." Gu Mutian pondered, "I will go find Sima Changfeng to retrieve the Dragon Soul Saber, and you go find Huangfu Renhe to discuss it."

"Good."

Thus, the group split into two teams, Gu Mutian's team and the Frontier Elder's team of three.

Three days later.

Sifang City was in sight, and Shangguan Yan was a bit impatient.

"Finding Huangfu Renhe and completing the mission, I can also find my mother."

She actually doesn't care too much about the country and the world.

After all, she doesn't have much desire for fame and fortune.

The reason she entered the Jianghu was just for revenge and to complete the family's mission.

The three entered the city and soon found Stinky Tofu—Huangfu Renhe, and brought him to a remote place.

"What are you looking for me for?" Huangfu Renhe was surprised, "Could it be that there is some difficult matter you need my help with?"

Ouyang Mingri laughed: "It's not that we need your help, but we want to tell you a major event."

Thus, the three told him about his life story.

"Impossible, I am the son of the former City Lord of Sifang City?" Stinky Tofu simply couldn't believe it, "You guys didn't get it wrong?"

"We didn't get it wrong." The Frontier Elder laughed, "This matter is not only known to us; you will know as soon as you go home and ask."

Stinky Tofu heard this and went in a hurry; a moment later, he came back.

"Believe it now?" The Frontier Elder asked.

Huangfu Renhe nodded: "I believe it. What is the matter you are looking for me for? Could it be that you want me to be the City Lord of Sifang City? No, I can't do it."

He felt under immense pressure just being a constable, let alone being the head of a force.

Thinking that the whole city relied on him for food, he felt a sense of suffocation.

He didn't have this ability!

"Are you not going to take revenge anymore?" Ouyang Mingri was surprised, "You know, it was my father who killed your father back then."

"Revenge?" Huangfu Renhe's eyes became sharp, "This naturally must be avenged. However, these are two different things. I can't bear the responsibility of the lives of all the people in the city."

"Good." Ouyang Mingri nodded, "If you want to take revenge, feel free to come in the future; I won't stop you."

"As for Sifang City, I have a proposal."

Saying this, he told the previous plan.

"Taizong Li Shimin?"

"Immortal?"

Huangfu Renhe was stunned.

Are these people trying to bluff me!

His Majesty Taizong, that is already a figure from hundreds of years ago.

"If you don't believe it, you can talk to His Majesty Taizong yourself."

With a wave of his hand, a light gate appeared in the void.

The next moment, a man wearing a dragon robe walked out from it.

That extraordinary demeanor, noble temperament, absolutely could not be faked by an ordinary person.

Position changes temperament, nourishment changes the body.

Only a person who has been above others for a long time can cultivate the corresponding temperament.

With such an aura, Huangfu Renhe couldn't help but compare him to Ouyang Feiying.

This comparison, the difference was immediately clear.

A real dragon and a loach, there is simply no possibility of comparison.

"Are you really His Majesty Taizong?" Huangfu Renhe asked.

Li Shimin laughed: "Correct. However, I am not the Taizong of your world."

"Stinky Tofu pays respects to Your Majesty." Huangfu Renhe bowed down, "Please, Your Majesty, take charge of Sifang City!"

"Oh!" Li Shimin was curious, "Although this Sifang City is located in the border area, it is a great foundation; you don't want it?"

"I don't want it." Huangfu Renhe was very firm, "There are hundreds of thousands of people here, and I don't have the confidence to lead them to live a life without worry about food and clothing."

Benevolence is a beautiful quality!

However, benevolence cannot make an army strong, nor can it make subjects wise, nor can it make the people eat their fill.

Huangfu Renhe has a very clear understanding of himself.

As a constable, he can still help others within his ability.

Becoming a City Lord, he might not be able to lead Sifang City to glory.

And Taizong Li Shimin, a legendary figure, his governing talent was already well-known, and even in the border area, Huangfu Renhe knew this emperor extremely well.

Li Shimin taking charge of Sifang City, he felt it was very much to his liking.

"Good." Li Shimin nodded, "I can guarantee you that you won't regret it. This Sifang City will definitely become a famous city in the world, and the people under its rule will live and work in peace, never suffering from hunger and cold again."

"Huangfu Renhe thanks Your Majesty!"

Stinky Tofu was overjoyed.

In this way, he could be considered to have entrusted the foundation created by his father to a trustworthy person.

Back then, the reason Huangfu Zhong and his brother established Sifang City was to take in displaced people, not for power. ===== CHAPTER 846 =====

Chou Doufu was overjoyed.

With this, he could finally entrust the foundation his father had built to someone trustworthy.

Back then, the reason Huangfu Zhong and his brothers established Sifang City was to take in displaced commoners, not for the sake of power.
