Protagonist:
Xuan Ge
"To establish the heart for heaven and earth, to establish the destiny for the people, to inherit the lost learning of the past sages, to open peace for all generations."
Ling Sha softly repeated these four sentences that shook the Huan Yu, carefully savoring the weight within them.
As Xuan Ge's pillow-side person, she knew everything about Xuan Ge, but these four sentences still amazed her.
She had never thought that in the Emperor's heart, there was actually hidden such a grand ideal.
No wonder he had always been persistent about becoming Emperor, persistent about supporting the entire Xian Zhou's future.
Xuan Ge's mood was pleasant at this moment, the smile at the corner of his mouth impossible to hide.
These four sentences, he had held them in for a full eight hundred years!
Now they could finally be proclaimed to the world, completely releasing the ambition in his heart.
During his time as the Shen Wei General, he fundamentally had no qualifications to speak such words; at that time, he was merely a leader who held a private army, and even with ambition, it was difficult to implement;
But now, he was already the Xian Zhou Xuan Emperor, he had the qualifications!
Wei Zheng froze in place, eyes wide, staring at Xuan Ge for a long time, actually unable to return to his senses.
This trip of his, he originally came on Hua Fei's orders, wanting to use the pretext of remonstrance to make the Emperor get closer to Hua Fei, and not indulge in beauty and neglect government affairs.
But Xuan Ge's these four sentences completely shattered his original intention.
He had never thought that the Xuan Emperor's scope would actually be this grand; his own little thoughts, in front of these four sentences of oath, appeared so tiny and laughable.
Seeing Wei Zheng frozen in place, a trace of complacency flashed in Xuan Ge's eyes.
It seems, this "showing off" of his, the posture was both high and grand.
Xuan Ge forcefully endured the smile at the corner of his mouth, tone deliberately flat as he spoke: "Beloved Minister, do you know my ideal now?"
Wei Zheng finally slowly returned to his senses; he did not answer immediately.
Instead, he slowly lowered his head, meticulously tidying his court robes, bit by bit smoothing out the wrinkles on the fabric, striving to make the court robes tidied symmetrically and neatly, without the slightest oversight.
This series of actions made Xuan Ge's eyebrow twitch, a faint bad premonition rising in his heart.
Could it be that he played too big a hand?
Once tidied properly, Wei Zheng "putong" knelt on both knees, cupped his fists with both hands, voice loud and respectful, carrying a few parts guilt and reverence:
"The Emperor is wise! The fault lies with this minister, please Emperor mete out punishment!"
Xuan Ge looked at the urgency in Wei Zheng's eyes, even faintly glistening with tears, and his heart was even more puzzled.
What crime did Wei Zheng ultimately commit, to be this agitated.
But he could also see that Wei Zheng at this moment was truly suppressed by his own four sentences.
"Beloved Minister, no need for this." Xuan Ge's tone softened, gently soothing.
"No! This minister deceived the Monarch! Please Emperor punish severely!"
Wei Zheng kowtowed heavily, firmly refusing Xuan Ge's soothing, expression resolute.
"This minister harbored private thoughts, failed to fathom the Emperor's grand designs, instead measured a gentleman's belly with a petty person's heart; this is the crime of deceiving the Monarch, cannot be lightly pardoned!"
Xuan Ge could not prevail over him, so simply asked: "Then you say, what deceiving-the-Monarch crime do you ultimately have?"
He wanted to see just what medicine Wei Zheng was selling in his gourd.
"Your Majesty, this minister received Hua Fei's orders to come serve as Chief Strategist, but actually had ulterior motives."
Wei Zheng took a deep breath, calmly stating his purpose: "Hua Fei worries for the Emperor, fears the Emperor indulges in harem beauty and neglects government affairs, so had this minister take the opportunity to remonstrate the Emperor, to get closer to her more, and focus on court politics."
"This minister failed to see through the Emperor's ambition, instead rashly speculated; this is a major blunder!"
After speaking these words, the guilt in Wei Zheng's heart dissipated considerably, his expression also becoming much more at ease.
Hearing this, Xuan Ge immediately relaxed, couldn't help but laugh.
He thought it was some earth-shattering matter, that actually made Hua Fei specially invite Wei Zheng to "retort" at him.
Turns out it was just worrying he would indulge in the harem, fearing he would neglect government affairs.
"We know, We were wrong, neglected Hua Fei's feelings; afterwards We will go back to see her." Xuan Ge's tone carried a few parts apology.
"The Emperor is wise!"
Wei Zheng once again kowtowed heavily, his face finally revealing a relieved expression.
"Enough, We are tired. Matters related to the Chief Strategist, you can go find Jing Tian to familiarize yourself with."
Xuan Ge waved his hand, tone carrying a few parts weariness.
He dealt with everyone with ease, only feared Wei Zheng; he had always been carefully weighing his words, afraid of being caught out by Wei Zheng.
More importantly, he had to first coax Ling Sha; these past few days of government affairs were all handled by Ling Sha in his stead, she must be exhausted.
Wei Zheng dared not speak further, respectfully cupped his hands in salute, retreated three steps, confirmed there was no discourtesy, then turned and slowly withdrew from the Shen Wei Da Dian.
Once Wei Zheng left, Xuan Ge immediately couldn't wait to reach out, pulling Ling Sha into his arms in one go.
Ling Sha obediently sat in Xuan Ge's arms, feeling his restless hands lightly roaming over her body, her cheeks faintly reddening, she spoke softly:
"Your Majesty, this is the Huang Gong Dian Dian, absolutely must not be willful~"
"These two days, you've worked hard."
Xuan Ge did not stop the movements of his hands; he accompanied Hei Ta, Ruan Mei, and also saw March 7th through backtracking, throwing all government affairs to Ling Sha, she must be worn out.
"Concubine is not tired~"
Ling Sha lightly kissed Xuan Ge on the face, eyes full of affection, then smiled teasingly:
"The Emperor probably wants to go find Da Li Hua, right? Her temperament is most urgent, she certainly can't wait to see the Emperor."
"You understand Us best after all."
Xuan Ge smiled and nodded, "She has already sent word to Us, saying she found a Void Nuclear Warhead, and wants Us to accompany her on a trip to Pinocchio."
"Hah hmm~~"
Ling Sha glanced lightly at Xuan Ge, her eyes holding not the slightest displeasure, only a love so deep it could not be dissolved.
How could she not see that Xuan Ge was "not yet full"?
Tonight, she would pull Xing Xiao along, and properly keep His Majesty company.
"Although Da Li Hua's temperament is a bit unorthodox, and she loves to cause trouble, this time, she has given His Majesty a justified opportunity."
Ling Sha leaned her head lightly on Xuan Ge's shoulder, full of attachment.
"That kid Sunday, did he cut his hair again?"
Xuan Ge pinched lightly, changed the topic, his tone carrying a few parts helplessness and amusement.
"Hmm hmm~"
Ling Sha did not answer directly, merely letting out a soft coquettish hum, that tone clearly saying "it's more or less like that."
"This kid...."
Xuan Ge was angered into laughter, the current Sunday giving off the vibe of Chen Xiang splitting the mountain to save his mother.
In his eyes, this uncle of his is probably a heinous villain who kidnapped his mother.
"When will His Majesty set sail for Pinocchio?" Ling Sha raised her head, looking at Xuan Ge, her eyes carrying a few parts anticipation.
She actually also wanted to go stroll around Pinocchio with Da Li Hua.
More importantly, she had to be on guard against that "female colleague" mentioned by Da Li Hua.
That woman called Black Swan, just like Da Li Hua, is not a law-abiding sort, each and every one a bad woman grown on Xuan Ge's heart.
"No rush."
Xuan Ge laughed lightly, his tone full of anticipation, "Sunday is about to ascend to godhood, he will become the Order Aeon Taiyi, and the Astral Express will become his weapon."
"We want to see just how this kid intends to 'split the mountain to save his mother', and oppose Us."
"Split the mountain to save his mother?"
Ling Sha blanked for a moment, then smiled helplessly.
Luo Rui Ya is currently touring the Luo Fu Xian Zhou with Jing Liu, eating well and sleeping well, where is there any need for Sunday to come "save" her?
This kid, probably has an obsession too deep, and has driven himself into a dead end.
Above Pinocchio, Sunday was holding the communicator, looking at the message sent by his mother Luo Rui Ya, the joy originally on his face instantly disappearing without a trace, his face dark as a pot bottom.
On the communicator, prominently displayed were the four sentences Xuan Ge proclaimed to the world: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, inherit the lost learning of past sages, open eternal peace for all generations."
Sha Jin stood to the side, leaned his head over to look at the content on the communicator, and was likewise shaken, unable to recover for a long time.
Shaking the Mother Goddess for ten thousand years..
"What a joke!"
Sunday violently gripped the communicator, fiercely pressed the lock screen button, no longer willing to look at those four sentences.
He could not accept no matter what that his always-hostile uncle could actually speak words of such grand scope.
Because the range of motion was too large, a pure white feather fell from the top of his head.
Sha Jin hurriedly came to his senses, picked up the feather, and lightly inserted it back onto the top of Sunday's head.
"Kakavasha, if you're idle with nothing to do, go stroll the streets, don't bother me here."
Sunday impatiently plucked out that feather, threw it to the side, and looked at Sha Jin with displeasure.
"Don't be so fired up~"
Sha Jin didn't care in the slightest about his attitude, his right hand playing with a gold coin, the coin nimbly flipping between his fingers.
"Brother-in-law didn't directly ascend to godhood because of these four sentences, so you should be secretly glad, Lao Ri."
"Hehe~"
Sunday dry-laughed twice, Sha Jin's words unintentionally dealing him a critical hit.
He had to admit, he needed to re-evaluate his uncle, the impact these four sentences gave him was simply too great.
