Chapter 53 Conditions

The ascension gradually dissipated, Qin Su stood up and looked at Dan Taiyun.

Dan Taiyun's expression was a little complicated. She thought that Li Xuan would lose, and that Li Xuan would lose both sides with Li Daoxu, but she never thought about this result. Li Daoxu actually used herself to help Li Xuandu. Is this the master, apprentice and son?

Or is it the general trend?

Qin Su asked softly: "Senior Dan Tai isn't leaving yet?"

Dan Taiyun came back to his senses and frowned and thought about the situation.

After Li Daoxu was gone, there were still four immortals left in the imperial capital, but the people in the Dao Sect accounted for the majority. If they wanted to continue fighting, they were afraid that the consequences would be unpredictable.

But if she left rashly, Li Xuandu and Qin Qing's father-in-law and son-in-law went to war against the Confucian Sect, then the Confucian Sect would probably not be the opponent. In this way, it would become a situation of being defeated one by one, so she could not leave.

Dan Taiyun stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Let's see, let's talk about it."

In front of the Imperial Heaven Prison, the shadow of the mountain slowly dissipated. The people of Ziyan Mountain were not dead, but were just in a very embarrassing state. Wu Xian returned to his normal size and stood beside Qin Qing.

Qin Qing and Old Man Long, who had just witnessed Li Daoxu's ascension in the sun, were both in silence.

Now a difficult problem is in front of the Confucian Sect. If the Taoist Sect intends to take down the Confucian Sect in one go, how should the Confucian Sect deal with it? Although the Confucian Sect has made corresponding preparations, in addition to the high priests, Lu Beiqu, Qi Foyan and many other Confucian Sect masters have entered the capital one after another. Now there are also many Confucian Sect masters in the imperial capital, but if Li Xuandu and Qin Qingzhen are going to attack, the outcome will be unpredictable.

At this moment, Qin Qing spoke: "Let's talk about the conditions."

Old Man Long asked, "What are the conditions?"

Qin Qing said: "Zifu is a man who keeps his promises and is loyal to him. Just as he agreed with the Confucian school, the empress dowager must be handed over to us for disposal, and the emperor can take charge of the rule."

Both sides knew very well that the Taoist sect and the Confucian sect were now afraid of both sides, and both sides were both concerned about each other. If they really wanted to fight to the death, it would inevitably be a situation where both sides suffered losses. The winning side could only be a miserable victory, which is a situation that neither side wanted to see.

Even if the Dao Sect has a greater chance of winning, in the eyes of the Taoist people, the general trend lies with me, why bother to fight to the death at this time? Wouldn’t it be better to slowly kill less people?

Then temporary peace talks are the best result.

Old Man Long said: "It is a matter of course to overturn the case for the four ministers, but it is not advisable to involve too much, it is best to be limited to the Empress Dowager alone."

This is already very straightforward. Old Man Long’s implication is to regard Xie Zhi as an abandoned son, but he wants to protect Silijian and the fake immortals.

Qin Qing said: "The Later Party has been doing something wrong for many years and punished the Empress Dowager alone. I am afraid that the public's anger will not be calmed down. How can Mr. Long explain to the world? I am afraid that the Qing Dynasty in the court and the country will not accept it."

Old Man Long did not refute, knowing that Qin Qing was telling the truth, so he glanced at King Jin.

The King of Jin was shocked.

Qin Qing shook his head and said, "It's not enough."

Old Man Long pondered for a moment and said, "In addition to reversing the case for the four ministers, three more points will be added. First, Liu Yi, the chief of the Sili Supervisory Commission, has committed many evil deeds and should be punished and imprisoned. Because he involved the case of theft of official silver from the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau and the Maritime Bureau, and had close contact with the Zaoge Sect, the Taoist Sect was dealt with. Second, Princess Xuanzhen took over as the post of Zongren Mansion Ling. Third, a group of people from the Later Party, such as King Jin, King Tang, King Shu, etc., had ulterior motives, and all of them were removed from the king's title and handed over to the Zongren Mansion to be detained."

King Jin's body became weak and almost couldn't stand, but was held back by the Red Sheep.

The King of Jin never expected that the world was turning upside down in an instant.

He had just negotiated the conditions with the Confucian Sect and asked the Confucian Sect to take action. Afterwards, he was willing to give up his power and be a prince without power, and would be a rich man. In a blink of an eye, the Confucian Sect betrayed his faith and regarded him as an abandoned son. Not only could he not become a rich man, but he would also become a prisoner under the ranks, and his fortune and life were in the hands of others.

Qin Qing did not refuse this time.

Old Man Long changed his tone and said, "We have several conditions for Confucianism. Please agree with Mr. Qin."

Qin Qing nodded slightly: "Mr. Long, please speak."

Old Man Long said: "First, the six seals of the Emperor must belong to my Confucian school."

The Six Seals of the Emperor are related to the imperial city formation and are also the key to whether the Confucian Sect can defend the imperial capital. It is reasonable for the Confucian Sect to take away these six jade seals and to protect Yang Lu, who has always been in charge of the Six Seals of the Emperor, to be in charge of the Six Seals of the Emperor.

Qin Qing had expected this, and did not hesitate too much, nodded and said, "Yes."

Old Man Long smiled a little on his face and continued, "At that time, Zulong ascended the throne when he was young, the empress dowager and the prime minister were in power. The empress dowager had an affair with others and gave birth to two sons, intending to rebel. Later, Zulong killed the prime minister. The empress dowager's two sons and confronted him. Because the minister advised him, he let the empress dowager go and imprisoned him. Who is Zulong? He is still concerned about human relations. If we discuss the crimes of the empress dowager, one will disobey others and cause chaos, and the other will shake the foundation of the country and make the royal family shame, so..."

Qin Qing emphasized, "Mr. Long should understand that the consensus on the conditions we have reached before are based on the treatment of the empress dowager. If the Confucian clan does not agree to the treatment of the empress dowager, then there is no way to discuss these conditions, so we have to find out the difference from the sword and weapon."

"Mr. Qin misunderstood." Old Man Long waved his hand, "It's not that he would not deal with the Empress Dowager. The Later Party has been in chaos for many years. All the Confucians regard the Empress Dowager as the root of chaos. How could he protect her? I mean that the Empress Dowager can be dealt with, but not to deal with it publicly, and not to openly discuss the crime, so that she can die from sudden illness. Of course, if Mr. Qingping is willing to give in and imprison her, we have no objection."

Qin Qing pondered silently.

Throughout history, there has never been a precedent for the empress dowager to be executed by a crime. At most, it was executed secretly, and it was claimed to be killed by sudden illness. As Long said, the empress dowager like Zulong was widowed and pregnant and intended to rebel. Zulong could not even treat the empress dowager. If the precedent was set today, it would probably become a joke similar to "Why did Your Majesty rebellion?" and was passed on to later generations. This is the fundamental reason why the Confucians would not agree.

However, Qin Qing was a little confused, and whether Li Xuan agreed to give in.

Old Man Long saw Qin Qing’s embarrassment and said, “Mr. Qingping has always been very wise. For the sake of the country and the people of the world, he should make concessions. As for the right and wrong of the Empress Dowager or the Four Ministers, who are loyal and kind, who are treacherous and treacherous, there are public discussions between the world, and there are public discussions in the glorious history. Why do we need to discuss our crimes?”

It has to be said that as a Confucian scholar, the first half of the words are clichés and empty words, but the second half is difficult to argue.

Qin Qing said: "You and I will not say the crimes of the Empress Dowager. There will be future generations who will say this in the glorious history. Mr. Long means this, right?"

Old Man Long did not speak and agreed to Qin Qing's statement.

Qin Qing pondered for a moment and said, "The way of heaven is eternal and unchanging, but human ethics and morality have been constantly changing from ancient times to the present. During the Zulong period, it was not a sin for the empress dowager to raise a man's father, and it was not a sin for women to remarry. But since the Neo-Confucian sages, these have become sins. If we use the morality of today to accuse the morality of the ancients in the past, some people will use their morality to criticize the morality of us ancient people in the future. Today's Confucian sects the relatives and hides each other, perhaps the Confucian sects thousands of years later advocate the destruction of relatives for justice. Today, I conceal my sins for my family, which is moral and praised, but in the eyes of later generations thousands of years later, this is immoral and will be criticized. If we let the empress dowager go today, then what will future generations view us after thousands of years?"

Old man Long fell into silence.

Chiyang Weng said, "How can the predecessors manage the affairs of future generations? Mr. Qin is a mess of mediocre people."

Qin Qing smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then we might as well put aside whether to discuss the crime for the time being. I wonder what you think?"

Old Man Long was silent for a long time and nodded, "That's all."

Qin Qing asked, "Then is there a third point?"

Old Man Long said: "As for the third point, the court intends to appoint Mr. Qingping as the real person of the National Normal University, Mr. Qin as the King of Liao, and Miss Qin as the princess. I wonder what Mr. Qin and Mr. Qingping mean? "

Qin Qing refused without thinking, "Eat the king's fortune and loyalty to the king. I, Qin, am used to being free and unwilling to serve the emperor, so naturally I don't want to eat the king's fortune. I appreciate the kindness of the court. As for the Zi Mansion, he would most likely not agree."

The smile on the old man Long's face froze.

Qin Qing was unwilling to accept the title of King Liao, so he was unwilling to set the title of king and minister. Without the title of king and minister, what was the purpose?

It is indescribable.

But the situation is like this, and the Confucian school is helpless.

Old Man Long quickly returned to normal and smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then forget it."

Just as the two of them were talking, they were determined to move towards the bureau, and the others had no room for interruption.

King Jin's eyes were lost and his soul was lost. He felt weak all over, as if his soul would fly out of the sky at any time.

Old Man Long glanced at King Jin and ordered: "Send King Jin to the clan mansion. In addition, inform the high priest and mountain lords in Beijing as soon as possible, and ask them to inform the officials in Beijing, and then implement it as soon as possible, so that no one can ask for advice."

Chiyang Weng and Jinchansou took the order and left.

Qin Qing and Wu Xian left the Imperial Heaven Supervision.

Dan Taiyun on the top of the city saw this and whispered: "The dust has settled."

After saying that, she turned around and left the city and headed northwest.

Qin Su vomited a heavy breath of turbid air, as if he had put down a heavy burden.

However, no one spoke rashly, but was waiting for Qin Su to speak. Soon, Qin Su would not be Miss Qin, but the most important Mrs. Qin.

On the other hand, the confrontation in front of the Altar of the People in the country continued, but the people in the Taoist sect were leisurely, while on the other hand, they were ashamed and full of despair.

No one expected that the invincible Great Sword Immortal would lose, and that evil star demon would win.

As the Great Sword Immortal himself said, if you win, you win, if you lose, you lose. If you talk about anything else, it will be useless.

Now both sides are waiting for the movement in the country.
