Li Shimin: You rebellious son, how dare you plot to usurp the throne!

Chapter 12 Li Shimin: You rebellious son, how dare you plot to usurp the throne!

"What is meant by 'One Emperor, Nine Directions, and Thirty-Six Envoys'?" Ye Wenhua quickly asked.

The expressions of the old ancestor and others standing to the side also became solemn.

This is no longer child's play. Since Gu Changqing has brought up the will of the gods, it must be something very important.

This may be a matter of personal interest, and cannot be taken lightly.

"The Divine Court takes the Primordial One Realm as the Divine Realm, and your worlds are composed of the myriad realms of heaven and earth plus the primordial world as the material realm."

The Emperor of the Divine Court, myself being the Divine Emperor, is governed by nine directional divine systems as his assistants, thirty-six guardian divine messengers, and countless other deities.

As soon as Gu Changqing finished speaking, Carlo and the others' eyes lit up.

Even the heavens and the like are the same.

They never expected that Gu Changqing would delegate authority to them.

The Nine Gods System simply means there are nine God-Kings.

After thinking for a moment, Carlo asked expectantly, "Who can be the Nine Directions God King?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Changqing couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Don't say I'm being unfair. Whoever among you can upgrade their respective small worlds into minor worlds can be crowned the Lord of a God System."

After speaking, Gu Changqing looked at the people like the Celestial Ancestor who had not yet created the world.

"And you? I don't expect to make a choice immediately, but I hope you can take over the positions of the Thirty-Six Envoys."

The Celestial Ancestor couldn't help but smile wryly at this, but under Gu Changqing's divine might and the gaze of the gods, they still agreed to Gu Changqing's proposal.

Although the Thirty-Six Envoys hold sinecure positions, they are still required to protect the divine way when necessary.

Thus, witnessed by the will of the gods, and with the consent of the Celestial Ancestor and others.

Their divine fortune began to rise steadily, reaching an extremely high level.

Furthermore, their understanding of the laws and principles of the Dao has also greatly improved.

This scene made everyone present extremely envious.

However, the thought that he had the help of the small world and that his comprehension was not necessarily lower than theirs made him feel much better.

"Alright, let's adjourn the meeting!"

Having said that, the Holy Spirit Emperor's avatar's mind left the divine position.

……

At the summit of Mount Buzhou.

Gu Changqing, the Tree of Life, extended his divine sense to perceive the conflict between the immortals, demons, and gods within hundreds of billions of miles of Buzhou Mountain.

Under Gu Changqing's orders, most of the innate deities chose to lie low.

However, many innate saints were still forced by demonic cultivators to become opportunists.

Many innate deities were also encountered by powerful immortals, and under their guidance, a considerable number of them chose to abandon the divine path and devote themselves to the immortal path.

Admittedly, compared to the Immortal Path, the Divine Path has certain constraints and is not as free.

However, the cultivation resources needed by immortal cultivators are indispensable, and embarking on the path of competing for resources will inevitably lead to battles with others.

Therefore, the safety of the Immortal Path is far less than that of the Divine Path.

After all, cultivators of the divine path are not easily killed. Even if they die, as long as their own laws and great Dao remain intact, they will eventually be resurrected.

Unlike the immortal path, where death means the annihilation of the body and the dissipation of the Dao, or even complete annihilation.

……

at the same time.

The world of the Tang Dynasty.

Harem.

"Welcome, Your Majesty, Your Highness, His Majesty has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Empress Zhangsun forgot her surprise and blushed deeply as she hurriedly searched for her clothes, since she was currently naked.

She only had time to put on her red undergarment before Li Shimin entered.

Seeing Empress Zhangsun in such a state, Guanyinbi couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Guanyinbi, what happened?"

Empress Changsun quickly replied, "I just finished working in the fields and was just about to change my clothes."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin nodded and said, "So that's how it is. Guanyinbi, you've worked hard."

"Now that you are the Empress, you still have to do manual labor every day. You don't need to do that at all."

Empress Zhangsun shook her head and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, it is precisely because I am the Empress that I must work every day. Only in this way can I understand the suffering of the people."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin said with emotion, "Empress, you are truly my wise and capable wife!"

At this moment, Empress Zhangsun waved her hand, dismissing the palace maids, and then said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say to you privately."

After everyone had left the room, Empress Zhangsun whispered, "Your Majesty, today I encountered something very strange and unbelievable."

"I was added to an organization called the Multiverse Friends Group."

"How should I put it? Your Majesty can understand it as if I have obtained a magical artifact that allows people from different worlds to communicate."

"Every interaction brings a reward from the immortals."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's mouth dropped open in astonishment: "What? Such a thing actually happened?"

Empress Changsun nodded and said, "Today, I also obtained a youth-preserving elixir and two thousand-year-old wild ginseng roots!"

"This wild ginseng, I believe, can prolong life!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin jumped to his feet in shock: "What?! It can increase lifespan?! That's true?!"

Empress Zhangsun nodded and said, "Of course it's true! That's what that amazing system told me."

After saying this, Empress Zhangsun waved her jade hand, and two fresh ginseng roots, each two feet long and still attached, appeared on the table.

"Your Majesty, this is the special thousand-year-old ginseng I obtained. The system calls it the thousand-year-old spiritual ginseng to distinguish it."

This sudden appearance startled Li Shimin: "Guanyinbi, have you also mastered immortal magic?"

Empress Changsun chuckled and said, "No, didn't I just say this is the system space?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin exclaimed in amazement, "Truly amazing!"

Empress Zhangsun picked up a ginseng root and placed it in Li Shimin's hand: "Your Majesty, I have already washed this ginseng root."

"Please join me, Your Majesty."

"May Your Majesty and I live forever and become a divine couple."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin said, moved, "Good!"

"If I could live forever with Guanyinbi and enjoy worldly riches, that would be my wish."

Afterwards, the two of them took the ginseng together.

Instantly, I felt incredibly energetic, and all the hidden ailments in my body seemed to have disappeared!

Empress Zhangsun seemed to have thought of something and said, "By the way, Your Majesty, I have also obtained a shocking secret, which concerns the life and death of our Great Tang."

Li Shimin asked, "What is it?"

Empress Zhangsun said, "The immortal said that the Tang Dynasty almost perished in the hands of our sons."

Li Shimin was shocked and jumped up from his seat again: "What?! Is that so?!"

He roared, "Bastard!"

"How could this happen?"

"Is our son Chengqian really that incompetent?"

"Does this mean that if my Li family's empire is handed over to this crown prince, it will end up like Qin Shi Huang? Like Emperor Yang of Sui?"

"My Li family's empire has perished after three generations. Wouldn't I then become like Emperor Yang of Sui?"

"No, absolutely not!"

"That unfilial son! Since that's the case, I will depose him as crown prince tomorrow."

Empress Zhangsun immediately pulled Li Shimin back and said hastily, "Your Majesty, please do not panic. Let me finish what I have to say."

Li Shimin then sat down and said, "Does the Empress have anything else to say? Are you going to plead for that rebellious son?"

Empress Zhangsun replied, "Your Majesty, they only said that our Li dynasty almost perished."

"But from what I heard, it didn't mean they were destroyed."

"At the same time, Your Majesty has misunderstood. The other party said that the Li family's empire almost perished in the hands of our sons, but did not mention that it was because of Chengqian."

Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this: "So that's how it is."

At that moment, Li Chengqian, who was practicing archery in the Eastern Palace, had no idea that just a moment ago, he had almost been deposed as crown prince.

If he knew, I wonder if he would be so shocked that he would curse Gu Changqing across time and space?

At this moment, Li Shimin frowned again and said, "Since it's not because of the Crown Prince..."

"Then I understand. It is my other sons who covet the throne, are dissatisfied with the Crown Prince, and want to usurp the throne, is that it?"

"Good, very good! It seems I need to find a way to put an end to their hopes."

Empress Zhangsun patted his hand again and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the situation isn't what you think."

"They said that you and my third son will inherit the throne."

Our third son is named Li Zhi.

"That's what they said exactly."

"Your third son, Li Zhi, needs to be taught a lesson. Never let him become emperor in the future."

"That was a spendthrift son; he almost ruined the Tang Dynasty."

This surprised Li Shimin: "What? Isn't my crown prince Chengqian? Why hasn't he inherited the throne?"

At this time, Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun only had two sons and one daughter. Li Zhi had not yet been born, so Li Shimin was even more surprised.

Is the other party truly a member of the immortal family?

They know everything about the future.

"It's the third son! Why isn't our eldest son, Chengqian, inheriting the throne? Does this mean our eldest son will die young?"

"Even so, according to the order of inheritance, there's still the second son, so how could it be the third son's turn?"

"What's going on?"
