Chapter 12 Emperor Zhou's Visit
"Excuse me, is Zhang Li here?"
This is the third person who asked this kind of question today. Yuan Wuxing even wants to put a sign outside the door that says "Zhang Li is not here."
"Yes, you also want to persuade Senior Zhang to withdraw the application?"
The visitor was wearing a cloak and his face could not be seen clearly. When he heard Yuan Wuxing's question, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"So many people have come to Zhang Li? I thought our Great Zhou was bright and clear, and there wouldn't be too much dirt and filth."
"Yes, you were the 21st or 22nd one, I can't remember, so take my advice and give up."
"You must be Yuan Wuxing, the owner of this house. You misunderstood. I am Zhang Li's friend. I heard that he came to Da Zhou, so I came to visit him to reminisce about the past."
Just as Yuan Wuxing was about to say something, he heard Jiang Li shouting in the room: "Wuxing, let him in, he is indeed my friend."
Jiang Li spoke, and Yuan Wuxing naturally and politely invited the cloaked man into the house.
"If I hadn't recognized your handwriting on the application, I wouldn't have known you had arrived in Da Zhou. Why didn't you tell me? I wanted to welcome you."
"I just wanted to go home to do some things and leave, but who knew it would involve such a large group of people."
The man took off his cloak, revealing a handsome face and regular features. The most eye-catching thing was his double pupils.
"Your Majesty!"
Yuan Wuxing cried out in shock, his brain going blank.
"You haven't told him who you are yet, Jiang Li?" Princess Zhou only glanced at the shocked Yuan Wuxing.
"There's nothing I can do. Who told him to say bad things about me as soon as we met? How can I get the truth from him if I don't change my identity?" Jiang Li shrugged helplessly, adjusted his facial features slightly, and returned to his original appearance.
"You, ah no, you are the Emperor Jiang?!"
The moment Jiang Li turned back to his original appearance, Yuan Wuxing's mind went blank and he completely gave up thinking. When he came to his senses, his face flushed.
Before, he told Jiang Li in a mysterious manner that "Jiang Renhuang was behind the baby stealing case", "Jiang Renhuang condoned his cousin's practice of magic", and "Jiang Renhuang practiced magic himself".
Yuan Wuxing just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Princess Zhou looked at Jiang Li with a half-smile: "If Lao Bai knew that you were a Taoist priest, he would be so happy that he wouldn't sleep for a year."
"A temporary identity, a temporary identity." Jiang Li felt uncomfortable being stared at by Princess Zhou, so he quickly changed the subject and took out the photo ball.
Princess Zhou only slightly used her magic power and saw the contents of the photo ball.
Clan leader Jiang and City Lord Zeng tried to destroy the evidence, Clan leader Jiang and City Lord Zeng conspired with Prefect Gong, Prefect Gong contacted all the previous City Lords of Qingcheng to establish connections and get in touch with the Third Prince, and so on.
Patriarch Jiang and others thought they were doing it secretly enough, but they didn't know that while they were taking action, there was a pair of cold eyes watching them, and recording everything faithfully with a photo ball.
"Huh..." Princess Zhou let out a long breath, "Thank you for your trouble, Brother Jiang. With these things, we can catch all these people in one fell swoop. The factions in Qingcheng are intertwined and complicated. It's my fault for not paying enough attention to the people I employ."
"Jiang Yixing lied that I asked him to practice magic, and people believed it. They even made up their own stories that I never went home to pretend to be good, that I was actually practicing magic in secret, that the Human Emperor was the biggest leader of the magic world, that the power of faith was extremely important to me, etc. But no one thought that Jiang Yixing was lying, and no one thought that I really never went home."
Jiang Li sighed: "We have been working hard to make the world peaceful and beautiful, but there are always people who think that the world is dark. However, I also have a responsibility in this matter. As a powerful person, I only focus on my own cultivation, but ignore the possibility that someone may be using my name to bully others, even if this person is a relative you haven't met for five hundred years."
Emperor Zhou Jizhi also sighed: "Yes, the fate of the Great Zhou is closely related to the justice of the law, but there are always people who think that as long as they have good connections, they can bend the law for personal gain and escape legal sanctions. Some people even dare not punish people from other dynasties, thinking that this is a matter of diplomatic politics and not within the jurisdiction of the law. They also feel complacent that they are considerate of the emperor's will and care about the country. As an emperor, I am also very tired."
Jiang Li and Zhou Huangjizhi looked at each other and sighed in unison: "People turn a blind eye to what is in plain sight and always like to imagine things!"
The corner of Yuan Wuxing's eye twitched. Seeing the two big shots sighing to each other, he felt like his image had collapsed.
Although he is also part of the "wild imagination".
"But this is understandable. As the Emperor of Man, how many people dare to question you? Yuan Wuxing, right? It is a blessing for our Great Zhou to have a cultivator like you who upholds justice!" Princess Zhou patted Yuan Wuxing's shoulder vigorously to show encouragement.
Yuan Wuxing quickly stood up straight and shouted "Yes".
…
On the outskirts of Qingcheng, near the space node, there was a crowd of people. People from near Qingcheng all came over to see what it was like to trace back time. This was a spell involving the way of time and was extremely rare.
The reason why Chief Jiang and others did not react to the fact that Jiang Li would apply to trace back time was largely because there were too few cases of applying to trace back time, and you might not encounter one even once in ten years.

Many parents who had lost their children also rushed here from other cities to see whether their children were stolen by Jiang Yixing.
The third prince and the fourth prince stood side by side in the air, their eyes slightly closed, their hands behind their backs and their chests puffed out, in yellow robes.
Patriarch Jiang and City Lord Zeng stood together, without any sense of tension, and even felt like laughing.
The two princes reached an agreement and worked together to cover up the truth. They didn't believe that Jiang Li and Yuan Wuxing could turn the tables? Unless Emperor Zhou came in person or Emperor Ren questioned the result, there was no possibility of a turnaround. Even if the heads of other dynasties and major sects came, it would be useless! But Emperor Zhou and Emperor Ren would come here?
Are you kidding? How is that possible?
They looked towards Jiang Li and found that there was a man in a black robe and a hood standing next to Jiang Li and Yuan Wuxing. He was a sneaky guy and it was obvious that he was not a good person.
"The time has come. Prepare to go back in time." The third and fourth princes opened their eyes and looked around.
Countless people looked up, their eyes focused on the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince.
The two princes' hand prints changed very quickly, even leaving layers of afterimages, which was amazing.
As the two of them silently chanted the formula, the sound was as soft as the buzz of a mosquito, and everyone felt as if they were in another world, and felt that the distance between them and the two princes was getting farther and farther. This sense of distance was not reflected in space, but in time. The figures of the two princes gradually faded, and finally disappeared completely, leaving the secondary space-time.
There was a cultivator who wanted to take the opportunity to comprehend the way of time, but accidentally fell into the time demon. If his companions had not discovered the problem in time and woke him up, he would have woken up more than a hundred years later. But for that cultivator, it was just a matter of a thought.
The royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty practiced the way of time, which required someone to protect them.
"You two nephews are very skilled, and your seal-forming speed is quite good considering your current level of cultivation." Jiang Li commented on the two princes.
"Hmph, Brother Jiang, you don't have to save face for me. These two guys are clearly showing off their skills. If they still needed so many procedures in the battle, they would have been beaten to death long ago." Zhou Huangjizhi snorted coldly, dissatisfied with the two sons, "After this is over, I will make sure they prepare for the actual battle."
Yuan Wuxing stood next to the two big guys, trembling and not daring to interrupt.
