Chapter 975 Transformation
Wei Changtian arrived in Fengyuan on the first day of August.
Naturally, he was warmly welcomed by the people of Fengyuan.
After all, Dahui and Daqian were enemies of the Xinfeng people, and Wei Changtian's annihilation of the two countries was undoubtedly revenge for them.
Therefore, the welcoming scene can be described as red flags waving and huge crowds of people. From the city gate to the imperial palace, the streets and alleys were all crowded with people, and shouts of "Prince Wei is mighty" and so on were heard everywhere.
This scene even made Xu Suisui, who was riding in the same car with Wei Changtian, a little jealous.
"Huh! I thought they were all coming for me."
Xu Suisui angrily lowered the curtain and muttered in dissatisfaction: "Obviously, I am the emperor."
“That’s what people want.”
Wei Changtian crossed his legs and teased with a smile: "Or maybe you are just an average emperor."
“What’s so ordinary about it?”
Xu Suisui argued quietly: "The new land tax is only 50% of the tax rate. Except for Dashu, there is no other place in the world that has such a low tax rate."
"I also exempted them from various taxes and levies."
"Compared to Li Qi, I am much better"
"Governing a country is not just about adjusting taxes."
Wei Changtian shook his head and interrupted: "You think it's too simple."
"Hmm? What else?"
Xu Suisui looked over and said, "What are you talking about?"
"How would I know? I've never been an emperor."
"Then what did you say!"
"I just want to advise you to be a little more self-aware."
Wei Changtian curled his lips, but his eyes became more serious: "Really, I'm not kidding you."
"Before anything goes wrong in Xinfeng, quickly find someone to give up your position."
"Isn't it good to live a peaceful life?"
"I want to, too!"
Xu Suisui widened his eyes and shouted, "But I still have to go back!"
"Whether you go back or not has nothing to do with your being the emperor."
Wei Changtian muttered something casually, then suddenly froze, his eyes becoming deep.
He looked at Xu Suisui deeply and said nothing.
The latter now realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and could not help but lower his head.
The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became weird, as if it was out of tune with the bustle outside the car.
Until Wei Changtian asked calmly:
"Or is it for the Qi Gathering Formation?"
"Um"
"So after I break through to the True Immortal, I can take you back?"
“.”
His eyes suddenly widened, and Xu Suisui raised his head, looking at Wei Changtian in disbelief, his expression a little flustered.
It was not difficult to tell from her expression that Wei Changtian guessed right.
Xu Suisui had said before that she became emperor in order to reach a deal with Buddhism, and then build the largest Qi gathering formation in history in Fengyuan, and then help Wei Changtian break through to the first level.
Xu Suisui even said that she would find a way to collect 5,000 system points to help Wei Changtian exchange for a real dragon forehead scale, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of "ascending to immortality".
Although Xu Suisui was extremely sincere when he said those words, Wei Changtian did not doubt their authenticity.
But Wei Changtian would not be so stupid as to believe that Xu Suisui would be so "unreservedly" kind to him.
Even if she is not harming herself, she must have her own purpose.
Now that I think about it, the only purpose is to "go home".
"Okay, don't be so surprised."
Wei Changtian leaned back, put his hands behind his head, and said indifferently: "If that day really comes, I will take you back."
".Really?"
Xu Suisui bit her lip and said, "Don't you blame me for not telling you the truth before?"
"It's okay. After all, strictly speaking, you didn't lie to me this time. You just didn't finish your words."
Contrary to his usual behavior, Wei Changtian did not lose his temper again, and even comforted Xu Suisui: "Besides, you did help me, so it is only right for me to take you back."
“.”
"Thanks."
Looking at Wei Changtian, Xu Suisui said thank you softly after a while.
Then after a while, she suddenly asked a somewhat puzzling question amid the noise outside the car.
"Wei Changtian, if we really go back, do you think we will be in the same world?"
".How would I know that?"
Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Why? Do you really want to marry me after you get back?"
"Pooh!"
Xu Suisui blushed, angrily hit Wei Changtian, and shouted: "You wish!"
"Huh? That's not what you said before!"
Wei Changtian pretended to be surprised and shouted: "I remember it clearly. Last time you said that if I couldn't find a wife after I returned, you would definitely marry me!"
"I, I was talking nonsense because I was not in my right mind!"
Xu Suisui's face turned even redder: "It doesn't count!"
"Oh, all right."
"Don't you ever mention this again!"
"Haha, please understand the situation. You don't want to marry me even if you want to."
"Wei Changtian, please explain clearly! How am I not worthy of you?!"
"At least the brain is not worthy of it."
"you!"
“.”
The sounds of bickering echoed in the carriage. If the walls of the carriage had not been made of special sound-proofing material, the image of the dignified Xinfeng Empress and the "living devil" of the Wei family might have been ruined.
The golden imperial chariot drove through the long street, guarded on all sides by the majestic imperial guards, and on the roadside stood countless excited common people.
If the person in the carriage at this moment was not Xu Suisui, but a smart person like Li Zimu or Yang Liushi, they would all be able to see that Wei Changtian seemed to have become different from before.
At a time when the "external environment" became increasingly unpredictable and full of crises, he became relaxed and calm instead.
It even seemed as if he had turned back into the person he was when he traveled through time.
This change is complex and difficult to explain clearly.
But it does exist, as if after experiencing so many things, Wei Changtian's mentality has returned to the original starting point.
Of course, this is definitely not the real "origin".
Perhaps, this is what Pu Xuan means by “letting go”.
What you let go of can be obsession, concern, suspicion, hatred, or regret.
And after letting go of these constraints, some things become simpler.
That evening, Xu Suisui held a banquet in the imperial palace. Wei Changtian, Yang Liushi, Xu Quan and others all attended and drank from sunset until late at night.
This time, everyone has an important "mission" in Fengyuan, or it should be said that Xu Quan and Zhili have an important mission.
marry.
Although there would undoubtedly be more time to prepare for this matter after returning to Shuzhou, because Xu Quan hoped that Xu Suisui could participate, he decided to get things done in Fengyuan.
Wei Changtian planned to stay in Fengyuan for three days. Normally speaking, it would be difficult to hold a grand wedding for the "king's uncle" in such a short time.
Fortunately, due to Zhili's status, this matter was not suitable for a grand celebration, so it was not a big problem.
In this way, everyone discussed the wedding matters at the table, and then went back to rest.
After traveling for nearly a month, they were finally able to get a good night's sleep. Xu Suisui and the others soon fell into a drunken sleep.
However, for Wei Changtian, he still has a very important thing to do tonight.
The night is dark and the moon hangs over the palace.
Outside a side hall, Li Zimu stood alone at the entrance of the hall, staring motionlessly at the white stone road in the distance.
At this moment, in the hall behind her, dozens of people were also waiting silently.
Each of them represents a large force that believes it has the ability to take a piece of the pie from this great chaos.
So, they were waiting for Wei Changtian.
Wait for the latter to push this surging wave to its highest point.
