Zhao Min's words were so sincere that even Zhang Wuji was moved.
Zhang Wuji believed every word Zhao Min said just now. Not only Zhang Wuji believed it, but even Zhou Zhiruo and Yu Fei believed it without a doubt.
But there is no way, there can only be one emperor in the world.
Even if there are two now, sooner or later they will beat the remaining one.
Zhao Min was still kneeling in front of the golden statue of Genghis Khan and praying: "Ancestors, Min'er is about to ascend the throne and become emperor, but there is one thing that gives Min'er a headache, that is, Min'er is going to be out of money."
"Min'er now has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command. The daily food expenses for these hundreds of thousands of people alone are no small amount."
"The richest Jiangnan is no longer under our control, and all the valuable things in the palace have been sold almost by Min'er, so Min'er thought of Panlongyuan."
"Panlong Temple has been established for nearly a hundred years, and it has indeed embezzled a lot of incense money. In this temple, there are no less than dozens of bald monks wearing gold-thread robes, and there are also your group of ancestors with gilded bodies."
"Min'er has an idea, which is not a very good one. That is, after Min'er ascends the throne and becomes emperor, she will plunder this Panlong Courtyard. Min'er will not spend a penny of the looted gold and silver on herself. Min'er will use all the money as military pay for the soldiers."
"When the time comes, Min'er will melt all of you gilded ancestors together."
"If you, the ancestors, have any resentment in your hearts, please do not come to me. If you really have spirits in heaven, you should go find that bastard Zhang Wuji. It would be best if you can appear in Zhang Wuji's dreams every day to make that bastard unable to sleep and suffer from insomnia."
Zhang Wuji and the other three covered their mouths tightly. No one could have imagined that the Empress Dowager of the Yuan Dynasty, who would become the emperor in a few days, could actually say such words.
…
Today, Zhao Min said many words in front of these gilded portraits, including her guilt and dissatisfaction towards her ancestors.
But Zhang Wuji could hear the endless sadness.
The Yuan Dynasty's empire ultimately fell on the shoulders of a woman.
…
It was a long time after Zhao Min left that Zhang Wuji and the other two dared to walk out from behind the gilded statue.
Yu Fei said to Zhang Wuji, "Master, it was very dangerous just now. How are we going to get out now?"
Before Zhang Wuji could reply, Zhou Zhiruo said, "It's all because of you, little girl. You insisted on coming to Panlong Courtyard and almost got caught by Zhao Min. God knows how many guards she left outside. If we had been discovered just now, none of us three would have been able to escape."
Yu Fei laughed: "Sister Zhou, isn't this exciting? It was so fun just now. I'm afraid no one in the world would have thought that Zhao Min would have such a side. But, I think she is quite pitiful."
When Yu Fei said that Zhao Min was pitiful, Zhou Zhiruo thought of how she almost died at Zhao Min's hands.
Zhou Zhiruo's mind was full of bad memories. She recalled the scene not long ago when Zhao Min put the sword of the Heavenly Sword on her neck.
That day, Zhao Min spared Zhou Zhiruo's life, but also said many extremely humiliating words to her.
Even when Zhou Zhiruo recalls those words now, she wishes she could find a hole to crawl into. It was so humiliating.
…
After a while, Zhang Wuji and the other two quietly walked out of the temple.
Zhao Min had already left, and Panlongyuan fell into a moment of peace.
Zhang Wuji knew that it was no longer suitable to stay here for long.
But just when the three of them were about to leave Panlongyuan, a good-looking monk stopped them.
The monk was wearing a golden robe, which was embellished with many gems, making it extremely luxurious.
Zhang Wuji exchanged glances with the monk, then said in a cold tone, "Get out of the way."
The monk smiled and said, "Don't misunderstand, benefactor. My name is Yang Lianzhen, and I am the ninth abbot of Panlong Temple."
Zhang Wuji said: "I don't know why, but the first time I saw you, I felt that you were not a good person, so, before I lose my temper, you'd better get out of the way quickly."
Yang Lianzhen smiled at Zhang Wuji and said, "Sir, if you want to leave, it's not impossible, but..."
Yu Fei on the side said: "But my sister and I want to stay, right?"
As he spoke, Yu Fei also took Zhou Zhiruo's arm.
Zhou Zhiruo's appearance is extremely beautiful, and coupled with her extraordinary temperament and fairy-like aura, Yang Lianzhen's mouth corner unconsciously raised a smile.
Speaking of Yu Fei's appearance, in fact, Yu Fei's appearance is not worse than Zhou Zhiruo, he just lacks the fairy air of her.
But Yu Fei's outfit today is almost 80% similar to Zhao Min who just left.
Except for the color of his clothes, everything else was almost the same. When Yang Lianzhen saw Yu Fei for the first time, he thought he was dazzled.
Two beauties like these are worth the risk for a playboy monk like him.
Behind Yang Lianzhen, many monks holding swords have appeared one after another. These monks seem to have revealed their true faces.
Those ugly faces were totally inconsistent with the robes they wore.
Zhang Wuji shook his head helplessly and said to Yang Lianzhen: "It seems that you really want to die today, but there is one thing I don't understand. This is Yuan Dadu, the capital of the Emperor."
"You bunch of bald donkeys, it's not enough that you just collect some incense money, but you even do things like raping women so blatantly. Who gave you the courage?"
