Eunuch Hai did not continue to plead. Based on his understanding of the governor, if he really promised to spare all his relatives, it must be a lie.

Instead, he promised to spare only one of his children and grandchildren, so there was about a 20 to 30 percent chance of survival.

"Thank you, Lord Governor, for sparing your life. Ye City's Yu'er is smart, loves reading, and doesn't like swords and guns. He may be able to pass down poems and books in the future, so he can pass on the bloodline to me."

Eunuch Hai While speaking, he took out the book from his arms. There was no text on the cover.

"Our family agreed."

Zhou Yi waved his hand and took a picture of the book. When he opened it, it turned out to be a secret method of generating yang from extreme yin. He said with a joyful face, "Dear Martial Grandmaster, but he left behind a seed for reading. Will my father-in-law have no successor because of his unique skills?"

Eunuch Hai shook his head and said, "What I have learned is all from the Scripture Pavilion. It cannot be said to be discontinued."

This is naturally an excuse. If he leaves any children who are good at martial arts, he may be afraid of them and kill them casually.

"... the cold pole contains warmth, which can produce hair at the right time... the yin pole must be yang, and yin and yang are mutually rooted. This is the way of heaven and earth... many creates emptiness, and emptiness creates many..."

"The yin of the five internal organs clears the emptiness and rises upwards. The seven orifices suddenly open, and the spirit comes out..."

Zhou Yi murmurs and chants, and the true energy circulates naturally, starting from the five internal organs, passing through the seven orifices and passing through the Tianmen. I feel the clear yang in the body rises and the turbid yin dissipates, and I feel the itching sensation of new flesh growing in the lower body.

Eunuch Hai Sensing the change in the Governor's aura, he couldn't help but feel horrified.

"After cultivating one thought, is there such a talent for martial arts in the world?"

Although the secret method of extremely yin generating yang is not a martial arts method, it is more mysterious and obscure, but it is a secret method derived from flesh and blood that Eunuch Hai understood after reading Buddhist and Daoist classics.

Eunuch Hai, as the founder, practiced for more than ten years before he regained his male body.

A moment passes.

A long roar resounded through the long street, and Zhou Yi laughed loudly, with a strong and rough voice.

This time it is different from the previous practice of simulating a voice with true energy. Instead, the real physical body is in harmony, the essence is perfect, and the voice is no different from that of a normal adult man.

Zhou Yi doesn't care about a man's body. What he is really happy about is making a breakthrough in martial arts.

The yin and yang are harmonious, and the energy of heaven and earth is right in front of you. There is no longer any sense of hazy alienation, and it can be easily refined into true energy.

Eunuch Hai bowed and said, "Congratulations to the Governor."

"Rejoice together and rejoice together."

Zhou Yi flicked his finger, and Sword Qi penetrated Eunuch Hai's chest.

"Our family has changed its mind. We will really spare Eunuch Hai's grandson. If he succeeds in the election in the future, he will be promoted one or two."

The eleventh year of Pingkang.

winter.

Capital Garrison Zuo General Lu Cang and Imperial Guards Commander Wei Xian colluded with Directorate of Imperial Horses Eunuch Cao to lead troops into the palace under the pretext of detaining Lord Qing.

Grand Tutor Zhou led the army to quell the rebellion and killed Lu and Wei for their rebellion.

Emperor Pingkang was lost and died.

The eldest prince ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, establishing Long'an.

The following year.

Zhou Ping'an sealed Prince Chu, added Jiuxi, and took over the government as regent.

Longan for six years.

Longevity Mountain.

The eastern half is lush with trees, and the mountain paths wind up to the simple stone house on the top of the mountain. The western half of the cliff is steep, from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley, straight up and down like a knife and an axe.

It is rumored that there was a rebellion in Kyoto six years ago. Five thousand Capital Garrison elites surrounded Longevity Mountain with the intention of besieging the world's number one Martial Grandmaster.

As a result, before anyone could see anyone, a bright sword light fell from the sky.

Like a waterfall or a curtain, it looks like a river flowing through the sky, directly splitting Longevity Mountain into two pieces.

The rebel leader was frightened to death on the spot, and the rest either fled in all directions or knelt down to beg for mercy. Since then, the east side of Longevity Mountain has become a forbidden area, and the broken half of the west side has been filled with martial arts masters from time to time.

The power of the Zhou family grew day by day, and they were even granted the title of king by civil servants, and no one in the court dared to hinder them.

This day.

A line of honor guards came under the Longevity Mountain, and the powerful Prince Chu came down from the foot of the mountain.

When he reached the mountainside, Zhou Ping'an turned aside his attendants and walked up the mountain alone.

"The child pays homage to his father."

Zhou Ping'an was waiting for a moment outside the stone house when an indifferent voice came to his ears. He bowed to the back of the house and saw his still youthful father sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff fishing.

Zhou Yi holds a piece of green bamboo that he picked up at random, and his true energy stretches into a line, hanging down from the top of the mountain to the river at the bottom of the stream.

"Why are you here looking for our family?"

"Father, it will be your birthday in a few days."

Zhou Ping'an said, "The child has been prepared for a long time. He has collected many martial arts classics, invited martial arts masters to perform martial arts at banquets, and decided to hold a birthday banquet for his father that is unique in the world."

"Is it a good year..."

Zhou Yi shook his head slightly, still looking at the fishing rod. "Just bring the classics. Our family is not interested in the birthday banquet. As for martial arts... Are there any martial arts geniuses who have appeared in the world recently?"

In the early years, I was keen on banquets to enjoy the popularity at banquets and to satisfy the sense of gain after climbing up.

Now that the world is invincible and he knows how to control the imperial power, it is difficult for Zhou Yi to be moved by any flattery, and the banquet will naturally be boring.

Zhou Ping'an hui reported, "Eastern Depot's secret agent reported that a little Sword God was born in Jiangnan. He reached his peak at the age of two decades and is rumored to be the second best in the world."

After the Du Gong broke the mountain with one sword, all the warriors were proud to be ranked second in the world.

Zhou Yi ordered, "Watch carefully."

"Eastern Depot is keeping an eye on all nine clans in his family. If there is any change, he will not be able to hide it from his father."

Zhou Ping'an I don't understand why my father cares about the younger generations of the Jianghu family, but the rise and fall of the Zhou family is closely linked to each other, so I can just do whatever I'm told. After pondering for a moment, he continued.

"Father, I have one more thing to report to you."

Zhou Yi glanced at it, and there seemed to be a bit of ridicule in his voice. "The honor guard, the nine carriages, the golden chariot, your brat's pomp is even worse than that of the late emperor. Could it be that Emperor Long'an is planning to abdicate?"

The late emperor was referring to Emperor Zhengtong, and for the subsequent emperors, the Governor never took him seriously.

Emperor Long'an is just seven years old, and is timid and weak by nature. Ever since he became sensible, he has known that his father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and great-grandfather all died unexpectedly, and he often hides in the harem and dare not go to court.

There have long been rumors among the people that before Emperor Long'an goes to court, he will seek out sorcerers to predict bad luck.

He is as timid as a mouse and not like a human king.

Zhou Ping'an bowed and said, "Your Majesty said that he was too young and ignorant to govern the world, and it was difficult to govern the world. He also said that the world is sovereign and should comply with the people's will. Zen is located in Zhou!"

"People's hearts..."

Zhou Yi snorted coldly, "Which people's support?"

Zhou Ping'an replied, "The three divisions and six departments in the central court, the Aristocratic Clan sect inside, and the border army generals outside all think that your majesty is right!"

"Jie Jie Jie!"

Zhou Yi laughed strangely and said, "In the eyes of our family, worldly imperial power is nothing but child's play. You can be the emperor if you want, but there is one thing you must always remember."

Zhou Ping'an suppressed the surprise in his heart, as long as his father agreed, the other opponents were nothing more than ants, and he knelt down and said.

"Ask father to teach me."

"Our family didn't have enough to eat when we were young, so we had no choice but to sell ourselves into the palace."

Zhou Yi said quietly, "Was our family a common people at that time? Does the world have the final say now? Remember, there are still people who will come after you!"

"Kid, remember this."

Zhou Ping'an said, "After the child ascends the throne, the country will be named Zhou, and his father will be worshiped as the God of War and the Holy Ancestor. A statue will be erected and a monument will be established. The father can decide the emperor's position in future generations with one word."

"My father has a long life, Eternal youth. If the imperial court has you here to supervise me, it will be difficult for unworthy descendants to succeed to the throne. Then the Great Zhou Dynasty can be king for eternity."

Zhou Yi asked, "When did our family become interested in becoming emperor?"

Zhou Ping'an said, "The position of emperor belongs to my father."

"It's up to you. In our family's eyes, being an emperor is not as fun as fishing."

Zhou Yi felt the vibration of the fishing rod, and slowly shortened the Zhenqi fishing line. At the end, he caught a three-foot-long golden and red carp, which was very fat with its head and tail swaying.

The majestic true energy came out of the body, turned into a river ten feet long in the air, and threw the carp into the river with a swing of the stick.

The carp that had been struggling so hard suddenly felt that it could breathe easily and swim happily in the river of Qi, as if it was really living in the water.

Zhou Ping'an Seeing this wonderful scene, he became more respectful and lowered his body.

"This level of martial arts is difficult for ordinary people to fathom. It is no different from gods!"
