Chapter 764: The universe is ancient and ever-changing

The things that dispel evil and eliminate evil spirits have no effect on 99% of the people in the world. People only know that one day there were natural disasters everywhere, tsunamis and earthquakes came from everywhere, it was simply the end of the world, and the world suffered greatly.

After that, the imperial court and the various sects of the righteous, as well as the Six Dao Alliance led by the Xingyue sect, set off a worldwide reconstruction and development. Under the initiative of the emperor and the assistant regent Xue Mu, the imperial court encouraged the study of literature, mathematics, and technology, encouraged the forging of weapons, and encouraged commerce and transportation. Under the initiative of the imperial court, it was finally no longer the case that everyone sharpened their heads to learn martial arts, and it was no longer the case that “if you don’t learn martial arts, you’re a waste.”

In fact, the so-called advocacy is nothing more than taking advantage of the situation. There have been countless people who are tired of bloody battles, especially in Yizhou, which has finally recovered and developed after a period of chaos.

People want stability, and that is the foundation of everything.

In just two or three years, the whole world has changed.

If you look down from the sky, you can see that the fields are full of golden rice, that buildings with carved beams and painted rafters are everywhere, and that the spider web-like railway lines crisscross the land like veins of blood.

The population has multiplied, cattle and horses roam the mountains and plains, and mountains of money and grain are piled up.

The imperial court had official historians who were responsible for recording the changes from ancient times to the present day, as well as the splendor of the present day.

“… The reign of the Empress Dowager has been unprecedented since ancient times.”

“The only thing that is one of a kind is the great female emperor who built the foundation of the dynasty, who conquered the four directions, who promoted culture and virtue, and who was the most outstanding. The regent Xue Mu, who followed the way of the people and helped the world and the people, was not inferior to the ancient sages. The couple was harmonious, the military and the civilian were complementary, the world was clear, and there was the glory of a prosperous era…”

In fact, Xue Mu was not as good as they boasted.

He was also quite corrupt. The main manifestation of this was that he finally started building a palace around the pond, which became the pond in the back garden.

With the likes of Xia Hou Di, Mo Xue Xin, Mu Jian Li, and other girls who are not of the same caliber as the Xingyue Sect, it is not appropriate for him to live in the Xingyue Sect’s gate every day, so he built another palace here.

Except for Xia Hou Di, who still has to go to the palace every day, Mu Jianli, Mo Xuexin, Zhu Chenyao, Qin Wuye, Ye Yingkong, and others all live in the Weiyang Palace. Even the girls in the Xingyue Sect don’t live in the mountain gate anymore, they all live in the palace. They only occasionally go back to the sect every few days to ask about the situation. Everyone is almost semi-retired.

The current situation really doesn’t require much effort from everyone.

From the eunuchs to the gatekeepers in the Weiyang Palace, without exception, they are all sisters of the Xingyue and Hehuan sects. Within ten miles, males are almost impossible to connect to, and even a fly is estimated to be female.

The only male present is Xue Mu.

Because in the inner palace, everyone is often wearing light gauze, half-covered and half-hidden, walking around in a flurry of spring light. At first, it was only Qin Muyue and the girls from the Hehuan sect who deliberately did not act reserved and flirtatiously, so that Xue Mu could do whatever he wanted whenever he felt like it… Then the girls from the Xingyue sect all studied with dissatisfaction, and in the end, even Mu Jianli and Mo Xuexin were affected by this atmosphere. Everyone was like that, but it was weird that they were all tightly wrapped up…

Xue Mu was in pain and happiness inside, feeling that the nutritional fast line could not keep up.

In the past year, in an environment where the world is advocating the construction of a golden age, he has appeared in front of the world very rarely. He has almost always hidden in the Weiyang Palace, claiming that he is letting everyone reach enlightenment through dual cultivation, but in reality, he is corrupt to an unimaginable degree.

Xiahou Di dismissed the court and traveled lightly to this palace of debauchery.

Upon entering the inner palace, Xue Mu’s personal guards greeted him with a smile: “Your Majesty.”

Xiahou Di asked with a sneer, “What are you up to today?”

The bodyguard said with a smile, “Today, the young master went to the capital. Didn’t you meet His Majesty?”

Xia Hou Di was stunned: “He’s been at home for a long time. Why did he suddenly want to go out today? And you’re not going with him…”

“We don’t need to accompany him. A group of people who have reached enlightenment are by his side. We are not very perceptive. We have been practicing together for two years, but we still haven’t reached enlightenment. Oh…” The younger sister was very sad.

Xia Hou Di was speechless: “Then what is he going out for?”

“The head of the family is pregnant, and they said they wanted to go for a walk, which is good for the fetus.”

Xia Hou Di straightened her eyes and suddenly turned around and chased after them without saying a word.

I’m not pregnant yet, you stinky Xue Mu! I’m going to squeeze you to death tonight!

Today, Xue Mu is on a family outing with a dozen women around him, not even wearing a veil. The beauty of the flowers is so dazzling that the streets of the capital are congested, and it’s just a matter of time before someone falls over.

Next to Xue Mu was Xue Qingqiu, whose belly was already slightly swollen. She had a sweet and gentle expression on her face, and her radiance was so dazzling that it was hard to look at her.

A little girl was eating a sugar-coated fruit on a stick, holding onto her mother’s skirt and mumbling, “I want a baby too, even at night…”

Xue Qingqiu rolled her eyes. You’re always running around like a child, and you’re not even embarrassed to want a baby… It’s strange. You used to want to grow up every day, but now that you’ve really grown up, you’re always running around like a child. Is it fun?

The most speechless thing is that after being infected by this funny person, there is another Meng Zhen, who is also very familiar with the power of the night, and has also begun to turn into a child at any time, pulling the other side of Xue Mu’s clothes in a stuttering manner: “Xue Mu, I want a baby too…”

Xue Mu sat with the two cuties on his shoulders, one on each side, and laughed all the way, “Okay, let’s go home and have a baby.”

Can you let them grow bigger first before saying that? Xue Qingqiu was furious.

Yue Xiaochan laughed beside her: “I knew it years ago. He likes the small ones.”

This statement is quite regrettable. This year, Yue Xiaochan is 19 years old, a real tall and graceful young lady. The part that was originally used as a flatbed is no longer flat, and her body is flawless, making her curves enviable to everyone who judges them. But in Yue Xiaochan’s heart, it seems that the original appearance is still better…

Suddenly, there was a commotion from the side of the road, and a group of onlookers applauded.

When everyone turned around, they saw a stage.

But it was no longer a stage for duels… A stage play was being performed on this stage, and the content of the performance was very interesting: Lin Wuyi’s death and slaying of the demon.

All kinds of singing and dancing performances have long since become popular, and Xue Mu’s several masterpieces have been reinterpreted over and over again. They are treasures that will never be exhausted. In addition, the stories of these heroes have also been passed down and adapted by people, becoming exciting performances on stage.

Mu Jianli stopped and looked, looking at the scene of the white-clad swordsman on the stage, and there was a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.

Xue Mu and Yue Xiaochan also exchanged glances. They both remembered the first time they entered the capital, when they saw a street fight on the street.

Compared to today’s scene, it really seems like a dream.

Yue Xiaochan couldn’t help but ask, “Is that song really your last work?”

Xue Mu smiled and said, “It’s true. I don’t want to write anymore. You know why I wrote it before, but now it’s no longer necessary. It’s just that nowadays there are stories and legends about heroes everywhere. What is it like to see yourself become a character in a play?”

Yue Xiaochan said, “Every time I think, the ones who play us aren’t pretty enough…”

Xue Mu said, “I feel the same way. I also think that the ones who play me are all ugly… That’s fine, but every time they make me fight bloody battles, what the hell? I’m not like that…”

Everyone laughed. Mu Jianli, who had been feeling a little down, couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this.

Xiao Qingwu, who had always wanted to persuade his master to write a new work, finally found an opportunity: “Then why doesn’t the master write these stories himself, restore them in their original form, and get to the bottom of things?”

Mu Jianli nodded and said, “Now that the imperial court is writing history, there are actually many misunderstandings about your ideas. Why don’t you consider writing your own autobiography?”

Mu Jianli said, “Yes, and there are even some unofficial histories that describe my father as a sex maniac… although that’s not far off.”

The sisters burst out laughing.

Mo Xuexin suddenly said, “There are still people criticizing you, leading the world astray with your vanity. It’s similar to what Shi Lei thought at the beginning. It would be better if you defend yourself a little…”

When he said this, everyone became serious and turned to look at Xue Mu’s expression.

Xue Mu thought for a while in a daze, shook his head, and said, “My life… is hard to judge. There is no need to spend too much time on it. Let time be the judge.”

Meng Zhen said with a pout, “Xue Mu, I haven’t seen you write anything.”

Xue Mu patted her head affectionately: “If I must, I’ll leave a poem.”

As they spoke, they happened to arrive at the Treasure Pavilion.

Lin Dongsheng, like a rat seeing rice, darted out with a slurp: “The leader wants to write a poem? I have the best four treasures in my Treasure Pavilion… just leave it with me for three days…”

“You’re a greedy merchant,” Xue Mu scolded, but he didn’t refuse.

He took the brush that Lin Dongsheng handed him and looked at the unrolled scroll, thinking for a long time.

What have I done in this life?

He suddenly laughed, and finally wrote down four lines: “The prosperity of the poor is a thousand miles away, and writing a book is a way to express my heart for a hundred years. Who can ask about the ups and downs of life? The universe is ancient and modern.”
