Chapter 1672 Meeting the Imperial Master

"Excuse me, Senior Demon Saint."

Shi Xuanji stood up and returned the greeting to Lu Xianweng.

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "Lu Xianweng, tell Miss Xuanji why you came today."

"Yes, my lord."

Lu Xianweng looked at Shi Xuanji again, "My lord, I came here today to express my support for you on behalf of Lord Mingzun."

"Lord Mingzun said that he doesn't like any of the people in the Holy Tree Royal Family, but if you take charge of the Holy Tree, he would be happy to help you."

"Of course, the North Territory is far away from the East Territory, and Lord Mingzun can't always stay in the Holy Tree Fairyland."

"So whether you can take charge of the Holy Tree in the end depends on your own means. Lord Mingzun may only come down to help you at the critical moment."

"Did Lord Mingzun really say that?" Shi Xuanji was full of joy.

Although Mingzun of the North Territory rarely cares about the affairs of the Holy Tree Fairyland, his status in the Holy Tree Fairyland is truly unparalleled.

Throughout the entire Holy Tree Immortal Kingdom, whether it is powerful officials or ordinary people, there are people who directly curse the current emperor, but has anyone ever seen anyone dare to directly curse the Northern Territory Mingzun?

No!

Not even one!

And such a powerful existence now expresses its attitude to support her?

Shi Xuanji feels that the day when she will take charge of the power of the Holy Tree Immortal Kingdom is not far away.

Of course, everything has to be done step by step.

Shi Xuanji is not stupid enough to think that with the support of the Northern Territory Mingzun, she can directly take charge of the power.

Everything in the world has a lip service?

No matter how powerful the background is, she will still be the one who controls the power and handles specific domestic affairs.

She doesn't want to issue an order herself.

So Shi Xuanji will not rely entirely on the Northern Territory Mingzun.

She will only use the power of the Northern Territory Mingzun to gradually gather forces from all sides and finally achieve the goal of truly controlling the Holy Tree Immortal Kingdom.

"Oh, by the way, before coming here, Lord Mingzun asked me to give this to the queen."

Lu Xianweng suddenly remembered something and quickly spread out his right hand, and saw a small tree as big as a fist appear in his palm.

Shi Xuanji's eyes widened in shock: "This... is this the Holy Tree of Heaven?"

"Yes."

Lu Xianweng smiled slightly: "After Lord Mingzun received the message from the master, he reshaped the Holy Tree of Heaven with the origin of the Holy Tree. This time he sent me to the East Region and asked me to bring it with him."

Shi Xuanji couldn't help but look at Zhao Mu, full of amazement.

The whole Holy Tree Immortal Kingdom was almost worried to death, but this person actually did it in a blink of an eye, which was simply unacceptable.

She took a deep breath and said to Lu Xianweng again: "Senior Demon Saint, please keep the Heavenly Dao Holy Tree for the time being. In addition, I will go to see the National Master later. Please follow me."

"But when you meet the National Master, don't show up directly. Follow him in stealth mode. When I need you, I will ask you to show up again."

"That's easy."

Lu Xianweng didn't waste any words. After putting away the Heavenly Dao Holy Tree, he suddenly faded and disappeared.

But Shi Xuanji knew that Lu Xianweng was still standing there.

She looked at Zhao Mu again: "Master, you will..."

Zhao Mu smiled and stood up: "I will naturally be Si Shanggong in the future. Queen, you have never seen me."

After that, he changed into Si Shanggong again.

"Okay, Si Shanggong, then follow me to the National Master's Mansion."

After Shi Xuanji finished speaking, the whole person went directly into the ground and escaped to the outside of the palace.

Zhao Mu smiled slightly: "I obey you!"

The next moment, his figure suddenly disappeared, and only Shengshu Longchang, who was lying on the bed and knew nothing, was left in the bedroom.

National Master's Mansion, Alchemy Room.

The alchemy furnace was burning with hot flames, and a wisp of burning smell kept coming out of it, but the national master ignored it and just sat on the futon with a gloomy face, thinking about something?

Suddenly, a woman's voice sounded in the alchemy room: "Master National Master, what makes you so worried that you don't even care about the burnt pills?"

"Who is so bold that he dared to sneak into the mansion of this national master?"

The national master waved his hand to extinguish the flame of the alchemy furnace and looked around the alchemy room coldly.

At the door of the alchemy room, two women appeared silently. They were the current queen and the female official Si Shanggong who held the seal.

A sharp light flashed in the eyes of the Imperial Master, and he was extremely alert: "It turns out that this Imperial Master really made a mistake."

"No, it's not just this Imperial Master who made a mistake, it should be said that all the officials in the entire court made a mistake."

"Situ Wenzhong, Qin Mu, and Shengshu Longyu all said that the current queen is a woman who is manipulated by others."

"But this woman was able to sneak into the Imperial Master's mansion quietly today and did not alarm anyone."

"Empress, you really surprised me today."

"Really? I have something more surprising to you. Do you want to know?"

Shi Xuanji said calmly, walked over and sat on the futon opposite the Imperial Master.

"Oh?"

The Imperial Master narrowed his eyes slightly: "Your Majesty, please tell me. This Imperial Master really wants to see what else you can do to surprise me more?"

Shi Xuanji's slender fingers gently smoothed the hem of her skirt and said calmly: "My Lord Imperial Master, how confident are you in handling the matter of reshaping the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao this time?"

"100%!"

The Imperial Master said calmly: "To put it bluntly, the solution to this matter is to 'delay'. This Imperial Master will agree to reshape the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao when he goes to court tomorrow."

"After the court is dismissed, the national teacher will organize people to be sent to the Northern Territory."

"But this round trip will take at least hundreds of years. During this period, I will still be the national teacher and the regent. Who can say anything?"

"Hehe..."

Shi Xuanji covered her mouth and chuckled: "Master National Teacher, why deceive yourself? If things are really so simple, would you worry so much that you don't even care if the elixir is burnt?"

"In fact, you know very well that although the word "drag" is useful, it also requires others not to pursue you relentlessly and let you use it honestly."

"But there are too many people in the court who want you to die. They have many ways to make you unable to drag it down, right?"

The national teacher's face darkened and asked coldly: "What does the queen want to say?"

"It's very simple."

Shi Xuanji said calmly: "This palace can help you solve this problem, and even use this problem to help you improve your prestige in the court, provided that you submit to me."

Submission?

This woman actually dared to let me submit to her?

The state teacher's face condensed, but he did not get angry. Instead, he asked in a deep voice: "I am very curious, where does the queen get the confidence to say such a thing."

Shi Xuanji smiled: "My confidence naturally comes from the Northern Territory Mingzun."

"What do you mean?" The state teacher frowned slightly.

"Why, don't you understand?"

Shi Xuanji smiled leisurely: "I mean, I have received the support of the Northern Territory Mingzun."

"Mingzun promised to support me to become the real person in power in the Holy Tree Immortal Kingdom."

"As for the regent minister, anyone who dares to oppose will be killed!"
