Fighter of the Destiny

The railing is the railing of the restaurant, the table is the wine table, and the restaurant is the most famous and expensive Chenghu Tower in Kyoto. This is of course used for eating. There are very few people who are qualified to accompany Tianhai Chengwu to eat, and Xu Shiji happens to be one of them.

As the nominal and world-known future father-in-law of Chen Changsheng, he now has very complicated feelings towards Chen Changsheng. Last year, the Dongyu Shenjiang Mansion was ridiculed by the entire continent because of the disgrace of this young Taoist priest from the countryside. However, how could he have thought in advance that Chen Changsheng would be the Pope's favored successor? How could he have known that, then The Taoist Taoist turned out to be the once extremely famous dean of Shang... Every time he thought about this engagement, he would have a lot of complaints towards his father who had returned to Xinghai a long time ago. There were obviously so many things hidden behind the engagement, why didn't you tell me clearly in advance? ?

His perceptions and thoughts were naturally complicated, and Xu Shiji's attitude toward the marriage had become a bit elusive. When he received the invitation from Tianhai Mansion yesterday, he thought that the head of the Tianhai family, who was known for his scheming, might be forcing him to He expressed his position, so after arriving at Chenghu Tower, he basically remained silent, especially when Hai Chengwu talked about Chen Changsheng that day.

Tianhai Chengwu glanced at him with a smile, as if he understood his thoughts completely, and continued calmly: "Shengxue is practicing diligently in the north, using battle to improve his mind, and has successfully broken through the realm to gather stars. He should return to Kyoto after the year. Look at the Heavenly Book Monument again."

Xu Shiji didn't know why he suddenly mentioned Tianhai Shengxue, even though Tianhai Shengxue was the most outstanding young man in the third generation of the Tianhai family and one of the juniors whom the Queen Mother admired most.

"No one can hide what Shengxue did during the imperial examination at the beginning of the year, but this kid is a smart man and he didn't want to hide it from anyone. Speaking of which, this should be regarded as a good use of Yang Mou... But for I'm still a little unhappy that he does his own thing. If a family is too big, people in it will inevitably have their own judgments and ideas. However, if the family is under pressure, those individual ideas are meaningless. We must combine all Only by gathering the strength of the whole family can we ensure that the whole family continues to walk on the right path. The so-called overturning of the nest... you can't even save the nest, and you still want to keep your own egg. Isn't it funny?"

Listening to Tianhai Chengwu's seemingly relaxed joke, Xu Shiji felt even heavier. How could he not understand the implication of this sentence? The so-called correct path is, of course, the path that the Tianhai family will take to replace the old and continue to rule the human world. The so-called dissatisfaction with Tianhai Shengxue was, of course, actually a warning to him not to have too many other thoughts.

"My aunt hasn't said anything recently, so many people in Kyoto have misunderstandings." Whether in the palace or in the court, Tianhai Chengwu always uses the honorific title when referring to the Holy Empress. Only in very private places, She called her aunt. This was not a hidden reminder, but a naked show of strength. He turned around and stared into Xu Shiji's eyes and said, "They forgot one thing. After all, my aunt's surname is Tianhai. How can she bear to look at the family?" Everyone is dead?"

Xu Shiji knew he couldn't listen anymore and said, "I don't understand why the Pope has remained silent."

Of course, this is talking about the most lively event in Kyoto recently, the battle between the National Education Academy and the other academies. Tianhai Chengwu suppressed his smile and said: "When no one understands it, there must be a deep meaning... I always feel that the Pope is using this method to help Chen Changsheng mature as quickly as possible. Sometimes I even I feel that the Pope is trying to encourage others."

Xu Shiji frowned slightly, thinking that his cheap son-in-law was known to be calm and precocious. He was already on the verge of reaching the Star Gathering Realm before he was sixteen years old. He was unprecedented. Apart from his own precious daughter, no one could match him. The Pope is actually not satisfied with this, and still wants him to mature faster?

"Except for my aunt, who can understand the Pope's thoughts?" Tianhai Chengwu turned to look at the light mist on the lake and said slowly.

Xu Shiji was even more confused, thinking that if the Pope wanted to use the Tianhai family and the new faction of the state religion to temper Chen Changsheng, why did the Tianhai family never use real methods?

"From the beginning of Meili Sha to now, Li Gong has always been building momentum for Chen Changsheng. If I want to go against the trend, it will take too much effort, so why don't I just go with the trend? I keep people going to the National Church If Chen Changsheng can survive the academy challenge, his strength and ambition will be greatly improved, but what if he cannot survive?"

A sarcastic smile appeared on Tianhai Chengwu's face, and he said: "I know what you are thinking, and what many people are thinking. They feel that my Tianhai family keeps sending those people to challenge the National Education Academy to send sacrifices to Chen Changsheng. , just like adding firewood to a bonfire. There is no way to extinguish it. Instead, it will make the fire burn more and more fiercely. But have you ever thought about what if one day, a big tree suddenly falls? , can this fire continue to burn? Or, suddenly there is no more wood to add to it. How soon will this fire that has been burning violently for such a long time be extinguished, or will it burn? The woods behind it? Since Li Gong wants to build momentum, I will help them push the momentum to the highest level, and then let it collapse. At that time, I want to see how Chen Changsheng can still withstand this kind of momentum. If there is a gap, the Pope’s sharpening of him will directly grind him into a pile of gravel!”

Xu Shiji raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Fire cooking oil often ends in a miserable state, but...if a strong person is really used in the end, I'm afraid Li Gong will come forward to stop it."

Tianhai Chengwu glanced at him and sarcastically thought that he was still so hypocritical at this time, and he didn't know how his aunt chose you in the first place.

"There is one person... who can definitely defeat Chen Changsheng, and even the Pope cannot find anything wrong with her, because she is younger than Chen Changsheng, and she has not yet succeeded in gathering stars." He looked at Xu Shiji indifferently. Said: "In a few days, your Phoenix will return to Beijing. My aunt's love for your Phoenix is ​​known to the whole world. Li Gong wants to build momentum for Chen Changsheng. Why can't we build momentum for your Phoenix?"

Xu Shiji knew that today's conversation had finally reached the most critical moment. He was silent for a long time and said, "She is young after all. How can she afford the aftermath?"

It is not a big deal for his genius daughter to stop the revival of the National Education Academy or even bring Chen Changsheng's papal career to an abrupt end. The problem is that behind the turmoil at the National Education Academy, The struggle between the two saints is hidden. Even though Xu Yourong is the reincarnation of Tianfeng, he is still underage. How can he withstand the wind and rain?

"You have to be clear about one thing. From Zhou Tong to many people, they seem to have done nothing these days, but in fact they have been cooperating with the saint in the south."

Tianhai Chengwu looked at the vast misty lake and thought about that matter. Even though he was as powerful and cold-tempered as him, he couldn't help but yearn for it. He said with emotion: "The North-South Convergence may really be possible this year. It is here." Under this background, the Pope and my aunt were so calm. The two sides could only compete for power but not implement it, so you don't need to worry too much."

…

…

Leave the table and go downstairs.

People with status like Tianhai Chengwu and Xu Shiji naturally walked not through the passage used by ordinary guests, but through a separate passage specially set aside by Chenghu Tower. No one thought that, logically speaking, two groups of guests would never meet in Biandaoli. Today, two groups of guests actually did.

Tianhai Chengwu and Xu Shiji collided head-on with three young people.

Three young people from the Anglican Academy.
