Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Since the topic has progressed to this point, Jiang Xinxin no longer hides her thoughts.

"In my opinion, Prince Langya is really not suitable to be an emperor. He is only suitable to be an obedient minister, not an emperor who holds all the power in the world."

"This is a character flaw of Prince Langya."

"An emperor who doesn't want to be a drunkard and a tyrant will want to establish a legacy. Even if such a person lacks ability, his vision will definitely be broad."

"Looking at what the current ruler has done to the King of Langya, he may not be the act of a wise ruler, but he is not stupid at all. At least during his reign, the lives of ordinary people have improved. I'm sure the King of Langya cannot do this."

"He does have some charisma, which can attract many people to work with him, but governing the world is a completely different matter from governing the martial arts world. Based on what Prince Langya has done, I don't think he has such ability."

Xiao Se wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only sulk by himself.

Jiang Xinxin continued, "Secondly, looking at the followers of the former Langya King, I know that he is more suitable to be a pure Jianghu swordsman, rather than a royal relative, and even less suitable to sit on the throne."

"The matter of fighting for the throne is so dangerous. Those people chose to follow him because they were attracted by his charisma. Most of them didn't even ask for anything in return. They just hoped that he could make Beili a better place."

"However, in fact, Prince Langya himself backed down at the last moment and gave up the throne that he had a good chance of getting."

"It's not that he can't give up the throne, but he never thought about what would happen to his followers if he backed down at the last minute!"

"Moreover, he has retired, but he has not completely retired. He is still active in the center of power and even has military power that can directly threaten the emperor. What do you think he wants to do?"

"If this person wasn't the Prince of Langya, who has a very close relationship with you, wouldn't you, Xiao Se, be afraid of such a person?"

Xiao Se fiercely retorted: "Uncle Wang has never thought of rebelling!"

Jiang Xinxin let out a long sigh, not understanding why Xiao Se was still struggling here.

"It doesn't matter whether he rebels or not. What matters is that his subordinates are no longer satisfied with him being just a prince. Moreover, even if he doesn't agree, his subordinates are capable of pushing him to the throne!"

"He has the ability to successfully rebel. This is what Emperor Mingde fears the most!"

"It is a crime to possess a treasure, understand?!"

Xiao Se naturally understood, but sometimes things didn't happen to people close to him, so he could see it clearly. But now, such a thing happened to his uncle and teacher who was like a father to him, and the other party was his father who doted on him since he was a child. How could he think about it in that way? !

At this moment, Jiang Xinxin, who had always been simple and mysterious in his eyes, directly pierced the illusion he had been maintaining. This not only made him very embarrassed, but also made his mind complicated.

"Is there no one in this world who doesn't want power? If you want to gain power, do you have to... do this?!"

Jiang Xinxin didn't feel angry or anything after being yelled at by Xiao Se. Instead, she felt a bit of pity for him, but she quickly concealed it so that Xiao Se didn't see it.

"Power has no inherent nature. Whether it is cold or hot, it is all given by humans. Power itself exists because of humans. I myself do not understand how to possess power or how to use it, but I know that there is nothing perfect in this world, and it is impossible for a person to get everything."

“Even if you think you have all the good things in this world, you may have lost everything behind the scenes.”

Jiang Xinxin felt that Xiao Se should understand this, so she had planned to say something else. But when she saw the full moon above his head, she was speechless.

"You see, when the moon is full, there are only a few stars left in the sky, and when the moon is crescent, that's the best time to appreciate the stars."

Early the next morning, Lei Wujie continued to climb the pavilion. Passing the tenth level of test required more than just simple martial arts, but Lei Wujie still climbed the pavilion relatively smoothly. However, he came down soon and asked Xiao Se how to gamble, because he met Luo Mingxuan, a disciple of the Luoxia Fairy Yin Luoxia, and Luo Mingxuan asked to compete with him in gambling skills.

Xiao Se was not in a good mood, but he still advised Lei Wujie: "No matter what kind of gambling game it is, if you want to win, you must first have the determination to win!"

"However, if you meet Luo Mingxuan, you can use some things other than gambling."

Lei Wujie suddenly realized and went up again with full confidence.

However, seeing Jiang Xinxin's calm expression, Xiao Se couldn't help but say, "Miss Jiang seems to be very optimistic about that hottie."

Jiang Xinxin didn't care what Xiao Se meant, "Yeah, Lei Wujie is still a bit lucky, otherwise how could he meet you."

After listening to this, Xiao Se asked directly, "Recently, I seem to hear you talking about luck and destiny a lot. Have you heard that there is a Taoist swordsman on Wangcheng Mountain? It is said that he possesses all the luck and destiny of the people on Wangcheng Mountain. If he wants to go down the mountain, it will definitely cause chaos in the world. Therefore, the imperial court has stationed 500 elite soldiers at the foot of Wangcheng Mountain."

"Miss Jiang, do you have anything to say about this?"

Jiang Xinxin had never seen the Taoist swordsman, and she only heard Xiao Se mention it now. What else could she think?

However, the system said to Jiang Xinxin: "The Taoist Sword Immortal was an immortal in his previous life, but he died young. The underworld of his world is incomplete. Even though he was reincarnated into this world, he only washed away his past life memories, but not his soul. Therefore, this side of the Heavenly Dao is very concerned about him."

"The Taoists in this world could not explain why he could have such a strong destiny, so they linked him to the destiny of the country, the destiny of the military, and so on. He himself was also trapped by these things and could not escape from the cage for a while."

Taking this opportunity, Jiang Xinxin asked the system: "I think the martial arts of this world are very unusual. Has this world begun to evolve into a high-level martial arts world? One day in the future, there may even be a possibility of cultivating immortals?"

The system said, "Yes, yes, there are already people who have left their mortal bodies in this world, but most people are not ready to face the high concentration of spiritual energy. This process will take about 500 years. By then, when we come back, we may be able to see people who practice immortal cultivation."

Jiang Xinxin talked so much to the system, but it actually took less than a cup of tea.

Jiang Xinxin said: "The origin of that Taoist swordsman is indeed a bit strange. His own strong luck is brought from his previous life. Strictly speaking, it is only good for this world and not bad. If his state of mind is perfect and he can escape from the cage, he will be the first person to see another world."
