Lin Ze watched Hui Shi leave with Jiang Yuesheng without waves, the seeds had been planted, and a lot of fertilizer had been applied, whether it could blossom and bear fruit depended on the will of God.

From the day when Dao Sheng deliberately shackled Lin Ze, he thought that there might be a day when the two of them would calculate each other.

It's not about morality, it's about profit.

Dao Sheng has his pursuits and yearnings, while Lin Ze has a certain desire that penetrates the bone marrow.

From the bottom of his heart, Lin Ze actually didn't want to compete with an old treacherous and cunning like Dao Sheng, and there were countless hole cards hidden, because there was no certainty of victory, even if Lin Ze had the killer features of "knowing the destiny of heaven" and "going against the destiny of heaven".

As we all know, the Confucian saint was able to step into the realm of saints back then, and it was inseparable from the guidance of the Taoist saints, and the green cows that the Taoist saints had raised for tens of thousands of years were comparable to the realm of saints.

Even in this world of great controversy, the Buddha and Confucian Sage Tongtian Sword Master of the same realm, in order to prevent the opportunity from being snatched away by the Dao Sage, will join together to deal with the Dao Sage with such a tacit understanding.

From this, we can see how unfathomable the Dao Saint is.

If Dao Sheng treats Lin Ze sincerely, Lin Ze will definitely fully cooperate with him, so as to achieve a win-win situation, which will be the most ideal result and the lowest risk.

It's a pity that there is no if, although Dao Sheng did not show obvious malice, but for Lin Ze, who was apprenticed halfway, in addition to calculation, I am afraid that there is not much sincerity left.

From a certain point of view, Lin Ze just passively responded to the battle, and even appropriately expressed his willingness to bow his head.

For example, he still treats the Dao Saint with a teacher's courtesy, and for example, he deliberately took half of the cultivation as the Seal Three Saints, which not only solved the great enemy of the Dao Palace, but also showed the Dao Saint that he was not a big threat to the Dao Saint now.

It's a pity that it's all useless, the Dao Sage won't trust him, and Lin Ze can't believe the Dao Sage without reservation.

Reviving the Tree of the Wood God Tree seems to be the best way to repair the relationship between the two, but it will also become the fuse for the two to break up completely.

Lin Ze was even a little suspicious, this matter was simply a bureau set up for him by the Dao Sheng, a bureau that could make him never recover, in order to avenge him by sacrificing the mandate of heaven and seizing the opportunity to transcend the realm.

If a saint uses the method of returning to the same path to suck other saints dry, will it break the barrier to transcendence?

Lin Ze sighed secretly: "I can't think about it anymore, if I think about it like this, the next time I see the Dao Saint, I'm afraid I will have to rush up and fight." ”

"The situation is stronger than people, even if you know, you still have to endure it. ”

Thoughts like these flowed through Lin Ze's mind and then dissipated without a trace.

Lin Ze's expression returned to calm, and he looked at the indignant generals.

Lin Ze did not feel strange at all the performance of the generals, technicians always have an indescribable arrogance, and this arrogance is often the key point to promote technological progress and even create miracles.

For example, there have been draftsmen who have spent decades and traveled thousands of mountains and rivers in order to draw a complete and clear map of the country, and there are also swordsmiths who do not hesitate to sacrifice their swords in order to cast divine weapons.

So Lin Ze didn't get angry because of this, but said with a smile: "The altar to be built this time is extraordinary, and some supernatural materials will be used. ”

"I will order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to give the Ministry of Industry a list of the treasures stored in the treasury, both for the rapid mobilization of materials and for the preparation of substitutes in advance, so as to ensure the smooth and rapid completion of the altar. ”

"If the altar can be successfully completed within a month, I will give you a rich reward, and the fifteen people who are in the top rank of merit can go into the treasury to choose a treasure, regardless of its value. ”

As soon as Lin Ze's words came out, many generals, including the left and right attendants of the Ministry of Works, not only dissipated their grievances, but also rejoiced.

The treasures stored in the treasury, although the quantity is not as good as His Majesty's inner treasury, and the quality is slightly inferior, it is also a rare treasure in the world.

Take one out, let alone set off a bloody storm, as an ordinary family heirloom is more than enough.

Xu Gao, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, was keenly aware of the emotional changes of his subordinates, and while secretly sighing at His Majesty's clever methods, he took the lead in bowing and saluting: "The ministers will obey Your Majesty's will and will definitely complete the task as your Majesty expects." ”

The real cleverness is not only in the reward, but in the top fifteen, which is also a common problem of technicians, who like to compete with others in their own fields.

Rewards may be important, but often honors outweigh rewards.

The simple way of the emperor, Lin Ze is very familiar with it.

Lin Ze was more satisfied with everyone's performance, waved his hand and said: "There is no need to say much about the scene, everything depends on Zhu Qing's next performance, I hope that Zhu Qing will not let me down." Okay, it's getting late, so I won't leave you behind, let's go back and rest. ”

"The ministers retired. ”

Xu Gao saluted and bowed away.

After a while, inside and outside the study, only Lin Ze and Wu Fan were left.

"Inform the prime minister and the ministers that I will come to the study tomorrow to meet me, and I have important arrangements. ”

The minister went at once. ”

"Don't worry, this time the Jinyi Guard will come in handy, you also have a bottom to the people below, those who are outstanding, I will not hesitate to reward, those with mediocre abilities, resign as soon as possible, so as not to harm themselves and their families. ”

Wu Fan's expression was grim, and he bowed down and said, "The minister will definitely convey His Majesty's will." ”

Lin Ze waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, I'm a little tired." ”

"Weichen retreated," Wu Fan looked respectful, and his pace quickened and withdrew from the study.

After Wu Fan left, Lin Ze let out a light breath.

......

In the early morning of the second day, Lin Ze woke up from meditation, opened the door of the study refreshed, and breathed purple gas at the rising sun.

This is a good habit that he has developed since he stepped into the martial arts.

Zhuang Zhou went out last night to "persuade" Buddhism, Confucianism and overseas Taoism to help, but he has not returned, I don't know if it is because he has not found anyone, or he has not been able to "convince people with virtue".

In Lin Ze's view, the Three Sages have been sealed, and Buddhism and Confucianism will succumb to sooner or later in order to keep the Taoist system.

As for the overseas Daomen, they didn't dare to resist the Dao Palace, and this time they won't be in trouble.

When he was nine times out of ten, Lin Ze was not worried at all, he was afraid that Zhuang would be soft-hearted and would not be willing to squeeze those people.

In that case, Lin Ze would have to go to Buddhism, Confucianism and overseas Taoism, and be a wicked person who bullies the small and persecutes his fellow Taoists.

Although Lin Ze doesn't care much about this, being a good person seems to be a little better than being a wicked person who is secretly cursed and abused.

Lin Ze kept breathing purple qi while thinking wildly.

Wu Fan hurriedly came to Lin Ze, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the prime minister and others have entered the palace, do you want them to come to see you at this moment?"

Lin Ze did not respond to Wu Fan immediately, but finished the whole set of actions, and the purple qi circulated in his body for one hundred and eight weeks, and then spit out a mouthful of turbid gas containing impurities, and Fang replied: "Let the prime minister and others come over." ”

"No"

Wu Fan got the will and left in a hurry.
