Peerless Taoist

Lu Yu waved his hand. "These wealthy families only care about their personal desires. If I care about what they think, then I don't want to be the Emperor!"    

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Li Si was shocked.    

He wanted to ask some questions, but he didn't expect Lu Yu to really have the intention of moving the capital.    

Since the Middle Ages, many dynasties had moved the capital, but that would often change the structure of the entire dynasty's power structure, and it would also have a profound impact on the dynasty's destiny.    

Suddenly, Lu Yu took out another letter and handed it to Li Si.    

The letter was very heavy, and it was wrapped in Demonic Beast fur. The contents inside could not be seen clearly.    

"This is?"    

Li Si looked at Lu Yu.    

Lu Yu's expression was calm as he slowly said, "Help me pass this letter to Xun Sheng."    

Looking at the falling snow outside the window, Lu Yu said, "Xun Sheng once said that it is used to control the Heaven's Will. Now that the human race is restricted, all living beings are trapped in the control of a Heavenly Dao. We can't be free and unfettered. I intend to help everyone in the world get rid of this hypocritical Heavenly Dao! "    

" Your Majesty, what do you plan to do!? "    

Li Si suddenly became nervous.    

Lu Yu's words did not sound like a conversation, but more like a farewell.    

"Give the letter to Xun Sheng. He will understand!"    

Lu Yu got up and pushed open the door of the study.    

In a moment, the cold wind, accompanied by snowflakes, hit his face.    

"I have settled the court situation. Now, I should go and meet my old friend, but I have something on my mind."    

Lu Yu's voice continued to echo in the room, and then he disappeared into the study.    

Li Si's fingers immediately clenched the letter in his hand, afraid that he would throw it away.    

A trace of fear flashed across his face. He immediately stood up and flew away.    

...    

Emperor Capital, Xiahou Manor.    

This was the manor of the Thunder Whale Marquis, Xiahou Li.    

As a family member of the Martial Marquis, the disciples of the Xiahou Manor had maintained the habit of practicing martial arts all year round. In front of the manor, there was a long halberd stuck in front of it all year round, signifying the outstanding achievements of the owner of the manor.    

However, at this moment, the Xiahou Manor was covered in white cloth, and white lanterns gave off a desolate aura.    

"Young man, the mansion is holding a funeral, and no guests are allowed to come."    

The gatekeeper waved his hand, signaling Lu Yu to leave.    

Lu Yu frowned. "May I ask who has left the residence?"    

"It's my master. He died in the Ice Realm a while ago! Sigh, my master spent most of his life in the army. It was not easy for him to become a Marquis, but something like this happened."    

The gatekeeper sighed again and again.    

The other guards also looked worried.    

Xiahou Li was dead?    

For a moment, Lu Yu was stunned on the spot, and he did not come back to his senses for a long time.    

The scene of the past was still vivid in his mind, as if it had just happened yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, everything had changed.    

When Lu Yu had just arrived in the Heaven Realm, he had been working under Xiahou Li.    

In Lu Yu's heart, Xiahou Li was a very pure professional soldier. He did not have many thoughts. He had spent half his life in the army just to let the Xiahou Family gain a foothold in the Imperial Capital.    

Xiahou Li had once asked Lu Yu to take care of his family. After that, he had received orders from the Ministry of War to go to the front line of Luo Shui. After that, the relationship between the two of them had been completely cut off.    

In the battle of Luo Shui, the Great Yu Army suffered a crushing defeat.    

Among the Zhao family's royal family, the strongest one, Prince Daolord Su, had also been seriously injured in that battle. As a result, Shen Linglong stayed at the border of Luo Shui and never returned to the Imperial Capital.    

Xiahou Li left the front line and was once again transferred to the Ice Region. He did not expect to meet the main force of the Tang army.
