Chapter 321 The Joker 2

"Who is coming to see me?" Yang Shi said in surprise.

"He is a Taoist priest, who looks very extraordinary, like a god among immortals." The servant said.

"Taoist?" Yang Shi, Li Tong, and Luo Congyan were all stunned.

In the Song Dynasty, Taoism was respected and Taoist priests had a very high status. During the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, the court even issued an order to divide Taoist priests into more than twenty levels, with the same rank as those of court ministers.

"What's his name?" Yang Shi said.

"He said his name is Lin Lingsu!" said the servant.

"What? Lin Lingsu!" Yang Shi and the other two were shocked.

Lin Lingsu was the most famous Taoist priest in the late Northern Song Dynasty. The three of them heard Lin Lingsu preaching when they were in Kaifeng. These three great scholars were also well-known for Lin Lingsu's name.

Hearing Lin Lingsu’s arrival, Yang Shi hurriedly said, “Go and invite him!”

As the servant took a step, Yang Shi said again: "Let's wait, let's go and invite him in person!"

At that moment, Lin Lingsu, Li Tong, and Luo Congyan went out together. When they arrived at the door, they saw a Taoist priest wearing a blue Taoist robe standing there. This Taoist priest had a fairy-like Taoist priest. Who was it if it were Lin Lingsu?

However, Lin Lingsu was much haggard than before. After Guan Shan searched for the treasure of Qin Emperor, the martial arts elites in Jiangnan were almost beaten up in one fell swoop. Elder Wuqing and Shaolin abbot of Shaolin Temple all died there, and he was the only one who escaped. After he returned to Jiangnan, not long after, the Miao and Liu mutiny happened again. After Zhao Chen entered Jiangnan and Zhao Gou died, the "destiny" he predicted was completely wrong. This caused a huge blow to his confidence, making him puzzled. It was not until Zhao Chen was assassinated and disappeared that he recovered some confidence.

He felt that his calculations were indeed correct. Zhao Chen was not the true dragon emperor and would definitely die. It was just that Zhao Chen died a little late.

He is a famous figure in the world and has his own ways. After hearing that Yang Shi and others were going to establish the new king, he came to pay homage to Yang Shi.

"Minister Lin, please come in quickly!" Yang Shi held Lin Lingsu's arm and said with a smile.

Yang Shi nodded.

After entering the mansion, Yang Shi immediately asked Lin Lingsu to sit down and ordered people to bring the best-quality rain front dragon well.

"Zhengren Lin, you are not living in seclusion in Huanglong Cave, why are you here now?" Yang Shi, Li Tong, and Luo Congyan sat aside, and Yang Shi smiled.

"Now there is a great chaos, even those who are transcendent cannot be quiet and free! When we reach our level of cultivation, we already know the destiny of heaven! Emperor Xuanwu is definitely not the body of the True Dragon Emperor. He just stole the position of the True Dragon Emperor! But the destiny is destined to die early! Now he is indeed dead, so I have come out of the mountain." Lin Lingsu looked.

"It turns out that destiny destiny destined him to die early! Haha, it's great! I went to see Miao Fu before, but he didn't believe that Emperor Xuanwu was dead! It's so funny!" Yang Shi laughed.

"I am also a commoner in the Song Dynasty, so naturally I cannot see the Song Dynasty falling into chaos! The country cannot have a king for a day, we must establish a new king as soon as possible!" Lin Lingsu said.

"Lin Xianchang's thoughts are exactly the same as ours. To be honest, we already have a new candidate in our hearts." Yang Shi said with a smile.

"Oh? I wonder who he is?" Lin Lingsu said.

"It was the descendant of Taizu, whose word "Zhao Zicheng" was called Zhao Zicheng. He was diligent and studious, and he was quite polite. He could be the new king!" Yang Shidao.

"Can I let me see you?" Lin Lingsu said.

Yang Shi immediately called Zhao Zicheng out. After Lin Lingsu saw Zhao Zicheng, he could not tell whether Zhao Zicheng was the true dragon emperor destined by "destiny", so he would not say more now.

"We are ready to establish a new king as soon as possible and stabilize the situation in the world!" Yang Shi said.

"I don't know when?" Lin Lingsu said.

"The faster the better! When the sky clears up, we will make Zicheng the king! At that time, Zhenren Lin will need to do some rituals." Yang Shi said.

"So fast?" Lin Lingsu was shocked and said.

"Of course, the faster the better! If we don't get faster and someone has established a new king, what should we do?" Li Tong said.

"That's right, that's the reason!" Lin Lingsu was stunned for a moment, nodded immediately and said.

In Lin Lingsu's opinion, Zhao Chen will definitely die. Song Taizu still has many descendants in Jiangnan and may inherit the throne. If local prefecture officials establish an emperor and spread it all over the world, Yang Shi and others will establish an emperor again, it is probably too late. Therefore, this kind of thing should be done sooner or later, the sooner the better.

"I think it's on the fifth day of the fourth lunar month! That day is a good day!" Lin Lingsu said.

"Will it be a little late? There is still half a month left! There may be a lot of things happening in this half month!" Luo Congyan said.

"What does Mr. Na Luo mean?" Lin Lingsu said.

"What do Master Lin think on March 25th?" Luo Congyan said.

Lin Lingsu calculated with his hands and said, "It is not advisable to get married on March 25th and ascend the throne. On March 26th, what do you think?"

"Okay! Then March 26!" Luo Congyan said.

"Is this a bit too fast? We have no way to prepare in just a few days!" Lin Lingsu still frowned.

"We just want to make Zicheng ascend the throne in front of others! The simpler the ceremony of ascending the throne can be as simple as possible! You only need to go to Taimiao to worship your ancestors, and then our ministers support him in ascending the throne, and then send decrees to all places and order officials from all over the country to respect Your Majesty! By the way, you will also find the imperial seal at that time! After finding the imperial seal, no one will doubt Your Majesty's identity. However, Emperor Xuanwu did not know where he died, and he did not know where this imperial seal was." Luo Congyan said.

"In this way, there are only five days to prepare?" Lin Lingsu said.

Yang Shi, Li Tong, and Luo Congyan all nodded.

Lin Lingsu frowned slightly, still feeling that the people in front of him were a little too anxious. However, all three of them said so, he had to agree.

"Many ministers in the court have agreed to support the new king! On March 26, we ministers will support the new king and go to Taimiao together, and then read the imperial edict in the palace, and everything will be settled!" Yang Shi said.

"Okay! Emperor Xuanwu is extremely cruel. Many fellow practitioners in the martial arts world in Jiangnan died at the hands of Emperor Xuanwu! However, there are still some older generations of seniors. I will invite all the older generations of seniors to participate in the new emperor's ascension ceremony together." Lin Lingsu said.

"This is the best!" Yang Shi said happily.

*******

In the following days, Lin'an City was busy, and many great scholars near Lin'an came to Lin'an City.

In addition, Yang Shi and others were still convinced court officials, and most of the court officials in Jiangnan supported the so-called new emperor.

Moreover, Yang Shi also found some famous people in the city and asked them to participate in the new emperor's ascension ceremony. These people had just seen Zhao Gou being killed by Zhao Chen a few days ago, and now they know these things again, and they were a little dazzled for a moment. Some people agreed to Yang Shi, while others did not.

The ordinary people in Lin'an City were also talking about the new emperor's ascension to the throne.

It was already March 25th, late at night, in the Yang Mansion, Zhao Zicheng was in a magnificently decorated room, with his wife and son beside him.

"I will ascend the throne soon! Then I will be the emperor of the Song Dynasty! That's great!" Zhao Zicheng was full of excitement.

"Husband, I always feel like I'm dreaming! We are from poor families, and now we are going to become emperors, queens?" said his wife.

"We are the descendants of Taizu, how could we be poor and bastards? This is a good thing about falling into a trap in the sky, and it actually fell on my head." Zhao Zicheng laughed loudly, and after a while, he suddenly stopped laughing and kept hiccupping.

He was overeating today and now he was a little nauseous.

In the past, he lived in poverty. Since he was found by Yang Shi, he could eat and drink a lot, so he was uncontrollable and could not stand it now.

His wife patted him on the back a few times, and Zhao Zicheng vomited heavily. After a while, Zhao Zicheng felt comfortable.

"Husband, you don't know how to become this emperor?" his wife said again.

"How many of those who are emperors know how to govern the country?" Zhao Zicheng shouted.

"This..." His wife was stunned.

"After becoming the emperor, we can live in the palace, from now on, we will be rich and prosperous! From now on, we can enjoy it every day! As for governing the country, if you want to do something, do it, and if you don't want to do it, leave it to Yang Shi and the others! Anyway, I am the emperor, I am supreme, and I do whatever I want! The world is my own, and I have to listen to me! Haha...haha..." Zhao Zicheng laughed.

"Dad, why don't we live in the palace now?" asked Zhao Zicheng's son, Song Xiaozong in history.

"This... there is a group of soldiers there now! After Dad ascended the throne, they will naturally make way and let us in." Zhao Zicheng said.

Now thousands of troops under Zhao Chen are still stationed in the palace, and Yang Shi and others cannot enter, let alone Zhao Zicheng.

However, Yang Shi believed that after Zhao Zicheng ascended the throne, those soldiers would definitely surrender to Zhao Zicheng, and they would inevitably let Zhao Zicheng enter the palace at that time. Zhao Zicheng also believed it without doubt.

It was dark, but Zhao Zicheng was not sleepy at all.

"So quickly! I will become the emperor tomorrow! I really can't sleep tonight!" Zhao Zicheng said secretly.

During the night, he stood in front of the window, extremely excited.

It was not until dawn that someone outside asked him out and arranged breakfast for him.
