Chapter 252: Neon Phoenix Seen Through
Shen Qingzhou was thinking that the plan of establishing a mind for the world and enlightenment for life should be officially launched. After the construction of Jinling City was completed, the entire Daliang would be changed.

There are two directions. One is to use the identity openly and make Daliang act according to one's will. The other direction is to rebel and create new things.

He personally prefers the first way. His current talent is enough to make him invincible, but it is not like the world of Joy of Life, where he has a perverted thing like the army, with a bunch of eighth- and ninth-grade loyal soldiers helping him suppress the world.

If he wants to conquer the country, he can defeat the strong with the weak, but if he does that, he won't be able to improve his abilities while fighting and governing, it's too slow. Even if he really wants to rebel, he has to improve his abilities to the next level until he has the abilities needed to sustain a battle, only then can he be safe.

If he wanted to be promoted to a high position, such as the Minister of the Secretariat, he had to support a puppet. Otherwise, it would be too difficult for him to reach that position naturally.

He was able to be promoted to the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture because of the influence of the Crown Prince and Prince Yu. From now on, if he does not surrender, they will definitely not support him.

He knew that with the help of Mei Changsu, Prince Jing became the emperor, but he did not want to support Prince Jing's idea.

His governing policy was to oppose the powerful people in the world. Even if the emperor made a mistake, he would arrest him. This was something that no ambitious person could tolerate.

When he came to Jinling City, he had already found out that Emperor Liang had nine sons. The eldest son was the most outstanding, but he was forced to death because of his fear. That son was Xiao Jingyu, and he was also the beginning of the Chiyan case.

The second son was the queen's biological son, but died early. The third son was disabled. The fourth son was the crown prince. The fifth son was Prince Yu. The seventh son was Prince Jing.

Shen Qingzhou can only choose three people. He prefers the sixth and ninth brothers. The sixth brother has no competitiveness and has never thought about becoming an emperor. He spends his days in leisure and indulges in romance.

The ninth prince is very young, and if he is supported to become the crown prince, he must rely on himself. As for the eighth prince, he has always been in his own fiefdom, has no ambition, and is said to be bullying the locals. If he wants to take the throne himself, he will definitely be the first to be killed, so he is not chosen.

Between the sixth and ninth brothers, he prefers the sixth brother because he is old enough and doesn't need to wait, and he has a good reputation and is very similar to Prince Ji. In other words, his target is this uncle.

He is not afraid of the death of the cunning rabbit. In his plan, the throne is a mascot. In the future, only he can enforce the law impartially. King Huai, Xiao Jingli, it is best if you have no ambitions. Don't let me down.

……

"Master, His Majesty knows that Lord Shen is overworked, so he has specially sent the imperial physician here." The next day, Shen Qingzhou was still sick, and he wanted to make a good plan when he received a message from Emperor Liang.

Shen Qingzhou knew that this was a test from Emperor Liang. Yesterday, he helped Princess Nihuang from a distance, which was a bit too magical. The besieged archers and guards were basically killed. It was okay to follow orders and accept the consequences.

There was a bloody incident in the palace. If Princess Nihuang hadn't almost been humiliated, this would have been a bigger deal. Emperor Liang himself would have felt guilty and thought it was Concubine Yue who did it. If they had covered it up, the imperial physician should have come last night.

"Let them in." Shen Qingzhou's hand quickly moved, writing five words, and all the energy in his body was used up.

"Heaven and earth have justice." Looking at the milky white color shining above the four words and then slowly disappearing, he felt deeply moved and could not write.

This is "Song of Righteousness", which has the same name as his plug-in. It is also the basis for gaining talent by doing righteous things. He has wanted to write it for a long time but could never do it. After becoming a Jinshi, he could only write four words, and then all his talent was used up.

……

"Lord Shen, you are a little too overworked. You should pay more attention to your health." The imperial physician felt Shen Qingzhou's pulse. The weak pulse and pale face scared him, and the imperial physician returned to the palace to report. "Lord Shen's pulse is weak, which is a sign of exhaustion. You need to rest for a few days at least before you can walk again." After Emperor Liang waved his hand, the imperial physician withdrew.

He believed in the other party. It seemed that although Nihuang's method of using him was strange, he himself would be seriously injured. This was also an illusion deliberately created by Shen Qingzhou.

Emperor Liang also understood about it. Although the death of dozens of guards was scary, Meng Zhi reported that they were not so powerful that they were unmatched, but their methods were strange. Meng Zhi was in Mei Changsu's camp, so he would naturally speak for Princess Nihuang.

Yesterday, Nihuang had taken over the matter herself. He couldn't make things difficult for Shen Qingzhou anymore. He just wanted to test whether Shen Qingzhou had any restrictions in doing these things. He was very scared that when he was sleeping, a guard or a palace maid would start reciting poems. Now it seems that this method cannot be used casually.

……

"Nihuang thanks Lord Shen for saving her life." Princess Nihuang came with the imperial physician to visit her savior. Although Prince Jing showed up, he did not hold the crown prince hostage as in the original novel. In fact, although she should thank Prince Jing, Meng Zhimei and Changsu for saving her life, the person she should thank the most is Shen Qingzhou. She knew very well that if she had ridden a horse yesterday, she could have left as well.

"Princess Nihuang, there is no need to be so polite. I admire you, Princess Nihuang, and I do things from my heart without any ulterior motives." Shen Qingzhou said with a bow.

"This is a life-saving favor, Nihuang will remember it." The life-saving favor is not a trivial matter no matter where it is. Although Princess Nihuang was uncomfortable with Shen Qingzhou's use of her, she offset it yesterday. However, prejudice is inevitable. She originally wanted to test what Shen Qingzhou's purpose was, but Shen Qingzhou did not have any other intentions, so she could not speak.

"Princess, do you have anything to say?" Shen Qingzhou asked.

"Nihuang has been in the army for a long time, and can't keep things to herself. There is something I want to know, but I don't know if I should ask or not."

"Princess, please speak." Shen Qingzhou said.

"At the banquet that day, you had a very coincidental opportunity to challenge Baili Qi, which was right after we had challenged Baili Qi, and we were full of confidence in the three children. Why didn't you take action early and make a big splash?" Princess Nihuang had wanted to ask for a long time.

Now that I know Mei Changsu's thoughts, I naturally want to know about the special Shen Qingzhou who is not included in Mei Changsu's plan.

"Since the princess is also interested in rescuing people from the palace, of course I will help her." Shen Qingzhou's words directly exposed Mei Changsu's plan. This is the advantage of a prophet.

"Lord Shen really has confidence in Mr. Su." Nihuang said in her heart, as expected, but she would not admit it. If it was herself, it would be fine, but there are others.

"Bai Liqi is a member of the Jiangzuo League. I think he will not disobey Mr. Su." Shen Qingzhou said.

"Bai Li Qi is from the Jiangzuo League, how did you know that?" Princess Nihuang stopped pretending. This should be top secret. If Mei Changsu hadn't told her, she wouldn't have dared to believe it.

"I naturally have information channels." Shen Qingzhou said. This topic can end here. Princess Nihuang also understands.

She understood that her cooperation with Mei Changsu had been seen through.
