Coming to the new office building, yes, they were all acquaintances.

The current Emperor was Tang Gaozong, Li Zhi, the fourth Emperor of Tang after Li Chengqian’s abdication(The real history was the third Emperor, Li Shimin succeeded the throne after his death), the prime minister, Wu Zetian…

Yes, the Empress of the previous life, after the reform of a woman who could also be an official, was faster than expected to wield the authority of a country.

Moreover, she did not walk the original path, nor did she become Li Shimin’s concubine, Li Zhi’s Empress.

“Hey, Xiao Wu Mei, long time no see! —You are beautiful again! —“

“Sir, it has been five years. You are finally willing to come out of the Imperial Advisor’s Residence. Besides, I am almost fifty years old. Comparing appearance, how can I compare to you who has not changed for fifty years! —“

Hao Yun waved his hand and greeted. Wu Zetian revealed a trace of resentment Li Zhi, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was stunned. Ever since Wu Zetian became the Prime Minister, he had always been an iron hand in politics. He had killed many corrupt officials from aristocratic families and was known as the most iron-blooded Prime Minister in history. When had he revealed his daughter attitude?

“Oh, you know, there are too many people who come to visit without closing their doors. I also like quiet, sleeping, watching movies. How good is that?”

“Ah, you are really free. You just threw a bunch of things to me. I am so busy now. It is really thanks to your prophecy.”

Wu Zetian threw him a coquettish look in a bad mood… Her previous wish was to be a teacher or a doctor. Because of Hao Yun’s prophecy, her father changed the knowledge he taught her and pushed her to the position of the iron-blooded prime minister.

She is a charming girl! —Tell me, if this is not his fault, who is to blame?

“Aiya, how can being a teacher be the prime minister? Don’t worry! —Oh right, are you married?”

“Tsk, do you think there is anyone in the Great Tang who is worthy of me?”

Wu Zetian revealed a smile that looked down on the world. Hao Yun pursed his lips and looked at Li Zhi… Well, it really has nothing to do with me if I don’t like you…

“Alright, you are awesome! —“

He gave a thumbs up and nodded casually, indicating that Li Zhi did not need to be too polite… He had too much contact with Li Shiming, Zhangsun Wuji, and other founding kings, so he really did not think much of Li Zhi.

Well, if even he looked down on him, it was no wonder that Wu Zetian looked down on him even more.

“My Lord State Teacher,

I wonder if you have any high-tech technology to hand over to us this time?”

When he found a place to sit down, Wu Zetian walked up behind him and helped him massage his shoulders. She asked in a delicate voice. She was very envious of the electricity and computer technology in Hao Yun’s hands…

That thing was truly not something that could be developed in a short period of time.

Hearing that Wu Zetian had his eyes on his own intelligent system, semiconductor, and computer technology, Hao Yun shuddered. He did not even dare to let Wu Zetian press it.

“Stop, don’t think about the technology in my hands for the time being. The difference in the era of that thing is too great, and it is not something you can touch. With your accumulation, it will take at least 100 years. I came out this time to tell you that my time is up.”

All these years, no one had ever been greedy for Hao Yun’s achievements in the reform of the Great Tang… It could be said that he was a saint in the world of Sword and Fairy!

In fact, Hao Yun had even said that if he wanted to change his generation, the Great Tang could change its master in an instant! —All the people, including the aristocratic families, would support him! —

When this matter of leaving was suddenly brought up, the two of them were almost scared to death!

If word got out, the current Emperor, the prime minister, and all the Cabinet would not be able to explain to the people if they were to resign, right?

“Imperial Preceptor, don’t scare me! —If you are dissatisfied, just say it! —Even if you want my life, it’s not impossible! —“

Li Zhi was so scared that he knelt on the spot and raised his hand to swear to abdicate… The pot was too big, he could not bear it! —

Wu Zetian was not as scared as he was. She just asked softly, “Imperial Preceptor, what do you want to do?”

“Alright, get up. You’re already in your fifties or sixties, yet you still kneel so easily.” Giving Li Zhi a kick, Hao Yun smiled and nodded at Wu Zetian. “You’re right. I only have fifty years to come to the Great Tang. In addition to protecting the people, I also have to do something more important.”

“Could it be that you can’t stay a little longer?”

Wu Zetian looked at him reluctantly.

Hao Yun smiled and rubbed Wu Zetian’s head. “There is no banquet in this world that will not end. I have already done what I promised Li Shimin back then. Now, I should complete my original task. I should eradicate a devil who could harm the world and do the last thing for the Great Tang and the human race.”

“Devil”

When Wu Zetian heard these two words, her eyes instantly narrowed. Her brain was frantically thinking about who among the newly appeared celebrities could match these two words!

Then, a small country in the south, a name that had invaded the Great Tang many times, appeared in her mind.

“Your Excellency State Teacher, are you talking about the Nan Zhao State Teacher, the Moon Worshipping Cult Leader, Shi Jie?”

“Oh? You know him?”

Hao Yun looked at Wu Zetian in surprise. With the current strength of the Great Tang, it seemed that the Sect Leader of Moon Worshipping had imagined that it was impossible for him to wander around Chang’an and even kidnap the Minister of Rites, right?

“Yes, he came here once a while ago, but he was forced away by me with the Black Armor Guards and the White Tiger Great Formation.”

Wu Zetian said in a slightly fearful tone, “He is very strong. If not for the White Tiger Great Formation that could double the killing intent of the Black Armor Guards, I’m afraid we would not have been able to resist him.”

“What about the Imperial Astronomical Observatory? And Mount Shu? If I remember correctly, Mount Shu joined the Great Tang five years ago, right? The Sword Saint did not make a move?”

Hao Yun was very unhappy. In order to accept disciples, Mount Shu had automatically joined the Great Tang! —What does that mean? If you accept disciples, you don’t care? And the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, Yuan Tiangang has cultivated you for nothing these years! —

“No, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory has just started cultivating, and the strongest Green Lotus Sword Immortal has only just reached the Gold Core stage… As for Mount Shu, the Sword Saint of the Crossing Calamity Stage has sent a message, and the Sect Leader of Moon Worship Sect has his own duties. Mount Shu does not dare to defy the general trend of heaven and earth, so…”

“Do not dare to disobey the general trend? Hehe, I think it is the order of the Heavenly Court, right? Since the rapid development of the Great Tang and suppressing other countries more than one level, this kind of thing is not just once or twice!”

Hao Yun’s tone was very unhappy. If he had already broken through to the mid-level of the Heavenly Father, which was the Galaxy Stage, why would he fear the Heavenly Court? If he annoyed me, I would dare to overturn the Heavenly Court alone!
