Yu Chengyuan prepared for several days in advance, and dealt with the memorial in his hand at random, and then went to the Shunchang Palace where Mu Jin lived.

After returning from the secret realm, researching all kinds of strange treasures became Mu Jin's daily routine.Yu Chengyuan waited outside the door for a while, before he opened his mouth as there was no fluctuation of spiritual energy under his spiritual perception. "Master."

"Enter." Mu Jin put the herbs in his hand into the jade box. "But encountered problems in practice?"

"..." Apparently in Mu Jin's perception, Yu Chengyuan came to Shunchang Palace for no other purpose than practicing.While this is true, it was never his intention.If he didn't know how much Mu Jin attaches importance to the country and the people, how could he do this?

At this time when such an inquiry came out of Mu Jin's mouth, Yu Chengyuan's mood was quite complicated and unspeakable. "I am here this time, not for the sake of practice."

Mu Jin raised his head and glanced at Yu Chengyuan, clearly seeing that he was in a complicated mood at this time. "There are so many state affairs accumulated in the past three years, it's not easy for you to take care of your practice, and you won't have the heart to think about other things. I won't be unhappy because of it."

"Disciple understands." Yu Chengyuan heard Mu Jin's obvious relief, and his heart became more complicated and unspeakable, but subconsciously restrained his emotions a little, not showing it on the surface.

Mu Jin saw his mood at this time, but misunderstood the source of his complicated mood.

Yu Chengyuan understood that with Mu Jin's personality, he would not be displeased by his disciple's visit only because of his spiritual practice, nor would he feel worried about it.The reason why Yu Chengyuan's mood is so complicated is because of the 'other things' that Mu Jin said.

When dealing with state affairs, he would always think of Mu Jin from time to time.Even though he didn't want it to take up too much time, Mu Jin's figure would still pop up in his mind from time to time.

Emotions are really unpredictable, Yu Chengyuan can use reason to control his behavior, he will not step into the Shunchang Palace for no reason, but he can't control whether he wants to or not.

In Mu Jin's eyes, the "other things" that are not taken seriously, in Yu Chengyuan's mind, seem to be no less important than state affairs and practice.But these, Yu Chengyuan could not tell Mu Jin.

"The accumulated state affairs have been dealt with in sevens and eighties, and the old land of the original country has been arranged almost. In the future, I will come to Shunchang Hall, not only for state affairs and practice." Yu Chengyuan's heart is complicated, but he does not forget to emphasize the importance of the current state affairs Progress, lest Mu Jin feel like seeing off guests later.

Mu Jin noticed that Yu Chengyuan's mood had not fully recovered, but he was not going to continue to comfort him. "What do you mean by your coming here this time?"

"I want to postpone the apprenticeship ceremony of Zuo Hao and others until the envoys from various countries arrive in our country, and invite them to observe the ceremony together." Yu Chengyuan did not directly state his purpose of coming, but first mentioned the matter of the observation ceremony of various countries.

"This move is conducive to enhancing Chongguo's prestige among the nations." Mu Jin's tone was slightly appreciative.

Yu Chengyuan's reaction to Mu Jin was not surprising.The courtiers still misunderstand like this, let alone Mu Jin who attaches great importance to the country.

"This time, I accept Zuo Hao and five people as apprentices, and there will still be disciples who will enter the door in the future. With the reputation of Zuo Hao and others, there are countless warriors who want to learn as teachers. It is conceivable that there will be more and more disciples. If only Master and sect match each other, it’s a little too general, it’s better to establish a sect directly. This disciple came here to ask the master to give the sect a name.”

"Zongmen?" There was some clarity in Mu Jin's eyes.

As early as Yu Chengyuan promised that he would only give his disciples the method of breaking through the foundation-building period, Mu Jin knew that such a day would come.

As an emperor, Yu Chengyuan would not think about taking the lead, so he would definitely cultivate a group of usable people.Ordinary people may only train a few or a dozen subordinates, but the emperor thinks about the court and the army.

"Since it is the sect you established, it is up to you to decide. Even though you and I are equal as masters and apprentices, there is no such thing as a master plotting to take away a disciple's sect in this world."

Mu Jin accepted Yu Chengyuan as his apprentice because he was tempted by virtue.As long as the two have this master-student status and continue to pass on the skills they practiced, this merit will be counted on him.The reason why there is not a lot of merit and virtue coming down now is because the number of disciples is too small.If the number is sufficient, quantitative changes will naturally lead to qualitative changes.

This merit has nothing to do with the Zongmen. If it is connected with the Zongmen, it will do more harm than good to Mu Jin.

It may not be obvious at this time, but as the sect grows bigger and more disciples, there will be more and more troubles in the future.Mu Jin never thought of becoming the guardian of a power. If he had this thought, it would be impossible for him to have only a few followers in the God Realm.

And... Mu Jin glanced at Yu Chengyuan.The disciples accepted by Yu Chengyuan are all officials and soldiers of Chongguo.How could the emperor tolerate one minister and two masters?

Yu Chengyuan asked like this, did he mean to test it?Even if there is no temptation at this time, will he have any knots in his mind when he thinks back in the future?

Mu Jin is currently satisfied with Yu Chengyuan, his nominal disciple, and he doesn't mind giving Yu Chengyuan a reassurance. "I don't want to take care of the sect. Instead of wasting that time on the trivial matters of the sect, I might as well study more techniques and pills."

"The techniques of the sect are all taught by the master, how can it be said that the disciples established the sect?" Yu Chengyuan really never had the idea of ​​becoming the master of the sect. "The disciples can do everything about the sect. When the disciples are not strong enough, they will also be protected by the gods and beasts. There is no need to prevent the master from being too concerned."

When Mu Jin looked at Yu Chengyuan, he could feel his sincerity at this moment.For a moment, Mu Jin couldn't tell whether Yu Chengyuan was sincere or not.If it's a false temptation, it's easy to accept, but if it's true, it's a bit unexpected.

"Why do you need one disciple of the sect to serve two masters? Even if you don't care, the courtiers will get entangled." Mu Jin gave Yu Chengyuan a step.Whether it is sincere or false, such a proposal will never make people rift.

"..." Yu Chengyuan couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this.

He clearly regarded Mu Jin as the most trusted person in his heart, so he didn't think about the matter of one minister and two masters.

If it is true to establish a sect with Mu Jin as the suzerain, it will indeed elevate Mu Jin's status, but it will not live up to Mu Jin's good intention of surrendering the divine beast to him.

Mu Jinqian allowed the beast to avoid the conflict between divine power and imperial power. If he insisted on establishing a sect, there would be friction between the sect and the royal family.Perhaps not as far-reaching as the dispute between imperial power and theocratic power, but it will certainly have an impact.

"You really haven't thought about it?" Mu Jin was also a little surprised.

In his cognition, even if Yu Chengyuan is close to him, he still puts respecting the country first.Yu Chengyuan can even miss this matter that affects the foundation of Chongguo, and his closeness and trust in him are obviously beyond expectations.

The two points of doubt in Mu Jin's words brought Yu Chengyuan back to his senses, he vaguely understood that Mu Jin regarded the previous inquiry as a temptation.He knew that Mu Jin didn't have much trust in him, so he still felt a little heartbroken when he faced this situation.

But he knew that it was not Mu Jin's fault. As an emperor, it was not easy to get close to anyone.What's more, he also personally asked Mu Jin about the "Emperor's mind", and mentioned the theory of "doubt".

The past cannot be changed, but now is a good time to change Mu Jin's opinion.

"I was negligent this time." Yu Chengyuan admitted his negligence, and also denied his temptation to Mu Jin. "Although it was negligence, the disciple does not regret it. If the master is willing to accept, what's the problem with one minister and two masters?"

When he said this, he was indeed a bit impulsive, and it would add a lot of trouble to the control of Chongguo in the future.But doing so has an advantage, it can firmly 'tie' Mu Jin with the sect.

If Mu Jin is really willing to become the suzerain of the sect, then he will definitely assume the responsibilities of the sect.The greatest responsibility of the suzerain is not to deal with the trivial matters of the sect, but to become the belief of the sect.Since it is a belief, it will naturally not leave the sect.

This is exactly what Yu Chengyuan desires the most. In Yu Chengyuan's view, it is very worthwhile to exchange more troubles for Mu Jin's long-lasting promise.

"Yu Chengyuan, what you did this time is somewhat unexpected." Mu Jin rarely called Yu Chengyuan by his first name.

Yu Chengyuan clenched his palms tightly, as if he could suppress the sudden disordered heartbeat.This was the first time Mu Jin called him that after he realized what he wanted.

His focused eyes fell on Mu Jin. "Then Master thinks, is my behavior good or bad?"

For Mu Jin, Yu Chengyuan's closeness and obedience are indeed a good thing.But for Chongguo and Yu Chengyuan himself, it was not a blessing.

It was obviously impossible for Mu Jin to speak frankly to Yu Chengyuan, and he hooked the corners of his lips meaningfully. "There are joys and sorrows."

Yu Chengyuan was a little surprised when he heard Mu Jin's answer.Mu Jin attaches so much importance to Chongguo, so he will naturally be worried when he hears that the emperor is a little 'irresponsible'.What Yu Chengyuan didn't expect was that Mu Jin would personally admit that 'he was delighted by the closeness of the two of them'.Even though the intimacy expressed by Mu Jin was not the kind he expected, it still surprised Yu Chengyuan.

Mu Jin didn't get too entangled in the closeness between the two, and emphasized his opinion again. "If you still want to establish a sect, you can take the position of suzerain yourself!"

"If I become the suzerain, there is no need for this sect to exist." The reason why Yu Chengyuan is so concerned about establishing the sect is because the sect can elevate Mu Jin's status.If he becomes suzerain, how can there be any talk of elevating Mu Jin's status?It is already a good thing that it does not affect Mu Jin's status in the hearts of everyone.

"Indeed." Mu Jinshen nodded approvingly, "If you establish a sect, there will be no difference between the sect and the imperial court. It's just that the emperor becomes the suzerain, and the courtiers become disciples. There is no need for one person to have two identities. I don't know. Who suggested that you establish a sect?"

If it was Yu Chengyuan's own idea, Yu Chengyuan would have mentioned it to him as early as when he decided to accept Zuo Hao and the others as his disciples, instead of waiting until now.

"The establishment of the Zongmen was proposed by Prime Minister Wei, saying that if the Zongmen has a famous name, the apprenticeship ceremony will be more powerful." Yu Chengyuan did not hide it.

"This statement is not false." Mu Jin did not veto Prime Minister Wei's statement, "You have not made any arrangements for the many martial arts powerhouses who surrendered, and guest officials have no positions in the court. Prime Minister Wei must have misunderstood that you wanted In order to bring these people under the sect, I proposed that you establish a sect, but I don’t know that you want to develop Chongguo into a country of practice.”

Although Yu Chengyuan didn't mention his own thoughts, he had people secretly test the cultivation qualifications of civil servants of all parties, and his intention was obvious.

"The reason why I didn't arrange positions for them is because I was waiting for their results in the imperial examination." Yu Chengyuan wanted to develop Chongguo into a country of practice, and the people in the court must also be people of practice.

Among the martial arts figures, there are quite a few people who bear the title of "both civil and military". Those who pass the imperial examination can be qualified as civil servants, and the rest of the warriors can be arranged to enter the army.

"If Prime Minister Wei wants a grand title, he can change Chongguo's name." Mu Jin mentioned. "Similar to the title of 'Great Chong Kingdom', only the Chong Kingdom who owns the gods and beasts to protect the country dare to use it."

After the miracles appeared, the world no longer dared to talk about immortals and gods, let alone misappropriating their names.

"What Master said is very true." Yu Chengyuan's eyes lighted up slightly.
