Getting Simulated By The Empress Is Not My Intention

Not long after, a group of monks armed with knives, guns and sticks rushed out from Qingguang Temple. They looked fierce and directly surrounded Zhang Beichen and the others.

"You guys are the ones making trouble? You're so tired!" The head abbot of the temple held a sabre, his fat head and big ears, he looked like a monk, but he was clearly a bandit!

The moment he saw him, Ci Nian's expression changed drastically, and he asked in surprise, "Why are you not dead? Didn't the Venerable save you?"

"What's not going to die?" The abbot looked at Ci Nian, seeing the beauty of Ci Nian's appearance, he immediately became angry, and said with a grinning smile, "It's really the Buddha's blessing to send such a white and clean doll to the poor monk!"

"Come on, take them all down!" the abbot ordered.

[The monks are coming, they are naturally not your opponents, your men quickly subdue these evil monks! 】

Zhang Beichen looked at Ci Nian, and Ci Nian questioned the abbot, asking, "Why aren't you dead yet?"

At this moment, the abbot realized that the group of people opposite him was not something he could offend, so he hurriedly begged for mercy, "My lord, the poor monk is only forty years old this year."

"I mean, ten years ago, weren't you killed by His Holiness?" Ci Nian asked again.

At the same time, Zhang Beichen unleashed his own holy pressure, and the abbot suddenly collapsed. His face was pale, and he looked at Ci Nian, a memory came to his heart, and he stammered: "You...you are the little boy ten years ago. girl!"

"It's me!" Ci Nian continued to ask, "I'm asking you, why didn't you die?"

The abbot didn't want to answer, but Zhang Beichen's coercion had already broken his defenses, and he said truthfully: "Back then, I was just a young novice monk in Qingguang Temple. At that time, the last Buddha girl had just ascended to the throne, and His Holiness ordered all temples across the country to come together. Looking for the reincarnated Buddha girl."

"I found you. Your wisdom root is in line with what the Venerable said, so I reported it to the temple. Soon, the Venerable came here."

"He decided that you are the next Buddha girl."

"Then what?" Ci Nian's eyebrows were already tightly knitted.

"Then he told me that the Buddhist girl needs to cut off the worldly relationship. He asked me if I would like to be a villain once, as long as I become a villain, I can become the abbot of Qingguang Temple in the future." The abbot said, "I promised him."

"So, I and a group of monks pretended to be robbers and killed your whole family and everyone related to you. At this time, the Venerable Lord appeared and rescued you!"

"Impossible!" Ci Nian still didn't want to believe it, she asked again: "I clearly saw His Holiness kill you!"

The abbot said: "With the means of the venerable, it is easy to cast illusions. You were just a little girl without any cultivation, how could you see through it?"

His words were like a heavy hammer, smashing the compassionate Buddha's heart at once.

Her face turned pale in an instant, she spat out a mouthful of blood, and murmured: "Impossible, why did His Holiness lie to me? Did His Holiness kill my parents and family?"

Zhang Beichen said kindly to her, and let her fall into a coma.

"My lord, I have already said what needs to be said, please forgive me! His Holiness asked me to do it!" The abbot and monks of Qingguang Temple were still begging for mercy.

Zhang Beichen said coldly: "Kill them all, and clean them up."

"Yes!" The subordinates directly killed them all, and faked a scene of cannibalism.

...

When Ci Nian woke up again, as if she had lost half her life, her cultivation also regressed from the half-step holy level to the ninth level, and it continued to decline.

"Why?" Ci Nian asked Zhang Beichen with tears in his eyes, "Is this your illusion? Or did you find a liar?"

Zhang Beichen said in a low voice: "I don't need me to tell you whether it's true or not. You must have already made a judgment in your heart from what you have seen and heard along the way."

There was despair in Ci Nian's eyes, "Why, why did His Holiness lie to me? What I believe in is just a hoax fabricated by others?"

"Who can tell whether the things in the world are true or not. Maybe the world we live in is just a dream." Zhang Beichen said with emotion, "In any case, it is enough to live a good life."

Ci Nian didn't speak, Zhang Beichen gave her time to think.

After several days, Ci Nian was finally willing to eat.

But she was still at a loss.

"I don't know what to do, what am I living for?" Ci Nian no longer recites Buddhist scriptures and obeys the precepts.

Zhang Beichen said: "You don't need to live for anyone, you just need to do what you want to do."

"What do I want to do?" Ci Nian thought carefully about this sentence.

Her previous goal was to become a qualified Buddhist girl, and her merits and virtues would soar to perfection.

What now? What is she going to do?

Ci Nian thought of the miserable people she saw along the way, those monks who did not work but ate their mouths full of oil, those monks who were aloof, those who were guarded and tortured, and those who had the same fate as her.

"I still want to save those suffering and change this country, but I don't want to be a Buddha girl anymore!" Ci Nian said.

"That's it!" Zhang Beichen said, "You don't have to believe in someone to be qualified to do good deeds."

He said: "In the past, the countries in our east were fighting in chaos, and the people were in poverty. I ended hundreds of years of chaos together with King Yan, and now the people live and work in peace and contentment, without having to suffer from wars and famines."

Hearing his words, Ci Nian seemed to think of something, if she can become the king of the Guishuang Empire, like Emperor Yan, she can change everything!

As soon as this idea appeared, it kept growing in her mind.

Zhang Beichen took her on the journey, and soon came to the border of the Guishuang Empire.

"Ci Nian, you don't need to 'save' me now, go do whatever you want!" Zhang Beichen said.

Ci Nian still didn't want to leave, she said: "If you leave this time, you will soon send troops to attack the Guishuang Empire, do you have to do this?"

Zhang Beichen said with a smile: "I have to ask King Kanishka, if he is willing to abdicate and surrender to Dayan, we can naturally retreat."

Ci Nian is of course clear that this is impossible.

She asked again: "Are you trying to conquer the Guishuang Empire?"

"No." Zhang Beichen shook his head, "Dayan is not capable of managing such a distant country. We just want to save Queen Lanxiang and her child, and also make the Guishuang Empire dare not invade Yan Kingdom again."

Ci Nian was thoughtful, and after a while, she said, "I can help you!"

Zhang Beichen looked at her and thought, after so long, you finally said this!

Ci Nian looked into his eyes and said, "I will help you rescue Queen Lanxiang and her child, and you will help me kill King Kanishka and help me ascend the throne."

"If I become the queen of the Guishuang Empire, the Guishuang Empire will be friends with Dayan forever and will never invade Dayan again!"

Zhang Beichen smiled slightly and said, "Deal!"

【You reached a deal with Ci Nian, you returned to the army, and began to command the Yan army to launch an attack. Ci Nian returned to the royal capital of the Guishuang Empire alone. 】

Zhang Beichen has already learned the map and related information in the Guishuang Empire, so the attack is naturally much smoother.

...

Maitreya Temple, kindness comes back here.

"The Buddha girl is back!" The monks gathered around to check and told the Venerable.

Inside the Buddha Light Pagoda, the threatening Venerable examines Ci Nian.

Although Ci Nian's cultivation had declined, her body was still holy, and Zhang Beichen didn't do anything to her.

"Ci Nian, how did you come back?" the threatening one asked.

Compassionate thoughts returned: "My lord, after the demon king kidnapped me, he wanted to get information about the Guishuang Empire. I took advantage of his relaxation of vigilance and took the opportunity to escape. I was injured by him on the way, and my cultivation base regressed."

"Hmm." The honorable person was not suspicious, because in his opinion, as long as the tool of kindness is still intact, then everything will be fine.

Just like that, Ci Nian became her Buddhist daughter again in Maitreya Temple.

The one who threatened his honor left Maitreya Temple.

The battle ahead was not going well, and King Kanishka asked the Venerable Master to go to the battlefield to help.

Once the menacing person left, there would be more room for compassion to display.

...

One day, Ci Nian sent someone to find Zhang Yi, saying that he wanted to follow His Holiness' order and teach Zhang Yi the Dharma, naturally no one doubted it.

"In the next few days, I will teach Buddhism and penance in the Buddha Light Pagoda, and no one is allowed to enter." Ci Nian ordered the monks.

"Yes." The monks would not offend her either.

Inside the Buddha Light Pagoda, Queen Lanxiang saw Ci Nian again.

"The little nun is back?" Queen Lanxiang asked curiously, "Is Zhang Beichen willing to let you back?"

Ci Nian looked calm and said, "He has never restricted my freedom."

Queen Lanxiang smiled lightly, and said: "His method is still so clever, you little girl has already been taken down by him, right?"

Ci Nian blushed slightly, and then said: "I made a deal with him, I'm here to let you go."

"Really?" Queen Lanxiang sighed in her heart, Zhang Beichen is still amazing!

This little nun was stubborn before and was willing to defend Buddhism with her life. In the end, I ran with Zhang Beichen. It's only been a few months, and I have completely forgotten the previous persistence.

"Mother!" A little boy appeared from behind Ci Nian, it was Zhang Yi.

"Son!" Queen Lanxiang asked with concern, "They didn't do anything to you, did they?"

Zhang Yi shook his head and said, "No, they just forced me to study Buddhism."

"Why do you want to learn that? You are going to be the king of Da Yuezhi in the future, don't learn from those bald donkeys!" Queen Lanxiang said.

"I will distract the guards." Ci Nian said, "At that time, you will run out while you are in disorder, and Zhang Beichen will send someone to meet you."

"Okay!" Lan Xiang agreed.

【In the middle of the night, the Buddhist hall behind Maitreya Temple suddenly caught fire. The monks were all alarmed and rushed to fight the fire. 】

Ci Nian came to the outside of the Buddha Light Pagoda and said to the guarding monks: "Quick, all go to fight the fire! I'll watch over here."

"Yes!" The guards all went to put out the fire.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ci Nian released Queen Lan Xiang and Zhang Yi.

The assassins of Yan Kingdom who came outside to meet them took the two of them away.

[After an hour, the fire in the temple was extinguished. The guards discovered that Queen Lanxiang and Zhang Yi had been taken away. 】

In order to make the trick real, Ci Nian even injured herself.

"The assassins of the Yan Kingdom attacked me and took Queen Lanxiang and Zhang Yi away!" Ci Nian said to the guards who came from the palace.

However, the guards still captured her and brought her back to the palace to be dealt with.

...

"Bastard, can the two living beings be taken away? They are still in the Maitreya Temple, the Buddha Light Pagoda!" King Kanishka was furious when he heard the news.

The defense of Maitreya Temple is no less than that of the royal palace. It can all be robbed. There is only one possibility. There is an inner ghost!

That kindness is the most suspicious!

"Your Majesty, Ci Nian has been captured, should she be executed now?" the guard asked.

"No!" King Kanishka said coldly, "Put her under house arrest in the palace, let her attack the holy realm as soon as possible, this king will still be of great use!"

"yes!"

...

[Yan Guo's army marched forward triumphantly, and soon reached the important city of the Guishuang Empire, Huacizimo. 】

Huacizimo is a city built on the desert. A desert river runs through Huacizimo, forming an oasis and farmland here.

Huacizimo is also a node city of the Silk Road. Before King Kanishka plundered the merchants of the Yan Kingdom, the merchants of the Yan Kingdom would come here and bring prosperity here, so Huacizimo became the The pearl in the desert!

Just because of the importance of Huacizimo, this city, like those big cities in the Central Plains, has a solid wall defense, and even an army of hundreds of thousands may not be able to capture it.

"The edge of Huacizimo is desert, and our army can't stay here for a long time!" Zhao Yun checked the terrain and said to Zhang Beichen.

"Threat Zun has already led people to support, and the strong attack was taken within half a year. Our army's supplies will not last until that time." Zhang Beichen thought, "We can only use ruthless moves!"

He locked his eyes on the desert river.

[You ordered the soldiers to go to the upper reaches of the Desert River, dig the river channel, and forcibly divert the river. 】

In the desert, it is impossible to flood the city with water.

Zhang Beichen directly changed the river course.

His army was stationed by the river and had water.

But the hundreds of thousands of defenders in Huacizimo City felt uncomfortable. The weather in the desert was extremely hot. After the river stopped flowing, the riverbed was dry and cracked in a few days, and it was difficult to find water sources everywhere!

Digging the ground can still take some groundwater, but how can it be enough for hundreds of thousands of soldiers?

[A week later, the defenders of Huacizimo couldn't bear the hunger and thirst, and were forced to go out of the city to fight. 】

The Yan army is naturally not afraid of fighting. Although the Guishuang Empire is huge, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is much worse than that of the Yan army.

[After a fierce battle, Huacizimo's defenders were defeated. The Yan army beheaded more than 100,000 people and captured more than 100,000 people. The intimidator led one hundred thousand remnants of soldiers and fled to the Royal City of the Guishuang Empire. 】

[After taking Huacizimo, you leave 30,000 soldiers guarding it, and the rest of the soldiers continue to attack the royal city. 】

...

In the royal palace of the Guishuang Empire, King Kanishka was both angry and terrified, "In less than a year, my Guishuang suffered such a terrible defeat. Why can no one stop the Yan army?"

When fighting in the Western Regions, the army of the Guishuang Empire was crushing, making him think that the army of the Yan Kingdom was almost the same.

It wasn't until he actually confronted the Yan army that he realized that the reason why Yan was able to unify the East and wipe out the Xiongnu was that their soldiers were too powerful!

Without three times the strength, the soldiers of Guishuang would not be able to contend head-on with the Yan army!

"My lord, we only need to defend the royal city. The Yan army has traveled a long distance and lacks supplies. After a long time, they will definitely retreat. At that time, we will lead the army to attack again and we will surely win!" the venerable threatened.

"That's the only way!" King Kanishka said while holding back his anger.
