At two o'clock in the morning, Huang Xiaochao returned to the divine capital.
He did not enter the palace, but went directly to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.
Because Huang Xiaochao knew very well that at this moment, Emperor Sui was still practicing.
It was approaching sunrise, and the city of God was quiet.
Huang Xiaochao was not in a hurry, but walked slowly.
Sure enough, someone appeared in front.
But the identity of the visitor surprised Huang Xiaochao.
It's a little girl.
His surname is Shu and his name is Ni.
Although Huang Xiaochao never cared about what happened in Shendu, he knew Shu Ni. After all, he was a disciple of Fu Nanzhu, the right general under his command. He often visited the Xiaoguo Army Hall in Shendu, and Huang Xiaochao knew who Shu Ni was. people.
Because of this, Shu Ni is also aware of Huang Xiaochao. Just as the Xiaoguo Army is afraid of this leader, Shu Ni is no exception. Although this is the first time Shu Ni has spoken to Huang Xiaochao face to face, the so-called influence of his ears and eyes, The emotion of fear is subconscious.
"Commander Huang, please see me, eldest princess."
Shu Ni stuttered and expressed his intention.
Huang Xiaochao frowned.
Shu Ni's face froze, he was so frightened that he turned around and wanted to run away, but he held it back.
Huang Xiaochao said calmly: "Lead the way."
"Oh." Shu Ni Nuonuo agreed, turned around slightly stiffly, and led the way.
In fact, Huang Xiaochao really didn't know where the eldest princess's mansion was.
In other words, except for a few palaces such as the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion that are hard to miss, he knows very little about many places or things in the Divine Capital. He has nothing else to do every day except studying the Divine Kingdom, and will throw general questions to Fu Nanzhu solves the problem, or goes out accidentally like Panmen and Longchan.
So even for the Shendu, most people only know the leader of the Xiaoguo Army, but they rarely meet him, let alone understand him.
The eldest princess's mansion is actually a bit biased. This was chosen by the eldest princess herself. Because she is the sister of Sui Emperor Chen Jinghuai's mother, she is naturally the most favored. No matter what it is, as long as the eldest princess speaks, Chen Jinghuai will not respond. reason.
There are very few things that can move Chen Jinghuai now, and the eldest princess is one of them.
After bringing Huang Xiaochao into the house, Shu Ni disappeared.
Looking at the figure sitting in the corridor, Huang Xiaochao said calmly: "Why did Your Highness call me here?"
Under the weak moonlight, the lanterns hanging around gave off a hazy yellow luster, reflecting the celestial face of Her Royal Highness the Princess. Her face was like exquisite porcelain, white and smooth, with a faint blush on it, like the dawn of dawn. Now, it's like the sunset is receding, making it look particularly charming.
Her eyes were deep, as if she could see into all the secrets in the world. At this moment, her eyes glanced at Huang Xiaochao, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, with a casual smile, like the cold moon reflected on the top of the snow peak, elegant and cold.
But even this kind of Princess, Her Royal Highness, still couldn't make the slightest wave of waves appear in Huang Xiaochao's eyes.
The eldest princess spoke tactfully and asked about the cicada.
Huang Xiaochao answered one by one.
When he left the house at about ten o'clock, he looked back again, thinking about the scene of questions and answers, but some doubts arose in his heart. The eldest princess specifically asked Shu Ni to wait, was she just asking about Long Chan? Why did the eldest princess want to know about this earlier than everyone else? In other words, what does the eldest princess really care about?
Huang Xiaochao, who couldn't figure out the answer, gave up decisively.
And because he was diverted to the eldest princess's mansion halfway, the prince Chen Futu could not wait any longer. When Huang Xiaochao stepped onto the threshold of the imperial master's mansion, Chen Futu had just returned to the palace.
Mei Zongji greeted him in front of the East Palace Gate.
Chen Futu said: "Prepare a gift for me."
Mei Zongji asked: "To whom?"
Chen Futu said calmly: "Mr. Jiang, who is weak and weak in the snow."
Mei Zongji raised his eyebrows.
He naturally knew Jiang Wang's identity, not to mention that he was present when Jiang Qi left the capital.
Although Chen Futu knew more than the fourth prince Chen Chongjin, at this moment, Mei Zongji felt that it was necessary to elaborate on such a sentence for no reason.
In the end, the gift was not prepared. No matter what his father's current thoughts were, Chen Futu gave up the action after thinking again and again.
As the saying goes, it is better to do less than to do more.
Doing nothing, or just doing what you need to do, is the safest thing to do.
...
Shendu Yuyuan Academy is located at the end of South Street.
It is also a relatively remote location because it needs to be quiet.
The Imperial Master is not in the academy most of the time, but tonight is an exception.
Lu Jiuke is holding a book under the moonlight.
Chang Jijiu was sullen and had droopy eyes. He had been imprisoned by the imperial master for too long, and he finally saw the light of day again.
But there was no appetite at all.
"Huang Xiaochao is back."
Looking in the direction of the Imperial Master's Mansion, the Imperial Master murmured: "This time the Longchan demon trouble must be closely related to Yanshan Lord."
The existence of the Kutan Sword God cannot be discussed.
But the answer in Emperor Master's mind was very clear.
"Lin Xizhi is indeed one of the top ten figures in the Great Sui Dynasty, but that is just because there are too few people above Baoxue. This does not mean that Lin Xizhi is overestimated, but that the world underestimates Yanshanjun. Lin Xizhi is not always looking at each other face to face. He only needs to have the opportunity to issue orders, and the real action is the cicada monster, so it is normal for Lin Xi to be unaware of it."
"Other than Nai Hehai, the only person who can orchestrate the Longchan demon incident is Lord Yanshan. The most important thing is that this matter is related to Mo Zhang. Who would be more urgent than Lord Yanshan, who is the son of Mo Zhang?"
Lu Jiuke was still holding a book under the moonlight, as if he had no interest in this matter.
Chang Jijiu looked ugly and said: "Sure enough, Lord Yanshan will not be honest. How has he ever appeared without causing some trouble? The first time he was driven back to the Jingwei land by the national master himself, and the second time he stood behind the scenes, causing Du Yanruo sacrificed blood to a city's troubles and then stayed honest for a while, but he was actually plotting something bigger."
The Imperial Master said calmly: "It's time for you to return to Kutan."
Chang Jijiu's face was overjoyed, but he quickly pretended to be reluctant and said, "I still want to spend more time with the teacher in Shendu."
The Imperial Master said: "Okay."
Chang Jijiu's face froze.
Why don't you play your cards according to the routine?
The Imperial Master smiled lightly, looked at the Imperial Master's Mansion, and suddenly said seriously: "Mo Zhang is really alive, and there are gods in the Jingwei land. It seems that a great disaster is coming. How long will it take for the world to regain peace? If If the Battle of Mozhang happens again, the current human world is likely to be completely wiped out."
Lu Jiuke finally had some reaction, but he just raised his eyes to glance at the Imperial Master, and then continued to read with his head down.
Chang Jijiu couldn't help but said: "Can you please tell me about the content and what philosophy you think about it?"
Lu Jiu looked at Chang Jijiu with murderous intent.
How do I know what's in it? I understand this nonsense.
The emperor's master helplessly held his forehead. One of the two people really studied and understood many principles, but did not follow the principles. The other pretended to be a good reader, but in fact he had no ink in his stomach, and it happened to reveal most of the problems of scholars.
It is really a great shame that Yuyuan Academy has these two things, and they are also offering wine.
Forget about Lu Jiuke, he was never a real scholar, but just like that, it gave the emperor a headache.
"I need to discuss with the Imperial Master tomorrow how to treat Mr. Yanshan. It is obviously not appropriate to treat Mr. Yanshan as before."
Chang Jijiu thought that if he launched an action against Yan Shanjun in Kutan, the commotion would definitely be loud. He said solemnly: "I want to serve the teacher well. After all, the opportunity is rare. If I leave the divine capital, I won't know when we meet next time. when."
This time he really wanted to stay in the divine capital.
The emperor's master went up and kicked him.
Lu Jiuke laughed mockingly.
Taking advantage of Chang Jijiu's unpreparedness, he stepped forward to make up for it.
...
The next morning, cicadas were all over Tangshan in Qingzhou Prefecture.
Jiang Wang was woken up.
The reason was of course that Li Fusheng came to Mantang Mountain to find his father.
Tang Tang denied the matter one after another.
But Tang Guo didn't believe it.
Jiang Wang had no intention of getting involved in this family matter. According to the agreement, he planned to go to Wutiao City again.
Originally, he wanted to take Xiaoyu and the others with him, but after experiencing this evil attack, Yao Guanhai had a new practice plan. He happened to be in Mantang Mountain, a geomantic treasure land, and planned to lay a solid foundation for Xiaoyu to break through the five realms. If he could aspire to become a master, Xiaoyu is undoubtedly the youngest Grandmaster martial artist in the world.
Needless to say, Akong couldn't move her feet in front of Mu Lanzhen's barbecue.
Therefore, Jiang Wang only took Ru Yanqing with him in the end, without disturbing the "friendly relationship" between Tang Tang and his daughter. He informed Mu Lanyu and left Mantang Mountain.
Now Jiang Wang has the power of a real snow bather under normal circumstances. Although it is at a weak level, but after the consumption of Jiuying, he is not as weak as he imagined afterwards. He is just relatively normal. He hugged Ru Yanqing directly, floated in the air, and soon left Qingzhou Mansion.
Yueshang County is far away from Qingzhou Prefecture, and Jiang Wang has not reached his destination directly. His strength under normal circumstances is also not long-lasting. Rather than aggravating his weakness, Jiang Wang would rather walk for a while and rest for a while.
The monsters retreated, and Cui Pinglu led the Qingxuan Department's demon-suppressing envoys as well as the monks of the Changshou Sect and the masters recruited by the government offices in each town to fight back, thus making it difficult for the demons to be seen in the counties within the territory, truly reflecting a peaceful and prosperous age. scene.
But Jiang Wang knew very well that this was only temporary.
Stop and go, nothing happened along the way.
It was already ten days after we arrived at Wutiao City.
Everything is over in Longchan, but something new is starting to happen in Wutiao City.
Because God has come to man.
It was Zhang Yao who greeted Jiang Wang.
Looking at the Wutiao City that was completely different from the last time I saw it, the scenes of warriors performing arts in the streets, monks chatting in the tower, or performing the art of controlling the sky completely disappeared. The whole city became empty, empty not of people, but of sounds. and lively.
"Who is here? Is it because of the formation of the cicada?"
Jiang Wang could easily imagine it. After all, it is well known that Wutiao City is very mysterious. This mystery lies within. If you really think about the feat of the deputy city lord in setting up the entire Long Chan, you can always come up with many questions.
Zhang Yao nodded and said, "Prince Chen Futu is here in person."
When Jiang Wang mentioned Chen Futu, Jiang Wang's first thought was that he made the judge retreat to Naihehai over a drink in front of the Panmen Barrier. Although anyone with a discerning eye knew that the judge would definitely retreat, but he had to retreat successfully. It makes sense, but of course it doesn't make sense if it's just a drink, so the key point is Chen Futu's performance.
No matter how absurd it is, it proves that Chen Futu is not just a tool, but really relies on his own ability. With a drink, the judge is completely satisfied and retreats in a reasonable manner.
Thinking of Li Shenyuan and Xiao Shinian, Jiang Wang naturally preferred Wutiao City. He looked at Zhang Yao and asked, "Is there any difficulty?"
Zhang Yao said: "It's okay, the deputy city lord can handle it."
Jiang Wang asked again: "Li Shenyuan is in Wutiao City?"
Zhang Yao was slightly stunned and said: "This is exactly why the deputy city lord invited you here."
Jiang Wang was relieved.
But soon his face tightened and he said in a panic: "You don't want to take blood, do you?"
Zhang Yao was silent for a moment and said: "That is the last resort."
You really don’t hide anything!
Is it too late for me to run now?
Zhang Yao said: "The deputy city lord is still interviewing Chen Futu. I will arrange for you to rest somewhere temporarily."
Jiang Wang shook his head and said, "Take me directly to see Li Shenyuan."
Zhang Yao said indifferently: "That's okay."
"Jing Sansan didn't come back?"
"Going to the Changshou Sect."
Jiang Wang wondered: "What are you going to do there?"
Zhang Yao said: "Mr.
Just chatting all the time, Jiang Wang took Ru Yanqing's little hand and followed Zhang Yao to the attic where Li Shenyuan was.
Zhang Yao was relieved and turned around to leave after just explaining.
Paying attention to the surrounding eyes, Jiang Wang reached out and knocked on the door.
Some people died, but not completely...
