Kyoto.
Lin Cheng rode his horse and looked at the Kyoto city wall that stretched for hundreds of miles in front of the mountain, like a long line.
There was a sigh of relief in my heart.
This majestic city wall and this arrogant dynasty are actually in danger.
The trip to Huazhou allowed Lin Cheng to see the decay beneath the prosperity.
The officialdom is dark.
The rivers and lakes are full of strife.
Banditry among the people is rampant.
The chaos and darkness of these three make people miserable.
In addition, in the past two years, there have been severe floods and droughts, and victims are everywhere outside every city. Some victims have even turned into robbers outside Kyoto.
All the way back to Beijing.
They encountered quite a few gangsters.
But Princess Yunyao, who had red eyes when killing bandits, seemed not to have seen the bandits outside Kyoto.
now! Even if it's daytime.
Lin Cheng could also guess that there must be scenes of singing and dancing in Kyoto.
Have the high-ranking officials in the court ever seen the human tragedy of starving people everywhere? They will only suffer for the common people and have a taste of carp.
"Master Lin."
Yun Yao immediately stepped forward. She followed Lin Cheng's gaze and looked at the continuous city wall, and continued: "What are you thinking about? You have made great achievements this time, suppressing bandits, cleaning up the officialdom of Huazhou, and suppressing the Jianghu of Huazhou. Every time It’s no small feat.”
"hehe."
Lin Cheng chuckled lightly, looked at Yun Yao's delicate face and said, "Why does the princess take all the credit on me? This time the princess should take the first credit."
"What kind of first achievement..."
Yunyao rolled her eyes at Lin Cheng.
She whispered softly: "Without you here, I am a fragile woman, how can the three hundred imperial troops obey me, and how can the five thousand soldiers of Huazhou be willing to serve me? Master Lin, you only need to take the credit. "
A delicate woman?
Lin Cheng complained in his heart.
This princess is ruthless against bandits and officials of all sizes in Huazhou!
She killed not a single one of the Pingyun Bandits.
Even Xiao Xiami who escaped a hundred miles away was caught up by her and beheaded.
Those corrupt officials in Huazhou.
Before the imperial envoy arrived, Yunyao had already been tortured for several rounds. If he could survive, he would be considered lucky.
Therefore.
He was quite confused when he saw Yunyao sitting and watching the bandits outside Kyoto.
Are the gangsters outside Kyoto City different from the gangsters on Pingyun Mountain?
Lin Cheng didn't intend to ask in detail. What he was even more confused about was... why did the other party give these credits to him?
"Princess, please elaborate on the inconvenience."
Lin Cheng didn't want to play riddles with the other party, but he wasn't afraid that the other party would try to trick him... In his opinion, this princess had a very good character and was definitely not the little fairy from her previous life.
"Master Lin, don't worry."
Yunyao smiled bitterly, with a little melancholy on her face: "It's useless for me to take it, so why not give it to those in need."
"this?"
Lin Cheng frowned.
When Yunyao saw that Lin Cheng still wanted to ask more questions, she simply galloped on her horse: "Master Lin, come after me!"
Lin Cheng did not move and rode slowly.
Let the opponent run far away!
He is a naturally powerful person who chases women on horseback. It would be too embarrassing to tell anyone about it.
Yunyao didn't care whether Lin Cheng followed or not, the dust was rising all the way and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, one of the imperial guards hurriedly reminded Lin Cheng: "The princess has no martial arts skills. Master Lin, hurry up and catch up. If anything happens to the princess, we can't bear it."
As soon as these words came out.
Only a scream was heard in the distance.
Lin Cheng glanced hard at the guard who was speaking, then dismounted and flew away. In just a few breaths, he moved hundreds of steps.
It's like flying!
Many guards and imperial guards behind him were stunned.
What kind of light gong is this?
Also, is Master Lin really a top-notch master? He has no hidden strength?
Although everyone was thinking this, they also followed closely.
A hundred feet away, in the dense forest.
Lin Chengfei landed and saw the big horse Yunyao was riding leisurely eating grass, but Yunyao's figure was no longer on the horse.
Lin Cheng looked as usual.
He fell from a high place and looked around, but found no trace.
No footprints, hair, or scraps of clothing were left behind.
Anyone who can do this must be a master of Qinggong, and Yun Yao did not resist, otherwise the scene would never be so clean.
A hint of anger gradually appeared on Lin Cheng's face.
Someone snatched someone away from him, the most powerful person in the world, and he hadn't discovered anything yet. How could he not be angry?
This is a slap in the face!
Lin Cheng's aura surged around him, like an angry giant beast.
Da Ma, who was grazing leisurely, felt Lin Cheng's breath, screamed in surprise, and fell to the ground, trembling.
With the movement of the phaseless magical power.
The surrounding auras all appeared in front of my eyes.
The formless divine power has no aspect of myself, no one, no sentient beings, and no aspect of life. It can disguise others and imitate the true energy of the world, so it is extremely sensitive to the atmosphere.
In an instant.
There are hundreds of scents in the forest, all distinct.
Lin Cheng distinguished each of these scents one by one. He had been with Yunyao for many days and was very familiar with her scent.
In just a few breaths, Lin Cheng found Yunyao's aura.
And a strange breath.
He moved towards the direction where the breath was escaping, and used Yun Yi Qing Tian Step to quickly catch up.
Miles away.
On top of a solitary peak, two figures stood.
These two people were Princess Yunyao and a masked man in black beside her.
"Uncle Zhou."
There was a trace of sadness in Yun Yao's eyes, and she said with a worried tone: "I disappeared this time, my father will not punish these people, right?"
"hehe."
The man in black laughed.
He looked at Yunyao and said calmly: "The princess is still kind-hearted. Not only did she let go of the gangsters outside Kyoto, she even refused to sacrifice her subordinates. But compared to being married into the Yuanqing Dynasty and becoming a plaything, the princess would rather Which choice to make?”
"Uncle Zhou, please be careful what you say!"
Yun Yao glanced at the other party with cold eyes and said slowly: "I have never meant well. But the bandits outside the city all turned from civilians to bandits because of the court's negligence. I have no reason to kill them. As for me, His subordinates, they are the imperial guards and guards in the palace. They are dedicated to Zhao Yan, so I have no reason to sacrifice them! Uncle Zhou, there is no need to test me."
Hear the words.
The man in black was stunned and hesitated to speak.
After coming back to his senses, his tone became extremely respectful: "Princess, they have made a contribution this time. The emperor may blame them, but he will not punish them."
"good."
Yunyao nodded slightly and softened his tone a lot.
She didn't know what she was thinking of. She turned to look at the man in black and hesitated to speak.
"Princess, please speak."
The man in black noticed this and took the initiative to ask.
Yunyao hesitated for a while, but then said: "If Mr. Lin is punished by his father, can Uncle Zhou intercede for him in the court?"
"The princess seems to be particularly concerned about Lin Cheng?"
The man in black looked at Yunyao doubtfully.
"No."
Yunyao shook her head calmly and said: "He has strong martial arts skills and good strategy. He is a rare talent in Zhaoyan."
Hearing this, the man in black rubbed his eyebrows.
He thought for a moment and then said: "Princess, don't worry, Lin Cheng is just a top-notch person, and he has made great achievements this time. All I have to do is beat him to death. Not only will the emperor not punish him for his crime, I'm afraid he will also reward him heavily." he."
"don't want……"
Before Yunyao could stop him, the man in black jumped out and disappeared without a trace.
Only Yunyao, who was anxious and at a loss what to do, was left there.
…
Lin Chengzheng was following the aura and saw a man in black coming towards him.
In an instant.
The two looked at each other.
When the man in black saw Lin Cheng chasing after him, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes... He had excellent Qinggong, and with his advance arrangements, how could the other party catch up?
As expected, he is a rare talent in Zhaoyan!
He couldn't bear to do anything harsh.
opposite!
Lin Cheng dared to come back to provoke him when he saw the other party, and his tone was cold: "How brave! You kidnapped the princess and you dare to come back. Your Excellency really doesn't take Lin seriously."
Say it.
Without waiting for the man in black to reply, he drew his knife and struck at him.
