Mu Sheng was a little surprised after hearing this. She didn't know what kind of magic the patriarch had used. Zhang Daoling, who was captured together with her, was actually a fake, Tao Li Daijiang, an eunuch from the palace.
Just now, Fang Yunyi thought that the emperor wanted to interrogate Zhang Daoling, so he took it upon himself to investigate Zhang Daoling's iron prison, only to find that he had been removed inexplicably.
Mu Sheng was also a little curious about how the powerful patriarch could achieve this.
Fang Yunyi did not give any face to the patriarch. She stepped forward and asked sternly: "Grand chief, I respect you as a hero among women. Where did you hide this old guy Zhang Daoling? Changlin Prison has never been there since it was built. Someone successfully escaped from jail."
Fang Yunyi was of course angry. It took a lot of effort for the leader to come down for an inspection, but there was such a big mistake. This was a blatant slap in Bai Shou's face, and he couldn't even cover it up.
Hearing this, Ahrami smiled slightly and said, "Girl, don't be too confident. I still have many tricks up my sleeve. The place is indeed heavily guarded and it is impossible to escape. Is it possible that you arrested the wrong person from the beginning?"
Fang Yunyi asked in confusion: "When this demon was captured without any help, he obviously had master-level cultivation. How is this possible?"
Ahrami turned to Mu Sheng and said, "I guess Your Majesty will never let Zhang Daoling go, right?"
Mu Sheng nodded slightly and said: "Yes, he is the person on the stage, and he is also a stain on the late emperor. He must die."
Ahrami said: "Your Majesty, can my life be worth his own?"
Mu Sheng sighed and said: "That's not necessary. I have my own way to solve it. I'm curious, what method did you use to steal the throne?"
Ahrami said: "Phantom Spirit Pill."
Mu Sheng said in surprise: "Phantom pill? This is the first time I have heard of such a magical thing. It is really unheard of."
Ahrami explained: "It's normal that Your Majesty has never heard of this elixir. Even in our southern Xinjiang countries, there are only a handful of people who know about this elixir, and I am one of them."
"Actually, the Phantom Pill originally originated from the Taoist sect of the Central Plains. It was lost in the Central Plains hundreds of years ago. It is very difficult to refine the twitching pill. It requires a large amount of blood essence and blood provided by the shapeshifter to draw the medicine. In order to confuse the fake with the real one, I mixed the twitching pill with the real one. A large amount of spiritual power was injected, but the vitality was also damaged, and the result of the refining was enough to be fake and real, which allowed the Taoist spirit to fight for that glimmer of life."
Bian Hu, the prosecutor's captain, looked bitter after hearing this. They had easily taken down the chief of the clan, which would have given the Qingyi envoy and Baishou face, but they didn't expect that one of them got away in the end. The chief of the clan looked like a dead pig and was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. He looked like someone who wanted to kill or cut him into pieces. What should he do? Bian Hu secretly observed the emperor's face to prepare for the next accountability.
After hearing this, Fang Yunyi asked Mu Sheng angrily and said, "Your Majesty, I will definitely capture the imperial criminal and bring him to justice. I don't think this demon has escaped from the Central Plains."
Mu Sheng nodded and said: "Okay, I'm very relieved that Yun Yi is loyal and courageous, but you don't have to chase him. This demon can go wherever he wants. When the time comes, he will still punish his servants according to the canon. It would be nice to have an explanation.”
When Bian Hu heard this, his thoughts became vivid. He stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty also plans to use a peach and plum to replace the deadlock?"
Mu Sheng nodded slightly and said, "Of course, I leave this matter to you, can you do it?"
Bian Hu nodded in agreement and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. When the time comes, I can find a death row prisoner with a figure similar to the demon to replace him."
Fang Yunyi stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, there are masters in the art of disguise among our hundred hunters. Let them transform the prisoners on death row to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
Mu Sheng said: "Well, that's very good. This matter cannot be known to outsiders. Do you know the pros and cons?"
The two of them naturally understood.
Ahrami looked grateful upon hearing this and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Mu Sheng knew in his heart that what he and Prime Minister Huo wanted was the news of Zhang Daoling's death. Regardless of whether his death was true or not, the most important thing was to gather people's hearts. They all needed to find an excuse for the dismissed officials who had advised the late emperor to cultivate immortality. Bring order out of chaos. When Bai Shou catches someone, he won’t even know that it’s already been a year and a month. The most important thing at the moment is to show the court’s resolute and resolute work efficiency. At the same time, he can give face to the patriarch. The patriarch is a talented man with many tricks, so he can kill him. It's a pity indeed, maybe I can still use her in the future.
Seeing that the matter here had come to an end, Mu Sheng drove back to the palace. Just after he got out of the prison, Mu Sheng noticed that it was too early, so he turned to Fang Yunyi who was following him and said, "Yunyi, I really want to go to your Baishou." Let’s take a tour, I was very interested in Baishou when I was a prince.”
Fang Yunyi was stunned when he heard this, and said: "Your Majesty, I will go and report to the three elders right now, so that Bai Shou can be prepared to welcome the holy driver."
Mu Sheng waved his hand and said: "There is no need to mobilize troops like this, and there is no need to alarm the three princes of Wenshan Pavilion. As an ordinary person, you can just take me for a casual visit."
Fang Yunyi hesitated a little when she heard the words. She remembered what the three elders told her and still obeyed the emperor's request. She took out a waist badge from her arms and handed it to Mu Sheng:
"Your Majesty, this is my guest badge from Bai Shou. Please tie it around your waist. Our Bai Shou is different from other monastic sects. We run errands for the court and are heavily guarded. Without a guarantor, Xian Zare is not allowed to enter Bai Shou."
After hearing this, Mu Sheng took the badge and hung it up directly, saying: "I understand, you can lead the way."
Mu Sheng turned back to his followers and said, "You all should go back to the palace first."
After that, Mu Sheng abandoned the emperor's guard of honor, borrowed a horse from Lang Wei, and followed Fang Yunyi to Qingyang City.
Seeing this, Bian Hu had no choice but to order his Qingyi envoy to follow and protect the emperor secretly. He knew that this move was better than nothing. The emperor was a monk and had Master Fang personally protecting him. This move was just to express his position.
The two rode horses all the way to Baishou's residence in Qingyang City. Baishou's government office occupies a vast area, and its scale is much larger than other government offices. The residence is also very close to the palace, almost across the street from the palace. This is just to prevent something like a powerful monk from breaking into the palace at night, and to facilitate nearby support.
When the low-ranking Baishou monks guarding the Baishou gate saw Senior Sister Bingshan Fang Yunyi entering with a strange man, several monks still stepped forward to ask as usual. Normally no one would stop Fang Yunyi from entering.
A low-level monk stepped forward and saluted with his hands raised: "Senior Sister, who is this?"
Fang Yunyi also knew the rules. This was a government agency after all, and strangers could not be let in casually, so he explained: "He is a distinguished guest that the three elders want to see. He..."
Mu Sheng quickly stepped forward and explained: "I am Jiang Sheng."
Mu Sheng adopted the surname Jiang, another surname of the ancestor of the Jin royal family.
The guarding monk took a closer look at the guest badge on Mu Sheng's waist, and said with a smile: "Since he is Senior Sister Fang's distinguished guest, there will be no obstruction."
Fang Yunyi nodded slightly and said, "Yeah."
Mu Sheng followed Yunyi through the many gates. When they arrived at the school grounds, they saw hundreds of Baishou disciples practicing in the school grounds, dancing with swords, or fighting with fists and feet.
Fang Yun responded: "Your Majesty..."
Mu Sheng covered his mouth with a finger, hissed, and said, "Here, I am Young Master Jiang."
Fang Yunyi said with some discomfort: "Okay... Mr. Jiang... Most of the disciples here have good cultivation potential, so they were selected and sent to the headquarters. The teachers of our sect will personally train them."
Mu Sheng nodded slightly and said, "In other words, they are equivalent to inner disciples?"
Fang Yunyi said: "Well, yes, they are equivalent to the inner disciples trained by our Baishou. In addition to the headquarters, we have three stations outside the city. We also have branches across the country. In addition to recruiting potential practitioners in various places, the branches The children train talents for us, and it is also convenient for us to detect the trends of evil cultivators in various places. For example, if ordinary yamen in counties and counties cannot handle cases involving monks, we will be responsible for handling them."
Mu Sheng said: "Near Qingyang City, including the headquarters, how many people do you have?"
Fang Yunyi said: "There are almost more than two thousand people."
Mu Sheng said: "Are they all monks?"
Fang Yunyi shook his head and said: "No, in addition to the monks, there are many ordinary clerks here at the headquarters, who are mainly responsible for handling paperwork, daily chores and the like. The most important task for us Baishou monks is to seize the time. In cultivation, only when you are strong can you serve the court better."
Mu Sheng nodded and said, "Well, by the way, how many Iron Eagle swordsmen are there in Baishou?"
Fang Yunyi said: "Master Jiang, including me, there are only seventeen masters at the master level."
Mu Sheng made some calculations in his mind and found that the strength of Bai Shou was indeed pretty good. There were seventeen masters at the master level and three masters at the senior level, which was the level of the middle to upper monk sect. Counting the Tsing Yi Envoy, he could directly mobilize them in his hands. The power is actually not that small.
