"I heard that Emperor Tang made Li Yuanxi the crown prince?"
Qin Zhao looked surprised because he only learned the news this morning. How could Xu Qian be so well-informed? In an instant, Qin Zhao thought of many things. For example, Hua Xia had powerful eyes and ears in the palace, and his ability to obtain information was even stronger than his, the chief minister of the Tang Dynasty.
"Since you mentioned the situation of King Chang last time, no, you should now call him His Royal Highness, I have also inquired in the palace, but found nothing. Until this morning, the edict to establish the crown prince suddenly came from the palace, I just learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the palace."
"Then have you heard that Li Yuanxi is also bringing a woman with him?"
Qin Zhao looked troubled and said: "Your Majesty has blocked the news about His Royal Highness, so there is no way to know anything."
Xu Qian thought for a while and told Qin Zhao the conclusion of his and Liu Qingsha's analysis. He didn't want to discuss with Qin Zhao, but wanted to see Qin Zhao's true attitude towards Emperor Tang. It was rumored that he controlled the government. For hundreds of years, every Tang emperor had to act as a weak emperor due to his prestige and force. But Xu Qian knew that this was not the case, but he did not know his exact attitude. Now that business is over, all that's left is how to rescue Li Yuanxi and Lin Qiaoni. If they can get Qin Zhao's help, the success rate will be greatly improved.
After listening to Xu Qian's analysis, Qin Zhao didn't speak for a long time. He just sat there without saying a word, as if he was meditating or in a daze.
For a long time, Qin Zhao lowered his eyes slightly and said in a low voice: "We, as ministers, protect the territory of the Tang Dynasty, protect the peace of the country and the people, and are loyal to the emperor's orthodoxy. No matter who he is, as long as he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, there is no different."
Xu Qian understood that although the Tang and Chinese cultures were of the same origin, they were still very different in ideology. The imperial edict was still deeply rooted in their thoughts. Although the Tang Dynasty is now prosperous in science and technology and culture, the political system has not changed and the imperial power is still supreme. Even if it is as powerful as Qin Zhao, it does not have the soul of freedom.
Xu Qian could do nothing but sigh for it. In this case, it would be difficult for him to seek help from Qin Zhao.
The two chatted for a while. Qin Zhao asked when Xu Qian would return to China. Xu Qian expressed that he wanted to stay in Datang for two more days. The figure of Qianshu appeared subconsciously in Qin Zhao's mind.
As a young man, it’s normal to take your girlfriend around for a lot of time.
Therefore, Qin Zhao arranged a team of guards for Xu Qian to protect his safety, and it didn't matter where he went.
Jingxi Villa
"Xiao Huan, can you try to determine the location of the two of them?"
"Okay!" Xiao Huan agreed loudly with her chest raised.
Information cannot be obtained through Qin Zhao, he still has Xiao Huan. Xiao Huan once again demonstrated the magic and power of their blue rats.
This time it only took about two minutes to get a reply - Li Yuanxi was probably in one of the forbidden areas of the Daming Palace, and Lin Qiaoni was under house arrest in Prince Chang's Mansion in the imperial palace complex.
"Forbidden area? Is there a forbidden area in the palace?"
"I'll ask again."
This time there was an immediate reply.
There are three places in the Daming Palace that have been restricted by the Immortal Cultivator, making it impossible for Blue Lie Rat to investigate deeply. The first is the Dragon Blood Pool, the second is the back hill of Daming Palace, and the third is Yuanxiu Hall in the northeast corner of Daming Palace.
"The Blood Dragon Pond must not be the back mountain, but it is possible. This Yuan Xiu Palace, Xiao Huan, where is the Yuan Xiu Palace?" Xu Qian used the elimination method to find out where Li Yuanxi was trapped.
"Yuanxiu Hall is the place where Emperor Tang practiced. No one is allowed in except Emperor Tang himself."
The place where Emperor Tang practiced? Xu Qian touched his chin and frowned slightly. Then we'll start with His Highness Yuan Xiu. If we can't find it, we'll go to the back mountain to have a look.
"Be careful!" Qianshu pulled Shanshan to send Xu Qian, Xiaohuan and Hanhan out.
Xu Qian smiled and said, "You take care of Shanshan and go to bed first. If everything goes well, we will be back as soon as she falls asleep."
After saying that, Xu Qian and the two beasts flew away in the air. Qianshu looked at the figure flying away, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
"Xiao Huan, it shouldn't be too difficult for you two to go to Prince Chang's Mansion to rescue Qiaoni. After you rescue the person, return immediately. Once you find any accident, immediately ask Qian Shu or Shi Wen to use the number plate to return to China."
Xiao Huan could hear what Xu Qian was implying. The biggest crisis came from Xu Qian entering the palace and not coming back.
"Xu Qian, is it dangerous where you are?"
Hanhan also roared softly, expressing his concern for Xu Qian.
Xu Qian smiled and said: "You don't have to worry. If it doesn't work out, I can also return to China. It's just that I'm in a hurry and can't come back to join you. In short, if you need to, leave Datang immediately without any hesitation."
After Xu Qian parted ways with the two monsters, he went directly to the palace.
Although the Imperial Palace of the Tang Dynasty is still called the Daming Palace, it is actually no longer what it was a thousand years ago. Not only is the area more than three times larger, the buildings inside are all newly built. The appearance is also an ancient style building, and the inside has long been modernized. , and even has the highest technological content in Datang.
The imperial palace has been the most closely guarded place in the country since ancient times, both in China and in the Tang Dynasty. Ordinary people can also come to the base of the outer city wall. There are also many people living in the palace. During the day, there are even some people delivering food and drinks to enter. However, they have to submit a pass and use doors that the emperor or officials will not use.
If Xu Qian wants to go in, flying in will not work. There are many immortal cultivators in the Tang Dynasty. Not to mention whether they will be directly defeated by a strong man in the palace, even the protective formation cannot tolerate him being so reckless.
Walking in is the most normal way, but a palace that incorporates a lot of technology will not be as simple as the Los Angeles Auction Center. If you want to get someone's pass and then change their appearance through a golden mask to enter, there is a high chance that you can go directly to the city. Fighting with the guards at the door is definitely not a good choice.
Therefore, Xiao Huan provided Xu Qian with a third way - drilling into the ground.
When Xiao Huan and Han Han went to rescue Lin Qiaoni, they naturally couldn't follow Xu Qian. However, he was a majestic prince of the Blue Rat Clan, with subordinates all over the world. The Tang Dynasty was a key area, so they were summoned by Xu Qian casually. A dozen blue rats with a certain level of cultivation.
Xu Qian came to the foot of the wall in the northeast corner of the outer city, found a very secluded corner, and called the Blue Lie Rat to get started.
The only difference between the blue rat and the ordinary rat is the tuft of blue hair on its head, but the difference is actually huge, especially in digging holes. Although these ordinary blue rats are incomparable to royal ones like Xiao Huan, if more than a dozen of them dig holes together, the efficiency will only be higher.
Don't think that too many blue rats will cause chaos. This family has been in this clan for so many years and has already developed various cooperation methods in different situations. In just a few seconds, a passage of several hundred meters has already appeared in Xu Qian's body. In front of you.
It was so amazing that Xu Qian had to sigh every time he saw the blue rat digging a hole. Where did all the excavated soil go?
Xu Qian came to the end of the passage. At this moment, he was facing the entrance of Yuanxiu Hall. He also felt that as Xiao Huan said, Yuanxiu Hall could not be entered at all.
"Is this a formation? Why does it feel so weird?"
It is normal for Yuan Xiu Palace to have a formation, but Xu Qian is someone who has some basic knowledge of formation. He always feels that there is something else in this formation.
Is it a barrier?
"You can't be so perverted, right? You've already set up a formation, so why is there still a barrier? Do you have mountains of gold and silver in it?"
The formation utilizes external forces and is a mechanism set up by calling on the spiritual energy and rules of heaven and earth. The barrier does not require any formation foundation, it completely relies on the monk's own powerful spiritual power and spiritual consciousness. The barrier is like a tree without roots and water without a source. It cannot last long and is generally used to meet short-term needs. If it needs to be used for a long time, monks are required to inject spiritual power frequently.
Xu Qian was full of doubts in his heart when facing Yuan Xiudian, who was surrounded by magic. For a moment, he didn't dare to act rashly.
"If I force my way in, not only will I not be able to get in, but I will also make noises. Let alone saving people, I won't be able to leave by myself. If I can break the formation, I may not be able to do it. Even if I can, it will take a long time. Time, it would be great if Liu Qingsha was here. Qianshu seems to be very powerful in formations, but it’s a pity that she is unwilling to help me. The most troublesome thing is this barrier. Even if the formation is broken, the barrier is not easy to break! "
Xu Qian had never seen the barrier with his own eyes except for the introduction of the barrier in the grimoire, but one thing he knew was that the method to break the barrier was very simple - forceful cracking. Even if the cracker's cultivation level is weaker than that of the person who set up the barrier, as long as there is enough time and the spiritual power of the barrier is consumed little by little, he can break the barrier. However, no matter what, as long as someone destroys the barrier, its owner will be the first to break it. Time knows, so in addition to blocking, the barrier also has a notification function.
