Furong saw Feiyun and quickly saluted. After entering the capital, Furong studied literature with Shangguan Wan'er. She was also Wu Wei's proud disciple and was already accomplished in both literature and martial arts. She also became a celebrity around Wu Zetian, but she could not be ignored by others, but she did not dare to be rude in front of Feiyun, good times and beautiful scenery.
Feiyun returned the greeting and asked: "Sister Furong, why do you have time to come here? Don't you want to follow the emperor?"
Furong was a little embarrassed, knowing that Feiyun might have misunderstood her. She had to explain that she really couldn't leave Wu Zetian casually, and she had long wanted to visit Feiyun and the others.
Liangchen was very angry at Fu Rong's indifference and didn't want to hear her explanation, so he asked her what happened. Furong had no choice but to tell Feiyun that Wu Zetian invited Feiyun into the palace to discuss important matters. Liangchen asked what it was, and Furong said she didn't know.
Feiyun thought that Wu Zetian rarely invited her directly into the palace. With her temper, she would not do this unless there was something important. What's more, Furong was sent to deliver the message, not anyone else. After all, Fu Rong had an old relationship with her, and Wu Zetian was obviously afraid that if someone else came, Feiyun wouldn't buy it.
Feiyun thought for a while and agreed to Furong to go to the palace. Tianxiang and others are naturally worried and must follow. However, Feiyun asked Lian'er, Liu Qiong and Jin Ding to stay in the palace while he went with the fragrance, good time and beautiful scenery.
Soon, Furong led Feiyun and the others into the palace, and went directly to the main hall to meet Wu Zetian. When Feiyun and the others saw Wu Zetian, they bowed and saluted.
Wu Zetian waved his hand and said: "Young Master Lin, you are not outsiders, why are you so polite!"
Before Feiyun could speak, Liangchen said first: "Your Majesty, he is apologizing for not coming to see you these days, so he wants to apologize with a gift. I just said it was not necessary, but he said that the gift cannot be abolished, so there is nothing I can do! "
Feiyun listened to Liangchen's nonsense and couldn't help but glance at her, but when he saw her winking at him, he didn't say anything. Wu Zetian was amused by Liangchen and said with a smile: "You girl, you are fooling me for him again. Don't worry, I am just talking casually and I won't really blame him."
Feiyun and others quickly thanked Wu Zetian and asked her what important matter she had for them.
Wu Zetian then said: "Young Master Lin, I heard from Chang Ping that just after leaving a Phoenix Hall, another Dragon Gate popped up. What's going on with this Dragon Gate?"
Wu Zetian was really puzzled. She had already appointed Li Xian as the crown prince, so no one should oppose her anymore. Now that Di Renjie is dead, she no longer has anyone capable around her. After she learned about Longmen, she was very nervous, so she called Feiyun to find out the situation.
Feiyun immediately replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry. The power of Longmen is greatly damaged now, and it is estimated that it will not be able to cause trouble in the near future. I will find a way to force their power out of the capital." Feiyun then told her about the situation of Longmen, Although he knew that Li Xian had also reported it to her.
Wu Zetian was still a little worried, so he said: "I know you are unwilling to serve in the court, so you can travel more in the world. Sooner or later, I will pass the throne to the descendants of the Li family, but I don't want the world to be in chaos. You are still my gold medal. The secret envoy specializes in dealing with treasonous gangs, corrupt officials, and bullies! I have already told the world about this matter."
Feiyun saw that Wu Zetian trusted him so much and hurriedly expressed his gratitude again. Although he doesn't like Wu Zetian, only Wu Zetian can stabilize the world now. If something happens to Wu Zetian, Li Xian may not be able to control the situation, which may lead to chaos in the world, and the people of Li will naturally suffer. Feiyun didn't want to see such a result, so he could only support Wu Zetian secretly.
Wu Zetian looked at Tianxiang and then said: "Miss Tianxiang, should we pay a betrothal gift to your family for Shaoxia Lin? I know that you and Shaoxia Lin have been engaged for a long time, so we should organize the wedding for him and you. What do you think?"
Tianxiang suddenly blushed and lowered her head shyly. Fei Yun'e didn't want to discuss her marriage in front of everyone, so she quickly said: "Your Majesty, this matter is not urgent. Doesn't your Majesty still have something else you want me to do? Let's wait until these things are done!"
Wu Zetian knew that Feiyun was rescuing Tianxiang. Since Feiyun didn't want to mention it, he said calmly: "I want you to use your strength to resolve the Longmen matter as soon as possible. As for other matters, I can only wait for this matter to be resolved. We’ll discuss it later.”
Feiyun immediately promised Wu Zetian that he would find a way to deal with Longmen. He felt that he had been delayed in the palace for a long time, and he was afraid that Lian'er would worry about him, so he said to Wu Zetian: "Your Majesty, since everything is fine, I will leave first."
Wu Zetian asked in surprise: "Do you have anything else to do?" Liangchen left Lian'er in the palace in a hurry, and might be very worried about Feiyun.
Wu Zetian nodded and said to Feiyun: "In that case, you can go back!" Feiyun and others thanked Wu Zetian, got up, left the palace, and returned to the palace.
Lian'er was very happy to see Feiyun back. Everyone sat down in the hall. Feiyun asked Lian'er, "Lian'er, how is Princess Yanmei's recovery from her injury?"
Lian'er replied: "Brother, the princess's injury is no longer serious. In a few days, she should be able to fully recover."
Feiyun was overjoyed and turned to Liu Qiong and said, "Brother Liu, I'm really sorry for making your hard work go in vain this time!"
Liu Qiong smiled slightly and said: "Brother Lin, you're welcome. If there's nothing serious, I think I'd still like to go back to my hometown. We've been away from home for a long time, and we miss our hometown quite a lot. If brothers need our help in the future, we'll be here. Be here! Just like this time you sent someone to bring Miss Lian'er back, didn't we follow you back?"
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Feiyun said no more and turned to Lian'er: "Lian'er, do you still plan to go back? I plan to let the good time and beautiful scenery bring your parents to live here! You don't have to do it yourself. It’s too hard to go back.”
Lian'er said: "Brother, you know that my parents don't want to leave their hometown. They are used to the life there. Besides, I have made great progress in martial arts now, and I have Brother Liu and his wife accompanying me, so there won't be any accidents." Feiyun thought to himself. That's true.
Feiyun was silent for a moment, but Liangchen said: "Brother, sister Lian'er misses home. Let her go home and stay for a while to spend time with her parents. After a while, we will pick her back up."
Liangchen knew that Feiyun would be very busy next, trying to find a way to deal with Longmen. Pei Shouyi and Li Gui are not easy to deal with. I'm afraid there will be many fierce battles ahead. She knew that Lian'er's martial arts skills were still limited, but she didn't want Lian'er to be in danger. It's a good thing that Lian'er left the capital. Feiyun didn't say anything after hearing Liangchen's words.
As soon as it got dark the next day, Liu Qiong, his wife and Lian'er packed their bags. Liu Qiong asked Jin Ding and Lian'er to sit in the carriage while he drove in front. Feiyun sent them outside the city with the fragrance, good time and beautiful scenery, and said goodbye in tears.
Time flies, and more than a month passed quickly. Feiyun still couldn't find any clues, and there was no news at all from Longmen. Feiyun and others had no choice, so they came to the East Palace to ask Ximenshan and others if they had discovered anything.
After the four Feiyun people saw Ximen Shan, Ximen Shan also said that there was no movement in Longmen. Ximenshan then told Feiyun that Duan Qing and Hongjun had got married in Nanzhao, and the two had returned to the capital a few days ago. Feiyun was overjoyed when he learned about it, and immediately said he would meet them later.
After everyone talked for a while, Li Xian held a banquet to welcome Liu Shui and others. Feiyun wanted to say goodbye and leave the palace, but Li Xian and the Crown Princess refused, so Feiyun and others had to stay in the East Palace.
At midnight, Feiyun was practicing in the courtyard when he heard movement on the roof. Feiyun hurriedly flew up to the roof and saw three figures passing quickly on the roof in front of him.
Feiyun felt strange and planned to follow them. All three of them were wearing night clothes and carrying swords. At this moment, two people suddenly jumped up and blocked the three people's way. Feiyun took a closer look and saw that it was Duan Qing and his new wife Hongjun who were blocking the three of them.
It turned out that after Duan Qing and Hongjun went south, they first went to Xiangxi to pay homage to the Tuwang. Duan Qing read out the imperial edict of conferring the title of King Tu, and then asked the King in person to marry Hong Jun to him. The Earth King had this intention, so he naturally agreed. Duan Qing thanked him with great joy, and early the next morning, he took Hongjun to Nanzhao. The King of Nanzhao originally intended to have good relations with the Central Plains, and was very happy to learn about the situation.
After Duan Qing reported the situation, King Nanzhao happily agreed to their marriage without saying a word. A few days later, King Nanzhao held a grand wedding. Duan Qing and Hongjun got their wish and finally got married. After Duan Qing and his wife stayed in Nanzhao for a few days, they left Nanzhao and returned to the capital.
When Li Xian learned about it, he was naturally happy for them and immediately took the couple to meet Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian upgraded Hongjun's jade princess to a princess and appointed Duan Qing as the deputy commander of the guards, allowing them to stay in the palace. Because the two are highly skilled in martial arts, they can help each other at any time if something unexpected happens. Duan Qing and his wife were unable to resist the decree, so they had to temporarily live in the palace.
That night, Li and Duan Qing walked around the palace as usual, and happened to see someone flying past on the roof. Duan Qingxin must be a scumbag, so he showed up to block the way.
Duan Qing said coldly: "Who are you who dare to break into the palace at night?" The three people were stunned and immediately stopped.
A person on the left said: "Who are you and why are you blocking the way?"
Feiyun, who was following behind, was shocked to find that it was the voice of a young woman, as if he had heard it somewhere.
Hong Jun smiled slightly and said: "Sister, you know the rules of the world, and everyone who sees them has his share. You must have stolen a lot of gold and silver just now, do you want to share half of it with us?"
The person on the right said angrily: "You bitch, do you think we are some kind of burglars? We didn't steal any gold, silver or jewelry. You'd better get out of the way quickly and don't ask for trouble." The person who spoke turned out to be a woman.
Hong Jun continued to smile and said: "Sister, my little sister is timid, don't scare me. If I scare you, you can't afford to pay for it. What kind of treasure are you holding? Let me take a look, okay?"
The woman shouted sternly: "I think you are looking for death, look at the sword!" As she said that, she reached out with her hand, pulled out the sword from behind, and struck straight at Hong Jun. She hit her when she said she would, without any warning. The sword slashed away, the sword energy surged, and the martial arts was extremely strong.
