Shangyang Palace.

Wu Zhao sat in the study, looking at the memorials, a little absent-minded.

In the past few days, she didn't know why, and she always felt anxious.

It seemed that something big was about to happen, but she couldn't tell what would happen.

This feeling made her feel uncomfortable and irritable.

She hasn't had this feeling for a long time.

"Maybe Yin Yuan will know something."

Thinking of this, Wu Zhao said to Shangguan Wan'er, who was standing beside him, "Go and invite the Yinyuan Association envoy to come."

Shangguan Wan'er took the order and left, and soon brought the Yinyuan Society envoy to Wu Zhao.

Wu Zhao looked at the Yinyuan Society envoy and asked, "Have you ever happened in the world recently that is unfavorable to me?"

The envoy of Yinyuanhui shook his head and said, "Empress Dowager, I can't answer this question."

Wu Zhao frowned and asked in confusion: "Why can't you answer?"

The Invisible Yuanhui Messenger replied: "We can only answer specific questions."

Wu Zhao nodded slightly and asked, "Where is Lu Yan now?"

The envoy of Yinyuan Society replied: "No one in the world knows his whereabouts at present, but judging from his failure to show up, he should be hiding near Shaolin Temple."

Wu Zhao was a little puzzled and asked, "Since he has taken the Evil Emperor's relics, why don't he stay away from Shaolin Temple as soon as possible without the others knowing it, but continue to hide near Shaolin Temple?"

The Invisible Yuanhui envoy shook his head and said, "There is no answer to this question yet, but we are already trying our best to investigate it. I believe there will be a result soon."

Wu Zhao continued to ask, "How long will it take if Lu Yan wants to devour the Yuanling in the Evil Emperor's relics?"

The envoy of the Yinyuan Society replied: "From the fact that the Evil King Shi Zhixuan and the Shuanglong devoured the Yuanling, this devouring did not take long, maybe it would be a matter of a moment."

Wu Zhao thoughtful and whispered: "If Lu Yan had already obtained the Evil Emperor's relics, he would have swallowed the Yuanling in the Evil Emperor's relics and became a celestial being."

"If he becomes a celestial being, he can show up openly without hiding."

"When he did not show up, does it mean that he did not become a celestial being?"

"What is the reason why he did not become a celestial being?"

"Is it because I don't know how to swallow the essence of the Evil Emperor's relics, or because... they didn't seize the Evil Emperor's relics at all?"

Thinking of this, Wu Zhao suddenly asked the envoy of Yinyuan Society: "Who saw Lu Yan take away the relics of the Evil Emperor?"

The envoy of Yinyuan Society replied: "It is Xuan Zheng, the abbot of Shaolin Temple."

Wu Zhao asked again: "Did anyone else see it?"

The Invisible Yuanhui messenger shook his head and replied: "No."

At this time, Wu Zhao and the Yin Yuan Society envoy had already guessed a possibility that was extremely close to the facts.

That is, Lu Yan did not seize the relics of the Evil Emperor at all.

The evil emperor's relics are still in the Shaolin Temple.

The news they heard was all fake news released by Abbot Xuan Zheng!

The reason why Abbot Xuan Zheng released the fake news was because he wanted to hide the evil emperor's relics!

"Now there is only one person who truly knows where the Evil Emperor's relics is, and that is Xuan Zheng!"

While speaking, Wu Zhao had already stood up.

She wants to go to Shaolin Temple in person and meet Xuan Zheng!

...

Zhao Prince's Mansion.

Li Yuanba is practicing martial arts.

King Li Yuanjia came in a hurry.

"Third brother! Third brother! Wu Zhao has left the city and is heading towards the East City Gate!"

"She must have gone to Shaolin Temple and wants to seize the relics of the Evil Emperor!"

When Li Yuanba heard Li Yuanjia's shouting, he put down the pair of golden hammers in his hand.

Li Yuanjia quickly came over and said to Li Yuanba: "Should we take the opportunity to follow us? If you let your third brother seize the relics of the Evil Emperor, then a god will appear in our Li family. Why not be afraid of Wu Zhao?"

Li Yuanba nodded slightly and said, "I have sent everyone out to find Lu Yan's whereabouts."

"But since Wu Zhao has set out to Shaolin, let's go to Shaolin too."

As he said that, Li Yuanba walked out the door with a golden hammer.

Li Yuanjia followed Li Yuanba and wanted to join in the fun at Shaolin Temple, but was stopped by Li Yuanba.

"The fight in Yangzhou should be about to begin, so you can stay in God and wait for the news."

"The disputes in the world are everywhere, and I can't protect you."

Li Yuanjia could only stop regretfully when he heard this.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a little regretful. When he was young, he only knew how to write paintings and write poetry. If he had known this, he would have learned martial arts.

Not long after Li Yuanba set off, Wu Zhao received the news.

She knew that once she set off, Li Yuanba would definitely go out too.

So she was not surprised by this.

She even wanted to use this trip to Shaolin Temple to eradicate Li Yuanba.

As long as Li Yuanba dies, the Li clan relatives will not be worried about it!

...

At dusk.

Wu Zhao's car slowly came to Shaolin Temple.

Before Wu Zhao arrived, the imperial guards had already cleared the road and drove away the nearby people from the rivers and lakes.

If you are facing other people, maybe these people in the world will be more arrogant.

But when facing Wu Zhao, if they don’t want to die, they can only be obedient.

When Wu Zhao's car arrived in front of the gate of Shaolin Temple, hundreds of people from the martial arts world gathered here.

Everyone was lined up on both sides, looking at Wu Zhao's car with extremely vigilant and fearful eyes.

If Wu Zhao also wanted to participate in the battle for the evil emperor's relics, I'm afraid that even if they united, they might not be Wu Zhao's opponent.

Abbot Xuan Zheng of Shaolin Temple had already heard about what Wu Zhao was about to come, so he stood in front of Shaolin Temple very early to wait.

When the car stopped, Shangguan Wan'er got off the carriage first and then lifted the door curtain for Wu Zhao.

Wu Zhao, wearing a scarf, walked out slowly.

Everyone around them stretched their necks and looked here, wanting to see with their own eyes what the legendary Martial Arts Queen looks like.

Wu Zhao was wearing a golden dress, elegant and elegant temperament, his face was covered by a facial scarf, and only his smooth forehead and a pair of fox-like eyes were exposed outside, which made people imagine.

When Xuan Zheng saw Wu Zhao, he stepped forward and bowed and said, "Amitabha, my monk Xuan Zheng, see the Empress Dowager."

Wu Zhao looked at Xuan Zheng and whispered: "Xi'er, you and I are a family, why bother to be so reserved?"

If we want to calculate the relationship, Xuan Zheng and Wu Zhao are indeed a family.

Moreover, Xuan Zheng should also call Wu Zhao the queen.

However, Xuan Zheng shook his head and said, "Li Xi has long been dead, and the one who lives in the world is the Shaolin monk Xuan Zheng."

Wu Zhao looked at Xuan Zheng with subtle eyes and asked, "In this way, you don't plan to admit this mother of this palace."

Xuan Zheng replied calmly: "Xuan Zheng has no mother."

Xuan Zheng became a monk since childhood and had already cut off the world. How could he admit that Wu Zhao was his mother?

Wu Zhao was no longer confused about the title and relationship. She raised her foot and walked towards Shaolin Temple and said, "Then please ask Master Xuanzheng to take me to the temple for a walk."

Faced with Wu Zhao's request, Xuan Zheng naturally had no way to refuse and could only keep up.

Seeing this, other people from the martial arts world wanted to take the opportunity to enter Shaolin Temple, but were stopped by the imperial guards.

"I also want to stroll in Shaolin Temple. I wonder if Master Xuanzheng can bring me with me again?"

Just as Xuan Zheng and Wu Zhao were about to enter the gate of Shaolin Temple.

Suddenly a sound of shocking the sky came.

Everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound coming, and saw a thin figure holding a pair of huge golden hammers, galloping on a horse.

When people and horses are combined together, they are like a whirlwind, causing pain in their eyes and should not be looked directly at!

Although everyone did not see the appearance of the visitor, they could only recognize from this pair of huge golden hammers that the visitor must be Li Yuanba, King Zhao of the Western Palace!

Just when everyone guessed Li Yuanba's identity, Li Yuanba suddenly flew up from the horse's back and landed in front of the gate of Shaolin Temple!

Judging from Li Yuanba's attitude, he had to step out of a big pit in front of the gate of Shaolin Temple.

But no one expected that Li Yuanba would take the weight easily, and when he landed, he was extremely steady and light, as agile as a butterfly.

Wu Zhao looked at Li Yuanba deeply and said, "I haven't seen each other for a few days, King Zhao's martial arts have improved a lot."

Li Yuanba smiled calmly and said, "It's not as good as the Queen Mother. He can steadily improve his cultivation level by doing everything he can do."

Everyone looked at Wu Zhao and Li Yuanba with guns and sticks in their words, and their faces were extremely subtle.

Now the eighteen princes led by the Li clan are rebelling everywhere.

As the leader of the Li clan, the relationship between Li Yuanba and Wu Zhao must be far from better.

If these two people were all aimed at the relics of the Evil Emperor, they would sooner or later fight.

Xuan Zheng glanced at Li Yuanba with a blank expression on his face, but he sighed in his heart.

To count it, he should call Li Yuanba Grandpa Third.

Fortunately, he became a monk early and had seen through the world.

Otherwise, today he would be the junior of Wu Zhao and Li Yuanba. If he was caught between them, he would be embarrassed to death.

"Since King Zhao also wants to visit Shaolin Temple, please come with me."

Without waiting for Li Yuanba to say anything, Xuan Zheng took the initiative to invite Li Yuanba to Shaolin Temple.

The people around the world all started to yell with dissatisfaction when they saw this.

"Abbot Xuan Zheng has always seen through the world, but he treats his relatives so well, and he is so kind to one and the other!"

"That's right, we also want to enter Shaolin Temple to take a walk, why doesn't the abbot refuse?"

"That's right, if today's incident is spread, I'm afraid Shaolin Temple will become a laughing stock!"

Everyone was yelling and talking, and soon the scene was messed up.

roar!

At this moment, a lion roar suddenly sounded, completely suppressing the shouts of everyone.

After everyone calmed down, Xuan Zheng said calmly: "Since you all want to enter Shaolin Temple, please queue up in an orderly manner and enter one by one."

"If someone deliberately makes trouble, don't blame me for being rude."

When everyone heard Xuan Zheng's words, they immediately rushed to the gate of Shaolin Temple and started queuing.

Xuan Zheng led Wu Zhao and Li Yuanba towards Shaolin Temple.

After entering Shaolin Temple, Wu Zhao said to Xuan Zheng: "These people can only shout a few times. If you ignore them, they have no choice."

Xuan Zheng shook his head gently and said, "It's better to be scattered than to be blocked. Since everyone wants to enter Shaolin Temple to take a look, let them in."

Li Yuanba asked, "Since that's the case, why didn't the abbot let them in before this?"

Xuan Zheng replied: "One time and another time."

Li Yuanba smiled and said, "I understand. The abbot actually does not want anyone to come and disturb the purity of Shaolin Temple."

"But some people rely on their power to make a bad start, so the abbot could only helplessly put everyone in."

Wu Zhao turned his head and glanced at Li Yuanba.

She could naturally hear that Li Yuanba was mocking her for abusing her power.

She snorted coldly and said, "It's just a hundred steps to laugh."

Xuan Zheng said to the two: "There are only two treasures in Shaolin Temple, one is the Talin and the other is the Sutra Pavilion."

"A few days ago, there was a change in Tallinn and it was inconvenient to watch it. It would be better for the two to follow me to read the scriptures at the Sutra Pavilion."

Wu Zhao nodded slightly and said, "The guest is as good as the master, everything depends on the abbot's arrangement."

Li Yuanba said, "I have no objection."

Under Xuan Zheng's leadership, Wu Zhao, Li Yuanba, Shangguan Wan'er and his group slowly walked towards the Sutra Pavilion.

At this time, Xie Zhuoyan, who was in the attic on the top floor of the Sutra Library, saw Xuan Zheng and the other four from the window, and immediately said to Lu Yan, who was sitting aside, "Here's here, someone is here!"

Lu Yan turned his head and looked out the window. When he saw the figures of Xuan Zheng and the other two, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"The person holding the golden hammer is Li Yuanba. These are Shangguan Wan'er and Wu Zhao? Why are they here?"

Lu Yan was a little surprised.

At this moment, he even doubted whether they were exposed, so Xuan Zheng specially invited Wu Zhao and Li Yuanba to besiege them.

However, looking at Wu Zhao and Li Yuanba carefully, it doesn't seem like they are here to fight.

At this time, the figures of Xuan Zheng and the other four were no longer visible at the window. Xie Zhuoyan whispered to Lu Yan: "What should we do now?"

Lu Yan whispered, "Just be here."

This time he said that he would be the sixth brother every time, and he secretly did something.

At this time, Xuan Zheng and the other four had already walked into the Sutra Pavilion. Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan calmed down and could clearly hear the sound of their conversation.

"A few days ago, someone broke into the pagoda forest of Shaolin Temple and forcibly took away the remains of the unknown senior."

"I originally thought he was Xie Yunliu, the former eldest disciple of Chunyang Palace, and later I found out that he was the storyteller Lu Yan."

"That accomplice must be his wife Xie Zhuoyan."

Wu Zhao looked at Xuan Zheng and asked, "Abbot, what Lu Yan snatched away that day was the evil emperor's relics?"

Xuan Zheng nodded slightly and said, "It's the Evil Emperor's relics."

Wu Zhao glanced at Xuan Zheng deeply and said, "Abbot, monks do not lie, don't tell lies."

Xuan Zheng said seriously: "Mencius does not lie, all the words of me are facts, and there is no lie."

In the attic, Lu Yan and Xie Zhuoyan both curled their lips.

These monks are the most lie.

When he was in the Song Dynasty, the abbot Xuanci also looked hypocritical.

But the result is that I have violated the great precepts.

There is no word these monks can believe in!

At this time, Li Yuanba asked again: "When the abbot got the evil emperor's relics, why didn't he use it himself?"

Xuan Zheng replied: "Prince Wuming said before his death that I hope I can keep the evil emperor's relics properly."

"Since I promised Senior Wuming that I would naturally have to keep the evil emperor's relics well. Unfortunately, I am incompetent and still let someone snatch the evil emperor's relics."

Wu Zhao looked at the bookshelf in the library and said, "Since Lu Yan seized the Evil Emperor's relics, he has never appeared again. He should be hiding near Shaolin Temple now."

"I don't know if the abbot is carefully searching for his whereabouts."

Xuan Zheng nodded and replied: "The whole temple is trying hard to search for Lu Yan's whereabouts, but unfortunately he has found nothing yet."

Wu Zhao suddenly said, "I guess, the evil emperor relics in Lu Yan's hand must be fake!"

Xuan Zheng asked calmly: "Why did the Empress Dowager say this?"

Wu Zhao smiled coldly and replied: "If Lu Yan had really obtained the Evil Emperor's relics, he should have devoured the Yuanling in the Evil Emperor's relics and became a celestial being. Why should he continue to hide!"

Li Yuanba looked at Wu Zhao in surprise.

At first he didn't think about this at all. When he heard Wu Zhao's words, he immediately felt that what Wu Zhao said made sense.

If Lu Yan had seized the relics of the real Evil Emperor, a few days have passed, and he is probably already a god, so why should he hide from him?

It is rare that Li Yuanba and Wu Zhao actually reached an agreement on something.

Xuan Zheng said calmly: "Amitabha, I also find it very strange about this."

Wu Zhao shook his head and said, "Xuanzheng, hand over the evil emperor's relics, otherwise I would have to turn the entire Shaolin Temple into the sky."

"You don't want Shaolin Temple's foundation to be destroyed for so many years."

Faced with Wu Zhao's threat, Xuan Zheng sighed lightly: "If the Empress Dowager really wants to do this, then I can only fight for this life to stop the Empress Dowager."

Seeing that Xuan Zheng was not in trouble, Wu Zhao couldn't help frowning.

Li Yuanba smiled coldly and said, "Abbot, do you hide the evil emperor's relics? Do you want to secretly devour the essence of it yourself?"

Xuan Zheng shook his head and replied: "I chant scriptures and worship Buddha every day, and I don't care much about the strength of martial arts. How could I embezzle the relics of the evil emperor?"

"If I had really embezzled the relics of the Evil Emperor, I should have entered the realm of heaven and man. At that time, I am afraid that the two donors would not dare to be so rude to me again."

Hearing Xuan Zheng's words, Wu Zhao frowned.

Seeing Xuan Zheng’s appearance doesn’t seem to be lying, could it be that Lu Yan snatched away the real Evil Emperor relics?

When Lu Yan heard Xuan Zheng's words, he couldn't help rolling his eyes.

What he grabbed was clearly a fake, and it was broken as soon as he pinched it, and there was nothing magical about it.

The real Evil Emperor relics are obviously still in Xuan Zheng's hands, and I don't know where Xuan Zheng hid them.

As a result, Xuan Zheng fainted Wu Zhao and Li Yuanba in just a few words.

He wanted to hide in the dark and be the sixth brother, and secretly make trouble.

As a result, Xuan Zheng, the sixth brother, is much more professional than him. He is so arrogant that he can do things openly and without making people suspicious. It's simply amazing!
