At the breakfast table, the master took the ring given by his husband and couldn't put it down. He kept laughing and said: "This is such a treasure! I never thought that a poor scholar like me could one day practice cultivation."

Li Hongxiu also kept playing with the ring her husband gave her, taking out and putting in the gold coins inside.

Then, with Mu Mu and Xiao Bai's expectant eyes, they resolutely took out three hundred gold coins and placed them on the table.

He said boldly: "I am happy today. Three little brats will give you a reward of one hundred each. Now you are satisfied!"

Mu Mu nodded vigorously, hugged her and kissed her, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mistress, Mistress, she is the most beautiful!"

Xiaobai followed and said, "Thank you, Master, for the reward." He quickly counted a hundred gold coins and put them away.

Finally, Xiao Qing also blessed Li Hongxiu and said, "Thank you, Sister Hongxiu."

Li Xiaoxue shouted from the side: "I want it too!"

Li Hongxiu was stunned for a moment, thinking that there was a little money man here, so he quickly took out a gold coin and washed it under the tea, then took out a silk scarf to wipe it clean, put it in Yao Xiaoxue's hand, and said with a smile: "This is just

You can play, but you can’t eat, you know?”

Li Xiaoxue nodded, pinched the gold coin tightly, hugged Li Hongxiu and kissed her. She said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, Master."

It made everyone laugh.

Li Hongxiu pointed to the master and said: "The ring is for you, but the gold coins inside are for my sister."

Ye Zhiqiu was stunned, and quickly grabbed the ring from his wife's hand. His mind sank, and he couldn't help being startled, and said: "Sister, where did you get so much money?"

Li Hongxiu said with a smile: "Sir, you just keep it."

Li Ye looked at her and nodded, indicating that he knew about it.

Ye Zhiqiu glared at Li Ye and said, "Are you hiding it from your mother now?"

Li Ye was startled and said, "I only found out about this last night, how could I hide it from you." After saying that, he touched Li Xiaoxue's head and said, "My sister will finish her breakfast later, and my brother will take you shopping."

Mu Mu screamed from the side: "Mu Mu and Xiaobai Xiaoqing are going too."

Zhong Zhiqiu smiled and said, "Eat slowly, and I'll let Agui put the carriage on for you later."

...

September 28, outside the border between the Eastern Territory and the Central Territory, Heishui Town.

In an inn.

Wu Yefeng, the oldest of the five tigers, looked at the third youngest Dong Rulong who was lying on the bed and said: "Third brother, we are in a terrible situation this time. The life and death of the eldest brother and the fourth brother are unknown. One of your hands is broken, and you will not be able to use the sword in the future. My

The realm actually dropped to the Golden Core realm."

Dong Rulong, who was lying on the bed, had stopped bleeding from the wound on his hand. He let out a long sigh and said, "Fortunately, fifth brother, your space ring is still there. Otherwise, even if I don't lose my life in Fengyun City, I will still have it."

Lost on the way to escape."

Ye Feng nodded and said: "I don't plan to go back to the imperial city. Not far ahead is the Tianshan Sword Sect. I want to find my cousin, and I will practice in the mountain gate from now on. Third brother, you go back to find the second young master.

Or do you want to go to Tianshan with me?"

Dong Rulong looked at his severed hand and said quietly: "I don't plan to go back either. If I go back like this, they will probably either use me as a scapegoat or kill someone to silence me."

"Then you go to Tianshan Mountain with me. At worst, I will find something to do with you in the sect. It is safer than being hunted down in the five realms."

"Okay! I will go up to Tianshan Mountain with you, and we two brothers will never be separated again." Dong Rulong nodded.

Ye Feng looked at him and asked unwillingly: "Third brother, do you want to return to Fengyun City for revenge in the future?"

"Revenge? Who should I seek revenge from? I went there with my eldest brother. The lantern in the courtyard had written: Put down the butcher knife. It was because we were unwilling and insisted on going forward to die." Dong Rulong shook his head and said.

Ye Feng sighed and said: "That's right. I felt weird when I first entered the temple. My fourth brother and I saw three lanterns with the words: There is no end to the sea of ​​suffering. When you turn around, you will find the shore. Put down the butcher knife. I felt bad at the time.

I told my fourth brother to retreat, but he refused to listen to my advice..."

Dong Rulong nodded and said: "So, they already know that we are going to take action, and have hung up lanterns to persuade us to leave. Everything is life!"

Ye Feng smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't expect that I practiced hard and finally reached the Nascent Soul Realm at the age of twenty-five. I thought I would be a master in the five realms, but I didn't expect that I would be lost in the Buddhist sect of Fengyun City."

"Brother, be satisfied. You only need to spend another four or five years to return to the realm. But my right hand is gone. In the future, even if I practice, I will have to practice my left hand." Dong Rulong said quietly.

After hearing this, Ye Feng smiled and said: "It's okay if you come here as soon as possible. From now on, third brother, you will follow me. My two brothers will wash their hands in the golden basin and never engage in any grievances in the world."

When Dong Rulong heard this, he laughed loudly, patted his chest and said: "The green mountains are still there, so why worry about the lack of firewood. You and I, brothers, are of the same mind. We will practice in Tianshan from now on, even if I am asked to guard the mountain gate."

...

September 29, noon, Sifang City, Dongxuan Territory.

In the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion, Dongfang Haotian looked at the five old men, Four Yinjiu, who were lying on the ground, with a gloomy look on his face.

General Xia Hu looked at him and asked carefully: "Sir, what should I do with this person?"

Dongfang Haotian scratched his scalp, thought for a long time, and said: "This Xia Changfeng from Fengyun City is really good at playing football. What can I do? Send him to the prison in the city, find a house for him to live in, and let the manager

Let the prison chief teach him how to sweep the floor. It's better than sending him to the Imperial City to be beheaded. It means you and I have gained some virtue."

Yin Jiu stared at Dongfang Haotian and shouted: "I want to eat candy, I want to eat candy." With his consciousness damaged, he had the mental capacity of a seven-year-old child at this time. Without the magic medicine, he would remain like this for the rest of his life.

Xia Hu waved his hand and asked the guards outside the door to take Yin Jiu to report to the prison.

"Sir, should we report to the Imperial City?"

Dongfang Haotian thought for a while and said: "Add Fengyun City's documents and our processing results, and write two documents, one for the Second Young Master in the Imperial City, and one for the Emperor."

Xia Hu nodded and said, "Which Fengyun City applied for the bounty?"

Dongfang Haotian frowned, waved his hand and said, "We will discuss everything after we wait for the outcome of the Central Region Imperial City." After saying that, he turned around and walked into his courtyard. At this time, he wanted to ask Li Mingzhu.

...

"Last time the Second Young Master's people came, did you take him to Fengyun City?" Dongfang Haotian said calmly, looking at Li Mingzhu sitting beside him.

Li Mingzhu's heart skipped a beat, wondering if something had happened? "Husband, I also accompanied him to Fengyun City for the sake of your future future."

Dongfang Haotian slammed the table and shouted: "I didn't even take sides, but you took the lead? Have you learned to make decisions for me?"

Li Mingzhu was startled, came in quickly, gently touched Dongfang Haotian's back, and said, "How can Mingzhu dare to make decisions for her husband?"

Dongfang Haotian pointed to the door and said, "Don't make any plans in front of me. I know what you are thinking. I didn't bother to care about you before, because it was all family matters."

"It's okay now. Two of the five tigers from the Central Territory died in Fengqu City, one was disabled, and two ran away. Do you want me to explain it to the superiors?"

Li Mingzhu was stunned when he heard this, and murmured: "I only stayed in Fengyun City for one day and then came back. How could so many things happen?"

Dongfang Haotian glared at her and said fiercely: "How long do you have to live to be sensible? Do you dare to get involved in royal affairs? Do you want me to die with you?"

Li Mingzhu was so frightened that she fell to her knees and murmured: "How could this happen? How could this happen?"

Dongfang Haotian glanced at her with disgust and said: "I hope you will stay at home and stop getting involved in the affairs of the Central Territory. Remember: I am only loyal to the Emperor!"

After saying that, he stood up, waved his sleeves, and walked out.

Li Mingzhu collapsed to the ground.

...

On September 30, Shenshi, I went to the study room in the imperial palace of Wanxiang City in the Central Region.

The emperor Xia Changfeng, who has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, is six feet tall and wears a slim yellow robe, stares at the two official documents on the desk, looking like an abyss, showing no anger or authority.

Kneeling on the ground was the second young master, Xia Yunjie.

The old eunuch Yan Wuxue came in with a cup of hot tea and placed it on the desk.

"Are you an idiot? Or are everyone in the world idiots?" Emperor Xia picked up the tea and said calmly.

When Xia Yunlong heard this, he quickly replied: "When the five of them came to seek refuge with me, I didn't know that they were criminals."

When the emperor heard this, he sneered and said, "Is it their own idea to go to Fengyun City in Dongxuan Territory twice to kill people?"

When Xia Yunlong heard this, he lay down and said, "Father, I don't have one..."

"If no one instructs them, will the Five Tigers go to Fengyun City to kill people?" Emperor Xia put the teacup on the table and patted the table.

The old eunuch Yan Wuxue took a look and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your health is important."

The emperor ignored it and continued: "Colluding with criminals, killing people, setting fires, forming gangs, that's all right!"

"Two of the five tigers are dead and one is crippled. The remaining two tigers are like frightened birds. Dongxuanyu City Lord's Mansion and Fengyun City are waiting for the imperial city's decree. Are you satisfied?"

Xia Yunjie lay on the ground and whispered back: "I don't dare."

The emperor looked at Xia Yunjie who was kneeling on the ground, his face darkened and then faded, and then fell silent again, and he was silent for a long time.

Then he looked at the old eunuch Yan Wuxue and said slowly: "From now on, all the retainers in the second prince's residence will be dismissed and banned from leaving the imperial city for three years. If there is any violation, they will be demoted to civilians."

When Xia Yunjie heard this, he collapsed on the ground and even forgot to beg for mercy.

The emperor looked at it, frowned, and said: "Go back, close your eyes and think about your past, and learn from your teacher how to be a good person."

Xia Yunjie stood up with a sad smile, turned around and left the study room.

"Your Majesty, are you punishing him too harshly? After all, the second prince is only a teenager?" the old eunuch said softly from the side.

"Child? When he was young, he learned how to recruit retainers to work for him and make friends with important officials in the court. What does he want to do?" The emperor pointed to the two official documents on the case and said: "For his own selfish interests, he actually sent people to commit murder. Do you know

I wonder who is in Fengyun City?"

The old eunuch was startled and said: "Could it be..."

"Besides that person, who else wants to stay in this remote town?"

The old eunuch was stunned and speechless for a long time.

The emperor glanced at him and said calmly: "I don't want to argue with him, otherwise how could Yunjie still stand here and talk to me? Send someone to keep an eye on him, and tell the people in his mansion who are in the world

Disband them all, leaving no one behind."

The old eunuch nodded.

"Dongxuan Territory and Fengyun City will each reward five thousand gold coins for settling this case." The emperor picked up the teacup and tapped the bookcase gently with one hand.

He smiled and said, "Counting the days, I haven't seen him arrive for many years. I have a hunch that he will come to see me soon."

When the old eunuch heard this, his face lit up with joy, and he stepped forward and said, "Doesn't that mean that the day when the Emperor is about to break the Xu is not far away?"

The emperor nodded and said with a smile: "It can be as short as five or six years, or at most ten years. I will ask my husband for detailed advice after he comes."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, you have finally achieved great success." The old eunuch said with joy on his face.

The emperor glanced at him and said with a faint smile: "You are not bad, you will be successful in at most ten years!"

The old eunuch nodded and said: "It's all thanks to the emperor's blessing that I always have an old slave today!"

The emperor put down the tea cup, stood up, closed the two official documents, and said: "When will this second son have the magnanimity of the boss? I will issue an order to the Eastern Region and Fengyun City tomorrow, and we will follow the memorial they proposed."

...

The next day, there were rumors in Vientiane City that the emperor had decreed that all the retainers in the second prince's house were dismissed, and the second prince was banned from the house and was not allowed to leave the city for three years.
