A rare high-level meeting in Taoist Palace ended unhappy.
No one dared to investigate how Li Chungang's actions would affect the Tao realm.
After all, the two factions who had their hair shaved off are a lesson learned from the past.
At the same time, these elders also recalled the most arrogant side of the old sword god when he was just starting out.
They were sure that if someone tried to stop the other party, they would be pushed to the ground and rubbed on the spot. Their face would be completely lost by then, and Xiaoyaozi had already made a final decision on the matter.
As for the story Li Chungang told about the Yuan family in Quxi, except for a few people, the other elders probably didn't take it very seriously.
So what if the Yuelinghwa clan took refuge in the ghost market!
So what if Gui Shi can kill a strong Dharma Realm person on the spot!
What does the young man nicknamed the Knife in the Wind, who can catch Li Chungang's two-sleeved green dragon, have to do with them!
And another chain of merit has been broken... Well, this is a good thing for the elders. The increase in the concentration of vitality is conducive to practice, and every time a vitality storm is experienced, it will give birth to a new generation in all parts of Kyushu.
Some rare and exotic herbs.
This is probably the only thing that matters to them.
At the same time, the center of power in Kyushu is the tall imperial city.
In the main hall, which is usually used for discussions, many powerful ministers and generals once again gathered after the morning dynasty of the day.
As the Duke of Dongchang, Cao Zhengchun humbly waited beside the dragon chair on the nine steps. In fact, he knew very well that this position should not belong to him. Deep in the palace, there was someone stronger than him.
A young eunuch who was also trusted by Emperor Xuan.
It's just that this person has always been like a legend, and only a few ministers who truly have the trust of Emperor Xuan are qualified to meet him.
In fact, Cao Zhengchun originally regarded this rumor as a non-existent ghost story, such as the woman screaming in the well, the ghost of a child stealing food in the imperial kitchen in the middle of the night, and the white cat demon who likes to patrol the palace...
Ever since he entered the ablution room at the age of seven and cut off the roots of right and wrong, he has grown up listening to these stories.
But because of the appearance of the fatal body, and because of some even weirder fairy tales widely spread by those weirder alien visitors, he started to investigate seriously and finally determined that such a person might really exist.
A monster who can achieve immortality by sucking the luck of the dynasty and truly live as long as his country.
After confirming this, he found that he felt very unfamiliar with the Daxuan Dynasty, which he had stayed in for decades. The worship hall, which he thought represented the most powerful military organization, did not seem to be as powerful as the majestic and mysterious palace.
Because no one knows how many monsters are hidden inside.
For example, the Hidden Dragon Hall just announced by Emperor Xuan, these beings whose privileges are enough to surpass all the ministers and princes present, appear simply inexplicably.
"His Majesty!"
At this moment, an old minister raised objections, but as soon as he said two words, he was directly interrupted by Emperor Xuan who was sitting on the dragon throne.
"My decision has been made and I have no further advice."
The courtiers below looked eagerly at the six elders standing in the front, as well as the Prime Minister Li Taike who had begun to close his eyes to rest for no reason.
The result was a moment of silence.
The strange silence did not last long before a guard entered the hall and said:
"Your Majesty, Lu Shen has something to report."
"are you back......"
In addition to announcing the establishment of the Hidden Dragon Hall just now, Emperor Xuan also informed everyone present that Lu Xiaofeng, one of the Four Great Divine Catchers, and a Hidden Dragon Envoy had been dispatched to the Yuan Clan to warn King Zhennan.
But as soon as he finished speaking, a chain of merit collapsed in the sky, which could explain many problems.
At least in this hall, these powerful officials and generals understand what this means.
Even because of this sudden change, everyone did not focus on the problem of Yinlong Hall for a while, and began to direct artillery fire at Zhennan King Qin Fan, who had never set foot in the imperial city.
At the same time, the faction run by Qin Fan during this period, as well as many allies who had conflicts of interest with him, promptly stood up to refute. After a heated exchange of words, the two sides found that they could only fight 50-50, so they temporarily shelved the topic.
.
Then the veteran minister directed the bombardment at Yinlongtang, which had greater privileges than the sky.
In fact, everyone in the court knows one thing. The current Daxuan Dynasty is not ready to completely fall out with Wangyou Ghost City. As long as the Wuwei Palace in the north is still there and those barbarians have not withdrawn from Kyushu, they will
It is impossible to attack this force, which is the only one that openly submits to the imperial court.
The response plan of the Daxuan Dynasty has always been very clear, which is to blunt the sword of the ghost market before taking action.
So what if the other party's power in the south is getting bigger and bigger. The feud with Buddha Land is about to break out completely, and there is also the Xuan Gorge Territory, a lonely land occupied by Dao Territory. If Ghost City wants to take it, he must fight with it.
Head-to-head confrontation in Dao domain.
This left and right move is enough to completely suppress Guishi, and the Daxuan Dynasty can also use Guishi's hand to teach this Buddha a severe lesson.
The most important thing is that when the snipe and the clam compete, the fisherman gains.
There is no possibility for the three parties to join forces, and the Daxuan Dynasty has been secretly instigating. Sooner or later, they will wait for the opportunity to destroy all three of them and suppress them single-handedly.
When it comes to foundation, no one in this world of mountains and seas can match the Daxuan Dynasty, and the same goes for endurance.
Therefore, as long as Gui Shi was not openly trying to raise a flag of rebellion, even if there were many ministers clamoring to punish King Zhennan just now, their real intention was not to completely force Qin Fan to a dead end.
It was just shouting slogans. They had known that someone would jump out to support Qin Fan. It was nothing more than putting on a show.
Including Lu Xiaofeng's subsequent response, they all thought of countermeasures in a tacit understanding.
However, what the ministers did not expect was that they heard another unexpected truth from Lu Xiaofeng.
"So that's it! It's Hua Yao Yue's wolfish ambition! Your Majesty, I think the six gates should put him on a wanted list, and he must avenge the dead Hidden Dragon User!"
"I second the motion! This traitor even tried to use the life of the Hidden Dragon Envoy to provoke Daxuan and King Zhennan. She should be cut into pieces with a thousand swords!"
"It's ridiculous to say that that woman used such a crude strategy, but she still thinks that we can be fooled. Does she really think that the heroes and talents in my court are just idiots?"
"I think we should give more comfort to the King of Zhennan now, so as to prevent him from mistakenly thinking that we have fallen into the trap of the traitor!"
Lu Xiaofeng was stunned.
Along the way, he took the ghost city's airship directly to the border with Zhongxuan Prefecture, and used his Qinggong to rush back to the imperial city before nightfall that day.
His speed was very fast, but his thinking became increasingly chaotic.
Because he had been thinking about what Qin Fan said and the tips given by Hua Manlou, whether he should reveal the so-called truth.
Finally he bowed his head.
Perhaps if it were the original owner of the destiny who always believed in his friends and believed that there was still justice and justice in the world, he would resolutely insist on making the truth known to the public. But it is through the memory of the original owner that he knows how much difficulty is behind that persistence.
The pain of words.
Lu Xiaofeng felt that she should be more diplomatic.
He wants to live.
At least it shouldn't be so worthless.
So, he repeated the facts Qin Fan taught him.
That is, Hua Yaoyue intended to assassinate Qin Fan, but the Yuelinghua family gave up the warning in advance. As a result, after her attempt failed, she happened to see the Hidden Dragon Envoy who came to visit, so she became bold and decisively killed him.
He was killed and tried to sow discord between Gui Shi and Da Xuan.
In the end, under the interception of many masters in the ghost market and an unknown sword god who was passing by, the Lord of Yaoyue Palace escaped even though he was seriously injured.
For this reason, King Zhennan expressed his deep apology and immediately launched a comprehensive wanted order against Hua Yaoyue.
At first glance, there seems to be no problem with the logic.
But if you really analyze it carefully, there are loopholes everywhere.
Lu Xiaofeng felt that even the butcher at the butcher stall he passed by just now felt that this sentence was full of flaws.
But it happened that in this hall, all the powerful officials who were about to reach the point of maximizing their skills in political struggle believed it.
Something is wrong with me! Or something is wrong with the world!
Lu Xiaofeng fell into deep confusion.
At this moment, Emperor Xuan suddenly said: "Did King Zhennan see my imperial edict?"
Lu Xiaofeng suddenly woke up and said quickly:
"No, when Hua Yaoyue attacked and killed the Hidden Dragon user, his remaining energy also destroyed the imperial edict!"
"Well, you can't blame King Zhennan. After all, he didn't see the content of the imperial edict." Emperor Xuan thought deeply and then came to a conclusion that made Lu Xiaofeng feel dumbfounded.
He had met His Majesty in private, and knew that His Majesty was as wise as the abyss and as deep as the sea, and that his mind was deep enough to rival that of the King of Zhennan. However, why did he suddenly become wise enough to be convinced by such a small reason?
.
Can you just pretend that nothing happened if you haven't seen the imperial edict?
From the standpoint of the Daxuan Dynasty, everyone should know that cutting off those chains of merit would represent betrayal of the imperial court.
But now the most serious problems have been directly exposed, and minor troubles have been filled up with random excuses.
So what was the purpose of his worry along the way?
Immediately, the ministers seconded the proposal, and a few of the rare young people expressed their objections and hoped that Liumen would conduct a strict investigation and immediately denied the involvement of the person involved, Lu Xiaofeng.
Then someone proposed to let Nie Yunhua, the bloody-robed god catcher, go find out the truth.
Lu Xiaofeng was no longer dumbfounded now. He found that the political environment in the court was no longer something that a novice like him could participate in.
Because the level gap between the two parties was too large, he, a novice, looked at the performance of a group of veterans and felt that they were all stupid. In fact, the great wisdom contained in them meant that he could only make such a stupid suggestion to the other party.
Only later can we get a glimpse.
After all, the entire imperial city now knows that the Blood-clothed Divine Catcher has begun to side with the King of Zhennan without any concealment since he returned from his mission to the ghost market with Zhuge Zhengga, the former Chief Catcher of the Six Gates.
And now let a die-hard member of the Zhennan King's faction investigate the truth of the suspicious cases that occurred in the territory of the Zhennan King. This is more unnecessary than a meat bun beating a dog.
This also made Lu Xiaofeng understand that he couldn't understand it just because he was a loser, not because the powerful officials and generals in the court were all fools.
Then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time felt a chill coming to his heart.
if......
If he had not listened to Hua Manlou's final advice and instead insisted on telling the truth in this court, what outcome would he have faced?
Lu Xiaofeng didn't dare to think about it anymore. He just wanted to get over this situation quickly.
However, just as the voices in the court reached an agreement, a burly figure rushed in from outside the hall!
It was a middle-aged man who did not hide his anger. After scanning the entire audience with his sharp eyes like a falcon, he actually suppressed the questions that the ministers blurted out!
"Your Majesty, I need an explanation."
Emperor Xuan did not speak, but Li Taike, who had been closing his eyes to rest his mind before, asked solemnly:
"Who is your Excellency?"
"Master of Hidden Dragon Hall, Shi Xiu."
Shixiu still gave the prime minister a lot of respect, and even when he was extremely angry, he did not directly leave him alone.
However, without Emperor Xuan's words, Li Taike had fulfilled his duties as prime minister.
"Although your Excellency is the master of the Hidden Dragon Hall, you cannot be arrogant because of favors. Were you just questioning His Majesty!"
"I need to give my dead brother an explanation." Shi Xiu's expression was cold and his voice was even colder.
Moreover, there was an aura of calmness and power around him, which pressed directly towards the surroundings. However, the moment the energy was forced out of the body, it was suppressed by an invisible force.
Shi Xiu's face looked a little ugly, and then he looked solemnly at the figure sitting on the dragon chair.
But his coercion just appeared for a moment, and only the masters whose strength reached the celestial realm or above noticed it. Also in the next moment, he was filled with death's finger strength, surging palm power, fiery fist intention, and a huge force that could
The literary energy that filled the entire hall all attacked Shi Xiu!
For a moment, the atmosphere became tense, but as a voice came out, everything seemed like a mirror, as if it was just an illusion.
"I will give you an explanation."
The ministers were still standing neatly on the left and right sides under the dragon chair. The attack that suddenly attacked the center of Shi Xiu just now seemed as if it had never happened at all!
But Lu Xiaofeng, who was very close to Shi Xiu, was extremely sure that she had read correctly just now, and they almost started fighting!
Too dangerous!
He never thought that the group of courtiers in the hall who seemed to only know how to talk could be so strong. As one of the four great hunters, he felt that no one could beat them.
At the same time, he also clearly noticed that a drop of sweat streaked across the cheek of the Hidden Dragon Hall Master.
Tick tock.
The sound was so subtle that it was almost inaudible. When it sounded, Emperor Xuan had already waved his hand to reject everyone.
Including Lu Xiaofeng.
The only difference was that he was supervised by Nie Yunhua, the bloody-robed god who had just proposed to investigate the truth of the matter.
Is it considered a pass now?
No, Lu Xiaofeng knew that she had just stepped into danger.
