Chapter 671 Powerless

Cao Jingyuan looked at Cao Jingchun: "Brother Wang, what's going on?"

Cao Jingchun sneered: "He is a meritorious official who was released from the outside world. He returned to the palace, but... he was taken advantage of!"

The internal servants were sent out to supervise local officials and act as the emperor's eyes and ears.

If they have served a certain period of time in the local area or have made great achievements, they will be recalled to the palace and promoted in the inner court.

The stage of the chamberlain is in the inner court, not outside.

Although traveling abroad allows you to see different scenery and people, experience more worldly things, and see more worldly situations, it hinders your promotion and excludes you from the center of power.

At the local level, the power of the chamberlain was reduced to the minimum. Even if no one bullied him, his words would be of no use.

This is to prevent the internal servants from relying on the imperial power to do evil.

Their function is only the eyes and ears of the emperor and the inner court. They only have the power to submit reports but not the power to make decisions.

Even if the power is reduced to this extent, it has a sufficient deterrent effect.

If an accident occurs to the chamberlain, the entire Taoist governor will be evacuated. Therefore, the chamberlain is extremely well protected and there is almost no accident.

What's more, once someone dies unexpectedly, it will be a provocation to the entire inner court and the imperial power, and the murderer will never be spared.

As an emperor, Cao Jingyuan was too lazy to bother with such trivial matters as his servants were promoted to the imperial court.

As the commander of the palace guards, Cao Jingchun did not care if the servants returned to the inner court, but those who entered the palace had to go there in person.

He had an excellent memory, and as soon as he saw this portrait, he remembered it.

Cao Jingyuan looked at Fakong curiously: "Master, can you see Concubine Hui's memory?"

Fakong said: "The short memory of a dozen breaths is left deep in the mind, and can be seen when the soul is transcended."

"That's it." Cao Jingyuan said with emotion: "As expected of a master, Concubine Hui can be saved by you, master, which is considered a great blessing among misfortunes."

The emptiness of the Dharma combines with the tithe.

This is not easy to say. No matter what, Concubine Xu is dead, and she is still said to be a great blessing. That is why the emperor dares to say this.

If I had to say it myself, Cao Jingchun's eyes could be cut like a knife.

Cao Jingchun's face was as gloomy as ice.

He originally thought it was a palace fight, but now it means that it is not that simple, and it is likely that external forces are involved.

This chamberlain came from outside, and he didn't know who he had come into contact with outside. He had ulterior motives and was trying to drive a wedge between himself and the emperor.

"Your Majesty, let's take this person down first and examine him carefully to see what he is!" Cao Jingchun said slowly.

"Of course we have to take it down." Cao Jingyuan said: "Brother Wang, you will handle this matter. Check it out carefully. What a vicious heart!"

"Yes." Cao Jingchun clasped his fists.

Cao Jingyuan looked at Fakong: "Master, if it is convenient, I have some questions about Buddhist scriptures and I would like to ask the master for help."

Fakong shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, this poor monk is really busy. He can only come here today. I hope your Majesty will forgive me."

"Oh——?" Cao Jingyuan was stunned.

Cao Jingchun looked at Fakong.

Fakong said: "I still have to go back to Shenjing, let's wait for another day."

"...That's fine." Cao Jingyuan nodded: "I have admired the master for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to ask for advice."

Dharma Konghe Tithe: "That poor monk will say goodbye for now."

Cao Jingyuan watched Fakong and Ning Zhenzhen leave. It wasn't until they completely disappeared that he turned to look at Cao Jingchun.

Cao Jingchun said: "Brother Emperor, it's better to stay away from Master Fakong."

"oh--?"

Cao Jingchun said in a deep voice: "He possesses magical powers, especially clairvoyance and destiny, and can see the past and the future."

Even when he met Fa Kong, he was always on guard.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Cao Jingyuan said with a smile: "You can see what my future will look like and what big things will happen in the future."

Cao Jingchun said: "There are some things that should not be known to outsiders. After all, he is from Dayong, not from Dayong."

"That's true." Cao Jingyuan said: "Brother Wang, do you think we can find a way to poach him and become our Dayong man?"

Cao Jingchun shook his head: "He is a disciple of Daxueshan Jingang Temple. His roots are in Daqian. How could he come to our Dayong."

"That's not necessarily the case." Cao Jingyuan said: "Even if we go to Dayong and Daqian, there is nothing we can do, right? Is it possible to deal with the Vajra Temple directly? Wouldn't that offend the divine monk Fakong?"

"At that time, Da Qian won't be afraid of offending him." Cao Jingchun said.

Cao Jingyuan shook his head: "He can build temples on both sides, both there and here."

"It's better to be careful with him," Cao Jingchun said.

Cao Jingyuan smiled and said: "Well, since you, brother Wang, advise to be careful with him, then listen to brother Wang and catch the murderer of Concubine Hui as soon as possible. I really..."

His face darkened.

Cao Jingchun said: "Brother, don't worry, I will never let him go!"

He waved, and a tall and burly middle-aged chamberlain approached: "Your Majesty."

"I think this person's name is Gu Sanquan. Not long after he returned to the palace, you went to capture him and don't let anyone get close to him."

"Yes." The middle-aged servant clasped his fists in response, turned around and strode away. The ground seemed to be shaking with every step he took.

Cao Jingyuan watched him leave and nodded with relief: "Old Xiong is getting stronger and stronger."

"His giant spirit magic skill is indeed unique." Cao Jingchun said: "He is born to practice this magic skill."

"With him here, I really feel at ease." Cao Jingyuan said with a smile: "With him watching over me, I feel much more peaceful when I sleep at night."

Cao Jingchun said: "He is doing things safely and I can rest assured."

——

Half an hour later, in the imperial garden, Cao Jingchun and Cao Jingyuan were playing chess. Xiong Jin, who was as tall and strong as a bear, strode in, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Has anyone been caught?"

"...Run away." Xiong Jin blushed and gritted his teeth and said, "It's a step too late. He probably ran away not long ago."

"Didn't chase?"

"He is proficient in the art of tracking and leaves no traces." Xiong Jin looked ashamed: "The tributes from the inner court cannot catch up with him."

"So, you just killed Concubine Hui and then escaped?" Cao Jingchun said lightly: "Really?"

"I am incompetent!" Xiong Jin lowered his head.

Cao Jingyuan's face didn't look good either, and he stared at Xiong Jin coldly.

Xiong Jin lowered his head and was speechless.

Cao Jingyuan shook his head, there was nothing he could do.

Xiong Jin was ordered to go there to catch someone, so he couldn't be blamed for being a step late. He could only be blamed for being late in inviting Master Fakong.

It would have been different if Master Fakong had been invited here earlier.

"What should we do, brother Wang?" Cao Jingyuan put down the chess pieces and said helplessly: "I can't catch up."

Cao Jingchun's face was gloomy and he said slowly: "Brother Emperor, I will go there myself."

"Brother Wang..."

"There are a few people in my house who are proficient in tracking. Let's see if we can do it."

"If that doesn't work either..."

"...Then go find Monk Fakong." Cao Jingchun said in a deep voice.

No matter how proficient Gu Sanquan is in the art of tracking, he can't stop Fakong's magical power.

"Okay." Cao Jingyuan said, "We must not let him escape. If we don't catch him, I don't know how many people will be wronged."

In order to catch the murderer, the harem has arrested many people. Now it seems that it was all a misunderstanding and the wrong person was arrested.

But if Divine Monk Fakong hadn't painted this portrait, I'm afraid those captured immortals would have had to shed a layer of their skin, and many would have even died unjustly.

Thinking about it made him angry.

This murderer is too vicious.

As for the deceased Concubine Hui, he was not too sad.

He was good to Cao Jingchun because of brotherly love.

But he was not that fond of Concubine Hui. He just gave in to Cao Jingchun for three points.

It's a pity that Concubine Hui didn't know how to behave. She was reprimanded several times by Cao Jingchun, but she still didn't change. She was arrogant and ran rampant in the palace.

After doing this for a long time, he became a little unhappy and a little bored.

But for Cao Jingchun's sake, he couldn't be too harsh, so he could only be a little cold, but unfortunately it was useless.

Her nature is like this and there is no way to change it.

Cao Jingyuan was completely heartbroken and became cold.

Therefore, he was not too sad about Concubine Hui's death, just pretending to do so.

What really makes him angry is that some people dare to kill people in the harem and dare to kill their own concubines.

This is a great humiliation to myself.

As an emperor, he can't protect his own woman. How does it feel to be an emperor?

In such anger, he resorted to ruthless measures, arresting all the suspects in the harem and trying them one by one. If you don't believe it, you won't be able to find out.

Anyway, no one broke into the harem, so it must be them. The murderer is hidden in it, so he will definitely find it.

I never expected that it was an outsider who did it.

He already understood that things were not that simple, and he was deliberately trying to stir up feelings between himself and his brother Wang.

Let there be a rift between brothers.

It's a pity that these people don't know their relationship with Brother Wang, how can outsiders destroy it?

——

Fa Kong stood in an elegant courtyard with his hands behind his hands.

This elegant courtyard is located in the Jade Butterfly Sect. It is the best courtyard in the Jade Butterfly Sect and is prepared for the most distinguished guests.

Fakong put his hands behind his hands, his eyes glowed slightly with golden light, and he saw the situation in the outer courtyard of Vajra Temple, and saw that Leng Feiqiong had arrived.

He shook his head, Leng Feiqiong was very positive.

He then looked at the King Kong Courtyard in Yunjing and found that the incense in the King Kong Courtyard was flourishing and the women were chanting sutras.

But they no longer cast Buddhist mantras, they just chanted sutras.

Even so, pilgrims still came in in an endless stream, queuing up in a long line, which looked no less than the scene in the outer courtyard of Vajra Temple.

Fakong smiled and shook his head.

This is because someone secretly promoted King Kong Temple and no longer suppressed King Kong Temple. The reputation of King Kong Temple has been raised.

Seeing as Meng Qinghe and the others have improved their cultivation, they are already able to cope with it.

Moreover, the credibility is still increasing continuously. Yunjing is known as the capital of all gods. One of its most obvious characteristics is that it is gullible and easy to believe.

Once their magical powers are revealed, they quickly strengthen their faith and provide themselves with an endless supply of confidence.

Ning Zhenzhen came in lightly, and with a touch of his face, his original face had changed, and he said with a smile: "The sect master is very happy."

The leader of the Jade Butterfly Sect wanted to kneel down and thank him.

She had already received news that the two concubines of the Jade Butterfly Sect and Sun Peiyu had been captured. They had almost no luck, but were rescued by Fakong.

Fakong smiled and said: "Thank you very much for your kindness, sect master. I will go back and come back tomorrow."

"Where is Prince Chun's Mansion...?"

"Tell me I'll come over tomorrow."

"Okay." Ning Zhenzhen said with a smile: "Suppress their arrogance?"

Fakong smiled.

Or Ning Zhen really understands herself.

Gu Sanquan, the man who attacked this time, was a powerful man with miraculous skills. There was nothing a martial arts master could do against him.

It can be concluded that he is the top master of Dayun.

The strange people and strangers in Dayun are indeed better.
