Because the Tianlang Dynasty invaded the border, all the states and counties of the Zhao Dynasty were heavily guarded, and all the soldiers in the barracks were on the verge of war, not to mention the Kyoto of the Zhao Dynasty.
Now if you want to enter the imperial city, you have to pass three rounds of inspections. Each level has more than a hundred soldiers, each wearing iron armor, holding a sharp knife in his hand, and full of murderous intent. And all the soldiers are Body Tempering Realm warriors. It is said that
Among the 8,000 imperial troops guarding the imperial city of Kyoto, even those with the lowest cultivation level must be at the Body Tempering Realm. The captain of ten must be at the Body Tempering Realm. The captain of fifty must be at the Breath Adjustment Realm.
If you are long, you must be in the Acupoint Opening Realm. As for the leader of the entire Yulin Army, it is said that he is a master warrior who has reached the Dzogchen Realm of Hardness and Softness. In addition, there are many masters such as the Royal Dragon Guard, and even masters above the Aperture Realm. Imperial City
Kyoto, protected by this force, can be said to be impregnable.
With Xingtian's current cultivation level, it is not difficult to enter the imperial city of Kyoto. In the Great Zhao Dynasty, Xingtian has been ranked among the top masters. His cultivation level is higher than that of Qu Chong in the past. On that day, Qu Chong could be alone in the imperial city.
You can come and go freely in the city of Kyoto, and naturally you can do the same in Xingtian.
Without any effort, Xing Tian entered the city.
It's just that the tense atmosphere at the city gate didn't seem to be transmitted to the people in the city. They were still doing what they were supposed to do. The tavern was overcrowded, the brothel was lively with singing and dancing, and there were flower boats rippling in a river in the city, and many children from aristocratic families,
The romantic and talented man was still drinking tea and discussing poetry, feeling very uncomfortable.
Perhaps the rise and fall of a dynasty is not as important to them as sharing a drink with a beautiful woman. While Xing Tian sighed, he also secretly thought that he was not like this.
For him, Linglong is the most important thing. Xingtian's purpose of coming to the imperial city of Kyoto this time is very clear, which is to find Linglong and take her away from the struggle for imperial power. Linglong must not become a victim. And this matter
Things are not difficult for Xingtian now. No matter how many masters there are in the imperial city, as long as they come and leave secretly, there will be no problem.
It was noon here, and Xing Tian was not in a hurry, but found an inn and stayed in it. Now Xing Tian is no longer the reckless boy he used to be. From a certain perspective, the Great Zhao Dynasty can be regarded as a top martial arts sect.
Even the Guashan sect does not have a deep foundation in a dynasty, and there must be countless masters among them. Acting rashly can only be a bad thing, so we must consider the long term.
Xingtian does divination every day, and he can only predict that Linglong is still in the imperial city of Kyoto. Other than that, the divination is as if covered with a layer of fog, making it unrealistic. Xingtian knows that this is because his cultivation level is not high enough.
for the sake of.
After settling down temporarily, Xing Tian called the waiters in the inn to chat and see how the current situation was.
It has to be said that people from all walks of life are the ones who know the most gossip. Let’s just say that this inn boy may not look like much, but he really knows a lot of things. Xing Tian just raised his head and the boy started talking non-stop.
"Sir, I see that you haven't been to Beijing for a long time. Now that such a big thing has happened and you don't even know about it, I have to talk to you!" Maybe it's Xing Tian's behavior.
Ignorance touched the innkeeper's sense of superiority that he knew everything, and his chat box was opened.
"This matter has to be mentioned a few years ago. You should know about the engagement between our seventh princess and King Zhou Lie of the Sirius Dynasty, right?" the innkeeper asked.
"I know, but I heard that the wedding date has been postponed!" Xing Tian said, pretending to be ignorant.
"Then do you know why you have to postpone it? Because the Seventh Princess secretly had an affair with a commoner. The princess and the commoner had a private life-long relationship, and... she also did that kind of thing, which really disgraced the royal family.
Face, this is a big deal. Originally, this was a scandal to be covered up, but in the end, I was afraid of what happened. For some reason, people from the Tianlang Dynasty found out about this matter, so King Zhou Lie was furious.
, just sent out troops, and the Wolf Dynasty has a large number of soldiers that day, and they may hit the imperial city at some time." The innkeeper kept talking, and continued: "I heard that Princess Linglong has been recalled to the imperial city by our emperor, and now
He is locked up in the palace and will be sent to the Tianlang Dynasty soon, but I don’t know if King Zhou Lie can calm down his anger!"
Next, the innkeeper told some gossip. When Xing Tian heard that they were basically compiled rumors, he didn't bother to listen. When the innkeeper left, Xingtian closed the door, let Xiaobai out, and discussed countermeasures together.
"Since your sweetheart is in the palace, let's explore the imperial city at night and rescue her. With our cultivation, it shouldn't be difficult to rescue someone. We will kill anyone who dares to stop her.
Who?" Xiaobai said with confidence. Obviously in her eyes, the imperial power is like dirt and not worth mentioning.
Xing Tian thought for a while, but said: "Xiao Bai, the imperial power of the dynasty is not as simple as you think. A dynasty can rule thousands of miles of territory and thousands of subjects, and it depends on its strength. If it didn't have strength, it would have been eliminated or slandered long ago.
The power has been seized. Just like this imperial city, if we forcefully break into it, we will definitely die. There are many martial arts sects under the jurisdiction of the Zhao Dynasty, which one is not powerful, but even the Guashan sect sometimes has to obey the imperial power of the dynasty.
The emperor gave an order and hundreds of heads fell to the ground. Is it child's play? And it concerns Linglong, so I can't be careless. And now that I know that Linglong is not in danger, the top priority is to figure out the current situation. Besides, if I don't
When I have to, I don't intend to have any conflict with the Zhao family's royal power. After all, Linglong is also one of them, so I have to keep calm. Later today, you will go with me to a place to see if you can find out.
Got the news."
The old friends Xing Tian mentioned were naturally Hua Shenggu Zhongyue, and even the town king Zhao Yi, especially the latter. Since he was Linglong's brother, he would naturally not see Linglong in danger.
Resting in the inn, until evening, Xing Tian called the innkeeper and asked about the location of the Zhen Wang Mansion before leaving the inn and disappearing into the streets.
The Zhenwang Mansion is located to the west of the Imperial City. It is a huge mansion with red walls and glazed tiles and a high gate courtyard, which fully reflects the style of the royal palace. At this moment, on both sides of the entrance of the palace, there are two guards with waist hexagram steel swords. The three in front of the palace gate
Within ten feet, no one is allowed to come near.
Xing Tian came from the corner of the street and looked at the three words "Zhen Wang's Mansion" hanging on the palace from a distance. He nodded, and then said to Xiao Bai in front of him: "Let's go in through the main entrance, and you and I will use magic together.
I seal their eyes and you seal their ears so that they can’t see us or hear us!”
Xiaobai nodded, and then he and Xingtian each used the secret method of sealing the orifice.
This secret method of sealing the orifice is a profound martial art that can only be practiced by warriors in the Tongqiao realm. It can attract the energy of heaven and earth and confuse other people's senses. Just like when Mr. Tingyu went to the outer sect to look for Xing Tian, a person walked in the disciple pavilion, but no one noticed it.
Same.
Naturally, Xingtian does not have the cultivation level of Mr. Tingyu, so he can only seal one orifice. Xiaobai can also seal one orifice, so the two of them can confuse the sight and hearing of the gatekeeper by working together.
A guard guarding the gate of the palace felt two figures approaching from a distance, but when he turned around and took a closer look, he found that there was no trace of those two people.
"Strange?" The guard looked around and saw nothing. Moreover, this was a wide alley and there was no way to hide people. He just thought he was hallucinating.
As for the other three people, they didn't feel anything at all. At this moment, Xing Tian and Xiao Bai walked into the door in a grand manner, one behind the other.
After entering the palace, Xing Tian and Xiao Bai walked all the way. The guards, slaves, and maids they met along the way were all confused by their sight and hearing, and they turned a blind eye to Xing Tian and Xiao Bai, who almost passed by each other.
At this moment, in a hall of the Prince's Mansion, a young man wearing a golden crown and fine clothes frowned, sitting on the main seat. The other chairs were also full of people, and among them there was a painting of the Holy Valley.
moon.
The room was very quiet, and everyone was silent. The young man with a frown slapped the table and stood up, saying: "Father, he has already issued a decree to give Linglong to King Zhou Lie.
The compensation is ten thousand taels of gold and silver. Those gold and silver are a trivial matter, but Linglong is my sister, and she was sent out this time. She will not get any status at all. I am afraid she is not even as good as a concubine. That Zhou Lie
Wang has a violent and moody personality. I can't just watch my sister jump into the pit of fire. You are all my close associates. Is there any way around this matter?"
Obviously, this young man is the town king Zhao Yi. When he asked, the other people looked embarrassed. One of them, a middle-aged man in official clothes, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is a matter of the Holy Spirit's decree."
, I’m afraid it will be difficult to have any room for maneuver..."
"If there is no way, then find a way!" Zhao Yi shouted.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty is probably unwilling to do this, but the Sirius Dynasty used Princess Linglong's disloyalty as an excuse to send out troops. Now at the border, we have lost three cities and two counties. Your Majesty did this just to give Zhou
Lie Wang gives an explanation in exchange for some buffering time!" Another aide also commented at this moment.
Zhao Yi sighed after hearing this, but said: "I don't know this truth, but this is tantamount to sacrificing Linglong. This is all the fault of that commoner named Xingtian. If it weren't for him, why would Linglong be like this? Yes, that week
Doesn’t King Lie want to give an explanation? Then hand over Xingtian, and if anyone comes, immediately send someone to Guashan to capture this person!"
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible!" At this time, Gu Zhongyue, who had been silent, stood up and said.
"Why not?" Zhao Yi frowned, his voice filled with murderous intent.
"Your Majesty, you were able to escape from danger a few days ago only because of the help of this person. Moreover, Xingtian is now Mr. Guashan Jiu, with a special status. He even won the first place in the Zhenwu Trial. He also caused a vision of the holy way. Maybe he will do it again.
In a few years, he will be able to achieve the path of a saint, and even the Taishang Wuji Palace wants to take him into its sect. My lord, can you think of catching that Xingtian to calm down the anger of King Zhou Lie? Don't you think of it?
The Holy One did not do this because he had too many scruples." (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
