Upon hearing this name, Wu Zhongxian and Wu Changan both glanced at the imperial guards subconsciously.
Obviously, the Six-Fingered Piano Demon and the others had also heard about it.
The Six-Fingered Piano Demon is a well-known person in the world, and his strength is pretty good.
The Six-Fingered Piano Demon was once a member of the Demonic Cult, but later he quit the Demonic Cult due to some reasons, and even fought with the Demonic Cult.
Later, he didn't know where he went.
Some people rumored that he was dead, others said that he was executed as a traitor by the Demon Cult, and some said that he had defected to the imperial court...
There are all kinds of rumors.
But now it seems that some of the rumors are actually true.
Since the Six-fingered Piano Demon dared to come to the palace in broad daylight, it proved that he had something to do with the imperial court.
Naturally, Wu Changan didn't take this matter to heart and continued to drink and read poems.
This is an internal matter within the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even if someone recruits someone from the Demon Cult, it has nothing to do with him.
However, Wu Changan was quite surprised that the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty had the courage to subdue people from the Demon Cult.
Many ministers in the imperial court would not agree to subjugate people in the demon sect, especially those scholars...
"It seems that the storm behind the world is caused by this six-fingered piano demon." Wu Zhongxian probably understood in his heart.
To be more precise, Her Majesty the Empress was behind the instigation.
However, Wu Zhongxian could also understand the meaning of Her Majesty's move because he listened to the Poison Girl's account of what happened decades ago in the water prison.
Her Majesty the Empress stirred up chaos in the world not just to weaken the power of the ministers in the court.
It is also to prevent Jianghu warriors from gathering.
Because the lessons learned decades ago were too harsh.
Perhaps when Emperor Wu of Zhou was about to die, he might have given some unknown orders to Zhou Nanhuang.
Let Her Majesty the Empress disrupt the world and deny the warriors any hope of recovery.
All in all, these are Wu Zhongxian's reasoning.
Although it may not be true, it is inseparable.
Her Majesty the Empress greeted Wu Changan politely, asked Wu Zhongxian to take care of Wu Changan, and then got up and left because she was busy with official duties.
Wu Changan didn't mind, and even had some admiration for the Zhou emperor in his heart.
Emperor Zhou Ren respected him very much. Although he was arrogant, he was not stupid.
"Eunuch Wu, after today's banquet is over, could you please come to the inn where I live to have a talk? Wu has a friend who also likes poetry very much and traveled thousands of miles to come to Dazhou."
"General Wu, don't be so polite."
Wu Zhongxian waved his hands quickly. He was not a person who pushed beyond the limits. Wu Changan's name for him was too much.
Using you as an honorific title is indeed a bit embarrassing.
Wu Changan laughed: "Hahaha! Eunuch Wu is also a sweetheart! Okay! You're welcome to Wu."
"Well, after the banquet is over, I will go to the inn with General Wu."
"Okay! Come to Eunuch Wu, let's have a drink!"
“…”
………
at the same time.
In the Royal Garden.
In a deserted, remote courtyard.
Her Majesty the Empress was standing with her back to the old man, listening enigmatically to the old man's report on his work.
The world is in chaos.
The old man's mission was finally completed.
"Please, Your Majesty, let the old man live in seclusion."
The six-fingered piano demon lowered his head, did not look at His Majesty, and did not dare to say anything more, except for a word of request.
He didn't know if the emperor would keep his promise.
There is only a glimmer of hope.
He just wants to enjoy his old age.
"Go ahead."
After thinking for a long time, Her Majesty the Empress softly uttered two words.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The old man knelt down excitedly and kowtowed in thanks.
Her Majesty the Empress raised her hand gently and said nothing.
The old man left.
Left with a happy mood.
Walk out of the palace.
Get out of the capital.
Looking at the surrounding scenery of high mountains and flowing water, I felt inexplicably comfortable and could not help but murmur.
"A flashy dream for half a lifetime, and a song for the rest of my life."
"Perhaps, this is the best ending."
The Six-fingered Piano Demon was quite impressed.
Thinking about my previous life, I was very nervous. I had done both evil and good deeds.
After a flashy life, it is so difficult to find peace for the rest of my life.
Sad.
sigh.
If someone were to ask the Six-Fingered Piano Demon at this moment whether he regretted it, his answer would definitely be that he regretted it very much.
I regret not being able to be an ordinary person and live an ordinary life.
"Almost there."
The six-fingered piano demon looked at the bamboo forest ahead.
A bamboo house in a bamboo forest deep in the mountains.
This is the bamboo house that the Six-Fingered Piano Demon built more than ten years ago. It is a place where he has always wanted to live in seclusion.
There are high mountains and flowing water, far away from the world.
"Yes, almost there."
At this time, a cold voice suddenly came from the air.
The Six-Fingered Piano Demon's spirit was tense instantly.
"Who!"
He turned his head sharply.
The next moment, I saw a sword energy coming from all directions.
He didn't even have time to activate his internal power before he was directly killed by the sword energy.
His head rolled straight down, turned around several times underground, and finally stopped in the direction of the bamboo house, staring blankly at the simple bamboo house.
his home.
The old man's ricked body was still standing there, as if he hadn't reacted for a long time.
No one knew a murder had occurred here.
No one even knows.
Who could be so powerful that he could instantly kill the famous Six-fingered Piano Demon with one sword?
………
Inside the palace!
The banquet is over.
The negotiation did not go smoothly, nor did it fail.
Wu Changan said that he needed to ask the King of Wei for instructions, so he would have to wait a few days for a reply.
Wu Changan originally wanted to take Wu Zhongxian to the inn, but because Wu Zhongxian had other things to do, he could only agree to go in the evening.
Wu Changan then agreed and left.
It can be seen that Wu Changan is really interested in Wu Zhongxian.
After Wu Changan left.
In the Royal Garden.
Baihua Pavilion.
Her Majesty the Empress was looking at Wu Zhongxian, smiling and praising: "You did a good job this time."
Her Majesty the Empress is very satisfied with these two poems by Wu Zhongxian, and even more satisfied with his attitude.
He is not arrogant or arrogant like other scholars.
"Then, won't your Majesty give me some reward?" Wu Zhongxian suddenly asked.
Her Majesty the Empress was stunned for a moment.
Just now you praised Wu Zhongxian for being sensible, now you need to reward him?
Her Majesty the Empress didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she took back what she just said.
However, Wu Zhongxian should indeed be given some rewards.
After thinking for a while, Her Majesty the Empress said: "I will give you ten thousand taels of gold and some gold, silver and jewelry."
Most of the things the emperor could reward were money.
Money is indeed one of the most valuable things in this world.
With money, you can buy anything.
But for Wu Zhongxian, money is not that important.
He is not short of money.
"Your Majesty, I would like some other rewards."
Wu Zhongxian said, approaching Her Majesty the Empress unobtrusively.
"Hmm? What do you want?"
Her Majesty the Empress frowned slightly.
Wu Zhongxian is indeed a bit over the top.
Originally she praised Wu Zhongxian for being sensible!!
This is also called being sensible??
Not only do you want rewards, but you also don’t need money.
