The guard rolled his eyes: "We are the guards in front of the door, but we just let those two people break into the treasure pavilion in plain sight. We have already derelict in our duties. The master of the pavilion is magnanimous and will not be held accountable. He is already kind to us.
Not shallow."
"Now there is a person who is not very strong. If I haven't been able to stop her and let her disturb the peace of the Pavilion Master, how can I follow the Pavilion Master again in the future?"
Hearing this, the other three people nodded empathetically, their eyes full of respect for their pavilion master...
In the sedan chair that was getting further away, Princess Caiyue changed her previous gentle attitude.
Liu frowned tightly and cursed in his heart: "Asshole! Asshole! Asshole! How dare four watchdogs refuse this princess's request? Humph, if it weren't for the fact that the master of Tianqi Pavilion is so rare, why would this princess condescend to this!
"
She calmed down her anger, quickly raised a corner of the sedan curtain, and asked the driver in a low voice: "Uncle Black, Uncle Bai, are you sure that the mysterious power that you felt in the teahouse before was really coming from a four-star?"
King Xuan?"
Xia Caiyue's current profound energy cultivation level is only that of a one-star profound practitioner. At most, she can only feel the profound energy power of a one-star profound practitioner who is one level higher than her, so she cannot detect the reality of the mysterious king at all.
This situation is just like the situation of the four gatekeepers of Tianqi Pavilion——
When Li Zongming and Dian Long forced their way into the pavilion from the roof, they only knew that the other party was very strong, but they did not know exactly how strong they were.
Heisha nodded without hesitation: "The burst of mysterious power is definitely a four-star Xuanwang. If not, how could Dian Long and Li Zongming get out of the way with the prince in disgrace?"
Bai Sha followed closely and said, "I really didn't expect such a big-name person to come to the capital of Great Xia. In a medium-sized shop, two Xuan Kings appeared, one of them is a four-star... Tsk, tsk, it's not easy."
Hearing this, Xia Caiyue narrowed her bright eyes: "He and Xia Tong broke up on bad terms. If Xia Yuanlong wants to repair the gap and recruit him, he will definitely have to spend a lot of effort. This is an opportunity for us!"
"What does the princess plan to do?" Heisha asked in a voice.
"Go back to West Lake to draw a boat first, and let the seven banks secretly controlled by my grandfather each come up with 10 million gold."
Xia Caiyue raised the corner of her mouth and murmured: "The opening of Tianqibao Pavilion is about to begin, and it's time to spend money..."
It seems that this green-haired and blue-eyed girl already has a clever plan in mind to recruit the master of Tianqi Pavilion.
If Princess Caiyue knew that the "great talent" she had condescended to show her kindness to and wanted to recruit was actually Chen Shen, her mortal enemy that she had always wanted to get rid of in her dreams, her expression would definitely be particularly wonderful...
At the same time, the Royal Palace, Qinzheng Hall.
It was the time of the morning court, and the King of Daxia was leaning lazily on the dragon chair, holding his chin with one hand.
Hundreds of civil and military officials were listed among His Highness, and they were conducting routine reports on various aspects one by one.
The great eunuch Li Zongming was sent out to run errands in the palace, and the eunuch beside the emperor was replaced by a boy in his early twenties.
His name is Xiao Guzi, and he is the adopted son Li Zongming adopted not long ago.
This man is smart and loyal, but due to his age limit, he has never seen much of the world. Therefore, facing the civil and military officials of your highness, and the emperor sitting firmly on the throne, Xiao Guzi is inevitably a little nervous...
Not long after, a small crack opened in the side door of Qinzheng Hall.
The King of Daxia seemed to be aware of this, and glanced in the direction of the narrow crack of the side door, just in time to see Li Zongming walking into the palace quietly.
"Huh? You're back so soon? Is the matter done or messed up?"
Xia Yuanlong's heart was like a cat's paw, and he really had no intention of going to court again, so he coughed lightly and interrupted the minister below who was making a routine report.
Then, he gently stroked his forehead with his right hand, placed his thumb and middle finger across both ends of his forehead, and rubbed his temples.
Seeing this action, Xiao Guzi subconsciously remembered what his adoptive father told him about the small actions of His Majesty today: "Once His Majesty touches his forehead with his hands and slowly kneads his temples with his fingers, it means that he has no intention of further discussion and wants to withdraw from the court.
Already."
As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Guzi hurriedly said in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty, I feel that the holy body is not right. For the sake of the health of the dragon body, if you have anything to do, please report it to the Shangshu Hall."
After saying that, the young eunuch hurriedly bowed in front of Xia Yuanlong, as if waiting for his next instruction.
Xia Yuanlong thought to himself: "Well, this little eunuch has not insulted his foster father's name, but he still has some sharp eyesight."
Then he stood up slowly: "That's it for today."
After saying that, he took a step and left. Xiao Guzi shouted urgently: "Retreat from the court!"
"Long live my emperor, long live long live..."
The ministers came out of the palace and started talking a lot: "Have you heard? There was a lot of rumors about the Tianqibao Pavilion two days ago. Before dawn today, there was news of the mysterious power of a mysterious king who broke through the barrier."
"That's not all! On my way to the court, I also felt the pressure of three other Xuan Kings from the direction of Tianqibao Pavilion. One of them was a four-star Xuan King, a two-star Xuan King, and a one-star Xuan King..."
"I noticed it too. Speaking of which, after the pressure of the Xuanwang Four Stars was revealed, the pressure of the other two Xuanwangs immediately weakened. Could it be that they are in a hostile relationship?"
"This is unknown. But I always feel that His Majesty's early departure from the court today must be related to the Qibao Pavilion."
"As far as I know, Tianqibao Pavilion officially opened at noon today, and it is said to be proficient in elixir, talisman, food, and military skills. I will also join in the fun by then."
"Well, regardless of whether the others are true or false, it's worth this trip just to save the face of the four-star Xuan King."
"That's exactly what I meant!"
…
The prince never dreamed that his stupid act of provoking the master of Tianqi Pavilion would actually help him unintentionally, causing a "free advertisement" to cause a sensation in the imperial capital in an instant.
These civil and military officials who can enter the palace every day are all standing at the top of the pyramid in the circle of powerful people!
Nowadays, more than half of the civil servants and military generals plan to visit Tianqibao Pavilion at noon today. This level of guest size is definitely unprecedented...
Imperial Palace, Yangxin Hall.
Xia Yuanlong sat high up and listened to the report of the great eunuch Li Zongming.
Although Dianlong was not good at words, he could still say a few words when the King of Daxia asked him, and every sentence was true and he did not add any extravagance or jealousy.
After listening to the content of "The prince was rampant, went into debauchery, and was furiously chopped off his right hand by the master of Tianqi Pavilion", Xia Yuanlong's thick brows had already been twisted into a Sichuan character.
He suppressed his anger and asked the two people in front of him some information about the inside of Tianqibao Pavilion.
As Chen Shen expected, Li Zongming revealed without reservation the high-grade mysterious weapons, mysterious talismans, mysterious pills on the table, as well as the high-grade mysterious food that fell to the ground.
The King of Daxia looked uncertain for a while, as if he was considering: How to choose between revenge for his son and prosperity for the country...
