334, it opens today, am I not late?

The personal guard commander of the Red Flame Army of the Imperial City, in charge of the 100,000 Red Flame Iron Guards stationed in the upper city.

Although Xiao Lingshan is not the top expert in the world, he is still a powerful figure in the Red Flame Army.

Among the leading generals of the Red Flame Army who are qualified to stay in the imperial city, who is not a close confidant of Marquis Wu?

Xiao Lingshan basically did not participate in matters in the imperial city.

But this person's identity and background, the three commanders of the Red Flame Army in the imperial city, are so powerful that even many great masters of Confucianism and Taoism are unwilling to offend him.

Why would such a general in the army come to the small Danyuan Pavilion?

Bao Mingcheng didn't know, and Bao Zhenyu was even more confused.

The official officer and the two deacons from the Medicine Department who had arrived a hundred feet away were also stunned.

The tall Xiao Lingshan strode forward, and several generals behind him stopped at the entrance of Danyuan Pavilion.

Shao Datian, who was originally helping Cuicui sell buns next door, hesitated, wiped his hands, clenched his fists and walked to the door of Danyuan Pavilion to stand.

Zuo Yulong and Zuo Yuting were a little stunned.

Whether it was Xiao Lingshan or the general behind him, the power displayed on his body was extremely tyrannical and revealed endless evil aura.

This kind of evil spirit can make people lose their mind.

Passers-by around him unconsciously hid away.

"Xiao, General Xiao has arrived——"

Zuo Lin, who was holding several war horses by the roadside, let out a long shout.

He was also stunned, and he was also anxious.

But he is much more knowledgeable than his two children, and he can speak out at critical moments.

With his voice, Zuo Yulong finally came back to his senses.

"Welcome General Xiao."

Raising his hand to salute, Zuo Yulong called out again.

Xiao Lingshan nodded, looked up at the plaque still covered by red silk, and waited at the door.

Han Muye and Mu Wan, wearing blue robes and moon-white clothes, walked out slowly.

There was a hint of joy on Mu Wan's face, and her expression was demure.

Han Muye, who was standing beside her, raised his hand to Xiao Lingshan in front of him: "This junior has met General Xiao."

Mu Wan also bent down slightly.

According to his status in Xijiang Jiange, Gao Changgong had the obligation to preach and receive vocation from Han Muye, and he was the master.

Gao Changgong and Xiao Yueli have that kind of relationship again.

It is also appropriate for Han Muye to perform the junior ceremony for General Xiao.

Xiao Lingshan is tall, with a white beard and a deep divine light in his eyes.

Seeing Han Muye bowing, Xiao Lingshan hesitated, chuckled and raised his hand to support Han Muye's arm.

"Normally, you and I should be friends as peers."

Xiao Lingshan looked at Han Muye, then turned his gaze to Mu Wan aside, and nodded lightly.

Han Muye could become a god at the mouth of the Guanjiang River. With such strength, he is naturally qualified to compare with Xiao Lingshan's peers.

Even though in the imperial city, Confucianism, Taoism, civil servants and military generals have different subordinates, in the end, cultivation will speak for itself.

"But girl Yueli wrote a letter saying that you are close to my Xiao family, so I will pay you a visit today as an elder."

Looking around, Xiao Lingshan said with a smile: "Living in the imperial city is not easy, let alone doing business."

"Without a backer, it's not easy to do business safely in this imperial city."

Do business safely and steadily.

Regardless of Han Muye's strength or status, as long as he wants to do business safely, he must abide by the rules of the imperial city.

The Xiao family has strength, connections, and power.

Xiao Lingshan came today to provide support for Han Muye and others in Danyuan Pavilion.

"Thank you, senior." Han Muye smiled and handed over again.

After saying that, he raised his hand and said: "Senior, please come into the shop for tea."

Mu Wan also took a step back and turned sideways to meet him.

Xiao Lingshan can come as an elder, which actually shows his sincerity.

Xiao Lingshan waved his hand and stood at the door of the store and said, "You are new to the imperial city and don't have many acquaintances. I have found some colleagues to support you later."

As he spoke, he waved.

The generals who followed him stood on both sides of the shop, holding their hands on the hilts of their swords, solemnly motionless.

Immediately, the momentum of the small shop was different from before.

Those buying buns next door were careful to move away.

This scene clearly shows that the small shop is also backed by military generals.

Bao Zhenyu, who was not far away, scratched his head and looked at Bao Mingcheng, who was standing under the tree beside the road behind him: "Uncle, are you still, are you still stopping me?"

bar?

Those officials and people from the Danyuan Pavilion were not stupid. They left early on the street and carefully observed the situation in front of Danyuan Pavilion.

Bao Mingcheng pondered for a moment, raised his hand and took out a large jade box, held it in his hand, and walked forward.

Bao Zhenyu grinned, crossed his arms and followed behind Bao Mingcheng.

General Xiao Lingshan is the Shangguan of the superior officer of the patrol camp. Even the Defense Department where his uncle works is under the control of the imperial guards.

If we can build some friendship, wouldn't it be an opportunity?

No wonder my uncle came in such a hurry.

"Tap tap tap——"

Bao Mingcheng and the others had just reached the middle of the street, when galloping horses came over and a group of generals in red and black armor came galloping towards them.

"Imperial City Guard General Zheng Cheng."

"General Tao Wusen, the imperial guard Zuo Lingwei."

"General Li Keshun, the Thirteenth Royal Guards of the Imperial City."

Bao Zhenyu and several young people behind him all shouted in low voices.

Not only did General Xiao Lingshan come in person, but the imperial guards also came with so many generals. Could it be that this shop was opened by members of the imperial guards?

"General Deng Xiao of the patrol camp!"

Bao Zhenyu let out a low cry and lowered his head.

The young men behind him also quickly lowered their heads.

They came here under the guise of public welfare, and now that they see the general in charge coming, it will be difficult for them to communicate with each other.

It's just that it's too late.

Deng Xiao, who arrived on horseback, turned his head, cupped his hands towards Bao Mingcheng, and his eyes fell on Bao Zhenyu and others.

"Master Bao, this is..." Taking a look at the jade box held by Bao Mingcheng, Deng Xiao seemed to have understood, and chuckled: "Master Bao is really well-informed."

The expression on Bao Mingcheng's face remained unchanged, and he said softly: "If we live together in Guanyue, I will always give you a gift like this."

Speaking of this, he said loudly: "I haven't reported it to Brother Deng yet. I've asked Zhenyu and the others to help, so as to avoid any trouble."

Being called upon by Bao Mingcheng, Bao Zhenyu and others had no choice but to raise their heads and stand solemnly.

Deng Xiao had already dismounted, nodded and said: "That's fine."

After saying that, he threw away the reins.

Behind Bao Zhenyu, he naturally stepped forward and held the horse.

Several other people hurried forward to lead the horses for the imperial city guards generals.

"Deng Xiao, your soldiers are pretty good."

I don't know which general whispered something.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! No matter who it is, there is no one with a lower military rank than Deng Xiao.

A smile appeared on Deng Xiao's face, and he turned around and said: "Brother Bao, please."

Mr. Bao just now is now Brother Bao.

Bao Mingcheng followed with a smile.

Xiao Lingshan, who was standing in front of the stone steps, chuckled and said, "I'll introduce you to my colleagues in the Imperial City Guards. Maybe you can use your friendship in the future."

Naturally, Han Muye and Mu Wan would not refuse and followed him to meet him.

"Brothers, give Lao Xiao a thumbs up. I'm telling you, Lao Xiao will book the whole show at Chunxue Tower tonight."

Xiao Lingshan shouted loudly, and then pointed at Han Muye and Mu Wan: "My two descendants come to the imperial city to do business, and I will need you brothers to take care of us in the future."

Han Muye and Mu Wan smiled and held their hands.

Xiao Lingshan pointed to the red-armored general at the head: "This is General Zheng Cheng, the Imperial City's personal guard. He arranges all the patrols in the city."

Zheng Cheng looked to be in his sixties, with a ruddy complexion and a gray beard. He took out a long knife with a smile.

"As a martial artist, there is nothing that can be done. This sword has some weight."

Han Muye smiled and reached out to pick it up. Shao Datian behind him was also smart and hurriedly stepped forward to pick it up.

This knife is indeed very heavy, and Shao Datian's arm was slightly heavy due to his strength.

Zheng Cheng chuckled and stood aside.

Danyuan Pavilion has not yet opened, so those who come naturally have to wait to watch the ceremony.

"This is the imperial city's personal guard, General Zuo Lingwei, Tao Wusen. This is the imperial city's personal guard, Yulin Thirteenth Guards, general Li Keshun. This is the patrol camp..."

Xiao Lingshan introduced them, and these generals gave them gifts.

Some give knives, some give guns, and some give battle armor.

They are all good things, at least spiritual weapon level, worth hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones.

It's just that Han Muye probably has no use for these things.

However, he still smiled and thanked everyone one by one.

"This is -" Xiao Lingshan raised his hand and pointed at Bao Mingcheng, slightly stunned.

"Bao Mingcheng, Secretary of the Ministry of Defense, lives nearby, and happened to come to congratulate the opening of Danyuan Pavilion." Bao Mingcheng hurriedly held the jade box and spoke loudly.

"Defense Department, Gao Mingcheng." Xiao Lingshan nodded and whispered.

Bao Mingcheng was overjoyed.

Han Muye did not reach out to take the jade box, nor did he look at what was inside. He said, "Thank you, Mr. Bao, for rescuing the siege last time."

He had already seen Bao Mingcheng leading a group of people on the opposite side, and it seemed that he was willing to help.

Hearing Han Muye say that Bao Mingcheng had made a rescue before, Xiao Lingshan frowned at first, then looked at Bao Mingcheng again and nodded lightly.

"Neighbors should do what they should," Bao Mingcheng said, handing the jade box to Shao Datian's arms.

"Brother Datian, please keep it for now. It's just a small thing. It's a celebration."

Shao Datian turned around to see that Han Muye did not refuse, and took a step back holding the sword, spear and jade box.

Bao Mingcheng smiled and stepped aside.

Fortunately, the front of the shop is wide, otherwise there would be no room for people to stand at this time.

Xiao Lingshan turned to look at the covered plaque, then looked at Han Muye: "Is anyone else coming?"

I guess no one else is coming, right?

Anyway, he and Mu Wan didn't recognize anyone in the city.

Lu Yuzhou was supposed to come, but he had almost moved his small courtyard, and he didn't know if this guy would deliberately not come today.

In fact, for Han Muye, it doesn't matter whether anyone comes to congratulate the store on its opening.

As long as no one comes to cause trouble, that's fine.

After thinking about it, he shook his head, and just as he was about to speak, someone strode over to the door.

The visitor was wearing a Taoist robe and was accompanied by two Taoist boys.

"Changyun Danfang congratulates Danyuan Pavilion on its opening."

Changyun Taoist priest in a purple Taoist robe stepped forward with a smile, and two Taoist boys behind him held up several elixirs.

Han Muye didn't expect this person to come.

Mu Wan, who is also a practitioner of alchemy, stepped forward. Zuo Yuting hurriedly took the elixir and saluted Master Changyun.

Taoist Changyun chuckled and told Zuo Yuting to do a good job in Danyuan Pavilion, and then stepped aside to prepare to watch the ceremony.

When I got to the side, I heard people around me talking about the identity of the general, and I couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Is this Danyuan Pavilion actually related to the imperial guards?

The Red Flame Army is a big consumer of pills!

Hearing the name of Xiao Ling Mountain, Taoist Changyun was even more fortunate that he had caught up.

There may be a chance to get close to General Xiao later.

"I'm Taoist Changyun from the Changyun Danfang, my brother is -" He turned to look at Bao Mingcheng beside him.

Bao Mingcheng cupped his hands and said: "Bao Mingcheng, Secretary of Defense."

Department of Defense?

Either a general or an official, the background of Danyuan Pavilion is not simple!

Just now I saw people from the elixir department and officials watching on the roadside. Is this to maintain order?

On the edge of the avenue, several young people gathered around Bao Zhenyu.

"Brother Yu, this store has a great background. General Xiao personally entertains customers."

A young man whispered: "Your uncle is still shrewd. This has established some friendship with General Xiao. In the future, it will not be..."

Bao Zhenyu glared and interrupted his words, but Bao Zhenyu also had a relaxed look on his face.

"Who is my uncle? He is selfless."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, looked not far away and said, "Hurry, someone else is here."

"Getting ready to pick up passengers, not cars."

Two carriages had already arrived and stopped beside the avenue.

The person who dismounted first made the two deacons of the Alchemy Department who were watching not far away were stunned.

"It's Tao Zhu, the great master of the alchemy department!"

"This person is in charge of the Imperial City Alchemy Workshop!"

Taoist Changyun, who was standing next to Bao Mingcheng, let out a low voice and looked at Tao Zhu in disbelief, undressing and walking forward.

Would a big shot like Dan Dao also come to this shop?

Taoist Changyun clenched his fists excitedly, and when he saw two people getting out of another carriage, his expression was stunned.

"Grand Master Qin Suyang, Qin Wuyuan, Grand Master..."

Qin Suyang, the grand master in charge of the Alchemy Department, came with his third son who had just become a grand master!

Who in the world of alchemy can have such dignity?

Taoist Changyun felt his whole body trembling, staring at the three alchemy masters, watching them step forward.

Xiao Lingshan also saw the three people coming, with a surprised look on his face, glanced at Han Muye, and then strode over to greet them.

He knew that Han Muye had an unusual relationship with Lu Yuzhou, but Lu Yuzhou had never been very involved in worldly affairs, so he probably wouldn't be here today.

In his opinion, it is rare for Danyuan Pavilion to have the support of the Xiao family, and he did not expect the Grand Master of the Danyuan Department to be present today.

This is a big deal.

"Master Qin, Grand Master Tao Zhu, Grand Master Wu Yuan, can you come -" Xiao Lingshan smiled and greeted him, but before he could finish his words, he saw Qin Wuyuan had already stepped forward and bowed.

"Qin Wuyuan would like to say hello to you sir."

gentlemen.

Please greet me.

This is the disciple-making ceremony!

Qin Wuyuan, the great alchemy master, presented Han Muye with the gift of discipleship!

Xiao Lingshan was not the only one present who was stunned, Taoist Changyun over there had a dull look on his face.

what's the situation?

The corners of Bao Mingcheng's mouth twitched, suppressing the shock in his heart.

Fortunately, he is a practitioner of Confucianism and Taoism, and his character is stable enough, so he did not make a fool of himself like the Taoist Chang Yun, a practitioner of alchemy next to him.

Qin Wuyuan's gift surprised everyone onlookers.

He was a person at the pinnacle of alchemy, how could he give such a gift to someone?

"There is no need for this." Han Muye waved his hand, and then said: "Senior Su Yang and the two great masters can come, it will be a great success."

Qin Suyang nodded towards Xiao Lingshan, then raised his hand and took out a jade box.

"Your new store is opening, I'll bring some elixirs."

Tao Zhu beside him smiled and said, "I'm also bringing some elixirs."

Han Muye took it with a smile, a look on his face.

There are quite a lot of elixirs contained in these two jade boxes!

The value is at least eight million spirit stones.

This gift is not light.

"Everyone, please come to the store for tea. The store is a bit small and there are not many elixirs. You can take a look first." Han Muye put away the jade box and greeted Qin Suyang and the others with a smile.

"I am very interested in your elixir." Tao Zhu's eyes lit up and he turned to look at Qin Suyang.

Qin Suyang nodded and walked into the store.

Qin Suyang was a semi-sage in Confucianism and Taoism, a great master in alchemy, and Tao Zhu was in charge of the alchemy workshop in the imperial city.

Due to their status, they would not stand at the door to receive guests.

How many people in the world are worthy of their reception?

Qin Wuyuan walked a few steps and stood behind Han Muye with a respectful look on his face.

At this time, he was receiving guests as a descendant of Han Muye.

At this time, the atmosphere outside Danyuan Pavilion was a bit strange.

The merchants who came at the beginning only stayed in place to maintain order and look after the carriages and horses.

This is just like a normal store opening and some help.

But at this time, in front of the Danyuan Pavilion, there were generals, officials, and alchemists.

The generals Xiao Lingshan invited also had strange expressions on their faces.

Didn't General Xiao say that his relatives and descendants have no connections in the imperial city, so he asked him to come and support him?

Even the Grand Master of the Department of Alchemy is here, and the Grand Master of Alchemy Dao Qin Wuyuan is here to perform the disciple ceremony. Doesn't it matter?

If an elixir shop has such a close relationship with the elixir department, why do they need soldiers like them here?

But then I thought about it, and everyone had smiles on their faces again.

The imperial guards are eager to get more elixirs from the elixir department.

No amount is too much.

Xiao Lingshan coughed lightly and looked at Qin Wuyuan. Before he could speak, he suddenly frowned and turned to look into the distance.

The carriages and horses are noisy, and the honor guard is splendid!

Linlin's carriages and horses were approaching, and there were soldiers and armor walking in neat steps.

Where can soldiers be mobilized in the imperial city?

The generals here today don’t know where the soldiers, armor, and honor guards came from!

"Prince Qi's Crown Prince!"

People with sharp eyes couldn't help but scream when they saw the decoration on the pillar, their eyes full of horror.

Xiao Lingshan was also stunned, and turned to look at Han Muye: "You, are you familiar with King Qi?"

King of Qi.

Han Muye did not know King Qi, but he knew who King Qi was.

At that time, the Western Shu County was under the control of the Western King.

King Zhenxi was originally in Shuxi County, but now that his life is about to expire, he summoned King Zhenxi's family to the imperial city and named him King of Qi. His son, Prince Qi, paid even more attention to him and wanted to adopt him as the crown prince.

Although the King of Qi's family is low-key, they may become the masters of the Zhongzhou Dynasty!

In front of the main road, passers-by should give way.

It’s rare to see something like this in Zhongcheng in ten years.

Bao Zhenyu and others looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

The carriage stopped in front of Danyuan Pavilion, and several people in green robes carried gift boxes to the front of the store.

The door curtain on the carriage opened, revealing a delicate face.

Han Muye smiled and nodded.

This little girl has grown up.

On the Jinchuan River, cloud satin, the crown prince.

Yun Duan glanced at Han Muye and said calmly: "My sister asked me to give it as a gift."

After saying that, he closed the curtain and the carriage and horses moved forward.

The sister of the Crown Prince of Qi, Princess Yunjin, who is known as the "fair lady, on the boat on the river" who wanders outside the imperial city.

Bao Zhenyu and others on the side of the avenue looked confused.

Until the carriage and horses left, Xiao Lingshan was still a little confused.

The others looked at Han Muye and Mu Wan with strange expressions on their faces.

The family of King Qi is already at the pinnacle of worldly imperial power.

Since the owner of Danyuan Pavilion knows such people, why would he open such a small shop?

Xiao Lingshan turned his head, and the generals looked at him strangely.

Are you, Lao Xiao, just kidding us?

Bao Mingcheng, who was standing on one side, looked at the plaque covered by red silk.

Imperial City Guards, Alchemy Department, Royal Family.

Who else in the world can interact with so many forces?

Who is the owner of this shop?

The breeze blew, lifting a corner of the red silk on the plaque.

Bao Mingcheng didn't see the words written on it, but when he saw the inscription on the plaque, his shoulders shook and he almost shouted.

Handwritten by Grandmaster Huang Tingshu!

This person's handwriting goes back a hundred years, right?

The owner of Danyuan Pavilion actually allowed this person to inscribe a plaque in his own hand!

Bao Mingcheng thought of the paintings and calligraphy hanging in the shop.

Those are all authentic.

Each of these paintings and calligraphy is priceless.

Of course, some things cannot be measured with spiritual stones at all.

Even if you have spiritual stones, you may not be able to buy these things.

For example, Mr. Qingteng's authentic work cannot be obtained by just having the spirit stone.

A plaque inscribed by the great master was erected in the Huangting Courtyard, and the shop was covered with authentic works of the great master of Confucianism and Taoism. What kind of person could have such a plaque?

"Sure enough, the store is open today. I'm not late, right?"

There was a sound on the edge of the avenue.

Han Muye turned his head, with surprise on his face.

Xiao Lingshan looked up and his eyes widened.

Bao Mingcheng clenched his fists, but his eyes were red.

Qin Wuyuan, who was standing behind Han Muye, felt almost unsteady.

Tao Zhu and Qin Suyang, who were evaluating elixirs, calligraphy and paintings in the store, stepped out and stood at the door.
