Chapter 71 The Emperor's Coffin Can't Hold Down

Before Liu Lang left, Hu Lu asked him to find Lin Xiaotian.

"Just say that I have something important to discuss with you. I will be waiting in the Four Elephants Hall. I must see him today!"

Rokuro responded solemnly, "Yes!"

Then He Kun also came. He reported some of the losses in the capital last night and submitted them in writing.

Hulu was very satisfied, it was exactly what he needed.

"These are just some serious ones, and there are some less serious ones that I haven't written about yet," He Kun rolled his eyes, "such as the theft of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Oh?" Hu Lu put down the book and asked curiously, "Who is so bold that he even dares to steal it from the Prime Minister's Palace?"

"I don't know. I just know that the plaque on the door of Prime Minister Xiao's house was stolen. It is said that it is an antique passed down by the ancestors of the Xiao family." He Kun said.

"This thief knows how to steal." Hu Lu is also a relative of the Xiao family and has some knowledge of this matter. "The plaque with the word 'Xiao Mansion' does have some origins. It was from the clan when the father of Prime Minister Xiao settled in the capital.

The ancestral items brought out, Mr. Xiao was a second-rank official at that time and held a high position, so the Xiao clan of Hanzhang could only swallow their anger. I heard that the two families have not been in contact with each other since then."

As Hu Lu was talking, a sudden flash of inspiration came to him, as if he had caught something.

After sending He Kun away, Hulu asked Aotunying, "Yingzi, do you think it's possible that Guo'er is a descendant of Xiao Potian?"

Xiao Potian? Chu He cheered up. Isn't this the person the master said was as famous as Chu Aotian and Lin Xiaotian?

Ao Tunying was confused, "I don't know if it's true or not. I only know that if it's true, then Brother Lu, there must be too many rebel descendants in your palace. Sister-in-law Rong won't talk about it. There's another one ahead of me."

As for Chu Aotian’s descendants, I don’t know if Mr. Lin has any girls of the right age in his family, hehe.”

Hu Lu sighed, "Even if there is an estimate, he is the ninth generation grandson, so who am I?"

He would never do such a disastrous thing.

While Hulu and others were chewing on Xiao Xiang's words behind his back, Xiao Shen was meeting with his sister, the Queen Mother Xiao.

"Brother, have you met the legendary Lin Tianwang?" Queen Mother Xiao asked anxiously.

"I've seen it before."

"He really knows how to teach?"

"It should be true, I can't see the flaw anyway." Xiao Xiang sighed.

"So there are really cultivators in this world? Lu'er said that the strange fog yesterday was caused by King Lin Tian."

Xiao Shen was silent for a moment, "Maybe, I have been thinking about it these days, whether the Taoist priests recruited by Emperor Wanjia were not all liars."

Queen Mother Xiao's eyes lit up, she stepped back and asked in a low voice, "Tell me, is Bai Lian a cultivator?"

Xiao Shen suddenly turned serious and said, "Queen Mother, you'd better not mention this name again in this life. I'm afraid the late emperor's coffin won't be able to hold it for my brother!"

Empress Dowager Xiao's aura was usually far superior to that of Xiao Shen, but at this moment she looked like a little girl who had done something wrong, lowering her head and not daring to speak.

Later, Prime Minister Xiao said, "By the way, my home was robbed."

"What? I mean what was lost?"

Xiao Shen: "The door plaque that my father brought from the old house in Hanzhang is missing. Although it is an antique, it is not an antique. I don't know who cares about it."

"I remembered something," Empress Dowager Xiao said, "Guo'er once asked me if any of the ancestors of the Xiao family could draw talismans. I thought she must not have done it out of nowhere. Lu'er must have asked her to ask."

Xiao Shen snorted, "What a nonsense. There must be one named Xiao among the four heavenly kings, and the emperor made the association. Don't ignore it."

Queen Mother Xiao said oh, she really wanted to ask, brother, do you really not remember the coffin covered with yellow talisman paper when you were a child?

After all, she didn't ask. She had asked this question countless times, and the answer was always the same: What the hell, I was reading "Spring and Autumn" that day!

That’s all for today. Regardless of whether the cultivator is real or fake, the emperor is obsessed with it now. The top priority is to recruit new members to the harem and give birth to a prince.

The Queen Mother stood up and said, "I will go to Yue Palace right now. The list of beautiful ladies will be finalized today and will be sent to the palace tomorrow."

Originally, the list of show girls was drawn up personally by the Second Concubine Xian Shu, but the Queen Mother suddenly arrived at Yue Palace, which made more than a hundred girls waiting for the show feel more uneasy.

In the Sixiang Hall, Hulu and Yingzi were having a meal, which was delivered by Miao Hongxiu personally. Lin Xiaotian happened to arrive at this time.

Hulu Chopsticks kept saying, "King Lin Tian asked me to wait."

Lin Xiaotian said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please bear with me. I went to the Yihong Courtyard last night. I didn't expect it to be as good as the Jinfeng Tower. The capital's goulan is really interesting."

Hu Lu put down his chopsticks and smiled coldly, "King Lin Tian is so elegant, but he doesn't know that yesterday the people in the capital were in an endless hell. It was so tragic. How many people were displaced, and how many people were separated from their wives and children. It was all because of your fog formation.

Even the Prime Minister’s Mansion was stolen!”

"It was an unintentional mistake for me. If you want to blame it, it's the Jinfeng Tower. Your Majesty should seal them off." Lin Xiaotian said, blaming the old man for being very cunning.

"But it's hard for me to understand the hatred in my heart!" Hulu gritted his teeth and burst into tears, "If the people suffer and the prime minister's mansion is stolen, that's it. After all, I can't empathize with it, but my safety, my eldest princess...

"

"Ah, what happened to Princess?" Lin Xiaotian muttered.

Hu Lu said bitterly, "Because of your fog formation, my eldest princess accidentally fell into the water and almost died. She is still lying on the hospital bed and taking ginseng soup to survive."

"Ah, it's so serious?" Lin Xiaotian's tone became more relaxed when he heard that the eldest princess was not dead.

Hu Lu, "So I want to ask you if you have any elixirs that can extend your life and strengthen your body. This can be considered as some compensation for my son's safety."

Just, just grab it!

"No, there really is no such thing," Lin Xiaotian said. "When we disbanded, I did have some pills, talismans and magic weapons distributed by my brothers. But now that almost two hundred years have passed, the pills have been eaten up long ago.

, all the talismans have been used up, and there are only some magic weapons left, but they have all been distributed to the descendants and left in Taoyuan Village."

Hulu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Then my princess suffered this calamity for nothing. If she develops a hidden disease in the future, who should I turn to to settle the debt?"

Ao Tunying said, "Mr. Lin, I have a suggestion that you might as well listen to."

Hu Lu, "Oh, tell me about it."

Ao Tunying said, "This time the eldest princess fell into the water. Not only was she ill, but also the other princesses were frightened. In order to express his apology, King Lin Tian should pass on all the Qi-Entraining Techniques to them."

Hu Lu waved his hand, "Not only the princess, but also the concubine must learn it. Only if you learn it well can you protect the princess well!"

Watching the two men singing in harmony, Lin Xiaotian frowned and said, "Your Majesty, the Qi-Entraining Technique is the basic skill of our sect. It is a secret that is not passed down. How can it be easily passed on to others?"

Hu Lu, "I have found the descendants of the Chu family."

Lin Xiaotian pondered for a moment, "Let's look at the talent first, otherwise it will be a waste of effort like your Majesty."

Hu Lu was not angry, but smiled, "Then let's start with my Zhaoyi Red Sleeves~"
