At the same time, after Guan Ning left, a monk walked out from the other side of the imperial study.

He was in his forties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, holding Buddhist beads in his hands, and his complexion was slightly white, but the cassock he wore was black, and his temperament was not that of a traditional monk, but more secular.

"You heard what I just said, what do you think?"

Emperor Longjing asked calmly without turning around.

The monk did not bow to Emperor Longjing and behaved as usual.

He said: "Did you notice that you didn't mention the assassination he suffered on the road, and he didn't mention it either."

"Is he waiting for me to tell you?"

Emperor Long Jing said in a low voice: "Is he testing me?"

"It's hard to say."

The monk continued: "Wei Chen suggested that since we have suppressed it, we should suppress it to the end. How can this good-for-nothing prince support Zhenbei Palace, and this is also an opportunity."

"Press it to the end."

Emperor Longjing said in a low voice: "The Zhenbei Palace has passed down talents from generation to generation, and only such a useless prince has emerged. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it is also a deterrent to other vassal kings!"

"I have given Xuan Ning to him. He is a consort after all. With this status, he can guarantee wealth and honor, and it can also be regarded as an inheritance of loyalty to Zhenbei Palace from generation to generation."

"It's just that Princess Yongning may be overly concerned. After all, she has already made an engagement and then backed out..."

"Why are you worried? The royal princess has been a political tool since she was born. In the past, she was a tool to marry the North Prince, but now she is a tool to suppress."

Emperor Longjing continued: "Deng Qiu's son should be punished for his death by cursing Guan Zhongshan in public, but Deng Qiu is conscientious and should be promoted to the rank of Left Minister of the Ministry of War."

In the Dakang Dynasty, the left was respected.

"The Holy One is wise."

The monk immediately spoke and sighed in his heart, this emperor's mental skills have been used to the extreme.

Deng Mingyuan offended King Zhenbei and was punished. It was for outsiders to see, showing the emperor's great kindness and attitude. King Zhenbei was not dead!

Promoting Deng Qiu is a reward, a hint that if you do well, keep doing it...

"Is there any news about Guan Zhongshan?"

Emperor Long Jing continued: "You have to see people alive, and you have to see your corpse when you're dead, otherwise I won't be at ease."

"Someone has been sent over."

The monk continued: "There is another piece of good news that I want to report to you."

"Tianyilou has been wiped out, and its related martial arts techniques have also been brought back."

"Tianyi means becoming one with the sky. It's really a big statement."

Emperor Long Jing said: "It is rumored that there are many martial arts secrets on the first floor of the sky. The top one is Tianyijue. Have you ever found it?"

"Already got it back."

The monk said: "I am here, preparing to present it to His Majesty."

As he spoke, he touched his cuffs, only to find them empty.

"Huh?"

He continued to look for it, but there was none.

"Xuanxin, what's going on?"

Emperor Longjing asked.

"I took it with me when I came here, but now I can't find it for some reason."

Monk Xuanxin murmured.

"Could it be lost? Impossible."

"Um?"

Emperor Long Jing looked unhappy and stared at Xuan Xin.

Cold sweat broke out on Xuan Xin's bald head. He obviously had it with him, but he couldn't find it.

Your Majesty will suspect him of hiding it secretly.

"Wait a moment, maybe I forgot to take it."

"Go quickly."

"yes."

Xuanxin left quickly.

At this moment, Guan Ning has returned to his house.

There is also a palace in the capital, the Zhenbei Palace, which covers a large area and is luxurious and magnificent.

It's just that he has to sit in the north all year round. This place is vacant and only a few people are left to guard it. Originally, the focus of Zhenbei Palace is not here. Apart from this, there are no other industries.

According to the imperial decree, the feudal princes were not allowed to enter the capital at will, nor were they allowed to purchase property. This actually meant that they were not allowed to develop their power and avoid becoming powerful in the capital.

Perhaps this made the Holy Sage even more worried...

"The prince is back."

There was an old servant waiting at the door.

"Steward Wu."

Guan Ning recognized this old servant, he usually guarded this house.

"How many people are there in this house?"

"Not many. Counting the maids and guards, there are only about thirty."

Butler Wu replied: "A powerful vassal king like the prince is jealous of others. Usually this house is rarely occupied, so the prince is too lazy to take care of it..."

"By the way, many people have come to Lao Nu and want to buy our house, but Lao Nu doesn't dare to make the decision."

"Do you dare to buy this house?"

Guan Ning frowned.

He knew that this mansion was given by the emperor.

"No one dared to do it before, but now some people do."

Butler Wu said: "Your Majesty, something happened to the prince, and now the Zhenbei Palace depends on you. You can't do what you did before..."

He didn't say anything after all.

"Lean on me?"

Guan Ning shook his head and took it one step at a time.

"Arrange for me to take a bath first. This journey will be too tiring."

"It has been arranged. You can take a shower and change clothes."

Butler Wu led Guan Ning in.

He has memories of this palace, and its level of luxury is one of the best in Shangjing City.

Originally, he could be a second-generation top official, but he ended up being so miserable.

As expected, waste materials are waste materials wherever they go.

Guan Ning shook his head and didn't bother to visit anymore. He was really not in the mood.

"Come back so soon."

Jin Yue appeared in front of her.

The standard configuration of the second generation, the beautiful bodyguard, looked really eye-catching, and Guan Ning's mood instantly improved.

"I didn't say a few words at first."

"What exactly did you say? Can you tell me about it?"

Jin Yue was really worried that this dandy prince would anger the Holy Emperor.

"You really didn't say anything. Your Majesty just said that I should marry Princess Xuanning as soon as possible."

"Then what did you say?"

"I have no objection. No matter who the princess is, she is also the prince-in-law."

Jin Yue was really speechless.

"How come you, Prince, are still thinking about marrying the princess at this time? Do you really think this is a good thing?"

Jin Yue looked like she hated iron.

"The prince's life or death is uncertain. The palace is under comprehensive suppression. My wife is struggling to support me. I cannot let the family fall by the wayside and be invaded by others, but you..."

"If nothing else, you encountered several assassinations on the road, why didn't you think of investigating the murderer?"
