Chapter 1845: Asking the Sword in the Forbidden City!
Qianjintai in Tianqi City is the first of the four major gambling houses in Beili. The other three are Qingzhou Baicheng, Tianxiafang, and Beauty Village in Sangu City.
The reason why Qianjin Terrace was named is because in the center of Qianjin Terrace, there is a high platform made of Qianjin Terrace, and this gambling house got its name from this.
But this gambling house held a banquet today, and the host of the banquet was Xiao Se, who had just arrived in Beijing.
Unfortunately, the banquet had already started for a long time, but still no one came to keep the appointment. It was obvious that most people were afraid of the White King and the Red King, and some did not dare to come.
Of course, there were some people who did not take this prince who had just returned to Kyoto seriously.
Just when Lei Wujie felt embarrassed for Xiao Se, the first guest arrived. He was the boss of Tianming Zhai in the capital, Jiujiu Dao. He represented the forces of the nine sects of Tianqi City, including the three gates and nineteen houses.
Although this force is all low-level, they can manage things that the government cannot control, they can also handle black industries that big businessmen cannot touch, and they can even get clues that cannot be found in Dali Temple.
And the reason why he came here was to express his gratitude to Xiao Se for his kindness. When he was looked down upon by others, it was only Xiao Se who gave him support, and he was able to gain a foothold in the top ranks of Tianqi City.
However, he also put himself in danger because he indirectly disobeyed the orders of the Red King and the White King.
Xiao Se personally stood at the door to greet him, and said happily, "I knew you would come, but I didn't expect you to come first!"
Although Jiujiu Dao knew the danger, he still smiled and said, "Where justice comes, there is no need to refuse."
Xiao Se looked at Jiujiudao's heroic look, took out a small porcelain bottle, and said solemnly, "This is the medicine my master gave me. It is said to be the March Death Pill. No matter how severe you are hit,
No matter how serious the injury is, if you don’t find my master’s treatment within three months of taking this, you will definitely die.”
Jiujiudao was a little confused. He knew that this trip was dangerous, but he came anyway. He also knew that Xiao Se would be very grateful to him, but he did not expect that Xiao Se's way of expressing gratitude would be so special.
He was not angry, thinking that Xiao Se regarded him as a friend, so he took the medicine and asked curiously, "Then you are still alive in these three months?"
Xiao Se nodded and said solemnly, "My master said so, I haven't used it yet."
After hearing this, Jiujiu Dao said happily, "Jiujiu Dao is very honored to be able to test the medicine for you!"
"What are you talking about so happily?"
Ye Ruoyi's voice suddenly came over, and it seemed that he had been listening to it for a long time.
Lei Wujie asked excitedly, "Miss Ye, you are here!"
Seeing Lei Wujie's happy expression, Ye Ruoyi couldn't help but smile and nod.
Xiao Se frowned and asked, "Are you here to represent the General's Mansion?"
Ye Ruoyi shook her head and said calmly, "I am here on behalf of myself, and I am here for my friends."
When she said this, she first looked at Lei Wujie, and then looked at Xiao Se.
Xiao Se understood what it meant, and then smiled and said, "Just come!"
Seeing Xiao Se say this, Ye Ruoyi asked curiously, "Didn't you inform your master about such a big matter?"
Xiao Se was stunned for a moment, and then asked doubtfully, "Isn't he in Muliang City?"
After hearing this, Ye Ruoyi smiled and said, "How could Gujianxian need your master to guard you all the time? I received news here that after you entered Tianqi City, your master left Muliang City.
Let Monk Wu Xin keep watch there."
When Lei Wujie heard this, he interrupted with some surprise, "Wuxin is alone? Can he hold up the Lone Sword Immortal Luo Qingyang?"
Ye Ruoyi was not impatient after being interrupted, and explained with a smile, "Wuxin sincerely worshiped Wang Yue and became Wang Yue's outer disciple. When will he realize the formation method to crack Mu Liang City, and when will he be taken away?
Become a formal disciple."
Xiao Se heard this and found the key point. He asked seriously, "Mu Liangcheng's formation? The formation my master used to trap Luo Qingyang?!"
Ye Ruoyi nodded and said solemnly, "Yes, Wu Xin wanted to learn the formation, so he wanted to become a disciple. And after your master taught him the formation, he left. Logically speaking, he should be here by now.
Xueyue City, I don’t know why, but I haven’t arrived yet.”
Lei Wujie said nonchalantly, "Master's martial arts skills are world-class, so there will definitely be no problem, but Xiao Se, if you invite Master, you have to find a way to spread the news."
Xiao Se shook his head and said helplessly, "No, there is no need to bother the master with this little matter. I guess the master must have encountered something interesting. Let's face today's trouble first."
What he meant was that if not enough people came today, his first appearance back at Tianqi would be embarrassing.
At this moment, a waiter suddenly shouted, "We have a guest!"
Everyone looked back and saw that it was Lan Yuehou, so they hurried forward to greet him.
But Lan Yuehou smiled and said, "Xiao Se, look who I brought here."
When he said this, he also opened the sedan curtain behind him.
"Grand Master Dong Zhu?"
The emperor was in a coma, and the two people in charge of the country were Grand Master Dong Zhu and Lan Yuehou.
Now, both of them are here.
Ye Ruoyi didn't expect it to be them, so she quickly reminded Xiao Se and asked Xiao Se to come over and greet her.
Xiao Se seemed to have an impression of Grand Master Dong, but it had been so long that he had forgotten most of it, so he quickly stepped forward and saluted the Grand Master, "Thank you, Grand Master, for your support."
But the Grand Master smiled and said, "I didn't want to come in the first place. I heard that there is no one here, so I came to give you a place."
Xiao Se knew that this was a way to repay a favor, but the old master didn't owe much in favor, so it was paid off in this way, which gave him a bad feeling.
Although he was nervous in his heart, he said respectfully on his face, "Please!"
The arrival of the two men was like a signal. Officials of all sizes in the court rushed over as long as there were posts. Even the six ministers, Li Ruozhong, the Minister of Hubu, Zhou De, the Minister of Punishment, and Wu Jingcheng, the Minister of the Ministry of War,
Xuan Dezhong, the Minister of Personnel, Xu Weicheng, the Minister of Rites, and Zhu Yumo, the Minister of Works, all failed to succeed.

"I'm not late!"
A cheerful voice came over. Lei Wujie looked closely and found that it was Mu Chunfeng. He quickly shouted loudly, "Qingzhou, Yunjian City, Mu Family, and Mr. Mu are here!"
"Brother Lei, you don't have to be so polite. I'm not only here to attend the banquet, but I also want to pay for it. Just don't dislike me."
Seeing Lei Wujie shouting so loudly, Mu Chunfeng felt very happy and quickly explained.
Lei Wujie still doesn't understand what's going on, but Ye Ruoyi understands, because the Mu family in Qingzhou is the richest in the world, and many merchants have business dealings with them. If the Mu family is offended, no matter which family they are, they will be punished.
The business cannot continue.
Therefore, Mu Chunfeng came here this time to support his friends and blackmail those merchants into coming.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Mu!"
Xiao Se was entertaining some distinguished guests in the room at the moment. Since Sikong Qianluo understood, he thanked Mu Chunfeng generously.
Mu Chunfeng said nonchalantly, "We are friends, why are you so polite? If you insist on thanking me, just tell Senior Wang and let me become my teacher and learn medical skills."
Sikong Qianluo said with a smile, "When we see the master, we must mention it to him. Even if he doesn't accept a disciple, we will help you persuade the master's wife. She is a descendant of the Medicine King Valley and has very good medical skills."
"Really? Thank you, thank you!"
As he said this, he walked inside and chose a seat near the bleak place to sit down.
Not long after he arrived, all the wealthy merchants from Tianqi City arrived. They didn't expect that Xiao Se actually knew people from the Mu family, and they should not be underestimated.
Although the Qianjin Terrace was almost full now, none of Xiao Se's brothers came, which made Xiao Se understand in his heart that his brothers would not welcome him back to Kyoto.
Just when Xiao Se was feeling depressed, he suddenly heard Lei Wujie shouting, "National Master Qi Tianchen has arrived!"
Xiao Se was stunned for a moment. He didn't know why the Imperial Master came, but he still walked out to greet him with some hesitation. After he saw Qi Tianchen, before he could salute, Qi Tianchen spoke first, "Sixth Prince, I wonder if your master will come today."
?”
Xiao Se was about to say that he didn't know, but suddenly he felt a sound coming from the air.
Everyone looked back, only to find a sword box falling in the courtyard in front of the Qianjin Platform, and a young man also fell from the sky, standing just on top of the sword box.
He took a look at the scene and probably guessed that this was Tianqi City, so he shouted loudly,
"Yam Luo Palace, Yama Jun, Wenjian Tianqi City!"
Hearing the reputation of Yama Luodian, everyone quickly looked over, but what they saw was a child, which made people a little confused.
"Is the number one in the world so young?"
"Is this person Yan Jun?"
After hearing everyone's doubts, Xiao Se stepped forward and asked solemnly, "Wushuang, what do you mean?"
When Wushuang saw that it was Xiao Se and knew that he was Wang Yue's disciple, he quickly smiled and said, "I don't know the way. Your master sent me here. The reward is that I will pass a message for him."
Xiao Se looked at this unreliable Wushuang and said angrily, "What are you talking about?"
Wushuang said matter-of-factly, "It's your master who wants to ask Jian Tianqi City!"
Xiao Se was not deaf, so of course he heard Wu Shuang's words, and asked angrily, "When and where?"
After Wushuang heard this, he scratched his head and said with some uncertainty, "I forgot the date, but I remember what your master said about purple and peak."
Imperial Master Qi Tianchen's face suddenly turned pale, and he asked in disbelief, "The top of the Forbidden City?"
