Xie Linfu spit the water into the woman's mouth, then coughed hard, moved his throat slightly, and spit out the thick phlegm.
Water droplets splashed on the woman's face and flowed slowly.
Taking the hot towel from the maid on the left, Xie Linfu wiped his face and threw it away. Then he took the second towel, wiped his face again, threw it away, and finally took the third towel. After wiping it, he threw it away.
Three towels will be thrown out of the house and will not be used again.
Xie Linfu stepped on his feet, and the kneeling maid slowly moved out.
Xie Linfu put his feet on the ground, stood up and walked outside.
After breakfast, the housekeeper jogged over and whispered: "Master Xiang, there are a lot of people outside, even..."
Xie Linfu raised his hand to stop the housekeeper and said: "Get ready to go to court."
"yes."
Before dawn, Xie Linfu walked out of Jie Mansion. All the officials stood in line and bowed their heads slightly.
Xie Linfu only nodded to a few of them and got on the sedan.
A group of officials got into sedan chairs and rode horses, following behind.
The huge procession stopped outside the Shen'an Gate of the Forbidden Palace.
Civil servants stood at the left gate of Shen'an, and military officers stood at the right gate of Shen'an.
Xie Linfu's sedan stopped not far from the left gate of Shen'an, but he did not get off the sedan.
The officials got off their sedans and horses early and stood together in small groups, chatting in low voices.
Some of the top officials closed their eyes to meditate, some raised their heads to look at the sky, some just listened, and most of them did not speak.
The Chinese officials were whispering among themselves.
"How much did you hear about last night?"
"A lot? I've only heard of three, namely the Holy Mountain was destroyed, the Pier Temple was smashed, and the Imperial Tomb was bombed."
"there……"
The officials turned to look at the statues of the Four Emperors of Xunshan. From a distance, they looked the same as before, but they knew very well that it must be a Taoist master who was covering it up.
The faces of the four emperors had long been chiselled beyond recognition.
"The movement in the imperial mausoleum is a bit loud. Does anyone know what's going on?"
"It was done using exploding talisman jars. It is said that the Four Emperors' Mausoleums and the one being prepared were all blown up. No one was killed, but they were all destroyed. A large number of top-grade puppet masters had to be sent to rebuild it."
"The person who exploded the talisman cylinder probably knows who did it."
"That one is serious about it."
"His methods may seem useless, but he definitely has some skills in life arts."
"anything else?"
"I learned from my colleagues in the south that for some reason, the Tianjiang River is flowing backwards."
All the officials were shocked.
"Super product takes action?"
"I don't know, but it's true. Officials along the coast almost went crazy. But the strange thing is that the river water didn't hurt anyone."
"I know one thing. There is a huge black vortex in the northwest. I don't know what it is exactly."
"One more thing, don't talk nonsense. The Confederate army has been decided and the flag has been changed."
"What? This..."
All the officials looked at each other.
Previously, the Dingnan Army went to the northwest under the banner of exterminating demons and defending the road, and the court was already panicking. But now that the flag has been officially changed, it has dealt a huge blow to the court.
The river guard army that the imperial court used to be the most capable was defeated by that one.
Then the Xian Wang army, which was the most capable of fighting, rebelled.
Now the Dingnan Army, which is the most capable of fighting, has raised its flag of rebellion.
What can those Tianmen Pass defenders suppressed by three super-grades do?
What else can the court use?
"Something happened to Dongyue too."
"ah?"
"The place of Fengchan exploded."
"What blew up?"
"The Fengchan stone carved by Taizu himself exploded."
The hairs on the hair of all the officials stand on end.
Dongyue's enshrinement of Zen is a sign of destiny, and it is one of the symbols of the orthodoxy of humanity in Qi.
That Zen Stone, which was protected by the Qi State's national destiny and protected by super-grades of all dynasties, just exploded like this?
"It is said that there are floating dragons all over the world...that one."
"Which one?"
"corpse."
The officials were struck more and more numb by a series of shocking visions.
Dragon corpses floating all over the sea, wasn't it a folk prophecy a few years ago? It was a precursor to the destruction of the country.
"Did you hear about Zhongyue's handstand?"
"Ah? Can a mountain stand upside down?"
"It is said that the black dragon and the golden dragon fought in Zhongyue, and then the golden dragon swallowed the black dragon in one bite, and then Zhongyue stood upside down, and the world turned upside down..."
All officials suddenly fell silent.
This can no longer be said.
Suddenly, some officials looked at the summons plates one after another. Even the top-ranking officials who had always remained calm had their expressions change slightly.
Many officials moved their lips slightly, wanting to speak, but did not dare to say a word.
Soon, some courageous officials could no longer bear it.
"The road is broken in all directions, what a ruthless fortune-teller..."
"What is going on? The information I heard is not detailed enough."
"It is said that the black and white stones fell from the sky and covered all the roads in all directions of the capital. After that, the black and white stones disappeared, and then something strange happened. No matter whether they were going to the capital or leaving the capital, no one could see the road, and everything in front of them was vast.
Qunshan. Now the soldiers guarding the city are dumbfounded and don’t know whether the city gate should be opened or not."
"I've heard of similar methods. Taoism can never be used, because the imperial city has the power to dispel Taoism. It can only be life magic. But are they not afraid of backlash with life magic like this?"
"Is there a backlash on Destiny Mountain?"
"The important weapon of national destiny is not responding? Where is the old immortal Ming? Where is the old minister of the pavilion?"
"We're all waiting."
"That's not right. In the capital city, under the imperial city, how can life skills be..."
Outside the Shen'an Gate, the officials once again fell into a long silence.
When the time came, the city gate of Shendu City opened slowly as usual.
The people inside walked out of the city gate and looked at the vast mountains ahead with no road ahead, feeling at a loss in their hearts.
Although I heard some gossip behind the door and thought it was not that serious, but now...
Everyone returned silently.
Outside the city, all people entering the city were temporarily detained and their identities were verified before they could pass.
Han Anbo, relying on his identity as a night guard, entered the city unimpeded.
As he walked, he always felt that something was missing in the city. He frowned, thought for a while, and suddenly looked in the direction of Hubu.
The statues of the Five Gods disappeared.
Just before dawn, the five statues were still distantly echoing the four emperors outside.
Han Anbo stayed for a while and smiled.
The evil sect has finally made its final choice. Now the court will probably be in chaos.
Han Anbo turned his head and looked in the direction of Tianmen Pass.
I don’t know when the banner of King Xian’s army will arrive at the Divine Capital City.
Han Anbo kept contacting the few old friends in the city and entered the night guard to inquire about the news.
Under the familiar big locust tree, the night guards who had just finished breakfast gathered together and chatted.
"It's scary. It's so scary. I even went to see the city wall. The entire city of God's Capital has been sealed off..."
"Why is there no news from above?"
"Who knows."
"It stands to reason that as soon as the treasure of national destiny is released, what kind of evil spirits will not be swept away?"
"What if it's not a monster? That important weapon of national destiny has not been used on Tianming Mountain."
"Then what do we do?"
"What else can we do? When the time comes, we will be forced to the city wall and fight with King Xian's army... No, let them kill you."
"Is there really no other way?"
"Other way? King Xian's army has blocked the road. Just watch. In a few days, King Xian's army will reach the city. Then we'll see."
