After arriving at a safe town, the messenger of joy called another fellow sect with the secret method of the sect. This fellow sect is exactly another of the five great kings: Vajra Yaksha Ming King. Compared with the outer thickness of Jundali Ming King, Vajra Yaksha Ming King is fine inside.
King Yaksha Ming seemed impatient and irritable, which was why he was not allowed to participate in the treasure hunt. When he heard that King Juntali Ming had been killed, King Yaksha Ming was shocked and angry, and rushed to Yuanjue Cave in Lingjiu Mountain to find Ran.
Deng confronted him and was persuaded by the messenger of joy.
The Joy Messenger secretly calculated: In that situation, he "joyed" Wu Ping of Chan Jiao, which was considered a mistake, but he also had his hands and feet cut off, and almost lost his life; and the death of Jun Dali Mingwang had nothing to do with Chan Jiao.
I am afraid that there is an inextricable relationship. If I can increase the leader's dissatisfaction with the teaching, then my fault will be lighter. It seems that it is necessary to use some words when I go back.
If Zhang Zixing knew what the Happy Messenger was thinking, he would probably risk "Brokeback Mountain" to kiss him a few times in public.
For Zhang Zixing, Bo Yuntian's "benefactor", the happy messenger was naturally grateful. Although it was heard from Qin Wan's mouth that Han Zhixian was not Xiaoyaozi's official Taoist companion, judging from the performances and attitudes of both parties
Look, there is obviously something interesting. They must have admired each other for a long time, but they have not expressed it yet. Strictly speaking, it was not a lie when they were on Jin'ao Island. Besides, compared with Xiaoyaozi's life-saving grace, this little thing cannot be taken into account at all.
, if you can come to China again in the future, I will repay you with a good life.
The happy messenger sincerely expressed his gratitude to Zhang Zixing, made an appointment to meet again, and then left with King Vajra Yaksha Ming.
Now that the treasure hunt was over, Zhang Zixing was worried that something might happen to Chao Ge, so he hurried back with Yuan Hong as quickly as possible.
Basically, the situation in Chaoge was relatively stable. Bingxue only went to court occasionally and said a few perfunctory words according to the procedures. Occasionally, some important government affairs were decided by Shang Qingjun and Fang Xi in secret. Kong Xuan was still in seclusion.
Enlightenment has not yet come out. In addition to controlling the phantom water beads, Nuba is also practicing the dual cultivation technique taught by the Yellow Emperor himself with Yinglong.
However, there was a piece of news that surprised Zhang Zixing secretly: Boyi failed in the exam!
Boyi Kaomeng was unjustly accused and knew that he had been tricked. He sought death many times in prison, but failed because of the strict guard. After being tortured, he became even more heartbroken and was expelled from Chaoge. Perhaps it was because of this.
During this period of peace of mind, Boyikao figured out a lot of things on the road, including his own injustice this time. Once he figured out this problem, more questions had a rough explanation, and the more he thought about it, the more he understood it.
, Boyikao felt more and more frightened and did not even dare to think about it any more. At this time, he had to rush back to Xiqi as soon as possible and report some things to his mother Taiji.
At this time, the convoy was suddenly attacked by unknown people. These people were vicious and left no one alive. Although Xiqi's guards tried their best, they could not resist it. In the end, all the people in the group, including Boyikao, were killed.
The place where the assassination occurred was on the road not far from Jiepai Pass. It was not yet the area directly under the jurisdiction of Dashang. When Boyikao was killed, Zhang Zixing was hunting for treasures in the South China Sea. Huang Gun, the commander-in-chief of Jiepai Pass, was the son of Huang Feihu.
Father, I didn’t dare to neglect at the moment. I immediately reported to Chao Ge and searched for the assassin everywhere. However, according to the situation at the scene, after the assassin succeeded, it seemed that he quickly evacuated and fled to the mountains without leaving any traces. It seemed that he was skilled in
The killer of this way.
Many rumors arose about Boyikao's death. Some said that Eshun, the son of the rebellious minister Nan Bohou, deliberately sent people to kill Boyikao in order to provoke a conflict between Chaoge and Xiqi. Some said that it was the woman who killed Boyikao.
Some people even said that the emperor suddenly felt that Boyikao's crime was unforgivable and could not withdraw his order, so he sent people to kill Boyikao. There were different opinions at the time. Of course, the last one was
The voice of the argument is the smallest. Boyi committed a serious crime in the examination. Even if he is the emperor, he is justified. There is no need to think or hesitate at all, let alone send people secretly. On the contrary, the first argument is the most likely. In this way, Xiqi
The rumors have become smaller.
Although Zhang Zixing was surprised by Boyikao's death, he didn't take it to heart. He just ordered Tianying to investigate secretly. What he was most worried about was Daji. At present, she was temporarily fascinated by the magical power of the magic water bead, but she had a relationship with the saint after all.
Contact. If Daji is in the formation and is summoned or contacted by Nuwa, with Nuwa's magic power, even if she is thirty-three days away, there is no guarantee that she will not notice anything abnormal.
Fortunately, according to his observations and surveillance in recent years, Daji would not contact Nuwa unless there was something important, and Nuwa herself would never take the initiative to summon Daji. But as the identity of Xiaoyaozi further emerged, it would be necessary in the future.
The days when he is not in the palace will be more frequent, and the time cannot be fixed. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected. What if the two parties get in touch at this time? He didn't think of any good way for a while. Could it be that, let
Daji also became his internal agent? This is too unrealistic...
For now, it is still virtual and real, and it is better to match the appearance of the true body with the effect of the phantom water beads.
Yuan Hong's harvest in the South China Sea was very rich. He got ten magic weapon bags alone. There were also many magic weapons and elixirs in them. Zhang Zixing called Yinglong and his wife and Fang Xi together for a spoils-sharing meeting. He chose
I picked up a defensive magic weapon and randomly selected a few more. Everyone was very happy at the moment.
After the "dividing the spoils" was over, everyone dispersed. Zhang Zixing was just about to go to the harem, when suddenly a chamberlain came to report: "There is a man called Shen Gongbao outside the imperial city asking for an audience."
Is Shen Gongbao here? Zhang Zixing hurriedly announced his entry into the palace and welcomed him out at the same time. He saw that Shen Gongbao was still wearing Taoist hemp shoes, holding a whisk in his hand, and dressed like an outsider. When he saw the emperor personally coming to greet him, he immediately
Jishou: "I am a poor man, but I am here to see Your Majesty."
Zhang Zixing showed an expression of surprise: "The Imperial Master is finally here! I can't imagine how miserable I am!"
Shen Gongbao didn't expect that the emperor directly called him the imperial master, and said hurriedly: "I am a poor man, how can I be called like this? Your Majesty, please take back the order!"
Zhang Zixing shook his head and said: "Taoist Priest, please don't shirk anymore! Taoist Priest and I made an appointment four years ago. The last time Chaoge was rampant with poison, all the officials and the people were in danger. Xiaoyaozi
I searched Huoyun Cave all over to no avail, but thanks to the guidance of the Taoist Master, I was able to solve the problem. Everyone from Chao Ge to the other led the Taoist Master to be rescued."
Shen Gongbao said humbly: "Pin Dao didn't do anything in this matter, he just pointed the direction. It's all the credit of the national teacher Xiaoyaozi."
Zhang Zixing said with a smile: "Why should Taoist priest be so modest? The national preceptor Xiaoyaozi came back to Chaoge and told the story. He highly praised Taoist Gao Yi and said that this matter was the result of Taoist priest. Could it be that Taoist priest blames me for having established a national preceptor?
I am a great businessman and civil servant, and I regard the left as my elder. Although Xiaoyaozi is in harmony with others and has great achievements, he can only be the right national master. Do you know why, Taoist Master?"
When Shen Gongbao heard that Xiaoyaozi had indeed come back and said many good things about him, he was secretly happy and pretended not to know, and asked: "I am ignorant and ignorant, and I don't understand the holy meaning."
Zhang Zixing solemnly said: "When I consecrated Xiaoyaozi as You Guoshi, I once said that the position of Zuo Guoshi will only be reserved for one person! That person is Taoist Shen! The national preceptor is the master of the great merchants in the world. I
His arms! Although his right arm is intact now, his left arm is missing. Could it be that the Taoist Master has the heart to let me lose all my limbs in this life?"
When Shen Gongbao heard the metaphor of arms, he couldn't help being shocked. Seeing the emperor's sincerity, he was moved and immediately prostrated: "I am a poor man but I am incompetent. To receive such courtesy from your majesty, I will not hesitate to do your best to your majesty!"
Zhang Zixing was overjoyed, helped Shen Gongbao up, and said happily: "The Imperial Preceptor is above the ministers, and he is the master of a country, so there is no need for such etiquette! I will arrange a secluded house for the Imperial Preceptor in Chaoge. From now on, I will not respect court etiquette, and there is no need to care about it."
Government, you can come and go freely, you just need to leave a way of contacting me, and you can help me solve my doubts when I need advice."
Shen Gongbao has always been a small character who was discriminated against in the teachings. When he heard that today he was given such high-level treatment, he was moved and excited. Zhang Zixing knew that Shen Gongbao's diplomatic ability was extremely strong, and now he finally succeeded in tying him up.
Dashang was also very happy on the chariot. He took Shen Gongbao's hand and walked into the hall together, ordering someone to give him a seat.
"Now that the Great Shang and the Imperial Guards have all returned to their posts, I can rest easy!"
Shen Gongbao was very fond of the You Guoshi Xiaoyaozi and asked the emperor for some relevant information. Zhang Zixing told him that You Guoshi had recently gone to the South China Sea and had not returned yet. Shen Gongbao knew clearly that Xiaoyaozi's trip must be related to that person.
Kunlun Jingyu was related, but I heard that the Jingyu eventually fell into the hands of his fellow disciple Ran Deng Taoist.
Zhang Zixing asked: "I wonder if the Imperial Master came to Chaoge today. What can he learn from it?"
"I am here because I have an important matter." Shen Gongbao said seriously: "Back then, Chaoge was hit by a poisonous disaster. May I ask, Your Majesty, what kind of poison it was?"
Seeing Shen Gongbao being so serious, Zhang Zixing thought for a while and told the story of Yue King Qi's rebellion that day, and emphasized that there were two men and one woman who were cultivators, but they colluded with Yue King Qi to conspire against him, and almost caused him, the emperor, to be poisoned.
Later, all three demons were killed by the imperial master, and before his death, the red-robed Taoist took advantage of people's unpreparedness and planted poison, causing disaster to everyone in Chaoge. Only then did he ask for medicine from Huoyun Cave.
After Shen Gongbao asked about the appearance of the red-robed Taoist, he showed a look of surprise: "Sure enough, it turns out that what Chao Ge suffered that day was a plague! This Taoist's name is Zhu Tianlin, and he is a disciple of Lu Yue, the famous Qi Refiner in Kowloon Island. Lu Yue said
The method is powerful, a hundred times better than mine, and he is ruthless and well versed in the art of plague and poison. He has four disciples, Zhou Xin, Li Qi, Zhu Tianlin, and Yang Wenhui, who practice with him. However, Zhu Tianlin has been away from home for a long time, so he has doubts in his heart.
. Now it is calculated that his disciple died in Chaoge, and Lu Yue wants to seek revenge..."
Zhang Zixing was shocked. What Shen Gongbao brought was indeed a very important piece of information. Zhu Tianlin alone had caused a plague to Chaoge. If Lu Yue had taken action in person, it would have been even more difficult to deal with. Although Shennong had given the pill as a gift,
But after all, there are only a few pills, which cannot cope with multiple disasters. Besides, pills are dead and people are alive. If Lu Yue develops a plague like Shennong that pills cannot control, and the Fire Cloud Cave is closed,
There really is no way to heaven and no way to earth.
Zhang Zixing said anxiously: "At this time, the lives of our people are at stake. Please help me get rid of this misfortune!"
Shen Gongbao said: "Your Majesty, can you recall that Daoist fellow Xiaoyaozi? I'm afraid he will have to meet Lu Yue or have a fight with Lu Yue to let Lu Yue calm down before the matter can be settled."
Want to fight with Lu Yue? Zhang Zixing doesn't want to take this risk. Lu Yue is profound in Taoism, has three heads and six arms, and has many magic weapons and biochemical weapons. In the original work, the combined efforts of everyone in the teachings failed to defeat him, and in the end they only relied on the famous
He was able to sneak attack on him only by using the magic whip to recognize people and concealed weapons. Zhang Zixing did not want to face such an enemy. Even if Kong Xuan was asked to teach Lu Yue a lesson, it would only aggravate the hatred.
Zhang Zixing looked at the divine light flashing in Shen Gongbao's eyes, and his heart moved. He shook his head and said: "Don't say that the Imperial Master Xiaoyao is not here. If he were in Chaoge, I would not allow the Imperial Master to take this risk. The Imperial Master killed Zhu Tianlin because of
My safety is also for the country and the country. Lu Yue's pursuit of revenge is a personal grudge. How can I let the imperial master go and fight in danger? If something goes wrong, I will be in trouble for the rest of my life! If it were you, Shen Guoshi, I would be the same.
So! I would like to go to see Lu Yue in person and discuss it with him."
Shen Gongbao originally wanted to try it, but when he heard the words "If it were you, Master Shen, I would be the same", he couldn't help but be moved. Such an emperor is the one truly worthy of following! He then sighed: "Your Majesty is so kind and righteous.
He is a man of good temper! Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Lu Yue has friendship with Ping Dao, and with Ping Dao here, there will never be any dispute over this matter. This time Ping Dao came and specially invited fellow Taoist Lu Yue, who was also in the imperial palace
Waiting for the order outside the city, this man is ruthless and arrogant, but he is also a loyal man. Your Majesty, as long as you treat him with courtesy and explain the truth, you will be able to resolve this grudge."
When Zhang Zixing heard that Lu Yue himself had arrived, he was shocked again. He immediately followed Shen Gongbao's words and announced that Lu Yue had entered the palace.
Lu Yue entered the palace in response to the imperial edict, and Zhang Zixing secretly observed his appearance. He was wearing a scarlet Taoist robe, with a fierce look on his face, and a third eye between his forehead, which made him look particularly ferocious.
Lu Yue bowed his head and said: "Lyu Yue, the Qi Refiner from Kowloon Island, has met Your Majesty."
Zhang Zixing said politely: "The Taoist priest has a unique appearance and extraordinary Taoist skills. I have also admired his name for a long time. If you come, I will give you a seat."
Lu Yue was not polite, thanked the emperor, and sat down.
Zhang Zixing exchanged a few words of greetings, then suddenly said something shocking: "The Taoist priest came to Chao Ge today, is it because he wants to take my life?"
