As soon as the demon path master left, Ouchi Zhong suddenly became deserted, and there was no longer a scene of waves and mana. Gradually, from several palaces, there were eunuchs and palace maids who probed their brains, and when they saw that the battle had subsided, they were immediately overjoyed, and some people hurriedly ran to the palace to report to the prince.

The prince was also overjoyed when he got the news, and it was not a gratifying thing to have a qi practitioner fighting at his doorstep. But he didn't care about the identity of the prince, and he didn't go to see Ye Xiangtian and other righteous monks in person, so he still sat upright. Wu Lao said: "It seems that the master of the Demon Dao was repelled by the Xuanmen, but the Xuanmen will not interfere in the affairs of the world's military disasters, and the rebellion of King Jing will depend on His Royal Highness himself." If the old Taoist expects it to be good, the monk will come to see His Highness later and ask for the position of national teacher. ”

The prince said: "The position of the national teacher is to be left with Wu Lao, how can he let others?" Wu Lao stroked his beard and smiled: "The prince has a heart, and Lao Dao is very grateful." It's just that the position of the national teacher is a must-get, and the old way doesn't dare to be greedy for ink. His Royal Highness has appointed a disciple of Zhengyi as the national teacher, and the luck of the other door will be connected with the Ming Dynasty, and His Royal Highness can order him to contribute to pacify the chaos of King Jing. This is a plan to kill two birds with one stone, it is very possible, and the old man does not want to meet those few people, so he will retire. ”

The prince was about to get up to see him off, but Wu Lao had left and did not know where to go. Outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, the righteous path each received magical powers, Ye Xiangtian's big sleeves fluttered, and he fell from the ninth sky, and first exchanged a few words with Shen Chaoyang. Shen Chaoyang said with a smile: "Since the farewell of Lingjiang, Brother Ye's demeanor is still the same, and even Senior Brother Ling has a glimpse of the opportunity of the Great Dao, and the Taixuan Sect is really admirable." ”

Ye Xiangtian closed his eyes tightly and said, "Brother Shen entered the customs and broke the mirror, and the shackles were gone, which is gratifying." He had a cold temperament and didn't say much, Shen Chaoyang didn't care, and he greeted Shang Qi and Qiao Huaiqing, and finally confessed: "I have come to meet the prince of Daming on the order of the teacher." How about tonight, senior brothers, please still narrate in the Baiyun Temple outside the city?"

Baiyun Temple is the lower courtyard of the Qingxu Dao Sect, and Shang Qi summoned Ling Chong and others there to discuss the matter of Shark Jiao's entry into Beijing. Shen Chaoyang is a senior disciple of Zhengyi Sect, and the future Sect is in charge, but others are not suspected of trespassing, but feel that it should be taken for granted.

Shang Qi nodded and said: "It's rare for all factions of my righteous path to gather, there must always be a rule for the affairs of the Ming royal family, and tonight the poor road is waiting for you in the Baiyun Temple!" After saying that, he turned around and left, and Qiao Huaiqing also said goodbye. Shen Chaoyang smiled, and really took Qin Jun to the Heart Cultivation Palace, asking to see the crown prince of the dynasty. Thinking that the prince had already instructed, the eunuch in front of the palace did not dare to slack off, and after Tong Bing, he respectfully welcomed the two in.

Ling Chong stepped forward to greet this fellow senior brother, Ye Xiangtian showed a smile on his face, and said, "Senior brother, you are very good!" Ling Chong smiled, and the two senior brothers stood side by side, feeling very warm. He was able to enter the Tao and cultivate the truth, but it can be said that thanks to Ye Xiangtian's recommendation, he has great respect for this eldest brother in his heart, and he has not seen him for several years, and he always thinks that he has a lot to say, but when he comes to face to face, he just smiles innocently.

Ye Xiangtian said: "Let's go with me to see the old man first!" Go to Wenyuan Pavilion to see Zhang Shouzheng first. He and Zhang Shouzheng can be described as a gentleman's friend, sympathetic to each other, and once had the intention to lead him into the Tao to practice, but Zhang Shouzheng said: "Cultivating the Tao and cultivating the truth, but seeking the ascension of my own family and life is not what I want." The ambition of this life is to seek the blessing of the common people and the world. "Resolutely devoted himself to the imperial examination, became an official, and worked diligently for decades to seek benefits for the common people.

Ye Xiangtian admired this very much, otherwise his eyesight was so high, there were countless people who wanted to apprentice, and if he wanted to get started, he had to go through strict inspection and assessment, and how could he easily accept Zhang Yiru as an apprentice? The two arrived in front of Wenyuan Pavilion, Zhang Yiru knew that the master was there in person, and informed Naizu that Zhang Shouzheng was overjoyed and greeted him in person.

The two of them haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and they talked about the old days in front of Wenyuan Pavilion. Zhang Shouzheng sighed: "I haven't seen him for more than ten years, Brother Ye still looks like a twenty-something, but the younger brother is too old. "Ye Xiangtian's mana is profound, and he has a good face, standing in one place is like a father and son.

Ye Xiangtian said: "The fate of the Great Dao is only in the heart, how can it be dry? Zhang Shouzheng laughed and sighed: "The younger brother has been walking on thin ice for decades, and he thinks that the way of governing the country of the Qi family has been perfected. What's more, now that the city is under siege, it is unknown whether it will fall. ”

Ye Xiangtian said: "I want to stay in the Jingshi for a few days, and I will live in the Virtuous Brother's Mansion and teach the same kid swordsmanship by the way." As for King Jing's siege of the city, when I came, I saw an army of 100,000 rolling in from the southeast, under the banner of the Chang family. ”

Zhang Shouzheng's eyes lit up, and he said with great joy: "The Chang family is the prince's mother's family, and he has previously issued three edicts ordering him to come to King Qin, and he has finally arrived." I'm going to tell the prince! Brother Ye will stay for the time being, and the younger brother will come back in the evening to ask for advice. "Rushing to the temple of nourishing the heart.

At this time, the crown prince was talking with Shen Chaoyang's brother about the national teacher, Qin Jun naturally would not say that he had helped Taizu raise troops thousands of years ago, only that Cao Jing was originally a demon, and rebellion and rebellion were expected. Zhengyi is in charge of the sect and follows the true people to ask the prince for the position of a national teacher, lead the world to practice qi, and purify the government and the opposition. The crown prince originally wanted to keep the position of national teacher for Wu Lao to use to envelop him, but he was instructed by Wu Lao, so he naturally agreed immediately.

At this time, the old eunuch returned to Zhang Shouzheng to ask for a meeting, and the prince still relied on this old man of the Shoufu Pavilion very much, and immediately summoned him. Zhang Shouzheng walked into the hall, and regardless of the senior brother Shen Chaoyang who got up to give a salute, he shouted: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the old minister has received the news that the division of King Chang Jiaqin is coming, and it is a good opportunity to break the enemy." Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go to the city in person, encourage the soldiers, and then fight with King Qin's army inside and outside, and the rebels can be broken in one go!"

Qin Jun saw that the white-haired old minister was full of excitement and red light, pointing at the country, and couldn't help but nod secretly. Shen Chaoyang smiled silently. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince frowned and was silent, and the old eunuch Huo Ran beside him shouted: "Zhang Shoufu, the emperor is sick, the prince is the prince, this matter is related to the safety of His Royal Highness the Prince, whether it is a long-term consideration......"

Before the words fell, Zhang Shouzheng shouted loudly and said: "Ignorant eunuch slave shut up! This is a heaven-sent opportunity, if you hesitate again, the Ming Dynasty and the society will not exist! You eunuchs flatter the saint on weekdays and corrupt the dynasty, the old man has long been displeasing to the eye, and if you dare to say more to interfere in politics, and it is not good to see the sword in the old man's hand!"

The righteous words were loud, and the old eunuch's face was red with self-suffocation, but he didn't dare to reply a word. Shen Chaoyang smiled, a sword light flashed in his sleeve, and with a slight turn, he had already beheaded the old eunuch to death, and the corpse fell to the ground. The palace maid in the palace screamed repeatedly, and the prince frowned, his face turned pale, but he didn't say a word.

Zhang Shouzheng glanced at the corpse of the old eunuch, his eyes were fixed on Shen Chaoyang's face, and asked, "I don't know what this Taoist chief is called? Why do you kill people in the palace?" Shen Chaoyang took the sword light and said: "Shen Chaoyang, a disciple of the first sect of the poor Dao. I came to see the prince today to seek the position of national teacher for my junior brother Qin Jun. This eunuch is talking about interfering in politics in order to kill him. It is a sin to frighten the prince and the elders. ”
