Chapter Thirty-Six: The Dragon's Face in the Palace of Nourishing the Heart
Nanxuanguo, Taishi's Mansion, a man in black came to the mansion to take off the black cloth covering his face, and entered through the door of the mansion, walking in a hurry.
Under visual measurement, the man in black walked calmly and vigorously, moving forward with a very heroic and energetic posture. At first glance, you can tell that he is a kung fu person, but it is difficult to say that he is not a monk, it is not exact. On his left foot, it seemed that there was still something yellow, and if you looked closely, it turned out to be yellow mud, which showed that he came from outside the city and passed by the yellow mud gang at the gate of the capital.
On the shoulders of this man in black, there were some messy grass clippings, presumably he came from the mountain when he passed through the Yellow Nigang, and there happened to be a purple green mountain nearby, which must have come from this mountain.
The man in black went straight to the hall of the Taishi's Mansion, and saw that the Taishi was holding the official document in his hand, and he was reading and reading it carefully and carefully.
Seeing the arrival of the man in black, the Taishi immediately placed the official document on the desk, his action was fast and orderly, his brows furrowed slightly, and the official document that he originally held in his hand was placed together with the other official documents on the desk, and there was a difference.
The black-clothed people entered the hall, and before they could salute, the Taishi put down the things in his hand, a trace of anxiety and uneasiness flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly asked, "How is the situation?"
I saw the man in black bend over, and then arched his hand and said, "Master Yu, it's not good!"
The man in black was in a hurry, and his words were urgent, but he saw that a green tendon suddenly bulged on the Taishi's forehead, and he beat twice. When the man in black saw this scene, his heart was immediately in chaos, and he had a strong sense of unease, only feeling that his eyes were not looking up and down left and right, so he closed his eyes, and after the words were spoken, he was also afraid, and his hands and feet were a little trembling at the moment.
Taishi looked out of the window with exquisite carving and beautiful workmanship, as if he was thinking, and for a moment, he quickly twisted his head again, and with the rotation of his body, the silk brocade clothes on his body reflected a bright luster.
"Let's talk about the specific situation!" Taishi suddenly frowned deeply and said in a deep voice.
The black-clothed man trembled again, his waist bent lower, and at this time, a grain of grass clippings on his shoulder quietly fell to the floor of the hall of the Taishi Mansion Hall, and no one could detect it at all: "Forgive your subordinates for being stupid, in my opinion, Lu Fang's cultivation has improved a lot." ”
"How can you see it?" Taishi's expression was solemn, and he still said in a deep voice.
When the Taishi asked, the man in black paused, as if he had been prepared: "In the past few days, I have seen that the thief's aura has become more vigorous and strong, and his complexion has become even more radiant, which should be due to the great increase in his skill and cultivation." ”
"In just a few days, the cultivation has risen again?" Taishi said.
"The subordinates shouldn't be mistaken!" the black-clothed official said nervously.
"Smack"
Taishi raised his hand and slapped it down on the desk. In an instant, the official documents on the desk were scattered all over the place, and they became disorganized. Taishi's breathing fluctuated, and the silk on his body shook brightly a few times, obviously he was a little angry. Glancing at the desk, ignoring the official documents that fell to the ground, his eyes were sharp, like two knives, sharp and sharp, and he looked at the black-clothed official: "Are you sure!"
Under the tiger power of the Taishi, the head of the official was lowered, his legs trembled, his hands trembled, and with a pop, he knelt down, and then his voice trembled: "My subordinates are sure!"
"I've heard that he defeated the best of the eighteen disciples before, what is that person's name?"
"Liu Yimei, there are five disciples who respect him as a senior brother. "Minister.
"What kind of cultivation is Liu Yimei?"
"True Martial Realm!"
"How is it better than you?"
"The eighteenth disciples of the Void Dao are all superb in martial arts, and this Liu Yimei, as one of the best, although the realm is equivalent to that of his subordinates, I am afraid that his strength is not under his subordinates. The official carefully analyzed: "This is also the reason why we have never dared to break in rashly, but we have never had a chance to start, so we can only watch the thief's cultivation improve step by step." ”
"If you let all of you go out to encircle and suppress Lu Fang, at this moment, you can be sure. The Taishi suddenly rolled his eyes and stared at the black-clothed man evilly.
The man in black glanced up, and after meeting the gaze of the Grand Master, he hurriedly lowered his head to avoid it, and then said without hesitation: "This son's previous skill was in the True Martial Realm stage, and now it should be slightly improved." If you fight alone, your subordinates may not be able to do it. If we all go out and forgive him for being invincible with two fists and four hands, our subordinates are confident that they will take him down. ”
Hearing what the man in black said, the Taishi's eyes suddenly lit up.
Before, when Lu Fang was accepted as a disciple by Qingxuguan, Taishi's heart was a little uneasy, after all, Qingxuguan was a force outside the party, and even the lord of Nanxuan didn't dare to pick it out, it can be said that Lu Fang not only found a good home, but also found a good shelter.
On that day, when the official reported that Lu Fang had defeated Liu Yimei, the Taishi's already restless heart became anxious. Just imagine, Lu Fang can defeat the senior brother of the True Martial Realm, which means that Lu Fang at least has the strength of the True Martial Realm. There are fifty officials in the Taishi Mansion, including twenty in the True Martial Realm and thirty in the Linwu Realm. That is to say, in the Taishi Mansion, the highest force is only the True Martial Realm, since Lu Fang can defeat the martial artists of the True Martial Realm, then he will have a sneak attack, or assassination, which can already threaten the life of the Taishi.
Therefore, when the Taishi heard that Lu Fang's cultivation had improved again, his heart was even more disturbed than words.
Taishi is already in a hurry, and waiting any longer is tantamount to sitting still. In fact, a plan had already been brewed in his heart, but he didn't expect that such a day would really come, and he would be forced to an extreme road by the Grand Master of a country, and this day would come so quickly.
"You wait to go to the account room to pay some money, these days are good to recuperate, and listen to my dispatch and transfer at any time. The Taishi suddenly got up, revealing a very dark face.
"Subordinates retire!"
dismissed the officials, and the master immediately added another piece of clothing and ran towards the gate of the mansion.
"Master!" the janitor of the Taishi's Mansion bent down to greet him.
"Prepare the horse!" came to the gate of the mansion, and the master shouted.
"Yes!" the janitor: "Do you want to call Liu Gongzi?"
"No!"
Soon, a luxury carriage drawn by two sturdy horses, with the gentle control of the coachman, slowly stopped at the door of the Taishifu Mansion.
Without saying a word, or caring about his appearance, he climbed into the carriage and commanded the coachman, "Go to the palace immediately!"
"Drive!" As the coachman drove away, the two tall horses immediately ran up and drove all the way to the palace.
Last time, because Lu Fang met the saint at night, it was only because it was night, so there were very few people on the streets of the imperial city, and only a luxury carriage ran alone. This time, because it was daytime, there were many people of all kinds who came out to move, and the speed of the carriage was very fast, and the pedestrians on the side of the road avoided it one after another.
Taishi Liu Xiong dismounted in front of the palace gate, this is the rule of the palace, except for the emperor, no one else has the right to drive horses in the palace.
Walk quickly all the way to the Taihe Palace Yangxin Palace, Gonggong Liu is not here today, otherwise he will have a good greeting with Liu Xiong's family.
At the gate of the temple stood several groups of guards, all of whom were armed with swords, and they all looked in excellent spirits, and they did not hinder civil officials or salute any officials. There were two maids standing at the palace gate, and when they saw the master, they didn't dare to stop them, and they didn't have the right to report it.
A path went straight into the palace of nourishing the heart, only to see that the emperor was still sitting in front of the incense burner, and the lord of the country Li Yanzhao was drunk and dreamed of death for his immortal way.
After handing over the mundane affairs of the court, this Li Yanzhao basically stopped going to the court, and the Yangxin Palace became his daily living place.
Don't say that this Heart Nourishing Palace, although it is not as majestic as the Jinluan Treasure Palace, it is also very magnificent and well-lit.
As soon as he came to the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, behind his lord, Liu Xiong knelt on the ground with a puff and shouted: "Your Majesty, something is wrong!"
"Why is Liu Aiqing flustered?" Although Li Yanzhao was a little unhappy in his heart, he still said unhurriedly.
"According to the report of the spies, the thief Lu Fang has made great progress in his cultivation in Qingxu Guan, and he is afraid that he will threaten the emperor!" Liu Xiong's voice was urgent, and he also wanted to infect Li Yanzhao with his emotions, and he needed the authorization and support of his master.
"Cultivation is a great advance, threatening me, what is his cultivation now?" Li Yanzhao calmly threw out a series of question marks.
"Back to the emperor, in the middle of qi refining! "Liu Xiong.
"Middle stage of Qi refining?!" Li Yanzhao.
Liu Xiong is a mortal worldly person, and he doesn't know much about the realm level of monks, but judging from his detection of the spies, he thinks that Lu Fang's cultivation has reached a very high height.
When he heard that Liu Xiong reported Lu Fang's cultivation, Li Yanzhao was also surprised. It may be that this cultivation level is not very high, but in such a short period of time, it has only been more than a month, and it is really a bit magical and a little incredible to have practiced to the middle stage of qi refining so quickly.
"Are you sure?"
"The spies have found out, confirmed!" Liu Xiong.
Li Yanzhao has been cultivating the Immortal Dao for several years, and he is now at the peak of the Immortal Dao Incarnation Realm, and he has been trapped in the Creation Realm for more than ten years. As soon as he entered the creation, he was immersed in the realm of creation, and the realm of creation has always been what Li Yanzhao has dreamed of for these years, and his cultivation has not been able to mention it, and he has thought of many ways, but it has been ineffective, and he has been stuck in the transformation of the body. In the words of the national teacher, the Holy Lord is not good at the spiritual root, so the cultivation is slow and the difficulties are broken.
"In the middle stage of qi refining, he can't threaten the emperor!, but it is indeed surprising that he can do this in such a short period of time!" Li Yanzhao revealed his contempt for Lu Fang in his words, firstly, to seek truth from facts, and secondly, to stabilize his imperial prestige. But in the end, he still made a pertinent evaluation of Lu Fang's cultivation, and he also had a real sense of defense and fear for Lu Fang in his heart.
Li Yanzhao's heart was already unable to tolerate Lu Fang, he was surprised by Lu Fang's cultivation speed, and even had a trace of jealousy in his heart, thinking about how slow and arduous his cultivation was.
"This son can't stay!" After feeling the hostility and unhappiness in the master's heart, Liu Xiong boldly and decisively put forward the idea in his heart.
Although Li Yanzhao also had such a plan in his heart, he still pretended to be calm and high-minded, and thought about it for a while, and said lightly: "As long as you don't directly enter the Qing Void Concept, you can do whatever it takes!"
From this, it can be seen that Li Yanzhao's heart is in mind.
After thinking about his master's words for a while, Liu Xiong was instantly overjoyed, evil flashed in his eyes, and then he showed a dark smile:
"Emperor Xie!
......
With the authorization of his master, Liu Xiong has no worries, and he is more bold and presumptuous in dealing with Lu Fang.
The matter of Lu Fang can be said to have been provoked by Liu Xiong and his nephew Liu Tailai. Li Yanzhao has always been making trade-offs and choices, if he hadn't forced Lu Fang to Ziqing Mountain, there would not have been the current situation, and it would not have made Long Yan a little unhappy.
In Li Yanzhao's heart, he was already dissatisfied with Liu Xiong, the imperial master, and at the same time, he had to face this Lu Fang and make a decision against him.
