Chapter 24: A Plea for Help (I)
It turns out that as long as you kneel, bow your head, and compromise, you can get everything you want, so why stand stubbornly?
"Xuan Zhuge Wolong Audience~!"
The high-pitched and long voice involuntarily reminds people of the cat that fell from the eaves at midnight, creepy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Ning Caichen couldn't remember how he had stepped into the palace, and he hadn't even thought about how he had been able to get rid of his fever overnight, and how he had been transported from the barren mountains to Kyoto in less time than 'one night'.
His body has been changed into a white shirt that is highly regarded by the literati, and his hair and beard have also been carefully taken care of by the maids.
Of course, this has to ignore the slightly sluggish expression on his face.
"Grass people Zhuge Wolong, see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live. ”
He didn't stand on the main hall for long, and in the 'Chu River Han Realm', which divided the ranks of civil and military officials, Ning Caichen bent his knees, lowered his head, and recited humility, like a dog wagging his tail and begging for mercy.
"Flat. ”
There was only one voice above the main hall, and the civil and military officials on both sides were as quiet as trees, and even the sound of breathing seemed to be deliberately suppressed, which additionally set off the majesty of the person on the throne who could not be looked at directly.
"Your Majesty, Emperor. ”
After thanking him, Ning Caichen got up from the ground, and from the time he walked into the main hall to the present, he didn't even glance at the throne, as if he was afraid of the majesty of the king, and it seemed that he was sick due to a problem with his neck.
"I have heard for a long time that Mr. Zhuge is talented, and now he has been recommended by the national teacher, and his bearing is really extraordinary. The former prince and the prince have passed away from illness for a long time, and now I intend to worship Mr. Zhuge as the prince's master and serve as the prince's master, I don't know what Mr. thinks?"
The voice on the throne was full of anger, and it was impossible to see that it was this emperor who was in charge of the world where the people were struggling today.
"How dare a minister disobey the will of heaven? ”
Ning Caichen has never been to the court, to be honest, he is actually just a show talent who has passed the township test, but at this moment, there is nothing wrong with his words and deeds, as if he is really Zhuge Wolong, as if he once stood here.
"Do you have any objections?"
The emperor on the throne asked, although Ning Caichen did not raise his head, but his mind already showed the appearance of this emperor waving his hand at many courtiers, while examining these courtiers with an imperceptible gaze.
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
All the mouths spoke in unison, and the hall was full of praises.
"If you have something to do, you have nothing to retreat~!"
When the sound receded, the voice that had been rumored to have Ning Caichen entering the hall sounded again.
Pudu Cihang did not come here today, and the civil and military officials did not have any music, and the early dynasty was dispersed like this.
"Retreat. ”
Among the hundred officials, Ning Caichen was the last to leave the main hall, and before leaving, he finally raised his head and looked at the throne.
The emperor's temples on the throne were gray, and he kept looking at Ning Caichen.
"Prince...... No, the future of this country is up to you, Mr. 'Zhuge '!"
The emperor's voice was very tired, as if he had exhausted all his majesty in the court, but hearing what he said still made Ning Caichen's heart tremble.
He accentuated the word 'Zhuge 'as if he was emphasizing something.
Ning Caichen saluted the emperor, turned around and left.
His steps were hurried, as if there was a giant beast behind him, eyeing him fiercely.

Mo Ye sat on the clouds for almost a day and a night.
Broken bones can grow back.
The blood that comes out can be replenished again.
But as he had learned when he sat down a day and night earlier, a rift in his mind was far more difficult to heal than a wound in his body.
"I must personally solve Pudu Cihang!"
In the clouds, Mo Xie opened his eyes, and two silver rays of light flashed in his eyes.
He took his pose, fell into the clouds, and made an oath.
He didn't go back to Yizhuang, and he didn't even glance in the direction of Yizhuang.
Because he knew that Purdue Cihang would not be there.
Because he knew that he shouldn't have gone there now.
Since he came into this world, he has been stirring up the wind and rain, and has caused many innocent people to die tragically because of him, and his partners who were still drinking and singing together yesterday have become dry bones today.
"Ah!!h
Mo Xie flew rapidly, and relying on the guidance of the post road, it only took him half an hour to arrive at a small town.
"How to get to Lanruo Temple?"
Omitting all the red tape, Mo Ye rushed directly into the official post and pulled out a person in official uniform.
"Bold!"
The town is still prosperous, and there is no reason why the kidnapping of an official in such a town would not provoke a reaction.
Someone rushed up, officials, people, knives, sticks, Mo Ye stood on the street at the moment, and the crowd surrounded Mo Ye three times inside and three times outside.
"Let go of Master Li!
Someone is making noise, someone is already rushing up.
Mo Xie didn't have the heart to entangle with these people, he jumped directly into the air, and the strong wind brought up between the actions swept away many sword soldiers.
"How to get to Lanruo Temple?"
He asked.
"You...... Which Lanruo temple are you talking about?"
The official had already been frightened when he was found out by Mo Xie, and the killing of public officials in broad daylight was no longer news, and he felt that he had encountered such a thing.
But after he was lifted into the air by Mo Ye, he realized that he was wrong.
The other party is obviously an immortal master with great mana, and the immortal master has never disdained to kill people by himself.
The people below immediately stopped scolding after seeing Mo Xie ascend into the air, and were replaced by bursts of exclamation.
"Immortals!"
The man who rushed to the front was the first to kneel, and he kept bowing to the sky, his expression was as if as long as this immortal opened his mouth, even if he was allowed to die, he would not say anything.
"The closest one around here. ”
Mo Xie will not be mistaken, in the original book, after Pudu Cihang kidnapped Zhiqiu Yiye and others, Ning Caichen rode his horse and galloped, and it only took less than three days to invite Yan Chixia and other strong reinforcements, and then connect with the fact that Ning Caichen was arrested and imprisoned when he first went to Lanruo Temple, Mo Xie could conclude that Lanruo Temple was near here, and he only regretted that he did not ask the specific location of Lanruo Temple from Ning Caichen's mouth earlier.
"East ...... East...... In the east! Two hundred miles to the east! There is a mountain range! Go inside, and on the third hill there is a ruined temple! I remember that temple is Lanruo Temple!"
Mo Xie is looking for the right person, as a local official, this Lord Li has long been familiar with the nearby mountains and rivers, topography, buildings and monuments, and at this moment, when Mo Ye asked, those sentences popped out of Lord Li's mouth like pouring beans.
However, even though the information he gave was already so detailed, Mo Ye still had something unclear.
"Where's the east side?"
Mo Xie asked, his face full of seriousness.
