At this time, the Zhizhou Mansion, as the palace of Zhao Dongting, was naturally heavily guarded. The main gate alone was guarded by dozens of forbidden soldiers.

Further inside, every three paces, two Praetorian guards stood opposite each other on either side of the road. And in the bright and dark places, there are many sentry posts, and the arrows are cold.

Outside, several teams of guards could be seen patrolling inside.

And at night, the guards are even tighter.

Liu Hongyi took Murong Chuan and others to the Zhizhou Mansion, but was blocked outside by the guards.

The centurion on duty knew Liu Hongyi, but he didn't know Murong Chuan and the others.

He saluted Liu Hongyi and said, "General Liu! ”

Then he looked at Murong Chuan and the people from Xiulin Castle next to him with puzzled eyes.

Liu Hongyi said: "This is the lord of Murong Fort in Xiulin Fort, he has treasures to present to the emperor, and this general will take him in." ”

The centurion hesitated slightly, and said: "If General Liu leads people, it is naturally possible, but the palace stipulates that no blades can be brought into the palace!" ”

Murong Chuan nodded with a smile beside him, and said politely, "I can go in with Xiao Wu." ”

As he spoke, he took off the long sword he was wearing at his waist and handed it to the attendant next to him, "You wait here for the old man." ”

The attendant hurriedly took the sword, "Yes." ”

The indifferent young man named Xiao Wu also took off his sword and handed it to his entourage, with a grim expression. There were no mood fluctuations in his eyes from beginning to end, and the fish intestine sword was always in his arms.

The centurion looked at the fish intestines with the hilt of the sword in his arms and said, "This ......"

Liu Hongyi said: "This is the treasure that the castle lord has offered, let him bring it in, with General Ben as a guarantee, nothing will happen." ”

This time, he joined forces with Xiulimburg to exterminate the pirates, and he had great trust in Xiulimburg.

Murong Chuan was still smiling on his face, but he was sneering in his heart. In his opinion, Liu Hongyi is a fool who is used by him and still doesn't know it.

Although the centurion knew the rules, he couldn't refute Liu Hongyi's face, so he had to say: "That's good!" ”

Then he waved his hand and told the Praetorian Guards to get out of the way.

Murong Chuan arched his hand at the centurion, and Xiao Wu and Xiao Wu followed Liu Hongyi inside.

Rules are dead, but people are alive.

The centurion looked at their backs and thought to himself, General Liu's character is well known to both the government and the opposition, and since he is offering treasures, the emperor must not blame himself.

In this way, Murong Chuan and that little five actually followed Liu Hongyi directly to the council hall.

Because they had been delayed in the barracks for some time before, now the hundred officials had gathered outside the palace, and they would enter the hall when the time came for the morning dynasty.

Seeing that Liu Hongyi came with two outsiders, and one of them was still holding a sword in his hand, Su Liuyi asked, "General Liu, who are these two?" ”

Murong Chuan was already the first to greet Mu Kangxun, "Lord Zhizhou." ”

Mu Kangxun was talking to someone, but when he heard him shouting, he turned around and saw that it was Murong Chuan, and said in confusion: "Lord Murong Castle, why are you here?" ”

He personally sent a plaque to Xiulinburg before, and he was warmly entertained, and his impression of Murong Chuan, a hero, was also extremely good.

Liu Hongyi introduced: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is Murong Chuan, the castle lord of Xiulin Castle who assisted our army in exterminating the pirates. ”

The ministers who looked at Murong Chuan were all a little surprised.

They hadn't seen Murong Chuan, but they hadn't heard the words "Xiulinbao" these days. The famous righteous sect!

At that moment, several ministers bowed their hands to Murong Chuan, which could be regarded as greetings.

This is naturally extremely polite, if it weren't for the imperial court falling to Leizhou, with their official position, they wouldn't have to pay attention to Murong Chuan, the lord of the district.

Although Xiulinburg is very prestigious in the rivers and lakes of Leizhou, it cannot be on the formal table after all.

In ancient times, officials were officials, and the people were people, and the division was very clear, even if the people had the ability, they were also the people. Officials do not casually get close to ordinary people.

Officials have official authority, that's it.

Murong Chuan also consciously lowered his posture and was deeply moved, "I've seen all of you. ”

At this time, Zhao Dongting's figure had appeared outside the courtyard wall of the Council Hall.

The ministers didn't care about greetings, and hurriedly walked to the council hall.

Liu Hongyi said to Murong Chuan: "The castle lord will wait here first, wait for me to be enlightened, and then come out to announce your entry." ”

Murong Chuan nodded, and then he and Xiao Wu were taken to the side of the council hall by the eunuch.

Seeing the group of ministers rushing in, Zhao Dongting walked slowly with Li Yuanxiu, and a few hints of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

Of course, he could see that the ministers didn't particularly care about him. thinks that he is also a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes, if it weren't for the assassination of Zhao Dongting, he wouldn't have come to the Zhizhou Mansion to be treated so coldly.

And Zhao Dongting didn't notice Murong Chuan and Xiao Wu, and took Li Yuanxiu directly into the hall.

The ministers fell to their knees, and the mountain shouted long live.

After a while, Liu Hongyi played: "Your Majesty, Murong Chuan, the lord of Xiulinbao Castle, is waiting outside the palace with a fish intestine sword, and wants to present it to the emperor. ”

Fish intestine sword?

Even Zhao Dongting also knew the name of this sword.

Xuanyuan, Zhanlu, Chixiao, Tai'a, Qixing, Longyuan, Ganjiang, Moxie, Fish Intestine, Chunjun, Chengying, these ten ancient sharp weapons, in later generations were evaluated as the top ten famous swords of ancient times, and were recorded in many ancient books and legends. He didn't expect that when he traveled to the Southern Song Dynasty, he would be able to see the fish intestines in it.

At that moment, Zhao Dongting was also a little curious in his heart, and said, "Announce him in." ”

In later generations, there was no trace of the top ten famous swords, and of course he wanted to see if the fish intestines in the top ten famous swords lived up to their name.

"Yes."

Liu Hong made a gesture, walked outside the hall, and said to Murong Chuan, who was waiting on the left fence: "Lord Murong Fort, the emperor announced that you should go in." ”

"Thank you, General."

Murong Chuan looked at Liu Hongyi again, and then lowered his voice and said to Xiao Wu beside him: "Think about your sister." ”

These words seem prosaic, but they seem extremely abrupt to say at this time. Moreover, Murong Chuan's voice was extremely indifferent.

Xiao Wu's ancient and modern Wubo's eyes suddenly fluctuated at this moment, and the fish intestine sword in his arms was tightly armed, nodding lightly, and did not speak.

Then the two followed Liu Hongyi to the main hall and knelt on the ground, "Murong Chuan and Xiao Wu knock to see the emperor." ”

Zhao Dongting let the two of them get up, looked deeply at Murong Chuan, who had a strand of white hair in the middle of his forehead, and said, "Lord Murong Castle, let's meet again." ”

Murong Chuan raised his head, looked at Zhao Dongting, and said, "It is Murong Chuan's honor to have the honor to see the emperor's dragon face again. ”

He was not surprised, because he saw Zhao Dongting outside Xiulin Fort that night, and as soon as Zhao Dongting left, Murong Hao told him Zhao Dongting's identity.

He hadn't seen Zhao Dongting, but Murong Hao had seen it on Jiezhou Island. Murong Hao was the one who led the assassination of Zhao Dongting at this moment.

Zhao Dongting nodded lightly, and said, "I heard General Liu say that the Lord of Murong Fort is here to sacrifice the fish intestine sword?" ”

"Exactly."

Murong Chuan showed a smiling face, pointed to Xiao Wu next to him, and said: "This is my Xiulin Fort disciple Xiao Wu, he accidentally found the pearl dusty fish intestine sword in the pirate lair, I waited in the castle to recognize it was the ancient famous sword fish intestine, I didn't dare to steal it, so I hurriedly rushed over to offer the emperor." ”

"The whole of Xiulimburg is full of loyal and righteous men......"

Zhao Dongting pretended to sigh, and then said to Li Yuanxiu next to him: "Father-in-law go and bring it to me." ”

He had some doubts about Xiulinburg after all, so naturally he would not be stupid enough to go down and get the sword by himself.

Seeing this, Murong Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, but he still stood next to Xiao Wu, and he didn't see any movement.

Li Yuanxiu went to the front of Xiao Wu, took the fish intestine sword from Xiao Wu's hand, walked back to Zhao Dongting's side, and opened the cloth. The fish intestine sword was revealed in front of everyone's eyes.

The eyes of the ministers were instantly captured by the fish intestine sword full of ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

This sword looks out of the ordinary.

Zhang Shijie said with emotion: "I heard that the fish intestine is the sword casting master Ou Yezi mining the tin of Chijin Mountain and the copper of Ruoye River, which was struck by rain and lightning, and was made of the essence of heaven and earth. ”

After that, he arched his hand and said, "Congratulations to the emperor for getting this treasure." ”

Zhao Dongting's eyes were also attracted by the fish intestine sword. This fish intestine is indeed far from being comparable to the ancient swords he had seen in his previous life.

It's just that he doesn't think that this fish intestine sword is the tin of Chijin Mountain and the copper of Ruoye River, which has been struck by rain and lightning and refined by the essence of heaven and earth. It is unrealistic to use thunder and lightning to refine swords, looking at the color and luster of the fish intestines, Zhao Dongting thought to himself, this should be forged from some kind of extraterrestrial meteoric iron. I just don't know how the texture compares to modern alloys.

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

And just when everyone's hearts were attracted by fish intestines, Murong Chuan suddenly shouted in the hall.

Zhao Dongting turned his head to look, only to see a faint and cold light shooting towards him, and he was already approaching.

The chill grew wider and wider in his pupils.

Li Yuanxiu was holding the fish intestines in both hands next to him, also tilting his head, his eyes were instantly frozen, but he didn't have time to react.

"Phew!"

Extremely faint sounds.
