But at this moment, it's just that the princess is staying alone in the Jinhai Inn on Saturday and Saturday, and the second prince Zhou Lei is in Dazai's mansion.

In the conference hall of Dazaifu, Chen Guo Dazai Guan Bi sat in the main seat, and the guest seat was the second prince Zhou Lei.

Also present was Bian Chang, the secretary of Chen Guofu's ministry, who was Guan Bi's confidant and strategist.

Although they are the same product, Guan Bi and Xuan Zhongchun still have a very advantage, and most of the chief officials of the six departments are Guan Bi's forces.

Fortunately, Xuan Zhongchun still inserted some people, and the Xuanjia family in the army had obvious advantages.

Guan Bi met with Zhou Lei, the second prince of Zhou Guo, and the topic of discussion was the meeting with Emperor Chen Guo today.

What made Guan Bi depressed was that when he was reporting to the emperor about his relationship, Xuan Zhongchun came over, and in the end, the two had a big quarrel, and there was no result.

If it weren't for Xuan Zhongchun's trouble, he would probably say that the emperor would be moved.

On the day when the sixth princess came to Jinzhou, he had seen it, and with that look of pity when I saw it, Guan Bi wanted to persuade the emperor Chen Liufeng to accept her as a concubine, but he let Xuan Zhongchun, the puppet, destroy it.

"Lord Dazai, I don't know if I talked about peace in front of the emperor today, and my Zhou Kingdom is sincere!"

"Don't hide it from Your Highness, today the old man went to the palace to meet the emperor, just to say that this is a kiss, but it is not a coincidence. ”

As he spoke, Guan Bi touched his short beard.

He looked to be in his thirties, with long eyebrows and a round face, and he looked like a rich man, very kind, but his tone was very rapid.

"Doesn't the emperor approve of this?" Zhou Lei's face showed a faint look of disappointment.

"This matter is really unfortunate, just when I reported this matter to the emperor, my opponent Xuan Zhongchun, the dean of the Academy, came, and as soon as he stirred up the situation, the matter could not continue. ”

Speaking of this, Guan Bi looked at Bian Chang, who was sitting at the bottom, and said: "Xuan Zhongchun, this puppet, as long as he proposes anything, he is against it, which is really infuriating." ”

This Bian Chang didn't speak, just smiled faintly.

Guan Bi has been with him for a long time, and looking at his smile, he knows that Bian Chang has an idea, but it is inconvenient to say it here.

"Dazai-sama, it seems that this matter is hopeless, so my brother and sister will return to Zhou Kingdom one day. ”

Zhou Lei is not an easy person, and he made a move to retreat.

He wants to see what Guan Bi's attitude is, and Zhou Guo relies on Guan Bi to act this time, which is to give conditions.

"Your Highness, don't worry, the emperor's attitude is not clear for the time being, I will try to convince him, His Royal Highness still needs to wait in Jinzhou for a few days. ”

"I will follow Dazai-sama's orders, and please work hard for the interests of the two countries, and I will wait for good news at the Golden Sea Inn. ”

Zhou Lei said the word interest very seriously, of course, only Guan Bi could hear it.

What is this benefit, it is a baby pill, and it is an indispensable pill for advanced yuan babies.

How difficult it is to advance to the Yuan Infant Realm in the late stage of Jindan, not only does it need to be cultivated, but it also needs the assistance of pills, and the Infant Raising Pill can double the chance.

And the materials required for this Infant Pill are extremely precious, and the refining is extremely complicated, and it can only be refined by the alchemists of the Yuan Infant Realm.

There are very few in the Yuan Infant Realm, and there are even fewer alchemists in the Yuan Infant Realm.

Anyway, Chen Guo didn't have a Yuanying Alchemist, so this Infant Pills were precious, and they were no longer something that could be exchanged for spirit stones and magic weapons.

Zhou Guo's price is really a huge temptation for Guan Bi, because Guan Bi is already the ninth layer of Jindan.

Guan Bi wanted to get this pill so much, he once thought about killing this Zhou Lei and directly snatched the pill.

But he couldn't be sure that this pill was on Zhou Lei's body, if it wasn't there, it would be worth the loss.

After sending Zhou Lei away, Guan Bi came to the study, and Bian Chang also followed.

After the two of them sat down, they didn't have to worry about asking, Bian Chang took the initiative to speak: "My lord, Xuan Zhongchun has always been your enemy, my lord, it is better to get rid of it, so as to save my daily worries." ”

"The old man really wants to get rid of it, but there is no other way. ”

Guan Bi sighed, the two families have been fighting for thousands of years, and they both have the heart to get rid of each other, but it is difficult to do it.

"We can't get rid of it, but what about the emperor?"

Bian Chang was still smiling, smiling extremely treacherously.

"Oh, tell me, how to borrow the emperor's hand?"

Bian Chang did not continue to show off, but said directly: "The emperor's delay in attacking the Yi State must be because he does not trust the adults and Xuan Zhongchun, or to put it seriously, he is a little suspicious of you." I suspect that you are colluding with Zhou Guo, and you are suspected of having a private affair with Yi Guo. ”

"What can I do?"

Guan Bi has been in the officialdom for a long time, so he naturally knows this truth, which emperor is not suspicious, and which emperor can fully trust a certain courtier, suspicion is inevitable.

"Let's make the emperor's suspicion of Xuan Zhongchun worse, so that even if the emperor doesn't abolish the Xuan family, at least he won't listen to his opinion anymore, wouldn't this be good for adults?"

"Tell me, what's your idea?"

What Guan Bi doesn't like is that Bian Chang goes around the bend like this, and he never gets to the topic.

"Since Xuan Zhongchun has been sheltering Yi Guo, why don't we find someone to pretend to be Yi Guo's spy and frame him, in doing so, I am afraid that the adults will have to spend some money. ”

"We are all cultivators, money is just something outside the body, as long as I can bring down Xuan Zhongchun, I am willing to pay the price. ”

Guan Bi and Bian Chang were discussing the matter of Yi Guo's spies, but they didn't know that Yi Guo's biggest spy was sitting in the Xuanjia Jixian Pavilion, trying to deal with them, and the so-called calculators would eventually be calculated.

Since Xuan Wen said that the two people living in the Jinhai Inn were the prince and princess of the Zhou Kingdom, and they were the relatives of the Zhou Kingdom, Yi Jiuxiao was interested.

Now that he knew about it, he couldn't let it happen.

"Lord, does the emperor already know about these two people in Jinzhou?"

Xuan Zhongchun frowned, as if he was thinking about something, and replied after a while: "It's hard to say, when I met the emperor, the emperor was already talking to Guan Bi, as for whether Guan Bi told the emperor about the two of them at the Jinhai Inn, it is difficult to be sure." ”

"I originally wanted to suggest that the Lord report the matter of the two Zhou Guo at the Jinhai Inn to the emperor, and convict Guan Bi of colluding with the Zhou State, but I am not sure if he told the emperor in advance, this method will not work. ”

"Is there any other way?"

Xuan Zhongchun raised his head and looked at Yi Jiuxiao, he vaguely felt that this was a breakthrough, but how to break through, he couldn't think of it for a while.

"If I lure one of them out of the city, will the adults be sure to hold it?"

Yi Jiuxiao decided that the army was in danger, and at this critical moment, there was no room for delay.

"Xuan Wen, what kind of cultivation are these two people?"

Xuan Zhongchun did not answer Yi Jiuxiao immediately, but went to ask Xuan Wen.

"The head of the family, according to Xuanwen's view, these two princes are the early stage of Jindan, and the sixth princess is the late stage of foundation building, which is completely consistent with the information in the museum. ”

Xuan Zhongchun nodded and looked at Yi Jiuxiao: "If I make a move, there is no problem with holding them, but do you have a way to lure them out of the city?"

"Song Yi has a way, but it's inconvenient to say it now, you just need to tell me where I can act outside the city. ”

On the morning of the second day, Yi Jiuxiao walked out of the Jixian Pavilion alone, walked along the Jixian Pavilion to the Jinhai Inn, and slipped until he reached the vicinity of the entrance of the Jinhai Inn.

But he didn't go in, but set up a hexagram stall on the side of the nearest street at the Jinhai Inn.

In Yi Jiuxiao's previous life, in the Great Song Dynasty, word counting and divination was the most common profession, and many down-and-out scholars set up stalls to calculate hexagrams in order to make a living.

Because the fortune telling is the simplest, you can write a banner yourself and tie it to a bamboo pole.

But after being reincarnated, Yi Jiuxiao really hadn't seen a fortune teller.

Perhaps because this is the world of cultivators, cultivators think they can sense the way of heaven and don't believe in the words of mortal warlocks at all.

It is likely that Yi Jiuxiao was the first fortune teller in this world, and he sat on the side of the road with a piece of cloth in front of him.

The cloth reads, "Five hundred years of knowledge, five hundred years of knowledge." Predict the events before and after life, and ask about the future and wealth. ”

For more than two hours, no one cared about it at all.

Cultivators who passed by, even Qi refining cultivators scoffed, and mortals who passed by also looked at it from a distance, and they didn't want to get closer.

Fortunately, Yi Jiuxiao does not make a living from this, it is best if no one patronizes it, and some people have to waste their tongues when they come.

He set up a stall here just to hide people's eyes, the purpose is to wait for Zhou Lei, the second prince of the Zhou State.

But business still came to the door, and in the middle of the afternoon, a customer came to the stall.

This person came from the east, and it seemed that he was going to the Jinhai Inn, but he suddenly turned his head for some reason.

Before the man walked to the stall, he first swept Yi Jiuxiao with his divine thoughts, and only after confirming that he was a mortal did he ask, "Are you a god?"

Yi Jiuxiao didn't need to sweep him with his divine thoughts at all, just by his breath, he could feel that this person's cultivation was in the middle stage of foundation building.

Seeing him ask, he didn't speak, but just shook his head.

"So how can you predict the past and the future, in my opinion you are a mortal, what is the ability to say this?"

When this person started to ask, there were only three words, Yi Jiuxiao couldn't distinguish his accent, and now he heard a lot of words, this person was from Yi Guo.

Could it be that Li Kuan arranged a spy in Golden State? But on second thought, it is not right, the spy cannot have such an obvious native accent, so it can be easily exposed.

Maybe it was a merchant from Yi Guo, but this idea was quickly ruled out by Yi Jiuxiao.

Although there are many merchants at the junction of Yi and Chen, the merchants will speak some native dialect and will not have a complete Yi accent.

In addition, this person is not very old, and he has already built a foundation in the middle of cultivation, and this kind of cultivation is generally not in business.

Then there are only two possibilities, one is that the Xuan family sent to test themselves, and the other is the remnants of the Feng family who escaped from the Yi country.

"Fortune-telling and word testing, there is faith and there is none. Calculate the money, but not collect a penny. ”

Yi Jiuxiao's bunch of rhetoric were all commonly used by Taoist priests in the previous life.

"Then you can calculate it for me, and if you can calculate it, it will naturally not treat you badly, and if you can't calculate it, it won't do anything to you!" the man asked.
