However, it was said that Sima Ting's two brothers had escaped, but they didn't have the heart to stay in Yangzhou anymore, so they ran back to Jingzhou without stopping.

It wasn't until the two of them saw that Xiangyang City was in front of them that they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and finally they didn't have to worry about Han Su chasing after them. There are tens of thousands of garrisons in Xiangyang City, and there are even more masters in the palace of the King of Chu. Even if Han Su is profound, but thousands of soldiers shoot arrows together, even Da Luo Jin Immortal has to take off a layer of skin!

The two brothers rushed up to a hill not far from Xiangyang City, looking at Xiangyang City and roaring. expressed the depression in his heart.

The two looked at each other and laughed, looking at the towering ancient Xiangyang City in the distance.

I saw a majestic and majestic city being presented in front of them, from here, you can vaguely see the soldiers on the city tower wandering in a row, Sima Ting's eyes are sharp, and you can vaguely see the snow armor full of mottled sword marks, highlighting their glorious achievements.

Jingzhou, the majestic ancient city, has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times. During the Three Kingdoms, Jingzhou was the target of various princes. After the founding of the Western Jin Dynasty, Sima Wei, the king of Chu, was divided into Jingzhou to deter the Southern Barbarians, and it is not difficult to see that Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty attached great importance to this son. And Jingzhou, under Sima Wei's hard work, is becoming more and more prosperous.

Faintly visible, the shiny armor was full of mottled sword marks, showing their glorious achievements.

Sima Ting sighed at first sight: "Third brother, I think that my Chu State is such a lion, and those soldiers in Yangzhou compare it with them, saying that the farmers all look down on them. ”

Sima Yi smiled: "This is nature! The soldiers in Yangzhou were just maintaining local law and order. However, the soldiers of my Chu State have the duty of guarding the border. Long-term rotation in southern Xinjiang. Naturally, combat effectiveness is not the same. ”

Sima Yi suddenly pondered: "I don't know which is stronger or weaker compared to the Luoyang Forbidden Army?" ……”

Sima Yi looked at Sima Ting in surprise, only to see that he didn't seem to be laughing, could it be that he was stimulated by Han Su's behavior? Then there was silence.

An hour later, the two sneaked back to the Chu Palace. Unexpectedly, the two of them hadn't run two steps yet. Then I heard an angry shout: "You two stop me!" ”

Sima Ting and Sima Yi immediately stopped their figures, and said in unison to a woman dressed in palace clothes who was glaring at them angrily: "Queen Mother! ”

It turned out that this person was the princess of Chu. Although Princess Chu is nearly forty years old, she is still graceful and luxurious. Although the king of Chu has a lot of concubines, no one can take his favor, and the four sons and three daughters who are also loved are all from the princess of Chu, and the hidden secrets are not enough for outsiders. Therefore, Princess Chu's status in the palace is unmatched.

A month ago, Princess Chu found out that Sima Ting and Sima Yi had left a letter and disappeared, but she was so angry that she scolded the two of them for being unscrupulous.

Originally, she wanted to go to the Buddhist temple in the city to pray for blessings today, but she bumped into the two of them sneaking into the Chu Palace, which was really angry! Princess Chu stepped forward, stretched out her hands and grabbed the ears of the two of them and said, "You are bold enough!" You two are willing to come back! ”

Sima Ting's two brothers didn't dare to resist at all, and Sima Yi said to him: "Queen Mother, the child knows that he is wrong, and he will never dare to dare again in the future, so you can spare the child!" ”

When Princess Chu heard this, she grabbed Sima Yi's hand and increased her strength, making Sima Yi scream for a while. I only heard Princess Chu say: "The third child! If you don't learn it yourself, it's okay! even took Lao Qi to mess around with him! You want to be angry with your mother!

Sima Yi repeatedly said forgiveness, and kept glancing at Sima Ting, meaning that it was your turn to go out.

Sima Ting was amused in his heart, and he also said to him: "Queen Mother, the child knows that he is wrong. Just let the kids go. ”

Sure enough, Princess Chu listened to Sima Ting's words and finally let go of the two, but she was still angry: "Alas, the two of you! Why don't you learn well! Look at your two elder brothers, the eldest brother has already helped your father handle government affairs, and the second brother is also very prestigious in the Chu army. You two know how to play, play, play. When will I grow up? ”

Sima Ting immediately laughed, hugged Princess Chu, and said, "Queen Mother, isn't it enough to have a big brother and a second brother?" The third brother and I just want to please the queen mother. ”

Princess Chu finally smiled a little after listening to Sima Ting's words.

Sima Yi rubbed his ears on the side and muttered, "Eccentric." Aren't they all from a mother's womb? ”

Princess Chu patted Sima Ting's hand, glared at Sima Yi again, and said, "You two go and see your father." He's worried about both of you. ”

Sima Ting and Sima Yi all responded yes, and said goodbye to the princess of Chu and went to the study of the king of Chu.

When they came to the study, the two Sima brothers slowly moved in with their heads down, and said in a low voice, "Father, we are back." ”

Sima Wei, the king of Chu, was in the prime of life, his slightly fat body was dressed in a purple python robe, and he sat on a chair casually, but he was not angry but arrogant. He glanced at the two of them, snorted, and spat out two words: "Kneel." ”

Sima Ting and the two immediately knelt on the ground, not daring to make a sound.

Their eldest brother Sima Fan was also beside Chu Wangwei at the moment, and when he saw the appearance of the two, he couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Chu Wangwei continued to discuss the political affairs of Chu State with Sima Fan, but he ignored Sima Ting and the two who were kneeling on the ground.

Sima Ting and the two brothers knelt for about half an hour, just listening to their father and eldest brother discussing political affairs, and felt bored, so they made faces at each other.

"Smack!" I saw Chu Wangwei throw a book of folds on the table and glared at the two of them angrily. Both bowed their heads in fear.

Sima Fan on the side felt secretly amused when he saw it, and persuaded him loudly: "Father, the third and seventh are just playful, you see that the two of them have been kneeling for so long, it is better to let them get up first." ”

Chu Wangwei said angrily: "Playful?!" The two of them are already twenty and three! The other is eighteen years old! You say, when will these two brutes be able to save my worries! ”

Sima Ting and Sima Yi fell to the ground in unison and said, "Father! Erchen knew that he was wrong. ”

Sima Fan persuaded again: "Father, since both of them know that they are wrong, it is better to forget it." ”

Chu Wangwei snorted coldly again, but he didn't make a sound.

Sima Fan hurriedly glanced at the two, and when Sima Ting and the two saw each other, they immediately kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Father!" ”

Chu Wangwei waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay!" Get up. ”

Sima Ting and the two immediately stood up giggling.

Chu Wangwei looked at it and said, "I don't look serious!" Tell me, what have you done in the past month? ”

Sima Yi hurriedly said: "Erchen traveled with Lao Qi to the mountains and rivers of Dajin, and he benefited a lot!" ”

Chu Wangwei snorted coldly again and said, "Benefited a lot? Then tell me about it! ”

"This." Sima Yi was speechless for a while.

Sima Ting took a step forward and said, "Father! The retainers have something to say. Saying that, he told Chu Wangwei in detail about the encounter with Hansu.

After Chu Wangwei heard this, his face sank like water.

When Sima Yi saw it, he immediately added fuel to the fire and said: "Father! That Han Su dared to bully our Chu Wangfu, is it unbearable! After speaking, he saw Chu Wangwei glaring at him fiercely, but he stopped talking.

Chu Wangwei pondered for a moment and said, "You guys go down first." ”

Sima Ting and the two retreated.

At night, Sima Ting was called to the study by Chu Wangwei.

As soon as Chu Wangwei saw Sima Ting coming in, he asked, "Have you cultivated the Demon Gate Holy Scripture "Great Shura Demon Classic"? ”

Sima Ting owed a debt and said, "Father, the minister has wanted to tell you about this matter for a long time, but he has never been able to find a chance." What Erchen cultivated was indeed the "Great Shura Demon Codex". Sima Ting paused, raised his head and glanced at Chu Wangwei, and saw that his expression had not changed, so he continued: "This matter should have happened eleven years ago, when a person came to the palace to teach his son's exercises, but his father refused. Does Father remember? ”

Chu Wangwei nodded and said, "You continue." ”

Someone sneaked into Erchen's room late that night and said that his name was Du Jue and that he wanted to teach Erchen martial arts. Because the retainers were by his father's side that day, he recognized that it was a person who had come to the palace. At that time, he was young and ignorant, and when he saw that his martial arts could be suspended in the air, he was tempted by him to worship his master and learn art secretly with him. However, that man taught his son for more than half a month, but he left the martial arts and evaporated from the world. But my sons are already obsessed with practicing, and they can't stop. I have been cultivating.

Later, when I grew up, I realized that the master I worshipped was actually the master of the Demon Gate, and he practiced the Demon Gate's "Great Shura Demon Codex". It's just that the reputation of the demon gate has always been poor, and my son is afraid that his father will be annoyed with me, so he has been hesitating and not speaking. ”

Chu Wangwei pondered for a long time after listening to this, sighed lightly, and said, "You go down first." Sima Ting replied with a "whoo" and withdrew to the study.

Sima Ting walked all the way to his dormitory, but he kept thinking about the story that Hansu told him that day, is he really the so-called Holy Son of the Demon Gate? When he was thinking about it, Sima Ting suddenly saw a figure flash in the darkness, and his heart was shocked. That person's body method is extremely fast, I'm afraid that he is more than one cut higher than himself!

I don't know who sneakily walked through the palace in the middle of the night, didn't a large number of worship masters in the palace find out? Under suspicion, he quietly followed, followed for a long time, and saw the figure floating into Chu Wangwei's study. Sima Ting came to the outside of the study with bated breath and secretly looked inside.

The study was eerily silent. The candle flame emitted a bright light, which should have blown away the darkness, but it made the room even deeper. Chu Wangwei sat quietly alone, the candle flame reflected on his not majestic, but very majestic body, and his shadow swaying back and forth was reflected on the ground, which seemed a little vicissitudes.

Suddenly, a strong gust of wind struck, and the candle flame was extinguished in an instant. And the doors and windows were clearly closed. The room was plunged into darkness, with only a faint glow of moonlight shining through the cracks in the doors and windows.

Sima Ting was shocked, he only thought that someone was going to assassinate Chu Wang Wei, so he was about to rush in, but found that no one appeared, and he couldn't help but be even more puzzled in his heart. He also stood still and quietly lurked outside.

In this way, Chu Wangwei was silent in the dark for an unknown amount of time, and even the acquaintance outside the study also chirped.

Chu Wangwei finally muttered to himself: "The Nine Thunder Shocking Demon was born. So saying, he stood up, walked slowly to the window by the faint moonlight, stretched out his hand and pushed the window open, and looked up, only to see that the moon outside the window tonight was exceptionally bright.

The moonlight shone into the room, but there were two shadows on the ground!

"You're here." Chu Wangwei looked at a crescent moon in the sky and said calmly. But there was no answer behind him.

After a while, Chu Wangwei secretly sighed in his heart. Turning to the majestic figure in the darkness, he said in a somewhat tired voice: "It's been more than ten years, and you're still the same. Governor! ”

Outside the room, Sima Ting listened to Chu Wangwei's words, and couldn't help but open his mouth wide in surprise. The one who taught himself the Demon Gate Kung Fu?!

Sima Ting squinted his eyes and watched the man slowly step out of the darkness, and stopped walking five steps in front of Chu Wangwei, although it was only five steps, it seemed that there was a huge gap between them that could never be crossed. The moonlight shone on his face, and it was the governor! Although it has been eleven years, Sima Ting still recognizes him at a glance!

Du Jue stared at Chu Wangwei, but the merry young man back then had white temples, and he couldn't help but sigh a little: "You have changed a lot." ”

Chu Wangwei understood what the governor meant, and smiled faintly: "The years are like water!" My martial arts are not good, not as strong as you, and I will naturally age faster. ”

"Wrong!" Du Jue shook his head and said, "It's that you want too much, and your ambitions are too big!" Therefore, if you worry too much, you will grow old faster. ”

"Maybe." Chu Wangwei smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "Born in the emperor's family, many times I can't help myself." ”

After Chu Wangwei finished speaking, Du Jue just snorted coldly, but there was no interface.

Then there was silence again. Sima Ting felt that the relationship between the two seemed to be very complicated.

After a long time, it was Sima Wei who opened his mouth and said: "The martial arts of Zidu (Sima Ting's character Zidu) were taught by you, right?" ”

The governor replied calmly: "Exactly." ”

Sima Wei sighed and said, "I knew that even if I rejected you, you would find a way to teach him martial arts." In fact, when the prince used to learn from the palace guards, the worship in the palace told me that there were some shadows of the Holy Gate in his martial arts moves. Then I knew it was you. ”

Then Chu Wangwei looked a little excited and said, "But how do you let Zidu cultivate the Great Shura Demon Codex?" If you don't teach it personally, you just leave the secret book of the exercises and leave it alone, but it's extremely irresponsible! Don't you, as the Master of the Holy Gate, know that for thousands of years, no one who has cultivated the Great Shura Demon Book has survived?! As he spoke, Chu Wangwei's face was a little angry.

Hearing this, Du Jue unconsciously showed a hint of a smile and said, "Don't you understand? Zidu's physique is the remnant demon physique recorded in the "Great Shura Demon Classic". The "Great Shura Demon Codex" is cultivated by others, and there is indeed death and no life. But for the sub-capital, it can be said that it is tailor-made, and it will never be counterattacked, and it will get twice the result with half the effort. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to leave. And a few days ago, when I watched Zidu fight with Han Su, I found that he had entered the innate realm. ”

Sima Ting heard Du Jue's words outside the room, it turned out that this master had been following him, but why didn't he save me at that time? The more he listened, the more he felt that the relationship between his father and the governor was unusual.

Sima Wei was also a little surprised at this time, and he didn't entangle himself with the governor about the transmission of gong, and asked instead: "Innate realm? As far as I know, there are only more than 30 masters in the Innate Realm of Dajin now, right? Are you sure that your martial arts have reached such a height? ”

Seeing that the governor nodded, Sima Wei was overjoyed, after all, he was his own child, and he was naturally happy to have achievements as Lao Tzu.

Immediately afterwards, Sima Wei asked again: "In the world, you and Buddhism Hongren, Confucianism Hansu, and Daomen Guoxiang were the only four innate realms at that time. Is it true? ”

Du Jue calmed down, sneered and said: "Everyone in the world knows that when a person who practices martial arts reaches a certain height, the internal force of his body will exist in the form of innate true qi, and at this time, he will step into the innate realm. And the people of the innate realm go one step further by compressing the gaseous true qi into the liquid true element, that is, they have reached the ever-changing innate realm, but they don't know that above the realm of the transformation, there is another realm, which is the legendary realm of the heavenly dao!

Han Suqi's martial arts have actually just entered the innate realm, but Guo Xiang is a veritable master of the realm. As for Na Hongnin, he faintly has the potential to transcend the innate realm and enter the heavenly realm. ”

After that, he sighed again: "The world is so big, there are countless strange people, when I entered the congenital realm, I thought that it would be difficult to meet an opponent in the world." However, when he traveled to Huashan, he was completely suppressed by an old man who had reached the realm of Heavenly Dao and was defeated. The real masters are hidden. It seems that people such as us who roll in the red dust are just frogs at the bottom of the well. ”

Sima Wei couldn't help but feel a little funny: "It turns out that you have also changed." ”

The governor was not angry when he heard it: "In the past ten years, there have always been some unexpected things. ”

Sima Wei waited for him to sigh for a moment, and then asked, "Why do you have time to come and sit with me today?" ”

Du Jue's expression suddenly became solemn, and he said word by word: "Yang Jun, I want to cut the domain." ”

Sima Wei was shocked when he heard this, and involuntarily took a step forward: "What? Then he asked, "Where did you get the news?" ”

Du Jue snorted and said, "A month ago, I sneaked into Yang Jun's mansion out of boredom, but I overheard Yang Jun discussing with a group of ministers about cutting the domain. Later, I walked around Yang Jun's mansion and found a secret room, and I found this thing inside. ”

As he spoke, he took out a bright yellow scroll from his bosom and handed it to Sima Wei. Sima Wei took it and unfolded it, and it turned out to be a holy decree! I couldn't help but shake my hands.

When the governor saw this, he continued: "However, unfortunately, when I was about to leave Yang Jun's mansion that day, I was careless and let Han Su find out. Later, Han Su led a large number of masters to the south to chase and kill me. Actually, it was a coincidence that the son met Han Su in Yangzhou that day, and Han Su chased me there. He also knows that your King Chu has something to do with my Demon Gate, and he wants to force me to obey if he catches him. ”

Sima Ting listened outside, and couldn't help but scold Han Su for being despicable and shameless.

After reading the holy decree, Chu Wangwei closed it fiercely, and said angrily: "This Yang Jun, wolf ambition!" This is the edict of the first emperor, and the edict clearly states that Sima Liang, the king of Runan, is the same minister as him. And he dared to hide this holy decree privately, forcing Wang Liang of Runan out of the capital and monopolizing the court! After saying that, he took a few steps back and forth, stopped and rolled up the holy decree, and carefully put it into his bosom.

When the governor saw it, he didn't care: "You kings have fiefs and armies. Like you, the State of Chu is already a country within a country, with tens of thousands of armor, which has already posed a threat to Luoyang. If Yang Jun wants to cut the domain, I'm afraid he will cut you. ”

Chu Wangwei sneered when he heard this: "This world is my Sima family, and if he wants to cut the feudal domain surnamed Yang, he also has to ask our Sima clan if the sword in his hand agrees!" ”

Seeing that Sima Wei was full of thoughts, Du Jue looked at the sky outside the window and said, "It's already midnight and the third watch, right?" I'll go first. ”

When Sima Ting heard that Du Jue was about to come out, he hurriedly hid in the corner, secretly excited that he had heard such a shocking secret. That Yang Jun was bold enough to dare to hide the edict of the first emperor privately! But why did he keep this edict all the time, wouldn't it be better if it was destroyed? Thinking of this, Sima Ting also felt no more than Yang Jun. Still want to deal with your father? I'm afraid I don't know how I'll die when the time comes!

Du Jue was about to go out, when Chu Wangwei suddenly asked, "Do you still hate me?!" Actually, your sister has always missed you. ”

The Governor paused, and his broad shoulders seemed to tremble a little. But after all, he opened the door and disappeared in an instant.

When Sima Ting saw it, he immediately followed secretly. found that Du Jue turned right and ran into his mother's bedroom, and he couldn't help but be furious. What does this governor want to do when he enters his mother's bedroom?!

I saw that Du Jue gently landed behind a bush in front of the queen mother's bedroom, and Sima Ting secretly hid it here. After a while, he saw his father coming.

When the queen mother saw that her father was coming, she stepped forward to give him a wide garment and waited for him to go to bed. Although all this can be done by his subordinates, the father did it himself from beginning to end, and it is not difficult to see that the two are in love as before.

Although Chu Wangwei has countless women, he really only loves the princess in his heart. Chu Wangwei suddenly hugged the princess: "Fang'er, your brother has been here at night." ”

The princess was shocked when she heard this, and slowly and gently hugged Chu Wangwei, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "He, is he okay?" ”

Chu Wangwei said: "It's good, it's still the same as before." ”

The princess suddenly burst into tears, choked up, and said, "It's been almost thirty years...... Is he still blaming me for secretly tying the knot with you in private? …… I know that he is for my good, and he has been protecting me since my father died...... I know that he is afraid that I will be wronged by marrying into the palace, but I am really happy to be with you...... I really don't regret it......"

Chu Wangwei didn't say anything, just hugged the princess gently and listened to her.

After a long time, the princess seemed to have vented her emotions, so she gently leaned her head on Chu Wangwei's shoulder, her eyes unintentionally looked at the bushes outside the door, and in a trance she seemed to see the figure of Du Jue, and she was shocked, and looked at it again, but saw that there was no one in the bushes, and she laughed at herself at the moment that she missed too much, and she actually hallucinated.

Sima Ting was secretly speechless when he heard this, it turned out that the governor turned out to be his uncle!
