A few months ago, Sheng Xin Country, Tiansheng City.

"These guards are really more and more unreliable, I said that there may be a little conflict, but now it's good, the main lord hasn't arrived yet, they look cowardly!"

In the main hall of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, a young Taoist in his early twenties was sitting lazily on the main seat, and the attendants on the side were all staring at the entrance of the main hall carefully, as if some flood beast was about to appear.

Not long after, a team of people appeared outside the hall, led by a young man in a fancy costume, whose appearance was exactly the same as that of the young man on the main seat in the main hall. The expressions of the attendants in the hall became even more nervous, and even some of their clothes were already wet with sweat.

"Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?" The young man outside the hall did not enter the hall, but stopped three feet from the main entrance, and made a gesture to the person in the room who was almost exactly like himself.

The young man on the throne did not respond, his eyes seemed to be a little glazed at the moment, and due to his sitting position, his eyes could only see the beam above his head.

"Brother, greetings from Jiushu, can the younger brother enter the hall with the guards?" the young man outside the door asked again, but this time he didn't salute again.

As if he had finally heard the words coming from outside the door, the young man in the hall finally moved, and he slowly got up and walked towards the other "self" outside the hall. Both teenagers had breezy expressions on their faces, but the guards on both sides pressed their hands on their sabers.

In the tense air, battles can happen at any time!

"Since the moment you appeared, this Heavenly Master's Mansion has been in your pocket, why do you need to ask me if you want to enter the hall?" The young Taoist did not leave the hall, but slowly spoke at a distance of one foot from the door, "However, if you insist on asking, then I still don't want you and your dogs to come in!"

"The foolish brother is only temporarily keeping the Heavenly Master's Mansion on behalf of the elder brother, and when the elder brother recovers, the younger brother will definitely return it with both hands. The young man in Chinese clothes did not change his expression and saluted again.

The young Taoist showed a noncommittal expression, took out a token from his arms, and threw it at the young man in Chinese clothes, "Inferior house slaves, do you also want to rebel against the guest?" When the two bodies intersected, a whisper came.

The young man in Chinese clothes who took the token still did not enter the hall, and it was not until the Taoist left with all his attendants that he slowly put away the calm on his face and showed a look of disgust.

The young Taoist who was driven away was named Qin Sixteen, which was not so much a name as a code name. The Qin family of Sheng Xinguo has held the position of Heavenly Master for generations, and for ordinary people, they are the Heavenly Master family that is transcendent in the world, and Qin Sixteen is the sixteenth generation heir of the direct bloodline of the Qin family, and the last person in the direct line!

There is no eternal prosperous family in the world, even the royal family of the Shengxin Kingdom has experienced more than 100 years of inheritance, and the current emperor is no longer the descendant of the founding ancestor, although he still uses the same royal family name and firmly claims to be orthodox.

The same is true of the Qin family of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, after hundreds of years, the direct descendants of the Heavenly Master's Mansion have withered, and Qin Sixteen's parents have died long before he can remember.

"It's too cowardly!" Qin Sixteen didn't want to leave like this, but unfortunately, the soybean-like cold sweat on the faces of the guards behind him directly pierced his confidence to resist.

At the turn of spring and summer, Tiansheng City has always been the most lively time, and merchants from all over the country generally gather in the royal capital at this time, exchanging their own ways of making money. Seeing the official sedan chair of the Heavenly Master's Mansion traveling, the merchants and people who came and went avoided it slightly. The main road, which was originally slightly crowded, also slowly opened a small gap for the Heavenly Master's Mansion and his party.

"The sedan chair man and the sedan chair are both fresh faces, but they are quite steady, huh...... What about my people?" Qin Sixteen opened the sedan curtain and stared at the passing traffic in a daze, and then he was speechless to find that the guards he hired were all squeezed to the periphery by the people of the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

There was a burst of restlessness in the distance, a group of cavalry rushed straight towards Qin Sixteen's sedan chair, and the people on the side of the road stopped their work and began to retreat towards the place where the restlessness came, and Qin Sixteen's heart also began to be vigilant!

"His Royal Highness King Li travels, walkers avoid!" A luxurious carriage followed closely behind the cavalry, the body was engraved with dragon patterns, carved beams and paintings, ingenious workmanship, this is a unique mark of the royal family.

When he was about to pass the sedan chair of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, a deep male voice came out of the car: "Qin Tianshi, I haven't seen you for a long time, would you like to go to this palace?"

Qin Sixteen slowly opened the sedan curtain, with a warm smile on his face: "Since it is invited by His Royal Highness King Li, I should accompany him!"

Completely contrary to the master's expression, everyone in the Heavenly Master's Mansion was cold at the moment, and one of the palanquin drivers who was carrying the sedan chair suddenly stood up: "Heavenly Master, the housekeeper has specially instructed you to go back to the house on time to take medicine, if you delay the condition, it will not be good." ”

It is worth caring that the other three sedan chair drivers have not been affected at all, and the center of gravity of the sedan chair has not changed.

"It's okay, His Royal Highness King Li's face is much more important than my body. The smile on Qin Sixteen's face became even bigger, and the guards of King Li were also faintly surrounding everyone in the Heavenly Master's Mansion at this moment, and the pawn traders who were farther away on the side of the road did not feel this imminent atmosphere, they were still busy with their own work.

"No matter how bold the people of the Heavenly Master's Mansion are, it is impossible to force me back in front of King Li!"

For Qin Sixteen, the success or failure of this plan depends entirely on whether King Li will abide by the agreement to help him get out of trouble, not how he will get out of trouble after King Li comes, because he knows that the moment King Li talks to him, he will win!

......

Qin Fen was sitting on the throne of the Heavenly Master's Mansion at this moment, experiencing the vision that only the heirs of the Qin family's main lineage could see for more than two hundred and sixty years. Although Qin Fen was selected by the family as Qin Sixteen's stand-in and his future status was respected, in fact, his background was not good.

Her father was originally an ordinary clansman who was responsible for training miscellaneous servants outside Tiansheng City, and her mother was the daughter of a rice seller.

And the reason why he can become Qin Sixteen's replacement is nothing more than his similar appearance. Therefore, he was brought into the royal capital, received the best education from the family, and memorized all the knowledge and etiquette that a heavenly master should master, it can be said that the Qin family's cultivation of Qin Fen is more than ten times better than that of Qin Sixteen!

"Is this the position of the Heavenly Master that the patriarch has been longing for? It's nothing special, it's just that the vision is relatively broad. Eh, what's this rope up there?"

......

It has been more than 260 years since the founding of the country, and the first generation of heavenly masters is one of the important heroes of the founding of Sheng Xin Taizu.

Therefore, the Qin family has been awarded the position of "Heavenly Master" for generations, and in wartime, the Heavenly Master is responsible for petitioning the heavens to obtain the righteousness of the war, and in peacetime, the responsibility of the Heavenly Master is only to preside over some royal rituals.

The current Qin family is a variety of "relatives" who emerged from all over the country when the first generation of Heavenly Masters became famous, and some of them were the servants of the first generation of Heavenly Masters who were given the surname "Qin" because of their own merits.

Obviously, none of those collateral disciples of the Qin family believed that the first Heavenly Master was an immortal, otherwise they would not dare to bully Qin Sixteen like this. Even Qin Sixteen himself didn't believe that he was a descendant of immortals, otherwise how could he be bullied like this?

"Qin Tianshi's body is actually sick, Wang Hai, don't you help the Heavenly Master to my carriage quickly, my soft cushion of snow fox fur can just help the Heavenly Master reduce some bumps and fatigue. King Li ordered to the attendant who was driving for him.

"Order!" The sturdy guard jumped out of the carriage and walked towards Qin Sixteen's sedan chair step by step, the armor on his body and the gauntlet making a sound of collision and friction.

"Master Heaven, it's not easy for us to explain to the housekeeper!" The sedan chair man stared closely at Qin Sixteen, who poked out half of his head from the sedan chair, his face was as dark as water.

Qin Sixteen ignored it, just waiting for the close attendant of the King of Li to come and pick him up, as for the death intent in the eyes of the Qin family's sedan chair man and his entourage, he didn't notice it at all.

"Boom!" A shrill noise broke Qin Sixteen's expectations.

The guard surnamed Wang had just lifted the sedan curtain when he was pierced through his chest by a sharp sword. The sound of the blunt weapon and the armor finally broke the balance of the celestial master's sedan chair, and the remaining three sedan chair men all drew out the dark sword hidden in their sleeves without exception, and attacked Qin Sixteen in the sedan chair at the same time.

The feeling of being pierced through the flesh with a blunt object was not as unbearable as expected, but the first collision between the body and the ground was impressive!

Am I going to die?

Falling on the cold dirt road, blood slowly flowing out of the three holes in his chest, Qin Sixteen felt a sense of weakness, and the sound of swords and soldiers facing each other in his ears seemed to be getting farther and farther away from him.

Before losing consciousness, Qin Sixteen struggled to open his eyes, wanting to take one last look at this strange world, but he didn't expect that in addition to the scene of the desperate battle between the guards of the King of Li and the dead soldiers of the Qin family, there was also the picture of the guards he hired running for his life.

"That's it...... That's all there is to it...... Sorry too...... Want me to ...... Ask me for ten taels of silver...... One...... People!" Qin Sixteen's mouth shook slightly, and his last words were also muffled by the chaotic sounds of battle.
