When Li Xiao's eyes looked towards the ancient city wall, the mobile phone is the most traffic-saving, ad-free site.

This ancient city is majestic and heavy, it has experienced the changes of the years, and it has a kind of eternal vicissitudes of life, but in addition, Li Xiao poured his mana into his eyes, and when he looked at it, he found that there was a very strong demonic aura in the city.

This demonic aura is about to drip out of water, it turns into a rolling black mist, rising into the sky, intersecting out of thin air, like a huge black floating cloud, enveloping the entire city, isolating the light from the sky, causing the yang energy that falls in the city to decrease a lot, it is completely a scene of yin and yang decline, and it looks very weird!

"Master Li, you must have found out too, right?" Yan Chixia on the side also felt this strange scene, and couldn't help frowning.

"There must be demons when things go wrong, in this city, there are not only demons, but also big demons who cover the sky with one hand!" Li Xiao nodded, undeniably authentic.

Although it is not possible to determine whether this powerful demonic aura is emitted by a big demon in Pudu Cihang, the strength of the demons gathered in the capital can also be seen, thinking of this, Li Xiao's eyes can't help but reveal a trace of solemnity.

"The demons in the Qing Dynasty must be eliminated as soon as possible, if they are allowed to develop like this, then the consequences will be absolutely unimaginable!" Li Xiao clenched his fists and said secretly in his heart.

After handing over the customs clearance papers, the group was able to enter the capital.

At the foot of the Son of Heaven, the capital of the capital, once the center, is naturally extremely prosperous, there are many pedestrians, cars and horses are weaving, shops are lined up on the streets, and the shouting and shouting is endless.

Li Xiao has gone through many planes, and the prosperous scenes he has seen are numerous, and when he saw this ancient capital, his expression was very indifferent. And Zuo Qianhu and Fu Tianqiu, a military general, a civil official, are all officials in the court, and the capital naturally has no less, so they are also accustomed to it, but Wu San and Chen Yang are the first time to enter Beijing, strolling through the streets, looking around, as if they are full of curiosity about everything.

It's just that in the midst of such a bustling scene, with a loud shout, the panicked crowd dodged to both sides of the road, thus making way for a road.

"Heist it."

"Get out of here, get out of the way if you don't want to die!"

At this time, I saw a burly man with a scarred face and a full body of anger, holding a broadsword in his hand, driving away the crowd on the street, running all the way out of the city, and his other hand was still holding a gray money bag, obviously this is the property he just robbed!

Looking at the murderous appearance of this murderer, no one dared to stop him on the street, and even the patrol not far away pretended not to be aware.

"Audacious, dare to plunder property in broad daylight, can there be a king's law?!" Zuo Qianhu, who was jealous and hateful, his face sank, and he stepped forward, directly blocking the murderer's way.

"Dare to stand in the way of the uncle, I think you are looking for death!"

The murderer's expression was hideous, the fat on his face was twisted, his wrist trembled, and he slashed towards Zuo Qianhu's face door with a broad knife.

Zuo Qianhu's shoulders shook slightly, avoiding the attack, and in a moment, Zuo Qianhu snorted lightly, and a steel knife "Canglang" came out of its sheath, which was held in his hand, and slashed down angrily towards the murderer, flashing an arc of piercing blades!

With a burst of blood, the murderer let out a whining and wail, and one arm was separated.

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and arrest this murderer."

After hearing Zuo Qianhu's scolding, the cowering patrol not far away finally reacted and arrested the murderer who had broken one of his arms.

"Zuo Qianhu is so good at martial arts, he actually knocked down the murderer with one blow." A patrol leader immediately recognized the identity of the thousand households, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he stepped forward and arched his hand at him.

Zuo Qianhu returned the knife into the sheath, frowned, and snorted coldly at the other party: "Indulge the murderers to rob and commit murder on the street, if it was under my account, I would have corrected you on the spot!" ”

"That's what Senno-sama said." was pointed at by Zuo Qianhu, and the patrol leader just laughed dryly, disappreroving, for such a situation, they are obviously commonplace.

Seeing this scene in his eyes, Li Xiao shook his head with a little disappointment, he dared to commit murder on the street openly, and what was even more terrifying was that it could be seen from the words and demeanor of the patrol leader that this seemed to be a normal situation, and the security here was also evident.

After Zuo Qianhu reprimanded the patrol leader with hatred and steel, he turned around, arched yes, and said goodbye to Li Xiao and the others for the time being. Because after coming to the capital, Zuo Qianhu needs to perform his duties first, temporarily put Fu Tianqiu in the prison, and wait until tomorrow to plead with the emperor together, which is also something they have discussed before.

After separating from Zuo Qianhu, Li Xiao, Yan Chixia, the Fu sisters and others found an inn in the city to settle down, and they planned to rest and rectify here for a while, and wait until tomorrow to go to the current saint together, so as to wash away the grievances of that Fu Tianqiu.

……

……

Following.

The Taihe Hall of the capital is resplendent and splendid, a magnificent image, and the civil and military officials representing the highest positions of the imperial court are lined up in two rows of the main hall.

The current emperor is sitting high on the dragon chair, and since the beginning of the early dynasty, he has looked around at the many ministers, but there is a sense of tiredness in his eyes, and the hall is also faintly dark.

I saw him wave his hand, and the eunuch next to him understood the meaning, and shouted in a shrill voice outside the hall: "Summons the new official to Beijing to the palace!" ”

Half an hour later, with a series of restrained and nervous footsteps, more than a dozen new officials wearing official robes and costumes walked into the main hall.

"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, and the lower officials see the saint."

"Flat." The emperor's gaze swept over everyone, and he said weakly.

At this time, the imperial examination system was not perfect, and the more than ten officials who had just entered the court were all hand-picked by the emperor according to their fame and political achievements, and there would be more than a dozen every year, and on this day, the emperor had to canonize these new officials in addition to going to the court to discuss matters.

As in normal years, the new officials presented their names one by one, thanked the emperor for his kindness, and swore allegiance to the imperial court.

And at this time, a man with a lofty instrument stepped out of the array, and made a mockery to the emperor above the court, and said: "See Your Majesty, the lower official has something to report to Your Majesty." ”

"Who is the so-called person in the hall?" Hearing this, the emperor frowned slightly, pointed to the people in the hall, and asked the personal eunuch on the side.

"The person who spoke is Li Xiao, the new Taichang Zhengqing appointed by His Majesty, who has just been transferred from Guobei County, and his father is Li Tongshan, the captain of Jinling County." The eunuch on the side replied.

"It turns out that you are Li Xiao, well, yes, you are really young and promising." After hearing this, the emperor propped up his limp body from the dragon chair, his eyes lit up, and he glanced up and down Li Xiao with interest.

The face is as handsome as jade, the tall and burly body, standing on the court, like a strong and straight Jinsong, and the official uniform lined with a warm temperament.

To say that Li Xiao is a civil official, it is clear that he looks so burly, to say that he is a military attaché, but the kind of warm and profound temperament exuded by his body really makes people feel like they are facing a great sage.

Although it was the first time the emperor saw Li Xiao himself, he had already heard this name like thunder, not only as a famous family, but also in just two years to govern Guobei County in an orderly manner, such outstanding merits, so that the emperor had no reason not to include him in the list of hand-picked new officials.

"It turns out that this person is Li Xiao, Taichangqing, who has just been promoted?"

"Sure enough, he is young and promising."

"Hmph, it's not his father's relationship, I think it's just a name."

"It is said that in just two years, he has managed the poor and defeated Guobei County in an orderly manner, and it is said that the current appearance of the place is completely new."

"Are you talking about the location of the Lanruo Temple, which is full of ghosts and rampant banditry? It is incredible that there can be such a big change in two years. ”

Not only the emperor, but also a group of civil and military ministers in the hall all talked about it one after another, envious, jealous, resentful, and appreciative.

"Tell me what you want to report to me." The emperor was a little curious.

Li Xiao looked at the emperor, and said in a deep voice: "Xia Guan feels that there are many loopholes and suspicions in the bloody rebellion that occurred in the court not long ago, and only by relying on the one-sided words of a few guan members, it is impossible to prove the evidence of Lord Fu's rebellion, and please ask Your Majesty to think twice, withdraw your order, and severely punish those traitors and thieves, so as to return Lord Fu's innocence!" ”

The reason why Fu Tianqiu was imprisoned was because someone falsely accused him of taking the lead and instigating a group of guan members to write a blood letter and plot a rebellion, but this is simply a non-existent thing, Fu Tianqiu is loyal to the imperial court, and he has done his best, only caring about the common people, and has never had the slightest idea of rebellion, this is completely someone is framing him, and those who were framed together are all loyal ministers without exception.

……

……

The emperor's brows tightened, and he patted the armrest, the expression on his face was cloudy, but there was a glint of essence flashing under his eyes.

"Bold Li Xiao, you dare to discuss the affairs of the court and question the clear judgment of the saints, what crime do you dare to be!" At this time, the great eunuch Yang Gonggong waved the dust in his hand and let out a sharp shout.

Li Xiao squinted his eyes slightly, and retorted loudly: "What I told is true, what is the crime, above this court, the emperor has not yet spoken, when will it be your turn to be a eunuch fox and a fake tiger!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials above the hall couldn't help but be in an uproar and looked at each other.

None of them expected that Li Xiao would mention such a sensitive case as Master Fu in the early dynasty, and openly questioned the emperor's decision, which simply did not take the emperor in his eyes, and it could even be said that this was also a great disapproval of the world.

Some of the old ministers who still admired Li Xiao couldn't help but shake their heads, showing a look of disappointment, of course they knew the truth about the bloody plot against him, but they were so wild in the court, but it was really not the way of officials. Even they, who have been guan's ministers for decades, would never dare to express such a sensitive matter in this hall.

In just a few words, it is equivalent to offending both the emperor and Gonggong Yang, so the appreciation that these old ministers just had was discounted at this time.

And there are some people who are jealous of Li Xiao, when they see this scene, they are overjoyed, and then look at the emperor's angry expression, their hearts are more balanced, and some people even look at Li Xiao standing in the hall with a pitiful expression: It seems that the young man is still too tender.

Li Xiao carried his hands behind his back, like a tall and strong pine, with a determined look in his eyes, revealing fearlessness and vacillation.

Of course, he knew in his heart that this case of bloody rebellion was very sensitive in the court, and he directly involved the emperor's decision, and even shocked the court.

But Li Xiao's heart is more deeply aware that if this case is not investigated clearly and the chaos is set right, then the indominance in the court will become more and more serious, not only Fu Tianqiu, but also many loyal and good ministers framed, they are all miserably wronged, some people are imprisoned in the prison, and some people are souls returned to the sky, if this continues, there will be fewer and fewer loyal ministers in the court, and in the end it will be completely filthy and hopeless.

Therefore, Li Xiao wants to give this court a shot in the arm, even if it stirs up the storm, he must stop the spread of this situation.

You must know that just now he quietly used his divine thoughts to explore the surroundings, and he found that in this Taihe Palace, there were several thick demonic qi hidden, and the emperor's personal eunuch Yang Gonggong was one of them.

Obviously, those demons had already extended their tentacles to the center of the imperial city, so it was even more necessary for Li Xiao to knock and knock well.

……

……

"You... You dare to make a big statement in this court, it's a crime that deserves death, come on, take him down for me! Yang Gonggong was so angry that his face turned blue, his expression was hideous, and he suddenly ordered.

Several guards broke into the Taihe Hall violently, and according to Yang Gonggong's order, they surrounded Li Xiao, and several people reached out and grabbed Li Xiao's shoulder and wrist, but before their hands touched Li Xiao, an invisible force suddenly surged over like a tide, and several guards were caught off guard and shot out a distance of several meters in surprise.

Many of the ministers present gasped in fright, some of the timid ones had already shrunk into the corners of the main hall, and even the emperor who was sitting on the dragon chair couldn't help but shrink his neck, and his face changed greatly.

They could clearly see that Li Xiao was standing there, not moving his hand at all, but those strong guards were like magnets on the positive pole, and they were suddenly shocked and flew out, which was really weird!

"Come on, Imperial Forest Army, someone is going to kill the emperor's life!" Yang Gonggong's pupils shrank suddenly, and a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

A team of well-trained Imperial Guards in armor rushed in one after another, and when they saw the guards who fell to the ground and wailed, they couldn't help but show a solemn look on their faces, and they all pulled out the embroidered spring knives on their waists, flashing a continuous cold knife light, and in the shouting, they slashed towards Li Xiao.

The corners of Li Xiao's mouth turned up, setting off a faint arc, only to see his five fingers together, clenched into a fist, and then spread out his palm again, and the five fingers popped out one after another.

"Snort!"

A series of fierce spiritual rhino sword qi shot out from Li Xiao's fingertips, like a streamer bursting out, and in the crisp cracking sound, the embroidered spring blades in the hands of those Imperial Forest Soldiers were cut off from the hilt, and finally fell to the ground with a "clatter".

At the same time, Li Xiao took a deep breath, and the pure yang inner breath was surging in his body, pouring it into his palms along his arms, and then pushing forward sharply, only to see a fireball the size of a basin flying out with scorching energy.

"Five Elements Escape Sutra - Fireball Technique!"

The blazing fireball scorched and twisted the space, causing a rolling wave of heat to open up!

Before the fireball reached the front door, the royal forest soldiers felt the rolling heat wave on their faces, and even the embroidered spring knife in their hands was roasted hot, and reflexively threw the embroidered spring knife to the ground.

Fireballs passed them, but they still burned their hair, and the smell of burning came from the hall.

However, Li Xiao didn't stop, his toes touched the ground lightly, and the whole person jumped up, spiraling, and as the speed increased, a brilliant blue phantom bloomed, and the air flow was raging, and a small storm, mixed with crystal frost, swept towards those royal forest troops!

"The wind is moving, the sky is frosty and cold - snow and wind gluttony"

With the sharp passage of air, the temperature around them also dropped suddenly, and the blue ice and snow storm directly swept the remaining Imperial Forest Army out of the main hall, and fell heavily to the ground, the skin and flesh were opened, and a thin layer of frost was condensed on the surface of their armor and cheeks, which were half-frozen on the stone steps!

Resist the power in the air, snap the fingers and break the sword, the big fireball, the ice and snow storm!

"This ...... Lord Li actually can cast spells, and even the most elite Imperial Forest Army in the palace is helpless against him. ”

"How did he do it? This power is terrifying! ”

"It's so powerful, it's like a legendary immortal who calls the wind and rain, could it be that this Lord Li is actually an immortal?"

"I just found out that the momentum he walked into the hall was very different, it turned out to be really."

The people present, whether it was the old ministers or the new officials, they were dumbfounded one by one, and they didn't know how many eggs they could stuff with their mouths wide open, if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would probably have thought that they were hallucinating, but the remaining flames in front of them, the drifting frost, were all so confirmed, refreshing their three views over and over again.

Protecting the body, the spirit rhino sword qi, the five elements of the escape, the wind god legs and the frost and cold qi, in just a few breaths, Li Xiao's martial arts skills were exhausted, and the imperial forest army was beaten to the ground, everyone was shocked, even the emperor swallowed his saliva heavily, I don't know when cold sweat was oozing from his forehead and back.

"Demon, who is this demon casting spells!" Yang Gonggong took a few steps back, his eyes showed a hint of solemnity, and he shouted angrily.

"What I just performed is obviously the Escape Scripture and Dao Method in the Dao Gate, how can it be demonic?! I think there are people with ill intentions, and what the evil people see is the law of the evil spirit! Li Xiao sneered and said sarcastically, and at the same time took a step forward, his eyes were ejected, like substance, to see through people.

Gonggong Yang was forced to glance at Li Xiao's sharp gaze, and his whole heart was shocked, his shoulders trembled, and he lowered his head, not daring to look directly.

Li Xiao's expression froze, turned his head, and said solemnly to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the lower officials did not mean to offend, but there are indeed many doubts in the case of the bloody rebellion, and I also ask Your Majesty to withdraw the order, send someone to continue to investigate the case, and return Lord Fu and all the ministers who have suffered unjustly to be innocent." ”

After hearing this, all the old ministers were extremely emotional, and at the same time ashamed, everyone knew that Fu Tianqiu was upright, and he was loyal to serve the society, he would never do anything to rebel, so he was framed, and Li Xiaoshi showed a magical power, the purpose is also very simple, that is, to return Fu Tianqiu's innocence, this kind of righteous and awe-inspiring act, how can it be a demon, this is clearly Yang Gonggong is confusing the public, framing words, his purpose is also obvious.

At this time, they all understood what Li Xiao had done, and although they didn't even say anything, their hearts were full of respect and admiration for Li Xiao!

"You ......" The emperor's body couldn't help but tremble, and it took a long time for him to suppress the fear in his heart, and finally he glanced at Yang Gonggong beside him with the corner of his eye, and after a moment of silence, he let out a long sigh, waved his hand, and made a compromise: "Okay, then according to what Li Aiqing said, re-investigate the case of bloody rebellion, we must find out the truth, and tell the world to hear the truth!" ”
