When Li Xiang took the three princesses and followed a carriage back to the palace, the palace guards were dumbfounded. Although the royal family is not short of money, there is no need to buy so many things at once, right? Could it be that all the merchants have a big discount?

Later, the guards learned that it was not the merchants who had a big discount, but their Royal Highness the Prince who had been arrested. The merchants who drove the carriage to deliver the goods to the door actually blocked the gate of the palace, waiting for Li Xiang to count the money for them. As a result, Li Xiang took out all his savings, but it was still not enough to pay the bill. Fortunately, the queen heard about it and sent someone to deliver the money, otherwise Li Xiang would have to give the sword studded with gems to those merchants.

After finally sending those merchants away, Li Xiang just wanted to go back to his dormitory, and the king sent someone to find him, so he had to go to the king again.

The king of the Holy Empire is only in his fifties now, and he is in the prime of life, so if Li Xiang, the prince, wants to take over the throne, he will have to wait at least a few decades. However, the king has never relaxed his cultivation, and this time he called him over to tell him that the Maple Leaf Province of the empire has made some mess and let him deal with it.

For the king's father, Li Xiang really couldn't speak. After all, he is the respect of saints, and it is really impossible to let him call an ordinary person "Father". Fortunately, the royal family of this plane does not have so many rules, and when there are no outsiders, even if some of Li Xiang's etiquette is not in place, the king will not blame him. This made Li Xiang feel a lot more comfortable, and at the same time it was also very difficult, the king was so good to him, if he wanted to secretly kill this king, he really couldn't do it.

In front of the queen, Li Xiang also had the same trouble. Fortunately, the current queen is not Matthew's biological mother, but the queen who married the original queen after she died of illness. Therefore, Matthew was not very close to her, and he never called the queen mother, which made Li Xiang feel a lot more worried.

Since he was going out, Li Xiang immediately arranged it after returning to his dormitory. After all, he is a prince, and he must have the style of a prince when he travels. Not to mention the accompanying guards, maids, cooks, etc., just a set of daily changes of clothes, favorite books, commonly used tableware, special toiletries, pillows and other items, it took a long time to pack up and fill three carriages.

For these things, Li Xiang himself doesn't have to worry about it, and he has a housekeeper to handle it. And the housekeeper is also very competent, before the next day's departure, everything can be ready, Li Xiang only needs to get in the carriage and set off. What Li Xiang needed to think about was to ask his first secretary, Eric, to go to Chris and inform him that he was going out, and if he hadn't thought about it, he would wait for him to come back.

And Chris didn't disappoint him, he actually came back directly with Eric, saying that he had thought about it and decided to follow Li Xiang from now on. This time he went to Maple Leaf Province, and he began to act as a guard.

Chris's arrival made Li Xiang very happy, which showed that Alice also agreed to fall to her side. With Alice, it is equivalent to having a cash cow, not only enough pocket money, but also enough capital to do other things.

When Li Xiang set out, in addition to his entourage, there was a minister named Phillips, and a thousand Praetorian Guards. Phillips was nominally Li Xiang's deputy, but in fact he was the real person in charge of the inspection team, and Li Xiang was just a decoration, using the name of the prince to intimidate some people, and at the same time learning from the minister the experience of handling complex affairs.

Of course, Li Xiang doesn't need to learn, he doesn't know how many things he has experienced, even the emperor has done it, can he still understand the pettiness of the officials below? But the king told him to learn, and he was a puppet, and it was better not to do things, he was lazy.

All the people of the patrol group were either on horseback or in carriages, so they traveled quite fast, and on the first day they drove more than 500 miles. This made Li Xiang a little surprised, he didn't expect the horses of this plane to be so powerful, and the large army could still walk so fast when marching together, it was worthy of being a creature of the Magic Continent, even if it was not a magical beast, it was much stronger than the horses in the real world.

When it was time to camp in the evening, Li Xiang summoned Chris and Eric, as well as the four guards he had carefully selected and who were loyal to him, to a secluded place and began to teach them the Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong.

The fighting qi of this plane, the way of cultivation is actually very rough, and it is very similar to foreign kung fu. But because of the environment, from the outside in, it is easy to practice a fighting spirit similar to internal strength. After practicing the fighting spirit, there is also a special method of exercising the fighting spirit, but it is to use high-intensity exercise, constantly consume the fighting spirit, and then slowly recover, then consume, and then recover, and the fighting spirit will naturally increase. This is much less efficient than the way internal forces work in the body.

And the use of vindictive energy is also very different from internal force. Dou Qi is generally attached to fists or weapons, using the inherent characteristics of Dou Qi to increase the power of attacks. There is a very special fighting spirit that can be used for defense. As for the rest, there are no functions such as healing, detoxification, sound amplification, etc.

In this regard, "Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong" is very similar to Dou Qi, and the effect of increasing strength is very obvious, so Li Xiang chose this exercise.

Although the external manifestations are very similar, the cultivation methods of the internal force are still very different. Li Xiangliang spent more than two hours just explaining the knowledge of meridians and acupoints to them. Everyone was tired after a day's journey, and the two-hour study time had already delayed the rest, so Li Xiang had to come here first.

Although they didn't know what they were learning, since His Royal Highness the Prince solemnly taught them, they all worked hard to learn. The next day, when they were on the road, the six people were still reciting the meridian diagram on their horses. Because Li Xiang said that if you can't memorize the meridian diagram, you can't teach the follow-up things.

It took more than ten days to go all the way to Maple Leaf Province. At the warm invitation of the provincial governor, Li Xiang and Phillips and other people of status lived in his luxurious residence. Li Xiang and his subordinates occupied a courtyard alone, but it was very clean.

When they settled down, Chris and the other six officially began to practice "Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong". For these people who don't have any concept of meridians, the meridian diagram is too complicated, especially the hundreds of acupuncture points, with strange names, which can be memorized in more than ten days, which is already a good result.

However, after officially starting to cultivate, Chris and the others found that the cultivation method taught by Li Xiang was indeed magical, and in just one day, their fighting spirit had been transformed into internal force. Since the six people all had a fighting spirit foundation, after being transformed into internal force, they immediately broke through the previous layers. Among them, Chris and Eric are both fourth-level swordsmen, so "Dragon Elephant Prajnagong" has also broken through to the fourth layer. The other four guards were all third-level sword masters, and they broke through to the third layer.

It seems that the level division of the swordsman is similar to that of "Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong", one level to one layer, not bad at all, but it has improved too much in terms of power. The four-story "Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong" has the huge power of four dragons and four elephants, and it is very easy to break through a wall or something.

And "Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong" also shows special effects on the magic plane, and when used, it will emit a blood-red light. This kind of appearance can only be found in the most top-level Dou Qi Gong method, but I didn't expect this kind of vision to appear in "Dragon Elephant Prajna Gong". But it was precisely because of this vision that Chris and the others became more and more excited. The top-level Dou Qi Gong method is not accessible to everyone, and now they are fortunate enough to learn it, of course they are excited, they are more diligent in their cultivation, and even Li Xiang goes out shopping, they refuse to follow, they are afraid of delaying time.

Chris: They are willing to work hard, and Li Xiang is certainly happy to see it. Their strength has increased, that is, their own strength has increased, which is a good thing. As for shopping or something, it's just that Li Xiang is acting like him, making others think that he is really just a name and doesn't care about anything. In fact, Li Xiang doesn't need to run around to investigate, he has the eyes and ears of the sky, even if he sits at home, he can figure everything out clearly.

What happened in Maple Leaf Province this time was actually not a big deal, it was just a group of peasants who suddenly rebelled, killed several municipal officials and bishops, and burned down the church. Maple Leaf Province is a relatively wealthy place in the Holy Empire, and the living standards of the people are higher than other places, and if they rebel here, they can't make a big wave at all, because no one will follow them to play this kind of headless game. All you need to do is mobilize the nearby garrisons, and you can quickly extinguish this gang of rebels.

But instead of rushing to extinguish the rebels, Phillips began to investigate why these people rebelled. Since everyone else is reluctant to fight back, why would these guys do it? They are not going to be unable to live, and they know that rebellion has no future, so why are they still rebelling?

Phillips's actions made the local officials very uncomfortable, and intentionally or unintentionally set up obstacles for him, telling him to quickly send troops to exterminate the thieves. But the more this happens, the more Phillips has to investigate. At his insistence, no matter how powerful the head snake is, he still found clues.

Li Xiang was very appreciative of Phillips' insistence, no wonder the king sent him to deal with this matter, and it was really upright. But before Phillips found a clue, Li Xiang, who seemed to have nothing to do, had already found out the truth.

The truth is also very simple, that is, the government forces the people to rebel. It's just that unlike the ancient government forced the people to rebel, the people here are not only forced to rebel by the officials, but also have a great responsibility for the church.

There is a huge church on the Magic Continent that believes in the creation of the world, believing that this world was created by the creation god, and all races are also the masterpieces of the creation god. Therefore, the spread of this sect is very widespread, not only in the Holy Empire, but also in the Empire of Light, the Orc Empire, and even the Elven Kingdom.

It's just that the forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds, and the church is so large that it also breeds a lot of scum. This is the case in Maple Leaf Province, where the bishop of a church used his power to loot money to the point of madness, and actually abducted and trafficked women and children, and even did it unscrupulously. The local people had no choice but to take the risk, rescue their relatives, and kill the bishop to avenge their revenge. (To be continued.) )
