Chapter Twenty-One: The Devil of Wisdom and Demons is Brought to Justice
One
Since Wu Zetian became the emperor, the rebel parties in various places have basically disappeared, and the country has begun to recover rapidly, but the land of Anxi has been repeatedly harassed by the Tibetan barbarians, and the people in the northwest border are not living.
Soon, the Tibetan nobles unscrupulously sent troops to capture the four towns of Anxi, which finally angered the female emperor. In the second year of her longevity, she specially ordered the general Wang Xiaojie to command 300,000 troops and prepare to go to Anxi to drive out the barbarians.
When she was personally selecting the main attack vanguard for Wang Xiaojie, she suddenly had an idea to kill people with a knife. How to kill people with a knife? In fact, it is very simple, that is, to order the return of Wang Naxiang and Fang Dongsheng, and appoint them as the vanguard of the left and right. In this way, she can take this opportunity to easily solve the two of them who are selling for glory.
She knew that those Tibetan barbarians were all brave and good at fighting, and they were very fierce, and the two of them went to Anxi with Wang Xiaojie with Wang Xiaojie as the vanguard of the left and right this time.
When readers see this, they must ask why the dignified Wu Zetian murdered them, right?
The main reason is that they are no longer useful. Also, since they were able to betray Xu Dudu, there was no guarantee that they would not betray her in the future, so they had to die.
After she prepared the holy decree, she ordered the inner chamberlain to send someone to Yangzhou as soon as possible.
Although Anne and the others had long since disappeared in this area, Wu Sansi, Wang Naxiang and Fang Dongsheng still did not give up the idea of excluding dissidents.
"Hmph! It's been so long, why is there still no news of them, has they disappeared from the world? Wu Sansi said to Wang Naxiang and Fang Dongsheng in confusion.
"Yes, we have searched everywhere for all these years, but so far we have found nothing, it is really incomprehensible!" said Wang Na in response.
"There's no reason for that! Fang Dongsheng was also very puzzled.
At this time, a eunuch sent by the inner chamberlain, holding the holy decree in one hand and holding the dust in the other, strode into the governor's mansion, came to Wang Naxiang and Fang Dongsheng's side, and preached in a feminine voice: "His Majesty the God Emperor has a decree. โ
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" all three of them shouted as they knelt before the decree.
"The emperor has made an edict. Recently, the border passes have been tightened, and the Tibetan barbarians have raised troops to invade our Celestial Empire on a large scale for no reason, and have now captured the four towns of Anxi, and their arrogance is very arrogant. The thieves have no way, they trample on my city, kill my people, and deceive people too much, and I can't bear it anymore. Therefore, it is hereby appointed that Wang Naxiang, the general of the quelling chaos, and his deputy Fang Dongsheng are the vanguard of the left and right wings, and they will return to Shendu on the same day and go to Anxi with the general Wang Xiaojie, to resist the enemy's territory, protect our Great Zhou rivers and mountains, and promote the might of our Great Zhou. When Qing waits for victory and returns to the court, I will take on a heavy responsibility and admire this. After the eunuch had finished announcing the decree, he said to them, "The two generals have given thanks!"
"The ministers are grateful. Wang Naxiang raised his hands to take the holy decree, stood up, and said hypocritically, "Please rest assured that His Majesty the Emperor will do his best and die." โ
Fang Dongsheng also stood up and symbolically echoed.
"Congratulations to the two generals, who have once again been reused by His Majesty the Divine Emperor. Wu Sansi got up and said with a smile hidden in his sword, "You know, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! โ
"Oh! Wang Naxiang said cautiously, "The last general and General Fang are just two young generals under your hands, and we are completely dependent on the promotion of the Wudu Governor today, so no matter what position we are in, we are your subordinates, and we will always obey your orders, and we will never have two hearts." โ
Two
"Ha--- ha--- ha! Wu Sansi looked up arrogantly and laughed and said, "The governor of Pontus still has some personal matters to do, so I will be out of company first." โ
"Oh, you are busy, you are the lord and we are all guests, and there is a master who goes out to greet the guests!" said the king, respectfully.
"Hmph! There are many roads outside the plug, and they are extremely dangerous, the two generals should do it themselves!" Wu Sansi said in his words.
"Oh, thank you for the reminder. The king, pretending to be deaf and dumb, answered and sent him out of the house.
"Two generals, the carriage and horses to return to Shendu have been prepared, please leave immediately!" the eunuch saluted.
"Please wait a moment, General Fang and I still have something to say. The king said tactfully.
"Okay, then our family is waiting for the two generals outside the mansion. With that, the eunuch turned around and walked out of the governor's mansion.
"Big brother, what does that old thing mean, why do you call us whenever there is an errand for a war?" Fang Dongsheng questioned Wang Naxiang with a full stomach.
"Hmph! This still needs to be asked! Now you and I have no use for her, this time you and I go to Anxi, I'm afraid we also have a life to go but no life to return! Meritorious achievement, the death of the minister. Wang Naxiang replied with insight into everything, "It seems that you and I are in a catastrophe this time!"
"Since it's inevitable, then if we don't go, we'll be done!" Fang Dongsheng said lightly.
"No way. Wang Naxiang retorted with certainty.
"Why? I know that I have a life to go and I have no life to return, so how dare I dare to go to death? If I want to go to you, I won't go. Fang Dongsheng said emotionally.
"Hmph, what are you talking about? Am I willing to go to that terrible place? Isn't this also forced to be helpless! You have been following me for so long, don't you know what the end of disobedience is?" Wang Naxiang asked him angrily.
"It's not okay to go, it's not okay not to go, so what do you say we should do now?" Fang Dongsheng asked impatiently.
"Don't worry, go back to Luoyang first, I have my own clever plan then, don't worry!" Wang replied confidently.
They arrived in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, and after meeting the female emperor, they began to secretly plan a conspiracy to get rid of the golden cicada.
In order to make this conspiracy more seamless, they actually spent a lot of money to bribe a master of disguise called "Face Changing King", and changed the faces of the two of them and two other soldiers of similar height and shape, and then let these two costumed soldiers go to Anxi for them to die.
Soon, "they" followed Wang Xiaojie's army and marched towards Anxi. However, before the army had fully entered the territory of Anxi, it fought with a cavalry wing of Tubo, and the panicked "Wang Naxiang" and "Fang Dongsheng" were shot into hedgehogs in the fierce battle.
In a blink of an eye, a few years later, when everything returned to calm, Tang Ao and others appeared in the capital in a bright light, and opened a pharmacy called "Wanyaotang", the business was not bad, and they basically lived a worry-free life.
Late at night, Wu Zetian, who was in the middle of the wind and candle, sat expressionlessly on the edge of the gorgeous dragon bed, recalling many scenes of admiring the wind and the moon with Anne and drinking and talking. She really wanted to see Anne again in her lifetime, so she suddenly asked, "Wan'er, do you know where Jin Yao and the others have gone now?"
"Back to Your Majesty's words, the ministers and maids don't know. Shangguan Wan'er replied, "Since you ascended the throne, they have not heard from them at all. โ
"Look for them, I'd love to see them. โ
"Yes, Your Majesty. โ

In the calm and calm, there is also a high probability that there will be storms.
Although Tang Ao and the others have now lived a peaceful life without worrying about food and clothing, they still can't completely get rid of the entanglement between those demons and those two enemies.
At this time, the Black Sea Realm's Holy Monarch Black Dragon and his brother the Vampire Demon Bat King, as well as Miro, the master of the Sewang Realm, discussed in the eerie and terrifying "Shura Palace" how to deal with Zixia and Shang An and their others, as well as how to seize the "Xuantie Diamond" in their hands.
"Everyone must join hands to deal with those stinky immortals. With that, the black dragon stood in front of the three-dimensional image of Zixia and Shang An with great ambition and said, "If we can take the 'Dark Iron Diamond' that can open the wheel of time from the hands of their two sisters, then we can rule over all beings in the immeasurable space." โ
"Big brother, how do you know that the 'Dark Iron Essence Stone' is in the hands of the two sisters?" asked the Vampire Demon Bat King, puzzled.
"What's so difficult about this, if this Holy Monarch doesn't even have this ability, then how can this Holy Monarch rule the Black Sea Realm in the future!" replied the black dragon arrogantly, "Don't forget, this Holy Monarch has the help of the omniscient Dark Demon God, and it is not difficult to find a small stone. โ
"Hmph, but as far as I know, you have taken great pains to find that stone!" said Mirรณ, with a gloomy face, "I think it will not be easy to get the stone!"
"Miro, what do you mean by that?" the black dragon asked angrily.
"It's nothing, I'm just saying what I think, and you don't have to take it personally. Miro said in a weird way.
"You โโ!" The black dragon tried his best to suppress his anger, staring at Miro with a sharp gaze, as if he was going to dismantle him, and the atmosphere was very tense.
"Oh, big brother, don't get angry, dissipate your anger------ dissipate your anger. The Vampire Demon Bat King stepped forward and said, "Since the three of us have now joined hands to conspire for a great cause, we should unite sincerely, why bother hurting the harmony for some trivial things, please put the two brothers first." โ
"Oh, are these three beautiful and indescribable little beauties the main targets we have to deal with?" Miro suddenly shifted his gaze back to the three-dimensional images of Zixia, Shang An, and Anne, and interjected the topic.
"Not bad. The black dragon also took advantage of the situation to calm down and replied consciously.
"Oh, it's a shame, they're so pretty, I don't want to be heavy-handed!" said Mirose.
"What, Brother Miro, do you have a crush on them again?" asked the Vampire Bat King grinning.
"That's right. Mirรณ replied with a lewd face, "I have seen many beautiful women in the world, but it is the first time I have seen such an extraordinary woman." It's really itching my heart!"
"Of course, don't forget, they're all fairies in a million!" the Vampire Bat King echoed in his evil voice.
"Hmph! With that, the black dragon glared at Miro with a contemptuous gaze.
"Who are you talking about who is not promising?!" Miro asked the black dragon angrily.
"This saint is saying that you are not promising, what's wrong. The black dragon suddenly roared loudly, "When is it? You still want to love those men and women, and a plaything like you can't make a big deal." โ
"Hmph! That being the case, you and I have nothing to talk about, and we don't conspire with each other, so I take my leave. With that, Miro turned into a dark cloud and disappeared into the eerie "Shura Palace".
"Hey, Brother Miro------ Miro. โ
"Let it go. โ

Not long after, a horrific serial murder of female corpses occurred in the calm capital, and the people were in panic.
Because the murder happened too bizarrely, it made some people in the market have different opinions. Some people say that this serial murder was the work of a mysterious organization called the "Spirit Snake Society". And some people say that it was a strange and unsightly monster who did it. What's more, he even added fuel and vinegar to say that the monster always came and went without a trace when he committed crimes, and he specialized in catching beautiful girls to practice magic skills, and only a few days later would he find the body of the captured girl in the rocky hill, and even the government had no way to take it.
Soon, this serial murder case of a serial female corpse full of storms in the city reached the ears of the female emperor, which made Long Yan furious, and specially ordered Di Renjie and the top ten arresters in the capital to investigate the case together. But because the case was very bizarre, they investigated for a long time, but still found nothing.
Although they have been intensively investigating the case, the entire capital is still shrouded in a fog of blood and chaos, putting everyone in danger. Some people are so frightened that they don't dare to let their daughter walk out of the door half a step, day or night. What's more, even his little wife was sent back to her parents' house and secretly hidden.
If such a big thing happened, how could he hide it from the nosy Tang Ao and others?
After sunset, Anne and Kang Tai talked about it in the west wing.
"I heard that there have been serial murders in the capital in the past few days, and the dead are all young girls. Anne snuggled into Kangta's arms full of doubts and said, "I also heard that the murderer is a pervert who has come and gone without a trace, so even the government is helpless. โ
In fact, these are all rumors that are difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and the exact identity of the murderer is still a mystery. Kang Tai said incredulously, "Even Di Renjie, who is known as the world's number one detective, it's really strange that Master Di can't solve this case." โ
"Yes!" replied Anne, and then suddenly added, as if remembering something important, "but Xianggong." โ
"What's the matter, lady?"
"I always felt that this murder had something to do with them. โ
"Who?"
"It's the two demons of the Black Dragon and the Vampire Bat King!
"Lady, are you saying that this murder was done by the two big devils together, right?"
"That's right. That's what I thought, don't you think?"
"Who knows? In the absence of conclusive evidence, all accusations are just speculation. Kang Tai replied solemnly.
"Hah, I didn't expect you to have the potential to be a lawyer!" Anne teased Kang Tai with a hippie smile.
"Of course. Kang Tai said proudly and complacently, "If you can find a husband like me, you can steal the fun!"
"Nasty. Anne suddenly raised a slender jade hand, gently slapped Kang Tai's shoulder and said with a smile, "I see that you are Zhu Bajie's ass smearing gouache." โ
"How?"
"Stinky beauty!"
"Well, you dare to say that about your husband, it's so unscrupulous. โ
"Hey, don't forget, I haven't had a wedding with you yet! โ
This also fully shows that you and I are husband and wife, and it doesn't matter whether we hold a wedding or not. โ
"Who said that, I don't want to marry you like this. Besides, don't you feel sorry to get married without a wedding? From ancient times to the present, the marriage of a man and a woman is a major event in life, so how can it be a child's play?"
"What the lady said is reasonable. Kang Tai thought about it carefully and said, "Then we will hold a wedding tomorrow, what do you think?"
Five
Anne did not immediately agree to him, but got up and sat down in front of the bronze mirror, and constantly stroked her face with a pair of jade hands.
"Hey, it's a shame!" said Anne with a sigh, "and in such a blink of an eye, I have entered middle age, and even my face has aged a lot. โ
"No, you're not old at all, and you'll never be the same in my heart. Kang Tai walked up behind Anne and put his hands on her shoulders and said.
"Really?" asked Anne, in a tone peculiar to a mature woman.
"Of course. Kang Tai replied sincerely, "Not only that, but I also think you have more flavor than before." โ
"What does it smell like?"
"Femininity, of course. After that, Kang Tai bent down and kissed Anne affectionately, and then said with a lingering aftertaste, "This smell is so delicious!"
"Nasty! Anne said with a red face.
"Anne, I will officially marry you, please accept my love. Kang Tai suddenly asked the question again and said, "Let's have a wedding tomorrow, what do you think?"
"Well, that's good, but I always feel like something is missing from me. "I don't know how my mother is doing in that 'big birdcage' now, if only her old man could come to our wedding." โ
"Oh, I see, isn't this a trivial matter? I want her to attend our wedding, and it's hard to say, but if we go back to the palace, it's all settled. Kang Tai said as he hugged Anne back into his arms.
"No, since I chose to leave, how can I go back now?"
"It's not what it used to be, my darling. Kang Tai smiled and said, "Besides, trees are dead and people are alive, don't be embarrassed for yourself for the sake of your helpless act! โ
"Oh yes, what a baby, it's not a baby, it's so annoying! Anne said with a shy face.
"Okay------, let's not call it baby, can't we call it a lady instead?"
"In fact, people were really helpless to leave their mothers in the first place. Anne said with some melancholy, "The struggle in the palace is so disgusting, I left the palace to escape all this, but now I have returned here by ghost." It seems that God is destined to arrange it this way, and there is no point in escaping. โ
"Now that you've decided, why be upset?"
"I don't want to go back to that filthy palace, but I really want to see my mother, and I hope that her old man will come to our wedding. Anne was in a dilemma and asked, "Kangtai, my heart is really conflicted, what do you think I should do now?"
"It's not like there's no way, it's up to you how you choose. Kang Tai also said, "The ancients had clouds, how can you have both fish and bear's paws." That is to say, if you want to get one thing, you must first give up another thing, and the two cannot be satisfied at the same time, you can only choose one or the other, which is a specific law that no one can change. โ
"Isn't there no such thing as the best of both worlds?"
"It's hard to say. โ
"Oh, what do you mean by that? Can you make it clear? Don't always care about whether it's good or not. โ
"Okay------, I'll make it clear, it's not okay to stop worrying, don't worry!" Kang Tai smiled and said, "I mean, even if we go into the palace to see our mother and invite her old man to attend the wedding, it doesn't mean that we must stay in the palace, right?"

"Having said that, I still sense that entering the palace this time will bring trouble to our future. Anne reacted strongly, "I don't know why, this feeling is getting stronger and stronger, it seems that my mother and I are inseparable this time!"
"Oh, lady, how do you talk upside down today, one moment saying that God is destined to arrange it like this, and it is meaningless to escape, and the next time you say that you have nothing to do with your mother. I really don't understand what you're thinking?"
"In that case, will you marry me?" asked Anne, a little aggrieved.
"Of course I'm going to get married. Kang Tai suddenly picked up Anne with emotion, kissed her deeply again, and then said, "You just didn't say anything just now, don't be angry, I was wrong." โ
"Fool, I'm not angry, look at you in a hurry. Anne stretched out two lotus-like arms and put her arms around Kang Tai's neck and said, "Xianggong, as long as I know that you love me, that's enough." โ
Suddenly, with a "creak", the door was pushed open halfway, and Tang Ao walked in from outside the door. When the two saw someone coming in, they hurriedly pushed each other aside in fright, and couldn't say a word with red faces.
Tang Ao knew that he was too rude, and he didn't knock on the door before entering other people's rooms, and he felt very embarrassed for a while.
"Oh! I'm sorry! Big brother forgot to knock on the door before entering, it's so rude, shouldn't ------ shouldn't!" After Tang Ao finished saying something apologetic, he was about to leave, but was left behind by the two of them.
"Big brother, do you have something to talk to us about?" asked Anne suddenly.
"Yes. Tang Ao replied.
"What's the matter? Kang Tai asked.
"Oh, actually, it's nothing, it's just that everyone is talking about the serial female corpse murder case in the living room, and I want to ask if you would be interested in getting involved. Tang Ao replied bluntly.
"Of course you're interested, what about you? โ
"I listen to the lady. โ
"Then let's come together!" After that, Tang Ao took Anne and Kang Tai out of the door and came to the living room, where they found that everyone was sitting together and had begun to talk about this serial murder case that shocked the whole capital.
"Hey, third sister, third brother-in-law, you finally came out, I thought you were only concerned about falling in love, and you didn't want to come out to talk about this murder with everyone!" Shang An said with a hippie smile.
"We have that! The second sister said seriously. Anne explained.
"Yes, how could it be? The second sister was too worried. Kang Tai also stepped forward to respond.
"Alright, you guys don't say those sour things anymore, come and sit down!" Shang An waved at them and said.
After that, the three of them all sat next to Shang An and talked with everyone about the suspects, criminal motives, criminal rules and methods of this serial female corpse murder case, as well as how to arrest the murderer and other information related to the investigation of the case.
After a heated discussion, everyone finally adopted Anne's idea and her plan to repair the plank road openly and secretly cross Chen Cang. But this plan has to be a bait to attract the enemy, and Anne volunteered to choose a dangerous job, that is, to be a bait, in order to make her strategy better carry out according to her own ideas. Although her choice was strongly opposed by Kang Tai, the two argued to the end and still failed to convince each other, and she was still stubborn.
The sky gradually darkened, and the usual bustling night market was as silent as death. The stalls that should be closed are closed, the doors that should be closed, and the whole street is in shambles. Needless to say, people must be frightened by that mysterious and terrifying pervert.
In the moonlight, Anne dressed as a homeless flower seller, carrying a basket full of peonies, walking alone on the chaotic street, waiting for the arrival of the murderer. It wasn't long before a strange cloud fell from the sky and spread around her. When all this is gone, the murderous murderer finally appears. It turns out that this terrifying pervert is Miro, the master of the Sewang Realm.
Suddenly, Kang Tai, Zixia and Shang An, who were ambushed on the inside of the roof, rushed down together, and joined forces with Annie to attack him unprepared and sealed the demon spirit with four pre-prepared spells, and captured him.
