In the palace, Li Jian paced back and forth in the palace.

The matter of the Heavenly Dao Hidden Scripture Pavilion gave him a lot of headaches, originally he just wanted to get in touch and have a good relationship, but he didn't want Ling Hao to not buy it at all, and even if he destroyed the plaque of the "First Pavilion in the World", he also killed the eunuch he sent.

What he didn't know was that when the eunuch faced Ling Hao, his attitude was as arrogant as if he wanted to go to heaven, even if he was killed, he would be innocent.

No one told him this, so he now had a feeling of being slapped in the face.

Above the court, many ministers quarreled, and many people thought that the dignity of the royal family should not be offended, and the pavilion master of the Heavenly Dao Scripture Pavilion had gone too far and must take revenge.

There are also some people who think that it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them, and the pavilion master of the Heavenly Dao Scripture Pavilion is not an ordinary person, and it is not a good thing to have a grudge, it is better to turn a big thing into a small matter.

The main battle faction was headed by the prime minister and had a very radical attitude, while the main peace faction was headed by King Li Chang and tended to be conservative.

From the chief eunuch, Li Jian learned some information about the Heavenly Dao Scripture Pavilion, and he also knew that the Heavenly Dao Scripture Pavilion was not simple, otherwise he would not have sent someone to send the plaque of "The First Pavilion in the World" at the beginning.

If he and the Heavenly Dao Hidden Scripture Pavilion Master are not dead, it will be fine if he can get rid of the other party, but once he can't get rid of it, I am afraid that the entire Zhenlong Dynasty will be destroyed by his own hands.

However, some ministers are not unreasonable, if they turn a blind eye and do not use any means of retaliation, where will the face of the royal family be put in the future? What face will there be to rule the Zhenlong Dynasty?

At worst, it's a matter of face, and at worst, it's a matter of shaking the foundation of rule.

In a dilemma, it is no wonder that he is worried.

"Your Majesty, Lord Zhou Yuanqing of the Shuntian Hidden Scripture Pavilion asks to see you. "A little eunuch came in to report.

Although Zhou Yuanqing has not asked about political affairs for a long time, and he has been running the Shuntian Scripture Pavilion with all his minds, the pavilion master of the Shuntian Scripture Pavilion was appointed by the emperor himself after all, and he still has to be called "Lord Zhou" in terms of title.

Hearing that Zhou Yuanqing asked to see him, Li Jian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Hurry up and invite Lord Zhou in." ”

The little eunuch nodded yes and slowly retreated.

After a while, Zhou Yuanqing entered the hall and was about to salute, but saw Li Jian waving his hand, "Zhou Aiqing doesn't need to be polite." ”

After speaking, Li Jian said anxiously: "Zhou Aiqing is here, but is it urgent to solve the widow?"

"Your Majesty is talking about the Heavenly Dao Hidden Scripture Pavilion?" Zhou Yuanqing asked rhetorically.

"Exactly. Li Jian nodded, and roughly mentioned the argument between the two factions in the court.

Zhou Yuanqing listened very seriously, and it wasn't until Li Jian finished speaking that he spoke: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is here for this matter. As His Majesty said, the master of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is not trivial, and he cannot be easily offended, but the majesty of the royal family cannot be damaged. ”

"Oh?" Li Jian frowned, "What is Zhou Aiqing's plan?"

Zhou Yuanqing was silent for a long time, and then said: "As far as Wei Chen knows, the pavilion master of the Heavenly Dao Hidden Scripture Pavilion is also a high-minded and arrogant person. Wei Chen is willing to send a war letter to the lord of the Heavenly Dao Hidden Scripture Pavilion in the name of the Shuntian Hidden Scripture Pavilion, if he wins against him, the royal majesty will naturally be able to preserve, not only to combat his arrogance, but also to make him have nowhere to vent his anger. ”

"In the name of the Shuntian Hidden Scripture Pavilion, send a war letter to the Lord of the Heavenly Dao Hidden Scripture Pavilion?" Li Jian thought for a moment and suddenly shook his head, "No, the widow heard that the Heavenly Dao Hidden Scripture Pavilion has a very powerful exercise secret book, and the Shuntian Hidden Scripture Pavilion may not be an opponent." ”

Of course, Zhou Yuanqing thought about what Li Jian said, but he didn't care much, "Your Majesty, not to mention whether the scriptures such as "Wordless Heavenly Book", "Creation Heart Sutra", and "Mixed Yuan Danjue" in the Heavenly Dao Scripture Pavilion are true or false, even if they are true, we may not have no chance of winning." ”

"What do you say?" Li Jian suddenly became interested.

Zhou Yuanqing organized his words slightly, and then said: "Since we are going to challenge, the rules of the competition are naturally formulated by us, we only need to play to our strengths and avoid weaknesses, and it is not easy to win the Heavenly Dao Hidden Scripture Pavilion?"

"Promote strengths and avoid weaknesses?" Li Jian lowered his head and thought for a while, "You mean, we don't compare the exercises with him, but with other scriptures?"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Zhou Yuanqing nodded, "Astronomy and geography, historical biographies, mathematics, scriptures in these aspects, we want to compare to the Heavenly Dao Scripture Pavilion." ”

Li Jianda was overjoyed, clapped his hands and praised: "Clever plan!

Soon he frowned again, "Although this plan is good, I am afraid that the other party will not take the bait, if he is unwilling to accept the challenge, won't we fall short?"

"Your Majesty rest assured, Wechen has a way to let him accept the challenge, but Wechen hopes that His Majesty can preside over this competition. Zhou Yuanqing said in a flat tone.

"As long as you have a way to get him to accept the challenge, the widow will actively cooperate. Li Jian hurriedly assured.

......

Ling Hao didn't know that someone was trying to challenge him by all means, if he knew, he would definitely be very emotional, sure enough, someone was sitting at home, and disaster came from the sky.

Tiandu City was far more unpeaceful than he imagined, and when he was near Yunxia Bay, even if the Hidden Scripture Pavilion was sandwiched between the territory of the Zhenlong Dynasty and the Dragon Clan, there were not so many messy things.

After coming to Tiandu City, a lot of troubles came to him before he figured out what was going on, which was very different from when he was in Anyang City and near Yunxia Bay.

With his current cultivation, he is not worried that someone will be unfavorable to him, but troubles appear one after another, which is also a very troublesome thing.

When the Scripture Pavilion was not opened, even if someone wanted to come to the battle book, Ling Hao would not be able to receive it, so he was quite idle for the time being.

It wasn't until the next day, when the Scripture Pavilion opened, that Ling Hao received a letter with the words "Challenge Book" written on it.

"Someone wants to challenge me?" Ling Hao frowned.

With a thought, he did not open it, but in front of everyone, a flame condensed and burned the challenge book to the ground.

Just kidding, what kind of person is he Ling Hao? Think whoever wants to challenge can challenge him? That's too much to look down on him!

Only by showing a very disdainful look will there be no people who want to challenge him one after another.

The person who delivered the letter was sent by Zhou Yuanqing, and he himself did not come in person, but his disciple Zeng Wentao was mixed in the queue waiting to enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.

Seeing that Ling Hao didn't even look at it, a ball of fire burned the challenge book to the ground, and Zeng Wentao almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood.

"I'm so angry! I just don't take the master in my eyes!" Zeng Wentao was secretly angry.

Ling Hao's face was as usual, as if nothing had happened.

After collecting everyone's spars, he turned around and returned to the Scripture Pavilion.

The next day, Li Sining came to the Heavenly Dao Scripture Pavilion again, because she was queuing up very early, so she was the first few people to enter the Scripture Pavilion.

After getting a copy of "Mending Heaven", she didn't look through it for the first time, but waited for Ling Hao to enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and sit on the jade chair before she walked over and sat on another jade chair.

After hesitating for a moment, she spoke: "Senior, I heard that you have a conflict with my father?"
