Chapter 19: The Aftermath
Imperial capital
The back garden of Hongyi Palace
An old man in an embroidered black Xuanwu robe wields a long sword in his hand under the moon.
The leaves falling from the ground danced with the old man's sword as if they were being manipulated by something.
Suddenly, the old man's sword turned and pointed to the pond in the garden, and the flying leaves suddenly rushed into the pond.
"Boom" in the pond exploded several feet high splash, then the old man's hand of the long sword groaned, the old man's wrist shook, "pop pop" fell down the water droplets all exploded, like firecrackers.
The gate of Hongyi Palace was violently pushed open, and an old man in a white nightgown walked out, looked at the old man in black in the garden and shouted: "Old Pei Tou, what are you crazy about at night!"
The old man who was called turned his head to look at the old man in the dressing gown standing at the door and said, "Oh, the old man hasn't rested yet." ”
That's right, these two old men are the Emperor Li Xuan and the sword god Pei Min.
Li Xuan: "Nonsense, who can sleep in the crackling of you at night!"
Pei Min inserted the long sword into the scabbard and said, "Tonight, I felt an extremely pure sword intent, and the most important thing was that kind of artistic conception, I was actually pulled in." ”
Li Xuan frowned and said, "Is it in the territory of my Datang?"
Pei Min pondered and said, "North." ”
Li Xuan: "Northern...... Xiao Chen's journey is not simple, the only thing that can amaze you is the god-level master, do you know who it is, old Pei Tou. ”
Pei Min shook his head and said, "No, it should be a hidden sword cultivator." ”
Li Xuan nodded: "Let Xuan Bing and them take a look, the two of us are ready at any time, if the other party is hostile to Datang, they will be killed on the spot!"
Li Xuan's eyes flashed with a hint of red light, and the white robe danced without wind, although Li Xuan has abdicated for many years, but that kind of domineering momentum that leaks and overwhelms the world is not something Li Tianze can have, Li Xuan is not only the Emperor Taishang but also the Martial Emperor!
Pei Min nodded and smiled: "Yes, I think Wu Laogou will be more excited than I should be hehehe." ”
Li Xuan: "Hmph. ”
Pei Min: "Can you still sleep?"
Li Xuan shook his head and said, "Sleeping is just enjoyment, and there is no need to sleep or not in our realm, what?"
Pei Min: "Let's have a plate?"
Li Xuan: "You have to do it, you are looking for teeth all over the ground"
Pei Min: "Hehe, you still owe me a South China Sea crystal bamboo." ”
Tianjian Mountain
A white-haired old man sat on the top of the peak, sipping tea, squinting slightly at the starry sky in the north and muttering, "Good poetry, good sword..."
A young man in a blue suit flew up from the bottom of the mountain with a long sword, and the young man turned over and fell to the top of the peak, and arched his hand to the old man, "Master." ”
Old man: "Oh, Xiaoqing. ”
Youth: "Master, it's so late, let's rest early." ”
Wu Daozi shook his head and said: "I feel a lot for the teacher tonight, I don't rest, come and sit down, there are not so many rules for the teacher." Saying that, Wu Daozi pointed to Tuan Pu beside him.
The young man arched his hand and said, "Yes, master." The young man walked up to Tuanpu and sat down.
Wu Daozi: "Xiaoqing, your future is limitless, your senior brother is inferior. ”
The young man was shocked: "Master, I ......" Then the young man lowered his head and whispered: "Senior brother is so powerful, how can I surpass him." ”
Wu Daozi shook his head and sighed: "Your senior brother Hongchen's heart is too heavy, this time entering Hongchen is killing and robbing his body!"
The young man on the side was shocked and said, "Then, why didn't the master call the senior brother back." ”
Wu Daozi slowly spoke: "Heaven's will is hard to disobey. ”
Wu Daozi turned his head to look at the young man and said, "I'll teach you another trick for the teacher." ”
As he spoke, Wu Daozi slowly put down the teacup and rose to the sky.
"Long Yuan!" only to hear a dragon groan, a black dragon shadow flew out from behind Wu Daozi.
Wu Daozi pointed his hands together, and the black dragon shadow turned into a black long sword and flew around Wu Daozi.
Wu Daozi Edgeworth pointed to the big mountain road in the distance
"Sword slashes the stars!"
Suddenly, everything changed instantly, and a bright starry sky appeared out of thin air.
The young man looked at the starry sky and muttered, "It's so beautiful..."
Immediately afterwards, a huge streamer appeared, splitting the stars one by one in an instant.
"Click", the starry sky shattered abruptly, and "boom", only to see an unknown mountain in the distance being cut off.
Wu Daozi wore a Taoist robe fluttering down, looked at the young man and said, "You can learn a few percent." ”
The young man scratched his head and said with a smile: "Master, you are too fast to draw the sword, and the apprentice can't see it clearly, but those stars are so beautiful, or you can try again, master." ”
Wu Daozi's face was already dark, and he wanted to retract the words that he was stronger than his senior brother.
Wu Daozi said angrily: "Qing Yingzi, if you don't come up with a teacher today, you are not allowed to sleep tonight." ”
Qing Mingzi howled, "Ahh
Yanbei
The Joyful Palace
Li Chen looked at the ruined walls and the soldiers on the ground, looked at Wang Hu and said: "Tell people to clean up, don't be stingy with the dead guards and have family members, and if you don't have them, you will be rewarded for the wounded, and you will be well healed." ”
Wang Hu arched his hand and said, "Yes, Lord Wang." ”
Suddenly, Li Chen slapped Wang Hu with a palm, Wang Hu flew out upside down, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, Wang Hu slowly got up from the ground and arched his hand to Li Chen: "Thank you, Wangye!" But can the prince talk to the minister next time, so that the minister can be prepared. Wang Hu looked at Li Chen and said with a smile.
Li Chen rolled his eyes and said, "Next time, I will directly shoot your liver for you, and I am not afraid of suffocating myself to death if I hold it for so long a day." ”
Saying that, Li Chen took out two bottles of pills from his sleeve and threw them at Wang Hu and said, "Take them and eat them for the injured guards, and by the way, send them to Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie, so that they can heal their wounds well." ”
Wang Hu: "It's the prince." ”
At this time, Steward Sun ran over wailing, looked at the ruins and wailed: "Lord Wang, it's over, Lord Wang is finished!"
The corners of Li Chen's mouth twitched and said angrily: "Who did you say was finished with Steward Sun?!"
Steward Sun knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly patted his mouth lightly and said, "Slip of the tongue, the prince's mansion is bankrupt!!"
Li Chen: "Bankrupt?"
Steward Sun: "That's right, the prince will reward the guards this time, and the payment for Fa'an plus the maintenance of the collapsed house and daily expenses has no money in the palace treasury." ”
Li Chen waved his hand and said, "Oh, that's okay, I still have a few boxes of gold in my house, you can use them first, and I'll call someone to send the money tomorrow." ”
Steward Sun: "Ah, hmm?!ah, gold, why do you still have it?!"
Li Chen rolled his eyes and said, "Have you ever seen the palace poor?" ”
Steward Sun recalled that every time he told Li Chen that he was bankrupt, Li Chen could always take out several boxes of gold, hiss, thinking about it carefully, he was very afraid, the prince would not secretly mine gold, so if the emperor found out, he would not be able to pick up the skin.
All the gold mines in Datang can only be mined by the royal family, and if there are private diggers, the nine clans will be punished.
Li Chen said, I drew a planet's gold by lottery, and he is short of money? And the world's No. 1 Chamber of Commerce is also his, he is short of money?
Steward Sun's face was embarrassed and said, "Can you spend the gold, the prince......
Li Chen: "How many times have you spent it, can you spend it?"
Steward Sun: "Then Lord Wang, are you secretly mining gold mines?" ”
Li Chen: "Gold mines, who wastes that time, my father explicitly forbids private gold mines, who mines that thing." ”
Steward Sun: "That ......"
Li Chen waved his hand and said, "Don't ask, anyway, there is no shortage of money." ”
Steward Sun didn't ask again when he saw that Li Chen didn't want to tell him.
Li Chen has experienced this incident and knows that he has to strengthen the guards, and it is time to summon Zhao Yun and Lu Bu out.
Yi Hong House
The old bustard grabbed the railing and looked at the direction of the Xiaoyao Palace, and muttered: "There are actually god-level masters in the Xiaoyao Palace, could it be that the sword god Pei Min is here? No, Pei Min's sword is fast and ruthless, it is absolutely impossible to have such an artistic conception, the sword immortal has not gone down the mountain for a long time, who is it, the protector is unlucky today." ”
"Ahem, does the Flower Hall Master want me to die so much?!"
