Chapter 442: Cutting the Grass and Eradicating the Roots

In the evening, the imperial study of the Luoyang Palace in the capital

Outside, the night sky was lightning and thundering, Gonggong Hong stood at the door and stood down, and the jade-faced fox inside bowed and stood down, reporting something to Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian looked at the book of resignation, and the jade-faced fox bowed down and said, "Weichen personally watched her sign it and swore a poisonous oath."

Wu Zetian nodded and said, "Well, okay, then she's leaving, right?"

The jade-faced fox hurriedly said, "I've already brought her back."

Wu Zetian nodded and said, "Very good, then the next thing depends on you, the national teacher."

The jade-faced fox bowed down and said, "It is the duty of Weichen to share worries for the emperor."

Wu Zetian nodded and said, "Well, you have also worked hard, national teacher, so let's go back and rest first."

The jade-faced fox hurriedly bowed and said, "It's the emperor, Weichen is retiring." As he spoke, he bowed and withdrew.

Gonggong Hong stood at the door and watched the figure of the jade-faced fox go away, turned around and walked inside, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, ......."

Wu Zetian looked at the lightning and thunder outside the door, and sighed, "Gonggong Hong."

Gonggong Hong hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty."

Wu Zetian looked at the lightning and thunder outside the door, and pondered: "Look at the thunder and lightning all night, there is no rest, is it a sign of great change?"

Gonggong Hong was surprised: "Your Majesty."

Wu Zetian was silent, and the white light from the lightning was reflected on his face, looking unusually calm.

In the evening, the Beijing Luoyang Xiangwang Mansion loves the snow room

Aixue was lying on the bed in a coma, her face was pale, Sister Xiu sat on the edge of the bed to take care of it, and Li Dan and his wife, beauty, Qingnu, Lux, Xiaoyu and other people gathered around the bed, looking solemn.

The princess hurriedly said, "Why hasn't she woken up yet?"

Sister Xiu said gloomily, "I hope she doesn't wake up so soon, so as not to suffer this boundless pain." As he spoke, his eyes moistened, and everyone was gloomy......

After a while, everyone left, and only Sister Xiu, Beauty, and Qingnu were left in the room, and Aixue was still in a coma......

Sister Xiu said, "I have already given her the pill, and she will not wake up until noon tomorrow."

The beauty was surprised, "You're going to take her away while she's unconscious?"

Sister Xiu nodded and said, "I have already sent a message to the third sister and the nurse, and I will fight with them outside the city tomorrow morning, and then we will take her back to the demon world."

The beauty was surprised, "Back to the Demon Realm?"

Sister Xiu nodded and said, "The human world is no longer suitable for us to stay, only the demon world is the place where we should stay."

The beauty hurriedly said, "That...... So what about LONGi? Without Aixue, I really can't imagine, and there is Qingxuguan, how can we deal with them?"

Sister Xiu hesitated and said, "Now I just want to take care of Aixue, I really don't want to care about other things, I'm tired too."

The beauty was taken aback, Sister Xiu pondered, turned to look at the two of them, "Beauty, Qingnu, maybe I really shouldn't leave now, but I really don't worry about Aixue, here, I'll leave it to you...... Sister Xiu knows, in fact, in your hearts, you all like LONGi very much, these days, you have also helped Aixue a lot, Sister Xiu thank you."

The beauty hurriedly said, "Sister Xiu, don't talk about these ......."

Sister Xiu interrupted, "After we leave, Longji will ask you to take care of it, and we must not let him have anything to do...... I think that's what Aixue is going to say."

The beauty was sad for a while, and said urgently, "Sister Xiu......"

In the evening, the capital Luoyang Liang Palace

The door of Wu Chongxun's room was closed, and the quilts inside were neatly stacked, but there was no one in the room......

At this time, I saw Liu coming from the corridor with two maidservants, one with a lantern and the other with a quilt in his hand.

The three of them walked to the door, and Liu knocked on the door and said, "Xun'er, are you asleep? Xun'er."

Seeing that no one responded, he hurriedly knocked on the door again and said, "Xun'er, it's my mother, it's cold, my mother will bring you a bed quilt, you open the door."

After knocking loudly a few more times and not hearing back, he wondered, "What's wrong? The door is locked, and people should be inside." After a moment's thought, he exclaimed, "Could it be ...... Could it be that he

's illness again?" Hurriedly turned around and ordered, "Quick, quickly call the prince over."

The maidservant with the lantern hurriedly said, "It's the princess." Hurriedly put down the lantern and turned to run.

Liu Shi watched the maid run away, and was anxious for a while, and said hurriedly: "Xun'er, don't scare your mother, Xun'er."

After a while, Wu Sansi hurriedly came over with a few family members and followed the maidservant, and hurriedly said, "Madam, what's wrong?"

Liu Shi hurriedly said, "Lord Wang, look, what's wrong with Xun'er? The door was locked inside, and I called out to him and didn't respond, could it be ...... I'm sick."

Wu Sansi was shocked, and hurriedly slapped the door vigorously and said, "Xun'er, Xun'er, open the door, it's my father." But there was not the slightest sound.

Wu Sansi was shocked, and hurriedly ordered, "Quick, knock the door open for me."

The two family members hurriedly said, "It's the prince." Hurriedly slammed into the door, knocked it twice, and slammed it open.

Wu Sansi led everyone to rush in, lit the candles and took a look, but he was shocked to see that the quilts on the bed inside were neatly folded.

Everyone looked for it, and the housekeeper hurriedly said, "Lord Wang, the young master is not in the room."

Wu Sansi was surprised: "Not in the room? So where did he go?" After looking around, thinking for a while, he hurriedly checked the window, but found that one of the windows was unlocked, and suddenly realized, "No wonder."

Liu Shi hurriedly said, "Xun'er, he's out?"

Wu Sansi comforted: "Don't worry, it's okay, Xun'er must have sneaked out of the game greedily, maybe he was afraid that we would find out and blame him, so he sneaked out of the window."

Liu Shi was surprised: "Sneaking out? What are you doing in the middle of the night?"

Wu Sansi persuaded: "Don't worry so much, just go out, and ask him when you come back tomorrow, let's go back and rest, huh?"

Liu was helpless for a while......

At night, the capital Luoyang Qingxu view the secret room

In the secret room, the four generals and Guo Shimei stood bent over, as if waiting for someone.

At this time, he saw the stone gate rattling, all the demons were startled, and they hurriedly stood up, and the jade-faced fox hurriedly walked in from outside.

The demons hurriedly bowed and said, "My subordinates have seen the king."

The jade-faced fox sat on the throne above, looked at the demons, and said, "Are they all here?"

The red evil bowed down and said, "Back to the king, it's all here."

The jade-faced fox nodded, "Okay."

Mei Niang was puzzled for a while, and said cautiously, "King, is there anything urgent about you summoning us so late?"

The jade-faced fox said seriously: "This matter is very important, so up to now, only this seat and the red evil and Guo Shimei know, the red evil, you tell everyone."

Chi Xie bowed down and said, "It's the king, the second sister, the third brother, and the fourth brother, do you know why that Bai Aixue suddenly appeared in her original form at the birthday banquet?"

Mei Niang wondered, "Why?"

Chi Evil said: "Because all this is a trap set by the king, the king asked Uncle Shi to continue to stay in the Xiangwang Mansion, which is just to confuse them and distract their attention, and Brother Guo's persuasion at the birthday banquet is also all about suspicion to attract their attention, and the medicine that really made her show her original form was put in the palace maid's wine jug, this medicine was cast by the king, as soon as it touched the skin, the medicinal power immediately penetrated into the skin, and it was no different from drinking it from the mouth."

Mei Niang was surprised: "So, that palace maid put the wine on that Bai Aixue, and she was also drugged?"

The red evil nodded and said, "So she thought that she would be able to escape without eating or drinking, but before she knew it, she was still hit and showed her original form at the birthday banquet."

Mei Niang admired: "The king is wise, and his subordinates admire."

The jade-faced fox sneered, "Although this seat made her appear in her original form, that old woman still trusted Li Longji so much and promised to let her go."

Mei Niang was surprised: "Let it go? The king finally caught her and let her go? It's too cheap for her."

The jade-faced fox said hatefully, "Cheap? How could this seat be so casual and cheap her, but this seat didn't expect this old woman to be so ruthless."

Mei Niang was surprised: "Ruthless?"

Playback: In the imperial study, the jade-faced fox said, "...... Don't be careful."

Wu Zetian was shocked for a while, hesitated and wondered, "That national teacher, do you have any good countermeasures?"

The jade-faced fox thought for a moment and said, "Since the princess of the county is a fox spirit, then she must be more than one, and the people around her may also be fox spirits."

Wu Zetian was shocked: "The people around you? You mean the proprietress of Shilixiang, Sister Xiu?"

The jade-faced fox nodded and said, "Yes, according to Wei Chen's observation of Shili Xiang, there is indeed a demonic aura in it......

Wu Zetian was surprised: "Demon energy? Could it be that Sister Xiu is also a vixen?"

The jade-faced fox thought for a moment, bowed down and said, "Don't hide it from the emperor, this Shilixiang Weichen has been paying attention to it for a long time, and Weichen can be sure that this Xiu sister is also a fox spirit, and her relationship with this Bai Aixue is extraordinary."

Wu Zetian was surprised: "Extraordinary...... Then, according to the national teacher, what should I do so that Da Zhou does not follow in the footsteps of Shang?"

The jade-faced fox pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, if you fight a snake, you will not die, but suffer from it, Your Majesty, you let them go today, they are monsters, and they will never be grateful to the Emperor for your kindness, and it will not be long before they will resentment and come to retaliate, so we will definitely beat the snake to death, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and leave no future troubles."

Wu Zetian was surprised: "What does the national teacher mean?"

The jade-faced fox bowed down and said, "The emperor is merciful and can't bear to make a move, but Weichen is a cultivator, and he has taken it as his responsibility to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and he is willing to help the emperor get rid of this trouble."

Wu Zetian was surprised: "Are you going to kill Sister Xiu and Aixue? Can you really kill them?"

The jade-faced fox bowed down and said, "As long as the emperor decrees, Weichen should do his best to live up to the holy will."

Wu Zetian was taken aback, and he made up his mind and said, "Okay, for the sake of the Great Zhou, I have no choice but to do this, National Teacher."

The jade-faced fox bowed and said, "The minister is here."

Wu Zetian commanded: "I will send 1,000 elite soldiers to help you get rid of the demon, you must get rid of these two fox spirits, only succeed, not fail."

The jade-faced fox was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Obey."

Mei Niang was surprised: "A thousand elite soldiers? Won't they be able to fly with wings?"

The jade-faced fox glared at Mei Niang and said, "It's hard to fly with wings? You forget, they are demons, and these thousand elite soldiers who can only crawl on the ground can fly up to the sky to chase them?"

Mei Niang was embarrassed for a while, and the jade-faced fox took out a token from her side and said, "Unintentional, Mei Niang."

Mei Niang, unintentionally bowed and said, "My subordinates are here."

The jade-faced fox commanded: "This seat predicts that they will go out of the city from the west gate tomorrow and join those remnants of the demon world, this is the talisman to mobilize those 1,000 elite soldiers, and you will use this talisman to mobilize the army early tomorrow morning, ambush them in a critical place, and wait for them to come."

Wuxin, Mei Niang hurriedly bowed down and said, "It's the king." He took the talisman and stepped aside.

The jade-faced fox continued, "Red Evil."

The red evil bowed and said, "The subordinates are here."

The jade-faced fox commanded, "You immediately gather the Demon Killers outside the city, and tomorrow you and Mei Niang have no intention of acting together."

The Red Evil hurriedly bowed down and said, "It's the Great King."

He said fiercely, "King, what about me and Brother Guo?"

The jade-faced fox looked at the two of them, and with a move of his hand, he conjured up a bronze mask, and said, "Guo Shimei, you put on this mask and assist Chi Evil, Wuxin and Mei Niang together with the fierce evil."

Guo Shimei took the mask, bowed down fiercely and said, "It's the king."

The jade-faced fox looked at everyone and continued, "If you succeed in getting rid of them tomorrow, then the few remaining mortals will not be worried, you must keep an eye on them, and you must not let them run away again."

The demons hurriedly bowed down and said, "It's the king."

The jade-faced fox nodded, "Very good." The corners of his mouth showed a slight sneer, and he said hatefully, "I'll see how you escaped from my palm......

Early the next morning, the west gate of Luoyang, the capital

Wuxin and Mei Niang led a team of heavily armed troops to rush out of the city gate and go straight out of the city...... quietly

Hidden in the woods on both sides of an official road, he bent his bow and arrows, and his sword was unsheathed.

At this time, I saw that the Red Evil, the Fierce Demon, and Guo Shimei also came from the mountain with about two or three hundred Demon Realm killers and ambushed them together.

The general looked at the strange dress of those people and wondered, "General, who are they?"

Mei Niang said, "They are here to help us round up the demons, you don't have to pay attention to them."

The general hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes."
