Kaiyang City was heavily guarded, and there were patrolling city guards everywhere.

It was noon when Muyang returned to Fugui Villa, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Yan Shisan and Gangwa discussing something in the courtyard

Seeing Mu Yang who suddenly appeared outside the door, Yan Shisan howled at the top of his throat and greeted him.

"Muyang, something is wrong, something is wrong. ”

"Tell me, what's the big deal?"

After Mu Yang glanced at Yan Shisan, his eyes fell on the steel baby, and the steel baby walked a few steps with a smile on her face, "Why did you remember to go back to the manor?"

"Come back and see. ”

Muyang stretched out his hand and pinched the little face of the steel baby, and teased: "I haven't seen you for so long, do you miss me?"

The steel baby's face was slightly red, but she still nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

"Hey, Muyang, big brother is talking to you!What do you two mean by this? It's time to flirt and scold, when I'm air?" Yan Shisan shouted dissatisfiedly on the side.

"Who won't let you say it?" Mu Yang glanced at Yan Shisan, "You say yours, I'll listen." ”

"Have you been hiding in the Apocalypse Tower to cultivate these days?" Yan Shisan asked.

"I know you're still asking?"

Cultivation has no years, and it is common for the strength to reach a certain level of retreat and cultivation, Muyang has often hid in the cultivation room to practice since the day he entered the temple, and sometimes he does not come out for a few days, he has been missing for half a month in a row, and it will inevitably cause a lot of suspicion on ordinary people, but the previous elusive habits have laid a good foundation for him, and in order to prepare for the Star Armor Conference after the establishment of Momen, Mu Yang also instructed Gangwa and Yan Shisan that he should focus all his time and energy on cultivation and making the Star Armor, and no one is allowed to disturb him.

In view of these reasons, Yan Shisan did not have any doubts about Muyang's whereabouts in the past half a month.

"Something big has happened in Kaiyang City!" Yan Shisan said: "Half a month ago, the formation master Qishan was assassinated! Have you heard of this?"

"Nope. Mu Yang shook his head, this sentence was not intended to deceive Yan Shisan, he really hadn't heard of it, he had killed the person in the first place, why did he need to hear about it?

Yan Shisan suddenly became interested: "I know that you must not have heard of it, do you know who Qishan is? He is a Five Realms Array Mage, one of the most powerful Array Mages in the Great Xia Army, on the battlefield of the human and demon clans, I don't know how many combat exploits he has made, this time he returned to Kaiyang, he was ready to accept the canonization of the Xia Emperor, how do you know that he was assassinated just two days after he came back, do you know who assassinated him?"

"Canonization?" Muyang asked, "Canonization what?"

"Zhenjun Heavenly Master. ”

Mu Yang was stunned, a little surprised, this information Xinghe did not provide to himself, during the days in Hanlin County, Mu Yang learned about the official rank of the Great Xia Kingdom from Ye Kuishan, and they can be summed up in one sentence: one emperor, two ministers, four countries, six departments, nine kings and eighteen princes.

'One Emperor' is naturally the Xia Emperor, in the Great Xia Kingdom, the imperial power cannot be violated, and the Xia Emperor has supreme authority.

The 'two phases' are the two prime ministers who are in charge of the Heavenly Prison Division and the Divine Prison Division, they are the right-hand men of Emperor Xia, under one person, above ten thousand people, except for Emperor Xia, no one dares to give orders to them.

'Four Kingdoms' refers to four strong people who have cultivated to the Seven Realms, each of them is extremely powerful, and they live in a simple place on weekdays, and there are very few people who have seen them.

The six departments refer to the six departments of 'officials, soldiers, rites, punishments, households, and workers', and the highest official title is Shangshu.

Thereinto.

The Ministry of Officials is in charge of the appointment, dismissal, and evaluation of civil officials.

The military department is in charge of military orders, military administration, conscription, military registration and military registration of officers and soldiers, appointment and dismissal, selection, assessment, rewards and punishments of military attachés, post stations, equipment, ordnance, honor guards, territory surveying and mapping, horse administration, etc.

The Ministry of Rites is in charge of examinations, school education, ceremonies, rituals, banquet food, casting seals, canonizations, entertainment, etc.

The Criminal Department is in charge of criminal law, prisoners, retrials, arrests, etc.

The household department is in charge of the nation's household registration, fiscal revenues and expenditures, budgets, land registers, coinage, taxation, etc.

The Ministry of Industry is in charge of the nation's engineering construction, water conservancy, mountain and forest hunting, ordnance manufacturing, and miscellaneous product manufacturing.

'Nine kings' is talking about the nine princes of the royal family, they are all relatives of the royal family, born nobles, most of these nine princes have no real power, but the bloodline of the royal family allows them to be in a high position without any effort, of course, these princes are also unfathomable cultivation powerhouses, no matter how high the status needs to have enough strength to maintain.

In addition to the nine kings, there are eighteen kings with foreign surnames in the Great Xia Kingdom, who worship the marquis and dominate one side, and are the first gateway to protect the safety of Great Xia, just like eighteen sharp knives that deter the strong enemies around them.

These six layers of high power are the cornerstone of the Great Xia Kingdom, and other official positions are derivatives based on this, and the status has been greatly reduced, but there are exceptions to everything, and the Great Xia Kingdom has additional canonizations and rewards for the generals and cultivators who have made outstanding achievements in battle, and the 'Zhenjun Heavenly Master' is one of the most honorable, if you talk about the status and status, it is still above the eighteen princes.

Muyang didn't expect Qishan to return to Kaiyang City for this reason, and he couldn't help but be secretly glad in his heart.

If Qi Shan really becomes the Heavenly Master of the Zhenjun Army, the speed of improvement in his status is not much worse than that of Pingbu Qingyun, and it will not be so easy to move him when the time comes.

It's no wonder that fifteen days have passed, and the search in Kaiyang City has not yet ended, and within the imperial capital, under the noses of the Qin family, a Five Realm Array mage who is about to be canonized as a 'Zhenjun Heavenly Master' has been assassinated, and the panic and impact caused by it are really too bad.

"Who assassinated him?"

After figuring out the reason for the martial law in Kaiyang City so far, Mu Yang asked pretending not to know.

"Saying it scares you to death!" Yan Shisan said with an excited face: "It's the Demon Lord!"

"Demon Lord?"

Mu Yang was surprised.

"Yes, I didn't expect it, the Demon Lord has infiltrated Kaiyang City!" Yan Shisan said with a sworn voice, his determined expression and tone as if he had seen the scene of the assassination with his own eyes.

"The sixth uncle said it, it is likely to be a demon lord-level powerhouse, not a demon lord. ”

Gangwa couldn't listen to it anymore and corrected.

"What is a Demon Lord-level powerhouse who is not a Demon Lord?" Yan Shisan said unconvinced: "Besides, apart from the Demon Lord, who can sneak into Kaiyang City without being discovered? Who can escape quietly after killing someone? The masters of the Four Holy Lands have searched for more than ten days and have not even had any clues, have you ever seen a powerhouse of this level?"

Gangwa was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer, in terms of understanding of the demon army, she was much worse than Yan Shisan, and in terms of quibbling ability, she was even worse by more than one level.

"Anyway, the sixth uncle didn't say that it was the Demon Lord, so it is not the Demon Lord. Gangwa knew that she couldn't talk about Yan Thirteen, so she moved Yan Chaoge out.

"It won't be the Demon Lord. ”

Seeing that Gangwa was wronged, Mu Yang opened his mouth and said: "There is a great array of demons in Dingtian Mountain, if the demon lord enters the city, as long as he doesn't pay attention to it, even if he exudes a little breath, he will not escape the induction of the big array, besides, as the demon lord, there is no reason to kill Qishan, the Zhenjun Heavenly Master...... You haven't qualified to lure an emperor of the Demon Clan to make a move, right?"

"This ...... Hehe, I deliberately scared you. ”

Yan Shisan was stunned for a long time, and the reason given by Muyang made him speechless, so he had to lick his face and laugh.

Gangwa also smiled, in addition to doing it, she was the one who suffered every time she quarreled with Yan Shisan, and when she saw her man speaking for herself, how could she be unhappy.

Mu Yang had something in his heart, ignored Yan Shisan's hippie smiling face, and after inquiring in detail about the reactions and movements of various forces in the city in the past few days, he accompanied Gangwa to have lunch and rushed to the temple.
