The ninth year of Jingtai in the Great Jin Dynasty, June 14.

It has been a full day since Chen Yuan ascended to the position of Heavenly Divine Envoy of the Heavenly Survey Division, and everyone in the capital who should know and those who should not know know knows about it.

Chen Yuan's limelight was unmatched for a while.

No

To be precise, after Chen Yuan returned to the capital from Liangzhou, his limelight was incomparable, and he was at the center of the discussions of idlers in the capital, and he could be called a man living on the 'hot search'.

Not to mention that everyone pays attention to him, but there are definitely not a few who pay attention to him.

For a time, the capital shook again.

Chen Yuan himself felt that the people of the capital were numb....

And this, in the eyes of some people, is far from reaching the peak, the previous hustle and bustle in the capital, and the information from the palace can basically make people sure that the emperor intends to recruit Chen Yuan as his son-in-law!

The eldest princess Pingyang, who has always been very resistant to getting married, did not ask anyone to clarify because of this matter, which is obviously a sign that good things are about to happen.

Counting the fact that Chen Yuan was named the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, and now he has become the Heavenly Surveyor's Heavenly Character Divine Envoy, it is even more reverie.

Is the emperor preparing for the recruitment of a son-in-law?

If that's the case, this Chen Yuan will be amazing, and it is very likely that he will become a peerless figure at the level of a real pillar country in the court in the future.

It made many people who saw through this matter envious.

has the emperor's appreciation, great power, and a reputation for the mighty rivers and lakes, and can also be assisted by a wife who is both civil and military, and has both ability and political integrity.

Isn't this a winner in life?

But Chen Yuan, who is envied by so many people, has never thought so, the higher he stands, the worse he falls, and he must be cautious in his words and deeds during these few days in the capital.

This is especially true under the premise that you don't plan to marry Binh Duong.

He could already imagine the scene when Jingtai was furious.

As a courtier, he disobeys the holy will, I am afraid that there are really few people in the court who dare to do this, but he has no choice, he does not want to be the dog of the Sima family.

He wanted Sima's family to be his dog.

You can't go to Jingtai, and you are forced to make an oath!

During this day, in addition to deepening his friendship with several divine envoys and understanding some of the yamen and powers of the Heaven Survey Division, Chen Yuan was still planning for himself.

With his current status and power, it was very easy to find out about Jiuhe River, Longmendu, and Yanshan.

He had an understanding of Jiuhejiang before, although his understanding was one-sided, but there was no need to be too deep to take the opportunity, his main purpose was still on Longmendu and Yanshan.

As the name suggests, the main structure of the mountain is very hard rock, and it is said that it was once a cherished mine, but it has long been hollowed out.

However, the texture is still very hard, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the confluence of nine rivers in this place.

Longmendu, on the other hand, is located in the rocky mountain river, and its origin is related to the second proverb, the second sentence is 'June 15 carp fragrance'.

According to his research, every year in June, the carp in the nine rivers gather, especially on June 15, although the fish are not only carp, but the carp is the most abundant, and it is also more popular among the people.

Therefore, in this season, it is the time when the people on both sides of the river begin to fish for carp, and this time is also the time when carp is the fattest.

It will attract the people of Lin'an Mansion to go.

The carp gathers, and it will jump from the nine rivers to the nine rivers, and the location is in a place where the water gathers in the rock mountain, and it has the nickname of Longmendu.

At the beginning, when those carp rushed to jump over the dragon gate, it also attracted the attention of many people in the rivers and lakes, thinking that there might be treasures here, but after careful searching, they did not find any treasures, and there were only mud below.

Gradually, after many years of development, the basic mountain Longmendu is a large gathering of ordinary people.

Because the carp jumping over the dragon gate is an allusion that has been handed down, it is regarded as auspicious, and there are also many young men and women who make love on the occasion of admiring the moon, which is equivalent to a lantern festival.

However, this is just what most people think, at least under the guidance of chance, Chen Yuan understands that those carp scrambling to leap over the dragon gate on the night of the full moon must be more than that simple.

It is likely to be related to the Dragon Ball guided by chance.

And tomorrow is June 15th!

Chen Yuan naturally couldn't be late, he didn't have a specific division of responsibilities now, and he was in a high position, so he was very idle now, and no one would take care of him.

Even if he had, he would have refused with injuries.

decided to go, Chen Yuan did not hesitate, late will change, anyway, staying in the capital is nothing, it is better to go and see this famous Longmendu.

Just as Chen Yuan was about to leave, another familiar guest came to his mansion.

is Zhang Yantong's second daughter, Zhang Wanshu.

"Why is the second sister here?"

Chen Yuan invited him to the mansion and ordered someone to serve tea.

Zhang Wanshu said with some concern:

"I heard from my father, you accidentally suffered some injuries two days ago, how is it now, is there any serious problem?"

"It's just a small injury, and the second sister is worried."

Chen Yuan smiled.

"Oh."

Second Sister Zhang answered, her eyes lowered, she didn't know what she was thinking, Chen Yuan knew that Zhang Wanshu might have something to do when she saw this, and immediately asked directly:

"Second sister is here this time, what's the matter, right?"

"Hmm."

She tapped her head.

"If there is anything Chen can help, he will definitely not be stingy to help." When the other party comes, it must be for him, and he will not refuse if he can.

Not to mention the friendship that Second Sister Zhang had given him a rune before, just for the sake of Zhang Xuan and Zhang Yantong's face, Chen Yuan would also help him.

It's just that she really can't figure it out, with Zhang Yantong, a divine envoy, what place can the other party ask for him?

"Really?"

Second Sister Zhang raised her head and looked at him with hope.

"Really."

"Don't lie to me?"

Seeing that Second Sister Zhang showed this little daughter posture in front of him for the first time, Chen Yuan couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly said:

"Second sister, don't worry, I will never lie to you."

Zhang Wanshu hesitated for a moment and whispered:

"I have always grown up in the capital, rarely been to the field, a while ago I heard from the housekeeper in the house, tomorrow in Lin'an Mansion there will be a lantern festival, and the carp jumping over the dragon gate of the good scene, I want to go to see it....

I heard that this time the Dragon Gate is the grandest in the past ten years, I.... I don't want to miss it. ”

As she spoke, Zhang Wanshu's face suddenly turned red.

After all, she also knows very well that her daughter's family invites men to see this kind of lantern festival together, which is a little.... Shame, but who called Chen Yuan this guy who has not been enlightened?

She didn't look for him, and he kept pretending to be deaf and dumb.

The words she heard outside the door before had already made her firm in her mind, even if the capital said that Chen Yuan would become a colt, as long as he was unwilling in his heart, she believed it.

"This...."

Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.

Second Sister Zhang would actually invite him to Lin'an Mansion, and the destination was Longmendu!

His main concern is not in the other party's invitation, but in this destination, how.... How could it be such a coincidence? As soon as he had this idea, the other party actually came!

He couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, and his thoughts were scattered.

He was completely sure that no one would know about his idea of going to Lin'an, which also proved that this matter was indeed a coincidence.

Even if he hadn't been guided by that chance, would he have been able to get it?

Heavenly?

No, it shouldn't be.

He is not a fun-seeking character, and if there is no guidance from chance, there is a high probability that he will refuse to go to Lin'an Mansion.

He is already a suspicious character, and this coincidence really makes him a little suspicious.

"What's wrong? You.... You just said you wouldn't lie to me. ”

Second Sister Zhang looked at Chen Yuan's stunned face, thinking that he didn't want to agree.

"Oh... Not.... Nothing, just a few things that came to mind. Chen Yuan quickly turned his mind around and was not so surprised.

"The guards in the house can't get out of the house for a few days, so..."

Chen Yuan stared at Zhang Wanshu and smiled.

Can't get out of it?

This reason is really a bit lame, as a third-grade official of the current dynasty, how can Miss Qianjin not be able to draw a few guards? However, he didn't debunk the other party, but just said:

"Oh."

"Then you might as well come with me."

"I...."

"You just said you wouldn't lie to me."

Staring at the other party's big watery eyes, Chen Yuan sighed lightly, if it were someone else, he wouldn't even care about it at all, but Second Sister Zhang was different after all.

"It's okay to go together, but you have to listen to me in everything."

There shouldn't be any danger on this trip, although Second Sister Zhang's cultivation is only Ning Gang, and it is not a burden, and she has already agreed before, and it is not a man's doing.

Let's go for it.

Anyway, his divine envoy has already arrived, and he will leave the capital in a short time.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, I'll do whatever you tell me to do, and I won't trouble you." Second Sister Zhang's eyes widened, and her face was full of joy.

"Then the second sister will go back and prepare first, and we will leave later, so as not to delay the time."

"No, I'm ready."

Zhang Wanshu chuckled.

Chen Yuan: "......"

......

......

Princess's House.

Princess Pingyang's face was cold, her fingers moved slowly on the strings, and a solemn rhythm enveloped the entire mansion, making many maidservants tremble.

Since the 'palace family banquet' a few days ago, they could see that the eldest princess was very unhappy, especially after a trip to Shuanghe Temple.

After a long time, Princess Pingyang's fingers plucking the strings stopped, but the sound of the piano still echoed.

There was no one in the entire small pavilion except Princess Pingyang, but she turned her gaze to the rear.

"See Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

"What?"

The man dressed in black knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice:

"Back to His Royal Highness, according to the news found by his subordinates, Chen Yuan and Zhang Wanshu, the daughter of Zhang Yantong, went out of the city together."

"Zhang Wanshu...."Pingyang frowned:

"What are you going to do?"

"From the news found out by Zhangfu, it is inferred that I should go to Lin'an Mansion to enjoy fishing."

"Longmendu?"

"Yes."

"Hongu knows."

Princess Pingyang had no other expression, and was very cold from beginning to end.

"News has come from Liangzhou that a group of xenomorphic war horses have disappeared in the Beiliang Military Horse Farm some time ago, and His Majesty seems to be investigating this matter."

"Hmm."

"The Great Prince...."

The man in black kept reporting to Princess Pingyang about some recent situations in the capital and the world, quite a part, sitting at home, knowing the world's affairs.

"Anything else?"

"There is an abnormality in the Heavenly Demon Hall of the Blood State and the Liangshan Shuibo Village, according to the news that has been transmitted back, the two state officials of the imperial court in the Blood State.... and they were slain, and they should have done it. ”

"Got it."

"The subordinates retired."

"Hmm."

Princess Pingyang nodded and continued to pluck the strings beneath her.

The capital, the imperial study.

Jingtai drew a picture of the blood moon covering the sky on the eucalyptus table, and below the picture is a very magnificent city, if you look closely, you can see that it is somewhat similar to the capital.

And the blood moon covered the sun's rays, enveloping the entire heaven and earth, with a strange sense of evil.

Jingtai squinted his eyes, revealing a hint of coldness, staring at the location of the blood moon, with some eagerness and yearning.

"Your Majesty, Gonggong Cao is here."

"Let him in."

Jing Tai let out a sigh of relief, waved his hand and put away the blood moon covering the sky map on the eucalyptus table, and returned to its original appearance again.

Cao Zhengxian walked into the imperial study with a solemn face, bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty." ”

"Coming?"

"Hmm."

"What's going on?"

Jingtai stared at Cao Zhengxian and asked.

"The king of Zhennan sent a message, the demon clan in southern Xinjiang has moved, and in the recent past, more than ten cases of demons entering the country and killing the people have been investigated, and he estimates that the south may not be stable again in the future...."

As he spoke, Cao Zhengxian's face was extremely solemn.

The Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry only attacked the border in the past few hundred years and became a major disaster in the Central Plains, and before that, the real disaster in the entire Central Plains was the demon clan of the 100,000 mountains in the southern Xinjiang.

The turning point of the matter began five hundred years ago, when the former Chu emperors of that generation, in order to completely eliminate the demon trouble, gathered and mobilized the forces of the entire imperial court to launch a life-and-death war in southern Xinjiang that lasted for several years.

That battle crippled the demon clan in southern Xinjiang, and in exchange for about 500 years of stability, although there are also demons who are in turmoil, but it is no longer as rampant as it once was.

But that battle also lost most of the elite of the former Chu, and the decline of the dynasty has been a bane since then.

However, due to the merits of the emperors of that generation, he was still posthumously named 'Wu'.

However, although the demon clan has been stable for a long time, as long as people with some experience and cultivation know that the demon clan has only been recuperating in the past few hundred years.

Now that there is a change, perhaps 500 years of stability are coming to an end.

Therefore, Cao Zhengxian will look like a great enemy.

When Chen Yuan was edicted to enter Beijing before, Cao Zhengxian had such worries, and now it is even worse.

"Demon Clan...."Jingtai frowned and said softly:

"Thing.... It's almost time to get together. ”

He just wanted to start his own plan, and he just started to gather the power of the court, and everything was still going on steadily, but the demon clan had such a movement.

also made him wonder if it was because he had done too many evils that even God didn't give him a chance to prosper in the Great Jin?

"Yes, not long ago, the Blood State was still in turmoil, attacking and killing the officials of the two prefectures, causing a lot of chaos, but I didn't expect that the imperial court had not yet freed up its hands to deal with these demon demons, and the demon clan began to make trouble."

Cao Zhengxian sighed lightly, it is true that he is a eunuch, but he is also from the Central Plains, and the most unsightly thing is the scene of demon cannibalism, fortunately, the only thing to be thankful for is that the war in the north is over.

Otherwise, the north and south plus the blood state will be in chaos together, and the imperial court will definitely not be able to hold on.

"Order, tell Nangong Lie that the imperial court has supported him so much over the years, and these monsters must be firmly blocked from Nanzhou!

The current situation cannot be chaotic. ”

Jing Tai said in a low voice with gloomy eyes.

"Yes, the old minister obeys."

"In addition, send a decree to the Heaven Survey Division, let Governor Xiao Dadu give Jiang He, the golden envoy of Qingzhou, and Lu Renjia, the golden envoy of Shuzhou, strictly order, ordering them to transfer their respective forces to help the two prefectures of the Blood Prefecture, this is the face of the imperial court, and it cannot be lost."

"Yes, the old minister obeys."

"Also, tell Xiao Jing that it will be useful for me to transfer those prisoners detained in the heavenly prison, no matter what crime they have committed, to the palace prison."

Jingtai said in a condensed voice.

Cao Zhengxian was stunned for a moment, but looking at the emperor's solemn and gloomy face, he moved his mouth, and still didn't ask what was the use of asking these powerful suspects.

Should he be put to death immediately?

"Huh?"

"Yes, the old minister obeys."

Jingtai took a deep breath and continued:

"Send some treasures of the secret realm of the royal family to the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Zhenguo, don't lose it."

"The old minister will do it."

"Wait...."

"What else does Your Majesty command?"

"The court meeting has been postponed for a few days, and I have been unwell recently and will not go to the court."

"Your Majesty has encountered a problem with your cultivation?"

Emperor Tiandan's cultivation is not sick, the wind and cold are not close, it is impossible to feel uncomfortable, Cao Zhengxian thought that there should be something wrong with his cultivation, maybe the oppression of the national fortune is heavier.

"Well, that's true." Jingtai admitted.

"Do you want the old minister to help Your Majesty?"

Cao Zhengxian asked with concern.

This kind of imperial court is a bit of a critical moment, if something goes wrong with the emperor, it will bring too big a problem!

"No, I can handle it."

"The old minister understands."

"By the way, what is Chen Yuan doing now?" Jingtai remembered that he gave him the position of the Heavenly Character Divine Envoy, and he felt uncomfortable, this son could be given to him, but it had to be achieved by his plan.

Not now, because of the cultivation, the court meeting will be postponed, which makes him a little uncomfortable.

Cao Zhengxian glanced at Jingtai, quickly took out a transmission note from between his sleeves, and after a while, he was silent for a moment, and said truthfully:

"Back to Your Majesty, Wu'anhou is out of the city."

"What are you doing out of town? Isn't he recovering from his injuries? ”

Jingtai frowned.

"It's still under investigation, but when Wu'an Hou went out of the city, he took Zhang Yantong's daughter Zhang Wanshu with him, and went out from the south gate, which should have gone to the direction of Lin'an Mansion."

"I'm so anxious here, but he takes a woman to the mountains and rivers?" Jingtai took a deep breath and was even more unhappy.

"The purpose is not yet known, so the old minister will investigate."

Cao Zhengxian hurriedly said.

"No need, go about your business, you can't focus on him." When Cao Zhengxian was about to walk out of the imperial study, Jingtai said.

Glancing back, Cao Zhengxian bowed and said:

"Yes, the old minister obeys."
