The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

The so-called small things open the meeting, big things hold small meetings. The people standing in this imperial study today are all important figures in the Ming Dynasty.

The three cabinet scholars, the six Shangshu, the owner of the Dragon Villa, the iron gall Shenhou, the governor of the East Factory and the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Liu Jin, the chief supervisor of the internal supervision Cao Zhengchun, the emperor, and the little yellow cat sleeping on the dragon chair.

The ministers didn't know what the emperor had summoned him to do, whispered, and some even began to be extremely dissatisfied with the emperor's public pet and playthings.

"Your Majesty, the slave Liu Jin has something to do."

"Say."

"Recently, a big devil has appeared in Kyoto, killing several ordinary people of my Ming Dynasty in a row, and even daring to assassinate the ministers of the imperial court. But..."Liu Jin looked a little hesitant.

Zhengde was surprised: "Didn't I leave this eucalyptus to you Dongchang and Hulong Villa?" ”

Liu Jin hurriedly said: "The emperor doesn't know, this murderer is none other than the No. 1 secret agent of the Dragon Guardian Villa, the fifth rank of the imperial guard with a knife, and he will return to the sea with a knife!"

Yesterday, the minion had captured him, but the Shenhou let him go again. ”

After speaking, Liu Jin looked at the Iron Courage Shenhou and smiled secretly.

This guild makes a small report, are you afraid?

Hearing this, the ministers in the hall immediately became lively. What they are most afraid of in these officials is this kind of Jiangyang thief, who likes to listen to the corners of the wall and is not reasonable.

As long as people feel uncomfortable looking at you, rushing through the door is a knife.

A dignified head of six departments, a few people who stand at the peak of the entire Ming Dynasty, the life and death of hundreds of millions of Li people are in their hands, what happened to marrying ten or eight concubines?

What, what?

There are more than a dozen little landlords in people's hometowns, isn't this bullying!

Zhu Wuzhi stood up and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, what Liu Jin said is not true. The knife of returning to the sea was taken away by the Shaolin monk, and the demons were removed for him, and after 7749 days, the demons were removed, and Weichen would take him back for interrogation. ”

Liu Jin smiled: "The slave has heard that there is a word in ancient times called releasing the tiger back to the mountain, this caught the tiger and then released it back to the mountains, can the tiger be caught in the future?"

Moreover, Shenhou and several of his subordinates have a deep relationship with each other, and they are like father and son, which is well known. It will not be painful.

Now a knife is the devil who kills people, that is known to everyone, even the Dragon Protector Villa dares to break in, if this time to go to the devil can not be successful, come back again, in the capital madness, killing, the consequences, the slave can not imagine ah! ”

After speaking, Liu Jin glanced at the ministers proudly.

If he gets the Dragon Protector Villa down this time, he will see who will dare to make trouble with him in the future, and even glance at Cao Zhengchun, who is serving the emperor in the hall.

It's his turn next, and he can remember all his little books.

The ministers discussed for a while, and Liu Chu, a scholar of Wenhuadian University, came out: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen does not dare to agree with the words of Gonggong Liu.

He was in charge of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and there were 3,000 battalions and 5,000 battalions guarding the forbidden army. If someone commits a heinous crime in Kyoto, it is definitely not that they dare not imagine that they can be absolved with four words. ”

The smile on Liu Jin's face gradually disappeared.

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department also said: "Your Majesty, according to the law of the country, this matter should be Liu Jin's responsibility, and Weichen thinks that the scholar is reasonable. ”

Zhengde's face is not good-looking, this Zhu ignores doing this kind of thing, and there are so many people protecting him, his strength in the court is really terrifying, and then he looked at Cao Zhengchun on the side.

Cao Zhengchun comprehended and came out of the column to spray: "Shenhou, you let go of the court criminals without permission, are you knowing the law and breaking the law?" ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department shook his head and said slowly: "Gonggong Liu, may I ask if you have been interrogated after you have been arrested and stabbed in Guihai?"

As far as I know, this person has not entered any files in my criminal department, so how can he be regarded as a prisoner of the imperial court? ”

Liu Jin was anxious: "Shaolin presided over Master Fan, and the head of Emei, Yeyu Shitai, was present at the time, and they were all witnesses!" ”

Another scholar stepped forward and said, "What about the witnesses? Did Gonggong Liu take two witnesses to the Criminal Department to record and testify? ”

"Nope!" The Criminal Department is still the same.

"In this way, the murder of Guihai with a knife is only a rumor in the city at the moment, and in fact there are no witnesses who witnessed it.

The saint is wise, loves the people like a son, if there is no real evidence, how can he conclude that Guihai is a murderer? The scholar said slowly.

"What the scholar said is very true!" Another six-part cabinet elder echoed.

"That's right!"

......

After listening to these people's words, the expression on Liu Jin's face changed from stunned to annoyed, then from annoyance to dazed, and finally from dazed to helpless.

What's going on, why is it his fault now?

Liu Jin raised his head slightly, saw the disappointed emperor, the smiling Gonggong Cao, the little yellow cat sleeping loudly, and finally looked at the roof, as if he was doubting himself and the meaning of life.

This doesn't make sense!

In the end, it was Jiao Fang, a university scholar, who stood up in the mocking gaze of the ministers.

"Your Majesty, the situation is already clear, Gonggong Liu and the ministers have not yet determined whether the murderer is a knife returning to the sea, and the knife returning to the sea has demons in his body, so he needs to stay in Shaolin 7749 to eliminate demons.

Na Weichen suggested that the first Dongchang continue to inquire about the murderer to prevent the murderer from going unpunished.

In addition, Guihai was born in Hulong Villa, and when his demons went out, he was brought to the Criminal Department, so that Dali Temple, Dongchang, and the Criminal Department participated, and the three families were tried to show fairness.

Both, since the knife of returning to the sea was taken away by the Shenhou in front of the public, the Shenhou still has to make a guarantee that after forty-nine days, the knife of returning to the sea must be returned.

In addition, if you return to the sea and continue to commit evil within these 7749 days, you have to give an explanation to the ministers, to the emperor, and to those innocent people. ”

Liu Jin's eyes lit up at this time: "Ah, yes, yes, yes!" ”

After speaking, Gonggong Liu looked at Jiao Fang very happily, it is worthy of reading a lot, and there is a set of reasoning.

Cao Zhengchun was also thoughtful.

This is where he, the former overseer of Dongchang, is not as good as this Liu Jin. In this world, the hustle and bustle is all for profit, so why not use the power position to envelop some scholars who stand on their side?

Enemies of the world, unless you are as proficient as the little ancestor is in the Analects, your old age will definitely be ominous, and you may not even survive your old age.

Zhengde's face eased slightly, and he looked at Zhu Wu deeply: "Uncle Huang, what do you think?" ”

Zhu ignored and stepped forward, clenching his fists: "Back to the emperor, if you return to the sea and violate the law again, Weichen is willing to suffer the crime of Zhulian and voluntarily be imprisoned in Dongchang Heavenly Prison." ”

"That'll be fine."

......

Harem, Inner Prison.

Cao Zhengchun sat cross-legged in the courtyard, closed his eyes, and operated the "Great Day Haotian Secret Classic" taught by the little ancestor.

This practice is supreme and yang, and the intention is lofty.

Through this exercise, he learned that the sun in the sky, compared to the vast stars at night, was only an inconspicuous small star on the vast scale of the universe.

It is the existence of this sun that provides the light and heat needed for the growth and reproduction of life on the planet where he is located.

But this light is so hot and violent, if it were not for the protection of the planet, it would even make all living beings die in an instant.

The sun is shining.

The palace of Nuoda, with withered beams and paintings, pavilions and pavilions, is more and more brilliant under the sun's rays.

The palace seems to be a small city, where everyone has their own life, everyone is working hard, calculating, communicating, moving around, resting.

Although they are playful today, their temperament is not bad, so the palace maids and attendants also have laughter from time to time.

And since Gonggong Cao took charge of the harem, as long as he doesn't make a big mistake, there are no people in this harem who have been killed casually for inexplicable reasons.

Suddenly, the whole sky darkened.

Everyone hurriedly looked up, there were no dark clouds, the sky was blue and white, but the sun was so dark, it seemed that the hot and warm light was sucked away by some evil existence.

Is there some great terror to come?

Suddenly the whole of Kyoto was in chaos, and some people were even more panicked, they were rich and powerful, and they lived freely every day, but they didn't want to die at all.

"Hum~"

With a sinking in their hearts, everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the palace, only to see a huge and majestic shadow slowly rising there, but it made the whole world suddenly bright, and swept away the haze in everyone's hearts.

Warm, sunny.

It's a god!

And it's the palace, could it be that this guy Zhengde really got the mandate of heaven? At this moment, all careerists are sinking in their hearts.

Over the years, everything Zhengde has done can be summed up in one sentence: this son has no gentleman's appearance.

Therefore, many royal families have some special ideas in their hearts.

The key is that Zhengde still has no son, if he dies suddenly, won't everyone have a chance?

Originally, seeing that the sky suddenly darkened, everyone even thought about the result in their hearts: the Son of Heaven acted willfully, and Providence warned.

But this vision in the palace is no different.

Destiny favors you, an emperor through the ages!

......

Dragon Guardian Villa, Zhu ignored the huge phantom, frowned, and then directly picked up the light power and hurried away.

"The Dragon Guardian Villa belongs, gather urgently, and immediately rush to the imperial city to rescue the driver!"

"Yes!"

......

In the east factory, Liu Jin was overjoyed and knelt directly in front of the palace.

"My emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

......

After finishing the work, Cao Zhengchun slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were bright, bright and bright.

Raising his hands to look at it for a while, Grandpa Cao deeply understood one thing: he has become stronger!

Since hiding in this harem, although he has also learned to eat, drink and have fun like his little ancestor, his daily homework has not fallen behind at all.

No matter how hard and tired he was, he still maintained his practice for a whole hour every day.

Sure enough, the hard-working people live up to the sky.

At this moment, he entered the realm that the entire Jianghu people dreamed of: transcendent sanctification!

"Meow?" The little yellow cat jumped on the shoulder of the shovel and asked curiously.

[Meng Mei, where is the Meng Mei? ] 】

Cao Zhengchun: ......

After playing with the little ancestor for a while, serving him for dinner and massage, and then helping to arrange two maids to serve, Cao Zhengchun felt the changes in his body again.

Whether it is strength, true qi, or physical body, it is indeed very different from the former self, and it has become more than ten times stronger.

Very strong, far stronger than he imagined.

It is no wonder that from ancient times to the present, there are only two people in the martial arts who have reached this realm, and after reaching this realm, they have suppressed the rivers and lakes for a hundred years, and even established two martial arts holy lands that have been inherited for hundreds of years and have been prosperous for a long time.

The most important thing is that the spirit breaks through to a new level, and the gods are clear, and every move can hook the power of heaven and earth, and it can also absorb it into the body to maintain true qi and life.

The flesh-eaters are brave and fierce, the grain eaters are wise and skillful, the gas eaters are gods and long-lived, and the non-eaters are immortal and godly.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that his life would be long, long.

For thousands of years in China, the dream of immortality of the emperors of the past dynasties seems to be about to reach it before he knows it. And this is just because he is comfortable serving his little ancestor.

That's great!

Looking at the arrogant little ancestor sleeping on the bed next to him, Cao Zhengchun smiled slightly.

Although he has become the number one in the world, he has not thought of leaving this deceitful palace. Only here can he provide the best life for the little ancestor.

As for leaving to enjoy the happiness of being free outside, or defeating the little ancestors, asking for more things. These thoughts, he never thought about.

I have been a father-in-law for a lifetime, and I have served people for a lifetime, no relatives, no friends, and I live so long alone, is it interesting?

Being able to serve the little ancestor is the happiest and most honorable thing in his life.

After pondering for a while, Cao Zhengchun frowned, went out, and directly greeted his subordinates who came urgently after a hundred steps.

"What's the matter?"

Pi Xiaotian hurriedly said: "Father-in-law, at the gate of the Shenwu Gate, the Iron Courage God Hou Zhu ignored and led hundreds of spies and guards. Liu Jin, the governor of Dongchang, also led 3,000 battalions, thousands of men and horses from the five military battalions, as well as other civil and military officials, and asked to enter the palace to escort them. ”

Cao Zhengchun was stunned: "The emperor is doing well in the palace, what is the driver?" ”

"Just now, there was a sudden disappearance in the palace, and it was suspected that a god had descended, and the gods and officials were afraid of the emperor's safety, so they ......"

Cao Zhengchun smiled: "Afraid of the emperor's safety? I think they're here to confirm if something happened to the emperor, so they'd better find a home as soon as possible, right?

Daring! ”

Pi Xiaotian hurriedly bowed his head.

For some reason, this stepfather, who was once slightly better than him, is now like a mountain and a sea, threatening the mighty shore, and his every move makes his heart shake.

"Go down and tell the Shenhou that the emperor will go to the Shenwu Gate to meet them in a while."

"Yes!" Pi Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly bent down and retreated.

What kind of kung fu did my father-in-law practice, it was really terrifying.

It can't be that the god-man phantom just now was made by the righteous father, right?

No way!

......

Outside the palace, Zhu ignored his hands and stood quietly in front of the hundred officials.

Thousands of people have gathered behind him: civil and military officials, guards, family members, and everyone who looks at the lively people.

After talking about Xiangrui for so many years, it is the first time in everyone's life to see it, it is amazing.

"Father-in-law, what do you think of this auspicious rui?" Shangguan Haitang quietly leaned over and asked.

Zhu ignored the surging glance at her and said, "How do I usually teach you?" ”

"See more, talk less, listen more." Shangguan Haitang's pretty face turned red and hurriedly retreated.

Then, the god looked in the direction of the palace and fell into deep thought.

Mandate of Heaven?

He didn't believe it!

......
