Soon after Liu Sangu rushed down the mountain, the crown prince Lu Huai and Liu Gonggong also said goodbye and left.

Chen Ji saw that the faces of these two people were not very good, especially Gonggong Liu, whose face was originally feminine because he was a eunuch, and his face was so gloomy that he could condense frost when he left.

The scenery of Hongye Mountain is beautiful, and there are many wealthy merchants and warriors who build the annex on the mountain.

The movement just now must have been reported, and there will definitely be a lot of discussion in the county tomorrow, speculating whether the thief Saint Liu Sangu heard any news from the imperial court.

However, Chen Ji estimated that this thief saint was killed and did not dare to say the strange things he encountered tonight.

"Thank you for the reminder."

After a while, Lu Rui came to the back house and went directly to her daughter's study, and was not surprised when she saw Chen Ji, and thanked him with a smile.

Didn't even look at her daughter.

"Princess."

Xia Shumin made a blessing salute, lowered his head, and said softly: "Why did the prince's cousin say goodbye in such a hurry?" My cousin hasn't seen him for ten or six years, so let's see him, lest I won't recognize him when I meet him on the street in the future. ”

Chen Ji almost lived in Bengbu.

What cousin hasn't seen my cousin for six years.

This sentence clearly refers to herself, and she only now knows that her mother is a princess.

Lu Rui stretched out her finger and nodded her daughter's smooth forehead, and said bitterly: "It's not for your own good to be a mother!" ”

"What royal rules are the princesses talking about? Why can't my daughter understand. ”

"You don't understand, do you? Another day, ask your uncle to make you a princess, marry the Khitan in two years, or marry Dali and relatives, and let you live in the grassland for the rest of your life, riding horses and living in tents to drink cow and goat milk. ”

"Woo, mother, don't."

The little lady who hated the barbarians the most was finally scared and threw herself into her mother's arms to be coquettish.

"Good."

The two staged a motherly and daughterly filial piety in front of Chen Ji.

"Auntie, is it okay to let that thief escape?"

The three of them sat in the study and talked about what had just happened.

Liu Sangu's lotus eight steps crossed several miles in the blink of an eye, and Gonggong Liu, as the supreme grandmaster, directly gave up the pursuit.

However, in Chen Ji's eyes, it is still very slow.

"It doesn't matter."

Lu Rui said: "Although the thief Saint Liu San was listed as the devil by the imperial court because of his three visits to the palace, he was also dissolute and uninhibited, and was accused and abused by many famous and decent people, but he was not an innocent person, he was also a figure who was both righteous and evil.

You're right not to make a move. ”

Three visits to the palace? That's too audacious!

Xia Shumin on the side snickered at Chen Ji, as if to say, look, my mother also agrees with me.

Chen Ji smiled at her and asked, "Will the emperor really let the soldiers besiege and kill the real dragon?" ”

Before, he thought that the emperor of Zhao was looking for death, but after watching the rain of arrows, he had to admit that maybe the transfer of 100,000 troops really had a chance to shoot down the real dragon flying in the sky.

The real dragon doesn't seem to be fully formed, and currently only shows the ability to fly through the sky and the earth, and travel through the clouds and rain.

Of course, the premise is that the true dragon hidden in the mountains and rivers is revealed, otherwise others will not be able to find where the divine dragon lurks.

"If he has the chance, he will give an order."

Lu Rui's tone was indifferent: "When I lived in the palace in the past, I didn't know much about him, and I had the impression that he was a prince with a gloomy temperament, and he was in power soon after he ascended the throne, and he had the means. Your uncle said that the current emperor does not allow the ministers to question, and it is uncomfortable to be an official in the capital. ”

After that, Lu Rui glanced at Chen Ji deeply: "If he is stupid and offends the immortals, the virtuous nephew doesn't have to look at Shumin's face, just let it go." ”

Chen Ji smiled, "The real dragon is invisible, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see it with half a claw, let alone surround and kill." ”

"Isn't it lurking in a deep pool?" Lu Rui was a little surprised.

"No, it's hidden in the mountains."

Chen Ji's mind moved slightly, and soon, a fiery red Xuanniao flew in through the window, landed on his hand, opened his mouth and took a bite of the wisp of immortal qi that Chen Ji fed him.

With this phoenix here, the safety of Xia Mansion is still guaranteed.

Chen Ji threw the phoenix to the little lady, let her ravage it in her arms, and after chatting with them for a while, he said goodbye and left.

……

At the foot of Mt. Momiji.

Lu Huai, who returned to the camp, sat in the commander's tent, and several people sat on the left and right.

Among them, there are officials of the East Palace, and there are also children of the family, all of whom are Lu Huai's confidants, and they discuss all major matters.

"Your Highness."

The young man sitting on the right side held a sword in his arms and said with great interest: "That lady of the county guard who was born in the Immortal Valley already knows who the land immortal is, maybe it is the old man who asks the immortal?" ”

Lu Huai's visit to Xia Mansion tonight was to ask the disciples of the Immortal Valley to meet the old man, not to see the Seventh Princess.

"I agree with Brother Wen Yan."

"Some people rumored that the book "Zhao Sanhate" came out of the county guard's mansion, and then it was confiscated and sealed by Xia Yongcheng, and then the gate of heaven opened the dragon and phoenix, and the three must be related!"

"The notorious county keeper of Yongkang County is actually from the rivers and lakes, and she is still a great grandmaster, which is really unexpected."

"I don't know what the strength of the land immortals is, can 10,000 troops be killed?"

"If you want an army of 10,000 to kill, the name of the land immortal is also appropriate."

The people in the tent talked for a while, and finally looked at the prince who sat on the throne.

"What does Mr. Fang think?"

Lu Huai looked at a tall, thin man with a long beard sitting on the left.

This person's name is Fang Ji, he has no official position, no fame, and no martial arts cultivation, and he wanders around Qinglou all day long, often drunk and messy.

But he is quite scheming, which is valued by the prince.

"Your Highness."

Francis lazily arched his hand: "This time, His Highness has strange people to help, so why discuss it again?" Just wait quietly. ”

"Strange people?"

"Look at the palace three times, what is it that is not a strange person?"

Francis laughed.

"Liu Sangu?"

Lu Huai's mind was in a hurry, and he quickly figured out the joints, and also laughed: "It's the palace that is in a hurry, so let others go to explore the reality of the county guard mansion on behalf of the palace." ”

Liu Sangu's words before leaving, coupled with the book "Zhao Sanhate", were enough to make many people's hearts moved, and they used various means to visit Xia Mansion.

There are many people who probe it, so naturally there will be some clues exposed.

Lu Huai was in a good mood.

"Your Highness, are you still killing the dragon?"

Zhai Wenyan asked suddenly, he was holding a sword in his arms, the hilt was extremely exquisite, it should be a rare sword.

"Dragon ......"

Lu Huai had a headache.

This thing is not killed, nor is it released, but coincidentally, it also flew over the capital and swept over the palace, but it did not stay for half a moment.

No wonder his father was furious and ordered him to kill the dragon.

None of the people present spoke, although they felt that if they wanted to kill the true dragon in the sky with the power of mortals on the earth, they had to pay a great price, not to mention that they didn't know what the relationship between the true dragon, the phoenix, and the land immortals was.

But this matter is related to imperial power, if that land immortal can order the true dragon, not to mention the current 50,000 army, even if the 500,000 elites guarding the border pass are transferred back, they must also be killed.

"Let's go to the edge of the pool and place sacrifices."

Lu Huai made a decision: "Whether it can't come out or not, the sacrifice will be placed for seven days, and then ask my father to make an order." ”

Everyone nodded, relieved in their hearts, they had an army of 50,000, but they didn't dare to stroke the dragon's beard easily.

"Actually."

Fang Ji suddenly opened his mouth and looked at Lu Huai: "This matter is not an opportunity. ”

The hearts of everyone present were in their hearts, and they all looked at the prince.

"Finding a land immortal is indeed an opportunity to break through the realm of martial arts."

Lu Huai laughed, brushed his sleeves and left the table.
