"One step is a new world...... One step and a new world! Cheng Xiyao seemed to have been brainwashed, muttering this sentence back and forth, realizing the meaning of Tang Xuan's words.

"Madam, it's getting late, so it's hard to stay long...... The choice is yours, and you can decide when you go back. Tang Xuan stood up and made a gesture of please.

Now Cheng Xiyao is already a person from the past, and she has a mature charm all over her body, which is unstoppable, and if she stays any longer, it will mess up Tang Xuan's heart.

Suddenly, Tang Xuan covered his forehead.

"Tang Gongzi, what's wrong with you?" Cheng Xiyao stood up.

"This ...... Tea...... Yes...... It's kind of ...... As soon as Ma ......'s voice fell, Tang Xuan fell to the ground, unconscious.

The fox Xiao Ji was shocked, this Tang Xuan actually fell for the beauty trick again, this time it is in trouble, its current state can only deal with those immortal cultivators of the Qi Condensation Realm, and it is powerless to save Tang Xuan at all, even it didn't expect that Cheng Xiyao would poison his savior.

It can't do anything!

Tang Xuan's body is special, and ordinary poisons have an extremely short effect on him, but the effect on soul poisons is no different from that of ordinary people, and now Tang Xuan is afraid that he has been hit by soul poison!

Big trouble!

As soon as the door opened, Ouyang Wen walked into the room, his face still red, but he remained calm.

"Xi Yao, well done...... This Tang Xuan is a prisoner of the imperial court, his first rank, but he can make the two of us promoted to official positions and make a fortune! Ouyang Wen looked at Tang Xuan who fell to the ground, his face was hideous, "Tang Xuan, you still fell into my hands after all." ”

"Brother Wen, can we not kill him, just arrest him and go back for trial? He...... After all, it saved my life. Cheng Xiyao begged, "I can listen to you, and I will listen to you in the future, just ask you not to kill him." ”

"Why, you're distressed...... Do you have a leg? Ouyang Wen didn't look at Cheng Xiyao at all, and slowly pulled out the sword at his waist, "I have long seen that this kid is unhappy, and no one can save him!" ”

As he spoke, Ouyang Wen raised his sword and prepared to cut off Tang Xuan's head.

Suddenly, Ouyang Wen felt a pain in his chest, a sword blade appeared in his chest, Ouyang Wen lowered his head in disbelief, and a sword pierced through the back of his heart, accurately piercing through his heart, piercing him in half.

Ouyang Wen's sword fell to the ground and staggered around, but when he saw this Cheng Xiyao's eyes wide, he stepped back in horror...... It is unimaginable that Cheng Xiyao, who usually obeys him, stabbed him in the heart with a sword at the last moment.

"You...... You! Ouyang Wen slowly sat on the ground, looking at the blade on his chest, a little overwhelmed, he was an immortal cultivator, and he would not die immediately if he was pierced through the heart, but he didn't have Tang Xuan's anti-heaven physique, I was afraid that he wouldn't survive.

Tang Xuan didn't know when, he had already stood up, looking at the situation in front of him a little stunned.

He was not poisoned, Tang Xuan had been used countless times, so much that it was enough to make him almost immune, as long as it was not at the level of Liu Yueling or Ji Lan, it was basically ineffective.

The tea sent by Cheng Xiyao, he took it in his mouth, and spit it into his sleeve while the other party was not paying attention, and he didn't drink it at all.

Originally, I wanted to give Ouyang Wen a surprise at the last moment, but I didn't expect Cheng Xiyao to give Tang Xuan a surprise first, and the three of them were stunned, looking at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.

"You, why did you stab him...... I asked you to make a choice, I wanted you to divorce, I didn't let you kill him! Tang Xuan reacted first and accused Cheng Xiyao as soon as possible.

This Cheng Xiyao must have misunderstood, she thought that she had chosen between the two and killed her husband, how vicious!

"Brother Wen, what's wrong with you?" After all, Cheng Xiyao and Ouyang Wen are husband and wife, although Ouyang Wen always abuses her, but there are still some feelings, Cheng Xiyao cried and leaned down to check her injury.

"I don't need to ask...... It's all pierced by you, I'm afraid you won't live long! Tang Xuan also leaned down and turned to Ouyang Wen, "Although the adults want to kill me, but you are like this now, I don't hate you anymore, if you have any last words, you can tell them." ”

Tang Xuan was still kind-hearted, so he didn't investigate his guilt, and asked him kindly.

"You...... You two ......" Ouyang Wen stretched out his hand tremblingly, pointing at Tang Xuan with his hand, hating to crush his bones and scatter ashes.

Tang Xuan grabbed Ouyang Wen's hand and said solemnly: "Little brother understands, your wife, I will raise her." ”

"Poof~~" When Ouyang Wen heard this, a mouthful of old blood spurted out, and he suddenly withered, closed his eyes, and breathed like a gossamer.

"Brother Wen! I didn't mean to...... Don't sleep, open your eyes and look at me! Cheng Xiyao grabbed Ouyang Wen and shook it vigorously, and blood gushed from the wound.

The fox Xiao Ji paid attention to the development of things, touched his chin and nodded, as if he realized something.

This Cheng Xiyao is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp, she knows Tang Xuan too well, according to legend, Tang Xuan likes little widows the most, followed by young women, and finally girls.

She first made herself a young woman, and then killed her husband, becoming a merry little widow, which was exactly what Tang Xuan's appetite was...... She must have done it on purpose!

……

Capital.

Tang Xuan came back, and due to the delay of the journey, it took a year and a half to go out this time, half a year later than the time agreed with General Wei De.

That Ouyang Wen died and was buried, and it was a hundred...... Cheng Xiyao returned home for the funeral, and Tang Xuan quietly found General Wei De.

Wei De, as the general of Jin Wuwei, although he is the nominal leader, does not have a strong control over Jin Wuwei, which is one of the strongest forces in the capital, so all forces infiltrate it.

These generals all have evil intentions in their hearts, and they are all loyal to their respective masters.

Now the imperial court is divided into three factions, the prime minister Li Chunyang is in charge of the government, the prince party headed by the prince is in charge of the harem, and the faction of the six princes is the weakest, and the three parties are in full swing.

Tang Xuan was brought into the palace, this palace is divided into two parts, the inner palace and the outer palace, the inner palace is inhabited by the emperor and all the concubines, and those young princes and princesses are also in it.

Tang Xuan was taken to the residence of Wei De in the outer palace, Wei De was a general of Jin Wuwei outside, but he was just a small eunuch in charge inside.

In order to prevent the dictatorship of foreign officials, the emperor controlled the power of Jin Wuwei in the hands of the eunuch in charge, but the power of this general was almost hollowed out by his subordinates, even if it was to save Tang Xuan an insignificant ant, he had to work a lot of relationships.

The room was dark, and the little eunuch brought Tang Xuan to Wei De, retreated with humor, and closed the door.

The room was dark and damp, with a strange smell in the air, and the dust in the air could be clearly seen through the windows of the sun shining through the windows.

"You monkey cub, my father-in-law is half a year late."

Wei De is still the same as usual, his eyes are small, and he is used to squinting, coupled with his miserable white face, he is afraid that he will scare people when he comes out in the middle of the night.

Monkey cubs?

How did I become a monkey!

"Thank you father-in-law for saving my life, the little one went to sea to dodge, encountered some trouble, and was delayed for a while." Tang Xuan reported truthfully.

Wei De lifted Erlang's legs, picked up the tea beside him, took a sip of it, and said: "It's good to come back, even if you have some conscience, it just so happens that our family has some things to do, I think you are smart, just right." ”

"Go to the soup and fight the fire, and never give up!" Tang Xuan is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, although he doesn't like the yin and yang person in front of him very much, he is still willing to work for him.

Wei De stood up, walked slowly in front of Tang Xuan, patted Tang Xuan's shoulder to show encouragement, and said: "Now that the court is turbulent, Your Majesty has not been in court for several months, and the people are not happy...... This matter is extremely difficult, and we don't know where to start for a while! ”

Tang Xuan was confused when he heard this, and asked tentatively, "Father-in-law, but you want to rise up?" In the next wish to be a pawn in front of the horse, to help the father-in-law to board the Ninth Five-Year Plan! ”

When Wei De heard this, he picked up the fan and knocked on the door of Tang Xuan's head, lowered his voice, and scolded sternly: "Hugh is talking nonsense, such a big rebellious remark is enough to kill you!" ”

"Oh......" Tang Xuan rubbed his head.

"You kid, you have good strength, and you can perfectly hide your cultivation, it's really not easy...... In order to save the people, the girl dared to challenge the powerful, which shows your character, which is also the reason why my father-in-law likes you. Wei De walked back to his seat and sat down, "I want you to be a little eunuch and help my father-in-law accomplish a great thing." ”

"To be a eunuch? You don't have to be real......" Tang Xuan asked in a low voice.

"Of course...... Don't worry, just one or two inches of things, it is nothing for immortal cultivators, and in the future, when the six roots are pure, you can concentrate on cultivating immortals in order to seek the great way. "Wei De's cultivation is indeed not bad, although he is a eunuch, his strength is above Tang Xuan, and he is also a top master in the capital.

"Father-in-law, I'm going to marry a wife recently, so I'll give this opportunity to someone else...... My father-in-law took me out of the palace. Tang Xuan directly retreated.

"Come back, you young people, it's ...... Forget it, we'll make an exception and send you in, don't cause trouble. ”

Wei De had no choice but to follow his wishes and install a fake eunuch in the inner courtyard of the palace, but he had to take a great risk, if he was caught, even Wei De would be punished.

"I don't know what my father-in-law wants the little one to do!"

"Truth be told, something must have happened in the palace...... In the past two years, His Majesty has lived in the Wanshou Palace on the grounds of ill health, and no longer has an early dynasty, which is very abnormal, and even I have been blocked many times! Also, some palace maids and female prisoners are often missing in the palace, and there is no one alive or dead, which is very weird. ”

Wei De concealed some things, he had already sent capable people into the inner palace to investigate, but these eunuchs and palace maids who were investigating were all inexplicably missing, and it happened that Tang Xuan had committed an accident, Wei De saw that Tang Xuan was bold and careful, so he brought him over to carry out this dangerous task.

"It doesn't seem that difficult." Tang Xuan listened and nodded.

"Young people don't know the height of the sky, this palace is much bigger than you think, among the pavilions, countless palace maids and eunuchs, there are 28,000 women alone! Every year, new show girls are selected, and many palace maids are released out of the palace, and it is difficult to investigate a few missing palace maids. Wei De poured cold water on Tang Xuan.

"There are so many people, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack......"

Tang Xuan finally felt the pressure, he could only sneak into the inner palace as a little eunuch, so his movement was restricted, and it was extremely difficult to investigate these secret things.

"I think there is a demon in this palace that has infiltrated it and bewitched Your Majesty...... It is this demon who harms people in the palace. Wei De sighed, "Although I am General Jin Wuwei and the chief eunuch in the palace, I haven't seen Your Majesty for two years. ”

"The palace is heavily guarded, how can it be invaded by demons?" Tang Xuan was a little incomprehensible.

Wei De got up, paced in front of Tang Xuan, and said leisurely: "This matter is not simple...... His Majesty added a national teacher two years ago, and he has never been in court since. The crown prince Jiang Huan began to take the opportunity to win over the courtiers, and now the prince's party is extremely powerful, I am worried that once the prince controls the situation, His Majesty will be killed by him, and then the forces of our six princes will only be unlucky. ”

"I see, the prince actually colluded with the demon clan, why did he do this......

"Your Majesty's cultivation is not bad, he has thousands of years of life, if the prince wants to inherit the unification, he must take risks! This kind of thing was not uncommon in the previous dynasties...... Tang Xuan, Daliang is worried about domestic and foreign troubles, and he can't afford to consume it. Although Wei De was not good-looking, he was very loyal to the emperor and could not bear to see the country in turmoil.

"I am determined to live up to my mission!"

However, Tang Xuan did not flinch, even if it was to repay Wei De for saving his life, he could not refuse.

Three days later, Tang Xuan disguised himself as a little eunuch and entered the palace.

There are twelve eunuchs, four divisions, and eight bureaus in the palace, and Tang Xuan was arranged to be the supervisor of the direct palace, responsible for the cleaning of the palace's halls and corridors, in short, the cleaners in the imperial city.

Tang Xuan was rankless and rankless, and belonged to the most humble existence in this palace, only in this way would he not arouse the vigilance of others.

After a day of training, Tang Xuan learned some palace etiquette, and to sum up, he had to salute anyone he saw.

In the evening, I finally had time to relax, and lay down in the house and prepared to sleep.

There is a little eunuch in the same room with him, born white and pure, who has been in the palace for many years, known as Xiao Chunzi, but this guy doesn't have a smile on his face all day long, maybe because he works too hard.

"Koharuko, how many years have you been in the palace?" Tang Xuan felt that he had just arrived and needed to build a good relationship with his new colleagues, and after the lights went out, he began to chat with Xiao Chunzi.

"Seven years." Haruko's voice was cold, as if it didn't have any emotion.

"Seven years is not short, can there be a wife at home? Oh, I forgot, you're a eunuch. Tang Xuan suddenly realized.

Xiao Chunzi was a little impatient, turned over, and said, "Xiao Xuanzi, I have to get up early tomorrow to work, can you stop asking!" ”

Silent......

I don't know how long it took......

Haruko is about to fall asleep in a daze.

"That's right...... Let me ask you one last thing, do you feel an inexplicable excitement when you see a beautiful woman? ”

"Get out~!"
