Looking at the back of Zuo Dao leaving, the old turtle didn't know what he was muttering.

Then he raised his hand and waved it gently.

The formation that shrouded the gazebo disappeared, and the sound of several singers playing.

The old turtle lay in the rocking chair with a happy face, drinking and listening to the singers play.

At the same time, a wisp of qi stood out from its body, attached directly to the hairpin at the back of the left Dao's head, and left with the left Dao.

……

Not far from the left road house.

Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others saw Zuo Dao coming, and they all walked forward with their bags on their backs.

Everyone's faces were full of excitement.

Speaking of which, this is the first time they have encountered such a situation.

I actually want to stay overnight in the imperial city.

And he still lives in the palace where Princess Taiping is.

It's something they couldn't have thought of before.

Not to mention staying overnight in the Imperial City, they hadn't even been to the palace gate before.

Zuo Dao glanced at a few people, and saw that several people were ready, so he led people towards the direction of the palace.

All the way to the gate of the palace, he showed the waist card given to him by Eunuch Li.

The soldiers in charge of the guards let them go.

Then a eunuch stepped forward and led a few people to the direction of Princess Taiping's palace.

Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and the others followed closely behind Zuo Dao, and walked forward with their heads down.

It was the first time they had entered the palace.

And this time when you enter the palace, you may have to live in the palace for a while.

When they get out, these are good talking points, enough for them to blow to death.

Although a group of people walked with their heads down, their faces were quite excited.

Soon.

A few people came to the palace where Princess Taiping was and saw Princess Taiping practicing swords in the courtyard.

On his side, Eunuch Wang was looking at Princess Taiping with a smile on his face.

Zuo Dao could see that in his heart, Eunuch Wang seemed to regard this princess Taiping who he had watched grow up as a real junior.

And it's still the kind of junior who hurts to the bones.

Seeing Zuo Dao and the others coming, Eunuch Wang immediately greeted him and said, "Old slave, congratulations on your promotion to the position of commander." ”

When Zuo Dao heard this, he said with a smile: "Eunuch Wang is polite. ”

In this palace, an existence like the king eunuch has a unique set of information sources under his hands.

It was not unusual to know that he had been promoted to commanding the officer.

Eunuch Wang glanced at Zhang Long and Zhao Hu who were following behind Zuo Dao, and then sent the little eunuch under his command to take him to see where he lived these days.

By the way, teach them the rules in the palace, and the provincial ones have committed taboos.

After a few people left, Eunuch Wang arched his hand at Zuo Dao and said, "Lord Zuo, I know that your combat strength is unparalleled, and these days, the safety of His Highness will trouble you." ”

Zuo Dao immediately replied: "This is all within the duties of the lower officials." ”

Hearing Eunuch Wang say this, he already had a guess in his heart, and his previous guess should be correct.

The emperor is going to make a move against the one in the deep palace.

Moreover, that guy from Pudu Cihang also entered the palace in advance, and the time to do it is just a few days.

Now let him enter the palace and live near Princess Taiping's palace, just in case.

When Zuo Dao was talking to Eunuch Wang, he saw Princess Taiping stop practicing her sword and walk towards the two.

When he came closer, he saluted Zuo Dao and said, "Taiping has seen Master Zuo." ”

Zuo Dao replied: "Your Highness is polite. ”

Princess Taiping sighed, and then sat on the stone bench with a melancholy look on her face.

muttered in his mouth: "My father doesn't know what's going on lately, he doesn't pay attention to such a big thing in Tianhe City, he only knows how to linger in the harem all day long, and he doesn't even go to the court." ”

"Recently, it has been the prince's brother who has been handling political affairs, and the ministers in the court have a lot of criticism."

Hearing this, Eunuch Wang immediately spoke: "Your Highness is cautious. ”

Princess Taiping glanced at Eunuch Wang and said, "I'm just complaining and complaining, anyway, I'm used to it." ”

Eunuch Wang looked left and right, and saw that those palace maids and eunuchs were far away, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he didn't know the specific situation, he could guess that His Majesty should have something big to do.

As for what the big deal was, it wasn't for him to know.

Several people exchanged pleasantries in the presence for a while, and Eunuch Wang personally took Zuo Dao to the place where the latter was going to live these days.

Unlike Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, Zuo Dao lived very close to Princess Taiping.

This is to be able to respond in a timely manner to the next possible crisis.

After Zuo Dao looked at the surrounding situation, he familiarized himself with the nearby terrain and then returned to the room to calculate.

With so many hole cards in his hand, even if the emperor really wanted to make a move on that martial arts immortal, he should be able to survive.

It's just that it's rare to encounter such a big battle, if it's just to survive.

It doesn't seem worth it.

Whether it is the martial arts immortal, or the big demon of Pudu Cihang, or those eunuchs in the palace, they can all provide a lot of energy points.

Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, depending on whether you are bold enough.

People who live by the sea often say that the stronger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish.

Zuo Dao thought about it, but he still felt that he could take the risk and try it.

I don't lack the ability to save my life.

And it happened to be in the palace, and he was ordered to protect Princess Taiping, even if he did it, it would only be a reward for meritorious deeds in the future.

After his heart was sure, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

In this palace, there seems to be a large array of guards, constantly absorbing the aura of heaven and earth.

The aura here is even comparable to the depths of the 100,000 mountains.

He rested in his room for a while, and then it was time for lunch, and a little eunuch served him a meal.

Not only him, but Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others also gathered in one room, their faces full of excitement.

"This is the Imperial Meal? It looks so much better than the big restaurants in Kyoto. ”

"No, in my opinion, it's because of our different states of mind that this is the case,"

"Zhang Long, you pretend to be a fart, after the little eunuch left just now, he was grinning to the root of his ears."

Just as everyone was talking, they saw a knock on the door.

Zhang Long stood up and opened the door to look, only to see a man with a personable demeanor and a gentle jade standing outside the door.

He subconsciously said, "Who is Childe looking for?" ”

I saw the latter bow and said: "I accompanied Gongsun Ce in the Lower East Palace, and I have seen all the adults." ”

After hearing the four words read by Donggong Companion, several people who were still eating instantly put down the dishes and chopsticks in their hands and stood up.

Zhang Long also restrained himself, and arched his hand: "Zhang Long, who is in the hundred households of Xia Jinyi Wei, has seen Lord Gongsun. ”

Gongsun Ce smiled and waved his hand and said, "Don't be an adult." ”

He was originally a prodigy with a great reputation in other places, but he was enlightened and was called into the East Palace to be the prince's companion.

But until today, he has never been given a half-official position.

I don't know what the one in the East Palace is thinking.

This time I came to Princess Taiping, I was ordered by the East Palace to come and see Zuo Dao and others.

After all, the prince is well-informed, and he heard that a foreign man stayed in the palace at night, so he had to come to inquire about it.

Gongsun Ce looked at a few people in the room, and then said, "Dare to ask where Zuo is the matter?" ”

When Zhang Long heard this, he immediately spoke: "My family is not here, it should be at the eunuch Wang." ”

After hearing Zhang Long speak, Gongsun Ce arched his hand at him and left.

Seeing this, Zhang Long and the others were full of doubts on their faces.

What are the people of the East Palace looking for the adults of his family?

Soon.

Under the guidance of the little eunuch, Gongsun Ce came to Zuodao's residence.

At this moment, Zuo Dao was in the room to familiarize himself with the Heaven Turning Seal that he had just refined.

According to the original product, this thing should be named "Fantian Seal".

But who made this a high imitation.

That being said, it's also a good thing.

Listening to the old turtle, this thing can be regarded as an immortal weapon.

Be familiar with it yourself, as a hole card, and be prepared.

Then.

There was a knock on the door.

I only heard the little eunuch outside open his mouth and report: "Lord Zuo, the East Palace is visiting Gongsun Ce." ”

Hearing the little eunuch speak, Zuo Dao couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

East Palace accompanies Gongsun Ce?

Another familiar name.

He stood up, went to the door, and opened it.

I saw that behind the little eunuch, followed by a young man who looked like a noble son.

After seeing Zuo Dao, Gongsun Ce spoke: "The East Palace is accompanied by Gongsun Ce, and I have seen Zuo Zhishi. ”

Hearing this, Zuo Dao bowed his head slightly and said, "Your Excellency came to look for me, but is there something?" ”

Gongsun Ce looked at the person in front of him and said with a smile: "I am just under the order of the East Palace, come and take a look at Zuo Yan's affairs, in this palace, I can still get used to it." ”

When Zuo Dao heard this, he immediately arched his hand and said: "His Royal Highness Prince Lao is concerned, and the minister is very good." ”

Gongsun Ce looked at this place, and he could also see that this place was very close to the palace where Princess Taiping lived.

You can hear everything there.

I saw Gongsun Ce raise his hand and take out a token, and said with a smile: "This is the East Palace token given to Zuo by His Royal Highness the Prince, if you want to go to the East Palace, you don't need to pass it, you can rely on this token unimpeded." ”

Zuo Dao showed a look of surprise on his face, but he didn't think much about it and took it in his hand.

opened his mouth and said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, for your attention. ”

Gongsun Ce looked at Zuo Dao in front of him, and an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes.

opened his mouth and said: "The Thirteenth Prince said that Lord Zuo is the first day of the Great Wei after him, if it weren't for the wrong time, I really want to learn it." ”

At this time, the eunuch Wang came from not far away, and said from a distance: "Zuo Yanshi, Your Highness has summoned you to go." ”

Hearing this, Zuo Dao put away the token, and walked directly towards Eunuch Wang.

Seeing this, Gongsun Ce shook his head slightly, and then turned around and left directly.

After returning to the East Palace.

Through a screen, he reported to the prince what he had seen and heard in the palace of Princess Taiping.

A moment later, the prince's voice came from behind the screen.

"Gongsun Ce, Uncle Thirteen said, that Zuo Dao is the first day of Dawei after him, how do you feel when you meet this time?"

Gongsun Ce said with a smile: "The edge is fully displayed, and the wood is beautiful in the forest." ”

Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to say that Zuo Dao was not weaker than him in terms of cultivation or potential.

In addition to his cultivation, he also has a top-notch aura inheritance.

Although he was only in a hurry before, he saw the luck of purple in the gold on Zuo Dao's body.

This kind of luck, even if it is the current prince, is only a little more than him.

This kind of person, if he does not fall halfway, will definitely be able to make great achievements in this side of the world.

When the prince heard this, he smiled and said, "It seems that Zuo Dao is really good, and he can make you give such an evaluation." ”

"Over the years, you have been alone, but you have been wronged."

Whether it is strength or means, Gongsun Ce believes that he is not inferior to Zuo Dao.

And that's exactly what happened.

At least in terms of cultivation, compared to Zuo Dao, he is really not weak.

Hearing the prince speak, Gongsun Ce arched his hand and said: "Doing things by His Royal Highness's side, how can it be said that it is a grievance." ”

Behind the screen, the prince chuckled, and then said, "In the past few days, Lonely's safety will trouble you." ”

Gongsun Ce arched his hand and said, "I will not let His Highness down." ”

The other side.

Zuo Dao came to the palace of Princess Taiping, thinking back to the scene when he saw Gongsun Ce before.

The waist card that suddenly appeared in the opponent's hand, if he guessed correctly, the opponent should also have a storage treasure in his hand.

And the other party's status in the East Palace should not be low.

Otherwise, he would not have been sent over to inquire about the situation, and he was also given a Donggong waist card.

Judging from the previous words, the strength of the other party is also good.

This kind of person is most likely close to the prince.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Princess Taiping coming with a frown, and after seeing Zuo Dao, he said, "Father asked Master Zuo to come, but to restrict me from leaving the palace?" ”

When Zuo Dao heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "Your Majesty just asked me to protect His Highness." ”

Princess Taiping apparently didn't believe it.

She just wanted to go to her mother's palace to say hello, but she found that there were a lot of forbidden troops outside the palace gate at some point.

And neither she nor anyone else could enter or leave since the beginning.

In addition, today's Zuo Dao entered the palace, which always made him feel that something was wrong, and there must be something wrong.

Princess Taiping frowned and said, "Then I want you to take this palace out of the palace." ”

Zuo Dao was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head to look at Eunuch Wang beside him.

The eunuch immediately spoke: "Your Highness, it is better to stay in the palace for a few more days, and if you want to leave the palace in the future, the old slave will definitely report to Your Majesty." ”

Hearing Eunuch Wang speak, Princess Taiping frowned and said, "Eunuch Wang, you also want to imprison this palace?" ”

Eunuch Wang immediately knelt down, and said in a trembling voice: "The old slave doesn't dare." ”

Looking at the eunuch Wang in front of her, Princess Taiping's face was extremely ugly.

Zuo Dao said in a low voice: "At this time, Your Majesty should have a reason to seal the palace, and Your Highness might as well stay in the palace for a few more days." ”

Princess Taiping snorted coldly and said, "Okay, then you find me a sparring partner, I want to practice." ”

During this time, Princess Taiping's sparring partner has always been Wang Dajian.

Because although the current Princess Taiping has changed to the Taoist method, she has not fallen behind in martial arts.

When fighting, the two methods are used at the same time, and the ordinary innate realm cannot cope with it.

And not all ordinary people can enter this palace.

So only Eunuch Wang can be a sparring partner.

However, when the eunuch Wang was a sparring partner, he released water everywhere, which made Princess Taiping very dissatisfied.

So she asked Eunuch Wang to find a sparring partner outside the palace.

Eunuch Wang naturally knew that Princess Taiping was deliberately embarrassing him, and his face was also a little embarrassed.

But the next moment.

Seeing Zuo Dao raise his hand and wave, the flesh Buddha suddenly appeared on the side of the two of them.

Eunuch Wang disappeared in an instant and appeared in front of Princess Taiping.

After he was sure that the Flesh Buddha was nothing more than a puppet, he was relieved.

Then he spoke: "Lord Zuo is really lucky, even this kind of Buddhist treasure can be found." ”

Zuo Dao smiled: "It's just a little luckier." ”

Forthwith.

He looked at Princess Taiping and said, "Such a puppet, can you be a princess sparring partner?" ”

When Princess Taiping heard this, she snorted coldly and walked towards the martial arts arena.

……

And at the same time as entering the palace on the left road.

In the deep palace.

Cao Shengwang listened to the report of the eunuch under his hand, and the expression on his face was still indifferent.

Forthwith.

He took out a large medicine and swallowed it into his abdomen, his originally pale complexion, which was a little more ruddy.

After a while, he spoke: "Cao Yan, this little guy, like his grandfather, is more like his father, he is a restless person. ”

"They only think that I am for my own selfish desires, so I will refine the big medicine and live secretly in the deep palace."

"But what do they understand?"

"Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs, and saints are unkind, and people are used as dogs."

"Those people are not heaven and earth, nor saints, but they treat us as dogs."

"They don't dare to fight, but this king dares, but what is the matter, the limit of longevity has arrived, why not sacrifice some warriors and let this king open up a world for this cage?"

Speaking of this, Cao Shengwang couldn't help but cough lightly.

Then he looked at the retreat place of Pudu Cihang, and muttered to himself: "Since you can't wait to seek death, then I will fulfill you." ”

On his side, Eunuch Zhao said softly, "The Holy King still needs to take care of the dragon body!" ”

Cao Shengwang shook his head slightly, then stood up, straightened his spine, and the whole person seemed to be a lot taller.

At this moment, he seems to have become the king who founded the country again.

Sit cross-legged in the hut, quietly pranayama waiting.

Seeing this, Eunuch Zhao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and then left the hut directly.

When I came to the courtyard, I saw dark shadows coming from all directions.

Eunuch Zhao looked at everyone in the field, and there were only a few people left, all of whom were the great masters he had personally cultivated over the years.

The battle some time ago directly caused his great grandmaster to lose seventy percent.

Your Majesty, you really have a ruthless heart.

He glanced back in the direction of the palace's treasury and swept through some of the buildings scattered throughout the city.

Those old things, although they made some moves at the beginning, but this time I am afraid that they will not stand on the side of the Holy King anymore.

A group of dog thieves who committed the following crimes even dared to move their ancestors.

Thinking of this, Eunuch Zhao's face instantly became much more ugly, and then he spoke: "You will wait here for the next few days." ”

When a group of people heard this, they instantly responded.

Forthwith.

Eunuch Zhao looked at the person beside him and said, "Princess Taiping and the East Palace, have you arranged for manpower?" ”

When the man heard this, he nodded and said, "How many people have been arranged." ”

When Eunuch Zhao heard this, he raised his head and said, "Okay." ”

The voice fell.

He sat cross-legged in front of the hut, pranayama with his eyes closed, as if waiting for someone to arrive.

Early the next morning.

Cao Yan came to Pudu Cihang's retreat place, and looked at the closed door in front of her, her face was a little ugly.

It seems to have sensed that someone was coming.

The door to the retreat is opened.

Pudu Cihang slowly walked out of it, came to the front, and saluted Cao Yan in front of him: "Amitabha! The poor monk has seen His Majesty. ”

Cao Yan glanced at Pudu Cihang, and the expression on her face looked better.

Then he asked, "How are you recovering from your injuries?" ”

Pudu Cihang said: "The injury has recovered eighty percent, thank you for your grace." ”

Cao Yan turned around, looked at the hut in the deep palace, and said, "If you really want Xie Zhen, then remember to work hard." ”

When Pudu Cihang heard this, he smiled bitterly: "You don't need Your Majesty to say it, the poor monk will do his best." ”

"If this matter is successful, it will be enough, if it is defeated, Your Majesty may be fine, but the poor monk will die."

The purpose of the old ancestor to let him enter the imperial city, he was very clear.

Now that his demon pill has been cultivated, if he makes another move, the other party will definitely not show mercy.

And Cao Yan, no matter how rebellious she is, is also the blood of their Cao family.

And he is such a proud person, Cao Shengwang may not be able to kill him.

Thinking of this, Pudu Cihang's face was full of bitterness, and he sighed in his heart.

Hearing this, Cao Yan nodded slightly, and then looked around, only to see that black-robed figures had appeared beside him at some point.

In the palace, the East Palace and Princess Taiping, he has arranged enough manpower.

In the city of Kyoto, his thirteenth brother led the Jinyi Guard to supervise the hundred officials.

Even if some forces want to hook up with their ancestors, they will not escape the eyes of Jinyiwei.

It is impossible for them to make trouble in Kyoto City.

Just when Cao Yan was about to give an order, he wanted to go towards the hut in the deep palace.

I only heard Pudu Cihang speak: "Your Majesty, the moon is full tonight, it is better to go at night!" ”

Although now his strength has recovered to eighty percent.

But to face that old ancestor, it is indeed a little unsightly, and as a monster, the full moon night can play a greater role.

Cao Yan heard Pudu Cihang speak, pondered in her heart for a moment, and then nodded.

Then take people away.

And at the moment inside the East Palace.

The prince rarely stood in front of the window, beside him, Gongsun Ce guarded the left and right.

The prince looked at the weather outside the window and muttered to himself: "Tonight is the night of the full moon, and if there is a war, it will be tonight." ”

Gongsun Ce also nodded solemnly.

It's not just him.

The old immortals of the imperial family in Kyoto also noticed the celestial phenomenon tonight.

But without exception, they all hid in the retreat.

Cao Xiang sat in front of a high-ranking official's lobby, looking at the officials kneeling in front of him.

sighed: "The sky above your head is my imperial brother, why can't you figure it out?" ”

Inside the Royal Palace.

Princess Taiping is also rare and did not practice, just sat by the window in a daze, looking at the scenery outside the window.

Eunuch Wang was beside him, looking at the former with a distressed face.

Zuo Dao sat on top of the palace with a sting in his hand, and set up a small table in front of him, which was full of fine wine and food.

His eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the hut in the deep palace in the distance.

He could clearly sense that His Majesty had already set off with Pudu Cihang and the others.

It seems that the war will start tonight.
