"Yun'er is here."

"Auntie."

Concubine Qin has always respected Xiyun's own wishes, and for the sake of the artifact Xiyun had to have some intersections with the imperial family, but he was reluctant to have too many intersections with the imperial family. Governing the country and leveling the world is not Xiyun's ideal, and the imperial family is more and more complex than ordinary families.

In fact, since Xiyun left his master, he has not figured out what the direction of his cultivation is, whether it is to reach the peak, or to travel in all directions, or to guard a small world and finally drown in the galaxy of history.

Xiyun doesn't know what to do in the future, but the road now is to collect the nine artifacts, and maybe when the artifacts are collected, the light guiding his direction will be lit.

Nine artifacts are distributed in Kyushu, so Xiyun must be going to travel all over Kyushu, so how can he be affected by the trivial matters of the imperial family in Muyang Prefecture.

"Auntie thinks Yun'er should meet with His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty used to just watch our mother and son chatting from afar," Concubine Qin said and stroked Xiyun's hair, "Although my aunt is Your Majesty's favorite concubine, she has never given birth to a dragon son for Your Majesty, do you know why?" ”

"Your Majesty is diligent and rarely has time to come to the harem, although my aunt is a favorite concubine, she is only one of the favorite concubines. If the rain and dew are evenly wet, then there will be less time for each mother. ”

"That's just one of them." Concubine Qin sighed, "My aunt was born into a family of cultivation sects, and the Liu family controls an entire huge Xuantian Sect. According to the rules of our country, a woman from a family of the sect who cultivates is not allowed to give birth to a prince when she enters the palace as a concubine. ”

"Why?"

"Martial cultivators are above ordinary people, and the million-strong army in the northern realm may not be as good as an immortal-level cultivator. The cultivation sect and the family are beyond the mortal, but if they intervene in the struggle of the royal family, it will be just one force, what if many forces intervene together? ”

"The sect war, the country has no peace." Tidal Cloud Road.

"That's right." Concubine Qin touched Xiyun's head, "So the rules handed down by the ancestors are that when a woman from a cultivating family enters the palace as a concubine, she must reduce her contact with the family, and at the same time, she is not allowed to give birth to a prince." ”

"Then Yun'er is also my aunt's child, why does Your Majesty still want to see Shangyun'er?"

"Because Yun'er is not a real sect disciple, and Yun'er can't be regarded as a prince in the real sense. And His Majesty knows that Yun'er is just for the clues of that artifact, so as long as Yun'er is given a convenient and easy-to-use identity. ”

"Then it's up to my aunt to decide."

"Hmm." Concubine Qin pinched Xiyun's cheek dotingly, "Go ahead." ”

"Goodbye, Auntie." Xiyun said goodbye to Concubine Qin, and then the next day he met Li Tianyuan, the current emperor of the northern realm, under the recommendation of Concubine Qin.

A middle-aged man in civilian clothes sat in front, the man's face was resolute, his sword eyebrows were starry, he was not angry and self-imposing, and his whole body revealed a majestic and domineering spirit.

"Xiyun has seen Your Majesty." Xiyun knelt down on one knee and saluted Li Tianyuan.

"Hurry up." Li Tianyuan motioned for Xiyun to flatten down, Xiyun stood up, and Concubine Qin also walked up and grabbed Xiyun's arm.

"Your Majesty, do you see that the concubine and Yun'er have a mother and son?"

"Yes." Li Tianyuan said with a smile, his smile was a little more kind, "Yun'er, come forward and let me take a good look." ”

"Go ahead." Concubine Qin walked up to the emperor with Xiyun in her arms, and the emperor stood up and looked Xiyun up and down.

"Pianpian young man, really extraordinary." The Emperor smiled and sat down, "Sit down." ”

"Yes." Xiyun sat on the chair on the other side, and Concubine Qin followed to sit between the two. Because Xiyun is the righteous son of Concubine Qin, and Concubine Qin is the wife of the emperor, it is natural that Xiyun has also become the emperor's righteous son, and at the same time, in order to reward Xiyun for turning the tide in a station on the border, the emperor also gave Xiyun the title of "Marquis of Yunwu", and gave a village in the south of the capital to Xiyun to be the Marquis of Yunwu's mansion

"Congratulations Yun'er."

"Thank you, father, thank you, aunt."

"One family doesn't talk two words." Li Tianyuan enjoyed the time with Concubine Qin and Xiyun very much, and with Concubine Qin's mother and son, he could let go of his identity as an emperor and get along like an ordinary family, without all kinds of troubles and bad things that he needed to deal with as an emperor. Therefore, after Xiyun was canonized as the Marquis of Yunwu, the emperor and Concubine Qin would also go to Xiyun's Wuhou Mansion to relax.

After Xiyun moved into the Wuhou Mansion, he invited Bai Baihong, Bai Shaoqing, and Liu Miaoyin to gather in the Wuhou Mansion, and the Moon Dance Twins were naturally among them, and the Moon Dance Twins proposed to leave the sect and follow Xiyun, and Liu Miaoyin also readily agreed.

"Li'er, you go and arrange a place for the two sisters to live."

"Yes."

Li'er took the Lin sisters and left Xiyun's small courtyard. The Yunwu Marquis Mansion occupies a large area, and entering from the main gate is a front yard, and there is a hall in the front yard that is a place to receive guests on a daily basis. There is a separate courtyard in the east and west of the front yard, and the Lin sisters are arranged in the east courtyard. To the north of the front yard is a main courtyard, which is naturally the courtyard where Xiyun lives, and there is a garden in the east and west of the main courtyard. Further north, there are two courtyards, east and west, one is the kitchen, and the other is a row of houses, which should be where the people live. It's just that now in this Yunwuhou Mansion, in addition to Xiyun, there are only Li'er and Lin sisters, the Lin sisters live in the east courtyard, and Li'er lives in the main courtyard of Xiyun, and there are no people living in that row of houses. Originally, Li Tianyuan planned to distribute some subordinates to Xiyun, but Xiyun refused, Xiyun himself didn't know how long he would stay in Muyang Prefecture, and the words of the subordinates would be added to it slowly.

"Father, Yun'er is here."

It has been more than ten days since Xiyun was canonized as the Marquis of Yunwu, and basically nothing major has happened in these ten days, and the border between the north and the south has always been very peaceful, and it is estimated that most of it is because of Xiyun. The interior of the country is also smooth, as if the north has been particularly blessed by the gods since Xiyun came, and Emperor Li Tianyuan is rarely idle, so he went to Xiyun's Wuhou Mansion with Concubine Qin when he had nothing to do.

"Good boy," in the imperial study, the emperor sat behind the desk and beckoned Xiyun to come to him, Xiyun walked to Li Tianyuan's side, Li Tianyuan patted Xiyun's head, "You are really a blessed general for your father, since you came to our northern border, there are a lot less messy things." ”

"Bai Lao said that Yun'er's spirit core may be the legendary Rui Beast, maybe that's exactly the case."

"I called you over today to give you this." Li Tianyuan asked the eunuch next to him to take a wooden box and hand it to Xiyun, who opened the wooden box and found that there was a cyan carved dragon-shaped jade pendant inside.

"This jade pendant is a token that guides the secret realm where the artifact is located, and the other half is in the hands of the southern royal family." Li Tianyuan said and took Xiyun to the side to sit down and chat, and the old eunuch also followed to serve tea and pour water, "Originally, the northern and southern realms were two great families from the same cultivation sect, but just a thousand years ago, the two great families turned against each other for some reason, and the super sect at the peak of the cultivation sect also disappeared because of the opposition of the two families, and the two tokens were combined into one and were the token of the sect master of the super sect back then. ”

"And then?"

The two great families parted ways and took away half of the tokens each, and then began their respective journeys of hegemony. They each began to annex large and small families and nobles, and in less than three years they established two empires, the north and the south. Thousands of years of history have passed, and the families that established the empire have long been submerged in the stars of history, and countless regimes have alternated to form the current pattern. ”

"The token has been circulating for thousands of years?"

"Yes, these two tokens have always been considered symbols of the legitimacy of imperial power."

"Since it is a symbol of the orthodoxy of imperial power, how did Yun'er get the token of the southern border?"

"Your puppet secret art is unparalleled in the world, as long as you are willing to hand over the secret art, the southern realm will naturally give away the token."

"The puppet secret technique goes against the sky, and the powerful puppet can even kill the gods in a battle, and it is easy to hand it over to the southern border, I am afraid that Muyang Prefecture will have no peace."

"Therefore, my father will definitely try his best to help you get a token, and he must not let you exchange it with a secret method."

"Hmm." Xiyun put away the jade pendant and then asked, "Father didn't call Yun'er here today just to give the token to Yun'er." ”

"Naturally, there are other things to ask Yun'er." Li Tianyuan said, "In three days, it will be the day when the Holy Land of the Gale Wind Immortal Emperor will open, and the major sects and the two royal families will send disciples to practice. This time, we will send two disciples to the north, the third prince Youlin, the young snow princess, and more than ten brocade guards, and the leader of this trip is the first master of the inner iron hand Li, Li Gonggong. It's just that I'm still a little relieved by this configuration, so I hope you will go with me. ”

"It's incumbent." Xiyun smiled.

"Alright, you can get ready to go."

"Yun'er said goodbye."

Xiyun said goodbye to Li Tianyuan, and after Xiyun left, the eunuch beside Li Tianyuan watched Xiyun's back disappear completely before he whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty, is this okay?" ”

"I just hope that Yun'er can protect Xue'er."

"What about the three princes?"

"Just let the cruel reality beat him well, and order the Shadow Guard to wait for the opportunity to kill Li Ying."

"Yes."

Three days later, the team set off. The third prince, Li Youlin, was dressed in black, and his service seemed to be the service of the senior governor of Jinyiwei. Young Snow Princess, Li Tianyuan's fourth child, dressed in white and snow, with long hair fluttering, like a noble angel. There are a total of thirteen brocade guards accompanying the guards, all of them are grandmaster level, it seems that this level is not enough to see in this trip to the Holy Land, maybe there is something special about these thirteen brocade guards. The strength of the old eunuch who hid himself under the cloak was not as good, he should have an immortal level, as for the third prince Li Youlin, Xiyun couldn't see through his strength.

"Let's go." The old eunuch's voice was very hoarse, I don't know if he did it on purpose or if he had always voiced like this. With the order of the old eunuch, the royal team set off, the old eunuch led the way in front, behind the thirteen brocade guards, and the two carriages in the middle walked back and forth, each accompanied by a coachman and a guard, and the level of the coachman and the guard was also at the level of the fairy vein.

"Hmm." Xiyun followed the team with a homemade flying board at his feet, all the way to the Rising Mountains.
