Longqing Empire, Imperial Palace.

Although the sky was completely dark, the palace was still brightly lit, and you could see clearly everywhere you passed.

Ma Fangyu and Shi walked all the way, and finally came to the destination of this trip safely.

Ma Fangyu looked at the vast jade pond in front of him, which was not so much a pond as a lake, which reflected colorful light against the backdrop of the lights.

Ma Fangyu smiled bitterly, finding a small ring in such a place is really like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Since he has promised others, Ma Fangyu is not a person who regrets it. He looked at Shi Dao: "Big brother, if my expectations are good, that thing should be at the bottom of the pool." ”

When Shi heard this, he didn't say a word, but jumped directly into the pool and soon disappeared.

Ma Fangyu was quite moved in his heart, and he also jumped down with him.

The two held their breath and parted ways to search the bottom of the pool.

With his keen vision, Ma Fangyu can see the bottom of the pool clearly, but it is still not easy to find the ring.

At the same time, somewhere in the Imperial Garden, Long Yaohua was in front, and Song Zhizhi was behind, walking slowly all the way, not far from them followed by a team of dragon guards, the clothes of the dragon guards were different from the forbidden army, and they were all cultivated people from the dragon clan.

Song Zhi said: "Your Majesty, the Tianyi Sect has already touched most of the major cities and towns of the empire, and if it is not restricted, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future." ”

Long Yaohua looked helpless and said: "How to restrict us in the light, they are in the dark, even if they invite the Jiuxiao faction, they still can't completely wipe them out." ”

Song Zhi was silent for a moment, and then said: "Wei Chen believes that the intention of the Tianyi Sect is already obvious, and they are developing believers in the main cities, that is, they are accumulating strength, and one day they will launch a mutiny, and then it will be out of control. ”

Long Yaohua nodded, "I also know this truth, so I replaced the city lords and guards of each main city with people from my dragon clan. But there are so many believers, how can I do it?"

"Wechen has a plan, and he is willing to have a certain effect. Song Zhi smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth.

Long Yaohua suddenly became interested and asked, "If you have any good plans, tell me quickly." ”

Song Zhizhu replied: "Although there are many believers in Tianyi Sect, they are all ordinary people, naturally greedy for life and afraid of death, we only need to kill one hundred in various cities, and the Ming canonical punishment can play a sufficient deterrent effect, I believe that no one dares to be believers anymore." ”

When Long Yaohua heard this, he fell into deep thought, and soon showed relief on his face, and said: "This plan is good, it is not easy for us to deal with the people in the Tianyi Sect, can't we still deal with their believers, national teacher, you are really my lucky star, far more useful than Prime Minister Wang." ”

Song Zhi bowed down and said, "It is the duty of Weichen to solve problems for His Majesty. ”

"Hahaha" Long Yaohua turned around and patted Song Zhizhu on the shoulder with one hand, "The national teacher is worthy of being a pillar, then I will issue an order later, and let you be fully responsible for this matter." ”

Song Zhizhu replied respectfully: "Weichen obeys the order." ”

After that, the monarch and the minister continued to walk in the imperial garden, but changed to some light-hearted topics.

Looking at the jade pond again, on the surface, it was still calm.

Ma Fangyu didn't know how long he had been looking for the bottom of the pool, and he didn't know how far he had swam, when he suddenly found that there were light water ripples in front of him, and thought: "Could it be the big brother"

Ma Fangyu hurriedly swam over, the ripples became more obvious, and the human figure in the ripples gradually emerged, and a back was seen in the distance

Shadows looming.

It was a petite back, with a bare back, revealing fair skin, and long hair clinging to it.

When Ma Fangyu looked down again, his heart suddenly trembled.

"That's a woman"

Ma Fangyu secretly said that it was not good, so he quickly turned around and swam back as if fleeing for his life.

This movement must have alarmed the woman, and when she turned around, Ma Fangyu was no longer visible.

The woman subconsciously reacted to someone, and her delicate and beautiful face was instantly filled with anger.

As soon as she flew up, she grabbed it lightly with her right hand, and the clothes that had been placed on the tree flew over, wrapping her jade body in it. She spun around the air a few times, quickly put on her clothes, and slowly landed on a branch by the pool.

The woman's beautiful eyes stared at the pond water, and the anger on her face was even worse, and she yelled, "Who is it?"

The sound was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, causing the water to pop several times, and the water splashed in all directions.

When the water calmed down, Shi's head poked out first, and he looked around without knowing anything, just in time to meet the woman's gaze.

The woman's eyes seemed to be on fire, and with her hands stretched out, she turned into a streamer and grabbed at the stone.

Seeing that the other party was attacking angrily, of course he would not sit still, and with a light slap of his hands, a column of water formed and attacked the woman.

After a short encounter, the woman's attack directly broke through the water column and continued to attack the stone, which shows the other party's persistence.

Shi was forced to rise into the sky, driving a strong aura and directly choosing to resist the opponent's attack.

The woman's hands struck Shi's chest like this, and the two figures hung in the air at the same time.

At this time, Ma Fangyu also poked his head out, flew to the shore, saw the two of them tense and tense, and secretly said in his heart: "Big brother, I know that you have a strong defense, I'm sorry, I'll let you take the blame first."

Later, only an energy explosion was heard, and the stone and the woman's figures separated and landed on the two large trees opposite each other.

The two looked at each other, and the anger in the woman's eyes did not dissipate.

After the battle, Ma Fangyu judged for the first time that this woman was only seventeen years old, but her cultivation had reached the late stage of fusion, and she was considered to be talented.

Ma Fangyu saw that the current situation was trending towards a big trouble, so she hurriedly sent a message to Shi, "Big brother, don't entangle with her, run." ”

After listening to Ma Fangyu's words, Shi naturally stopped staying, and flew directly in front of Ma Fangyu, rising with him against the wind.

At this moment, the woman's figure landed in front of them, already with a long whip in her hand, and when Shi leaped into the air, she wrapped it around his right foot, preventing him from advancing a single bit.

"If you want to escape, first ask me if the long whip in my hand will agree"

Ma Fangyu saw that Shi was restrained, so he had to return to the ground with him, with a smile on his face.

"Beauty, is there any misunderstanding between you?" asked Ma Fangyu.

The woman glanced at Ma Fangyu, directly ignored his question, turned to look at Shi, and said, "Okay, you also bring a helper." ”

Shi touched his head, he really couldn't figure it out, so he had to ask: "Why did the girl kill me?"

Seeing Shi's innocent face and pretending to be fine, the woman's eyes were even more angry, and she shouted: "You deceive people too much, and when I catch you, I have to dismantle you." ”

With that, the woman raised her whip and fought with the stone again.

Ma Fangyu knew that he was at a loss, so he had to be honest

Watching the battle from the sidelines, he knew that with the strength of a woman, it was not enough to hurt Shi.

The two fought again, and the woman attacked quite fiercely every time, and Shi Pour was a little merciful, and the two sides fought inseparably.

At that time, two figures suddenly landed here, witnessing all this with their own eyes, and their eyes were full of surprise.

Ma Fangyu looked at the comers, one of them was extraordinary, wearing a golden dragon robe, and the other was Song Zhizhu before.

Ma Fangyu secretly said that it was not good, but he was afraid that he had attracted the master of the dragon clan, but now it is difficult to ride a tiger, so he has to think carefully about how to explain it.

Obviously, it was the emperor Long Yaohua and the national teacher Song Zhizhu who rushed here.

When Ma Fangyu looked at them, they naturally noticed Ma Fangyu as well, Song Zhizhi's eyes were a little strange, and Long Yaohua's expression was flat.

The two just looked at it like this, and didn't rush to make a move.

After a while, a large group of dragon guards rushed over and surrounded Ma Fangyu in the middle.

"Ahem, Shuang'er, stand down, don't you see that people have been letting you" Long Yaohua suddenly said in a positive voice.

When the woman heard this, although she was not convinced, but this was the case, she had no choice but to land in front of Long Yaohua and said, "Brother Huang, you have to be the master of your little sister."

Shi got rid of the woman and landed beside Ma Fangyu, at a loss.

And Ma Fangyu gasped after learning their identities, listening to their titles, thinking that one is the emperor and the other is the princess, and the trouble is not ordinary.

After comforting a few words softly, Long Yaohua asked, "Shuang'er, why did they offend you?"

It is true that the woman is Long Yaohua's younger sister, named Long Shuang, ranked tenth, and was crowned the tenth princess.

When Long Shuang heard this, a faint flush appeared on his face, how could he say this kind of thing, so he had to stomp his foot and said, "They just offended me, anyway, the imperial brother arrested them." ”

Long Yaohua's cold gaze fell on Ma Fangyu and Shi, and asked lightly: "Who are you, why are you pretending to be a forbidden army here?"

At this time, Song Zhi walked out, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen knows the identities of the two of them, they are the first two of the Xiuzhen Conference, and they are here today." ”

Hearing this, there was something strange in Long Yaohua's eyes, and his originally gloomy face eased down, "What the national teacher said, but it's true"

Ma Fangyu hurriedly pulled the stone and bowed down and said, "That's true." After that, the Medal of Honor was displayed.

Seeing this, Long Yaohua waved his right hand and withdrew the guards. Long Shuang knew the identities of the two, his anger eased slightly, and his eyes stared at the two as if he were looking at his prey.

Later, Long Yaohua continued: "Even so, if you pretend to be a forbidden army, break into the inner palace privately, and offend the princess, if you don't have a legitimate reason, you will not escape punishment." ”

Ma Fangyu explained: "Back to Your Majesty, although the two of us are cultivators, we have a strong interest in the palace. That's why he boldly pretended to be a forbidden army, also to get a glimpse of the palace. I never thought that this was the inner palace, and I hope Your Majesty will not blame it. ”

Long Yaohua thought for a moment, a little skeptical.

Long Shuang retorted: "Then why do you want to go into the pool?"

Ma Fangyu continued to explain: "It's all because when I passed through this place, I accidentally left a ring from my family heirloom in the pool, so I had to go down to look for it. ”

This set of lies made up by Ma Fangyu is very good, and it really makes Long Yaohua and Long Shuang not know whether it is true or false, and the situation seems to be slowing down.
