Chapter 679: Like a Fish in Water

About the conversation between the two saints at the top of the Heavenly Worship Peak, naturally no one knows. It's just that after this, the entire Heaven Worship Sect opened the mountain sealing array. The people inside can't get out, and the people outside can't get in.

When he first heard the news, Zhuge Chen was not too surprised. He would have expected that the master of the Kuhai Courtyard would definitely solve his worries and let him eliminate dissidents in the imperial capital with peace of mind. After all, with his realm killing power, in the entire Western Shadow, there are only a few people who can pose a threat to him. Now it seems that they have all been recalled to the Heaven Worship Sect to maintain the great array that is known as connecting the heavens and the earth.

Zhuge Chen, who was on the edge of the pond in the small courtyard, listened to the sound of frogs, showed a mocking look, and said to himself: "A pseudo-saint, even if it is a sword cultivator, through the sect formation that has been in operation for many years, the killing power is indeed extremely high. But if you want to compete with the top saints, it's still a bit worse. At least in my eyes, it is the difference between good luck and Zhendao, which is the control of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and it cannot be compensated for by the level of lethality. ”

Saying this, he returned to the room and glanced at the official robes of the national teacher sent by the imperial court yesterday. After thinking about it, he still chose to put on his beloved white clothes and prepare to go out for the morning court.

He did not board the carriage that the royal family had prepared for him, and he dismissed the guards. If someone really came to assassinate him, these guards would only hold back, and one person and one sword would be enough to retreat from the enemy.

After showing the spy, he walked into the palace and was full of traffic. There are also officials who walk to the court, and when they look at the style of the official robe, they know that the official position is not high, and they have a sad face.

Bai Yi walked a few steps quickly, came to a lonely official, and said hello: "Brother, when you went to the court, which hall was you?"

The man turned his head, glanced at Zhuge Chen, stared at the white clothes that the other party was wearing, and whispered to him: "I said this, since you are here to go to the court, how dare you not wear official robes, but white clothes? If this is seen by the civil and military officials, if anyone stands up and impeaches you, isn't it a matter of saying a few words to punish you and send you to prison?"

Now the temple of the West Secluded is three-legged. They are the civil official faction headed by the prime minister, the military general faction headed by the general, and the inspector who is in charge of the punishment prison and has its own faction. As for the rest that are not divided into the three factions, they are naturally some worthless officials. A lifetime of climbing the temple can cross the five products and two said. Relying on qualifications, he can only be pressed by the young and high-spirited.

And Wang Qunde, who carefully suggested with Zhuge Chen, is this kind of person.

Zhuge Chen waved his hand and said, "Brother doesn't need to worry, I know it in my heart." Besides, what can you do if you're just dressed in white? If anyone really wants to punish the crime, they can make a fuss from anywhere. There is no word for the sin that I want to add, I am leading the snake out of the hole. ”

After hearing this, Wang Qunde swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and sighed in his heart that today's young man is really not afraid of heaven and earth, and he is afraid that no one will target him. Thinking that when he first put on this official robe, he was cautious, and the last court was also hiding at the end, and he could only faintly hear the emperor's voice. But even so, it made him feel that this life was worth it.

Since the other party said so, Wang Qunde was not easy to persuade again. The two walked side by side and ascended the temple together. It's just that what makes him feel strange is why the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are paying attention to him today, could it be that he is really lucky, and one of the three factions is ready to accept him and give himself a chance to be promoted and make a fortune?

Wang Dequn thought like this, and even raised his head a little when he walked. It was only when he entered the main hall that he found that the white clothes had left him and walked towards the front, and sat on the only chair he could see except for the dragon chair.

"You don't want to live anymore, so arrogant?" Wang Dequn hurriedly spoke, wanting to hold Zhuge Chen. It's just that Bai Yi didn't look at him, just tidied up his shirt and took down the wine jug at his waist.

Drinking alcohol in the temple is a capital offense. Wang Dequn could not imagine how he could have come with such a person, and if he was implicated, wouldn't it be a calamity? Where is this madman, it is clearly a "dead man." And then he found that next to the wine jug on the waist of the white clothes, there were two swords hanging on the left and right. Why, he is so bold that he dares to assassinate the king and kill him?

At this moment, a person beside Wang Dequn stepped forward and whispered to him: "Brother Wang, what's the matter, whatever good luck you have made during this time, you can talk to that person." ”

"Which one?" Wang Dequn glanced at the other party tremblingly, this person is the backbone of the Inspector Envoy faction, and although his status is low, it is only temporary. It only takes a few years of training, and the hard work is a veritable mainstay of this faction.

"Naturally, it's the white-clothed national teacher who has just taken office!" The man continued: "Brother Wang, you don't know that you have chatted with him all the way, right? The new official took office with three fires, and now the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are speculating where the white-clothed national teacher will put the fire. But looking at the way you look, I have my own guesses. ”

After hearing this, Wang Dequn forcibly stabilized his trembling legs. Turning his neck sideways, he decided to pretend to the end: "How could I not know, and the white-clothed national teacher has revealed some inside information to me......!

When the two were talking, they saw that in front of the civil and military array, one of them coughed twice, turned his head and said, "No matter how noisy it is, be careful that the old man orders someone to drive you two out!"

Wang Dequn hurriedly lowered his head, silent. The other party is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the old ministers of the two dynasties, if he really offends the other party, he will not be able to survive in this imperial capital. And the inspector just smiled, the backer behind him was the Heavenly Worship Sect, so naturally there was no need to be afraid of a scholar. It's just that he still has to give face, so he keeps his mouth shut.

Listening to Zhuge Chen's cold snort, a sword qi poured into his big sleeve, and the hall was silent. He stood up, walked in front of the Manchu civil and military forces, stopped in front of an inspector in the front, stretched out his finger and pointed to the vacant position beside him, and asked: "Who is this person, why didn't he come to the court today? If you are sick, it is best to return to your hometown immediately and take the money and do nothing." Why, do you want to sit and eat here?"

In just one day, Zhuge Chen collected a lot of information. The vacant position was reserved for the leaders of the Inspectorates. The other party's name is Sun Shenglai, and the four-character nickname is the Stone Buddha, and it has a lot of roots with the Heavenly Worship Sect. It is said that he is the son-in-law of a deputy sect master in the sect, and it is because of this that he got this authority. It's just that the other party doesn't respect the young emperor very much, and the matter of the last dynasty also depends on the mood. is also unscrupulous, after all, there are only a few people in the entire imperial capital that he cannot afford to offend.

And the origin of the stone Buddha is also because his oil and salt do not enter. Relying on his identity as an inspector, he has not been less targeted at the civil and military factions, and has used his power for personal gain.

"What did you say?" The man looked at Zhuge Chen with a smile, and said with a smile: "I didn't hear clearly, why don't you say it again?"

At the same time, he also threatened Zhuge Chen in his heart: "I know that you are a cultivator, but at such a young age, how high can your realm killing power be? It is better to be your national teacher honestly than to lose your life." Even the adults of my family dare to accuse, really in this imperial capital, is it the royal family who is in charge? Tell you, the Heavenly Worship Sect is the object you should worship the most. Now hurry back to your position, and go to the Inspector's Mansion today to apologize, I can turn a blind eye and choose not to blame the past. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Chen squinted his eyes and looked at him, and said, "How is it, is it finished?" Then a slap was slapped in his face like thunder.

"Just you, you still want to threaten me?" Zhuge Chen said mockingly, then looked at the guards outside the main hall, and returned with a white horse, snatched the other party's sword, and threw it on the man's face: "This is for you, come, and fight with me to the death." ”

There was a hint of gloom in the man's eyes, he grabbed his sword, and said, "You, a young national teacher, really want to settle things with me in this way? I thought you could sit in this position, and you would be a smart person anyway." I never thought that it was stupid and outrageous. Okay, I'll kill you in front of this Manchu Dynasty civil and military, and as for the subsequent punishment, it's all right. ”

The young emperor sat on a high place, his face calm. Now he can only choose to believe in the white clothes. As long as the disaster in the palace can be solved during this gap between the closure of the Heavenly Worship Sect, then no matter what, there will be a chance to turn defeat into victory.

"Your Majesty, you have also seen that it is not the ministers who are arrogant, but this person is really presumptuous. Where this sentence is contempt for the Inspector, it is clearly contempt for the entire royal family. The man said indignantly: "I am willing to take the place of the royal family and kill this fang!"

Anyone who hears these words has a different flavor in them. But Zhuge Chen was not angry because of this, he just stretched out his hand and pointed to the outside of the hall and said: "Don't be in a hurry to buckle your hat, the realm on your mouth will never be the real realm." I can't stretch my hands and feet here, how about we go outside the main hall?"

The man gladly accepted, and a ridiculous scene ensued in the palace. The civil and military officials stood on the stairs and watched with interest as the two of them fought with swords.

The young emperor always sat on the dragon chair, because he was not worried.

The eunuch came to his side and asked softly, "Your Majesty is not going to take a look?"

"What are you going to?" the young emperor snorted coldly and said, "If I had such no confidence in the national teacher, I would not have appointed him as the national teacher." ”

Sure enough, there was not even time for a stick of incense, and the civil and military officials took advantage of the prosperity and returned in defeat. With a single sword, the Inspector died outside the main hall. And the white-clothed national teacher just clapped his hands, looking very disappointed.

And when Zhuge Chen walked into the hall again, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all looked sideways, and they put away their contempt for his talents, and regarded him as an opponent worthy of being taken seriously. Some people, like this, no matter what kind of identity they appear in front of everyone, they will always shine.

"Now everyone, do you recognize my identity?" Zhuge Chen spread out his palms and said slowly: "If you haven't yet, it doesn't matter." Everyone is welcome to play against me, if you feel that you can beat me in terms of layout. If you fail miserably, the open-mouthed inspector outside the hall will be your fate. Remember, this is not a threat, it's a fact. ”

Inside the main hall, there was silence.

After a while, the white-clothed voice sounded again: "I'm not afraid of offending people, then the three major factions in the imperial capital, the inspector envoy has given a dismount, next, is it the turn of the civil and military factions? Wang Dequn, come to me." I want you, a person without factions, to tell your national teacher where the crimes of these two factions are. Otherwise, they always feel that the national division is making trouble. ”

On the dragon chair, the young emperor looked at the white clothes and said, "I can get you, it is tantamount to a fish in water." ”
