Suddenly hearing Li Ran's question, Wang Zhong of the Dongchang took the lead in getting up and said: "If you want to return to the country, Your Majesty will order the people of the Shinto Prison today to demolish the Qinglan Pagoda in the palace at all costs!"

"Qinglan Tower?

Li Ran's eyes lit up, and it seemed that the ultimate conspiracy was directed at this thing!

"Because"

Wang Zhong looked embarrassed, pondered for a while, and said: "According to that Kong Sheng, before he and Yuan Wenzhong, Kong Xiangyun, and Song Yu saw ghosts, one day in the small building in the middle of the lake near the Qinglan Tower, they were reciting poems, and suddenly the wind was blowing, and then, on the spire of the Qinglan Tower, they saw a woman who described a withered woman wearing a red dragon robe, which was the ghost of the old emperor of the previous dynasty. ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, and an invisible fear and chill swept into everyone's hearts again.

Li Ran didn't care at all, and took a leisurely sip of tea: "Go on." ”

"They were frightened and fled the scene, but at night they dreamed of the female ghost at the same time, and the latter told them that "

Speaking of this, Wang Zhong suddenly stopped, and looked at the officials around him with some concern.

"It's okay, everyone here is your own people," the prince continued. Li Ran said.

"The female ghost said that the rebel ministers who supported His Majesty to ascend the throne back then, none of them could escape, and she would let them die one by one until they were killed."

That Wang Zhong originally wanted to say "traitor", but fortunately he changed his words in time, and everyone knew what he didn't say later.

"Then does Your Majesty believe it?" Li Ran asked lightly.

"According to Gonggong Qiu, Your Majesty is a little suspicious, but these murders are too weird, and we have no clue here, plus this morning, the news that Kong Sheng was killed under the nose of several four-grade masters in Hongyingfang came to the palace, and His Majesty is a complete believer. ”

He deliberately said the words "Hongyingfang" very seriously, obviously trying to embarrass Wei Yuhong.

The love and killing between Dongchang and Hongyingfang can be said to be regardless of the occasion.

Sure enough, Wei Yuhong's face was gloomy, she lowered her head, gritted her teeth and couldn't bear it.

"Well, it's time for us to go to Qinglan Pagoda for a while, taking advantage of noon, the yin qi is not heavy, measure him to the evil ghosts, and don't dare to be presumptuous. ”

Li Ran said with a deep gaze.

Fortunately, when he had dinner with Xiao Wan'er last night, he made a correct decision and did not enter the palace to face the saint.

Otherwise, the empress was not right by his wonderful mouth, it was a wonderful hand and he was not right, in short, as soon as he appeased her, maybe she would not be so frightened, and she would not have made the decision to demolish Qinglan Tower.

In this case, the behind-the-scenes mastermind will naturally not be able to be drawn.

The clue is basically clear here.

This Qinglan Pagoda is the final key, and it is also the common intention of these masterminds from all directions.

"Let's go, go to Qinglan Tower. Li Ran clapped his hands and said.

In the north and south of the imperial palace, there is a courtyard full of flowers, surrounded by pavilions and pavilions, the scenery is pleasant, there is a high platform in the center, there is a tall platform in the center, there is a cyan stone tower that is more than ten zhang high, the shape is classical and elegant, the spire aura is around, there is quite a fairy Yun in the hope.

Of course, in the eyes of these officials around them, it is a ghostly spirit! It is a sinister atmosphere!

Fortunately, Xiao Wan'er, this girl was afraid of ghosts, so she didn't follow in, otherwise it would be really difficult to investigate many things at that time.

Li Ran stood at the foot of the tower, squinted his eyes and looked carefully for a while, as if he had found something interesting.

However, he didn't say anything, but asked the white-bearded old man who was standing beside him: "Xuanxin Dao Chief, what did you just say?"

"National teacher, this tower can't be demolished, it can't be demolished, I beg you to persuade Your Majesty. "The old man with a worried face.

"Oh, why can't you dismantle it?" asked Li Ran.

He saw that Xuanxin Dao's eyes flickered, and he seemed to have some concerns, so he hurriedly looked at the other officials, waved his hand and said, "All your lords, please step down first, I have important matters to discuss with Xuanxin Dao Chief, and no one is allowed to set foot in this place without my orders." ”

"Yes, National Teacher. Everyone nodded like garlic, this kind of ghost place, they don't want to stay for a moment!

"Dao Chief, can you say it now, the national teacher is willing to hear the details. Li Ran looked deeply at the old man in front of him.

"There is a formation hidden in this Qinglan Pagoda, which was set up by Emperor Murong Jun back then. Xuan Xin said in a deep voice.

"Well, I sensed it when I first stepped into here. ”

Li Ran nodded and said: "This contains a five-element defensive array, the array is placed at the spire of the tower, relying on the tower body, and the center of the formation stretches five hundred meters around. ”

"The national teacher and the national teacher are really gods!" Xuan Xin Lao Dao looked at the young man with shocked eyes, and a wave of reverence surged in his heart: "I can actually see through the mystery of this formation at a glance! After the death of Emperor Murong Jun, the head of the world's scholars is none other than the national teacher!"

"These polite words, the Taoist chief will not say anything. Li Ran waved his hand solemnly.

Indeed, this formation is clever in the eyes of ordinary alchemists, but in the eyes of an immortal cultivator, it is just a formation of foundation strength, except for the arrangement of the talismans inside the formation and the setting of the five elements very strictly, there is really nothing unusual.

But it's also powerful enough.

At least in this human world, the formation carefully arranged by a foundation building monk is impossible for a peerless martial artist in the world to break free.

This can be regarded as proving once again that this old brother Murong is indeed an out-and-out cultivator.

I don't know why, Li Ran suddenly thought that this guy was not dead, and then had a good academic exchange with him, after all, in this world, there are almost no known cultivators.

Yes, he stayed among this group of secular warriors for a long time, deeply feeling that he was too outstanding, left behind and independent, and had a sense of loneliness as a master.

Brother Murong, what I just thought was a joke, you can do it

Don't come back to life!!

After experiencing the Holy Decree of the Empress who came last night, Li Ran really didn't dare to easily set up a FG in his heart now!

Moreover, he is also for this Murong brother!

Just imagine, if he really came back to life and found that his wife was coughed up by him Li Ran, and then several baby daughters were jealous of him, I am afraid

I'm afraid I'm going to die again!

In all fairness, compared to what is the green knife man Chen Feng, the green lady Xie Huan, and the green manure.. Okay, forget about Wen Jie, in short, the most guilty and sympathetic person in his heart, Li Ran, is still this Murong brother who he never knows!

Thinking about his childhood memories in this life, he lived under the influence of this legendary person, but he didn't expect that after he became an adult, he counterattacked, entered the house, and carried out an NTR operation to exterminate his humanity!

To be honest, Li Ran is ashamed of this, and he is deeply helpless!

He really didn't want that!

He is a gentleman with discipline, and there are some things, even if he will think about it, but he will never do it!

In fact, so far, except for the one he expressed with Xiao Xuanyue, the goddess of beautiful legs, the others, from Xiao Qingxue to Xiao Yanshuang, he is indeed forced!

Even if it was the empress, she took the initiative to tease herself three times and twice!

Why is he innocent?

He's really miserable!

He doesn't know why, he has become the actor "Yellow Hair" in the island country movie in his previous life!

Ay.

A long sigh.

"National teacher, what are you sentimental?" I don't know how long it took, Xuan Xin Lao Dao couldn't help but speak.

"No, nothing. ”

Li Ran came back to his senses and regained his calm and indifference: "If my calculation is correct, the energy of this Qinglan Tower Array is all poured on the top of the "Military Council" in the southeast direction and the "Wenyuan Pavilion" in the northwest direction, and the radiation angle is very accurate, so there will be no mistake." ”

"So-"

Li Ran's eyes were like torches, and he looked directly into the old man's eyes: "Dao Chief, it's time for you to tell the national teacher, what great treasures are hidden in the upper pavilions of these two buildings?"

"I'm sorry, I can't say that, national teacher. Xuan Xin Lao Dao was in a cold sweat and avoided Li Ran's gaze.

"It's okay, then the Xuanxin Daoist will continue to hide it, anyway, Kong Sheng is dead, Your Majesty is determined to demolish this broken tower, and when the formation is broken, the real murderer hiding in the shadows will rush in, and rob the treasures in the "Wenyuan Pavilion" and "Military Council", after all, they used so many lives, for the sake of this. ”

Li Ran shrugged his shoulders and looked indifferent.

In fact, Li Ran could report the clues he currently controlled to the empress, and then send heavy troops to guard this place, so it would be foolproof.

But if he does that, first, he will startle the snake, and the real murderer will never show up, and he currently has no direct evidence to prove that the deaths of Wen Zhirong and several people are related to "them".

Second, he wanted to know whether the "inner ghost" hiding in the imperial court, and the big boss behind the inner ghost, was that woman!

The woman who had a spring night with him on the boat, Xiao - Liu - Smoke!

He had to stop her first!

"Everyone get along, at least, you have to wait for Lao Tzu to leave the imperial capital with his family and wife, and then you can do something! ”

Li Ran sighed in his heart.

"Couldn't you persuade Your Majesty, National Teacher?" Xuan Xin Lao Dao suddenly came up and said with a pleading face.

"Persuade?"

Li Ran smiled coldly and said deliberately: "Your Majesty has deeply believed that the ghost of the Qing Aya Empress is not dispersed at this moment, her emotions are out of control, and she is furious, who dares to persuade her? Moreover, listening to your tone, Your Majesty does not know that Murong Yu is hiding things in the Military Council and Wenyuan Pavilion. ”

"So, no matter what I say, with Your Majesty's temperament, this Qinglan Pagoda, she is demolished!"

After speaking, Li Ran looked at the four big characters of "peerless Qinglan" on the top of the tower with deep eyes, and muttered:

"Actually, I've always guessed that with His Majesty's majestic talent, wisdom and ability, in the matter of the Qing Aya Empress, it shouldn't seem so impulsive, so there must be some unknown entanglements between her and the Qing Aya Empress."

Indeed, in the coup d'état eighteen years ago, Murong Yu already controlled the core politics of the empire, and even though the Qing Silk Empress had 200,000 expeditionary troops loyal to her stationed in southern Xinjiang, she was also lacking in skills, and it was only a matter of time before she was annihilated by Murong Yu.

With the mind of Empress Xuanyue, she should know that after the overall situation is decided, the best thing to do is to use all means to coerce Empress Qingya to let Chan, get the orthodox jade seal, and then give her a "princess of Anle" or something, so as to block the mouth of the world.

So why would she choose such a move to burn her?

In Li Ran's view, there is only one possibility.

That's hate.

Jealousy between rivals!

Murong Yu, an old boy, has a personal affair with the Qing Aya Empress Bacheng!

Of course, Li Ran's speculation is by no means based solely on miscellaneous rumors among the people.

In fact, as long as you are careful enough, many things can be found from the history books that you have brushed aside.

In 830, the 21-year-old Taoist priest Murong Yu became the 14-year-old third princess Xiao Xuanyue's gentleman.

In 831 years of Daxuan, Empress Guanghua died, and the 25-year-old princess Xiao Qinglan ascended the throne, which was for the Empress Qingya, who was in the folk commentary, the gentle personality, generous and benevolent empress, the first thing she did after ascending the throne was to set up her sister's Jun Shilang, as the national teacher in front of the emperor, and let him as a military advisor, assist Han Dingfeng, the governor of the five armies, to lead an army of 800,000 to fight against the thousand-year-old enemy of the Central Plains Empire - Ice Country!

There is no need to think about it, and I know that this is definitely not the will of the Qing Aya Empress, but the plan of that genius from the sky, Murong Daoist.

This is interesting, the Empress Qing Aya, who handed over the command and strength of the battle that so determined the fate of the country to her brother-in-law, not her husband

In the middle, even if it's nothing, it can't be said!

Moreover, Li Ran has long heard that this so-called Qinglan Pagoda, formerly known as Qinglanfang, was a blessed land built for her during the reign of the Qingya Empress, Murong Yu secretly offered her affection, and after the death of the Qingyan Empress, it is estimated that it was to hide people's eyes and ears, so it was forced to transform into a pagoda.

Perhaps, there is also an adulterous affair between the two hidden here, and it is also because of this that Empress Xuanyue hates even more hatred, ignoring Murong Yu's entrustment before his death, and is bent on demolishing this tower.

Maybe she may also hope that through this incident, she will pull out this thorn in her heart in one fell swoop.

Of course, this is just a conjecture of Li Ran's position as a "friend of women".

In fact, what he admires the most is the methods of this group of people behind the scenes.

They must also know that the private relationship between Murong Yu and the Qingyan Empress is the only weakness of the Xuanyue Emperor, so they took the opportunity to create such an incident to break down her heart, as a woman's defense line, and finally prompted her to abandon her reason and tear down this Qinglan Pagoda under heavy pressure.

It's all through, it's all through.

"Daoist Xuanxin, are you ready to tell your national master? ”

Li Ran looked at the old Xuanxin Dao on the side, and used the last radical method: "If you don't want to witness the murderer succeed and the people of the world fall into the flames of war again." ”

"National teacher. Xuan Xin looked sad and sighed: "There are some things that Poor Dao really doesn't want to mention again, I'm afraid it will hurt the old people under Jiuquan." ”

"That's it, that's it. ”

He sighed and pointed to the plaque of "Peerless Qinglan" on the top of the tower, "If Poor Dao is not mistaken, there is a poem written on the back of that plaque. That's Emperor Murong Jun, written to the Emperor Qingyan of the former dynasty, you can be a national teacher."

Before he finished speaking, Li Ran directly stood up like an immortal, stepped into the void, and jumped to the top of the tower more than thirty meters high!

"Oh my God, there is such a light body technique in the world, this young national teacher, I am afraid that his future achievements are not under Emperor Murong Jun!"

Xuanxin Lao Dao deeply respected.

"Turtle turtle, there are really words!"

Li Ran looked intently and saw that the back of the plaque read:

The clouds are clever, the flying stars spread hatred, and the silver man is dark. As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world.

Tenderness is like water, the best period is like a dream, and you can endure the return of the Magpie Bridge. If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight?

I'll fuck your sister!

What the hell is the word you Murong Yu wrote?

The face is thick enough!

This is obviously a trick of Qin Guan, a lyricist of the Song Dynasty in China, and I also recited it in class in Laozi High School Chinese class

Wait a minute!

Li Ran suddenly reacted!

He realized something terrible!

How could this old boy Murong Yu read the poems of my Chinese boss?

Could it be that he is too

Wear--more-than-one!?
