Seeing that April is approaching, there are more and more merchants and travelers coming and going in Chang'an City.

This day is the end of the month, and the next day is the new moon, Jiang Fan opened the door that had been sealed for several days, and slowly walked out of the Yesheng small building.

Facing the dawn of the sky, he gradually walked towards the outside of Chang'an City.

Tomorrow is the deadline agreed with Gu Nianqing, before that, he has to hurry to the Xuanbing Sect Mountain Gate to participate in the disciple selection, with the identity of the Xuanbing Sect's disciple, he can be qualified to go to the Daomen Disciple Trial Competition.

Along the way, there are also more cultivators with hidden aura, and tomorrow will be the Dao Sect Disciple Trial Competition, such a grand event exclusive to cultivators, the entire Datang Dao Sect naturally can't want to miss it.

On the way, Jiang Fan looked at some of the people who were in the same way as him, and they were all stunned.

These people are all dressed in black robes and carrying big swords, which is extremely mysterious, if it is just like this, Jiang Fan will naturally not make a fuss, but he found that these black-robed people are all wearing a Baoding logo on their chests, and they are obviously all from the same place.

And what surprised Jiang Fan was that he still remembered the appearance of that symbol, when he and Lin Xu had gone to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion before, Jiang Fan could still remember the guardian on the first floor of the attic, and he was also wearing such small objects on his chest.

Could it be that these cultivators are all from the Heavenly Treasure Artifact Pavilion?

Frowning, Jiang Fan was a little surprised.

The Heavenly Treasure Weapon Pavilion actually wants to go to participate in the Dao Sect Disciple Trial Competition? But this direction is only going to the Xuanbing Sect, not the place where the Dao Sect disciples are trying to compete? Moreover, doesn't this kind of grand event require Taoist disciples to be qualified to participate? How can this Heavenly Treasure Weapon Pavilion be qualified to go to the weapon shop?

Thinking of this, Jiang Fan's heart was a little clear.

It seemed that what was hidden behind this Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was far from being as simple as he saw.

The young man suddenly involuntarily touched the center of his eyebrows, where there was a looming thunder sword shadow, this sword shadow was the thunder sword that had already been carved by him and recognized the lord by the soul brand that had been carved by him in the inner sky.

Thinking of the tone of the old man when he gave him the sword, and the reason, Jiang Fan suddenly felt a little uneasy, until now, he had a feeling of falling into a trap in his heart.

When those black-robed people all bypassed him, Jiang Fan came back to his senses, and when he looked at the back of the leading black-robed man again, he couldn't help but feel familiar, as if he had seen that person once upon a time.

At this time, a team of white jade beasts came from a distance, Jiang Fan turned his head when he heard the sound, and immediately knew that these people were from the royal family.

Just looking at the white jade beast cart, followed by a group of heavily armed Tang soldiers, Jiang Fan already knew where they came from. In this Chang'an City, the only people who can travel like this can only be from the royal family.

I don't know if the person in the car is the emperor or the emperor!

The young man's heart said.

The huge beast cart passed by everyone's side, and in countless eyes of envy and reverence, it quickly left, but what the white-clothed young man in the crowd didn't know was that when the beast cart passed him, a bright gaze in the cart also stayed on his body for a few seconds.

It's him?

The girl's clear beautiful eyes silently looked at the slightly ordinary teenager in the crowd, and her calm heartstrings suddenly beat quickly at this moment.

As if sensing her abnormality, on the side, Li Tianji, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who was originally closing his eyes and recuperating, suddenly opened his eyes, and looked straight at her with a pair of eyes that were not angry and arrogant.

"Qing'er, what's the shock?"

Hearing this, the girl turned around quietly, and bowed her head to Li Tianji in a gentle and peaceful voice: "Back to my father, Qing'er just noticed the many peaches and plums in this Chang'an City, and when she saw that they were all completely blooming, she felt a little reluctant!"

Li Tian looked at her indifferently, his face expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart at the moment.

"Qing'er is in her heart, but she has been blaming me?"

The emperor's gaze seemed so indifferent and unkind.

Half a month ago, the Chang'an Flower Festival was supposed to be a day for all the people to celebrate together, but it was rumored that the princess of the Tang Dynasty was attacked by the assassins of Western Chu.

In fact, this series of events is deeply buried and unknown.

If you talk about cause and effect, it is with the expansion and rise of Western Chu, which threatens the border security of the Tang Dynasty, which causes Li Tianji to stay awake all night, after all, the strong enemy is on the side, how can he not worry?

It was also at this time that the countries of the Southern Regions were attacked by Western Chu, and the Emperor of Wu in the Southern Regions sent his envoys to the Tang Dynasty for help, and Li Tianji naturally would not let go of this opportunity.

It's just that there is no reason to send troops to Xichu, and there is no reason to send troops to the world, so Li Tianji thought of a way to get this fair reason for sending troops.

And this reason is on the princess of the Tang Dynasty.

He secretly released the news that he wanted to marry the princess to the prince of Wu in the Southern Regions and marry with Wu Guo, and once Xi Chu learned of this "secret" letter, he would inevitably send assassins to take the princess's life in order to prevent their marriage.

On weekdays, the princess lives in the inner palace and is protected by countless royal masters, no matter how powerful the assassin is, he will never have a chance, so Li Tianji wants to create opportunities for the assassin. coincided with the arrival of the Chang'an Flower Festival during that time, so Li Tianji took this opportunity to release the news that the princess would also participate in the Flower Festival.

All the plans were carried out according to Li Tianji's strategy, but in the end, what surprised him was that the assassin sent by Western Chu was actually the world-famous blood scholar - Zhou Mingyu.

It was this unexpected point that made their plan almost fail, resulting in the prime minister's son-Gu Nianqing being killed together, but fortunately, the plan was successfully implemented in the end.

So, Li Tianji got a reason to send troops to attack Western Chu openly, and the final result of this matter was that Western Chu withdrew all the troops from the Southern Regions and defended the offensive of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, Li Tianji's purpose was only to stop the speed of Western Chu's expansion, so that the Southern Regions could get a respite.

And now, his goal has indeed been achieved!

This matter was carefully planned by Li Tianji alone, and all the civil and military affairs in the entire court were kept in the dark.

It's a pity that although the princess is young, she is very clever and intelligent, so in the end, this matter was not hidden from her!

"My father is the king of a country, and he is good at calculations and is also for the country and the people, Qing'er naturally understands, how dare he blame himself privately?"

The girl's gaze was still cold, and her voice was unchanged.
