Chapter 40: The Great Practitioner

Gu Qingci's voice, like a thunderclap in winter, exploded in the sky, shocking everyone, he dared to insult the princess so bluntly, even Pang Shilong was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he almost didn't kneel, this county lord is really famous.

The literary style and martial style of the Xia Kingdom are very popular, not only are there masters of martial arts who disdain the imperial power, but there are also world-famous Confucians who dare to point at the emperor's nose and scold, and now Mr. Confucian, who is still holding an official position in the court, once blocked the toilet and scolded the current emperor, and even the prince was chased and beaten for a few streets.

In this Xia country, although the imperial power is deep-rooted, but the warriors of the rivers and lakes are not weak, in order to balance, the status of the scholar is naturally high, and even sometimes it can be said that in the face of the imperial power, the status of the scholar is higher, because the scholar is high, all of them are stunned, not afraid of death, but they are very supported by the people of the world.

And now, knowing that Gu Qingci was scolding the princess, Pang Shilong and Ma Shilian were not too afraid, especially Ma Shilian, who admired Gu Qingci even more, knowing that the scholars were not convicted of scolding the emperor, but whether they dared to do it or not was another matter.

As a princess, Tang Yun naturally knows better than most people about today's preferential treatment of scholars, so now she is scolded by Gu Qingci, but she can only be so angry that she wants to bite Gu Qingci, but she can't use the power of the princess to convict Gu Qingci of any crime, if she really does this, I am afraid that in the end, Gu Qingci will not have a big deal, and she will be criticized by the world's scholars to the point that she dare not go out.

Gu Qingci is a first-class jinshi, a scholar with a strong roots, he knows very well the status of scholars in this society, so he dares to be unscrupulous, even if he offends the princess, he is not afraid, in addition to knowing that he will not be convicted, there is also a point that he is more of a Jianghu person, or a Jianghu person with a golden finger, it is a big deal not to be an official and leave directly.

But although Gu Qingci is quite calm, he will definitely kill this soldier ruffian in his hand, he is a first-class martial artist, or a first-class martial artist who can defeat a martial artist of the Hooded Qi Realm, holding a soldier ruffian of the third-rate realm at most, there is no pressure at all.

Tang Yun was very angry now, but he had a deep sense of helplessness, he didn't expect that Gu Qingci not only had profound martial arts, but also had such a high heart, those errand servants were obviously ordinary people, but even though they knew that she was a princess, they were still willing to hold a bow and crossbow against her for Gu Qingci.

What made her regret even more was that she actually offended such a young man with potential, although she was a princess, but the royal family was ruthless, she also needed to gather her own power to protect herself, but those great cultivators could not be co-opted by her, with her status as a princess, she would be able to win over a few Qi Realm martial artists at most.

But now, Gu Qingci in front of her is not weaker than a Qi Realm martial artist, and moreover, he is still very young and has unlimited potential, and it is almost certain that he will become a great cultivator in the future, but now, he is so stiff, it is almost life and death.

What's more, Gu Qingci's identity is not ordinary, there is only one possibility to be a county commander in front of him, that is, a first-class jinshi, the emperor is personally sealed, and it is very likely to enter the imperial history platform in the future, and in terms of the hearts of those who look at Gu Qingci in the county government, his ability must be very strong, and it should be no problem to enter the imperial history platform, this kind of identity is even more worthy of being wooed, even if it is under the prince, there are few such talents.

Tang Yun's mind turned a thousand times, as a member of the royal family, her city was very deep, and her thoughts were clear, so she calmed down in an instant, and said calmly: "Lord Gu, the palace doesn't care about you for your gaffe, but, you can't kill this person, even if he is guilty, you have to interrogate him, you let him go first, is it feasible?"

Gu Qingci smiled coldly and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, I didn't say that just now, if you had said so earlier, this county wouldn't have done it yourself!"

Tang Yun couldn't help but want to roll his eyes, and wanted to grab Gu Qingci and scold him in his heart, if he had known that you were so powerful, then he would still be a fart, who knew that there could be a person like you in this poor country.

Tang Yun spoke: "Master Gu......"

Gu Qingci suddenly pulled out the waist knife of an errand officer next to him, put it on the neck of the soldier, used his internal strength, and said righteously: "Our soldiers of Great Xia are the patron saints of our Great Xia, which one is not an iron-clad man, and which one is not a spilled blood to protect the people, but this kind of attempt to harm the people is a scum who sows discord between the county and the princess, how can you be qualified to be called my soldier of Great Xia?"

Tang Yun choked for a while, the air was silent instantly, and suddenly, someone among the onlookers shouted: "Master Gu is right, this kind of person is rat!"

The people began to commit, Tang Yun's face instantly became very ugly, and Gu Qingci continued to say loudly: "Then you say, this kind of person should be killed!"

"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill......

With Gu Qingci's popularity in Changling County, he raised his arms and shouted, except for rebellion, he was basically able to get the support of most people, and now, even more so, not to mention, Gu Qingci also made a lot of sense.

"That county will be killed today, so as to be a positive example......"

"Gu Qingci, stop!" Tang Yun's face was very ugly, and he said coldly: "You killed a few people before, and this palace won't care about you, but now, if you kill people in front of this palace, at least you have to give me an explanation!"

"Hmph!" Gu Qingci snorted coldly, he didn't speak, and it was impossible to release people, if this princess could say it well at the beginning, and not be so domineering, he would definitely not be like this, but before, what kind of bullshit general killed him, he didn't live with the princess, he was already saving face, and now he still wants to release people?

Gu Qingci glanced at the princess, with a wave of the waist knife, he slashed down in the sky, seeing that the knife was about to fall on the neck of the ruffian, a short knife suddenly flew out of the tavern, with bursts of gas fluctuations, cutting through the surrounding snowflakes, and in the long wind and snow, an arc was drawn, hitting Gu Qingci's hilt, and then it stood in the air, facing Gu Qingci's eyebrows.

The powerful power fluctuation made Gu Qingci's palm ache, and the waist knife he held fell to the ground instantly, splashing a snowflake, Gu Qingci reacted very quickly, knowing that he had met a master, he lightly flew back, leaving a trace on the ground on the soles of his feet, and he pulled out another errand knife, at the same time, with a pause under his feet, his body leaned forward, and he slashed off the short knife with one sword.

Boom!

The calcium carbide spark flashed, the short knife trembled, and suddenly flew back into the tavern, Gu Qingci gritted his teeth, and threw the waist knife along the trajectory of the short knife with all his strength!

However, before Gu Qingci could react, the waist knife he had just sent actually paused at the door of the tavern, and then shot at him at great speed, like a thunderbolt in winter, unguardable, as if crossing the space, it was coming in an instant!
