The majestic imperial city, the extremely high vermilion city wall, as if isolating a world, the city head has a black spot like the Tang Dynasty Imperial Forest soldiers, if you are outside the city, you can only see the high wall cornices are brightly lit.

Ma Zhibai followed the eunuch into the imperial city, and the two walked along the dense bamboo sea for about a few teas, passed through a wide rain corridor supported by red pillars, and came to a small palace with a plaque on it - the imperial study!

The little father-in-law turned his head and saluted, "Master Ma, the emperor is in the imperial study, you can go in!"

Ma Zhibai pushed the door into the palace, and there was a very high row of bookshelves in front of him, the bookshelves were horizontal and vertical, the style was relatively ordinary, and the only thing that attracted some attention was that the dense variety of books were extremely valuable and unique treasures, but no matter how much Ma Zhibai liked books on weekdays, he didn't have too much thought at this time.

He walked through the bookshelf and saw Emperor Xia, who was holding a pen to review the book, bowed to the ground, and said, "The guilty minister Ma Zhibai, see Your Majesty!"

Emperor Xia still reviewed the recital, did not raise his head, and said calmly: "Ma Qingjia, since the founding of my Xia Kingdom, there have been great cultivators and Jinshi ancestors who do not kneel when they see the emperor, why do you kneel?"

Ma Zhibai knelt on the ground and said, "Minister, if you have the grace of the saints, you read the books of the sages in vain, and you are not worthy of being a scholar, let alone a scholar." ”

Emperor Xia put down the notebook in his hand, then slowly raised his head, and said: "You can be regarded as I have grown up, this time, I have been waiting for you for a long time, after all, you still haven't let me down completely, get up!"

A trace of shock flashed in Ma Zhibai's eyes, and he slowly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you ......"

Emperor Xia chuckled lightly and said, "Do you really think that I am really such a wasteful emperor? You are making so many troubles down there, and you still think that you really want to hide from the world, this world is all mine, what can you hide from me? It's just that I want to give you a chance!"

Ma Zhibai felt a different emotion in his heart, knelt on the ground again, and said sincerely: "The guilty minister has failed the grace of the saint, the emperor has mistaken love, and the minister ...... Minister...... Ten thousand deaths!"

Emperor Xia waved his hand and said, "Get up, don't kneel down at every turn, I want courtiers who rule the world with me, not minions who listen to me for everything!"

Emperor Xia's voice was very flat, but it could always make people show all kinds of emotions, the only thing that was not lacking was the invisible oppression, which was different from the pressure of the great cultivators, this was a natural pressure, just like the fear of ordinary animals when they saw the king of the jungle.

Ma Zhibai felt more moved, the so-called death of a confidant is like this, he stood up and said: "The minister has failed the emperor's holy grace, and is willing to accept death, and the souls of thousands of soldiers in the sky can rest in peace, and His Majesty is wrongly loved!"

Emperor Xia shook his head and said, "Ma Qing's family, I have my own arrangements for your affairs, you ......"

At this moment, a little father-in-law suddenly came in from outside the door, and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Wufeng asks to see you." ”

Emperor Xia's expression moved, and he said, "Xuan!"

Mr. Wufeng is a very special person in the Xia Kingdom, although he is an official, he does not have any real power, just a sacrificial wine, or a sacrificial wine that rarely participates in royal ceremonies, but no one dares to ignore this Shilin Confucian, an idol in the eyes of those who study all over the world.

Even Emperor Xia is very respectful to Mr. Flawless, although he has been scolded many times by Mr. Flawless, Emperor Xia has always been a disciple of Mr. Flawless, and he will personally visit Mr. Flawless during the New Year's holidays.

However, Mr. Wufeng is not only the center of all readers, but also on the rivers and lakes, and is also at the peak of fame.

About sixty or seventy years ago, the world's top master, known as the world's first knife, and the world's three immortals can not distinguish the strong and weak Badao into Beijing, challenging Mr. Wuji, the two fought outside the imperial city for three days, and finally the Badao was suppressed by Mr. Wuji's Book of Changes, and since then he has been hidden in the rivers and lakes, and has never appeared again.

At that time, not long after the founding of the Xia Kingdom, it was in the midst of internal fluctuations, wind and rain, foreign enemies were eyeing each other, and there was chaos in the rivers and lakes, but because of the imperial city's hegemony, the prestige of Mr. Wufeng suppressed the rivers and lakes for decades, and the Xia Kingdom also took the opportunity to stabilize and create six doors to supervise the rivers and lakes and maintain order!

Xia Guo's civil and military style is so prevalent, and its source is inseparable from Mr. Wuji.

Mr. Wufeng has no interest in power, even if he is a good emperor of Xia Guo, he has watched several changes, but each of them has some incomparable respect for Mr. Wuji.

Hearing that Mr. Wufeng asked to see him, Xia Huang Tang Peiyan tidied up his clothes, walked out, and saw Mr. Wufeng in a simple Confucian shirt, his eyebrows were straight like a ruler, his eyes were bright like a spring, and every step he took was a little slow.

Mr. Wufeng saluted: "I have seen Your Majesty!"

Ma Zhibai was a little excited, and hurriedly saluted: "The junior Ma Zhibai has seen Mr. Wuji." ”

Tang Peiyan saluted: "Student Tang Peiyan, I have seen Mr. Wuji, but I don't know if Mr. is visiting late at night, but what is the important matter?"

Mr. Wufeng first nodded at Ma Zhibai, turned his head to look at Emperor Xia, always with that gentle smile on his face, and said, "Your Majesty, that kid Gu Qingci is making trouble again." ”

Emperor Xia and Ma Zhibai were stunned, and Emperor Xia was puzzled: "What did he do again?"

............

The night was already very deep, the Ma family's mansion was in chaos, Gu Qingci stood quietly, the majestic true qi like the scorching sun on his body was still stirring up the moist wind, and the night clouds seemed to be a little chaotic, whistling and rolling up a lot of dust.

Yi Bo looked at Gu Qingci and said slowly: "Gu Gongzi, your mother and younger brother are really not in our hands now, you can ask the qin idiot." ”

Gu Qingci sneered and said, "What, can you shirk the relationship if you don't have it in your hands?" Your ideas are too naïve, no matter what happens tonight, you Ma Dongyang have to give me an explanation." Do you really think that in this world, anyone can touch my Gu Qingci's family casually?"

Yibo was a little annoyed and said: "Gu Qingci, what do you still want, we don't care about you forcibly breaking into the Ma Mansion, and your mother is no longer here, what else do you want to entangle?"

"Entanglement!" Gu Qingci's eyes froze, and he said coldly: "Lao Tzu will let you know what entanglement is today!"

As soon as the words fell, the sword suddenly fell from the sky, containing extremely powerful killing intent, and made a roaring sound like destruction, as if the mountain peak was toppling, and the boundless night clouds were oppressing, and it slashed directly towards Ma Dongyang and a few people, covering the sky and the moon, and roaring infinitely.

Seeing this sword coming, the faces of several great cultivators around Ma Dongyang changed drastically, and all of them burst out of their true qi at the same time, and the ground suddenly shattered, but that sword carried supreme power and came to kill him, it was a sword of killing intent that was obviously scorching but made people cold!
