Qingzhou City, the capital of Qi State, is one of the most prosperous cities in the northern region, with a population of hundreds of thousands, shops in a forest, people coming and going, singing and singing halls, silk and bamboo fluttering, the long street is bustling with people, and there is a scene of singing and dancing everywhere.

And now seeing that the end of the month has come to the 10-year Xianmen election day, the city is full of tourists from all walks of life, many people drag their families to come thousands of miles, only hope that their children can be selected, from then on the carp leaps over the dragon gate, become the immortal that everyone admires.

In the whole city of Qingzhou, there is no place for the inn to settle down now, and the price has risen tenfold compared to usual, and those poor people from distant villages can only sleep on the streets, but most of them will not be driven away as beggars if they have brought enough entanglements with relatives and friends.

Such a grand occasion once every ten years, the people in the capital have long been accustomed to it, but only this year is different, in the past, the immortal gate enshrined by the Qi country is the legendary Yunshui Mountain immortals, and now, the king of Qi began to worship the seven immortal caves thousands of miles away, and also built a Taoist temple in the palace, it is said that there are seven immortal caves in the temple The immortals settle down, pray for the king and the entire Qi country.

It's just that many merchants and civilians in the city are accustomed to worshipping the statues of Yunshui Immortals at home, but this is not something that can be changed overnight.

It is the nobles of the Qi country, and there are not a few people who think that the monarch's deception will bring trouble, but most of these opposing opinions have been suppressed by iron and blood, and now there are only people talking about it in private, but no one dares to speak about it anymore.

Among these nobles, the most powerful ones, only the left prime minister Lu Zhuang, who has been the lord for generations, has not been dismissed by the king of Qi because of his great virtue, but he has also been ordered to think about it behind closed doors, and he has not been to the court for more than a month.

Late at night, when the bright moon was in the sky, in the back garden of Xiangguo's mansion, Lu Zuoxiang was pacing with a worried face, and by his side was a young man with a face like a crown of jade, who was his beloved son called Lu Guang, and was a tiger guard, the so-called tiger ben, which was the palace guard, composed of the sons of the princess or the prince. Because of their superior family background, they were also well-equipped, guarding the royal palace in peacetime, and being around the king in wartime, and were the main force in the army.

"Father, let's rest early!" Lu Guang sighed softly, the state affairs were difficult, and in just a few months, his father's hair seemed to be completely white.

Lu Zuoxiang glared at him: "I asked you to take care of Mrs. Yunshang more in the palace, but you just don't listen! That is, it is not worth it, how important is the matter in the palace? You are at the age of making meritorious contributions, how can you love your family?

Lu Guang didn't dare to talk back, and hung his head silently.

Lu Zuoxiang shook his head again and sighed deeply, "Tiger Benjun Tiger Benjun, they are all yellow-mouthed children like you, but you want to protect the Wang family?"

Lu Guang's face turned red, and he muttered in a low voice: "It's just death!"

"Confused!" Lu Zuoxiang narrowed his eyes, "If you wait for death, you will die, the king's foundation will fall into the hands of traitors, and you will die if you wait, it is a great crime!"

At this moment, he suddenly heard the noise of people outside, and Changshi almost staggered into the courtyard with a roll, "Xiangye, Xiangye, the king suddenly fell unconscious, Xinyangjun led his attendants into the palace!"

"What?!" Lu Zuoxiang's face changed color, he glared at Lu Guang fiercely, and he didn't care about reprimanding him anymore, and said hurriedly: "Quickly prepare for driving!"

Lu Guang was also shocked, so he went home tonight, but he didn't expect something to happen tonight.

The king of Qi is old and decrepit, the crown prince is young, and there is an undercurrent surging in the court, and there is no shortage of voices saying that the king of Xinyang should inherit the throne.

That Xinyang Jun is the half-brother of the King of Qi, quite trusted by the King of Qi, in the prime of life, his diners are 3,000, each has extraordinary ability, a few months ago it was under the persuasion of Xinyang Jun, the King of Qi decided to change the dynasty to serve the immortals of the Seven Immortal Caves to protect the national fortune of the Qi country, it is said that this is the idea of the diners under the door of Xinyang Jun.

And now, the king of Qi's body is getting weaker and weaker, and the power of Xinyang Jun is increasing day by day, and it is even more spreading, and the immortals of the Seven Immortals in the palace are also spreading immortal sounds, and Xinyang Jun is the master of the national fortune of Qi.

Today, the king is in a coma, and Xinyangjun immediately has a strange move, obviously because of the wolf's ambition.

Lu Guang couldn't help but regret that he would leave the palace today, so he hurriedly went to find the driver, drove the car in person, and pulled his father all the way to the palace.

The moonlight was bright, and along the way, I saw people sleeping on the street with children on both sides of the street from time to time, Lu Guang sighed in his heart, knowing that this was a remote place, and the people who came to participate in the election of Tiantong.

To say that he, ten years ago, also participated in the grand event of Yunshui Xianmen to select Tiantong, but his qualifications were not enough to be selected, this is the biggest blow he has suffered from his always proud, that is, now that he thinks about it, he has a lot of melancholy in his heart.

"Hurry up!" In the carriage, Lu Zuoxiang's anxious voice sounded.

Lu Guang secretly said ashamed, raised his whip vigorously, whipped the horse with a mournful roar, spread his four hooves, and galloped like a rapid drum on the bluestone road.

The Prime Minister's Mansion is not far from the palace, and after half an hour, the palace is forbidden in front of it.

There were faint traces of blood and several corpses at the palace gate, and even the red palace lamp hanging high was burned to a black bone stick.

Lu Guang was in a hurry, urged the carriage to rush directly into the palace gate, and turned a corner, so that he could feel at ease.

But in front of the dormitory, hundreds of brightly armored guards of the forbidden palace were waiting for them, and opposite them were Xin Yangjun sitting on a horse and more than a hundred black-armored attendants who exuded a cold aura behind him.

"If you don't get out of the way, don't blame this son for treating you for the crime!" Xin Yangjun had a cold face, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"Xinyangjun, did you break into the palace late at night and kill the guards of the forbidden palace?" A cold voice, the door of the dormitory suddenly opened, and a beautiful lady in a brocade skirt walked out of it, with a hibiscus face and peach cheeks and apricot eyes, and her lips were lightly opened, with a majesty of her own.

It is Mrs. Yunshang, the princess of Qi, the biological mother of the current prince.

Xinyangjun's eyes were cold again: "The family and the country are important, how can you allow a female streamer to talk about it?

"Bold Xinyangjun!" Lu Zuoxiang's face sank like water, and he got out of the carriage with the help of Lu Guang, pointing at Xinyangjun, so angry that his beard was shaking.

Seeing Lu Zuoxiang come forward, Xinyangjun's face changed slightly.

At this time, there was the neighing of war horses outside, and the voices of people were boiling, and a school official rode in, rolled down his horse when he got close, and knelt in front of Mrs. Yunshang, "General Wuwei Qinwang! But the armor is on his body, and he doesn't dare to enter the palace without permission! Lead three thousand iron horsemen to guard the palace gate, just waiting for Niangniang's order to capture the thief!"

Mrs. Yunshang bowed slightly, but looked at Xinyang Jun coldly, "Xinyang Gongzi, are you guilty?!"

Xinyang Gongzi's face changed drastically, "Wu Weihou, he was supposed to be stationed in the south, when did he return to Beijing? Why don't I know?!" Then he sneered and looked at Mrs. Yunshang, "Demon! It turns out that you have calculated it a long time ago today, and you just want to deceive me!"

Mrs. Yunshang's pretty face was like frost, and she said coldly: "Yes, today is to capture you, a chaotic minister and thief, why don't you get off your horse and be captured?!" )
