The imperial capital, the settlement of King Mutang of Liao.

Mu Tangzhi was awakened by the sound of small footsteps outside the door, followed by a soft knock on the door.

Mu Tangzhi sat up from the bed, his eyes were a little red, and he said with a little irritability: "Come in." ”

After the person who knocked lightly outside the room was allowed to push the door in, it was a woman with a good appearance, and said: "Your Highness, there is a guest visiting, and the slave and maid dare not make their own opinions, so they have to disturb Your Highness's rest. ”

Mu Tangzhi had a fork in his early years of cultivation, there was a hidden disease, he had to sleep every day, but his sleep was very shallow, he had to wake up at the slightest disturbance, and he was very angry when he got up, even after he set foot in the realm of immortals, it was still the case, so when His Royal Highness the King of Liao fell asleep, there was no one in Baizhang, and he didn't dare to disturb idle things.

After a long while, Mu Tangzhi suppressed his annoyance and asked coldly, "Where is that person now?"

The woman replied softly, "Right in front of the hall." ”

Mu Tangzhi hummed and ordered: "Please wait for a while, this king will come later." ”

The woman replied softly and slowly stepped back.

Another pretty maid walked into the house gently and began to serve her prince to change his clothes.

After a short time, Shi Shiran, who was dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes, came to the front of the main hall.

At this time, there was a beautiful woman sitting in the main hall, dressed in white and covered with black veil, with a refined appearance, which made people feel a little excited.

After Mu Tangzhi crossed the threshold, he said with a smile: "Who is my Dao, it turned out to be the famous Jade Guanyin, you are not in Jiangdu to sit for Murong Xuanyin, what are you doing in the imperial capital?"

Yu Guanyin got up and saluted Mu Tang's trip, and said softly: "I have seen His Royal Highness the King of Liao." ”

Mu Tangzhi smiled and pressed his hand down, motioning for her to take a seat, and then pulled a chair over his hand and sat opposite the woman.

Jade Guanyin said softly: "I came to see the prince on the order of the sect master. ”

Mu Tangzhi hummed and didn't speak.

Yu Guanyin continued: "Sect Master asked me to ask Your Highness, does Your Highness remember the original plan?"

Mu Tangzhi looked at the woman sitting opposite him, his eyes walked up and down unscrupulously, his eyes were playful, and he was interested, and he asked: "The appearance of the jade fairy flower and the moon really makes this king's heart a little moved." ”

The woman didn't speak, her face was expressionless, but her eyes suddenly turned cold.

Mu Tangzhi didn't care at all, and simply admired her figure openly, "If you have more, you will be fat, if you have less, you will be thin, if you are not fat, you will not be thin, it is just right, Murong Xuanyin is willing to give this king such a big gift?"

Hearing Mu Tangzhi's exaggerated and prodigal words, Yu Guanyin's face turned slightly pale, a look of hatred flashed in his eyes, and he subconsciously turned his head away.

Mu Tangzhi waved his hand, and the maids standing next to him understood and hurriedly retreated, not daring to disturb the prince's "good deeds".

After there were only two people left in the hall, Mu Tangzhi put his hands on his knees and said with a light smile: "But the heart is moving, this king will not take advantage of the danger of others like that." ”

Yu Guanyin's face improved slightly, and she was silent.

Mu Tangzhi continued: "This king is the only king with a different surname in the dynasty, not only under one person, above ten million people, but also hereditary replacement, Yongzhen Liaodong, you give this king a reason, why does this king plan the so-called big things with you rebellious ministers and thieves?"

Yu Guanyin said softly: "People have no immediate worries, there must be long-term concerns, and now it is not obvious, but in more than ten years, cutting the domain will inevitably be the trend of the times, even if the king of the Xiao family is surnamed Domain, it will be difficult to escape this catastrophe, not to mention His Royal Highness, the king with a different surname, I am afraid that he will bear the brunt of the fate, and it will be difficult to escape the fate of the ancestral foundation turning into ashes." ”

Mu Tang is noncommittal.

Yu Guanyin got up slowly, "Please also ask Your Highness to give a clear answer, so that you can make a difference." ”

Mu Tangzhi stretched out his hand and grabbed a piece of Yu Guanyin's sleeve, and gently pulled it, this great master of the Earth Immortal Realm did not do anything to resist, and sat in Mu Tangzhi's arms, the latter was warm and fragrant nephrite in his arms, but his face was still calm as usual, one hand went around Yu Guanyin's snow-white neck, held up her chin, and said with a smile: "It depends on what you mean." ”

Yu Guanyin seemed to accept his fate, lowered his head, and couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.

Mu Tangzhi hugged the beauty in his arms, rested his chin on her shoulder, and whispered in her ear: "This king's patience is limited. ”

Yu Guanyin was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, and said in a low voice: "This matter is a matter of life and death, is it too child's play for His Highness to tie it to a woman?"

Mu Tangzhi smiled lightly: "Child's play is not child's play, what you said doesn't count." ”

......

Inside the White Tiger Hall of the Dark Guard Mansion.

Fu Zhongtian's two palms that seemed to be carved from jade were lightly pressed on the sandalwood table in front of him, slowly caressing along the lines on the tabletop, and Chen Moling stood behind him and held his breath.

Fu Zhongtian couldn't remember how long he hadn't made a move, how long had these palms as white as a woman not been stained with blood.

This time he failed to make it to the Tianji list, not that he was much weaker than Zhao Qing, in the end, Zhao Qing still had an age advantage, if Zhao Qing was at his age, he would definitely not be his opponent.

Fu Zhongtian is known as the master of the Dark Guard Mansion, specializing in the affairs of monks, if he has no real skills, he will not be able to scare those lawless monks with the name of the Dark Guard Mansion alone.

Fu Zhongtian opened his mouth and asked, "How are things going?"

Chen Moling, who was standing behind him, replied respectfully: "The net has been cast, just wait for the fish to hit it by itself." ”

Fu Zhongtian withdrew his palm and smiled, "Don't be careless, this time they are all wild carp from the big river, fierce and arrogant, if you are not careful, the fish will die and the net will be broken, what are the movements of the other sects?"

Chen Moling said: "I'm still waiting, maybe it's the idea of fishing in troubled waters." ”

Fu Zhongtian just nodded.

Chen Moling wanted to speak and stopped.

Fu Zhongtian didn't reply: "Ask." ”

Chen Moling asked the doubts in his heart: "Master, is there really anyone who dares to act against the grain?"

Fu Zhongtian said with a smile: "There is nothing in this world that people dare not do. ”

......

In a luxurious attic in the depths of the imperial city, the purple smoke of the incense burner rose, Zao Wou-Ki lay on the soft couch, stretched out his palm, watched the smoke swirl around his palm, and took a light breath of the fragrance of the dragon's birthday, and his crystal like jade skin was lit up with a faint luster, which looked magical and weird.

Hearing someone knocking on the door, Zao Wouji's gaze still stayed on the purple smoke swirling in the room, and said lightly: "Come in." ”

Wei Wuji, dressed in casual clothes, walked into the attic and said softly, "Things have been arranged. ”

Zhao Wou-Ki sat up from the soft couch and said with a faint smile: "Youlao, Zhao has this matter in mind." ”

Wei Wuji said in a deep voice: "It's all for Your Majesty, you don't have to work hard." ”

Zhao Wou-Ki still smiled lightly, and said slowly: "After this incident, there should be a lot of vacant positions, most of us old guys are going to move positions, they should all be level, the military power is an official in the court, and the center has been released for a long time, you should know it in your heart, and you should plan early." ”

Wei Wuji thanked him and left.

After only one person remained, Zao Wou-Ki stared down at his palm, stunned.

After a while, he turned his palms over and muttered, "Turn your hands over for clouds and cover your hands for rain?"

Then he laughed to himself.

It's just pieces on the chessboard.
