"Sister Bai Tong, you have eaten so many things, why do you never see you go to the toilet?" Ji Nan tilted his head to look at the silver corpse, his big black eyes were full of curiosity, but the question he asked almost choked Bai Ya. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When Bai Tong was originally a bronze corpse, his body was actually a dead thing, relying on the heart core and essence and blood activities in his body. But when it was promoted to the silver corpse, it was equivalent to returning from yin to yang, and the soul was completed with the laws of heaven and earth, and it changed from a moving zombie to a different creature.

Since it is a living being, the body is naturally no longer a dead thing, but it is not yet a completely living thing. Although you can eat, your stomach and intestines will not digest it, and what you eat depends on fire poison to dissolve and absorb the vitality in it, and the remaining residue is discharged from the pores, so you don't need to go to the toilet at all.

Of course, it doesn't matter if the silver corpse doesn't eat, it can survive by absorbing the light of the sun and the moon, and it will continue to evolve over time.

Bai Tong's spiritual wisdom has not been opened for a long time, and he is really not necessarily older than Ji Nan in terms of age, but he is still quite happy to be called a sister, and a stiff smile appears on his face.

"No, I don't know!" she lowered her voice and replied, after turning into a silver corpse, her vocal cords recovered, but her voice was hoarse like a owl, except for facing Bai Ya and Ji Nan, she rarely spoke.

"Aggressive~~" Just as Bai Ya finished drinking this cup of tea, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

"Excuse me...... Your Excellency is a white boy from Qingcheng?"

Ji Nan brought in a man and a woman from outside the door, and the woman was the maid who had served Bai Ya and the others for the past two days. The man was a teenager, wearing palace clothes, with a white face and a sharp voice, and he was actually a little eunuch.

"It's in Xiazhi!" Bai Ya felt strange in his heart, he had been in the palace for almost two days, and he had never seen a eunuch in the palace.

"The king is having a banquet tonight, and he also invites the prince to the banquet!" the little eunuch bowed his head respectfully and handed over an invitation.

"Wait!" Bai Ya opened the invitation, and when he saw the payment, he was slightly startled, and hurriedly called out to the little eunuch who turned around to leave.

He took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into the little eunuch's hand, and asked solemnly, "This ...... Father-in-law, what are you talking about as a king......"

"Naturally, it's the king!" the little eunuch showed a shy smile, arched his hands upward, and said softly, "There are many guests in the imperial garden at night, so don't be too late to go." ”

"The king?!Is the King of Shu sober?" Bai Ya was stunned, and his mind was suddenly full of thoughts.

It had been three days since he came to King Rong's mansion, but for some reason the sixth prince had not seen him. However, in the past two days, the house has been bustling, and many warriors have come, and it has become more and more lively.

Baiya gets up in the morning to practice, and can often hear the sound of martial arts practice in the distance, and sometimes there is the sound of fighting, presumably the martial artists in the mansion are fighting.

Fortunately, their residence was a separate courtyard, and there were guards standing guard outside, and no one came to disturb them. Baiya also restrained Ji Nan and didn't let him go out to see the excitement, and it was clear and quiet for three days.

But now that the sixth prince hasn't seen it yet, he actually received an invitation from the king of Shu first, which is really strange.

"Could it be that the condition of King Shu has improved?" Bai Ya thought about it, but he couldn't understand it, so he simply didn't think about it anymore, he believed that there should be an answer at today's dinner.

Just when Bai Ya received the invitation from the palace, there was also an old eunuch standing in front of Rongwang Meng Min in the inner hall of the palace.

"Father is awake?" Meng Min looked at the old eunuch in the hall with an indifferent expression, unlike the little eunuch who sent the invitation to Baiya, this old eunuch with white hair was one of the directors of the inner court.

Compared with the huge eunuch institutions in the feudal era, the inner court of today's dynasty has been greatly streamlined, unlike the inner court of the feudal dynasty, which has "twenty-four yamen".

In particular, the celebrant who is known as the "inner minister" has now become a pure ceremonial department. And the secret service agencies controlled by the eunuchs have long been abandoned, or merged into the secret agent department of the national judiciary.

As for the concubines of the kings of the world, there are no more than 3,000 harem beauties, and they are generally a queen and a few concubines, most of which will not exceed a single digit.

In fact, this is the inevitable change of the times!

The human race is no longer the only master of Shenzhou, and the country is no longer the private weapon of an individual or a certain royal family. Under the supervision and elimination of the Xianwu Sect, there has long been no emperor who satisfies his selfish desires with national wealth.

"Yes, please enter the palace as soon as possible!" The old eunuch looked calm, bowed, and retreated out of the palace.

"Your Highness......" Mr. Wen inquired and looked at Meng Min.

"In the lonely dream, he is just an idle king who has migrated, and he is not clear about the process of his father's death...... After that man ascended the throne, I waited for me to come to Chengdu to offer condolences. Meng Min seemed to know what Mr. Wen was going to ask, hesitated for a moment, and then replied softly.

"So the lord doesn't know if the king's condition has changed, only the king's general ......," Mr. Wen's eyes flashed.

"Hmm...... It seems that it is easy to think alone!" Meng Min frowned, he suddenly understood what his husband was going to say.

His dream only showed the time of the death of the king of Shu, but he did not have a specific experience. In this way, the king of Shu may not really die of illness, and he may have been murdered by a few brothers who are competing for succession.

"Or the minister thinks too much, there are so many guards around the king, and there are masters of the dragon protection clan, how can he go on a business trip easily, just go tonight!" Mr. Wen smiled faintly and said softly, "It's just that the lord should also be prepared in this regard, so as not to be caught off guard by others." ”

......

Bai Ya estimated that the time was almost up, so he took Ji Nan out. Because he was going to the Shu Palace, he could only leave the silver corpse and the little bastard Tianpeng behind.

However, as soon as he left the courtyard gate, he sensed something, looked up at the corridor in the distance, and happened to see a slightly hunched old eunuch walking by with his back hand. As if sensing his gaze, the old eunuch suddenly raised his head and smiled slightly at him.

Bai Ya's eyes flashed, and he clasped his fists at the old eunuch in salute.

"Senior brother, do you know him?" Ji Nan looked at him strangely.

"I don't know! However, it is not strange that there are many people who are older than us, and their cultivation is higher than ours, so of course they should be respected. Bai Ya slapped the young man on the head and smiled at him.

"Ah, don't fight, my mother said that you will always hit the head stupidly. Ji Nan touched the back of his head dissatisfiedly and asked suspiciously, "That old ...... People, is your cultivation very high?"

"It should be an innate martial artist!" Bai Ya looked at the old eunuch who was far away and replied lightly.

His Five Qi Pulse Technique is becoming more and more exquisite, and he has a strong sense of breath, which is also the place where this secret tradition is stronger than the two secret traditions that Ji Nan has learned.

"Innate Martial Artist?" Ji Nan's eyes widened and he asked incredulously, "Isn't it that you can't be an official after being congenital?"

"A eunuch is not an official!" Bai Ya chuckled and explained, "The royal family has accumulated for thousands of years, and there are so-called dragon protectors around them, among which there are many masters, so naturally there will be no shortage of innate masters. ”

"Are they here to protect the king?" Ki Nan was curious.

"Not necessarily, the Dragonguards were not just created to protect a particular king, but to protect the entire royal bloodline. If the current monarch is mediocre and needs to change the dynasty, then the rest of the dragon guardian clan will change their allegiance, except for some of the dead soldiers. Bai Ya said slowly.

"That'...... When he came to the palace, did he want to take refuge in King Rong?" Ji Nan rolled his eyes and said with a smile.

"Hehe, the innate martial artist will not intervene in the matter of the succession, he is afraid that he came with the little eunuch just now, and he should just invite King Rong into the palace for a banquet. Bai Ya thought for a moment and continued, "Of course, it is not possible to pass on the credit of the innate martial artist, and it is estimated that this person who came to King Rong's Mansion also has the intention of warning King Rong...... It seems that the condition of the king has really improved!"

"Ah, it's so complicated!" Ji Nan was young and a little ignorant about interpersonal relationships, but as soon as Bai Ya explained, he immediately understood.

"Two sons, the carriage has been prepared in the palace, but do you want to go to the palace now?" Before the two left the palace, someone followed.

"No, let's go by ourselves!" Bai Ya smiled and waved his hand, refused the carriage of King Rong's Mansion, and walked straight towards the gate with Ji Nan.

"Senior brother, why do you have to call a car yourself?" Ji Nan was puzzled and asked back suspiciously.

"If the King of Shu's condition improves, then we can't intervene in the matter of fighting for the heir, and we have to keep our distance from the Rongwang Mansion, so it's best not to take their carriage to the banquet. Bai Ya explained seriously, "Today's King of Shu is still quite virtuous, only if he really can't be a director, the Xianwu Sect can participate in the kings' competition, otherwise he will become a chaotic minister and thief!"

"Then aren't we going back to the mountain? This has just come out!" Ji Nan made a bitter face.

"Let's go to the imperial banquet in the evening and see it again!" Bai Ya shook his head slightly, just now it was just his guess.

If the King of Shu hadn't been really critically ill before, how could the princes of Shu set off a struggle for succession, how could a patient who was dying so easily get better, and the current situation does look a little weird.

The main gate of the Shu Palace is located in the innermost ring of Chengdu, and a series of palaces stretch westward along the central axis, all the way through the West City Gate. Standing outside the palace wall, you can vaguely see the pavilions and pavilions inside, which are resplendent and brilliant, which is not inferior to the Forbidden City that Baiya has seen in his previous life.

The westernmost part of the palace is connected to a large garden and meadow, which is the royal family's annex, with a royal garden and hunting grounds.

On the invitation card received by Bai Ya, the location of the imperial banquet marked is here.

The soldiers guarding the palace gate checked the invitation cards and Qingcheng identity cards of the two, and directly let them into the palace.

"They didn't take away the artifact...... Aren't you afraid that we will assassinate the King of Shu?" Ji Nan leaned closer and whispered.

"Hehe, do you think that if you enter the palace, you will definitely be able to get close to the King of Shu?" Bai Ya asked funny.

"The King of Shu not only invited us, but it is estimated that people from other Xianwu Sects also came. Our banquet must be outdoors, and the King of Shu will stand on the high pavilion at most and show himself from afar, but he will not greet everyone one by one. ”

ps: Just recovered, miserable!
