Back then, there was a witty saying between Xiao Yu and Lan Yu, the monarch and the minister, that the monarch was just the owner, and the prime minister was the shopkeeper, and the court was a deal.

Fu Zhongtian knew that although Wanyan Beiyue was more inclined to the Great Qi court in terms of personal feelings, as the later ruler of the country, he could not act completely according to his own emotions.

Since you are waiting for the price to sell, then I will take the initiative to come to the door and talk about the price.

After Fu Zhongtian came to Tianhai City, he did not deliberately hide his identity, he chose a very large inn at random to settle down, occupied a separate table at the window on the second floor, and asked for a pot of wine and a pot of tea.

Fu Zhongtian poured himself a drink, looked at the people coming and going outside the window, and was not in a hurry to see the old man who was among the three saints on the Heavenly Machine List.

About half an hour later, the sound of horses' hooves sounded like thunder in the street outside the window, and the horses' hooves trampled heavily on the ground like an earthquake.

A few tables of guests near the window heard the sound and looked over, startled, it was a rare Tiefutu dispatch, that is the lord's guard army, has always been the first-class combat power in the many armies built later, the combat power can be called invincible, the Great Chu Dynasty in the Central Plains was destroyed under the iron hooves of the Iron Floating Tu, so the Iron Floating Slaughter has a invincible saying.

For a while, the streets were full of iron armor, and the cavalry seemed to have no end, looking at this posture was more than dozens of iron horses, there were hundreds of horses, and it didn't take long to occupy the entire main road.

After a while, two sedan chairs slowly walked under the escort of the iron horseman, and if the guess was correct, they should be masters in the Xuanjiao.

Today's pomp and circumstance is not insignificant, and anyone with a discerning eye can see the unusualness in it, is there still someone in the world who dares to make a mistake in Tianhai City? You must know that the lord of the country is now in Tianhai City, who does not know, the lord of the country is not only the first person to build later, but also looks at the whole world, and there are few opponents, who eats the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dares to be presumptuous in front of the lord of the country?

However, the diners also knew that this place had become a place of right and wrong, and they did not dare to stay any longer, so they fled downstairs one after another.

Only Fu Zhongtian was still sitting in his place, not moving.

The leader of the iron cavalry turned over and dismounted, came to the two sedan chairs, and said respectfully: "That person is on top of this restaurant." ”

The sedan chair man gently pressed the sedan chair, and out of the sedan chair came out of a graceful woman wearing a hat, the hat hung with white yarn, and the woman was also in white clothes and white shoes.

At the same time, a middle-aged man with a peaceful demeanor walked out of another sedan chair, dressed plainly but not shabby, revealing exquisite details everywhere, although the Central Plains Dynasty has always laughed at Hou Jian's lack of culture, let alone literary style and culture, but this middle-aged man who was born after the construction is full of bookishness, not inferior to the great Confucian celebrities from Jiangnan Haowang.

The middle-aged man led the woman in white to walk slowly into the inn, at this time the diners in the inn had already fled, and the entire restaurant was empty, and the two went straight to the second floor and came to Fu Zhongtian.

Fu Zhongtian raised his head, his gaze first swept over the body of the woman in white, and then fell on the middle-aged man.

Years of ups and downs in the sea allow him to confirm at first glance who is the real speaker.

The middle-aged man sat on the opposite side of Fu Zhongtian by himself, and said with a smile: "Master Fu, by the way, now that you are no longer from the Great Qi Imperial Court, then you should be called Fu Dazhenren, what are you doing when you come to our Houjian this time?"

Fu Zhongtian's face remained unchanged, and he said slowly: "I came this time on behalf of the real person in charge of the sect, and I want to ask to see the Lord of the Yan Kingdom. ”

The middle-aged man seemed to anticipate this and asked, "So in this case, Fu Dazhen is here to be a lobbyist?"

Fu Zhongtian didn't hide it too much, and nodded lightly.

The middle-aged man smiled: " The lord of the country he is an old man, has always been a person who misses the old love, it was the Emperor Taizu of the Great Qi who helped the lord of the country to quell the rebellion of the five kings, and the two countries formed a brotherly alliance, and then the eldest princess of Chongning of the Great Qi and the lord of the country became the good of Qin and Jin, that is, the queen of our later construction, so many years, the lord of the country and the queen Niang Qin Se are compatible, the relationship is excellent, I want to come to the lord will not do anything to make the queen Niangniang sad, so I want to advise Your Excellency, this lobbyist is not so easy to be, or retreat in the face of difficulties, so as not to hit the wall, touch your nose。 ”

Fu Zhongtian raised his head suddenly, and layers of ripples rippled from the wine glass in his hand, and gradually the ripples became bigger and bigger, turning into a small waterspout, spinning endlessly in the wine glass, as if it would rise from the glass at any time.

The middle-aged man was indifferent to this, his face was still light and breezy, and he said calmly: "The lobbyist is just a mouth, the key is to say, if you have to do everything, then there is no need to say it." It is precisely because you can't fight, or it's not easy to do it, so you want to be a lobbyist, if you want to demonstrate, then I don't think there is any need to go to see the lord of the country, he is an old man, I will arrange for the iron horse to send your excellency out of the country, if you want to use such means to test the bottom line below, you have to advise you in the next sentence, this move is meaningless, after all, you can't control the meaning of the lord, how to think about it, it doesn't matter what your intention is. ”

Fu Zhongtian's two fingers suddenly left the wine glass, and the vision of the dragon scroll hidden in the wine glass also disappeared.

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, not seeing how he moved, first a wine glass flew in front of him on its own, and then another wine jug followed, pouring him a glass of water and wine.

From beginning to end, he didn't make any moves, and in the eyes of ordinary people, he was no different from a real immortal.

Fu Zhongtian looked at this hidden Xuanjiao master, and asked indifferently, "Your Excellency shouldn't be an ordinary Xuanjiao person, right?"

The middle-aged man didn't hide it, and said calmly: "I am serving in the Xuanjiao, and now I am temporarily handling the secular affairs of the sect on behalf of the sect leader." ”

Fu Zhongtian suddenly had a bit of a sudden look, and said slowly: "After Murong Xuanyin took power, the Xuanjiao has been completely restructured, from the sect leader down, from the original five elders to two sects and twelve halls, respectively, two deputy sect masters and twelve hall masters, among the twelve hall masters, ten of them are women, and only two are men, but these two are both in their twilight years. As for the two deputy sect masters, one is Li Xu, one of the five elders of the previous generation, and the other is the personal disciple of Murong Xuanyin, the leader of the Xuanjiao Sect. ”
