Wan Qian saw it, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Yin and Evil Crystal?"

Qiongniang said: "Yes, Brother Wan, you will earn this big one, these two small ones, one for me and Ziping, how about it?"

In terms of size, the big Yin Evil Crystal is bigger than the two small Yin Evil Crystals combined, and in terms of texture, this big Yin Evil Crystal is more delicate and shiny, Wan Cheng smiled slightly, and said, "This is the birth of you." ”

Qiong Niang said: "If there is no big brother Wan, the two of us are afraid that we would have died under the evil ghosts a long time ago, this is what you deserve." After speaking, she handed the largest Yin Demon Crystal to Wan Ling, and gave the other one to Du Ziping.

Wan Yan took it, put it into the magic treasure bag, and with a wave of his backhand, a white light flashed, and immediately the white mist cracked a passage, and the three of them flew out along this passage. From here, there was not a single evil ghost here, and after a short time, the three of them left the place of trial.

At this time, Qiongniang emitted a crisp birdsong sound. , She took out a jade talisman from the magic treasure bag, probed it with her mana, her face changed slightly, and said to Wan Yan: "My father has something to call me back to the sect, Brother Wan, let's say goodbye." ”

She glanced at Du Ziping again and said, "Ziping, I hope you will marry as soon as possible, and I will come out to find you after I am done." ”

Du Ziping was quite reluctant, and remembered her marriage contract with Lei Hao, but this time it was Yun Zhong who asked her to return to the sect, but he couldn't, so he had to say: "Precious!"

He watched Qiong Niang fly away from afar, until Qianying disappeared, then he turned his head and said to Wan Yan: "Uncle Wan, the disciple is ready to hone the Dao Heart, so he will not go back to the sect with you." ”

Wan Qian said: "It's okay, you temper your Dao heart one day earlier, and your strength will be further after you get married." His eyes were sharp, and he had already seen that Du Ziping's Dao Heart tempering had a certain amount of heat, and if he didn't continue to refine his Dao Heart, he could also attain Dan by relying on penance alone. It's just that when Du Ziping arrives at this step, he has to know the mystery of heart tempering, how can he easily give up this opportunity to go further?

Wan Qian said again: "How do you plan to refine the Dao Heart?"

Du Ziping said: "The disciple doesn't know, he just wants to go wherever he wants." ”

Wan Qian said: "In this case, I will point you out, but it is not wrong." The so-called Dao heart tempering is to temper your original heart. Where do you want to go?"

He didn't have an idea of how to temper his Dao heart, but when he heard Wan Cheng say this, he pondered: Tempering my heart, is it possible for me to come from and where to go? He changed his mind again, Guan Zhongxian was an official in the court, and he had been away from home for a long time, so it was good to go back and see. So he said goodbye to Wan Cheng and went straight to the capital of the Jade Dragon Empire.

In the past few decades, the national strength of the Jade Dragon Empire has become more prosperous, and the Taixing Imperial Capital has become even more prosperous. But when Du Ziping came to the capital, he heard that today's saint actually drove the expedition in person. It turned out that Long Fei, the fierce general of the three northern provinces of the Jade Dragon Empire, colluded with the Dongqiang rebellion, and Du Zimo was angry and personally led the troops to conscript.

Du Ziping knew that the restaurant was the easiest place to inquire about all kinds of news, so he walked to a restaurant. The little second saw that he had an extraordinary bearing, and hurriedly led him upstairs.

Du Ziping picked a seat next to the window and sat down, ordered a few drinks and dishes casually, and looked at the restaurant on this floor. There are not many guests in the restaurant on this floor, and in addition to him, there are three tables.

One table is two businessmen-like people, talking about some business, the other table is two scholars, one white and one blue, talking about some Fengyue literature and history, and the other table is only one person, about forty years old, although wearing civilian clothes, Du Ziping can also see that this person is only afraid of being an official. However, it is not unusual for officials to wear civilian clothes on weekdays.

Du Ziping drank a few cups casually, but heard the topic of the two scholars turn to this royal expedition. The blue-clothed scholar said: "It has been more than half a year since the Holy Lord's personal expedition this time, and he must have already taken over the battle, how about the results of the battle?"

The white-clothed scholar said, "Brother Huang thinks the war is going on?"

The blue-clothed scholar said: "Although Long Fei colluded with the Eastern Qiang Kingdom, how can he be the opponent of our Jade Dragon Empire? Long Fei was captured or killed, it was only a matter of time. ”

The white-clothed scholar said: "I don't think so. ”

The blue-clothed scholar was stunned and said, "I would like to listen to Brother Wu's arguments." ”

The white-clothed scholar said: "Long Fei has lived in the north for a long time, and his subordinates have all the best soldiers and fierce generals, and the Eastern Qiang Kingdom has always been warlike, and our Jade Dragon Empire has been a long time, and Your Majesty does not know the soldiers, this personal expedition may not be able to take advantage." ”

The blue-clothed scholar said: "Brother Wu is worried. Although His Majesty does not know the soldiers, General Fan has experienced a hundred battles and is the first general of our dynasty, and this time he sent 700,000 troops. ”

The white-clothed scholar shook his head and said: "General Fan is both wise and brave, and he is indeed experienced, but Long Fei's military talent is not inferior to him, and His Majesty favors Li Xiang, and General Fan is at odds with Li Xiang, I am afraid that he will not be able to do his best, in short, I am not optimistic about this battle." ”

Du Ziping pretended not to know, but he heard it all, but he also found that the middle-aged man in his forties was also quietly paying attention to these two people. At this moment, a horse ran downstairs, and the knight on the horse shouted: "Urgent military situation, eight hundred miles urgent!"

Du Ziping looked at the knight, only to see that he was covered with dust, and he didn't know how many miles he had run. The middle-aged man in his forties in the restaurant saw it and shouted, "Shopkeeper, settle the bill." ”

Du Ziping's heart moved, could it be that the battle ahead had changed, so that this white-clothed scholar was right? It's just that he didn't worry about Du Zimo. Du Zimo is Wen Ruyu's parent, although he has not set foot in the immortal cultivation realm, but he also has a three-layer cultivation, even if the whole army is wiped out, it is not difficult to escape from a group of mortal troops.

He saw the middle-aged man go downstairs, settle the account, and go straight to the palace. He found a place where no one was, used a stealth method, and came to the palace.

Du Zimo drove the expedition in person, leaving his eldest son Du Yun to supervise the country. At this time, Du Yun was meeting with two ministers, one of whom was a middle-aged man in the restaurant, and the other was a thin old man in his fifties.

The thin old man said: "Your Highness, the big thing is not good, Your Majesty's personal campaign was defeated, General Fan was killed in battle, Li Xiang was captured, and Your Majesty also died." ”

Du Yun was taken aback and exclaimed, "What?"

The thin old man said: "The eight hundred miles of urgent military report just now is what I said. ”

When Du Yun heard this, his face turned pale, and he collapsed on the chair all of a sudden.

The thin old man continued: "The enemy army is heading towards the capital, and it is estimated that it will take less than twenty days for the army to come to the city. ”

Du Yun came to his senses at this time and said, "What should I do then?" Although he is a prisoner, he has never encountered a major event, and now when he hears the news, he can't even come up with half an idea.

The middle-aged man in the restaurant said: "Don't spread this in advance, gather hundreds of officials tomorrow and come to discuss." Now His Highness quickly issued an order to transfer troops into the capital. ”

Du Yun said: "Just do as you say." ”

The middle-aged man saluted and walked out. The thin old man said to Du Yun again: "Your Highness, I have a word, I don't know whether to say it or not. ”

Du Yun said: "When is this, you don't want to say it quickly." When he saw the thin old man looking around, he understood in his heart, and ordered him to retreat first.

The thin old man said: "Your Highness, when the emperor was here, he thought he was in the prime of life, although he asked you to supervise the country, but he never made you the crown prince. ”

It turned out that Du Zimo also had mana in his body, and he thought that it would not be a problem to live for another thirty years, so he did not set up a prince, so in this way, in the current situation of the great enemy, who the emperor belongs to is really crucial.

Du Yun pondered for a long time and said: "Although I am the eldest son, the queen mother loves the fifth brother more, and once asked my father to make the fifth brother the prince, but I am afraid that tomorrow will make waves." There is also a fourth brother, although he is not a son-in-law, but he has made friends with ministers, and he is quite powerful, and he should not be underestimated. ”

The thin old man whispered, "Your Highness, I don't think it is better to send someone to arrest the Fourth Highness and the Fifth Highness now, and then ......," he said while making a head-killing motion, "and there will be no one to fight with you." ”

When Du Ziping heard this, he frowned, in the current situation of the great enemy's pressure, if Du Yun kills the royal family again, he is afraid that if he does not wait for the enemy to attack, there will be chaos here. This Du Yun looks young and unwise, but he is afraid that Li Lingzhi will be in a daze, and after listening to this person's words, this Jade Dragon Empire will be in danger.

Although he no longer cares about this throne, and his feelings for Du Zimo are quite weak, this Jade Dragon Empire is the foundation created by his ancestors, and he is unwilling to destroy it like this.

Du Yun paced a few steps and said categorically: "No!"

The thin old man was stunned for a moment, and persuaded: "Your Highness, you are not a gentleman if you are small, you are not a husband if you are not poisonous, this matter is very important, you can't have the kindness of a woman." ”

Du Yun said: "My Jade Dragon Empire has always been the succession of my son-in-law, and my chances of winning tomorrow are still the highest, and this dynasty rules the world with benevolence and filial piety. And our fellow brothers, I can't bear to move the sword soldiers"

Du Ziping said secretly: "This Du Yun can be a prisoner, after all, he is not a straw bag, and he can distinguish between right and wrong, and he is not such a cold-blooded and ruthless person." ”

The thin old man was unwilling and said, "Your Highness, you are not afraid of 10,000, just in case." If the Fourth or Fifth Highness succeeded to the throne, they would not be as kind as you. ”

Du Yun said: "I killed them, tomorrow, the ministers are afraid that they will oppose me even more, and the father and emperor are not only our brothers' three sons, which one will not be established at that time?"

The thin old man said, "Then it's better to arrest them." ”

Du Yun said: "What kind of crime is it to arrest them? This is worse than killing them." ”

The thin old man persuaded a few more words, but Du Yun just shook his head and refused.

At this time, Du Ziping found that two of the people who served Du Yun quietly walked out. As soon as his heart moved, he cast a spell and secretly checked to himself.

I saw that the two of them went out separately, each found a no-man's land, and one called a eunuch, handed over a note, and gave two more orders, and hurried back to the palace.
