Shi Tianci secretly complained, although before he left Tianshuimen, he had already sent the sword to Elder Daofeng, but he didn't expect Bai Zhichuan to detain Xi Yulan in advance.

Elder Ling Tai said, "By the way, there is another troublesome matter, you know that the monarch of the Jiangxia Kingdom and our Xuanyun Sect have always had a tradition of marriage. This time, the monarch took a fancy to Zou Ruoshui. ”

Shi Tianci was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "When did this happen?

Elder Ling Tai said: "It was yesterday, when the monarch sent someone to Xuanyun Gate to choose a concubine, I didn't know that Ruoshui and you had a marriage contract, and the most important thing is that Ruoshui didn't mention it. It was only after the king's people chose her that she told me, and as a result, it became the embarrassing situation I am in. If you regret it now, the monarch will not look good, if you agree, if you still refuse, this is really a dilemma. ”

Shi Tianci frowned and said, "Is there no other way?"

Elder Ling Tai said, "You should go and discuss this matter with Ruoshui to see if there is any way to do both." Otherwise, once you get into a stalemate with the royal family, it will not be good. ”

Shi Tianci nodded and hurried to find Zou Ruoshui. Although such a big thing happened, Zou Ruoshui didn't pay attention to it, and was quietly stroking the piano alone. When he saw Shi Tianci, he stopped and asked, "Do you know the truth?"

Shi Tianci nodded and said, "How is this?"

Zou Ruoshui sighed and said: "The palace sent someone to choose a concubine, I didn't take it seriously at all, thinking that it had nothing to do with me, but I didn't know that they would take a fancy to me." You don't have to worry, I will never marry the king. If it really doesn't work, you and I can escape. ”

Shi Tianci couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, he had just escaped from Tianshui Country, and he still had to flee when he arrived in Jiangxia Kingdom, this kind of outlaw life didn't matter to him, but how could Zou Ruoshui suffer with him?

He said, "Ruoshui, don't worry, I will definitely find a way." ”

They were discussing countermeasures, and a little monk came in and said, "Senior Sister Ruoshui, there is a person named Liu Yuankai outside who said that he was looking for you, can you see you?"

Zou Ruoshui had never heard of this person at all, and was about to refuse, but Shi Tianci hurriedly said, "He's here to find me, let him come in." ”

After Liu Yuankai came in, he looked at Zou Ruoshui and didn't speak. Shi Tianci said: "If you have something to say, she is not an outsider. ”

Only then did Liu Yuankai speak: "You should know about the affairs of Tianshui Kingdom, Bai Zhichuan detained Miss Xi Yulan and used this as a threat to let us continue to supply tobacco." The exiled tribes are now in chaos, some agree to supply tobacco, and some want to send troops to fight and regain the medicine king. I'm here this time to ask you for an idea, whether it's to fight or make peace, it's all up to you. ”

Shi Tianci said curiously: "When did you become so concerned about Miss Xi Yulan's matter? You actually ran to Xuanyun Gate to find me in person, didn't you fall in love with someone, right?"

Liu Yuankai scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I don't know if people have taken a fancy to me." ”

Shi Tianci smiled and asked, "If you fight, are you sure?"

Liu Yuankai said with a straight face: "With the current national strength of Tianshui Country, as soon as the army we trained in the Displaced People Tribe arrives, they will not be able to stop it at all!"

Shi Tianci nodded and praised: "Okay, it's good to have this confidence." However, now is not the time to use the strong, Miss Xi Yulan is in their hands, even if we start fighting, it will be difficult for us to get it. Don't worry, I have my own way to let Miss Xi Yulan get out safe and sound. Now you go back and tell the displaced tribes that you can continue to supply tobacco, and the price is still the same. ”

Liu Yuankai asked, "Then Miss Xi Yulan won't be in danger, right?"

Shi Tianci said with a smile: "If you talk about marching and fighting, you are first-class, if you talk about intrigue, you are still almost, you are called caring and chaotic." King Hercules instructed Bai Zhichuan to detain people, not for tobacco, if something happened to Miss Xi Yulan, how would they get tobacco? You better go back, wait for my good news. ”

After listening to Shi Tianci's words, Liu Yuankai left happily.

Shi Tianci turned his head to Zou Ruoshui and said, "The matter of choosing a concubine, you are afraid that you will have to endure a little hardship to pass the test." ”

Zou Ruoshui said lightly: "As long as you don't have to marry the monarch, I don't care." ”

Shi Tianci nodded and said, "That's easy to do." ”

Two days later, it happened to be the day of the marriage, and the monarch and Zou Ruoshui wanted to meet. Xuanyun Gate dressed up Zou Ruoshui well and sent someone to the palace, and Shi Tianci was naturally mixed in the team that entered the palace. The palace is lit up to welcome the newlyweds.

The monarch of Jiangxia Kingdom is called Feng Zhizhang, and he is about the same age as Shi Tianci. He already has a queen, and this time he is going to marry the imperial concubine. After Zou Ruoshui entered the palace, he was not happy, his face was like frost, and he looked like he was rejecting people thousands of miles away. Feng Zhizhang didn't care, and beckoned the people from Xuanyun Gate to enter the table, and everyone drank and talked happily.

After the banquet, Feng Zhizhang invited Zou Ruoshui into the side hall, which was a time for the two to understand each other and enhance their feelings with each other. Feng Zhizhang saw that Zou Ruoshui was still cold, so he took the initiative to speak: "Miss Zou, Gui Geng this year?"

In fact, the person who went to choose a concubine had already reported Zou Ruoshui's situation clearly, he was just looking for a conversation. Zou Ruoshui looked at Feng Zhizhang coldly, and suddenly her expression changed, only to see that her face instantly became gloomy and dark, and her two eyes also became hollow and deep, she was simply full of yin energy, and her face was ghostly, which was very terrifying.

Feng Zhizhang was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Miss Zou, what's wrong with you?"

Zou Ruoshui smiled grimly in a man's voice: "Aren't you going to marry her? What are you afraid of? Hahaha...... If you want to marry her, you have to ask me if I agree!"

Feng Zhizhang was so frightened that he stammered and asked, "...... you You...... ...... the hell Who is it?"

The man's voice replied, "Of course I'm a ghost!"

Only then did Feng Zhizhang realize that Zou Ruoshui had been possessed by an evil ghost! He was so frightened that he turned his head and ran, and escaped from the side hall as if flying. Shi Tianci, who had been waiting outside for a long time, hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the monarch?"

Feng Zhizhang saw that it was a monk from Xuanyun Sect, and hurriedly said, "Oh no, your Zou Ruoshui girl is possessed by a ghost!"

Shi Tianci heard this, and hurriedly said: "This is not easy to do, people who are possessed by ghosts, even if the ghosts are driven away, I am afraid that the soul will be violated, and Miss Zou may not be able to be your imperial concubine." ”

Feng Zhizhang said: "That...... Let's change someone, this one just scares me to death. ”

Shi Tianci was overjoyed, went in and took Zou Ruoshui out, and returned home with the people of Xuanyun Gate. As soon as they were halfway there, a person from the palace stopped them and asked, "May I ask which one is Shi Tianci?"

Shi Tianci was stunned for a moment, his time in Xuanyun Gate was still short, and few people in Xuanyun Gate knew him, how could people in Jiangxia Palace know about him? He replied, "I am." ”

The man said, "The king wants to see you, but I wonder if you can move away?"

Shi Tianci was confused, so he had to let everyone go back with Zou Ruoshui first. Zou Ruoshui's possession by a ghost is simply fake, she put the resentful soul into her body by herself and let him temporarily control her body, so it is no big deal.

Shi Tianci returned to the palace, and Feng Zhizhang ordered someone to invite him into the side hall. After Shi Tianci gave the salute, he asked, "I don't know what the Dao Monarch has to command?"

Feng Zhizhang looked at Shi Tianci and said, "Okay, you Shi Tianci, you really live up to your reputation, you actually came up with the idea of possessing a demon to let me take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, smart, really smart!"

Shi Tianci was stunned for a moment, and asked cautiously: "I didn't understand what the monarch meant. ”

Feng Zhizhang smiled and said, "I've heard of you a long time ago, you did internal response with Zhang Jiayin in Tianshui Kingdom, and successfully stole the Xuantong Dao Technique. In order to put Su Jingshan, a puppet, on the throne, he also helped him engage in tobacco monopoly and high heels. At the same time, you also helped him train private troops and start a monks' guild, am I right?"

Shi Tianci's heart sank, and he hurriedly said: "The monarch is wise, and he is so clear about my affairs. ”

Feng Zhizhang said: "I also heard that you killed Su Jingfeng, and as a result, your identity was exposed, so you had to return to Xuanyun Gate, right?"

Shi Tianci nodded and said, "That's right. ”

Feng Zhizhang said: "Jiang Xiaguo now has a big problem that makes me restless. In order to solve this problem, we monarchs and ministers have really racked their brains. In the end, I couldn't think of a way. I heard that after you had an accident in Tianshui Kingdom, you immediately sent someone to Xuanyun Gate to choose a concubine, although Miss Zou Ruoshui didn't show up at all, but I still let people choose her. ”

Shi Tianci was stunned for a moment, it turned out that all this was planned by He Zhizhang! He thought for a moment and asked, "What does the monarch mean is that you have spent so much effort to actually want me to help me come up with advice?"

He Zhizhang said: "That's right, but I want to see if you are really as brave and resourceful as the legend." As a result, this trial, not to mention, really opened my eyes. It's just that you got this demon possessed, and it really scared me. By the way, Miss Zou will be fine, right?"

Shi Tianci smiled bitterly: "It's okay." ”

He Zhizhang said: "It's good if there is nothing wrong. Anyway, you robbed me of a beautiful imperial concubine, how should this account be calculated?"

Shi Tianci said helplessly: "Isn't the monarch playing tricks on me? Obviously, the monarch has long known that I have a marriage contract with Zou Ruoshui, but he came to intervene and force me to make a fool of myself, and then came to blackmail me. ”

He Zhizhang smiled and said, "How dare I blackmail you? I'm begging you." Let's go straight, that's the case, our Jiangxia Kingdom and Tianshui Country have been fighting all year round, the national strength is weak, the treasury is empty, and now we can't even take out the money for disaster relief. I'm asking you to come mainly to think of a way to help me earn some silver. ”

When Shi Tianci heard this, his heart suddenly relaxed, nothing else is bad, if you want to make money, he is the best. He thought about it and already had an idea, but he said as a difficulty: "I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult." ”

He Zhizhang was so smart that he hurriedly said, "If you can help me solve this important matter, I am willing to give you a magic weapon, what do you think?"
