one step closer to the end

Zhao Guanren took the copper box and went up, the princess and the sisters didn't care about it, he went into the main room and opened all three boxes, the first one contained millions of taels of silver notes, the second was the list of key members of the cult , and the third is the list of brainwashed dignitaries.

"King Yujiang! You are a dead chicken thief, you almost cheated me..."

Zhao Guanren flipped through the directory and shook his head again and again. King Yujiang was actually an altar master, his youngest son was a hall master, and there were many relatives and friends of high-ranking officials who all joined the Shooting Sun Sect, but those who were brainwashed were all female relatives. Or domestic servants.

"You whore, why did you want to kill my son..."

The concubine's younger sister suddenly rushed out and cursed. It turned out that the demon slayer had brought in some women. She grabbed the princess and beat and scolded her. The demon slayers quickly separated the two and brought the princess to Zhao Guanren. Kneeling down, the little girl burst into tears in fright.

"My lord! We are searching for Duke Chu, he should still be in the city..."

A captain stepped aside, and Zhao Guanren squatted in front of the princess, held up her pear-blossoming pretty face with one hand, and asked, "Answer my three questions, and if you answer correctly, forget the blame. Where, second, where are the other warehouses, and third, who is King Youfa?"

"My lord! My son is still young, she must have hurt her..."

The concubine's younger sister ran over crying, but Zhao Guanren's mouth fell to the ground. Concubine Yujiang hurriedly dragged her aside, hugged her and told her to stop talking, and when Zhao Guanren pulled out the knife suddenly, she heard One loud fart.

"Nimma! Tell me quickly..."

Zhao Guanren covered his nose and jumped back. Princess Chu County was estimated to be only eighteen or nineteen years old. When he was scared, not only her skirt was wet, but the back of her buttocks was also yellow, and even shit came out.

"Don't kill me, I said..."

Princess Chu cried and said: "The king of the county went out early in the morning, and he may be hiding in the Miji bank. The bank is the second warehouse. I just listened to my father-in-law's guess about King Youfa. It may be someone close to the king of Tubo, and Baili The family has an envoy, second only to the Dharma king!"

"Good guy! You know a lot, you slept with Tianyangzi..."

Zhao Guanren looked at her in astonishment, but how did the little lady choke up and said, "My family is not a religious believer, but father-in-law will let my family stay in bed occasionally, and ask my family to guard the money here for him. When he drinks too much, he will say something. All the servants have heard about it!"

"What are you talking about? You are serving my prince's bed, whose child you gave birth to..."

Princess Yujiang's eyes widened suddenly, and the girls wiped their tears again and said, "Father! The county king can't have children, and the two children of the slave family are both father-in-law's. The father said that if he becomes the emperor, the king of the county will be the prince. The king... just let me give birth to my father-in-law!"

"No wonder the eldest son didn't participate. It turns out that you were the one who played a role..."

Zhao Guanren got up and patted her on the head, just as a demon master came out again, handed over an old book, and said, "My lord! This is a secret book I found in the secret compartment of the study, but the exercises I practiced are good. Strange, what is it called... Soul Refining Technique!"

"I'll go! Soul Fire..."

Chapter 1303 Unstoppable

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

Hundreds of civil and military officials knelt down in the main hall, and it would be New Year's Eve in three days. The paralyzed old emperor was lying on the dragon chair, and there were not a few black strands in his white hair. Sit under the left hand, with a beaded curtain in front of you.

"Everyone loves to be flat!"

The old emperor raised his hands expressionlessly, looking at the completely unfamiliar faces, he couldn't help but shed two lines of blood and tears in his heart. Except for some immobile veterans, all the civil and military officials had been changed. His confidantes and generals have also become dukes or princes.

"Boss Zhang! The emperor has not recovered yet, you can declare the decree for the emperor..."

The empress straightened her body radiantly. People in their 50s didn't know how to take care of it. She looked like a middle-aged woman in her forties. She even smiled at Zhao Guanren, as if to say... Look!This is my mother's confidant.

'Laugh at your sister!I'll make you cry later...'

Zhao Guanren lowered his head and ignored her at all, while eunuch Zhang came out with an imperial decree, officially announcing that the old emperor had become the Supreme Emperor, and abdicated the emperor as the 15-year-old King of Chu, but the civil and military officials were not surprised, after all, there was only one queen left. My son.

"My dear friends! I will help you a lot in the future..."

The little emperor walked out of the side hall with a smile on his face. The 15-year-old boy was still childish, and his face was trying to suppress it, but he was very arrogant. But the ministers could only kneel down and shouted long live, but the Han family was very excited, because the queen They are members of the Han family of the Third Taibao.

"Come here! Help the Empress Dowager go back to the palace to recuperate, don't tire my father..."

The little emperor waved his hand carelessly, as if he was in charge, but a general stood up and said with a sneer: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty looks good, and besides, His Majesty's edict has not been finished yet, so don't be too impatient! "

"you……"

The little emperor subconsciously looked to the side, and the empress who had just been promoted to empress dowager also changed her face, and then several people stood up, and the old emperor also sneered and said: "My son! You are impatient, how do you deal with the government affairs?" , bring a chair for my son, and let him sit and listen to the order!"

"Yes!"

Manager Zhang waved without hesitation, and a small dragon chair was lifted out and placed on the lower right side of the high platform. The little emperor suddenly looked at his grandfather unhappily. His grandfather frowned and shook his head. Only then did the emperor sit down with a sullen face.

"Yunxuan! Bring me a bowl of tea..."

The old emperor finally smiled and beckoned, Zhao Guanren immediately took a bowl of tea, and stepped up to the dragon platform to straighten him upright, now the truth finally came to light, it turned out that Zhao Guanren did not kill them all, and let the old emperor control part of his power .

"Humph~"

The Empress Dowager gritted her teeth and snorted coldly. She knew that she had been prostituted for nothing, and she had also hooked up with her sister and niece. Mother and son have to keep their tails between their legs.

"Director Zhang! Continue reading my will..."

The old emperor laughed radiantly. Director Zhang continued to read the will aloud, and appointed four auxiliary ministers. Except for the two veterans of the two dynasties, the rest were Zhao Guanren and Chen Guangda. Military power was also redistributed.

"Wait!"

The little emperor raised his hand abruptly, turned around and said: "The Supreme Emperor! You let Li Zhiping alone control an army of 15 people, and they are all elite troops near Shendu. Even the defense of Shendu is given to outsiders, so you are not afraid of him." Are the two rebelling?"

"Silly boy! If I wanted to rebel, you wouldn't be sitting here..."

Zhao Guanren walked back to the queue slowly, the little emperor immediately raised his eyebrows in anger, but his old mother said with a smile: "Your Majesty! Yun Xuan's words are a bitter medicine, you have to listen and learn more, Yun Xuan! You also You have to help the emperor well, he is still young!"

"That's natural! But for now, the emperor only needs to talk less and listen more..."

Zhao Guanren nodded solemnly, the little emperor folded his arms and turned his head away, all civil and military officials also heaved a sigh of relief, the division of the cake had been discussed a long time ago, and it was not up to the little emperor to intervene, but he really wanted to Jumping out and pointing fingers, it will definitely not end well if you get stiff.

"The Supreme Emperor! The Yang family handed over the pleading sheet, and Yang Pingchuan's elder brother is on his way..."

An acting minister stood up and said that the business was serious. The Yang family endured the pain and gave up many benefits, and tried their best to compensate the four major families of the upper five families. Cui Ma's family took the most benefits and became the head of the five families in one fell swoop. Come out and be a peacemaker.

"The Yang family is a chicken thief, burning toilet paper at the grave - fooling the ghost..."

Zhao Guanren came out to refute at the right time, and everyone discussed excitedly. They were satisfied only after stabbing the Yang family with a hemorrhage. He also deliberately ignored his 15 army. After all, he had to stand in front of many things. rebel.

"Sir, please retire!"

Everyone bowed happily and left. Zhao Guanren's skill in "making glutinous rice balls" is first-class, which is much more enjoyable than when the old emperor took power alone. The Taibao family expressed their full support and played the game of Tang Dynasty together. who to kill.

"Yunxuan! You can accompany me to the harem to relax..."

The old emperor was carried onto a wooden wheelchair, which Zhao Guanren asked a craftsman to make for him. Two wooden poles were plugged in to form a small sedan chair. The old emperor called a few confidants and went to the harem with Zhao Guanren. The Empress Dowager also went to the East Palace with her natal family.

"My son-in-law! I heard that you stole a lot of money the day before yesterday, so give some to our Tiger Army..."

A general grinned, and the six of them walked into the harem together. The old emperor's wheelchair was also put down. Zhao Guanren went up to push it with his own hands, and said with a smile, "It's really quite a lot, more than 300 million taels. How much do you want?"

"Mother! There are so many, the cult is too fat..."

The five officials stared wide-eyed, but Zhao Guanren laughed again: "It's easy to want money, you pick one of the Yang family and Tubo, and I'll give you as much as you want, how about it?"

"Yunxuan!"

The old emperor was puzzled and said: "I'm afraid it's inappropriate to move the Yang family right now. They just handed over the letter of indemnity, and Jiannan Road is still waiting for them to rush to help!"

"Your Majesty! Pleading guilty is just a tactic to slow down the army. If the Yang family really does what they promised, their family will never recover from a slump and will be slaughtered..."

Zhao Guanren sneered and said: "Do you think the Yang family will sit and wait for death? King Ning and King Yan went to the south of the Yangtze River. That is the headquarters of the Baili family. The Baili family is also a member of the cult. Their intentions are already very obvious. The two kings of Ning and Yan are about to rebel. Yang The family and the Baili family will definitely help each other!"

"Sigh~ these two scoundrels will add to the chaos..."

The old emperor patted the wheelchair helplessly, and said: "But we don't have enough troops, we are too short-paid, and our combat power is unsightly!"

"Have you forgotten Longyou Zhao Qingtian? His actual strength is around 16. These are all elite soldiers..."

Zhao Guanren said: "It only takes 6 people to guard Longyou, and he has [-] troops to mobilize. It's just because you are always worried about their rebellion, so you never dare to let them cross the border, but this battle must be done by Zhao Qingtian. You may not be able to win the fight, the king of Tubo is also the king of the cult!"

"..."

The old emperor frowned and stopped talking, and the five confidants also fell into deep thought. After a long time, a general said: "If Zhao Qingtian can't win, my Tang Dynasty is completely hopeless, but I am willing to go south to attack the Yang family , to clear the way for Generalissimo Zhao!"

"You guard the capital of God well, I will fight the battle in the south, otherwise people will always think that I want to rebel..."

Zhao Guanren suddenly laughed, and the old emperor also laughed heartily, saying: "I used to believe this, but now I don't believe a word, Yunxuan! You are finally willing to go out in person, let's go! Let's go to Chu Xiuguan , I let you choose whatever you like!"

"It's not good, it's all your wife..."

Zhao Guanren looked at him in surprise, but the old emperor said: "What's the use of having so many goblins? In the end, it's not cheap, that little bastard. You guys are welcome. Take all the beautiful girls away for me today." !"

"Thank you Lord Ron!"

Zhao Guanren took the lead and agreed, but the other five people didn't dare to speak up. They just walked around the garden with the old emperor, and each picked out a beautiful girl who came out to play, but the old emperor rewarded each of them with another. , and then went to talk to his wife.

"Hey~ How can I serve you when I take it back, I won't come to the harem with Yunxuan again, he dares to say anything..."

Five people left with ten beautiful girls, shaking their heads sadly, Zhao Guanren let the two little beautiful girls play, and came to a bedroom cheerfully. Kneeling at the door.

"You guys go down, I have an appointment with the empress..."

Zhao Guanren pushed the door openly and entered. In fact, he didn't know the noble concubine at all. Because the noble concubine looked so much like Hepburn, Chen Guangda almost regarded this as his own home, but he didn't even think of it when he was beaten to death. Just started playing.

"Brother Longji! I don't agree with you, I have to check their brand name tonight..."

A beautiful woman only wore a pink and white bellyband and a pair of bright red silk underpants. She sat in Chen Guangda's arms with disheveled hair and acted like a baby. Another noble concubine leaned on the soft bed and said angrily, "Show hoofs! You've got to die!" , came to me all day to steal men... Ah! Who are you?"

"Ah! Who let you in..."

However, Chen Guangda waved his hands and smiled, "My brother! Didn't you see that he was wearing a purple robe, a newly promoted celebrity, I asked him to come over and see the ladies' demeanor!"

"You are going to die, what should you do if it spreads..."

The faces of the two concubines were all pale, and Zhao Guanren sat down dumbfounded, but just as he picked up a cigarette and lit it, Chen Guangshi pushed a small can of candied dates and shouted: "You are already concubines, why don't you worry about it?" Mao!"

"Did you buy it on the street..."

Zhao Guanren picked up a candied date and sniffed it, then threw it back with a weird face. The two concubines walked over blushing, sat around him with only their bellybands on, and poured him a cup of tea coyly. It is in the harem, but like in a brothel.

"Yes! You bought it in your shop..."

Chen Guangda picked up a candied date and threw it into his mouth, and said: "Last time, Liangzi took tea to drink, and I ate two by the way. When I came back, I asked the beautiful girls to make it for me, but no matter how I made it, I couldn't find it." taste!"

"Pfft~ Old Zhao is eating too..."

Zhao Guanren sprayed a sip of tea on the red pants, and the red pants patted him coquettishly twice, but Chen Guangda raised his head suddenly, and said suspiciously: "What's the matter, you didn't add ingredients to the dates, did you? Forced to say that after eating this thing, I want to go to the building!"

"There are several medicinal herbs for strengthening yang. If I eat too much, I will become constipated. I dare not eat it..."

Zhao Guanren flung his arms around the red underpants, and used her head to cover his face so as not to burst out laughing. He really didn't expect that the wicked girls would cheat the three old drivers in one go.

"Bad guy! Hug him when you come up, and punish you to eat a grape..."

The red underpants twisted him coquettishly, took a grape in his mouth and fed him with his mouth. Zhao Guanren didn't care about this kind of flirting. He knew that Chen Guangda's presence of the two concubines must have his intentions, and the concubine also hugged him. He feeds by mouth.

"Hey! Do you two know who he is? His name is Li Zhiping, the man of Princess Jiuyue..."

Chen Guangda blew smoke at her, but the red underpants bounced up again, covered his face like a ghost and rushed out, while the noble concubine also hugged her chest, jumped up and cursed the bastard, and even He ran away scrambling.

"You cheated on me, right? Who are they..."

Zhao Guanren rolled his eyes angrily, and Chen Guang said with a smirk: "The red pants are your mother-in-law, Princess Jiuyue's wife, and the white pants are Zhao Bilian's aunt, your father-in-law's sister, how about it? Do you want to call me father-in-law or Uncle, hehe~"

"Uncle! Take care of yourself, this date is soaked in urine..."

Zhao Guanren didn't care about his prank at all, cupped his hands gloatingly, and quickly explained the brewing process. Chen Guangda vomited it out with an "Aww", knelt on the ground and almost spat out the overnight meal, and kept scolding him for missing Dade.

"Let me tell you something serious, the cheats for practicing soul fire are out, and the profound energy can be transformed into soul fire..."

Zhao Guanren picked up the tea bowl and blew it, and gave the general situation. Chen Guangda quickly got up and wiped his mouth, and asked, "Is there any side effect after practicing Soul Fire? Will someone control it?"

"No! Soulfire cultivation is faster than Xuanqi, and its power is also stronger, and it can make people live longer..."

Zhao Guanren put down the tea bowl and said: "But with the soul fire, there will be evil sects. They will increase their strength by devouring other people's soul fire, and they will gradually lose their minds, and they will create corpse transformation. Appeared... the undead!"

"I understand, with the dead clan, there will be eternal night, and with eternal night, there will be black demon..."

Chen Guangda looked at him solemnly, and Zhao Guanren also nodded and said: "Without Yongye, there will be a demon king, and if there is a demon king, the cracks in the soul world will be torn open, and dead people and evil spirits will emerge, so this is a chain story. The disaster will spread to other worlds!"

"Can the cheats be destroyed..."

"Too many! The cult has completely reformed the soul fire training, and it can no longer be stopped..."

Chapter 1304 The Widow Monopolist

In a flash, it came to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Shangyuan Festival, which is the most important event for the people of the Tang Dynasty. During this time, the old emperor lay down completely. He found that after he ignored government affairs, his efficiency increased a lot, so he simply concentrated on rectifying his affairs in the palace Son and wife.

"Shangyuan Ankang!"

The Tianhe Avenue is full of flowers and tourists, and countless lanterns are spread all over the city. The "Calyx Xianghui Building", which symbolizes the decline of the Tang Dynasty, was changed into a building of benevolence, compassion and filial piety by the old emperor. It is open for rent and all proceeds go to charity.

"My son-in-law! Shangyuan Ankang..."

Officials from all walks of life entered the royal garden in an endless stream. Zhao Guanren, as the first charity customer, spent 5000 taels to set up a banquet in the garden, so that many people who have never had the opportunity to come in their lives can see the grandeur of the royal garden. It's just that the waiters have been replaced by folk men and women.

"Come, come! Sit wherever you want, tonight, no matter how big or small..."
