Madam, protect me!

In the study room.

Li Nuo wrote several letters in succession.

One letter is for the master. As a disciple, I haven't seen the master for a long time. I want to invite the master to come and sit in Chang'an so that he can fulfill his filial piety. I also want to ask the teacher to ask some questions about martial arts.

The letter mentioned the two senior sisters by the way. He invited the two senior sisters to come to Chang'an with his master for a change of mood.

Several other letters were sent to Huashan, Hengshan, and several other martial arts sects closer to Chang'an.

The Ministry of Rites has just finished holding a martial arts conference.

This time, Li Nuo held a small martial arts meeting in his own name and invited the masters of various sects to come to Chang'an for exchanges.

Not long after he finished writing the letter, his father-in-law and mother-in-law came to Li's house.

Song Zhe's face was filled with sorrow. As soon as he saw Li Nuo, he asked directly: "Where is your father?"

Li Nuo said: "It should be at Dali Temple."

Song Zhe was a little anxious and said: "What time has it been? He still has time to work!"

While in the court, he has been keenly aware of some changes in the wind direction in the court in recent days.

The King of Han and King You united a large number of powerful officials to plan an action, and this action was obviously aimed at Li Xuanjing.

If they really want to clear the emperor's side, even His Majesty will not be able to stop them if they gain momentum.

Once public opinion is coerced, it will form a rolling torrent that can only move forward but cannot retreat.

When the time comes, they can even ignore the law and use the most extreme means to get rid of him. Except for Princess An Ning, the rest of the Li family will inevitably be affected.

Li Nuo looked at his mother-in-law and said, "Senior sister, could you please send this letter to Sanqing Sect and hand it over to the master?"

Huashan and Hengshan are not far from Chang'an and can be delivered quickly.

But Sanqing Sect is too far away, thousands of miles away, so the fastest way is to ask the grandmaster to deliver it.

Su Qing was not polite to Li Nuo. He opened the letter quickly, took a look at it, and said, "Do you want to invite Master to come over?"

Song Zhe breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Although he is not a warrior, he also knows how powerful the warriors in the sixth realm are.

If the strong man from the Sanqing Sect was willing to come to Chang'an, he could at least keep their family safe.

Su Qing put the letter back, looked at Li Nuo, and said: "The Sanqing Sect has never been involved in court affairs. The master may not come here. It's best to let your father make some other preparations..."

Li Nuo nodded and said, "I understand."

Even if Phoenix and his father-in-law could detect it, his father must have known about it for a long time.

Although Li Nuo didn't know how he would respond, he certainly wouldn't make any preparations.

At this time, Dali Temple.

King Chun looked at Li Xuanjing and said, "Father is in seclusion. Otherwise, you go to my palace to live for a while. They should not dare to attack the palace."

Li Xuanjing opened a new file, shook his head and said: "If they really want to do it, even hiding in the palace is useless."

King Chun said again: "Then I will send someone to escort you out to avoid the limelight. Once your father comes out of seclusion, you won't have to worry about anything."

Li Xuanjing shook his head slightly and said: "I'm afraid that our every move is under their surveillance. If we leave at this time, it will play into their hands. Chang'an is the safest at this time. Your Highness does not need to worry, I know it well."

King Chun scratched his head anxiously, but seeing Li Xuanjing's indifferent expression, he could only pat his thigh and leave with a long sigh.

A moment later, in front of a certain palace in the palace, King Chun looked at an old man with a white face and no beard, and said: "Eunuch Huang, please let me see my father. I really have urgent matters!"

The old man holding the fly whisk shook his head and said: "Your Majesty King Chun, it is useless for you to beg me. You also know that when His Majesty is in seclusion, he will set up a barrier so that no one can disturb him..."

King Chun sighed, turned and left.

Although he was the prince of the prison country, at this moment, he also felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

He looked back and clenched his fists in his sleeves.

Unless he ascends to that supreme position, he can't protect anyone...

…

Han Dynasty Palace.

A figure walked into the hall, hugged the King of Han, and said, "Your Highness, King Chun just entered the palace and wanted to see His Majesty, but he didn't see him."

The King of Han took a sip of tea and said: "My father is in seclusion. It is impossible to see people. It would be strange for him to see people. By the time my father comes out of seclusion, it will be a done deal. Without Li Xuanjing, he will not even be as good as King Ji..."

Then, he asked: "Did Li Xuanjing do anything?"

The man said: "No, he is still the same as before, except going home and going to Dali Temple. However, all the experts from the Mirror Division have been transferred to his side."

Next to the King of Han, Wang Yue asked: "Mingjing Division, how many masters does Mingjing Division have?"

The King of Han said: "Mingjing Division is an espionage organization under Li Xuanjing. There may be some masters of the fourth realm, but there should be no grandmasters of the fifth realm, but there is a fifth realm grandmaster guarding him in his home."

Most of the powerful masters of the imperial court are in the military. The Mirror Division is just an espionage organization. Its ability to collect intelligence is first-rate, but it is not famous for its military force.

Civil servants and military generals have different affiliations. Li Xuanjing, the military master, cannot be mobilized.

Wang Yue smiled coldly and said: "The fourth realm, what kind of master is the fourth realm? If they dare to stop them, they will be killed together."

This time, there were five grandmasters secretly sent by the Wang family.

Counting himself, that's six.

Coupled with the King of Han, King You, and the masters recruited from the powerful houses, killing Li Xuanjing is like picking something out of a bag.

The King of Han remembered something and added: "Also, Li Xuanjing's in-laws are also a master. Li Xuanjing's son was accepted as a disciple by a master of the Sanqing Sect..."

Wang Yue was stunned for a moment and asked: "What?"

He looked at King Han and said in shock: "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

The King of Han said, "You never asked."

Wang Yue's expression was a little uncertain.

One or two grandmasters is nothing, but the Sanqing Sect is not someone to be trifled with, let alone the disciples of the Sanqing Sect's leader.

Three sixth realms and more than ten masters.

Even the Wang family cannot compete with the Sanqing Sect alone.

But the Sanqing Sect couldn't possibly touch the Wang family.

The aristocratic families and the martial arts world have always been in harmony with each other. Although several major aristocratic families occasionally have conflicts of interest, if they encounter life-or-death matters, they will choose to advance together and retreat together.

No family can guarantee that they will always be strong.

Although several major families have extremely excellent martial arts bloodlines, in some special periods, there will be a situation where there is no strong person in the sixth realm to take charge.

At this time, other companies will not only not add insult to injury, but will also take more care and support for them.

This is also an important reason why they can be passed down for thousands of years and still stand firm after many dynasty changes.

He originally planned to use Qingjun's side to kill Li Xuanjing and his son together to avoid future troubles.

But since he has the status of Sanqing Sect, the Wang family has to consider it.

The three sixth realms are extremely oppressive to both the imperial court and the aristocratic families.

After thinking for a long time, although Wang Yue was unwilling to accept it, he could only say: "This time, I will let his son go for now, but Li Xuanjing will definitely die..."

The Sanqing Sect is thousands of miles away, and it never interferes in the affairs of the court. As long as the Sanqing Sect's leader's disciples are not touched, there is no need to worry about them.

The King of Han nodded and said: "If Li Xuanjing dies, his son will not be able to cause any trouble in the court, so there is nothing to worry about..."

The reason why Li Nuo was so comfortable in the officialdom and aroused the fear of countless officials was simply because of Li Xuanjing.

Without Li Xuanjing, how many people would betray him?

If Li Xuanjing dies, his worries will be completely let go.

at this time.

The palace, somewhere in the main hall.

The old man holding a fly whisk sat in front of a chessboard, picked up a chess piece, thought for a long time, and then shook his head and said: "I have been playing chess all my life, but I still can't beat your majesty. I surrender..."

Opposite him, a middle-aged man shook his head and said: "You are a person who gives up when you are at a disadvantage. Playing chess with you is not interesting at all. Playing chess with Li Xuanjing is more interesting. Every game is interesting." Play happily, win happily, lose happily..."

The old man smiled and said: "Master Li is the smartest person in Daxia. Naturally, I cannot compare with Master Li. Do you want Master Li to come over and play two games with His Majesty?"

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "No need, it's better not to see him at this time."

The old man put away the chess pieces and said: "This time, the situation in Chang'an is unprecedentedly dangerous. I don't know how Mr. Li will break the situation..."

Emperor Xia also had an expression of interest on his face and said, "I'm also curious, how will he respond this time?"

But soon, the smile on his face disappeared. He played with a few chess pieces in his hand and said calmly: "Li Long and Li Xing are more promising than I thought. They united with the Wang family and forced me to submit. For a hundred years, I should He must be the first emperor to be forced to side with the emperor..."

The old man didn't answer any more, and the palace was quiet for a moment. Suddenly, a figure walked in from the back of the palace, took out a secret envelope from his sleeve, handed it to Emperor Xia respectfully, and said: "Your Majesty, a secret report from the Mirror Department..."

Emperor Xia reached out to take the folding book and opened it casually.

Although he rarely interfered in court affairs, he was aware of everything that happened in the court.

I thought this time it was just a routine secret report from the Mirror Division, but when he looked up, the expression on his face froze instantly.

The next moment, several chess pieces he was playing with turned into powder in an instant.

An invisible aura spread out from his body.

The other two people outside the hall felt their legs weaken and fell to the ground, losing all their strength in an instant.

The secret fold in Emperor Xia's hand had been clenched into a ball of waste paper. There was a captivating light in his eyes. He took one step and disappeared into the hall.
