Pawn Crossing the River

Qin Hengde couldn't help but widen his eyes.

What does Qi Xuansu want to do?

Does he want to fight with the man in black?

Since Emperor Xuansheng and Emperor Gaozu, the Taoist sect and the imperial court have been called one. Although the Lingguan and the man in black belong to different systems, in the overall situation, they are partners, allies, and even Pao Ze. If there is a conflict between the spiritual officer and the man in black, it is not just a case of the accomplices killing each other. There is no problem in describing it as a conflagration.

Soon, the spirit officials took control of the entire Qiuhua Courtyard, including the guests, prostitutes, and turtle slaves, all under centralized supervision, while the rest of the men in black relied on the courtyard to set up their positions.

These spiritual officers have also just been transferred to the Imperial Palace. Many of them are elite spiritual officers who have just come off the battlefield in the Western Regions and have rich combat experience.

The reason why Qi Xuansu was sure that the Shenshu Camp would send someone was not because of the reason he had just stated openly, but because he realized that since Li Ruoshui had made clever arrangements, to be sure, maybe when he led the team to leave the Jade Palace , Li Ruoshui will send someone to inform Prince Langya that Qi Xuansu is going to attack Qiuhuayuan. The Prince of Langya County would definitely not remain indifferent to the warning from the dignified leader. Naturally, he would rush over to support the situation. When the time comes, the men in black would block Qi Xuansu. Even if Qi Xuansu had no intention of embarrassing the Prince of Langya County, he still had his words. Hard to argue with.

There are also three hundred spiritual officers specially arranged by Li Ruoshui. It is hard to say whether there may be someone with ulterior motives among them who "accidentally" misfired when facing the man in black, and then it became an irreversible fact.

This is me in you and you in me.

This sentence makes your ears feel calloused, but when you actually face this situation, it still feels tricky.

So Qi Xuansu also made arrangements for these three hundred spiritual officials. Among them, two hundred spiritual officials were left in place by him, a certain distance from Qiuhua Courtyard. Logically speaking, they would not be involved. If someone dares to act without authorization and approaches Qiuhuayuan rashly, causing serious consequences, Qi Xuansu will be able to absolve himself of responsibility on the grounds of resisting orders and acting without authorization. Shi Bingyun and others will also use this matter to fight back.

There are also a hundred spiritual officials who are left by Qi Xuansu in the courtyard to guard the prostitutes, turtle slaves, and guests, and will not face the men in black directly. The remaining four hundred spiritual officers are all Shi Bingyun's men and can be trusted.

The key to why Qi Xuansu dared to do this was that there was someone behind him. Without the support of Master Donghua and Shi Bingyun, even if his subordinates acted without authorization, Qi Xuansu would be blamed in the end.

To put it bluntly, there is a threshold for presenting facts and reasoning. Only when they are evenly matched can facts, principles, and laws be meaningful. If there is a disparity in strength, the facts can be put aside. The truth is nonsense, the law is waste paper, and the fist is real.

Qin Hengde also understood this truth.

If Qi Xuansu has no backing, then even if there is a conflict, it will be the men in black who suppress the rebellion. Qi Xuansu is the person who intends to cause rebellion, and maybe he can be labeled as a secret society monster.

But Qi Xuansu has a strong background, so the nature is not decided by the men in black and the family. After the dispute, it will most likely be classified as a firefight. The final result is likely to be a fifty-fifty fight. Of course, Qi Xuansu cannot escape the involvement. , his status as the eldest son of the county prince will probably not be preserved, and he will probably be demoted to a commoner, or even imprisoned within a high wall.

This Qi Xuansu is really a mad dog. If he doesn't want to do well himself, he won't let others do the same!

Thinking of this, Qin Hengde became a little confused and said loudly: "Qi Xuansu, although you are a fourth-grade wine-sacrifice Taoist priest, you may still be a figure in other places, but in the Imperial City, you are nothing. If If you are stubborn and are enemies of the clan and the imperial court, then it will be as simple as crushing you to death with a mantis' arm like a chariot. "

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but feel a little funny, and he also saw that Qin Hengde was confused, otherwise he would not have said such lines that only third-rate characters in the script said, but he still responded: "Since crushing me is as easy as crushing an ant , then just crush him, why talk nonsense? Does the little prince still have the habit of talking to ants? He is really childlike. "

Qi Xuansu has some Li family talent in terms of ridicule.

After Qin Hengde was bullied by Qi Xuansu, he became even more arrogant: "Don't forget that you still have family, parents, wife and children..."

Qi Xuansu sarcastically said: "Little Prince, are you saying similar words smoothly and forgetting that I am from the Wanxiang Dao Palace? My parents, wife and children, and my master have been away for many years. Now they are asleep in the Requiem Division. Deputy Hall Master Zhang is in Yu The palace is investigating the case. Are you going to dig a grave in Kunlun Mountain? Or are you going to use Deputy Hall Master Zhang to hold me hostage? To be fair, Deputy Hall Master Zhang is much more valuable than me. If you want to touch her, you have to ask Jin Que if he agrees."

What Qi Xuansu hasn't mentioned yet is Qiniang, a fake fairy, Wu Guangbi and Siming Zhenjun couldn't do anything to her. That's not Qi Xuansu's weakness, that's Qi Xuansu's support.

At the same time, Qi Xuansu also secretly criticized himself. In the past, he had always regarded himself as a wild Taoist priest and looked down on people from aristocratic families. How can he be better now? He often moved out of his patronage to speak out, and became a child of aristocratic families in a certain sense.

However, the world is like this. Without a background and support, it is difficult to move forward. After all, he had won all his backers except Qiniang by himself. If he did nothing, Master Donghua and Shi Bingyun would not let go and support him.

Qin Hengde's face turned green and red, feeling very embarrassed.

At this moment, the sound of heavy horse hooves coming from far and near came from outside the courtyard - the Divine Imperial Guards that Qi Xuansu had expected had finally arrived, and there were quite a few of them.

The Admiral, the Commander-in-Chief of Military and Political Affairs in Beijing, is said to be able to gather 20,000 troops with one call. As his deputy, the Commander-in-Chief of Military and Political Affairs in Beijing, it is not difficult to mobilize several thousand troops.

As for mobilizing men in black in the Imperial City, it actually doesn't mean anything.

It's not that His Majesty the Emperor trusts the King of Liao, but that His Majesty the Emperor is not afraid of these. Among the many guards of His Majesty the Emperor, the Divine Imperial Guards are only the outermost layer, followed by the Qingluan Guards, Tianchen Division and Xuanhui Academy, among whom there are many heavenly beings and even pseudo-immortals.

What's more important is His Majesty the Emperor himself. The King of Liao and the King of Jin are both heavenly beings in the creation stage. So what should be the level of cultivation of His Majesty the Emperor who has been in power for forty-two years and is as stable as a rock? Would someone who could keep pace with the Taoist master be as afraid of a so-called mutiny as an ordinary emperor? Therefore, as long as he does not enter the inner city, His Majesty the Emperor will not pay attention to the reckless actions of the two chief military officers of the Beijing Camp.

You must know that "Jiushi" originally means "longevity and long-term vision". It can be said that the current emperor uses these two characters as his reign name, which is of great significance. Over the years, more than one person has speculated: Does His Majesty the Emperor want to seek immortality? Or have you already achieved immortality? The two sides argue endlessly, but there is a relatively unified point of view, that is, His Majesty the Emperor has at least the realm of the pseudo-immortal stage.

What's more, the Divine Imperial Guards have the duty to patrol the city, but this time there are just a little more people patrolling the city.

Qi Xuansu grabbed Qin Hengde's sleeve.

Qin Hengde looked like a frightened cat, his fur flying and said: "What are you going to do!"

"Little prince, follow me out to welcome guests." Qi Xuansu pulled Qin Hengde and strode out.

Qiuhuayuan occupies a large area with multiple entrances and exits. The main building is adjacent to a bustling street, and the men in black cannot form a formation at all. Therefore, the main force of the Shenshu Imperial Army is gathered outside the south gate of Qiuhuayuan, which is dedicated to Cars come in and out, and it's very empty outside.

Qi Xuansu also went to this portal.

"Open the door." Qi Xuansu arrived at the south gate and ordered the Lingguan to open the gate.

Two fifth-grade spiritual officers slowly opened the heavy door.

Outside the door, cavalrymen in black were galloping towards them. The darkness was like a dark cloud sweeping over them. The dense horseshoes were beating fiercely on the ground, as if the earth was shaking. Even the small stones on the ground were jumping.

The moment the door opened, the cavalry happened to rush over. These well-trained cavalry quickly reined in their reins, stopped one after another, and formed a semicircle formation outside the door. Horses' legs stood out, spears were held high, and the sound of pulling bolts came from the back row.

At the same time, the spiritual officials who used the courtyard walls and gate towers as cover and occupied the commanding heights also aimed their long blunderbuss at the people in black.

The situation is on the verge of breaking out.

Both sides know the basics, and if they really want to take action, no one is sure of victory.

A fellow disciple who was taught by his master cannot break the moves.

Qi Xuansu walked out of the door, still holding Qin Hengde's sleeves, asking him to stand next to him. Behind the two people were three rows of black spiritual officers. They avoided Qi Xuansu's position and raised their long guns forward from both sides. If there was a war, , is the classic three-stage gun array, ensuring that there will be no interruption in the firing of fire guns.

The distance between the two sides was too close for the cavalry to run or charge, and it was crowded. Gunslingers can also easily fall into close combat situations. Each has its own disadvantages.

At this moment, the cavalry formed in a semicircle separated from the middle to both sides. A general wearing dark heavy armor slowly stepped forward. He held the reins in one hand and a riding crop in the other, and walked slowly and leisurely. He stopped when he was less than ten feet away from Qi Xuansu.

In the end, Prince Langya did not come forward in person, but only sent one of his right-hand men.

"Qian Longchi, the chief military officer of Shenshu Camp." The person came from the registration number. Among military generals, the garrison chief is second only to the general and admiral chiefs who are only awarded in wartime. The garrison chief in Beijing is different from the local chiefs. They are nominally on the same level, but in fact they are slightly higher. Half a level out.

Qi Xuansu said briefly: "Qi Xuansu."

"I have heard about you and Zhao Fuan." Qian Longchi said slowly, "Such a young heavenly being is indeed rare. It's just that I am different from Zhao Fuan."

This sentence does not mean much self-satisfaction, it is just stating a fact, and it is indeed a fact.

Zhao Fu'an is only a heavenly being in the free and easy stage, while Qianlongchi, as a close minister of the emperor, is a heavenly being in the immeasurable stage.

This is the Imperial Capital, which is said to have more heavenly beings than Yujing.

What's more, the black heavy armor on Qianlongchi's body is not an extraordinary thing, but a top-notch treasure called "Xuanshui Armament". It is a joint masterpiece of Tianji Hall and Shenji Camp. Although it weighs three thousand kilograms, it will make His speed is slow, but combined with his immortal body, he can face "Fengyan Jialiu" or "Dragon Eye Jiaqi" head-on.

Horses that can carry such a weight are naturally not ordinary things, but dragon blood mutants.

Qi Xuansu asked: "Does General Gan want to have a private fight with me?"

Qian Longchi said expressionlessly: "I am a warrior. I am not good at bickering. I am only good at fighting. This is the Imperial Capital, and it is not easy to fight in a battle formation, so you and I might as well imitate the generals in the storybook and challenge each other in front of the battle. You win. Yes, I’ll leave immediately. I won, you’ll leave immediately.”
