[Comprehensive] The five elements are short of money

"You mean that King Pingnan wants Li Daitao to be stiff just because his son has the same appearance as me?" Zhu Houzhao asked in surprise. Although he is young and not proficient in conspiracy and tricks, this kind of idea is useless just by hearing it!Zhu Houzhao looked regretfully at Yan Lide who was standing beside him. If they were still in the arena, Yan Lide would not be so strict about the etiquette of the monarch and his ministers. Maybe he could hear his "venomous tongue" again. I really miss it.

"According to Dongchang's news, it's true." Yan Lide said.

"If you want to replace me, you can't just rely on your face, right? Do they have internal support in the court? Who did they bribe in the harem? The mother and queen are still here, so they can't even recognize their son?" Zhu Houzhao asked repeatedly.

"Pingnan Prince's Mansion bribed Wang An, the leader of the eunuchs and eunuchs, and there is no internal response in the harem. Officials above the third rank in the court have not found any signs, and the investigation below the third rank has not been clearly investigated." Yan Lide reported the results very honestly.

so?that's all?Zhu Houzhao waited eagerly for the next sentence, but in the end, he said everything clearly in just one sentence.Zhu Houzhao is also very distressed, such a stupid plan, and his preparation as if he is facing an enemy, will lower his style, okay, why not go to Nanyuan to watch a play and tame animals!

"Your Majesty also thinks it's like having fun?" Yan Lide said with a smile: "In King Pingnan's plan, two great swordsmen will fight against the top of the Forbidden City, attracting all eyes. The city brought great pressure to the security guards in the palace. So the guards are busy guarding against the Jianghu people, who can pay attention to His Majesty's needs in time, after all, you are the one who let the Jianghu people into the imperial city, right? Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship is superb, if His Majesty is dead, there is someone exactly like His Majesty who can replace His Majesty, cover up the scandal of the royal family, and have the Supervisor of Ceremonies Wang An as a cover, it is not impossible to hide the truth."

"Hmph! The courtiers are not fools!" Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly. Although he was not satisfied with the few big cabinet ministers, he always felt that they were bullying the new emperor because of their seniority, but he had to admit the character of these people.

"The courtiers may not be able to detect it. The will of the saints passed down by the supervisor of rites in the past dynasties is no longer rare. You can detect it over time, but it will be too late." Yan Lide knew that he still wanted to talk about Queen Mother Zhang, so he smiled and said: "The Queen Mother The empress is naturally eager to love her son, but how effective is the empress's words in the cabinet? Because of the Marquis of Shouning and Jianchang, the empress does not have a good reputation in the court and the wild."

Of course, what Yan Lide didn't say was that since he ascended the throne, Zhu Houzhao had become much colder towards Queen Mother Zhang.This is not to say that Zhu Houzhao is a white-eyed wolf who treats his biological mother coldly as soon as he ascends the throne, just like any young man who is busy with his career and cannot accompany his parents. Now that Zhu Houzhao is gearing up for a big fight, he will naturally ignore Queen Mother Zhang.Empress Dowager Zhang did not notice her son's estrangement either. She was still immersed in the shadow of her husband's death, crying and mourning every day.If there is anything that can make Empress Dowager Zhang out of her grief, it is not her son's love, but her two younger brothers' cries and pleas.

Changing from wife-in-law to uncle-in-law, Marquis Shouning and Marquis Jianchang's appetites increased accordingly, which annoyed the emperor very much. It's ridiculous that they didn't know it.

"You are the only one who dares to blame the queen mother." Zhu Houzhao feigned anger.

"The minister is so honest, he will tell the truth." Yan Lide acted honestly.

"Understood, if I continue to implement the plan as I used to indulge in fun, maybe some courtiers will notice it and ignore it. It would be better to change to a hard-working emperor; or use this excuse to treat the emperor as a puppet of the cabinet? Hmph Those people, when they are upright, they are full of blood, and sometimes they are good at sacrificing others for righteousness and being generous to others, isn't the great-great-grandfather one of them?" Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly, when Yingzong was captured, except for Queen Qian, almost no one People look forward to his return.But he still came back, was imprisoned for eight years, and became the emperor from the titular emperor.

"Your Majesty is wise." Yan Lide said with a bow.

Yes, in the eyes of the emperor and courtiers like Yan Lide, everything is a court struggle, and Ye Gucheng is just one of the pawns. No matter how high the prestige of Baiyun City Lord is in the Jianghu, he is just a pawn. The imperial power is so contemptuous of the Jianghu.

"Okay, don't beat around the bush and say these words of remonstrance. I know in my heart that having fun is fun, and I won't delay the government affairs. The old man Liu Jian has stopped talking lately, which proves that I have studied well."

"That's why I said, Your Majesty is wise." Yan Lide continued to repeat what he had said. It is such a fulfilling thing to transform a slumbering emperor in history into a wise ruler who is diligent in government and loves the people.No wonder those literati always say that the highest achievement in their life is "being born in the Jin Dynasty and posthumously posthumously Wenzheng". Leaving aside what happens after death, it is a great right and honor to be a Taifu to influence the emperor and then the country.

"Okay, you also know the temper of the Jianghu people. It's right to leave this matter to you, let's not talk about them. I also want to tell you, don't be polite to Shouninghou and Jianchanghou. , I take care of it. My mother misses my father, and I plan to build a hall of filial piety and kindness in the palace, which should be decorated as if my father is here, for my mother and me to remember. Let the mother's love be entrusted, Yan Qing thinks?"

"Your majesty is wise." Yan Lide bowed again.

One is to show the emperor's filial piety and eliminate the bad influence brought by Liu Jin; After it is completed, Queen Mother Zhang will definitely start "retreating and practicing" immediately, so as to facilitate the handling of these two people.The emperor had been dissatisfied with these two uncles for a long time, not because he thought they were bad, but as a prince and emperor, Zhu Houzhao never acted arbitrarily.

"You've also learned the problem of flattering, but you still haven't learned it well, so you just keep saying this."

"Your Majesty made fun of it, but I have another idea." Yan Lide changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty used Fengtian Hall, one of the three main halls, to crown two top swordsmen. Isn't it a waste of just a good show?"

"Do you have a better idea?" Zhu Houzhao asked in surprise.

"Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, was involved in a major treason case. Your Majesty thought of his innocence, punished him slightly, and took Baiyun City for his own use. What do you think of this idea?" Yan Lide turned into a treacherous minister who slandered and came up with bad ideas, and spared no effort to persuade him. "Baiyun City is a descendant of the royal family of the Southern Song Dynasty. Feixian Island is all survivors of the Yashan naval battle. Of course, they should hate the Mongols of the Yuan Dynasty. We will help justice in the Ming Dynasty, but who will let the people still have the fallacy of 'There is no China after Yashan' Heresy, slandering Daming for not being upright. Why not let the world see how His Majesty has a broad mind and treats the descendants of the previous dynasty so favorably. Well, it should be the previous dynasty."

"Hahaha, okay, okay, you can do it, the guards of the imperial city are still in your charge." Zhu Houzhao laughed loudly, there must be such moments of face-slapping!

Yan Lide resigned contentedly.

Zhu Houzhao said to the eunuch accompanying him, "Pass to Liu Jin."

Originally, Wang An, the supervisor of ceremonies, should serve him personally, but who made Wang An not only love gambling, but also love whoring, with limited energy, and never stay in the palace when he is not on duty, so the emperor had the opportunity to hide it from him quietly.Otherwise, he would always try to distract Wang An, he would not doubt it, and King Pingnan behind the scenes would have to be vigilant.Or is it true that Wang Anxin is so successful, and before the matter is successful, he regards the emperor as a dead person and doesn't care about it at all.

Liu Jin arrived soon, knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, my servant."

"Get up, I won't call you, you are not here yet!" The emperor scolded with a smile. Liu Jin grew up with him, served as the admiral of the East Factory, and had the right to visit the palace at any time, but he didn't like to come.

"Your Majesty, forgive me." Liu Jin also put down her other leg and knelt on the ground.Zhu Houzhao was originally a joke, and Liu Jin made such a formal plea, which made the atmosphere stiff.

"Is Liu Banban still blaming me for asking you to run Nanyuan?" Zhu Houzhao asked quietly. The person kneeling seriously in front of him was his companion who grew up with him.

"Your Majesty, your majesty grants me all my affiliation. I am your slave. I will do whatever you want me to do. I am willing to die. It is an honor to die." Liu Jin worshiped him again. Willing to dedicate everything to the emperor, just like the previous plan, dedicating his life and reputation, not afraid of being stigmatized for thousands of years, this is his loyalty.

"Get up, I know your loyalty, but I just feel that my companion is getting farther and farther away from me." Zhu Houzhao sighed.

"His Royal Highness has playmates, but His Majesty has already sat on the dragon chair alone." Liu Jin bowed.

"Yes, sitting alone on the dragon chair." Loneliness is the emperor's companion, no one can be an exception.Zhu Houzhao caressed the handrail of the flying dragon, and his father dragged his seriously ill body to crown him in advance and marry a wife in advance, isn't it just to prevent the future troubles of the queen mother and ministers assisting the government?Before his father died, he wanted to help him to the emperor's throne, and he wanted to sit down just because of his loving father.

In just a moment, Zhu Houzhao came to his senses, and said with a smile: "I called you here to ask about the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City. How can I get Yan Qing to report back? You have been with me for many years, and no one is closer than you."

"Your Majesty treats you kindly, and this servant is very grateful, but Your Majesty said that this matter will be in charge of Mr. Yan, and this servant is only assisting, and there is no reason to rely on being close to His Majesty to report to higher levels. This is His Majesty's will." Liu Jin respectfully. report back.

"You, don't learn from those old-fashioned ones in the court. You are close to me, and you will report to me face to face in the future. As the admiral of Dongchang, you have the right to enter the palace at any time. I will give you a python suit Yudai, don't disappoint my expectations."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, it's hard for a servant to be smashed to pieces." Liu Jin prostrated herself on the ground, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Get up, Yan Qing is still in charge of the decisive battle. If there is anything inconvenient for him, it's the same for you to report back and forth." Zhu Houzhao helped Liu Jin up and called people in. They had just discussed secretly and sent everyone out. "Take the python robe jade belt and give it to Eunuch Liu."

When Liu Jin was leaving the palace, the news spread that the little eunuch beside him was holding the clothes bestowed by the emperor. Everyone knew that Liu Jin was going to recover.

As soon as Liu Jin returned to the East Factory, the little eunuch came to hug him: "Supervisor, Commander of Jin Yiwei, Mu Bin, has an audience."

"Did he go to the Ministry of Household Affairs or Mr. Yan Shuxing's residence first?"

"No, enter the palace directly from the Jinyi Guards." The little eunuch said.

"That's good." Liu Jin smiled.

What's the meaning?The little eunuch was puzzled, but he didn't dare to show it. Seeing that the governor had no intention of speaking, he quickly stepped back. Liu Jin was their role model for eunuchs, but this role model was not a vegetarian either.

..........................................

Tomorrow night is the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the decisive battle, but the guards of the imperial city have become more stringent, and those who do not believe in evil and want to step on the spot in advance, are all shot into hedgehogs by the bows and crossbows of the imperial army, and the corpses do not want to come back. The ashes were thrown up, triggering another wave of hatred among the people in the rivers and lakes.

Lu Xiaofeng entered the Yan Mansion again, this time he learned his lesson and did not force his way in. According to Wei Ziyun, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, the crossbow team was trained by Yan Lide. That one is still smart.

Holding the approval note from Yan Lide, Lu Xiaofeng indeed found a lot of things, but he was only one person, and he couldn't compare with Dongchang and Jinyiwei, which lasted for a hundred years, had a complete organization and many branches, and they were still circling in the fog.

"Brother Yan, tomorrow night is the time for the decisive battle, but the imperial city is still unable to enter. How can such a prosperous world lack witnesses? Your Majesty has a big heart. Since Ximen and Lord Ye are allowed to compete in the imperial city, how can you not allow Jianghu?" Anyone watching?" Lu Xiaofeng had already learned to show weakness.

"Lu Xiaofeng, do I have three big characters on my forehead? Just because I was born in the Jianghu, I have already been excluded in the court, and you always come here to find trouble." Yan Lide complained, showing weakness, who is better than the officialdom? People are skilled.

"Brother Yan, Master Yan, don't tease me. Who knows that you are the elder of the pavilion at a young age, how dare Lu Xiaofeng neglect you." Lu Xiaofeng bowed quickly, he could see that Yan Lide must have a way, but he didn't want to tell he.Lu Xiaofeng is also thinking, why his friends always make things difficult for him?

Yan Lide smiled, "It's not difficult for me not to neglect me. I do have a pass to let people from Jianghu enter the imperial city, but what do you get in exchange?"

Yan Lide smiled maliciously, Lu Xiaofeng opened his arms to indicate that he was alone, and said: "Lu Xiaofeng is notoriously poor, and brother Yan is the young master of the Jewelry Pavilion, so he must not look down on gold, silver and jewelry. In terms of power and martial arts, You are also top-notch, Lu Xiaofeng can't think of anything else that can impress you."

"I heard that Ximen Chuuxue always likes to shave your beard every time you chase someone for you?" Yan Lide joked.

Lu Xiaofeng patted his baby beard stiffly, why some people always have trouble with it, and how long it takes to keep it, Lu Xiaofeng is very heartbroken!

"I'm kinder than him, I don't want your beard." Yan Lide said calmly, Lu Xiaofeng didn't let go, and added: "I want eyebrows."

"Brother Yan!" Lu Xiaofeng exclaimed, without a beard, but his face looks fairer and tenderer, not like a quack.But there are no eyebrows, how do you look at it, the face is no longer an egg, it is bald.

"Here, don't be so loud, I can hear you." Yan Lide patted his ears, indicating that he was deafened, and asked in a leisurely manner, "Will you give it?"

Lu Xiaofeng had no choice but to grit his teeth and stomp his feet, bravely wiped with two fingers, and the two thick black and bushy eyebrows disappeared.

"Hahahaha!" Yan Lide slapped the table and laughed, it looked strange without eyebrows, his forehead suddenly widened by three points, his face looked weird and uncoordinated, with Lu Xiaofeng's signature smile, it was like making a grimace.

Now that his eyebrows were plucked, Lu Xiaofeng didn't hold back, just made him laugh generously, and only reminded him: "Brother Yan, I gave you the eyebrows, but you haven't given me your solution yet."

"Here you are!" Yan Lide wiped away the tears from his laughter, took out ten ribbons from the box on the museum shelf and threw them to Lu Xiaofeng. Lu Xiaofeng quickly caught them, stroked those brocades with the unique cold light of silk, and said, "This is certificate?"

"Yes, this is a tribute from the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau during the reign of the late emperor. There is only one piece of cloth. After making clothes, only these cloth heads are left. There is no second piece of cloth in the world. It doesn't take so much time to imitate it. It is just used Make a pass. Lu Xiaofeng, the task of distributing the pass is entrusted to you, you must screen carefully, if something happens to those people after they go to the imperial city, you will be jointly and severally responsible."

Lu Xiaofeng looked dumbfounded, with his mouth half-opened, as if shouting "Oh my god!"

"Why do I feel like I've fallen into the pit again? I'm still trying my best to fall into it." Lu Xiaofeng laughed at himself, Yan Lide waited for him to come to his door, and threw the hot potato to him. Now that he hasn't seen his intention, it's a waste of Lu Xiaofeng's self-proclaimed Smart man.

"Doesn't the phoenix have wings? Just fall into the pit and fly out." Yan Lide said irresponsibly.

"Lu Xiaofeng bids farewell." Lu Xiaofeng didn't want to say a word, just clasped his fists and left, if he didn't leave, he didn't know how many pits were waiting for him to jump!

"Qiyige has eyebrows for sale, if you can't buy them, I can give you Luo Zidai for free! You can't ask for so many beauties..." Yan Lide shouted behind Lu Xiaofeng, and before he finished speaking, Lu Xiaofeng started to fly out Yan Fu, this avoidance made Yan Lide laugh again.

Lu Xiaofeng had ten hot potatoes in his arms, worried to death, quickly bought a pair of eyebrows at the Strange Pavilion, stuck them on firmly, and then looked for someone who could give out ribbons.

Lu Xiaofeng sat casually at a wonton stand, no matter how worried he was, he still had to eat.As soon as the wontons were served, Lu Xiaofeng heard people from the rivers and lakes nearby discussing: "Have you found Lu Xiaofeng?"

"I didn't find it. I heard that the ribbon is on him. He decides who to give it to and not to give it to whom. Why should he judge the heroes of the world!" Someone said indignantly.

"Well, what are you talking about, since he has the ribbon anyway, we just need to find Lu Xiaofeng and grab one, and we're not greedy."

"Are we good at martial arts? Now everyone in the capital is looking for Lu Xiaofeng, and our martial arts can't be ranked high." The Jianghu people sitting at the wonton stalls on the street also knew themselves.

"Never mind him, what if we are lucky enough to miss it? Also, let's find Lu Xiaofeng first, but if we can't get the ribbon, we can still sell the news! We spent all the money on the trip to the capital, so we just borrowed Lu Xiaofeng to make money. "Not everyone in the rivers and lakes yearns for the demeanor of a superb swordsman. Compared with the ethereal martial arts artistic conception, the real money is cuter.

Lu Xiaofeng was so worried that he couldn't eat. He thought he could hand over the ribbon secretly, but he didn't expect Yan Lide to move so fast. The whole world was looking for him, so he really couldn't hide.

Lu Xiaofeng picked up the warm wonton and poured it into his mouth, stuffed something into his stomach and left the stall quickly.The two quacks who spoke just now came to their senses and said, "That person just now has four eyebrows, right?"

"Really, it's all because he didn't wear the red cape, otherwise I would have recognized Lu Xiaofeng a long time ago!" The other person also patted his thigh in response.

Now there is only one day and one night before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it will be no more than twelve hours, Lu Xiaofeng is carrying a ribbon in his arms, and he doesn't know who to give it to.It just happened that he encountered an accident in this short night, and he couldn't even concentrate on delivering the ribbon.

Lu Xiaofeng found the body of Monk Shengtong in the ruined temple, with blood-stained white gauze beside him.Monk Shengtong was once favored by Baiyun City and let Ye Gucheng hide in the ruined temple to heal his wounds and keep him secret.Now, Shengtong is dead, and Ye Gucheng's wound is still scattered around him, what does this mean?Is Ye Gucheng in trouble?How is his injury?Could today's decisive battle be held smoothly?

Lu Xiaofeng thought about the white horse that escaped from the eunuch's nest, Du Tongxuan's body, Li Yanhua was almost killed, and he was poisoned by Aunt Shisan. If Ximen Chuuxue hadn't arrived in time and was proficient in medical skills, he would not have survived.

These scattered clues flashed in Lu Xiaofeng's mind, only one thread could connect them together.But Lu Xiaofeng didn't have so much time to think, his most urgent task now was to distribute the ribbons.

Lu Xiaofeng turned back to the imperial city and saw Sikong Zhaixing Yirong following him in the crowd, suddenly thought of a brilliant idea, since Yan Lide can push things to him, why can't he push it to others?

Lu Xiaofeng hid two ribbons, one for himself and the other for Huamanlou. Even though Huamanlou would not be willing to watch such a life-and-death duel, Lu Xiaofeng still kept it for him just in case. one.

Lu Xiaofeng took the remaining eight ribbons in his hands and passed Sikong Zaixing, without even noticing, after Lu Xiaofeng walked through the crowded middle of the market, the ribbons in his hands had turned into ordinary brocades.Lu Xiaofeng threw out the hot potato and patted his arms triumphantly, he also hid two.

Um?Huh?Where's his ribbon?

Sikong Zhaixing smirked: "You think you can't find out if you hide it in your arms? You are the ancestor of thieves!"

The ribbon fell into the hands of Sikong Zhaixing. Sikong Zhaixing was not a thoughtful person like Lu Xiaofeng, so he directly sold it with a clear price tag.There was even a small auction, and the highest bidder won.Sikong Zhaixing counted a thick stack of banknotes, and muttered: "No wonder Lu Xiaoji is poor, I don't know how to do such a good deal!"

Survival of the fittest, big waves wash away the sand, these ribbons don't need to worry about Lu Xiaofeng or Sikong Zaixing, they will always return to the top forces in the Jianghu.

Lu Xiaofeng had nothing to do, and hid until the night of August [-]th before Shi Shiran appeared outside the imperial city. Lu Xiaofeng finally got a ribbon and snatched it back from Sikong Zhaixing.Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaofeng was stopped outside the imperial city while holding the ribbon.

Wei Ziyun, the deputy commander of the imperial guards, sternly said: "Lu Xiaofeng, the imperial court only gave you ten places, and today there are 32 people in it. Where did you get so many ribbons!"

Lu Xiaofeng is also very innocent, he just now knows that there are so many ribbons, okay? "How do I know? I did only take ten ribbons from Mr. Yan. It is said that there is no second piece of this kind of brocade in the world. How could there be so many more?" Lu Xiaofeng was more puzzled than Wei Ziyun, and said: "Even if there is, then The precious things are only available in the imperial palace, right? Commander Wei, why don’t you check if there are any traitors in the palace?”

Wei Ziyun let him choke back, he looked at Lu Xiaofeng in a bad mood, and said: "This ribbon is fake, you are not allowed to enter!"

Lu Xiaofeng looked at the ribbon he took from Yan Lide himself, since Wei Ziyun opened his eyes and said it was fake, then it must be fake.

Lu Xiaofeng took out a cardboard sign from his bosom and handed it to Wei Ziyun, saying: "Is this true?"

What Lu Xiaofeng gave was Yan Lide's approval note. The paper was specially used for the cabinet, and it had Yan Lide's signature and seal on it. Wei Ziyun also knew that this decisive battle was indeed handled by Yan Ge's veterans. It was reasonable and reasonable for Lu Xiaofeng to get it. go in.Lu Xiaofeng kept the approval note close to him, he did not expect Yan Lide to have such prestige in the court, even the deputy commander of the imperial guards acquiesced to his order.

When Lu Xiaofeng arrived, Ye Gucheng was already standing on the roof of Fengtian Hall, the full moon was in the sky, and the silver-white and cold moonlight was shining. Ye Gucheng was dressed in white, with a long sword in a black sheath, standing quietly on the yellow glazed tiles, the white White and yellow are brighter, looking like a fairy.

There were more than thirty people standing on the square of Fengtian Temple, Lu Xiaofeng could only recognize a few people from Wudang Mu Taoist and Emei Dugu Yihe.It's not that Lu Xiaofeng's knowledge is superficial and doesn't know famous figures in the world, it's because most people have changed their appearance, and it's a very unintentional disguise, so exaggerated that people can tell it's not the real face at a glance, but it also makes you unable to see the disguise Who exactly.

Everyone waited quietly, waiting for Ximen Chuuxue's arrival.

Suddenly, a white light flew over, Ximen Chuuxue was like stepping on the snow to find plums, his upper body didn't move, but his feet seemed to shrink into an inch, and he reached the roof of Fengtian Temple in an instant.There was no leverage on this journey, only a breath of true energy in my chest.The famous martial arts masters who watched nodded their heads one after another. Ximen Chuuxue deserved his reputation just because of his lightness kung fu.It's a pity that they came too late, Ye Gucheng was already waiting on the ridge of the roof, and he didn't see the demeanor of the Flying Immortal.

Wei Ziyun was maintaining order in the square, presided over the martial arts competition by the way, and said loudly: "Both of you are well-known figures in the martial arts world, and they probably wouldn't poison their swords, but in order to show justice and avoid people from all over the world talking about it, it's better to check it out. good."

Talking like this is simply an insult to the ethics and swordsmanship of the two masters of swordsmanship. How could they use such a small skill to pursue the pinnacle of martial arts wholeheartedly.

Wei Ziyun doesn't care, this is the practice of martial arts competitions in the palace, and it must be tested. "Let Lu Xiaofeng come." Wei Ziyun suggested, he also knew that although he was taking advantage of the officials, his martial arts were not as good as the two on the roof, making them think that he deliberately made things difficult, and ended up with a sword, how wronged .

Lu Xiaofeng stood up helplessly, before he could fly to the roof, he heard Ximen Chuixue say coldly: "You are not Ye Gucheng!"

"Who am I if I am not Ye Gucheng?" "Ye Gucheng" said expressionlessly.

Ximen Chuuxue was not good at fighting with words, so he drew his long sword out of its sheath and stabbed "Ye Gucheng" with one sword. "Ye Gucheng" was able to dodge at first, but after ten strokes, he staggered and fell on the smooth glazed tile, his chest fell. Don't hit him with sword energy, he vomits blood.

"Ye Gucheng" who was lying on the ground tore off the mask on his face. "Tang Tianrong!" Lu Xiaofeng exclaimed.

The most vigorous martial arts event, the other party of the duel is fake, what's going on?He is not Ye Gucheng, so where is Ye Gucheng?Why doesn't he come.

Tang Tianrong didn't leave any last words, his strength was only enough for him to tear them off so that he could pass away with his true colors.

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly jumped up to the palace next to him, but was forced down by the black-clothed imperial guards who suddenly appeared from the top of each palace.When Lu Xiaofeng discovered them, they no longer concealed them. Under the bright moonlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival night, their black clothes did not hide.

Black masses of imperial guards surrounded them, bows and crossbows were stringed, and arrows were pointed at their heads.

"What's going on here? Does the imperial court want to wipe out all the people in the world?"

"Lu Xiaofeng, you are an accomplice!" The people watching the competition glared at Lu Xiaofeng. This is a conspiracy, a conspiracy by the court!

Lu Xiaofeng raised his hands and swore: "I really don't know, if I knew I wouldn't have come."

An old man next to him said in a young man's voice: "It's true, I stole all of Lu Xiaoji's ribbons, who knows where he got another one in."

"Sikong Zhaixing?" Someone recognized it. The old man's outfit was seamless. If he hadn't exposed himself, no one would have recognized him. They only thought it was the reclusive master.

"Then what do we do now?" the crowd asked.

"Commander Wei, what should we do now?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.

"How do I know, you guys stay safe, I'll ask the superior for instructions." Wei Ziyun also had a dark face. As a martial arts practitioner, he also yearns for a duel with masters. , Who knows that there will be moths.

"If I were with Commander Wei..."

"In the imperial palace, where Your Majesty lives, how can you allow yourself to be presumptuous!" Wei Ziyun interrupted before Lu Xiaofeng finished speaking.

"Imperial Palace? Son of Heaven? I got it! I got it!" Lu Xiaofeng suddenly realized why Ye Gucheng wanted to compete at the top of the Forbidden City!The time was delayed because Ximen Chuuxue's wife was pregnant, so why was the location changed from Purple Mountain to Imperial City?This is the residence of the Son of Heaven!Ye Gucheng is the master of Prince Pingnan's son!At this time, those messy clues were strung together by Lu Xiaofeng with the thread of "rebellion".

"Wei Ziyun, something serious has happened, hurry, hurry, go to Qianqing Palace, I have something important to report to the emperor!"

"This is the imperial palace..." Wei Ziyun wanted to say something else, but Lu Xiaofeng slapped Yan Lide's approval note on his chest, and asked, "Is this still useful?"

Wei Ziyun looked embarrassed, choked and couldn't speak, so he could only acquiesce.

"I'll go with you." Ximen Chuuxue said coldly with his long sword back in its sheath.The destined opponent suddenly disappeared, and Ximen Chuuxue was the most angry. He put down his newly pregnant wife and came with the heart of Taoism, not to be deceived.

Lu Xiaofeng glanced at the approval note, Wei Ziyun nodded reluctantly, and said, "It's just the two of you."

Lu Xiaofeng didn't care to say more, nodded repeatedly, and said: "It's just the two of us, hurry up, there's something important!"

The martial arts practitioners present wanted to follow, but the old man pretending to be Sikong Zhaixing said, "Don't act rashly, it's the Zhuge Liannu." Everyone knows the power of the Zhuge Liannu. Liannu kills the first-class masters in the rivers and lakes.Now that there are so many Zhuge Liannu, the people who hold the crossbows are still well-trained soldiers, and they can't go head-to-head.

Lu Xiaofeng wished he could use lightness kung fu in the palace, he was very anxious, if it was as he guessed, Ye Gucheng would plot a rebellion!

At this time, the palace of the Qianqing Palace was in a state of confrontation.

A quarter of an hour ago, Zhu Houzhao was critiquing papers when Wang An came over with a cup of tea. He said in a strange tone, "Your Majesty, I invite you to drink tea." Divide him into one, so that Wang An's play can't continue.Wang An looked at the cold-hearted emperor in front of him. He had been serving him since he was the prince, and now he is the eunuch in charge of ceremonies, but he is still not taken seriously by the emperor.Thinking about the son of Pingnan Wang who treated him with courtesy and corporal Xu as a high-ranking official, Wang An's heart became more determined.

Zhu Houzhao didn't respond, but took Wang An's teacup with the other hand, lightly touched his lips, and put the teacup on the table.

Zhu Houzhao finally moved his eyes away from the memorial, and looked at the man standing in his bedroom wearing the emperor's uniform. He had a face exactly like his own.

"Disguise?" Zhu Houzhao pretended to ask.

Wang An couldn't wait to jump forward and said: "Your Majesty, this old slave will introduce you. This is His Highness Prince Pingnan's son. His face is exactly the same as His Majesty's, which is not comparable to rough disguise."

"The son of the vassal king entered the capital without the imperial edict, which is tantamount to treason, son of the king of Pingnan, can you be convicted of the crime?" Zhu Houzhao asked.

Prince Pingnan's voice was louder, and he reprimanded sharply: "The son of the vassal prince did not follow the order to enter the capital, which is tantamount to treason. Prince Pingnan, can you be convicted?"

Zhu Houzhao put down his ink pen, he didn't expect such an idiot to exist in the world!Wearing a dragon robe doesn't look like a prince!

"Your Majesty don't need to get angry, Prince Pingnan's son entered Beijing privately, His Majesty will kill him." Wang An flattered Prince Pingnan.

"Oh? You don't care about King Pingnan?" Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows.

Prince Pingnan's son said sternly, "Shut up, I don't allow you to question my decision!"

Zhu Houzhao shook his head. Those who achieve big things don't care about small things. If he had the courage of Liu Bang's father to ask for a share of the pot, Zhu Houzhao would admire him. Now he wants to accuse him of the crime of entering the capital without permission, but he doesn't even know how to deal with it later. King Pingnan didn't even think about how it would end. Zhu Houzhao felt that he had lost his worth by accompanying him in a play.

Prince Pingnan's son saw that Zhu Houzhao was still aloof. Seeing him like an ant, he was very angry and shouted: "Don't be complacent, you are going to die soon, the truth is naturally the truth in the mouth of the living!"

"City Master Baiyun! It's time to do it!" Prince Pingnan looked forward to Ye Gucheng who walked in from the door.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up, Ye Gucheng lived up to the reputation of flying immortals, bright as the sun and the moon, majestic and solemn, with awe-inspiring temperament, it seems that not all people in the Jianghu are blind, Zhu Houzhao thought to himself.

"You are a beautiful woman, how can I follow a thief?" Zhu Houzhao sighed.

Yan Lide couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth while hiding behind the curtain, Zhu Hou's habit of taking care of people's faces was repeated again, these words sounded like molesting.

Ye Gucheng didn't talk nonsense. The reaction of the court was beyond their expectation, and they didn't have much time left. Ye Gucheng was not a long-winded temper, so he drew his long sword directly.

Unwilling to be lonely, Prince Pingnan's son commented: "City Lord Ye is the best swordsman in the world, you will surely die. After you die, I will bury you generously. Thank you for taking the throne..."

Zhu Houzhao disdainfully gave him a look at this kind of idiot who wouldn't say cruel words. Ye Gucheng had already drawn his long sword. Now that Yan Lide was there, Zhu Houzhao didn't have to call out the royal guards.

Yan Lide walked out from behind the curtain slowly, holding a soft sword in his hand. The soft sword was injected with internal force, straight and shining coldly.

"Yan Lide, the young master of Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion?" Ye Gucheng asked uncertainly.

"It's a blessing for Yan to be remembered by the Lord of Baiyun City." Yan Lide completely regarded himself as a Jiang Hu person.

"You caught Ximen Chuuxue's sword." Ye Gucheng said, looking at the whole Jianghu, Ye Gucheng only regarded Ximen Chuuxue as his opponent, and also regarded Ximen Chuuxue as a benchmark for measuring martial arts.

"I was going to ask City Lord Ye for advice." Yan Lide nodded.

"What are you doing with so much nonsense, why don't you kill the emperor, kill him!" Prince Pingnan said without hesitation.

Yan Lide took a step forward and stood in front of the emperor, his aura suddenly became fierce, scaring Prince Pingnan and Wang An back a few steps.In a master's fight, life and death are only a moment, neither of them has the certainty of winning, and they are quietly waiting for the opportunity to make a move.

Suddenly, the two moved at the same time, Ye Gucheng's sword energy was magnificent, and the white light was bright, in this narrow bedroom, it was like a flying fairy descending from the sky, illuminating the entire space.Yan Lide was relatively simple, but every time he happened to catch Ye Gucheng's attack on the emperor. One coincidence, two coincidences, Ye Gucheng finally faced up to this opponent.

Ye Gucheng's sword is indomitable. He knows that Yan Lide is a master and must go all out. He still owes Ximen Chuuxue a competition. If he wants to die, he only wants to die by Ximen Chuuxue's sword.Yes, the moment he saw Yan Lide in the emperor's bedroom, he knew that their plan had failed, and the emperor had already prepared for it!Yan Lide, his martial arts, his past, the elite soldiers he trained in the northwest battlefield are good at combined attacks, and the Zhuge Liannu he improved with the cooperation of the master Zhu Ting, all these past events flashed in Ye Gucheng's mind. Gucheng pays more attention to the court than to the rivers and lakes.

While Ye Gucheng and Yan Lide were competing, Wang An, who was shocked back, fell under the footsteps of the emperor's throne, looking at the emperor who was close at hand, Wang An
