Chapter 113 Approaching
It snowed heavily overnight, and Yujing City was covered in heavy snow.
The same goes for Prince Qing's Mansion. The roof and branches are covered with thick white snow.
Tingtao Courtyard was completely white.
In the morning light, Chu Zhiyuan was dressed in a loose white robe, standing on a purple sun post in the heavy snow in the courtyard, practicing the Great Purple Sun Technique.
Heat surged throughout his body, and the white snow within one meter of his body gradually melted.
The aura of Da Zi Yang Jue became more and more mellow.
The twelfth floor is both deeper and more pure than the eleventh floor, and the Great Purple Yang Jue has been slightly adjusted.
The practice becomes smoother and smoother, and it feels like being slightly drunk, like soaking in a hot spring.
The biting cold air could not enter his body, but the cold air was so clear and almost sweet, so pure that every alveoli in his lungs stretched and cheered.
He smiled in the morning light.
The purple light scattered from the void became more intense, twice as intense as before.
These purple awns merge into the dense purple air, causing subtle changes in the purple air.
This kind of change is extremely weak, and if you don't have super-sensory abilities, you would have to accumulate it over time to feel the change.
As the realm improves, more and more purple lights are attracted.
He could not imagine how much purple light the Purple Sun Sutra could absorb after reaching the master level, and how intense it would be.
Chu Qingfeng was the only person practicing the Ziyang Sutra around them, but Chu Qingfeng never practiced in front of them, he just stood aside with his hands behind his hands.
Chu Zhiyuan understood the reason.
The Grand Master's training conference exudes an astonishing aura, making them who are both acquired and innate seem to be standing in the wild waves, unable to practice.
So he didn't know what the other masters who practiced the Ziyang Sutra were like.
There was silence in Tingtaoyuan, and the chirping of birds on the branches could be heard clearly.
Zou Fang stood next to the small pavilion. Two of Mo Yi's four daughters were guarding the door of the small courtyard, and the other two went to inform various places.
Time passes slowly.
The sun rises.
Prince Qing's Mansion was still very quiet.
Mo Yi had already given instructions that the Crown Prince was practicing in the courtyard this morning and should not be disturbed. Therefore, all the attendants in the palace were very gentle and did not clear the snow.
When the sun rose and the purple light disappeared, Chu Zhiyuan collected the Ziyang pile.
Prince Qing's Mansion suddenly became active.
Those who plow the snow, those who wash, those who cook, those who sweep, those who feed the horses, all busy with their own affairs, in full swing.
……
Chu Zhiyuan entered the house and put the Miaoling Pearl into the cold jade box.
The flying dragon ball was hung under the neck again, and he picked up the last flying dragon bone.
The third level of Dragon Transformation Technique surges, continuously absorbing the breath of the flying dragon bone and integrating it into the purple gold skeleton.
The purple gold skeleton's ability to absorb the third layer of Dragon Transformation Technique was getting weaker and weaker, and he felt that it was almost reaching its limit, almost perfect.
This flying dragon bone is enough.
Therefore, there is no need to exchange the fifth-grade skill for the flying dragon bone.
Now it seems that there is no need to exchange for the Miaowu Pill. With the Miaoling Pearl, it is equivalent to countless Miaowu Pills, so there are more choices.
When he returned to the house, his super sense kept spying relentlessly, trying to find ways to invade and penetrate the wonderful spiritual pearl.
But he has never been able to get in.
The Miaoling Pearl has a strange power that blocks the super-sensory tentacles.
However, the super sense did not give him any danger warning, so he is now less vigilant towards the Miao Ling Pearl and is not so alert.
Close the cold jade box, and the Miao Lingzhu will not be taken out for the time being to avoid being robbed.
He got up and had breakfast with his family.
——
"I found out."
While eating, Bai Ningshuang suddenly came closer, her voice was low, and she felt a little sneaky, which made Chu Zhiyuan smile.
Bai Ningshuang lowered her voice: "Where is Concubine Zhen born?"
"Where?" Chu Yi came over, her eyes shining: "Mom, don't be so secretive, tell me quickly."
Chu Minghou looked at them helplessly, smiling as he ate, but did not come over. He is not interested in these things. What interests him is that painting is a picture scroll and there are like-minded painters.
When I ask about any of the famous painters coming to Beijing, I always want to invite them to come and have a chat.
Bai Ningshuang said excitedly: "No! Worry! Teach!"
Chu Zhiyuan was startled: "Is it really the Wuyou Sect?"
"You can't be wrong!" Bai Ningshuang said proudly: "The empress has been holding back and not saying anything, but I finally found out!"
"Wuyou Sect..." Chu Zhiyuan looked towards the direction of the palace and asked softly: "Mother, are there any empresses in the palace who are from the Jiuli Divine Sect and the Yongling Divine Sect?"
The Queen of the West Palace is from the Yueyue Palace, and the Concubine Zhen is from the Wuyou Cult. Are there also concubines from the Jiuli Divine Cult and the Yongling Divine Cult?
The imperial court and the four major demon sects are on a par with each other. The four major demon sects have independent fiefdoms, and if they do not commit crimes outside their fiefdoms, the imperial court will not interfere.
The disciples of the four major demon sects have sworn not to enter Yujing.
But the emperor actually accepted the disciples of the four major demon sects as concubines, and the relationship was extremely complicated.
"I haven't heard of it." Bai Ningshuang said: "There are also factions in the palace. For example, the empress is from the market faction, Concubine Zhen is from the martial arts faction, there are also the noble faction, the courtier faction... In short, it's so complicated. Very!”
Chu Zhiyuan said: "The water is too deep."
Bai Ningshuang sighed: "It is said that once you enter the Houmen, it is as deep as the sea. Our palace is not that deep, but inside the palace, it is really unfathomable!"
"Then why was Concubine Zhen thrown into the cold palace? Was it because of the poisoning?"
"I don't know about it. My queen doesn't know either. It's hard to ask others about it, so I don't dare to mention it."
"If you dare to poison the palace, who do you want to poison?"
"The emperor has been gloomy these days. Everyone is being careful. The atmosphere in the palace is very depressing."
……
After breakfast, he went to the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites to order Mao.
The streets and alleys were all clearing snow, and everyone was clearing the snow in front of their own homes. Together with the patrolling guards, Yujing's avenues quickly returned to clean and tidy.
The roads have been cleared, but the roofs are still covered with half a meter of snow, which shows how heavy the snow was last night.
When we came to the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, the clerks in the yamen were also sweeping away the snow, and they were all breathing white and steaming steam.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded to the respectful greetings of the minor officials one by one, quickly entered his room, sat down and looked through the files.
Gao Lingfeng came in to report that the case of Zhenyi Sect Fang Xiuhao had not yet been investigated.
The wind and snow last night had a great impact on the atmosphere, so I'm afraid it won't go well.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded casually.
Fang Xiuhao was not the only one in the world who died because of his cleverness, and he didn't feel any pity at all.
But Zhenyi Sect has a connection with Yao Yue Gong. What will Yao Yue Gong do?
Two Zhenyi Sect disciples were killed, Yaoyue Palace would just sit back and watch?
Then Gao Lingfeng reported another thing.
There was a thief in the Archives Department.
He Jiuji's relic box disappeared.
The heavy snow covered all traces, and people from Zhenwu Division came to investigate, but there were no clues. He Jiuji's relics were of little value, so they didn't bother to investigate further.
Chu Zhiyuan still nodded casually.
But my heart is awe-inspiring.
Who would be interested in He Jiuji's relics?
Of course it’s the Jiu Li Sect!
Could it be that the Jiuli Divine Sect knew that the Miaoling Pearl was obtained by He Jiuji?
Or should we cast a wide net and try to catch all the fish?
If it's the former, can it be traced to myself?
Gao Lingfeng was the only one who knew that he had taken He Jiuji's relics.
Gao Lingfeng will not leak it out.
But there is no airtight wall in the world. If he doesn't leak it out, it may not be known to Jiuli Divine Sect.
How does Jiulishen Church do it?
Thinking of this, he didn't feel worried, just curious.
The Jiuli Divine Sect is not the Jade Cauldron Sect and will not mess with his son, so what will it do?
——
After coming out of the Rites Yamen, he returned to his new residence and practiced the Asking Heart Sword Jue and the Heaven-Breaking Sword Jue before trying to risk his way to the Jade Tower.
The meridians are most likely to be injured by impacting the Jade Tower. After the meridians are injured, they are immediately restored by the Emperor Tianhou Tu Jing.
As he expected, it couldn't be broken with one blow, it would take time and effort.
Through the super-sensory cave light, he vaguely felt that it would take a month of hard work to break through the last layer of the jade tower, reach innate perfection, and find the path to the master.
When I returned to Prince Qing's Mansion at noon, I found an agarwood Feiyun carriage parked outside the residence. I knew it belonged to Duke Kang's Mansion.
He frowned and stopped.
