Chapter 44: Changing the Foundation (Part 1)
Daqian Palace.
Li Haotian held the secret memorial in his hand. Even though he was an emperor and the city was deep, he was inevitably shocked when he saw the news.
He once guessed from King Qing that Gu Yuanqing might be above the Grand Master, but after all, King Qing was only in the True Martial Realm, so it was inevitable that he might misjudge.
And now, Tianzhu old man Jiang Hongguang was killed with a sword, and the meaning is self-evident.
If you are not above the Grand Master, how can you kill the Grand Master with one sword? Even if this person is not Gu Yuanqing, he must be the person behind Gu Yuanqing. If not, he wouldn't have taken several shots.
Li Haotian thought for a long time and asked: "Has Grandmaster Qin returned to the capital?"
"Your Majesty, I haven't come back yet. It must be delayed due to some things."
Li Haotian nodded.
“Dear companion, Uncle Wang Xuanqing came to the imperial study.”
"Yes, I will go now."
Half an hour later, King Qing came to the imperial study, bowed and said, "I pay homage to your majesty."
"Uncle Wang, please get up. Let’s sit down and talk.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me a seat.”
After King Qing sat down, he asked, “Why did your Majesty call me here late at night?”
>
"Uncle Wang, take a look at this first."
Li Haotian handed over the secret memorial.
Prince Qing took it with both hands and could tell at a glance that the secret music came from the Eagle Guard. He read the contents above and his expression was slightly shocked.
After a while, King Qing put down the letter.
“Is Your Majesty ready to tell this old minister the truth?”
Li Haogang gave a wink, and Xu Lianying bowed and retreated, repelling the other people around and standing guard outside the imperial study room.
At this time, Li Haotian smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle Wang asked me last time why I didn't tell you about Gu Yuanqing's situation. Now I am answering you. In fact, I don't know.
I won't hide it from Uncle Wang. , what happened last year, according to my opinion, Gu Yuanqing's death is not enough to vent the hatred in his heart. It was Miao Xuan who insisted on keeping his life and imprisoned him in Beiquan Mountain
It was said to be a forbidden area, but in fact it was just a deserted mountain, and was only guarded by the imperial guards who guarded the seal of the demonic realm at the foot of the mountain.
I wanted him to be alone for the rest of his life, which was considered punishment
But half a month later, Miaoxuan suddenly told me that she was pregnant with Liujia and was determined to find the way to immortality. She did not want to stay in the palace, so she wanted to give birth to this son to be the queen of my Li family. I didn't allow it, but after all I couldn't stand her temper.
But now, the name of Gu Yuanqing has spread all over the world, and it can no longer be hidden. Whether Gu Yuanqing or the person behind him is above the master, the word "imprisonment" is inappropriate. However, this matter affects my royal family’s reputation, and I have no one else to discuss it with, so I invited Uncle Wang. "
King Qing thought for a moment and asked, "Has your Majesty issued an edict? "
"Of course not, it's just oral instructions. "
"Your Majesty, you don't need to do anything else for now. I heard that Gu Yuanqing likes to read, so why don't you go back and ask someone to send some books to you. ”
"Then the Gu family..."
...
The master was killed with a sword. This was a top priority in the world. The news was like growing legs and spread throughout the world in a few days.
Linping County is about three hundred miles away from Beiquan Mountain.
In a teahouse, a storyteller in his forties was dancing on the stage, his eyebrows were dancing and his tongue was fragrant. While talking, he gestured with a folding fan.
"Speaking of this, at that moment, I saw a flash of silver light, whipping up thousands of layers of wind and thousands of waves. That day, when Old Man Zhu took a closer look, he realized that a sword light was coming. He was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were broken, and he was so anxious. , fought in all directions at night, and only danced the ice soul and jade bamboo in his hand to make it airtight..."
"Haha, Li Kangwen, you are going to laugh me to death. That is the Grandmaster. You said the Grandmaster started a night battle in all directions?"
The storyteller on the stage was interrupted by the voice and was very unhappy. He scolded: "Qiu Laoer, what do you know? This is called returning to nature. You are in the hands of the master." Are you the same person who fought in all directions at night? That means water can't be poured in and wind can't blow in. "Okay, okay, I'll take it as what you said is right, but how could I hear the third son of the Hu family say that during the Grandmaster's battle?" , you didn’t rush over at all, you were still on the road when all the masters were gone.”
< br>
"That's nonsense. After I heard the news, I went to Beiquan Mountain in person, ate and slept in the open air, and waited for three days and nights before I saw the Grand Master's battle with my own eyes. How can I allow you to talk nonsense?" The storyteller glared angrily and cut off people's money. If he killed his parents, he now wanted to kill Qiu Laoer.
"Okay, tell me quickly, grandpa, I paid to come here to listen to the book, not to see you quarrel." A thin old man said dissatisfied.
"Yes, either hurry up and tell the story, or refund the money."
One person started, and everyone agreed.
For a while, the onlookers in the teahouse started shouting.
"Sorry, sorry, ladies and gentlemen, I'll tell you now." The storyteller glared at Qiu Laoer, and then continued to get ready to speak.
Suddenly, a group of government officials pushed open the door and entered.
There was one person in the lead, dressed in green clothes, with a silver shark knife hanging on his waist. He glanced around with sharp eyes, and then with a wave of his hand, the officer behind him posted a portrait of a sea fisherman on the wall.
"Tiance Mansion decrees that anyone who provides true information about the person in the portrait will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver. If he can help the arrester to be brought to justice, he will be rewarded with a hundred golds."
Subsequently, this The group of people left in a hurry.
People who were still sitting and listening to the book gathered around to watch.
"I'll reward you with a hundred taels of silver for reporting the letter. Who do I want to catch this time?" It’s also possible to earn life but not spend it.”
"What are you afraid of? If you see it, go to the Yamen and report it, and you will get a hundred taels of silver. How does he know who went to report it?"
The thin old man stood up and took a look at the portrait from a distance. , my heart suddenly He scolded: "Damn, these grandsons of Tiance Mansion are really serious this time. They even sent people from this small town. This time, the fox really missed the target and ended up in a mess.
However, It’s also strange, since you let me go, why Why are you rushing to catch me again? Could it be that I was involved in something from the past? Fortunately, Grandpa, I am proficient in the art of disguise and have been prepared in advance. Otherwise, the group of hawks and dogs in Tiance Mansion would smell it and they would not be able to get rid of it. Drop. ”
……
Beiquan Mountain.
The people in the surrounding arena finally dispersed, and some people were unwilling to leave just now, waiting outside to see if another grandmaster would come.
But obviously I made a mistake and waited a few more days in vain.
The imperial guards at the foot of the mountain finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were already responsible for guarding the seal of the Demon Cave, and had to guard Beiquan Mountain day and night. During these days, in addition to practicing, almost everyone was patrolling. Now Finally I can take a break.
Gu Yuanqing has also resumed his daily practice. After killing the old man Tianzhu with one sword, his heart completely relaxed.
Furthermore, this also means that in Daqian and Beiquan Mountain, he no longer has to fear anyone.
Life and death are no longer up to others, even if the emperor comes... Well, he is Miaoxuan's father after all, so he still has to give him some face.
However, the so-called being imprisoned by the royal family was no longer in his mind.
When one's strength exceeds the level of a master, these so-called rules are no longer rules!
The complete relaxation of his mind began to affect his practice from the inside out, and the true energy in his body seemed to become more lively.
Cultivation is all about cultivating the mind, and changes in the state of mind naturally reflect all things.
Whether it is viewing mountains or looking at objects, it seems more agile and natural than in the past few days.
The long sword flies freely in Beiquan Mountain like a dragon. Occasionally, the sound of breaking through the air is heard, so there is no need to worry about anything.
And his cultivation has unknowingly gone very far to the ninth level of Zhenwu.
By this time, he had focused most of his attention on mental deduction, because he needed to change his foundation before breaking through the master!
Bosses, please check if you still have monthly tickets in your hands. It’s the end of the month and will expire soon. Expiration is a waste, don’t you think?
Bow, thank you~~
