Chapter 532: My Majesty, I will win the Western Front...
Deep in the palace, there is a secluded and deserted yard.
An old pavilion stands in the courtyard, with five floors in total, with a stone wall displayed on each floor, which is the foundation of the Dayu royal family’s inheritance.
At this moment, on the fourth floor of the pavilion, the room with the closed door, the surface of the mural belonging to "The World" is filled with stars.
A thin crack slowly emerged, and Zhao Duan stepped out of it, stunned by the unexpected change, which made him feel horrified.
"Is this the backyard of the Wugong Hall? Did I come out of the painting?!" Zhao Duan looked at the familiar room in disbelief.
Outside the closed doors and windows, sunlight shines through the window paper on the brown ground, illuminating half of the futon.
He subconsciously turned back and found that the crack on the stroke behind him was healing quickly and slowly disappearing.
"It's gone...so, I followed Zhenbao's consciousness into the 'channel' in the painting and walked out of the painting in the opposite direction?"
The answer is obvious, but I didn't see Xu Zhenguan when I saw it.
"She is not here? Did she enter other places? But I traced backwards and appeared here... instead of appearing directly beside her..."
"This is the mechanism behind 'visualization'? When practitioners visualize, their essence is to communicate in a certain way, using this mural as a 'server' to transmit consciousness? So, I can only trace back to this node?"
Zhao Duan tried to understand this matter in a familiar way.
"No! I am meditating to sink consciousness into the scroll... instead of entering the 'body', so in theory, I am not the ontology now, but a piece of consciousness..."
Zhao Duan quickly lowered his head, looked at his body, and his face changed slightly.
Only then did he notice that his "body" was translucent, floating on the floor like a ghost.
Yes...
It is very similar to "Pei Niannu" in reality!
"I can clearly sense the existence of my 'body', which is very far apart. Perhaps with a thought, I can use the murals as a medium again and return to my original body..."
Capturing the mysterious, physical connection, Zhao Duan's nervousness faded and turned into surprise.
Obviously, this is not like an "accident", but more like the "function" of the stone wall itself, but it was discovered by him by chance.
"I have lost my body and I have lost my cultivation. This is indeed very similar to Pei Niannu's state."
Zhao Duan stared at the mural, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.
He did not choose to return immediately, because he was not sure if there would be a second time, so he wanted to explore it a little.
Touch the boundaries of this ability as clearly as possible.
Zhao Duan first made various attempts in the room and confirmed that he was just a "ghost", similar to a state of wandering souls.
Then, he tried to float out of the pavilion, and the doors and windows did not hinder him. Soon, he appeared in the courtyard shining in the sun.
"Well... there is no burning and tingling sensation, which means I am at least not a yin thing that is afraid of the sun..." Zhao Duan laughed at himself.
He continued to float out cautiously, exploring the limits of distance. There were few traces of people in the depths of the Wugong Hall, but just as he passed through the courtyard wall, he was suddenly locked by a sinister voice:
"Who dares to sneak into the palace?! Is it really a matter of blindness and deafness?"
Zhao Duan's body stiffened and turned his head to look not far away.
The closed hanging flower and wood door creaked open, and a familiar figure with bright red python robe with gray hair, slightly hunched over her face as heavy as water, as if running in a hurry.
Eunuch Hai's eyes were shining, his fists were clenched in his sleeves, and his energy was lingering, and he had already acted like a bombardment to kill the enemy.
The two looked at each other.
The air suddenly became quiet.
Eunuch Hai's gloomy old face twitched, showing shock and confusion, and incredible.
Zhao Duan was silent for a moment and tried to float quietly to the side. However, no matter how he floated, he was firmly locked by the Eunuch Hai who had opened the sky eye.
Well... it is indeed similar to Pei Niannu. Although it seems to be "invisible", it can be seen through by practitioners.
He said tactfully: "Father-in-law, if I say I'm going back to the palace to report military information to Your Majesty, do you believe it?"
Eunuch Hai: “…”
...
Yuanzu Hall.
Xu Zhenguan, who was sitting cross-legged, opened her beautiful eyes and a strange color flashed through her eyes.
Recalling the experience of this visualization, she couldn't help but fall into thinking.
Obviously, the changes that happened in "The World" were a positive signal, and the clues she was struggling to search for finally emerged.
However, after a brief surprise, Xu Zhenguan fell into confusion:
"Why is this different? If the reason for the change is that I have become a real god, then last time and last time... I have also been in several times during this period, why are they the same as before? Only this time, is it different?"
The Empress will be like a player who is cautious in "opening up the land" when playing games. There is no strategy, it depends entirely on exploration and not letting go of any doubts.
"Something must have happened that affected the world... Could it be that the short-term fluctuation in the south?"
Xu Zhenguan immediately recalled the changes in the direction of Linfeng that he sensed not long ago.
Thinking of this, she immediately got up, dragged the ground with her long skirt, walked out of the Yuanzu Temple, and returned to the direction of her bedroom.
I was preparing to order people to inquire about information in a hurry, but unfortunately the journey was long and no matter how fast the message was, it took time.
But as soon as she returned to the Hall of Yangxin, a female official came up and said hurriedly:
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Heaven Supervisor has entered the palace and there is an important matter to meet the saint!"
Imperial Heaven Supervision?
Xu Zhenguan's face changed slightly and said:
"Where are people?"
...
...
"Don't touch me, just sing... Bah, just say a few words."
Zhao Duan stood in the quiet courtyard with a speechless look on his face.
My feet almost touched the ground, but they were always separated by a layer and could not keep their feet on the ground.
Eunuch Hai looked at him in surprise, stretched out his hands, tried to find him again and again, but could only pass through Zhao Duan's body.
At this moment, the old eunuch circled around him twice, his old eyes shone, and he was amazed and said with a smile:
"You kid... are interesting, really interesting. We have been guarding the royal forbidden land for a hundred years. We have also observed the murals of the 'human world' more than thousands of times, but we never knew that the town left by Emperor Taizu still had such ability. It's amazing and wonderful."
Since Lao Hai saw it, Zhao Duan had no need to escape. He could only briefly explain the situation, but hid the details in the scroll.
Eunuch Hai was still skeptical at first, but after Zhao Duan said a lot of details that only the two knew about, the first worshiper of the Great Inner finally confirmed that he was true.
"Suppressing things? Daddy, do you think this stone wall is a suppressing things?" Zhao Duan was stunned for a moment and captured the keywords.
Eunuch Hai nodded calmly and looked at him with strange eyes:
"What else? If it were just an ordinary stone, would you really think it could carry the secrets of the royal family?"
"But when I first came, you didn't say..."
"You didn't ask."
"..." Zhao Duan sighed softly, spread his hands and said, "Anyway, I'm confused."
Eunuch Hai nodded and looked a little serious:
"Maybe Your Majesty will know the reason. Let's go, our family will take you to see Your Majesty."
Zhao Duan didn't move and hesitated a little. It was an accident that the discovery of Eunuch Hai was, and if he met the Empress next.
As long as the empress is not stupid, she can realize that she has a connection with the "chapter" in the picture. If not, the identity of the "time traveler" will be exposed.
This matter could not be fooled at all, but it seemed that there was no way out. He had to bite the bullet and follow the old eunuch slowly.
I delay time on the grounds that I am "unhappy" and try my best to think about how to explain the question of the empress below. "By the way, father-in-law, how do you know someone sneaking in? It's coming so fast? Did you have any strange phenomena when I came out?" Zhao Duan asked curiously.
Eunuch Hai shook his head and said:
"There is no strange phenomenon on your side, but not long ago, we saw a star passing by in the sky, flashing away. We were a little uneasy in our hearts. On a whim, we came to check it out.
You should understand that when you reach the state of your and me, our spiritual awareness will often guide and remind us of some things. ”
meteor? Zhao Duan felt a little moved.
He knew that shooting stars were a very normal phenomenon, but Eunuch Hai could detect shooting stars passing by in broad daylight, which was a bit scary...
He is worthy of being a veteran expert who has lived for one or two hundred years... Even though his combat power has declined due to his age and has no longer reached its peak, his background cannot be underestimated.
The two left the Wugong Hall all the way. On the way, Zhao Duan also learned that Eunuch Hai had only returned to the palace in the past two days.
I was sent to the border by the empress and met Duke Tang. On behalf of the empress, I had some negotiations with the generals of the border.
In a short while, the two arrived at the Hall of Yangxin.
Eunuch Hai asked the female official to communicate with him, but the female official said:
"Father-in-law, Your Majesty is talking to the Imperial Heaven Supervisor. If there is any urgent matter, will I go and report it?"
The female official did not look at Zhao Duan at all... Well, for those who have not had high cultivation, they cannot see Zhao Duan's existence or hear his voice.
He is a transparent person.
"No hurry, let's wait." Eunuch Hai didn't want to make a big fuss.
When the palace maid walked away, the old eunuch in the python robe covered her sleeves and whispered in a low voice:
"It seems that the star is indeed extraordinary."
Zhao Duan suddenly said, "Can I come here also be related to this matter?"
After waiting for about a cup of tea, a one-eyed old man was taken out along the corridor. When he walked closer, he bowed to Eunuch Hai. Both sides abide by the tacit understanding of being a minister and did not talk.
But when the one-eyed old man passed by Zhao Duan, he seemed to feel something faintly. He looked in the direction he was standing, but as a mortal, he could not see through Zhao Duan's existence.
"Ha, this blind junior looked at the stars on the observatory for a lifetime. With his ordinary body and half-blind eyes, he could sense some traces of you. It is also considered extremely unusual among mortals."
Eunuch Hai commented and then walked towards the imperial study room. However, when he was about to approach, he stepped away from the female official in the yard and said to him:
"You go in by yourself. We're guarding our family outside."
Lao Hai, I knew you understood me... Zhao Duan silently praised and walked to the door of the Imperial Study Room.
I raised my hand and tried to knock on the door. After halfway through the movement, I remembered something. I laughed at myself and simply walked through the door and entered the house.
...
In the study room.
Xu Zhenguan sat behind the yellow table, lowered her head and flipped through an old booklet. Her snow-white regular clothes were not dirty at all, and her hem was soft and hanging, covering her long legs and feet unknown to outsiders.
The black hair was slightly loose and casually. When I lowered my head to read, the crystal clear and delicate auricles between my hair were like a thin piece of porcelain, and under the sun, thin red blood vessels were exposed.
The creamy skin is blown and can be broken, and the long eyelashes are stretched and curled.
She was reading the focus when she suddenly felt something. She paused her fingertips of her old book, and suddenly raised her head. A sharp sword light in her phoenix eyes lit up indoors.
The next second, this sharpness turned into shock.
"Your Majesty," Zhao Duan raised his hand and bowed:
"I, Zhao Duan, the governor of the quelling rebellion, has captured the enemy city today and regained the lost land!"
stupid!
At this moment, even with the calmness of the Queen of Dayu, she fell into a brief brain outage!
She didn't even hear the content of this sentence clearly, but blinked hard. Even if she suspected that she had hallucinations, she did not suspect that it was Zhao Duan's problem!
Could it be that I have thought about something at night and dream about something on the day?
I'm dazzled...
However, how could a cultivator of heaven and man have such an outrageous illusion?
Soon, with the feedback from his divine thoughts, he told her clearly that it was indeed Zhao Duan in front of her.
She stood up and was shocked and lost her voice:
"How could you be here? No, this is not you... not the complete you."
Xu Zhenguan's eyes revealed Zhao Duan's state:
"Are you dead? Is this a soul? No... the soul after death is in a mess, but there is no awake consciousness... You are more like the "wandering soul day trip" method mastered by some sorcerers... What's going on?"
She walked over, stretched out her slender hand, and also passed through Zhao Duan's body without any obstacles.
"Your Majesty, this is a long story." Zhao Duan smiled bitterly:
"This matter starts with the rebels setting fire to the city."
"Finding the city? The rebels burned the city?!" Xu Zhenguan was stunned and became nervous.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Zhao Duan had just said, as if the loss of land on the Western Front had been recovered?
Her curiosity suddenly rose to the extreme, and she felt uncomfortable as if she was scratched by a cat.
Zhao Duan nodded and signaled to sit down and talk - although he could float, he could also stay in a sitting position without feeling tired at all.
"This is how it is..."
Then, he began to lead his troops south from his own way and arrive at Taicang Prefecture City in an orderly manner.
On the way, I encountered a "shadow guard" and learned that the silver mine was attacked, so I went to rescue him. With the help of Yuxiu, I repelled the White-Yimen Gate.
When Su Dan tried to burn the city, he, with the help of Pei Niannu, covered up the actual hoarding of mana in the name of raising military rations.
In the end, when Su Dan's tactics deceived the court successfully and Fencheng was preparing to retreat calmly, he forced the wind and rain, summoned the water god, and decided the outcome in one battle.
During the process, the empress did not disturb her, but waves were stirred up in her heart again and again.
The look of looking at Zhao Duan was surprised.
She thought that she had seen too many achievements of this little imperial guard and would not be surprised by what he did.
But now I realized that this is not the case.
Zhao Duan does not have the talent to lead troops to fight, and cannot compete with Xue Shence in terms of tactical and strategic aspects. Perhaps even Shi Meng and Yuan Feng are inferior.
But he played a decisive role in reviewing this battle.
Even Xue Shence was deceived by Su Dan, and almost turned into a city of burning. Once he succeeded, the losses could be imagined and the entire front line would be dragged down.
But just in this desperate situation, it was Zhao Duan, the "governor" who did not know how to lead troops to fight. With one person's strength, he reversed the world and laid the victory.
It made the God of War and others pale.
When the report of this battle was sent back to the capital, Xu Zhenguan could even think of the wonderful expressions on the faces of the military officers in the court led by the Privy Council and the Ministry of War.
Who said that Zhao Duan would not play a big role in the battlefield? Who said that he defeated the Qingzhou army and only relied on the Shenji Camp?
In fact, even if he abandons the Shenji Camp and the masters around him, just one person is enough to disrupt the world!
This is the man she chose. Only such a man can make her marry herself!
There is only one person in the world.
Not long ago, Zhang Yan said there was joy and answer.
The "Heavenly Man" who caused the brief fluctuations of the celestial phenomena was actually Zhao Duan, who summoned the water god by chance.
I see!
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?" Zhao Duan called softly.
The empress, who was so sensible, then came to her senses, and her eyes were filled with panic. She turned her head away and her cheeks were slightly red.
But she quickly adjusted, took a deep breath, and asked, "What...what later?"
The big victory on the front line naturally made her happy, but in comparison, Zhao Duan appeared in the palace strangely, which was even more incredible.
