Li Chuan was a little moved after hearing this.
If we could figure out what happened to the half-demon woman, then perhaps half of the mystery of the White Walkers could be solved. But... Li Chuan said: "If you want to borrow it, you have to ask Master Wang, right?"
Wen Guying said: "Master Wang, I guess he won't object."
>"I want to think about it again." Li Chuan felt that a lot of information was mixed together in his mind, making him afraid to act rashly.
Wen Guying also agreed and said: "You need to think more about it. Anyway, I neither agreed nor explicitly refused in front of the empress."
After the two of them discussed it again, Li Chuan suddenly felt hungry again. . It was already getting late and everyone in the kitchen had gone to bed, so they ran out and had a bowl of fried rice in the night market. After eating, Li Chuan finally felt calm and slept until dawn.
He thought hard for several days. The empress's recent actions seemed to be arranging her affairs, but Li Chuan was still a little worried about what she would do after seeing the half-demon woman.
After all, he was a ruthless man who could kill ancient monsters and his own children.
Unable to think of it, Li Chuan stopped thinking about it for the time being. After that, his life returned to normal. In the morning, he read case files with Zhu Qingyun in the calculation room. In the afternoon, he sometimes studied the Classic of Patterns, and sometimes went to train at the foot of Xuanyan Mountain. Occasionally, he was dragged by Bo Yiliang to the Monster Hunting Department to deal with all kinds of strange things. .
After spending time with Bo Yiliang for a long time, Li Chuan realized this person's nature - he looked very serious, but he would always make some unexpected moves. Most of these moves had miraculous effects, while a few made people laugh or cry.
So he no longer cares about what happened before, but will refuse some things that seem unreliable.
Gong Wuguang visited him once during this period. Li Chuan showed him the repaired Yuanhuo Mirror. Gong Wuguang looked at it and said, "The "Classic of Patterns" is really amazing. I feel that the entire mirror has been tempered again. Tianyu It’s worth borrowing the Yuanhuo Mirror this time.”
Hearing this, Li Chuan asked the empress about borrowing the Yuanhuo Mirror.
After pondering for a while, Gong Wuguang said: "Your Majesty has a deep mind, and I can rarely guess her thoughts. If you feel it is inappropriate, it is better not to borrow it."
< br>
He said: "When I mentioned you to His Majesty, I only said that you and my good friend Mingheng are from the same heritage, so I wanted to help. I didn't mention the rest."
Li Chuan was very grateful and finally made up his mind.
After lunch that day, while he was working on the calculation of the room and the sword, a government servant came in and said that a man named Chang Xiao was looking for him. Li Chuan was very happy and asked people to bring Chang Xiao in quickly.
He tidied up the calculation room a little, and not long after, he saw Chang Xiao walking in. He said: "Mr. Chang? Where did you come from?"
Chang Xiao said: "I left the Sishen Palace a month and a half ago. I took a fairy boat to Feiyang County, and then traveled all the way here. , finally arrived in the capital yesterday. I went to Sanyi Hutong first, and Gong Er told me that you were in Qintian Prison, so I came over.”
After finishing speaking, Chang Xiao saw the sword placed in front of the table. He hesitated and asked, "Is this the sword of Daochang Wen?"
Li Chuan said, "Yes."
"Why did it break into pieces like this? What did you encounter in the Temple of Gods?" Chang Xiao asked.
“I almost didn’t come back.” Li Chuan picked out some of the things he could say to Chang Xiao in the Shenxia Temple.
Chang Xiao was a little scared after hearing this. He said: "When I passed Qinshuitan before, I saw the Shenxia Temple from a distance. Fortunately, I didn't enter it at that time."
"Indeed." Li Chuan thought of the butterfly spirit in Chang Xiao's body before, and was really not sure what would happen if he went there.
Then Chang Xiao also told Li Chuan what he saw along the way. He said: "I originally planned to go back to Zhuangzi to get some things, rest for a few days and then continue traveling. But my father gave me He left a message asking me to see him immediately after returning to Beijing. "What does the general want from you?" Li Chuan asked.
Chang Xiao replied: "Father told me that His Majesty intends to clean up all the big monsters in Dajiang Dynasty within one or two years. So he sent the Yunshan Army to He selected some people and gave them to Qin Tianjian for training. He said, I was the commander of the Yunshan Army before. Now that my body has recovered, would I like to take these people with me to cooperate with the training at Qintian Prison?"
Li Chuan heard something else from Chang Xiao's words, and he asked: "How did you answer? And has His Majesty really decided to slay the demon?"
Chang Xiao said: "I agreed at the time. If my father said that, it should be true. By the way, my father also said that there were some clues about what you asked him to investigate last time. He asked me to ask you and Wen Taoist priest will go to his home and he will tell you personally."
Li Chuan said: "Okay, I can do it any day. As for Taoist priest Wen, he has been in the capital recently and will go back in the evening. Ask him when he is free. If you have nothing else to do today, just stay with me and go back together in the evening. "
Chang Xiao said, "Okay." He looked over again. The sword on the table asked: "Can Daozhang Wen's sword still be mended?"
"It's a little troublesome." Li Chuan pointed to the cracks on the sword and said, "There are a lot of things mixed in it, which affects When it came time for me to repair it, I had to pick it out one by one. And then I realized that this ruby was not an ordinary gem, but such a large one. Daozhang Wen said that we had to wait for the opportunity."
< br>He said: "There is no rush anyway. I will study some cracks these days. By the way, if you want to lead the Yunshan Army, I will go to Xuanyan Mountain from time to time these days."
"Eh? Is it Mr. Li who is responsible for training soldiers in Qintian Supervisor?" Chang Xiao was surprised.
"What's my job? I'm here to keep the soldiers' spirits up," Li Chuan denied, saying, "You see, I seem to be in good spirits lately, right?"
"Quite. Okay." Chang Xiao agreed.
“When it comes to suppressing demons, we just don’t know which of these big demons are in collusion with Dragon King Gun.” Li Chuan said, “Did you know that King Gun Dragon left the palace? I really don’t know that Your Majesty is. What do you think, do you want to give up this world to monsters? "
Chang Xiao said: "Actually... to put it mildly, there is no suitable person except King Gun Long."
"Isn't it?" Li Chuan recalled for a moment and said, "Aren't there several side branches? Can't you pick out a normal person?"
Chang Xiao said, "They might not be as good as Gun Dragon King. "
Then Chang Xiao and Li Chuan discussed the current situation in detail. He said: "When Your Majesty succeeded to the throne, she cleaned up the royal bloodline. She will not let go of any threat. Yes. This behavior has been going on for more than 20 years, and it has only gotten better in the past ten years."
He said: "And King Sulong... is the third son of His Majesty's younger brother, Prince Chun. It is said that the relationship with Prince Chun has always been very good. Prince Chun passed away eight years ago, and His Majesty held his coffin. Prince Su, however, seems to have been by His Majesty's side after he turned three years old. Everyone knows that he will be the throne in the future. His.”
Li Chuan asked: “Where are Prince Chun’s other sons?”
Chang Xiao said: "They all died for Your Majesty."
It has been almost three months since Li Chuan came to Beijing. People who are familiar with him are either not interested in these things or do not get involved. It's not easy for him to discuss this with other people he doesn't know well.
Finally, Chang Xiao, a noble man who grew up in the capital, came. After he finished explaining, Li Chuan had some vague ideas about royal matters.
He said puzzledly: "Then why did Dragon King Gang collude with the big demon? Can't he just wait?"
Chang Xiao said: "Then I don't know."
