Xijing Sitianjian, Jianzheng issued an order that all Sitianjian officials should stop monitoring all magic weapons in the inner city of Xijing on time at Zishi, and stop recording everything that happens in the inner city until Choushi.
After this order was passed on, Si Tianjian Wu Guan Ling Tai Lang, Chief Secretary, Bao Zhangzheng, Chu Huzheng, Jian Hou, Si Li, Si Chen, Doctor, and a group of small officials without official positions stopped urging the people who monitored the inner city. Various magic weapons, such as the seismograph, armillary sphere, all-seeing sphere, heavenly book, earthly book and other treasures, as well as the spirits of the earth, the ghosts and gods of the earth, were also ordered to rest.
At the same time, Gongtian Mansion also issued a secret order that all the government officials would not be on duty tonight and go home to rest. Gongtian Mansion would not know anything about anything that happened in the inner city and would not ask anything about it. After hearing this, all the government officials in the government office were awe-inspiring and returned home.
At the same time, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion guarding the inner city were also summoned, with their guns pointing outwards, and they were not allowed to fire a single shot into the inner city, nor were they allowed to step into the inner city.
A series of secret orders were passed on quietly, without any movement. The officials of each government also fell asleep, and the inner city remained as quiet and harmonious as before. There are official roads everywhere in the inner city of Xijing, and there are no civilian alleys. The roads are smooth and convenient for driving. But it was already midnight, and there were no carriages or chariots on the streets.
The sound of the watchman also disappeared, and no barking of dogs could be heard.
On the Qianyang Street leading to the Chen Mansion, there were a few more figures, none other than Shuixuanzhi, the chief minister of the Fuzheng Pavilion, Qin Su, the middle man on the left, and Fan Peng, the middle man on the right.
The three of them walked unhurriedly towards the Chen Mansion at the end of the road. They walked very lightly, because the inner city was full of mansions of high officials, each of whom was a third-rank official at the lowest level, and there was even an official residence of the Three Dukes and Zhu Guo. , it would be a little bad to alert these terrifying existences.
These official residences have long been plunged into darkness. There are no lights. Only the moonlight in the sky shines down, casting the shadows of the three people on the ground, only two or three feet long. Under the eaves of the street, in the shadow, a green sheep is leaning against the wall. He was muttering to himself while chatting with the door god of this mansion.
This mansion is a young master's residence, and the hanging door gods are naturally extraordinary. They are used to ward off evil spirits. Anyone who comes near will be beaten half to death by the two door gods. However, now the two door gods are lying on the ground, being knocked down. The four horses were tied up with their hooves tied together, unable to move.
They do sense evil spirits.
But the evil spirit was so strong that not only could they not be stopped, they were even beaten up.
"I told you that my target is not your home, but you refuse to listen and insist on beating me."
The Qingyang was still muttering, and when he caught a glimpse of Shui Xuanzhi and the others, his sheep's ears straightened up, and he walked out of the shadows and said with a smile: "Little Chen Tang is right, something is really going on. You three little guys, give it to Grandpa Qingyang." Stay!" Shui Xuanzhi, Qin Su, and Fan Peng stopped and looked to the other side of the street. They saw a delicate young woman standing in the shadow, holding a flower basket in her hand, looking at them with a smile. .
"The Six Great Evils of the Five Lakes, Chen Yindu, Qingyang, Du Yiran, Hu Xiaoliang, Qiao Zhuo and Sha Qiutong."
Shui Xuanzhi said calmly, "Qiao Zhuo lives in Danan Lake and keeps bees, Du Yiran carves monuments in Huangshi Mountain, and Chen Yin is dead and went to the underworld to become a demon. Of the six evil people, only Luo, who killed his son and was abandoned by others, is left. The Sha Qiutong, the Sha Qiutong, was seriously injured and died, and turned into an evil Qingyang, and Hu Xiaoliang, who was hiding in the realm of ghosts and gods and was greedy for life and afraid of death. The three of them clung to their last breaths and hugged each other for warmth. When the Rakshasa Girl and Xie Chong Qingyang arrived, the other one was greedy for life and afraid of death. Hu Xiaoliang should be here too, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a nine-tailed fox walked out from the eaves above Granny Sha's head, walked towards this side along the wall, and said, "Are you the chief historian of Fuzheng Pavilion? You know a lot." Shui Xuanzhi Smiling slightly, he said: "I have always known Sanren very well. Since I knew that the three of you would come to block my way, how could I not be prepared?"
As he said this, two middle-aged men came up from behind them, one on the left and one on the right. They had a wide body and a big belly. They had the unique pot belly and majestic body of military commanders. Their appearance was exactly the same, and there was a distinct light behind them. It is a realm of emptiness.
The two of them are the left and right commanders of the fifth military camp. They are both first-class officials in the imperial court and control hundreds of thousands of troops.
The two were born in the Xia family, one named Xia Fanghe and the other named Xia Shuying. They are from the same family, and they are two masters of the Huanxu Realm. Grandma Sha, Qingyang and Tianhu looked a little solemn, and their eyes fell on On the two governors.
Shui Xuanzhi and the others walked over by themselves, and Granny Sha and the others did not stop them. "Let me and I go down to the underworld to play!"
Granny Sha stamped her feet, and the two worlds of Yin and Yang separated. The whole street sank and entered the underworld, while the Qianyang Street in the Yang world was still there, as if it was another street that had settled. - Since she regained her youth, her cultivation has become stronger! The two commanders, Xia Fanghe and Xia Shuoying, smiled slightly, each bloomed in the Void Realm, and stepped forward at the same time, crushing them with unparalleled momentum!
Shui Xuanzhi and the others walked dozens of steps forward, and a wooden wheelchair stopped in the middle of the road. Sitting in the wheelchair was a white-faced eunuch with no beard, looking at the three people walking towards him with a smile. "Jinshan Sanren Shui Xuanzhi, I have heard of his name for a long time."
Eunuch Feng Tianhuan sat in a wheelchair and said with a smile, "You are the youngest among Sanren. You entered the realm of returning to the void at the age of forty-three, right? You are fifty-one this year. In just eight years, you successfully broke through and entered the Mahayana. Realm. Your speed is too fast. There are very few geniuses in the world who can surpass you. What benefits did the master give you, so that you assist him so loyally? "
Shui Xuanzhi did not answer and thought to himself: "Feng Tianhuan, the eunuch of the palm seal, is also the governor of the East Factory. He has been fighting against the thirteen aristocratic families alone for many years. Eleven years ago, he was injured by Chen Yindu and became disabled. Seventeen months ago, In connivance with Prince Xiao and his grandson to steal the Jade Seal of the West King, eight months ago, Xiaowu, the creator, came to Beijing and resigned from his position as the eunuch of the palm print and the governor of the East Factory."
Eunuch Feng was surprised and said: "You know a lot. But you don't want to slander others and allow Prince Xiao to steal the jade seal. Our family has never done such a thing!"
Shui Xuanzhi said coldly: "Eunuch Ma, you are a bad chess wife, and you still want to use the world as a chess game to compete with the thirteen aristocratic families. You should think that after you get down from your position, you will never go back." His There were footsteps behind me.
The new governor of the East Factory, Yan Shuangtian, and the new eunuch Bai Sihai came over.
These two great eunuchs are extremely powerful and powerful. Moreover, they are also the adopted sons of Eunuch Feng.
Eunuch Feng has no descendants, so he likes to accept godsons. These two are his most valued godsons, the earliest people to follow him, and the people he trusts the most!
Eunuch Feng's face changed slightly, his eyes fell on Yan Shuangtian and Bai Sihai, he frowned and said: "Shuangtian, Sihai, you should know the meaning of the existence of us eunuchs. Without us eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, the Thirteenth Family would have been the king and hegemony long ago. .Eunuchs are also the only way out for those of us with bad backgrounds. To seek refuge in the Thirteenth Family is to jeopardize your future!"
Yan Shuangtian smiled and said: "Godfather, we are not seeking refuge with the Thirteenth Family, but with the True King."
Bai Sihai also smiled: "Godfather, you have stayed in our position for too long. It's time to step down and give way to others. Where do you want your sons to sit if you want to come back?"
Eunuch Feng's face turned gloomy, and he suddenly smiled and said: "Okay, you are all good. As long as you don't take refuge in the Thirteenth Family, Dongchang and us eunuchs, there is still a need for your existence." Shui Xuanzhi took Qin Su and Fan Peng walked past him, and Eunuch Feng did not stop him. He let them pass and his eyes fell on the two unfilial sons.
"Daddy, what you taught us is outdated."
Yan Shuangtian suddenly rushed over and said with a smile, "We learned better from Young Master!" Bai Sihai hid behind him, the two of them staggered, and went straight to Eunuch Feng!
Eunuch Feng sighed, stood up from the wheelchair, and sneered: "I teach students according to their aptitude, and what I pass on to you is the best!"
Shui Xuanzhi and the others continued to move forward. At this time, they saw a pair of golden boy and girl standing on the street. The man was handsome, with a jade tree facing the wind, and the woman was dressed in bright red, with a beautiful appearance and an proud figure. "Prince Xiao and Sun , Jin Hongying."
Shui Xuanzhi smiled slightly and said, "Prince Xiao, are you worthy of being a member of the Zhu family? The young master is of the same generation as you, and is a member of the Zhu family. It is his duty to revive the royal family and revitalize Xinzhou, but you are cheating on others and helping outsiders! If you have any chance at all, I am proud, so I hand over the Xiwang Jade Seal to the young master!"
Xiao Wangsun looked calm: "The emperor is not in a hurry, why should the dead eunuch be in a hurry? What does our Zhu family's affairs have to do with you?"
Shui Xuanzhi's face darkened, and his eyes fell on Jin Hongying: "Jin Wuchen, you have indeed betrayed the Shenji Camp. Women who are officials are still easily disturbed by love." Jin Hongying rolled his eyes at him with joy and said with a smile: "What love? ?No! You don’t want to slander anyone!”
Shui Xuanzhi snorted and walked out of the alley with two admirals, who were their immediate superiors in the Shenji Battalion. Xiao Wangsun raised his eyebrows and said: "Without the cannons of the Shenji Battalion, you two are no match for me. .”
The two admirals each sneered and walked forward. The left admiral Ma Weimin said calmly: "Prince Xiao, you are making rapid progress. But how fast can you do it? How much of the true king's secret skills have you learned?" Jin Hongying said excitedly: "Xiao, After solving these two admirals, we will be friends in the Shenji Camp! Even if we really get along, no one will dare to gossip!" Shui Xuanzhi took Qin Su and Fan Peng to bypass Xiao , Jin duo, continue to move forward.
Ahead, outside the gate of Chen Mansion, there was a chariot parked, which belonged to the Chief Assistant Zhang Fuzheng. Facing this chariot, Shui Xuanzhi did not dare to speak.
He can talk eloquently to anyone, but Zhang Fuzheng, the chief minister, does not dare to speak nonsense. The chief minister of the cabinet, the first person under the true king, and the supreme power in Xiniu Xinzhou! Even if he is Being in the Mahayana realm, facing such a powerful person, he felt a little frightened. He bowed down and waited quietly.
Yan Xianzhi, the former chief minister of the cabinet, walked slowly and came to the carriage. Zhang Fuzheng opened the door himself and invited him in.
Yan Xianzhi slowly got into the car, bowed and walked into the car.
Shui Xuanzhi breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking forward, arriving at the door of Chen's mansion. Qin Su stepped forward and pushed the door, but it was not closed and opened immediately.
The three of them walked into Chen's mansion and saw that the front yard was not big, only the living room, two side rooms and the kitchen. As the right minister and a third-rank official, this kind of mansion was a bit small.
In the living room, Chen Tang was sitting upright, with tea sets placed in front of the table, drinking tea. There was a simple sword on the table, unsheathed.
"You stay outside." Shui Xuanzhi ordered Qin, Su and Fan Peng. They stopped, stood outside the living room, and waited quietly.
Shui Xuanzhi walked over to the table, pulled out a round stool and sat down. Chen Tang poured tea for him.
Shui Xuanzhi picked up the tea cup, looked at the water in the cup, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen is known as the king of accommodation. He accommodated all his opponents in the joint examination. I really want to talk about your opponent at that time, now the cabinet minister Fei Zhong Please invite Master Fei to come out, but I expected that Master Fei was no match for you back then and is no match for you today, so I did not invite him."
Chen Tang's face was as before, and he still smiled and said: "Master Fei's cultivation has improved rapidly. After all, he belongs to a noble family. He has practiced the secret skills in Chen Zhang Ji Lu. The further he goes, the more profound his cultivation is. How can I be so virtuous and capable? We can only fight to a draw with him." Shui Xuanzhi smiled and said: "If you can fight to a draw with me, I will turn around and leave."
Chen Tang said: "Your Excellency has cultivated to the Mahayana realm, it will be difficult for me to fight with you." "Try?" Shui Xuanzhi said with a smile.
Chen Tang said: "Then give it a try."
He suddenly drew his sword, and the moment the sword light flew out of the scabbard, the living room in the front yard of the Chen family seemed to become transparent. The sword light passed through the four walls of the living room, illuminating the inner city of Xijing! The people in the outer city who had not yet slept, The figure was stretched very long by the bright light, and the shadow of the building was also stretched into the distance!
This bright sword light caught Shui Xuanzhi's eyes. It was countless sword energies that formed a great void. It was hidden in the scabbard and refused to be revealed to others. Today, I drew my sword and filled the sky with the sword energy. Turn it into a stream of light and show it to him!
The Great Void Realm appeared behind Shui Xuanzhi. The Yuan Shen was integrated with the physical body, and the Great Void Realm was also integrated with the physical body. To achieve the unity of all things, the physical body was the Yuan Shen and the Great Realm. The power in the Great Realm was used for oneself. !This is the Mahayana realm, an almost immortal realm!
A realm that Chen Tang has yet to achieve!
Shui Xuanzhi raised his right hand and held the sword light with two fingers. The two of them sat at the table, motionless.
Chen Tang sheathed his sword, returned it to its sheath, and the sword light was inserted into the scabbard on the table, flowing like clouds and water. Shui Xuanzhi retracted his fingers, made a fist, raised the teacup with the other hand, and drank the tea in one gulp. He put down the teacup, Get up and go out, walking outside.
Qin Su and Fan Peng were puzzled and hurriedly followed him. Qin Su whispered: "Brother Tao, do you want to take action?" Fan Peng said: "Brother Tao, can he fight to a draw with you?"
Shui Xuanzhi shook his head slightly, his right hand trembled, and a stream of blood flowed down the gap between the index and middle fingers of his right hand, saying: "It's not a tie. He has been sacrificing the sword for too long, and he has been brewing this sword light, which hurt me." He Walk out of Chen Mansion.
Fan Peng hesitated and stopped: "I'm going to kill Chen Shi!"
Shui Xuanzhi shook his head and said, "Don't go. Although he was also injured, he still has the strength to kill you." Fan Peng frowned, suddenly turned around and ran into Chen's house.
"Shua——"
The bright sword light penetrated into the sky, and the light slowly disappeared. Qin Su waited for a moment, his face turned pale.
Fan Peng did not come out of Chen's house. "Go back."
Shui Xuanzhi exhaled a breath and said, "You were useless in the past. I don't know what other methods he has, but there is no trace of panic in his sword, which shows that his subsequent methods are like thunder, even more powerful than now. This situation." He walked towards the exhibition hall and said softly: "Young Master can only fight for himself."
Qin Su quickly followed him.
The next day, Chen Shi woke up from his trance and flew out of the small heavens.
Everything in the Chen Mansion was as usual, without any change, except that the maids and servants respected Chen Tang a lot. After breakfast, Chen Tang sent him to the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites.
"Xiao Shi, take the exam well!" Granny Sha and others ordered outside the door.
Chen Shi nodded and walked into the yamen. Looking back, he saw Chen Tang, Granny Sha, Eunuch Feng and others chatting happily. "They must be hiding something from me," Chen Shi said in his heart.
Chapter completed!
