Chapter 149 Returning to the Heavenly Master's Mansion

After Zhu Youning left, Zhong Xiaokui looked coldly at Li Cunren who was kneeling on one knee.

"Get up, the prince said, you will follow me to do things from now on."

Li Cunren stood up, then cupped his fists towards Zhong Xiaokui.

"This subordinate has met Mr. Zhong."

Zhong Xiaokui glanced at Li Cunren, and said: "Although I don't know why you joined the prince's command, if you dare to have second thoughts, I will solve you without the prince's help."

"Subordinates dare not have second thoughts." Li Cunren's tone was very respectful.

Zhong Xiaokui's expression didn't fluctuate when he heard this.

"Let's go. There are many ambitious people in Hongzhou City. The Shadow Secret Guard's duty is to find them and deal with them."

So the two left silently, one after the other.

At this time, Zhu Youning had arrived at the Heavenly Master Mansion in Xuanwu Mountain.

This time when going to the Tianshi Mansion, Zhu Youning did not bring any soldiers, what he was afraid of was fighting with the Tianshi Mansion.

Of course, Zhu Youning wasn't afraid of the Tianshi Mansion itself, but that doing so would do more harm than good.

Religion, if used properly, can become a social force that stabilizes people's hearts and improves morality.

If the Tianshi Mansion can express its stance to belong to Liang Guo, then the turmoil underneath will be much less, and the appeasement work will be much easier.

After arriving at the gate of Tianshi Mansion, Zhu Youning immediately stopped and watched.

In front of you is a magnificent gate house with high walls on both sides.

Inside the wall, only some hanging mountains and roofs can be vaguely seen.

There is a plaque on the top of the gate in the middle of the wall, with three words written: Tianshi Mansion.

In front of the door stood two guards who looked like Taoists. After seeing Zhu Youning, they became a little wary.

Zhu Youning stepped forward and cupped his hands slightly.

"Thank you for your trouble, Zhu Youning is here to visit the Tianshi Mansion."

The two Taoist priests looked at each other and ran towards the door.

After a while, the door suddenly opened slowly!
Suddenly, a group of servants and people dressed as Taoist priests of the Heavenly Master's Mansion poured out from behind the door and stood on both sides.

Not only that, they all held weapons in their hands.

The leader is still a woman.

This woman is Xu Huan, the real person offering wine to the Tianshi Mansion.

Zhu Youning had naturally met Xu Huan many times, but this was the first time seeing her in his real identity.

At this moment, Xu Huan seemed to be different from the physically and mentally exhausted woman in Zhu Youning's impression, she seemed to be more energetic.

A yellow silk scarf was tied around Xu Huan's neck, and he was wearing a special off-white nun's gown. The dark clothes made his skin whiter.

The tailor-made taoist robe seemed to be very soft in silk, and the chest line was more plump when it was pressed against the body, and the figure was also very attractive.

But the inherent religious attribute of the Taoist robe gave her a bit of dignity.

At this time, Xu Huan's clear eyes showed a trace of hostility.

Zhu Youning was not surprised by Xu Huan's hostility.

Because there was indeed a grievance between them.

Decades ago, Zhu Wen sent the Xuanming Sect to besiege the Tianshi Mansion, and it was that siege that led to the Tianshi Mansion being taken advantage of by Li Siyuan, causing the tragedy of his wife and children.

Therefore, the hostility in Xu Huan's eyes at this time was actually aimed more at Liang Guo.

"I don't know what the King An of the Liang Kingdom is doing when he comes to the Tianshi Mansion?"

In front of the big enemy, Xu Huan actually had a steady posture and a steady voice, appearing very confident and calm.

Zhu Youning looked at the Taoist priests who were waiting in full force around him, and said calmly: "It seems a little inappropriate for Xu Zhenren to treat guests like this. This king came this time with good intentions."

"Goodwill? What goodwill?"

Xu Huan looked at Zhu Youning warily.

"Really Xu Bingxue is smart, and he can definitely sort out his thoughts in his heart."

Zhu Youning said indifferently: "Although there was a conflict between Daliang and Tianshi's mansion decades ago, in the end, I, Daliang, did not take advantage of the danger and wiped out Tianshi's mansion. Otherwise, you think that you have lost Tianshi's mansion, How long can you last under the iron hooves of my girder?"

Hearing this, Xu Huan said calmly: "Can Liang Guo have such good intentions? The reason why you dare not attack Tianshi Mansion is because Xuanwu Mountain is the territory of Wu Guo! Your Liang Guo's army can't get through!"

Zhu Youning asked back, "Then why are you calling now?"

Xu Huan stopped talking immediately.

At this moment, Zhu Youning looked at Xu Huan seriously, and said, "Master Xu should know who the biggest enemy of Tianshi Mansion is now! That person is still alive!"

Xu Huan heard this, thoughtfully said: "What do you know?"

"I know what you want to know."

Zhu Youning said calmly: "I said, this time I came here with good intentions."

Xu Huan thought for a long time, finally gritted his teeth, leaned his upper body slightly forward, stretched out his hand and said, "His Royal Highness, please."

Zhu Youning clasped his fists calmly and said, "I'm bothering you."

So, Zhu Youning followed Xu Huan into the gate of Tianshi Mansion.

This was the first time he entered Tianshi Mansion from the main entrance.

After entering Tianshi Mansion, Zhu Youning found that not only the environment of Tianshi Mansion is very quiet and elegant, but also the construction pattern is completely different from ordinary mansions.

It is not an ordinary courtyard pattern, and it is faintly in line with the arrangement of Jiugong Bagua.

It's just that Zhu Youning didn't know his true face in Lushan Mountain, and for a while, Zhu Youning didn't understand how the architectural layout of the Tianshi Mansion was arranged.

It can only be said that it really deserves to be a Taoist holy place.

Soon Xu Huan brought Zhu Youning to a room, which was undoubtedly a pill room.

The so-called alchemy room does not refer to the room where alchemy is made, but generally refers to the Taoist priest's own house.

The coffee table placed in the room is in an antique style.

After Xu Huan invited Zhu Youning to take a seat, he also sat aside.

After a while, a maid came up to make tea.

After the tea was brewed, Xu Huan also started to get down to business.

"His Royal Highness King An came to my Tianshi mansion this time, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Xu Zhenren, the Tianshi Mansion is a holy land of Taoism, but now it is in decline because of the death of the Tianshi Master. This king is here to save the Tianshi Mansion."

"Save? How?"

"As long as Tianshi Mansion surrenders to Daliang, Daliang will give Tianshi Mansion protection."

Xu Huan said coldly: "Thank you for your kindness, but the Tianshi Mansion doesn't need it."

"No, you need it. After all, your Tianshi Mansion still has a serious problem."

Xu Huan was silent when he heard this.

But Zhu Youning continued: "This confidant's serious trouble is Li Siyuan!"

"It seems you know a lot."

Xu Huan looked at Zhu Youning and said calmly.

"However, in the past two years, Li Siyuan has not appeared in Xuanwu Mountain."

"It's only two years without any danger, so can you take it lightly?" Zhu Youning asked immediately.

Afterwards, he said again: "As long as your Tianshi Mansion is willing to submit to Daliang, then Daliang will protect your Tianshi Mansion from Li Siyuan's assassination. What's more, the Tianshi Mansion has been passed down for hundreds of years. If it is destroyed by you , I’m afraid it’s hard to explain, right?”

These words sounded a little threatening, and Xu Huan's face suddenly sank.

She immediately stood up, looked at Zhu Youning seriously, and said word by word: "You don't need His Royal Highness An to worry about the affairs of the Tianshi Mansion! If His Royal Highness An came here for this matter, please go back!"
