Chapter 345
Tiance Mansion, this is the residence of the second prince Xin Wang, famous for being a forest of generals, the patrol battalion is under the jurisdiction of Xin Wang.

In the meeting room, Xin Wang Qin Chuan was discussing with his generals how to deal with the prince.

In the capital, it is well known that King Xin and the crown prince are incompatible. There are constant open and secret fights in the court, which is also acquiesced by the current emperor.

Qin Chuan was dressed in a python robe, with a resolute and handsome face, with a faint aura of wind around his body, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and he was nine feet tall.

"Now that my eldest brother is on good terms with that peak cultivator Suning, the situation is not optimistic. A cultivator, especially a cultivator who is only one step away from attaining Taoism and immortality, is of great importance, even if the national teacher wants to keep him , It is also necessary to destroy all of the capital."

Qin Chuan looked at the generals under his seat, and said with emotion: "This also means that we have fallen into a disadvantage. If there is no foreign aid, it is impossible to beat the big brother without accidents!"

Jiang Xinwang's chief aide, Jiang, has no way of doing anything, even if he is extremely clever, but a peak monk cannot be calculated at all.

The other generals also bowed their heads in silence.

In fact, there is not much difference between a warrior and a monk in terms of combat power, and even a warrior is even better, but a peak monk cannot be regarded as a peak warrior.

At this moment, the steward of the palace suddenly ran in and reported respectfully: "My lord, Pei Meiren is hosting a banquet in Yuxiu Palace, and I invite you to come to the banquet tonight when you are on garrison."

After the manager finished speaking, he resigned and left.

Qin Chuan looked at the generals, frowned, and said, "Pei Meiren, a slut, isn't going to accompany my father to overturn the rain and turn the clouds, what's the purpose of hosting a banquet?"

A general guessed: "It may be to deal with the prince."

"Oh!" Qin Chuan's eyes flashed.

The general analyzed slowly: "My lord, the crown prince has been persuading the emperor to favor Pei Meiren all the time. To the emperor, this may just be the prince's filial piety, but to Pei Meiren, it is different."

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "Go ahead."

That military commander is both civil and military, and his eloquence is even more top-notch, "The emperor is greedy for sex now, even if his body is made of iron, he can't stand the toss every day. Therefore, Miss Pei must be more afraid of the prince than the prince. In case the emperor dies one day, the prince will have more than enough to protect himself, but Meimei Pei may be sent directly to the emperor to be buried by the prince."

"It makes sense. It seems that this king has to go to this banquet."

Qin Chuan had a brilliant smile on his face, it would be good to have one more ally.

Especially the person next to the father's pillow, if the wind blows in the ear, even if the father still trusts the eldest brother, the gap will inevitably exist.

Peak cultivators cannot intervene in the affairs of the dynasty. This is a rule jointly established by the four immortal sects. That is to say, Suning can help the elder brother, but he cannot deal with himself.

At night, Yuxiu Palace is filled with the fragrance of flowers. These flowers are all stamens that never existed in the Longyuan Dynasty, and they will never wither. It seems to be some secret method or demon method.

King Xin came to the banquet alone.

At the banquet, the lights were brightly lit, and there were not many people attending the banquet. Except for a few princesses, Qin Chuan didn't know anyone. During the conversation, he heard that it was Pei Meiren.

Pei Meiren did not attend the banquet, and the person who hosted the banquet was Pei Meiren's personal maid, a young girl with a beautiful and beautiful face, her skin was as white and tender as freshly baked tofu.

Qin Chuan was served by a maid and sat on the main seat.

Rather than saying that this is a banquet, it is better to say that it is a reception of Yinggeyanwu.

Qin Chuan is not a vulgar martial artist, so he naturally knows how to be compassionate and cherish jade, let alone a little beauty like Pei Meiren's maid Tianxiang.

However, Pei Meiren's delay in arriving always gave him an ominous premonition.

Wufu's perception of crisis is not inferior to that of a monk, and even more acute for a warrior like him on the iron-blooded battlefield.

All of a sudden, Tianxiang's movements gradually slowed down, and so did the others, getting slower and slower, until finally they looked like a still painting.

"who is it?"

Qin Chuan immediately got up and was on guard.

He naturally knew that this was a formation set up by a peak cultivator to isolate Yuxiu Palace.

The national teacher has already wandered around, so naturally no one can notice it.

At this moment, a red dress came into Qin Chuan's eyes like flames.

The plump and mature delicate body is like a ripe peach, coupled with an extremely charming and beautiful face, it is overwhelming.

However, Qin Chuan is not a lustful person like his father, so he said indifferently: "Mei Pei has good means."

Behind Pei Meiren was a young monk who closed his eyes and twirled a string of blood-colored agate-like beads.

"You're a vixen." Qin Chuan was a little surprised when he saw the furry thing hanging down behind Pei Meiren's dress.

Everyone in the entire capital said that Pei Meiren was charming, but they didn't expect it to be true.

"Who are you?"

Qin Chuan looked coldly.

That monk's cultivation is really unfathomable, and Pei Meiren's evil spirit is too strong, which is a thorn in his side for a pure martial artist like him.

"It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is you, do you want to take the throne?" Pei Meiren smiled sweetly, her face blooming like a flower.

Qin Chuan was unmoved and said: "Even if this king covets the position of the crown prince, he will take it upright. Wouldn't it be ridiculous to join hands with you, a witch."

Pei Meiren covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Does the lord think you can win? Now that the crown prince has controlled the civil servant group, and even got the support of the Sheji Academy of the Longyuan Dynasty, Wen ruled martial arts, and now the situation in the court tends to be stable. Guo Wu, you cannot deny this."

Qin Chuan frowned, but he couldn't refute.

This is indeed true.

Even if the father supported him to compete with his eldest brother, it was just to prevent his eldest brother from monopolizing the power.

The prince is still the prince, and he is in control of the civil service group. As long as he doesn't make any mistakes, no matter how hard he tries, he can't shake his elder brother's position as the prince.

Pei Meiren narrowed her red phoenix eyes, and said in a charming way: "Looking at the prince's appearance, he must know his situation, so joining forces with us is your only hope at present."

"How can I trust you?"

"My lord doesn't need to trust us, we will remove some thorns in your eyes as a gift."

"You guys are a little scary!"

Qin Chuan sighed slightly.

He found that he seemed to have been placed in the torrent, unable to extricate himself, even if he didn't want to be involved, he had to be involved.

"How can you help me?" Qin Chuan asked.

The young monk said: "You don't need to worry about this, the poor monk will remove all obstacles for you. As long as the crown prince is unable to control the situation, then you can turn the tide, and then, whether it is the court or the people, your popularity will be firmly suppressed." Prince, at that time, you will be the only one above the court."

It's true that Qin Chuan is ambitious, but it doesn't mean that he is willing to hand over the magic weapon of the country to the evildoers. He doubted: "You guys are so kind? There must be a conspiracy. This king has killed many evildoers in the battlefield. Make any loss-making business."

Pei Meiren applauded: "My lord, you guessed right, but our purpose is actually the same as yours, both of which are to eradicate the prince. Our purpose cannot be fully revealed to you, but I can guarantee that it will only benefit you And harmless."

"That depends on what strength you have?"

Qin Chuan's figure suddenly disappeared in place.

next moment.

In front of Pei Meiren, a punch came fiercely.

This fist is like a gold and iron horse, powerful and mighty, with a bloody murderous intent, it directly tore the prohibition set by the young monks, and spread out one after another, and the hair of those who were pinned was slightly raised rise.

Bang!
A red Buddhist bead suddenly appeared in front of Pei Meiren, and quickly grew in size, like a watermelon, blocking Qin Chuan's murderous punch.

Qin Chuan only felt that all his fist energy was absorbed by that Buddhist bead.

Moreover, the Buddha Bead did not stop absorbing his true energy, but absorbed it more ferociously.

Qin Chuan yelled violently, and immediately withdrew his fist and energy to block the absorption power of the Buddhist beads.

With a bang, Qin Chuan took five steps back, and all the black floor tiles in the hall collapsed.

The bead also gradually shrank, and after returning to its original shape, it flew back into the young monk's bead.

The young monk smiled freely, his smile was like a breeze, and the sun was rising, full of the breath of life.

Pei Meiren looked at Qin Chuan with a smile, and asked, "I wonder if the prince is satisfied?"

The smug look on her face was beyond words.

Qin Chuan sighed sadly, and said weakly: "It seems that you have been prepared for a long time. If I refuse, will you make me lose everything today?"

Pei Meiren shook her head and said, "How could it be? You are the most important pawn to me. As long as you are obedient, we will leave the Longyuan Dynasty after Wei Jiujiu's Shanhe Tower is built."

"Really?" Qin Chuan didn't believe it, but he was overjoyed.

Pei Meiren nodded.

Qin Chuan felt relieved and began to accept this matter. Looking at the young monk, he asked curiously, "Even if you are a peak monk, are you really Suning's opponent?"

The young monk smiled wryly and said, "Su Ning is a man with the best swordsmanship. Even Liu Yunzhou may not be his opponent. Unless Wei Changjiu makes a move, there may be a [-]% chance of winning, not to mention that Wei Jiujiu appreciates it very much. Suning even gave him his sword-raising gourd and sword-raising formation."

"Then how are you sure that I can beat the prince?"

"As long as I swallow all the dragon energy of your father, then within two hours, I can compete with Suning."

Qin Chuan asked uncertainly, "A fight for the top?"

The young monk sighed: "That's right, good luck hurts both sides, bad luck, Suning was seriously injured, and I lost my life, but that is enough to make Suning lose [-]% of his cultivation. At that time, he can be slaughtered by you."

"You are so kind?" Qin Chuan questioned.

Pei Meiren walked to Qin Chuan's side at this time, leaned lazily on his body, and exhaled like blue: "For the sake of the future, he regards death as home, not to mention, even if he dies, as long as Shanhelou has accumulated enough luck, then He can be resurrected and be with the Longyuan Dynasty."

"Beauty tricks are useless to me." Qin Chuan said calmly.

"really?"

Pei Meiren took three steps back and said with a charming smile, "Do you want to know what's under my dress?"

Qin Chuan's eyes were bright and he said: "No wonder Father said that you are seducing others even if you do nothing."

He smiled and walked over, waved and slapped Pei Meiren across the face.

Pei Meiren was a little dazed as she clutched the red mark on her cheek that was still hot and painful.

Is this guy as good as Long Yang?
After a while, Qin Chuan gave the answer, "And I will definitely be able to seduce you."

Pei Meiren understood, and said with a charming smile: "It turns out that our Lord God of War still likes to play this trick."

The young monk turned and left, the restriction of Yuxiu Palace was still there.

……

In the Kyoto government office, above the lobby, someone was beating drums.

After the yamen servant opened the door, he was taken aback, hurriedly entered to report, and then respectfully led those people into the lobby.

"Ascension hall."

"mighty."

Zhou Shengsheng, governor of the capital, asked the case, but the expression on his face was ugly, and there was no other reason.

The person who beat the drum in the hall was the manager of Tiance Mansion, followed by the soldiers of the patrol battalion. The person who took down seemed to be a staunch supporter of the prince, Bao Mian, the only son of the Grand Scholars of Longyuan Pavilion.

The status of the prefect of Kyoto is actually very embarrassing, the official position is only the fourth rank, which is different from the prefect of the imperial capital of the Sword Dynasty.

In Kyoto, there are many officials of the second and third ranks, and even the first ranks are all gathered here. This also makes Zhou Sheng's position a bit thankless. If he accidentally offends one party, this position will become unstable.

It is not too much to say that we are walking on thin ice.

This also made Zhou Sheng feel trembling every time he handled official duties, as if he was facing an abyss.

The steward of the palace smiled and said, "Lord Zhou, Bao Mian caused trouble after drinking, and even killed three civilians on horseback. I don't know how to deal with it according to the law?"

There is something in the words, the meaning is obvious, it's up to you.

Zhou Sheng was taken aback, and killed himself.

However, Bao Longtu, a senior scholar, is the core figure of the prince's family. If he is not handled properly and the prince becomes the throne in the future, then he will be ruined after the liquidation.

However, King Xin should not be underestimated, and he has mastered most of the military power of the Longyuan Dynasty. It is easy to deal with him.

what can we do about it?

Generally speaking, the governor of the capital is held by the crown prince or the prince. In addition, it will also be held by the scholar of Longyuan Pavilion, so that he can withstand the pressure of all parties. The fight is too serious, which reduces the terms of office of the Governor of Kyoto.

Zhou Sheng was in a dilemma, so he had no choice but to order Bao Mian to be imprisoned, and then went to investigate the crime scene.

Even though the stewards of the palace had brought witnesses and physical evidence, Zhou Sheng still insisted on investigating the scene.

The steward of the palace nodded in satisfaction, and left with the soldiers of the patrol battalion.

After Zhou Sheng surveyed the crime scene, he finished the trial of the case overnight, and then handed over the key testimony and evidence to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

In this way, neither the king of Xin nor the prince would be offended.

……

"Father's woman, I can't replace her at any time."

When he walked out of the imperial city, Qin Chuan was still reminiscing about Mrs. Pei's style.

That kind of feeling is beyond the reach of ordinary women.

"Big brother, what is better than me, in terms of martial arts, art of war, and governing the country?" Xin Wang Qinchuan said with disdain, "Isn't it just that he looks very similar to the father when he was young, and he pleases the father? The eldest son, plus he is good at winning people's hearts, otherwise when will the throne be his turn?"

The idea of ​​seizing the heirloom is ready to come out.

The most ruthless imperial family!

……

"Prince, this old man is just such a son, you must help this old minister!"

Just as Qin Chong was dealing with government affairs in the East Palace, he heard Bao Longtu rush in with tears streaming down his face, knelt down with a plop, and begged.

Bao Longtu was Qin Chong's hardcore supporter, and he held a pivotal position among the civil servants of the Longyuan Dynasty. His students were all over the government and the public. He naturally stepped down immediately, helped Bao Longtu sit up, and spoke slowly.

After listening to Bao Longtu's cry, Qin Chong frowned.

There is nothing to say about killing people for their lives, but Bao Longtu is too important to him, he can easily control the civil servants group, and he has contributed a lot.

He can't do such a thing as killing a donkey.

It's just that the law is majestic, even if he is the prince, without the consent of the emperor, he can't be touched.

Immediately summoned the staff to discuss.

……

"Prince, this case is not without chance. Fortunately, it was at night, and the witnesses were only soldiers from the patrol battalion, and Zhou Sheng also left flaws in his testimony that day. The Ministry of Criminal Justice can retry the case. The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped."

"I can save the dog's life, the old minister is already very grateful."

"Second brother is really going too far. It seems that we can't be too polite. Didn't the crown prince attend Pei Meiren's banquet last night? Bao Xueshi, you immediately let your students attack second brother, saying that he..."

……

The prince's virtuous hall, literati are unparalleled.

King Xin's Tiance Mansion is full of military generals.

The two of them have one article and one military, and they are like fire and water.

The word check and balance seems to be foreseeable in the court of any dynasty.

But do trade-offs really exist?
Probably not, they just cancel each other out.
