When Cao Zhengchun heard the words, he immediately knelt down, kowtowed and said, "I dare not speak."
Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly, and said, "If I want you to tell, just say it! Just forgive you for your innocence!"
Cao Zhengchun raised his head to look at Zhu Houzhao, and said, "My servant thinks that Shangguan Haitang is just a small secret agent of the big family, and she shouldn't have the courage to approach the storyteller who dares to provoke the majesty of the Tian family. I just don’t know if I want to investigate the storyteller, or make friends with the storyteller.”
Hearing Cao Zhengchun's words, Zhu Houzhao's expression turned extremely ugly!
Chapter 44 All Sides Calculating
Hulong Villa.
Shangguan Haitang stepped into the main hall, looked at the Marquis Tiedan who was sitting on the throne, and immediately bowed respectfully and said: "Haitang sees foster father!"
Tie Dan Shenhou looked deeply at Shangguan Haitang, and asked in a flat tone: "Haitang, I asked you to investigate Lu Yan, have you gained anything in Qixia Town these days?"
Hearing Tie Dan Shenhou's question, Shangguan Haitang couldn't help but change slightly, and she replied: "I...haven't gained anything."
Tie Dan Shenhou snorted coldly, and his tone of voice increased by three points, and asked: "Is there no harvest, or is there no investigation at all?"
Shangguan Haitang's expression changed again when he heard the words, and he quickly explained: "Please foster father to investigate clearly, it's not that Haitang didn't investigate, it's that he really didn't find anything!"
Tie Dan Shenhou shook his head and said, "I can believe your explanation, but the emperor may not believe it!"
emperor?
Shangguan Haitang was stunned for a moment, why did the emperor get involved in this matter?
Seeing that Shangguan Haitang was puzzled, Tiedan Shenhou explained: "Lu Yan and Ximen Chuixue had an appointment to fight on the top of the Forbidden City, which violated the majesty of the Tian family. Cao Zhengchun once spoke to the emperor and entrusted us with the punishment of Lu Yan. Hulong Villa will handle it, and I have already agreed to this matter."
Speaking of this, Tiedan Shenhou took a deep look at Shangguan Haitang, and said: "And you have been with Lu Yan day and night in Qixia Town, and you have already been watched by the people of Dongchang. The day before yesterday, Cao Zhengchun spoke to the emperor again, saying that we Hulong Villa intends to make friends with Lu Yan, what you did in Qixia Town is proof!"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Haitang immediately knelt down and loudly argued: "Father, I..."
Marquis Tiedan waved his hand, interrupted Shangguan Haitang, and said, "Okay, don't say any more. I believe that you, as the No. Betray the emperor."
While speaking, Tie Dan Shenhou walked to Shangguan Haitang's side and helped Shangguan Haitang up from the ground.
He took out a white medicine bag and handed it to Shangguan Haitang, saying: "This is a kind of poison carefully developed by the world's number one poison master. It is colorless, odorless, and melts in water. Even the top masters of the great master realm can't find any abnormalities. "
Shangguan Haitang looked at the white medicine bag, as if seeing a hot potato, and asked in surprise: "Father, what does this mean?"
Tie Dan Shenhou said lightly: "I want you to find a way to make Lu Yan swallow this pack of medicine, then capture him back, put him in the prison, and wait for the emperor to punish him!"
Although Shangguan Haitang had already thought of this possibility long ago, when she really heard the plan from Tie Dan Shenhou, her face couldn't help but become extremely ugly!
Seeing the change in Shangguan Haitang's face, Tie Dan Shenhou asked, "Why, you don't want to?"
Shangguan Haitang was startled when she heard the words, she quickly shook her head and said, "No, I just feel..."
Tie Dan Shenhou interrupted Shangguan Haitang again, and said: "Since it's not, then put away this pack of medicine and go to Qixia Town after the investigation of the envoy from the Izumo Kingdom is clear!"
Having said that, Tie Dan Shenhou paused for a while, and added: "The deadline is one month, it must be completed!"
……
Seven Heroes Town, Tongfu Inn.
In the room, Lu Yan sat cross-legged on the bed, slightly closed his eyes, and silently recited the entire chapter of "Da Huang Ting".
With the emergence of that mysterious and mysterious feeling, Lu Yan could also feel that the internal force in the dantian began to transform again.
And as more and more internal energy was transformed, his internal energy showed a significant improvement from the thickness to the power.
In the blink of an eye, half a day passed.
Lu Yan withdrew from the state of comprehension, opened his mouth and let out a breath of foul air slowly.
"After this practice, almost one-fifth of the internal force in my body has been transformed, and in another month, it should be completely transformed."
dong dong dong.
Just when Lu Yan thought so, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Yan glanced at the direction of the door and said, "Please come in."
The door was pushed open, and Lao Bai walked in from the outside. He glanced at Lu Yan and said, "Mr. Lu, there is someone outside who wants to see you."
Lu Yan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who is it?"
Lao Bai shook his head and replied, "I haven't seen it, I don't know it."
Lu Yan thought for a while, then got up and went out, wanting to see who the person who called to see him was.
In the lobby, a middle-aged man in black and beardless saw Lu Yan coming down the stairs, so he got up and said, "I have seen Mr. Lu."
When Lu Yan heard the high-pitched voice of the middle-aged man, he couldn't help frowning slightly. From the appearance and voice of the man, it was not difficult to judge that the other party was an eunuch.
Involuntarily, Lu Yan thought of Cao Zhengchun. He looked at the middle-aged man meaningfully and asked, "Did Cao Zhengchun ask you to come?"
The middle-aged eunuch didn't expect Lu Yan to see through his identity so quickly. After he was surprised, he glanced around and said softly, "Mr. Lu, can we talk privately?"
Lu Yan glanced at the other guests in the lobby, and then said to the middle-aged eunuch, "Come with me."
The middle-aged eunuch followed Lu Yan upstairs, and when he came to Lu Yan's room, the middle-aged eunuch immediately showed a bright smile on his face, and said, "The villain has long heard that Mr. Lu is unparalleled and powerful. , I saw you today, and it really lives up to its reputation."
Lu Yan waved his hand and said, "Don't say polite words. What is the purpose of Cao Zhengchun asking you to come to see me?"
The middle-aged eunuch lowered his head and said respectfully: "Captain Cao asked the villain to remind Mr. Lu that he must be careful of the people who protect the Dragon Villa, especially Shangguan Haitang!"
Lu Yan's face remained unchanged when he heard the words, and asked, "What does this mean?"
The middle-aged eunuch replied: "Mr. Lu may not know something, because the emperor was very angry about you and Ximen Chuixue's appointment to fight on the top of the Forbidden City. He ordered Hulong Villa to punish Mr. Lu half a month ago, and Shangguan Haitang approached you on purpose because of the secret order of God of Tiedan, the purpose is to investigate your origin and details, so as to plan to attack you."
Lu Yan smiled coldly and said, "Why should I believe your words? Don't forget, you sent people to assassinate me not long ago!"
The middle-aged eunuch smiled and said: "This is a misunderstanding, and it is also because of this misunderstanding that Dudu Cao specially sent a villain to inform you after he learned that Hulong Villa was going to harm you. You turned hostility into friendship."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged eunuch paused for a while, and then said: "Mr. Lu, in order to deal with you, Lord Tiedan specially invited the world's number one poison master to develop a colorless and tasteless poison. He wants to use Shangguan Haitang to poison you. You are poisoned!"
Chapter 45 Right and wrong
Lu Yan was unmoved when he heard the middle-aged eunuch's words, and asked, "How did Cao Zhengchun know about this?"
The middle-aged eunuch replied: "Captain Cao secretly bought many people from the No. [-] Village under heaven, and No. [-] Poison Master under Heaven is one of them."
After speaking, the middle-aged eunuch took out another porcelain bottle and said, "This is the antidote developed by the world's number one poison master after he developed the colorless and odorless poison."
After saying this, the middle-aged eunuch opened the porcelain bottle, poured some powder out of it, and swallowed it in his mouth.
Seeing the behavior of the middle-aged eunuch trying the medicine, Lu Yan smiled and said, "Cao Zhengchun asked you to report the news, is it just to turn hostility into friendship?"
The middle-aged eunuch smiled and said: "This is one, and the second is that Governor Cao wants to join forces with you to deal with God Lord Tiedan!"
Lu Yan shook his head and said, "I accept the matter of turning hostility into friendship. As for the matter of joining forces, let's talk about it later."
While speaking, Lu Yan took the porcelain bottle from the middle-aged eunuch's hand, and then said, "You can leave now."
The middle-aged eunuch originally wanted to say a lot, but when he saw Lu Yan order to chase away the guests, he didn't dare to say any more and turned to leave.
After the middle-aged eunuch left, Lu Yan glanced down at the porcelain vase in his hand, chuckled lightly, and said, "Cao Zhengchun, you and Zhu Wushi are playing Infernal Affairs, it's really close!"
……
Royal Palace.
"assassin!"
"There are assassins!"
In the garden, Cheng Shifei, who had just escaped from the ninth-floor prison, hid in the dark, watching the Ouchi guards who were searching for the assassin everywhere, and couldn't help sighing secretly.
"It's really unfortunate."
As he said that, Cheng Shifei turned his gaze to a bedroom not far away, and decided to enter the bedroom to hide for a while, and leave the palace after the search was over.
Cheng Shifei sneaked into the bedroom and was about to check the situation around when he heard someone coming in from the outside.
He quickly hid and carefully observed the situation outside.
It turned out that this was the bedroom of the emperor's younger sister, Princess Yunluo.
As for Princess Yunluo, although she is a golden branch and jade leaf, she just likes kung fu in the Jianghu, and especially likes to listen to the stories in the Jianghu. Every time the book of "In the Snow" has not been released, it must be sent to the palace first for her to read. Only after that can it be issued.
"This princess is so powerful in martial arts, how can I be afraid of mere assassins! I don't even need the protection of Cao Zhengchun, a dog!"
Princess Yunluo lost her temper in the palace and drove away Cao Zhengchun who came to look for the assassin.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Shifei, who was hiding in the dark, subconsciously wanted to stay away from Princess Yunluo, but he never thought that when he turned around, he touched a shelf beside him and made a noise, which attracted Princess Yunluo's attention.
Princess Yunluo performed lightness kung fu, quickly came to Cheng Shifei's side, and captured Cheng Shifei!
Princess Yunluo looked up and down the tattered Cheng Cheng and asked, "Are you that assassin?"
Cheng Shifei looked at Princess Yunluo, coughed, and said, "I'm just passing through the noble realm, not an assassin."
Princess Yunluo looked suspicious when she heard the words, looked at the handwriting on Cheng Shifei's arm, and asked, "Passing through the noble realm? Who are you? Also, what is the tattoo on your body?"
Cheng Shifei looked at Princess Yunluo's inexperienced appearance, his heart moved, and he said, "You say you are a generation of heroines, but you don't even know me?"
As he said that, Cheng Shifei pointed to his nose and boasted: "I'm nicknamed Boxer Sihai, Kyushu Island, Yushu Linfengmo, a complete girl, the most powerful top ten handsome men, a living dictionary of martial arts, a mighty dragon hero, Cheng Shifei! "
After introducing himself, Cheng Shifei lifted up his tattered sleeves and said to Princess Yunluo: "Look at the tattoos on my body, these are the martial arts secrets of the various schools of martial arts. If you can find some food for me Come on, fill my stomach, maybe I can teach you every move and a half when I am happy!"
Princess Yunluo curled her lips when she heard the words, and said, "I got you out with one move just now, you are bragging!"
Cheng Shifei was a little embarrassed, but fortunately he had a thick skin, so he thought of a countermeasure, and explained: "Just now I saw that you are quite smart and have a strange skeleton, so I wanted to test you and let you catch me on purpose. "
Princess Yunluo naturally didn't believe Cheng Shifei's nonsense, and the two fought again, and Cheng Shifei succeeded in subduing Princess Yunluo by relying on what he saw from Shaolin.
Princess Yunluo finally realizes the gap between herself and Cheng Shifei, and wants to learn martial arts from Cheng Shifei, but Cheng Shifei is naughty by nature and doesn't want to teach Princess Yunluo at all.
"Forget it, I won't ask you to learn martial arts. You tell me who your master is, and I will go to him to learn martial arts!"
Cheng Shifei curled his lips when he heard the words, and said: "My master has always traveled all over the world, it is very difficult to find him!"
Princess Yunluo asked: "Then who is your master?"
Cheng Shifei replied: "My master is an undefeated urchin!"
Princess Yunluo thought for a while and said, "Although this name sounds very powerful, why have I never heard of it?"
Cheng Shifei made up nonsense and said, "You haven't heard of my master's name, then you must have heard of my senior brother's name. He is the new great master who has become popular all over the world recently, the storyteller Lu Yan!"
Princess Yunluo's eyes lit up immediately when she heard Cheng Zhengfei's words, and said in great surprise: "Mr. Lu is your senior brother!"
Cheng Shifei didn't expect that he would believe Princess Yunluo when he said it casually. He simply lied to the end, coughed lightly and said, "That's right, Mr. Lu, the storyteller in Qixia Town, is my senior brother! If you take good care of me My uncle, once I am happy, maybe I will introduce you to my senior brother as an apprentice!"
Princess Yunluo immediately said happily after hearing the words: "Okay, okay, then we will leave the palace tomorrow and go to Qixia Town to find your senior brother!"
Cheng Shifei was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said, "Ah? Are you in such a hurry?"
Princess Yunluo's eyes immediately widened when she heard the words, and said: "Why, are you cheating the princess? Be careful that the princess kills your head!"
"Of course I didn't lie to you." Although Cheng Shifei was not afraid of Princess Yunluo, if Princess Yunluo called Cao Zhengchun over, he might be doomed, so he had to stabilize Princess Yunluo first.
"Then it's settled." Princess Yunluo smiled all over her face, and she was very happy when she thought that she could worship under Lu Yan's sect and become the disciple of the Grand Master.
Cheng Shifei looked at Princess Yunluo's excited look, and murmured in a low voice: "If I knew it earlier, I would have introduced you as my master's apprentice. Now it's all over, where can I introduce you to Mr. Lu?"
Cheng Shifei felt a headache when he thought of going to Qixia Town with Princess Yunluo to find Lu Yan.
Then he won't be hacked with a knife, right?
Chapter 46 Apprenticeship
Two days later.
Seven Heroes Town, Tongfu Inn.
Lu Yan was sitting on the high platform to tell a story, while Princess Yunluo and Cheng Shifei were sitting under the stage.
Princess Yunluo looked at Lu Yan with adoring eyes, and said to Cheng Shifei beside him, "That's my master?"
Cheng Shifei glanced at Lu Yan, then at Princess Yunluo, and said in a low voice, "Not yet."
Princess Yunluo glanced at Cheng Shifei, and asked: "With the introduction of your junior brother, will Mr. Lu still refuse to accept me as a disciple?"
When Cheng Shifei heard this, the expression on his face suddenly became extremely exciting.
If he was really Lu Yan's junior, it would be no problem to recommend Lu Yan as an apprentice.
But the point is that he is not!
Princess Yunluo saw that Cheng Shifei didn't speak, so she asked again: "Are you okay?"
Cheng Shifei looked helpless, so he had to lie again: "Okay, why not, in fact, I already made an agreement with my senior brother last night, after he finished his book, you can go directly to apprentice."
Princess Yunluo immediately showed surprise on her face when she heard the words, and said, "That's really great!"
