one step closer to the end

"Father is so gracious, my son is very grateful to Father..."

Zhao Guanren gave a half-dead salute, and retreated listlessly among the courtiers. He had already started to think in his heart, how to go to Jiguo as a prince, meet Lu Datou while negotiating, and find the way home is the most important thing.

"My loves! You must all be wondering where the crown prince and Prince Duan went..."

Emperor Shun Yao said solemnly: "Someone in the harem conspired to rebel and wanted to use corpse poison to murder me, and they almost succeeded. Now both the Gongwei Division and Jingdu Guard are stationed in the palace to investigate the case of rebellion. The corpse poison was sent by the commander himself. For safekeeping, the queen mother and son and Prince Duan are temporarily imprisoned!"

"It really is corpse poison..."

The officials were in an uproar in an instant. They would only believe this answer. It was reasonable for Zhao Guanren to become a prince. If it was said that the palace was haunted, not only few people would believe it. Would love to hear that.

"Your Majesty! I have played..."

The ministers started to work after discussing. The emperor only said to imprison the queen mother and son, but did not say to abolish the prince. A group of ministers who were preparing to make admonitions couldn't do their best, so they could only look anxiously, and Zhao Guanren was also very rare. The head doesn't know what to think.

'Where did the ghost go? '

Zhao Guanren stared at the floor tiles in a daze. He did see the female ghost in the phoenix robe last night, but he couldn't find it after a long search. I searched all over and couldn't find it.

"Hey! Master Sun, can you sneak out and take a shit..."

Zhao Guanren was really not interested in listening to others, so the Minister of Rites next to him said in a low voice, "You can't slip! If you sneak out, the guards will take you down directly. Generally, you can only hold back. If you really can't hold back, you can shout "Long live the emperor, the emperor!" will let you go!"

"Long live the emperor!"

Zhao Guanren took a spare moment to bow and salute, and Emperor Shun Yao waved to him as expected. In fact, most of the guards in the palace recognized him. After he ran out in a hurry, there were still many civil and military ministers standing outside, all of whom were not qualified to enter. temple people.

"Ok?"

Zhao Guanren noticed that Song Chizhu was waving quietly at the end, and he walked over and said with a smile, "Hey~ Lao Song! You're here too, so you're so busy!"

"Sarcasm is not..."

Song Chizhu smiled wryly and said: "How can you be so successful, I will kowtow when I see you in the future, my lord! I have been thinking about how you did it all night!"

"Do you think I'm like the emperor's illegitimate child..."

Zhao Guanren pointed at his face with a smirk, Song Chizhu shook his head like a rattle, he patted Song Chizhu's shoulder and smiled, "My lord, you have no hope in this life, you will help me with a few things later , I entrust you to stand in the hall in the future!"

"Hehe~"

Song Chizhu smiled pleasantly and said: "I knew it was right to follow you. I found the Minister of the Ministry of Officials overnight, and he brought me in to the court just to say a word to you. What's the matter with you?" Despite your orders, I will treat you back to Qifenglou!"

"Is there a skinny horse in Yangcheng..."

"You are already a prince, you still play that, you can't play a court lady..."

The two whispered to each other, let alone the eunuch in charge of discipline, he wished Zhao Guanren could not see him.

"Xuan! Xuanyang Celestial Master has an audience..."

A series of shouts suddenly came from the palace, and the two were chatting vigorously at the end, when suddenly a lot of pink petals fell from the sky.

"Wow~"

A Taoist in yellow robe flew down from the palace wall with his hands behind his back, a red mahogany sword on his back. The female disciple, flying all the way with a flower basket and scattering flowers all the way.

"I'll go! It's so pretentious, so tricky, what's the background..."

Zhao Guanren looked at the other party in surprise, and Song Chizhu said in a low voice: "He is known as the first celestial master of Dashun, the real Xuanyang of Xuanyang Palace, is there a demon in the palace? He is a celestial master who specializes in subjugating demons. Ordinary people can't even please him!"

'damn it!I really can't trust me cheap, the job grabbers are here...'

Zhao Guanren slandered secretly, only to see Xuanyang Celestial Master enter the main hall in a hurry, and he didn't know what he said to the emperor. Palace, must be executed as soon as possible!"

"Cut~ cat monster! I'm still daji, stick..."

"Meow~"

Chapter 0491

Killing Zhao Guanren didn't even think that the good-looking Dashun early dynasty would turn into a consecration scene for the ministers. Xuanyang Tianshi directly opened the altar outside the main hall, and all the civil and military officials lay on the ground piously, wishing to take off their clothes. Every hair is illuminated.

"Ah~ so stupid! A group of idiots..."

Zhao Guanren was eating bananas in the main hall, but he had to admit that he was more professional. A quaint altar was covered with scars and blood. Eight male and female disciples set off the atmosphere for him, blowing smoke and fire for a while. , The old Taoist made the mahogany sword dance vigorously.

"Emperor! Come here..."

Emperor Shun Yao moved the dragon chair to the gate, looked outside and asked in a low voice: "Do you think this Xuanyang celestial master is really capable? It is said that he also defeated the Thai thief Onmyoji. How do you compare with him? He Can you annihilate the ghosts in my harem in one fell swoop?"

"Father! Onmyojis don't live long, do you know why..."

Zhao Guanren squatted beside him and said: "Yin and yang are orderly and do not interfere with each other. Once you act against the sky, you will definitely die. You can see that I told outsiders that I have a psychic eye. I killed those mastiff boys yesterday. I read all night." The Great Compassion Curse, even killing ghosts will shorten your lifespan!"

"Oh?"

Emperor Shun Yao was surprised: "You mean, this Xuanyang Celestial Master is a charlatan?"

"We can't talk nonsense about this, after all, they haven't made a move yet..."

Zhao Guanren said with a smile: "But the more gaudy something is, the more moisture it has. Just watch him act. Later, he will definitely grab a wild cat from the bag, press it on the table and stab it to death with a sword. I will tell you the story of the harem." The chaos is all caused by this cat demon!"

"Hey! Listen to my order, the rain will come from the sky, and you will receive it quickly..."

Xuanyang Tianshi suddenly pointed his sword at the sky, but just as Zhao Guanren was about to say that his lines were not good, his mahogany sword shot out a ball of golden light, which shot into the sky with a "bang", turning into pieces of golden light and falling all over the sky. All the officials shouted for the immortal master.

"Huh? How did you do it? Is it really a magic trick..."

Emperor Shun Yao straightened up suddenly, and a few pieces of light just came from outside the door. He and Zhao Guanren each reached out to take a few pieces, and they were as cold as snowflakes, slowly melting in their palms.

"Your Majesty! Celestial Master Xuanyang seems to be really capable, not like some charlatan..."

Jin Wuming stood beside him and nodded deeply. Zhao Guanren didn't see any tricks, but instinctively felt that there was something wrong with his mahogany sword, so he said: "It's best to have real skills, just to destroy the emperor's sword in one fell swoop." Chaos in the harem!"

"No hurry! Watch him again..."

Emperor Shunyao still maintained a skeptical attitude, and rubbed his chin to observe Celestial Master Xuanyang carefully. Unexpectedly, Celestial Master Xuanyang suddenly turned around and said: "Your Majesty! Pindao has found the trace of the cat demon. There is a high pavilion in the east , is there a harem mother living in it?"

"Did you say the East Palace, the queen is there..."

Emperor Shun Yao looked at him noncommittally, and Xuanyang Tianshi said loudly again: "Your Majesty! The Eastern Palace is full of evil spirits, and it is almost a demon barrier. Please invite the queen here quickly, no! Poor Dao is bold, for the safety of Your Majesty's harem, please send me The queen brought it here in a prison van to prevent the cat demon from escaping!"

"Bold! The queen's phoenix body is precious, how can it be transported in a prison cart..."

Jin Wuming yelled in shock and anger, and Xuanyang Tianshi bowed again and said: "Then trouble the commander in chief, invite the queen to the stage personally, and I will give you a fairy talisman, as long as you stick the fairy talisman on the queen's chest You can just put it in front, but you must not take it off!"

"That's it!"

Emperor Shun Yao waved his hand lightly, Jin Wuming went out and took a yellow paper talisman, led a group of guards and hurried away, and Xuanyang Tianshi said loudly: "My lords! Please sing with me Recite the immortal mantra, remove the karma in the body, and stay healthy forever!"

"Thank you Heavenly Master!"

The civil and military officials knelt on the ground piously and recited the mantra. Emperor Shun Yao tapped the dragon chair lightly with his fingers, and suddenly turned his head and asked, "Emperor! What do you think?"

"My son, sit and watch! Father already knows everything, why ask me..."

Zhao Guanren sat on the ground next to him. He was the only one who received this kind of treatment. He could see that Emperor Shunyao was a very smart and wise man. Said he was a usurper.

"Let go of me! I am the queen, who dares to be rude to me..."

The queen's crazy roar suddenly sounded, and she was escorted over with disheveled hair and messy robes, just like a crazy woman, which shocked all the civil and military officials.

"Bold and monstrous! How dare you pretend to be a queen, and kneel down quickly..."

Celestial Master Xuanyang picked up the mahogany sword and yelled violently. When the queen was slammed under the steps, he sneered and said: "Nieve! My celestial master has eyesight and has already seen the original shape of your cat demon, but my celestial master read It is not easy for you to cultivate, if you leave the queen's body by yourself, this heavenly master will spare you!"

"Bah~ You are the cat monster, your whole family is a cat monster, let me go! I am the queen, I am..."

The queen struggled hysterically, and all the ministers backed away in fear, discussing a lot, even the princes hid aside in surprise, as if the queen had become a cat demon in their eyes, or a terrifying man-eating cat demon.

"Okay! Since you are stubborn, don't blame me for being ruthless..."

Xuanyang Tianshi walked around the altar aggressively, inserted a yellow paper talisman with a mahogany sword, and it ignited spontaneously with a flick of his wrist, followed by a few incantations that no one could understand, and pointed his sword at the madman below. The queen shouted loudly: "Naughty animal! It's too late to reveal its original shape!"

"Boom~"

The yellow paper talisman shot out from the mahogany sword suddenly, and hit the queen's chest with a "bang", blowing the queen to the ground in one fell swoop, turning into a ball of green flames, but the queen let out a scream of "meow" , A large mouthful of black blood spit out from the mouth.

"Beautiful! Good kung fu, good acting..."

Zhao Guanren clapped his hands and cheered. Emperor Shun Yao frowned instinctively, but the ministers in the square all burst into flames. Looking at the queen who kept rolling on the ground and meowing, they all shrank into panic. One after another.

"The cat demon! The queen is really possessed by the cat demon..."

All the ministers shouted in confusion, only to see Tianshi Xuanyang take off a cloth bag from his waist, and after saying "Mommy, Mommy coaxing" a few times, he suddenly shook his wrist and shouted: "Evil animal! This day! Master has taken you with Qiankun bag today, come here and suffer your death!"

"Meow~"

The queen suddenly stared at her legs and twitched all over her body, but there was a sudden drum in the Qiankun bag, and something jumped out of nowhere and moved around in it. Xuanyang Tianshi slammed it on the altar and gave a fierce shout Hey, a sword pierced through the Qiankun bag.

"Meow~~~"

There was a shrill meow in the Qiankun bag, and the blood soon stained the Qiankun bag red. After the cat stopped struggling, Xuanyang Tianshi opened the Qiankun bag and picked it up with a sword. All civil and military officials gasped. Gas, it really is a pitch-black cat in it.

"What's wrong with me? Why is Bengong here, what happened..."

The queen sat up just right, and looked around with a "blind" face. The princelings climbed up excitedly and shouted: "The empress! You have been possessed by a cat demon. The emperor invited Xuanyang Tianshi to exorcise you." , the cat demon has been beheaded, you are fine!"

"The queen is blessed and safe!"

The civil and military officials hurriedly knelt up again, and the empress also knelt on the ground excitedly, kowtowing desperately to thank the celestial master and the emperor.

"Yunxuan! If it wasn't for the female ghost that you drew with your own hands yesterday and has haunted me for more than ten years, today's big show might not go well, so I would really believe it..."

Emperor Shun Yao held his chin and said calmly: "Fortunately, they didn't know the truth, and they actually wanted to use the cat demon to clear the queen of the crime. They really treated me like a monkey. You go smash his stall and let the queen Go back to the East Palace and wait for what happens!"

"Father! It's not convenient for me to do this..."

Zhao Guanren smiled wryly and said: "I'm not playing tricks. I really don't understand the knocking on the door. Besides, there are too many people involved. If I go to smash their stalls, the princes and ministers still hate me!"

"Father is helping you this time, you still consider gains and losses..."

Emperor Shunyao grabbed his collar, stared and said: "I also want to remind you that the empress was imprisoned thanks to you. Believe it or not, they will immediately point the finger at you, saying that you are a troublemaker in the palace." The God of Plague, you want to help Lord Zhen Qing to kill the God of Plague?"

"Get rid of evildoers! God of Plague Clearing..."

really!

Xuanyang Celestial Master shouted outside the door, and Zhao Guanren became angry when he heard it, kicked directly from the hall with a flying kick, and kicked the altar down the steps.

"Oh~"

All civil and military officials screamed in shock, Xuanyang Tianshi also turned around and said angrily: "What are you doing, why are you destroying my altar?"

"I can't fucking stand it anymore, you old liar who deceives the public..."

Zhao Guanren yanked his Qiankun bag violently, and when he tore it open, the interlayer was revealed. He held it up in his hand and shouted: "Everyone, take a good look, the black cat has been packed in the interlayer, and he fed the black cat. Sleeping pills, the black cat will fall when you hook your finger!"

"You fart! This is not a mezzanine..."

Celestial Master Xuanyang snatched the bag in a hurry, but Zhao Guanren picked up the fallen yellow paper talismans again, picked up two pieces and pinched them vigorously in his hand, the paper talismans burst into flames and burst out Weird green phosphorous fire.

"See it! The paper talisman is covered with phosphorous powder, and its ignition point is extremely low, and it can burn with just a pinch of your hand..."

Zhao Guanren caused an uproar in an instant, and he shouted again: "His mahogany sword also has a trick, using profound energy to hit ice crystals to pretend to be rain from the sky. Shame on the palace!"

"Shut up! Could it be that this palace is also a trick, and help him deceive His Majesty..."

The queen jumped up fiercely, but Emperor Shunyao suddenly jumped out of the hall, kicked Xuanyang Tianshi down the steps, and cursed angrily: "You trickster, you actually cheated on me, they How many benefits have I given you, if I don't tell you, I will cut you off!"

"Bang~"

Jin Wuming pulled out his waist knife abruptly, and the frightened Xuanyang Tianshi shouted: "Don't cut it! I said, I really know how to subdue demons and eliminate demons, but...but they asked me to save the queen's life. I had to make such a bad move, I have never lied to anyone before!"

"You bastard! It's really disgusting, you tricked us into kowtowing for a long time..."

The ministers cursed one after another, and the empress collapsed limply on the ground, her face was once again pale and unhuman, and several entrusted ministers were also shaking like chaff. They knew that Emperor Shunyao was superstitious about ghosts and gods, but they didn't know that Zhao Guanren It really made him go to hell.

"Okay! You can subdue demons and eliminate demons, right..."

Emperor Shun Yao sneered and said: "I will give you another chance, as long as you can find a ghost in the palace, I will spare you from death, otherwise I will execute you Ling Chi, Qin Tianjian! You all accompany him to find a ghost." If you can't find it, drag it out before sunset!"

"stand up!"

The guards rushed over like wolves and tigers, and arrested Tianshi and his disciples together. The queen was also carried back to the East Palace. Her desperate expression was worse than yesterday, and the ministers entered the hall cursing. .

"Brother Wuming! Take a step to speak..."

Zhao Guanren called Jin Wuming to a place where there was no one, and said helplessly: "You know why the emperor trusts you, you never make friends with courtiers, you never eat and accept bribes, why are you late today? In fact, the emperor just needs to think about it a little bit. Then you will find out that it was you who delivered the message to the queen, and let her pretend to be crazy!"

"I……"

Jin Wuming lowered his head with shame on his face, Zhao Guanren patted him on the shoulder and said, "I can probably guess what's going on, the crown prince and Seventeen often use their beauty to force people to submit, and I was tricked by them too, so I forced myself to I put a concubine on my bed, we are brothers and sisters!"

"what?"
