Xiuxian is like this

"So that's how it is. To have such a virtuous younger brother like me, his life is really lucky."

Lu Bei sighed with emotion, rounding up, he saved Hu San's dog's life again, if this is the eldest sister, wouldn't it be...

He shook his head to disperse the weird thoughts in his mind, squinted his eyes slightly to look at the woman, his eyes flicked across several arcs, he sneered, and kept provoking the other party's anger.

In the next second, the fist that condensed the frosty cold air was rapidly enlarged in front of him, and it hit the door directly.

This punch is extremely powerful. If there is no accident, if there is no accident, if you get a punch at the God Transformation Realm, it will turn into ice crystals and powder on the spot, and change it to the Void Refining Realm. Physical movement speed.

Lu Bei had no intention of being punched and pretended to be aggressive. Considering that she was a relative of his own and that the woman was very likely to know Zhu Qilan, he withdrew [-]% of his strength when he fought back.

Head to head, fist to fist, a bang collided with the frost-covered fist.

With a muffled sound, the cold air rolled back, and the silver horse collapsed into shape.

The woman's stern eyes were frightened for a moment, and she watched helplessly as the majestic force poured into the arm along the front of the fist, shattering the entire arm bone, compressing the shoulder bone, and breaking the sternum.

Bang! !

The woman flew upside down, fell more than ten meters away, supported her body with one arm, and looked around in horror.

It's her little world!

Then the question arises, in your own small world, how can you be knocked down with a punch?

"Who are you, you are not Ningzhou Ziwei!"

"Always."

Lu Bei put away the breath-holding skills of the Banished Immortal, showed his strength in the Void Refining Realm, raised the saber above his head, and swung it down violently.

The Zhibai sword light stretched into the distance, splitting the woman's small world in half with one blow, seriously injuring her soul, and at the same time kindly answered her doubts.

Around the two halves of the small world, a huge phantom slowly formed, the sky was high and the earth was far away, the full moon hung high, and the light of the stars bloomed with the power of four images.

The woman rolled to dodge, but was not as fast as the sword light, and her severely injured and boneless arm broke off at the shoulder, and a large amount of bright red gushed out.

She didn't care to stop the blood, and looked at the vast sky with her eyes in horror. When she regained her senses, Lu Bei had already come to her with a knife.

Under the moonlight, a face with clear shadows, only the sword in his hand is always cold and bright.

In the next moment, the straight knife swept across, and the head flew up.

[You defeated Zhu Qiming and gained 400 million experience]

Lu Bei raised his hand to wipe away the blood drops from the blade, tried to activate the blood nest, and was not disappointed if he didn't steal the skills. He gathered the small world and looked in the direction of the temporary yamen.

In the perception of the spiritual sense, the two groups of dead men acted separately, one group split up in front of the prison, and the other group failed to ambush the fox, and was ambushed by the anti-ambush, and also split up.

Without the suppression of Lu Bei's small world, the woman's body kept twitching, joints appeared on her broken arm and shoulder, and her head looked at the sky in shock.

For a monk in the Void Refining Realm, the primordial spirit is difficult to kill, so you don't need to take advantage of it, you can use it when you connect the head.

"Hey hey hey..."

……

Yizhou, Changming Mansion.

Lu Bei climbed over the courtyard wall with a sack on his back, and while the formation was not paying attention, he forced his way through to the inner courtyard.

In the study, Zhu Qilan frowned, put down the scroll in his hand, secretly thought that the dead man had finally kept his promise, and didn't let her go tonight.

Steward Yu covered his mouth and snickered, not afraid of being glared at by Zhu Qilan, he picked up the teapot with a smile and refilled half a cup for him.

At the same time, don't forget to put another cup on the desk.

As if thinking of something, she became playful and switched the two teacups in front of Zhu Qilan.

Zhu Qilan: "..."

At this time, Lu Bei couldn't find anyone in the bathroom, so he came to the study, threw down the sack in his hand, picked up the teacup and poured it down, and said happily: "Good tea, it's not worse than my head's special offer, It’s just a little bit sweeter, with honey?”

"Maybe, some people smeared honey on their mouths." Butler Yu said meaningfully.

"Bai Yu understands me. Apart from my strengths, I only have good speech." Lu Bei nodded repeatedly. As expected of someone who came out of the palace, his speech is good. It's a pity that he chose the hard mode when he was reincarnated, otherwise he would at least be a chief assistant.

The corners of Zhu Qilan's eyes twitched, looked at the sack thrown aside by Lu Bei, frowned and said, "Who is in it, the fugitives on the list?"

"Not yet, cousin, if you say something, she will."

Lu Bei sighed: "You might not believe me when I said it. When I was admiring the moon in Dongwang County, this man led hundreds of killers to ambush him. If it wasn't for my ability, I wouldn't be able to see you, cousin, tonight."

Who can't bear it?

Zhu Qilan was puzzled, somewhat disbelieving.

"More than that, the assailant has a big plan. Not only does he want to kill me, but also another Ziwei in Ningzhou, that is, my elder brother, is on the assassination list."

Lu Bei told the truth, and finally ended with grief: "It's a pity, they only almost killed my elder brother, really only a little bit, if there is a cultivator in the Void Refining Realm personally..."

"Stop talking nonsense, even if you say so, I will not kill your elder brother."

Zhu Qilan interrupted Lu Bei's nonsense, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and pointed at the cold light, shattering the sack to reveal Zhu Qiming's figure.

Behind his hands and feet tied behind his back, a rag that looks like a stinky sock was stuffed into his mouth, a clean arm was exposed, his clothes were stained with blood, his hair was messy, and his entire face was frighteningly white. Looking at it...

This is the victim.

Zhu Qilan remained silent. The face of the victim could not be said to be familiar, but he could only say that he had seen him a few times during clan gatherings.Because they were practitioners of the Hanquan Forbidden Code and were of the same generation, they had a lot of common topics, so we had a very happy chat at that time.

"She...is my cousin Zhu Qiming. Tell the truth, what do you mean by arresting her to see me?"

Zhu Qilan's eyesight is not good, her cousin Zhu Qiming gave birth to her decades earlier, and she gave her advice on cultivation once. She has a good sense of this cousin, if Lu Bei doesn't speak clearly today, don't blame her...

Anyway, let's make it clear!

"The raid of the East Palace caused the West Palace to mistakenly believe that His Majesty was cutting down the vassal. They didn't dare to be presumptuous with His Majesty, but they were afraid that His Majesty would push too hard, so they attacked me and my elder brother."

Lu Bei confessed honestly, and then added a sentence: "About the West Prince's Mansion, does my cousin have any information, what is the status of this cousin's family, and how much can she sell for?"

"Wait a minute, what does it mean to mistakenly think that your majesty will cut down the feudal clan, isn't it at the beginning?" Zhu Qilan was extremely surprised.

"Of course not. In the beginning, I ransacked the house just because I wanted to make money. I buried the imperial robes and jade seals and planted them in the East Palace for rebellion. I copied them. His Majesty felt that there was something to be gained, and then I joined the gang."

"..." x2

"What's wrong, what's wrong?"

"You didn't say that last time!"

"Actually, it's almost the same. Anyway, there is no good thing."

Chapter 3 Shouting Broken Throat

Zhu Qilan remained silent for a long time, not knowing whether he was feeling sorry for himself or Wu Zhou's country and society.

Probably both.

"Cousin, tell me quickly, what is the family status of this cousin in the West Prince's Mansion, and how much can she sell for?" Lu Bei urged.

"Are you serious?"

Zhu Qilan did not answer directly, but instead reminded: "It is a felony to imprison or kidnap relatives of the royal family. Cousin is a member of the royal family, you'd better think twice."

"It's okay, as the leader of Huangjizong, it's a humble job to fight against the royal family."

"..."

At this time, you don't say that you are loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

Zhu Qilan sighed, looked at Zhu Qiming who was seriously injured, felt pity in his heart, and said softly: "Lu Bei, my cousin has been kind to me, if you just ask for money and keep her, I will pay for it." .”

"Commander, this fang assassinated Xuanyin Division Ziwei with the intention of treason, and the whole family should be punished for the crime. As the emperor's personal soldier, Lu is willing to go through fire and water for His Majesty. She has no right and it is impossible to hand her over to Huangjizong."

"..."

Are you loyal and patriotic again?

Zhu Qilan was speechless for a while, and gave Lu Bei a hard look: "Keep this person, or you will stay!"

"Cousin, are you falling out with me for a woman?"

Lu Bei raised his hands to cover his face, his eyes were full of grievances: "What's wrong with her, isn't she just a little fleshy in her chest? You need to keep your eyes open to see clearly, other than that, she has no strengths at all."

Under normal circumstances, when encountering such an inconspicuous person, Zhu Qilan would basically slash with a knife without saying a word.

But obviously, Lu Bei was unusual.

She couldn't suppress the trembling eyebrows, took a deep breath, and warned herself not to be like a dead person, and said: "Your Majesty's cutting down the feudal clan has already touched the bottom line of many powerful people. If you cause trouble again, maybe they will not dare to treat you. How about your Majesty, but I don't have so many worries about you... "

Laughing to death, when they come to the door, everyone in Lu will fit together!

Lu Bei curled his lips slightly, nodded to show that Zhu Qilan was right, patted his chest and said, this trip is only asking for an explanation, asking for [-] million yuan for mental damage, and will never make any big scenes.

Regarding this guarantee, Zhu Qilan didn't believe a word, but seeing that Lu Bei's attitude was firm and there was no possibility of giving in, he could only tell the situation of the West Palace.

Xiwang Zhu's family, the fief of Xiwang County in Xianzhou, has governed diligently for 800 years. The people of the clan practice hard and are not corrupted by prosperity and wealth. This is in stark contrast to the Zhu family of the East King who only knows how to make money for cooking.

This point alone makes people wonder whether there is a generation of princesses in the East Palace who are pregnant with the wrong child.

The several Cultivating Mountain Gate families under the Xiwang Commandery, either supported by the Xiwang Mansion, or related by marriage, radiate to the surrounding area, and have a huge network of relationships, controlling a rather impressive force in Xianzhou.

For example, Zhu Qike, the Western King of this generation, worshiped the Heavenly Sword Sect to practice when he was young.

Due to his secular status, Zhu Qi could not become an inner sect disciple, but the young master from a rich family has no shortage of friends everywhere. Under his big coin offensive, he not only has a good relationship with many senior brothers and sisters, but also wins a senior sister Huanxin, marry Meijiao Niang as his wife.

Later, Zhu Qike became the king of the west, and this senior sister was promoted to the princess of the west.

Hearing this, Lu Bei felt that something was wrong, and interjected: "The West Prince's Mansion has been operating forces all the year round, and it's so fun to dance, isn't it afraid that the capital may have some minor opinions?"

"This is the meaning of the capital, and the West Palace is just following orders."

Zhu Qilan explained that when Wu Zhou first founded the country, Huangjizong was far from the power it is now, the royal family's influence was insufficient, and it was difficult for government orders to go out of the capital.

The first emperor believed deeply in his own brothers, so he granted them a lot of authority, allowing them to exercise freely, forming their own forces to defend the capital.

At that time, there was no problem with this policy, which greatly consolidated the stability of the imperial power.

With the rapid rise of Huangjizong, the influence of the royal family expanded, and the conflict with the power in the hands of the vassal kings, the reduction of the vassals was inevitably put on the agenda.

At that time, Huang Jizong was in charge of ransacking the house. He had enough oil and water, and he worked very hard to make money.

After several vassal cuts, the Northern Prince's Mansion fell into a slump, and the Eastern Prince's Mansion lay flat to make money. Only the West Prince's Mansion survived wave after wave of suppression by borrowing their connections.

At the same time, Huangjizong's buttocks gradually tilted to the side, and the royal family set up a new Xuanyin Division to check and balance Huangjizong with overlapping powers. They changed their policies and once again supported the dignitaries and vassals everywhere.

For example, to win over the Xiuxian family, such as reducing taxes for the cultivation gate, allowing monks to bring their skills to join the army...

Later, Xuanyin Division and Huangjizong were indistinguishable from each other, and the imperial power was once again stabilized, followed by the reduction of the feudal clan.

All in all, politics is about compromise, and policies change with the times.

The current situation of the West Prince's Mansion is due to the influence of the times. Facing the royal family's latest means of reducing the domain, they tried every means to strengthen themselves.

Just like sending people to assassinate Fox Three and Fox Four this time, in essence, it's just a way to express dissatisfaction and make your own voice.

Commonly known as protest.

Speaking of which, the Western Palace's attitude towards the royal family is extremely respectful, at least the superficial work is done very well.

For example, the old emperor had not been in power for a long time. When the crown prince Zhu Qiyou was passed on, the old Xi Wang had a gray beard and was in his prime of life. the next generation.

"It turns out that the West Prince's Mansion is glamorous on the surface, but in reality it's like walking on thin ice. It's worse than me."

After listening to Zhu Qilan's analysis, Lu Bei suddenly realized, and then added: "Cousin has a unique vision of the political situation, have you ever thought about becoming an official in the court? With your financial resources, you will be the next emperor's tutor in a few years."

In the second half of the sentence, Zhu Qilan pretended not to hear it, and said with relief: "Since you know that the West Palace is not easy, just be a good person once and sell your cousin to me. The West Palace, I will settle it for you. They don't know The relationship between you and... His Majesty has been clarified, and no one will embarrass you in the future."

"It makes sense, but I don't want to."

Lu Bei shook his head resolutely: "The West Palace is trembling, and under the suppression of the royal family, it is always cautious. This is a standard trick, and you can't find it with a lantern. If Lu doesn't come to grab carbon in the snow, what is the difference from a fool? It doesn't matter if you don't cultivate immortals!"

The stones in the latrine are smelly and hard.

After Zhu Qilan had finished his good words, seeing that Lu Bei didn't give him any face, the princess became angry and said angrily: "Then you go and ask for money, I want to see, what can you do with my cousin if the West Palace doesn't give you money! "

"Not much, after all, she is a relative of my own, and I can't really kill her."

Lu Bei raised his brows: "But Lu is not a master who can be bullied. Next year, he will threaten the West Palace with his child, and he will not give any money. When the child grows up, I will lead my troops to take the throne for him."

"..." x2

Zhu Qilan's face was livid, but Butler Yu raised his hand to cover his mouth, covering his exclamation.

Lu Bei took another sack, stuffed Zhu Qiming into it, put his hands on his shoulders, and patted his buttocks to leave.
