Ouchi Cat Controlling, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!

Chapter 667 Jiaozhou City (10,000 words long chapter)

"There was a second-grade master on the mountain who used his Taoist realm and caused a landslide."

Manager Shang said with a solemn expression.

Everyone present heard this and couldn't help but hold their breath.

Everyone has heard of the word landslides, but this is the first time they have seen it with their own eyes.

Recalling the situation when half of the mountain collapsed before their eyes, they were still in shock.

At this time, the debris flow pouring down from the mountain has not stopped yet.

The igloo they were in was covered in mud as dark as ink, and they couldn't see the outside world at all.

But the boulders, trees, and some unknown things mixed in the mud made strange loud noises when they hit the igloo, which was frightening to hear.

Most of the people present were warriors with strong cultivation, but even so, it was difficult to effectively resist in the face of such heavenly power.

Previously, Manager Shang and Wei Changli had teamed up to reinforce the igloo to a safe level.

Although the sounds from the outside sound scary, they are not enough to overwhelm the igloo.

But now the biggest threat is not this landslide, but the mysterious master who caused the landslide as mentioned by Mr. Shang.

If the opponent pursues them in this situation, they will be very passive.

Wei Changli couldn't help but frowned after hearing Manager Shang's description of the bald man.

"To be able to trigger such heavenly power through the Dao realm, I am afraid it must be a master who can turn the realm into armor."

Manager Shang nodded.

Although the bald man most likely took advantage of the Five Elements attributes to achieve this level.

But Mr. Shang asked himself, if it were him, even if he had the right time and place, he might not be able to create such power.

"But this person was controlled by me for a moment with the illusion. At that time, a landslide just happened, and he fell into the landslide."

"I think this person should be an earth warrior who is very good at defense. He should have escaped successfully, but it is impossible not to pay a price."

"Otherwise, we wouldn't be allowed to speculate randomly here."

Manager Shang raised his head and looked at the igloo which was still stable.

Wei Changli nodded and agreed with Manager Shang's statement. He silently turned around and came to protect Princess Lu Zhao.

But they didn't know that Mr. Shang's decision to make such a judgment relied entirely on Li Xuan's perception.

"It's out of my range of perception."

"He's gone."

After Li Xuan finished transmitting the message to Manager Shang, he himself breathed a sigh of relief.

If the bald man just now continued to chase, he would really be catching a turtle in a jar.

They have locked themselves in an igloo now, and the opponent is most likely an earth warrior...

Li Xuan looked at the ground under their feet and couldn't help but shudder.

"I didn't expect that Dao realm could be used in this way."

Li Xuan's eyes were really opened today.

The large-scale vines that attacked Jinghou County before were rare enough, but I didn't expect that there was one that could collapse the mountain.

In the past, Li Xuan had only seen warriors using their Tao realms to confront enemies head-on, and he had even seen the world's top power such as transforming their realm into armor.

But the two people he met since his southern tour really showed Li Xuan a completely different way of thinking when using Taoism.

"Prince Zheng has really not been blind for so many years. Where did he find so many talents?"

Li Xuan cursed in his heart.

The opponent walked away with one strike, whether it was their original plan or whether they were injured because they interrupted the spellcasting.

But no matter what, they can breathe a sigh of relief.

"Rest where we are and wait until the mudslide stops before we leave."

Manager Shang gave the order, and the eunuchs in colorful clothes carried it out without thinking.

On the other hand, the princes and princesses were still a little worried, especially their close attendants, those with lower or even no cultivation levels, completely turned into frightened birds.

Li Xuan looked at the situation in the igloo and found that although everyone was in a mess, no one was injured.

They only lost some supplies and all their horses in this attack.

This is already a blessing among misfortunes.

It's a pity that all those horses were killed in the mudslide.

With the situation outside, there is probably no chance of survival.

Seeing that the alert was lifted, Li Xuan patted Manager Shang on the shoulder, climbed down from behind him, and then jumped into Princess Ankang's arms.

"Axuan, are you okay?"

Princess Ankang touched Li Xuan and asked with concern.

"Meow."

Li Xuan meowed mischievously and grinned.

The movement tonight really shocked them.

Not far away, Princess Luzhao paid attention to Li Xuan's every move, and then turned her gaze to Wei Changli beside her.

"Uncle Wei, can you sense the movement in the outside world?"

Wei Changli shook his head silently and replied: "The movement of the mudslide is too big, and the range I can perceive is very limited."

"Then how did Manager Shang judge that the other party had evacuated?" Princess Luzhao asked doubtfully.

"I'm afraid there are experts from outside who are secretly watching over us. Maybe they can communicate with each other through sound transmission."

As expected of a master, Wei Changli really guessed everything.

There is also a lot of mud on the floor of the igloo, with a deep pit at each foot.

Immediately, eunuchs in colorful clothes used their true energy to dry up part of the mud on the ground, allowing them to settle down.

"Boy, good things will happen when you come here."

The third prince came to Tieniu and with a kick of his foot, Tieniu rolled several times on the ground and fell into the mud.

"I……"

Tie Niu sat in the mud with his head down, and he didn't have the strength to climb out.

The eunuchs in flowery clothes didn't get orders, so they couldn't intervene.

The third prince wanted to continue to vent his anger on Tie Niu, but the next moment he heard a sharp cat cry.

"Meow!"

The third prince was immediately frightened and dodged to the side.

"You, what are you going to do?"

Li Xuan walked leisurely and passed by the third prince, and didn't forget to glare at him.

The third prince's heartbeat accelerated, his mouth became dry, his stomach ached subconsciously, and his face turned pale.

Li Xuan didn't pay much attention to him, came to Tie Niu, and stretched out his tail to him.

Tie Niu understood what Li Xuan meant, but didn't reach out to grab the tail, but lowered his head and whispered:

"My hands are dirty..."

Li Xuan rolled his eyes, didn't expect this kid to be so slow.

He immediately jumped forward, hooked Tie Niu's clothes with his tail, lifted him up, and then stepped into the air, and jumped back to the dry ground with him.

After Li Xuan pulled the man up, he waved his tail and left.

Is there anything wrong with Tie Niu? Li Xuan didn't know it clearly.

Who in the whole camp could have a better perception than him?

Tie Niu was just a simple unlucky guy.

The place where they camped was chosen by Shang Zongguan, and their whereabouts were not difficult to find. There was no need for Zheng Wang's people to do anything unnecessary.

Moreover, Tie Niu was rescued by Princess Ankang. Suspecting Tie Niu was also doubting Princess Ankang?

Li Xuan naturally couldn't tolerate this behavior and wanted to teach the third prince a lesson.

He knew that the third prince suspected Tie Niu of fraud, but Li Xuan had to let him know that he had to think before taking action.

He couldn't control others, but since it involved Princess Ankang, he didn't mind asking the third prince to play another game of Cuju.

When the Third Prince saw Li Xuan leaving, he deliberately grinned at him, making him angry and afraid, but he didn't dare to get angry.

Although there was mud all over the ground, it was not a reason for him to make a fool of himself again.

After being frightened by Li Xuan, the Third Prince quietly went to the side to rest, not daring to bother Tie Niu again.

"Tie Niu, are you okay?"

Manager Shang also stepped forward to ask with concern.

He didn't know if Tie Niu had any problems, but he believed in Li Xuan's judgment.

"No, it's okay."

To be honest, Tie Niu was a little shocked.

He originally thought that he had just met kind ladies and gentlemen, but the scene of the landslide just now had a huge impact on him.

Especially the methods of Manager Shang and Wei Changli later, in his opinion, were no different from the legendary gods.

Being guarded by such people made Tie Niu respect Princess Ankang who saved him even more.

In the eyes of the other party, he was almost like a small ant on the ground, but he was willing to care about his life.

This thought made Tie Niu's original intention of not wanting to continue living fade away.

"That's good."

Manager Shang nodded, then condensed a ball of water and washed the mud off Tie Niu's body.

"Don't think too much, take a good rest first."

Manager Shang patted Tie Niu on the shoulder, then turned and left.

Manager Shang himself was also from a humble background, and he could understand Tie Niu's mood at this time.

He just took into account that his hands were dirty, and did not immediately grab Li Xuan's tail to get himself out of the quagmire.

Based on this alone, Manager Shang also believed that this was a good child.

It was just that the experience of suffering made his character timid, but these could be changed.

Next, no one went to trouble Tie Niu again, and Tie Niu just found a corner to rest quietly and comfort his heart that had been severely impacted all day.

In the following time, everyone rested in the ice house. After an unknown number of hours, the movement outside slowly stopped, and Manager Shang and Wei Changli tried to open a hole on the top of the ice house.

As a hole opened on the top of the igloo, light suddenly shone into the igloo.

At this time, it was already bright outside, and they had spent a whole night in the igloo.

Then, Wei Changli built a series of frost stairs in the igloo, allowing them to pass through the hole on the top and leave the igloo.

When they came out, they saw a shocking scene.

The original forest was now completely submerged in mud, and only occasionally could they see trees that were washed away and strangely stuck in the mud.

Looking around, it was pitch black all around.

And in the direction where they originally camped, only half of the strange mountain was left.

It can be expected that this place will probably become a wonder in the near future.

Li Xuan looked at the sun that had just risen not long ago, and it should still be morning now.

But the official roads nearby were all buried, and it would not be easy for them to walk back to the official roads.

Moreover, they had no horses now, so they could only walk on their own two legs.

If they walked, they might not be able to reach Jiaozhou City at the agreed time.

Fortunately, they acted quickly these days and reserved a day, otherwise it would be even more troublesome.

Thinking of this, Li Xuan couldn't help but have an idea in his mind.

"Could it be that the other party just wants to delay our steps?"

"No, if I hadn't found that bald man in time, this landslide would never be so easy to deal with."

"But no matter what, King Zheng doesn't seem to want us to arrive in Jiaozhou City."

"At least we can't arrive as promised."

"What does King Zheng want to do in Jiaozhou City?"

Li Xuan didn't know King Zheng's plan, but he knew that the more King Zheng didn't want them to do something, the more they had to do it.

Li Xuan told Princess Ankang his idea, and Princess Ankang looked solemn after hearing it, and then said to Shang Zongguan:

"Shang Zongguan, let's set off quickly."

"Otherwise, it will be bad if we delay the time to reunite with my father."

"Let's go to the nearest county first, buy some horses, and then continue on our way."

Shang Zongguan immediately accepted the order after hearing it: "Yes, Your Highness."

"Then let's go back to the official road first, and then go to the nearest county to replenish horses."

Wei Changli, who was responsible for secretly protecting Princess Yan Zhao, had already appeared, so there was no need to continue hiding.

Wei Changli led the way directly in front, freezing a walkable road from the mud on the ground.

When he finished freezing the road, he did not forget to leave a serrated pattern on it to prevent slipping, which shows that he is a person with a delicate mind.

Because there were ordinary people in the team, they walked for a long time before returning to the clean official road.

After confirming the location of the intact official road, they could go to replenish horses, otherwise they would not be able to ride horses in the mud.

Shang Zongguan immediately sent the flower-clothed eunuch to find horses nearby, and they left immediately with luck and lightness.

The rest of the people continued to walk on the road, heading towards Jiaozhou City, waiting for the horses to be delivered.

There were no more twists and turns in the following time. After about an hour, the flower-clothed eunuch who went to find horses returned and brought dozens of horses.

But the quality of these horses was obviously not as good as their previous fast horses, but it was better than nothing, which made them travel much faster.

The next day, they galloped all the way day and night.

Finally, they arrived at Jiaozhou City at the agreed time.

The group arrived at the gate of Jiaozhou City in a dusty state, and there was no demeanor at the beginning.

Princess Ankang's clothes were inevitably left with many stains, and the situation of others was not much better.

"Huh, we finally got there."

Looking at the three big characters written on the top of the city gate, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

[Jiaozhou City]

"Chunjun, think positively."

Luji's gentle voice sounded, with a smile in her eyes.

"It's good to be able to come back alive."

"Huh!?"

Faced with Luji's teasing, Chunjun immediately glared at her.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Luji also stopped when she saw the good, and didn't go too far.

The two were sitting in a teahouse in Jiaozhou City, drinking tea and looking at the scenery outside the window.

Jiaozhou City is indeed the largest prefecture city in the surrounding area, with prosperous streets and endless flow of people.

After completing the mission last night, Chunjun returned in a mess, and now he has just recovered from some injuries, but it is not convenient to do anything in the past few days.

Chunjun snorted and sulked alone.

Compared to Luji's teasing, the failure of the mission last night made Chunjun more angry.

Over the years, he had never failed, but he didn't expect an accident to happen last night, and it almost ruined King Zheng's plan.

Chunjun had just arrived at the top of the mountain and was about to take action, but he was discovered by the other side.

He had no choice but to perform the landslide forcibly in order to complete the task, which cost him a lot.

What's worse is that after forcibly performing the landslide, he was controlled by the illusion of General Manager Shang and failed to evacuate from the first scene of the landslide in the first time, causing him to be involved.

If it weren't for his cultivation and amazing physical strength, he probably wouldn't be able to climb out.

The landslide he caused, on the contrary, smashed him half to death, which naturally caused his companions to laugh.

But Chunjun was sure that although he acted hastily, he also completed the set goal.

Although he failed to bury Princess Ankang and her group under the landslide, the mudslide caused by the landslide was enough to cause them a lot of trouble.

It should not be a problem to delay them for a few days so that they could not arrive in Jiaozhou City as scheduled to meet up with Emperor Yongyuan.

Chunjun was thinking this, when suddenly his eyes widened and he showed a shocked expression.

Luji couldn't help but be curious and looked over.

You know, Chunjun is usually dull and rarely has such an expression.

But when Luji saw a group of people appearing at the end of the street, she couldn't help but chuckle.

"It's over. I think you will be laughed at by them for this matter for the whole year."

Chunjun's expression changed for a while, and he felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

"Damn, I don't know how many masters are hidden in their team?"

Chunjun said indignantly.

"After all, these are the flesh and blood of Emperor Yongyuan, and he must be concerned."

"But this also proves that the prince's judgment is correct. It will be more effective to defeat them one by one."

Luji said, narrowing her eyes, and the smile on her face gradually became cold and cruel.

As Princess Ankang and others gradually approached, the two stopped talking and just watched the team marching downstairs silently.

This team looked quite embarrassed. The fatigue on their faces was hard to hide. Their clothes were messy and dirty. Where was the so-called royal nobility?

Lu Ji and Chun Jun leaned against the window of the teahouse and watched Princess Ankang and others walk along the street to the government office.

The team passed below them. The two did not avoid it at all. Instead, they looked at everyone in the team with interest.

But just as they were looking at the team, there was also a pair of eyes looking at them.

Lu Ji saw a beautiful girl riding at the front, and her appearance made her care.

But what's even more interesting is that there is a black cat sitting firmly in front of the girl's saddle.

The black cat was raising its head and staring at the two of them without blinking.

Seeing how cute the black cat was, Green Girl couldn't help but smile and wave.

The black cat actually grinned at her humanely, showing two small tiger teeth.

"What a cute black cat."

Lu Ji said softly.

"Let's get down to business first."

"They've arrived, and you have to inform the prince."

Chunjun urged from the side.

"I know, I know~"

Lu Ji replied lazily.

Then she closed her eyes and instantly fell into a state of extreme concentration.

Chunjun stood by her side and protected her.

"listen to me."

Li Xuan's message rang in the ears of Princess Ankang and the chief monk.

"The masters who launched the attack in Jinghou County and the masters who attacked us the night before yesterday are both in the city."

"He was even watching us from the private room of the roadside tea house just now."

Li Xuan's words made Princess Ankang and the chief monk's expression change.

Princess Ankang resisted the urge to look back and stretched out an arm to hug Li Xuan's body.

"One is a beautiful young woman wearing a green shirt."

"There is also a burly middle-aged bald man. His figure is very eye-catching in the crowd."

Li Xuan just saw the faces of Lu Ji and Chunjun clearly.

To be honest, the appearance of these two people is much younger than Li Xuan expected.

Especially Lu Ji, he didn't expect that a second-level warrior who could control a huge Tao realm looked like he was only in his early twenties.

Even if you have the skills to stay in shape, this is not normal.

Unless she is as talented as Princess Lu Zhao, who can break through to the third level at that age?

After all, the stronger you are, the longer your youthful appearance can be preserved.

This is true for female warriors.

The second is to use various special beauty-preserving elixirs and heavenly materials and earthly treasures, otherwise even the most powerful warriors will not be able to withstand the erosion of time.

Manager Shang also frowned after hearing this, and quietly sent a message to Li Xuan and Princess Ankang:

"Axuan, you were right not to say anything just now."

"I'll see His Majesty later. It won't be too late to report back."

Li Xuan nodded.

In a short time, they arrived at the county government office.

Princess Ankang and others went to meet Emperor Yongyuan with Manager Shang, while the eunuchs in colorful clothes who escorted them went down to rest.

Tieniu was taken away together.

Ever since he entered Jiaozhou City, he had become nervous and always looking around, apparently because he was afraid that his original master would find him.

After all, he ran away secretly. If he was discovered, it would be a trivial matter to catch him. It is not impossible for his master to kill him in anger.

But now that Tieniu is under the supervision of the colorful eunuch, this will not happen.

When Emperor Yongyuan saw Princess Ankang and others, a trace of relief flashed across his face.

Compared with the past few days, the princes and princesses have obviously become more calm.

Looking at the six heads they brought, Emperor Yongyuan knew that the task assigned to them was completed very smoothly.

Emperor Yongyuan opened the boxes containing the heads one by one to confirm, and then nodded lightly.

In this way, at least those counties successfully decentralized new officials.

As for whether one party can be managed well in the future, it depends on whether the subsequent southern tour can continue smoothly.

After all, if Emperor Yongyuan loses, these officials will not be able to secure their positions for a few days before they are kicked out by King Zheng, and they may even be killed to scare the monkeys.

"You did a good job, go down and rest."

"We have to continue our journey tomorrow."

Emperor Yongyuan simply encouraged them and then waved them away.

"Ankang, please stay for a while."

Emperor Yongyuan left Princess Ankang behind, and Manager Shang tacitly stood aside to wait for orders.

"Tell me about the past few days."

After receiving the order from Emperor Yongyuan, Princess Ankang described the events of the past few days in detail.

Emperor Yongyuan nodded frequently when he heard that corrupt officials were being punished one by one.

When he heard that Princess Ankang and others were attacked, he frowned again in the face of such a disaster as a landslide.

After listening to Princess Ankang tell all the story, Emperor Yongyuan let out a sigh of relief.

"I didn't expect that in just a few days, there would be a lot of twists and turns on your side."

Hearing this, Princess Ankang couldn't help but ask: "What does your father mean..."

"I have not been idle these days. I have had several secret confrontations with Prince Zheng."

Emperor Yongyuan smiled slightly, obviously having the upper hand.

"Let's not mention these past things, but the Tieniu you rescued is quite interesting."

"He said his father's surname was Miao, right?" Emperor Yongyuan asked.

"Father, do you recognize this family?"

Princess Ankang thought that there was such a coincidence.

"There is only one famous Miao family in Jiaozhou City. Coupled with the fact that the head of the family has a tendency to cut sleeves, it becomes even more obvious."

"It will be of great use to me to keep this Iron Bull properly settled, but it is best not to be included in the southern patrol team."

Emperor Yongyuan said and looked at Manager Shang beside him.

"this……"

Manager Shang showed hesitation.

This southern tour consumed all the power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to ensure the safety of Emperor Yongyuan.

If Tie Niu was placed in the southern tour team, it would be fine. If he was to be placed elsewhere, Shang Zongguan could not think of a good place for a while.

At this time, Princess Ankang came forward to help Shang Zongguan out.

"Father, I have a place to go, but I don't know if you can rest assured?"

"Oh, tell me."

"Father, the Red Scarf Team of this southern tour also has someone secretly supporting them. They are now in Jiaozhou City." Princess Ankang replied.

"If it is inconvenient for Tie Niu to stay in the southern tour team, you can let the Red Scarf Team take care of him temporarily."

"The leader of the Red Scarf Team this time is Wei Zhen."

After listening to Princess Ankang's suggestion, Emperor Yongyuan nodded and said, "This is a good idea."

"Ankang, then hand Tie Niu over to Wei Zhen for custody, and tell him to take good care of him. I will need him in the future."

"Yes, father."

Princess Ankang agreed to this matter.

Then, Emperor Yongyuan turned to Li Xuan and asked:

"Ah Xuan, what do you think of the strength of those two people?"

Li Xuan thought about it seriously, and then said: "They will not be weaker than the Western Region Fire Demon."

"Is that so..."

Emperor Yongyuan fell silent.

"I already know the origin of that woman."

"She is the Thousand Vine Demon Princess who walked out of the Emerald Plateau twenty years ago."

"No one knows her background, but we only know that she is good at killing enemies with various vines. At that time, she set off a bloody storm in the Daxing martial arts world."

After hearing this, Li Xuan couldn't help but stare and confirm: "Twenty years ago meow!?"

"Yes, some people say that the Thousand Vine Demon Princess is a spiritual plant from the Emerald Plateau that turned into a human form, not a human race, so she has that special strength." Emperor Yongyuan said a rumor.

Li Xuan recalled the appearance of the young woman he had seen before, and immediately believed it a little.

"Is there really a way for aliens to turn into human forms in this world meow?"

Seeing Li Xuan ask this, Emperor Yongyuan just smiled.

"It's just a rumor after all, no one has confirmed it."

But Li Xuan silently kept this in mind.

If Qianteng Moji is really a human form transformed by a spiritual plant, her absurdly exaggerated realm of Taoism has a reasonable explanation.

Then, Li Xuan couldn't help but think of the other strong man he had just met in the teahouse, thinking: "Could that be a spirit made of stone?"

As Li Xuan thought about it, he thought of the other person's round bald head, and suddenly he thought more and more that it was possible, and he laughed.

Emperor Yongyuan saw Li Xuan laughing while talking, and couldn't help but twitching his eyes.

But he was not surprised, so he waited for a moment and stared at Li Xuan and finished laughing.

"Sorry, where were we just now?"

"Qianteng Moji." Princess Ankang whispered to the side.

Emperor Yongyuan shook his head helplessly, and then continued the previous topic:

"Ah Xuan, how many masters do you think are needed to take down these two people?"

For such a question, Emperor Yongyuan did not ask the more powerful Shang Zongguan, but first asked for Li Xuan's opinion.

Li Xuan thought about it seriously, and then analyzed:

"Before killing the Western Region Fire Demon, Ye Lao, Shang Zongguan, two Buddhist monks, and Sharon were dispatched to fight to the death in advance."

The analysis process was quite brain-consuming, so Li Xuan switched to communicating by voice transmission.

He bent his little paws and began to count them one by one.

"At that time, the main combat force was Master Ye and Master Shanliao, who were top-ranked masters of the second rank."

"In addition, there were two uncertain factors: the harassment from me and the chief monk, and the temperament of Sharon and the Western Fire Demon."

Li Xuan calculated one by one and finally came to a conclusion:

"If you want to take down those two people, you probably need at least ten top-ranked masters who can transform their realm into armor, and you can't scare them away."

"Otherwise, if they try to escape, you probably won't be able to stop them."

"Ten?"

Emperor Yongyuan almost rolled his eyes when he heard this.

If he could take out so many top masters at once, what would he be studying here?

He would have sent people to take down King Zheng, who lived not far away.

But then Li Xuan changed the subject:

"Of course, this is without knowing them."

"If there was more information about them, maybe there wouldn't be so many masters."

For the two mysterious masters under King Zheng, they had only faced one attack each.

To be honest, the abilities of the two mysterious masters are indeed impressive.

But no one can predict what will happen in a head-on confrontation.

Therefore, when the top three masters fight, the information about their own Dao and Dao realm is the most important factor in determining the outcome.

If the information is leaked in advance, the opponent will be prepared to deal with it, and will be at a great disadvantage in the battle, and may even pay the price of his life.

And Li Xuan now wants Emperor Yongyuan to find a way to collect information about the two mysterious masters.

At least they are not completely clueless now.

They already know that the young and beautiful woman is Qian Teng Mo Ji.

If they continue to inquire more in the martial arts world, they may be able to get more information about this person.

Qian Teng Mo Ji, this name does not sound like a positive character, and perhaps she has many enemies in the martial arts world.

These enemies must be looking forward to Qian Teng Mo Ji's misfortune as soon as possible.

Li Xuan expressed his thoughts and immediately received the consent of everyone present.

"You kitty have quite an idea."

Emperor Yongyuan first praised.

Li Xuan also showed his pride unceremoniously.

"But this matter is not that easy to handle. The relationship between the imperial court and the various sects in the world cannot be said to be good, but it cannot be said to be bad either."

"I do know that there is such a person who can help us with this."

"Who is it?" Li Xuan asked curiously.

"That's Lu Zhao."

When Li Xuan heard this, he said directly: "Then just ask her to help meow."

"Axuan, you don't know something."

Emperor Yongyuan explained for Li Xuan.

"On this southern tour, Lu Zhao will accompany him. This is actually not the intention of the Wu family."

"I have only convinced the queen, but I have not convinced the Wu family yet."

"The Wu family still maintains their previous strategy and intends to continue to sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers. They seem to be confident that no matter who wins or loses, they can come forward to solve the problem."

Having said this, Emperor Yongyuan showed an obvious look of displeasure.

"At least, they think that's the optimal strategy."

"But the queen had different ideas, so she agreed to let Lu Zhao join us on our southern tour."

Li Xuan and Princess Ankang both looked surprised.

They originally thought that Emperor Yongyuan persuaded the Wu family to form an alliance, so that Princess Luzhao could participate in this southern tour.

Now it seems that the situation is different from what they expected.

"Then the Second Imperial Sister..."

Princess Ankang couldn't help but look worried.

"Don't worry too much about Lu Zhao. No one in the Wu family dares to offend her. After all, we have to count on her in the future."

"It's just that you need to keep a low profile, otherwise the Wu family may intervene and cause things to develop in a bad way."

It seems that although Emperor Yongyuan wanted to use Princess Luzhao's connections, he did not want to alarm the Wu family.

Princess Luzhao's following the southern tour this time is enough to attract the attention of the Wu family. If she is not more cautious, she may cause a violent reaction from the Wu family.

Because the future of the Wu family can be said to be maintained by Princess Lu Zhao.

Regardless of whether Princess Lu Zhao is ambitious or not, she is now the most powerful candidate for the crown prince.

If Emperor Yongyuan loses, they can justifiably support Princess Luzhao, then raise the banner of righteousness and get rid of Prince Zheng, who has already fought against Emperor Yongyuan once.

On the other hand, if King Zheng loses, it will be easier and simpler.

The Wu family only needs to go all out to confirm Princess Luzhao's position as the crown prince. At that time, as long as they wait for the right time, they can ascend the throne and proclaim themselves emperor, with even less risk.

"Then can you let Princess Luzhao secretly help meow?"

Li Xuan thought of a compromise.

Princess Luzhao travels all year round and often practices in major martial arts holy places. Coupled with her own reputation in Daxing, her connections in the world are terrifying.

Everyone knows someone who is either a big shot in the Holy Land of Martial Arts or a hero who is famous all over the world. It is really easy to inquire about something.

"You can give it a try." Emperor Yongyuan sighed.

"Let Ankang mention this matter in a sideways manner. It's not easy for me to come forward directly."

Li Xuan and Princess Ankang understood what Emperor Yongyuan meant and immediately agreed.

After confirming the solutions to these problems, Emperor Yongyuan talked about the purpose of his visit to Jiaozhou City.

Jiangpu, the prefect of Jiaozhou.

"Although there are some stains on Jiang Pu's body, it is undeniable that he is a capable official."

"If possible, I still hope that he can return from his lost ways, or at least stop helping others do evil."

"I arrived in Jiaozhou City late yesterday. Jiang Pu greeted the southern tour team respectfully, but he was just slick and didn't want to make any promises."

"The Miao family you mentioned before are relatives of Jiang Pu's wife. Jiang Pu cares about his wife very much."

"The current head of the Miao family is Jiang Pu's father-in-law. If this person is in trouble, Jiang Pu will not sit idly by."

“But that alone is not enough.”

Emperor Yongyuan shook his head with a headache.

"The evidence I have against him is not strong enough."

As a member of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Manager Shang bowed silently to the side, expressing his fear.

Emperor Yongyuan waved his hand and didn't pay too much attention.

"Jiang Pu is cautious and has complicated relationships in the officialdom. It is indeed difficult to investigate."

"So, Xuan, it's your turn to appear again."

Emperor Yongyuan looked at Li Xuan with a smile.

Li Xuan immediately pointed at himself with his tail and said doubtfully:

"Meow?"

"Yes, it's you!"

A quarter of an hour later, there was a black cat on the roof of the government office.

"Is this okay?"

Li Xuan was very suspicious of Emperor Yongyuan's plan.

He yawned boredly and quickly spotted Jiang Pu's figure in the government office.

Jiang Pu has become old, and he looks to be in his fifties or sixties, but he is in good spirits, and the wind is blowing under his feet when he walks, which is quite impressive.

This person's appearance is quite passable, at least he is not fat-headed and big-eared, but rather has a loose-shaped crane bone shape, giving him a rather scholarly air.

But this kind of official was described by Emperor Yongyuan as an extremely slippery person.

Jiang Pu didn't know what he was busy with. He was going in and out of the government office, busy non-stop.

Li Xuan listened for a while and found that he was arranging the food and accommodation of the southern patrol team and the farewell issue tomorrow morning.

Even before Emperor Yongyuan left, he had already begun to make arrangements in an orderly manner.

The officials under Jiang Pu were also very obedient and seemed to be very convinced of him. They called him "Master of the Palace" and were very respectful.

But the more Jiang Pu did this, the more Li Xuan sighed.

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs has been investigating for so long and there are no loopholes. What can I gain by cramming at the last minute?"

But then, Li Xuan remembered the package of things that Emperor Yongyuan gave him in the Emperor Hong bone ring.

Li Xuan only took a glance and knew that these things were prepared by Zhao Feng.

Their Ministry of Internal Affairs always uses the same old tricks without any changes.

But I think it must be useful, after all, a new trick can be used everywhere.

Li Xuan received the order. If he could not find any useful clues, he should send the package of things under Jiang Pu's bed.

In this way, his mission would be completed.

Emperor Yongyuan just said something nice, but in fact he asked Li Xuan to come and deliver the stolen goods.

Li Xuan lay on the roof, basking in the sun and scratching his butt.

Jiang Pu was also patient. He kept wandering around the government office, sending his men out to execute any tasks.

Li Xuan watched for a while and found something wrong.

Jiang Pu kept wandering around the government office. Although he seemed busy, he was just doing the same things over and over again.

He was now dealing with the affairs after Emperor Yongyuan left, and he was very fast, almost arranging them for next month.

"Is this guy pretending to be busy?"

Li Xuan got up and stood on the roof to check around the government office to see if anyone was watching here.

But he didn't find any spies except himself.

Just when Li Xuan thought Jiang Pu was too cautious, he suddenly found a vine crawling slowly in the courtyard of the government office, slowly winding through the window cracks and into a room.

"It's her, the Thousand Vine Demon Princess!"
