Castle Peak Does Not Change [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

Speaking of which, Guo Huai was the former eunuch of Empress Dowager Liu, and her status has risen along with Empress Dowager Liu from Concubine Liu De to Concubine Liu and then to the current Empress Dowager Liu, but why is she wearing a dusty little eunuch uniform and holding a Where is the magic weapon for collecting souls coming to the Cold Palace to collect souls?

How many years ago did you do it?

This can only be attributed to "Qi Erniang" performed by Tongchun Troupe.

Wasn't Concubine Pang called Tongchun Ban before, and then came to the harem to play for the ladies of the harem, and Empress Dowager Liu was among the people who came to watch that day.Although Empress Dowager Liu is gone now, but after all she is the aunt of the official family, the empress proclaimed by Emperor Daxing, and Concubine Pang Guifei invites ladies to watch a play, no matter what she can't surpass Empress Dowager Liu.The Empress Dowager Liu came to watch the play, and Guo Huai, as the chief eunuch, served by her side, so when their master and servant came, they were frightened by "Er Niang Qi".

It is also because "Qi Erniang" was performed so well by the Tongchun troupe, making the audience feel as if they were there, and the horror effect naturally penetrated into the hearts of the people.What's more, Empress Dowager Liu and Guo Huai already had ghosts in their hearts, and they would be panicked if they were frightened like this.

Empress Dowager Liu has been in poor health recently. When she returned to Renshou Palace after watching "Qi Erniang", she remembered the past. She was dizzy at the moment and fell ill the next day. As for Guo Huai, after being frightened She didn't get sick from being frightened, instead she made mistakes and quietly left the palace, found a master who knew how to practice deeds, asked how to collect the soul, and bought some other things.

On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, the official family hosted a banquet for civil and military officials in the Wende Hall, and the guards focused on patrolling the Wende Hall. When there was no one guarding the Han Palace, Guo Huai dressed up and came to the Han Palace. , Wanting to take away Concubine Li's soul.

Guo Huai would never have thought that there would be a Chinchilla passing by the roof of the Han Palace tonight, and happened to hear his rambling words, and after hearing the tricks in it, flew down from the roof of the Han Palace.

It's also a coincidence that Bai Yutang obviously didn't alarm anyone, but Guo Huai, who was in a hurry, turned around as if feeling something in his heart, just in time to see this scene in his eyes.He was worried at first, and he was talking about Concubine Li. The next moment, such a ghostly figure appeared, how could he not pass out?

It is worth mentioning that at the moment of fainting, Guo Huai's last thought was not "my life is over", but "Concubine Li has become a ghost".

Then again, if Guo Huai passed out like this, it would be impossible for him to know that the ghost he saw was not Li Concubine's wronged soul, but Bai Yutang Bai Wuye.He also doesn't know that the talking civet cat is not the civet cat back then, but the real body of "Royal Cat" Zhan Zhao.

However, according to the situation where Guo Huai was awakened by His Majesty the Cat and heard His Majesty the Cat speak, even if he knew, it would not be much better. After all, not everyone can be like Bai Wuye after hearing the cat speak. , still so calm.

Guo Huai is just an ordinary person. After waking up in a trance, he heard the civet cat talking. He thought he had come to the underworld, and there was hell waiting for him in front of him. His complexion was like paper, his eyes were lost, and he was about to lose his soul. Out of body, His Majesty the Cat, who couldn't bear to be ignored, gave him a paw: "How dare you say you don't know me?"

Guo Huai came back to his senses from the beating, and then he looked at His Majesty Mao, his mind was blank and he couldn't recognize it.

At this moment, His Majesty the Cat suddenly realized that it scratched its belly, and it didn’t know how it did it. Its skin was completely peeled off, and when it was over, it opened its mouth and asked Guo Huai: “You should recognize it now.” Bar?"

Guo Huai: "!!!"

Guo Huai's eyes rolled, and he passed out again immediately.

His Majesty the Cat: "???"

His majesty the cat kept his skinless image, and turned to look at Gu Qing: "Pang Qing's family, what's going on?"

Gu Qing opened his eyes and said nonsense: "I think your image is so majestic that he was so shocked that he passed out."

His majesty the cat rested his flesh-colored chin with his paws: "I knew it!"

Bai Yutang rolled his eyes lightly under his eyelids, and said sarcastically, "Did you get thicker after your brain went bad?"

"Since Uncle Mao can't stand it anymore, please trouble Uncle Mao to help him put the 'skin' on." Gu Qing paused, and added in a slightly subtle tone: "Although he is now in the shape of a cat, but this way It's always indecent."

Bai Yutang didn't think much about it at first, but when Gu Qing reminded him, Bai Wuye couldn't help but think about it:

Isn't the "royal cat" without that layer of fur equivalent to being naked in human form?

Not to mention how unseemly it is, just asking him to put clothes on the other party, "I refuse."

Gu Qing expressed his incomprehension: "It's just wearing a skin. If Uncle Mao felt uncomfortable because of the association with the human form, then when he took off the skin just now, didn't Uncle Mao look at it?"

Bai Yutang: "..."

His majesty the cat is now threading its skin back, and he understood the conversation between Gu Qing and Bai Yutang slowly, and meowed twice: "Although the human form of the white mouse is strangely beautiful, but I am Civet cat, there is no possibility for us, white mouse, you should give up your heart!"

Instead of being angry, Bai Yutang laughed, and put his steel knife on the ground, cracking the bluestone slab.

Your Majesty the Cat: "!!"

It put on the skin almost three times, five times and two times, and then rushed towards Gu Qing, halfway through the rush, it turned back, aimed at Guo Huai who had fainted for the second time, swung his two paws left and right, and then uttered a word. Going back to Gu Qing's side, he let out a small sigh of relief.

God, are the mice so powerful now?

The scene was silent for a while.

Gu Qing was too embarrassed to imply that this stupid cat was "Nan Xia" Zhan Zhao. He cleared his throat and said, "This matter is of great importance. I have to go back to Wende Hall to ask His Majesty for instructions. As for Uncle Mao, if someone asks What happened to the floor tiles in Qihan Palace, you just say that you don't know anything, and without evidence like this, I won't seek compensation from you."

Bai Yutang: "..."

Heck, let's be serious.

Gu Qing came out to change clothes, and changed for a while, it was time to go back to Wende Hall.

Gu Qing left with His Majesty Mao just as soon as he said he was leaving, without discussing with Bai Yutang at all how to deal with the half-dead Guo Huai.Bai Wuye soon realized this, he frowned, and thought about it carefully, Gu Qing was not surprised when he heard that Guo Huai's concubine's soul was even involved in the former emperor, and He didn't wait for Guo Huai to wake up and question him again, it is very likely that he already knew about it.

But this royal strife is not what Bai Yutang cares most about.What he cared about most was the "Royal Cat" Zhan Zhao. Based on the civet cat's stupid appearance just now, Bai Yutang really couldn't imagine that Nan Xia, who was praised by people in the Jianghu, actually looked so stupid.But if he took care of Qing and said that he was injured and turned into this appearance, it would be different from the news he heard earlier in the Kaifeng mansion.

The chattering servant in the Kaifeng mansion was talking, but he said that the guard was wearing an official fourth-rank official uniform, and followed Mr. Bao to the palace to attend the banquet.In other words, Zhan Zhao was still in human form before going to the banquet, so what kind of accidents could he encounter in the palace?

The more Bai Wuye thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He wished he could go to Wende Hall to find out more clearly, but he couldn't leave this eunuch who might have wronged him.After thinking about it, Bai Yutang came up with an idea. He took out an obsidian from his sleeve, and after jumping onto the beam of the Han Palace, he flicked it to a large acupuncture point on Guo Huai's body, knocking Guo Huai out of a coma. After waking up again, without waiting for Guo Huai to come back to his senses again, Bai Yutang imitated a female voice: "Guo Huai, who do you think I am?"

Speaking of that day at Yang’s Ancestral Hall in Luohe Town, Gu Qing learned female vocals so lifelike, and when Bai Yutang was going to deceive the townspeople of Luohe Town one day later, he didn’t want Gu Qing to dub him, so Gu Qing handed it over to him. How to learn female voice.Bai Yutang was originally clever, and he learned it in a short time. Although he is not so proficient and authentic in using it now, it is more than enough to deceive Guo Huai.

At that moment, Guo Huai was so frightened that he wanted to go out of his body again and again. Without Bai Yutang saying more, he made a plan with Empress Dowager Liu, and used a skinned civet cat to replace Li Concubine's emperor, so that Li Concubine After being thrown into the cold palace, how did the first emperor let Concubine Li die after a few years?

It turned out that after Concubine Li gave birth to the evildoer, she was thrown into the cold palace by Zhenzong, and was not given to death.Six years later, the emperor's son born to Concubine Liu De also died. Zhenzong had no choice but to adopt the third son of the eight virtuous kings as his heir. Zhao Zhen was admitted to the palace back then, and happened to pass by the cold palace, and saw the emaciated Concubine Li, probably because of the nature of mother and child, Zhao Zhen couldn't stop crying at that time.

After Concubine Liu De knew about this matter, Concubine Liu De became suspicious. Thinking about Zhao Zhen being the son of the Baxian King, but he resembled Zhenzong, she suspected that Chen Lin, who was ordered to take Concubine Li's child out of the palace and kill him There is Kou Zhuyang who obeys Yin and violates it.

But when Kou Zhu was found, Kou Zhu would never tell the truth back then, and died because of this. This made Concubine Liu De suspect that things had changed back then, so she didn't plan to keep Concubine Li, so she decided to He slandered Zhenzong, saying that Concubine Li not only refused to repent in the cold palace, but also cursed the officials every day.

Zhenzong was furious, so he decreed to kill Concubine Li.

Guo Huai, as her confidant, knew everything Concubine Liu De had done, that's why she came to the cold palace to collect Concubine Li's wronged soul.

Bai Yutang heard Guo Huai's words clearly from the beam, suppressed his anger for now, and asked Guo Huai to take him to the Empress Dowager Liu, "I have a lot to say to Sister Liu."

Guo Huai nodded hurriedly.

Let's not talk about how "Concubine Li" followed Guo Huai to Renshou Palace, and later, "Sisterhood" with Mrs. Liu, just let's talk about Gu Qing taking His Majesty the cat back to the Wende Palace, where the monarchs and ministers enjoyed themselves happily , but the atmosphere seems a little subtle.

Gu Qing was secretly guessing, and Grand Master Pang, whose face was flushed from drinking, beckoned him over: "Yuanying, you must not know what happened just now."

Gu Qing retracted his gaze and said, "Although I know it's related to Mr. Bao, you should tell me."

Grand Master Pang choked up, and complained half-truthfully, "Don't say the first half of the sentence—"

The thing is like this, because after drinking for three rounds, there are not a few courtiers who have to change their clothes.Like Master Jiang, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, he went to change his clothes a little drunk, and when he came out of the changing room, the night wind blew so hard that his eyes were blurred, but he saw two white lights suddenly lit up a few steps away, The two white lights opened and closed, and said: "The candle has just gone out, Mr. Jiang, pay attention to your steps."

Master Jiang was startled awake immediately, and accidentally "howled".

At this time, a palace official came over with a palace lantern, Master Jiang took a closer look, and realized that the two white lights were the teeth of Bao Zheng, the prefect of Kaifeng.Because it was too dark, Bao Zheng merged with the night, leaving only two rows of teeth and a pair of eyes, and Mr. Jiang was still a little bit drunk, so there was such a not-so-good misunderstanding.

Fortunately, he came out of the locker room instead of entering the locker room, otherwise the scene might have been even more embarrassing.

In order to resolve this wave of embarrassment, Mr. Jiang joked about it when he came back, not to mention that he was not the first "victim" - ever since "Qi Erniang" became popular, he can blend in with the night Master Bao didn't know how many people were accidentally injured.

And Grand Master Pang relayed this incident to his son, just to watch the fun and not think it was a big deal.

As for Gu Qing, he glanced at Bao Zheng after listening.

Bao Zheng has big ears, a wide mouth and a slight beard, his dark face is full of light, his shining eyes are exposed, he is born with a blessing, his looks are majestic, and black is really black, but now in Gu Qing's eyes, Bao Zheng is It's a layer of golden light all over the body, obviously not an ordinary person.

Gu Qing lowered his eyes halfway, Grand Master Pang gloated and asked, "Yuanying, what do you think?"

Gu Qing said "Oh": "Master Jiang doesn't understand Master Bao's tricks?"

Grand Master Pang: "..." What is this mess?

I always felt that if I was not careful, the father and son would chat to death again. At this time, another voice full of vitality sounded in Gu Qing's ears: "Zhenzong is above, my cat's eyes are about to be blinded!"

His Majesty the Cat now dared to crawl out from Gu Qing's sleeves because others couldn't see it or hear it speak, and Bao Zheng and the others dodged it as soon as he raised his eyes. Eye.It lifted its front paws and rubbed its eyes, and was flicked again, then turned its back and turned its head to Gu Qing: "Pang Qing's family, didn't you agree to report Guo Huai's matter to me?" ? Why don't you go?"

It still calls Zhao Zhen "Zhen" until now, and Gu Qing said that to Bai Yutang just now, but he just went out to change clothes, and has never seen Guo Huai at all, so why report what he did to Bai Yutang? What did the officials say?

Well, Gu Qing just wanted to see how Bai Yutang would handle this matter.

After a quarter of an hour, Gu Qing waited for what he was waiting for.

A eunuch from Renshou Palace came to report that "Renshou Palace has run out of water", Zhao Zhen immediately put down the wine glass in his hand, took his servants out of Wende Palace, and rushed to Renshou Palace.

When such a thing happened, the courtiers could not continue to eat and drink in the Wende Hall carelessly, and got up and left the Wende Hall one after another.They can't go to the Renshou Palace, but they can pray outside the Wende Palace for the safety of the Queen Mother.

Zhan Zhao followed Bao Zheng's side, and said in a low voice, "My lord, I have never seen thick smoke or flames."

Bao Zheng was stunned: "Could it be that someone sent a false message to lead the official's family to Renshou Palace?"

Immediately, Bao Zheng didn't care too much, so he let Zhan Zhao quietly follow him to escort him.

Zhan Zhao got the order, and followed him silently with his Juque sword in his hand. When he arrived at the Renshou Palace, he saw a man acting suspiciously.Seeing that he pretended not to be a guard in the palace, Zhan Zhao hesitated for a moment as soon as he saw that he seemed to turn around and run away, but he didn't rush to follow, for fear of falling into the opponent's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

But the other party seemed to expect him to do this, and flew towards the Renshou Palace a few times, so Zhan Zhao had to follow.Soon Zhan Zhao caught up with the suspicious person. The person stayed in front of the screen wall of Renshou Palace, and when Zhan Zhao came, he attacked him. , no longer dodge, and fight him.

What Zhan Zhao didn't know was that the two of them were coming and going in front of the screen wall, but the ghostly figure was passing through the screen wall. Combined with the candlelight in Renshou Palace, people could be seen in Renshou Palace. In the eyes of Guo Huai and Empress Dowager Liu, who had ghosts in their hearts, they became ghosts.

Guo Huai trembled and said, "Madam, it's Madam Li."

At this time, the sound of gold and iron horses came again, which made the hearts of the master and servant tremble again.

At this time, Zhao Zhen had brought his servants to Renshou Palace, and he already felt that something was wrong when he was approaching Renshou Palace.The Renshou Palace didn't run out of water at all, and the little eunuch who came to report the letter had disappeared. Zhao Zhen's heart was twisted and turned, and he asked the guards to come to escort him, and at the same time asked the servants around him to dispatch the Imperial Forest Army to do all this well. Then he came to Renshou Palace.

At this time, Renshou Palace was almost an empty palace, Zhao Zhen sneered in his heart, he wanted to see what the Queen Mother would do this time?Is it possible to force the palace to rebel?

This is really not the case, but after Zhao Zhen entered the Renshou Palace without being notified, the whispers between Guo Huai and Empress Dowager Liu heard by the side were not much different from forcing the palace to rebel.

Zhao Zhen immediately ordered the Imperial Army to surround the Renshou Palace, and after pondering for a while, he asked the servant to send his brother-in-law over.

At this time, it can be seen who Zhao Zhen trusts the most among all the civil and military officials.

As for Gu Qing, when he saw the servant who came to look for him with a serious face, he knew that Zhao Zhen had heard the "truth" uttered by Empress Dowager Liu and Guo Huai.Sure enough, when he came to visit Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen explained the matter concisely, and finally said: "Yuanying, I ordered you to investigate this matter thoroughly."

"The minister leads the order."

A lot of things happened on the night of the Double Ninth Festival, and when Gu Qing returned to Dali Temple Qingfu, it was already the end of Haishi, and it was about to arrive at Zishi.

It's just that today is destined to be an eventful day, as soon as Gu Qing entered the study, a hidden weapon came through the air.

Gu Qing avoided the hidden weapon, and said in a calm and unhurried manner, "Uncle Mao, have you seen the real 'Royal Cat' Zhan Zhao?"

He really had the nerve to say that Bai Yutang, who had been tricked for so long, laughed angrily at Gu Qing's brazenness: "Why didn't you say that it was the 'Royal Cat' that turned back into a human form?"

Gu Qing followed suit and said, "If it makes you feel at ease, I don't mind."

Bai Yutang gritted his teeth and said, "I, mind, mind."

Gu Qing sighed, "Since this is the case, then I can only tell the truth."

Bai Yutang squinted at him, wanting to see what ivory he could spit out.

"The fact that the civet cat can spit out people's words is really shocking. If you don't make any preparations, you will ask Uncle Mao to bump into you, and you will be shocked and leave your soul. What should I do?" Gu Qing said with sincerity, Bai Yutang But he said unkindly: "So you pretended that he was the 'Royal Cat' Zhan Zhao, and it was for my own good, right?"

Gu Qing said sincerely: "Uncle Mao is really smart."

The ice-snow and smart Fifth Master Bai, now has the heart to eat Gu Qing raw, but before he could do it again, Gu Qing said again: "The government gave me full power to investigate the 'civet cat for prince' case, when the time comes Undoubtedly, Uncle Mao will testify in court."

Bai Yutang didn't like this: "Hmph!"

Gu Qing didn't care about his attitude, and continued to say in a gentle tone: "Speaking of which, this matter can be revealed to the world, it is thanks to Uncle Mao that you bumped into the sneaky Guo Huai, and tricked him to reveal the truth back then. .I will tell the officials all about this one by one.”

Bai Yutang looked at Gu Qing suspiciously, "You knew about this before, right?"

"I know, but it told me that." Gu Qing fished out His Majesty the cat, who was lying on his back, from his sleeve, "I can't tell the officials that the reason why I know what happened back then is The civet cat involved in the case told me."

Bai Yutang heard the meaning behind his words, looked at His Majesty Mao and said, "You mean?"

Gu Qing nodded, "It's the civet cat that was skinned back then."

Bai Yutang said with disgust, "No wonder you're so stupid."

Hearing this, Gu Qing looked sideways at Bai Yutang for a week.

Bai Yutang's scalp was numb from his sizing up, and he said angrily, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to say why I don't see your knife?" Bai Yutang usually used a steel knife in addition to the obsidian that he used as a hidden weapon.That steel knife is not a famous knife, unlike Zhan Zhao's Juque sword, it is a famous ancient sword, and it is said that it was forged by Ou Yezi, a famous swordsmith in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Bai Yutang rolled his eyes and said stiffly, "It doesn't matter to you."

Let the arrogant Bai Wuye tell Gu Qing that his steel knife was cut off by Zhan Zhao's Juque sword when he was fighting with Zhan Zhao, and that was really harder than killing him.

Gu Qing didn't expose him, just said: "It's getting late now, Uncle Mao, why don't you stay in the guest room of my house? Tomorrow morning, you and I will go to investigate the case of 'civet cat for prince'."

"When did I say I wanted to investigate the case with you?"

Bai Wuye said so, but when Gu Qing started to investigate the "civet cat for the prince" case, he still came to help.

The "civet cat for the prince" case is actually very clear, but after investigation, something unexpected was found:

Concubine Li may not be dead.

When Empress Dowager Liu came forward to slander Zhenzong and Zhenzong ordered to kill Concubine Li, Qin Feng, the chief eunuch of the Han Palace, got the news in advance and asked Yu Zhong, a young eunuch who looked exactly like Concubine Li, to replace Concubine Li. The opportunity to return home brought Concubine Li back to her hometown of Chenzhou.

And Zhao Zhen is indeed Concubine Li's biological son. Kou Zhu didn't take him out of the palace back then, but handed him over to Chen Lin and sent him to the Eight Sage Kings. He was brought up by the Eight Sage Kings. After the death of Zhenzong, he became the new prince.

As soon as Zhao Zhen heard that his imperial concubine Li might still be alive, he hurriedly handed over the task of going to Chenzhou to find Li Concubine to his brother-in-law, telling him to find Li Concubine, but Li Concubine had unfortunately passed away. , then the bones of Concubine Li must be moved back to the imperial mausoleum, and posthumously named the queen mother.

Let's not talk about the "civet cat for the prince" case, the succession and transition are so dramatic, just the official family, he seems to have forgotten that Gu Qing is just the minister of the Dali Temple, and he manages the prison, so it's not a royal matter.But officials are so capricious, since he asked Gu Qing to take care of this matter, Gu Qing really had to investigate Qin Feng carefully, and then went to Chenzhou to find Qin Feng and Concubine Li.

Just go.

Gu Qing also found an old case related to Chenzhou from Dali Siqing, thinking of closing the old case along the way.

And because Zhao Zhen was in a hurry, Gu Qing only brought Pang Xie, not the servants of the Pang family that Grand Master Pang gave him when he went out on weekdays, so he left Bianliang City in such a light car, and went to Chenzhou Mansion.Bai Yutang was also traveling with him, and Bai Wuye didn't realize until he got out of Bianliang City: "Why should I go to Chenzhou with you?"

Gu Qing pondered for a while, and gave a seemingly convincing answer: "Do good things to the end?"

Bai Yutang retorted: "If you want, I can also send you to the West."

Gu Qing asked back: "Is it just based on your current martial arts?"

A flirtatious sentence made Bai Wuye furious, and if he disagreed with him, he patted his horse and walked forward, leaving Gu Qing with a handsome back.

After a while, Pang Xie was confused and said to Gu Qing: "Master, isn't that the way to Chenzhou?"

Gu Qing smiled slightly and said, "I know."

Half an hour later, Bai Wuye, who had gone the wrong way, was as black as Master Bao.

In this way, their group went to Chenzhou Mansion, but they didn't know that less than ten days after they left, "Nanxia" Zhan Zhao, as usual, had finished patrolling the streets of Kaifeng Mansion with Wang Chao Mahan and the others, and took the food shop Stuffed eggplant (a type of pasta that uses hollowed out tender eggplant as skin, stuffed with meat stuffing, and finally sealed with noodles, and steamed in a basket) bought in Kaifeng. The anxious man blocked the way.

One of them asked, "Zhan Zhao, where did you hide my fifth brother?"

Zhan Zhao: "???"

It turns out that these four people are the four rats of Trapped Sky Island, "Drilling Rat" Lu Fang, "Chedi Rat" Han Zhang, "Crossing Rat" Xu Qing, and "Fanjiang Rat" Jiang Ping. The reason to stop "Royal Cat" Zhan Zhao is because they can't find their fifth younger brother "Golden Mouse" Bai Yutang!

The author has something to say: Here it is defaulted that Brother Qing has never traveled to this world before, so Brother Qing does not know the truth about the replacement of the civet cat for the prince =v=
