red dust robbery

At this moment, the news that Mr. Bao has blasphemed the sky in the early court has spread throughout the Kaifeng mansion.

Zhan Zhao's expression was unbelievable: "What, Mr. Gongsun, how could this happen?"

"Guard Zhan." Gongsun said with a helpless expression, "This matter has already spread all over the capital, so can there be fake news?"

While talking, the two hurried towards the study room, before they reached the door, they heard the startled sound of yelling in the study room, Bao Zheng ran out dancing, laughing and cursing, his expression seemed to be in a daze Normally, Dynasty Mahan behind him hurriedly followed behind and shouted all the way, but was severely left behind.

"grown ups!"

Zhan Zhao was startled, and called out, but saw that Bao Zheng didn't respond, and was running around in the yard, so he had to look at Gongsun, and the wise and resourceful Gongsun Ce finally showed doubts. A worried look: "Guard Zhan, look, this..."

However, Zhan Zhao calmed down. He looked coldly at Bao Zheng's playful and lifeless eyes, closed them slightly, searched for similar fragments in his memory, opened them suddenly, and took a deep breath: " If you suffer, your lord must have suffered from the Dharma king's way!"

"You mean..."

"It's the art of soul-hunting, which controls the mind of the adults." Zhan Zhao slowly shook his head, "At this moment, the adults don't even know what they are doing."

"So, what should we do?"

Zhan Zhao sighed, the sky eye between his brows is an extremely powerful offensive magic weapon, but it doesn't have much effect on such a long-range mind control technique, maybe...

Just as he was thinking, as if he had sensed something, his brows slightly raised, and when he raised his eyes, he suddenly saw blue lotus blossoms shining from mid-air, and thousands of auspicious lights locked Bao Zheng's body, and everyone in the courtyard exclaimed.

"Lotus Lantern!"

His heart moved, and he looked up, only to see the woman in the light yellow dress standing on the eaves of the roof, the seven-inch lotus platform shining brightly, Bao Zheng's almost mad body was struggling violently in the divine light, the lotus Hua Rui's Qi was flickering and flickering, and after a long stalemate, Bao Zheng's physical struggle gradually slowed down, gradually calmed down, and he collapsed on the ground as if all his strength had been taken away.

The divine light of the cyan lotus lamp suddenly converged.

Yang Chan turned off the lamp, but staggered and fell to the ground.

Zhan Zhao was startled, his body had already reacted, he jumped into the air on his toes, a swallow flew up into the air, hugged her by the waist, and slowly fell to the ground.

When she concentrated her attention, the graceful and gentle woman was already pale, dripping with cold sweat, leaning weakly in his arms, she was obviously too weak to speak, her eyes met his, but she slowly opened her lips corners, lips and teeth move slightly, Zhan Zhao's heart trembles slightly when he sees it.

"Yang Chan—"

Almost at the same time, in the Dharma altar of the Grand Master's Mansion, He Lianpeng spurted out a mouthful of blood, which shocked all the disciples under his sect to exclaim.

"Well, you Yang Chan, you actually used the lotus lamp to break my Dharma soul!" He Lianpeng propped himself up with a ferocious expression on his face, "Okay, okay, I don't believe it, I can't lock his soul, Yang Chan , Bao Zheng's life is in your hands!"

He sat up straight, and was about to do it again, but he heard a commotion outside, people shouting and neighing, the chaos was in utter chaos, and in the panic, someone shouted: "It's bad, someone has taken Sanwa'er away!"

Then Pang Ji said loudly and angrily: "Quick! Stop them!"

He Lianpeng's heart moved, his eyebrows frowned, and he flew up and landed in the courtyard. He saw the guards of the Grand Master's Mansion rushing from all directions with swords, guns, swords and halberds, surrounding a thin young man with a light-colored bunt. A short ax with faint divine light, blocking attacks from all directions, and holding a short doll covered with roots in his right hand, that is exactly——

Shenbaer!

He Lianpeng's eyes lit up, and he was about to make a move, but saw the young man's sword burst out with a cold light, instantly forcing the besieger general to retreat three feet, and then jumped onto the wall with Shen Wa.

He Lianpeng's eyes showed a cold light, he made a big handprint and attacked the young man, but saw a purple glow flashing in the air, a girl in scarlet clothes held a sword to block the golden light of the handprint.

"Chen Xiang, take Shen Baby and go first!" She turned her head and shouted at the boy.

"Xiaoyu!" Chen Xiang hesitated for a while, but didn't hesitate much, and took Shenba to change into a golden light and fled into the distance.

"Smelly girl!" He Lianpeng was angry from the heart, and the purple demon light hit the sky, "How dare you spoil my good deed!"

The girl raised her eyebrows, her pretty face showed no signs of fear, she just raised her arms indifferently, and raised her palms like knives: "Splitting the sky—God's palm—"

The huge roar shook the entire Grand Master's Mansion.

The sky has gradually darkened.

Zhan Zhao lit a lamp in the guest room, and the faint light illuminated the pale cheeks of the woman on the bed.

He sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her, and the memory drifted far away for a moment.

He remembered how well-behaved and thoughtful she was when she gave him the bracelet to please his fiancée when she was a child, how kind and brave she was when she held up a lantern to send the poor to the water, how gentle and considerate she was for thousands of years, and how she shouted to her siblings when she was shocked to hear of her husband's death and her son's death. The desolation and sadness of "I hate you", the thousand-year-old brothers and sisters, love and hatred, are all fetters.

He thought of her, now it should be a family reunion, right?

The door opened with a creak, Ah Jiu walked in quietly, looked at him, and then at the woman lying on the bed: "How is it?"

"It should be that urging the lotus lamp consumes too much internal energy, and it will be fine after a rest." Zhan Zhao said slowly, "What's wrong with your lord?"

"Already awake." Ah Jiu said, "Mr. Gongsun is looking after him."

"I'm worried he'll remember what happened before."

"This... I'm afraid I can't hide it." Ah Jiu paused, "The rumors are spreading so badly, if you press me again..."

Zhan Zhao was silent for a long time.

Suddenly, a yamen servant hurriedly ran in: "Master Zhan, Master Zhan, there is a..."

Seeing his incoherent appearance, Zhan Zhao frowned: "Speak clearly."

The yamen servant opened his mouth, but his expression was indescribable: "Go out and have a look!"

Zhan Zhao paused for a moment, took off his robe, and stepped out of the room.

As soon as he arrived in the courtyard, he suddenly saw a black shadow flashing in front of him, and a black fine dog jumped into his arms and barked happily a few times.

"Howling dog?"

Zhan Zhao showed surprise on his face, but the corner of his mouth involuntarily raised, he hugged it in his arms, and patted his head.

Just as I was about to say something, I heard a trembling voice behind me, with a bit of disbelief, but also joyful: "Uncle...Uncle..."

Zhan Zhao's body paused slightly.

He turned around, and in the silent twilight, a young man stood under the dim light of the sky, staring at him blankly, with some joy, some admiration, and some helplessness in his eyes.

"Uncle...it's really you, mother, she really found you!" The young man rushed to the front, with a bit of crying, and bent down to bow down, "Uncle, I'm sorry...I... "

Zhan Zhao reached out to lift his arm, stopping his movement.

Looking at the young man who should be called Liu Chenxiang with clear eyes, he didn't speak for a long time.

After a long time, he withdrew his hand, did not respond to his address, but patted his shoulder, and said indifferently: "Go ahead and see your mother."

He turned his gaze, but followed to see the baby Shen who was holding the young man's hand: "This is..."

"Shen Waer?" Ah Jiu stood at the door and hurried up, "Chen Xiang, did you succeed?"

Chen Xiang nodded: "It's just that Xiaoyu stayed behind and didn't know if he got away. I went back to the inn and didn't see my mother, so I brought Uncle Xiaotiangou over here first."

Zhan Zhao nodded slightly, and was about to say something, when he heard footsteps in the distance, Wang Chao trotted over: "Lord Zhan, it's too bad, Grand Master Pang brought someone over to deliver an edict, it seems to be about your offending His Majesty!"

Everyone was shocked.

Zhan Zhao's face darkened, and he only glanced at Chen Xiang: "Take Shen Baby into the room first."

"Following the heavens, the emperor said, the law is the measure of the world, and the ruler of the people is also the yardstick. Therefore, those who stand below will not be abandoned above. The criminal minister Bao Zheng knows that the law violates discipline, and according to the law, the crime is unforgivable. Weigu thinks that he is honest and honest, and his merits are in the country. He is allowed to pardon his death crimes according to Pang Qing's proposal, remove him from power, demote his officials and return to the land, and expel him from the capital. The guards and advisers are not allowed to accompany him. Thank you!"

When Zhan Zhao rushed to the front hall, all the people had already knelt on the ground. Pang Ji triumphantly finished reading the imperial decree, unable to hide his gloating smile, and did not forget to pretend to lean down and hand over the yellow silk in his hand.

"Whether you accept this favor or not, this old man has done his best to save your life. This old man doesn't want you to thank you. Before noon tomorrow, you have to leave Tokyo City. You can clearly hear the Holy Majesty's words The decree is made, and the counselors and guards are not allowed to accompany you. Receive the decree and thank you!"

When the voice fell to the ground, the room was filled with silence.

Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and the other four who were kneeling behind had faint anger on their faces.

After a while, a dynasty shouted angrily: "Lord Bao is wronged!"

"Bold and presumptuous!" Pang Ji yelled angrily, "during the announcement of the edict, you dare to make noise and harass, you Kaifeng disciples really want to rebel?"

Wang Chao was drunk by him, his face was still angry, and he wanted to say something more, but he saw Zhan Zhao knelt on the ground with his hands on the ground, lowered his head, and said in a cold voice, "Why should the grand master be angry? Master Bao is wronged or not, the Grand Master knows it well!"

Pang Ji heard the sarcasm in his words, and the anger on his face became even stronger. He was about to say something, but saw Zhan Zhao knelt and did not move. When he raised his eyes, there was a threatening cold light, which made him take a step back in shock.

That wasn't the look that a gentle and elegant imperial guard should have on a daily basis.

"Bao Zheng, is this how you usually discipline your subordinates?!"

Bao Zheng only sighed, and gave everyone a comforting look. Although the eyes were calm and deep, they were irresistibly majestic. Finally, Zhan Zhao and the others stopped talking.

Pang Ji smiled again on his old face, seeing Bao Zheng accepting the imperial edict, everyone stood up, stroked their beards again, smiled, waved their hands, and a group of officers and soldiers rushed in.

Bao Zheng finally changed his face: "What is Grand Master Pang's intention!"

"According to the emperor's order, from now on, this old man will temporarily take over the post of Kaifeng governor. Now this mansion is taken over by this old man!"

Pang Ji only smiled coldly, and passed a wink. A group of guards and soldiers had broken up into several teams and rushed into the backyard.

Everyone gasped.

Even a calm person like Gongsun Ce couldn't suppress his anger: "Master Pang, you—"

But Zhan Zhao calmed down, looked coldly for a moment, then turned around suddenly, saw Ah Jiu and Chen Xiang had entered at some point, their eyes met, and they nodded knowingly.

His heart skipped a beat, he turned silently and walked towards the back door.

"Stop!" Pang Ji stopped him sharply, "Zhan Zhao, where are you going?"

Zhan Zhao paused, but didn't speak.

Chen Xiang leaned closer and whispered: "Uncle, don't pay attention to him, let's go to the palace to meet the emperor, I have my own way to prove Wen Quxing's innocence."

Before Zhan Zhao could open his mouth, Pang Ji said coldly: "Zhan Zhao, if you want to enter the palace to face the Holy Spirit, I would like to advise you, you should get rid of this idea as soon as possible!"

Zhan Zhao looked back at him, his eyes were calm and indifferent, but there was a faint threat.

Pang Ji was a little startled. For some reason, he only felt that Zhan Zhao, the royal cat who was usually gentle and courteous, now looked like a dagger that had been tempered, exuding a terrifying and murderous aura.

Is this... an illusion?

"Zhan was entrusted with the imperial title, and he is a fourth-rank imperial guard with a sword." Zhan Zhao's voice came loudly, "Don't you need the grand master's permission to enter the palace?"

Pang Ji calmed down: "The fourth-rank guard in front of the imperial court, the old man naturally knows. You can enter the palace, of course, but he—"

He pointed at Chen Xiang, the young man who made a big fuss in his grand master's residence just now, showing cruelty: "This brat of unknown origin is not allowed!"

The young man who once caused troubles in heaven and hell snorted coldly: "If I want to enter the palace, can you stop me!"

Before he finished speaking, he already had an ax in his hand.

Pang Ji, who had seen how powerful he was, subconsciously took a step back, but suddenly took out a bunch of fox fur from his sleeve.

Chen Xiang changed color in shock: "Xiaoyu!"

Zhan Zhao was startled, and it took him a while to realize that the little fox who almost became Yang Jian's daughter in Wanku Mountain back then was not a spirit fox with pure red round hair?

Her fur fell into Pongy's hands, so that means—

Suddenly, a surge of anger made him hold Zhanlu tightly.

However, Chen Xiang couldn't hold back and took a step forward: "What did you do to Xiaoyu!"

"Don't worry, she's fine!" Pang Ji was obviously satisfied with their reaction, "However, if you dare to act rashly again, what you will see next time is not just a bunch of fox fur, but a pile of fox fur!"

"You're despicable!" The young man was furious, and the sharp ax in his hand glowed coldly, as if he was about to take someone's life in the next second, but he didn't make a move after all, because Zhan Zhao had already held his shoulder firmly.

Ah Jiu sighed deeply, took a step forward, and approached him: "Stop being in a stalemate with them, and listen carefully to the movement in the backyard, those guards seem to be searching for something!"

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows: "Shen baby!"

Everyone secretly exchanged glances, but they didn't know what to do. The turmoil in the backyard gradually subsided, and the search was probably over. The chief guard rushed all the way to report: "Master, come back and forth, and found nothing!"

Pang Ji's face darkened, but he remained calm.

He waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat, and then glanced at the crowd again: "It's nothing, Bao Zheng, you should pack up and leave the city quickly, and the staff and guards in the mansion have also moved out to wait for their release. This old man will take over here!"

After all, he led his attendants, lined up the guard of honor, and walked away.

Zhan Zhao didn't have time to vent his dissatisfaction, so he took Ah Jiu and Chen Xiang, got away and went straight to the guest room in the backyard, but saw that the lights were still on, and Shen Wa and the sleeping Yang Chan had disappeared.

There was only one black dog, squatting in front of the door, and it jumped up when it saw him.

"Uncle Xiaotiangou, where is my mother and Shenba?"

Chen Xiang couldn't help but wanted to ask, the black dog barked a few times, but Zhan Zhao understood it, and patted his head: "Your mother took Shen baby away, Chen Xiang, you take the Xiaotian dog to catch up first." She, He Lianpeng will probably find trouble with her."

Chen Xiang heard that his mother's safety was involved, so he didn't care too much, nodded, and left with Xiaotiangou.

But Zhan Zhao never heaved a sigh of relief, turning his head, looking at the brightly lit front hall in the long night, there was a gloomy look between his brows.
