Palace Master's Road to Unification

Ziheng was sitting on top of the main hall, today's Xingluo Hall was very lively, the three protectors of the former Qiushui Palace knelt under the stage, bowing their heads to her, it's a pity that one person was missing.

"Where is Yunshu?"

Qingying replied: "Yun Shu has returned to Broken Star Villa."

"I just asked her to pass on the message, but she took advantage of this time to slip away. I wanted to see what it would be like for the four guardians to reunite."

Rui Yao snorted coldly: "The scene where I want to kill you."

Ziheng didn't take Rui Yao's provocative words seriously: "If you want to kill me, you have to be born again and change to a good bone, maybe you still have a chance."

Rui Yao couldn't say no to Ziheng, so he could only grind his teeth, "No need!"

"I will give you a chance to talk about your own thoughts,"

Rui Yao said indifferently, "I have no idea."

First she was defeated by Ziheng, and then captured by Qingying, she really doesn't have any thoughts now, if she did, she would kill Ziheng, but it's better not to say anything to prevent the other party from dealing with herself.

Ziheng looked at Huangli, with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "Huangli Protector, it's finally been possible to talk, I think you must have a lot to say."

Huang Li sneered coldly: "If you want to kill or cut, it's up to you."

Ziheng was slightly surprised: "It's really not like what you would say."

"If I say that I am willing to follow you, do you believe me? Please let me go, will you?" I felt ridiculous as I said it.

Zi Heng nodded in satisfaction: "You are very self-aware."

She won't trust Huangli, nor will she let her go.

Huangli sneered and stopped answering.

Zi Heng's eyes turned to Mu Jin who had not spoken all the time, "Does Mu Jin have anything to say?"

"Why are you doing this?"

Ziheng was noncommittal to Mu Jin's question: "The two of them have nothing to say, but you are asking nonsense."

"Although you are usually at odds with us, you were also saved by the palace lord. Why did you kill her?"

"There is only one reason for me to kill people, and that is that she blocked my way."

Mu Jin closed his eyes, ready to die: "In this case, you can do it."

But Zi Heng sighed: "You guys can't die yet."

"If you are dead, how can I lure Duan Wu here?"

She had promised Ruan Qiushui that she would not send anyone to chase and kill Duan Wu. Since she made a promise, she would keep her promise, but if the other party came back on her own initiative, it would not be her breaking the promise.

Ziheng lingered in the hall with this sigh, and everyone who heard it felt cold.

"It seems that it is not the time to come down."

Ning Zheng had just entered the main hall, and saw this scene. The three people on the ground were the protectors of Qiushui Palace. In all likelihood, it was Zi Heng who was handling the palace affairs. It would be offensive for him to come in suddenly, but if he turned around and left It will appear that he has malicious intentions again, so he can only joke embarrassingly.

After Ning Zheng appeared, Qingying's eyes froze, and she asked loudly, "How did you get in here!"

"Just take this."

Ning Zheng spread out her palms, and a purple pearl lay quietly in her hands.

Even if Qingying understands that this thing is Ziheng's personal belonging, you can go anywhere in Jiuxiao Palace with it, and even enter here without anyone reporting, but this makes Qingying even more dissatisfied. Never gave it to her!Although she doesn't need this thing and can go in and out of any place, the meaning is indeed different.

Ning Zheng looked at Qingying's livid face, and asked in surprise, "The envoy Qingying doesn't seem very happy to see Ning Zheng."

"It's not like." It's just very unhappy.

Qingying didn't say the second half of the sentence, after all, she couldn't speak too directly in front of the palace lord.

Ziheng raised his eyes to look at Ning Zheng, who was wearing a luxurious black robe and a silver hair crown today, much more gorgeous than when he was wearing Tsing Yi, and even the taste in clothes has changed after becoming the head of the sect.

"What are you doing."

Ning Zheng smiled slightly and said: "Since I am the Palace Master's person now, I need to take a look at Jiuxiao Palace no matter what."

Ziheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "I hope you are here for this seat, not for other people."

Ning Zheng's smile remained unchanged: "Ning Zheng came here for the Palace Master."

Qingying laughed when she saw it, and couldn't help but mocked: "Slick tongue!"

"Qingying, take the three guardians into the dungeon."

"……Yes."

Qingying choked, and reluctantly led the three of them down, before leaving, she gave Ning Zheng a hard look.

After everyone retreated, Ziheng asked: "How is Yuchan Mountain?"

"everything is fine."

"I didn't expect you to be so trustworthy in their eyes."

Ning Zheng smiled and said: "It's just a small plan, the palace master is too famous."

According to the original plan, he pushed everything to Nangong Yun, but in just a few days, Yuchan Mountain was already in his hands, which was much smoother than expected.

Ziheng's tone was light: "Then I congratulate the head of Ning."

Hearing what Zi Heng said, Ning Zheng hurriedly bowed her head: "Palace Master Zhe Sha is a subordinate."

"I really like your humble attitude, but it's too pretentious, it's too hypocritical."

Ning Zheng raised her body, wisely chose not to continue this topic, and then took out a round jade plate from her sleeve.

"The palace lord has always wanted the jade toad before, and this subordinate's trip is also to present the treasure."

"Oh?"

A flash of surprise flashed in Ziheng's eyes, she had forgotten about it, but Ning Zheng still remembered it.

The toad is the moon, and the jade toad is a jade plate in the shape of a full moon. This jade is exquisite and clear, and has the effect of healing.

"But this jade can only make Mu Xuechuan less painful, and it doesn't have the effect of curing cold poison as rumored in the world."

"enough."

Mu Xuechuan recovered quickly, and she also learned the whole picture of the Broken Star Sword Technique one day earlier.

"How should this thing be used?"

"This thing should..."

Ning Zheng had just begun to speak, when a voice suddenly interrupted his next words.

Han Lu walked in from the outside: "Palace Master, Mr. Si is here."

"Let him in."

"Since the Palace Master has other things to do, this subordinate will leave first."

Ning Zheng was quite self-aware, seeing that Zi Heng wanted to entertain others, she took the initiative to leave.

"Wait a minute, Han Lu, take Ning Zheng to find Mu Xuechuan."

Han Lu blinked, and reluctantly replied: "Yes."

Mr. Nangong and Mr. Mu live in the same courtyard, so they will probably meet each other...

I hope she can pull away when Mr. Nangong and Mr. Ning fight...

Ziheng warned: "You can just tell Mu Xuechuan how to use this jade toad."

Ning Zheng smiled: "Yes, Ning Zheng obeyed."

As soon as Ning Zheng left this room, Si Guyan walked in, and the two passed by, smiling at each other politely, even though they were not familiar with each other.

Si Guyan was dressed in white, holding a folding fan in his hand, looking chic and coquettish, like a tree facing the wind.

As soon as he came in, he warmly greeted Ziheng: "Friend, long time no see."

Even after seeing her old friend, Ziheng's mood didn't fluctuate much, she was still indifferent: "I met you and me in Jiangnan a month ago."

Si Guyan opened the folding fan with a "swish" sound: "Isn't it just a day, it's like three autumns! So we haven't seen each other for several autumns."

Ziheng ignored Si Guyan's teasing words: "What do you want from me?"

Si Guyan looked sad, and shook his head in grief: "I've provided you with so much news, aren't you moved? Don't you have to have something to come to you!"

He was very indignant!

"This seat is very moved."

Ziheng's tone was so light that it was hard to tell what moved her.

"..."

Si Guyan blinked: "Okay..." He didn't care, and continued, "I sent someone to send you a round fan, did you receive it?"

Ziheng picked up the round fan at hand, and specially held it up for Si Guyan to see, "This one?"

Although he was far away, Si Guyan could still see the scene painted on the fan clearly. It was when he and Ziheng made friends and went boating and drinking in the south of the Yangtze River. Again, that's why I drew this dough fan, hoping that the other party can remember it as firmly as him.

But never expected!Ziheng actually added so many things to it, Si Guyan felt a little out of breath for a moment, seeing his beloved fan being spoiled like this, he was really heartbroken.

After a while, Sigu said earnestly: "Although I know my friend, your taste has always been extraordinary, but I will get angry if you do this."

Ziheng cast a sidelong glance at Si Guyan: "If you could be like your name, it wouldn't be like this."

His name is Guyan, but his own words are not ordinary, and it has nothing to do with the word Guyan.

Zi Heng said directly: "Tell me, who are you looking at again?"

"why do you say so?"

Si Guyan closed the folding fan, not understanding the meaning of Ziheng's words.

"You have a big brain problem today, it must be because you are frustrated in love."

Si Guyan ignored Ziheng's previous sentence: "I saw the most beautiful woman in the Jianghu."

There is only one recognized number one beauty in the world.

Ziheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Wen Youqin?"

Si Guyan nodded: "Yes, I thought this ranking was very unreliable before. Ji Meier, who is ranked third, is not as good-looking as You, who is ranked sixth. I think the ranking is very watery, but when I saw her, I just realized it. Knowing what it means to be shocked to be a celestial being is to know what it is to be a celestial being."

Zi Heng frowned when he heard a sentence that was both positive and negative.

Ziheng said coldly: "Although I am not interested in these rankings, I don't mind killing the first five."

Ziheng ranked sixth. The main reason is that among the unsmiling icebergs of the same kind, there are Han Zhi and Duan Wu. At the beginning of the ranking, Ziheng lost to Han Zhi in terms of popularity and Duan Wu in terms of purity. six.

Si Guyan hurriedly said: "Don't, don't, let's keep these beauties for viewing."

"But you can kill the second most handsome man in Jianghu."

Si Guyan smiled slightly and opened the folding fan.

He was in such a posture because he was ranked second and Nangong Yun was ranked first.

Seeing Nangong Yun talking further and further away, Ziheng reminded: "You have gone too far."

Si Guyan closed the folding fan: "Where did I just say that? Oh, after I saw Wen Youqin, I had a secret crush on her and sneaked into Taohuawu hoping to have a romantic encounter with her."

"Then?"

"She said she would treat me as an older brother, and then I fell out of love..."

Ziheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is this why you went crazy to me today?"

"I just broke up with a relationship, won't you comfort me?!"

Ziheng sneered: "If someone else told me so much, he would have already been decapitated."

Si Guyan took shelter and saluted: "I thank Palace Master Ziheng for tolerating me and loving me."

"What do you think of that just now?"

It was talking about Ning Zheng who passed by Si Guyan. In Si Guyan's standards, face is the first criterion, good looks are fine, men and women are not taboo.

Si Guyan thought for a while before he understood which one Zi Heng was talking about: "That is not the Ning Zheng from Yuchan Mountain. It looks good, but I can't afford it."

"If you like, I can order him not to do anything to you."

Si Guyan evaded: "It still won't work, I have a strong premonition that a rival in love must be easy to mess with."

When the two were chatting happily, Qingying came in and said: "Master, someone outside the palace is asking to see you."

Ziheng raised his brows: "Nine Heavens Palace is very lively today."

There have never been so many people visiting before.

"Who is outside the palace?"

Qingying replied: "The visitor did not report his family name, but said that the Palace Master knew it at the first sight."

"Where do you think Jiuxiao Palace is, anyone is eligible to see me?"

She really met a lot of people today, as if they had made an agreement, they all chose to come on the same day.

Qingying hurriedly said: "Palace master calm down, this subordinate also said so, but this person said that Lingyao is in his hands, so this subordinate has no choice but to come forward and report."

Ziheng frowned, calculating that Lingyao should have come back long ago, but she hasn't come back yet, which is really unusual.

"Let her in."

Qingying replied: "Yes."

"Since you have guests, I'll go first, and I'll go boating and drink when I have a chance."

Si Guyan sighed, closed the folding fan, smiled at Ziheng, turned around and left, Ziheng didn't ask to stay, after all, they still had a chance to meet.

After a while, Qingying came in with a person covered by a cloak. The face and figure of this person were all hidden in the black, making it difficult to see his appearance, and even his gender was uncertain.

He was always carrying a sack in his hand, half the height of a person, full of it, but he didn't feel tired, so he carried it with one hand all the way.

Qingying said: "Your Excellency has arrived, please meet with your true face."

She also has no intention of concealing her identity here. She put on a cloak just to prevent other people from seeing her. During this critical period, she must not be exposed. The man in black threw down the sack in his hand. When the sack fell to the ground, there was no heavy landing sound as expected, no? Something hard, she raised her hand and slowly eased the cloak. Under the black, there was a touch of bright white. Under the cloak was a face of stunning beauty and peerless beauty. Anyone who saw it would be fascinated by it. An orchid growing on Tianshan Mountain, standing in the dark Xingluo Temple, is so out of place, like a fairy falling into a magic cave, which is regrettable.

Seeing this face appearing here, although Ziheng was surprised, he remained calm and said, "It's you."

Qingying also recognized the person and was very surprised: "Hanzhi?!"

This person is the elder sister of the Qingnvzong, the eldest disciple of the former suzerain Fengdu, and the future suzerain of the Qingnvzong, Han Zhi who is known as the second beauty in the world.

"it's me."

The sound of Hanzhi was like a cold spring, as if the whole person had been soaked in the cold pool in the sky, and his body was covered with a layer of cold air that isolated from the world.

Qingying hurriedly asked: "Is Lingyao in your hands?"

"good."

Han Zhi readily admitted that she had no need to hide.

"This person pretends to be a member of our sect and spreads rumors outside."

When speaking, Han Zhi looked at the sack that was still on the ground.

Seeing that Han Zhi's gaze shifted downward, Qing Ying hurriedly stepped forward to untie the bag, and there was indeed a person lying inside.

A girl about fifteen or sixteen years old with a ponytail in a red dress was lying in the bag. It was Lingyao who hadn't returned for a long time.

Lingyao closed her eyes tightly and remained motionless, while Qingying looked dangerously at Hanzhi.

"She's fine, the road is too noisy, I ordered her bed."

Qingying immediately unlocked the sleeping hole for Lingyao, and after a while, Lingyao woke up from her dream.

"God, you let me go!"

Lingyao was not fully awake yet, but the first sentence she said was begging for mercy, it was hard to imagine what the other party had suffered.

Qingying patted Lingyao's face: "Wake up, I'm home."

Lingyao's mind was still in a haze, when she suddenly heard a familiar voice, she opened her eyes suddenly, and seeing the familiar scene, she was almost moved to tears.

"Youshi, I listened to what you said, so I pretended to be a member of various sects and spread rumors that the Palace Master has a crush on Mu Xuechuan!"

Qingying smiled slightly, very good, I sold her just after waking up.

Seeing that Lingyao woke up safely, Zi Heng shifted her eyes to Han Zhi: "She is spreading rumors about me, what does it have to do with you?"

Han Zhi's expression was cold and hard: "She is pretending to be a disciple of my Qingnv Sect, and she has conflicts with the Weisheng family."

Lingyao hurriedly defended herself: "It's not that I only used your Qingnvzong identity, I've also used other sect identities..."

Qingying frowned: "Then what happened to Weisheng's family?"

Ling Yao choked, and hurriedly said to Ziheng: "Palace Master, I can explain this!"

Ziheng said lightly: "No need, you go down first."

Lingyao's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly replied: "Yes!"

Trapped in the sack for a long time, she finally regained her freedom. After receiving an amnesty, Ling Yao quickly withdrew.

Zi Heng looked at Han Zhi: "You came here, you didn't come here just to ask me, Xingshi, for your crimes."

Han Zhi admitted: "That's true."

"Although Lingyao is young, no one can match her disguise. You must have spent a lot of time catching her. So what do you want to exchange with me?"

Han Zhi raised her eyes and fixedly looked at Ziheng: "I didn't catch this person, my target is you."

"Oh?" She didn't understand these words by then, waiting for Han Zhi's next words.

Han Zhi's eyes were firm: "I want you to help me get the position of the suzerain of the Qingnv Sect."

Qingying hesitated for a moment, and asked: "It is rumored that Fengdu passed on the suzerain position to you before his death, but you have not succeeded for a long time. I don't know why?"

"It was my junior sister Ji Meier who led her disciples to prevent me from inheriting the position of suzerain in the name of betraying my master, and sent additional people to monitor me for twelve hours. This Lingyao was also captured by her."

Qingying frowned, now the second disciple seems to like to have trouble with the elder brother or elder sister.

Zi Heng looked at Han Zhi: "Since you want me to help you, what would you give in exchange?"

Han Zhi raised her head, her eyes were extremely firm: "As long as you help me get the suzerain position, I will let the Qingnvzong merge into Jiuxiao Palace, and the Qingnvzong will respect you."

This is a very attractive condition, she will not waste any effort to regain the Qingnvzong, Zi Heng narrowed her eyes slightly, but this move is not worthwhile for Han Zhi, after the Qingnvzong merged into Jiuxiao Palace, there is no such thing as the suzerain What's the use of her being the suzerain?

Zi Heng stared into Han Zhi's eyes, but couldn't tell what the other was thinking.

And Qingying was shocked when she heard Han Zhi's words: "It's not worth it for you. If the Qingnvzong merges into my Jiuxiao Palace, your suzerain is just an empty shell."

Han Zhi shook her head and looked up at Zi Heng: "Even if I am asked to serve you and be your servant, I don't want Qing Nuzong to fall into Ji Meier's hands. Disgraceful teacher, I must get rid of her for my master and get back what I deserve."

"Okay, this seat promises you."

The corners of Zi Heng's mouth raised slightly, and there was a rare smile in her eyes. She liked Han Zhi's determination very much, and even agreed.

Then he said: "However, there is no need to serve. It is too condescending for you to be a maid. If the Qingnvzong can really be incorporated into the Jiuxiao Palace, you will be the left envoy of this seat, and the rights are no different from Qingying."

The corner of Qingying's mouth twitched, the second in command hadn't passed a few days, and another one who was equal to her came. Life is really capricious, with ups and downs...

Han Zhi knelt down on one knee: "I thank the Palace Master for your kindness."

From this angle, no one could see the light flashing in Han Zhi's eyes.

Ziheng nodded in satisfaction, this was the most satisfying thing for her today.

"However, this seat will be in retreat in a few days. It will take one month to help you regain the Qingnvzong. If you need anything during this period, you can directly contact Qingying."

"Shut up?"

Hearing that Ziheng was about to retreat, Han Zhi suddenly raised her head, frowning in displeasure.

"Although the Palace Master can't trust each other with all his heart, Han Zhi will definitely keep his promise. Since I promised to merge the Qingnvzong into Jiuxiao Palace, I won't go back on my promise, and I won't play any tricks."

From Han Zhi's point of view, Ziheng's words of retreat were obviously refusals, and the other party didn't believe him, so he would use the excuse of retreat and send himself to his subordinates.

Retreating is indeed an excuse for Zi Heng, but it is not aimed at Han Zhi, but for those who are eyeing the Nine Heavens Palace. She is about to travel a long distance, and if she does not appear for a long time, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of those who care about it, which will greatly affect the Nine Heavens Palace. It was unfavorable, so she pretended to retreat, making everyone think that she didn't leave, but just retreated, so as to dispel their thoughts of being unfavorable to Jiuxiao Palace.

"I do have something to do, it's not an excuse to shirk, you don't have to think about it."

Zi Heng walked down the steps and lifted Han Zhi up: "This month, you can do some things that are beneficial to you in the future."

Han Zhi lowered her head and clenched her hands tightly: "I know what to do. The pain that Ji Meier inflicted on me, I will repay her tenfold! If I don't avenge this revenge, I will have no face to see Master."

"You need to pay more attention to the matter of Ji Meier. The hearts of the disciples of the Qingnv Sect must be with you, so that you can successfully inherit the position of suzerain."

Ziheng suddenly remembered that there was someone with experience, and kindly reminded: "Ning Zheng is in this palace, he has experience, maybe you can ask him for advice."

The author has something to say:

Coco... But I'm done writing, I'm exhausted.
