Chapter 167: Lu Yue seeks revenge
Upon reaching the safety of the town, the Messenger of Joy summoned another companion with the secret method of the door. This fellow disciple is another of the five great kings: King Vajrayogya. Compared to King Juntarya's outer thickness and inner thinness, King Vajrayogini is impatient and irritable, which is why he was not involved in the Treasure Hunt. When he heard that King Juntari Ming had been killed, King Yaksha Ming was shocked and angry, and he was about to rush to the Yuanjue Cave of Vulture Mountain to confront the burning lamp, but was persuaded by the messenger of joy.
The envoy of joy secretly calculated: in that case, he "rejoiced" Wu Ping, who explained the teaching, was considered a loss, but he was also cut off his hands and feet, and almost lost his surname; and the death of King Jun Tuli Ming was only afraid that it had something to do with the teaching, if he could increase the dissatisfaction of the sect leader with the teaching, then his own fault could also become lighter, and it seemed that it was necessary to use some lip service to go back.
If Zhang Zixing knew the idea of the Joy Messenger, he was afraid that he would risk the danger of "Brokeback Mountain" and kiss him in public.
For Zhang Zixing, the "benefactor" of the righteous Bo Yuntian, the envoy of joy is naturally grateful, although from Qin Wan's mouth, he heard that Han Zhixian is not the official Taoist companion of Xiaoyaozi, but judging from the performance and attitude of both parties, it is clearly a little meaningful, and they must have admired each other for a long time, but they have not yet expressed it. Strictly speaking, it wasn't a lie on Jinao Island at the beginning. Besides, compared with Xiaoyaozi's life-saving grace, this little thing can't be taken into account at all, if he can come to Middle-earth again in the future, he will repay him as a good life.
The messenger of joy sincerely expressed his gratitude to Zhang Zixing, and made an appointment to meet again, before he and King Vajra Yaksha went away.
Now that the treasure hunt was over, Zhang Zixing was worried that something was wrong with Chaoge, so he hurriedly rushed back with Yuan Hong as quickly as possible.
Basically, the situation of Chaoge is still stable, Bing Xue only occasionally goes to the court, according to the program perfunctory a few words, occasionally some important government affairs, but also by Shang Qingjun and Fang Wei made a decision in secret, Kong Xuan is still in retreat, did not come out, in addition to controlling the phantom water beads, the female Lu is also practicing the double cultivation technique taught by the Yellow Emperor with Ying Long.
However, there was one news that made Zhang Zixing secretly surprised: Bo Yi Kao died!
Bo Yi Kaumun's injustice, knowing the plan, has been in prison many times to seek death, because of the extremely strict guards and unsuccessful, after suffering from the palace punishment, even more heartbroken, was driven out of the song. Maybe it's because of which period of peace of mind, on the way, Bo Yi Kao figured out a lot of things, including his own injustice this time, as soon as this question was figured out, there was a general explanation for the original more questions, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt frightened, and he didn't even dare to think about it anymore. At this time, he must rush back to Xiqi as soon as possible and report some things to his mother, Taiji.
At this time, the convoy was suddenly attacked by unknown people, these people shot viciously, leaving no room alive, although Xiqi's guards tried their best, they could not resist, and in the end, including Bo Yi Kao, the group was all killed.
The place where the assassination took place was on the road not far from the Jiepai Pass. It has not yet come out of the territory directly under the jurisdiction of the big business. At the time of Bo Yikao's murder, Zhang Zixing was in the South China Sea to seize treasures. Huang Roll, the general soldier of Jiepai Pass, was the father of Huang Feihu, and he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, so he immediately pleaded to Chaoge, and at the same time searched for the assassin everywhere, but according to the situation at the scene, after the assassin succeeded, he seemed to evacuate quickly and fled to the mountains, leaving no trace, and it seemed that he was a killer who was good at this way.
Some say that it is that Eshun, the son of the rebel minister Nan Bohou, deliberately sent someone to kill Bo Yi Kao in order to provoke the contradiction between Chao Ge and Xiqi, and some said that it was the woman's unjust soul to take revenge on Bo Yi Kao, and some even said that the Son of Heaven suddenly felt that Bo Yi Kao's crime was unforgivable, and it was not good to take back his order, so he sent someone to kill Bo Yi Kao, and there were different opinions for a while, of course, the last statement was the least vocal, Bo Yi Kao was guilty of a serious crime, even if the Son of Heaven was justified, he didn't use any consideration or hesitation at all, let alone secretly send people, but the first statement may have the largest surname, this come, Xiqi's rumors have become smaller.
Although Zhang Zixing was surprised by Bo Yikao's death, he didn't take it seriously, and just ordered Tianying to investigate secretly. He was most worried about Daji, who was currently fascinated by the mana of the Phantom Water Bead, but she had a connection with the saint after all. In case Daji is in the formation and is summoned or contacted by Nuwa, with Nuwa's mana, even if she is outside of thirty-three days, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not detect the abnormality.
Fortunately, according to his observation and monitoring in recent years, if there is nothing important, Daji will not contact Nuwa, and Nuwa herself will never take the initiative to summon Daji. But with the need for the further emergence of that Xiaoyaozi's identity, in the future, his absence from the palace will be more frequent, and the time will not be fixed, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, if it is at this time, what if there is contact between the two sides? He didn't think of any good way for a while, could it be that he let Daji also become his internal response? This is too unrealistic...... At present, it is still virtual and real, and it is better to match the appearance of the real body with the effect of the phantom water beads.
Yuan Hong's harvest in the South China Sea is very rich, just the magic treasure bag got ten, there are also a lot of magic weapons and pills in it, Zhang Zixing called Ying Long and Fang Wei together, came to a spoils sharing conference, he himself chose a defensive magic weapon, and picked a few at random, and everyone was happy at the moment.
After the end of the "distribution of spoils", everyone dispersed, Zhang Zixing just wanted to go to the harem, and suddenly an attendant came to report: "There is a person Shen Gongbao who asks to see him outside the imperial city." ”
Zhang Zixing hurriedly announced his entry into the hall, and he greeted him at the same time. I saw that Shen Gongbao was still dressed in bast shoes, holding the dust in his hand, dressed as a master of the world, and when he saw the Son of Heaven personally greeting him, he immediately bowed his head: "See Your Majesty for the poor road." ”
Zhang Zixing showed a surprised expression: "The national teacher is finally here!
Shen Gongbao didn't expect the Son of Heaven to directly call himself a national teacher, and hurriedly said: "How can you be called like this if you are poor and talented?
Zhang Zixing shook his head and said: "The Taoist chief should not shirk again! I had an appointment with the Taoist four years ago, and the last time the song was rampant, from the hundreds of officials to the people, all of them were in danger of their lives. ”
Shen Gongbao said modestly: "I didn't make any effort in this matter, I just pointed the way, and it was all the credit of that national teacher." ”
Zhang Zixing said with a smile: "Why should the Taoist be modest, the national teacher Xiaoyaozi came back to sing and tell the matter, and he admired the Taoist Gaoyi very much, saying that this matter is the work of the Taoist." Isn't the Taoist chief a strange widow who has established a national teacher? I am a great merchant and civil official, and I respect the left, although Xiaoyaozi gets along with the widow and has made great contributions, but he can only be the right national teacher, and the Taoist chief knows why?"
When Shen Gongbao heard that Xiaoyaozi really came back and said a lot of good things about him, he was secretly happy at the moment, and asked pretending not to know: "The poor way is dull and does not understand the holy will. ”
Zhang Zixing said solemnly: "When the widow canonized Xiaoyaozi as the right national teacher, he once said that the position of the left national teacher will always be only for one person! That person is Shen Daochang! The national teacher, the teacher of the great merchant world, and the arm of the widow! Now although the right arm is complete, the left arm is missing, could it be that the Taoist chief can't bear to let the widow have incomplete limbs in this life?"
Shen Gongbao heard the metaphor of his arm, and couldn't help but be shocked, seeing that the Son of Heaven was so sincere, his heart was moved, and he immediately bowed down: "Poor and talented, thanks to Your Majesty's courtesy, you should be smeared for Your Majesty's liver and brain, and you will not hesitate!"
Zhang Zixing was happy, helped Shen Gongbao up, and said happily: "The national teacher is above the prime minister, and he is the teacher of a country, so there is no need for such etiquette! ”
Shen Gongbao is a small character who is discriminated against in teaching, and when he heard that the son gave him this kind of high-level treatment today, his heart was moved and excited, Zhang Zixing knew that Shen Gongbao's diplomatic ability was extremely strong, and now he finally succeeded in tying him to the chariot of the big businessman, and he was also very happy, and now he took Shen Gongbao's hand and walked into the main hall together, and ordered someone to give him a seat.
"Now that the left and right national teachers of the big business have returned to their positions, the widow can sit back and relax!"
Shen Gongbao had a good impression of the right national teacher Xiaoyaozi, and asked the Son of Heaven for some relevant news, Zhang Zixing told him that the right national teacher had recently gone to the South China Sea and had not returned.
Zhang Zixing asked: "I don't know if the national teacher is coming to the court today, what do you think?"
"There is indeed an important thing to come here. Shen Gongbao Zhengse said: "Back then, Chaoge was hit by poison, may I ask Your Majesty, what kind of poison is it?"
Zhang Zixing saw that Shen Gongbao was so solemn, thought about it, and said that when Yue Wang Qi rebelled, and emphasized that there were two men and a woman, who were cultivators, but they colluded with Yue Wang Qi to rebel, and almost made himself the son of heaven highly poisonous.
After Shen Gongbao asked about the appearance of the red-robed Taoist, he showed surprise: "Sure enough, it turns out that what Chaoge suffered was the plague! This Taoist's name is Zhu Tianlin, and he is a disciple of Lu Yue, a famous mountain qi refiner on Kowloon Island. Lu Yue's Taoism is strong, a hundred times better than me, and he is ruthless, he is deeply versed in the art of plague and poison, and there are four disciples Zhou Xin, Li Qi, Zhu Tianlin, and Yang Wenhui, who practice with him, but because Zhu Tianlin has not returned after going out, he has doubts in his heart. Now that his disciple has died in the song, Lu Yue wants to seek revenge......"
Zhang Zixing was shocked, what Shen Gongbao brought was indeed a very important piece of information. At the beginning, Zhu Tianlin alone had already caused Chaoge to suffer a deep plague, if Lu Yue personally went out, it would definitely be more difficult to deal with, although Shennong gave the pill at the beginning, but after all, there were only a few, and it could not cope with many disasters. Besides, the pill is dead, and the person is alive, in case Lu Yue develops the plague that Shennong's pill cannot control, and the Huoyun Cave has been closed, there is really no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth.
Zhang Zixing hurriedly said: "At this time, it is about the life of my great businessman Li Min, please help me relieve this misfortune!"
Shen Gongbao said: "Your Majesty, can you recall that Xiaoyaozi Daoist, I am afraid that this matter will only end if he meets Lu Yue, or has a fight with Lu Yue, so that Lu Yue can dissipate his anger." ”
Zhang Zixing didn't want to take this risk, Lu Yue's Taoism was profound, he had three heads and six arms thaumaturgy, many magic weapons on his body, and biological and chemical weapons. Zhang Zixing didn't want to face such an enemy, even if Kong Xuan taught Lu Yue a lesson, it would only aggravate the resentment.
Zhang Zixing looked at the glittering light in Shen Gongbao's eyes, his heart moved, and he shook his head and said: "Don't say that the national teacher is not here, if he is in Chaoge, the widow will not allow the national teacher to take this risk." The national teacher exterminated Zhu Tianlin for the safety of the widow and for the sake of the country. And Lu Yue's revenge is a personal grudge, how can a widow let the national teacher go to a dangerous fight? If there is a mistake, the widow should be at peace for life! If you change to Shen Guoshi, the widow will be the same! The widow is willing to go to see Lu Yue in person and reason with him. ”
Shen Gongbao originally also wanted to try, but when he heard the sentence, "If you change to Shen Guoshi, so will the widow be the same", he couldn't help but be moved, such an emperor is really worth following people! This time, the poor road came, specially invited that Lu Yue Taoist friend, also outside the imperial city to wait for the order, this person acted ruthlessly, arrogant, but also righteous people, His Majesty only has to treat each other politely, explain the reason, will be able to resolve this grievance. ”
Zhang Zixing was shocked when he heard that Lu Yue himself had come, and immediately listened to Shen Gongbao's words and announced Lu Yue's entry into the palace.
Lu Yue should enter the palace, Zhang Zixing secretly looked at his appearance, this person was wearing a big red robe, with a fierce face, and a third eye on his forehead, which looked extremely hideous.
Lu Yue said, "Jiulong Island Qi Refiner Lu Yue, I have seen Your Majesty. ”
Zhang Zixing said politely: "The Taoist appearance is strange, the Taoist skills are outstanding, and the widow has also admired the name for a long time. ”
Lu Yue was not polite, thanked the Son of Heaven, and sat down.
Zhang Zixing exchanged a few words, and suddenly said amazingly: "The Taoist chief came to sing today, isn't it to take the widow's surname?"
