Chapter 374

Name:The Path Toward Heaven Author:Mao Ni
It is common to assassinate the king. It is not uncommon for subordinates to kill the king and then set up their master's house to ascend the throne.

Many of the yellow robes are memorial archways, and some are really forced and helpless.

Bachelor Zhang did not know about the assassination, nor did the emperor, but many people knew it in advance.

The bodyguards in the imperial palace were all senior scholars. Although they did not receive direct instructions, they naturally kept silent when they knew where the assassin hidden in the water delivery truck came from. Those eunuchs who heard the wind faintly hid in the quilt and trembled. They didn't dare to look out of the window. The whole palace was strangely quiet.

Bachelor Zhang got up to wash. With the help of his old wife, he put on his official clothes and prepared to attend the court meeting. However, he found that one of his sons was missing from the house.

"Where's your big brother?" He asked with a slight frown.

Several young masters of Zhang looked at each other and said nervously, "elder brother met friends last night. It seems that he drank too much and rested outside. He hasn't come back yet."

Bachelor Zhang was a little angry, but he didn't think too much. He didn't feel that the atmosphere in the house today was strange until he walked into the sedan chair.

……

……

Mr. Zhang didn't drink or go whoring, but sat in a house deep in a big house in the capital.

The morning light was dim, and then separated by the paper window. The room was very dark. I couldn't see my face clearly. I could only hear more than ten breathing sounds.

All the people in this room are young and strong officials who are the only great scholar in the imperial court.

Whether in terms of seniority or official position, childe Zhang is not qualified to sit in the first place, but the people in the room have no opinion and behave more respectfully than usual.

After today's success, the eldest childe will be the prince.

The throne can sit, not to mention the first place?

There was no news for a long time. The atmosphere in the room became more depressed and everyone was on pins and needles.

Finally someone couldn't sit still. He got up and went to the window. His voice was a little urgent and said, "even if the assassin lost his hand, what about the bodyguards?"

In many residences in the capital of the state of Chu, those officials who received the news were in a tense mood. Some officials directly said they were ill and did not attend the court meeting. Some officials, such as the Minister of rites, rushed to the palace with a red face and waited.

……

……

The morning light moved from the ground of the palace to the window, penetrated and illuminated the scratched floor in the palace, reflecting water like light patterns.

The sun has risen.

Well nine opened his eyes and had the same question as many officials: why haven't they come yet?

The palace is a good place for him to practice. It is no different from the Castle Peak. He doesn't want to leave, but now it seems that with his age, there will only be more and more troubles, and he is ready to leave.

He had confirmed the location of the mountain and was ready to pretend to be dead. After that, he went to the mountain as a savage anonymously. Who knew that the assassin never appeared.

A few muffled sounds suddenly came from a distance outside the hall, followed by footsteps, shouts, and the friction of weapons, which were getting closer and closer.

Why did a secret assassination become such a fierce battle? Jing Jiu got up and walked outside the hall.

When he opened the door, the sun was shining, and he narrowed his eyes.

The Palace door was half closed, and the bodies of several assassins were piled there.

There were more corpses in the palace walls. In addition to the assassins in cloth clothes, there were more than a dozen bodyguards. Blood flowed across the palace walls, emitting a faint fishy smell.

Between the corpses and blood on the ground, stood a black and thin boy.

The boy suffered many injuries, covered with blood, and the white bones of the wounds on his arms loomed, but his hands holding the hilt of the sword were still so stable.

The palace gate was finally forced open by the bodyguard outside, and the bodies of the assassins were shaken away.

Dozens of bodyguards shouted for escort, swarmed in and surrounded the black and thin boy in the middle.

Some bodyguards wanted to come to Jing Jiu, but they were stopped by a sword light.

The sword light came from the black and thin boy's hand.

It was a bloody battle. No matter how fierce the black and thin boy could fight, the final outcome could only be death or capture.

"This is not what you should do."

The voice of Jing Jiu echoed outside the hall, passing through the bodies of assassins and bodyguards, with a bloody smell.

He went down the stone steps, came to the black and thin boy, looked at the guards and said, "he is my personal guard. Do you want to kill him?"

Hearing this, the bodyguards were surprised. Several bodyguards looked at each other secretly, but they didn't dare to do anything in the end.

At this time, the forbidden army finally arrived outside the hall, surrounded by an endless crowd. The commander of the forbidden army was the most trusted General of bachelor Zhang. At this time, his face was ugly like his mother who had just died. He tied all the bodyguards directly, and then fell on his knees in front of Jing Jiu.

Jingjiu ignored him and returned to the temple with the black and thin boy.

The commander of the forbidden army looked pale and ordered his subordinates to carry out the body, wash the ground with clean water, and then slowly closed the Palace door.

In the early morning, Jing Jiu drove out all the eunuchs and maids. The hall was empty and deserted.

Jing Jiu found some wound medicine in the residence of the women in the back of the temple, handed it to the black and thin boy and motioned him to sit down at will.

The black and thin boy should be that ungrateful disciple, but he changed his face and became a little different when he entered the dreamland.

Well nine is more familiar with this face, especially the simple, straight and persistent strength between the eyebrows and eyes, which is hard to forget.

The black and thin boy took off his coat that had been cut into silk strips by the sword and began to bandage his wound. He didn't speak in the whole process.

Well nine looked out of the window and looked at the green bird on the branch.

The green bird flies away quietly. It may be to the palace of Zhao state or to the imperial palace of Beihai. No matter how far away the ends of the earth are, it only needs a moment.

Well nine asked, "how did you go to Wanshou mountain from Guocheng temple? Even if you leave, shouldn't you go to yimaozhai? Hasn't Zen Zi already written a letter? "

It is rare for him to ask three questions in a row.

These three questions also revealed another surprising fact. It turned out that the black and thin boy was Liu ten years old.

Why did Liu attend the meeting as an ungrateful disciple when he was ten years old and practising Buddhism in Guocheng temple?

"The headmaster immortal guessed that you would come to the meeting, so he asked me to come in as an ungrateful disciple to help you."

When it comes to yimaozhai, Liu shisui hesitated and didn't explain. He only said the reason why he appeared here.

This is really a rare thing for him who sees well nine as a teacher and a father.

Well nine understand Liu Ci's idea.

As the leader of Castle Peak, Liu CI naturally knows that Liu shisui has already left the sword prison of Shangde peak, and even knows that Liu shisui is in Guocheng temple.

Jing Jiu never wanted to hide Liu CI. It's hard to hide it from his current state.

Liu CI wants to help Jing Jiu get immortal records from Zhongzhou sect, so he has to prepare help for him.

Zhuo rusui was so eye-catching that he thought of Liu shisui, who was far away in Guocheng temple.

If the green bird were still on the branches outside the window and spread Liu's ten-year-old words to the outside world, it would inevitably lead to an uproar and vibration.

Everyone thought that Zhongzhou sect had an absolute advantage in this conference, because four of their disciples entered the dreamland.

Who could have thought that qingshanzong quietly sent three disciples in to represent Jingjiu who fought in Shuiyue nunnery? Who could have thought that Liu was ten years old?

In this way, immortal Liu's personal visit to Yunmeng Mountain is not as simple as releasing goodwill, but more like taking the seat in person for the subsequent victory!

……

……

Well nine asked, "how is the true Qi in your body now?"

Liu shisui said, "there were some repetitions a few years ago, but the real leader passed me a skill, which was temporarily suppressed."

Well nine said: "after going out, I still have to go to Maozhai. The suppression is not long. I still have to find a way to solve it."

Liu was ten years old and didn't want to go to yimaozhai, but since it was the childe who spoke, he had no choice but to respond.

Jing Jiu was still worried that he lied in order to stay in the dreamland and protect himself. He stretched out a finger and pointed to the center of his eyebrows.

Liu was ten years old and didn't dare to dodge. He sat up straight and stopped bandaging his wound.

There was a clear bell in the distant void. Only Jing Jiu could hear it. It didn't take long. He took back his fingers and frowned slightly.

When Liu was ten years old, he knew that the childe had an expression, which meant a big deal. He couldn't help getting nervous and said, "what's the matter?"

"Nothing."

Well nine sensed a sign deep in Liu's ten-year-old body.

Now it is in the dreamland, and everyone's bodies are gods and spirits. Who can brand a mark on the ten-year-old gods and spirits without being discovered by him?

Liu is ten years old. Now the level of blood devil skill is very high, which can't be done by ordinary strong practitioners.

Soon he thought that this should be the means of Qingtian Jianling. He waved and erased the mark without saying anything to Liu shisui. After the death of Emperor Ming, no matter in heaven, earth or in the real world, he is the one who has the strongest understanding and mastery of the divine soul. Even his senior brother is not as good as him, let alone a spirit.

Just then, the green bird flew back to the palace of the state of Chu and landed on a branch.

Well nine didn't speak any more, and Liu was silent at the age of ten. He continued to lower his head and bandage his wound.

The green bird looked at the black and thin boy who was hurt all over. His eyes were a little confused. He thought that he had no sign left on the remaining evil of the blood demon sect?

The news of the assassination of the emperor will spread very quickly no matter how it is covered up.

The atmosphere at the meeting became very tense and depressed. Bachelor Zhang's face was gloomy. His eyes swept over those subordinates who followed him. There seemed to be hidden thunder in his eyes, which was about to break out. In the end, he didn't say anything. He entered the palace as quickly as possible, came to the front of the palace, and earnestly begged to see his majesty.

The Palace door opened slowly. Bachelor Zhang looked at the black and thin young man and thought about what the commander of the forbidden army said. He wondered when his majesty had contact with the strong practitioners outside the palace? The bodies of those assassins and bodyguards have been removed, and the ground has been washed with water several times, but there is still a faint smell of blood. The black flies that flew from nowhere cheered and hummed. Smelling the faint smell of blood and thinking of the danger here before, the bachelor's face was even more ugly. When he came to the hall, he looked at the young emperor reclining on his couch. The bachelor walked forward slowly, raised his front, and knelt down solemnly( My WeChat official account maoni1118 will give you the trailer to celebrate the rest of the year, and it is just a few days ago that the plot is a little bit special, especially the old eunuch lying on the chair.
