Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 189 The First Weapon Chapter Eighty-Eight
Gongsun Wen's kneeling finally moved King Huai.

Gongsun Wen's cultivation was far higher than that of Hua Chenghui, and he could take the life of King Huai at any time, but he chose to kneel to King Huai.

Xuanren's knees are straight, and few people would kneel easily.

King Huai didn't know much about Gongsun Wen's habits. Seeing that Gongsun Wen was so sincere, he somewhat trusted him.

"Sir, get up quickly!" King Huai stepped forward to help Gongsun Wen, "Mr. is talented, knowledgeable, and cultivated. He is already at the peak of the mortal world. Why do you still value me so much?"

Gongsun Wen knelt down again: "Gongsun Wen has no ambitions. He has studied hard for decades, and this year he is over half a hundred. He is still a junior official of the seventh rank. I am really ashamed of the teachings of the sages!

Husband stood in the world, failed to achieve success, failed to achieve fame, and was humiliated by the young man. When I was in the East Palace, I was ridiculed by the crown prince. In front of the Tianzhang Pavilion, I was ridiculed by Xu Zhiqiong's yellow mouth.

The faint king turned a blind eye to this, and the courtiers were throwing stones at the side. Only His Royal Highness Huai Wang spoke out for me. This encounter is like a jade in a stone. The kindness of knowing you, Wen, how dare you die to repay it! "

King Huai helped Gongsun Wen up again: "With the help of my husband, great things can be accomplished! However, I still have some concerns, and I hope you can give me some guidance."

Huai Wang asked Hua Chenghui to leave, and sincerely discussed countermeasures with Gongsun Wen.

"I just mentioned the three elders of the Canglong Palace. I don't know what good strategy Mister has?"

Gongsun Wendao: "The world has been suffering for a long time, and the three elders are also like this. Your highness should be able to see that the three elders are always alienated from Liang Xianhong, and they protect your highness in everything. They have long intended to let your highness inherit the land."

King Huai sighed: "Although this is the case, if there is a big fight among the masters, I am afraid that the three elders will not sit idly by."

Gongsun Wen nodded: "Your Highness is very worried. If His Highness hesitates again, the three elders will be aware of it in advance and will definitely stop it. At that time, the big thing will be defeated.

If by the time the three elders find out, His Highness has already killed Jun Jun, and then killed the crown prince, who else in the clan can become the great treasure?Even if the three elders are dissatisfied, they can only obey the destiny and protect the country together with His Highness! "

King Huai nodded, but there was a trace of worry: "There are three thousand forbidden troops in the palace, but it is also difficult."

Gongsun Wen said: "I will stop the forbidden army alone!"

"one person?"

"One person is enough!"

Although Confucianism is not good at single kills, it is good at contending with large armies. With a third-rank cultivation base, it is no problem to resist [-] forbidden troops.

"In the imperial palace, there are still a group of eunuchs, who are also difficult to deal with."

"How many soldiers does His Highness have?"

"There are three hundred people on the list, and there are more than two hundred people who are not on the list, but their cultivation is not as good as the eunuchs in the palace, especially the eunuch Chen Shuncai!"

"Chen Shuncai is really difficult to deal with!" Gongsun Wen said after a long thought, "Is there really only one fourth-rank Killer beside His Highness?"

King Huai smiled: "If he is the only one, then I won't let Mr. laugh."

He came to the desk and knocked on the mechanism again. Not long after, ten people came to the study one after another, and these ten people were all wearing masks.

One person stepped forward, holding a long sword, and first clasped fists at Gongsun Wen.

King Huai introduced: "This person has only fought against Mr. Shi, and he has a fourth-rank cultivation of the Dao of Killing."

Another man stepped forward, cupped his fists and saluted.

"This person has the fourth rank of military strategist!"

Another person came forward, a woman, who also clasped fists at Gongsun Wen.

"This person has the fourth-grade cultivation of Suzaku Life Dao."

"Suzaku said!" Gongsun Wen was taken aback, "Is your foot from Suzaku Palace?"

The woman didn't respond, King Huai smiled and said: "The world has been suffering for a long time, and Suzaku cultivators have been despised by the emperor many times. I will tell you the details in the future."

Everyone stepped forward one by one. Among the ten people, there were two fourth-rank killers, one fourth-rank student, one fourth-rank military strategist, three fourth-rank eunuchs, one fifth-rank yin and yang and seventh-rank killer, There are two people left, so it is inconvenient to reveal the door.

In addition to these people, there is also Ye Ansheng, a fourth-rank Mohist, and even the penance workshop behind him, all obeying King Huai's orders.

King Huai's lineup is not weak, Gongsun Wen is quite puzzled: "When the prince was in trouble, why didn't His Highness help?"

King Huai gave a wry smile: "Yu Ming's thoughts are elusive. Before the incident, I didn't know anything about it."

Although he didn't go further, Gongsun Wen could guess Liang Yuming's intentions.

Liang Yuming wanted King Huai to be the Supreme Emperor.

But he himself does not want to be the crown prince.

Liang Yuming wants to achieve everything in one step, he wants to be the emperor.

If the father and son are of one mind, the success or failure of the previous battle is still unknown.

Gongsun Wen clasped his fists and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, with this sharp blade in hand, Chen Shuncai is nothing to be afraid of. Your Highness must be decisive, kill the faint king first, and then kill the crown prince. Cutting grass must be rooted out, and you must not show mercy!"

King Huai nodded frequently.

After everyone left, Gongsun Wen looked worried: "I have one more concern, please Your Majesty make a decision."

Then he changed his tune, proclaimed himself a minister, and called him His Majesty.

"Sir, please speak."

"Your Majesty has a heart-to-heart relationship with you. You should stay with Your Majesty. First, you can prevent the news from leaking. Second, if something happens, you can discuss countermeasures with Your Majesty."

King Huai asked in surprise, "Sir, you don't want to stay?"

Gongsun Wen shook his head and said: "I can't wait to be with Your Majesty day and night, but tomorrow the foolish lord will let me enter the palace to give lectures to the crown prince. If I don't go, I'm afraid the foolish lord will be suspicious. Besides, this is also a good opportunity to inquire about news."

King Huai really didn't want Gongsun Wen to enter the palace, but there was nothing he could do.

Firstly, what Gongsun Wen said was indeed reasonable, if he didn't enter the palace, he would definitely be suspected by Emperor Zhaoxing.

Secondly, even if Gongsun Wen wanted to leave, King Huai couldn't stop him, his cultivation was too high.

In desperation, King Huai smiled and said: "I trust sir, I only hope that sir will go back sooner."

Gongsun Wen clasped his fists and said: "Tomorrow I will enter the palace at noon, if I do not return at midnight, Your Majesty will take precautions in the morning."

King Huai was startled and said, "Sir, it's dangerous to go here?"

Gongsun Wen sighed and said: "That stupid king's thoughts are too unpredictable, if he really finds out, I will fight to the death, even if everything is destroyed, I will take away this slave Chen Shuncai!
If you can kill the prince, it will be even more fortunate. When His Majesty is honored as a great treasure, and the bones of the ministers will be buried in the palace, always by His Majesty's side! "

……

In the middle of the night, Zhong Shen was composing poems in Longtu Pavilion's bedroom, with an eunuch sleeping soundly beside him.

After studying in Longtu Pavilion for many days, Zhong Can made great progress in poetry. He drank some wine at that time, and his poetry flourished. He immediately picked up his pen and prepared to write a five-character quatrain.

The first sentence: The beauty sits in the house!
Repeated from the previous poem.

Change it: the beauty sits in her arms!
Explicit, too explicit, poetry should be more graceful.

Change it again: the beauty sits in the heart!
This sentence is well written, with affection!Artistic conception!
A voice suddenly came from my mind: "How big is the commander's heart? How big is the beauty's fat peach? Can you sit down?"

Zhong Shen was startled, with no expression on his face, and responded in his mind.

"How dare you come here, you thief?"

"Come to help the commander write a poem, the beauty rolls up the bead curtain, what does the commander think?"

"What kind of curtains are you rolling? Vulgar! Vulgar!"

"Is it really vulgar?"

"Poetry depends on artistic conception. You fool know what artistic conception is? Why do you come to me?"

"I have something important to ask, please commander to go to the East Palace."

"I can't go to the East Palace, don't you see someone watching me?"

"I made a puppet, but I can take it for a while, and the commander will go with me, and I will be back before dawn."

"From Tianzhang Pavilion to the East Palace, you have to pass through the entire imperial palace. If you are not careful, you will be discovered!"

"I have a path that no one else will be able to discover. If I can come to the Commander, the Commander will naturally be able to go to the East Palace."

"Get out your puppet!"

"The commander looks back."

When Zhong Can turned around, there was a flesh and blood puppet on the bed.

He stepped forward to take a look, and cursed in his mind: "How does this **** look like me? This **** is uglier than Wu Xu!"

Commander Zhong, do you always think that you are handsome in the contest with Qianhu?

"Let's wait for me to make some adjustments." Zhong Shen stretched out his hand, and took a box with the skill of taking things at will.

The box contained the adze, the axe, the saw, and the paintbrushes.

Zhong Shen doesn't know how to make flesh and blood puppets, but his craftsmanship is exquisite, and the puppet is trimmed with wood, and it is lifelike in an instant!
Before the eunuch woke up, Zhong Shen followed Xu Zhiqiong and quietly left Longtu Pavilion and entered the tunnel.

……

The next day, at night, Xu Zhiqiong was honing his tongue with Lin Qianniang in the back garden of the East Palace.

The so-called training does not refer to physical, but spiritual.

Xu Zhiqiong had to learn to create mental coercion through language.

Qianniang explained two key points:
One is faith. When using skills, you must believe in what you say, no matter how absurd the words are.

The second is to be rational. When using skills, one must derive unreasonable inferences through reasonable conclusions, and the derivation process should still be as reasonable as possible.

The cultivation process of famous masters is very abstract, Xu Zhiqiong put a lot of thought into it, as an incentive, as long as Xu Zhiqiong makes a little progress, Qianniang has to give him a dimple kiss.

After practicing around Haishi, Qianniang covered her face and said, "Xu Lang, can you switch to the other side?"

"There are no dimples over there!"

"For you to be so close, the dimples here are almost gone."

"Then switch sides and see if I can get a dimple from my kiss!"

While laughing, Xu Zhiqiong suddenly frowned, and told Qianniang to stay in the room and not move.

The assassin came, with the same murderous intent as before.

Xu Zhiqiong shook the silver bell to report to the prince.

The prince dressed neatly, walked out of the palace, and came to the back garden, ready to face the battle.

The servants lined up on both sides, all far away from the prince, Xu Zhiqiong was also far away, it seemed that the prince's position was very prominent.

In the front garden, Lantern Lantern and the guards tried to resist for a while, and within a short while, retreated to the back garden without any suspense.

When the ranks are equal, Confucian cultivators move slowly and have poor precision, making it difficult to take advantage of battles.

But if there is an advantage in rank, Confucian practitioners can crush a large number of enemies, which is also the most terrifying thing about Confucianism.

When they arrived in the back garden, the moment they saw the prince, the assassin's strategy changed.

In the past, he would choose to bring down all those who blocked him, and then deal with the prince.

This time, he rushed directly to the prince.

The prince yelled and jumped up and down, as if in a panic.

When the assassin was less than fifty feet away from the prince, the prince thought of running away.

A distance of fifty feet is just right for a Confucian cultivator, and the assassin used a fifth-grade skill on the prince—right body.

The characteristic of body-righteous technique is to correct the other party's thinking, raise the other party's moral standards, let the other party get rid of all evil thoughts, and restrain oneself with the most upright ideas.

For example, the prince is obviously not the assassin's opponent, so he should choose to run away at this time.

But he won't be able to escape if he has won the Confucian fifth grade skill!
Running away from this kind of thing is immoral.

How can you escape when the enemy is coming!
Facing the enemy, you should hold your chest up and have a bloody battle with him!
Even if you die, you have to die heroically!

Driven by skills, the prince refused to escape, and wanted to fight hard with the assassin.

Standing aside, Xu Zhiqiong deeply felt the difference in momentum. Today's assassin is more like an assassin. He is here to take the life of the crown prince, not to pretend to be in the East Palace!
Lu Yunxi was injured, Chen Shuncai did not come, the prince himself wanted to fight to the death, it seemed that no one could stop the prince from sending him to death.

The assassin walked a few more steps, and was less than thirty feet away from the prince. The assassin concentrated his aura of righteousness in his palm, ready to slap the prince to death.

Unexpectedly, his feet suddenly softened, and the assassin fell into the pit.

The prince's face was pale, and he gasped again and again: "Almost, almost couldn't hold on anymore. If I hadn't had the guts, I would have been scared away by this guy long ago!"

This pit was dug by Zhong Shen, and the prince's purpose was to lead the assassin into the pit.

The trap is very delicately designed and can automatically track the enemy, but it is only effective for enemies within a thirty-foot range.

The prince had to stand still, because there was a mechanism under his feet, and this mechanism was the key to triggering the trap.

If someone is less than thirty feet away from the prince, the prince only needs to chop his foot and step on the mechanism, and a trap will appear under the opponent's feet.

Even if the opponent is flying over, a rope will emerge from the trap and pull the opponent into it.

That's why everyone is far away from the prince.

But the prince couldn't hold on just now, the assassin's aura was too fierce, the prince almost escaped.

If he escapes, the well-laid trap will be for naught!

Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, with the help of the assassin's fifth-grade skill, the prince stood still and stepped on the mechanism!
The prince admired his courage very much: "Zhiqiong, I'm not bragging, I wasn't afraid of him at all just now!"

While speaking, he suddenly saw the assassin covered in blood, jumped out of the trap, and rushed towards the prince again.

The prince exclaimed: "It's just talking, don't take it seriously..."

Before the words fell, the assassin was dragged into the trap again by a rope.

This is Commander Zhong's trap, this is the masterpiece of the third-rank Mohists, it has already entered, and it is so easy to get out?

Xu Zhiqiong didn't know what was in the trap, he only saw iron balls and blades falling in midair.

The trap shook violently, and from time to time, iron filings surged outwards. The iron balls and blades that fell into the trap were all ground to fine powder, but what would the assassin look like after being ground?
The defensive power of Confucianism ranks high among all Taoist sects, but this is in the case of fighting humans. Confucianism is good at fighting humans, but not good at fighting machines. Facing Zhong Shen's mechanism, this assassin can only Using awe-inspiring righteousness to forcibly defend, it seems that you will not be able to hold on.

The prince asked Xu Zhiqiong: "Aren't we going to catch people alive?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "Your Highness, you are a courageous person. You are not afraid of him at all. Go down and rescue him."
