Judge of the Lamp

In the middle of the night, in a courtyard in the southwest of Shenlin City, Xu Zhiqiong lit up the magic eye on the candlestick in a secret room.

He injected the power of imagery into the stone eye, outlined Gongsun Wen's appearance in his mind, and repeated Gongsun Wen's name.

As expected, a light spot appeared in the divine machine eye.

Gongsun Wen is from Qiancheng, and has the blood of Qiancheng. As long as he appears on the territory of Qiancheng Kingdom, he will be within the sight of Shenjiyan.

After wandering in the city of Shenlin for more than an hour, Gongsun Wen came to the Shenjun Hall quietly at the time of Zi, passed through several palaces one after another, avoided all the outposts and institutions, and walked from a road without internal servants, imperial troops and guards. Xiaolu, the guard, sneaked into Shensi Pavilion.

Xu Zhiqiong's cheeks trembled. There was such a defensive blind spot in the Qiancheng Palace.

Shensi Pavilion is the largest book pavilion in Qiancheng Palace.

The scale of Shensi Pavilion is not comparable to that of Daxuan Longtu Pavilion, Baowen Pavilion, and Tianzhang Pavilion.

Even if all the Royal Book Pavilions, large and small, are added up, the scale cannot keep up with half of the Shensi Pavilion.

There are eight front pavilions in the Shensi Pavilion, all of which are the classics written by the gods of the past dynasties, including the poems, songs and Fu left by them and some miscellaneous notes.

These books are the classic textbooks of Qiancheng Kingdom, and also the main basis for scientific examination questions. The original text, annotations, gist, gist and extension of the classics all have fixed content.

Gongsun Wen was born as a scholar, so he is very familiar with the classics of the Eight Great Book Pavilions. Back then, his teacher Kai Meng once taught him that as long as he can memorize the classics of the past dynasties, it is not a problem to pass the exam.

But after juren, I will talk about it again. With Gongsun Wen's background at the time, the chance of being a Jinshi is very small. He failed three times in Chunwei, so Gongsun Wen went to the Shenji Division to find another way out.

After passing the eight front pavilions, you come to the sixteen middle pavilions. In these sixteen book pavilions, various books from different periods and regions are collected.

These books are collected in various book pavilions according to different categories, among which etiquette and law are the most, occupying a full three book pavilions.

In addition to the etiquette and law, there is the law, which is also numerous, occupying two book pavilions.

Then there are engineering methods, music methods, farming methods, witchcraft, medical skills, math skills, chess skills, painting skills... there are all kinds of books.

These books can also be seen in the Qiancheng Market, but there are not many of them. Except for the laws of etiquette and the law of the law, all other kinds of books are regarded as low-level studies and despised by gentlemen.

After the Zhong Pavilion, there is the Secret Pavilion. The books here cannot be found in the market.

There are also sixteen secret pavilions, eight of which record various secrets of Qiancheng Kingdom, and the other eight record various secrets of evil sects and heretics.

To put it bluntly, there are eight bookstores that record the practice methods of various Taoist sects. Practice is a crime in Qiancheng Kingdom, and such books are naturally not legal.

The secrets of Qiancheng Kingdom cannot be passed on to the outside world, and no one is qualified to consult them except the gods, so the security of the Secret Pavilion is very strict.

After the secret pavilion, there are eight tail pavilions, in which there are some idle books, including famous works and paintings of literati in the past dynasties.

Gongsun Wen sneaked into the secret pavilion and quietly hid in No. 13 secret pavilion - Youxian Pavilion.

The Youxian Pavilion mainly houses the classics of Xuanwu Mingdao. Naturally, Gongsun Wen didn’t come here to read books. He hid on the third floor of the book pavilion, and quietly observed the tenth secret pavilion—Xuanwu through a small window. The movement of Huage.

Xu Zhiqiong, who had been looking at the magical eyes, couldn't help being stunned.

Xu Zhiqiong just received the news from Li Quangen that Hong Juncheng lived in Xuanhua Pavilion an hour ago.

How did Gongsun Wen know where Hong Juncheng was?
He must have internal support in the palace, presumably he also received the news and found Xuanhua Pavilion!
Not only the location is accurate, but the route is also very accurate.

Confucian cultivators are not good at sneaking in and assassinating, but along the way, Gongsun Wen accurately avoided the outposts of the imperial army, the patrolling guards, and all the servants and palace people.

Someone had provided Gongsun Wen with a map of the palace in advance.

But relying on the map alone is useless, Li Quangen also drew a map for Xu Zhiqiong, the Qiancheng Imperial Palace is too vast, and with this map alone, it is absolutely impossible for Xu Zhiqiong to sneak into the secret pavilion so smoothly.

Gongsun Wen walked in Qiancheng Palace, just like walking in his own home, he is really familiar with the palace!

It can be seen from this that Gongsun Wen's previous preparations were no less than Yuan Chengfeng's, and his desire for the throne was no less than Yuan Chengfeng's.

Youxian Pavilion is not too close to Xuanhua Pavilion, but the view is very good. If Xu Zhiqiong went to Xuanhua Pavilion to assassinate Hong Juncheng tonight, he would definitely not be able to escape Gongsun Wen's eyes.

Next, what Gongsun Wen had to do was to wait for Xu Zhiqiong to make a move, and wait until Xu Zhiqiong and Hong Juncheng fought until both sides were hurt. Gongsun Wen happened to show up, and first removed Xu Zhiqiong's stumbling block, and then killed Hong Juncheng to ascend to the throne.

What a perfect idea.

The only question is, will Xu Zhiqiong assassinate Hong Juncheng tonight?

Gongsun Wen thought that Xu Zhiqiong would definitely come!
Xu Zhiqiong will indeed come, but the exact time may be different from what Gongsun Wen thought.

Gongsun Wendu has arrived at Hong Juncheng's side, so the important task of assassination will naturally be entrusted to him.

Xu Zhiqiong put a letter into the magic circle, and Chang De, who was hiding in the palace, received the letter.

On the letter is a map, the map Li Quangen drew for Xu Zhiqiong, and there are marks left by Xu Zhiqiong on the map.

Chang Decai handed the letter to Li Quangen, and Li Quangen knew the location of Gongsun Wen.

Gongsun Wen, who was hiding on the third floor of Youxian Pavilion, watched Xuanhua Pavilion quietly, and suddenly heard the door of Book Pavilion was opened.

Gongsun Wen was startled, but he didn't panic. His first reaction was not that his whereabouts were exposed, but that a servant came in to clean up.

He knows the rules of the palace.

The old and spicy Gongsun Wen was still hiding in the corner of the third floor of the bookstore, and soon heard the sound of the servant wiping dust and sweeping the floor.

This should be a routine cleaning, and the servants will not clean it too carefully, and they will not even go up to the third floor.

Teng Teng, Teng Teng!
Footsteps came, and the servant came up!
And there's more than one!
Hu Qiuman, the head eunuch of the Zhidian Supervisor, shouted: "Clean it up, the god will come later, if you see any floating dust, you will have your heads chopped off and hung on the broom as a bell!"

A dozen servants were sweeping the second floor, and now Gongsun Wen was not calm.

This is not a routine sweeping every day, but Hong Juncheng is coming to Youxian Pavilion, so the servants should make preparations in advance!
Isn't he going to sleep in Xuanhua Pavilion?

Why did you come to Youxian Pavilion in the middle of the night?
Gongsun Wen quickly speculated:
Hong Juncheng knew that Xu Zhiqiong was coming to assassinate him, so he purposely moved to another place to live!
Youxian Pavilion is very suitable for launching an ambush against Xuanhua Pavilion. Hong Juncheng is planning to capture Xu Zhiqiong instead.

This is bad!
Gongsun Wen knew that he couldn't hide anymore, so he came to the window cautiously, and was about to jump out of the window to escape.

The servants who came to clean the house were all sent by Li Quangen, and they all had cultivation bases.

Although Gongsun Wen's cultivation level is high, he is still a Confucianist. No matter the sound of climbing or footsteps, he cannot avoid the ears of the servant.

Hu Qiuman heard Gongsun Wen's direction, and shouted deliberately: "This window is full of dust, see how you cleaned it up!"

While talking, Hu Qiuman pushed open the window and saw Gongsun Wen hanging in the air.

"There's an assassin!" Hu Qiuman shouted in a sharp voice, backing away quickly while shouting.

Gongsun Wen wanted to kill Hu Qiuman, but Hu Qiuman retreated too quickly, and Gongsun Wen had no chance to make a move.

Besides, killing Hu Qiuman is useless, the most urgent thing is to escape quickly.

Gongsun Wen quickly landed, and the servants guarding outside Youxian Pavilion shouted together: "There are assassins!"

Why are there so many servants?
They seem to know in advance that there are assassins coming, and they seem to have been waiting here!
Gongsun Wen was a little flustered, and there were shouts from servants everywhere.

These servants neither intercept nor chase, they just do two things, one is to shout, and the other is to light the lamp.

Not long after, the entire Shensi Pavilion was brightly lit, and the forbidden army and guards chased and intercepted it. It seemed that Gongsun Wen had nowhere to escape!

Xu Zhiqiong saw Gongsun Wen kill dozens of guards one after another through his magical eyes, and brought down a group of imperial guards with awe-inspiring righteousness, before fleeing into the garden next to the secret pavilion.

Hong Juncheng, can you bear this?

Gongsun Wen broke into your palace and killed your people. He came and left whenever he wanted, so why don't you come out and take a look?
Hong Juncheng really didn't come out.

He really could bear it.

But it was not so easy for Gongsun Wen to leave. He had prepared in advance and had a route to escape, but suddenly the situation was disrupted and he was trapped in the garden.

Xu Zhiqiong adjusted the perspective of the divine machine eye, and saw the overall layout of the garden.

This garden is not too big, and Gongsun Wen hides in a cluster of flowers.

The garden has been heavily surrounded by the forbidden army, as long as the encirclement is closed, Gongsun Wen will definitely be caught.

Of course, these forbidden soldiers and guards were not Gongsun Wen's opponents. The reason why Gongsun Wen didn't dare to fight a bloody road was because he was afraid of directly confronting Hong Juncheng.

Now I don't want hard steel, I have to have hard steel.

Gongsun Wen felt uneasy, he knew that Hong Juncheng had cultivation, and his cultivation was very high, not inferior to him.

In the imperial palace, even if they were evenly matched, Hong Juncheng still had a great advantage.

What worried Gongsun Wen even more was that even after a hard fight and defeating Hong Juncheng, Xu Zhiqiong still took advantage of him in the end.

Between the entanglement, Gongsun Wen made up his mind, only to break through tonight, and never fight Hong Juncheng.

He sorted out every road around the garden in his mind, and after choosing a direction, Gongsun Wenzhong broke through a road from the imperial army with great righteousness, and then broke through.

The guards didn't expect the assassin to be so powerful, so they rushed to catch up, from the garden to Shen's quiet residence, and lost it.

The reason sounds very absurd, just because God's quiet dwelling is the boundary between the front and back houses.

The gods dealt with government affairs in the front hall, and went to the god's quiet residence to calm down, and then went to the back palace to enjoy life.

The entry of the imperial army into the harem is tantamount to entering the harem area, which requires the permission of the emperor, and Gongsun Wen made full use of the weakness of the imperial army's fear of entering the harem at will, hid in the harem, and successfully escaped from the imperial army's pursuit.

This guy is so well prepared!
The forbidden army can't chase, but can the servants chase him?

can chase.

But the servants can only call people, and cannot fight Gongsun Wen, this is Xu Zhiqiong's order.

First of all, all the servants in the palace, except Qin Yan who can barely deal with it, are no match for Gongsun Wen.

Moreover, Xu Zhiqiong did not allow any servant to reveal his cultivation.

Be patient.

It was Hong Juncheng who dealt with Gongsun Wen, and he could not let his own strength be damaged.

The forbidden army quickly got Hong Juncheng's permission and directly entered the harem.

Wait, why go directly to the harem?Gongsun Wen is in the quiet residence of God!How did you skip it?
You don't check it out, just skip it, what kind of attitude is this?What sense of responsibility is this?
Everyone thought that Gongsun Wen had gone to the harem, and if he didn't have a clever eye, even Xu Zhiqiong would think that Gongsun Wen had gone to the harem.

Moreover, the forbidden army seems to have received an order to let them go directly to the harem and not to stay in the quiet residence of God.

Xu Zhiqiong was anxious, and kept reminding Li Quangen by taking pictures, asking him to send someone to Shenjingju to check, as long as he shouted twice, he would be able to expose Gongsun Wen.

However, making pictures cannot convey such detailed information. Li Quangen is instructing the eunuch of Zhidian to arrest the assassin, and now he cannot receive Xu Zhiqiong's letter.

Shenjingju is a courtyard with three entrances vertically and horizontally, and Gongsun Wen hides beside a pond in the main courtyard.

Hearing the voices outside gradually fade away, Gongsun Wen got up quietly, ready to jump off the wall and leave.

In the calm pond, a figure slowly emerged and appeared behind Gongsun Wen.

Gongsun Wen also noticed it, and was about to turn his head when he suddenly felt his joints sluggish.

Pan python skill!

Canglong's domineering technique!
In the hall of the gods, there is only one person with domineering skills, and that is Hong Juncheng.

Xu Zhiqiong laughed, it turned out that the old emperor was so treacherous.

Let's do it.

When the two of you fight to the point where both of you are hurt, it's up to me and Lao Chang to take care of you.

Thank you for the new leader Huayan Gourd, thank you for the new leader Falcon White, thank you for the eternal fairy tale dream of the first and old leader, thank you for the leader enjoymm, thank you for the master Xueshan Yuanfeng, thank you all the guardians, all the hall masters, all the rudder masters, all the deacons, Thank you for your help to Shala at the critical moment, and thanks to every reader for your long-term support and encouragement.
