Domineering

Chapter 348 The Price of the Son of Heaven (for Subscription)
When Qing Xuzi stepped into the Hall of Zhenghe, a large group of Imperial Guards and Jin Yiwei were rushing out from the collapsed end gate, driving away the crowd of onlookers outside the imperial city.

Whether it was court officials or Jianghu martial arts practitioners, they were all driven away.

All the people watching the battle did not dare to stay, and they scattered like birds and beasts in an instant.

These imperial guards are extremely domineering, as long as the Jianghu Wuxiu stays for a while, a rain of arrows rains down on them.

Those imperial officials took a second look inside the palace gate, and some people took court sticks and iron whips and slapped them away mercilessly.

The imperial court and the emperor had nothing to do with Wuxiang Shenzong and Li Changsheng, but they were not polite to them.

"What are you looking at? Get out of here, everyone!"

"Li Yuesan, try again on the roof? Don't you call yourself an eight-legged spider? Believe it or not, I'll tear off all your spider legs?"

"All officials, please go back to your office! Before noon, do not act without authorization, do not discuss privately, otherwise you will be punished for the crime of disrespect, disrespect, and gossip!"

"People from the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple come with me. The suzerain of Wuxiang Shenzong has an audience with the emperor today. According to Taizu's "Da Ning Ji Li", the head of the first-rank Shenzong is the same prince! As officials of ceremonies, we must not neglect."

"Your Majesty has an order! Since His Majesty succeeded to the throne, the protection of the imperial city has been lax for a long time. Today, His Majesty deliberately used the hands of the Wuxiang Suzerain to try it out, and warned the Imperial Palace Supervisor and the imperial guards. The people in the city do not need to panic."

"I told you guys, don't gossip after you leave! Otherwise, the imperial court's law will be set up just for you!"

When all the Wuxiu martial artists ran away in a panic, they all shook their heads.

They all feel that the court and the emperor are shameless.

The gates of the palace were all smashed and collapsed, several first-rank celestial rankings in the palace were also seriously injured, and even the emperor himself seemed to be seriously injured after his fight with Li Changsheng just now.

——Is this actually the Son of Heaven specially asking Wuxiang Sovereign to break into the palace in order to strengthen the defense of the palace?
Did they think that they could stop the mouths of everyone in the world?
This is simply deception!
The disturbance on the ground did not affect the air.

Those Imperial Guards and Jin Yiwei turned a blind eye to the dozen or so people on the Tianbang floating in the air and let them go.

The 'lawless' Si Fu, who was suspended in the void, also didn't care about the Imperial Army and Jin Yiwei below.

"This really doesn't look like Li Changsheng."

She looked into the depths of the palace, her expression uncertain; "I have met Li Changsheng a few times in the past. Although this man is a rare hero in the world, he hides his depth and wisdom like a fool. It is hard to imagine that this man will be so sharp today—— "

Si couldn't remember that the Wuxiang suzerain was not only black-bellied, but also very goofy.

Standing nearby, Wang Dongtian put his hands behind his back and didn't take it seriously: "It should be because of the Sword of Delusion, right? I've heard about the power of this sword. Any kung fu can be promoted to several realms, and it can also imitate any laws of heaven, or strengthen it. This sword is strong, but the price is that the user will be arrogant and arrogant."

The so-called formlessness means that it is true to reality, and it is also called true as wonderful way. It is the root of heaven and earth, the body of all things in the world, the ancestor of all dharmas, the master of nine orifices, and the foundation of life and death, so it can simulate all dharmas.

"Impossible!" Si couldn't shake his head, with a puzzled look on his face: "It's not that Li Changsheng has never used the God's Delusion Sword before. You have never seen him. His Dao heart is so strong that it may be second to none in the world! He will be It is affected by the Divine Delusion Sword, but it will not be affected too much."

"Oh?"

Wang Dongtian couldn't help but fell into deep thought: "Then I may have guessed something, there are roughly two reasons, one is Nilin, the dragon has Nilin, and the phoenix has a neck, touching it will kill you, it should be some deeds of the court that touched his body. The bottom line has violated the foundation of Wuxiang Shenzong. The second is deterrence, deterring the world, and showing it to be strong."

"Show it to be strong?" Si Fu was thoughtful.

"Si Fu, you haven't managed power, so you don't understand." Wang Dongtian smiled: "In the past, the world was peaceful, and Wuxiang Shenzong naturally needed to restrain its edge, hide its strength and bide its time, so as not to be targeted by all parties; The army of the city is coming to the west, and the landing is imminent, so the Wuxiang Shenzong needs to show its strength in turn, so that all forces in the world will not dare to invade, and avoid unnecessary conflicts and losses."

Then he looked at the depths of the palace with great emotion: "However, this person's power is too amazing. It's just a sword! What kind of power is the Emperor Jianyuan's Tianzi Sword and the Kowloon God Tianshou? The secret method of the emperor gathered hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Qi, blood, and essence, even those super-grade ones who can't be hidden in the world, also need to stay away.

You and I are probably not the enemies of Emperor Jianyuan Shihe, but now he can't catch Li Changsheng's sword.Today's battle will surely shake the world, this Wuxiang Suzerain is the real No.1 in the world—”

"It's just for restraint. Li Changsheng is very strong, but he is not strong enough to suppress super grades. It's just his way of balance, which completely restrains Emperor Jianyuan's Yiying body. Whether it's his Tianzi Sword, or the Nine Dragon God Tianshou, or It is the secret method of the emperor's way, which is vulnerable to Li Changsheng."

Si couldn't squint his eyes, his eyes were cold and stern: "It's the Emperor Jianyuan, he really shouldn't be underestimated. A few years ago, when I heard that this man killed the Chilong and killed himself the Daning Dragon Vein, I just thought that this man was acting absurdly, and he was already in a daze. .

Now it seems that it is absurd.Unexpectedly, he has stepped into the first rank, and even usurped the "Guiyi" of the Tieshan Qin family and the "Vientiane" of the Chu family!He acts quite methodically, and his mighty power has already surpassed Daning Taizu by a lot.What he lacks now is time. He only needs to integrate these forces a little bit and fuse them into one. Who in this world is his opponent? "

With such cultivation and strength, Emperor Jianyuan could recreate a dragon vein for Daning before he abdicated.

Most of the monarchs after the "Xuanhuang Shidi" were short-lived.

Emperor Jianyuan was supposed to be approaching his twilight years.

But since this one has a first-grade cultivation base, at least he can live for more than a hundred years——

That's why the dragon veins of Daning were broken, but the fate of the country was far from the moment of decline. On the contrary, it will rise to the extreme in the past hundred years.

"I heard that decades ago, there was a brilliant sorcerer who foretold the fate of the country in Daning. He once left a prophecy that Qin and Chu were good, and the sun rose to the west. Coincidentally, the cemetery of Bawu King is exactly To the west of Wang'an City, at the foot of the western hill. Her unmarried husband-in-law is Chu Zheng, the last bloodline of the Chu family in the west of Beijing. Perhaps this prophecy should be on Emperor Jianyuan."

Wang Dongtian smiled, with sarcasm in his eyes: "Your Majesty has big schemes, but you don't need to worry too much. You haven't seen the major gods today, and they haven't seen anyone yet. They haven't interfered with today's changes in Miyagi? And the Confucian sects?" It’s been too long to come, turn a blind eye to Li Changsheng’s move to break into the palace, and don’t listen to it?”

Si couldn't understand.

For tens of thousands of years, the major sects of the gods and the dynasties of China have checked and balanced each other. Even in troubled times, it is impossible for one family to dominate.

There is also the "Confucianism" that kneads the world's literati and aristocratic families together.

They control the place, not only have the power to counter the sects, but also restrict the emperors of all dynasties.

Today, however, none of these forces are present.

Isn't the reason behind it thought-provoking?
※※※※

In the Zhenghe Hall, although Li Changsheng restrained his sword energy and murderous intent, the atmosphere here was still as cold as ice.

When Li Changsheng walked into the hall, he waved his sleeves to attract the earth and rocks in front of the imperial steps, forming a grand teacher's chair, and then he sat down on the chair.

Seeing this, several first-rank officials of the imperial court who came in behind didn't take it seriously and didn't say a word.

According to the etiquette and laws formulated by the Taizu of Daning, the heads of the major gods are the same princes.

The Wuxiang Shenzong is also the head of the world's Shenzong, Li Changsheng's status is bound to be higher than the others.

So if you really think about it, there is nothing wrong with knocking on the palace today and forcibly breaking into the Forbidden City.

According to the edict issued by Taizu Daning, the masters of the major sects have the right to visit the emperor at any time.

Besides, now is not the time to talk about etiquette.

The imperial court is not as powerful as others, so talking about Daning etiquette and imperial court regulations with Li Changsheng at this time, isn't it self-inflicted humiliation?

This time, Li Changsheng did not deliberately use the Heavenly Sword to level the Jianyuan Emperor on the throne to the same height as himself.

After this battle, how could this emperor be qualified to watch him from a high place?

Looking at the whole world, few people can look down on him.

Li Changsheng looked relieved, with a smile on his face: "It turns out that the palace eunuch and inner eunuch made the decision, so how does His Majesty plan to deal with it?"

On the throne, Emperor Jianyuan was graceful and composed, and apart from his pale face, there was hardly any abnormality: "Then what does the suzerain think should be done with this person? I am here to plead for him.

Zong Daban has been in charge of the Ouchi Zhidian Supervisor for decades. During this period, he resisted and resolved no less than [-] assassinations for me. He even killed more than [-] demon heads on the blood list with his own hands. He also killed many monsters that caused troubles in the world. Hehe.Today must be the result of seeing that I am exhausted and dedicated to protecting the Lord, so please forgive me. "

Ben Yijuechen Zong Qianliu was slightly moved, but without saying a word, he bowed deeply to Emperor Jianyuan.

Li Changsheng couldn't help feeling emotional again.

As expected of Jianyuan——

Daning Taizu and the hero after Taizong.

I have met my opponent.

He regretted that he didn't point a finger at this person just now.

However, the attitudes of the five great god sects, the seventeen sects of the second rank, and the Confucian sects of the world should not be ignored.

If the world is not in chaos, the Wuxiang Shenzong cannot lightly start the source of chaos, otherwise it will cause resentment among all people and be backlashed by the world.

At that time, even if Wuxiang Shenzong had the protection of Mu Jianxian, it would inevitably perish.

This is a sin against the sky, and there is nothing to pray for.

Emperor Jianyuan beheaded nine red dragons and cut off the dragon's veins. Isn't it a threat?
Once this person dies, Daning will surely perish, and the world will return to chaos.

The emperor took all the people of the world as hostages and used them to coerce all parties.

In previous years, the big deal would be to change the emperor. There are so many people in the Daning clan, they can choose whatever they want.

However, now, the six great sects of the gods had to be wary.

The killing intent in Li Changsheng's heart was almost unstoppable.

As long as the Jianyuan Emperor is still alive, there will be endless troubles for Wuxiang Shenzong.

Then he thought of Chu Xisheng.

If it was a year ago, he would definitely have chosen a suitable time and a suitable method to perish with Emperor Jianyuan and cut off the disaster for Wuxiang Shenzong.

And now-

Li Changsheng's mood calmed down: "This person has little merit for the peace of the world, otherwise Li would have taken his life just now. However, this person's temperament is so rebellious, it is a disaster rather than a blessing for the court. No matter how eager to protect the Lord, it is impossible Do not disregard the rules of the court, let alone disregard the will of the owner. If he dares to make a claim now, wouldn't he have the guts to falsely preach the imperial decree in the future?

I have two ideas, one is to ask Your Majesty to abolish this person’s cultivation base and exile him on the frontier for the crime of disrespect and blocking the inside and outside; Nail, responsible for monitoring.This person must either serve 30 years of hard labor in the north, or kill three first-rank giant spirits or monsters, otherwise he is not allowed to return to the south of the cliff mountain range. "

As soon as he said this, Emperor Jianyuan's facial muscles twitched slightly.

The rest of the people in the hall relaxed.

Li Changsheng was willing to let it go, which meant that there was no need to die today, and there was something to talk about.

"it is good!"

Emperor Jianyuan didn't even bargain, and resolutely agreed: "According to the suzerain's will, from now on, the position of Zongqianliu Da Neizhi Palace Supervisor will be taken away, and he will be distributed to the frontiers to be used by General Anbei. For the sake of love, I bestowed the 'Super Light Sword' on the former Taizong's troops, and Wang Zong's great companion worked sincerely in the Northern Territory and made great achievements early."

Zong Qianliu couldn't help trembling slightly.

'Super Light Sword' is Taizong's troops, and its rank is close to half-step super-grade.

This sword is usually offered to the Taimiao, and only when the court encounters a strong enemy, or if there is a big evil that needs to be punished, will Emperor Jianyuan bestow this sword.

Zong Qianliu's face was flushed, with tears in his eyes, he kowtowed again and said, "I will definitely not disappoint His Majesty. It will last ten years or five years, and I will definitely return to Your Majesty's presence."

Li Changsheng didn't care about the drama of Emperor Jianyuan's win over his subjects.

Any first-rank martial artist in the human race is extremely precious.

For example, there are only more than seventy ones on the list today.

Even if you add those who are hidden from the world, there are also major sects, and first-rank members of the major sects who have faded out of the world, there are no more than 120 people.

The battle power of the first rank is a little bit more, such as Qing Xuzi, whose cultivation is on the second rank, but his strength can already enter the bottom of the list.

Most of these people are in the north, either on the front line against the giant spirits, or went to Middle Earth to pursue their martial arts.

In fact, there are not many people staying in China, only three to fifty people.

In addition, they also used various methods to control some first-rank alien races.

But this little power is still too weak compared to the four great gods of the Giant Spirit.

Today's China is even powerless against a 'Buzhou Mountain'.

If it weren't for the restraint of the internal forces of the giant spirits, only a night wolf clan could contend with them, and a single 'Buzhou Mountain' could conquer Shenzhou.

Li Changsheng didn't care whether Zong Qianliu was still loyal to the royal family, as long as he could get rid of the three first-rank giant spirits, the pressure on Wuxiang Shenzong would be greatly reduced.

This is a one-for-three exchange, which is still very cost-effective.

"Then why did the imperial court use the Black Cloud Impermanence Army to attack and kill the sacred biography of our Wuxiang Sect?"

Li Changsheng sneered: "Could it be another person who made a claim? Using power for personal gain?"

He glanced at the crowd behind him.

At this time, apart from the inner court figures headed by the Chief Inspector Zhen Tianlai, other important ministers above the second rank of the imperial court also gathered here.

Among them is Chu Rulai, the left servant of the Ministry of punishment and the head of the Chu family in the west of Beijing.

He was stared at by Li Changsheng, and his pupils shrank slightly.

This matter cannot be handled by Ben Yi Jue Chen Zong Qianliu alone.

Zong Qianliu took responsibility for the emperor's refusal to see Li Changsheng, so it is impossible for him to take responsibility for this case.

Li Changsheng first convicted Zong Qianliu.

The purpose is to challenge him, Chu Rulai.

Then he walked out from the crowd without changing his face: "Sect Master, Chu knows a thing or two about this matter. This matter should be related to an old case in Dongzhou. A few years ago, Sikong Chan, the prefect of Xiushui County, colluded with the local gentry to plot a rebellion. , was wiped out after being identified by the governor of Dongzhou.

Zhuquetang of the Six Gates has doubts about the case, believing that Sikong Chan was framed by someone, and Chu Xisheng, a disciple of the noble sect, was involved.This person was once forced to rebel by Sikong Chan, during which he committed numerous bloody crimes, killing and arresting dozens of people in Zhuquetang.So Suzakutang has been persevering in investigating the case. "

This matter has little to do with him, so Chu Rulai looked calm: "A few days ago, Chu has submitted all the files of the Xiushui County rebellion case to Dali Temple to close the case. But Zhu Quhou refused to give up. He thinks the key lies in Chu Xi. A voice. In view of the lack of manpower and strength in Zhuquetang, I privately contacted the Zhidian Supervisor, and asked the Zhidian Supervisor to take action and arrest Chu Xisheng for interrogation."

This was an excuse they had prepared in advance to deal with the Wuxiang Shenzong's accountability afterwards.

Ouchi Zhidian even got the official document from Zhuquetang asking for help.

At this time, Zhuquehou was also in the Zhenghe Palace.

He was around thirty, with handsome features and a feminine temperament.

After this man heard the words, his eyes widened immediately, and he glared at Chu Rulai angrily: "Chu Rulai, you—"

Then he thought of the official document he had handed over by himself, and his face turned pale.

At that time, Chu Rulai offered advice and suggestions to him.

Zhuquehou knew that this move would deeply offend Wuxiang Shenzong, but he didn't care much.

The six sects have never been afraid of these great sects of the Shenzong, let alone the Wuxiang Shenzong who has been forced to retire by Su Fengdao?

However, today Li Changsheng broke into the palace and destroyed the entire inner court of Daning with a destructive force, but the official document he personally signed became the source of disaster for Suzaku Hall.

"There is such a thing??"

Li Changsheng withdrew his gaze. He glanced at the calm Emperor Jianyuan sitting on the throne, and then at the Lord of the Six Gates in the crowd, the contemporary "House of Beichen" Cardinal Beichen.

"Then Li, I would like to ask Beichen Shenhou, do you have any real evidence that you six sects want to arrest my Wuxiang Shenzong disciple? Is there any official document from the imperial court?"

Cardinal Beichen frowned, then smiled wryly, "No."

Chu Rulai bowed and said, "The Criminal Department reviewed the Sikong Chan conspiracy case a few months ago at the request of Zhuquehou. There are all witnesses and material evidence, and the Dali Temple has also finalized the case. There is no doubt about it."

It was originally there, but it disappeared after I heard that Immortal Mu Jian had proclaimed the Dao.

Not even now.

Bai Huhou was also in the crowd, and when she heard this, she couldn't help feeling chills in her heart.

She had foreseen that Lord Suzaku would pay the price for his negligence.

The relationship between her and Suzaku Hou is actually not very good, and there are frequent quarrels in official affairs.

But after all, the two sides are colleagues and have worked together for many years.

Bai Huhou couldn't help feeling sad for the death of the rabbit and the fox.

She could understand Suzaku Hou, who just wanted to seek justice for the dead brothers of the Six Doors, and wanted to convict Chu Xisheng, the real culprit.

It's a pity that this person has lost his respect for the rules in his heart, and the means he used have crossed the line.

In the past, even if Suzaku Hou did this, others would have nothing to do with him.

However, today, the Wuxiang suzerain was crushed like a mountain.

"So you six doors acted recklessly and abused your power?"

Li Changsheng was speechless when he saw Cardinal Beichen of Six Gates and God of Four Elephants, so he turned his head and looked at Emperor Jianyuan: "The imperial court must give me an explanation for Wuxiang Shenzong!"

Emperor Jianyuan followed good deeds, his face was solemn and majestic, and he nodded slightly: "This matter really needs to be severely punished! It is not to explain to the noble family, but to maintain the law of our dynasty. The six gates are in charge of arrests, inspections, prisoners, public security, etc. He is responsible for pre-warning and ordering the world, and his power and responsibility are inferior to those of the Ministry of War. As the head of the six sects, how can Zhuquehou know how to break the law?
If the people in the six doors don't abide by the court's laws, how about the common people?How can the states of the world be stable?What's more, the turmoil in the palace today was all caused by Zhuquehou's arbitrariness of power, even I was blamed by the suzerain because of him. "

Many important officials in the hall, including Taifu and Taibao, nodded their heads one after another when they heard the words.

In their eyes, Suzakuhou is indeed the chief culprit, the source of the disaster.

If it weren't for the arbitrariness of Zhuquehou of the Six Gates, how could Li Changsheng come to the door to question the crime, causing serious injuries to more than ten thousand soldiers of the imperial army, and severe damage to the reputation and authority of the emperor and the court?
If the Son of Heaven does not punish this person severely, even these people will not be convinced.

Emperor Jianyuan changed his voice at this time: "But because of Zhuquehou's past achievements, capital punishment is inevitable, and living crime is inevitable. Sovereign, why not follow the example of Zong Qianliu before and send this person to Northern Xinjiang. Xiangshenzong is responsible for monitoring. This person must either serve 30 years of hard labor in the Northland, or kill three second-rank giant spirits to atone for his past sins."

His relationship with the six doors is actually relatively distant.

The six doors were handed down from the previous dynasty and have existed for tens of thousands of years, even dating back to the time of Emperor Xuanhuang.

Therefore, the six doors are relatively independent in the imperial court system.

Emperor Jianyuan didn't like Zhuquehou's character either, but he was willing to keep an enemy of Wuxiang Shenzong.

This was the thought in Li Changsheng's mind.

Zhuquehou would be a threat to Chu Xisheng if he was placed in Wanganjing, but if he were used in Beidi, he would be a hero.

He didn't immediately agree, and turned to look at Cardinal Beichen from a distance: "As far as I know, Zhuang Mingdao, the third-rank purple-clothed deity of six sects and third-rank martial arts, has outstanding achievements, is shrewd and capable, and is an excellent candidate to inherit the Suzaku Mansion. "

'Beichen Shenhou' Cardinal Beichen knew that this was Li Changsheng's condition, a condition for Suzakuhou to survive.

The purple-clothed god Zhuang Mingdao that Li Changsheng spoke of was a true disciple of the Wuxiang Sect.

In fact, there are many disciples of Wuxiang Shenzong who serve in the six sects.

He thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Zhuang Mingdao's martial arts and character are indeed excellent, as long as it is found out that this person has no bad deeds, I will personally recommend him to succeed Suzaku."

Cardinal Beichen has no objection to this matter.

Their six doors have long been infiltrated into sieves by the emperor, aristocratic families and major sects.

And in recent years, due to intentional or unintentional suppression by the emperor, the six sects have been quite unfair to the disciples of the Wuxiang Shenzong in the sect, and they have repeatedly suppressed them.

Now that Li Changsheng has defeated the inner court with supreme divine power and trampled the face of the emperor to the ground, the six doors should naturally know the current affairs.

From Cardinal Beichen's point of view, as long as there are many god arresters in the door, the chief arrester can fulfill their duties and fulfill their duties, it doesn't matter who they are.

"good!"

A smile finally appeared on Li Changsheng's face: "This time, the supervisor of Da Nei Zhidian set up an ambush in Guixu, seriously injuring my disciple, and consumed dozens of jade talismans, shattered several precious instruments, and countless precious pills. Only survived by chance, there needs to be an explanation for this matter.”

He's got everything he wanted, and now it's time to demand compensation for Chu Xi.
