Chapter 86

The second floor is still facing the window.

However, the wind was blowing today, so the windows were not opened, and a small stove was set up in the middle of the table to warm the wine.

Lu Yan first poured a glass of warm wine for Xie Zhuoyan, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Xie Zhuoyan shook her head and said, "Your horse runs fast, but it's okay."

Lu Yan turned to ask: "Is the matter settled?"

Xie Zhuoyan nodded, and said: "Sure enough, there are old priests in the royal family, but they are all old and frail, and no longer the courage of the past."

Lu Yan nodded slightly when he heard the words, the result was reasonable and not beyond his expectation.

He took a sip of wine and said: "When Ximen Chuixue and I made an appointment to fight on the top of the Forbidden City, the emperor must be very angry when the news got out. According to common sense, he should directly send the royal family's priests to eradicate me with thunder. It's in good spirits."

"But the emperor didn't do that. He handed over the task of eradicating me to Cao Zhengchun and Lord Tiedan."

"But Cao Zhengchun and Tie Dan Shenhou each had their own ghosts, and they didn't do anything to me for various reasons."

"I was happy for this to happen before, but after Master Jie died and someone framed me, I just wanted to understand one thing."

"Cao Zhengchun and Tie Dan Shenhou haven't attacked me for a long time. It's not that there is no chance, but they have been using me to test the emperor's bottom line!"

"And to settle the matter of Master's death is a further temptation!"

"If the emperor still doesn't do anything to me under such circumstances, it means that the priests of the royal family have most likely become paper tigers!"

Xie Zhuoyan nodded slightly when she heard Lu Yan's words, and said, "That Huang Jiuyin was a person who once followed Emperor Yongle, and he is at least 50 years old today."

A person who is one hundred and forty years old, no matter how powerful he was back then, how much strength is left now?
Of course, with the exception of Zhang Zhenren in Wudang Mountain, Wufu cannot be equated with a person who cultivates immortals.

Speaking of this, Xie Zhuoyan said again: "By the way, before I left the capital, I saw that the sky prison was blown up by gunpowder. Presumably, Lord Tiedan and the others have already been killed. Cao Zhengchun should be the winner."

Lu Yan shook his head. Others don't know what's going on, so can he still not?

Seeing Lu Yan shaking his head, Xie Zhuoyan asked with some doubts, "Do you think that the God of Tiedan is still alive, and there is still a chance to come back?"

Lu Yan nodded and said, "Zhu Tiedan won't die so easily."

Lu Yan picked up two chopsticks and said, "After you came back, you didn't mention the emperor's response at all. It seems that the emperor has not responded."

Xie Zhuoyan was a little surprised, and asked, "How do you know that the emperor didn't respond, instead of agreeing or refusing?"

Lu Yan smiled and said, "You should have followed what I said and didn't say my request."

Xie Zhuoyan nodded.

When she left the inn back then, Lu Yan had told her that if the emperor was willing to accept his overtures, he would take the opportunity to make a request to settle the trouble of the battle on the top of the Forbidden City and make it legal.

If the emperor doesn't accept his overture, or if he is ambiguous, then keep silent about the fight.

Seeing Xie Zhuoyan nodding, Lu Yan said with a smile: "Our emperor is very smart, he knows that I can't show favor to him for no reason, I must have interests."

"And my interest appeal is nothing more than to legalize the appointment to fight on the top of the Forbidden City, and to eliminate the grievances between me and the royal family."

"The reason why he didn't agree or refuse is because he has a big appetite and good ideas."

"He doesn't want to let me go, and he doesn't want to let Cao Zhengchun go. He also thinks that as the emperor's uncle, the god of iron and courage is noble, and he is already the ultimate minister, so he shouldn't rebel."

"In short, he sees potential danger, but he will not make a decision until the danger has actually emerged."

"In that case, let's wait in peace until he begs us!"

Having said that, Lu Yan smiled softly, with a little helplessness on his face.

After all, this is the world of martial arts. Although one person's power is strong, it is the ultimate to be an enemy of a hundred people. If you are facing an army of ten thousand people, even Master Wudang Zhang may not be able to kill him before his true energy is exhausted.

If it was in a fantasy world, where personal force is paramount, and one punch can sink the mainland, there is no need for him to show his favor to the emperor, just do it and it's over.

Xie Zhuoyan had a thoughtful look on his face when he heard Lu Yan's words.

At this time, a person came downstairs suddenly, she looked around, and when she saw Lu Yan, she walked over quickly!
"Mr. Lu! Where's Pingzhi? You didn't do anything to him, did you?!"

Lu Yan looked at the haggard and nervous Yue Lingshan who suddenly appeared, pointed to the fourth floor, and said, "Lin Pingzhi is currently staying in the T-sized room, you can find him there."

Yue Lingshan heard Lu Yan's words, turned around and walked upstairs without saying a word.

Xie Zhuoyan looked at Yue Lingshan leaving in a hurry, seemed to have thought of something, and said, "Tell me, the person who stabbed the sword at Master Jie Jie was Yue Buqun?"

Xie Zhuoyan had fought with Yue Buqun before, Yue Buqun's swordsmanship was extremely ghostly, and his speed was as fast as thunder, so there was every chance that he could stab twelve swords in an instant.

Lu Yan took a sip of his wine and said with a smile, "Did you just think of Yue Buqun?"

As soon as he heard the news, Lu Yan already thought that Yue Buqun was most likely responsible for this matter.

It is most appropriate to use the evil spirit sword technique to do this kind of thing of framing him.

Lu Yan stretched out his hand to open the window, revealing a small crack. He looked at the snowflakes outside the window and said, "It's almost Chinese New Year, and the snow finally fell."

Xie Zhuoyan also pushed open the window and looked at the wind and snow outside the window. Before she knew it, the Chinese New Year was coming.

Lu Yan glanced at Xie Zhuoyan, and asked, "The Chinese New Year will be in half a month, don't you plan to go home and reunite with your family?"

Xie Zhuoyan thought for a while, and replied: "I should go back."

Xie Zhuoyan didn't miss home very much when she didn't mention going home, but when she mentioned it now, she felt a little bit like an arrow.

Lu Yan stood up and said, "I'll see you off."

Xie Zhuoyan was stunned for a moment, and said, "I didn't say I was going to leave soon."

Lu Yan smiled, "The expression on your face already says it all."

As he said that, Lu Yan couldn't help being curious about Xie Zhuoyan's real appearance. The quality of the human skin mask was also very good, and the expression looked very natural, not stiff at all.

Outside Qixia Town.

Xie Zhuoyan took Li Feisha by the hand and said: "Your horse runs fast, I'll borrow it again, go early and return early."

Lu Yan touched Li Feisha with a smile, and said, "Poor horse, it took a while to rest and is forced to go on the road again. You have to take good care of it so that it doesn't die of exhaustion on the road."

Xie Zhuoyan got on the horse, Lu Yan looked at her, cupped his hands and said, "Happy New Year to you in advance."

 Some book friends feel that the protagonist has a system and is a unparalleled master, so he shouldn't have so many worries.

  But in the world of martial arts, although there is force value, it is low after all, so there are many restrictions.

  In this case, the protagonist has no way to run wild with his strength like the protagonist in the fantasy world.

  Unless you want to rebel, or you have nothing to worry about, and you don't fear anything, otherwise you have to act within the rules.

  Of course, there will be some book friends who say that the previous protagonist is also causing trouble everywhere and causing trouble.

  I want to say that no one is perfect, and the protagonist will also have things that he can't consider, and there will be impulsive moments.

  It may also be that my writing ability is not enough to conceive a protagonist who is perfect in all aspects, and I am quite helpless about this.
