Chapter 1596 Phantom of the Night

Although it was already late at night, Feng Yuanpo invited Xuanzhen Daozong over as quickly as possible. Xuanzhen Daozong had a childish face, a fairy-like face, and when he arrived at the gate of Juxian Palace, Xuanyuan Shao was already at the main entrance waiting.

"Daozong!" Seeing Xuanzhen Daozong, Xuanyuan Shao did not lose his courtesy, and bowed his hands in salute.

Xuanzhen Daozong held the fly whisk in his hand and asked, "How is the Dragon Body of the True Monarch?"

"The Holy One is already waiting inside." Xuanyuan Shao said: "The Holy One has a decree that after Zhenzong arrives, he can enter the palace immediately."

Xuanzhen Daozong nodded slightly, Xuanyuan Shao made a gesture, and the guards guarding the gate moved out of the way, Xuanzhen Daozong flicked his whisk and floated forward, the gate opened, and he floated into the palace like a cloud.

Feng Yuanpo watched the gate close again, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile to Xuanyuan Shao: "Since Daozong is here, the Holy Majesty must be safe and sound. General Xuanyuan is guarding the Heavenly Palace day and night, it is really hard work."

"The duty lies in the duty of a courtier, just like Duke Zhong governing Hexi and guarding the northern border." Xuanyuan Shao said calmly.

Feng Yuanpo smiled, looked back at the magnificent square, and said with a smile: "In a few days, this place will be full of fire and oil, and it will be very lively. It is the honor of the people of Hexi to be able to hold such a grand ceremony in Hexi.”

Xuanyuan Shao said: "Mr. Zhongguo, my duty is to protect the safety of the Heavenly Palace, and even more so, the safety of the Holy One. Naturally, the birthday ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is very lively, but when the time comes, the vigilance must be strengthened. When there are more people, the vigilance will also increase." It must be strengthened."

Feng Yuanpo's smile stopped, and he said solemnly: "What General Xuanyuan said is very true. We have already made such preparations. Not only will we mobilize soldiers and horses to strengthen the guards, but also those who enter the Heavenly Palace, no matter what their status is, , must be strictly searched, and no one is allowed to bring weapons into the Tiangong. The birthday ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is extremely sacred, and this Tiangong is a peaceful place, so there is no bloodshed."

"Mr. Zhong has this arrangement, so he is confident." Xuanyuan Shao rarely showed a slight smile on his face.

After waiting outside for a while, he saw Xuanzhen Daozong coming out slowly. Feng Yuanpo rushed to meet him, cupped his hands and asked, "Daozong, my lord...?"

"Don't worry." Xuanzhen Daozong said with a smile: "The Holy One just suffered from a slight cold at night, and the dragon's body doesn't matter. Before the grand ceremony, it must be back to normal."

Feng Yuanpo heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "That's good."

"General Xuanyuan, the poor Taoist will take your leave first...!" Xuanzhen Daozong saluted Xuanyuan Shao, and Feng Yuanpo also said: "Since the body of the holy dragon is safe, we servants can rest assured...General Xuanyuan , I will also take my leave first, Daozong, I will take you back to the palace on the way."

"Thank you." Xuanzhen Daozong said with a smile. The two walked out of the main gate of the Temple of Heaven and walked towards the wide road made of white marble on the right. On a crystal clear white jade belt, Xuanzhen Daozong is wearing a Taoist robe with a fairy-like bone. Walking on it, it is really like a fairy walking in the heavenly court.

"Daozong, how is the situation?" Feng Yuanpo asked in a low voice, following Xuanzhen Daozong.

Xuanzhen Daozong did not turn his head, but said softly: "Don't worry, Duke, there is nothing wrong inside, he is indeed suffering from a minor illness...!"

"Oh?" Feng Yuanpo looked stern, "Xuanyuan Shao led people to guard Juxian Palace, but what does he mean?"

"Yes." Xuanzhen Daozong said: "I'm afraid he was frightened too much. Because of fright, fright hurts internal organs, so his body has a problem. He wanted to send someone out of the palace to report to the Duke. It happened that Zhou Ting entered the palace yesterday. See you, he is worried that those ministers will enter the palace because of this, so he ordered Xuanyuanshao to lead people to guard Juxian Palace and not let anyone enter the palace to see him."

Feng Yuanpo frowned and said, "You mean he was worried that those ministers would see his flaws?"

"That's right." Xuanzhen Daozong said softly: "Zhou Ting's group are all very shrewd people. It is better to be rare if they can be seen less, so as to avoid other accidents."

Feng Yuanpo nodded slightly, "From this point of view, he still has a bit of adaptability, but he is not completely stupid. That's right, Daozong, how is he doing now?"

"Don't worry, Duke." Xuanzhen Daozong said with a smile, "I've already given him a few pills, which can calm his nerves and calm his nerves. The situation has improved."

Feng Yuanpo sneered and said, "It's just that since he ordered me to be blocked outside the hall, he really has the guts."

"Guogong, from a poor Taoist point of view, he did not do badly." Xuanzhen Daozong comforted: "He neither dared to see the officials nor summoned the imperial doctor. Under such circumstances, if Just summoning you, Duke, the matter seems very abnormal. Think about it, Duke, Xuanyuan Shao is a scheming person, and others are fine. If Xuanyuan Shao sees the problem and becomes suspicious of the Duke, the consequences will be unimaginable. "

"Xuanyuan Shao...!" Feng Yuanpo clenched his fists and said coldly, "As long as his bow and arrows are not on him, getting rid of him is easy...!"

Xuanzhen Daozong said softly: "Is everything ready on the Duke's side?"

"Don't worry, Daozong." Feng Yuanpo chuckled lightly, "Everything is under arrangement...!" Then he frowned, "It's just that not all the people who should come have come so far."

"Duke is talking about Red Refining Electricity?"

Feng Yuanpo nodded, then shook his head again: "He's not alone. Apart from Liaodong Chilian, Northwest Chu Huan also didn't follow orders...Whether Chilian can arrive is still uncertain, but Northwest Chuhuan is. It is absolutely impossible to come!"

"Oh?" Xuanzhen Daozong turned his head and glanced at Feng Yuanpo, "Why is this? Could it be that Chu Huan really wants to openly resist the order?"

Feng Yuanpo sneered and said: "Although he is already a veritable king of the Northwest, so far, he has not raised the flag of rebellion openly. At this time, I believe he will not be so stupid as to raise the flag of rebellion immediately, but sent to When the Northwest envoy came back, he said that Chu Huan had suddenly fallen ill, and it was said that it was difficult for him to even walk...!"

Xuanzhen Daozong smiled lightly and said: "It seems that the governor of Chu is a scheming person... Liaodong Tiger, Northwest Wolf, Duke, these two are the most troublesome."

"The Northwest is barren, even if Chu Huan wins the Three Ways of the Northwest, he will not be able to enter the customs in a short time." Feng Yuanpo raised his hand and touched his chin, "It's just that the fierce tiger of Chiliandian really worries me day and night... !"

Between the two of them talking, they had already walked a long distance.

……

……

When Feng Yuanpo was talking with Xuanzhen Daozong in Tiangong, Chu Huan was practicing in the post house. It was dead of night, and the guards outside the post house were extremely strict. There was not a single Peacock Terrace in this post house. This courtyard housed many art troupes participating in the ceremony. Originally, the post house was full of people and very lively, but the Department of Rites of Hexi has issued regulations. After entering Zishi, each courtyard must maintain absolute tranquility, and each group strictly Once the members who control themselves enter the Zi, it is forbidden for anyone in the pass to enter and leave the post house at will, but if they disobey, they will be punished as a crime of disobedience, so in the middle of the night, the whole post house is quiet.

After Chu Huan finished his work, it was already entering the ugly hour, and the moonlight was faint outside the window. He was about to lie down and rest, but he heard very light footsteps outside the door. If it were someone else, the light footsteps would never be heard. It was discovered, but Chu Huan's hearing was amazing, and he was always alert, so even though he only heard a very slight movement, he still held his breath, and his eyes had moved to the door.

Although the courtyard where the Peacock Terrace lives is not small, there are dozens of people on and off the Peacock Terrace. Naturally, it is impossible for all of them to have independent rooms, and it is even more impossible to live in a house with inner and outer halls like Jinling Que. Chu Huan lived in the Peacock Terrace. The location of the room is unusual, so it is a single room, but it is only an independent living room, there is no distinction between the outer hall and the inner room. Lying on the bed, one can directly see the door of one's own room.

The moonlight was faint, and because of the moonlight, Chu Huan could see a figure outside had been projected on the door paper. Chu Huan gently touched the inside of the bed with one hand, and touched his package. There are some weird people in the gang, although they don't want to provoke them, and they don't want to have anything to do with them, but it doesn't mean that the other party will let it go.

Chu Huan knew very well that Jing Ke had paid him tea money in the teahouse, and deliberately led himself to that alley, as if to assassinate him, but he vaguely knew that things were by no means so simple, and Jing Ke's identity was unknown. , but it is obvious that he is going to make some fuss about himself.

The figure stood outside the door, and there was no movement for a while. Chu Huan held his breath, and soon heard the sound of rustling, as if something came through the crack of the door, and soon, he heard "da With a sound, Chu Huan sneered in her heart, knowing that the other party had already used a tool to penetrate through the crack of the door and opened the door latch.

The door was gently pushed open, Chu Huan immediately closed his eyes, deliberately pretending to be asleep, but one hand was already holding the package tightly, calmly, watching the changes, and wanted to see what the visitor was going to do ghost.

After the door was pushed open through a gap that only allowed one person to enter, a figure flashed into the room, turned around and closed the door gently, actually re-fastening the bolt.

Chu Huan's eyes slightly opened a slit, and when he squinted, he saw a figure approaching the bed with light steps. While Chu Huan was concentrating, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance that permeated the tip of his nose. A refreshing fragrance penetrated into the nostrils, the fragrance is light but not vulgar, smelling it in the nose makes people feel comfortable.

The figure walked lightly to the bed, two or three steps away from the bed, stopped, and after a while of silence, Chu Huan heard a soft and sweet voice: "Bamboo hero...!"

When Chu Huan heard the voice, he was already taken aback. The voice was naturally called out softly by the person beside the bed, but what surprised Chu Huan was that as soon as the voice spoke, Chu Huan immediately figured out who it was. He hadn't heard it a few times, but he still remembered such a special sweet voice. It was Jinlingque, the head of the Peacock Terrace.
