Chapter 256 Northern Patrol Envoy

Before Yang Liang came to his senses, seven or eight people came over, took off his prison clothes and put on official uniforms.

Someone pushed him to the ground, wiped the soles of his feet with a soft cloth, and put on hard-soled official boots. Someone behind him combed his hair and put on an official hat.

Yang Liang was good at showing off, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to be completely transformed, standing handsomely on the high platform.

The people in the audience were dumbfounded and rubbed their eyes, worried that they were being deceived.

Qiu Muzhi came over and asked the eunuch who delivered the order in a low voice: "Father-in-law, is there something wrong?"

"Be brave, this is the will of the Holy One, do you dare to doubt it?"

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Qiu Muzhi lowered his head. He couldn't figure out how Yang Liang, who had just been a prisoner on death row, had his official robes on him in the blink of an eye and became an imperial envoy patrolling the North for the emperor.

This position is not high-level, but it has great power. It holds Shangfang's sword and has the power to kill first and then report later.

Qiu Muzhi was so greedy that he was drooling. If this position fell to him, he would definitely make a good profit.

Why did it fall on Yang Liang?

The Silver Sword Guard who was responsible for conveying the order came over, approached Yang Liang and said, "Master Li, the princess asked you to come and discuss important matters."

Yang Liang nodded and said, "I'll rush over immediately."

With the Silver Blade Guards opening the way and separating the crowd, Yang Liang rushed all the way to Princess Yushu's residence.

Princess Yushu had already been waiting for him in the hall. When Yang Liang saw Princess Yushu, he lifted his robe and bowed: "Student has met the princess. Thank you for your grace to live, Your Highness."

"OK OK."

Princess Yushu waved her hand and said: "We are all our own people, and there are no outsiders here. There is no need to be polite. Just get up and speak."

Yang Liang stood up, cupped his hands, and asked in a low voice: "Has Your Highness seen His Majesty?"

Princess Yushu shook her head and said, "I begged outside Yusheng Palace for a whole day, and finally a two-finger-wide note came from inside, absolving you of your sin."

His Majesty has not ascended to the imperial court for more than ten years and has been staying in Yusheng Palace. Except for a few serving maids and eunuchs around him, not even Princess Yushu can see him.

Some people say that Wang Ba first refined elixirs and collected medicines in Yusheng Palace to practice the art of ascending to immortality.

Some people also say that Wang Baxian has passed away long ago, and the orders coming from the palace were secretly manipulated.

Yang Liang entered the capital for the first time and knew nothing about Wang Ba's current situation. He only knew that there were many legends in the capital.

"Tuoba dragged him to death, and the Rong tribe will not let it go. This is why we sent you as an envoy to Beirong this time. If you can make the Rong people retreat, it will be a great achievement. If you can't do it, , so don’t come back. The world is big, you can run as far as you can."

"Students must spare no effort and do their best to serve the imperial court."

"Besides sending an envoy to Beirong, there is one more thing that His Majesty personally ordered."

"Oh?"

Yang Liang pricked up his ears, wondering what kind of virtue and ability he had to be able to enter the eyes of the current sage.

Princess Yushu waved her hand and dismissed the other people in the room. Yang Liangliang was shocked. These people were all close to Princess Yushu, and they would not necessarily avoid them even if they had private meetings with other men.

This time, she kicked them out. It seemed that what she was going to say to herself next must be something shocking.

Yang Liang quietly came over and lowered his voice: "If anything happens, just ask the princess. The princess rescued me from the execution ground. From now on, the student will be the princess's friend."

Princess Yushu glanced at him and couldn't help but feel something in her heart. She had to say that Yang Liang was really good-looking. He had suffered some hardships in prison, but he had a mature flavor of vicissitudes of life.

Yang Liang also felt a little strange. As he was talking, the princess's eyes became serious again.

Princess Yushu blushed, coughed slightly and said, "Were you by your side when the Thirteenth King died?" Yang Liang was silent for a moment, then nodded lightly.

"You said that the Thirteen Kings turned into monsters. What was the specific situation at that time? Can you please tell me in detail?"

Yang Liang recalled for a while and repeated the important information to Princess Yushu. The more Princess Yushu listened, her eyes opened wider and her face became paler.

Finally, she took a deep breath and said: "There is such a thing happening at the feet of the Emperor. If His Majesty hadn't mentioned it to me, I would have had no idea."

Yang Liang was moved and asked: "Your Majesty also knows about this?"

Princess Yushu nodded: "This is your Majesty's personal order. It is of great importance, even bigger than the Rong clan's affairs. You must do it well."

As she spoke, she stood up, took a black lacquer box from the table, reached out and opened it, and took out a yellowed scroll.

Gently pushing it away with his white bare hands, Yang Liang moved closer. First he smelled the fragrance coming from Princess Yushu, which made him a little upset.

After seeing the content in the scroll, Yang Liang suddenly opened his eyes wide, took a deep breath, and felt his heart pounding.

There are paintings of gods in the scroll, some with three eyes, some with six arms, and some with scales on their bodies...

Yang Liang failed to hide his expression. Princess Yushu seemed to have discovered something and asked, "Have you seen anything above this?"

"I...haven't seen it."

"Hey, don't talk about you. In fact, even I have never seen it. When I saw it, I was shocked."

Princess Yushu said: "Your Majesty told me that the paintings on these are all monsters."

"Demon?" Yang Liang said.

Princess Yushu nodded: "Although they are essentially demons, they call themselves immortals. I don't know when these things suddenly appeared in the Dasheng Dynasty. Some of them are stone statues, some are portraits, and some grow directly on believers. body.

As long as you pray to them sincerely, you can obtain the power given by the demon. Different demons give different powers.

However, power does not come out of thin air. If you want to gain power, you must sacrifice something to the demon.

Gradually, people become more and more greedy, and the demon wants more and more, until he becomes a monster.

Do you remember the Thirteen Kings? "

Yang Liang nodded.

"That's what he is."

Yang Liang took a deep breath, and could only stand firm by holding on to the table.

"The princess said so, aren't they very dangerous?"

"Indeed, it is extremely dangerous, so we have to take action as soon as possible."

Princess Yushu said: "I leave this job to you. You select people from the Three Sword Guards and go all the way north. Firstly, they are sent as envoys to the Rong tribe, but the real purpose is to clear out the statues of these monsters.

Your Majesty has given you the Shangfang Sword. You can kill them first and then kill them. If you encounter believers who follow demons, you can kill them. "

Yang Liang didn't come back to his senses for a while. He carefully recalled his experiences along the way. It seemed that this kind of monster had already existed. The Iron Sword Guard he met in Pingzhou before was probably doing such errands for the imperial court.

Now, it's my turn to do this job.

"Your Highness, there is one thing that students don't know. How do I know who is a demon and who is a righteous god?"

"You are confused. Wherever there is a righteous god, they are all demons. Remember, those who worship gods will die."
