Movie World Big Red Envelope

Chapter 488
It was already late at night, and the entire capital city seemed to be covered with a layer of black dust. Thousands of households were already asleep, but the lamps in Taichangqing's mansion were not extinguished.

At this time, Li Xiao was calm and concentrated, sitting cross-legged on a futon, and beside him, a dharma sword engraved with nine stars was lying quietly on the ground in front of him, as if is waiting to be called.

He took a deep breath, and the sea of ​​qi in the Tanzhong acupoint was spinning like a vortex, the qi was pulled, and the internal force was bulging, and a bar of vitality burst out from his protruding palm. It was roughly as thick as an arm, tough and solid, with flickering outlines of milky white lines.

This vitality strip danced like a living thing, and the jumping end of Yuan Qi was like a nimble snake, sticking to the hilt of the sword, slithering upwards, and collapsing tightly with the vitality thread connected to Li Xiao's palm. of.

Li Xiao raised his hand lightly, and the Nine Stars Sword immediately left the ground, and accompanied by the slight tremor of the sword body, there was a buzzing sound.

Li Xiao stretched his palms, and echoed each other, the nine-star magic sword was also flying up and down in the air, it seemed flexible and fast, flying like a dragon, and there was the sound of the magic sword chichi chopping and whistling , The room also suddenly flashed a piece of gorgeous sword shadow, as the speed increased, the magic sword moved left and right in the air, just like a flying needle threading, even the flame of the lamp on the table far away It keeps beating, flickering and flickering.

I saw Li Xiao raised his palm, and then sent it forward violently. The vitality bar took the dharma sword and shot towards a vertical piece of wood in front of him, although because of the length of the vitality bar, the sword did not touch the wood piece.

But the force that came out of the sword directly split the piece of wood in half, and the sharp aftermath also left a conspicuous crack and depression on the wall!
"Although this technique of controlling the sword is called Yujian, the real test is the control of vitality. As long as the manipulation of vitality is perfect, then this technique of controlling the sword can have great power, Baili Fei Sword, hurting people from afar!"

Li Xiao gently pulled the vitality bar, and the magic sword swung around the room again, and beads of sweat gradually oozed from his forehead, dripping down toward the ground along his cheeks and chin. The sword, shuttling back and forth in the house, is like a silver thread, treacherous and agile!

I don't know how long this kind of sword practice lasted. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. After a while, Wu San ran to knock on the door and told Li Xiao that someone was visiting late at night.

"Who is the person who came?" With a light tug of his wrist, Li Xiao took back the dharma sword that was flying in the room, and stored it in the system space again with a flash of thought.

On the first day I came to the capital, someone came to the door late at night, who could it be?
"The person who came to the door didn't reveal his identity, he just said that you will know it when you see it." Wu San replied in a low voice.

Hearing this, Li Xiao couldn't help but frowned slightly, stood up from the futon, followed Wu San, walked across the courtyard, and came to the gate.

Pushing open the door, I saw seven or eight guards with sharp swords in the waist and hips outside the mansion, and the guards with alert eyes, and the leader was dressed in a black and loose robe, and his whole face was hidden by the hood of the robe. In it, it was as if he was hiding in the dark night, making his face unclear.

Li Xiao looked the visitor up and down, and said in doubt, "I don't know who you are, so what's the matter with finding Li?"

After a long while, the man in black slowly took off his hat. When Li Xiao saw the face of the visitor clearly, he couldn't help being stunned.

……

……

It turned out that the person who came was none other than the current emperor.

Welcoming the emperor into the lobby of the mansion, and ordering someone to serve tea, Li Xiao greeted the emperor to sit down, while the imperial guards who followed the emperor were guarding the courtyard with a knife, looking back and forth vigilantly.

"I don't know that His Majesty is here, but I am really disappointed." Li Xiao looked at the emperor and said with a bow.

However, the emperor waved his hands again and again, smiled slightly, and said with utmost humility: "Haha, no, it's my visit late at night, which disturbed Li Aiqing, and I hope Master Li will not take offense."

Li Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help muttering in his heart.The person in front of me, no matter how he is emptied, is at least the monarch of a country. He is the son of the emperor and a member of the royal family. Besides, the two of them had a rivalry in the court today, but why? I don't see, why the other party's words are so humble, and this emperor is not staying in the palace, so he actually visits the door late at night, which is really unbelievable.

"Look at the simple and elegant layout of Li Aiqing's mansion. It's rare for an official in the court to have such a humble heart." After looking around the hall, the emperor absently nodded in praise.

"Although I'm not a sage or sage, I still yearn for a peaceful and far-reaching artistic conception." After a pause, Li Xiao asked straight to the point: "I just don't know what your Majesty's visit to the humble house is about late at night? I'm afraid it's not as simple as visiting the humble house." .”

Li Xiao believed that the emperor's visit at such a late hour would definitely not be as simple as simply visiting his residence, there must be something hidden in it!
However, after the emperor pondered for a moment, he let out a long sigh, and said in a dejected tone: "Hey, Li Aiqing must have seen my cowardly and incompetent appearance in the court today. What you said is exactly, even If a big eunuch dares to show his teeth and claws, and act presumptuously in the court, as the king of a country, what face do I have?"

After he finished speaking, he laughed wryly at himself again, looking at his appearance, it seemed that he was pouring out the depression that had been buried in his heart for a long time.

After listening to the other party's words, Li Xiao also nodded irrefutably. Just this morning, when he saw the eunuch Yang Lin in the Hall of Supreme Harmony with a defiant and domineering demeanor, it was as if the eunuch had It is the supreme existence, which is undoubtedly extremely ironic.

……

……

And looking at the emperor in front of him, there seemed to be deep sorrow and exhaustion in his eyes, and then he saw that the emperor's eyes dimmed a bit, his tone was deep, looking back on the past, his whole person seemed to be a little older : "I still remember more than ten years ago, when I was still young, my father got a strange disease. I visited all kinds of famous doctors but couldn't cure it. Later, Purdue Cihang seemed to descend from the sky. So he cured the father's illness, as if relying on his profound Buddhist blessings, he can bring the dead back to life."

"Afterwards, my father recruited Pudu Cihang into the palace, and was very grateful to him. Pudu Cihang also won the favor and admiration of my father, and successfully ascended to the position of protector of the country. Even the palace For all the statutes and legal affairs, the emperor also asks for his opinion."

"Many civil and military ministers are also attached to him. In this way, Pudu Cihang's power in the palace is also growing, to the point where he can influence the power in the court. Although I succeeded from my father The throne, but the power has already fallen, and Pudu Cihang has almost covered the sky with one hand, Li Aiqing, what do you think is the difference between me and the string puppet in the shadow puppetry?"

Li Xiao also sighed slightly, looking at the emperor with a sympathetic expression, it seems that the emperor is not as confused as A Dou, at least he understands the situation he is facing.

The emperor's every move now is probably under the surveillance of Pudu Cihang, so that he has to be on guard everywhere, otherwise he won't visit the door in the middle of the night.

However, looking at him, it seems that he is only afraid of Pudu Cihang's position in the court, and does not know that the other party is a great demon.

As the saying goes, the Tao is one foot tall and the devil is ten feet tall. Purdue Cihang is a demon, and his demon skills are even more unpredictable. In addition, he always claims to be a virtuous monk, preaching the universal salvation of all living beings, compassion The cherished image of gods and Buddhas has attracted the attachment of many ministers, and the power in the court has also grown, so that it has developed to such a degree that it is embarrassing.

The emperor sighed, and continued: "Of course, I also know that the case of treason written in blood is nothing at all, fabricated by treacherous ministers, but, in order to be wise and protect myself, I can only make a compromise."

Li Xiao said meaningfully: "I can understand your Majesty's difficulties, but if the blood book treason case is confirmed, it will be succeeded by the treacherous minister, and this is a filthy court, so there are even fewer loyal people who serve the country. .”

Speaking of this, the emperor's eyes suddenly lit up: "That's why I turned to Li Aiqing for help... Li Aiqing is not only a descendant of a famous family, but also has outstanding abilities, and she also has magical powers that can call wind and rain, which is amazing. The most important thing is , Judging from what happened in the court today, I am even more sure that you are a loyal person who speaks out of justice, so I hope that Li Aiqing can step forward at the critical moment, go back to the source, so as to break this court. I don't know what Li Aiqing thinks about the sluggish air above."

After finishing speaking, the emperor stood up from the seat, looked at Li Xiao expectantly, and waited for his answer.

When Li Xiao heard this, he immediately understood.

It turned out that the emperor had long been dissatisfied with Purdue Cihang's interference in the court, but because of Purdue Cihang's coercion, he had always endured the humiliation, compromised, and waited for the opportunity.

But at this time, his own appearance made him the target of the emperor's wooing. He wanted to woo himself so that he could stand up to Pudu Cihang and help him regain power.

Well……

My mission is to eradicate demons and pacify treacherous evils, so it is not a bad idea to join hands with the emperor.

Feeling the emperor's scorching eyes, Li Xiao's thoughts changed. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Punishing treacherous ministers and destroying the chaotic party is the duty. Since His Majesty attaches so much importance to it, I should do my best. It's just..." Li Xiao paused, his eyes flickered with cunning, and he said with deep meaning: "It's just that I just entered the capital, my foundation is not stable, and my qualifications are shallow. I'm afraid I can't take on this important task."

He naturally understands what the emperor means, but he has just entered the capital, and he is still a third-rank Taichang Qing. Looking at the entire court, this level of official position is not low, but compared with the protector of the country, it is still not enough. .

"It's okay, Li Aiqing's ability is extraordinary, and it's obvious to all. What's missing is nothing more than an official title. I can designate you as the Heavenly Master of Protecting the Country. Although I have been dismissed in the court, such a canonization is still possible." After learning about Li Xiao's worries, the emperor said without hesitation, as if he had already made a decision.

Purdue Cihang is the protector of the country in the imperial court, and the emperor wants to confer himself a guardian of the country, a master of heaven, a master of heaven, the meaning of which is naturally clear at a glance!

"Okay, since His Majesty is so decisive, it is natural for me to be obliged to do so." At this time, Li Xiao no longer shirked, and the corners of his mouth raised a slight arc, and he directly agreed. After all, with the status of the protector of the country, It can also be more conducive to his actions.

"Great, from tomorrow onwards, you will be the imperial court's protector of the country. I believe that with the help of the protector of the country, there is hope for the restoration of the country and the country!" , for fear that Li Xiao would regret it the next moment.

The emperor laughed happily, his mood suddenly improved, and the previous gloomy expression was swept away.

"In order to avoid Pudu Cihang's suspicion, please keep your majesty quiet so as not to startle the snake." Li Xiao thought for a while, and told the emperor.

Just being a celestial master is not enough, Li Xiao must also improve his cultivation as soon as possible, recruit troops, and expand his strength.

"Okay, everything is according to what the celestial master said." The emperor nodded and replied.

In the following time, the two discussed how to deal with Purdue Cihang before the emperor left and returned to the palace under the escort of a group of imperial guards.
