Chapter 173
I really can't stand Chu Qianchen's suspicious eyes anymore, so Mu Shaoyi plans to tell the truth: "I was originally a priest of the Xuanwu Empire, and I am well versed in divination. My divination about the future of the Xuanwu Empire was tampered with by a villain. The Emperor Xuanwu was furious and ordered someone to kill me. I managed to escape from death. If the two of you can help me meet the emperor and understand everything, I would appreciate it. You must do your best to repay it.”

"We only want the whereabouts of the Haotian Tower, what does this have to do with your return to the Xuanwu Palace?" Yu Yaoluo asked.

Chu Qianchen pondered for a while: "The necessities of divination are all available on the altar above the Xuanwu Temple. If he can really return to the Xuanwu Palace, maybe he can really divination the location of the Haotian Tower."

Speaking of this, Chu Qianchen looked at Mu Shaoyi, and suddenly smiled: "Am I right? Priest Xuanwu, oh, no, it should be Li Wang—Murong Shaoyi?"

Although Murong Shaoyi has not used the title of King Li for many years, but seeing that his identity has been identified, he no longer pretends to be stupid, and generously admitted: "I have heard that Shenwu Jin Wang is amazing, but I didn't expect it to be only a few years. Shaoyi really admires me for being able to recognize me when I met once at the alliance meeting."

"This king is the one who admires me, right? I didn't expect you to recognize me after I changed my appearance. You have low skills but are proficient in divination. I am afraid that you have already figured out that the person you met was me, and then you will recognize me." The reason why you asked me for help so reassuringly is because you know that this king can help you, right?" Chu Qianchen raised the corners of his lips, and his eyes were full of ambiguous smiles.

Yu Yaoluo couldn't help but black line again, why do these two people still know each other?Then Mu Shaoyi just now, isn't Murong Shaoyi actually lying?

"Are you lying to us just now?" Yu Yaoluo frowned, looking at Murong Shaoyi with distrust.

"No, no, the girl misunderstood, although I am the prince, but I have been walking in the Xuanwu Palace as a priest, and the palace people always call me Lord Priest, not His Highness Li Wang. "Murong Shaoyi quickly explained.

You don’t want to be a good prince, and you ran to be a priest. Now that you hold the divine power, the monarchy will naturally not tolerate you. Yu Yaoluo sighed helplessly: "Maybe Emperor Xuanwu deliberately misunderstood you and took this opportunity to kill you." Silently, to avoid future troubles forever, you still have to enter the palace to explain to him... you really believe that he was just blinded by a traitor?"

Murong Shaoyi was silent for a while: "I believe in elder brother, at least let me see him again and explain the matter clearly in person, otherwise I won't believe it at all, it is elder brother who wants to kill me!"

This is a typical example of not crying without seeing the coffin.Yu Yaoluo shook her head.

"Master, do we really want to help him?" Yu Yaoluo confirmed again.

"Help, of course I want to help." Chu Qianchen looked Murong Shaoyi up and down, "He studied under Master Ling Xu, and in the realm, besides Master Ling Xu, he is probably the only one who can predict the whereabouts of Haotian Tower gone."

It's a secret that only the royal family knows... Yu Yaoluo curled her lips, and suddenly realized that she seemed to have overlooked a detail: "Wait a minute, you mean, Master Lingxu used to be his master?"

"Indeed. Shaoyi was fortunate enough to be favored by others and was accepted as a disciple. He didn't leave the mountain until five years ago and returned to Xuanwu." Murong Shaoyi said.

Yu Yaoluo couldn't help but take another look at him, to win Master Lingxu's favor, he is definitely not an ordinary character, is he with strange bones, or is he extraordinary?

Xuanwu Palace

"What, fell off the cliff, and there are no bones left?" Shenwu Emperor Murong Changgong was shocked when he heard the words, and jumped up.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. The last general indeed saw the priest fall off the cliff, and sent people to search for it, but... nothing was found." Kneeling below, the general in uniform clasped his hands and said.

Murong Changgong closed his eyes, waved his hands and said, "Forget it, you all go down!"

When he was the only one left in the hall, Murong Changgong opened his eyes, his eyes were full of sadness.

Shaoyi, are you really dead?

They didn't find your body, so I will never know whether the prediction result is really your intention...

No, they didn't find your body, maybe you are still alive, and one day you will come back and tell me that you have always been loyal to me and have absolutely no intention of instigating rebellion.

No, no, you... You, you probably won't, dare not, and don't want to come back to see me, right?

That's all, Shaoyi, don't come back to the Xuanwu Palace, I'm afraid I'll kill you by mistake, and then... regret it for the rest of my life!
In the huge Xuanwu Palace, a man in a bright yellow imperial robe prostrated himself on the desk, a tear fell silently from the corner of his eye.

After the general exited the hall, he was stopped by a minister adorned with pearls, gold and jade around his waist, and a high crown: "How is your majesty?"

"Reporting to Otsuka Zai, the emperor seems to be a little confused about his sorrows and joys, and the general is worried..."

Luo Qingjue raised her hand to stop his next words: "Continue to search for the trace of King Li, and report immediately if there is any news."

"The last general takes orders." The general bowed his hands towards him and bowed his head.

If no body was found, it meant that King Li might still be alive. No matter whether he went to heaven or earth, he would search for Murong Changgong. As long as Murong Changgong was alive, he would not be able to force the palace to succeed!

Luo Qing shook her sleeves and left the Xuanwu Palace with a sneer.

The three of them set off for Licheng through the Xuanwu official road. Murong Shaoyi's original fief is here, and now it is best to return to his fief first, so that the old department can be mobilized to defend him.

Because Murong Shaoyi was injured, he was not suitable for riding a horse, so they hired a carriage.

He opened the curtain of the carriage and said: "Look, along the way, hunger and death were everywhere. Xuanwu was plagued by locusts, so the people suffered unspeakably. According to the results of divination, I originally advised to open warehouses to release grain, rectify the administration of officials, and eliminate corrupt officials. Officer, but after the eldest brother saw the remonstrance, he was very frightened and angry, and ordered to kill me. Fortunately, there are people in the palace who sincerely protect the lord, so they came to inform in advance, otherwise, I would have already..."

Chu Qianchen can also figure out the general situation, and he reminded him: "There are only two possibilities now, either Emperor Xuanwu deliberately misunderstood, or you were framed by traitors, if it's the latter, it's okay, brothers and sisters Seeing that there is still some leeway, if it is the former possibility...you have to think about it, if you go to see him, it is equivalent to sending yourself to death."

Seeing Murong Shaoyi's silence, Yu Yaoluo couldn't help but want to ask clearly: "The advice book should have been transferred, do you know what the content on it has become?"

Based on this, it might be possible to judge the seriousness of the matter and see if it has really reached a situation where there is no way to recover, and the dilemma is to meet and forgive each other.

Murong Shaoyi smiled wryly. Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, he could probably guess it: "Probably..."
