Astral Apostle

The latest website: Zhou Jing returned to Beijing from the north. Except for an interception in the middle, the rest of the time was smooth sailing without any turbulence.

When he returned to the capital, he immediately alerted the court and the opposition, and was immediately summoned by the emperor to the palace.

The palace, the imperial study.

Zhou Jing followed the servant into the room and greeted the emperor who was writing calligraphy.

"Pindao see the saint."

"The real person can be counted back, and it seems that the clearance has been reduced a lot."

The emperor hurriedly put down his pen, looked up and down, and spoke in a friendly tone.

He could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Immortal Yufeng was unscathed, with all limbs intact, but also found that the other party's cheeks seemed to have lost some weight, and his face was a little unhealthy pale.

"With His Majesty's concern, the poor way can save the day, but it's a pity that the tree is difficult to support and unable to return to the sky."

Zhou Jing sighed deliberately.

The emperor reassured and comforted: "The real person does not need to belittle yourself. I have heard of the magical powers you have displayed on the front line. You are not in this battle, it is all because of Lu Longchuan's lack of control."

Zhou Jing shook his head: "If it wasn't for the impoverished Daoist being assassinated by someone, his body was poisoned, and it was difficult for him to use his supernatural powers, then he wouldn't let that Chen Feng act madly and defeat Lu to lead the army."

The emperor's eyes flashed, not surprised.

He had already received a report from a secret agent and learned some inside information about the defeat, including the fact that someone had poisoned Master Yufeng. It's just that most of these news are learned from the collapsed soldiers, and it is difficult to confirm the authenticity and whether there is an exaggeration.

He summoned Zhou Jing into the palace immediately, in addition to showing great importance, he also wanted to ask first-hand information from the witnesses.

The emperor knew something in his heart, but he still put on a look of surprise and asked, "Who killed the immortal master? What's the inside story?"

"Someone bought the soldiers of Tianwangzhai and poisoned my food..."

Zhou Jing explained the process of the incident and made it clear that he was here to complain.

Although he wants to create a dusty image, he can be targeted repeatedly, but he does not have any temperament.

He had already decided that when he came back this time, he would file a complaint, express his dissatisfaction, and let the ministers know,

He is not a "true expert outside the world" who is not a saint but is stupid and doesn't know how to use it.

"Is the real person completely detoxified now?" The emperor's tone was concerned.

Zhou Jing nodded:

"Pin Dao is suppressed by mana, and then supplemented by detoxification pills, to finally get rid of the toxin. It's just that the poison is fierce, although the poor Dao has recovered, it is like a serious illness.

"It's fine if nothing happens to the real person. I will send the imperial chef to cook a tonic meal every day to help the real person recover quickly."

After the emperor showed concern, he said solemnly:

"This matter, the widow will not tolerate it, and will find out who poisoned it, and give justice to the real person."

Zhou Jing interjected:

"About the people behind the scenes, Pindao has some eyebrows. On the way back, Pindao met a group of masked men and killed them. After subduing the assassins, he asked that they were all followers of Yuding Sect. Someone put the blame on it or it is true, and simply brought these assassins back to Beijing to serve as witnesses."

He doesn't play tricks at all, he doesn't go round and round, he just shows his cards and jumps in the face.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed tightly: "Is this true?"

"There is no falsehood in the poor way."

boom!

The emperor slapped the table angrily, knocking the pen holder off.

"What a bunch of scoundrels and thieves, how dare they act so recklessly! You can rest assured, I will order these assassins to be sent to the Heavenly Prison, sent to Dali Temple for interrogation, and we will find out."

He saw that Zhou Jing was going to invite a teacher to ask for guilt, so he showed such an attitude to appease the other party, but he was really angry in his heart.

When Ning Zhongjun went to the front line to kill the real Yufeng, the emperor knew that the Yuding Sect was targeting.

However, the emperor is generally happy to see the open and secret battles between the courtiers. Otherwise, how can he sit on the high platform as a referee.

Yu Ding Sect's thoughts at that time could not be concealed from his eyes, but he had the guarantee of Zhou Jing's survival, and he allowed this matter after thinking about it. Later, letting Master Yufeng be promoted in Sitian Supervisor was a knock on Jade Ding Sect.

However, the emperor did not expect that the Yuding Sect ignored the warnings and dared to do such an outrageous act. This really annoyed him.

For this little self-interest, he had to kill the real Yufeng regardless of the overall situation of the bandit suppression, which indirectly led to the failure of this expedition.

It seems that the widow has been too indulgent to Yuding Sect over the years...

This thought flashed through the emperor's mind.

At this time, Zhou Jing said with a sullen face, deliberately said: "Pindao asks himself that he has not made enemies in the court, so I don't know if I just want to get rid of me or have ulterior motives."

He didn't say too much, and he stopped at the point, but the subtext was also expressed - the mastermind behind the scenes wanted to kill me, maybe he wanted to prevent me from nourishing my body and prolonging my life for Your Majesty, with bad intentions.

The emperor naturally understood, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Of course he understood that Zhou Jing was using the topic to play, but these words still hit his sensitive point, and he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

After a wave of fierce complaints, Zhou Jing did not continue to hold back, but instead talked about other details of the war.

After listening for a while, the emperor couldn't help but ask: "Shenzhen, what do you think of this person when you fought against Chen Feng this time?"

Zhou Jing paused, shook his head and said:

"Ning Zhongjun said that Chen Feng was an evil dragon, which is really absurd. From a poor Taoist point of view, this Chen Feng is a mortal body, but he is gifted with extraordinary talents. That's how you have the courage to be inappropriate."

When the emperor heard this, he was a little worried: "Wu Gong practiced to the realm of transformation, can it really reach this level?"

In his impression, martial arts is a crude skill that can fight dozens of people alone at most, and his skills will decline with age. It is impossible to have this level of strength against thousands of troops.

Zhou Jing paused and said: "Pin Dao is not very clear, but since Chen Feng can surpass the vast majority of warriors in the world, he must have his own uniqueness. With the magical powers granted by immortals, Pin Dao can stand against him in court. It’s not easy, and I don’t know if there are people in this world who can match it.”

The emperor's face changed and he was silent.

After a while, he opened his mouth and said slowly:

"Lu Longchuan was defeated, but Chen Feng can't ignore it. The imperial court has decided to send troops to conquer. Pang Shumi named you to go out to contain Chen Feng. I don't know what the real person thinks?"

After this battle, Yufeng Zhenren has proved his combat effectiveness, which is enough to match Chen Feng, so the emperor is not as worried as last time.

And this time, the imperial court personally sent troops. He was concerned about Chen Feng's bravery, for fear that the imperial army would follow in the footsteps, so he couldn't help thinking of letting the real man go on the expedition.

After all, at present, only the real Yufeng has the record of beating Chen Feng, and he has to continue to rely on it.

Zhou Jing was stunned for a moment, then pretended to be calm and said: "Pin Dao's poisoning this time is detrimental to Dao's conduct. He should have recuperated for a year and a half, but His Majesty has ordered, and Pin Dao will naturally obey."

This trip showed combat effectiveness, and was regarded by the imperial court as an important weapon against Chen Feng, and he would send himself to battle in the future. This was within Zhou Jing's expectations, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

He had just returned, and suddenly he wanted to go out again. He was not very happy, but he still stated that as long as the emperor sent him to go out, he would not disobey.

After all, the emperor took the initiative to insert enemy traitors into the army, how could he mind.

But the emperor hesitated, shook his head and said: "It's the widow who is anxious, the real person should recuperate well, let's discuss this matter."

After a pause, he slowed down and said:

"You have made great achievements, and I will reward you for your merits. Regarding the assassin's matter, I will also have someone to investigate carefully. The real person should go back to rest first."

"Thank you for going to Ron."

Zhou Jing saluted politely and calculated in his heart.

He was not sure how the emperor would punish the Jade Tripod Sect, but remembering that the emperor's behavior of building the View of the Son of Heaven needed the theoretical support of the Jade Tripod Sect, so there is a high probability that the punishment would be reserved and would not directly kill Ning Zhongjun and the others.

But it doesn't matter, it's just an easy move to complain by yourself, and Chen Feng is still needed to counterattack.

Violent solution is the most direct way. No matter how good the Yuding Sect is in the DPRK and China, let's go straight to pull out the mountain gate for you, and build it again and again in the future.

Chen Feng also has reasons... You, the headmaster of the Yuding Sect, openly declared that your father is an evil dragon, and slandered me like this, making you a famous teacher, right?

...

Inside the Sitian prison.

Ning Zhongjun's face sinks like water, Yin Nan's face is panic.

"That Ling Fengzi actually survived, this is not good... Headmaster, how should we act?"

Yin Nan's tone was anxious.

Ning Zhongjun did not answer, his face became more and more gloomy, and he was secretly annoyed that his subordinates were not doing well.

Even after a few killing moves, he failed to kill this Lingfengzi, and even let him come back with information. This is bad news for Yuding Sect.

Ning Zhongjun didn't know what to do at this time.

At the feet of the emperor, he did not dare to continue to act out of line.

Even if he regretted sending someone to assassinate Ling Fengzi now, he was only an afterthought when he realized that the matter was not done.

If he did it again, Ning Zhongjun would still try his best to get rid of this rival.

"I don't know how much Ling Fengzi knows..."

Ning Zhongjun couldn't help but feel regret, fear, anxiety and other emotions, all of which stemmed from uncertainty whether Lingfengzi knew about the mastermind behind the scenes, and how much information this person would reveal to the emperor.

But even if he was worried, he could only wait for the result.

At this moment, the subordinates announced that a palace servant had arrived and brought the emperor's decree.

Ning Zhongjun and Yin Nan hurried to meet them, brought a cadre down, and went to the gate of Sitianjian to greet them.

This servant old god was looking at the two of them, and said with a smile:

"The sage has a decree, the Sitian Supervisor has the responsibility of observing the weather, and the heavy responsibility is on his shoulders. Ning Jianzheng, Your Majesty thinks that you are busy with your work, and you will not have to go to court every day in the future. Hajj."

The voice fell, and everyone present breathed for a while, with a look of shock on their faces.

In fact, there was no need for Sitianjian to go to the court every day. Because of the emperor's favor, Ning Zhongjun has always been qualified for the daily hajj.

Now that the emperor took back his power and sent it back to Master Yufeng, the signal could not have been more obvious.

It is a sign of falling out of favor!

Ning Zhongjun's eyes darkened, he gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for being sympathetic!"

...

On the other side, Lu Longchuan and his party walked into the city gate, all of them in the dust.

"This time back to Beijing, I don't know what the situation is..."

Lu Longchuan's face was gloomy and his interest was waning.

Ever since he was betrayed by the people and separated from his family, and after being put down by Chen Feng, he has always looked like this depressed, with only Sun Rong and more than a dozen old brothers from the hard-core Zhaoan faction left beside him.

Because there were too many defeated soldiers in Tianwangzhai, not all of them were captured, so Lu Longchuan and others slowly gathered some of the defeated soldiers on the road, and re-raised a team of three to five thousand people. They are the only remaining soldiers and horses. The Beijing suburbs camp is on standby.

Compared with the peak, the scale has undoubtedly shrunk significantly, and even some slightly larger hills can't compare. Where can there be the scenery of the Northland before.

Whenever he thinks of Chen Feng prying away a group of leaders, leaving only two or three big cats and puppies left in Tianwangzhai's foundation, Lu Longchuan will feel sad and disheartened.

Sun Rong sighed and said slowly: "I'm waiting for the imperial court to suppress the bandits, and I have spent all my family's business. Most of the imperial court still has to deal with our sins. Alas, I just hope that Your Majesty will open up and give us a chance to make a contribution to the crime. After the soldiers and horses, most of us are abandoned sons at the Qin Prime Minister's place. Fortunately, I heard that the real person is fine and has returned to Beijing. I should go to cling to the real person, or I can leave a retreat."

They had no choice but to bite the bullet and return to the capital. As an example of being recruited, if they fell into trouble again, there was only one dead end, and although the defeat was guilty, there was always a chance for a turnaround.

From Sun Rong's point of view, if he loses his wealth, he becomes a toothless tiger... but it is not a way out.

If the real person is willing to say a few good words in front of the emperor, it will be more stable.

Sun Rong knew very well that although he was defeated in this battle, Yufeng Zhenren had no faults, and his supernatural powers were so shocking that he would become an important figure enshrined in the imperial court in the future.

And everyone fought side by side this time, at least a little bit of camaraderie, they might as well hug the real person's thigh and change a backer for themselves in the court.

Anyway, everyone can only go to the black on the road of the court eagle, so it is better to be a running dog under the real people.

With the temperament of real people, everyone has friendship, so the chance of accepting them is not low.

only……

Sun Rong looked at Lu Longchuan's sullen, corpse-like appearance, and a look of worry flashed in his eyes.

After going through a series of blows and being completely compared by Chen Feng, he is not sure if his boss can still cheer up.

If not... then don't blame my brother for jumping off the boat.

Sun Rong's eyes flashed slightly.

He has always supported Zhao'an, but his intention is very simple. His goal is to become an official.

Sun Rong felt that Lu Longchuan had lost the foundation of Tianwangzhai and continued to work, which would not help him much in his career.

Although he was recruited, he had the imprint of Tianwangzhai on his body, but he did not have to be limited to this identity all the time, and he had been following the boss of the past.

Countless Green Forest seniors who have successfully recruited in the past have already used their examples to illustrate that as long as they find the backer and Bole in the courtroom, they can jump out of this identity and make a fortune.

Sun Rong felt that the same was true for himself, and he might not be able to find another way out, get rid of the mess of Lulongchuan and Tianwangzhai, and change the development path in the court.

And Yufeng Zhenren, in his opinion, is a suitable object, and it is also one of the few choices at present.
