Great Swordsman

"Is this the voice of the suzerain?"

Lin Aimin pricked up his ears, confirming that the arrogant voice was indeed Li Mu's. In addition, he also heard a series of mournful howls and begging for mercy, which were the Seven Monsters of the Imperial Academy.

And in this messy voice, Lin Aimin also heard a stubborn and unyielding resolute voice: "Li Mu! 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, please remember, the humiliation you gave me today, I will definitely double it in the future Give it back!!"

Commander Ying? !

This... Lin Aimin suspected that he was hallucinating.

You know, in the latest issue of the Dragon and Tiger Rankings, Ying Wei is among the top ten, and he is a top powerful monk in the world!
However, Li Mu's name disappeared from the list of dragons and tigers inexplicably. There is no comparison, just, just... no harm?
Lin Aimin followed Zhu'er to Li Mu's small courtyard, and saw a bunch of 'radishes' lined up on the ground at the door.

No, those are not radishes, but human heads. Their bodies are buried in the soil, only eight... bald heads are exposed!
Li Mu was cutting their hair with a kitchen knife in his hand!

Seeing this scene, Zhu'er couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Hahaha, Li Mu, what are you doing, you are too bad, hahaha..."

"Deacon Zhu'er, stop laughing and save us!"

"Zhu'er, stop Li Mu quickly!"

When the seven monsters saw Zhu'er, they couldn't wait to ask for help!

In the Hanlin Academy, the seven of them were high-ranking deacons, but now they were planted on the ground like carrots, and their hair was cut!
If this spreads out, how can the majesty of their cadres exist?

"Shut up!" Ying Wei was furious, very disdainful, and then he looked up at Zhu'er with a majestic face: "Zhu'er, why are you still standing there? Don't let me out! "

He was beaten into the ground by Li Mu, and he tried to break free several times, but was slapped by Li Mu all the time, and he almost had a psychological shadow!
"You figured it out now? You haven't told me what Tiangang is!" Li Mu shaved them one by one, then walked up to Ying Wei, squatted down, and put the tip of a kitchen knife into his nostrils and circled.

As a cultivator in the Tiangang Realm, Ying Wei's physical strength was not as strong as Li Mu's, but he couldn't be stabbed with an ordinary kitchen knife.

"Li! Mu!!!" Ying Wei was furious, he glanced down, and saw that his nose hair was scraped off, and his eyes were red with anger!

"Aren't you very arrogant just now? Didn't you want me to roll down the mountain? Didn't you want me to see what Tiangang is?" Li Mu poked one nostril, and then went to poke him the other nostril.

Ying Wei's nostrils were pierced so badly that he wanted to die!
He is a super expert in the three realms of Tiangang, and he was... insulted like this!

After Zhu'er had a good laugh, she took Li Mu's arm, stopped him, and said with a smile: "Li Mu, my mother must be very happy to know that you came, so don't make things difficult for Commander Ying."

"That's Zhu'er begging me, someone else will come, and I'll open your ass!" Li Mu held the kitchen knife in his hand, and moved up and down like a threat.

Ying Wei suddenly felt cold all over the place, especially his buttocks, which started to hurt for no reason!
Li Mu!

You bastard is simply not a son of man!
Ying Wei cursed Li Mu viciously in his heart, but he didn't dare to start provocation again, otherwise... where would the dignity of a man go?

Seeing the two enter the small courtyard, Ying Wei and the others dared to break through the ground.

Afterwards, the eight of them turned their heads fiercely to look at Lin Aimin who was at the side.

Lin Aimin sweated profusely on his forehead, and said, "Commander, Deacon, I, I, I, I..."

"I what me!"

"Say! What did you just see?"

"I remember that your name is Lin Aimin, and you are a disciple of guarding the mountain? Oh, do you want to stay at the mountain gate for the rest of your life?"

The seven monsters of the Hanlin Academy began to threaten Lin Aimin with yin and yang.

"Deacons, I didn't see anything just now! No! What happened just now? I don't know anything." Lin Aimin said tremblingly.

"You're smart!" Ying Wei snorted coldly, and said fiercely, "Remember, if you dare to talk nonsense, be careful with your ass!"

"Yes!" Lin Aimin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

……

Under the gazebo in the courtyard.

Zhu'er sat down with his arms around Li Mu, then circled around him and asked, "Li Mu, where is the baby?"

It's been a long time since I saw that little guy clamoring to eat meat every day, I really miss it!

"The baby is in Nanzhao, and Ladu can't leave." Li Mu thought of the look in the eyes of the baby thinking about the "Gu Garden" of the Nanzhao imperial palace, and was worried about Bai Qi.

"It's a pity that the baby didn't come." Zhu'er sighed, and then her little face tensed up: "Li Mu, this time the empress is in big trouble, you must help the empress!"

Li Mu didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "I don't know the current situation in the court, please tell me first."

Zhu'er hurriedly said: "After your majesty went crazy, the imperial doctors in the palace and the genius doctors in the government and the public said that it could not be cured, and then some ministers in the court said that since your majesty has gone crazy, he can no longer be the king of this country. After the King of Yan ascended the throne, the government and the public were in a turmoil. Some supported the King of Yan, and some supported the King of Shu. They quarreled fiercely, and then many royal families jumped out of the clan mansion. It was lively, but within a day, it was reported that On the news that Concubine Peacock is pregnant, on that day, the government and the public became quiet until the empress came back."

"What about after the empress comes back?" Li Mu asked.

"Your Majesty came back to see His Majesty first, then, then..." Zhu'er glanced at Li Mu, and said via voice transmission: "Then your confidante came and said that she could save Your Majesty."

My confidante?

This imperial capital... oh, it is Ling Shishi who has mastered the wish seal!

Wishing and wishing, it is similar to the great ambition technique.

But to save the emperor... Why is Miss Ling so ignorant!

Li Mu looked at Zhu'er, beckoning her to continue.

Zhu'er continued to transmit the voice: "Your Majesty asked if there would be any sequelae after treating His Majesty. Princess Chu said that she might die. Then, Mrs. Qingyue came."

"Huh? Who is Mrs. Qingyue?" Li Mu asked.

"Ms. Qingyue is the mother of the empress. She had a secret talk with the empress for a while. When Mrs. Qingyue leaves, the empress will be out of her mind." Zhu'er said: "But you don't have to worry about your beauty, the empress asked Princess Chu if she wanted to To save His Majesty, Princess Chu said she didn't want to, so the empress let her go."

It's hard to get over this matter of Hongyan... Li Mu didn't refute, but asked about Mrs. Qingyue.

"I don't know much about Mrs. Qingyue, but this lady looks so strong that I dare not look up at her, it's so scary!" Zhu'er was still terrified: "My mother is better!"

No matter how loud or mischievous she is, the empress will tolerate her.

Li Mu rubbed his chin and pondered: Mrs. Qingyue should represent the Qin family to meet the queen...

Ok?
Qin family?

Li Mu hurriedly asked: "During this time, the major families should have sent people to the Imperial Capital, right?"

Zhu'er nodded repeatedly: "The Kong family, the Meng family, the Mo family, and the Ying family have all sent people here!"

The one who came to the Meng family was Meng Qiuhan, one of the nine beauties. During the great tribute, Li Mu got in touch with her, and she was very nice.

The person who came from the Mo family was Mo Wuwei, the head of the family. Li Mu also came into contact with it when he went to the Mo family to obtain the evil spirit of the earth. He was a bit rough and informal.

As for the Ying family and the Kong family, Ying Xiaori and Confucius Chan came respectively. These two people are rumored to be the winner and the next head of the Kong family. No matter in terms of cultivation or talent, they are peerless geniuses!
"It is said that they all have nine purple qi!" Zhu'er whispered.

Are the real geniuses finally going to make their debut... Li Mu asked with a smile, "Who did they contact after they came to the Imperial Capital?"

Zhu'er shook his head: "When they entered the capital, the empress was still in the Dragon Palace, so we didn't dare to act without authorization. Moreover, they all came with a large number of children, so they were very vigilant. If they were under surveillance, they would be discovered."

Li Mu thought so too, now that everyone's cultivation base has been raised, although the number of Tiangang Realm is limited, there are really as many Earth Fiend Realms as there are dogs. It is really not easy to secretly monitor without being discovered!

"Wait!" Li Mu suddenly remembered something: "Did Ying Wei come with Ying Xiaori?"

Zhu'er nodded, then stared: "You mean, Commander Ying colluded with Ying Xiaori? Is he the Ying family's eyeliner?"

Li Mu resolutely added insult to injury: "I think this possibility is very high! Zhu'er, at this critical moment, we must take him seriously!"

Zhu'er nodded heavily with a sullen face, then tilted her head again, and said, "But Mrs. Qingyue is also from the Ying family."

Ah, this... Li Mu was reminded by Zhu'er that Qin Mengyao and Ying Wei are cousins, that is to say, Qin Mengyao's mother, Mrs. Qingyue, is Ying Wei's aunt!

Zhu'er looked at Li Mu, and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Qingyue won't harm your empress, right?"

Li Muyu said earnestly: "This is not sure, knowing people and faces but not knowing the heart!"

Zhu'er remembered the empress's decadent appearance after chatting with Mrs. Qingyue, she nodded thoughtfully, then she shook her head and said to Li Mu: "Li Mu, what do you think we should do next?"

"First, find a way to convince the minister that the child in the peacock's belly is not the emperor's." Li Mu said: "Second, choose a child surnamed Ji in the clan's mansion to adopt as the crown prince. Third, reward the minister!"

This is a solution that Li Mu, who has watched a lot of Gongdou dramas, can think of in a short time. Although it is a bit rough, it has pointed out the direction for Qin Mengyao!

Otherwise, whether it is to make the child in the peacock's belly a prince, or to let the king of Yan and the king of Shu succeed, it will cause a huge crisis for Qin Mengyao!
"Li Mu, you're so smart!!" Zhu'er looked at Li Mu with glowing eyes, and felt that the world's talents were astonishing, and Li Mu was the only one in the world, and he was a veritable great cleverness!

That's how it's done in TV dramas... Li Mu waved his hand lightly, and said, "It's just a small skill, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."

"Li Mu, just wait, I'll tell your method to the empress, the empress must be very happy to hear that." Zhu'er turned and ran away impatiently.

……

at the same time.

Fengming Hall of the Imperial Palace.

After a brief decadence, Qin Mengyao cheered up again.

Whether it's for the Qin family or for yourself, you can't let the peacock grow up!

She got up and said: "You Lan, please go to the Qiushui Pavilion, the left and right prime ministers!"

"Yes, empress." You Lan breathed a sigh of relief seeing Qin Mengyao recover.

At this time, the left and right prime ministers were waiting outside the Fengming Hall, got summoned, and immediately entered the water pavilion in the autumn lake.

Not long after, Qin Mengyao, who had changed into a white palace attire, arrived against the wind. She had a beautiful face and exquisite facial features, as if a goddess descended to earth, making the autumn lake and water pavilions pale.

"I've seen my lady." The left minister Yao Yan and the right minister Jiang Yuange bowed their hands and saluted.

"Exemption." Qin Mengyao stepped into the pavilion, came to the two of them gracefully, and said: "The two prime ministers came to see me, why are you here?"

"Your Majesty came back from the East China Sea. It's been a long journey. I shouldn't have disturbed you, but your majesty's madness has been going on for nearly a month, so it's really too late!" Yao Yan said in a deep voice, "I also ask your empress to hold a court meeting immediately and elect a new one. Jun!"

The king of a country went crazy, and the mother of a country went to the East China Sea. After a short quarrel, all the officials in the court fell silent. In fact, they secretly connected with each other crazily, just waiting for Qin Mengyao to come back and earn the merit of being a dragon!

"Choose a new monarch?" Although Qin Mengyao knew that he had to face a choice, he didn't expect it to come so soon!
"Your Majesty." Jiang Yuange sighed, "Since your Majesty's insanity broke out, the court officials have been exhausted, the royal family and relatives are ready to move, and the Mongolian Yuan, Xiongnu, and Buddhist armies from the Western Regions are oppressing the situation. It really can't be delayed."

"The affairs of the state are so difficult." Qin Mengyao nodded expressionlessly, and said, "In this case, I will pass on the decree of my palace to hold a court meeting at the time of tomorrow, and all ministers must not delay."

"Minister! Obey the order!" The two hurriedly bowed to each other.

"Go down." Qin Mengyao turned to look at Qiuhu Lake. At this time, the sun was shining brightly, and the sparkling water in the lake dazzled people's eyes.

Yao Yan and Jiang Yuange did not leave, they exchanged glances, and Yao Yan asked, "Mother, the choice of the new monarch is of great importance. Dare I ask you... who do you want?"

Is it the child in the belly of the peacock, the king of Yan, Ji Han, or the king of Chu, Ji Hui?

Or, choose one person from the clan mansion?
Qin Mengyao didn't speak, and remained silent.

Yao Yan and Jiang Yuange didn't dare to urge them, and waited respectfully there.

This wait is half an hour.

At this time, Zhu'er has hurried back from Qingyou Mountain, but when she saw that the queen was meeting with the left and right prime ministers, she naturally didn't dare to disturb her, so she stood by the lake with You Lan and Leng Mei and waited.

In Qiushui Pavilion.

Seeing that the two of them did not leave, Qin Mengyao had no choice but to open her mouth and said, "To tell you the truth, my lords, this palace... is like a peacock, already pregnant with His Majesty's flesh and blood."

"What?!" Yao Yan and Jiang Yuange's expressions changed drastically.

"Why, are the two prime ministers suspicious of me?" Qin Mengru turned around slowly, her phoenix eyes twinkling with stars, awe-inspiring and inviolable.

"I...don't dare." The two hurriedly clasped their hands together.

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Yao Yan said, "I just... Your Majesty left the palace for a month, and this pregnancy..."

"I'm two months pregnant." Qin Mengyao said expressionlessly, "I'm tired, the two prime ministers, go down."

"Chen...resign." Yao Yan sighed, turned and left.

"The minister will leave." Jiang Yuange's expression was complicated.

As soon as the two left, Zhu'er immediately ran into the pavilion along the winding water corridor, and said, "Your Majesty, Li Mu is here. I just went to see him. He knows about His Majesty's madness and is very concerned about your Majesty. Tell your empress how to get through this crisis!"

Qin Mengyao was sitting on the imperial bench, her delicate figure was like a white rose, and she just said: "Zhu'er, the morning meeting will be held tomorrow, remember to ask Li Mu to come too, as... the deacon of the Imperial Academy."

"Oh oh, I know my lady." Zhu'er nodded incessantly, then remembered Li Mu's method, and said it all in one breath.

After listening, Qin Mengyao nodded lightly: "It's indeed the best policy, but it's a pity..."

It's a pity that there is a Qin family behind her.

Moreover, it is too late!
