Li Chuan was a little moved after hearing this.

If we could figure out what happened to the half-demon woman, then most of the mystery of the White Walkers might be solved. But... Li Chuan said: "If you want to borrow it, you have to ask the leader Wang, right?"

Wen Guying said: "Master Wang, I don't think he will object."

"I want to think about it again." Li Chuan felt that a lot of information was mixed together in his mind, making him afraid to act rashly.

Wen Guying also agreed and said: "You need to think more about it. Anyway, I neither agreed nor explicitly rejected it in front of the empress."

After the two of them summed it up, Li Chuan suddenly felt hungry again. It was getting late at this time, and everyone in the kitchen was resting, so they ran out and had a bowl of fried rice in the night market. After eating, Li Chuan finally felt calm and slept until dawn.

He thought hard for several days. The empress's recent actions seemed to be arranging her affairs, but Li Chuan was still a little worried about what she would do after seeing the half-demon woman.

After all, he was a ruthless man who could kill ancient monsters and his own children.

Unable to think of it, Li Chuan stopped thinking about it for the time being. After that, his life returned to normal. In the morning, he read case files with Zhu Qingyun in the calculation room. In the afternoon, he sometimes studied the Classic of Patterns, and sometimes went to train at the foot of Xuanyan Mountain. Occasionally, he was dragged by Bo Yiliang to the Monster Hunting Department to deal with all kinds of strange things. .

After spending time with Bo Yiliang for a long time, Li Chuan realized this person's nature - he looked very serious, but he would always make some unexpected moves. Most of these moves had miraculous effects, while a few made people laugh or cry.

After hearing this, Li Chuan asked the empress about borrowing the Yuanhuo Mirror.

He tidied up the calculation room a little, and not long after, he saw Chang Xiao walking in. He said: "Mr. Chang? Where did you come from?"

After pondering for a while, Gong Wuguang said: "Your Majesty is very thoughtful, and I rarely guess what she is thinking. If you feel it is inappropriate, it is better not to borrow it."

"Why did it break into pieces like this? What did you encounter at the Shenxia Temple?" Chang Xiao asked.

Li Chuan was very grateful and finally made up his mind.

After finishing speaking, Chang Xiao saw the sword placed in front of the table. He hesitated and asked, "Is this the sword of Master Wen?"

He said: "When I mentioned you to His Majesty, I only said that you and my good friend Mingheng are from the same heritage, so I wanted to help. I didn't mention the rest."

Li Chuan said: "Yes."

Chang Xiao said: "I left the Sishen Palace a month and a half ago. I took a fairy boat to Feiyang County. After that, I traveled all the way and finally arrived in the capital yesterday. The Sanyi Hutong I went to first, Gong Er told me , you are in Qintian Prison, I will come over."

"I almost didn't come back." Li Chuan picked out some of the things he could say to Chang Xiao in the Shenxia Temple.

So he no longer cares about what happened before, but will refuse some things that seem unreliable.

During this period, Gong Wuguang came to see him once. Li Chuan showed him the repaired Yuanhuo Mirror. Gong Wuguang looked at it and said, "The "Classic of Patterns" is really amazing. I feel that the entire mirror has been tempered again. Tianyu It’s worth borrowing the Abyss Fire Mirror this time.”

After lunch that day, when he was calculating the room and spelling out the sword, a yamen servant came in and said that a man named Chang Xiao was looking for him. Li Chuan was very happy and asked people to bring Chang Xiao in quickly.

Chang Xiao was a little scared after hearing this. He said: "When I passed Qinshuitan before, I saw the Shenxia Temple from a distance. Fortunately, I didn't enter it at that time."

"Indeed." Li Chuan thought of the butterfly spirit in Chang Xiao's body before, and was really not sure what would happen if he went there.

Then Chang Xiao also told Li Chuan what he saw along the way. He said: "I originally planned to go back to Zhuangzi to get some things, rest for a few days and then continue traveling. But my father left me a message, asking me to Go see him immediately after returning to Beijing." "What does the general want from you?" Li Chuan asked.

Chang Xiao replied: "Father told me that His Majesty intends to clean up all the big demons in Dajiang Dynasty within one or two years. So he selected some people from the Yunshan Army and gave them to Qin Tianjian for training. He said, I used to be the commander of the Yunshan Army, and now that I have recovered, would I be willing to take these people with me to cooperate with the training at Qintian Prison."

Li Chuan heard something else in Chang Xiao's words. He asked, "How did you answer? And has His Majesty really decided to destroy the demon?"

Chang Xiao said: "I agreed at the time. If my father said that, it should be true. By the way, my father also said that there were some clues about what you asked him to investigate last time. He asked me to ask you and Wen The Taoist priest will go to your home and he will tell you personally."

Li Chuan said: "Okay, I can do it any day anyway. As for Mr. Wen, he has been in the capital recently. When I go back in the evening, ask him when he is free. If you have nothing else to do today, just come here and I’ll be your companion and we’ll go back together in the evening.”

Chang Xiao said, "Okay." He looked at the sword on the table and asked, "Can Dao Zhang Wen's sword still be repaired?"

"It's a bit troublesome." Li Chuan pointed to the cracks on the sword and said, "There are a lot of things mixed in, which affected my repair, so I had to pick them out one by one. And this ruby, I realized that this was not an ordinary gem, but It's the Burning Flame Crystal. For such a large piece, Daoist Wen said we should wait for the opportunity."

He said: "There is no rush anyway. I will study some cracks these days. By the way, if you want to lead the Yunshan Army, I will go to Xuanyan Mountain from time to time these days."

"Eh? Is it Mr. Li who is responsible for training soldiers in Qintian Supervisor?" Chang Xiao was surprised.

"What's wrong with me? I'm here to keep the soldiers' spirits up," Li Chuan denied, saying, "You see, I seem to be in good spirits lately, right?"

"Very good." Chang Xiao agreed.

"When it comes to suppressing demons, we just don't know which of these big demons are in collusion with Dragon King Gun." Li Chuan said, "Did you know that King Gun Dragon left the palace? I really don't know what your Majesty is thinking. Are you going to give up this world to monsters?"

Chang Xiao said: "Actually... to put it mildly, there is no suitable person except Dragon King Gun."

"Isn't it?" Li Chuan recalled it and said, "Aren't there several side branches? Can't you pick a normal person?"

Chang Xiao said: "They may not be as good as Dragon King Gun."

Then Chang Xiao and Li Chuan discussed the current situation in detail. He said: "When Your Majesty succeeded to the throne, she cleaned up the royal bloodline. She will not let go of any threat. This behavior has continued. It has been more than 20 years, and it has only gotten a little better in the past ten years."

He said: "And King Sulong... is the third son of His Majesty's younger brother, Prince Chun. It is said that Your Majesty and Prince Chun have always had a very good relationship. Prince Chun passed away eight years ago, and Your Majesty supported his coffin. And Prince Su , it seems that after turning three years old, he will be with His Majesty, and everyone knows that the throne will be his from now on."

Li Chuan asked: "Where are Prince Chun's other sons?"

Chang Xiao said: "They all died for Your Majesty."

It has been almost three months since Li Chuan came to Beijing. People who are familiar with him are either not interested in these things or do not get involved. It's not easy for him to discuss this with other people he doesn't know well.

Finally, Chang Xiao, a noble man who grew up in the capital, came. After he finished explaining, Li Chuan had some vague ideas about royal matters.

He said in confusion: "Then why does Dragon King Gang collude with the big demon? Can't he just wait?"

Chang Xiao said: "Then I don't know."
