This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 366: Prepare to break through to the third level!

"Ji Gong is definitely not that kind of person."

At this time, Li Jin suddenly stood up and said seriously:

"Ji Gong is the Duke of the country, how could he..."

Of course Lu Yuanzhi knew it wasn't Ji Xuan who did it.

He dared not tell anyone what Tianwei's heart was about him.

He replied calmly:
"This is not a question of whether Ji Gong did it or not, but once suspicion arises in His Majesty's heart, it cannot be suppressed..."

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words, Li Jin's eyes became worried. He looked at Lu Yuanzhi seriously and asked:
"That……"

Lu Yuanzhi chuckled and said:

"Don't panic. When Mr. Ji wants to use some method to dispel His Majesty's concerns, won't I jump out?"

"What do you mean?"

Li Jin felt like he was listening to a book from heaven.

Lu Yuanzhi just showed his big yellow teeth, smiled and stopped talking, lying leisurely on the small bed.

……

Early the next morning.

Ji Xuan slowly got off his carriage.

Looking at the imperial city in front of him, he walked inside as usual.

After entering the palace.

Ji Xuan stood at his usual position in the main hall.

Everyone's eyes looked towards him with a vague look.

There was joking, ridicule, and confusion.

Ji Xuan didn't react at all to these looks.

"The Holy One is here!"

Following the little eunuch's sharp cry.

Jianhong slowly sat on his dragon chair.

His eyes were flat.

"Something's going to happen."

The little eunuch also shouted.

Then someone took the initiative to step forward:

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

"explain."

Jianhong's faint gaze fell on that person.

That person was none other than Ling Yunhou, who had a conflict with Ji Xuan a few days ago.

However, at this time, Ling Yunhou was no longer arrogant compared to the previous days. He just glanced at Ji Xuan in the crowd secretly, bowed and said:
"Your Majesty, Duke Liu has been ordered to search for thieves for many days. I wonder what the current status is?"

After saying that, he stood up slowly.

His eyes were looking at the ground.

Hearing his words, everyone looked at Ji Xuan in the crowd.

Different looks.

When Jianhong heard this, his eyes became serious.

These days he is also waiting for Ji Xuan's letter.

Ever since I opened the box in the imperial study room last time and found that the contents of the box were missing.

Jianhong was furious.

He already had a candidate in mind at that time.

The suspect is none other than Ji Xuan.

After thinking about it, I found that only Ji Xuan gained the most benefits after losing Tianwei's Heart.

So the suspicion is the highest.

After thinking about it, Jianhong deliberately prevented the third division from investigating and handed the case to Pei Yinlang.

If Peiyinlang Yamen traces out the thief, he will find someone to investigate the thief privately.

Following the clues, one can know whether Ji Xuan stole Tianwei's heart.

If it can be determined.

Jianhong was not going to hide anymore. He had to go to the Imperial Preceptor to report the matter.

No matter what, Ji Xuan must be killed.

Because if it was really Ji Xuan, then he would have broken the rules of Dayong's national destiny.

If the rules of Dayong's national destiny are destroyed, the country's preceptor will suffer the most.

Therefore, the national master will definitely take action at that time.

With this idea in mind, Jianhong gave Ji Xuan the task of chasing the thief.

It depends on whether he is committing theft or if he really has nothing to do with the case.

"Mr. Liu Guo, how is the progress of this case?"

Jianhong spoke calmly and looked towards Ji Xuan.

Ji Xuan took a step forward gently, sighed softly and said:

"Your Majesty, there is no progress."

Hearing this, Jianhong's eyes flashed slightly.

What he expected was that if this "Heart of Tianwei" was really stolen by Ji Xuan, there would only be two outcomes.

The first one is that Ji Xuan randomly found a "thief" to fool himself.

The second is to use the word drag to decide.

Because only in this way will his losses be minimized.

There was a hint of anger in Jianhong's eyes, and he said:

"It's been ten days, and we can't even track down a trace of him?!"

Who can hear the anger in Jianhong's tone.

Ji Xuan sighed deeply and said:

"Your Majesty, I originally had some clues, but..."

With that said, Ji Xuan told what happened in the West Military Academy Lieutenant's Mansion. He said slowly:

"In the end, I could only put Lu Yuanzhi into the water prison. But after Lu Yuanzhi entered the water prison, my subordinates had no more available soldiers, so the speed of the investigation slowed down."

Hearing Ji Xuan's words.

Jianhong felt angry and happy.

He looked at Ji Xuan with deep eyes and said calmly:

"This matter is quite simple. Let Lu Yuanzhi be released first, and I will give him another ten days. If he can find the heart of Tianwei, it will be regarded as a meritorious service. If he cannot be found, then I can only... behead him at Meridian Gate. , as a warning to others!”

When he said this, Jianhong's tone was extremely solemn.

Apparently patience has been exhausted.

among the crowd.

There was a gloomy look in the uncle's eyes.

He looked at Ji Xuan with a murderous intent in his eyes.

"What a stupid thief!!"

The uncle's heart was filled with rage and curses.

In the eyes of his uncle, Ji Xuan chose to sacrifice Lu Yuanzhi in order to keep his own wings.

If you can't find the thief, you have to give Jianhong an explanation.

What explanation?
That means one of your Ji Xuan men will die.

Then Jianhong arranged for one of his "own people" to come in and take over.

Ji Xuan, on the other hand, chose to sacrifice Lu Yuanzhi.

Therefore, now the uncle wants to eat Ji Xuan.

But there is nothing that can be done.

Because at this time, the uncle was standing on the opposite side of Lu Yuanzhi.

If he dared to speak to Lu Yuanzhi above the main hall, then... his long-term plan might be in vain.

"I agree."

Ji Xuan nodded lightly, and then retreated to his seat.

Hearing Ji Xuan's answer.

Jianhong's brows raised slightly.

In his opinion, Ji Xuan has already made his choice.

As for thieves... After Ji Xuan came to the mansion of the Western Military Academy Lieutenant, the upright Yunpei's subordinate wanted to frame Lieutenant Liu for hiding a thief, but Lu Yuanzhi found out and killed the subordinate with a knife.

In Jianhong's mind, Ji Xuan's suspicion had been cleared.

As for this move of abandoning the car to save the handsome man.

Ji Xuan can be considered a smart man.

Everyone saw Ji Xuan's choice and showed contempt.

Ji Xuan, on the other hand, was expressionless.

After Jianhong announced his resignation, he walked out of the palace.

As soon as I reached the gate of the palace, I was ready to get on the carriage.

Then I heard my uncle’s voice:

"Thief Ji, you must die a happy death!"

The uncle gritted his teeth and looked at Ji Xuan and cursed:

"The pawn who has done great things for you has given up at the drop of a hat. Who will dare to follow you in the future?!"

When Ji Xuan heard this voice, not only was he not angry, but he smiled.

He slowly turned around and looked at his uncle's face.

"What does this matter have to do with you?"

Ji Xuan raised his eyebrows deliberately:

"Ji abandoned his own people."

"you!"

The uncle was speechless for a while.

Yes, he had "severed" relations with Lu Yuanzhi long ago.

Then, the uncle snorted coldly:
"Anyway, that little beast is also the child of a certain sister. Although it has nothing to do with it, but..." At this point, his eyes became colder and he looked at Ji Xuan:

"Sooner or later you will be punished."

Ji Xuan just smiled gently, got on the carriage, and stopped talking to his uncle.

The uncle was left looking at the back of his carriage in a daze for a moment.

After returning to the Yamen, Ji Xuan went directly to the water prison without stopping.

When he saw Lu Yuanzhi lying leisurely on the bed eating grapes.

The anger in his eyes could no longer be hidden.

"Master Lu, you are living a very comfortable life."

When Lu Yuanzhi heard this voice, he jumped up from the bed.

After seeing Ji Xuan, he quickly swallowed the grape skins that he didn't have time to spit out.

"Ji Gong, how can you come to a place like this with a body worth thousands of dollars?"

Lu Yuanzhi rolled and crawled to Ji Xuan's side.

"Hmph! You wouldn't know if I didn't come! I changed my water prison into a brothel. Is this?!"

Ji Xuan snorted heavily.

Lu Yuanzhi looked embarrassed and said with a sneer:

"Harm, blame me, blame me."

After saying that, he looked at Ji Xuan with a puzzled look:

"Why are you here at this time?"

Of course, Ji Xuan could see this extremely poor topic-changing technique, but he didn't intend to give Lu Yuanzhi so much trouble on this matter.

"Let's go, you don't have to stay here anymore, you can go out."

Ji Xuan replied calmly.

"what?"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan was stunned, and a smile instantly appeared on his face:
"Have you ever had a confrontation with His Majesty?"

"Humph."

Ji Xuan snorted:
"Jianhong has now dispelled his doubts about me, but... you may be in some danger."

As he said that, Ji Xuan could no longer hide the smile in his eyes, and there was a rare trace of schadenfreude on his face:

"Jianhong said he would release you from the water prison and if he couldn't find Tianwei's heart within ten days, he would chop off your head."

Hearing Ji Xuan's words, Lu Yuanzhi felt a thunderbolt from the blue that blew him apart.

"No! I will become your car??!"

How could Lu Yuanzhi not think of this? His face was filled with grievances:
"I was loyal to you, but at the critical moment, you sent me away??!"

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words, Ji Xuan glanced at him unexpectedly:
"Aren't you stupid?"

Lu Yuanzhi was speechless. He scratched his neck and said:
"I've been with you for so long, how is it possible that I haven't made any progress?"

Ji Xuan chuckled:
"Don't worry, I've prepared a replacement for Tianwei's Heart."

Yo ho?

Hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi's eyes lit up.

He chuckled and said:
"what?"

Ji Xuan glanced at him lightly: "Chi Yan Lotus."

"what??"

Lu Yuanzhi was stunned, "Isn't that my thing??"

"It's yours."

Ji Xuan is still dull.

Hear this.

Lu Yuanzhi reacted instantly.

He looked towards Ji Xuan fiercely:
"You mean to let me refine the Chi Yan Lotus Seeds and break through to the third level within ten days??!"

"clever."

After Ji Xuan finished speaking, he left.

When leaving, the voice slowly reached Lu Yuanzhi's ears:

"Take it tonight, come to me and have sex, and I will help you."

Looking at Ji Xuan's retreating figure.

Lu Yuanzhi was silent for a long time.

In the end, I could only silently extend my thumb and say:

"Ji Gong is really very tall!!"

Lu Yuanzhi suddenly realized it now.

He is now at the peak of the fourth level.

If he can reach the third level, he will become the only one in the extraordinary realm of Dayong.

Then Jianhong would never let himself die.

He can only spare no effort to win over himself.

Don't say you can't complete the task.

Even if he was shitting on Jianhong's head, he still had to praise Lu Aiqing for making the shit look better than others.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuanzhi quickly put on his clothes and walked outside.

…………

After coming out of the prison, Lu Yuanzhi's eyes became a little deeper.

Is it the time for me to break through to the third level tonight...

A little too fast...

In just one year.

I went from ninth grade, liver to third grade.

This is comparable to riding a rocket.

"Touer Lu?!"

After Zhang Shenxing saw Lu Yuan, a look of confusion flashed in his eyes.

"How did you get out of prison?"

Hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi looked at Zhang Shenxing.

At this time, Zhang Shenxing froze when he saw Lu Yuanzhi.

"Why can't I come out?"

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at Zhang Shenxing speechlessly:

"Go to those brothers and tell them that I was released by Ji Gong and ask them to come back and work hard."

Zhang Shenxing was stunned for a moment:
"work?"

Lu Yuanzhi huffed and said:

"reinstatement."

"Oh! I'm going right now!"

Zhang Shenxing walked out directly.

……

Lu Yuanzhi returned to his bedroom and stretched.

Then there was nothing to do.

Now that you are ready for a breakthrough, enjoy the moment.

time flies.

It didn't take long for night to come.

Lu Yuanzhi's figure appeared in Yinwu Hall.

Come to the highest floor.

He knocked on the door gently.

"Come in."

Lu Yuanzhi pushed the door open and saw Ji Xuan sitting on a chair reading a book.

"Ji Gong, I'm here."

Lu Yuanzhi chuckled, came and sat down in front of Ji Xuan.

"Ah."

Ji Xuan nodded lightly, then put down the book in his hand and looked at Lu Yuanzhi:

"You are almost done with your martial arts journey now. After tonight, I will have nothing to help you."

Lu Yuanzhi looked serious:
"No matter what happens, you are my reborn parents in my eyes."

Ji Xuan chuckled, shook his head slowly, and then said softly:

"Did you bring the Chi Yan Lotus?"

"Here it is."

Without any hesitation, Lu Yuanzhi directly took out the Chi Yan Lotus from the scripture space.

In an instant, the temperature in the entire room slowly rose.

"Cut off the roots and take the whole plant."

After seeing the lotus, Ji Xuan looked at Lu Yuanzhi seriously.

"it is good!"

A narrow knife appeared from Lu Yuanzhi's hand. After one blow, the entire Chiyan lotus seed was cut off by Lu Yuanzhi.

"Swallow it!"

Ji Xuan's voice was urgent.

Lu Yuanzhi quickly opened his mouth and stuffed the whole lotus into his mouth.

Then he chewed it a few times and swallowed it.

After Lu Yuanzhi swallowed it, Ji Xuan hurried to Lu Yuanzhi's side.

"Sit cross-legged and open up your own territory."

After hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi sat down directly, and the next moment, a gray field spread out from his body in all directions.

Ji Xuan slowly put his hand on Lu Yuanzhi's back, and a powerful breath flowed along his hand towards Lu Yuanzhi's body.

At this moment, a huge burst of hot energy suddenly burst out from Lu Yuanzhi's abdomen...
