This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 386 The truth!

Jianhong is the Kewusi who walked out with a dark face.

He asked the Imperial Master some questions, but the old man didn't say a word.

You must let me play the guessing game for him here.

Jianhong was very irritated.

After returning to the palace, Jianhong lay down and took a deep sleep.

Far North.

Monster clan.

Even darker than Jianhong's face is the current Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan.

His face without features was facing an extremely simple cauldron at this time. He didn't say anything, but everyone could detect the extremely dangerous aura on his body.

A blazing flame burned beneath the cauldron.

Directly above, a fiery red egg was suspended above it.

The red egg was slowly absorbing the aura emanating from the cauldron.

In front of the cauldron, a long queue almost reached the outside of the hall.

Every demon clan member in the queue was looking at the cauldron with extremely pious expressions.

With a "Come in." sounded.

The demon clan member at the front threw the cub in his arms into the cauldron without any hesitation.

Then he jumped in too...

The Demon King standing in the hall still didn't speak.

"Father..."

Chaoyue watched as another demon warrior jumped into the cauldron and became the nourishment for the "Fire Phoenix Egg" without any regrets.

There was a hint of distress in his eyes:
"These are all warriors of our demon clan!"

The current Demon King standing in front of the cauldron showed no signs of movement. His face without facial features was still staring at the egg suspended in the air.

Seeing that his father did not respond to him, Chao Yue knelt on the ground fiercely:
"Father..."

"Shut up!!"

Annoyed by Chao Yue's noise, the current Demon King suddenly looked towards Chao Yue, and an extremely violent aura flew towards Chao Yue.

"Oh!"

Chao Yue's body flew up and hit the back hard.

"In order to hatch this egg, the resources within our demon clan have been tilted a lot! Now we have no retreat!"

The huge mouth on the Demon King's face was opened extremely wide, and each of the densely packed teeth in the mouth shone with a cold light.

"Cough cough."

Chaoyue coughed and climbed up from the ground with difficulty.

Because of his contribution to the "Fire Phoenix Egg", the demon emperor's body that was broken by Lu Yuanzhi had been repaired by his father using secret methods.

The Demon King's terrifying aura, even the random fluctuations of his aura, was not something he could resist.

"But my father, the warrior of my demon clan..."

"roll!"

The Demon King shouted loudly, and Chao Yue's body flew out of the palace uncontrollably.

"Hey, who is this? Why is he looking like a dog?"

After Chaoyue hit the ground outside the hall, he saw a familiar figure.

That's his big brother.

"Humph!"

Chaoyue stood up slowly, ignored him, and walked towards her residence.

…………

"What??!"

When Lu Yuanzhi heard Ji Xuan's words, he stood up directly.

He looked at Ji Xuan in disbelief:

"Ji Gong, don't say such nonsense! How could that demon clan dare to violate the power of my Great Yong?"

Ji Xuan's eyes remained indifferent.

He looked at Lu Yuanzhi and said in a moderate voice:

"The life or death of the mighty lord is uncertain. The border defense formation will lose its effectiveness next year. Without the resistance of the formation, the invasion of the demon clan is already a certainty."

Lu Yuanzhi took a deep breath and looked at Ji Xuan with burning eyes:

"But I don't believe that Marquis Weiwu died so easily."

This is what he has wanted to say for a long time, but because there is no one to say it.

Today's conversation happened to be here, so he told his guess.

"Ok?"

Ji Xuan looked at Lu Yuanzhi's determined eyes, raised his eyebrows in surprise, and asked:
"Are you so sure?"

Lu Yuanzhi slowly sat up straight, his eyes lingering on Ji Xuan:
"Ji Gong, not only do I suspect that Wei Wuhou is not dead, I even suspect that all of this is a trap, a trap set by the demon clan, or all foreign races!"

"Ok?"

When Ji Xuan heard this, his pupils were shaken for a moment, and he said in a deep voice:

"Go on."

Lu Yuanzhi took a breath and slowly looked out the window.

At this time, the night outside the window was dark, and the moon was so shining in this sky.

"Originally I had no suspicion, but Chaoyue's sudden appearance surprised me."

"The grudge between me, Dayong, and the demon clan can simply be described as a blood feud. How can I possibly receive the envoy of the demon clan?"

"If we really receive the demon envoy, it has only one purpose."

Lu Yuanzhi's eyes slowly moved over Ji Xuan:
"on purpose."

"hehe."

Ji Xuan did not speak, but motioned for Lu Yuanzhi to continue speaking.

At this time, Lu Yuanzhi's voice had become very solemn:

"I handled the Xianglian case, and this is also the first case I handled."

"How could a small lower-caste member of the Nanjiang Clan be able to enter such a meticulous defensive formation??"

"This idea has appeared in my mind more than once."

Lu Yuanzhi's eyes slowly brightened:
"It wasn't until I met Marquis Weiwu in Chongbei County. Although I didn't know that he was Marquis Weiwu at the time, it didn't stop me from thinking about it."

"After I came to Beijing and joined Pei Yinlang, I understood one thing better. Pei Yinlang's traitors can't escape, no matter what! Not for anything else, just because they are still on the first floor of Yinwu Hall The "Tower of Knowledge" is placed there.

"The nature of the person coming will be found out on the first day. If it is not found out... then it is because you let him in deliberately, including Wang Yinxiao behind him."

Lu Yuanzhi's voice was extremely determined.

"So, you deliberately put Wang Daoyuan in Chongbei! In other words, you, His Majesty, the Imperial Preceptor and the Weiwu Marquis must have reached some kind of agreement!"

"I only figured this out when I came back from the Hangzhou King Yu case."

There was a hint of calmness in Lu Yuanzhi's voice:
"I killed King Yu with my own hands, and Jianhong didn't go to the Imperial Preceptor to sue you. This is unreasonable. If I were Jianhong, no matter who you are, as long as you kill my brother, I will pay any price to sue the Imperial Preceptor." Master, come and reward my brother, no matter whether you are a third-grade warrior or not!"

"But Jianhong actually has no intention of getting rid of you..."

Lu Yuanzhi's voice was extremely calm:

"Then there is only one possibility. You are still of great use in his eyes!"

"This is so useful. The moment I saw Chao Yue enter the palace, I instantly understood it!

"The success of the assassination of Wei Wuhou is only because you and Jianhong are willing to let the demon clan succeed in the assassination!"

"All of this is a game! A game against those alien races!!"

"From the time Wei Wuhou disappeared until now, I haven't heard any news about him at any time. I guess someone must have blocked it deliberately."

"Why block his news?"

"Because the mighty lord is doing a big thing!! A big thing that cannot be known to anyone!!"

Lu Yuanzhi's eyes suddenly looked at Ji Xuan:

"Am I right, Ji Gong?"

Ji Xuan didn't speak, he just poured a cup of tea quietly.

Lu Yuanzhi continued:

"So, Karen was let in on purpose, and the assassins of the demon clan were also put in on purpose."

"And those who solve the Xianglian case must go to Beijing and live under the eyes of everyone, including you, Jianhong, and the Imperial Master."

"So, uncle has become Jianhong's loyal lackey, I have become your subordinate, Erlang is in Qinghe Academy, and cousin..."

Speaking of this, Lu Yuanzhi said slowly:
"Also entered the Kewu Department."

"Whether we have guessed the truth behind Xiang Lian's entry into Dayong or not, we must be monitored, and the surveillance must be strict. That's why the scene of the relationship breakdown between my uncle and I is so ridiculous."

"This is all for one thing."

Lu Yuanzhi looked at Ji Xuan firmly: "Please enter the urn."

Ji Xuan also cast his eyes over.

Lu Yuanzhi was stunned.

He saw that Ji Xuan's eyes were very complicated, but the eyes he looked at him were so clear, so... gentle.

"Ji Gong."

Lu Yuanzhi pursed his lips.

"Your guess is correct."

After a long time, Ji Xuan sighed complicatedly.

"You are very smart."

Lu Yuanzhi did not speak, but sat slumped on the chair, a daze flashed in his eyes.

"A larger border defense formation is waiting for them."

Ji Xuan's voice was extremely calm:

"For Dayong, Wei Wuhou and I are willing to sacrifice everything."

"include……"

Lu Yuanzhi's heart sank slightly, and he suddenly looked up at Ji Xuan, with disbelief in his eyes.

"I know you want to talk about the fire phoenix egg, right?"

A smile appeared on Ji Xuan's face, an extremely clean smile.

Lu Yuanzhi had only seen such a smile on the face of Fozi Yingchen.

"Yes, in order to disguise the fire phoenix egg, I used the origin of a third-grade warrior."

Ji Xuan's voice became much more relaxed:

"And for the sake of a broader border defense formation, the mighty Marquis is willing to sacrifice himself."

When it comes to the word sacrifice, Ji Xuan seems like nothing has happened.

"But, so what's the problem?!"

Ji Xuan bites every word very lightly, but in Ji Xuan's ears, it is so deafening.

"For the peace of the people and the prosperity of Dayong, we don't care."

It's as if the tea on the table is wine.

Ji Xuan drank it all in one gulp.

"Ji Gong..."

An indescribable touch suddenly appeared in Lu Yuanzhi's heart.

He also knew where this touch of emotion came from.

All he knew was that he wanted to cry.

"So, what we have to do now is to wait for them to launch a massive attack."

Ji Xuan looked at Lu Yuanzhi calmly:
"At that time, Dayong will even lose half of the country."

"But they can also get carried away and let down all vigilance."

Lu Yuanzhi pursed his lips.

"When the time comes... what awaits them will be a river of blood."

"Haha, I always thought that although you were smart, you were just a child with only a little cleverness."

Ji Xuan's voice was extremely complicated:

"You made a mistake."

Lu Yuanzhi pursed his lips and did not answer.

"Go back and have a good rest. Xuanjing Hall has already prepared it for you. When your people arrive in Beijing, they can directly arrange positions. If there is anything you don't understand, learn it quickly. You don't have much time. "

Ji Xuan smiled gently and gently placed the tea on his chest.

Lu Yuanzhi pursed his lips tightly, and then walked out without saying a word.

……

After leaving Pei Yinlang's Yamen.

Lu Yuanzhi's heart was extremely complicated.

Today is the moment he is closest to the truth.

But the truth is really uncomfortable.

Ji Gong would rather shake his origin as a third-grade warrior than disguise an ordinary demon egg into a fire phoenix egg with extremely strong vitality.

Lu Yuanzhi didn't even have to think about it. That fire phoenix egg would waste at least half of the Zhengsheng Demon Clan's resources, or even more!
That's a complete set for the demon clan!
But for this trap.

Dayong is about to lose two extremely important and great people.

Mighty Hou.

Ji Gong......

Lu Yuanzhi thought silently in his heart.

He has always felt powerless as a chess piece.

I thought that after reaching the third level, it wouldn't matter.

But I didn't expect that even if I reached the third level, there would still be things that I couldn't control.

……

The next day.

Lu Yuanzhi got up very early.

As the Marquis of Dayong, the second-rank Pei Yinlang is the deputy commander.

From now on, I will go to court honestly.

He already has the qualifications to participate in government affairs.

Sitting on the carriage.

Slowly looking out the window at the scenery flowing backward.

Lu Yuanzhi felt Dayong's vitality for the first time.

So early, hundreds of officials have already begun to leave their homes one after another.

The street vendors have also started their business for the new day.

"Master Hou, you will stand here from now on."

Just when Lu Yuanzhi was standing, a voice from the small yellow door sounded respectfully in his ears.

Following his finger, Lu Yuanzhi saw a place that was only one position away from Ji Xuan.

"Ah."

Without saying anything else, Lu Yuanzhi slowly came to that position.

In the past, when I came to participate in the morning dynasty, I would either do it in the middle of the morning dynasty or follow Ji Gong.

But today is the first time that he participates in his own capacity.

This feeling is amazing.

When the officials slowly appeared in the main hall.

A figure also slowly walked in from outside the hall.

Seeing this figure, almost everyone saluted him:
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Cough, cough, no need to be polite."

The prince's face was still pale, and every step he took seemed to use up all his strength. He walked with difficulty, but he did not need anyone to help him.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

When he came to Lu Yuanzhi's side, Lu Yuanzhi gave a faint salute.

"I've seen Qinghe Hou."

The prince also bowed to Lu Yuanzhi, then passed Lu Yuanzhi and slowly walked towards his seat.

The main hall gradually became quiet.

"Your Majesty has arrived!!!"

A sharp voice sounded.

Everyone in the entire hall:

"I have met your Majesty, my emperor has been around for ten thousand years."

"I have met my father for thousands of years."

……

"Forgive me."
