Sometimes he turned into the agent of the year phase that Wei Yanwu feared, sometimes he turned into a real dragon, sometimes he turned into Yuan Congqian, Li Cunshan, the Duke of Shu, it was like he had a thousand faces. Every time a face appeared, it would make Wei Yanwu feel a little more terrified.

"You, you, why would there be someone like you in the capital?"

Even if the sword was swung towards his body, it would go straight over his body like a ghost.

The black shadow looked at Wei Yanwu, as if he had discovered something new. His whole temperament suddenly changed, just like a little child who had discovered a new toy.

"Give me your sword."

The black shadow spoke softly and stretched out his right hand directly to Wei Yanwu.

Wei Yanwu just looked at him without resistance, allowing the black shadow to gently grasp his sword, and smiled.

"Let me show you our latest achievements over the past year..."

"The sky has a furnace, and the earth produces metals!"

"Boom!" With the huge sound of metal forging, the sword turned into a pile of red ingots and shattered on the ground.

The dreamy golden-red ingots kept falling to the ground, like large and small pearls falling on a jade plate, stirring up waves of repetitive echoes in Wei Yanwu's mind.

The black shadow gradually dissipated, and his face finally stopped on Fu Tingzhao's face.

"If you are afraid, then let the Duke of Shu come. You, just take the ingot and run away."

……

The deepest negative emotions in your heart become real monsters.

The name of the monster is the Entity of Fear.

The entity of fear and the false becoming true, the two overlapped. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival when the rumors about Xuanwu Gate were at their peak, Yuan Congqian felt the enhancement of his Originium skills.

It was a fear that was even more profound than the one he felt when he went to kill Minister Huang.

The master of fear was someone he had never expected, Wei Yanwu.

Through the combined effect of making a false thing come true and fearing the entity, the deepest negative emotions in the hearts of those who are afraid of Yuan Congqian can be mobilized, which is also the oldest and strongest emotion of mankind, fear.

Yuan Congqian used the excuse of urinating to test the fear in Wei Yanwu's heart.

The result of the attempt was that he was now vomiting in the orchard by the roadside, with the silver mask in his hand tightly pressed to the ground. Using the false reality and the evil characteristics of the fear entity at the same time could only keep the fear entity for about two minutes.

And because Wei Yanwu knew about Simuitai's research and was afraid, it was a pleasant surprise that the Fear Entity obtained a part of the power of the year. The false evil forging power now also belonged to Yuan Congqian.

Yan Junyan, who heard the unusual noise, rushed over and saw Yuan Congqian lying on the ground, and rushed over in a hurry.

"Cong Qian, what is this mask of yours?"

"It's okay, probably the food has gone bad, it will be much better if you spit it out."

Yuan Congqian stood up with the help of Yan Junyan and hid his right hand, which was already sore that it exploded, behind his back: "This mask was left by the person who came to slaughter my entire Yuan family that day. I keep it as a souvenir."

"It is obviously!... Forget it, you and I both know it, there is no need to say more." Yan Junyan naturally knew at a glance that the mask belonged to Si Suitai. He thought that Yuan Congqian really had a stomachache and helped him onto the animal cart.

The animal cart started again and slowly headed towards the inner city.

Chapter 3 Duke of Wei, I Want to Improve So Much (Additional Chapter )

Now that we are here, it’s more important than the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Duke of Wei, I really want to make progress.

If Wei Lao Er keeps shrinking and is stuck in the position of Duke of Wei, it will be difficult for Yuan Congqian and other people around Duke of Wei to make progress. Thousands of years ago, the first generation of real dragons borrowed the years to pacify the giant beast, but now the corpse can scare Wei Lao Er half to death. Is that reasonable?

If even a corpse can scare him so much, how can Yuan Congqian make progress, how can Li Cunshan, Yan Junyan, and everyone else in the Western Pharmacy make progress, and how can the Ursus people make progress?

At this time, Wei Yanwu needed a little help from Yuan Congqian.

After being marked by Yuan Congqian, he can create terrifying entities through the emotions in his heart.

Wei Yanwu was afraid of Fu Tingzhao, so the entity of fear would turn into Fu Tingzhao's appearance. Wei Yanwu was afraid that Fu Tingzhao had mastered the technique of stealing the power of the year, so the entity of fear really stole the power of the year and became half a year.

Problems that cannot be solved by nonlinear movement and cannot be learned can be solved by fear entities.

Baizao Imperial City, enter Chengtian Gate.

When Yuan Congqian stepped off the beast-carrying cart, he immediately felt the oppressive and murderous atmosphere of the palace, which had almost become tangible. Yan Junyan and Li Cunshan also narrowed their eyes and looked at the densely packed imperial guards who kept coming and going.

Yan Junyan looked at the several animal-carrying carts that had stopped at the entrance of Chengtian Gate. After identifying them, he whispered, "The Minister of Justice, the Junior Minister of the Dali Temple, the Minister of Justice, the Vice Minister of Works, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Linming Guard."

Li Cunshan asked the guard directly:

"What's going on with the palace being under martial law?"

"It is inconvenient to talk about this matter with outsiders. The emperor has already held a banquet in the inner west garden. You three should go in as soon as possible."

Yan Junyan frowned: "Inner West Garden? According to convention, isn't it in Hanguang Palace or Hanyuan Palace?"

This is unusual. I'm afraid the reason for the martial law this time is different from the past.

If something unexpected happened during the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet that Zhenlong was enjoying with the people, Zhenlong would be unhappy for the whole year. If he was unhappy, the ministers would suffer, and it was unknown what kind of trouble he would cause them.

Several people handed their swords to the guards and entered Chengtian Gate under the guidance of the guards.

After entering the palace, the three learned the reason for the martial law: thieves appeared in the palace and attacked Duke Wei Yanwu of Wei who was resting in an empty garden in the palace.

"This is impossible. The Heavenly Master and the Imperial Guards are stationed heavily here. Who can get past them and enter the palace?"

Yan Junyan's first reaction was to deny it. He was more familiar than anyone else with how strict the security in the palace was.

There are two places where the Great Yan army has the strongest forces. One is to guard against the evil demon Tianji Pavilion on the north line, and the other is the Great Yan Palace. Even high-ranking officials will be questioned if they approach the palace in the imperial city.

If he could assassinate Wei Yanwu in the imperial palace, then assassinating a real dragon wouldn't be easy for him, right?

Li Cunshan said, "This shows that they dare not stare at the place where our Duke of Wei went. It was either desolate or sensitive, so they only said that he was in an uninhabited garden. Most likely, he was attacked in the abandoned palace."

Yan Junyan reacted and felt half worried and half happy.

"At least I am willing to go."

"But how did the thieves know that the Duke of Wei would go there?"

The guards led the group to the Inner West Garden. After going through numerous formalities, Yuan Congqian was able to enter the pavilions, towers, and landscapes that were listed as the private back garden of the royal family without a sword or seal.

A group of people in official robes were already kneeling before the real dragon.

When he came, he could still hear the suppressed angry voice of the real dragon: "...your shadow guards are all old soldiers after that incident. Why would you rather walk through the palace with a sword drawn than to protect your own safety?"

"I was terrified for a moment. I didn't know how he knew where I was..."

Wei Yanwu sat on a flower bed full of flowers, still in shock. He did not raise his head even when Yuan Congqian and the other two arrived.

The pile of fiery red fire-forged source stone ingots were all collected and placed in the distance.

"Uncle." Yuan Congqian saluted the real dragon from a distance.

The real dragon looked at Li Cunshan, Yan Junyan, and Yuan Congqian who were already walking together, and said without saying much, "Come over here. I'm tired today, so I'll just go for a walk around the Seventh Mansion..."

Yan Junyan straightened his clothes and walked towards the real dragon with a smile.

"Brother, are you really not going to Jing'anfang? It's not too far from the imperial city. I heard that Congqian's Yunque Pavilion has recently introduced many new dishes, and the court officials are vying to taste them."

"You are the female sumo wrestler of Chan Yunque Pavilion."

"Brother, aren't you greedy?"

Yan Junyan asked back, causing the real dragon to laugh.

The two of them joked with each other harmoniously, as if they didn't notice the important court official kneeling on the ground.

After a long time, the real dragon finally woke up as if from a dream and looked at Wei Yanwu:

"Duke Wei, go talk to Congqian. Don't be so distant. Your uncle said he learned a new trick of the pagoda meat from Yuan Congqian. It sounds very interesting. I'll go with him to see what's going on."

"Yes."

"Uncle, take care."

Zhenlong's gaze passed Wei Yanwu and swept to the ministers kneeling on the ground. He sneered, "It will be the same as usual tonight. The sound of forging was heard clearly in the palace."

After all, Wei Yanwu has not yet grown to the point where he can threaten the power of the True Dragon.

There is still a family relationship between him and Zhenlong, so it is not surprising that Wei Yanwu told Zhenlong about the assassination.

Instantly shaping the fire-forged source stone into tiny ingots, and being able to change one's face from real to virtual, these are not something that a single person's source stone skills can do. But if Simu Tai had mastered the research on the power of calling the fragments of the year...

"Your Majesty, why don't you summon General Zuo to ask for his advice?"

The Dali Temple Shaoqing suddenly raised his head and spoke loudly.

"If it was done by Nian, there must be errors and omissions in the Simatai files. We should punish them according to the law and detain Nian and Ji. If it was not done by Nian, Simatai must have been involved and we must investigate..."

"How dare you speak nonsense in front of His Majesty!"

Before he could finish his words, he was suppressed by the old senior beside him.

"Yu Cheng is a little boy, relying on his achievements, he dares to speak nonsense in front of Your Majesty. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Looking at the two of them, Zhenlong was silent for a long time.

It's like weighing an extremely important choice.

He looked at Wei Yanwu who was keeping his head down and saying nothing, and then looked at Yuan Congqian and the other two who were walking together.

After a while, he said slowly: "Fu Qing is old, how can I bear to let him walk to the inner garden? The Si Sui Tai is of great importance. You Dali Temple and Su Zheng Yuan should investigate this matter first, and then go to the Si Sui Tai."

"Here."

"When you see Fu Qing, please help me tell him this. General Zuo has been seriously ill and has been busy with the paperwork of the Simaitai. In the end, such an oversight occurred. I really can't bear to blame him."

"Here."

"Well, that's about it for ordinary things. Let's go and take a look at the pagoda meat you mentioned."

Afterwards, he smiled and went to another place with Yan Junyan.

Chapter 4: Wei Yanwu's Dream of Being a Hero (Additional Chapter )

The foreign ministers who were kneeling on the ground stood up one after another and saluted respectfully in the direction where the real dragon left.

Each of them looked a little red and warm.

Under the theme of prosperity required by the True Dragon, the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple cannot blindly launch a major case investigation, and it is even more difficult to go to the Tianshi Mansion to hunt for the Originium reaction. There are Originium lamps everywhere on the street, and there is an Originium furnace under the mobile city. How to check?

When passing by Yuan Congqian, Yu Shaoqing even looked at him twice and whispered, "My dear, please be patient. The Simatai deliberately made up stories about the Western Pharmacy, and the Dali Temple knows it very well, but don't attack them together now."

His show of goodwill was beyond Yuan Congqian's expectations.

Yuan Congqian nodded silently.

Yu Cheng pretended nothing had happened, lagged behind Dali Qing by half a step, and left in a hurry.

Hearing the other person's name, Yuan Congqian recalled his name in his mind.

Yu Cheng, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, had been the Shaoqing for nearly 1088 years and was Lin Qingyan's old boss. In , when he was about to retire, he was still able to inspect the prisons throughout the country and reverse the trend of corruption in the Yan State. He was regarded as an idol by Lin Qingyan.

Unfortunately, when he secretly investigated the Huang case after retirement, a piece of evidence that Yu Cheng Shaoqing had falsely testified against the Langyi prefect in 1089 "happened" to fall into the hands of Shaoqing Lin Qingyan. For the sake of procedural justice in his heart, Lin Qingyan resolutely asked the Supervisory Department to recall his old boss to the capital to be punished, resulting in the Huang case becoming a completely unsolved case.

Li Cunshan took Yuan Congqian to find a seat and handed him a cup of refreshing tea.

"Fu Tingzhao is going to be in trouble. An old man like him is still sitting in the position of Simaitai."

"It is not the duty of a minister to guess the intentions of his superiors."

At this time, Yuan Congqian was still thinking about what Zhenlong had said to Fu Tingzhao, and he said one thing in his heart and another.

"Then drink tea. Every Mid-Autumn Festival and Lantern Festival, His Majesty will have fun all night with his relatives and ministers. If you don't sleep during the day, drink more."

If we want to drink, have fun and listen to music all night long, we naturally won’t invite Lao Deng over.

What Zhenlong said is actually very interesting.

"I really can't bear to blame him" was said to Fu Tingzhao, as well as to the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple. This sentence was said to Fu Tingzhao, naturally asking him to write a letter of resignation and not to tear the face of the emperor and his subjects.

And there was more to say to the Dali Temple. Fu Tingzhao made a mistake, but it was not big enough to cover up his merits and let me deal with him according to the law - this was the True Dragon hinting that they should continue to search for evidence!

If Zhenlong only wanted to tell Fu Tingzhao, why did he let the investigators deliver the oral order?

When Yuan Congqian was pondering the meaningful words of the real dragon, Wei Yanwu took the initiative to find him. Facing the high probability of the next generation of real dragons, Li Cunshan did not speak, and Yuan Congqian knew that he was nervous.

Lao Li carefully read the history books and found that the emperor's purse had always fulfilled its duty of saving money for the emperor.

But what he fears is that the money bag does its job well!

"Yuan Congqian. My cousin."

Wei Yanwu looked at Yuan Congqian, who was tied to the same rope as him, and murmured, "Tell me, will people really walk down a road where there is no turning back? Whether they like it or not, once they stop, they will die."
