Chapter 747: The Reputation Will Become Unfortunate

"You stupid pig head."

In the secret room, Huangfu Qing's whole body was exuding the pink color of satisfaction. The little bird was leaning against the pig's head, feeling weak but extremely satisfied.

Before in the capital, either with the dead turtle or with the rebellious villain, I hadn't been alone with him for a long time. I didn't expect that I fell in love with him immediately when I came to Chang'an. It was so refreshing.

It is said that it was Tang Wanzhuang who suggested that he come, right? You are sensible! When I look back, I will reward her with a picture of a pig on her doorstep, so that she can miss her.

Oh, that's right... Thinking back to those days, when that guy lived across from me, was there such a scene? It's been so long ago that I can't remember... Later, the Tang family moved to the capital on a large scale. When there were more people, the house across the street couldn't be accommodated, so they moved out. When the house across the street was resold, the price doubled. It was a huge profit.

Compared with today's relationship, it is like the yellowed ancient calligraphy and painting, they are all traces worth recalling.

In fact, her eagerness to love was not simply because she was hungry, but because she had completely broken through the imperial realm and hoped to share her insights with her lover through dual cultivation. Huangfu Qing could see that Zhao Changhe was currently stuck on the edge of the Imperial Realm with only a layer of window paper missing. From the perspective of "Conquering the Galaxy", his Southern Vermilion Bird's intention was a greatly overlapping reference for him. He wanted to make a It's possible to directly help him break the barrier.

The Jiuyou just now was so terrifying. Even the three people who surrounded her couldn't feel the slightest weakness in her. It felt like the other party withdrew because they didn't want to fight. If they really fought, it felt like they would probably not be able to defeat her... So what on earth is that? level? Second level of imperial realm, early stage? Probably pretty much the same.

In this situation, it would be much better if Zhao Changhe could break through the defense in time. At least he should have a chance to win the siege.

As a result, it was obviously a bit dreamy to expect to break through the imperial power in one double cultivation, but the breakthrough was still not successful. On the contrary, Zhao Changhe instilled a lot of things into her, such as wind, energy, cause and effect, life and death... Of course, not everything instilled in her is useful. If it is not in line with the way, it is not in line with the way. It is the meaning of Yin Fire and life and death that Suzaku has benefited a lot from.

She is the emperor who broke through this layer! Now Zhao Changhe interpreted it from another angle, which confirmed her too much. If you want to achieve perfection in the first level of imperial realm, you will probably have to understand all aspects of these angles of life and death. At that time, you should be able to try the second level. Of course, it's still early, and Zhao Changhe gave him the most needed introduction.

Huangfu Qing was a little speechless in her heart. I'm here to help you. Why did you fill me up without saying a word? In every sense...

What a dead pighead.

Zhutou seemed to be comprehending something, and after a while he smiled: "You came at the right time. I always feel that your nature is exactly the kind that can exert the greatest restraint or hedge against Jiuyou. I share your intention, next time If we fight again, we might be able to play better. ”

Huangfu Qing said: "What's the use of looking good? If you can't break the imperial guard, there will be no fundamental change. Yuxu will not follow you to protect him every day. Don't you go out in the future?"

Zhao Changhe laughed: "Jiuyou doesn't know who I am. I still think I am a Buddhist disciple named Qin Jiu. I just change my clothes and my face and go out. Where will she find me?"

Huangfu Qing: "...Yes."

"On the contrary, since you have appeared in Chang'an, as long as the princes of Chang'an are not stupid, you will now search the whole city for 'Venerable Suzaku of the Pseudo-Chapter Demon Cult'. What are your plans now? Also change your appearance?"

"My disguise is probably of no use. The auras of Jiuyou and I are somewhat attracted to each other. As long as we are nearby, I'm afraid we can all sense it... It's strange to say that with Jiuyou's ability, I can't sense the power of your blood evil. ? "How did you hide it?"

I have to ask Blind Blind about this... Zhao Changhe feels that Blind Blind has never been so cautious as this time, and it seems that he really cares about Jiuyou. It is true that Jiuyou is very strong, and her ability has only revealed the tip of the iceberg just now. First she underestimated the enemy, and then she retreated temporarily as if she didn't want to make a fuss. I don't know how terrifying it would be if she used her full strength... But Zhao Changhe I feel like the blind man's concern may not be all because of his strength, but what about his appearance...

And he is extremely silent and has not spoken yet. You took advantage of Hong Ling's affection to bully her, but why didn't Suzaku keep quiet when it was her turn? Was it because Hong Ling was easy to bully? Apparently it was just because he didn’t want to talk more about Jiuyou.

Zhao Changhe thought for a while: "Now I wonder if she can scan and detect your breath everywhere with her consciousness. If she can do this, it will be useless for you to hide wherever you are, but it may expose our base."

Huangfu Qing said: "What should we do? Should I turn around and leave Chang'an? Then I won't do it."

Zhao Changhe grinned: "Of course it doesn't have to be like this. As the mother of the Han Dynasty..."

"What kind of mother!" Huangfu Qing pinched him fiercely: "It's the Queen Mother, and this has not been made public yet!"

"It doesn't matter if it's open or not now. The Four Symbols Sect doesn't act secretly like it did in the early years. Just say that Huangfu Qing is Suzaku and stop wearing a mask from now on. What can others do? Let's wear the mask on the bed to make it more interesting. …”

"Get lost." Huangfu Qing said angrily: "When I was in Kunlun under the identity of Huangfu Qing, Yuxu knew that we were together. If I were said to be Suzaku again, wouldn't Yuxu know that we were master and disciple competing for husband..."

Zhao Changhe was silent, and then pointed out: "Huangfu Qing's identity is the Queen Mother, which is known to the whole world. They already knew about mother and daughter... ouch..."

Huangfu Qing was so angry that he kicked him out of bed: "I think if the big man can't conquer all the places, the main reason is that you have ruined the reputation! What a dirty man!"

Zhao Changhe put his hands on his hands and hovered beside the bed, remaining calm and silent.

Huangfuqing looked at him suspended in amazement, and said nothing with a stinky face.

"Ahem." Zhao Changhe coughed dryly: "What I want to say is that you can openly send an envoy as a representative of the Han Dynasty. As an official envoy, even if they want to harm you, it will be difficult for them to do it in public and want to kill you. It would be better to besiege the whole city, that would be safer. Of course, don’t take off the mask. There is no reason for the Queen Mother to send an envoy, so let’s consider it as a state religion venerable. By the way, you can also plant Yuxu to let him go. People think he has something to do with us."

Huangfu Qing's eyes lit up: "That makes sense. Then I will leave the city now and enter the city as an official envoy."

"Find a reason for the mission."

“随便啦。”皇甫情玉手一挥：“就替咱家赵王求娶他们李家小姐好不好？意思就是你不送女儿给我们家赵王玩，我们就揍你。”

With the brain circuits of you women, you can only think of this kind of reason... Zhao Changhe rolled his eyes. A serious mission and marriage, regardless of whether the other party agrees or not, is indeed a reason, but if you think about it with your buttocks, you can understand the second part of the sentence. No matter what the outcome will be, this is just here to cause trouble.

It doesn't matter, all I want is to cause trouble. Real marriage is troublesome. Who would marry a force that colludes with the barbarians? The foundation of our foothold will be lost.

…………

Huangfu Qing got dressed and left the city, taking with him a few followers dressed as followers. For a formal mission, someone would have to deliver credentials first.

Zhao Changhe did not put on any other makeup, he still pretended to be Qin Jiu, and quietly left the Sixiang Sect secret place at night.

What he wants to meet this time is Li Ba, a gambling shop.

Sure enough, after entering the gambling house, it was still bustling, and there were still many people gambling all night long. And Li Ba didn't sleep either, still watching the scene.

Seeing "Qin Jiu" come in, Li Ba's eyes lit up and he greeted him with a smile: "Didn't this young master go out to play with Mr. Dai?"

Zhao Changhe smiled and said, "He plays his game, and I play mine."

Li Ba's eyes flashed, and he chuckled: "Then what do you want to play? Could it be me?"

Zhao Changhe said: "Look at our names being so similar, do Li Ba and Qin Jiu look like brothers and sisters?"

"Sisters and sisters are right." Li Ba said with a smile: "But there are not many people who are literate in the world. It is too common for people to name their children with numbers. If that were the case, we would have too many brothers and sisters."

"Yes." Zhao Changhe also laughed: "I traveled around the world and met many similar brothers, Chen Yi, Yuan San, Li Si, Sha Qi..."

Li Ba's smile disappeared.

Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "Add to that the eighty-nine and you and me, you see, except for the second and sixth, they are not good to hear. Is there still a five missing? Does the eighth mother know where the five is?"

Li Ba said calmly: "It's just a coincidence, why does it have to be five?"

Zhao Changhe said: "I just think Chang'an is so lively, it should be more uniform."

Li Ba looked him up and down for a long time, and suddenly said: "We can't all come together. He can't come here, and he also has other important matters."

Zhao Changhe said: "Is it because he killed Mr. Li that he can't come here?"

Li Ba smiled brilliantly: "Since you already know this, why do you ask me?"

"Of course I want to ask, what are his other important matters?"

"Across the Hexi Corridor, cut off the Guanlong Road." Li Ba smiled brightly: "He is a horse bandit, isn't he?"

Zhao Changhe said: "Then you still dare to use such a typical name here and risk your life?"

"I was originally a branch of the Li family, and I was called this name. You are stupid. I told you that there are people named after numbers everywhere in the world. How can there be anyone who would just look at him and think he is Ying Wu?" Li Baniang said. Looking at him like a fool: "You just happened to meet a dead rat. If I were a member of the Li family, I would arrest you now."

Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "It's not like I met a dead rat. It's too obvious that the Eighth Lady is pretending to be the Young Master. She looks like an intelligence collector."

Li Baniang knew that her actions were indeed easy to judge in the eyes of interested people, so she was too lazy to talk to him about it and whispered: "If you are from Zhao Changhe, then please convey that Fifth Brother and King Zhao have always been allies. This relationship has never changed. The reason why it is a little embarrassing now is because it involves the killing of Xia Chichi's father... It is said that Zhuque was also involved in this battle, but their relationship is different. Zhuque is Xia Chichi's master and his family is closed. It’s okay to talk, but it’s a bit awkward for us outsiders.”

Zhao Changhe nodded: "Understood."

Li Baniang said: "What the fifth brother means, if the Han side doesn't care about this, then we are still allies. The fifth brother is not involved in politics, and it is none of his business to rule the world. He is just a bandit, and he runs a gambling house. In order to collect information about the secret realm, it has nothing to do with other things. If he talks about his preference, of course he is leaning towards the big man. To put it bluntly, he has been investing in King Zhao from the beginning. That is what he would like to see if Zhao can replace Xia. It seems to be similar now. …What’s more, he has now killed Mr. Li and has become a mortal enemy of the Li family, and he is a natural ally with the big man.”

Zhao Changhe said: "This is why I came here to get straight to the point. Our relationship does not need to be too secretive. Banniang can also convey to Fifth Master that the big man does not care about the past, and everyone is still ally."

As he spoke, he took out a jade tablet to prove his identity.

Li Banniang sighed and smiled again: "That's good. In fact, in the current situation, everyone is naturally cooperating without communication. Don't look at the prosperity of Chang'an now. A large part of the factor is the Silk Road. Now it is blocked by the fifth brother, and Chang'an is also a headache. The most controversial issue in the court of Chang'an now is whether to go east to Hangu first, or go west to Yumen first, and clear the horse bandits before discussing the Central Plains."

Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "So that's it. Horse bandits are not easy to clear, they are really elusive, and the ruling power of the Li family is not yet at this level."

"But correspondingly, horse bandits are just horse bandits, they can only be used to harass trade routes, and they do not have much ability to capture cities. So it is impossible to expect to attack from both sides." Li Banniang said: "What the fifth master meant is that if the Han wants to fight a protracted war with Guanlong, it may be more advantageous."

Zhao Changhe was silent After a moment of chanting, he shook his head: "Let's talk about that for now. I came here to see if there is any news worth paying attention to here, especially whether Wu Ye himself is here... Since he is not here, I'd better ask about the special situation in Chang'an."

"There is only one special situation." Li Ba said solemnly: "Don't think that the Li family doesn't have much high-end military force. In fact, it is very strong... They brought back a 'young lady' from somewhere a few days ago. I don't know what she looks like. It's not a young lady. It's not an exaggeration to say that she is an ancestor. The whole Li family bows down to her. The strength of this young lady... Anyway, my scalp tingles when I see it."

"Brought back from outside?"

"Well, I said that I am a distant relative of the Li family. I have never seen this cousin in all these years. She became the young lady of the Li family inexplicably."

The figure of Jiuyou immediately appeared in Zhao Changhe's mind. Could it be her?

If it is her, with her ability to control people's hearts, or the ability to wake up people's ancestors from the ground, she can certainly be the young lady of the Li family at any time, or the ancestor.

Sure enough, the various games of the Li family are not necessarily tightrope walking, they have their own confidence. Or, the Li family is just Jiuyou's secular agent.

Uh wait... Zhao Changhe asked cautiously: "Does the Li family have other young ladies? The kind that are not married."

Li Ba shook his head: "If it is the direct line, they are all married, and there is only this one who is not married."

Zhao Changhe's expression became very strange.

Huangfu Qing mentioned it casually, obviously without thinking about how many daughters are not married. If this trend continues, is she asking the Li family to marry Jiuyou for her?

This matter caused a commotion.

But it was obviously too late to stop it. Just when he was contacting Li Ba Niang in the gambling house, the sky was already slightly bright, and a fast horse arrived in Chang'an: "I am the envoy of the Han Dynasty, and I have been ordered to deliver the letter of credence!"

Chang'an was shocked.

Li Boping, the head of the Li family, personally met the envoy in the hall, opened the letter of credence and took a look, his face turned green.

The letter clearly stated: "… I have specially sent the Four Elephants Sect's Suzaku to Chang'an. He will arrive soon. I want to marry the young lady of the Li family, to make peace with the Qin and Jin dynasties to stop the war, and to jointly plan to resist the Hu people."

Li Boping was dumbfounded.

Once this letter was passed on, the reputation of the Han Dynasty would be completely gained. The world would immediately know how the Han Dynasty had a big picture view, temporarily stopped the internal war, and jointly faced the outside world. After gaining all the people's hearts, they still wanted to put their Li family on the fire. The Han Dynasty was willing to stop the war and jointly face the outside world, but what about you? You are still hooking up with the Hu people, right? There are still a lot of Hu people in Chang'an City, right? How are you going to respond?

The most annoying thing is that Li Boping dared to bet that the Han Dynasty's letter was definitely not sincere. If Suzaku really came, he would definitely ask for a lot, forcing him to refuse, and give them the reputation of "refusing to cooperate" and "willing to be a running dog of the Hu people".

Look at the seal on the letter of credence, it may even be carved by someone on the spot, but as long as Zhuque comes, the person's presence is evidence, and it is meaningless to pick the letter of credence.

Forget it. If there is really a young lady in my family, it seems that it is no big deal to marry her as a sacrifice. It can be vague to public opinion, and who cares whether to fight or not.

The question is, is that a young lady in my family?

That's the ancestor!

You want to fuck my ancestor?

Li Boping quickly went to his backyard and reported to Jiuyou in sweat.

Jiuyou's white face turned livid.

In the void, a blind man laughed and rolled in the clouds: "You have this day too. Has no one reminded you not to get close to Zhao Changhe, or your reputation will become unfortunate."

Jiuyou did not hear the blind man's complaints, so naturally he could not respond. However, when the blind man said this, she forgot that the person closest to Zhao Changhe was herself, who had been following him longer and more closely than anyone else in the world.

This is a later story. Zhao Changhe, who was talking to Li Banniang at the scene, did not know that the envoy who delivered the letter was on the way. He was still asking Li Banniang for information: "Besides the special things about Miss Li, is there anything else?"

Li Banniang thought for a while: "A few days ago, the Hu people attacked the capital because of a rapid march and were ambushed and wiped out. After that, they were quiet for a while. The Li family also took this opportunity to support Buddhism and Taoism to get rid of the control of the Hu people. But the Hu people have begun to be domineering again recently. If I am not mistaken, it should be that Bo'e secretly entered Chang'an, and the Hu people in Chang'an began to have a backbone. If you have plans to assassinate Hu generals, it is recommended to put them on hold. If the so-called assassination hits Bo'e, it is not a joke."

In the early morning, Yue Fenghua knocked on the door of his apprentice's guest house: "Hongling, there is news from the Hu people."

"Squeak~" The door opened, and Yue Hongling, who had been meditating all night, looked at the rising sun with a refreshed spirit and smiled: "Where is it?"

"It's on Zhuque Street, Honglu Temple."

Yue Hongling smiled slightly. Is there any need to say that there are Hu people in Honglu Temple?

There are only two reasons for coming to say such nonsense. One is that after a night of preparation, the Hu people there have evacuated; the other is that they have laid a net for Yue Hongling to get in.

"Got it." Yue Hongling strode away: "Master, don't get involved in these, I will go and see for myself."

As soon as she entered Chang'an City, she heard about the Han envoy.

Yue Hongling was stunned and stood by the road to watch. Soon she saw Zhuque wearing a fire bird mask, a fiery red robe, and riding a horse into the city with several followers.

This was the first time Yue Hongling saw Zhuque.

As if sensing someone looking at her, Huangfu Qing turned her head and took a look. The eyes of a pair of red-clothed rivals met at the corner of the street, and there seemed to be a flash of lightning, and each of them was complicated and speechless.

There should be an additional chapter in the evening, but it’s hard to say whether it will be a long chapter or a small chapter.
