I have accumulated a lot of experience in cultivating immortality and picking up attributes!

Chapter 127 Night talk in the palace, Liu family in the capital, trip to Fuyao
As the night grew darker, the majestic imperial city seemed to have returned to its former tranquility. The Imperial Army soldiers filled the gaps with huge stones one after another. Civil and military officials walked out of the imperial city in preparation for the morning meeting tomorrow.

Thousands of palace lanterns lit up silently in the evening breeze.

Under the ginkgo tree that blocks out the sun, three burnt incense sticks are placed, and the back window of the bedroom next to it is open.

Lu Yunzhi changed out of her dragon robe and wore a crimson nightgown. She lay on her side on the pillow with her slim figure, staring blankly at the mottled shadows of the branches, and couldn't help but think about it in her mind:
"The tragedy of the Seven Kings Rebellion is still happening today. Lin Shihuang's defection to the Demon Sect is a bad omen."

If they want to stabilize the current situation, the strength of the Zhou court must be improved.

Chaotiansi is still too weak. A single devil from the Demon Sect has already defeated them. They must recruit stronger monks and win over powerful forces.

Now, although she is the head of a country, her words and deeds are still monitored by the Immortal Sect. She is restricted in whatever she wants to do. She does the emperor's work but does not have the emperor's power. She lives deep in Fengluan Palace, as if Bird in a cage.

She originally thought that with the support of the Immortal Sect, she would become an emperor who would leave a name in history and be praised by everyone.

It was later discovered that it was just a bubble dream shadow.

She was a treasonous and treasonous person who killed the king, failed to abide by women's ethics when proclaiming the emperor, and was the executioner of the clan. These rumors have always been with her.Because she can only carry these blames honestly.

When she really thought about it, she realized that the days when she first entered the palace and became a showgirl were indeed the most beautiful times. The good sisters of the past were willing to die and grow old.

She had never thought about getting rid of the shackles of the Infinite Heaven, because it was simply impossible.

With a little bit of cultivation, she can still stand proudly in the court, which is already the greatest luck.

This mature Queen doesn't want to worry about this, but facing the desolate and lonely hall, she can't help but feel a touch of sadness.

Just when she was lost in thought, she could faintly hear the sound of swords in the palace, not far away from the guest hall where guests were entertained.

It was like someone practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard, making a roar that broke through the air.

Lu Yunzhi, who was half asleep, raised his body slightly and released his consciousness to see what the movement was.

She has a little bit of cultivation, not much, but she can still protect herself.

Since I couldn't sleep anyway, I might as well go and see who was practicing the sword.

Lu Yunzhi put on a large python-patterned gauze blouse and walked slowly towards the garden behind the guest hall. All the guards and maids on duty saluted along the way.

At this time in the back garden.

Han Ye, who was temporarily staying in the guest hall, waved the red and purple spiritual sword in his hand, making every move very powerful. From time to time, he could see the shadows of fire dragons and purple unicorns.

This set of swordsmanship comes from a white gauze woman named Zhenshenjianfa.

Han Ye had practiced it many times, and it was not like he had never asked why the name of the sword technique was so random. He just excused it on the grounds that the woman was too lazy to think about it and couldn't think of it.

After completing a set of sword techniques, Han Ye put away his sword, stood tall and straight, and somehow sighed:

"This Lingbao Longxiao, which was found in the treasury, is domineering and arrogant even though it has 140 four formation inscriptions carved inside. It is extremely powerful. The sword is heavy, measuring three feet and seven feet, so it is still not easy to use."

After the candle flame of the accompanying sword broke, the Queen gave him the sword and selected a rare spiritual treasure from the treasury. It was considered an extremely precious magic weapon. The other party gave it to him without blinking an eye.

Longxiao is made of the red teeth of an adult dragon from the Dragon Valley and the scales of the exotic purple unicorn. It is extremely strong and there are basically no spiritual treasures that can touch it.

I tried again and again tonight, but it still wasn't smooth enough. It wasn't as simple as the candle flame, and it didn't have the feel of the fairy swords Cangbi and Hanbao. It was too heavy and overbearing.

Heavy doesn't mean that you can't pick it up, it's just as light as weight, but it just doesn't match your style when using it.

"It's so late and you're still practicing swordsmanship. It seems that your swordsmanship is not so strong for no reason."

In Han Ye's consciousness, a graceful and luxurious woman appeared.

He turned around, gently cupped his fists, and saluted:
"I have seen Her Majesty the Queen."

"Because I promised a person that I would practice my sword well, so naturally I don't dare to slack off on weekdays."

Lu Yunzhi, wearing a python-patterned robe, glanced at the courtyard with clean dead leaves and residual sword energy, and nodded slowly:
"It seems that person should be very important to you."

Her narrow eyebrows narrowed, she looked at the other party, and continued to ask: "Han Ye, I said you are from the Dragon Bird Sect, but in the past ten years, I have never heard of a person like you in Qingyun Prefecture."

Han Ye understood this very well and explained directly:

"I don't like the excitement and spend most of my time practicing hard in the sect. In fact, I am just a direct disciple."

Lu Yunzhi's phoenix eyes flickered and said: "Lin Shihuang joined the Dragon Bird Sect, so you are so familiar with each other? You have not tried to persuade him properly over the years, but you still let him enter the devil's path."

This incident was a pity for Han Ye, who sighed: "Brother Lin's position is different from mine. I have never persuaded him, and there is no need to persuade him. This is the path he has chosen."

"No one can change a person, I can only influence a person. Maybe I can't influence his revengeful mind after all."

"What did he say about me?"

Han Ye stared at Lu Yunzhi's plain phoenix eyes, and Feng Qingyun said calmly: "Regicide and rebellion, snake-hearted and ruthless."

Hearing these words, Lu Yunzhi was not angry, but asked gently: "Do you think so too?"

"Before meeting the Queen, maybe I would have thought this way, but now, since the Zhou Dynasty can be stable for ten years, there is a reason why there are loyal officials like Liang Lian who are unparalleled in the country."

"And the Queen is more beautiful than I thought."

"More what?"

"younger."

Han Ye added calmly.

"Hahaha!"

Lu Yunzhi laughed loudly, then raised the corners of her rosy lips, and said with picturesque eyebrows:

"Han Ye, you are a very interesting person."

Then her expression became serious and she asked: "Then do you know the purpose of the Demon Sect headed by Lin Shihuang to invade Longjing this time?"

Han Ye replied honestly: "I really don't know about this."

Lu Yunzhi turned sideways, looked at Mingyue, and said: "The world is like a chessboard, and people are like chess pieces. This time is just a test by the Demon Sect. On the surface, it is an invasion of Longjing, but in fact it is a test of the Nine Immortal Sects. If those outside the world are If you ignore it, they will inevitably go further."

Han Ye rolled his eyes slightly and asked in confusion: "If that's the case, then why doesn't the Immortal Sect launch a war to eradicate the Demon Sect?"

"The Great Wall of the North."

The Queen uttered four words.

Hearing this, Han Ye suddenly understood.

Compared to the human world, the Immortal Sect has more important things to do.

The rampant demon gate is a small matter, but the fall of the Great Wall is a big deal.

If the millions of monsters from the north were allowed to move south, it would cause hundreds of thousands of casualties in the Great Zhou territory in an instant. No matter whether they were monks or common people, no one would be spared.

Therefore, we cannot open the door to war internally.

Once turned on, the snowball will only get bigger and bigger.

Lu Yunzhi added: "The powerful men of the Immortal Sect are all stationed on the Great Wall in the north. They cannot put too much energy into the human world. This gives these guys an opportunity."

Han Ye recalled the piles of corpses on the city in the past few days and frowned: "So many people can die in just one trial."

Lu Yunzhi smiled slightly: "So, the world is like a chess game and people are like chess pieces. Maybe you and I are just two chess pieces among the common people."

Han Ye put Long Xiao into its sheath, clenched his fist and said: "Even if you are a chess piece, you must fight to the end and survive until the end. Only then can you be qualified to overturn the chess game and become the chess player."

After hearing this, Lu Yunzhi looked a little surprised and said with a smile: "Your Taoist heart is surprisingly tenacious." Then, he let out a hearty laugh and walked out of the yard, leaving behind a sentence:
"It's getting late, go to bed early."

"Remember to come to the banquet tomorrow."

After saying that, she left with satisfaction, but strangely didn't mention a word about the wooing.

Han Ye watched the graceful figure leave, spread his sword horizontally, and wiped the edge of the sword.

He glanced at the to-do list on the stone table.

Day two.

The feast held by Queen Zhou was to thank the monks who helped in many ways and the Taoist priests of the Immortal Sect for their contribution to the chaos in the capital last night.

Changle Palace is a place for eating and living. It is already packed with people. Palace lanterns can be seen everywhere, and palace ladies are walking in the corridors.

Han Ye handed over the jade card and entered. He was led to a table. He looked around and found that his seat was behind those of the Taoist priests.

He is even taller than the eldest princess of Jinwu Kingdom and the second-rank officials of Chaotian Division.

The particularity of this seat may be deeper than any conspiracy.

The first-class seats at the front are naturally reserved for the largest people.

The second rate is the people who need to be won over and the representatives of forces who need to cooperate.

The people he trusted the most could only be ranked fifth or sixth-rate at the back, and suffered a little more injustice.

This is the conclusion that Han Ye came to after a round of observation. The person who designed the seating ranking spent a lot of brainpower.

Many aristocratic families in the capital, even though they were at the bottom, did not forget to fawn over some of the higher-ranking disciples of Blessed Land Dongtian to show their favor.

Because sects are not unrelated to the human world, these wealthy families are often responsible for the secular affairs of individual sects, including offering gold and silver, mining spiritual veins, buying and selling goods, transporting resources and other trivial matters, and they are still skillful and experienced in doing so.

The sect entrusts the trivial matters to them and enjoys the fruits of their labor, while the disciples of the sect can obtain training quotas from the sect and enter the path of spiritual practice. It is a win-win situation for both.

The sounds of conversations, transmissions, and compliments can be heard in the middle.

Han Ye didn't want to pay attention to this, nor did he want to worry about it. He just rolled up his sleeves, sat up a little straighter, closed his eyes to rest, and didn't even look at the wine on the table, as if he didn't drink at all.

It's just that some things, if you are in this mountain, will definitely be affected by the mountains and rivers here.

"This Immortal looks extremely young. Last night, his sword shook Longjing and severely defeated Demon's ability, which was praised by many people. I don't know which Dongtian he studied under. I, the Liu family, will pay me a visit someday to pay tribute. "

A middle-aged hearty laughter came to Han Ye's ears.

He slowly opened his eyes and wanted to politely refuse, but he soon discovered that there was another person next to the smiling middle-aged man in brocade robes. He looked very familiar, his expression was quite reserved, and his figure was thinner than before in Langlang Village. It has changed a bit, but the fat face has not changed.

Han Ye was surprised to see his old friend and subconsciously spoke:

"master?"

Suddenly there were a lot more words in my mind, and I wanted to blurt out a lot of questions, such as Liu Lingqi, Liu Chengfeng, Wang Daniu's father, what was the situation in the capital, but I felt that it was not good to say it here. These words were spinning in my head and I couldn't get out of my mouth. .

Liu Xinglong stood there with a look of joy on his face, but the next second his lips moved, but he did not speak. He remained silent for a while, looking at where Han Ye was sitting.

His expression finally became respectful and he shouted:
"I have seen the fairy!"

This politeness and respect made Han Ye feel a little dazed, as if he could travel back in time to the day when he first came to Langlang Village a few years ago and the distress he had just sold himself.

"Chief Immortal, do you know each other?"

The leader, the majestic middle-aged man in brocade robe, saw the posture of the two people and asked curiously.

"I met you a few years ago."

Han Ye said with a somewhat complicated expression.

"I've actually seen it before, so why didn't you say anything just now? It caused us to become alienated from the immortals, and we thought it was because we were forgetful and neglectful!"

The middle-aged man in golden robe complained to Liu Xinglong, then turned to Han Ye and greeted him with a smile:

"I have heard of the Dragon Bird Sect's name for a long time. Are you a true disciple sent by the Dragon Bird Sect?"

As soon as this statement came out, many people looked over.

Han Ye's origin is undoubtedly something that many people are curious about.

"I, Han Ye, am just a direct disciple."

Han Ye looked around and said expressionlessly.

"So what if I am a direct disciple? With such strength and youth, it is only a matter of time before I become a true disciple!"

"Yes, yes, the Dragon Bird Sect is a high-class blessed place and should not be underestimated!"

"The talents of this generation of young heroes are getting higher and higher. In such a prosperous age, even if they are from the Demon Sect, what kind of waves can they make?"

Listening to the words of everyone present, Han Ye frowned slightly.

"The Longque Sect and the Liu Family in the capital are too far apart, so you should look elsewhere."

A cold voice intervened next to her ear, and with just one word, Bai Qiufu hit the middle-aged man in brocade robes, leaving him speechless.

Knowing the identity of the other party, she is the eldest princess of the Golden Crow Kingdom, I am afraid they will also win over this son. They really cannot afford to offend the Golden Crow Kingdom, so they can only retreat in despair.

"Since you don't like it, just refuse it. Why are you so distracted?"

Bai Qiufu was wearing a green shirt and long skirt. As a princess, she was polite and courteous in every word and deed. She had a noble and elegant temperament. Sitting next to Han Ye, she couldn't help but ask.

"Just thought of something."

Han Ye breathed a deep sigh of relief.

"It seems that you, like me, don't like this court either." Bai Qiufu could tell that he had something on his mind and was absent-minded, but she didn't point it out.

"As the envoy of the Golden Crow Kingdom, I have seen many high-ranking officials and emperors with my eyes, so I am naturally resistant to the field of interests."

Han Ye glanced at her and said, "As the sword holder of Hanpu, you didn't stay in Fuyao Prefecture. Why is that?"

Bai Qiufu cupped her cheeks and explained with a smile: "As long as it is recognized by the Fuyao Sword Palace and granted the status of sword holder, you do not have to stay in Fuyao Prefecture."

"Are all sword holders like you, traveling all over the world?"

Bai Qiufu shook her head: "It varies from person to person. I prefer traveling far away. Some sword holders may choose to stay in Fuyao Prefecture. Why, you seem to be very concerned about the sword holders."

She was careful and discovered that Han Ye paid special attention to Fuyao Prefecture.

"Just curious."

Han Ye said casually, his thoughts drifted away, and the smile of a woman in white appeared in his mind.

"It seems like you don't plan to stay here for a long time. Are you also planning to travel far away?"

Han Ye nodded: "I came to the capital to escort my old friend to Beijing for his appointment. Now that the crisis has been resolved and the people have been sent, it's time for me to leave."

"Where are you going?"

Bai Qiufu had some guesses in her mind and still asked.

"The Holy Land of Sword Cultivation, Fuyao Prefecture."
