Immortality in the Great Qian Dynasty

Chapter 671 Powerlessness (Update 1)

Cao Jingyuan looked at Cao Jingchun: "Brother Wang, what's going on?"

Cao Jingchun sneered: "He is a meritorious minister who was released from the outside world. He returned to the palace, but... he was taken advantage of!"

The internal servants were sent abroad to supervise local officials and act as the emperor's eyes and ears.

If they have served a certain period of time in the local area or have made great achievements, they will be recalled to the palace and promoted in the inner court.

The stage of the chamberlain is in the inner court, not outside.

Although traveling abroad allows one to see different scenery and people, experience more worldly things, and see more worldly situations, it hinders promotion and excludes people from the center of power.

At the local level, the power of the chamberlain was reduced to the minimum. Even if no one bullied him, his words would not work.

This is to prevent the servants from relying on the imperial power to do evil.

Their role is only the eyes and ears of the emperor and the inner court. They only have the power to report, but not the right to make decisions.

Even if the power is reduced to this extent, it has a sufficient deterrent effect.

If an accident occurs to the chamberlain, the entire Taoist governor will be evacuated. Therefore, the chamberlain is extremely well protected and there is almost no accident.

What's more, once someone dies unexpectedly, it will be a provocation to the entire inner court and the imperial power, and the murderer will never be spared.

As an emperor, Cao Jingyuan was too lazy to bother with the trivial matters of being promoted to the imperial court.

As the commander of the palace guards, Cao Jingchun did not care if the servants returned to the inner court, but those who entered the palace had to do so in person.

He had an excellent memory, and he remembered it as soon as he saw the portrait.

Cao Jingyuan looked at Fakong curiously: "Master, can you see Concubine Hui's memory?"

Fakong said: "The short memory of a dozen breaths is left deep in the mind, and can be seen when the soul is transcended."

"That's it." Cao Jingyuan said with emotion: "As expected of a master, Concubine Hui can be saved by you, master, which is a great blessing among misfortunes."

The dharma is empty and tithes are combined.

This is not easy to say. No matter what, Concubine Xu is dead, and she is still said to be a great blessing. That is why the emperor dares to say this.

If I had to say it myself, Cao Jingchun's eyes could be cut like a knife.

Cao Jingchun's face was as gloomy as ice.

He originally thought it was a palace fight, but now it means that it is not that simple, and it is likely that external forces are involved.

This chamberlain came from outside, and he didn't know who he had come into contact with outside. He had ulterior motives and tried to create a conflict between himself and the emperor.

"Your Majesty, let's take this person down first and examine him carefully to find out what he is!" Cao Jingchun said slowly.

"Of course we have to take it down." Cao Jingyuan said: "Brother Wang, you will handle this matter. Check it out carefully. What a vicious heart!"

"Yes." Cao Jingchun clasped his fists.

Cao Jingyuan looked at Fakong: "Master, if it is convenient, I have some questions about Buddhist scriptures and I would like to ask you for help."

Fakong shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, this poor monk is really busy. He can only come here today. I hope your Majesty will forgive me."

"Oh——?" Cao Jingyuan was stunned.

Cao Jingchun looked at Fakong.

Fakong said: "I still have to go back to Shenjing, let's wait for another day."

"...That's fine." Cao Jingyuan nodded: "I have admired the master for a long time, but I have never had a chance to ask for advice."

Dharma Konghe Tithe: "That poor monk will say goodbye for now."

Cao Jingyuan watched Fakong and Ning Zhenzhen leave. It wasn't until they completely disappeared that he turned to look at Cao Jingchun.

Cao Jingchun said: "Brother Emperor, it's better to stay away from Master Fakong."

"oh--?"

Cao Jingchun said in a deep voice: "He possesses magical powers, especially clairvoyance and destiny, and can see the past and the future."

Even when he met Fa Kong, he was always on guard.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Cao Jingyuan said with a smile: "You can see what my future will look like and what big things will happen in the future."

Cao Jingchun said: "There are some things that should not be known to outsiders. After all, he is from Dayong, not from Dayong."

"That's true." Cao Jingyuan said: "Brother Wang, do you think we can find a way to poach him and become our Dayong man?"

Cao Jingchun shook his head: "He is a disciple of Daxue Mountain Vajra Temple, and his roots are in Daqian. How could he come to our Dayong."

"That's not necessarily the case." Cao Jingyuan said: "Even if we go to Dayong and Daqian, there's nothing we can do, right? Is it possible to deal with Jingang Temple directly? Wouldn't that offend Divine Monk Fakong?"

"By then, Daqian won't be afraid of offending him." Cao Jingchun said.

Cao Jingyuan shook his head: "He can build temples on both sides, both there and here."

"It's better to be careful with him." Cao Jingchun said.

Cao Jingyuan smiled and said: "Well, since you, brother Wang, advise to be careful with him, then listen to brother Wang and catch the murderer of Concubine Hui as soon as possible. I really..."

His face darkened.

Cao Jingchun said: "Brother, don't worry, I will never let him go!"

He waved, and a tall and burly middle-aged chamberlain approached: "Your Majesty."

"I think this person's name is Gu Sanquan. Not long after he returned to the palace, you went to capture him and don't let anyone get close to him."

"Yes." The middle-aged servant clasped his fists in response, turned around and strode away. The ground seemed to be shaking with every step he took.

Cao Jingyuan watched him leave and nodded with relief: "Old Xiong is getting stronger and stronger."

"His giant spirit magic skill is indeed unique." Cao Jingchun said: "He is born to practice this magic skill."

"With him here, I really feel at ease." Cao Jingyuan said with a smile: "With him watching over me, I feel much more peaceful when I sleep at night."

Cao Jingchun said: "He is doing things safely, and I can rest assured."

——

Half an hour later, in the Imperial Garden, Cao Jingchun and Cao Jingyuan were playing chess. Xiong Jin, who was as sturdy as a bear, strode in, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Prince."

"Did you catch him?"

"... He ran away." Xiong Jin blushed and gritted his teeth and said: "I'm a step too late. He must have just run away for a short time."

"Didn't you chase him?"

"He is proficient in the art of tracking and leaves no trace." Xiong Jin looked ashamed: "The inner court's worshippers couldn't catch him."

"So, he killed Concubine Hui and then escaped?" Cao Jingchun said indifferently: "Is that right?"

"I am incompetent!" Xiong Jin lowered his head.

Cao Jingyuan's face was not good either, and he stared at Xiong Jin coldly.

Xiong Jin lowered his head and was speechless.

Cao Jingyuan shook his head, and there was nothing he could do.

Xiong Jin was ordered to catch the man, and he couldn't blame him for being a step late. He could only blame Master Fakong for inviting him too late.

If Master Fakong had been invited earlier, it would have been different.

"What should we do, my brother?" Cao Jingyuan put down the chess piece and said helplessly, "I can't catch him."

Cao Jingchun's face was gloomy, and he said slowly, "My brother, I will go there myself."

"My brother..."

"There are several people in my mansion who are good at tracking. Let's see if it works."

"If it doesn't work..."

"...Then go find the monk Fakong." Cao Jingchun said in a deep voice.

No matter how good Gu Sanquan is at tracking, he can't stop Fakong's magic.

"Okay." Cao Jingyuan said, "We must not let him escape. If we don't catch him, I don't know how many people will be wrongly accused."

In order to catch the murderer, many people have been caught in the harem. Now it seems that it was all misunderstandings and the wrong person was caught.

But if it weren't for the monk Fakong who drew this portrait, I'm afraid those who were caught would have to suffer a lot, and many would even die unjustly.

He felt angry just thinking about it.

This murderer is too vicious.

As for the dead Concubine Hui, he was not too sad.

He was good to Cao Jingchun because of brotherly love.

He was not so fond of Concubine Hui, but he tolerated her for Cao Jingchun's sake.

Unfortunately, Concubine Hui did not know her limits. She did not change after being reprimanded by Cao Jingchun several times. She was arrogant and dominated the palace.

After a long time, he was a little unhappy and annoyed.

But for Cao Jingchun's sake, he could not be too harsh, so he could only be a little cold, but it was useless.

She was like this by nature, and there was no way to change it.

Cao Jingyuan was completely disappointed and cooled down.

So he was not too sad about Concubine Hui's death, but just pretended.

What really made him angry was that someone dared to kill people in the harem, dared to kill his concubine.

This was a great humiliation to himself.

As an emperor, he could not protect his woman. What was the taste of being an emperor?

In such anger, he was ruthless and arrested all the suspects in the harem. He wanted to interrogate them one by one. He did not believe that he could not find out.

Anyway, no one broke into the harem, so it must be them who did it. The murderer is hiding in it, and he must be found.

Never expected that it was an outsider who did it.

He has already understood that the matter is not that simple. This is to deliberately provoke the relationship between him and his brother.

To make the brothers have a rift.

It's a pity that these people don't know that the relationship between him and his brother can't be destroyed by outsiders!

——

Fakong stood in an elegant courtyard with his hands behind his back.

This elegant courtyard is located in the Jade Butterfly Sect. It is the best courtyard of the Jade Butterfly Sect and is prepared for the most distinguished guests.

Fakong stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes slightly golden, and saw the situation in the outer courtyard of the Vajra Temple and Leng Feiqiong had arrived.

He shook his head, but Leng Feiqiong was very active.

He then looked at the Vajra Courtyard in Yunjing and found that the incense in the Vajra Courtyard was prosperous, and the women were chanting scriptures.

But they no longer cast Buddhist mantras, they just chanted scriptures.

Even so, pilgrims still came in an endless stream, queuing in a long line, looking at the situation that was not inferior to the outer courtyard of the Vajra Temple.

Fakong smiled and shook his head.

This is because someone secretly promoted the Vajra Courtyard and stopped suppressing it. The reputation of the Vajra Courtyard has been raised.

Seeing that Meng Qinghe and the others have improved their cultivation, they are already able to deal with it.

Moreover, the faith is still increasing continuously. Yunjing is known as the capital of all gods. One of its most obvious characteristics is that it is easy to believe.

Once the supernatural power is displayed, they will quickly strengthen their faith and provide themselves with endless faith.

Ning Zhenzhen came in lightly, and her face was replaced with her original face. She smiled and said, "The sect leader is so happy."

The sect leader of the Jade Butterfly Sect wanted to kneel down and thank her.

She had received news that the two concubines of the Jade Butterfly Sect and Sun Peiyu were captured. They had almost no chance, but were saved by Fakong.

Fakong smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, sect leader. I will go back and come back tomorrow."

"What about Prince Chun's Mansion..."

"Just say I will come tomorrow."

"Okay." Ning Zhenzhen smiled and said, "Suppress their arrogance?"

Fakong smiled.

Ning Zhenzhen really understands himself.

Gu Sanquan, who attacked this time, is a powerful person with extraordinary skills. The martial arts masters can't do anything to him.

It can be concluded that he is the top master of Dayun.

The extraordinary people of Dayun are indeed better.
