Martial Way of the Heavens

With Queen Wu's token, it was very convenient for Qin Chu to enter the inner courtyard of the palace. The guards let him go immediately after seeing the token.

The imperial palace covers an extremely large area and is like a palace city. Most people would get dizzy when entering. Qin Chu had been here once and still remembered the way, so he came to the palace where the queen was.

Seeing Qin Chu's token, the palace maid asked Qin Chu to wait, and then went to report it.

After a while, the palace maid came back and took Qin Chu to a bamboo forest in the inner courtyard of the palace.

There was an exquisite attic in the bamboo forest. In front of the attic, Empress Wu, wearing a golden skirt, was reading a classical book. When Qin Chu arrived, she put down the book and waved the palace maids and guards to go down.

After bowing slightly to Empress Wu and clasping his fists, Qin Chu stood aside and did not take the initiative to speak. Empress Wu asked him to come because she had something to say to him.

"Sit down, don't be formal!" Queen Wu said to Qin Chu.

Qin Chu hesitated for a moment and sat down opposite Queen Wu.

"To tell you the truth, I've been investigating you, but it's still blank, but you have real Tao Yun." Empress Wu kept looking at Qin Chu's eyes with her eyes that could see through people's hearts.

Qin Chu didn't know how to answer. He knew what was going on with Dao Yun. It was the reward for crossing the Road to Heaven.

"Don't know how to answer, or don't want to answer? But it doesn't matter. Since I promised Zhou Yuanshuo that he won't touch you, I won't touch you. Besides, I said I'm not an enemy, and I can tolerate talents." Seeing Qin After being silent at first, Empress Wu spoke.

"How can we be enemies? I will not participate in any royal disputes. It is true that Zhou Yuanshuo and I are friends, but Zhou Yuanshuo will not participate in the fight for the heirloom." Qin Chu made his position clear.

"Then Zhou Yuanshuo said he would protect Zhou Yuanxing!" Empress Wu drank a cup of tea, then pointed at the teapot, indicating that Qin Chu could pour it himself.

Qin Chu smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty Queen, the royal family is a behemoth. Just pick out any master and beat me into a scumbag, so my attitude is not important."

"Then what do I say is very important?" Queen Wu's attitude was very firm.

Qin Chu suddenly stopped. He didn't want to make any promises. Zhou Yuanshuo wanted to protect Zhou Yuanxing's safety. That was Zhou Yuanshuo's business and had nothing to do with him.

"Let's make a deal. Before you become the Great Sage, I can help you with two things. After you become the Great Sage, you can help Yuan Xing." Seeing that Qin Chu didn't speak, Queen Wu spoke again.

"This deal can't be done. My training period in the Void Spirit Tower is about to end. There is less than a year left. I will leave in one year." Qin Chu said after hesitating for a moment. He didn't want to lie. First of all, Empress Wu was not easy to deceive, and moreover, he did not want to do anything to deceive others.

"You will still have the training quota in Void Spirit Tower." Queen Wu smiled.

"Your Majesty, the queen wants to help me? Is this considered a favor? Forget it!" Qin Chu shook his head.

"I will not take things on myself that I did not do. Your place in the Void Spirit Tower is given to you by someone else and has nothing to do with me. In short, you still have the opportunity to practice in the Void Spirit Tower." Queen Wu said.

"The others want to give it to me... could it be Prince Shuo?" Qin Chu thought of Zhou Yuanshuo, but Zhou Yuanshuo said that Shangguan Wan'er was going to the Void Spirit Pagoda to practice for three years.

"No, you will know when the new quotas are issued. Will you do our deal? I am not trying to scare you. The water in the Great Zhou Imperial Capital is very deep. You will be tricked if you are not careful. I am right Your protection is very necessary." Queen Wu shook her head.

"If it doesn't violate morality or my principles as a human being, I can help Prince Yuan Xing." Qin Chu nodded.

"Deal, let's have tea!" Empress Wu smiled.

After drinking two cups of tea, Qin Chu was about to leave. He didn't expect that Queen Wu was looking for him because of Zhou Yuanxing. As for the deal, she was very sincere.

"Don't you have anything else to say? Don't you need any help?" Seeing Qin Chu leaving, Empress Wu asked.

"I have nothing to help. As for what I want to say, I think it's great to be the emperor and marry a beautiful woman like the queen." Turning around and looking at Queen Wu, Qin Chu ignored Queen Wu's frosty face and left directly. Well, women like to be praised for their beauty. Qin Chu felt that Queen Wu's anger was only superficial.

"You bastard!" Qin Chu left, and Empress Wu cursed. She thought Qin Chu was very strange, but strange people have Taoism in them.

There is no way to take away Tao Yun from this, but it is not impossible to learn from it, such as dual cultivation...

After returning to his mansion, Qin Chu felt that he would not suffer any loss in this deal with Empress Wu. He did not need to pay anything before becoming the Great Sage; after becoming the Great Sage, he might be very capable and it would be no big deal to help Zhou Yuanxing.

After chatting with Concubine Shi Qing for a while, Qin Chu went to rest. His rest was to meditate, polish his cultivation, relax his emotions, and prepare for the next wave of cultivation.

In Ling Su's mansion, Ling Su sat in the main seat and Bai Yunqiu knelt below.

"Are you sure you can work for me and do anything?" Ling Su trimmed her nails and thought about things in her mind.

"Yes, as long as you keep him away from me." Bai Yuqiu pointed at the shadow guard.

"Okay! Then you have to take the oath of heaven." Ling Su felt that Bai Yunqiu was still of some use. After all, he was a direct descendant of the Bai family.

Bai Yunqiu took the oath of heaven, and she knew that the situation was developing towards Yuan Haoling's plan.

"Get up! For the time being, you will be a maid in this mansion. You are not allowed to leave the mansion. In addition, Qin Chu will come to visit the mansion recently. When he comes, you must hide and not show your face. This is the elixir to restore your cultivation. "Ling Su made a request, and then gave Bai Yunqiu a bottle of elixir. Bai Yunqiu's Dantian was punched by the shadow guard. The injury was serious and he never recovered.

Bai Yunqiu stood up, bowed to Ling Su and left.

"Qianya, the plan can't go wrong. Yuan Haoling must be in place at any time, because we don't know when Qin Chu will come." Ling Su said after taking a sip of tea.

"My subordinates know that when Qin Chu comes, they will give him the Spring Fire Pill. What about Yuan Haoling? What if she doesn't submit?" Ling Qianya asked.

"Give it to him too, but don't take the Spring Fire Pill. She won't know anything after taking the Spring Fire Pill, so that's boring. You need to make her aware of what happened while she's awake. You prepare the pill. I remember there was a kind of divine drunkenness that could make people feel lustful and burn their bodies, but their limbs are weak. The most important thing is to have a clear mind." Ling Su's face was full of smiles. What she liked most was that she had everything under control. Feel. .

Yuan Haoling received Ling Su's order and moved into Ling Su's mansion. This was Ling Su's preparation for Qin Chu's visit at any time. As for her, she had to go back to the prince's mansion. She couldn't let Zhou Yuanzhen feel anything. , As for Yuan Haoling, she followed Ling Su's wishes and told Zhou Yuanzhen to return to Feixiangong to live for a while.

In Ling Su's mansion, Bai Yunqiu and Yuan Haoling met secretly, and Bai Yunqiu told Ling Su's plan.

"Shenxian Zui, it's a good thing. Just like me, take this Shenxian Zui." Ling Su took out a jade bottle and gave it to Bai Yunqiu.
