After briefly exchanging their situations, Li Xuan and Ye Lao, who had reunited, followed the large group and continued to rush towards the capital.

The second-rank master sent by King Zheng had been repelled. Now they not only had the flower-clothed eunuch guarding them, but also Ye Lao, the stabilizing force, by their side, so they could completely relax.

Zhao Feng approached Li Xuan and Ye Lao and asked Li Xuan:

"Ah Xuan, will Chengche be okay?"

"He was always coughing up blood from time to time just now."

Zhao Feng used the breeze to support Monk Chengche and followed behind him.

The disciples of Fuhu Temple also frequently cast their concerns here.

Li Xuan then remembered that in order to urge them to hurry up, he told a white lie, saying that Monk Chengche would die if he couldn't get back to the capital.

Although he told Zhao Feng that Monk Chengche was fine before he left, it seemed that Zhao Feng was still worried.

"Don't worry, the monk is in good health."

"He is vomiting blood now because he used desperate means before. It's not a big problem. At most, he is detoxifying."

After Li Xuan finished the voice transmission, seeing that Zhao Feng was still worried, he had to jump on the monk Chengche and lie down.

In this way, Zhao Feng was indeed relieved.

"It's better this way, it's better this way..."

Zhao Feng nodded repeatedly and continued:

"If there is anything, you can take care of it immediately."

Zhao Feng said with a smile.

He also cared too much about the life and death of the monk Chengche, so he acted like this.

Old Ye on the side just smiled slightly, but didn't say anything.

After all, if you want to find out what happened in Fuhu Temple, Monk Chengche is the key, how can Zhao Feng not care about it.

If they rescue a dead person, they will fail and waste so much energy tonight.

With Li Xuan taking care of Monk Chengche, Zhao Feng can feel more at ease.

After all, if Li Xuan couldn't save someone, even Doctor Xue wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

Late at night, they rushed back to the capital.

With Zhao Feng, it was easy to open the city gate.

But they had such a big scene tonight, I think it would be impossible to hide it from King Zheng.

I wonder what King Zheng would feel if he knew that Fuhu Temple was rescued by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After they entered the city, they went to Ci'en Temple.

There were still a few young monks from Fuhu Temple there.

As a result, when they arrived here, they found that there were already eunuchs guarding this place, and there were also imperial guards guarding the surroundings.

It was obviously late at night, but the light of the torches illuminated this place like daylight.

Zhao Feng asked and found out that the people were sent by General Manager Shang.

General Manager Shang sent people to take the young monks away, but Master Chenghai refused to do anything, so they became like this now.

I guess Master Chenghai didn't know who to trust.

But since he promised Monk Chengche to take good care of the little monk of Fuhu Temple, there was no reason to hand him over easily.

And Zhao Feng's arrival also alarmed the people of Ci'en Temple.

How could they sleep well tonight with all this noise?

"Zhao, the chief steward!"

The tightly closed door of Ci'en Temple opened, and Master Chenghai hurried out with several disciples.

As soon as Master Chenghai came out, he saw Monk Chengche, who was unconscious, floating in the air.

"Senior Brother Chengche, he..."

Master Chenghai never expected that the person who had just said goodbye this morning would become like this in less than a day.

Chengche and he were both third-grade warriors. If the other party could hurt Chengche like this, then he could also deal with him in this way.

Thinking of this, Master Chenghai instantly understood many things and knew why Monk Chengche had been hesitating and not speaking clearly during his visit to Beijing.

Now it seems that he is afraid of implicating their Ci'en Temple.

Master Chenghai wanted to go forward and carefully check the condition of Monk Chengche, but was stopped by Zhao Feng.

"Master Chenghai, the disciples of Fuhu Temple are safe and sound, and Master Chengche is not in danger of life, but is temporarily unconscious."

"The situation is unclear now, I hope Master Chenghai can forgive me."

"Master Chengche and the disciples of Fuhu Temple, I have to take them back and let His Majesty decide."

When Master Chenghai heard this, he was stunned and frowned and asked:

"Why should the grudges in the rivers and lakes be heard by the gods?"

"The affairs of the rivers and lakes are the affairs of the rivers and lakes."

"This little matter should be solved by ourselves."

Master Chenghai asked politely.

"Master Chenghai, things are far from as simple as you think."

"The backstory of Fuhu Temple is not small and cannot be ignored."

"Master Chenghai, please let us protect the disciples of Fuhu Temple who are temporarily staying in Ci'en Temple."

"After all, we can't allocate so much manpower every day to protect the surroundings of Ci'en Temple."

Zhao Feng said, pointing to the eunuchs and imperial guards around Ci'en Temple.

Master Chenghai can naturally distinguish the good and bad words.

If Ci'en Temple cooperates, everything will be fine.

If it doesn't cooperate, it's hard to say where the blades of the eunuchs and imperial guards will point to.

Master Chenghai looked at Ye Lao, who had been silent beside Zhao Feng, and felt a little helpless.

"Can General Manager Zhao give me some time to think about it?"

Zhao Feng didn't make it difficult for Master Chenghai to ask, and nodded happily, and then said:

"They will withdraw tomorrow, and I hope you can think it over before then."

"It's late at night, so we won't disturb you anymore."

After Zhao Feng said this, he handed over his hands, turned around and led the people away.

"Manager Zhao, wait!"

Master Chenghai shouted from behind, but Zhao Feng just pretended not to hear.

"Since the godfather didn't take anyone by force, he should have other arrangements."

Zhao Feng thought to himself, looking at the guards around him, he already understood.

In the end, Master Chenghai could only watch Zhao Feng and others leave helplessly.

This is the capital. How dare they, the Jianghu people, openly disobey the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

It’s just that there simply aren’t enough hours in the day.

"Master, what should we do now?"

Yuan Xin, who came out with him, asked Master Chenghai.

"Now send someone to Chongfu Temple and ask Master Shanle to come over."

Master Chenghai frowned.

The incident happened suddenly, and he didn't know who to believe. He could only think of this one candidate.

After Monk Chengcheng came to the capital, it could be said that he only believed in himself and the master.

Now, Master Chenghai can only continue to trust the judgment of the person involved, Monk Chengche.

After a sleepless night, the major Buddhist temples in the capital also became chaotic.

On the other side, Li Xuan and others completed their mission tonight.

The moment they took Monk Chengcheng into the House of Internal Affairs, they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

The other Fuhu Temple disciples have arranged to find a place to settle down in Nanya in the Imperial City.

It was unrealistic to place so many people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so only monk Chengche was brought here. After all, this guy was the most important witness in Fuhu Temple.

After returning to the House of Internal Affairs and settling the unconscious monk Cheng Che, they soon met Manager Shang who was in charge of the palace.

"Mr. Ye, thank you for your hard work tonight."

As soon as Mr. Shang came up, he bowed to Mr. Ye.

"It's just a matter of duty. There's no need to be so polite. It's rare for me to move my muscles." Mr. Ye waved his hand and said it didn't matter.

"Feng'er, how is the situation tonight?" Manager Shang asked Zhao Feng.

Zhao Fengdang was about to report tonight's situation in detail, and Mr. Ye also added the details of the battle.

"The enemy is a second-grade fire attribute and is very powerful."

"If I'm not mistaken, he must be the Fire Demon from the Western Region back then."

There is no better distinguishing characteristic among second-grade warriors than Tao realm.

After fighting, Mr. Ye finally recognized the identity of the red-bearded old man.

"Fire Demon of the Western Region?"

Li Xuan murmured in his heart, hearing this name is not a good thing.

"It is said that the Fire Demon of the Western Regions has died a long time ago. Did he join Prince Zheng's command?" Manager Shang sighed, feeling a little troubled.

"There has been no news from this person for twenty or thirty years, right?"

"I didn't expect it to pop up again now."

Zhao Feng thought about it and suddenly realized that he had not heard this name for many years.

"Is this Western Region Fire Demon powerful?"

Li Xuan saw that several people were talking lively, so he also intervened.

In the end, Mr. Ye patiently introduced this person's life to Li Xuan:

"When this man was young, he was a famous young genius in the Western Regions. He attracted the attention of many people. Later, he even threatened to travel around the world and challenge the masters from all over the world."

"It's just that before he left the Western Region, he had an accident and disappeared for a while."

"People just thought that this genius from the Western Region died in an inconspicuous corner. After all, it took a long time, so they didn't take it too seriously."

"It was only three years later that when this person reappeared, he was already a master who was about to enter the upper third level. But by that time, his temperament had changed drastically and he committed several heinous murders, which shocked hundreds of countries in the Western Region."

"Later I heard that he had practiced magic and lost his mind, but his cultivation had greatly improved as a result."

"The last news is that several masters were dispatched from the Western Region to kill this person, and then there was no news about this person again."

Although Mr. Ye is old, his memory is quite good.

Manager Shang and Zhao Feng on the side also nodded, and they knew the same situation.

"I didn't expect that this fire demon from the Western Region not only survived, but now his cultivation level has been promoted to the second level."

"I just didn't expect that Prince Zheng would use this trump card that he had hidden for many years."

Manager Shang said worriedly.

"Godfather, it seems this matter is not simple." Zhao Feng also said from the side.

"That's right, godfather."

"What do you plan to do with the young novice monks at Ci'en Temple?"

In response to Zhao Feng's question, Manager Shang smiled slightly: "Be a bait to see how anxious our Prince Zheng is. If we can induce him to make mistakes in the capital, it would be great."

Zhao Feng understood immediately and knew that his previous guess was not wrong.

The guards around Ci'en Temple seem to be tight, but in fact they are sparse. They are more just for show, or even mainly for the sake of showing off in such a grand way.

Zhao Feng saw the magic inside at the gate of Ci'en Temple.

Li Xuan felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this.

"Are you going to use those little novices as bait?"

Manager Shang heard Li Xuan's emotions and immediately comforted him:

"Axuan, you don't have to worry too much. Ci'en Temple is not a vegetarian either."

"Besides, as long as Prince Zheng is not dizzy, he should not dare to do this."

"After all, this is the capital, and the several temples in the capital are not vegetarian."

Manager Shang paused and continued, "I want to see how much Prince Zheng cares about this matter."

"Even if they don't attack directly, they will definitely spy secretly, but the Zheng Wang Mansion has lost a lot of secret guards in recent times, so they will definitely be cautious."

"And it just so happens that the secret guard you helped us capture before, Xuan, confessed some things."

"So we need a chance to verify."

"That's it, meow." After listening to what Shang Zongguan said, Li Xuan was thoughtful and continued, "Then I'll help too, meow."

"Haha, as long as Xuan doesn't mind the hard work."

...

After settling Monk Chengche and the disciples of Fuhu Temple, Li Xuan left the palace.

He didn't just talk to Shang Zongguan just now, he really planned to take care of the affairs of those little monks.

But before that, Li Xuan had a place to go.

"It's just on the way, so it's not a long detour."

Li Xuan came to the flower street of the East Market after a long absence.

But even here, this time has passed the busiest time.

And now that the weather is cold, all the Qinglou have closed their doors and windows, and only occasionally can hear happy voices coming from inside.

Li Xuan came to Hu Yulou with familiarity and went straight to the top floor.

Hu Yulou was almost the same as before, and it was still lively at this time.

Li Xuan climbed to the top floor, then climbed in through the window, and felt a burst of heat.

Now the house is burning charcoal, which is much hotter than in summer.

But it was late at night, and Aimu didn't know where she went, and she was not in the room.

Li Xuan helped Aimu open the window for ventilation. It is a very dangerous behavior to burn charcoal with the doors and windows closed.

Then, Li Xuan turned on his perception and quickly found Aimu's trace.

He came to the backyard and found it much quieter.

On the white snow, naughty footprints were scattered.

Under the afterglow of the moonlight, the elf's figure danced.

"Hum hum hum~"

The girl's humming, accompanied by the dancing of the bells on her body, played a different dance music.

Compared with Aimu's previous dances, today's song is elegant and less vulgar.

But no matter what kind of dance it was, Ayimu danced very well.

Li Xuan did not interrupt rashly, but watched quietly from the side.

Ayimu seemed to be in a good mood today, otherwise she would not dance in the snow to amuse herself in the middle of the night.

"Hmm!"

Ayimu hummed the last sentence, shaking the bells on her body happily, as if imitating the cheers of the guests.

"Hehe, I danced really well!"

Ayimu raised her head proudly, laughing like a naughty little girl.

"Boasting is not a good habit."

The smile on Ayimu's face suddenly withdrew, and her hands tightly grasped the two bells hanging on her clothes, entering a defensive posture.

She had not noticed anyone around her before, and it was obvious that the other party's strength was far superior to her.

"Who is it?"

Ayimu asked coldly, but did not get any response.

At this time, a figure slowly walked out of the shadows.

Ayimu's eyes, which were originally full of vigilance, suddenly turned into surprise and joy.

"Master Xuan!"
