Da da da…
The sound of horse hooves from the front line rushed into the imperial capital, and urgent battle reports from three thousand miles away also entered the palace overnight.
But for everyone, this is just an ordinary winter night, because they do not know the battle report.
…
The next day.
The entire palace was unusually noisy, the guards were being moved around very frequently, and the sounds of moving items could be heard all the time.
In the afternoon, bronze carriages left the palace one after another in a hurry.
Xia Ji walked to the courtyard of the Sutra Pavilion and looked up. It was late winter in December, and the situation was changing. The situation was all destiny.
He spread his fingers, and a newly bloomed snowflake fell into his palm, but the snowflake did not melt at all. He waved his hand casually, and the snow drifted away again.
He had finished reading the "Future Maitreya Sutra" last night. In the morning, he gave the sutra to Xiao Su, and Xiao Su went to the mountains again.
The golden skill bead "Future Maitreya Zen" reacted with the other "Past Lantern Zen" and "Present Tathagata Zen", and the three merged into one, merging into a red skill bead - the Three Worlds Buddha Zen.
And this Zen has directly reached the ninth level.
Xia Ji didn't know what the red skill beads represented, but he was not weak anymore.
Because he only felt that his spiritual world had undergone qualitative changes and reached a new level. This was a state that had not been reached by the previous single "Tathagata Zen", "Randeng Zen" and "Maitreya Zen".
It is not an exaggeration to say that his spiritual world is just like the Buddha walking in the world.
He stood in this "palm"-sized world, with three huge Buddha statues appearing all over his body. The Buddha statues stood in the shape of a statue. They all bowed their eyebrows and bowed to him. They appeared in an instant, but then disappeared in an instant.
Xia Ji turned his head slightly.
The door was pushed open.
Eunuch Mei rushed in directly with a roll of imperial edict in his hand, and then said sharply: "Seventh Prince Xia Ji accepts the edict."
He glanced at the prince in the courtyard strangely. The prince was a little strange today, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He just said more solemnly: "Accept the order!"
Xia Ji turned around without bowing or kneeling. He looked at him calmly and said lightly: "Xuan."
Seeing his attitude, Eunuch Mei snorted angrily. Without saying much, he opened the imperial edict and read it directly: "The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven. The edict says that today the ghosts are invading our Central Plains. The seventh prince, Xia Ji, is specially granted the title of soldier of the world." Generalissimo, who guards the imperial city and resists foreigners, I admire this."
After Eunuch Mei finished reading, he wanted to see the prince's ecstatic expression, but he saw nothing.
Xia Ji asked: "Where is the Emperor?"
Mei Gonggong said: "Of course the emperor will not live in Weicheng."
Xia Ji asked again: "Where is the prince?"
Eunuch Mei has no scruples. Anyway, the emperor has left the imperial capital with important royal relatives. These royal families include the queen, concubine Wan, the third prince, the fifth prince, the princesses, etc. They should be together with the 50,000 people outside the city now. The armies met and headed south, so he said directly: "The prince died in battle."
Xia Ji asked again: "Where are the prince's 100,000 elite men?"
Eunuch Mei also risked his life. He was not afraid that the seventh prince understood that he was a scapegoat and said directly: "They are all dead."
Xia Ji asked: "How did you die?"
Eunuch Mei: "The ghosts invited three thousand frost giants to sneak attack on the snowy night, and the prince died in the battle."
"Ha ha ha ha… "
Xia Ji raised his head and laughed several times.
Times are all destiny.
It seems that his fate is not ordinary.
Moreover, when he sees Xia Xiaosu again, he can also join his sister's army and tell her, "Look, you said that the prince led an army of 100,000 to fight against the ghost side. He was covered in golden armor and was extremely powerful. The ministers in the court were unanimously optimistic about it and felt that This is the time to make immortal achievements, but in the end, you still say that you are not a poisonous milk?"
Thinking of Xia Xiaosu, he continued to ask: "Where is the Ninth Princess?"
Eunuch Mei: "Our family is not afraid to tell you the truth. The chief manager is waiting for the Ninth Princess. As soon as she comes back, she will be taken south to catch up with the army. After all, the Ninth Princess has agreed to a Turkic marriage."
Xia Ji asked again: "Where are my power seal and tiger talisman?"
Eunuch Mei said with a sharp smile: "The chief manager thought that the seventh prince would not need these things, so he took charge of it on his behalf. The prince is guarding the country, so I, the great merchant, will not lose face. What the seventh prince has to do is very simple. "
Xia Ji smiled and said: "How simple is it?"
Mei Gonggong said: "All you need to do is stand on the city wall and boost morale."
Xia Ji said: "Then take me to see the chief manager first."
Eunuch Mei said with a sharp smile: "We feel that the Seventh Prince still doesn't understand the situation."
Xia Jixiao asked: "What's the situation?"
Eunuch Mei didn't say the shameless "You're a scapegoat". After all, he was a member of the palace, so he had to keep his dignity when speaking. He just laughed at it, didn't say much anymore, and raised his hand. He directly captured the prince and didn't show him how powerful he was. He thought he was really the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses.
This claw caused waves of cold waves, and the bones between the bones showed a faint blue color, and there was even more sinister internal power in it.
Once caught by this claw, the sinister internal energy breaks into the body, which makes people unable to survive or die. When the time comes, won't the Seventh Prince be obedient
But Eunuch Mei is still quite strange. He has been with the seventh prince for two years, and he is just a loser who only accepts the situation and chants sutras and chants Buddha. But today... this prince is a bit strange.
Unspeakably strange.
But, there were no surprises.
His claws containing cold energy had already grasped the shoulder bones of the seventh prince.
With this grab, the Yin Han Qi directly found an outlet to vent, and crazily penetrated into the young man's body.
If there was no accident, the prince would scream in the next second.
But Eunuch Mei didn't hear any screams.
He laughed subconsciously: "We have been with you for two years, and we didn't know you were so stubborn."
This was the first time Xia Ji fought with someone after gaining these powers. He felt the power of this master in the palace, made an assessment in his heart, and then a scorching sun suddenly appeared on his shoulders, and the scorching Qi was directly grasped along the way. The five fingers touching his shoulder bones rushed out.
I saw that Eunuch Mei's five fingers were like the amount of water in a thin leather tube, which suddenly expanded several times.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
A bunch of explosions.
The powerful Nine Yang Qi melted the ice energy, shot into Mei Gonggong's meridians, and then directly exploded his meridians, as well as the blood vessels and skin and bones of his palms.
Eunuch Mei felt a heartbreaking pain spread throughout his body, and when he looked at his right hand, it turned out to be completely bloody and shattered.
He screamed miserably, his eyes wide open, and he felt so unbelievable. The severe pain in his body and the shock in his heart were mixed together, so that he forgot what to do and just followed his instinct and knelt on the ground.
Looking up again, he saw the seventh prince in front of him, whom he regarded as a loser, looking down at him.
The prince's face became extremely strange, and the former gentleness in his pupils was gone. When he opened his left hand and right hand, he saw nine scorching suns in a row. The sun shone with great pressure, making Eunuch Mei feel like he was drowning. One cannot breathe.
The eunuch was stunned and couldn't react for a moment.
Suddenly, a poem popped into his mind: Isn't the golden lin just a thing in the pond? It turns into a dragon when it encounters a storm.
