The next morning, everyone in Kaifeng got up early and started a busy day.

The most annoying person today should be Gongsun. There are several corpses and a set of skeletons in the house. Gongsun looks left and right. Where should I start?

Outside the door, Zhao Pu wandered in. The Ninth Prince ran into the palace last night to discuss with Zhao Zhen and didn't come back until dawn. Gongsun originally thought he would sleep a little longer, but he didn't expect to get up so early.

"So early?" Gongsun asked him, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"Qiao Guang should be here soon. He came by boat. Maybe the fleet will run into the fleet of the Seven Kingdoms." Zhao Pu continued to feel sleepy as he said, "I have to go to the dock to avoid anything happening."

"What could happen?" Gongsun was quite puzzled, thinking that it wouldn't happen, "There won't be a fight at the dock, right?"

"Usually not, because I'm afraid that the other party has already prepared to provoke." Zhao Pu shook his head, feeling that it was not safe.

"Long Qiaoguang is not that provocative..." Gongsun was quite optimistic, letting Zhao Pu relax.

"Then it depends on what's going on." Zhao Pu curled his lips, "Then the talkative guy is fine in other aspects, but he's afraid that it will be blamed on his master..."

Gongsun looked at Zhao Pu and inexplicably felt that his worries were completely justified. Long Qiaoguang, a twenty-four filial disciple, would most likely be provoked if the matter involved Youlian.

Zhao Pu was chatting with Gongsun here while waiting for news from the shadow guard to pick up his brother.

On the other side, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also wanted to go to the pier. After they saw each other and forgot about their worries, they had many questions to ask and came back to Jiuniang to find the list of wedding guests.

As a result, Jiuniang rummaged through the box and couldn't find it, so she thought it might be at Qiao Guang's place.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang simply waited to go there with Zhao Pu later, and first sat at the table to chat with Lin Yehuo and the others about the case.

The little fourth son recently learned some kind of performance formation from the Demon King. He drew a lot of symbols on the ground, took a few stones, and was throwing them around. He was mumbling something, looking at it, and even pointing.

Go, it seems that he is directing someone who cannot be seen to do things.

In fact, the fourth child is directing the same shark.

The shark is now about the same size as the fourth son, jumping up and down and running around according to the instructions of the fourth son. Of course... to outsiders, the fourth son is playing with himself.

There is a competition in Taixue today. The Demon King does not need to go to class. He wants to take Tianzun Yinhou to Nan'an Temple. Yao Changtian and Bailong Wang will take care of the children's football.

The old man walked into the yard and saw the little boy playing rock-paper-scissors with the little shark. The picture of the boy making rock-paper-scissors gestures in the air was weird.

Tianzun ducked forward, flashed past, and accurately picked up the shark.

The little fourth son raised his face, Tianzun hugged the same shark and asked, "Is it right to hug him?"

The fourth boy nodded.

Yin Hou went to the table to sit and drink tea with Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang.

Tianzun walked around behind Bai Yutang holding the shark in his hands, asking his apprentice to freeze the shark out.

The fifth master had no choice but to freeze the shark out, and the emperor was satisfied and held an ice dumpling to play with the fourth son.

The Silver Demon King looked at the little shark in Tianzun's arms in a daze, wondering why the scary shark became so cute?

Tianzun ran back to the table with Xiaosizi in hand and Xiaomerman in hand.

Yin Hou took the little shark over and poked its tail.

While everyone was chatting, Mr. Bao and the Grand Master came back from the court together. The two of them were quarreling while walking. It seemed that something had happened to the court.

"Alas." The Grand Master sighed as he sat down. Master Bao also shook his head, "Everything is really not going well."

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao looked at each other, what happened?

"Seeing that the little prince's 100-day banquet is coming soon." The adult shook his head, "but suddenly there were murders one after another..."

The grand master folded his hands and complained to Zhan Zhao, "Those old men in the court are watching your boss and asking him to solve the case within a time limit before the 100-day banquet!"

Zhan Zhao was surprised, "Isn't it just a few days?"

The Grand Master nodded, "Also, there have been rumors since early this morning that a corpse was dug up in Baekje Garden, and the dean of Yuhua Academy died suddenly at home... This is a sign of great misfortune!"

The Grand Master became more and more angry as he talked, "There are a few of them who are yin and yang, implying that my grandson is not blessed, and they also imply that the emperor is not virtuous."

Everyone was dumbfounded. So Zhao Zhen was very angry today, right?

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other silently. Fortunately, they hadn't told him yet and Wangyou didn't want to be a lieutenant at all, otherwise they would probably be really angry.

"Well, the Emperor is also in trouble." Mr. Bao shook his head, "People say that trouble never comes to the wife and children. Well, it's good. Not only the concubine and the prince were affected, but even the Queen Mother and Princess were not spared this time."

Everyone was a little puzzled.

"Even the Queen Mother dares to say that?" Zhan Zhaoxin asked, "Didn't Zhao Zhen go up and slap Ya in the mouth?"

"It's about that. Didn't the Queen Mother dream before that lotus blossomed on the dead tree, and then asked the princess to go to Wulian Mountain to pray?" the Grand Master said helplessly.

Everyone was muttering silently as they listened - wasn't it just that time, when I worshiped an evil god who spoke ill of evil, and that was the reason why all the things that happened after that happened.

"The tree split!"

"Ahem..."

With the Grand Master's words, both Tianzun and Yin Hou choked on their tea, and the Demon King silently raised his head to look at the clouds on the horizon.

"The tree is split?" Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both glanced at Tianzun and the others - was it you who did it?

The Demon King asked like a normal person, "How did it crack? Was it a crack, or was it the whole thing?"

"It is said that the whole tree was split, and most of the tree was broken and fell to the ground." The Grand Master continued to sigh, "The Queen Mother obviously has good intentions, but it turned out that there are many people making irresponsible remarks. What kind of inner palace is involved in politics? A princess with golden branches and jade leaves.

Being in public all day long..."

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang feel a little sorry for Zhao Zhen. These words are touching their hearts. Zhao Zhen is probably full of anger today.

"But don't worry too much." Mr. Bao seemed a little worried when he saw Zhan Zhao. He was probably thinking about solving the case within a time limit. "This is just the statement of someone with ulterior motives in the palace. There is no such discussion among the people."

"That's true." The Grand Master also said, "The Queen Mother and the Princess have always had a good reputation. I have sent people to investigate in the past few days. Recently, there are many people who are dissatisfied with the Duke of the Seven Kingdoms, and there are many people who intend to rebel against the Duke of the Seven Kingdoms.

It seems like someone deliberately spread the rumor."

"Is rebellion so serious?" Zhan Zhao was surprised.

Mr. Bao nodded, "To say that the old ministers in the court have been targeting the Queen Mother is actually not a day or two. Originally, the Queen Mother should be an important presence for the emperor to maintain the relationship with the old ministers. Unfortunately, it is not the current empress dowager who has the best friendship with the old ministers, but the civet cat exchanger back then.

The prince..."

"The senior ministers in the court also complained a lot." The Grand Master sighed, "I feel that the Queen Mother deliberately alienated them."

At this point, the fifth master, who had been watching the fourth son playing with stones, suddenly laughed.

Bai Yutang is usually not keen on talking about the power struggle in the DPRK, and he doesn't like to laugh when listening to serious things, unless it's really funny.

Everyone looked at him.

When the Fifth Master saw everyone looking at him, he said, "These old ministers all had their share of harming her back then, and there were already a lot of them without being held accountable. How can you blame the Queen Mother for not getting close to them because she is so shameless?"

The Lord and the Grand Master also nodded helplessly. This is indeed the truth. The reason why they have been targeting the Queen Mother is also related to the bad things these people did in the past.

"I don't know if I should reflect on it myself." Zhan Zhao muttered.

The Taishi was delighted and winked at Zhan Zhao, "Good people will reflect on themselves all the time. When bad people learn to reflect on themselves, won't they change for the better?"

Zhan Zhao complained about those veterans with a little disgust.

"Then since the old minister's connotation of the queen mother and princess does not last for a day or two, it is possible that this time it has nothing to do with the Duke of the Seven Kingdoms, right?" the demon king suddenly asked.

"Well……"

This made the Grand Master and Mr. Bao confused. In fact, they discussed it all the way when they came back. Although they were ready to prepare, the power of the Seven Kingdoms Dukes seemed to be weakening.

It seems that they are not as strong as they imagined... Maybe they really want to seek the position of Taiwei and return to the imperial city, but to say that they are plotting to rebel seems to be a bit far.

While they were chatting, Zhao Pu came over and waved to Zhan Zhao and the others. Long Qiaoguang was probably arriving soon.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang got up, and the fourth son also packed up and followed, saying that they would go to pick up Guang Guang together.

Silver Demon King took Tianzun Yinhou to Nan'an Temple, Lin Yehuo went to the stadium, and Yiyi was at the stadium today. Although Yao Changtian, White Dragon King and Mr. Lu were all there, Huofeng was still worried.

Zou Liang and Li Yan went to the Imperial City Army, and Zhao Pu probably had arrangements.

Mr. Bao was more concerned about the case and went to the widow's house to find Gongsun.

The grand master had nothing to do, so he asked Lin Yehuo, "Master, how about I go to the stadium with you to see what you are doing?"

"Oh?!" Huo Feng knew the Grand Master quite well and patted his belly, "Then let's go together!"

Everyone looked at Huofeng and Taishi, who were walking forward together with their sleeves fluttering, and felt that this combination was quite novel.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang took the hand of the fourth son and went to the dock with Zhao Pu. As soon as they went out, they happened to meet Wu Yifu.

Youlian had just gone to see friends with Jiuniang, and Jiuniang stayed to eat while he came back by himself.

"Where are you going?" Youlian asked.

Zhao Pu cheerfully said to pick up the talkative guy.

You Lian thought about it and realized that she hadn't seen her apprentice for a while, even though the Demon Palace had received a letter as thick as a good box of books.

"Let's go together." Uncle Fu followed them to the dock.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were both looking forward to it. When Long Qiaoguang got off the boat and saw Master picking him up, they would be so excited that they would burst into tears for three days and three nights.

Not only Zhan Zhao Bai Yu Tang, but You Lian also has a little bit of expectations. The apprentice is quite cute, buzzing like a little bee.

At this time, the first-class "little bee" was leading a fleet of ships to prepare to enter the dock. The Kaifeng Canal Wharf could not accommodate too many warships. This time He Yihang went back and asked him to bring more troops. The large troops and Ouyang Shao

After returning from the land expedition, Long Qiaoguang brought five large ships and three thousand soldiers and horses, and took the water route.

Naturally, Tang Xiaomei also came with her, bringing with her a Tang Sect ship carrying small bamboo bears.

The size of the fleet is not small, and it is preparing to enter the dock area from north to south.

Coincidentally, from south to north, there is also a fleet of the same size approaching.
