LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 84 Confrontation in the Court
Li Nuo did not enter the city with the large army, but turned around and left. He did this to show Zhen Nanbo and his party.
They did not belong to the same camp, but they gathered because of the fourth prince. Now that the fourth prince returned home safely, this small group will naturally disband.
As for Wu Xun, this department can have as little contact as possible.
It's not that he doubted that Uncle Zhennan would be uneasy about him or anything, it was always right to be cautious. The Yushi Yanguan's mouth is very sharp. If the label of clique and selfishness is taken off, it will be really hard to defend.
But now that he's in Chang'an, Li Nuo certainly wants to find out something...
Last year at Xinke's banquet, he offended Princess Jiang Qiuyue of Western Chu. This incident was like a stick in his throat and made him uncomfortable.
He suffered an unjust injustice, his future was ruined, and his soul came through. If he didn't have an "Ancient Compiled Golden Book" in his mind to help him practice, he would have been a pitiful guy in this life.
besides…
My wife's grandfather, who was a minister of the Ministry of Etiquette of the third rank, seemed to have taken the blame for being exiled to Lingnan. Naturally, I had to talk about this matter carefully, but I couldn't just get over it so casually.
The lady agreed, but he still hasn’t agreed!
He doesn't fight or grab, but what should belong to him should be his, so he should take it all back!
At first, the emperor stripped him of his title and demoted him to a jailer, but he did not force him to live in Chang'an. It was just that "he" was disheartened at the time, so he left Chang'an and returned to his hometown in Yuzhou.
So now it doesn't matter even if someone swaggers into Chang'an and is discovered, the court will at most punish him with dereliction of duty.
Li Nuo waited outside the city for a while, and the old horse demon finally arrived. His expression remained unchanged, he was not frightened, and he was not out of breath. Li Nuo was impressed by his endurance.
The old horse opened his mouth and asked flatteringly: "Sir, the matter is settled, do you want to go back to Yuzhou now? Let the little one carry you, and you can keep it for three days before returning to Yuzhou."
"Don't worry. Are you a demon from Daqingshan? You have always lived in the south, so you probably have never been to Chang'an. Today I will show you the splendor of Chang'an."
Li Nuo smiled calmly.
The old horse demon said coquettishly: "Sir, the little one is just a little wild monster. It's fine outside the city, but when you enter the city, the guards will definitely find it and they won't catch the little one and take him to the sky prison."
"That's right. The imperial court is very strict about checking unidentified people. There is something wrong with you not registering with the government. But if I accept you as a slave, it will be fine."
Li Nuo suddenly had an idea.
Well, the look he looked at Lao Ma seemed to have some evil intentions.
As an experienced horse demon, Lao Ma immediately weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
When you are enslaved, you lose your freedom, and even your own life depends on the master's thoughts. It is indeed more uncomfortable than death, but if the master is a demon slayer, it seems to be okay?
Is it better than being suppressed in the [Purgatory Tower] and suffering the horrific death penalty?
When he thought of [Purgatory Tower], Lao Ma shivered all over.
In this life, he really doesn't want to go in again.
Done!
Lao Ma simply acted like a soldier loyal to the commander, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "I am willing..."
Poof!
Seeing Lao Ma's nondescript appearance, Li Nuo broke into laughter.
You are proposing!
Lao Ma looked confused.
There was steam coming out of his big nostrils, and his little eyes were full of confusion.
Li Nuo finally regained his composure, and then pulled out the knife: "Okay, I'm going to chop you, just bear with it!"
Of course, this is not a horse-killing demon.
Instead, he bled the old horse and made him swear by the blood. This is a special magical power that the demon clan is born with.
Once you swear allegiance, your life is in your master's hands and you can never betray him. Otherwise, if the master has a thought, he will be devoured by the blood demon and his soul will fly away.
Of course, any demon with some ambition would regard it as a great shame and humiliation, and would rather die than make such a poisonous oath.
Therefore, there are really not many people in the world who can truly subdue a demon with a level of cultivation.
Of course, in front of the famous demon slayer, the [Fifth Grade Giant Strength Realm] horse demon's knees were still a little weak, so he just knelt down.
A cold light flashed.
There were two scars left on the horse's face. It looked similar to the demons in Chang'an who were branded with marks, so it could be considered that they could get away with it.
The old horse demon muttered a few words to the essence and blood, and then a wisp of soul floated out and merged into the essence and blood.
Li Nuo grasped it with five fingers, and the essence and blood merged into his body.
This is a very strange feeling, as if one thought can make this demonic horse fly away.
The old horse demon was so frightened that his whole body fell to the ground with a plop, trembling.
He could naturally feel Li Nuo's will.
"Ah ha, don't panic. I'm just a little curious. I might scare you."
Li Nuo comforted.
The old horse said sadly: "Master, I am too timid to be frightened by the little demon."
Li Nuo laughed loudly: "Get up and take you into the city, but you should still take the form of a beast. You are now a fierce horse with noble blood, do you understand?"
"As you command!"
The old horse demon showed his true form. It is more handsome and taller than the sweat-blooded BMW that was sent as tribute from the Western Regions. You can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary thing.
Li Nuo turned over and rode up, slowly walking into Chang'an City.
a year ago.
He once rode a tall horse and saw all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.
now.
This horse is so handsome, and the spring flowers still smile in the breeze.
People are completely different.
while walking.
Unknowingly, we arrived at Zhuque Street.
Here, of course, there is his memory.
Walking a little further forward is Prime Minister Cui's Mansion.
After passing Prime Minister Cui's Mansion and walking two more intersections, you will reach the Royal Palace.
Cui Wanwan...
This face has become very blurry, so blurry that Li Nuo can no longer remember whether the beauty mark is on the left eyebrow or the right eyebrow.
Destined but not separated.
Li Nuo will naturally not try to hook up with others again.
But in the palace, that woman... made Li Nuo miss her very much!
Jiang Qiuyue!
The former Princess of Xi Chu is now a concubine who has been relegated to the cold palace!
Because of this woman, his destiny has undergone earth-shaking changes!
He really wanted to find this woman and find out if she framed him on purpose!
Sighed.
Li Nuo pulled the reins and asked the old horse to turn around.
But at this time, spittle was flying in the court, and the big guys rolled up their sleeves. It was even more lively than the vegetable market.
The case of Prince Wu's Mansion is complicated and confusing...
The magistrate of Anji County died suddenly...
The fourth prince was assassinated several times...
…
If these cases are connected together, it would be terrible!
In Chang'an City, and even in the court, there must be a man with extraordinary skills who is leading all of this!
In the Jinluan Palace.
Civil and military personnel were divided into two teams.
The leader of the civil service is Prime Minister Cui, a great scholar in the cabinet.
The leader of the military attache is the general of Tiance Mansion and the emperor’s younger brother, King Xin Li Zaijun!
The emperor said solemnly: "Go to the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple...to thoroughly investigate the assassination of King Qin. In addition, Xuan Li Zi'an has come to Chang'an for an audience!"
"I obey the decree. Your Majesty, there is one more matter that needs to be decided by Your Majesty."
The Minister of Punishment came out and said respectfully.
"Yu Aiqing, please speak."
"Your Majesty, there have been a lot of lies in the prefecture below, saying that detaining demon criminals is too wasteful of manpower and material resources, so it is better to kill them on the spot."
Yu Shangshu said unhurriedly.
Cui Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly.
In fact, this matter was discussed a few years ago.
After all, this is the Central Plains, the territory of mankind. Most people can't figure it out. If you see a demon doing evil, you can just kill it. Why should you detain him first and wait for the Ministry of Punishments to issue a judgment document before processing?
Isn't this unnecessary?
