Nightwatcher Chapter 17: Heart Sword

Chapter 248 Heart Sword

"Little father-in-law, do you a favor to this officer and look up the court lady named "He'er"."

Xu Qi'an put down the booklet, turned his head and told Emperor Yuan Jing to send him to supervise his eunuch.

The **** left obediently.

After the person left, Xu Qi'an re-read the booklet, page after page, looking very carefully.

I really can’t stand the ancient account books...The writing is small, the strokes are too many, the eyes hurt when I see... It took Xu Qi'an an hour to carefully look at the income and expenditure for the entire year recording.

He closed the booklet, looked at the old **** in charge, and said, "Where is the latrine?"

The old **** replied: "Backyard."

Xu Qi'an immediately went to the latrine, but instead of taking out his 8=====D, he took out the fragments of the earth book and found out the Confucian version of the magic book given to him by the great scholars.

Tear off a page of Wang Qi technique and burn it out.

Two clear rays of clear light shot into his eyes, and then slowly receded.

After giving myself a look, Xu Qi'an returned to the side hall and asked the old **** calmly: "The official found that there is a problem with the booklet, and the father-in-law must give me an explanation."

"Sir, please speak." The old **** said calmly.

"In the thirty-two years of Yuanjing, there should be pill storage every day, right?"

"This...After four years, our family can't remember it." The old **** felt that the gong's eyes were introverted and deep, like hiding a whirlpool, making him very uncomfortable.

I didn’t lie..... Xu Qi’an continued to ask: “When checking the booklet, the official found that the income and expenditure records on February 10 and February 20 of that year were vacant, and there was no pill delivery for these few days. Coming?"

The old **** still shook his head, with a bitter face, "Return to your lord, our family also forgot about this."

I still didn’t lie, an old **** doesn’t have a magic weapon that can shield his vitality....When he gets older, he is useless and forgets his nature... Xu Qi’an returned the book to the old eunuch. Ordered:

"Give me the entry and exit records of the Royal Pharmacy within five days. I will arrange for someone to assist."

The so-called assistance is to supervise the old eunuch. Xu Qi'an had already decided on the candidate, and that was the **** sent by Emperor Yuan Jing to supervise him.

This little father-in-law is the eyeliner of Emperor Yuan Jing, and any progress he makes will be reported to Emperor Yuan Jing.

Lin'an leaned in Xu Qi'an's ear and whispered: "Do you suspect someone tore up the booklet?"

"When the old **** looked for the booklet, there was obvious dust on the cover, and there were a few fingerprints on it. The imprints were new. I dare to conclude that it will not exceed five days."

Great!

The Second Highness praised in his heart, and became more and more confident in Xu Qi'an.

At this moment, the little **** hurried to report, his face was very ugly, and he stopped talking.

"You go down first." Xu Qi'an sent the old **** who was in charge of the imperial pharmacy away.

The **** still didn't say anything, but took a careful look at Lin'an.

"I can't listen to this palace?" Lin'an was angry, and his eyebrows rose suddenly.

Sure enough, although the mounting is not very smart, there is no shortage of unruly princesses who are sick at all, but she prefers me... Xu Qi'an frowned and said, "Let’s talk."

The **** swallowed the saliva, brewed for a few seconds, and then whispered: "He'er is a person in the Empress Palace."

For a moment, there was dead silence in the side hall.

He'er is a person in the Queen's Palace. No wonder Huaiqing's mood changed when he heard He'er's name... In other words, the person who rescued Huang Xiaorou was the empress... .... In other words, Huang Xiaorou has been greatly favored by the queen.

And her role in this case is to murder the concubine and frame the vanguard of the prince...... The queen is in trouble.

"Huhu..."

While his thoughts were flashing, he heard the heavy breathing of Lin'an beside him.

To be bad.....

"I'm going to find my father."

Lin'an gritted his teeth and dropped a word, got up suddenly, and walked out.

Xu Qi'an quickly grabbed her hand and calmly said: "His Royal Highness, it is too early to make a conclusion."

"Isn't it obvious? He'er is the queen's person. Huang Xiaorou has been favored by the queen. The queen has always wanted to harm my prince brother so that her son can inherit the position of prince. The motivation is also sufficient, isn't it?" Lin'an Turning his head, glaring at each other:

"You are stopping me now, do you still have cherishment in your heart?"

She was referring to the "job-hopping". After all, Xu Qi'an was taken from Huaiqing.

Fuck, what you said sounds as if I ate Huaiqing and ate you again, and passed it to Emperor Yuan Jing, who would order me to be killed... Xu Qi'an glanced at the eunuch. Shen said:

"This matter involves the queen. Just find out a court lady, you will make a big fuss and impose the charge of killing the concubine and murdering the prince on the queen.

"What if it turns out that the queen was wronged afterwards?"

Bibi said loudly: "I don't care about me, the prince is my brother."

"Your Highness!" Xu Qi'an glared at her, accentuating her tone.

"...huh!" Lin'an tempered his temper and said angrily: "Then what do you say?"

People who are familiar with her character are not present, otherwise you will be surprised that the spooky second princess is so cute in front of a small gong.

"Continue to investigate, the princess will just watch the changes."

Lin'an gave another "hum", obviously not satisfied with the result, but didn't continue to play tricks.

Xu Qi'an turned his head to the **** and said: "Today's harvest, the little father-in-law must tell your majesty one to five to ten. However, remember to be simple, just talk about the case, and don't talk about other things."

I hope you can omit the interaction between Lin'an and I... Xu Qianxin said.

The little **** remembered the godfather's warning that day, and was immediately moved. Although Mrs. Xu had a bad temper, he was very kind in his heart and knew that he was worried about a small person like me.

"Master Xu, don't worry, the minion only talks about the case and won't talk too much." The **** said loudly.

Is this little father-in-law very prosperous... Xu Qi'an said with an "um", and then said: "Later you go to the father-in-law who manages the imperial pharmacy and ask for a list from him. Inside and out of the list of Royal Pharmacy. Then, you secretly check with the guard."

"Understood."

Leaving the imperial pharmacy at the beginning of noon (11:00), Lin'an said that he was going to have a meal with his mother and concubine, and cruelly abandoned the unmarried fiance.

Xu Qi'an had to eat with the eunuchs. The dining room was for the masters, and the "canteen" of the eunuchs and maids was called the small dining room.

Half of the journey, I suddenly heard someone shouting behind me: Mr. Xu...

Turning his head to look, a blue-robed Taoist priest hurried over and said with joy: "Master Xu, I finally found you."

He knew that Xu Qi'an would definitely go to the small dining room for dinner, and he deliberately wandered around, but he was caught.

Who can enter and leave the palace must be a Taoist priest of Lingbao Temple. Xu Qi'an arched his hands and said: "Daoist."

"Dare not to be," the Taoist priest approached, and respectfully returned a salute: "Master Xu, the first person, please."

"This..." Xu Qi'an hesitated.

Luo Yuheng was the woman Yuan Jing looked after. He was already entangled with his daughter. Don't let Yuan Jing emperor displeased because of "walking too close to the beautiful national teacher".

In addition, Luo Yuheng is a second-tier powerhouse. Xu Qi'an doesn't want to get too close to the top powerhouse who is unfamiliar. In case he suddenly discovers the existence of the monk Shenshu...Oh oh, It turns out that you Xu Qi'an is already in the shape of a monk!

Come on, seal back Sangbo. It will not be born for five hundred years. I will release it to you when there is a monk Xitian learns the scriptures.

The immortal gods and monks survive for five hundred years, of course, it’s fine, but what about Xu Qi’an? He couldn't borrow from heaven for another five hundred years.

"The teacher of the country is waiting for you and would like to invite you to have a meal." said the Taoist priest.

"Okay!" Xu Qi'an agreed.

It's mainly Luo Yuheng, this woman...she, she is so alluring.

........

Lingbaoguan Xu Qi'an is here for the second time. The last time he asked for a pill for Taoist Jinlian, he met Luo Yuheng.

The head of the human sect seemed to favor him very much. At that time, he said something very suggestive. Unfortunately, Xu Qi'an was a gentleman and ignored her suggestion.

Xu Qi'an was taken directly into a quiet room, with two futons, a table, a small stove next to it, and the word "Tao" with dragons and phoenix dancing on the wall.

The furnishings are extremely simple, and there is nothing superfluous.

Tao Tong brought a large bucket of vegetarian rice, mixed with black rice, corn, millet and other grains, and three dishes of vegetarian dishes.

"Master Xu, please take your time, Dao Shou will come over right away." Dao Tong stepped back respectfully.

Xu Qi'an didn't eat, looked at the two bowls and two pairs of chopsticks on the table, and nodded in satisfaction.

If this meal is for him to eat alone, then he will go back to the palace now.

"Squeak~"

The lattice door that had just been closed was pushed open again, and the female national teacher wearing a black Taoist robe walked in, holding a whisk in her arms, and the blue silk was simply tied with a Taoist hairpin, and she dropped a few strands of her forehead. charming.

A little cinnabar on the center of the eyebrows highlights the holiness of a fairy, making the two different charms strangely mixed.

"Guo Shi!" Xu Qi'an got up and arched his hands.

Luo Yuheng nodded and stretched out his hand to signal: "Master Xu, please have a meal."

"Guide teacher, please use eel."

The two took their seats, served a bowl of rice, and ate for themselves.

Xu Qi'an couldn't figure out the intention of the beautiful national teacher, so he didn't open his mouth, and occasionally looked at her while eating, which was pleasing to the eyes.

At first glance, this woman looks like a pink and tender twenty-year-old. Looking at it, she will think that she is a thirty-year-old Shui Ling young woman. When you pat your butt, she knows to change her position.

But after watching it for a long time, damn, this is clearly a beautiful mature woman in her early forties, that plump figure, and the unbearable style between her brows and eyes, she is simply a man killer.

Xu Qi'an has regained his feelings when he first met her-mother's friend, kind-hearted aunt, English teacher, etc.

"Is this woman cultivating the Dao, or the demon?" Xu Qi'an frowned secretly.

All the above illusions will appear, of course, it is not his reason, it must be the problem of the human practice method, which is confirmed by the endorsement of Taoist Jin Lian.

None of the three sects of heaven, earth and man are normal, and the earth sect is exhausted by merit, and it becomes a demon at every turn. I don't know what happened to the people, but they also have sequelae.

As for Tianzong, the way they walk is itself the biggest problem.

The sky is ruthless, and it will last forever. People are ruthless, what's the difference between them and dead things.

According to Xu Qi'an's understanding, the unity of man and nature is the rule of incarnation.

"I heard Dao Leader Jin Lian said that Mr. Xu had taken the bodily pill in Yunzhou?" Luo Yuheng said.

Dao Master Jin Lian told you why... Xu Qi'an was taken aback: "Yes."

"Pan Dao wants to borrow a bowl of essence and blood from Mr. Xu as a medicinal guide, to refine the pill to alleviate stubborn physical illness."

What stubborn disease needs my blood to be used as medicine? Xu Qi'an glanced at her and didn't say anything, but he was phrasing in his heart how to reject her.

For things like blood, in his previous life, he could only test his blood type, but in this world, he can perform many operations.

The most impressive thing is the magic killing technique of the Witch God Sect.

Luo Yuheng seemed to have expected his reaction early, took a chopsticks of rice, put it into the ruddy little mouth, and added unhurriedly: "This is Taoist Jin Lian's suggestion."

Xu Qi'an nodded, "I have to confirm."

Luo Yuheng nodded.

Xu Qi'an took out the fragments of the ground book in front of her, and just wanted to pass the book to inquire, remembering that he is now a dead person and cannot speak.

At this moment, Luo Yuheng looked at the door and said lightly: "He is here."

Xu Qi'an turned his head and saw an orange cat crouching on the threshold, with amber vertical pupils looking at them faintly.

"Dao Master, why are you here...wait, can't you enter the imperial city?"

The orange cat leaped to the tabletop with its tail erect, stepping on a soft and silent catwalk.

Xu Qi'an lightly slapped it open, "While eating, pay attention to cat hair."

The orange cat had to squat on the ground, hold his head up, and speak gently: "After the injury is healed, you can enter and leave the imperial city at will, but the imperial palace still cannot enter."

The strength of the Daoist is stronger than I thought... Xu Qi'an is not a rookie now, and wants to sneak into the imperial city silently, without mentioning Tier 4 less.

Of course, Takeo is not included here.

With the characteristics of the Wufu system, even a first-grade one cannot sneak into the imperial city silently, and most of it will be discovered.

Of course, if you are a first-rank martial artist, you can almost swipe the copy of "Dafeng Capital" alone.

"The essence and blood are..." Although Xu Qi'an trusts Daoist Jin Lian very much, he still hesitates.

It's like someone wants to use your computer. Even if you are a good friend or relative, you will resist it in your heart. After all, there are no wives with hundreds of G in the hard drive.

"Look at the medicinal properties of the bodily pill in your blood." Taoist Jin Lian glanced at Luo Yuheng first, and saw that she had no expression, and continued:

"The road of human cultivation is ups and downs. You have understood this. Luo Daoshou would be burnt by karma every month, suffering from seven emotions and six desires. Born-born pills can remove the old body and make people reborn. Temporarily relieve symptoms."

Xu Qi'an nodded slowly, and said boldly: "No wonder I think the national teacher has an extraordinary charm."

If Dao Master Jin Lian is not here, he would definitely not say that.

Tao Master Jin Lian responded: "Human Sect Taoism has been cultivated to a high and deep level, with the appearance of sentient beings, so that you can see the side that you most desire in your heart...I mean the aspect of love."

Speaking, the orange cat showed a humane smile: "What did you see?"

Luo Yuheng looked up without any expression and glanced at Xu Qi'an.

Xu Qi'an's expression suddenly freezes.

This reaction...Dao Jin Lian was taken aback, and immediately became interested, and asked: "You seem to have a deep feeling."

I thought I was black silk control, Yu Jie control, mature woman control, loli control, sister control, and finally found out that I was just pure lust.... I have never felt this sentence So profound....... Xu Qi'an gave a dry smile, and diverted the topic lightly:

"Since Jin Lian Dao Master is a middleman, I am naturally willing to do my best."

Luo Yuheng nodded with satisfaction, and said softly: "If you have any pill you want, you can just open it as a compensation for your essence and blood."

Tao Master Jin Lian pretended to speak before Xu Qi'an: "Don't worry, take your time to think that the favor of the Taoist leader is not something ordinary people can get."

Luo Yuheng glanced at the orange cat without smoke.

..........

Gyeongsu Palace.

Lin'an brought the guards to her mother's residence. She trot into the house, her red dress fluttered, and her mouth yelled: "Mother, concubine, concubine..."

In the room, Concubine Chen was secretly wiping her tears. Seeing her daughter running in, she quickly turned her face away and wiped her tears.

The bluffing Lin'an suddenly became quiet, and walked slowly to Chen Guifei, holding her hand, distress flashed in her charming peach eyes:

"Mother concubine, the prince brother will be okay, the clear one will be clear, don't cry."

She was in a bad mood a while ago, half of it was because of Xu Qi'an's death in duty, and the other half was the prince's experience, and Chen Guifei's tears all day long.

As a daughter, watching her mother depressed and weeping day by day, she feels very sad, but can do nothing.

The close-fitting maid standing on one side whispered: "In the past few days, the prince of the clan came to see the empress. They said that the ministers outside were discussing the establishment of another prince.

"After hearing this, the mother cried a lot and didn't eat much for two days."

Lin'an was furious, "Why are you talking about this group of visionless dogs?"

She angrily scolded her uncles for being dogs.

"Lin'an, don't talk nonsense." Concubine Chen held her daughter's small hand instead, with a sad expression: "Your prince brother is a concubine. Over the years, some people always say that he has an improper position, whether he is abolished, or the mother concubine. Don’t worry about it all day long."

These words made Lin'an feel angry. She knew that the mother concubine was referring to the harem lord who was staring at her.

The grand palace lady sighed: "It would be great if the truth of the case can be found out, but it has been so many days and there has been no progress."

The facts of the case are to be kept secret, Xu Qi'an emphasized to the two princesses several times.

But now, seeing his mother getting thinner and swollen eye sockets, Lin'an couldn't help it, and said loudly: "Who said there is no progress, Xu Qi'an has almost investigated the case."

Chen Guifei's eyes lit up and she stared straight at her daughter: "The case is about to be revealed? Well, that Xu Qi'an is really about to find out?"

Excited, he squeezed Lin'an's hand firmly.

"Mother concubine, you hurt me."

Since I have spoken, Biaobi no longer conceals, and said: "Mother concubine, the prince framed by the queen, must be her."

Chen Guifei's face changed drastically: "Lin'an, don't talk nonsense."

"Don't worry, mother and concubine, Lin'an has conclusive evidence..."

At the moment, she reported the case to Concubine Chen.

"Surely it was her. Back then, if she didn't obey women's way, how would your majesty put her into the cold palace and make my son the prince?" Chen Guifei burst into tears:

"Your Majesty has a kind heart, thinking about her old feelings did not abolish her, she is fine, after many years, she has been thinking about the position of prince again."

Concubine Chen's words sounded like a thunder in Lin'an's ears.

What did she hear?

The queen is not obedient to women? The father is going to be abolished?

When did this happen, why didn't she know.

The gentle queen but lacking a smile appeared in Lin'an's mind. Although she was very uncomfortable with her framing the prince's brother, Lin'an did not believe that she was an unruly woman.

However, after accepting the shocking news, many details that had not been paid attention to before were all explained. For example, the queen has always stayed simple and does not care about the harem.

For example, since Lin'an can remember, I haven't seen the queen smile. For another example, the queen is cold and indifferent to Huaiqing and the fourth prince, and she does not have the same affection for herself and the prince's brother.

"Mother concubine, what's the matter? The queen doesn't obey the woman's way...Who is that man." Lin'an excitedly grabbed Concubine Chen's hand and was furious.

As the father's most beloved daughter, when she heard this news, she was angered for granted.

"Don't, don't ask..." Chen Guifei knew that she had failed, and she shook her head with tears: "This matter is a taboo of your majesty, don't tell it to others."

..........

"I don't like to owe favors, Master Xu just say what you want." Luo Yuheng didn't plan to fulfill the wishful thinking of Taoist Jin Lian.

Auntie, I don't want to fight anymore... Xu Qi'an screamed in his heart.

As for the remuneration, he couldn't help looking at the orange cat for something he hadn't thought of for the time being, and asked for his opinion.

The orange cat pondered for a long time, and said: "The Sect ruled Kyushu with swordsmanship, so I might as well give you a swordsmanship."

"But I use a knife." Xu Qi'an reminded.

"Who said that swordsmanship can't be used with swords?" Jin Lian asked with a long smile.

That's right, as long as you extract the core essence and apply it to the sword technique, it's just like when I slash the sky and the earth, I can cooperate with the lion roar to defeat the enemy.

Xu Qi'an nodded slowly.

Luo Yuheng raised his hand and wiped it lightly on the table, and three thin books appeared.

The beautiful voice of the national teacher said: "I have three swordsmanship here, namely "Heart Sword", "Qi Sword", and "Yu Sword".

"The Heart Sword needs to be supplemented by Yuanshen cultivation, using spiritual power as the sharpening stone, and constantly sharpening the sword. It cannot cut the flesh, but specializes in the Yuanshen."

Hearing this, Xu Qi'an subconsciously looked at the orange cat.

The orange cat "cocked" with sharp claws, and said quietly: "Master Xu must not provoke."

Xu Qi'an immediately looked back.

Luo Yuheng continued: "The Qi Sword is the opposite of the Heart Sword. It is a first-class way of attacking and killing. If you practice to a high and deep place, the sword will be endless and unbreakable."

Xu Qi'an couldn't help but said: "Sword energy is three thousand miles, and one sword shines on nineteen states?"

Luo Yuheng couldn't help but look sideways, as if a beautiful eye of clear water stayed on Xu Qi'an for a long time, he praised: "It is said that the poetry of Xu adults is peerless. As expected, this sentence is heroic and dry. "

This is not what I said, it was said by a great writer who specializes in writing fees...

"As for the swordsmanship..." Luo Yuheng waved his hand gently, and the doors and windows opened in an instant, and a sword light burst out of her sleeves, roaring around the courtyard.

Sickness is like thunder, and sensitivity is like a fish.

Xu Qi'an admired: "Imperial swordsmanship is really an immortal means, so I choose Xinjian."

Luo Yuheng was taken aback for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay."

Although Yu Jianshu is fancy and cool, and its lethality is not low, Xu Qi'an feels that Xinjian is more suitable for him.

The reason is very simple. His slashing of the heavens and the earth is a very extreme knife technique: there is nothing in the world that is continuous, if there is, then run for your life.

Therefore, when he practiced, his first consideration was not to increase the means, but to perfect the world with a single blow.

After getting the roar of the Buddhist lion, this idea became more and more stable.

I have control skills, physical damage, and now the most lacking is the output of the soul field.

Luo Yuheng took back "Qi Jian" and "Yu Jian Shu", and pushed the "Heart Sword" to him, saying: "If you have any questions, you can come to Lingbao to find me. I can help you. Confused three times."

"Thank you Guoshi." Xu Qi'an sincerely thanked him.

Next, Luo Yuheng took out a mouthful of the jade bowl from his sleeve, pinched the jade bowl with his slender fingers, and pushed it in front of Xu Qi'an.

The bowl is not big, it is three times the teacup, Xu Qi'an feels a little more settled, he thought it was the big bowl Xu Lingyin used to eat.

After getting the blood, Luo Yuheng took advantage of the heat and ran to refine alchemy.

In the quiet room, only Orange Cat and Xu Qi'an are left.

"Dao Chang~IndoMTL.com~You help me block other people, I want to chat with Li Miaozhen privately."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Qi'an intends to tell No. 2 the news of his resurrection.

In response to Xu Qi'an's request, Chief Jinlian responded: "Haha."

"What's the problem?" Xu Qi'an frowned.

"Li Miaozhen said that he would come to the capital after the beginning of spring. The situation in Yunzhou right now is estimated to be waiting for the suppression of bandits to end. Anyway, she will come soon, so why rush for a while." said Taoist Jin Lian.

He also waited for Li Miaozhen to find out that after Xu Qi'an was resurrected, he furiously sought him out to disrupt the situation and ease the contradiction between the two outstanding disciples of heaven and man.

"That's right!" Xu Qi'an nodded.
