"Did you deliberately conflict with him? You know Sukhbalu's temper very well. You must have the opportunity to stop his recklessness in advance."

The saint nodded slowly: "I have analyzed that Sun Changming is a rapidly rising powerful official in the Wu Dynasty. His temperament is round on the outside and square on the inside. As long as he hates me, he will definitely not obey their emperor's orders and strive to become me. Husband-in-law, I am clearing the biggest obstacle for those princes."

The old woman nodded: "You have been smart since you were a child."

The saint was indifferent to such praise and asked instead: "Did those princes send someone here?"

The old woman smiled, and her smile looked even more sinister: "Of course. Dawu people always think they are smart and think they can cheat without being caught, hahaha."

"The four princes secretly sent their trusted ministers to express their admiration for the saint and offered generous terms. I didn't tell the saint one by one. Anyway, it was about the future queen's position. "

"Following the instructions of the Saint, I told each of them that the Saint also fell in love with their master, hehehe, and then revealed to them the contents of the assessment for selecting a son-in-law."

The Ice Saintess nodded: "You did a good job."

The old woman glanced at her and suddenly said sinisterly: "I just hope you don't forget that you are first a saint of the Thirty-sixth Division of Beiyuan, and then a disciple of Kuwadao Imperial Master."

The saint glanced at her coldly: "You don't need to remind me about this! This saint is going to start practicing, so please step back."

The old woman bowed and exited the room. The moment she turned around, a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth. The saint didn't really think that the chief would trust her completely, right?

The Saint has her own ideas, but these days, under the cover of the Saint's light, the old woman, one of the six "Witches" of the Thirty-Six Tribes of Beiyuan, is also successfully carrying out the secret orders of the great chief.

When the silly girl returned to her residence, she immediately started to wash the copper spoon carefully. Sun Changming looked on. This was a very ordinary spoon. It had been used for many years and left many ancient traces.

But Hanmei used this spoon to cook rice with the big pot that night. After cooking the first pot, she took it out, and she actually cooked half of the pot again! The three of them had dinner so full that Meng Yaya lay flat on the ground and groaned for a long time.

But the silly girl tried to pull her up: "Stop lying down, you will gain weight. Follow me to the backyard, we have very important things to do."

Meng Yaya and Sun Changming looked at Sun Changyan's round figure almost at the same time, and questions arose in their hearts: Gain weight?

The eldest brother stopped the third sister: "What are you doing in the backyard again?"

The backyard is full of weeds. The last time they came to the capital, they stayed in this courtyard. The courtyard was a prisoner's residence confiscated by Chaotian Division, and it had always been neglected. When Mr. Sun came last time, Ruan Sansheng hired someone to clean up the backyard temporarily, but he didn't have time to clean up the backyard. Han Mei caught a delicious little black snake in the backyard last time, so before leaving, Han Mei told Uncle Ruan Sansheng very seriously: Don't tidy up the backyard and continue to leave it empty.

Ruan Sansheng naturally didn't dare not listen.

This time Hanmei comes to the capital, she has been thinking about going treasure hunting in the backyard, maybe she can find a second little black snake. When the eldest brother asked, the silly girl replied seriously: "Looking for something delicious."

Meng Yaya immediately understood what she meant, her face turned pale with fright, and she shrank: "I won't go, I won't go. Miss, please spare me..."

As the elder brother and the head of the family with a very high status, Mr. Sun must of course uphold justice and stop the stupid sister from harming others. But Mr. Sun thought: "Yaya, Chang Yan, this is for your own good. In the future, when you become a great cultivator, you will always have to face all kinds of monsters and ghosts. If you are so timid, will you just run away when you encounter a snake spirit in the future?"

So the eldest brother grabbed Yaya from behind, held her collar, and handed her over to Hanmei smoothly. Amidst Meng Yaya's pitiful pleas, Hanmei dragged her to the deserted backyard.

Master Sun smiled and began to deal with official business. On the one hand, there are some important decisions made by Mengjiang Dusi and Dongyu Town Fusi, which require Mr. Sun's approval; on the other hand, there is the investigation of the Northern Saint by the Capital Chaotian Division.

Ruan Sansheng came in to report: "The Saint of the North Ice has always seemed very aloof, but some of the people around her are from different tribes in the Northern Plains. They must have their own selfish motives. These days, they have been secretly in contact with the four princes' men."

The information he submitted recorded these secret contacts in detail. Chaotiansi was really pervasive in the capital.

There were two other people in the room, Meng Hebei and Ma Qizhi. Ma Qizhi suddenly said: "I took some time to go back home and heard some news. The second prince and the Northern Saint admired each other. The second prince promised to be the future queen, and the Northern Saint promised to be thirty years old. The six departments fully support the second prince’s succession to the throne.”

The other three people looked at Ma Qizhi. He spread his hands and said, "Combined with the results of Brother Ruan's surveillance, isn't it clear what the truth is?"

Among all the people, only Meng Hebei was still puzzled: What is so obvious? Should I show the same enlightened expression as them? Otherwise, would I look out of place or... too stupid?

Sun Changming said: "Among the four princes, the second prince is not the most handsome, his mother's family is not the strongest, and his personal talent is not the highest. Why should the Saint of Beibing fall in love with him? The second prince does not know Beibing. The saint's subordinates also have contact with other princes, but from our perspective, it is really clear: the saint of Beibing has made the same promise to every prince, and maybe every prince will give Beibing The Saint’s promise is the same.”

Meng Hebei finally understood, and at the same time, he finally made a choice about his future position: he was indeed inferior to Ma Qizhi in this kind of reasoning and judgment, who was purely from the Chaotiansi faction, so he still had to develop in the direction of "fighting generals", as long as he When your realm is high, you can have anything.

Mr. Sun, on the other hand, secretly admired that the Saint of the North Ice was a female Sea King. There were four princes in this pond, and there might be other fish ponds.

"The Second Prince has reached an agreement with the Holy Lady of the North Ice. How do you know about such a confidential matter?" Lord Sun asked.

Ma Qizhi hesitated for a moment and said: "My father handed over the Zhongjing Town Fusi, but after so many years, in addition to the Zhongjing Town Fusi, he also has another intelligence network in his hands."

Sun Changming nodded and said, "Leave it to you?"

Ma Qizhi nodded, but Mr. Sun did not ask for this information network. It was the private property of Song Gongquan and was left to Ma Qizhi: "Use it well, don't let Mr. Song down."

By now, the inside story of the so-called "selection of a son-in-law" has gradually become clear. Master Sun and his sister do not like the Saint of the North Ice, and the Saint of the North Ice will not choose Sun Changming. Her target is a certain prince.

Mr. Sun looked outside. It was dark at night, and the half-curved moon hung in the northern sky. Mr. Sun said, "Brother Ruan, come with me."

In the capital, to the west of the imperial city is a large and lofty mansion. All the royal relatives and powerful relatives live here. In history, countless relatives have moved in when their power was at its peak. In this area, people will often leave in despair within three generations.

At the core of this area, there is a stern and lofty mansion. There is a plaque hanging high on the front door with the three characters "Prince's Mansion" written on it. This is the palace of Zhao Jizong, the eldest member of the royal family.

Dazong has a high status in the royal family and is responsible for handling the clan affairs of the royal family. He does not need to be responsible to the court. He only needs to satisfy the entire royal family. In many cases, he does not even need to be fully recognized by the emperor.

All the important officials in the court knew that there was an ancestor of the Seventh Realm sitting in the palace, but only Mr. Sun knew that there was another Seventh Realm in the royal family, His Highness Zhao Jizong.

Outsiders always think that Zhao Jizong is only in the Sixth Realm.

But Chaos Mandrill once told his boss that it had cooperated with a person from the Seventh Realm of the Human Race, and that person was Zhao Jizong! When it comes to matters like realm, Chaos Mandrill can never make a mistake.

It is this Da Zongzheng that Mr. Sun is going to visit late this night.

Knocked on the door of the British Prince's Mansion - of course the doorman wouldn't have a good look in the middle of the night, but when he heard that it was someone from Chaotiansi, the doorman didn't dare to neglect and informed him immediately.

Sun Changming and Ruan Sansheng waited in the concierge for half an hour. A man who looked like a butler came out and said, "Sir, please follow me." The butler carried a lantern in front and walked for a quarter of an hour. Sun Changming was in a side hall. , saw His Highness Da Zongzheng, whose beard and hair were all white.

"I've met His Highness. I really had no choice but to visit you late at night. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Zhao Jizong's attitude was lukewarm and he said: "If you have any questions, please tell me directly. My status as king is not suitable for having much contact with foreign ministers."

Sun Changming nodded, told the "deal" between the Holy Lady of the North Ice and the princes, and then said: "This matter involves the royal family, so it is not for us and other foreign ministers to comment on how to deal with disturbing the old highness late at night. , I will take my leave."

Zhao Jizong also waved his hand slightly: "Send off guests."

Ruan Sansheng followed Mr. Sun out, looked back at the deep courtyard of the Royal Palace, and asked, "That's it?" Mr. Sun smiled without saying a word, patted Ruan Sansheng on the shoulder: "I'm back."

Mr. Sun must work hard to muddy the waters. The transactions between the Arctic Saint and the princes will definitely not be tolerated within the royal family.

The next morning, Mr. Sun was shouted excitedly by silly girl: "Brother, there is something delicious today!" Mr. Sun yawned and asked casually: "What is delicious?"

"Yesterday, Meng Yaya and I were in the backyard and dug out a huge ant nest. The ant eggs inside were the size of fingers. They were white and tender. You could tell at a glance that they were very delicious. I had already cooked them in the morning. I'm just waiting for them. Brother, get up."

"Huh?" Sun Changming was really surprised. Did they really find good ingredients in the backyard? He got up and washed up quickly: "Come on, take me to see you."

As soon as Mr. Sun came out of his yard, he met Ruan Sansheng. He looked ashamed and was about to kneel down to apologize: "Sir, I..." Sun Changming supported him: "What's wrong?"

Ruan Sansheng whispered: "Miss discovered a colony of third-level monsters and spirit-devouring ants in the backyard..."

Sun Changming was stunned: "Third-level monster?"

The capital is the place where the dragon energy of the Great Wu Dynasty gathers. It is protected by layers of formations, but there are monsters inside? But Mr. Sun recalled, that little black snake... I didn't check it carefully at the time. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid it is also a monster. It should be the cub of a high-level monster - some powerful monsters are like ordinary monsters when they are young. Like a beast.

"Go and see..."

But Mr. Sun was grabbed by Han Mei: "Eat first. Food is the best thing in the world. Yaya and I have been waiting for you for a long time. Look, your belly is almost starving."

Lord Sun smiled fondly: "Okay, listen to my sister and eat first."

When he arrived at the kitchen, Mr. Sun saw that half of the kitchen was filled with white ant eggs the size of fingertips! The silly girl couldn't help but smile when she saw these delicious ingredients, and she was in a particularly good mood.

"So much?" Mr. Sun was surprised, and Han Mei said: "Yes, the harvest is really huge this time, enough for us to eat for a few days." Han Mei pulled her eldest brother to sit down, and used an old copper spoon to remove the food from the big pot. He filled a large bowl and gave it to his eldest brother first, and then he and Meng Yaya started eating.

Not to mention, this kind of unique and delicious ingredients tastes really good. Mr. Sun has a great appetite and eats more. Fortunately, Hanmei can cook a pot and a half now, otherwise the three of them would really not be enough...

"It's delicious!" The eldest brother praised it, and the silly girl became even happier.

Meng Yaya felt goosebumps all over her body when she thought about driving away those huge ants yesterday. They were so densely packed... At that time, I only dared to hide behind the lady, but the lady was so brave. She waved the big spoon, put her other hand on her waist, and stepped forward step by step, and actually scared away all the ants!

She is indeed the eldest sister of my life! Meng Yaya admired and praised in her heart.

Lord Sun took Ruan Sansheng to the backyard. The entire backyard and back garden were completely deserted. They had never been there before. When they came in, they found: "It seems that there is nothing unusual except for the weeds and shrubs that are growing extremely densely."

An important factor in the emergence of monsters is "evil energy", which means that they must be accompanied by the destruction of the domain. But the entire backyard was "clean" and there was no trace of evil.

"Where is the ant nest?" Master Sun asked, and Ruan Sansheng led the way: "I will take you there."

This house is very large, with the backyard and back garden connected together, covering about ten acres. Ruan Sansheng led Master Sun around a tall flower wall, and immediately saw a huge deep pit on the ground.

There are also shovels, hoes and the like thrown next to it. It is conceivable that after collecting high-end ingredients such as ant eggs, Hanmei was so excited that she even forgot to pack these tools.

This big pit has an area of ​​three to four feet, and it goes deeper, reaching ten feet! Although it has been dug beyond recognition, you can still see the winding "channels" of ant nests in the soil.

Ruan Sansheng was about to jump in immediately: "I'll go down and take a look." Sun Changming held him back, knowing there was a better way. Master Sun took out a guqin and gently plucked the strings.

After having his own domain, the usefulness of this treasure to Master Sun is greatly reduced. But when it comes to exploring the depths of the earth, Guqin is obviously even better.

Sound waves were emitted one after another, and then quickly fed back, creating a nearby thousands-foot underground structure in the guqin. Ruan Sansheng watched from the side as the adults' expressions gradually became serious, and he became increasingly uneasy: This courtyard was chosen at random. Is there really any problem?

When all the first round of sound waves were retracted, Lord Sun activated his spiritual energy again and sent out the second wave with all his strength. This time the sound waves penetrated even more powerfully, reaching three thousand feet underground!

Ruan Sansheng stood aside, holding his breath for fear of disturbing the adults.

After a full quarter of an hour, Sun Changming put away his guqin, shook his head slightly and said, "I... am a little careless." Ruan Sansheng hurriedly wanted to ask what happened, but Mr. Sun waved his hand and said: " Is there a black market place in the capital, or someone who knows the dark forces in the capital very well?"

Ruan Sansheng thought for a while and said: "There is someone who should know very well. I will take you there. If he dares not to say anything, don't blame me for being merciless to Chaotian Si!" When he said this, Ruan Sansheng's face had become fierce and vicious. , this is the true face of Chaotian Si Qianhu.

Ruan Sansheng took Mr. Sun out in casual clothes and walked to the most prosperous and lively place in the capital, where he found a "True Identification Building" selling treasures and antiques. After Ruan Sansheng entered, he waved his hand and helped the store owner close the door. He waved his hand and pulled a cabinet over to block the door.

There was a lot of porcelain and jade in the cabinet, and it fell over with a clanking sound. The clerk and the accountant behind the counter quickly grabbed it out: "Damn thing, can you afford to pay for it if it breaks... Oops, it turns out to be Mr. Ruan." "

Ruan Sansheng knocked on the counter unceremoniously: "Shut up! These things outside are all deceptive. Do you think I don't know? If you dare to talk any more, I will kill you!"

Although the shopkeeper and the clerks are polite, they don't seem to be very afraid of Ruan Sansheng: "Master Ruan, look at what you said, you have to spend money to buy these things, right?"

Ruan Sansheng stopped arguing with them and asked, "Where is Yang Qiyue?"

"The shopkeeper isn't here..." Before the accountant could finish speaking, Ruan Sansheng grabbed his throat and lifted him off the ground! Ruan Sansheng said sternly: "Don't forget the agreement between your Yuzhenlou and Chaotiansi! Do you really think Chaotiansi can't catch you?"

The expressions of several waiters changed and they shouted: "Hurry up, sir! We are polite to you just for the sake of Chaotiansi. Don't think that our Yuzhen Building is afraid of you. What you are doing is right." It works for others, but it doesn’t work for us at Yuzhen Tower..."

Before they could finish talking, a sharp shout suddenly came from upstairs: "Shut up!"

Ruan Sansheng stared at the stairs and shouted: "Yang Qiyue, get down here! Chaotiansi has something important to ask you!"

Waiting until an old man dressed like a rich man came down from upstairs, Ruan Sansheng threw aside the accountant who had turned his eyes from holding back. Then he kicked the entire counter to pieces, pointed at the waiters and said: "Everyone, break a leg and drive out of the capital, otherwise I guarantee that Yuzhen Tower will never do business again!"

Sun Changming stood behind him with his hands behind his back, his expression stern. Before he came, he had not expected that Yuzhenlou, the "little shopkeeper" responsible for all business within a radius of 1,500 miles around the capital, was hiding in a high-rise building in the most prosperous area of ​​​​the capital.

But there was an agreement between Chaotiansi and Yuzhenlou, and Master Sun was not surprised. No matter how powerful Yuzhenlou boasts to the outside world, or whether Yuzhenlou is really that powerful, without Chaotiansi's acquiescence, they would not be able to develop to the scale and strength they have today.

Yang Qiyue's expression changed and he said, "Sir Ruan, the people below are ignorant. Why should a big shot like you be as knowledgeable as them?"

Ruan Sansheng sneered: "I'm not a big shot, and I'm not criticizing the servants - I'm saving them and you, Yuzhenlou! Because there are real big shots who saw your Yuzhenlou's arrogance and domineering!"

Yang Qiyue immediately looked at Sun Changming behind him, recognized his appearance, and suddenly got excited and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down: "Yang Qiyue has no eyesight! Mr. Sun is here to welcome you, but you can't wait to welcome him from afar!"

Sun Changming was also full of anger at this time. He glanced at the accountant and the clerks with disgust and said, "Remember, we are soldiers and you are bandits! How many of you have enough heads to chop off Chaotiansi if you dare to despise them?"

If these people are really just ordinary treasure shop employees who are rude to Chaotian Si, Ruan Sansheng may embarrass them, but Master Sun will not say any more.

But a few minions in Yuzhen Tower dared to yell at Chaotian Si, and Mr. Sun couldn't tolerate it!

"Yes, yes, it's all because Yang is not strict with his subordinates. Our Yuzhenlou has always attached great importance to the agreement with Chaotiansi and never dared to violate it." Yang Qiyue nodded repeatedly. Yuzhenlou boasted very much. He is indeed extremely powerful, and as long as you have money, the Sixth Realm Venerable can be invited to you. They may not be afraid of some important court officials, and even dare to assassinate some high-ranking local officials, but when faced with a "currently managed" yamen like Chaotiansi, they really have to be honest.

Sun Changming walked upstairs first: "Come up, I have something to ask you."

Just when Yang Qiyue wanted to remind the adults that there was a magic circle restriction upstairs, he saw that the magic circle in the building that had spent a lot of money to hire top magicians to set up shattered into pieces in front of Mr. Sun and disappeared without a trace!

"..." Yang Qiyue swallowed back the words that came to his lips, and could only say in his heart: It's really amazing, no wonder he has such a bad reputation.

After going upstairs, Yang Qiyue personally poured tea from a jade pot and jade cup, but Mr. Sun was not in the mood to drink it: "I ask you, how has this capital's formation been penetrated?"

Yang Qiyue was stunned. As soon as he hesitated, he was severely interrupted by Mr. Sun: "If there is any concealment, the crime is the same as rebellion!"
