Nine Turns of Nirvana

Chapter 277 Imperial Master



The land of Yunxiang, in Qianwu City.

It was already midnight. Wang He, the commander of the guards, hurriedly walked into a side hall of Zhengyang Palace. In the past six months, the third prince's cultivation had improved rapidly. In order to seek a more efficient cultivation environment, he specially set up a The spirit-gathering formation moved the daily practice here.

And tonight is no exception. His Royal Highness the Third Prince is practicing in this side hall, and his practice seems to have reached a critical juncture. Before officially starting, he specifically asked not to disturb him if there is no urgent matter. .

However, this time Wang He could no longer take heed of the third prince's instructions and barged directly into the side hall.

"Your Highness, Third Prince, something big has happened!"

The third prince was sitting in the middle of the side hall, practicing his martial arts and meditating. Hearing this, he slowly opened his eyes, and after slowly exhaling a breath of Qi, he asked, "What happened?"

"I heard that a long-lit lamp over there in the grand master's hall suddenly went out. It should be that a certain grand master suddenly died!"

The Grandmaster's Hall is enshrined with ever-lasting lamps, which are lit with the Grandmaster's natal soul. Each lamp has a natal connection with the Grandmaster himself. If a certain lamp suddenly goes out, there is only one possibility. , which means that this great master has fallen.

The third prince's calm face finally changed, and his brows furrowed: "The death of the Grand Master? Could it be that the war on the northern front is tense?"

Wang He shook his head and his voice became a little harsh: "There are only rumors about this matter at present. The specific situation is not known to my subordinates... However, it is said that the Imperial Master has made some calculations about this matter and said that It should be in the southwest direction..."

"Southwest?"

The third prince was slightly startled. The southwest direction was exactly where Lujiang County was located, and he also knew that there was only one great master in this direction, and that was Gao Zhengbang, who came out of the mountain at his request.

"Is it Gao Zhengbang? But...how is this possible!"

The third prince's eyes widened in astonishment. In fact, in his opinion, no matter what kind of chaos happened in Lujiang County, it was just a farce in a small fish pond. As for Gao Zhengbang, the master of Wusheng, The trump card in his hand is a dragon-like figure.

And the majestic dragon died in a small fish pond. How is this possible?

What's the difference between this and a capsized boat in the gutter?

"Now that things have come to this, what else is impossible!"

Suddenly, a powerful voice came from outside. The voice came from far to near, and in the blink of an eye, it had arrived at the door of the side hall.

Wang He was startled and quickly drew his sword, trying to defend himself against the unexpected visitor. However, when he saw the opponent's appearance clearly, he quickly stopped the sword in his hand and hurriedly retracted the sword. scabbard.

"Tai... Taifu, you are disrespectful of your humble position!" Wang He said nonchalantly.

The third prince was also surprised and said in amazement: "Taifu Zhou, why did you come here suddenly?"

The person who came was none other than Grand Tutor Zhou Zunian. He was not only the emperor's tutor responsible for imparting teachings to His Highness the Third Prince, but he was also the uncle of the state. The Third Prince's biological mother, Queen Zhou, was the biological sister of one of his compatriots. Therefore, he naturally became the third prince's most powerful supporter. It can be said that the many supporters of the third prince's line are led by him.

"Hmph! If I don't come over, I don't know

Zhou Zunian snorted heavily. Not only did he not even look at Wang He, he was also very polite to His Highness the Third Prince.

Even after being rebuked like this, the third prince did not dare to have any dissatisfaction, but humbly asked for advice: "Why did the master say this?"

Zhou Zunian directly took out a talisman message and threw it in front of the third prince: "See for yourself!"

The third prince picked up the communication talisman from the ground without saying a word. After a quick glance, his expression suddenly changed.

"What? Gao Zhengbang lost to that scarer and was actually split in half by the opponent's knife?"

"The Prince of Wuyang County actually dared to have an affair with Scar Guest? Not only did he seize control of the Magic Armor Corps, but he also ordered the pursuit of Lin Youlong?"

"What on earth are they trying to do? Could it be that they are trying to rebel!"

It turned out that this message was sent back by Lin Youlong, the commander of the Forbidden Army, on the way to escape. Every piece of the news mentioned above shocked the third prince.

He never thought that the situation in Jiangzuo would be so collapsed, and it had become a huge quagmire.

"Rebellion and rebellion?"

Zhou Zunian sneered and said: "My Third Prince, you are not a monarch yet? They just have trouble with you, so how can you talk about rebellion and rebellion?"

"What's more, tonight, a censor official has written a memorial overnight, saying that Lin Youlong's charge of the imperial army was unfavorable and he used power for personal gain, which caused the magic armor regiment to mutiny. Fortunately, the prince of Wuyang County was heroic and took the lead, and finally suppressed the mutiny. The Corps prevented a disaster from happening..."

"Don't say that Lin Youlong is still running for his life. Even if he returns to Kyoto, I'm afraid there will be no good end waiting for him! You'd better tell him not to come back for the time being, and find a place to avoid the limelight for the time being!"

The third prince couldn't help but fell silent.

He knew that what Zhou Zunian said was true. No matter what the reasons were, it was an indisputable fact that he had lost control of the Demon Army Corps. He would inevitably be subject to military law anyway. Maybe losing his head would still be a minor matter. It is not impossible to implicate family members.

"This must be the trick of Lao Qi behind him! He has been ready to take control of the Forbidden Army for a long time, but he has never had the chance to do it. Even if this incident hadn't happened, he would have definitely created other opportunities!"

"And that Scarker! He has always been against me. This person is really hateful! I just didn't expect that he is so powerful. Even Gao Zhengbang is not his opponent... Where does this person come from?"

The third prince was furious, his face twisted, and he said through gritted teeth.

"Instead of blaming everyone, it's better to think about how to recover the losses. What is fought for in the court is not just whims, but interests and power!"

Zhou Zunian said loudly.

The third prince immediately calmed down, lowered his head, and regained his humble attitude.

"Please tell me how to deal with this matter, Master."

A sharp look flashed in Zhou Zunian's eyes, and he said: "The person who tied the bell must untie it. If this matter is to be properly resolved, it will ultimately fall on that scarred guest..."

"You chose the wrong direction from the beginning. With such a powerful person, why did you get into such a difficult situation with him?"

"You don't have to worry about this anymore. I'll deal with him next!"

After saying that, Zhou Zunian tossed his sleeves and left the side hall.

In the palace, only the third prince, who had mixed feelings in his heart, and a series of bewildered guards, Commander Wang He, were left.
