Taoist enchanting [cultivation]

Huang Yucheng is getting older and can't stand the hotter weather.But this morning, Si Shen borrowed the mouth of the young emperor to pity him for his old age and frailty, and he will not have to go to court for a month.

He was so angry that he almost passed over in the hall.

He sighed and sighed in the mansion, while his wife gently waved a fan and persuaded him softly.He was complaining, and the maid came to report that a young son asked to see him.

Huang Yucheng is stubborn and rigid, and is very dissatisfied with the maid's behavior of spreading messages privately.He winked at Fa's wife first, and then said angrily: "No see!"

"The young master said that as long as you read this letter, your lord will definitely meet him."

Huang Yucheng fell on his back in anger, scolded the maid, then tore up the letter paper, scanned a few lines, but his anger calmed down instantly, and hurriedly greeted his wife with strange eyes.

In the hall, Xuan Yan took a sip of tea, seemingly not seeing Huang Yucheng's eyes.

The two sat opposite each other in silence.Seeing that he was getting more and more anxious, Xuan Yan took it away when he saw it, put the tea bowl away, and bowed slightly: "If your lord doesn't believe it, you can go to the Taiwei's mansion to have a look."

Relying on decades of officialdom cultivation, Huang Yucheng finally didn't roll his eyes in front of this strange young man.

In the letter that this person entrusted his maid to send earlier, the interior layout of the Taiwei's mansion is detailed and meticulous, and even a sentence is attached:

Want to bring down Si Shen?

Why doesn't Huang Yucheng want to?

Si Shen took over Tiyiqi at the age of 22 and has been out of control ever since.Although Si Shen is much younger than them, he is extremely sophisticated in his actions.Ten years have passed, and the number of times their men successfully sneaked into Si Shen's mansion is pitifully small.

This situation is not good.

In the words of Liu Mingde and Liu Shangshu, they are already old.Si Shen was in his prime, with the support of the Empress Dowager, if the two parties continued to struggle, they would definitely not be able to survive Si Shen.

Now he doesn't have to go to court, and he is forced to rest for a month because he is "old and weak", which is the best evidence.

Even if this strange young man came here with deceitful intentions, he would still give it a try.What's more, there are two monks in his house, forgive him for not dare to do anything.

Just like other senior officials in the court, Huang Yucheng's mansion also has a room for secret talks.Huang Yucheng carefully observed Xuan Yan's expression along the way, and found that he was not surprised at all, so he couldn't help but secretly admired him.

A man who has seen great storms.This kind of reaction is more and more able to prove that what Xuan Yan said is true.

The two talked in secret for a long time until dusk, when Huang and Chengcai reluctantly sent Xuanyan out of the house.

The strange young man who came suddenly disappeared in the eyes of others inadvertently in the afterglow.

Late at night, Xuanyan turned on the lamp to sort out the news of the past few days.

First is Qin Shi.However, Qin Shi has already agreed to him, and will not move until he gains something.

Xuanyan slightly stretched his brows.

Next is the swordsmith.

After he left Si Shen's study, he followed Zhai Guang and others, walked around the Taiwei's mansion twice, and found the swordsmith's residence smoothly.

For ordinary people, the identity of the swordsmith is difficult to see through, but it is not so for Xuanyan.Although the swordsmith's whereabouts are secretive, he will always deal with monks, and he has his own way.

It's just that he was really shocked once.

In order to calm down the two disciples, Si Shen had already killed their master.

The lineage of swordsmiths has always been thin. One is that there are too few people with golden spirit roots, and the other is that making magic weapons is too difficult and tiring, and few people can persevere.Passed down to this world, there are only three people left in total, but one was killed by Si Shen in the blink of an eye.The remaining two senior brothers and sisters endured humiliation and forged weapons for Si Shen in the dark place.

Xuan Yan explained the purpose of coming, and handed them the black iron dagger, which is not only the material for asking them to forge a new sword, but also a token to contact Xuantianmen.

In order not to startle the enemy, Xuan Yan gave the two of them some self-defense charms, and did not take them out of the Taiwei's mansion, but took away some iron ore for the two to forge weapons.

After meeting Huang Yucheng, he handed over the iron ore to Huang Yucheng.Huang Yucheng has been in power for decades, so he naturally has a way to find out the origin of the iron ore.

Finally, there is the origin of Si Shen.

Even a man as well-informed as Xuan Yan could not guess Si Shen's background for a while.

If you don't know the root and the bottom, you can't uproot it.

It is very interesting that Huang and Cheng reciprocate each other.After collecting the iron ore, he told some news about Si Shen.

Si Shen turned his hand to cover clouds and rain, many people hated it.But after ten years, only a few things were found that were better than nothing.

More than ten years ago, 20-year-old Si Shen entered Yujing and soon became a celebrity around the late emperor.

The first emperor had some talents and liked to promote young people.The court thought that Si Shen would be like countless young people before, taking the good position given by the late emperor and doing reckless things, so he didn't take him seriously.

However, Si Shen did not.

He grew up amazingly, even the first emperor was full of praise.By the time Chaozhong reacted, he had already taken over the Tiyiqi trained by the late emperor.

A few years later, the first emperor died suddenly.Si Shen quickly went from being an upstart in the court to becoming a dignitary who overwhelmed the sky with one hand.Everyone in the middle of the capital, upon hearing of Si Shen's name, would fight against each other, keeping the secret secret.

When the late emperor was around, Si Shen was just a bit arrogant, but he was in line with the late emperor's wishes, and the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty could not help him.As soon as the first emperor left, he began to act recklessly, almost turning the entire court upside down.

It's fine to rely on your seniority and power to do whatever you want, why did Si Shen even change his temperament so much?

The courtiers couldn't figure it out, and they didn't dare to think about it.

The slender fingers moved slowly on the paper, and settled on the words "do whatever you want."

It seems that there is a thread jumping in front of my eyes, too fast to catch.

The origin is unknown, the temperament has changed drastically, and...

Xuanyan picked up a pen and added a few words on the back of the paper:

Cloud Gate curse.

Si Shen didn't recruit disciples from famous sects, and mostly hooked up with wild people who walked the rivers and lakes.Although Yunmen behaves strangely, he certainly disdains to collude with it.

Could it be that he has grudges with Yunmen?

A moment later, a black shadow fell from the window, picked up Xuanyan's letter, and went straight to Yehuang Yunmen.

Xuanyan looked away.The wavering line gradually became clear, and he seemed to have thought of something.

Perhaps, Si Shen didn't come for power at all?

After a few days of peace and quiet, Yunmen finally replied.

It could be seen that Yunyue was very reluctant to return, and because of his face, he reluctantly said something.

Yunmen has very strict restraints on its disciples, and it is also for sect affairs that they occasionally walk in the world.Yun Yue repeatedly denied any contact with Si Shen, and only mentioned an incident 20 years ago.A disciple took a bribe from Yujing, and secretly attacked the mortals, destroying the clan that was exiled to Yehuang.After that disciple was sentenced to death, there was no similar incident.

Xuanyan thought about it.

Twenty years ago, Si Shen was only 20 years old.

But ten years is enough for him to walk from Yehuang to Yujing, and then to the court.

When he left the residence to discuss with Liu Mingde and Huang Yucheng, Si Shen had just stepped into Changle Palace.
