    Li Heng returned to the courtyard alone, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. When the entire army withdrew from Chang'an, Li Heng had already planned clearly and carefully planned. On the day of his father's reign, the traitorous servants controlled the government, which led to the fall of the country and the hanging of the people. Ma Huaipo initiated the arrangement by himself, and he had already succeeded in one fell swoop. After moving the capital, he can do anything to create a brand new Great Tang. In these days, the ministers, especially those of Yu Chaoen, all trumpeted that Li Heng is the heavenly master of ZTE, and he will surely sweep away the decline of Great Tang, making him quite a bit airy.

    The old ministers such as Geshu Han and Gao Xianzhi, who used to be the last big ones, have all lost their lives. Guo Ziyi has been stabilized. The Tang court under Li Heng's rule naturally regards him as the only will to power. Unexpectedly, there is actually another Li Jinglong!

    Li Heng has long forgotten about this. Li Jinglong's thorn is what he dislikes the most. When he was still a dude, Li Heng saw him as a talent, and he decided to recruit. He didn't expect that this servant was too shameless and gave the Prince's military advice. Point, relying on the fact that he was a family member who didn't hesitate to speak, Li Heng dismissed the idea. Then I heard that Li Jinglong was thrown into the Dragon Martial Army as a vase for the guard of honor, so I no longer cared about him.

    Unexpectedly, after the establishment of the Exorcism Division, Li Jinglong's identity is no longer what he used to be. What's more troublesome is that his father was more obedient to his words in the past. Although there were frequent frictions between monarchs and ministers, they still basically trusted each other. What's more terrible is that although Li Jinglong is young, his qualifications can be regarded as an "veteran."

    The veteran is always troublesome for the prince.

    "His Royal Highness, Li Jinglong, Morigen, Kong Hongjun, Lu Xu and the Exorcist Si Chaoyun beg to see you." The eunuch whispered.

    Li Heng frowned and said, "Here again? What is Chaoyun? Pass it on."

    The eunuch approached Li Heng's ear and said another sentence, and Li Heng was furious.

    "What do you mean?" Li Heng said, "treat him with the courtesy of a monarch? Did you hear it wrong?"

    The eunuch nodded in panic.

    "What kind of person is the prince?" Although he had already received Li Jinglong's answer, Hongjun couldn't help asking again.

    "It's a warrior." Li Jinglong's answer was different from the first time.

    Hongjun said, "You should come."

    Li Jinglong said: "The significance of this meeting is very important. I cannot'come'."

    "You promised me." Hongjun was a little uneasy.

    Li Jinglong laughed and said, "You can say something more useful than what I said."

    Everyone stood waiting outside the Jin Palace, and Morigen said, "I don't think he will."

    "He will." Li Jinglong said, "because he doesn't know what we want to do."

    After everyone waited for a while, the eunuch came out to pass on the message and said, "Master Hou, your Highness ordered..."

    "Don't follow my request." Li Jinglong said, "We will return."

    These words blocked the eunuch, and the eunuch had to go back and pass the message. Finally, after waiting for a full half an hour, everyone sat on the outside steps and chatted for a while. The eunuch came out again, looked at the five people, and said: "Hou Lord please."

    Great Tang has standards for receiving foreign envoys, and it has special standards for receiving monarchs belonging to the country. However, throughout the ages, there have been very few emperors of a country who have come to visit the emperor of the Li family in person. The place where the capital was moved westward was Lingwu. There was no complicated ceremonies in Chengdu. Li Heng had to summon the six armies, each with ten guards, and sit facing south, leaving a guest seat. The case table and the device are listed, and Li Jinglong enters the hall.

    He really didn't understand what Li Jinglong meant. He first ridiculed himself mercilessly when he returned, and then spread the word that the emperor of another country was visiting, but the matter was big or small, Great Tang was newly defeated, and foreign affairs were indeed sloppy. In case it is really the emperor of another country, Li Heng will never dare to make a mistake.

    The Minister of Etiquette happened to be in the Jin Palace. Within the sound of drumming, Hongjun walked in the front in an exorcist official uniform. The ceremony was full of surprise and stopped for a moment.

    Hongjun entered the hall and had a face-to-face meeting with Li Heng. Li Heng was at a loss, then angered again, and asked with a black face, "Li Jinglong! Where is the foreign monarch? Are you really going to amuse yourself?!"

    "I am." Hongjun replied.

    Everyone in the instant hall held their breath, Li Heng also realized it, and his eyes swept over Li Jinglong and others.

    Instead, Li Jinglong left Hongjun at this time and sat behind Li Heng. The remaining Chaoyun, Morigen and Lu Xu followed Hongjun to the honorable guest seat in the hall.

    "In front of outsiders, it is inconvenient to say more." Hongjun said to Li Heng, "I wanted to go to Lingwu to see you, but I happened to meet you in Chengdu, so let's talk about it. Close the door and all the ministers go out."

    Li Heng: "..."

    Li Heng was dumbfounded and stared at Hongjun. He couldn't remember the number of times he had seen this kid. He was in a dream and never recovered.

    "Hold on." Li Heng said, "Are you...serious?"

    Li Heng always felt that this group of people listened to Li Jinglong's words to amuse themselves. Morigen said, "Hongjun is my king."

    Li Hengsa was dumbfounded. In the past, when Li Jinglong was absent, Morigen commanded the Exorcist Division, but Li Heng was more familiar with him, knowing that this tall and thin young man had a stern look and never lied.

    "Which country's emperor are you?" Li Heng said.

    "Let them go out and talk." Hongjun urged.

    "His Royal Highness!" Yu Chaoen said, "How can I be alone with you?"

    "I really want to do something." Hongjun said, "Can you stop it?"

    Li Heng heard a lot of the battle from the Sixth Army Hu Sheng when it was withdrawn from Chang'an. Qiu Yongsi was Zhao Jiao, and Hongjun was beheading everywhere. Ordinary mortals were not opponents at all. He ordered everyone to go down and said: "Yu Chaoen stayed behind and summoned Hu Sheng and Chen Xuanli."

    At the end, the guard closed the door, and Li Jinglong said: "His Royal Highness, this is the demon king in the world, after the Hei Jiaoqi Prison, the demon clan in the world is unified and respected."

    As soon as these words came out, Hu Sheng, Yu Chaoen, and Chen Xuanli's faces suddenly became earthy. Li Heng suddenly remembered Yang Guozhong's words of separation a long time ago when the Exorcist Division was established. At that time, Yang Guozhong warned Li Longji that someone in the Exorcist Division had the blood of a demon race, and it might cause serious trouble in the future.

    Then Li Jinglong confirmed and persuaded Li Longji with actions, and even took the reign of Sheng Mingzi and the coming of all nations as an example. The emperor never mentioned this matter.

    "The emperor in the world," Hongjun said, "learning that you will succeed to the throne and become the next emperor, this king is here to congratulate you."

    Li Heng hasn't recovered from the shock, he just stared at Hongjun in a daze, and muttered: "Kong Hongjun, you...have a good background."

    "My father used to be the master of Yaojin Palace in Taihang Mountain." Hongjun replied, "Before he dies, pass the throne to my hands. May you Great Tang inherit the virtues of heaven and live forever."

    As he said, Hongjun offered a five-color divine light, shrouded in divine light in his hand, transformed into a flying peacock, flying towards everyone, Hu Sheng couldn't help exclaiming, when the glowing little peacock flew towards Li Heng, it smashed into light powder and dissipated.

    Li Heng turned his head suddenly and said, "As the Demon King, what are your intentions when you come to my Great Tang?"

    "At that time, Hongjun was still a prince." Li Jinglong explained to Li Heng for Hongjun, "Experience in the mortal world, and shoulder the mission of reuniting the long-divided monster clan."

    "Shemales have different ways." Li Heng murmured, "You and I are friends and not enemies. The three people behind you are all monsters?"

    Morigen and Lu Xu have the power to change. Strictly speaking, they are "inhuman." Although they never admit that they are monsters, they still need to be classified into the monster clan if they cannot be classified. Chaoyun was orthodox, and immediately replied: "Yes, we are all, change our original form to show you?"

    Li Jinglong was about to stop, and suddenly changed his mind. It's okay to do so. Then Chaoyun suddenly turned into a snake and soared. Everyone was shocked and panicked, and Li Heng stepped back. Chaoyun's change of supernatural powers can be large or small, but when he walks around the hall, he immediately falls back and sits down.

    "Chang Lang, White Deer and Snake." Hongjun said, "All have a deep connection with my monster race."

    When the case was in a mess, Li Heng was even more shocked, and said, "Even if it is your demon king, I am the emperor of the world, with a purple star guard, and..."

    "You didn't." Chaoyun said suddenly.

    Li Jinglong's discoloration changed in an instant, but Chaoyun seriously said: "You are not the eldest son of the emperor, and you do not have a purple star. Only after you worship the heaven and become the emperor can you gain the purple star power and be protected by the heaven and the earth."

    Chaoyun's words were true, but they were harsh in Li Heng's ears.

    "What do you want to do?" Li Heng said solemnly, "After all, the world is overwhelming with evil, and I want to take advantage of the dangers of others. Even if I die in Great Tang, I will never give in!"

    "It's not that serious." Hongjun laughed and cried, "I just came to congratulate you."

    Li Jinglong said: "His Royal Highness, Hongjun's mother is a human, and she has an old affection for the human race. She used to travel in Chang'an and loves my prosperity. This time the demons came to the world, you also know..."

    "The monster has done a lot." Li Heng said lightly.

    "I am willing to conclude a covenant for generations to come with the human race." Hongjun picked up the tea bowl and said, "Never fight."

    Li Heng smiled bitterly: "You exorcist and the monster have already become a group, do you think I can't agree?"

    "Our enemy has never been the entire Monster Race." Li Jinglong said.

    "Humans are the spirit of all things." Hongjun explained, "We are the inhabitants of the land of China, and I would like to use the Exorcist Division as a bridge to assist the emperor in the world to realize the Great Tang Resurgence. Kill each other."

    With that said, Li Heng lost his tolerance. Li Heng pondered for a moment, and then said, "I will think about it."

    Li Heng was unable to answer Hongjun on the spot. Li Jinglong had expected this, and Hongjun nodded and said, "If so, then leave."

    Li Heng: "Then you..."

    "Before An Lushan Fuzhu, I was still a member of the Exorcist Division." Hongjun replied, "When the world is peaceful, I will look for another place."

    At the end, Li Jinglong, Hongjun and others came out, with sweat behind Hongjun, and asked Li Jinglong, "How am I talking?"

    There was a conversation in front of Li Heng. Naturally, the two had discussed in advance. Li Jinglong laughed and gave him a thumbs up. Lu Xu and Morigen leaned against the palace wall and looked at Li Jinglong.

    Morigen suddenly said: "Long history."

    Li Jinglong: "Next, everyone will move freely. Three days later, we will set off together to Ruoergai."

    "Amazing," Morigen said.

    "Amazing." Lu Xu smiled.

    Morigen and Lu Xu left side by side and went to stroll around the city of Chengdu. Hongjun was confused, while Li Jinglong smiled embarrassedly.

    "What do you mean?" Hongjun asked in surprise.

    "Praise you." Li Jinglong said.

    "Obviously I'm complimenting you." Hongjun looked confused, not knowing a new era, which has been slowly pulled away by Li Jinglong and his hands. In the afternoon of the same day, the two went to Chengdu thatched cottage, which was a simple hut in the suburbs. There was no grass. Li Bai and Du Fu sat opposite each other in the cottage and drank. Du Fu frowned and sighed. Hongjun could get in and cheered immediately. .

    "You are still alive!" Li Bai said drunkly, "Come on! Drink!"

    As soon as Li Jinglong sat down and chatted for a few words with a smile, the guards found him, saying that the prince asked for it, and Li Jinglong said in a convenient way: "Really don't let anyone idle for a moment."

    Li Bai said casually: "His Royal Highness often talks about you these days. It's common to be close."

    Li Jinglong said, "I'm afraid it's just scolding me." But after the two kings met, it was natural for the prince to call him, so he had to give Hongjun to Li Bai to take care of him, and then he would pick him up after finishing the work.

    On the other hand, Ah Tai had just returned to the place where the Exorcist Division was staying. Everyone had gone out to wander around in Chengdu. Only Trandot was waiting in the room while the child was feeding again.

    "Why are you eating again?" Ah Tai said, "I have to eat so many meals a day, is there enough milk?"

    Trandot said: "It's the same with children."

    Ah Tai was teasing his son to play, but a guard came to the door, saying that General Guo Ziyi would please. Trandot was startled, "Do you know him?"

    Ah Tai was vaguely aware of it during the day, and the other party apparently checked his own details. Even Trandot invited to go, and Ah Tai took his wife and children to go to Guo Ziyi's residence in Chengdu. Sure enough, Guo Ziyi said when he saw Ah Tai: "Isai?"

    Ah Tai saw his deceased suddenly and smiled: "You are..."

    "When your father brought you to see me back then, you were still in your infancy." Guo Ziyi smiled and said, "Today is also to give you a face, so I won't punish Li Jinglong."

    "Chang'an is a good person," Trandot couldn't help but said, "You all blame him, if it weren't for him, Chang'an City would have been all dead."

    Guo Ziyi burst into laughter again. Compared with the hard-tempered Geshu Han, this veteran was obviously much more mellow and had a more easy-going temper. He immediately set up a feast to reminisce with Ah Tai. It turned out that Tegla’s father Yisi Ai came to the Central Plains and borrowed troops from Li Longji at that time. After a period of time spent in Luo Yang, he met Guo Ziyi. Yisiai fell into a loss, Guo Ziyi was proud of the spring breeze, but the two fell in love unexpectedly.

    After Luo Yang gave birth to Tegla, Yisi's wife said goodbye to Guo Ziyi and left with her young son. After many years passed away in the blink of an eye, the son of the deceased had married and returned to Great Tang to become an exorcist. Guo Ziyi was embarrassed.

    Ah Tai talked a little sad about the past. Guo Ziyi knew that Isai died a long time ago, but he didn't know that his father had died so tragically. With two hundred Sassanian knights in bloody battles with thirty thousand black soldiers, the Sassanid Dynasty was destroyed.

    "The son of the knight commander back then." Ah Tai explained to Guo Ziyi, "'Dynasty Sword', named Ashnajon, just went out today to buy... the milk... uh... food, not at home."

    Guo Ziyi's eyes were red, and she nodded repeatedly, and said, "You were born in Luo Yang. It can be seen that you and Great Tang were destined to stay here in the future. I think Li Jinglong is also a general who can distinguish right from wrong. Big strategy, why do you put such a heavy burden on yourself?"

    Ah Tai was silent, and at the end, he just smiled sadly.

    Trandot smiled and said: "I'm advising Tegla to stay in Great Tang..."

    Ah Tai said: "I will definitely go back."

    Trandot was silent, and Guo Ziyi said: "We will talk to His Royal Highness again at that time."

    Ah Tai hurriedly thanked Guo Ziyi, but now Great Tang has already gradually entered into a relationship with Da Shi. After a few generations, the Chinese-Turkish dynasty would care about a Sassan who had lost power for more than 70 years and failed to regain the country? The most helpless thing is knowing that there is no hope, but still unable to let go.

    Ah Tai suddenly remembered something, and asked Guo Ziyi: "General Guo, since you met your father back then, you just don't know, did your father have a golden magical instrument before his death?"

    "Magic artifact?" Guo Ziyi thought for a moment, and said, "What is it referring to?"

    Ah Tai didn't know whether his father took the Diamond Arrow, the Devil Pestle, or the Big Sun Wheel. He didn't even get anything at all. He just asked with the idea of ​​trying his luck. Guo Ziyi thought for a moment, as if thinking back. After thinking about it for a while, Ah Tai didn't dare to interrupt, so Guo Ziyi ordered a meal to entertain Ah Tai and Trandot.

    While eating, Guo Ziyi asked Ah Tai about the post-Chang’an situation again. It was half a rhetoric and half a concern. Ah Tai knew that it was Li Heng who asked him to ask to confirm whether Li Jinglong was unwilling. In the above, was more or less afraid of the Exorcist. After the three wars of Luo Yang, Tongguan, and Chang'an, Li Jinglong was regarded as a god by the people, and there were rumors.

    He did not make any ambiguities, but answered seriously one by one. Basically, he was able to meet with Guo Ziyi's investigation. After speaking, Guo Ziyi suddenly remembered and said, "It seems that there is such a thing."

    Ah Tai: "!!!"

    "What is it?" Ah Tai asked with a frown.

    "It's a golden ring." Guo Ziyi said, comparing it with his hand, "It's the size of a bracelet, engraved with the nine-character mantra..."

    Ah Tai immediately invited paper and pen, asked Guo Ziyi to draw it, and asked, "Who did you give it to?"

    Guo Ziyi said: "When your father saw me for the first time, he didn't have this golden ring, and then he didn't know what day he put it on his hand. Before leaving, he said goodbye to me and still wore it. He must have taken it back to the Western Regions. "
