Chapter 203 Xuanjizi
"Xuanjizi?"
Zheng Yi took a deep breath and said, "Is this true?"
"I am not sure, but the trace of alien magic power that came out of Chen Li's body is exactly the same as the Su Nu Yin Sha Gong that I practiced. It is all Yin Sha magic power."
Cui Xiabing said: "There are not many cultivators in the entire Dayu who practice Yin Sha magic, and they are attracted by my magic power. It must be the same origin of the Su Nu Yin Sha Gong, otherwise it can't be so simple."
"Xuan Ji Zi..."
Zheng Yi calculated in his mind that Xuanjizi had said several years ago that he would return to Dayu, but he didn't expect it to be delayed until now.
What he didn't expect was that she actually tried to steal his Ghost Grass, but was defeated by his men again.
Zheng Yi said in a strange tone: "I remember you said before that your master's cultivation is about the sixth level of Qi training, and he is just one step away from entering the late stage of Qi training?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"And Xuanjizi has been traveling around the world for many years. He is best at patrolling the mountains and asking for medicine, and he also has a lot of experience in fighting?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Then why... were they defeated and captured by Chen Li and others?"
Zheng Yi said: "Also, your master is now freezing himself in a huge ice sculpture. Is this your master's doing?"
"I don't know either."
Cui Xiabing smiled bitterly and said, "Master and I only lived together for two years, and then she continued to travel."
"I don't know much about her."
"I only know that Master seems to have a few friends in Xueyun Country, and I often hear her mention them."
"The spell to freeze oneself should also be learned from the Snow Cloud Country."
Cui Xiabing said: "Your Majesty, please let me go and see her. If it is Master, I can still say a few words."
"No need."
Zheng Yi shook his head and said, "It has been five years since you and your master separated. You two have experienced a lot in these five years. How much love do you have as a master and a disciple?"
"My beloved, please take a rest first. Wait until I have dealt with her and ensure her absolute safety before you can identify her."
"If it is really Xuanjizi, my beloved concubine, please come forward again."
"If not, then I have to use other methods."
"Your Majesty, I will obey your majesty's wishes!"
After bidding farewell to Concubine Cui, Zheng Yi returned to Baiyujing and began to prepare for how to deal with Xuanjizi.
At the same time, in Kunning Palace.
The chief eunuch Lu Fu walked quickly into the bedroom and said respectfully: "Empress, the name of Concubine Cui's son has been decided."
"Oh? What's it called?"
Lu Lin'er sat up quickly. The maid behind her was still holding Zheng Chengji and coaxing him to sleep.
"Your Majesty, the son of Concubine Cui was given the name 'Zheng Chengqian' by His Majesty."
"Zheng Chengqian? Qian? Qiankun? Qiantongtian? He is the Son of Heaven. Does Your Majesty want to make Concubine Cui's son the Crown Prince?"
"Replying to the Queen, it's not the Qian in Qiankun."
Lu Fu quickly said, "It means lurking."
"Lurking?"
Lu Lin'er finally breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, "I was just saying, how could it be Qian in Qiankun?"
"It's a hidden word, not bad."
"It seems that your majesty is also looking forward to Concubine Cui's child, but it's a pity that it's still not as good as my Ji'er."
"Forget it. I am sleepy. Please wait for me to rest."
"No~"
The two personal palace maids behind him spoke hurriedly, one of them carried Zheng Chengji to the wet nurse's room, and the other helped Lu Lin'er onto the bed.
"By the way, Lu Fu, please pass on the matter of naming Concubine Cui's son to grandfather."
"I will obey your orders!"
The news that Concubine Cui had given birth to a prince caused another stir in the court, and many people were whispering about it.
Although the Cui family has been suppressed a lot, they are still alive even after death.
There are still many officials and forces related to the Cui family in the entire court.
With the birth of Zheng Chengqian, another group of people secretly gathered together.
Passive or active.
Under such circumstances, Zheng Yi also began to prepare for Xuanjizi.
He was first escorted to the depths of the underground palace and imprisoned.
This is the dungeon Zheng Yi prepared specifically for monks. Fayuan was imprisoned here and revealed all the information he knew.
At this time in the underground palace, the assassin Xuanjizi, who was still frozen in the ice sculpture, was being locked up by layers of iron chains.
At the same time, a circle of grenades was tied on the ice sculpture and connected with a fuse.
There are holes around the dungeon, on the ceiling, and even on the ground, and crossbow mechanisms are set up in them.
As long as the opponent makes any unusual movement, hundreds of sharp crossbow arrows can be shot out instantly.
Even if she is a monk, she will surely die without the protection of the magic shield!
In addition to grenades and crossbows, there are also poison gas, wooden stakes and other devices waiting for the prisoners.
In addition to these basic preparations, Zheng Yi also awakened Chen Liancang and six innate shadow guards to guard the surroundings.
Finally, Zheng Yi placed six Blood Moon Gu on the ice sculpture, ready to go.
Xuanjizi, a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi training.
His protective shield was broken and his magic weapons were confiscated. Even if he was released, with so many preparations, Xuanjizi wouldn't be able to make any waves.
After completing these preparations, Concubine Cui had almost recovered.
Choosing a warm day, Zheng Yi brought Concubine Cui to the depths of the dungeon.
When Concubine Cui saw the ice sculpture for the first time, she immediately walked over quickly.
"master!?"
"Your Majesty! It is indeed my master... Although her appearance has changed a little, she is undoubtedly my master!" Cui Xiabing said in a strange tone: "She is a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training. How could she be captured by a mortal warrior?"
Zheng Yi carefully asked Chen Li about the scene of the battle with Xuanjizi these days, and explained: "I asked Chen Li, restored the battle scene at that time, and came to a conclusion."
"There are two reasons why Xuanjizi was defeated and had to use this method to freeze himself."
"First, she underestimated the enemy."
"She thought Chen Li and the others were just ordinary warriors and could be killed immediately. She did not use magic weapons to kill Chen Li and the others at the first moment, but used ordinary magic to fight the enemy."
"In this battle, we have lost the initiative."
"As for Chen Li and the others, they knew that Xuanjizi was a cultivator, so they fought to the death as soon as they met, without leaving any tricks behind."
Zheng Yi said: "The second point, grenades."
"Grenade?"
"Ah."
Zheng Yi nodded and said, "In order to let the Jinyiwei focus on protecting those spiritual herbs, I equipped them with grenades."
"Chen Li was forced back by Xuanjizi during the close combat, but he took advantage of this opportunity to throw two grenades at Xuanjizi's feet."
"Xuan Jizi didn't know what it was at the time, so the grenade exploded close to her and directly broke her protective shield."
"This is also the most fundamental reason for her failure."
"If she hadn't underestimated the enemy, and if Chen Li and the others hadn't been equipped with a large number of grenades, Xuanjizi could have easily slaughtered Chen Li and the others."
"Even if Chen Li is a Xiantian realm warrior, he is definitely not a match for Xuanjizi!"
Cui Xiabing said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have an unwelcome request. I hope Your Majesty will grant it."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, can you please spare my master?"
Cui Xiabing said: "After all, she is my master, and she has the desire to preach..."
Zheng Yi held Cui Xiabing's hand and asked, "What are you talking about, my beloved concubine?"
"Your master is naturally my master as well. How could I touch my own master?"
Zheng Yi said: "I just don't know how to solve the problem of protecting Xuanjizi's ice sculpture?"
"Should we wait for it to melt on its own, or should we have someone use explosives to try?"
"Never, Your Majesty!"
Cui Xiabing quickly stopped Zheng Yi and said, "I seem to have heard Master mention this technique before. Let me try it."
As he spoke, Cui Xiabing walked in front of Xuanjizi and carefully sensed something.
After a long while, he opened his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, this ice sculpture is made of ice condensed from evil spirits. It not only has the effect of protecting itself, but also has the ability to heal injuries."
"Master uses this technique to seal himself off, protecting himself while healing himself at the same time."
Zheng Yi shook his head and said, "The person who invented this technique is a complete fool..."
"Why did your Majesty say that?"
"Like Xuanjizi, sealing oneself in ice may seem safe, but if one falls into the hands of the enemy, life and death will immediately be in the hands of others."
Zheng Yi said: "For example, I am now capable of completely suppressing it."
"And if you want to kill her, it's even easier. Just throw her into the volcano."
"I think, even if he is a monk, he will definitely die!"
Cui Xiabing could only say: "Your Majesty is wise."
"Can you melt this ice sculpture, my dear?"
"now?"
"ASAP."
Zheng Yi said: "While your master is still seriously injured, I want to have a good talk with her."
Cui Xiabing could only helplessly say: "Your Majesty's orders are obeyed."
"But I just gave birth, and I don't know how long it will take for it to completely melt."
"I am not in a hurry. My beloved concubine, you can take your time and take care of your health."
Zheng Yi said: "In addition, I will order the Shadow Guards to guard this place carefully, and the Blood Moon Gu will also help you suppress this place."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After arranging how to deal with Xuanjizi, Zheng Yi returned to Baiyujing again.
He was also pressed for time.
The blood sacrifice of the Nine Infants Fruit of Reincarnation, the sacrifice of the Thousand Illusions Glazed Painting, and the sacrifice of the puppet Xuan Ye all take up a great deal of time, but he cannot be impatient. He can only do it slowly and patiently.
As he practiced and sacrificed several treasures with blood, time passed quickly like flowing water.
A month later, Zheng Yi was awakened again by Liu Chengen.
This time, Zheng Yi had already made preparations. One month was exactly the time for Concubine Yu and Concubine Chan to give birth.
As expected, Liu Chengen woke himself up because Concubine Yu was giving birth!
"Your Majesty! Concubine Yu is about to give birth, and I have no choice but to wake you up in advance."
"Oh?"
Zheng Yi was not surprised at all and said, "I have also calculated the time when Concubine Yu will give birth. How is it going now?"
In Baiyujing, Zheng Yi slowly walked out of the underground palace.
Liu Cheng'en followed closely and said carefully, "Your Majesty, the midwife has already gone in, but I still have something to report."
"What's the matter?"
"Master Zhao Suling of Taiyi is waiting outside the palace."
"Zhao Suling? What is he doing here?"
Zheng Yi thought for a moment and said, "Let him come in."
"promise!"
"Send the message of Taiyi Dao, Zhao Suling!"
