Chapter 267: White Lotus Religion
When Huo Lingzi and his two companions sneaked into the capital, they were discovered by Tian Xingzi.
The third-level formation Xuanyuan Juling Formation covered the entire Tianshou Mountain and the imperial palace, but it also had some radiating effect on the capital city.
After receiving the information conveyed by Tian Xingzi, Zheng Yi also responded immediately.
His divine consciousness had already enveloped the entire palace.
When the three entered the palace, they were also discovered by Zheng Yi.
At that time, Zheng Yi thought that these three people were targeting him, but he did not expect that they were actually led by a eunuch and sneaked towards Yongchun Palace.
Memories from long ago come to mind.
Yongchun Palace, Bipin, is a member of the White Lotus Sect!
Their purpose should be to use Bipin and her child as hostages, so that they can leave Baiyujing, and then ambush and kill Zheng Yi in Yongchun Palace.
The information that he had become a cultivator was already known to everyone in the court, so it was reasonable for Huo Lingzi and the other two to know it.
Wherever a cultivator resides, there will be formations guarding it, so they did not attack Baiyujing by force, but chose to transfer Zheng Yi out.
Zheng Yi did not take action immediately, but instead took advantage of the situation and made a series of arrangements.
As for why he didn't expose Bihe in advance, he also wanted to see what choice Bihe would make.
Should he be loyal to the White Lotus Sect that has ignored him for ten years, or should he be loyal to himself?
Her husband, her emperor, and her daughter's father!
For this reason, he used the Thousand Illusions Glazed Painting to create an illusion for Bihe when she entered Baiyujing, trying to lure her into making a choice.
At the beginning, Bihe still followed the plan of the three people and lured herself to Yongchun Palace by saying that Yuxia had a fever.
Zheng Yi was extremely disappointed at that time.
But when the sedan chair reached the Imperial Garden, Bihe's words saved herself.
It turns out that she is still loyal to herself.
It turns out that she had discovered her true identity ten years ago!
After a heart-to-heart talk, Zheng Yi finally understood Bihe's feelings.
If this is the case, there will naturally be new ways of dealing with it.
At the same time, Yongchun Palace.
Huo Lingzi, Bai Laogui and Tuoba Wufeng sat cross-legged in the bedroom in the Three Talents formation, commanding the imperial palace, but they did not show the slightest sign of nervousness or fear.
After all, they are all cultivators in the late stage of Qi training, and their own strength is the capital they rely on!
Around them stood several eunuchs and palace maids.
These people are all believers of the White Lotus Sect. They were sent into the palace through various means and channels as early as ten years ago. Almost all of them are under the command of Concubine Bi in Yongchun Palace.
In addition to them, there was a girl tied up in the corner, lying on the ground with a silk handkerchief stuffed in her mouth, her face full of fear and tears.
The girl was about ten years old. She was wearing a turquoise palace dress with tassels and had two round buns on her hair. She looked very cute.
Her face is also closed like her mother's, round like a bun.
But now her face was covered with tears and she looked around nervously.
She never imagined that the eunuchs and palace maids who had taken care of her for almost ten years would actually be her enemies!
These three people held me hostage and forced my mother to call my father.
They are all bad guys and want to murder my father!
Father...
Please don't come over here!
woo woo woo...
At this moment, Huo Lingzi suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "Why haven't you come yet?"
"Old Ghost Bai, your little saint girl wouldn't have deceived us, would she?"
"After all, she has been with the little emperor for ten years, and she gave birth to a daughter for him. She has lived a life of wealth and glory. Are you really willing to give it up?"
Old Ghost Bai's beautiful eyes moved slightly, and he said calmly: "Fellow Daoist Huo Lingzi, have you forgotten what my White Lotus Sect is best at?"
"To deceive the people, to win their hearts with doctrines, to teach them to sacrifice everything for the so-called 'Mother of No Birth'..."
At this time, Tuoba Wufeng also whispered, with a bit of fear in his eyes: "Brother Bai's White Lotus Sect, I admire it from the bottom of my heart."
"If I remember correctly, the White Lotus Sect seems to be derived from the 'White Lotus Religion' more than 3,000 years ago."
"The White Lotus Cult at that time was the largest sect in the Demonic Path. I admire it!"
"White Lotus Cult..."
Old Ghost Bai chuckled and said, "It's a pity that the descendants are so immoral that the White Lotus Sect has been in decline until now."
“Hehehe…” Huo Lingzi sneered, “Do you really think I don’t know?”
"There is also the White Lotus Sect in the overseas cultivation world. They are the main sect of the White Lotus Sect!" "The White Lotus Sect of Dayu... is just a branch~"
Old Ghost Bai did not seem angry, and said calmly: "The main sect and the branch sect are just disputes within our sect."
"After today's incident, I wonder if you two can join my White Lotus Sect and join us in this righteous cause?"
"No need."
Huo Lingzi refused outright, saying, "As the deputy leader of the Ephemeral Tower, how can I join your White Lotus Sect?"
Tuoba Wufeng also smiled faintly and said: "I am also burdened by my family, so let's forget about this matter."
"Ugh……"
Bai Laogui shook his head and said, "That's such a pity..."
At this moment, a young eunuch walked in quickly and said respectfully, "Grand Elder, His Majesty has arrived!"
The three people's eyes focused at almost the same time.
"Oh?"
Tuoba Wufeng made a hand gesture and a watery round mirror immediately appeared in his hand.
The three of them looked and saw in the round mirror that Emperor Zhengyong's carriage had passed through the Imperial Garden and arrived outside Yongchun Palace.
Leading the group were more than a dozen imperial guards, followed by eunuchs and palace maids, and behind them were also imperial guards.
In the center of the imperial carriage, there was a man sitting in a sedan chair carried by eight people, and he could vaguely be seen as Emperor Yong.
"Emperor Zhengyong!"
Huo Lingzi gritted his teeth, his pupils suddenly flashing with murderous intent.
Bai Laogui said, "Daoist Fellow Huo Lingzi, can you see clearly? It's really Emperor Zhengyong?"
"Ten years ago, I saw him with my own eyes!"
Huo Lingzi said: "Even if he turns into ashes, I will never forget him!"
"what……"
Tuoba Wufeng suddenly said: "The old eunuch serving beside Emperor Zhengyong...seems to be a monk!"
Huo Lingzi frowned and said, "Cultivator? What is his cultivation level? Brother Tuoba, are you sensing wrong?"
"How is that possible?"
Tuoba Wufeng said disdainfully: "The Water Mirror Technique is an ancestral method of my Tuoba family. Not only can it see clearly what is happening several miles away, it can even sense the cultivation level of cultivators."
"Unless the person being monitored has a cultivation level far beyond mine... But how is that possible!"
"Cultivation level... Early stage of Qi training?!"
"Initial stage of Qi training?"
The two were disdainful, and Huo Lingzi even said, "What's the use of just the initial stage of Qi training? I will destroy it with a backhand!"
"Where is Emperor Zhengyong himself?"
"Spiritual energy fluctuations... seems to be the middle stage of Qi training?"
"Okay... let's do it!"
Bai Laogui spoke, then waved his hand to signal the young eunuch to come over and whispered something.
The young eunuch left quickly and trotted out of Yongchun Palace.
Old Ghost Bai waved his hand, and the other eunuchs and palace maids followed him away.
The imperial carriage slowly entered the Yongchun Palace, and more than ten eunuchs quickly came to greet them.
"Your Majesty, I am waiting to see you!"
The sedan chair stopped and the leading eunuch spoke immediately.
Zheng Yi slowly walked out of the sedan chair and looked down at the eunuchs.
Chen Liancang, who was serving beside him, said, "Stand up~"
The leading eunuch was full of doubts, but he still stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please!"
While leading the way, he said, "Your Majesty, the Second Princess has been crying since she came back last night. She had a fever in the early hours of last night. We asked the imperial physician to see her and she took medicine, but she is still not getting better..."
Soon, under the deliberate leadership of the leading eunuch, the distance between Zheng Yi and the palace guards behind him had exceeded five meters.
After entering the gate of Yongchun Palace, three attacks came immediately!
