Chapter 361 There Are so Many Mosquitoes

The answer of the Imperial Master was quite intriguing. If he had said directly that he thought Huanyin was just a mortal, it would have been fine. But he said that he could not see anything. Does that mean that with his cultivation, he could not even see whether Huanyin was a mortal or an immortal?

"Imperial Master, in your opinion, what is Huanyin like?" The emperor asked again, still wanting to hear the Imperial Master's opinion. After all, the views of immortals are much more brilliant than those of mortals like them. At least this Imperial Master has been in Qingzhou for so many years, and has always been relied on by the royal family.

But the Imperial Master shook his head: "Your Majesty, I... can't see through him at all, and I can't answer your question."

The other three were all shocked, and they had more guesses about Huanyin in their hearts.

After a long while, the emperor said, "There is no outsider here, Qianlong, I must pass on my throne to you. Tomorrow I will issue an edict to make you the crown prince."

The third prince was overjoyed and knelt down to the emperor and said, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

Wei Qianlong also knelt down, but the emperor helped them up and said, "All this was won by Qianlong himself. It is me who is too shameless as an emperor. I don't even know what the world looks like and that the people are in dire straits."

"It's just... hey..."

At this point, the emperor hesitated, which made the third prince wonder, "Brother, what's wrong?"

The emperor said to the national teacher, "National teacher, tell me."

The national teacher looked worried and said, "According to my observations over the years, the fifth prince has been constantly squeezing the people, and the wealth he has obtained may have long exceeded that of our palace."

"What!" The third prince stood up suddenly, with a look of shock on his face.

The national teacher continued: "If he is just greedy, it is easy to deal with. But this Fifth Prince is probably a tyrant. He spent all his wealth on recruiting immortal masters. Now, even I can't see through how strong his Fifth Prince's Mansion is."

This national teacher has assisted the emperor in Qingzhou for more than 30 years. He is very loyal to the emperor and has always been regarded as the person with the highest cultivation and the strongest power in Qingzhou. At this moment, he said that he couldn't see through the strength of the Fifth Prince's Mansion. Doesn't that mean that the Fifth Prince's Mansion may have the power to kill the emperor and establish itself?

After all, although Qingzhou is the largest secular emperor, where in the land of Jiuzhou is not respected by absolute strength? No matter how strong a mortal is, he can't compare to a cultivator. Therefore, one of the most important reasons why the Qingzhou Emperor can continue to this day for three thousand years without changing is to invite immortal masters to protect the country.

Now, the national strength may not be as strong as the Fifth Prince's family, which is really dangerous.

The emperor continued, "In fact, even if I didn't know about Qianlong's affairs, I had wanted to make him the crown prince a long time ago. But when the national teacher told me about the situation on Lao Wu's side, I hesitated. I don't want to see the civil strife in Qingzhou, which will lead to a miserable life." "However, this incident has made me determined to make Qianlong the crown prince. However, once my edict is issued tomorrow, Lao Wu will surely take action. How to deal with this matter is a big problem for me, and it is also a big problem for Qianlong who is about to become the emperor." The third prince had frowned a long time ago, but Wei Qianlong said, "And Brother Huan, today He will definitely be targeted by the Fifth Prince's Mansion later, what can we do then? "

The Imperial Master laughed and said, "If Huan Yin is really a master, the Fifth Prince's Mansion will destroy itself if they go after him. But if not, not only will his life be in danger, but our situation will also be extremely bad."

The Emperor said, "What the Imperial Master means is that our fate will be controlled by someone whose background is unknown?"

The Imperial Master replied, "What I mean is that now we can only seek self-protection, and Huan Yin can't help. If a disaster is really imminent, I will be buried with the country and will never flee from the battlefield."

At this moment, Huan Yin has returned to his own yard.

"Husband, is it because of that child last time that we got into trouble?" Ruan Shushu was embroidering, and when she saw Huan Yin coming back, she asked.

Huan Yin nodded and said, "Yes, that child is a little prince, and he may inherit the throne."

Ruan Shushu smiled and said, "No problem, right?"

Huan Yin laughed and said, "If we were just ordinary people, then the problem would be big. I'm afraid some Taoist friends will come to our house as guests in the next two days, and it's not easy to sleep well at night."

Ruan Shushu said angrily, "Since they are guests, just treat them well."

...

That night, every household in the green willow alley in the south of the city had turned off the lights, and it was time to sleep soundly. Wei Qianlong quietly lay on a big locust tree not far from the gate of Huan Yin's courtyard, silently, but his eyes were extremely bright.

Wei Qianlong knew that the situation was not good now, and it was impossible for the emperor to send a fairy master to protect Huan Yin. But he was really worried about Huan Yin, because he knew that the fifth prince and his son would definitely attack Huan Yin.

He had already thought about it. If a killer came, he would rush out to protect Huan Yin. If a fairy master came, he would die with Huan Yin even if he couldn't beat him.

In this way, Wei Qianlong lay on the big locust tree for a whole night, without moving at all, and naturally did not close his eyes once. When the sky began to lighten slightly, he knew that he might be fine today, so he climbed down from the tree and walked back to his own prince's mansion.

The lives of Huan Yin and his wife naturally did not change at all. Soon after Wei Qianlong left, Huan Yin went out to the gate of the courtyard and began to wait for the sunrise. Then, it was an ordinary day of life, nothing more than forging swords, gossiping, etc.

That day, Wang Po came to persuade Huan Yin again, hoping that the couple could move out immediately. Huan Yin knew that Wang Po had good intentions, and greeted her with a smile, but he would not leave.

In this way, a few days passed, and Wei Qianlong still came to the big locust tree at night to lurk, without any fatigue. However, he still found nothing in these days, as if the Fifth Prince's Mansion had forgotten about Huan Yin.

Although Wei Qianlong felt a little puzzled, he thought that maybe the Fifth Prince and his son wanted the throne, and Huan Yin was nothing in their eyes, so they didn't plan to take action against him.

If that was the case, it would certainly be great. After all, with Wei Qianlong's character, Huan Yin helped him so much that he didn't even have the chance to thank him. If he was killed by a bad guy again, how could he feel at ease?

This was the fifth day, and Wei Qianlong thought that if he still couldn't wait for anything today, maybe the Fifth Prince's Mansion was preparing for a bigger turmoil and had no intention of taking care of Huan Yin. Therefore, he would not come here every day after today.

At the hour of Chou, when the night was deepest, Wei Qianlong lay on the locust tree, feeling a little drowsy. Suddenly, three black shadows appeared in his field of vision.

The three black shadows were extremely blurry in the night. If Wei Qianlong had not always acted at night in recent years and was accustomed to the darkness, he would probably not have seen them at all.

They were three people standing in the air, and at this moment they were above the courtyard of Huanyin's family. Although Wei Qianlong was not a cultivator, he was very yearning for cultivation. He knew that being able to stand in the air represented a cultivation level above the realm of concentration. Such a cultivator was not considered a newcomer to the immortal gate, and was extremely powerful. If a cultivator of this level attacked him, he would die in an instant.

Wei Qianlong knew that the Fifth Prince had finally sent someone to attack Huanyin. He instantly lost all sleepiness, clenched his hands tightly, and kept thinking about what to do in his mind.

In fact, he had been thinking about this problem for many days. If the Fifth Prince really sent a cultivator to attack Huanyin, what should he do?

However, after thinking for so long, he still couldn't come up with an answer. After all, he was a mortal, like an ant in front of a monk, and no matter what he did, he would be restrained in an instant.

"Let's go for it!" Wei Qianlong made up his mind, reached behind his back to take down a bow, and held it in his hand. Then, he quickly put an arrow on it and shot it at one of the black shadows!

Wei Qianlong decided to sacrifice himself to lure away the monks. Although he knew that this might still fail, he couldn't watch Huan Yin suffer.

The bow and arrow flew through the air with a whistle. If a mortal was ambushed by Wei Qianlong in this darkness, he would naturally die. But just when the bow and arrow were about to hit the monk, the monk suddenly turned his eyes, and the light in his eyes was as bright as two flames, which shocked Wei Qianlong.

Then, the monk stretched out his hand and pointed lightly at the bow and arrow, and the bow and arrow instantly collapsed in the air. The three monks all looked at Wei Qianlong on the big locust tree, causing Wei Qianlong to feel a sudden increase in pressure and gasp for breath.

However, the next moment, the three monks flashed and rushed directly to the small courtyard that Wei Qianlong could not see, and ignored him.

"Oh no, Brother Huan!" Wei Qianlong was anxious and wanted to jump down the tree to help Huan Yin, but he suddenly found that he could not move at all and was actually fixed on the tree.

"Damn it!" Wei Qianlong wanted to shout loudly again, but he opened his mouth and found that he could only make a very weak "ah ah" sound, like the sound of a mouse at night, which was barely audible.

In this way, even though Wei Qianlong was extremely depressed, he could only stay on the tree honestly for a full half an hour.

After half an hour, he found that he seemed to be slowly recovering his ability to move, and his mouth began to make the same sounds as usual. In this way, his confused mood finally recovered a little.

At this moment, the three monks who entered Huanyin's courtyard had not come out yet, and there was no sound in the courtyard. They seemed to have disappeared. Nothing that Wei Qianlong expected happened.

What was going on? Wei Qianlong couldn't figure it out, and he didn't dare to act rashly. He could only stay on the big locust tree and wait quietly.

When the sky was slightly brighter, the door of Huanyin's courtyard was pushed open with a creak. Wei Qianlong stared at it, but saw Huanyin moving a small stool outside, looking at him casually, and said to himself: "There are so many mosquitoes in Qingzhou City, disturbing people's sleep."
