"Great God?" Li Chengqian was shocked and immediately came forward!
His face was full of joy and relief, because he knew that he was not alone! The moment Zhang Fan appeared, all the panic and worry in his heart disappeared.
"Your Majesty, you have been suppressing many clans in Chang'an City for you these past few days! The Tang Dynasty is not as the outside world sees. It belongs to your Li family alone." He said leisurely, sitting on the chair next to him.
Li Chengqian personally made tea for him and said with a faint smile.
"Master, I have heard this sentence more than once! However... no matter how powerful their methods are, they can hardly escape the control of my Li family. As for what happened in the palace today, I was indeed a little excited, which revealed a flaw." Li Chengqian no longer hid his emotions. As if mocking himself, he expressed some of his regrets.
"If you can notice it, it means you have realized the importance of this matter. But you don't have to worry... because Taoist Zi Jin has already cleaned up the mess for you." Zhang Fan picked up the tea and took a sip, his eyes never leaving Li Chengqian's face!
Sure enough, just as he finished speaking, Li Chengqian's eyes widened: "Zi Jin Taoist, did you kill that Taoist?"
“Taoist Zi Jin used the methods of the cultivation world to break his dantian, and destroyed his five internal organs with the spiritual energy of the immortals. His methods were cruel. He could still live for a while, but he would be in torture and pain every day.” Zhang Fan said in a relaxed tone, as if he was narrating a trivial matter that was not worth mentioning!
"This..." Li Chengqian showed reluctance. Although he had a strong desire to kill the Taoist priest, he was not a bloodthirsty killer. He was even more unwilling to kill a practitioner in such a cruel way!
Zhang Fan looked at Li Chengqian's expression and shook his head slightly.
"You probably think that Taoist Zijin's methods are too cruel! As the saying goes, killing is the only way to go, and with Taoist Zijin's cultivation... killing him is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables! Why does he have to use such cruel methods?"
Li Chengqian saw Zhang Fan and didn't seem to reprimand him! He couldn't help but sigh softly: "This cultivator bewitched the queen, he must be killed! But the means of Taoist Zijin are inevitably a bit excessive. You must know that these cultivators have deep backgrounds, and they may be in trouble with the royal family."
Zhang Fan smiled softly: "Have you ever thought about what would happen if that young scholar, a disciple of a saint, died in the capital of Chang'an?"
Crown Prince Li Chengqian opened his mouth but said nothing.
Zhang Fan said, "Being indecisive is not advisable. Today, you know that you have exposed your flaws, so you should understand that those people do not deserve sympathy. Moreover, the people who stir up trouble behind the scenes must be found out! Although the methods of Zi Jin Taoist are cruel, we can find the person who instructed him to do this in the subsequent surveillance. So do you still think that Zi Jin Taoist did something wrong?"
After saying this, Li Chengqian's expression changed several times. Finally, he hummed calmly: "Master, I know where I did wrong... Maybe when I started, I shouldn't have thought about whether I should stop! I shouldn't have been moved by external things and fell into a passive position."
Zhang Fan nodded gently, looked at him calmly and said: "At present, the young scholar is a disciple of the saint. He will not be in any danger in the short term! But don't forget that you were almost annihilated by the thunder."
When Li Chengqian heard this, his expression changed!
"What the great god means is that these people's methods are likely to be used on me."
Zhang Fan nodded. "It's just a Buddha of moderate size who came this time. He is indeed stronger than the one you killed in the execution ground that day... but only to a limited extent! I originally thought that the Buddhist sect was too arrogant and looked down on the mortals in the human world! But before that, I saw through the art of looking at qi that this Master Afan was just a chess piece! His life should end here."
After hearing Zhang Fan's explanation, Li Chengqian finally understood!
With the cultivation of the Purple Gold Taoist and the young scholar, if the Buddhist sect really wanted to kill them, they would never give them a chance to fight back. Moreover, in the Three Realms today, the Buddhist sect is very powerful and there are many strong people! It is easy to deal with a mortal and a celestial being.
But they failed, and it felt like there were many loopholes and a lack of momentum!
It turns out that there are other calculations and plans behind this matter! As for this Master Afan, he was originally pushed out as a chess piece for testing.
"During this period of time, you can consolidate your cultivation, but try to go out as little as possible! It is very likely that there will be assassinations specifically targeting you in the future! You'd better take care of yourself."
After saying this, Zhang Fan stood up leisurely, took a step forward, and disappeared among the palace complex!
Li Chengqian's expression changed several times in the back, and finally he clasped his hands together and bowed in the direction of Zhang Fan, showing a certain gratitude.
Afterwards, he immediately summoned the guards of the Eastern Palace and recruited some ordinary people in Chang'an City who had practiced cultivation to some extent. However, he did not show up this time!
Instead of arranging these people in the East Palace, they were all sent to the Mortal Pool!
In this way, those who want to practice are very grateful! However, those Buddhists lurking in the dark feel overwhelmed.
There were also many people who wanted to assassinate Li Chengqian, but unfortunately, they simply could not find any opportunity!
In the imperial palace, inside Li Shimin’s bedroom.
At this time, Li Shimin had just finished discussing matters with many court officials! In the current Tang Dynasty, the number of ancient monsters has been reduced to less than a hundred due to the killing of many practitioners.
In this way, the originally chaotic situation finally became clear! And many generals, officials, etc. after the Tang Dynasty also began to sort out local politics! Help the people return to their homes.
So he seemed very busy, but he still took time out to invite the Queen to talk in person.
The incense was burning and there was a slight chill in the hall!
Empress Changsun walked into the palace with lotus steps, as ethereal as willow branches and as if she were a fairy from heaven.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Many minor palace officials saluted.
Li Shimin waved his hand, his eyes only on the queen: "You all leave, I want to chat with the queen about family matters."
Many minor palace officials did not dare to hesitate and left the palace one after another.
Empress Changsun stared at Li Shimin and smiled gently: "Your Majesty is so busy, but you still take time out for me. I am sorry that your Majesty is worried!"
Li Shimin said, "Queen, is the current situation of the Changsun family very difficult? Why do I hear in the court that the Changsun family expelled civilians and harmed the people in order to preserve their own power?"
