Chapter 588: The Emperor's Preparations

"Don't you need to inform the Northern Xuan Realm?" Yan Wuxue asked in a low voice.

The emperor shook his head and looked at the two of them and replied, "I didn't listen to the national master? No one needs to hide these things, but I can't let the people in the Northern Xuan Realm know. Nalan, you sent someone to go there, just routinely supervise the training of troops to prevent the chaos in the southern border from becoming more chaotic, and give them a reason."

"This is a good reason!" Yan Wuxue knew that the emperor was talking about the prince who went to the Northern Region. I know why, he suddenly had a premonition that one day the accident might be the prince of the Northern Region.

"What the emperor said, even if you train troops, you have to find a righteous and open excuse. You can't let the two palace masters learn more about it now."

After all, the matter that Li Ye explained was just a guess about a certain day in the future. It does not mean that the emperor has any thoughts about the Northern Xuan Realm.

Even if the second prince’s people know about this, at most they can only think that the Northern Xuan Domain has a prince in charge and the emperor does not want to interfere in the matter here anymore.

Nalan Yu smiled and looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty and the National Master think far away from this matter, I will arrange it later."

After a while, the emperor sighed faintly, looked at the eunuch and said, "My mother is with the national master. I don't know if she is still on Fangcun Mountain or has left the fifth domain to find her father?"

Yan Wuxu was stunned and looked at him and said, "No one can understand this kind of thing, after all, it is hard to come by."

The emperor nodded, looked at him and smiled, "You can't leave me behind early and ignore me. Where can I go to find my father and mother?"

In the emperor's perception, the eunuch's cultivation is not lower than his father. It seems that the father was afraid that no one could help him after he left, so he deliberately left Yan Wuxue.

But this is just a temporary solution. It won’t take long to leave. The old man in front of him will definitely leave.

Yan Wuxue looked up at the emperor and smiled faintly: "Your Majesty should cultivate some of his own people. You can't rely on us old people in everything."

The emperor instantly understood what he meant, looked at him and smiled, "I'll leave this matter to you, I'll rest assured that you are looking for."

When Yan Wuxu heard this, he couldn't help but lower his head. He naturally knew that the emperor had no time to find the eunuch around him. In the end, this matter fell on him. It would be better if he could at least find someone to rest assured.

Looking at the serious look of the two, the emperor couldn't help but snap his fingers gently and said, "I have been stuck in the palace these days. The queen is no longer happy. I will go to Huamanlou to have fun tomorrow afternoon. The queen is thinking about your shopkeeper Hua."

When Nalan Yu heard this, she smiled and said, "I will go back today to prepare to ensure that the queen is satisfied."

"My sister is with the national teacher, and Mr. Tang is here too. I don't need to worry about it. Taking advantage of the peace of the world, we have to go out for a walk when we have time. It's not okay to stay in the palace all the time."

Only today's emperor understood why the national master would rather go to Fangcun Mountain to practice than be the emperor.

......

At the National Master's Mansion, the gentleman and his family had just returned from Qingcheng.

Ye Zhiqiu was cooking tea with his husband in the living room, while Li Hongxiu and Li Xiaoxue practiced swords in the garden.

"Ye'er, I don't know that I'm back when I go, and I don't bring a letter back."

Ye Zhiqiu looked at the gentleman and sighed softly.

The gentleman shook his head and replied quietly: "If he had nothing to do on the mountain, he naturally would not have to write a letter. Moreover, he knew that if we had something to come to him, he would naturally write a letter or send someone to come."

Ye Zhiqiu nodded and continued, "Even Xiaoxue has broken through many realms. I don't know how Ye'er has practiced on the mountain?"

"Don't you worry about this. Didn't Tang Qiuyu take the princess there? With them here, what are you afraid of? Tang Qiuyu is a mid-stage cultivation of the distraction." The gentleman smiled faintly.

As he was talking, the housekeeper took Xu Jingyun and Shangguan Wushuang in.

The young lady met the husband and Ye Zhiqiu and pulled Ye Zhiqiu and asked, "Have Li Ye written a letter back? It's been another year, right?"

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head, asked the master and apprentice to sit down, and said softly: "I just talked to the teacher about this matter, and this child didn't know how to write a letter to let everyone worry about him."

Xu Jingyun looked at the husband worriedly and whispered: "I heard that my senior sister took the princess to Xixuan Domain, why did they go to Prajna Temple? Where can I practice?"

Ye Zhiqiu laughed: "They went with Empress Dowager Jiang, and I don't know much about the specific matters."

"The Empress Dowager has also gone?" Xu Jingyun was shocked.

The gentleman looked at the master and apprentice and said softly: "Jiang Ruoyu will not come back wherever she goes. The princess and her master are going to see her off for her mother. There is no need for everyone to know about this."

"Is it said that the Empress Dowager is about to ascend?" Xu Jingyun asked again.

"Maybe, who knows?" Even the gentleman didn't know what was happening in front of Jiang Ruoyu, after all, Li Ye didn't write a letter back.

"So that's it." Xu Jingyun glanced at the young lady. "We master and apprentice stayed in the Royal Academy to practice, and we couldn't understand what was happening in the imperial city."

"It is very rare to practice quietly. You can calm down and practice." The gentleman poured tea for the two of them and said quietly.

"What's wrong with Wushuang?" Ye Zhiqiu asked curiously: "What's the realm now? What about you, Mr. Xu?"

Xu Jingyun smiled and said, "Wu Shuang is already at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul. I can't be overwhelmed by the third level of my life."

"Wu Shuang is good." Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, "With the help of my husband Ye'er, I broke through to the sixth level of the Nascent Soul level. I don't know what year and month I can practice to reach the realm of Mr. Xu."

Xu Jingyun glanced at the husband, smiled slightly, and said, "Don't worry, the more you go, the harder you will be in practice."

The young lady who drank a cup of hot tea stayed for a while and couldn't help asking, "Master, I heard that Li Ye cast a sword for Xiaoxue and the princess, why did she forget me?"

Xu Jingyun was stunned and looked at the husband and didn't know how to answer.

The gentleman frowned and looked at her and replied, "This matter was proposed by the princess and the emperor, and the materials were also found in the palace. It is probably only enough to fight two swords. Even his master's wife has not yet been settled. Don't you have a lady's sword? He gave Xiaoxue one."

The gentleman's meaning is very clear. The materials were produced by the emperor, and his master's wife did not leave her behind. She only gave them to the princess and her sister. If you want to make a sword, you have to find materials first and then find Li Ye.

"And, even if you have the materials, you have to send them to Fangcunshan. There is nothing you can do if you leave them wherever you leave!" The gentleman thought for a while and added.

"Why is this happening?" Xu Jingyun and Ye Zhiqiu asked together.

The young lady also looked at the gentleman with a gaze.

The gentleman looked at the three of them and shook his head, saying, "Because Xuantianguan's back mountain... Without earth fire, it is useless for you to give him materials. It is impossible to cast a good sword without three or two months of hard work."

The gentleman remembered the autumn water of the Tang Qiuyu, who had no trace of the traces of the autumn water, but it took Li Ye several months to let go of his practice and cast it day and night.

"If we include his current practice and his practice with his disciples, we will not be able to cast a sword in less than a year or two. This is why I don't want to cause trouble for him."

As he was talking, Li Hongxiu pulled Li Xiaoxue in, Li Hongxiu asked while wiping the sweat from his forehead: "What's the wind today? It blows you, master and apprentice."

"Sister Wushuang, when did you come, you don't call Xiaoxue."

Li Xiaoxue came in and took the young lady's hand and sat down next to her.

The young lady looked back at Li Xiaoxue and asked, "Sister, come and see the sword your brother cast for you."

When Li Xiaoxue heard this, she handed the Qingluan sword in her hand to the young lady.

The young lady reached out to take it, and couldn't help but sink down, almost falling to the ground. "Why is it so heavy?"

Li Xiaoxue giggled at her, her expression exactly the same as hers.

"This is not ordinary metal. It is the best material to find in the palace. It is naturally much heavier than ordinary swords." Li Hongxiu, who was sitting beside him, picked up the pot and poured two cups of tea, and handed it to Li Xiaoxue one cup.

The young lady slowly pulled out the Qingluan sword, and a clear chant echoed in the living room, and a cold light rushed towards her and Xu Jingyun.

Looking at the sword with a blue light, the young lady whispered: "The sword is named Qingluan, what does it mean?"

"Is this my brother trying to commemorate Sister Xiaoqing?" Li Xiaoxue didn't hide it from her and said it directly. After all, the young lady is in her heart, but her future sister-in-law.

"Xiaoqing? What's going on?" The young lady was a little confused.

Li Hongxiu glanced at Li Xiaoxue, then sighed, and briefly told the two of them about what Mu Mu and Xiaoqing had left. Then he glared at Li Xiaoxue and said, "Don't talk nonsense about this in the future."

When Li Xiaoxue heard this, she was so scared that she stuck out her tongue, then nodded heavily.

When the young lady heard this, she couldn't help but murmur softly: "So Mu Mu and Xiaoqing have left? No wonder they named the sword Qingluan... What is the princess's sword called?"

The young lady remembered that Xia Wutong still had a handful in her hand.

Ye Zhiqiu glanced at the gentleman and Li Hongxiu and replied softly: "That sword is called Fengming."

When Li Xiaoxue heard this, she added: "The two swords look the same, but the sound is a bit different."

"Qingluanfengming, it turns out that you have all left the five realms..." the young lady touched the sword body and said softly.

After a while, the young lady returned the Qingluan to Li Xiaoxue.

"Xue'er, what kind of sword does your brother make on weekdays?" After calming down, the young lady looked at Li Xiaoxue and asked.

"Brother? I think he used a purple bamboo sword for years. The gentleman said that his brother cut it on the Tianshan Mountains himself."

Li Xiaoxue recalled it seriously and said seriously as she looked at her.

"Using a bamboo sword? Can this be practiced?" Xu Jingyun asked as he looked at his husband and Li Hongxiu.

Li Hongxiu couldn't help laughing at her and replied, "That sword was cut by himself on Tianshan Mountain. It's been more than ten years, and I can't bear to throw it away."

Gradually, the young lady lowered her head and thought to herself that this guy had used a bamboo sword for more than ten years.

Xu Jingyun sighed subconsciously, looked at her and smiled: "The national master is not attached to external things, he can practice with the simplest bamboo sword. But we are too persistent."

The gentleman nodded and said lightly: "Since he practiced, I did not put pressure on him, nor did I ask him to reach any level of practice. Everything is self-conscious."

Xu Jingyun looked at Li Xiaoxue and said seriously: "Xiaoxue is practicing heavy swords now. This is very rare. Her future practice will be amazing."

Ye Zhiqiu sighed and said, "For me, as long as Xue'er grows up happily, I will not allow her to leave home and practice thousands of miles away."

Li Xiaoxue looked at the young lady and frowned and asked, "Sister Wushuang, where is your Qiuming guy? I haven't come to the imperial city to see me in the past two years. Do you want to come out if you stay in Fengyun City?"

The young lady was stunned, looked at her and shook her head and said, "How could that happen? A few days ago, my mother wrote a letter to bring her younger brother to find her husband and her master's wife."

"That should be on the road. Xueer, can you be more honest?" Ye Zhiqiu frowned at his daughter, thinking that he could not say something casually.

After all, Li Xiaoxue is twelve years old now.

After thinking for a while, he said, "It is rare that your master and apprentice come back from the Royal Academy. Let's live in the mansion for some days. Let's talk about it after your mother comes."

The young lady didn't know how to deal with it, so she had to reply: "After everything, follow the master's arrangement."

At this time, the housekeeper came over and looked at his husband and Ye Zhiqiu and said, "Justice Nalan sent someone to send a message, asking his husband and his national teacher's family to go to Huamanlou tomorrow afternoon."

When Li Hongxiu heard this, his eyes lit up and looked at a group of people and said, "Did that guy Li Ye bring back a message?"

Li Xiaoxue smiled and said, "It must be."
