Chapter 103 Return to Taijing
According to her, this place should be between Donggang and Zhuangliu, the territory of Yilan City, which is quite close to Yilan City. According to Tang Xiao's flight speed on the sea, you can return to the city within one and a half hours. Under the guidance of Princess Yilan, Tang Xiao carried her and the two of them to the gate of Yilan City. After the general guarding the city recognized that he was Princess Yilan, he hurriedly sent the three of them to Prince Lan's Mansion in a carriage.
Originally, King Lan thought that Princess Yilan and Princess Yitai were taken away by the prince of the sea, and they must not be able to come back. They were sad and anxious. Princess Yitai said that she was rescued by Tang Xiao, and King Lan thanked Tang Xiao for his gratitude. After the three of them went back to their rooms to take a bath and change their clothes, King Lan set up a banquet to celebrate Tang Xiao and the other two safely returned to celebrate.
The seventh prince, Zhu Gan, Fang Ji and others were also stranded in the Lan Prince's Mansion for news. That day, after the sea tribe invaded and the Shenming Fort was seized, the king of Lan led more than a dozen masters from the palace to rush to Gengfang Fishing Port, but he only saved the seventh prince and others at the fishing port wharf. Princess Yitai, Princess Yilan and Tang Xiao were all missing.
This time, when the incident happened at the Gengfang Fishing Port, Lan Wang had sent people to report to Taijing City, and was preparing to wait for Fang Ji's injuries to recover, and then go back to Taijing City with them to apologize to the Emperor. Princess Yitai returned safely, which was a great joy for King Lan and Fang Ji. This time, the sea tribe and the traitors on the island flirted with the rebellion at the Gengfang Fishing Port. Although the Imperial Guard suffered heavy losses and the scholars in Taijing City also suffered many casualties, the Seventh Prince and Princess Yitai were still safe, which was a blessing in disgrace.
"The responsibility for all the matters this time is all about me. Thanks to Mr. Tang, Qin'er and Xian'er returned safely, and my heart was relieved. After returning to Taijing City, it doesn't matter what the emperor does." Fang Ji toasted Tang Xiao at the banquet.
"The responsibility for this matter should not be counted on Commander Fang. Those people came prepared. They first pretended to be personnel from the Ministry of Works to seize the Shenming Fort, and then slaughtered us in the Gengfang Fishing Port. There must be secretly helping the court traitors behind them, otherwise they would not have succeeded so easily. After we return to Beijing, I will meet your father with you and explain the situation to him carefully. There should be nothing wrong, right?" The seventh prince Zhu Yu comforted Fang Ji and said a few words.
"Thank you, the Seventh Prince, but this time, so many scholars died. Even if the emperor wants to protect me, it will be difficult for the emperor to spread the anger of the princes and nobles in the capital. No matter why this matter arose, I have to take it. Anyway, I don't want to stay in Taijing, so I let the emperor demote me to the border." Fang Ji was very open about this matter.
The Lan King never said anything. He was responsible for this incident in the territory of Yilan City. Even if Fang Ji took all the responsibility, the Human Emperor would definitely take his anger on him. In anger, he would directly exempt him from his title of prince and demoted him to a commoner. He just didn't know if the newly formed relatives, Tang Yuan, the Marquis of Zhenguo, could help him say a few words.
Tang Xiao didn't think so much. After eating fish in the sea for several days, the birds were about to fade out of his mouth. At this moment, except to raise a glass with them, the rest of the time was spent on the wind and clouds. Lan Wang saw that this future son-in-law was a big eater, so he specifically ordered the chef to cook many dishes to deliver, and the portions were doubled.
After dinner, Tang Xiao went back to his room and closed the door. Others just thought he was tired and went back to sleep, so they didn't bother him. Tang Xiao didn't go to bed. When he was flying on the sea, he was thinking about something and wanted to try it as soon as possible to see if it could be successful.
After adding some weapon-making materials to further sacrifice, the four steel soldiers can become bronze commanders or even silver generals. Tang Xiao is now thinking about another thing. He is considering the sacrifice of the cold iron particles refined from the cold iron cage with talismans onto the four steel soldiers. I wonder if it will greatly enhance the steel soldiers' ability to resist attacks.
If it succeeds, the offensive and defensive power of this magic weapon will be greatly enhanced, and of course it is also an enhancement to Tang Xiao's strength. Because I have been thinking about this all the way, now when Tang Xiao is alone in the room, I can't wait to give it a try.
After calming down his mind, Tang Xiao whistled and summoned the four steel soldiers from the demon-refining and demon-tempering gourd. These steel soldiers were more than meter tall, with a cold face. The steel sword in their hands was filled with cold light. Standing in front of Tang Xiao was like four gods of killing. Despite this, after fighting with Prince Maximilan, Tang Xiao obviously felt that the steel soldiers were not tough enough. The four steel soldiers blocked in front of him and were easily blasted through the crab claws of Prince Maximilan one by one.
There was also Princess Lydia who slapped a steel soldier with one palm, like slapped a piece of tofu.
Ordinary fine steel material is indeed vulnerable to these strong men, but deep-sea cold iron is extremely tough. Tang Xiao is now thinking that if the deep-sea cold iron particles are sacrificed into the skeletons of these fine steel soldiers, they will definitely greatly enhance their ability to resist strikes.
"rise!"
Tang Xiao shouted again, and two talismans, one green and one white, rushed out of his body, wrapping out the deep-sea cold iron particles that Tang Xiao had previously sacrificed to the demon-refining and demon-tempering gourd.
"go!"
Tang Xiao shouted loudly, and blasted two talismans, one green and one white, into one of the steel soldiers' bodies, tightly wrapping the whole body of the steel soldiers. Now Tang Xiao has not refined many deep-sea cold iron particles, and he can only arm one steel soldier for the time being, and he can only replace the ordinary steel in his body in a small amount.
After the tempering, Tang Xiao asked the steel soldier who had quenched cold iron particles and another steel soldier who had not quenched cold iron particles. The steel soldier who had quenched cold iron particles won completely and cut the other steel soldier into several segments. He still stood firm, and the advantages and disadvantages were immediately distinguished.
Tang Xiao then took out several other magic weapons one by one and studied them. He had heard Mu Cang mention before that if there were spirits in these magic weapons, their power would increase greatly. The so-called spirits are the souls of monsters or warriors. After being extracted, they were sealed into the magic weapons. The stronger the souls, the stronger the power of the magic weapons. Tang Xiao collected a lot of souls from the demon-refining demon-quenching gourd, but now Tang Xiao can't find where those souls were collected by the demon-refining demon-quenching gourd, so he cannot seal the spirits for the time being.
After a busy life, Tang Xiao took out the remains of the cold iron cage, used talismans to refine more deep-sea cold iron particles, and then gradually added them to the bodies of the steel soldiers. His martial arts cultivation reached the fifth level of the human Yuan level, mainly to train the power of the talisman. When Tang Xiao could completely rely on his soul to perceive the world, his cultivation would break through to the sixth level of the human Yuan level.
Therefore, further familiarizing yourself with and manipulating talismans is the best way to advance and practice for fifth-level warriors at the Human Yuan level.
...
The convoy of King Lan was ready. This time he would personally send the Seventh Prince, Princess Yitai and others back to Taijing City, and at the same time he went to the palace to face the Holy Tsang and apologize. In the battle of the Gengfang, more than 500 Royal Guardians were still left. Lan himself brought another 500 soldiers. In order to prevent rebel attacks on the road, King Lan even brought more than 100 Shenming crossbow chariots to accompany him, mainly to ensure the safety of the princes and princesses.
When the convoy gathered at the Yilan City Schoolyard to prepare to set off, a rumbling sound of horse hooves ran towards this side.
"Who!?"
Five hundred imperial guards were like frightened birds, and quickly blocked them in the direction where the sound of horse hooves came.
"Prince! Sha Nan Zong Jinsha is asking for a meeting!" A rough roar came from outside the school grounds.
"Oh? Is it Young Master Jin? Let him come here." King Lan waved his hand to the side, and the soldiers made way to both sides. Two very thick men dismounted and walked towards him. When they came to King Lan, they both knelt down and gave a big gift, and then stood up again.
"What happened to Mr. Jin suddenly came today?" Sha Nanzong's business in Yilan City has to pay a lot of taxes and silver to King Lan every year. At the same time, King Lan also relies on Sha Nanzong to ensure the safety of the surrounding area of Yilan City, so he has always been very polite to the people of the Jin family.
