The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 549: The Twenty-Four Solar Terms, the Five Declines of Heaven and Man
"It's all here..."

Zhang Jiuyang smiled and said in a voice transmission: "Don't worry, I am sure that if His Majesty really wants to kill me..."

"Then let's see who wins."

It was obvious that a large number of ambushes had been set up in the palace, which was full of dangers and was all prepared for him.

But Zhang Jiuyang was not angry but happy instead.

He actually wanted to make a big fuss in the palace, but as the head of Longhu Mountain, he couldn't just rebel for no reason. Where would the Imperial Observatory and the Yue family be?

In this feudal dynasty world, Longhu Mountain will also lose its reputation.

But if the emperor took the initiative to kill him, then don't blame him for resisting. Even if he really failed and accidentally killed the emperor, it could be considered excusable.

You're going to kill me, I can't show mercy.

Of course, the more important reason is that if they can cause a big disturbance in the palace, they can completely muddy up the stagnant water in the capital, and also take the opportunity to test the emperor and the three women who are suspected to be the Moon Goddesses.

So he chose to enter the palace.

"Noon."

Yue Ling's voice rang in his ears, sonorous and powerful.

"If you don't come out by noon, I will bring people in to break in."

No matter how many dangers there are in the palace, she will not sit idly by and watch her husband.

"Okay, by the way, take this first and try to see if you can use the trick against me to catch a big fish."

Zhang Jiuyang quietly handed something to Yue Ling, and then walked into Chengqian Gate with a calm expression.

The moment the first foot stepped into the palace gate, the hidden energy in the entire palace suddenly moved, as if a dormant glacier was slowly cracking.

The spiritual energy within a radius of hundreds of feet seemed to be locked tightly, and it was difficult for Zhang Jiuyang to absorb and refine it with his cultivation level.

He felt a tremendous pressure. At this moment, what was in front of him was not the palace, but a ferocious beast awakening from its slumber.

The Eight Diagrams Formation, the Dragon Veins of China, and countless masters of the Imperial Palace were all staring at him in secret at this moment.

This kind of pressure is so great that it would probably make a sixth-level immortal tremble with fear, as if he were being manipulated by others and his life and death were in the hands of others.

This is also the reason why most of the Six Realms True Immortals are unwilling to set foot in the capital.

After all, no one likes to go from being a high and mighty person to being a fish at the mercy of others.

Zhang Jiuyang, however, was calm and composed, walking forward with ease, and glancing around casually, causing many people who were secretly watching to feel a sharp pain in the eyes, as if they were being pricked by needles.

"Disciple, take your weapons and follow me into the palace."

His voice was clear. Although he was in the vortex of the energy of heaven and earth and was about to step into the dangerous terrain of dragons and tigers, he remained calm and neither humble nor arrogant.

He already has the bearing of a master.

"Yes, Master!"

Shao Yun looked up at the mountain-like figure with his eyes full of admiration. He spoke in a loud voice, hugged the box tightly in his arms, and followed the pace of his master.

Ali was so excited that her body was shaking.

Not scared, but excited.

This was the scene she had always dreamed of, charging from the South Gate of Heaven to the Lingxiao Palace, driving the old emperor under the table, and then shouting, "The emperor will take turns to sit at my house, and next year it will be my turn."

If Ninth Brother had not strictly ordered her not to take the first step, she would have wanted to try out the newly learned Fire-pointed Spear Technique long ago.

……

Outside Chengqian Gate.

Yue Ling took a deep look at the backs of the three people, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

After the three people left, she did not hesitate and immediately came to Ziqingfang in the capital. It was already the 9th hour, and all the shops in Ziqingfang were open. Business was extremely busy, with people coming and going, and most of them were noble ladies in gorgeous clothes.

Most of the shops here sell silks, satins, rouge and powder, and the largest rouge shop in the capital is located here.

As Yue Ling stepped into the threshold of Taoxia Pavilion, a pretty and lively maid came up to her with a smile on her face.

"Sister, you are so beautiful. Are you here to buy rouge? A batch of black ink has just arrived in our store..." Although the little maid was not very old, she had a sharp eye.

Although the clothes worn by this heroic and pretty elder sister were not very expensive, her demeanor was extraordinary. She stood out among many noble ladies dressed in jewels and was unforgettable.

The power of that kind of superior is even more frightening than those high-ranking officials.

"I want to see your shopkeeper."

After Yue Ling finished speaking, he slapped the badge on his waist and said calmly, "Tell her that Yue Ling wants to see you."

The little maid was shocked, and her eyes were shining brightly.

"You, you are Yue Ling, General Yue——"

As a woman who was granted the title of nobility and made great achievements, Yue Ling's name has long been known throughout the country and is regarded as a role model by countless women.

After a while, the shopkeeper of Taoxia Pavilion came jogging over. She was a middle-aged woman, looking at Yue Ling with awe and curiosity.

"Minglie Hou is here to visit. Do you have any instructions?"

Yue Ling took something out of his bosom and handed it to her, saying in a deep voice: "I want to see the owner of this bellyband."

When the female shopkeeper saw the light golden bellyband embroidered with a phoenix pattern, she was shocked and looked at Yue Ling curiously, saying, "But that person said that the person holding this item should be a handsome young man..."

"Can I see her?"

Yue Ling interrupted her and asked.

"This... I need to inform him first and then wait for news. Even if I can see him, it will probably be three to five days later."

Yue Ling frowned and said, "It's too late. So, you can tell her something for me now."

"You say."

"Tell her that Zhang Jiuyang might be in danger in the palace. If she still wants to cooperate in finding that thing, she should help him."

"Okay, I'll let you know."

……

Royal palace, royal garden.

The eunuch led him to a pavilion and said respectfully, "Master Zhang, His Majesty is currently discussing matters with Prime Minister Qin. Please wait here for a moment and enjoy the flowers. A palace maid will bring you tea later."

Zhang Jiuyang smiled faintly and said, "Okay, no hurry."

He wanted to see what the emperor was up to.

The official left in a hurry.

Zhang Jiuyang looked around. It was already winter and there was still snow on the ground, but the flowers in the yard were still in full bloom, full of vitality.

Even the trees are lush and green, with no signs of withering.

This is because there are twenty-four solar terms formations in the imperial garden, made up of twenty-four kinds of chalcedony. The formations are linked together and extremely mysterious, giving the impression of being a heaven and earth of their own, and can freely adjust the seasonal solar terms in the formation.

Zhang Jiuyang looked at the flowers, but it seemed as if he saw figures falling to their deaths in the deep valleys of the mountain stream.

These chalcedony are extremely difficult to carve out, as they often grow on cliffs. Every time one or two ounces are dug out, a large number of lives are required.

The entire imperial garden was almost covered with chalcedony.

He sighed softly, and suddenly all the flowers lost their color.

Whose blood was used to dye those brilliant colors?

After a while, many palace maids came in a line, each holding a jade bowl in their hands, filled with the most exquisite snacks.

The most beautiful one among them bent down to pour tea for Zhang Jiuyang.

As the sound of pouring tea began, a voice quietly entered his ears.

"Don't drink the tea. It contains the Heavenly Five Decay Pills offered by the Western Regions' Garolan Kingdom. They are specially designed to destroy the golden body of the Brahma Sect!"
