Huangxiu

Chapter 386 Rumors
He couldn't help but feel fascinated.

Then he began to study the Zhanxu Sword Technique again. The more he studied, the more he felt its mysteries were.

The changes of reality and illusion contained therein opened his eyes.

There is a leap in vision and perception.

At this moment, he realized that he was too clumsy and tried too hard in the past.

But failed to do it with ease.

The fundamental problem is that the reality and the imaginary are not emphasized, and the reality and the imaginary are not combined better.

He knew the concepts of reality and illusion, the speed and yin and yang of swordsmanship, and also the techniques of reality and illusion.

But there is still a thin layer of window paper between us and understanding the true truth of reality and illusion.

If you want to break through this layer of window paper on your own without any external help, you need to gain insights day after day, and occasionally have a flash of inspiration and suddenly understand everything.

But under the guidance of the Zhanxu Sword Technique, coupled with the enlightenment from the Miaoling Pearl, as well as the accumulation of experience and knowledge from his previous life, he suddenly realized.

This kind of epiphany can only be encountered by chance.

He gently closed the thick booklet and smiled.

In this world, it is probably extremely difficult to comprehend the principle of reality and illusion.

The person who wrote this book of Zhanxu Sword Technique is truly a powerful person with amazing wisdom, which makes people feel ashamed of themselves.

Of course, in the eyes of most people, this article is full of absurd words, with confusion and incomprehensible.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He put down the secret book, floated out of the house, drew the Qingying sword from its sheath, and transformed it into a clear and cool sword light.

The Qingying Sword appears and disappears, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, flickering and erratic, unpredictable.

He returned the sword to its sheath and wanted so badly to laugh out loud.

The difference between reality and illusion is truly mysterious, as if the heaven and earth have opened their arms to me, allowing me to enter a new world and see a completely different scene.

The same world is already another world.

The flying knife flew out of the sleeve and turned into a ray of clear light and shot towards the rockery not far away, and was about to hit a bluestone.

The shadow of the flying knife flashed and suddenly became blurry.

The shadow passed through the bluestone and when it appeared behind, it became solid again and became a real flying knife.

Chu Zhiyuan's face suddenly turned pale.

The Zhanxu Sword Technique consumes too much mental energy, causing the flying knife to change from real to virtual and then from virtual to real, which instantly drains all the mental energy.

In terms of the power of swordsmanship, the current Zhanxu Sword Technique is not as good as the Yujian Technique.

At least the Sword Controlling Technique does not require such consumption, and the power is not much different.

But the potential of the Zhanxu Sword Technique is even greater. More importantly, when it is combined with the Yujian Technique, the power will be even more astonishing when performed at the same time.

-

The next morning, Chu Zhiyuan arrived at Mingwu Palace in the morning light.

When he arrived, there were already quite a few people in the Mingwu Palace martial arts training ground.

Under his encouragement, the princes and the crown prince arrived earlier and earlier.

He was the same as usual, but it was already late.

Everyone looked at him with sympathy.

Chu Zhiyuan found it strange, so he came to Chu Zhiting, Chu Zhichuan and Chu Mingxuan and said unhappily: "Ninth brother, tenth brother, what are you looking at?!"

Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan were doing the Zi Yang Posture and looking at him with a smile.

Chu Zhiting chuckled and said, "Fourth brother, we feel it's not worth it for you."

"What's wrong again?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Chu Zhiting said: "I would rather die than marry you, my fourth brother. Isn't this Dazhen's eighteenth princess too much?"

Chu Zhiyuan frowned and looked at him.

Chu Zhichuan coughed lightly and said, "Fourth brother, we heard that the Eighteenth Princess's injuries were not that serious and her appearance could be restored, but she took the opportunity to pretend to commit suicide in order to avoid marrying you, fourth brother."

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him, then at Chu Mingxuan who had an angry expression on his face.

Chu Mingxuan said: "Old Four, this is correct, right?"

"How do you know this?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

"It's spread all over Yujing City. Everyone is criticizing the Eighteenth Princess and calling her blind!"

"If not blind, what is it?" Chu Zhiting snorted: "Among the princes, who can compare to the fourth brother? She actually treated him like a shoe, she is really blind!" Chu Mingxuan said: "Let alone the princes, even if we add all the princes, the fourth brother is still one of the best."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Uncle Eighteen, I've been a bit busy lately and don't have time to drink. Did that annoy you, Uncle Eighteen, by flattering me so much?"

Chu Mingxuan laughed and said, "What do you mean by flattery? I don't flatter anyone. I'm just telling the truth. Tell me, who is stronger than you? Let's not talk about anything else, just the cultivation level."

Among the many princes, only a few could reach the perfection of a Grandmaster.

Only the second elder brother, Prince Jing, achieved the status of Grand Master, and the tenth elder brother, Prince Ying, achieved the status of Grand Master. The rest of the royal brothers did not reach the status of Grand Master.

These are princes, a generation apart and much older.

Chu Zhiyuan coughed lightly and said, "Uncle Eighteen, please don't hurt me."

Chu Mingxuan laughed and said, "Do you think that if I don't mention it, no one will know?"

"It's better not to say anything."

"Okay, okay." Chu Mingxuan agreed reluctantly.

I feel that it is unnecessary for Chu Zhiyuan to keep a low profile at this time when he has such a great reputation.

But since Chu Zhiyuan insisted, he had no way to object and could only obey, and could only force himself to suppress the urge to show off.

"Fourth brother," Chu Zhichuan frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "This eighteenth princess is too..."

Chu Zhiyuan asked: "Since His Highness the Eighteenth was injured, how many people have seen His Highness the Eighteenth? How do we know that his injury is not that serious? How do we know that he can recover?"

Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan were stunned.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Think about it carefully. Don't just follow what others say. Use your brains."

"Then..." Chu Zhichuan frowned and said, "Is this someone spreading rumors?"

Chu Zhiting asked puzzledly: "Why spread this rumor?"

They felt puzzled. Why was there any need to spread this rumor?

Chu Mingxuan frowned and said, "Old Four, is someone trying to discredit you?"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "It's hard to say now. It may be aimed at me, or it may be aimed at the Eighteenth Princess."

"This move is really vicious. It not only damages your reputation, but also the reputation of the Eighteenth Princess." Chu Mingxuan said bitterly: "The Zhenwu Division should take action and catch the guy who spread the rumor!"

As he spoke, he glared at Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan.

The two of them tried their best but were ultimately unable to transfer into the Phoenix Camp and remained in the Zhenwu Division.

At the last moment, it was suppressed by the emperor.

They are still the dean of Zhenwu Division and have already established a firm foothold.

Chu Zhiting gritted his teeth and nodded slowly.

Chu Zhichuan said, "Uncle Eighteen, it's not that easy to find the rumor spreader."

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Forget it, there is no need for that. The person may have already run away."

Chu Mingxuan asked, "Old Four, do you have any suspicions about anyone?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "There are too many enemies, and they can frame you. There's no need to think too much."

"...Yes, you do have a lot of enemies." Chu Mingxuan thought for a while: "Not to mention the Da Lie Dynasty, there are a lot of evil sects, and Dameng... Could it be Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess?"

"It's possible." All three nodded.

They felt that Li Hongzhao's behavior would destroy the marriage between Dazhen and Dajing.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I'll go ask her today."

……

After he finished his session at the Ministry of Rites and read the files, he did not return to the palace for lunch, but went directly to the Dameng Pavilion in the Sifang Pavilion.

When the Stepping Cloud Cavalry saw that it was him, they quickly reported inside.

Soon he was led to the Dameng Pavilion, where he saw Li Hongzhao sitting in a small pavilion.

Li Hongzhao was wearing a loose red robe and sitting at a stone table, holding a teacup in one hand and a book in the other, her beautiful face looking serene.

Chu Zhiyuan entered the pavilion and sat opposite Li Hongzhao: "We haven't eaten yet, let's talk while we eat."

Li Hongzhao glanced at him and waved his hand.

The two beautiful maids nodded slightly and retreated.
