After the court ended that day, Lu Xiang sat slumped in the dragon chair and closed his eyes tiredly. Yu Xiang Yu felt sad. Yu Xiang Yu felt like slapping the picky turtle to death with his shoe, and then went to Fei Ran to tell Shendong that he wanted to return the goods for exchange...

Why do other people's soul service mean working hard and working hard, for the soul master, even to death without any regrets, no fear, no fear, even if they have to go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of fire, they only need the soul master's order to rush forward without hesitation, and they loyally regard the soul master as the only one in heaven and earth!But his soul servant always had an evil sneer on his face, always threatening to reincarnate, and deliberately trying to use him as the soul master as a backer?

That piece of soul paper is definitely a defective piece.

Lifting his fingers to press the stinging joints, Lu Xiang couldn't lift his feet to go back to the palace. He didn't want to face the soul slave who didn't follow the rules at all.

Lu Lu, who didn't find him in the palace and came to the court hall specially, couldn't help covering her mouth and exclaimed after seeing her own brother who hadn't been seen for half a month.

"Royal brother, why have you become so haggard..."

Can you not feel haggard?Let her try to serve that turtle every day.

In particular, the turtle didn't like him very much, and always wanted to kill him so that he could end the contract and reincarnate.

Lu Lu looked sympathetically at the thick blue shadows under his eyes and the lingering fatigue in his brows, and then she cleared her throat.

"Well, I helped the immortal master find a bodyguard. He is a disciple of the Golden Gate..." What she was leaving the palace to do at this time was the most important event for Lu Guo.

As soon as he heard the words "Golden Gate", Lu Xiang felt that it was not worth it, and he felt so aggrieved that his eyes filled with tears.

"Why should I protect that unscrupulous turtle who wants to kill the king all day long, and also find him an extremely expensive bodyguard to protect his turtle's life? There is no justice in heaven..."

Can ordinary people afford to hire the disciples of the Golden Gate?They are expensive!Although each of them is highly skilled in martial arts and expensive and worth every penny, and every disciple they send out never smashes the golden signboard of the Golden Gate, Lu Country is so poor, haha!After spending all the royal sister's dowry to buy soul paper, in order to hire bodyguards, he had to empty most of his treasury.

Lulu scratched her hair, "Isn't there nothing we can do? Xu Duxu is out."

After hearing this, Lu Xiang just looked down at his right hand that had sinfully signed the blood contract and said something unexpectedly.

"...can I chop off my fingers?"

"Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon body!" Chishui, who was guarding the emperor in the palace, rushed forward and pressed his right hand, asking him to give up this crooked idea.

Lu Xiang's eyes were blank: "How about making a pot of turtle soup to replenish my body tonight?" If the purpose of that fairy turtle coming down to earth was just to torment him, then he might as well pretend that he had never made a wish, and there was no such thing as a soul slave that made people want to strangle him.

"Uh, this..." Chishui was obviously choked.

"Okay, stop being coquettish." Lu Lu clapped her hands and was not polite to him at all. "Listen, since the immortal master has been promised, we can't let him die casually. Therefore, no matter how expensive the bodyguard fee of the Golden Gate is, we have to spend the money no matter what. Otherwise, if the immortal master accidentally dies, we will only lose more money."

Everyone with a discerning eye knows that the emperor's younger brother and the Immortal Master are not at odds with each other, but even so, Lu Lu will not let her imperial brother show off and lose his temper with the Immortal Master. Of course, she will not look down on the one who seems lazy and picky, but is very likely to have a hidden spirit.

The most important thing right now is that their Immortal Master doesn't know any mortal martial arts.

No, just a few days after Master Immortal entered the palace and was granted the title, the major religions outside the palace thought he was here to seize territory and sent people to assassinate him several times.And every time, they didn't see Master Xian show any magical power. He didn't even bother to hide, as if he didn't care about his life at all. With no choice, she had no choice but to order Chishui to carry him without dodging or dodging. Master Xian, who only wanted to die, ran away to save his life.

It's just that Chishui can protect him for a day, but can it protect him forever?

As long as the major religious leaders in the country were afraid of the Immortal Master, the Immortal Master's life would be put at the mercy of the butcher's knife, and she would never let the only driftwood in their country be killed inexplicably.

Therefore, in the future, before the Master Immortal takes action to fulfill the emperor's brother's wish and vigorously rectify various religions in the country, she does not mind spending another round of money and spending a large sum of money to hire someone to be his bodyguard.

And looking at the world today, are there any experts who can be hired with just a few dollars?

The answer is the Golden Gate.

That sect that wants money rather than life.

Lu Xiang stared at his imperial sister's non-negotiable expression. Although he knew that what the imperial sister said was correct, from the bottom of his heart he just wanted to slap that turtle that was so hostile to mortals.

"Can you kick that idle turtle who picks things up and eats all day without doing anything?" At the worst, I can buy a piece of soul paper to make a wish.

Lu Lu glanced at him lightly, "It's a waste if you kick it, and the soul paper is very expensive." Where does the spare money come from in the treasury?

"What evil did I commit..." Lu Xiang held his head in his hands in frustration, and when he thought of continuing to get along with that turtle, he was filled with indescribable grief and anger, "I promised him out because I wanted him to share my worries.Lao, the one who saves the country from water and fire, but he just doesn't like me from head to toe.You think, there are so many flying in the sky, crawling on the ground, and buried in the garbage, why do I not allow any of them, but I am unlucky to allow him?"

"..." Chishui patted his head and looked at the Lihua pattern on the roof of the hall wordlessly, while Lu Lu nodded his fingers, lowered his head and looked at the smooth floor of the hall intently."

Just at this moment when Lu Xiang was still filled with self-pity, there were faint sounds of shouting and killing in the distance outside the palace, which made Lu Xiang, who was not sure what was going on, raise his head again.

"What's this outside?"Lu Xiang turned his head and looked at Chishui, who had a solemn look on his face.

"Back to the emperor, the green and yellow sects of the witchcraft religion will hold a witch sacrificial ceremony soon. The leaders of the green sect and the yellow sect have reached a consensus a few days ago, saying that the country has been in trouble since the emperor ascended the throne. In addition, the emperor issued a decree to confer immortal master a while ago, so..."

"So what?"

Chishui honestly?End, "They thought that the emperor was deceived by villains, so they planned to express his sympathy and invite the immortal master to sacrifice witches in order to change the fate of the country."

"Please come to your side?Witch sacrifice?"Lu Xiang slapped the table with his big palm, feeling that this was an extreme injustice to him, "That turtle has not done anything yet, and there is no chance that his uncle will be willing to condescend to do something for me in the future. If I, the emperor, are not anxious, why should they be anxious?"

Lu Lu looked embarrassed, "Ahem, Emperor brother..." It's fine if he secretly thinks about this kind of thing in his heart, he doesn't need to say it out loud.

Lu Xiang, who was so annoyed that he just wanted to hit a wall, seemed to be discouraged. He sat back in the dragon chair with no energy, trying to find some remaining sanity in this time of internal and external troubles.

"Sister Royal, when will the bodyguards arrive?"There are too many martial arts masters outside the palace. Even if the Yulin Army can stop the religious mobs who use religion as their sword, they can't stop the martial arts assassins. The only way they can count on now is the prime minister masters of the Golden Gate.

“Just these two days."

“Chishui."Lu Xiang sat up suddenly, straightened his waist and told him carefully, "Transfer all the Yulin troops in the palace to the Immortal Master. He will be imprisoned for me in these two days. Before the Golden Sect sends people, nothing will happen to him."

Chishui raised his head in panic, "Then what should you do, Your Majesty?"The manpower in the palace is insufficient. If all the soldiers are transferred to the immortal master, what if those religious gangsters break into the palace and hurt the emperor, or want to take the opportunity to kill the emperor and change the dynasty?

This is a good question.

If the Immortal Master dies and dies, although he, as the soul master, will be fine, his hope for reform will be in vain, and the large sum of money they spent to buy the soul paper will also be wasted.

And if he accidentally meets his ancestors, then the immortal master who is a soul slave will die with him, and he can immediately fulfill his wish and turn around and reincarnate. Therefore, before saving the immortal master, he must first find a way to save his own life.

Lu Xiang rubbed his eyebrows and said reluctantly: "I will hide with the immortal master. I will leave it to you for the next two days..."
