Chapter 177: The Bone Boat Records: White Bones, Chapter 177: Wan Jiang Nuanmo saw An Gaoqiu beside him and took the initiative to say hello. An Gaoqiu smiled and said, "Miss Second is becoming more and more beautiful."

Jiang Konghou said: "Eunuch An praised it, but I can't afford to be the figure of the little girl Pu Liu."

An Gaoqiu smiled and said, "Mrs. Sang is too humble. Who in the world knows the talent that Ling Ai has." The two talented women of Dayong are definitely not worthy of being frivolous.

When Jiang Konghou saw him, he remembered the possible extra test today and whispered: "Eunuch An, what if there is a draw today?"

An Gaoqiu said: "If there is another draw, the five judges will discuss the additional test."

“What to try?”

An Gaoqiu shook his head, but he couldn't say it. In short, it would not be beneficial to Qin Lang. Qin Lang is a smart guy. He would not give him the victory he had finally achieved in vain. An Gaoqiu also hoped that his friend could win a refreshing victory. He had complained about the Queen Mother Xiao Zirong's approach in this matter. The Queen Mother changed. Only those around her could notice this change. Although he served the Queen Mother all day long, he felt that the Queen Mother became more and more unfamiliar.

Qin Lang and Zhang Yanzong came to the square in front of Chunqiu Hall. The previous target had been removed and the square was cleared.

Master Yichan whispered a few words to Kōkai. Kōkai entered the square to supervise and read out the rules in the venue loudly. The two of them could not fight each other in life and should not use magic weapons. Once the victory or defeat was decided, they would stop immediately.

Kong Hai picked up the Zen Staff and flew through the square. The Zen Staff in his hand drew a circle with a radius of ten feet on the ground of the square, with the circle shining brightly.

The competition was held in this circle. Whoever was forced out of the circle was judged to be lost, and the time limit was half an hour. This was also a way to protect both sides. He had already felt a fierce murderous intent from Zhang Yanzong. Although both sides signed a life and death document, he did not want any party to make any mistakes.

The two looked at each other, and Qin Lang said, "The Sixth Prince is a wise man, why bother with stubbornness?"

Zhang Yanzong said: "To me, Long Xixi is no longer important!" He slowly pulled out the long sword from his waist, and the air conditioning was shining when the blade was deshewn.

Qin Lang understood what Zhang Yanzong meant. Honor was much more important to him than Long Xixi. If Zhang Yanzong could not regain his face today, everyone in the world would soon know that he had lost to him. This shame was unbearable to Zhang Yanzong.

Qin Lang said: "Does the Sixth Prince want to fight life and death?"

Zhang Yanzong shook his head: "I want your life!" The long sword was deshewn, the sword body was black, the edge of the blade was as white as snow, and the edge was serrated, looking like a large feather. The sword was named Qinghong, but the sword body was extremely heavy.

Qin Lang also drew out his Yanling sword. The Yanling sword was also a treasure sword. It was the weapon of a generation of powerful general Xu Baotang.

Zhang Yanzong rushed towards Qin Lang at a big step, and Qin Lang was also rushing towards the opponent at the same time. The first move was to try the opponent's strength first.

Zhang Yanzong's sword rolled up a strong wind and rushed straight to Qin Lang's face. The real master was clever and clumsy, without too many fancy moves. He made a sword straight and neat, and killing his opponent was the only purpose.

Qin Lang was taught the sword technique in the third update of Meng Sang. Although he used the Yanling sword, his ideas were consistent in the battle against the enemy. Qin Lang's speed of his sword was still half a beat slower than Zhang Yanzong. In terms of martial arts, Qin Lang was at the fourth level.

As swords and swords intersect, Qin Lang's body shook violently. Zhang Yanzong's power was extremely powerful, and his potential was like a wave of dark tides attacking Qin Lang. Qin Lang had to choose to retreat and avoid the edge for the time being.

Zhang Yanzong would not give him this opportunity. Then the second sword slashed over again. Qin Lang used the Yanfeng sword to block Zhang Yanzong's Qinghong Sword.

The sword is named Qinghong, but its weight is twice that of Yanling Knife. Zhang Yanzong is elegant in appearance but is born with divine power. He also takes a strong way to cultivate martial arts. After Qin Lang competed with him, he knew that by simply speaking of power, he would be at a disadvantage.

The first head-on battle was to judge Zhang Yanzong's true strength. When Zhang Yanzong used the second sword, Qin Lang had already thought of a countermeasure. As long as he was guaranteed to be unbeaten, he would win the final victory. Now Zhang Yanzong is much more passive and must win to tie him.

As soon as the Yan Lingdao and Qinghong Sword came into contact, Qin Lang used the force to retreat to the rear.

Zhang Yanzong was not afraid of him retreating. Zhang Yanzong's tactic was to use a storm-like attack to force Qin Lang out of the circle as soon as possible.

When Qin Lang retreated, his soul power had quietly been pouring into his legs, and he used his quick steps to write and ran wildly within the range defined by the sea.

Zhang Yanzong immediately realized Qin Lang's intention. This guy wanted to make the most of the rules. As long as he could not defeat him within half an hour, or could not force him out of the circle, even if the two of them had a good fight, the fight against Zhang Yanzong would mean that they would lose all the battle.

How could Zhang Yanzong give him this opportunity? He chased him wildly, but Qin Lang's quick writing was a mysterious defense technique among the seven attacks and four defenses of the deep and darkness. It was also the only footwork. Not only was it extremely fast, but its footwork was also erratic. Zhang Yanzong was about to catch up with him, but suddenly this guy changed his direction and instantly distanced him farther away.

The onlookers thought they would see a fierce duel that would change the color of the wind and the clouds, but after a brief battle it became a situation of chasing and escaping. It was not so much a competition as a competition of foot strength.

Lu Buyao and Master Yichan met, and both showed a faint smile. Lu Buyao secretly praised him. These five competitions made him see clearly that Qin Lang, a young man. This kid is the best choice in terms of talent and adaptability. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most outstanding person in the younger generation he has seen.

The marriage of a princess would not have attracted such attention, but Xiao Zirong deliberately interpreted the incident with twists and turns, and used this incident to make Prince Qing Long Shixing and Sang Jingtian dirty. Shortly after the new emperor ascended the throne, who gave her such courage?

Lu Buyao was a little confused about the relationship between Xiao Zirong and Sang Jingtian. If they were in the same camp, why would Xiao Zirong openly embarrass Sang Jingtian? Among the four ministers of the resolute resignation, who did she win over?

Xiao Zirong had already returned to the palace. After all, he persuaded the little emperor to go to the dragon throne of Tianhe Palace. Not long after he went to court, the little emperor shouted to pee. The ministers held back their laughter. Xiao Zirong had no choice but to end today's court meeting, leaving Sang Jingtian, He Dangzhong and Li Yifeng, three ministers in charge of their lives.

On the way to the Qinzheng Hall to discuss matters, Xiao Zirong received the latest news from Babu Academy. What surprised her was that Qin Lang was the one who had the advantage now. The two sides had entered the last competition. If Qin Lang was defeated, there might be an additional test. The five judges did not dare to make decisions without authorization. After discussing with An Gaoqiu, they still sent someone to the palace as soon as possible to ask the empress dowager and ask her to set a new topic.

Xiao Zirong walked while listening to the little eunuch describing what happened today, especially when he heard the sentence, he had no colorful phoenix flying wings, and had a little understanding of each other, and was amazed in his heart. Unexpectedly, he underestimated Qin Lang. This kid is really a talented man.

Xiao Zirong decided on a little bit of a question and set the additional test questions. If Zhang Yanzong won the fifth game, he would have another one to discuss politics, so that the two would express their respective political views on governing the country.

Even the little eunuch heard that the empress dowager obviously favored Zhang Yanzong. Zhang Yanzong was the sixth prince of Daye Kingdom. Discussing politics was a compulsory course he had since childhood. Qin Lang was just a civilian. If he really got the extra test, Qin Lang would definitely lose.

The extraordinary event in Xiao Zirong's eyes was just a small matter. The princess's marriage was not that important at all. She didn't have to care about the feelings of Long Shixing, the princess, who was the nameless prince of Qing, but she had to be afraid of Sang Jingtian, who was the head of the life-care minister. She tried to tamper with this matter, and her real intention was to test Sang Jingtian's bottom line.

In fact, in Yongchun Garden, as long as Sang Jingtian objected, she would not insist on this matter, but Sang Jingtian still said nothing after all. First, it proved that Qin Lang was not important to Sang Jingtian, and second, it proved that Sang Jingtian did not want to be related to Prince Qing, the declining prince. She wanted to see Sang Jingtian's true intentions clearly.

When the three ministers of the resolute order came to Yangxin Hall, the Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong was already sitting on the screen. Xiao Zirong said, "There are a few things to discuss with the Ai family to invite the three adults over here."

"I listen carefully!"

Xiao Zixuan said: "One is about the resignation of Lu Xiang. The Ai family has been thinking about it. Lu Xiang is a pillar of the country. Although he is a little older, he is still in good health. When the Da Yongzheng was employed, the Ai family wanted to stay Lu Xiang for a few more years. But since he insisted on quitting the court this time, it is not too difficult. The Ai family is preparing to let Lu Xiang go to the Babu Academy to cultivate pillars for Da Yong. What do you think?"

"The Queen Mother is wise!"

Xiao Zixuan said: "The Ai family hates hearing this kind of cliché the most. The Ai family is a woman, and the pattern is definitely incomparable to all adults. But the Ai family's determination to revive Da Yong is no less than that of all adults. Da Yong is originally from the Long family."

He picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea ceremony: "The country cannot be without a form for a day. Since Lu Xiang retired, the position of Prime Minister was suspended. The Emperor of the Grand Emperor saw the limitations of the system of Three Dukes and Nine Ministers during his lifetime, so he wanted to innovate, but it was a pity that his ambition was not fulfilled."

The three of them looked at each other, and the Queen Mother still insisted on implementing the three provinces and six ministries system.

Xiao Zirong said: "You have also seen the development of Daye Kingdom over the years. If there is no innovation, there will be no such complete changes. If we continue to follow the old system, we may be quickly surpassed by Daye Kingdom."

Several people thought to themselves that it was not very soon, but they had already surpassed it, but they did not think it was related to the so-called official system.

"Since you are unwilling to speak, then the Ai family will propose one candidate, and Lord Sang is responsible for implementing the reform of the dynasty system, and Lord Li is responsible for assisting. As for Lord Li's original position, it can be handed over to the Tingwei Xu Daoyi. All Xu Daoyi's past affairs are transferred to the Ministry of Justice."

Although it is clear that Sang Jingtian is appointed as prime minister, it is almost clear. Sang Jingtian replaced Lu Buyao as prime minister, which was expected. As early as when Emperor Shunde appointed him as the head of the four ministers of life before his death, most of them thought that although Xiao Zirong didn't say much, everyone understood that the court guard Xu Daoyi had been assigned other positions, and Chen Qiongnian's front was no longer accessible, and the laws of Da Yong were in his control in the future.

Sang Jingtian bowed and said, "Thank you, the Empress Dowager, I am so frightened."

Xiao Zixuan said: "The two lords should leave first. The Ai family and Lord He have a few words to say separately."

After Sang Jingtian and Li Yifeng left, Xiao Zixuan walked out from behind the screen.

He Dangzhong stood up in a hurry, Xiao Zixuan signaled him to sit down, and he also sat down opposite He Dangzhong, and said softly: "When the late emperor died, he told me that he would ask Sang Jingtian if he didn't understand internal affairs. If he was undecided in foreign affairs, he could ask He Qing. In military affairs, only the Qing family could rely on."

"I am willing to devote my life to Da Yong until my death!"

Xiao Zirong said: "Ai family knows that you are all loyal ministers who serve the country. If the emperor was not young, the Ai family would not want to go to the court, but the late emperor left the instructions and the Ai family had to obey. Do you understand?"

He Dang nodded in a key point, but in fact he couldn't see through Xiao Zirong's real thoughts.

Xiao Zirong said: "The reform of the government is imperative. The Ai family wants to ask Lord He to be responsible for the establishment of the Ministry of War. As for the candidates for the Ministry of War, the Ai family will not ask about it, so Lord He just let it go."

This is equivalent to sending He Dangzhong a reassurance, indicating that his status will not be affected in any way, and that the military power is still in He Dangzhong's hands, and he has given him the power to choose officials of the Ministry of War. This is not ordinary trust.

"Thank you, I will do my best to do this."

Xiao Zirong nodded and said, "Your second son He Shanming is also a handsome talent, and he hasn't gotten married yet, right?"

He Dangzhong said: "He is not in a hurry, and he always makes some achievements before considering the matter of getting married."

Xiao Zixuan said: "The Ai family will help you pay attention to this matter."

Sang Jingtian and Li Yifeng walked out of the Qinzheng Hall, and Li Yifeng said respectfully: "Congratulations to Prime Minister..."

Sang Jingtian stopped him with his eyes. Without a formal order for a day, Lu Buyao was still the prime minister of Dayong, and he was still just a deputy.

Li Yifeng understood what he meant and smiled and said, "What does Lord Sang think about the reform?"

Sang Jingtian said: "You and I don't have this ability just because we are just there. We have to discuss specific matters with the Taiwei."

Li Yifeng said: "I think that Daye Kingdom was just a wilderness at the time, but I didn't expect that they would develop so rapidly after implementing the new system and new laws."

Sang Jingtiandao: "It is not a bad thing for the Empress Dowager to reform and reform. The decline of Da Yong is gradually declining. Fundamentally, there are still institutional problems. Our mission is to find omissions to be compensated in time."

"The Queen Mother does not want to make up for it, but to make fundamental changes!"

Sang Jingtian smiled and said, "Mr. Li has a very thorough understanding of the Empress Dowager's meaning."

Li Yifeng laughed: "How dare you, how dare you, how dare you, how dare you guess your own holy intentions."

Sang Jingtian had long seen that Li Yifeng had already fallen to the empress dowager Xiao Zirong's camp. Among the four ministers of resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolute resolutely. However, from the empress dowager who kept him just now, it can be seen that the empress dowager will inevitably entrust him with important responsibilities. Logically speaking, He Dang Chong will not refuse.

After breaking the engagement, Xiao Zirong was about to promote himself to Prime Minister Da Yong, and he was a little slapped with a sweet date. Xiao Zirong was not a stupid woman and understood that she must choose between him and Lu Buyao, so she finally chose herself.

But Sang Jingtian also understood that this woman's balance method was very impressive. She has started to make arrangements from now on, try to balance power as much as possible, and avoid the situation of monopolizing power.

Li Yifeng said: "I wonder if the public selection of Babu Academy's son-in-law has resulted in it?"

Time has passed, and Qin Lang hid in the circle with his unpredictable footwork. Zhang Yanzong also tried his best. Now he realized that Qin Lang was a very difficult opponent, and this guy was too cunning. As long as he dragged it for a moment, the competition would end in a draw, and the draw would mean he would lose.

Zhang Yanzong had a lot of force but had nowhere to show it, and said loudly: "Qin Lang, if you are a man, you will fight me upright."

How could Qin Lang be fooled by him? He laughed and said, "I only seek the result of my work and don't ask about the process. Why should I give you a chance?"

Zhang Yanzong was furious and shook the light Hong sword in his hand. The edge of the blade actually decomposed and turned into millions of tiny sharp blades. The cold light wrapped around Qin Lang. Before the competition, Monk Konghai announced on his behalf that magic weapons were not allowed to be used during the competition, and the specific definition of magic weapons was not clear.

Zhang Yanzong has never used the disintegration attack of the Qinghong Sword because he does not want to be verbally apart, but the situation in front of him has left him with no other choice. If Qin Lang is allowed to escape, he will have no chance.

A curse came from the stands: "Didn't you say that magic weapons are not allowed? Are you shameless? He violated the rules and was sentenced to lose!"

Qin Lang's response was beyond Zhang Yanzong's imagination. His body turned and fled like a gyro. The barrier formed by the blue soul power protected his body. When the fine blades formed by the disintegration of the Qinghong Sword shot into the barrier, blue lotus flowers actually grew on the barrier.

At this moment, Qin Lang was writing quickly, drawing the ground into a prison, and combining the three defenses of the wonderful brush with flowers. When Lu Xingqiao helped him decipher the talisman on the white bone pen, he once said that although there are only seven attacks and four defenses on it, thousands of changes can be formed through combinations.

Qin Lang has tried simple combinations in the past, and this is the first time he has combined three different soul techniques together.

The blue lotus composed of soul power swallowed the dense sharp blades into the center of the flower, and the blooming blue lotus turned into buds to bloom. As Qin Lang's soul power released, the blue lotus suddenly opened, and the sharp blade inside rushed towards Zhang Yanzong like a heavy rain.

Zhang Yanzong did not expect Qin Lang's defense ability to be so strong. With his wrist, Qinghong drew a circle, and the fine blade returned to his nest like a swarm of bees.
