The capital of Chu State Rongcheng, the imperial palace.

The Chu State worshiped fire, with phoenixes as the divine birds in the country, and the imperial palace was mainly red and yellow.

Gao Zhengyang followed his senior brother Zhengfeng and walked in the magnificent palace for a long time before he arrived at Wude Tower.

The building is five stories high, with an open rooftop at the top, with pine and bamboo in the east, Bihu in the south, and flowers in the west.

At dusk, the sunset is red and the red clouds are bright. The refreshing evening breeze comes towards us, and the hustle and bustle during the day is swept away.

A girl stood in front of the railing and looked at the sunset. She was wearing a gorgeous red palace outfit, but she stood there more charming and brighter than the sunset.

Gao Zhengyang has never been close to women. The more beautiful a woman is, the more careful he is. For him, people do not distinguish between men, women, age, but only strength.

But this girl is different. Gao Zhengyang saw confusion and confusion in her bright eyes, just like his current state. This resonated with him and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

The female official and a father-in-law standing next to the girl both felt that Gao Zhengyang was a little rude, and their eyes looked at Gao Zhengyang more severely, even with a bit of reprimand and warning.

But here, Princess Qingling doesn't speak, so it's hard for them to speak.

Gao Zhengyang indifferently glanced over the female official and father-in-law, and made a simple comment in his heart: he was weak but vicious, so he should not be careless.

Zhengfeng Zhenjun noticed that the atmosphere was a little nervous, but his face was silent. He smiled and bowed and said, "I have seen Your Highness, I have seen you."

Princess Qingling slowly turned around and said calmly: "The True Lord is a well-known man trusted by the father, and there is no need to be too polite."

Zhenjun Zhengfeng has a close relationship with the emperor, and is also the leader of Xuantian. He is also a master of his generation and has an extremely transcendent identity. Although Princess Qingling's identity is important, he does not need to be too respectful.

He smiled and said, "Your Highness, this is my junior brother Gao Zhengyang, he is responsible for protecting your safety during this trip."

Princess Qingling looked at Gao Zhengyang curiously, and saw that he looked indifferent and cold in his eyes. She stood without saying anything and moving like a clay puppet, like a dead object.

She asked, "I heard that the seven swords of Xuantian are famous all over the world, but I have never heard of Taoist Gao's name."

Zhengfeng Zhenjun hurriedly explained: "Zhengyang is the first in the Secret Sword Hall, responsible for maintaining the sect's laws and regulations. He does not make any progress outside, so he has no reputation. But his swordsmanship is the best in Xuantian and is unattainable!"

Zhengfeng Zhenjun knew that although Gao Zhengyang had a strong martial arts skills, he had no reputation. This was his weakness. Because he could only talk about his name and could not suppress others. In order to avoid Princess Qingling's misunderstanding, he must explain it carefully.

"The best in Xuantian?"

Princess Qingling said with some doubts: "Is that even more powerful than the True Lord?"

"Zhengyang's sword technique is extremely fierce and fierce, and I am far from competing with the sword. Although the world is big, I think there are few people who can compete with Zhengyang in sword technique!"

In order to promote Gao Zhengyang, Zhengfeng Zhenjun did not hesitate to use his reputation to support him. He was famous all over the world with his golden elixir method, but he did not think that his sword technique would be worse than his name as a master.

Zhengfeng Zhenjun's words aroused Princess Qingling's intense interest, and she said, "In this way, Master Gao is the number one swordsman in the world?"

Zhengfeng is a little embarrassed. There are so many swordsmen in the world, who can afford to be the title of No. 1 in the world? Although Gao Zhengyang is strong, it is very difficult to say that he is the best in the world.

What's more, if he admits this, it will be endless if it spreads later.

The masters of swords in the world are afraid that they will line up to challenge Xuantian Sect. From then on, there will never be peace.

Zhengfeng Zhenjun explained seriously: "Swordsmanship has reached the extreme realm, and the difference may be only a slight difference. The swordsmanship also has changes in life and restraint. We cannot say who must be better than who... "

Princess Qingling nodded in a vague way, and thought for a while: "There are also masters in the palace. Gao Dao's sword technique is so great, why not demonstrate it?"

Zhenjun Zhengfeng's face changed slightly, and he regretted that he was talking too much. If it were the emperor, he would have just smiled and would not take it too seriously. Princess Qingling has a girlish character and insisted on trying Gao Zhengyang's sword technique.

If it were other swordsmen of Xuantian Sect, they would naturally wish to show their sword skills in front of Princess Qingling and make a name for themselves. Even Zhenjun Zhengfeng himself, if he really needed it, he could roll up his sleeves and show off.

Only Gao Zhengyang is not good. He never competes with others in swords. To be precise, he only knows how to fight and cannot compete. Comparing with him in swords will either die or be seriously injured. There is no third ending.

Zhengfeng Zhenjun said in a little embarrassedly: "Zhengyang is a real swordsman, and his sword technique is cruel. If the sword comes out, it must be bloody. The important place in the palace is even more suitable for comparison with swords."

Princess Qingling was a little unhappy. Zhenjun Zhengfeng insisted on arranging someone to come to protect him, but she was not willing to show her martial arts. This was too arrogant!

Princess Qingling also believed that Gao Zhengyang arranged by Zhenjun Zhengfeng was definitely a master. But her noble family members valued more not ability, but attitude.

The world is so big that there are more capable people. If you want to enter the royal family, you need to be loyal and humble, rather than self-righteous swordsman pride.

No matter how strong a swordsman is, can he destroy the city and the country? No matter how powerful an individual's force is, it still has its limits. The so-called "within five steps, people can compete with the country." Then you also want to have the opportunity to walk within five steps before talking about it!

Although Princess Qingling was not satisfied, she had to give Zhenjun Zhengfeng face.

This true king is ambitious, has a similar scent to his father and has great influence. Moreover, true king Zhengfeng is also very kind.

Princess Qingling said with ease: "I am tired too. Zhenjun and Taoist Master Gao are also going back to rest. It will not be too late to meet again tomorrow."

After Zhengfeng Zhenjun bowed his head and bowed, he left under the leadership of the guards.

Princess Qingling stood on the rooftop and could still see Zhengfeng Zhenjun and Gao Zhengyang leaving. When she thought of Gao Zhengyang's cold and cold look, she couldn't help but smile and said to herself: "This man looks like a cold swordsman, which is so interesting."

The female official Zuo Wei whispered: "This man is unruly, too sharp and does not know etiquette. He still needs to be adjusted and taught."

The eunuch Zhang also said with a sharp voice: "Your Highness, although you are employed, this kind of swordsman in the world needs to be responsible for the right person."

"Okay, I'll leave this to you. But be careful, don't lose the face of Zhenjun Zhengfeng, and don't lose his spirit."

Princess Qingling nodded. The two people around her were a little bit distorted. They were quite loyal to her and served her for many years. They still had to give the necessary respect.

For her, Gao Zhengyang's affairs were just small things after all. What really made her sad was that she was suddenly sent out to get married.

This marriage is likely to break the three kingdoms' stalemate. It is not just Chu and Yun, and I don't know how many people strongly oppose this matter.

When she went there, she didn't know how many open and secret arrows she had to face. Just thinking about it, she felt confused.

What made Princess Qingling even more confused was why she suddenly felt alienated from everything around her, as if everyone and things had nothing to do with her.

Princess Qingling felt annoyed and lost interest in everything.

Eunuch Zhang and Zuo Wei both saw that the princess was in a wrong mood, and they both consciously left.

When they arrived at the next level, the two of them looked at each other, and there was a bit of weirdness in their eyes.

"Will Gao Zhengyang suddenly appear disrupt the plan?"

Zuo Wei asked with some concern.

Eunuch Zhang shook his head and said, "This person is unruly, and the princess doesn't value him."

After thinking for a while, he said, "But things have changed. I want to go out of the palace to inform you. It's better to prepare early."

Zuo Wei nodded. Although Gao Zhengyang was unknown, he was the junior brother of the Master Xuantian Sect after all. He was of great origin and should be taken seriously.

Eunuch Zhang comforted: "Don't worry, we can go back after doing this."

Zuo Wei nodded, turned and sighed again: "I have been in Chu for thirty years and can't remember the appearance of my hometown."

Eunuch Zhang also sighed: "This time we will be able to go home..."

That being said, both of them showed a little hesitation in their eyes. They had been in the Chu Palace for too long, and the power and wealth they had fought for most of their lives were here.

If they leave Chu State and return to their homeland, they have to start from scratch. But their lives are all held in the hands of the people. If they are really disobedient, they can destroy their entire family just by handing them a note.

That night, the news of Gao Zhengyang from Xuantian Sect quietly spread.

Gao Zhengyang was not aware of this. According to his past habits, he got up early the next morning to practice the hour sword, and adopted the East Purple Qi to temper the internal strength of the thirty-six Zhoutians, and then washed and changed clothes.

Then, pack up your luggage, wear all kinds of equipment, and wait with peace of mind. It was not until noon that Zhengfeng Zhenjun came over.

The two of them rode their horses and met with Princess Qingling's brides and sent off their brides outside the south gate.

The bride-sending team is very high-quality, equipped with one thousand infantry, five hundred cavalry, and hundreds of coachmen.

A convoy of hundreds of large chariots was walking in the long and winding under the crowd of soldiers, raising dust and smoke on the long road.

The convoy walked very slowly, and after only ten miles out of the city, he stopped to camp.

The princess's phoenix chassis is surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside. The most central area is full of palace maids and eunuchs. No outsiders can get close to it.

In this area, Gao Zhengyang is the only real man. The tent he lives in is next to Princess Qingling’s tent.

Gao Zhengyang sat at the entrance of the tent and watched the palace maids shuttle in and out of the tent. It must be said that the palace maids all have dignified appearances and can be called beauty.

Even if he was serving the person, his posture was graceful and elegant, and extremely pleasing to the eye. However, when Gao Zhengyang looked at it, several young palace maids became obviously shy and their faces were blushing.

Gao Zhengyang somehow couldn't help but want to whistle. But he suppressed this inexplicable impulse.

During dinner, a palace maid brought four dishes and one soup to Gao Zhengyang, which were cooked by the chef, and it was full of color, fragrance and taste.

Gao Zhengyang just smelled it and knew that the dish tasted very good. But he didn't move his chopsticks.

He didn't take a bite until the dish was completely cold.

When Eunuch Zhang got the reward, he came over and thought Gao Zhengyang had any opinions. Naturally, he would not publicly offend Gao Zhengyang, and asked with a smile: "Master Gao is not used to this taste. In this way, you can tell the miscellaneous people what you like to eat. As long as it is not too biased, you can ask the kitchen to make it."

Gao Zhengyang said calmly: "No need, the world is dangerous, I never eat anything outside."

"Well……"

Eunuch Zhang was shocked. He had never met such a person before, and he didn't know what to say.

He hesitated and said, "What should Taoist Master Gao eat?"

Gao Zhengyang said: "I have fasting pills to satisfy my hunger, so there is no need to worry."

"Oh well……"

Eunuch Zhang left in a hurry, and he became more alert to Gao Zhengyang.
