Without waiting for Li Qing's instructions, Qinglong and Xuanwu had already rushed forward, trying to save Li Jiuye from the back of the bald eagle Xiaobai.
However, Xiao Bai didn't seem to be interested in the two of them. He flapped his wings suddenly and blew out two strong winds, which actually blew the two Heavenly Wheel masters staggering around and backing away, unable to get any closer.
When Li Qing saw this, he sighed again, moved his feet slightly, and instantly appeared above the bald eagle.
I don't know whether it was because he liked him or because of Zhong Wen's instructions. Seeing Prince Wu approaching, Xiao Bai immediately stopped his power and stood quietly on the spot, like a sculpture, letting the handsome guy in white come closer.
Li Qing pulled out his sword and swung it twice, cutting the soul-binding rope wrapped around Li Jiuye into several pieces. He then reached out to remove the strip of cloth blocking his mouth, and eased his father off the eagle's back.
He slowly helped him down.
"Old, third child!" Li Jiuye had just regained his ability to speak, and he gasped loudly, "Follow me back to the imperial capital quickly, that damn Zhong Wen is seeking power and usurping the throne. We, father and son, will work together to kill this traitor.
Reclaim the throne!"
"Father, you've had a hard journey all the way." Li Qing firmly supported his exhausted body and said softly, "Please go inside and have some tea."
"The situation is urgent, how can we have time to drink tea?" Li Jiuye said angrily, "Follow me quickly, if you go back late..."
The conversation stopped abruptly midway through.
Looking at the simple wooden house in front of him, Li Jiuye said in surprise: "Lao San, is this your residence?"
"Yes, this was built by Erchen, Zhuque Qinglong and others." Li Qing said with a slight smile, "Although it looks simple, it is quite comfortable to live in, and the scenery outside is also very good."
Li Jiuye stared blankly at Li Qing, feeling that the son he had grown up with seemed to be a little strange.
Seeing that Li Jiuye did not enter the room, Li Qing did not force him, but just winked at Suzaku beside him.
The beautiful woman in red with a pretty face and a hot figure understood what they were saying. She walked lightly into the wooden house and quickly came to the two of them carrying a tea tray and tea sets.
"Father, Zhong Wen has already mentioned what happened in his letter." Li Qing picked up a teacup and handed it to Li Jiuye, "Including what the second emperor brother did and his plan to make Yiru the emperor.
idea."
"It's good that you know it, so I won't have to repeat it again." Li Jiuye took the tea cup, raised his head and poured it into his mouth. He then wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve and said, "This kid actually wants to make a woman the emperor."
, He is really the most evil person in the world. Before his conspiracy succeeds, please leave with me quickly. Let’s go to the Governor’s Mansion of Southern Xinjiang first to find Xia Nanfeng, and then return to the Imperial Capital to summon Master Jiu, Commander Li and others, and gather several spiritual masters.
I will definitely take his life!"
"Father, our Li family made a mistake this time." Li Qing suddenly sighed.
"What?" Li Jiuye was stunned when he heard this, and then said angrily, "Did you also betray me? Rong'er died at the hands of that kid, do you not even care about the revenge of killing your brother?"
"Father, this matter was caused by the second emperor brother provoking the Shangguan family first, and now that the other party has retaliated, it is entirely his own fault." Li Qing replied calmly.
"You, you actually said such a thing? He is your brother!" Li Jiuye could hardly believe his ears.
"Father, you must also know." Li Qing looked directly into Li Jiuye's eyes and said word by word, "My son left the imperial capital and came all the way to Southern Xinjiang Province to avoid the eldest brother. Chase."
"This..." Li Jiuye was speechless for a moment, "You..."
Being able to successfully sit on the throne of the emperor, he naturally knows better than anyone else that there is rarely a true family relationship between the royal children. Brothers often kill each other for the throne and fight to the death. He uses the so-called "brotherhood" to Reprimanding Li Qing is just a high-sounding rationale, which is not very convincing.
"Not to mention that Zhong Wen saved my life, he also made outstanding contributions to the entire Daqian Empire." Li Qing said with a trace of apology in his voice, "Please forgive me for not taking action against him."
"Okay, very good!" Li Jiuye was so angry that he was so angry, "You are really my good son. If you don't want to take action, someone will come to help me. We will never see you again!"
After that, he waved his sleeves and turned around to leave angrily.
However, suddenly a white shadow flashed before his eyes, and Li Qing's slender figure appeared.
"Bad boy, why are you stopping me?" Li Jiuye cursed.
"I would also like to ask my father to accompany me to stay in this mountain for a few days." Li Qing said slowly.
"No time!" Li Jiuye said impatiently, "Get out of here!"
Li Qing just stood in front of him, saying nothing and not getting out of the way.
"How dare you!" Li Jiuye finally realized that Li Qing actually wanted to trap him in Qingyun Mountain. He was so angry that his mouth twitched and his voice kept trembling.
"Zhong Wen said in the letter that if you want to save your father's life, you must stay in this mountain for a few years." Li Qing's face showed a look of guilt unconsciously.
"You eat food inside and outside, but you don't listen to your father's words." Li Jiuye sneered, "You do obey an outsider's words."
"Father, I can't defeat Zhong Wen, nor can I offend Piaohua Palace." Li Qing smiled bitterly, "I have no choice but to wrong you."
"Why didn't I see that you were so useless before?" Li Jiuye became even more angry, "I just want to go down the mountain, do you still want to do something to me?"
"Father, now you only have the cultivation level of Earth Wheel." Li Qing was not angry, but just smiled and said, "I want to keep you, so there is no need to take action."
"You, you...bastard!"
At this moment, in Li Jiuye's eyes, this talented and calm third son was more annoying than ever.
"Father, as the saying goes, 'If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood.'" Li Qing persuaded him kindly, "What's the harm in temporary gains and losses? Only by preserving your life can you have the possibility of making a comeback in the future."
Li Jiuye glared fiercely at the graceful and graceful Prince Wu in front of him, without saying a word for a long time, while Li Qing always had a smile on his face, showing no hint of impatience.
I don't know how long it took, but Li Jiuye suddenly let out a long sigh, squatted down with a dejected face, held his head with both hands, and fell into a sluggish state.
…
"Brother-in-law is indeed extraordinary."
In the palace of Princess Izumo, Shangguan Tong looked at the garden that was bustling with people not long ago but is now deserted. He was full of emotions, "I thought that if I wanted to support the Queen in the throne, I would have to go through many difficulties, but I didn't expect that you would solve it so easily."
.”
"How many people can keep their true intentions in the face of life-threatening danger and huge interests?" Zhong Wen smiled faintly, "Besides, they are clamoring so loudly, they are just worried that the Queen's ascension to the throne will harm their own interests. Who can
Are you really thinking about the empire and the people?"
"Having said that, in the eyes of many people, it is a deviant act for a woman to be in power." Shangguan Tong shook his head and said, "If your treasure hadn't been too shocking, the result would have been really unpredictable."
"For secular forces, the value of a spiritual master is too important." Zhong Wen nodded slightly, "It is even directly related to the rise and fall of a family. If it were me, I might not be able to resist such a temptation."
"Yes, if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't even dare to think about the treasure that can instantly advance you to the rank of spiritual master." Shangguan Tong couldn't help but sigh.
"Hey, you gave all your treasures to outsiders." Shangguan Mingyue on the side pouted her cherry lips and said dissatisfiedly. "Why don't you leave some for our business? I'll complain to my aunt."
After surviving this catastrophe, Shangguan Mingyue, who was emotionally depressed for a time, quickly cheered up and regained her unruly and lively temperament.
I don't know if her state of mind has been tempered, but Zhong Wen feels that the temperament of this Shangguan eldest lady seems to have changed. Every move, every move, every frown and smile exudes an increasingly mature charm, and the tender cheeks can be broken by blows.
, revealing a faint blush, which is so gorgeous that people dare not look at it.
Originally Shangguan Tong planned to play a double act with Zhong Wen and be the first "role model" to stand up and support the Queen. Unexpectedly, General Xue's unexpected statement caused Shangguan and his daughter to lose the opportunity to appear.
Xue Ping put the orb in his suit and entered the spiritual realm in front of everyone, which shocked the powerful people and almost drove them crazy.
The subsequent direction of the plot seemed to be a natural one. Under the stimulation of Xue Pingxi, all parties expressed their stance and willingly joined the Queen Li Yiru's command.
In the end, the so-called "five" orbs fell into the hands of Xue Pingxi, General Zeng Rui, Prime Minister Sun Jian, Nangong Tianxing, the head of the Nangong family, and Lin Zhenyue, the minister of household affairs.
In addition to Xue Pingxi, the "Dragon-Breaking Sword", General Zeng Rui and Nangong Tianxing also took the orbs and entered the once elusive and unattainable supreme realm on the spot.
Changsun Jian and Lin Zhenyue did not swallow it directly, but took it with them, not knowing who they would take it to.
For those forces that expressed their stance late and failed to obtain the orbs, Zhong Wen was not stingy and gave them the "Spirit Ascension Pill" that could help Earth Wheel masters improve their cultivation, as well as numerous gold-level exercises and spiritual skills.
Cheats.
Stimulated by these extremely alluring treasures, the many dignitaries gathered at the Princess Mansion could no longer remain calm. All of them had double vision and their pupils were gleaming. They only regretted that they did not express their opinions in time, thus missing the Spirit Master Orb.
, and I was afraid that if I agreed too late, even the elixirs and secret books would slip away, and I would be left far behind by the other forces.
These bosses, who were usually aloof and repulsive to others, were now like the uncles and aunties rushing to buy discounted eggs in the supermarket, scrambling to convey their wishes to "respect the Queen" to Zhong Wen, turning the profit-seeking people into
His true nature is exposed.
As a result, the only person who has gained nothing is the Shangguan family who has been on Zhong Wen's side from the beginning. It is no wonder that Shangguan Mingyue is dissatisfied.
"Yue'er, don't lose your temper." Shangguan Tong said with a smile, "If my brother-in-law hadn't helped me this time, the entire business would have fallen into the hands of traitors. The fate of you and me is horrifying to think about."
Shangguan Mingyue suddenly fell silent, recalling the horror of the "Blood Spirit Seed God Powder", and her heart palpitated uncontrollably.
"Miss Shangguan is right." Zhong Wen chuckled, "If the good stuff doesn't go to outsiders, how can all the good stuff be made cheaper by outsiders?"
After saying that, he turned his right hand and a pale golden orb appeared in the palm of his hand. He came to Shangguan Mingyue in a few steps and stuffed the bead into her white and smooth catkins: "Here, for my own sake, I can
It has been reserved for a long time."
"Who is one of your own!" Shangguan Mingyue felt a warm feeling coming from the palm of his hand. She couldn't help but blush slightly, and spat lightly. In her watery eyes, she could not help but feel joy.
.
Shangguan Tong looked at his shy daughter, and then at Zhong Wen, who was smiling. He felt something was wrong in his heart, but for a moment he couldn't figure out what the problem was.
Before he could think about it, Zhong Wen suddenly turned around and put an almost identical pale golden bead into his hand: "Brother, this is yours."
"Me too?" Shangguan Tong was taken aback and hesitated, "You actually gave us two of such a precious treasure. How can you do this?"
"Why are we so open-minded among ourselves?" Zhong Wen said with a smile, "If I only give you one, what's the difference between me and those outside? If Sister Junyi knows about it, she will definitely not be able to spare me. Besides, this thing
Sons are far less precious than you think, and I still have plenty of them."
When Zhong Wen mentioned Shangguan Junyi, Shangguan Mingyue's eyes dimmed and she felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Well, in that case, I'm not welcome." Shangguan Tong hesitated for a moment, and finally stopped refusing and happily put the orb into his arms, "If you need my help in any way, just say it is one of my own.
Don't be polite."
"Of course." Zhong Wen laughed, "I'm not a polite person!"
"By the way, aren't you worried that those people will take advantage of you and change their minds when you go back?" Shangguan Tong suddenly thought.
"So what?" Zhong Wen said nonchalantly, "The five families who got the beads all have some friendship with me. Except for the head of the Nangong family, it is almost impossible for the other four to rebel. If the remaining small fish and shrimps dare to say nothing,
Xin, I don’t mind teaching them a profound lesson!”
"It's best if you know what's going on." Shangguan Tong nodded.
"Without further delay, we will hold the enthronement ceremony tomorrow." Zhong Wen clasped his fists at Shangguan and his daughter, "I'll go help Yiru make some preparations, you two can do whatever you want."
After saying that, he tapped his toes, jumped up, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Shangguan Mingyue stared blankly in the direction Zhong Wen left, silent for a long time.
"Yue'er." Shangguan Tong's gentle voice suddenly came to my ears.
She woke up and turned around to look doubtfully.
"Do you like him?" Shangguan Tong suddenly asked in a confused manner.
This ordinary sentence was like a divine thunder falling from the sky, hitting his heart. Shangguan Mingyue turned pale in an instant, and there was no trace of blood on his face.
…
"This should be right here, right?"
On the main street on the south side of Nantian City, Zheng Qiyuan looked at the location marked on the invitation in his hand, then looked up at the magnificent building in front of him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Leader, this is... the City Lord's Mansion?"
Han Li, who was standing on his left, was surprised and said, "This 'Black Lotus' actually hosted a banquet for the heroes of southern Xinjiang in the city lord's palace. I'm afraid it has a lot of background!"
"What about the City Lord's Mansion?" Wang Dadao on the right shouted loudly, "Even if the City Lord offends me, I will still chop him down with a knife!"
"Brother Wang, the daughter of City Lord Zhao is currently studying art in Qingfeng Mountain, and is from the same school as my sister." Zheng Qiyuan hurriedly dissuaded him, "When you meet the City Lord later, you must not lose your etiquette."
"Oh? So he is one of our own?" Wang Dadao nodded when he heard this and said in a rough voice, "Then I will be polite to him."
"Let's go, let's see with our own eyes." Han Li touched the saber on his waist, his voice full of pride, "Who is this 'Black Lotus'?"
Zheng Qiyuan walked forward slowly and handed the invitation to the guard. As expected, he walked smoothly and entered the city lord's palace smoothly.
"The dignified city lord's palace actually allows us to bring knives inside?" Han Li asked in confusion, "Is the defense a little too lax?"
"Perhaps the Black Lotus Sect is overconfident." Wang Dadao chuckled, "They didn't take our southern Xinjiang heroes seriously at all."
The three of them chatted one after another, and soon entered the inner courtyard under the leadership of a maid from the city lord's palace.
"so many people!"
The bustling scene in the courtyard surprised the three of them.
"The old man is Yu Zhenzi of the 'Qingcheng Sword Sect', this big man is Shi Fei, the sect leader of the 'Golden Lion Sect', and the one holding two scimitars in front is Ding Peng, the sect leader of the 'Full Moon Sect'..." Han
He has been famous for many years and has a wide circle of friends. When Zheng Qiyuan gently tapped the identities of the people in the hospital, he found out that they had so many family treasures that he knew them all.??
