After entering Ueno County, Lin Haoming did not go to Xuanling City immediately, because Xuanling City was already dominated by Dianqi, and it was impossible for Lin Haoming to dive in. From what Dianyun told him in the end, Dianqi should have already
Become a seventh-level Xuanshi.
The seventh-level Xuanshi was almost the same as Mr. Liu, but later Lin Haoming learned from Dian Yun that Mr. Liu had actually been injured, and his own strength had dropped to the level of fifth to sixth level. Otherwise, based on Lin Haoming's original situation, I am afraid that the opponent
You can kill him directly.
Therefore, in order to get back his things smoothly, Lin Haoming spent the next three days buying two fast horses, riding them alternately, and quickly rushed to Tongde City.
When he arrived at Tongde City, there were still nine days left before the so-called deadline. In other words, within nine days, Lin Haoming had to arrive at Xuanling City as the crown prince of Xuanling Bo.
Tongde City is not anyone's fiefdom, it belongs directly to King Yan Lie, and the lord of Tongde City is Xu Nuo, King Yan Lie's brother-in-law and Concubine De's younger brother.
Yan Lie ascended the throne seven years ago. After the old emperor was defeated by the Chu State more than ten years ago, he was in a state of decline. The country fell into chaos for ten years, and the national power of the Chu State also weakened. Knowing that the new emperor came to power, in Hua
After consolidating the imperial power for several years, he finally began drastic reforms, and the first thing was to take back the noble fiefs. Although even a duke could not train more than 10,000 troops in the fiefs, the great defeat that year was still in Yan's hands.
In Lie's opinion, it was because these private soldiers of the nobles had their own selfish motives and were unwilling to fight with all their strength that the king's division was trapped in a tight siege. In the end, after the king's division was defeated, it fell thousands of miles away.
Yan Lie wanted to take over the noble fiefdoms and military power, and this Xu Nuo was the vanguard. Dian Yun had gone crazy when he couldn't get anything, or he was originally because he was sent to Wu as a hostage.
Resentful, so I would rather destroy it than give it to anyone.
Lin Haoming had to take on Dian Yun's mentality at this time, and what he had to do now was to be the eldest son of Dian Yun who was willing to actively cooperate with the monarch and just wanted to get his title back.
After entering Tongde City, Lin Haoming went out to buy the most luxurious brocade clothes and followed him by car to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
As expected, this outfit at least made the guards at the gate dare not look down upon him, so after he asked to see the city lord, someone immediately went in to inform him.
Half a quarter of an hour later, a man who looked to be in his forties and looked like a housekeeper came out, looked Lin Haoming up and down, and asked: "This young master wants to see the Lord of the City. I don't know your surname. How can I meet you?"
What's the matter, sir?"
"There are important matters related to national security. I have a handwritten letter here. I also ask sir to pass this thing on to me. I believe you will see me after reading it!" Lin Haoming took out the letter he had written long ago and
The family crest representing Xuan Lingbo's mansion was handed to the steward.
After hearing these words, the housekeeper was a little suspicious, but he still asked Lin Haoming to go inside and wait in the side hall of the outer hall while he went to make the call.
A quarter of an hour later, the housekeeper hurried back and said to Lin Haoming: "Sir, my lord promised to see you, please come with me!"
Following the housekeeper, after passing through two corridors and a courtyard, he entered a place that looked like a study. In the study at this moment, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties was sitting upright and reading letters.
It was he who wrote it.
"Junior pays homage to the Lord of the City." Lin Haoming bowed to the other party with great respect. At this time, he had to play Dian Yun, so when he saluted, his whole body trembled slightly, looking a little excited and a little uneasy.
At this time, the housekeeper had exited and closed the door, leaving him and Lin Haoming alone in the study. Xu Nuo had also put down the letter and asked, "Are you Dian Yun?"
"yes!"
"It's useless just to say it yourself. Just some tokens are not enough. After all, whoever has the thing may not be the real person. Moreover, your letter said that you were assassinated by someone sent by Dianqi on the way. If there is no evidence, then it means nothing.
!" Xu Nuo did not give Lin Haoming a good look, but instead questioned him.
"Sir, I have evidence on my body, and this evidence should be able to prove my identity to a certain extent!" Lin Haoming said.
"Oh, take it out and take a look!" Xu Nuo said with some surprise.
Lin Haoming hesitated for a moment, then took out the photo jade and activated his profound energy. The photo jade immediately showed the scene at that time. Although Uncle Qin had no sound when he spoke, it was easy to tell from the shape of his mouth.
What did you say.
"The good nephew is indeed the son of Earl Dian. You have been a hostage in the Wu Kingdom for many years. Now you have finally come back, and you have been killed by your brothers. Now that you have found me, I will definitely take care of it!" After Xu Nuo saw the evidence, he instantly
I changed my previous lukewarm attitude and became enthusiastic.
"Thank you, sir. There are still nine days left until the death of the half-year spirit inherited by the heir apparent. Please come forward for me. I will produce evidence on the spot!" Lin Haoming said, pretending to be grateful but angry.
"This... this is a bit difficult to handle, Dian Yun. Maybe you don't know something. Dian Qi has a very high reputation in Xuanling City in the past few years. Of course I can accompany you, but I'm afraid that the other party will
What a shame, for example, closing the door, grabbing you, and taking away your evidence. You don’t even need to take it away, you just need to crush it. When the time comes, even if you let me go, there’s nothing I can do about it!” Xu
Promise is impossible.
"Then let that thief steal the title?" Lin Haoming said unwillingly.
"Of course this is impossible, but this matter must go through His Majesty!" Xu Nuo said deliberately.
As soon as Lin Haoming heard this, he knew that the other party was waiting for him to express his position. Lin Haoming immediately said: "Sir, if your Majesty is willing to uphold justice for me, I am willing to give up my private army after inheriting the title and return the thousands of miles of land to Dachu.
All you need to do is keep the food."
"Huh? Are you serious about what the prince said?" Xu Nuo asked, seemingly surprised.
"Of course it's true!" Lin Haoming assured.
"Okay, in that case, give me the jade and I will immediately send someone to escort you to the capital to meet the king. Even if Dianqi has inherited the title, with this evidence, I can immediately deprive him of the title and return it to you!" Xu
Nuo guaranteed.
"Then thank you so much, sir!" Lin Haoming bowed again and then presented the photo jade.
Xu Nuo took the photo jade, nodded, and said: "Dian Yun, you'd better not have contact with outsiders in the future, so as not to let others know your identity."
"Everything is subject to the arrangements of the adults!" Lin Haoming said again deliberately showing excitement.
"Okay, okay!" Xu Nuo nodded repeatedly, then asked the butler to come in, and specifically ordered to entertain Lin Haoming well.
However, the other party's enthusiasm made Lin Haoming feel cold, and he had some bad feelings. But at this time, even if he thought of something, he could only pretend not to know anything.
