Now if it adds fuel to the fire, I am afraid that no matter how powerful the Supreme King is, he will not be able to suppress the green fire in Emperor Zun's heart.
It is obviously unrealistic to kill Chen Muyu. Not to mention that Chen Muyu has helped them a lot along the way. Simply speaking of Chen Muyu's superhuman strength, this is a very bad option.
Therefore, Li Xu could only try his best to win over Chen Muyu.
Knowing Chen Muyu's purpose, he immediately took out the secret.
These twenty-three fine stones are of great value and help to him in terms of cultivation and recovery from injuries. But now, for the sake of the overall situation, he can only choose to give up some things.
Only by giving up can you gain.
Chen Muyu smiled and said, "Does this count in the promise between His Highness the Sixth Prince and me?"
"of course not."
Li Xu said, "This is considered a personal gift from me. I should express my gratitude to Brother Yang for his support along the way."
"Then I will be disrespectful."
Chen Muyu was not polite and directly collected the twenty-three essence stones.
It's given for free, there's no reason not to take it.
Seeing Chen Muyu accept the essence stone, Li Xu's expression was obviously relieved.
Since you have collected the items, it proves that the other party has agreed to your plan.
At this time, Chen Muyu said, "Brother Li, you also know what situation His Highness the Sixth Prince is facing now. There are so many masters in the Royal Court. I don't think we can overthrow the Dapeng Dynasty with our own strength. Therefore, once there is a situation in the future,
If force majeure occurs, I will choose to leave..."
"That's natural."
Li Xu nodded. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Chen Muyu's words. On the contrary, he only felt that Chen Muyu was calm.
At this time, if Chen Muyu said that he would risk his life for Peng Yu, he would seriously consider whether Chen Muyu was trustworthy.
Anyway, put your words first, I can help you, but if you encounter a crisis that you can't handle, don't blame me for being unjust.
…
——
The next day, the third prince's residence.
A banquet is a dinner party.
Peng Yu came quite early, but he didn't want to give Peng Ling the impression of being disrespectful to his brother.
Now that he has become a mortal enemy of Peng Kuan, there is no need to offend Peng Ling again.
In the back garden of the palace, there were not many people because it was a family banquet.
In addition to Peng Ling, there are also several major officials from Peng Ling's family.
Peng Yu could recognize that these officials all held important positions in the court, including generals in the army, prime ministers and assistants in the court, and heads of various departments.
Peng Ling's reputation in the court seemed to exceed Peng Yu's expectations.
The lights were brightly lit in the back garden, and a theater troupe was invited to set up a stage.
Thanks to Peng Yu's light, Chen Muyu was also able to take a look at the intangible cultural heritage of the Peng Dynasty.
Orioles and swallows, green and red.
They exchanged glasses of wine, talked and laughed.
Peng Ling is a tall person with a kind face and always has a smile on his face, which makes him feel approachable by nature.
Maybe he had preconceptions, but when Chen Muyu saw this smile, he felt it was a little fake.
During the dinner, Peng Ling and Peng Yu chatted happily, mostly talking about past events, childhood brotherhood, interesting things, etc.
The atmosphere is quite harmonious.
After a long time, in the middle of the banquet, Peng Ling just said, "Sixth Brother went to the Forty-Three Regions, a lot of things happened, and I have already heard about it. Alas, it is a pity that I didn't know about it in advance, otherwise, I would have definitely
I will send someone to provide support so that you, sixth brother, will not be in such a miserable state..."
Sure enough, we got to the point.
Peng Yu felt a little tired. He had no idea why Peng Ling came to him today.
It was just to further alienate the relationship between him and the second child, or even take this opportunity to draw him into the gang.
After going around for so long, my face almost froze with laughter, and I finally got to the point.
"Fortunately, there was no danger. Thank you, Third Brother, for thinking about me."
Peng Yu waved his hand, not wanting to talk more about this matter.
To say that this third child is hypocritical.
How could he have just learned about this news? It has been more than half a month since he was in danger. The third brother has so many spies in the court, how could he not know the plans of the second brother and the others?
If he had wanted to save himself, he would have taken action long ago, but he didn't.
Of course, he didn't send anyone to add insult to injury, he just waited for the development of the matter.
At this point, Peng Yu still has to thank him.
Just imagine, if Lao San also sent someone to kill him, would he still be alive?
Peng Ling did not intend to bring up the topic, but continued, "The second brother is also very cruel. You are his brother, and he can actually kill you. Hey, he has always felt that,
It was me who blocked his way, but I would rather he come directly to me, why bother opening you up..."
"Haha, the second prince is perverse and violent, and can even attack his own brothers. If he is allowed to ascend to the throne in the future, wouldn't it mean that other princes will not be able to escape the liquidation? I am afraid that I and other ministers will not live long."
The person who spoke was the Prime Minister Xiao Changlun. At this time, he was stroking his beard, and his expression of indignation followed Peng Ling's words.
This is the third prince's residence, with absolute security and privacy, so everyone can naturally speak freely.
After Xiao Changlun finished speaking, everyone around him echoed.
"Now the emperor has great trust in the second prince. Among the seven kings, the only ones who can pose some threat to the second prince are the third prince and King Beilu. King Beilu was born to the same emperor as him, so he is the greatest threat.
No wonder he wants to get rid of the King of Beilu and then hurry up."
"Fortunately, His Highness the Sixth Prince is blessed with good fortune and is back alive and well this time. The Second Prince's plan failed and he will not give up so easily. Your Highness the Sixth Prince, Your Highness the Third Prince, and the two of you who are coming next, please be careful. Your Highness the Second Prince is very thoughtful.
He is deep and vicious, but he is capable of anything."
"Yes, our second prince is not like a human king. He will surely become a tyrant when he comes to power. Today, the King of Beilu has suffered such injustice. We will jointly submit a letter to ask for a death certificate from His Highness the King of Beilu in front of the Emperor.
statement."
…
Everyone was very angry with every word they said.
Chen Muyu sat nearby, quietly tasting wine and eating meat, but did not say a word, just watching their performance.
That's right, performance.
These people's acting skills are not very good, and the traces of their acting are too great.
Obviously, the lines are all prepared in advance.
These words aroused the indignation in Peng Yu's heart, and at the same time subtly classified Peng Yu and Peng Ling as victims of the same kind, making Peng Yu feel the same hatred and hatred, paving the way for the subsequent wooing.
"Everyone, please be safe."
At this time, Peng Ling pressed his hands and maintained the order at the scene which was not chaotic at first.
Everyone stopped talking and looked at Peng Ling one after another.
