"It's time to drink water!" Xuan'er walked out of the room with a smile and milk tea. Tang Lie leaned the overweight giant sword in his hand on the tree trunk, took the towel from Xuan'er's hand, and wiped the sweat off his face.
Fu Mujin looked at Tang Lie with admiration. This young man's physical ability was beyond his imagination. It seemed that the kyanite had quietly changed his body structure. After his correct guidance, Tang Lie's strength changed rapidly. The change.
Tang Lie drank up the milk tea in the cup with a big gulp, and poured another cup without wanting to finish it. After drinking three cups in a row, he wiped the corners of his lips and sat down opposite Fu Mujin: "Old man, what do you think of my performance tonight?"
Fu Mujin smiled calmly: "You have definitely improved a lot compared to when I first met you, but you are still far from what I want."
Tang Lie said: "If you continue like this, I don't know when you will be able to master the skill of using water as a sword!"
Fumujin shook his head and said: "Your body structure is completely different from ours. Your innate physical ability is far inferior to ours, but your acquired expansion ability is far better than ours. Before your physical ability reaches a certain level, , it is impossible to practice profound fighting techniques, otherwise it will only be haste but not speed."
Tang Lie understood this truth. He smiled and said: "Practicing martial arts is not for fighting and killing. Strengthening my body is my original purpose."
Fu Mujin glanced at Tang Lie meaningfully and said, "Is this really the case?"
Tang Lie chuckled. Of course, he did not do it to strengthen his body, learn fighting techniques, and improve his combat effectiveness. Firstly, it was to deal with the dangerous enemies around him, and secondly, he wanted to have the opportunity to find crystal stones and seize them in the future. in hand.
Fu Mujin said: "In a few days, your physical strength should be able to control the holy dragon tattoo on your right arm, but if you want to truly unleash its power, you must go through long and arduous training."
He put down the tea cup, took out a worn-out parchment scroll from his arms, and handed it to Tang Liedao solemnly: "This contains my experience on fighting, and also records some information related to crystal stones, which you may use in the future. With."
Tang Lie said in surprise: "Old man, you want to leave?"
Fu Mujin nodded: "There is something I have to do. It's time to leave."
Through this period of contact, Tang Lie unknowingly regarded Fumujin as his own relative. When he heard that he was leaving, he felt sad in his heart: "I don't have any relatives in this imperial capital. If you If you are willing, please take me away with you."
Fu Mujin smiled and shook his head: "Tang Lie, some things must be done by myself!" He stared at Tang Lie and said: "While improving your physical fitness, you must learn to control yourself. I believe that one day, you will achieve what you want. wish.”
Tang Lie sighed and said, "Actually, I don't want to stay here. Prince Xuan Yuan has long had a grudge against me, and Adams has also offended me. If I stay here, I will be framed by them sooner or later."
Fu Mujin smiled and said: "You can only solve your own problems by yourself, no one can help you..." He lowered his voice and said to Tang Lie: "The secret between us should never be known to others."
Tang Lie nodded heavily.
If it weren't for the purpose of paying homage to Yan Yue, Tang Lie would never have set foot on Mei Qian's farm. Now his identity is no longer the slave that Mei Qian ordered around. Emperor Xuan Sizhe personally gave him the jade plaque. The matter had already spread throughout the streets and alleys of the imperial capital. In the eyes of everyone, Tang Lie had become the emperor's benefactor, and even Mai Qi had to show courtesy to him.
When Tang Lie came to Yanyue's grave, he happened to see Mai Qian. She stood quietly in front of the pond, staring at the water lilies on the water, thoughtfully. When she heard Tang Lie's footsteps, she turned around hurriedly, holding up her delicate hands.
She subconsciously wiped it on her pretty face, but the reddish circles under her eyes still suggested that she had just cried.
"You're here!" Mai Xi gave Tang Lie a rare smile.
Tang Lie nodded coldly. He had always blamed Mei Xi for Yan Yue's death. As time went by, the trauma in his heart was never erased.
Mai Qian's eyes fell on Yan Yue's tomb, and she said thoughtfully: "If Yan Yue knew that you cared about her like this, she would be very happy in her heart."
Tang Lie couldn't help but think of the tragic situation of Yan Yue's death. He felt a sting in his heart and his eyes showed the light of hatred.
Macy's eyes did not look at Tang Lie: "A woman is happy when someone cares about her."
Tang Lie said sarcastically: "It seems that Boss Mei must be very happy. Doesn't General Langyuan always care about you?"
Macy sighed quietly and said: "In his heart, maybe I will never be as important as my military exploits."
Tang Lie frowned slightly, not understanding why she would sigh like this.
"He has already gone to the border this morning!"
Tang Lie nodded slowly, finally understanding why Maisie's mood was so low.
Maisie said: "How wonderful it would be if there were no wars in this world!"
Tang Lie suddenly discovered that this ruthless slave owner also had a sentimental side. Where there are people, there will be disputes. Where there are countries, there will be wars. Women all over the world like to dream, but reality is often cruel.
Tang Lie didn't want to continue talking to her. He turned around and wanted to leave. After taking two steps, he turned back: "There is something I have always wanted to ask you. Has the contract been burned?"
An extremely cunning smile appeared on Macy's beautiful face: "Is that contract still important to you now?"
Nameless anger rose in Tang Lie's heart. He could almost conclude that Maisie must have kept the contract he signed. Although the contract no longer meant much to him, the hatred and insults in the past made him
Unable to forget it, Tang Lie said coldly: "Do you know why Lang Yuan is never willing to marry you?"
Macy's heart trembled. This was the last thing she wanted to mention, but this damn Tang Lie just brought it out to stimulate her nerves.
"Because you are too smart and cunning. No man in this world likes a selfish woman like you!" Tang Lie said these words almost viciously.
Macy's pretty face lost all color, and she suddenly screamed: "Get out! You bastard, get away from me!"
Tang Lie had already expected that she would react like this and strode out the door. To be fair, after he stimulated Mai Qian, he did not feel the pleasure of revenge. Instead, he felt a trace of guilt in his heart. No matter what Mai Qi had been
No matter what I have done, it is always too cruel to say such words, and even lose the grace of a man.
A drizzle started to fall in the sky at some point. Tang Lie wiped the rain off his face with his hand. Looking back at the farm, he saw that it had long been shrouded in mist and rain. He wondered if Maisie was still crying sadly...
The war between the Xuanwu Empire and the Lande Empire intensified. Under the situation where his own side was retreating steadily, Emperor Xuan Sizhe finally decided to send reinforcements to march in person. It was the rainy season, and the entire imperial capital was gloomy and gloomy, with continuous rain all day long, shrouded in a sense of sadness and gloom.
in the atmosphere.
The business of Tang Lie's clinic has obviously become much more deserted, perhaps because most of the men in the imperial capital were sent to the front line. Prince Xuan Yuan, Lester and others seemed to have changed their focus due to the changes in the war, and no one came to provoke them anymore.
Tang Lie is a little doctor. The eldest princess Xuan Siling has never taken the initiative to look for him since she and Tang Lie parted ways in the palace that day. Tang Lie was very happy and spent most of his time practicing Fumujin and teaching him
His fighting skills and control over himself have become stronger and stronger. The dragon-shaped tattoo on his right arm has never appeared again, and when he sees beautiful women, he no longer has the same eager impulse as before.
The most outstanding performance was that he and the stunningly beautiful Xuan'er were in the same room, but they always respected the etiquette and did not do anything excessive.
After Fumujin left the imperial capital, Tang Lie also began to plan his future destination. From what he learned, this continent was not peaceful. There were bloody battlefields everywhere outside the crisis-ridden imperial capital, and it was difficult to find a peaceful paradise.
Xuan'er seemed to have seen clues from Tang Lie's behavior. All she could do was to take better care of Tang Lie and silently care about his life.
During this period, everyone in the imperial capital was enveloped in a heavy gloom, and Prince Xuan Yuan was no exception. Unlike others, he was not worried about the temporary disadvantage of the Xuanwu Kingdom's army, but because of his father.
A secret message before the personal expedition.
"Are you telling the truth?" Xuan Yuan stared at the palace manager Huo Gao with a gloomy face.
There was no expression on Huo Gao's fat face. The diamond-encrusted fingernails on his right hand were raised high and he said sharply: "It's absolutely true. The emperor did draw up a secret edict before the expedition. There is a high chance that the edict has already been
It fell into the hands of the princess."
Xuan Yuan sneered: "What on earth do Mr. Huo suspect?"
Huo Gao said: "Prince, don't you think it's strange? The emperor personally went on an expedition, but he did not leave the country's affairs to you. Instead, he appointed three ministers, Sima Tai, Pu Longqi and Adams, to jointly take charge. Before the expedition, he drew up a plan.
In order to share the mysterious secret decree, I personally summoned King Baoshu Xunni on the day when I drafted the secret decree..."
Xuan Yuan interrupted him impatiently: "They are all important officials of the imperial court, so why is it strange that my father summoned them?"
Huo Gao laughed evilly and said: "Baoshu Wang Xunni is the princess's biological uncle, Pu Longqi is a staunch opponent of the prince, Sima Tai and Adams each have their own plans, and they don't seem to be in the same camp as the prince. Isn't the prince still in crisis?"
feel?"
Xuan Yuan trembled violently in her heart. Huo Gao's words were like a needle piercing the depths of his heart. His father must have arranged everything before the personal expedition. If it is really like what Huo Gao said,
He was very likely to change his original intention of passing the throne to himself. He suddenly remembered what the eldest princess Xuan Siling said that day. The throne of Xuanwu Kingdom does not necessarily belong to a man. It is not impossible for his father to dethrone himself and install Princess Xuanbo.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. The top priority was to find out whose hands the secret was and what was written on it.
Huo Gao saw that Xuan Yuan's heart had already been shaken, and whispered: "There is another thing that is very coincidental. After Your Majesty personally went to war, the princess fell ill. This illness really happened by chance."
Xuan Yuan's eyes flickered: "You mean..."
"The princess is not a scheming person. It is difficult to say whether this illness is real or fake. I am worried that she will use this method to make the prince relax his vigilance towards her?"
Xuan Yuan nodded: "According to Manager Huo, what should I do?"
Huo Gao's fat face was filled with a layer of murderous intent: "Make a decisive decision! Strive for all the forces that can be united and seize the opportunity to remove all obstacles!"
