Murong Jiaojiao had a look of contempt on her face and said: "But as far as I know, the original author can write poems out of mouth at any time. Since he has such a great talent, how can he plagiarize your poems?"
Dong Guosheng was unusually thick-skinned. After hearing this, he sneered and said: "Perhaps the poems you recited were plagiarized from me. So it is effortless to recite them. If everyone present recites a few poems,
Isn't it possible to say good poems at any time?"
Seeing Dong Guo win the argument with everyone, the sixty-year-old prince was very proud and said with a smile: "Why, Murong Jiaojiao, don't you believe that Mr. Dong Guo can write good poems?"
When encountering such a shameless person, no matter how smart Murong Jiaojiao is, there is nothing she can do. Such a person, no matter what others say, has only one powerful weapon, which is a three-inch thick skin, invulnerable to all weapons and weapons.
Li Xing suddenly put down his wine glass, stood up, and saluted Princess Yurui: "Princess, please forgive me for being rude."
Princess Yurui's smart eyes blinked, as if she guessed what Li Xing was going to do, and said with a smile: "You go."
Li Xing thanked him and strode up to Dong Guosheng. In his mind, he released the thoughts of the chaotic demon. This Dong Guosheng was only at the second level of blood training. How could he resist? He was suddenly confused and confused, and he didn't know where he was.
.
Li Xingxiao asked: "Dong Guosheng, who wrote this poem?"
Dong Guosheng had lost his mind and just said whatever he wanted. He said blankly: "I don't know."
"So, you didn't write the lyrics, so why are you pretending to be the author?" Li Xing asked again.
"Of course it's to be famous." When he said this, his face flashed with excitement, "As long as I insist that I am the author of this poem, I will be favored by the nobles, and my future will be bright!"
With just these two questions, Dong Guosheng's secret was completely revealed. Li Xing said no more and turned back to his seat.
As soon as he left, Dong Guosheng slowly regained consciousness. He felt that he had been absent-minded for a moment. As for what happened, he didn't know. But he clearly felt that there were disdainful looks coming from all directions.
Dong Guosheng is indeed Dong Guosheng, still full of pride: "What? Don't you still believe it?"
The Sixty Prince's face turned the color of pig liver with anger. He originally wanted to use this person to earn face, but unexpectedly he lost his face to his grandma's house.
"Come here! Drag him out!" Prince Sixty was furious. With a wave of his hand, the guards took Dong Guo Sheng away.
Dongguo Sheng was still puzzled and asked: "Prince, why did you let me out?" He sat still. The guard sneered, grabbed Dongguo Sheng with his big hand, like a chicken, and strode out.
It was only then that Dong Guosheng realized something was wrong, and a look of fear appeared on his face. He wanted to call out something, but was waved by the guard on the back, and he fainted immediately. As for the fate of Mr. Dong Guo, others will not know
And know it.
This farce made the Sixtyth Prince look extremely ugly. He gave Li Xing a hard look and said, "I heard that Taifu Zhu recommended a group of guards. He is one of them, right? He really has some skills!"
He meant that Li Xing used tricks to make Dong Shisheng tell the truth.
Zhu Qingying only felt light on his face. He smiled and said leisurely: "Your Highness the Prince, thank you."
The sixty-year-old prince sneered: "There are countless number of bodyguards recommended by princes, princes and ministers. How can the palace use so many? After discussion, we princes have decided to conduct bodyguard selection in three days. I hope your people will not be eliminated."
After saying that, the prince stood up and left, ignoring the others present.
Zhu Qingying was not worried at all, she had great confidence in Li Xing. As the Sixtyth Prince said, after the death of Emperor Xiang Zhishan, many ministers and princes in the palace recommended the guards to the palace.
They are nominally concerned about the safety of the palace, but in fact they are trying to install some of their own forces in the palace to fight for their own interests.
The current imperial palace is jointly run by several relatively powerful princes. On the surface, they cooperate, but secretly they also fight fiercely. The Ouchi guards are the enforcers of force in the palace. They have a very important relationship. When necessary, blood will be spilled. Facts
As long as the Grand Imperial Master does not interfere, it will be fine no matter how much trouble the princes make.
Zhu Jin knew this very well, so he made great efforts to recruit talents and recommended them as bodyguards, in order to prepare for the final decisive battle between the princes in the future.
After the Sixty Prince left, Princess Huarui was not angry, she just smiled and continued to enjoy the banquet with everyone.
During the banquet, Murong Jiaojiao kept looking at Li Xing thoughtfully. Li Xing, on the other hand, did not look at her and focused on drinking with Qian to ward off evil spirits.
The banquet ended in the evening, and Li Xing and Zhu Qingying left together. In the end, only Murong Jiaojiao and Princess Yurui were left in the hall.
After chatting for a while, Murong Jiaojiao hesitated several times and finally said: "Princess, your Xuanshui True Pupil can observe everything in the world. Can you tell the depth of that guard?"
Princess Yurui smiled and said: "The guard named Zhao Yun has changed his appearance. This is not his true appearance."
Murong Jiaojiao was overjoyed: "Yes! It must be him!"
Princess Yurui smiled and asked: "Who is it?"
Murong Jiaojiao smiled and said nothing, and asked: "Xiao Rui, you are a senior disciple of the Taixu Sect. You are very high-minded and would not know about him." Obviously, she did not want to reveal Li Xing's identity.
Princess Yurui shrugged her shoulders: "Forget it if you don't say it." She tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "There is something very mysterious about this person. My true eyes cannot completely see through him."
"What?" Murong Jiaojiao was shocked, "Can't your Xuan Shui true pupils be able to see through even gods? How come you can't see through him?"
Princess Yurui was very calm and said calmly: "The world is so big and there are countless strange people and strange people. It's not surprising that I can't see through it. Although I haven't completely seen through it, I can feel the murderous aura from this person, and there is also a strong
The devilish aura. In short, he has many secrets."
After hearing this, Murong Jiaojiao was not surprised but overjoyed, thinking to herself: "Li Xing, Li Xing, have you finally appeared? When I recruited you, you refused. Now, what is your purpose in entering the palace?"
"
Returning to the compound, Murong Jiaojiao smiled and said: "You performed very well today and I am very satisfied. But you also heard that in three days, the selection of the bodyguards will be held. I hope you can become the commander of the bodyguards."
"If you can do it, you will be my father's confidant and your future will be bright." Zhu Qingying said, "Moreover, my father will help you with your cultivation."
"Yes, I will do my best," Li Xing agreed.
After Zhu Qingying left, Li Xing returned to the room and sat in the living room drinking tea to relax while he was waiting for someone.
The person Li Xing was waiting for was Murong Jiaojiao. He knew that with Murong Jiaojiao's intelligence, he might have thought of his identity. In the main hall, he composed a poem with Murong Jiaojiao as the protagonist, just to attract her attention.
Li Xing had a good impression of Murong Jiaojiao. In the beginning, this woman had helped him more than once. Although the two sides were now on opposite sides, Li Xing did not take it seriously.
In his eyes, there is no difference between the Black Demon Sect and the five major sects, and there is no distinction between good and evil. Of course, if the Black Demon Sect infringes upon the interests of the Qiyun Sect in the future, he will not sit idly by and ignore it.
Li Xing was waiting in the hall, and the guards came to say hello. In fact, these guards were not considered real imperial guards and had not yet been recognized by the princes. If they can stand out in the selection in three days, they can truly win the prize.
this identity.
Sure enough, in the dead of night, there was a slight sound outside. Li Xing smiled slightly: "Since you are here, please show up and see me."
Murong Jiaojiao walked out of the shadows and appeared in the hall, only a few steps away from Li Xing.
"Is that you?" she asked.
Li Xing said calmly: "What's the difference between yes and no? I am Zhao Yun now, and I am going to be a bodyguard." His words were to tell Murong Jiaojiao that this trip had a purpose, so she should not destroy it.
Murong Jiaojiao was such a smart person. She immediately understood and nodded. After a moment, she sighed: "The changes in the world are so unpredictable. I remember that at the beginning, you were just a little person. But now, you are already great."
"Thank you. You are also very surprising. Your cultivation has advanced so quickly. I think you will be a god in the future." Li Xing said.
"No one is absolutely sure about the step of being a god." She paused, "Why don't you invite me to sit down?"
Li Xing smiled and said: "There are experts in the palace, so it's inconvenient to talk. Let's talk outside." At that moment, he used the phaseless step and turned into an afterimage, floating out of the wooden building silently.
Murong Jiaojiao followed, and the two of them went far away in an instant. After walking in a hurry for nearly half an hour, they arrived at a hill outside the imperial capital. The place was very desolate and there was no trace of anyone.
.
Li Xing found a big stone and sat down cross-legged. Since Murong Jiaojiao knew his identity, she had no scruples and sat aside.
"You must have experienced a lot in these years, right?" Murong Jiaojiao said, "Otherwise, it would be impossible to master that mountain-like momentum."
Li Xing regarded this woman as a friend, so he picked up some unimportant things and told her about them. In the past few years, he had experienced a lot, and he had been in danger more than once. Murong Jiaojiao listened, sometimes raising her eyebrows and smiling, sometimes frowning
concern.
"I'm not wrong, your future achievements will definitely be higher than mine." Murong Jiaojiao said with a smile. Li Xing didn't say anything about the Nine Yang Pearl, so she thought that Li Xing had such an idea because of his extraordinary qualifications.
Li Xing also asked about Murong Jiaojiao's past over the years.
When the Black Demon Sect rose up, Murong Tianxing decided to defect to the Black Demon Sect after much consideration. Facts have proved that his choice was not a mistake. Today, the Black Demon Sect controls half of Pingguo.
During this period, Murong Jiaojiao made suggestions for her father, which not only preserved his position as Yuhou, but also greatly enhanced the power of the Murong family.
"Well, in today's troubled times, it would be great if the Murong family can protect themselves. Although the Black Demon Sect is strong now, once the Tianchen Kingdom's rebellion subsides, it may be wiped out in one fell swoop. By then, the Murong family will also be affected."
Li Xing asked: "In that case, why did you join the Black Demon Cult in the first place?"
Murong Jiaojiao smiled bitterly: "You don't know something. The Murong family's sphere of influence is closest to the imperial capital. If they don't take refuge in the Black Demon Cult, the Murong family will be the first force to be destroyed."
