After practicing a move, Hu Xiaotian stopped and picked up the towel hanging on the branch to wipe his face. Only then did he realize that Huo Shengnan had already arrived and had been observing him practicing his sword for a while. Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "When did General Huo come here?"
?”
Huo Shengnan said: "What kind of sword technique is this of yours? It feels completely different from the previous sword techniques. It seems to be very powerful."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's still the same sword technique. Is General Huo interested in practicing with me?"
Huo Shengnan actually nodded. She took out the long sword from her waist and said softly: "Let me learn Master Hu's sword skills."
Hu Xiaotian hugged her fists, and the two of them each took three steps back. Hu Xiaotian suddenly started to move. As he took a step, his inner breath rose from his dantian. He raised the Zangfeng with both hands. His inner breath coordinated perfectly with his movements.
In an instant, the inner breath was concentrated in both arms, and the sword flashed a cold light in the night, and there was a sound of wind and thunder as it danced.
Huo Shengnan frowned slightly, she had already judged the powerful power of Hu Xiaotian's sword. With a shake of her arm, with a "chi!" sound, the long sword wiped away Hu Xiaotian's big sword. Huo Shengnan had experienced hundreds of battles, and of course he would not choose to fight with Hu Xiaotian.
Fight, the big sword in Hu Xiaotian's hand is far heavier than her ∈∟,ww■w. long sword, and Hu Xiaotian uses the sword with both hands to seize the opportunity. In terms of physical strength alone, Hu Xiaotian should be no less than her, so Huo Shengnan has to use cleverness to win.
, her way to deal with it was to swing the long sword in four or two strokes to draw a graceful arc, and the sword edge was slightly tilted. It was such a subtle change. The blade of the sword met Hu Xiaotian's epee flatly, and the moment the two swords touched each other,
Huo Shengnan lowered his wrist to avoid the sharp edge, remove the opponent's power, and then use speed to defeat the opponent.
Huo Shengnan was confident. She already had a strategy to deal with Hu Xiaotian, but when she wanted to remove the power from Hu Xiaotian's sword, she felt the sword sinking, and a powerful force surged towards her like a big wave.
Although the long sword did not collide head-on with Hu Xiaotian, it stuck together and fell into a whirlpool. The whirlpool was formed by the power of the epee blade. Hu Xiaotian's internal power was transmitted to her sword body through the epee. Although Huo Shengnan removed
The initial strength was lost, but then a more powerful and domineering force was transmitted to her sword body. Huo Shengnan could no longer draw out the sword and launch a counterattack.
Her eyes widened in a strange way. She had to take a step back to distance herself from Hu Xiaotian, retreating in order to advance, and get rid of the shackles of the heavy sword.
Hu Xiaotian seemed to have guessed what she meant. He pressed forward with the big sword. The strength of the sword changed due to the change of the breath in the body. Huo Shengnan took three steps back before taking the long sword out of his hand. She was really shocked.
, she had seen Hu Xiaotian's martial arts before. She thought that Hu Xiaotian and she were definitely not the same level of opponents, but she didn't expect that Hu Xiaotian's sword actually forced her to take three steps back. She just barely got out of his attack range.
There didn't seem to be anything special about it, but the changes in the inner energy were complicated. In a short period of time, she felt several completely different powers in Hu Xiaotian's move, and it was like a raging ocean tide, advancing layer by layer.
Huo Shengnan dared to conclude that Hu Xiaotian's move was completely different from the swordsmanship he practiced that morning.
Hu Xiaotian found out that he could force Huo Shengnan back, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart. He smiled and said, "Is this move of mine acceptable?"
Huo Shengnan nodded and said: "It's not bad. If we fight Qiu Mubai at this level, even if we can't win, the defeat won't be too ugly."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's a pity that I only mastered this trick."
Huo Shengnan blinked his beautiful eyes and didn't understand what Hu Xiaotian meant.
Hu Xiaotian said: "If this move cannot defeat him, then I will have no choice but to abandon my sword and admit defeat."
Huo Shengnan said: "Master Hu..." She seemed to have something to say, but when the words came to her lips, she gave up her mind and said softly: "You should rest early. No matter how hard you practice now, it may be too late."
Huo Shengnan did not stay at Qichen Palace to rest that night. After she left alone, she came to the Marshal's Mansion in the west city of Yongdu. This is the residence of Yu Chichong, the Grand Marshal of Yong's Army. It was quiet at night, but the martial arts hall was still brightly lit.
A tall old man with gray hair was wiping a two-foot-long spear under the lamp. He was Yu Chichong, the Grand Marshal of the Great Yong Army. For some reason, he suddenly stopped and looked at the dancing candlelight with a confused expression.
.
After a while, Yuchi Chong just shook his head, sighed, looked in the direction of the door and said, "Is it Sheng Nan?"
Huo Shengnan walked into the martial arts hall with a smile and said softly: "My foster father's ears are still so sensitive. I tried to tread lightly, but I still can't hide it from your ears."
Yuchichong smiled and said, "You girl, why did you come to my place if you don't have to be on guard at Chen Palace?"
Huo Shengnan came behind Yuchichong, stretched out his hands to knead his shoulders and said, "My foster father, why did you sigh just now?"
Yuchi Chong said: "I just got the news that a major change has occurred in Kangdu. Emperor Long Yelin of Dakang has gone insane and is now unable to handle the affairs of the state. Currently, the eldest prince Long Tingsheng is temporarily in charge of the affairs of the state, and Empress Jian listens behind the curtain."
Huo Shengnan said in surprise: "Long Yelin just became emperor, why did something happen so quickly?"
Yuchi Chong sighed and said: "When a country is about to perish, there must be evildoers. All of this is caused by the eunuch Ji Feihua. If this continues, Dakang will not be long from the day when the country will be destroyed." His words were quite melancholy.
Although he was already the Grand Marshal of Dayong, he was still born in Dakang after all. How could he not have any feelings for his motherland?
Huo Shengnan said: "The emperor may be preparing to move south."
A bitter smile appeared on Yuchichong's lips: "The purpose of forming an alliance with Heihu is to stabilize the rear defense. Without worries, we can concentrate our efforts on attacking Dakang."
Huo Shengnan said: "Will the Emperor let you take command of the Southern Expedition?"
Yuchichong shook his head and said: "The emperor is a wise king. He sees everything thoroughly and will never let me go to Dakan. He should also know that even if he lets me go, I won't
go."
Huo Shengnan said softly: "Father, the Black Hu people are not reliable. If the emperor launches a large-scale invasion southward, will the Black Hu people take advantage of the situation?"
Yuchichong said: "If I guess correctly, the emperor will let me personally lead the army to garrison in northern Xinjiang. This time the emperor has made up his mind, and the great well-being is in danger."
Huo Shengnan said: "In a few days, it will be the wedding day of Princess Anping and the Seventh Prince."
Yu Chichong said: "A marriage cannot change Da Kang's destiny."
Huo Shengnan said: "My foster father, Qiu Mubai of Sword Palace, challenged Hu Xiaotian. They will have a duel at Happy Forest tomorrow."
Yu Chichong's expression looked a little stunned. He frowned and said, "What's the problem between them? Qiu Mubai has always been arrogant, but the person he challenged was after all, Qiu Xiangguang, the history of Dakang's marriage.
Why do you sit back and ignore this matter?"
Huo Shengnan said: "I heard a piece of news that he acquiesced in this matter."
Yuchi Chong was keenly aware that there must be another mystery behind this incident, and whispered: "Who is behind this?"
Huo Shengnan said: "If Hu Xiaotian is defeated and killed in the duel, who will be the final beneficiary?"
Yuchi Chong sighed and said: "Concubine Shu has always been extremely dissatisfied with the marriage. She had planned to make things difficult for the Dakang envoy before, and now that the wedding is approaching. Maybe she is still unwilling to give in. In fact, I know even if you don't tell me, the Sword Palace is closer.
The development of the year is inseparable from the support of the Dong family."
Huo Shengnan whispered: "I have received news that Qiu Mubai is not only determined to win this duel, but also determined to kill."
Yuchi Chong's eyes flickered.
Huo Shengnan said: "Hu Xiaotian is not an ordinary eunuch. His father is Hu Buwei, the former Minister of Household Affairs of Dakang. When he was in Dakang Palace, he was deeply favored by Ji Feihua, and Ji Feihua is currently in Dakang Palace.
It is no exaggeration to describe his status as covering the sky with one hand."
Yuchichong encouraged her to continue talking with his eyes.
Huo Shengnan said: "Although it is impossible for Dakang to go to war with Dayong because of the life of a eunuch, Hu Xiaotian is still the manager of Zilan Palace in Dakang Palace. He is the one whom Princess Anping trusts the most, and the relationship between them is very deep. If he
If she dies, Princess Anping will never sit idly by and ignore her."
Yuchi said: "If she becomes resentful because of this, wouldn't the seventh prince be in a dangerous situation?"
Huo Shengnan said: "We can think of it, and others can also think of it. Maybe dealing with Hu Xiaotian is just the beginning."
Yuchi Chong sighed: "So what if you see through it? Shengnan, listen to dad. You do your duty well. When you finish the things at hand, you will go with me to garrison in northern Xinjiang. No matter what happens in the palace,
All changes have nothing to do with us." There was deep loneliness in his words.
Huo Shengnan pursed his lips, but the words hidden in his heart were still not spoken clearly. The reason why she came to her adoptive father late at night was because she wanted him to use his influence to resolve the duel. Deep in her heart, and
She didn't want Hu Xiaotian to die like this. Although Hu Xiaotian showed strength that shocked her in tonight's move, it was not enough to guarantee that he could defeat Qiu Mubai.
The adoptive father could not fail to see what he meant. The helplessness he showed was a reflection of his depressed mood at this time. Tomorrow's duel has long gone beyond the scope of the duel itself. There are many forces behind the duel planning.
, and those forces cannot even offend my adoptive father.
The Seventh Prince Xue Daoming slowly walked up to the Star-Zhaing Tower. This tallest building in the inner city of Yongdu has seven floors, all of which are wooden structures. The main structure is made of fine golden nanmu mortises and tenons. It still stands as strong as ever after hundreds of years.
A burly man had already been waiting at the Star-Zhaing Tower. He stood there with his back turned, his eyes silently looking at the bright stars in the night sky, as if he could reach out and touch them. Looking down, he saw the Yongdu City at night with thousands of lights.
The beauty is overwhelming, just like the Milky Way in the sky. Such a beautiful and rich place does not belong to him. Every time he thinks of this, Wanyan Chixiong's heart feels like being bitten by thousands of insects. His hands clenched tightly involuntarily, and then he heard the footsteps behind him. (
