Chapter 1357 Fighting openly and secretly, fishing in troubled waters
Inside Xuantian City.
As the wedding envoys from the Qin, Han, and Huanyun kingdoms entered the city one after another, the atmosphere in the city was once again pushed to its peak.
Four first-class empires appeared at the same time, all to marry Princess Xuantian Shen Moqing. Such a grand event was rare in a hundred years. The people in the city were talking about it, and the noisy news spread throughout the streets and alleys.
There are many people talking about it, and there are countless versions.
at this time.
Emperor Chu and his party had already settled in Longyin Tower. They heard the rumble of horse hooves coming from the long street. In the restaurant, Emperor Chu opened the window and looked down.
"Young Master, Shan Xiongxin and Cao Zhengchun are back."
Na Ya'a's voice sounded outside the room. Emperor Chu looked back and said, "Come in!"
Shan Xiongxin and Cao Zhengchun pushed the door open and entered, fisting and saluting one after another, saying: "Young master, we have found out that the Longtang envoy has settled in the post house. There are a thousand people coming to welcome the relatives this time, led by Changsun Wuji and
Pei Ju and two will lead the team."
"But I discovered that the post house is full of ordinary soldiers. The truly powerful men they brought should be hidden somewhere in the city."
"My servant also discovered that Pei Ju's identity is strange. It's not as simple as it seems. At present, envoys from the three kingdoms of Qin, Han, and Huanyun have entered the city one after another. Xuantian City has been completely covered by endless crises. I wonder what the master's plan is?"
"Intend?"
"Without any plan, we entered Xuantian City in batches. So far, no one knows about our existence. Let's watch the tiger fight from a distance and see how many trump cards the Four Kingdoms have hidden in Xuantian City."
Emperor Chu's calm voice sounded, and he raised his hand to close the window tightly. Just a moment later, he had discovered that there were no less than a hundred masters from various countries hidden in the city, and there were countless forces in the world. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have been selected into the precarious Xuantian City.
The people are still so densely packed.
The wedding envoys from the four countries all led thousands of people into the city. Because of Shen Moqing's generosity, Emperor Chu was helpless. He only brought twenty-four people, which was a big gap.
"Xiongxin, pass on the order. No one is allowed to leave Longyin Tower without orders for the past two days."
"Zhengchun, in the past few days, the effects of the Bodhi Pill in your body have been fully integrated. Find a quiet place to break through your cultivation. In two days, there will probably be a bloody storm in Xuantian City."
After Emperor Chu led everyone from Dayong City, along the way, Pei Yuanqing, Na Ya'a, Cao Zhengchun, and Shan Xiongxin all received rewards. Now their cultivation has improved, and they have undergone a thousand changes.
Especially Cao Zhengchun, whose cultivation has already reached the peak of the fourth-grade Martial Saint Realm. Now that the Bodhi Pill is attacking again, Emperor Chu speculates that he has broken through again and can reach at least the upper-grade of the fifth-grade Martial Saint Realm.
Cao Zhengchun is loyal to himself. No matter how strong his cultivation is, there is no need to worry. On the contrary, it is a huge help. At least from the current point of view, Xuantian City may not be able to rest in peace in the next few days.
It is destined to be a bloody storm with constant killings.
The words fell.
Cao Zhengchun and Shan Xiongxin saluted and left the room. Emperor Chu smiled lightly and said: "The great Qin warriors, the young master Fusu, the Han zombie army, the young master Che, the magic cloud dragon scale black armor, and the young master Hao."
"Li Shimin, you have three more opponents!"
Da Qin, Da Han, and Huanyun's move was obviously a slap in the face of Long Tang. The relationship between the four countries may not be able to return to the alliance period. This is undoubtedly a good thing for the Emperor of Chu. There is no need to worry about the alliance of the four countries against Chu.
create a threat.
The four kingdoms were all fully prepared and determined to win. Emperor Chu could only watch from the other side to see what big show they could perform. He also took this opportunity to see how strong the four kingdoms were.
Xuantian was in chaos, and he was alone. Emperor Chu gave up the idea of going to the princess mansion to visit Shen Moqing, and decided not to expose him until the last moment.
"Just because I don't choose to appear does not mean that you will have a chance. I wonder if Mo Qing will be moved when he sees my gorgeous appearance?"
...........
At dusk, the sun sets in the west.
Emperor Chu was bored. He opened the window and looked out the window at the long street. The glow was overwhelming and shrouded. The pedestrians on the long street seemed to be bathed in the holy light, with shadows coming and going like weaving. The noisy shouts came one after another, and there was no sense of the storm at all.
The coming breath.
Everything was so natural, as if the welcoming missions from the four countries had nothing to do with the people in the city. They were still immersed in their daily busyness.
Emperor Chu held his hands on the window and let the evening breeze blow on his face. The black hair on his temples flew up, giving people a sense of unpredictability.
at this time.
The most lively thing is Xuantian Palace. The envoys from Daqin, Dahan and Huanyun entered the palace. How could Changsun Wuji and Pei Ju stay in the post house safely?
Inside the Royal Study Room of the Imperial Palace.
Young Master Fusu, Young Master Che, and Young Master Hao each led one person to sit in the hall. On the side, Changsun Wuji's face was gloomy, and the voice of questioning rang out, showing no fear of the Young Master of the Three Kingdoms.
"Emperor Xuan, the marriage between our emperor and the princess was confirmed three months ago. I hope Emperor Xuan can explain it to the Young Masters of the Three Kingdoms so that this matter will not affect the relations between the countries."
"Everyone in the world knows that two days later, the Longtang Wedding Envoy will pick up the princess and go to Longdu. The princess is already my emperor's beloved concubine in name. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for the three young masters to come to get married at this time."
"What's wrong?"
"Didn't Lord Changsun also say that he will marry the princess in two days? Now I'm waiting for the time to come. Who can win the princess's heart depends on his ability."
Young Master Hao spoke up, dressed in white, with outstanding grace and a very proud expression. He was obviously determined to marry the princess, and he was more disdainful of his eldest grandson Wuji.
"Huangfu Hao's words are right. The princess is the apple of Emperor Xuan's eye. She is rich in gold, and is the heir of Tianqi. She is listed as one of the top ten beauties in the War Continent by the world."
"My fair lady, a gentleman is always jealous. The marriage between the Longtang Empire and the princess was only a verbal agreement. Besides, Emperor Xingxuan has never agreed directly."
"Is it possible that the Longtang Empire is trying to bully others and forcefully marry the princess?"
Young Master Che spoke sharply and echoed his words. He did not give Changsun Wuji any face, nor did he take the Longtang Empire in his eyes. Only Young Master Fusu did not speak, gently waving the folding fan in his hand, gentle and elegant, but giving people an unpredictable and profound feeling, like the night sky.
The stars are invisible to people.
Changsun Wuji was speechless by the two people's rebuke. He knew very well that the three people in front of him were not good people. They had noble status and were all young and arrogant.
Together with Li Shimin, he was called the Fourth Young Master of the First Grade. His martial arts skills were terrifying.
Unable to do anything to the four of them, Changsun Wuji surrendered his gaze to Shen Haolin. His murderous intent was clearly exposed, and he glared at them, waiting for Emperor Xuan's answer.
"The four great empires are all powerful countries in the War Continent. If you have the opportunity to marry into any of the four great empires, it will be a blessing to the Xuantian Empire."
"Although Emperor Longtang said verbally about marrying Qing'er three months ago, he has never come. Now that Young Master Fusu, Young Master Che and Young Master Hao are here, if I don't give them equal opportunities, I'm afraid it won't be long before they get married. , the Xuantian Empire will no longer exist.”
"So, the envoy of Longtang should be more understanding. I am thinking about the Longtang Empire again!"
Shen Haolin was worthy of being a second-grade imperial king. He leveraged his strength with one move and used it perfectly, leaving Changsun Wuji without any temper.
really.
If Shen Haolin directly announced that Shen Moqing would be married to Li Shimin, he would not only refute the reputation of the three young masters of Qin, Han, and Huanyun, but he might also push the Longtang Empire into a place of eternal disaster and become the target of public criticism.
In just two sentences, Changsun Wuji shouted that he could not blame Shen Haolin and was grateful for his rejection. He looked at Emperor Xuan's calm expression and sat at the top of the table confidently.
Changsun Wuji was furious, but he quickly calmed down the boiling fire in his heart. Murderous intent flashed in his slender eyes. He felt that there was no need to talk to them here. Anyway, after leaving the Xuantian Palace, after tonight, the Young Masters of the Three Kingdoms will have no chance. Still alive.
“If you don’t take the road to heaven, you will have to throw yourself into hell without any door!”
"Emperor Xuan, since the princes of the three countries came to propose marriage at the same time, including my emperor, there are four of them in total, which country do you plan to marry your highness the princess to?"
Faced with Changsun Wuji's question, Shen Haolin chuckled, pretending to be embarrassed, and said: "Both the Young Masters of the Three Kingdoms and Emperor Longtang are dragons among men. It's a pity that I only have one daughter. Otherwise, I could be with all four kingdoms." Make good friends with Qin and Jin."
"Now that the matter is over, for the sake of fairness, I will hold a banquet at the giant palace in the palace in two days. I hope that the Young Masters of the Three Kingdoms and Emperor Longtang will arrive at that time. As for who can win Qing'er's favor, everything depends on fate. .”
"good!"
"Emperor Xuan's move is very good, fair and just. I am very happy. It all depends on your own ability. Let's see who can repay the beauty in the end."
Huangfu Hao spoke, his figure rose up, and after saluting Shen Haolin with his fist, he gripped the broad sword at his waist and walked out of the imperial study room. For Huangfu Hao, Shen Moqing was the one in his pocket.
Huangfu Hao has always boasted that no woman can resist his charm. It has to be said that this guy does have a good skin, he is handsome and charming, and he must be the dream lover of many women. But even so, the young master Che and his son Fusu are still not under him.
If we have to compare him with Emperor Chu, Emperor Chu, who possesses the aura of a true dragon and possesses the divine bones of six dragons, is more charming and elegant. He seems to be graceful, but in fact he dominates the world. Of course, this kind of demeanor of the Son of Heaven is not that of the three emperors. Young master can compare with him.
"See you two later!"
Young Master Che didn't say a word. He stood up to greet him, waved his sleeves and walked out of the imperial study. Only Young Master Fusu was left. He took back the folding fan in his hand and nodded gently at Shen Haolin and Changsun Wuji, looking calm and relaxed. The appearance of pure dust.
"Go ahead and see you tomorrow!"
The three young masters left the Imperial Study Room one after another. Changsun Wuji glared at Shen Haolin, wishing to step forward and kill him with a palm, but his reason told him that now was not the best time.
"Emperor Xuan, see you in two days. I hope you won't regret today's decision then!"
Changsun Wuji scolded angrily, fluttering his sleeves, throwing them away angrily, and left angrily with Pei Ju. Seeing everyone leaving, Shen Haolin, who was sitting at the top, saw the embarrassed look on his face disappear, and his whole aura instantly changed. Extremely fierce.
"When four tigers fight, there will be casualties. Whether you can survive in Xuantian City in two days depends on your respective fortunes."
Shen Haolin did not expect that the three young masters would come. Now the development of the whole matter has gone off track. Even the Longtang Empire can no longer think of being alone. With the containment of the Qin, Han, and Huanyun Three Kingdoms, for Shen Haolin, maybe now It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Gao Li, pass on my edict, ordering all the patrol battalions and city defense battalions in the city to rest for the next two days. In addition, the commander of the Jueying Guards and the head of the Taixu Sect should enter the palace immediately. I have important things for them to handle."
After giving the order, the chamberlain Gao Li did not hesitate at all and left quickly. Shen Haolin had his own plan and wanted to use this opportunity to not only resolve the current crisis in the Xuantian Empire, but also to completely disrupt the four empires.
A sudden incident changed everyone's thinking, and the conspiracy gradually came to light. In the next two days, Xuantian City was afraid that it would fall into complete chaos.
Shen Haolin moved outside the imperial study room and looked at the sunset that was about to set in the sky. It was like a soaring dragon, ready to completely hide in the clouds.
"You guys fight slowly. In two days, I will be waiting for you at the giant tower to see who is still alive."
The voice was not loud, but it was still full of murderous intent, unable to cover up Shen Haolin's endless murderous intent and the secret joy in his heart.
.............
At night.
Inside the princess's mansion.
Shen Moqing was sitting alone by the window. The night breeze was slightly cool and gently caressing her face. Three thousand green hairs were flying in the wind. The air was filled with an elegant and light fragrance. Being immersed in it made people feel relaxed and happy.
The stars are bright and the moonlight is shining. Shen Moqing has lost a lot of weight. Since returning from the palace, he has been sitting by the window in a daze. The maid behind him sees it and is anxious in her heart.
"Your Highness, the Seventh Elder is here!"
"Seventh Elder, is there any latest news?"
Shen Moqing's low and soft voice sounded. Every day, the Seven Elders would come to inform them of the latest news. Tonight's arrival was later than usual. Therefore, Shen Moqing knew that something important must have happened. She couldn't help but wonder if it was Emperor Chu's arrival. Tiancheng.
"Your Highness, at dusk, the princes of the three kingdoms of Qin, Han, and Huanyun support Su, the prince retreats, and the prince Hao leads the marriage envoy to Xuantian City."
"Your Majesty, summoned the princes of the Three Kingdoms and the envoys of the Longtang Empire in the royal study, and finally decided to hold a banquet at the giant palace platform in two days and let the princess choose one of the four."
Dongfang Qiye spoke, and Shen Moqing fell into deep thought, his eyes flashing continuously. When he was young, he suddenly spoke and murmured to himself:
"The four major first-class powerful countries have come to Xuantian City to propose marriage. It seems that this matter is not that simple. Maybe this is my chance!"
"Seven elders, does the emperor have any other edicts to issue?"
"Your Highness, the Emperor ordered the patrol camp in the city to be secretly withdrawn to rest for two days. There is no need to regulate the security of the imperial city. In addition, the emperor ordered the sect master and the commander of Jueying Guard to be summoned to the palace!"
"It seems that my father is preparing to fish in troubled waters and completely muddy the waters of Xuantian City. Xuantian City has become a battlefield for the four empires to fight openly and secretly!"
"It's really sad. When did the Xuantian Empire become the trophy of their fighting?"
Shen Moqing smiled sadly, her pretty face was full of gloom, and she looked like she was lost. The Xuantian Empire had become someone else's trophy, but she was reduced to someone else's choice.
"Seventh Elder, there is no news about him yet?"
The question sounded, and before Dongfang Qiye had time to answer, Shen Moqing already knew the answer, and waved his jade arm to signal Dongfang Qiye to leave. (To be continued)
