Chapter 124: The joy of keeping a business is beyond your imagination
…
Yao Chengchao on the side also suddenly felt an invisible murderous aura permeating the air, and couldn't help but swallowed nervously.
What happened? Why did the atmosphere suddenly become so tense?
"This sister is so beautiful." Seeing the tense atmosphere, Wang Lixian couldn't help but stepped forward and said with bright eyes, "Hmm~ She smells good too. I wonder if you are married? If you need it, you can.
Consider my father Wang Shouzhe."
"?"
Princess Luojia was quite fond of the pretty and pink Lixian at first, so she did not resist her approach, but what she said next made her face suddenly turn red: "Little girl, please don't talk nonsense, I'm sorry
Your father doesn't care...wait a minute, your father is Wang Shouzhe? Isn't that the elder brother of Young Master Shou Ye?"
Her mood suddenly brightened, and she figured out all the joints in an instant.
She hurriedly tidied her clothes, and bowed politely to the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor with a slight nervousness: "It turns out that my sister-in-law has arrived, and Lingxiao was a little off to greet me. Please forgive me for my apology."
Sister-in-law?
This title reveals a lot of information~
The Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor was also keenly aware of the strangeness. His red lips were slightly raised and he showed a playful smile: "I'm afraid you have mistaken the wrong person. I am not your sister-in-law."
Princess Luojia was stunned, and her pretty face suddenly became embarrassed: "It's Lingxiao Menglang. Lingxiao and Mr. Shouye are mutual confidants. This and that are just friends..."
"What I mean is that I am not Wang Shouzhe's wife." The Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor chuckled, "You don't need to explain to me what your relationship is with your family's son-in-law."
"..."
Suddenly, Princess Luojia was so ashamed that she really wanted to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
If you really care, you will be confused, and misunderstandings may occur accidentally.
She had no choice but to find the topic in embarrassment: "Who is this sister, Mr. Shouzhe?"
"Don't misunderstand me. I am very indifferent to Wang Shouzhe, that scheming old fox. I am afraid that if he sells me one day, I will have to pay him some money." The Nine-tailed Demon Emperor was obviously wary when he mentioned Wang Shouzhe, "He and I
It’s purely an employment relationship.”
"Nonsense, you are brother Shouzhe's mother-in-law." Chiwei, the fire fox in her arms, became unhappy and flicked her tail, "Also, don't slander my brother Shouzhe at every turn. Aren't you the only one?
Hasn't the charm spell worked on Brother Shouzhe every time? This further shows that Brother Shouzhe is determined and only likes me and Sister Ruolan wholeheartedly."
"I can even resist my mother's charm. Isn't this kind of person scary?" The beautiful peach blossom eyes of the nine demon emperors widened slightly, looking down at their daughter, "How dare you provoke me?"
"That's because you are older, so naturally you are not attractive! When I transform, lean towards Xiaoxue. Brother Shouzhe will definitely like it."
"You little beast, I'm so angry..."
The fox mother and daughter began to fight with each other again.
Princess Luojia looked on with blank eyes.
The love life of Mr. Shouye and his fourth brother is really complicated and vivid~ Why is Mr. Shouye so monotonous? Besides refining alchemy, it is alchemy.
Yao Chengchao on the side was even speechless.
He could finally tell that Princess Luojia seemed to like Wang Shouye. And the fox mother and daughter seemed to be interested in Shouzhe.
But they all clearly have wives...
When Yao Chengchao thought of this, he couldn't help but start gurgling sour water out of his heart.
I think Yao Chengchao is so focused on his career that he hasn't gotten married yet, so why doesn't any girl take the initiative to support him?
After all, he is also a popular hero of the Immortal Dynasty now~
Seeing the two foxes, one big and one small, getting more and more passionate and starting to reveal each other's secrets, Princess Luojia finally couldn't bear it any longer and interrupted them: "Ahem, let's get down to business first."
"Okay, let's talk about business first." The Nine-tailed Demon Emperor came to his senses and glared at Yuwen Chiwei again. Then he looked at Princess Luojia again and said seriously, "Wang Shouzhe asked me to come to the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
He came here to protect the safety of Young Master Shou Ye, and secondly, he came to explain some matters, and he needs to communicate with Young Master Shou Ye in person on specific matters."
"Keep him safe?" Princess Luojia frowned slightly, "He stays at home refining elixirs all day long. I haven't seen anyone else for half a month. How can I be unsafe?"
"The specific situation depends on what Wang Shouzhe says. After all, he is the one who is in charge." The Nine-tailed Demon Emperor said, "But in order to keep the secret, some irrelevant people should leave first."
"Everyone get out."
Princess Luojia waved her hand knowingly, and the maids and guards all bowed and exited in understanding.
Soon, only the nine-tailed demon emperor, Princess Luojia, Yao Chengchao, Wang Lixian and Yuwen Chiwei were left in the reception hall.
The Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor's eyes fell on Yao Chengchao.
Yao Chengchao's face was filled with astonishment, he pointed at his nose and said, "Do I want to go out too?"
"Haha~" The Nine-tailed Demon Emperor had a smile on his face, but he was not polite at all in his words, "This is the Wang family's business, what does it have to do with you Yao family? If you don't leave, I don't mind throwing you out."
Yao Chengchao looked indignant: "That's too much! When I became close friends with the Shouzhe family, you, the nine-tailed demon emperor, didn't know where you were? Humph, after all, you have big fists, so I will tolerate you!"
He cursed a lot, but his body turned around very consciously and started walking out. By the time he said the last sentence, the other person had disappeared.
Nine-tailed Demon Emperor?
Princess Luojia was slightly stunned.
This beautiful, enchanting woman with extraordinary temperament is actually a demon emperor?
She didn't know much about the situation in Donggan, but she vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a [Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom] there. Could it be that the beautiful woman in front of her was the Demon Emperor of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom?
No matter what, those who can bear the name of [Demon Emperor] are at least eleventh level ferocious beasts, absolutely strong.
In just a moment, Princess Luojia's attitude toward the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor became even more respectful.
Wait until Yao Chengchao leaves.
The Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor took out a crystal screen, handed it to Wang Lixian and said, "Xian'er, the rest is up to you."
This is a long-distance communication method developed by Wang in the early years. It uses the information sharing principle between Wang Lizian's clone and the original body to achieve long-distance communication and messaging.
The advantages of this method are obvious, but the shortcomings are also great, that is, it cannot be separated from Wang Lixian's clone.
Fortunately, Li Xian currently has three clones. Even if two of them are freed to go out to do business, it will not affect their studies.
Soon, the two parties got in touch.
Wang Shouzhe's image appeared on the crystal screen.
Princess Luojia has always heard Wang Shouye mention her fourth brother, but she has always only heard of his name but never seen him in person. Now when she saw him in person for the first time, she found that Wang Shouye was indeed personable and extraordinary, even more so than Shouye.
Outperformed.
No wonder even the nine-tailed demon emperor was moved.
However, Princess Luojia still feels that the Shouye model is more to her liking.
This Wang Shouzhe looks like an old fox at first glance and is difficult to deal with. Unlike Shouye, he is pure in mind, steady and down-to-earth, and has no other problems except being a bit of a homebody.
"Lingxiao has met Patriarch Shouzhe." Princess Luojia hurriedly stood up and said hello first.
"Shouzhe has met His Royal Highness the Princess." Wang Shouzhe also stood up and returned the gift with a very polite attitude.
"Master Shouzhe, please don't break the spirit Xiao." Princess Luojia said hurriedly, "Master Shouye and I are close friends, and we are friends. You are Master Shouye's fourth brother, and I should meet you. You should still call me
My spirit is healed."
The nine-tailed demon emperor couldn't help but glance at her.
You always talk about the word "confidant" when meeting people, and you have a very low attitude towards the family members who are responsible for the business. This covetousness is very obvious.
Wang Shouzhe was also a man of quick thinking. He immediately understood the situation and said with a smile: "Since we are friends of Shouye, Lingxiao, just call me 'Fourth Brother'. Don't let the head of the family be the head of the family."
It seems that the fourth brother is not disgusted with her.
After the two exchanged some pleasantries, Princess Luojia said: "Shouye is still refining elixirs. If the fourth brother is in an emergency, I will send someone to invite him over."
"No need, it would be more appropriate to talk to you about this matter, Lingxiao." Wang Shouzhe waved his hand and said politely, "My seventh child has a simple and introverted character. He likes to study alchemy. In fact, he doesn't really like alchemy at first. He just wants to
The family has been paying silently. As time goes by, it is inevitable that there will be a lack of human sophistication, so please be more considerate of this, Lingxiao."
"Fourth brother, don't worry, Lingxiao understands this. In today's world, people are impetuous. There are many people who are eager for quick success and quick gains, but few who are practical about their duties. The simple heart of keeping a career that is not disturbed by external things is a rare treasure." Luo
After Princess Jia praised Shouye, she said with a serious expression, "If there is any place where Lingxiao can help, please ask fourth brother to give me instructions."
"You know the Little Demon Lord of the Demon Dynasty, right?" Wang Shouzhe asked.
"This..." Princess Luojia looked stern, "Lingxiao has indeed heard of this person. It is said that this person's bloodline is extremely powerful and he is the strongest among the younger generation of the Demon Dynasty."
Wang Shouzhe nodded, and then shared some information with Princess Luojia.
Ji Yue'er has now joined the Immortal Dynasty camp in order to escape from the Little Demon Lord. According to Ji Yue'er's previous revelations, she secretly inquired and learned that the Little Demon Lord once excavated a true immortal ruins, which contained some powerful elixirs and secret techniques. , I did some experiments secretly.
Those experimental methods were very cruel, and seemed to be related to the secret method of harvesting yin and replenishing yang. This made Ji Yueer even more afraid, so she had to find a way to get rid of the covetousness of the Little Demon Lord, and finally sought refuge in Dongqian.
"When Ji Yue'er shared this information with me, I didn't quite know what those elixirs and secret techniques were. But as the secret investigation deepened, some clues were gradually collected. Later, you and Shouye caught the demon again. After communicating with the remnant soul of Master Ding, I realized that the true immortal ruins opened by the Little Demon Lord were one of the lairs of Master Ding." Wang Shouzhe's expression was unusually serious.
Princess Luojia reacted immediately and said in shock: "Blood Fetus Demonic Pill! It turns out that Wei's Blood Fetus Demonic Pill comes from the Demon Dynasty?! How brave are they to have anything to do with the Little Demon Lord of the Demon Dynasty? !”
Wang Shouzhe nodded and confirmed her conjecture, but then said: "However, at present, I am not 100% sure that this conjecture is true."
"According to Lord Devil's Cauldron, in order to avoid being wanted, he built many lairs, and many treasures were left in them. Although most of them were destroyed, there should be two or three left." Wang Shouzhe was saying. Se said, "Colluding with the Demon Dynasty is a taboo in the Immortal Dynasty camp, but who can be sure that the Wei family didn't also find a Demon Cauldron lair?"
"Fourth brother is right to remind you. Lingxiao will investigate this matter secretly. If the Wei family really dares to secretly collude with the Mo Dynasty, I will not let them go." Princess Luojia's eyes narrowed and she said fiercely, " No wonder, fourth brother, you sent someone to protect Shouye's safety. Rather, it was to prevent the Wei family from retaliating and jumping over the wall. Don't worry, I will protect Mr. Shouye's safety no matter what."
At the same time, the two forces each discovered and excavated a ruins of the Devil's Cauldron's lair. The probability that they are not the same ruins is too low.
Princess Luojia was almost certain that the Wei family was inseparable from the Demon Dynasty.
Wang Shouzhe secretly nodded, very satisfied with Princess Luojia's response, but added: "A high-profile investigation of this matter is more beneficial than a secret investigation, and the method is faster."
Princess Luojia was stunned for a moment, then she immediately reacted and said: "What the fourth brother means is that we are deliberately trying to scare the enemy? So that we can induce the opponent to make mistakes and kill them all?"
"Smart." Wang Shouzhe nodded approvingly, and then said, "Little Demon Lord has two major flaws in his character. One is that he does not allow his subordinates to make mistakes, and once they make mistakes, they need to make up for them. Second, his vision pattern 'Very high, and from time to time he will reveal his ideals and ambitions to dominate the world."
"In fact, it is not difficult to understand that he has such ambitions. His starting point is too high, and his position is too high. With this vision, he will inevitably make plans in advance for the future. What happened in Dazhou has a greater impact It's probably a trap set by him."
Princess Luojia nodded in agreement: "I understand what Fourth Brother means. The previous incident is not over, they will come back again. Even if Wei Donglai retreats, the people behind him who may be the Little Demon Lord will not retreat. After all, this is
It is the [overall situation] of the Little Demon Lord, and it is related to his subsequent arrangements."
"If the Little Demon Lord doesn't come out of seclusion, this matter may be delayed for a while." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "At this moment, the Little Demon Lord comes out of seclusion, so the pressure will naturally be placed on Wei, who caused the failure of the plan."
"And Mr. Shouye ruined their plan, so he will naturally be regarded as a stumbling block and a thorn in the side." Princess Luojia also reacted quickly, with a gleam in her eyes, "What's more, the little demon has the ambition to dominate the world, and kill a genius alchemy in advance.
The Great Master has a hundred benefits and no harm."
Princess Luojia has a flexible mind and quick reactions. In addition, she is also from the royal family, so she is naturally familiar with the behavior patterns of people like the Little Demon Lord. She and Wang Shouzhe exchanged words with each other, and actually changed the name of the Little Demon Lord in just a few words.
Possible layouts were thoroughly analyzed.
Afterwards, the two started a discussion, constantly pushing forward the analysis and plan, and began to plan and discuss how to achieve better results, every detail of it...
The nine-tailed demon emperor on the side felt his hair stand on end.
Human beings are really terrible.
Especially Wang Shouzhe, who used all kinds of schemes, seductions, and dramas.
If he really wanted to deal with her Kyuubi, he might be betrayed by him without even realizing it.
An hour later, the discussion between the two came to an end.
Princess Luojia handed Wang Shouzhe her hand, her face full of admiration: "Fourth brother has a thoughtful mind, and Lingxiao has benefited a lot."
"Lingxiao, you are also quick-thinking and a hero among women." Wang Shouzhe rarely met someone who could keep up with his thoughts. He praised with a smile, "There is no need to disturb Shou Ye about this matter. Just let him focus on refining elixirs."
, just let him cooperate at the critical moment."
"Thank you, fourth brother, for trusting Lingxiao." Princess Luojia was also secretly happy.
Fourth brother actually delegated such an important task to her directly. What kind of trust is this?
It seemed that the fourth brother really regarded her as one of his own.
After a pause, Princess Luojia had a trace of doubt on her face: "There is still something unclear about Lingxiao."
"This is very beneficial to me, Great Zhou, and it also greatly undermines one of the overall plans of the Little Demon Lord. However, this matter has nothing to do with Dong Qian or the Wang family. On the contrary, it will make the Little Demon Lord even more
I am even more jealous of Dong Qian and the Wang family. Why didn’t fourth brother directly recall Shouye to avoid trouble? Could it be that fourth brother is..."
"This matter will be resolved in the future." Wang Shouzhe smiled, "Just think that Fourth Brother has a broad vision and views the problem from the perspective of the world, and is just sniping at the Little Demon Lord in advance."
Princess Luojia was stunned at first, and then she held her hands in admiration and said: "Fourth brother has a heart for the world, Lingxiao admires it. If everyone in the world can be like you and take the initiative to share the worries of His Majesty the Immortal Emperor, why should our Immortal Dynasty be unhappy?"
Princess Luojia thought that Wang Shouzhe was sharing the Immortal Emperor's worries, but the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor's thoughts took a turn and he couldn't help but murmur.
Does Wang Shouzhe, an old fox, really want to be the Immortal Emperor?
Does Kyuubi need a ride in advance?
After all, the Immortal Princess sounds very nice.
…
After some time.
Less than a hundred miles away from the capital, Muxian City, there is a village. On the surface, there is no difference between this village and the surrounding farms, but there is a different world deep underground.
The deep corridors are as intricate as a spider web. Under the farm, a huge underground palace is built, like an independent underground world.
now.
In the underground palace.
Spirit lamps were embedded at both ends of the corridor, illuminating the surrounding stone walls. However, these lamps had not been replaced with spiritual stones for an unknown period of time, and the dim light was only able to dispel the darkness, even the silhouettes of people could not be seen.
The photo is not clear.
A figure walked slowly in the corridor, silently.
The light in the corridor was too dark, and the man's face was hidden in the darkness and could not be seen clearly. Only the tall and thin figure and the tall and straight figure could tell that he was a young man.
I don’t know how long I walked before the corridor finally reached the end.
What suddenly opened up ahead was a brightly lit underground palace.
The furnishings in the underground palace are simple, but not shabby at all. Everything you see is of exquisite quality.
At this moment, a cloaked man had already been sitting on the jade chair in the underground palace.
The black cloak wrapped around his whole body, hiding his breath and making his presence almost invisible. Even the light of the spiritual lamp shining on his cloak seemed to be absorbed by the cloak. It seemed
Extremely mysterious.
Under the cloak, the only thing exposed was a small section of his jaw, which was thin and pale, reminiscent of the skin of a dead person.
Upon seeing the cloaked man, the visitor immediately stepped forward and saluted with a respectful gesture: "I've seen the envoy."
The bright light shines on the visitor, clearly illuminating the visitor's facial features and figure.
He was a young man with a tall and straight figure and good appearance.
If Princess Luojia were here, she would definitely be able to tell at a glance that this person is the young prince of the Wei Palace, Wei Donglai.
"So the young prince still remembers me?" The man in the cloak sneered when he saw this, his voice was hoarse and dry.
"The envoy was joking. You are the one close to the Lord, and you represent the Lord's will. Donglai has always respected you, how dare you have the slightest intention of neglect?" Wei Donglai sneered, his expression a little uneasy and uneasy, "I don't know what the envoy has called me.
Come here from the east, what are your orders?"
"There has been some unrest in Muxian City recently. Many of our hidden stakes have been pulled out. Do you know about this?" The cloaked man's voice was cold, with obvious anger in his tone.
If it weren't for the dead men in those hidden piles, who would have taken poison and committed suicide as soon as they realized something was wrong, I'm afraid they would have been exposed!
"Messenger, forgive me." Wei Donglai panicked and hurriedly bowed his hands, "It was the blood-embroidered magic pill that made the woman Ji Lingxiao suspicious, so she started the investigation with great fanfare. I have ordered people to finish it secretly and cut off this
Don’t worry, she won’t be able to find anything about us.”
"After all, you are not useless." The cloaked man sneered, "Originally, according to our plan, as long as you married Ji Lingxiao, we would secretly support the cowardly and incompetent [Ji Linyu] to become the emperor's son. Hundreds of years later,
, when Emperor Yuanping dies, there will be no threat to the Northern Zhou royal family."
"When the time comes, as the new King of Wei, you can take your place, take charge of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and lead the Northern Zhou Dynasty to surrender to our demon dynasty. But it turns out that something is wrong with you in the first step. Now most princes in the Northern Zhou royal family prefer Ji Lingxiao.
Some people have already suggested that she should be promoted as the emperor's daughter. If this continues, my lord's plan may fall short."
At the end of the sentence, the cloaked man's tone had become extremely stern, and the aura around him gradually became terrifying: "Tell me, how are you going to explain it to the Lord?"
Wei Donglai's face turned pale and he immediately lowered his head and begged for mercy: "Donglai knows his mistake. Please give me another chance. Donglai will do his best to make up for his mistake."
The cloaked man snorted coldly, obviously still angry.
The atmosphere in the cave was a little stagnant for a while.
After a while, he spoke again: "For the sake of your sense, I'll give you a chance."
"The Lord has an order that Wang Shouye and Princess Luojia must not be left here. You will be given one year to get rid of them at all costs."
Wei Donglai's heart skipped a beat: "This..."
"Why, you don't want to?" Seeing his hesitation, the cloaked man's voice suddenly turned cold.
"No, no, no." Seeing that something was wrong, Wei Donglai said quickly, "That's not what Donglai meant. It's just that Wang Shouye is addicted to alchemy and has hardly left home these days. Princess Luojia is always protected by strong people.
If you want to get rid of these two people, Dong Lai's ability may not be enough."
"And if too many people from Prince Wei's palace are used, the secret may be exposed easily."
"Don't worry about this. The power in the Lord's hands is beyond your imagination." The cloaked man snorted coldly, "You are responsible for finding and creating opportunities, and I will arrange the manpower."
With that said, he stood up and walked into the corridor at the other end of the cave.
"The time is only one year. After one year, if you haven't completed the task, don't blame me for being rude." His voice came from the corridor, as if it had its own reverberation, echoing endlessly.
After a while, his figure completely disappeared into the dark corridor.
Wei Donglai maintained his bowing posture and watched him leave. It was not until his figure completely disappeared that he stood up straight again.
Under the light, the humility and sincerity on his face had completely faded away at some point, replaced by a sarcastic sneer.
"Now that I still have use for you, I'll let you continue to be arrogant for a while."
The whole country surrendered to the demonic dynasty? Do you really think you are stupid?
The Wei family has no foundation in the Demon Dynasty. If they really defect to it, they will most likely be ostracized and inevitably treated as cannon fodder.
Rather than taking this risk, it is better to stay in the Immortal Dynasty camp. After all, there is a family with the same roots as the Jingan Wei family here in the Immortal Dynasty, who can help each other. And as long as the backup plan is arranged in advance, we can naturally find a way to usurp the throne.
Things have come to an end.
Naturally [Ji Linyu] will take the blame for colluding with the demonic dynasty.
As for the other party's revenge...
If he really became the Great Emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and had the Immortal Emperor backing him, how could he be afraid of him?
As long as he, Wei Donglai, ascends the throne of God, these people will have no use value. By then, he will want to see how these people can still be so arrogant on the territory of the Immortal Dynasty!
Cursing a few words in his heart, Wei Donglai didn't stay long, turned around and entered the corridor again along the way he came.
Soon, his figure disappeared deep into the corridor.
Silence returned to the underground palace again. Except for the slight flickering of lights, everything was silent, as if nothing had happened.
As both sides began to plot secretly.
An invisible net, under Wei Donglai's layout, gradually enveloped Wang Shouye.
All we have to do is wait for Wang Shouye to leave Princess Luojia's mansion once, and then we can find a way to lure him to a remote place outside Muxian City.
But what Wei Donglai never expected was that day after day, day after day, Wang Shouye would not go out even once.
According to detailed reports, he was either refining or refining elixirs every day.
Even Princess Luojia got angry several times.
This made Wei Donglai very angry. What is wrong with this person? How could he stay like this?
at the same time.
Wang Shouye looked at a batch of newly released sixth-grade elixir [Wuji Baodan], his face was filled with joy and a sense of accomplishment.
The cost of this furnace of Infinite Treasure Pills is 50,000 Immortal Crystals. Normally, three pills are needed to make the money back, but he made five pills in this furnace! Not only can he make back his money, but he can also make a lot of money.
But Wang Shouye was not satisfied yet. After putting away the elixir, he kept thinking and summarizing the shortcomings this time, and gradually became addicted to it again.
After resting for a few days, he decided to refine another furnace of Wuji Precious Pills.
The joy of growing up in alchemy is unimaginable to others.
Even the nine-tailed demon emperor is going crazy.
Such fucking protection, isn't Wang Shouzhe wasting his money on hiring her as a bodyguard?
