"Keep staring!"
In the Imperial Palace, Shou'an Hall, Emperor Shang came to his senses and ordered.
"yes!"
The Shadow Guard took the order and turned to leave.
The empty Shou'an Palace was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop. Emperor Shang sat at the chess table, looking at the chess game in front of him, frowning slightly.
The legitimate son of the Li family must have done it on purpose.
Taking Mu Jin to Bai'er's place and letting Mu Jin perform the World-Suppressing Art in front of Bai'er was obviously a conspiracy.
The question now is what is the purpose of the legitimate son of the Li family.
Judging from the news sent from the north, Wen Qing has indeed figured out the ninth form of the World-Suppressing Art. There is no doubt that he will definitely teach all nine forms of martial arts to Mu Jin.
Based on the friendship between the Li family's legitimate son and Bai'er, will this ninth style be taught?
In his thoughts, Shang Huang casually threw the chess pieces in his hand into the chess box, stood up and walked to the window, looking out the window with a look of concentration on his face.
It seems that if there is a chance, it is time to test Bai'er.
"His Majesty."
At this time, outside the palace, a chamberlain came and saluted respectfully, "Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess left the palace and went to the Fourth Highness."
"knew."
Emperor Shang did not look back and said calmly, "Go down first."
"Slave, please resign!"
The chamberlain took the order and bowed back.
In front of the window, Emperor Shang raised his hand. Between his two fingers, a white chess piece appeared, and he immediately waved it onto the chessboard behind.
The white pieces fall, the black pieces fall, and the whole game is lost.
The Fourth Prince's Mansion.
backyard.
Murong's arrival raised the average IQ of several people.
The reason is that the pitfall of Mubai is too big, which lowers the average level too much.
"Li Jiaoxi, what you did in the Jingmu Mansion must have aroused the dissatisfaction of the father. Recently, it is better to be more careful." Murong reminded the person in front of him with a very serious expression.
"Your Highness the Princess is interested."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "I have been in the palace for so long, and the Fourth Highness has not only come to me for discussion, but also ridiculed me, and has not said a word of concern at all."
"If brother could think of this, my mother and I wouldn't be so worried."
Murong glanced at his brother and said dissatisfiedly, "Come to think of it, brother still hasn't figured out what happened in Jingmu Mansion that day."
On the side, Mu Bai listened to the two people's overt and insidious sarcasm. He looked at his nose and his heart without saying a word, pretending that he didn't hear anything.
"Not in a hurry."
Li Ziye smiled softly and responded, "To be a king, you only need to know people and make good use of them. It is not necessary to know everything. Being scheming is not necessarily a good thing."
"Mr. Li is scolding himself." Murong turned his gaze and looked at the person in front of him, and said with a half-smile.
"Your Highness the Princess has a deep misunderstanding of me."
Li Ziye responded with a smile, "I've always been open-minded."
"..."
Murong rolled his eyes and said, "Teacher Li said this without even blushing. Okay, I'm not poor anymore. Just remember my words, Teacher Li. Be careful these days."
At the end of the sentence, Murong's expression became very serious and he stopped joking.
"Don't worry, Your Highness Princess."
Li Ziye also suppressed his smile and nodded in response, "When I decided to do this, I was already prepared."
While speaking, Li Ziye glanced at the sky and saw that it was still early. He looked at Murong in front of him and asked, "Your Highness, what should I do if Your Majesty brings up the matter of marriage again?"
"Then it depends on how Professor Li handles it."
Murong said with a complicated expression, "A woman's words always have no weight in this kind of thing. Even if I am the princess of Dashang, it is the same."
"Can I understand what Your Highness the Princess means, that I can make the final decision on this matter? In emergencies, I can follow the authority urgently." Li Ziye asked in a serious tone.
Murong hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!"
"Then I understand."
Li Ziye nodded and said calmly, "Thank you very much for your trust, Princess."
Next to him, Mu Jin heard the conversation between the two and was slightly shocked.
According to the wishes of the young master and the princess, your majesty may use marriage again to deal with the Li family.
Is it really worth it to use the life-long event of one's own daughter as a means to bring down a Li family who has no objection?
"The sun sets really slowly today."
Having nothing to talk about, Li Ziye picked up the teapot, poured himself another cup of tea, and said while drinking.
"What is Brother Li talking about?"
Mu Bai looked slightly startled, looked up at the scorching sun on the horizon, and asked in confusion, "What are you going to do when the sun sets?"
"I tell you, you don't understand either."
Li Ziye responded casually, "I still won't explain it. It's too troublesome. Your Highness, please slowly understand it yourself."
On the side, Murong's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this.
If you have nothing to do and you continue to work hard here, you must be doing it for others to see.
Is it possible that Professor Li wants to tell others something?
At this time, the only person who could be so interested in Professor Li was her father.
In the backyard, the atmosphere became quiet because no one spoke.
Li Ziye stood in the courtyard, staring at the sun, waiting to clock in and get off work, not wanting to say a word.
Because Murong more or less guessed some reasons, he also remained silent and was in a daze together.
Seeing that both of them were silent, Mu Bai was confused and did not dare to say anything. He looked up at the sun from time to time and waited for the sunset.
As for Hibiscus, she talks little, no one asks questions, and she rarely takes the initiative to speak.
As a result, the backyard, which was bustling just now, became extremely quiet, and it was a bit eerie.
Finally, when Li Ziye was about to finish the pot of tea in his hand, the sun began to set in the west.
"It's time to get off work!"
When Li Ziye saw this, he was moved to tears. Not wanting to stay for another half second, he put the teacup and teapot into Mu Bai's hands, then turned around and left.
Hibiscus immediately followed quickly and left the backyard of the palace together.
"Murong, Brother Li, what do you mean?"
In the courtyard, Mu Bai couldn't help but feel doubtful. He looked at his sister beside him and asked.
"Brother, please take your time to understand. I'm going back to the palace."
Murong didn't mean to explain at all, and walked towards the outside of the courtyard.
"strange."
Mu Bai shook his head helplessly, stopped thinking about it, and continued practicing his sword.
Sunset.
Imperial Palace, Shou'an Hall.
Emperor Shang frowned slightly after hearing the Shadow Guard's report.
After the competition, there was no movement?
There wasn't even a sound of speaking, which was strange.
It's impossible not to say a word for such a long time.
There is only one explanation, sound transmission.
In Bai'er's own house, it was important to transmit messages.
Could it be the cultivation method of the ninth form of the World-Suppressing Technique?
Or maybe it has something to do with Murong's matter?
In his thoughts, Emperor Shang clenched his right hand unconsciously, and the chess piece in his hand shattered and then turned into powder.
After a while, Emperor Shang came to his senses, picked up the silk cloth on the side, and wiped off the chess powder on his hands.
Murong Chongming probably couldn't ask anything, he could only ask Bai'er.
The moon rises in the east.
Li Yuan, Li Ziye stood under the moon, looking in the direction of the palace with a cold look on his face.
Old fox, if you can find out the reason from Mu Bai, I will eat all your two boxes of chess pieces!
