There was a quiet silence in the second prince's residence, and the fragrance of tea in the small pavilion was intoxicating. But separated by a wall, it seems that the chaos from the outside world can hardly invade this place.
Baili Qingfeng and Zuo Fengyuan were playing chess. He seemed a little happy to have a real opponent. On the side, Song Zheng closed his eyes and rested, while Ji Changfeng wiped his sword with a towel, but he didn't know what he was waiting for.
Only Zhu Wanquan was lying half asleep, still awake, and not nervous at all. Zuo Fengyuan looked at the second prince who was concentrating on playing chess with some doubts in his heart.
Although he watched the court situation coldly, he knew everything. The battle between the princes was not without danger, but this moment was the last moment.
Zuo Fengyuan couldn't understand why Baili Qingfeng had stopped moving again. With everyone in the court, Baili Qingfeng was the only person he couldn't see through.
"Mr. Zuo Ge, it's your turn." Baili Qingfeng's reminder brought Zuo Fengyuan back to his mind. He nodded quickly, stretched out his hand to place a piece, and said: "I feel inferior to the second prince for his chess skills. Now he can't win." Pan, my failure has been exposed, even if I continue to fall, I will never recover." Baili Qingfeng smiled and said nothing.
At this time, the door of the mansion was knocked open. Baili Taizao threw the seriously injured Baili Shuze into the yard and gasped: "I'm exhausted. Look, you are pampering yourself day by day and growing up." Useless fat!" Baili Shuze smiled bitterly, he is not fat at all, not to mention Baili Taizao's cultivation, how could he not be able to carry him.
Zuo Fengyuan stood up, surprised, and quickly handed over his hands: "Your Majesty, this is..."
"Don't ask!" Baili Taizao waved his hand and pointed at Baili Shuze and said: "Ask him. I don't know anything. If someone brings him here, he will naturally die. If he dies, it's your business. Follow him. I have nothing to do with it, I have to leave, there is still a lot of fun to see!" After saying that, Baili Taizai walked out of the house and disappeared.
Zuo Fengyuan wanted to ask but had no chance. Baili Qingfeng stepped forward to help Baili Shuze, put it on the spring bench next to him, used Taoist power to help heal his injuries, and asked: "Who did this, the sixth brother or the fourth brother?"
"It's the fourth brother!" Baili Shuze sighed softly. He had never thought that each of his brothers had dangers in their hearts and a city in their chests.
This time it really made him see it.
"It turns out to be the fourth brother." Baili Qingfeng nodded. It was both unexpected and reasonable. But what concerned him more was how his sixth brother Baili Hanran was absent from the conversation at the critical moment. Baili Shuze took the elixir, and Baili Qingfeng and Song Zheng used Taoist power to heal his injuries, and he was fine for the time being.
When Baili Shuze opened his eyes again, he asked Baili Qingfeng: "I am just a playboy. I was lucky enough to be born in the royal family, but I can't figure out how big or small this dispute of interests is. I only hope that the emperor can let me today." Understand that even if you die, you will not feel wronged." Baili Shuze has always avoided political affairs, but now that the princes and courtiers are dying one by one, and Taiyue City is experiencing internal and external troubles, he has to ask about these things.
Baili Qingfeng saw Baili Shuze's eyes were clear and not deep at all, and smiled and said: "Ask whatever you want to ask. Even if the world is ruined, you and I are still the same countrymen. There is nothing to hide."
"Did you and grandpa kill my eldest brother?" Baili Shuze said something shocking, which made Zuo Fengyuan and Song Zheng slightly change their expressions.
Zhu Wanquan sat up suddenly and tried to avoid listening.
"You don't need to avoid it," Baili Qingfeng said with a smile, "I can tell you, no!"
"really not"
"Really not!" Baili Qingfeng sat down and said slowly: "Grandpa wanted me to replace him, so Zhou Qing and Wang Yuanzhong fought endlessly. But my grandpa and I never poisoned my eldest brother. " Baili Shuze saw that Baili Qingfeng was not lying, so he believed it and asked again: "What about Wang Yuanzhong, Jia Chengdao's death..."
"That's all my father's business," Baili Qingfeng said: "My father doesn't want them to live, it's not because I want them to die."
"Second brother, what have you done to become the crown prince?" Baili Shuze didn't believe that everything that happened before had nothing to do with Baili Qingfeng.
Because the person who benefits most from all this is the second brother in front of him.
"What have I done..." Baili Qingfeng smiled and looked at the chessboard on the table: "It was just playing chess."
"Playing chess" Baili Shuze was confused and stared at Baili Qingfeng. He didn't want to guess riddles now, he just wanted to get the answer he wanted.
"Third brother, the sun, moon, and stars are all included in this vast sky. Although there are clouds and sunshine, frost, rain and snow, they will eventually fall into the vast ocean." Baili Qingfeng smiled slightly: "There is only one wisp of breeze wandering around. Between heaven and earth, although it can cause violent storms, it itself is extremely gentle and has never thought of harming others." Hearing this, Baili Shuze remained silent... Qing'an City was peaceful and peaceful, and it had been quiet and peaceful since the day before yesterday. As soon as the scene was over, the people who were chasing after the wind and shadows withdrew, and the ancient city returned to its original appearance.
The divine light of the teleportation formation in the center of the city appeared, and Baili Xiyu's figure stepped out in one step, then climbed onto the clouds and headed towards the palace.
Inside the main hall, Xiaoyao King Baili Qianshan was practicing. He suddenly opened his eyes and asked with a smile: "My nephew is not leading the troops, why did he come to my place?" As soon as he finished speaking, Baili Xiyu stepped in at the door of the main hall. , looked sad, and said: "I heard that eldest brother... I came to see him for the last time!" As soon as these words came out, Baili Qianshan frowned slightly, and then said: "Life and death, destiny and wealth are in heaven, good nephew Please express your condolences and comply with the change." Baili Xiyu thought in his heart and came up to Baili Qianshan and said: "Uncle, where are the bones of eldest brother? Can I allow my nephew to go and take a look?"
"This..." Baili Qianshan's thoughts suddenly changed and he said: "I was taken to Taiyue City by Wang Jin the day before yesterday. He only said that it was the Holy One's decree to hold a state funeral for the prince. Don't you know that my nephew doesn't know?"
"That's it!" Baili Xi's expression remained unchanged, and she cupped her hands and said, "Since the elder brother's body has been brought back to Taiyue City, my nephew will leave without further interruption." Baili Qianshan nodded: " I know that my nephew Xian has an important position, so I won’t keep you here. May you have a safe trip and a safe journey.” The two of them left the hall with polite greetings.
Seeing Baili Xi go away in the air, Baili Qianshan replaced the guards behind him and ordered: "Go and see the teleportation array to see if he has left Qing'an City!"
"Yes!" Baili Xiyu left the palace and disappeared into the busy city. He knew in his heart that Baili Qianshan was lying, and Baili Changkong's body was in his hands, so he never left.
When night falls, the drums are beating for the first time. Baili Xiyu changed into black clothes and sneaked into the palace.
Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion was originally a rebuilt palace of the former Han Dynasty. It was very large and difficult to search for a while.
"The prince's body is no small matter, it must be in a critical place! Baili Qianshan is indeed alert, but his thoughts cannot be hidden from me." Baili Xiyu thought, and went to a high tower northwest of the palace. , it is said that the Xiaoyao King specializes in searching for treasures and immortal objects in the world, and built a high tower named
"Tianqi Pavilion" to store. This high tower must be where this place is, and the prince's body will definitely be placed in it.
Baili Xi's body control skills were weird, and she quickly arrived near the high tower. The flames in her palm turned into a divine sword, broke through a corner of the protective formation, and broke in.
It was pitch black inside the tower, and it was impossible to tell the difference between up, down, left, south, east, and west. Baili Xiyu was shocked and realized that he had entered the formation and was trapped in it.
On a high pavilion not far away, Baili Qianshan looked at the tower and smiled coldly. He sent people to check the formation altar and found that Baili Xiyu had not left Qing'an City at all. He expected that he would come to visit the mansion tonight, so he set up a suspicious formation to lure him into taking the bait.
But now Baili Xiyu had indeed fallen into the trap, but she was putting him in a difficult position: "He is the prince after all, so he has a lot to do with it!" Just as he was distressed, a guard came to report: "Someone followed the fourth prince and also sneaked into the house."
"Oh" Baili Qianshan heard this and said: "Since we are here to find Baili Xiyu, let them meet each other, and don't say that I am a cruel uncle. Although I am cruel, I can't be cruel to them. , it can’t even accommodate a corpse. Go ahead, just don’t let them find out.”
"Take orders!" In the pagoda array, Baili Xiyu's whole body was burning with fire, the Taoist rhymes were criss-crossing, and the fire kept roaring in the darkness, but it was still to no avail.
Baili Xiyu secretly gritted his teeth and reached out to take out a piece of divine jade. The divine jade shone with splendor and wrapped Baili Xiyu's body. Then there was a burst of space shock and disappeared.
The next time he appeared, he was outside the pagoda. The brilliance of the divine jade in Baili Xiyu's hand dissipated and turned into an ordinary piece of gravel.
This is a divine stone of chaos, with a trace of space law inside it. It can ignore any formation and change places.
Although Baili Xiyu had obtained this divine item long ago, he had been reluctant to use it. It was really helpless to use it today, and it made him even more heartbroken.
But as soon as he came out, an invisible force enveloped him, and then a big foot fell from the sky and landed on Baili Xiyu.
Baili Xiyu was blessed by the avenue of fire all over her body. She stretched out her hand to draw out the musket and stabbed it at the sole of the giant foot.
The flames turned into dragons, roaring forward.
"Ouch, this is burning me to death!" The giant feet were retracted into the trouser legs, and the waiter in the shop jumped around on the spot with a crutch: "Good boy, you have a moment!" Baili Xiyu was afraid of alerting the snake, so she walked away.
Unexpectedly, a spatula hit him in mid-air. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to block it, but was blown away and fell into a large pot.
The cauldron was billowing with heat, like a stir-frying spoon, trapping Baili Xiyu in it. Baili Xi Yuzheng didn't know what to do. Suddenly he saw a big hole leaking out of the side of the pot. He flicked his gun and the fire pierced the big hole, and he took the opportunity to escape.
The fat chef next to him put away the wok, shook his head helplessly and said: "Last time, in order to save the boy, the pot leaked and it was not repaired. Madam boss, it's up to you this time!" As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to run away. Baili Xiyu suddenly became unable to move.
Immediately afterwards, I saw the boss lady's eyes, one black and one white, spinning continuously, making people confused. The landlady stretched out her hand and hit Baili Xiyu between the eyebrows, and then hit Baili Xiyu in the chest with a palm.
Baili Xiyu screamed and fell to the ground, seriously injured. The landlady came down and said to the two of them: "You two are useless, you can't handle such a small thing. What's the use of raising you? I'm eating so much for nothing. You don't want this month's regular money!" The waiter and the chef complained endlessly and looked at each other with sympathy beyond words.
The proprietress walked up to Baili Xiyu and said with a smile: "We have fought and made troubles. It's time for this little brother to get on his way." Before he finished speaking, a golden light fell from the sky, and Xiaoyao King Baili Qianshan stood in the void. Above it, the Taoist energy surrounding it enveloped the surrounding area, making people afraid to look directly at it.
He smiled slightly and said to the landlady: "Can you give me some face and spare his life?"
"Oh." The landlady raised her eyebrows and sneered: "I'm not interested in your old face at all. I don't know how much face you have with me. Maybe you think we are afraid of you?"
