The person on the tower who was wearing a black cloak and a white beard scanned the scene above the palace square. Although the old but sharp eyes under the cloak were as sharp as an eagle, there was a hint of complexity.
Hearing Young Master Liu's words of invitation to him again, the cloaked man was silent for a long time before letting out a hearty laugh.
"The prince has invited you again and again, and it is natural that he is so kind that it is hard to refuse. It would be rude for me to refuse."
The moment the cloaked man finished speaking, the cloaked man who had been standing on the roof of the city tower suddenly leaped into the air, leaving blurry afterimages in the air and shooting towards the position where Liu Dashao was standing. .
Judging from the body-protecting Qi lingering around his body, he must be a supreme master in the innate realm.
In a few breaths, the cloaked man had already leapt a thousand meters in the air and stopped less than three feet away from Young Master Liu.
At such a close distance, if the man in black had suddenly done something to Young Master Liu, no one present would have been able to react.
Looking at the cloaked man who had stopped in front of him in the blink of an eye, Young Master Liu's eyes suddenly shrank, and the expression on his face became serious.
Liu Mingzhi even felt that his heart was pounding. He had to admit that if the man in black cloak in front of him wanted to take action against him, with his own strength, in addition to the instinct of a martial arts practitioner, Apart from passively defending against its attacks, there was no time to fight back.
Passive defense means having to withstand the fatal blow from the cloaked man that catches you off guard.
And if he suffered a fatal blow from the cloaked man, he might not be killed on the spot, but he would definitely be seriously injured. As for the extent of the injury, Liu Mingzhi didn't know.
In front of his eyes, the body-protecting energy that had been lingering around him when the man in black cloak flew through the air flashed before his eyes. Liu Mingzhi knew that the man in cloak in front of him must be a master in the innate realm.
Thinking of this, Liu Mingzhi suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. He was also in an innate state. Is the gap between him and the cloaked man in front of him so big?
While Liu Mingzhi was thinking, Bai Ling'er and the Bai family had quietly leapt in front of Young Master Liu to protect him. They stared at the man in black cloak in front of him with sharp and alert eyes, ready to attack at any time. .
The man in the cloak ignored Bai Ling'er and the Bai family members. The sharp eyes exposed under the cloak looked at Young Master Liu with a flash of complicated meaning.
"My lord, long time no see.
Although I haven't seen him for many years since Fengyundu, I can tell that the prince is not only in good health, but his energy and blood are as strong as the sun.
In this way, I don’t need to say more about some flattering words that are suspected of being flattering. "
Liu Mingzhi looked at the cloaked man in front of him quietly, hesitated slightly and waved his hands to Bai Ling'er and the others in front of him.
"Thirteenth Aunt, Sixth Aunt, Eighth Aunt, Fourth Uncle, Seventh Uncle, please step back first. It'll be okay."
Bai Ling'er and the others glanced sideways at Young Master Liu, and nodded hesitantly when they saw the calm look on his face. They put away their offensive posture and retreated a few steps away from Liu Mingzhi to wait.
However, although Bai Ling'er and the others stepped aside, their expressions were full of vigilance, and they stared at the cloaked man with vigilant eyes, ready to take action at any time to prevent any accidents.
Liu Mingzhi breathed a silent sigh to calm down his somewhat fluctuating mood, smiled lightly and gave the cloaked man a fist.
"What the senior said is that we haven't seen each other for many years. When I hear the powerful voice of the senior, I know that the senior is still going strong. In this case, there is no need for the junior to say some polite words.
Ever since we parted ways in the past, the juniors have been sending people to search for the whereabouts of the seniors over the years. However, the seniors are extremely skilled, and they have always been like a dragon.
Even though the juniors tried their best, they still couldn't find the whereabouts of their seniors.
Although you and I have never met each other over the years, we have had some interactions during this period. The last time the junior and senior were closest to each other was probably the trip to the ancestral temple a few months ago.
It's a pity that the senior's whereabouts were elusive and he didn't want to come out to meet me. He sent me away as a junior with just a letter. For this reason, the junior secretly regretted it for a long time.
These days, the junior has been thinking about the next time he will deal with the senior.
Unexpectedly, the senior gave the junior a sudden surprise, and he showed up to meet the junior.
I don’t know if this can be considered as trying hard to find a place without any effort at all. "
Listening to Young Master Liu's conversation with him, there was a strange color in the eyes of the cloaked man.
"Your Majesty already knows who I am?"
Liu Mingzhi turned his head slightly and looked at the people on both sides. He chuckled as the cloaked man lowered his voice.
“Although the junior and senior have never met, the senior’s voice will never be forgotten by the junior in his lifetime.
After all, senior was the one who almost caused junior and me to die young. Although I dare not say that I could hear the voice of senior when he turned to ashes, I still have it fresh in my memory!
When the senior spoke for the first time on the tower, the junior did not dare to confirm the senior's identity, but after the senior stood in front of the junior and spoke again, the junior immediately recognized who the senior was.
And looking at the whole world, you are the only one who dares to appear so arrogantly in front of the juniors alone in broad daylight.
Seniors and juniors of The Bourne Shadow Master are right, right? "
Liu Mingzhi revealed his identity in one sentence, making the film owner's eyes even more complicated.
"Haha! I didn't expect that Your Majesty would have such a profound impression on me. I am really flattered by this old man!"
"That's also senior's own ability. Senior, since you have already appeared, you might as well explain your purpose.
Although the juniors are not afraid of the seniors, they do not want to feel like they are being watched in secret by a man-eating tiger. "
"The prince is joking. It happens to be the wedding day of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Princess Jingyao. Naturally, I am here to congratulate the newlyweds.
Otherwise, in this broad daylight, I can't be here to assassinate the prince, right? "
After the shadow master finished speaking, his right hand under the cloak swam in the cloak. The shadow master's behavior made everyone present look wary. Even Mr. Liu himself acted secretly on guard.
The film owner noticed everyone's reaction, and the corner of his mouth exposed under the cloak raised a sarcastic smile.
Fortunately, everyone only had a false alarm, and saw the film owner slowly taking out a medium-sized gift box from under his cloak and handing it to Liu Mingzhi.
"I would like to offer you a small gift, Li Kan, to congratulate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness Princess Jingyao on their happy marriage."
With a suspicious look in his eyes, Liu Mingzhi hesitantly reached out to take the gift box handed over by the film host. When the gift box was received, the film host still did not do anything evil, and Liu Mingzhi's tense mind relaxed.
The film owner looked at the gift box that Young Master Liu was holding in his hand, moved slightly sideways, walked around Young Master Liu, and walked silently towards the crowd behind Young Master Liu.
Upon seeing this, Liu Mingzhi hurriedly turned around and followed him, hanging a few steps away from the film owner to prevent him from doing anything untoward to his wife, children, and children.
Under everyone's wary gaze, the film owner slowly walked up to Nangong Meng and the third princess and landed in front of the mother and daughter with a bang.
"Old slave Li Kan, pay your respects to the Empress Dowager, and pay your respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess. Your Majesty is a thousand years old, and the Princess is a thousand years old. I am polite to you."
Nangong Meng, mother and daughter, looked at each other in disbelief when they saw the film owner's respectful behavior and listened to the film owner's extremely respectful words.
The mother and daughter really don't know who the film owner is, but they understand from his title of Li Kan that the person kneeling in front of them should be some of the people left by Ruizong Li Zheng in the past. A veteran.
The movie owner's behavior also stunned everyone except Nangong Meng and her daughter. They looked at the movie owner kneeling on the ground with complicated expressions in their eyes.
It turns out that this person is actually a veteran of the previous dynasty, or it can be said to be a remnant of the previous dynasty. I don’t know if this person’s appearance is a blessing or a curse.
More than a dozen steps away, some senior ministers from several dynasties looked at the figure of the shadow master, with shame and entanglement in their eyes.
Compared to the film owner, a former court official who was always respectful to Nangong Meng and the three princesses, he and others seemed to have become villains who waited for sellers to seek glory.
"No gift."
"Senior, please forgive me."
"Old slave, thank you to the Empress Dowager, and thank you to Her Royal Highness the Princess.
The old slave still has something to say to King Yan side by side, so he won't say more to the empress and the princess.
Please forgive me, Your Majesty the Queen and Princess, the old slave moved away. "
The film owner did not wait for Nangong Meng and his daughter to respond, turned around and walked towards Young Master Liu again.
"Your Majesty, my congratulatory gift has been delivered. Next, I have an invitation to send to Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will accept it.
Of course, it’s not up to the prince to accept it or not; "
The little cutie standing in the front row closest to Mr. Liu heard that the film owner dared to say tyrannical words to his father, and immediately frowned and glared at the film owner.
"How dare you be so rude to my princess's father."
The film owner was stunned and looked at the little cutie with sharp eyes. After staring at the little cutie for a while, the film owner showed a look of understanding in his eyes.
"It turns out to be Her Royal Highness Princess Yue'er. I'm sorry, I have met Her Royal Highness Princess Yue'er."
The little cutie felt the fierce tiger-like gaze of the film master, and subconsciously shrank her neck and hid behind Mr. Liu. Her white and jade-like hands grasped her father's robe and stared at the film master. .
"How arrogant. Not only do you dare to be rude to my father, but you also dare to scare this princess with your eyes. You are too arrogant."
After the little cutie finished speaking, she hurriedly shrank behind her father, fearing to see the film owner's sharp eyes that looked like they could eat children again.
In response to the little cutie's arrogant and timid behavior, the actor's mouth turned into a faint smile, and then returned to normal.
The protagonist of Little Cutie is no stranger to him. He had dealt with Little Cutie when he served Li Baiyu, the First Emperor of Wuzong, after Emperor Ruizong's great success. When Little Cutie went to Beijing alone and helped the First Emperor of Wuzong to resist the rebels of the kings, he had dealt with Little Cutie.
The movie owner also likes this clever ghost, a particularly lovable little princess.
It's just that the little princess of the Jin Kingdom didn't know her identity in the past. After all, it seems that people like herself can only live in the darkness forever.
The film owner is not angry at the cute little one scolding him in public, as she is one of his few old friends.
The film owner withdrew his gaze, took out an invitation from his sleeve and flicked it towards Young Master Liu.
An ordinary invitation in the hands of the film owner actually showed a speed more terrifying than a flying arrow, leaving an afterimage invisible to the naked eye in the air and arriving in front of Young Master Liu.
Liu Mingzhi instinctively reached out and took the invitation firmly in his hand.
"Your Highness, after the wedding of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Princess Jingyao, I and my brothers were waiting for Your Highness at the imperial mausoleum on the outskirts of Beijing.
Your Majesty has received the invitation. I wonder if your Majesty dares to attend the appointment? "
The moment Liu Mingzhi took the invitation and was surprised, the shadow master had disappeared from the spot, leaving behind blurry afterimages and flying towards the outside of the palace.
It's just that those last words, compared to Mr. Liu's previous words of "dare not", seemed to be a bit provocative, to treat others with their own way.
The little cutie who was hiding behind her father heard the shadow master's erratic words echoing in the air, and quickly turned her head to look in the direction of the palace gate.
However, after only seeing an afterimage, the figure of the shadow owner disappeared into the palace.
The little cutie angrily grabbed her slender waist with her hands.
"Isn't it reasonable for you to invite people to a banquet?"
