King Ping, as his name suggests, is over fifty years old, with a plain face and a peaceful demeanor.
But as Gui Yunzheng analyzed, under his peaceful appearance, he is absolutely unpredictable.
As soon as the five people entered Xiangyang City, they were actually targeted by several people. It's just that people in Xiangyang City were coming and going, and among the noise, a few people were very talented and bold, so they didn't take it seriously.
One of these places is the secret sentry under King Ping. These people are directly under the jurisdiction of Prince Ping's Mansion and are responsible for collecting information about suspicious persons entering Xiangyang. At the same time, they also do some dirty work.
However, they could also see that Xu Lang and others were highly skilled in martial arts, so they were smart enough to stay far away and change people to follow them from time to time. This kind of tracking method is indeed difficult to detect. However, even though I couldn't follow them, I couldn't hear clearly what they were saying. After all, Gui Xiaomin and Lin Yin'er were behind them, and Wei Dai was on guard.
At the same time, several people showed unusual behavior and quickly reported to Prince Ping's mansion.
"Your Majesty, these five people seem to have come from the south of the Yangtze River. They all carry swords and have extraordinary aura. It is expected that they are all students from famous families."
One of his subordinates was lying on the ground, reporting to King Ping.
"The person who came here is not a good person. Your Majesty, you know that there are several young people who have appeared in the world recently. They are very impressive!"
Prince Ping said nothing. He always cherished words like gold. A middle-aged man in a jade-faced gown beside him expressed his opinion.
"Oh, Mr. Wan, tell me!"
King Ping became interested when he heard that there was something in this middle-aged man's words.
This Mr. Wan was Wan Feitong of the Eagle Claw Sect who disappeared in the martial arts competition. The father and his son were secretly hiding in a farmhouse's woodshed, waiting for the heroes and soldiers to fight outside, before finding another way out of Tai'an. Neither father nor son were loyal to the person involved. They thought that Xingyue Dao might be gone, and if he continued to follow them, he would probably die. Finally, Wan Feitong remembered that he had an old relationship with Prince Ping, that he had been employed by Prince Ping's mansion, and had taught Prince Ping's son martial arts, so he decided to go to Xiangyang to join Prince Ping. Prince Ping, on the one hand, was thinking about some old feelings, and on the other hand, it was the time when talents were needed, so he was naturally happy to accept them. Wan Feitong and his son were also clever and quickly gained Prince Ping's trust and became his confidants.
"Your Majesty, let Xiao Qing say this, he knows much better than me!"
Wan Feitong naturally wanted to create opportunities for his son, so he brought up the topic, but asked Wan Xiaoqing to take it up.
Prince Ping smiled slightly and nodded. He knew what Wan Feitong meant, but he didn't take it seriously. It's human nature!
Wan Xiaoqing quickly stood up from the side and bowed to the prince.
"Your Majesty, this matter is a bit long to say, so let me choose what I want to say!"
Then, Wan Xiaoqing told King Ping one by one what he knew and what he learned from Xingyue Dao about Xu Lang and Gui Yunzheng. He didn't know Gui Yunzheng's identity. He only said that he was the little prince of Prince Jing's palace and the adopted son of Taoist Xingyue.
"Oh, so Gui Yunzheng, Xu Lang, and Lin Zhijing are all really great people?"
After hearing what Wan Xiaoqing said, Prince Ping was slightly shocked, but also became interested.
"My lord, if your subordinates want to inspire others, you must have heard about Gui Yunzheng leading the heroes out of the Northland, right? Moreover, I heard that he is still the current leader of the Beggar Clan."
Wan Xiaoqing added something more.
Prince Ping naturally knows this information, and he also has his own eyes, ears and channels to collect information from the world.
"So, these people are going to meet for a while."
Prince Ping stroked his beard and fell into deep thought.
"Your Majesty, as for whether these people are Gui Yunzheng and the others, we will know at a glance when my subordinates go there!"
Wan Xiaoqing was eager to make contributions and immediately took the initiative to ask for help.
"Okay, I agree!"
Prince Ping expressed his stance with authority, and Wan Xiaoqing quickly resigned.
