At night, the East Palace's bedroom was as dark and silent as ever. A slender figure wearing a fiery red robe embroidered with gold dragon patterns slowly descended from the sky like a fallen leaf, lying softly on the soft golden couch.
With his eyes closed, one hand was slightly bent against the monster's face, and the other hand slowly started to beat. Next to him, the two palace maids who had been waiting for a long time lowered their eyes, and walked forward lightly and quickly to take off his clothes for him. Boots.
Not long after, the second prince Luo Cheng, who had earlier received the imperial brother's departure, hurried over. Through the gauze curtain, he bowed deeply and congratulated: "Congratulations to the imperial brother for coming out of isolation. I couldn't greet you in person." Brother Huang has come out of confinement, please forgive me."
"嘚嘚嘚...嘚嘚嘚..."
On the golden couch, Crown Prince Luo Yan seemed to be turning a deaf ear, his slender white fingers tapping the armrests of the golden couch rhythmically.
Time passed slowly in silence, and the rhythmic sound of this tapping gradually echoed throughout the entire hall. Finally, with each drop of Luo Yan's fingers, streaks of blood-red light rippled out. Come, brush aside the two maids, lift up the gauze curtain, and sweep across the second prince Luo Cheng.
At this moment, Luo Cheng's whole body was soaked in cold sweat, and his chest felt extremely oppressive, as if it was being pressed by a heart of tens of thousands of pounds of stone, and there was an illusion that his heart might burst at any time.
His life and death were under the control of the imperial brother from beginning to end. With just one thought, perhaps he would no longer exist in this world. Luo Cheng had always known this, but this time he felt it for himself.
"Hey!"
When he lowered his finger for the last time, the blood-red halo disappeared. Luo Cheng breathed heavily, but still did not dare to stand up. However, before he could catch his breath, the next words made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar. .
"You did very well."
Blood light burst out from his slightly opened eyes. Luo Yan indifferently praised Luo Cheng for mediating for him during this time.
However, this praise sounded like a thunderbolt from the blue to Luocheng. Dangzhi knelt down, his forehead hit the hard stone slab with a 'thud', and said tremblingly: "Without the permission of the emperor brother, please come back." For the sake of the emperor’s dedication, the emperor’s brother spared the emperor’s brother’s life!”
A prince who does not know how to practice cultivation, and who has been spurned and discussed behind his back by the emperor of the Gale Kingdom, the palace maids and guards, and even the servants of some ministers’ families for the past twenty years, has been able to become the emperor of the emperor for more than half of the past year. , Prince, how much wisdom and mind is needed to strategize and mediate between the two countries Dafeng and Dayuan!
If this prince can practice cultivation and has good talents, he will definitely become a strong contender for the position of prince and even the position of emperor in the future. Just imagine, who would allow such a person to stay by his side?
Fortunately, he does not know how to practice Buddhism, which is why he is alive today.
Therefore, at that moment, Luo Cheng understood that in the past six months, it seemed that he had done everything for the emperor's brother, but he had unknowingly made a huge mistake and completely pushed himself into the eyes of the prince.
Thinking back to the past twenty years, how had he ever behaved like this? Now, if there is no motive for all these actions, who can believe it?
That praise is not a praise, it is a life-threatening sickle!
"Tick tock...tick tock...tick tock..."
The face pressed against the stone slab was filled with endless regrets, and the sound of Dou Da's cold sweat falling to the ground drop by drop was so clear and audible, echoing in the hall like the music of the God of Death demanding life.
Sighing in his heart, Luo Cheng understood that if he had not done those things, he would definitely have angered the prince, but it would only prove that he was incompetent and the prince would never kill him.
"Let's go see the Second Emperor's uncle."
After a long time, Luo Yan slowly closed his eyes, waved his hand casually, stopped talking, and fell into his own world.
"Thank you, Brother Emperor! Thank you, Brother Emperor! Thank you, Brother Emperor!"
In the main hall, Luo Cheng had no time to rejoice in his survival, so he knelt down and exited the main hall.
After leaving the main hall, Luo Cheng quickly left the East Palace, and then violently retched at a corner of the palace wall. It took him half a stick of incense to regain consciousness.
Looking back in the direction of the East Palace, the fear in his heart still hadn't dissipated. He smiled bitterly and thought to himself: "Am I just trying to compete with such a monster... In this world, strength still has to speak for itself."
Shaking his head slightly, Luo Cheng took a deep breath, and then went straight to his courtyard. As for the Second Emperor's Uncle, he really didn't dare to go there again!
The prince's words are already clear. He wants him to follow the example of his second uncle. If he wants to live, he can only live like his second uncle. Otherwise, even if he is a prince who does not know how to practice, even if he is his brother-in-law, The only outcome is death.
…
Early the next morning, from Luoshui City between the Imperial Capital and Hero Pass, a flying boat with the words 'Glazed Wanbao Tower' engraved on it slowly took off and flew into the distance.
There are still three months left before the Yunxue Requiem Fruit King matures. During these three months, the Liuli Wanbao Tower branch of Luoshui City will go to villages such as Hongdou Village that exist in various deep mountains and old forests to collect treasures. To prepare for the auction three months later, the last half of the month was spent heading to Hongdou Village.
In the flying boat, the building owner Shen Fang and the deputy building owner Shen Qiang sat opposite each other, holding pieces and playing chess, drinking tea and talking briefly...
After a moment, a trace of pride appeared on Shen Qiang's slightly broad cheeks, and he said: "Brother, what do you think of the current situation?"
"Can't fight..."
Dropping a piece at random, instantly disintegrating Bai Zi's offensive, Shen Fang raised the corner of his mouth with a slight smile and said: "Nearly sixteen years ago, Dafeng and Dafeng formed an alliance because of Luo Chenfeng and Lie Ruting's marriage. Now, Prince Dafeng She has great favor for Lie Binglan. Based on this alone, as long as Lie Binglan doesn't do too much, the battle will not be fought.
Secondly, Luo Lintian poisoned Lie Ruting and his unborn son Luo Fan, forcing Luo Chenfeng to give up his position as the prince. Only then did Luo Lintian become the current Lord of Gale. If Luolin Tianneng was doomed back then, If Lie Ruting, who was poisoned to death, was returned to Da Fengguo, there would not be today's battle. Even if it was the pain of losing a son, Da Fengguo would not cause the two countries to fight for Lie Ruting.
Now Lie Binglan is stationed five hundred miles away from the Hero Pass. The only reason is that Lie Ruting is not dead yet, and all Da Feng wants is for the Luo royal family to release Lie Ruting.
Let's see how Lorraine Tianhui decides.
Thirdly, in my opinion, Luo Lintian would not let Lie Ruting go. If he let Lie Ruting go, the war might still start. Who allowed Lie Binglan to break through...
Don't let it go. With this trump card in hand, Gale Kingdom will not be in danger. Gale Kingdom has not increased its troops at the border gates. Even Tianfeng Pass and Wufeng Pass have been lost one after another. The two routes have lost more than ten cities in total. Gale still does not do anything. Being moved also showed his attitude and gave Da Fengguo some explanation.
But the real reason is still because of Luo Chenfeng.
When Luo Chenfeng bloodbathed the imperial capital, he single-handedly slaughtered 300,000 Imperial Imperial Guards with his bloodline vision "Wind and Thunder Arrow Prison". That battle could be said to be a real river of blood, staining the imperial capital with blood, and it was even more direct. This resulted in a shortage of military strength in Gale Country for nearly sixteen years.
Fourth, it is precisely because the warriors with bloodline visions are so terrifying that this battle will eventually turn into a battle between warriors. It depends on whether anyone in the Gale Kingdom can suppress Lie Binglan. It is impossible to say whether the old emperor Luo Haotian has to come forward.
As for the sects behind both sides, they are also trying to contain each other. I don't know how the Fenglei Sect, which owes Luo Chenfeng, will make a decision.
Of course, in my opinion, Fenglei Sect could choose to give up on Luo Chenfeng sixteen years ago. How could Fenglei Sect show up again sixteen years later?
It is very likely that Fenglei Sect will choose to pretend to be deaf and dumb in this incident, unless things go too far and will affect the reputation of Fenglei Sect. At that time, Fenglei Sect will have to come forward and say a word or two, otherwise, It's really so chilling.
In the end, it was because of the relationship between Lie Binglan and Luo Yingxiong. Many young talents from major sects and aristocratic families admired Lie Binglan, but this proud girl only fell in love with Luo Yingxiong. Luo Yingxiong had never spoken because of family matters. It’s really a lot of cutting and chaos…”
Looking at the chessboard, it was already a dead end. Shen Qiang smiled bitterly: "Brother can see clearly."
"Haha..." With a laugh, Shen Fang stood up and walked to the window, looking at the clouds and clouds outside, and said proudly: "Everyone knows that Wuying Pavilion has unique intelligence capabilities, and Liuli Wanbao Tower has the world's wealth.
But who knows that the intelligence capability of my Glazed Wanbao Tower is not weaker than that of Wuying Pavilion, and similarly, the wealth of Wuying Pavilion is not weaker than that of my Wanbao Tower. "
After a pause, Shen Fang said with doubt in his eyes: "But so far, I still haven't figured out why the Qianyuan Sect supported Luo Lintian and forced Luo Haotian to give up Da Feng's favored son Luo Chenfeng. I haven't blamed Luo Lintian yet.
Now, the Qianyuan Sect is even more willing to send an elder to the Tomb of Ten Thousand Corpses to search for the Dragon Blood Vine for the prince, so much so that the old man's soul has been corroded by the poison of the Corpse Blood Evil, and he has been in a state of heroism. "
Passing a cup of fragrant tea, Shen Qiang said: "Then what do you think the reason might be?"
After pondering for a moment, Shen Fang still shook his head and said: "I really can't think of anything in this world of mortals that can attract the Qianyuan Sect. Even the Lingshi Mine is not enough to make the Qianyuan Sect and Fenglei Sect turn against each other.
However, to tell you the truth, this incident between Dafeng and Dafeng always makes me feel that it is not as simple as I saw. Moreover, at several auctions, the prince of Dafeng always gave me a very dangerous feeling. , if there is anyone in the Dafeng royal family that I cannot see through, it is only the prince! "
Holding his chin, Shen Qiang pondered for a while and said: "Brother's feelings are never wrong. When the auction is over, I will arrange for someone to explore his background?"
"No need." He stretched out his hand to stop Shen Qiang, and Shen Fang frowned and said: "If I have a good feeling for the prince, no matter how many people go there, they will die and they won't be able to bring back the news. I will take a closer look at this auction. "
"Just do as big brother says." Nodding, Shen Qiang glanced at the direction of the chessboard and said, "Let's play another game?"
"Come on, these three months will kill you so much that you won't want to play chess from now on."
"Hey! Who is afraid of whom!"
