Xu Ling didn't dare to say anything until Zhou Xuan suddenly said: "Let's continue to Prince Lu's Mansion."
Xu Ling breathed a sigh of relief and thought for a moment: "Sir, how much do you know about King Lu?"
Zhou Xuan glanced at him lightly: "I don't know much about King Lu, and there is very little news about him. Why, do you know anything about him?"
"I can't call him understanding, but I have indeed met King Lu several times. My classmates and friends have also been in contact with King Lu and mentioned this prince to me."
Xu Ling told everything he knew about King Lu.
"This King of Lu is usually very low-key. He usually only interacts with officials during court meetings. He usually lives by himself in the courtyard of his residence. He rarely even holds banquets. Although he also forms a party, most of the party members get together naturally. , it feels very low-key.”
"But to say that he really has no intention of seizing the heir, I don't think so. It's just that the two kings of Qi and Shu are powerful, and this King of Lu doesn't want to be involved in the fight between the two kings."
The half-demon's introduction made Zhou Xuan sketch an image in his mind before he saw King Lu. When he arrived at King Lu's place, the ox cart circled around the palace, looking at the aura hovering over Prince Lu's palace, Zhou Xuan A subtle feeling arose again.
"The nobility of Prince Lu's palace is weaker than that of King Qi and King Shu. This is not surprising, but it makes me feel a little strange. It seems that I have to look at myself."
Thinking of this, he said to Xu Ling: "Is there any way you can let me meet King Lu?"
Xu Ling thought for a while and really thought of a chance encounter: "King Lu will take his wife and children to stay in another courtyard every once in a while. It is difficult to enter the palace. If he is in the other courtyard now, there is a chance to meet him. .”
Since he had already seen three people and only one King Lu was left, Zhou Xuan let Xu Ling lead the way and sent the ox cart to King Lu's other courtyard.
This villa is also built in the city, but it is next to the lake. The mansion stands beside the lake with carved beams and painted columns. It has a Jiangnan atmosphere in its nobility.
"What a coincidence, King Lu is really in the other courtyard." The demon got off the bullock cart and came back after a while. After getting on the cart, he reported back to Zhou Xuan.
"I used some methods and got the news about him now. King Lu is fishing by the lake as usual. If the ox cart goes forward for a while, you can see King Lu by walking around the lake."
Meeting King Lu went smoothly, but think about it, even if King Lu is also a prince, there are two kings of Qi and Shu shining brightly above him, and there is also Duke Dai who has the same strong presence below, and he is a low-key prince. King Lu would not encounter any danger while wandering on the street by himself, and fishing by the lake was no big deal.
The bullock cart slowly passed by the lake. Zhou Xuan did not get off the car, but opened the curtain and looked at several people in the distance. Except for King Lu who was sitting facing the lake, the remaining few were all bodyguards and servants. .
"The aura of King Lu is so strange." I thought it would be surprising to see a Duke Dai who seemed both strong and weak at the same time, but I didn't expect that the aura of King Lu was similar to Duke Dai. .
"The most important thing is that it gives me a wonderful feeling, as if there is a fate between me and King Lu." This connection seems to be very strong, but also seems to be very weak.
Zhou Xuan frowned and looked at it, thinking: "If I can have good luck, I have to help Longting, but the dragon spirit is the most unique. In fact, in the past dynasties, people in Fulongting, whether they are monsters or humans, have rarely had good results."
"Although I haven't completely made up my mind, it is more refreshing to take the path of bad luck, and it is more in line with my demon way - the weak eat the strong. The king-slayer chooses one, and after swallowing the king's energy, he can become a golden crow."
"Demon King, Demon King, how can he succeed without the aura of a king?
"But if there is a bad fate, the destiny of King Qi and King Shu is already fierce. Even I have the seal of the Dragon Lord, which makes me secretly scared. If I choose these two people, I will die nine times out of ten."
"But Duke Dai and King Lu are much less noble and unstable, so they may be suitable targets."
"But to become a demon king, you also have to look at potential. You have to choose someone who is weak now but will be weak in the future, and who has great potential. Duke Dai and King Lu are my goals."
"No matter who it is, killing them directly is an idiot. If you want to take refuge in a certain prince, and use the prince's hand to suppress it, this can avoid a large part of the backlash - then who should I turn to?"
No matter who he chooses, the one he targets is both his destined person and his enemy.
Looking at it this way, whether you choose Dai Guogong or King Lu as your target, or cooperate with King Qi or King Shu, you can improve your efficiency.
Among the two kings, the King of Shu is relatively weak, while the King of Qi is strong and is related to the demon clan. Thinking about it this way, he can be chosen as a partner.
There is no need for Fulongting, just borrowing strength to fight.
Zhou Xuan was thoughtful and said to the half-demon: "I want a communication channel with King Qi. You can send it over immediately."
"This..." Xu Ling was a little hesitant. He was not a half-demon from Zhou Xuan's faction, but when he looked up, he saw Zhou Xuan's dark eyes and a half-smiling expression. He was startled, and cold sweat broke out from his back.
A little half-demon like him had no room to refuse, so he quickly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty, what about the little one going to do it now?"
"Go." Zhou Xuan nodded and asked the cart to stop.
The half-demon got off the bullock cart and thought about it for a moment. He didn't plan to go back to Qingyuan Temple immediately, so he asked the driver to drive the bullock cart and pull him around the city.
At this time, spring is in full swing, and pedestrians on the street are wearing thin clothes. There are men and women. Young people chatting and laughing in twos and threes while walking, which makes them look more alive.
Zhou Xuan looked at it with great interest and felt that it was worthy of being a capital city. At the feet of the emperor, in terms of prosperity, few cities could compare. Although it did not have the charm of Jiangnan, it was magnificent and magnificent. It seemed that even the streets were wider.
At another place, Su Ziji accompanied Ye Buhui to see the silk and satin, and the two of them took an ox cart back.
On the way, seeing Su Ziji lost in thought, Ye Buhui was a little curious. When Su Ziji came back to his senses, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." Su Ziji said, "I just saw a person and thought he looked kind, but I didn't recognize him, so I was thinking about whether I had seen him before."
Ye Buhui exclaimed: "Maybe he just looks kind-hearted. I can't remember it because of my husband's memory. I'm afraid I've never seen him before."
Su Ziji actually felt that he had never seen that "person", but the person's appearance and strange appearance, combined with Su Ziji's uneasiness, always felt that the two might be connected.
But it was hard to tell Ye Buhui these words. Fortunately, Ye Buhui didn't ask any questions. After returning to the house, Su Ziji was waiting for the wild Taoist to come back in the study.
The wild Taoist who was sent to search for information about people coming to Beijing came back with a stick of incense. As soon as he entered the study, he said hurriedly to Su Ziji: "My lord, there really is such a person!"
With that said, he unfolded a rolled up paper in front of Su Ziji, which turned out to be a small portrait.
The person who painted this small portrait has average painting skills and no soul, but he can still draw the basic appearance. He is a scholar who looks a little graceful. He has a handsome appearance and an expression on his face that is not smiling. Not to mention, although this kind of painting There is generally little art, but it is easy to spot.
As soon as Su Ziji looked at the small portrait, he immediately remembered the person he saw at the entrance of the silk and satin shop.
