Emperor Xuan is leaving the palace! ?
All the ministers in the Xuanjun Hall were panicked. They didn't know what Emperor Xuan was thinking, but they didn't dare to ask. Finally, King Liao stepped forward. After Emperor Xuan gave him a few instructions, King Liao nodded and left.
What did you say?
Of course you can hear it if you use the power of soul. But who in this Xuan Army Hall dares to use the power of soul to sense Emperor Xuan? That would be regarded as treason and assassination just like bringing a knife into the palace.
The ministers waited silently, just to see if Emperor Xuan had any other instructions, but they saw Emperor Xuan wave his hand towards them and said calmly: "Let's all disperse."
All gone?
Nothing to do with them?
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, but they could only retreat silently.
…
…
In the empty Xuanjun City, Lu Ping led Su Tang towards the direction pointed by Ji Guang. He could sense that there were people watching them from far away. He thought he was a spy from the Xuan Army, but he didn't care about it. He was more concerned about Su Tang's current situation.
"How are you?" he asked Su Tang. Su Tang was tortured so much that his physical condition was already bad. Gang tried his best to break free from the soul lock and received two arrows from Ji Guang. After meeting Lu Ping, he gritted his teeth and held on with willpower. Now that he was out of danger, he finally couldn't hold on anymore, and his steps became increasingly slippery and weak.
"A little tired." Su Tang didn't hold on in front of the road surface, so he said whatever he wanted.
"I'll carry you." Lu Ping bent down.
"Yeah." Su Tang lay on Lu Ping's back, just like he did when they escaped from the organization four years ago.
But that time, Lu Ping was at the end of his strength and just gritted his teeth and persisted. This time, he was in good condition and felt much more at ease than before.
After walking for a while with Su Tang on his back, Lu Ping suddenly heard the sound of water and couldn't help but think of the Xiongjiang River that ran through the north and south of Xuanjun City when he stood on the city wall.
"It's better to take a boat," he said.
"You can't walk anymore?" Su Tang asked.
"No, if you take a boat, just follow the water and go out. Mo Lin and the others are right over there." Lu Ping said. All he wanted was to save himself some trouble.
"Oh, Mo Lin is here too." Su Tang said.
"There is also Ling Ziyan, Senior Brother Fang." Lu Ping said.
"Senior Brother Fang?" Su Tang heard a strange name.
"Yes, senior brother Fang Yizhu who was born in Zhaifeng and entered Beidou College." Lu Ping said.
"Oh!" Su Tang is much more familiar with Zhaifeng Academy than Lu Ping. Fang Yizhu, whose name is also Lu Ping, or someone like Mo Lin who didn't pay attention to it just a few days after entering Zhaofeng Academy. In Zhaifeng College, this is one of the four most talked about students. On the right wall of the lobby on the first floor of Zhaifeng Building, he has been hung as an outstanding graduate representative for many years.
Then Lu Ping talked about what he encountered at Beidou College while listening to the sound of water and came to the edge of the Xiongjiang River.
The river is vast, but the entire city is currently under strict restrictions. Even on this majestic river, there is not a single big ship. Lu Ping glanced around and quickly found the boat docked by the river.
"Can you do it?" Su Tang, who was put on the boat and sat firmly, couldn't help but asked when he saw Lu Ping clumsily untying the rope and shaking the oar.
"Of course not." Lu Ping answered naturally without any shame.
After untying the rope tied to the river, the boat began to float with the waves towards the center of the river, spinning slowly all the way. Lu Ping stood at the back of the boat, but he couldn't paddle at all, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"It's okay to float like this." Su Tang said.
So Lu Ping gave up, but regardless of this, without avoiding the whirlpool or the waves, the boat drifting on the Xiongjiang River was full of situations. It was ups and downs, spinning and swaying, everything was fine except that it didn't turn over directly. After a few waves, the two looked at each other wet and speechless, but in the end they laughed together.
No matter what, the two are finally together again, and nothing is more important than this.
The boat went down the river faster and faster. The two of them seemed to have forgotten their current situation and regarded it as a game. Just after they passed another whirlpool, and when both of them were feeling dizzy, Lu Ping suddenly looked stern, and he flashed to Su Tang's side.
Su Tang turned around and looked along the road. He saw a person standing on a bridge across the river in front of him, looking at the lonely boat in the river. When he saw the two people looking at it, he put on a smiling face. , cupping his fists and arching towards the two of them.
The two were at a loss, not knowing whether they were enemies or friends. Lu Ping carefully felt the sound of the other party's soul power, but did not hear any aggressive rhythm. Then I saw this man taking a step towards the direction and actually stepped directly off the bridge.
This figure fell very slowly and gently. The man opened his arms and looked open-minded, as if to show that he was not hostile.
The voice of Po Zhili that Lu Ping heard did not show any aggression, but he still did not relax at all and protected Su Tang behind him.
The man descended slowly and finally reached the river. He had been paying attention to the expressions of Lu Ping and Su Tang. At this time, he clasped his fists and said with a smile: "You two, I have no hostility." As he said, his body floated forward, but he happened to land on the tip of the boat. With just a tap of his feet, he stood firmly without any impact on the boat.
"What's the matter?" Lu Ping asked. If the other party is not hostile, there must be a reason for coming.
"I'm Gu Qichao." The other party introduced himself.
Of course Lu Ping didn't know the name, but the character saw Su Tang's expression change slightly.
"King Liao?" Su Tang said.
"Don't dare." King Liao Gu Qichao came up and announced his name like an ordinary person. It seemed very ordinary, but for his status, this attitude was to let the other party understand that he now treated the two of them equally. Great humility. They only need to know the identity of King Liao in their own minds.
It's a pity that in front of the road surface is the name Liao Wang, and he doesn't know which one it is. He looked at Su Tang doubtfully, as if he was surprised that Su Tang could recognize him.
"King Liao is the half-brother of Emperor Xuan, and he has a very high status." Su Tang had no choice but to briefly explain to Lu Ping.
"Yes." Lu Ping responded, showing no emotion at all for the name of the Xuanjun Empire, which was ranked among the most powerful among the people.
King Liao saw this and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. By lowering his status, he was quite polite and polite to the corporal, but if the other party had no sense of his status, he would not be able to appreciate this respect, so his behavior was in vain. Some of the words I prepared in advance were useless, so I just got straight to the point.
"Well... Emperor Xuan is at the tea pavilion ahead, and I would like to invite you two to come over and have a chat." King Liao said. He knew his purpose very well, but he still felt extremely awkward when he actually said these words. This is so dignified and dignified. How can there be any "please" in speaking to others? They are all "edicts". But now Emperor Xuan not only walked out of Xuanhua Palace in person, but also arrived at the mouth of the river where the other party was going to pass to wait in advance. He also sent the highest-ranking Liao Wang besides him to invite him. Such high courtesy, in King Liao's memory, has never happened before when the four deans and five soul masters visited Xuanjun City. But today, because Emperor Lu Pingxuan had achieved this, King Liao didn't even dare to think about what kind of grievance and anger he was suppressing in his heart. All he knew was that the people he invited were all worried about Emperor Xuan.
As a result, Lu Ping's expression remained unchanged and his tone was still as calm as before.
"Thank you Emperor Xuan." He said, "But forget it, we have other things to do."
