Chapter 22: The Prince

In the splendid palace, Lin Xiaoxian, who was dressed in a purple and green auspicious cloud robe, had his back to several confidants and ministers who were extremely important to him, and they had disputes on some issues. Lin Xiaoxian has never been a stubborn king, but today he is unwilling to listen to their advice. Qin Yu, who was in the position of prime minister, stood aside and did not speak, from the beginning of today's court meeting, he did not say a word, everyone thought that the prime minister seemed to be on the side of the king, and they all excluded this silent prime minister. Of course, this doesn't happen very often, so why is this happening? It has to start with a quote from the high priest today. The high priest divined that their human race needs to elect a capable prince a few days ago, and now they need to elect a capable prince to assist the king in handling political affairs, even the demon clan already has a prince, how can their human race lag behind the demon race. Although the king is in the prime of life, it is the foundation of the country to set up the prince early.

Lin Xiaoxian was stunned and ignored their recital, and also said a few perfunctory words to the high priest. As soon as the court meeting ended, several of his confidant ministers pulled Prime Minister Qin to meet him privately. The ministers persuaded him to set up the prince early, and they should rest easy, the demons are eyeing the border, although there are people and demons, but after all, they are demons, they are a group of bloodthirsty monsters, how can they count. If there is a war one day, then the prince will lead them to defend the kingdom, and the king will sit in the royal city, wouldn't there be no worries. In other words, even if there is no demon race, the prince will be established early, although the king is said to have a thin heir, but after all, the two princes are dragons among people, and any one of them can be regarded as the wisdom and courage of one person to ten thousand people. If one of the brothers who joined forces like this could not be chosen first, then later... If there is an emergency, the Terrans may have a bloody storm. The person who suggested this file was an old courtier, who had served two generations of kings, and with his qualifications, he naturally wanted to stand at the head to speak, and he also thought that the current king must give him a little thin face. As soon as these words came out, Lin Xiaoxian turned his back to them directly, turned his face and didn't say a word.

Qin Yu is an extremely smart person, he can sit in the position of prime minister, and he must also be a person who can see the situation clearly. How could he not know the reason why the king was displeased, when is it now, it can be said to be the strongest period in the history of the human race, let the crown prince now, where do you put the king's self-esteem, and what kind of character are the two highnesses Lin Zhi and Lin Ye, who can fight for a throne? Hmph, you are blind. It's really a group of pedantic people who listen to the wind and the rain. He definitely won't be on the side of you people who don't have the ability to see...

Seeing that the king didn't pay attention to their intentions at all, everyone had no choice but to retire one by one. At this moment, Lin Xiaoxian opened his mouth and said: "The prime minister left a narrative. Qin Yu nodded yes, and closed the door of the hall with interest.

"Tell me, tell me, how did this group of old people obey the divination of the high priest so much, a few days ago, the heart cultivation didn't just have an accident, this began to deceive people's hearts again, what is the divination to choose the prince, this selection of the prince also needs divination?" Seeing the door of the palace closed, Lin Xiaoxian began to chatter at Qin Yu, he held his sullen breath all morning, but he could only vent his anger in front of his old friends and brothers.

Qin Yu could see it, and comforted him repeatedly: "The more anxious you are with them, the more they feel that they can discuss with you, and then give this matter by the way, which is not what you are used to." Qin Yu dared to say this, Lin Xiaoxian took a fancy to him, pretending to be a dog in front of people, and put on a pair of pants with him behind his back. The two of them have been acting together in the court over the years, in order to consolidate Lin Xiaoxian's royal power. Of course, the two of them have been together since childhood, and they are not brothers but brothers, and of course they also have a lifelong friendship.

"Hey, if this king hadn't seen that they were the courtiers left by the previous king, he would have wanted to invite them back to live for the rest of his life. Lin Xiaoxian stroked his forehead helplessly, he had somehow felt uncomfortable in the past few days, and his head was buzzing intermittently.

Seeing that he was a little strange, Qin Yu hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, where are you uncomfortable?"

Lin Xiaoxian waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, I guess it's for them." Let's not talk about this for a while, a few days ago, I wrote a letter to Lin Ye, can you guess what is written in the letter. ”

"Then what else can there be," Qin Yu and Qin Keke are really father and daughter, and they both look at the father and daughter of Xinxiu unpleasantly. "It is no exaggeration to say that the whole royal city knows that she, the holy daughter, is obsessed with the Second Highness and has deep affection. ”

"As far as you are smart, as far as your ability is concerned, you have said it. Lin Xiaoxian said with a smile, "This king must not have imagined that the holy woman he adopted would be so unproductive and reluctant to give up on the private feelings of his children, how he would be able to take on a great responsibility in the future." Hey, Lin Ye's heart is probably only the mysterious Mo Caicai girl now. ”

"You left me behind to discuss these little loves?"

"Don't worry, wait for the king to finish speaking. You are a virtuous man with your daughter. Lin Xiaoxian patted Qin Yu on the shoulder and motioned to follow him to the inner room, Qin Yu looked at him and then looked at the inner room, "Your Majesty, you still want to show your unspeakable secrets to the lower officials?"

"Less poor mouth, keep up. ”

"Hehe, obey. ”

With a rare smile on the corner of Qin Yu's mouth, he followed Lin Xiaoxian to the inner room, "What?!" he covered his mouth in surprise, trying not to make a scream that came out of his throat. What shocked him so much was nothing else, it was a tiny egg. This egg looks very ordinary, not much bigger than a goose egg, and even a little yellow, but Qin Yu knows such an egg. In order to make sure that he was not mistaken, he bowed forward and looked at it carefully. Lin Xiaoxian didn't care if he knew it or not, it took him a long, long time to get his hands on this egg, and the reason why he wanted to show Qin Yu such a precious thing was not because this egg had the possibility of breaking through, he was afraid that he would not be able to solve the situation after breaking the egg alone. Qin Yu deserved to be the prime minister, and after he observed, he dared to determine what this was.

"Your Majesty, is this a dragon egg?" Although Qin Yu knew the answer, he still asked.

Lin Xiaoxian nodded, "That's right, this king was deceived from the Demon Lord." ”

Such a direct answer shocked Qin Yu again, "My king is really direct."

"It's a long story, and it was more than 20 years ago. The king thought that this egg was fake, that the demon lord had deceived the king, but recently, this egg began to move every noon, and the king felt that it was going to hatch. Qin Yu, this king is also very worried, you want to say that the dragon clan is an ancient god clan, we all know the existence from ancient books, Mo Caicai's appearance confirmed that the dragon clan is really in a certain place, this king's dragon egg is also very likely to be a dragon egg of genuine value. This king this.. This...."

Lin Xiaoxian wanted to speak and stopped, he didn't know what would happen next, since he got this egg, he was thinking about the dragon egg hatching and thinking that it wasn't a dragon egg, so forget it, can their human race raise a real dragon...

"Your Majesty, I understand your concerns, I'm afraid this is not something we can control, I'm wondering if we have to recall Miss Mo, after all, she is a person who has been to the dragon realm, and the one named Yuan Huan, if they are not there, what should we do with this dragon egg that is about to hatch." Your Majesty, what do you say?" Qin Yu's thoughts were not unreasonable, Lin Xiaoxian thought about it and nodded, "You're right, I'll send someone to recall a few of them back to the royal city tomorrow." ”

"No, Your Majesty, let His Highness and the little girl patrol outside, and send a few more people to protect them. ”

"It's okay, state affairs can't be wrong, so let's arrange it like this. Lin Xiaoxian agreed to Qin Yu's proposal, he turned his head to look at the dragon egg on the table, and frowned, "Qin Yu, this king should put this egg in the ice cellar first, the weather has been hot for the past two days, don't wait for them to come back, it will run out by itself." ”

"This... This.. In case it freezes, then.." The Prime Minister, who had never stammered, didn't know how to speak at this time, and there were many breeds of livestock he had raised so far, but this was a dragon, which made him a mortal, how to raise it.

"Hey, how did this king get this thing back then?"

Looking at Lin Xiaoxian's seemingly distressed appearance, Qin Yu secretly pouted, "Don't you just like to get along with the Demon Lord, you will grab what he has, who knows that you are much more insidious than the famous Demon Lord..'

Lin Xiaoxian glanced at the dragon egg again, and made a ruthless decision, "Qin Yu, this king will put this dragon egg into Lin Zhi's ice lake first." ”

"Very good, very good. Qin Yu nodded in agreement without thinking. Originally, he didn't understand this, and there were many mistakes, and if something went wrong, it was none of his business. Lin Zhi's ice lake is actually not bad, and with the blessing of spiritual power, it will naturally not hurt the dragon egg body.

"Come on, take a look at it again with this king, don't you think it looks very good?" Lin Xiaoxian pulled Qin Yu as if offering a treasure and let him look at it twice. Qin Yu is respectful as obedient, and he stepped forward to take a serious look, why did he recognize this as a dragon egg, mainly because he likes to read ancient books on weekdays, and it is recorded in ancient books that the dragon egg itself is glowing with gold and silver luster, and the egg body is attached to the auspicious dragon-like pattern, and the volume is different from the size of the goose egg. In fact, I don't know if this egg has been in the human race for too long, the egg body is no longer golden, and even a little yellow, and the pattern is really not so obvious, and it can only be faintly seen if it is very close. But this is enough to prove that this egg is really not an ordinary egg. After looking at each other for a while, the two stood up in unison, looked at each other, and made the same "shhh Then the two met and smiled, the tacit understanding of so many years is really not bragging. As for how he got this egg, Lin Xiaoxian attached it to Qin Yu's ear and roughly explained it in a voice that only the two of them could hear. Qin Yu's face was a little bad after hearing this, and when he looked at Lin Xiaoxian again, there was a trace of disgust in his eyes. Lin Xiaoxian shook his arm, "Qin Yu, let's do it today, you go back." ”

"Yes. Qin Yu lowered his head and bowed to Lin Xiaoxian, and then withdrew.

Lin Xiaoxian looked at Qin Yu's departing back funny, he looked back at the dragon egg again, and with a wave of his hands, the dragon egg had disappeared into the inner room.
