Chapter 65: The Storm is Coming
The lotus heart is built in the back, the place of cultivation, and the soul lotus in the whole pond in front of it ripples with this lilac light, and the buds are waiting to be released, and the aura is magnificent, which can be regarded as a natural spirit gathering array.
Lin Xi's eyes condensed slightly, the soul lotus, the lotus seed is the treasure that improves the level of the martial soul Dao, but looking at the green appearance of these soul lotus, he will not be able to use it in ten years.
Thinking about it, Emperor Qingyun didn't want others to say that he was stingy, and he didn't want Lin Xi to really improve the level of martial souls, so he could only do this.
There is also an open space in the small building for Lin Xi to practice martial arts and Taoism.
On the left side of the mansion are mostly study rooms and the like, and on the right side are for the housekeepers to live, and the dining room and clothes room are also here.
The mansion occupies a large area, there are more than 100 rooms, Lin Xi knows that the position of patrol envoy has the same privileges as the state city lord, he can raise 300 Ding Keqing, and he can also develop the power between the states, but he must report to the emperor and record it.
This followed Lin Xi's wish.
Emperor Qingyun is also knowledgeable, knowing that Lin Xi will not use his people, and a squire butler is not left, but it makes people feel that he is more atmospheric.
Lin Xi sneered at this, he was in the imperial city, and he couldn't run, the imperial array was controlled by Emperor Qingyun, what was there to send someone to monitor.
After just a few hours of moving in, Fluttershy was able to figure out the entire mansion, which was newly built and didn't need to be cleaned, but the flowers and plants still needed some kind of care.
Lin Xi is reluctant to do it herself, so she can only go to Renya City in the future.
The City of Human Teeth, in the Acropolis outside the Imperial City, as the name suggests, is a place where slaves are bought and sold.
And the Acropolis is also a mix of many forces, even more complex than the forces in the Imperial City, the secret agent forces of the major empires, many self-established sects, and even some underground transactions.
It's just that the cultivation is not high, and they have to make offerings to the Qingyun Empire, and the Qingyun Empire will leave them.
Lin Xi practiced in the lotus heart building until dusk before walking out, and someone in the imperial palace had already come to pick him up. It happened that at this time, the demon puppets refined by the eight city lords also came to the Nine Heavens Mansion.
Lin Xi felt that this was not the time, so he could only let a few demon puppets stay in the mansion and enter the palace by himself.
When he came to the imperial palace, just in time, a banquet had already been set up in the side hall, and Lin Xi took a cursory look at it, the four veins of the imperial family, the heads of the nine major forces, and the one hundred and thirty-one second-rate power masters, all of whom participated with outstanding juniors in the clan.
Directly above the dragon chair, the three young men around the dragon chair sat opposite the cloud king Lin Tianlone.
The eight people below, two young people, and six teenagers are a generation behind, but they are also higher than many forces.
Lin Xi's eyes flashed, and the three people sitting opposite King Yun above were all the sons of Emperor Qingyun, the little throne: Lin Tianhan, King of Zhen, Lin Tianyan, King of Ping, and Lin Tianxi, King of Guang.
The following eight should be his so-called elder brothers, the son of the world.
This is not good in this world of cultivation, the cultivation is successful, the life expectancy is extended, you have a child at the age of 20, and you can still have a child when you are 100 years old, so that others only look at the face, and you really can't see who is the same generation as whom.
There was just one more vacant seat next to the eight princes, Lin Xi walked over, sat down slowly, and the good-looking maid beside him knelt on her knees, pouring wine for Lin Xi, with a respectful attitude and natural movements, quite self-contained.
Seeing Lin Xi coming, the eyes of many forces present flickered, and the voices were constantly transmitted in private.
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
As the waiter shouted, everyone looked solemn at the same time, and got up and bowed to the dragon chair.
"Greetings to Your Majesty. ”
"Welcome to my father!"
"Greetings to the Imperial Grandfather. ”
Lin Xi couldn't help but say, so he could only get up: "Greetings to Your Majesty." ”
Lin Tianyan was still dressed in a golden robe, with a majestic appearance, sitting on the dragon chair, and gently raised his hand: "Zhongqing's family is flat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Everyone straightened up and sat back in their positions under the gesture of Lin Tianyan's palm.
Lin Tianyan looked at Lin Xi: "Xi'er, now that you have recognized your ancestors and returned to your ancestors, you will give your imperial grandfather a drop of essence blood and integrate it into the ancestral book." ”
Lin Xi was stunned, and she really didn't know what to say about this title, but she bit her head: "I didn't." "The method of collecting sperm and blood is either a newborn baby, without a trace of pyrotechnic infection.
Either you have to step into the realm and blend with heaven and earth in order to condense.
But Lin Xi can't reach it either way.
Lin Tianyan's eyes were slightly cold.
Cloud King Lin Tianshan hurriedly said: "Nephew, my father wants your essence and blood to be integrated into the ancestral book, so that you can completely recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, why do you ......?"
"I really don't. Lin Xi rolled his eyes and didn't bother to listen: "Since my parents are not around, have I cultivated to the realm or not, how can I have essence blood." ”
"This ......" Lin Tian was silent for a moment, yes, Lin Xicai cultivated in the spiritual realm.
Lin Tianyan didn't want to dwell on this matter, and shook his head: "Then wait for Xi'er to break through the realm, and then integrate the essence blood into the ancestral book." Are Xi'er satisfied with the new mansion?"
"Satisfied. Lin Xi chuckled and nodded: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
"You little one. Lin Tianyan smiled heartily and scolded: "Why are you still called Your Majesty?"
A young man beside him whispered, "You want to call the emperor's grandfather." ”
The corners of Lin Xi's mouth twitched, and after thinking about it, he didn't suffer a loss, anyway, he was indeed Lin Tianhan's father, wasn't he?
What's more, so many forces are looking at it, if you don't call it, maybe King Yun will arrange him.
"Thank you...... Imperial grandfather. Lin Xi shouted very reluctantly.
Lin Tianyan didn't seem to hear it, and nodded with a smile.
At this time, many beautiful young women dressed in colorful clothes walked up and danced, with beautiful postures and melodious rhythms, which were pleasing to the eye.
Lin Xi naturally felt that the people around him were paying attention to him from time to time, so he didn't squint, staring at the many beauties in a daze, but he was thinking about what might happen for a while.
However, this scene fell in the eyes of others, but it made people feel that he couldn't take his eyes off.
After the dance.
Many dancers knelt down in the temple, waiting for their rewards.
Many forces applauded, and Lin Xi also came back to his senses.
Lin Tianyan was satisfied with everyone's attitude, the beauties of this song and dance were all used by many forces to please him through Lin Xi's return to the imperial city, and they were all daughters of major families, so how could they go?
"Xi'er, you're almost seventeen now, aren't you?" Lin Tianyan suddenly asked.
Lin Xiying said: "There is still more than a month. ”
"Hmm. Lin Tianyan nodded: "It's the age of marriage, but which girl do you like?"
Lin Xi frowned, what kind of idea did this cold-blooded grandfather have, and shook his head slightly: "I'm new here, and I haven't seen many daughters yet." ”
"These are all of them. Lin Tianyan looked at the many beauties below: "If you fancy which, even if you say it, presumably my grandson, there is no girl who is unwilling, right?"
The people present all changed color, the emperor actually wanted to give Lin Xi a marriage, so Lin Xi would inevitably be tied up in the imperial city, and when the immortal gate came, the emperor entered the immortal gate, with Lin Xi's talent, as long as it was not the succession of Lin Tianlone, the king of clouds, he must be the main sweets of the successor emperor.
A few days ago, Lin Xi was in the Holy Academy for three days, but his feat spread all over half of the Ten Thousand Laws Continent.
Could it be Lin Tianlian succeeding to the throne...... It's just a matter of thought.
Many forces present all have their own thoughts, mixed joys and sorrows, Lin Xi's talent and ability really make them red-eyed, but this bet is too big.
Some people who were willing to gamble stared straight at Lin Xi, full of anticipation.
If you don't want to gamble, your face is naturally ugly.
The atmosphere froze a little for a while.
On the small throne, Lin Tianhan, the young town king who was sitting opposite Lin Tianlone, chuckled: "Father, I'm afraid that these beauties won't be able to get into the eyes of my nephew, and I can't even deserve the whole picture of the beauties in the world, so why don't you go back and plan a family banquet for your nephew?"
After listening to the first half of the sentence, Lin Xi was quite happy, but the second half of the sentence made the corners of his mouth twitch.
And King Yun is face is ugly, these beauties are all arranged by him, originally wanted to be dedicated to Emperor Qingyun, but he didn't expect Lin Tianyan to be transferred to Lin Xi, that's all, maybe he can control Lin Xi because of this, but he didn't expect Lin Tianhan's sentence, he seemed to be looking for someone to fool Emperor Qingyun.
"Hmm. It's good. Lin Tianyan thought about it, nodded, and said no more.
Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief, anyway, this time he had dodged, otherwise he really took one home, and Fluttershy didn't know what to think.
"But ......" King Zhen thought for a while, "It's good to have a lady first." ”
Lin Xi was shocked, don't give a wife to marry, give a concubine?
This doesn't work, no matter what, let him bring one to the house.
Lin Xi gritted his teeth: "The king of the town has good intentions, he has no intention of taking concubines below, and there are already people he likes below." ”
"Oh?" Not only the king of the town, but everyone present was interested, and if there was a favorite person, he had a weakness, maybe he could use this to make friends with Lin Xi.
King Zhen smiled: "I don't know which girl can get the favor of the world?"
"This ......" Lin Xi's eyes flashed: "It's just unrequited love, I have to ask for clarification in the future, and I ask the king of the town to forgive me." ”
"Well, that's right. "The king of the town is no longer entangled, and many forces are also secretly guessing.
Some people speculate that it is Min Hong'er, a girl from the Min family, and some people speculate that it is Fluttershy next to Lin Xi, but Fluttershy herself is Lin Xi's slave, and even her life is Lin Xi's, so why should she marry.
At the moment, everyone is secretly sighing about the good luck of the Min family.
The corners of Lin Xi's mouth twitched, it had only been a few days, and the entire imperial city had accepted his status as His Royal Highness the Ninth Son, and he was still worried about his marriage, how could he feel so unreliable?
The banquet dispersed quickly, and Lin Xi returned to the Nine Heavens Mansion, and by the way, he brought back Lin Tianyan's will, which was nothing more than that the Nine Heavens Mansion would be his personal property from now on, and the post of inspector would be implemented.
What Lin Xi really couldn't understand was that Lin Tianyan personally demarcated the scope of his inspection, no more, no less, it was the five states related to Lin Tianhan back then, as well as the Imperial City!
If you say goodwill, you don't say anything about it when you first meet you.
If you say that you have murderous intentions for him, why send Yun Wang Dixian over?
However, Lin Xi also quickly understood that Lin Tianyan wanted to watch a group of demons dance.
The throne in the imperial city is not only the cloud king Lin Tianlone, nor is he the only one, and they can still contain each other on weekdays.
Now that Lin Xi has also come to the Imperial City, no matter which faction he joins, he will break this balance.
It's just that I don't know what the power of the three kings is.
At present, it is known that the line under the command of King Yun is a lineage, and there are eight second-rate power families.
It is not yet known whether there are any other people in the four veins of the imperial family, and the nine great families are the grass on the wall, no matter how you calculate it, Lin Xi is not considered to have an advantage.
However, Lin Xi is not useless, what he did in the three days of the Holy Academy a few days ago is already known to the world, at this time, Emperor Qingyun secretly disposed of him, if the Immortal Gate is approaching, if anyone accidentally leaks a little rumor, it will be troublesome.
Can Emperor Qingyun manage Qingyun and the hundreds of kingdoms of the other twelve empires?
But if Lin Tianyan didn't make a move, but there was a problem in the battle between many juniors, no one would be able to say anything at that time.
Just when Lin Xi was pondering in the Nine Heavens Mansion, there were also many people who were worried, and the saddest of them was Lin Tianlone.
Originally, he should be the most likely to succeed the emperor, but Lin Tianyan's words made Lin Xi a sweetheart.
It also made many forces speculate that Emperor Qingyun was likely to choose Lin Xi, and it would be impossible for Lin Tianlian to succeed to the throne.
In the Yunwang Mansion, Lin Tianlan kept walking back and forth, very anxious, and he also knew that judging from Lin Tianlan's heart of harming Lin Tianhan back then, he Lin Tianshan was not unavoidable.
But how willing Lin Tianlin was, he finally designed Lin Tianhan, even if he had the will of the upper realm that people had to obey, but he also had his own selfishness
