Chapter 1373: Assassination
After staying in the Steel City for another three days, Lu Menglin reluctantly left. The only regret in my heart is probably that I didn't achieve the legendary blessing of Qi people.
Whether it is Su Xuejin or Jin Suyan, they would rather take turns to accompany Lu Mengyan, and the two sides have a very tacit understanding and absolutely refuse to appear at the same time.
This VIP achievement was not achieved, so Lu Menglin had to leave a good regret, but fortunately, the three of them agreed, and when the day when the earth crisis was completely eliminated, the three of them must sleep together and play happily together.
With good expectations for the future, Lu Menglu left the Steel City and returned to the Red Willow Mansion first.
He's going to stay here for a while and make some arrangements in advance. The Red Willow Mansion is the biggest force in Lu Menglan's hands, and it is also a big card on the most visible side.
But no one thought that during the time that Master Wuhao was not in the Divine City, a series of great changes occurred within the Tianzun Divine City.
During this time, Huang Shaotian has been staying in the Bright Dragon Temple, and she has to be baptized and inherited in the temple. Although she can't directly ascend to the position of Pope for the time being, the vast majority of the clergy in the Bright Dragon Temple still regard it as the first candidate for the next Pope and cultivate it carefully.
And the girl priest Huang Shaotian also relied on his bravery and kindness to gradually influence the clergy in the Bright Dragon Temple.
More and more Templars and Priests began to like her, and his greatest admirer, the Sixteenth Prince Mi Chong, encountered a despicable and shameless assassination in the early morning of the fifth day after Master Wuhao left the Divine City.
Before this assassination was launched, no one would have imagined that someone would attack such a nerd as Mi Chong.
The assassins were two Rank 43 Divine Nation warriors. They lay in ambush on the street near the Temple of the Bright Dragon, disguised themselves as vendors selling breakfast, and waited for the Sixteen Princes to pass by, when they suddenly broke out.
Caught off guard, Mi Chong was injured by the assassin's sword qi and almost died.
Fortunately, his life should not be extinguished, and Tu Shanming accompanied him to breakfast this morning, and blocked the fatal blow for him in a critical moment.
Tu Shanming, on the other hand, was extremely calm when he was seriously injured, and killed one and wounded two assassins with one enemy and two enemies.
It's a pity that he was too seriously injured and couldn't pursue him, so he could only stand guard in place and protect the sixteenth prince Michong.
When the news of the attack on Prince Michong spread throughout the Divine City, the entire government and the opposition were shocked. All forces are speculating, who will make a move on Mi Chong?
After this incident, the most annoying thing was the Six Princes Mili and his Six Princes' Mansion.
At this moment, in the meeting hall of the Six Princes' Mansion.
The sixth prince Mili was losing his temper, breaking three jade paperweights in a row, glaring angrily at the subordinates in front of him, and said angrily: "You rice buckets! All of them are rice buckets! Can't you even find out this little thing?"
"Why? Why did those two thousand knife killers, the good ones go to kill my sixteenth emperor brother? Isn't it clear that I should step on the basin?"
The subordinates standing in the council hall were all frightened and did not dare to speak up.
Because in the attack on the Sixteen Princes, the assassin who was killed by Tu Shanming on the spot turned out to be a well-known powerhouse in the Six Princes' Mansion.
This person even has a temporary position in the Feihe Army, and everyone seems to be the descendant of the Six Princes.
whereas
The identity of the person who did it with him and then escaped was quickly revealed, and that person was also a senior colonel in the Flying Crane Army.
All the spearheads were pointed at the Sixth Prince, because if it weren't for the coincidence that Tu Shanming was present, with the strength of the Sixteenth Prince, the probability of being killed on the spot was more than ninety out of nine.
However, only the sixth prince Mi Li knew that he didn't ask those two fools to kill Mi Chong at all.
Although deep down, he also admitted that he had been jealous, jealous of Mi Chong's close relationship with the martial master, but he knew very well the temper of the martial master, and at such a critical moment, it was absolutely impossible for him to do such a foolish thing.
But facts speak louder than words. The masters of the Feihe Army under the command of the Six Princes did dispatch, and the two of them almost killed Mi Chong on the spot on the long street.
It's so embarrassing. Because others would not believe it at all, the subordinates of the six princes Mili would assassinate the sixteen princes on their own without an order, this is the capital crime of the three clans of Xulian, if there is no one behind them to support them, the ghost will know.
Moreover, what made the prince of Mili extremely uneasy was that if he knew about it when Master Wuhao returned, he didn't know what would happen.
With Master Wuhao's character of protecting his shortcomings, how could he give up and rest? What's more, in addition to Mi Chong, Wu Hao's subordinates, that Hun man named Tu Shanming was also seriously injured.
Just when the sixth prince Mili frowned, not knowing what to do, his most trusted military advisor finally spoke.
"His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, could this be a conspiracy of King Ning? He deliberately rebelled against those two cowards and asked them to assassinate the Sixteenth Prince, dividing our relationship with Master Wuhao?"
The Sixth Prince, Mi Li, looked at the military master with annoyance, and said with a gloomy face: "Yes! Of course, this is King Ning's conspiracy, and only King Ning would do this." It's vile, it's shameless. But do you think that if I tell Master Wuhao like this, will he be able to listen?"
A strategist next to him hurriedly said: "Fortunately, the Sixteenth Prince is fine, and there is still room for things to turn around." As long as we explain it well, I think Master Wuhao is not an unreasonable person. ”
At this time, the military master opposite the sixth prince glanced at the people present with a calm face, and said lightly: "Your Highness, I want to talk to you alone. ”
The Sixth Prince, Mi Li, glanced at the military advisor, then looked at the strategists around him, and waved his big hand, "You guys retreat first, I'll talk to the military advisor." ”
Although everyone was unwilling, they could only leave in a huff.
After all, this Canglong military advisor was the most favored minister of His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, and he almost obeyed him.
Now that the Canglong military division wants to talk to His Highness alone, there is really nothing others can do to stop it.
After a while, after everyone had left the council hall, the Canglong Military Master looked into the eyes of the Sixth Prince Mili for a long time, and then said softly: "Your Highness, do you really value that martial master so much?"
The Sixth Prince, who was puzzled, nodded and said, "Of course, Wu Hao has the magic construction technique in his hands, and he has recently laid a new plane. The strength in his hands is good, and it is also a big help for me to deal with King Ning. What's more, he swore an oath to King Ning and is our natural ally, is there anything wrong with this?"
Canglong Military Master smiled and said, "This is the biggest problem! Your Highness, Wu Hao has always been uncontrollable and has his own faction. But the power in his hands has grown stronger and stronger. Now he has territory, soldiers and horses, and now he has a whole
A new plane. Wealth is the most important thing he lacks, not only is he inclined to this, but he also hooked up with the sixteen princes. People like this, once they turn their faces with us, the consequences are really unpredictable. ”
"You mean, Wu Hao will turn against us?" Mi Li was taken aback and asked in a deep voice.
Canglong Military Master asked rhetorically, "Hehe, Your Highness." Do you think Wu Hao can be controlled? In the future, after we clean up King Ning, will Wu Hao be willing to obey? Rather than guarding against him biting back at any time, it is better for us to strike first. ”
"What do you mean?" the Sixth Prince Mili was a little flustered, because he didn't think about attacking Wu Hao.
It's not that his friendship with Wu Hao is really that good, but he doesn't dare!
Wu Hao has risen too fast, and his personality is tough, and he will take revenge, when he was still a white body before, even King Ning dared to scare him, but now that he has become a wing, the power in his hands is getting bigger and bigger, and even the next Pope of the Bright Dragon Temple has been brought down by him, if it is not necessary, the six princes do not want to be enemies at all.
"Everything must be subject to the wishes of His Highness, I am just giving my opinion, just for your reference. Wu Hao, sooner or later, will become a big problem. It is precisely because he does not take refuge in anyone that it shows that this son of wolf is ambitious, and there will be problems one day after all. ”
Canglong Military Master paused and continued: "If we can use our strength to provoke him to fight with King Ning, and then take the opportunity to get rid of him, we may not be able to win the battle. ”
"But in this way, it means that we have to be attacked on both sides. What if Wu Hao doesn't take the bait?" "The Sixth Prince Mi Li is not a fool, he intuitively believes that Wu Hao may not be against him, but if he takes the initiative to deal with Wu Hao, with Wu Hao's character, he will inevitably fight back, and then he will be embarrassed.
If stealing chickens and rice is not successful, forcing Wu Hao to join forces with King Ning, such a result is the last thing the six princes Mili wants to see.
Canglong Military Master smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, do you think Wu Hao is a fool?"
"Of course not, if he were stupid, there would not be many smart people in this world. Miri smiled bitterly.
"That's it! King Ning thought that he had rebelled against our two warriors and would be able to deceive Wu Hao by assassinating the Sixteenth Prince, which was a big mistake. As long as we guide Wu Hao, let him know King Ning's conspiracy, and then drive the tiger and devour the wolf, let him and King Ning lose both, and we will sit back and enjoy the success, then the general trend can be expected. ”
"It's going to be very difficult to operate, isn't it?" said the Sixth Prince, with a look of embarrassment.
Canglong Military Master smiled and said, "Now is a great opportunity. Wu Hao's backer, the thunder great priest closed the death pass, which means that the Bright Dragon Temple's support for him is limited, and this is a good opportunity to deal with him, I believe that King Ning will not let go of this opportunity. ”
"We can play a scene with Wu Hao, pretend to fight him, and lead King Ning to make a move. And then let the two of them fight to the death. In fact, the key to this move lies in two words, show weakness! As long as the six princes are willing to be weak, the stronger the martial arts will be. King Ning had to come forward and fight him. ”
After hearing this, the sixth prince took a deep breath, nodded involuntarily, and said, "This is indeed a very tempting idea. As for whether or not to do this, let me think again. ”
In the heart of the Sixth Emperor Mi Li, Wu Hao didn't look like an ambitious person, and the reason why he was friendly with the Sixteen Emperor Brother Mi Chong was because the two of them were essentially the same kind of people.
In the eyes of the six princes, they are all nerds, but one is a craftsman nerd and the other is a nerd.
