Tiandu Annex.

Sigh softly.

"Ning Yi, I never thought of the second option. ”

Li Baijiao said seriously: "You are the only one." It always has been. ”

The wind in the Tiandu Courtyard gradually rose, blowing the long hair of the prince and Ning Yi, and the two of them looked at each other across a table, and the long sword inserted into the jade case divided a boundary.

The atmosphere solidifies -

"You are very strong, this hall did not expect that you would be able to come back alive from the world of the demon clan...... In a sense, you are stronger than the immortal in Qiang Mountain. ”

The prince smiled.

"When we met Tiandu for the first time, I was very glad to see your 'weak' side, and it was at that moment that I decided to 'cross the sea of suffering' for you. ”

The prince spoke in a soft tone, as if he was chatting with an old friend.

But Ning Yi's expression did not ease.

"What did you give me 'crossing the sea of suffering' for?"

"For what...... I don't know. Maybe it's for a favor, maybe it's because of the touch of my heart, maybe it's my simple appreciation. The prince shook his head, "But the real reason is that I want you to become a little stronger, a little stronger, a little stronger, so strong that ...... Enough to subvert the East. ”

"This is also known as the 'solution to the peace'. Li Baijiao said with a smile: "Some of my family feuds and grievances with Beluga are not enough for outsiders. The matter of defeating Liuli Mountain, Ah Shou can't take over, only you can. ”

He paused and said:

"Today, in the Nirvana realm, no one can kill Han Yue. ”

Again:

"But you are the exception. ”

No response.

Ning Yi pulled out his long sword, and the jade case broke in response, splitting in half.

"You gave me to cross the sea of suffering, and I saved the girl...... As you can see, I'm getting stronger. He said quietly: "Moreover, my biggest weakness is no longer there." I came to the palace tonight to tell you that I don't want to see a tentative trick like Yan Xiling tonight. ”

The prince smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Ning." You're overthinking. ”

Ning Yi frowned.

"All people have weaknesses, except the dead. Li Baijiao took a firm tone and smiled lightly: "...... You will care about Pei Lingsu, you will care about the General's Mansion, you have a lot of people you care about, don't you? Knowing that Yan Xiling is a killing game, you still went, that little guy surnamed Gu, your brother...... These people are your weakness. ”

"I'm just trying to confirm a conjecture tonight. ”

The prince also got up slowly.

It's been a long, long, long time...... No one had made him so dignified.

The crown prince said softly: "After the battle between Shen Yuanjun and the White Emperor, his cultivation was completely damaged. ”

Ning Yi's pupils contracted suddenly, although his expression did not change, such a subtle detail was enough to confirm what the prince said.

"Go south to the north, come to the heavens to feast. It is the only 'solution'. If the heavens know that the northern general's cultivation is broken, then the general's mansion will also be broken. ”

The prince put his hands behind his back and said lightly, "This is what Shen Yuan thinks...... He was right, but he thought of the temple as too dirty and filthy. Da Sui can't withstand the twists and turns of the bloody night of Tiandu, and there is no way to lose a 'Pei Min' anymore. ”

Ning Yi looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief.

He inevitably thought in a trance that during the negotiations in Lingshan, the crown prince showed his ambition to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, and recovering the four realms of Sui and pacifying the four realms was only the first step...... The next step is to close the world and step through Fengming.

"Today

Night...... It wasn't a temptation at all, and I had already made my choice. Rest assured, Shen Yuan will be fine. ”

The prince said lightly: "The contradiction between you and Xiao Wuliang Mountain, the main hall sees it, after tonight, Zhu Mi is seriously injured, the heavens are ordered, the four realms are isolated, and Xiao Wuliang Mountain is my gift to you." ”

"Within the four realms, someone will always sharpen your sword for you. How about the stone I chose for you?"

Ning Yi's expression stiffened, remembering the death of someone tonight, and said, "That'...... Li Changshou?"

The name of Li Changshou.

Silence the Prince.

He spoke self-deprecatingly, as if he were speaking to himself.

"I have to admit that you're right, I'm an unlikable guy. In my eyes, everyone is a pawn...... In order to achieve the ultimate goal, everyone can die, and everyone can sacrifice. ”

Speaking of the back, the voice gradually lowered, and the smile on the prince's face gradually faded and became numb.

"It's just that you're wrong, I don't think of myself as a chess player. There is a lack of a chess player in this world. ”

"At some point—" He looked at Ning Yi faintly, his voice low and powerful, "You are the same, and so am I." It's the same for everyone. ”

Ning Yi was stunned.

The plain of bones in his body twitched slightly.

His gut told him...... The prince is aware of the existence of the "sword bearer" and the "shadow".

Ning Yi wanted to speak again and again, and finally fell silent.

The prince walked out of the long pavilion, the wooden door outside the courtyard was blown open by the wind, revealing the corridor leading to the deep palace, the palace in the middle of the night was as silent as an abyss, the young man put his hands behind his back and walked out, against the strong wind.

The cold wind blew the robe and blew on his cheeks, and the biting coldness made Li Baijiao sober up.

Rarely did he have the same ups and downs as he does now.

In this world, there is no one worthy of him confiding in his heart.

Li Baijiao turned his head and suddenly asked, "Do you know what will happen tonight?"

Ning Yi thought for a while, then frowned and said, "The rebel party in the eastern border colluded with the government and concealed the traces of crime, and will be detained in the prison of the Law Enforcement Department tonight." ”

"No...... Not a law enforcement jail. ”

The prince pointed out Ning Yi's mistake with a smile and said, "It's the 'Supervision Department Prison'." ”

Ning Yi was stunned.

This is the first time that the crown prince has publicly acknowledged the existence of the Supervision Department in front of the world.

"I guess you also know, when the palace banquet was held, I already started. The crown prince smiled, looked out of the palace wall pointedly, and said, "Yun Xun is your person?" Those spies in the Intelligence Department are watching very well, and Gongsun Yue's wind and grass can't escape the surveillance. ”

Ning Yi narrowed his eyes, "You got the list of rebels in the eastern border, and you decided to do it tonight?"

The prince stood in the gale.

"I'm not going anywhere else tonight, and I'm not going to give a command. I will stand in this courtyard with you and watch this good show unfold. ”

He turned around, looked at Ning Yi, and said slowly: "Since the end of the scorching tide, I have been thinking about a question...... A very serious, but also funny question. ”

"I don't have the stupid courage of my third brother, nor the strength of my father. If I don't ascend to the True Dragon Throne, I will never be able to control the ministers, and if I don't kill the rebels in the East, I will never be able to erase the undercurrent of the court. Then this funny question arises...... How to defeat the rules under the rules?"

"The only thing that breaks the old rules is the new ones. ”

"So I started to set up the 'Fourth Division', and there you have it

The ...... of the day is now and tonight. The prince said softly: "I need someone, someone whose hands are destined to be stained with blood, to do all this for me." ”

He looked at Ning Yi, and the meaning in his eyes was more than that.

"Ning Yi, you are too uncontrollable, so I need someone to restrain you. ”

The prince opened his heart and said such a sentence, and he laughed when he said it, in the eyes of Ning Yi at this moment, this was indeed a very ridiculous word.

"Restrain me...... Just rely on Gongsun Yue?"

Ning Yi also smiled.

But soon, he realized that something was wrong, and the intelligence department's summons order on his waist began to tremble, and the dense news of Yun Xun came in a very short period of time.

The first message is-

Gongsun Yue was waiting outside the palace for the handover, and the second list was still in his hands. The E-shaped group determined that Gongsun Yue was forced to cut off all contact with the outside world. ”

Very good.

Everything is under control.

The prince's "beheading operation" tonight, if there is any wind and grass, then he will know it as soon as possible.

Article 2 -

"But the emissaries of the Fourth Division seem to have received orders and have begun to move quickly. ”

Ning Yi's smile froze.

According to the available information, there should be two lists in Tiandu, the first list is the inconsequential small fish and shrimp, and the second list is the really important "traitorous big fish", which is the real criminal who will be beheaded tonight - this list has always been in the hands of Gongsun Yue!

The crown prince has never met with Gongsun, who is under his own surveillance the whole time, how can there be action?

Who is directing the operation?

"The rebels from the eastern borders on the first list have been arrested and sent to prison after the palace feast. It is very likely that the second list has been leaked, No. 13 Changning Street, Jingzhao Yin is full of death, blood is flowing all over the steps, and No. 37 Tianshui Street is ......"

Yun Xun began to report on the results of the Fourth Division.

This raid came extremely ferociously, and the means were brutal, those small fish and shrimp on the first list still saved one life, and the "big guys" on the second list died directly!

"Reconfirm, reconfirm, Gongsun Yue did not participate in the operation, and tonight's beheading operation of the Supervision Division, another person commanded and manipulated. ”

There was a brief pause in the arraignment, followed by a report of casualties and casualties.

Ning Yi's fingertips trembled and looked at the prince.

Li Baijiao looked at him steadily, and the two of them have never left since they met, and no outsiders have joined the conversation.

The crown prince did not have time to issue the instruction.

The night was still bleeding, and the "man behind the scenes" who kept manipulating the nightkin and constantly writing orders used the pen instead of the sword in the long night, sending out one killing admonition after another.

"No one seems to have doubted the authenticity of the ethereal 'Fourth Division'. ”

The crown prince smiled, "Because everyone has seen the real blood, and they have seen the person who scared the Tiandu court, that person is real, so the 'Fourth Division' is also real." Gongsun killed many people, did a lot of things, and stood in front of sentient beings...... Therefore, the sentient beings should think that he is the head of the Supervision Department. ”

"But actually, he's not. ”

This sentence was like a heavy hammer smashing into Ning Yi's heart.

He thought of a very bad, terrible possibility......

Li Baijiao put his hands behind his back and said softly: "Ning Yi, I heard that Xu Qingyan will send you a letter from the East Chamber every month, why don't you take it apart and take a look?"
