Chapter 972: Go, the farther the better
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present suddenly changed, and they all looked at Lan Xiang, with incomprehension in their eyes, only Xiao Zhang was very happy.
"Or Xiang'er understands me." Xiao Zhang took Lan Xiang's hand and put it on his chest, "Xiang'er, feel it, this is the heartbeat of being understood." ”
Now Lan Xiang no longer has the strange cold qi in her body, but at this moment she seems to have returned to the past, and her face is cold and intimidating.
Xiaohuan walked over, glanced at Lan Xiang with a strange expression, and then said to Xiao Zhang: "Young master, this is the invitation of the prince today, in fact, it can be regarded as a holy decree, if the young master does not go, it will be a protest decree." ”
"Yes, yes, Xiaohuan is right!" Fang Fang also came over, first glanced at Lan Xiang, and then said to Xiao Zhang, "Brother Zhang, resisting the decree is not a small crime." ”
Xiaohuan and Fang Fang are a pair of enemies who fight when they meet, but they are on the same side at the moment.
Xiaohuan said again: "What's more, the prince is the father of the young master, so it is reasonable, public and private, the young master should go!" ”
"Yes, yes, Xiaohuan is right!" Fang Fang immediately chimed in, "You should go, you should go!" ”
Xiao Zhang held Lan Xiang's hand tightly, he could feel that her hand was starting to get cold again, and there was even sweat in the palm of her hand, although he had already run the Samadhi True Fire, he still couldn't warm that hand.
He knew that Lan Xiang must be struggling violently in her heart, and he also knew that she must have disobeyed some powerful force for her own good.
"Xiang'er, I believe in you." Xiao Zhang looked at Lan Xiang and said with a firm gaze, "However, you don't have to do something reluctant for me. ”
Lan Xiang's expression was cold and she didn't say a word.
At this time, Zhuge Servant smiled slightly and said, "Gao Tu is a smart person, and he will definitely not do things that are not smart." ”
Xiao Zhang was not polite to Zhuge Closely, he immediately asked, "What do you mean?" What's not smart? ”
Seeing the smell of gunpowder in Xiao Zhang's words, Zhuge hurriedly shook his hand and smiled: "It's not interesting to be here, this is a matter for the high disciples, so naturally the high disciples have to decide for themselves, and they just make a little suggestion in the next place." ”
"You're still making suggestions, huh? You're clearly threatening me! Xiao Zhang was greatly displeased, and at the same time looked at the people around him, "How do I feel, you seem to be threatening me with all your hearts!" Say, isn't it? If so, for what purpose? ”
Xiaohuan said with a worried face: "Young master, the slave is really thinking about your safety!" Failure to obey the decree is a capital crime! ”
"Yes, yes, Xiaohuan is right!" Fang Fang jumped out again to echo, and at the same time stood firmly by Xiaohuan's side, and even looked at Lan Xiang with some hostility.
At this time, a voice sounded from a distance: "Xiao Zhang, since the prince is invited, why don't you go?" ”
Xiao Zhang looked up, and saw that the person was dressed as a scholar, his face was slightly old, but he was very energetic, this person was none other than the sage Zhang Wu.
Xiao Zhang still had a lot of respect for Zhang Wu, he immediately walked over and saluted Zhang Wu deeply: "Xiao Zhang greets Master Zhang." ”
Zhang Wu smiled slightly, helped Xiao Zhang up, and said, "Okay, Xiao Zhang, it's only been a long time, and you have entered the third gate." ”
"Thank you Master Zhang for the compliment." Xiao Zhang bowed again.
Zhang Wu smiled: "I heard it just now, you said you don't want to go to the prince's celebration party?" ”
Xiao Zhang was silent for a moment and said, "Yes." ”
Zhang Wu asked, "Why don't you go?" ”
Xiao Zhang was silent again, and then asked rhetorically: "Master Zhang also thinks that I should go?" ”
Zhang Wu laughed heartily and said: "You are the hero of the empire, the prince should be specially set up for you, because you have destroyed the demon Dao, you are the first hero of the empire, if you don't go, what is the point of the celebration?" ”
Since Zhang Wu had spoken, even if Xiao Zhang didn't want to go, he still wanted to give Zhang Wu a face, so he hesitated and looked at Lan Xiang.
Lan Xiang, who had been silent for a long time, opened his mouth and said: "The extermination of the Demon Dao is the credit of the Western Expedition army, and it is also the credit of the first emperor's strong support, what credit does Xiao Zhang have?" ”
Lan Xiang's tone was cold and stiff, and he was refuting the sage Zhang Wu! Suddenly, everyone was taken aback, because no one had ever dared to contradict the saint.
was confronted in public, but Zhang Wu didn't care at all, and said with a slight smile: "If it weren't for Xiao Zhang's solo breakthrough in the Demon Dao, how could he have won the great victory of the army of the Western Expedition?" ”
"Please pay attention to the words, saints!" Lan Xiang's cold voice was intimidating, "How could Xiao Zhang ever break into the Demon Dao alone? ”
Zhang Wu's smile was still bright: "Xiao Zhang's miraculous feat, does the princess want to deliberately bury it?" ”
Lan Xiang said coldly: "The merit is high and the Lord is shocked, there will be no good end." ”
Xiao Zhang stood firmly beside Lan Xiang and said, "Xiang'er is right, I have never broken through the Demon Dao, where did I get the credit?" ”
"Even if it's useless, you should go." Zhang Wu finally put away his smile, and his tone was a little serious, "Because it was not only the prince's invitation, but also your father's invitation." ”
Xiao Zhang sighed and said, "Just go, who is afraid of whom?" Can he still eat me? ”
"I can't eat you, but I can kill you!" Lan Xiang seemed to be out of the way, and she couldn't care about anything, and her originally clear voice became a little hoarse, "Then again, even if you don't go, they will try their best to kill you." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and the atmosphere in the room was a little tense.
"Presumptuous!" Zhang Wu was finally angry, the saint was angry, the heavens and the earth changed color, and the sun and the moon dimmed, "As the eldest princess, you should be guilty of such rebellious words?" ”
Lan Xiang didn't answer, but her chest was rising and falling violently, she had never had any emotions, and she was really angry at this moment, which showed that she must have an extremely important secret hidden in her heart.
Xiao Zhang gently hugged Lan Xiang into his arms and said, "Xiang'er, I believe in you, I won't go." ”
Lan Xiang also hugged Xiao Zhang tightly, and Xiukou leaned into Xiao Zhang's ear, and her voice was low but extremely serious: "Don't go to the palace, and leave the Central Plains as soon as possible, quickly!" It is a catastrophe to be able to escape! ”
Xiao Zhang was shocked by Lan Xiang's tone, and said slightly stunned: "Leaving the Central Plains? Why? Where do you want me to go? ”
Lan Xiang said: "You can go anywhere, as long as you don't stay in the Central Plains, you have to be fast, it's too late." ”
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Xiao Zhang, who has always been calm, was also a little flustered, "I'll leave the Central Plains now, the farther away the better." What about you? Are you coming with me? ”
Lan Xiang shook her head, with tears in her beautiful eyes: "What happens next can only depend on your own creation, I can't accompany you." ”
"Xiang'er, what the hell is going on? What's going on? Xiao Zhang hugged Lan Xiang hard and asked in a trembling voice.
