Chapter 119: Who is the lord of the ups and downs?
At this time in the past, the second prince would lie on the bed early and fall asleep beautifully. But now that he has gone to bed, although his face is full of countless tiredness, his eyes are always difficult to close.
"Bring me the wine" finally opened his eyes again from the state of closing his eyes and wanting to sleep. He stood up from the top of the bed, rubbed his wrinkled forehead with his fingers, and commanded the subordinates beside him helplessly.
But then a subordinate walked into the room, knelt directly in front of the second prince, and passed the words of the visiting guest: "Second prince, Lord Li Jie came to visit, let me ask if you have received it?" “
Li Jie is an honest courtier he befriended, and his rank is considered to be a high-ranking courtier, and the second prince also attaches more importance to it on weekdays. At the moment, I couldn't sleep anyway, and I was bored and wanted to talk to someone, so I got up and started to pack my clothes.
While tidying up his appearance, he asked, "Is he the only one?" I also subconsciously asked, but I didn't expect the next person's answer to be: "No, Master Li Jie seems to have two black-clothed masked men next to him, saying that they are his friends." “
The second prince seemed to sense that something was wrong, and his shirted hand stagnated in the air before continuing to move. Then he instructed the servant: "Invite them to the living room, and prepare the food and drink, and I will not get drunk with them tonight." “
The idiom "if you don't get drunk, you won't return" came out of the mouth of the second prince, which is really hard to believe. However, the subordinates didn't dare to ask more, bowed and saluted, and then quietly left.
Looking at the back of the departing subordinate, the second prince stopped what he was doing, raised his right hand, stroked his chin, and kept rolling his eyes, as if he was thinking about something? Li Jie? At this time, I don't know what's going on?

The second prince did not make the guests wait for a long time, and the time to change into a shirt was very fast. When he arrived at the living room, the servants had just brought the prepared food and drinks to the table.
The moment he walked in the door, under the bright candlelight, the first thing he saw was the two black-covered beings. Although the second prince is not good at cultivation, he is also a martial artist in the late stage of the Huayuan Realm, and with such a level of martial arts, he can't detect the breath of the two of them at all.
If there is no breath reaction, is it very weak? No, on the contrary, this undoubtedly shows their extremely strong and mysterious strength. Above the Guyuan Realm? There was speculation, but there was no real confirmation.
"Brother Li, don't come unharmed, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm afraid I will go to the Three Treasures Hall today without anything!" put away the peep in his eyes at the two black-clothed people, but turned his gaze to Li Jie on the side, and said it in a straight line with a tentative thought.
The second prince smiled, Li Jie missed the second prince all the time, didn't he come to visit when he had time? If you disturb the second prince, you have to ask the second prince to forgive me. Li Jie is also a person in the officialdom, and he does not talk about his true purpose at all.
"Who are these two?" Knowing how powerful Li Jie's mouth was, the second prince deliberately cast a contemptuous look. Then he changed the topic, and naturally drew the focus of everything to the two men in black.
At this moment, when I got closer, I found that the two men in black still had a mask on their faces at the moment, but they were blocked by thick clothes before, and they didn't notice it. And such a discovery undoubtedly added a touch of mystery to the identities of the two again.
Li Jie seemed to have expected to introduce the two: "These two are my friends, and they admire the second prince very much on weekdays, but it doesn't happen that I came to visit at this moment, and they want to see the true face of the second prince." ”
"Really? But why don't the two of them show their true colors? The second prince knew the hypocrisy in Li Jie's words, and asked again.
Li Jie raised his eyes and unconsciously looked at the two men in black, as if he had received some instructions, he stretched out his hand to hold the second prince's shoulder and said: "Second prince, this wine and food have been served for a long time, if you don't sit down, I'm afraid it's going to be cold, so let's sit down and talk slowly." “
Li Jie's meaning is obvious, obviously he doesn't want to continue the conversation on the topic of "masking", and deliberately changes the topic.
Although the second prince was extremely curious about the identities of the two black-clothed masked men, he also had no intention of continuing to entangle on the masks.
"Brother Li is right, please take a seat, although I am the master's family, but don't give me face, if there is anything dissatisfied, just tell me." The hypocritical smile on the face of the second prince will only remind people that he is also a member of the royal family.
The four of them sat down, and the two men in black didn't say a word from beginning to end, and Li Jie coped with all of them. After three rounds of drinking, Li Jie unconsciously cast his eyes on the two again, as if he had received some instructions.
"Second prince, as the saying goes, people have three urgencies, and if you are unwell today, leave for a while, presumably the prince doesn't mind, right?" When he said this, his body automatically stood up and walked out of the house.
The atmosphere of the banquet, because of Li Jie's departure, instantly fell into a cold field, and the three of them did not speak, but just drank by themselves. Drinking and drinking, Li Jie didn't come back for a long time.
"Let's say, when the two of you come to the mansion of a down-and-out prince like me, I'm afraid they have other plans." After all, the second prince was the first to speak, and the doubts in his heart, coupled with the cold atmosphere at the moment, made it clear to him that it was time for him to speak.
When the two heard the second prince's words, they first glanced at each other. Through the masks, it was impossible to see their expressions, but the second prince felt that the two seemed to be laughing, which was an expression that was expected.
Among the two, one person played the role of answering the second prince, and he only said sixteen words: "The sky changes the lord, the earth changes the king, the dynasty is in the great dynasty, who is the lord of the ups and downs?" Such words seemed to carry a unique shock and temptation, constantly rippling in the eardrums of the second prince.
"What do you mean by that?" The second prince barely pulled a smile on his face. It's just that such a smile can be called extremely ugly, or to be precise, it should be extremely blunt.
······
Countdown time, countdown steps, when everything returns to zero. A wordless thought made Lin Ji's body instantly turn into the smoothest form.
In the dark night, a black shadow fell from the sky in an instant, and the sharp tone of purple shone sharply. A moment is a thought, twenty thoughts are a moment, and twenty moments are a snap of a finger. This life is just a flick of a finger from those three prey.
At the same time as Lin Ji made a move, the other eyes behind him were also the eyes, and finally caught their prey, the so-called praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind, perhaps it was the best way to express the relationship between so many people.
But in the end, whether the cicada dies, or the praying mantis dies, or even the yellow finch misses, as long as everything is not in the end, it will not be clear.
