Chapter 34: Sun Le's Purpose
Through Qin Xiang's introduction on the side, Hong Lie and Hong Yuan also knew the identities of Xu Duan and Shu Yu, for Xu Duan, the two of them rose to make friends, and at the same time looked at Shu Yu more intensely, Qin Xiang did not say that Shu Yu's usual attitude towards the people who coveted her, obviously Qin Xiang also had a joking heart for the two princes, and was not so blindly pleasing the two. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Brother Xu Duan, right, in Xia Honglie, the eldest prince of the empire, I will toast you for the first time." Hong Lie stood up directly as he spoke, holding up his wine glass, obviously what Qin Xiang told him about Xu Duan also made him pay a lot of attention.
"Brother Xu, in Xia Hongyuan, I also toast you!" Not to be outdone, Hong Yuan also stood up and toasted Xu Duan.
"Take a good look at the two princes." A gleam flashed in Xu Duan's eyes, and Sun Lao's voice sounded in his mind. At this time, I understood why Sun Lao glanced at him very meaningfully just now, although Sun Lao's purpose, but since Sun Lao said, then he had to give Sun Lao a satisfactory answer.
However, Xu Duan suddenly felt a chill behind him, and saw Shu Yu's cold face on the side, and at the same time, his white and tender little hands made a twisting motion, and then Xu Duan shrank his neck, knowing that Shu Yu meant not to give these two people a good look, but Xu Duan was pregnant with the task arranged by Sun Lao, so he had to stand up hard, and at the same time pondered how to make Shu Yu feel comfortable.
"Hehe, in the next Xu Duan, thanks to the attention of the two princes, Xu Mou did it first as a respect!" After Xu Duan finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass in his hand and drank it all.
"Brother Xu is polite, now the situation in the empire is tense, and the empire needs you talents!" Hong Lie said with a smile.
"Yes, Brother Xu is humble, compared to Brother Xu's ability, he must surpass everyone, I don't know Brother Xu's current cultivation?" Hong Yuan continued.
"Oh, I'm in the late stage of the Qiliquid Realm now!" Xu Duan said with a smile on his face.
"Late stage of the air-liquid realm?" Hong Lie frowned and looked at Qin Xiang on the side.
Hong Yuan was slightly stunned, and then smiled again, giving people the feeling that he respected Xu Duan more, his first reaction when he heard Xu Duan's cultivation was shock, and then he was relieved, obviously Hong Yuan was scheming, and he could guess that although Xu Duan was in the late stage of the Qi and Liquid Realm, it should not be very simple, otherwise he would not let Qin Xiang and Hong Xiaolong and others take the lead, and he was also the boss of the first force in the school, and at the same time, Hong Yuan was to hug his fist to Xu Duan again, neither looked down nor agreed.
"Our boss has defeated the powerhouse of the third order of the Spirit Gathering Realm with the cultivation of the Qi and Liquid Realm!" Qin Xiang deliberately said in a loud voice, and at the same time glanced at Xu Duan flatteringly.
Li Zheng looked at Xu Duan in surprise, he didn't expect Xu Duan's cultivation to be not very high, and his combat effectiveness was so strong, and his attitude towards Xu Duan in his heart changed greatly, after all, strong people are respected wherever they are.
Xu Duan was also amused when he saw Qin Xiang's appearance, but he admired Qin Xiang for being able to curry favor with him for some interests, regardless of his previous suspicions.
Li Hong, who was sitting at the table behind them, couldn't help but turn his face to look at Xu Duan when he heard Qin Xiang's words, he was also very surprised. Hawley didn't show anything, just smiled and remained silent, obviously knowing all this for a long time. Zhu Hengxing was also overjoyed when he saw Li Hong's surprised expression, and hurriedly said, "Li Hong, this Xu Duan is a student of my Divine Arithmetic Sect!" ”
"Li Hong is here to congratulate his seniors!" Li Hong saw Zhu Hengxing raise his eyebrows proudly at Yang Lianyin, and guessed the subtle relationship between the two deputy sect masters.
"Hmph, what's proud, Shu Yu is still from my martial arts sect! The first place in the school, how to drop, old man Zhu, I don't accept the comparison! Yang Lianyin couldn't hold face in front of outsiders, and retorted.
"Drink, don't make noise." Sun Lao's flat voice came, and Zhu Hengxing and Yang Lianyin immediately stopped talking, and drank honestly.
"Oh, Brother Xu! What a faux pas just now, I'll punish myself! After Hong Lie heard Qin Xiang's words, he hurriedly got up and apologized for his performance just now.
"Why is the eldest prince so polite, what happened to you just now?" Xu Duan asked as if he didn't know.
"When I heard Brother Xu's cultivation just now, I couldn't believe it, so I ......" Hong Lie didn't expect Xu Duan to say this, it turned out that Xu Duan didn't see his impolite performance at all, and then his expression was a little embarrassed.
Xu Duan interrupted Hong Lie's words nonchalantly and began to talk to them about the imperial capital.
The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors. Several people chatted enthusiastically, and at the same time, Xu Duan also learned something about the current situation of the empire from their mouths.
Several of them were drunk, and their faces were a little crimson. Hong Lie even launched a drunken madness, constantly provoking Shu Yu, Hong Yuan was quite calm, I don't know if he forced the wine out with aura.
"Okay, let's go back after eating, Xu Duan stays, and I have two drinks with the old man." Sun Lao said with a smile.
After Xu Duan said goodbye to the two princes, including those who came with the two princes, Shu Yu, Hong Xiaolong and others also left. Xu Duan came to Sun Lao's table, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it.
Sun Lao and the others were not unhappy because of Xu Duan's rudeness, but looked at Xu Duan with a smile on their faces. Xu Duan waited until a few people left, and then took the lead in asking, "I don't know who this adult is?" ”
"My name is Holly, and I am the Minister of the First Rank of the Empire, and I came here this time to lead the students to the Falling Star Secret Realm on the orders of the emperor." Hawley introduced himself directly, looking quite respectful.
From the time Xu Duan found out that Qin Xiang was very close to this person, he knew that this person might be very close to Qin Hui, so Xu Duan was not surprised by Holly's performance.
"Alright, let's go, let's get down to business." Sun Lao took a sip of wine, put it down, and said with a serious expression.
When the others heard Sun Lao's words, they also reshaped their faces, except for Zhu Hengxing and Yang Lianyin, who were still a little drunk, Li Hong and Huo Li were completely drunk, and obviously used their aura to force the wine out. Li Hong's cultivation is Xu Duan can't see through, but he can see through Holly's cultivation, Holly's cultivation in the middle of the cyclone realm, his cultivation is not high, and the whole person exudes the spirit of a scholar, and at first glance he is a civil official.
"Li Hong, tell me about it." Sun Lao waved his hand and motioned to Li Hongdao.
Li Hong arched his hand and began to tell Xu Duan slowly, he could feel that Sun Le trusted Xu Duan very much, so he also told Xu Duan the matter without reservation, Xu Duan was very surprised after listening to it, and at the same time sighed in his heart The sinister heart of this person.
The purpose of Sun Lao asking Xu Duan to observe the two princes was that one of the two princes betrayed the empire just to get the throne. The reason for the matter is this, when the Red Sun Empire was about to move, General Yue Fei began to plan countermeasures, and once the Red Sun Empire was launched, he would take the lead in catching them off guard.
But because the eldest prince and the second prince strongly asked him to participate in the planning at that time, Emperor Hongping was quite helpless when he saw that the two princes were fighting for each other, so he agreed.
The top brass of the military are Yue Fei's henchmen, and no one will leak the plan at all, but only this time with the participation of Hong Lie and Hong Yuan, the plan was leaked! According to the undercover report planted by the Red Sun Empire, the Red Sun Empire's military has made new moves, and everything they do is to deal with the plan to dominate the Imperial military, and the undercover agent was also killed because of this incident.
"That's why I want you to take a look, old man, after all, you're very smart." Old Sun looked at Xu Duan with kindness.
Xu Duan scratched his head embarrassedly, arched his hand and said: "Actually, just by the contact with them just now, I don't dare to say how much I know them, but I can see a lot of their personalities and attitudes towards things." ”
"Oh? Little brother, let's hear it. Holly looked at Xu Duan with interest, obviously he didn't expect Xu Duan to have extraordinary abilities in martial arts talent, and his mind was not simple.
"Although Hong Lie is reckless on the surface, he is very meticulous in his heart, I feel that his recklessness is all pretended by him, this person is very deep in the city, and he is very good at hiding himself."
"Hong Principle is unwilling to talk more, but his mind reacts very quickly, and his scheming city government is not weaker than Hong Lie, and at the same time, every thing he says makes people unable to see his joys, sorrows, and sorrows."
Xu Duan then said some of his own opinions and observations, which were also praised and recognized by Hawley, obviously Xu Duan's analysis is not far from ten.
"Haha, I really deserve to be the one who counts my gods!" Zhu Hengxing danced and glanced at Yang Lianyin with disdain.
Yang Lianyin snorted heavily, ignoring Zhu Hengxing.
"Actually, I'm not asking you to find out who is treasonous, but just letting you know more about them, they will also enter the Falling Star Secret Realm, and you should still observe them when the time comes. This is also the emperor after knowing that I came back, and asked me to help him find the culprit, after all, both of them are his sons, and he is also very troubled, because once the real murderer is caught, this is a capital crime. Sun Lao said lightly.
"Okay, Elder Sun, I know, since there is nothing else to do, the kid will go back first." Xu Duan stood up and hugged his fists.
"Go ahead."
Xu Duan bowed deeply to a few people and turned to leave. But just as he took the first step, there was a heart-rending scream outside the main hall!
"Ah!!!h
Xu Duan turned his face to look at Sun Lao and the others, and found that except for Holly, who was puzzled, everyone else was smiling helplessly, Xu Duan's face was suspicious, and he quickly rushed towards the outside of the main hall. When he came to the outside of the main hall, he found that Hong Lie was lying on the ground with his lower body convulsed not far ahead, Xu Duan saw Shu Yu holding his head high on the side, glanced at Hong Lie sympathetically, and saw Hong Yuan on the side trembling.
"Let's go, don't make trouble." Xu Duan came to Shu Yu's side and whispered, and hurriedly pulled her away. Hong Xiaolong, Yue Feng, and Qin Xiang followed behind, laughing vigorously.
If you want to blame Hong Lie's dishonest hands, he wants to take advantage of Shu Yu, Hong originally wanted to be close to Shu Yu, after all, he couldn't 'show' in the hall, and after he came out, he tried his best to please Shu Yu, but he didn't expect Hong Lie to start directly.
Hong Yuan looked at Hong Lie's distorted face, and his heart palpitated. At the same time, the secret road is fortunate that he is not cheap, otherwise he will definitely not be able to protect his life.
