Chapter 858: Hesitation
The six princes picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "You are the person that Caiyue values, you know your master, although she is Bingxue smart, but she is too straightforward, and she doesn't like to use her brains in the world." ”
"I hope you can take good care of your master and try not to let her be wronged. ”
Xiang Nandao: "My own master, I naturally have unconditional filial piety. ”
"Hmm. The sixth prince nodded and said, "After discussing private matters, let's talk about official matters now." ”
"You must be curious about what kind of secret mission would make someone of my status come to see you in person. ”
"Definitely. Xiang Nan was also very strange in his heart, he knew that he was going to come to the palace to take on a royal mission, but he originally thought that having the palace ministers to receive him would be the end.
Who knows, there will be a famous Six Princes here, it seems that this mission is not easy.
The sixth prince's face suddenly changed and became extremely serious, he looked at Xiang Nan's eyes and said, "Before telling you the task, there is a very serious question to ask you, and you must answer it honestly. ”
"Excuse me. "Xiang Nandao.
The six princes leaned forward a little and said in a deep voice, "Xiang Nan, can I trust you." ”
At that moment, Xiang Nan suddenly felt as if he had been completely seen through by the Six Princes, which was a feeling that was difficult to describe.
It's like a person's eyes have penetrated into your bones, into the depths of your soul, to dig out your truest thoughts.
This kind of feeling has never been experienced by anyone, even the sect master of the Tianxuan Sect in his previous life.
Xiang Nan knew how much the word trust carried to royals.
How many deceitful people in the palace, how many open and secret battles between princes, are telling how important the word "trust" is in the royal family.
Xiang Nan talked to the six princes, adding twelve points of caution, he didn't know that the trust that the six princes said meant whether he could be loyal to the Haotian imperial family, or whether he could be loyal to the six princes personally.
"Yes, as a disciple of Haoran Sect, of course I will do my duty as a courtier to the Haotian Empire. Xiang Nan also answered very cleverly.
This kind of ambiguous remark is very unwise in political circles, and if you don't take a clear stand, you will be tantamount to asking for your own death.
But Xiang Nan never thought about politics, and he didn't plan to have too many close disputes with the royal family, so it didn't matter.
The sixth prince nodded, noncommittal to Xiang Nan's words.
He took out the letter and said, "Elder Shi Beihong has already introduced you to me, so let's talk about your task now." ”
"You know, the Tianxuan Sect and the Feiyun Sect are powerful in the Nine Heavens Continent, which puts a lot of pressure on the Nine Heavens Empire. ”
"Just a few months ago, the Nine Heavens Empire photographed an envoy to convey to me Haotian the intention to secretly cooperate. ”
"That's a good thing. "Xiang Nandao.
"Definitely. The Sixth Prince said: "With our help, the Nine Heavens Empire can relieve the pressure brought by some sect forces, and our Haotian Empire can also benefit a lot from it, of course, these are not what you should care about." ”
"And in order to express our sincerity, we are ready to escort the Nine Princesses to the royal family of the Nine Heavens Empire, if we can kiss, it is the best, if not, it will at least show our posture. ”
"But this matter, somehow it was known by the Tianxuan Sect, they will definitely obstruct it secretly. ”
"So your task is to escort the Nine Princesses to the Nine Heavens Empire safely. ”
Hearing this, Xiang Nan's mood was very heavy, if it was other tasks, it would be forgotten, but ...... Nine princesses! If something happens to these nine princesses in their own hands, I'm afraid that even Haoran Sect will be implicated.
"I don't understand. Xiang Nan muttered: "Since this is such an important matter, why do you need me, a little Returning Yuan Realm martial artist, to escort you? ”
The sixth prince smiled: "Do you think we don't have it?" ”
"For the first time, we sent five Heaven Peer Realm martial artists to escort the Nine Princesses to the Nine Heavens Continent. ”
"The second time, five Creation Realm martial artists were sent to undertake this task. ”
"But twice before and after, they were all intercepted and killed by the people of Tianxuan Sect and Feiyun Sect, and it was they who desperately protected the princess and sent the princess back. ”
"You know. The sixth prince crossed his hands and said seriously: "The higher the realm, the easier it is to become a target, and the easier it is to be discovered. ”
"After the experience of two failures, we understand that letting a high-level martial artist escort the princess will become a live target for Tianxuan Sect. ”
"And if you let a low-realm martial artist like you go to the Nine Heavens Continent, the success rate will increase. ”
"The enemies encountered in the Guiyuan Realm are always in the Guiyuan Realm, and most of the enemies encountered in the Peering Heaven Realm are in the Peering Heaven Realm, I understand this truth. Xiang Nan nodded.
"Then I, can I refuse this task?" Xiang Nan asked.
The sixth prince smiled quietly and said, "You already know about this task, so do you know what kind of person can not divulge secrets?" ”
Xiang Nan sighed helplessly and said, "What should I do." ”
Obviously, only the dead can best keep secrets.
It's easy to get on the boat, but it's hard to get off the boat.
The sixth prince said: "In order to hide people's eyes, the ninth princess has not lived in the palace since two months ago. ”
"Later, I will send someone to take you to her, you have to remember two things. ”
"First, from now on, the Ninth Princess is your immediate boss, and her words are orders. ”
"Second, your identity is too special, from now on you are not Xiang Nan, but a gentleman who specializes in teaching princess knowledge, to put it mildly, he is called a young master, and to put it bluntly, he is a teacher. ”
"Originally, it was very unwise to use you to escort you, we were worried that because of your personal grudge with Tianxuanzong, the princess would be implicated. ”
"But based on your strength, we're willing to take that risk. ”
"The disciple understood. Xiang Nan nodded.
The young master is a very big official position, and there are Taishi, Taifu, Taibao, Shaoshi, and Shaobao below.
Of course, this young master is a temporary official position given to Xiang Nan by the sixth prince, which is used to conceal his identity.
"Then ......" Xiang Nan hesitated for a moment, he came this time, mainly for Haoran Fire Pool.
The sixth prince said: "I know, you want to enter the Haoran Fire Pool. ”
"The golden body you brought back is not broken, but after all, this plan has not started yet, and you can't be rewarded for your meritorious deeds in advance. ”
"Originally, I planned for you to successfully escort the princess, and then reward you for entering the fire pool to cultivate when you come back. ”
"But considering that improving your strength is the key to the success of this trip to harmony, I can let you go in and cultivate in advance. ”
"Again, I hope what I have done is worth it, Xiang Nan, can I trust you. ”
Xiang Nan immediately stood up, bowed down and said, "Please rest assured that the six princes will go to the soup and die." ”
The sixth prince stood up and patted Xiang Nan on the shoulder: "The trust I have in you now is because of Caiyue." ”
"But I hope that you will then prove to me, by your own actual actions, that I am not believing in the wrong person. ”
"Okay, there are already people waiting for you outside, follow him to contact the Ninth Princess. ”
"Everything next, the ninth princess will make arrangements for you. ”
