Chapter 253: Great Cause Can Be Expected
Shao Yuan was calm, calmly got on the horse, looked back and smiled, and said to Jiang Xuan, "How many crown princes are there in the Cloud Palace?" ”
Jiang Xuan frowned, took the reins, and got on the horse neatly, ignoring the question.
"Where's Old Man Xu?" He looked not far away, Nanhe was rainy all year round, and there was often fog outside the country, squinting his eyes, and after looking for a long time, he was sure that there was no one behind him, which made him a little more suspicious.
Over the years, which crown prince was not beautiful when he arrived in the Cloud Palace, followed by a long procession, even if these were left with nothing because of Bai Hua's decline, then, there must always be an elder of the Sect Elders next to him to hold the ceremony, since Elder Xu, as the person who determined the identity of this person, should stand with her.
His eyes were cold, and he looked at Shao Yuan solemnly, Shao Yuan smiled charmingly, brushed the broken hair around his ear, and said softly, "Elder Xu has other important matters, it is inconvenient to accompany me back to the Cloud Palace, if you must doubt me, then there is no way." ”
She stretched out her slender fingers and threw the token in her arms to Jiang Xuan.
As soon as the wooden plaque entered his arms, Jiang Xuan confirmed the authenticity.
After thinking for a while, he continued, "Since Elder Xu handed over the token to you, then you should go back to the Cloud Hall with me first. ”
made a decision, turned his head, and quickly set up his horse back to the Red River Cloud Palace.
The head of the Cloud Palace's personal guard is young, and his efficiency is well-known, but with a stick of incense or so, he brought the young mandarin back to the tall and brilliant Cloud Palace.
At the entrance of the hall, there were more than a dozen teenagers standing in Lala, lazily looking at Jiang Xuan's figure coming from the royal horse, and there was a lot of noise in an instant.
"I heard there's another newcomer? I don't know what virtues are! ”
The subordinate officer said. This person is the holy daughter of the Baihua clan. ”
"The Baihua clan?"
"Didn't that disappear into the Demon Realm many years ago? What are you fighting about when you come back at this time? ”
"Indeed, the Baihua clan is no longer empty, and they can't afford to make any waves when they come."
"Hmph. Maybe we can compete with Minglang. The young man on the far left said in a strange way.
After saying that, there was a burst of laughter all around, and their eyes focused on the silent young man at the back.
"Minglang, won't you be angry when you hear Brother Tao say this about you?" A slender young man with a long body looked back at Mingming, his eyes full of gentleness.
Minglang still lowered his head, revealing the tip of his nose. Looking at the ground, as if he had heard nothing.
Everyone snorted coldly, and the young man also smiled slightly. Resolve his embarrassment, and then look at the temple gate.
Jiang Xuan came on horse, followed by the majestic soldiers, and the sound of horses' hooves became closer and closer. The number of people at the entrance of the main hall also increased. Behind the dozen or so young people, there were more subordinate officials in black costumes, all of whom were silent.
Jiang Xuan also looked at the scene at the entrance of the hall, and a little smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
These people, however, had some meaning, and the identities of the people in the rear were not determined, so they began to fight.
His gaze was at the back of the clear, a little more concerned. Why is he there?
Minglang has always been reluctant to participate in such a struggle for power and profit, and he knows this. Why is it that now, he will stand in a row to greet the Baihua Holy Maiden?
He was a little puzzled, but he couldn't ask a sound, so he stopped the horse with a sound.
Dismounted, looked at a young man at the front, stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
This person is the eldest son of the Juque clan, and he is the first crown prince to enter the Cloud Palace, and it stands to reason that he has the greatest possibility of seizing the throne, but......There are some comments faintly from the sect elders' side, saying that the Juque clan is brave and unscrupulous, and it may be inappropriate to serve as the demon king, which makes many people understand that the hope of the Juque clan to ascend the throne is very small.
It's just that no matter how small the chance is, this person is also the oldest among the crown princes, so he should be courteous before him.
Jiang Xuan's behavior made the young man very happy, he laughed, helped Jiang Xuan up, and said, "What about the holy woman that Commander Jiang brought back?" Let's meet! ”
The question was too direct, many people frowned, and Hou's subordinate officers in the rear glanced at each other, and they all shook their heads and said nothing.
"Hey, why didn't Commander Jiang speak?" The man continued to laugh heartily, looking behind the guards, his eyes full of curiosity.
Jiang Xuan looked at the subordinate officials not far away and asked softly, "What is the important matter for the subordinate officials to come here?" ”
"I'll pick you up."
"Who?"
"Baihua Holy Maiden."
"How can you be sure she is?"
"Before the old master left, he naturally taught me how to recognize her."
There was a sudden silence all around, and the young man at the head was furious, raised his foot and kicked behind him, "Okay, you Ji Min, Su Rili bowed down to His Royal Highness, but now he is turning his head to recognize the new master, I want to see, what is this holy daughter of the Baihua clan!" ”
Jiang Xuan was also stunned, then hugged Ji Min and said solemnly, "Master Ji, you can't help but be too anxious." ”
Ji Min smiled bitterly and didn't say much.
There was a loud sound in the back, and the young mandarin man walked slowly, his long dark green hair fluttering in the wind, his blue watery eyes looked over, the corners of his mouth moved, he looked at the young man at the head, and said, "Since Your Highness wants to see me, the young mandarin duck will not dare not see me." ”
Her eyes were as quiet as water, and when she looked deeper, they were like an abyss, and she couldn't see the bottom.
The young man strode over, approached her side, smiled flirtatiously, and said, "It's indeed a beauty, no wonder Ji Min can't forget it." ”
Shao Yuan's eyes were cold, and he looked at Ji Min with a bitter face behind him, and felt a little more annoyed in his heart.
"Your Highness, this joke is over." Shao Yuan's eyes flashed, and the corners of his lips raised.
"That's what I'm saying, how are you doing?"
The young mandarin duck lowered his head, stroked his hair, and remained silent for a long time.
The young man waited for a long time and had no answer, so he sneered and turned away.
"Ji Min, you have to keep your eyes open and see clearly! Is this woman worthy of your allegiance? ”
………
……
The long-lost balance of power in the Cloud Hall was quickly broken with the arrival of the young mandarin.
This beautiful woman is not as pure and cowardly as she imagined, and on the third day after His Royal Highness the patriarch of the Juque clan offended her at the beginning, the young man went to the sect elders to confirm his identity and came back.
For other crown princes. This woman with the old Ji Min of the Cloud Palace Pavilion standing behind her is like a sudden hurricane, bound to roll up a storm.
Many are prepared. Compete with it.
And the thoughts of despising this woman at the beginning quickly turned into ashes from the moment Juque broke his right hand.
Things have to start on a moonlit night, the night of the Red River is deep and terrible, in the darkness, the young mandarin walks in the corridor.
Juque got the news and immediately stepped forward to block the way. sneered at Shao Yuan, "The Baihua clan was expelled from the Red River for no reason, but your father is not virtuous?" ”
Shao Yuan looked over coldly. The turquoise eyes flashed a little fiercely.
"Seeing you like this, I also know that what I said is true, Ji Min will never forget you, I'm afraid it's just..."
"His Royal Highness Juque is cautious!" Shao Yuan interrupted her words loudly and shouted. "Now you and I are equal. What do you have in mind for slandering me in this way? Could it be that the Juque clan will only act on speculation, as rumored by the outside world, you are in the wilderness and do not know etiquette? ”
Juque was furious, and stepped forward to raise his hand to slap her, but before his hand fell, a ghostly figure appeared on his side. There was a snap, and the arm hung limply. He was shocked, angry and painful, looking at the young mandarin duck's smiling face, and yelled angrily.
The sound spread far away, and immediately alarmed the pro-health division, and when Jiang Xuan arrived, Juque was beaten very badly.
He was stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, as soon as he fought, he felt that this woman's strength was very tight, fortunately, Juque had been in the Great Wilderness for many years, and this little injury could not hurt him.
It's just that Juque was unloaded by a woman's arm, and he lost face a little, he blushed, looked at Jiang Xuan and the guards holding torches behind him, jumped to his feet angrily, and finally turned around when there were more and more people.
This matter is just a small beginning, Shao Yuan seems to be a little hedgehog, even after taking Juque, he began to provoke every crown prince in the Cloud Palace, intentionally or unintentionally, and every big or small dispute ended in her victory.
Every time Jiang Xuan came, he would always see the mockery at the corner of Shao Yuan's mouth, this woman's strength and mind were terrible, the troubles she picked were obviously calculated these times, and they were all taking advantage of the gap between his inspections, these days, none of them fell, and there was a lot of chickens and dogs jumping in the cloud hall, and the resentment was great, one or two began to reason with him, Jiang Xuan was so annoyed by these sons and brothers that he simply found a place where no one was, and sat and watched the sky.
He lay on the roof, looking at the flowing clouds in the sky, looking at the red light that gradually dissipated, and always felt that this time was a little weird.
Being in the Cloud Palace, I heard a lot of news, within the Red River, the Great Wilderness, Nanhe, Xiling, and Zhongzhou, all kinds of old clans began to appear, and these people came back strangely, and the Sect Elders Association has been very busy with these things recently, and there is little free time.
The old clan appeared silently, as if they had appeared somewhere, and he looked at the sky, and closed his eyes irritably, for some reason, he always felt a little apprehensive in his heart.
"Here you go." A voice sounded in his ears, and Jiang Xuan sat up abruptly and looked to his side vigilantly.
Minglang looked at him expressionlessly, holding a medicine bottle in his hand.
Jiang Xuan smiled suddenly, relaxed his mind, and lay down leisurely.
"Minglang, your injuries are healed?"
The corners of the young man's mouth were dark blue, especially conspicuous on his fair face.
Jiang Xuan was stunned and remembered the scene that day.
"I'll call my sister when I see you later."
“……”
"I don't understand"
“……”
"I'll let you know."
Shao Yuan smiled coldly, stepped forward and kicked him, the speed was very fast, the young man who didn't like to talk immediately fell to the ground, but he got up very quickly, Shao Yuan's eyes flashed, and he continued to attack, and the strength of his hand was not lower than that of any person, but Minglang was harder than any crown prince, no matter how he hit, he couldn't be defeated, even if the blood at the corner of his mouth was about to stain the clothes on his chest, he still stubbornly refused to speak, and even, didn't want to look at her.
"Why didn't you call her? Listening to Ji Min, she especially admires you. ”
Minglang's face sank and he looked at Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuanhe smiled, and felt that this question was a little strange, but he was not going to change the topic, he wanted to know where this young man insisted that he must be silent, and would rather be injured than speak.
Minglang glanced up at him, probably seeing his persistence, and said softly, "I... If she has a sister, she is not worthy. ”
Jiang Xuan took a sign and thought about it carefully.
"You Beiyuan...."
As soon as these two words came out, the young man's gaze was like a thousand years of ice, so cold that people couldn't speak.
Jiang Xuan smiled, brushed the term over, and continued, "Where did you come from, sister, why haven't I heard of it?" ”
The boy bowed his head and did not answer.
Jiang Xuan smiled helplessly, took the medicine bottle, and said in a low voice, "When you see that woman in the future, stay away, don't meet it in the end." ”
"Okay."
The young man replied, then sat down, and the two looked at the sky together.
…………
Xiao Banyue flew by, the situation in the Cloud Hall has been immediately high, the young mandarin duck sits on half of the Cloud Palace, and has begun to gradually enter the sight of the Sect Elders, recently, she has begun to deal with some matters of the demon clan.
And in the Red River, the handling of the old tribes in various places has gradually accelerated the schedule.
Among these old clans, many of them are big demons from a hundred years ago, and they are very relied on by the clan elders, while others choose to hide from the world.
One day, the young mandarin brought back a dryad.
According to legend, he is a great wise man of the Xiling clan, but his face is ugly, and he follows behind the young mandarin, and he is more beautiful, and the ugly is more and more ugly.
Along the way, many people talked about it, even when Jiang Xuan saw it, he also felt that something was wrong, and suddenly brought back such a strange tree demon, if something happened, the sect elder would be the first to ask for the guilt, it was him
It's just that Shao Yuan's momentum is in full swing, so he threw a sign at him without thinking about it.
The big word on it is very glaring.
Jiang Xuan reluctantly retreated, allowing her to take the tree demon into the Cloud Palace.
Anyway, since the sect elder will favor her so much and stop her without authorization, I am afraid that it is his fault again.
………
In the main hall, the young man looked at the old locust tree with a smile on his face, pointed to the seat on his side, and said, "Please take a seat." ”
The old ghost glanced at her quietly, and then said, "The half-moon period has passed, and I came as promised." ”
The young mandarin shook his head and said with satisfaction, "What, are you surprised to see me now?" ”
On that day, she was just a nobody in the dense forest, even if she had the blood of the demon clan, few of her subordinates listened to her summons, and now, she has become one of the princes of the Cloud Palace, that position, within reach, even those old immortals of the Sect Elders Association also depend on her face.
The old ghost saw that she was proud, and it was not easy to strike, so he just said, "I came here this time, but what do you want me to do?" ”
"Naturally, the great cause can be expected, but I can't wait, it's better to take it myself!" Her eyes were full of coldness, looking at the Youyou Hall, the corners of her lips were a little more mocking, "The strength of the demon clan today is not as good as before, even the brute strength of the Juque clan can't compare to me, and the more you live, the more you go back!" ”
The old ghost's eyes flashed, and he said softly, "There are indeed some problems with this, in the past hundred years, many old friends have disappeared, and these people left behind seem to be an empty shell, I always feel..."
"What do you think!" Shao Yuan looked over and asked in a cold voice, "Are you afraid?" (To be continued......)
