Thank you very much for the pink tickets of Sister Bu U, President God, DVE12, LDN Gambling ID, High Flying and Flying, and Lnedezu

Lingdong was grateful, and bowed for the first hundred years

The twelve horsemen kept passing through the city gate all the way and went straight to Xu's mansion, startling the soldiers guarding the gate for a while, and a small group of men and horses followed the twelve.

These twelve people are Xu Tianwolf and others who rushed back to the imperial capital from the first line of heaven. The first line of heaven was not far from the imperial capital, and the twelve people found that Xu Ziyan had regained his heartbeat on the second day after leaving the first line of heaven. Everyone was overjoyed, and began to seek medical treatment nearby. But after anyone looked at Xu Ziyan, they all shook their heads and left. So, everyone hurried back to the imperial capital within two days, hoping that the imperial doctor of the imperial capital could cure Xu Ziyan.

Twelve people dismounted in front of the mansion, did not stop, and rushed into the Xu mansion like the wind. The city defense team that was chasing after saw twelve people entering the Xu Mansion, and quickly turned their horses and ran back. Just kidding, who dares to provoke the people of the Xu Mansion, let alone just break into the city gate, or trample them to death with a horse, who dares to speak.

The house was in chaos, and after some busyness, the imperial doctor left, leaving only one sentence:

"Xu Ziyan won't live for seven days."

"No, it won't"

Gong Shun's body shook and he fainted. Xu Tianwolf hurriedly supported Gong Shun. For a moment, everyone in the room was silent.

It was drizzling outside, and a lone lamp was swaying inside.

Gong Shun had been guarding Xu Ziyan for two days, his eyes were red, and opposite him was Xu Lan. No matter how everyone persuaded Gong Shun, Gong Shun sat motionless on the chair, looking at Xu Ziyan on the bed fixedly. Everyone had no choice but to let Xu Lan and other girls take turns to accompany Gong Shun to take care of Xu Ziyan. At this moment, Gong Shun finally couldn't resist the invasion of tiredness, and fell asleep on the table.

Xu Tianwolf had already had a deep talk with the patriarch of the Xu family, and was recruited by Emperor Chen to have a deep talk with the emperor in secret, and then returned to the Xu Mansion.

The Xu family, which has been handed down from ancient times, attaches great importance to the family bloodline. When he heard the crown prince Chen Dong and his son Xu Ba talk about the whole thing, and knew that Xu Ziyan's realm of soul destroying and dragon and phoenix ming was higher than the three elders sent by the family to save the prince, he attached more importance to Xu Tianwolf and the others.

This attention, but I was pleasantly surprised to find the cultivation of Xu Tianwolf and others. As a result, he paid more attention to Xu Tianwolf and others. It was only because of Xu Ziyan's relationship that the patriarch of the Xu family was not in a hurry to discuss matters in the family with Xu Tianwolf and others. Instead, a courtyard was assigned to Xu Tianwolf and the others, just to let them rest there.

"Bang, Bang, Bang" was heard in the distance.

"It's been the third watch, and it's been the fifth day of the time on the way, I don't know if the purple smoke of the road can survive." Xu Lan looked at Xu Ziyan on the bed, and then looked at Gong Shun lying on the table, with sorrow in her heart.

"I hope so," Xu Lan sighed again.

Gong Shun woke up suddenly, glanced at Xu Ziyan on the bed, his eyes revealed disappointment, and then silently watched the oil lamp swaying.

The rain stopped, and a ray of sunlight shone in through the window.

Gong Shun and Xu Lan were shocked, and their eyes looked at Xu Ziyan on the bed at the same time. The two of them just sat there stiffly looking at Xu Ziyan, and no one stepped forward to investigate Xu Ziyan's situation, for fear that the cruel reality would appear in front of their eyes too quickly.

Eventually, Xu Lan stood up and walked to the bedside. put his hand on Xu Ziyan's chest, suddenly withdrew his hand, leaned over on Xu Ziyan's body, and put his ear against Xu Ziyan's chest. After a while, she stood up, looked at Gong Shun, who was sitting in a chair and was looking at her with longing eyes, and said softly:

"Purple Smoke, She's Alive"

"Really" Gong Shun's fists were clenched tightly, and blood was cut out of his palms by his fingernails.

The door was gently pushed open, and the crown prince Chen Dong and Xu Tianwolf and others walked in. Gong Shun turned his head to look at the crown prince Chen Dong, and said expectantly:

"The Imperial Doctor has a solution?"

Prince Chen Dong shook his head and said softly:

The imperial doctor said that Ziyan's condition was very strange, the meridians on her body were broken seven or eight times out of ten, and her skin was broken, and she had already lost her vitality, and there was no reason to live for seven days.

At this time, Gong Shun's face was pale, tears were flowing non-stop, his shoulders were constantly twitching, but he refused to make a sound.

"Senior Brother Gong, you go and rest for a while," Xu Tianwolf said softly.

Gong Shun looked at Xu Ziyan who was lying on the bed, and said in a trembling voice but firmly:

"I'm going to stay."

Everyone was silent. In the end, Xu Tianwolf said softly:

"Senior Brother Gong, the prince came today to bring a piece of news."

"What's the news?" Gong Shun Muran asked.

"Brother Qi is not dead"

"What?" Gong Shun's eyes flashed, and he asked excitedly, "Then how is he now?" Where is he? ”

Seeing Gong Shun's excited appearance, Xu Tianwolf's heart tightened, and secretly said that Gong Shun still seems to hate Xu Qi? In fact, Xu Tianwolf also blamed Xu Qi at this time, and he also blamed himself. If he had firmly stood on Xu Ziyan's side at that time, how could he have the current situation.

Similarly, he was also dissatisfied with Gong Shun, and he didn't see you Gong Shun come out to oppose it at the beginning, but after waiting for something to happen, he completely put the responsibility on Xu Qi's head. Besides, Ziyan is a member of our Xu family, and you Gong Shun is someone from Ziyan. So, the voice became colder:

"Brother Qi, he didn't die in the first line of heaven, but was caught by Yang Guo."

"Caught"

Gong Shun muttered to himself in a low voice. Gong Shun and Xu Qi are brothers, and they are naturally closer than Xu Qi and Xu Tianwolf. At the beginning, he was angry and sad to the extreme, so he kicked Xu Qi. By this time, I had already regretted it in my heart.

"Yang Guo has sent an envoy." At this time, the crown prince Chen Dong said in a deep voice.

"How?" Gong Shun's eyes gathered, staring at the crown prince Chen Dong.

"Yang Guo wants to exchange Xu Qi with me Chen Guo."

"Exchange for what?" Gong Shun frowned slightly, he really didn't know what Yang Guo wanted to do.

"Yang Guo wants our Xu family to take action to treat their hundreds of thousands of troops in the Jinmen River."

At this time, a voice sounded at the door, and everyone looked for prestige, but saw the head of the Xu family walking in slowly, and continued in a low voice:

"Hundreds of thousands of people in the Jinmenjiang military camp have been lured into a deep sleep by the destruction of souls, and now it has been five days, if it continues, it will not take a few more days, and the hundreds of thousands of troops will all die. Only our Xu family's Yin Gong can save them. Yang Guo wanted to exchange one person for hundreds of thousands of lives. ”

Gong Shun's gaze became sharp, and there was no look of exhaustion at all. Staring closely at the crown prince Chen Dong opposite, he said:

"What did the emperor say?"

The crown prince Chen Dong shook his head, sighed softly and said, "Father will not agree. ”

Gong Shun's body was already filled with murderous intent, and he looked at the head of the Xu family, and asked in a deep voice:

"What does the patriarch mean?"

The patriarch also sighed and said softly: "As far as the country is concerned, losing Xu Qi alone, and hundreds of thousands of enemies die, this is what any emperor would choose." As the four major families of Chen Guo, they should also focus on the overall situation. It's just that you are a member of the Xu family, and Xu Qi is willing to block the enemy with the strength of one person, in exchange for the safe return of His Royal Highness the Prince, if you disregard Xu Qi's life like this, it will also hurt the hearts of the courtiers. What's more, you are all from the Vast Continent, and it is really difficult to see if you can return to the Vast Continent. ”

Gong Shun stood up from the chair, bowed deeply to the patriarch, and said in a deep voice:

"Patriarch, except for Ziyan, none of our people can play that sound, I implore the patriarch to send one person to rescue Xu Qi with us for the sake of belonging to the same bloodline."

The patriarch looked at Gong Shun deeply for a long time before he sighed:

"Gong Shun, now this matter is nothing more than two paths. One is to give up Xu Qi, so that the patriarch can assure you that you will get the best cultivation environment. ”

Gong Shun was about to speak, but was stopped by the patriarch raising his hand, and continued: "The second way is to agree to Chen Guo's conditions, but in this way, it will inevitably provoke the king's monstrous anger. It is likely that the Xu family will be completely wiped out. Gong Shun, how do you choose now? ”

Gong Shun was stunned there for a while, and the patriarch had already made it very clear that if the Xu family really ignored the holy order and secretly sent someone to Gong Shun and them to rescue Xu Qi, I am afraid that the Xu family would really not be able to resist the king's anger. In order to save a child and die a family, Gong Shun can't do such a thing. But it was impossible for him to give up Xu Qi, and in the end, Gong Shun gritted his teeth and bowed deeply to the patriarch:

"Thank you to the patriarch for your hospitality these days, today I will say goodbye to the patriarch, and I just hope that the patriarch will tell me the specific location of Xu Qi."

The patriarch stared at Gong Shun, and finally chuckled: "Gong Shun, you want to save Xu Qi with your own strength. ”

"It's to ask the patriarch to be fulfilled," Gong Shun knelt in front of the patriarch with a pout.

"Alas, Gong Shun, it's not that I don't help you. Sending an elder with you is no different from going against the will of God. Besides, the emperor will not let you have a chance to leave. ”

Gong Shun tightened his fists, raised his head, and looked at the patriarch with anger in his eyes. The patriarch's words were obvious that Emperor Chen was already on guard against them. Gong Shun's heart moved, and he looked at the crown prince Chen Dong who was standing next to him. Chen Dong smiled helplessly and said:

"It's useless, even if you arrest me, you can't threaten my father. Father would rather me die than give up what he decided because of one of his sons. Don't forget, the father had many sons. ”

"Patriarch, is there really no way not to skip words. Xu Tianluo looked at the patriarch coldly and said, "If there is really no way, please see the relationship between the same Xu family and don't get involved in this matter." To save Xu Qi is what we must do, even if we die, we can't survive. ”

The patriarch closed his eyes slightly, and finally sighed lightly, opened his eyes, and said in a low voice:

"Actually, it's not impossible"

If you have a pink ticket, give it to your comrades-in-arms, the position on the list is really helpless
