Chapter 55: Marquis Wen Xi
The first rays of light in the morning paint everything with a layer of gold.
The young man slowly walked out of the door, he looked at the rising sun that gradually erupted from the sky, and took a deep breath, he knew that today was an important day, because today, the Qianran Underground Palace was about to open!
The young man took off his shirt, revealing his dark and sturdy upper body, he took a bucket of water, scooped a scoop, splashed his head, and began to chant in his mouth, "Get up in the morning, bathe my body with cold water, wash away the filth of yesterday, and welcome a new day with a new self!" β
The habit of getting up early on time every day and bathing in cold water has never stopped, regardless of cold or heat.
The boy is Yinglingyue, the son of Cangguo, the first place in the martial arts competition of the Qingcang Society!
After Ying Lingyue rinsed off the cold water, his whole body was red, and he glanced at his strong muscles with satisfaction, and then put on his coat.
Ying Lingyue's figure is not tall, but the muscles of the whole body are very tight, and the knotted muscle lines on the arms show a masculine beauty.
"Ling Yue, it's better to get up so early, it's still some time before entering the Qianran Underground Palace." Suddenly, a voice came.
Ying Lingyue turned around and looked at her, taken aback, "Why did Master Hou arrive?" β
The person who came was an elegant-looking man in white, with a fair face and a very young look, but he had two carefully trimmed beards on his lips, and the look in his eyes was not something that young people could have.
The man in white looked at Ying Lingyue and smiled slightly, "The 'Four Princes' Association is about to open, and it just so happens that this time the lord of the country heard that you won the first place in the Qingcang Club martial arts competition, and he was so happy that he specially ordered me to come and see you." After saying that, he took a few steps closer and whispered, "Your father is really happy, although he is thousands of miles away from you, I can see that he has always been very concerned about you." β
Ying Lingyue was stunned for a moment and said, "I also miss my father, but I am in Jinyang, and I can't advance filial piety in his old man's house." Domestic affairs are all annoying to Wen Xihou to share his father's worries. β
The man in white nodded, "That's nature." β
This man in white is the minister of Cangguo, Wen Xi Hou Ying Wenquan.
As He Nuo listed in the Qianran School Palace that day, there are four very remarkable people in the current Jinyang Dynasty, the Marquis of Ningxiang in the Jinyang Dynasty, the Marquis of Wenxi of Cangguo, the Marquis of Jingwei of Yan, and the Marquis of Shuyang of Weiguo. Ning Xianghou's methods have been obvious to all, and at this moment, Wen Xi Hou in front of Ying Lingyue is a person who is as famous as Ning Xianghou.
In addition to the current state of Lan State, there is no "son", the other four people will hold the "Four Sons Meeting" from time to time, aiming to take precautions against the current crises that may arise in the world, and this time the "Four Sons Meeting" was held in Jinyang, and the theme was to target the increasingly frequent snooping actions of the Yue Kingdom in the south.
The time of the "Four Princes' Meeting" was originally held after the Qingcang Meeting, but the lord of Cangguo heard that his beloved son had won the first place in the martial arts competition and had the qualifications to enter the Qianran Underground Palace, so he immediately ordered Wen Xihou to come in advance to assist Ying Lingyue.
"Does Father have anything you want me to bring?" Ying Lingyue asked.
Wen Xihou nodded, handed over a letter, and said, "The lord of the country attaches great importance to this matter and deliberately writes it himself. β
Ying Lingyue respectfully took it, because although he is a prince, although Wen Xihou looks young, his actual age is not small, and he belongs to his uncle more according to his seniority, and more importantly, Wen Xihou is resourceful and proficient in the art of war, among the four sons of Jinyang, the remaining three have military positions, Wen Xihou is the only one who was selected as the fourth prince by virtue of his civilian status, he was a military advisor during the war, strategizing, winning thousands of miles away, and as the minister of state in peacetime, he was committed to the development of Cangguo, and had a very high prestige in Cangguo, and was the first person in the Cangguo army, Cangxi Dadu protects the dark night and is called the twin stars of Cangguo, and jointly assists Cangguo to govern the country.
Ying Lingyue knew that with the assistance of Marquis Wen Xi this time, he would definitely be able to gain more in the Qianran Underground Palace, but when he unfolded the letter, he found that in addition to some greetings, there was only one most critical piece of information:
"The ancient jade with the word 'soil' written on it in the Qianran Dungeon, you must get it."
Ying Lingyue didn't understand what she meant, Wen Xihou took a few steps forward and whispered, "The implication behind this, the lord of the country is worried that it is not safe to write on paper, let me tell you in person." β
Ying Lingyue looked at Wen Xihou and listened to what he said.
β¦β¦
"Kiyohei."
Ning Xianghou looked at his student and waved his hand.
At this time, it was close to noon, and the Qianran Underground Palace was about to open, and He Qingping was making a final farewell to his teacher.
"Is there anything else the teacher has to ask you for?" He Qingping asked respectfully.
Ning Xianghou said with a smile, "I should say, I have told you before, Qianran Dungeon has nine floors, if you can reach the sixth layer this time, I will be very pleased." β
"Qingping will definitely live up to the trust." He Qingping nodded.
"Be careful of the one named He Nuo, looking at his deeds, it should have a lot to do with the Dragon Camp." Ning Xianghou emphasized.
He Qingping remembered the person who defeated him in the martial arts, gritted his teeth, and said, "I know." β
"There is one more thing..."Marquis Ning Xiang instructed, "I just learned the news that Marquis Wen Xi has come to Jinyang City. β
"Oh? The scheming minister of Cangguo? For the world-famous four sons of Jinyang, He Qingping is also like thunder.
Ning Xianghou was a little dazed, "Yes." Among the four sons, he is the one I am most afraid of, the Jingwei Marquis of Yan seems to be mighty, but his temperament is too upright, such a person can fight, but the temple is calculating, he is not my opponent; As for the Weiguo Shuyang Hou, he has been obsessed with ghost valleys and thick black strategies all these years, and his yin qi is too heavy, although he will not suffer in the small sections, but in the big picture, his vision is inevitably narrow, but it is Wen Xihou, a seemingly weak man, who has repeatedly surprised me. β
"Kiyohei." Ning Xianghou looked at his student and said, "One day, if you can ascend to the position, for such a person, if you can't make friends, you must kill him without hesitation, otherwise, he will only give you one blow after another." β
"Someday ascend to the throne of God." He Qingping repeated this sentence repeatedly, but he thought in his heart, "I don't know who was sitting in the queen's seat at that time?" He Qingping thought of the girl with big eyes, and a warmth swelled in his heart, "Yanxi, where are you?" β
Since Mu Yanxi disappeared, He Qingping also went all out to investigate, but found nothing, but was reprimanded by Ningxiang Hou.
This surprised He Qingping, because since he became a student of Ningxianghou, his performance has been excellent, and he was regarded by Ningxianghou as his proud protΓ©gΓ©, don't say blame, he didn't even say a few words, but just because he spent his effort to find Mu Yanxi, he was actually blamed a lot.
It is said that according to Ning Xianghou's previous arrangement, Mu Yanxi has already had a marriage contract with him, and he is his wife who has not passed the door, and he should be more attentive, not to mention that Mu Yanxi's "spiritual eye" is an important part of Ningxiang Hou's strategy, but this time Ning Xianghou actually ignored it, which made He Qingping want to break his head, and he didn't know what the reason was.
