Chapter 23

What should come will come eventually, in fact, Li Xunlian is looking forward to this day.

The name of the prince is quite famous. In the people, he is regarded as a good heir to the future Ming Jun. In the rivers and lakes, he is recognized as one of the three geniuses of Qingxiao. In terms of personality, Li Xunlian admires this decisive and domineering personality very much. Therefore, Li Xunlian is very much looking forward to meeting this person.

Even if you put everything aside and don't do anything else, at least you have to ask him about the mystery of the galaxy. This alone is enough reason for Li Xunlian to go to the appointment.

It's just that the eunuch's words made Li Xunlian a little displeased, just a subordinate, how can he serve the royal family and look at people?

In terms of identity, he Li Xunlian is at least on an equal footing with the prince!

Of course, Li Xunlian would not be serious with a eunuch, and after he responded, he let the eunuch leave.

In order to avoid everyone's worries, Li Xunlian didn't tell the truth to the elder sister and others, but only said that he wanted to go to the hematite mine to see Hu Wan, and go back when he went.

Everyone naturally did not doubt him, and told them to go early and return early, and they all went their separate ways.

The prince said that there was an audience at noon, and Li Xunlian still had some time after coming to the imperial city, so he went to the bun shop again, but the result was still disappointing, it seems that after the last meeting with Tongyouren, this person has left.

After a casual stroll, until noon, Li Xunlian went to the Longyou Hall alone.

Longyou Hall is the prince's bedroom, but this Zhu Tong doesn't like the noise of the palace, and deliberately built the bedroom in a remote place in the west of the imperial city, and Qingxiao Emperor is also up to him and does not interfere.

It is said that the royal family has no family affection, but this is not true for Qingxiao Emperor and Zhu Tong and Zhu Xi. Emperor Qingxiao doesn't like women, and there is only one queen in his life, but the queen died early, leaving only these two children, which is why Emperor Qingxiao indulges them so much.

Besides, Emperor Qingxiao only has this one son, and there is no dispute at all over the succession to the throne, so those palace calculations will not happen.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Xunlian had already come to the periphery of the Longyou Palace, which was nominally a palace, but in fact it was even more magnificent than King Cheng's mansion.

The guards here are very well-behaved, not like the eunuch surnamed Tao yesterday, full of the aura of dogs fighting people. Li Xun even reported his name, and someone led him in front, and it didn't take long to meet the prince Zhu Tong.

At this moment, Zhu Tong was dancing the sword in the martial arts arena, and he seemed to be blind to Li Xunlian's arrival. But Princess Xi, who accompanied him to dance the sword, saw Li Xunlian, and a trace of cruelty and resentment unique to women flashed in her charming eyes.

The sword dance lasted for a long time, and I have to say that whether it was Zhu Tong's swordsmanship or the sword in his hand, it was very eye-catching, and people couldn't help but want to shield his identity as a prince, and simply cheer for his swordsmanship and sword.

"Out, it is like nine days of training and falling in the air. Shou is like the vast sea that encompasses infinity. The prince has a deep kendo attainment. Seeing the highlights, Li Xunlian couldn't help but admire.

Hearing this, the prince's eyes were full of waves, and he didn't even look at Li Xunlian. But Princess Xi rolled her phoenix eyes and snorted coldly: "Don't look at your identity, the imperial brother dances the sword, how can an ant like you be able to comment?"

Li Xunlian didn't answer, he came today because he respected the prince's reputation, and the prince was arrogant, and he could understand it.

Therefore, before the prince himself opened his mouth to express his attitude, it was not impossible to tolerate Princess Xi for a few points, but there must be a degree, and the weight of the degree is in Li Xunlian's heart, once it passes, there will be no room to go back.

And what he is waiting for now is whether the prince Zhu Tong understands the control of "degree", if he understands, I believe he will speak soon. If you don't understand, if you blindly let Princess Xi be presumptuous, Li Xunlian will never continue to tolerate it.

"Presumptuous, this palace has made it clear that this sword-dancing person is the emperor's brother, that is, the current prince, how dare you not kneel?" Princess Xi saw that Li Xunlian was silent, and she became more and more inched.

In fact, it is not accurate to say that she has to inch in, after all, in Princess Xi's heart, Li Xunlian is a casual situation today, she can play as she wants.

Li Xunlian sneered and still didn't answer.

At this time, with a long roar and the sword returned to its sheath, Zhu Tong finally spoke: "Imperial sister, you don't say much, my brother has something to ask him." ”

Precise, the prince's control of the degree is very precise. If he let Princess Xi say more than half a word, Li Xunlian's heart would be broken.

"Prince, excuse me. Li Xunlian bowed slightly, this gift was not given to Zhu Tong's status as a prince, but out of respect for a warrior who bravely explored the galaxy regardless of his own safety and wanted to benefit the people.

However, I still didn't kneel.

There seemed to be a strange light flashing in Zhu Yan's eyes, perhaps in his opinion, Li Xunlian did not kneel, but he was neither arrogant nor humble. If this is the case, for him, who is used to seeing flattery, he will also have a good impression of Li Xunlian.

However, the majesty of the royal family needs a reasonable explanation.

"Don't you know who this palace is?" Zhu Tong stood with his hands in his hands, and there was a slight meaning in his tone.

"When the prince of the dynasty. Li Xunlian replied calmly, the royal family is orthodox, whether it is a prince or a princess, they all call themselves the palace.

When he said this, Li Xunlian had already straightened up, there was a gap between him and the prince's height, the prince was eight feet tall, tall and mighty, and Li Xunlian was six feet, which belonged to normal height. But although he was looking up at the moment, there was no hint of self-esteem in his eyes.

"Now that you know, why don't you bow down? This sentence has no meaning of questioning, but more of coercion.

The cold wind swept by, and the atmosphere seemed to be a little colder in an instant.

"Seeing the emperor and not kneeling, let alone the prince. Li Xunlian still replied calmly, without the meaning of being angry, just telling the truth.

Zhu Tong nodded slightly when he heard this, his tone seemed to suddenly become playful, and said, "It turns out that it is really a person from the inn, no wonder my father does not allow Xi'er to provoke you." ”

Li Xunlian was noncommittal, but he didn't have the kind of pride that came from his strong background. In his opinion, the identity of the innkeeper is a mission and inheritance.

"Well, since you're from the inn, it's easier. Zhu Tong suddenly stroked his palms and smiled lightly, and said, "In your opinion, who is more powerful, the inn or the imperial court?"

Li Xunlian really didn't expect this question. To tell the truth, whether it is Qingxiao Emperor or the big shopkeeper, they are very shy about this sensitive issue, not that they are afraid of each other, but that they are unwilling to compete on this matter, which is stronger and which is weak, and there is no basis for what they say, but if they really want to see each other, I am afraid that Kyushu will not be at peace.

But Zhu Tong asked so!

In an instant, Li Xunlian knew the deep meaning of the other party's words. When Zhu Tong succeeds to the throne, there can only be one order in Kyushu, either the imperial court or the inn. This superiority must be divided.

And today he asked Li Xunlian about this, that is, a declaration of war, from now on, you and I have not yet taken power, so let's divide them first.

"The prince is impulsive, the coexistence of yin and yang is the root of all things, the imperial court is dominant, and there is no benefit if it is not seen. Li Xunlian was very calm, he knew that Zhu Tong was an ambitious person, and he was even more clear about the difference between being young and vigorous and longing for dictatorship.

Undoubtedly, Zhu Tong accounts for both of these points, but at least for now, the former is more. In his opinion, Emperor Qingxiao's refusal to let Princess Xiong provoke Li Xunlian was nothing more than hindering the power of the inn, which was a manifestation of anger and impulsiveness, but I also have to say that Zhu Tong still had the intention of destroying the inn in his bones, but if there was no such thing, it would not be so strong.

But Li Xunlian can distinguish between the two things, whether it is Zhu Tong or Princess Xi, in Li Xunlian's eyes, it is just an ordinary grievance. If the roles are reversed, the solution he chooses must be to put aside his identity background and deal with it in an ordinary way.

Going a little deeper, even if the inn had the ability to subvert the dynasty in an instant, they wouldn't do it. Because they only follow morality, it doesn't matter whether they control Kyushu alone or not. And to tell the truth, there are no people in the inn who are good at governing the world, and with the existence of the imperial family, Kyushu will be more peaceful.

"Oh, according to your meaning, this palace should follow the example of my father and let you act recklessly in Kyushu?" Zhu Tong raised his eyebrows coldly and said in a cold voice.

"Why do you want to say it recklessly, although the people in the inn have killed countless people, but none of the souls under the knife have died in vain. Li Xunlian also had to lose his patience, he thought that the prince knew that righteousness was just a bit arbitrary, but he didn't expect to see it this time, he was such a person who didn't understand the overall situation.

"If you say that you are not dying in vain, you are not dying in vain, if I kill you today, and only say to the innkeeper that you are not dying in vain, you are really not dying in vain?" The chill in Zhu Yan's words became more and more intense.

Hearing this, Li Xunlian also completely chilled his face, and tried to theorize several times, that is respect not fear, you are blindly aggressive, what else is there to say.

"I killed people in the inn, since I killed them, then they should be killed, if one day, you Zhu Tong will not be tolerated by morality...... Kill it right!"

The voice is like iron, and the words are like nails, which is the limit of the degree, and it is also the determination of the inn's position.

I thought that after saying this, Zhu Tong would immediately turn his face, but he didn't expect the latter to suddenly stroke his palm and laugh, "Okay, I really didn't misread you!"

Li Xunlian was a little confused when he said this, what do you mean that I really didn't misunderstand you, and I talked about it for a long time, you are the same as your father, you are here to test me?

Seeing Li Xunlian's expression, Zhu Tong smiled again: "The previous words were nothing more than a test to see if you are worthy of the name of the innkeeper, but now it seems that it is as my father said." To be honest, at first, this palace didn't believe that you dared to come alone, and also thought that you offended the imperial sister, just relying on the power behind you, but now, it is this palace that looks at people narrowly. ”

"But ......" said, Zhu Tong changed his words and said: "There are two things that this palace must explain to you, first, the position of the inn's chief treasurer must be inherited by you in the future." This palace knows that there is fierce competition within your inn, and as for whether you can inherit the power, it depends on your ability. ”

"To be honest, the other innkeepers have all had a relationship, but they are either not right-hearted, or they are not strong-willed, and they are embarrassed. If they control the inn, I am afraid that it will be harmful to the common people. So, if you can't, the first thing you will do after Hongu succeeds to the throne is to destroy the inn. ”

"Yes, destroy the inn!"

As soon as the prince's words fell, there was a voice of echo outside the door, which sounded very familiar.

"Your Royal Highness is majestic, like a mountain, just a little inn, how dare you go against the royal court, it should be destroyed, it should be destroyed!"

Destroy the inn!

This is said to be domineering and mighty, but there are not many people in the world who dare to say this, and there are no people who can do it, even if it is the royal family.

Zhu Tong is quite qualified to speak like this, after all, he will inherit the unification in the future, and his own strength is also outstanding. But even so, you can hear that this is a half-joke.

And this person who echoed was obviously flattering, and it was estimated that he only heard the last sentence of the prince's words, so he spoke rashly.

But he didn't know how ridiculous this sentence came out of his mouth. To exaggerate, among these behemoth forces, his background is not as good as even a feather.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked sideways, but saw a figure turning into the arch on the west side, dressed luxuriously, with a dragon embroidered with gold threads.

Princess Xi's face was overjoyed, and the person who came was none other than Prince Zhu Cheng, who was in cahoots with her.

She had promised Zhu Cheng to rectify Li Xunlian well, and she had her own face involved, so she listened to the meaning of the emperor's brother's words, and it seemed that she didn't hate Li Xunlian very much, and was worried about how to fan the flames, so Zhu Cheng came as promised.

You must know that in the eyes of Princess Xi, this Zhu Cheng, whether he is smart or eloquent, belongs to the upper echelons, and he is a troublemaker who is not a small expert, with him, presumably the imperial brother will definitely attack Li Xunlian today.

Li Xunlian naturally knew who it was, and from Zhu Cheng's opening, he could hear his identity, but in his opinion, Zhu Cheng, a bad bastard, was so stupid that he took the initiative to stretch out his face three times and twice to beg for a beating.

couldn't help but smile and looked at Zhu Cheng.

Zhu Cheng was very afraid of Li Xunlian, but he thought that with the prince in charge today, this son should not dare to be presumptuous. So he mustered up the courage to glared at Li Xunlian angrily, and then flattered the prince: "The royal brother bravely explored the galaxy, this time is a few years, the younger brother admires it very much, a few days ago, I heard the triumph of the imperial brother, but I was worried that the imperial brother was busy with affairs, so I didn't dare to disturb." Today, Her Royal Highness the princess said that you are free, and the courtiers will immediately rush over, not to mention anything else for the time being, and let the courtiers bow to you on behalf of the people of the world. ”

Hey, I'm here for the time!

Saying that, Zhu Cheng bent down deeply, and his appearance was really like a loyal minister who cared about the people.

Zhu Tong snorted coldly, and his disdain was overflowing. Although he has been away for several years, he is well aware of the movements of the DPRK and China. King Cheng's unscrupulous heart has always been disliked by him, Zhu Cheng is not only a gentleman, but also has a lot of gossip with the royal sister, how can he look down on Zhu Cheng.

Ignoring it anymore, Zhu Tong turned his eyes to Li Xunlian again, and continued the previous topic and said: "What I just said is one thing, and the other is related to the imperial sister. ”

Li Xunlian knew that the main topic was coming, so he didn't answer and waited for the following.

At this time, the north wind was getting colder, and the big locust tree in the east corner of the martial arts field was falling leaves, Zhu Tong pinched a floating leaf casually, and said: "To tell the truth, the palace can see through, the person is in the world, the identity background is just vain, only family and friendship are fundamental, just like this leaf falling, that is, the locust tree has no ability to resist the autumn cold, it is not solid at all, and it will wither naturally." ”

Speaking of this, he paused, looked directly at Li Xunlian, and said: "But this palace is confident and capable of protecting his family, putting aside the entanglement of royal status and power, I am still an elder brother, and my sister is being bullied, no matter whether it is in order, I can't sit idly by." ”

Indeed, it is human nature to choose between right and wrong and your loved ones. Li Xunlian replied calmly, as far as matters are concerned, he will not have a negative opinion of this person because Zhu Tong wants to act for Zhu Xi.

"Hmph, you say this just to remind His Royal Highness that justice should come first. Zhu Cheng really lived up to Princess Xi's expectations and began to provoke.

Hearing this, Zhu Tong and Li Xun swept away their eyes and said in unison: "You don't have the right to speak!"

Be rendered speechless......

Zhu Cheng blinked very "innocently", and then turned to look at Princess Xi, his eyebrows jumped, as if he was asking for help.

"Brother Huang, my little sister was slandered by him with the word 'dirty' that day, which damaged the prestige of the royal family, and even wanted to die to show her innocence afterwards, thanks to Zhu Cheng's many consolations, otherwise when you come back this time, where can you still see your sister. Princess Xi sobbed as she spoke, and her acting skills were really superb.

"Isn't it, this fang almost killed Her Royal Highness the princess, but it violated the rules and committed chaos, which is not tolerated by the world, and it is the first to show the public. Zhu Cheng fanned the flames, and he looked righteous and awe-inspiring.

Zhu Tong sneered, how could he not count what his sister was like. It is undeniable that in the open and secret battle with Li Xunlian, my sister is the loser, but right and wrong are at ease in the hearts of the people.

However, you Zhu Cheng want to take this opportunity to make waves, don't you treat this palace as a fool!

"In this way, do you hate this person deeply?" Zhu Tong put his hand on Zhu Cheng's shoulder, and without giving him a chance to speak, he said: "In this case, then this palace will give you a chance to perform." Today, he will hand it over to you to dispose of, and if you can correct the Fa, it will be a great achievement for you. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Cheng's face turned pale. I tried to use the prince's hand to calculate Li Xunlian, but in the end, I tossed myself in, what is the reason!

Looking around, there were many guards, but all of them were guards of the Dragon You Palace, and he couldn't move. Look at Li Xunlian again, he beat himself violently in the palace that day, and now two or three months have passed, and his cultivation will definitely go further......

"That...... Brother Huang, let's see if it's ......."

"What, don't you want to contribute to the royal family, or what you just said is just flattering?" Zhu Tong snorted coldly and put pressure.

When Princess Xi saw this situation, she was anxious, and quickly grabbed the prince's arm, and said coquettishly: "Brother, as you said, this is our family matter, and only if you take action in person can you solve the hatred of the little sister being humiliated." ”

"Don't worry, my brother will definitely not sit idly by and ignore this matter, but since Zhu Cheng is so hearted, this palace should live up to his wishes. ”

After speaking, Zhu Tong pulled Princess Xi back a few steps, and the meaning was already obvious - don't talk nonsense, let's do it.

The black north wind swept the fallen leaves on the ground, floating up, Zhu Cheng glanced at Li Xunlian, and his mood was even sadder than the withered and helpless fallen leaves.

"Damn, you have to get out of it today, otherwise you will not only be displeased with Princess Xi, but you will also be embarrassed in front of the prince!"

Zhu Cheng gritted his teeth and shouted: "Wu is a wicked person who has violated the royal family, Xiao Wang will correct you today!"

The aura of the early stage of Kaixuan exploded in vain, and Zhu Cheng seemed to have a faint white light enveloping his body, and a punch slammed in.

However, two months ago, maybe Li Xunlian would have dodged a little, but now he is in the late stage of Kaixuan, not to mention that the strength of his body is far from being comparable to Zhu Cheng, and he is completely abusing the latter regardless of strength, speed, or explosion.

The figure flickered, and the body of the Hurricane Disease in the Four-Character True Scripture was unfolded, and it swept past Zhu Cheng's fist, and his backhand was slapped on the face.

The crisp sound was like dry wood breaking, echoing in the empty martial arts arena of the Dragon You Palace.

During this period of time, Li Xunlian has studied the four-character true scripture in addition to cultivation, and his entry has naturally risen sharply, although it is still far from being comparable to the wind, but this speed response is already dominant among his peers and ranks.

Even, Li Xunlian faintly felt that even if he crossed a realm, against the master of Shanggu Xuan, these four-character scriptures could also play a great role.

Li Xunlian didn't use much force in this slap, so Zhu Cheng was not fanned like the last time in the palace, but the corners of his mouth were bleeding.

"You ......" Zhu Cheng was both ashamed and stunned, and it was definitely a great humiliation to be slapped in front of Princess Xi. But he didn't expect that the last time he did it with Li Xunlian, this person was only forcibly suppressing himself with his physical veins, but now, he was obviously in the Xuan Qi realm, and he also threw himself far away!

Syllable!

As soon as he blurted out a word of you, Li Xunlian slapped his backhand again.

"This!"

Another slap in the face.

"Princess ......"

Another slap in the face.

The fight was not heavy, it was intended to humiliate, and whenever Zhu Cheng wanted to speak, Li Xunlian would definitely give him a crisp slap.

Zhu Cheng was beaten frequently, and Princess Xi hurriedly called the prince for help. You must know that Zhu Cheng is her person, and it is her face that is broken when he hits Zhu Cheng's face. What's more, even if she doesn't know it, her feelings for Zhu Cheng in her heart are no longer just as simple as male pets.

This son is very good at pleasing people, and has a handsome face, and he is obedient to Princess Xi, and he will not be as jealous and sour as other male pets, which will naturally make Princess Xi favored.

Even Princess Xi felt that Zhu Cheng really liked her very much, and when the time was ripe in the future, she would definitely recruit her as a concubine.

I wanted to open my mouth more than a dozen times in a row, and I received more than a dozen slaps in a row, even if Li Xunlian didn't make a heavy hand, Zhu Cheng was still in his eyes at the moment, and he couldn't stand on his feet.

There is no doubt that Li Xunlian can't be beaten, and he can't escape, and being forced is the only way. But Zhu Cheng is now worried about another thing-

A few days ago, the prince's decision to teach Li Xunlian a lesson caused a storm in the imperial city, especially the princes and children of the same generation, who said that they would observe it in the future. Li Xunlian always thought that Zhu Tong had the intention to promote the royal prestige, but he didn't know that it was actually secretly manipulated by Zhu Cheng and Princess Xi.

In fact, Zhu Tong originally planned to put aside his identity and solve it in the way of ordinary people. But Princess Zhu Cheng and Princess Xi thought that they should take this opportunity to let Li Xunlian make a good appearance.

The afternoon is about to pass, and the time is coming, and a large number of spectators are coming......

Sure enough, as soon as Zhu Cheng thought about it, the voice of the eunuch chief announcement came from outside.

"Zhu Bin, Prince of the West, ask to see His Royal Highness the Prince~"

"Zhu Wu, Prince of Liang, ask to see His Royal Highness the Prince~"

"Zai Fu Gongzi asks to see, and General Long Wei's second son asks to see ......"

Wave after wave, it is even more punctual than visiting the Qinglou collectively!

Zhu Cheng sighed, and said in his heart that today was a disgrace and a complete ruin.

Suddenly, more than 20 officials and children came to the scene, and after worshipping the prince in unison, they set their eyes on Li Xunlian and Zhu Cheng.

"Ha, Zhu Cheng is going to take the lead? It seems that the kid surnamed Li is going to suffer a big loss today. ”

"Presumably, the kid surnamed Li was shocked by the prince and didn't dare to fight back, let's see what Zhu Cheng would beat him into. ”

According to Zhu Cheng's domineering, kneeling and begging for mercy is light, and it is possible to directly kill and maim him. ”

Zhu Tong is a shrewd person, and he guessed the whole thing after listening to everyone's discussions, so he smiled and said: "Everyone, Brother Cheng has the heart to work for the palace and teach the boy surnamed Li a lesson, since you are here, how about everyone cheering for him together?"

There were already people who were anxious and couldn't wait, and since the prince spoke, they were naturally happy to be lively, so they urged one after another-

"Let's start, beat him, let's see how far your strength has improved now. ”

"Yes, take out your future princely demeanor, and teach this ant who doesn't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the army a lesson. ”

"Hurry up, you see your face is frozen red, the brothers are here to cheer you on, what are you waiting for. ”

For a while, the sound was like a wave, and Zhu Cheng, who was forced to ask Li Xunlian for advice......

This time, Zhu Cheng didn't talk nonsense, anyway, he was beaten, and he could leave this sad place as soon as he ended the battle.

The victory and defeat were known very quickly, and before everyone finished clamoring, when Zhu Cheng had just punched, a crisp slap came, and Li Xunlian had already knocked Zhu Cheng to the ground.

This slap was extremely heavy, Zhu Cheng hummed and chirped for a long time after falling to the ground and couldn't get up, the princes and princes who were watching were suddenly silent, and they opened their mouths wide, first looking at Zhu Cheng in disbelief, and then looking at the prince, they didn't understand, the dignified son, why did he allow the kid surnamed Li to be presumptuous in front of him.

It's easy to say, this Zhu Cheng is also his brother......

"You remember, I will not kill you three times and several times, not because I don't dare, but because I don't want to. If there is another time, even if you are not the mastermind, but only instigate or have a part, you will never be spared again. ”

The north wind stirred Li Xun's shirt, hunting sounded, and he stood there proudly, with an indescribable momentum. His eyes swept over the princes and princes, and there seemed to be a scatter in his eyes, but there was a hidden fierceness in the depths, and he said proudly: "And you, remember it together." ”

came with the mentality of watching a play, and was also ready to curry favor with Li Xunlian and Princess Xi, but the ending was shocked.

Despite this, everyone still did not dare to say anything. You must know that the royal brothers and sisters present are the most important, and the next one is Zhu Cheng. Now that the prince didn't speak, Zhu Cheng was even more overturned, they were a group of minions, who dared to open their mouths?

Of course, minions are just relatively speaking, if these people change the occasion, which one is the little overlord of Gyeonggi.

The prince didn't speak because he hated Zhu Cheng in the first place, and for Zhu Cheng, he was more inclined to Li Xunlian. But Princess Xi was different, seeing that the royal brother was not presiding over the scene, she had to go out by herself.

"Presumptuous, Zhu Cheng is also a close relative of the royal family, you dare to attack him, come to someone, and kill this person who despises the imperial court for this palace!"

There are a few guards on the west side of the martial arts arena, but they don't move at the moment, this is the Longyou Palace, the prince Zhu Tong is the only master, without him to speak, let alone Princess Xi, even Emperor Qingxiao may not support the move.

However, the eunuch who had sent a message to Li Xunlian before was about to move, and his hands as delicate as a woman suddenly glowed with a hint of blue light.

Zhu Tong felt something, glanced at him, and said coldly: "Gonggong Tao, if you are annoyed by staying around this palace, get out immediately." ”

This may sound abrupt, but Tao Wanqing knows it. The prince is a human being, and he can't stand the slightest betrayal, a few days ago, he received the benefits of Princess Xi, and chewed a lot of ears for the prince to slander Li Xunlian, as the prince's close attendant, but he did things that went against the prince's wishes, which in Zhu Tong's view, was betrayal.

It is not serious, but it is also intolerable.

Besides, he also accepted Zhu Cheng's benefits, but I don't know if the prince found out.

Sighing lightly, Tao Wanqing has served the prince for many years, and he knows this son's temperament very well, and today he is afraid that his future will be ruined because of his impulsive small actions at this moment.

"The prince cherishes it, and the old slave is gone. Tao Wanqing bowed deeply to the prince, and knew that it was useless to say more, but when he turned to leave, he viciously glanced at Li Xunlian.

Li Xunlian frowned slightly, he saw from the other party's eyes that it was as sinister as a poisonous viper, and that gloomy gaze was not like hatred, but resentment.

Tao Wanqing has left since then, presumably other officials will not take him in, the only place to go is to King Cheng, this person's strength is not weak, and he must be guarded against in the future.

Or, perhaps, he would not have taken refuge with anyone, but that would have been more guarded, and it would have been easier for him to resort to intrigue and intrigue without scruples.

"This person is angry with me because he has cut off his future, and he is unreasonable, and if he dares to make a mistake, he will be killed. Retracting his gaze from the direction Tao Wanqing left, Li Xunlian thought secretly.

He is not a good man and a woman to be manipulated, if you have the intention to harm me, you should bear the consequences.

Seeing that Gonggong Tao was leaving, Zhu Cheng was still lying on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, Princess Xi only felt that all the calculations and plans of the past few days had been in vain, and she immediately cried aggrieved.

"Brother Huang, you hurt Xi'er's heart so much, for the sake of a pariah, did you watch Xi'er being bullied!"

"Xi'er, don't talk nonsense!" Zhu Bai's face sank, and he said solemnly: "The people are the people, why do you say that the untouchables, you have to know that even if our Zhu family's country is the country, it is also given by all the people in the world!"

It's attitude, nothing else.

Li Xunlian bowed slightly, and the Qingxiao Kingdom inherited from this person, and the people were fortunate.

"Li Xunlian, this palace also said before that as an elder brother, he can't bear to be bullied by his sister. After Zhu Tong scolded Princess Xi, he seemed to feel a little reluctant, and he was not ready to continue teasing Zhu Cheng, so he changed his words directly and said.

"I understand and respect all your choices, in any way. Li Xunlian nodded and replied.

"Well, today you and I will be separated. If you win me, it means that this palace is unable to be angry with my sister and leave with you. If I win you, you will be handed over to the imperial sister, but this palace guarantees that it will not hurt your life. Zhu Tong Zhengse said.

Li Xunlian nodded again, this condition is reasonable.

Seeing that Li Xunlian had no opinions, Zhu Tong threw off the dragon robe, took a few steps back to open the distance, and said: "This palace view of you should be in the middle stage of the Xuan Dynasty, for the sake of fairness, I don't use weapons." ”

"It doesn't matter, you're angry with your sister, and you're not competing with me, if you're good at using a sword, then use a sword, that's the real fairness. Li Xunlian stretched out his hand and gestured to please.

As soon as he said this, the sons of the officials began to talk about it again. Why did this son dare to talk to the prince like this, what a big tone, and so on, and so on.

Zhu Tong was stunned for a moment, and then immediately admired Li Xunlian more and more.

"This man is open-minded, knowing that if I use the sword, he will be defeated. But he didn't use this as a reason, but gave up the conditions that were beneficial to him for the sake of being truly fairer, and he was morally in his heart, worthy of being an innkeeper. ”

Thinking so, Zhu Tong replied to Li Xunlian to ask, but the sword was not unsheathed after all.

Li Xunlian didn't bother with this matter, and directly shook the surrounding Xuan Qi and put on a posture.

"Brother Li, take it. ”

As soon as Zhu Tong's right arm was drawn, the cyan Xuan Qi surrounded him, but when he saw that his feet were exerting force, the whole person rushed towards him like an arrow from the Xuan.

However, before making a move, he reminded that after what happened just now, he also changed his title from Gongzi Li to Brother Li.

The eyebrows were slightly sunken, the figure in his eyes was getting closer and closer, and Li Xun's arms were adducted, and he couldn't move like a mountain.

The prince is a cultivator in the early stage of Gu Xuan, he is in the late stage of Kaixuan, not only is there a big realm in the middle, but also a small stage of the peak of Kaixuan, and the gap is not small.

In terms of fundamental strength, Li Xunlian knew that he would never be able to compete with Zhu Tong. But if you talk about speed, aggressiveness, and precision of your moves, with the four-character scripture, you may not be able to deal with it.

Besides, he still has the hole card of the god alien vein.

Li Xunlian didn't know what kind of body vein he was for, but there was no doubt that his body vein was quite strong. Today, I take this opportunity to compare with the strongest dragon bloodline in Kyushu.

said that it was too late and that was too fast, these thoughts flashed in Li Xunlian's mind, and Zhu Tong's first move had already hit him.

With a low shout, Li Xunlian's inner arms suddenly reached out, and it was actually a lose-lose style of play without defense!

Switching from immobility to aggression like fire in an instant, you must know that this is not just a change of moves, it involves the inward compression and sudden release of Xuan Qi, which are two completely different ways of luck that contradict each other, Li Xunlian can transform so quickly and freely, which really surprised Zhu Tong.

Xuan Qi did not retract, the original attack point from the whole to zero, Zhu Tong shouted violently, turned his fist into a palm, and several palm shadows roared out, attacking Li Xun in the upper, middle and lower three ways.

According to what he thought, this change of move, relying on the advantage of Xuan Qi, should force Li Xunlian to give up the lose-lose style of play and turn back to a defensive posture again. Otherwise, after this blow, even if Li Xunlian can succeed, he will have to pay the price of being hit by more tricks all over his body, and he will be steadily suppressed, completely losing the opportunity to turn the tables.

However, the opponent's response made Zhu Tong frown again.

I saw Li Xunlian's figure suddenly rotate to the left in the rush, and it seemed that he still tried his best to break the net, but it dissipated in an instant, and was replaced by Qi Yu's feet, volleying a few steps in the air, and came to Zhu Tong's side!

From the aggressiveness of fire to the flurry of the wind, it turned out to be a smooth connection without any pause!

This person doesn't seem to be bound by inertia, and he can be free!

Of course, Zhu Tong is only in the early stage of Gu Xuan, and he can be called the peak among the younger generation, but there is still a long way to go in the entire metaphysical cultivation field. He saw that Li Xunlian was free to retract and release, but it was only for this stage, if he was replaced by a strong Tianhe or Lingxi, he could see the loopholes at a glance.

But even so, it's amazing enough. You must know that Zhu Tong's strength is one realm higher than Li Xunlian!

The shadow of the palm is scattered, and the coverage can reach a radius of three zhang, although Zhu Tong did not do his best, this move also made it difficult for him to continue within two breaths. Now that he was dodged by Li Xunlian, he had to defend immediately.

The qi machine was adducted, and the blue light on the body surface suddenly flowed, quickly converging into a light curtain.

However, when this light curtain had not yet taken shape, Zhu Tong suddenly realized that there seemed to be a very subtle but sharp Xuan Qi that took advantage of the void and went straight to the lumbar spine acupoint!

"This!" was in his heart, but he was not Li Xunlian, without the support of the four-character scripture, how could he do whatever he wanted in the transformation of his breath in attack and defense.

Therefore, the sharp Xuan Qi still succeeded, and at the last moment before the light curtain was formed, it pierced the vital point like a sharp needle.

Anticipate the enemy first, and be orderly. This technique is the essence of the forest that Su is best at.

At the critical moment, Zhu Yan's mind flashed, and the blood of Aolong was stimulated, and the sharp Xuan Qi pierced half an inch and could not enter again, but it still made him snort, his body turned sharply, and he was several feet away from Li Xunlian.

There seemed to be a feeling of paralysis in his waist, and Zhu Tong knew that if he advanced another half an inch, he would lose his mobility for a short time.

Surprise flashed in his eyes, and his expression was already solemn when he looked at Li Xunlian.

Although this move was not controlled, it was almost defeated. This was very different from what Zhu Tong had imagined, but the most important thing was that before he was attacked, he didn't even have the slightest perception of that sharp mystery!
