In the imperial city, above the main hall, Gao Wei met His Majesty, the emperor of the Tianyuan Empire. All the courtesies are not lost, there is no nervousness, and the questions of the emperor are also answered fluently. Anyone in the court has to pick a thumbs-up, this is the first time Gao Wei has seen the emperor, and the first time he has seen a big man in this empire can be so relaxed, and there is really too little tension at all, it can be said that there is almost nothing. Gao Haifeng also smiled when he watched his son's performance on the side, and nodded lightly.

There are many problems in the court that cannot be said, and the emperor let everyone disperse, leaving Gao Wei and Gao Haifeng, the father and son. It's just that there is another person who has also been left, and this person is the crown prince of the Tianyuan Empire, Shaobaogu Su Funian. Many people are very curious about why the emperor left this Gusu Funian, but few people have the courage to speculate.

"Gao Wei," the emperor put away his smile in the court, and at this moment the emperor's face was solemn, "tell me, how did you break the defense of the blood-colored giant ship of the Blood Domain Soul Clan." ”

Gao Wei's face is also correct, this is the main topic. The words above the court were greeted everywhere, and it turned out that the main topic was left here. "Back to Your Majesty," Gao Wei bowed slightly, and said, "I'm also a blind cat who ran into a dead mouse and inadvertently hit a mark on the blood-colored giant ship." ”

"Sigils?"

"Exactly. Gao Wei said, "It's at the stern of the Scarlet Giant." ”

The emperor and Gao Haifeng glanced at each other, Gao Haifeng frowned slightly, and said, "It's the totem mark of the Blood Domain Soul Clan." ”

The Emperor nodded and said, "I didn't expect that the totem mark would actually be the weakness of their giant ship. Glancing at Gao Wei, the emperor asked again, "Gao Wei, have you ever fought with the people of the Blood Domain Soul Clan?"

Gao Wei pondered for a moment and said, "No." "The weakness of the Blood Domain Soul Clan's giant ship was what the Blood Nine Ghost told him, after he destroyed the Blood Giant Ship, the Blood Domain Soul Clan was not alive at all, and he had no chance to fight the people of the Blood Domain Soul Clan at all. At this time, when it comes to the issue of the Blood Domain Soul Clan, Gao Wei will not lie. God knows how much trouble this lie will cause if it is told.

There was a slight hint of disappointment in the emperor's eyes, but he nodded anyway. Immediately, the emperor released the smile on his face and said, "Okay, Gao Wei." Originally, when you returned to the capital today, you should have let your family get together, but there is an old man from St. Garan College who wants to see you, so you should hurry up. ”

Gao Wei was slightly stunned, there was still someone in the Shenggaran Academy who could make the emperor pass on the message, and the emperor smiled and said, "You don't have to be curious, that old man can be regarded as one of my teachers." ”

It turned out to be the emperor's teacher, and Gao Wei knew it in his heart. Shenggaran Academy, speaking of which, Gao Wei still hung up the name of a lecturer there, but later he didn't stay there for various reasons, but only stayed for a short time. Gao Wei bowed like the emperor and retired, and now there are only the emperor, Gao Haifeng, and the old gentleman Gusu Funian in the palace.

The emperor looked at Gao Haifeng and said, "Third brother, it seems that our plan has to be accelerated. ”

Gao Haifeng nodded and said, "The plan has been going on all along, and it should be practiced at this time." It's just," Speaking of this, Gao Haifeng sank slightly, glanced at Gusu Funian, and said, "I still hope that Mr. Gusu will restrain his disciples and not make some small moves in secret." ”

Gu Su Fu Nian's face was slightly embarrassed, and he bowed and said, "This is also the reason why the old minister has to stay here." ”

"Your Majesty, Gao Wei has just come to the national capital, and many things are still hidden from you. Gu Su Fu read a sentence that made Gao Haifeng's heart chuckle, but then it was much easier, "He was ambushed on the way here. Five of these ambushes came from the Bloody Cloak Shop. ”

The emperor frowned slightly, "There is still such a thing, was it arranged by your disciple?"

Gu Su Funian smiled lightly and said, "How can that disciple of mine have the courage to do this? Although the Blood Clothes Workshop was founded by him, this organization is also a business after all. Someone pays, and naturally someone takes orders. As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the emperor and Gao Haifeng, and said, "Do you want to know, who placed the order?"

"Who?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive the old minister for his innocence. ”

"Well, I forgive you for your innocence, say!" the emperor had a faint bad premonition.

"It is His Royal Highness the Third Prince. Gu Su Fu bowed his rickety body and said this sentence slowly.

The emperor was silent for a moment, didn't say a word, just waved his hand, and motioned for Gusu Funian to retreat. Gu Su Fu Nian bowed his body a little deeper, and retreated respectfully.

Gao Haifeng and the emperor stood on the empty hall, looking at each other speechlessly. At this time, as the third prince, he actually did such a thing to a hero of the empire, and as an emperor, he really felt uncomfortable! The emperor had never been so anxious in the face of thousands of enemies. At the beginning, it seemed to be a matter of talking and laughing for a moment, but now I feel a deep sense of powerlessness when guarding this country.

It's easy to fight the country, but it's too difficult to defend the country.

The palace is so big, there are so many courtiers, and there are so many heirs of the emperor, but at a critical moment, even if the person who can stand with the emperor is the emperor's own son, how many are there?

There are two flowers, one on each branch. How uncomfortable the emperor is not to mention anymore, Gao Wei has pressed his former place of work during this period of time, the highest institution of learning in the empire, the Holy Garan Academy.

The flowers are still as bright as they were at the beginning, and the blue sky and white clouds are the same, but when Gao Wei came back, some people were no longer there. Many of the students he led went to the front line, fought bloody battles and died heroically on the front line, and many of them left the college and chose other life paths. Gao Wei still remembers the time when he fought against the law enforcement team with Bai Rufeng, he still remembers that his students were taken by the law enforcement team to train him to forcibly bring the students back, and he still remembers that he and Du Yuheng tore their faces here. Speaking of which, Gao Wei started fighting at the age of ten, but the real beginning of his life began at St. Garland's Academy.

Gao Wei thought back to those things at the beginning, and unconsciously walked to the small courtyard of Xiahoujie. It was in this small courtyard that he became the inspector of the empire and walked into the eyes of the upper echelons of the empire.

Pushing open the door of the small room, Gao Wei saw that it was not Xiahou Jie, but the sick old man who killed Du Yuheng, Elder Xuanyuan Jiuyou.

Xuanyuan Nine Shadows, Gao Wei suddenly remembered a name in his heart, Blood Nine Shadows. There is a Nine Shades in the name, and I don't know if these two people have anything to do with each other.
