Chapter 156: Gossip

In the main hall of the palace, Li Bai glanced at Nangong Baiyu and saw some loss and tension in her eyes.

Not only Nangong Baiyu, but everyone else also held their breath, waiting for Li Bai's answer.

"Lord Wang, feelings can't find their roots, and there are some things that can't be taken out like a stone or a sword. So, I don't know how you need me to prove that I'm sincere to Yu'er?"

He behaved calmly, and in other eyes, it was a demeanor that a master should maintain, and it was also the difference between a master and an ordinary warrior.

King Xikang frowned, thinking back and forth, and then his face suddenly relaxed, as if he had thought of something.

"If my county horse master of Xikang Wangfu is also a dragon and phoenix among people, a warrior and hero. Even if it goes against the will of Emperor Yongkang, then my Nangong Baibi is willing. ”

"My conditions are very simple, in a few months, Monroe, the warrior of the Bano Empire, as long as you can enter the top ten and become a Monroe warrior, then I will marry Yu'er to you!

King Xikang finally stated his conditions.

There was a sudden uproar in the main hall, and everyone began to mumble.

Nangong Baiyu's face was full of displeasure, and even a little annoyed, obviously King Xikang's conditions were even higher than she thought.

The previous Warrior Monroe Race has been held in the Barno Empire, and the warriors who participated in the Monroe Race came from all over the continent. Swordsmen, warriors, killers, knights, beast masters, magicians and other warriors of various professions emerge one after another. The warriors who can win the top 10 in the Monroe game are called the Monroe Warriors.

The cultivator who holds the title of Monroe Warrior is the successor of the younger generation with real potential. In the past, the Monroe warriors were all co-opted by major forces, or became the heir to the head of a certain sect, or became the patron of the royal power of a certain empire.

After hearing this condition, Nangong Baiyu finally couldn't help it.

"Father, you are obviously a strong man's difficulty! Even if Lin Zibai was lucky enough to defeat the Wild Chicken-level killer, but at that time, the killer's target was me, and there was the second elder of Zuo Ting and Right Wei to suppress the formation. If Lin Gongzi can win the top ten in Monroe, then why should he succumb to my Xikang territory!"

"I agree!"

Just when Nangong Baiyu was angry, Li Bai said loudly.

In an instant, there was silence in the main hall, and the needle drop could be heard.

Zuo Ting and Right Wei hurriedly stepped forward to persuade King Xikang.

"Lord Wang, the old minister is willing to vouch, this Lin Gongzi is indeed a talent that can be created, if I Xikang gives him a chance, given time, it will definitely add a big boost to my Xikang. Right Wei admonished.

"The old minister thinks so too!"

Zuo Ting naturally supported Right Wei and hurriedly seconded it.

King Xikang himself calculates that there are still a few months left before the Warrior Monroe. In the past few months, he can make full use of Li Bai, and maybe he can find another reason to contact him in the future. In the current situation, it is natural to stabilize Li Bai first and think about it in the long run.

"Okay!ha...... Young man, flesh and spirit, and warrior spirit! Since you agree, then we will make up our minds. ”

King Xikang laughed loudly, full of elder posture.

Subsequently, Nangong Baiyu was angry and immediately brushed his sleeves away.

Li Bai bowed and apologized, immediately retreated from the main hall, and went straight to Nangong Baiyu's boudoir.

When he came to the white jade gate of Nangong, several guards immediately stopped Li Bai.

"Lin Gongzi, why are you here?"

Xiaoguo had just come out of the house, and just happened to see Li Bai, and then asked.

"County Lord, how is she?" asked Li Bai.

"Are you still angry? Lin Gongzi still don't disturb Miss, let her be quiet alone. Alas, Miss is the life of the swallow, and she always wants to get rid of the shackles and go to the bigger world outside. ”

Xiao Guo sighed with emotion and looked at the sky at the four corners of the palace.

couldn't see Nangong Baiyu, and Li Bai had no choice but to return to his house.

......

Two days later.

In the Xikang Palace, the matter of Lin Zibai and the county lord Nangong Baiyu spread everywhere in private, and the entire palace was boiling.

When Li Bai passed by the corridor, he suddenly noticed that the subordinates of the palace looked at him with strange eyes.

Someone was talking in private, and it happened to be heard by Li Bai who was passing by.

"Have you heard, the county lord decided to break with the prince for the sake of a warrior named Lin Zibai......"

"I heard that it was Lin Zibai Warrior who proposed marriage to the prince in person, and the prince made things difficult in every way and wanted to beat the mandarin ducks......"

"That's not the case, I heard that the prince wants to let Lin Zibai Warrior go to participate in the Monroe race, and only after he gets the first place is he willing to marry the county lord to him......"

"And there's more...... I heard that the county lord and Lin Zibai, the two of them, are already there......"

"Heehehehe, don't talk nonsense, let's go......"

A few maids in the palace seem to be fine, and they always like to inquire about the gossip about their masters.

Originally, Li Bai didn't care, but after coming and going, he found that the entire palace was talking about it.

When Li Bai wondered, he saw a familiar figure at the end of the corridor: Vinol.

He stepped forward, just in time to meet Vinol's eyes.

"Lin Gongzi stops!"

Vinol suddenly stopped and stopped Lieber.

"Oh, is there anything wrong with the Warrior Vinol?" asked Lieber.

"That's the case, I heard that Lin Gongzi is superior in strength and well-informed, so I want to ask Lin Gongzi about something!"

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!"

Vinol looked around to make sure there was no one around.

"Lin Gongzi, take a step to speak!"

Afterwards, Lieber took Vinol to his room and closed the door.

"Warrior Vinol, what are the words, can be said now!"

Li Bai said politely, with a certain expectation in his eyes.

"I want to ask, has Lin Gongzi ever heard of the Spirit Sword Rankings?" asked Vinol.

"Of course, it is said that in the Spirit Sword Pavilion, there is a divine weapon, and the ranking of the spirit sword will be displayed on the divine soldier, and this ranking is also known as the spirit sword ranking. Li Bai said, pausing for a moment, "I've also been lucky enough to see a few spirit swords on the leaderboard. ”

"Really, what kind of sword is it?"

Vinol asked suddenly excitedly, but immediately calmed down again.

Li Bai smiled when he saw him act like this.

"I don't want you to say that I once cultivated in the Warrior City of the Colin Empire for a period of time, and my title of Warrior was obtained from the Calemondo Academy in the province of Womet. ”

Hearing Li Bai say this, a trace of embarrassment flashed on Vinol's face, and he immediately used his usual disguise to hide his emotions.

"Lin Gongzi is really well-informed, and he has even been to the Colin Empire, I really admire it!"

Then, the two looked at each other, each guessing.

The last time he saw Vinol in Guanyi Immortal Mountain, Li Bai guessed that he was most likely the warrior who escaped from Wormett back then.

"I don't like you to say that the Ji Yi Sword I use is also the Reverse Ah Sword, which is the eighty-ninth and one hundred and first swords on the Spirit Sword Rankings. ”

Lieber continued, carefully observing Vinol's reaction.

"Hehehe...... I see......"

Vinol deliberately hid his embarrassment and shame with a smile. If he is really a warrior of Wormit, then he must be feeling sorry for his past, so he has no shame to face the guardian warriors who fought side by side in the past.

"By the way, Lin Gongzi, I suddenly remembered that I still have some things. I've got to go first!"

Li Bai politely sent him out, looking at his back as he left in a hurry, Li Bai was even more sure that he must have something to do with the warriors of Womet in the past.

......

Inside the county lord's house.

Nangong Baiyu was angry, so he went on a hunger strike behind closed doors to threaten King Xikang.

Xiaoguo still waited for her, and reported the movements of King Xikang at any time.

"Xiaoguo, how is the thing I asked you to do?"

"Miss, don't worry, I gave them some silver for a few maids who usually have long mouths. The news has gotten out. Now, the entire palace knows that the county lord and Lin Gongzi are in love, but the prince does not talk about human favors and beats the mandarin ducks. ”

In order to force King Xikang to submit, Nangong Baiyu also did everything he could, risking his reputation and letting Xiaoguo put pressure on him through gossip.

"How is Lin Gongzi doing over there?" asked Nangong Baiyu.

"He stayed in the house all day, and Zuo Tingwei went to see him, probably due to the aggravation of his injuries. Little Gono said.

"What! Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Nangong Baiyu immediately stood up and prepared to go to see Li Bai.

"Miss, don't go. ”

Xiaoguo suddenly stopped her,

"What's wrong?"

Xiaoguo hesitated for a while, and said timidly: "Shiraishi Shizi returned home yesterday!"

When Nangong Baiyu heard this, his face immediately became serious.

Although Nangong Baishi is the son of Nangong Baibi, the king of Xikang, he and Nangong Baiyu are half-brothers and sisters. In the early years, when Nangong Baiyu was young, her mother was killed by Nangong Baishi's mother. After King Xikang learned the truth, he executed Nangong Baishi's mother. Therefore, the palace is divided into three forces, and everyone knows it.

Over the years, Nangong Baiyu and Nangong Baishi have been supported by their respective mothers' side in the past, and gradually cultivated their own power.

It's a pity that Nangong Baiyu has always wanted to escape from the power struggle for many years, but Nangong Baishi is obsessed with it. This advance and retreat made Nangong Baishi's power much greater than Nangong Baiyu's.

Since Nangong Baishi always wants to find an opportunity to suppress Nangong Baiyu, then Lin Zibai's appearance this time is undoubtedly the best opportunity for him.

"Xiaoguo, you call Zuo Ting and Right Wei to come here!"
