Chapter 7: The Shepherd

The king of Mu is more than forty years old, wearing a python robe, and his skin is slightly darkened by the perennial battle, and a pair of thick eyebrows and tiger eyes look very majestic.

"Father!" Xu Xiaodong looked at King Mu, King Mu had a lot of gray hair on his sideburns, I remember that the last time I was at home, my father was still full of black hair.

"Xiaodong, you're back, why don't you tell your father in advance, King Xiaoyuan hasn't seen you for a long time, you are a rare guest. King Mu first nodded, and then teased Cai Zhiyuan.

The little fat man smiled all over his face, "Isn't the little nephew watching Uncle Muwang's daily affairs, I'm afraid of disturbing you." If I knew that Uncle Muwang thought of me like this, I would definitely come to see you every day. ”

"You kid, you're still so poor, but it's much more interesting than your father, and this king likes it. The Shepherd stroked his hands and laughed.

Cai Zhiyuan kept his mouth shut and kept silent, he was not a shepherd, but he didn't dare to evaluate his father, otherwise he would not be beaten when he went back.

"Father, I heard some unfavorable news about you in the academy, but is it true?" After greeting for a while, Xu Xiaodong couldn't hold back and couldn't help asking.

He knew his father's character, and he carried all the big things by himself, and he didn't want his family to worry.

Since the death of his mother, his father has no one to talk to.

With the huge essence of his earth-level powerhouse, if it hadn't been for a major accident, how could he have been full of gray hair in just a few months.

"It's all rumors from some people outside, you don't have to take it seriously. The king of Mu sipped tea for a moment, and said with a smile: "Your father is fine, and he will go to the border in a few days." ”

"Father, you don't have to lie to me, I know that you have been deprived of the military rights of the Zhendong Army. Xu Xiaodong felt a pain in his heart, if it wasn't for Gongsun Yun to say it this time, he didn't come back, I'm afraid that he is a son who still doesn't know that something happened to his father.

I regretted in my heart that I only cared about cultivation and didn't care about my father.

And in order to take care of himself, his father has not taken a concubine for many years after his mother's death, just to give himself the only care.

"It seems that Fauber told you, and I know that this guy can't keep a secret. The Shepherd King glanced at Fu Bo on the side, and said angrily.

"Father, why didn't you tell me that something so big had happened? Xu Xiaodong was a little angry, he didn't want his father to hide anything from him, "How could Your Majesty treat you like this, he is your brother, and you helped him ascend to the throne back then." ”

"Be careful!" said King Mu's face changed.

"Lord Wang, don't worry. When the little prince and the little fat man came in, I had already ordered the Blood Flame Team to strengthen their vigilance. Fauber said.

Hearing this, King Mu's face relaxed, his imperial brother had many ears and eyes, if Xu Xiaodong's words were spread, I was afraid that it would cause a bloody storm.

King Mu Xu Yun was also very puzzled in his heart, the imperial brother should know very well in his heart that he had no intention of taking the throne, otherwise he would not have helped him wholeheartedly to ascend to the throne back then. And ascended to the throne, with the assistance of a large number of resources, the strength of this imperial brother has long been incomprehensible to him. I will never be so confused as to rebel!

But why did he listen to other people's slander, he has suppressed himself for the past year, and now he has relieved himself of military power.

Xu Yun was also very dissatisfied in his heart, but he couldn't let Xu Xiaodong know that he knew this son's character, arrogant and affectionate, if he let him know these things, something might happen, and he didn't want this son to worry.

Xu Yun sighed and said, "Actually, I was planning to tell you about these things recently, so you don't have to worry. The situation is not as bad as you think, Your Majesty just asked me to step down from the position of generalissimo, my prince is still here, and I, a prince and a prefecture-level powerhouse, are not so easy to fall. ”

"Yes, Brother Dong, you don't have to worry too much, Uncle Muwang is a prefecture-level martial arts master, and the imperial court will definitely reuse it. This time, maybe His Majesty felt that Uncle Muwang was too tired at the border, so he let him rest for a while, and maybe he would reuse it after a while. Cai Zhiyuan said a reason that he didn't believe.

Xu Xiaodong didn't know that the little fat man was comforting himself, but he was reminded by the king of the shepherd. Xu Xiaodong came to his senses, he was concerned just now, and if he thought about it carefully, His Majesty had no motive to attack his father today. The whole world knows that the Muwang is loyal and has the merit of the dragon, and he has resisted the Purple Cloud Empire on the border over the years, and has made great contributions to the prosperity of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and he has no military power.

As long as this imperial uncle's brain is not broken, he will not do it again, otherwise not only will everyone in the clan be in danger, but the scholars in the world will also be cold, and no one is willing to work for the unsympathetic boss.

Thinking about this, Xu Xiaodong was slightly relieved, hesitated, and Xu Xiaodong said: "Father, I have something to ask for, and I hope you can agree." ”

"What's the matter? The shepherd was a little curious, but this son rarely asked for anything.

"I want to break off the marriage contract with Gongsun Yun, I'm afraid it will have some impact on you. Xu Xiaodong said slowly, he didn't like Gongsun Yun before, and the arena made him very disgusted with this girl.

"Dissolve the marriage contract, have you thought clearly?" To Xu Xiaodong's surprise, he originally thought that his father would be furious, after all, everyone in the world knew that his marriage contract with Gongsun Yun was personally appointed by King Mu, and King Mu and Gongsun Ming had a good relationship.

"I thought it through. Xu Xiaodong said.

"Now that you've figured it out, let's lift it!" Xu Yun sighed, "This king, the eldest brother of Gongsun, now that he sees me losing power, I'm afraid that he has long wanted to break the marriage contract in his heart, so as to prevent us from pulling them into the water." ”

There was some embarrassment in the eyes of the king of the herd, the people were warm and cold, he used to be in the limelight, but now he lost his position a little, and the faces of these people were revealed.

No wonder his father didn't object, Xu Xiaodong sneered in his heart, this uncle Gongsun was eager to dissolve the marriage contract in his heart, so as not to drag them down.

It's a pity that I'm too weak to help now.

If my strength is strong, who dares to touch my father!

Xu Xiaodong deeply felt the importance of strength, if his strength was strong, he could solve the crisis of King Mu today.

"Hurry up and complete the tasks of the system and be promoted to the Xuan level. Xu Xiaodong secretly made up his mind.

Next, Xu Xiaodong lived in the palace for a few days, and then returned to the Imperial Capital Academy, and he had to master the strength after the surge during this time.

The qualifying competition is about to start in more than ten days, and the atmosphere of the entire academy is tense, the Imperial Capital Academy has an elimination system, and students who perform too poorly in the qualifying competition will be dismissed by the academy.

During this period, Xu Xiaodong, the son of the king of Mu, and Gongsun Yun, the daughter of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, broke off the marriage contract, which caused a sensation in the academy.
