In the castle, Black Mountain, Meiyue, Jinyu, and Nanlin were busy.

Outside the castle, Gu Qianshan, the tentative "quasi-heir to the throne", led his brothers to inquire about the source of the "rumors" from door to door.

Half a day had passed, and they had only asked a third of the merfolk.

Gu Qianshan saw that the light and shadow in the sea were dim, and said, "Everyone work hard, let's stay up all night." ”

The silver-tailed mermaid Hai Bing said: "Captain, disturb the people." Will it be complained? ”

Gu Qianshan said: "Extraordinary times, extraordinary means. What can be understood can be understood, and what cannot be understood, if we want to stop it, we can't stop people from complaining. So, if something happens, I'll bear it. ”

Hai Bing said: "Captain, I didn't mean that. We are carrying out the orders of the above, what is there to fear. The brothers just don't know the bottom of their hearts, if they really find out something terrible, what can they do? ”

The team led by Gu Qianshan personally has twenty people, mainly silver-tailed, black-tailed and red-tailed mermaids, which can be said to be their own forces. He swept over the mermaids, and when he saw that their eyes were very heavy, his heart moved, and he asked, "What did someone tell you?" ”

Hai Bing smiled: "I can't hide anything from you." He beckoned backwards and summoned a blacktail mermaid and a silvertail mermaid to his side.

The name of the black-tailed mermaid is Siwei, and he is a member of the Montenegrin family. The silver-tailed mermaid is called Bai Lang, and she is one of Gu Qianshan's classmates here.

Siwei said: "When the rumors first appeared, Elder Montenegro once told me that if there was a big change, I wanted my brothers to fully support the captain. ”

Bai Lang also said, "Elder Meiyue said the same thing. ”

The merfolk after that all nodded.

Gu Qianshan said: "This is to make me the king, if the boss knows, will he be satisfied or dissatisfied?" How did it get mixed up in my head. It's weird. He gathered his mind, looked at a few red-tailed mermaids, and asked, "Who have you listened to?" ”

A red-tailed mermaid said: "We didn't listen to anyone, but the captain is about to marry Yun Zhao, they are all a family, we will definitely support you." ”

Gu Qianshan nodded and arched his hand: "Thank you for your attention." ”

The mermaids returned the favor.

Gu Qianshan asked again: "What do you mean by the golden tail and the green tail?" Did you hear that? ”

Hai Bing said: "I know. The golden tail wants to choose the golden road, and the green tail wants to choose the vicissitudes. ”

Gu Qianshan said: "Canglan is good. I heard that Jin Lu has something to do with the previous three, how could I choose him? ”

Hai Bing said: "I also know this. ”

Bai Lang couldn't help but interject: "How do you know everything?" ”

Hai Bing said: "Don't interrupt, I have more secrets in my hands, I'll blow you up later." Then he said: "Captain, that's the case, Jin Lu is the elder brother of the three of them, more than ten years older than them, and everything good is put on him, and it is cultivated by their family according to the crown prince candidate, which is fundamentally different from those three free-rangers." This is a treasure, and those three are kelp, which has long been abandoned. ”

Gu Qianshan said: "This family is funny enough, in one house, one crown prince, three scum, good to the extreme, bad to the extreme, all of them are the best." ”

Hai Bing said: "Not really. ”

Subsequently, Hai Bing said a lot about the secrets of the various ethnic groups that he had inquired about.

After Gu Qianshan heard this, he said in his heart: "These elders are deep enough, they usually do so many things behind their backs like no one else. It seems that I can't be the mermaid king. Hey, Boss, I'm sorry, grab your job. Thinking of the opportunity to seal Wu Yunzhao in front of everyone, I felt comfortable and happy. As a man, Gu Qianshan needs dignity, and he needs an opportunity to show that his ability is definitely not inferior to others. He wanted to prove to Wu Yunzhao that he was willing to stand behind him, not incapable of standing in front of him.

He waved his hand and shouted, "Brothers, lift your spirits and continue." ”

The mermaids said in unison, "Yes, Captain." ”

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Qianshan and his party met with the people brought by Canglan. The nationwide inspection was announced.

Canglan said: "Captain, I have found the person who spread the rumors." He waved behind him.

Two blue-tailed merfolk stepped forward with a gold-tailed mermaid.

Gu Qianshan looked up and down, and saw that the golden-tailed mermaid was beginning to look old, and he should be a little old, and asked, "What is the name, is it that you are talking nonsense about the king?" ”

The golden-tailed mermaid said: "My name is Jin Yuan, captain, I'm just old, thinking that I'm dying, I just said it casually, I didn't mean to spread rumors." ”

Gu Qianshan said in his heart: "It's really a rumor? Okay, the blind cat has run into a dead mouse. He asked, "How old are you?" ”

Jin Yuan said: "Two hundred and three." ”

Gu Qianshan nodded and said, "Well, it's really not small." But you yourself are not young, what do you want the king to do? ”

Jin Yuan looked bitter and said, "Captain, you believe me." I really didn't mean to. The king never showed up, so I counted the number of years and said, 'The last time I saw the king, I was only over seventy years old, and I don't know if I will be able to see the king again before I die.' The king is older than me, so don't be one step ahead of me. He clapped his hands anxiously and said, "I'll just say this, just in time, someone passed by, and so, the word spread." With that, he lowered his head, as if he realized that he had made a mistake.

Gu Qianshan couldn't help but respect the old man, and said in his heart: "It's interesting, your old casual words almost made the five elders turn against each other. He said, "You are tired, come with us and meet with the elders." After dawn, give another testimony, this matter is over, remember in the future, just don't talk nonsense. ”

Kim Won-lian claimed, "Yes, yes. ”

Gu Qianshan said: "Canglan has found someone and made a contribution, go with me to see the elders, and the others will disperse." ”

Not long after, Gu Qianshan and Canglan came to the castle with Jin Yuan.

That night, the four elders had trouble sleeping, and as soon as they heard the news, they immediately gathered together and met the "culprit".

Knowing that the chaos was caused by jokes, Black Mountain, Meiyue, Jin Yu and Nanlin all breathed a sigh of relief, relieved, and happy in their hearts, but at the same time felt that they couldn't cry or laugh. They were tormented for a whole day and a night.

After dawn, the four of them immediately ordered to gather the people, explain to everyone, and ask Jin Yuan to testify that the death of the king was indeed nonsense, so that everyone could live in peace.

Once again, they lied and concealed the facts.

After doing so, the situation of the five elders ruling was maintained, and the choice of the mermaid king was temporarily postponed.

The mermaid country is calm again, but the undercurrent is more ferocious.

In the afternoon, Gu Qianshan, who had made up for sleep, pulled Wu Yunzhao to the sea and shared the news with Wu Yunzhao on the reef.

Gu Qianshan said: "The golden tail supports Jin Lu, the green tail supports Canglan, and most of the black tail, silver tail and red tail support me, boss, what do you say?" ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "What can I do?" You are in line with the will of the people, blessed with unique blessings, and boldly ascended the throne. ”

Gu Qianshan said: "Boss, I said it in advance, I didn't think about usurping your position, how did it develop like this, I don't understand." ”

Gu Qianshan can have so many supporters, on the one hand, because of his own outstanding ability and usually expanding his network, and on the other hand, he relies on the promotion of Montenegro and Meiyue. His ability to become a "quasi-crown prince" is the result of a combination of active and passive.

Wu Yunzhao said: "As far as the situation is concerned, I can't do it. Instead of letting the throne fall on someone else's head, it should fall on your head, and you are your own person anyway. ”

Gu Qianshan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I thought you were going to be unhappy." ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "I'm not happy. Stretched out his hand, gently choked Gu Qianshan's neck, shook it gently, and frowned: "How can I mix you up, the old lady has no other use except for being a vase, what is the reason!" It's still not a big heroine. Ahh "Gritting his teeth, I only felt depressed.

Gu Qianshan said: "Boss, don't get excited, the waves are turbulent." ”

Wu Yunzhao laughed angrily, pushed the person away, and said, "Hooligans! ”

Gu Qianshan said cheekily: "The true colors of men, if you don't look at white, you don't look at it, who told you not to wear more." ”

Wu Yunzhao flicked his hair, blocked his chest, and glared: "Poke your blind move." ”

Gu Qianshan covered his eyes with his palms, opened his fingers, his black eyes rolled slightly, and he said with a smile: "Boss, why don't we change our route this time." ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "Change to what?" ”

I like the word emperor, the old lady is tired of it, please collect: () The word "emperor", the old lady is tired of the green beans update the fastest.
