Chapter 137: Dialogue in the East Chamber
The grass clippings are flying, and the sword aura is swirling.
Ning Yi and the girl, two people, drove a flying sword and swept across the grassland.
Looking at this quiet, vast, and peaceful land, Ning Yi murmured softly.
"Leave the steppe very quickly...... It won't be so peaceful. ”
Ning Yi knew it in his heart.
In the world of the demon clan, there are many forces that are eyeing themselves.
With the red cherry girl, she left from the Vermilion Bird Domain, and when she arrived at the West Demon Domain, she was at the mercy of the East Demon Domain as a chess piece, and if she left the grassland, it would definitely be a huge storm next.
Nine times out of ten, Badu City will come to the door.
Hei Hibiscus's "Extinction Scroll" is not yet complete, if the demon clan sword wielder wants to improve his cultivation, the fastest way is to find him and devour him.
Similarly, Ning Yi is also waiting for the black hibiscus.
And the Bai County Lord, who had used himself as a pawn to "play" with, was still imprisoned in the Sword Qi Cave Heaven at the moment...... This is the proton left by Ning Yi, and the Eastern Demon Domain will not let him go no matter what, but with "Bai Early Rest" in his hands, he will have an extra bargaining chip at the last moment.
Took a deep breath.
Ning Yi rubbed his eyebrows, his thoughts were complicated, the life scroll had not yet returned to its place, and the next thing was a predictable mess, but it was difficult to deduce and split it into a detailed scene.
"Don't worry...... Everything will go well. ”
The girl's voice came into her ears, and at the same time, the soft fragrance and the fragrance of the hair came together, Ning Yi was stepping on the second half of the flying sword at the moment, he gently sniffed the fragrance on the girl's body and smiled.
Ning Yi spoke slowly.
"I just killed the Eastern Emperor of the Demon Clan, and now there are two worlds, the younger generation, and there is no rival...... Whoever dares to stop me is a dead word!"
The tone of this sentence is very flat.
Among them, the murderous aura is quite chilling.
Pei Fu's expression froze, and she looked at Ning Yi, "You killed ...... The Eastern Emperor?"
On the Great Wall in the north, as a spectator, she witnessed the battle between the Eastern Emperor and Luo Changsheng...... And the strength of the first person of the demon clan is vivid, even if she has been in retreat in Purple Mountain for three years, the girl who is called "immortal talent" by Chu Xuan does not have the slightest confidence to defeat the Eastern Emperor.
She knew Ning Yi too well.
Ning Yi has never been a person who likes to exaggerate Haikou.
He let out a soft "um" and grinned, "It's hard to kill...... But I killed. ”
Speaking of this, Ning Yi's expression was a little lonely.
He paused, "Sort of...... Avenge him. ”
Pei Lingsu fell silent.
She knew who the "he" in Ning Yi's mouth was referring to, now that the war in the north was launched, the head of the northern city was slaughtered, and a large number of iron horsemen crossed Fengming Mountain, but more than the slaughter, there was more of a sense of sorrow, flowing on the cultivators in the northern city, Cao Ran, Ye Hongfu, Wang Yi, Luojia, Qiang Mountain, Academy...... The cultivators who gathered on the Great Wall in the north to watch the battle between the Immortals and the Eastern Emperor witnessed the picture of the mass of cause and effect sweeping towards Fengming Mountain.
The immortals were killed in battle.
For the Great Sui, it is a huge bitter fruit.
"The news that I killed the Eastern Emperor has not yet spread. Ning Yi took a light breath and said, "After leaving the grassland, someone will come, I don't know who will come first...... But they were 'lucky'. ”
The Eastern Emperor is a wandering and unsettled cultivator.
In Fengming Mountain, he refused the invitations of several transcendent forces.
Even Badu City had the idea of inviting him...... After all, the Eastern Emperor is completely in line with the image of a cultivator in Badu City, a lonely, powerful pure-blooded race, with his strength, the strength of his bloodline naturally goes without saying, except for Badu City, the Dragon Emperor Hall of the Northern Demon Domain, and the Dapeng Bird of the Eastern Demon Domain, they have all been invited.
It's a pity that all of them were rejected.
From beginning to end, the Eastern Emperor was a person.
He has no background behind him...... And this has led to the fact that the news of his fall on the grassland will not be known by the demon clan immediately, and the demon clan will greatly underestimate Ning Yi's strength.
"Leaving the grassland and crossing the 'Changqi Mountain', you can step into the 'Gray Land Boundary'. Pei Lingsu pursed his lips slightly and said, "I have prepared several formations, which can be nearly a hundred miles in an instant. Shen Yuanjun's iron cavalry will greet us. ”
"Hope...... All the best. ”
......
......
The long night is coming.
In the Lotus Building, a young man dressed in gorgeous clothes sits in an empty pavilion, and in front of him is a lonely portrait of a woman in red makeup, with hair hanging down, slightly scattered over her shoulders, smiling with her eyebrows and eyes, and turning her head sideways to the outsider.
These days, the prince likes to come to the Lotus Tower.
Even in the Lotus Building, there is no one.
He would sit in this pavilion all night long, staring at this portrait in a daze, looking dazed, waiting outside, the anxious courtiers in the palace, no one knew what he was thinking...... There was such a big turmoil in the north, he just turned a deaf ear, Luo Changsheng lost the duel with the Eastern Emperor, and Shen Yuanjun launched an extremely fierce surprise attack.
War in the North has broken out.
And the crown prince is like an ignorant person who stays out of the matter.
Those people don't know.
Only here is Li Baijiao a real person.
When a person makes a mistake, he will regret it and will try his best to make up for it...... When he has the greatest power in the world, there is no compensation that cannot be done, which is the reason why Li Baijiao wants to ascend to the throne of Tiandu, he thinks that he can make up for everything to "Honglu", but only later did he know that he was wrong.
Not every mistake has a chance to make amends.
With his back against the stone wall, his chest heaving and heaving, he let out a dull cough, his bun was taken off, and his messy long hair fell down, and he didn't look like a "proud" ruler at all.
Down and out.
Just like the downfall of the year.
Even more.
How could he let others see such a scene?
Hiding here, hiding here, he is no longer the Li Baijiao of the past, he can pretend to be a lonely and pitiful helpless person in the light and shadow of the heavenly capital of sword fighting, borrowing wine in the Lotus Tower to dispel his sorrows, and let the world belittle him and ridicule him.
It was only a brief escape from the long night.
From the moment he sat on the throne, there was no word for "escape", he always had to stand up.
Until dawn, outside the Lotus Tower, countless waiters have gathered, looking forward to it.
They are all waiting for someone.
Among them, the confidential officials of the three divisions had serious expressions and complicated thoughts.
Some of them are worried that the prince will willfully not go out, see no one, and not give orders because of the death of "Honglu".
Worried that His Highness will collapse.
I am worried that Da Sui will lose a big one because of a small one.
And yet—
When the dawn fell, what came out of the dark lotus building was still the "His Royal Highness the Prince" with a calm and cold expression and no leakage of clothes.
Li Baijiao hurriedly glanced at the officials who were bent down and waiting, there was no sadness or joy in his eyes, he brushed his sleeves and got into the car, and said to Haigong who was riding the horse: "Send me to the East Chamber." ”
Gonggong Hai hurriedly received the order.
And those waiting officials, some pinching cold sweat, clutching the bamboo slips in their sleeve robes, waiting for the prince to come out of the building, they wanted to "die with an invitation" to hand over their views on the war in the north, until they waited for the prince, only to find out that their ideas were wrong...... The crown prince had an extremely murderous aura on his body, even if his expression did not reveal the slightest, but this sense of oppression was almost condensed into substance.
Even the high-ranking and powerful people of the royal family did not dare to talk at this time.
"Your Highness, what about these people?"
Gonggong Hai looked outside, he didn't shy away from it, and he asked this question for the people waiting outside "kindly".
The prince sat in the carriage and didn't want to look at these "speculators" who took advantage of the war in the north to pluck up their courage.
He sneered and said expressionlessly, "These people ...... Since they like to wait, let them keep waiting. ”
......
......
"Liu Shi, the palace master of the Sword Lake Palace, went to the head of the northern city. ”
This was the first thing the prince said to the woman in the door when he pushed open the door of the East Wing.
The East Wing was as calm as ever.
Or rather, dead silence.
In addition to Xu Qingyan and the girl Xiao Zhao, there is no third person here.
The crown prince rarely comes to the East Chamber...... But perhaps because of "Taizong", the East Chambers have now become a forbidden place in the palace, but all the palace personnel who really understand the "Master of the East Chamber", even if they walk here, they will deliberately avoid it, and that Miss Xu is now a rare "powerful" figure in the palace.
Although no one knows what kind of power Xu Qingyan has.
But the prince "valued" her.
That's enough to be feared.
At this moment, the door of the East Wing Courtyard was swaying back and forth by the strong wind, and the prince stood in front of the pavilion, he did not push the door, looking at the blurred shadow of the window.
Xu Qingyan obviously froze slightly because of his words.
"Not only Liu Shi, but many Star Monarchs have gone to the Great Wall in the North for the reason of 'helping the war'. The crown prince Mu Ran spoke, "Shui Yue of the Academy, the blind man of Shu Mountain, after Shen Yuanjun launched the Northern War, the help of the demon clan has arrived...... Soon there will be a collision of demon monarch-level combat power, but both sides are forbearing, and you must know the reason for all this. ”
The prince paused slightly.
He said calmly: "After all, you went to the Purple Mountain Wind and Snow Field for ten whole days, and it took so much effort, but it's a pity that you still couldn't 'save' Ning Yi." ”
There is a window between the two.
Xu Qingyan's voice came steadily: "Ning Yi has a lot of friends, and I don't want him to die...... I'm just one of them. ”
The prince smiled and said: "Don't worry I'll be angry, after that night, I promised you, I won't interfere with you anymore, I give you enough power, enough freedom." I've always been a man of promises, but you've promised me a few things...... I am here today to remind you that you should not forget the previous promise. ”
The maidservant Xiao Zhao kept her head down, hidden in the darkness, and didn't say a word.
The conversation between the two did not avoid her, nor did they need to avoid her.
The sound of a slow window lifting.
In front of the prince's eyes, a peerless and stunning face appeared.
Xu Qingyan was expressionless and said, "I want to live like Ning." ”
The prince looked at the beautiful face.
He smiled silently.
Xu Qingyan is a very smart person...... The words she said had already made her understand that whether it was Jianhu Palace, Shushan, Purple Mountain, or Academy, these forces together, even if they could take Ning Yi back, it was only one person's will that ultimately decided his life and death.
Myself.
The crown prince sits on the throne of Tiandu, and countless people want to test his depth, and only a few people know one of his cards, or a few hole cards.
For some special reasons...... Xu Qingyan is one of the few people who knows him very well.
If the prince is willing to nod.
Then this matter can be regarded as truly safe.
So she spoke.
Xu Qingyan knows that at this "delicate" moment...... The crown prince would not refuse her request.
"Yes. ”
Sure enough, the prince was very neat and straightforward, and said directly: "I can agree to your request......"
Speaking of the latter, there was a noticeable pause in his tone.
Xu Qingyan raised his eyebrows.
The prince smiled, "But in return, I also have a request. ”
