Chapter 167: Invitation received
The invitation was sent to King Xuan's Mansion.
Nighthawk was still a little stunned when he first received the report, his prince has been a maverick since he returned to the dynasty, and he does not get close to any minister, even if someone takes the initiative to show favor to the prince, it is not salty, and even occasionally has a poisonous tongue, so that looking at the entire court, the prince basically has no friends, which one can still think about the prince?
But when he read the content of the invitation clearly, Nighthawk realized that it was no wonder that it was the King of Qi.
Speaking of which, King Qi is also a strange person, and it is bearable enough to be able to live in peace with the prince by saying that he wants to rob him of a woman and pretend to be nothing.
Nighthawk sighed with emotion and was about to send the invitation to the prince, but he happened to meet Mo Huaining practicing in the courtyard.
The moment he got closer, Nighthawk thought he had a delusion.
It was obviously a sunny day, the sun was in the sky, and the golden light was full of light, and there was still a thin layer of sweat when he ran, but he had just pushed the door into the yard, and before he could see where the person was, he felt a burst of cold air rushing to his face, the momentum was pressing, and it was cold to the bone marrow, and for a while, all the limbs and bones were like ants gnawing on them.
His scalp was numb, and he subconsciously activated his internal force defense, which eased a little, and then looked at it, only to see a slender figure in front of him, wearing a dark color suit, without weapons in his hands, and gesturing in the courtyard.
His body is as flexible as a snake, his feet are as stable as a bell, his fists are sharp and windy, his moves are murderous, swift as a tiger, changeable, turning around, tumbling and jumping, only to see the nighthawk dazzled.
What's more, as he made one move at a time, the dark blue internal force seemed to be attached to his fist in substance, and there was a tendency to gradually expand.
The cold air that just came to my face came from that internal force.
Nighthawk looked up and was even more frightened, it turned out that there had been a faint and almost invisible fault over the courtyard, above was a cloudless sunny white day, but below it seemed to be covered with haze, it was a fault that was forcibly divided by the internal force of the prince.
At this moment, the person standing in the haze looked indifferent and extremely relaxed, obviously this casual move can take the head of the person, but he was so relaxed as if he was strolling leisurely.
However, in the next moment, a trace of fierceness suddenly flashed in Mo Huaining's eyes, and without warning, he gathered his internal force in his right fist, and suddenly the wind around him was blowing, the leaves and flowers were torn and swept into it, and the air around him became cold inch by inch.
He slowly looked up, just in time to see the Nighthawk who had just entered.
Nighthawk: "! ”
As soon as the flowers in front of him, Nighthawk only felt as if his body had been pierced by thousands of ice edges, and the muscles of his whole body seemed to be torn apart, he hurriedly dodged sideways, dodging most of the attacks, but he was still implicated, he only felt that his heart was blocked, and he opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood.
The person on the other side still didn't mean to stop, and immediately changed direction after retracting his fist, jumped into the air and made a whirlwind, and attacked the wall next to him.
I only heard the sound of the masonry falling to the ground, and with a "boom", a big pit suddenly appeared on the ground.
"Don't, Lord Wang!"
Nighthawk had a strip of residual blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, and he stretched out a hand, and he could see that something might be wrong with the prince.
But his stop was obviously useless, and then he heard several terrible sounds, and the whole courtyard fell a few feet as if the ground had sunken.
Mo Huaining stopped, slowly retracted his internal strength, sat down on the spot, and breathed down.
Nighthawk's tears were about to fall, and the palace was smashed by the prince.
The essential...... Why only attack his house, there is nothing to do in the prince's room!
He thought that the prince had practiced to the point of going mad, but now it seems that it is not the case at all!
Nighthawk clutched his aching heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to shout "Lord Wang", as soon as the words fell, only to hear a "poof", a mouthful of dark red blood suddenly spurted out, impartially, and smashed all on Nighthawk's face.
Nighthawk: "......"
"Lord Wang, are you okay?" He cried with a sad face, he really didn't look at the yellow calendar when he went out today.
Mo Huaining slowly opened his eyes, and only then did he show a little tired look on his face, and he saw that the person in front of him had a bloody face and a helpless expression, and was staring at him with a pair of big eyes, so the little tiredness he had just noticed disappeared.
Mo Huaining stepped back silently.
"What?"
"It was the Qi Wangfu who sent someone to send an invitation, saying that the third day of the next month King Qi will marry the side concubine, and the emperor and the concubine will also be present, please attend the prince."
"Where's the invitation?"
Nighthawk spread his hands helplessly, "Originally, there was, but it was just broken by you." "The kind that doesn't even have scum left, blame him for his conditioned reflex, and when he senses the attack from the opposite side, he subconsciously blocks it with the thing in his hand.
But if he doesn't block that, it's his face that disappears, right? Nighthawk swallowed his saliva and waited for the prince to scold.
Unexpectedly, Mo Huaining didn't mean to blame, but just said "oh" to indicate that he heard it.
Nighthawk wondered, "Lord, there is no invitation, how can we enter the Qi Palace?" ”
Although it is impossible to be stopped outside, after all, it is a royal family, and the process that should be followed still has to be followed.
Mo Huaining lowered his head and thought for a moment, and his tone was a little regretful, "Since this is the case, then the king can only be cheeky and ask Princess Qi for another one." ”
"Hmm...... Well? Nighthawk nodded, and then realized something was wrong.
Although the prince had a disappointed expression on his face, how could he feel that the prince was not so unhappy, and even had some expectations?
Before he could think about it, Mo Huaining had already finished pranayama, got up and walked in the direction of the kitchen, he had ordered in advance, there must have been a decoction to comb the meridians there.
Nighthawk came up and asked, "Lord, are you feeling better?" ”
"It's better, the spring water works well." Mo Huaining didn't hide it, glanced back at Nighthawk, and showed a look of disgust, "It's you, you can't even catch this simple trick, it seems that you are really negligent in practicing after you come back." ”
Nighthawk said that he was bitter in his heart, where is the prince's move called simple, it is already more than fifty percent of his skills, he did not die purely because the prince's body did not recover completely, and he saw that it was his subordinates who left some love.
Besides, it's already good that he can dodge such a sudden attack.
He lifted his sleeve and wiped the blood from his face, and hurriedly followed.
When I came to the kitchen, there was already a black bird waiting inside, and at this moment it was taking a leisurely step, from time to time to glance at the decoction on the table, and frantically probing on the verge of death.
Mo Huaining glared at him with a look, and Qing Yu suddenly stopped, and screamed twice as if he was flattering, and then fell on the table with a snap, his belly facing the sky, revealing a bamboo tube under his feet.
"Lord Wang, there is a letter." Nighthawk said, ran to untie the bamboo tube, pulled out the note inside, and when he saw the words, his face immediately drooped.
"Duan Lan?" Mo Huaining walked to the table and sat down.
"Yes."
"Say what?"
"Nothing." Nighthawk was succinct, then suspicious: "But whether it really didn't find anything, or whether it was found but deliberately concealed, is unknown." ”
Mo Huaining took the note and read it again, and sure enough, he didn't see any useful clues, but looking at the scribbled handwriting on it, the gesture was weak, and there was a faint trembling, I am afraid that Duan Lan is not lightly frozen in the extreme north.
After suffering but not finding anything, Duan Lan still has no intention of coming back, since this is the case, let him find it slowly.
"Now the rumors about the Soul Leaving Jade in the Imperial City have slowly begun to circulate, although the emperor seems to have used means to suppress this rumor, but if someone wants to agree, it is not difficult, I am afraid that after that, someone will not be able to help but take the lead in the first move."
Mo Huaining picked up the bitter medicine soup in front of him, frowned slightly, and then raised his head and drank it all, the bitterness entered his throat, and he could only endure it again and again, until his whole tongue was numb, and it didn't matter.
Nighthawk looked at him like that, and felt as if he had tasted bitter medicine soup, frowned, and asked, "What does the prince think the emperor will plan?" ”
"Mo Huaiyu will never give away what he has in his hands, nor will he sit idly by, as an emperor, he must not be passive."
"Lord Wang, will this make the contradiction between us and the emperor turn from dark to light? The prince has not recovered yet, and it seems that it is not a good time. ”
Mo Huaining sneered, "What are you afraid of, it's not the king's person who is looking for the soul jade in the imperial city." "His people are in the far north.
Nighthawk shut up, feeling that he would be disgusted by the prince if he continued to talk about it.
At this moment, another person came from outside to report it, holding a letter in his hand.
"Is it a letter from Da Liang Kingdom?" Nighthawk could see the other party's dress at a glance, the people in the palace had already changed into the clothes of ordinary family members for convenience, and the other party was wearing soft armor and dusty, obviously coming back from outside.
The man on the ground said "yes" and handed the letter over, and Nighthawk opened it to look at it, and his eyes widened in an instant, and he exclaimed, "Lord Wang! ”
"How?"
Mo Huaining discharged a column of candies from the sugar jar on the table, and was selecting with a serious look in his eyes, intending to select the best.
"It's Duguyan." There was surprise in his tone, "Dugu Yan, I've come to the Water Moon Country." ”
Mo Huaining looked stunned, stopped looking at the candy, turned around and took the letter, his face was quite calm, but when he saw the words "Dugu Yuyao" on the letter, his eyes suddenly narrowed, his hands shook, and the letter immediately turned into powder.
"Wang ...... Rajah. "Don't be that excited, right?
Nighthawk knew why the prince reacted like this, the princess of the Great Liang Kingdom was simply the shadow of all the princes of other countries at the beginning, even the people of the Great Liang Kingdom knew this, and now Dugu Yan was coming to the Water Moon Country, and he actually took her with him, which was obviously disgusting to the prince.
However, reading the letter that they did not let the emperor of Daliang know about this trip, they only said that they came out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and Mo Huaiyu would not know about it, could it be that they deliberately hid their whereabouts and made a special trip to talk about cooperation with the prince?
"Princess, princess ......"
Ding Weilan was still in a dream, when she heard Ah Zhuo knocking on the door in a whisper, she thought it was a dream and turned over and continued to sleep, but she heard a "squeak" sound of opening the door, and she gradually woke up a little and realized that someone had come in.
She rubbed her eyes and spoke a little slurred, "What's the matter, I haven't woken up yet." ”
This dream-like tone made Ah Zhuo pause, and his face gradually turned red, "Yes...... The people outside, the people in the palace, were waiting outside again. ”
"What?" Ding Weilan frowned, "Don't they have to sleep this morning?" Didn't you tell them yesterday that the hour would come? ”
The corners of Ah Zhuo's mouth twitched slightly, "The little ones also told them yesterday, they may think that they came early to show sincerity, so some of them came before dawn, and some people were about to fight in order to come earlier than anyone else." ”
"...... "Neurotic!"
If you knew it, let Mo Lingfeng drive them out directly.
Well, since they wanted to accept their own training so much, then Ding Weilan couldn't live up to them, she sat up and stretched, "You go out first, I'll get dressed and go out." ”
"Hmm......" Ah Zhuo responded, through the curtain, she couldn't see Ding Weilan's appearance, but some beautiful scenery inexplicably appeared in her mind, so she blushed more and more and her heart beat and hurriedly retreated.
Ding Weilan closed her eyes and dressed indiscriminately, got out of bed to wash again, and came to the courtyard, seeing that Qingying had already begun to practice with Lin Zhong, through the door, she could hear the suppressed voices of the people outside, and an evil smile gradually appeared on the corner of her mouth, I really thought that you had been harassing outside for several days, and I wouldn't take the opportunity to retaliate against you?
