Chapter 38: Intercession

"Li Defa, what's the situation now?" Nangong Lie paced back and forth in the imperial study from time to time, and half of the words he had written were put aside, as if waiting for some news.

An old slave with a pale face and few textures waited outside the door, bowed down and replied: "Back to the emperor, the eight major factions have broken the Hongmeng maze and have arrived at the entrance of Hongmeng Valley. ”

"Good!" Nangong Lie's face trembled, and although he didn't laugh, he couldn't help but clap his hands.

He said secretly: The people of the secret mansion really have the means, and they can actually break through the Hongmeng Great Array. But when I think about it again, if such a mysterious organization can't be controlled, wouldn't it be like Hongmeng? However, it is a good thing to get rid of Hongmeng first with their hands, and then slowly plan.

"Your Majesty!" Li Defa did not retreat after speaking, and his expression was a little hesitant.

Nangong Lie said: "What else is going on? ”

"Uh-" Li Defa paused for a moment and said: "The third prince asks to see the emperor!" ”

"Oh, what about others?" Nangong Lie was eagerly paying attention to the affairs of Hongmeng Valley at the moment, as if he didn't have much energy to deal with other personnel, so he ordered Li Defa not to see anyone else, but when his son came, he couldn't turn him away.

Li Defa replied: "The third prince has been standing outside for two hours, and there are many mosquitoes outside......

"Alright, let him in!" Nangong Lie sat down and picked up a cup of tea, but he didn't bother to sip it.

When Nangong Qing came in, seeing several mosquito bags swollen on his face, Nangong Lie's face softened.

"Father, the son wants to ask his father for something!" Nangong Qing knelt down and said: "Ask my father to stay with Tu Jingyao's life!" ”

As soon as the words came out, Nangong Lie slammed his chair and stood up: "How do you know that I am going to destroy Hongmeng Valley?" ”

Nangong Qing still knelt on the ground and replied calmly: "Hongmeng is my Dali's trouble, and it must be removed." And if it weren't for the emperor's instructions, the eight major factions would definitely not be reckless! Besides, the eyes and ears of the sons and daughters were given by their fathers, and there is no reason to let them be dusted! Being able to push this matter is also a testament to the talent of the emperor! Although it is less than one-tenth of yours, it is enough for Yu Erchen! ”

Nangong Liefu sat upright again, his face was still gloomy, but the atmosphere in the imperial study was quietly eased by Nangong Qing's words.

"Hey, my four sons, the eldest is too honest, the second is too weak, and the fourth is still in infancy, only you are the most suitable for me!" Nangong Lie stroked his palms and sighed: "Only you are the most suitable for the position of Prince Da Li!" ”

"Erchen is ashamed!" Nangong Qing hurriedly said: "Father, you are in the prime of life, and it is far from the time to establish a prince, besides, the eldest brother is more calm than his son, and the second brother is more careful than his son, and the son has his own shortcomings, so he still needs to keep up with the two brothers!" ”

"You said you were talking about Shentu Jingyao just now?" Nangong Lie said: "Is it the only daughter of Hongmeng Valley, Shentu Jingyao?" ”

"Yes!" Nangong Qing replied: "Father, it is the Miss Shentu you want to marry your son!" ”

"Oh!" Nangong Lie pretended to think: "I said that I would consider this matter that day!" Have you seen that Shentu Jingyao? ”

Nangong Qing nodded, her cheeks slightly red: "I saw it when I sent the post, and Erchen had a good impression of her!" ”

Nangong Lie was a little stunned, he knew that his son had a perverse temperament and didn't like to talk much, but he spoke and acted the most decently.

Now, the eldest has married a wife, and the second has taken a few concubines, but he has never seen Qing'er come to ask for him because of which woman he admires.

Unexpectedly, when I went to Hongmeng Valley once, my son, who was above the top, actually fell in love with the daughter of Shentu Qingfeng, the little girl who caused the vision of heaven and earth.

Thinking of this, Nangong Lie couldn't help but be curious about this Shentu Jingyao, if it weren't for Hongmeng Valley's refusal to cooperate, the marriage would have been decided, which not only fulfilled Qing'er's wish, but also controlled Hongmeng Valley, wouldn't it be both?

It's a pity, Hongmeng Valley has to kill itself!

"Father?" Nangong Qing knew that he would most likely not respond to his request, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope: "If we lead the troops to drive away those rabble in the rivers and lakes at a critical juncture, and announce to the world that it is our Dali who saved Hongmeng Valley, then leaving her as a five-year-old girl is not more conducive to us controlling Hongmeng?" After this experience, she is grateful to us and will trust me! At that time, it will be easy to explore the secrets of Hongmeng's inheritance! ”

Nangong Lie had this idea before, but he didn't expect that his third son would be able to understand his own mind, but he had promised the secret mansion that they would take Shentu Jingyao away, but Qing'er's words obviously moved him.

Yes, a five-year-old girl must be extremely easy to control, if you learn the secret of immortality from her mouth, wouldn't it be faster than searching for it yourself?

Previously, the secret mansion wanted to take her away, was it also for Hongmeng's secret? Nangong Lie suddenly realized, if it weren't for Qing'er's reminder, he almost fell into the Dao of the Secret Mansion, since they had broken through the maze, they were no longer needed!

"This is the Tiger Talisman for Troop Transfer, you immediately take it to see Sima Tong, transfer 5,000 troops, let Sima Yun go with you, and be sure to save Shentu Jingyao!" Nangong Lie said and called Li Defa again, asking him to go to the General's Mansion with Nangong Qing to pass on the message.

"Yes! Sons and daughters set off immediately! Nangong Qingxin let out a long breath, his eyes were full of excitement, and after exiting the imperial study, he hurriedly walked outside the palace, so that Li Defa could only trot and pant behind him.

"Hongmeng Valley is mine, and the world will be mine!" In the silent imperial study, Nangong Lie finally opened the smile on his face, he drank the cooled tea in one gulp, and his eyes were full of desire for immortality!

Behind him, on a huge map, in addition to Da Li, there are also the territories of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Qiulan Kingdom and even the Ling'an Kingdom, and every city and every fortification is clearly marked.
