Chapter 204: Likeness
So far, the biggest disaster in Beijing has finally been solved. Now the matter on King Wu's side is over. The rest is how to bargain with King Wu later, after all, it is related to refining the elixir of life. Even if King Wu can restore the Dan Fang, but for such a big thing, I don't look for the original Dan Fang to corroborate. Even if the elixir of life is refined, how can His Royal Highness King Wu know if it has an effect. After all, the matter of immortality is really not easy to verify.
Just when Wu Mian and Gui were planning to take Xiao Liuxi, the king of Huainan, to find a place to rest. Returning or not returning suddenly remembered something, and shouted into the air: "Yan Zheng, man, come out!" You're gone...... "When he said this, a bald head poked into outside the banquet room, and it was Uncle Yanzai, the teacher who never returned to the past.
Yan Zheng glanced at it, and after seeing that there were no outsiders, he walked in slowly. laughed at whether he would return or not, and then said: "I'm not afraid of them, they are all my juniors." It's just that I'm afraid they'll be embarrassed when we meet......"
In order to take revenge, Yan Zheng once concealed his secrets and deliberately let Guangxiao's apprentice be beaten namelessly. In fact, the facts at that time were like this, Yan Zheng really wanted to hide his secrets at the beginning. But when I really got started, I realized that I didn't need to hide my secrets at all. Even if he used all his skills, he was not the opponent of Guangxiao's apprentice, and after that time, the degree of injury to Guan Wuming had seriously exceeded his expectations. was a little jealous of Guangxiao's master and apprentice. Even after many years, his magic has surpassed that of Guan Wuming. Seeing this character of the apprentice's grandchildren, I still have some drums in my heart.
When Guangxiao and Guan Wuming came in just now, Yan Zheng habitually escaped. I saw Guangxiao leave here with the unconscious Guan Wuming outside, so I had the courage to return here.
If he doesn't return, he doesn't have the heart to have the same knowledge as him, and he comforted Xiao Liuxi, the king of Huainan, a few words. In the end, let the marching Zhonglang general, Lord Zhou Ke, and Yan Zheng, who had protected the old Huainan King, and others leave here with the King of Huainan and go to the pavilion to rest. He said that there were still things to deal with, and stayed in the banquet hall with Wu Mian and Xiao Rensan.
When the king of Huainan took the people away, the old guy reined in; With a smile on his face, he looked at Xiao Rensan and said, "How is it?" Did you find that person? ”
"I'll do something, don't worry, you don't have to die." As he spoke, Xiao Rensan picked up the wine jug from the table where King Zhongshan had just spoken. After a mouthful of mouth-to-mouth drinks, the little one closed his eyes pleasantly. Then he continued to say to the return: "The person you said has appeared a total of three times, once each when passing through Changsha and Nanjun. Just now, when you were here and fighting with the Enemy Force, the man with the cloak appeared for the last time. That's right......"
Speaking of which, Xiao Rensan seemed to have thought of something. But before he said this, he took another big sip of wine, and the little guy continued: "There is another young man who followed the man with the cloak for a day. But that person should have found him a long time ago, but he didn't expose it, and he didn't know why. ”
"There is another person who secretly followed and asked the Lord of the Heavenly Tower...... "Gui or not Gui frowned, and after glancing at Wu Mian, who was also frowning, he continued to say to Xiao Rensan: "Let's not talk about this person, has the person with the cloak ever come into contact with our Highness?" ”
"No," Xiao Ren said categorically: "I just showed up a few times, and the second time I was in the Nanjun Palace, I took a look and left." If it weren't for the old immortal, you would have let me watch. I thought it was just a passerby, he was still outside when I came in, and if we joined forces to catch him, it would be too late. ”
"No need, he's long gone." After shaking his head slightly, his face finally returned to the expression that he was smiling at everything. After a pause, he said to Xiao Rensan: "If he can stay until now to understand, he won't ask the owner of Tianlou." ”
When the old man and the young man spoke, Wu Mian never interjected. His eyes were fixed on Xiao Rensan, pointing out where the cloaked man had appeared, and his eyes were staring at it without blinking. After he finished talking to Ren San, he muttered a few words to himself: "The Lord of the Heavenly Tower has appeared...... Hirohito, isn't it time for you to show up? ”
Early the next morning, the honor guard of Liu Xi, the king of Huainan, passed through the capital of Zhongshan Kingdom, and after leaving the city gate, he walked straight in the direction of the inner court. And the king of Huainan did not go out of the city to see him off, not even the palace. A few days later, a message came out from the people of the capital. It seems that the night before the honor guard of the King of Huainan left the capital, the Zhongshan Palace, which was haunted, scared His Royal Highness the King of Zhongshan sick.
There were two other bad news that reached the capital of Zhongshan almost instantly, and His Royal Highnesses, Liu Fa, the king of Changsha, and Liu Ze, the king of Nanjun, lost their heads overnight. The two bodies were found in their respective bedrooms, and the two highnesses seemed to have a premonition that something was going to happen a few days ago, and they both increased the guards in the palace. When the two highnesses died, there were hundreds of guards outside that night, but that's it, when the two of them were killed, there was still no guard who felt that something was wrong.
Just when the people of Zhongshan Kingdom were talking, Wu Mian, Gui Bugui and the honor guards of King Huainan had already arrived in front of the border, and at this time, there were already a bunch of people waiting there in the inner court opposite. Most of the countries that passed through before were princes and kings waiting here, and now they have reached the territory of the inner court, and this time it won't be Emperor Jing who came to greet him personally.
Just when the king of Huainan was thinking nonsense, a knight had already galloped over. The knight crossed the border directly, and Pegasus arrived in front of the soft sedan chair of the King of Huainan, and said to the ten-year-old Liu Xi in the soft sedan chair: "That is His Royal Highness the King of Huainan?" That is His Royal Highness the King of Huainan."
After seeing Xiao Liu Xi in the soft sedan chair and confirming his identity, the knight immediately said to Xiao Liu Xi: "His Royal Highness the King of Huainan, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been waiting in the inner court for a long time. Please ask His Royal Highness the King of Huainan and two close ministers to follow me to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"
Hearing that the current crown prince was waiting to greet him in the inner court, Xiao Liu Xi, the king of Huainan, did not expect it. At that moment, he hurriedly changed into his royal clothes, and then under the leadership of the knight, followed by Gui Bugui and Zhou Ke, the three of them walked together to the inner court on the opposite side.
When King Huainan approached, he saw a little boy about his age standing in the crowd opposite. Seeing that the little boy was wearing a red prince's costume, Xiao Liu Xi hurriedly stopped ten zhang away. Then he worshiped with the etiquette of seeing the king under his ministers, and just when Xiao Liu was making a big salute, the little boy who was about the same age as him came over.
The little boy picked up Xiao Liu Xi with his own hands. said with a smile: "King Huainan, everyone is the flesh and blood of the Liu family. You don't need this. Hurry up, Your Majesty knew yesterday that you were about to arrive at the Inner Court, so he ordered me to come and meet you. His Majesty had been fasting and bathing three days ago. Just wait to meet the King of Huainan and such a treasure in Chang'an City. ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is serious" Although he was in his body, the King of Huainan still bowed to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a half. Then he continued: "The elixir of life was originally born by Heaven under the pretense of Xiao Wang's hand, and then presented to His Majesty. This is the result of His Majesty's benevolence touching the heavens, and it has nothing to do with Xiao Wang. ”
After the two teenage children said a few polite words like adults, the prince personally held the hand of King Huainan, and the two of them walked together towards the carriage parked on the ground dozens of feet in the distance. However, in order to avoid taboos, Xiao Liu Xi slowed down his pace a little by half a beat, gave up half of the prince's position, and continued to walk forward.
At this time, the honor guard of the prince and the king of Huainan slowly followed behind the two children and walked towards the location of Chang'an City. Wu Mian and Yan Zai lowered their heads and mingled in the guard of honor, watching from a distance as two children of similar size walked side by side. I couldn't help but say to myself: "It's too similar......"
