Chapter 242: Emperor Zhao
It will definitely not be easy to snatch the fate contract back, Qin Wu doesn't believe that Zhuang Heng will definitely return the fate contract to him, so the two sides will fight in the end. As for how to fight, a sneer appeared on Qin Wu's face, no matter what means the other party had, as a life magic master, he would definitely be able to eat the other party to death, so there was nothing to worry about in this matter.
The emperor capital has finally arrived, and Qin Wu has put most of the metal female swordsmen into the storage ring, this is the emperor capital, and if he brings so many people, he will cause trouble.
Qin Wu only let King Xiao's guards follow him into the city, and at most a few Ninth Rank Female Sword Gods were left around him.
As soon as he got close to the imperial capital, he could see from a distance that there were many people in the middle of the road to welcome him, and Qin Wu was surprised by such a picture.
It turned out to be the eldest prince!
Qin Wu was surprised, he didn't expect the eldest prince to come in person, it seemed that the news that Hualou heard was by no means groundless, and Emperor Zhao really planned to win him over and ease the tension between himself and King Xiao.
This time, the prince made the pomp and circumstance very large, not only the city gate was full of people, but also the army was responsible for opening the way. As soon as the convoy of King Xiao's Mansion approached, the eldest prince greeted him, and he was smiling, making people feel like a spring breeze.
"I have admired the name of the third prince for a long time, and I can see it today, and it is indeed a dragon among people. ”
The eldest prince seemed to like to laugh very much, especially that kind of affinity, which made Qin Wu, who was originally not interested in him, couldn't help but have a good impression.
Qin Wu said lightly: "Let the eldest prince greet him personally, my son is really scared." ”
The eldest prince shook his head and said: "The third prince is wrong, you are the recognized owner of the divine blood of the Bloodline Temple, and now the news has been spread by the Supervision Division, and you will succeed to the throne of the emperor soon, even if the father and emperor meet the third prince, you must show respect, and the little king is at best relying on the name of a prince." This time I was able to come to greet the third prince, it was really the palace that was bare, and the one who should really be afraid should be the palace. ”
This time, Emperor Zhao seemed to really intend to ease relations with King Xiao, he personally set up a banquet, and many people from the Zhao royal family came, including civil and military officials, and the situation was completely the same as if there was no contradiction in King Xiao's lineage.
It was the first time for Qin Wu to participate in such a grand banquet, and it was certain to say that he was not suitable, but he always had a cold face, and no one would take the initiative to talk to him. King Xiao and the Zhao family can be regarded as a great enmity of life and death, no matter what Emperor Zhao thinks, the rest of the people surnamed Zhao are still very hostile to Qin Wu, the third son, especially recently, many of their Zhao clan will have inexplicable problems, there is a legend that has spread, this is that their Zhao family was cursed by the third prince of Xiao Wangfu.
Since there is this relationship, where are these nobles of the Zhao clan willing to give Qin Wu a good look, the banquet has not yet started, and the atmosphere is a little awkward, fortunately, there is a big prince to mediate, otherwise it will definitely be unpleasant.
Qin Wu finally met the legendary Emperor Zhao, this legendary existence that caused King Xiao to be very miserable looks very ordinary, far less handsome than the eldest prince, but after sitting on the emperor's throne for so long, the invisible aura is still very terrifying, and a simple look can also make people's hearts awe-inspiring.
Qin Wu was a little disappointed, because Emperor Zhao didn't look like the Emperor Zhao he met in Jiuzhou, and it didn't seem to be a person at all.
However, Qin Wu can't be completely sure, after all, he himself is now a clone, completely different from his own body, so for the time being, he can't tell whether this Zhao Huang is that Zhao Huang.
Qin Wu didn't like this kind of scene, a group of people sat together and looked flattering, but deep down, he might wish you were dead. Although Emperor Zhao wanted to show favor to King Xiao, he didn't show it too explicitly, and during the banquet, he simply showed his elders' concern and said a few words about what he did with King Xiao back then.
Of course, it was not only Qin Wu who attended this time, Xiao Jinglong and Xiao Yuqin were all here, there was no way, as the children of King Xiao, they were also invited.
Qin Wu was not interested in banquets, since the people of the Zhao clan did not want to see him, he would not take the initiative to show goodwill. This would naturally make the atmosphere look awkward, especially since Emperor Zhao seemed to be very interested in Qin Wu's experience and took the initiative to ask questions several times. Fortunately, Xiao Jinglong played a round on the side, and said a few funny words from time to time, which would not make everyone feel really embarrassed.
Xiao Jinglong is very good at this kind of banquet atmosphere, he can be called like a fish in water, even those people of the Zhao clan who obviously have bad intentions can talk.
Xiao Jinglong never cared about such a thing as a cheek, so it was still very lively to have him at the banquet.
"Third son, there is a question that Xiao Wang has always wanted to ask you for an explanation, and I hope that the third prince must answer. ”
Suddenly, someone broke this harmonious atmosphere, he looked drunk, his face flushed, and his eyes looking at Qin Wu were full of uncontrollable anger and killing intent.
The whole banquet scene was immediately quiet, and many people sneered in their hearts, King Xiao and the Zhao family were about to tear their faces after all, and there was a good show to watch now.
"Third son, a month ago, Xiao Er's sudden strange illness, Xiao Wang invited countless doctors to no avail, and finally had to invite the life master of the Heavenly Master Building, they told Xiao Wang that this is the means of the life master. ”
The third prince looked at Qin Wu with a resentful expression, and almost gritted his teeth and said: "Xiao'er has been a smart and clever child since he was a child, and his cultivation talent is even better. With such a talent, the future is definitely the pride of Daqin, but now he has died in the conspiracy of the sinister villain, the third prince told me why!?"
Qin Wu said indifferently: "Your son was born in the first year of July. ”
Qin Wu's words made everyone's nerves tense, and even Emperor Zhao, who was sitting on the throne, had his eyes rise. As soon as Qin Wu said this, if he admitted that it had something to do with the death of the son of the third prince, Xiao Jinglong on the side also sweated.
"Since the third prince knows, why ask!"
The third prince gritted his teeth and said, he glared at Qin Wu angrily, and the killing intent burst out of his eyes.
The atmosphere seemed to freeze at this moment, and all the people of the Zhao clan looked at Qin Wu coldly.
Qin Wu was very calm, and in the face of the anger and killing intent of the third prince, he just said lightly: "On the first day of the seventh month, that year happened to be the day when the fourth prince of Xiao Wangfu was seriously ill. He is only eleven years old, but his strength has reached the third grade of the Great Dou Master, and he is known as the first day of Xiao Wangfu's talent, compared to it, your son is nothing at all. If I were to say that the fortune of the fourth brother was obtained by such a waste, this is the greatest shame. ”
The third prince said angrily: "What do you mean?"
Qin Wu said coldly: "I really don't know, or I'm pretending to be stupid, you haven't understood this answer yet, Your Majesty knows this much better than you." ”
"Hey, hey!"
Xiao Jinglong squinted his eyes and looked at the third prince, your eyes were full of fierceness.
"Birth, old age, sickness and death, it's a normal thing, third, what are you doing?"
Emperor Zhao spoke, he naturally knew what was going on, what he had taken, what he had to return, this was the biggest problem that the Zhao clan had to face now.
"Father!?"
The third prince looked at Emperor Zhao in surprise.
"Go down. ”
Emperor Zhao's gaze was cold.
The face of the third prince changed instantly, how dare he talk nonsense.
......
"This time, I invited the third prince over, my purpose is very simple, the god of wine to resolve the grievances between the Zhao family and the Xiao Wangfu. ”
The banquet ended quickly, and the dull atmosphere made many people flee, but unfortunately Qin Wu couldn't escape, as soon as the banquet ended, he was summoned by Emperor Zhao, face to face, his pressure was not small.
The corners of Qin Wu's mouth twitched, the grudge between the Zhao family and the Xiao Wangfu was a deep feud in the sea of blood, how could this be resolved if Emperor Zhao wanted to resolve it. What's more, Qin Wu didn't think that Emperor Zhao really wanted to resolve this grievance, both of them knew that the contradiction between the two families must fall, otherwise this kind of confrontation would always exist.
Qin Wu believed that Emperor Zhao must understand this, so why did Emperor Zhao still do this?
Could it be because of the death of the Lord of the Heavenly Master Tower?
Or was he threatened by the immortal master named Zhuang Heng?
Or......
Qin Wu didn't think that Emperor Zhao would compromise, so he was very wary of Emperor Zhao and absolutely didn't believe that this guy could be reconciled sincerely.
"Does Your Majesty think this is possible?"
Qin Wu's expression was as usual, although the emperor of the Great Qin Empire was sitting in front of him, and he was also a middle-grade Douzun, but he was still not afraid at all.
Emperor Zhao sighed: "This is indeed very difficult, so if the two families are not in tension, we need to work together to maintain it." The Zhao family has done a lot of things to be sorry for the Xiao Wangfu, and now the Zhao family is paying back all the sins we committed before, this is retribution, I have nothing to say. The people of the Xiao Wangfu must hate the Zhao clan very much, but there is a fate between our two clans, and it is impossible for us to really fight each other, and now this situation is very dangerous for the two families. I hope everyone will be restrained, if there is really a fight, the result will definitely not be what you and I want to see. ”
Qin Wu suddenly smiled and said: "The fate contract does bind the two families, but if Your Majesty is willing, this son can untie the shackles of the fate contract, so that everyone does not have to be tied up because of the shackles of the fate contract." ”
Emperor Zhao's eyes narrowed slightly, Qin Wu's words didn't seem to be anything, but it sent a signal that once there was no constraint of the life contract, Xiao Wangfu was afraid that he would really do it with the Zhao family, that is, he would not die, and he would rely on his ability. This kind of situation is not what Emperor Zhao wants to see, once the war starts, his position will definitely be greatly impacted, even if he wins, it will be a miserable victory, which is more than worth the loss.
Now because of Qin Wu's appearance, many of Emperor Zhao's arrangements have failed, so he definitely doesn't want to untie the shackles of the fate contract at this time, once this happens, he can't control the situation.
"The third prince wants to untie the fate contract I'm afraid it's very difficult, the lord of the Heavenly Master Building died not long ago, and now the fate contract is in the hands of some outsiders, I went to the Heavenly Master Tower not long ago, I want to get the fate contract back, but unfortunately I can't do it, those people are not willing to hand over the fate to me at all, I am very helpless about this matter. ”
