Chapter 220: Reactions from all sides
The morning sun rises, and Zixia Mountain is bathed in a light purple mist, like a fairyland on earth. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn the Zixiao Palace, Emile was listening to an old man's report.
"Your Highness the Holy Maiden, your subordinates just got the news from Dongzhou, Zhao Kan and others pretended to be Lin Xu to sneak attack the Guangwu Emperor, but they were captured by the other party. Emperor Guangwu not only helped Lin Xu restore his reputation, but also publicly executed Zhao Kan and others!"
"What did you say?" The table in front of Emile was directly smashed by her palm, "It's really not enough to succeed and more than to lose! It's just that they are going to destroy Lin Xu's reputation, who let them take matters into their own hands and sneak attack the Guangwu Emperor?"
The old man bowed down and said: "Your Highness the Holy Maiden, Emperor Guangwu is just a secular king, and he dares to attack the people of my holy land, and according to the opinions of his subordinates, he should be severely punished to set an example!"
"Hmph, but in this way, isn't it equivalent to changing direction and admitting that our Holy Land is pretending to be Lin Xu to do evil?" Emile's face hated iron but not steel, "The reason why Emperor Guangwu dares to kill is because he sees through the fact that we care about our reputation!"
"Then what are we going to do next?" said the old man urgently.
"Let's do it for the time being!" Emile sighed helplessly, "Although it didn't make Lin Xu's reputation ruined, it also made many people suspicious, which is enough for me." ”
"Yes, the subordinates are retired!"
"Little Ai'er, are you naughty again?"
With this majestic voice, Shi Shiran, an old man with a kind face, walked into the hall. Although the old man is dressed in linen and green clothes, he is handsome, with crane hair and a childish face, and his spirit is strong, and his body unconsciously exudes bursts of coercion, and a pair of eagle eyes seem to be able to penetrate everything.
Emile's originally somewhat lost smiling face was suddenly full of smiles, and she trotted all the way to the old man and threw herself into his arms, "Master, your old man is finally out of the customs!"
This old man is none other than Emile's master, and he is also the most important member of the Elders of the Zixia Holy Land, and the Sword Saint Guan Zhen, known as one of the 'Three Saints of Zixia'! Guan Zhen entered the Dao with a sword, and his cultivation has reached the realm of the half-step Spirit God, and he is among the top masters in the entire Divine Blessing Continent.
"Little Ai'er, in these days when the teacher is away, have you caused trouble again?" For Emile, an apprentice, Guan Zhen likes it from the bottom of his heart, and his words are full of love.
"How can anyone have it!" Emile said coquettishly, "It's not that Lin Xu of the Heavenly Spirit Empire, I'm afraid that he will really come to the Holy Land to find me, so I will find a way to ruin his reputation a little." ”
"It's just nonsense!" Guan Zhen scolded lightly, "Don't forget, you are the saintess of the Holy Land, Lin Xu's kind of goods are not worthy of your attention at all! If he dares to come, the old man will not be the first to spare him!"
"I know my mistake!" said Emile obediently.
Guan Zhen was looking at Emile with satisfaction, and suddenly his eyes froze, "Huh, your cultivation is ...... How could it be that it was still in the middle of the Spirit Emperor Realm? Could it be that the trip to Linglong Ancient Town failed?"
Thinking of this, Emile was full of grievances, and wept and told the truth of the matter.
Guan Zhen was furious when he heard this, and secretly hated himself for being careless, "This little thing can't be done well, Ding Huan's father and son are innocent of death! What is even more hateful is that the kid who pretended to be Ding Zhiping, and the unknown mysterious woman, do you have anything about their whereabouts? Dare to be the enemy of my holy land, the old man will make them regret coming to this world!"
Guan Zhen's forehead was bruised, his face was full of anger, he was alive and well as a living Hades, where is there still the elegant style of a generation of grandmasters?
"Woo...... Master, the apprentice has already sent someone to investigate, but there is no news of those two people, they seem to have evaporated from the world. ”
Guan Zhen's eyes suddenly burst into light, "Dare to spoil the things of my holy land, could it be them?"
"Master, who are you referring to?" Emile wondered.
"Little Ai'er, you just have to cultivate with peace of mind, just leave this matter to the teacher. As for that exquisite spirit, you have to get it, even if you wait another fifteen years?"
"Yes, Master!" Emile nodded obediently.
......
In the palace of the Heavenly Spirit Empire, Emperor Guangwu took a sip of tea, his eyes calm.
"Shadow Elder, is there any reaction from the Holy Land?"
Hearing this, Shadow Elder showed a rickety figure, bowed down and said, "Back to Your Majesty, according to the report of the spies, the Zixia Holy Land has not taken any action for the time being, and it seems that he is unwilling to publicize this matter." ”
Emperor Guangwu nodded confidently, "As I expected, for the Holy Land, reputation is far more important than a few outer disciples. ”
"But Your Majesty, even so, we still offended the Zixia Holy Land. Although I don't understand why the Holy Land wants to frame Lin Xu, I think they must have a purpose in doing so. Shadow Elder said in a deep voice.
Emperor Guangwu sighed lightly: "I don't understand what you said, but as the king of a country, I must be worthy of conscience and Li Shu." Lin Xu is kind to the empire, and even more so to me, how can I see him suffer an injustice and be indifferent?"
"Your Majesty's heart, old man admires!" said the shadow elder sincerely.
Emperor Guangwu smiled, "Actually, I am also selfish in doing this, Lin Xu's son is definitely not a thing in the pool." Having a good relationship with him while he is still in his fledgling years is an investment that I think is well worth it!"
Shadow Elder was a little shocked, "According to Your Majesty's view, Lin Xu's future achievements may even surpass the Holy Land?"
"What do you think of what the Holy Land is doing?"
Ying Lao suddenly realized, "Your Majesty, the old man admires! In order to deal with Lin Xu, the Holy Land even did such a thing, which shows that in their opinion, Lin Xu is at least worthy of the word 'opponent'." ”
Emperor Guangwu said leisurely: "Things have just begun, and the good show is still to come, so you and I will watch slowly! From now on, we must always pay attention to the movements of the Holy Land, in case they secretly use tricks against the Empire!"
"Old decay obeys!"
......
For the small Qi Feng City Lin family, a behemoth like the Zixia Holy Land was definitely not an opponent they could afford to provoke, or even an opponent they couldn't even dream of.
Lin Bugui had already issued a comprehensive gag order to the family, and no one was allowed to mention the matter of fake Lin Xu, and those who violated it were punished for treason! Everyone in the Lin family had a heavy look on their faces, and they knew that this matter was not trivial, and they all acted cautiously. The guards of the City Lord's Mansion, who witnessed the scene of the fake Lin Xu that day, even handed over a 'letter of guarantee' to Lin Bugui.
......
In a mysterious palace, Liu Xinxin, who was dressed in luxurious clothes, looked at the news presented by her subordinates, a smile appeared on her cold pretty face, and the temperature in the palace quietly rose a little.
The apricot eyes closed slightly, Yiren had a lot of thoughts, the cherry lips opened lightly, and the murmur was almost inaudible, "Little brother Mu Jiu, oh, no, it should be Lin Xu's little brother, I don't know if you still remember your sister? I don't know if we will meet again, and in what situation?"
