On the ship, several men and women with a very high status in the imperial capital, as before, mentioned the legendary "eldest prince", and they couldn't stop talking. [Literature] This time, however, it came to an unusually abrupt end.

Qi Jie, among the crowd, looked at the figure holding the sword standing under the star-picking tower, among the floating snow that fell from the sky.

Discovering his abnormality, Qi Xuanxuan, the county lord, the noble girl, and the two princes all looked in the direction of his gaze, and were slightly stunned when they saw the person standing under the Star Picking Tower.

Because at this time, the carriages that enter the Star Picking Tower are basically allowed to pass, and ordinary vehicles that have not been informed of the Treasure Appreciation Association in advance cannot enter the open space in the square in front of the Star Picking Tower, so this section of the road can only be walked. Therefore, in the case of many gorgeous carriages entering and exiting the bustling river, the figures walking on the top appeared extremely abrupt and eye-catching.

Yang Ze, Zong Shou, and Wen Quan stood in the snowy square, and the footprints of the three of them looked out of place among the tracks of the carriages that ploughed the snow all around.

After the carriages carrying the Imperial Capital Wang clan were granted, they still had the same momentum as they entered the Star Picking Tower Square, and the carriages were running at high speed under the sufficient spiritual power, and everywhere they passed was a wave of broken snow. Therefore, the three people in the snowy world seemed to be dangerous and abnormal everywhere, and seeing their clothes swinging uncontrollably like a boat drifting in a rainstorm among the momentum of the surrounding traffic waves, it made people involuntarily sweat. I was very worried that in the next moment, those huge carriages would at least deviate slightly from the trajectory, and they would be able to knock the three of them away from the air, and their bones would be broken.

Any one of the chariots that could pass through this square was an authoritative figure in the imperial capital, and compared to those who could not pass through the carriage and could only turn to walking, it was obvious that the disparity in status and prestige was extremely huge. If you are accidentally hit by these carriages, you can only complain that your luck is not good. Ill-fated.

But the skill of the drivers of these carriages is extremely amazing, and it often seems that the golden iron horse is about to plow at a high speed trajectory to the three people. It was a wonderful turn to the top, and it flew past them in the snow. At the same time, by this proximity, the people sitting in the carriages happened to see through the gauzy curtains who the three men were.

The Treasure Picking Club stipulates that invited participants can bring up to three retinues, as well as invite one guest, and the guests can also bring their own three retinues to participate in the same as guests. Therefore, even if some people in this imperial capital are not qualified to climb the building, they can still participate in such grand events with those who are invited.

It is unseemly to walk in the Xingxinglou Square in such a winter and snow season, so the characters in the carriage want to get close to see if this person knows each other. If you know each other, you will be invited to your own carriage. You can also make a friend. However, the carriage that was speeding by, and in the end, no one knew who this person was, so it did not stop.

Even in some carriages, there were the pretty eyes of women observing them, and the sound of silver bells talking and laughing. At first glance. He galloped towards the Star Picking Tower, leaving only the ice and snow rushing in his face.

Only a small number of people, after knowing who the three of them were, secretly sighed, since they had offended Princess Zhiying, they dared to really go to the Star Picking Tower at this time, this Da Ye people are really an extreme side brute with a tendon.

In the eyes of these people, this is completely Princess Huawan, who wants to slap Princess Qingping hard. Hold down her wrist, which has been gaining momentum lately. If she doesn't come today, Princess Qingping will make people laugh in shame, and her reputation will be hit. And since this great warrior is here today, there is no good fruit waiting for him. In any case, these great warriors are all victims caught in the collision of the two major forces. Just poor pathetic characters. It's the same as all the little people in history who can be sacrificed. ..., if possible, the big man who has mastered the power can not hesitate to abandon his son and save his own interests and face loss!

The winter snow is gradually falling, and the early sun is blooming. [Literature]

In such an early morning when dust fell with broken snow, Yang Ze carried a long blade wrapped in linen behind him, and the two people around him ignored the snow blanket covered with black hair on their bodies, and they still stepped into the snow with only one foot deep and one foot shallow, ignoring the eyes and discussions in the carriage around them, and walked towards the Star Picking Tower.

The three of them did not talk, only the white smoke from their mouths, accompanied them in silence. Like a pilgrim traveler, steady and determined.

But this picture is enough to make people feel that they can't help but take their breath away.

At the crossing of the smoke and clouds, the car of Qi Jie and the others docked, and Qi Jie's gaze on the boat was retracted, and fell on the bodies of several men and women around him, and his tone was a little mocking, "This person really dares to come to Xiao Xiao Daye, and he dares to be so arrogant in the imperial capital?

Qi Xuanxuan smiled lightly, "I said that a person with a big yes is a tendon, and that's true! It's funny, I really want to see the look of remorse and pain in his eyes, and when the time comes, it's better for the county lord to hand him over to me, and I will gouge out his two eyeballs, which must be a wonderful treasure. ”

"Don't you want to be so bloody" The distant relative county lord and prince and noble daughter finally didn't like Qi Xuanxuan's words that regarded human life like a mustard, and covered his mouth lightly.

The two princes next to him showed interesting expressions when they watched the play and saw the end, "But we like such people very much, this capital is so calm every day, what's the point." I'm afraid that in this capital, there are not many people who are qualified to provoke us, it is rare to have such a person who does not know life and death and fights against the lord of Zhiying County, I can't say that it is just right for my brothers and sisters to try our long-lost sword, and have a good time!"

One of them is the prince of the prince, the other is the son of the princes, and they are two well-known young swordsmen in the imperial capital, and with their own identities, there are not too many people who are brave enough to fight with them, and they are extremely powerful, and few people dare to provoke them. Over time, no matter how good the tutor is, he will inevitably have an arrogant temperament in kendo. In formal settings, everyone must be decent. However, discussing these things in the circle of friends in private inevitably reveals the natural aggressiveness of men and the pursuit of excitement.

I believe that there are still many people like this at this time, they cling to Princess Huawan and holding the characters of the county lord. It's because everyone knows the strength of these characters. Climbers have the security satisfaction of being in the same faction as them. The adversary's fear of himself is the source of security. How to make the adversary afraid. Naturally, it is to clean up the opponent. The more you clean up those who dare to violate authority, the more you can make others fearful, and make you feel more proud of the superiority of your camp and circle, a kind of satisfaction and security.

Superiority and pride have always been born out of oppression.

At this time, there is such a person who dares to challenge the lord of Zhiying, Princess Huawan. Naturally, they are waiting to see a show in which the great men they respect will make a vigorous and resolute move! Without this, how can they deter the small, how can they shape their authority, and how can they show their strength, so as to make the climbers rejoice. Make followers fanatically loyal?

The carriage in front of the Star Picking Tower stopped. On it, there are old men dressed in fox green soap robes and leopard sleeves, or young people with middle fur and lofty instruments, or they are dressed in brocade clothes. A woman with a beautiful body. Greet each other, or stay to talk and laugh, or walk upstairs together to enter the grand event.

Those people from the scholar clan who stayed temporarily sometimes looked at Yang Ze and the three of them in the winter snow in the square, sometimes talking, sometimes shaking their heads slightly, obviously Yang Ze and the county lord of Zhiying were here because of his arrival. And privately sparked discussions. ..., such innocuous but powerful adjustment of this conference, naturally circulated among the people in the form of gossip.

Above the Star Tower, the lord of Zhiying is standing in a gorgeous robe, no matter from any angle or any way, today she is as dazzling as her mother, Princess Huawan, like a phoenix of ten thousand birds. Just in comparison. She is even younger and more enchanting. However, although she was filled with vanity at this time, she had only one thought and goal in her heart, that is, when the much-anticipated saintess arrived, the beautiful demeanor he showed was not much better than the other party!

But she was soon drawn to the private chatter in the crowd. The county lord of Zhiying, who was frowning here, saw Pang Chao leave the railing at this time and walked towards him.

Pang Chao looked at the look of the bear cub when he saw the toad entering the hole, stretched out his thumb and compared it outside the building, and said with a smile, "That kid is here!"

The moth eyebrows on the heart-wrenching face of the county lord of Zhiying were slightly raised, obviously not remembering who Pang Chao was referring to for a while. But then she came to her senses, and at the same time, an unexpected appearance and frost appeared on her face, "That kid next to Han Xue, he really dares to go to the appointment!?"

Only then did she realize what was being said in the whispers of the crowd.

and the people around her came to the corridor on the edge of the Star Picking Tower, and looked down through the guardrail, her eyes shrank suddenly.

Then he said to the person next to him with a cold face, "Stop him outside!"

Before, it was indeed because of Han Xue and Princess Qingping that she wanted to humiliate Yang Ze. But now with the start of the Star Picking Tower's treasure appraisal meeting, she has long forgotten about this matter.

The purpose of today's treasure appraisal meeting is to grasp the situation, consolidate the prestige of her mother, the eldest princess, and try to suppress the second princess Anping and Xiangguo Liu Shulou. It's best not to have any changes, but at this time, Yang Ze is one of the variables, seeing the whispers of the people around her, she immediately knew that the events of the day had spread in private, if Yang Ze couldn't enter the Star Picking Tower, it was okay, if he didn't know which guy who didn't open his eyes to enter the building, if there was such a dazzling guy on the Star Picking Tower, then in the eyes of all the dignitaries on the scene, where would his face go!?

couldn't help but make her slightly annoyed, thinking that this big man was really disturbed. If he had known this, he should have been killed for peace!

Naturally, a few people understood her words, and they couldn't wait to show their loyalty, so they sneered and quickly walked downstairs.

A carriage quickly caught up from behind and drove to the front of Yang Ze's side. The ornamental makeup on the carriage, as well as the respectful expressions on the faces of the guards who let them in, all showed that this was a carriage driving the Empire's Supreme Holy Land, the Immortal Academy. And on the carriage, sitting was the great cultivator of the Cangyuan Temple.

A carriage that drove the Great Cultivator of the Cangyuan Academy was naturally qualified to come and go freely all over the empire.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing Han Xue and a middle-aged man in a crane gray robe, fairy wind and bones, the middle-aged man glanced at Yang Ze who was covered by wind and snow, and his voice seemed to come out of nowhere, "This is him?"

Han Xue did not answer. Leaning out, he stood on the wooden couch in front of the car. With her hands lightly supporting the wood, Meimu looked at Yang Ze through the winter snow, and saw his appearance in the snow, it seemed that the snowflakes were a little cold, causing her eyes and face to jump slightly.

But Han Xue's voice didn't fluctuate in any way because of this, and just said softly, "You know the status of the Lord of Zhiying in the empire, so you also know that once you set foot on the Star Picking Tower today, you will become the target of everyone." With the identity of the lord of Ying, there are many people in the building who can't be messed with, and they will come to trouble you. You're going to be in a deep prison. ”

Yang Ze looked up at Han Xue. The snow powder pressed on the black hair fell and drooped and fell into the snow. His eyes were as dark as a lake, and he didn't seem to be frozen by these winter snows, but smiled, "You're here." Now that you are here, what reason do I have to retreat?", Han Xue almost wanted to stomp her feet, and in the carriage, it was her master Ying Longzi in the Courtyard, who was a great cultivator in the Courtyard. This time, Ying Longzi came with her, and he supported her with the posture of the Cangyuan. Even if it is the lord of Zhiying, I am afraid that there is no way to take her. However, Yang Ze is different, he has no power and no power. Even if he is very good, in Shengjing City, where there are many masters, it is difficult to stand alone. Princess Qingping has been away from the empire for a long time, and there is no foundation for her, and if something happens, she can't keep Yang Ze. Han Xue didn't know what kind of courage it was. Or stupid, let Yang Ze choose to go to the appointment of the Star Tower.

"Do you know that Zhiying and I have a grudge in the Courtyard, and you don't need to get involved at all. The grievances between Princess Qingping and Princess Huawan have always existed, since she is a person in Daye, Princess Huawan is even more unlikely to let go of her easily, and between the conflicts between these big shots, Ling is just one of the chess pieces. You may be abandoned and destroyed at any time, you are actually very smart, but why can't you see through such an obvious thing? Is it really for the sake of your so-called foolish loyalty? So you are willing to come and bear the wrath of Princess Huawan!?"

Han Xue was faintly anxious in her heart, in her opinion, these big people in the empire who were high in authority were not much warmer than naked wars. An ordinary little person like Yang Ze can only be crushed into ashes in this kind of crack, such a thing, the past dynasties don't know how much they have to experience, and how many nameless people have a grudge to bury their bones in the uncertain riverside of the power confrontation. Yang Ze is just one of the memorials, just a substitute for the dead ghost when the big guys clash. But this stubborn Yang Sanzi is delicate on the surface, but what he has in his bones is the recklessness of Daye's can't be boiled and can't be chewed!

Yang Ze looked at her very seriously, still with the kind of smile that could make her angry in the next moment, "Princess Qingping, not that kind of dirty politician. And I am here today not to participate in a contest, nor is it a contest of will. It's people here, and I need to ask them for something. ”

"When you first arrived, the person who offended the most in the empire was the lord of Zhiying, and there was no deep hatred between them, what do you want to ask her for?"

Immediately, her face suddenly turned solemn and serious, "Do you want to seek justice for Da Ye in the war when Da Ye was invaded by the Three Kingdoms, but you know that between countries, there has never been absolute justice." The current Frost Country will be under the control of the Celestial Princess, and it will keep to itself. Kashima also came to take the blame because of the pressure exerted by the second princess, and was willing to act as a vanguard for the empire when dealing with the Orthodox Church! This is a major event for the empire to negotiate peace against the Orthodox Church, and it is the empire's attraction to the outside swinging forces. Therefore, if you insist on going your own way at such a time, you will only think that it is to destroy the atmosphere of peace discussion. The consequences are devastating. What's more, you can't enter the Star Picking Tower! The sixth-order spirit treasure needed to enter the building can't find much in this empire, is there anyone who is willing to lend it to you to go crazy?"

"I said there are things in life that you can't escape. Since we have different purposes, we also ask Miss Han to get in the car and sit down, and we will go our separate ways. ”

"Ling!" Han Xue was speechless, glanced at Yang Ze fiercely, and then suddenly fell ruthlessly, lifted the curtain and entered the car.

The carriage continued.

Ying Longzi, who was driving in the car, opened his eyes from a calm posture, glanced at the most favored female apprentice beside him, and said lightly, "Don't invite him to the car?"

Han Xue shook her head, glanced at the blurred figure through the back screen, bit her lip lightly, and her eyes were blank, "He can't climb the stairs When he returns to Daye safely to be his little son, he may be unwilling, he may be annoyed, but one day he will wake up, be afraid, and finally rejoice that he was blocked out of the door today! (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
