Chapter 519: Borrowing Soldiers
Zhenghe Palace covers an extremely wide area, and as soon as you enter the door, you will be attracted by the exquisite and elegant pavilions around you.
It was the middle of winter, and most of the plants in Yunlan Country had withered and fallen their leaves, but Zhenghe Palace was lush and green, and the flowers were as bright as the eye could see, and the carriage walked for a long time on the avenue paved with white jade slabs and finally stopped outside a bamboo forest.
"Childe, His Royal Highness the Second Prince is waiting for you in the Rain Pavilion in the bamboo forest. ”
The eunuch in charge of leading the way stopped outside the bamboo forest and motioned for Merlin to enter by himself.
Merlin thanked him and walked down the path of the bamboo forest towards the forest.
In the depths of winter, Hongdu City is already very cold, and although it has not yet dropped to a freezing temperature, the wind blowing on the face is also a little stinging.
The bamboo forest was quiet, and the temperature was a few points lower than outside when he first entered, but as he went deeper, Merlin felt that the temperature around him was actually rising rapidly, as if he had stepped over the severe cold in a few steps and entered the spring with red flowers and green grass.
Merlin is now a martial king powerhouse, and the ordinary changes in cold and heat have no effect on him at all, but a few vague breaths have entered his perception.
"Martial Sect Strongman?1, 2, 3......"
No more, no less, exactly fifteen people, the lowest level of the Martial Sect, the most of the people actually have the cultivation strength of the Eighth level Martial Sect.
They hid in the bamboo forest, and fifteen extremely weak divine senses locked on Merlin's body, carefully probing his cultivation strength.
The corners of Mo Lin's mouth were slightly raised imperceptibly, after the second awakening of the Yin and Yang Martial Spirit, he could already hide or change the breath in his body at will, although the master in the bamboo forest was strong, but he still had too far to see through the details of Mo Lin.
Soon, a small hexagonal pavilion appeared in Merlin's sight.
There was a stone table and four stone chairs in the pavilion, and a slender young man wearing a purple robe and a dark red jade belt around his waist was pacing back and forth in the small pavilion.
"Mo Gongzi, I have heard of the name for a long time, and it is really an honor to see it today. ”
As he spoke, the young man hurried up to meet him.
"Your Highness, it's too polite for you to say that, it's Merlin's honor to meet Your Highness. ”
As rumored, the second prince really looks approachable and elegant, handsome and delicate, extraordinary, kind and gentle, if it weren't for the self-registration number, Mo Lin couldn't believe that the son in front of him was the second prince.
The second prince said with a smile: "After receiving Dean Huang's letter, I know that there is another peerless genius in the Ruthless Sect, and Senior Brother Mo, who is fighting alone in the Ten Heavenly Prides of the Wind God Academy, wants to come to see Huaiyi, but it makes me very happy, come, please take a seat." ”
"Senior brother?"
Mo Lin then remembered that the second prince had also studied in Fengshen Academy for a period of time, and there was nothing wrong with calling himself a junior brother, but he was close to himself as soon as they met, and this enthusiasm made him a little uncomfortable.
Mo Lin sat down with a smile, and from the tone of the second prince, he noticed that the relationship between Huang Tiejia and the second prince seemed to be extraordinary.
Tea sets were set up on the table in advance, and a maid filled the tea bowl in front of the two of them with tea.
"His Royal Highness is really the same as rumored, Corporal Lixian, approachable, there is no royal aristocrats at all, to make a long story short, this time I came to Zhenghe Palace to see His Highness, Merlin has three purposes, the first is to convey a message, second, I want to make a deal with His Highness, and third, I want to inquire about something. ”
After half a bowl of tea was put into his stomach, Mo Lin went straight into it with a single knife and said that he wanted to see Song Huaiyi.
"Oh, junior brother, please. ”
The second prince looked like he was listening.
Merlin asked, "His Royal Highness should have heard about the news of Emperor Wu's treasure, right?"
The second prince said with a smile: "This news came out of my royal family, how could I not have heard of it? In order to find the treasure, the royal family sent a large number of masters, and even my royal brother personally led people to hunt for treasures. ”
"The news I want to tell you is that your imperial brother, the eldest prince Song Huairen, is dead. ”
Hearing this, the second prince's face suddenly changed: "Senior brother, you're not joking, are you?"
"Dean Huang didn't tell you in the letter?" Merlin wondered.
The second prince shook his head: "No, what's the matter, this matter has something to do with Dean Huang?"
Mo Lin didn't look like the second prince was acting, so from beginning to end, he told the eldest prince and Song Yuanbiao how they besieged Mo Lin and how they killed them, avoiding the important and trivial, concealing some details and the news that the treasure was obtained by himself, and talked about it in detail, but the final responsibility was blamed on the dragon clan.
The expression on the face of the second prince was blue and white, shocked for a while, excited for a while, and after listening to Merlin's story, he sat motionless on the chair, and the whole person was stunned.
"Your brother is dead, the 200,000 army is also dead, the treasure of the Martial Emperor is actually just a dragon's lair, the treasure of the treasure hunting team was not found, but almost ended up with the annihilation of the whole army, since you received the letter from Dean Huang, you should know that he also went to Jinsha River as the captain of the treasure hunting team of the Fengshen Academy, if you don't believe what I just said, you can ask him." Finally, Merlin said.
"I believe in you. ”
The second prince finally recovered, the expression on his face kept changing, and his mood was obviously far from calming.
"The legend of the treasure has been passed down for thousands of years, but it has never been found, this time the royal brother used all his strength to find the treasure just to want to sit in that position, I have also been depressed for a long time because I am not qualified to participate in the treasure hunt, this news is too important, say, what is your deal?"
Mo Lin picked up the tea bowl and put it to his lips and took a sip lightly, before he said slowly: "At the beginning of this year, Song Yuanbiao took 50,000 elite soldiers to join forces with the masters of the three major sects to destroy my master's Ruthless Sect. ”
"Mu Hongwu, the protector of the country, is your supporter, and he is a disciple of the Ruthless Sect, the eldest prince is worried that the Ruthless Sect will stand up and support you in the future to fight for the throne, so he killed the killer and eradicated this most powerful hidden danger. ”
"I don't know if it's the meaning of the eldest prince himself, or if he has the acquiescence of His Majesty, it doesn't matter now, after all, he is dead, and together with the prince Song Yuanbiao, he all died on Qixing Island, so I don't want to continue to pursue your Song family. ”
After a pause, Merlin continued: "However, I will never let go of the people of the three major sects, although their treasure hunting team also died on Seven Star Island, but there are still tens of thousands of disciples left in the sect, I want to make a deal with His Highness, can you lend me 50,000 elite soldiers to help me destroy these three major sects? In return, I will support the second prince to sit on the throne, what do you think?"
The second prince's uncertain face stiffened for a moment.
He stared at Merlin's face and didn't say anything for a long time.
Mo Lin was not in a hurry, so he looked at the second prince with a calm face.
