Chapter 17 Activation
"The villain doesn't dare, the villain will go to paint, Her Royal Highness the princess, the villain retires! The villain retreats!" the young man kowtowed on the ground like pounding garlic, then knelt and crawled backwards, and climbed back to the door of the room, where he got up and walked out of the hall quickly.
"Alas!" Tang Ling sighed lightly, raised his hand, and slapped his slap twice.
With a snort, there was suddenly a big man in a black power suit beside her. The big man knelt on one knee, bowed his head and saluted: "Your Royal Highness Princess!"
When he drew the portrait, he immediately went to check it out and found out who was secretly working against the main palace. Also, this palace said that the eldest princess's mansion does not raise waste, do you understand what to do?"
"Yes, Your Highness Princess. β
"Go ahead!"
"Subordinates retire!" As he spoke, a black mist appeared around the man in black, and looking at his figure again, it had disappeared, leaving only a few faint wisps of black mist in the air.
This method of coming and going without a trace is the shadow drift in the dark spirit martial arts, and this black-clothed man is a rare dark spirit cultivator in the world.
The dark spirit martial arts was also listed as a forbidden martial arts before, and it was later carried forward by Tang Yin, the founding emperor of the Wind Country, since Tang Yin, the dark spirit martial arts was finally not classified as a forbidden martial arts, but there are still very few people who practice the dark spirit martial arts.
First of all, the Lingwu Academies in all parts of the Wind Country no longer teach the dark Lingwu, and the most critical point is that in the dark Lingwu, there is no such quick Lingwu Mental Martial Arts as the Lingxin Decision.
These two factors greatly limited the number of people who cultivated the Secret Spiritual Martial Arts.
Waiting for the black-clothed man to leave, Tang Ling walked back to the soft couch and slowly lay down on his side. At this time, a young man in his twenties turned out from behind the pillars on the side of the main hall.
He smiled flatteringly, grinned, showed two rows of small white teeth, walked to the soft couch, knelt down, and gently pounded Tang Ling's slender **, while saying with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, why do you have to let the people of the Duwei Mansion see the second prince, send the Praetorian Guard to investigate, and you can directly arrest the second prince." The dignified prince actually participated in the rebellion of the rebellious party, His Majesty will be furious when he learns about it, and in the future, there will be no one to compete with Her Royal Highness the princess for the position of the Son of Heaven. β
"What do you know, my father's love for Brother Yu can be offset by one or two wrong things. If you really do what you say, the father and emperor may not punish Brother Yu, but he will definitely punish the person who sent the Praetorian Guard, and that is the palace!" Tang Ling glanced at the young man angrily.
It can be seen that this young man has a very close relationship with Tang Ling, and in front of him, Tang Ling will behave a lot more casually.
The young man's handsome face was full of embarrassed smiles, he scratched his hair embarrassedly, and said in a low voice: "Her Royal Highness the princess knows much more about Your Majesty than Wei Chen!"
"Hmph!" The corners of Tang Ling's mouth raised, and she sneered, her eyes gradually became deeper, and there seemed to be two balls of essence light shining in her black eyes, and she said faintly: "If anyone stands in the way of the emperor of this palace, this palace will make him doomed, no matter whether that person is the father of this palace or the younger brother of this palace!"
The young man looked at Tang Ling, his face was covered with a layer of glorious brilliance, he knelt in front of the couch, arched his hand and said: "Weichen Han Ye, I will swear to follow His Highness to the death, even if my liver and brain are ruined, I will not give up!"
He rarely showed a serious expression, but soon changed back to the appearance of a hippie smile, happily and beautifully beating Tang Ling's legs.
The struggle for the throne of a country has always been the dirtiest, darkest, and most insidious and vicious, with children killing their fathers, fathers killing their children, and brothers and sisters killing each other. In the history of the Wind Country, there have been a total of three empresses, and interestingly, these three empresses are concentrated between the 100th year of the Wind Calendar and the 200th year of the Wind Calendar, and from the 200th year of the Wind Calendar to the current 386th year of the Wind Calendar, there has been no empress for nearly 200 years.
Tang Ling told Tang Yu that she was a woman's family and didn't attach much importance to the throne, which was also the reason why the Wind Country lacked an empress. Women are indeed inferior to men in terms of power, and they are not good at engaging in political struggles.
Tang Ling doesn't value the previous history, she values the present. In her heart, she has long had a mature plan to seize the throne, and now, she is also unfolding her plan step by step.
"Ye, tomorrow you go to the Duwei Mansion and warn those commanders. β
"Your Highness, what did Wei Chen say? It's still the same old clichΓ©, the rebel party in the capital is becoming more and more rampant, and it has infiltrated the Imperial Academy and the Lingwu Academy, wanting to shake the foundation of the empire?"
"No, you don't have to say anything, you just need to go to the Duwei Mansion and ask the Metropolitan Commanders how the investigation of the rebel party has been going recently. If the words are too clear, those people in the Duwei Mansion will deduce that the palace is deliberately framing Brother Yu. β
Han Ye responded thoughtfully, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness is the envoy of the Duwei, in fact, His Highness directly ordered the Duwei Mansion to do what to do, so why bother so much?"
Tang Ling shook his head and said, "Ye, you have to remember that this Duwei envoy of this palace is just a false name, and the Duwei Mansion will always be loyal to one person, and that person is not this palace yet. β
"Wechen understands, Wechen will do it tomorrow. β
"You stand down, this palace is a little tired. Tang Ling lay on the soft couch, holding his head in one hand, and slowly lowered his eyes.
"Weichen retires!" Han Ye stood up and bowed.
Let's talk about Shangguan Xiu, he couldn't keep up with the three men in black, and secretly said in his heart that it was a pity, he was really curious about the identities of the three men in black.
He left the academy and returned to his home.
Pushing open the door, Shangguan Xiu just took the first step into the door and realized that something was wrong, there was someone in the house!
Shangguan Xiu's heart was shocked, and out of instinctive reaction, he immediately exuded an aura.
Before he had completed the spiritual armor, there was a sudden light in the originally dark thatched house, and Shangguan Xiu looked at it fixedly, and there were four people standing in his room.
The middle-aged man at the head was the middle-aged man who had interrogated him in the Duwei Mansion, and beside him were the two men, one tall and one short, as well as Hua Die, who had just escaped from the student assembly.
Seeing clearly who these four people were, Shangguan Xiu's heart was also shocked. There is only one possibility for the people of Duwei Mansion to find themselves at this time, and it must be for the fact that Hua Die was exposed in the assembly just now.
He pretended to be surprised, looked at the middle-aged man, and asked, "My lord, why did you come to my house again?"
"Why am I here, don't you know?" Sven looked at him incomprehensibly.
Shangguan Xiu's heart was shocked, could it be that they already knew that it was the flower butterfly that they had reported? He shook his head quietly and said, "I don't understand what my lord said. β
"Shangguan Xiu, how long do you still want to act in front of this official?" The middle-aged man squinted his eyes and stared straight at Shangguan Xiu.
"I ......"
"Where did you go just now?" said the middle-aged man quietly: "I only ask you this time, if you dare to lie in front of the official, the official will leave immediately, but what will happen next, the official can't guarantee it." β
Shangguan Xiu's face changed, he lowered his head, and whispered, "My lord, I'm ...... I just attended a rally at the Imperial Academy. β
The middle-aged man looked at him deeply and asked slowly, "What happened at the rally?"
Shangguan Xiu subconsciously looked at Huadie and said: "At that time, Huadie was also in the assembly, and some people pointed out that Huadie was from the Duwei Mansion. β
The middle-aged man asked, "Who is the person who identified the butterfly?"
"I ...... I don't know him. β
"Don't you know, isn't that person you?" As he spoke, the middle-aged man suddenly took a step forward, and the distance between him and Shangguan Xiu was so close that the two were almost next to each other.
Shangguan Xiu hurriedly raised his head, looked at the middle-aged man of Shang Siwen's aggressive gaze, and said: "My lord, that person is not me! I didn't see Hua Die at all, I only saw Hua Die after that person reported Hua Die!" As he spoke, he looked at Hua Die again, and Zhengse said: "That person Hua Die must have seen it, it's not me at all, my lord, you can't wronged me!"
"Whether you have been wronged or not is not up to you, but the official has the final say. The middle-aged man put away his sharp gaze and said slowly: "Even if it is not your exposed identity, it is a capital crime for you to participate in an anti-aristocratic rally!"
Shangguan Xiu said: "My lord, I just received the invitation today, and I don't know what kind of meeting this is, and in the future, I won't go." β
"No, I want you to go back to the rally. The middle-aged man suddenly changed his words and smiled meaningfully.
"Huh?" Shangguan Xiu was really a little surprised when he heard this, and he looked at the middle-aged man in puzzlement.
"Shangguan Xiu, do you want to join the Duwei Mansion?" the middle-aged man asked with a smile.
His words made Shangguan Xiu's heart beat wildly. What is the purpose of cultivating as a spiritual martial artist, in order to get ahead, if you can join the Duwei Mansion, of course, it will be great.
However, is there a white pie in the world? Shangguan Xiu bowed his head and said: "I'm afraid, the Duwei Mansion is not something I can join if I want to add it!"
Sven smiled and said, "Now you have a chance." After a pause, he continued: "Hua Die's identity in the assembly was exposed, and it is impossible to blend in in the future, but the official needs someone to continue to stay in the assembly, to be the eyes and ears of the official, do you understand what the official means?"
Shangguan Xiu rolled his eyes and said, "What do you mean, do you want me to replace Hua Die?"
"Would you like to?" the middle-aged man looked at him intently.
"This ......"
"If you want to join the Duwei Mansion, you have to make meritorious contributions to the Duwei Mansion first, and this is the perfect opportunity for you to make meritorious contributions. If you don't want to do it, it doesn't matter, I'll choose someone else, but you can't escape the blame for the capital crime of participating in the anti-aristocratic rally!" The middle-aged man raised the corners of his mouth and patted Shangguan Xiu's shoulder with a smile.
