"When did there be so many strong men?" Looking at the martial artists in the sky who were rushing towards Penzes City like thunder and lightning, the corners of Ling Xiao's mouth twitched slightly, and his eyes flickered. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The man was flying fast in the air, and he was about to pass over Ling Xiao's head, and suddenly let out a surprised "huh", and then his body suddenly stopped, and he landed on the ground in front of Ling Xiao.

There was still a hint of sadness in the old man's voice, and after he finished speaking, his eyes searched for everyone's faces and fell on Ling Xiao's face.

Ling Xiao took a step forward, and said in his heart that this old man's momentum was very strong, but he was very unfamiliar with him, and he couldn't remember when he had met such a Sword Sect powerhouse.

"I am, I don't know if you are ......" Ling Xiao nodded slightly at the old man and said.

"Ah, you're Ling Xiao?" The old man probably didn't want to fight, he accidentally bumped into it, and actually met Ling Xiao and his party outside Penzes City. "I'm from the imperial capital, I have something important to tell you, you see, ......"

Nangong Lao's life, born in a hidden family since he was a child, was also the pride of the younger generation of the family, devoted to cultivation for many years, after leaving the family, he came to the royal family of the Blue Moon Empire and became a royal worship...... It can be said that although he lived a long life, he was not very proficient in dealing with people. Otherwise, it would be impossible to break into Penzes City so openly, and in a hurry, he didn't think about what kind of pressure he would bring to the Ling family if his actions were spread today.

Fortunately, there were not many pedestrians at the moment, and no one saw his shocking actions, and he met Ling Xiao who was seeing him off outside the city. I have to say that this is really Nangong Lao's luck. Probably, it is also Ling Xiao's luck, after all, no one likes to have too much trouble.

Ling Xiao glanced at Huang Puyue and Isha in the carriage next to him, as well as the group of people beside him, and said lightly: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly, here, there are people I can trust." ”

Huang Puyue in the carriage felt warm in her heart, and her eyes softened a little when she looked at Ling Xiao, and she said in her heart: This guy also knows how to win people's hearts? Yes, yes!

In the carriage, Isa's pink little face had two touches of crimson, and in the end, she couldn't muster up the courage to mention the embarrassing words to Ling Xiao, but Isha also knew in her heart that Ling Xiao's brother was not unintentional to himself, and he went to the imperial capital on this trip, and personally sent him out of the city, and agreed to meet in the imperial capital when the time came......

Nangong Lao pondered for a while, and said in his heart that you asked me to say it anyway, so he told the story of what happened in the imperial capital directly. Rao is Ling Xiao didn't have a good impression of His Majesty the King, and he was not interested in the ownership of the imperial throne, and after listening to Nangong Lao's words, Ling Xiao couldn't help but be stunned.

Also stunned, there were also Huang Puyue and Isha in the carriage, this news is simply shocking, Nangong Lao has cultivated to the peak, and after leaving the palace, he followed a straight line, not even taking the official road, and rushed over all the way, and it didn't even take three days!

In other words, it has been three days since this incident happened in the imperial capital, but there has been no rumor of it...... You must know that the flight speed of those military falcons is not much slower than that of Nangong Lao, a sword sect powerhouse!

There is no news coming out, there is only one explanation, that is: the Imperial Palace Ouchi is blocked! That is to say, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... It should have been a success! And all the news was closed!

Ling Xiao was so shocked that he didn't say anything for a long time, and suddenly heard a baby's cry coming from Nangong Lao's arms, and suddenly came to his senses: "This ...... This is the Three Princes?"

Nangong Lao nodded, looked at the baby in his arms, the old face showed a trace of kindness, and said: "Along the way, I have also suffered this child, I can't find a nursing mother, I can only find some milk from cows and sheep to feed him, fortunately, the third prince is not picky." As he spoke, the old man's face suddenly stiffened, and he smiled a little embarrassedly: "This little guy is urinating again." ”

"Oh, that's an interesting little kid, show it to us. In the carriage, Huang Puyue said softly, and it seemed that she liked children very much.

Except for Ling Xiao, Nangong Lao didn't trust others, His Majesty said at that time that the third prince could only be handed over to Ling Xiao......! Wishes!

Thinking that His Majesty the King was likely to have died with ten thousand arrows now, Nangong Lao's heart would be tightened, and he thought to himself: When this is over, he must return to the imperial capital, find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Li Wuzhi, and take his life with his own hands...... Those have nothing to do with him!

There are only two things to do: one is to hand over the child to this Ling Xiao. Second, for His Majesty the King...... Settle an old score!

Therefore, Nangong Lao shook his head, and over there, Ling Xiao also said in a deep voice at the same time: "Xiaoyue, don't speak. Ignoring Huang Puyue, who was a little unhappy, Ling Xiao looked at the dusty Nangong Elder and said, "According to what you said, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has succeeded in killing his father, so now in the Blue Moon Empire, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already the king?"

Nangong Lao nodded, and said with a sad face: "It's all because I came too late with Rong Lao." ”

Ling Xiaoxin said: If the other party really has more than three Sword Sect powerhouses, even if you are always by His Majesty's side, it will be useless!

"I can't pick up this kid. Ling Xiao thought for a moment before saying.

Huang Puyue over there, just now I just saw the child crying pitifully, the woman's maternal instinct asked her to want to hug the child and coax him, seeing Ling Xiao's refusal, she thought of the key to the problem in a blink of an eye, and said in her heart: If it were me, I wouldn't dare to pick up this child, although it may mean that it is a great honor, but it is the same...... This is also a big trouble!

"Huh?" Nangong Lao was stunned there with the baby in his arms, he didn't expect that Ling Xiao would refuse to accept the third prince, because he had only thought about how to put the third prince into Ling Xiao's hands, but he had never considered the question of whether people would want it. Nangong Lao coughed twice, an unhealthy flush appeared on the old man's face, and said, "This, this is His Majesty's last wish......"

"Yes, but I, there is really no reason to hold an incomparably noble prince in my own hands, there are still many people with royal blood in this empire, why can't it be my turn to feed him, right?" Ling Xiao had already seen that this old man was probably not much better than himself in terms of human feelings and sophistication, and Ling Xiao, who had also been in the cultivation world for many years, knew in his heart that some cultivators who had cultivated for thousands of years and were strong and powerful were also ignorant of human feelings and sophistication, so he did not embarrass Nangong Lao too much, but continued patiently.

"If I take the three princes in and be known by others, what will I think of my Ling family, and what will I think of Ling Xiao? In the words of Nangong Lao, now, the throne has been occupied by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but you handed over the three princes to me and told me that His Majesty the King has a will to make the three princes kings, don't you want me to rebel?"

"This ...... This...... This is King Qin, is to clear the Xiaoxiao ......" said in the end, Nangong Lao himself was a little unconfident, yes, anyone with a discerning eye will know that the death of His Majesty the King and the Queen is strange, two healthy people, how can they say that they are gone, but who is the crown prince? He is the one who has the famous and righteous succession to the throne! He said that the king and the queen died in an accident, that is an accident!

Could anyone else dare to jump out and shout for His Majesty the King? Even if there is that kind of bold person, what use can that be? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is guarded by several Sword Sect powerhouses, and there is a hidden family behind him to support him, and at the same time, the turmoil in the royal family is also a matter of his surname Li, if someone else interferes, then the Li family in the Western Regions will probably not only not appreciate it, but will also jump out to accuse the person who interferes against the plot and intends to get involved in the Li family!

This kind of trouble, Ling Xiao can't hide it, Ling Xiao knows very well in his heart, don't look at His Royal Highness the Prince's hatred for his own family, but if he takes the initiative to find trouble, the prince will never be stupid to come and take the initiative to provoke himself!

Nangong Lao was stunned there, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and the cry of the baby in his arms became louder and louder, as if he knew his tragic fate.

Ling Xiao's face was flat, he had seen a lot of life and death, it was nothing more than reincarnation, under the way of heaven, everyone had their own chances, and they couldn't force it.

Huang Puyue and Isha were a little soft-hearted by the baby's crying, and Huang Puyue couldn't help but say, "Nangong senior, I have a suggestion, I don't know if you want to hear it?"

Nangong Lao's heart was already in a mess at this moment, and when he heard the words, he said, "Miss has something to say, please speak." ”

Huang Puyue smiled indifferently and said, "Does Nangong's predecessor want this kid to become the emperor of the empire in the future, or do you want him to be an ordinary person and live a peaceful life!"

Nangong Lao is just a little more sophisticated, but it doesn't mean that he has a bad brain, he suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, and said: "Your Majesty, entrust the third prince to me, and it is pointed out that he is the future king of the empire......

"If that's the case, I advise you to be old, let's take this child with you......" Huang Puyue said softly: "Don't you also have a hidden family behind you, take the child back to cultivate for thirty or fifty years, plus the power behind you, perhaps, you can also restore the country, if it is in Penzes City...... You're obviously sending us a big problem. ”

Nangong Lao's face was hesitant, with his advanced age, with an infant baby, where could he go? There is a family behind him, but that family, not to mention that it is not as powerful as the Li family in the Western Regions, I am afraid, it is not as powerful as His Royal Highness the Prince's new family. Therefore, if he were to go back with such a big trouble, those people in the family would definitely not agree!

Nangong Lao sighed and said: "Now, His Second Highness may have also been poisoned, or not, Marquis Ling Xiao, if you can adopt this child, his future will naturally be up to you! Handing him over to you is also His Majesty's last wish, I hope you can agree, old man...... Get down on your knees!"

Nangong Lao said, bending his knees to kneel down for Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao frowned, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, a soft force came out.

Nangong Lao was shocked to find that he couldn't even kneel if he wanted to! What level of strength had this Ling Xiao reached? Why couldn't he feel the slightest fluctuation of internal force from him?

"Elder Nangong, why are you so troubled, I Ling Xiao is very sympathetic to your experience, but you have sent the child to me so openly, think about it yourself, are you helping me or are you harming me?" Ling Xiao said lightly: "Although I am not afraid of His Royal Highness the Prince, His Majesty must have thought of this, however, I have never had a good impression of the people who want to use me, His Majesty the King ...... When I was dying, you didn't forget to put me along, thinking that I would be greedy for power and raise the three princes into a puppet king? And then this will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the Li family in the Western Regions, and when the time comes, you will be watching me go to war with the Li family in the Western Regions?"

Ling Xiao's words, Nangong Lao was speechless, that's right, he and Rong Lao both know His Majesty's temperament very well, and they belong to the kind of people who will think about calculating a few people even if they die.

At this time, Ling Xiao asked softly, "Does anyone know where the third prince was taken by you?"

Hearing this, Nangong Lao shook his head and said: "The old man still has this bit of self-confidence, and along the way, most of them are walking away from people, and almost no one knows that I am still holding a child." ”

Ling Xiao glanced at Nangong Lao who was wearing a big robe, and it was true that as long as he put the child in his clothes, he couldn't see it at all. Besides, Nangong Lao's strength is very strong after all, he said that no one noticed, and he would not lie.

Elder Nangong continued: "It's just that when you arrive in this Penzes City, you are old...... In the excitement, I thought about seeing the Marquis as soon as possible, and forgot to cover it up, alas......"

Ling Xiao sighed lightly and said, "Let's go back to the house first! There are people coming and going on this official road, and Nangong Lao has also worked hard all the way, go and rest." ”

Nangong Lao was overjoyed when he heard this, knowing that Ling Xiao finally agreed to his request, originally he didn't see this matter as difficult, but when he was analyzed by others, he was also a little ashamed, indeed, taking in the third prince was not at all good for Ling Xiao, who was already very strong.

Although people didn't say that, but this is the case, now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not take the initiative to provoke Ling Xiao at all, let alone provoke the Ling family. Both sides will be careful to maintain this balance, but if a prince with the jade seal of the country and the king's secret decree appears in Ling Xiao's territory and is known, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will have to fight against Ling Xiao to the end, even if he is afraid of Ling Xiao.

After all, there is no one who wants an extremely strong opponent for their future.

Because of the appearance of this incident, the trip of Isha and Huang Puyue to the imperial capital was also temporarily canceled, as soon as Ling Xiao returned to the mansion, Meng Li appeared in front of him, in the secret room, Meng Li took out a secret letter from the imperial capital, and a secret letter from the military camp by the West Lake, which has not yet been opened, it should be Ling Xiao's father, General Ling Tianxiao.

Meng Li knew Ling Xiao's habits, and said directly: "Young master, something big happened in the imperial capital, His Majesty the King and the Queen Mother were accidentally burned to death by fire in their sleep three days ago, it is said that His Majesty the King was assassinated, someone in His Majesty's dinner, overdose of sleeping drugs, so that His Majesty the King couldn't wake up, the person who drugged said that he had found it, but he committed suicide in fear of sin, on his body, he found a private letter from the King of the South, and after identification, the letter was indeed written by the King of the South himself!" Alas, the whole thing is confusing, and I don't believe that anyway. However, now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ascended the throne, the whole country mourns. ”

Ling Xiao nodded, and then asked, "Where is the King of the South?"

Meng Li smiled bitterly and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, what a good means......! He also committed suicide in fear of sin. ”

"This is simply a ridiculous joke in the world!" Ling Xiao sneered: "Is it true that the prince is an idiot in the world?"

"It's an idiot, but he's on the throne as he wished. Meng Li sighed lightly and said: "Everyone in the world is known as the Southern King Wen Taowuluo, who is a hero, but I didn't expect that the real winner is His Royal Highness the Prince, who has been low-key and forbearant for so many years, so this is a ...... It's better to keep a low profile. ”

Ling Xiao nodded: "That's right, but right now, we have a big trouble here!"

After Meng Li learned about it, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "There can be such a thing, so how does the young master plan to deal with it?"

Ling Xiao said with a smile: "Originally, I didn't plan to accept this trouble, but now I have changed my mind, hehe, it is good to leave a shocking trouble for His Royal Highness the Prince, so that even if he is on the throne, he will be uneasy all day long, the Blue Moon Empire has passed down the jade seal of the country for more than 1,450 years in our hands, sooner or later, it will deal a fatal blow to His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Meng Li nodded: "The identity of the three princes ......"

"It's okay to be raised as an orphan, anyway, we have adopted a lot of orphans now. Ling Xiao replied lightly.

Meng Li nodded, understanding what Ling Xiao meant.

Nangong Lao over there waited anxiously, and finally got Ling Xiao's reply, and at the same time, Ling Xiao was completely relieved after reading His Majesty's edict, which was written clearly: The prince was disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust, killing his father and mother...... The Emperor is located in the third prince Li Wuxiao......

After Nangong Lao understood his wish, he secretly left the Marquis' Mansion that night, his wish was fulfilled, he was ready to return to the imperial capital, waiting for the opportunity to assassinate His Royal Highness the Prince, oh, Li Wuzhi, who has now become His Majesty the Emperor!

Isha and Huang Puyue, as well as Song Mingyue and Ye Zi plus Ling Xiao Fubo and other Ling clan cores, sat around and discussed whether to go to the imperial capital to do business.
