The king glanced at Ling Xiao, there was no expression on his face, he looked back at the aggrieved Li Tianqi who was crying, his eyes were full of love, he stretched out his hand, touched Li Tianqi's head, and then smiled gently: "Then tell grandpa, why did he bully you?"

"He, he...... He scolded me!" Li Tianqi hesitated for a long time before she thought of the most suitable reason, after all, she was a princess with a noble status, and she forcibly asked for other people's maids, which is indeed a bit unreasonable.

"Oh, then why scold you?" The old king's eyes majestically glanced at the nobles who were probing their brains, and those people were suddenly shocked in their hearts, and their feelings, too curious, had already aroused the dissatisfaction of His Majesty the King! Although he still wanted to know this gossip about the royal family, he didn't dare to stay here, and the group of people suddenly scattered, walked away from the distance, and secretly looked this way.

And the curiosity about Ling Xiao is even more irrepressible, according to their thoughts, His Majesty the King should immediately take down Ling Xiao and vent his anger to his granddaughter, because no matter what, Ling Xiao is already a big rebellion against a princess in this royal garden. Shall the dignity of the royal family be tarnished?

But he didn't expect that His Majesty the King had no intention of disposing of Ling Xiao at all! The old king glanced at Li Tianlie lightly, and Ulanto and the others, who were still standing behind Li Tianlie, frowned slightly, and Li Tianlie hurriedly said, "Grandson retires." Glancing at his subordinates, a group of people hurried away.

Li Tianqi was born in the royal family, he has not suffered any grievances since he was a child, and he has developed the problem of arrogance and indulgence, but his brain is not stupid, seeing that his grandfather actually dismissed everyone, leaving her and the damn man alone, as well as the two beautiful maids, his heart suddenly became uneasy.

Jiao Rou shouted with a crying voice: "Grandpa......"

"Well, now you can tell me what's going on. ”

Li Tianqi didn't dare to hide anything in front of her grandfather, let alone her surname Hulai, weakly said what had just happened, and didn't dare to look up at her grandfather's face after speaking, at this moment, she already knew that she would definitely not be able to do it today, and it was already the best result if she was not reprimanded. couldn't help but secretly glance at Ling Xiao, and saw that the person looked indifferent, as if even his grandfather didn't pay much attention to it. Li Tianqi was angry in his heart: Bad guy! What's the big deal! You remember me, I remember you, one day I will take revenge and come back, when the time comes, this princess will want you to live and die!

Of course, His Majesty knows what kind of person his granddaughter Princess Tianqi is, and knows that she has been spoiled since she was a child, and it is Ling Xiao who provokes her, this kid is neither humble nor arrogant in front of him, let alone you are a little girl, it is definitely useless to hold the princess with him!

What's more, His Majesty the King was still thinking about the words of the two Sword Sects, Elder Rong and Elder Nangong, and was worried that he couldn't find a chance to win over Ling Xiao, now that he had such a good opportunity, where would he let it go. Thinking of this, His Majesty's face sank, and he reprimanded: "Tianqi, you are already fifteen years old this year, and in another year, you will reach the age of Chengren, why are you still messing around like this!

"Ah, no, no, grandpa, Tianqi, Tianqi knows it's wrong. After Li Tianqi finished speaking, she cried loudly, turned around and ran away, but she didn't expect that even her grandfather, who doted on her the most, would protect the young man so much today, causing her to lose face, and she would not avenge this revenge, and swear not to be a man! Li Tianqi swore in his heart.

"Ling Xiao, Princess Tianqi is a girl, so don't be like her. The old king didn't ask a word about Ling Xiao scolding Princess Tianqi, but directly apologized to him in disguise!

The lord of a dignified country, the king of one of the largest empires on the continent, personally apologized to a young man, and when he said it, countless people would be stunned!

And Chunlan and Qiuyue, who witnessed all this, were so shocked that they even forgot to salute His Majesty the King, so that when the king turned to leave, Chunlan and Qiuyue, the two daughters, and the two fourth-order great sword master cultivators, were a little weak. Looking at His Majesty's somewhat emaciated back, and then looking at Ling Xiao's eyes, they were full of admiration!

This little episode at the banquet passed quickly, and the nobles seemed to have forgotten about it, but in whispers, most of them were guessing what the old king said, which made Her Royal Highness the noble princess run away in tears, in short, people can already be sure of one thing - the third prince of the Ling family, who was originally useless, seems to ...... Spoiled!

The most important thing about today's banquet is that the old marshal Qiuchen appeared in front of the public!

So much so that many young nobles didn't know who this old man was, and they were deeply despised by those nobles around them who had profound backgrounds! They didn't even know the military god of the empire, the fifth-order demon sword master, and the old marshal Qiuchen, and they were still nobles, which was really a shame for the nobles!

In fact, the aristocracy itself is a forgetful class, compared to the common people of the Blue Moon Empire, none of them have forgotten who the military god of the empire is, let alone forgotten, they can live a stable and peaceful life, and the old marshal of Qiuchen has made great contributions!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to have just finished his work and rushed over, just when he saw the old marshal Qiuchen standing there energetically greeting everyone, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, although it was only a flash, but he was still noticed by his father and a palace maid, and quietly turned around and left here.

His Majesty the King also saw the crown prince, yawned very sleepily, covered his mouth with his hand, touched the tears that overflowed from the corners of his eyes because of the yawn, and then forced himself to cheer up, and said: "There are orcs in the south of the empire, and we... Beat them off!"

The nobles below cheered passionately, and they all slapped desperately, this kind of thing, even if it is not a monarch who is very happy, will be very excited, right?

"In this battle, our warriors, they have shown their heroic side! Now, our warrior representatives...... The third son of Ling Tianxiao's family, the general of the Western Frontier of the Empire, Ling Xiao is on the field, and I will personally award him a medal!"

Ling Xiao was slightly stunned, feeling that almost everyone's eyes were instantly focused on him, and there were all kinds of eyes: envy, jealousy, surprise, disbelief, anger......

Ling Xiao straightened his clothes slightly, and then showed a faint smile to Chunlan and Qiu Yuezuo beside him, and walked towards His Majesty the King with his head held high.

The nobles seemed to understand why Ling Xiao confronted the princess in front of him, and the king didn't even deal with him!

However, in the hearts of more people, they are jealous of Ling Xiao's good luck! There are so many warriors who participated in the battle, how can they just single him out? Can he really represent those living and dead heroes?

Just a celestial veiner!

Many of the nobles whose children participated in that battle looked at Ling Xiao with pale faces, and their hearts were full of injustice and anger!

Why? Is it because his father is a general?

It's not fair!

As if hearing the silent shouts in the hearts of the nobles present, His Majesty the King smiled faintly, and then said, "Maybe you have doubts in your hearts, why, Ling Xiao can represent those heroes. That's right, all the people who participated in the defense war in Cameron Town are heroes! Every one of them is a warrior of the Empire! But Ling Xiao not only participated in that battle and performed well, but also, just a few days ago, he successfully discovered a fugitive wanted by the Empire for many years. ”

The old king said, sighing softly: "Most of you should remember the Marquis of Mancini back then, right?"

There was a sigh from the crowd, the Marquis of Mancini, who was also a powerful and popular figure in the Yanjing court back then! As a result, for some reason, he provoked Haitian, who was still a first-order demon swordsman at that time, and was slaughtered overnight!

This incident shocked the entire Yanjing at that time! Almost all the nobles were in danger!

At the same time, the entire Yanjing upper class people were angry, could it be that as long as they provoked high-level martial artists, they could not even guarantee their own safety?

As a result, a sword sect in the imperial city made a move and captured Haitian, and immediately, Haitian was pressed into a prison and beheaded after waiting for the public trial.

I didn't expect to be escaped by him at some point!

The whole person seemed to disappear and disappeared in front of the eyes of everyone in Yanjing.

As a result, a few days ago, a person was hung up at the entrance of Yanjing City, and then a notice was posted, saying that this person was Haitian, the wanted criminal of the year!

Almost all the nobles celebrated like a carnival of the Lion King, but they didn't expect that that incident was actually related to this young man, it was he who discovered Haitian?

"Haitian old thief, with injuries on his body, was killed by the Ling family's tiger with all his might!" His Majesty the King suddenly raised his voice: "Such a warrior, you wait, should you be rewarded!"

Those nobles were almost speechless by the shock of His Majesty's words, and the eyes that looked at Ling Xiao again completely changed their taste, even if they were originally jealous, they were stunned.

A second-order demon swordsman, even if he is injured again, how can he be ...... Killed by a celestial veiner?But when these words came out of the king's mouth, who else dared to doubt it!

Therefore, I have decided to make Ling Xiao a viscount and reward the fief Cameron Town...... "His Majesty the King's voice did not fall.

Then he heard an opposing voice: "Your Majesty, no!";
