Chapter 4: The Three Princes of Toughness
The Snow Dragon Guard is an awe-inspiring iron horse of the Majestic Wind Empire, which is directly dispatched by the Holy Emperor. Non-Xuan Realm cultivation is not accessible, the selection and training are extremely strict, and every Xue Longwei can be a hundred.
Decades ago, when the barbarians in the north were in a big war, the wind was frustrated, and the northern border city was about to fall, and a thousand snow dragon guards swore not to retreat, but they blocked the barbarian 100,000 soldiers and horses, and when the reinforcements arrived, most of the 100,000 barbarian soldiers had been lost, and there was only one snow dragon guard left.
Since then, the world has said that Xue Longwei is the world's first combat power!
Therefore, no one dared to stop Xue Longwei when he entered the Lin Mansion.
This is also where Liu Changshi's confidence lies in daring to directly confront Chu Tiannan and enter the Lin Mansion
"Announcing Your Majesty's will: Lin Tao and Lin Xue'er will set off on the same day to go to Zhongzhou to participate in the enrollment meeting of Xiongfeng Continental Academy, there must be no mistake" Liu Changshou sent the edict to Lin Tao, and then said, "Lin Gongzi, Miss Lin, this time it was the princess of the Silla Empire who personally named you to participate, in order to work together to resist the demon clan, so Your Majesty still hopes to be able to make friends with the Silla Empire, and I heard that Lin Gongzi has long been a person appointed by Xiongfeng Academy, and this is just the right time to handle the admission matters"
"Princess of the Silla Empire?" Lin Tao and Lin Xue'er looked at each other, he didn't know any imperial princess at all.
To say that he only knows one person from the Silla Empire, it is Xiang Sui, but that kid is just an ordinary little commander, how can he know the princess?
But this is indeed a good opportunity to get rid of the Lin family and the Chu family, and to stay away from the center, let them tear their faces because of this matter, and buy a seed of hatred in their hearts, which will sprout sooner or later!
"Gong Liu, but the murder of my child has not yet been concluded, and he can't leave yet!" Chu Tiannan looked at Liu Changshou gloomily and said
"Lord Chuzhou, let us ask, is the murder of the child you mentioned related to Young Master Lin, or is there any evidence to prove that Lin Gongzi did it?"
"Not yet," Chu Tiannan said after hesitating for a moment
"Lord Chuzhou, since you don't have it, what reason do you have to not let Young Master Lin go, could it be that you want to resist the decree" Liu Changshou saw Chu Tiannan's arrogant look, directly confronted the Holy Emperor's will, and was also a little angry, looking at Chu Tiannan silent, his tone hardened, and then said:
"Even if it is really related to Lin Gongzi, it is a major matter related to the joint efforts of the two countries to fight against the demons, we have to take this Lin Gongzi, and last time General Lin Yuelin was executed before trial, His Majesty has not been angry, and he is considering whether to investigate in depth."
"Hmph, Gong Liu, I, Chu Tiannan, am loyal to Xiongfeng, heaven and earth can be learned, if I find out that my son's matter is related to Lin Tao in the future, I hope that the Holy Emperor will make the decision for me and hand over this person!"
"Lord Chuzhou, the old minister will convey it to His Majesty"
Then, Liu Changshou waved his hand, and the attendants walked up with trays in their hands.
"Your Majesty said that since you are intersecting with the princess, you must not lose the national body, and you will be given a purple python gold robe, a delicate brocade skirt and all kinds of royal things to Young Master Lin and Miss Lin respectively."
When Chu Tiannan saw this, his face was extremely gloomy, is this His Majesty's attitude towards the descendants of a traitor! Is it deliberately done for yourself?
And in addition to Lin Youshan, the people in the Lin family didn't know the inside story, and they all thought that Lin Yue was treasonous, and the Holy Emperor would definitely not leave a way out for Lin Tao's remnants under his anger, so everyone hid far away.
A few days ago, I thought that Lin Yue's vein would inevitably die, but I didn't expect that now the Holy Emperor would take such good care of Lin Tao and Lin Xue'er.
This purple gold python robe and exquisite brocade skirt are specially made for princes and princesses!
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen," Lin Tao took Lin Xue'er to thank him.
"Lord Liu, when will our brother and sister leave?" Lin Tao asked
"Childe, Your Majesty means to leave immediately, but if you still need to pack your bags, we can leave tomorrow."
"No need, you can go now" Lin Tao smiled.
"Uh... , let's go" Liu Changshou was stunned for a moment, and then shouted.
Lin Tao was ready to leave, and he no longer had any nostalgia for the Lin family.
"Lin Tao, if Xiao'er's affairs are related to you, I will definitely find you at the ends of the earth!" Chu Tiannan looked at Lin Tao's provocative eyes and said.
"Lord Chuzhou, don't worry, if you don't look for me, I will look for you! We will have a period in the future, this period will not be too long" Lin Tao stared at Chu Tiannan with his eyes tight, and smiled slightly, and Chu Tiannan's heart was cold when he smiled.
After leaving the Lin Mansion, Liu Changshou arranged a carriage for Lin Tao and Lin Xue'er, thought for a while, and said to Lin Tao, "Lin Gongzi, the old slave has a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not"
"My lord, but it doesn't hurt to say"
"Zhongzhou is not as good as Nanzhan, the forces of various families are complicated, and a feudal official like the lord of Chu is just a direct line of the Chu family in Zhongzhou. After arriving in Zhongzhou, Childe still needs to be cautious."
"Thank you Lord Liu for mentioning it, but I have always been a person who does not offend me, I will not offend anyone, and adults should know that there is no possibility of reconciliation between me and the Chu family."
Lin Tao is very grateful to Liu Changshou for being able to speak frankly, he himself is very clear about these problems, but if the Chu family can frame his father, then he will definitely not take himself seriously.
Moreover, this father's revenge is not shared, and one day, he will overthrow the Chu family.
Liu Changshou looked at Lin Tao, in a complicated mood, but returned the salute slightly, did not speak, and made a gesture to the entourage to leave.
In the Lin Mansion, the Lin family has extremely complicated feelings, but the self-proclaimed family is ravaged by others at will.
And Lin Tao, who seemed to be a waste, was favored by the Holy Emperor.
Here, Chu Tiannan took Lin Ting away, and sent someone to quickly carry a letter to report the relevant situation to the Chu family in Zhongzhou in detail.
He knew that Zhongzhou had his own decision, and he wanted to let Lin Tao kill Zhongzhou.
On the way to Zhongzhou, Lin Tao and Lin Xueer rarely had such a relaxing time.
"Brother, legend has it that the women of the Silla Empire are all graceful and heroic among women, fierce and comparable to men, what do you say this Silla princess looks like, will she have big shoulders and round waists and fierce personality?"
"Poof~~" Lin Tao just took a sip of water, and squirted out when he heard this.
"No, no matter how you say it, it's a princess of a country, I heard that the king of the Silla Empire is still relatively handsome, and when I talked about cooperation, my father also saw him, saying that he was born extremely chic and handsome, and that the daughter should not be wrong"
Speaking of his father, Lin Tao was stunned, and Lin Xueer didn't continue to talk about it.
Along the way, Lin Tao was immersed in cultivation, and he knew that what Liu Changshou said was very right, so he wanted to improve his cultivation as soon as possible and protect himself and his sister.
Along the way, his cultivation has improved to the peak of the Heavenly Realm, and his divine soul is extremely condensed, comparable to the peak of the Xuan Realm, and his body that has been tempered by Dao Fire has become more and more powerful, Lin Tao feels that he can leap ten feet with the strength of his body.
This group of men and horses soon arrived at the outskirts of Kyoto in the Xiongfeng Empire.
Suddenly, with a whoosh, an arrow condensed the power of gold, pierced the air, and let out a sharp whistling sound and went straight to the carriage where Lin Tao was.
Oh~~, the arrow pierced the carriage and nailed it to the big tree on the side of the road, and it entered without a feather!
"There is a moment! Resist the enemy! The commander of the Snow Dragon Guard immediately instructed the Snow Dragon Guard to defend their respective carriages, and looked around in a defensive posture. There was not the slightest panic.
At this time, several young men in brocade robes rode over, and the leader was not very old, but he had a noble temperament, his eyes were cold, he was wearing a black gold headband, he was wearing a purple gold python robe, and he was a tall horse, the horse's fur was very smooth, and the reflected sunlight was very dazzling, and it was a level higher than the others at a glance.
Seeing that Xue Longwei was also suspicious, he didn't take it to heart.
At this moment, Xue Longwei was ready to attack.
"Slow" Liu Changshou had already gotten out of the car at this moment, said to the commander of the Snow Dragon Guard, and then walked up to the brocade-clothed young man, pointed to the arrow and said, "Fourth prince, this is a distinguished guest invited by His Majesty, who are you?" ”
"Liu Changshi, I was hunting just now, and I didn't notice that a convoy was passing by, so it was a mistake." The four princes replied casually, "It's just that you have to accompany you personally."
"It's Nanzhan Lin Tao, a friend of Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Silla Empire," Liu Changshi replied respectfully.
"Oh, it turned out to be that person, just let me see what this man named by Sui Xiang himself looks like!"
The youngest of all the princes of the four princes, because his mother had a low status, did not pose any threat to the throne, and was very sincere, and respected his brothers very much, but he was extremely arrogant and domineering outside, but he did not do anything vicious.
At this time, Lin Tao also walked down, and when he heard the answer of Liu Changshou and the four princes, he first pulled the arrow from the tree and came to Liu Changshou.
"Meet the four princes, I am Lin Tao" Lin Tao's eyes shrunk, his eyes playful, without the slightest awe.
"I don't know what the prince's arrow is for?" He asked the Fourth Prince while holding the arrow.
"This prince is hunting, and I haven't seen your carriage, aren't you okay now?" The fourth prince didn't expect this person to dare to question himself directly, and pointed at Lin Tao with a horsewhip and said.
"Then this arrow will be returned to His Highness!"
Lin Tao's eyes were fused with the power of divine sense, and he suddenly glared at the four princes, and the arrow in his hand ran directly towards the four princes.
Affected by Lin Tao's divine sense, the four princes were stunned and couldn't react at all, and when they saw the arrow, their faces turned pale instantly, and they leaned back directly!
Lin Tao naturally wouldn't kill people in public, but he used a very small amount of wood power as a traction, and when the arrow reached the eyes of the four princes, it went directly to the quiver and landed steadily in the quiver.
"Lin Gongzi! You" Liu Changshou said in horror, I didn't expect this Lin Tao to be so bold!
"Bold! Dare to attack the prince! The people behind the four princes saw Lin Tao make a move, and hurriedly stood up and said.
And the fourth prince was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse, his little face was pale at the moment, and he didn't look like he was domineering just now, with a crying expression, full of childish nature.
At this time, another pair of people came over, dressed in brocade and jade robes, and seemed to be with these people.
"Third brother, he bullied me!" When the fourth prince saw the comer, he immediately got off the horse and ran over as if he had seen a savior.
This person is the third prince, his mother's family is the Chu family, and he is also the prince of the Lin family's lineage, Lin Ruoxuan.
"Who are you to dare to provoke the prince," the third prince said solemnly.
"Third prince, I don't think we need to pretend, this heavenly eagle falcon has been with Lao Tzu for seven days, Chu Tiannan's letter is afraid that it has already arrived" Lin Tao did not have any timidity, looked at the third prince and asked directly, "The elk that ran by the side of the team was also arranged by you?"
