Volume 4 Huangfu Chapter 126 I don't see hope in you
Huangfu side hall.
Huang Qikun looked at Huang Lang in front of him and touched the wine glass in his hand: "Did Xu Fuquan stop you and let go of that kid?" β
Huang Lang nodded and said, "Yes, I mentioned the matter of negotiation with the executioner, but the executioner didn't pay attention. β
Huang Qikun moved his right hand slightly, crushed the wine glass, and then sneered: "Are they going to give up this negotiation?" β
"Presumably not." Huang Qikui pushed the door and walked in, "They just sent a message, it is still the Changbei Teahouse, and the pavilion master will be present in person, and this time it is their turn to invite us to the banquet." β
"When?" Huang Qikun asked.
Huang Qikui raised his eyebrows slightly: "Yes...... The day of my uncle's funeral. β
"They're really good at choosing days." Huang Qikun narrowed his eyes, "So who should go to the banquet on our side?" β
"Since they have sent the pavilion master, it stands to reason that it is the safest to let the third brother go." A young man appeared at the door, it was the man who was in charge of pouring tea for Xu Fuquan that day, and Huang Qijin, who was also the fourth among the six heroes of the Huang Mansion.
"Fourth brother!" Huang Qikun and Huang Qikui immediately stood up and saluted.
Huang Qijin walked to them slowly, sat directly on the recliner, picked up a grape on the table and put it in his mouth: "But the third brother thinks that the day of my uncle's funeral is very important, so the third brother plans to stay in the Huang Mansion and let me go to the banquet." β
"But fourth brother, the day of my uncle's funeral is a little special, you are not there, and the rumors outside ......" Huang Qikui said hesitantly.
"Don't worry, you just say that I am sick and should not attend the funeral." Huang Qijin smiled, "After all, it's a banquet where I can meet the Xuanwu Pavilion Master, how can I miss it." β
Huang Qikui said in a deep voice: "The events of that day ......"
"Can a morning tea still talk about the evening? In the evening, I will naturally come to the bean soup feast. Huang Qijin smiled, "After all, this is the most interesting thing in our Huang Mansion in the past hundred years." β
"Okay." Huang Qikun nodded, "Regardless of whether the negotiation is successful or not, as long as that day passes, even if the Xuanwu Pavilion and them can make trouble in Zhongnan City, there will be no more threats to us." β
Huang Qikui lowered his head and said: "Fourth brother, don't worry, everything here has us." β
"Hmm." Huang Qijin said with a smile.
Imperial City.
In front of the Summit.
An old man was going to go back to the inn to rest after coming up and down, but he came to a mansion, and there was a young girl beside the old man who accompanied him, and the two of them glanced at the plaque on the mansion - Xiaoyue Mansion.
In front of Xiaoyue's mansion, a burly man in armor was guarding the door, his face solemn and his eyes vigilant.
He is Yang Zhuyi, the general of Wuguo Wuying.
And he was opposite an old man over sixty years old, the old man took out a cigarette stick from his arms, and the girl next to him immediately took out a fire fold and lit it, the old man shook it slightly, and lit the tobacco leaves on the cigarette stick, he took a puff sharply, and then spewed out a wisp of pale white mist: "General Yang, I've kept you waiting for a long time."
"I really didn't expect that Master Huang would come to the Imperial Capital City." Yang Zhuyi said with a smile.
"But any family of rivers and lakes appears in the Imperial Capital City, I'm afraid it will be strange after knowing it." The old man said with a smirk.
"Hahahaha." Yang Zhuyi laughed loudly, then walked sideways to the side and made way to enter the door of Xiaoyue Mansion, "Master Huang, please come in, the third prince, he has been waiting for you for a long time." β
Xiaoyue's mansion was brightly lit, and a glass lamp illuminated the entire courtyard, but there was no hustle and bustle. This was originally the residence of the eldest prince, but the eldest prince was assassinated, and this mansion was abandoned, and now it has become another courtyard of the three princes.
In a hall, a young man in a green shirt sat on the upper seat, quietly watching the old man walking towards him. He looked about twenty years old, with pale skin and a cold expression, a pair of sword eyebrows flying obliquely into his temples, handsome and chic, and full of a noble temperament that was difficult to hide between his gestures - the third prince Wu Yongpei.
But even if he is the third prince, but above the court, he will never become the object of favor, because his biological mother is a palace concubine, although he is quite favored, but after all, he is just a palace concubine, the foundation is too shallow, not to mention that his biological mother is dead, and no one is willing to fight for this third prince who has no backing.
"Worship Master Huang." Wu Yongpei put down an ancient book in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Master Huang sat down directly in front of Wu Yongpei, although the other party was the third prince of Wuguo, but in his eyes it was just a recklessness, so he didn't seem to feel how respectful he was to the other party, so he spoke very casually: "Meet His Royal Highness the Third Prince." β
"Hahahaha, Master Su Wenhuang, you are a very interesting person." Wu Yongpei played with a chess piece in his hand and said lightly: "When I saw it today, it was not a lie. β
"The third prince specially invited me to rush here from the Yellow Mansion, it shouldn't be for fun." Master Huang said slowly.
"I, I want to form an alliance with the Huang Mansion." Wu Yongpei said with a smile.
Master Huang nodded: "Many people want to form an alliance with the Huang Mansion, but the Huang Mansion has already formed an alliance with us, he is a friend of King Chong'an, and King Chong'an, he has never been involved in any party disputes." β
"King Chong'an, it was just a few decades ago." Wu Yongpei said with a smile, "The second master made the right choice back then, and your Huang Mansion was able to survive that endgame." But now, after a few decades, people will die, and it is time for you to choose to take sides again. β
"Choosing a new side?" Master Huang smiled, and then glanced at the girl beside him.
Wu Yongpei nodded and said: "If the Huang Mansion is able to suppress the other five families, or if it can make the five families surrender, the status of the Huang family is definitely the first in the rivers and lakes." β
"Let Huangfu become the first in the rivers and lakes, this is indeed a very good choice." Old Man Huang smiled, "But, why do I have to choose His Royal Highness the Third Prince?" β
Wu Yongpei's eyebrows furrowed slightly: "What does Master Huang mean?" β
"If it is peaceful today, there is no chaos in the rivers and lakes, if someone wants to take the opportunity to make trouble at this time, I am afraid it will be very difficult." Master Huang said lightly, "And even though His Royal Highness the Third Prince has a noble status, the Huang Mansion has to make countless enemies in order to be the first in the rivers and lakes, and I am afraid that this account is a little unworthy." β
Wu Yongpei smiled: "It's nothing more than the word profit, let's say, what does the Huangfu need?" β
"I don't think you understood what I meant, Your Highness." Master Huang got up and said, "What the old man means is that I, Huangfu, refuse to ally with you. β
"Why refuse?" Wu Yongpei glared at Master Huang.
Master Huang turned around and walked forward: "Because I met the third prince today, the old man was very disappointed." β
"Disappointed?" Wu Yongpei clenched his fists, "What does Master Huang mean?" β
"Many years ago, when your uncle King Chong'an came to my Huang Mansion to leave the old man's second son Huang Qi, I was very happy. Although I don't like Wu Chongan, he is good enough. Master Huang raised his head, as if he was caught in a memory, "When my uncle followed his father, my father once told me that uncle he would definitely give the Huang Mansion a chance to become famous in the world in the future, and it was true later. But in you, the Third Prince, I don't see that potential hope. β
"Hahaha!" Wu Yongpei didn't laugh angrily, "Master Huang, it doesn't matter if you don't choose me, because I don't plan to choose you!" When you are old, a person who is too old is easy to be dazzled, and once he is dazzled, he will make the wrong decision! β
Master Huang stopped: "What do you mean?" β
"Today's Huangfu is about to change." Wu Yongpei raised his hand, "And Master Huang, you will die here." Wu Yongpei waved his hand, and the door of the hall of Xiaoyue Mansion was slammed shut, and the hundreds of glass lamps in the pavilion were extinguished at the same time, and countless killers emerged in the darkness.
"Sir!" The girl let out a low cry and wanted to make a move.
"Probably so." Master Huang smiled, "I haven't moved this old bone for a long time, maybe I can really recover some energy by moving it again." β
"Senior, it's almost time to go." In a quiet pavilion in the imperial capital, a young man dressed in black gently stroked the stone table in front of him, and his tone was gentle. He was a very good-looking man, more beautiful than the average man, even prettier than many young girls.
Inside the Akatsuki Mansion.
I heard a stampede on the top of the eaves, and the courtyard returned to its former quietness.
Master Huang used a dagger to cut off a corner of the bloodstained area, and the girl who was already covered with blood hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and Master Huang smiled: "You think that the old man is too old to make a move, you think that this is not the Huang Mansion and you are arrogant, and you think that the number of people in the imperial capital will take advantage of it." It's a pity that you guys are so stupid. β
After the girl killed another person, she asked, "Sir, what should I do now?" β
"I don't like stupid people in my life, and if I meet them, I will naturally make him pay a price." Master Huang threw the dagger out of his hand.
The third prince, Wu Yongpei, who was standing on the side, watched the dagger fly over, his pupils shrank suddenly, but he couldn't avoid it. He knew that he was afraid that he would be more than lucky today, and suddenly a figure swept in front of him at this time, grabbed the dagger, and Yang Zhuyi said in a deep voice: "Even if you are the Yellow Mansion Master Huang, you can't afford to kill a prince." β
Master Huang asked the girl again: "Xiaoxi, do you think the old man can't afford it?" β
The girl said loudly: "Back then, Xuanwu Pavilion killed a big prince, and they couldn't help them, but now a mere third prince can afford it, whether it is the lord or the Huang Mansion." β
"Well said!" Master Huang smiled lightly, and then walked out of the house.
Yang Zhuyi slapped his hands heavily: "Master Huang, you are still in the Imperial Capital City after all, don't really think of the Imperial Capital City too simply!" Immediately, dozens of Xuanjia guards rushed in from outside the courtyard and surrounded Master Huang and the girl.
"Looks like you're going to fight to the death tonight." Master Huang snorted coldly, and his clothes flew up.
The girl said in a low voice: "Master Huang, it's not appropriate to fight here anymore, it's not good to be responsible for attracting the imperial capital guards, let's find an opportunity to rush out." β
"Hmph. What if it is attracted? Old Man Huang's face was even more angry, "They want to die, and the old man will let them die happily!" With that, he flashed and slashed towards a group of guards.
Suddenly, a sword light flashed.
The entire hall seemed to fall silent for a moment.
Then the roof of the hall was hollowed out, and there was a sword mark on the ground, and the sword mark on the ground exuded a powerful sword intent, and it was a little difficult for the guards to even lift the sword. At this time, everyone looked up at the hollow roof, and there was a person standing.
"Demon of SlaughterβCelestial Remnant." Master Huang said in a deep voice.
I saw that the man fell from the sky, and then stood on the heavy sword on the ground, the long sword was inserted into the ground, making a buzzing and trembling sound, and at this time everyone noticed that the sword actually had dense lines like earthworms crawling, as if this sword was composed of countless worms, which made people feel cold all over their bodies.
"This is the legendary Killing Sword?"
The burly man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said coldly, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Master Huang." β
"It's been a long time since I've seen you, but how dare you appear in the Imperial Capital City?" Master Huang asked.
"At least not for the sake of the waste." Xiao Yan lifted the killing sword and glanced at the Xuanjia guards around him, "If you want to stop me, you must be prepared to die!" As soon as his words fell, a majestic aura suddenly exploded, and fine cracks appeared on all the surrounding walls, like cobwebs, spreading, and at the same time, a solemn aura permeated, enveloping the entire courtyard.
