In one of the palace's bedrooms.

Qin Zizheng, the emperor of the Tieqin Empire, sat on a chair at this time, looking at the white teacup in front of him in a daze.

He was a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties, with a Chinese face, somewhat thick eyebrows, and a short beard on his mouth, which looked like a Confucian scholar.

In the entire dormitory, there was not a single palace maid waiting, only him, so quiet that he could only hear his sighs from time to time.

Picking up the teacup in front of him, Qin Zizheng took a small sip, then stared at the tea foam in the cup, and said to himself a little: "You say, who will be responsible for the death of Prince Nan to Kongming?"

The cup exudes a faint fragrance of tea, the tea water is clear, and the heat constantly brings out the fragrance of tea.

I thought that this might be Qin Zizheng's self-talk in the teacup in his hand, but I didn't expect that a black shadow suddenly appeared in the corner.

A man dressed in black suddenly appeared in front of him.

The man in black was not very tall, with a white mask on his face that made it impossible to see his appearance, and a strange weapon as thin as a steel needle pinned to his waist.

Qin Zizheng looked up at the man in black, his face was very calm, and he seemed to know the man in black, and raised the teacup in his hand to signal if the other party wanted to drink a cup.

The man in black shook his head.

"Xiang Kongming's death is really too weird, it is said that he went to the auction hall before he died, and it was late at night when he came back, who could kill him without alarming anyone?" Qin Zizheng asked the previous question again, "As far as I know, Xiang Kongming has no signs of poisoning, and he himself is a strong fighter......"

"Is it possible that the other three princes conspired to do it?" asked the man in black.

This man in black is Qin Zizheng's personal bodyguard, and no one knows about his existence except Qin Zizheng. He has a very peculiar fighting skill. It can hide the breath and body shape.

Only in the absence of others. He will only show up, just like the current situation, except for him in the dormitory, it is Qin Zizheng.

"Well, I can't rule out this possibility!" Qin Zizheng frowned and pondered.

In the Tieqin Empire. There are four princes in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and the southern prince Xiang Kongming is just one of them. Although these four princes collude with each other on weekdays to loot the people's fat and ointment, they secretly want to get rid of each other. It's just that they are equal in power with each other, and they have not been able to do it.

If Xiang Kongming's death benefited the most, it should be said that there are three other princes.

In addition, these three princes have recommended candidates for "Nan Wangye" many times in the past two days, and they all want their people to occupy this position.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to go to the other three palaces to investigate?" the man in black continued to ask.

"It's not necessary!" Qin Zizheng waved his hand, and a seemingly nonexistent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "No matter who kills Xiang Kongming, I have to thank him, this Xiang Kongming uses his power for personal gain on weekdays." I don't know how many bad things I've done, and I've wanted to get rid of him for a long time. It's just that there has never been a suitable opportunity. ”

After a pause, Qin Zizheng stood up and continued: "The main thing now is not to track down the murderer, but how to decide the candidate for this 'Southern Prince'. ”

Since Xiang Kongming's death, many parties in the court have focused on this position, and they all vigorously recommend their relatives and praise them to the sky.

Although Qin Zizheng has the intention to keep this prince's position vacant, if he really does this, the situation of the four princes holding each other back will be broken, and the other three princes will be even more unscrupulous at that time.

Although Qin Zizheng is the lord of a country, he has a lot of helplessness, the military power of the empire is controlled by important courtiers, and there is no difference between him, the emperor and a puppet.

But fortunately, the various forces contain each other, and he has the teacher of the three-star Demon Emperor sitting in the back, but no one dares to commit the offense!

But not now, just because it won't happen in the future doesn't mean it won't happen!

His teacher, the Murong faction, is very old, even if he can live for a few more decades, but after a few decades, won't the Tieqin Empire have civil strife?

As the king of a country, Qin Zizheng had to plan for the future, and the foundation of his ancestors could not be destroyed in his own hands.

Nan Wangye's death to Kongming was like a fuse, exposing many hidden problems.

"Your Majesty, why don't you place your own person as the 'Southern Prince'?" the man in black asked.

With a wry smile, Qin Zizheng said: "I want to too, but if I do this, the whole court will be opposed, you haven't seen the faces of those old guys today, you just don't take me seriously." ”

He, the emperor of Qin, is really too aggrieved, but what can be done about this, the court is divided, various forces are forming parties for personal gain, and only the Wang family supports him as the emperor......

Qin Zizheng's wish is to be able to grasp the royal power in his own hands in his lifetime and break this situation of fame and powerlessness.

"Hey, if only my teacher could find a job in the DPRK, it can also help me play a certain deterrent role. With a sigh, Qin Zizheng felt physically and mentally exhausted.

"Your Majesty, why don't you discuss this matter with the Demon Emperor?" said the man in black.

"My teacher will not interfere in the government, but I haven't visited his old man's house for a long time......"

Qin Zizheng said, deciding to take time to see the Murong faction in the past two days, he wanted to know what the teacher was busy with during this time?

Yuna can be sure that the giant wolf in front of her is "Wuxia", the pet beast of the little boy who saved her.

But why would anyone else ride on it?

Who are the three of them?

As Yuna looked curiously, a somewhat sweet voice came.

"May I ask my little sister, is there anything wrong with you?" Chen Yue had a faint smile on her face, giving people a very close feeling.

She could feel that the little girl in front of her was not an ordinary person, and the middle-aged man next to this little girl was not simple.

Mu Xiaoxiao, who was standing beside Yuna, was slightly startled, the girl on the wolf's back looked at him with very sharp eyes, obviously a master, but the strange thing was that he couldn't feel a trace of fighting energy or magic fluctuations.

"Sister, your 'Peerless Wolf' is so big, does it have a name?"

Yuna is very smart, and after talking to Guò, she learns a very important information, the giant wolf in front of her is "Wuxia", and the person these three people are going to meet is likely to be the little boy who saved her.

For Dongfang Xiuzhe, Yuna has always been obsessed, although she was frightened a lot when she was together, but it also left her a lot of memories after all.

What impressed her the most was Dongfang Xiuzhe's endless strange moves, although she had described them to others after returning to the palace, but no one believed her words.

Yuna wanted to see that little boy again, she wanted her father to reward her little life-saving benefactor, she just wanted others to know that she was not lying, that little boy was really good at anything.

Yuna followed behind the "Peerless Xia Wolf" and came to the Murong family's manor.

"Is it here?" Yuna's eyes lit up, and she followed.

She is very familiar with this place, her father often brought her here to play in the past, and in addition, Sister Murong Wen is also her teacher, teaching her a lot of knowledge about wind magic.

The servant who guards the door is even more familiar with Yuna, the seventh princess.

In this way, Yuna and Mu Xiaoxiao entered the manor, and then, without any suspense, they saw the little boy who made Yuna think about it.

"Little brother, it's really you!" Yuna ran over with a smile.

The three of Chenyue, who were talking to Dongfang Xiuzhe, were all stunned, they didn't expect that little girl to come here, let alone that they seemed to be very familiar with Dongfang Xiuzhe.

Dongfang Xiuzhe was also surprised when he saw Yuna at this time, when Yuna left, he explained his identity to him and knew that this little girl was the seventh princess of the Tieqin Empire.

Mu Xiaoxiao followed, and he could now be completely sure that the apprentice of the Murong Sect in front of him was the little ghost who had fought him once in the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

"Little brother, why didn't you come to the capital to play with me?" Yuna asked with some complaint.

"There is no time!"

Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't change his attitude towards her without the other party being a princess, and he still had that lukewarm tone.

Yuna seemed to have long been used to it, pestering Dongfang Xiuzhe to chatter endlessly.

Yuna was very happy today, she returned to the palace, and described the meeting of the little savior to her father, who pestered him, and the emperor must reward her little savior.

Qin Zizheng looked at his baby daughter in surprise, and asked in some surprise, "Yuna, you said that the child who saved you is now at your Grandpa Murong house?"

Previously, he had heard Yuna describe countless times how powerful and powerful the little boy who saved her was, and he always thought that his daughter made it up, but he didn't expect that the child really existed, and it was still in his teacher's house.

That sounds so surprising!

"Father, let me tell you, that little boy's name is Dongfang Xiuzhe, and he is now Grandpa Murong's apprentice!" Yuna smiled happily.

"Yuna, what are you talking about?" Qin Zizheng was stunned again.

He knew very well that his teacher, although he had many students, had never seen him take in apprentices.

To be exact, there is no one who can make this teacher look at him and accept him as a disciple!

"My teacher actually accepted an apprentice, why didn't I know about this?"

Qin Zizheng called Mu Xiaoxiao, and the result confirmed that Yuna's words were true.

"The apprentice who can make the teacher fancy is the one who saved Yuna, I really want to see what kind of child he is!"

Qin Zizheng suddenly became interested. (To be continued.) )
