Chapter 76: Arrogance is the blade of self-destruction
"Brother Zhu, you seem to be very anxious about the safety of this villain!"
When Zhao Ci spoke, his tone was very calm, as if he didn't realize that he had just destroyed someone's hand.
It's just that these words are full of questions.
Zhu Yan's complexion changed slightly, he shook his right hand that was trembling slightly behind his back, and said with a smile: "Go back to Your Highness!" Zai Xia didn't have this intention, but he just thought that this person was also a talent, and it would be a pity if it was abolished, so he was in a hurry to stop it, just like His Royal Highness couldn't bear Brother Xiao's injury. ”
"Makes sense!"
Zhao Ci seemed to deeply agree, and added: "It's a pity that Brother Zhu's experience in saving people is a little worse, if he is stronger, maybe he will be able to leave a talent for Dayu." It's a pity ......"
Zhu Yan: "......"
Say I'm not good at learning, right?
Zhao Ci cut in his heart, it's not that he saved face for these people, just now Zhu Li had already told him that the Bao family is the in-law of the Zhu family, and if he really wants to be tough, he will definitely make Zhao Yong not come to the stage.
It's just that this kind of entanglement can't cause any substantial harm to Zhao Yong, at most the two sides will be disgusted with each other.
Anyway, my goal has been achieved, so there is no need to talk to them about this.
He smiled faintly: "I didn't believe it when Bao Longtao said that the sword had no eyes, but the sword really had no eyes, you see this accidental injury." ”
Everyone: "......"
Do you call this a manipulation?
But one thing to say, history is really similar.
In front, Bao Longtao slashed Xiao Shenke's right hand, and Zhao Ci slashed Bao Longtao's right hand.
It's just that the former was stopped by Zhao Ci, but the latter was not stopped by Zhu Yan.
It's really ironic to say.
However, this bloody scene did not make the talents present frightened at all, but became more and more exciting.
Especially the person who lost under Bao Longtao just now, seeing this person who made himself look like a fool was heavy, and his mood was happy.
Xiao Shenke's eyes were even hotter, and he felt that Zhao Ci seemed to be able to shine.
Zhao Ci kicked casually, and kicked the broken right forearm to the unconscious Bao Longtao: "Cuiyun, find someone to stop the bleeding for him, throw him out of the gate, and then send someone to keep an eye on it to see if the mastermind behind the scenes will pick him up." ”
"Yes!"
Cuiyun nodded in response, and then led someone to carry Bao Longtao away with his hands.
[Hint]: Wish completed, get rewards: comprehension value +10, peace charm x1.
[Hint]: ......
[Hint]: ......
Three identical hints in a row brought 30 comprehension points and three peace charms, and the attributes of the rune paper were also revealed.
[Peace Charm]: Use on the target to reduce the probability of a vicious event to a certain extent, for a quarter of an hour.
To a certain extent?
To what extent?
I don't know if I can reach the level of human stroke.
But it's a good thing anyway.
Zhao Ci put away his spear, re-entered the high platform, looked at Zhao Yong and Zhu Yan, and said, "Brother Huang, Brother Zhu, you two shouldn't be in a hurry to do anything, right?" ”
Zhao Yong hurriedly said: "Don't worry! ”
"Don't worry, then sit and drink for a while!"
Zhao Ci smiled, poured a glass of wine again, and raised his glass to the audience: "Today's meeting of friends with martial arts is here, let's have a good time!" Also, today my imperial brother came to help me check the official of the Guan, so be sure to have a few more drinks with him! Come, Your Highness the Nine! ”
"To His Highness the Nine!"
"To His Highness the Nine!"
"To His Highness the Nine!"
Everyone raised their glasses in unison.
Zhao Yong was about to leave, but he was so respected, he could only retract his steps.
This time, Zhao Ci didn't expose his old bottom in person, if he was in too much of a hurry, he would expose his weakness by himself.
He squeezed out a smile and said stubbornly: "Thank you for your great help to Lao Shi, whether you become the official of the Ten Kings Mansion or not, you can support Lao Shi in the future, I have done this glass of wine!" ”
After speaking, he raised his head and drank it all.
Zhu Yan looked eager: "Your Highness, Your Highness!" ”
Zhao Yong lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, this matter ......"
Zhao Ci: "Let's toast His Royal Highness Nine for another cup!" ”
Zhao Yong: "Come on!" Dry! ”
Zhu Yan was stunned.
Don't worry?
How can I not be in a hurry!? Although the people of the Ten Kings Mansion have already helped Bao Longtao stop the bleeding, it is urgent to connect the severed limb, if it is received in time, it can be used in the future, but if it drags on for a long time, then it will ......
He looked at Zhao Yong's appearance of drinking with his face, and he couldn't help but feel a little resentful in his heart.
The cousin who co-authored the cousin is not a cousin, is it?
He was a little impatient in his heart, but he also understood that Zhao Ci was taking the opportunity to make a mistake, and in desperation, he could only raise a glass and drink together, and forcibly poured himself a few big sips, so he took the opportunity to vomit because he was too drunk to vomit, and left the venue in a hurry, and asked someone to carry Bao Longtao away.
I wasted a lot of time back and forth, and I don't know how many functions this hand can keep.
And Zhao Yong was dragged out of the Ten Kings' Mansion until the end of the dinner.
"Cut! Fight me! ”
Zhao Ci pursed his lips and burped comfortably.
After glancing at it, he made sure that the people in the way were gone, so he took out a piece of paper with his name written on it from his arms and handed it to Zhu Li: "No! Chief Governor, go and take the little brother in. ”
"Oh!"
Zhu Li gave him a strange look, then jumped down the high platform, and happily accepted the little brother.
The five people who were named were a little overjoyed, after all, they were still abused a little miserably by Bao Longtao, but they didn't expect to be recognized by Zhao Cihui.
This feeling of being desperate and being fished out again is a little cool.
His eyes were a little glazed.
"What are you doing?"
Zhu Li waved his lotus-like arm: "Your strength, but I, the chief government official, have been certified by His Royal Highness, just slip over and be a government official." ”
Everyone: "!! ”
It turns out that not only His Highness can see our strength.
The chief government officer can also see it.
The Ten Kings' Mansion was unknown before, why did the people in it have vicious eyes!
Looks like you've come to the right place this time!
The banquet was dispersed.
The five new quasi-government officials followed Zhu Li into the main hall of the Ten Princes' Mansion, and then saw Zhao Ci with a smile on his face.
Several people worked in unison.
"Meet Your Highness!"
"It's all your own, you're welcome, please take a seat!"
Zhao Ci smiled and made a gesture of please.
Everyone sat down at this time, and when they saw that everyone had a wooden box printed with the words Xingyu Danhui in their hands, they were all a little excited.
As expected, this should be the top-grade Qi Cultivation Pill promised by Zhao Ci.
They never think of themselves as mediocre talents, and their basic skills are also very solid.
It's just that the family can't come up with so much money, and they don't want to be a retainer for the big clan, what they lack is cultivation resources.
Zhao Ci smiled faintly: "On your left-hand side, there are three high-grade Qi Cultivation Pills, as well as the contract to join the Ten Princes' Mansion as a government official through the mansion, if you are interested, we will be comrades-in-arms for three years or even a lifetime after signing the name." ”
Three!
Everyone's eyes lit up, but they didn't expect it to be three times as much as they had said in advance.
Xiao Shenke immediately arched his hand and said: "If there is no help from His Royal Highness today, my right hand will definitely be abolished, and if I am fortunate enough to become the official of the Ten Princes' Mansion, I will definitely do my best!" No matter what the result is, this life is the saddle before and after the saddle for His Highness! ”
Anyway, just sign the contract.
As soon as he took the lead, everyone else signed the contract without hesitation.
Don't say anything else.
Just because Zhao Ci can stand up for people who have not yet become his own government officials, and take the risk of his own life, such a boss is worth following them.
Moreover, this Ten Highnesses is not as weak as the legend at all, not only is he a ghost talent in the alchemy realm, but his body is also terrifying, and he definitely has a future with him.
The corners of Zhao Ci's mouth couldn't help but raise slightly, and he couldn't wait to give Zhao Yong a little red in his heart.
Sending charcoal in the snow still has to be Yongzi!
I am worried about how to establish prestige in front of the new government officials, worried that they are not loyal enough!
As a result, a Bao Longtao was sent to him.
Forcibly pulled a wave of hatred.
and he sacrificed himself a sacrificial spear.
What a great man!
Thanks to Zhu Yan, if he hadn't blocked it for a while, I'm afraid that some people really wouldn't be able to see that they were the ones behind the scenes.
But in the final analysis, Zhao Yong looked down on these civilian-born masters in his heart, and there were many ways to make trouble, so he chose this most extreme way.
"Good!"
Zhao Ci stood up and said with a smile: "It is a blessing for this palace to have such a promise from you!" You should be Tianjiao, but you are just confined to the dilemma of lack of resources, and it is not a problem to use this Qi Cultivation Pill to make up for the missing parts, and it will not be a problem to pass the government examination.
In the future, you and I will work together to make contributions and leave a name for eternity!
There is still a period of time before the palace, if you don't give up, it is better to live in the Ten Kings' Mansion!
My uncle often comes to my place, and maybe he can give you some guidance on your martial arts. ”
Recently, Xiang Yun brought the young man of the Xiang family to refine wine every day, but he was idle and had nothing to do.
It's time to get him a job!
"Hiss......"
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, everyone knew that Zhao Ci's mother family was the Jingchu Xiang family, and this "uncle" naturally could not be the deceased loyal martyr Xiang Tiange, but the Xiang family's generation produced many talents, all of whom were masters in the army.
Being able to have such a high-finger martial art, compared to their own cultivation, the effect is more than a little bit stronger.
Several people thanked one after another: "Thank you, Your Highness!" ”
Zhao Ci said with a smile: "It's getting late, let's stay directly tonight, practice for one night first, and then move their respective luggage in tomorrow!" ”
I saw the next person move in with a few people.
He stretched comfortably.
Let Xiang Yun come over to guide, at present, it is just a big pie, after all, it is a general who was once a fierce yuppie, and it is really a bit condescending to let him teach a few rookies.
But not really.
Everything is about a flicker.
Feng Kucha was a little surprised: "Zhao Ci, when did you become so fierce?" ”

Zhao Ci asked rhetorically: "What?" Are you unhappy? ”
Feng Kucha choked: "Happy is happy, but you are a little too fierce!" ”
Zhao Ci grabbed his neck: "When the government is over, you get Wan Mugen, and you can be so fierce, what about this sour ball now?" ”
"Yes!"
Feng Kucha felt that this was right, and his mood suddenly became much happier, and he glanced out at the sky, then pulled Yang Mo, who didn't know what he was thinking, and the two said goodbye and left.
"Yang Mo ......"
Zhao Ci glanced at Yang Mo's back meaningfully, and silently calculated in his heart that he had to quickly find a time to complete Yang Mo's wish.
Golden wish, he really saw it for the first time, and the talent of the god chrysalis was even more covetous.
It's just that the family education environment of this product is extremely deformed, and it may not be easy to help him overcome his fears.
But......
Zhao Ci still didn't understand, how could an ordinary concubine of the Yang clan in southern Yunnan be able to brush out the golden wish?
How unreasonable is that!
"Zhao Ci ......"
"Huh?"
"Your Highness!"
Zhu Li quickly changed his words.
Zhao Ci then asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Zhu Li's eyes seemed to have a shining divine light: "When you are angry with my little brother, you are still strange for being chivalrous and courageous!" ”
Zhao Ci: "......"
This is your little brother?
He looked into her eyes, which seemed to have a hint of a fan in them.
Seeing that he was a little embarrassed: "Don't you think, I have other purposes?" ”
Zhu Li asked rhetorically: "Do you still need a purpose to do chivalry?" If you had another purpose, would you be able to escape my eyes? ”
Zhao Ci looked at her eyes full of wisdom and felt that she was right.
He is born chivalrous.
……
Late at night!
Nine Kings' Mansion.
"How's it going?"
"The hand is saved, but I may not be able to use the sword again in the future, and it is not easy for the Bao family to explain."
"It's okay! I'll take this responsibility! ”
Zhao Yong took the pot to himself again, after all, Zhu Yan and Bao Longtao are cousins, and Bao Longtao and Jiuwangfu are also connected to him, but Bao Longtao didn't even have time to become a government official, and his entire right hand was wasted.
If Zhu Yan is allowed to shoulder this responsibility, it will really be a departure from morality.
Zhu Yan sighed and arched his hand: "Thank you, Your Highness!" ”
Zhao Yong asked in a deep voice: "Do you have any resentment against me in your heart?" If we force us to leave the field, Bao Longtao's hand ......"
"Your Highness is right!"
A trace of violence flashed in Zhu Yan's eyes: "It's just that I didn't expect Zhao Ci to be so scheming and so black." Your Highness, this person's strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and it is definitely not something that a low-grade Emperor Ji Dan can do, and he has been in the limelight these days, I am afraid it will be a big trouble in the future. ”
He remembered now that Zhao Ci swept his scabbard back with one shot, and the ferocious force almost shook his true qi away.
If you don't prepare in advance, this scabbard can even shatter your own hand bones.
There is also Bao Longtao, his cousin, who can be called the strongest of the younger generation outside the Zhu family, although today's defeat includes careless elements, but it is just a flaw, and it ends up like this, which shows that Zhao Ci is definitely not weak.
This time, the Zhu family lost an external system with unlimited potential.
The Nine Kings Mansion also lost a promising adjutant.
"Humph!"
Zhao Yong snorted coldly: "My strength is probably not advancing by leaps and bounds, but premeditated." ”
Zhu Yan was a little surprised: "Your Highness means ......"
Zhao Yong made a cup of herbal tea and said with a solemn expression: "In recent days, we have been repeatedly frustrated in front of him, and I thought it was his luck at first, but now that I think about it, it is entirely because we are too careless." The illusion he created before has deceived us until now. You...... Do you still remember the origin of Concubine Jing? ”
"Concubine Jing!"
Zhu Yan's pupils shrank, he naturally heard of Concubine Jing's origin, he went to Yingzhou Immortal Dao to learn Taoism since he was a child, and he couldn't be a mediocre person.
It's just that Concubine Jing has been in the palace for more than ten years, and it seems that she has been practicing the art of a businessman who is unbearable, and over time, everyone seems to have forgotten her origin.
But after studying Taoism for so long, how can it be completely useless?
Zhao Ci's recent changes must be related to Concubine Jing!
After all, second-grade meat is not something that ordinary people can mold.
The mother and son pretended to be weak, and it was likely that they were simply accumulating until they reached this Huangji Pill.
Even the art of refining wine may have been excavated by Concubine Jing from some unknown ruins of the previous dynasty.
"This mother and son are so scheming!"
"Not only scheming, but also ambition, this mother and son must be on the throne!"
Zhao Yong said in a deep voice: "Arrogance is a sharp blade for self-destruction, fortunately, it is not too late for us to wake up, we must let go of all prejudices in the future, and suppress the Ten Princes' Mansion to the death, otherwise he will become the prince's henchman sooner or later." ”
"Yes!"
Zhu Yan nodded solemnly.
Zhao Yong looked at him worriedly, and said with a faint smile: "It's not necessary to be so heavy, even if Zhao Ci is not weak now, he has just broken through the body refining period." I ask you, if you fight him to the death, what are your chances of winning? ”
Zhu Yan thought for a while: "Let's open it in seven three!" Zhao Ci's basic marksmanship skills are very strong, but they are only basic skills, if he really learns more exquisite marksmanship, in the face of the flaws exposed by Bao Longtao, he can cut off his right hand with just one move.
If I had faced him, I might not have won so easily, but he couldn't help me.
With the flames, I have a big chance of winning.
If Your Highness makes a move, his advantage in flesh will be greatly reduced, and there is basically no possibility of winning. ”
"Yes!"
Zhao Yong smiled and nodded: "His basic skills are strong, even I can't deny it, but the gap in cultivation is not so easy to make up." Our Nine Princes' Mansion is full of talents, on the other hand, the Ten Princes' Mansion...... Don't mention it. Relax, you can rest first, and tomorrow I will go to Bao's house to apologize! ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Zhu Yan nodded gratefully and left the Nine Kings' Mansion.
After he left.
The smile on Zhao Yong's face gradually converged, the gap in cultivation was indeed a little difficult to make up, but Concubine Jing had the means to help Zhao Ci condense into a second-grade flesh, so was there no other means to help Zhao Ci improve?
There is also the group of strange-shaped officials in the Ten Princes' Mansion, if he had been before, he would only laugh off his big teeth.
But today, Bao Longtao abused those people into clowns, but Zhao Ci still found out the clues.
This man is not lucky.
It's that the eyes are really vicious.
Moreover, there is such a lesson as Zhu Li, in case Feng Kucha and Yang Mo were both developed by Zhao Ci in a strange usage.
I'm afraid it's really a bit difficult.
Of course.
No matter how strong the Ten Princes' Mansion is, it is impossible to be stronger than the Nine Princes' Mansion.
The counterattack of waste is certainly amazing.
But the real fierce ones are those who have grown up as geniuses since childhood.
He didn't think that these government officials under him would be compared to Feng Kucha, Yang Mo and the like.
This.
Zhao Yong is very confident.
But self-confidence is self-confidence, and Zhao Ci's recent performance still makes him very uneasy.
Opening the booklet that recorded his life insights, he solemnly recorded that "arrogance is the sharp blade of self-destruction".
That's when it happened.
Suddenly a voice sounded outside the door.
"Your Highness, you have a distinguished guest asking to see you."
"Huh?"
Zhao Yong's expression was grim, and the owner of this voice was called Shadow.
The shadow is not his subordinate, but a master sent by the prince to contact him, usually hiding in the shadows, never appearing in front of outsiders, and it is difficult for even himself to find his whereabouts.
Only when something big happens, the shadow will take the initiative to find itself.
Now I came to the door and brought a distinguished guest?
He said in a deep voice, "Come in with your guests!" ”
"Squeak!"
The door was pushed open, and a shadow dressed in black came in with a thin old man with a withered body.
Zhao Yong's brows furrowed slightly, but he still said politely: "What do you call the honorable driver?" ”
"It's not enough to be cheap."
The old man smiled and arched his hand: "Your Highness only needs to know that I am here to help Your Highness." ”
"Help me?"
Zhao Yong became interested: "How can you help me?" ”
The corners of the old man's mouth on both sides rose together, and he squeezed out an exaggerated and hideous arc on his wrinkled face: "Help Your Highness...... Solve a henchman's problem! ”
"Who?"
"Zhao Ci!"
“!”
Zhao Yong shuddered and looked at the shadow suspiciously, this old man was brought by the shadow, which means that he has received the tacit approval of the prince.
To put it this way...... The prince also agreed to kill Zhao Ci?
This, this!
Zhao Yong was a little flustered, he knew very well that he opened the mansion just to become the prince's right-hand man, and by the way, to help the prince clear the obstacles.
For Zhao Ci, as well as the Prince Ying's Mansion that is close to the Four Princes, he will also spare no effort to deal with it.
Can...... Homicide?
Is it directly against each other?
He can't afford the charge of fratricide!
The old man seemed to see Zhao Yong's doubts, and said with a light smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, this process doesn't need Your Highness to do it personally, just a little help from Your Highness." After the matter is completed, no one will be able to suspect His Highness. ”
Zhao Yong frowned: "Dare to ask who is the surname of Zunjia, and who is standing behind him?" ”
"It's a cheap name, not enough to worry about, but ...... behind me"
The old man's expression gradually became reverent, and he solemnly spat out two words.
"Holy Sect!"
