The second prince, Yuwen Qianyang, had a very good reputation at the beginning, and was once able to compete with the crown prince.

Unfortunately, it is much worse now.

The Second Prince's Mansion.

In the study, the second prince, who was not particularly handsome, had a flat complexion, and some stubble on his face, was listening to Li Zonghe's words.

Li Zonghe said: "Now that Your Majesty has died, if we want to compete for the throne, it is estimated that the initiative will be in the hands of the bigwigs of our Northern Zhou royal family, and we do not have their support, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult." ”

The second prince nodded slightly and did not speak.

They are also difficult to ride a tiger now, and since they have decided to compete for the throne, they have come to a dead end.

Either take the throne or die.

There is no third way.

"Our momentum is not as good as that of the crown prince and the third child, because of the previous incident, there should be basically no people in the royal family who support me, and we can't just consider this. ”

The second prince spoke slowly, speaking neither lightly nor seriously, as if he could make people relax their guard.

The tone is also extremely flat, as if what he said is not his business at all, and it is really difficult for others to find emotional fluctuations in the second prince.

Li Zonghe shook his head and said: "But if you don't consider this, we can't compete with the crown prince and the third prince in terms of force." ”

It seems to be a little, struggling.

No one supports Wen, and Wu can't beat it.

How else to play?

Li Zonghe was in a hurry, but the second prince was not in a hurry.

"I don't know what the strategy is, but I also know that we are not suitable to take the initiative now, wait for the opportunity, the future is undecided, who can become the final winner is uncertain, and it is useless to rush. ”

The original second prince had a somewhat impetuous personality, but after experiencing the previous blow, he became so calm.

Li Zonghe was a little helpless, and he also knew why the second prince had such an attitude.

The heart is dead.

The previous command mistake is a relationship that has been overshadowed.

Since then, the second prince has been like a different person, he is not in a hurry about anything, but has had a good effect, even if the momentum is not as good as before, but it is not over.

You must know that the royal family is intrigued and intrigued, not to mention a prince, even if the prince does not do well, he will lose his life.

The fact that the second prince can still stand firm after making a big mistake already shows his ability.

Bang bang bang!

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in. The second prince frowned slightly and shouted.

It turned out to be his personal eunuch Feng Yang, no wonder he dared to come in while they were talking, if it was an ordinary subordinate, he would never dare to be so presumptuous.

"Is there anything wrong with Gonggong Feng?" the second prince asked.

Feng Yang saluted and said, "Second prince, there is a person outside, saying that he wants to defect to you as a guest." ”

"Oh?" the second prince said with interest: "There are many people who want to be my guest, most of them are eating and waiting to die, and it seems that people who are really capable will not come to me." ”

Li Zonghedao: "I'll take a look?"

"Since Mr. Li wants to go, then I'll go with you to have a look, just idle and bored. The second prince stood up and stretched, with a somewhat interested look, and walked out with Li Zonghe and them.

Although I went in person, looking at this attitude, I obviously didn't take it seriously.

But it's no wonder, as he himself said, people with the ability will not come to him, although it is not absolute, but for so long, the crown prince and the third prince have collected a lot of capable people, and on his side, the people who come to defect are basically waste who eat and wait for death.

The second prince is no longer surprised.

In front of the gate.

Tang Xiao waited here.

He could also guess that because of the second prince's own defeat in the competition, it is estimated that he would not believe too much in any strong people coming to defect.

Therefore, Tang Xiao felt that it was better to show his strength.

Soon, the second prince and others came.

At first glance, I knew that it was the second prince, sharp with a bit of decadent temperament, but very profound, and at first glance he was a leading figure.

He had already seen Feng Yang beside him, he was the personal eunuch of the second prince, and it was Feng Yang who he saw when he came here, and Feng Yang went to tell the second prince.

And the other person, who looked to be forty or fifty years old, was carrying a sword behind him, and his momentum was extremely sharp, and he knew at a glance that he was a powerful sword cultivator.

It seems that this person is the great elder of the Swinging Sword Sect as stated in the news, Li Zonghe.

"The grass people have seen the second prince. After Tang Xiao saw the second prince, he hugged his fists and saluted.

The second prince looked at Tang Xiao with interest and said, "Are you going to defect to me?"

"Exactly. ”

"Then what is your strength?

Tang Xiao glanced at Li Zonghe beside him and said, "Both civil and military, just speaking of martial arts, at least it will not be worse than this Mr. Li next to His Highness." ”

Arrogant!

This is the first thought in the hearts of the second prince and several others.

Li Zonghe even almost laughed out loud, this person must have inquired about the news before coming to defect, otherwise he would not have said his surname Li.

But this person is so arrogant, he actually said that his martial arts are not inferior to him?

Didn't he know what the reincarnation realm represented?

It's not that he looks down on people, but Li Zonghe, the powerhouse of the reincarnation realm of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, basically knows everything, and he really doesn't have the one in front of him.

This made Li Zonghe think in his heart, this person must not be a powerhouse in the reincarnation realm.

The second prince smiled: "Do you know that Mr. Li is a strong man in the reincarnation realm, and his strength is strong, you actually say that you are not worse than him, but you have a credential?"

He is also a character anyway, and there is no ridicule, but he doesn't think this person is like a charlatan.

The reason is simple.

They all know Li Zonghe's strength, this person dares to be so presumptuous, if he doesn't have the ability, Li Zonghe will have to show his stuff as soon as he makes a move.

And as soon as the powerhouse of the reincarnation realm makes a move, if he is not the existence of the reincarnation realm, it is estimated that it will be difficult to catch Li Zonghe's move, and his life will be gone.

Is anyone joking with their own lives? That's.

Therefore, the second prince thinks that this person may not be talking big, but really capable.

Tang Xiao said with a smile: "This is simple, please ask the second prince to take us to the martial arts arena, I will prove it." ”

With such a tone, it is basically determined.

The second prince's eyes narrowed and asked, "Are you also a powerhouse in the reincarnation realm?"

"It's like a fake. Tang Xiao nodded.

Feng Yang and Li Zonghe glanced at each other, both with some suspicion in their eyes, but they couldn't say anything.

This is in front of the gate of the Second Prince's Mansion, and there is no way to show momentum or anything, otherwise the coverage is too large, and it is not good to be discovered, and it will be fine when you arrive in the mansion.

They did doubt the man's strength.

Isn't it to underestimate the second prince, an existence in the reincarnation realm, will come to the second prince? This possibility is too small, right?

The second prince's eyes also flashed with a hint of essence, and he didn't think this person was lying.

"Then please ask Mr. to go with me to the martial arts arena, if Mr. is really a strong person in the reincarnation realm, Xiao Wang will definitely reuse it. ”
