"Li Ran, you can be reborn from the layers of killing, and now you have won the trust of my mother emperor and become a national teacher, you are indeed very capable, and now, I have to admit this. ”

Xiao Lingqiu said coldly.

"And then, Your Highness won't come all the way to praise me, right?" Li Ran looked at the other party with interest.

"I apologize to you. ”

Xiao Lingqiu bit his lip, as if he had made a great inner struggle: "For everything that I did to you before." ”

Hearing this, Li Ran's heart was incredible.

You must know that Xiao Lingqiu, the mother-in-law, is arrogant by nature and empty-eyed, and now she is willing to condescend to herself, isn't it...... Is the sun coming out of the west?

No, there must be someone who commands you!

Prime Minister Zhang Ningfu!

A deep old face flashed in his mind, and Li Ran was very sure of his judgment.

At this time, I only heard Xiao Lingqiu say again: "You are a smart person, the situation in the court, I think you can also see it clearly, I simply picked out some words and said, I hope you will make a wise choice for the sake of your father and brother, as well as your own future." ”

"My second sister has 200,000 troops in the hinterland of the barbarians in Western Xinjiang, and the mother emperor announced her return to the dynasty this time, but she only brought 10,000 elite soldiers back to Beijing, saying that the barbarians are training in the old nest giant god village every day, and the army has signs of recovery.

"Actually, the second princess doesn't want to hand over her hole cards, because once the army returns to the country, her military power will be taken back by the Ministry of War, and she will also lose the biggest bargaining chip in this game with Your Highness. ”

Li Ran took over and said.

"Yes, it's a pity that although she played well with her wishful thinking, she didn't know that the mother emperor had been wary of her for a long time. ”

Xiao Lingqiu said coldly: "The mother emperor personally said that if she does not transfer the army back within three months, she will definitely be merciless. ”

"Well, it does seem like His Majesty said it. ”

Li Ran nodded, and said with a smile: "Wow, from this point of view, His Highness is undoubtedly already a big winner who is sure to win, I don't know what else the national division can serve you?"

"I want you to be on my side. ”

Xiao Lingqiu stared at him: "Every change in the battle situation in the Western Xinjiang will cause changes in the court, do you know what I mean?"

"The minister is dull and doesn't understand the meaning of His Highness. Li Ran said without hesitation.

"No, Li Ran, you must understand. ”

Xiao Lingqiu said firmly: "A legendary woman like the mother emperor, who has gone through countless winds and waves in this life, has never looked at the wrong person, the position of the former national teacher, since the death of her father, has been vacant, and now she has given you this position, it can be seen that you must have your own strengths in politics." ”

The other party's words came to this point, Li Ran could only smile slightly bitterly, "There are indeed strengths, but what Your Majesty values is really not necessarily political......"

"You...... What do you mean by that?"

Xiao Lingqiu frowned slightly, a woman like her, who came and went high and didn't pick up fireworks, naturally couldn't hear the romantic roar of the racing engine.

"Nothing. Li Ran hurriedly said with a serious face: "Since His Royal Highness has said this, the minister will bite the bullet and talk about his humble opinion." ”

"You say. Xiao Lingqiu said.

"It's not so much that the forces of the major factions in the imperial court are staring at the war situation in the Western Xinjiang now, but rather staring at one person. ”

Li Ran said.

"Who?" Xiao Lingqiu's eyes flashed.

"Your cousin, the only nephew of Her Majesty the Empress today, the deputy marshal of the Red Phoenix Army, known as "Xiao Invincible", Xiao Di. ”

Li Ran said unhurriedly: "The "big event" back then, so many princes and royal families died, and after the royal family of the same generation as His Majesty, they almost died, only this prince survived, and it is rumored that it was because Emperor Murong Jun cherished the talent of his generals and specially sheltered him. ”

"Although His Majesty has repeatedly ordered that it is not allowed to attack the Giant God Village, but the generals will be outside, and the military orders will not be accepted, such as this Deputy Marshal Xiao...... If one is not careful, sneaking to the west and attacking this last barbarian lair, then it will inevitably cause earth-shattering changes in the situation. ”

"If he wins and erases the barbarians from the western border of the empire forever, then there is no doubt that his invincible Xiao will go down in history, and the military prestige of the Red Phoenix Army will also be famous all over the world, and the real master of this army, Her Royal Highness the Second Princess, will also get unprecedented status and praise in the people and the court. ”

"You must know that the Great Xuan Dynasty, and even the entire continent, have always respected martial arts and the strong. ”

Li Ran paused, and said: "But if he loses, then Your Majesty's hidden anger will be completely detonated, and your right-hand men on your side will play impeachment one by one, fan the flames, and encourage the people by the way. ”

"It's a good thing to say, talking to smart people does save a lot of mind. Xiao Lingqiu said: "Then do you know what His Highness wants you to do?"

"Of course. ”

Li Ran smiled: "If the news of the defeat comes from the front line, the minister, as the former national teacher, will naturally be the first to play Your Majesty, please behead the deputy commander Xiao Di, and strictly deal with all the generals of the Red Phoenix Army with military orders." ”

"What if he wins? Xiao Lingqiu asked again.

"Hmph, what if you win?"

Li Ran made a look of disdain: "Ignoring the will of the Holy Lord, rashly taking a military attack, even if it wins, at most it will only offset the merits and demerits, you can rest assured, when the time comes, the minister will naturally blow the ......wind in His Majesty's ears."

"So...... You promised to be loyal to me?" Xiao Lingqiu looked at the young man in front of him with a little suspicion.

Li Ran thought for a moment, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, "I can only tell Your Highness that the national teacher will always be loyal to the Empress Xuan, who is destined for heaven." ”

"You guy, you were born so handsome...... is so oily, but in his bones he is like a cunning fox who is scheming. ”

Xiao Lingqiu looked deeply at the young man in front of him, who was still two years younger than himself, and after a long time, he remembered something: "By the way, there is one more thing." ”

"I will abstain. ”

Li Ran knew what the other party was going to say, and said bluntly: "If Your Highness wants to talk about the decisive battle of the martial arts conference in three days, then I'm afraid it will disappoint you, I really can't help!"

"Then are you planning to let your seriously injured brother Li Huan fight?" Xiao Lingqiu said.

"Yes, as a real martial artist, it is nothing to go into battle with an injury, not to mention that his injury, under the treatment of the imperial doctor and the monk, has been healed for seven or eight years. Li Ran said.

"If it is ......" Xiao Lingqiu wanted to say something, Li Ran hurriedly grabbed the conversation and said: "If the younger brother is lucky enough to win the final laurel and get the position of military governor promised by His Majesty, then congratulations to Your Highness, you have obtained a strong and trustworthy barrier in the East China Sea, that kid, you are very obedient." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Lingqiu was silent.

She originally wanted to say that if Dongying people were out, and in the end, when Li Huan and Xie Huan finally faced off, he would be defeated by deliberately letting go of the water, but seeing that Li Ran took the initiative to throw out the topic and said it so well-behaved, he was a little speechless.

"You...... Do you really want to abstain? In fact, with your strength, against that Dongying person, the odds of victory should be the greatest. ”

Xiao Lingqiu pondered for a long time, but still said what was in his heart.

"Eh, what do you mean, could it be that in the heart of His Highness, my strength is stronger and stronger than that Brother Xie just now?"

Li Ran stepped forward and said seriously.

"Shut up. ”

Xiao Lingqiu's cheeks were slightly red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Some things are like this now, and they will be like this for the rest of their lives! In my heart, Xie Lang is better than you a thousand, ten thousand times!

"I got gai. Li Ran was not angry, he smiled and made an OK gesture.

He could see that the Glory Cap had been thrown out, and it was up to him to see if this Brother Xie could catch it.

There's no way, he doesn't want to!

I feel like I'm throwing it away, and someone is rushing to put it on my head!

Li Ran shook his head and watched Xiao Lingqiu walk out of the hall step by step.

Not to mention, this woman's back is really good-looking, especially fairy and ancient, quite beautiful and wonderful.

In fact, her foundation is there, as long as her mouth is inserted...... Oh no, it's blocked, don't say a few words of pretending to be forced, and you'll be considered a qualified beauty.

"I'll ask you one last question......"

Xiao Lingqiu suddenly stopped, turned around, hesitated for a long time, and said, "That day, in the court...... Why Wan'er. ”

Hearing this, Li Ran also sighed.

Speaking of which, his grudge with Xiao Lingqiu started from participating in the Jun Shilang Hall exam that day.

Why?

He wondered why!

It's not so much a conspiracy of the dog system as it is ...... Let's say it's fate.

The biggest arrangement of God.

What's more, after getting along for a while, he has completely accepted his destined little princess.

"I can't help it, if I could, I'...... I'd like to have them all, too. ”

Li Ran sighed, looked at the beautiful figure in the distance, and couldn't help it after all.

But as soon as the words came out, he regretted it!

"A despicable person is a despicable person after all, even if he is in a high position, he is only crowned by a monkey. ”

Xiao Lingqiu said coldly: "You will never forget this, when I didn't ask." ”

After saying that, he went away angrily.

After a while, Xie Huan walked in.

I don't know if it's the refraction of the sunlight outside the window or what's the reason, his face looks a little green, which makes Li Ran a little unable to open his eyes.

"What did Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess tell you?"

Xie Huan said coldly.

She ...... She said you're handsome. Li Ran thought for a while and said, "It's not much worse than me." ”

Xie Huan's face sank, "Hugh has to say these frivolous words, let me ask you, is Li Huan's injury still healed? Can he participate in the finals in three days? I have seen your techniques and martial arts...... If you have yours, it would be better for you to fight for him. ”

Yo, I can't see it, this guy is quite human.

Li Ran was about to say a few nice words, when Xiao Wan'er rushed in, pushed and pulled, and forcibly blasted Xie Huan out.

"Li Ran, what did my eldest sister tell you?" Xiao Wan'er said curiously.

"Don't hide it from the princess, she has already begun to woo me and suppress the second princess. Li Ran said truthfully, he now intends to tell Xiao Wan'er a lot of things, hoping to let this girl grow up as soon as possible.

"Really?!"

Xiao Wan'er's little face was shocked: "Although I always knew that the two of them were fighting each other, I didn't expect it to come to this point...... Hey, that's so ignorant!"

It can be seen that our princess Wan'er is very disappointed in the battle between the two unsuccessful sisters.

"What about you...... How did you answer her?" Xiao Wan'er asked again.

"Of course I lied to her, I was on her side. Li Ran said casually.

As soon as he finished speaking, a servant came to report: "Report to Li Shilang, the second princess invites you to come to the mansion to talk." ”

"I'm sure it's to her house! not ...... Martial arts arena?"

Li Ran licked his lips, and there was an inexplicable commotion in his heart, but looking at Xiao Wan'er next to him, he instantly settled down.

"Yes, she said to prepare the food and drinks, please come to the house and discuss the tactical formation together. The servant said.

"Okay, you go and tell the second princess's people, I'll go over right away. Li Ran hurriedly said.

"Yes!" the servant commanded.

"You...... You are not allowed to go! Last time you embarrassed my second sister in the martial arts arena, with her temperament, she must be trying to trouble you!"

Xiao Wan'er stopped her Jun Shilang, and a slender leg was raised high, pressing him to the seat.

"No, my little princess. ”

Li Ran smiled bitterly: "The second princess, like the eldest princess, is ready to win me over." ”

"But...... What does the fight between them have to do with us? Xiao Wan'er obviously didn't buy it: "It's boring, accompany me to the Holy Beast Mountain to find Xiao Hei to play!"

"The battle between them is related to the future fate of the entire Daxuan Dynasty, and naturally it has something to do with us, believe me, lovely, gentle and kind little fairy princess?"

Li Ran raised a handsome face and said gently.

"Well, trust you again. Xiao Wan'er really ate soft rather than hard, although she was skeptical, but after all, she was defeated in Li Ran's crazy licking mode.

She pouted and added, "That's... Didn't you just say that you had promised to help my eldest sister, and now you are going to my second sister's house, is it possible...... Are you going to do both? Wow, you guy, what a chicken thief!"

Li Ran shook his head, quietly supported the girl's long legs, and removed them from his body, "Do you remember what the minister told you today? ”

He has told countless lies in his life, but this one should be the most true.

Thanks to the blessing of the "Friends of the Royals" talent, you have gained +5 friendship from "Xiao Wan'er", which has converted 300 points for you, currently: 3280 points!"
