Chapter 15: Saying the Wrong Thing

Wu Peng smiled: "Ling Ye, have you noticed that there are a few more people in the court that you haven't seen?"

Ling Ye replied: "I didn't know who was in the court before, so naturally I didn't know. I found out that Lu Ming did not go to court, and it is estimated that the emperor does not want to see him yet. ”

Wu Peng said: "Hehe, it's me who asked the wrong question. ”

He paused, and said to himself: "Prince Lantai has gone to court, and he is the first one on the left." His Majesty summoned him to the emperor for a reason, and you will soon find out. The person who came out later and you were a criminal was someone from his faction, and nine times out of ten he instructed it. ”

Ling Ye sighed and said, "I have no intention of getting involved in the fight between you. Your Excellency, I have done this for you, solved this problem, shouldn't you do it too?"

Wu Peng smiled meaningfully: "Can you still stay out of the matter? From now on, you are already the new dignitary of the empire, although you do not have real power, but it is enough to attract attention. ”

Ling Ye said lightly: "I don't care, I only care about when Lu Ming was killed by Lan Tai now." ”

Wu Peng sighed: "Okay, you sit back first, I'll go get ready and talk to Lu Ming." He stood up.

This is Wu Peng's place, the owner is leaving, and he naturally won't sit in the middle of the night. He got up to take his leave, and walked back to the lodging that Wu Peng had arranged for him.

Wu Peng didn't keep it, but said to him meaningfully: "Don't go far, it's best not to leave the Marshal's Mansion!"

When passing through the courtyard corridor, Ling Ye saw Leng Rushuang meditating cross-legged under a cherry blossom tree, holding the sheathed sword in his right hand and leaning on the ground, probably practicing meditation. Ling Ye had no intention of disturbing or peeping, and he limped under his feet, intending to take a detour to avoid it.

Leng Rushuang opened his eyes and looked at him: "I heard your footsteps from afar, and now I still want to hide, is it a little late?"

Ling Ye stood still and said lightly, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to disturb, but I didn't know you were here." ”

Leng Rushuang snorted: "It seems that I chose the wrong place to practice?"

Ling Ye said in his heart, I'm afraid so!

Leng Rushuang grabbed the sword and stood up, looking him up and down for a while: "I came back without missing arms and legs, and it seems that I have perfectly solved three problems in the court?"

Ling Ye nodded: "Meaning, it's easy to understand." ”

Leng Rushuang showed a curious look on his face: "How did you answer it?"

Ling Ye paused. Leng Rushuang listened quietly, pursed his lips, and said: "The turtle is the turtle! You said the wrong thing, do you know?"

Ling Ye was stunned: "Wrong words?"

Leng Rushuang snorted: "Not bad." The empire does not believe in ghosts and gods, and anyone who mentions ghosts and gods will be thrown out of the country with a light beating, and the heavy one will be imprisoned or exiled. Therefore, what Nine Holy Maidens you have in the court is not a story passed down from the old men of the empire, but a ......"

She dragged out her voice and said, "The story of the old man in the magic capital!"

Midnight: "...... It is good to circulate everywhere, and if it can answer Hu Rao's question, it is a good story. "What he didn't come out of is that this is the story of his father and him.

In his heart, a question suddenly popped up - could his father actually be from the Southern Holy Capital......? A knight of the Guards who used to be a saint, otherwise, where did his Occult Fire Skill come from?

The corners of Leng Rushuang's mouth showed a sneer: "Turtle! You may be thinking too simply. The Hu envoy's questions have not been answered, and there is no shortage of people to arrest you. But after the Hu envoy is gone, you will be in a terrible disaster! There will definitely be people who will slander you and ask His Majesty the Emperor to arrest you and torture you!"

Ling Ye was silent for a while, and said lightly: "Then I know why someone followed me all the way just now! That's to find out where I live so that I can arrest people!"

Leng Rushuang snorted from his nostrils: "It's good to know." But don't worry, since you are now in the Marshal's Mansion, with the gold-lettered plaque of the Marshal's Mansion, no one dares to be so presumptuous unless His Majesty the Emperor personally orders it!"

Ling Ye finally understood why Wu Peng had told him so meaningfully not to leave the Marshal's Mansion before. He couldn't help but feel unhappy in his heart, and said lightly: "A manly man, how can he rely on others?"

What he didn't come out of was that a shrewd person like Wu Peng would naturally hear that this story was very inappropriate, but why didn't he remind it?

Leng Rushuang snorted: "Anyone can talk big, but it's not necessarily whether you can do it." For example, if you want Lan Tai to fight with Lu Mingwo, don't you need to rely on the power of your father-in-law?"

These words hit the sore spot of the night. His face changed color slightly, and he was speechless for a while.

Leng Rushuang realized that he had said the wrong thing, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Don't think about it." Again, the power of one person is limited, and the power of many is unlimited. People in this world are supposed to rely on each other a lot of times, and no one can really be independent and independent, such as my master Sword Saint, although he is the first strong man, but if there is no teaching from his master, how can he become a Sword Saint who inherits the mantle of the ancestor?"

Ling Ye was silent for a while, and said, "The marshal is your father-in-law, but not my father-in-law." I have no reason to rely on him. "It's time to go.

Leng Rushuang shouted, "Where are you going?"

Ling Ye said coldly: "Say goodbye to the marshal!"

Leng Rushuang's face also changed: "Don't go! There are people everywhere in the imperial capital who want you to die, and if you go outside, you are looking for death!"

Ling Ye said: "Then I want to find out, since there are people everywhere in the imperial capital who want me to die, why did the marshal leave me in the mansion?

Cold as frost: "...... Your stepfather admires you. She remembered what Wu Peng had said to her that night, and the Xuan Gong practiced in Ling Ye was very strange, which made him very interested.

Could that be the reason why the stepfather wants to win him over?

She is not stupid after all, how can she talk to Ling Yeming directly with this kind of thing?

Ling Ye said coldly: "Appreciation alone is not enough to make people willing to take risks. Even if the marshal were standing here, I would ask him why was that?"

Leng Rushuang said: "You...... Why are you so difficult to talk to? The blue faction is powerful, and my father-in-law thinks you are very helpful, so he regards you as a fellow believer. My father-in-law didn't see you as a subordinate, nor did he see you as a pawn, so do you have to make trouble yourself and make everyone unhappy?"

Midnight: "......"

looked at him coldly and angrily, and scolded: "What an iron man!"
