Volume 2: The Holy Capital Volume Qingyun Banquet: (4) Conspiracy
The roof of Yanfu Building, between elegant words.
Dozens of Star Source Realm powerhouses were hiding in the side room outside the house and waiting for an opportunity, so tight that there was no chance to eavesdrop at all.
In the house, several important ministers of the court headed by Wan Dashou sat together, including the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, and even a second-grade member of the Ministry of War. Except for the absence of people from the Criminal Department, there are people from other ministries involved.
Emperor Yunze doesn't like to form a party for personal gain, this is a piece of Emperor Yunze's counter-scales. After all, two generations of the court were destroyed under the party and government, and Emperor Yunze spent half his life reorganizing the court.
However, when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no fugitives.
In recent years, the power of the Criminal Department has become stronger and stronger, and after those "nerds" who uphold the Legalist ideology get power, they really don't give anyone face, and they are completely thrown out of the camp by the secret party.
Among the secret parties, the Wan Dang, which is dominated by the Wan family, is the strongest, especially in the East Window Incident of the "Thousand Parties" that had an accident in Buhuangzhou not long ago, and the two major families involved in it were almost beheaded, and most of the family members were confiscated into the army and had no possibility of turning over.
It has gradually evolved into the current situation of the dominance of all parties, some people have already stood in line, and some people are still hesitating.
"Why didn't the fourteen princesses die in the Winter Spirit Ancient Realm? Didn't Lord Wang guarantee that the fourteen princesses wouldn't come out?" At the table, Wan Dashou spoke, the light in the room was very dim, so that people couldn't see his face clearly, but he could faintly detect the reproach.
"Xia Guan did use the space lock to open a gap there, and the barbarians also came in. But who would have thought that the national teacher would actually find that place, with the help of that kid named Ye Xuan, he forcibly opened the space teleportation spirit array, I didn't expect this variable. The soldier in the shadow lowered his voice, and when he said this, cold sweat was already soaking his back.
The space lock is the second artifact in the world, and it has been cast with the power of the human race for hundreds of years, and it is a super artifact specially forged to defend against the invasion of barbarians. Due to the wide range of spatial locks, they are divided into three parts, and each empire controls one of them.
And opening the space lock without permission is the crime of the Nine Clans. That thing was accidentally exploited by the barbarians, so it was possible that the Wind Rock Empire would really become the first inland battlefield against the barbarians.
"It's okay, don't be in a hurry. Wan Dashou was holding a scantily clad girl in his arms, a little lazy. The thick palms roamed over the bewitching and white body, and the expression was unusually enjoyable. The girl looks very similar to the human race, and she is incredibly beautiful. The only difference is that her ears are more slender, unlike the roundness of the Terrans.
In particular, there is a hard object on the forehead that resembles a horn, which is very short and short, only about the length of a melon seed.
It turned out that this new dish of Yan Fulou was an elven girl who had just been sent from the frontline battlefield.
The elves are the highest bloodline of the barbarians, rich in beauties, to what extent? There is a saying that has been circulated since ancient times: any elf girl can become a queen.
This is true, the beauty of the elves can only be understood when you see it with your own eyes. According to legend, Li Taifu, one of the famous poets of the Eastern Continent, saw an elf girl and abandoned his pen and ink, and vowed never to write poetry again.
Since then, the nine heroes in the literary world have become eight heroes, and Li Taifu went to the barbarian battlefield in order to find the elf girl, and has since disappeared from people's sight. There are rumors that he died under the knives of the barbarians, and there are also rumors that he hugged the beauty and lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests.
And now Wan Dashou is holding a girl from the elf clan in his arms, and the girl's face is like a zombie sitting on his lap, her eyes are empty, and she no longer has the brilliance of being an elf. Even in such a dimly lit room, the beautiful face of the girl can become a stunning light.
However, as long as she entered this Yanfu Building, she was greeted only by being played to death.
"That witch Gu bead is still on Tuoba Ran's hand, and Tuoba Ying also has it, we just have to wait, isn't this how Queen Lan died......?" Wan Dashou ripped off the girl's hairband and the few pieces of clothing on her body and pulled her into his arms.
The black hair was like ink, and the white and beautiful body of the elven girl was exposed to everyone's sight, and the puppet was lying in Wan Dashou's fat arms, and crystal tears flowed from her empty eyes.
Such a fragrant scene, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites on the other side couldn't help but swallow it.
"If you do the math, it's only seven or eight years, which is just enough for us to do the follow-up. Wan Dashou grinned, and the two rows of golden teeth glowed with cold light, like blades.
"Does Lord Wang like it?" Wan Dashou glanced at Wang Xiuyuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites not far away, and smiled slyly.
"Don't dare, Lord Wan laughed. Wang Xiuyuan hurriedly excused himself, he didn't dare to snatch this sexy stunner from Wan Dashou's hands.
"It's given to Lord Wang over there, such a beauty is rare. Wan Dashou squinted his eyes and pulled the elf girl up, and put it on the table like an object: "Lord Wang, you can rest assured, this elf woman has been dealt with, and her soul consciousness has been sealed." She will do whatever you tell her to do, or even tell her to kill herself immediately, and no one will track her down. ”
"As long as Lord Lao Wang cooperates and sends this thing to the fourteenth princess, I think there are some things that can be slightly advanced. Saying that, Wan Dashou took out a wooden box and put it between the white and tender thighs of the elf girl, still smiling and looking at Wang Xiuyuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
"Respectfully...... Obey your orders. Wang Xiuyuan looked at the smile on Wan Dashou's face and was shocked into a cold sweat, and hurriedly thanked him. He vaguely understood what the slightly ahead thing meant, and he also understood that he was just a pawn after all, and if he wanted to survive, he could only stand in line and be used by others.
......
Outside the temple.
"Finally came out, I don't want to go into this hellish place again in my life. Tuoba Ran has been complaining since he came out of the Imperial Dragon Palace, he was sitting on the dragon chair just now, and Emperor Yunze kept pulling himself and didn't let him go and said something to eat together. If it weren't for Tuoba Mozhan to come forward and excuse himself, it is estimated that Tuoba Ran would have turned his face on the spot.
"Well, from now on you can stay in this holy capital, it may be very unaccustomed at first, but after a long time,. You two go back to my Absolute Wing Palace first, I have asked Qingyu to make delicious food for the two of you, I'll go do some things first. ”
"Yes, master!" Ye Xuan and Tuoba Ran looked at each other and smiled, and ran down the dragon steps quickly.
"Hurry up, I'll take you to visit the palace, it's super big!"
"Hmm!" Ye Xuan followed closely, and as soon as a layer of snowflakes fell on the steps that had been stepped on by the courtiers, a series of footprints were quickly stepped on by the two of them, intertwined with each other, just like one person.
"These two children ......" Tuoba Mozhan smiled lightly as he watched the two and a half children run away, and disappeared into the snow with his sleeves. Since he was in the palace, then he had to arrange a position for Ye Xuan, at least so that he had the ability to pass through the palace without being excluded by others.
"There's everything in the palace, where do you want to go? I'll take you. ”
Ye Xuan looked at the majestic palace wall, his vision was blocked one after another, and even when he looked up to see the complete sky, he was blocked by the eaves of the pavilion.
"Is there such a high place? I want to see what the Holy Capital looks like. ”
"A very high place?" Tuoba thought hard, usually she had wings to fly as high as she wanted, and she really never paid attention to which place in the palace was the highest.
"If you want to talk about high places, Si Tianjian's stargazing tower is very high, let's go there and have a look first. ”
Ye Xuan agreed.
However, Tuoba Ran had just stepped down the Dragon Stairs and had not yet moved, when he was stopped by an old eunuch: "Your Royal Highness Princess." The old eunuch pinched his sharp voice and called out to Tuoba Ran, and his voice was as ugly as a knife cutting glass.
"You ......" Tuoba got goosebumps all over her body, she didn't seem to know the old eunuch.
"The villain is Yang Han, the waiter next to the emperor, the emperor Nian Princess has just returned to the palace for a long time, and he gave a purple coral chariot to send the princess back to the palace. The old eunuch made a gesture of please, but his eyes were reluctant.
The fourteenth princess was not welcomed in the palace, and the other princes often made fun of her. The palace is full of people who tend to be inflammatory, and even some subordinates often don't give Tuoba face. This Yang Han is the emperor's inner servant, and he is also the master who eats inside and outside, and secretly collects a lot of people's silver.
However, Yang Han has been serving Emperor Yunze when he was young, and Emperor Yunze has turned a blind eye to his old feelings.
"Princess, please, the emperor is still waiting for the slave family to go back to his life. The old eunuch was a little impatient when he saw that Tuoba Ran was not moving, and without waiting for Tuoba Ran to move first, he walked directly to the side of the chariot and waited, looking like he loved to do it or not.
"Don't you want to do it?" Ye Xuan was the first time he had seen such a gorgeous thing, and his divine soul power had already begun to think about what kind of spiritual weapon should be forged from this material.
"No, let's go. Tuoba Ran couldn't bear to interrupt Ye Xuan when he saw such a novel appearance, so he didn't think much about it. There could only be one person sitting in the chariot, so Ye Xuan walked outside.
"Go to Si Tianjian's stargazing tower. ”
"Get up ......," the old eunuch shouted in a yin and yang strange voice, and raised his steps. However, at this moment, the old eunuch showed a strange smile. A small eunuch peeking not far away confirmed that Tuoba Ran was seated in the chariot, and then quickly ran to another pavilion.
"Princess Qing, Grandpa Han is on the road. The little eunuch quickly ascended the pavilion and whispered in the ear of a beautifully dressed girl.
"Good, good job. The girl's jade fingers pinched a cherry in the jade plate on the table, smiled and gently stuffed it into the little eunuch's mouth, and the white jade-like palm patted the little eunuch's cheek, as if this was the reward.
"Thank you...... Thank you, Fifth Princess......" The little eunuch watched the beautiful girl get up and leave, the cherry in his mouth still refused to swallow, and when he walked to no one, he spit out the cherry again and wrapped it carefully.
"The fifth princess is really beautiful......"
The little eunuch touched his face wistfully, not noticing that the wrapped cherries had begun to turn black and rot. If I had swallowed it just now, I am afraid that I would have broken my stomach by this time.
......
"Gonggong Yang, is this the way to the Stargazing Tower?" After walking for a long time, Tuoba Ran found that it was wrong, this palace road is very biased, and there are not many people walking, even if you want to take a shortcut, this road is also a long distance from the Stargazing Tower.
"The youngest entered the palace at the age of seven, and he can't go wrong after walking all his life. The old eunuch smiled inexplicably, and turned his back to Tuoba Ran so that people couldn't see his expression clearly. However, the speed of the step was twice as slow, which seemed to be deliberate.
However, at this moment, a chariot also appeared at the end of the road, and from a distance, it seemed that a woman was sitting on the chariot. The chariot is quite luxurious and expensive, with the petals of the golden silk tent to open the way, and there are more than 20 servants accompanying it.
Seeing that step chariot Ye Xuan vaguely understood something, Tuoba Ran also raised his eyebrows - this palace road is not spacious, and it can only accommodate one chariot to pass.
