Volume 2: The Holy Capital Scroll Qingyun Banquet: (11) The Unavoidable Battlefield
"Even in the later stage of the outside world, I dare to shout!" Tuoba Qing looked at the leaving Tuoba dyed silver teeth and clenched it, and the white jade fan in his hand had already been pinched out of a crack.
"Qing'er, you are speechless. Wan Guifei, who had been concentrating on combing the cat's hair behind her, suddenly spoke.
"Mother. Tuoba Qing turned around and listened to the training, no longer having the arrogant appearance before.
"Some things should be said, some things should not be said. Wan Guifei stroked the cat in her arms, her voice was soft, and she looked gentle: "One wrong step, one wrong step." ”
"That's why our Wanjia will do whatever it takes to play this game of chess. Wan Guifei glanced at Tuoba Yaoyue, who had been sitting upright: "It has started since Tuoba Ran was born, and if it fails, it will turn into ashes, so don't be careless." ”
"Yes......" Tuoba Qing glanced back at Tuoba Yaoyue, turned around and sat back.
All the chips of their thousands of families are pressed on Tuoba Yaoyue. It's just that fate will not be controlled by others, and you can't be careless until you die.
"Uncle's medicine, it's time to work, right?" Tuoba Yaoyue looked at Wan Guifei behind her, and there was not much emotion in her eyes.
"At that time, I will first lead Ye Xuan to the stage to provoke Tuoba Ran, and I will completely stimulate the medicinal properties after she comes to power. Tuoba Qing looked at Tuoba Yaoyue in a low voice, and clenched a small white jade plaque in her hand.
"I hope so, she still has some of her uncle's handles in her hands, and it will be very troublesome if she grabs the lead and goes to the criminal department. The poisoning is just for the sake of insurance, I hope that my brother will not blame my mother, it is my uncle's meaning. ”
"Even if she doesn't use poison, she is no match for me, and no one among the princes except the eldest brother is my opponent. ”
"The emperor has arrived!" At this moment, the eunuch's long, shrill voice suppressed the noise in the big store, and all the courtiers seated got up and knelt in the aisle to worship their king together.
The top of the main hall is full of golden pillars, and the golden dragon is about to soar around the pillar for nine days.
Emperor Yunze sat on the dragon chair with the current Empress Yun in his imperial robe: "Sit down, sit down." "The first thing Emperor Yunze saw when he entered the palace was to look for Tuoba Ran, and when he saw that small figure, Empress Yun could clearly feel the palm of the man beside him, who was usually not angry and arrogant, trembled.
The dignified and beautiful Queen Yun couldn't help but smile: "I didn't expect Xiao Ran to really come to the banquet, it seems that she didn't plan to make trouble with the emperor, and the concubines congratulated the emperor first." ”
"Alas, this is what I owe her. Emperor Yunze shook his head helplessly.
"Sit!" Yang Gonggong shouted, and the courtiers below returned to their seats. Ye Xuan glanced at it and found that there were really a lot of young talents behind him, some of them were brought by the princes and ministers, some famous families in the capital, and some scattered people with extraordinary strength.
Among the younger generations here, the strength of the second prince is the strongest, and he is already in the late stage of the psychic realm. As a prince, the means must be endless, and the strength is far above Bei Tianxiong, if Ye Xuan wants to do something against him, then only by summoning Medusa can he have the possibility of a fight. But if it was changed to Tuoba Ran, Ye Xuan didn't know if she could defeat it.
Without the Wind God Sword, would Tuoba Ran still be as brave as he was in the Winter Spirit Ancient Realm?
Liu Ran to Tuoba Ran, the personality changes in this have become extremely clear because of the awakening of the Wind God Sword, and Tuoba Ran's growth speed far exceeds Ye Xuan's cognition, especially her methods.
How could a sixteen-year-old girl have the mentality of sweeping all kinds of cases in a state in just one month? Ye Xuan couldn't say how much Tuoba Ran had changed, as long as he was with him, Tuoba Ran was still the same character as before, but the things and methods he did were no longer the same as before.
"Look at our Fengyan today, it's really full of talent. Emperor Yunze looked at the young talents on both sides of the hall and sighed sincerely: "If it was more than ten years ago, I would never have dreamed that there would be such a grand scene today, I salute all the ministers with a cup, work hard for a year, and today the monarchs and ministers drink hard!"
Emperor Yunze raised his wine glass and raised his glass to His Highness's ministers.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" all the courtiers raised their glasses.
Ye Xuan held the wine glass, his face was pale, his arms trembled slightly, and the wine in the glass actually spilled a few drops of poison, and the effect had already begun to attack.
It's not time yet!
Ye Xuan drank the wine in the cup and endured the pain in his internal organs, as if there were thousands of ants in his body gnawing his internal organs, especially in his heart, as if there were swords cutting each other. Even if it was so painful, Ye Xuan didn't dare to show it, and he simply blindfolded his eyes so that people couldn't see his expression.
"Are you okay?" Tuoba Ran looked at Ye Xuan, who was a little pale, and asked with concern: "It's really not good, let's leave now, we don't have to give the old emperor any face." ”
"It's okay, I said I'll help you today, it's important to go, I can't go. Ye Xuan grinned, almost no different from usual.
"The auspicious time has come, serve!"
As Gonggong Yang's voice fell, a group of beautiful-looking and elegant palace maids carried dishes from outside the main hall and poured in from outside the main hall and put plates of dishes on each table.
Then the glamorous music sounded the dancing girls to the hall, and a scene of singing and dancing was leveled.
The ministers feasted and drank so happily, and Emperor Yunze looked quite happy, he usually didn't drink much, but he drank a lot today. His eyes have been on His Highness, but he is not looking at those dancing girls but at Tuoba Ran, if it weren't for the constraints of reason, I'm afraid he would have already called Tuoba Ran to his side.
However, Tuoba Ran is still the farthest away from him, and the prince has no power, no power, and no support, so the seat is naturally farther away.
"Hey, what's on it?" Ye Xuan was constantly observing things around him in order to distract himself and relieve his pain, and found that there were seven crystal light balls on the stone platform on one side, and there were some items in them with strong vitality fluctuations.
"The prizes, the top few have a share. Tuoba glanced at the items, "What, you like it?"
"No, I feel a trace of power similar to the Phoenix Divine Flame in those things, which is very familiar. Above the main hall, Ye Xuan didn't dare to rashly use the divine soul power to detect those things, so he could only ask more, in fact, he was a little eager to do so, and the benefits brought by the divine soul flame were unforgettable for him.
"You should be talking about that Feng Yanyu, which can only be obtained by ranking seventh, which is not too valuable. ”
"I see. ”
Tuoba Ran looked at the jade pendant that shone red and remembered it in her heart, she was going to decide on this thing!
The six princes naturally liked landscape poetry and wrote a poem during the banquet. As a result, a poetry fighting meeting was held, and many talented women and talented people in the capital were not lively about poetry.
"Strange, why don't you see Tuoba Ran's reaction?" Tuoba Qing looked at Tuoba Ran on the other side and frowned motionlessly, according to the time, now the poison in Tuoba Ran's body should have worked, why is it still the same as no one?
Feng Yuyin will lose its effect after four hours, and she should have taken it.
It's just that they don't know that the person under them is not Tuoba Ran, but Ye Xuan.
"No matter. Tuoba Qing got up and walked out of the ranks, causing Tuoba Yaoyue on the side to pout the corners of his lips: This is one more move.
As soon as Tuoba Qing came out, the Seventh Prince Tuoba Zhong looked at her and already understood.
"The poems of the sixth brother are really wonderful, but today's main dish is martial arts, not literature. Tuoba Qing reminded the six princes who were preparing to write poems, and the six princes scratched their heads or put down their pens, today is the Qingyun Banquet, not the Poetry Fighting Meeting.
"The lesson of the fifth sister is that I have overplayed. ”
"It doesn't matter. ”
The six princes didn't care too much, he didn't have scheming by nature and didn't like politics, he only loved landscapes, poetry and literature, and he has always been kind. Tuoba Qing said this, he naturally wanted to stop, but he didn't know what the fifth sister wanted to do.
"Father, it's almost time, and it's time for Qingyuntai to rise. ”
"Well, it's been this hour, and I'm sure you've been waiting for a long time. Emperor Yunze put down his glass and exhaled a long breath of wine.
"But before that, the child had a proposal, which was the appetizer of this Qingyun banquet. As soon as Tuoba Ran's words came out, it was appetizing, and even Emperor Yunze was interested: "Oh, what does Qing'er think?"
Tuoba Qing laughed when she heard it, this matter has been done!
"Since my father succeeded to the throne, the country has always practiced martial arts, and now is the time when talents are surging, and Ye Gongzi of the Winter Spirit Ancient Realm led many rising stars to fight against the barbarians, and tried to protect the northern border of the country from being invaded. ”
As soon as these words came out, Tuoba Ran's pupils shrank suddenly!
"And he is willing to die for his country to protect thousands of families, such a feat is rare in the world. Today, better talents gathered, those of us who were born in the splendid land have never experienced the war and do not understand the difficulties of the front line, it just so happens that the Qingyun Banquet is to meet friends with martial arts, and the children want to see the demeanor of my Fengyan warriors. ”
As soon as these words came out, the people of His Royal Highness began to whisper, they had also heard about the war that had occurred in the Winter Spirit Ancient Realm, how dangerous the northern realm was at that time, it was all up to those people in the Winter Spirit Ancient Realm to turn the tide, and Ye Xuan was the mainstay of the people, everyone wanted to see what strength this young man who fought against the barbarians was.
"Is that Qing'er willing to fight him?" Emperor Yunze was obviously also interested, Ye Xuan had saved Tuoba Ran, so he still had some impression of this boy, he was currently the apprentice of the national teacher and Tuoba Ran's close attendant, and the relationship between the two should be excellent.
"Tell my father, my son is willing. At this moment, the Seventh Prince, Tuoba Zhong, suddenly came out of the ranks: "When Erchen led the troops in Xuchen Prefecture for a long time, although he was not talented, he had seen the power of the barbarians, and he was willing to fight with Ye Xuan. ”
"Good!" Emperor Yunze nodded.
"No!" Takubaran suddenly burst out and shouted loudly, his little face flushed with anger.
"Oh, little sister, don't you believe in Ye Xuan's strength?" Tuoba Qing looked at Tuoba Ran with a pretended puzzlement.
"He was seriously injured and not yet healed, and the master specially told him not to use force. ”
"My sister really cares about people, the dragon marrow given by my father a few days ago was used, and no matter how serious the injury is, it will definitely be good if I use that kind of medicine, right? Besides, the national teacher's means are all over the sky, and it is impossible to cure even a little injury. ”
"Well, what your fifth sister said is right, since you are a person who cultivates the physical body, your body is naturally strong, and it will not be so fragile. The eldest prince who had been sitting there before also spoke, and he also wanted to see Ye Xuan's true strength, especially his divine soul power. Although Tuoba Ying is also a god soul power, his system is particularly talented, and he also has a super strong war spirit.
"No!" Tuoba Ran didn't give an inch, staring straight at Emperor Yunze. As long as he invalidates this matter, then Ye Xuan doesn't have to move anymore, just now she clearly saw that Ye Xuan couldn't even hold a wine glass.
"Xiao Ran is starting to be willful again. As soon as Tuoba Qing said this, everyone laughed tacitly, Tuoba Ran was often reduced to the object of cancellation by them, and even some princes and ministers educated the younger generations who did not know etiquette to use Tuoba Ran as a negative teaching material.
Emperor Yunze paused and could see that Tuoba was displeased, and now he finally met her a few times, if he lost his temper again, there was really no way, so he was simply ready to stop it.
"Willing to do it!" At this moment, Ye Xuan suddenly stood up, making Tuoba's nerves tense.
"Stupid, what are you fooling with them? Don't you know that your injuries are not healed?" Tuoba Ran lowered his voice and didn't know what to say Ye Xuan, what strength Tuoba Zhong was, she knew best how difficult it was for the injured Ye Xuan to defeat him.
"I said, I'll help you. Ye Xuan got up and smiled at Tuoba Ran, and drank the sake from the wine glass.
"You're doing it!"
"Remember, I am a poisoned arrow in your hands. Ye Xuan interrupted her: "Everything I do is for you, so you have to promise me that you will definitely be able to get the first place." ”
Tuoba was stunned, what the hell did he want to do!
"Dye'er ......" Ye Xuan walked to the center of the main hall: "The first battle, I'll ......"
"Humble Ye Xuan, willing to challenge His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, I hope to teach you!"
"Hahaha, there's a kind!" Tuoba Zhong smiled fiercely, his eyes calm.
