Chapter 24: The Storm Rises

Jingshi, on the night of Hong Dingwu's attack, the crown prince Hong Dingwen came to Hanmeixuan.

In Hanmei Xuan, in Li Jianniang's boudoir, Hong Dingwen sat alone at the table, drinking wine, listening to the melodious piano sound, admiring the beauty in front of him, and his eyes were filled with love from time to time, but he was very well concealed.

Li Jianniang, the first beauty of the new generation of Beijing, the dream lover of countless men, when she first appeared in Hanmeixuan, countless young talents felt that with their talents and status, it was not easy to win a dusty woman. But the cruel reality made their faces crackle, let alone take down Li Jianniang, and they had never seen Li Jianniang's face a few times. There was once a son-in-law who spent a lot of money, just to be alone with Li Jianniang for one night, but was ruthlessly refused, the embarrassed and angry son-in-law made a big fuss in Hanmeixuan, and left with a stomach full of resentment under the persuasion of friends, but, the next day, this son-in-law was found dead in his room, although many people suspected that it was Hanmeixuan's hand, but there was no trace of evidence pointing to Hanmeixuan, plus the child's brother's family suddenly did not pursue the matter, so it was over, but this incident also made everyone realize that Li Jianniang is a thorny rose, not that they can pick it if they want to。

But now, Li Jianniang is willing to lead a man into her boudoir to be alone with him, and is willing to play the piano for him, which will let those pretentious young talents know that they must not be jealous and vomit three liters of blood.

Hong Dingwen took a deep sip of wine, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, how could he not feel the strong love contained in the beautiful sound of the piano, but how could he marry a woman in a green building when he was about to succeed the unification.

After the song was finished, Li Jianniang looked at Hong Dingwen and asked timidly, "I wonder if the prince likes the song that the concubine played just now?"

"Miss Li's music is the best in the world, how can anyone not like it. Hong Dingwen said with a smile.

Listening to Hong Dingwen's general official tone, Li Jianniang's eyes couldn't help but gloom for a while, his mind had been clearly expressed, couldn't he still see it? Thinking that he was just a small grass growing in the mud, how could he be worthy of the noble and white snow lotus that grew on the Tianshan Mountain.

"Brother will come over later, please wait for a while. Li Jianniang said lightly, and then walked to the window, ignoring the person who pretended to be asleep.

Only Hong Dingwen was left alone to look at the wine in the cup and smiled helplessly, the empty bottle to the moon, ashamed of the beauty, it is indeed the two major regrets of life, but what can I do, life is always like this, fish and bear's paw can not have both, as the prince, he will inherit the unification in the future, in the eyes of outsiders, it can be described as infinite, but whether he wants to or not, he still has to lose something because of the identity of the prince.

Such a dull atmosphere could not last long, but after a while, a cold man pushed the door and walked into this room, he looked cold, and he looked quite cool, and his appearance was somewhat similar to Li Jianniang. This person is Li Jianniang's brother Li Tianya.

"I don't know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came here to find Li today?" is worthy of being a cold person, and his words are so direct.

"Since Brother Li is so direct, then I won't beat around the bush. I hope that Brother Li can help me take down the underground world of this Jingshi. Hong Dingwen looked at Li Tianya solemnly and said word by word.

"Oh, do you know who controls the underground world of this Jingshi? ”

"Under the dome of heaven, there is no shadow of assassination. Hong Dingwen took a sip of wine and said lightly.

"Then do you know who is in control of the shadowless?"

"Imperial General Guard. ”

"Do you know that the general's power has spread all over the world, and you want our brothers and sisters to die. Li Tianya's eyes were cold.

"The northwest wind is fierce, and the end of the world is cut off with one sword. This may be difficult for others to ascend to, but for your Northwest Blade, anything is possible. ”

"What if after the shadow is destroyed, let me wait to become your minion?" Li Tianya sneered.

Brother Li laughed, if you want to count it, you, me, and the people in the world are just slaves of history, each of us was born with different tasks, and we are running all our lives just to complete this task. And where is the saying that who is the minions of whom? Hong Dingwen said with a smile.

"Wang Cheng, the head of the East Factory, the general Wei Yan After ten years of development, the power has spread all over the world, and it has become a big trend, if these two people are not removed, the empire will fall, and the truth of the death of Li Jingtian, the governor of Liangzhou, will be frozen forever. Without the help of the Imperial Machine, it would have been difficult for Brother Li to pry out the truth from the general's jaws with the power in his hands alone. Hong Dingwen continued.

Li Tianya stared at Hong Dingwen coldly, his eyes flickering.

"Brother......" Li Jianniang on the side shouted anxiously. She understands that it is indeed difficult to find out the truth of the year with their strength alone, let alone avenge her father.

"Okay, I agree to your request, but I have three conditions, first, there is no subordinate relationship between us, second, all my actions must be premised on finding out the truth of the year, and third, if there is a situation that endangers the safety of my brother and sister, my brother and sister will withdraw immediately. Li Tianya said.

"Okay, I agree. Come, drink this wine, and we will be allies from now on. Hong Dingwen said with a smile. Hehe, it's easy to get on the boat and it's hard to get off the boat, so how can you let you get off the boat so easily and slip away.

"It's getting late, the palace will retire first, and I wish Brother Li to take the underground world of this Jingshi as soon as possible. After drinking a glass of Chinese wine with Li Tianya, Hong Dingwen left Hanmei Xuan and walked along the path to the East Palace.

Halfway through, there was darkness in front and darkness in the back, with a wall on the left and a wall on the right. Hong Dingwen walked on the path by moonlight.

Suddenly, a dark cloud obscured the moon and the stars in the sky, and the whole world was plunged into extreme darkness, and even the quiet hustle and bustle disappeared without a trace.

Two black shadows suddenly appeared in front of Hong Dingwen, and two black shadows also appeared behind him, forming a trap for Hong Dingwen.

"I don't know why a few knights blocked Hong's way?" Hong Dingwen stared coldly at the two people in front of him and asked lightly.

"A big man asked me to warn the prince that this road is not going to work. One of them said coldly, his voice was merciless, and it was particularly dark and terrifying in the silence of the night.

"Oh, if I get rid of those who stand in my way, then the road will not be open. ”

"Then it depends on whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has this ability. But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't need to panic too much, the four of us brothers didn't come to ask for your life this time, just to remove one of your legs, you can rest assured, our four brothers have been professionally trained, our knives are very fast, and they are also very sharp, and they will not let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be tortured too much. The shadow continued.

"Hands-on. ”

A black shadow slashed at Hong Dingwu's left leg with a knife, and the faint cold light emitted by the long knife in the dark night also showed its sharpness.
