The Great Prince,

His name is Xue Dongxi!

As the first candidate for the crown prince of the Wind Thunder Country, his status in the Wind Thunder Country is second only to the current emperor.

Compared with Xue Dongjie's arrogance, Xue Dongxi's personality is relatively calm and low-key.

And he is amiable and has a good reputation among the people.

There have been many times when the common people have seen the eldest prince helping the grandmother cross the road, helping the lost child find his mother, and even helping a peasant woman pick vegetables, etc.

In the court, he also had the support of most of the ministers.

And he was very good to his subordinates.

When he heard that the father of a courtier had died of illness, he rushed over overnight and wept loudly, and his grief was so palpable that those who didn't know thought that the emperor had died.

Even so, he did not sit on the throne of the crown prince.

Why?

Because the Emperor of the Wind Thunder Kingdom didn't like him, but liked Xue Dongjie, the son whose personality was most like him.

This has also led to the delay in the decision of the crown prince!

The emperor liked the second prince, but the ministers supported the eldest prince, forming a delicate tug-of-war.

Now the emperor's condition is getting worse day by day, and even now he is sick in bed and unable to go to court, and the balance is gradually tilting towards the eldest prince.

The ministers and officials who were originally watching on the sidelines also gradually began to contact the eldest prince.

In short, Qin Muchen's eldest son is in a very bad situation.

...

Qin Muchen came to the front yard.

I saw that there were many royal guards standing in the entire courtyard, and outside the scalpers were guarded by the black armor army, and a huge warship was floating in mid-air.

In the middle of the guards, a man in a light yellow shirt sat in a chair.

The man is handsome, his hair has a faint luster like black jade, and he has fair skin that women envy.

This is the eldest prince, Xue Dongxi!

"Yun Ruoshui, the deputy head of the scalper faction, has seen the eldest prince. ”

The clouds are like water and salute.

Xue Dongxi raised his hand to signal for exemption, with a shallow gentle smile on his handsome face:

"It is said that the head of the scalper sect is one of the best beauties in our wind and thunder country, and when I saw it today, this prince knew that this 'number two' should be removed. ”

Yun Ruoshui looked calm: "Your Highness praised it." ”

Xue Dongxi smiled slightly, his dark eyes looked at the Floating Cloud Pagoda of the Scalper Sect, and asked softly, "How long has Master Zhou's retreat been going on?"

"One year, three months, eleven days. ”

Yun Ruoshui hesitated for a moment and answered truthfully.

Xue Dongxi sighed and said: "A cultivator's cultivation of a lifetime is like a white horse passing through a gap, and it is not easy to blink an eye." When I was a child, I also saw the head of Zhou, just like yesterday. ”

Yun Rushui said respectfully: "If the head of the gate is out, I will inform him and let him visit you in the house." ”

"It doesn't have to be. ”

Xue Dongxi smiled, his gaze turned to Qin Muchen, and his voice was gentle, "You are the Qin Muchen who has a good relationship with my second brother." ”

"I've seen the Great Prince. ”

Qin Muchen didn't have a trace of awe on his face, and he bowed generously.

Li Si, who had been secretly protecting him, hesitated for a moment and went up to salute: "I've seen the eldest prince." ”

But Xue Dongxi didn't look at him.

"Sure enough, handsome and extraordinary, the dragon among men. ”

Xue Dongxi praised, "I heard that the second brother was able to exterminate Wang Zhikun's rebel this time, and you have made a lot of contributions." On behalf of the Wind and Thunder Country, I would like to thank Mr. Qin for his help. ”

"Don't dare, this is what I should do, it is everyone's responsibility to exterminate the anti-thieves!"

Qin Muchen's voice was generous and powerful.

Xue Dongxi smiled and nodded, the appreciation in his eyes was even stronger.

Then, he looked at Yun Ruoshui again and asked, "Master Yun, Chen Jiba is a disciple of your scalper faction." ”

Here it comes!

Sure enough, it's for this!

Yun Ruoshui's heart froze, and he said lightly: "No, he has already quit the Scalper Sect on his own and joined the Nine Fragrance Sect......! In the process of encircling and suppressing the anti-thieves, he unfortunately died!"

"Then was he a disciple of the Scalper Sect before?" Xue Dongxi's voice was still very gentle.

Yun Ruoshui was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "Yes!"

Xue Dongxi sighed: "I've seen Jiba before, and I still like him very much."

Moreover, his aunt was the concubine of the former emperor, and she had cultivated my mother, and she personally taught my mother's palace etiquette.

So...... Chen Jiba is also half of my royal family. ”

Yun Ruoshui didn't speak, but a chill slowly climbed up her back, and she didn't know why, the big prince in front of her with a kind face made her very depressed.

"To insult a member of the royal family is a capital offense. ”

Xue Dongxi's elite eyes looked at Qin Muchen and said lightly, "So I want to know if Mr. Qin has ever bullied Chen Jiba." ”

"Nope!"

Qin Muchen shook his head, "I am good friends with Jiba, once I fell into the water and my hands and feet were numb, it was Jiba who desperately swam to save me ashore."

Since then, I have known that this Kiba is not easy!"

Everyone: "......"

Xue Dongxi suddenly didn't know how to answer this conversation.

He simply waved his hand: "Let them come over." ”

The soldiers behind them automatically split a way, only to see two men carrying a stretcher and walking forward, followed by a couple.

It is Chen Xingyu and Wu Sleeveqin.

Seeing these two people, everyone's faces changed, and the Great Elder subconsciously lowered his eyes, clenched his fists, and a faint sadness crossed his eyes.

"I came this time because I was entrusted by the Chen couple to uphold justice for Chen Jiba. ”

The eldest prince said slowly.

The scalpers were silent.

The courtyard became unusually quiet, the drop of needles could be heard, and even the sound of breathing was deliberately suppressed, and some timid disciples even trembled with their legs.

"Kiba!!"

Qin Muchen pounced and wailed, "Why did you die so miserably, when you said that you would cry and laugh together, why did you take the first step!"

The corners of Chen Xingyu and Wu Sleeveqin's mouths twitched.

I've seen shamelessness, but I've never seen such shamelessness!

Wu Zhiqin pointed at Yun Ruoshui and said sharply: "Master Yun, I sent my son to you to practice, how did you protect him."

As the head of a faction, but you can't even protect a disciple, how can you be the head of the sect!"

Yun Ruoshui said lightly: "I only protect the disciples of our scalper faction, and I have no obligation to protect those traitors. ”

"That's!"

Chen Xingyu said coldly, "My son is iron-clad, how can he be a soft bone who defects casually! You must have bullied him, so he impulsively switched to other sects!"

"Don't be angry, uncle and aunt, your son used to be the face of my scalper faction, who can bully him. ”

Qin Muchen said with a smile.

At this time, the eldest prince suddenly glanced at the disciples of the scalper faction, and said lightly: "Who of you has a good relationship with Chen Jiba on weekdays, I can take him to the palace to temper." ”

Hearing this, there was a commotion in the crowd.

After a long silence, a bald man walked out.

This person is a disciple of the First Academy, and he used to be one of Chen Jiba's younger brothers, but he has been much more low-key later.

The eldest prince smiled strongly: "Tell me, has Chen Jiba been bullied." ”

"Yes!"

The disciple gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

"Who bullied him?"

The bald disciple lowered his head, and finally pointed at Qin Muchen: "It's him, it's him, it's him!"

The eldest prince's smile did not decrease.

Yun Ruoshui and the others looked extremely ugly.

Qin Muchen shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Great Prince, you-"

"Ding, the Heavenly Dao mission is about to be released, please prepare the host. ”

At this moment, a prompt suddenly sounded in my head.
