Chapter 346: The Throne

As an assassination, Tie Linglong's preliminary preparations were still very successful.

The day after the Dragon King set out from Biyu City, she escaped from the Dragon King's Mansion, disguised as a young slave, and blended into a caravan heading to the Easy Sea, where she hid near the Dragon King for many days and was never discovered.

In Shiguo, she still lurked silently, during which she went to the palace and stepped on a point, and had a preliminary understanding of the princess's life.

Her idea was that if the dragon king couldn't marry the princess, she wouldn't need to show up.

On the day when the Dragon King and Shangguan Fei each received half of the votes, she knew that the Dragon King would definitely be the final winner, so she decided to do it.

The assassination should have been easy, but the person who rushed in front of the princess turned out to be Xu Yanwei, which surprised her, and she had to withdraw the narrow knife, but after such a short delay, the Guan Shang who was guarding outside rushed in.

The two fought from inside the house to outside the house, and Tie Linglong was not Guan Shang's opponent and became a prisoner.

Guan Shang recognized this little girl, but she never imagined that the person who instigated Tie Linglong to kill the princess would be the royal teacher and lotus girl of Xiaoyue Hall.

Guan Shang hid Tie Linglong and lied to the princess that the assassin had run away, but he was still puzzled in his heart, and he couldn't figure out the Dragon King's intentions, or Xu Yanwei was empathetic, and he also understood Tie Linglong's character, "She must have acted secretly behind the Dragon King's back, and she blamed me for teaching her too many messy things." ”

This is the second time Tie Linglong has acted without permission, the last time she and Chu Nanping infiltrated Jinpeng Castle, she had made the Dragon King very passive.

Gu Shenwei couldn't forgive her anymore, whether her actions were well-intentioned or not, it was a detriment to the Dragon King.

"I'm not going to kill you. Gu Shenwei was not angry or reproached, but his tone was firm and unquestionable, "I can't forgive you either, from now on, you are no longer the personal guard of the Dragon King, and you are no longer a person in the army of the Great Snow Mountain." ”

Tie Linglong looked at the Dragon King in surprise, she knew that she would be reprimanded and punished, but she didn't expect it to be so serious.

Gu Shenwei's words were not finished yet, and he paused for a while to continue: "Go back to Shule Country to find your brother, he will tell you who the enemy is, and your current martial arts can completely take revenge." Don't show up in front of me again unless you think you're better than I am. ”

"Dragon King. Tie Linglong's green eyes were full of tears, "I know it's wrong, but I'm for your good, and you ...... in your heart."

"Then don't be good for me anymore. Gu Shenwei interrupted her, "What I need is a soldier who obeys orders, not a self-righteous little girl." Get out. ”

Tie Linglong bit her lip, swaying between grief and begging, it was useless to ask the Dragon King for mercy, he was a hard-hearted person, she raised her head, turned to go out, and resisted the urge to cry.

Gu Shenwei looked at Lin Xiaoshan and more than twenty swordsmen from the Great Snow Mountain, "Tie Linglong is no longer a person from the Great Snow Mountain, and when I see her again in the future, I will treat her as an enemy, and if there is a private collaborator, I will be killed." ”

Everyone bowed down and said yes, but no one dared to say anything to persuade them, and they didn't remember who the dragon king had heard.

Tie Linglong walked around the city, without a goal, and didn't know when to go, holding a breath in her heart, she missed her narrow knife very much, she was now empty-handed, like a little lion who had its claws removed.

In the night, a woman stood in the way, Tie Linglong seemed to know that she would appear, and tears finally swept away, "The Dragon King doesn't want me anymore, drive me back to Shule." ”

The lotus girl approached and looked at her with tears in her eyes, "The dragon king once drove me away, but you see, I have returned to his side and gained his trust. ”

Tie Linglong raised her head, the lotus girl's eyes were as hazy as smoke, and there seemed to be starlight flashing in the depths, which made her fascinated and worshipped, in front of the dragon king, in front of anyone, she did not betray the lotus girl, "How did you do it?"

"Because I have practiced peerless martial arts, I can compete with the Dragon King, he needs me, and I can help him do great things. ”

"But I'm too stupid to practice peerless martial arts, the pill you gave me...... I didn't eat either. ”

The lotus girl smiled, "The pill is just an auxiliary, the real peerless martial arts still need to be studied and practiced hard." ”

"I can study hard and practice hard, and I can endure any hardship. Tie Linglong's eyes shone with determination.

The lotus girl did not immediately point out the maze, but looked at the little girl, as if she wanted to see through her body, look directly at the deepest soul, and then leaned over and whispered a few words, and then took out a crescent-shaped jade tablet from her arms, "Take it, go to the place I said, there are countless hardships, and after you endure it, you will learn peerless martial arts." ”

Tie Linglong was not without hesitation, but the lotus girl made her unconsciously trust, and the ruthlessness of the dragon king aroused her determination, so she took the crescent moon jade piece and held it tightly in her hand, "But the dragon king still wants to marry the princess." ”

"No, leave it to me. The lotus girl smiled and spoke softly, but she was as unquestionable as the dragon king.

At the same time, the king of Shiguo, who finally grasped the real power, was continuously issuing orders to hunt down the remnants of the Yang family.

The Dragon King led the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain to the top of the city, and looked at the camp of Jinpeng Castle a few miles away, where it was still quiet, not leaving, and not taking action.

It's unusually quiet.

As night fell, the inhabitants of the city turned off their lights early, but few of them fell asleep, pricking up their ears as if they could hear the sounds of the palace.

The king was a little tired, his physical condition was not enough to support a long time of thinking and dealing with a lot of government affairs, but he did not want to rest, and still sat on the throne in the main hall, holding the imperial seal tightly in his arms.

He had only sat on this throne once before, on the day of his accession to the throne, after which the main hall was closed, and all affairs were carried out in the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Royal Palace.

The Ju clan finally returned to power.

He couldn't remember how many orders he had given that day, many of them trivial, and at his request, the servants of the palace were carrying buckets of water to thoroughly clean the place where the prime minister was staying, and the guards untied their knives and pinned them in their belts.

It was a strange feeling to see his orders being carried out quickly, as if he had suddenly turned into a giant, and his body gradually swelled, and even the empty hall was about to be unable to accommodate it.

It was this feeling that made the king sit on his throne all the time and sent everyone out of the main hall, "all of them are mine." He muttered to himself, almost in tears.

The dragon king led a few people into the dim hall, and in the huge room, only a few candles were lit, and no one dared to come in to add some light without the king's order.

The king looked at the man with the sword at his waist, hugged the imperial seal in his arms tighter, and suddenly a wave of anger broke through his head, he had just issued a decree, no one was allowed to enter without being summoned and announced, but in the palace, the dragon king did not belong to the list of "anyone".

The more than 200 fierce swordsmen under the Dragon King are still the most powerful force in the city, and the royal army is insufficient in number and discouraged, and it is not enough to resist a strong enemy.

Moreover, the Dragon King has the ability to kill him at any time.

The king's anger turned into fear, and he secretly hid the imperial seal in his cloak and opened his arms, "Ah, Dragon King, the Savior of the Stone Kingdom, my right and left hand, we have succeeded, are you here to receive the position of prime minister?"

"That's right, it's an agreement between us. Gu Shenwei stopped, more than twenty steps away from the king, and heard the hidden jealousy from the other party's sweet words.

"Yes, yes, it's my honor to share the stone kingdom with the dragon king, I just feel that the position of prime minister has wronged the dragon king. The King's heart was beating wildly, and he was testing the Dragon King's reaction.

"I have no intention of serving as the prime minister of Shiguo. The dragon king's words made the king happy, but his words were not finished, "This is the best choice for prime minister." ”

Zhong Heng walked out from behind the Dragon King and bowed to the King, "Your Majesty, I hope I can satisfy you more than Yang Dou." ”

"Satisfied, very satisfied. An unnatural smile appeared on the king's face, the taste of power was so delicious, once he tasted it, he couldn't stop it, but he lacked exclusive power and had to compromise with more powerful figures, "I hope Nakahara won't mind losing a great general." ”

Gu Shenwei didn't want to discuss the issue of the Central Plains with the king, so he changed the subject, "What does Your Majesty plan to do with the Yang family?"

The Yang family is extremely large, there are more than 100 men and women, if he can really take power alone, the king hopes to kill them all, but he finally retains a little sobriety, "I am waiting for the Dragon King to come over and discuss together, the Yang family is rebellious, and it must be severely punished." ”

"My suggestion is to demote all the Yang clan members to civilians, expel the main members from the Stone Kingdom, and let the others freely choose where to go. ”

The Dragon King's suggestion basically meant the final decision, but the king couldn't help but object, "That's it, at least the head of the first evil Yang Douxiao should be shown to the public, and his sons are not good people." ”

"The Yang clan has controlled the Shi Kingdom for many years, with deep and broad roots, and has complex in-law relationships with the countries of the Western Regions, especially the Xiaoyao Sea countries, and killing the Yang clan will make the Shi Kingdom fall into isolation, and may even provoke the revenge of the coalition forces. Spare him and let him flee, both to appease the nations and to judge who is the enemy and who is the friend. ”

The king's face was a little red, and the dragon king taught him a lesson, which made him very uncomfortable, "Just do what the dragon king wants." He said that his enthusiasm cooled, and even the imperial seal in his arms lost a lot of appeal.

Gu Shenwei walked outside the palace, thinking in his heart how to bring the army from the western border of Biyu City here, gain a firm foothold, expand his power, and at the gate of the palace, he happened to bump into a few swordsmen escorting in a guest who asked to see the Dragon King.

Shangguan Hong did not flee to the camp outside the city, he knew that it was not safe at all.

"Congratulations to the Dragon King. Far away, Shangguan Hong shouted loudly.

"What are you doing here?" asked Gu Shenwei with a frown.

"The dragon king forgot, the secret that Mr. Zhang put on me, hehe, I said that once the princess chooses the concubine, I will hand over the secret. ”

Gu Shenwei didn't forget, but he didn't pay too much attention to it, Zhang Ji's tricks were nothing more than to save Shangguan Hong's life, Gu Shenwei felt that he had seen through Mr. Teaching's tricks.

Therefore, when he took the bag handed over by Shangguan Hong, he didn't expect that there would really be a secret to reversing the situation inside.
