After the four princes finished speaking, they thought that everyone would kneel down and listen to the order according to common sense, but they saw that everyone did not react. From time to time www.biquge.info, a few people said loudly, "What did the emperor say? ”

Although the rivers and lakes are subject to the constraints of the imperial court, they do not completely listen to the imperial court. For this court, the people in the rivers and lakes have an indifferent attitude, and naturally they don't care much about the holy decree.

The four princes looked at everyone's reaction, and they were angry, but they couldn't attack, after all, this was in Xiangyang, and they were facing heroes from all walks of life. can only say, "My father said that the disciples of Huashan are loyal and unparalleled, and they have made great contributions to the search for the holy sword. It's a pity that Huashan's disciples were killed but the court didn't expect it, if Huashan is willing to give up halfway, he can let the heroes of the world find the sword on his behalf. And Huashan's merits are still recorded, and they will be rewarded together with those who find the holy sword in the future. ”

Listening to this meaning, it means that no matter whether Huashan is willing to give up or not, the heroes of the world can find the sword on their behalf, and those who find the holy sword will naturally be rich and glorious, and they will have no worries about food and clothing.

"The emperor is wise, so very good. Ling Wenlong said. "I'm Huashan faction... Before the four words of willingness to give up were spoken, Huang Xiaoqiang shouted loudly, "Master, no." ”

"Qiang'er, what do you know?" Ling Wenlong was a little angry, he gave up at this time, he just didn't want Huashan to become the target of everyone, but he could protect Huashan's disciples. After all, he didn't want to bear the pain of the heavy blow that his lover had suffered. Besides, as the saying goes, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind. Since the imperial court has the idea of letting Huashan give up, naturally no matter whether the Huashan faction agrees or not, the imperial court has to do so, after all, it is the imperial court.

Lan Yue also said, "Qiang'er, I know what you mean, but I think you should understand your master's thoughts. Huang Xiaoqiang wanted to say, could it be that many disciples of the Huashan Sect sacrificed in vain. But then he also understood the meaning of the master and the mother, and lamented that his experience in the rivers and lakes was too shallow, and he thought too little about everything. So although he was unwilling, he could only give up, and Huang Xiaoqiang didn't want to have Huashan's junior brother sacrificed.

Ling Wenlong said to the four princes, "Thanks to the love of the imperial court, I am unable to do anything, and I am willing to give up this task and let the heroes of the world work together to complete this mission." ”

The four princes looked sorry, "Master Ling, you have to think clearly." ”

Ling Wenlong replied, "I have already thought about it for a long time, and I implore Your Highness to be a witness." ”

A hint of cunning flashed on the face of the fourth prince, and he said, "Master Ling's righteousness, I will return to Beijing to be the emperor of Ming, and I will make a great contribution to Huashan." ”

Ling Wenlong saluted, "Thank you, Your Highness, thank you to the imperial court." ”

"It's just that Master Ling gave up looking for a sword, and the heroes of the world are looking for a sword together, and it is inevitable that they will fight for it, and the contradictions will surge at that time. So the sacrament of seeking a sword has brought a lot of trouble to the rivers and lakes, and the original intention of finding a sword is contrary. Dare to ask the master of Nangong Gate, you are the most obedient person in this Jianghu status, what is your best plan to solve this matter?" the fourth prince asked Xiang Nangong Xuan.

On the other side, after Huang Xiaoqiang listened to the words of the fourth prince, he didn't have any good feelings about this court in his heart. I thought, "This imperial court first gave the title of national teacher to the master in name, so that Huashan is on the cusp of the rivers and lakes, and Huashan has suffered various blows during this time, and the matter of searching for the sword has set off a bloody storm in the rivers and lakes." Now it is said that in order to find the 'sacrament' of the sword and not bring trouble to the rivers and lakes, please ask the master of Nangong Gate to find a way. Now there are really a lot of people who are obedient to the status of the rivers and lakes, and the four princes said that the master of the Nangong Gate is the person with the most obedient status in the rivers and lakes, don't they want to lead the troubles to the Nangong family again?"

Nangong Xuan slowly stood up, looked at the four princes, and said, "Since the four princes asked sincerely, the old man will naturally tell him." ”

What kind of character Nangong Xuan is, he naturally knows the intention of the words of the four princes, but his reply to the words of the four princes means that he also readily accepts the title of the person who is the most obedient to the status of the rivers and lakes. After all, in his opinion, although his martial arts are not the top in the world, it is not an exaggeration to say that the status of the rivers and lakes is not on his right. In the minds of people in the rivers and lakes, he Nangong Xuan is the emperor of martial arts, and what he said is often more effective than the emperor's holy decree for people in martial arts. So the four princes' sycophants are in place.

But everyone in the audience had different expressions. Some rejoice, some are slightly angry, some are jealous, some are 。。。。。。

Among the Shaolin, although the Shaolin abbot Master Xuanku didn't care about this fame and fortune at all, the junior brothers and disciples who came with him to celebrate his birthday were angry, and they were all thinking in their hearts, "The person with the most obedient status in the rivers and lakes is also the abbot, how can it be his turn Nangong Xuan." ”

Nangong Xuan naturally didn't care about everyone's expressions, and then said, "The old man thought for a moment, and came up with a way to let the heroes of the rivers and lakes find this sword, but without losing his harmony." ”

"What method?" everyone had this question in their hearts at the same time, and thousands of pairs of eyes stared at Nangong Xuan at the same time.

Seeing that Nangong Xuan was holding back his words, the eighth prince was still anxious, and said, "Nangong Gate Master, don't sell Guanzi, hurry up, what are you going to do." ”

Nangong Xuan smiled, still said slowly, "Today, heroes and heroes from all walks of life are here, and there are so many people here." I think in addition to wishing the old man his birthday, there is also a purpose, which is to know if the Ziwei Sword is in the hands of my Nangong family. The Nangong family and the other three major families have been in charge of Jingzhou for many years, and they naturally know Jingzhou well. And that crape myrtle sword, don't hide it from you, my Nangong family really knows some eyebrows. ”

Hearing Nangong Xuan say that the Nangong family knew the eyebrows of Ziwei Sword, all of them listened attentively, and some people who were sitting farther away were afraid that they would hear it, so they all hurried to the side of the main hall.

Nangong Xuan turned a blind eye, and then said: "And people walking on the rivers and lakes will naturally inevitably fight and kill, if I say the whereabouts of this Ziwei Sword, let you fight and kill, wouldn't it be my Nangong Xuan's guilt." Therefore, the fourth prince asked Lao Yu, and Lao Yu thought of a way to alleviate or even avoid all this. This method is to decide by force. ”

As soon as the "contest to decide" was said, the audience was in an uproar, but then everyone thought that this opinion was very good. Except for the superficial contest of force, it is difficult to think of a better solution for a while. Problems in the rivers and lakes must be solved by the methods in the rivers and lakes.

Nangong Xuan continued, "Everyone, this competition naturally has to be exquisite. If you want to talk about fighting alone, I think that no one present can beat the master of Xuanku in Shaolin, the Qingxu Daoist of Wudang and the Ling head of Huashan. In the end, the three leaders have to decide the winner, and they have to fight for at least three days and three nights. The delay is so great, it's better to send two disciples from each sect to win glory for the master. The disciple represents the master, which can better reflect the master's attainments. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone made louder voices, but most people agreed in their hearts. After all, what Nangong Xuan said is really good, in terms of fighting alone, no one can beat the heads of the three major factions. The heads of the three factions of Emei, Kongtong, and Kunlun, although they are unhappy with the top masters listed by Nangong Xuan, they can't disagree, in their hearts, Ling Wenlong and the other three masters are really powerful to them. However, when it comes to the level of disciples' abilities, the heads of these three factions naturally feel that their disciples are the best in their hearts.

The original intention of the heads of some other small sects was naturally just to join in the fun, and let them fight against the heads of the three major sects, which was bound to be defeated. Now Nangong Xuan said that letting his disciples fight, that is, giving them a chance. Naturally, these small sects also agree.

On the other hand, the disciples of Shaolin Wudang Huashan all thought that they could overwhelm the group in the disciples' generation, so they also voted in favor of Nangong Xuan's idea.

"Haha, since everyone agrees with the idea of decay, let's do it according to the competition. Now the most important thing is to drink and eat first, after all, this is my birthday banquet, eat and drink well, and only then can I have the strength to compete in the afternoon. Hahaha. Nangong Xuan smiled heartily, and after signaling everyone to continue eating and drinking, he drank freely in his place.

However, the people in each sect have their own thoughts, and the wine and food on the table are also tasteless. Some disciples left the venue early for the competition after the banquet, and began to say that they would not get drunk or return, which naturally became an empty word.

Huang Xiaoqiang is no exception, but he is now struggling, struggling with whether to play in the afternoon. After all, just a while ago, the master came over and told them that all the disciples of Huashan abstained, and those who violated the law were expelled from the master's door. Huang Xiaoqiang sighed, looked at the sky, a few dark clouds appeared in the sky at some point, and the trees by the square were rustled by the wind. "Is it really a mountain rain that is about to come and the wind is full of buildings?"
