Lord please forgive me

Chapter 290 The gentleman speaks but does not

Recently, there has been rumors in the Jianghu of Jiannan Road that a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl led seven or eight master-level masters to uproot the entire Jiannan sect and kill them all. More than 80 people, including Yixian and his daughter Zhu Yuqing, were all dismembered and thrown on the official road to be eaten by insects, ants and crows.
That scene was like a hell on earth, everyone who saw it vomited all the food in their stomachs,

The girl was sitting carelessly in a restaurant in Lanzhi County, playing with a gray-brown small wooden sword in her hand. The shape of the small wooden sword is not exquisite, and the material is ordinary peach wood, but it is not difficult to see from the girl's eyes, She treasures it.

"At the beginning, I was always sticking to Big Brother Lu and begging him for this little wooden sword. His expression of wanting to give it but being reluctant to give it every time is really funny when I recall it. Isn't it Sister Liang who cut it for you? Seeing how distressed you are, if you had given it to me back then, maybe I would have said something nice about you to Sister Liang in private, and then used some tricks to match the two of you, so that the two of you would not die together. Opportunity to confide my heart to the other party, alas~ I regret it, I shouldn't speak ill of you at Sister Liang just because you didn't give me the little wooden sword, I'm sorry, Big Brother Lu."

After the girl finished talking to herself, she raised her sleeve and wiped her eyes.

Around her sat eight persons,
Xu Pingan, a young man who is ranked No.17 in the martial arts list and is good at wielding double knives,
Still wearing tattered clothes, the young generation of outstanding masters Wuyingshou Yan Kuan, Ghost Spear Zhang Liao, and Xuanhua General Lu Qiong all appeared in Fengyi Tower in Luoyang and participated in the assassination of Rongfengtang.

That unsmiling swordsman in blue was the young Mo Ke. He went to Qingzhou in the south of the Lingnan to challenge Yingzhen, but on the long street, his sword was broken by Mu Qingwan, who was lower than himself. Originally, he regarded this event as his life. The biggest shame, but after guessing that it was Yingzhen who played the trick, he was relieved. Not only would he no longer feel ashamed, but he even felt honored. The reason why he joined the Tianci Mansion was because Hejian Wang Lili gave him a gift He has a famous sword, [Shang Dongqing], so he agreed to work for Tianci Mansion for three years.

The only woman among them was a charming young woman, Mrs. Hongchun, the number one master of hidden weapons in the Heaven-sent Mansion, and the third-ranked assassin in the world.

Jinpao Lang Wang Yuting once boarded the Rong Clan's Breaking Wave together with the young girl. Under his nose, he watched his master being captured by Jiang Peining. Although the young master didn't blame him afterwards, every time he thought of it, he felt ashamed.

And the one sitting next to the girl, who has been drinking silently, has a great background, ranking second in the entire Tianci Mansion, Wang Xiangjian, the king under the king, and in the long box beside him is his famous weapon Fang Tian painted a halberd.

Since there was no fighting in Hebei Province, he was idle when he was idle, so he went out with the girl, as a way to pass the time,

He grabbed a piece of sauced beef and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing and saying:

"Princess, please agree in advance that we will not get involved in the matter between Ying Zhen and Kong Yuan. This is what the prince explained before he left, and you agreed at that time."

The girl nodded and said seriously:

"I did say yes, but I'm back on it now."

Xiang Jian rolled his eyes and didn't continue talking.

Ghost Spear Zhang Liao said with a worried look on his face:

"Since the lord has explained it like this, there must be a deep meaning in it. Your Highness, it is better for us not to intervene."

Li Yang didn't treat Zhang Liao as well as he did Xiang Jian. She raised her eyebrows and said:

"What? Are you teaching me how to do things?"

"Subordinates dare not," Zhang Liao hurriedly lowered his head.

In Li Yang's view, Kong Yuan occupied King Chu's body, and he has long been their Li family's great enemy, and killing him is only a matter of time. The reason why his father told him not to act carelessly when he came out this time is because the overall situation is now settled. Emperor Li Yan has agreed to pass the throne to his eldest brother Li Jian in the future. In this case, in order to avoid major disturbances in Jiannan Road, the Li family chose not to attack Kong Yuan for the time being after discussion, but to adopt a step-by-step approach. This method gradually weakened Kong Yuan's control over Jiannan Road, so Aunt Li Qingxue went to Jiannan to intercept Yingzhen in person.

But Li Yang did not agree with this method in his heart. First of all, Li Xun, the king of Chu, died at the hands of Kong Yuan. Then whoever killed Kong Yuan in the Li family would naturally increase his reputation in the royal family. As the son of a vassal king, it will be very difficult to inherit the great treasure in the future. After all, Emperor Li Yanke still has three adult princes. Will these three orthodox princes watch the throne fall to his family?

Therefore, Li Yang believes that it is very necessary to build momentum for the elder brother in advance, so that everyone in the world thinks that Li Jian, the county king, has the appearance of an emperor. Only when his reputation surpasses everyone else will his enthronement in the future be a matter of course.

Moreover, now everyone can see that the Demon Emperor Yingzhen is gradually regaining the Demon Sect, and the first person he wants to kill is Kong Yuan, a Holy Lord of the Demon Sect who has no ambition to become emperor, and a counterfeit with great ambitions. King Chu, even a blind man knows how to stand in line.

In the past, because of her position with Yingzhen, she, Li Yang, was able to distinguish between public and private, but now, the two have become less hostile, relying on their friendship with him, to earn a share for the elder brother in the future. The love of incense from the Demon Sect is extremely rare and precious.

So from the very beginning, Li Yang planned to intervene in this matter. As for the chaos in Jiannan Road after Kong Yuan's death, in Li Yang's view, it was the least of the two powers harming each other.

As for the fact that the elder brother Li Jian was secretly appointed, only Xiang Jian was aware of it, so the other party just reminded him as a matter of routine, but in fact, he knew in his heart that Li Yang would definitely intervene.

Although Xu Ping'an is in the Tianci Mansion, he is actually a guest official, so he doesn't need to be as cautious as Zhang Liao when he speaks.

"Your Highness, the Baowangmeng, the most powerful force in Jiannan Road, has surrounded the small town where Yingzhen is located, and there are fourteen great masters sitting in the town. There must be a fierce battle there. It is of course whether we intervene or not." It's up to His Highness to decide, but we can't miss this battle, the town is now full of experts, if you watch the battle, it will be of great benefit to us warriors."

Li Yang looked at the young master with a smile, and said loudly:
"It's so boring to watch the battle. Brother Xu, don't you want to make gestures?"

Xu Pingan heard what she meant, and said with a faint smile:

"Of course I listen to the princess, if you let me end, I will end,"

The young Mo Ke suddenly interjected from the side:

"I heard that among the fourteen great masters, there is one who uses a sword. This person is mine."

The others couldn't understand the princess's meaning now, and they echoed their words one after another.

Li Yang turned his head to look at Wang Xia Wang Xiangjian, who only cared about drinking, and said with a smile:
"Where's Uncle Xiang?"

Xiang Jian said expressionlessly:
"A gentleman speaks but does not move."

Li Yang asked:

"Is that uncle Xiang a gentleman?"

Xiang Jian raised his glass and said sadly:
"Unfortunately, I am not."
