The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Late at night, Xiao Feiliu left Prince Jing's Mansion with Mei Changsu. It was not convenient for Nihuang and Meng Zhi to stay any longer, so one left through the main entrance and the other climbed over the wall.

After everyone left, Wang Gang also disguised himself, left the palace, and went to a villa secretly purchased in the opposite direction of the palace.

After he returned to Beijing, he had sent someone to contact Qin Banruo and asked her to wait in another courtyard.

When Wang first arrived, Qin Banruo had been waiting for two hours. He was quite anxious and scratching his head. It looked like he was addicted.

"His Royal Highness Prince Jing." Qin Banruo saw Wang Gang walking into the room and was so excited that he seemed to be seeing a relative.

"Did you bring longevity ointment?"

Wang Gang smiled coldly and took out a small bottle from his arms.

Qin Banruo's eyes lit up and he stretched out his hand to grab it, but Wang Gang deftly avoided it.

"Have you brought what the king wants?"

Qin Banruo had a look of pain and struggle on his face when he heard this, but in the end he gritted his teeth and took out a kit.

"This is the bag of tips my master gave me when he died. He told me not to give it to Prince Yu unless it is extremely urgent."

Wang Gang reached out to grab the brocade pouch and found that it was motionless. He couldn't help but throw the vial in his hand into the air. Qin Banruo released the brocade pouch and reached out to grab the vial.

After getting the vial, Qin Banruo couldn't wait to open it, took out a little Fushou ointment, and took out the pipe in front of Wang Gang.

Wang Gang ignored Qin Banruo, opened the brocade bag and took out a letter.

The letter was not written by Master Qin Banruo and Princess Xuanji of the Hua tribe, but by her sister, Princess Linglong.

This letter from Princess Linglong was written to King Yu, clearly stating his true identity.

Prince Yu is the biological son of Princess Linglong and Emperor Liang.

At that time, Emperor Liang succeeded in seizing the crown prince with the help of the Hua tribe and ascended the throne as emperor. He also took Princess Linglong as his concubine and gave birth to Prince Yu.

Unfortunately, the flowers did not bloom for a hundred days. After he ascended the throne, Emperor Liang noticed Princess Linglong's ambition, killed her mother and left her son, and sent the Red Flame Army to annihilate the Hua tribe.

Before Princess Linglong died, she wrote a suicide note, telling her biological son Prince Yu all the truth, and gave the letter to her sister, Princess Xuanji, for safekeeping.

Princess Xuanji had already established the "Red Sleeve Move" at that time. She felt that the letter was important and could completely overthrow the Hua clan, so she hid the letter.

Before she died, she asked her disciple Qin Banruo to be loyal to King Yu and made her swear an oath that she would never give the letter to King Yu unless absolutely necessary.

Wang Gang tried every means to obtain this letter, not to blackmail King Yu, but to deal with Emperor Liang.

"When you have the chance, give this letter to Prince Yu to read." Wang Gang imitated Princess Linglong's handwriting, copied the letter, and then threw the copy to Qin Banruo, who was slapped on the head, and kept the original copy for himself.

Qin Banruo was in a daze from smoking at this time. She subconsciously took the letter and seemed to have completely forgotten the oath her master asked her to make.

After she read the letter, she completely sobered up.

"Prince Yu is actually the Queen of the Hua Clan!?" Qin Banruo was in shock.

Wang Gang carefully put the original away and said to Qin Banruo: "Since King Yu is from the Hua tribe, he is destined to be impossible to be established as the crown prince."

Qin Banruo woke up instantly and thought about many things.

"Di Liang supported King Yu just to balance the power in the court and prevent the prince's family from becoming dominant. He never thought about making King Yu his heir!?"

Wang Gang chuckled and said, "You're not too stupid after all."

After Qin Banruo got rid of his addiction, his mind became clearer than ever before.

"Your Highness Prince Jing, could it be that you knew this secret a long time ago, so you tried every means to get this secret letter from me." Qin Banruo looked at Wang Gang with fear in his eyes.

"Although King Yu's life experience was well concealed by his father, there are always some veterans in the court who know what happened back then." Wang Gang said with a corner of his mouth.

Qin Banruo was surprised and said: "Prince Jing, why did you tell Prince Yu the truth?"

Wang Gang said: "Prince Yu is destined to miss the throne in this life. Your master should have realized this a long time ago. Why do you need you to assist him?"

Qin Banruo's back instantly soaked in cold sweat.

"Master, master?" Qin Prajna muttered to himself in a confused voice, "You have caused great harm to my disciple."

Qin Banruo thought that her master, Princess Xuanji, asked her to assist her nephew out of selfish motives, but she risked her apprentice's lifelong future.

"Your Highness Prince Jing, what exactly do you want?" Qin Banruo gritted his teeth.

Wang Gang said calmly: "I want to give you a chance, a chance for the Hua tribe to truly escape from the sea of ​​suffering."

"You want me to be loyal to you!" Qin Banruo said.

Wang Gang shook his head and said: "I have no interest in you, but the red sleeve trick behind you will be of great use to me."

Qin Banruo glanced at the pipes and longevity ointment on the table, and couldn't help feeling bitter.

Since becoming addicted to that thing, Qin Banruo has tried many ways to quit, but the results are not ideal. She has realized that she has been controlled by Wang Gang.

"I can promise you that when you ascend to the throne in the future, you can give the Hua people a place to restore their country." Wang Gang said with a chuckle.

"Why should I believe you?" Qin Banruo secretly asked.

"This king can swear by my ancestors. If you violate the oath, you will not die well."

The ancients were very fond of oaths. Because of an oath, Qin Banruo didn't even dare to look at the secret letter given by his master, so he naturally believed in the power of oaths.

"What does Prince Jing want from me?" Qin Banruo said with narrowed eyes.

"I want you to lurk back to King Yu, tell me all his secrets, and use Fu Shou Ointment to control the top management of Hongxiuzhao." Wang Gang said bluntly.

"I will never harm my sisters." Qin Banruo said firmly.

Wang Gang looked at Princess Linglong's secret letter and the longevity ointment on the table playfully.

Qin Banruo's face turned pale and he stopped talking.

Wang Gang continued: "Good birds choose trees to roost. King Yu is destined to miss the throne. Only I can restore the Hua people to the country. You have no choice!"

Qin Banruo said to himself with a grimace: "Yes! I have no choice!?"

Wang Gang threw another bottle of Fushou Ointment to Qin Banruo and said: "I will only give you one month. After one month, you cannot use the Fushou Ointment to control Hong Xiu and recruit senior officials. I will choose another person. You are not the only one left in the Hua clan." .”

Qin Banruo's face turned pale again.

Wang Gang turned around and walked out of the room. When he reached the door, he said, "I hope you won't disappoint me."

Qin Banruo looked at Wang Gang's leaving figure, her eyes full of hatred. She looked at the longevity ointment on the table, and finally stretched out her hand involuntarily.

…………

The next day, Wang Gang did not go to court, but went to the registration office where Princess Nihuang competed to recruit a bride. Not only did he register himself, but he also wrote down Mei Changsu's name.

Wang Gang helped Mei Changsu not only because he was a close friend of Jamel Xiao, but also because behind him was the Jiangzuo Alliance, the largest force in the world, not to mention the [-]-strong army of Prince Mu's Mansion behind Princess Nihuang.

After signing up, Wang Gang went directly to the mansion of Ning Guohou Xie Yu. In front of everyone, he pulled Mei Changsu and ran to Prince Jing's mansion without giving Mei Changsu a chance to refuse.

With such behavior, many people guessed that Mei Changsu had defected to Prince Jing. When the crown prince and King Yu got the news, they gnashed their teeth and scolded Mei Changsu for being a treacherous villain. After accepting their gifts, he went to seek refuge with Prince Jing.

Three days later, Wang Gang dragged Mei Changsu to the competition ground and handed him a battle list.

"You are placed in Group B and I am in Group E. We can only meet in the finals." Wang Gang said with an evil smile.

Mei Changsu found out that his name was on the list for the competition and that he had been divided into groups. He almost fainted from exhaustion.

"If I go into the ring with my body, I am seeking death. How can I survive until the finals!" Mei Changsu said angrily.

Wang Gang could not refuse: "I have promised Nihuang that you must be the winner in this contest to recruit a bride."

Mei Changsu wanted to say something, but Wang Gang pushed him into the ring. After he stood firm, he realized that his opponent had been waiting for a long time and was still an old acquaintance.

"Brother Su, are you here to participate in the marriage recruitment?" The moment Yan Yujin saw Mei Changsu, he thought he was dazzled.

That's right, Mei Changsu's opponent in the first duel was none other than his old friend Yan Yujin.

"Yujin, I was forced to come on stage." Mei Changsu said with a bitter face.

Yan Yujin couldn't help but look at Wang Gang in the audience.

"Yan Yujin, Mr. Su is the man that Princess Nihuang likes." Wang Gang raised the corner of his mouth and said loudly.

Yan Yujin was stunned and turned to look towards the left side of the stands. At this time, Princess Nihuang was staring at him with a sinister look on her face, as if to say, if you beat Mei Changsu in this competition, I will let you look good when you come down.

Yan Yujin felt the double murderous intent from Wang Gang and Princess Nihuang, and swallowed involuntarily.

"Ouch." Yan Yujin suddenly squatted down, covering his knees and said, "My old injury has recurred."

Mei Changsu watched Yan Yujin's performance speechlessly, thinking, can you be more fake?

The referee ignored this and walked directly to Yan Yujin and asked: "Little Marquis, can you still compete?"

The veins on Yan Yujin's forehead twitched, and he immediately admitted defeat: "My old disease has relapsed, so I will give up and admit defeat."

For the sake of fairness, the referee asked again. This time Yan Yujin simply lay on the stage and pretended to be dead.

In this way, Mei Changsu won the first battle.

When he walked off the ring, Mei Changsu smiled bitterly and said to Wang Gang: "Jingyan, why do you have to force me?"

Wang Gang said: "You have made Nihuang wait for twelve years, do you still want her to wait for a lifetime?"

Mei Changsu was stunned and turned to look at Princess Nihuang on the high platform.

Princess Nihuang was responding to Mei Changsu with a pair of loving eyes.

"Oh! You just let me win one game by chance. Am I going to be so lucky to meet someone I know in every subsequent game?"

Wang Gang said confidently: "Don't worry about the martial arts competition, I will arrange it myself."

Soon Mei Changsu understood what Wang Gang's arrangement was.

In the next competition, the opponent was a county king from a small country in the Western Regions. Mei Changsu stood in the ring and waited for a long time, but his opponent did not show up.

In the end, the referee could only declare that person to automatically forfeit, and Mei Changsu advanced without a fight.

Afterwards, Mei Changsu used his brothers from the Jiangzuo League to investigate and found out that his opponent had slept in and missed the duel time.

As for why he slept in on such an important day and slept for twelve hours at a time.

All I can say is that the drug in Prince Mu’s Mansion is really effective.

Mei Changsu's opponent in the third match was a master from Da Chu. I heard he was the son of the Minister of War of Da Chu. He was extremely skilled in martial arts and attached great importance to martial arts competitions. He prepared for the battle one day in advance, and even the drinking water was prepared by someone.

As a result, the man was ambushed by a group of robbers on his way to the ring. Not only did they steal all his property, they also knocked him unconscious, stripped him naked and threw him into an alley.

When he woke up, he didn't miss the time for the martial arts competition, but he was so embarrassed that he no longer dared to stay in Jinling, let alone participate in the martial arts competition.

Mei Changsu won three games in a row without a fight, which quickly attracted the attention of interested people.

During the fourth game, not only King Yu came over personally, but also the prince sent Xie Yu over to watch the game.

Mei Changsu stood on the ring and saw all the big shots in the audience. He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. He was completely pushed to the top by Wang Gang and became the focus of Jinling.

The faces of King Yu and Xie Yu in the audience were a little ugly.

They had all planned to recruit Mei Changsu, but they didn't expect that Wang Gang would take the lead and drag them all into Prince Jing's Mansion.

If Mei Changsu marries Princess Nihuang again, not only the Jiangzuo Alliance, but also the power of Prince Mu's Palace will inevitably be directed towards Prince Jing.

In this way, Prince Jing's power, whether in court or in opposition, would be evenly matched with that of Prince Edward and Prince Yu.

"His Royal Highness Prince Yu, do you also want to follow Prince Jing's example and participate in Princess Nihuang's competition to recruit a bride?" Xie Yu stood aside and deliberately said sarcastic remarks to Prince Yu.

"I already have a princess who does not meet the requirements for marriage. However, Mr. Xie's eldest son, Xiao Jingrui, has also applied. Do you also want Princess Nihuang to be your daughter-in-law?" Prince Yu said with a fake smile.

"That kid Jing Rui is just playing for fun. Everyone in the world doesn't know that His Highness Prince Jing is brave enough that no one can match him. Even Commander Meng bluntly said that he is no match for him." Xie Yu said with a gloomy face:
  "Now that there is another leader of the Jiangzuo Alliance, Mei Changsu, my son Jingrui is destined to lose."

King Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "That's not even possible. Look at Mei Changsu, who has defeated his opponent for three consecutive rounds without even making a single move. Maybe Jingrui also has such good luck."

Mei Changsu's opponent on the Yu Dynasty Arena looked at him and made a secret gesture.

Mei Changsu's opponent this round is Wu Yilun, who is the master sent by King Yu to compete.

If Mei Changsu was willing to join Prince Yu's Mansion, Prince Yu would not be unable to grow up. Unfortunately, there has been no news about Mei Changsu since he moved into Prince Jing's Mansion, which made Prince Yu even more jealous.

Wu Yilun received the signal from King Yu, concentrated on raising his inner strength, and was about to make a move to knock Mei Changsu off the ring, break more than a dozen of his bones, and make King Yu vent his anger.

At this moment, Wu Yilun's expression suddenly condensed, as if his inner strength had gone out of control, his legs went weak and he knelt down directly to Mei Changsu.

Mei Changsu said in surprise: "Brother, why do you give such a great gift?"

Wu Yilun's eyes widened, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously, and his saliva flowed uncontrollably, looking like he was having a stroke.

The referee quickly walked to Wu Yilun, checked, and declared Mei Changsu the winner.

"Wu Yilun suddenly fell ill and was unable to compete. Su Zhe won."

Wu Yilun was quickly carried away, and then Mei Changsu saw Wang Gang nodded slightly to him in a hidden corner and put away a silver needle in his hand.

When Wu Yilun knelt down, Prince Yu's face became extremely ugly. It was only after he carried him back to Prince Yu's mansion and had a famous doctor examine him that he found out that Wu Yilun had been plotted against him.

Qin Banruo held up a silver needle and said to the king: "Your Majesty, Wu Yilun has a silver needle inserted into his body. It was this silver needle that allowed Mei Changsu to win without a fight."

"Damn Mei Changsu, damn Jamel Xiao, it must be him who secretly helped Mei Changsu win." Prince Yu said angrily.

Qin Banruo sighed and said: "Prince Jing's martial arts is really terrifying. He plotted against a master like Wu Yilun in full public view, but no one could detect it. I'm afraid no one will be Mei Changsu's opponent in Princess Nihuang's competition to recruit a bride."

King Yu said bitterly: "Prajna, no matter what method you use, I will destroy the marriage between Mei Changsu and Mu Nihuang!"

Qin Banruo shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, I do not recommend that you confront Prince Jing now."

Prince Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you think I am no match for Jamel Xiao?" (End of Chapter)
