C576 The First Prince of Guyang Jing Jingxuan
"The Cinnabarus is a red plant of five stars, and it is also the flag of my Gu Yang. But many people do not know why the Cinnabarus is red, because it is dyed red with blood, and so is the flag of my Gu Yang, and the rise and rise of a country is made of the flesh and blood of countless people..."
This was what the First Prince of Gu Yang, Jing Jingxuan, had told Lee Zhuohua when he first came to Gu Yang. When Lee Zhuohua heard this, he knew that the First Prince had great ambitions and wanted to control the entire Gu Yang, but in the end, the other party was still a prince. On top of that, there was Jing Canghai who was the Lord of Gu Yang, and there was also a brother like Jing Bolin, who was overflowing with talent. Therefore, even if he had ambitions, it would be very difficult for him to display them.
And now, here he was, following Gongyan, and seeing this high-spirited First Prince of Gu Yang, his mind automatically recalled what the other party had said.
That's right, the person who was pacing over was none other than the First Prince of Gu Yang, Jing Jingxuan.
"So it's Senior Gongyan." Jing Jingxuan was still as calm as Lee Zhuohua's memories. When he saw Gongyan, he spoke up, but there was an unusual smile on his face, which made people uncomfortable.
"Your... Your Highness." Gongyan had yet to react from the identity of the person who had arrived. He never thought that the person who had arrived would be a direct descendant of the Gu Yang Imperial Family.
One had to know that Gongyan was now an Inhuman, and the people who met him would naturally stand on his side. Could it be that Jing Jingxuan was also an Inhuman now?
Gongyan bowed to Jing Jingxuan and carefully observed him, wanting to see if the other party was really an Inhuman.
However, when Jing Jingxuan faced Gongyan's puzzled gaze, the smile on the corner of her mouth became even stranger.
"I'm only in a cooperative relationship with the person behind you. I'm not so stupid as to become one of you." Jing Jingxuan said lightly, denying Gongyan's guess.
But Gongyan was even more confused by the other party's explanation. If it wasn't the Inhumans who wanted to cooperate with them, didn't the other party know how much harm the Inhumans could do to Gu Yang?
Gongyan, who couldn't figure it out, naturally wouldn't ask. His purpose for coming here today was to take what the Lord had asked him to take from the contact. Now that the contact had appeared, he still had to focus on completing his mission.
...
Lee Zhuohua, who was hiding in the dark, was also very puzzled when he heard the conversation between the two of them.
"The person behind the scenes? Cooperation relationship? What's going on?" Lee Zhuohua could smell a strange scent. Although he did not know what kind of secret there was between Jing Bolin and Gongyan, and he also did not know who the person behind them was, he had a faint feeling that there must be a shocking secret behind it. He was patient, carefully hiding, and continued to watch quietly.
"I wonder if Your Highness, has my master brought what he needs?" Gongyan carefully looked at Jing Jingxuan and asked.
"Don't worry. I will naturally not lie to you about what I promised you." Jing Jingxuan retracted his gaze and said in a low voice.
After that, he took out a small wooden box from his pocket and threw it to Gongyan without hesitation.
When Gongyan saw Dung Tianzuo throw something over so casually, he hurriedly caught it - although he didn't know what it was, he knew that Dung Tianzuo seemed to care about what was inside and didn't dare to be careless.
"Swish." Gongyan, who caught the box, let out a sigh of relief. Luckily, it did not fall to the ground.
"Haha, I have already given you the item. I hope that your master will do what he promised me as well, or else ..." Jing Jingxuan saw that Gongyan had caught the box and chuckled as he spoke. His words were vague, but everyone could hear the threat behind them.
"Since my lord has made a promise to you, he won't go back on it." Gongyan didn't know what Dung Tianzuo had promised him, but he still said so.
"That's good. Hurry up and go back after taking the things. I think he can't wait any longer." Jing Jingxuan nodded when she heard Gongyan's words and urged him to leave.
"Alright." Gongyan did not say anything more. After putting away the box, he walked out.
Jing Jingxuan watched Gongyan's back as he left. Her eyes narrowed and her face was a little cold.
"Hmph, the throne is mine, and so is Gu Yang. Imperial brother, I want to see how you can compete with me." Jing Bolin thought to himself and also left alone.
After the two of them left, Lee Zhuohua, who was hiding in the dark, started to fantasize about the conversation between the two of them.
"Master? Isn't Gongyan a consecrate of the Wu Hou Palace? His master was Marquis Ling Wu? No, judging from the way they talk to each other, it doesn't seem to be that simple. What kind of secret is there between Gongyan and the First Prince?" Lee Zhuohua's heart suddenly felt as if there was a layer of fog in front of him, making him unable to see the truth clearly, but he also faintly felt that the fog was extremely thin. As long as he took one more step forward, he would be able to see it clearly.
"Follow Gongyan and see what kind of secret he has on him." Lee Zhuohua shook his head, unable to think of anything, so he planned to continue following Gongyan, wanting to understand everything.
Thinking of this, Lee Zhuohua also moved his body and chased after the direction Gongyan had left.
...
After Gongyan came out, he rushed all the way out of the Ancient Yang Imperial Palace. Lee Zhuohua also hid his aura and followed along.
After Lee Zhuohua left, the guards followed the commander back to the border.
"Strange, there's no assassin. What was that sound just now?" After the leader led his men to investigate, he found that there were no assassins at all, so he could only give up, but he still felt it was strange.
He didn't know that this was all Lee Zhuohua's plan to lure the tiger out of the mountain, but now that Lee Zhuohua had already followed Gongyan out of the palace, they naturally wouldn't know that someone had entered the cave just now.
...
Lee Zhuohua followed Gongyan out of the Ancient Yang Imperial Palace all the way. He wanted to find out what kind of secret Gongyan had on him. He had a nagging feeling that this secret seemed to have something to do with an extremely important matter.
"Selling buns, big meat buns with thin skin..."
The moment they arrived outside of the Ancient Yang Imperial Palace, the sounds of hawking rang out again. Lee Zhuohua followed Gongyan and arrived at the streets of Gu Yang. It was currently noon, so the Ancient Sun City was bustling with noise and excitement.
When he reached the street, Gongyan slowed down his pace. He looked around and saw that no one was following him, so he continued to walk and disappeared into the crowd.
"Where is he going?" Lee Zhuohua quietly followed behind Gongyan, and discovered that the other party was not walking in the direction of the Wu Hou Palace, but was instead following the crowd towards the outskirts of Ancient Sun City. This made him frown.
However, Lee Zhuohua did not think too much about it. Following the crowd, he followed closely behind Gongyan. He restrained his aura, so Gongyan was unable to sense his existence.
It was strange that when Gongyan came to the street, he wandered around as if he had no purpose, and even asked a few hawkers about the price. Such behavior seemed very normal to most people.
But Lee Zhuohua knew that perhaps the other party was hiding his real location. He was not in a hurry, and just followed Gongyan around the Ancient Sun City for half a day.
Finally, when the sun was at noon and the sun was setting in the west, Gongyan stopped wandering around and walked straight towards the outskirts of Ancient Sun City.
"He's finally willing to leave." Lee Zhuohua noticed Gongyan's movements and continued to follow him.
Along the way, Lee Zhuohua followed Gongyan to the outskirts. This was the dilapidated place of Ancient Sun City, and very few people would come here.
The afterglow of the evening illuminated this place, reflecting a strange atmosphere.
Gongyan walked quickly through the forest of weeds and arrived at a dilapidated temple. He walked straight inside.
Lee Zhuohua, who had been following behind, saw the ruined temple and felt a sense of danger in his heart. He felt that there was an extremely uncomfortable aura lingering in the ruined temple.
"This is..."
