C16 In the King's Tomb(last Part)

Other than the bleak autumn wind, the only thing in the world that can make people feel good is probably the rain. At this time, Southern Guarding Prince was also holding a wine glass, looking at the drizzling rain outside the window, sighing continuously. A drop of hot tears that shouldn't belong to an emperor's home hung from the corner of his eye.

The inner servant reported, "Your Highness, Eunuch Hsiao requests an audience. "

"Please!" Southern Guarding Prince quietly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. He tidied his clothes and greeted Duke Xiao with justice. " A few days ago, someone gave me a pot of Hundred Flower Dew, so I didn't dare to enjoy it alone, so I invited my father-in-law over to drink with me. "

"Mm!" Eunuch Hsiao nodded and sat on the main seat. He raised his glass and downed it in one gulp, then closed his eyes to enjoy the taste of the wine. It was not until Southern Guarding Prince waved his hand to the left and right that he opened his mouth and said: "You didn't invite me here just to drink, did you? It's not as simple as that, right?"

Southern Guarding Prince hesitated for a while before he mustered up his courage and said, "Don't you think that Yuan, whom we captured, looks like a person?"

Eunuch Hsiao's eyes widened after Southern Guarding Prince's reminder. He said with a trembling voice, Don't you think Yuan looks like a person? "You said he looks like. . . "

"Same!"

The two of them shouted out the names buried deep in their hearts at the same time.

Eunuch Hsiao's face turned pale instantly, and his voice trembled. "You. . . Are you confident?"

Southern Guarding Prince rubbed his hands and said, "I am seventy percent sure. I still need to continue to ask for confirmation. "

"Ask for confirmation as soon as possible. . . " Eunuch Hsiao could not sit still anymore. He stood up and paced back and forth and said, "I am not going anywhere. I will wait here for you. "

"Gonggong, please be patient. Sit down and have a cup of wine first. "

Southern Guarding Prince and Eunuch Hsiao sat down together. They drank without saying a word until their eyes were red with alcohol and tears. A maid pushed the door open and walked in. She knelt down and knelt down. "Greetings, Your Highness, greetings, father-in-law!"

Southern Guarding Prince took a few steps forward and said: "Get up and reply. "

"When I was bathing Young Master Yuan, I found that there were three green fish scales under his left ribs. "

"Good. . . Good. . . Good! Hahaha. . . " Southern Guarding Prince suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. Tears rolled down his face like crazy.

"Wuwuwuwu. . . Wuwuwu. . . Wuwuwu! Wuwuwu! . . . "Eunuch Hsiao covered his face and cried. Tears flowed down his face. After crying, he laughed at the sky. " He is Yuan-er. He is really Yuan-er. . . "

After a long while, Southern Guarding Prince wiped away his tears. He pointed at the center of the maid's brows. The poor maid fell to the ground with a thud and died.

"Someone carry her down!" Southern Guarding Prince ordered his men to drag the body away without any pity. He then sat beside Eunuch Hsiao, drank three big glasses of wine, and said, "Eunuch, how do you think Lu Changkong should be dealt with?"

I have sent someone to investigate Lu Changkong's background. Apart from finding out that he is a traitor of Mao Mountain," said Xiao Gongping. Nothing. The Three Flags Town written in his hometown had long been massacred. Not a single person was left alive. Even if he wanted to investigate, there was no way he could. The best way to deal with him was to silence him. However, Yuan-er has deep feelings for him. Once he finds out the truth in the future, he'll probably hate us for the rest of his life. "

" We can't kill Lu Changkong! " Zhennan Wang said, "I want to absorb him into the Dragon Protection Squad. "

"Him?" Xiao Gongping said, "Do you think it's wise to absorb an unknown person into the Dragon Protection Squad?"

"Do you still remember that Loose Cultivator Heaven Glimpse?"

"The fortune teller who saved your life and joined your sect? Didn't he die?"

" Not only did I save his life, I also helped him take revenge for his family. " In return, he used his own body and life to divine three divinations for me One of the divinations has already come true "

Eunuch Hsiao said in surprise. "Which divination?"

"He calculated that one day sixteen years later, at the cost of his own eyes. I will meet with General Xing of the revival of Great Ming in the King Sealing Tomb. " Southern Guarding Prince said confidently, "I waited bitterly in the tomb for a year. . . Cough. . . Today will be a year. His divination also stopped working. However, Lu Changkong appeared on this day. I think Lu Changkong is the general he was talking about. "

"Him?" Eunuch Hsiao said with disdain, "A man who just formed his Golden Core will be the General who will revive the Great Ming? I don't think those practitioners of the Jianghu can be trusted so easily. "

Southern Guarding Prince smiled and said, "Didn't he also let father-in-law wait for sixteen years in the king's tomb? Didn't it come true today? And the Dragon Emperor Great Formation that he set up. In these sixteen years, apart from in front of Yuan-er, did it fail?"

" He does have some skills, especially that Dragon Emperor Great Array that can kill everyone under the heavens and not attack the imperial bloodline alone. It is even more inconceivable. However, I still don't believe that Lu Changkong is a General Star. "

"Haha. . . " Southern Guarding Prince laughed and said, "Even if he isn't a General Star, that's fine. However, Gonggong had said it before. Lu Changkong can't be killed. Since he can't be killed, what's the big deal of arranging an idle job for him in the Imperial Court? "

"Alright! As you wish!"

When Southern Guarding Prince said this, Eunuch Hsiao could not refute anymore. He said coldly, "But you also have to promise me one thing. "

"Eunuch, just say it. "

"I want to kill that bastard who injured Yuan-er. " Eunuch Hsiao gritted his teeth and said, "It was not easy for us to find Yuan-er, and our heart ached for him. Yet, that bastard was injured to such an extent. If I don't kill him, I won't be able to dispel the hatred in my heart. "

"Alright!" Southern Guarding Prince said coldly. "Although he is my right-hand man, he has hurt Yuan-er. I cannot tolerate him. I will capture him and hand him over to father-in-law to deal with. "

"Mm!" When Eunuch Hsiao saw Southern Guarding Prince agree, his anger had mostly dissipated. In the blink of an eye, he felt troubled again. "Tell me, how should I go see Yuan-er?"

"About that. . . " Southern Guarding Prince also felt it was hard to say. "We can talk about this later. Maybe I really need Lu Changkong's help. "

A person who spent most of his life in the palace, always scheming against others, would actually worry about how to face a teenager. However, it wouldn't be hard for them to be smart for a long time. In just a few days, they had established a relationship with Yuan. However, Yuan kept arguing about wanting to see Lu Changkong, which made the two men jealous.

Southern Guarding Prince also knew that as long as Yuan didn't see Lu Changkong, Yuan wouldn't be able to truly trust the two of them. After making sufficient preparations, he and Eunuch Hsiao personally invited Lu Changkong over.

Lu Changkong was called a prisoner. In fact, he lived a much more comfortable life than ordinary people. Apart from being restricted from freedom, he lived a life of luxury every day. This servant served him and lived a life of luxury.

Lu Changkong, who had slept till late in the morning, had just finished his "breakfast. " Southern Guarding Prince stood in front of him.

Southern Guarding Prince walked past the servants who were kneeling on the floor. The guard walked to Lu Changkong and greeted him with a smile. "Mr. Lu was frightened. Don't worry, I will prepare a feast for you. Mr. Lu, please come in and have a chat. "

As soon as Southern Guarding Prince finished his words, the servant who was kneeling on the ground broke out in cold sweat. She thought to herself that there was not the slightest bit of disrespect from Lu Changkong in recent days. Only then did she feel slightly relieved.

Lu Changkong cast a sideway glance at Southern Guarding Prince and said bluntly: "May I know how to address you?"

"Master. . . "

Lu Changkong heard the word 'master' and saw Yuan walking out from behind Southern Guarding Prince. His face turned cold, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. He said in a cold voice, Master. . . " Yuan, are you alright?"

"I'm fine. His Royal Highness and father-in-law are very good to me. . . " Yuan took a few steps to Lu Changkong's side, pulled his arm and said tenderly: "How are you? Don't be so fierce to the prince. He is very good. "

Lu Changkong felt helpless about his disciple's "betrayal. "

Southern Guarding Prince, the ambitious man in his life, was very satisfied with Yuan's evaluation of him. He showed a kind smile at the corner of his mouth. He looked at Yuan with love and indulgence in his eyes.

Lu Changkong walked to the bottom of the tomb under Southern Guarding Prince's generous invitation. Along the way, Yuan roughly explained the identities of the two people. Lu Changkong had expected that these two men's identities wouldn't be simple, but he didn't expect them to be so shocking. In just a short period of time, They had already passed through four formations and entered the hall at the bottom of the tomb. A few steps seemed simple, but in fact, Lu Changkong had no idea how he walked into the great tomb. He couldn't help but feel shocked.

After the guests and guests were seated, maids had already served fragrant tea. Lu Changkong did not stand on ceremony either. He picked up the teacup and drank it lightly. "Your Royal Highness, father-in-law won't specially treat me to tea, right?"

Southern Guarding Prince smiled and said, "Mr. Lu is really quick to speak. Then I will get straight to the point. I want to ask who holds the power of Great Ming in Mr. Lu's hands? "

Lu Changkong was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, "Now it is in the hands of the four major sects. It is still unknown who will have the power in the future. "

"Mr. Lu is really smart!" Eunuch Hsiao praised him, then continued drinking tea and did not say anything.

"There is no land under the heavens, no land under the heavens, no land under the heavens, no land under the heavens, no land under the heavens, no land under the heavens! As a descendant of the Zhu Family, how could I watch my Great Ming's territory be controlled by cultivators? Therefore, the Zhu family's ancestors went through all kinds of hardships to find the cultivation secret manuals and set up the Great Ming's Dragon Protection Squad, which was also known as the East and West factory. It was a pity that the Dragon Protection Squad's wings were not fully developed, so they could not rejuvenate the imperial power, sigh - "

Southern Guarding Prince suddenly sighed, as if the many hardships in the process of rejuvenating the imperial family were hard to explain to others.

Eunuch Hsiao continued, "For many years, Your Royal Highness has taken in many scholars and made friends with experts. It is for the Imperial Family to regain control of the Great Ming. "

Lu Changkong nodded and said: "Your Royal Highness has done your best for the country. I admire you very much. "

Southern Guarding Prince did not miss the opportunity and said, "I wonder if Mr. Lu can lower himself to join the Dragon Protection Squad. In the future, the prestige of the Great Ming will be restored. Mr. Lu will definitely be a meritorious elder. "

Southern Guarding Prince saw that Lu Changkong was only lowering his head to drink tea and did not say anything. He stood up and said: "If Mr. Lu is still thinking about the misunderstanding a few days ago, I will now solemnly apologize to mister. "

Lu Changkong immediately laughed and said, "Prince Jin Zhi and Yu Ye actually apologized to me for being rude. It really makes me feel flattered. Only now do I know why Jing Ke would work so hard for the Crown Prince Pill. The art of the Emperor is comparable to a million heroes! "

Of course, Southern Guarding Prince could hear the sarcasm in his words, but he still said without changing his expression, "Although the art of the emperor is more powerful than a million soldiers, it cannot stop a flying sword in the hands of a Cultivator! I have to make it clear that I have no intention of controlling you, sir. Whether you are willing to lower yourself to the royal family or not, I am willing to be friends with you. "

Lu Changkong thought to himself, "Amazing! Southern Guarding Prince was indeed worthy of being a member of the royal family. He was the descendant of Zhu Yuanzhang. His ability to win over people's hearts was incomparable to ordinary people. Since I want to carefully cultivate, rather than hiding everywhere, I might as well hide in the Dragon Protection Squad. No matter how crazy the people of Maoshan Sect are, they wouldn't dare to barge into the Royal Guards and capture people! "

Thinking of this, Lu Changkong nodded and said: "Your Royal Highness probably knows about some personal grudges between me and the Maoshan Sect. I also swore to wipe out Mao Mountain. However, I am not arrogant enough to think that I can wipe out a sect by myself. Being able to rely on a big tree is definitely something I wish for, but. . . The first thing I need to know is whether this tree is big enough! "

"Mr. Lu is really quick to speak!" Southern Guarding Prince laughed and said, "I can guarantee that Mr. Lu's choice is not wrong. "

Lu Changkong knew how to scheme. He was definitely not a match for these two old foxes. He might as well tell them his purpose and gain their trust. Sure enough, Southern Guarding Prince felt that although Lu Changkong appeared to be unruly and stubborn on the surface, he was actually very easy to control. He answered without thinking.

Lu Changkong stood up and said, "Then Lu Changkong will listen to the prince's arrangements. "

Southern Guarding Prince turned his head and said, "Eunuch Hsiao, what position do you think is suitable for Mr. Lu?"

Eunuch Hsiao casually replied, "If Mr. Lu does not feel that it is beneath him, then. . . I wonder if he is satisfied with the position of Royal Guardian's commander?" He had never thought highly of Lu Changkong, so he had arranged for the Royal Guardian, which had lost over 80% of its members during the decisive battle a hundred years ago, to be arranged for him. The structure of the Royal Guardian had almost been broken up.

Lu Changkong did not decline and cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you, Gonggong!"

"Lord Lu, you are welcome!" Zhennan Wang said, "I like Lord Lu's disciple very much. I wonder if Sir can cut off his love and let me be his disciple?"

"No!" Lu Changkong was furious after hearing that. "Since I have decided to serve the Dragon Protection Squad, I will not have any second thoughts. If Your Highness doesn't trust me, you can kill me right now to silence me. You won't even be able to use my disciple as a hostage!"

Southern Guarding Prince and Eunuch Hsiao were both shocked. Eunuch Hsiao felt a little guilty. "If I had known that he was so protective of Yuan-er, I wouldn't have given him such a powerless official position. Forget it. I'll try to satisfy his conditions in the future! "

"I definitely didn't mean that!" Southern Guarding Prince said seriously, "I, Zhu Heng, can swear here that if I detain Yuan-er as a hostage, or Yuan-er suffer even the slightest grievance in my place, then I, Zhu Heng, will be destroyed in body and spirit, forever unable to reincarnate. "

Lu Changkong stared blankly for a long time, then stood up and said: "I was rude, please forgive me, Your Highness. "

"No matter, no matter. Daoist Lord Lu's true nature. I admire him very much. " Zhennan Wang said, "Lord Lu first invite the people inside to a banquet. After Yuan-er formally gives you the courtesy of apprenticeship and let you rest assured, how about you take over the post?"

"We will listen to the arrangements of the prince!"

"Lord Lu, please!"

The Crown Prince said, "Your Highness, Gonggong, please!"

The few of them gave way to each other and officially set the date of Lu Changkong's appointment. Could he be the general who would revive the Great Ming?
