At this time, only the father and daughter were left in the side hall. Mu Ningqiu's attitude was casual and somewhat coquettish.
Mu Jing also lost his majesty as a king, looked at his beloved daughter, and said angrily: "You girl, when will you be obedient? The more I don't let you do anything, you will do whatever you want. When you left Huanggu, let me No matter how you try to stop me, you still insist on going your own way, but now it’s a blessing in disguise that you have become a master and you are more courageous?”
"Father, my daughter is also concerned about state affairs."
Mu Ningqiu walked to Mu Jing's side, grabbed his hand and said coquettishly: "Besides, the two of them had such a lively fight just now, and my daughter was not exposed. This shows that my daughter was well hidden and no one found any trace of her. .”
"You still have the nerve to say it?"
Mu Jing glared at her: "If King Yun hadn't been attracted by Lu Li, he would have discovered you long ago. It's just that King Chu is restless. Do you really think Manager Liang doesn't know that you are hiding there secretly?" Are you watching the fun?"
"General Manager Liang treats his daughter best. Even if he discovers her, he will not complain."
Mu Ningqiu smiled and then said: "But my daughter really didn't expect that Lu Li could fight to a draw with King Yun and break his heart. Father, why don't you ask him about his adventures?"
"Why, are you interested in his adventures?"
As soon as Mu Ningqiu opened her mouth, Mu Jing understood what she meant, and said with a half-smile but not a smile: "In that case, my father will call that boy back and ask him where he got it from. The charm of heaven and humanity.”
"Father!"
Mu Ningqiu was startled and held Mu Jing's hand, "My daughter was just joking, father, please don't take it seriously."
"You." Mu Jing said helplessly: "You are so worried about him that you even want to test your father?"
Having seen through her thoughts, Mu Ningqiu blushed slightly, but she denied: "My daughter is not worried about him, she just thinks that he saved her daughter after all, and later brought him back to the Holy Kingdom and handed him over to King Yun. Here, he suffered a lot of hardships for no reason..."
"Okay, okay, your little thoughts are not clear to others. Don't you, the emperor, not know it?"
Mu Jing smiled and said: "If you really want him to enter the Nine Palaces, your first choice should be your aunt's Prince Yan's Palace. But you girl took advantage of the conflict between Prince Yun and her to send Lu Li between them, and used the sky to The crystal powder and the Bahuang Sword Manual lured King Yun into taking the bait, guaranteeing that he would drive Lu Li to Prince Yan's Mansion to die. This idea was indeed clever, but only the idiot King Yun couldn't see it. Believe it or not, that kid Lu Li should I have already guessed your method."
"That boy..."
Mu Ningqiu thought of the tricks Lu Li used to deceive her when he was in the Black Prison, and snorted: "With such a shameless character, he is naturally very smart."
"So, girl, if you care about him so much, why do you use these little tricks?"
Mu Jing glanced at Mu Ningqiu, trying to see something on her face.
However, Mu Ningqiu thought for a moment and then said: "Father, my daughter is not concerned about that shameless boy. It's just that he has now become the chief manager of my aunt's house. He is a great help to the Holy Kingdom. He is talented and strong enough to be alone." , so the daughter is worried that her father will force him away... "
Seeing that her expression was as usual, Mu Jing couldn't help but feel relieved, but at the same time he was a little tangled.
There is nothing abnormal about my daughter, but what about my sister
Thinking of Mu Hongxiu, Mu Jing had a headache.
A large part of Mu Ningqiu's character was learned from Mu Hongxiu. Compared to Mu Hongxiu, Mu Ningqiu was just like an obedient little girl.
"Father, you look so bad. Is it because you haven't recovered from your injuries?"
Halfway through, Mu Ningqiu noticed that Mu Jing's face was not very good-looking, and immediately asked with concern.
Mu Jing coughed dryly and shook his head: "Father, it's okay. You can go down and rest first. I'll see your aunt later and tell her something for me... Let her think about it carefully."
After hearing this, Mu Ningqiu remembered these words in her heart, and then said, "My daughter remembers it."
"Well, go ahead." Mu Jing smiled.
After Mu Ningqiu left the side hall, she showed a thoughtful expression.
"Think carefully? Has my aunt made any big mistakes during this time?"
Mu Ningqiu's thoughtful thoughts immediately revealed many profound meanings from what she just said.
If nothing had happened, my father would never have used such a hesitant tone.
But according to Mu Ningqiu's understanding, the most earth-shattering act of her aunt during this period was to kill the envoys of the Demon Kingdom in the imperial city, beat to death the once-famous ancient general of the Demon Kingdom, and then went to the Imperial City with Dong Ao to A battle that tore the sky apart.
Although the martial arts was abolished in the end, that battle was the most astonishing master battle in recent years. The power that the two finally burst out has completely surpassed the master level, and has completely entered the realm of heaven and man.
But even so, my father didn't take it to heart.
Apart from this matter, Mu Ningqiu could not think of anything else that her father should consider in such a cautious tone, telling her aunt.
"Hmm... I'll find out later when I go to Prince Yan's Mansion to investigate."
Mu Ningqiu suppressed her thoughts for the time being and returned to her bedroom.
…
There are no eternal secrets in the palace.
Even though only a few people could see what happened in the side hall, after King Yun and King Chu returned to their homes, several versions of the battle in the main hall had been spread, but even if the details were wrong, the final The result was that King Yun's hard work, which he had cultivated for decades, was broken. The person who broke his heart was none other than Lu Li, the young manager of the Yan Palace who had recently become famous.
As soon as this news spread, the aristocratic families in the imperial capital couldn't believe it. However, after repeated verifications, especially the furious performance of King Yun after returning to the palace, it was proved that the matter was true.
As a result, the entire elite circle in the imperial capital was dumbfounded.
Isn't this too aggressive
An immortal warrior actually broke King Yun's heart
Even the strong masters who are also masters dare not say that they can break the heart of King Yun that he has gained through years of hard work in the process of fighting, let alone a young man who is in the immortal realm.
Although judging from Lu Li's age, being able to cultivate in the Immortal Realm is considered a genius, but genius is a genius, and the gap between Immortal and Mingyou cannot be leveled by the word genius.
In an instant, all the families in the imperial capital were curious about what happened in the side hall. Some people were still doubting the authenticity of this matter, thinking that it was probably Liang Yuan or even His Majesty who taught King Yun a lesson and then gave Lu Li a reputation. It gave Prince Yan's house a bad breath.
But such voices are still in the minority.
Rather than Liang Yuan or His Majesty taking action to punish King Yun, they would rather believe that Lu Li had something special about him.
Because there has never been any precedent for this kind of thing, and if His Majesty takes action, King Yun will never be allowed to leave the palace alive. From now on, the nine kings of the Holy Kingdom will always lose one King Yun.
Therefore, when the news spread throughout the imperial capital, the threshold of Prince Yan's Mansion was almost breached.
When Ge Xinyue knew the reason why these people came to the door, a trace of surprise appeared on her pretty face.
After sending all the people who came to the door away, Ge Xinyue told Mu Hongxiu about the incident. Mu Hongxiu was stunned for a moment, and then asked strangely: "Where is Lu Li?"
"He did not return directly to the palace. After leaving the palace, he went to Wuzong."
Ge Xinyue was very familiar with Lu Li's movements. At this time, Lu Li must have gone to Wuzong to take Ling'er back to his home.
"He has caused such a big fuss, but he will stay away for a while." Mu Hongxiu raised the corners of her lips, and then asked: "Is the news true?"
"I have sent people to investigate." Ge Xinyue knew that this matter was not trivial, so she also sent out the few remaining confidants in the palace to find out whether the matter was true or false.
While he was talking, a female guard had returned and was waiting outside the door.
Ge Xinyue and Mu Hongxiu's eyes met. Mu Hongxiu nodded, and Ge Xinyue called the female guard in.
As soon as she entered the door, the female guard's face turned red and she stuttered: "I've met... His Highness, I've met... Mr. Ge."
"How is the investigation going?" Ge Xinyue asked.
The female guard calmed down her breath and said in a somewhat excited tone: "My subordinates have done some investigating and this matter... should be true."
"Should?" Ge Xinyue frowned slightly.
The female guard immediately reacted and vowed: "No, it shouldn't be, this must be true!"
