The Three Emperors City, the Mansion of the Thirteenth Prince, and Ning Chen's return, the warm mansion in the past is now a different person.
When Shi Yu and Shi Qing left, the prince's mansion became empty, and the original laughter and laughter could no longer be heard.
The collapsed palace was rebuilt again, and the new hall was unfamiliar, so that people could not see a trace of the past.
Ning Chen walked into it, looked at the furnishings in the hall, and said nothing.
"His Royal Highness, the Ninth Prince asks to see you."
At this time, outside the palace, a guard came quickly and respectfully saluted.
Ning Chen turned around and nodded, "Please."
"Yes!"
The guard took the order, and immediately got up and left.
Not long after, in front of the palace, the figure of the ninth prince appeared, dressed in a gorgeous royal attire, with a smug look on his face that could not be concealed.
Seeing the person coming, Ning Chen walked out of the palace and saluted politely, "I have seen Brother Jiuhuang."
"The thirteenth brother is out."
Xuan Que stepped forward, raised his hand to support the former, and said, "You are the crown prince now, and the imperial brother can't afford your courtesy."
Ning Chen straightened up, looked at the ninth prince in front of him, and said calmly, "Brother, please have a chat in the hall."
Xuanque nodded and walked into the palace in front of him.
Ning Chen followed behind and entered the hall together.
The slightly cold hall is beautifully decorated. Compared with the past, it is a little more extravagant, which is more in line with the pomp of a royal prince.
"I'm in a hurry to come back. I won't be able to visit the Jiuhuang brother's mansion in the future, but let the Jiuhuangxiong go there in person. I'm really ashamed." Ning Chen looked at the person in front of him, and said with an apologetic expression.
"Thirteenth brother is too polite"
Xuan Que said with a smile, "The thirteenth brother was summoned by the two demon emperors to come back. Naturally, he has to meet the two demon emperors first. What, if the peace talks between the emperor and the Wu clan are successful, they should get a lot of rewards. Reward."
Ning Chen shook his head and said, "I don't dare to ask for a reward. I came back this time just to restore my life, and maybe I will leave soon."
"Oh?"
Xuan Que heard the words, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and said, "Why, the war in the north has subsided, and the other battlefields will not change much in a short period of time, why did the Thirteenth Brother leave?"
Ning Chen sighed softly and said, "The current peace is probably just a temporary illusion. I always have a feeling that this war will not end so soon."
"Thirteenth brother or a lot of worries."
Xuan Que frowned and said, "In the current situation, the Wutian Demon Clan has begun to turn the tide of the battle. Except for the Western Sanctuary who are still stubbornly resisting, the other four royal families are not enough to worry about."
"Maybe."
Ning Chen responded lightly and didn't say much about this issue. He looked outside the hall and said, "Brother Jiuhuang, Brother Sanhuang regained his freedom, is that what you did?"
Xuan Que stared and said, "Why did the thirteenth brother say this?"
"Just guessing." Ning Chen smiled lightly and said.
"Don't talk nonsense like that."
Xuanque had a displeased look on his face, and said, "Brother Sanhuang was rescued by Asura, and it has nothing to do with me, understand?"
"clear"
Ning Chen nodded and said apologetically, "It's the emperor's brother who talks too much."
Seeing the former admit his mistake, Xuan Que's face softened a little, and he looked at the person in front of him and said, "Thirteenth brother, you have been to the Western battlefield, and you have a better understanding of the situation there. When do you think the eldest brother will be able to return to the dynasty?"
"It's impossible to come back for at least three months." Ning Chen said solemnly, "The strength of the Western Sanctuary is beyond imagination, especially the lord of the sixth house, Shaluo and the lord of the third house, Roja, are amazing, unless The two Demon Sovereigns acted in person, otherwise, the Western Sanctuary would still be in turmoil in a short period of time.
Blockable. "
"The Sanctuary is so powerful?"
Xuan Que said in disbelief, "Long Zhong has already traveled from the southeast battlefield to the west, can't we reverse the battle situation there?"
"It's hard."
Ning Chen said solemnly, "No matter how strong Long Zhong is, at most, they can only contain one of the two palace masters in the third or sixth palace, and my clan still has no advantage."
Xuan Que was silent and made a mistake. He thought that Xuan Qing would be free and Xuan Zhen would return soon. He never thought that the war situation in the West would be so tense.
If Xuanzhen can't come back, who will restrain Xuanqing
he? It is absolutely impossible, the identity, status and power in the hands are too different.
Xuan Que raised his head and saw the old thirteen in front of him. After a while, his eyes narrowed. Perhaps, the old thirteen could.
The old thirteen is also the prince of the royal family. Even though the foundation of the royal family is still shallow, the old thirteen's success in the peace talks will definitely increase his prestige among the royal family. Clear balance.
Thinking of this, Xuan Que's expression became serious, and he said seriously, "Thirteenth brother, have you ever thought about what we will do after the three emperors regain their freedom?"
"Why did Brother Nine Emperor ask this question?"
Ning Chen said with a puzzled face, "Brother Jiuhuang should know that I have a lot of friendship with Brother Sanhuang, and we should be happy that Brother Sanhuang has recovered his freedom."
"The thirteenth brother thinks too simply. Today is different from the past, and the situation has changed too much." Xuan Que said solemnly, "Has the thirteenth brother ever thought that when the three emperors were grounded, not only did we not take action? Save each other, and when the Western Sanctuary invaded, the Thirteenth Brother and the First Emperor joined forces to fight against the Sanctuary. Regarding these matters, the Third Emperor Brother
There will be no doubts in my heart. After all, there are no permanent allies in the world, only permanent interests. "
"What do you mean by Brother Nine Emperor?"
Ning Chen frowned and said, "Brother Three Emperors will attack us?"
"Not yet, at least until the Third Emperor Brother completely controls the situation in the imperial city, he will not do it yet."
Xuanque said in a deep voice, "However, the intention to harm others is indispensable, and the intention to guard against others is indispensable. We should also make plans earlier."
Ning Chen was silent, thinking for a long time, then nodded and said, "Brother Jiuhuang reminded me well, but I thought it was too simple."
"The thirteenth brother can figure it out."
Xuan Que said in a condensed voice, "In a short period of time, if the eldest brother does not come back, Xuan Qing's power will soon recover, even better than before, although we can't oppose him outright, but we should be able to do it in secret. "
Ning Chen nodded, looked outside the hall, and said, "I originally thought that the eldest prince and the third prince would fight against each other. We could benefit from it and try our best to strengthen ourselves. I never thought that today, we still have to think about how to protect ourselves."
"The power is stronger than the person, the status is different, this is fate, we can only accept it."
Xuan Que sighed, "Okay, I can't stay here for too long, denying it will cause suspicion, so I'll leave first."
"Brother Jiuhuang, walk slowly." Ning Chen said.
Xuan Que nodded, and without saying any more, turned around and walked outside the hall.
Inside the palace, Ning Chen looked at the back of the former leaving, and his expression gradually turned cold.
People's hearts are full of faces and ever-changing. Xuanque uses Asura to release Xuanqing. It seems shrewd, but in fact it is extremely stupid.
However, the current situation is still acceptable to him. After all, the sooner the royal family's heritage is exposed, the earlier he will be able to take countermeasures.
Now that the Gandharva, Asura, and the Dragon Congregation have all awakened, the remaining five and eight tribes must not be far from awakening.
How should the four royal families deal with the current situation
In the depths of the ancestral land of Heaven and Demons, in front of the two ups and downs of the Demon King, a young girl-like figure was half-kneeling on the ground with a respectful expression.
"Gandalf, you have been following Old Thirteen these days, what suspicious behavior does he have?"
The Seven Luminaries Demon Sovereign opened his mouth and asked.
"No suspicious behavior was detected."
Gandalf replied respectfully, "From fighting against the twelve witch queens to negotiating with the witch clan, His Highness the Thirteenth has been doing his best, and the Demon Emperor should also be able to see that His Highness Thirteen still has old wounds that have not healed."
Hearing the words, the Seven Luminaries Demon Sovereign nodded lightly. After all, the old thirteen came from the human race, so he could never trust him.
"According to the performance of the old thirteen these days, this son should be credible." On the side, the Eight Desolate Demon Sovereign said in a condensed voice, "If this son has any intentions, yesterday, he would not have mentioned the inheritance of the Phoenix family in front of you and me. This is a taboo of my royal family, he does not need to take such a risk, after all, it is not good for him
, may also cause your anger. "
"Since you also think there is no problem with this child, then let's decide."
Seven Luminaries Demon Sovereign said sternly, "Xuanzhen will not be able to come back in a short period of time. Someone must contain Xuanqing. The old thirteen has an extraordinary identity and is indeed the best candidate."
"Um"
The Eight Desolate Demon Sovereign nodded and said, "The messenger."
"Subordinates are here."
Ahead, the messenger appeared and knelt down.
"Pass on my order and give the thirteenth prince Ning Chen the nine king beads. From now on, he will sit on an equal footing with the eldest prince and the third prince." The Eight Desolate Demon Emperor said solemnly.
When the messenger heard the words, his body shook violently. After a while, he recovered and bowed his head, "Yes!"
The next moment, in the hands of the Eight Desolate Demon Sovereigns, nine king beads filled with demonic energy manifested and flew forward.
The messenger raised his head and took the nine king beads, the waves in his heart were hard to suppress.
The imperial city is about to change.
For a long time, although the thirteenth prince was crowned the prince, everyone knew that the thirteenth prince had no chance of inheriting the throne.
One is because of the bloodline problem. The thirteenth prince was born in a human race. Even if he was in the bloodline of the demons, the impure bloodline was the biggest obstacle that prevented the thirteenth prince from gaining a firm foothold.
Another reason is that when the thirteenth prince was awarded the crown prince, there was one thing missing, and that was the Nine Kings Pearl.
There is nothing that can replace the real token that symbolizes the crown prince of the royal family. At the beginning, the Demon Emperor Kun Yi did not give this thing.
However, now that the thirteenth prince has been awarded the Nine Kings Pearl, everything will change.
The messenger left with a turbulent heart, and hurried towards the Three Emperors City.
He knew very well what kind of shock the imperial city was going to experience next, which was probably even more shocking than Asura's awakening.
In the mansion of the Thirteenth Prince, Ning Chen stood quietly in front of the palace, and did not leave the mansion for a whole day.
At this moment, the sky above the Three Sovereigns City was filled with demonic energy, and the messenger walked out, looked at the mansion of the Thirteenth Prince in front of him, and said, "The Thirteenth Prince listens to the seal." When the words fell, the whole city was surprised, and everyone's eyes were on They all looked at the sky, their faces puzzled, what happened
