With the relationship between Su Mu and Su Tong already open, Qin Wudi once again asked the emperor for marriage. If it were in normal conditions, of course this would not have any good results.
After all, as an imperial monarch, he naturally needs to care about his face.
But the crux of the problem lies in the fact that Su Mu and Su Tong's goals now happen to be contrary to the will of the imperial monarch, and the imperial monarch is worried that he has no means to restrict them.
And if Qin Wudi's begging for marriage was truly presented to the emperor.
In terms of the imperial emperor's current thinking, he paid much attention to the Dao Qinqin message, probably far more than ordinary people imagined.
"So, Su Mu, you must be the leader of this exchange meeting as you said. You can't give Qin Wudi any opportunity to speak. As long as you can't do this, no matter how much we work in secret, After all, he couldn't keep up with the golden words of the emperor's father."
When the second prince Su Tan said this, he gently put a character secret report on the several cases in front of him, and then continued:
"I can provide you with all the information and match records about Qin Wudi. But what you must assure me is that after defeating Qin Wudi, you must immediately return to the Federation with the mission. Even before I really get that position. Before, Su Can had better not return without authorization."
"Otherwise... the countless sharp edges in the empire will still make our brothers and sisters not so good to see each other!"
Until this moment, Su Mu also understood the real intention of the second prince.
The message that Qin Wudi tried to ask Emperor Longtuo for a kiss, although it did have a strong uncertainty, but in fact, for Su Mu, who had decided to win the championship, it was just an expected confrontation.
At this moment, the second prince Su Tan's request was obviously to use the message of betraying Qin Wudi to coerce Su Mu and Su Tong into the undecided empire of Dabao.
"Brother emperor’s good intentions, we understand. As for what you asked for not to participate in the seizure of the protagonist, in fact, even if you don’t say it, that is also our two dreams. As for the information in your hand, the emperor obviously did not really understand To... the most peak duel is not determined by a few words!"
At this moment, Su Tong, although he still made the guarantee that the second prince needed.
But regarding the information that the second prince tried to threaten, Su Tong didn't even look at it, so he stood up gently, and silently put on a cloak to stop the wind and snow.
Then, along with Su Mu, he decisively said goodbye to the second prince and finally did not accept the "goodwill" from the second prince.
…
"Brother Erhuang is still too small. Even if he understands in his heart, we have absolutely no intention of encroaching on the imperial throne. But he still tries to use his best means to control people's hearts with both grace and power."
After leaving the Linzhongyuan, Su Mu did not rush back to the martial arts field.
Anyway, the next few competitions today were not that important. Su Mu simply accompanied Su Tong and strolled casually in Qinghua Academy under Qin Dong's follow.
"And the person who really deserves our vigilance is actually Yang Zimu, who is now joining the brother of the Second Emperor. Although in terms of personal strength, Yang Zimu is certainly not Qin Wudi's opponent; in terms of personal influence, Yang Zimu is even worse than you. The degree of federation."
"But the real key is that the empire's commerce is not like a federation, and it is completely left to the market to adjust itself. Instead, several big families that control the household department jointly formed the empire's business form. And Yang Zimu and other companies The Yang family of birth is also the first merchant of the empire since ancient times."
When Su Tong said this, there happened to be a snow-white squirrel grazing in the snow, and suddenly ran in front of Su and Mu.
Then another round figure jumped directly out of Su Tong's arms, and it was like an ordinary chipmunk, chasing the squirrel and playing.
The Illusory Demon Ball also had an appearance like an ordinary animal.
Now it completely disguised itself as a small animal without any special features, happily mixed into the group of low-level creatures, enjoying the fun of teasing them.
"I am afraid that Yang Zimu now has the same mentality as the ball. The battle of the empire is obviously not that important to the everlasting first business. After all, no matter which emperor comes to power, it is inevitable. You must rely on the strength of the Yang family to better rule the empire."
"But now Yang Zimu still took the initiative to intervene without hesitation. This makes me wonder... Yang Zimu's true purpose is to help Brother Second Emperor ascend the throne, or is there any greater ambition hidden? "
…
However, just as Su Tong's eyebrows were twisting and thinking, a slightly biting cold wind suddenly blew, but Su Tong, who had no cultivation at all, was immediately affected by the wind and snow.
Su Mu, who saw this, didn't even think about it, and silently took Su Tong's hands.
Then, bursts of warm currents that were transformed with the essence of the heart were injected into Su Tong's body little by little.
In a moment, Su Tong's originally slightly cold face, no matter whether it was because of warmth or shyness, immediately became ruddy and alive.
Fortunately, Su Tong himself is undoubtedly the real master of grasping people's hearts.
In order to prevent Su Mu from noticing his own abnormality, Su Tong even rushed before Su Mu discovered his abnormality, and he spoke again:
"As for what they call Qin Wudi, he was originally the eldest son of the Qin family, and he has been placed in infinite expectations since he was a child. Coupled with the fighting skills at the small print stage, Qin Wudi actually accepts it several times faster than ordinary people. He was also given the arrogant name of'Qin Wudi' under the approval of the family elders."
"However, no one would have thought that Qin Wudi until he was fourteen years old, and under the guidance of various powerful knights. Not only did he not integrate any regular fighting skills, even the level of Qi was stagnant. The pinnacle of the small print level. In the next five or six years, there has been no more diligence."
"So much so that in the mouths of others, the original arrogant'Qin Wudi' has gradually been called the ridiculous'Qin Wuneng'. Even Qin Wudi, who has lost the room for growth, is gradually being taken by the family. Marginalized, and finally completely forgotten in everyone’s memory."
Su Tong said this, but Su Mu was already horrified inexplicably.
He was called a genius since he was a child, and then for some reason, he couldn't work hard anymore, but in the end he stood on top of everyone's head again in an unusual way.
This vulgar way of growing up... Isn't it the standard template for the so-called "waste chai liu" male protagonist
And after thinking about this, Su Mu suddenly noticed the lack of details during this period, and suddenly looked at Su Tong's eyes seriously, and then asked very seriously:
"So, where did he get those ancient fighting skills that made Qin Wudi able to stand up?"
Obviously, even high-character-level powerhouses such as Qin Dong and Qin Liang have only seen the ancient fighting skills in the imperial city.
As the abandoned son of the Qin family who was completely forgotten, how could Qin Wudi touch these supernatural martial arts
And this question of Su Mu is undoubtedly the question that Su Tong really wants to raise.
Therefore, facing Su Mu's gaze, although Su Tong was indeed a little flustered, he still pressed the deer in his heart, quietly looking back at Su Mu's eyes.
Then, under the wind and snow, he slightly stood on his toes and cautiously pressed Su Mu's ears and said:
"The target chosen by the Dark Bard in the Federation is obviously you and Lu Xi... Then what kind of character do you think the role they chose in the empire will be?" ()
