After a small disturbance, Bea and Black Horse House walked into the three-story building side by side. wWw,QUAbEn-XIAoShUo,cOM

It can be seen that Bea is very satisfied with the performance of Dark Horse House just now. The two of them are laughing and talking and are very close. Lin Qi looked at the two people walking away and couldn't help but nodded repeatedly. This is not surprising at all. Beya and Black Horsehouse are both military nobles. It is simply that Beya's family has more power in the military than Black Horsehouse's Bavel family.

Even if Lin Qi can show up, it is very possible that the Black Horse House family may be a vassal of the Beiya family.

The army is a violent monster forged from iron and blood. In that bloody hell, the male creatures who work hard together can easily develop an indestructible and deep friendship. This kind of friendship will become more mellow as the years go by, and often even affect the friendship of future generations.

Neither Bea nor Heimahaus had been on the battlefield, but this did not prevent them from having friends since childhood.

At least Dark Horse House came out in time to save Bea just now. It's hard to say whether this is a coincidence or intentional.

After taking a deep look at the backs of Bea and Black Horsehouse, Lin Qi sneered a few times. The dandy men and young ladies nearby glanced at Lin Qi and Long Cheng curiously, and casually glanced at Yu Lian from the corner of their eyes. They laughed softly and walked toward the shade of the greenery accompanied by their guards. A three-story building in the depths.

Tonight is a party called by Titian, and almost all the upper-class aristocratic children in the imperial capital will attend. Tonight's party is not just about singing and dancing, not just about drinking and drinking, but more importantly, it is a gambling game, a gambling game that all the aristocratic children in the imperial capital are well aware of.

The relationship behind this bet is complicated. On the surface, this bet determines the ownership of Silver Crescent, the third-ranked trading bank in the imperial capital. If Titian wins tonight's bet, then he will get the ownership of Silver Crescent. This huge money-making machine with an annual net profit of tens of millions of gold coins will belong to Titian.

If Titian loses this bet tonight, then he will have to pay for all the shops under his name, as well as several manors outside the city and two residences in the city. Such losses are also tens of millions.

Long Cheng's ears turned freely like a horse's ears. He heard clearly all the whispers of those noble youths. He couldn't help but laugh: "It's interesting. That Titian is very courageous. Such an important person." How dare he leave the bet to you, whom he just met just a few days ago?"

Lin Qi's ears were also very keen. He also heard the mutterings of those people. He couldn't help but shrugged his shoulders and patted his chest hard: "You can tell by my appearance that I am trustworthy! Well, it's really strange. , is he so trusting of me?"

Shaking his head, Lin Qi was about to call Long Cheng and Yu Lian to the small building when three pale golden carriages drove over quietly. Fifty palace guards wearing white tights, red tights, and bronze armor surrounded the three carriages and rode proudly on tall horses.

The guards who had just asked so many noble princes from the imperial capital to dismount did not stop the three carriages. They respectfully separated to both sides of the road and bowed deeply to the three carriages. Three carriages drove slowly along the path. As they passed Lin Qi and the others, someone seemed to whisper something, and the carriages and the palace guards riding horses stopped at the same time.

The curtains of the carriage in the middle were opened, and a young man with a soft face that made people feel close to him at first sight smiled and waved to Yu Lian. Yu Lian hurriedly walked over and respectfully performed a complicated court etiquette to the young man: "Your Highness Latus!"

Latus smiled softly, glanced at Lin Qi and Long Cheng, and nodded slowly: "Are those two the people Titian told me about?"...,

Lin Qi took a step forward and bowed slightly to Latus: "Your Highness, it is an honor to meet you!"

Long Cheng, on the other hand, haughtily crossed his hands in front of his chest and looked at Latus sideways. Yu Lian called Latus his highness. Obviously Latus was a member of the imperial royal family, and if he was familiar with Titian, then he must be a direct royal member of the empire. To Long Cheng, any member of the royal family is no different from ants on the ground in his eyes.

Coming from an extremely powerful ancient empire in the East, Longcheng really looked down on these monkeys from an uncivilized savage country. Even members of the royal family among monkeys are just slightly stronger monkeys with more gorgeous feathers.

Latus glanced at Longcheng with a smile, said a few words to Yu Lian, then gently patted the window, and the three carriages started at the same time.

After the three carriages had gone away, Yu Lian returned to Lin Qi and introduced Latus's identity in a low voice: "His Royal Highness Latus is the eldest son of the third prince. The third prince was named the Grand Duke of Proance. , and have a very good relationship with Mr. Hua Li. His Highness Latus is also a friend who grew up with Mr. Titian."

Lin Qi nodded thoughtfully, while Long Cheng snorted disdainfully: "So, the former prime minister of the Hua Li family just wants to support the third prince to ascend the throne? Look at that picture of little Latus With their chicken-like faces, father and son should support the civil service and oppose the military, right?"

Yu Lian looked at Long Cheng in shock. Although his words were unpleasant, they hit the nail on the head and hit the key point of the matter.

Before Long Cheng could finish his words, a frantic sound of horse hooves roared over. A tall knight wearing black armor and a fully enclosed horn helmet galloped over, surrounded by nearly a hundred palace guards. One of Titian's guards escaped a little late, and was whipped to the ground by the black-armored knight.

The screams kept coming, and the guard who was knocked down was struggling and twitching wildly on the ground. The whip penetrated deeply into his flesh, opening a tragic wound two feet long and three inches deep on his body. Blood spurted out from the huge wound, and the ground was soon stained red.

The corners of Lin Qi's eyes twitched. He saw clearly the whip on the hand of the black-armored knight. Was it still a whip? It was clearly a sharp weapon for killing people. The whip, which was more than one meter long and as thick as two fingers, was inlaid with many sharp triangular iron thorns. It was simply a vicious object used to kill people.

Yu Lian's body trembled, and he murmured in a low voice: "Go quickly, don't let him run into you. This is His Highness Maris, the son of the eldest prince. He and Bea are good friends, and this time His Excellency Titian is confronting him." bet!"

Such a fierce god is actually the prince of the empire

Lin Qi gasped, shook his head, and pulled Long Cheng away. He suddenly understood that tonight's bet was probably not simple, as it involved an internal battle within the royal family.

Danshi Titian, he so rashly let himself take his place in the battle

What the hell!
