Everyone present could feel the hostility between Tuoba Kuangfeng and Liu Xuan. Everyone knew that Tuoba Kuangfeng wanted to have a hand in the matter of the new king, but they did not expect that it would develop to the point of open conflict. , could it be that there is no pressure on the Yunxiao Kingdom and the three major tribes, and the kingdom is finally going to be in civil strife
Liu Xuan's expression was sinister and his tone was cold: "The regent must have turned his elbows outward! Besides, even if I deal with the problem a little extreme, don't you see how my son was injured by him? A traitor, in the royal capital So arrogant, is this the person the regent wants to protect?"
Tuoba Kuangfeng looked at Liu Mo who was being held by a strong man from the Liu family. He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth and glanced at Qi Ying. He thought that this kid had too strong taste. He also understood why Liu Xuan was so angry...
"The Champion has made great contributions to the kingdom. The merits and demerits are not yours alone to decide. What's more, the Champion has a noble status and strong strength. Will he deliberately be at odds with a junior in your family?"
Qi Ying also interjected: "Oh, whoever made the trouble before can be seen clearly by anyone with eyes. If you still protect yourself in front of so many people, can you be a little more shameless?"
Wow!
Everyone was stunned. I don’t know how many people looked at Qi Ying like a fool. This is the gilded capital. The person opposite you is Liu Xuan, a high-ranking official. You actually talked to him like this. Tuoba Kuangfeng said just now. It's so heavy that I'm looking for death.
Too arrogant!
Even if the regent can save your life now, you will never be able to survive in the royal capital in the future.
Liu Xuan's face turned green and white. He looked at Qi Ying and then at Tuoba Guangfeng. He knew that he would not be able to take advantage of these two "outsiders" today. He snorted, waved his hand and led all Liu Xuan with him. The family left through the air, and before leaving, they threatened: "Qi Ying, you escaped to death tonight, and you must give me an explanation tomorrow in front of all the important officials in the capital... Otherwise, I will let the members of the eighteen families in the capital Even if all the strong men come forward, the regent can’t protect you!”
On the spot, Tuoba Kuangfeng looked very unhappy. He angrily scolded the two officials who brought Qi Ying here, and ordered Ye Que to take Qi Ying back to the palace to nurse him back to his injuries.
During the process, Qi Ying kept sneering in his heart. Tuoba Kuangfeng was so good at acting. It was obvious that he had found an opportunity to deliberately cause a conflict between himself and Liu Mo to test his own strength, but now he was pretending as if this was not the case. .
royal palace.
"I need a lot of elixirs, the more the better! Give me a quiet room and enough crystal stones and formation jade slips, otherwise I may not be able to return to my peak condition before the New Year."
Qi Ying made various requests to Ye Que, and the latter met them one by one.
Soon after, Qi Ying lived in a secret room that was completely isolated from the outside, and there were also a lot of top-quality pills, crystals, and arrays.
Qi Ying first set up several spirit gathering arrays. When he is in the spirit gathering array, the energy of the surrounding world will gather at a faster rate, and the spiritual power in his body will flow slightly faster.
After that, he began to swallow a large amount of pills and refine them in his body, turning them into surging energy that poured into his left hand.
"More than half of the black energy has been consumed, and they must be filled as soon as possible. Fortunately, I can condense them much faster now."
In less than an hour, Qi Ying had already condensed two plump balls, and the speed was several times faster than before.
"Sure enough, the speed has become much faster..."
Qi Ying took off her black robe and looked at her left arm—now, the black area was no longer just at the elbow, but had spread to the area near her left shoulder. Most of her left arm was completely black, from the skin to the muscles. Even the bone meridians have the same changes.
When marching into the three major tribes, the army of the Northern Expedition advanced all the way, laying down millions of corpses. Qi Ying's left hand continued to grow on the battlefield filled with the aura of death, expanding the coverage of the black area.
Other aspects have not changed much, except that the speed of condensing black energy has become significantly faster. As long as the spiritual power in the body is maintained in sufficient condition, black energy can be continuously produced and distributed to various key acupoints and Dantian in the body.
I just don’t know if it will continue to grow after it reaches the left shoulder, and even spread to the entire body, with changes from top to bottom just like when it transformed
Overnight, Qi Ying basically recovered completely, and the black energy was filled to almost two-thirds. It is estimated that it will be completely full in a day or two.
But Qi Ying could no longer stay in the secret room, because Liu Xuan really brought the heads of eighteen families in the royal capital to the palace and asked the regent for an explanation!
There were more people in the main hall than on any day in the previous two months. Except for War God Dragon and others who were still at Jianshan, almost all the dignitaries of the Gilded Kingdom who were now well-known had arrived.
The people present were very emotional. Apparently after hearing what happened last night, they all felt aggrieved for Liu Xuan. The Liu family was a family of loyal loyalists who fought for the kingdom through life and death, but in the end they were humiliated by a traitor who fled here
People were very dissatisfied, especially under the instigation of Tuoba Yong and Tuoba Hong. Everyone demanded that Tuoba Kuangfeng must give the Liu family an explanation and not let Qi Ying go.
People with complicated minds will understand that on the surface it is the major families who are dissatisfied with Qi Ying, but in fact it is the major families that are dissatisfied with Tuoba Kuangfeng.
The imperial autocracy has been pressing on them for too long, and Tuoba Botao is dead. They finally waited for an opportunity, but unexpectedly a powerful Tuoba Kuangfeng appeared.
If Tuoba Kuangfeng seizes the throne of the king, the extreme autocratic power of the imperial power will not change, and no matter which prince succeeds to the throne, it will be conducive to the decentralization of power among the aristocratic families.
It would be best to take this opportunity to deprive the regent of his power so that he can only become an important prince in the kingdom and cannot participate in the competition for the position of king.
Tuoba Kuangfeng wanted to completely protect Qi Ying at first, but later he couldn't stand the pressure anymore and asked Ye Que to take Qi Ying out and ask Qi Ying to apologize to Liu Xuan in front of all the dignitaries, hoping to end the matter.
Liu Xuan refused to give up, even with tears streaming down his face: "My Liu family has fought hard for the kingdom, and my sons, brothers, and uncles have died on the battlefield more than I can count with two hands. Now Quan Zi is being humiliated by Qi Ying in the capital." , in the end, all you can get is an apology and some compensation that is nothing at all? The regent’s move has touched the hearts of many people in King Han!”
Tuoba Kuangfeng's face became extremely ugly, and the dignitaries in the hall took advantage of this to attack. No matter how strong he was, he could not suppress everyone. He could only send a message to Qi Ying: "Champion Hou, please feel aggrieved." Well, if Liu Xuan wants anything, just agree to it, and I guarantee that your life will not be in danger."
