Douluo's martial arts scalpel

But planning is planning, reality is another matter.

Although Gu Ye had the idea of ​​​​supporting Kadan as king, the current situation was not enough to achieve his goal. He could only briefly talk to Kadan about his goals and certain things.

Kadan cared about Gu Ye physically and mentally, no matter what Gu Ye said, she would agree.

That night, Gu Ye and Kadan began to take the first step in planning the Balak Kingdom.

......

Two days later, at the gate of Soto City, a convoy of cavalry guards slowly drove into Soto City.

In the most luxurious carriage among the convoy, a handsome man in aristocratic robes was sitting on a cushion and looking at a book in his hand.

At this moment, the captain of the knight guard rode to the side of the carriage and said, "Your Highness, Soto City has arrived."

"Yes." Xue Qinghe closed the book, lifted the car curtain and looked towards the gate of Soto City. .seven

Xue Qinghe is very happy to be ordered by Emperor Xue Ye to visit and inspect the kingdoms and duchies under the Tiandou Empire this time.

After all, there are not many opportunities to go out on vacation and play on official business, and at the same time pass news to Wuhundian.

How could he not be happy?

Moreover, it would also allow him to learn about those kingdoms' dissatisfaction with the Tiandou Empire during his inspection of the kingdoms and principalities under the Tiandou Empire. This would also provide Wuhun Palace with information and prepare for their future plans.

Today he should have gone straight to the capital of the Balak Kingdom, but instead he appeared in Soto City. The reason was naturally because of Xuehong, his nominal cousin and the second prince of the Balak Kingdom.

Now King Barak is old and frail, his body is getting worse day by day, and he may go west at any time, while Xuehong has a delusion of becoming a king.

According to Xue Qinghe's understanding, this Xuehong is definitely a piece of trash. If he takes Xuehong under his command and pushes Xuehong to the king's position by virtue of his power, it will maximize his benefits for him, so why not do it.

"Cousin Qinghe!"

At this moment, Xuehong ran out of the city gate excitedly.

At this time, he was disheveled, barefoot and naked, wearing only a pajamas.

This scene actually has a sense of déjà vu as Cao Cao greets Xu You barefoot.

But a quarter of an hour ago, Xuehong was having sex and singing songs with a certain woman in a certain entertainment venue, explaining things in simple terms.

As soon as he heard the news from the guard Qin Xiao, he hurried out without even putting on his clothes.

In the carriage, Xue Qinghe heard someone calling his cousin, and he knew who it was when he saw the person running out of the city gate.

In terms of seniority, Emperor Xue Ye was the cousin of Xue Hong's father, but Xue Hong was older than her. This cousin could indeed be called, and he seemed somewhat close to her.

but...

Xue Qinghe glanced at Xue Hong's appearance, with displeasure hidden in his eyes.

"Whoo~"

Xuehong ran to Xuehong's carriage and was stopped by cavalry guards.

While panting, he said loudly to Xue Qinghe: "Qinghe...cousin, cousin...I'm looking forward to having you here."

"No problem." Xue Qinghe waved his hand to let him go.

The knight guards let him go only after being ordered to do so.

Seeing this, Xuehong hurriedly ran to the carriage.

"Cousin Xuehong, what are you..." Xue Qinghe pointed at Xuehong's disheveled appearance. As for calling him cousin, it was all to show his magnanimity.

"Oh, this, cousin, I ran here non-stop as soon as I heard that Qinghe's cousin was coming to Soto City. Compared with seeing Qinghe's cousin, such trivial matters as changing clothes are nothing, nothing." Xue Hong shamelessly explained .

As for being too late to dress for these things because he was playing with women, who knows if he doesn't say it!

"Oh, that's how it is." Xue Qinghe nodded knowingly, but when he saw the red lip marks on Xuehong's neck and the pungent perfume smell from his body, he thought about the information he had collected about Xuehong before. News, instantly understand what Xuehong is.

To be smart, he is also a bit witty.

But I have no ability, a half-waste, like those nobles, who like to enjoy everything and live a dissolute life.

But for Xue Qinghe, this kind of person is just right, easy to control, and it is exactly this kind of person that he needs.

Then, under the leadership of Xue Hong, Xue Qinghe and his party entered Suotuo City.

As soon as he entered the city, Xuehong led Xue Qinghe to the city lord's mansion. There were a lot of food, wine, beauties and other things of the upper nobles, all of which were brought out for entertainment.

As the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe was used to seeing this kind of thing long ago, and his expression was calm.

But Xuehong explained his thoughts clearly to Xueqinghedao one by one while drinking wine.

For example, if he wants to be Barak's next king, he needs Xue Qinghe's support and so on.

"It's easy to talk, easy to talk!" Xue Qinghe took a sip of the tea ceremony.

"Cousin Qinghe, are you really willing to support me as the next king?" Xue Hong looked at Xue Qinghe excitedly and asked.

Xue Qinghe nodded, then shook his head again.

"Cousin Qinghe, what are you..." Xue Hong didn't quite understand what Xue Qinghe meant.

"I can support you to become the next king, but...what can you bring me?" Xue Qinghe said while sipping tea.

Xue Hong looked at Xue Qinghe and understood what he meant. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Cousin Qinghe, as long as I can become the next king of Balak, I can promise you whatever you need me to do."

In order to become the king, Xuehong would risk everything to avenge his eldest brother who almost died two months ago.

Seeing this, Xue Qinghe said calmly: "Things are easy to talk about."

When Xuehong heard this sentence with profound meaning, he instantly understood what Xue Qinghe meant.

He stood up excitedly and offered three glasses of wine to Xue Qinghe.

Then Xue Qinghe chatted with Xuehong about some things, and then tested Xuehong from the side, and got to know Xuehong better.

He has no talent, is very suitable for control, and is also very suitable for being the next king of Barak.

This is Xue Qinghe's judgment on Xuehong.

"By the way, I heard that the most famous thing in Soto City, the territory of cousin Xue Hong, is the Soto City Great Soul Fighting Arena. I wonder if you can take me to see it?"

"How can cousin Qinghe be dissatisfied if he has such interest? Madam Xia happens to be in the Soul Fighting City right now. She will take cousin Qinghe there later."

Xue Qinghe was a little surprised when he heard that Xuehong's wife was in the Great Soul Arena.

The reason why he wanted to take a look at the fighting spirit was because it was boring to drink with Xuehong here. He might as well go to the spirit fighting field to see if there were any special wild talents, and if so, he could win over him and take them under his command.

But Xuehong said that his wife was fighting the spirit, which made him a little interested.

"That's right, usually my wife maintains the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City, so she will be there under normal circumstances."

"Really? Then I'm a little curious about what kind of heroine your wife is, Cousin Xuehong."

"What kind of heroine is that, just an ordinary woman." Xuehong said modestly, but his heart was full of joy.

After all, Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire, praised his wife, and he himself was very proud of it.

Then the two exchanged pleasantries and then moved to the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City.

And at this time, the VIP room on the highest floor of the Suotuo City Great Soul Arena.

Kadan sat elegantly on the chair, and beside her was Gu Ye.

She watched Gu Ye focus on writing the letter in his hand, and became more and more fascinated as she read.

"Where has he been?" Gu Ye put down the pen in his hand and asked.

"It's been half an hour since I returned to the city lord's palace with Xuehong."

As Cardin was speaking, there was a knock on the door.

"Say." Cardin glanced outside the door.

"The Lord of Xuehong City and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are heading to the Soul Fighting Arena. They will arrive in half a quarter of an hour."

"Well, I see, you go down."

"Yes."

The maid outside the door left, and Kadan looked at Gu Ye.

"You actually came to the Great Soul Arena? You don't need to bother to meet him."

Gu Ye looked forward to Xue Qinghe's arrival, no...it should be Qian Renxue.
