【Son】

For Ximen Chuuxue, whose whereabouts are erratic after leaving Wanmei Villa, Ye Gucheng is much easier to find.Many people have seen City Lord Baiyun appearing in the capital, so those who came to deliver the letter only had to inquire about the property of the Hua family, and they would know that City Lord Baiyun was living in the Southern Palace at this time——the eldest son of the Palace was Baiyun. The apprentice of the city lord.

It is natural for the master to rest at his apprentice's house, and no one would find it strange or inappropriate. It's just that the decisive battle between the two great swordsmen in the world is in Zijin Mountain, which is far away from the capital.Although the person who sent the letter from the Hua family didn't understand why Ye Gucheng didn't leave because the date of the sword match between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue was approaching - but compared to the letter in his hand, these are not important anymore.

Huaxi held Huamanlou's letter in her arms, and handed it to the guards of the palace.

The palace is heavily guarded. More than 620 guards are divided into three squads and six teams, patrolling everywhere. Everyone knows that there must be a lot of money in the treasure house of the palace. I can get in.

For the guards of the palace have armor and bows and arrows,

Ye Gucheng practiced his sword in the courtyard.

Except for the Flying Immortal, he knows a lot of swordsmanship and has seen more swordsmanship, but he only practiced the most basic move when he came and went, but it happened to be this very common move that attracted people around him. The flowers and leaves are constantly flying--what kind of artistic conception is this, no one else can describe it.

As Ye Gucheng said before, even if others saw his swordsmanship, they might not be able to learn it, and even if they learned the sword moves, they might not be able to understand the meaning of the sword—this is a swordsmanship that is sincere to the sword.At this time, the prince of Nan Wang, who is the apprentice of Ye Gucheng, only has moves and no sword intent in his swordsmanship, so even if he learns one of the most powerful swordsmanship in the world today, it is still not as good as those ordinary swordsmen in the world. Second-rate expert.

What you practice with swords is never the moves, but the heart.

Prince Nan Wang was standing not far from Yegu City, under a big pagoda tree, the sun was setting on the top of his head, the shadow of the tree was attached to the man's body, and his thin side face and straight nose bridge could be faintly seen—— This is a very handsome young man.But if someone has been to the court and seen the current emperor, he might mistakenly think that the one standing in front of him is the emperor.

The son of the Southern Prince and the emperor have the same body and the same appearance, which is enough to confuse the real one.This is something that the old prince discovered by accident when he returned to Beijing a few years ago-his son is exactly the same as the current emperor's.

Such a fact made him extremely happy after being shocked.

If the emperor can have two, then who can tell which is real?Which is false?

"Director Wang has no problem, but according to the news from the palace, the emperor still has Xiaoxiang swordsman Wei Ziyun who has been famous for a long time, if we don't lure them away, there may still be gaps in our plan. "Nanwang Shizi looked at Ye Gucheng's long sword with flickering eyes.

He naturally knows how good Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship is, otherwise he wouldn't want to learn it - it's just that his aptitude is hard to compare with Ye Gucheng, even Ye Gucheng's cousin who always loves to imitate Ximen Chuuxue, can't do it. He is much more powerful than him, but fortunately he is not a simple swordsman, and there is no need to pursue these too much.

Because he is still the eldest son of the palace, with all the glory and wealth in his hands, and even in the future, he will be...

The prince of the Southern Prince curled his lips into a smile: "If Master and Ximen Chuixuegai are fighting swords in the Forbidden City, they will definitely be attracted to watch - people who learn swords in this world, if they know that the two most famous swordsmen in the world are not far away They will definitely not be able to stay in the house if they compare swords everywhere."

Just like "Jian Liexinxi", when I see a more brilliant move in my field of expertise, I'm afraid I can't help but watch and study it deeply. This is the normal state of people.

Ye Gucheng's sword had stopped, and the dead leaves in front of him were scattered, as if he was suddenly panicked and wanted to run away, he soared into the sky, and finally fell slowly. He gave Nan Wangshizi a cold look, insightful, indifferent, and passed by. The person on the opposite side seemed to have entered an ice cellar immediately.

Prince Nan's eyes were stinging, he suddenly lowered his head, cupped his hands and said, "I know how much you value this decisive battle—but please, Master, put the overall situation first."

Ye Gucheng didn't speak.

Prince Nan's head pressed even lower, and he felt somewhat annoyed and ashamed at his retreat——

He was originally a noble son, a direct descendant of Emperor Daxing, but standing in front of Ye Gucheng, he still felt the pressure of a fierce tide, just like the sea outside Feixian Island, unfathomably deep and bitingly cold.

Suppressing the panic in his heart, he tried his best to straighten his spine, and finally encouraged him to raise his head and meet Ye Gucheng's cold eyes.

"it is good."

Prince Nan was startled for a moment, opened his mouth wide suddenly, and an expression that did not match his elegance appeared on his originally handsome face, "What?"

Ye Gucheng said coldly: "As you said, the decisive battle will be postponed."

Hearing Ye Gucheng's meaning, Prince Nan's heart suddenly became a little bit happier. He squinted his eyes and asked with a smile, "What's the reason for the delay?"

Ye Gucheng paused, and was about to say a few words, but was suddenly stunned—his sharp eyes looked towards the exit of the courtyard, and there was a person running quickly, a royal guard in silver helmet and iron armor, He was holding a thin letter in his hand, and he was in a hurry.

"Master, Lord Baiyun." The guard bowed and handed over the letter, "People from the Hua family asked my subordinates to deliver this letter to City Lord Ye."

——A very thin letter, not much explanation, and written in a hurry.

Although Baiyuncheng and the Hua family have business contacts, Ye Gucheng seldom meets the Hua family members, unless it is his younger sister who married to the Hua family - and in just a short moment, Ye Gucheng has fainted. Guess who the letter will be written in.

He stretched out his hand to take it, and glanced at the envelope lightly, but suddenly became sharp at the next moment - the signature was not Hua Ruling, not any other member of the Hua family, but Hua Manlou.

Prince Nan frowned, always feeling that something was wrong.

The spies he sent to Baiyun City said... Ye Gucheng's newly recognized younger sister is married to the Hua family. In the past, the relationship between Baiyun City and the Hua family had always been indifferent, but now that they are married, it is inevitable that they will become closer—but this kind of The time is intimate, but it makes Nan Wang Shizi feel like a thorn in his throat.

To be honest, Nanwang Mansion and Baiyun City are a relationship of mutual use. Although I don’t know how my father persuaded Ye Gucheng to usurp the throne together, but I think he must have paid a certain price, which is more than he still has some doubts. , if Ye Gucheng can really usurp the throne, since he has such superb martial arts, will he really give up that seat to him? ——Or Ye Gucheng just wanted him to be a puppet, wait until the people of Baiyun City embezzled the center of power, and then slowly restore the respect of the previous dynasty, and then ascended the throne himself, becoming the emperor in a legitimate way.

——!

Prince Nan was frightened by his divergent thinking, his eyelids trembled, and his fingers trembled for a while—following that, he raised his head in a daze, and found that the people beside him seemed to be getting colder.

Ye Gucheng tightened his fingers on the paper in his hand, and the only power paper turned into powder and annihilated in the air. The corners of his lips were flattened, there was no smile on his face, and even the people around him could still see a bit of anger. "Great heat."

A black-haired man in black appeared in the courtyard, kneeling on the ground and saying, "My subordinate is here."

Ye Gucheng said coldly, "Where is Ximen Chuuxue now?"

Dashu pulled out a medium-thick yellowed booklet from his chest, collected himself, and opened the last page: "The owner of Ximen Village has lived in the western suburb courtyard outside Zijin Mountain for five days."

As a member of the Baiyun City Intelligence Department, Dashu's pamphlet always records the latest developments of people who have recently come into contact with his master——Because the danger is too great, Ximen Chuuxue is listed as a key observation object, but a little Thinking of Ximen Chuuxue who lived in the other courtyard for five days, Dashu couldn't help but sigh. The owner of Wanmei Villa probably attaches great importance to this decisive battle, but if he knows that his city lord is still in the capital, I have the intention of moving, I don't know what expression it will be.

Must be wonderful.

"Prepare your horse and go find Ximen Chuuxue." Ye Gucheng ordered.

Dashu stood up: "Yes."

Ye Gucheng nodded, his eyebrows were deep, and he held the black scabbard sword at his waist. He stretched out and jumped out from the courtyard wall. The buildings under his feet kept retreating, and he left the Nanwang Mansion in a short time.

The Great Heat also disappeared in the courtyard at some point, and Prince Nan opened his mouth, but the moment he stretched out his hand, the white shadow that was speeding in front of him disappeared - Ye Gucheng should go to Ximen Chuuxue at this time. Explain the postponement of the decisive battle?But this kind of thing...why does he need to do it himself?

Is this the "sympathy" that swordsmen only see?

He hid his thoughts and couldn't figure it out for a while.

——It would be great if I could see the letter sent by the Hua family.Stepping on the letter that had been shattered into powder by internal force, Prince Nan heaved a deep sigh—now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, the biggest eunuch in the palace has been bribed, as long as Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue postpone the delay The battle in the Forbidden City attracted the attention of those around the emperor, so he could wear a dragon robe and sit on the throne.

However, in order to keep his power in the supreme position of the world, the first thing he has to do is to slowly erode the power of Baiyun City.

Thinking of this, his eyelids dropped slightly, hiding his slightly anxious expression, and heaved a sigh of relief—but he always felt a little uneasy in his heart.
