Yue Ningxiang

Whispering, Prince Xiao Tiancheng gave them a look, and they dared not gossip anymore.

Xiao Tiancheng was also looking at the First Prince, but what he saw was not the First Prince, but a servant with his head bowed behind the First Prince.

The slave was neither tall nor short, fat or thin, with his head lowered, and followed closely behind the eldest prince, but instinctively, Xiao Tiancheng felt that he was unusual. He followed behind the eldest prince, and there was no sadness of a slave around him. Qu, although he couldn't see his face, he could imagine how proud this man's face must be.

At this time, the eldest prince had already entered the table, his face was pale, and the servants behind him were all looking at their noses, noses and hearts, with their hands drooping, protecting behind their master.

Xiao Tiancheng continued to look at the slave behind him, he was not an ordinary person, wearing the clothes of a slave, but looked like a master, even, Xiao Tiancheng felt that this person was more like a prince than his elder brother!

He felt that even if he mixed himself in the mud, the pearl was still the pearl.That man is a bright pearl, and the humbleness of his clothes cannot conceal his original nobility.And - even standing among the princes, this person's aura is so outstanding that it cannot be overwhelmed by the light.

Where did Brother Huang get this slave who doesn't look like a slave?

Xiao Tiancheng shook his fan, and Xiao Tianrui, who was beside him, comprehended, and made gestures with his hands. Immediately, a maid came to the side of King Yang calmly with delicacies, pretending to be unstable and about to fall, and to the person behind King Yang people fall.

Xiao Tiancheng watched greedily, but unfortunately, the expected raising of the head did not happen, the person standing behind King Yang only moved his fingers slightly, and the maid who was about to fall was lifted up by an invisible force, and she was firmly on the ground again.

"What is the origin of this man?"

Xiao Tianrui also saw the strangeness of this person, and raised doubts to his imperial brother while drinking.

"He is someone who is absolutely impossible to become a servant of the Great Emperor."

Xiao Tiancheng and Xiao Tianrui both knew how much King Yang was worth, and with his wretched and lustful nature, how could it be possible for such an incomparable expert to serve behind him?I'm afraid this person has other plans for sneaking into Yangwang's residence.

Could it be that--

For a moment, Xiao Tianrui and Xiao Tiancheng had chills, they thought of the same possibility.

Italian!

This man is from the Yi-Ni sect, and he came here for the affairs of Jiangnan.The palace is heavily guarded and it is inconvenient for them to do anything, but all the princes are gathered at the fourth prince's residence tonight, which is the best chance to make a move!

But when thinking of this possibility, Xiao Tiancheng felt relieved at first: the seventh younger brother was not here, and the seventh younger brother was punished by the emperor. Although the food and clothing are the standard of the prince, and the rewards every year will not be less, but within two years He can't step out of Anle Prince's Mansion, even if it's the Taimiao ancestor worship and the Wanshou Royal Banquet, he is not allowed to leave the palace.

If what happened today was really an assassination conspiracy by the Yi-Nijiao, the seventh brother escaped unintentionally.

"Brother Huang, I'll make arrangements."

Resigned in a low voice, Xiao Tianrui found an excuse to leave the banquet, he went to the dark place, and made a sign of the crisis, so he was protecting the prince from a distance in the dark. .

Of course, Xiao Tianrui also had his own calculations, if he took advantage of this opportunity to kill Emperor Cang and several other princes, then no one would be able to shake Xiao Tiancheng's throne.It's a pity that Xiao Yu is confined at home, otherwise how comfortable it would be to get rid of this biggest thorn in his flesh by the way.

Xiao Tiancheng didn't know his younger brother's thoughts, he just thought that if he survived this incident safely, he must win over the religious groups well after assuming the throne, they are far more terrifying than the reckless Jianghu who are not afraid of death.

Religious believers are the craziest, they are not greedy for power and enjoyment, they can live and die fearlessly for an illusory belief.Xiao Tianrui also said that when he annihilated the branch in Jiangnan, he didn't want to slaughter the village, but those Yi-Ni believers actually poisoned the water source, and cooked rice and vegetables with poison as usual, as if they were dead!Even the believers knew that they would die when the army came, so the whole village distributed poison, and the poison was implanted in the bone marrow. When the village was burned, the poisonous gas overflowed and affected hundreds of miles!

These people are too scary. For their own beliefs, they risk their lives. If they can use the same method to control the army, there is no place in the world that cannot be broken!

During the Jiangnan battle, the biggest mistake made by his father was that he should not suppress the religious forces. He should not have thought that he was really the lord of the world, a monarch that the people of the world would like to obey.There is no end to the territory of the monarchy, but there is no end to the rule of religion.

Because the monarch only rules the land, but the religion rules the hearts of the people!

——※—————————————————————————————————————————————

Different from the nervousness of the two princes, Su Yunming didn't notice the coming crisis at all.

The sudden arrival of the fourth prince's servant made Su Yunming stop. He didn't want to mess with his head. The very capable first prince took the initiative to please Su Yunming, saying that he would help Su Yunming leave the fourth prince's mansion (in fact, he was just afraid of offending this unpredictable weirdo. made his own life risky), and called a servant who was somewhat similar to Su Yunming to come in, and then, Su Yunming knocked the man unconscious, and the eldest prince helped him strip off the servant's clothes, (this time to please (By the way, take advantage of some beauties) put it on, and finally pretended to be nonchalant, and limped away from the backyard with Su Yunming in disguise.

The front was very lively, most of the princes had seen Su Yunming's face, but time was in a hurry, he didn't have time to change his face.So, Su Yunming, who was standing behind the eldest prince, lowered his head, secretly praying for the end of the banquet.

While waiting, he smelled an unusually familiar scent.

Fragrant!

Incense!

Very light incense sticks, but it's not wrong, this is the fragrance that people who have served Vulcan all the year round, could it be that the leader sent a master of Vulcan to avenge the followers of Jiangnan?

[Interlude: The Yi Ni religion comes from the Western Regions and is a branch of the Zoroastrianism. Although it has maintained the characteristics of the Western Regions when it entered China, it is still seriously localized.In addition, due to the resistance of China and Turkey to foreign religions, the Sinister religion has developed into not only having some elements necessary for religious groups, but also expanding business, and has obtained privileges in the small countries in the Western Regions that established the status of the Sinister religion as a state religion. Selling goods across borders does not require entry and exit taxes.Therefore, the finance of the Italian Church does not rely on the donations of believers. The church is basically self-sufficient, and it can also help the poor. Naturally, it has developed rapidly and the believers have become loyal.

The Yi Ni religion worships the god of light, and fire, as the main symbol of light, is also worshiped.Vulcan is the god in charge of punishment in the Yi-Ni religion, and the Vulcan Temple is the punishment hall of the Yi-Ni religion, and the high priest who serves the Vulcan is the law-enforcement elder in the understanding of the Jianghu people. 】

The incense sticks are very weak, but even if they are disguised, they cannot be eliminated, because these people bathe in the incense sticks every day and night.Fortunately, this kind of fragrance has a special smell, and even ordinary believers have never smelled it. It is expected that the people at the scene did not see through their disguise.

It's just that Xiao Tianrui left the table suddenly, and Su Yunming's heart sank. Did he find out?

Although he didn't know the reason why the masters from the sect sneaked into the fourth prince's mansion, Su Yunming was determined not to let his compatriots suffer any harm.He has been paying attention to the situation and must protect them!

When the banquet reached its climax, two people came to the stage, one dressed in white to win snow, the other dressed in red, holding a sharp sword in his hand. After taking the stage, the two of them stood at a distance of three zhang, as if they were fighting in a martial arts world. This is the sword dance.

Sword dance is a dance that is rarely performed on the stage, especially double sword dance. It is two people performing various fighting talents in the dance. The momentum is quite equal. There is no beauty in the reckless fights in the rivers and lakes.

The torches were burning, and a shirtless man walked onto the stage. The thunderous drums sounded, and the dancers bowed to each other.

This is an alluring dance. The two dancers are both geniuses in the world. At this moment, the performance in front of the imperial court is showing their strengths. The sword is sharp and the sword is full of light. Which one has the upper hand, and which one is left behind.

For the guards in the dark, this sword dance is another kind of temptation.The two dancers wielded peerless swordsmanship. Although there were no sharp attacks or tricks to hurt people, every blow was so exquisite. In martial arts, you can take it to the next level.

The man playing drums on the side, the muscles on his arms swelled up, and every blow hit his heart. Watching this sword dance and listening to the deafening drumbeat, his heartbeat was also connected with the drumbeat before he knew it. All in one.

For a moment, everyone showed their madness.

Su Yunming lowered his head, he has watched this dance thousands of times, and he memorizes every movement in his heart, so he can practice again at any time.But watching it under the torch again, I still have to feel its exquisiteness.

It's just that the leader sent three priests this time, and let these people watch the ritual dance of Vulcan. What is the purpose of praising them so much?

While thinking, the dance was still going on, and Su Yunming suddenly smelled a faint fishy smell, which was the smell of blood-sucking ox hair needles.This kind of ox hair needle is made from spider silk, which is highly poisonous and can float in the air. After sticking to human skin, it will seep into the body along the pores, and then corrode little by little.

The blood-sucking ox hair needles are made from spider silk, and they are blown away by the wind. No wind or palm wind can blow them away, and because they are too thin, even if they stick to the body, they will not feel any abnormality.

That's it!
