The prince is very fierce

Night falls quietly on the shores of the West Lake. A late snowfall falls on the head of the stone arch bridge. The boat in the lake is lit up with lights. The world seems to be quiet in the beautiful snow scene.

"Auspicious snow heralds a good harvest..."

The lights in the palace of Yuhuang Mountain were as bright as day. Wu King Song Siming was dressed in a python robe. He sat on a chair and looked at the vast world in front of him, but there was no joy in his eyes. After a long silence, he sighed lightly:

"It's hard to survive this winter."

As the vassal king sitting in the south of the Yangtze River, Song Siming knew the current situation of the south of the Yangtze River better than anyone else. The major cities were full of wealthy families and the smell of wine and meat, and the roads in the wilderness were full of frozen bones. It is true that he is the richest in the world, but 90% of the money is in the hands of various powerful families, and the money cannot be used as food. The glutton in Chang'an who is not full of food will not understand how the "Prince of Leisure" of his has a way of leisure. .

The guards stood outside the attic, and there were only a few people on the observation deck. Han Xianchu, the staff member, stood behind King Wu, with a worried look on his face. After a little hesitation, he still advised:

"Your Majesty, it's cold and freezing, so please take care of yourself and go in."

Song Siming is the oldest among the seven kings, almost reaching the age of sixty. The root cause of the disease was caused by being in danger on the river, and his body has been very weak. However, the thin cheeks did not show any abnormality due to the severe cold. He turned to look at the middle-aged scholar next to him:

"Hansheng, the time and place are favorable and the people are harmonious. It seems that the only thing missing is harmony. If the weather gets colder, even if I don't do anything, I will be swept away by the general trend."

Li Hansheng, who was standing by the guardrail, was as tall and handsome as he was when he stayed at Sun's shop, but there was a bit more vicissitudes and an imperceptible coldness between his brows. He was no longer the same person who had been waiting for a piece of silver. I have been a stupid scholar for several days.

Since the bandit stronghold in Shu was wiped out, Li Han gave birth to his wife and lost his daughter, becoming a lonely ghost wandering the rivers and lakes. Maybe it was in response to the old saying, "Heaven will give great responsibility to this person." After experiencing the saddest thing in the world, Li Hansheng seemed to suddenly wake up and become a completely different person.

In just ten years, from a down-and-out scholar who couldn't bear to kill chickens, he became the head of the Eagle Tower. His name was at the top of the heroes of the Criminal Investigation Department. He had countless brave subordinates. He even wished the top six heroes, Akari I kept in touch with him privately.

No one knows where Li Hansheng's appeal comes from. If we really want to find a reason, the most reasonable explanation may be that he is "the best in the world". It seems that this is the only thing that people in the world can accept.

However, Li Hansheng is very mysterious. There are no rumors of Li Hansheng fighting anyone in the world, and there is not even an official portrait.

In the court's exaggeration, Li Hansheng was a wanted criminal, moody, eating people's hearts and so on. But to reach this point, Li Hansheng is obviously not a lunatic with mental problems.

Hearing King Wu's words, Li Hansheng turned his head and was as polite as when he came to Beijing to take the exam:

"My lord, don't worry. You can't avoid what's coming. All you can do is wait and act."

Song Siming sighed and thought for a moment: "I still haven't figured out how the boat on the river sank. The most ruthless emperor's family, sometimes when you are a prince, you are far less powerful than you Jianghu people. So carefree..."

Li Hansheng chuckled lightly and did not respond.

During the chat, footsteps sounded outside the attic.

The guard opened the door, and Wang Zouyin, the head of the Wang family in Hangzhou, walked in with a letter in his hand.

Li Hansheng stood in the dark and looked towards the West Lake in a blink of an eye. He could only see a back figure.

Wang Zoyin quickly walked to King Wu, handed the letter out, and said softly:

"Quinzi asked, and Xu Buling seemed to have other uses for the jade. I'm afraid he won't give it to the prince during his birthday banquet."

King Wu took the envelope, opened it and looked at it for a few times, pondered a little, shook his head and said:

"What's the use of him, the son of a feudal lord, holding a few small items that people in the world are searching for? Alas..."

Han Xianchu frowned and thought for a moment, then bowed and said, "Could it be that Xu Buling discovered the use of jade?"

Wang Zouyin shook his head: "Definitely not. If the use is discovered, King Su's lineage must be hiding the news, or the jade may be sent directly to Chang'an. It is impossible to bring it to Jiangnan with great fanfare."

Han Xianchu thought about it. The four jade articles he was looking for were too hot to handle. If Xu Buling knew the inside story, given the current situation, he would probably want to throw them to King Wu to clear the relationship.

King Wu read the letter carefully and then looked at Li Hansheng:

"Xu Bu Ling said that you can give me a look. If you just take a look, can you find any clues?"

Under the dimly lit eaves, Li Hansheng was silent for a moment and said slowly:

"I can't be sure. I'll have to see it to find out."

Wang Zouyin put all the chips of the Wang family in Hangzhou on the King of Wu and could not afford to lose anything. He frowned and said:

"To make sure nothing goes wrong, we still have to find a way to get the jade. From Quanzi's description, the hairpin is on Xu Buling's head, but I don't know where the jade pendant is. Since I can show it to the prince, I will definitely bring it with me. Can I find it? Someone with more skill can take it out secretly..."

While speaking, Wang Zoyin turned his gaze to Li Hansheng, who was standing in the dark, and his meaning was self-evident.

When counselor Han Xianchu heard this, he shook his head slightly: "The prince is not a Jianghu person and does not understand the importance of 'contemporary Qingkui'. There is no one in the world who can silently take the hairpin from Xu Buling's head. It will inevitably happen." In a dispute, someone who can beat Qing Kui..."

Han Xianchu's eyes also moved to Li Hansheng - the only person who could beat Qing Kui was a master at the level of Shi Wukui.

Faced with this proposal, Li Hansheng rejected it directly:

"We can ignore the lineage of King Su, but we must not make enemies with them. We cannot take action."

King Wu nodded gently. Among the seven kings, the strongest ones are King Su, King Chu, and King Wei. They can all influence the direction of the general situation, so they must not make enemies. But if the jade is not in hand, it will be difficult to carry out the plan for several years. King Wu thought for a while:

"First Chu, go and get the 'Minghong Sword', find someone who has nothing to do with me, and bring the sword to exchange the jade... Remember, it's 'exchange', don't hurt Xu Buling, if he dies in my jurisdiction, even if he has nothing to do with me, the emperor will chop me off first to make amends for King Su."

It is said that the Minghong Sword is a famous sword made of the remaining materials after Huangdi mined copper from Shoushan and cast Xuanyuan Sword. It is not in the weapon list and has only appeared in legends. Hearing that such a heavy weapon was hidden in the hands of King Wu, even Wang Zou Yin was a little surprised.

Han Xianchu thought this method could be tried. It was of sufficient weight. Even if Xu Buling didn't want to exchange it, it wouldn't affect the overall situation.

However, the explanation given by Yuqi to the public was to find the "Tongtian Treasure Book". Those who were interested in the "Tongtian Treasure Book" and were willing to exchange it with a rare sword had to be people from the martial arts world, and they couldn't have anything to do with King Wu, and they could also put pressure on Xu Buling.

The only person who met these conditions in the whole Jiangnan seemed to be Xue Chengzhi, the gun god, one of the ten martial arts champions of Dayue...
