Chapter 21 Want to be a princess?
Tread...  

A footstep sounded from the dark tunnel, but two people walked out.

Ye Jingtang's face was still calm as usual, but there was obviously a little more sadness between his brows.

Shang Jianli walked silently, like a ghost floating in front of him, his face was as cold as ever:
"The saddest thing in the world is the twilight of a hero and the graying of a beauty. Ye Gongzi has not yet reached the crown, such things are rare, and it is natural to feel emotional, but don't take it too seriously. Everyone unfolds his life, experience can make you and me Moved, compassionate, should be used on those who deserve compassion."

"Could it be that there is a story about hurting adults?"

"There is no one who has no story in the world. It is nothing more than big and small, wonderful or not."

"Ha ha……"

After chatting for a few words, Ye Jingtang bid farewell and left.

But before he had gone far, he saw Wang Chihu running over and greeted him from a distance:
"Brother Ye, the prince has summoned you, come quickly."

Shang Jianli has not yet left, so he raises his hand to signal:

"Master Ye, please."

When Ye Jingtang saw King Jing's summons, surprise flashed across his eyes. After arranging his clothes, he followed Wang Chihu into the small door under the high wall.

A white wall seems to separate two worlds.

In front of the wall is a solemn and majestic yamen, and through the small gate, the scenery in front of you suddenly opens up, colorful flowers come into view, a veranda is built on the green lake, leading to jagged pavilions, countless young people in colorful clothes A woman walks through it, as if she walked from the world to the Taoyuan of the Heavenly Palace in an instant.

Ye Jingtang walked through the veranda without looking sideways, and did not look at the brightly dressed female family members in the back house of the palace.

But helplessly, he looks a little bit attractive to women. As soon as he appeared from the corridor, he found dozens of eyes cast from everywhere, and he could faintly hear whispers:
"Whose son is this?"

"So handsome, could it be that our prince picked him..."

"It's a good match..."

"If the prince doesn't like it, can you give it to us?"

"You think beautiful..."

The maid in the palace was so mischievous, it can be inferred that Prince Jing is not difficult to serve, Ye Jingtang calmed down, and followed Wang Chihu to Mingyu Tower.

The five-story building can only feel its majesty and beauty when you get close to it. The figure standing below is like a grain of rice.

At the entrance of Mingyu Tower, there was a maid waiting. Wang Chihu stopped when he reached the steps, and quietly winked at Ye Jingtang:

"Brother Ye, if you stand firm this step, you can save yourself 60 years of misguided paths, and you deserve some refreshment."

Ye Jingtang really didn't respond well to this, so he bowed his hands, then lightly lifted his robe and stepped up the steps, followed the maid into Mingyu Tower.

The first floor of the tall building is a spacious hall, but there are no daily furnishings such as tables, chairs, screens, etc. There is an open space in the middle, with a length and width of about six feet. The floor is not a wooden floor, but black stone of unknown material, densely covered with fine scratches.

Surrounded by eight giant pillars, there is a corridor behind the pillars. Dozens of desks are placed along the walls, and weapons such as knives, guns, swords and halberds are lined up on them.

The martial arts of the Great Wei was at its peak, no matter men, women, young or old, rich and poor, everyone would learn some fists and kicks. It is not surprising that the queen has some weapons in her house.

Ye Jingtang didn't pay attention at first, just followed the beautiful maid who looked back at him from time to time, but when he came to a desk, he stopped in his tracks.

On the table made of mahogany, there was a long gun lying horizontally. The barrel of the gun was made of unknown material, but it was black and blue in color, and its luster was like jade.

The spear's point is one and a half feet long, and the black point is like a mirror, exuding a gloomy and cold light under the light, and the same is true for the gun bottle.

The whole gun is not engraved with any patterns and writings, but in the eyes of warriors, it looks like a beautiful woman with a jade body.

And the most important thing is that there is a wooden sign under the desk, engraved with the name of the gun:

鸣龙
Ye Jingtang also inquired about the origin of this strange book after learning about "The Picture of the Dragon" from his adoptive father. According to legend, there was a founding monarch in history who met a strange person in troubled times and got a strange book. First enter the realm of martial arts, and then rule the world in peace and harmony, and then go away on the dragon to ascend to the immortal. For this reason, this wonderful book was called "The Picture of Minglong" by later generations.

And the gun used by the founding monarch to conquer the world was also named "Singing Dragon" by later generations.

Ye Jingtang, as a martial arts practitioner, suddenly saw this kind of 'golden legend' level equipment, he would inevitably stop and look at it a few more times to distinguish the authenticity from the fake.

I don't know if he was too engrossed in watching it, but when Ye Jingtang was observing carefully, a voice suddenly came from his ear:
"Like it?"

The voice is clear and cold, with a majesty that cannot be violated. Just by hearing the voice, one can imagine a serious image of "no anger and self-prestige".

But this voice happened to come from another woman's mouth.

Luo Ning's Yujie voice is light and soft with a touch of softness, it sounds like a mature woman walking out of the mountains.

And this Yujie voice is condescending, confident, and will not be disobeyed, with the air of a domineering female president...

Ye Jingtang didn't hear the footsteps, he was slightly startled, and looked in the blink of an eye—there was another woman in front of the maid leading the way.

The woman has a jade crown on her head, wearing a silver and white python robe, a gold inlaid jade belt around her waist, and a green dragon pendant hanging on her waist.

The style of women's clothing is obviously men's clothing, but it has been slightly modified, and it is more slim. The waist is very tight, and the skirt is very large. head dragon'.

The woman is tall, about eye level with Ye Jingtang's, she stands out from the crowd when placed on a woman.

But this woman's figure is very coordinated, with a standard nine-headed body, slender limbs, and just the right size of the waist. The place that should be slender is slender, and the place that should be plump is very plump!
As for the appearance, the woman's eyebrows and eyes are three-dimensional, her skin is as white as suet, her eyebrows are like willow leaves, her lips under the bridge of her nose are high, and she has a bright red lip rouge, which is very eye-catching, but not at all seductive.It can be said that the beauty is dignified and majestic, and "beauty" is too soft to describe it, and I feel that "beautiful" is more appropriate to describe it.

Ye Jingtang was surprised to see such a powerful beauty with flaming red lips in a blink of an eye, but he did not lose his composure. He raised his hand and saluted:
"At Xiaye Jingtang, I met His Royal Highness Prince Jing."

Dongfang was quite close to the person, standing behind Ye Jingtang, seeing him looking back, seeing that there was no abnormality in him, his eyes were quite appreciative:
"Don't be chaotic in the face of danger, don't be surprised by favor or disgrace, and have a good mind. No courtesy."

Ye Jingtang recognized the woman's identity from the boa robe, but he really didn't expect Prince Jing to be so young. He stopped his hands and stood up straight. Instead of looking at Prince Jing's appearance, he looked at the 'Dragon Spear' and answered the question just now:
"I'm just curious, so I stopped to take a look. I don't know marksmanship, so I really can't say I like it."

Dongfang Liren took the spear and looked it up in his hand:

"The Dragon Singing Spear is an old object from hundreds of years ago. No matter how powerful it was back then, it has been passed down to the present day, and it is difficult to use it. It is used as a decoration in the imperial city. This gun is an imitation, but the material is better than the original one. , more than that.”

As he spoke, holding the gun with one hand, he handed it to Ye Jingtang:
"Try?"

Ye Jingtang didn't answer, and said in shame:

"I don't know marksmanship, so I really don't dare to waste everything, please forgive me, Your Highness."

Dongfang Liren retracted his spear, put it back on the desk, and walked along many circular corridors:

"My king is a martial artist. Not only are famous soldiers from all over the world hidden in this building, but there are also many martial arts cheats handed down from the past dynasties. Since childhood, I have thought of 'gathering the strengths of a hundred schools of thought into one body'. Unfortunately, people in the world have strict rules, and real kung fu is only handed down." Apprentice, if you don’t teach outsiders, you won’t even give me face.”

Ye Jingtang followed and pondered for a while:
"Prince Jing wants to learn my sword skills?"

Dongfang Liren paused, and looked at Ye Jingtang in a blink of an eye:
"You are smart. Are you willing to part with it?"

Ye Jingtang was naturally willing, his goal was to go to the palace to dig out the "Song of the Dragon", compared to the "Song of the Dragon" and the contacts in Prince Jing's mansion, what is a sword technique that has seen the light?
"No matter how good the knife is, it depends on who owns it. I dare not teach outsiders the real kung fu, because I am afraid that outsiders will be outdated. My knife has seen the light, and it can't be used as a unique skill at the bottom of the box. Teaching outsiders can be used better than me. Well, you can still beat me with other moves; if I don't use it well, maybe this knife is not my one-handed general, so why not teach it to the world?"

Dongfang Liren nodded slightly: "Children can be taught. Martial Immortals are in the official city, and they will never refuse any master who comes to ask for advice. They are afraid that the other party will not understand, and they may have the same thoughts as you. Unfortunately, so far, no one has been able to compare with Feng. The official city competes on the same stage, I hope you can do the same in the future."

"Prince Jing thinks too highly of me. I don't have such big ambitions, but I'm just a little selfish. I only know how to do this knife. If Prince Jing thinks highly of it, he can teach me a half way afterwards..."

Dongfang Liren understood the meaning—exchanging things—she turned around:

"It's easy to say. Do you want to learn Junshantai's "Dragon Slaying Order"?"

?

Ye Jingtang was really surprised to hear this.

The sword leader Xuanyuan Chao is the enemy of his adoptive father. If he can learn the "Dragon Slaying Order", he will use Xuanyuan Chao's sword technique to put Xuanyuan Chaoqian down in the future, and teach Junshantai how to use the "Dragon Slaying Order"...

How aggressive do you have to be...

Thinking of this, Ye Jingtang's heart skipped a beat, but he said with embarrassment after thinking about it:

"I will use one knife to replace the "Dragon Slaying Order" of the current sword leader, I am afraid..."

"You still have some self-awareness."

Dongfang Liren walked to the desk, raised his plain hand lightly, picked up a beautifully crafted old knife, and looked back and forth:
"You only know how to start with one move, and you can't even form your own school. It's definitely not enough to exchange for the complete "Dragon Slaying Order". You must at least exchange for a complete high-level martial arts, and this king will teach you."

Ye Jingtang knew that there was no such good thing, so he was a little helpless:
"I really only know this knife, but I'm still thinking about it later. When I can figure it out, I really don't know for sure."

"If you perfect this knife, at least ten years later, I won't be in the mood to wait."

"What does Prince Jing mean?"

Dongfang Liren flicked his fingers, and the precious sword came out of its sheath. It can be seen that the word 'Tianhe' is engraved near the guard of the precious sword. It seems that there is a high probability that it is Qiu Tianhe's saber:

"Are you interested in "Tianhe Knife"?"

"..."

When Ye Jingtang saw this precious sword, he suddenly understood Prince Jing's intention - she wanted to learn "Tianhe Sword", but Qiu Tianhe would definitely not be able to teach it, so she wanted to borrow his hand and learn it from Qiu Tianhe.

Ye Jingtang heard about the past between Qiu Tianhe and his adoptive father today, so it is difficult to say whether the foster father is right or wrong, but there is nothing wrong with what Qiu Tianhe did, if there is a chance to get it out, he will definitely not stand idly by.

After thinking for a while, Ye Jingtang shook his head and sighed softly:

"Tianhe sword is famous all over the world. If I have the chance, I would naturally want to learn it. But Qiu Tianhe is in prison, and I have to remember my love when I learn the sword technique. Knowing that the life of the teacher who taught me is dying, if I ignore it, I will become White-eyed wolf; if I rescue him, His Highness may imprison me too."

Dongfang Liren put the sword back into its scabbard and put it on the table:

"You can send your family property to the capital from thousands of miles away, and this king can see that you value love and loyalty. Naturally, you will not be allowed to do this kind of dilemma. Qiu Tianhe was captured and has not been executed so far. Do you know the reason?"

Ye Jingtang shook his head.

"In the second year of Cheng'an, Qiu Tianhe robbed Xuanyuan Shuye, the beauty girl. Xuanyuan Shuye was the daughter of the Marquis of Junshan. She was supposed to be named a noble concubine, but she was robbed. There was a shortage of one empress and two concubines. A woman from a family enters the palace."

Dongfang Liren turned around, with his head held high and his body straight:

"After that woman entered the palace, she was favored by her father and gave birth to two princesses. Can you guess which two princesses they are?"

"..."

Ye Jingtang looked at the slim Prince Jing in front of him, quite surprised:

"It's Prince Jing and..."

Dongfang Liren nodded and continued walking along the corridor:

"Although it is a mistake, but Qiu Tianhe can be regarded as 'conglong meritorious service'. I don't want to kill him because I want his sword skills; disgusted.

"If you learn his sword skills, respect him as an elder, and are willing to do things for this king, this king can write a letter to the emperor for your sake, and let Qiu Tianhe leave the dungeon. There is no need to think about it, capital crimes can be avoided, life crimes cannot be escaped, allowing Qiu Tianhe to find a small courtyard near Heiya to take care of him is already the greatest forgiveness for him."

Ye Jingtang was slightly silent about this proposal:

"What does Prince Jing want me to do?"

"Um……"

Dongfang Liren stopped on the spot with his hands behind his back, turned his head to look at Ye Jingtang's unparalleled handsome face, tall and tough body, thoughtfully.

? !
Ye Jingtang stood up a little straighter, feeling this hot queen, meaning - do you want to be a princess?
"Uh……"

"Humph~"

Dongfang Liren turned his cheeks back, leaving the back of Ye Jingtang's head:

"Don't think too much. This king has seen all kinds of talents under one person and above ten thousand people. You can't get into the eyes of this king with your flamboyant fists and embroidered legs. This king is in charge of the black office and is responsible for recovering The gangsters who do evil in the Jianghu, what do you think you can do?"

Ye Jingtang knew that there was no such good thing, and said with a resentful smile:
"Understood, the thugs who disregard human life, everyone can punish them. If I have a chance to meet, Prince Jing will also kill the people if he doesn't open his mouth."

"Empty words have no proof, how can I trust you?"

Dongfang Liren raised his hand slightly: "You dare to take the case of the wingless owl, which means you are sure. Let me show you your ability first."

What?
I have a hammer to hold!
Ye Jingtang secretly thought that something was wrong—he was full of "earthworm vertical chopping" gangsters in his hands just now. For the sake of safety, he chose a job with a lower risk. He wanted to do his best. That's it.

After what Prince Jing said, if he can't catch it, his image in King Jing's heart will be greatly reduced. Looking for opportunities to dig treasures in the palace will naturally become a problem...

He took over the errand by himself, and Ye Jingtang can't go back on his word and change it now. Thinking about it, he still bites the bullet and said:
"I will definitely do my best."

"Go, my king is waiting for the good news."
