Returning after three years of reincarnation in the world of martial arts

Li Zhongwu nodded, and raised his right hand to grab her left hand that was helping him straighten his collar, "It's so late, why do you still help me straighten my collar? Let's go to bed and rest!"

Yuan Miaoyu looked helpless, "I have filial piety..."

Li Zhongwu interrupted her, "I know, I don't want to do anything, you and I, husband and wife, sleep together at night, isn't it okay?"

Yuan Miaoyu looked into his eyes, "Do you really have other ideas?"

Li Zhongwu smiled and nodded.

Yuan Miaoyu hesitated slightly, then nodded slightly.

……

East Palace.

On the pavilion above the water, the crown prince Yuan Miao, who was dressed in a black python robe, stood facing the water, slightly raised his face and looked up at the bright moon in the night.

Liang Xiaoqing and Thunder God Ren Hebin stood quietly not far behind Yuan Miaoting.

There was silence on the pavilion, only the chirping of insects in the lake could be heard softly.

I don't know how long the silence lasted, Yuan Miao sighed softly: "I didn't expect Seventh Sister to have such great ambitions, she would break the convention and become a queen, and Gu didn't expect her to make such a move that would make Gu's reputation ruined, Xiaoqing! Do you think there is any hope for Gu in such a land now?"

Liang Xiaoqing lowered her head slightly, and said softly: "Your Highness, worry too much. If you have a good reputation, you can act kingly, and if you have a bad reputation, you can act domineering! Don't look at the news in the media today criticizing you for murdering the Ninth Prince, but that's because you haven't sat on the throne yet! As long as you sit in that position, all the voices criticizing you will disappear! All the media will compete to praise you! You're in charge, and everything will be fine."

Thunder God Ren Hebin looked at Liang Xiaoqing in surprise.

Yuan Miaoting still turned his back to them, and after a moment of silence, Yuan Miaoting nodded slightly, "That's right! Since ancient times, whoever wins is the righteous one, and whoever loses is the evil one! It's not like there have been emperors who killed their fathers and brothers."

At this point, he turned to look at Liang Xiaoqing and Ren Hebin, squinted his eyes and said: "calculate the time, Utsu Yayoi should be here soon, then, Thunder God, you and Utsu Yayoi will go together! If Utsu Yayoi can destroy Li Zhongwu, you will take the Seventh Princess! Force her to hand over the jade seal! If Utsu Yayoi loses to Li Zhongwu, if you have a chance, you will kill Utsu Yayoi, and you must not let him confess us!"

Facing the prince's gloomy gaze, Ren Hebin nodded silently.

Yuan Miao looked at Liang Xiaoqing again, "Xiaoqing! Call Zhou Huabin back! In case we fail this time, Zhou Huabin's Youlong Sword is also worthy of a fight, and should be able to escort you and me out of Tianque City! As long as you can escape from Tianque City, as an orphan, no matter where you go, you can claim the king! There is also a chance to make a comeback!"

Liang Xiaoqing nodded, "Yes! Your Highness!"

At this moment, a guard came running quickly from the shore, and when he got close, the guard knelt on one knee and reported, "Your Highness! Mr. Yu has arrived."

Yuan Miaoting, Liang Xiaoqing, and Ren Hebin were all in good spirits.

Yuan Miao hummed, "Mr. Yu, please come here!"

Before the words fell, a strange wind suddenly blew.

Thunder God Ren Hebin's eyes sharpened, and there was a flash of lightning in his eyes, and he was about to shoot as soon as he raised his right hand.

Yuan Miaoting suddenly raised her hand to stop it, "Thunder God! Don't be rude!"

The strange wind disappeared, and Yayoi Utsu appeared on the pavilion in a black samurai uniform, about three or four meters away from Yuan Miaoting.

Utsuya holds a black samurai sword in his left hand.

Hearing Yuan Miaotang's words to stop Thunder God, Utsu Yayoi smiled slightly, lowered her head and bowed to Yuan Miaotang, "I have seen Taiyan Prince!"

Yuan Miaoting first looked at Yayoi Utsu's bald head, and then at the black samurai uniform on Yayoi Utsu.

The smile on Utsuya Yayoi's face remained unchanged, "His Royal Highness is too worried. On the way to Dayan, the old man naturally covered up. The old man came to see His Royal Highness with his true colors, which is a respect for His Highness, Your Highness, don't worry!"

Yuan Miao's expression was slightly relaxed, she took two steps forward, and said with a smile: "That's good! It's not too late, the sword master of Udu should leave now? I'll let Lei Shen lead the way for you, and you go straight to Princess Zhenguo's mansion. Once you succeed, go away immediately! Otherwise, if the clan mansion finds out and surprises Da Zongzheng, you will be in trouble!"

Yayoi Utsu glanced at Thunder God Ren Hebin who was at the side, smiled and lowered her head, "His Royal Highness is considerate, I will listen to your arrangement!"

Yuan Miao laughed lightly, and looked at Ren Hebin.

"Thunder God! Lead the way for Udu Sword Master! Be careful in everything!"

Ren Hebin responded, and stretched out his hand to signal Utsu Yayoi to go first.

When the two left and only Yuan Miaoting and Liang Xiaoqing were left on the pavilion, Yuan Miaoting looked in the direction of the Seventh Princess' Mansion and said softly, "If fate is mine, then let Yayoi Utsu kill Li Zhongwu!"

Liang Xiaoqing bowed her head and responded: "Your Highness's destiny is of course! Since Utsu Yayoi dared to come to Dayan, he must be sure of victory! Your Highness, don't worry!"

What he said made Yuan Miao's heart feel a little more relaxed, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

……

Seven Princess Mansion.

The big bed in Yuan Miaoyu's bedroom.

Like a cat, Li Zhongwu stroked Yuan Miaoyu's beautiful hair lying in his arms, and asked softly: "You won't stay in the palace tonight, go back here to rest, aren't you afraid that someone will forcibly enter the palace tonight, and you won't be able to enter the palace tomorrow?"

Yuan Miaoyu closed her eyes and replied softly: "I can stay in the palace, but you are a son-in-law, Yu Li, before I ascend the throne, you can't stay in the palace. In the current situation, I can't sleep well without you by my side."

After a pause, she continued: "Besides, the imperial guards in the palace are already under my control. With Dong Jinpeng and Aunt Qin in the palace, no one can easily enter the palace. If someone really wants to take advantage of tonight to enter the palace, that's great too! This palace will just get rid of him in one fell swoop!"

Li Zhongwu smiled silently.

Then he asked, "Aunt Qin you're talking about is Qin Jingyu?"

Yuan Miaoyu: "Yes."

"You call her aunt?"

Li Zhongwu asked again.

Yuan Miaoyu: "Well, when my concubine mother was in the palace, I had some friendship with her. Now that my concubine mother is gone, she also takes good care of me. I accept her affection."

Li Zhongwu blinked, thinking that when he was in Binhai City, in order to test the strength of the seven priests, he took the initiative to attack Qin Jingyu and almost slashed her with a knife, suddenly he was a little annoyed, he didn't know how to get along with Qin Jingyu in the future.

Maybe we should try our best not to meet Qin Jingyu?

After a moment of silence, he asked again: "By the way, do you know what happened to Dong Jinpeng's Xinzhu Sword? He seems to be able to see through other people's thoughts?"

Yuan Miaoyu: "Yes, although he is a swordsman, the ability he has awakened since childhood is to read people's hearts. It is a bit like the ancient legend's "He Xintong". This ability allows him to always predict the opponent's moves in advance. He can always decipher the opponent's moves in advance, so his swordsmanship is particularly powerful, known as the heart-killing sword! However, this ability also makes him suffer."

Li Zhongwu: "How to say?"

Yuan Miaoyu: "Do you think being able to read people's hearts is really a good thing?"

Li Zhongwu understood what she meant a little bit.

Yuan Miaoyu: "People's hearts are unpredictable! Everyone has a dark side in their hearts. Even their biological parents may want to kill their children for a moment, let alone other people? Because Dong Jinpeng can see through people's hearts, he has seen a lot of sinister people since he was a child, so he has no friends, no lovers, and almost no relatives. Look at how thin he looks! It's not because of anything else, but because he knows the darkness in too many people's hearts. .”

Li Zhongwu: "..."

You can see through people's hearts since you were a child. It's been decades, and you still haven't gotten used to it?Still suffering every day?

Is this guy so kind at heart?

Li Zhongwu didn't quite believe it.

Because he thought to himself that if he could read people's hearts, he should have been numb after decades.

If it doesn't work, then find a place where there are no people, live alone, and don't deal with others, so naturally you can't see the dirty thoughts in other people's hearts.

"Why is he loyal to you? Don't you have dark thoughts in your heart?"

Before Li Zhongwu finished speaking, he felt his heart shrink suddenly, and a strong sense of danger came to his heart. He hadn't felt such a strong crisis warning for a long time.

"because……"

Just as Yuan Miaoyu answered two words, Li Zhongwu hugged her delicate body, his figure flashed, smashed through the gauze curtain on the bed, and came out through the window.

At the same time, a long and narrow blade light cut like lightning on the roof of the bedroom. The blade light cut down from the roof to the ground in an instant, and the blazing white blade light sank into the ground silently.

Then, the sound of roof tiles, wooden beams, and wall bricks breaking and collapsing was heard.

"Rumble..."

Half of the dormitory collapsed suddenly, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.

The faces of the guards who were guarding outside the palace changed drastically. Some immediately held the handle of the knife;

On the open space next to the smoky bedroom, Li Zhongwu held his wife Yuan Miaoyu's slender waist, looking with a livid face at a figure in black on the top of the pavilion not far away.

Under the moonlight, the forehead of the man in black reflected light, and he was obviously bald.

At this time, the bald man was holding the handle of the knife with both hands, the tip of the knife was facing down, and the sleeves of the black clothes fluttered gently in the gentle night wind. Li Zhongwu looked at him, and he also looked at Li Zhongwu.

This person is naturally Utsu Yayoi, the sword master of Shenfeng Kingdom.

Utsu Yayoi's expression was a bit surprised at this time, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Li Zhongwu? Sure enough, I have some skills. I didn't kill you with one knife, but you can't last a few times! Why don't you obediently let the old man cut off your head? That way, you die quickly, and the old man will spend less effort! How about it?"

"Utsuyayoi?"

Yuan Miaoyu's pupils shrank, and she recognized the identity of the bald old man at a glance.

"Yayoi Utsu? Another brat?"

The corner of Li Zhongwu's right eye twitched unnaturally, and his heart was very angry, not only because this guy was a little devil by his name.

What's more - tonight was the first time he spent the night with Yuan Miaoyu as a normal couple, but was destroyed by this old bald head.

May I ask who is not angry with this matter? (end of this chapter)
