Peerless Headmaster

Chapter 679

In Diziyuan, Murong Xi and the three elders gathered together.

With a somewhat helpless look on Murong Xi's face, he put down the messenger jade slip in his hand.

"Master, has there been any news from the lord?" Elder Luo asked involuntarily when he saw Murong Xi's expression was different.

Murong Xi sighed: "Ning Heng won't be coming back for a while."

Hearing this, the three elders looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

"An accident happened to Ning Heng, but the prince did not reveal the specifics, but he should be recuperating in the palace for several months." Murong Xi said.

When Elder Gu heard this, he became anxious: "Then Ning Heng won't be able to participate in the Fourth Court Competition?"

Murong Xi sighed.

The three elders looked at each other, feeling a little caught off guard.

It was fine before, why did something happen as soon as I went to the palace?And he has to spend several months in the palace to cultivate?Are the injuries really that serious?
Murong Xi said to the three elders: "Ning Heng can't participate, but we still need to prepare for the Grand Competition of the Fourth Academy. Let others improve themselves as much as possible during this time."

The three elders nodded one after another. Although Ning Heng did not participate, the Grand Competition of the Fourth Court will still be held as usual, and it is not because Ning Heng is missing in their local court.

After all, in the four-house competition this time, the real trump card of the Dizi Academy is Han Jingkun. Although Ning Heng is worth looking forward to, even if he participates in the four-house competition, it is estimated that he is unlikely to get a good result.

Of course, the three elders were even more curious about what happened to Ning Heng in the palace.

...

The forbidden area of ​​the imperial palace, deep in the bedroom.

The Empress Hongchen sat cross-legged, with the breath circulating all over her body, and the surrounding space seemed to be slightly distorted, which seemed to be affected by the Empress Hongchen's cultivation.

Qing'er stepped into the bedroom with light steps, came up to the Empress Hongchen, and said a word in a low voice.

The Empress Hongchen opened her eyes, and a hint of doubt flashed across her.

"He was injured in the North Lin Palace?"

Qing'er nodded: "The news from the Holy Court is indeed so."

Empress Hongchen was a little puzzled, Ning Heng is the adopted son of King Beilin now, how could he be seriously injured in the palace of Beilin King?This is really unreasonable.

"Is there any news from the palace?" the Hongchen Empress asked.

With the means of the Empress of the Red Dust, even a place like Beilin Wangfu naturally has her eyes and ears, and Wang Lianqingyun of Beilin probably knows it well, even if she knows that the emperor's eyes and ears are planted in her mansion, she will pretend not to see it Same.

This is a means of showing loyalty, so that the Hongchen Empress can be completely assured of herself.

If Lian Qingyun gets rid of all the spies in the palace, then the Hongchen Empress will definitely send someone to sneak in again, and it will arouse the suspicion of the Hongchen Empress.

Instead of making it like this, it is better for the two sides to maintain a delicate balance.

Qing'er replied: "There is no news in the palace, nothing happened."

The Hongchen Empress laughed when she heard the words: "Nothing happened in the palace? Ning Heng was seriously injured in the palace? This is interesting. Are our eyes and ears deceived, or the Holy Academy?"

Qing'er was a little surprised: "Is the king of Beilin going to do something?"

Empress Hongchen sneered: "He knows what he should do and what he shouldn't do, but you have to pay close attention and let me know whatever happens, especially Ning Heng, he can't have any accidents."

Qing'er responded, and then retreated.

The Hongchen empress continued to practice, but her mind was slightly in a trance.

Ning Heng has been away from the palace for several months, Lian Hongchen thought he would not think about Ning Heng, but Lian Hongchen still thinks of him from time to time.

Especially the absurd thing that happened with Ning Heng that time, made Lian Hongchen blush from time to time, hating and annoyed in his heart.

But more, it was still the kind of inexplicable feeling, which Lian Hongchen had never experienced before. She really wanted Ning Heng to return to the palace and appear in front of her eyes again.

But Lian Hongchen also knows very well that she cannot restrain Ning Heng, and her own affairs are more important, and she must not be immersed in the love between her children.

"Northern King, what are you going to do?" Lian Hongchen said inwardly.

...

In the palace, Lian Qingyun was sitting on the lobby, Xu Sansi was not there, only four of Lian Qingyun's most trusted masters of the palace stood around, and everyone looked a little dignified.

Not long after, Steward Liu lowered his head and came out of the lobby, followed behind him by the nervous prince Lian Qiyan.

Lian Qiyan was in a nervous mood, he didn't know why his father suddenly let him come over, he wondered if he was going to scold him again.

Peeking inside, Lian Qiyan's heart trembled, no matter how stupid he was, he could still feel that the atmosphere inside was very unusual.

Lian Qiyan was a little afraid to go in, and stood outside hesitating.

"Come in!"

Lian Qingyun shouted sharply, so frightened that Lian Qiyan almost didn't jump up.

There was no other way, Lian Qiyan could only bite the bullet and walk into the hall.

When he arrived in the hall, Lian Qiyan knelt down in front of Lian Qingyun and kowtowed to Lian Qingyun repeatedly.

Lian Qingyun didn't speak, just looked at Lian Qiyan like this, feeling very uncomfortable.

No matter how incompetent this person in front of him is, no matter how much he disappoints him, he is Lian Qingyun's son after all. If he really kills him, Lian Qingyun still harbors a bit of resentment in his heart.

But as a high-ranking person, you must have this kind of awareness, and you must not be soft when it is time to strike.

"I don't know what the father ordered the child to come here?" Lian Qiyan said, not daring to look at Lian Qingyun.

Lian Qingyun said in a deep voice: "I'm asking you for my father, have you ever done anything beneficial to the palace over the years?"

Lian Qiyan was startled when he heard the words, he didn't understand why his father suddenly asked this question.

However, Lian Qiyan also has self-knowledge, all these years he has caused troubles for the palace, and he has never done a decent job, so he still feels a little guilty in his heart.

Seeing that Lian Qiyan didn't speak, Lian Qingyun snorted and continued to ask: "When your elder brother was alive, how much did he do for the palace? Do you know?"

Lian Qiyan was speechless, when Lian Qifeng was alive, he made many contributions to the palace, whether it was fame or ability, he did not know how much better than Lian Qiyan.

Compared with Lian Qifeng, his Lian Qiyan is nothing.

Lian Qingyun's expression was cold, and he stared at Lian Qiyan deeply.

"You are the son of this king, but this king is completely disappointed in you. Everyone in the entire palace is extremely disappointed in you. No one wants you to be the son. What do you say, what should I do?"

Lian Qiyan suddenly raised his head, his face was full of astonishment.

"Father..."

Just as Lian Qiyan was about to speak, he saw Lian Qingyun wave his hand, and a master of the palace standing beside him immediately made a move, pressing Lian Qiyan to the ground.
