Swallowing the Emperor

Chapter 444 Borrowing a Knife
The night is dark.

Yunlan Kingdom Imperial Palace, Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Wearing a dragon robe with a jade belt around his waist, King Song Xiangyu of Yunlan put down the memorial in his hand and looked up to the outside of the palace. The figure of the second prince soon appeared in sight.

"Dispersed?"

Seeing the second prince, Song Xiangyu's expression remained unchanged, and he asked indifferently.

"It's gone."

"What's the gain?"

The second prince sat down on the chair next to Song Xiangyu, and said: "The story of our loss of 20 troops in the treasure hunt has spread. After all, it is nothing more than feeling that compared with their three kingdoms, our Yunlan has changed." Became the weakest one, lost the qualification to sit on an equal footing with them, and everyone wanted to get a share of the pie after their success."

The old emperor was not surprised, and said lightly: "Things that are expected, that's all?"

"There is one more thing about Merlin."

"Oh? Our Lord Protector? Tell me."

"Mo Lin went to the Boneyard not long ago to look for his mother. For some reason, he killed the sword emperor Aoki and Aoki Lange of the Aoki family. Aoki Takashi put on a posture of asking questions, and wanted to see our Song family. Attitude."

"Qingmu Lange was killed by Mo Lin? Interesting, how did you reply?" Song Xiangyu became interested.

"I let the Qingmu family handle it as they please, and our Song family will not get involved. This is a personal grievance between Mo Lin and the Qingmu family, and has nothing to do with the Song family."

"Heh, isn't Takashi Aoki mad?"

"Who says it's not, it's almost like flipping the table on the spot." The second prince said.

Song Xiangyu smiled lightly, and said: "Whether Qing Mulong lifts the table is a trivial matter, as long as it doesn't break the big event three months later, is there any news from Jiuyou Pass?"

The second prince shook his head: "No, everything is business as usual. According to Father's wishes, of the 30 troops commanded by Mu Hongwu, [-] were transferred to Xuelan Pass, and [-] were transferred to Baicheng. They are all elites from Jiuyou Pass. His generals have also been arranged, and all he needs is an imperial decree to transfer him back to the imperial city."

Song Xiangyu nodded: "Okay, Mu Hongwu is a rare handsome talent, unless it is absolutely necessary, try to win over if you can, but if necessary, you must be prepared to give up your soldiers to protect the handsome, after all, he has a blood feud with Beiman If we know that our Song family is a dark game played by the Northern Man faction in the Black Dragon Empire, we will turn against each other if we fail, so we need to reduce his troops in advance. Flowers?"

The second prince said: "Father's words are very true, but I am most worried about Mo Lin."

"Oh?"

"He quietly ran to the burial site, and killed a master of martial arts from the Aoki family, a genius disciple who was specially trained by the Aoki family. The Aoki family will definitely blame us for this enmity. Mu Hongwu is A martial artist, who is good at leading soldiers and fighting, is far behind in terms of strategy and strategy. He can see through his thoughts at a glance, but Mo Lin is different. Although he is young, his actions are unpredictable and unpredictable. what."

Song Xiangyu nodded slightly: "This Mo Lin is really difficult to figure out. He just came back from treasure hunting, his reputation is in the sky, and he has the support of all major families. If he wants to become king in Yunlan, it is not impossible, but the great opportunity is Giving up like this, it's rare for a strong Martial King to not have the ambition to match the cultivation base of the Martial King."

The second prince said: "If you say he has no ambition, he is also a ruthless master who must take revenge. Who would have thought that nearly 20 people from the three major sects would be killed in one day and one night? The most puzzling thing is that I sent him Afterwards, he didn’t leave any of the [-] elite soldiers behind. He seemed to want to draw a clear line with our Song family. After entering Chang’an City, he began to build a large-scale construction project, and built the entire Chang’an like a castle. You said, what did he do? Who are they guarding against? Against us?"

Song Xiangyu was silent for a moment, and said: "No, if we really guard against us, there is no need to accept the title of Duke Protector. However, Mo Lin is nothing to be afraid of. If he dares to spoil our affairs, he will kill him. Thanks to him There is no rebellion, otherwise, it would have been a corpse long ago, and the emperor is most worried about the Black Dragon Scroll, if it falls into the hands of the empire, the consequences will be disastrous."

The second prince said: "Impossible, if the Black Dragon Scroll really fell into the hands of the empire, there would have been actions already, two years have passed, and the situation is still calm, it means that the Tianchi family has not received any news, otherwise, how could they bear it?" So far? The spies of the empire have not heard anything."

"I hope so."

"Father, my son always feels that keeping Mo Lin will be a disaster sooner or later. Now that he has caused such a big trouble in the Boneyard, why not take the opportunity to teach him a lesson and kill his vigor, what do you think?"

Song Xiangyu thought for a while, "You want to borrow a knife to kill someone?"

The second prince nodded, "There are at least three knives that can be borrowed from the Boneyard, and they are all good knives."

……

……

Ever since he came back from the treasure hunt and was granted the title of Lord Protector of Yunlan, Mo Lin's fame has spread throughout the entire Yunlan Kingdom. Even the Eighteen Kingdoms under the Black Dragon Empire know that Yunlan has produced someone who is even more astonishing than the Seven Great Talents. Cultivate genius.

But no one could understand what Mo Lin did.

He brought Yunlan's [-] army to destroy the three major sects. Many people thought that he would take these three sects for himself and take the opportunity to develop his own power. He threw away the three residences of thousands of excellent cultivation caves.

Back in Chang'an City, as the Grand Duke of a country, everyone thought that Mo Lin's first task was to recruit soldiers, at least to form a personal guard of ten thousand people first, but he didn't expect that Mo Lin would recruit either a blacksmith or a craftsman. When Chang'an City was about to be built into an impregnable castle, most of the craftsmen and blacksmiths in the city were transferred away overnight.

There was news that these craftsmen had all gone to the Boneyard, and Mo Lin wanted to establish a foothold in the Boneyard, and this guy was like a headless goshawk flying around like the Lord Protector, which made people do not understand.

At this time, Mo Lin was drinking tea with Ye Tunjing in Ye Mansion.

The steaming hot tea was completely cold, but Ye Tunjing didn't take a sip. His heart was colder than the cold tea.

"How is this possible? It's really surprising that the four kingdoms of Yunlan colluded with Beiman to rebel."
