Chapter 97 Wise Decision

At the main entrance of the Daxia Palace, Xiang Liurou, who still had no choice but to hold the idle position of palace gate captain, yawned lazily, sat down on the pillar under a huge stone pillar in front of the door, and looked around feebly.

Xing Tianzhu and the Xing Tianzhu brothers passed by on his mount and glanced at him. When they turned the corner, Xiang Liurou spit out a thick mouthful of phlegm on the ground and cursed in a low voice: "What's the air?"

?It’s not certain who is in power in the Xingtian family. Uncle Xiang Liu, I’m down and out now, but didn’t the head of the family promise that I would at least be a member of the family’s real power in the future?”

Thinking of this, Xiang Liurou suddenly became proud again, crossed her legs and shook her feet a few times, and boasted comfortably to several subordinate palace guards around her: "Look, they say that every generation of my Xiang Liu family is inferior.

The Xingtian family is full of talented people. But this also has its advantages. I wonder how harmonious each generation of brothers in the Liu family is? The Xingtian family has more talents. Each generation fights to the death, but in the end, doesn't it hurt the brotherhood? Those

Isn't it pitiful that the defeated ones can only squat and graze in remote tribal lands?"

As soon as the word 'poor' came out of his mouth, a tall figure wrapped in purple thunder suddenly rolled over from the end of the street facing the palace gate like a strong wind. He kicked Xiang Liurou hundreds of feet away and hit her like a cannonball.

After entering the forbidden area at the main entrance of the palace, she hit a Nine-Tripod. The force was so strong that Xiang Liurou was kicked until a mouthful of blood spurted out. She stuck to the foot of the Nine-Tripod like a piece of wet bread for a long time.

Then it slowly slid down.

The palace guards were all frightened, and quickly pointed their weapons at the purple figure. But the man didn't even look at the soldiers, and ran towards the stone pillar where Xiang Liurou was just now.

The nine-foot-tall purple-black copper 'King of Shocking Bell' hit the big bell with ninety-nine punches in a row. The tyrannical witchcraft power shook the heavy big bell, and the 'King of Shocking Bell' suddenly appeared with a series of punches.

The purple-black light emitted a huge roar that made the entire Anyi City tremble.

The sound of the bell sounded like thunder, with an extremely harsh and penetrating crackling sound spreading in all directions. Even though the space restrictions of those witchcraft had sealed the entire Daxia Palace, this sound could still spread throughout the country.

The entire palace woke up everyone in the palace. A moment later, a witch guard wearing a blood-red robe suddenly ran out of the palace in a hurry and shouted gloomily: "Who dares to ring the 'King's Alarm Bell'? What's the matter?

I have something important to report? Ah? Is it the Ninth Prince?"

Lu Gui, who was in a state of rage, without saying a word, tapped the witch guard on the heart with a sweet kick, and kicked the unprepared witch guard away. Then he screamed wildly and hurried away.

The arriving Black Tiger and nearly a thousand trusted black-armored guards rushed into the Daxia Palace like a tide. The guards guarding the palace gate saw that something was wrong and just wanted to stop Lu Gui's subordinates, but they were nowhere to be found.

The opponents of Lu Gui's elite black-armored soldiers? More than a hundred guards were knocked unconscious, and more than a thousand black-armored soldiers swarmed in.

Xiang Liurou, who had just slipped off the tripod, climbed up tremblingly, pointed at Lu Gui with a trembling finger and shouted: "Hun Tianhou, are you crazy? You led your soldiers into the palace, do you want to rebel? You

, you are crazy, crazy, you must be, ah!" Before Xiang Liurou could finish expressing his views on Lu Gui's current mental state, the black tiger had already stepped on Xiang Liurou's head and put it on his head.

His head stepped into the stone slabs on the ground, causing him to faint again.

'Dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang' from

The personal guards rushed towards the palace. Each of them was extremely strong and ran very fast. As soon as the 'King's Shocking Bell' rang ninety-nine times, these important ministers of Great Xia had already

He led the people to the gate of the palace.

As soon as he saw the hundreds of guards lying in disorder at the entrance of the palace, Xing Tiane shouted angrily: "Who is so bold as to attack the palace of Daxia? Is he going to die? Come here, mobilize the army and surround the palace for me."

Go up. The other masters will follow me into the palace to protect the king!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xing Tian Dafeng squeezed his way from the crowd to Xing Tiane, slapped Xing Tiane's arm hard to attract Xing Tiane's attention, and then he leaned into Xing Tiane's ear and whispered: "Master, Jiu

Prince Lu Gui was attacked by more than a thousand Hu Jie swordsmen and Dongyi archers in the red leaf forest a hundred miles south of the city. Hundreds of guards were killed. Lu Gui himself was seriously injured and almost died. If the children and others had not arrived in time, Lu Gui would have died.

His entire army has been wiped out. Now the few surviving Hu Jie people are behind them."

"Huh?"

Death. Ridiculous, why are you so ignorant? Can such a living person be left alive?" He pushed Xing Tian Dafeng into the crowd with a fierce hand, and Xing Tian'e immediately changed his face to a loyal and patriotic one, howling "angry"

He said: "Thief, where can you escape?" He flicked his long beard, pulled out a heavy black stone knife, and rushed into the palace at the head of the horse.

Xia Jie saw it funny. The heads of the Wu family were all shouting loudly and "desperately" guarded by hundreds of elite wizards. They waved their weapons and rushed into the palace with "big strides", looking for

They are looking at those "rebellious ministers and traitors" who dare to clash with the palace. These family heads all know that the person who dares to attack the palace of Daxia is definitely not Shan Bie'er, so there is no need for him to rush forward and take risks? Only Xing Tian'e knows that it is Lu Gui who rushes into the palace.

, then he seemed extremely loyal, throwing away all the guards and striding to the front.

On the top step of the main hall of the Great Xia Palace, King Xia, who was randomly wrapped in a robe, frowned and looked at Lu Gui with a ferocious face as he rushed over with more than a thousand people. He even saw Xing Tiane leading the way.

Countless Wu family ministers were running at least a hundred paces behind, more than ten miles behind. They couldn't help but nodded heavily, and suddenly shouted angrily at Lu Gui: "Old Jiu, are you crazy or have you been hit by a witch?"

Curse? Why did you come to the palace with your own soldiers? Do you want to kill your father?"

Before Lu Gui could say anything, King Xia simply punched and waved his hand at the soldiers behind Lu Gui who were walking down the hundreds of steps. Suddenly, the invisible air hit the soldiers like a big mountain, causing nearly half of the black soldiers to die on the spot.

Guard A suddenly exploded into a pulp and spewed hundreds of feet away. Hundreds of witch guards also suddenly flashed out in the air, guarding King Xia. They stared with cold eyes and suddenly stopped.

Lu Gui. The dozens of witch guards at the front have already floated their powerful witchcraft in front of them. If Lu Gui and the others dare to take a step closer, they will activate their strongest witchcraft.

"Huh huh huh!" King Xia sneered a few times proudly, then slowly looked at Lu Gui and shouted: "Last night I waited for the father and son to have a party all night long, but this morning you just returned to your military city, but you went back to An What are you doing? Lu Gui, even if you want to lead an army into the palace, kill your father, and ascend the throne yourself, you can't just come with a thousand old and weak soldiers!"

King Xia sat on the top step and looked at the livid-faced Lu Gui and said leisurely: "Furthermore, don't you know that my father has inherited the inheritance from the Royal Court of Great Xia and is so powerful that he is close to the position of a god? Isn’t that beyond your imagination? Why do you still do this risky thing?”

The muscles on Lu Gui's face twitched, and he suddenly shouted loudly: "Father, I have no intention to offend you. However, this time Lu Gui returned to Dingnan City and was assassinated by more than a thousand assassins. All the guards around him died, and Lu Gui himself was seriously injured and on the verge of death. , father, can you tell Lu Gui whether Lu Gui has lost his father's favor? If his father wanted Lu Gui to die, then according to the laws of Daxia, Lu Gui would be convicted. As soon as the army attacked, Lu Gui would naturally be defeated and die. But why use such low-level tactics?"

His face suddenly turned cold. King Xia jumped down hundreds of steps and slapped Lu Gui on the face. He pointed at Lu Gui and cursed: "I fucked your mother. I want to kill you, so why use assassins?" ?Do you think that once your wings are hardened, you can fly as high as that pterosaur, and your father will not be able to do anything to you? You still want to use assassins? You are insulting your father!" King Xia twisted his face and leaned on his feet. In front of Gui, Lu Gui roared loudly, spitting on Lu Gui's face: "Whoever my father wants to kill must die, why use assassins?"

"Then, father, who has the authority to deploy an army of more than a thousand people near Anyi City to attack me? If it's not you, is it the Zhongtian Hou of Zhongzhou? Or the Anyi Order of Anyi? Or, who is mine? Brother?" Lu Gui's eyes flashed with the same crazy and fierce light as King Xia's eyes, and he roared loudly. He was so stingy, as if King Xia sprayed saliva on his face, spraying more The saliva sprayed on King Xia's face.

King Xia suddenly became quiet. He looked at Xing Tian'e, who was waving a stone knife and killed him first, and said calmly: "Xing Tian'e, very good, you are the most loyal to me. However, it is hard to say. Who can say that this is not what you want?" You want to deliberately show your loyalty to me? Of course, I don't mind, at least you are much better than the family masters who are protected by personal soldiers." King Xia pushed away Lu Gui with one hand and faced Xiang Liubi and the family masters. Roaring: "You guys, don't you have the strength of Jiuding? You are still hiding behind a group of pitiful Wuwu! You bunch of worthless cowards!"

Fang Fengyi and Shen Gong Li Gaga smiled dryly as they squeezed out from among their personal guards. They just laughed and said: "This is because the children are too worried about our safety. This is not our original intention, Your Majesty. Who is it?" Do you know who dares to attack the palace? If the same sea people attack last time, some of their weapons will pose a threat to our Jiuding Great Witch."

However, Xiang Liubi was very smart and did not dwell on this issue. He smiled, looked at Xing Tian'er and said, "How can we compare with the head of Xing Tian's family? His combat power is the best in Anyi. Well, Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince, don’t know, what is the purpose of today’s incident? Could it be that the Ninth Prince doesn’t know that if he leads an army into the palace privately, he will be beheaded?”

With an angry roar, Lu Gui yelled at Xiang Liuhui: "If I don't lead my bodyguards into the palace, I'm afraid I won't be able to see my father!"

"Chacha" twice, Lu Gui casually tore up the robe he had just changed, revealing countless dark and deep marks all over his body. Rao Shixin expelled the poison and healed Lu Gui's injuries, so what?

The poison still left traces on Lu Gui's body that would take time to fade away. Now he was just using it to explain the critical situation he had just encountered to the important ministers of Great Xia present. Lu Gui pointed at all the traces on his body and said angrily.

He said: "Just a hundred miles outside Anyi City, as the ninth prince of Daxia, I was almost hacked to death. What does this mean?"

"Hey!" Xing Tiane suddenly laughed. He took a few steps back, pointed at Xiang Liu and said, "Your Majesty, although I, Xing Tiane, am in charge of the Great Xia Military Headquarters, I am also responsible for the daily patrols inside and outside Zhongzhou.

However, Xiang Liuhui is now in charge of the administration of Daxia, and he has nothing to do with me, Xing Tiane. If something happens to the Ninth Prince this time, the person responsible is Xiang Liuhui!"

Xia Jie mingled in the crowd, holding Bai with one hand to prevent Bai from moving, and carefully circling Qi Xin's waist with the other, lest she suddenly become angry after being squeezed in the crowd and being taken advantage of, and looked at Xing Tian'e with relish

He directly put the responsibility for Lu Gui's attack on Xiang Liuhou. Xia Jie thought to himself, when he first came to Anyi, wasn't Xiang Liurou the official responsible for the daily security of Anyi City under the Zhisi?

It seems that Liu Bo really has something to do with this matter.

Xiang Liuzuo's expression suddenly changed. He squinted at Xing Tian'e and said, "The affairs around Anyi were originally in charge of the Guizhi Division. However, in recent days, the Western Expeditionary Army returned to Anyi, and the surrounding towns

Neduo is a sergeant in the legion under Wang Ling." He turned to the King of Xia and bowed: "Your Majesty, Mingjian, there were situations like this in the past. When soldiers from the legion under Wang Ling were favored by the king and allowed them to leave the military camp to enjoy themselves, Zhi Si

The patrol teams to which I belong are all responsible for taking back Anyi."

"So, who should be responsible for the attack on Lu Gui?" King Xia's anger suddenly disappeared, and a mysterious light flashed in his eyes.

Over there, Pan Yi hurriedly ran over, followed closely by the pale and weak-looking Zhu. There was a dense layer of sweat beads on the foreheads of the two brothers, and their eyes were chattering around.

Before they could speak, Xia Jie could tell that these two boys had something going on in their minds. Especially Pan Gui, who was even more unbearable. He didn't dare to look at Lu Gui with his eyes. Didn't this clearly tell others that he

Do you know what happened?

"Did Ninth Brother be attacked? Who did it? Who has such courage? How dare you commit an attack near Anyi City? You actually assassinated my royal family of Daxia!" Before Pan Yao even got closer, a series of urgent questions had already appeared.

He came out. But the crowd around him didn't make a sound. His questions were like a few white foam rising on the dark sea before the storm. In an instant, they turned into nothingness and drifted away.

His face suddenly became ugly.

Xia Jie threw his broad shoulders to both sides, and immediately squeezed out of the crowd. With a "squeak", Bai quickly jumped on his shoulders. Qi Xin snorted coldly, shook up his hands, and simply pulled out the guards of the important ministers around him.

He knocked over a large piece of it and followed Xia Jie out.

The silver light in King Xia's eyes flickered, and he stared at Xia Jie deeply: "Xia Jie, do you think you know who assassinated Lu Gui?"

An extremely greedy and obscene fierce light burned fiercely from the depths of Xia Wang's eyes, and swayed fiercely on Qi Xin's face, but this fierce look was quickly extinguished like a candle in a hurricane. King Xia instinctively withdrew his gaze from Qi Xin's face and stared at Xia Jie's dark yellow face.

There was a bit of anger on Qi Xin's face, and she glared at King Xia threateningly. She suddenly grabbed Bai, held him in her hand and rubbed him for a while, making dozens of weird faces. Poor guy. The two white cheeks were stretched into long lengths, and he could only stick out his tongue, grinning, and suddenly spit a mouthful of foam towards King Xia. There was a little bit of witchcraft hidden in the foam, and the castration was accurate and fast. , it hit King Xia's eyebrows like a projectile.

The witch guards around King Xia were furious, and were about to teach the disrespectful Pixiu, but King Xia turned slightly, avoided the spitting mouth, and stopped the witch guards. "Xia Jie, Do you know who assassinated Lu Gui? How do you know this?" King Xia didn't even look at Bai who was making countless faces, or in other words, he didn't dare to look at the person who forced Bai to make faces.

"Brother Xingtian and I led the army to rescue the Ninth Prince. When I waited, the Ninth Prince was almost dead." Xia Jie calmly recounted what happened this morning, then shrugged and curled his lips. The livid faces of Pan Ju and He glanced at each other and said calmly: "It's just strange that outside Anyi City, more than a thousand people from Hu Jie and the Dongyi people can gather. Those sergeants who are enjoying themselves near Anyi City are actually not there. Did you find this unusual movement?"

Before King Xia could speak, Xia Jie asked again in a very curious tone: "I, Xia Jie, find it even more strange. The ninth prince said that he accompanied the king to a banquet all night at the palace last night. After the banquet, he led his guards back to his palace. Military City, but who could know the whereabouts of the Ninth Prince so well and just happen to ambush him in that red leaf forest? It’s really weird and strange.”

Lu Gui's eyes suddenly popped out, he took a few steps forward and shouted angrily: "Father, someone wants to kill me!"

King Xia waved his hand at Lu Gui impatiently and said angrily: "Nonsense, don't you know that someone wants to kill you? Do you think that I am blind? Why are you still naked? Don't you know how to wear a robe?" Eyeballs After chattering for a long time, King Xia suddenly poked Xia Jie in the heart with his finger, frowned and asked, "What is your current status in Li Wu Palace?"

Qi Xin caressed Bai's little head lazily, rolled Bai's eyelids and made an extremely ridiculous face, and said coldly: "Xia Jie is now the tenth witch of our Li Witch Palace. What do you think, Your Majesty? He is It is pure earthly witchcraft, and I think your Majesty will understand its value to our Li Wu Palace."

"The tenth imperial witch? How is this possible? Any witch palace only has three priest witches, nine imperial witches, and twenty-seven life witches. How can you, the Li witch palace, have ten imperial witches?" King Xia stopped pursuing it. The assassination of Lu Gui became a matter of concern because of Xia Jie's current identity. However, it was very surprising, surprising, and a little angry, as if someone was angry that someone dared to break the traditional rules and shouted loudly, King Xia actually Still didn't look at Qi Xin.

Qi Xin glanced at King Xia and said coldly: "Xia Jie is the tenth royal wizard of Li Wu Palace. Does your Majesty have any dissatisfaction? If you are dissatisfied, you can go to me, the leader of Li Wu Palace and the three sacrificial wizards or others. The masters of the major halls and even the leader of the Heavenly Witch Cult are trying to instigate you. The king is in charge of the royal court. What does this matter in the witch sect have to do with the king?" Two faint green lights began to flash in Li Wu's eyes. , she asked King Xia as if suddenly enlightened: "Is it possible that the king is unwilling to pursue the matter of Lu Gui's assassination? Then I might as well help the king kill Lu Gui."

All the important ministers of Great Xia around felt chills all over. If the person in Jiuzhou who dared to speak to the King of Xia in such a tone and tone was not short-sighted, then among the entire Jiuzhou, there was no one who was sane but had the courage to do this. The total number of people who talked to King Xia could not exceed twenty. However, this cute, cold little girl didn't look like that kind of person. There was a flash of weirdness in the eyes of some important ministers that deserved discussion. Their expressions, they looked at Xia Jie, looking up and down carefully: Did they not expect that this lucky barbarian, whose status has been rising rapidly recently, actually likes to play with that kind of petite woman who is delirious? This is really a weird quirk.

But when Lu Gui heard Qi Xin's cold words, he jumped up like crazy and tore the robe he had just put on into pieces. "Father, if you really want me, Lu Gui If you die, then you should do it yourself! Lu Gui somehow offended his father and actually made himself lose his favor! Could it be that Lu Gui led the army to open up and expand the territory of Daxia for me, is it wrong?"

King Xia's eyes rolled around for a while, and he didn't say anything for a long time. Only a heavy and violent look appeared on his face little by little. Now, he didn't want to talk too much about Xia Jie's status in Li Wu Palace.

There was silence in the square in front of the main hall for a long time, and then King Xia suddenly snorted coldly: "Xia Jie, you went to rescue Lu Gui. It was you who led your soldiers to rescue Lu Gui. Well, Tang, am I asking you for help?" "

Xia Jie bowed: "Yes, Your Majesty, Tang and I have some friendship. The place where they were attacked was a hundred miles outside Anyi City, but still hundreds of miles away from Dingnan City. Tang naturally came to ask for help from me. It's convenient." Xia Jie straightened up and looked at King Xia. He didn't know why King Xia asked such a question. Is this King Xia just old and confused? He didn't pursue the matter of his son who was almost killed. Being entangled in some side issues really puzzled Xia Jie.

He laughed a few times. King Xia stared at Xing Tian'e and said with a smile: "Fu Gong, Lu Gui was attacked. Lu Gui's friend Shang Tang actually asked your deacon for help. Well, he rushed into Anyi City , but did not directly ask for help from the city guards at the gate of Anyi City. This matter is worthy of discussion."
