Chapter 521 Harem tricks
Bailiqi heard this, glared at the tiger's eyes, raised his hand and shouted coldly: "Please!"
The reason why Bailiqi lost to Ting Sheng and the others before was because of Mei Changsu's order. Now he is fighting with Wu Lang, he has no intention of showing mercy.
"call out!"
The moment Bailiqi finished his words, Wu Lang's figure disappeared from the spot, turned into a black shadow and rushed towards Bailiqi. The blood phoenix in his hand brought cold lights and cut it towards his head.
"Swish swish swish swish..."
Facing Wu Lang's quick figure, Bai Liqi, who is not good at light skills, has no resistance and cannot touch the corner of Wu Lang's clothes at all.
In the shocked eyes of everyone, the afterimage surrounding Bailichi quickly dissipated, but Bailichi, who was originally bearded, had all his beards shaved off by Wu Lang.
Meng Zhi, who was standing beside Emperor Liang, couldn't help but shout, "What a light skill!"
Among everyone present, only Meng Zhi could barely see Wu Lang's movements, so he could better understand Wu Lang's light skills.
"I...my beard..."
After Bailiqi felt the cool breeze coming from his face, he subconsciously reached out and touched his face. When he found that his beard had been shaved by Wu Lang, he said to himself with a distraught face: "I lost..."
Although Bailiqi is good at hard skills and can withstand ordinary swords, if Wu Lang really wants to kill him, as long as he stabs the dagger in his hand into his eyes, he will definitely die.
Bailich didn't think Wu Lang could shave his beard, but he couldn't hurt his eyes, so he simply gave in.
After Emperor Liang came to his senses from his surprise, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, okay, do you think the Baili Warriors still have to continue participating in the competition?"
When the envoy of Northern Yan heard this, he sighed secretly, bent down to Emperor Liang and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the wise king is very skilled in martial arts, and the foreign ministers are convinced!"
The reason why the envoy of Northern Yan was shameless just now asked Bai Liqi to continue participating in the competition was because the other candidates were not Bai Liqi's opponents, and he still had hope of marrying Princess Nihuang.
But now Bailiqi has been defeated head-on by Wu Lang, and Wu Lang is also one of the top ten candidates, so naturally Bailiqi has no need to stay.
When Emperor Liang saw the envoy of Northern Yan, he was convinced and said with a smile: "The envoy has been awarded too much. In fact, the Baili Warrior is indeed very strong, but my son in Daliang is even better!"
Compared to Wu Lang defeating Bailiqi, what Emperor Liang is actually happier is that Princess Nihuang finally got married. Since Wu Lang can defeat Bailiqi, it is naturally no problem to defeat Princess Nihuang.
...
After the banquet, Emperor Liang was in a good mood and called Wu Lang to the Shangju Hall and pulled him to play chess. The queen sent someone to invite Princess Nihuang to Zhengyang Palace.
At this banquet, Wu Lang defeated Bailiqi head-on, so it would be a foregone conclusion that he would marry Princess Nihuang, so the queen planned to take the opportunity to win her over.
Originally, the queen planned to invite Wu Lang to Zhengyang Palace with her, but Wu Lang was called by Emperor Liang to play chess, so she invited Princess Nihuang alone.
Unfortunately, what the queen didn't know was that Mei Changsu reminded Princess Nihuang in advance that someone in the harem wanted to harm her, so once someone invited her to the banquet alone, he had to be careful.
Therefore, when Princess Nihuang arrived at Zhengyang Palace, she was always on guard against the queen. Instead, she subconsciously ignored Concubine Yue who Wen Xun arrived, and followed Concubine Yue to Zhaoren Palace.
Wu Lang, who was playing chess with Emperor Liang in the living hall, thought about the direction of his next move, while secretly thinking: "Calculate the time, the two little palace maids I arranged should have seen Mei Changsu, right?"
According to the original plot, although Mei Changsu received news in advance that someone in the harem wanted to deal with Princess Nihuang, he didn't know who planned to deal with Princess Nihuang?
Especially when Mei Changsu heard that the queen sent someone to invite the princess to the Zhengyang Palace for a banquet, he subconsciously thought that the queen was going to deal with Princess Nihuang.
In the end, it was because Yan Yujin said casually that he wanted to play polo with Liao Tingjie, which made Mei Changsu realize that it was the prince and Concubine Yue who wanted to deal with Princess Nihuang.
However, according to the current situation, it is a foregone conclusion that Princess Nihuang married Wu Lang, so he naturally would not let Princess Nihuang really fall into crisis, and it is even more impossible to put her hope on Yan Yujin.
Wu Lang seems to have not intervened in the court in recent years, but he has put a lot of spies in the palace, and the movements of Emperor Liang and the concubines of each palace cannot escape his eyes and ears.
Therefore, just as Mei Changsu and Xiao Jingrui were about to leave the palace, the two palace maids arranged by Wu Lang seemed to have passed by and chatted, saying that they saw the prince bringing Sima Lei into the palace. This sentence also made Mei Changsu react instantly.
Of course, with Wu Lang's ability, he could save Princess Nihuang by himself, and by the way, let Prince Mu's mansion owe him a favor.
But soon Princess Nihuang will marry Wu Lang, so naturally there is no need for him to let Prince Mu's mansion owe him a favor.
What's more, Wu Lang doesn't want to show his desire to fight for the throne too early. It's better for Mei Changsu to assist Prince Jing first to defeat Prince Yu, and then Wu Lang will get rid of Prince Jing, so that he can ascend to the throne without any effort.
Although Mei Changsu is called the "Qilin Talent", he is just a mortal after all. The reason why he was able to play with King Yu and the Prince was because he planned for twelve years in advance and hid his true identity.
To be honest, Wu Lang actually admires Mei Changsu very much, but everyone has different positions, so he can only become an opponent in the end, not a true friend.
It was like the Red Flame Army destroyed the Hua clan under the order of Emperor Liang, and then Princess Xuan Ji of the Hua clan hooked up with Xia Jiang again and planned the "Red Flame Army's rebellion case". With the help of Emperor Liang's suspicion of Lin Xie, the entire Red Flame Army was destroyed.
Perhaps for Daliang, the Chiyan Army was indeed a loyal army, but for the Hua tribe, they were invading demons, so it was normal for Princess Xuan Ji to take revenge on them.
If the two sides have different positions, they will naturally be different, and they cannot be described as simple right or wrong.
Now, in order to reverse the case of the Chiyan Army, Mei Changsu is also indispensable to implicating some innocent people, and the descendants of these people may also seek revenge on Mei Changsu in the future.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
