Tianlong Sword Guanghan

Chapter 70 69. It's no joke

"My God!"

Helian Tieshu let out a miserable cry, and tried his best to smile at Mu Wanqing and the others who were sitting in the main hall having tea, and then grabbed Li Xiaoyao's sleeve, ignoring Li Xiaoyao's fierce flames in the past, and pulled Li Xiaoyao He dragged it to the side hall.

"Young Master Li, Big Brother Li, Grandpa Li..."

Li Xiaoyao stared, and said angrily: "Old He, why are you swearing? Your grandfather!"

Helian Tieshu bowed his hands and said, "How about I call you grandpa? You are my own grandpa. Please, please take away these disaster stars from Dali."

Li Xiaoyao saw that his expression of anxiety and panic did not seem to be fake, and said strangely: "Old He, you are also the general of the Western Xia Conquest, why are you so timid? You even entertained me, 'One Sword Town Xirong', this Dali The envoy of the country stayed in your house for a few days, but you are afraid of this?"

Helian Tieshu said with tears: "My God, the Empress Dowager admits that you are the nephew of the Empress Dowager's natal family, even His Majesty has to pinch his nose to recognize you as a cousin. But what kind of envoy from the Dali Kingdom is this? This is obviously the emissary of the underworld!

My Majesty is now widely distributing announcements to select a son-in-law.As courtiers, we should be of the same mind with His Majesty, impartial, how can we openly have close contacts with one party?What's more, you still have to use that princess to disguise as a man to choose a son-in-law, if His Majesty knows that this female son-in-law walked out of my house.There are 28 people in my family, and I will see Hades before three quarters in the afternoon! "

He hugged Li Xiaoyao's arm tightly, and said with tears in his eyes, "Uncle Li, for the sake of the hard work I have done for you, please do me a favor. Let me live." I don't know why With such a huge force, Li Xiaoyao used five parts of his strength, but he couldn't break the Helian Iron Tree.

He sighed and said: "Old He, don't play tricks, your emperor is not a fool, how could he kill your whole family because of such a trivial matter? In my opinion, the most is to punish you for the crime of deceiving the emperor."

Helian Tieshu gushed blood, rushed straight to the sky, and blurted out: "Grandpa, just pay it back! How can I, one day, be able to underestimate the crime of deceiving the emperor so much?" He hugged Li Xiaoyao's thigh, Lying on the ground and rolling around, I just don't want to have any contact with the Dali envoy.

Li Xiaoyao was overwhelmed, pulled him up, and asked, "You idiot, don't you know how to report today's events to your emperor?" Helian Tieshu glanced at the black iron sword in his hand, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, Yizheng said: "Who does Brother Li think I am, Old He? How could I do such a thing as betraying my friend and making a secret report?"

Li Xiaoyao was too lazy to expose him, and said: "They are indeed the Dali Mission, and they are going to come to Lingzhou. You just go and report to your emperor. Just say that the princess heard that Xixia was choosing a son-in-law, and she was very curious. , I want to dress up as a man and go to see it. If you have passed the road of enlightenment, you can be regarded as a meritorious service for entertaining the envoys of allies. What are you afraid of?"

Helian Tieshu knew that although he was narrow-minded at ordinary times, he never talked nonsense in major matters, so he asked urgently: "So, Dali won't choose a son-in-law?" Li Xiaoyao said: "That's right, the son of Prince Zhennan of Dali has found a man he likes. , is also a descendant of your empress dowager's natal family, and she will never come to choose a son-in-law. So this princess is very curious and wants to see it. You don't have to be afraid."

Helian Tieshu immediately changed his face and said, "What am I afraid of? What do I have to be afraid of, the great General Xixia Zhengdong? Since this Princess Wanqing is your sister, she is also my sister. If she stays here, she will be my sister." Stay at home, let me see who dares to talk nonsense!"

With his head held high and his chest held high, he yelled all the way to summon the butler to arrange board and lodging for Mu Wanqing and the others.He hurriedly changed his official uniform again, and went into the palace to meet the emperor without mentioning it.

Li Xiaoyao, Mu Wanqing, Gao Shengtai and others gathered in Gao Shengtai's room, and he said to Zhu Danchen, "Brother Zhu, this Helian Tieshu looks a bit useless, that's because he's 'Yipintang' was beaten up by me." Three or four times, I was backed by his queen mother, and he really had nothing to do with me.

But this person is insidious and cunning, he can endure and be ruthless, so don't underestimate him.Just like what we discussed earlier, you will follow Helian Tieshu's path and go in to make trouble for Murong Fu in the name of gaining insight.I am now going to find the queen mother and princess of his family, and severely discredit the Murong family's ugly face.

If this matter goes well, it's fine, if it's difficult to succeed, then I can't care much about it.At that time, no matter what I do, you all have to cling to Helian Iron Tree and drag him into the water together. In order to protect himself, he will try his best to excuse you. "

Gao Shengtai said in a deep voice: "Mr. Li, this matter involves the safety of the world, please don't take risks at will, we can always find a way." Li Xiaoyao nodded and said: "I can save it." He turned to Gao Shengtai , Mu Wanqing and the others clasped their fists together and said: "Everyone take care, from today onwards, I will not see you again, lest something will happen in time, which will hurt everyone and damage the diplomatic relations between Dali and Xixia. If it is self-defeating, then But it's very bad."

Gao Shengtai clasped his fists and said, "Young Master Li, take care." Li Xiaoyao stopped talking, and went through the window and over the wall.

The night was dark and the wind was high, Li Xiaoyao performed lightness kung fu, passed through the house and the wall, and sneaked into the Xixia Palace in a short time.He has been here many times, and now he seems to be returning home, first avoiding the patrolling guards, and then swaggering through the imperial garden.He found a small courtyard where Li Qiushui used to live, climbed over the wall and entered, and saw that the house was dimly lit and there was no one around.

On weekdays, when Li Qiushui lived here, he mostly meditated and practiced at night, so it was the same.Li Xiaoyao didn't think much about it, so he knocked lightly on the door and said, "Uncle Master, I have something to see."

After he finished speaking, there was a soft cry in the room, and the lights were suddenly extinguished. In the dead of night, there was even a faint sound of drawing a sword.Li Xiaoyao frowned, and knocked on the door again, but there was no sound in the room.He said softly: "Who is in the house? He actually stole into the Queen Mother's residence?"

There was still no one answering in the room, Li Xiaoyao listened attentively, the person in the room was breathing softly and thinly, without any sound of breathing and hesitation, it was obvious that he was cultivating extremely superb internal strength, but this method of responding to the enemy was full of mistakes and omissions, obviously He is a young boy who has never been in the rivers and lakes.

He couldn't help laughing when he saw that the other party was determined to ambush him in the house.Holding the black iron sword in his hand, he lightly tapped the long sword on the door, and when the internal force passed, the door bolt was broken by him, and the door slowly opened.Li Xiaoyao took a step forward, a flash of sword light burst out from the left, the man stabbed Li Xiaoyao's ear with the sword as hard as he could, when the long sword pierced halfway, the man's wrist trembled, and the tip of the sword shook. This shape covered Li Xiaoyao's temples, neck, wrists, elbows, and waist. Although the two were in the dark, the opponent's figure was light, and the sword was silent and extremely elegant.

Although this move is the "Blooming Red Plum" of the Wuliang Sword School, the way the opponent uses the sword is the essence of the Xiaoyao School's martial arts.When Li Xiaoyao saw him, he knew that this person was not a thief, but a disciple of Li Qiushui's disciple, so he said displeased: "The sword is a gentleman, how can it be used for sneak attack, like a rat?" The black iron sword pierced out from under the armpit of his left arm , a sword was piercing the opponent's sword lattice, the man's long sword was struck by lightning, he could no longer hold it, it bounced high, nailed to the beam of the house, hugged his wrist, sat down on the ground with his buttocks, softly hurting Can't stop.

Li Xiaoyao was about to teach this guy with an impure heart and blasphemy of swordsmanship again, but he withdrew his sword and backed away, wondering, "Are you a woman?" He hurriedly lit the oil lamp, the light was dim, but the woman's stunning beauty But the face has a dazzling brilliance of its own, people who are directly illuminated are dazzled, and dare not look directly at it.

Li Xiaoyao looked at the beautiful face of Li Qiushui's family, and said dumbfoundedly: "So it's my niece." Put on a sack and take away this cheap niece!

The woman on the ground was Princess Yinchuan. She raised her head, looked at Li Xiaoyao and said, "What did you call me?" After the funeral.

He smiled, showing all eight white teeth, and said in a friendly voice, "Hasn't the queen mother told you? My name is Li Xiaoyao, and I'm still your cousin." He thought he was amiable, but he didn't know his appearance Pingping, the light is dim at this moment, and he made this expression, which is especially scary.

Princess Yinchuan was afraid, but she was born in the royal family after all, so she calmed down for a moment and carefully recalled the very familiar name "Li Xiaoyao".Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she said quickly, "Oh, I remembered. You are that evil spirit!"

Li Xiaoyao's face darkened when he heard the words, and said: "The queen mother loves the younger generation the most, and she will never say that about me." Princess Yinchuan nodded, and said: "It was General Helian Tieshu who talked with the emperor like this. Calling you. The Queen Mother has never mentioned you."

In Li Xiaoyao's heart, he circled the name of Helian Iron Tree with a red pen.Curious in his heart, he asked, "Then what did the Queen Mother say about me?" Princess Yinchuan's big eyes flickered, and she said, "Didn't I just say that? The Queen Mother never mentioned you."

Li Xiaoyao sat down on the chair and murmured: "Oh, I'm so tired." Princess Yinchuan didn't know what he was talking about, but seeing that he hadn't committed any crime, she boldly stood up, took a step closer, and said: " Li Xiaoyao, what's wrong with you?"

Li Xiaoyao looked at her weakly, and said, "I'm fine. But princess, what are you doing here so late?"

Princess Yinchuan rolled her eyes and said, "I am a princess. In this palace, I can go wherever I want. But you sneaked into the palace late at night and came to the Queen Mother. What are you going to do?"

Li Xiaoyao let out a long sigh, and said to Princess Yinchuan: "I came here for your recruitment of a son-in-law. I thought that the queen mother would always come back to check on you for such a big event, so I came to the palace to find the queen mother first. Unexpectedly, he was not here, but he met the real master."

Princess Yinchuan blushed and said, "Ah, you also want to choose a son-in-law? But my ideal person must be a handsome young man with sword eyebrows and star eyes, you..." She looked at Li Xiaoyao carefully again, shook her head and said : "No, you can't."

Li Xiaoyao holds his head in his hands, his eyes are full of Xu Zhu's honor.He took a deep breath, looked at Princess Yinchuan, and said, "Don't worry, in terms of seniority, I'm already your cousin, and I won't come to choose a son-in-law."

Princess Yinchuan felt relieved after getting his guarantee, patted her chest, and said with a smile: "That's great! But I don't know why you are looking for me?"

Li Xiaoyao had found Princess Yinchuan at this moment, even if he forcibly took her away, he thought to himself that no one could stop her.Then he told the other party all the reasons of the matter.Princess Yinchuan didn't expect that her father would love her so much and would cause so many troubles if she wanted to find a good husband for her. She couldn't help but feel uncomfortable and sat there silent.

Li Xiaoyao said to Princess Yinchuan: "The Murong and his sons only want to be emperors. Although Murong Fu looks a little better than me, but not much. The princess must never choose this unlucky guy."

After hearing this, Princess Yinchuan wondered: "Is Murong Fu really as miserable as you say?" Li Xiaoyao thought about it for a while, and said seriously: "Princess, if you marry into their family, if they want to be emperor in Xixia, where are you?" When you are caught between your husband's family and your in-law's family, how should you deal with yourself?"

Seeing that Princess Yinchuan was frowning, he hurriedly fanned the flames and said, "If they care about your affection and want to become emperors in other countries, they are pure rebels. You, a genuine eldest princess, are you going to stand up to the emperor?" As a rebel, he has been hiding with them all his life and is in danger?" He saw that Princess Yinchuan was moved, so he continued his efforts and said, "Besides, from my point of view, that Murong Fu is shallow and short-lived. .”

Princess Yinchuan became interested all of a sudden, and asked, "You know how to read faces? Can you teach me?" Li Xiaoyao picked up the black iron sword, wiped it vigorously with his sleeve, and said, "As long as he chooses the Prince Consort of Xixia, he will immediately It will be short-lived, and this is what I personally showed him, it’s his fate!" Seeing that the smile on Princess Yinchuan’s face gradually lost, he sneered, "Princess, you don’t want to become a widow just after passing the door, do you?"

Princess Yinchuan collapsed on the chair in frustration, and said, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, if you don't choose Murong Fu." Li Xiaoyao touched the top of Princess Yinchuan's head with a smile, and said: "Good niece, this Good boy, you want to find a handsome man to be your son-in-law, don’t you? Except for Murong Fu, you can just choose. If you don’t find someone you like this time, tell your cousin, I’ll call my subordinates immediately, and tie him up for you. There are also a hundred and eighty tied, let's pick slowly and carefully, how about it?"

Princess Yinchuan rolled her big dark eyes a few times, then suddenly smiled slyly, and said: "Little cousin, if you want me not to choose Murong Fu as your son-in-law, I will agree to you, but you have to be sincere. My royal father is rich all over the world, he can find any kind of son-in-law for me, but in this section, I don't need you."

Li Xiaoyao said with a bitter face, "Then what do you think?" Princess Yinchuan said, "I want you to promise me three things. But I haven't made up my mind yet, and I will tell you later when I do."

Seeing that Li Xiaoyao remained silent, she quickly said: "You said it yourself, if I don't choose Murong Fu, I will save countless people in Xia, Song, and Liao. Now it's not too much for the people of a country to change their promises." stop?"

Li Xiaoyao gritted his teeth, stretched out his palm, and said, "Your cousin, I am a showman but not a person, so don't go too far?" Princess Yinchuan smiled all over her face, stretched out her small hand, gave him a high-five, and said, "Deal!"
