Chapter 1229: Xuanyuan Li

"Just don't let me?"

Looking at the group of imperial guards who were the elite of the Flame God Legion in front of me, I slowly raised my hand, and suddenly the Vulcan Blade and the Thunder God Blade swayed out of their sheaths and flew into my hands. Everyone is full of murderous intent.

"Fire in July!"

Nangong also shouted in a low voice: "You are too bold and reckless, don't you really dare to violently kill people in the palace?"

"Why not?"

I frowned: "Nangong Yi, why did you appear here? Don't you know better than me why the imperial guards were replaced by members of your Flame God Legion?"

As I said that, I raised one hand and said: "Zhang Lingyue, prepare to lead people to charge from the two wings, straight into the hall."

"Yes, my lord!"

A group of Tianqi Battalion elites drew their swords one after another, and the brilliance of the inscription sword shone coldly in the moonlit night. For a moment, not only Nangong Yi, but also a group of members of the Flame God Legion behind him were shocked. The Liuhuo Legion is an elite frontier guard. Everyone here is a person who licked blood at the edge of the northern border. Who has not cut a strange demon army with a sword? Just the murderous aura derived from drawing a sword is not what a pampered young master army like the Yanshen Legion can have.

...

"Shanhai Gong."

Just when the battle was about to break out, a familiar and weak voice suddenly came from the direction of the main hall, it was Xuanyuan Ying's voice: "Let the Marquis of Beiliang come in, I can trust him."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Nangong also frowned, and waved his hand to order the imperial guards to move out of the way.

"grown ups."

Zhang Ling held his bow tightly and planned to enter the hall with me, but I shook my head and said, "I will go to see His Majesty alone, you all wait outside, don't disturb Your Majesty."

"Yes, my lord!"

...

Two imperial guards opened the door, and when I stepped into the hall, they closed the door immediately, the candles in the hall were flickering, a little wind blew in, and there were many waves, and besides me, there were also people in the hall. There is only one Xuanyuan Ying, the majestic and regal Emperor Longwu no longer exists. Sitting on the steps, he is covered with gray hair and his breath is unbelievably weak, like a man who is about to run out of oil. Like a dry old man.

"His Majesty."

I frowned, feeling a little distressed for no reason.

"OK……"

Xuanyuan Ying clapped his hands lightly, and laughed in a weak voice: "What a fire in July, what a marquis of Beiliang, who led his cavalry into the imperial city without authorization, and wanted to break into my main hall... this matter, only you seven Yueliuhuo can and dares to do it.”

"Your Majesty, I..." I tried to explain something, but there seemed to be nothing to explain.

He smiled slightly, raised his hand in a low voice: "Sit down and talk."

"yes."

I sat cross-legged in front of the steps of the main hall, facing him far away, like a nephew sitting and discussing with an elder.

"I am very pleased that you can come."

He leaned lightly on the steps, breathing a little, and said: "In the entire Xuanyuan Empire, there are so many commanders with heavy soldiers in their hands, and you are the only one who has smelled the smell, and you are the only one who dares to lead the army to come. King Qin."

He looked at me and said with a smile: "You haven't let me down, and only you like this can let me entrust my affairs with confidence."

"Your Majesty, you..."

I looked at his face, as the king of the eternal life realm, with the sense of Lingxu, he knew Xuanyuanying's state like the palm of his hand, his body seemed to be burned out after the battle of Longyu, leaving only It is an empty shell, if it is not supported by the breath of immortality, I am afraid that it will have passed away long ago.

"Don't be sad."

His breath weakened, and he said: "For so many years... I have always regarded you as a nephew, now I don't need to call you Your Majesty anymore, can you...call me like a nephew?"

I frowned: "Uncle."

"Um!"

Xuanyuan Ying nodded heavily, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "If you are really from my Xuanyuan lineage, and my Xuanyuanying's son, then that's fine. What's the matter? If you are the new emperor, no one dares to gossip What a pity... I, Xuanyuan, should not have such a blessing, I can only be your uncle..."

I hesitated to speak, looking at his frail appearance, my heart seemed to have overturned the five-flavored bottle. The holy king who ordered an expedition to the centaur tribe, the holy king who raised his hand and decided to destroy the Scarlet Royal Court, was simply There was no way to connect him with the old man in front of him, so he could only bow his head in silence, feeling a little sad in his heart.

"Son, don't feel sorry for me."

Xuanyuan Ying's breath became weaker, and he said: "After the war is over, I have been waiting for you here, as long as you come, I have a big thing to ask you."

"Uncle entrusted me, I will not refuse." I said in a deep voice.

"Um."

Xuanyuan Ying looked at the window in the middle of the wall of the main hall, with leisurely eyes, and said: "I have three sons, the eldest son Xuanyuan Li is a scholar who follows the practice of wind. It's a pity that his personality is a bit weak. If he becomes an emperor in the future, he will be more than benevolent in governing the country, but he will be somewhat lacking in courage. The second son, Xuanyuanqi, is like me, like me when I was young. His personality is too perverted, far less benevolent than his elder brother, and he is more than enough to lead the army, but if he becomes emperor... I am afraid it will delay the country. As for the third son, Xuanyuanxi, he has ordinary qualifications and ordinary studies, not as good as the two elder brothers. "

He looked at me and said, "These three sons, who do you think is the most appropriate to be the emperor?"

I frowned and said, "Uncle can establish whoever he wants, and I will absolutely support him."

"Um……"

He nodded slowly, as if he had received a very satisfactory answer, and said: "I prefer the eldest son Xuanyuanli, he is the most virtuous and capable, and will be a good ruler of the country, but once Xuanyuanli succeeds to the throne, he can only be a benevolent ruler at best , but he is not a wise king. He needs the help of a strong and virtuous minister. All I can leave him is you, Feng Xiang, and no one else. The wind and rain are about to come up and down the empire, and the boat is going far away. You should be the most aware of the dangers."

I nodded: "I know."

"so."

Xuanyuan Ying said in a deep voice: "Uncle chose you to be the person who supports the dragon, you must not refuse, this is the last wish of Uncle, you and the wind, with every penny and weapon, will surely revive the great cause of the rejuvenation of our Xuanyuan Empire. "

I sat up, knelt down on one knee, and said in a deep voice, "I obey the order."

"Um."

Xuanyuan Ying nodded lightly and said: "Tomorrow will be the court meeting, uncle will crown you king, this is the last thing I can do for you.

"King?"

I was slightly taken aback: "Your Majesty wants to make a king with a foreign surname?"

"Exactly, everything will be so justified if you are crowned king for you, otherwise your title is not high, Mingyang Wang Xuanyuanyi, Shanhaigong Nangongyi and others, you can't be deterred at all, so uncle must ask you before he leaves. Canonize you as the king under one person and above ten thousand people, so that apart from the king of the empire, you alone can decide everything, even if Xuanyuanli is at fault, you can still reprimand one or two with the attitude of a big brother. One on the left and the other on the right, we will help the country together.”

He looked at me: "The matter of becoming king has been decided, you don't have to refuse, only the status above ten thousand people, holding the strongest first-class corps in the empire, only such a person can control the world, and be strong when the old and new kings alternate. While stabilizing the situation in the temple, Feng Xiang, like me, was deeply wounded in the battle of Longyu, so many of these things still require you to use your thunder wrist to solve them. In the next few years, you This king will be very tired, this is because uncle is sorry for you."

Looking at his old appearance, my heart seemed to be pinched, and I said bitterly: "It's what my nephew should do to share your worries. I will never feel tired. Uncle, please rest assured."

"Um."

Xuanyuan Ying looked in the direction of the window of the main hall again, and said, "Just wait until dawn, the morning morning after dawn..."

"knew."

I sat on the ground and said, "I am here with my uncle waiting for the dawn."

"Okay, very good."

So, the two sat facing each other, gossiping, and sat like this until dawn. Afterwards, the imperial guards opened the door of the palace, and then a young man wearing the prince's clothes stepped in. It was a very young looking Dong. At the peak of the Void Realm, don't even think about it, it means His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xuanyuanli.

"Li'er."

Xuanyuan Ying waved his hand and said: "Come here to meet elder brother, from now on, you should regard him as your real elder brother, and there must be no disobedience, understand?"

"yes!"

Xuanyuanli hurried forward, made a big salute, and said: "Xuanyuanli, see brother."

"Your Highness is welcome."

I hastily supported the future lord, and said, "There is no need to perform such a great gift."

Xuanyuan Ying waved his hands with a smile: "You have to accept it. As an elder brother, he should be like this."

I had no choice but to nod, just watching Xuanyuanli perform a complete big gift, and then helped him up.

"Li'er."

Xuanyuan Ying looked at the eldest son, his eyes were full of father's love, and said: "Father is about to pass away, from now on you will be the lord of my Xuanyuan Empire, and your elder brother will be crowned king and become the first emperor in the history of the empire." A king with a foreign surname, and the supreme king. From now on, your elder brother will assist you in dealing with the affairs of the country. If you have anything you don’t understand, you should be humble enough to ask for advice, especially for major matters above military and political affairs. Your elder brother is stronger than you, so you should ask for advice. .”

"yes……"

Xuanyuan Li looked at his father's precarious state, his eyes were full of sadness, then he turned around and bowed to me again: "Brother, I will ask for your guidance from now on."

"Um."

I nodded yes.

...

Not long after, the sunlight penetrated through the window and swayed on Xuanyuan Ying's face. He was at ease, as if he was about to go where he should go, and asked, "Are the ministers here?"

A chief guard clasped his fists: "It's all here, will your majesty meet immediately?"

"Um."

Xuanyuanying stood up tremblingly, motioned for Xuanyuanli and me, and helped him onto the dragon chair from left to right. Xuanyuanli stood beside him, while I stepped back to the bottom of the king's steps, without arrogating the slightest bit.

The door of the hall was wide open, and all the officials entered the hall quietly one by one, and the court meeting was about to begin.
