Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Dusty Past (Part II)


"It's time to drink water" Xuan'er walked out of the room with milk tea in her smile, Tang Lie leaned the overweight giant sword in her hand against the trunk of the tree, took the towel from Xuan'er's hand, and wiped the sweat off her face.

Fu Mujin looked at Tang Hunt with appreciation, this young man's physical strength was beyond his imagination, it seemed that the kyanite had quietly changed his body structure, and after his correct click, Tang Hunt's strength had changed with each passing day.

Tang Lie gulped down the milk tea in the cup, poured another cup with a lot of satisfaction, and drank three cups in a row before drying the corners of his lips and sitting down opposite Fu Mujin: "Old man, how do you see how I behaved tonight?"

Fu Mujin smiled indifferently: "Compared to when I first met you, I have naturally made a lot of progress, but there is still a long way to go before I asked." ” Tang Lie said: "If you continue like this, I don't know when you will be able to practice your kung fu of resisting water as a sword."

Fu Mujin shook his head and said: "Your body structure is completely different from ours, you are far inferior to us in terms of innate physical fitness, but your acquired expansion power is far superior to ours, until your physical strength reaches a certain level, you will not be able to practice profound martial arts at all, otherwise you will only be quick but not reach." ” Tang Lie understood this truth, and he smiled: "Practicing martial arts is not for the sake of fighting, killing, and killing, but strengthening my body is my original purpose." ” Fu Mujin glanced at Tang Lie meaningfully and said, "Is that really the case?"

Tang Hunt laughed, of course he was not for any purpose to strengthen his body, learn the art of fighting, and improve his combat effectiveness, one was to deal with the dangerous enemies around him, and the other was to have the opportunity to find the spars in the future and take them into his hands.

Fu Mujin said: "In a few days, your physical strength should be able to control the Holy Dragon Tattoo on your right arm, but if you want to truly exert its energy, you must go through a long and arduous training. ” He put down the teacup, took out a worn-out parchment scroll from his arms, and solemnly handed it to Tang Lie: "This is my experience in martial arts, and there are also some information related to spars, which you may use in the future." ” Tang Lie was surprised: "Old man, you have to leave" Formugin nodded: "There's something I have to do, it's time to leave." ” Through this period of contact, Tang Lie unconsciously regarded Fu Mujin as his own relative, and when he heard that he was leaving, he suddenly felt a feeling of reluctance in his heart: "I don't have any relatives in this imperial capital, if you are always willing, take me with you." ” Fu Mujin smiled and shook his head: "Tang Lie, some things must be done by myself" He stared at Tang Lie and said: "While improving your physical fitness, you must learn to control yourself, I believe that one day, you will achieve your heart's wish." ” Tang Lie sighed and said: "Actually, I don't want to stay here, the prince Xuan Kite has a bad life for me, and Adams has also offended me, and if I stay here, I will be framed by them sooner or later." ” Fu Mujin smiled: "Your own affairs can only be solved by yourself, no one can help you" He lowered his voice and said to Tang Lie: "The secret between us should never be known to others." ” Tang Lie nodded heavily.

If it weren't for the reason for Yan Yue, Tang Lie would not have set foot in Maisie's farm at all, and now his identity is no longer the slave who was called by Maisie to drink at the beginning, and the matter of Emperor Xuan Sizhe personally giving him a jade plate has already spread all over the streets and alleys of the imperial capital, in the eyes of everyone, Tang Lie seems to have become the benefactor of the emperor, even Maisie has to be polite to him.

When Tang Hunt came to Yanyue's grave, she happened to see Maisie, she stood quietly in front of the pond, staring at the water lilies on the water, thoughtfully, hearing Tang Hunt's footsteps, she hurriedly turned around, and wiped it on her pretty face subconsciously, but the reddish circles under her eyes still suggested that she should have just cried.

"You're here," Maisie gave Tang Lie a rare smile.

Tang Lie nodded coldly, he had always blamed Maisie for Yan Yue's death, and the wounds in his heart had never been erased as time passed.

Maisie's gaze fell on Yan Yue's grave, and she said thoughtfully: "If Yan Yue knew that you cared about her like this, she would be very happy in her heart." ” Tang Lie couldn't help but think of the tragic situation when Yan Yue died, and there was a tingling in his heart, and his eyes showed a light of hatred.

Maisie's gaze did not look at Tang Lie: "A woman who has someone to care about is happy." ” Tang Lie said sarcastically: "It seems that Boss Mei must be very happy, isn't General Lang Yuan always worried about you?"

Maisie sighed faintly and said, "In his heart, maybe I will never be as important as my military exploits. ” Tang Lie frowned slightly, not understanding why she would sigh like this.

"He's already on his way to the frontier this morning" Tang Lie nodded slowly, finally knowing why Maisie's mood was low.

Maisie said, "It would be nice if there was no war in this world" Tang Lie suddenly discovered that this ruthless slave owner also has a sentimental side, where there are people, there will be strife, where there are countries, there will be wars, women all over the world like to dream, but the reality is often cruel.

Tang Lie didn't want to continue talking to her, turned around and wanted to leave, took two steps and turned back: "There is one thing I have always wanted to ask you, whether that contract was burned" Maisie's pretty face showed an extremely sly smile: "Is that contract still important to you?"

A nameless anger rose in Tang Lie's heart, he could almost conclude that Maisie must have kept the contract he signed at the beginning, although the contract no longer has much meaning to him, but the hatred and insults in the past made him unforgettable, Tang Lie said coldly: "Do you know why Wolf Yuan is still unwilling to marry you" Maisie's heart trembled, this was the last thing she wanted to mention, and this damn Tang Hunt just took it out to stimulate her nerves.

"Because you are too smart and cunning, there is no man in this world who likes a selfish woman like you," Tang Lie said almost viciously.

Maisie's pretty face completely lost its color, and she suddenly screamed, "Get out of the way, bastard, you get out of the way for me" Tang Lie had expected her to have such a reaction, and strode out of the door, in all fairness, after he stimulated Maisie, he did not feel the pleasure of revenge, but felt a trace of guilt in his heart, no matter what Maisie had done, it was always too cruel to say such a thing, and even lost the demeanor of a man.

I don't know when a drizzle fell in the air, Tang Hunt waved his hand to wipe the rain off his face, and looked back at the farm, which was already shrouded in smoke and rain, and I don't know if Maisie is still crying sadly The war between the Xuanwu Empire and the Lander Empire intensified, and the Xuanwu Emperor Xuan Sizhe finally decided to send reinforcements to the army in person under the situation of his own defeat and retreat.

In the rainy season, the entire imperial capital is gloomy and gloomy, and it rains all day long, shrouded in a sad and gloomy atmosphere.

Tang Hunt's clinic business was obviously much colder, perhaps because most of the men in the imperial capital were sent to the front line.

Prince Xuanyuan, Lester and others also seemed to have changed their attention because of the changes in the war, and no one came to provoke Tang Hunt, a little doctor.

The eldest princess Xuan Siling has never taken the initiative to look for him since she was separated from Tang Lie in the palace that day.

Tang Lie was happy to be free, and most of his time was spent practicing the fighting techniques taught to him by Fu Mujin.

The control over himself has also become stronger, the dragon tattoo on his right arm has never appeared again, and when he sees beautiful women, he does not have the same impulse as he did at the beginning.

The most prominent manifestation of this is that he is in the same room with the beautiful Xuan'er, but he always abides by etiquette and does not make any excessive actions.

After Fu Mujin left the imperial capital, Tang Lie also began to plan his future whereabouts, through what he learned, this continent is not quiet, and there are bloody battlefields everywhere outside the dangerous imperial capital, and it is difficult to find a comfortable paradise.

Xuan'er seemed to see the clue from Tang Hunt's actions, all she could do was to take better care of Tang Hunt and silently care about his life.

During this time, everyone in the imperial capital was shrouded in a thick haze, and the crown prince Xuanyuan was no exception, unlike others, he was not worried about the temporary disadvantage of the Xuanwu army, but for a secret decree from his father before the emperor's conquest.

"What you said is true," Xuan Yuan stared at Huo Gao, the head of the palace, with a gloomy face.

Huo Gao's white and chubby face did not have any expression, the nails of his right hand studded with diamonds were raised high, and he said sharply: "It is true, the emperor did personally draw up a secret decree before the conquest, and that secret decree has already fallen into the hands of the princess. ” Xuan Yuan sneered: "What is Chief Huo suspicious?"

Huo Gao said: "Doesn't the prince think it's strange that the emperor personally conquered, but the affairs of the state were not handed over to you to deal with, but instead designated Sima Tai, Pu Longqi and Adams to jointly take charge of the three ministers, and before the expedition, he drew up a secret decree of the gods, and personally summoned the king of Baoshu Xunne on the day of the drafting."

Xuan Yuan interrupted him impatiently: "They are all important ministers of the court, what's so strange about my father summoning them?"

Huo Gao smiled and said: "Baoshu Wang Xunne is the princess's own uncle, Pu Longqi is a resolute opponent of the prince, Sima Tai and Adams have their own calculations, it seems that they are not in the same camp as the prince, doesn't the prince have a sense of crisis?"

Xuan Yuan trembled violently in his heart, Huo Gao's words pierced his heart like a needle, his father must have arranged everything before the expedition, if it was really like Huo Gao said, he was very likely to change his original intention of passing on the throne to himself, and suddenly remembered the words of the eldest princess Xuan Siling that day, the throne of Xuanwu Kingdom is not necessarily held by a man, and it is not impossible for the father to abolish himself as the princess Xuanbo.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the first thing he needed was to find out whose hands the secret was intended and what was written on it.

Huo Gao saw that Xuan Kite's heart had already been shaken, and said in a low voice: "There is another coincidental thing, after Your Majesty's personal conquest, the princess fell ill, and this illness really came by coincidence." ” Xuan Kite's eyes flickered: "You mean" "The princess is not a scheming person, it is difficult to say whether this illness is true or not, and the old slave is worried that she will use this method to make the prince relax his vigilance against her" Xuan Yuan nodded: "According to Chief Huo, what should I do?"

Huo Gao's white and chubby face was covered with a layer of murderous intent: "Immediately strive for all the forces that can be united, and seize the opportunity to remove all obstacles":
