While Lei Xiao was doing everything intensively, preparing for the final battle for the throne.
At the other end of the distance, intoxicated carnival and contemptuous sneers also echoed wantonly in the magnificent palace hall.
At the top of the hall, next to the golden throne, a luxurious golden bed has been set up. The golden bed curtain engraved with the lion emblem of the Leng Yan royal family is hung high. The fourth prince is lazily sleeping. Recline on it.
Surrounding the fourth prince, a dozen beautiful maids with exquisite makeup were standing there waiting respectfully. So were squeezing the shoulders and legs of this distinguished royal mber, while others were carrying cakes and drinks.
These slim young maids are not dressed in black and white maid uniforms, but are all wearing snow-white silk skirts, making their slender and slender bodies faintly visible under the dazzling tassel chandelier.
Under the illumination of the light, not only the graceful figure was reflected, but also the shocking new and old scars on the skin, which was as shiny as snow.
Coupled with the fearful looks of the young maids walking on thin ice, it is not difficult to see from this.
This young and energetic fourth prince was not only rciless to the eldest prince and the second prince, but was also obviously very violent in all aspects.
In the position below the fourth prince, in addition to the three wealthy grand dukes Hanshui, Stone and Kent, there were more than ten high-ranking nobles who were eating and drinking with their mouths full of oil, looking very happy.
"Your Highness, I received news not long ago that there have been so minor changes in the family's main city."
In the enchanted hall, Han Shui gracefully put down the goblet in his hand, still looking calm, caressing his chest slightly and said: "I need to return to Lion Heart City early tomorrow morning."
"oh?"
The fourth prince swung his arm and roughly pushed a maid who was blocking his sight to the ground. He said with a puzzled look on his face: "The war is about to begin. Soldiers from the rchant Family have arrived at Fort Kyle one after another. Why does Lord Hanshui want to be there?" Are you going back to your hotown at this ti?"
"To be honest with you, Your Majesty, as I just said, there has been a slight change in Lion Heart City, and a few little bugs have gotten into it."
Han Shui snorted contemptuously and responded: "But please rest assured, Your Highness, I will resolve these small matters soon."
"Grand Duke Hanshui, this is an extraordinary mont, so caution is paramount."
I saw Stone, who was full of wrinkles, dragging a young maid with tears in her eyes. She raised her eyebrows while moving her unscrupulous hands.
"Earlier today, I heard that sothing went wrong in Lionheart City. The castle where the four pokemon elders who have been at odds with you exploded inexplicably, causing quite a stir."
With veins exposed in Stone's veteran hands, he tightly held the helpless young maid, and continued leisurely: "Could it be that your n were not careful when cleaning the door, causing a backlash?"
"These are the family affairs of our rchant family, so don't bother Grand Duke Stone, who is always busy with everything."
There was no wave on Han Shui's indifferent face, and he said calmly: "Besides, I'm just dealing with a few rebels who are trying to subvert the family. This is such a small matter that I don't need to do it myself."
After finishing speaking, Han Shui's playful gaze moved and began to wander over the maids waiting in the hall. The look in his eyes showed disdain, as if he was selecting a disposable toy.
The slender and slender bodies of the maids who were stared at by Han Shui could not help but tremble, obviously they were also very afraid of this unsmiling Grand Duke.
At this mont, the Grand Duke of Kent, who had been eating at, put down the knife and fork in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said, "So, Grand Duke Hanshui's family affairs were handled smoothly?"
"But I heard that when a group of rchant Family Guards clashed with the Yucheng patrol, they were attacked by several unknown strong n who claid to be rcenaries. The whereabouts of the attackers are still unknown."
After speaking, the Grand Duke of Kent drained the remaining wine in his glass, and imdiately looked down at the maid waiting beside him.
Under the murderous eyes of the Archduke of Kent, the young maid's legs weakened and she quickly knelt down on the ground, carefully pouring wine and changing plates for the forr.
The forr was obviously quite satisfied. While jokingly examining the latter from the best angle, he continued to say to Han Shui: "You are not an ordinary person to be able to act unscrupulously in your main city. I hope Grand Duke Han Shui will not go too far. It is better to underestimate the enemy."
"Mr. Kent's concerns are not unreasonable."
The fourth prince slowly sat up from the big bed, took the wine glass respectfully handed by the maid, and said with a frown: "Currently, it is the critical mont to annihilate that despicable alien, and he has many tricks, even if it is... We have an advantage, but we must not be careless, otherwise we will most likely end up like the two losers before."
"What His Highness said is absolutely true."
Han Shui temporarily stopped looking at him and focused his attention on the fourth prince again. He nodded slightly and said, "Your Highness, please rest assured. I have my own sense of discretion."
"Duke Hanshui, please don't bla for being nagging. Now the three wealthy families like us are on the sa front."
Stone withdrew his big hand, tightened his gray eyebrows and said, "The Grand Duke of Kent's analysis just now was reasonable. I even suspected that maybe it was despicable aliens who were behind it!"
"I think so too."
Kent took the pale maid into his arms and echoed: "I have long heard that the Chairman of Kongqing Town and Fanyin City of the Shanglu clan seem to be very close to that despicable alien. Without their help, those despicable outsiders may turn the Shanglu family upside down, and it will definitely affect the morale of the soldiers on the front line."
"Haha, if it is really that despicable alien who is causing trouble, I think it is more than that."
Stone gently stroked his gray beard and said with a sinister smile: "Including the white knight, there are already four fifth-level strong n in the opponent's camp, not counting the mysterious dragon knight who ca and went without a trace. .”
"Although our trump cards and thods combined are no less than those of these national-level powerhouses, you can imagine the situation if the opponent gathers their top combat power in one place."
"According to my understanding, although there are absolute defensive barriers inside and outside Lion Heart City, which are enough to make the fifth-level powerhouse defeated, but with the current main force being used up, it will be very easy for the opponent to turn things upside down in the Lion Heart City. .”
Stone's voice began to get deeper and deeper, and then he said solemnly: "For example, leading soone back to his hotown, controlling him, or even poisoning him, in order to weaken our power."
"Qing Stone, are you saying that the despicable alien will attack Duke Hanshui?"
The fourth prince reacted imdiately, his eyes widened and he said nervously: "That despicable and cunning alien can indeed do such a thing, we have to guard against it."
After hearing the discussion of several people, Han Shui still had the sa calm poker face and said disdainfully: "To be honest with you, Your Highness, the reason why I went back is precisely because according to the report from Lion Heart City, I captured my businessman Shang Lu. Gale, the president of Fanyin City, and Lin, the president of Kongqing Town.”
"I have long known about the misdeeds of these two insignificant side scum and getting too close to the despicable outsider. I have also secretly ordered them to be captured imdiately once they appear in Lion Heart City."
"Although your Majesty has closed all trade fairs in areas controlled by despicable outsiders and recalled the presidents from various places, the speed at which these two scum returned to Lionheart City was too fast, which is obviously extrely unusual."
A hint of contempt appeared on Han Shui's indifferent face, and he said calmly: "Coupled with the fact that the Guards in the city were attacked by an unknown strong man, it is self-evident that the despicable alien must be behind this. Make trouble out of it.”
When he said this, Han Shui's expression beca even more contemptuous, and he snorted coldly: "In other words, the other party is taking such pains just to attract the subordinates back."
"It turns out that Lord Hanshui already knows everything."
The nervous expression on the fourth prince's face faded, and he nodded with a sudden enlightennt and said: "Then, let Qing Shi and Qing Kent lead the strong n of their respective families to return to Lion Heart City with Qing Han Shui, so that everything will be safe. , and can even eradicate the despicable aliens in advance."
"That's right, it's easy for the three giants to assemble 50 level 4 experts. Even if all the opponent's level 5 experts are deployed, we can handle it with ease."
Stone first glanced at Han Shui jokingly, and then said leisurely: "Although the three wealthy families like us do not have fifth-level experts today, there are also many fifth-level experts who have erged over the past six hundred years, and they still have so background. Yes, there are endless trump cards to deal with the fifth-level powerhouses."
After talking to Si, Kent also nodded, raised his eyebrows and echoed: "In this way, the life of Grand Duke Hanshui can be saved."
"No need, Lancaster and Yorkman don't need to take action for this trivial matter, our Phytophaga family is enough."
Looking at the joking faces of Stone and Kent, Han Shui waved his hand indifferently.
Han Shui bowed to the fourth prince, caressing his chest, and said, "Your Highness, if you overwork your troops and mobilize the people, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of the despicable aliens, which will not be conducive to my plan to completely catch the despicable aliens. "
After finishing speaking, Han Shui glanced at Stone and Kent, obviously not appreciating their "good intentions."
Han Shui knew clearly in his heart that the three wealthy families were still fighting openly and secretly not long ago, and no one was convinced by the other.
In this case, if you accept the help of the other party and cause the elites of the other two wealthy families to flood into Lion Heart City in large numbers, it will be equivalent to admitting that the rchant family is inferior to the Lancaster family and the Yorkman family in terms of reputation. The general will now be at a disadvantage.
What's more, opening up the main city to allow the opponent's strong players to enter has never happened before in history, and will undoubtedly lead to a series of unpredictable consequences.
After all, if the other party takes the opportunity to spy on information or make so small moves, it must be a sure thing.
Therefore, even if the despicable alien is wiped out, the Shanglu family will inevitably be at a disadvantage in the subsequent struggle. This is sothing that I cannot tolerate.
"Qing Hanshui, so you have a way to deal with that despicable alien?"
After hearing Han Shui's confident words, the fourth prince's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"That's right, Your Highness, just as Grand Duke Stone said, our Shangluc family has lasted for more than six hundred years, and our financial resources are the largest in the Cold Fla Kingdom. We still have this bit of background. Several fifth-level powerhouses have also There is nothing I can do about it, my ministers."
Han Shui raised his glass gracefully, took a sip of the red wine in the goblet, and said calmly: "Although it is difficult for to eliminate all the top experts of the opponent at once, I can still restrain them and defeat them one by one."
"As expected of Lord Hanshui, this is a reassuring answer."
The fourth prince quickly understood Han Shui's considerations, and did not say anything else. Instead, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "Then everything will be according to Han Shui Qing's wish, but just in case, I will lend it to Han Shui again." Your powerful trump card is enough to help Hanshui Qing deal with that despicable alien more easily."
"Then I will be disrespectful. Since the despicable aliens are ready to take action against , I will personally send this scumbag to the grave."
After hearing what the fourth prince said, Han Shui did not refuse this ti, but readily agreed.
After that, although Stone and Kent warned and ridiculed Han Shui many tis while they were intoxicated, they were all brushed aside by the latter.
In the end, the two grand dukes who were asking for trouble said nothing more and focused their attention again on the trembling young maids around them.
In the splendid hall, the extravagant banquet continued. The obscene laughter and contemptuous words soon filled the air again, echoing wantonly in the huge space.
…
The next morning, the sky was still hazy, and Lei Xiao and Ariel opened their eyes almost at the sa ti.
Today is a crucial day to go to Lion Heart City and pull away the cold water from the throne of the family leader. Naturally, the two of them have no idea of lazy bed. After all, this will directly affect the life and death of the territory.
"Lord, do you think everything will go smoothly? Lionheart City is the core area that Han Shui has worked hard to manage."
After Ariel was fully dressed, she frowned slightly uneasily at Lei Xiao and said, "Han Shui dominates the Shanglu family. He is by no ans comparable to the ordinary arrogant and fallen nobles. And the fourth child is also smarter than the eldest and second child." He is much more stable and will never sit idly by."
"I understand, I'm afraid the other party has already seen through our plan to attract Han Shui back to Lion Heart City."
Lei Xiao casually touched Ariel's head and said with a faint smile: "But the core of our plan this ti is to use the enemy's tactics. So far, everything is within our expectations."
When he said this, a look of solemnity appeared on Lei Xiao's face, and he continued: "As for the only variable, it is Han Shui's trump card."
"That's true. I rember that Han Shui kept a very low profile when he was in the palace. Even my father could not fully understand his background."
Ariel pondered and nodded, the uneasiness on her fair face becoming more and more obvious: "Although we are competing against Han Shui on the surface, we are actually fighting against the legacy of the Phytococcus family that has lasted for more than six hundred years. After all, as a The head of the family, Han Shui, controls most of the Phytococcus family’s trump cards and resources.”
"Don't worry, we have gone through so many storms together, and there has never been a narrow escape from death."
Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile, nodded and said: "As long as you are by my side, I will be invincible."
After speaking, Lei Xiao touched Ariel's head again, signaling her to relax, and went to wash up first.
Ariel, on the other hand, looked at Lei Xiao's tall back and murmured: "For my subordinates, only when the lord is by my side can I feel at ease."
