Waste prince: Why do you force me to be emperor?

"Because someone wants to kill you!"

The mysterious man picked up the tea bowl offered by Lily, opened the tea lid, and sniffed with intoxication: "It smells so good!"

"The little girl is good at making tea!"

Lily smiled sweetly, like a beautiful lily blooming in the study: "Senior, just like it!"

Xia Tian then said: "Who wants to kill me?"

The mysterious man took another sip of tea: "You are such a smart person, how can you not guess who would attack you?"

Xia Tian was thoughtful: "During the court meeting today, was Senior hiding underground and eavesdropping?"

"Bullshit!"

The mysterious man held the hot tea cup as if holding a small stove: "I heard it openly!"

"Why did you come to eavesdrop?"

summer:"......."

"Senior, is my cheap father trying to attack me?"

"What do you think?"

The mysterious man's face turned solemn: "Although you cut off Daxia's retreat at the court meeting, and although you forced Daxia's court to decide to fight, you also forced Daxia's emperor, who wanted to be immortal, to wait until next spring before the flowers bloom. Open the Jixia Underground Palace!"

"After you left the palace today, your cheap father verified the border battle report, and then led the blood slave army generals directly to the Jixia Underground Palace!"

"Listen to your cheap father's tone... There are still some dying old people in seclusion in Jixia Underground Palace. This time they all have to shout out and open the gate of Jixia Underground Palace to seek immortality!"

"I bet they can't open it!"

At this point, the mysterious man paused: "But if they can't open it, you will become their last hope!"

"At that time, even if your cheap father has some conscience, he can't suppress his wish for immortality. He will definitely take action against you and sacrifice you to heaven in front of the Jixia Underground Palace!"

"You have the ability to understand people's hearts, so you know the consequences!"

"So, you'd better run for your life!"

Xia Tian put down the tea cup and asked thoughtfully: "Can't Senior also deal with those who are about to die?"

"of course can!"

The mysterious man raised his head proudly: "But I can't guarantee that after being entangled... you won't be dismembered, blood drawn, and sacrificed to heaven by them!"

"It's a matter of two levels of difficulty!"

"Can you understand?"

"Of course!"

Xia Tian narrowed his eyes: "Thank you, senior, for reminding me!"

"Senior, don't worry. I will be more careful next time, and I will cherish my life!"

At this time.

Lily set up tables and chairs in front of the mysterious man, then put out delicious food and wine: "Senior, please eat!"

"fragrant!"

The mysterious man picked up the chopsticks unceremoniously and muttered while devouring: "I see you are not surprised, you have thought of it a long time ago, right?"

"Yes!"

Xia Tian picked up the brush, dipped it in Lily's freshly polished black ink, and began to write instructions on the memorial: "Last time, an old brother came to tell me that my father killed an expert who helped him train blood slaves, so I You know my cheap father must have a back-up plan!"

"I guessed... there must be a peerless master hidden in the darkness under the Enshrinement Hall!"

"Otherwise, my father would not have given up on the Blood Ancestor so easily, nor would he have given up on a half-step land immortal so easily!"

The mysterious man swallowed the braised pork in his mouth and asked the question in his mind: "At the lotus pond in Zhang Mansion... did you let the person in the pond go on purpose?"

Xia Tian closed one memorial and continued to give instructions to the next: "Is that the old friend that senior is looking for?"

"no!"

The mysterious man swallowed a mouthful of braised pork and categorically denied it!

This kid is so smart!

"is it?"

Xia Tian continued to ask: "Is he from the depths of the South China Sea?"

"do not know!"

The mysterious man swallowed the last piece of braised pork angrily and changed the subject: "Do you know...that your suspicious father has taken back and read all the memorials you have directed!"

"Know!"

"Then do you know... that after he secretly collected the memorial of your instructions, he tried to change your instructions countless times?"

Xia Tian's instructions kept coming: "Then what?"

The mysterious man found it very boring: "I watched him holding the brush in the dark, thinking over and over again, as if he didn't know how to make corrections!"

"In the end, he could only put down his brush and muttered to himself..."

Xia Tian smiled and said pointedly: "It seems... there is no place in the palace that seniors can't reach through underground secret passages!"

Mystery man:"......"

"Do you want to know what the Emperor of Daxia said?"

Xia Tian heard the mysterious man's dissatisfaction and asked in cooperation: "Think!"

"Senior, tell me quickly!"

The eyes of the mysterious man softened by three points: "When he put down his pen, he said... Xiaojiu's instructions were written in detail, and every sentence was bloody. He analyzed the causes and consequences clearly, and could see the essence of things through memorials. , the approval document is reasonable and well-founded, even if I personally give the approval, it is nothing more than this!"

"He doubts your wisdom is God-given!"

"I saw in the dark that his face was constantly changing. Sometimes he was happy, sometimes worried, sometimes irritable. His heart seemed to be full of contradictions!"

"Although he is proud to have a descendant like you, he is willing to give up on you for the sake of his immortality!"

"What do you say?"

At this time.

"Hehehe..."

Xia Tian put down his pen and smiled meaningfully: "Senior is right!"

"Sooner or later he won't let me go!"

"But I won't run away now!"

"If I escape from the imperial capital now and return to the deserted state, all my previous efforts to save Daxia will be wasted, and the Daxia Empire will collapse!"

"So, I can't leave now!"

"Fool!"

The mysterious man put down his chopsticks heavily: "You have saved Daxia's life, but what about yours?"

"If you die here this time...is it worth it?"

"Isn't it worth it?"

Xia Tian stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked to the door of the study: "If my life can be exchanged for hundreds of millions of Daxia people not being slaughtered, isn't it worth it?"

"If I can exchange my life for the women of Daxia not to be ravaged by foreign races, and exchange them for not crying, isn't it worth it?"

"If my life can be exchanged for the safety of Daxia's mountains and rivers, and the people of Daxia can be exchanged for their families not being destroyed, isn't it worth it?"

"If I exchange my life for the reunion of thousands of families in Daxia, isn't it worth it?"

Looking at the heavy snow outside the door, Xia Tian raised his head and looked at the snowy sky and said: "Senior, is there anyone you want to protect in your life...?"

"Is there a place you want to protect?"

"If so...is it worth it?"

The mysterious man was stunned!

He stood up and walked to Xia Tian, ​​looked at him with burning eyes and said: "Boy, I really want to split your head open and take a look... to see what's inside?"

"You are different from the saints I know!"

"Are you really a mortal?"

"Yes!"

Xia Tian's eyes were full of seriousness: "I have an ordinary body, an ordinary heart, and there are ordinary things around me!"

"I do not believe!"

The mysterious man's eyes were inexplicably penetrating: "Unless you can prove it yourself!"

gratuitous.

Xia Tian felt a chill down his spine: "How can I prove it myself?"

The mysterious man's eyes shone brightly, and he said word by word: "Give me a bite... have a taste..."
