Nine hundred, the Emperor's Mind

The capital of the Great Xuan King, the royal city!

In the Xuande Palace, Emperor Xuantian sat high on the dragon chair, and behind it stood the chief worshipper Qin Yunling, and in the hall below, there were several figures.

These include the eldest son Xuan Zhengming, the fifth prince Xuanyou, the seventh prince Xuanwu, the ninth prince Xuanjing, and the thirteenth prince Xuan Thirteen, their faces are different, and naturally they have their own thoughts.

Among them, the Nine Emperor Princes Xuanjing and Xuan Thirteen were quite far away, but the other princes intentionally or unintentionally surrounded Xuan Thirteen in the middle, and it seemed that they wanted to talk deeply.

However, in such an occasion, it is naturally inconvenient to talk, and as for the gloomy face of Xuanjing over there, no one pays attention to it at this time.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to Xuan Thirteen, these great Xuan princes who are interested in the position of prince are in a very good mood.

After all, their biggest competitor is no longer qualified to be their opponent.

And from some gossip, I learned that the reason why Xuan Zhengzhao, the eldest son, couldn't even protect the body of the prince seemed to have provoked Lu Xun again.

Of course, the real reason for this is unknown to no one except a few people.

But just these obscure fragments have already made their fear of Lu Xun a little stronger.

What is it that makes Xuan Zhengzhao unable to even make the second prince, and where did that guy named Lu Xun get such a big energy to make the dignified Emperor Xuan compromise so much?

"I called you here today, you all know what is going on, right?"

Just when the princes' minds were turning, Xuan Tiangao on the dragon chair finally spoke, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked a rhetorical question, which made several princes come back to their senses in an instant.

"What my father said, it should be a matter of the trial of the reincarnation sea, right?"

It has to be that Xuan Thirteen, the thirteenth prince, is neither humble nor arrogant, and bows down directly and returns, which is already a fixed procedure for every reincarnation sea trial.

Not only should those families with descendants participating in the trial of the reincarnation sea be treated solemnly, but the Daxuan royal family will not slack off in the slightest, which is related to the face of the Daxuan Dynasty.

Strictly speaking, although the Great Xuan Scholar Academy is independent of the Great Xuan Royal Family, it does represent the Great Xuan Dynasty, after all, those demonic geniuses are all selected from the territory of the Great Xuan.

If the geniuses of the two great academies of the Great Xuan can shine in the trial of the reincarnation sea, even the Great Xuan Dynasty will rise with the tide.

A long time ago, Xuan Tiangao had been preparing.

"Yes, the reincarnation sea trial is extremely dangerous, and I am a little worried!"

Xuan Tiangao nodded slightly, and heard him say: "I know that your various provinces have arrangements, but this time your enemies come from all directions, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, I still have to think about it for you." ”

"Come in!"

Xuantian's high voice fell, and at the entrance of the Xuande Palace, two figures appeared, neither of them spoke, but as soon as they stood there, they let the princes know that the strength of these two was not trivial.

"A Yuanying Realm cultivator, a Ten Realm martial artist, the father is really a big deal!"

Xuan Thirteen was the strongest among the princes, and he gasped at the moment.

And he had never seen these two before, it was obvious that his father had secretly recruited or cultivated a strong man for many years.

The two powerhouses didn't say a word, they just bowed to Xuantian and stood aside, as if they didn't see those princes at all.

Such a state also made the princes take a look at it.

"This is Tao Offering and Mo Offering, responsible for protecting you in this reincarnation sea trial, as for their names, you don't need to know!"

Xuan Tiangao explained a few words briefly, so that all the princes had some guesses in their hearts, and secretly didn't even let themselves know their names, which was really mysterious.

"Zhengming, Xuanyou, Xuanjing, you don't have the identity of the Wenwu Academy, this trip to the reincarnation sea, you have to be more careful, everything, to ensure your own safety first!"

Xuan Tiangao deliberately mentioned three names, these are his eldest sons, the fifth son and the ninth son, who are quite talented, but for some reason, he did not join the Wenwu Academy.

Strictly speaking, Xuan Zhengming and Xuan You's talents are definitely standard enough, but there are some royal things that are not enough for outsiders, and the Great Xuan Royal Family still needs to cultivate some of their own people after all.

"The son will not disappoint his father!"

Xuan Zhengming and the other three princes bowed down together, so that Xuan You and Xuan Thirteen, the two geniuses of the Wenwu Academy, seemed a little out of place.

Naturally, there are some potential rivalries between several parties.

"Thirteen, in fact, this time, the person I am most optimistic about is you!"

Xuan Tiangao's words turned, and when these few words came out of his mouth, a trace of vague jealousy flashed in the eyes of Xuan You and the others, but they didn't show it.

I don't know what Xuan Tiangao thinks, at this time, Xuan Thirteen will be taken out separately, which will inevitably make several princes think more.

Could it be that the new crown prince is the thirteenth brother that his father wants?

"You are from the Academy of Scholars, and you are from the Crescent Moon Palace, presumably your palace master will not let you suffer too much loss, right?"

Xuan Tiangao had a smile on his face, and he didn't know whether his words were sincere or false, in short, as soon as these words came out, the princes' faces changed again.

Now in the Great Xuan Wenshi Academy, and even in the entire Great Xuan King Capital, the name Lu Xun is familiar to everyone, especially after he became the first person on the Hundred Battles List, almost everyone knows it.

These great Xuan princes, who have always been high, naturally have a sense of arrogance, and what follows is a touch of jealousy.

Why can a hairy boy from a small country be so good?

Of course, with Xuan Zhengzhao's previous experience, the princes will not put these jealousies on the surface, and even want to contact Lu Xun in private to see if they can win him over.

But at this moment, when they heard that Xuan Tiangao also had such a high opinion of Lu Xun, their mentality had undoubtedly changed, and the slightest jealousy was undoubtedly a little stronger.

"Father said that the emperor laughed, we may not be together, the reincarnation sea is dangerous, when the time comes, everyone will have time to take care of themselves, who can be distracted to take care of whom?"

Xuan Thirteen's mentality has always been stable, a faint smile appeared on his face, and what he said in his mouth was also true.

The reincarnation sea test relies on oneself, not others.

Xuan Thirteen is naturally arrogant, he has received enough favors from Lu Xun during this time, if he even needs the help of the other party in the reincarnation sea trial, then what is the point of the trial?

"Thirteen, I think it's safer for you to follow Lu Xun, that little guy's methods, even I can't see through it!"

Xuan Tiangao didn't seem to have the intention of letting go of Xuan Thirteen, and his words again were undoubtedly another extremely high evaluation of Lu Xun, and it also made Xuan Thirteen's eyes flash with a gleam.

"Father, the matter of the second brother is his own fault, no wonder others, the father will not still let go of this matter, right?"

Xuan Thirteen didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly mentioned it at this moment, which made all the princes feel a pang in their hearts, and secretly said that this Xuan Thirteen is too bold, right?

Although Xuan Zhengzhao has been demoted to the position of the crown prince, and now he can't even keep the position of the prince, no one dares to mention this matter in front of Xuan Tiangao, which may cause trouble for himself.

In addition to the abnormality, the princes couldn't help but admire the courage of Xuan Thirteen, if you are just bold, this thirteenth brother should be the first among the princes.

It's just that all the princes at this time have sweated for Xuan Shisan in their hearts, and the secret father will not be angered by these words, and he will not be affected by the pond fish, right?

"Your Highness the Thirteenth, pay attention to your identity!"

Xuan Tiangao in the dragon chair had not yet spoken, but Qin Yunling behind him said with a cold face.

The so-called hating house and Wu, he is a little unwelcome to see this thirteen princes now.

"It's okay!"

Fortunately, Xuan Tiangao didn't seem to be angry, he waved his hand directly, and said: "Thirteen is right, Zhengzhao is indeed to blame, this matter has been decided, I naturally won't hold on to it anymore!" ”

"It's just that I admire Lu Xun very much, if he can become your right-hand man in the future, it will definitely be my great blessing!"

Xuan Tiangao had a faint smile on his face, and the words he said this time made Xuan Thirteen's face change slightly, and the eyes of the other princes also kept looking at Xuan Thirteen.

"What do you mean by these words?"

Whether it is Xuan Thirteen or those princes who aspire to the position of crown prince, they are a little unsettled at this time.

What does Xuan Tiangao say, what does he say about the blessing of the Great Xuan, does it mean something?

Xuan 13 looked at his father with some shock, as if he wanted to see into the depths of the other party's heart, and wanted to know whether his father's words were true or false, or if there were some other deep meanings.

From the eyes of several imperial brothers, Xuan 13 saw something tangible, and he clearly knew that from today's guard, he was afraid that he would become the target of public criticism.

If this is just the emperor's imperial technique, which makes the princes' mansions of all parties feel a sense of crisis, and thus produces a kind of healthy competition, then Xuan Thirteen can still reluctantly accept it.

But if it was because of Lu Xun's matter, his father was angry with him, and used such words to make all the princes target him, then he couldn't accept this fact anyway.

From childhood to adulthood, Xuan Tiangao has been the belief in Xuan Thirteen's heart, even if he joined the Academy of Literary Teachers, his awe of his father has never changed.

It wasn't until outside the Crescent Moon Restaurant at that time, when Xuan Tiangao tried to make peace with Xuan Zhengzhao for the sake of Xuan Zhengzhao, that these beliefs of Xuan Thirteen changed slightly.

After today's incident, Xuan 13 finally realized that he probably didn't know anything about his father, and he was really the most ruthless of the royal family.

And in these days, the entire Great Xuan King, including many small vassal states, is ready to move, and the source of all these changes is because of the upcoming trial of the reincarnation sea.
