Chapter 963: Dingguo Ancient Crown
Play on your own?
To say that Liu Heng didn't consider it was a lie, but this idea was just lightly put together, and it was quickly dispelled. First, he has no intention of the supreme throne, and secondly, the dispute between the prince is too big, those who want to fish in troubled waters are not counted, the real powerful competitors, everyone represents a huge force, and with Liu Heng's current capital, there is almost no chance of winning.
Besides, what if he wins, Liu Heng knows that he is not that material, and he is at a loss to govern the military and civilian affairs of a county now, let alone govern a country in the future. Moreover, the Holy Struggle had arrived, no matter where it was, the Holy Family, the Powerful School, or the various realms had become in danger, and he thought that he could not afford such a big stall as Great Xia.
Rather than inadequately trying to do what we can, it is better to honestly seek to defend this small Decameron City, gather the strongest strength in one place, and have a greater hope of overcoming the catastrophe.
"Why did you suddenly remember to say this?"
What Liu Heng didn't expect was that these words might come from many people's mouths, but now they came from the most unlikely big four.
The senior was silent for a moment, and then spoke slowly, "We've known each other for almost five years, right?"
"Almost. Liu Heng replied.
"Familiar to me, why don't you ever ask me how I call it?" asked the senior instead.
Liu Heng smiled, "I recognize you as a person, and it's not a false name, is it important what your name is? Just like me, not only do you change your name, but even your appearance changes often, but you haven't questioned it?"
He just spread out the things he avoided talking about when he came back.
Although he didn't know why, Liu Heng felt very clearly that from the time he came back to convene the old reunion, the eyes of the senior were very different, as if he recognized him at a glance. In other words, the senior knows that he is not Liu Heng, and he can also see one or two from today's unusual visit.
Hearing this, the senior was really shocked, then looked at Liu Heng, and then looked at "Liu Neng" behind Liu Heng, and his eyebrows gradually stretched.
"I don't know the general, but I still remember this face. ”
The senior reached into his neck, slowly pulled it up, and actually tore off a thin layer of flesh-colored film from his face, revealing a hard and handsome face, which made Liu Heng's eyes widen suddenly. used to be a senior in college, with a vicissitudes of life, looking at least forty years old, this mask showed his true face, and he looked like he was ten years younger immediately, and his temperament had changed dramatically. When I first met my senior year, my senior looked like a living person, and it was like an internal combustion barrel, which exploded at one point, and was very violent.
This change is still secondary, Liu Heng is more concerned about the words of the senior, staring at the senior for a long time, and hesitated: "Déjà vu." ”
Liu Heng does have the ability to never forget, but this is not omnipotent. For example, the face of the senior at this moment did give Liu Heng a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it somewhere, but for a while it reminded him of where he had seen it, which was not difficult.
"It's normal for the general to remember me, and it took me a long time to determine when and where I first met the general, after all, it was at least seven years ago. After hearing Liu Heng's words, the senior was not annoyed, and muttered.
Seven years ago?
Liu Heng was very surprised, because seven years ago, he had just set foot in the rivers and lakes at most, and he couldn't imagine how he could meet his senior year at that time.
The senior smiled, as if he was a little distracted, "Seven years ago in the Wuling Mountains, that little scholar who followed the You family and a martial arts overlord was a general, right?"
Liu Heng was even more surprised, "At that time?"
The Lotus Sect Immortal Mansion can be said to be the first big scene he encountered after entering the rivers and lakes, there are dozens of overlords who have appeared, and the number of remaining overlord disciples is even more amazing, as well as people and horses of various forces, which can be described as a mixture of fish and dragons. So even if the senior year prompts to this point, Liu Heng still needs to compare the countless faces in his memory one by one, which is definitely a huge process.
"The reason why I can remember the general is only because I heard the prince specifically mention the general at that time, saying that he was a peerless genius who came out of my Great Xia. ”
The senior smiled, but Liu Heng was shocked physically and mentally, "You, you are!"
"I am indeed the old part of the prince. The senior smile gradually retracted, "Now it's just a remnant who is wanted for various crimes." ”
In just one sentence, the content revealed was too complicated, which made Liu Heng moved.
"You came to me today and confessed, what do you want me to do?" After a while, Liu Heng asked slowly.
The senior was surprised, "You don't want to ask, as the old part of the prince, how did I become a remnant wanted for all kinds of crimes?"
Liu Heng looked at him, a little helpless, "Okay, what's the matter?"
"The crown prince did not die from the assassination of Beihu!" said the senior solemnly.
Liu Heng's expression remained unchanged, and he looked at him fixedly, "And then?"
"And then?" the senior was stunned, "what else, then, why aren't you surprised at all?"
Liu Heng couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, "I said, you are really not suitable to be a lobbyist, why didn't Bai Mingze come by himself?"
"You!"
For the first time, the senior looked surprised, "When did you find out?"
This guy, Liu Heng really didn't know what to say, "You and he are old acquaintances, you can ask Bai Mingze, he should have known that I guessed it." ”
The senior looked a few times, and then laughed at himself: "I thought it was so good to hide, and daring to love was just self-deception." ”
"No, at least I didn't think you were the prince's man. Liu Heng said seriously.
The senior shook his head when he heard this, and he didn't get any comfort, "General, it's normal for you not to point it out, but that guy Lao Bai ...... It's hateful!"
Liu Heng asked again: "So I'm curious, how could it be that you came, not him?"
"I guess it's because people's hearts are fickle. The senior seemed to be a little stunned, "In the past few years, he seems to have completely put down the prince's affairs and doesn't want to get involved anymore." ”
Liu Heng nodded and stared deeply at the senior, "So, what about you?"
"I can't let it go!" the senior clenched his fists, "As long as I think that the prince did not die in the killing field, did not die in the hands of the enemy, but died in the conspiracy of those treacherous villains, I just want to kill!"
Liu Heng recalled the prince who had a relationship with him in the past, and sighed in his heart, "Can you tell me, have you found the real murderer?"
The senior looked gloomy when he heard this, and finally shook his head in pain.
"It's been four or five years, why haven't you found out the real culprit yet?" Liu Heng frowned.
The senior year's face became more and more gloomy, "After all, the prince is gone, without him in charge, people's hearts are gradually dispersed, and the opponent has been keeping an eye on this matter, often we finally find some clues, and we are immediately cut off, resulting in slow progress in the past few years." ”
Liu Heng can understand that the situation is definitely different whether the prince is there or not.
I have to admit that the prince is definitely a very charming person, Rao is Liu Heng and he have only one side relationship, and he still remembers it vividly, which can be seen from this. Such a person can summon all kinds of heroes to serve him, but once he is gone, he is destined to collapse like a tree, and the vines attached to it will naturally no longer be able to condense as before.
Perhaps in the beginning, everyone can work together because of a sense of resentment, but as time passes, no matter how strong the emotions are, they will gradually return to calm, giving rise to various thoughts.
The dead are gone, but the living still need to think about their future.
Just like Bai Mingze and the senior, they may represent the current situation of the prince's old department, and it is difficult to return to the time when they were as united as before.
"In that case, what do you want me to do when you come to me?" Liu Heng asked seriously.
The senior hesitated, and finally took a deep breath, "Until now, the real murderer is hard to find, but I have gradually figured it out, instead of dwelling on the old things, it is better to take the initiative." After our analysis, the real culprit of the murder of the prince must be hidden in the competitors of this prince dispute, the reason why they killed the prince is nothing more than that they are still loyal to that position, and now that they can't find the real murderer, they simply let them die again, let them ask for it!"
Liu Heng took a sip of tea, "So you came to me because you wanted me to be the one who destroyed their ambitions, but I can't figure it out, why did you choose me? You know, even if I really want to be a competitor, the success is too slim." ”
The senior smiled, "Because you are the only one, there is no suspicion of murdering the prince." ”
As soon as he said this, Liu Heng was stunned, the reason for daring to love was very simple, just because he was too weak, but he seemed innocent, and this reason really made him cry and laugh.
"Since you are so frank, then I will tell the truth. Liu Heng put down the teacup, "First, I don't have this idea, and second, my strength is not worth mentioning, even if I fight, I have no chance of winning." ”
The senior didn't quite agree, "If it's just you, it's really like hitting a stone with an egg, but if you add us to the old prince's department, it's very different." ”
"Oh?"
Liu Heng was surprised, "You can still have this kind of power?"
"The general is too underestimated. The senior said dissatisfiedly: "Although we don't have many soldiers and horses, and we don't have much power, but which one of the people who could follow the prince back then was weak? It's not that I'm proud, and it's not easy for all of us to survive until now! If they can all assist the general, why worry about big things?"
Liu Heng was distracted, because he had never seen the arrogance of the senior year now.
However, even he had to admit that if he didn't say much, just talk about the senior and Bai Mingze, you can see how powerful the people in the prince's old department are now. Don't look at the two of them on weekdays, but even so, they can deliver things to them many times, and then be completely assured that it is not easy to do this.
"The dispute between the princes is not so simple. Coming back to his senses, Liu Heng still shook his head, "If you want to participate in the competition, you have to enter the virtual realm in the Dingguo Ding, I heard that you need to personally grant a thing from the imperial court to have this qualification." ”
"Isn't it the ancient crown of the country?"
The senior didn't care, took out something from his arms and threw it in front of Liu Heng, "Did the general forget again, didn't the prince participate in the last prince dispute, how could this thing be missing?"
Dingguo Ancient Crown?
Liu Heng couldn't help but look in front of him, but saw that this was an antique copper crown, only half the size of a palm, which was by no means a popular style at the moment, whether it was carved or jeweled, it looked like it was at least a hundred years ago, and there was nothing special about it.
"This is the ...... of entering the void Voucher?" Liu Heng picked it up and looked at it carefully, purely out of curiosity, "Why is it in your hand?"
The senior smiles became a little far-fetched, "There were ten generals under the crown prince in the past, the first and second ranked followed the prince, and the third ranked became a sick man, and was secluded in the old East Palace, isn't it my turn?"
Hearing this, Liu Heng suddenly looked at him with a surprised gaze, really unexpected.
The name "Dare to Love the Senior" came from this way, but Liu Heng looked left and right, and he couldn't connect the senior in front of him with the fierce general, one of the ten tigers under the legendary prince.
"Does the general think I'm not like me?" snorted the senior.
Liu Heng shook his head, and finally put the ancient crown back in front of him, making Da Si's face change sharply, "General, what do you mean by this?"
"I understand what you mean, but I really don't mean to participate in the competition, so I'd better give it to someone who has a heart. Liu Heng said seriously.
The senior chest rose and fell violently, stared at Liu Heng for a moment, got up and snorted heavily, "I'm a rough person, I can't speak, so I will repeat to you what the prince said when he deliberately blocked the pursuit of your pursuers." The crown prince said at the time, 'If he is still alive that day, it can be regarded as a helping hand, and maybe he will be able to bring him back to serve the country in the future.' Today's matter, even if it is to repay the overlord of another country for cultivating the pillars of Daxia for me'. ”
"I can't find any other use for this thing except for you, so it's up to you to use it or not. The prince was full of enthusiasm for this Great Xia in the past, and only looked forward to changing the sun and moon to a new day in the coming day, if the prince knew about it, after seeing him go, no one in the world would be really for the Great Xia, I don't know what kind of mood it is. ”
Liu Heng was stunned, the senior had already gotten up and left, but the words when he left seemed to be still echoing in the room.
A new day?
The ambition of the prince can make people's hearts stir at any time.
I don't know how long it has been, Liu Heng shook his head, sighed silently, and didn't know where to place this Dingguo ancient crown, and hesitated slightly, so he could only temporarily put it in Dahong Temple.
In today's situation, if you really want to fight for the prince, it means that Liu Heng will have to carry a lot of things. If you want to succeed, you must rely on the old prince's department, such as Dasi, Bai Mingze, etc., even if they don't mention it themselves, once they succeed in the future, Liu Heng must give them a satisfactory answer to the case of "the prince's assassination". If there is turmoil today, if you become the crown prince, you will be prepared to support the entire Great Xia to survive the catastrophe of "holy contention".
These things are heavier and heavier, if you don't think about whether you can bear it, then it's better not to move this thought, it is by no means an easy thing that can be dealt with in a word.
"It's time to practice. Put away the ancient crown, Liu Heng got rid of distracting thoughts, and his heart was like stopping water, "Say a thousand ways and ten thousand, after all, you are the foundation!"
