Chapter 199 Conflict
It was like a thunder sounding above Li Ming's head, which made him jump up suddenly. The old monk's words were undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, making him feel at a loss. In his opinion, the most ridiculous thing in the world was this. He really doubted whether the old monk was talking about his dreams.
Lin Long did not react much this time. She just snorted slightly and turned her eyes to Li Ming, as if she had already guessed the old monk's intention in her heart.
Li Ming's mind was blank at this moment, and he did not reply to the old monk for a moment. He didn't know what the old monk was trying to do, and he made such a ridiculous request to him, which made him completely unacceptable. He had met Princess Changle for no more than a whole day, and the two of them had not even said much serious words. Now the old monk actually said he wanted to marry the princess to him. How could he believe this? Not to mention that he already had a wife, even if he was still single now, he could not agree to him so hasty.
The old monk was very patient. Seeing that Li Ming had no answer for a long time, he just sat there looking at him tepidly, as if the request just now was not what he said. In the end, Lin Long couldn't help it and quietly pulled Li Ming's sleeve.
Li Ming turned his head to look at Lin Long, smiled comfortably, and then looked at the old monk and said, "I don't know what the master said just now, but the princess is a body of thousands of gold. How can you allow you, a person who is a transcendent, so nonsense? Today, for the sake of the master's explanation of my doubts, I will not pursue your words just now. However, if you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me. I originally thought that the ambassador was a monk who got it, but I didn't expect that you could not let go of all the worldly anger in your heart. To be honest, I was very disappointed. Since we were not speculating on our words, I would not disturb the master. Let's leave!" After that, I clasped my fists at the old monk and turned around and left.
The old monk's behavior was so strange that his words made Li Ming very uneasy, which made Li Ming feel very bad. In order to avoid the long nights and dreams, he made a quick decision and immediately said goodbye and left.
Seeing Li Ming so decisively and steady, the old monk who had always been as steady as a mountain became anxious. He stood up hurriedly and shouted loudly to Li Ming's back: "Prince, can't you finish listening to me? Is there the only one here? Is the prince still afraid? Please let me finish speaking, and then immediately tell the prince the truth about the death of the predecessor!"
The last sentence made Li Ming stop. He slowly turned around and looked at the old monk not far away and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I will listen to you. I hope you don't beat around the bush, otherwise I will not have this patience. The people who follow me are the ones I trust the most, so there is no problem when they hear it. Just talk here."
The old monk hesitated for a moment, but then the impatientness on Li Ming's face dispelled his idea of raising other conditions. Helplessly, he slowly approached Li Ming, with a sincere expression on his face, and said to him: "In fact, whether the prince believes it or not, I have to say what I think in my heart. I have not deceived the prince. In my heart, the prince is the best candidate for the princess's husband. For a long time, the prince has been my only sustenance. Over the years, I have trained her to be a hero of all-round talent in civil and military affairs, but at the same time it has also caused her to be arrogant and arrogant, so that she has been nineteen this year.
But she still has no ideal person to like. The old emperor had consulted her many times and provided all the princes in the court with her choice, but she had no choice but to her wishes. In a helpless manner, this matter was only delayed. However, since she met the prince in the Ming Palace last year, she never mentioned any man, but she kept your name on her lips. This made me very curious and wanted to inquire about the prince's news, but learned that the prince had returned to Biquan Island several times. For this matter, the princess had not been thinking about food for two or three months, so she did not want to eat."
"Okay! Don't say any extra words. I don't want to hear these reasons for you. These words are not enough to impress me. I know what the truth is. If you don't have anything else, I will really say goodbye." Li Ming interrupted the old monk's emotional narrative in time, turned around and left again.
"Prince! Don't you pity the hard work of an old man?" The old monk suddenly raised his voice and shouted at Li Ming.
Li Ming hesitated for a moment, then turned his head and smiled faintly, and said, "Everyone has his own standards for judging right and wrong, so Li Ming may have some misunderstandings about the master's words. However, please note that what you said is beyond my tolerance. If you continue to talk, it will make me think that you have ulterior motives. Therefore, if you don't matter, stop it, and stop asking me to marry the princess. This is not something I can bear, and I cannot accept it. If you want to continue to persuade me, I will never stay here for a long time. But if you want to tell me something about the previous emperor now, I, Li Ming, listen carefully."
The old monk's face suddenly appeared with anger. He looked at Li Ming, and his eyes gradually became cold. He shook his head slightly. He said to Li Ming with great regret: "I thought the prince was a person who could make the princess entrust her life, but I didn't expect that your vision was so short-sighted. Have you ever thought that although you are a prince now, you do not have royal blood and no relationship with the royal family. It was purely Li Song personally rewarded you. Once something happened to Li Song, do you still want to be here? However, after you became a kin to the princess, it was completely different. At that time, you were a royal relative.
The prince is justified. No matter who controls the world in the future, your relationship with the royal family will be here. Moreover, with your strength and the name of the princess, you can make you have greater development in the future. I have no convincing to say that these things are powerful, so let the princess talk to you in person. Prince, the princess is now in the meditation room behind me. Please go in alone, and the others will stay outside. In addition, the princess has a person who is directly related to the death of the former emperor. This person is very much wanted to see him." After saying that, she turned slightly and made an invitation gesture for Li Ming.
When the old monk first talked about those attractive conditions, Li Ming felt secretly funny. How could he know the ambition of a swan? This old saying is true. According to the old monk, perhaps Li Ming was satisfied that he could maintain the position of the prince in front of him, but how could he know that Li Ming's ambition was the whole world? Therefore, he was not moved at all by the old monk's preaching. On the one hand, he had no emotional foundation with the princess, which was unacceptable to Li Ming, who came from modern society.
Yes, on the other hand, the princess gave him a very bad impression. Since the last time she was in the imperial city, Li Ming classified her as Li Qing and his gang, so he had no good feelings for her, and was also full of vigilance towards her. If such a person appears in his own circle of life, it would be better to kill him. Therefore, she has no intention of accepting the princess. After all, with her current strength and current situation, it is not difficult to gain a decisive advantage within two or three years. Why bother to add some trouble to her life?
Therefore, when the old monk said this, Li Ming almost couldn't help but leave again, but the old monk's last few words made him dispel the idea. The princess had the key figure in her hands? Who was that? Even the loyal old Huangmen Yang Ping could not find clues from the maid Tai Jian in the palace. Where did the princess in front of her get this key figure from?
Thinking of this, he turned his head and exchanged glances with Lin Long, but from her eyes, Li Ming saw Lin Long's dissatisfaction and vigilance, which made him give up his decision to be aggressive. After all, he not only had to worry about Lin Long's mood, but also had to obey her opinions. Since she thought it was not safe, Li Ming would never take risks easily.
So, he looked at the old monk again and said, "Master, I admit that you made a lot of sense, but in this complex situation, how can you let me believe you? We have never met before, and what you said is a one-sided word. No one will prove what you said, how can I believe you? After all, I am the regent who is in charge of the fate of the Tang Dynasty. How can I take risks for an old monk who I don't know? Therefore, if I let me in, I must bring the guards."
The old monk's face returned to calm again. He looked at Li Ming with a faint smile and said, "Prince, everything I have proposed is tolerant enough. It is related to your piety and destiny. I hope you will consider it carefully. If you don't believe me, then you can leave now. I am not going to force it anymore." At this point, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. As soon as his last trump card was released, he began to be assured when facing Li Ming.
Lin Long next to him was already angry at the old monk's proposal. Now, seeing the old monk's smug look, he couldn't help but shout angrily: "Old monk, young master is here to be more aggressive. If you want the prince to make progress today, I must follow you. Don't think you can stop me and force me to be too anxious. Our county will break in now, and see what ability you, the dry old man, have to stop me!"
The old monk's face suddenly turned dark. He looked at Lin Long coldly, and said in a tone of disgust: "Who are you? What qualifications do you have to say this to me? The reason why Li Ming is unwilling to marry the princess is probably because of you? I'm going to die. I know you are Lin Lingfeng's daughter, but so what? If the prince wants to keep his wealth and boundless power in the future, he must marry the princess. At that time, it would be nice to be more tolerant and let you be a concubine, so you'd better be honest now." When he said this, the old monk's image as a monk just now was lost, and he was actually like a gangster and his expression. The rapid change made Li Ming stunned.
Lin Long was fond of seeing the old monk at this time. When he heard his unbearable words, he couldn't help but feel angry and shouted loudly: "The thief was bald and looked for death!" Then he slapped out his palm and headed straight to the old monk's chest as fast as lightning. Lin Long was furious. This palm was used very rarely to use ten success powers, and he deliberately wanted to hit the old monk seriously injure him.
The old monk's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations. Lin Long's palm attack at close range would have been caught off guard, but the old monk reacted in time, quickly raised his palms, and took Lin Long's palm down.
Although Lin Long used 100% of this palm, when the two internal forces collided, there was no trace of palm force coming out, and all the energy was accepted by the other party. Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, the fight between these two people was completely different from the earth-shaking momentum of ordinary martial arts people when they fought. The palm fight was completely silent, without even a slight sound. Moreover, after the two people fought with three palms, there was a brief pause.
Suddenly, the old monk trembled all over, and quickly took several steps back to stabilize his body. Then, he forced a mouthful of blood to swallow. On the other hand, Lin Long looked at the old monk coldly, and there was a look of mockery in his eyes. Obviously, the battle between masters ended with Lin Long's victory.
He smiled bitterly, and blood flowed down the corner of his mouth. The old monk looked at Lin Long and began to look ferocious. He suddenly raised his hand and slapped him a few times.
With the sound, more than a dozen figures quickly jumped out of the forest around the vegetable field, and tightly surrounded Lin Ming and Lin Long.
Li Ming was shocked and quickly leaned against Lin Long, pulled out the sword of the Heavenly Sword on his waist, ready to start an arduous battle. At the same time, he let out a long roar. Judging from the skills of the people, he could only barely block one of them, and Lin Long would be quite difficult to face more than ten such people at the same time, especially there was an old monk next to him who was even more skilled. Although he was seriously injured, he could still stand up after all, which would put a lot of pressure on Lin Long. Therefore, before his five hundred personal guards arrived, he and Lin Long had to withstand the full attack of these people. Although this period may only take more than one minute, for the masters, a chance of one second would be fatal. As for the personal guard he brought, he was unable to effectively form a powerful three-talent formation, so he could not pose a threat to these people.
The old monk then relaxed the expression on his face, smiled dryly at Li Ming, and said, "Prince, don't misunderstand me, I have no intention of dealing with you at all. But, the princess's instructions must be done as expected. Since she does not allow you to take other people to see her, this girl will definitely not be able to go in. As long as you can do as I tell you, there is absolutely no danger. Prince, don't expect your guards, they are now entangled by my people."—
I have opened a new book "Cloud Road", which can be updated normally. I hope that friends who like foreign lands can come and support them more. Let's talk about whether they like it or not, haha.
