As soon as the woman finished speaking, a figure appeared beside the woman, that was Tianlao who had been hiding behind Xiao Xiao to protect Xiaoxiao.
The old man bowed slightly and said: "Her Royal Highness the little princess is right here."
The woman nodded slightly, then slowly exhaled and murmured: "It's been really hard on her these past years."
Tianlao sighed and said: "The little princess has always refused to return to the imperial capital. This time, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess comes here in person. I wonder if I can convince the little princess."
The woman's face was calm. She was the eldest daughter of the King of Tianwu Dynasty, Murong Ziying, who was also Xiao Xiao's biological sister.
Murong Ziying was also very unfamiliar with her sister. She had only seen her when Xiao Xiao was born. At that time, Murong Ziying was only five years old.
Would a sister who has never seen her recognize her as her sister? Besides, Xiao Xiao has been living in a poor town for these years, which is a hardship for members of the royal family.
Murong Ziying sighed, "No matter what, we still have to take Ziling back. There is not much time left for us in the imperial capital."
Hearing Murong Ziying's words, Tianlao was slightly startled. He was also relatively clear about the affairs in the imperial capital. Now perhaps only Xiao Xiao can have a glimmer of hope if he returns.
"Although Her Royal Highness the little princess is a little willful, she is always obedient to one person." Tian Lao said slowly.
Murong Ziying said calmly: "Are you talking about the person named Xiao Yu?"
Tianlao nodded, "That little guy is extremely talented. Xiao Xiao is already a two-dimensional martial artist at his age, and he is also a first-class soul master."
"Oh?" Murong Ziying was slightly surprised. There were not many soul masters in the Tianwu Dynasty, and there were only three people loyal to the royal family.
Murong Ziying also knew how difficult it was to practice as a soul master, because he had tried it before but failed in the end, so he knew very well how difficult it was to become a soul master.
And Xiao Yu has already become a first-class soul master at such an age, and his future will definitely be unlimited. You must know that the soul masters who serve the royal family are all old men. It is almost impossible to make progress, but
Xiao Yu still has a lot of capital.
If Xiao Yu can be roped in to serve the royal family, the royal family's status will also be consolidated.
"If we drag Xiao Yu into the royal family, then Zi Ling will definitely follow us back, right?" Murong Ziying smiled slightly, then looked at Tian Lao and said.
Tianlao smiled and said: "Ideally, this is true, but it is not easy to win over Xiao Yu."
"Oh? How do you say this?" Murong Ziying was a little confused. The conditions given by the royal family must be the best. If you can serve the royal family, you can live a carefree life in the future. How many temptations can there be like this?
Can an individual refuse?
Tianlao said: "Xiao Yu has lofty ambitions and will definitely not be willing to stay in the Tianwu Dynasty. Even if the eldest princess puts forward higher demands, it may be difficult to impress him."
Murong Ziying was slightly startled, her eyes suddenly turned cold, "Leave the Tianwu Dynasty?"
Seeing the look in Murong Ziying's eyes, Tian Lao knew what Murong Ziying was thinking, so he said: "Eldest Princess, don't worry, even if Xiao Yu leaves the Tianwu Dynasty, he will not join any other dynasty because he has no interest in fame and fortune.
interest."
Murong Ziying was startled again and said lightly: "It seems you know him very well."
Tianlao said: "I often stay with the little princess and know Xiao Yu quite well. This person only wants to protect his family and improve his strength. As for the rest, it seems to have nothing to do with him."
After hearing this, Murong Ziying's eyes softened and she said: "If we can't win over Xiao Yu, then it seems a little difficult for Ziling to go back obediently."
God is helpless. He has tried to persuade her many times, but to no avail. Even if Murong Ziying comes in person this time, there is not much possibility.
Murong Ziying looked at the Soul Sect, her eyes condensed, looking a little cold, and said: "If it really doesn't work, then we can only use special means."
When Tianlao heard this, he could only sigh. As a member of the royal family, he has to consider the royal family throughout his life. He has no final say in his own life, but everything has been arranged. All he has to do is follow it.
.
This is the sad thing about the royal family, but outsiders are still envious of them.
"Come on, let's go in. It seems to be very lively inside today." Murong Ziying said, walking towards the Soul Sect with a calm face.
Tianlao was also following behind. Behind Tianlao, there were more than a dozen guards, including Xiao Wei, each of whom was a one-yuan martial artist with the lowest strength. Such a lineup was worthy of being the controller of the Tianwu Dynasty.
Within the Soul Sect, everyone is talking and laughing. Regardless of whether there is any grudge before, no one dares to show dissatisfaction here, let alone take action. It is simply self-destruction.
Therefore, the whole banquet seemed to be a happy one, but many discerning people could see how many smiling tigers there were, and how many of them were here to curry favor with powerful forces.
Just when everyone was drinking happily, Murong Ziying walked in with a group of people. At this time, the entire banquet hall became quiet.
Because everyone who came here was not weak in strength, but they discovered that the strength of those wearing armor was at the level of a martial artist. Even the city lord's palace did not have such luxury with such a lineup.
So who are they?
Xiao Yu stood up and looked at these people who had come out of nowhere. He would not show dissatisfaction rashly until he understood the situation.
Not far away, Xiao Xiao's expression changed drastically, because the appearance of Tianlao made her know that these must be members of the royal family.
When Zhao Wuji saw Tianlao, who was standing respectfully behind the woman, he was even more surprised. He quickly stepped forward and bowed: "Zhao Wuji respectfully welcomes the Zuo Protector."
Tianlao said in a calm tone: "Zhao Wuji, I haven't met the eldest princess yet."
Zhao Wuji's heart trembled, and everyone else's faces were full of astonishment. What do the words "eldest princess" mean?
Represents strength, power, status
Zhao Wuji reacted quickly, bent his body even more, and said tremblingly: "Master of Dragon Blood City, Zhao Wuji didn't know that the eldest princess was here, so he didn't go far to greet her. Please forgive me for my sins."
Murong Ziying said calmly: "No courtesy."
"Princess Xie." Zhao Wuji was already sweating profusely. If he was a little careless, he would be doomed.
Murong Ziying's eyes slightly scanned everyone present, and then stopped on Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao's body trembled, and then he raised his little head and stared at Murong Ziying.
Zhao Wuji instead said to everyone: "The eldest princess is here, why don't you pay her respects soon?"
Everyone woke up, hurriedly stood up, bowed and said: "See the eldest princess."
Murong Ziying ignored it and said calmly: "Zi Ling, it's been so long, shouldn't it be time to go back?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at Xiao Xiao in astonishment, and they all murmured in their hearts, what kind of relationship does this little girl from the Xiao family have with the royal family.
Xiao Yu understood something in his heart, and then looked at Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao said extremely unhappily: "I will not go back, so don't waste your efforts."
