Above the stars

Yan Wenli looked at Tang Bandit in shock.

When Tang Bao looked at him with inquiring eyes just now, he knew that this boy suspected that he had leaked his secrets and told him about his face-to-face admission that he liked the princess.

However, he never said anything about the conscience of heaven and earth.

He knew Zhong Daolong's attitude towards Tang bandits, and there was no way he would hand over his precious daughter to a baseless boy.

In this case, why should I be such a bad person in the middle?

It not only offended the Tang bandits, but also made Zhong Daolong feel uncomfortable.

It is of no benefit to others, and it is of no benefit to oneself.

He was unwilling to do such useless work.

Imperial officials all called him a "mad dog," but no one ever called him a "silly dog."

But why did Tang Bandit expose himself now?

Don’t want to live anymore?

Or did he think that he had informed the king of the country, so he simply broke the jar and struggled to the death?

What an idiot.

Absolutely stupid.

Zhong Daolong slammed the whiskey glass in his hand on the moonstone table, making a crisp sound. He stared at Tang Bandit with stern eyes and said in a deep voice: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know, it's reckless, but it's really what I mean."

Tang Bandit knelt down and rested his forehead on the ground. His voice was frightened, but it made people feel extremely sincere.

"I know that our identities are very different. I am not even qualified to carry Her Highness the Princess's shoes. Without Her Highness's help, my brother and I would still be hunting three-headed sheep and mutant beasts in the old land."

"However, liking this kind of thing cannot be controlled by myself. Although I come from the old land and have a low status, I don't have any advantages except relying on the support of the king and the dean."

It was particularly long, and he couldn't show it in front of the king.

Walking at night in brocade clothes is very frustrating.

Fortunately, he has a confidant who is good at playing the flute.

Well, there will definitely be some in the future.

"But, if you like it, you just like it. There is no difference between me liking Her Highness the Princess and Shen Xinglan and Qin Jianyi liking Her Highness the Princess."

"Huh?" Zhong Daolong looked at Tang Bandit with doubtful eyes.

What does it mean?

There is no difference between you liking Phoenix and Shen Xinglan and Qin Jianyi liking Phoenix.

They have no chance, and neither do you?

Is it just a simple liking among young people? The unrequited love in Tang Bandit's heart, but there was no response from Phoenix?

My daughter is so outstanding and there are countless young heroes who like her.

Shen Xinglan can like him, Qin Jianyi can like him, and there are countless suitors.

Then, Tang Bandit would naturally like it too.

Even if you don't want Tang Bandit to be your son-in-law, you can't punish a man just because he likes your daughter.

Yan Wenli also looked at Tang Bandit with strange eyes, knowing in his heart that this guy was secretly changing his mind.

The "like" he said at this time and the "like" he said when he admitted to her face that he liked the princess were two different kinds of like.

This time's love was ideal, that time's love was reality.

Zhong Daolong looked at Tang Bandit and asked aloud: "You said you like it?"

"That is the secret hidden deep in the heart of the humble position." Tang Bandit's face was gloomy, like a helpless young man who was deeply hurt, and he said with sadness: "The humble position knows the gap between himself and Her Royal Highness, how can he open his eyes? Got it?"

"Even if I can open my mouth, wouldn't it make things difficult for Her Majesty the Princess? I'm afraid that we won't be able to be friends by then."

Zhong Daolong picked up the whiskey on the table again and took a sip. He looked at Tang Bandit and asked, "What does this have to do with your intention to enter the Overwatch Council?"

"Doing something you know you can't do is brave but also stupid." Tang Bandit looked up at Zhong Daolong and said loudly: "I was thinking, if I work harder, will I be closer to the princess?"

"So, when the king found me, I agreed without hesitation. I want to serve the king and the Overwatch Council."

"Lu Siyu from the Lu family and I are classmates. The Lu family is kind to me and has helped me with some very important things."

"However, after I received the Lu family's case, I jumped into it without any hesitation. I took the lead and charged into the battle. No matter who was involved, I enforced the law impartially and without mercy. As a result, you have also seen that I treated Lu The family is offended to the point of death."

"If I were to find someone who the Lu family hates the most, it would have to be me, right? However, I know what I am doing and I have no regrets in my heart."

"If that's the case, then why did you suddenly resign? It's a pity and hateful to do things halfway."

"Master, I'm afraid." Tang Bandit looked at Zhong Daolong and said helplessly: "I just finished checking the Lu family, and now the Yu family is coming. Although I have not been in Xinxing for a long time, I also know that the Yu family is What kind of prominent family I can't afford to offend."

Zhong Daolong pretended to be angry and said: "What? Are you afraid that I can't protect you?"

Tang Bandi glanced at Yan Wenli and said aloud: "I asked Dean Yan. Dean Yan said that if Mrs. Yu comes to the door in person, he can't handle it, and neither can you."

"." Yan Wenli.

I have said this, but I don’t want you to use it at this time.

You brat, you stabbed my teacher to death.

Zhong Daolong glanced at Yan Wenli and said loudly: "If Mr. Yu comes to ask for someone, based on the relationship between me and him, this face must be given."

"But if someone is trying to do something against you, and that involves harming a state official, that's a different story."

"What if someone killed me first and then said I was wrong?"

"He dares. In my Phoenix Empire, who dares to do such a thing?"

Tang Bandit understood the profound meaning of Zhong Daolong's words. His answer was that others did not dare, not what would happen if someone did it to him.

This is a way of escape.

So Tang Bandit expressed his attitude again and said: "I have now investigated the Lu family and Yu family, and my relationship with the Qin family, one of the nine major families, is not very good. I have hated three of the nine major families. I'm afraid that if I continue to investigate like this, I will completely offend the nine major families."

"If the royal family cannot stand up to protect me at that time, I am afraid that I will die without a burial place. It would not be a pity for me to die alone, and I have a younger brother. I am afraid that he will not be able to save his life."

Zhong Daolong looked unkind and said, "You are so greedy for life and afraid of death, but you still want to marry my daughter?"

"The king also knows that I come from the old land. In that place where the living environment is extremely harsh, the first rule we follow is to live, and we must survive no matter what. Because there is nothing more important than living. "

Zhong Daolong was silent.

After a long while, he looked at Tang Bandit and asked, "Do you want a guarantee?"

"Yes." Tang Bandit nodded without hesitation and said: "I want to know, what exactly are we doing? What step should we take? Will we be the final winner? It doesn't have to be me, but is it the leader of the country? "

This is what Tang Bandit wants to do, this is the answer he wants to get.

He knew that Zhong Daolong wanted to suppress the nine major families, or to clean up the influence of the nine major families.

However, the nine major families are deeply rooted and have amazing influence.

If we start a war with the nine major families at the same time, the impact will be bad and may even shake the country.

Zhong Daolong is not an idiot, how could he do such a thing?

Therefore, among these nine major families, there must be his supporters.

Winning over a group of people and cleaning up a group of people is the right way.

What Tang Bandit needs to figure out is who is being roped in? Who is going to be cleaned up?

Knowing this information, he and the old man would have greater initiative in acting.

What you clean up, I win over.

You win over, I attack.

In this way, we can take advantage of the situation to advance and use our strength to gain strength.

Only then can their great cause of revenge be achieved with half the effort.

This is also the reason why Tang Gao resigned immediately at the right time, in order to "force the palace" at this critical moment.

He pursued and beat the Lu family fiercely in order to show his loyalty.

He sent Gongshu Wuyu and Lu Yunhang to prison in order to prove his ability.

During the time he entered the Overwatch Council, Tang Bandit had already proven his worth.

Besides, it's human nature to be "fearful".

He was a young man with no foundation, yet he rushed forward without any thought when he encountered a behemoth like the Yu family.

First, it proves that this person is short-sighted. People who are short-sighted will not be respected by others.

Second, it proves that this person exerts too much force, is too desperate, and is too loyal.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster, and two onlookers, Zhong Daolong and Yan Wenli, may have doubts about his true intentions.

If Zhong Daolong and Yan Wenli still want to use his "quick knife", they must show their sincerity appropriately.

At least give him a guarantee.

And, identify him as one of our own.

Zhong Daolong looked at Tang Bandit thoughtfully and asked, "What? Are you worried that I will lose?"

He knew that since Bandit Tang asked this question, it proved that he had already guessed some clues.

In the game, as the sharpest knife. Are you qualified to know more?

"No, I'm not worried about this. The king is strategizing and winning thousands of miles away. Since he takes the lead, he must be sure of victory." Tang Bandit said with a firm face: "It's just that this process makes me very scared."

"Why are you so scared?"

"Because I don't know who is the enemy and who is one of our own."

"You want to know if I have any trump cards or back-ups?"

"Same meaning."

Zhong Daolong stared deeply at Tang Bandit's head lying in front of him, and asked in a deep voice: "Tang Bandit, can I believe you?"

Tang Bandit raised his head, looked into Zhong Daolong's eyes without fear, and replied loudly: "Master, I think I have proven my loyalty."

"Besides, how can I gain a foothold in Xinxing without the royal family's care?"

"With my current situation, as long as the royal family shows any signs of alienating me, countless people will want to take my head."

"Grand master disciples will not be beheaded by others casually." Zhong Daolong said aloud.

Tang Bandit understands that Zhong Daolong means that you are not only relying on the royal family, but the power of Egret Academy and the Grand Master can still protect you.

"The Grand Master can protect me for a while, but he cannot protect me forever. He is a divine figure and is not willing to interfere with the worldly affairs."

"What's more, the Grand Master has always been in seclusion for three to five years. If someone really kills me, by the time the Grand Master comes out of seclusion, I'm afraid not even my bones will be left."

"Even if the Grand Master takes action at that time to find and kill the person who harmed me, what good will it do to me?"

Zhong Daolong thought for a moment, then looked at Tang Bandit and said: "Get up and speak. My fair lady, a gentleman is very jealous. It is human nature to like the woman you like. What is there to kneel to?"

"Thank you, Lord." Tang Bandit got up from the ground.

He knew that Zhong Daolong's attitude had relaxed somewhat, and his performance, no, his performance still made him very satisfied.

Otherwise, if you disobey your superiors and resign if you don't agree with me, just kneel down to me.

As the saying goes, being with a king is like being with a tiger.

If a tiger doesn't show off its power, do you really think it's hellokitty?

Next, do you want to have some intimate words with me?

Sure enough, Zhong Daolong looked at Yan Wenli and said loudly: "Although this boy is so bold that he dares to show off his face in front of Dean Yan, but what he said makes some sense."

"There is nothing more important than living. After finally coming from the old land to the new star, I always hope to live a few more years and die in peace."

Yan Wenli understood what Zhong Daolong meant, so he also borrowed the donkey from Poxia and echoed: "Yes, although he doesn't speak well, he is also an honest man. He is a worker. If he only knows how to immerse himself in work, it will prove that The brain is not bright enough. But once a person's brain is bright, he will have more ideas."

Yan Wenli nodded at Tang Bandit and said with a smile: "He belongs to the second type."

"Yes." Zhong Daolong nodded, looked at Tang Bandit and said, "Tang Bandit, I am willing to believe you, and I hope you will not betray my trust in you."

"From now on, everything I say is top secret. No matter how dangerous the situation is, you must not leak anything to the outside world at any time."

"Yes, I swear, if I leak a word to the outside world, I will be struck by lightning and die." Tang Bandit made a solemn oath without hesitation.

Tang Bandit was also very nervous when he swore for the first time. He was afraid that the oath would actually come true.

However, for things like vows, you will get used to it as soon as you make them.

The Thunder God and Lightning Mother are also very busy. There are so many scumbags that can’t be beaten, so how can they have time to take care of you?

"This is idealistic." Zhong Daolong waved his hand and said loudly: "I don't believe in these weird things. If it really leaks out from you, I have my own way to deal with it."

"Yes, I understand." Tang Bandit said respectfully.

He heard the threat in Zhong Daolong's words.

"The outside world knows that I want to take back the power of the nine major families. However, they are also guessing, why do I have the courage to do such a thing? Where is my confidence?"

Zhong Daolong dipped the middle finger of his right hand into the whiskey glass and wrote three beautiful little words on the white moonstone table: "They are my confidence."

"The surnames of the three families are forgotten as soon as you see them." Yan Wenli reminded him with a serious expression.
