Chapter 38: The Black Robe
The dragon order is here!Commander Meng still doesn't kneel!" Meng Yu saw this thing clearly, and the whole person was stunned, but Wei Lai shouted loudly at that time.
Meng Zhi was excited, his body was weak, and he knelt down with a plop.
Although the surrounding armor soldiers were still unclear, seeing that their own commander was like this, they naturally didn't dare to make a mistake, and they also knelt down one after another.
Wei Lai lowered his eyes and looked at Meng Zhi, who was kneeling on the ground and was sincerely afraid, and whispered: "Since Commander Meng still recognizes this Long Xiang Order, let him go." ”
When Meng Wei heard this, his face changed.
This person was escorted by Jin Buyun, and if he was released like this, he would definitely not be able to deal with him when he returned to Jin Buyun. But at this moment, Long Xiang's order is here, if he doesn't obey, with this Wei Lai's temperament, he will inevitably be labeled a traitor. He had heard about the way this Wei Gongzi behaved in Ningxiao City for many days, and for a while he was a little difficult to ride a tiger.
"Gongzi Wei, Your Majesty gave the Long Xiang Order to the crown prince, that is the trust of the prince, you are so arrogant, without the slightest evidence, you want me to let go of these traitors and spread them to Your Majesty, but the reputation of the prince is bad. Meng Wei was helpless, so he could only lower his voice and whisper.
But before these words fell, the snow-white long knife was placed on Meng Yi's neck. The chill hit, making Meng Rank another agitator.
"Commander Meng can't understand human words?"
"I'll let you go, and you'll let it go. If you don't let go, with the Long Xiang Order in hand, I will immediately kill you, and your master will not be able to find fault with me!"
As soon as these words fell, Ling Yan's murderous intent suddenly wrapped Meng Rank, and Meng Rank was shocked, but he didn't dare to doubt Wei Lai's determination to do so.
His head was lowered, his brow furrowed, not knowing what he was thinking.
......
In the restaurant not far away, the eyes of the man who was already in high spirits lit up again, and he stared at the young man, to be precise, at the token he was holding in his hand, with a slight brow.
Unexpectedly, he was able to persuade Yuan Zhichun to join forces with him. The man muttered to himself.
Ji Huanxi on the side was also a little surprised, and when he heard the man's words, he came back to his senses - before he came, the dark disk they had placed in Ningzhou had already passed on to them all the things that had happened in Ningxiao City in the past few months. They naturally knew that almost all of Yuan Sleevechun's plans in Ningxiao City were more or less aborted because of Wei Lai, so they never imagined that Wei Lai would appear here today with Yuan Sleevechun's Dragon Order.
"Looks like we're all underestimating this lion cub. The man said again, then turned around and walked forward, looking at the posture to get out of the restaurant.
"Where is this going, General?" Ji Huanxi was stunned when he saw this, and couldn't help asking.
The man replied without looking back: "Find someone and let Meng Wei release those guys, they are all guys who can't make big waves, and it is also useful to be able to see the skills of this young man." ”
"As for other things, the girl should not be mixed up anymore, and this son cannot be kept. ”
Ji Huanxi frowned when she heard this, although the man's tone was calm, but judging from her understanding of him, she knew that he really had murderous intentions towards Wei Lai at this moment.
......
After settling the Bai family and other seven clansmen, Wei Lai and Sun Daren came to the outside of the prince's palace together.
After knocking on the door of the mansion, the chamberlain went to pass the word, and Wei Lai and Sun Daren stood at the door of the mansion and waited.
Sun Daren wanted to speak several times and stopped, and Wei came to see that he was not a guy who could hold back his words in his heart, so he simply said: "Just say what you want." ”
Sun Daren was agreed, but he was not ambiguous, and immediately said: "Ah Lai, why do you say that we have fallen to the point of begging this guy?"
"It's not a matter of asking, if the Jin family really takes Ningzhou, we will naturally not have a good time, but Yuan Zhichun, the prince, may not be able to sit firmly anymore. He seems to be helping us, but he is actually helping himself. At best, we can only cooperate with him. Wei Lai said softly, his tone calm.
Last night, he received news from the Xiao family, saying that today Meng Wei would take the Bai family and other seven clans to Tailin City for trial, hoping that Wei Lai could find a way to save them. It stands to reason that such a thing should be done by the Xiao family and the state pastor, after all, the Bai family and other seven clans are the few big clans in Ningzhou that are still attached to the state pastor. But the news from the Xiao family didn't say a word about these, Wei Lai secretly thought, I'm afraid the situation of the Xiao family at this moment is not very good, after all, if they are okay, it will not be the turn of Di Xiu's Dark Xiao Army to pass on the news so much.
Wei Lai believed in Xiao Mu's character, so he naturally wouldn't ask more, and as for Zhou Mu's side...... To be honest, even Wei Lai, the grandson, sometimes didn't understand what his old man was thinking. So in the situation that neither could be counted on, Wei came to repair a book, and Todi Xiu faction
The person was sent to Ah Cheng, and this is why he borrowed Long Xiang's order today.
But what Wei Lai didn't expect was that his words seemed to poke Sun Daren's pain, Sun Daren's voice suddenly became a little louder, and his face was a little flushed: "Have you forgotten how my father died? ”
Wei Lai was stunned for a while, and only came back to his senses after a while, but he didn't show too much dissatisfaction, and just asked in a low voice, "Da Ren, do you think they should be saved?"
Sun Daren blinked, and seemed to realize his gaffe, and his voice was much quieter: "Those people in the Bai family should naturally be saved, I know what you mean, and I understand your hardships, I just ...... I'm just worried that Yuan Zhichun will ......"
This time, Wei Lai didn't let Sun Daren finish his words, so he interrupted them: "My father once said that as long as we know that what we are doing is the right thing, it doesn't matter how we do it or who we do it with. As long as we can keep our hearts, we are not afraid of anything. ”
"But Yuan Zhichun has given us benefits, don't we owe him favors?" Sun Daren was still a little relieved, and asked again.
Wei Lai smiled: "We want to stop the Jin family, it is the greatest favor for him, and it is too late for him to be happy." ”
Sun Daren still felt that it was inappropriate, but at this time, the door of the mansion was suddenly opened, and a waiter walked out and said to Wei Lai: "Master Wei, Your Highness is invited." ”
......
"After going around and around for so many days, Wei Gongzi and Zai Xia have joined forces. On the main hall of the Prince's Palace, Yuan Sleevechun, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, held the bronze wine bottle in his hand high and looked at Wei Lai with a smile. He sat on the first seat, and Ah Cheng and Han Mi were separated from each other.
Ah Cheng's eyes behind him were shining, and there was a rare smile on his face.
When this series of things happens, Ah Cheng is the person who is most happy to see it happen. The last thing she wants to see is that Yuan Zhichun and Wei Lai are enemies, and at this moment, because of the arrival of the Jin family, the two sides have joined forces, in her opinion, this is a good opportunity. She thought that after this matter, as long as she mediated it, the two sides would definitely be able to settle their old suspicions and get back together.
There is a way to stretch out his hand and not hit the smiling person, Wei Lai naturally has to respond to Yuan Sleevechun's kindness, he also raised the cup in front of him, saluted Yuan Sleevechun, and said: "Thank you Your Highness this time, this dragon order will be returned." ”
After drinking the wine in the cup in one gulp, Wei Lai walked in front of Yuan Sleeve Chun, and handed over the golden token with respectful hands.
But he didn't want Yuan Zhichun to stretch out his hand and smile and push the token back, he said: "Jin Buyun is not dead, I am afraid that I will embarrass the prince and everyone in Ning Xiao City in the future, this token prince will take it for the time being, and it will be convenient to act in the future." ”
Wei Lai was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Yuan Zhichun, but saw that he had a smile on his eyebrows, and the expression on his face was like a spring breeze, soft as jade.
Wei Lai was stunned, but Ah Cheng behind Yuan Sleeve Chun was secretly a little nervous, her hand squeezed the corner of her clothes, and looked at Wei Lai, for fear that Wei Lai would still have the same temperament as before, and rejected Yuan Sleevechun's good intentions, so that the relationship between the two could be eased and stiffen again.
The prince was so gracious, Wei Lai made another excuse, and he looked coy. In this way, then I will thank Your Highness. And just when Ah Cheng's heart was in his throat, Wei Lai also suddenly smiled, he took a deep look at the smiling His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of him, said this in his mouth, got up and took the dragon order back into his arms.
Ah Cheng let out a long sigh of relief when he saw this, and Yuan Chongchun smiled, stood up and took Wei Lai's hand and said, "Brother Wei, come! You and I will drink two more cups!"
......
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and when the feast ended, the time was approaching.
Ah Cheng intended to send Wei Lai, and Sun Daren also had a lot of eyesight, so he left alone after finding a reason, leaving Ah Cheng and Wei Lai alone.
The two walked side by side on the streets of Ning Xiao City, and they could see that Ah Cheng was in a good mood.
In fact, they only returned from the mountains and rivers together yesterday, and they have only been able to live for a day since they were separated. But maybe it's because he's used to getting along with Wei Lai, or maybe it's because Ah Cheng doesn't realize it himself, when he walks with Wei Lai again, Ah Cheng has a feeling that he hasn't seen him for a long time, and even faintly can't really look forward to it.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank Miss Ah Cheng, if it weren't for the girl's mediation, I really wouldn't have been able to borrow this dragon order from His Royal Highness, the Bai family master and the others were already on the way to Tailin City at this moment. The two walked together for a while, and Wei Laihu said.
Ah Cheng responded: "His Royal Highness is kind-hearted, and he knows that the head of the Bai family and others have suffered an unjustified disaster, so I just mentioned this matter yesterday, and he agreed without thinking about it." Ah Cheng didn't have much strength during the whole process, and the son should go to His Royal Highness if he wants to thank him. ”
Wei Lai's footsteps suddenly stopped
Come, he looked at Ah Cheng sideways, and asked with a strange expression: "Miss Ah Cheng and His Royal Highness really trust each other, which is really envied by Your Highness." ”
Ah Cheng didn't know if Wei Lai had something to say, but when she heard Wei Lai's words, her heart was inexplicably panicked, and she responded in a rare panic: "The prince's biological mother, Ling Zhao Niangniang, has a life-saving grace for Ah Cheng, if it weren't for the blessing of the mother back then, I'm afraid that today's Ah Cheng doesn't know where to be a slave." But ......"
Speaking of this, Ah Cheng paused for a few breaths, but still said: "But the prince and I are just brother and sister, the friendship of master and servant, don't misunderstand the prince......"
Wei Lai was stunned for a moment, he looked at Ah Cheng who lowered his head with these words in front of him, his face was slightly red, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little strange. Ah Cheng is of course an excellent woman, both in terms of conduct and appearance, and her cultivation talent is rare in the world. If Wei Lai was not moved, it was naturally a lie to himself, but when Wei Lai's heart was strange, an indescribable sense of discomfort also followed.
It felt like I had betrayed someone......
But who the hell was that, Wei Lai couldn't remember.
He didn't like this feeling of being unable to grasp it, so he simply suppressed the various emotions that were surging in his heart at that moment, and asked, "Does Miss Ah Cheng think that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has turned back and changed his ways?"
Ah Cheng saw that Wei Lai didn't respond to everything she said, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost in her heart, and Wei Lai's words made her frown slightly: "Isn't everything Your Highness did today enough to reassure Gongzi?"
Wei Lai didn't answer her question, but said: "I hope that Your Highness's sincerity that touched the girl can last until twenty days later." ”
"Twenty days?" Ah Cheng looked puzzled, obviously not figuring out where Wei Lai said the number of twenty days was starting from, but such doubts only came to her heart, and she suddenly remembered that when those Tianque Realm disciples left the Mountains and Rivers Map, Ju Ning had said that she would let them devote themselves to the prince's sect, but before that, she would give them about a month to digest the power of those Blood Soul Pills. And these disciples of the Heavenly Que Realm left the Mountains and Rivers Ten days earlier than Wei Lai and the others, and in the twentieth day, wouldn't it be just a month?
Thinking of this, Ah Cheng's face was a little ugly, and she asked, "What does Childe mean ......?"
Click.
Click.
She asked, but no sooner had she said than there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the end of the street not far away.
She looked up, but saw two figures coming from there, one was a man about thirty years old, with an ordinary appearance, but his hands were slender, and the blood vessels on the back of his hands were protruding. The other person was much more weird, his whole body was wrapped in a black robe, so that Ah Cheng couldn't see his face clearly.
The two walked straight towards the place where Wei Lai and Ah Cheng were, Ah Cheng's brows furrowed, and he was about to ask something.
"You're here too. But at this time, Wei Lai, who was beside her, suddenly said to the two people.
Ah Cheng was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wei Lai in surprise, with a puzzled look on his face. At this time, the two also walked in front of Wei Lai, and the man in them arched his hand towards Wei Lai and said, "Wei Gongzi is good, but he won't be seen." ”
Wei Lai turned a blind eye to the other party's overtures, looked at the figure wrapped in a black robe with strange eyes, and then looked at the man and said, "Qiankun Gate is also coming to wade into this troubled water?"
The man smiled bitterly: "With the life of the sect, Xu has no choice." ”
Wei Lai nodded, and said: "It's okay, you Qiankun Sect helped to abuse me, and helped Cang Yuwei owe me hundreds of lives in Wupan City, new accounts and old accounts, and I just happened to settle accounts with you." ”
The man didn't refute, he bowed his head and said: "Each for his own master, one day Xu Xuan falls into the hands of Gongzi, and Gongzi wants to kill Xu Xuan without any complaints." But Childe's grace to save his life in Gutong City that day, Xu Xuan also remembered that if someone Xu was lucky enough to win, he would do everything he could to save Childe's life. ”
The man's words were sincere, but Wei Lai had no intention of responding, he just nodded and turned sideways.
The man recalled, and also nodded towards Wei Lai, so that the guy next to him who was wrapped in black robes walked away together.
At the moment when Wei Lai brushed against the black robe, Wei Lai's face changed, and the Yin Dragon above the second divine gate in his body suddenly rioted, as if he was about to break through the layers of seals and come back to life again.
Just in an instant, there were dense sweat stains on Wei Lai's forehead......
Ah Cheng, who was beside her, caught a glimpse of Wei Lai's strange appearance, and she asked with concern, "Master Wei, what's wrong with you?"
Wei Lai didn't say anything, just looked sideways behind him, but the two people who had just staggered past him had long since disappeared, and there was only an empty and dark street, which infected Wei Lai's eyes......
