42. Chapter 42
Regardless of the mood of the listener, Lei was still speechless in the wind, An Le firmly believed that he was a kind and good person, adhered to his principles, repaid grievances with virtue, persuaded people with reason, and was a peace ambassador who spread love and respect in the transition era from a slave society to a feudal society.
It's such a happy decision!
A gratifying consensus on the issue of good people (?) was another thing.
"The fourth prince Lian Bailong applied to stay in the alliance to study and exchange, and I approved it. β
As soon as this sentence came out, Lian Hongba really exploded.
"That guy himself told you that he wanted to stay in the alliance?" Lian Hongba couldn't believe it, and his voice couldn't help but rise, "You still allowed it!"
Lian Hongyan and Lian Hongming exchanged a look with each other, not at all surprised.
"I guess he should almost take it anymore, miss this opportunity, and don't know if he will find a chance to get out of the surveillance in the future. Lian Hongyan's tone was calm, completely expected, "As the heir of the previous emperor, His Majesty has always been deliberately spying on him, so much so that he has to pretend that he is only interested in the study of swordsmanship for so long under our noses. The gap before the resignation is the only chance left, if I keep silent until I leave the alliance, and obediently follow us back to Luochang, I will be disappointed, the surviving prince is just this kind of goods. β
"Oh...... So, you have always known it? What a bad heart, knowing that the little white dragon was resentful, but he was silent and watched coldly. He has a lot of resentment against you, and he has always admonished that he can't be trusted, and in order to stop the expansion of the Huang Empire, even a little bit, he risked his life to admonish. An Le raised his eyebrows, his eyes wandered between Lian Hongyan and Lian Hongming, feeling that the attitude of the two of them towards Lian Bailong was very subtle. Generally speaking, isn't it all about cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, knowing what kind of malice and resentment the other party has, pretending that he doesn't know, how bad it is, or how much he looks down on him.
His eyes inadvertently fell on Lian Hongba, and he was shocked by his expression, what should I say, as if accusation and condemnation were mixed with grievances, An Le couldn't help but self-examine, and found that he didn't seem to say anything to offend him, and the young man's heart was also a needle under the sea.
"Little Anle never called me by name. Lian Hongba said quietly, "But he affectionately called him Little White Dragon, obviously we met first." β
An Le recalled it carefully, and found that it seemed like it might be possible...... I really didn't call him by name, he was just calling him a little happily.
"Don't care about this kind of detail, it's called Little White Dragon because it's smooth. β
Because of the white dragon horse.
Lian Hongba's expression became even more unhappy, "My name doesn't sound good?"
"That's enough, Redlord. Lian Hongyan said something to stop him, and let him entangle and didn't know how long it would take.
Lian Hongba seemed to wilt like a frosted eggplant, and walked to Lian Hongming dejectedly and stood beside him, looking at An Le with a faint gaze. Lian Hongming helplessly raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, signaling that he would be willful after a while, now was the time to talk about business.
"I know all his resentment, but what can a weak prince do, the result can only be resentment, trembling under our noses. Lian Hongyan's face was expressionless, and there was no superfluous affection when it came to Lian Bailong, "Resentment against my mother, resentment of the organization, resentment of us, resentment day after day, knowing that pretending to be nothing happened, lowering His Majesty's vigilance, and doing it is okay, in fact, neither I nor the queen put him in the bottom of our eyes." β
"Xiao Transparent also has Xiao Transparent's self-esteem, are you sure it's not your attitude that pulls his hatred?" For example, the emperor practices red virtue and consciously makes a little transparent, which can be regarded as a wise move to protect himself, the queen is awesome, his son is awesome, but he is an ordinary person, and he tries to control the queen and his son with his identity, and it is normal to be killed by fire.
"Heh......" Lian Hongyan's lips hooked up the arc of mockery, the bottom of his eyes was obscure, it seemed that there was only simple mockery and contempt, and it seemed to be mixed with other expressions of unknown meaning, hating iron and not steel, "If he wants to attack the labyrinth, I don't mind helping, but unfortunately he has always refused, I would rather always be a weak prince than be contaminated with half a point, trying to draw a clear line to maintain his bottom line, and this is the only way to endure humiliation." The resentment was too strong, filling his heart, and even confusing the severity, forgetting what was more important than resentment, which was the innate responsibility and obligation of being a prince. β
In order to achieve his goal, he did not hesitate to bow his head even to those who hated and resented him, and he lacked this awareness. Rigid is easy to break, does not know how to bend down and be flexible, just blindly sticks to the useless bottom line, so far nothing has been done, no matter how resentful, it is just the sorrow of the weak. β
"If you want me to look down on him, at least I have to come up with something that people can look down on. β
"What is the plan of the alliance leader to agree to the request of the White Dragon?" Lian Hongming asked in a deep voice, "No matter what, he is the prince of the Huang Empire, and we can't just throw him away in the Northern Alliance." I guess I thought it was after a lot of thought before I agreed. β
Eat a trench and grow wise, anyway, they don't believe that Anle will do things without a purpose, if they don't answer, they may not want to say, and if they answer, they may hide other purposes.
An Le smiled and was confident, "Because I'm a good person!"
What responded to her was three pairs of eyes of complete disbelief, and Lian Hongyan, Lian Hongming, and Lian Hongba expressed strong suspicions.
Seeing such a bitter and vengeful beautiful young man resolutely kneeling in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little pity, and then agreed. An Le's tone was very sincere, just like when she preached the party's ideas to Lian Hongyan before, it was absolutely true.
Lian Hongyan was dumbfounded, it was better to believe that she planned to cultivate a chess piece close to the Northern Alliance, if Bai Long was reborn because of the relationship between the alliance leaders, he would definitely get close to the Northern Alliance in the future, return to the Huang Empire to ascend to the court, and enter the circle of political power, which would be a natural supporter of the Northern Alliance.
ββ¦β¦ Please don't make such jokes. Lian Hongming looked helpless, he didn't believe a word of this, "Although he is not close, Bailong is also our nominal brother, if there is no convincing reason, he really can't leave him alone in the Northern Alliance." β
"If you have to have another reason, just make up a thousand words in your head. An Le spread his hands and condemned this attitude of distrust, "When have I ever made a joke and lied to you? There must be the most basic trust between people, we have signed an agreement on peaceful coexistence, don't doubt it!"
As soon as he said this, Lian Hongba immediately became energetic, and cast a look of condemnation and accusation, "You said that you are the city lord!"
"I'm not wrong," An Le was puzzled, "There is only one city lord in the alliance, and I am the lord of all cities. β
"You didn't explain this kind of thing at all, I thought we were forced to surrender by the city lord of a city in the Northern Alliance!"
That's right, they had always thought that An Le was the lord of a city, given the power to represent the Northern Alliance, forcing the Huang Empire to surrender, and the so-called peace talks were just a fig leaf, and they were sorry for the humiliation they suffered if they didn't come back.
Unexpectedly, An Le was the leader of the Northern Alliance.
Unexpectedly, the peace talks really became peace talks in the end.
"Then I'm in a much better mood now, I'm not only the leader of the alliance, the same level as your emperor, but also a kind and generous, thoughtful, realm and principled person, I didn't take the opportunity to put forward unkind conditions to coerce and oppress you, but also diligently helped the Huang Empire improve productivity, hoping to eliminate slavery as soon as possible. An Le grinned, and the eight big white teeth were shining.
ββ¦β¦ββ_β
ββ¦β¦ββ_β
ββ¦β¦β=_=|||
Unable to look directly.
Lian Hongming struggled, trying to get the atmosphere back on track.
"If you plan to marry the Huang Empire to strengthen the relationship between the two sides, the White Dragon is not a good choice......
"I'm not interested in children, I'm still a bitter child. An Le categorically refused.
Lian Hongming was finally dumbfounded, what kind of mentality and self-confidence can he say that others are children with such a young look!
Only Lian Hongba is still fighting on the front line.
"Have you ever looked in the mirror when you said this!" Lian Hongba sneered, the young man's self-esteem was angry with the "little friend", and he pointed out the strongest evidence, "You are shorter than me!"
Sure enough, it was iron-clad evidence.
"Don't care about this kind of detail, everyone has a little boy or a little girl living in their hearts, and the psychological age of girls is usually two years older than boys of the same age." β
Listen to your!
Lian Hongba said that he didn't believe it for 10,000, and it was obviously a fool's errand.
"I don't agree with Bailong staying!" Lian Hongba categorically refused.
An Le looked at him strangely and frowned, "Is it my delusion, you seem to have a very big opinion of Xiao Bailong? β
"It's too strange to think about it, that guy ......" Lian Hongba's face was not good-looking, and his brows were tightly locked, "Pretending to be very honest, in fact, I don't know what I am thinking, and I even forget about my responsibilities and obligations as a prince, who knows what he will do." In short, I don't agree with letting the White Dragon stay in the Alliance!"
"I agree. Unexpectedly, Lian Hongyan suddenly came up with such a sentence, which caused Lian Hongba to be very dissatisfied.
"Brother Yan!" Lian Hongba protested, and the words came to his mouth and he swallowed again. For the development and stability of the Huang Empire, the next step must be to find a way to do it to El Same, that organization is too mysterious, the power is unfathomable, if you want to eradicate them, you must think long-term, step by step, let a person full of hatred and just want to take revenge but the consciousness is not enough to practice Bailong to act indiscriminately outside, he is also a prince, if he is used by someone with a heart to cause chaos in the Huang Empire, he can't care about it at all. "I know your concerns. Lian Hongyan said lightly, his eyes signaled Lian Hongba to calm down, and shifted his gaze to An Le, "Since the alliance leader has agreed, then my unsuccessful younger brother will be handed over to the alliance to discipline for a period of time." β
"I thought you were going to be very opposed. An Le was surprised, after all, what he said just now seemed to be full of disapproval.
"If I don't agree, I won't always expect Bailong to take action before leaving, and finally live up to expectations, although he is not aware enough, he still has some action. Lian Hongyan's eyes were bloodshot, and he didn't seem to be weak at all, as if he had recovered from the blow, and he was the high-spirited Yan Emperor again. There was a slight hint of relief between his words, this requirement is really low enough, it must be that Lian Bailong has pretended to be honest and unwilling to adapt for the sake of strength over the years, and his expectations have been worn out like this. "It's just that if you want to hear what the alliance leader means, it won't be that you agree to come down for no reason, if there is a need for the Huang Empire, please explain. β
"No, the main thing is that he touched me. An Le waved his hand, "Although listening to your tone, I look down on him for not doing anything because he is full of hatred in his heart, thinking that the principles he adheres to are meaningless, it is better to do something of practical significance and take the initiative to control his destiny, but I think he just has a spiritual cleanliness habit, a common phenomenon at this age, and he is unwilling to go along with the guy who hates and looks down on him, draw a clear line, and is even more unwilling to bend his waist for five buckets of rice." β
"Resolutely deciding to stay in the alliance just to get free from surveillance when you think you will not abide by the agreement, does not guarantee that you will be safe if you stay here, and it is a very risky thing to gain the power to change your destiny by staying here, and it takes a lot of courage. He almost took himself as a hostage to the Northern Alliance, just to create a chance. β
"It's not inaction, it's that he thinks the opportunity hasn't come. β
Lian Hongyan was noncommittal, "Just take it as such, there is not much difference between inaction and inaction." β
"How does Xiao Anle plan to arrange the white dragon?" asked Lian Hongba.
"I still have to think about this, don't worry. An Le waved his hand and looked at Lian Hongyan's bloodshot eyes, "Since we have reached a consensus, I will go first, you can rest well, staying up all night is not good for your health, and you should pay more attention when you are young." β
What should be said has been said, and the rest of the trade cooperation matters are handed over to the professional responsible for negotiation, and An Le thinks that there is nothing to do, and walks happily and goes shopping.
Seeing that An Le didn't go back, Lian Hongba pursed his lips, and couldn't tell why he was depressed, in short, his feelings were all down.
"Xiao Anle will not be unexpected, what does the white dragon really want to do, he must get the power, Jodhar said that there are no metal users found in the Northern Alliance, no one has raided the labyrinth, except for the Labyrinth Demon God, what else can get strong power in a short period of time, the white dragon does not want to continue to stumble, he must find a way to leave the alliance, and when the time comes...... The alliance became his springboard. Lian Hongba was sullen, and couldn't figure out why he looked at Lian Bailong so differently.
"For the Huang Empire, it is not without benefit. Lian Hongyan said unhurriedly.
"Brother Yan......" Lian Hongba was depressed.
"There are no metal users, and there is no magic, but with such a powerful power, if you really want to cultivate the white dragon into a pawn that is enough to bring benefits to the alliance, what must you have to pay, maybe you can get a glimpse of the secret of the alliance's power through guΓ². Lian Hongming said slowly, the reason why he agreed to Lian Bailong to stay in the alliance was not for no reason.
"However, it could also be to help with the maze. Lian Hongba pointed out a possibility.
"I don't rule it out, so it's just a gamble. Lian Hongming nodded, his expression solemn, "If it succeeds, it may become an important help for us to bring down the organization." β
"The organization seems to be quite afraid of the power of the alliance, and we have also seen the power, El Same was almost wiped out, if it wasn't for the woman of the alliance who broke out at the end and indirectly eliminated the attack of the heavenly thunder on El Samey, maybe the organization no longer exists now. β
"I don't know the alliance leader's plan for the time being, at present, she will not let the alliance suffer, and the concept can be called mild, in contrast, the alliance leader's subordinates are dangerous elements, only the alliance leader suppresses it, if it weren't for the final alliance leader suddenly sent a message asking for capture, I don't know what it will develop into in the end, that woman is like crazy. β
"The leader of the alliance is the lock. β
Thinking of the battle of Luochang, Lian Hongming's brows were furrowed very tightly, after which El Samey was hit hard, it was a good time to eradicate it, but for the expansion of the Huang Empire and the unification of the world, the power of the organization was indispensable, and it was not yet time to give up, but now it was the best opportunity to be missed.
"No matter what Bai Long thinks in his heart, as long as he remembers that he is the prince of the Huang Empire, he will eventually learn how to be responsible. Lian Hongyan said, looking ahead, as if he had penetrated the void and landed somewhere.
Then, it slowly fell on Lian Hongba, seeing his sullen appearance, he stood up, walked in front of him, raised his hand and gently patted him on the shoulder, "Do what you want." β
Lian Hongba looked up in surprise, "Brother Yan?"
"You are my brother, I believe in you. Lian Hongyan said lightly, "The Northern Alliance and the Huang Empire have signed an agreement on peaceful coexistence, so let's go like this." I also want to see what kind of course the leader of the alliance who takes his ideals for granted will eventually achieve, and what kind of changes will be brought to the world. β
"The hostile position between the Huang Empire and the Northern Alliance is completely over. β
The last sentence officially announced Lian Hongyan's decision.
With the permission and encouragement of his eldest brother, Lian Hongba hesitated, and finally raised his feet and went out.
Watching Lian Hongba's figure disappear from his field of vision, Lian Hongming slowly retracted his gaze and turned his head, "Brother Huang, if the inexplicable power in Hongba's body is the power used by the alliance, the possibility of Bailong staying in the alliance to get the same power is higher than the possibility of getting the power of the demon god in the labyrinth." β
"Hongba was targeted by the organization, I'm afraid it was because of that power, although I don't know how they found out so quickly, but it also revealed their fear, which also shows that the alliance leader doesn't mind people outside the alliance getting this power, even if it was the Huang Empire, which had completely opposite positions at the time. Isn't this attitude familiar? Lian Hongyan returned to the position in front of the desk, and casually took down a book from the bookshelf next to him, it was not a reading material of the Huang Empire, looking at the name, it was the Confucian "Book of Changes", and the books placed in Lian Hongyan's room were deliberately put in after selection.
"Ah, that attitude is very similar to that of an organization. Allowing us to attack the labyrinth and master the power of the demon god, and not mind that we become stronger little by little, shows that the organization has extraordinary power and does not take the demon god seriously. Does the alliance leader also think so? Although that kind of power is difficult to master, and it is not a climate at all to know half-understanding, but if you can get it, it should be that the red tyrant is not the same in the eyes of the alliance leader. Lian Hongming nodded.
"But the alliance leader's thinking and organization are completely different from Yuyan. Lian Hongyan finally came to a conclusion.
"Can you think that you are a good person so firmly......" Lian Hongming sighed, and the good person spit out of her mouth as a banner to flaunt herself, and she felt that she would not be able to look directly at the good person in the future.
It is said that good people do not live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years, and good people like the alliance leader can definitely live a long life and harm for a thousand years.
When Lian Hongba found An Le, she was squatting on the ground teasing the wild cat, holding a small dried fish in her hand, and smiling to attract the cat to come over.
"Dirty feral cats. He stood next to him and immediately scared away the wild cats that had approached him.
An Le looked up and found that he was also squatting down, but he didn't walk away in a disgusted tone, so he casually handed him a small dried fish.
Wild cats are wary of humans, and are reluctant to approach the two-legged beast lightly, although the small dried fish is very delicious, they have not leaned over for a long time, staring at the small dried fish with big eyes, and their heads are dangling with the fiddling movements, and their eyes are moving around, refusing to leave.
An Le is full of interest, and he is happy to practice red tyrants.
"Feeling bad?" An Le looked at him strangely, why did he squat down when he wasn't interested in teasing the cat.
"Xiao Anle hasn't even called my name......" Lian Hongba said faintly, looking very resentful in his sullen appearance.
Is such a small thing as "uh......" worth dwelling on?
"Xiao Anle has called Xiao Hongyu's name, and he has also called Bailong's name," Lian Hongba looked at her faintly, as if to accuse her of discriminatory treatment, and she was aggrieved and depressed, "It's just that she has never called my name." I've been working hard, why does Xiao Anle always seem to be cold?"
"It's not...... right" An Le said dryly, mainly because he didn't know how to deal with the self-cooked type, and he looked smiling, sunny and optimistic, and the guy turned out to be so sensitive to other people's attitudes?
"Absolutely!" Lian Hongba said very firmly, and then became even more complaining, crying, "Even Brother Yan's name Xiao Anle has been called!"
"Oh well. "An Le is helpless, the one who has known the Lian family for the longest time, and he has never called his name, it seems really unusual, it is definitely because he is too familiar with the relationship that makes her feel awkward!
Pulling the corners of his mouth, under his expectant gaze, I don't know how there is a faint sense of shyness, I can't open my mouth for a while, my eyes are too hot, hey!
"Xiao Anle~~" Lian Hongba's eyes lit up, and his whole face looked extraordinarily bright.
ββ¦β¦ Red...... Ba ...... "as thin as a mosquito."
An Le burst into tears and found that Hongba was probably the first boy's name she called, and those male classmates in the same class used to be called by their names and surnames, Xiao Bailong and His Royal Highness Hongyan were called as nicknames, without any pressure, and it was a mess to call the name of the opposite sex in front of the person alone, and it felt very affectionate, no wonder I felt so embarrassed, the other party's eyes were still so hot, and the embarrassment index skyrocketed.
"I can't hear clearly, Xiao Anle's voice is so small. "Lian Hongba complained.
ββ¦β¦ The corners of Hongba's ...... mouth twitched, and he screamed again.
"Call it again, Xiao Anle~~"
"Red Tyrant....... β
"Call again~~"
An Le casually threw away the dried fish, pinched the flesh on both cheeks of Lian Hongba and pulled it out, grinding his teeth, "You are enough, what are you doing again and again, stupid!"
"Woo woo woo woo ......" made a vague sound, Lian Hongba pressed An Le's hand, grabbed it, and said reluctantly: "Because Xiao Anle seems to be blushing, I saw Xiao Anle blushing for the first time, and I couldn't help but look at it for a while." β
"Shut up, it's the sun!" An Le definitely didn't admit that he was embarrassed to call the other party's name in person.
Looking at her fierce eyes, Lian Hongba thought thoughtfully, "Could it be that Xiao Anle is the first time to call a man's name like this, so he is shy?"
Wouldn't it be very cowardly to be shy because of this kind of thing? An Le said that he absolutely can't admit it!
"Hmph, how is that possible!"
"I'm so happy!" Lian Hongba smiled, his expression was very happy.
ββ¦β¦ Hmph!" An Le turned away from him.
