Chapter 1244: What are you doing?
After a tired day, Lin Wan didn't want to say anything more, followed the female shopkeeper into his room, and then instructed the guy to bring hot water, and Qingtong briefly freshened up, and went to bed.
Lin Wan and Qingtong slept in the same room, Ah Fu and Ah Li's room was on their left, and Wei Yinshuang and Bing'er's room was on their right. On the opposite side is Zhou Chengkuan's room, on the left is the room of the dark and the little white tiger, and on the right is the room of the gale and the hidden soul.
There was also a row of smaller rooms on each side, which were used by the servants and guards. After arranging for the night to be on duty, the guards also went back to their rooms to rest.
In the entire backyard, there were only Lin Wan and the others, the courtyard door had been closed, and several secret guards were guarding all corners of the courtyard, bright or dark.
Lin Wan fell asleep when she got into bed, Qingtong slept next to her, and it seemed that she had closed her eyes and fallen asleep, but she was very vigilant in her heart.
When it was about the fifth watch, Qingtong suddenly sat up from the bed, glanced back at Lin Wan, who was asleep, and quietly walked to the door, looking out through the thin crack in the door.
I saw more than a dozen black-clothed people standing in the courtyard outside, surrounded by twenty dark guards, Zhou Chengkuan, Dark, Gale, Hidden Soul, and Little White Tiger also came out of the room, standing opposite those black-clothed people.
Zhou Chengkuan stared at a black-scarfed masked man led by the other party, and asked coldly: "Your Excellency has come here late at night with so many people, I don't know what you are doing?"
The masked man in the black scarf squinted at Zhou Chengkuan, as if judging his identity, and after a long time, he asked without answering: "Are you distinguished guests from the Great Seal Kingdom?"
Zhou Chengkuan chuckled lightly and said lightly: "We are indeed from the Great Feudal Kingdom, but whether we are your honored guests or not depends on the purpose of Your Excellency's visit." ”
The black-scarfed masked man frowned slightly, glanced at Zhou Chengkuan again, nodded, seemed to have determined Zhou Chengkuan's identity, saluted Zhou Chengkuan, and asked, "Is it His Royal Highness King Ping of the Great Feudal Kingdom?"
Zhou Chengkuan's face sank, and he asked unhappily, "Who are you?"
The masked man in the black scarf smiled slightly, took off his face scarf, revealing a young and handsome face, his attitude was still arrogant, and he said lightly: "General Ximen Yumin, this southwest area is under the control of this general, this general is here to greet His Royal Highness King Ping and His Royal Highness Princess Wan on the order of the emperor, please let the two of you go with General Ben immediately." Living in this small inn is really losing the identity of the two highnesses, and it also seems that my Xiling Kingdom has neglected the distinguished guests.
Zhou Chengkuan hooked his lips and smiled, and arched his hand: "It turned out to be General Yumin, I have admired it for a long time! General Lao came to pick it up in person, and this king is really flattered." However, since we have already stayed here tonight, let's stay for one night, and it will not be too late to change places after dawn tomorrow. What's more, the royal sister is already asleep, and it is inconvenient to wake her up immediately at this moment. ”
Ximen Yumin frowned, and said unhappily: "General Ben has already come, do you want General Ben to wait here for Her Royal Highness Princess Wan to wake up before leaving?"
Seeing that the other party was so tough and rude, Zhou Chengkuan also smiled, and replied coldly: "Is this the hospitality of your country?"
Ximen Yumin was stunned, thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay, General Ben is waiting outside, and he will set off immediately after dawn." General Ben was ordered to return to the palace with two distinguished guests within three days, but he could not delay any longer. ”
Zhou Chengkuan was noncommittal, and looked coldly at Ximen Yumin with those black-clothed people, opened the courtyard door, and walked out with a swagger.
The secret guard closed the courtyard door, walked in front of Zhou Chengkuan, and lowered his body to report: "Your Highness, we have been surrounded, and there are at least three thousand soldiers of the Xiling Kingdom outside. ”
Zhou Chengkuan nodded slightly and said, "I know, keep it well, and wait until dawn." After speaking, he walked to the door of Lin Wan's room and asked in a low voice, "Qingtong, is Wan'er awake?"
Qingtong gently opened the door, shook his head, and replied in a low voice: "If His Royal Highness King Huiping said, Her Royal Highness the princess has not woken up. His Royal Highness King Ping, do you need me to wake up the princess?"
Zhou Chengkuan shook his head and said, "No, when she wakes up, you tell her everything that happened just now, and see what she thinks." ”
"Yes, Your Highness, Qingtong understands. Qingtong bowed down to receive the order, then gently closed the door, walked to the bed, and confirmed that Lin Wan was still asleep, so he lay down beside her lightly, closing his eyes and resting.
The next day, Lin Wan woke up early in the morning, and after freshening up, while eating breakfast, she listened to Qingtong report to her what happened last night.
After eating, Lin Wan walked out of the room with Qingtong, everyone had already packed up, and they all gathered in the courtyard.
Zhou Chengkuan sat under the big tree in the courtyard and drank tea gracefully, and didn't seem to pay attention to Ximen Yumin and the three thousand soldiers outside.
Lin Wan smiled faintly, walked to sit down opposite Zhou Chengkuan, and asked with a natural expression, "Brother Huang, did you sleep well last night?"
Zhou Chengkuan saw that Lin Wan was refreshed, and couldn't help but smile and nodded, and said, "With General Yumin of Xiling Kingdom coming to us with three thousand soldiers as escorts, of course my brother sleeps very peacefully." ”
Lin Wan smiled happily and said, "Great, I really didn't expect that the emperor of Xiling Kingdom attached so much importance to the friendship and neighborly relationship with our Great Feudal Kingdom, and actually sent General Yumin to pick us up in person, which is really worth hapting." We don't have to worry about safety anymore, where to eat or where to stay. ”
Zhou Chengkuan looked at Lin Wan funny, nodded, and said, "What the imperial sister and I think really coincide." In that case, let's go. ”
Lin Wan shook his head, pouted, and said, "Brother Huang, Wan'er was so tired yesterday, I don't want to set off so soon." Anyway, we have already arrived in Xiling Kingdom, and there is General Yumin to protect our safety, so it is better for us to rest in this Ping County for a day before leaving. ”
Before Zhou Chengkuan could answer, he heard the sound of the courtyard door being vigorously pushed open, and then, from outside the door, Ximen Yumin's cold voice came: "Her Royal Highness Princess Wan, this general has official business, and he can't delay it, he must leave immediately." General Ben has prepared a very comfortable carriage for His Royal Highness King Ping and His Royal Highness Princess Wan, and the two of them will rest in the carriage. ”
Lin Wan turned his head to look and saw a tall young general walking in from outside, and his cold gaze was also looking at Lin Wan.
When he saw Lin Wan's beautiful little face and clear eyes, he couldn't help but light up, and the gloomy aura on his face before suddenly disappeared. After being stunned for a moment, he smiled at Lin Wan and said politely: "In Ximen Yumin, I have long admired the name of Her Royal Highness Princess Wan, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation." ”
