Chapter 223: Heroes Save Beauty

It's a nice thing to say, but it's obviously aimed at Lin Jue.

But this is someone else's territory, and it is impossible for a person who can be a festival envoy to deal with the local martial arts soldiers without dealing with them, so even Ling Mo doesn't dare to talk too much.

After those martial artists shouted their throats and coaxed for a while, they stopped, and everyone's eyes fell on Lin Jue, all of them watched her drink the glass of wine in front of her.

There was silence all around.

Lin Jue stood in the middle of the crowd, feeling the gaze from all directions.

She has to drink this glass of wine no matter what, otherwise she will look down on tens of thousands of soldiers on the border, and she will not take everyone's hard work in her eyes.

But after drinking such a big glass of wine, she will definitely not be able to get out of here.

Thinking of this, Lin Jue glanced up at Liu Man, so far, she could only drink it hard, and after drinking it, she could only pray that Liu Man could help her for Nangong Yi's sake, at least take her out of here safely.

"Waitβ€”"

At this moment, Liu Man couldn't help but stand up.

Ji Li has never been a good person, who knows if there is anything strange mixed in the wine, he can't let Lin Jue drink this glass of wine no matter what.

"Liu Jingluo, are you very active today?"

Ji Li looked at Liu Man, and his tone was meaningful.

"Master Ji, our men in the northwest are all real men, a large group of men, drinking with a girl who is powerless, this seems to be ...... It's a little girly......"

Liu Man said in a joking tone.

This time. It can be regarded as completely offending this fox, but who let the other party be Lin Jue? For the sake of Nangong Yi, he even risked his life. You have to protect her, don't you?

"Oh? Then Liu Jingluo will tell you about it, how can it be considered not feminine? Ji Li smiled exaggeratedly, "Is it possible to take a big bowl to the county lord and let her drink in a big bowl?" ”

As the words fell, laughter erupted in the surrounding area.

In fact, there is a reason why the situation has become one-sided.

Although on the surface, the Jiedu envoy was also selected by the emperor from among the Beijing officials. They were sent to the frontier to manage the prefectures and counties, but because these people often stayed for a decade or two as soon as they arrived in the frontier. Even longer, in the process, as long as they are not stupid, they have almost developed their own power. Ally yourself with those local warriors. Become a real ruler, similar to the vassal kings of the previous dynasty, commonly known as the "Earth Emperor".

And Liu Man, including Nangong Yi, is just a soldier temporarily sent by the emperor to the northwest to lead the troops, and the power is there, but it is limited to those soldiers under his own jurisdiction, and he wants to give orders to the local soldiers. It's absolutely impossible.

However, because Nangong Yi was there before, Ji Li was under pressure from him. Even if he had some ideas in his heart, he didn't dare to implement them, but since Nangong Yi disappeared, although Ji Li was no different on his face, he privately sent all the soldiers in the Guanbei camp to the front line and replaced his own native soldiers.

That's why there were so many military attaches in the hall today, but none of them stood up to speak for Liu Man, because these were all Ji Li's people, and the soldiers of the Guanbei Battalion brought by Nangong Yi were either at the lookout or in ambush outside the city, and they were not here at all.

"Since Lord Ji thinks that you must drink alcohol to express my admiration for all the soldiers, such hospitality, even if Yun Shu can't drink, then it can't refute Lord Ji's meaning, right?"

Lin Jue looked at Ji Li and said lightly.

If she doesn't drink this glass of wine, I'm afraid it will be a stalemate.

The bronze quadrangular cup, held in the hand, has a different texture. Lin Jue raised the wine glass to his lips and took a sip lightly, his face was suddenly flushed, and he began to cough violently.

This wine was much stronger than she had imagined.

"County Lord, this is the intention of tens of thousands of brothers in our Great Northwest......"

Seeing this, Ji Li hurriedly added.

After saying that, the eyes around him became expectant again.

Lin Jue didn't bother to pay attention to him, the long pain was better than the short pain, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, he planned to drink the remaining wine in the cup in one gulp, but just as he was about to drink it, the wine glass was snatched away by the hand stretched out from the side.

"This is the best wine, you can't drink, don't spoil it!"

The contract husband's disgusted voice came, and as he spoke, he directly raised the wine glass he snatched from Lin Jue's hand, raised his head and drank it all.

Everyone was stunned, and the martial artists who had planned to coax also widened their eyes.

This, this is completely out of common sense, huh?

Ji Li was also a little surprised, but he quickly returned to normal, looked at the contract man and said with a smile, "It seems that our Yunshu County Lord is really charming enough, not only Liu Jingluo has repeatedly wanted to come to the rescue, but even the third prince of the Rakshasa Kingdom also wants to save the beauty heroly......"

But what he didn't expect was that the contractor seemed to have heard a big joke, with a very disdainful expression on his face, and chuckled, "If you want a hero to save beauty, you have to be beautiful...... But I don't find any beautiful women here......"

As soon as these words came out, even Ji Li was stunned, the dignified county lord was sitting here, but he said such a thing, isn't it obvious that he won't give Lin Jue face.

"The third prince really likes to joke, our Yunshu County Lord-"

Before Ji Li's words were finished, his shoulders were grabbed by the contractor, and then, he leaned closer, and said to Ji Li with a mysterious face, "If Lord Ji is interested in beauties, come to me, I can leave a lot of excellent goods for you...... The national color and fragrance are absolute. ”

The contracted husband's words were drunk, but Ji Li was very sober, and when he heard him say these things in front of Ling Mo, his face turned blue with fright.

He can act unscrupulously under high-sounding excuses, but he can't be caught by others, and talking about Fengyue in front of everyone is obviously extremely inappropriate, and it is easy to be caught.

The most important thing is that the indentured man is a foreign envoy, and no matter how powerful he is, he cannot do anything to an envoy.

So he quickly smiled and explained, "It seems that the third prince's alcohol consumption is not very good, only a few glasses, and he is drunk like this?" ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at several of the maidservants and scolded, "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and help the third prince down to rest!?" ”

Seeing this, the maid was so frightened that she hurriedly stepped forward to help, but was pushed away by the contract husband, "I'm not drunk, you all get out of the way for me!" Speaking of this, his eyes fell on Ji Li's body again, staggered towards him, grabbed him, and said with a teasing smile, "Master Ji, what I said is true, when do you want it, just tell me, it is guaranteed to be the best!" ……”

Ji Li was so entangled by the contract husband, neither advance nor retreat, all his thoughts were on how to get rid of such a dog skin plaster as quickly as possible, where would he still have the leisure to take care of Lin Jue?

The whole hall was dumbfounded, what is this?

The painting style became too fast, and Lin Jue was a little stunned at first, but then reacted. When she reacted, she almost burst out laughing.

Sure enough, to deal with a wicked person like Ji Li, you have to use extraordinary methods. But, is the contractor helping her? Why did he help her?

Here Ji Li was still being pestered by the contractor, but suddenly a guard hurriedly walked in from outside the door, and as soon as Ji Li saw him, he struggled to break free from the contractor's arms.

The guard took two steps forward, leaned into Ji Li's ear, and whispered a few words.

A trace of violence flashed on Ji Li's face, but then he quickly returned to his original appearance, he straightened out the brocade robe that was crumpled by the contractor, blessed Ling Mo, and said, "Your Highness the Sixth is really sorry, there is something urgent in the Xiaguan's family, I have to go back immediately, lose my company first, you all continue first, and the Xiaguan will come back later to apologize." ”

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

The master was gone, and the guests were almost drunk, and the wine was hot, and the contractor made such a fuss, and everyone was much less restrained, and began to talk to each other unscrupulously.

After getting rid of a few military attachΓ©s who had come forward to toast, the contractor found a random place in the hall and sat down, quietly looking at the noisy hall, like a goshawk hiding in the corner, waiting for an opportunity to find prey.

"Just now, thank you."

Lin Jue walked up to him, looked at him and said.

Although she knew that the contractor would not act for no reason, and he had his own purpose, it was a fact that she was "rescued" because of this, and no matter what, she still wanted to be grateful.

"Thanks for what?"

The contractor looked up, as if he was still a little surprised, "I'll do this, not because of the county lord. ”

The expected answer, but Lin Jue didn't care, "Anyway, I've already thanked you, as for accepting it or not, it's up to you." ”

The contractor smiled, suddenly seemed to think of something, looked elsewhere, and after a while, he spoke again, "What is the purpose of the county lord coming all the way to the northwest?" ”

Belch......

didn't expect him to ask so suddenly, Lin Jue couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

For what, exactly?

For someone who doesn't know where they are.

"Didn't I tell you the purpose of being here from the beginning?"

Lin Jue said angrily.

She hates this kind of pretending to be profound in her life.

"Did you find him?"

The contractor didn't care about her attitude at all, and he rarely continued to ask.

"Didn't Lord Ji just say that he took the secret order and went elsewhere, naturally he didn't find it." , Lin Jue hated the feeling of being taken away like this, so he quietly changed the topic, "I said, can you take care of your sister, it's really indecent to go to someone else's house to grab things like this!" ”

As soon as Vika was mentioned, Lin Jue was full of anger.

Seeing this, the contractor laughed, "I said a long time ago, Vika has always been like this, even if I want to, I can't manage it." (To be continued.) )
