Chapter 738: Coping [Asking for Pink]
Amid the cacophony of cheers, the shouting was not noticeable.
When the eggs and tomatoes flew out of the flowers, not many people noticed, but the bright red tomato juice and the light yellow egg liquid splashed two obvious marks on the carpet, and someone in the front row near the carpet noticed it, and the arm holding the flowers unconsciously put it down.
Then, like an infection, the cheers of the civilians who heard the shouts and the smudges on the machete carpet faded a lot.
The cheers in the distance continued, and the crowded line of sight limited the view of the people, and people unknowingly waved flowers, reflecting the gradual silence of the cheers around the red carpet.
Lin An noticed the shouting voice for the first time, and watched this scene from afar.
It was only one person who threw the egg, and there was no follow-up development, so this matter was not deliberately instigated and planned by some people, but a certain process also reflected some trends of thought among the low-level civilians.
You must know that these people standing on the side of the street to greet them have been selected and investigated. Especially after the recent assassination, for the only prince, the city guard and the security department will only be more rigorous, at least three layers of filtering, must be a permanent resident with an innocent family background, with the guarantee of family and close neighbors, docile and kind, no brawls and evil deeds in recent years, will appear in the welcoming crowd on the side of the street.
There are still opponents of smashing eggs at the envoys in such a group, but what about the ordinary civilians of Danton?
Ranster, who was waving his hand right away, did not notice the shouting at first, until he noticed Jupitra beside him holding the reins of his horse.
Lenster slowed his horse a little, turned his head, and found that Jupiter was staring at the carpet in front of him, his eyes like he had seen a large, disgusting fly, and his face gradually darkened.
"Damn untouchables!"
The captain of the city guard team, who was responsible for maintaining order on this section of the road, discovered the situation as soon as possible and cursed.
I was just about to call my men to arrest someone. He suddenly realized that where the shout had come from, several people dressed as civilians with gloomy eyes were crowding in that direction unobtrusively, and one of them glanced at him coldly. The gaze is like an ice needle.
The team leader was shocked, knowing that this must be the black commanders who have turned Dandong upside down in recent days. I felt a chill in my heart, and I immediately thought of the dark water prison and screams in the south of the city.
His heart was cold, and under the hundredfold stimulation of the threat to his life, his brain spun at an unprecedented speed, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and shouted, "Welcome His Highness Jupiter back to the capital." grabbed a large bouquet of flowers in the hand of a civilian next to him and threw it high.
At this time, the civilians near this carpet had not yet quieted down due to the sudden and unexpected bending, and the secret agents and plainclothes city guards who were mixed in the crowd all concocted the same method. Shout long live the Empire and throw out the flowers in your hands or snatched up.
The people are all obedient, and some civilians who don't know why also subconsciously cheered, throwing a bouquet of flowers in their arms.
The crowd nearby thought it was a new arrangement, and a large number of flowers were thrown into the air. Flying in the air, the purple and red stole people's attention, the petals rained down, and the bouquets that fell on the red carpet formed a thick carpet that covered the conspicuous smudge on the carpet.
"Long live the Empire!"
"Welcome back to His Royal Highness!"
"Welcome Merlin Envoy!"
The plainclothes had already restrained the people who had been making trouble before, and the roaring cheers and flowers covered the scene in front of them.
Ranster's smile remained the same. Nodding slightly to Jupiter, Jupiter, who had a dark face, smiled a little, and the two of them slowly continued to walk forward with the reins of their horses as if nothing had happened, as if nothing had happened.
β¦β¦
Phoebe II was seriously ill in bed, and the entire envoy greeting procedure was performed by Phoebe II's brother, Prince Liv, because Phoebe II's illness was still kept secret, the reception procedures of the envoy could not be reduced, so after the handover ceremony and banquet, and went to visit Phoebe II, Jupiter returned to the dormitory, and the sky was already white.
But despite his exhaustion, he immediately asked someone to ask about what had happened before, and he was furious.
"Who were the civilians who rebelled before? Find out! Take him, and all his loved ones - all! Hang them all!! β
"Wait, Jupiter, since that civilian has been arrested, let him be punished according to normal procedures, so as not to cause panic and discontent among the people! But I am bothered by the fact that I am puzzled by the fact that Merlin is considered to be the conspirator of His Highness Aubrey. Ranster stopped Jupiter, and he thought more deeply about the events of the day.
"Of course, it was because I was protected by the envoys and the two crowns, and returned to Dandong unharmed, which made some people's hopes in vain! To discredit the legaries, and by the way, to plant the sudden deaths of my brothers on me, and to tarnish my reputation! It's a pity that the important ministers and those noble lords who are loyal to the royal family are not fools! β
At this, Jupiter's face became gloomy again.
With what Lancet knew about the prince, he knew that Jupiter must have felt uneasy about his life once again, and used anger to hide his fear.
Lancet said quietly: "Judging from the attitude of the two princes, they do reveal some worrying tendencies. β
"Lancet, my dear loyal friend, your temperament is so mild, it's not just a worrying tendency, it's a naked ambition at allβdidn't you see the faces of my two uncles, if it weren't for my insistence on seeing my father, and for your presence, I don't know how many ways they would have come up with to obstruct it!"
Speaking of this, Jupiter showed a little uneasiness, "No, the current court can no longer make me feel safe, I must do my best to get the forbidden demon lock rune and hand it over to the two crowns and Master Adar, without them by my side, I can't even sleep peacefully!" β
β¦β¦
Three days later.
During the day, the solemn and solemn funeral ceremonies enveloped the whole of Dandong, but when night fell again, the people had washed away the sorrow of mourning, and the inner city was still closed to feasting and drinking, but some taverns and bars in the outer city had resumed dancing and singing.
In the lively speakeasy, scantily clad dancers danced on the high platform set up in the middle, and their bewitching waist and snow arms confused the eyes of the men, cheering and cheering endlessly.
The drinkers were telling lewd jokes, and the drunkards who were shuttling through the crowd were throwing a lot of money with the guests**, a mercenary who had just returned from a mission. The ** who sold the bewitching dancer proudly carried the screaming dancer up the stairs amid the coaxing of his companions.
With the "illusion of Aegis", Lin An sat at a round table in the corner. In a space filled with the smell of ale wine and the smell of sweat, you can drink quietly and alone.
Suddenly, there was a howling whistle that was about to tear the ceiling up. Amid the neat pauses and applause of the drinkers, a half-veiled dancer swirls and falls from the air to the center of the stage.
"Oh, oh, Candace! Candace! β
If the dancer who danced the spicy dance before was a wild cat, then the dancer who has just appeared now is a living female leopard.
The fabric on her body is not short and thin, and the stage is not limited to the wooden table in the middle of the bar.
A slightly hoarse singing voice sounded, dancing unrestrainedly, and she stepped lightly on the shoulders and arms of the drinkers. Effortless kicks, dazzling dance moves, seductive eye waves, and unruly looks. It makes men can't help but have a desire to conquer.
Drinkers show off their thick arms and shoulders and muscles, taking pride in being stepped on, occasionally grabbing the fluffing skirt and the dancers giving kisses and spinning around to escape. Leaving behind a bang and the envy of the surrounding drinkers for the man who was favored.
"Candace is a natural stunner, isn't she?"
The light and shadow flashed, the fragrant wind blew on the face, and a beautiful woman who still had charm sat down in front of Lin An.
"Judging by the amount of drinks consumed at the bar tonight, it doesn't seem to need my approval to add to it...... Have a cup of honey wine! Lin An motioned to the wine lady passing by.
"Nope. Agni Whiskey, a barrel! - I'm not used to those soft sweet wines! The beautiful woman who already had fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes said meaningfully.
Lin An raised his eyebrows, not sure if the other party had noticed something.
The wine lady on the side didn't wait for Lin An's signal, she had already gone with a smile, the status of the beautiful woman in this bar was of course far from being comparable to Lin An's strange guest.
"As soon as Candace said that her master was looking for me, I immediately came over, but I didn't expect that the master behind her was also a woman - but to be able to train a stunner like Candace, of course, it should also be a woman!"
The aroma of the fire whiskey made some of the drinkers next to him look over, and the beautiful woman poured two large glasses, but did not push them in front of Lin An, she directly raised her head and poured a large glass, and put the remaining cup in front of herself, before she smiled,
"But even if it's a woman, you're a generous woman, for the sake of not drinking so happily for a long time, I'll sell you a piece of information for free, what do you want to ask, say it!"
Lin An was slightly different, of course she wouldn't think that her disguised male identity would be lightly exposed, otherwise she would have died in the ice field without a corpse, but for the sensitivity of a beautiful woman, Lin Anxin raised her evaluation a few points, and didn't ask what went wrong, smiled slightly, and got straight to the point:
"There's only one question I want to ask, how much of Kinsephenine can buy you to work for me?"
The beautiful woman paused slightly, and continued to smile, "This is not in accordance with the rules. β
She smiled sweetly as she slowly turned the empty wine glass, and when the handle of the glass was ninety degrees to hers, a group of drinkers who were less than ten paces away from them would immediately tear off the illusion and pounce on them.
But just a second before the handle was about to turn to its rightful place, the empty glass in her hand stuck to the table like a root, and she couldn't move even though the back of her hand was bruised.
Can cast spells in the city!
The beautiful woman was shocked in her heart, realizing that the person in front of her, regardless of her strength background, was not something she could contend with, and instantly gave up all resistance.
"Two thousand gold sephine, hire you and your ears for a month, and the bounty will be doubled after a month."
Lin An was very satisfied with the beauty woman's decisiveness and smiled, "Don't worry, you don't need to work hard, as long as you report to me all the information you have collected in the past two months, especially the movements of civilians and mercenaries." β
