Chapter 39: Obviously Something Isn't Right...

Lin Xianrong, the chief official of the Great Zhou Envoy, saw Chen Duolong's response so quickly; And at this moment, they didn't see Bai Muge, the receptionist, with their own eyes.

Therefore, for Chen Duolong's words, Lin Xianrong was in a state of half-belief.

[How is it possible, the chief official of the envoy who is connected to the envoy does not come, the Tang Emperor ...... Just send a few of them deputy reception envoys to pick us up and take us into the city? 】

[This situation...... It's obviously very wrong...]

Lin Xianrong was secretly suspicious in his heart.

But since ancient times, even if the two countries have been openly at war, there has been no example of a light cut.

Although they did lie before, they said that the withdrawal of relatives was a fixed marriage.

However, since the Tang Emperor has ordered to let their Great Zhou envoys enter the city, presumably the Tang Emperor will not want their lives.

After pondering for a while, Lin Xianrong simply agreed.

Mainly because, in the case of hunger and cold, they are completely unable to support it...

"Then I'll be sorry for you."

Lin Xianrong immediately thanked him.

He didn't rush to ask about the whereabouts of the presiding official who came at noon today, Bai Muge, and why he didn't come at the moment.

Lin Xianrong also understood in his heart that if he asked, it would definitely be in vain.

Perhaps, no one will bother with them at all.

Sure enough.

But listening to Lin Xianrong's words of thanks, Chen Duolong and other reception officials on the city platform were expressionless, and they had no intention of going down to the city to greet them in person.

But he has been standing as he is, standing on the platform of the city.

Only the guards who came to open the door reminded them coldly: "Everyone, please enter the city quickly!" ”

This cold attitude alone can't help but make people suspicious.

Through these words, it is also easy to perceive what the attitude of the Tang Dynasty towards the envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty is.

At the same time, this also verified the previous speculation in Lin Xianrong's mind in disguise.

But at this moment, Lin Xianrong can't care so much.

Anyway, they won't die when they go into the city.

Everything will be said when the stomach is filled.

"Thank you for the reminder."

After smiling and thanking the soldiers who opened the door, Lin Xianrong and other officials of the envoy group finally entered the gate of Datang City.

Then, they followed Chen Duolong and others to the Sifang Pavilion together.

……

The capital of the Tang Dynasty, at the entrance of the Sifang Pavilion.

Chen Duolong and other reception officials took the lead in stopping their pace, and Lin Xianrong and other Great Zhou envoys also stopped.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the drinks are ready, so go in by yourselves."

Glancing at Lin Xianrong and the others beside him, and pretending to look up at the sky, Chen Duolong said nonchalantly, "Now, the time is not early, and the official still has something to do, so he will go back to the house first." ”

"I'll take my leave." Seeing this situation, the reception officials of Honglu Temple also echoed it.

Without waiting for Lin Xianrong and the others to respond, they had already left on their own.

It wasn't until there were no Tang officials around him, Lin Xianrong and other Great Zhou envoys, that he turned his head and looked at the Sifang Pavilion in front of him.

For a while, everyone was disgusted by their scene, and they were a little dazed.

"My lord, let's ......"

Without waiting for everyone to finish speaking, Lin Xianrong interrupted directly, and then sighed and ordered: "Hey, let's go in first." ”

"Yes..."The envoys of the Great Zhou nodded and followed Lin Xianrong into the hall.

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.

After all, this is on the territory of the Great Tang Dynasty, not the territory of their Great Zhou Kingdom.

To be able to enter the city tonight is already a blessing in misfortune for them.

It's better than being outside the city, alternating between cold and hungry...

After entering the Sifang Pavilion, someone received them, but the attitude of the receptionist was the same cold.

Lin Xianrong and the others didn't care.

in the room.

Seeing the table on the dining table, a table of meals is indeed as Chen Duolong said, the wine and wine have already been prepared!

Moreover, the food is also very hearty, and it also exudes residual heat.

As soon as you can see it, it must not be long before these things are ready.

The envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who had already been hungry and thirsty, were salivating and swallowing their saliva.

"Your Excellency..."

There were officials in the Great Zhou envoy group, who couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and at the same time looked at Lin Xianrong and reminded him inquiringly.

Lin Xianrong instantly understood, glanced at everyone and ordered: "Eat first." ”

"Yes, sir!"

In response, the envoys of the Great Zhou immediately sat down and began to swallow dates.

It was quiet and no one bothered them.

No one was poisoned in the food.

After being full of wine and food, Lin Xianrong and the others saw that it was not early, and they were a little sleepy, and they were ready to go to sleep.

But at this moment.

'Bang! Bang! Bang! ’

The sound of weapons clashing came from outside their doors, and as soon as they heard it, someone was fighting.

At the same time, they heard the guards outside the door, shouting into the air: "Who are you waiting for?!" ”

"Humph!"

The person who came just snorted coldly, and then there was no reply, only the sound of the battle, but it was extremely loud.

“???” Lin Xianrong, who had just laid down.

“???” The Great Zhou envoys are everyone.

This change outside the door frightened them to get up from the bed and peek out of the window to determine who the crowd was.

But at this moment, a dart 'poofed' through the window.

"Bang!"

The dart flew in precisely and stuck to the doorpost not far from Lin Xianrong's ear, with a note left on it.

Lin Xianrong was frightened by this sudden dart.

But after all, he is an old official, and he has obviously seen such things before, and he can't help but be very familiar with people who act in this style.

"It's someone from the Sun and Moon God Cult?"

Lin Xianrong said secretly in his heart, frowning at the same time.

However, when his eyes swept out of the door again, he found that the person who had just thrown the dart had already fled.

Lin Xianrong vigilantly pulled out the dart.

I saw that on the note, there was a line of words written on it:

[Don't worry, my lord, the sect leader has entered the inside of Datang, and the specific information in Datang is being placed outside the Sifang Pavilion, thirty meters away, in Room No. 2 of Tianxiang Pavilion Restaurant. 】

“???” Lin Xianrong couldn't help but be stunned.

What's going on?

[Could it be that the Shangguan Sect Master is pretending to be sincere, but in fact he is secretly investigating the specific situation of Datang for us? ] 】

[In that case......]

Thinking like this, Lin Xianrong felt that the previous incident might have been his guess wrong.

[It's just that this is also very likely that it was a maze deliberately laid by the Tang Emperor! ] 】

Even though he was so suspicious in his heart, Lin Xianrong still couldn't resist the temptation.

After all, one of the purposes of their coming to Datang was to investigate the situation in Datang.

He only confirmed half of the previous speculation, and the other half was not confirmed.

"It seems that I have to go out in person and leave it to them."

Having made up his mind in his heart, Lin Xianrong hurriedly changed his clothes, and took advantage of the night's work to slip towards Tianxiang Pavilion.
