This time, he and Liu Yourong returned from Dayuan, but it was not Dayuan who showed mercy and let them come back. Rather, they were given the task and needed to carry it out. Now, they are no longer simply the princes of Qi and the spies of the Xia Kingdom, but two supernumerary members under the Department of National Defense. Code 7089, 7090.

Thinking of this, Li Dewang only felt that the time when he fell into the hands of the National Defense Department was like a nightmare. Every day I was locked up in a dark basement, and it was dark when I opened my eyes, and it was still dark when I closed my eyes. It was only when the meal arrived every day that I could see the light from the open door. So when someone from the Department of National Defense told him that if he wanted to go out, he had to join them, and he agreed without even thinking about it.

Because the feeling of living in the dark for a long time is really suffocating and terrifying. Even though the Department of Defense did not use any force against him, he still felt like he wanted to die.

Later he was taken to a clean place, where he was left unattended every day except for his freedom. It's just that you have to take a 'fairy powder' drug, the dose is not much, but the effect is really amazing. When he was in the Xia Kingdom, he had heard that this kind of thing seemed to be popular in Mongolia. A puff can make you forget all your troubles and feel like you have entered heaven in an instant.

There are also in the territory of Xia Kingdom, but the portion is not much. Occasionally, they were brought in from Mongolia, and only high-ranking officials and dignitaries could buy them at a high price. He could have bought it in his capacity, but his father forbade him to touch it, so he gave up.

After he got used to the effect of the immortals, he understood why his father didn't allow him to touch it. Because where this is an elixir, it is simply a poison comparable to the devil. Once you get used to it, you can't shake it off. He still remembers one time when he deliberately didn't suck, and as a result, he felt as if he had fallen into eighteen layers of hell.

And this is also the means by which the Department of National Defense controls him. As long as he obediently works for the Department of National Defense, then this immortal scatter will not be broken. And this is specially formulated to minimize the damage to his body.

As the son of a country, Li Dewang naturally does not want to be controlled. But when he found a doctor with superb medical skills later, he couldn't break his dependence on Shenxian San. This made him feel so distraught that he had to obey the orders of the Department of National Defense.

When I saw Liu Yourong, who also became a member of the National Defense Department, and heard that he was also controlled by the gods like himself, he stopped thinking carefully.

However, in the face of the request of the National Defense Department to assign them to return to Xia to carry out the mission, neither of them resisted.

Originally, they were going to go back to the Xia Kingdom, but now although there are some twists and turns, they have the same end in the end.

And compared to Da Yuan's eyeliner everywhere, Xia Guo obviously reassured them more. Even if you are looking for a doctor, you don't have to worry about being trained by the Department of National Defense.

All the way east, they didn't have the heart to go shopping and see more. Outside the borders of Gansu Province, they felt the threat of war. Especially in Liangzhou, as a battlefield for the two armies of Yuan and Xia. Everywhere you can see unharvested fields and abandoned houses.

Since the two of them were from the Xia Kingdom, they were particularly 'closely' protected in Liangzhou, which had been fully occupied by the Great Yuan. It was not until the Lingbo Mountain on the right bank of the Yellow River that the Yuan army stopped. There was the armistice line between the two countries in the current Yuan and Xia, and the Xishou Baotai Military Division was stationed there.

This war initiated by the Xia State lasted only two months, and then it strangely stopped as Liangzhou was garrisoned by the Great Yuan. Now west of Liangzhou, all the way to the Lanzhou border of the Jin State, there is no longer an organized Xia army. The Xishou Baotai Military Division became a bridgehead to resist the Dayuan army.

At the moment when they came back, it was the time for Xia Guo and Dayuan to negotiate peace. Originally, according to the requirements of the Great Yuan, the Xia State ceded the boundary west of Liangzhou, and the north was bounded by Rouwolf Mountain, Lingbo Mountain and the Yellow River. But Xia Guo was unwilling, and this peace talk was difficult.

And their mission, the Department of Defense did not say clearly. Just let them return to Zhongxing Province and cooperate with the branch base of the local defense department.

In the distance, the earthy yellow city wall of Zhongxing Mansion comes into view. There are more and more refugees next to the pipeline. He is used to sitting in Dayuan's stable carriage, and he is not used to this swaying Xia Guo carriage. Stretched, and moved the bones that were about to fall apart. The outdoors outside the car kept driving the approaching refugees so that they could retreat. A stench of feces, urine, and rotting flesh wafted into the wagon, and it grew stronger.

Covering the curtain, Liu Yourong sprayed a bottle of insect repellent perfume in the car, and the smell faded. Fortunately, it is summer now, otherwise there would be more people who would freeze to death in the cold winter. But there is also a downside to the summer, which is that the corpses decompose too quickly. Although there is a special corpse collection team outside the city, it is usually dispatched only once every few days. For some corpses that are too decomposed, they don't even want to touch them.

Ignoring it like this is simply a paradise for plagues.

"Ahem, ahem..." The coughing sound could already be heard outside the car, Li Dewang put on a mask with some concern, and asked Liu Yourong to distribute some to the guards outside the car.

Those are all the palace guards who came to pick him up, and if he contracted any disease, the whole palace would spread rumors. I sprayed more mosquito repellent until a small bottle was gone, and then I relaxed a little.

"Who?!" When they arrived at the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city shouted.

"We belong to the Qi Palace, and the prince of Qi is sitting in the car, so don't you get out of the way." , King Qi's status in the Xia Kingdom is not low, and when he walks outside, he looks at people with his nostrils up. What's more, this kind of ordinary soldier who guards the city gate is not even worthy of carrying shoes in the Qi Palace.

So the guards are used to being arrogant, and they don't have any good tones.

When the soldier heard this, he naturally didn't dare to offend more. But in line with his duty, he politely asked the guards to take out the documents of Qi Wangfu and check them. Goodbye to the two people sitting in the car, presumably the younger one is the prince of Qi Wang, and he bowed flatteringly.

Compared to the outside of the city, the inside of the city is clearly a world. Although the streets are not clean, they are not full of yellow-skinned refugees. Many shops were open, and a rich lady wearing an umbrella and wearing a silk dress entered a rouge gouache shop under the service of a bunch of slaves.

The smell of food from a restaurant on the corner of the street wafted from afar, and Li Dewang couldn't help but feel a little hungry. When they passed by a green building, the girl inside still waved to them from the air.

No refugees, no hunger, no deaths.

The tall eaves of the palace can be seen from a distance, and the golden roof is magnificent and solemn.

Zhongxing Mansion still maintains the prosperity of the imperial capital of a country.

Even in the reflection of the sunset, there is a sense of water and moon mirror flowers.
