"I don't want to go around any more detours with you, we confessed, I won't marry her," Lin Haoyan put away the knife, "I know that I also have a young brother, he is your father and son, I don't ask for much, give me five years, and I will give way after five years." ”

"What the hell are you! …… What do you want to do? Both of them put away their goodwill in disguise, and Empress Dowager Mei asked in a cold voice.

Lin Haoyan didn't know when he had already walked to the window, his right hand was raised slightly, and the few old men who were guarding the Empress Dowager Mei wanted to raise their swords again. It made Lin Haoyan a little crying and laughing, so he had to put down his right hand and use his left hand to push the window out.

Seeing the hazy moon hanging on the branches outside the window, Lin Haoyan finally felt a little relieved, and he said: "I want to make this country so that everyone can survive." That's all. ”

"I have ordered the recruitment of new sages, and the new policy will be promulgated and implemented this year, and I hope that I will make the life of my people better." Lin Haoyan pressed his hand and signaled to the old men that he would not make any more moves, although he did not receive any results. The three swords were still centered on Empress Dowager Mei, and they did not appear to have slackened at all.

"How can the law of the ancestors change when it is said to change! You are destroying the century-old foundation of our Lanhe Empire! Empress Dowager Mei was angry and threw another teacup in the direction where Lin Haoyan was.

Lin Haoyan gently dodged sideways, and also let more moonlight imprint into the house.

"I am creating a thousand-year-old foundation for the Lan River." Lin Haoyan didn't care, he said lightly: "Queen Mother, open the window and take a look at the outside world." ”

Lin Haoyan understood that it was extremely difficult to convince that stubborn old woman, but no matter what, he also wanted to do it, even if it was for the moonlight outside the window.

Empress Dowager Mei, you should also go out and have a look.

"I've only got five years to go, and I think it's a good deal." Lin Haoyan completely turned sideways, and the moonlight quietly touched the hem of Empress Dowager Mei's skirt.

"Your Majesty, how do you prove that you will not go back?" An old man asked, he was the first to leave the Night Wolf Force to serve as a guard for the royal family, and it was most appropriate for him to ask questions.

Lin Haoyan sneered, not everyone likes to sleep with the throne in his arms, for him, the throne is just a constraint and a poison.

The nectar of man, the poison of me.

"There are thousands of people in this world who want to be emperors, why don't they do it?" Lin Haoyan asked rhetorically, and then replied: "Because they cherish their lives more, and so do I, I don't think the throne will be as important as my life." ”

"Good!" Empress Dowager Mei did not make any further delays, she moved her gaze to Lin Haoyan: "I promise you, in five years, as long as you don't shake the country's foundation, everything is up to you, and after five years, you will leave by yourself." ”

Lin Haoyan even suspected that he had misheard, he was almost unstable and didn't stand still, but with his current physical fitness, it was impossible to have auditory hallucinations, so he hurriedly returned to the Empress Dowager Mei's seat and thanked him solemnly and sincerely.

"Queen Mother, really let it ...... Is the commander at will? ”

"There's no need for him to lie, after all, he doesn't have a few years to live." Empress Dowager Mei's words were still cold: "Go and close the window for me." ”

Although there was some friction and exposed his strength to recover, at least the result of the negotiation was satisfactory, and the heavy stone that was pressing on Lin Haoyan's heart was finally moved away tonight, so he walked briskly, and even hummed a wordless song in a happy mood.

Out of the palace gate, Shi Yiqiu had already waited in front of the door, although it was a little rude to poke her head into the palace wall, but she still wanted to catch the look on Lin Haoyan's face for the first time.

Finally seeing Lin Haoyan, Shi Yiqiu breathed a sigh of relief, she also knew that Empress Dowager Mei was a difficult character to deal with, Lin Haoyan hurried back for the first time, not to go back to the big bed in the dormitory and sleep well with herself, but to quietly detour to see Empress Dowager Mei, which proved that the significance of this matter to Lin Haoyan is not trivial.

The most satisfying thing about Shi Yiqiu is that she never asks much, and when she saw Lin Haoyan coming out, her steps were a little brisk, but she asked gently: "How?" ”

"Success!" Lin Haoyan picked up Shi Yiqiu, causing Shi Yiqiu to exclaim. Lin Haoyan hugged Shi Yiqiu in his hand, laughed and spun around several times.

Shi Yiqiu could see that Lin Haoyan was in a very good mood now, so she followed him, but Lin Haoyan turned a little fast, so fast that the stars in the sky were turned into circles, and Shi Yiqiu was a little dizzy. had to beg for mercy, Shi Yiqiu tightly hugged Lin Haoyan's neck with one hand, and kept beating with the other hand, but she didn't dare to push too hard, for fear that Lin Haoyan would not grasp herself, and it would be embarrassing to push herself down from Lin Haoyan's hands.

"Slow down! Your Majesty, slow down! ”

Lin Haoyan finally stopped, Lin Haoyan bent down to let Shi Yiqiu go to the ground, but he was also a little unsteady, and he realized that he was indeed too excited just now.

Looking at Shi Yiqiu's flushed face, although he couldn't help it, he was embarrassed to apologize, so he had to kick Lin Hanyu, who was still leaning on the door and falling asleep.

Lin Hanyu slept soundly - the night wolf didn't pick a place to sleep, if necessary, he could sleep standing up. was kicked inexplicably, and was just about to get angry, and when he looked up and saw that the person who kicked him was Lin Hao, the flame couldn't get out of his anger all of a sudden. Scratching the back of his head, I don't know why I suddenly seemed to provoke Lin Haoyan......

"If you want to sleep and take your brothers back to sleep, isn't it a shame for the dignified imperial commander to ask Hanako to sleep on the side of the road?" Lin Haoyan's nameless anger was sprinkled on Lin Hanyu.

Lin Hanyu was already in a daze when he woke up, but now he was even more confused, he first pinched his thigh and then called out "wow", and found that this was not a strange dream, and then reached out to try the temperature of Lin Haoyan's forehead.

Lin Haoyan probably guessed Lin Hanyu's thoughts, and was even more embarrassed, he slapped Lin Hanyu's hand away with one hand: "Get out!" I'm awake! ”

Lin Hanyu, who didn't know why, touched his head and disappeared into the palace group with a few vertical jumps, and then a few more vertical jumps fell down not long after, and once again confirmed that Lin Haoyan was indeed not in a state of delirium, and quickly picked up the wine jug that fell on the ground and ran.

Shi Yiqiu saw the whole process in her eyes, covering her mouth and laughing all the time, of course she knew that Lin Haoyan couldn't let go, so she had to spill her anger on Lin Hanyu, who was innocently lying on the gun.

"Okay, okay, Your Majesty is tired all the way, so let's go back to sleep first." Shi Yiqiu said.

Lin Haoyan nodded: "This is reasonable!" As he spoke, he picked up Shi Yiqiu again and walked towards the dormitory with a smile.

Outside Lanting City, a convoy moved forward slowly, the convoy was not long, and people with long-distance business travel experience could recognize it at a glance, this was the kind of lone convoy that did not stop at the post station much. Not to mention the body of the horse, but the carriage was covered with dust. Unlike ordinary caravans, this kind of caravan rarely stops at a post station to rest, or only resupplies at a few fixed post stations. The advantage of this is that it will not expose too much of its own information, and it will take less time, which is a very important disadvantage for some businesses, because the lone convoy often does not take the official road and chooses to take a shortcut, it is very likely to meet a good man, robbers, no matter which dynasty or generation, is always like a leek, no matter how you cut it, you can't cut it clean.

For this reason, solo teams often work with the board or have a strong escort. Fortunately, with the escort of the Knights Templar, Xu Lingling was in danger all the way, and finally came to Lanting. Xie Xiyan knew their Holy Maiden best, and when he guessed the Holy Maiden's thoughts, he ordered the convoy to speed up two days ago, intending to rest in one breath when he arrived at Lan Ting.

Xie Xiyan only faced up to his position after the emperor was awakened by Zhao Fu, and now he has regained his heart and is a good Templar with peace of mind. It was precisely this performance that made him take on the task of escorting Xu Lingling's Islam at a young age.

"Holy Maiden, Lan Ting has arrived." Xie Xiyan half-knelt in front of Xu Lingling's carriage and asked for instructions.

"Yikes! So fast! Xu Lingling was a little surprised, and poked his head out of the carriage to observe.

"Shall we go in now, or will we wait until dawn when the city defenses are opened?" Xie Xiyan asked for further instructions.

Xu Lingling had already jumped off the carriage, the clear moon was in the sky, the towering city wall of Lanting was shining with a strict black light, she looked at Lanting City, her eyes were full of curiosity and yearning, and there was a faint unbearable touch in the depths of her eyes.

"No need, let's camp here and rest." Xu Lingling replied.

"Okay, we'll go into the city tomorrow......" Xie Xiyan answered as he should.

"No need, we won't go into the city, wait for the repairs to be finished, and leave tomorrow." Xu Lingling interrupted Xie Xiyan's words and repeated his choice again.

Xie Xiyan understood what Xu Lingling meant, he was a little suspicious of his ears, and asked Xu Lingling again: "Holy Maiden, we ...... Not going into town? ”

Xu Lingling smiled helplessly: "Don't go into the city." ”

"Why!" Xie Xiyan stopped what he was doing and handed the utensils to be carried to the nearest knight beside him, "We have enough time, we can repair in the Lan Ting for at least two days, besides...... He should be in Lan Ting. ”

When Xie Xiyan said that, he was naturally referring to Zhao Fu, although he was very unhappy, Xie Xiyan also had to admit that he was indeed inferior to Zhao Fu. One is the youngest town guard (now a great general) in the Lan River Empire, and the other is just a Templar of the Church expelled from the small country, and the two are completely incomparable.

Although Xie Xiyan didn't like Zhao Fu, he really knew that Xu Lingling had a good impression of Zhao Fu, and most of the information about Zhao Fu during the period was collected by him, thinking that Xu Lingling had deliberately cared about the route before departure, Xie Xiyan was not a fool, how could he not guess Xu Lingling's thoughts.

Xu Lingling didn't want to enter the city, but it was obviously in front of him, but he didn't dare to take another step forward, which seemed to be a cowardly emotion of homesickness, which made Xu Lingling very confused. He came here without permission, what would he think, would he feel that he was very ...... Frivolous? What do you think, I don't have that kind of relationship with him...... Xu Lingling's face suddenly turned red.

Xu Lingling walked closer to Lanting, Xie Xiyan hurriedly followed, and the two kept moving forward like this, until the towering walls of Lanting City continued to enlarge and magnify in their eyes, and finally covered half of the night sky, and the moonlight connected the shadows of the two to the corners of the city wall.

Xu Lingling stretched out a hand and gently stroked the city wall, and the cold touch was transmitted from his fingers to his heart. Originally, with the arrival of Lan Ting, the heart of various thoughts mixed together suddenly calmed down, although he didn't understand anything, but it seemed that he had made some kind of compromise.

"Let's go, let's go eat." Xu Lingling withdrew her hand, and the smile returned to her face.

Lan Ting, I've been here, and I've seen the city where he lived from afar, so it's probably enough.

Step by step, Moon Shadow finally broke away from the city wall, and Xu Lingling's pace was still a little slower.
