Chapter 66: The True and False King (3)

Due to the presence of Yangzong, it was inconvenient for him to ask Xing'er in detail, so he directly cut to the point: "This king heard from Tubo to ask for the envoy Yangzong, and only then did he know that it was you who pretended to be this king two months ago and went to Luoqi City. Today, Cha Wenqian summoned you, firstly, because the king wants to thank you in person, and secondly, at the invitation of Lord Yangzong, so that you can meet him. You don't have to kneel, just get up and talk. ”

Although Li Qi said that he wanted to thank Lai Xing'er, his body still sat motionless, without expressing his thanks.

Yang Zong knew that there was a huge difference in the status of Lai Xing'er and King Mu, and with him present, he would be very uncomfortable when he talked to Lai Xing'er, so he got up again, and saluted Li Qi with his palms: "Xiaguan, please see Lai Xing'er, just to catch up with him, don't dare to bother the prince, you see ......."

His original intention was to ask Li Qi to allow him and Lai Xing'er to talk elsewhere alone, but Li Qi waved his hand at him with a smile and said, "Xiao Wang and he are also destined. Since he is called a little hero by adults, he must have extraordinary courage and skills. Today, adults may wish to talk to him about the past in front of Xiao Wang, if he really talks extraordinarily and has seen people, Xiao Wang will also be used for him. ”

Yangzong had no choice but to sit down and ask Lai Xing'er in front of Li Qi: "Is the girl who was with you okay now?" He was worried that saying Nayu's name would cause unnecessary trouble, so he asked intentionally vaguely.

"She's fine." Lai Xing'er didn't want Li Qi to know the truth that Nayu was still being held by Wu Bi, so he changed his words and asked Yang Zong, "Lord Lin, Gonggong Shang, and a group of people from the mission have all returned to Chang'an with the adults?" I saw 'Chasing the Wind' outside the palace, it must have been brought back by an adult, right? ”

Yang Zong subconsciously looked at King Mu, who was sipping tea with his head bowed and silent, and replied with a little embarrassment: "That Lord Shang and the rest of the delegation are indeed Chang'an who came with me, and I also brought back your mount, but Lord Lin ...... He is now the prime minister of my Tibetan court. ”

"How is this possible? Lord Lin has always been loyal to the imperial court, how could he become the minister of Tibet? Lai Xing'er didn't think about it, and blurted out a question.

"Ahem"

Muwang Li inspired two dry coughs, he had heard the news of Lin Shu's surrender to Tibet, in the past when he was in the East Palace, Lin Shu could be regarded as half of his master, with his understanding of Lin Shu, the reason why he surrendered to Tibet, there must be another hidden secret. It's just that Lin Shu did not return to Chang'an with Shang Jing this time, and according to the scouts sent by the imperial court in Tubo, the Tubo court has recently canonized a Han man surnamed Lin as the internal minister whose status is second only to the big and small theories. In the current situation, Li Qi didn't want others to mention Lin Shu in public, and prematurely put on the hat of a traitor.

Yang Zong witnessed Lin Shu in order to protect Shangjing and the rest of the mission to return to Chang'an alive, and report to the imperial court about the recent developments in the Tubo court, and was willing to sacrifice his own honor, and agreed to talk about Lange and changed to Tubo as an official, but he could not explain it to Lai Xing'er, so he had to change the topic to other places.

"Before I came to Chang'an, my teacher Gongpot specially told me to meet you during my stay in Chang'an, and asked me to tell you one thing in person: no matter what happens between the two countries in the future, he will go to meet you in Middle-earth during his lifetime."

"Is that really what Guru Kampot said?" Lai Xing'er's eyes lit up, and his mind passed through the scene of thousands of pedestrians and ordinary people bowing to Guru Kampot on the way from Nonggeyi to Luoqi City. Now, Guru Kampot still remembers his covenant with Middle-earth, which makes Lai Xing'er feel supreme dignity and glory.

However, Li Qi, the king of Mu who sat high in the middle, keenly grasped a very important message from Yangzong's words: in the Tubo Dynasty, the power of the Lord and the faction should not be underestimated. This can be called good news for the imperial court, which is in the middle of the north-south relationship.

At the same time, he also faintly felt that Yang Zong was in front of him, and he unabashedly conveyed to Lai Xing'er the wish of the Tibetan master to visit Middle-earth, and whether he was intentionally hinting to himself: He is also a member of the Lord and the faction. It seems that this kid called Xing'er is really not simple!

Zhu'er stood beside King Mu, seeing that Li Qi's face was uncertain, for fear that he would be unfavorable to Lai Xing'er, so he quietly approached his ear and reported to Li Qi the fact that he learned that Lai Xing'er was ordered by Wu Bi to guard the Jin State Mansion, and specially reminded Li Qi that Lai Xing'er was an old man in the East Palace and was once favored by the emperor.

"Please go back to the city of Raksha, and tell the Lama Kampot that in Middle-earth, there will always be a friend who admires him, and is always waiting for his arrival."

Lai Xing'er's voice trembled with excitement in her heart when she said this.

Even though Yang Zong wanted to spend more time with Lai Xing'er, he was forced by Li Qi to refuse to give him a chance to talk to Lai Xing'er alone, so he had to get up and say goodbye to Li Qi after relaying the words of Master Gongpot to Lai Xing'er.

Li Qi didn't do much to keep it, only said that when Yangzong set off from Chang'an and returned to Luo, he would personally go to the Changting Pavilion to see him off, and then ordered Zhu'er to personally send Yangzong back to the pavilion to rest.

There were only two people left in the hall, Li Qi and Lai Xing'er. Li Qi suddenly shouted at Xing'er and shouted: "You pretended to be the king without permission, and when you entered the law and saw Zampu, do you know that you have committed the crime of defrauding the king?" ”

Lai Xing'er originally had a good impression of the real King Mu because he had been pretending to be King Mu for many days. However, since he saw Li Qi himself today, Lai Xing'er noticed that he was more or less hostile to him, and at this time, he was suddenly asked, which naturally aroused Lai Xing'er's anger.

"On the day of his return to Chang'an, he reported to the emperor all kinds of situations encountered by the mission in the city, and the emperor did not say that he was guilty of bullying the king, and he hoped that His Highness would be cautious." Lai Xing'er's face did not change, and he replied softly and hardly.

Li Qi was choked by Lai Xing'er's words, and didn't answer for a while.

Lai Xing'er didn't want to stay here longer, so he also hugged his fists and said goodbye to Li Qi: "Your Highness has nothing else to say to Zaixia, please allow Zaixia to leave here." ”

After all, Li Qi is young and vigorous, and he has no city government, and his words are plain and he is pouted by Xing'er, and his face is a little unbearable. After seeing Lai Xing'er, in fact, Li Qi didn't have any ill feelings towards Lai Xing'er in his heart, but out of the young man's desire to win, he deliberately added evil words to frustrate his spirit, and then he could be brought under his command.

At this time, seeing that Lai Xing'er refused to leave any face for himself, Li Qi was annoyed and ashamed, and shouted loudly outside the hall: "Come on, put this kid who doesn't know what to do...... Locked up in the guest room, no one was allowed to give him food, and after the time had passed, he waited for the king's fate. (To be continued.) )
