Yan Linglong saw the posture of the peony retracting the bow, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she said in surprise: "King Xian, there are female soldiers of our Great Yan Country Women's Army by your side?" ”

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "Peony was indeed born in the women's army before, but marrying a husband and following her husband has long had nothing to do with the Great Yan Kingdom, why, Her Royal Highness the princess still wants to ask for the guilt and ask the king?" ”

"Not really, just curious." Yan Linglong said with a smile: "I am in charge of the women's army, and I can be regarded as meeting my old people in a foreign country, so I naturally have a different color. ”

Xiao Rui said: "Let's change places, this place is bloody, the corpses are lying in the pavilion, and the scenery is ruined." ”

Yan Linglong nodded, and walked out of the pavilion with Xiao Rui and took a walk by the lake.

"King Xian, these assassins are so arrogant that they are secretly assassinating us after us! I hope that the Great Xia Kingdom will investigate their origins as soon as possible, and then be sure to eliminate them to avoid major events that will affect the meeting between the two countries! Yan Linglong said.

Xiao Rui asked rhetorically, "What does the princess mean, you don't know these assassins?" ”

Yan Linglong was surprised: "How can I know each other!" I'm a newcomer, unfamiliar with life, and I'm entertained by you. ”

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "What His Highness said is very true, don't worry, I will investigate as soon as possible, I don't think the time is too early, I should escort you back." ”

"Good!" Yan Linglong did not refuse.

Xiao Rui sent Yan Linglong back to the other hospital, asked about the content of the preliminary negotiation, and simply urged a few words, and then went home.

Jia Xu was waiting in the mansion, saw Xiao Rui coming back, and asked, "Your Highness, seeing that your brows are locked, haven't you met an assassin?" ”

Xiao Rui said: "I met it, but it was not the same as I speculated. ”

"Huh?" Jia Xu looked curious.

Xiao Rui described the process of the attack and continued: "Yan Linglong only arrived in the capital yesterday, and she is going out to play today, and she only takes Baiyun Mountain alone, isn't it just to lure out the assassins?" And the assassin to be drawn out is not from the Great Zhao Kingdom, nor from the Great Qi Kingdom, let alone the assassins of the Great Xia Kingdom, but the assassins of his Great Yan Kingdom. However, this wave of assassins seems to be deliberately tempting, and did not send a master. That's why I wondered, suspecting that it was Yan Linglong who was acting to show me, but she really wanted to lure out the assassin, but the assassin was careful and didn't go out of the nest. What do you think, sir? ”

Jia Xu analyzed it and said, "I think that Yan Linglong is not acting, but really wants to lead out the enemies among the Great Yan envoys. After all, when I went out today, few people knew about it, and on the side of the Great Xia Kingdom, only His Highness knew, so naturally it would not be leaked out, because Yan Linglong's assassination would not be beneficial to His Highness at all, and Yan Linglong also understood this. So it can only be against your own people. And those who know about going out are none other than Baiyun Mountain, Du Juan, Lan Junbo and Huang Qiusheng. Yan Linglong was luring out the enemy, but the enemy in the shadows also knew that assassinating Yan Linglong was not that simple, so he just sent a few assassins to set up a suspicious formation. ”

"Obviously, Prince Yan of the Great Yan Kingdom does not want the alliance to succeed. Because once successful, Princess Linglong's prestige in the Yan Kingdom will be even greater. Jia Xu said.

Xiao Rui nodded, it seemed that Baiyun Mountain was not Yan Linglong's person, but was it really not as guessed?

It seems that Du Juan and Lan Junbo are Yan Linglong's henchmen, so they can be firmly convinced?

There is never a real enemy or friend.

Unless you have loyalty.

Xiao Rui glanced at the system and saw that Jia Xu and Hua Tuo's loyalty values were still 100/100, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud.

This is the henchman, this is his own person.

Xiao Rui recalled that Yan Linglong was not lost after her assassination, and it seemed that she also understood that it was not so easy to find the black hand.

"Ding Dong..."

"The new task has started, please check it out with the host."

Xiao Rui was stunned, he didn't expect the task to start again, sure enough, it was the task storm period, come on, come on.

He immediately checked the task, and saw that the task was:

"New Mission: Help Yan Linglong find the mastermind behind the Great Yan Mission, complete the advent value +20, and fail to prove that the host's ability is insufficient."

"Current Advent (60/100)"

Xiao Rui didn't expect that the system would let him help Yan Linglong, so the intention of the system was to promote this alliance?

The alliance between Great Xia and Great Yan is beneficial to Great Xia and harmless, because Great Xia and Great Zhao have enmity, and it is impossible to get along with Great Qi amicably, and only Great Yan is left on the border, if you can get along well, you will not be afraid of Great Zhao and Great Qi joining forces, and at the same time, you can eat and eat if you start a war against the two countries, and you don't have to worry about being attacked behind your back.

The Great Yan Kingdom is even more eager to form an alliance with the Great Xia State, it has an enmity with the Great Zhao State, and there is a Great Wei State behind it, if it can't win over the Great Xia, then it is ambushed on all sides, and it is worried all day long.

Xiao Rui is naturally optimistic about the alliance, but he is afraid that the system will make him stumble, and he will be biased towards Hushan, so he can only endure the pain and cut his love and disrupt this alliance.

It seems that the system still understands the general situation.

Well, touch your head.

If you are interested in forming an alliance, can you be open and honest?

"Sir, if I find Yan Linglong, meet her honestly, and help her find out the black hand around her, do you think she will agree?" Xiao Rui asked.

Jia Xu said: "Naturally, I will agree, because there is no harm to her, but I am afraid that she will think more." ”

"What do you think about? Honesty is sincerity, not undressing and honesty. Xiao Rui smiled: "Even if she thinks about it, she is afraid that she owes me a favor, and when the time comes, she will pay a big price in the matter of forming an alliance." ”

Jia Xu smiled and said, "What His Highness said is extremely true. ”

Xiao Rui nodded, and went to the other courtyard in the evening, fortunately it was not far away.

Now that the negotiation has just begun, we have to face three hostile forces, the assassins of Da Zhao, the assassins of Da Qi, and the black hands of Da Yan.

"Sir, do you think there are any black hands in our Great Xia that are also waiting for an opportunity to try to disrupt the alliance?" Xiao Rui asked suddenly.

Jia Xu stroked his beard and smiled, and said, "Your Highness has finally thought of this aspect, and I can say with certainty that there is!" ”

"Driving the wolf and devouring the tiger, causing trouble to the east, it is a great plan, the position of the crown prince has been contested, His Royal Highness has earned fame as a positive envoy this time, it will naturally anger others, if you can disrupt this alliance, once Your Highness loses, it is likely to lose the opportunity to compete for the prince. After all, being able to eliminate one is one. What do you say, Your Highness? Jia Xu laughed.

Xiao Rui nodded, in front of the crown prince, the alliance really doesn't matter.

Jia Xu said: "Your Highness, I have secretly checked the other eight princes these days and found that they are not simple, and they must not be deceived by appearances. Including the Nine Emperor Princes, who have a close relationship with His Royal Highness. ”

"Xiao Yan?" Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I remember what Mr. reminded me." ”

They all grew up in the deep courtyard of the palace, and even if they don't learn tricks and tricks, they can see it. A simple prince can't survive in the capital. Their mother concubine is fighting, they are also fighting, and there are so many people around who are engaged in careers, which one is not an old fox.

Although Xiao Rui is very smart, he is young after all, and he is still weak in terms of intrigue and trickery.

"In the future, I'll have to trouble Mr. to check for me." Xiao Rui pleaded.

Jia Xu laughed and said, "Your Highness is polite, it's a matter of duty." ”

Soon, night fell.

After the hour, Xiao Rui prepared to go to the night party Yan Linglong.
