Chapter 63: Political Intrigue

A day later, on the mountain road where Shainin first encountered the bandits, a mixed team of hundreds of humans and elves, escorting several large carriages that seemed to be the kind of magic horn horses, came slowly on the mountain road.

Unlike the loose bandits Shainin encountered, this was an army of steel that spread out in a standard defensive formation. Whether it is a human or an elf in the team, there is always a slight iron-blooded flavor in their every move. There was no shouting, no crookedness, and the whole team marched meticulously and silently to the sound of the horse's hooves.

However, in the several large carriages guarded by the team, there was a crisp laughter from time to time.

……

"Sister Man, when will you and His Royal Highness Zeng have their wedding?" In a carriage at the back of the line, a crisp voice asked.

"I don't know, it's coming. Anyway, he had already informed the whole clan and brought me to meet my future parents-in-law, and they finally agreed. Hmph, now I don't believe he dares to pay his debts. It's you, Lin girl, you've also reached the age of marriage, haven't you found your Ruyi Langjun yet? ”

In the wide carriage, a human girl who looks very cute and graceful looks at another human girl who is asking questions, smiling and groaning.

Beside her, there was a middle-aged woman who was also extremely delicate.

Her ears are slightly pointed, and she appears to be an elf. She seemed to be a guard, the hideous earth armor was draped over her, and although she looked at the two girls from time to time and smiled, she also pressed the hilt of her sword, vigilantly watching the grass around her.

……

"I don't know...... Who knows, hey......" The girl Lin who asked the first question sighed faintly, and a melancholy appeared on her face.

"What are you sighing at, girl, you are actually still young, only twenty-one, and there is time to find your wishful husband." The girl known as Sister Man said with a smile.

Suddenly. She seemed to remember something again, and a trace of doubt and annoyance appeared on her face: "Could it be that the prince of the kingdom is still pestering you?" Didn't he learn enough from Brother Chi last time? Hmph, shameless! Don't worry, I'll give you your back this time. It's a pity that Brother Chi went back to Sunny Island, otherwise your brother-in-law would be here, and see who dares to beat your idea. ”

The girl known as Sister Man said indignantly.

"Huh...... Sister Man, you're thinking too simply. As the Prince of Blood Elves, His Royal Highness Zeng can't interfere too much in the internal affairs of our human kingdom. Lin Yatou smiled bitterly.

"But this is a major event in your marriage, how can it be regarded as the internal affairs of the kingdom?" Sister Man said angrily.

"Marriage...... Once it is involved in politics, it can be regarded as the internal affairs of the kingdom. Lin Yatou sighed faintly again. So said.

……

"Huh, politics? I'm afraid it's a political conspiracy, right? ”

Sister Man's face was already full of anger.

"Anyway, no matter what, we can't let them get their way! Hmph, when you can use us, you will be obedient, and now that the barbarians have attacked the home planet, the pressure on the front line has been greatly reduced. I didn't think about how to help my home planet, but he opposed our plan, and even began to deduct the military rations on our front line in every way on the grounds that there was no war on the front line. Is there still a conscience in this? ”

"And. They even offered to marry your Lin family? I'm afraid that the marriage is fake, and the annexation is real! You know, I'm faintly self-contained, and I've always ignored the royal government controlled by those timid Western Continent nobles. But I'm the remnant of the White Star in Huaxia. But they all love your Lin family deeply. ”

"After all, it was your ancestors who led us to a successful uprising and escaped. After that, the Lin family had never been a bad breeder. And almost all generations have had strategically gifted commanders. Therefore, the Xilu royal family and your Lin family are married, and you are the only one in the younger generation of your generation. Hum. Isn't it the idea of completely merging my Huaxia clan into their kingdom? What a good calculation! ”

……

"And most importantly, the prince of that kingdom is too shameless."

"Although he is not as wasteful as his fathers, he is a rare genius of my human beings for hundreds of years. If he wins your heart with his own ability, then I won't say anything, although my Chinese people don't like to marry with Xilu people, but it is not explicitly forbidden. But you obviously said you didn't like him, but that bastard is stalking you, and now he is still using the royal government to blackmail you? Hmph, what a despicable and shameless one! ”

"And, even if he is a genius, he only dares to hide in the rear, what is this? Does he dare to go to the front line to fight? He actually said that he should first preserve his noble soul vein for mankind, so he must at least have enough children before he goes to the battlefield to fight? Phew! He's almost double-digit, right? ”

"This shameless bastard! Just him? Want to marry you? Is he worthy? ”

Sister Man said a series of words with an annoyed face.

……

Then, she seemed to remember something.

"Girl, your idea of attacking the barbarian homeland and making them mobilize their troops back in a hurry is naturally very genius. But it is also difficult to achieve, and I always feel that there is very little hope for our trip to the royal capital...... Just look at what those bastards want to do! Speaking of which, the people of Xilu are actually not much worse than my Huaxia people, and most of them are good. But the royal government's group of Western Continent nobles ...... Phew! ”

Sister Man already took another sip in annoyance.

Lin Yatou's eyebrows were also full of melancholy, she sighed lowly, but she also said in a low voice: "Is there any way?" No matter how slim it is, you have to try it. How can we watch our home planet be invaded and not do something about it...... We have had enough of thousands of years of blood and tears, and we can't let our compatriots on the home planet continue to follow in our footsteps......"

"If you could...... I really want to go back to my home planet, the legendary homeland to see it......"

She suddenly said with great longing.

……

Sister Man's eyes also showed a look of longing when she heard this, she thought about it, but patted Lin Yatou's shoulder comfortingly.

"Don't worry, Brother Chi is also asking the magus in the clan to start researching ways to open up the passage - there must be a way. You must know that Brother Chi's father, as well as the Blood Elf Grand Magister Mr. Lin Hurricane, are also Star Glory Demon War. Their comprehension of elemental magic energy is so high, and they are all masters of life magic energy, they will definitely find a way slowly. ”

"Hehe, Sister Man. You may not know that Mr. Lin Hurricane also told me a few days ago, and he guessed that it might involve an extremely high-level magic energy application that is higher than our existing magic energy system, and may even be higher than the blood elf race's innate life magic energy, which is very difficult. ”

Lin Yatou smiled bitterly and said.

……

"Then there is hope, can't the barbarians also open it? Why can't we open it if they can open it? Hmph, sooner or later we'll be able to drive it too! You don't believe it, we bet well, whoever loses goes outside and shouts that I'm a puppy. ”

Sister Man immediately said unconvinced.

"I said, girl Lin. This is not like the genius Lin Han who I know, who is always full of confidence and wisdom. ”

Immediately, she looked at Lin Han playfully, but said leisurely.

"Hehe, Sister Man, you are the one I have always known, that Huang Hongman who doesn't know why he always makes himself so happy every day and is full of hope in your eyes - no wonder His Highness likes you so much."

"You know, all the blood elf girls are big beauties...... But he doesn't even like all the girls of his clan, but he only loves you. Even for you. He almost broke up with his father, but fortunately everything was finally settled now. ”

Lin Han laughed softly.

……

Huang Hongman blushed suddenly, and there was a hint of pride and pride on her not too beautiful but delicate and lovely face.

She was about to say something. saw that the smile on Lin Han's face had already disappeared.

"That's an artifact they have given to them by the barbarian gods...... While that thing may have been a product of a higher level of energy science, how many years would we have to develop based on our lost civilization? Maybe the home planet can't be studied. ”

Lin Han said and spoke, but sighed deeply.

"Okay, okay. Lin girl, sister, no matter what you think or think. But suddenly I thought. It's good that you can show weakness in my heart in front of me. After all...... Hey, I know, you're tired......."

Huang Hongman suddenly sighed, and she said in a low voice.

……

Immediately, she seemed to perk up again.

"I won't tell you this, don't think so much, I think, there is always hope for anything, there is no endless road! My Chinese ancestors will also bless us. She shook her fist.

"I suddenly thought that if that bastard kingdom forced us like this, we would simply go to Solar Island - when they were forced to fight the barbarians to the death, they would know that they would regret it!"

She suddenly said happily.

Lin Han was stunned, but his expression was slightly excited.

Oh, yes...... How can I be weak......

She thought deeply, but she also put on a happy look.

……

"How's that going to work?"

She smiled and looked at Huang Hongman: "Solar Island is only so big, and it is very difficult to feed less than 100,000 blood elves, plus our millions...... Sister Man, do you want the island to be crowded? ”

"Moreover, my Chinese people have always been self-reliant, but they have never been in the habit of living in other ethnic groups."

She said softly, but there was a look of pride in her eyes.

"It's you...... Sister Man, you haven't married yet, so you really think of yourself as a blood elf? Even if you marry a chicken, you don't have to be so impatient, right? ”

In the end, she already joked to Huang Hongman with a smile.

"I didn't--dead girl, you're going to die, I want you to look good!" Huang Hongman's face turned red suddenly, and he already pounced on Lin Han with his teeth and claws.

……

The crisp frolic sound sounded again, and even the blood elf beside them, who seemed to be a guard, looked at them, but there was a slight smile on the corner of their mouth.

On the mountain road, even the warriors of all ethnic groups in the team seemed to hear their laughter, and the corners of their faces and mouths also had a slight smile. The warriors glanced more or less in the direction of the carriage, and the gaze in their eyes varied from love to respect or admiration.

In an instant, the laughter like silver bells seemed to make this barren mountain road seem vivid.

Finally, in the distance, a Devil's Wildebeest Horseman, who seemed to be in charge of the front guard, was already galloping towards the team on the mountain path.

"Everyone, work hard, we're almost out of the mountain pass."

He shouted.

The team was already full of joy when they heard this, but they accelerated their pace. (To be continued......)
