"Is this serious?"

"It's true!"

In the imperial study, the emperor's dragon face seemed to be shrouded in a layer of clouds, and he gently put down an ancient book he was holding in his hand.

These Ulans are a real headache, and no matter how many times they have to teach a lesson, they will think about invading the imperial land.

It seems that this time we must give them some cruelty, completely smash these barbarians, and erase them from the world forever.

Emperor Donghuang Yue, who had also participated in the suppression of the Ulan rebels when he was young, knew that he had to deal with the barbarians with more brutal means than they did.

Violence against violence, the barbarians fear the more savage, and facing their leader is to torture them with the most cruel punishment. Nail them to death with wooden oxen, Ling Chi and car cracks, make them suffer, make them afraid, and make them regret being born in this world!

Therefore, the Ulan people also hate Donghuangyue very much, and they can't wait to eat him alive.

"In other words, something has happened to the King of Ulan?" Donghuang Yue inadvertently showed a strange smile, but Prince Su didn't notice it, "So, who is the leader of the Ulan rebel party?"

"It's Hülegü. Behind the prince, Zuo Qingyun immediately replied.

"Hulegu?" Donghuang Yue's face twisted together for another moment, "Very good, I still respect him." ”

The emperor pressed his hand on the chair, and the green tendons on the back of his hand suddenly bulged like an earthworm, but his voice was unexpectedly calm, "I will catch him myself, and then cut him with a thousand knives." ”

This calm is even more frightening.

Listening to his father's words, the crown prince felt a chill all over his body, as if it was not his father standing in front of him, but a devil who killed people without blinking, making him unconsciously retreat.

"Father......?"

Donghuang Yue squinted at the crown prince at this time, and said in an absolute commanding tone: "Immediately send someone to let the two kings of Lunfan County and Rizhao County personally send troops to help, and I want to drive the expedition in person." ”

Prince Su's face suddenly turned pale as paper, and he hurriedly said: "This matter must not be allowed, my father should not leave Beijing easily to go to battle!"

However, Donghuang Yue was determined to do so, and he said with extreme confidence: "It's just a group of Ulan Yidi, I was able to defeat them twenty years ago, and it will be the same twenty years later!"

"Father and Emperor think twice, it's the same if you leave these to General Han and General Song!"

When the prince was about to continue going down, Donghuangyue suddenly took the case, shaking the pen and inkstone on the table and almost falling to the ground.

The anger on his face became heavier and heavier, and what was disturbing was that the more angry he was, the more calm and frightening the tone of the East Emperor's voice became.

"You know what kind of person I am. Donghuang Yue gently patted the crown prince's shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Whoever I want to die, he must die, and he must die more ugly than anyone else." ”

The prince was so frightened that he even forgot how to reply, and the eunuchs who served the left and right all lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at the Eastern Emperor's more and more pressing gaze.

Zuo Qingyun swallowed his saliva, he remembered the rumor that had spread among the Ulan people a long time ago: the emperor's eldest prince, Dong Huangyu, was actually poisoned by the emperor.

He didn't believe it before, but now that he thinks about it, this terrible emperor might really be able to do anything. Even if it is his own son, he can do anything if it threatens his rule.

That's why the little prince hated Donghuangyue so much during his lifetime. I am afraid that in the past twenty years, this tyrant has sent many assassins, and finally had to send the little prince to the side of the fortress, which also allowed him to barely save his life for nearly twenty years.

So, who came up with the idea of this disguised exile, but in fact to save his life?

Zuo Qingyun's mind inexplicably appeared the shadow of an Ulan man -- it was Hülegü! It was he who proposed to the emperor to send Donghuang Yin to Ulan County.

But why did he do it?

The emperor stepped out of the threshold of the imperial study and walked away without looking back.

"How much I wish I could ...... There are no conspiracy and strife in this world. After a long time, the crown prince choked up and said, "The three imperial brothers are gone...... Why can't we coexist with the Ulans, ronins, and Lunbo people, why is there no trust between people, and why?"

Zuo Qingyun smiled bitterly, because from the very beginning, life is a game, a fatal game. Between kings and kings, between conspirators and conspirators, if you retreat, you lose, and if you lose, you may have to pay the price of death......

It's all about survival, and everyone is driven by the hunting blade of death. Even the Emperor had to guard against usurpers and invaders in fear every day, because the higher you climb, the more people will want you to fall.

Therefore, in order to survive, man can become brutal, he can become greedy, and even lose all humanity.

"Let's go, Your Highness. Zuo Qingyun stood up mechanically, his expression gloomy, "At least in this way, we saved those people near the Great Wall...... If the emperor says it, it will be no problem to deal with the enemy. ”

"No, we didn't save those people. "There will be more and more hatred, war ...... It never ends. ”

"This meat-filled white bread tastes good. In the Meditation Pavilion, the knights of Valantin ate steamed buns with their hands while drinking tea, "Can you get me a fork?"

Among the Westerners present, some of them were fiddling with how to use chopsticks, some were devout guild believers, and they were busy praying before meals, and some even had some difficulty eating.

"Fuck, why is this white bread so hot!"

"It's a meat bun, idiot Valantine, it's stupid to catch it with your hands when it's so hot. Hassan craned his neck and raised his middle finger at the hot knight, who almost wanted to throw his fist into a fight.

The deacons of Dali Temple who were on duty couldn't help but feel funny when they saw it, and they looked at each other, and they all held back their strength before they laughed.

"You camel ride in the desert, or Sals ostrich ridden by camels, be careful that I call you to be in a different place!"

Unexpectedly, the development of things was a little uncontrollable, and a rough-looking, unshaven Valantian directly picked up the plate and was ready to smash it!

"Oops!" the deacon and the father-in-law said in unison, their faces changed, and just as they were about to stop it, the plate had already come out of their hands, and they flew out with a few lotus paste buns!

Lillet silently covered her forehead, only to say how she brought out such a stupid person.

On the other side, Lu Xianfeng's brows also frowned, and he said in his heart that these Yidi really don't know what to do.

Then the most unlucky one should be the long-necked Hassan, the plate is like a pull-back marker, and it is a slam blow to the brain!

"Aha. Hassan stuck out his tongue and saw that his head was about to bloom, but this guy was quick-eyed, kicked his front legs, and tilted his chair back slightly.

The plate seemed to be frozen in an instant, and stopped in front of his eyes, only to see Hassan show his signature evil smile, he held the plate firmly between his fingers, and the three lotus paste buns also fell neatly on the plate.

The deacons and father-in-law breathed a sigh of relief, while the knights of Valantine were greatly regretted.

Only Lillett and Lu Shifeng were vigilant, neither of them had seen that this Salsian was so hidden.

"Ouch, fortunately, I was an acrobatic artist in the court of the Sultan (meaning monarch) when I was a child, otherwise my life would be in danger!"

Hassan threw the plate directly and landed smoothly on the table, and the bun on it only shook slightly, but it still stayed in its original position.

No wonder he was able to steal the money bags from everyone's waists without a word, Lillet thought to himself, what a dangerous guy, even if he was a clown, he couldn't be underestimated.

"You're lucky this time, I swear by the glory of the Valantians, and next time, I'll keep the hammer or the sword I'll throw out!" said the bearded knight indignantly.

"Hehe, I'm really looking forward to it. Hassan disapprovingly took the teacup and drank it down, "Well, it's as bitter as coffee......

The knights didn't take advantage of it, and they were all sullen. Every Valantine here hates the Sals.

Moreover, the two countries are often at war in peacetime. From religious jihad to village fights, the people of the two countries had already formed a bond before this, and now it is normal for water and fire to be incompatible when they meet at the dinner table.

"Damn it, shouldn't there be some music to lighten up the atmosphere at this time?" the bearded knight stabbed his chopsticks into his bun as a fork.

Lu Shifeng's brows furrowed even more, but he still tried his best to restrain himself and glanced at his subordinates, who reluctantly clapped their hands and summoned the singers and dancing girls.

"Mr. Lu. Lillette raised her teacup at this time, and said politely, like every normal Western nobleman, "Although this is not wine, I will first toast you for the sake of the friendship between our nobles." ”

"You're so polite. Lu Xianfeng replied, "Then my cup is for the friendship between the two countries." ”

"Good. Lillette quickly changed his words and asked in a low voice, "Then why is there an extra clown from the desert in the friendly exchanges between our two countries?"

Lu Xianfeng was not busy answering, only raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and asked rhetorically, "What is the main purpose of your coming here?"

"Arrest criminals. Lilllet didn't think twice.

"That's it. Lu Xianfeng lifted the teapot and filled Lillet's cup himself, "The Salasan claimed that his caravan had been robbed by a group of horsemen in Ulan County, and that among those horsemen was a witch. ”

"Huh, this guy can be robbed by a witch?" said Lilllet, thinking that he had been robbed of his money by this guy, and maybe this was retribution.

After thinking about it, it turned out that the witch did not cross the sea from Vientiane or Moxie, but walked to the northern foot of the most dangerous plateau, and absconded from the grasslands of the Buliu Gu and Ulan tribes.

No wonder I can't find out about this demon girl after chasing it for so long.

"Then let's discuss the opinion now," Lu Xianfeng folded his hands on the table and thought, "Maybe we have to go to Wulan County, maybe the prisoner has already colluded with the local ringing horse ......"

Before the remaining word "qi" could be spoken, the desktop suddenly shook, and the hot tea in the teacup overflowed all at once, interrupting all Lu Shifeng's thoughts.

"What's going on?!"

When he came back to his senses, he noticed a group of Varantins holding chopsticks and banging on the table or tea bowl, making rhythmic sounds.

"Your oriental music is like a requiem!"

"That's right, let's sing it and tell the Orientals what music is!"

A dozen Valantines, a dozen bards, they beat the dishes and chopsticks very tacitly, and they are more intelligent than those who have rehearsed beforehand.

One of the young men, with a loud voice, took the lead and led the singing:

"The dark curtain of the western sky,

The Valantin knight set out on his journey.

He had a sword, a shield,

His mission is the future of the gondolea.

Come, brethren!

Raise your sword,

Follow the valiant King of Knights,

Stepping on the Pegasus,

Defeat the evil Emperor of the Ancients!"

Then, everyone excitedly threw steamed buns and pastries at the singing boys, and one of the pancakes almost hit the father-in-law around.

The Varantins were happy, but the eunuchs and deacons were miserable, they couldn't understand what the guys were singing, and they kept chattering.

Even Hassan was amused at this moment, and laughed to the beat, "Go on, Varantin!"

The knights immediately chimed in:

"Yes, we are brave Varantinians!

In this life, I swear to follow justice,

Evil is our enemy.

Witches, wizards, demons,

To hell with all of them!

We attack against the cold wind,

We blow the trumpet of the stars,

Faith is our weapon,

No one can bring us down!"

The merry group just danced, turning the tea party into a carnival and using the Meditation Pavilion as a circus stage. The singers were disgraced, the deacons finally held down the hilt of their swords, and the fathers-in-law hid behind the pillars to protect themselves.

Lillette shrugged at Lu Shifeng, as if to say, "That's how they are."

Lu Xianfeng motioned to his subordinates to hold back, although his face was blue and white.

And it was at this moment that a sudden event interrupted the revelry of the Valantins. Outside the hall, a golden halberd of the Imperial Division suddenly opened the curtain and walked in anxiously.

The knights were stunned for a moment, only to hear him say loudly: "Lord Lu, we can't go to Ulan County!"

Lu Shifeng hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

The golden halberd replied with a frightened expression, "The Ulans...... The Emperor is about to gather a large army to stop them, and asks you to immediately notify the rest of the Shadow Sword Servants to go out with His Majesty to defeat the Ulan!"
