Outside the royal palace near Tamu City, the bearded man had been hiding in the snow for a long time, but he never saw Nalan Xiaoxue. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The sky has dawned, the 798 years of the Guangming calendar have become history, the new year and the new day have arrived, the direction of the royal palace is peaceful, and the guards of the Northern Frontier Army outside the palace in the distance are changing guards in an orderly manner. All this is enough to prove that Nalan Xiaoxue has not yet started her assassination operation.

Although he spent the night in the snow and ice, the bearded man was in good spirits. After a night of observation, he found that the palace was so tightly guarded that he didn't even have a chance to get close. This means that even if Nalan Xiaoxue starts an assassination operation, the only thing he can do is to create chaos on the periphery and divert the attention of the defenders!

No news is good news!The bearded man would rather hope that Nalan Xiaoxue would never appear, because no one could assassinate a member of the royal family in such a well-defended royal palace. Even if they succeed, there is no hope of escape. Now, he would rather His Highness Ye Yuan's inference be wrong!

The bearded man was thinking about it when a group of people came from a distance from Tamu City, and the destination was the snow-covered royal palace. As this group approached. The bearded man's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and he had already recognized the identity of the person who came, it was Lord Monton.

At this moment, Monton's expression looked old and tired, and it seemed that the many calamities that had passed in the past seven or nine or eight years had not given him much hope for the future - Tamu Castle, which was so ruined that it lost its defense, a powerful enemy like a ghost on the ice field, the inexplicable assassination of the Lord of Chiba, The centrifugation and gloom of the Ice Plains Army, as well as the threat of death that has never been eradicated, and the torment of internal and external difficulties, made his mood as heavy as a plumb sink, and when the soldiers of the Northern Frontier Army spent the last night of 798 years, as the commander, he suffered a sleepless night of worry.

Monton's men and horses were getting closer and closer, and a team of people and horses came out from the direction of the palace to greet him, and the bearded man hesitated to immediately step forward to ask for help! After all, if he wanted to enter the royal palace to find out the news, this was his best chance. However, the bearded man was also unsure of Monton's position on the matter. Although Monton let the Icefield Legion and Nalan Xiaoxue leave safely, it does not mean that he will allow the Lord of Chiba to suffer damage again. Once Meng Dun refuses to keep secrets, if Nalan Xiaoxue is in the palace, her situation will be even more dangerous!

However, if he didn't tell his Royal Highness Ye Yuan and Xiao Lei's speculation frankly, with Lord Mengton's alertness, he would never be able to help him, and the best result would be to let himself go!

Just as the bearded man was thinking about it, tangled to the point that it was difficult to distinguish, a dangerous warning suddenly rose from his heart, the snow burst open, and the beard burst out, and he rolled and crawled to dodge a series of attacks, and in his hiding place, several arrows almost completely sank into the snow, leaving only the tail feathers trembling.

"Lord Monton, it's me!" the bearded man hurriedly exclaimed.

Monton's eyes froze, he recognized the identity of the bearded man, and immediately raised his hand to stop the further attack, and gestured to the palace guards who came to greet him, indicating that it was okay.

The guards stationed outside the palace were all elites from the northern frontier, and they had already been informed that Lord Monton would come to meet the lord of Chiba. Although they were very curious about who the general who came out of the snow and was dressed in the uniform of a northern frontier general, since they didn't even pursue Lord Monton, they didn't ask any more questions, so as not to get into trouble. After all, the atmosphere in Tamu City and the palace has been very strange these days, and those guards from the royal family in the palace are also like thieves.

"Bearded, why are you here?" asked Monton as he rode over to Bearded and asked in a cold voice.

The bearded man rubbed his stiff face, and said with a smile: "My lord, can you take a step to speak?"

Monton nodded, and walked to the side with the bearded man.

"If you have anything to say, hurry up!" Monton urged as he glanced in the direction of the palace. Seeing the mysterious appearance of the bearded god, his heart tightened slightly, could it be that His Royal Highness Ye Yuan was unwilling to give up, taking advantage of the turbulent undercurrent of Tamu City, and turned back to win the support of the northern frontier? Meng Dun sighed in his heart, now that the war in the northwest had made him anxious, he really didn't want to make any more extraneous branches and add more variables.

"My lord, my return this time has nothing to do with His Royal Highness Ye Yuan, I want to find Miss Nalan Xiaoxue!" The bearded man also knew that if this large group of people stayed for too long, he was afraid that it would arouse the suspicion of the palace, so he could only bite the bullet and hurry up.

Monton looked at the bearded man's uneasy expression, and he couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart: "You mean the little snow girl is here?" Monton's head, which had not rested well all night, became more and more painful, and his voice couldn't help but become agitated.

The bearded man shook his head and said, "I'm not sure yet, it's just speculation!"

The bearded man came to Mengton's side, and talked about Xiao Lei and His Royal Highness Ye Yuan's previous discussions and speculations in detail, Mengton's face also became solemn, he looked at the beard's blue and purple appearance, and couldn't help but say: "Did you hide here all night? Why don't you go directly to the camp to find me?"

As soon as the Ice Plains Army helped the Northern Frontier Army pacify Tamu City, they were forced to brave the snow and enter the dangerous ice field, what is the difference between this practice and the prostitutes who have just visited the kiln and turned their faces and refused to admit their accounts? It is strange that the other party can trust himself!

However, now is not the time to put up a fight, and if what the bearded man said is true, the consequences will be unimaginable! This means that all his previous efforts to resolve his grudges will be in vain!

Monton pondered for a moment before he said, "Your reasoning is very reasonable! But things may not be as bad as you think!"

The bearded man perked up: "What do you think?"

Monton said: "It's very simple, why do you think that Nalan Xiaoxue will come here to die?"

"It's not death, it's assassination!" the bearded man immediately corrected.

"What's the difference?" Monton gave the other a disdainful look.

The bearded man was speechless, in fact, he also thought that if Nalan Xiaoxue really entered the palace to assassinate the lord of Chiba, there would indeed be no difference between sending him to death.

Meng Dun pondered: "Although I don't have much contact with Little Snow Girl, judging from her words and deeds, she is definitely worthy of the evaluation of Xiuwai Huizhong! How can such a girl know that she will die and kill herself?"

The bearded man disagreed: "My lord, you don't understand, women are irrational many times! If it is related to Ah Heng's safety, I believe that Nalan Xiaoxue will not care about her own safety!"

Monton nodded, but shook his head again: "You're right! With their current grudge, as long as possible, Xiaoxue Girl will definitely not let go of the Chiba County Lord, which is the same reason that the Chiba County Lord put the Little Snow Girl to death." They can do anything for the sake of the people they cherish. But—"

Meng Dun's words changed: "She will never use such a simple and crude method! Unlike our straightforward soldiers, Nalan Xiaoxue is by no means as weak as she looks on the outside, she is not only a true nobleman of the God-given Republic, but also the future head of the Gu clan." Such a person may be kind, but he will not be naïve. I think she will definitely come, but it will never be now!"

The bearded man blinked, shook his blue lips, and suddenly pulled his beard and said in pain: "My lord, do I look stupid now?"

Monton sneered: "It's not stupid, it's very stupid." But what you're doing isn't all meaningless, at least make it clear to me that the situation doesn't get worse! And, as long as you want, keep hiding here for three or five days, and if you're lucky enough not to freeze to death, you'll definitely wait for her. ”

The bearded man screamed, and said without tears: "My lord, please don't say it again!" He suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "No, I have suffered such a big crime, I have to take a look in the palace if I say anything, what if the little snow girl is really blinded by hatred and does something stupid?"

Meng Dun sneered: "After talking about it for a long time, it turns out that you still want to enter the palace with me!"

The bearded man immediately said with a hippie smile: "My lord is wise, and he really knows everything!"

Monton snorted coldly, turned his head and left, and the bearded man hurriedly followed.

Monton suddenly said, "Bearded, don't blame me for not reminding you. If you enter the palace this time, you may die!"

The bearded man was stunned when he heard this, but he was relieved, just thinking that Monton was joking!

After all, it was he who let go of Nalan Xiaoxue and the Ice Plains Legion, and the Lord of Chiba would not embarrass his subordinates even if he blamed him, after all, she was the future mistress of Northern Xinjiang, and after all, she wanted to win the hearts of the people of Northern Xinjiang!

Monton raised his eyes to look at the royal palace looming in the middle of the mountain, thinking about the grievances and entanglements between several young people, a sense of powerlessness arose, and he couldn't help but sigh softly:

The world will be chaotic, and evil will be born!
