Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Assassin (Part II)
Jiang Wu saw that Princess Loulan suddenly lowered her head, it was a good time to sneak attack, he immediately pulled out some green sword, the sword light flashed, and in the blink of an eye, it pointed to Princess Loulan's chest.
"You ......" Princess Loulan was stunned, but she didn't expect Jiang Wu to make a move at this time.
"Don't move!" Jiang Wu shouted, he put the sword next to Princess Loulan, and then pushed the princess down with a strong push with one hand, and then put the sword aside and pressed the princess with his body.
Princess Loulan exclaimed, "What are you doing......"
Jiang Wu ignored her, but tore off a strip of cloth from the princess's white dress, and the princess was even more panicked: "Don't be so anxious, sooner or later it's all your ......"
Before she could finish speaking, she found that Jiang Wu tied her hands with strips of cloth, and then picked them up.
"Follow me!" Jiang Wu placed the blue sword next to Princess Loulan's jade neck and ordered her to walk outside the hall.
"You ......" Princess Loulan was angry in her heart and reprimanded: "You are really a hopeless fool!"
"Less nonsense!" Jiang Wu said: "Only by taking you as a hostage can I rescue my brother and them!"
Jiang Wu escorted Princess Loulan out of this side hall, and the female guards outside the hall suddenly rushed forward in shock: "Princess, why are you ......?"
"All retreat!" Jiang Wu shouted.
"You all stand out!" Princess Loulan sighed.
All the guards retreated to both sides, making way for Jiang Wu and Princess Loulan to walk out of this courtyard. However, these guards didn't dare to leave, so they followed behind Jiang Wu and kept a distance.
The palace was so big, Jiang Wu had no clue, he could only ask Princess Loulan, "Where are they, my brother?"
"At this time, they should be in the Welcome Pavilion. Princess Loulan said, "Go to the right." ”
Princess Loulan guided Jiang Chen through the palace, and the palace maids and guards who met them flashed away one after another, all of them with shocked expressions, completely unaware of what was going on. And those guards, who followed behind Jiang Wu, did not dare to act without permission.
From a distance, it seems that Jiang Chen and Princess Loulan are "leading" a large group of palace guards and walking towards the Welcome Pavilion.
There are indeed many guards outside the welcome pavilion, and there is even no shortage of old men with white hair, who are Taoist masters at a glance.
"Get out of the way!" Jiang Wu gently shook the green sword in his hand, cutting off several green silks of Princess Loulan.
The old man glanced at Jiang Wu, snorted coldly, waved his hand, and motioned to the guards to let Jiang Wu in.
Jiang Wu held Princess Loulan hostage and entered the main hall of the Welcome Pavilion. As soon as he entered, he heard a familiar sound of laughter.
"Brother, you are really here!" Jiang Wu was overjoyed, he found that Jiang Chen, Chen Ying, Han Banxian and others were all here, laughing and talking with some people from Loulan Kingdom, and there didn't seem to be any assassination.
"Put down your sword quickly!" Jiang Chen smiled: "We are talking about you, the Taoist friend of Loulan Kingdom said that as long as you stay and be a colt, you can let a few of us leave Loulan safely." ”
Jiang Wu's heart was relieved when he heard this, he put away his sword, and said with righteousness: "Okay! As long as you let you go, don't say anything about horses, even if you are a cow and a horse, I am willing!"
Jiang Chen laughed, and whispered beside Jiang Wu: "This is different! Cows and horses are ridden by others, but horses are ridden...... Brother, you have a very deep routine, this trick wants to capture the old people, and you actually obeyed the eldest princess, who is the most willful and even has a headache for the monarch of Loulan, to the death, brother really underestimates you!"
"What kind of routine?" Jiang Wu was confused: "Aren't you going to assassinate, how can you talk and laugh with the Taoist of Loulan Kingdom here?"
Before Jiang Chen could answer, a middle-aged man in a purple gold robe beckoned to Princess Loulan and ordered, "Yu'er, sit here." ”
"Yes, Daddy!" Princess Loulan agreed, and sat behind the middle-aged man.
"Dad?" Jiang Wu was shocked and blurted out.
"You shouted so quickly, brother, you are too anxious!" Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"No, that," Jiang Wu said, "She is the princess of Loulan, he is her father, could it be that he is the monarch of Loulan?"
"It's the widow!" the middle-aged man said with a smile, "It's just that today's widow is not entertaining the generals of the Great Liang Kingdom as the monarch, but as a cultivator, meeting with all the Taoist friends from the Great Liang." ”
Jiang Wu was embarrassed, he bowed his hand, and said: "See Your Majesty!
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said with a smile: "Hehe, there is no need to be polite! The widow's surname is Tuoba, and there is a Taoist master who cultivates, according to the etiquette of a cultivator, you call the widow a Tuoba senior." ”
"Yes!" Jiang Wu said: "This matter was caused by the juniors, and I also asked the seniors to release the brothers and others, what is the punishment, the juniors are willing to bear it!"
"Punishment?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Although the little girl Yu'er is a little rude and willful, she is also beautiful and obedient to women's morals, so it doesn't matter what kind of punishment it is for you to marry her to be my Loulan country's concubine!"
The Daoists laughed, and Jiang Wu's face was flushed: "The seniors are laughing, the juniors are just an unknown junior on the rivers and lakes, how can they be qualified to marry Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
The middle-aged man said: "There is no way, you took off the veil of the little girl, and you also stepped into the little girl's bedroom, according to the customs of my Loulan country, the little girl can only marry you; if you don't marry, the widow can only punish you to death! Will you marry or not?"
"Marry!" Jiang Wu replied without hesitation. At this time, he still said that he would not marry, and his head must have been caught by the door, and more than once.
Princess Loulan blushed and lowered her head, but it was obvious that she was very satisfied with Jiang Wu's answer.
Everyone was happy, Jiang Wu was still confused, why did he agree to be Loulan in a daze, why did Jiang Chen and others appear here to talk and laugh with Loulan Guojun?
"Brother, what's going on?" Jiang Wu secretly asked Jiang Chen, "Didn't you want to assassinate the monarch of Loulan, how did it become like this?"
Jiang Chen whispered: "Things have changed, and this matter may not need to be solved without fighting." Moreover, the monarch of Loulan seems to have the same idea. ”
"Then how did you enter the palace?" Jiang Wu asked again.
"I was personally invited by the monarch of Loulan to come to the door. Jiang Chen said: "After you left, I felt strange why they asked you to deliver the cloth by name." Later, I asked Senior Han to check the pair of scimitars dropped by the female assassin you let go, and it turned out that some Loulan people recognized them as the royal meniscus, which made me guess the approximate identity of the female assassin. ”
"At this time, the monarch of Loulan actually led a group of Taoist masters to visit in person, obviously knowing our identity. He did not send a Taoist master to arrest us and others, but personally met with him and proposed to marry, it is obvious that the monarch of Loulan wants to make peace. ”
"Heqin?" Jiang Wu was stunned.
Jiang Chen nodded: "That's right! It's just to get married and discuss state affairs! Otherwise, you think you can be so smooth as a colt!" )
