Chapter Forty-Eight: Double Agent Pangolin

It was night, cloudless, and starry.

The bright moonlight poured through the windows into the emperor's dormitory like flowing water, slightly dispelling the oppression in the air.

Xu Lanqing stood in front of the bed, staring at the emperor sleeping on the bed, the bright yellow quilt covered the emperor, revealing only a sickly pale old face.

At the time of his arrival, the seriously ill emperor was still discussing matters with the prime minister and the minister of military aircraft.

Coughing twice as soon as you say a word, it takes two or three times longer than usual to decide something that is easy to decide.

He waited quietly outside, but when he went in after the ministers had gone, the Emperor was too tired to sleep.

After staying inside for a while, he left the palace with the imperial doctor who was warming the emperor's body.

"Old Sun, how is it? Can my father's illness be cured? Xu Lanqing asked the imperial doctor next to him.

The imperial physician known as Sun Lao is an old woman with crane hair and a childish face, and her full name is Sun Yuhuan.

She is not only the highest healing soul master in the palace, but also the chief alchemist of the royal family.

It was Xu Lanqing who delivered her back then.

"As long as you meditate and cultivate, avoid emotional agitation, cooperate with drugs, and warm up your body every day, it will be no problem for more than ten years." Sun Yuhuan said kindly.

"Can't it be cured?" Xu Lanqing pursed his lips.

"Difficult."

Sun Yuhuan shook his head and sighed: "With Your Majesty's situation, ordinary medicine has little effect and can only be used for relief. ”

Xu Lanqing pondered for a while: "What if there are heavenly treasures or even immortal herbs?" Can it be cured? ”

"You can try it."

Sun Yuhuan nodded, but shook his head the next moment: "It's just that the palace has stored it, and all the heavenly and earthly treasures that can be useful to Your Majesty have been used, so that Your Majesty can be rescued from endangerment."

How can there be extra treasures, even if you want to find them, it depends on luck and time. ”

"I see."

Xu Lanqing turned his head and saw the Snow Emperor waiting in the garden, and he said to Sun Yuhuan:

"The matter of the father, the trouble is for the old grandson, and the younger generation will retire first."

"No matter what's the trouble, it's all old and rotten, go ahead." Sun Yuhuan waved his hand.

Xu Lan walked over with the Snow Emperor.

The night is quiet, the flowers are clustered, and the Snow Emperor, bathed in the cold and stunning moonlight, is like a fairy who has come out of a painting, and the gorgeous flowers around her have lost their color.

"It's been a long time." Xu Lanqing said with a smile.

The Snow Emperor shook his head, and his azure eyes were calm.

"You are not in a hurry, the Ice Emperor and they are probably already in a hurry, so it is better to go back and release them quickly, lest they vent their anger on the undead plane." Xu Lanqing said with a smile.

The Snow Emperor bowed, and she also looked a little like the Ice Emperor.

After a while, Xu Lanqing arrived at the palace where he lived.

Waving to the two guards guarding outside, he let the Snow Emperor go in first.

The guard glanced at the Snow Emperor, and then immediately lowered his head, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, just do your own thing.

Looking at the back of the Snow Emperor, he said to the guards, "Which of you will make a storage ring?" ”

"Subordinates will." The guard on the left answered.

"Okay, come on, do me a favor."

Xu Lanqing smiled and said to the two: "As for you, go and ask the chef to cook something delicious and make more." ”

"Yes." The two guards arched.

Suddenly, Xu Lanqing thought of something: "By the way, don't do bears and scorpions." ”

In the hall, the corners of the Snow Emperor's mouth twitched, and his calm heart fluctuated slightly.

Looking at Xu Lanqing who walked in, she couldn't help but ask, "Have you eaten those before?" ”

Xu Lanqing was stunned for a moment, and said categorically: "No, absolutely not, I'm not afraid that they will do it blindly and spoil your mood." ”

Then he immediately said, "Okay, I'll let them out now." ”

The dark eyes quickly turned gray, and the bright hall was mixed with a cold and sacred aura, and Xu Lanqing's index finger was sketching in the air.

Xue Di looked at this scene curiously, it was the first time she had seen Xu Lanqing use this ability.

Not much.

After the sketch was completed, Xu Lanqing changed back to his original state, and a six-pointed star magic circle appeared in front of him, and in the flickering light, the figures of the Ice Emperor and Xiaobai appeared.

As soon as the Ice Emperor saw a flower, he found himself back in the real world.

She saw Xu Lanqing at first sight, and the anger in her heart couldn't stop surging up, her willow eyebrows were upside down, and she drank coquettishly:

"Xu Lanqing!

Why did the Snow Emperor disappear suddenly, where did you get her, if you don't give me an explanation today, I ......"

As he spoke, Teng Teng stepped forward and grabbed Xu Lanqing's collar, and a fragrant fragrance came to his nose.

But the next moment, before Xu Lanqing could speak, she sensed something and turned her head to look behind her.

"Snow Girl!"

The Ice Emperor looked at the Snow Emperor with surprise in his eyes, then shook off Xu Lanqing, turned around and threw himself into the Snow Emperor's arms, buried his head in the Snow Emperor's chest, and the two delicate bodies were attached together.

Xu Lanqing looked at it with envy.

Xiaobai also shouted "Mom" and pounced, but before he could get close, he was slapped away by the Ice Emperor.

can only stand by with an aggrieved face.

The Ice Emperor's voice was full of concern:

"Snow Maiden, how did you get out? I was worried about you when I suddenly disappeared before, let me see, are there any injuries or something?

……”

"Okay, I'm fine." The Snow Emperor pushed the Ice Emperor away, with a helpless smile on his face: "You, your temper is still so hot and impatient." ”

Then, she told everything she knew.

Hearing this, the Ice Emperor pursed his lips and said to Xu Lanqing, "Thank you." ”

"So you can still say those two words?" Xu Lanqing said with a smile.

"Hmph."

The Ice Emperor turned his head and faced him with a white side face, indicating that he was too lazy to pay attention.

At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside.

"Your Highness, the dishes are ready." The voice of the guard followed.

"Well, put it on the table."

"Yes."

Although the guards were a little surprised by the extra two, they still did their own thing.

The empty table was filled with dishes of color and flavor, leaving only the center spot, and there should still be no main course.

Xiaobai on the side couldn't help but leave saliva.

The guards were followed by an emaciated cook with a steaming pot of chicken soup in his hands.

The chef smiled and put the chicken soup in the center of the table and said, "This dish is ready, Your Highness hurry up and eat it while it's hot." ”

Xu Lanqing was just about to nod when a crisp voice suddenly sounded.

"Wait!"

The Ice Emperor glanced at the chicken soup, turned to stare at the chef, and said coldly, "This chicken soup has been poisoned. ”

To put such an inferior poison in front of her is simply a naked provocation and insult.

"Your Excellency, you're kidding." There was no trace of panic on the chef's face, and he said with a smile: "Eat it while it's hot, I won't bother, let's go first." ”

With that, he turned to leave.

"You can't go." Xu Lanqing spoke.

The guards immediately stopped at the door, blocking the cook's way.

The chef turned around and swept around the crowd standing at the table looking at him with cold faces, the atmosphere was cold.

He smiled undiminishedly: "Your Highness, you don't also believe this lord's nonsense, do you?" ”

"I believe it, I believe it very much." Xu Lan said lightly.

The Ice Emperor bowed slightly, even if this guy had some conscience.

"Your Highness, why, why do you like to joke too." The chef continued to laugh.

Xu Lanqing put a bowl of chicken soup in front of him, and smiled faintly: "If you don't release poison, you can drink this bowl of chicken soup." ”

The chef glanced at the chicken soup, then at Xu Lanqing, and still smiled:

"Your Highness, this chicken soup is very precious, this is made with thousands of years of colorful brocade chicken, you should let the adults drink it first, how can I, a chef, drink it?"

"Seeing that you are so busy and so hard, what is a bowl of chicken soup? If you don't drink it. ”

A cold light flashed in Xu Lanqing's eyes: "It means that you are really poisoned." ”

"This, that's not right, who is going to frame me today?"

The chef's smile gradually reluctantly, he looked at everyone, and then pointed at the Ice Emperor and said, "It's this lord, you want to frame me." Okay, I'll drink, I'll drink. ”

He stepped forward, his hand holding the bowl trembled slightly, and put it to his mouth: "This soup is a beautiful thing." ”

With that, I finished the chicken soup in one gulp.

The chef patted his chest and said with a look of enjoyment: "It's not salty, it's not light, it tastes great." Your Highness, look, isn't this all right? Drink it, while it's hot.

Your Highness, you have to take the lead. When you drink it, everyone dares to drink it. Drink, why don't you drink? ”

Looking at everyone's indifferent expressions, his body shook a little, and suddenly, he rushed forward and slapped the table, and the chicken soup was shocked and spilled out of the pot.

His face was hideous, and he roared angrily: "His grandmother's, why don't you drink it?" Drink, drink! ”

As if he couldn't hold it anymore, he staggered and staggered back.

"Don't drink, don't drink, do you?"

The storage ring on his finger shone slightly, and a level 8 fixed soul guide cannonball of about one meter appeared in vain.

His soul power surged, and he said frantically: "Don't drink? If you don't drink I'll blow you up! ”

"You don't drink it, do you? You're afraid of death, aren't you? I tell you, don't drink it, don't drink it and don't want to leave alive! ”

Xu Lanqing stopped the guard's movements and looked at the chef with a calm expression.

There are Snow Emperor and Ice Emperor next to him, how can he be afraid?

The chef held his head high and looked at everyone with contempt: "Since you have seen it, then I will not act."

I am the right-hand man of the famous Three Princes, and the double senior agent of the Great Star Luo Empire.

Codename - Pangolin! ”

With that, he slammed the white chef's hat on top of his head to the ground.

"I arranged the previous assassination, and I also put the poison in this chicken soup.

But if I drink this chicken soup, I will definitely die, if you don't drink it, don't want to live! ”

He tilted his head, his voice was angry, and his eyes were full of fanaticism: "Lord Duke, Your Majesty, my mission is accomplished!" Hahahahaha! ”

Soul power poured into the eighth-level fixed soul guide cannonball, and a ferocious power was about to explode.

The Snow Emperor's eyes flashed beside Xu Lanqing, and the invisible coldness invaded the eighth-level Customized Soul Guide Cannonball, directly sealing the ice inside.

"Hahaha......"

The laughter stopped abruptly, and the pangolin looked at the unresponsive eighth-level soul guide cannonball, his face full of confusion.

Then, he looked at Xu Lanqing and gritted his teeth and said, "His grandmother's, play yin for me, right?" Come straight away! ”

He was holding the cannonball and was about to rush towards Xu Lanqing.

But he hadn't taken a few steps before he stopped, bright red blood slowly flowing out of his mouth, and the cannonball fell from his bosom to the ground.

His face was flushed, his face full of pain and unwillingness, and he pressed his palm on his stomach.

"Bang~"

He fell to his knees, drops of blood falling to the ground, and eventually collapsed on the cold floor, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Xu Lanqing pursed his lips: "Bad luck, it also stained my floor." ”

Then he said to the guard: "You, go and talk to my third brother." ”

"Yes!"

The guard glanced at the corpse on the ground and left in disbelief.
