In the courtyard of the deep palace, the solemn and solemn architectural style is quiet and beautiful in the heavy snow.

Xu Yuan looked at the white sky and walked forward with the woman in red beside him.

She seemed to like the bright color of fiery red.

She didn't wear the loose red dress she used to have, but a rather tight-fitting fiery red suit.

Xu Yuan naturally glanced at the other party.

Losing the wide red robe, there was finally a slight upheaval of the moment.

Acting is such a thing that needs to be put into it with true feelings, and then ruthlessly pulled out, and then in, and out, and so on.

Therefore,

When Li Qingyan noticed his gaze and swept his cold eyes, Xu Yuan only smiled and asked out loud:

"After all this travel, are you going to ask me something?"

Li Qingyan paused, staring at Xu Yuan's red lips and opening slightly:

"Lou is always long her. Already out of town? ”

When Xu Yuan heard this, he immediately began to pretend to be confused:

"Huh? Haven't you already sealed the whole city with a formation, how can she get out? ”

Li Qingyan stared at Xu Yuan's flat eyes, as if he was looking at a fool:

"Xu Changtian, when you say this, do you think that this palace has no brains?"

"Nope."

Xu Yuan's face was serious: "Don't talk nonsense." ”

Big breasts have no brains, of course you have brains.

Li Qingyan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and said directly:

"This palace personally prefers that she didn't leave the city, after all, you haven't left, so if Lou Ji hasn't left the city yet, I hope you can contact her and leave two Yun Qi bullets sent to Zong Qingsheng and Uncle Mu in the North Closure City."

After listening to this, Xu Yuan was thoughtful and asked:

"And what if she's gone?"

Hearing this question,

The corners of Li Qingyan's lips were slightly hooked, and a pair of phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, staring straight at Xu Yuan:

"If she leaves, she will definitely offer to take you with her, but you are still here, so you can start thinking about how to explain to this palace why you want to stay in the city."

“.” Xu Yuan's expression was slightly strange.

He found that these royals were more difficult to fool than the other.

The person who asked him Xu Yuan to stay in the Beifeng City as a proton was you, Wu Yuan, and the person who stayed to explain now was also you, Wu Yuan.

Half an hour later,

Xu Yuan suddenly said with some amusement: "What are you suspecting?" ”

Li Qingyan smiled slightly, his eyes unchanged: "What do you say this palace is suspicious?" ”

"How do you know what you're suspecting?"

"What is this palace suspecting in your own heart?"

"Alright, alright."

Xu Yuan raised his hand to interrupt the spell: "You just suspect that I, Xu Changtian, stayed here to prepare for trouble in the Northern Closure City." ”

As he spoke, Xu Yuan paused and pointed to himself:

"Your Highness, do you think I'm capable of doing things in such a situation?"

"Huh?"

Li Qingyan took a lot of Xu Yuan up and down, and there was a touch of amusement on his beautiful face:

"This palace never believes in the so-called fame, only in what he sees with his own eyes."

"So what do you see?"

"Xu Changtian, after getting along for a month, this palace doesn't look like a gentleman at all."

"Can I beat you, me?"

“.” Li Qingyan.

Quiet for a moment,

The woman in red patted the snowflakes that fell on her shoulders:

"It seems that Lou Ji is indeed gone."

Xu Yuan didn't hide it anymore:

"She did leave, and she did say she would take me with her."

"Oh?"

Li Qingyan's beautiful eyes were a little puzzled: "Why are you suddenly willing to tell me this, is it because you have thought about how to explain it to this palace?" ”

Xu Yuan shook his head and said seriously:

"That's what my father meant."

“.”

Li Qingyan became a little helpless, as if he had already thought that Xu Yuan would explain like this.

Xu Yinhe.

Since she was a child, she has heard this name from Uncle Mu.

Childhood

Uncle Mu's evaluation of this Xu Gong is generally praise and admiration such as "one appearance through the ages" and "amazing strategy".

But as she grew up, this Duke Xu gradually changed from praise to angry scolding such as "thief of the country", "old immortal thing", and "miscellaneous who does not abide by the way of courtiers" in Uncle Mu's mouth.

Such a character is indeed quite suitable for taking out the blame.

And after Xu Yuan saw Li Qingyan's expression, he knew in his heart that the other party didn't believe it, sighed, and the lie came as soon as he opened his mouth:

"No, my princess, do you think I want to stay in this ruined city?"

While speaking, Xu Yuan pointed to the south of the city:

"The city gate over there has been blown up, once the barbarians attack the city and can defend it for a few days, we will know it in our hearts."

"But my father said that I need my son to stay in this northern closure city as a proton, so that you can rest assured, rest assured that our future actions in the Xiangguo Mansion will not endanger the interests of the imperial court."

Li Qingyan listened to these affectionate words, and his eyes showed a touch of thought:

"Didn't you say that you were a gentleman, and you would still care about this?"

Xu Yuan frowned, with a hint of anger in his eyes:

"Li Qingyan, I Xu Changtian really didn't do personnel before, but since I was a child, I can still handle the overall situation."

Li Qingyan looked at Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan also stared at her, his eyes sincere and enthusiastic.

Ban Yu,

Li Qingyan suddenly bent his eyes and smiled:

"It seems that Lou Ji has prepared a way out for you."

“.” Xu Yuan's expression froze.

Fuck, I want to pretend to force these women to tear down the stage, how can one be more ruthless than the other.

Stunned,

Li Qingyan slowly raised a jade hand, stroked Xu Yuan's face, chuckled at close range, and a pair of red eyes were as hot as fire:

"Regardless of whether there is a way out or not, if you dare to stay in this northern lockdown city in this situation, you are worthy of the men of this palace."

Speaking of which,

She patted Xu Yuan on the shoulder with her hand:

"This palace is very satisfied with you."

“.” Xu Yuan.

Retracting his hand, Li Qingyan continued to step forward and said:

"On the barbarian side, it is estimated that the siege will start in about two hours, and I will go to the city gate tower to sit in the town immediately."

Two hours

Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and while quickly following up, he frowned and asked:

"Lou Ji told me that the barbarian side is adjusting their deployment to prepare for the siege, and the siege will at least wait until tomorrow or even the day after tomorrow."

The heroic woman dressed in red raised her red pupils and glanced at the white sky:

"It is true that it will take until tomorrow to completely encircle the North Seal City, but that barbarian alien king will definitely not do such a stupid thing, he will not go further north if he expands the military formation to the East String Gate at most."

Xu Yuan immediately suddenly:

"Will the teacher be around?"

"Siege the teacher? Good vocabulary. ”

Li Qingyan's phoenix eyes narrowed: "But it's more because the king is too aware of the contradictions within our northern border army, as long as he puts his troops in the south, the sects in the city will inevitably have other thoughts." ”

Xu Yuan groaned slightly, his brows furrowed slightly:

"You mean the sect will want to escape?"

Saying that, Xu Yuan glanced at the heavy snow with strange eyes:

"Isn't this kind of weather leading the army to flee looking for death? And if the northern city is closed down, the 700,000 troops will really be alone. ”

Li Qingyan's voice was slightly cold:

"The army will not flee, but those high-level people will definitely want to escape with supplies, there are people among the barbarians who understand my Great Yan language, and when the time comes, the barbarians will definitely use this to disturb the hearts of the troops in the city, and without the leadership of these people, the time for the reorganization of the army below will become a gap period."

The more powerful the position, the more he spares his life.

It is not difficult for high-level cultivators to cross the northern mountain range, as long as they are not too unlucky to be blocked by the barbarian powerhouse, they can generally escape directly back to the territory of Great Yan.

Xu Yuan thought for a moment, and suddenly asked:

"But aren't you in a fight?"

Li Qingyan shook his head:

"Maintaining the operation of the Northern Lockdown Formation is a huge expense every day, if you bear the siege equipment, the expense will become even greater, once the fight starts, most of the source crystals will be deployed to the formation in the south of the city, and the formation in the north will naturally not be able to maintain such strength at that time."

After that, Li Qingyan smiled comfortingly at Xu Yuanyan:

"Don't worry, even if the city is broken, you will never die before this palace."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan's heart sank, and he suddenly had a not very good feeling:

"Princess, what do you mean?"

Li Qingyan didn't speak, and took out a pair of armor from the Sumeru ring:

"You try it to see if it fits."

“.”

Xu Yuan glanced at the armor of the Yulin Army's thousands of guards.

Although Da Yan's technique of engraving defensive formations on cloth clothes is still rare, the technique of engraving on armor is expensive, but it is quite mature.

Human life is not worth much in this extraordinary feudal dynasty, but martial arts cultivators are valuable, and the cycle of cultivating a combatable soldier starts at least five years, and the elite is even more spanned by ten years.

Therefore, most of the forces will not be stingy with life-saving things such as armor, and the regular army basically has standard armor.

From the soldiers at the grassroots level, to the lieutenants at the middle level, to the commanders at the top level, there are standard armor.

However, the armor that Li Qingyan gave him in front of him should be specially made, and his soul could sense some complicated and mysterious formations on it.

After a moment of silence, Xu Yuan stretched out his hand to take it and asked softly:

"I don't know what His Highness means"

Li Qingyan pursed his lips and smiled:

"From now on, you are the only personal guard of this palace."

The corners of Xu Yuan's mouth twitched:

"Unique?"

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked to a courtyard.

Li Qingyan pushed open the courtyard door and said casually:

"When the cultivation of this palace is low, you follow Uncle Mu's side, and when your cultivation is high, you naturally don't need to be guarded, so you are the first."

The small pond in the courtyard has frozen, and the pavilions and pavilions are covered with thick snow, but the stone path seems to be of a special material, and the snow disappears as soon as it hits the ground.

Walking on the stone road together, Xu Yuan smashed his mouth:

"As for doing so? In this situation, I don't need to hide my identity. ”

The personal guard is about the same as a personal bodyguard for 24 hours, about the same as not being able to go to the invitation of the third prince tonight, and about the same that it is almost impossible for him to do something after that.

Li Qingyan seemed to have guessed Xu Yuan's thoughts, and his eyes swept coldly:

"In the war, there are both a large city protection array and a military formation, and the side of the main palace is the safest place."

Xu Yuan didn't agree, and said:

"Now that the war has not started, there is no need to be in such a hurry."

Li Qingyandai's eyebrows furrowed slightly, but she immediately seemed to understand something, and turned her eyes to him:

"You and Li Yunqing had something in that pavilion before and didn't finish talking?"

“.” Xu Yuan.

This washboard princess seems to be a little too sharp, if this marriage contract is really concluded, it may not be easy to fool when going out after marriage.

Well, it's still the big ice lump that is the cutest.

She believes whatever he says.

I miss the first day of the big ice mound.

Xu Yuan was thinking about these messy things in his mind, and Li Qingyan suddenly said unexpectedly:

"In that case, you will come to the palace again tomorrow to be a personal guard."

“.” Xu Yuan's eyes were a little surprised.

This woman actually let him go?

Li Qingyan's beautiful face softened slightly in the wind and snow, and a pair of phoenix eyes met his gaze, and said slowly:

"If you want to go to a place like Goolan , this palace will not stop you before the wedding."

Xu Yuan subconsciously paused, looking at Li Qingyan's tall back, his eyes were stunned.

But soon,

He heard Li Qingyan's remaining words faintly:

"Although I don't know what you want to talk about with Li Yunqing, if it involves the matter of seizing the heir, I suggest that you don't get involved indiscriminately, this palace will not be the same as Li Yunqing."

Speaking of which,

She pushed open the door of her wing and walked straight in.

Xu Yuan stood in place, a little stunned.

Hiss.

What did this woman mean by her last words?

Then enter the room,

Xu Yuan looked around, locked the woman in red who was tying her hair in the room with a brief furnishing, and asked directly:

"Hey, what do you mean by that last word?"

Li Qingyan took out a hairpin from the Sumeru ring, gathered the long black straight hair that was scattered behind him, simply tied the head of the ball, and replied softly:

"Literally."

Xu Yuan walked over to Li Qingyan and sat down and asked:

"Don't support the crown prince, you are ready to support the second emperor."

Li Qingyan stared at Xu Yuan helplessly:

"Changtian, in your opinion, the royal family must stand with a prince to win the heir?"

Xu Yuan gasped, and then acted tentatively:

"You want me to be the prince."

"Stupid."

Li Qingyan tied her hair and stood up with a tall figure, the simple pill head made her whole person more heroic, and her eyes were slightly cold for a moment:

"The great flame suffers from external and internal troubles, and Shu Li suffers, whoever is willing to solve it, whoever can solve it, the palace will support whom."

“.”

Xu Yuan put his armor on the table in front of him and exhaled.

get

He thought that this washboard princess was going to be the empress.

It is worthy of being raised by Marquis Wu Cheng, who only protects the emperor, but does not protect the exact person.

Just thinking about it,

Xu Yuan's eyes suddenly froze, staring at the woman in red opposite:

"What do you do?"

Li Qingyan untied the belt around his waist, and his voice was as flat as water:

"Change your clothes and put on your armor."

Xu Yuan's eyes did not blink, and his expression was serious:

"Need help?"

Li Qingyan met his gaze, and his face did not have a trace of shyness:

"You seem to want to help Hongu with armor?"

After a pause,

There was a hint of mockery in her red eyes:

"Oh no, you seem to want to help Hongu take off his clothes."

Between the words,

The red clothes fell to the ground, and the room was silent.

Xu Yuan's eyes widened at first, then disappointed, and then surprised.

The beautiful and seductive vest line was crossed by the fair-skinned and flat lower abdomen of the stunning woman, but it was gone any further.

A strip of characteristic chest wrap is tightly wrapped and completely unrecognizable.
