Chapter 486: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell

Half a month later.

The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and the entrance of the towering and majestic city gate of Di'an City is still full of traffic even at night, and the business travelers come from the wide official road, and there is an endless stream.

In the bustling night, a carriage engraved with the coat of arms of the Great Honglu Temple drove out of the city gate in this bustling, attracting a lot of business travelers along the way, and the carriage also drove along the official road to the distance without hurrying in this discussion.

As the only political center of the Great Yan Dynasty, the mountains and fields around Di'an City are dotted with manors built by various high-ranking officials and magnates.

Some estates are located on the top of high mountains, while others are hidden in mountain valleys.

The blonde woman in a luxurious dress glanced through the window lattice at the Kowloon Mountains shrouded in the bustling lights of Di'an City, and the look in her blue eyes was incomprehensible.

After staring for a long time, Auren Li quietly withdrew her gaze and slowly closed her eyes, and her beautiful golden eyelashes fluttered slightly.

The carriage drove out of Di'an City, drove through the most prosperous official road in the suburbs of Di'an City, and then quietly turned into a tree-lined path next to the official road.

The moonlight shines through the layers of branches of the woods, and through the lattice, she shines on the flawless side face of Oronli's closed eyes, making her whole person look like a saint under the moon.

In this silence, I don't know how long it has passed, Auren Li slowly opened her eyes, and only crossed paths to look at Huron opposite her.

As a carriage for diplomatic envoys, in order to show the majesty of the imperial court, the interior of the frame in the temple is very luxurious.

The interior is very spacious, and even though there is a can like an iron mountain sitting opposite Aurenli, the carriage is still not cramped.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

Huron's voice came out through the tin can, and it seemed a little urn-like, and his words were awkward, not the words of Great Yan.

Oronri didn't respond to the question, her hand lifted slightly, and a glass bottle of pale blue liquid appeared between her slender fingers.

Unscrew the cork, lift the swan-like neck, and drink it down.

The paleness dissipated slightly, and Auren Li looked indifferently at the path in the forest outside the window lattice bathed in the moonlight, and her voice was very soft:

"Sides, do you think that the third prince of the Great Yan Dynasty really wants to cooperate with us?"

"I'm just your guardian knight, and I don't know anything about politics, Your Highness." Huron hung his head.

“.”

After a moment of silence, the corners of Olunli's lips were slightly hooked, and the slit of the skirt of the dress was slightly pulled up, so that she could interweave a pair of slender and white jade legs, support her chin, and stare at the tin can opposite with interest:

"Sure enough, it's a martial artist who only knows how to fight, it's really boring.

"Then let me change the question, if I say that we are in danger now, can you, the guardian knight, take me back?"

“.”

There was a moment of silence, and Huron's voice through the helmet was serious: "I am willing to pay with my life for this." ”

"Whew"

Hearing this answer, a touch of helplessness flashed on Oleli's slightly lazy expression, and she looked at Di'an City, which had disappeared from view, and said faintly:

"Perhaps, I should never have left the Royal Academy in the first place, let alone promised the Second Crown Prince to come to this strange dynasty."

"You think we're in danger?" Huron spat out such a sentence like a gourd.

"Huh."

With a crisp laugh, Ao Lunli leaned forward slightly, crossed Erlang's legs, supported his elbows and knees, and held his cheeks, and asked softly:

"Since we set foot on this strange continent, you have seen everything we have seen along the way, and I want to hear your evaluation of this dynasty."

After a brief silence, Huron replied solemnly:

"It's a huge, bloated, decaying, but powerful empire."

When Ollenli heard this answer, her ruddy lips hooked unconsciously, and her slender index finger gently tapped her cheeks:

"Your assessment is pertinent, but you missed the most important point.

"Arrogance."

Ole Li's jade feet crossed Erlang's legs hooked the amethyst high-heeled boots under her feet and rippled slightly, and her voice was faint:

"From the lords of the dynasty to the commoners on the streets, everyone in this empire has a kind of arrogance in their bones towards us aliens.

"Whether Dongying Island is occupied by you Xi'en people or by the Japanese people, it makes no difference to my Great Yan. Sides, look at the words of His Royal Highness the Prince, it is really unpleasant to say such words when you ask us for them."

Speaking of which,

Auren Li narrowed her bright eyes, and her delicate and beautiful red lips hooked up a cold and crazy smile:

"It's so uncomfortable that I want to see the handsome foreign prince kneeling at my feet and licking my shoes."

“.”

Huron Sides did not answer these words, as quiet as an iron mountain.

Ole Li glanced at the opposite rider and asked with a smile:

"You think I can't do it?"

In his gaze, Huron lowered his head:

"The will of the lord is what my heart desires."

The blood rose of the empire, a madman who stabbed three of his own brothers and sisters, and a nobleman who likes to tease the strong.

"Giggles~ just kidding."

A burst of laughter echoed like silver bells, and Auren Li lowered her legs, and the murderous intent on her face dissipated, replaced by a softness like a saint:

"This Great Yan Empire is different from the natives we have encountered, we should be pragmatic now and think about how to get out.

"After all,

"Our goal of coming to the Great Yan Empire has been achieved."

"Hey, didn't you say that Xu Changge would come?"

At the gate of the manor hidden in the mountain col, looking at the figure shrouded in black robes, and then at the empty mountain forest behind him, Li Yunqing suddenly had an urge to close the door directly.

Xu Yuan casually pulled down the hood, and directly pushed away Li Yunqing, who was blocking the door, and walked into the garden, his eyes casually swept around the extraordinarily decorated courtyard, with a bit of admiration:

"You know how to enjoy, there is still a real estate in this kind of place, why is it so dark inside, people? Oh, yes, you kid is so wealthy, most of it has already been transferred. ”

As he spoke, he walked to a pavilion on the side of the courtyard like a master: "Anyway, you are leaving Beijing, why don't you sell this property to me?" I just don't need a manor to rest on. ”

Li Yunqing, who was dressed in blue and white and tattooed with a purple dragon suit, quickly followed behind Xu Yuan, and said quickly:

"Don't talk about these things that you don't have, if Xu Changge doesn't come, I won't participate in tonight's affairs."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan waved his hand lightly:

"Don't worry, isn't it a while before you made the appointment?"

Saying that, Xu Yuan walked into the pavilion and sat on the stone bench, looked at the three princes with a disgruntled face, and smiled with a little interest:

"Moreover, haven't you already broken through the third grade?"

"The matter of my going to Dongying has already been decided, so naturally there is no need to suppress cultivation anymore."

Li Yunqing's face showed a touch of pride when he heard this, but soon this smugness dissipated, and he glanced at the quiet classical manor:

"Seeing that you have a fearless posture, I think Xu Changge has already arrived, right?"

Xu Yuan immediately showed a smile on his face:

"Maybe."

"Maybe?"

“.”

After a short silence, Li Yunqing asked a little tentatively:

"What did you say to Xu Changge?"

Xu Yuan's gaze rose slightly, revealing a trace of memory, and said:

"After that day, I went back to the house to find him, and told him that I had seen the princess of the kingdom of Sean, and that we might not be able to defeat her, so I wanted him to tie her up."

Li Yunqing gasped when he heard this:

"Hey, you're talking so directly?"

"I've always been so direct."

"And what did he say?"

"He told me to get out."

“.” Li Yunqing.

Rubbing his eyebrows, Li Yunqing propped his elbows on the stone table to support his forehead, and stared at Xu Yuan with a painful face:

"In other words, your eldest brother didn't agree to tonight's event at all, did he?"

"Yes."

"Xu Changtian, tonight's move is to tear your face, and the Xi'an Kingdom doesn't care about your identity."

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry about it yet."

"Why am I not in a hurry?! If you want to die, don't pull this king. ”

Li Yunqing stood up directly and wanted to leave.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan hurriedly grabbed him and said in a low voice:

"Don't worry, I was joking just now, Xu Changge and he will come."

"Jokes? Are you saying that Xu Changge actually agreed? ”

"Not really."

“.” Li Yunqing.

Facing the other party's stupid gaze, Xu Yuan said firmly:

"You don't understand my big brother, I said he would come, and he would definitely come, even if he was reluctant."

"Why?" Li Yunqing frowned.

Xu Yuan spread his hands and said loudly:

"If he doesn't come, I'll dare to die to show him!"

“.” Li Yunqing.

“.” Xu Changge.

The sound that echoed through the col fell, and the courtyard fell silent again.

And in this silence, Xu Yuan inexplicably felt a chill behind him, and hurriedly coughed lightly:

"Ahem, I know this, just go ahead with the plan."

Li Yunqing rubbed his eyebrows, and reminded in a somewhat unkind tone:

"Okay, this king has broken through the third grade now, even if he can't beat it, this place is only three hundred miles away from Di'an City, as long as this king wants to escape, they don't dare to chase after him."

"Don't worry, you don't necessarily run faster than me when it comes to running."

"Tsk, not necessarily."

"Huh."

Sitting down again, Li Yunqing looked at the sky and said in a low voice:

"There are about two quarters of an hour left before the time I agreed with the two of them, so let's discuss countermeasures for the time being."

"Countermeasure? What countermeasures? ”

Xu Yuan's eyes were strange, and he said as a matter of course: "If Xu Changge doesn't come, you, the Great Grandmaster of the Third Grade, won't want me to be in charge of the tin can, right?" ”

As he spoke, Xu Yuan's fingertips lightly clasped the stone table in front of him and said:

"Instead of discussing this, why don't you tell me what you and that Princess Aurenli have discussed in the past half a month? Now it has spread all over Di'an City, and the two of you have had no less than seven or eight private meetings in the past half a month. ”

"A private meeting? Scold. None of this is meant to set the stage for tonight. ”

Li Yunqing snorted lightly: "That woman is very smart, every time she negotiates with that woman, it takes a lot of effort from King Ben to advance the agenda, and it has taken a total of eleven negotiations in the past half a month to finally finalize the overall cooperation plan, and only then did she lure her to the outside of this Di'an City for final consultations." ”

When Xu Yuan heard this, he frowned slightly:

"You've invited him to meet eleven times in half a month? Will it be too often, which may make the woman wary. ”

Li Yunqing waved his hand and said with a smile:

"I naturally took this into consideration, and I told him that I might have to make Dongying next month, in this case, this king naturally has to be diligent."

"You're leaving next month?"

"Naturally, I lied to her, and I didn't report it in the early morning when I went to Dongying."

"In other words, if she knew, then she could be sure it was a trap?"

"Now the people who know about this matter are only those important ministers in the court, where did she come from?"

Li Yunqing replied indifferently: "Moreover, this king has already put the thousands of miles of dark soul incense of our royal family on her, even if she wants to run, it is too late." ”

“.”

With a slight groan, Xu Yuan nodded slightly.

As an envoy entering a strange empire, as long as someone in power wants you to die, even if you know it, there is not much room for resistance.

The reason why Li Yunqing and him chose to do it in such a poor and remote place was actually more because they wanted to conceal his identity as Xu Yuan and the connection between Li Yunqing and the Prime Minister's Mansion, so they couldn't do it in Di'an City.

Just thinking about it,

Xu Yuan's ear suddenly heard a rather cold and gentle male voice:

"Two stupid people, still thinking about how to plot here, those two have already abandoned the car and run, and it's too late to chase now."

The moment he heard the voice, Xu Yuan immediately stood up, and his spiritual vision spread out and swept around, but unfortunately, he couldn't sense anyone around except Li Yunqing.

Xu Changge's transmission

Seeing Xu Yuan get up suddenly, Li Yunqing asked in a little surprise:

"What's wrong with you? Shall we meet in a moment and do it directly, or shall I wait for a moment to discuss with them before making a surprise attack? ”

Xu Yuan scolded in a low voice:

"Don't plot here, you idiot, those two have already abandoned the car and run away, it's too late to chase after them."

“.”

Li Yunqing was stunned when he heard this, and the majestic soul belonging to the Great Master of the Third Rank instantly poked out, and rushed away along the path in front of the manor, and after a while, he frowned and said:

"What are you talking about? I kept watching, and the two of them were sitting in the carriage of the Great Hung Lu Temple, which was only a quarter of an hour's drive from us. ”

“.”

Xu Yuan didn't say much, the blood in his eyes flashed, and he jumped directly and galloped away quickly along the forest path.

Seeing this, although Li Yunqing had doubts in his eyes, he immediately looked solemn and followed Xu Yuan.

A moment later, the two figures slowly landed in front of the luxurious carriage engraved with the crest of the Great Honglu Temple.

And through the window lattice of the driverless carriage, Xu Yuan's eyes happened to meet and looked out of the car.

Look at each other for a moment,

The willow wood ghost blade instantly appeared in Xu Yuan's hand, and before Li Yunqing could speak, he slashed away with a sword.

The sword marks were accompanied by splashed ink and blood light across more than ten zhang, and they were directly cut in half with the horses and carts!

And under this slash, the two broken figures in the car quietly turned into a starlight and dissipated into the woods under the moonlit night after a short period of stagnation.
