21 Feasts

Yu Qing looked at Jielan in a daze, Jielan felt his gaze, and felt a little embarrassed and shy in her heart, she hurriedly turned her head away, I don't know why, in the face of such a strange gaze from the city lord, Jielan always felt a little uneasy, and just wanted to get out of the tent camp quickly. The city lord of Yuqing seemed to feel Jielan's resistance to him, he took a step back, and said with a smile: "It seems that it is really difficult to get close to you, but now I am always relieved, the master still thinks that you and the white devil have the same heart?" ”

Jielan was in trouble in her heart, and she didn't understand the meaning of the city lord's words more and more, but she just felt that why this city lord was so similar to Qing Zhan, that smile, that demeanor, that arrogance, that domineering but gentle words to herself, all of this was so similar to Qing Zhan, Jielan was a little confused, she clasped her hands tightly, settled down, and said, "Look at the city lord to be cautious!" ”

Yu Qing laughed and said, "Miss Wangjielan, don't mind the words of the master, the master will summon all the soldiers to return to the city immediately, hoping to discuss how to cure the white devil." ”

Finally heard this city lord say that he could save Chengfeng, Jielan herself was a little unbelievable, she was stunned for a moment, her eyes slowly began to moisten, these many days of hard work, finally have the hope of saving Chengfeng, this is how unfortunate and happy for Jielan, she made a deep sigh to Yu Qing, and said: "I will always be grateful for the city lord's life-saving grace." ”

Yu Qing didn't say anything more, he walked towards the outside of the tent, turned back to Jielan and said, "Let's go!" The Lord has treated you with a guest of honor, and you will be the Lord's guest. ”

Jielan always felt that this city lord always had something to say, but no matter what his intentions were, as long as he could save Chengfeng, as long as it was like this.

Yu Qing came out of the tent camp and said to the soldiers: "All the soldiers listen to the order and return to the city court immediately without delay." ”

The whole army immediately knelt down and received the order. Yu Qing looked at the side of him, he suddenly grabbed Jielan's arm, this action made all the soldiers present, including Qi Xue, stunned, and Jielan was also a little overwhelmed and wanted to break free, but he felt that this was too rude, so he didn't resist.

"The Jielan envoy is the envoy of Chiyan City, and the envoy to our city should be treated as a guest, and the soldiers shall not offend him in the future, if anyone dares to disobey my order, he will be dealt with according to the law."

The soldiers immediately responded: "Subordinates listen to orders!" ”

"Let's go!" Yu Qing shouted, the momentum was so convincing, just like Qing Zhan, that kind of awe-inspiring look was so enviable, Jielan didn't know why, she always associated this city lord with Qing Zhan.

Is it because I miss him too much? Jielan sighed, her eyes were full of sadness, maybe it would be a long time before she could forget him from her memory, after all, this man once held such a heavy position in her heart, and when she understood that she already had him in her heart, she should have known that it was a pain from the moment.

Qi Xue looked at Jielan standing beside the city lord, for some reason, she always felt very uneasy, but she knew that she would definitely be taken down by these guards if she talked nonsense, so she had to endure it for the sake of Chengfeng.

.............................

At noon, the hunting team began to return to the court, and everyone rushed towards the city court on horseback, even the city lord Yu Qing did not take the ride and chose to ride the beast, which made the soldiers even more puzzled.

And beside Liutao, flying was the Blue Devil, who was resolutely affectionate, like a sleeping child without the slightest vitality. Jielan, who was flying behind him, felt very strange, she always felt that this green devil was depressed, as if her heart was full of many things, so that she seemed so silent, Jielan wanted to talk to him, wanted to know why he was like this, as for why she wanted to care about this child so much, Jielan didn't know, maybe everyone was a blood demon, so they had a feeling of blood connection, all of them saw him like this, how could they not take it to heart.

"Blue Demon Lord?" Jelan tentatively called out his name.

However, the Blue Devil turned a deaf ear, did not react to Jielan's shout, and still lowered her head, as if immersed in her own world, Jielan suddenly felt a little pity for this child, she continued to ask carefully: "Blue Demon King, I am the Blue Devil, I have been to Qingliu Town, that is your hometown, do you remember?" ”

At this time, the blue devil finally raised his empty and godless eyes, he looked at the blue-haired woman in front of him, and muttered, "I... Hometown? ”

Jielan didn't expect this sentence to finally make him feel it, she nodded, and said, "Yes, they are all thinking about you, but because of your departure, a lot of things have happened in Qingliu Town, but you don't have to worry, now Qingliu Town has recovered as before." ”

"Worried... Miss me? He spoke intermittently, as if a child who had been ill for a long time was unusually conscious.

"If you can go back there one day, I believe they will welcome you very much, but you accompany the city lord, and I don't know if there will be such an opportunity." Jielan sighed.

"I... Didn't want to stay with him. He said this very lightly and weakly, but Jielan still listened, which made Jielan stunned, but when Jielan was in Qingliu Town, she also heard the uncle with the broken leg mention that the green devil himself did not want to go to the city court, and was later forcibly taken away by the city court, so that he had a grudge, so it would cause Qingliu Town to be controlled by resentment and become a ruined town.

Jielan wanted to say something more, but saw Liutao fly to Jielan's side on a tiger and leopard, and persuaded her sharply: "Miss Jielan, please don't ask about the Blue Devil, the city lord has ordered that no one should talk to the Blue Devil, so as not to disturb the Blue Devil's retreat." ”

Jielan saw that the leader's expression was quite serious, as if he had violated the law by talking to the blue devil for a few words, and his gloomy face made Jielan's back cold. Although Jielan was not convinced, she still had to listen to the order and stop talking to the blue devil, she turned her head sideways to look at this weak child, her delicate face was not at all in shape, and even those eyes were forever looking at the vast earth.

This child full of fascination makes Jielan feel so distressed, and the reason why she cares about him so much may be because he is a blood demon, just like his younger brother!

............................

The brigade flew for about an hour, and then returned to the city court, when they returned to the city, the Ministry of Rites and the civil and military officials were already waiting outside the city gate, and when they saw the figure of the city lord riding a beast in the sky, everyone knelt down and bowed.

The flying horse fell back to the ground, Yu Qing City Lord and all the soldiers got off the riding beast, facing these civil and military officials, Yu Qing raised his hand lightly, and said: "Everyone is flat!" ”

Hong Shangshu and all the civil and military officials got up, and then retreated to both sides to make way for a way, and then Yu Qing walked into the city court from the road, and Jielan and Qi Xue also followed behind the team.

When Hong Shangshu saw the figures of Jielan and Qi Xue in the team, he thought that the city lord should have fulfilled their request, and when Jielan turned his head sideways and saw Hong Shangshu, he was a little grateful to him, so he smiled slightly to show his gratitude.

When Hong Shangshu saw it, he was terrified, pretending not to see it, and just waited for the city lord and his party to enter the city court. When Jielan saw him like that, she thought that he must be afraid of causing misunderstanding among other officials, so she wanted to avoid suspicion, so she didn't take it to heart.

After entering the city court, Jielan and Qixue were taken away by a palace man and led to a place called 'Jiaolan Palace', the two palace people were sent to serve the two of them, Jielan and Qixue were not used to being served, so they didn't let them follow them, but this gorgeous and big. Jiaolan Palace's eyes are dizzying, compared to the past few days of eating and sleeping, Jielan only feels like a world of difference, but she doesn't care much about these extravagant and gorgeous city courts, even the meals prepared by the palace people She has no intention of enjoying them, just worried about Chengfeng and the black pig, and I don't know if they will have anything to do after she and Qi Xue leave, and I don't know when the city lord will be able to issue an edict for the blue devil to heal Chengfeng.

After waiting for about two hours, the sky also darkened, and at this time a eunuch came to ask: "The lord has prepared a banquet in the 'Qinghe Palace', and ordered the servants to come and invite the two messengers to the banquet." ”

Jielan and Qixue glanced at each other, not knowing whether to go to this banquet or not. Jielan is still pretending to be the messenger of Chiyan City, if they know, then they will not be guilty of defrauding the king, let alone save Chengfeng, even if they themselves are afraid that they will not be able to protect themselves.

It was really difficult to ride a tiger like this, so Jielan had to respond: "Okay, please lead the way ahead of us." ”

"Are you really going?" Qi Xue became worried.

Jielan smiled indifferently and said, "Until now, how can you not go, don't worry, I think it should be fine." ”

"Then I'll go with you, and if anything happens, I'll help you." Qi Xue said with concern.

Jielan nodded, and let the eunuch lead the way, and she and Qi Xue followed closely behind.

After bypassing a few corridors and a few pavilions, she saw the 'Qinghe Palace', Jielan was suddenly a little nervous, she clenched her hands, took a deep breath, and walked into the hall.

As soon as I entered, I saw that all the ministers had taken their seats, and after hearing the report of the palace people, all the officials got up to greet her, Jielan was a little frightened in the face of so many officials, she bowed, and then she didn't know what to do.

Hong Shangshu and an old man over forty years old walked over, and the old man said: "In the city assistant of Qingzhou City, about the envoy, Hong Shangshu has already informed the old man, and the old man is here to express his gratitude to the envoy for rescuing the city lord. He bowed to Jielan, which made Jielan feel inexplicably frightened. Busy said: "I just happened to save the city lord, and Lord Chengfu doesn't need to be polite." ”

"Then please take a seat!" Josuke arranged for Jeran to sit down next to him as a sign of respect for her.

Jielan only felt a little flattered, and she didn't object, and sat next to him according to Josuke's arrangement. After she and Josuke were seated, the other officials took their seats.

After a while, he saw the city lord of Yuqing walking out of the apse and sitting on the upper seat, he looked in the direction of Jielan at first glance, but when he saw her reigning, he put his mind at ease and said: "This banquet is specially set up for the envoy of Chiyan City, but it is also the lord's gratitude to the envoy of Jielan." ”
