Chapter 354: Night Invasion
The long knives of the forbidden soldiers were shining brightly, and they were standing on his neck, glaring at him angrily.
Yuan Lang: "Uh...... This is a misunderstanding, this prince has just gone to chase the thief...... Four or five men in black broke in, can you believe it? ”
The forbidden army looked at each other angrily, and took another step forward: "......"
Yuan Lang also smiled bitterly and took a step back with them, crying and laughing: "Okay, obviously I don't believe it." ”
The rough little commander of the forbidden army, who had a long beard, waved his hand in a rough voice and shouted: "Come on, take down this person." ”
As he spoke, everyone also rushed up and tied this strange person to a strong knot. After all, Yuan Lang is the prince of a neighboring country, and he is visiting as a guest at this time, so it will be very bad if he is embarrassed, so he honestly let them tie their hands.
Yuan Lang saw that they still wanted to wrap the rope around his body, and he couldn't help but struggle, begging: "You don't have to tie so much, right?" ”
He could almost imagine that the damn guy in Canglan would laugh at him when he saw him make such a mess in the middle of the night! He wasn't afraid of any ridicule, but what he was most afraid of was that guy Canglan!
"Alas! I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that Lao Tzu's reputation would be ruined tonight. Yuan Lang shook his head and sighed, then looked at the little commander of the forbidden army again, and asked: "I said, I am really the prince of the frost wolf, Yuan Lang, I really came to the palace to catch thieves in the middle of the night, I don't believe you can ask your commander Li, he knows me." ”
The little forbidden army who was holding the rope to continue to tie him up, heard the words, couldn't help but glance back at the little commander with a beard, and replied: "Boss, looking at his outfit seems to be a little familiar, it is the costume of the Frost Wolf Country, do you think you have returned to Commander Li?" ”
Yuan Lang saw that there was still someone who knew the goods, and couldn't help but take the opportunity to shout: "Yes, yes, I am really the prince of the frost wolf." ”
Who knew that the beard just groaned for a while, raised his eyes and glared at him, waved his hand and said, "Tie him up!" ”
Since this person is a guest, there is really no reason to run to the palace in the middle of the night, and Commander Li has also informed their subordinates before, this is the critical time for Ao Yuanguo, and there are crises all around, so you must not take it lightly. This man doesn't know whether he is friend or foe, and even if he is an ally, there is nothing wrong with taking him. So he waved his hand mercilessly and took it down.
Yuan Lang had a thousand helplessness, ten thousand helplessness, and was also rudely pushed and taken away by these forbidden soldiers.
In the middle of the night, the palace hall was self-respecting, and the group almost fell asleep in the dim light.
Yuan Lang was tied up by five flowers and stood in the main hall, staring helplessly at Canglan who was laughing around him, and said angrily: "I said that if you want to laugh, just laugh, laugh enough, hurry up and untie the rope for this prince, tonight is really a misunderstanding." ”
Canglan, who was woken up in the middle of the night and called to the palace, did not mean to be sleepy at all, dressed neatly, and his face was quite energetic, at this time, he saw Yuan Lang, who came as a guest, was actually pushed forward by the forbidden army, and he was also quite surprised, and turned around twice and sneered: "Everyone has been together for so long, I didn't even know that the little prince of the frost wolf would not sleep in the middle of the night and sleepwalk." ”
Yuan Lang couldn't help but grit his teeth when he heard this, and said hatefully: "Damn, who is sleepwalking?" Can't Lao Tzu sleep and recognize the bed? ”
After speaking, he also turned directly to the fifth princess sitting on the throne, and replied: "I can't sleep tonight, in the room, and then I heard a series of footsteps, and then I saw a group of five black-clothed masked people walking quickly from the opposite roof. I was so itchy that I chased them through the window, and ended up following them all the way into the palace. They also left three men to deal with me, and I killed one of them, attracting the forbidden army. ”
"Then, I followed the remaining two to catch up with the previous two, and then there was another big fight, and they wanted to kill me, but then they heard the voice of the forbidden army and knew that it was impossible to kill me, so they withdrew."
"What I said is true."
Yuan Lang saw that the fifth princess's face was full of exhaustion and loss, lest she refuse to believe herself, and she was also anxious.
Here, when Canglan saw his anxious appearance, he couldn't help but laugh, he knew that Yuan Lang would not be the one who entered the palace late at night to inquire about Ao Yuan's national situation, and he lived next door to Yuan Lang, and when Yuan Lang left, he also heard the sound of footsteps.
However, it is one thing to say that he is in the know, and it is another thing to see him in such a hurry at this time.
It's rare to see Yuan Lang in a hurry to look like this, and he can't help but laugh, "Hey, I said that you don't go to sleep in the middle of the night, but you still run to chase the thief!" It's just a matter of chasing the thief, and he was even run away by the thief. I can't help you now. ”
Yuan Lang looked at Canglan's obviously knowingly questioning and gloating appearance, and he also gritted his teeth with hatred and said: "Damn Canglan, I'll settle accounts with you later!" ”
As he spoke, he also turned to the fifth princess again, and at this time, the fifth princess also waved her hand to let him loosen the tie. While his arm was numb, he said to the fifth princess with a cherished voice: "I followed them into the palace and heard that they were going to the palace of the abolished emperor. I'm afraid that they are going to join forces to depose the emperor and engage in some conspiracy, so you'd better be careful. ”
Who knows, when the fifth princess heard this, she sat up straight and sighed in a low voice: "This is impossible." ”
Yuan Lang couldn't see anything impossible here, frowned and looked at her and said: "In history, there have been many such things, and the abolished emperor didn't want to lose his authority, so he promised his ministers benefits, and then colluded inside and outside to make trouble!" ”
The fifth princess sighed: "I know this, but it is impossible at the moment. ”
Yuan Lang and Canglan didn't know what the meaning of this sentence was, so they all stood in place and looked at her suspiciously, waiting for an answer.
Seeing their puzzled looks, the fifth princess shook her head, almost shed tears, and only said softly: "I mean that the second emperor brother is not wrong to depose the emperor, and it is not wrong to have the possibility of recontacting the old rebellion before, but now all this is impossible." This afternoon, the second emperor brother has passed away. ”
"Passed away? How so? Yuan Lang exclaimed, and then looked at Canglan, who was also at a loss in his eyes, obviously not knowing.
The fifth princess nodded, but did not specifically explain Feng Fengche's death, only said lightly: "Yes, it has passed away." ”
Yuan Lang and Canglan continued to look at each other, and then Yuan Lang moved his mouth, not knowing how to comfort her. Still, he felt that there was something very strange about it. Obviously, these black-clothed people kept claiming that they wanted to come into the palace to look for Feng Yunche, but now Feng Yunche died at a little earlier, didn't those black-clothed people even know the news of Feng Yunche's death?
If they knew the news of Feng Yunche's death in advance, then why did they come to the palace to look for him?
Or is this matter planned by Feng Yunche and these men in black at all?
The more he imagined, the more worried he became, and after staring at Canglan for a long time, he finally read some of the information inside.
When Canglan first heard the news, he was just as shocked, and then he was puzzled. Yuan Lang's personality, he is very clear, Yuan Lang's character, he is also very convinced. He thought that Yuan Lang couldn't lie, and Yuan Lang did hear what the man in black said. Since the man in black knew that Feng Yunche had passed away, he even ventured into the palace to visit, it was enough to show that Feng Yunche's death was not so simple.
However, at this time, he went to see the five princesses sitting on the throne with Yuan Lang, and saw that the five princesses were still immersed in the grief of the death of their relatives, and they couldn't help but be silent when they completely ignored the abnormal events.
He and Yuen Long glanced at each other, temporarily suppressed the doubts churning in their chests, and only said, "How is the emperor going to arrange the aftermath of the abolished emperor?" ”
The fifth princess rubbed her aching forehead, and sighed for a long time: "Before he died, he asked to return to the ancestral land as a guilty body, and I agreed, and at the same time decided to bury him with the etiquette of the crown prince." ”
Yuan Lang and Canglan glanced at each other, and Canglan said: "So, in a few days, his body will be sent back to the ancestral land, right?" ”
The fifth princess was still sad when she mentioned this, and nodded weakly: "Aoyuan has suffered a heavy blow, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt, and at this time, I don't have the time and energy to organize a very grand funeral for him, so everything will be simple, and he will be sent to the ancestral land outside the southern city for burial in two days." ”
At this time, Yuan Lang and Canglan looked at each other, and there was no doubt about it. The two looked at each other, and then bowed their heads to the fifth princess and said, "We feel very sorry for what happened tonight, and I guarantee that there will be no more such things in the future." Please also ask the emperor to mourn. ”
The fifth princess nodded, and no longer had the energy to continue to entertain them, and said, "Thank you." It's getting late, go and rest! ”
Yuan Lang and Canglan bowed in unison, took a step back and said, "Yuanlang, Canglan, retire." ”
Saying that, the two of them also turned around and walked out of this Aoyuan hall with a lot of doubts, and when they went out and saw the bright moon hanging in the air, they also glanced at each other again, and then strode out of the palace with the eunuch who led the way.
In the main hall, the fifth princess leaned on the dragon chair and rubbed her forehead that was aching because of sleepiness, and only sighed for a long time before asking, "What is going on with this matter?" ”
