Chapter XXVI Meetings
Phoenix was fast enough to go to the north to pretend to be a battle mage, and after so many hardships and setbacks, her strength is even stronger than before. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoIf it weren't for the great world of confrontation between the north and the south, Caesar alone would be too bright, and the phoenix would definitely be the brightest star.
At this moment, she swung her hand at will, neither using her exclusive weapon nor casting the dragon vein spell, but simply attacked with physical skills. The wind and thunder energy in the body and the blood of the dragon clan are like two big dragons intertwined with each other, twisted into a strand and flowing throughout the body. It's just an ordinary fist and kick that is unleashed, and the power is already incredible.
With a left fist and another palm, the two young women screamed and retreated, only to feel that they were in the midst of the raging wind and waves, and the huge pressure squeezed their chests and backs, and their eyes were dark, as if their souls were blinded, and the sound of wind and thunder was all around, and it was vaguely mixed with the majestic dragon roar from ancient times.
Both of them are also professionals, otherwise how could they bully Jasmine, who used to be a high-talent student in the academy, at will? Although they were terrified in their hearts, they had the strength in their hands steadily, and they did not intend to sit idly by.
However, just when they were about to fight with all their might, the brightness in front of them suddenly returned, and the power of the menacing wind and thunder that had come a moment ago converged cleanly in the blink of an eye, and between the retraction and release, there was no stagnation at all.
The charming young woman was stunned for a moment, and saw that the phoenix waved her hand to force others back, stretched out her hand to help Jasmine, and the person had already passed by Madame Lan and went out of the house.
Madam Lan didn't stop her, but just asked coldly, "Does the Phoenix Captain really want to take care of the affairs of our Lan Mansion?"
The phoenix didn't stop and said with a smile: "How dare I." I took the liberty of offending my wife, and Phoenix went to the meeting and came back to apologize to you immediately. ā
When the last word "apology" came out, Phoenix jumped out of the window at the end of the corner of the corridor in one step, she didn't know the way, and she was in a hurry to get out, so she had to make this decision. As soon as he got out of the castle, the sun was shining outside, the phoenix took a deep breath, stepped on the void, and every step was nearly a hundred meters out of thin air, and in a blink of an eye, he took Jasmine and went out of the Blue Mansion.
"Madame, you ...... Are you going to let her go?" the two young women asked indignantly as they returned to Madame Lan.
Mrs. Lan didn't answer, just walked to the window, stared into the air, and saw that on the path that the phoenix walked, there were footprints condensed by the power of wind and thunder in the air, and the texture of the shoe prints was clearly visible, and it did not disperse for a long time.
Madame Lan has been following General Lan for decades, and her vision is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary women, her face is impassive, but she thinks in her heart: "This is not our Wind Thunder Mage's combat skills and footwork, but it is like the 'tiptoe' of the Dragon Clan, is the concentration of the Dragon Clan's bloodline in that girl's body so thick......
At this time, the phoenix has taken Jasmine, all the way from the east of the imperial capital to the middle, the imperial capital is strictly forbidden to fly in the air at will during the non-war period, the phoenix out of the Blue Mansion, it fell to the ground, pulling Jasmine on foot. She saw that Jasmine's clothes were thin, so she went to the store and bought some warm and decent clothes for her to put on, and asked Jasmine if she was hungry and had eaten, but Jasmine just cried and shook her head, and did not say anything.
Phoenix sighed, thinking to herself that Mrs. Lan asked me to go to the headquarters for a meeting, I don't think it would be fake, but I don't necessarily have to take Jasmine with me, I just want to send her back to the Lan Mansion, at this time, the general is not there, looking at Mrs. Lan's posture, wouldn't it be to kill Jasmine alive?
The scene of Jasmine being beaten in front of her just now came to mind, Phoenix was angry, turned her heart sideways, and thought: "It is definitely not possible to send Jasmine back, she is pregnant with the general's child, and the safest way is to take her to the headquarters and hand her over directly to General Lan." Is it rude to bring a pregnant woman into the conference hall, and it doesn't matter so much. ā
Originally, Phoenix had always respected Mrs. Lan, but in a hurry, she took Jasmine out without authorization, and she was a little apprehensive. At this time, I thought that I should focus on the child in Jasmine's womb, but I put down that hesitation and became firm.
Jasmine finally stopped crying at this time, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, Teacher Phoenix, there is something I want to tell you, the eldest lady beat me like that because I saw-"
Phoenix interrupted her with a wave of her hand, saying, "It's not convenient for me to hear about this. I'm taking you now to General Blue, who has had no heirs for so many years, and you are now pregnant with his first and currently only child, and he will protect you no matter what. What you see, what you hear, how Madame Lan bullied you regardless of your pregnancy, you should tell the general to your face. ā
After thinking about it, he added: "Don't be afraid, if the general doesn't believe it, I can help you testify." No matter what mistake you make, it's always wrong for them to torture a pregnant woman like that. ā
As he spoke, he patted Jasmine on the shoulder and gave her an encouraging smile.
Jasmine wanted to speak and stopped, but after all, she didn't say anything more, and nodded silently.
All the way to the conference hall of the headquarters, the two guards in charge of guarding were inexplicable when they saw that Phoenix had brought a delicate pregnant woman, and one of them asked with a smile: "Captain Phoenix, who is this?"
"This is General Lan's wife, and the general specially arranged for me to bring it. Phoenix said lightly. As for why it was arranged, he didn't explain it, and put on a straightforward posture.
You must know that Phoenix has been undercover in the northern country for many years, and she has not seen any storms and crises? Although she is rigorous, she is not rigid, and she abides by the rules, but she will not be bound by the rules. Although I knew that it was not appropriate to bring Jasmine into the market, I had to deal with special circumstances in special circumstances.
Sure enough, the two guards hesitated for a moment, looked at the phoenix's face carefully, and finally didn't ask any more questions, opened the door and said, "Then please come in." ā
Of course, the sound insulation of the conference hall is excellent, when the door is closed, you can't hear the slightest sound on the door panel, but as soon as the door opens, Phoenix immediately hears a gentle and kind voice coming out: "...... How's going on with General Long?"
Phoenix immediately pricked up his ears, only to hear another voice reply: "Lord Marshal, we rescued last night, and this morning, we finally rescued my father." It's just that my father hasn't woken up yet, and after waking up, I don't know how much strength he can recover......"
Phoenix recognized this voice as General Long's eldest son, Long Jun, and also Long Qiqi's father, this person is very similar to General Long's personality and style, there is one thing to say, since he said that he was rescued, it must be 100% sure that there will be no more accidents.
Hearing that General Long was not dead, Phoenix couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, she was originally thinking about how to figure things out along the way, try to resolve the contradiction between the military department and Caesar, if General Long died, it would be really difficult.
But listening to Long Jun's meaning, General Long was fortunate to save his life, and he had probably become half a wasted person, thinking of this, Phoenix's heart couldn't help but sink again.
The door was open, and Jasmine seemed to wince, and Phoenix took her hand, squeezed it lightly for comfort, and strode into the hall. The door opened and closed behind him, and after a muffled thud, the hall door closed, and all outside sounds were cut off. The solemn and solemn atmosphere of the conference hall came to his face, and the phoenix took a deep breath, and for some reason there was a sense of depression that he was on the battlefield.
The marshal sitting in the center of the hall raised his eyes and saw that it was a phoenix, and said with a slight smile: "It turns out that the little girl who picked me up from the customs is here, just right, come and sit, we are discussing how to deal with Caesar." ā
Phoenix felt a pang in her heart, not knowing if the marshal had something to say, after all, she was the one who teleported Caesar away.
Although his heart was pounding, Phoenix's face was still calm and respectful, and he nodded, "Okay." ā
She saw the situation at the scene, General Lan and the female general were separated from the marshal, all the officers of the empire were present, and Cassadine Levi and other acquaintances were also in the crowd, and she thought that it would not be appropriate to bring Jasmine directly to General Lan in public, so after thinking about it, she whispered to Jasmine: "You sit next to me first, and when the meeting is over, I will take you to the general." ā
Jasmine snorted and raised her eyes to look at General Lan, who also frowned, obviously extremely dissatisfied with Jasmine's presence here.
When the two of them looked at each other, Jasmine trembled all over her body and lowered her head.
Phoenix felt Jasmine's palms suddenly become cold, thinking that she was frightened by the atmosphere of the scene, and didn't care.
The marshal waited until the phoenix sat down, then smiled slightly, looked at Long Jun again, and said: "Where did you talk about it just now, oh yes, speaking of General Long's injury, you said that he was out of danger of life, but his strength may be greatly damaged in the future." ā
Long Jun's eyes were red, and he didn't know if it was because of his father's serious injury and excessive grief, or because of the fatigue of rescuing overnight.
He suppressed his throat and said word by word: "My father has worked hard for the empire for so many years, but I didn't expect that in the end, it was not at the hands of the battle mage, but he was killed like this by his own people! As he spoke, he glanced at the phoenix intentionally or unintentionally.
Seeing that the phoenix was expressionless, Long Jun snorted, and continued: "In the past, we didn't have a marshal in charge, and we were passive everywhere, but now that the marshal is out of the customs, our Wind and Thunder Empire is no longer fearless. My father was strict and disciplined all his life, and if I said that I wanted to take Caesar back and put him to death, my father would certainly not be happy, and he would say that I did not distinguish between public and private. But I hope that the marshal will arrest Caesar and deal with it by military justice, so that my father will be justice. ā
By the end, the voice was already choked.
Most of the school officials present had experienced yesterday's battle in the Holy Miracle Square, and they were very dissatisfied with Caesar's domineering and domineering, and at this moment, they were almost in tears when they saw Long Jun, a resolute man who had never shed tears, and they were even more sympathetic in their hearts, so whether it was the school officer who was close to General Lan, or the school officer who was more inclined to General Long's side, they all agreed loudly: "Yes, that Caesar relied on his strong strength to come to the imperial capital in civil strife, causing General Long to be seriously injured, and the imperial capital was turbulent, and he really had to be arrested and severely punished!"
As for what kind of severe punishment it was, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts that Caesar had committed a capital crime. Military law disposes of military law, and it sounds good, but the final result is still execution.
