Chapter 169: Return My Apprentice
The fog is colorful, the trees are thick, the vines are entwined, the huge banyan trees are entangled with wisteria, and the strings of purple petals hanging low to the ground are stained with the morning dewdrops, refracting ten thousand rays of light in the soft morning light, dazzling like stars. The trees were arranged in an orderly manner on either side of a road paved with coloured stones, and the rainbow-like path was as wide as a rainbow leading to a majestic palace in the jungle.
At this moment, hundreds of thousands of elven soldiers on both sides of a colorful road more than ten miles long were neatly dressed, with serious faces and standing majestically. The spear in his hand shimmered in the sunlight, and a bunch of red tassels on the shiny copper-colored helmet stood out.
An ornately decorated four-wheeled boxcar passed majestically in front of the soldiers, each pulled by four unicorns with snow-white fur, each with a red ribbon tied to its horns. The patterns on the car are all meticulously carved by skilled craftsmen, the windows are open, and the characters sitting in the car are like a precious portrait, dignified and beautiful, quite kingly. The wheels turned slowly, barely making a sound, and wherever they passed, the elven soldiers stood upright, puffed out their chests, raised their hands in salute, and held their breath and stared through the windows of the car.
"Sure enough, it looks like a fairy. Although it was a flash, almost every elven soldier sighed heartily in his heart.
In front of the car were eight guards pacing and dressed in white to clear the way, and there were also eight guards in the backyard, their costumes and grooming like the eight in front of them, all with their heads held high and looking ahead.
"Salute!" the captain of the guard shouted loudly and loudly, causing both sides to look into the car, and the soldiers who were in a hurry immediately came back to their senses and saluted solemnly. The guards still held their heads high.
Every mile the captain of the guard shouted, the soldiers in front saluted, and the back put down, and the scene was quite solemn.
The car stopped less than a hundred paces from the palace's tall gatehouse. A bright red carpet emerges from the massive arched gatehouse, flanked by flower baskets and filled with the scent of elegant lilies.
The old elven king, with his beautiful princess, and many officials were already waiting by the carpet.
The car stopped on the red carpet, and the escort team completed its mission and retreated to the side, the handsome and dashing, eight-foot-tall escort captain pulled the car door with one hand and gave a military salute with the other.
A bright smile bloomed on the old elf king's face, and with respect and joy in his deep eyes, he hurriedly stepped forward and politely stretched out his right hand to greet the characters in the car.
The beautiful eyes of the person in the car were longing, and he smiled at him, and the bright and moving smile on his face shocked the old king's soul, and he was stunned for a moment before grinning:
"Welcome to the Holy Lord!"
"Thank you, Elven King, for your kindness. ”
The jade hand took the old elf king's thick and old hand and got out of the car, and the holy lord smiled and said. The crisp and sweet voice bluffed the old elf king and hurriedly bowed deeply.
"If you are not well prepared, you still hope for the Holy Lord Haihan. ”
"Where, I'm really flattered that the Elf King is so gracious!"
"Haha!ha!" "Looking at the Snowy Saint Ancestor Bing Qing Yujie, the appearance of the closed moon and the shy flower, the graceful figure, and the noble and unearthly demeanor of the king, the old elf king secretly admired in his heart, and laughed repeatedly: "The Holy Lord is polite, the Holy Lord is coming to our country, it is really a great joy for the people of my elf land, Holy Lord, please!"
The Holy Lord of the Snowy Land walked forward, meeting with the princess and some officials one by one according to etiquette, and the two personal maids with flowery faces and moon looks followed closely behind him, not leaving the left and right.
"Old man, we don't need to be so polite!" said Yingbao, who then stepped out of the car, with a smile.
"That's, that's, Yingtianguan is really getting more and more temperamental. The old elf king smiled.
Yingbao sank his face and said, "You mean that I didn't have a temperament before!" Yingbao said and squinted at the old elf king.
"Oh, don't dare, don't dare," Ying Bao had visited the elven land several times, and the old elf king was very impressed by her, this pretty little girl was young and in an important position, and she spoke methodically and slowly, but she often hit the nail on the head, and she was quite clever and intelligent. Quarreling with her is undoubtedly asking for hardship, the old elf king did not dare to slack off, hurriedly changed the conversation, and said with a smile: "Heavenly official, please!"
"Ha!" Ying Bao looked at the Elf King carefully and said with a smile: "Old Wang, what you said is a lie, what I said is the truth. ”
"What are you talking about?" the old elf king asked hurriedly.
"Your complexion is much better than before!" After saying that, Ying Bao smiled strangely and looked at the old elf king with a mysterious expression.
The old elf king was stunned for a moment, and recently heard that his daughter had run to Shanmei and had caused a big disaster, and now her whereabouts are unknown, and she was sad and depressed, how could her complexion be good? Looking at Yingbao's eyes, he knew that he was careful to be careful, but he was careless and fell into the trap of others. Shaking his head helplessly and smiling bitterly, he pointed at Yingbao with his hand.
"Haha!"
The two tacitly smiled, and let each other chase the Snowy Saint Ancestor.
The first time the Snowy Holy Ancestor visited the elven land, the old elf king had a state banquet, and the scene was unprecedented. However, the two are extremely familiar, because every year when they go to pay tribute to the Great Emperor, they can meet the Holy Ancestor.
After the state banquet, there was naturally a secret conversation. The purpose of the Snowy Domain Holy Ancestor's visit this time The old elf king had long known it, and he was afraid of her in his heart, and he was at a loss this time, if he talked about it well, everything would be fine, if he didn't talk about it well, I was afraid that the elf land would cease to exist.
In a luxuriously decorated VIP hall, the guests and hosts sat down one after another, looking at the face of the Holy Ancestor tepid, although he smiled slightly, a pair of beautiful autumn eyes were extremely bright.
"Hah!Holy Ancestor, I don't know if the Holy Ancestor has come here and instructed him?" the old elf king said tentatively.
"Hmph, this old thing!" the Holy Ancestor smiled slightly, gently picked up the teacup and took a sip, lowered his eyes and said, "There is one thing to ask the Elf King, I hope the Elf King will not refuse!"
As long as he can do it, he will devote all the strength of the whole country to help. The old elf king's face was calm, but his hanging arm was secretly trembling. Expecting that the Snowy Domain Holy Ancestor was saluting first and then soldiering this time, he couldn't help but be even more panicked.
"That's good!" Seeing that there were no outsiders in the hall except for the old king and the princess, the Holy Ancestor was no longer polite, and said with a smile: "Elf King, I guess you have heard about Princess Qin and my apprentice!"
"I know a little bit about it, and I'm still investigating. "The old elf king didn't dare to refuse, because the Snowy Saint Ancestor had already saved him a lot of face by saying so implicitly, and in any case, it was Mo Cong that his daughter went to find in Shanmei, not the elven land where Mo Cong came. Thinking that her daughter not only did that kind of ugly thing that hurt morals, but also caused the Holy Ancestor to break a general, this disaster is really not small.
"So, what is the Elven King going to do with this, is there any of their whereabouts now?" the Holy Ancestor asked.
The meaning of the Holy Ancestor The old elf king couldn't be clearer, where is this inquiry, it is clear that he is here to ask for someone, he was silent for a long time, and when he thought that his precious daughter had really thrown himself into the old face, he felt embarrassed, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely: "Please ask the Holy Lord for some time, I will definitely find them back." ”
"If it's found, the Elf King must notify me. ”
"That's natural," the Elf King glanced at the Holy Ancestor's eyes and said with a smile: "Holy Ancestor, don't worry, Holy Ancestor's apprentice, I will send him back"
The Elf King's face was excited, and before he could finish speaking, the Holy Ancestor asked, "What about Princess Qin?"
"Alas!" The old elf king smiled bitterly: "The Holy Ancestor made fun of me, I actually raised this scourge, it's true"
"The Elven King doesn't have to blame himself. I want to know, how are you going to get rid of her?"
"I," said the old elf king, "I'm going to abolish her martial arts, so that she never wants to go out." ”
The hall was quiet for a long time, and the Snowy Land Saint Ancestor deliberately pondered for a moment when he heard this, and his face looked very embarrassed. After pondering for a long time, he said: "Actually, Princess Qin is very good, I have seen her when she was a child, and there is nothing wrong with pursuing love, it's just"
"Holy Ancestor means" The old elf king seemed to see a glimmer of light, and since he was a child, he invited three masters to teach his daughter her top-level martial arts, and passed on the treasure of the elf clan, the "Demon Suppression Guqin", to her, and placed high hopes on the qin. It was just a momentary angry talk, and if you really do what you say, you really can't bear it. But if you don't do what you say, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Holy Ancestor to explain. Seeing that the Holy Ancestor leaked a trace of air, he hurriedly asked.
"Ah" hesitated for a long time, and the Holy Ancestor looked very embarrassed on his face.
"If the Holy Ancestor has anything to say, you don't have to be polite, just say it. ”
"Then, I said, don't be angry. The Holy Ancestor looked at the Elf King's face and said.
"Hey!" the Elven King waved his hand and said, "How can I be angry, as long as the Holy Ancestor does not blame, I will be satisfied." ”
"Okay, then I'll say it. "The Holy Ancestor still bought a pass.
"Holy Ancestor, please speak!"
"Ha!" Seeing that the old elf king was already anxious, the Holy Ancestor felt that the time was ripe, and said: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with Princess Qin pursuing love, but my apprentice has already made a marriage contract with someone, and I really can't bear to let Princess Qin make a partial room, and besides, it is too insulting to the elf king." ”
"As long as the daughter can live, what concubines are not concubines, and then they can unite with the snowy region, and getting rid of the clutches of the devil is just around the corner, even if they can't get rid of it, at least they can take less offerings, and the people can live a few days of peaceful life. The Elf King secretly calculated in his heart, and after weighing the pros and cons, he hurriedly smiled and said, "As long as the Holy Ancestor has no opinion, I don't care, and I will prepare for the wedding, so okay?"
"No, no, this is really sorry for the Elf King, and it is a great shame for the princess. The Holy Ancestor shook his head again and again. "Ah" The elf king was anxious, opened his mouth twice, and didn't think of anything suitable for a while, and turned his eyes to look at the princess.
Seeing this, Ying Bao said on the side: "Holy Ancestor, don't say that, and the Elf King doesn't need to worry, I think this matter is easy to handle." ”
"Oh, what does the Heavenly Ruler think?" the Elf King asked as if he had seen a savior.
Yingbao said unhurriedly: "I think, this is still up to the opinion of the princess herself, Mo Cong's side we have done the master, I am afraid that the princess herself is unwilling, if the princess herself is willing, Holy Ancestor, Elf King, you don't have to say anything." ”
"Ah, she has no opinion, she must have no opinion!" the Elf King hurriedly exclaimed, his face still full of gratitude.
The master and servant sang and sang and the matter was done, and the elven king was such a precious daughter, and sooner or later she would also be the heir to the throne, so that the elven land would become his ally.
