Chapter 907: A Magnificent New Year (7)
The attempt to create an incident in the downtown area and attack the convoy of the Alliance Ambassador was a complete failure. Gongsun Yi's personal guards originally planned to shoot condescendingly into the middle of the road in the tavern, and then take the opportunity to flee after the surrounding crowd was in chaos, and they would also deliberately leave pre-prepared evidence in the tavern to blame Lin Feiyun, who lived nearby.
What a perfect reason for an old general who was resentful of the "Alliance's whistleblowers" that caused many of his men to be killed by demons in battle, and used what little power he had to take revenge on him - what a perfect reason, isn't it?
After listening to the explanation of the captain who simply shook out everything he knew when he saw that the operation failed, Lin Feiyun couldn't help but laugh angrily: "Oh, after doing it for a long time, do you plan to put it down to me?"
"Actually, there are a few other people besides you. The captain had already withdrawn the pistol that had been quietly pointed at the old general, but he was still following him, "Most of them are capable people who were specially promoted when His Majesty changed his style after returning from the teleportation array. At first, I thought His Majesty was going to carry out another big purge, but now that I think about it, something seems to be wrong......"
Deliberately pretending to be a corporal of Lixian, recruiting capable talents everywhere in the name of national disaster, waiting for all the elites from all walks of life to surface, and then launching that hellish counteroffensive to tell the devil the plan, resulting in a crushing defeat of the whole army; when the alliance stretched out the last straw to the Ming Empire, it obstructed it and planned to blame these elites to eradicate them collectively, thus cutting off all hope of the Ming Empire. Thinking about this, Lin Feiyun only felt that his brain couldn't help but surge with blood, and he almost almost scolded.
But the old general finally managed to hold back. Because he knew that it was useless to just stand still and scold the street, and that something had to be done.
"Today, because we are preparing to welcome the ambassadors of the alliance, all the civil and military officials have gathered in the palace, and they can not only point out the suspicious behavior of Gongsun Yi in public. If necessary, you can also use the power of the alliance, it is a good opportunity that you must not miss!" Lin Feiyun made up his mind and clenched his fists and said, "I'm going to the palace. β
Lin Feiyun said this, undoubtedly planning to force Gongsun Yi into the palace, and the captain who followed him was immediately shocked when he heard this: "Please wait, old general, this is absolutely unacceptable! Where is there anyone who faces the emperor in front of the envoys of other countries to force the palace, let alone rely on the strength of the other party? What if a person is not handled properly and is annexed by the other party or forced to be attached to the other party?"
"I don't care about that anymore. Lin Feiyun made a firm statement categorically. "Even if it becomes someone else's vassal country, or even simply annexed by the other party, it is better than being betrayed to the demon by Gongsun Yi! At the very least, the alliance will give us the strictest as human beings!"
"You're right. The captain pondered for a while and nodded decisively. "His Majesty the Emperor has been acting strangely lately, and if he is really having an affair with a demon, then I am willing to help you. But old general, you have now been removed from office. You can't enter the palace at all?"
"About this. I have my own way. β
ββββββββββββββββββββI have a way to divide the lineββββββββββββββββ
Sophia didn't know that she was almost attacked by a cold gun on the streets of the downtown area just now, and she didn't know that these gunmen were killed by a black-haired boy and his best childhood sweetheart. In fact, due to the failure of Grana and Yu Chimu's previous attempt to infiltrate Baoqing City to collect information, Alicia, who had learned her lesson, decisively selected people of Eastern descent or people who looked like each other from the adventurer team this time, and sent them into Baoqing City in several batches to ensure Sophia's safety in the city on the day of her mission.
It turns out that the little queen was quite right to do so.
Gongsun Yi arranged two attacks, but as he did not expect the Coalition to infiltrate, the Assassins wanted to deliberately let some of them see - because they were trying to make false testimony - and were soon discovered by the adventurers who had quietly followed the convoy along the way, and then ......
There is no then.
But what makes Sophia feel strange. When leaving the crowded avenue and turning to Gongsun Yi's temporary palace, the convoy suddenly stopped. What's even more strange is that Wei Chimu, who is the head of the Guards Knights, did not appear immediately. It took a long time before he rode from the back of the group to the outside of the carriage.
"Could it be that a girl in the back suddenly ran into the road in pursuit of her naughty brother or sister, and was hit and injured, and you were apologizing to someone and accosting her, so you were late?" Sophia said with a folding fan and looked out the car window.
Yu Chimu glanced at Granna, who was sitting opposite the pink princess with an indifferent face, and sneered: "You, you are laughing, Your Royal Highness the Princess." Someone did get knocked down just now, but I didn't help the girl, but the old man. β
"Nani!?" Pink Princess's eyes widened in astonishment when she heard this, "You actually dare to help the old man who fell?
β...... Your Highness, your lines are playing all kinds of crossings and strings, and this is not the Celestial Empire on the Blue Star, right?"
Sophia gorgeously ignored Wei Chimu's complaints, and quietly reverted to a cold and noble elegant image and said, "Don't mention this first. Uncle Billy, after I go in with Granna, the task of investigating Gongsun Yi will be handed over to you. We'll try to spy on that guy as much as we can, but it's up to you to find the flaws. β
"Of course. While speaking, the team had already arrived at the door of the luxurious mansion that Alicia and the others had visited last time, and Yu Chimu nodded slightly to the two girls and said, "We have arrived, please get out of the car." β
Yu Chimu turned over and pulled the horse to open the car door, but Granna, who got out of the car first, did not touch his outstretched hand, nor did she help Sophia behind, and threw the pink princess to the other party.
Although Sophia felt a little strange, she didn't dig deeper. She slowly stepped out of the carriage with the hem of her skirt in one hand and the palm of Yu Chi Mu in the other, and looked at the mansion in front of her indifferently.
No doubt. Princess Pink is a peerless beauty that people can't help but admire, and as soon as she appears, she arouses the unison of the Ming Empire officials who stand at the door to greet her. But Sophia didn't care about this, but walked to the door of the mansion gracefully and unhurriedly, escorted by Grana and others behind her. He opened the folding fan and half-hid his face and coughed lightly.
It was only at this time that the officials, who had fallen into a state of collective petrification, suddenly came to their senses and hurriedly sent people to greet them.
Locklip had been following Sophia, and he and his photography team were a deterrent to the Ming Empire - even though Gongsun Yi had completely ignored this deterrence and intended to turn his face directly. This magic prop, which is directly broadcast live to the entire territory of the Western Continent, can faithfully record all the actions of the Ming Empire, and also makes the other party dare not make any rude actions openly.
But Elysia also knew that if Gongsun Yi made up her mind to arrest Sophia in front of everyone in the Western Continent to do [beep-] and [beep-] and [beep-] things, this camera machine would not be able to give the pink princess protection in the true sense. But it doesn't matter, the undisciplined little queen rescued Sophia when the Ming Empire was about to turn around, and she was able to get the opportunity to give Imrith a bath, and successfully bribed the creator god of Drowlivan. So, nothing to worry about.
Yes, the blonde girl just sold her baby sister gorgeously for the sake of Himeyou.
More than 200 people escorting Sophia were arranged to rest in the room at the door. And the pink princess led a dozen people to the deepest part of the mansion under the leadership of the officials of the Ming Empire. There was no conversation between the two sides along the way, and although she was an out-and-out beauty in front of her, the alliance she represented had a bad reputation in the propaganda of the Ming Empire, so the atmosphere looked a little awkward.
In a long silence. Sophia finally arrived at the main hall where Gongsun Yi was. Met the Emperor whom Elysia suspected was problematic.
"Welcome, Imperial Princess of the Western Continent Alliance. Gongsun Yi, who was sitting on the chair, casually gestured to the seat that had been prepared for the pink princess next to him, "I am Gongsun Yi, the emperor of the Ming Empire. It's been hard to come from afar, so please sit down and talk. β
Sophia calmed down her nervousness without a trace, sat down with her skirt wiped and said, "Thank you." Your Majesty the Emperor, my name is Sophia Shetis Hartlund, and I am a princess of the Roland Empire, a member of the Western Continent Alliance. This time I came as an emissary of the alliance to ......"
"I'm sorry, but I have a more pressing question here. Gongsun Yi faintly raised his hand and interrupted Sophia's words. "The alliance secretly spied on the secrets of our army and then reported them to the demons, which ultimately led to the failure of our Ming Empire's most critical counterattack operation. Do you have any good explanation for this?"
Sophia, who has always paid attention to maintaining an elegant image, couldn't help frowning when she heard this: "Your Majesty the Emperor, this is completely framed. Our alliance was to help the Ming Empire, which was also Zhuo Erliwen, who had come to the Eastern Continent from thousands of miles away, and even did not hesitate to mobilize the power of the people because of the lack of troops. That's a chilling statement. β
Gongsun Yi squinted his eyes at Locklip and his photography team twice, and then pursed his lips disapprerovingly: "Since that's the case, then we don't have anything to say." β
As soon as these words came out, Rao is standing beside the emperor, who looked like the prime minister, couldn't help but be stunned: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what did you just say?"
"It's nothing, I originally wanted to create an incident to provoke the conflict between the Ming Empire and the alliance, and wait until the two sides start a conflict before closing the net. Now it seems that it must be brought forward. Gongsun Yi rubbed his head a little troubled and said, "It's really worthy of the strong opponent mentioned by Lord Ulrik, I and Lord Ulrike have been so perfectly coordinated by that girl that girl has been forced into the current situation, and even seized the opportunity to get rid of the portal." She should have been kept under the pretext of political marriage, why didn't Lin Feiyun's old guy do it? No matter what, anyway, the net has been laid out, and no matter how hard you struggle, it's useless. β
Among the guards who followed Sophia into the hall walked out quickly, a knight shrouded in armor hurriedly took off his helmet and revealed his face, it was Lin Feiyun who had just been named by the emperor. I saw the old general's eyes wide open angrily, and he pointed at the other party with a full anger and shouted: "Gongsun Yi, do you really plan to completely destroy the Ming Empire!?"
A strange voice with a shrill voice immediately came from next to Gongsun Yi: "Bold! Lin Feiyun, you have to find out your identity." Now you are no longer the general who commands the army, and it is disrespectful to point so blatantly at Your Majesty and insult you. Are you trying to rebel!?"
[Ahhh Sure enough, it appeared. This kind of special character who will never lack a role in any costume court drama is really more loyal than a loyal dog, and he barks there without even figuring out what the current situation is. γ
Lin Feiyun didn't even look at the other party, he stared at the emperor and continued to ask, "Please give it to me, no." Give a reasonable explanation to everyone in the world, including the soldiers who died unjustly under the demon's forbidden spell! Why did you sell your country and even the throne?"
Gongsun Yi leaned lazily back in his chair and looked at the people in front of him with a mocking face and said, "It's not because you are so incompetent, you have been constantly retreating backwards since the demon invasion, so I was forced to flee here before I lost my country. As a result, through the spatial passage, I found that it was not the Western Continent that had not yet been invaded by demons as legendary, but the damned Tyranmere. I was soon greeted by the demons with a not-so-friendly welcome, but it was okay. As soon as they explained who I was, they stopped attacking. β
"And you made a deal with those batwings?" said Granna, who was standing next to Sophia, "What exactly?"
A little strangely, he glanced at this guard girl who spoke without permission, and Gongsun Yi, who was in the middle of the battle, didn't care about it. With an excited and fanatical look on his face, he raised his voice and said, "It's a long lifespan! As long as I help them succeed in obtaining the Eastern Continent, Lord Ulrik, the king of the demon race, will grant me a lifespan almost equal to that of a demon, isn't that enough? All that is to be paid is a country that will perish sooner or later. Why not?"
Grana couldn't help but show an angry expression: "Hell, can you still be considered an emperor like this!?"
"Of course I am an emperor. Gongsun Yi stroked the beard on his lips and smiled evilly, "Even if the Eastern Continent is completely dominated by demons and all the inhabitants on it are killed and turned into undead, I am still the master of this land!"
Lin Feiyun also shouted angrily: "Don't laugh, do you think we will continue to let you do nonsense!? Not to mention that you also exposed your own truth in front of everyone?"
"The reason why I will expose the old man is because I have already laid out all the nets, haven't I said it before?" Gongsun Yi said with a mocking look at the veteran who had been the most relied on under his command, "General Lin." Do you really think I'm going to jump out like this without doing anything? That's not arrogant, that's a second disease. β
The voice did not fall. The soldiers in the hall who were the emperor's guards suddenly appeared one after another, and they were all disguised as demons!
Grana immediately took out her dagger and went straight to Gongsun Yi, but the thief girl quickly stopped in confusion: "Magic stand-in?"
"How is it, isn't it very clever?" Gongsun Yi, who was reclining in a chair, maintained a lazy posture and continued to laugh, "This is a law-level stand-in that a demon master cast on me, it's a shame that you recognized it before you even touched it." Well, if you are willing to surrender here, I can promise to take your life and that beautiful princess, and then put you together in the Hou (Divine Beast) Palace to do something happy every day. β
"I'm sorry, I already have a boy I like, so I don't plan to join your faint queen (divine beast) palace. Grana jumped backwards one after another and quickly retreated in front of Sophia, "And you will never let your ambition succeed!"
Wei Chi Mu, who was hiding in Sophia's escort, suddenly trembled in his heart for no reason, but he also knew that now was not the time to think about these things, so he was busy and his teammates formed a circle to protect Sophia in the middle.
"Are you kidding me, Gongsun Yi?" In the hall that was in a lot of trouble because of the sudden appearance of demons, only Lin Feiyun was the only one among the many officials of the Ming Empire who remained calm, "With just these demons, you want to wipe us all out?"
"You're the one who really laughs, old general. Gongsun Yi casually pointed to the outside of the hall and said, "Although it failed to cause a conflict with the alliance, the army is now like a decaying old tree, and it will fall with a little poke twice." You should remember the spy attack that caused a lot of noise in Baoqing City before, what if I also arranged spies in the army? Besides, have you really double-checked everyone in Baoqing City?"
A large amount of cold sweat instantly oozed from Lin Feiyun's back: "That is, even so, there are more than 30,000 adventurers from the Western Continent outside the city, you can ask them for help if necessary......"
"Tsk, tsk, I'm afraid it's hard to protect themselves. Gongsun Yi raised his index finger and shook his lips lightly, "Do you remember how that giant triangular dinosaur suddenly disappeared from the outskirts of Baoqing City? If the demonic army has been in a state of recuperation for so long, and the lack of movement is just an illusion on the surface, just waiting for the opportunity to teleport over and attack, what will the so-called alliance do?" (To be continued......)
