Chapter 234: Nan Xin's welcoming envoy is Yuan Gu
Although he is not very old, he has a strong aura and sounds very oppressive when he speaks.
Even Han Lao Er, who had fought on the battlefield for half his life, had to face the young man.
As expected, there are no idle people in the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes!
"How dare you! Prince Changle stayed in Dongji of his own accord. No one forced him to do so."
"If you don't believe me, you can come in with me and ask him yourself."
Han Laoer glared angrily and shouted loudly.
Yuan Gu's arrogance was finally reduced a lot. After all, he was still on someone else's territory and had to behave himself.
If we anger these crazy people in Nanxin, not only will we not be able to complete the task assigned by His Majesty to bring back Prince Changle and assassinate the king, but he himself will surely die here.
"Don't blame me, Mr. Han. I will go in and take a look myself."
Yuan Gu smiled with a wry smile.
Han Laoer made a "please" gesture to him and invited him into the house.
He walked at the front, and the entire Nanxin delegation followed behind him, obeying his orders.
Han Laoer also saw clearly that this young man was the person they should be most careful of.
However, with such extraordinary courage and ability at such a young age, it seems that Nan Xin still has many cards to play.
Han Laoer was also calculating in his mind.
If the two countries in the southeast really fought, would Dongji, which had just suffered a severe blow from internal strife, be a match for Nanxin?
General Han, Han Xian and Deng Yan'an met them, while Deng Youning and Li Tianzhuo watched in secret.
"I really didn't expect that the envoy sent by Nan Xin to welcome him would be this guy!"
After seeing Yuan Gu's face clearly, Deng Youning was suddenly shocked.
Li Tianzhuo also felt that when he appeared out of nowhere outside the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes yesterday, it was definitely not simply because he wanted to come back to visit his former master.
After all, all of them, the disciples of the Ten Thousand Snake Valley, were children who were deceived and abducted by the Valley Master.
To them, the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes was a hell that tortured them, not a master who taught them skills.
If this is the case, how could everyone who has finally escaped from here come back easily?
Moreover, Yuan Gu did not come back early or late, but came just when the Dongji Group was sending King Si back to his country.
The secret passage of the Liangcheng City Lord’s Mansion also leads directly to the outside of the Ten Thousand Snakes Valley. I wonder what the connection is between the City Lord and the Ten Thousand Snakes Valley?
After the two guests exchanged a few pleasantries, Deng Yan'an ordered someone to bring Si Wang up.
Si Wang had not been in Nanxin for more than half a year, and he did not recognize the welcoming envoy in front of him, Young Marquis Yuan. If he had not recognized Lord Miao, he would not have dared to go with them because he was afraid of death.
"Your Highness, I am sorry that you have suffered so much since I came late to greet you."
It seemed that the king had not yet entered the door. Lord Miao only saw a figure and was busy kneeling down to speak nice words to show his loyalty.
He didn't understand Emperor Nan Xin's thoughts, nor did he know much about the inside story.
According to his inherent thinking, he always felt that the emperor must value His Royal Highness the Prince very much since he was willing to sacrifice three cities and countless tributes, gold and silver to redeem him.
Prince Changle was demoted to a commoner and had been missing for five years. Everyone in the court of Nan Xin knew about it, and the future crown prince could only be chosen from Prince Yi and Prince Si.
Since Emperor Nanxin values King Si so much now, the throne will most likely be his.
Therefore, they all have to behave well on the way to pick up His Highness.
"No need to be polite, I am fine and not dead."
Si Wang smiled stubbornly.
Lord Miao looked up and saw Wang's current appearance. His pupils shook as if he was shocked.
this……
Is this like a king?
Why did you gain so much weight?
Is the food in Dongji so good?
He was not the only one who had this doubt. Other people around him who had known Si Wang also asked the same question.
Yuan Gu also stepped forward and saluted slightly to the King Si. Then, with anger, he questioned Dong Ji:
"Grand Secretary Deng, General Han, I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince was almost lost yesterday and was not found until midnight."
"Are the Dongji people so irresponsible towards our Highness?"
He didn't seem to be here to pick up the king's envoy, but rather to deliberately cause trouble in Dongji.
"Oh, Young Marquis Yuan is really well-informed!"
Deng Yan'an even wanted to give him a thumbs up.
"Last night, this matter was not spread outside. How did you know about it, young marquis?" he asked tentatively.
Yuan Gu felt a little guilty. He couldn't say in front of them that he was the one who shot the arrow that hit Prince Changle last night, right?
Before Xie Miaoqing wanted to save Si Wang, he did look for the former city lord and obtained the map of the city lord's mansion.
Coincidentally, he also knew this map.
Therefore, it is not difficult to infer that Xie Miaoqing would come to the outside of the Ten Thousand Snakes Valley after saving the Queen.
Yesterday during the day, he used the excuse of returning to the Ten Thousand Snake Valley to scout the terrain in advance so that he could ambush and encircle them.
Unexpectedly, the people of Dongji were so smart that they cracked the password of the secret passage in the City Lord's Mansion and followed all the way to the outside of the Ten Thousand Snake Valley.
It also made them dare not act rashly.
Later, seeing the two brothers, King Changle and King Si, struggling downstream, he made up his mind to give it a try and see if he could kill King Si with one arrow.
After all, although Wanshe Valley doesn't do anything human, it teaches martial arts well.
His best skills are martial arts and archery.
Not to mention people, he could even shoot down tiny snakes and insects crawling quickly a hundred meters away with one arrow.
Yuan Gu couldn't answer Deng Yan'an's question, so he could only change the subject and ask:
"By the way, why haven't we seen His Royal Highness Prince Changle?"
Deng Youning and Li Tianzhuo exchanged glances in the dark.
"Want to see?"
Deng Youning asked with concern.
As long as he disagrees, no one dares to force him in front of him.
"All the way back to Yuncheng, we'll see you sooner or later."
"Besides, if we don't follow the delegation, if the Nanxin people want to poison the king again, I'm afraid my cousin won't be able to handle it alone."
Li Tianzhuo analyzed.
He knew he couldn't escape, so he took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and walked out.
"I'll accompany you."
Deng Youning took his hand, interlocked their fingers, and walked out together.
"Oh, so lively?"
"We just went out for a walk and the welcoming envoys came!"
Deng Youning's indifferent voice came.
When Yuan Gu heard her voice, his gloomy and provocative face instantly blossomed.
"Senior sister?"
He turned around suddenly and saw not only Deng Youning's questioning and hostile face, but also her and Li Tianzhuo's hands interlocked.
The clenched hands, reflected in his pupils, were like a thorn piercing his heart.
It turned out that what the maid and the servant said yesterday was true. Senior sister had already been engaged to someone else.
Moreover, that man is Nan Xin's future true crown prince, the Sixth Prince, Prince Changle.
In fact, when he was chasing Si Wang last night, he vaguely recognized Li Tianzhuo, but he had been deceiving himself.
"Junior Brother Yuan?"
"I never thought that you were the welcoming envoy sent by Nan Xin!"
Deng Youning raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of majesty.
"Junior brother, I didn't expect that you, Senior Sister, are actually the Princess of Dongji Zhenguo!"
The light in Yuan Gu's eyes gradually dimmed.
