"This must be...should be...not..."
Cao Xiong subconsciously wanted to deny it, but he still felt guilty and sweat began to form on his forehead... This bastard must not be true.
At this moment, there was a sudden loud blast of gongs and horns, followed by a shout, "The Prince of Qi has arrived. All the unauthorized persons, disperse, disperse, disperse!"
As they were talking, the sound of horse hooves could be heard, and a group of people were approaching. Everyone's face changed slightly, and Zhao Xin's face was even gloomier.
These people are all wearing the same Jinyiwei flying fish uniforms... My Jinyiwei actually ran to clear the way for the Prince of Qi?
"Sir, this is not our Jinyiwei. Their clothes are different."
Cao Xiong saw that Zhao Xin had an ugly expression on his face, and he was shocked and angry.
But if you don't look carefully, you won't notice it.
A closer look immediately revealed the difference. The Feiyu uniforms worn by the imperial guards were much simpler and more elegant, while the Feiyu uniforms worn by the guards in front of him were more gorgeous. However, because they were too gorgeous, they looked more like theatrical costumes than official uniforms.
In fact, Zhao Xin also saw it at this time, but his expression did not get better.
It's very simple. Since these people are not the imperial guards, they must be the private guards appointed by the King of Qi.
Even the Jinyiwei dared to do it privately. It would be a miracle if Zhao Xin could look happy.
However, although his face was gloomy, he did not move and slowly retreated with the retreating crowd.
But when the eunuch saw the arrival of these imperial guards, he felt as if his backbone had arrived.
He hurried forward, grabbed the leader of the Ti cavalry by the bridle of his horse and said, "Lord Lan, you've arrived just in time. These people are disrespectful to His Majesty the Prince of Qi. Come and capture them all with us."
"Someone actually dared to disrespect His Highness and seek death!"
The Tiqi leader, who was sitting upright on his horse, had a gloomy expression on his face.
But when he turned around, he happened to see the strong man. His pupils shrank slightly, and his expression turned cold and alert.
"Jiang Gonglan, are you going to make an enemy of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi?"
It seems that the two of them actually recognized each other.
When everyone present heard the strong man's name, some were slightly surprised, while others had obviously recognized him already.
After all, this person's big sword is still very recognizable.
When Zhao Xin heard this name, he had a vague impression of it, and suddenly remembered that this person was vaguely mentioned in the original book.
He just couldn't remember the specific details.
After all, the original work was just one of the many novels Zhao Xin had read in his previous life, so it was impossible for him to remember every plot and character clearly.
It seems vaguely that he is a background character who has not officially appeared, or a special character or something.
But this just shows that this person must be no ordinary person.
Think about it, in any fictional world, how many of the background characters are just ordinary people?
"You can't take me down!"
The sturdy Jiang Gonglan was straightforward, grinning without beating around the bush. "But I'm only here on my master's orders to recover Emperor Yu's treasure. I have no intention of fighting with you."
After saying that, he turned around and retreated calmly.
However, when he mentioned the treasure of Emperor Yu, there was an obvious commotion among the people around him, and many people's eyes flickered.
Zhao Xin and others could clearly feel that the atmosphere outside the city gate had changed slightly.
"Emperor Yu's treasure? Emperor Yu's treasure actually appeared in this Great Desolate City?"
Cao Xiong, Nan Luoying and others looked at Zhao Xin in surprise. They had no idea what the purpose of Zhao Xin's trip was.
Why did he suddenly go on a secret tour, and rush all the way, obviously with a purpose?
When they heard the words "Emperor Yu's Treasure", they all agreed that the emperor must have come here for this.
Although I still think it is unwise for the emperor to come here in person for this matter, it would be okay to send Yu Huatian, Cao Xiong, or Li Cunxiao for this matter. It is a bit risky to come here in person.
But it is understandable. After all, if it is really the legendary treasure of Emperor Yu, it is indeed of great importance.
But they didn't know that if Zhao Xin hadn't been short of 130 points of luck, he wouldn't have even thought of this.
Because as far as he knew, although the so-called treasure of Emperor Yu was exaggerated in the original book, it seemed that apart from adding a little luck to the Nine Provinces, it seemed to have more symbolic significance than practical significance.
In fact, this time, he really made a mistake, because he forgot one thing. The original novel actually has two sequels, and he has a habit, or prejudice, of reading books, which is that he always thinks that the so-called sequels are all crap, so he didn't read them at all.
Of course, no one knows that the treasure of Emperor Yu is actually a huge foreshadowing in the original work, which was not expanded at all in the previous work.
Of course, those were all things that happened later. Coming back to the present, Zhao Xin didn't explain much, but just nodded and said "hmm".
However, Li Cunxiao and Xiao Cui, one had no idea what Emperor Yu's treasure was, and the other only vaguely knew some legends.
The two dared not question Zhao Xin any further. The former nudged Cao Xiong, while the latter tugged at Nan Luoying. They whispered in unison, "Lord Cao, what is the treasure of Emperor Yu?"
After saying that, the two of them couldn't help but look at each other.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh quietly.
Just as he was about to explain, something unexpected happened on the scene. It turned out that after the Ti cavalry, a large group of troops led by Zhao Hu, the prince of Qi, also arrived.
From a distance, you can see rows of ceremonial guards, the vocal music, the wooo-woo-wah sound, the trumpets deafening the sky, the bang-bang-bang, and the gongs roaring.
Leading the way were thirty-six ladies holding palace lanterns, followed by golden gourds, axes, flags, and umbrellas arranged in order, and a large group of soldiers gathered around them. At a glance, the scene looked like there were no less than a thousand people.
Zhao Xin and his companions all looked gloomy upon seeing this.
