Chapter 649: Eating the Emperor's Salary and Caring for the Emperor's Worries



Yan An wanted to stop Alice from speaking, "Why are you panicking? I'm just sending you home."

At this moment, an arrow suddenly shot towards them.

It was Lance who did it.

Lu Ren was not surprised that he would launch a sneak attack.

This arrow has many flaws and will not pose any threat to him.

But no one expected that the arrow was not aimed at Lu Ren, or even Yan An, but at Alice who was trembling all over while standing on the city wall.

“Puff——”

It was the sound of a sharp arrow entering the throat.

Alice's pupils suddenly dilated, the fear on her face had not yet completely subsided, a large amount of blood spurted out of her throat, splashing out, dyeing her eyes red, and she fell straight back.

She opened her mouth and tried desperately to breathe, but more blood flowed out of her mouth.

She rolled her eyes, wanting to look at Lu Ren again, but she had stopped breathing.

Lu Ren: ...

Yan An: ...

Aleshi's hand holding the wooden box paused, staring blankly at the fallen figure on the city wall.

No one had ever imagined this situation.

Lance slowly put away the bow with a gentle smile on his lips. No one would have thought that the owner of this smile had just shot and killed his own sister.

Aleshi turned back suddenly: "Why?!"

The warmth in Lance's eyes faded away, and gradually turned cold: "Alice has lost the integrity of a Xili princess, and has become a prisoner of the enemy. Death is her best destination. Living in shame is an insult to the Xili royal family."

"Come back, Alessi, there is no exchange, the wooden box is empty."

It seems that Lance's purpose this time is to shoot Alice, the princess who has lost the face of the Xili royal family.

Aleshi felt cold all over. He knew very well that when their usefulness was exhausted, their fate would be the same as Alice's.

Even my own sister is like this.

Lance smiled and looked up at the tower. "Lu Ren, I have to thank you very much. Alice is a waste. She has brought shame to the Xili royal family. She should have died long ago."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and was about to evacuate with the army.

Lu Ren's eyes darkened slightly.

Yan An glanced at Alice, who survived the torture in the Dali Temple but died at the hands of her own brother.

He whispered, "General, she is dead, the wooden box is empty, what should we do with the plan?"

"It seems that this princess still has to make an appearance." A faint voice came from not far away.

When Lu Ren heard the voice, he looked over and saw Wen Yu, holding up her skirt and stepping onto the city wall. She walked to his side and lowered her eyes to look at the dead Alice.

Lu Ren put his arms around Wen Yu's waist and gently covered her eyes from behind: "Princess, don't look."

Wen Yu took Lu Ren's hand and sighed: "After all, she was once a princess, so bury her properly."

Lance naturally noticed the extra figure on the city wall. He tightened his hand on the horse, his eyes flashed slightly, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he stared at Wen Yu.

Seeing Lu Ren holding her, he sneered, “Pretending.”

"If I had known you were here, I should have offered to trade you for Diyega. What do you think? Consider it?"

Wen Yu looked at Lance and shook her head in disgust: "He killed her own sister. It seems that she has a tendency to domestic violence. I won't consider her."

Lance shrugged, not caring: "The first time Alice saw me, she knew I would kill her. Living is worse than death, and death is also a relief for her."

Wen Yu nodded and changed the subject: "Then why don't you die?"

"..." The curve at the corner of Lance's lips gradually pursed into a straight line, a little stiff, "If you say that, I will be sad too."

"How can sadness be enough? It would be better to die."

"I'm afraid you will be disappointed." Lance covered his chest and expressed himself without any reservation, "My heart is broken, but it won't die, and it's burning more and more fiercely."

Lance tilted his head slightly, "Don't you want Diyega? Come with me, I can give it to you."

Wen Yu was speechless: "The box is empty. Are you burning white paper on the grave to fool the ghosts?"

Seeing that she did not refute the argument of going with him, Lance's smile grew wider. He took out a brocade box from his arms and slowly opened it. Inside was a plant of Diyega.

"As long as you are willing to follow me, this will be yours."

Lu Ren had been standing quietly behind Wen Yu, willing to be a background board with a fierce aura but seemingly harmless, giving her ample space for conversation.

It was only at this moment that he said with a cold expression: "Princess, I disagree."

Yan An immediately said, "I don't agree either!"

A soldier at the side couldn't help but say: "I don't agree either."

It was almost a chain reaction. The soldiers who heard Lance's request expressed their attitudes one by one.

"I don't agree! I'd rather die in battle!"

"I don't agree either!"

"disagree!"

"Princess, think again! You can't go with the enemy!"

Wen Yu looked around, sighed, and was deeply moved.

She turned around on the wall, opened her arms, and hugged herself again, her tone tragic and desolate: "All the soldiers, you eat the emperor's salary! You worry about the emperor! My brother works hard to support me, I have to repay you in some way, and the title of the eldest princess is not for nothing."

Lu Ren: ...

For a moment he couldn't tell whether the princess was serious or not.

If it is true, the attitude seems a bit frivolous, but if it is false, it makes people excited.

Lance laughed loudly: "It seems that you have made up your mind."

Lu Ren frowned: "Princess..."

Wen Yu grabbed Lu Ren's hand, then placed it on her lips and kissed it, calming Lu Ren's restless heart: "Be good."

She said as she looked at Lance and tilted her head, looking like she was making a great sacrifice: "I can't go with you. At most, I'll give you a slap in the face. You only have one chance to choose."

Lance: ...

He thought it was ridiculous: "Is this what you mean by eating the emperor's salary and worrying about the emperor's worries?"

Wen Yu blinked: "You don't understand my brother. I worry too much and he will blame himself. I can't bear to see him blame himself."

Soldiers: ...

It turns out to be the eldest princess...

Yan An: ...

Lu Ren: ...

Lance: ...
