Chapter 614 King's Guards

Lin You was a little surprised by Li Xingtai's invitation.

Because he had already concealed all his aura at this time, he looked no different from an ordinary person to others.

Not only did he treat an ordinary person like him with courtesy, he also came forward to apologize in person. The head of the Li family is quite interesting.

Either he is a good person or he knows how to survive well and will never offend anyone without knowing all the details.

It just so happened that he was planning to check along the way to see if Song Chaoyuan was managing the principality well, so he smiled and replied, "Okay, then I will be disrespectful to refuse."

that's all.

Under the astonished gazes of the servants and guards, Lin You got into an empty carriage at the invitation of Li Xingtai.

Then, with an order, the entire team started moving slowly again, heading towards the capital.

"Brother, why are you so polite to an ordinary person?"

In another carriage, Li Xingrui asked in confusion.

He had just detected Lin You's aura and found that he had no strength at all.

"It's a good relationship." Li Xingtai smiled. "Our trip is of great significance. We should avoid trouble if possible, so as not to get a bad reputation of bullying others by taking advantage of our power and spread it to other forces."

"Brother, you are here again. Haven't you done enough good deeds? And yet you don't get any reward?"

Li Xingrui curled his lips, obviously tired of hearing Li Xingtai's words, and did not comment.

Li Xingtai smiled and said, "It's just a piece of cake anyway. We won't suffer any loss. Let's talk about the next itinerary first. At this speed, we should be able to reach the capital in less than half an hour."

As soon as he heard the word "capital", Li Xingrui, who was sitting casually, suddenly became serious.

He did not forget the purpose of their trip to the capital.

And just as the two were discussing the itinerary.

Lin You, who was sitting in another carriage, was checking various interfaces while looking at the scenery along the way through the window.

Gradually.

A magnificent city wall appeared in sight, and the number of pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages around it gradually increased, all converging towards the huge city gate below the wall and forming rows of teams.

The whole area outside the city was bustling with activity, just like a market.

"Chief, we have arrived at the capital."

At this time, a shout came from the front of Li's team.

Then the entire team slowly came to the outside of the city gate and was inspected by the guards.

"Wow! Is this the capital?"

"What a high city wall! Much higher than our Huayuan City!"

"After a whole day's journey, we finally arrived."

The younger generation of the Li family in the convoy all leaned out their heads, looked at the city wall in front of them with excitement, and exclaimed in amazement one after another.

Lin You also opened the curtains and looked around. The security inside and outside the city wall was pretty good. At least it was well managed without any trouble. He immediately revealed a satisfied smile.

But unexpectedly.

At this time, the guard commander who was leading the team to check the goods in the front of the convoy happened to look over here and saw him sticking his head out of the car.

“That’s it!”

The guard leader's eyes widened instantly, his expression was as if he had seen a ghost, and he even almost dropped the weapon in his hand to the ground in fright.

This abnormal behavior immediately attracted the attention of several guards nearby, who asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Commander? Is there something wrong?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the two brothers Li Xingtai, who were waiting for examination, changed, thinking that something that shouldn't be there was found.

You know.

They spared no expense for today and prepared a large amount of precious materials, hoping to use them to establish relationships in the capital.

If this shipment is detained.

That would definitely be a huge loss for them, and it made them suddenly nervous.

Because they had already inquired that the commander Cui in front of them was a favorite of King Chao Yuan.

If they offended him, it would be equivalent to offending King Chao Yuan, which would almost mean cutting off their chances of developing industries in the capital, and they might even be suppressed.

However.

What they didn't expect was that the imagined scene did not appear.

On the contrary, Commander Cui seemed to be stimulated by something. He suddenly left the team and stumbled towards the back of the Li family team. He soon came to the outside of the carriage where Lin You was.

I took a deep breath and wanted to bow in worship.

"Okay, let's go back."

A calm voice came from inside the car.

Lin You, who had already returned to the car, naturally noticed someone approaching.

After a quick scan, he found that it was the confidant who stood next to Song Chaoyuan when he appointed and dismissed Song Chaoyuan before, and he obviously recognized his identity.

When Commander Cui heard his voice, he was surprised and delighted.

He did not dare to disobey, so after bowing slightly to the carriage, he hurriedly left the team and returned to the city gate.

"Okay, don't check anymore, just let him go!"

He called back all his men who were checking the Li family's goods.

This action immediately made Li Xingtai and his brothers look confused, and they had no idea what was going on.

Instead, Commander Cui walked towards them with a smile on his face.

"I guess you two are the first and second in command of the Li family in Huayuan City, right? Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. I apologize for wasting so much of your time."

"Uh, Commander Cui, what are you talking about? It's us who wasted your time."

Now Li Xingtai and the other man were even more confused. They could not help but glance at the carriage where Lin You was, feeling surprised and doubtful.

What happened just now that caused a figure like Commander Cui to change his attitude 180 degrees, as if he had become a completely different person? Could it be that this young man Lin in the car was not an ordinary person?

But was he the son of some large power? They had just arrived and did not dare to ask too much.

With this doubt, he had no choice but to get back on the carriage and continue driving slowly towards the city amid the shouts.

Until they disappeared into the city gate.

One of Commander Cui's subordinates couldn't help but ask, "Commander, they are just forces from a small town nearby. Why should we be so polite to them?"

Even the other people around cast curious glances, full of confusion.

"What do you know?" Commander Cui glared at them fiercely.

"Do you know who was sitting in the car just now? That's someone our king has to bow to when he sees him!"

"Hiss! Do I have to bow to the king when I see him?!"

"How is this possible!?"

The guards were completely shocked and their eyes widened.

Immediately, someone reacted and opened his mouth in shock: "Could it be..."

"Shh! Silence!"

Commander Cui interrupted him directly.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Then he came over and whispered a few words in their ears, which immediately shocked them so much that they almost fainted.

And at this time.

The Li family's convoy had also passed through the city gate and arrived at the busy main street. Amid the sounds of hawking and hawking, they drove through the street towards the city center.

It seemed that they were not far from the Chaoyuan Palace.

But Li Xingtai and the other man didn't pay much attention to these things at the moment, but were still discussing what had just happened.

"This little brother Lin, I'm afraid he's not a simple person."

Li Xingtai said with a serious look.

I thought they were just ordinary people who gave me a ride on the road, but I didn't expect that there was such a huge power behind them. Even Commander Cui had to be respectful and polite to them.

"Could he be the young master of some powerful force?" Li Xingrui couldn't help but guess.

"It should be correct." Li Xingtai nodded silently. "Commander Cui's strength has reached the ninth level. For him to be so polite, it must be a major force with at least a ninth-level strongman."

"Then why did he come with us into the city?"

"I don't know about that. Since he doesn't want to say more, we don't need to ask more. Maybe we can leave a good impression and establish a relationship with the power behind him, which will be of great benefit to the future development of our Li family."

"That's true."

Li Xingtai nodded in agreement.

that's all.

After some discussion, the two gave up the idea of ​​finding out Lin You's identity.

Then, with the wheels rolling, it drove towards the center of the capital.

It was not until after mid-morning that we finally arrived near the palace, on a busy street, and parked our car next to a shabby courtyard in a corner.

This was the yard they had sent someone to rent in advance.

Although it was a bit shabby, it was the best place they could rent, and at least it was a place to stay.

After all, their family was weak and could not compare with those big forces that had ninth-level or even tenth-level strongmen. It was already very good to have a courtyard near the palace to temporarily live in.

"Okay, let's all get out of the car and fix it up."

Li Xingtai said to the entire convoy.

There is still plenty of time before the founding ceremony starts at noon, which is just enough time for them to settle down and then visit other major forces to build relationships.

After all, a small family like theirs has no way of directly participating in the founding ceremony and meeting the new king.

So the only way to get in is through connections.

That's why they carry so many things.

There were cars and people coming and going all around, and representatives of various forces were everywhere.

There were even quite a few people who looked at them with disdain and snickered, mocking them for living in such a shabby place.

Look at the luxurious and spacious mansions nearby, they are like heaven and earth.

"Why are you so proud? Once I am successfully selected into the Principality Guard, I will trample them all under my feet!"

"That's right! Don't look down on the poor young man!"

The younger generation of the Li family nearby clenched their fists and looked at those who were laughing at them with displeasure.

"Okay, this is not Huayuan City, don't cause trouble."

Li Xingtai sighed, knowing that their Li family was weak and could not compare to those big families.

Therefore, when arriving in this capital city where powerful forces are everywhere, one must be even more cautious and not dare to offend anyone easily.

I hope everything goes well. Alas. Li Xingtai sighed again, then turned around and began to direct the servants and guards to dismantle the goods, while walking towards the carriage where Lin You was.

But at this moment.

There was a sudden commotion on the street in the distance.

A large, well-equipped and powerful team appeared and rushed towards this side at a rapid speed.

There was even a flying unit in the sky, responsible for clearing roadblocks and opening up a straight avenue on the street.

"It's the king's personal guard!"

"Such a big event, is the founding ceremony about to begin?"

"Didn't it say it would start at noon? Why is it suddenly earlier?"

"No! Look at the middle of the team, could that be King Chao Yuan?"

"It seems to be true! Why would King Chao Yuan appear here in person?"

There were cries of surprise on the street, and representatives of various forces stepped aside to make way for the Royal Guards.

The Li family members who had just arrived at their residence were all shocked and excited. They didn't expect to see the king so soon.

Such a big fuss, could they be here to pick up some important person?
