Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe were in the crowd, watching the team slowly approaching, and they also felt the tension of the people.

Looking at each other, Huo Changhe could understand Yan Ruyu's meaning even though he was wearing a mask, and nodded slightly.

Huo Changhe walked slowly forward and came to the end of the team led by Governor Cao.

During this trip, Governor Cao took Cui Chong with him on one side of the carriage, and two other capable agents escorted him behind.

They are all confidants of Governor Cao and are also familiar with Huo Changhe.

Huo Changhe patted one of them on the shoulder. The constable turned around suddenly and was startled to see a masked man.

Holding the hilt of the knife, he was about to speak when Huo Changhe lifted his mask.

"king……"

Huo Changhe whispered, "Don't make it public."

"My lord, what are your orders?"

"Take my king's token." Huo Changhe gave him his waistband. "Go through other city gates and go to the camp to find Ambassador Li Cheng and ask him to send people to lead troops."

After that, she whispered in his ear for a while.

"Remember?"

The detective's heart was beating wildly and his blood was a little hot. He nodded vigorously: "I remember."

"Well, go quickly and come back quickly."

"Yes!" Without further ado, the constable took his badge, pulled his horse out of the crowd, and quietly headed towards another city gate.

Huo Changhe returned to Yan Ruyu: "The arrangements have been made."

Yan Ruyu glanced outside: "He looks like he is going to surrender when he is this big."

"So, I suspect that their marriage is for another purpose, and it is definitely not what they say on the surface."

Huo Changhe whispered softly: "In the past two years, Dacheng's military strength is indeed not as good as before, but it is not necessary to use marriage to seek peace. The two countries are in peace with each other, and we will not take the initiative to provoke them, so this move is completely unnecessary."

Yan Ruyu looked at the approaching team outside: "Could it be that you really plan to use the name of marriage to do something evil to Youcheng?"

"Three thousand people may seem like a lot, but if we really start a war, we won't get any benefits."

"No, they probably don't have their ambitions in Youcheng," Huo Changhe said. "Although Youcheng and Shencheng are both large cities in the northwest, Youcheng is inferior to Shencheng in all aspects, such as geographical location, commerce and trade, etc. If they are interested, , we should also use our brains on Shen Cheng.”

"That's strange. What do they want to do?" Yan Ruyu was confused.

"Let's see. If there is any purpose, no matter how deep it is hidden, it will eventually be exposed." Huo Changhe gently pressed Yan Ruyu's shoulders, "The two sides will compete to see who is more patient."

"Whether it's the use of troops or strategies."

Yan Ruyu nodded slowly: "What the prince said is true."

At the outer gate of the city, the team stopped, and the cavalryman just stepped out of the team again, raising his voice and asking: "Where is Her Royal Highness?"

Cui Chong sat on the horse and turned his head to look at the carriage of the ninth princess in the team.

"your Highness…… "

Before he finished speaking, the cavalryman interrupted loudly: "Who are you? Where is the governor in the city?"

Cui Chong turned around, held the reins, and stood straight: "Who are you?"

"As I said just now, I am the commander of the honor guard!"

Cui Chong asked again: "Is he the supreme leader?"

The cavalryman hesitated for a moment. Cui Chong was also a smart man, and he knew from this that he was not.

Cui Chong sneered: "You are guests from afar. Her Royal Highness Princess has been staying in my city for a few days. You came so late and asked the governor of my city instead of asking how Her Royal Highness Princess is doing."

"As a servant, you don't care about your master's safety; as a guest, you don't know how to respect the master as a guest. No wonder, you are just a commander, not the supreme leader."

"Our Youcheng is a big border city. It is very important. The governor is naturally here, but not everyone can see it. You, who was appointed as a temporary commander before leaving, have no rank or rank, and you are worthy of being threatened on a horse. Want to see our governor?"

"absurd!"

Every word Cui Chong wrote was clear, and it was like steel balls hitting the ground, leaving a hole with each word.

The common people were shocked when they heard this, and their nervousness just now receded a little.

Governor Cao was listening in the carriage and wanted to rush out to applaud and pat Cui Chong on the shoulder.

So well said! As expected of his confidant!

The cavalryman on the other side said angrily: "How dare you be rude to me?"

Cui Chong said with a smile: "We Lichao people are the most polite, but we are not reasonable to everyone. If others respect us, we will naturally treat them with courtesy. If not, then there is no need to be polite."

Someone in the crowd pinched his throat and said, "That's right!"

"Master Cui said it well."

The cheers came one after another, boosting morale.

Cui Chong straightened his back again, feeling that this was his most glorious moment.

The cavalryman on the other side breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at this side angrily, and asked loudly: "Where is my princess?"

Cui Chong tilted his head, tightened the reins, turned the horse's head, and walked back to Governor Cao's carriage.

Governor Cao said in the carriage: "Princess, please get off the carriage."

"Yes."

Cui Chong urged his horse to the side of the carriage at the back and said with a bow, "Your Highness, your guard of honor has arrived. Please get off the carriage."

The maid lifted the curtain and glared at Cui Chong: "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of asking the princess to get out of the car?"

She said, glancing forward: "Let Governor Cao come!"

Cui Chong was not annoyed: "Your Highness, it is your people who want to see you. If you don't want to see them, then I will go and tell them."

He was really about to leave, and the maid was furious: "How dare you!"

Princess Ninth said softly: "Let the coachman drive the carriage outside the city."

Cui Chong waved to the coachman, who pulled the carriage out of the team and took it outside the city.

The wheels rolled, there was no sound, and the carriage stopped in the front.

Cui Chong also followed on the side of the car: "The princess is here, come up and pay homage."

After riding on the opposite side, urge the horse to come over, turn over and dismount.

The maid swung the car curtain heavily, jumped out of the car, glanced at the cavalry, then looked at the team not far away, then turned around and helped the ninth princess out of the car.

The cavalryman quickly saluted: "Greetings to the princess."

The Ninth Princess looked up at the team. The flags were fluttering and the momentum was overwhelming.

"I'm glad you're here. Is everything going well?"

"Return to your highness, everything went well."

At this time, Governor Cao slowly got out of the car, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard all the way and came a long way. I am not here to welcome you."

The cavalryman stood up and cupped his hands: "This is..."

"This is my governor," Cui Chong said from the side.

"Sir Governor," the cavalryman said with an unhappy look, "Her Highness is the most favored princess of Dacheng. She has come here to marry for the sake of friendship between our two countries and for the sake of the people. Sir Governor, this is not appropriate, is it?"

Governor Cao looked at him, his smile did not diminish, but his eyes were colder: "What's wrong with me? Your Royal Highness is in the city. I am not neglecting you for a day. No one is disrespectful in the post house. Everything is arranged properly."

"You are just a nobody, and you come here to criticize me. Isn't that inappropriate?"

"An unknown person?" the cavalryman laughed angrily, "I am the commander of the ceremonial guard for Emperor Dacheng's personal conferment!"

"What's your name?" Governor Cao asked.

"Zhang Chuang."

"I've never heard of it," Governor Cao said simply, "Those who haven't heard of it are just unknown people."
