After being forced to marry an enemy tyrant

There is a small pile of spiritual fruits, piled on the generous palm, as bright and attractive as rubies.

Chang Ling glanced at it and asked, "Where did you pick it?"

Zhao Yan showed off the look of the big baby: "It's that dense forest, on the way I took you out. I saw that this fruit is beautiful and pleasing, and I think it should taste good, so I picked a handful and brought it back for you to taste." taste."

Chang Ling: "..."

Chang Ling: "Do you know what kind of fruit this is?"

"what?"

Zhaoyan felt something bad in his heart.

"Put sausage fruit."

Chang Ling glanced at him again, looking at the big fool's expression.

Zhaoyan: "..."

Although he didn't study things like spirit grass and spirit fruit, he just picked a handful because he thought that the little thing liked to eat spirit fruit, but the name "piercing intestine fruit" would not be a good thing at first sight.

He failed to please, and turned into a joke, no matter how thick-skinned Zhaoyan was, he couldn't hold back, threw the handful of fruit in a dull mood, and said: "Oh, isn't your Qingqiu Wuhua Tianbao rich in spirit fruits? Why do you still have such fruit? poison."

The tail of Chang Ling's eyes slightly curled up, and he retorted seriously: "It's not just Qingqiu, it's common sense that fruits in the wild should not be picked indiscriminately, let alone in a spiritual realm full of monsters."

"Okay, I have been taught."

Zhao Yan couldn't help reaching out, scratching the nose of the little thing, and said: "Then what should I do now, I have this food on me. If I knew it, I would have packed some hot food for you outside."

Chang Ling thought for a while and said, "Why don't we go pick the fruit now."

"Picking fruit?"

"Yeah." Chang Ling nodded: "There is a loquat tree in the palace, and the loquat fruit is delicious."

A moment later, Zhaoyan led Chang Ling to avoid the guards, left the Shouyang Palace, and came to the place Chang Ling said.

This is a rather gorgeous palace garden, and indeed there is a loquat tree growing in the courtyard, with luxuriant branches and leaves, the pavilion is like a cover, obviously it has been around for some years.The yellow, orange and orange pigeon egg-sized fruits are decorated among the faint green leaves, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Zhaoyan looked at the three characters "Ehuang Palace" on the gate of the palace, and asked, "Where is this?"

Chang Ling said: "The residence of the queens of all ages."

Zhao Yan vaguely understood something, did not ask further, and said with a smile: "I will go up and pick it for you, you wait below."

He was strong and agile, and with one move, he darted up the tree trunk like a black bird. After a few breaths, he picked a bag full of loquat fruits.

The long spirit has been waiting obediently under the tree with his head up, watching him move around among the trunks, picking the big ones, and when he comes down, he takes the fruits to the lake to wash them carefully, and puts them in the courtyard. stone table.

The two sat down on the stone bench facing each other.

Zhaoyan saw that Little Thing was holding a fruit in each of his left and right hands, eating it earnestly and sweetly, like a little hamster, and asked a little funny, "Is it delicious?"

Chang Ling nodded: "Eat well. Why don't you eat?"

"I'm not hungry, I watch you eat."

Chang Ling wasn't polite to him either, so he gnawed on them one by one.

The bright moon is like a hook, the breeze is cool, and the palace lanterns under the eaves in the distance emit a soft halo, everything is so quiet and beautiful.Zhaoyan felt in a trance, how wonderful it would be if time could stop at this moment forever.

He used to be busy conquering people's hearts and conquering cities and lands, and he never experienced the feeling of "the years are quiet and good, and a lifetime is a couple".At this moment, it is a real taste of the marrow.

Chang Ling ate half of it, and kept half of it. He put the rest in his spirit pouch and kept it carefully, so that he could eat it slowly later.

Seeing this, Zhao Yan smiled and said: "It's just a few fruits, you need such a treasure, if you like it, I will pick and eat it for you every day from now on. Well, why don't I pick some more for you?"

Chang Ling shook his head and said, "Enough."

The two left Ehuang Palace and walked back in a leisurely way. Neither of them spoke, obviously enjoying the rare silence.In this season, the residual cold of winter has completely dissipated, and the heat and heat have not yet come. The night breeze blows gently over the top of the hair, which is the coolest and most suitable time for walking.

Chang Ling hadn't recovered from his serious injury, so he still wore a cloak outside just to be on the safe side.The cuffs of the two were blown lightly by the wind, and they were about to separate, Zhao Yan slightly hooked the corner of his lips, but took the opportunity to put his hand into Changling's blue cuff, and grabbed the young Yubai Wenruan. finger.

Chang Ling struggled, but did not break away, and said: "Aren't you hot?"

Zhaoyan raised his eyebrows, and replied solemnly: "It's not hot, I like it."

The two walked back to the gate of Shouyang Hall, Chang Ling said: "You go back, I can go in by myself."

Zhao Yan suddenly said: "Don't move."

Chang Ling's eyes widened in bewilderment.

Zhaoyan has already leaned over, grasping the little thing's waist in a familiar way, ready to kiss him.

"Your Majesty is really in a good mood. He didn't sleep most of the night and ran around in my palace in Qingqiu."

A chilling voice suddenly sounded in the night.

Holding a long sword in his hand, Xiyun stood on the stone steps of Shouyang Hall like a tall and straight green pine, his eyes were as sharp as a sword, staring straight at Zhaoyan through the palace gate.

Below the steps, led by Wei Feng, three rows of soldiers knelt silently.

Chang Ling quickly withdrew his hand from Zhao Yan's hand, and said, "I asked him to come here, don't make things difficult for him."

"Qingluan."

Xiyun didn't answer the words, and raised his voice to call out.

Qingluan came out of the palace neatly, her eyes were red, as if she had just cried.

Xi Yun said: "Bring the young master in."

Qingluan was surprised and delighted, and then saw Chang Ling standing outside the palace gate, hurriedly walked over, when he got closer and saw Zhao Yan beside Chang Ling, his eyebrows twitched fiercely.

"Where did the young master go, I don't know how to tell the servant, but the servant is very anxious."

As Qingluan said, her eyes turned red again.

Chang Ling said in shame, "I'm sorry."

How could Qingluan bear this, she burst into tears and smiled, and said: "It doesn't matter, as long as the young master is fine. The young master has not recovered from his serious injury, so don't run around anymore, go back to rest with the servant."

Chang Ling nodded, glanced at Zhaoyan, then at Xiyun who was standing on the steps like a door god, and blinked, as if you were asking for blessings.

Zhaoyan laughed, and said warmly: "Go back and sleep well, I can handle it."

Knowing what he said, Chang Ling had already made up his mind, so he went back with Qingluan in peace.

The two people in the court met their eyes again.

Xi Yun said coldly: "You and I have an agreement first, since your lord does not keep the agreement, don't blame me for breaking the agreement."

Zhaoyan smiled unhurriedly and asked, "When did I break the contract?"

Xiyun frowned, surprised at this person's cheekiness, and snorted: "You sneaked into the palace in the middle of the night and abducted the young master of the fox clan out of the palace without your permission, isn't that considered a breach of contract?"

"Abduction?"

Zhao Yan smiled and said: "I just took him to pick some fruit in the palace because he saw that the little thing was hungry and no one prepared food for him. When will he leave the palace? General Xi can't spout blood."

Xi Yun sneered: "You don't have to quibble, this commander doesn't care where you take him or what you do, if you just leave the post house and break into the palace without permission, you have violated our agreement."

Zhao Yan remained unmoved, and said: "If I remember correctly, our agreement at that time was 'except for the matters agreed between me and General Xi, I shall not leave the post house without authorization', but tonight when I come here, it is For the matter agreed with General Xi."

Xi Yun's expression moved slightly: "What about Chu Yunfeng?"

"Yes."

Zhaoyan Shi Shiran nodded: "About Chu Yunfeng, I got some new news, so I couldn't wait to come and share it with General Xi."

Xiyun was afraid that he would deceive him, so he didn't respond for a while.

Zhao Yan said: "I am alone, even if there is any conspiracy, I am afraid it will be difficult to use it under the net of heaven and earth laid by General Xi. After all, the matter of Chu Yunfeng involves the secrets of our two clans. There are many people here. General Xi will not Would you please come in and sit down?"

Xiyun pondered for a while, then staggered his figure, and made a "please" gesture.

**

As soon as the two sat down in the hall, Chang Ling came out wrapped in a cloak.

Xiyun frowned, obviously showing displeasure: "Young Master, why don't you take a good rest, what are you doing here?"

His tone unconsciously carried the sternness of an elder.

Chang Ling knew that he was on guard against Zhao Yan, so he did not confront him as usual, and said, "I also suddenly figured out something about Chu Yunfeng, I think we can discuss it together."

Xiyun obviously didn't think it was necessary, and just about to stop, Zhaoyan had already given up his cushion, put it flat on the seat next to him, and said with a smile, "Come and sit here."

Chang Ling didn't go over immediately, but glanced at Xiyun.

Xiyun: "..."

Xi Yun said unhappily: "Come here, make a long story short, and go back to sleep quickly after finishing speaking."

Chang Ling walked over and sat down obediently.

There is a basket of soft and glutinous brown sugar cakes on the table, with steam wafting, Qingluan rushed to the dining room to make new ones after hearing that the young master secretly followed the tyrant out to pick fruit in the middle of the night because he was hungry and could not find food .

Zhaoyan picked up the chopsticks slowly, picked up a small piece, and put it in the white porcelain plum blossom saucer in front of Chang Ling under Xi Yunrui's cold gaze.

Xiyun put down the tea bowl in his hand with a "bang", and the whole table shook slightly.

Just as Chang Ling was about to push the plate out, Zhao Yan pressed the edge of the plate with his fingers to prevent him from pushing it out. Then he calmly picked up the second piece of pastry, dipped it in sugar water, and put it into the little cake in front of Xiyun. dish.

He took another piece slowly for himself, raised his glass to Xiyun, and said: "It's time to discuss matters, how can there be no supper, I eat first, and General Xi can do what he wants."

"That's right, let's eat first. It's an honor for me to have the new king of the wolf clan serve the meal in person."

Xiyun smiled coldly, picked up the chopsticks calmly, and picked up the pastry on the plate.

Zhao Yan smiled back: "You're welcome."

During their verbal battle, Chang Ling had already eaten the first piece of pastry, and Zhao Yan was about to pick up the second piece for the little thing, when Xiyun pushed the whole basket of pastries in front of Chang Ling, saying: "Eat slowly. "

Chang Ling simply picked up the chopsticks and divided them into two pieces.

The three finished eating a basket of brown sugar cakes in a strange atmosphere.Xi Yun handed Chang Ling a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, but fixed his eyes on Zhao Yan, and said seriously: "Now let's talk about business."

Zhao Yan could only put back the half of the towel that he took out from his bosom, smiled leisurely, and said, "General Why Xi, tell us what you have learned first, and let's exchange information with each other."

Xi Yun nodded: "According to the information I have collected so far, it can be preliminarily determined that there is indeed someone in the DPRK who secretly colluded with Chu Yunfeng and opened the door for him to enter Qingqiu smoothly. It may be related to this rebellion. Therefore, the commander interrogated Zhu Long who planned the rebellion overnight, and the ministers and generals who usually attached to him, including Zhu Meng who was at odds with Zhu Long. But until now, their The words 'Chu Yunfeng' did not appear in the confession. Zhu Long himself also confessed that his only foreign aid was the second prince of the Chiyou clan, Zhuye."

"Then match up with my information."

Zhao Yan went on to say: "My lord asked the craftsman Fu Yu who came with the army this time to appraise the crossbow. Arrow picked up from outside Qingqiu City. He concluded that this crossbow. Arrow was newly cast. It is different from theirs. The first batch cast in the Sirius slave farm had huge differences in specifications, fineness, and lethality, and they were only similar in appearance. In other words, these crossbows and arrows were most likely imitations, although the raw materials were also made of red blood. Stone, but the casting method of Qingqiu is used, not the casting method of Fuyu. Another point is that red bloodstone is different from other materials for casting arrows. It needs the highest-regulated nine-eyed furnace to refine it. There shouldn’t be many nine-eyed furnaces in the city, right?”

"Nine-eyed furnace?"

Xiyun's eyebrows jumped suddenly.

Chang Ling suddenly said, "It's Bo Hui."

"The person who hooked up with Chu Yunfeng and put Chu Yunfeng into Qingqiu was Bo Hui. From the very beginning, we were all deceived by him."
