Prodigal Goro-kun

After Yan Qiuer finished speaking, she didn't get an immediate response.After a while, a person walked out slowly from the woods behind Qian Mian.

As soon as they heard the sound of footsteps accompanied by whirling leaves, the three of Qianmian immediately turned around and followed the sound, and when they saw the person coming, they knelt down together.

"Meet the Lord."

The man walked out of the forest with a handsome face and a cold expression. He ignored his three subordinates and just stared at Yan Qiuer intently.

Yan Qiuer felt uncomfortable from this person's eyes, because the other person's eyes didn't seem to be looking at a person at all, but was looking at an item, calmly analyzing and evaluating the value of the item, without any trace of personality. Emotion and the temperature that this emotion can generate.

Is this the King of Huai'an?Or another general beside King Huai'an?Yan Qiuer turned her head slightly to look at Tang Shuo, seeing that Tang Shuo frowned and seemed unable to confirm the identity of the person who came, Yan Qiuer turned her head to look at Fang Yao again.

Seeing Yan Qiuer looking over, Fang Yao hesitated for a moment, but still moved his mouth and made a "Huai'an King" mouth shape.

Although it was the expected answer, Yan Qiuer was so nervous that his palms sweated. After thinking for a moment, he gestured to Tang Shuo and Fang Yao.

Tang Shuo and Fang Yao are Yansheng's right and left hands. When they go out with Yansheng on weekdays, they have long been used to the small movements of Yansheng's hands. Gestures communicate with those around you.Over time, that hand gesture became a way of communication that only the Yan family knew. No matter what the situation was, the Yan family paid great attention to the movements of their hands.

However, noticing Yan Qiuer's gesture, Tang Shuo frowned, while Fang Yao raised his eyebrows slightly, smiling inwardly.

Yan Qiuer took a deep breath, and asked the King of Huai'an: "My lord, Yan Qiuer, do you dare to ask your name?" Yan Qiuer's intuition told him that even if he recognized the other party's identity at this time, he should treat it as a mistake. know.This king of Huai'an is not something he can handle.

When Yan Qiuer asked his name, King Huai'an's eyes moved slightly.He has already refused to declare his family name once, and this kid wants to ask for a second time?The spies in Chang'an City all said that Mr. Wulang had an exquisite heart, and he really did.

King Huai'an parted his lips slightly, and said coldly: "You are not qualified to know my name yet."

Yan Qiuer gritted her teeth secretly, and said loudly: "Since there is a difference in honor and inferiority, I don't know where I offended Your Excellency, and let Your Excellency use Gu to kill me?"

"I'm not the one who killed you." King Huai'an glanced slightly at Zhang Yuan, "One of my subordinates seems to be seeking revenge from the Yan family."

revenge?Yan Qiuer was puzzled.He didn't remember who the Yan family had feuded with.

But Fang Yao has a good memory. After repeating the name Zhang Yuan several times, he suddenly realized, and said in a low voice: "The Zhang family in Southwestern Kunzhou is doing medicinal materials business locally, but they are shoddy and false. After the Southwest Commercial Road, the Zhang family’s evil deeds were exposed, and I heard that the retaliation by the locals ended in a miserable end.”

After Fang Yao finished speaking, Yan Qiu'er had a general understanding of the Zhang family's deeds, but Yan Qiu'er still couldn't figure out, what did the Zhang family's affairs have to do with the Yan family?Where does the word revenge come from?

"When did it happen?" Yan Qiuer asked in a deep voice.

"Uh..." Fang Yao tried very hard to recall, and then replied, "About... ten years ago?"

Yan Qiuer was silent.It's really not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.

Yan Qiuer doesn't mind who Yan Sheng is hated by, but at this moment he needs a way to get out, so Yan Qiuer suddenly stood up straight, bowed to Zhang Yuan, and said very sincerely: "If my Yan family's actions are not Your Excellency has caused trouble, and I am here to apologize to Your Excellency on behalf of the Yan family. I just think that there is some misunderstanding in this matter, and I wonder if your honor can be extended to the government? The Yan family has a great business, and their reputation is still very important when they are outside the business."

Hearing this, Tang Shuo and Fang Yao also bowed to Zhang Yuan in cooperation.

With King Huai'an in front of him, Zhang Yuan didn't dare to answer casually, and King Huai'an didn't intend to make an answer, so he smiled expressionlessly and said to Yan Qiuer: "Do you think that I will let you go?"

Yan Qiuer was speechless, straightened up and raised his head, and asked King Huai'an: "Then what do you want to do? This enmity is between my Yan family and Zhang family, so it has nothing to do with you, right? Even if Zhang Yuan is your subordinate Your Excellency shouldn’t come forward, right? Or are your subordinates people who can’t even avenge their revenge with their own hands?”

"Revenge?" King Huai'an really smiled this time, but the smile was very light, and the smile was full of disdain and ridicule, "How can I care about his self-righteousness? Besides, he broke my heart." The plan exposed my whereabouts again, so you still beg for my asylum? If you want him, I will send you off. It is my intention to want you to die."

"May I ask what is your reason for wanting me to die?" Yan Qiuer clenched the dagger in his hand again. Out of the corner of his eye, he even saw that Tang Shuo had already grasped the hilt of the saber and pulled it out silently. a cut.

Yan Qiuer's question seemed to confuse King Huai'an, and King Huai'an was slightly taken aback, before answering: "My wish is the reason."

Despite the critical situation, Yan Qiuer couldn't help but roll his eyes.Are unreasonable people so depressing when they speak reason?He can't understand this profound reason at all!

Seeing Yan Qiuer standing there silently, King Huai'an said again: "What else do you want to say? I promise you to leave a last word."

"Hehe. Yes." Yan Qiuer laughed dryly, then took a deep breath, and suddenly shouted, "Let's go!"

Before the words were finished, Tang Shuo and Fang Yao immediately separated and rushed out, Yan Qiuer also turned around and ran wildly.

Unexpectedly, the three of Yan Qiuer, who were surrounded, would choose to break through forcefully. King Huai'an raised his eyebrows slightly, and raised his hand unhurriedly.

As soon as King Huai'an raised his hand, Qianmian and the masked man immediately led the hidden guards in the dark to chase Yan Qiuer and the others separately.Zhang Yuan didn't move, and still stood there looking at the back of King Huai'an, as if his eyes were trembling. The words of King Huai'an, "Are you still begging for my protection?" echoed in his mind all the time. , He was covered in cold sweat in shock.

The King of Huai'an also knew that Zhang Yuan hadn't moved, and the King of Huai'an was not in a hurry, he kept watching Qian Mian and others running away after each other, and then turned to look at Zhang Yuan.

"You want to place a puppet in the business world?" King Huai'an raised his foot and walked towards Zhang Yuan step by step.

Zhang Yuan's legs softened, and he fell to the side: "Master, lord... I, I, I have really controlled him... I, I don't know how he is still awake! Master, you, you Let me explain..."

"There is no need to explain, I know." King Huai'an still did not stop, "I have fully understood your stupidity, you don't need to explain it to me."

"Master, Lord! I, I'm not...I didn't..."

With a sound of "whoosh", a dagger came through the air, brushed off King Huai'an's right shoulder, and plunged into Zhang Yuan's throat without hesitation.

King Huai'an was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head suddenly, and looked behind him angrily.

Who dares to be presumptuous in front of him? !

A little farther away from King Huai'an, Yan Qiuer, who didn't know when to return, squatted on the thick trunk of a big tree, smiling contentedly.

If you want to retaliate, you must kill quickly. If you leave the enemy time to counterattack, you must be prepared to die.Now that he knows that Zhang Yuan regards the Yan family as an enemy and intends to harm the Yan family, how can he let this person go?

Yan Qiuer's self-satisfied smile didn't last long, and was destroyed by Qianmian who was chasing after him.Yan Qiuer hurriedly jumped off the tree trunk and ran away.

King Huai'an was a little dazed, he looked at Yan Qiu'er who was running fast, and then turned his head to look at Zhang Yuan who was already out of breath, King Huai'an flickered, and suddenly disappeared in place, when he reappeared, he was blocking In front of Yan Qiuer.

Yan Qiuer, who was running wildly, was full of trees. When a person suddenly appeared, Yan Qiuer staggered and fell to the ground.

Getting up and standing up, Yan Qiuer looked pantingly at King Huai'an who suddenly stood in front of him, and the sound of Qianmian's footsteps behind him, Yan Qiuer knew that he had no way to escape.

"You, do you want to switch to my command?"

Although Yan Qiuer was not able to get rid of the crisis, a 15-year-old merchant boy was able to survive the pursuit of a group of well-trained hidden guards for so long without being injured. Flying knife, King Huai'an suddenly wanted to recruit Yan Qiuer under his command. He was confident that he could train the young man in front of him to be better than anyone around him.

Yan Qiuer was stunned.What does King Huai'an want to do?

Panting heavily, Yan Qiuer replied: "The merchants in the Yan family are only engaged in business. I don't know what you mean by this subordinate?" It is not known whether Tang Shuo and Fang Yao escaped.

King Huai'an still looked at Yan Qiuer intently, and said: "Smart people don't pretend to be stupid in front of smart people, you know who I am. Besides, I don't want the Yan family, I only want you."

Yan Qiuer suddenly thought that if Yan Sheng said this, he would elope with Yan Sheng immediately without saying a word.

Withdrawing her wandering thoughts, Yan Qiuer chuckled lightly, and said, "I am very grateful for the love of the King of Huai'an, but everyone has their own ambitions. I just want to be a free and easy businessman, and I'm afraid I won't be able to work for you."

There was a trace of regret in King Huai'an's eyes, and then he slowly drew out his sword, pointed at Yan Qiuer and said, "I regret that you are a talent, so I will send you on your way with my own hands."

Yan Qiuer couldn't help twitching the corner of her mouth.According to what King Huai'an said, he has to say thank you even if he lost his life?

Seeing that Yan Qiuer was silent, King Huai'an stopped talking and raised his sword to attack.

King Huai'an's speed was so fast that Yan Qiuer couldn't even dodge. Seeing that he was about to be hit by the sword, Yan Qiuer yelled: "Yan Sheng!"

With a sound of "clang", a long sword plunged obliquely from above, and the tip of the sword just hit the hilt of the long sword in King Huai'an's hand, without leaning to one side or another.

The sword body fell under the force, and Huai'an King couldn't guard against it, so he let the long sword fall out of his hand.

Almost at the same time, a figure rushed over from the side, inserted between King Huai'an and Qian Mian, snatched away Yan Qiuer, and picked up the long sword thrown just now.

But in an instant, Yan Sheng took Yan Qiu'er out of the attack range of King Huai'an and Qianmian, hugged Yan Qiu'er in a circle, stopped in a safe place, and looked coldly at the surprised King of Huai'an.
