I pretend to be affectionate in front of my foe

"The eldest prince is safe and sound." Xiao Yiran was not surprised when he saw the man's true face, as if he had already guessed it.

The person standing in front of Xiao Yiran at this moment is Yuan Yi, the eldest prince of the Qiang Kingdom.

"My lord is a smart man, so I won't play tricks anymore." After speaking, Yuan Yi took out a piece of paper from his bosom, and stuffed it directly into Xiao Yiran's bosom.

"What is this?" Xiao Yiran raised the corners of his mouth with a half-smile after reading the contents on the paper.

It is the right to use the ink mine of Qiang country.

Although the Qiang State is remote and barren, the ink mines it possesses are rare in other countries, and there are many countries that are greedy for the ink mines of the Qiang State.

"Didn't we make an agreement a long time ago?" Yuan Yi suddenly approached Xiao Yiran as he spoke, and said in his ear: "I will pay you money, and you will give me some of the treasure land of Jiang Country."

Hearing this, Xiao Yiran's expression changed suddenly, and he said in a deep voice, "When did I say that?"

Saying that, Xiao Yiran drew out his sword, pointed the sword point at Yuan Yi's face, Yuan Yi dodged quickly, but Xiao Yiran still cut off a piece of hair.

Xiao Yiran was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, when suddenly a group of people rushed out from all around, besieging Yuan Yi and him layer by layer.

The visitor was wearing a uniform light yellow corseted short uniform, which was the unique attire of the imperial guards around the Emperor Jiang.

Seeing this, Xiao Yiran's face darkened slightly, and a haze appeared in his eyes. His sharp eyes passed through the crowd and quietly shot at the center of the guards.

Yuan Yi didn't show surprise at all, he raised the corner of his mouth, took the opportunity to break free from Xiao Yiran's restraint, and dodged aside.

Xiao Yiyang pushed through the crowd and came out. He was dressed in green shirt like a frail scholar, but his expression was slightly sharp.

"Emperor brother, how are you doing recently?" Xiao Yiyang stopped in front of the two and asked.

His eyes glanced back and forth between the two, his expression was not as kind as his tone.

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yiyang didn't get a response, but just glanced at him lightly, and took a step back without any trace.

This small movement caused panic among the guards, and the sound of "cengceng" drawing a knife suddenly sounded, and the guards showed their white blades, and gathered around Xiao Yiyang one by one.

"Back off." Xiao Yiyang snorted softly, and the guards withdrew their knives in a daze, looking at me and looking at you, they couldn't figure out Xiao Yiyang's intention for a moment.

Xiao Yiyang took another step forward, staring at Xiao Yiran with a pair of smiling eyes and continued: "Your brother has made new friends?"

"No." Xiao Yiran responded blankly, silently thinking about how to escape safely.

Xiao Yiyang didn't care about Xiao Yiran's answer, turned his gaze to Yuan Yi, as if he had just discovered him, and said in surprise: "Your brother, this new friend looks familiar."

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the First Prince of the Qiang Kingdom." Xiao Yiyang said, still with a smile in his eyes.

His smile didn't reach his eyes, but instead made people feel inexplicable chills down their spines.

Just as he was speaking, the guards behind him had already started to move.

"The Sixth Prince of this country and the First Prince of the Qiang Kingdom are probably too close."

Xiao Yiyang almost gritted his teeth to say the last few words.

He shook the fan in his hand, and the guards who were ready to go rushed up, tightly surrounding Xiao Yiran and Yuan Yi.

"The Sixth Prince's ambition remains unchanged and he colluded with the enemy country in an attempt to betray the country and seek glory." Xiao Yiyang immediately put away his smile and said in a cold voice: "It was in vain that I cared about the love of my compatriots and forgave him, but he didn't know how to repent and insisted on going his own way. Prince Xiao Yiran was arrested and brought to justice, and sent to the clan's mansion to await punishment!"

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the guards showed their weapons and attacked Xiao Yiran fatally.

Even with great divine power, it is not an easy task to defeat a hundred with one.

Besides, Xiao Yiyang came prepared, and the guards he brought with him were all masters. After several fights, Xiao Yiran began to feel overwhelmed.

Xiao Yiran leaped to the outermost edge of the crowd, and only then did he slightly shake off the guards who were chasing him, and took the time to say: "Your Majesty said that I betrayed my country for glory, what evidence do you have?"

Seeing Xiao Yiran's embarrassed posture, Xiao Yiyang felt extremely happy, and his voice became much lighter: "Of course, would I wrong you for no reason?"

This question was just a tactic to delay the attack, Xiao Yiran knew that Xiao Yiyang's ability to catch him this time must have already been planned, and the eldest prince of the Qiang Kingdom must have planned to approach him for no reason.

Thinking about it, Xiao Yiran snorted coldly and said: "Who is the collaborator is still unknown, His Majesty knows best."

"Prince, do you think what I said makes sense?" Xiao Yiran turned his head and glanced at Yuan Yi, with an indifferent tone of disdain.

"Whatever you say is what you say." Although Yuan Yi was answering Xiao Yiran's words, his eyes kept looking at Xiao Yiyang.

Surrounded by guards, Yuan Yi didn't seem to panic at all. If it wasn't because he was so confident, he probably couldn't find any other reason.

"In that case, don't blame me for being rude."

Before Xiao Yiyang could finish speaking, Lie Jian suddenly flew in the air, blocking Xiao Yiran with a slightly aggressive attitude.

"The masked man ran away." Lie Ren lowered his voice.

heard.

Xiao Yiran nodded slightly, glanced at Yuan Yi, thinking that he had been tricked, and his face gradually became gloomy.

At this moment, Xiao Yiyang spoke again without warning: "Who is coming? He drew his sword at me!"

"Forgive me for your rudeness. As the sixth prince's guard, this subordinate is only doing my duty."

After finishing speaking, Lie Ren still didn't put down the knife, and stood in front of Xiao Yiran in a daze.

As the lord of a country, it was the first time that Xiao Yiyang was treated with such disrespect.

With a "swish", he drew a sword from the bodyguard beside him, and quickly stabbed at Lie Ren.

Knowing that he offended the king's prestige, Lie Ren was not prepared to dodge the sword.

When the tip of the sword was less than half a finger away from Lie Ren's neck, the sword was suddenly cut off.

"My lord!" Lie Ren immediately took a step back, looking at the sword cut off by his lord in disbelief.

"No one of my people is qualified to move except me." Xiao Yiran said, kicking the broken sword away, holding the long sword in his hand to separate himself from Xiao Yiyang, and continued: "Including the emperor, you are also not qualified .”

"Take them down for me!" The fake smile on Xiao Yiyang's face could no longer hold back, he stared at Xiao Yiran firmly, and said through gritted teeth: "Take down this traitorous minister and traitor!"

With an order, Xiao Yiyang's personal guards forced the two of them to a corner, and started to fight mercilessly.

After several deliberate provocations, Xiao Yiran's mood was already unstable. He waved the long sword almost numbly, the veins in the hand holding the long sword bulged, and his face gradually turned pale.

During the fight, Yuan Yi took advantage of the chaos to rush to Xiao Yiyang's side and reminded him: "Now is a good time to kill them all."

Yuan Yi pointedly looked at the besieged Xiao Yiran, and said with a sinister smile: "Seeing that his eyes are red and his complexion is not good, it seems to be a manifestation of poison."

After saying that, Yuan Yi paused pretending to be mysterious, and said again: "I think he is also terminally ill, and he won't be arrogant for long."

Looking at Xiao Yiran who was wrestling with the guards, the corners of Xiao Yiyang's mouth raised unconsciously, pulling out a sarcasm, his thin lips slightly parted, and slowly spit out a few words: "The Sixth Prince lost his way and never returned, killing without mercy. "

As soon as this remark came out, the guards were no longer restrained in an instant, and began to kill one after another.

It took Lie Ren a lot of energy to entangle with the masked man just now, and now Lie Ren is gradually finding it difficult to deal with these elite guards.

Thinking about it, Lie Ren turned his head worriedly, took a moment to glance at Xiao Yiran who was also in a whole body, and felt uneasy in his heart.

I saw that most of the sent guards surrounded Xiao Yiran, and their moves were more ruthless than before, and all their moves were aimed at the deadly parts.

Fighting against dozens of people with high martial arts skills by one person, even a god descending to the mortal world will not help, let alone Xiao Yiran is just an ordinary person with naked eyes.

Even at a distance of several people, Lie Ren could see Xiao Yiran's increasingly weak expression.

He immediately looked at Xiao Yiran's hand again, and found that his finger joints had turned white, and the hand holding the long sword had begun to tremble.

Having followed Xiao Yiran for a long time, Lie Ren knew that Xiao Yiran's current appearance was poisonous.
