Chapter forty-eight sets of almost
Zhang Xiaonian agreed very happily, so happily that King Ni was a little unresponsive. This made him prepare a lot of rhetoric in advance, but there was no use for it.
After a slight shock in his heart, King Ni continued: "Then, we welcome the mage to join our team. After arriving in the royal capital, the scenery there will definitely not disappoint the mage!"
Although the other party agreed a little quickly, which surprised him, since the other party agreed, Nioh didn't need to say too much. It was only right to implement the matter quickly.
Zhang Xiaonian actually felt a little regretful after he agreed. He knew that he was a little impulsive. In his previous plan, there was no option to go to the royal capital.
The royal capital of a country is the economic, political and cultural center of a country, gathering talents from all aspects of the country. Even if Yu State is only a medium-sized country, it is conceivable that there are absolutely crouching tigers, hidden dragons in the royal capital.
Zhang Xiaonian does have some abilities now, but if his abilities are placed in a large environment like the Royal Capital, even a young man with the pretentiousness and immaturity would not naively think that with his little ability, he can succeed in the Royal Capital.
There was a lot of chaos among them.
However, the words have already been spoken, and the words of the noble man in front of him have sealed the matter. This leaves him no room to regret, so he can only suppress a trace of regret in his heart and turn to comfort.
Get up yourself.
"Actually, it's not bad to go to the Royal Capital. It's much better than going to those remote places, and with this noble man as my backer, when I get to the Royal Capital, maybe I can really get ahead, and glory and wealth will be right in front of me." Zhang Xiaonian thought to himself.
He comforted himself like this.
After comforting himself in this way, Zhang Xiaonian suddenly focused on the good life he might lead after going to the royal capital. The trace of regret he felt just now was pressed deeper by him.
"Zhang Xiaonian has met the noble man. I wonder how I should call you in the future?" After suppressing his regret, Zhang Xiaonian continued to ask King Ni.
When he asked this question, what he really wanted to know was the identity of the Nioh in front of him.
The name Renwang called himself just now indicated that he was a prince, but Zhang Xiaonian didn't know which prince of the Yu Kingdom he was. Since he was going to follow someone else, he had to know the identity of the person he was seeking refuge with.
"I am the benevolent king. I am the son of the current master of the country. From now on, the Master can just call me your highness!" Hearing this, the benevolent king continued to say with a smile.
However, while speaking, his eyes were fixed on the change in Zhang Xiaonian's expression, fearing that after revealing his identity, the other party would immediately change his expression or even directly regret it.
But after he revealed his identity, Zhang Xiaonian did look as normal, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes, as if he was thinking about whether he had heard of the name Niwang.
Li Sheng and Zou Heng on the side saw all this. They looked at each other and felt completely relieved.
Judging from Zhang Xiaonian's current performance, it is known that the other party does not know the meaning of Niwang's identity at all. In fact, this is very normal.
The other party used to be an apprentice in a drugstore. Although he was also a magician in the realm of practicing magic, he had never revealed it much, so the information he had access to was naturally only in a very limited circle.
Based on the environment he has been in, even if he was told the identity of Niou, he would not be able to think of anything for a while. This has nothing to do with whether a person is smart or not, it is just the limitations of thinking and information brought about by the environment he has been in.
sex.
Zou Heng, Li Sheng and others will not tell each other now about the dangers they may encounter on the way to the royal capital. Of course, they cannot hide it from each other all the time. They still have to slowly let the other party accept it. If on the way
If you can't hide it when you encounter an attack, then of course it's a different matter.
The rain outside has stopped, and everyone did not leave the cave immediately. Instead, they tidied up and dried their clothes. In addition, the rain had just stopped, and they needed to let the rainwater on the ground dry for a while before setting off on the road.
It's easy to walk, but I guess it's not much better.
After about an hour, everyone's clothes were almost dry. As for those that were not dry yet, they could only endure it for a while. Then the team left the cave and walked towards the official road again.
This time there is one more person in the team, and the atmosphere has changed slightly from before. As a person who has just joined the team, Zhang Xiaonian is trying his best to integrate into the team as soon as possible, so he has tried to find some people several times.
The soldiers talked to each other, but it made him seem even more out of tune with the rest of the team.
Zou Heng and Li Sheng would glance at him from time to time. Seeing that he seemed very lively, they didn't talk to him and just let him be.
The road after the rain is really difficult to walk. Even the relatively good official road is still very muddy. After walking a few steps, you can pick up a foot of mud on your feet, which greatly affects everyone's progress.
speed.
Moving forward on this road, even Zhang Xiaonian, who was relatively lively at the beginning, became much quieter after a while.
At this time, his eyes would look at Zou Heng and Li Sheng at the front of the team from time to time. Seeing the two of them riding on the horse without their feet touching the ground, he couldn't help but feel very envious.
That's all Li Sheng, he was obviously a general, but Zou Heng's dress clearly showed that he was a warlock like himself, and judging from his age, he might not be older than himself. This made Zhang Xiaonian envious of Zou Heng.
Heng also felt a little curious.
However, thinking that in the cave, the other party asked a lot of magic techniques from him, this curiosity turned into rejection to a certain extent. The idea of looking for an opportunity to regain the situation quickly disappeared from his mind.
came out.
However, he had just joined the team and knew that this was not the right time to do anything. Moreover, if he wanted to find a chance to compete, he had to know what others knew. Otherwise, what if he got kicked?
Time continued to pass as everyone hurried on their way. When the sky darkened, everyone was still walking on the official road and had not yet reached the inhabited place.
Zou Heng, who was in the team, had already blessed everyone with wind movement skills. He hoped that everyone could find a place where people gathered to rest before dark.
And when he showed his hand, Zhang Xiaonian, who had originally been thinking about finding a chance to compete with him, suppressed his thoughts some more.
Maybe everyone is more connected with caves today, until it was completely dark, everyone finally found a place to stay at night, which was still a cave.
With a place to rest and a group of people, there is nothing to be picky about, so we can arrange people to stay on duty as usual.
It was only at this time that Zhang Xiaonian finally approached Zou Heng and started talking to Zou Heng.
"Master, I don't know your name yet. From now on, we are all traveling together, so I don't know what to call you!"
Zou Heng looked at Zhang Xiaonian who was approaching him, smiled and said: "My name is Zou Heng, just call me by my name!"
"I'd better call you Master Zou. You already know my name. You and I are both sorcerers. We will serve His Highness Renwang from now on. Please take good care of me!" Zhang Xiaonian said politely.
"This is easy to say!"
Zou Heng looked at Zhang Xiaonian, and his intuition told him that the other party might have other purposes besides coming to get close to him. He did not mean to reject the other party directly, but was prepared to see what he wanted to do, or what he wanted to do.
What do you get from yourself?
After listening to Zhang Xiaonian getting close to him for a while, Zou Heng finally heard Zhang Xiaonian ask cautiously.
"Master Zou, you know that I am from a small place and have little knowledge. I have only heard of some of the princes of our Yu Kingdom before, but I have never heard anyone mention the name of our Highness.
."
"After arriving in the royal capital, if someone asks who I am, I still don't know how to introduce it. Can Master Zou tell me where His Highness's fiefdom is and what experiences he has, so that I can go out and talk to people?
, and you won’t show your timidity!”
After listening to Zhang Xiaonian's words, Zou Heng knew that the purpose of this guy's approach to him was to find out the details of King Ni. Half a day had passed since he agreed in a hot-headed manner, and he seemed to have calmed down.
"The fiefdom of His Highness the King of Ren, as far as I know, there is really no such thing. As for the experience, it is quite rich. He used to be a hostage in Qi State, and now he has just returned to the country. He is going to the royal capital to pay homage to the king. Generally speaking,
That’s it!”
Zou Heng didn't hide anything from Zhang Xiaonian and said it directly and honestly.
After hearing Zou Heng's words, Zhang Xiaonian was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that everything would be like this.
Thinking back to the time when he was in the market, he seemed to have heard that the heir of a king was to be welcomed back from Qi. He didn't expect that it would be the Renwang. What he didn't expect was that he would meet him again.
After being stunned for a moment, Zhang Xiaonian's face showed a smile, and he thought happily in his heart.
"The king's heir has made a special trip to welcome him back from Qi. Doesn't that mean that His Highness Renwang has the possibility of inheriting the throne of the king? Then if I become His Highness Renwang's subordinate, I might also be able to become a highly respected minister in the future!"
According to Zhang Xiaonian's knowledge, most of the current king's heirs have died unexpectedly. Among the current king's heirs, there is no male who can take on important responsibilities. This means that Niou may be the only one who can take on important responsibilities.
people.
Zou Heng looked at the smile on Zhang Xiaonian's face and knew what he was thinking. For a person like Zhang Xiaonian who was just an ordinary citizen, he did not realize the danger at the first time and had never been exposed to it.
The struggle for power at the top naturally only brings good things to mind.
