Chapter 1492: Holy Artifact! Scarlet calculation
In the early morning, a figure covered in blood and holding sharp armor rushed to the front of the Jiangzhou city wall.
The soldiers guarding the city at the gate quickly noticed the figure lying on the ground and hurriedly brought the person into Jiangzhou Prefecture.
At noon, Li Chengfeng, who was sitting in the room, was woken up by the sound of going to the hall, and walked out of the room and came to the prefecture court.
In the court, Wenqu was wearing a purple official robe and lived behind the court's desk.
The master sat on the left and right of Wenqu, with yamen runners waiting for battle with powerful killing sticks on both sides.
In the court, a man wearing vine armor was covered with bandages kneeling on the ground, sweating profusely.
Seeing Li Chengfeng enter the court, everyone's eyes were attracted by him.
After that incident a few days ago, no one in Jiangzhou Prefecture knew this noble person.
The man kneeling on the ground saw Li Chengfeng appear, rolling and crawling to Li Chengfeng and grabbed his trouser legs.
"Eighth Prince, now you are the only one who can save me!" the man begged.
Li Chengfeng frowned slightly and looked at the man under his feet with a look of at a loss.
Judging from the man's outfit, he should be from Baiyue. Why did he come to Jiangzhou? He also asked himself to take action?
However, Wenqu on the stage soon gave his answer to his questions.
Wenqu quickly walked to Li Chengfeng and whispered the whole story in his ear.
Only then did Li Chengfeng know the identity of a man and the reason.
It turned out that the man's name was Lei Ying, the deputy general of the Baiyue Marshal Ran Ji. He had previously followed the Baiyue Mission to the Tang Dynasty.
But early this morning, he came outside Jiangzhou Prefecture with wounds.
The soldiers guarding the gate did not dare to delay reporting to Wenqu all the way, and sent the man to Jiangzhou Prefecture.
Faced with the sudden arrival of Lei Ying Wenqu, Wenqu, did not dare to ask Dada to go to the hall quickly, but Lei Ying did not speak.
No mention of why he came to Jiangzhou and the injuries on his body, he kept repeating a sentence:
"I want to meet the Eighth Prince Li Chengfeng!"
After understanding the causes and consequences, Li Chengfeng nodded slightly and helped Lei Ying up under his feet.
"Aren't you going to see me? Now I'm here. If you have anything to say, just say it!" Li Chengfeng spoke slowly.
Lei Ying looked up and down at Li Chengfeng, but seemed to be still considering: "Please take a step to speak..."
The two left the Jiangzhou government office and came to Li Chengfeng's bedroom in the backyard of the government office.
"Tell me, there is no one else here!" Li Chengfeng sat upright on the Grand Master's chair and looked down at Lei Ying kneeling in front of him.
Lei Ying glanced around and slowly told him the cause of his trip and the purpose of finding Li Chengfeng.
A month ago, the Baiyue King held a clan meeting, and the leaders of various major ethnic groups gathered at the Baiyue King to discuss major events.
At this critical moment, the high priest who had always been loyal to assisting the King of Baiyue, led an army from unknown sources to capture all the Baiyue senior officials, including the King of Baiyue.
Lei Ying, who was stationed outside the city, led his troops to rush to help but was killed and threw away his armor. He had no choice but to flee to the Tang Dynasty.
For the past month, he wandered around to avoid hunting.
Just yesterday, he suddenly received a secret letter from Princess Baiyue Ran Bing.
The secret letter told him that Li Chengfeng was in Jiangzhou and gave him the token, asking him to go to Li Chengfeng for help.
Hearing this, Li Chengfeng interrupted Lei Ying's narrative, took out a portrait from the desk beside him and handed it over.
"The princess you said is this person?"
Lei Ying took the rice paper with confusion on his face, but when he saw the person painting on the paper, he widened his eyes.
"Where did the Eighth Prince get this painting? This person is my eldest princess Baiyue!" Lei Ying's voice trembled a little.
"I met her yesterday, and there is another portrait here, you can recognize it."
After talking, Li Chengfeng picked up another portrait and saw clearly the person painted on the portrait.
Lei Ying couldn't help but take a breath of coldness and breathe a little bit: "How could it be him!"
...
Three hours later, a figure quietly left from Jiangzhou Prefecture and headed straight to the west of the city.
Li Chengfeng held a Gu insect handed to him by Lei Ying. The Gu insect flapped its wings and flew high to guide her in the direction of progress.
He had already expressed his attitude towards Baiyue and refused to interfere, but Lei Ying gave a very generous condition.
If Princess Baiyue could be rescued from the man in white robe, Princess Baiyue would hand over the sacred relics of the Baiyue tribe in her hand to Li Chengfeng.
In fact, Li Chengfeng didn't want to get deeper into the Baiyue matter. For him, instead of dealing with this mess, it would be more interesting to travel to Yangzhou, which is full of flowers.
However, Lei Ying told her a more explosive news, that is, the so-called holy object was bravely stolen from the four holy lands a hundred years ago by the ancestors of the Baiyue clan. Even the holy lands were only one.
When Li Chengfeng heard this, he felt a sudden heart. Could it be that what he snatched from the Great Holy Land a hundred years ago was a fragment of time and space?
Especially after Lei Ying described it, he had basically confirmed in his heart that the so-called holy land of the Baiyue tribe was a fragment of time and space.
In this way, Li Chengfeng can't stand by and watch.
He asked for a tracking worm from Lei Ying and followed the guidance of the worm to chase the northwest corner of Jiangzhou.
...
At this time, in a garden in the northwest corner of Jiangzhou City, Ran Bing was sitting on the tea table pouring tea and water calmly.
Standing opposite her was the strong man holding a white scythe in his hands.
Aside from the strong man was a thin man, his thin body was hidden in a wide purple sleeve robe, his pale face and deep eye sockets, as if he could overturn him to the ground and never crawl.
stand up.
But Ran Bing did not dare to despise the man in front of him at all, because it was this man who imprisoned his father.
He is the current high priest of Baiyue: Chi Ming!
"High Priest, please tell me what you have if you have anything to do!" Ran Bing said, holding back the anger in his heart.
Chi Ming reached out to take the tea handed over by Ran Bing and drank it all.
"Don't worry! Princess, aren't you still a distinguished guest who hasn't come?" Chi Ming nodded slightly.
If it weren't for the person in front of him who was vicious and vicious, Ran Bing would even feel that there was a graceful scholar in front of him.
Wait... He just said that he was noble, did he already know? Ran Bing was shocked!
"There is no noble person? I have been caught by you. What else can I do?" Ran Bing shook his head.
Chi Ming suddenly stood up, walked to Ran Bing and patted her on the shoulder.
"If he heard what you said, how sad would the eighth prince you invited?" he whispered in Ran Bing's ear.
Hearing this sentence, the originally calm eldest princess Ran Bing was instantly panicked.
She pointed her finger at Chi Ming and opened her mouth wide, but she couldn't make a sound for a long time. It took a long time to make a cry of sorrow.
"Lei Ying is your person? It turns out that all this is a trap?!" She fell into deep despair.
I originally thought that if Lei Ying could invite reinforcements from Li Chengfeng, the Baiyue royal family might have a glimmer of hope.
But she never expected that Lei Ying, who was promoted by her father, was also Chi Ming!
Her self-righteous rescue operation was actually just a conspiracy of Chi Ming carefully plotting...
"It's over, everything is over..."
Ran Bing tightly clamped her robe and looked out of the room with empty eyes!
Chi Ming looked at Ran Bing, who was invincible, and a casual smile appeared on his feminine and handsome face.
