There was a temporary palace in the center of the military tent, with Emperor Yuliang sitting on it.
The monument is talking about the Three Kingdoms as always, while below two pretty women are wearing handcuffs and anklets, and are guarded by two soldiers.
Although it was a temporary construction, the palace was lit up with beaded lamps and the precious eucalyptus and incense cauldrons were in full display, showing the emperor's luxurious style.
"I am reporting to Emperor Liang that a Confucian scholar named Ying Wuchian is asking for an audience!"
"Xuan!"
Emperor Yuliang opened his mouth lightly, and then waved his hand to the tablet holder, who immediately sped up his speech and finished a story before closing his mouth and retreating behind him.
"Xuan, Ying Wuqian comes to see you!"
A young eunuch shouted outside with a high-pitched voice.
Not long after, a solemn Confucian slowly walked into the hall with steady steps. After standing still, the Confucian looked around and held his head proudly.
"Master, leave us alone and leave quickly!"
Seeing Ying Wuqian, Ling Boying shouted excitedly, while Yuanyang Jing remained silent, because Emperor Yuliang asked her many things about Ying Wuqian in private, and she told them everything.
She felt very guilty because she thought she had betrayed Ying Wuqian.
Seeing that the visitor was arrogant, the young eunuch stretched out his hand and scolded him angrily.
"Bold, don't kneel down when you see Emperor Liang!"
Ying Wuqian had a sneer on his face, and instead of caring about a disabled person, he took out the Bahong Key and threw it on the ground.
Snapped!
The jade stone collided with the ground and made a crisp sound, and then Ying Wuqian said calmly: "Let him go!"
Entering the camp alone, throwing keys to save people, with such a calm demeanor, if he didn't know that this was an act, the Yuliang Emperor would have given him a thumbs up.
What courage!
Emperor Yuliang knew it, but the two hostages didn't know it was an act. Ling Boying looked at this indifferent and fearless figure, and she couldn't help but be fascinated as she had never been interested in men.
"Master..."
Yuanyang Jing also looked slightly startled, captured by his aura.
Emperor Yuliang, who was sitting above, saw the expressions of the two goddesses and smiled secretly in his heart.
This Ying Wuqian is really good at acting. I am afraid that Hongchenxue and Ji Kunpeng will trust him even more when he returns this time.
Immediately, Emperor Yuliang gathered his thoughts and waved his hand.
"Let them go!"
He didn't even think about being embarrassed, because he confirmed from Yuanyang Jing's mouth that Ying Wuqian's experience was exactly what he said.
After receiving the order, the two guarding soldiers immediately took out the keys and unlocked the handcuffs and shackles of the two women.
After the restraints were released, Ling Boying pulled the stunned Yuanyang Jing and quickly ran behind Ying Wuqian.
Ying Wuqian gave Emperor Yuliang a look that only two people could understand, then turned around and led the two girls out of the Wudu military camp.
After he left, Marquis Wanhu chuckled, "If I hadn't known that this person had cooperated with Emperor Liang, I would have probably praised him for his courage!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall burst into laughter, and even the stern Yuliang Emperor didn't notice the corners of his mouth rising.
"Congratulations to Emperor Liang for getting the key. The wonders of the mountains and seas are now under control. Congratulations to Emperor Liang!"
Shihou flattered him at the right time.
When everyone laughed happily, the soldiers came to report.
"Report~A young man named Le Xunyuan wants to see you."
Le Xunyuan, Lord of Order No. 6?
Emperor Yuliang was slightly startled. He didn't know why this person came to him. Could it be that the person under surveillance was exposed?
Then he should go to the Demonic Breath Emperor instead of himself. Emperor Yuliang was a little puzzled.
While he was thinking, the soldier added: "In addition... I am waiting for my death and will be defeated. I am waiting outside the tent."
The news of the defeat dampened the joy just now, causing the entire hall to fall into a state of solemnity. Emperor Yuliang also had a gloomy look on his face.
"First bring Le Xunyuan to see the Solitary Emperor!"
"yes!"
The soldiers took the order and retreated.
After a while, Le Xunyuan came in with He Baiding.
After standing still, Le Xunyuan leaned over and saluted.
"Le Xunyuan met Emperor Liang!"
His attitude was very respectful, and Emperor Yuliang nodded slightly.
"As one of the contestants in the ancient original hegemony, your command key is not related to Guhuang's, why are you here?"
Le Xunyuan stood up and said: "I don't dare to deceive Emperor Liang. I was attacked by Emperor Yanggengri not long ago. If my friend He Baiding hadn't fought to the death to protect me, I would have been a lost soul at this time."
I know that my strength is too low to survive in this competition, so I am willing to offer the key to seek the protection of Emperor Liang."
After saying that, Le Xunyuan held the key and presented it respectfully, while He Baiding beside him hesitated to speak.
Once the key is given out, it is equivalent to giving up the identity of the contestant. This was not mentioned during the previous discussion. Although He Baiding was puzzled, He Baiding still endured and said nothing.
"oh?"
Emperor Yuliang was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he realized it was normal.
This man was of low strength, was forced to kill, and his life was threatened. It was human nature to feel timid, but there was one thing he didn't understand.
Doubtful in his heart, Emperor Yuliang asked: "The Ancient Plains Hegemony originally invited the elders of a faction to participate. The original owner of your command key also knew the abilities of the contestants. Why did he send you, a junior, to come here? He is not afraid of playing with a bamboo basket.
If all the water comes out empty, what will happen if you lose both your life and treasure?"
"See you tomorrow, Emperor Liang!"
Le Xunyuan quickly explained: "The Yushu Order originally belonged to my uncle, but he was ill and unable to participate, so he asked me to do it for him. My uncle once said that this trip is about experience. If necessary, you can abandon the order to save your life."
"I see!"
Emperor Yuliang nodded, this explanation was in line with his guess.
Withdrawing his gaze, Emperor Yuliang said calmly: "Uncle Ling is really interested in you, so there is no need for the key. If you stay here, the Emperor will protect you."
"this......"
Le Xunyuan was a little confused whether Emperor Yuliang really had no idea about his command key or was just acting on purpose, waiting for him to express his opinion consciously.
While hesitating, Emperor Yuliang said coldly to a soldier: "Bring the life-sucking minister up here!"
"yes!"
The soldier took the order and went out, then walked in while waiting for his orders.
However, he saw that Yin Minghou tied his hands and knelt down directly after entering.
"Brother, I have failed my trust and come here to apologize!"
"Where is King Langyun?"
Emperor Yuliang looked at him coldly.
"During the melee, Wang Xiaoran suddenly returned with two masters. When we were defeated and retreated, we did not have time to respond, resulting in King Langyun being captured."
Yin Minghou did not hide anything and directly told the situation at that time.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Does that mean you abandoned your comrades?"
Emperor Yuliang asked again, his voice without any emotion.
"Brother didn't want to, but the Demonic Breath Emperor took us away by force, and I didn't have time to come back for help!" The Life Drinker said bluntly.
Emperor Yuliang said coldly: "This is not a reason to evade responsibility. Do you know what the punishment is for abandoning your comrades in Wudu?"
"Death penalty!"
He raised his head while drinking his life. Although he was unwilling to do so, he was willing to die!
At this time, Marquis Wanhu spoke out and advised: "Nowadays, there are ancient plains fighting for hegemony outside, and the Demonic Breath Empire inside. It is the right time for Wudu to employ people. Please be kind to Emperor Liang and give Yin Minghou a chance to atone for his sins!"
"Please be kind to Emperor Liang."
Si Xiang and the other generals began to plead for mercy.
"You don't have to plead for me. Wudu's laws are strict. How can I make an exception for my brother?"
I am moved by my fate and do not want to implicate others.
Emperor Yuliang looked at this loyal subordinate without saying a word, and the hall fell into silence for a while.
Le Xunyuan and He Baiding on the side were unaware of the situation and made no sound.
After a long time, Emperor Yuliang made the decision to die.
"In recognition of your past achievements, the Emperor will leave your body intact."
"Come here and give me poisonous wine!"
Emperor Yuliang made his decision, and those who had previously persuaded him remained silent. Soon a soldier came up with a tray.
When he was about to drink his life, he picked up the poisoned wine and smiled casually, "Brother is not afraid of death, but I will ask Emperor Liang to take care of Shaowei."
"Don't worry, Gu Huang will let him inherit your position!"
Emperor Yuliang tried his best to suppress his tone, because he was the younger brother Shaowei mentioned by Yin Minghou, but Yin Minghou didn't know it.
Although the poisoned wine was fake, after that, if the drinker took his place and attracted firepower and pretended to open the city, the outcome would probably be death.
In fact, someone else could do this, but the Shadow Warrior had no choice, because this was the decision made by the real Yuliang Emperor, and he could only obey it.
"Brother, I wish you eternal life!"
After drinking his life, he smiled happily, raised his head and drank the poisonous wine.
After only a few breaths, he was already dead from the poison, and black blood flowed out from the seven orifices of Drinking Life. Everyone in the hall felt sad, but no one said a word.
Just because this is the law of Wudu and the law of Emperor Liang!
Such a loyal subordinate was killed at will, and the emperor's ruthlessness was fully exposed. He Bai and Ding felt a chill in their hearts, and Le Xunyuan was also secretly afraid.
"Take him away and bury him alive!"
After waving his hand and waiting for the soldiers to carry down the dying corpse, Emperor Yuliang sat on the dragon chair, leaning forward and looking down at Le Xunyuan and the other two.
"You also heard just now that King Langyun was captured by Wang Xiaoran under the Solitary Emperor's throne. You and he went in and out together before, so we must have a close relationship. I wonder if you two would be willing to go on your behalf to clarify the misunderstanding and bring King Langyun with you.
Return."
He Baiding, who was already dissatisfied with Emperor Yuliang, immediately nodded in agreement and wanted to take this opportunity to take Le Xun away from Wudu's sphere of influence.
But before he could speak, he was secretly kicked by Le Xunyuan, and he immediately understood that this was a reminder to him not to speak.
Seeing that He Baiding had received his message, Le Xunyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "We are naturally willing to share Emperor Liang's worries, but before setting off, please ask Emperor Liang to accept this command key."
Le Xunyuan presented the command key again.
He knew that Emperor Yuliang had his own intentions in asking them to negotiate with Wang Xiaoran, but it was also a test.
If he did not agree directly, Emperor Yuliang would definitely fall out. After all, the relationship between him and Wang Xiaoran was unclear, and their command keys could still be matched. No one could rest assured that they would meet up.
He is quite sober!
Emperor Yuliang looked at the command key in Le Xunyuan's hand and clicked his tongue, and then said: "That's right. With your strength, there are indeed many dangers in taking the command key out. So I will keep it for you for the time being, and wait for you to bring it with you."
Return to King Langyun and return it to you."
"Thank you Emperor Liang, my friend and I will leave now!"
"Go for it!"
Emperor Yuliang nodded.
After handing over the command key, Le Xunyuan pulled He Baiding and quickly walked out of the hall.
After leaving the Wudu military camp, He Baiding asked: "I think Emperor Yuliang is ruthless and not a good person, so why did he leave the command key behind?"
Le Xunyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think you and I can walk out of the military tent without leaving the command key?"
After saying this, He Baiding also understood and squeezed the wine bottle tightly.
"hateful!"
"The command key has been lost. What should I do next? Should I go back to Zanghui or find another opportunity?" He Baiding asked again after taking a few sips of wine.
Le Xunyuan had already made a plan for this. He smiled and said, "Of course we will negotiate with your uncle to see the situation, and then report to Emperor Yuliang."
"You still have to go back to find the Jade Liang Emperor!"
He Baiding's eyes widened, thinking that he had lost his mind and turned back even though he knew that the man was not a good person.
Le Xunyuan explained patiently: "I also know that Emperor Yuliang is not a kind-hearted person. Because of this, we cannot let the wonders of the mountains and seas fall into his hands.
In addition, my command key is actually of no use to him. The more command keys he gets, the stronger he will be in the eyes of other contestants, and the more people will fear him, and the greater the resistance to Kaicheng will be."
"Don't you think the trees are beautiful in the forest and the wind will destroy them?"
What he said was clear-cut and righteous, and he seemed to really have the world in mind.
Others didn't know it, but He Baiding believed it anyway, so he slapped Le Xunyuan on the back of the head.
"Be righteous and not afraid of danger. I really saw you right!"
The force of this slap was a bit strong, and Le Xunyuan was unprepared and stumbled forward two steps, feeling secretly angry.
'Just wait for me, and sooner or later I'll beat you... hard!'
...
...
In Yiqingjiangshan Tower, Ling Boying boasted about Ying Wuqian's bravery and fearlessness, while Yuanyang Jing pretended to be nothing and agreed with him.
"From today on, I will be the young master's biggest fan."
Ling Boying announced loudly, looking at Ying Wuqian with eyes full of admiration and love.
"what about me?"
Ji Kunpeng smiled and joined in the fun.
"Uncle, you have to stand back a little!"
Ling Boying waved his hand at him and insisted on his position.
She was so direct that Ying Wuqian was embarrassed and a little embarrassed. After all, the actual situation was not what she saw.
"Oh, Ji is such a failure!"
Ji Kunpeng pretended to be helpless and shook his head, looking at Hongchen Xue covered with laughter.
Amidst the laughter, Ying Wuqian coughed slightly and applied to Hongchenxue: "Sister, I have an appointment with Shengsi to write an exegesis of scriptures. Can I go out for a while?"
Hongchenxue nodded in agreement.
"Go for it!"
"Then I'll go!"
Ying Wuqian turned around and took no more than two steps when a joke came from behind him.
"Yeah~ When did our little brother have such a good relationship with Shengsi?"
Stopping, Ying Wuqian turned around and saw Ji Kunpeng hugging his sister and looking at him teasingly.
"Don't you know whether I have a good relationship with Shengsi?"
With a vein on his forehead bulging, Ying Wuqian snorted coldly, rolled up his sleeves and left.
Ji Kunpeng's loud laughter could be heard from behind, and the laughter did not stop until he left Jiangshan Tower.
After the laughter stopped, the Jiangshan Building was very quiet and the atmosphere was strange.
Yuanyang Jing felt a little uncomfortable and said proactively: "The tea is cold. I'll make another pot for you."
"Let Ling Boying go, stay Yuanyang Jing!"
Hongchenxue suddenly spoke.
Yuanyang Jing's movements froze, and there was a feeling of impending disaster.
"okay!"
Ling Boying was so immersed in his thoughts about corresponding with Wu Qian that he didn't notice anything and turned around to make tea.
After she left, Hongchenxue just looked at Yuanyang Mirror coldly.
Yuanyangjing couldn't remember how long she hadn't seen this look before, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe.
Does the master know that I betrayed the young master?
Yuanyang Jing thought to herself, but when she raised her head, she met Hongchenxue's eyes. Her heart trembled as she saw a bit of grievance and pain in Hongchenxue's eyes.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Hongchenxue said with red eyes.
"Miss......"
After some struggle, he finally fell in love with Hongchenxue more than anything else. Yuanyang Jing showed a hint of bitterness and said, "Actually, I am the sister of King Langyun of Wudu. I am the undercover agent placed by Emperor Yuliang beside you. I have been working for Emperor Yuliang."
Pass on your news, this time the Yuliang Emperor not only kidnapped me in exchange for the Bahong Key in the young master’s hand, but also asked me about the origins of my uncle and the young master, and I... told them!"
"Miss, please kill me!"
After saying that, Yuanyang Jing closed his eyes as if he had put down a big stone, and his whole body felt much more relaxed.
Seeing all the changes in Yuanyang Jing's expression, Ji Kunpeng thought to himself.
'It seems that what the Yuliang Emperor said in the original drama is right, Yuanyang Jing is deeply in love with Hongchenxue... This is actually interesting.'
Yuanyang Jing talks about men all day long, but actually likes women. Ling Boying doesn't like men on the surface, but the reality is the opposite.
Stopping thinking, Ji Kun Pengrao looked at the Yuanyang Mirror with interest.
Multiple love rivals are interesting!
The contemplation only lasted for a moment. Here, Hongchenxue took Yuanyang Jing's hand and said softly: "Fool, in fact, you have always been having a hard time making a decision."
I thought it would be a disappointment and accusation, but what I didn't expect were words of concern. Yuanyang Jing opened her eyes in disbelief, "Miss, don't you blame me?"
"If you hadn't confessed just now, then our sisters would have come to an end." Hong Chenxue pretended to be angry.
"Hehe, there is nothing to say about this. In fact, my uncle has known about it for a long time. He used this to threaten me before I could meet with the lady."
Yuanyang Jing said with a smile, but tears couldn't stop flowing down.
Hongchenxue stretched out her hand to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes, and said with a half-smile, "Yeah, he was the one who told me that you were an undercover agent."
Ga!
Yuanyang Jing's laughter suddenly disappeared, and his head turned to Ji Kunpeng little by little.
"oops!"
Ji Kunpeng secretly thought that something was wrong, and unfolded his folding fan to block her sight.
