Chapter 324 Which No. 1 Assassin?
In the tent of the Liaocheng army commander, it was as quiet as midnight and as cold as winter.
Two thoughts popped up in Shi Li's mind at the same time -
One is that Emperor Ling of Wei was really crazy. She was his cousin, and even in ancient times, intermarriage was absolutely not allowed!
The second thought was, if Xuan Yi attacked the messenger now, should she stop him or not?
Obviously, Qi Yong had been through many battles and his ability to respond was a little better than hers. He winked at Sun Jianchen and said, "Take the envoy out. Liaocheng will not negotiate peace."
"Yes." Sun Jianchen was an old man with great foresight. He also sensed that something was wrong in the atmosphere in the main tent. He glanced at Xuan Yi nervously.
When two armies are fighting, they do not kill envoys. He was also afraid that Xuan Yi would break the rules by not playing by the rules.
Xuan Yi, who was worried about by everyone, actually had no intention of killing the messenger.
This is like a dog biting someone. It is useless to beat the dog. The one who should be beaten is the dog's owner.
Xuan Yi's smile remained on his face, and he even had the leisure to gaze at Shi Li's long hair, secretly thinking about what kind of bun he should make for her next time.
"Wait, wait!" The messenger was about to cry at this moment.
There were still some scouts stationed outside the imperial capital, who had already passed on the news that there was a master following Shi Li. Now they saw that it must be the gorgeous young man in red.
But he represented Emperor Ling of Wei, and he had to get things done even if it meant his death.
The messenger gritted his teeth and took out a letter from his sleeve, "Princess, this is what His Majesty ordered me to give you."
The atmosphere in the tent became even more ferocious, and this time even Qi Yong could hardly hold back.
But the letter was for Shi Li, and no one could make the decision for her.
Shi Li widened her eyes slightly. Having confirmed that Emperor Wei Ling was no longer normal, she did not want to be involved in any way and cast a look directly at Xuan Yi.
Xuan Yi smiled slightly and unsheathed his sword.
Of course, what was wanted was not the waiter's life, but the letter in his hand.
If you didn't see it with your own eyes, no one would believe that a long sword could lift a thin envelope so easily.
The others only saw a flash of sword before their eyes, and the letter in the messenger's hand went directly into Xuan Yi's hands.
He held the letter and looked at Shi Li, who was still looking at him with trust.
Although the two of them didn't say a word, everyone could feel the trust they had in each other.
The waiter completed his mission and did not dare to stay for another second. He hurried out and Sun Jianchen followed him out.
Qi Yong was left alone. He glanced at Shi Li vaguely and then walked out as well.
The main account was left to Shi Li.
Xuan Yi raised his hand and stroked the end of her eyebrows, then opened the letter with his fingertips.
He read the entire letter quickly, uttered a short chuckle, and then crushed the letter into powder in his hands.
"You don't need to read this nonsense." He shook off the powder stuck on his palms and pulled Shi Li to his side. "Give me the tiger talisman and I'll take you to the northern frontier to see the desert."
"Will you charge me?" Shi Li leaned towards him and asked vigilantly.
Xuan Yi laughed out loud, which was rare for him. He gently kissed her brow and eyelids, and whispered, "Take a lot."
Shi Li closed her eyes helplessly. She knew that there was no free lunch in this world.
Forget it.
[Am I the only one curious about what the Crazy Emperor wrote? Xuan Yi looked a little angry~]
[The name Crazy Emperor is very appropriate, so I don’t think Xuan Yi is angry at all.]
[Crazy Emperor: Danger! Danger! Danger! ]
There are still three days before the handover of the tiger talisman, so Shi Li and Xuan Yi stay in the military camp for the time being.
Late at night, Shi Li lay down on the couch as usual, and Xuan Yi sat under the couch holding a sword.
He was waiting for her to fall asleep.
She was waiting for him to lose patience.
Finally, at midnight, Xuan Yi's helpless voice rang out in the darkness, "Are you still not asleep?"
"I'm asleep, what are you going to do?" Shi Li sat up, her long hair draped over her body like a night veil, and looked at Xuan Yi intently.
From the very beginning, she never thought that Xuan Yi would remain indifferent when facing the madman Emperor Wei Ling.
She knew too well what kind of person Xuan Yi was.
Compared with the completely insane Emperor Wei Ling, Xuan Yi's sinister nature hidden beneath his smile is no less severe.
Thinking of this, Shi Li felt annoyed and didn't want to play guessing game with Xuan Yi.
"Xuan Yi, if you make sure you can come back alive, I won't stop you."
After saying that, she simply lay down again and pulled the quilt to cover her head in angrily.
If Xuan Yi really wanted to do something, she couldn't stop him, but she had to at least warn him and think about the consequences.
She has no intention of becoming a widow yet.
