After a while, the soldiers in the canyon left and returned.
And brought back the veiled woman.
The latter seemed to be in a very embarrassed state, with only two guards and one maid left around him. He looked frightened and his face was pale.
"My lord, the man has been rescued, but the carriage has been destroyed."
A soldier stepped forward and replied.
Lin Bai nodded, "As long as they are fine, chase the moon and get some hot water to calm their shock."
"It's my uncle!"
Zhuiyue immediately gave the order, and soon someone came over with hot water.
"Thanks!"
The veiled woman glanced at Lin Bai without saying anything extra.
Lin Bai was not interested in talking nonsense with the other party.
Just like that, not long after, the sound of fighting in the canyon gradually stopped. King Ganfan led a group of soldiers back quickly and captured a few people alive. They looked like bandits.
"Brother-in-law, they are said to be bandits from the nearby mountains. There are many of them, but their combat effectiveness is simply meager."
"Killed some, most of the rest ran away, and these are the only ones left."
The Ganfanwang said carelessly.
His so-called poor fighting ability is naturally compared to that of the royal guards.
These royal guards are equipped with the most sophisticated weapons, not to mention Zhuge Liannu, and explosives, which others cannot compare to.
Not to mention bandits.
However, the bandit actually dared to ambush him, which was very courageous.
Isn't it intentional, just a coincidence?
Yan Gang took people down for questioning and soon returned, "Uncle, I have already asked. At first, he said he was robbing people on the road, but later he changed his story and said he was collecting money to do things."
Collect money to do things?
Lin Bai was startled? If they were just blocking the road and robbing, it would still be acceptable. Mountain bandits were just doing these kinds of things, but collecting money to do things was a bit outrageous.
Someone bought their own life?
Just these bandits? Do you look down on your brother too much?
Lin Bai was not arrogant. His reputation had already spread during the Hexi battle. Those who wanted his life behind the scenes would be too childish if they just bribed some bandits.
Could it be that these people are not here for you?
Subconsciously, he glanced at the veiled woman not far away.
The veiled woman seemed to have heard the voice here, her eyes flickering a little.
interesting!
What kind of plane is this Li Changzhi doing? Who are the people here? The majestic King of Southwest actually worked as a bodyguard for someone?
Lin Bai didn't care about it, and the team took a break before getting back on the road.
Because she lost the carriage, the veiled woman could only follow the team. Moreover, she was very frightened before and she was a weak woman. The maid next to her wanted to speak several times, but she was held back.
Lin Bai shook his head, forget it!
He immediately stopped the team, looked at the woman and said, "If you don't mind, you can take the king's carriage!"
The veiled woman was obviously startled.
Lin Bai ignored her and went straight to find a horse.
Looking at his retreating figure, Cuizhu muttered, "Madam, he doesn't look that bad after all."
The carriage was traveling along the way, and on this day, a huge Buddha statue appeared in sight.
The Buddha statue is carved from the entire cliff and is dozens of feet high.
Magnificent.
There were many believers worshiping Buddha around.
Lin Bai was filled with admiration. Zhuiyue also had bright eyes. Such a tall Buddha statue was really rare.
Yan Gang explained: "Sister, this is the Lingyun Buddha. Wanxiang Kingdom, like Dali, both believe in Buddhism. The Buddhist culture of the two countries is prosperous. It is precisely because of this that the relationship is better than that of other countries."
Lin Bai nodded and didn't care.
Putting all this aside, Duan Zhenglong's relationship alone is destined to not go so smoothly.
Fortunately, there were no more troubles along the way. The only sad thing was that the carriage was given to the veiled woman, and the talented man could only ride a horse. With his current body and bones, riding a horse was a trivial matter. The key is not to bully Zhui Yue. This is a bit Sad.
Fortunately, when the team takes a break, Zhuiyue will be very obedient and satisfy his uncle's various perverted needs.
On this day, the team has almost arrived at the capital of Vientiane.
Yan Gang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Uncle, there is news from the southwest that His Highness the Second Highness and Han Wenqing are on a mission to Wanxiang Kingdom. According to the time, they should be arriving at the capital of Wanxiang Kingdom soon."
Good guy!
This is really no way to survive! What about Lao Zhu?
I didn’t rebel. Are you forcing me to rebel?
Zhuiyue's expression also became ugly, and his silver teeth chattered.
Seeing her like this, Lin Bai could only smile and said: "Forget it, just come! If the deal doesn't work out, we'll go home."
Zhuiyue said "hmm", but his expression was still very ugly.
The capital of Vientiane.
royal palace.
All the courtiers were noisy.
Compared with ordinary people, these courtiers have heard some rumors about the identity of the great talent. After all, what happened in Loulan Kingdom is not a secret. Although His Majesty Li Chao has not made it public yet, judging from the current situation, it is already obvious.
"Your Majesty, Li Chao intends to suppress Lin Qingfeng. This is a perfect opportunity. As long as we reach an agreement, Lin Qingfeng will be nothing more than a trapped beast, no matter how powerful he is."
"That's right! Lin Qingfeng hurts our soldiers, so we must show him some shame."
"That's wrong. Since Lin Qingfeng has broken up with Li Chao and is willing to come up with the cement and fertilizer formula, why don't we join forces with him to contain Li Chao."
"I agree that cement is crucial to urban defense construction, and fertilizers are even more important for increasing food production."
"..."
The huge court has everything you need.
Cement and fertilizer formulas, these two huge temptations, undoubtedly won many supporters for the talented man.
King Ling Shanyue of Vientiane also had a hint of desire in his eyes.
Although he has never been to the southwest, everyone knows about the development of the southwest during this period, and these two things do make him a little eager.
However, there was not much movement on his face. He turned to Prime Minister Liu Yuanlang and asked, "What do Liu Aiqing think?"
Liu Yuanlang came out and said: "Back to your majesty, it depends on who you think is the greater threat. Before, Wanxiang Dali and Li Chao were living in peace and harmony. Until Lin Qingfeng came, the situation in the southwest changed suddenly. Lin Qingfeng , is the biggest variable in the Southwest and must be suppressed."
"Liu Xiangyan is right. Now the best opportunity is to unite the three countries and suppress Lin Qingfeng."
Many courtiers agreed.
Ling Shanyue also nodded, this is indeed the truth.
Originally, the major chieftains in the southwest were entrenched and posed no threat to Wanxiang Kingdom and Dali. However, now, the southwest has become a monolith and is developing rapidly, which has put both countries under great pressure, especially the previous battle in the southwest.
However, he did not rush to make a decision, but looked at Shi Kezhong, the censor doctor, "What do Shi Aiqing think?"
Shi Kezhong's hair was gray and his eyes were shrewd, "Your Majesty, I think they are the ones who should be anxious right now. In that case, why not let them fight to the death first and let's wait and see what happens?"
"Although cement and fertilizer are hard to come by, there might be some bargaining chips for leaving the DPRK?"
Ling Shanyue's eyes lit up slightly.
