"How dare you! How dare you call that gentleman by his first name? Are you tired of living?" the guard shouted loudly.
"I think you are the one who is impatient!" Chen Xing's voice was fierce, even more fierce than the other party. He indeed made a slip of the tongue and accidentally called Aaliyah by her title, but he didn't intend to show weakness. Anyway, he had already stepped into the coffin board with one foot. He might not come out after he got in. There was no need to do this to a little guy. So humble.
"If you don't go and report it quickly, you will delay the important matter of that adult, so be careful with your head!"
Probably frightened by Chen Xing's strong attitude, the guard was stunned and didn't react for a long time. In the Red Dragon Dukedom, "that lord" is the nickname of the demon princess Aaliya, and even the Red Dragon Duke dare not call her by her first name.
The man in front of me is either extremely powerful, or he has a brain problem and is looking for short-sightedness.
The matter was so important that the guards did not dare to make decisions without authorization. After a brief hesitation, they went in and reported to the officers on duty.
"Captain, there is someone outside who wants to see that gentleman." The guard hesitated for a moment and then added, "I don't know why, but he actually called that gentleman by his first name and said he wanted to see the demon princess."
The officer on duty frowned and cursed without thinking, "Where did the wild dog come from? Get rid of it!"
"Yes!" The guard stood at attention, saluted, turned and left.
"Wait..." But before he could walk out of the door, he was called back again.
The officer on duty frowned and thought hard, as if he had encountered a major decision. It took him a while to make a decision, "Let's do this. You can stabilize the other party first, and I'll report it."
That adult has a weird personality, thinks out of the box, and often plays cards that don't follow common sense. God knows if he has made friends with any strange people. If the other party really has a background, he, the captain on duty, cannot afford to take the responsibility. To put it bluntly, even if the other party has a problem, he is just a messenger.
With that adult's character of not wanting to take revenge overnight, if the other person offends her, she will kill him on the spot, and the anger will not spread to him.
After thinking clearly, the officer on duty jogged all the way to Qianzhu Hall, adjusted his military uniform at the door, lifted the big copper ring on the door, and knocked gently.
"Come in."
The eldest princess's magnetic voice sounded inside. The officer on duty couldn't help but feel in his heart. She was indeed the princess of Qingcheng. Even if there were only two words, there was a feeling of ecstasy.
He calmed down, took a deep breath, drove all the thoughts out of his mind, then pushed open a gap and walked in.
Anyone who can hang out in the royal city would have been kicked out long ago if they were not mentally determined enough. Eliminating distracting thoughts in one second, resisting temptation in one second, and weighing the pros and cons in one second are all basic qualities.
Women who are beautiful and have high status are the most difficult to serve. Excessive attention will be regarded as disrespectful, and no attention at all will be regarded as disrespectful. The former does not respect their personality, and the latter does not respect their beauty. Anyway, they are dead.
Therefore, it is said that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Only by being impartial and grasping the scale as thin as a silk thread in the middle can we do this job well.
This is a delicate job that rivals that of a watchmaker. Not just anyone can guard the gate of the Red Fort. If you don’t have a sweet heart, you’re just waiting to be thrown into the moat to feed the crocodiles!
The silent hall was filled with candlelight.
"There is a young man outside who calls himself Chen Xing, requesting an audience."
The sound echoed through the dome. The officer on duty knelt on one knee, lowered his head slightly, his eyes stayed on the three pairs of jade feet, and did not dare to look around.
"What did you say his name was?"
After a few seconds, a confused voice came from above.
The voice was clear and bright, like an oriole out of the valley, making people feel comfortable. It was the adult who was asking the question.
The officer on duty subconsciously raised his head and saw three stunning beauties on the high platform with surprised expressions. He was immediately shocked. The name "Chen Xing" actually moved three women at the peak of power in the Northern Alliance at the same time. It could even be said that they were a bit rude.
You know, big shots are emotionally restrained and remain calm. They will never reveal their inner feelings easily, leaving no one guessing what they are thinking.
But now, they couldn't hide their thoughts, and their surprise was written on their faces.
This is not a gaffe, so what is it?
Cold sweat broke out on the officer's back. He was very glad that he was cautious and did not drive the other person away without asking. Otherwise, he might not even know how he died.
I can't help but wonder in my heart, what kind of man can make the devil princess, the eldest princess, and the great priest move the three most powerful, powerful, and beautiful women at the same time?
As a man, I really don’t even dare to dream about it.
"Chen Xing, he said his name is Chen Xing." The officer on duty suppressed his thoughts and repeated.
In an instant, the three women on the high platform all showed different expressions.
The great priest Ye Yang Bailiu frowned slightly, seeming a little worried. The eldest princess Lacey showed hatred on her face, clenching her silver teeth and clenching her hands, as if she hated the other person so much that even her knuckles were a little white.
Demon Princess Aaliya's expression was the most complicated. First her eyes lit up, as if she was very surprised, then she narrowed her eyes slightly, with murderous intent. After a while, her eyes rolled again, as if she had thought of some strange idea, and then the corner of her mouth curled up. Curved, showing a sly smile.
Although the expressions of the three adults are completely different, they all point to the same point - this person is very important!
Let me ask, if it doesn’t have enough weight, can it make the eldest princess hate it?
Hatred means wanting to kill the other person but not being able to. With a status like the eldest princess, there is nothing she can do. You can imagine how high her status is.
As for the worries of the great priest, it is even more frightening.
And the three changes in the adult's expression almost made him wonder if he was dreaming. It didn't feel real at all. If he wasn't facing three adults and didn't dare to make unnecessary moves, he would have wanted to slap himself to see if he would wake up.
When he finished repeating the other person's name, the candle-lit hall fell into deathly silence, as if you could hear a pin drop.
He was uneasy and kept his eyes on the ground, not daring to look around.
The time became extremely long, as if after a century, a faint voice finally sounded from the throne.
"Let him in."
The officer on duty suddenly felt as if he was receiving a general amnesty. He nodded and saluted, then stood up and went out to call for help.
After a while, Chen Xing came to the door, grabbed the copper ring and knocked on the door.
"Dong dong..."
A heavy knock echoed through the hall.
Usually it was Lacey who opened the door and allowed the person who knocked on the door to enter, but this time she didn't seem to hear her. She stared straight ahead, her beautiful face expressionless.
"Oh, by the way..." Aaliyah, who was sitting on the throne, seemed to have remembered something and looked around, "My dear friends, the scene that is waiting may be a little bloody, so you'd better avoid it..."
In an instant, Lacey's eyes widened, and the indifferent expression on her face was almost unbearable. Her fists were clenched white, and her palms were about to bleed from her nails.
What is bloody?
Is there a worse excuse than this?
We just met, and I want to drive her away!
Lacey's chest rose and fell, her breathing became more rapid, and there was strong hatred in her eyes.
What's even more hateful is that Aaliyah's attention is not on her at all, but is staring at the door intently, the expectation in her eyes is not concealed.
"Then I'll go back first."
Ye Yang Bailiu on the opposite side nodded and saluted, stepped off the platform first, and walked towards the door. Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, although Lacey was unwilling to do so, she was unable to stop it. In the end, she gritted her teeth and walked straight down the platform without saying hello to Aaliyah.
Outside the hall door, Chen Xingzheng hesitated to knock again because half a minute had passed and there was no response from inside.
"Clang!"
The door suddenly opened, and it was Ye Yang Bailiu who walked out.
The two looked at each other without saying hello or speaking.
As he passed by, Ye Yang Bailiu turned his head slightly and gave him a meaningful expression.
Because Ye Yang Bailiu was more than half a head taller than him, and the distance between the two was so close that they could smell the faint fragrance of each other, so their eyes were looking down, full of condescending pressure.
This hit Chen Xingru hard because this expression was so terrifying. He remembered that the last time he saw such an expression was at the underground training ground in Beiqiao Town, when Ye Yang Bailiu wanted to kill him...
Okay, I'll explain this later after surviving.
As for how to explain it, I haven't figured it out yet...
Worrying about gains and losses, Chen Xing took a step forward and prepared to enter.
Suddenly, the vision dimmed, and a tall figure came out. His figure was similar to that of Ye Yang Bailiu, but slightly slender, and also half a head taller than him. Chen Xing was caught off guard and almost bumped into someone else's chest. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and stopped in time.
The two of them were less than five centimeters apart, and the fragrance was fragrant, a rich lily perfume.
However, Chen Xing was not in the mood to taste the incense. Lacey Maris was staring at him from close range, her teeth clenched, and the murderous intent in her eyes was undisguised.
As a counterattack, Chen Xing raised his eyebrows at Lacey, with an unruly feeling of "I don't care".
Lacey's chest suddenly heaved, and the murderous intent in her eyes became even stronger, as if she was about to spit out fire.
The two of them also had no communication and just passed by each other.
After two short episodes, Chen Xing walked into the hall.
The light inside is a little dim. Due to the air flow when the door opened, the candlelight flickered, and for a moment it was like a group of demons dancing, with swaying shadows everywhere on the floor and walls.
Chen Xing walked straight to the high platform and looked up at the person on the throne.
If anyone saw this scene, they would definitely think he was crazy. When he saw the true king, he refused to kneel down. Even the principal prince did not dare to do so.
Chen Xing's idea is very simple, that is his woman, the man is superior to the woman, there is no reason for a husband to kneel down to his wife. And the other party is likely to kill him. If you want to kill him, what's the point of kneeling down? You're going to die anyway, so why do you do something that makes you unhappy? If the other party doesn't kill him, then he can't kneel down. Otherwise, how can we get along with him in the future?
The face on the throne still looked like the seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl when they first met her.
She has a pure appearance, like the girl next door, but there is a mature charm in her eyebrows. She obviously looks young, but her figure is enchanting. She is small in places that should be small, and big in places that should be big. That flash of shock, as white as the first snow, is even more captivating and leads people to commit crimes.
However, she is different now than she was then.
His appearance has not changed at all, as if time cannot carve traces on it, but there is an indescribable feeling of strangeness, as if there is a chasm between them, an abyss beneath their feet, and the end of the world just around the corner.
"Remember what I said?"
A faint voice came from the throne.
"Remember." Chen Xing nodded.
"Then you have figured it out and come here to die?" Aaliyah crossed her legs, crossed her white calves, leaned forward slightly, and looked at Chen Xing condescendingly. The ruby eyes shimmered, and the pressure suddenly came like a landslide and a tsunami.
Chen Xing suffered from severe scalp pain, and the danger of death was overwhelming. His legs could not help but tremble, and he could hardly stand still.
