All eight of them had changed their clothes and were sitting in a corner of the restaurant lobby, which was not inconspicuous.
Listening to gossip and having a meal at the same time makes people feel happy.
In the midst of joy, a group of people wearing foreign costumes walked into the restaurant. They looked tough and looked arrogant. The waiter bowed to welcome them and went upstairs.
"Are these foreigners coming to congratulate you? The enthronement ceremony has already passed, why are they still in Changjing?" Su Wu muttered.
Wei Li looked away from that direction, "There will be a farewell banquet in the palace in two days, and then they can leave. These royal family's red tapes have to be followed even if they don't like it."
"Were those killers from the Imperial Ancestral Temple the ones they brought?" Su An patted Wei Li on the shoulder sympathetically, "If a dog bites you, you have to give him a bone to say it doesn't hurt. Alas, it's not easy to sit in a high position. Just hold it in."
Su Wen smiled sullenly at the table.
Bai Yu shook his head and shoulders, and the two adults held his forehead.
The corner of Wei Li's mouth twitched. Senior brother, is this a response to him or to him?
Night is falling.
Changjing City is brightly lit and bustling again.
In a private house in an alley of Dongshi, Tianbao ate a bowl of sweet rice wine, washed himself, turned off the lights, and prepared to take a rest.
A figure suddenly flashed outside the window.
Tianbao tilted his head and chased outside.
Two figures, one in front and one behind, flew on the walls and eaves of the alley, trampling on the lights of thousands of houses under their feet.
It wasn't until they reached the palace road that the black figure in night clothes in front stopped and turned around, pulled off his mask, and raised his lips at the girl chasing behind him, "Senior sister, my Qinggong has not deteriorated in these years, has it?"
Tianbao jumped in front of him, the soft moonlight fell on her slightly raised white face, "Are you here to compete with me in Qinggong?"
If she hadn't recognized him, she would have split him in half.
Silly boy, alas.
"..." Wei Li pretended not to see the same sympathy on the girl's face, and raised his head back, "Come with me, I will take you to have fun."
"playing what?"
"You'll know when you go."
Tianbao looked confused, and followed the young man who could walk through the palace gates openly but insisted on taking her over the palace wall, twisting and turning in the palace to avoid the patrolling guards.
Finally, we settled on the eaves of a towering palace.
Looking at the sneaky young man who dragged her to hide in the shadow of the roof, Tianbao couldn't help but said, "What are you doing? This is your own home. What do you want with just one order? You don't need to be a thief?"
"Shh!" The young man used his index finger to carefully lift the tiles at his feet, "That's different. We've been separated in these years, and I don't get to do any of the fun things."
A small hole was opened in the tile, revealing the scene below, and the jewels were blinding.
He turned around, his eyes shining brightly under the night sky, "I want to steal something from my senior sister."
Tianbao, "..." Is she used to this problem or not?
After living for more than ten years, this was the first time that she encountered someone who stole her own things with such excitement and twists and turns.
Looking into the young man's expectant eyes, Tianbao sighed.
Forget it, who asked him to call her senior sister?
Tianbao waved the boy out of the way, leaned down and looked down from the hole, "I'll get you whatever you want."
In the corridor below, the patrolling guards happened to pass by. The leader was alert and quickly raised his head to look at the roof.
Wei Li made a silent gesture, and the team leader immediately lowered his head and led the team straight away, pretending not to see anything.
"This is the inner treasury. It stores the emperor's personal finances, all left over from previous dynasties. I have just ascended the throne and have not gone in to check the items." Wei Li looked at the girl's serious back, a little nervous, "Rare things should be Quite a few. Doesn’t Grandpa Du like to collect medicinal materials? Beautiful jewelry can be brought to grandma, aunt, and aunt to make them happy. Master likes calligraphy treasures——"
He counted them one by one. Before he finished speaking, the girl straightened up and handed him a jade-inlaid dagger. "The emperor's collection of daggers should be pretty good. You should hold it for self-defense. Don't really get bitten by a dog."
"..." A familiar sense of frustration spread in his heart, and Wei Li tried again and suggested, "Sister, if you don't like this, can I take you to the armory?"
Tianbao raised his eyes, saw the disappointment hidden in his eyes, and patted him on the shoulder, "Want to have fun? Follow me."
After saying that, the girl took the lead and jumped out.
Under the moonlight, the high ponytail is flying in the wind, and the back is free and easy.
Wei Lixin's hair was warm and he raised his lips to follow.
…
After Hai hour, the lights in the city were extinguished one by one.
The diplomatic posthouse located in the West City also began to quiet down. The lighting lanterns hanging outside the gate of the posthouse swayed in the night wind, giving off a dim glow.
Most of the people in the museum had gone to bed, and only three or two rooms still had lights on.
There was a faint sound of chattering in one of the rooms.
"The grand ceremony for Emperor Xuan Jing's enthronement has been completed. It's such a pity... We will leave in a few days. Sir, will he put any obstacles in the way to stop us?"
"He doesn't dare. The envoys from the surrounding countries are all here. No matter who he stops, the others will not watch. This time we are in a relationship of advance and retreat. If Emperor Xuan Jing is really so ignorant, it will be equivalent to destroying all his neighbors at once. Offend the light.”
"That's what I say, but the temperament of those people who came from the penal colony is unpredictable, and they may not care about this."
"This is what Emperor Xuanjing should have a headache for. Something happened to the envoys who came to congratulate him in Dai Viet, and all the countries can directly attack Dai Viet and send troops without even making excuses! Should they control their own people, or should they wait to be attacked by the various countries? When it comes to crusade against a country, he should decide for himself what is light and what is important."
While the people in the house were talking without hesitation, a colorless and odorless smoke spread quietly throughout the post house.
Tianbao hid in the shadow of the outer wall of the courtyard, waved his hand, patted his confused junior brother on the shoulder, and made a gesture: slip away!
Wei Li was really confused the whole time.
He thought that his senior sister had brought him here to steal the envoy's things.
The result is that he came to kill people and steal goods?
Following the girl away from the outer wall of the post house and jumping onto the roof of a high-rise store on the opposite street, Wei Li was pulled down again.
"Sister, are we here to see how they die?"
"Um."
"..."
Hearing this, Wei Li looked towards the post house over there.
Since Tianbao wants to kill them, let him kill them. He will find a way to deal with what happens next.
Soon there was noise over there, a quarrel. The noise became more and more intense, and finally there was a fight.
Immediately afterwards, more people joined the fight, and swords came out. As time passed, each one fired their anger and killed the red eyes.
Wei Li looked stunned for a moment.
"Da Viet can't take action. They are killing each other. The crime shouldn't be pinned on Dai Viet, right? I will leave a few alive and go back to report." Tianbao looked over there and said in a clear voice, "Even if they continue to make excuses When dealing with Dai Viet, there will be rifts and internal strife in private. No one can have an easy time."
"Senior sister——"
The girl looked back, "If these dogs bite you, I will cut off a piece of their flesh. You don't have to hold your breath."
Looking into the girl's bright eyes, Wei Li curled up his fingers unconsciously, feeling something warm and swollen in his chest.
He knew that Tianbao always protected his own people and had no other intentions.
It was him... his heartbeat suddenly became chaotic.
