Ren Ruyi turned to look at her: "What you can't guarantee is mostly a yes answer."

Xiao Yuxi remembered that when she was still at the Hexian Post House, she went to Tianmen Pass and did not return all night.

After returning, Ren Ruyi asked her if she would go against them.

Xiao Yuxi replied: I can’t guarantee it.

Many things happened after that.

She originally thought that this incident was over, but she never thought that Ren Ruyi was still thinking about her.

Xiao Yuxi stopped straightening the folds of his sleeves and dusted off the non-existent dust on his clothes.

She leaned forward and got closer to Ren Ruyi: "I never said I wanted to leave!"

"What? You want to drive me away?"

Ren Ruyi stretched out her hand to push Xiao Yuxi away and got on the bed.

She did not answer the joke: "Go out, I want to rest."

Xiao Yuxi glanced at Ren Ruyi, she smiled, got up and left the camp.

When she walked out of the tent, the smile on her face gradually faded.

She looked in the direction of Andu, a glimmer of light seemed to flash in her eyes, and she didn't know what she was thinking.



Two days later.

Led by the introduction envoy from Anguo, the Wuguo delegation successfully arrived in Andu and checked into the Siyi Pavilion.

The second prince's cronies stumbled on the way and ordered people to pour swill and throw rotten vegetable leaves on the envoys from the second floor.

Ning Yuanzhou, Qian Zhao, Yuan Lu, Yu Shisan, and Sun Lang were dressed in Liudaotang formal attire.

They rode tall horses and moved in unison. The blue-black cloaks behind them returned all the dirty things while dancing.

This show of force was not successful.

Zhu Yin held up an umbrella to cover Li Tongguang, but a rotten vegetable leaf fell on his shoulder.

The people on both sides of the street sighed.

"Look at it this way, this prince is better than his brother when he enters the city!"

"Yeah yeah!"

Siyi Pavilion.

After Li Tongguang sent the people from the delegation, he turned around and faced everyone: "I have successfully brought you all to Andu, and I, the envoy, can deliver the mission."

"Please stay at Siyi Pavilion. The young minister of Honglu Temple who came with me will come every three days."

"If anything happens, just ask him."

He said that and left.

Yang Ying stopped her: "Wait a minute."

Li Tongguang stopped.

Yang Ying's voice was low: "What do you mean, Young Master, coming here once every three days? Shouldn't the leader of your country summon the orphan immediately?"

When Li Tongguang heard this, he did not turn to look at Yang Ying.

He looked forward and said with a half-smile: "Your Highness also knows that the Holy One has summoned you to see you."

"If you want to see someone, you will naturally be called; if you are not called, you will naturally not be seen!"

"Farewell."

Li Tongguang walked towards the entrance of Siyi Pavilion, and when passing by Ren Ruyi, he finally reminded in a low voice: "Zhu Yiwei has changed several batches over the years, but there are many people who have seen you, so I hope you will be more careful. "

Ren Ruyi didn't respond.

Li Tongguang glanced at Xiao Yuxi beside her and quickly looked away.

He passed through the crowd of envoys and left directly.

Yang Ying looked at Li Tongguang's retreating back.

She frowned slightly and sighed: "I really don't like this Marquis Changqing. He is always inexplicable and unpredictable."

Ning Yuanzhou walked to Yang Ying and explained in a low voice: "We will cooperate with him in private, and he will come over secretly to deliver the message later."

"That was also a common tactic used by enemy countries to welcome envoys. They would cool down and temper their tempers first. This is normal."

Yang Ying nodded: "That's right, it's just a misunderstanding."

Ning Yuanzhou told Yang Ying not to be impatient and take a good rest first.

He led several people from Liudaotang to clean up the informants inside and outside Siyi Hall.

After all, it was the first night in Andu.

In order to ensure Yang Ying's safety, Ning Yuanzhou asked Ren Ruyi and Xiao Yuxi to live with Yang Ying and protect her at all times, just like when they passed by Tianxing Gorge before.

That night, the second watch.

Yang Ying was lying on the bed, already asleep.

Ren Ruyi sat at the table, resting his head on one hand and sleeping lightly.

Xiao and Xi leaned back on the imperial chair, closing their eyes and falling asleep.

Yuanlu suddenly knocked on the door and said he was coming from Anguo Palace.

Yang Ying was woken up. She was lying beside the bed in her middle coat, with a little annoyance in her eyes: "Now?"

Yuanlu responded: "Yes."

Ren Ruyi and Xiao Yuxi looked at each other, then stood up and walked out of the house, leaving room for Yang Ying to get dressed.

After a while, Yang Ying walked out neatly dressed in a bright yellow formal suit.

In the inner courtyard.

The palace supervisor followed Emperor An's oral instructions and ordered King Li to come to the palace to see him.

Master Du and Ning Yuanzhou argued for a while, but to no avail.

People under the eaves have to bow their heads.

Yang Ying agreed, and the internal prison officer took the people away.

Master Du took people to prepare, and Ning Yuanzhou, Ren Ruyi, Yang Ying, Xiao and Xi were left there.

Ren Ruyi handed Yang Ying a fire certificate.

Ning Yuanzhou patted Yang Ying's shoulder soothingly, and his tone was extremely gentle, but very safe: "Your Highness, there is no need to worry, we will always be waiting outside."

"After you enter the palace and confirm that it is safe, I will release the butterfly that Yuanlu gave you."

Yang Ying took the fire certificate, nodded towards Ning Yuanzhou, and then turned to look at Xiao Yuxi.

Xiao Yuxi smiled nonchalantly and said, "Your Highness, do you need me to accompany you?"

Yang Ying smiled bitterly: "I've seen a lot of ways to torture people."

"You don't have to think about it to know that they will only let me enter the palace alone."

Xiao Yuxi raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

The next second, Ren Ruyi and Ning Yuanzhou suddenly disappeared.

Yang Ying was stunned for a moment.

She reached out her hand and tentatively touched the air in front of her.

Ren Ruyi held her hand: "What's wrong?"

But in Yang Ying's eyes, she couldn't see Ren Ruyi at all, she could only feel the warmth on the back of her hand.

Xiao Yuxi snapped her fingers again, and the figures of Ning Yuanzhou and Ren Ruyi appeared in front of Yang Ying again.

Yang Ying turned to look at Xiao Yuxi, with an expression of surprise and joy on her face: "Yuxi, what's going on?"

Xiao Yuxi replied: "It's a blinding method."

After her explanation, Ren Ruyi and Ning Yuanzhou also learned about this method.

There was a smile in Ning Yuanzhou's eyes: "With the second lady here, even if we fail to make peace, our subsequent actions will be much easier!"

Ren Ruyi stared at Xiao and Xi, calmly.

Others in the mission may not understand.

But she knows better than anyone else that Xiao Yuxi has an unknown origin and an uncertain whereabouts.

Who can say for sure what will happen next?

Just like what Yuan Lu once said, Xiao Yuxi and Ren Ruyi seem to be close, but Xiao Yuxi is always wary of Ren Ruyi.

In fact, for Ren Ruyi, is it not the case?

She did not deny that the two of them had been close friends for many years.

Xiao Yuxi seemed to know everything, but she couldn't see clearly the path Xiao Yuxi was going to take.

Nothing is permanent.

If such a person becomes an opponent, it doesn't matter whether she can win.

Shan said that he would really kill Xiao Yuxi.

Ren Ruyi asked in her mind, can she do it herself?

She couldn't answer.

This question may never have an answer.

In the inner courtyard, Yang Ying finally rejected Xiao Yuxi's kindness.

"I've learned a lot along the way," she said.

"Sister Ruyi taught me that the only person I can always trust is myself."

"Yu Xi also said that I don't need to learn from others and just be myself."

"Brother Yuanzhou promised that everyone will live and die with me, and that's enough!"

"I am King Dawuli. When faced with danger, I must have the courage to face it alone."

"I don't want to hide behind you anymore. Tonight is our first confrontation with Anguo, and it is also my first step."

At this moment, Master Du was ready.

Several other people from Liu Daotang also rushed over with a group of guards.

Yang Ying flicked her long sleeves with both hands and leaned slightly towards the crowd.

She bowed her hands in a salute and said sincerely: "Thank you for accompanying me all the way. I will keep your instructions in mind and you will definitely live up to your trust!"

Mr. Du looked happy and burst into tears.
