Half a month later, Jiulong Mansion finally arrived at their destination.
The mighty motorcade slowly drove into the capital of the barbarian kingdom. The barbarians in the city watched the wind and gathered on the road leading to the palace.
This situation is exactly the same as when Yuanlin's envoy team entered Xuandu.
Many people from the barbarian country were excitedly looking at this mighty motorcade, and even those who knew the inside story were chatting with their companions, and their words were quite proud.
There were also many people who looked at the flag belonging to the Daxuan Dynasty in front of the cavalry with unkind expressions.
Most of these people were barbarian veterans who had been on the battlefield.
Or maybe they were barbarian soldiers on active duty.
They looked at the elite Dragon Guards who were following closely behind the cavalry, and clenched their fists slightly.
The barbarian people on both sides looked at the cavalry with curiosity.
"I heard that the person coming this time is from the Jiulong Mansion of the Great Xuan Dynasty, and that the Great Khan personally sent Master Taigong to invite him back."
"Isn't it possible? Why would the Great Khan invite a few people from the Central Plains to come to our barbarian country?"
"I heard that they are here to help the Great Khan investigate the cause of the mysterious deaths of the two princes." An insider whispered.
When the people nearby heard this, their expressions changed.
The two princes died mysteriously, which was not a secret in the barbarian country.
But it has been the most sensitive topic in the Barbarian Kingdom in recent months.
Since it involves the heirs of Wang Khan and his beloved concubines in the harem, even the high-ranking officials in the country dare not discuss the matter in private for fear of getting into trouble.
Domestic people are even talking about the change of color.
Therefore, when they heard this sentence, the barbarian people nearby looked at the person who spoke as if they were looking at monsters.
And the man seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly covered his mouth and left.
The cavalry marched down the street toward the palace.
Halfway through the journey, several barbarian carriages suddenly appeared in front of them. Each one was extremely gorgeously decorated. It was obvious at a glance that the people in the carriages were either rich or noble.
The team from Jiulong Mansion slowly stopped.
The queue of horse-drawn carriages in front also came to an abrupt end.
A shadow of a person walked out of one of the carriages, quickly came to the front of the Jiulongfu horse team, and saluted with clasped fists.
"I am coming to the Imperial Palace of the Man Kingdom to welcome the envoys of the Daxuan Dynasty."
Hearing this, Chen Yutian slowly walked out of the carriage, dressed in white and looking stunning.
Not far away, in a carriage, a pretty girl wearing a barbarian court dress was sitting. When she saw this scene, there was a flash of brilliance in her beautiful eyes.
"Your Majesty, you're welcome."
Chen Yutian clasped his fists slightly at Yuan Lin.
Yuan Lin smiled and said, "That's right. Mr. Chen has traveled thousands of miles to come to our country to help us. As hosts, we should do this. Otherwise, wouldn't it be disrespectful?"
Chen Yutian nodded slightly.
"Then I wonder if the Khan of your country would like to receive us?"
"The Great Khan is currently waiting to be received in the palace, but..."
When Yuan Lin said this, he paused slightly.
Chen Yutian's eyes flashed slightly.
"But except for the Great Khan, all the important civil and military officials of the barbarian kingdom are present in the palace. Many of them are hostile to you Central Plains people. You must be extremely careful."
Yuan Lin paused and said again.
Chen Yutian nodded.
"Thank you, Taigong, for reminding me. I will pay attention to it later."
"In that case, without further ado, I will take you to meet the Great Khan."
After saying that, Yuan Lin turned around and returned to his carriage, then ordered the driver to turn around and go straight to the palace.
Chen Yutian also returned to the carriage, but just as he was about to enter the carriage, his expression suddenly changed, and his eyes turned to look at the carriage convoy in front of the barbarian country.
Just when he met Yuan Lin, he felt a gaze falling on him from beginning to end.
As if he was very interested in himself.
Then, he saw a girl.
That gaze came from exactly the direction where she was.
Chen Yutian frowned slightly and secretly took note of the girl's face.
He was certain that he definitely did not know this girl.
He shook his head slightly, withdrew his gaze, and inadvertently looked up. With just one glance, his body was shaken!
"This, this is..."
I saw a silvery-white... bug at the edge of the carriage curtain.
This bug is only the size of a fingernail, and its body is silvery white.
Of course, it is not appropriate to say that it is silver, because there are two circles of golden lines on its abdomen.
In addition, it has two pairs of almost transparent wings.
It was attached to the carriage, very inconspicuous, and seemed to be insulated from spiritual detection. No matter how Chen Yutian used his spiritual sense to sense it, he could not sense its existence.
"What is this thing?"
Chen Yutian squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then took it off the carriage.
Although he didn't know what the insect did, he didn't dare to take it lightly. He could only put it away first and find someone to identify it later.
After returning to the carriage, he immediately ordered everyone to follow the horse team that the barbarians came to greet.
In a short time, they had arrived at the palace of the Barbarian King.
After Jieli Khan's approval, Chen Yutian, Gongsun, Ling Miaoyin, Xuan Xi, Xue Tianhan, and Tang Fengling came to the main hall together.
"The Lord of Jiulong Mansion, Chen Yutian, has met His Majesty the Khan on my behalf."
Chen Yutian saluted Jieli with his hands clasped in fists.
Jie Li waved his hand slightly.
"Your Majesty, please rise. Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work coming from afar." Jie Li said calmly.
Chen Yutian smiled and said: "His Majesty Khan is serious. I wonder if His Majesty Khan can tell us the ins and outs of the matter in detail, so that we can launch an investigation as soon as possible."
Jie Li smiled and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to be anxious. The king has already set up a welcoming banquet in the harem to welcome you all. Let's go to the banquet first. After the banquet is over, how about we talk about business?"
Chen Yutian could naturally tell that Jie Li didn't want to talk about that matter in front of the ministers, so he had no choice but to nod.
"That's fine."
After that, everyone headed to the harem together.
On the way, Chen Yutian handed over the insects found in the carriage to Gongsun.
"This is..." The insect in Gongsun's hand raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Found it on the carriage." Chen Yutian said truthfully.
Gongsun nodded slightly, he already understood what Chen Yutian wanted him to do.
"I understand. I will give you an answer after the banquet."
Chen Yutian nodded slightly, and then followed everyone to the harem for the banquet.
…
…
Harem, the palace of the nine princesses.
Lang Yue sat quietly in the room, holding a pen and paper and writing something.
Suddenly, the door opened, and an old man dressed as a chamberlain walked in with another chamberlain uniform.
When Lang Yue saw this, she immediately stood up.
"Your Highness, you are finally back." As soon as the old chamberlain entered the door, he burst into tears and knelt down quickly.
Lang Yue helped her up and said, "No need to be polite. Is my mother-in-law okay?"
"Everything is going well for the empress, but the cold palace is lonely and lonely, which makes her suffer." The old chamberlain said.
Lang Yue said: "I want to go into the cold palace to see her."
The old chamberlain's expression changed when he heard this and asked: "Your Highness, do you really mean what you said?"
Lang Yue nodded heavily, "Seriously."
The old chamberlain immediately smiled and picked up the chamberlain uniform he had brought.
"The empress has long known that the princess will make such a request, and she has already told the old slave to prepare it. Please also ask the princess to put on these clothes and follow the old slave to the cold palace."
"Okay." Lang Yue nodded, then changed her clothes, carried a plate of fruit, and followed the old waiter out.
The journey was uneventful. When they arrived at the door of the cold palace, Lang Yue lowered her head slightly and allowed the old chamberlain to lead her into the palace.
But as he approached the palace gate, he was stopped by the guard guarding the gate.
"Hey, Mr. Wu, this little chamberlain is..."
The old chamberlain said: "Oh... this is the chamberlain who is responsible for delivering food to the empress. Don't you recognize me, Commander?"
The guard guarding the palace gate looked at the chamberlain disguised as Lang Yue from head to toe, shook his head and said: "Of course I know the chamberlain who brings food to the empress, but it doesn't seem to be this person."
The old chamberlain said: "Oh, there has been a change of people today. The previous chamberlain was assigned to do other things, and this one is new."
The guard commander nodded and said: "Oh, it turns out he is new here, no wonder I don't recognize him."
The old chamberlain smiled and said, "Commander, look..."
The guard waved his hand and said: "Okay, go in... Remember to send him out personally later."
The old chamberlain smiled and said, "I know this."
After that, he walked into the cold palace with Lang Yue pretending to be a chamberlain.
And the moment they disappeared at the entrance of the palace, the eyes of the guard commander with a smile on his face suddenly changed.
