Ling Weigongzhu accompanied her. Ling Wei had been the apple of the Liang's eye since she was young, so naturally, she had a bit of a pampered and proud personality. Even Liang Yu, the big brother, had to give in to her.
"Ling Wei, remember this trip to the Xiao Kingdom. You must not be too willful, and do as you please as you please." Liang Yu rode on his horse as he walked beside Ling Wei's sedan chair and reminded him.
Hearing the man talk about her, the girl opened the curtain of the sedan.
The girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old. She had a round oval face and sparkling eyes. She had a princess bun tied around her head and exuded a youthful and lively aura.
The woman's face was full of blame, "Big Brother, what are you talking about?
"You damned girl, I still don't know about you. You're usually spoiled by royal father and his mother, and you don't know your place. You're not like those in the Liang, where you need to restrain your temper, and don't be too willful in everything you do." Liang Yu looked helpless, and could only repeatedly warn his little sister.
"Also, don't forget the reason why royal father allowed you to follow me to Xiao Kingdom this time. It would be even better if you could find a person you like to marry. royal father has set his eyes on the crown prince of Xiao Kingdom. When you go this time, you must get closer to the crown prince. " Liang Yu instructed.
"Big brother, who I like is my own business, I don't want you and royal father to be too concerned with me. If I don't fancy the Xiao Kingdom Crown Prince, then it's useless for anyone to force me. " The young girl frowned and said unwillingly, "I have to choose my own prince consort."
"Good, good, good." Liang Yu answered, "royal father and elder brother did not force you to marry the crown prince. royal father only said that it would be good if you could take a fancy to the crown prince, and if you did not, no one would force you."
"That's more like it." The young girl's brows relaxed, "Right, Fourth Bro. Tell me about that His Majesty the Battle-King. "
"What is it? Curious about him? " Liang Yu glanced at his sister, and said: "The Battle King is a man who knows how to lead troops in war, and he has even done meritorious deeds for the Xiao Kingdom. Furthermore, the Battle King is extremely deep in love. It is said that since the death of Battle Princess, there has been no true wife, and there are no other women in his residence. "
Hearing that his own brother had such an evaluation of him, Ling Wei became even more curious about Xuanyuan Zhan. What a deep and emotional person he must be to have so many thoughts about his wangfei and yet have no other concubine.
"Alright, let's not ask anymore. It's getting late already. Brother, hurry up and hurry on your way." After saying that, the young girl put down the curtain of the sedan.
Liang Yu and his group continued to advance...
Today, the Liang's envoy had come, so since the Emperor has handed this matter to Xuanyuan Zhan, he cannot refuse.
Early in the morning, Xuanyuan Zhan rode his horse to the city gate to welcome them, bringing Lei Yushandian along with him.
From a distance, he could see that the envoys were almost at the city gate, so Xuanyuan Zhan dismounted from his horse. Seeing that there was someone welcoming them at the city gate, Liang Yu turned around and dismounted.
"The fourth prince of Liang has come from afar to welcome you." Xuanyuan Zhan greeted.
"Greetings, your Highness the fourth prince." Lei Yushandian bowed.
"No need to be so polite, get up." Liang Yu said, "This king has only just arrived in the Xiao Kingdom, and has already been personally welcomed by the His Majesty the Battle-King, there's nothing else that is inconsiderate about it."
The man who was talking to his elder brother had a handsome face, and the sunlight that shone on his body made him look especially handsome. His voice was very cold, but it was very pleasant to hear. The girl was stunned.
"The fourth prince came all the way here. He must be tired from all the traveling. Let this king take you guys to the relay station to rest for a while."
"Alright, His Majesty the Battle-King, please." Liang Yu said.
Hearing that they wanted to leave, the young lady slowly lowered the sedan chair's curtain.
After entering the city, a large group of people appeared, and it was quite eye-catching. Furthermore, when the envoys of the Liang came, the citizens were all curious and came to watch.
When he reached the inn, Xuanyuan Zhan saw the crown prince standing in front of the entrance from afar. Seeing that the Liang's ambassador had arrived, the Crown Prince walked over, "The Fourth Prince of Liang is here, so this Crown Prince should go and receive you." Seeing the Liang's ambassador, the Crown Prince walked over, "The Liang's Fourth Prince is here, so this Crown Prince should be coming.
Seeing that the crown prince was so respectful and courteous, Liang Yu had a much better impression of him, "Your Highness has come personally, I am already very happy, why would I mind?"
"This is?" The Crown Prince asked.
Oh, this is this king's sister, and she has never been abroad in the Liang since she was young. This, I heard that I was going to send an envoy to the Xiao Kingdom, so no matter what, I had to follow. I said that I wanted to see the world, and royal father had no choice but to agree.
"Oh, so it's the Liang's princess."
"Ling Wei greets Your Highness, His Majesty the Battle-King." Ling Wei bowed slightly.
"There is no need for your highness to be so courteous." The Crown Prince said. The group of people entered the Inn.
"The Fourth Prince and the princess should rest well. If you need anything, just tell them to go get it." The crown prince said, "I still have some matters to attend to in my residence, so I will take my leave first."
Hearing that the crown prince wanted to leave, Xuanyuan Zhan also took his leave, "Then this king will not disturb you any further. Fourth Prince has just arrived at Xiao Kingdom and naturally has a lot of areas to take care of.
"Your Highness, it's good to leave His Majesty the Battle-King, This King will not send you off." Liang Yu said.
"Is that the crown prince? I don't think he's much better at night. " Ling Wei could not help but compare the Crown Prince and the Battle King in his heart.
"Alright." Hearing her sister dare to be so audacious towards the Xiao Kingdom Crown Prince, she quickly said, "You must not say such words in the future, do not forget that we are in the Xiao Kingdom now."
In the crown prince's residence, Feng Jiaojiao was once again fanning the flames beside the crown prince's ears, "Your Highness, this time the Liang's ambassador has come, and His Majesty actually doesn't allow you to receive him. This is too biased."
The Crown Prince was not convinced that the emperor had sent Xuanyuan Zhan to receive the Xiao Kingdom's envoys in the first place, so he was naturally unhappy. After hearing what Feng Jiaojiao said, she became even more furious, "What, even you want to mock this prince?"
"Please forgive me, Crown Prince. How could this concubine have such intentions? This concubine has always been thinking for the sake of your highness." Seeing that the crown prince was about to get angry, Feng Jiaojiao hurriedly tried to curry favor with him. Your concubine only loves Your Highness and cannot let that Battle-King get away with it. "
Hearing Feng Jiaojiao's words, Xuanyuan Qingtian squinted, as if he had thought of something. He whispered, "You're right, we can't let that Xuanyuan Zhan guy get away with it too easily."
"Your Highness, what did you say?"
"It's nothing. You can go down first and get Xu Yu for me."
Seeing that the crown prince had allowed him to leave, Feng Jiaojiao did not dare to stay any longer, and got up to leave.
Xu Yu was the head of the guards in the crown prince's residence and had always been loyal to the crown prince.
"Your subordinate pays his respects to the crown prince."
"Oh, Xu Yu, I've always known that you were extremely loyal to me, and now I'm going to give you something." The crown prince looked to Xu Yu for an indication.
"The crown prince has given the order that this lowly general will not refuse at all." Xu Yu said.
"Alright." "Come here," the crown prince whispered into Xu Yu's ear.
"Yes, Xu Yu shall obey."
"Remember, don't kill them. It's enough to scare them."
"Yes." Xu Yu turned and left.
"The crown prince leaned back in his chair." Hmph, Xuanyuan Zhan dares to oppose this prince. I'll make things difficult for you. "
In the Inn, a voice called out, "There's an assassin." Liang Yu woke up from his stupor and stood up quickly. Although Ling Wei had been pampered since she was young, she still knew some martial arts. Fortunately, the person didn't want to hurt anyone and quickly retreated.
"Brother, what's going on? Why is there an assassin not long after we arrived in Xiao Kingdom?"
They have just arrived in Xiao Kingdom, so why would anyone want to hurt us? Seems like the Xiao Kingdom isn't as peaceful as we thought it would be.
"Alright, I see that they don't have any intention of harming us, so stop chasing them." Liang Yu said, "Let this matter rest."
After resting for a few days, the Fourth Prince of Liang and her men went to meet the Emperor of Xiao Country.
"Liang Liang Yu, Ling Wei greets your Majesty."
"Prince, princess, please get up." Xuanyuan Mo said, "We are very happy that the prince has travelled here from afar to discuss the business between the two nations. This matter is already handed over to the Battle King. We hope that you and I can remain friendly. "
"Of course, royal father also hopes that we can always get along well, just like a nation of brothers."
"Alright, alright, alright, haha." Xuanyuan Mo seemed to be very happy.
"The Crown Prince saw it and took this opportunity to step forward." royal father, this son heard that Inn encountered an assassin last night. "
"Oh. "There's actually such a thing." Xuanyuan Mo said.
"Yes, royal father." Xuanyuan Qingtian glanced at the Battle-King and said, "The fact that Liang is here to discuss Liang's business is a huge matter between the two nations in the first place. But, the envoy only just arrived and he already came out as an assassin. This was clearly due to Third Brother's improper protection. "
"Is that so? Battle King. " When Xuanyuan Mo heard about this, he was extremely unhappy in his heart, but he also heard that Xuanyuan Zhan did not properly protect this matter, so he asked him, "We told you to properly receive the Liang's envoys, so we want you to properly protect the Liang's princes and princesses. How could you be so careless, and actually let Inn become an assassin? "
"Hmph, if it wasn't for the fact that the Crown Prince told me this, would you have been hiding this from me all along?" The Emperor coldly snorted.
"This son doesn't dare." Xuanyuan Zhan was clear that this was not a simple matter, it was definitely something that the crown prince was up to, but he could do nothing about it since he was in the imperial court, and could only tolerate it.
"I want to investigate this matter thoroughly and find out who was the one who tried to assassinate the Liang's envoy. I hope that royal father can make it clear. " Xuanyuan Zhan said, he secretly glanced at the crown prince, and the crown prince saw it too.
"Your majesty." Ling Weigongzhu opened her mouth and said, "That thief did not intend to hurt us, and no one among us was injured. Maybe the thief just wanted to steal something and was discovered. Your Majesty, you should stop blaming His Majesty the Battle-King. "
"Since Ling Weigongzhu has already pleaded for mercy on your behalf, we will not pursue this matter any further. However, you must investigate the matter regarding the assassin properly for us." Since Ling Weigongzhu had spoken up for him, Xuanyuan Mo, as the monarch of a nation, naturally could not say anything more.
"I shall obey."
