The gorgeous young man frowned and scolded: "Impossible, with my uncle here, how can the mere Floating Tower Country be a rival!"
"My lord, your uncle... was captured by a young general from the other side."
"boom."
The gorgeous young man's eyes widened and his wine glass dropped to the ground in shock.
…………
The next day, in the East Gate City Mansion.
Yi Xifeng was walking around in the hall wearing his war robe, occasionally passing by a few bottles of wine. The guards beside him were setting up a banquet, and they turned a blind eye to the fair young man's behavior.
This banquet was held as a celebration feast and also to welcome the return of the king of the Pagoda Kingdom.
There is no doubt that Yi Xifeng is the main contributor to this war. The fact that he single-handedly captured the enemy's Hero Realm cannot be compared to others.
At this time, the guard chief with the Chinese character face changed his makeup, twirled his Buddhist beads and quietly came over, and said through the message:
"My lord, do you really not want to avoid this? If His Majesty the King comes back, your identity will not be preserved."
Yi Xifeng nodded, but he was not too worried. With his current level of strength, if he wanted to run away, a mere floating tower country would not be able to stop him, not to mention that he was kind to the floating tower country.
The King of the Floating Tower Kingdom has some conscience and will not embarrass himself.
Then he changed the topic and sent a message to the chief guard: "How are the interrogations of those people in the cell going?"
"Sir, I have interrogated the crazy boy who was captured and called the 'Commander of the Army' and found out that he is the heir of a duke in Endless Wilderness. Apart from the identities of a few informants in the city, I don't know anything else. Sir, please rest assured, then
Several spies have been arrested, and adults can question them at any time.
The guy in silver armor that your Excellency caught is this boy's uncle, but he is still in a coma and we don't know when he will wake up."
Yi Xifeng thought to himself: "It seems that I will have to be gentler in the future."
…………
"Welcome your Majesty to return!"
All the soldiers opened the door to greet the road. On both sides of the station, after the honor guard passed by, a luxurious carriage wrapped in gold, decorated with blue jewels and green emeralds passed by slowly. The onlookers were solemn and solemn, bowing and twisting their prayer beads without knowing what they were saying.
What are you talking about?
Yi Xifeng stood aside with the generals. He had already learned from the guard chief that the King of the Floating Tower Kingdom was a powerful warrior in the Hero Realm, so he did not force his soul to spy on his appearance.
Firstly, he is a guest after all, so doing this is against etiquette; secondly, he already has many enemies, so he can't afford to provoke another one.
After the carriage entered Dongcheng Mansion, the onlookers slowly dispersed, twisting their Buddhist beads in their hands.
Yi Xifeng was a little moved when he saw this. The people of the Futa Kingdom seemed to have great respect for the Futa King. Yesterday, the city was attacked by endless barbarians. These people did not show much panic, unlike the people of Loulan City.
Just abandon the city and flee.
After entering the lobby...
"female?"
Yi Xifeng was very surprised. Sitting in the high hall was a dignified middle-aged woman, about fifty years old. Beside her, there was a younger girl, about twenty years old.
Look.
The two look somewhat similar, so one can guess that they are mother and daughter.
The middle-aged woman wears a golden robe, covering her figure. Although she is a girl, she moves powerfully. Her royal temperament is even stronger than that of some male emperors, and there is no trace of feminine charm.
The young girl is wearing a corset red gauze dress, with an unsheathed long sword hanging from her waist. She has a pretty face, a very tall figure, only three or four inches shorter than Yi Xifeng, and her behavior is just like that of her mother.
The man, just on her body, looks more like a heroine and less oppressive like an emperor.
After the middle-aged woman King nodded to his daughter, the young girl sat down on her right side. The seat on her left was naturally reserved for Yi Xifeng.
The middle-aged woman looked at Yi Xifeng, who was wearing a battle robe, and said:
"'Zhenbeitinghou', please take a seat quickly."
Yi Xifeng: “…………”
…………
The celebration banquet ended quickly. What surprised Yi Xifeng was that His Majesty the King did not expose him from the beginning to the end. Not only was he a little surprised, but so was the chief of guard beside him.
Sure enough, after the banquet dispersed, Yi Xifeng was stopped by the king.
"The Lord of Zhenbeiting will stay here for now. I have something to discuss with you about this battle. Please follow me into the palace to discuss it."
In the palace, in addition to Yi Xifeng and the king, there was also the king's daughter.
The middle-aged woman bowed to Yi Xifeng and said, "Thank you very much for saving my pagoda country from the fire and water."
The young woman behind him also saluted, which surprised Yi Xifeng. As the king of the Futa Kingdom, the person in front of him would actually salute an outsider like himself, which was a bit inconsistent with his "stereotype" of the king.
As the saying goes: when things go wrong, there must be a monster.
Yi Xifeng did not accept the courtesy, but asked: "Your Majesty, do you have anything to ask of me?"
"As expected, I can't hide it from Your Excellency. It's true that I do have something important to ask of you. Please sit down, Your Majesty, and watch some tea."
"yes."
Not long after, the young girl brought a red sandalwood teapot and made Yi Xifeng a cup.
Yi Xifeng looked at this young girl and felt a little confused. She was obviously a woman, so why did the king call her "Emperor's son"? Could it be that she was the next king?
"Your true identity should be Yi Xifeng of the Zhenwu Dao Hall."
Yi Xifeng nodded without denying it. Although he is not well-known now, as long as a careful person does a little research, he can find out his identity. Moreover, he is now a strong warrior in the realm of heroes, so he does not need to hide his identity.
.
When the king saw that the other party had admitted so openly, he stopped talking nonsense and said bluntly: "Our country of Futa is willing to transfer half a year's treasury tax revenue to you. I only ask that you can help our country of Futa survive this disaster."
Yi Xifeng picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He didn't know much about treasury taxation, so he asked: "Half-year treasury taxation? How much do you have in a year?"
"Six hundred thousand taels."
Yi Xifeng did some calculations and replied: "Six hundred thousand taels of silver is not too much."
"Six hundred thousand taels of gold."
"Pfft!!!" Yi Xifeng spit out a sip of tea: "Take... take the young man?"
The king of Futa Kingdom took a sip of tea and smiled without saying a word, while the "prince" standing beside him couldn't help but laugh.
"Six hundred thousand divided by two, that means I can get three hundred thousand taels of gold?" Yi Xifeng thought about this astronomical figure in his mind. Although he was not short of money now, could he buy such a large sum of money?
Less likely to break the magic crossbow.
After the shock, Yi Xifeng did not rush to make a decision, but fell into deep thought.
The King of the Floating Tower Kingdom is not in a hurry. Obviously, she is very confident in the request she made. ()
