This time Yang Rui rushed back even harder than the last time. Firstly, he felt more anxious than when he went there. Secondly, he was more prepared this time. Not only did his riding skills improve a lot when riding on the horse, but also the five elements of water method eliminated the pain.
Once you get rid of your own fatigue, you can almost travel day and night.
Even after using the wind method in the Five Elements Wood attribute, Yang Rui was light and steady on the horse, and could sleep while riding. The knights who were walking with him had mixed feelings, and felt that a lot of common sense could not be applied to his highness.
.
I have never seen someone who can ride a long distance with such ease.
For ten days, I barely had any rest. I changed horses as soon as I arrived at the inn, and rode two people together. Finally, I made it back to Langyuan City in the shortest time. It wasn’t Yang Rui who couldn’t bear it all the way, but those who could not bear it.
Guards, although they can endure a long ride, they can't sleep while riding like Yang Rui did. They are so tired that their eyeballs are all bloodshot, and their faces are pale from exhaustion except for the sallow color from the dust all the way.
He rushed in such a hurry because Yang Rui was frightened by his father. After some analysis, Yang Rui saw that Nanyuan Kingdom was on a single-plank bridge with abyss on both sides. If he was not careful, he would be doomed.
situation. And according to his father, the only solution to the problem lies with his teacher Zhang Yan.
The matter was urgent, so Yang Rui didn't dare to delay.
Wang Lanping at home was surprised to see the tired Yang Rui, because Zhang Yan had told her before that Yang Rui might stay in the imperial city for a while longer, and it would take at least more than a month before he came back.
"Ouch! This little face is dirty. Go and wash it quickly. I'll have someone boil some hot water for you."
Wang Lanping knew that Yang Rui was a prince, but the old lady was now used to this little baby, who was so fair and fair that she couldn't see any difference from the neighbor's baby on the street. And now taking care of her grandson Zhang Zhiyun made Wang Lanping pay attention to all the children in the twelfth grade.
Children under the age of 18 are particularly pleasing to the eye, and they are happy to see whoever is well-behaved.
"Old lady, I'll go take a shower later. Where is my teacher?"
"Hey, you kid, come back and find your teacher. Go out. You've been out for a few days with your little stones and little steamed buns. You must be repairing some mountain gate again, right? You, hurry up and take a shower. After washing me,
I’ll prepare delicious food for you, maybe your teachers and others will be back tomorrow and the day after tomorrow!”
Yang Rui's face was immediately filled with a helpless expression, and he could only be pulled by Wang Lanping to the water room to rinse.
However, Yang Rui's luck was pretty good. At noon the next day, his beloved teacher Zhang Yan actually flew back with Wang Nian and Liu Rui on the Skylark Shuttle.
"teacher!"
"Huh?! Xiaomu? Are you back so soon?"
"Teacher, I came back yesterday. I didn't get much rest along the way. I rushed back all night." As he said that, Yang Rui glanced at Zhang Yan with a guilty conscience, as if to confirm the expression on Zhang Yan's face.
expression.
Zhang Yan wanted to laugh in his heart. He had lived with the three children around him for so long, how could he not know that Yang Rui looked like he had something on his mind?
So Zhang Yan touched Yang Rui's head and asked, "Are you in such a hurry to come back because you have something urgent to do to find your teacher? Okay, let's go to the study."
He gave Wang Nian, who was showing off the construction progress of the mountain gate to Yang Rui, a slap on the back of his head, and told Liu Rui to go back and wash up and eat first without waiting for them. Then he led Yang Rui to the study.
What could happen to Yang Rui? The urgent matter that made him rush back from Yuanding Imperial City must have come from the Nanyuan Kingdom royal family.
However, looking at Yang Rui's anxious and uneasy look, Zhang Yan probably thought it was not a trivial matter. But recently, there has been a rare peace in Nanyuan.
Could it be the visit of the demon clan?
The Haoyue Demon Kingdom sent an envoy, and the three hundred demon soldiers and demon generals marched all the way. It was impossible to hide it. Even though Langyuan City is located in Beijiang County, many rumors about this were still heard.
When he arrived at the study, Yang Rui very attentively made a cup of hot tea for Zhang Yan, and then coquettishly handed over a copper bar that he had carried close to his chest.
"Teacher, this is a handwritten letter written by my father to you. My father also said that he couldn't leave because of the government affairs, otherwise he would have begged the teacher in person. So this time I asked the disciple to beg the teacher on my father's behalf, and he must help.
Nanyuan Kingdom!" Yang Rui said and actually knelt down. The baby was really frightened by his father.
Zhang Yan didn't pay attention to Yang Rui's behavior of kneeling on the ground. He didn't care if his disciple knelt down. What he cared about was the autographed letter from Emperor Yang Sheng in his hand. There were three or two lines of polite words in it.
What happened after that was completely beyond Zhang Yan's expectation. He didn't expect that the demon clan would actually propose this option to Nanyuan Kingdom. It was clear that "I don't want to fight either, and so do you, right? Then how about a compromise?"
?”
In addition, Yang Sheng did not hide his purpose in the letter at all. Because Yang Sheng knew that he could frighten his own son, but he certainly could not frighten Zhang Yan. Instead of being embarrassed by the price drop after being discovered, it would be better to do it from the beginning.
Be honest. After all, in Yang Sheng's view, the request he made was really not harmful to Zhang Yan at all. It was just a detour, and many things ended up involving Nanyuan Kingdom first.
For example, in the letter, Yang Sheng stated in detail that he hopes to use Zhang Yan's influence to build the Nanyuan Kingdom into a special country in the human race. Not only is there no spirit race raging here, but there is also the unique Bone Strengthening Pill in the Wild Sky Territory.
And that special bell that can deal with the Eldar.
The above-mentioned things have nothing to do with Nanyuan Kingdom. They are Zhang Yan's abilities. Although Zhang Yan has always had a good relationship with Nanyuan Kingdom, they are by no means equivalent. Yang Sheng knows this very well, so he hopes that Zhang Yan will strengthen his bones.
The pill and the ghost-catching bell circled around Nanyuan Kingdom's body and then dispersed. The result would not change anything for Zhang Yan, but it was completely different for Nanyuan Kingdom.
Once the bone-strengthening pill and the ghost-catching bell in Zhang Yan's hands are taken out of the hands of the Nanyuan Kingdom, regardless of whether the Nanyuan Kingdom has any room for control, the fact is that Zhang Yan has been given a substantial power.
Just like what Yang Sheng said in the letter, at that time Nanyuan Kingdom was a special country in the human world. Anyone who wanted these two things, the Bone Strengthening Pill and the Ghost-catching Bell, had to be quite friendly with Nanyuan Kingdom.
.Moreover, one of these two things is a pure consumable, and the other is a semi-consumable that needs to be brought back for Zhang Yan to empty before he can continue to use it. It is impossible to get rid of the kind of dependence.
"It's a good plan. From now on, it will be difficult for other countries to deliberately target Nanyuan Kingdom under such circumstances. They can only turn a blind eye to the matter between Nanyuan Kingdom and Haoyue Demon Kingdom.
But dealing with the demon clan is full of thorns inside and outside." Zhang Yan closed the copper bar in his hand, but he had no objection to helping the emperor.
Zhang Yan is just curious. What changes and disasters will the demon clan say within five years?
