Congratulations on opening the coffin

Chapter 493
Shen Ruo was also a little helpless, so he could only change the subject: "You should, let's talk about business."

This talk lasted for two hours.

It was completely dark, during which time the proprietress used the excuse of sending candles to investigate the situation, and her keen eyes like a wolf guard swept over Yingjia, and at the end, she left a sentence: "Work hard, don't let the distinguished guests down! .”

However, after being reminded by the proprietress, Shen Ruo also realized that it was really not appropriate to stay like this, so she explained that she would come back tomorrow, so that everyone should digest what she said just now.

Should the family still want to keep Shen Ruo, the proprietress kicked the door open step by step: "Okay, you are not ashamed, the girls say they are leaving, and you still want to keep him for the rest of your life." What? Sure enough, you see that I am getting older and my beauty is old, so I have two hearts, right?"

Ying's dark face was flushed and flushed: "What are you messing around with? Isn't it all for business?"

"Who knows if you are really for business or have other intentions? Don't think I don't know. The Widow Li on the next street has come to repair the knife seven or eight times. Did she chop the pig or chop the firewood with the knife? , the knife can be broken seven times a month, but it's not that you are shameless and hook up with other pretty widows?"

"She, she, her knife is broken, come to me to fix it, what does it matter to me? You can't throw people out, can you?"

"It's said that flies don't bite seamless eggs. If you hadn't given her the illusion of an opportunity to take advantage of, how could she be shameless and come to seduce a married man? You must be wrong!"

Shen Ruo, who was tidying up the blueprints, heard this Mrs. Ying's nonsense, almost coughed out of choking, and sneaked out of the room for fear of getting burned.

Unexpectedly, Lin'er was sitting on the threshold beside him, and when he heard the sound, he turned his head and looked over: "Mother, are you done?"

Shen Ruo put the drawing into his sleeve, a little surprised: "Didn't I ask the proprietress to tell you for me, I have to be busy for a while, so I want you to go back first?"

Lin'er said gently and calmly: "It's getting dark, it's not safe for a girl to walk at night alone."

She couldn't help laughing: "My mother has a son as big as you, how can she be called a girl?"

Not continuing to argue about this topic, she walked over, took her son's hand, and said softly, "I kept you waiting, let's go back."

Afterwards, she spent a few more days going to Ying's iron shop to discuss matters, and Lin'er stayed with her all the time, which made Shen Ruo funny and helpless. Why did it feel like their mother and son's duties had changed?
It's just that these comfortable days didn't last long. A battle report came out, like a bomb, shaking the entire capital, and even the entire Xiao Kingdom.

Just three days ago, Emperor Xiao led the army, and the morale was greatly boosted. Not only did they defend the acropolis, they even took back the three cities that had been occupied by the Yelang Kingdom.

With all his strength, Emperor Xiao led his army to launch a counter-offensive war, and the Yelang Kingdom was even more defeated and entered the hinterland.

Just when the victory was in sight, Xiao Guo's [-] troops came to a place called Yinshan Stream in Yelang Kingdom.

The two armies are fighting, one hundred thousand against five thousand, it is a battle that must be won, but, I heard people say, that day the moon was dyed red, the ground was soaked with blood, the wind was howling, and the shadows were whirling, the five thousand soldiers of Yelang Kingdom were like As if possessed by ghosts and gods, with one enemy against a hundred, he became extremely cruel and violent, and actually slaughtered the [-] troops of the Xiao Kingdom, leaving no one behind.

However, Emperor Xiao, who was seriously injured, was captured alive by the Yelang Kingdom. Using this as a bargaining chip, he demanded that all Xiao Kingdoms surrender within ten days, and the gates of the whole country were opened wide to welcome the Yelang Kingdom into the main capital.

Otherwise, the Yelang Kingdom will continue to lead the army to attack, and every time they capture a city, they will slaughter all the people in the city. Even if they open the city and surrender at that time, it will be too late.

For a time, the city was full of wind and rain, and people were panic-stricken. The surrender faction and the non-surrender faction were even more arguing, and the government and the opposition were in a mess like ants on a hot pot. They couldn't make up their minds at all. The two most powerful talkers in the palace also passed out on the spot after hearing the news, and have not woken up till now.

"Could it be that God is going to destroy my country of Xiao?"

This idea came to mind of countless people of the Xiao Kingdom, and despair and sorrow began to spread.

At this moment, a carriage sped past the streets of the capital, and finally stopped in front of a mansion. The words "Jingwang Mansion" were engraved on the magnificent plaque.

Before the coachman put the stool away, the people in the car eagerly lifted their skirts, jumped out of the car, rushed to the door, and knocked on the door.

After knocking twice, the door opened, and Hongyu smiled gently: "Miss just guessed that you will come, the sixth princess, and asked the servants to come and wait, and sure enough, you have come."

"Where's Shen Ruo?" The sixth princess held up her skirt, not even caring about her usual elegant and noble image, and rushed into the mansion.

"It's in the main courtyard."

As soon as she arrived at the yard, there was a gust of wind. The wind was so weird that it came from the house. The sixth princess was startled and hurried into the house.

"What are you doing?"

Before she could see clearly, she wanted to move forward, but she was pulled back, and a calm voice came: "Don't go, there is an enchantment in front, you will cause chaos in the formation."

Only then did the sixth princess regain her composure and found that a huge formation was drawn inside the room, the scarlet color was strange, and there were three people sitting in the middle of the formation, one of them was actually the emperor's brother, and the other was also the emperor's brother...

The sixth princess rubbed her eyes, and then took a closer look, and found that the second brother of the emperor seemed to be younger and shorter.

What exactly is going on?

Just before she was about to be crushed by everything in front of her eyes, Shen Ruo finally kindly explained for her: "We are performing the soul-moving technique, and the woman wrapped in black gauze is the high priest of the Loulan Kingdom. Transfer the emperor's soul into the clone."

"Clone? You mean the younger version of the emperor?"

Shen Ruo nodded: "It's running out of time, so we can only take it out in advance. Based on the age of the bones, the replica should have arrived."

"Wow, Brother Huang, he's even younger than me. It feels so novel."

The sixth princess temporarily forgot the bloody storm outside, and couldn't help but hold her breath, staring at the situation inside the formation.

Minutes and seconds passed, and the sixth princess changed from excitement to doubt, and finally to boredom: "Does this soul-moving technique take so long?"

According to experience, it should be right soon.

Shen Ruo pursed her lower lip, feeling a little irritable.

Rumble!
A thunderbolt sounded from the blue sky, and everyone in the house was startled. The clouds began to gather outside, and the whole sky became dark. The wind was strong, the branches swayed, and even the tiles on the eaves were blown away and fell on the ground. The ground crackled, as if God was warning them that what they were doing was against heaven.

It's just that even if you go against the sky, what's the point?
puff--

The high priest suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and passed out straight away. Everyone was startled and rushed to check.

At this moment, a familiar warm voice came: "A Ruo."
