Eternal Sword

Chapter 607: Old Friend Haitang (Part )
Chen Tang took out a human skin mask from his arms and asked Li Shuhu to put it on.

After all, he is still wanted everywhere. With this face, he might have to fight his way all the way from here to the Wusun Royal City. There is no need for that.

Chen Tang didn't care, no one here recognized him.

After helping Li Shuhu onto Hu Leibao's back, Chen Tang ran behind him.

With Hu Leibao's wide and long back, it is more than enough for two people to sit on it.

However, Chen Tang always felt something was weird, so he decided to give up.

With Hu Leibao's strength, it would be easy for him to get rid of him.

But Chen Tang had strong lungs, a long breath, and his body was well-trained. His meridians were open to the highest level, so the Qi and blood circulated throughout his body, making it even faster than an ordinary horse.

The two men and the horse did not rest much, and only took a short nap when they were tired.

After three days and four nights, they finally arrived at the Wusun royal city.

As usual, Hu Leibao was left outside the city, while Chen Tang and Li Shuhu entered the city.

Just as Li Shuhu said, the royal city was heavily guarded and the people from the Da Kunmi faction were being hunted down everywhere.

The whole royal city was in a state of panic, and every tree and grass looked like an enemy.

At the city gate, several guards caught Chen Tang and the other man and interrogated them for a long time.

In the end, they had to give them some silver before letting the two men enter the city.

Chen Tang and his companion found an inn in the royal city that could see the direction of the royal palace, and stayed there temporarily, preparing to find out some news first.

The two of them went to a window seat on the second floor and ordered a table of food and wine.

I had hardly eaten anything along the way and was already starving.

Li Shuhu ate big chunks of meat and drank big gulps of wine.

This meal may very well be the last one.

Chen Tang ate inattentively, looking at the passers-by from the window, and occasionally looking at the situation in the palace.

At this moment, Chen Tang's eyes moved and he saw a familiar figure in the crowd. He was stunned and a little bit unbelievable.

He stared at the man carefully for a long time, and when he was sure that it was him, a smile appeared on his face.

I watched this person enter a mansion not far away.

Chen Tang observed again and found that there were some people with strange expressions around the mansion. They would glance in the direction of the mansion from time to time, as if they were guarding the place secretly.

"The waiter."

Chen Tang grabbed the waiter who had just served the dishes, pointed in that direction, and asked, "Who lives in that mansion?"

The waiter said, "Over there, it's the envoys from the Kingdom of Qian."

"Oh?"

Chen Tang asked again: "What are you doing here?"

The waiter smiled and said, "What else can I do? It's nothing more than that. I just spend money to save face."

"Let our Wusun envoys go to the Qian Kingdom to pay tribute. In name, it is a homage and tribute, but in fact, just bring some small gifts and say some nice words, and you can get a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, cloth and silk in return."

Chen Tang raised his eyebrows.

After the waiter left, he called Li Shuhu and said, "Let's go see an old friend."
-
The residence of the embassy.

Hearing the noise outside, a beautiful woman in a white dress came out.

The woman was not very old, but she had her hair tied up in a bun. Her eyes were clear as water, but there was a hint of worry on her face. She asked in a low voice, "My husband, how are you?"

"got it."

The man who came in was about twenty years old, dressed in black, with an upright posture, sword-like eyebrows, and a whole body like a spear, full of heroic spirit.

After closing the door, the beautiful lady made a cup of tea for the man in black, and then said softly: "This matter is too dangerous. Although it is a foreign country, it is the palace after all."

The man in black said, "In the past two days, I have contacted several of Da Kunmi's former subordinates. They will make some noise in the city tonight and lure away some of the imperial guards."

"There are people in the palace to help us. I just got the map of the palace. We have to give it a try."

The beautiful lady still had a sad look on her face and said, "But this is going so smoothly. I'm worried that maybe..."

The beautiful woman hesitated to speak.

The man in black also fell silent. "It could indeed be a trap."

After a long while, the man in black said, "But even though I know it's a trap, I have to go. After all, Senior Feng's life and death are related to the lives of my brothers. I can't just remain indifferent."

"Ugh."

Lady Xiumei sighed and said, "Brother Qingmo is a royal family member after all, and can be considered as your majesty's uncle. Maybe after a while, your majesty will soften his heart and revoke his order."

"Humph!"

The man in black snorted coldly and said, "That brat is ruthless and merciless. In the past two years, have you ever seen him show any mercy? In the past two years, the whole country of Qian has been torn apart by him. Natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued, and there have been starving people everywhere and refugees everywhere. However, he is still living a life of luxury in the palace, reveling every night!"

"Sometimes, I really want to rush into the palace and shoot him to death!"

The beautiful lady's face changed slightly, and she said, "My husband, please tell me these things in private, and be careful when you say them outside."

The man in black knew that the other party was concerned about him, so his expression eased a little and he said, "Haitang, don't worry. Even if it's a trap and I'm caught, the Wusun Kingdom will still have to be cautious of me given my status. My life will not be in danger."

"Ah."

The beautiful lady nodded.

Just then, a guard came to the door to report.

"Master Ming, two people came to the door and asked to see you. One of them said he was an old friend of yours from Qian Country."

"Ok?"

The man in black frowned.

He doesn't have any old friends from Qian Kingdom in Wusun Kingdom.

The beautiful lady asked, "What is this person's name?"

"Reporting to Madam, this person said that he was also called that..."

The guard hesitated, stammered, and spoke vaguely.

"what is it call!"

The man in black scolded.

The guard said stiffly, "Call her Haitang."

"Snapped!"

Upon hearing this, the beautiful lady was furious, slammed the table and stood up, saying coldly: "Who is so bold as to make fun of my husband and me?"

The guard said quickly, "I was furious when I heard that and wanted to fight him, but he was very confident and said that Young Master Ming must recognize him and asked me to come in and report. I had no choice but to..."

"Husband, just stay here. I'll go meet him! If he dares to talk nonsense in front of me, I'll shoot a hole in his chest!"

The beautiful woman picked up a shiny silver spear by the wall and was about to rush outside.

In front of the man in black, she was as gentle as water.

But in front of outsiders, he has an extremely hot temper.

"and many more!"

The man in black seemed to have thought of something, so he stopped the beautiful woman and asked, "Is that person a man or a woman?"

"It's a man."

The guard replied, "He is about twenty years old, tall and handsome."

The man in black and his wife looked at each other and thought of someone at the same time.

"No way?"

Lady Xiumei hesitated and said, "I heard from Changsun He that he was captured by the Demon Lord. He is not dead yet and has come to the Wusun Kingdom?"

"Let him in!"

"I knew it, I knew it, my brother is very lucky!"

The man in black looked excited and rubbed his hands.

After he finished speaking, he quickly changed his words and said, “No, I’ll go pick him up!”

After saying that, the man in black grabbed the beautiful woman's wrist, pushed open the door, and ran out in a hurry.
