Chapter 1873 King Xirong wants to discuss cooperation
This matter involves two countries, and the conspiracy is unimaginable. They have no idea what the former queen wants to do, nor do they know what kind of deal she has with the Western Rong Kingdom.
Under the current circumstances, further investigation would be disadvantageous to them.
The atmosphere became tense and Chen Changli remained silent. Then, a light bulb went off in his head and he suddenly realized that Amir was going to Cali Town with everyone else.
But suddenly I had to leave midway...
"Shufang, I suspect Amir's doing." Chen Changli told Wan Shufang his guess, and Wan Shufang also thought of Amir's unknown whereabouts.
She frowned and supported her brows with her hands: "Only Harijula can do this. We have to go to Xirong Country to take a look."
"it is good."
Chen Changli stood up and went to find paper and pen, preparing to write a letter to Harijula who was in Kali Town. After he finished writing the letter, he asked someone to deliver it to Harijula, then said goodbye to Lin Zhen and went to Xirong Kingdom with Wan Shufang.
But just after the two of them left Xingyun Town and had not gone far, they were ambushed in the suburbs. Looking at the group of masked men in black in front of them, Chen Changli subconsciously protected Wan Shufang behind him.
Those people stood in front but did not take action. They only issued warnings when two people came forward.
"Don't move, otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."
They seemed to know that Chen Changli was a martial arts expert and were a little afraid of him. Chen Changli and Wan Shufang looked at each other and nodded slightly. Then he took Wan Shufang's hand and rushed into the group of people in black.
There were too many people on the other side, and after a few rounds, Chen Changli seemed to be overwhelmed.
The man in black seemed to notice this and immediately roared: "Kill them! Don't let them go to Xirong!"
A group of people rushed forward desperately and the fighting continued. Seeing that Chen Changli was exhausted and could not hold on any longer, Wan Shufang thought quickly and without caring too much, she dragged Chen Changli into the space.
The two people disappeared on the spot, and the men in black looked at each other in confusion.
"Where are the people? Why did they suddenly disappear?"
"Look for him. We must dig three feet into the ground to find him."
"We must not let them leave alive."
In the space, Wan Shufang could see everything that happened outside. Seeing that those people wanted to stop them from going to Xirong, her eyes darkened: "It seems that there is indeed something wrong with Xirong, and we have attracted people's attention."
"If you want to go in peace, you may have to change your attire."
The two people stayed in the space until the group left, then they showed up. In order to hide from others, Wan Shufang took Chen Changli to change their clothes.
There were some bumps along the way, but we finally arrived at the Western Rong Kingdom safely.
As soon as she entered Xirong, Wan Shufang felt her eyes brightened. She had never been to Xirong before, and only knew a little about it from Amir's words. Amir said that Xirong was poor.
But the scene in front of me is quite different. The streets are bustling with people coming and going, and the cries of small vendors fill my ears.
All kinds of goods for sale come into view, colorful and overwhelming. The palace not far away is magnificent and golden, revealing prosperity everywhere.
"This is different from what Amir said. There is not a single true word she says." Wan Shufang couldn't help but complain. Her brows were furrowed, but she soon relaxed and walked on the street.
Chen Changli also accompanied her with a smile on his face. The two of them were so engrossed in the shopping that they didn't notice at all that they were being watched as soon as they entered the city.
Walking all the way to the inn, Wan Shufang had a fashionable hairpin on her head, with the crabapple flowers on it vividly painted. She asked Chen Changli with a smile: "I am so old, and I still buy something so fancy. I will be laughed at."
"It looks very nice. No one will laugh at you." Chen Changli replied with a smile. He even reached out to tidy up her hair, paid the waiter, and went back to his room to rest.
The two had just checked into the inn, and less than half an hour had passed when someone knocked on the door. Chen Changli looked at the door warily and asked loudly, "What's the matter?"
"Hey, two gentlemen, a distinguished person is looking for you." The waiter's voice sounded. Chen Changli got up to open the door, and saw several people dressed as guards standing at the door.
He blocked Wan Shufang behind him and said with a serious look: "Who are you? Do you have something to do with us?"
"The King of Xirong invites you two to follow us to the palace."
The guard spoke in a cold tone with an air of superiority. Seeing that they were people from the Xirong Palace, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang looked at each other and did not resist. They followed them obediently to the Xirong Palace.
Arriving at the palace, Chen Changli looked at the man in the first seat with no expression on his face. The King of Xirong also looked at them, looking them up and down, as if he could not imagine that this was the great contributor to Dayong.
Feeling his probing gaze, Chen Changli protected Wan Shufang behind him, blocking the sight of the King of Xirong, and asked directly: "Chen Changli of Dayong, may I ask the King of Xirong, what is the purpose of bringing us to the palace of Xirong?"
Chen Changli's tone was not pleasant, and even a little harsh, which made the King of Xirong very embarrassed. He dodged for a moment, and it took him a long time to regain his thoughts. He coughed lightly and said, "Master Chen, you are too polite. I just invited you to be my guests."
"You two have come to my Xirong territory. As the king here, I should entertain you..."
The King of Xirong tried hard to think of words, but got stuck. This made Chen Changli very uncomfortable. Not wanting to play along with him, Chen Changli interrupted the King of Xirong directly: "King of Xirong, there is no need to be like this. Just say what you want to say. We are all smart people. It is not appropriate to beat around the bush."
After hearing this, the King of Xirong was slightly stunned, and a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes. No wonder he was a meritorious official of Dayong. He was indeed brave and resourceful, and was not afraid of danger.
Since Chen Changli had said so, there was no need for him to be hypocritical anymore.
"In that case, I won't beat around the bush with you. I heard that Dayong has many talented people and abundant resources. I also want to cooperate with Dayong so that we can each get what we need. You are Dayong's heroes, so I will talk to you about this matter."
When they heard that the King of Xirong wanted to cooperate, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang were stunned. Unable to tell whether what he said was true or false, they did not answer for a while.
The hall was silent for a long time. Wan Shufang suddenly walked out from behind Chen Changli, raised her lips and smiled softly, "Let's not talk about cooperation first. King Xirong, this time we come to Xirong, we want to meet someone, Amir."
"Amir, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why don't we talk first..." King Xirong wanted to change the subject, but Wan Shufang didn't give him a chance at all. She blocked his way before he could finish speaking.
"Let's meet Amir and then talk about other things."
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn. King Xirong looked at Chen Changli and Wan Shufang. Both of them looked serious and cautious, and neither of them seemed to be joking. Seeing that he couldn't stop them, he could only compromise.
"Since the two insist, I am willing to satisfy you. Someone, go and call Amir over."
