The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

After Master Huang had a relationship with Linglong, he said to her with a proud look on his face: "From now on, you don't have to be a servant anymore. You are my concubine." After saying that, he gently lifted Linglong's chin with his fingers.

When Linglong heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, her face was filled with ecstasy, and she asked excitedly, "Master, is it true?"

Young Master Huang waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Of course."

Linglong bit her lip, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes, and then she said: "Master, many servants bullied me in the past, and now I want to take revenge."

Young Master Huang leaned lazily on his chair and responded casually, "It's up to you, just don't make too much trouble."

Linglong was delighted to get Young Master Huang's consent, and she secretly vowed to teach those servants who had bullied her a lesson.

Her eyes flashed with determination and revenge, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she said: "Master, don't worry, I know my limits."

Master Huang narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Linglong with a half-smile, and said, "Well, don't cause any trouble for me."

Linglong nodded quickly and responded obediently: "Master, Linglong knows."

When she turned and left, her steps became much lighter.

Linglong returned to the servants' room and told them about her relationship with Young Master Huang.

The servants who had bullied her in the past were all surprised and jealous when they saw her smug look.

Linglong crossed her arms in front of her chest, glanced at everyone with a cold look, and said, "When you bullied me before, did you ever think that this day would come?"

One of the servants trembled and said, "Miss Linglong, we were wrong before. Please forgive us, sir."

Linglong sneered: "Spare you? You weren't so kind at the beginning!" As she said that, she ordered the servants around her to beat these people up severely.

Looking at their miserable looks as they begged for mercy, Linglong felt no sympathy at all and only felt extremely refreshed.

The beaten servant rolled on the ground in pain, wailing one after another.

Linglong watched all this with an expressionless face, the anger in her heart had not yet completely dissipated.

At this time, one of the most arrogant servants on weekdays struggled to get up and shouted at Linglong: "Don't be complacent for too long, the young master is just a temporary novelty, when he gets tired of you, you will be in trouble!"

Linglong walked forward, kicked him, and shouted angrily: "Even if that day comes, it's not your turn to make irresponsible remarks now!"

After dealing with these people, Linglong left with her head held high, leaving behind a group of servants groaning in pain.

Linglong returned to the room and sat in front of the dressing table, thinking about everything that had just happened. She felt a sense of pleasure after revenge, but also a hint of uneasiness.

She knew that her current status was entirely due to Young Master Huang's favor, but how long could this favor last? Thinking of this, her brows furrowed slightly.

And those servants who were the victims of her revenge were now gathered together, discussing how to bring down Linglong.

"We can't let her bully us like this. We have to find a way to make the young master hate her!" one of them said angrily.

"But the young master is doting on her now, what can we do?" Another person sighed helplessly.

Xi Yu was sitting upright in the tent that day, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.

At this time, a soldier came hurriedly to report: "General, the soldiers at the border crossing brought an urgent letter."

Upon hearing this, Xi Yu's eyes became stern and he said, "Present it."

An hour ago, the sun was blazing, scorching the earth. A tall, dark-skinned Parthian man, riding a brown horse, arrived at the border crossing of Youzhou at lightning speed.

He was wearing colorful and unique clothes, and had a unique scimitar on his waist.

As soon as he got off the horse, he could not wait to loudly request to see the Emperor of Han, his voice full of eagerness and anxiety.

Upon seeing this, the soldiers immediately held up their spears and stopped them tightly.

When the Parthian man saw this, he became more and more anxious, his eyes widened, and he shouted loudly: "This matter is extremely important and of great significance. I hope you can give us some convenience!" However, the soldiers still stuck to their duties and remained unmoved.

Seeing that his request for a meeting was hopeless, the Parthian citizen gritted his teeth, fell to his knees with a plop, and banged his forehead heavily on the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

He begged bitterly, "Please, this matter really cannot be delayed!"

The soldiers were in a dilemma when the conversation got to this point. They looked at each other and whispered to each other.

"What should we do? If it's really an urgent matter, we can't afford to delay it."

"But we can't just let him go easily. What if there's a trick?"

After a fierce ideological struggle, they finally decided to let the Parthian man write a letter to the prime minister to see what the prime minister meant.

That's how this letter came to be.

Xi Yu looked solemn as he carefully opened the letter, his eyes fixed on the letter paper eagerly and intently.

His fingers trembled slightly, as if this thin piece of letter paper was carrying a heavy burden.

As he read deeper, Xi Yu's face became more and more gloomy, his brows were tightly twisted into a knot, and a few wrinkles appeared faintly on his forehead.

His lips were tightly closed and his breathing became heavy.

This letter was actually sent by the King of Parthia.

The letter clearly stated: "The princess is missing. She may have come to the Central Plains."

The King of Parthia expressed his sincere intentions in the letter. He wrote with great expectation that he hoped the Central Plains could help find the princess. If the princess could be found, he would be very grateful. A portrait of the princess was also attached to the letter.

After Xi Yu finished reading the letter, a surge of nameless anger suddenly surged in his heart. His face turned livid, his eyes widened with anger, and he slammed the letter on the table fiercely, shouting, "What does this have to do with me? This is simply unreasonable!"

So he immediately ordered his soldiers to send a letter back, writing firmly: "The Han Kingdom cannot confirm where the Parthian princess has gone. Even if she went to the Central Plains, it has nothing to do with us!"

The soldier did not dare to delay for even a second and rode back at full speed, telling the soldiers at the border crossing exactly what Xi Yu had said.

The soldiers at the border crossing quickly informed the anxiously waiting people from Anxi, Shi Daming, of the news.

When Shi Daming heard this, his face flushed with anxiety, veins popped out on his forehead, and he paced back and forth, complaining in dissatisfaction: "Why is Zhongyuan so careless? What should I do? If something happens to the princess, how can I explain it to the king?"

When the soldiers heard Smith's complaints, they all looked dissatisfied.

One of the soldiers stepped forward and said angrily, "What do you mean? What does your own country's affairs have to do with us in the Central Plains? Why should we bother to help you?"

Another soldier echoed, "That's right, we have no obligation to mind your business!"

When Shi Daming heard the soldiers' angry shouts, he suddenly woke up and realized that he was now in the Central Plains. His impulsive words just now were too reckless and stupid.

He bent even lower, and begged for mercy with a sobbing voice: "My dear soldiers, I was foolish and blind, and I offended you. I beg you to have mercy and help me find the princess. Our king will reward you handsomely!"

However, the soldiers were not moved at all and felt extremely disgusted and disgusted by his words.

A soldier frowned, his eyes wide open, took a big step forward, raised his foot as if to kick Smith, and shouted impatiently: "Humph! Stop pretending here! Get out of here, we don't need your so-called gratitude!"

Seeing the soldiers were so determined, Shi Daming became more and more panicked. He fell to his knees with a plop, hugged a soldier's legs tightly with both hands, and begged bitterly: "Sir, please, I'm begging you, as long as you can find the princess, I'm willing to do anything."

The soldier shook his hand away in disgust and shouted angrily, "Don't touch me! If you keep pestering me like this, don't blame us for being rude!"

Other soldiers also gathered around and shouted in unison: "Go! Go! Don't get in the way here!"

Shi Daming sat on the ground in despair, his eyes dull, and he kept muttering to himself: "What should I do? What should I do..."

Xi Yu frowned and fell into deep thought.

The Kushan Empire kept appearing in his mind.

"What a shame this Parthian Empire is. It's causing me so much trouble." Xi Yu muttered to himself, feeling annoyed.

He stood up and paced back and forth in the room, trying to shake off the irritability.

Suddenly, a ray of sunlight came through the window and sprinkled on the ground, bright and warm.

Xi Yu's attention was attracted by the sunlight and his heart moved.

He decided to go out for a walk to relax in the beautiful sunshine.

Xiyu opened the door and walked on the street. The sun shone on his body, making him feel warm.

He took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air, and his mood gradually relaxed.

The streets were bustling with people coming and going. Xi Yu looked at these busy people and felt a lot of emotions in his heart.

He didn't know where his future would go, but at this moment, he just wanted to enjoy this moment of peace.

Xi Yu was walking leisurely on the street, the sun shining softly on him. Suddenly, a familiar figure came into view. Zhuge Liang was holding a feather fan, walking leisurely, his elegant temperament was eye-catching.

When Zhuge Liang saw Xiyu, he immediately saluted. Xiyu smiled slightly and offered his hand to support him, "No need to be polite. The sun is shining brightly today, why don't we go for a walk together?"

Zhuge Liang readily agreed.

The two walked side by side and came to the vicinity of the moat.

The river water sparkles and the breeze blows, bringing a hint of coolness.

Zhuge Liang gently waved his feather fan and slowly said, "I have heard about Liu Bei's affairs. I once guessed that he used a certain strategy, but I didn't expect it to harm himself. Now that I think about it, it's really a pity."

After hearing what Zhuge Liang said, Xi Yu showed a hint of displeasure on his face and frowned slightly.

"Hmph, this is all Liu Bei's own fault." Xi Yu's tone was a little angry, and he obviously didn't want to continue discussing this topic.

Zhuge Liang was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Xi Yu to have such a reaction.

But he suddenly understood Xi Yu's feelings.

Xi Yu glanced at Zhuge Liang and said nothing. He was still dissatisfied with Liu Bei's behavior, but he didn't want to argue with Zhuge Liang.

The two continued walking along the moat, and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a moment.

The sun was still shining brightly, but at this moment it seemed unable to dispel the haze in the two people's hearts.

Shi Daming looked into the distance and sighed helplessly.

He knew very well that the mission had not been completed successfully and he would most likely be insulted by the king when he returned, but things had come to this point and there was nothing he could do.

He jumped on the horse, shook the reins, and the horse galloped forward.

Along the way, Shi Daming was in a heavy mood, and scenes of possible reprimands kept appearing in his mind.

After a while, he passed by an inn.

At this time, he felt a little hungry and tired, so he stopped his horse and walked into the inn to ask for food.

Sitting at the table and looking at the food in front of him, Smith sighed again.

The worry in his heart hung over him like a dark cloud, making him lose his appetite.

He didn't know what fate awaited him, but for now he could only take one step at a time.

Business in the inn is indeed not very good today, and there are only a few customers.

The waiter was bored and when he saw Shi Daming with a sad face, he came over.

"Sir, you look unhappy. What happened?" the waiter asked curiously.

Shi Daming raised his eyes slightly and looked at the waiter, but did not answer immediately.

His mind was full of the difficulties he might face after returning home, so he had no time to chat.

But looking at the waiter's expectant eyes, I felt that it would be inappropriate not to respond.

"Oh, it's a long story. I had important things to do, but I failed to complete them. I'm afraid I'll be scolded when I go back." Shi Daming sighed softly, his tone full of helplessness.

The waiter nodded, not quite understanding, "This matter is indeed worrying, but don't worry too much, sir, maybe there will be a turnaround."

Shi Daming gave a bitter smile, thinking that it would not be such an easy turn of events.

But the waiter's words made him feel a little relieved.

After a while, Shi Daming was upset. Without waiting for the waiter to ask, he said, "I am an envoy from the Parthian Empire. I came here to look for the princess. But your prime minister not only refused to help me, but also told me to get out."

The more Shi Daming spoke, the angrier he became, and his face became increasingly gloomy.

The waiter listened quietly, and already understood what was going on.

But for some reason, he suddenly laughed.

Shi Daming was already angry, and when he saw the waiter laughing, he became even more furious. "Why are you laughing? Are you laughing at me?" Shi Daming asked with his eyes wide open.

The waiter waved his hands and explained: "Sir, please don't be angry. I have no intention of mocking you. I just think this matter is a little strange. Why didn't the Prime Minister help? Maybe there is some misunderstanding."

After hearing what the waiter said, Shi Daming calmed down a little, but the anger in his heart had not completely dissipated. "Misunderstanding? Humph, that soldier has a bad attitude and didn't give me any chance at all." Shi Daming said angrily.

The waiter looked at Shi Daming who was still angry, and continued calmly: "Sir, please don't be angry. Think about it, now in the entire Central Plains, although Youzhou and several other states have a transit system, most of the Central Plains can still be entered and exited freely. What does it matter if the prime minister doesn't help? You can look for the princess somewhere else, maybe you will get unexpected gains. If you really can't find her, it's not too late to go back."

As Shi Daming listened to the waiter's words, his anger gradually subsided.

He pondered the waiter's words carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more it seemed to make sense.

Yes, if the prime minister doesn’t help, I can’t just give up like that. There are still many places to look for the princess.

Shi Daming's expression eased a lot. He looked at the waiter with gratitude in his eyes.

"You're right, thank you for your reminder." Smith thanked sincerely.

Afterwards, Smith decided to write a letter to the king, explaining the situation here, and then continue to look for the princess in the Central Plains.

He found paper and pen, sat at the table, and wrote down every word carefully.

In the letter, he reported his experiences and plans in detail, hoping that the king would understand and support him.

After writing the letter, Shi Daming carefully put it away and hope was rekindled in his heart.

He believed that as long as he didn't give up, he would be able to find the princess and complete his mission.

When the waiter heard Smith's praise, a joyful smile appeared on his face.

He felt proud that he could help this foreign envoy and his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

On the other side, Xiyu and Zhuge Liang felt hungry after walking near the moat for a long time.

They looked around and saw an inn not far away, so they went there together.

When we walked into the inn, it was very lively.

Xi Yu and Zhuge Liang found a quiet corner to sit down and called the waiter to come over to take their order.

The waiter came forward warmly and introduced the inn's special dishes to them.

Xiyu and Zhuge Liang ordered a few dishes and waited quietly.

At this time, Xi Yu's mood had calmed down a lot.

Xi Yu's thoughts drifted back to the previous topic.

He suddenly took the initiative to mention Liu Bei and said, "Liu Bei and Guan Yu have been punished. Do you feel particularly upset?"

Zhuge Liang was stunned when he heard this. He was silent for a moment, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

"It's indeed a bit uncomfortable." Zhuge Liang said slowly, with a barely perceptible melancholy in his voice.

Xi Yu looked at Zhuge Liang's expression and felt a little emotional.

"But the Prime Minister is right, they really brought this upon themselves," Zhuge Liang continued.

Xi Yu looked at Zhuge Liang's answer with satisfaction in his eyes.

He smiled slightly, and felt a little more admiration for Zhuge Liang's rationality and clarity.

At this moment, he didn't want to continue discussing this heavy topic, so he remained silent and waited quietly for the food to be served.

After a while, the waiter brought the food up swiftly.

The steaming dishes exuded an enticing aroma, instantly breaking the slightly depressing atmosphere.

Xi Yu's attention was attracted by the food and he temporarily forgot about the previous topic.

He picked up his chopsticks and began to taste the delicious food.

He told Zhuge Liang not to be polite.

But Zhuge Liang was still a little nervous. (End of this chapter)
