Chapter 579
Lu Shicuo's voice was not high-pitched, but he exuded an aura that meant what he said.

Franco and Edgardo looked at each other, nodded and said nothing.

In fact, there is no need for Lu Shiyan to say more, they also know what will happen if Xie Xuelong dies in Mexico City.Not to mention what kind of actions Daming will take, just this fleet docked outside the port is enough for them to drink a pot.

"Shiyun, don't worry. I've seen the map. It's not far from Mexico City, and I'll be back in about ten days. You and everyone can wait here with peace of mind, and don't cause trouble."

Xie Xuelong saw that the atmosphere was a little tense, so he smiled and said to Lu Shixuan.

Lu Shiyan saw that Xuelong had opened his mouth, so he didn't say any more.

"Master, be careful all the way."

"Will do!"

Xie Xuelong nodded and looked at Franco.

"Let's go."

"Row!"

Then, Xie Xuelong boarded Franco's boat and slowly drove towards the port.

During Edgardo's absence, the Port of Veracruz hasn't changed much.

Under the order of Philip IV, all warships and merchant ships were obediently docked in the port and were not allowed to go out.

Franco's arrival brought a commotion to the port.

It was discovered that it was our own fleet, which made the people in the port extremely excited.

Under the blockade of the Ming Fleet, the entire fleet can be swaggered in.There are only two possibilities, one is that they defeated Mingren's fleet, and the other is that they reached a settlement with Mingren.

But judging from the combat power displayed by the Mingren fleet, it seems that the second is more convincing.

When a group of officers saw Edgardo disembarking from Franco's boat at the dock, their suspicions were further confirmed.

Franco and Mino must have come to some sort of agreement.

After that, they saw Xie Xuelong in a long gown, and they were beyond surprised.

"Lord Edgardo, you are finally back." One of Edgardo's confidants pounced on him the first time he saw him. During the days when he was away, his confidants were not having a good life.Not only was he ridiculed all day long, but he also had to endure pressure from all aspects.

The questioning from the family members of the dead soldiers, the merchants stranded on the merchant ships of various countries in the port, and the exclusion from their peers made them burnt out.Especially when Edgardo's life and death were uncertain, it made them feel anxious every day.

Seeing Edgardo alive at this time is like finding the backbone again, not to mention how happy he is.

"Is everything okay at the port these days when I'm away?"

"good."

"Okay?" Edgardo frowned and wanted to ask a question, but remembering that it was not the time to ask a question, he looked at Xuelong Xuelong. "Master Xie, come to my residence to rest for a while?"

"No, it's still early today, so I'll continue on the road with Franco. The sooner we get to Mexico City, the sooner we can meet your king, right? Franco, what do you mean?"

Jie Xuelong shook his head and rejected Edgardo's proposal.

"Exactly, Edgardo, we won't stay here any longer. We haven't arrived at noon yet, so let's go early. When Master Xie comes back from Mexico, please entertain him well. There will be plenty of opportunities then."

"Okay, since that's the case, I won't keep you anymore. Master Xie, when you come back, you must stay with me for two days, and let me treat you well."

"As long as we can talk to your majesty the king, everything is easy to talk about."

After being sent off by Edgardo, Xie Xuelong and Franco left the port together and continued towards Mexico City.

They were riding in a luxurious four-wheeled carriage, which ran fairly smoothly.At the beginning, Xie Xuelong looked at the scenery outside the window and ate some Spanish-style food while resting, which didn't feel boring.But after a long time, I gradually felt like sailing on the sea, and it became boring.

Fortunately, the Port of Veracruz is not far from Mexico City, and the straight-line distance is about [-] miles. They traveled lightly, and they were close to Mexico City in only five days.

"Commissioner, we will reach Mexico City in another thirty to forty miles. It's getting late now, let's take a rest. There is a hotel in front of us, and we will probably be able to enter the city at noon tomorrow."

Franco looked at the distance, then at the sky, and made a suggestion to Xie Xuelong.

"Okay, listen to you!"

After driving for several days, Xie Xuelong was also a little tired.He moved his bumpy and numb waist, and looked around.

It seemed to be a small market here, but it was getting late and no one was doing business.

A little farther away, there is a shop with a lighted door, which appears in the dimness.It was a two-story building, looking a little dilapidated, as if it was waiting for their arrival.

Franco walked side by side with him at the front of the team, followed by Xiao Wu and a dozen guards.

"Prepare two rooms for us, we will stay in a hotel."

After entering the door, Franco said to an old man sitting behind the dim light.

"Two rooms? No, only one."

"One room?" Franco frowned. "Then how do you live?"

Let alone him, Xie Xuelong has a special status, so he can't sleep in the same bed with him, right?If it doesn't work, pitch a tent outside.

For the past few days, they have been camping in the wild, thinking that they are closer to Mexico City, and it is better to live in a house than in a tent.I didn't expect to have to live in a tent tonight.

"Although it is one room, it has two beds, which can sleep two people."

"Two people? That's not possible. Xiao Wu, you and the supervisor can live here, and we can sleep in tents in the open space outside the market."

Xie Xuelong heard the words, nodded and did not refuse.

Seeing that we will arrive at our destination soon, no matter what, it will only be one night, and it is meaningless to push around.

"That's okay, Master Xie will just have a night, eat something and rest early. Tomorrow morning, let's move on, and when we arrive in Mexico City, the conditions will be thousands of times better than this. I will entertain you well then."

"Haha, you're welcome. I'm not that spoiled either."

The two chatted casually, and Franco left behind four guards and led the others out of the market.

Xie Xuelong and Xiao Wu went upstairs together under the leadership of the old man, and entered a darker room.

There was a musty smell in the room, which smelled a little pungent.

Might as well live outside in a tent.

Xie Xuelong thought so.

Forget it, come here.

"The bed is there, and the quilts are all ready-made. If you want convenience, go to the back. Or, there."

The old man lit the kerosene lamp, pointed to the two beds by the wall, and a wooden barrel in the corner.

After finishing speaking, he walked out directly, leaving the two people looking at each other in blank dismay.

"Supervisor."

"Go to sleep, just don't take off your clothes. It's better than sleeping in a tent, isn't it?"
