I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 193 Is this a sheep?

Nanchu wants to get married, but the person to get married is Cao An?
  All the officials were stunned. Are you going to sacrifice your own princess?

"No, this is our proposal for marriage, so of course Cao An will marry us."

"That's not your argument." Cao An's face turned dark, while everyone in the Tsing Yi Department was suppressing laughter behind him.

Most marriages are a means for the royal families of two countries to marry together and deepen their relationship.

Cao An is just a minister with a foreign surname. This is not called a marriage, but a marriage.

"Yes, that's what it means. The customs are different. It's good if you understand." Yang Gongdao was also straightforward: "We want to be together."

I want you uncle!
  Cao An is very irritable now. No wonder the person just said it was a deal. You are not a marriage at all, you are here to poach someone.

You are also a talent if you can secretly change concepts to such an extent.

"Are you, the Yang Kingdom, crazy? You want my ministers in my court!" Emperor Wan Jing squeezed the dragon chair to a creaking sound, feeling furious in his heart.

Cao An is the most important minister that he relies on now, including the Tsing Yi Department behind him, and he is also the pillar that Daxing must not lose. This deal will definitely not work.

Yang Gongdao shook his head slightly: "Your Majesty, I came all the way from Nanchu. It was not just a temporary decision. It was jointly decided by the three countries of Nanchu. You should know what this means."

It means all-out war.

Emperor Wan Jing's eyes showed deep fear.

Obviously, King An must be connected with Nanchu. If these people are brought along again, I am afraid Daxing will really be in trouble.

Emperor Wan Jing looked at Cao An and asked him why.

Cao An was also confused: "Master Sheep, please wait a moment. I'm very curious, why do you want me to be your bride-in-law when the three countries unite?"

"Of course it's Cao Shuixiu who has shown great bravery in our Southern Chu. He recovered the missing children, killed the Jingfeather Crow King, defeated the Viper Navy, and sank the Black Sail Battleship. Your story has become a household name in our Sheep Country. "

Cao An:......

Everyone:? ? ?
  Didn’t you say last time that you were just passing through Nanchu? I've almost set up a monument for you. Are you sure you're just passing by?
  "Ahem, those princesses who just want to come to your country are not willing to marry me, a stranger."

"It's no stranger. My princess has been thinking about you day and night, so that's why I came here."

"Has she seen me?"

"Of course, this is you."

Yang Gongdao took out a portrait and compared it a little.

The painting shows Cao An with a sideways face, standing on the bow of the ship with a confident smile, and further away, there is a burning black-sailed warship.

"Is it the child rescued on that ship?" Cao An finally understood the key.

Several pairs of twins were captured at that time, and I'm afraid the princess was among them.

Cao An didn't think much about it. After all, the other party was a child. He was still a child at the age of more than ten!
  But it seems that the age of marriage in this world is much earlier and more mature than he thought.

Feeling the strange looks from around him, Cao An swallowed and quickly changed the topic.

"Let's not talk about marriage for now. If you want me to go there, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as your princess, right?"

"Cao Shuixiu is really good at predicting things. Yes, the biggest reason for my trip is that there are some minor situations in our country that I need your help to deal with."

"That's it? Let me help. Do you need a wife?"

"Of course it is necessary. After all, there are some things that we cannot make public."

Cao An nodded, probably understanding what these people meant.

Including Sheep Country, three countries have internal troubles and need to ask for help.

But this troublesome matter is a core secret of a country and cannot be known to outsiders.

Hence the drama of the princess of the Sheep Kingdom, who bravely confesses her love and asks for a marriage. As long as Cao An marries his wife, she will be one of her own and will never leave the Sheep Kingdom, let alone reveal secrets.

"You guys are so thoughtful."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"I'm not complimenting you, I'm being sarcastic."

"Well, your Daxing culture is really hard to understand."

"..."

In short, there is basically no need to talk about this matter.

It is impossible for Cao An to put down his current career and join Nanchu for no reason. Emperor Wan Jing is in urgent need of people now, and it is impossible to let him leave. This seems to be a dead end.

But at the critical moment, Ying Changfeng stood up.

"I think I can let Cao An go over, but it's not a marriage, it's just a simple help."

Yang Gongdao and Emperor Wan Jing both frowned at this suggestion.

One does not want the family secrets to be leaked, and the other is worried that Cao An will be detained. This is a transaction of mutual distrust.

"It's very reliable to have ministers mediate." Ying Changfeng patted Yang Gongdao's shoulder confidently, leaned into his ear, and talked through sound transmission.

Gradually, Yang Gongdao's face showed a look of shock, and his eyes looking at Ying Changfeng were filled with fear.

"You, you actually..."

"Haha, how about it? Do you want to agree to my proposal?"

"This matter...let me think about it."

From the intimidation just now to the defeat now, Ying Changfeng is worthy of being the Wild Wolf General. He actually forced Yang Gongdao back with just a few words. Is this the power of the God of War General?

On the other hand, Emperor Wan Jing was a little hesitant: "Ying Aiqing, is this too risky?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will do my best to protect Cao An. For the sake of great prosperity, the Tsing Yi Department is willing to shoulder the burden of Nanchu."

It’s true that a friend in need is a friend indeed!

Emperor Wan Jing finally understood the loyalty of the Tsing Yi Department at this moment.

"Ying Aiqing, Cao Aiqing, thank you for your hard work."

……

"Hard work? It's not hard at all. This time our Tsing Yi Department went to Nanchu to relax!" "Hoo!!"

After the morning meeting, Ying Changfeng hurried back to the Tsing Yi Department and announced the good news in public.

Cao An stood aside, stunned.

"Sir, are you sure we are going?"

"Of course, didn't you say that it's best not to get involved in the internal fight between King He'an and Emperor Wanjing? I'm tired of this kind of imperial power struggle, so we might as well go out together."

"But the matter hasn't been decided yet! Didn't that person say he would consider it?"

"Haha, that's just an excuse to find me privately. He has no choice."

As soon as he finished speaking, the clerk hurriedly came to report that Yang Gongdao had indeed arrived.

Cao An's face was full of shock: "Sir, I didn't expect you to know things like a god!"

"Well, it doesn't really count. I just took advantage of them and threatened them."

With that said, Yang Gongdao came in, with a sad look on his face, and it seemed that he agreed to the request.

After hearing them start discussing the trip to Nanchu, Cao An understood the key point.

……

Sheep Country is a very special country. They make a living by herding sheep.

But don’t think that herding sheep is an easy job.

Among the twelve kingdoms of Southern Chu, the Yang Kingdom ranks among the top three in terms of combat power. The only drawback is that there will be some problems within its clan from time to time.

"And I have actually known their core secrets for a long time. It doesn't matter whether I marry or not." Ying Changfeng said proudly.

This morning in the court, Ying Changfeng sent a message and revealed the secret, making the marriage meaningless.

Even if they don't cooperate now, they are more worried that Ying Changfeng will tell the secret.

"Don't worry, I didn't tell this secret ten years ago, and I won't tell it today."

"Huh? You knew this ten years ago? Why didn't you report it to the court?"

"I resigned at that time and was very angry."

Back then, Ying Changfeng was at war with Nanchu. In order to break through the Yang Kingdom, he did a lot of investigations and found out the secrets of the Yang Kingdom.

Unfortunately, before he could exert any force to counterattack, the Changtianmen Incident broke out and his daughter was seriously injured, so he disbanded in frustration.

Yang Gongdao knew that they meant no harm and finally felt relieved: "These things are goods brought to you."

"Goods?" Cao An saw that the several large boxes he brought seemed similar to those given to Emperor Wanjing in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"these are?"

"Master Chiguang asked me to bring you the protective clothing you customized."

"Oh? How is the quality?"

"Of course it won't be the rubbish given to that stupid emperor."

"..."

You are also unscrupulous. Cao An usually scolds you in a roundabout way, but you are very direct!

When you open the box, you will see a silver-colored luster and a texture as thin as cicada wings. One side fits the skin, and the other side can be used to match outerwear.

Wearing it on the body will not affect the movement, but has considerable defensive capabilities. Ordinary arrows cannot cause damage to it.

There are five pieces of fifth-grade protective clothing, and they are indeed of much better quality than those dedicated to the emperor.

"It's not these. These are the failed works of Master Chiguang. He said to send them here together and you can make do with them. The customized ones are here."

"???"

Level 5 protective clothing, okay?
  The two pieces ordered by Cao An and the others...

boom!
  The lock of the box was opened, and the rippling energy from the protective clothing lifted the lid of the box.

One red and one blue, two glimmers of light appeared on the protective clothing, looking extremely extraordinary.

"Third-grade protective clothing, Master Chiguang said, it's not perfect yet, so you just have to make do with it. If I find good materials later, I'll get you a better set."

"Sigh~~"

Nanchu is indeed rich in great craftsmen!

This is the third grade!

Not perfect yet? If Emperor Wan Jing finds out, he may have a nightmare tonight.

Touching it is as smooth as satin, and the restrained soft light penetrates the skin and blends into the body, making people feel refreshed and the muscles and veins open.

The clothes made of tinder are like fire clouds. After the movement, the body is as light as a swallow and can turn into fire feathers and glide in the air.

As for Cao An, his Shuiyun Armor can store twice the sword energy. This was his request to Master Chi Guang, but he didn't expect it to come true.

Ordinary sword intent naturally has little effect when stored.

But Cao An has the [Bafang Hidden Sword Style]!

Save two moves in advance, and when needed, you can perform three rounds of [Bafang Hidden Sword Style] in one go, which is 24 sword energy, and the explosive power is absolutely terrifying.

With good equipment, Cao An was of course very happy.

Looking on the other side, the meeting between Yang Gongdao and Ying Changfeng has also ended.

The final result was probably that the two of them jointly advised Emperor Wan Jing to promote this trip to Southern Chu.

The wedding gift prepared before was also regarded as a reward for this help.

Soon, the gift was brought to Cao An with expectant eyes.

This is the most precious treasure of the Sheep Kingdom: a sheep.
