stern wife

Chapter 719

Everyone had different thoughts, but Longlin didn't seem to realize it, and only looked at Emperor Chixuan firmly.

Emperor Chixuan was also surprised.

He thinks it is reasonable for others not to help him, after all Suzaku's military strength is indeed not as good as Xuanwu's.

But someone really stood up and was willing to help him at the same risk of destroying the country as Suzaku, which made him suspect that there was a fraud in it.

What's more, this was repaired by his right-hand man-although the other party asked for it.

Would the king of a country not care about losing to a slender girl in front of everyone?
Emperor Chixuan was suspicious, narrowed his eyes slightly, and re-examined the monarch from Longying.

There was a smile on his face, and he stood up gratefully and said:

"Thank you, Lord Longying, for your full support! I and the people of Suzaku will always remember this great kindness. If you can't repay it in this life, you will be willing to be a cow and a horse in the next life to repay your kindness!"

Longlin also got up to return the salute, but his tone was indifferent, saying:
"That's not necessary. Gu didn't make such a decision for remuneration, it's just a matter of seeing injustice and drawing his sword to help."

Paying so much and not asking for anything in return?

Emperor Chixuan was more suspicious, but he still praised with a smile:
"It's rare that there are such righteous people in the world, and I deeply admire them. Come, let me offer you a toast!"

Picking up the wine glass with one stroke, Emperor Chixuan gulped it down in one gulp.

Long Lin also drank the wine in his cup.

However, the expression on his face was still faint.

Even though there were many old men present who knew people well, they still couldn't see what the young king was thinking.

Having achieved his goal, Emperor Chixuan didn't stay any longer and left the table early.

In case he is around, everyone will have a bad time.

Pei Xiaoran stayed and entertained guests for Emperor Chixuan.

After the lords were all happy, when sending the lords away, Longlin suddenly turned around, stared directly at Pei Xiaoran, and asked:
"I don't know if Gu will be lucky enough to compete with General Pei again?"

Different from the indifference towards Emperor Chixuan, at this moment, under the reflection of the surrounding fire, there was a faint frenzy in those dark eyes.

"what?"

Pei Xiaoran was stunned for a moment, and then he didn't know what to think of, his beautiful round eyes narrowed, and he said with a fake smile:
"The Lord Longying is just joking. The Lord Longying has a great favor for me, Suzaku. How could Xiaoran not comply with such a small request?"

Don't you just want to be beaten?Just in time, she was worrying about how to deal with him!

This was brought up by him himself, don't regret it when the time comes.

It was a little surprising that the girl would agree.

With the other party's implicitly hostile attitude towards him, he thought that the other party would reject him.

However, no matter what the reason is, as long as the other party agrees.

It's not to avenge the last time, the reason why Longlin made such a request to Pei Xiaoran was just because he met his opponent and wanted to compete with him again.

His instinct as a martial artist told him that there was unfathomable power lurking in this girl.

And, it doesn't stop there.

She is also smart and calm, and her demeanor clearly shows the style of a general.

For some reason, Longlin believed for no reason that in the battle with Xuanwu, as long as Suzaku had Pei Xiaoran around, he would never lose!
Moreover, he also wanted to see how much talent this young girl had.

Because of this, he chose to side with Suzaku so resolutely.

He firmly believed that this seemingly slender and weak girl in front of him would never let him down.

"Please tell me the time, Lord Long Ying, Xiao Ran will definitely accompany you to the end."

With a hook of her pink and tender lips, Pei Xiaoran smiled innocently.

-

The night is getting darker, the bustle fades away, and when you climb up the tower and look far away, you can see that there are many palaces and continuous ups and downs. Under the radiance of the moonlight, it is even more majestic and magnificent, endless.

However, Suzaku Supreme, who possesses all these, is standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance, his eyebrows unfurled.

It's not that he is greedy for life and afraid of death.

It's just that Xuanwu came prepared this time, and he didn't have many powerful helpers. This battle may be more or less fatal.

And once Suzaku is defeated, not only will he not be able to keep his ancestral foundation, but with Xuanwu's temperament of revenge and jealousy, he will never let Suzaku's people go.

As the head of a country, how can you not worry about it?
Suddenly there was a small sound outside the door.

Emperor Chixuan was also a martial artist, although the opponent's footsteps were extremely soft, he was caught by him.

And the movement was still very familiar, before the little eunuch at the door could raise his voice, Emperor Chixuan had already opened his mouth and said:

"come in."

After a while, the door opened, and a slender figure walked in.

Emperor Chixuan turned around, and as expected, he saw that the other party had already knelt on one knee, saluting him respectfully.

Emperor Chixuan couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, there was really nothing he could do with this little thing.

No matter how many years have passed, and no matter how close the relationship between the two has become, Pei Xiaoran has always treated him with the same courtesy and courtesy, and has never exceeded the rules in the slightest.

This persistence and sincerity may make even the most senior official in the court feel ashamed.

"Get up."

For some reason, looking at this loyalty visible to the naked eye, Emperor Chixuan suddenly felt that the worries that had been lingering in his heart and lingering in his heart had disappeared a lot.

Although the person in front of him is young, he is like a needle for calming the sea, seeing it makes people feel at ease.

It was as if the sky would fall and she would hold it up, firm as a rock, fearless.

But Pei Xiaoran is indeed not afraid of anything.

As a general, anyone can be afraid of death.

Only she can't.

"I don't know why His Majesty summoned Xiaoran to come here?"

Seeing his Majesty staring at him in silence, Pei Xiaoran couldn't help asking curiously.

As soon as she sent the several lords back to their respective lodgings safely, she heard that Emperor Chixuan wanted to summon her, so she hurried over immediately.

Emperor Chixuan came back to his senses, the melancholy just now disappeared like a cloud of smoke.

In the blink of an eye, he was the aloof, majestic and domineering ruler of a country again.

The monarch and his subjects have been getting along for many years, and the politeness is superfluous. Emperor Chixuan said bluntly:
"What do you think, the Lord of the Dragon Ying...what's the intention?"

As soon as he heard the word 'Lord of the Dragon Ying', Pei Xiaoran's two delicate eyebrows couldn't help but frown.

Seeing this, Emperor Chixuan thought that Pei Xiaoran also suspected that Longlin had ulterior motives, so he continued:
"That dragon scale, I'm afraid he was secretly bribed by Xuanwu a long time ago, on the surface he was not seduced by Xuanwu's tricks, but in fact, he was doing things for Xuanwu!
He said he was going to help Suzaku with all his strength, but when the fight really broke out, who knows if he will suddenly turn against each other and let us suffer from the enemy?
Otherwise, if it's not a relative, why would he spare no effort to help me, Suzaku? "

When Pei Xiaoran heard this, he knew that Emperor Chixuan had misunderstood.

However, Emperor Chixuan's words were not unreasonable, Long Ying and Suzaku had not had much contact before.

The lord of the dragon couplet suddenly appeared and said that he would do his best to help Suzaku, and anyone would be suspicious.

However, Pei Xiaoran had other ideas.
