"Pardon me for disturbing you. May I ask if you are His Highness the Prince of Liang?”
Zhu Gaoyan looked up and saw a young girl standing beside him.
The girl was about 12 or 13 years old. Her skin was snow-white and her appearance was toppling. She was wearing a white gothic loli dress and looked very cute.
The most eye-catching thing about her was her light blue eyes. They reflected the light in the dark and bright environment, shining brightly.
Zhu Gaoyan nodded." You know me?”
The girl bowed and smiled sweetly."My name is Katerina, I'm from the West Mist Country, and I'm Zheng He's friend.”
Zhu Gaoyan remembered.
He had some impression of the West Mist Country. Zheng He had mentioned it before at the Hall of Heaven's Tribute.
It was the first time that a vassal country under Zhong Jialuo had established a country.
Zhu Gaoyan smiled and said in a western-style tone,""My friend from West Mist Country, welcome to Great Ming.”
Katerina chuckled." It's my honor to know Your Highness.”
Then, the two of them chatted for a while.
As they chatted, Zhu Gaoyan realized that the girl's way of talking was quite extraordinary. She didn't seem like a twelve-year-old girl at all.
He remembered the name Katerina.
...
On the high platform.
Zhu Di was still dealing with the envoys from various countries.
This time, it was the envoy of the Wuliang Guards who knelt before the prince.
"The Great Khan thinks that we can use the Great Wall as a boundary and give us the land outside Shanhai Pass.”
"This way, we can be safe and sound. The emperor is the ruler of the world."
"Alright, I understand." Zhu Di interrupted the envoy and said,""The land outside the pass is the land of Great Ming, right? The people living outside the pass are my people, right?”
"What do you mean by splitting them up for you? The country is going to split?"
"Zhen has said many times that Great Ming and the Wu Liang Guards have been good friends for generations, as close as brothers. I was very surprised by what you said just now.”
"Tell the Great Khan that if the Wu Liang Guards do not have abundant water and grass, ask him to bring the tribe to Great Ming and ask for as much as he can get.”
"Give me food and tools. You can leave whenever you want. There's one condition."
At this point, Zhu Di's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness." Don't try to test me! The country cannot be divided. This is my bottom line!”
"After the New Year, I will go to Arutai's old troops. Go back and tell the Great Khan that brothers killing each other is the worst thing in the world.”
"Zhen has done it before and regrets it until today."
"As for the Crown Prince, you still have to talk to him and reward him more.”
After Zhu Di finished speaking, he took a piece of pear that Sun Ruowei had cut and put it into his mouth.
Your Highness, the envoy of the Wuliang Guards had already been rendered speechless by Zhu Di's rebuttal. It was a stark contrast to Zhu Di's calm attitude.
In the end, he could only place his arm on his chest and bow before retreating in a sorry state.
Zhu Di looked at Sun Ruowei and said,"I think he's a little rebellious." I want to personally lead an expedition next year to thoroughly solve the problem of Arutai's harassment of the Ming Dynasty.”
"Should we take care of the Wu Liang Guards as well?”
Sun Ruowei sneered.
Zhu Di raised his eyelids." What are you laughing at?”
Sun Ruowei said with an unnatural expression,"Just do it according to the original method."
"What can I do?"
Sun Ruowei raised her head.”
This sentence was obviously mocking Jing Nan.
Zhu Di was slightly stunned and laughed." You're really something. No one dares to say that."”
"Young lady, you are really bold, haha!"
At the end of his sentence, Zhu Di laughed out loud.
At the same time, three sleeve arrows in the crowd aimed at Zhu Di at the same time.
When Zhu Di was most distracted, they fired one after another.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three arrows pierced through the air and shot straight at Zhu Di.
It was also at this moment that the Black Jade Kylin, who had already disguised itself as a guard, appeared. Its ghostly body blocked in front of Zhu Di.
He quickly pulled out the saber at his waist.
Clang! Clang!
Three sharp sounds of metal clashing rang out as the three arrows were blocked.
"Assassins!"
Someone shouted, attracting everyone's attention.
Sun Ruowei subconsciously shielded Zhu Di behind her.
Seeing this, the other guards quickly went forward and surrounded Zhu Di to protect him.
"Father!"
"Grandpa!"
Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaosong, Zhu Gaoyan, and Zhu Zhanji ran to the platform at the same time.
As he ran, Zhu Gaoyan flicked his finger and a date seed flew toward the crowd.
...
In the crowd, the three assassins saw that their attack had missed and decisively retreated.
However, when one of them turned around, he saw a beautiful woman standing behind him.
The assassin opened his mouth wide.
Before he could finish his sentence, the Startling Salamander Sword had already pierced through his chest.
The Startling Salamander pulled out the blood-free sword and put it back into its scabbard.
At the same time, a purple-robed man walked out from behind the other assassin, and the assassin's body fell limply.
The purple-robed man raised his head and met the Startling Salamander's eyes.
"And you are?"
The purple-robed man was stunned.
The Startling Salamander only glanced at him indifferently before disappearing into the crowd.
The scene was extremely chaotic.
The purple-robed man did not care about anything else and quickly went to find the third assassin.
However, when he arrived in front of the assassin, he found that the assassin had already fallen to the ground and had lost his aura.
There was a brown date seed between his eyebrows.
"This…"
The purple-robed man was speechless.
Although he had arranged for people to kill the assassin, the development of the matter far exceeded his expectations.
An assassin was killed by a woman.
An assassin died mysteriously.
As for the three arrows, they were all stopped by an unfamiliar guard before his men could even make a move.
When he looked back, the guard had already disappeared into the crowd.
"There's another group of people here."
The purple-robed man suddenly realized that other than his men, there was another group of people who had long seen through the Han King's scheme.
This shocked him greatly.
One had to know that the Han King's whereabouts were extremely secretive this time.
Even the Embroidered Uniform Guards did not know about the existence of these three assassins.
Not only could this group of people accurately locate the assassins, but they could also kill them all before they could.
This meant that the other party's ability was above theirs!
