[Interstellar] The king who doesn't want to return

The palace was bustling for most of the night, and the exhausted guards scolded the person who designed the air shock alarm to death, but they never found anything unusual. In the end, when the alarm sounded, everyone just formally entered the room. Circle it.

In such a situation, Tang Rui sneaked into the hall with ease, and against the harsh siren, he calmly put the small bottle containing the poison into a potted plant on the windowsill, and had time to dig the soil to cover it up before leaving.

After a while, the tired guards arrived late.

"Leave." Tang Rui pulled Zhou Yuze, who was having fun, and slipped out of the palace along the same path.

When they came to a secluded place, the two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing together.

"Let's go for supper!" Tang Rui grabbed Zhou Yuze's shoulders and left.

Of course, in the second half of the night, only the food stalls are open for supper, and a bunch of workers who have been off night work get together to drink some wine and have a barbecue, which is quite lively.

This is the second time for Zhou Yuze to come to this kind of place, but the first time he drank white wine by mistake, which made Tang Rui very upset.

"Why, remember the past?" Tang Rui knew what he was thinking just by looking at his face.

Zhou Yuze smiled, rolled up his sleeves, took the meat skewers, brushed them with sauce, and grilled them on the charcoal fire. Although the movements were a bit jerky, it was not the first time that he just watched and didn't know what to do. up.

Tang Rui ordered a glass of cheap beer from a small stall, and drank it while enjoying the service of his lover.

Zhou Yuze handed him a few skewers of meat, and started grilling his own.

"Is it fun?" Tang Rui asked.

Zhou Yuze was startled, and then realized that he was asking about the farce in the palace just now, and couldn't help laughing again.

Tang Rui took another sip of cold beer, put down his glass, and was about to speak, when suddenly, there seemed to be some commotion outside the food stall.

Zhou Yuze raised his eyebrows, and his right hand was already under the table, ready to draw his gun at any time.

"Don't be impulsive." Tang Rui pressed his hand and shook his head.

After carefully filtering today's events in his mind, he didn't find any flaws. He was almost sure that it wasn't aimed at them.

The next moment, a man dressed as a bodyguard walked into the food stall full of oily smoke, glanced around, and walked straight towards Tang Rui.

"Senior." Zhou Yuze whispered.

Tang Rui knew that he wanted to say pre-emptive strikes, but as soon as he thought about it, he remembered another possibility that he had almost forgotten, and then he relaxed, and he was still in the mood to pick up the glass and continue drinking beer.

"Mr. Ling, right?" The bodyguard looked at Tang Rui with doubts, but his tone was clearly confirmed.

Zhou Yuze was startled, and then remembered that this "Mr. Ling" seemed to be the fake identity Tang Rui used when they entered the imperial capital as a smuggling ship.

After all, if they are in the imperial capital, if they can't be found out at all, they will arouse suspicion. It is so half-hidden, and it will take a lot of effort to find out the unsightly identity of "smugglers". The reader can naturally stop with satisfaction, and will not think of the cover-up method used to cover up a deeper layer of identity.

In the final analysis, the use of blind spots in human nature.

"You've got the wrong person." Tang Rui rolled his eyes.

"Okay, sir." The bodyguard didn't argue with him whether he had admitted the wrong person, but changed his words very politely, "My lady is here."

"I don't want to be a cowherd." Tang Rui said angrily.

The bodyguard's complexion finally changed, but he still suppressed his anger, and relayed the words of the master word by word: "Miss said, I have another big deal to talk to sir, and I promise to satisfy him."

Tang Rui didn't speak for a while, and leisurely ate all the meat skewers cooked by Zhou Yuze, and drank the last drop of wine.

"Please." The bodyguard made another gesture of invitation.

Tang Rui stood up, turned his head and asked, "Your lady pays the bill?"

"Of course." The muscles on the bodyguard's face twitched.

"Thank you for the hospitality." Tang Rui put on his coat and greeted, "Xiao Zhou, go home and sleep."

"Oh." Zhou Yuze lowered his head, suppressed the smile on his lips, and obediently followed him out.

"Mr. Ling, please wait a moment!" The bodyguard wanted to chase him out, but was stopped by the boss. He quickly took out his ID card to pay the bill, and then hurried out, knocking over two empty chairs along the way.

Fortunately, Tang Rui did not take the opportunity to sneak away. On the empty street, he could see the two holding hands as if they were walking.

"Mr. Ling, please wait a moment." Following the bodyguard's words, a black car stopped beside them.

It is not the kind of high-tech automatic driving, but it is very retro, just like the car used by nobles thousands of years ago.

The glass in the back seat slowly fell, revealing the speaker's enchanting face.

Tang Rui whistled and looked at her unscrupulously.

"Presumptuous!" The bodyguard couldn't help shouting angrily.

"You two, please get in the car and talk." Elise waved her hand and stopped her.

"Is there any wine?" Tang Rui asked.

"Of course." Elise smiled.

The bodyguard opened the car door, Tang Rui was not polite this time, and pulled Zhou Yuze into the car.

The interior of the car is very spacious, with a set of sofas facing each other. On the coffee table in the middle are not only wine, but also delicate snacks and fruits. Three tall glasses indicate that this is not a temporary invitation.

"It did take a little longer to find Mr. Ling's identity." Elise said in a rambling voice, picking up the red wine with her own hands, pouring all three glasses, and then laughed, "Although it's not something vintage , but it is indeed a special product produced by the Royal Vineyard of the Imperial Capital, the two of you should try it?"

Tang Rui didn't answer, picked up a glass, turned it lightly, and the bright red wine swirled along the glass.

"Please." Yili drank it without any pretense.

"My little Zhou doesn't know how to drink." Tang Rui held Zhou Yuze in his arms with one hand, and slowly sipped the wine glass with the other.

Their fake identities were made by Zuo Shaobai, of course they are just right, they won't be too easy to find out and feel unreal, and they won't be too well hidden.

"Mr. Ling really dotes on my lover." A trace of regret flashed in Elise's eyes.

Originally, she really liked this clean and well-behaved boy, but after finding out his identity, she had no choice but to give up.It's not because of this smuggling line, it's just that she is not interested in men who belong to others.

"The business Her Royal Highness said?" Tang Rui raised his glass.

"I want all the goods that Mr. Ling brought over this time." Elise raised her eyebrows, and put the glass on the coffee table with a "boom".

"His Royal Highness knows how much I brought?" Tang Rui was noncommittal, stroking Zhou Yuze's hair smoothly.

Zhou Yuze cooperated with half-closed eyes, leaning against his chest, like a well-behaved pet cat, but at an angle that Elise couldn't see, he held the handle of the gun with one hand.

Even if it is an air gun, it is enough to kill someone at such a distance in the car.

"It did take a bit of work." Elise smiled, raised a pair of hands with scarlet nails, and gracefully compared a number.

Tang Rui changed his posture, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

Sure enough, he was the most powerful contender for the throne of Ray Olins, and it took only half a day to find out to this extent.

Although these are the information set by Zuo Shaobai and will eventually be found out, Elise's efficiency is also extraordinary. This number is indeed not far from the ammunition they brought over as goods.

"What do you want, Mr. Ling?" Elise said calmly, "I know you and Sauron have always had deals, but I don't mind."

"The fifth prince is very generous." Tang Rui spread his hands.

"I'm also very generous." Elise smiled sweetly.

"It's business, it's not about earning someone's money." Tang Rui crossed his legs, as if he said casually, "It's just that the front line is very lively now, and it's not easy to bring things over."

"Add [-]% to the market price." Yili said without hesitation.

"His Royal Highness is indeed very generous." Tang Rui kept his expression calm and showed a thoughtful look, "The First Prince seems to be the commander-in-chief of the entire army? Isn't it a bit inappropriate for His Royal Highness to store arms privately in the imperial capital?"

"No way, in order to ensure the stability of the rear, it is also very hard for me to stay behind." Elise spread her hands, very calm.

"Hehe." Tang Rui laughed.

"By the way, there is a ball in the palace this weekend. If Mr. Ling is free, you might as well come and have fun." Elise didn't plan to finalize the deal right away, so she generously let go of this topic for the time being, and turned around from her mobile phone. A golden invitation letter twitched in the bag.

Tang Rui's unexpected look this time is not completely faked, the dance... If they knew it would be easy to get in, why would they jump up and down like this?However, he soon realized that this was definitely not a good opportunity.

He can enter the ball, but he can't be involved in the assassination, at most he can cover for Su Yingtang.

Assassinating the emperor, although it is the most important part of this mission, is just the beginning. The opportunity to get online with Princess Elise cannot be wasted like this.

"Thank you for the invitation." Tang Rui took the invitation letter and put it into Zhou Yuze's arms.

"It's very charming for Mr. Ling to tidy up." Elise smiled.

"But Your Royal Highness doesn't seem to be fascinated." Tang Rui spread his hands in regret.

"It's not good to say that in front of my little lover," Elise said.

"Jealous?" Tang Rui patted Zhou Yuze's face with a smile.

"No." Zhou Yuze replied softly, put his arm around his neck, continued to rub against his shoulder, and yawned, "I'm sleepy."

"Sleep when you're full, what a little pig." Tang Rui pinched his nose lovingly.

"Where does Mr. Ling live, I'll see you off." Elise said knowingly.

"Emperor Capital Hotel." Tang Rui said bluntly.

The car began to start slowly, and the Imperial Capital Hotel was very close to the palace, and it was only half a circle around.

"Mr. Ling can think about it again, after all... it's not good to be too big." Elise pointedly said.

"Thank you for your advice." Tang Rui opened the door, got out of the car with his arms around Zhou Yuze, paused, then turned around and said, "In return, I also have one thing to remind Your Highness. I have endured it for a long time, so I have to say it."

"What?" Seeing his serious expression, the calm expression on Elise's face couldn't help but be broken.

"Your Highness, it is immoral to infringe upon the right of portrait." Tang Rui finished speaking solemnly, took Zhou Yuze into his arms, and walked into the hotel lobby humming.

Elise was stunned for a moment, and it took a while to react. She immediately opened the hidden compartment under the coffee table and opened the hidden optical brain.

Sure enough, there was a snowflake on the screen, and there was no image left. Obviously, the monitoring in the car was completely destroyed.

"Damn it!" Elise punched the car wall angrily.

After a long while, the anger on her face faded away, and instead there was a faint appreciation.

As expected of an arms smuggler who has been pursued by the Federation for many years but is still at ease, he has never seen him do anything.

However... This time she really wanted Tang Rui.

Tang Rui's mechanical level is indeed very powerful, but not so powerful that he can destroy the monitoring without moving his hands...

"Senior, here it is." Zhou Yuze put a bunch of parts in Tang Rui's hands as if begging for praise.

"Study well." Tang Rui took the room card from the front desk and patted his head with a smile.

Teaching Zhou Yuze how to learn mechanics is really a long-term reward. He attracted Elise's attention. Zhou Yuze can easily make a lot of little tricks by using the harmless role of "male pet". .

However, tonight's surprise was the invitation to the dance.
