I really didn't take the emperor of the enemy country as a stand-in

Time flies, another year has passed, and the situation in the world has changed drastically.

Originally, the alliance headed by Xin Guo would gather every two years in the palace on the border of Xin Guo. This year, Nan Qiong took the lead in offering to host the gathering, and his disobedience was clearly revealed.The other small countries immediately became subtle, and they were all looking forward to a big show where the new rich challenged the old power.

However, Zhong Lan was very happy when he received the news: "Go to Nanqiong!"

Soon after, the convoy set off, and after five days, it finally entered the territory of South Qiong.

It was getting late, and everyone was still far away from the city, so they picked a nearby inn to book out.

The store owner was ashamed: "Gentlemen, I'm really sorry. The younger ones have tried their best to clear the place, but there is still a high-ranking adult who refuses to leave. This, the younger ones really can't help it."

"My son has no intention of arguing with you. He doesn't want to leave because his legs and feet are inconvenient. It's getting late now, so please forgive me. The son is from the Xu family in the capital. He has a family reputation guarantee and is an upright person. We live on the second floor. I will go out and will never disturb you.”

Everyone turned around.A youth in Tsing Yi with a sword stood at the stairs, handsome and upright, bowing to everyone outside the door. He was also a young man with a handsome appearance. To have such a servant, the master must be from a famous family.

The guard frowned, looking unfriendly, and was about to refuse.

Suddenly, a gentle and pleasant voice said softly: "Be kind to others, just ask them to stay."

The young man in Tsing Yi's expression changed slightly, and he took a closer look.Surrounded by the crowd, a young man in a black robe had a gentle and handsome face like jade, with a slight smile on his face.

He bowed immediately: "Thank you, nobleman."

After speaking, he turned around eagerly and went upstairs directly.

Everyone went upstairs to check in.The chefs in the motorcade borrowed the back kitchen to prepare meals, and Zhong Lan's dinner was delivered to the room, while the guards and eunuchs sat around in the lobby for dinner.

When they went downstairs, they found that the table in the farthest corner had already been served with dishes, and the young man in Tsing Yi was serving dishes for Mr. Xu.

Mr. Xu is dressed in red and has a thin body. He also wears a curtain indoors. The wide white gauze hangs down to his ankles to cover his figure. Only a corner of the white gauze on his face is lifted for eating. The same colorless.He picks up vegetables very slowly, and even the chopsticks are hard to control.

Everyone is stunned.It turned out that this young man was such a sick man, no wonder he couldn't leave.

They let go of their vigilance and curiosity, and started to eat on their own. Although they couldn't make any noise, they also started talking in a relaxed manner.

"There are still two days until we arrive at the Nanqiong Palace. In the past, it was much more convenient to hold meetings at our own home."

"In the past two years, Nanqiong has conquered the city, annexed the three kingdoms, and become a hegemon from a small country in one fell swoop. Thinking about it, I will never be willing to be a vassal again."

"Your Majesty benevolent, who doesn't know that Xin Guo is the only place to live and work in peace and contentment today? Don't push up other people's ambitions."

……

Mr. Xu pointed aimlessly at the empty plate with the tip of his chopsticks, as if he had little interest in the dishes.

Suddenly, the topic of everyone's gossip began to shift.

"This Li Yunbai is the only one."

"That's right, this meeting is a serious matter, and the monarch must bring him out, not only that, he even rides with him!"

"The king's doting on son Yao back then was very similar to what it is now. Oh, later on, the king also doted on a son, Wen, but the time was too short, so no one remembered it, so he couldn't be ranked."

The tip of the chopsticks hit the plate hard, making a harsh sound.

In the lobby, the sound of plates clashing one after another, no one paid attention.The young man in Tsing Yi carefully leaned into Mr. Xu's ear: "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"Sheng Yun, ask the chef for a raw bitter gourd."

"Yes."

Sheng Yun came back with the bitter gourd in his hands, and watched in horror as "Mr. Xu" put the bitter gourd into his mouth while listening to the gossip without any disturbance.

"Have you heard? Just now His Majesty asked someone to bring hot water up."

"Li Yunbai and His Majesty live in two adjacent rooms, but this man has been staying in His Majesty's room all the time."

Bang—Master Xu slammed the table and stood up.

Everyone in the lobby was silent for a moment, looking back at the table in the corner.

Mr. Xu swayed as if he had tripped over a table leg.Sheng Yun immediately came over to support him.

Everyone thought it was an accident and started eating again without any concern.

Sheng Yun pretended to support Mr. Xu all the way upstairs.On the other side of the stairs is Zhonglan's room.Four or five guards stood on both sides.

The two of them were about to go back to the other side of the corridor when they suddenly heard a voice coming from the crack of the not-so-thick wooden door.

"Your Majesty, I, I can't do it."

"Your Majesty, let Yun Bai go, my face is too red."

"Ah, not here!"

Mr. Xu's steps stopped suddenly, and he stood still on the spot, and the hand that supported Sheng Yun burst out with veins.

Zhong Lang was done, and clapped his hands in satisfaction: "That's it."

"Your Majesty, this rouge is too red, how can a man be so delicate?" Li Yunbai twitched, as if he had lost his ideals, "It's too exaggerated."

"It's not something shameful for a man to put on makeup. Why do you make it look like I'm going to do something to you." Zhong Lang pushed him to sit in front of the bronze mirror.

He once learned how to dress up when he was doing an undercover mission in a small world, so makeup is naturally a no-brainer.

When Li Yunbai saw the person in the mirror clearly, he suddenly started to vibrate, but his eyes fell on the face of Zhong Lan standing behind him in the mirror, and the two lowered their heads in comparison.

"Why, not satisfied?" Zhong Lang sighed, and put his hands on his hips, "I just asked them to bring hot water up. If you are not satisfied, just wash it off and start over."

"Satisfied. It's just that compared with His Majesty's appearance, I only rely on makeup."

"Don't be coy, if you do this again, I will stop your pocket money."

Li Yunbai shook his head frantically, "No way!"

Zhong Lan blushed: "Tell me, what do you want?!"

"Insanely rich!"

"So what's your goal?"

Li Yunbai's eyes glowed with money, and he clenched his fists: "Marry the richest and most powerful person!"

"Be ambitious!" Zhong Lan patted Li Yunbai on the shoulder, "Cheer up, we have to continue designing the look. Before we meet Wen Yao, we have to dress you up like a moonshine!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise downstairs.Soon, the guards knocked on the door.

"Your Majesty, someone downstairs has come to make trouble, saying that the inn belongs to them."

Zhong Lan frowned.Although they would not publicize their identities for safety reasons along the way, anyone with a little insight saw the two gorgeous carriages parked in the yard and knew that the people inside should not be offended.

He went down with Li Yunbai and found that the guards were confronting another group of Nanqiong people.

The other party was arrogant: "Our master is the tenth prince. Even if the heavenly king and Lao Tzu come to Nanqiong, we will have to look at our master's face when he sees him. If it weren't for the fact that there is no place in front of the village and no shops in the back, we would look down on this inn. It's an honor for you to make way for us."

Xin Guo's guard smiled: "It's just a little prince, I'm coming from Xin Guo, but I'm the honored guest of your monarch."

"Xin State, is it the cowardly Xin State? Is it the Xin State whose monarch only knows how to enjoy flowers and have fun, and the benevolence of women? Is it the Xin State that has never fought wars recently?"

Everyone's faces turned pale, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Zhong Lan and Li Yunbai had just come down from the second floor, their eyes narrowed slightly, and their eyes fell on the face of the playful young man behind.

The Tenth Prince played a lot of roles in the original novel.He was different from the other princes in Nanqiong, he stood in line with Wen Yao from the beginning to the end, he was a little follower, and he was the only prince who survived after Wen Yao came to power.He is extremely simple-minded and has a bad temper. He is just a dandy image used to make jokes.

Even knowing that the tenth prince will be Wen Yao's follower in the future, Zhong Lan's expression changed.

He had tolerated Wen Yao before in order to rest and retire comfortably, but it didn't mean that his dignity could be compromised for this matter.

The Tenth Prince also noticed Zhong Lang's gaze. He was stunned by the beauty for a moment, thinking about it, but suddenly he withdrew those expressions, raised his chin aggressively and stared at Zhong Lang, as if declaring war on him, wanting to Conquer each other.

Zhong Lan said in a deep voice: "Come here, take him down. Take him to the palace to show Mr. Nan Qiong how his prince is raised."

The tenth prince laughed arrogantly and evilly: "How dare you? Now Nan Qiong is not that old thing..."

"Ahem, what happened?"

The tense state suddenly relaxed, and everyone turned their heads to look at a master and a servant walking down the stairs.

The young man in red was supported, coughing uncontrollably, and the white gauze curtain was like a windbreak barrier, making one feel that he could not even withstand the breeze.

The tenth prince originally spat, but when he saw the face of the young man in Tsing Yi, his expression suddenly changed.

"Sheng Yun? Why are you here? If you are here, then..."

He looked at the young man in red under the white gauze as if he had seen a ghost, and tightened his neck like a quail, very well-behaved.

Zhong Lan keenly sensed something was wrong, frowned and turned to look at the young man in red.
