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

"Your Majesty, here comes the sweet wine you asked for."

Zhong Lan quickly crumpled the note into a ball and pressed it in his palm, then turned his head quickly: "Put it there."

During lunch, Zhong Lan "accidentally" overturned the thick eel soup, soiling his clothes and half of his calf, and excused himself to take a bath.Taking advantage of this opportunity, he let the thin and small piece of rice paper melt into hot water to destroy the corpse.

Wen Yao's voice came from outside the room.

"Your Majesty, I occasionally have something to do not accompany you to have lunch, and you find an excuse to delay?"

Zhong Lan sank himself into the bathtub at once, only showing his eyes reddened by the heat, his long hair scattered on the water surface, entangled with the petals: "Don't come in. I'll finish washing and get out immediately."

Smiling as he approached.Wen Yao closed the door and hung his coat on the hanger: "No rush."

"I'm in a hurry!" Zhong Lan shrank into a ball, trying to escape from Wen Yao's sight with his skin, "Don't come in!"

"I originally wanted to come here to tell His Majesty that I have already handled half of the memorials for you today, so I had an extra half hour lunch break." Wen Yao stood far away, "Forget it, Your Majesty doesn't want to hear it either."

"..." Zhong Lang spat out a string of bubbles underwater, and succeeded in being threatened.

Wen Yao wrapped a bath towel around his waist and sat on the wooden steps beside the bathtub.The good-looking hands reached into the hot water, passed under Zhong Lan's arms, and hugged him up.Zhong Lan turned his back to him in embarrassment.Wen Yao rubbed and massaged his hands vigorously from the neck to the arms.

The shoulder and neck muscles were obviously stiffer than the previous days. Wen Yao's eyes flashed slightly, and his hand movements were more delicate, and soon the muscles on the back of the neck were pressed tenderly, and even Zhong Lan couldn't help but sigh comfortably.

"In the past few days, you should sit on the cushion and handle government affairs." Wen Yao whispered in his ear, "If you are tired, ask the eunuch to tap your arm."

Zhong Lan suddenly woke up.When Wen Yao became tender, he felt a little strange.He responded dryly, "Okay."

Wen Yao continued to massage his shoulders and back seriously.Zhong Lan's body is well-proportioned, with slender and powerful muscles attached to the bones, thin and smooth under the skin.The skin and flesh are flushed in the heat, like a demon fruit.

"Wen Yao, that..."

"Ok?"

The side of Zhong Lan's face was also flushed, and he suddenly grabbed Wen Yao's hand, and weakly put that hand aside: "The leg is no longer needed."

Wen Yao was slightly taken aback, his eyes fell on a certain place underwater, he suddenly woke up, and leaned into his ear meaningfully: "Let me help His Majesty deal with it."

Zhong Lan's face was so red that it was almost purple, he didn't speak, he closed his eyes and acquiesced to the massage worker's efforts.

After soaking in this bath for the whole noon, Zhong Lan's face was still flushed when he returned to the house, probably because he was soaked in hot water for too long and was sleepy.

After a comfortable sleep, I woke up to find that the sun had already moved to the west.Wu Yong called him softly at the bedside, saying that if he didn't wake up, he couldn't deal with it.

Today, that torture device is gone.Zhong Lan sat comfortably in the upholstered armchair: "Why did Wen Yao lose his temper today?"

Wu Yong: "You had a stiff neck this morning, and your head was tilted for a long time. You felt uncomfortable. His Highness was inspecting the army, but when he heard the news, he dropped what he was doing and rushed back. When he just returned to the palace, his expression was horrific. I lost that chair when I was there. I'm glad you're all right."

"It's just a stiff neck."

Wu Yong: "Fortunately, it's just a stiff neck. If you have a serious illness somewhere, or disappear, what can your Highness do?"

All the words were swallowed back by Zhong Lan.The previous note appeared in his mind, he pursed his lips tightly, and said nothing more.Wu Yong brought him a large stack of memorials, polished the ink and laid the paper.

Zhong Lan leaned on the writing brush for a long time, squinting his eyes: "I'm not feeling well today. Since that's the case, today's government affairs..."

"Your Highness said, everything is business as usual," Wu Yong smiled standardly, "If the memorial is not approved when you come back at night, then you can order another set of devices."

Zhong Lan: "..."

Animals!

October seventeenth is coming soon.

Zhong Lang was very calm. If he could escape from the palace in his current situation, he would naturally not need to negotiate with anyone.Since the other party has made an appointment with him at the Flower Banquet House, they will naturally help him escape.

The first notice was the medicine at noon the day before.

Zhong Lan picked up the medicine bowl and noticed the smell was wrong before he took the first sip.He asked Wu Yong to come over and asked him if the medicine had been changed.

Wu Yong thought that he was looking for a reason not to drink it, so he hurriedly said, "This medicine is absolutely right. Three palace servants transferred from different palaces stared at the torment together, and there is no way that you will be less addicted. Don't worry about it, you There is absolutely no chance to exchange medicinal materials!"

Zhong Lan: "..."

I didn't even want to switch.

But this also made his heart skip a beat, and he obediently drank the potion, which had a significantly lighter smell.Sure enough, the effect of the medicine gradually faded in the afternoon, and the strength of hands and feet returned to the normal level at night.

In the past few days, Wen Yao saw that Zhong Lan's dark circles were getting deeper and deeper, so he didn't bother him at night and let him sleep alone.Just after the ugly hour, Zhong Lan stood up.There are untimely cuckoo calls outside the window, and the bright moon is still hanging in the white sky, like water spilling into the room.

The door opened, and all the guards outside fell down, and a man in gray robes walked into the room.The gray-robed men who were left before had been silent, living in the palace, and the palace people were also in awe, which also made it easier for them to succeed.

Zhong Lan changed into the gray-robed man's robe, obediently followed them and sneaked out of the palace.The carriage crossed the street in the morning shouts and stopped at the back door of Huayan Building.

The hangover Yingying Yanyan and the playboy still haven't woken up, and there are also jokes upstairs.The man in gray robe led him to the box on the top floor.

A man in a blue gown, meticulous and stern, turned his head and said, "Mr. Xin, please come in."

In the room, a group of men who obviously dressed differently from Nanqiong stood solemnly on both sides, majestic and terrifying.

"My name is Li Hong, and I am the leader of Yan's hidden guards. This time, I was entrusted by Yan to cooperate with Xin." The man didn't even stand up, and pointed to the opposite side with his chin, "Please take a seat."

Zhong Lan raised his eyebrows, but did not attack: "What's the matter?"

"Recently, the frequency of purchasing certain kinds of medicinal materials in the palace has become extremely high. It is inferred that Xin Guojun may be under the control of drugs. Therefore, I deliberately contacted the trading company and changed the grades of certain medicinal materials purchased. Although I have no power to intervene in the affairs of the palace, I can It can reduce the potency of the medicine a lot." Li Hong sneered calmly and said casually, "He regards you as the king of a country, but doesn't even give you personal freedom, don't you hate it?"

Zhong Lan lowered his eyes, his eyelashes covered his eyes, and he seemed to be thinking carefully.

Li Hong looked at his face and snorted disdainfully.

The rumors about the ruler of the world released by the men in gray robes are fake news under their instruction.He heard that Xin Guojun was very skilled, but he didn't take it seriously. There are too many masters around him. How can anyone spend so many years without losing their skills?

The so-called Xin Guojun is nothing more than a name that is useful to them now.

"As long as you cooperate with us and stir up civil strife in Nanxin, the Kingdom of Yan can help you regain power." Li Hong said condescendingly, "Afterwards, the Kingdom of Xin will become an independent country under the protection of the Kingdom of Yan, and will no longer be held hostage by Wen Yao. and insult, isn't that good?"

Zhong Lan raised his head and pretended not to understand: "But won't he be held hostage by the Yan State again? I need to bow down to Lord Yan, right?"

"Yan Guojun can give you a lot that Wen Yao can't give."

"for example?"

"He can let you manage your own country. He can give you freedom! He will not treat you as an object to show power. You can affix your own seal on the memorials of your own country at will!" Li Hong sneered, Thinking that no one would be a puppet, his expression was exaggerated and provocative, "Isn't freedom enough? Don't you think it's an insult to have your seal in someone else's hands?"

Suddenly, Zhong Lan laughed lightly.

Li Hong looked serious: "What are you laughing at?"

The masters in the room were also very nervous, and two of them even drew their swords.

"If King Yan can let me not have to stamp my memorial, I can still think about it." Zhong Lan half-closed his eyes and lazily propped his chin, "Do you still need the freedom to stamp?"

Li Hong's face suddenly changed: "Are you refusing?"

The master's swords were all unsheathed, and the two blades pressed onto Zhong Lan's shoulders.The potency of the medicine only weakened, not completely disappeared.No matter how strong Zhong Lan used to be, now he is just an ordinary person.

Suddenly, they seemed to see a gust of wind passing by - no one saw how those swords were thrown into the air!

Swords and swords, the harsh collision of metal followed by screams.

Li Hong's pupils constricted: "You, you..."

There was no one standing around.Zhong Lang stood in the center, and Li Hong tripped to the ground in fright, propped himself up, and raised his head in fright.

Zhong Lan's tone became more and more angry, as if thinking of the past few days, he found someone to vent his anger on, and approached Li Hong with a grinning grin: "Give me the power to manage? What a gift this is! How superior!"

He casually pulled out a sword from a fallen guard, and pressed it on Li Hong's neck three or two times: "Why do you think I cooperate with you to leave the palace?"

Li Hong was petrified, subconsciously cooperated: "Why?"

"Isn't it because I don't want to care about it anymore?" Zhong Lang raised the corner of his mouth, "Use your strength to escape from the palace, so that we can die."

Pop, pop, pop.

An extremely loud applause came from the next door.Suddenly, a wall of the private room rose slowly——these two rooms could be communicated with each other!

"It turns out that His Majesty's idea is to escape by death. Gu knows."

Zhong Lan's breathing was stagnant, and he slowly raised his head.

The room next door was actually full of ferocious masters from the very beginning.They waited for this moment with bated breath, listening to all the conversation just now.

The dark red and gilded robe was dragged to the floor, Yan Gui was leaning on the couch coldly and lazily, with a touch of suppressed anger red at the end of his eyes, accompanied by the almost twisted and weird smile in his voice, it stirred up Zhong Lan's hairs .

Wen Yao ignored the pained and distorted guards all over the floor and the stunned Li Hong, with his eyes half drooping, and his tone was friendly but strange.

"Your Majesty, hurry up and pack up the people here, and you have to go back to deal with government affairs with me. Otherwise, you may not have time to leave the study before dawn tomorrow."
