The best ring

The wedding party encountered a series of misfortunes in Fengliang City. Shao Haogang not only lost his own men, but also the eunuchs and palace maids, and also lost the air messenger. Therefore, shortly after arriving in Fengliang City, Shao Haogang had lost contact with Yanyang City. The information the old emperor knew now was all before the wedding party arrived in Fengliang City.

In the letter, Shao Haogang mentioned that they were ambushed on the way, but someone secretly helped them to escape and severely damaged the enemy.

The identity of this enemy, Shao Haogang guessed in the letter, might be someone from Shuiyue Country.

In fact, even if Shao Haogang didn't say it, the first thing the old emperor thought of was Shuiyue Country.

Once the marriage between Yanfeng Country and Tianji Country is successful, what kind of consequences will it have? Shuiyue Country can't be unaware of it. Therefore, it is not surprising that people from Shuiyue Country would ambush the wedding party. Of course, there must be anger. After all, that is the old emperor's most beloved princess.

However, the old emperor could not guess the identity of the person who secretly protected Zhao Qi. In addition to sending Shao Haogang and his imperial guards, the old emperor did not send anyone else to protect Zhao Qi. It was not that the old emperor did not value Zhao Qi, but he thought that the protection of the imperial guards was enough. After all, from their Yanfeng country to Tianji country, they only passed through Xiufeng country, and Xiufeng country would never dare to attack their team.

"Who is this person who secretly protects Qi'er? Which force is it? Why don't they reveal their identity?" The old emperor was curious.

At this time, a eunuch came to report that there was news about the wedding team.

"Bring it in." The old emperor said in a deep voice.

He knew that although the people of Shuiyue country failed once, they would not give up easily. Therefore, the old emperor has always been very concerned about the news of the wedding team, not only because it involves his most beloved daughter, but also about the alliance between the two countries, which is related to the future of their Yanfeng country.

Soon, a eunuch brought in a letter. What surprised the old emperor was that the information about the wedding procession was not sent back by Shao Haogang, but by someone else.

After reading the contents of the letter, the old emperor's face instantly became gloomier.

Bang!

The old emperor hammered the table hard, full of momentum.

"Cough cough." A violent cough came.

The old emperor's health was not good to begin with, and now because of his anger, his body was churning, his face was red, and then white, and his breathing was a little faster.

Reaching out to stop the eunuch who came, the old emperor had a gloomy face and read the contents of the letter again. This time, he did not get angry again, but his face was still very ugly.

The news was sent back by spies who were monitoring other countries. A big country like Yanfeng has spies in various countries. These spies are always spying on the news, filtering the information they get, and then sending useful information back to the country.

And the letter in the old emperor's hand was sent back by the spy.

What made the old emperor angry was the content of the letter.

According to the letter, the wedding procession was attacked soon after entering Fengliang City. The team was almost wiped out. Only the Seventh Princess, Shao Haogang and a close maid of the Seventh Princess escaped from Fengliang City with the help of a mysterious person.

The people who attacked the wedding procession were the coalition forces of Shuiyue Country and Xiufeng Country.

After the Seventh Princess escaped from Fengliang City, the people of Shuiyue Country also chased her out. As for Xiufeng Country, because their emperor was suddenly killed, they were busy with domestic affairs and did not seem to chase the Seventh Princess. Of course, the spy was not sure whether they really did not chase her.

"Xiufeng Country, what a Xiufeng Country!" The old emperor muttered to himself, and murderous aura had filled his entire face. Even though he was old and in poor health, when he was angry, he was still like a tiger.

Originally, the old emperor was very confident that the people of Xiufeng would not dare to attack the wedding party. After all, Xiufeng was not as strong as Yanfeng. Even if Yanfeng was not at its peak, it was not comparable to a small Xiufeng.

Moreover, Xiufeng was close to Yanfeng, not as far away from Yanfeng as Shuiyue. So, if Xiufeng really provoked them, they could send troops to attack them at any time, which was convenient and without too many scruples.

It was because of this that the old emperor thought that Xiufeng would not dare to play tricks, but he did not expect that the emperor of Xiufeng was so bold that he dared to join forces with Shuiyue to surround and kill the wedding party.

The old emperor had decided that once the alliance with Tianji was settled, he would not rush to target Shuiyue. He would first send troops to attack Xiufeng and destroy this small Xiufeng.

In the letter, it was also mentioned that Xiufeng deliberately released news, saying that they were forced by Shuiyue to make such a decision.

However, the old emperor sneered at this. No matter what the reason was, if he dared to attack the wedding procession of Yanfeng Country, he should be prepared to bear the wrath of Yanfeng Country.

"But who is this mysterious man? Is he the same group of people as the secret force mentioned in Shao Haogang's previous letter?" The old emperor muttered while holding the letter.

In this letter, the mysterious man was emphasized. Zhao Qi and Shao Haogang had been surrounded originally. It was the appearance of the mysterious man that rescued Zhao Qi and the other two. It can be said that without the mysterious man, Zhao Qi would have been killed. It is impossible for Qi and the others to escape from Fengliang City.

However, the spy did not know the identity of this person. Although he also inquired, he did not get any useful information. But one thing is certain, this person is very familiar with Zhao Qi.

"I know Qier very well, who could she be?" The old emperor said to himself: "Qier has lived in the palace since she was a child. Only in recent times, she occasionally leaves the palace. However, she has never met anyone outside the palace. What special person? Who is this person who saves her? "

The old emperor was very curious about the person who saved his daughter, but he couldn't figure out who he was.

"That's not right!" The old emperor suddenly straightened his face and said to himself, "Qier went out of Yanyang City to see him before!"

Thinking of this, the old emperor's face became complicated, and he murmured to himself: "Could it be him? But how could he appear in Xiufeng Country? Could it be that he has been secretly escorting Qier? But he How do you save Qier again and again?”

The "he" in the old emperor's mouth was naturally Wu Fan.
