Lie also fell silent.
We were observing each other in silence, but I felt inexplicably defensive about him.
This feeling made me uncomfortable, so I took the initiative to break the silence: "Brother Tu is also from Qin."
Tu Lie nodded and said calmly: "I am the swordsman of Qin Palace, and I was ordered to come to protect the princess."
"Oh, Brother Tu's swordsmanship must be extraordinary."
Tu Lie smiled and said: "It's not bad.
I heard that Mr.
Lu defeated Ji Ting with one move.
Is this true?"
I nodded.
Tu Lie said: "Ji Ting is a pustule.
It is normal for Mr.
Lu to defeat him."
Damn it, I thought he was going to compliment me, but I didn't expect him to say these words.
Judging from his tone, his swordsmanship must be very superb, otherwise he wouldn't dare to be so confident.
The carriage stopped slowly, and Tulie jumped out of the carriage first.
I then walked down, only to find that we came to the front of a magnificent house.
In front of the marble gate, there were two huge stone lions, which looked extraordinary.
The two words "Feng Yuan" were engraved in seal script on the door of the mansion.
I stood in front of the door and stared at these two words for a long time, not knowing what they meant.
With deep doubts, I walked into the house and walked around the screen wall.
There was a square pool in front of me, with colorful fish swimming back and forth in it.
I walked along the path around the pool to the rear courtyard.
I didn't see much vegetation along the way, and there were many sculptures arranged throughout the courtyard.
The architectural style is rough and uses mostly stone, which is very different from the common buildings in Chu State.
When I walked into the square gate of the rear courtyard, I saw a lush forest.
I have been here for a long time in spring and autumn.
I have seen many courtyards, but I have never seen this kind of courtyard full of trees.
I felt secretly strangeness.
Tulie had stopped.
I followed his gaze and looked forward, only to see a girl in the woods, dressed in white as snow, standing there quietly, waiting for me to arrive.
Who else could be better than Ying Lian?
Ying Lian looked at me, with a faint smile on her pretty face.
It seemed that the death of King Chu Zhao had not affected her mood: "Young Master Lu, you are well."
"There's nothing special.
It's just very boring.
I'm always thinking about winning the pity girl.
I finally got what I wanted today."
I said with a pun.
Ying Lian smiled slightly: "I'm afraid Mr.
Lu is thinking about your mother."
I smiled slyly and said, "I think about both, but the two thoughts are different."
No matter how generous Ying Lian is, she can't help but blush at my explicit words: "You are really not upright.
If you talk like this again, I won't help you."
I smiled to myself, I was being led by her, and I deliberately used this method to stimulate her.

The look of Ying Lian but not angry but slightly angry is very touching.
After all, these princesses all have excellent genes.
Everyone is so beautiful.
I don’t know if it’s because of the wolf’s notes, but my desire for beautiful women is stronger now than before.
Perhaps because this is spring and autumn, polygamy is normal.
At least there is no moral condemnation like in modern society.
When Ying Lian saw me remaining silent, she thought I was really afraid of her, so she proudly lectured me: "As a man, you still need to understand basic etiquette."
I smiled and said, "If a gentleman faced a beautiful woman like you and another ugly woman, would he have the same feeling in his eyes?
Would he rather look at the ugly woman a few more times?
without looking at you" Ying Lian's lips curled up slightly and she said, "A gentleman naturally knows how to control himself."
I laughed and said: "A gentleman only controls on the surface, but there is no guarantee that he will not think about it in his heart.
I will say whatever I think.
This is frankness.
This is the behavior of a true gentleman."
Ying Lian couldn't help showing a helpless smile: "I can't argue with you.
During this period, I have been with my great-aunt all the time.
So I can't come out of the palace.
I came here today to ask you to wait patiently, maybe until King Hui ascends the throne.
Only then can I help you rescue your mother."
I said in shock: "So, wouldn't my mother have to suffer more torture in prison?"
"So what" Ying Lian wrote lightly.
I was furious: "Are you mistaken?
That is my mother.
Seeing her suffering in prison, how can I, a son, be indifferent?
She has been in prison for a long time.
If I ignore her, Am I still worthy of being her son?"
Ying Lian said: "She is your mother, what does it have to do with me?
The reason why I helped you is because I agreed to sister Yaoyao.
In my eyes, she is nothing."
I was irritated by Ying Lian's indifference and grabbed her arm: "Ying Lian, please remember, you are not allowed to insult my mother, you will never allow it."
Ying Lian's beautiful eyes looked at me without fear: "Let me go, otherwise I will never help you again."
I bit my lip hard.
If it weren't for Lu Yihong, I would definitely walk away and never pay attention to this proud princess of Qin again.
Ying Lian seemed to think that the stimulation he gave me was not enough, so he pressed forward step by step: "Did you hear what I said?"
I nodded heavily, slowly let go of her arm, suppressing the anger in my heart and said, "As long as you save my mother, I will agree to whatever conditions you put forward."
Ying Lian suddenly laughed.
Her smile was so pure and innocent: "I'm joking with you, do you take it seriously?"
I looked at her blankly.
This little girl was far more scheming than I imagined.
I didn't know for a moment which of her words were true and which were false.
Ying Lian said softly: "Who told you to say those bastard words just now?
I should have just taught you a lesson."
I can only smile bitterly.
Ying Lian's voice became much gentler: "Hey, do you want to see your mother?"
I was dubious and said: "Can it be done?"

"Although it's a bit difficult, I plan to give it a try."
Ying Lian's eyes were full of confidence.
Only then did I understand her real purpose of looking for me today: "Thank you very much" The Iron-Blooded Prison is located on the wasteland twenty miles north of Yingdu.
It is surrounded by water and heavily guarded as Kaolie and the others said.
Yinglian said softly: "The Iron-Blooded Prison was built during the reign of King Ping.
The Mekong River flows through it on three sides, and the Qian River flows through it on the north.
Most of the people imprisoned here are felons from the Chu State.
Now there are 37 soldiers in charge of guarding, but there are 600 people. " I took a breath of air: "What an exaggeration."
"It's not an exaggeration, it's because the identities of these prisoners are extremely special.
They include powerful officials from the royal family of Chu State, as well as homeless nobles from other countries.
If any one of them escapes, it will create a huge storm."
I thought to myself: "Lu Yihong came to rescue Ji Mu.
Since Ji Mu can be imprisoned in the Iron Blood Prison, it shows that his status is extraordinary.
I don't have much idea about Huo Guo.
From Ying Lian to me Ask about it later However, we only know that Huo is a small country between Qin, Jin and Rongdi, and it is said that it is also a descendant of the Zhou family.
If Lu Xiaogui is really the son of him and Lu Yihong, by calculation, Lu Xiaogui can be counted.
It’s of royal blood.”
Ying Lian handed me a bronze mask: "When we enter the Iron Blood Prison, you will never speak without my consent."
I nodded and said, "As long as I can see my mother, I will promise you anything."
Ying Lian smiled and said: "When you speak, you must consider the consequences.
If I put forward any excessive conditions, I'm afraid you will regret it or even harm me."
I shook my head and said, "Definitely not."
Tulie's voice came from the front: "Princess, we're here."
The carriage slowly stopped.
Ying Lian picked up the black coat and put it on her body.
She motioned for me to put on the bronze mask.
Putting on another piece of clothing, he opened the car door and walked out.
The bronze mask was extremely cold against the skin of my face.
Looking through the mask, I saw that the suspension bridge leading to the Iron-Blooded Prison had slowly lowered.
A general in bronze armor led twenty soldiers across the suspension bridge.
Coming towards us.
Ying Lian's beautiful eyes revealed a look of arrogance and indifference, and she raised the gold-encrusted jade pendant in her hand.
The general and his men hurriedly knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, Qianghai, come to see you."
This jade pendant is the talisman of the King of Chu.
Seeing the jade pendant waiting for the King of Chu to come in person, that's why the Chu army soldiers showed such respect.
The general kowtowed three times and then said: "Your Highness Princess Changping, I don't know what you have come to do today."
Ying Lian said calmly: "I followed the Queen Mother's order and came here to visit the two prisoners."
"Princess please" The general obediently led the way.
It seemed that the deterrent effect of the jade pendant was really great.
He didn't even ask about my identity.
Together with Ying Lian, I followed the general into the Iron-Blooded Prison.
We walked across the suspension bridge and entered the high wall.
An extremely depressing atmosphere came to us, but we saw that the high wall was full of people.
The three walls are all over five feet tall.
Fifty well-equipped archers are standing guard on each high wall.

Let alone a person trying to escape from inside, even a bird will find it difficult to fly out.
Go past the last wall.
But I saw a line of stairs extending underground.
It turned out that the entire iron-blooded prison was built underground.
Ying Lian threw down the dagger he carried with him, and I also threw the weapon on my waist to the ground.
Qiang Hai smiled and said: "Why is Princess Changping like this?
Of course we can trust her."
Ying Lian said coldly: "Of course the rules must be followed.
If everyone breaks the rules, there will be no need for this iron-blooded prison to exist."
Qiang Hai laughed twice and continued to lead the way forward.
After entering the underground passage, his eyes suddenly became dark.
A damp musty smell rushed towards him, and the turbid air was almost suffocating.
My eyes quickly adapted to the dim surroundings.
There were oil lamps at regular intervals on the wall.
With the help of weak light, we passed through a passage that was about fifty meters long.
There were six soldiers guarding the entrance to the lower level.
There were two windlass beside them.
I immediately understood that this was a primitive elevator.
Qianghai made a gesture, and six guards prepared two hanging baskets.
Qianghai walked into one of them, and Yinglian and I entered the other hanging basket.
Under the control of the six soldiers, the hanging basket dropped vertically. , about ten meters before landing on the flat ground.
Eight soldiers holding torches came forward to help us get out of the hanging basket.
Qianghai stopped here, and another general took Yinglian and I to a cell.
The heavy door was slowly opened, and Ying Lian and I walked in.
The general said: "One stick of incense time."
He handed the lantern in his hand to Ying Lian and turned around to go out.
With the faint light of the lantern, I saw a long-haired man lying on the stone bed indoors.
Because his body was facing away from me, the outline of his face on the ground could not be clearly seen.
But I can conclude that this is definitely not Lu Yihong.
I secretly wonder why Ying Lian didn't take me to see Lu Yihong first and instead came to visit this man.
Could it be that he is Ji Mu?
Ying Lian hung the lantern on the wall and said softly: "King of Northern Desert, I brought your relatives over to see you."
The man sneered: "Princess Changping, what are you doing?"
He sat up slowly, and his pale face could be seen under the light.
I was surprised to find that his appearance was sixty-nine similar to mine.
His hair was disheveled, his temples were gray, his beard was long, and he stared at me with a pair of deep eyes.
Because I was wearing a mask, he couldn't see my appearance clearly and said coldly: "Who is he and what method did you come up with to threaten me?"
From now on, I have realized that winning pity is not that simple.
She must be using me.
If this man is really Ji Mu, wouldn't she want to use me to threaten him?
This matter is far more complicated.
Ying Lian's scheming was beyond my imagination and far more complicated than I knew.
She gently held my arm: "Take off the mask and let him see what you look like."
When I was thinking about what decision I should make, I suddenly felt a stab of pain in my arm.
I subconsciously shook off Yinglian's delicate hand and looked at her with astonishment.

I saw that Yinglian's beautiful eyes contained extremely complicated things. eyes.
"You" A feeling of numbness quickly spread from my arms to my whole body.
Before I could say the following words, the world in front of my eyes was spinning, and my body that lost control in an instant fell limply to the ground.
A voice echoed in my mind: " You little bitch, how dare you harm me”:
