When Wei Lian returned to the inn, the door was closed. Ji Yue was leaning against the head of the bed and pulling the phalaenopsis petals in pieces, and muttering boredly: "He is back soon, he is back soon, he is back soon, he is back soon, he is back soon..." The last petal was an even number. Ji Yue paused for a moment, crushed the petals into powder with internal force, and thought that the petal did not exist, and then said with satisfaction, "He is back soon."

Wei Lian: "..."

Ji Yue was having fun alone.

Wei Lian pushed the door and walked into the room. When Ji Yue heard the movement, he immediately threw away the bare branches in his hand, turned around and said happily: "I knew you were back now."

Wei Lian looked down at the petals falling all over the ground, just like a butterfly stopping on the ground, thinking you know a ghost.

"How do you toss the flowers like this?" Wei Lian hugged his arms, "Isn't this for me?"

Ji Yue felt a little guilty: "...it's too boring."

He was not suitable for going out in the Liang Kingdom Royal City. Wei Lian was a young man from Chu who had no real power. Even if he was learned about appearing in Liang Kingdom, it would not be a big deal. Ji Yue was different. He was the King of Qin. Once he was exposed, he was in other people's territory without military protection. He was afraid that he would not be able to leave Liang Kingdom alive.

——This is the best time to strangle the King of Qin.

No matter how powerful Ji Yue is, he cannot resist thousands of troops. He cannot make any mistakes before killing the curse. For the sake of life safety, he has not been out much these days.

He was stuck in the house all day long, and Wei Lian was not here, so he was naturally idle. Ji Yue could feel a little bit of Wei Lian's feelings before. Perhaps in the Qin Palace, when he was busy with government affairs, Wei Lian was so bored in Zhongling Palace.

At that time, Wei Lian was always waiting for him.

He remembered discussing an important matter with the minister for three days. On the fourth night, he went to Zhongling Palace. After the bed was closed, Wei hugged him quietly and said lazily: "You are here. If you don't come, I will grow mushrooms."

Ji Yue touched his hair: "Why don't you find something to do to pass the time?"

"I have done all those things. I even know how many bricks and stones there are in Zhongling Palace, but I just don't count how many leaves there are on the tree."

"So hard to endure?"

"Not." Wei Lian found a comfortable position and lay in his arms, "I just wanted to see you very much."

They are not people who can't leave each other without even care about everything, otherwise there would be no peace and separation for a month. It's just that missing this kind of emotion is always difficult to control.

Wei Lian went out to inquire about the situation. It sounded light, but in fact it was full of dangers. It was just that the hidden crises were resolved by him with wisdom and force. Ji Yue knew that he was very capable, but he had to worry.

"I came back so early." Ji Yue said, "It seems that I have gained something."

"Indeed, it's easier than I thought." Wei Lian sat down, "You're right. Never underestimate a person's concern for his lover."

Aslan is not a person who trusts others easily, but Melna may have had an experience that has completely disintegrated his heart and caused him to feel extremely painful and blame himself, which makes him feel heart-warming about Wei Lian, an old friend who is not very familiar.

"All the evidence points to that national witch." Wei Lian said, "Lin Yan'er is the former saint of Liang State, and it is also suitable from time to time. She is exactly the one from seven years ago..."

He briefly described Aslan's words and finally said: "The eighth day of the lunar month is the Flower God Festival. I asked Aslan that the witches of the kingdom would sit in the float that day, and there were heavy troops guarding them. Aslan would cooperate with us to replace the guards with his confidant, and would not try his best to stop us from assassinating."

Ji Yue thought for a moment: "Since the national witch has such great ability, can she really kill it easily?"

"We must always try it." Wei Lian said, "but no matter whether the assassination is successful or failed, it will inevitably alarm the enemy. At that time, Liang State will definitely increase its efforts to investigate people from a foreign land. We are weak and need a way to escape."

"I'm prepared for it." Ji Yue said, "Since you dare to come to Liang State, you must make a complete plan. The man who gave the curse has great skills. I had previously guessed that he was a person with high power and might cause trouble if he killed him. Before leaving Jiangzhou, he asked Zhou Mingli to bring a secret order back to Yongping to Xie Chen, and ordered him to start attacking the border of Liang State within three months. Liang State will definitely draw troops from the royal city to block it. At that time, the royal city will be like an empty city, allowing us to come and go freely. Now, the Qin army has probably reached the border of Liang State."

Wei Lian was not surprised by Ji Yue's arrangement. It should be said that as a king who is good at planning, Ji Yue was surprised to have not considered this.

He smiled faintly: "It is indeed easy to escape if you lure your tiger away from the mountain..."

"Who said he wanted to escape?" Ji Yue smiled, "It's not like taking an empty city to steal it? Besides, the divine power of the Liang Kingdom is supreme. Their national witches died, as if their faith collapsed, and the morale of the army would be disintegrated. How can we fight with our Qin army?"

"The Lonely will make people know that their gods cannot bless them." Ji Yue's eyes ignited the depth and coldness of the ambitious family. "If the Liang people dare to hurt the people of Qin and curse me, the Qin monarch, how could I have only one person's life?"

"From the beginning, what I wanted was not just the blood debt of the man who wrote the curse." Ji Yue curled his lips without emotion, "What I wanted was the entire Liang Kingdom."

-

Wei Lian held his chin with one hand and listened quietly to him.

When Ji Yue looked over, his eyes were still calm, with a look of "continue".

"..." Ji Yue withdrew the burning flames in his eyes and coughed lightly, "Did I scare you?"

Wei Lian changed to holding his cheek with both hands: "In your eyes, am I so scared?"

This was even within his expectations.

The State of Chen has been destroyed, and the war has already begun. The cavalry of Qin will surely travel across the entire continent. Even Wei Lian has already made arrangements, let alone Ji Yue.

It's all a matter of time sooner or later.

Since Liang State has arrived, I might as well catch them all in one go, which is very consistent with Ji Yue's style of conduct.

"The foolish one beats the bird, the mediocre one kills one bird, and the wise one kills two birds. As for you," Wei Lian curled his lips, "What you want is not a bird, you want the sky to collapse."

Ji Yue smiled and said, "There is no better person to know me than the young master."

-

On the eighth day of the eighth month, the Flower God Festival is here.

The entire royal city has become a sea of ​​flowers, with colorful flowers decorated under the eaves in front of the window. The girls put the flowers in their braids, put them on their temples, and pin them on their chests, and one person is more beautiful than the flowers. They crawled out of the bed early, surrounded on both sides of the wide street, waiting for the float to pass by, preparing to compete for the flowers that symbolize good luck.

There are long ropes on both sides of the street, dividing the crowd into two long dragons. A naughty child crawled out from under the rope and ran to the center of the empty street, and was immediately carried back by the child's mother: "The float will pass here later! Don't run around!"

Ji Yue and Wei Lian hid in the crowd, waiting for the national witch to appear.

They are all dressed as Liang people, and they don’t even look at each other when wearing masks on their faces. The Flower God Festival is a major festival in the Liang Kingdom. Many girls cover their faces with veils and young men cover their faces with masks. It is said that this is also a certain custom.

Wei Lian turned the silver bracelet on his wrist quietly and whispered: "Aslan said that the national witch was on the third float, and the first two were from the Holy Son and the Holy Maiden. Later, the national witch appeared, and I will use a hidden weapon to do it first. If I can't kill it with one blow, then we will get on together."

Ji Yue nodded.

The weather was clear today. They waited for about half an hour under the scorching sun. Finally, they heard a burst of music, and a gorgeous convoy slowly came into view.

The first one was two white horses without any color, the musicians were walking and blowing, and then a team of fully armed guards. Then there was the first float, with the Holy Son Aslan sitting inside.

After the first float, the flower girls standing on the flower platform with flower baskets and constantly scattering flowers on both sides of the road. These children are candidates for the next Saint Son and Saint.

The flowers are full of colorful rain, pink, red, purple, yellow... everything is available, but there are no white flowers.

White flowers are very unlucky in Liang State and can only be used at funerals.

The people on both sides became excited in an instant and stretched out to pick up the falling flowers.

After that, there was Saint Melna sitting on the second float.

The float is open and everyone can see the face of the Saint. Melna is dressed in a Saint dress, wearing a veil, and only reveals her beautiful eyes, which is attracting the attention of everyone.

Wei Lian and Ji Yue were waiting for the third float to approach.

Wei Lian pulled the mechanism on the silver bracelet, and four silver needles were quietly clamped between his fingers.

Ji Yue seemed to accidentally fiddle with his belt. The short knife placed on his waist was in a telescopic mode, which could turn into a long sword at any time when needed.

Finally, the third float appeared.

The witch did not cover her face.

It was a beautiful woman dressed up in a gorgeous dress.

She sat upright on the float, with her hands folded and placed on her knees, her long skirt covered her feet, and her face was elegant and luxurious. Her beautiful face and calm eyes were not like all in the mortal world, and the beauty of a fairy was like a god descending.

Let Ji Yue evaluate it without personal emotional color: it is better than Gu, and it is better than A Lian.

Princess Chonghua, the first beauty who had become a red pink skeleton, probably looks a little better than that.

Wei Lian's fingertips moved slightly, and was about to take action, but a sudden change occurred—

On the other side of the crowd, a woman in purple in a masked face suddenly flew up, holding a soft whip in her hand, and headed straight for the third float: "It's you!"

The national witch's expression had not changed, and she did not give her a single look.

Wei Lian paused for a moment and took back the silver needle in his hand: "It's Lin Yan'er."

He is not sure about the skills of this national witch at the moment, so it is better to let Lin Yan'er find out the details.

The soldiers quickly issued an order: "Protect the Kingdom Wu!"

Lin Yan'er sneered, waved her sleeves and sprinkled a handful of poison powder, which instantly made the soldiers around the float have to lower their bodies and cover their mouths and cough. She accidentally dealt with these people and headed straight to the woman in the car.

"It's you who made me become like this!" Lin Yan'er waved over with a whip. The witch raised her eyes calmly and said something in her mouth. Lin Yan'er was like encountering an invisible barrier. Before she got close, she was knocked away and was about to fall into the open space in front of her.

Wei Lian: "...It seems that she can't find out the details."

The strength is huge, the gap is too big.

"She should have recited the curse." Ji Yue's observation skills were keen, "She moved her mouth just now."

"Yan'er!" At the critical moment, Xiao Wen immediately appeared, caught Lin Yan'er falling from the air and landed on the ground.

Lin Yan'er fell into Xiao Wen's arms and fainted.

"Yan'er! Yan'er!" Xiao Wen shouted twice and looked up with anger, "What did you do to her!"

Chongguan was angry and was furious for the beauty. Xiao Wen was angry and drew his sword and flew towards the national witch.

If you want to get close to the national witch, you have to pass Aslan's level first. But Aslan just hesitated for a moment and pretended not to react and did not move.

Melna stared at the woman who was fainting on the ground and was stunned: "I think she looks so familiar..."

Xiao Wenchang stepped on the roofs of the two floats without any obstacles and stabbed the Guowu with a knife.

In the crowd, Wei Lian whispered: "I always feel like another person is giving away his head..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Wen flew backwards and fell beside Lin Yan'er. He was so injured that he was even worse than Lin Yan'er, and even vomited blood.
To be continued...
