The guard snorted coldly with disdain: "Are you going to be rude to us? Don't even look at it. How much do you have? Let me tell you, we don't know what is good or bad, we only know how to obey General Ma. General Ma wants us to To protect the angel well and prevent accidents, we have to follow General Ma's wishes. You stay here well, and don't go anywhere without the order of General Ma!"
wolf!
The guard's face was startled, Yan Li had already drawn his sword out of its sheath, the horizontal sword was in his chest, and his gaze was suddenly serious.
"Since you know that I am an angel, you shouldn't block my way! As the swordsman, kill Wushe!"
The situation was tense, but General Ma's voice sounded from the back hall: "Oh, Lord Angel, why are you so angry? It's my fault, it's my fault!"
While talking, General Ma came out, stood beside Yan Li, and severely reprimanded the guards: "How can you use a knife on this Angel Yan? How many heads do you have? Put the knife away for me quickly! "
"Yes, General Ma!"
The guards obeyed General Ma's order and put their swords back into their sheaths.
He faced Yan Li with a smile: "I was so offended just now, I hope Angel Yan will not mention it in front of the king. I should have come out just now, but I was entangled with some things, so I was delayed for some time. I will drink a few more glasses later, It's an apology to you!"
At this time, the pawns also just brought up the wine and dishes and arranged them on the table of the Eight Immortals. General Ma took Yan Li's hand and came to the table:
"Yan Angel sit down!"
Yan Li was so anxious that he was on the verge of getting angry, so he didn't have the heart to sit down: "General Ma, it's not too late, let's go to the capital to quell the rebellion."
General Ma twitched his lips, and smiled: "No hurry, no hurry! I have just ordered the soldiers to prepare to go. But you also know that there are a total of 50,000 soldiers in this camp, so how can they just leave? There are provisions, horses, chariots, flags, armor, and weapons, all of which must be prepared. I think, after we have eaten this table, we can send troops. Please wait patiently !"
Yan Li had no choice but to sit down: "General Ma, after dinner and wine, we are really going to send troops! The capital is in danger, we can't afford to delay any longer!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" General Ma poured wine for Yan Li and picked up some food, "I, Ma, keep what I say, and besides, this is the king's business, how dare I neglect it!" He picked up a piece of braised fish and put it on Yan Li's table. From the small dish in front of him, "Master Angel, please eat the fish. Although this fish is not comparable to the fish from the Songjiang River in your Dajing Kingdom, it is also made of white sand and black water. It is extremely fat and melts in your mouth."
Yan Li tasted a piece, although it was also very plump, but compared with the fish from Dajing Kingdom, it was still delicate. However, in front of General Ma, he is not easy to belittle.
"Come on, Master Angel, drink!" General Ma picked up the wine glass again, and touched Yan Li. "This wine is specially kept by my parents. If it hadn't been for Lord Angel, I would not be willing to take it out! Hahahaha!"
It's just a joke. Yan Li ate and drank without fear of being poisoned. Because before knowing the authenticity of his identity, General Ma would not dare to poison Yan Li. If the person who really killed the king is guilty of conspiracy.
General Ma saw that Yan Li seemed to have relaxed his vigilance, with cunning and evil in his eyes.
"Yan Tiantian, when you come, don't you miss the prince?"
Why did Ma suddenly ask such a question? Or, just a random question
"I came out of the palace, when the king and the prince were together."
"Oh?" General Ma exaggeratedly agreed, "I see! I and the prince are cousins. When you came, didn't he give me any special instructions?"
Yan Li was taken aback: Why haven't I heard that the Prince and General Ma are cousins? Oh, yes, they are all surnamed Ma, they are cousins, which is actually quite normal. Originally, in this Tianchi country, the Ma family controlled the country's military, politics, and economy.
"Don't tell me, the general, I forgot! When I came, the prince asked me to bring a message, even if it was not for the community, but only for the love of my cousins. In any case, you must lead troops into Beijing to quell the rebellion and let the country go. Cousins have a reunion."
Yan Li put down his chopsticks and stood up: "General Ma, the prince and the king are looking forward to it, let's stop eating, let's go now!"
It's just that the more nervous and anxious Yan Li was, the slower General Ma was, crossing his legs and sipping the fine wine in his glass. His lips dipped lightly in the wine, as if a dragonfly had touched water, his eyes were half-closed, looking very intoxicated.
Yan Li gritted his teeth, thinking that if it wasn't for the king's face, I would have slashed through it with a single sword! After all, I am not a native of Tianchi country, so it is against etiquette for me to kill other country's generals without permission.
"General Ma..."
General Ma suddenly raised his eyes, shining brightly, with a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth: "Did the prince really tell you that?"
"Exactly! Doesn't the general believe me?" Yan Li pondered, where did his words reveal flaws
boom!
General Ma slapped the table, and widened his tiger eyes: "Who the hell are you? Who sent you here? How did you get the Tiger Talisman for Dispatch of Troops?"
A burst of chaotic footsteps resounded around Yan Li, and when he turned his head to look, he was already watched dead by a dozen guards. A handful of big knives were held above his head. As long as he moved a little bit, all the knives would fall down and chop him into meat paste.
Yan Li picked up the wine glass and took a sip as if nothing had happened, with a very relaxed and natural attitude.
"I'm asking you something, tell me quickly! Otherwise, I'll order the guards to chop you into mincemeat!" General Ma no longer smiled.
Yan Li: "Is what I said true? You can go to the capital with me and ask the prince if that's all right? We're here to argue, it's nothing more than superfluous."
General Ma stood up abruptly, snatched a knife from the guard next to him, and pointed at Yan Li with a flash of light, "Don't pretend, I just tested you a little, and you showed your feet! You didn't come from here at all!" Those who came from the palace have never even met the prince."
Yan Li still couldn't figure out how he showed his feet.
"What do you mean, I'm lying?"
General Ma laughed: "To tell you the truth, the prince and I are not cousins at all, our relationship is far away! In the entire Tianchi country, who doesn't know? Since you are the king's bodyguard, how can you not know? Just this One point is enough for me to judge that you are not the king's bodyguard, you are a fake!"
Yan Li took another sip of his wine, and smiled: "Didn't I tell you, I just entered the palace as a bodyguard, and I don't know much about your royal family. General, you use one or another excuse to refuse to send troops Entering Beijing, do you have other plans? You want to make the rebels and the king both losers. You are a fisherman, don’t you? If the king finds out about your ambitions, you know what the consequences will be? People in the whole country, Come to denounce you! You still come to Beijing with me, and I don’t need to mention what you just said to the king.”
"You came to threaten me?" General Ma was furious, his face blushing purple, "I have never been threatened by anyone!"
He was so angry only because Yan Li had told what was on his mind. He really meant to reap the benefits of being a fisherman, and when the prince and the king lost both sides in the fight, he would come to clean up the mess, wipe out the king and the prince in one fell swoop, and he would become the king of Tianchi country.
Before he finished speaking, he raised his knife and slashed at Yan Li's face. Yan Li stretched out his slender left hand, as fast as lightning, and stunned General Ma. Yan Li immediately grabbed his wrist, pinching his two fingers tightly. General Ma cried out, his face wrinkled into a piece of old bark.
"Ouch, let go!"
The corner of Yan Li's mouth raised, and when General Ma's knife just fell out of his hand, he caught it and pointed with his backhand, which happened to rest on General Ma's neck. Things happened so suddenly, how could those guards have time to protect General Ma
It was too late to protect now, as long as they moved, Yan Li's knife would cut off, and General Ma would die.
"If you want General Ma to die, you can use the knife at me! If you want him to live, just put down the knife in your hand, then exit the conference hall, exit the martial arts hall, and wait outside the general's mansion!"
He didn't put down the knife, and no one attacked Yan Li. A pair of sharp knives were still hanging above Yan Li's head. It seems that they will not withdraw without the order of General Ma.
