Lu Chen pointed at the captain of the guard sitting motionless in front, and suddenly smiled coldly: "The only people who can get this tattoo are the guards who are most valued by the royal family!"
In desert areas, snakes and scorpions are common. Among them, scorpions have different habits. They stay day and night and hide poison on their bodies, just like the royal guards who often have special tasks. As knives in the hands of the royal family, they pounce wherever they point, bringing death and despair to each other. Therefore, there is nothing more suitable for the habits of these guards than scorpions.
For many years, it has been passed down from the royal family that only true confidants will be rewarded with this mark, which represents the other party's absolute loyalty and also represents the trust and affirmation of the royal family in them.
But now, the "scorpion" raised by the royal family turned its poisonous stinger and stung him! That Colt. 45 is obviously going to kill him!
He quietly narrowed his eyes and looked at the old doctor: "Is this what you said will change later?" His voice was low, carrying a hint of inexplicable danger.
The old doctor's face darkened, and he felt a chill in his back.
Although His Majesty the Emperor was in good health when he was young, he only had two princes and at most four biological children including the princess. However, His Majesty had many brothers, and the other party's children were very prosperous...
His Highness actually understood this kind of thing early on, but for so many years, the other party only dared to shout about it behind his back, and never dared to show it to the public. Who would have thought that this time he would go so far!
Leng Yiyao watched the two of them quarreling with interest. The old doctor just wanted to huddle himself into a ball to avoid Lu Chen's low pressure.
However, royal family strife is always like this in every dynasty and every generation? There's nothing strange about it.
He got angry after one assassination? That's because he has been protected so well by his father since childhood. If you were used to it, you should treat this kind of thing like eating. If you encounter it, just treat it as normal. If you don't encounter it, you should make a fuss.
"Now that we know it's a royal guard, are you sure who he is?" Leng Yiyao yawned and turned away to look out the window.
The smoke was rising straight up, and the flames at the gas station had not been completely extinguished. Even though we had driven far away, we could still see clearly.
There was sudden silence in the car...
The captain of the guard turned around carefully and saw that Lu Chen had no expression on his face. He immediately tightened his jaw and without thinking, he spoke directly to Leng Yiyao: "There are no more than five people who can know about His Highness's return journey."
His Majesty the Emperor won the throne from a group of brothers, but it has not been without disturbances over the years.
His Highness's eldest uncle and third uncle are the two most powerful among them. They have been eyeing the throne for many years. However, I didn't expect that this time, he would be so unscrupulous and dare to send royal guards.
Lu Chen lowered his head and glanced at the captain of the guard. He did not reprimand him for talking too much. Instead, he understood in his heart that based on Leng Yiyao's performance just now, if she really had ulterior motives, she could just ignore him and not save him. Why would she follow him back to the capital? .
Her character and intelligence are far above everyone else.
Although admitting this matter would bring shame on his face, he knew clearly in his heart that now, the most critical part of whether he could go back safely along the way was her!
Leng Yiyao didn't pay attention to Lu Chen's sudden depression. On the contrary, she suddenly stroked her chin with interest and showed an unpredictable smile: "Speaking of which, this is the first time I have seen a female royal guard."
