Chapter 68 The First Voter (Part 1)
"Meng Lie, you're doing a pretty job, you're like a man."
In the eyes of others, it is definitely a model of noble and elegant ladies. Miss Sikong Juya, the first talented woman in the East Continent who is like an ethereal fairy, patted Meng Lie on the shoulder without any manners and shouted in a loud voice: "Li Chengguang has always done all kinds of evil. I have long been disgusted with him. It is really great to let him eat turtles this time. Unfortunately, the mistake this guy made this time was not very big, that is, he could only punish him for forcing land or something. With him behind him, he couldn't even get him to jail, which was a bit cheaper."
Is this really the legendary "Elegant Juxian" and the lady Sikong Juya who is a ladylike model?
The Yuan girl standing there holding a tea tray in her hand. Sikong Juya's performance actually overturned the impression she knew about "Danya Juxian", one of the four legendary beauties in the East Continent, and had a feeling of an idol-breaking feeling.
On the other side, Anna, who changed into an exquisite Qin Song lady's suit, and her blonde hair was like the most exquisite doll, grabbed Meng Lie's arm tightly and refused to let go. The blue eyes were shining tears, which made people feel pity.
They were originally receiving the greeting of Qin Song officials, and Anna perfectly showed her noble queen style. This girl from the Western Continent became the focus of countless people, stealing the limelight between Ying Lanyue and Sikong Juya. But when she found out that Meng Lie was missing, she suddenly became anxious, just like a poor sister abandoned by her beloved brother.
Then Yin Hejun mobilized his army and Li Chengguang was attacked. Originally, this kind of news could not alarm Ying Lanyue, but Ying Lanyue instinctively felt that the matter seemed to be related to Meng Lie, and she did not say anything to the officials and ran straight out, but left Sikong Juya and Anna there.
"Meng Lie, I have ordered him to return all the properties bought by Li Chengguangqiang. In addition, the navy has also begun to rectify. The officer who was bribed by Li Chengguang and handled the military possession procedures for him has also been punished. Now the house belongs to you again, and Li Zhilong also sent someone to send a thousand taels of gold as an apology and compensation."
Ying Lanyue said: "But you can't live here for long. In a few days, you will go back to Danyang, Tiandu with me and tell my father in detail about the journey of the Western Continent."
"It's a pity."
Meng Lie also knew that he could not go back to the peaceful life he used to be. Not to mention anything else, the contract between him and Ying Lanyue alone made it impossible for Ying Lanyue to put him here, and there was a deeper bond between them.
"You have a good rest. I'll say goodbye to my friends and old friends tomorrow. I don't know when I will be back here in the future."
Ying Lanyue stood up and sighed: "I don't know if changing your life like this is good or bad for you, but..."
Meng Lie suddenly shook his head at her and said, "You don't have to say anything more. I understand your thoughts. Following you to Danyang is my own choice. Otherwise, I will have no worries and can leave it all, so you don't have any psychological burden."
Ying Lanyue didn't say anything else, how could she not understand Meng Lie's intentions? Unconsciously, it seemed that a vague feeling of knowing each other was created between them.
Just when Ying Lanyue and Sikong Juya were about to say goodbye, Queen Anna, who was supposed to leave with them, held Meng Lie's sleeve tightly and refused to let go. Sikong Juya smiled and said, "It seems that Her Majesty the Queen is a brother Meng Lie. Originally, Lan Yue wanted to arrange for Anna to live with me, but now it seems that she prefers to be with you, which is good. After all, she has a special identity, and it is a bit too conspicuous if she is with us."
Meng Lie lowered her head and saw Anna's hopeful gaze. This intelligent and bold and willful little queen seemed to really regard him as a brother who could rely on in this strange East Continent. When she recalled Anna's sadness and tears when she was on the boat, Meng Lie couldn't help but feel soft and said, "Then let her stay, I will let Yuannu take good care of her."
Anna immediately let out a happy cheer and hugged his waist tightly, as happy as a bird that could remain in the nest.
After Ying Lanyue and Sikong Juya left, it was completely dark. Yuannu had already prepared a sumptuous dinner for Meng Lie. This diligent little maid has been busy since the moment she returned home, sorting and cleaning everywhere, sweeping away the traces left by Li Chengguang. Fortunately, Li Chengguang did not pay much attention to this place before, but just renovated the portal, and there was no big change inside, otherwise Yuannu would have been exhausted.
"Master, I have prepared everything for you, they are all your favorite dishes."
I took Menglie and Anna to the restaurant and looked at the hearty dishes Yuannu was very proud and authentic. Her cooking skills were very outstanding. Of course, this was also thanks to the teachings of Menglie, a rice-worm gourmet. These dishes were quite attractive in terms of color, fragrance and taste.
"Come on, Anna, eat it as much as you like, don't be polite, if it doesn't suit the taste, please bring it up."
Meng Lie pulled Anna to the table and sat down. The food on the table had already attracted the attention of the little queen. She had been wandering on the sea these days, and was limited by the environment, even if she was taken care of by special care, she could not eat anything good. Now the novel East Continental delicacy is in front of her. She can no longer care about the queen's demeanor, and she started to eat with a cheer. The smart little girl, who had learned to use chopsticks on the boat, was very skilled. For a moment, she saw chopsticks like rain, and she wanted to grow a few more arms out.
Meng Lie also took a few bites. It was Yuan Nu's craftsmanship, which was so nostalgic. Looking at Meng Lie's comfortable expression, Yuan Nu's clear eyes were also crescent-shaped. She had already regarded Meng Lie's happiness as her own happiness.
"Mr. Yuan, thank you so much for leaving you here alone these days."
Meng Lie said sincerely, and at the same time, she picked up a piece of fragrant bamboo shoots with chopsticks and sent them to Yuan Nu's lips. Yuan Nu's face showed excitement, joy and shyness. However, she also knew Meng Lie's personality well and opened her mouth obediently to eat the bamboo shoots.
"Young Master, Yuan Nu is not hard. You are really hard-working when sailing overseas. I heard that the barbarians in the Western Continent are very ignorant..."
Yuannu just spoke, but Anna, the "barbarian" beside him, was a little unhappy. He immediately coughed lightly, and Meng Lie pointed at her and said, "Yuannu, let me introduce you to her. This is Her Majesty Queen Annastasia, which is the barbarian queen you mentioned."
After exclaiming, Yuannu's little face turned red and she hurriedly said to Anna: "Her Majesty, I didn't mean it..."
What kind of people did the young master know when he traveled west this time? Needless to say, Princess Ying Lanyue and Miss Sikong Juya actually brought the queen of the Western Continent home. The queen called him "brother" one by one. She had already begun to doubt whether there was something wrong with her young master. Is this the young master who was lazy, fierce and unambitious, and who was fun to tease her?
Anna did not really blame Yuannu. Besides, she was enjoying the delicious food made by Yuannu. She ate someone's short mouth, and immediately she expressed that she forgave Yuannu's rudeness.
"Niu Yuan, you should also take a break early today. Tomorrow, you will sort out the things at home, pack up everything you can take away, and sell them if you can't take them away. Follow me to Danyang, Tiandu. I don't know if there is any chance to come back here in the future."
After dinner, just as Yuannu was packing the tableware, Meng Lie spoke, while Yuannu said in surprise: "Young Master, this time... are you going to take me with you this time?"
She had already heard Ying Lanyue say that she was going to Danyang, and she was sad and wanted to part with the young master just after reunited. However, Meng Lie's words suddenly dispelled all the dark clouds in her heart.
"Of course I'm going to take you away. I'm not relieved to leave you here alone. If there is any accident again, it's too late to regret it. You little girl is really not worry-free. You are obviously powerless but you have the courage to be an assassin. If I hadn't come back in time, would you know what would happen to you?"
Meng Lie's voice showed a hint of fear. He didn't even want to think about what fate would the Yuannun who fell into Li Chengguang's hands if he came back a few days later.
Yuannu smiled timidly, and she was completely like a gentle and obedient little maid. She didn't have the fearlessness and determination to assassinate Li Chengguang alone.
