"Crazy, crazy girl... she just advanced to the black energy. Is that what it is?" Guan Heng yawned, turned around and threw himself on the bed in the room, and muttered: "You are so angry as a young man, you have never seen the world of the countryside.

Girl, haha, even though I am only in the semi-dark realm."

…

He didn't know how long he had slept again, but Guan Heng suddenly felt that his ears were being grabbed by someone again, so he shouted: "Hey, who is it?"

"Of course it's me." Qing Huang's voice sounded loudly: "Otherwise, who would dare to pull your ears, Mr. Guan?"

"Haha, if you attack me first, you have to pay the price." Guan Heng suddenly sat up and reached out to hug the other person's waist. Qinghuang immediately jumped away with a smile: "You are so beautiful, don't even think about succeeding."

"Oh, I can't even hug you, you're stingy." Guan Heng walked to the copper basin in front of the window and washed his face.

Qing Huang said from the side: "Hey, let's go have breakfast quickly. The Marquis said that the tribute envoys from each tribe would go to the co-lord's palace very early, around early in the morning, to queue up and wait to see the co-lord.

”

"Hey, those are just false names, but I was entrusted by others to be loyal, and I finally agreed to Clan Chief Xu Fei and Clan Gao Fu." Guan Heng wiped his face at this time, and then went to Lu Jin's place with Qing Huang.

side.

When he saw the dwarf Yang Jin when he entered the door, Guan Heng laughed: "Haha, Brother Yang, you came quite early."

"It's just that you got up too late." Yang Jin took a sip from the water bowl at this time, and then said: "Did you know? Before dawn this morning, all the people in the tribute embassy post had already fled. I

I guess even if we rush there now, we will only be the last in line to get in."

Guan Heng casually picked up a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth, and asked hesitantly: "Oh, do you care about these?"

"Hehehe, don't care!" Yang Jin said with a smile: "Otherwise, I would have left you alone." After hearing this, Guan Heng gave him a thumbs up:

"Okay, enough friends."

"Hey, you two, stop joking around." Zhengchang Hou Lujin twirled his beard and said with a bitter smile: "Last night, I sent Lu Pi and a few guards to line up for you, otherwise how could you two do this?

A leisurely meal? I have already urged you to set off."

"It turns out that the Marquis took care of us." Guan Heng and Yang Jin quickly thanked them: "Thank you for your trouble."

"Master Marquis, I wonder if the envoys who enter the palace to pay tribute can bring a few more people with them?" Qinghuang said: "Actually, we also want to enter the palace to have a look."

"Hey, what's there to see there? It's just a few stone houses gathered together."

Hearing Guan Heng's whisper, Marquis Zhenghao was a little confused. He asked: "Guan Heng, how do you know that the palace is a complex of stone houses? Have you ever been in it?"

As soon as he said these words, the people around him suddenly looked a little unnatural, because Guan Heng did sneak into the palace and rescued Yunqin's master and servant, and he also made a big fuss in Yileshan near the palace with everyone. This incident

But it was done without telling Lu Jin, otherwise it would definitely implicate him.

"Ahem, yes, I guessed." Guan Heng cleared his throat and hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Master Marquis, what happened to the queue of tribute envoys you mentioned?"

Zheng Haohou shook his head and said: "This is a long-standing habit of Guan Chongguo that has been practiced for many years..."

It turns out that Chongguo, one of the three ancient kingdoms, advocates force and pursues the tradition of "strength first". There are more than a hundred tribes, large and small, under the common leader who pay tribute to the dynasty. Naturally, each has its own strength, ranging from strong to weak.

But every year when they come to Yangcheng to pay tribute, it is also the moment when the strength of these tribes is re-ranked, which is caused by the order in which the tribute envoys meet the common master.

If you can be among the top ten to meet the co-leader and offer your clan's tribute, you will not only be rewarded with a three-year reduction in tribute from your clan, but the envoy will also receive special praise from the co-lord, but the rewards are different every year. Legend has it that in

In the past, someone had gained the additional qualification to enter the "Cave of Many Treasures".

You can enter the Cave of Duobao without participating in a royal contest and fighting many powerful enemies. However, this has already attracted the tribute envoys from various tribes, and they have crazily squeezed into the top ten.

"Ha, I have already passed the level of Chongwei Tower. As long as I win the imperial competition, I can enter the Cave of Duobao, so this tribute ranking seems to be of no use to me."

Hearing what Guan Heng said, Yang Jin murmured next to him: "Yes, I am also entrusted by my friends. I just need to send the tribute up. As for the cave with many treasures, I am not interested."

"Oh, they are really two willful guys." Agou hugged his shoulders and said: "Master Hou, thank you for thinking about them and finding someone to queue up in advance. Look at them, they look ungrateful."

"No, no." After hearing this, Guan Heng and Yang Jin hurriedly waved their hands and said, "Master Hou, don't listen to Agou's nonsense. I definitely don't mean this."

"Hahaha, it's okay. Since everyone wants to enter the palace to have a look, it's not difficult. Brother Agou, Tianlin, and Ruotao can just change into the clothes of the guards of the Marquis and go with me. As for Xiao Huang..."

Marquis Zhenghao looked at Qing Huang's figure and said with some embarrassment: "There is no one as short as you among the guards. This is really tricky."

Guan Heng murmured in a low voice at this time: "Why don't I use my identity as the 'wife of the tribute messenger' to let you come with me."

"What did you say?" After hearing what he said, Qinghuang's face suddenly turned red. She stretched out her hand and twisted Guan Heng's arm: "I told you to talk nonsense."

"Ouch." Guan Heng's words just now were not loud and everyone did not hear them clearly, but this cry of pain was clearly audible. Everyone's eyes immediately looked at Guan Heng and Qing Huang, whose face was red, and she hurriedly said: "

Mr. Hou, if they really want to go in and take a look, you can think of a way."

"Okay, I'll ask the maid to find a piece of the lady's clothes and make it smaller as soon as possible. How about you put it on and pretend to be my adopted daughter and accompany you?"

"That's very good." Qinghuang happily clapped her hands and said, "Don't talk about pretending, even if I really become your daughter, I would be happy."

Marquis Zhenghao laughed loudly after hearing her words: "Your mouth is so sweet."

…

A short while later, everyone followed Zheng Changhou to the outer wall of the palace. Guan Heng looked around and thought to himself: "I followed those assassins from the Wengling tribe into the palace a few days ago, but it's a pity that I didn't have time to appreciate the nearby scenery.

, now it’s like revisiting the old place.”

At this moment, Marquis Zhenghao said: "Here we are, not far ahead is the main entrance of the palace, let's... hey, that is?"

It was too late to say that, but soon, a few people stumbled up not far away, it was Lu Pi, the guard of the Hou Mansion, and others. Guan Heng's eyes were like a torch, and he saw that their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and they were in a miserable state.
