Chapter 2753 2755 [Milo]
After Xiang Nan came out of the conference hall, he came to the market with Pei Zhao.
Just as I was looking for a place to chat, I heard a charming voice shout, "General Pei~"
Immediately, there was a gust of fragrant wind, followed by a beautiful woman, rushing towards Pei Zhao.
"Hey, I'm not here to drink." Pei Zhao stretched out his hand to block her.
"If you don't come to drink, come in for a cup of tea." The beauty still held Pei Zhao's arm and said.
"I'm just passing by." Pei Zhao pushed her away.
"You can't just pass by here." The beauty still warmly invited.
Xiang Nan smiled, "Go in, don't refuse someone's kindness."
As he spoke, he walked into the tavern first.
"This son is still knowledgeable and interesting." The beauty laughed.
Seeing this, Pei Zhao had no choice but to walk in.
…
"This is my private collection of aged grapes. It has a bit of stamina." The beauty presented a jug of wine, then looked at Pei Zhao and smiled.
Pei Zhao lowered his head and ignored her.
The beauty didn't take it seriously, she turned her head and looked at Xiang Nan, "This young man looks strange, may I ask..."
"I'm in the jewelry business, and I'm a good friend of General Pei." Xiang Nan smiled slightly and introduced himself, "Everyone calls me Fifth Young Master."
"Fifth son?! So you are the fifth child at home?" The beauty asked with a smile, obviously intending to test.
"Why are you talking so much? Talk less, it's more important to pour wine!" Seeing this, Pei Zhao scolded loudly.
"Yes." The beauty glanced at Pei Zhao flirtatiously, and then poured wine for Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao, "You two take it easy, call me if you need something."
After finishing speaking, he got up, twisted his slender waist, and went to take care of other guests.
"This place really has everyone." Xiang Nan looked at Pei Zhao and said.
"Well, because this place is on the border of many countries, there are mixed fish and dragons. Each is their own master and has their own plans." Pei Zhao explained.
Xiang Nan nodded, "What's the lady boss's name?"
"Milo." Pei Zhao replied.
…
"Fifth prince, a few days ago I captured a Danchi man named Batur. After interrogation, he confessed to be the one who assassinated the prince. Li Feng has already escorted him to Beijing, and he will probably be back soon. " Pei Zhao said to Xiang Nan.
"Azhao, do you really believe that the Danchi people assassinated elder brother?" Xiang Nan curled his lips and said.
Pei Zhao was slightly taken aback, "The Fifth Prince thinks otherwise?"
Xiang Nan nodded, "I sneaked into Danchi Wang's account this time, and I found out that although the people of Danchi knew that Feng Dynasty sent troops, they didn't know the specific reason.
Even King Tiedar thought that I sent troops to the rich dynasty because of Danchi's raids on the border over the years. If the eldest brother was really killed by them, why are they so confused. "
"But... Batur has already confessed." Pei Zhao asked in bewilderment.
"Under the three trees, there is nothing you can ask for." Xiang Nan said quietly.
Using torture to extract confessions and using words to induce credit, even a hard-nosed man would find it hard to resist. Especially Danchi people, with simple minds, are more likely to be tricked.
"The fifth prince thinks there is something suspicious about it, so should we go to the emperor?" Pei Zhao asked hastily.
"I'm just skeptical, but there's no evidence, so I shouldn't report it rashly. Besides, the battle between Feng Chao and Dan Chi is already imminent. Playing it now will only affect morale." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "But Ah Zhao, brother His death and grievances. We must keep it in our hearts, and one day, we will avenge our elder brother."
…
In the next few days, Xiang Nan spent time studying Western characters in Anhu Mansion.
He learns very fast, far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
At the same time, Gao Xian also sent troops to strangle the spies of various countries in the city.
The war was imminent, and he didn't want the military situation to be leaked, so he went on a killing spree.
As a result, the city was full of blood and countless dead. Even Milo, the owner of the restaurant, who is astonishingly beautiful and charming, disappeared in this big cleansing.
It is unknown whether it is life or death, and it makes Xiang Nan regret that he will not be able to drink the grape wine she has kept privately.
…
"Fifth Prince, I just heard that King Danchi Tiedar offered a reward, whoever can kill the white-eyed wolf king will be able to marry the ninth princess of Xizhou.
Now there is a commotion outside, and nine out of ten warriors from all over the world have gone into the mountains to hunt the wolf king. "On this day, Pei Zhao reported to Xiang Nanhui.
Xiang Nan frowned when he heard this.
"The king of Xizhou has already promised me a marriage marriage, but now King Tidar has issued a reward to recruit husbands for the nine princesses of Xizhou. Not only does he disrespect the king of Xizhou, but he also disrespects my rich dynasty. It is unreasonable!" He was angry! typical.
"It's really inappropriate." Pei Zhao nodded, and then persuaded, "But the fifth prince doesn't have to worry too much. The white-eyed wolf king has been swaying Tiangen Mountain for more than ten years. He is extremely cunning and ferocious. He has become a myth in the Western Region. Someone will kill it."
"No matter how cruel and cunning, he is just a beast." Xiang Nan curled his lips, "If he is really killed, and King Tiedar really betrothed the nine princesses to him, then wouldn't my rich dynasty become a joke? Wouldn't the marriage be in vain."
"What the fifth prince is worried about." Pei Zhao agreed after hearing this.
If the ninth princess is really betrothed to someone else, how can she still be the princess of the rich dynasty? The marriage plan between the Rich Dynasty and Xizhou will be ruined once, and it will also affect the control of the Rich Dynasty over the Western Territory.
"Azhao, help me find a reliable hunter, I want to go into the mountains to kill the white-eyed wolf king." Xiang Nan said immediately.
"This..." Pei Zhao was taken aback, but still nodded.
…
Xiang Nan was led by the hunter and entered Tian Gen Mountain.
Tian Gen Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, full of strange rocks and beasts. Among them, the white-eyed wolf king is the overlord among the beasts, extremely ferocious.
"Master, this wolf dung is still fresh. It seems that there must be a pack of wolves nearby." The hunter carefully checked the traces on the ground, and then reported to Xiang Nanhui.
Xiang Nan nodded.
Follow the footprints left by the wolves and continue to track. In less than an hour, they entered a dense forest.
At this time, the mountains and haze began to rise, and a mist rose from the woods, making the forest darker and gloomy, causing the hunters to tremble and have lingering fears.
"Young Master, you can't go any further. If you go any further, you might end up in a wolf's den." The hunter reminded.
At this moment, a wolf howl suddenly came from a distance, "Wow..."
Immediately, the pack of wolves joined forces, and the sound of howling was endless.
"My lord, we are in serious trouble. We are really being targeted." Hearing this, the hunter was terrified.
Based on him and Xiang Nan, they are absolutely no match for the wolves.
Even their horses were restless at the moment, snorting and stomping on the ground.
"You run away first." Xiang Nan took out a gold ingot and threw it to him, then pulled out the sword from under the saddle and said, "I will help you for a while."
"Thank you, my lord, good things are rewarded for you." The hunter took the gold ingot and said happily, then turned his horse's head and left in a hurry.
Xiang Nan got off his horse, took off his rucksack, and patted the horse, "You run for your life too."
The horse neighed, then turned around and ran away.
Xiang Nan put on his rucksack and walked forward facing the howling of wolves.
