Fina looked at the little white dragon in surprise. It was hard to believe that this was the nutria-like little guy from before: "It turned out to be a little golden dragon."

Xiao Bailong glanced at Fina with some dissatisfaction. She was obviously one of the witnesses of his bloodline, but now she would have such a big reaction.

Thinking of the dead emperor, Fina couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Tang Lie patted the golden dragon's neck gently: "Without it, it would be difficult for me to successfully reach Chuanyun City from the heavy siege of the imperial army. Now it's time for it to help us."

Fina said: "Do you want to go see the princess?"

Tang Lie shook his head and said, "Wait until I find the scepter." He stepped on the golden dragon's back, held Fina's delicate hand, and said softly, "Protect the princess. Wait until I come back."

Fina nodded heavily.

The virtual sea under the moonlight is rare and calm. It is as gentle as a girl's eyes. The little white dragon spreads its broad golden wings and glides calmly on the sea. Its belly sometimes passes over the sea, carrying a bunch of them. The white water line quickly rose from the sea and flew into the air, circling and playing with a few sleepless gulls.

Tang Lie's eyes were quietly admiring the beautiful seascape at night, but his heart was ups and downs. Perhaps for him, this was the last peace.

The body of the little white dragon slowly descended. It was gliding slowly at a height of two meters away from the sponge. Judging from the position, Tang Lie knew that he had arrived at the top of the crystal forest. He rechecked his accompanying items and found the chapter. The mask that Baqiao gave him was carefully put on his face. He took a deep breath of cool air, stretched his arms vigorously, and whispered to Xiao Bailong: "Get down, little guy." He was originally He wanted Xiao Bailong to send him to the bottom of the sea, but he didn't expect that Xiao Bailong's body suddenly shook. Tang Lie fell backwards into the sea without being fully prepared.

The little white dragon circled around the white waves splashed by Tang Lie. Then it quickly flew upwards. Its golden body penetrated into the gloomy clouds like a shooting star.

Tang Lie secretly cursed Xiao Bailong as a bastard. A circle of closed space was quickly formed around his body with energy. He quickly descended into the sea water. He played with the water-proof beads with his big hands. Having the experience of entering the Crystal City last time, Tang Lie this time Be more calm. While you are in the water, you feel like you are flying in the sky.

Tang Lie followed the memory of last time and came to Zhushan Ancient Ferry where Xu Yanniang sent them to escape.

The abandoned dock stood like a monster in the dark water. Thinking of the thrilling escape last time, Tang Lie couldn't help but smile. Tang Lie's initial plan was to enter the Crystal City through the waterway where he escaped last time. But he only blamed himself for patronizing it. He wanted to escape. Moreover, the waterway to escape was complicated. The little white dragon led the way the whole way. He couldn't remember the original way at all. The damn little white dragon actually walked away at this time, putting himself in such an embarrassing situation.

Tang Lie secretly called for the little white dragon in his heart, hoping that it would come to his side. He waited at Zhushan Ancient Ferry for a long time, but did not see the little white dragon coming. He slowly lost hope.

After groping for a while in the underwater ruins, I found the ferry where I left. What surprised Tang Lie was that there was a deep-water boat moored there.

Orange lights illuminated the sea ahead. Beautiful fish floated around the light beam.

Tang Lie looked at everything in front of him curiously. It seemed that someone had already had a premonition that he was coming.

"Brother Tang, I have to wait so hard." Xu Yanniang was wearing a red dress. She was sitting on the platform above the deep water boat with a smile. Her chubby round face was full of cunning expressions.

Tang Lie knew that even though he was wearing a mask, he was still seen through by Xu Yanniang. He laughed loudly and said, "Sister, I was just missing you. It just so happened that you came here."

Xu Yanniang covered her lips and giggled: "Brother Tang's words are still heart-warming. It's a hundred times better than that lewd scoundrel. Although the girl knows that everything you said is a lie, it still sounds so comfortable."

This was not the first time Tang Lie had interacted with Xu Yanniang. He knew that although she looked vulgar on the surface, she was actually a very smart woman and quite difficult to deal with. However, Tang Lie intuitively felt that she would not betray him, so he did not feel anything in his heart. Panicking, he smiled and joked: "Who is that lewd scoundrel? Is this girl's sweetheart?"

Xu Yanniang spat softly: "Don't talk nonsense. Even if all the men in the world die, I will not consider that wretched guy." There was a little shyness on his face. Tang Lie observed the details, and couldn't help but move in his heart. Could it be that he came and went? Xu Yanniang actually has a crush on Ya Yi An. It seems that not inviting Ya Yi An to come with her this time was a mistake.

Tang Lie said: "My sister came here specially to pick me up."

Xu Yanniang nodded and said: "Although I am not well-informed, several major events that have happened recently cannot be hidden from me."

Tang Lie said lazily: "What's the big deal? Sister, can you tell me about it?"

Of course Xu Yanniang knew that Tang Lie was pretending to be confused, but she didn't point it out on the spot. She invited Tang Lie to sit in the deep-water boat. Food and wine were already prepared on the small table in the cabin. Tang Lie had to admire Xu Yanniang's judgment. He was able to guess that he was here today. This woman's wisdom was more outstanding than he imagined. How terrible it would be if she became his enemy.

Xu Yanniang poured the wine for Tang Lie with her own hands and said: "Brother and sister, we meet again after a long separation. Let's have a drink first."

Tang Lie said loudly: "How can one cup express my inner joy? How about three cups in a row."

Xu Yanniang nodded. Sure enough, she and Tang Lie had three drinks in a row.

Tang Lie reminded her: "You can talk, sister."

Xu Yanniang said: "The queen first arrested your good friend this time. Then she had someone steal the scepter representing the royal power of the Xuanwu Kingdom. All of this is aimed at you."

Tang Lie was shocked. It was not surprising that Xu Yanniang knew about Ling Ying. However, the loss of the scepter was an extremely secret matter. Shui Daiyin would not have made the matter public. What's more, it had just happened not long ago. Why did Xu Yanniang You will know. Could it be that Xu Yanniang and Shui Daiyin have an extremely close relationship.

Xu Yanniang seemed to have guessed what Tang Lie was thinking. She chuckled and said, "Brother Tang, don't be alarmed. Of course I have my own methods. I can tell you something clearly. There is no cooperative relationship between Shui Daiyin and I. Otherwise, there is no cooperative relationship between me and Shui Daiyin." I wouldn’t have helped you escape last time either.”

Tang Lie pretended to be careless: "So, the girl is here to help me."

"Of course."

Tang Lie said meaningfully: "My sister is really affectionate and loyal to me."

Xu Yanniang smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Tang seems to be doubting my sincerity."

Tang Lie laughed and didn't answer.

Xu Yanniang said: "I won't go around with Brother Tang. I'll help you rescue your friends and take back the scepter. How about you take me to find the golden warship."

Tang Lie smiled and said, "This deal sounds like a good deal."

"So you shouldn't refuse."

Tang Lie nodded and drank all the wine on the table: "Tell me how you plan to help me."

Xu Yanniang said: "Since you rescued Princess Xuanbo and escaped from the Crystal Palace last time, the queen was very angry. She asked her trusted warriors to check all the underground channels and then sealed them."

Tang Lie's heart sank. It seemed that his plan to sneak into the palace through the underground tunnel without anyone noticing had no chance of being realized.

Xu Yanniang continued: "So only if we work together can we achieve each other's wishes." She stretched out her hand expectantly.

Tang Lie smiled and held Xu Yanniang's hand. Although it was a little fat, it was smooth and soft. It felt good to the touch.

Xu Yanniang said angrily: "Brother Tang, you don't even think about girls' ideas, do you?"

Tang Lie smiled and said: "I forgot to tell you. I never believe that there is a pure brother-sister relationship between men and women."

Xu Yanniang smiled coquettishly.

The opportunity Xu Yanniang mentioned is three days later. In three days, envoys from the Xuanwu Kingdom will go to the Crystal Palace to meet with the queen and discuss with her the alliance to attack Chuanyun City. According to Xu Yanniang’s understanding, a large number of gifts will be sent into the palace from the east gate of the Crystal Palace. This is Tang Lie's only chance to enter the palace. All gifts from foreign countries must go through the triple inspection of the post house, the palace, and the storage. Xu Yanniang is confident enough to let Tang Lie pass smoothly.

Tang Lie and Xu Yanniang came to stay in her Chunfeng Nest temporarily. Xu Yanniang was indeed very powerful. She investigated the information Tang Lie needed and reported it to Tang Lie as soon as possible.

The envoy sent by the Xuanwu Kingdom this time is Pu Longqi. This person was highly valued during the lifetime of Emperor Xuan Sizhe of the Xuanwu Kingdom. His status was equal to that of Sima Tai and Adams. This time he was asked to come to Crystal City to discuss the alliance. This shows that the empire attaches great importance to this alliance. And the gifts Pulongqi brought with him this time are also quite mysterious. After entering the post house, he declined the protection of the Hai clan and still let his subordinates personally protect everything. Among the gifts, a wooden box was the most precious. He personally guarded it. It seemed that he would not let it go easily before giving it to the Queen of the Sea Tribe.

After listening to Xu Yanniang's story, Tang Lie felt a little disappointed. He said bitterly: "What a bullshit gift. It's made so mysterious."

Xu Yanniang smiled and said: "Six boxes. I guess they contain some gold and silver treasures. But there may be some good things in that wooden box."

Tang Lie was most concerned about how he could sneak into the Crystal Palace. He whispered: "It seems that it is impossible to enter the inn."

Xu Yanniang smiled and said: "Before the gifts enter the palace, they will stop temporarily at the east gate. You can take advantage of this opportunity to sneak in."

Tang Lie smiled bitterly and said, "How do I sneak in?"

Xu Yanniang said with a smile in her beautiful eyes: "Don't tell me. You even lost your invisibility cloak."

He didn't expect Xu Yanniang to know everything about him so well. After thinking about it, Tang Lie thought that it was probably that bastard Ya Yi'an who leaked the secret. He would definitely settle the score with him someday.

Xu Yanniang said: "I am responsible for getting you into the temporary storage area for gifts at the east gate. After you check the gifts, go into the box. I have people check it. The box is enough for you to hide."

Tang Lie said: "If it is filled with gold and silver, I'm afraid there won't be room for me."

Xu Yanniang smiled and said: "Silly brother, after the inspection, he will stay there for about half an hour. After the registration is completed, he will notify the palace guards to transport the gifts to the warehouse. There are opportunities everywhere."

Tang Lie sighed and said, "It's up to people to plan things, and it's up to God to make things happen. Everything just depends on taking one step at a time."

Everything was going smoothly as planned. After the six boxes, which were closely protected by the Xuanwu people, were handed over to the Hai clan people, they were quickly counted and entered into the books. Among them were nothing more than gold, silver, silk and the like. There was also a box of six slips in it. The heaviest of the boxes was temporarily locked in a temporary warehouse after being recorded.

Tang Lie, who had already been hiding in the temporary warehouse, took this opportunity to open the box containing the letters. He took out some of the letters and hid them in the temporary warehouse. Then he wore an invisibility cloak and entered the wooden box and hid among the letters. Down.

After waiting for a full hour, the palace guards came to deliver the gifts.

Two of the warriors lifted up the box where Tang Lie was hiding. After taking two steps, they couldn't help cursing: "Xuanwu Kingdom is so damn stingy. Why are you sending so many slips?"

Another warrior sighed and said: "They must have inquired carefully before giving gifts. The gifts they give must naturally please the queen."

The warrior in front laughed and said, "Hurry up. You can't even lift a box of letters."

The warrior who spoke first scolded: "It doesn't hurt to stand and talk. You are so powerful. Why don't you give me a change?"

The warrior said: "My box is full of gold and silver. It is much heavier than your box."

"Strange. How can the letter be heavier than gold and silver?"

Tang Lie was frightened for a while, fearing that the warrior would put down the box and check if there was any mystery inside.

Fortunately, the samurai just muttered twice and let it go. He insisted on carrying the box to the warehouse and put the boxes into the warehouse in order. At this time, the official responsible for guarding the warehouse came over. The leading samurai took the boxes from the temporary warehouse just now. The roster was handed to him.

The official said: "Open the box. I want to check it for acceptance."

Tang Lie secretly screamed that something was wrong. If they checked carefully, his hiding place would definitely be exposed. He quietly held the handle of the knife with his right hand. If necessary, he would have to kill all these people in order to prevent his whereabouts from being exposed.

The six boxes were opened in turn. The official walked back and forth. He reached out and picked up a slip on Tang Lie's head. He chuckled and threw the slip down again. It hit Tang Lie's head. Tang Lie held his breath. Don't dare to make a sound while breathing for fear of being discovered by him.

The official said: "You go ahead. After I count them, I will hand the gift list to Her Majesty the Queen."
Chapter completed!
