Chapter 1137 Thrall Empire (3)
"Your Highness, all the subordinates know your intentions, but you must also be careful. Some words are better kept in your heart." The guard reminded helplessly.
Long Xi frowned, "Few of the current ministers dare to speak out. If Chi Tong was still there..."
"Your Highness!" The guard's expression changed suddenly when he heard the word Chitong.
Long Xi seemed to have sensed something, he gritted his teeth and swallowed the words he hadn't finished speaking, and the hand that rested on the handle of the chair quietly crushed the wood.
"If Chi Tong was still there, seeing you petitioning for the people like this, he would probably be proud of it."
Suddenly, a female voice with the slightest smile resounded in the room.
Long Xi suddenly stood up and looked around, the guard was still standing in front of him with a sword in his hand, his face full of vigilance.
A petite figure slowly walked out from the back room of the room as the voice fell to the ground.
When he saw the appearance of the person coming, Long Xi couldn't help but take a deep breath.
What appeared in front of him was a young girl who looked to be at most sixteen or seventeen years old, but the most surprising thing was that young girl's appearance. The talented Long Xi couldn't find any words for a while. Describe the girl in front of you.
Beautiful and noble, but with a leisurely casualness in the world, that delicate face is like a gift from heaven, so perfect that no one can find a trace of flaws.
"Who are you?" Long Xi was amazed by the young girl's appearance, but quickly came to his senses. How could there be such a young girl in his room?
The girl walked in front of Long Xi with unhurried steps. Looking at the heavy sword held in the hands of the guards standing in front of Long Xi, the corner of her mouth involuntarily evoked a deep smile. Under the surprised eyes of others, she naturally sat on the chair in front of them, and looked at the two people on guard with a smile while resting her chin on her small white hands.
"I'm here to help you."
"Help me?" Long Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, only felt that this girl was eccentric, but that eccentricity was completely different from her graceful and fairy-like temperament.
The girl smiled slightly and didn't say anything. She just raised her hand and slapped a half-palm-sized name tag made of black iron on the table.
When Long Xi's gaze touched the nameplate, a look of shock burst out in his eyes. He looked at the nameplate in disbelief, and for a moment, he raised his head and stared at the girl in front of him.
"No matter who you are, you'd better tell me the origin of this famous brand, otherwise you will definitely not be able to walk half a step out of my house today!"
"The origin of this famous brand?" The girl raised her eyebrows slightly, and there was an intriguing smile on the corner of her mouth.
"I think His Highness should know better than I do about the origin of this famous brand, right? After all, you gave it away with your own hands back then."
On that cold nameplate, the word "Chi" was engraved with big thorns.
Long Xi is very familiar with this thing. It was made by a famous person and handed over to Chitong by himself the day before Chitong's leather armor went into battle. When Chitong was killed and his body was not found, this famous brand was naturally missing. trace.
But Long Xi never imagined that one day, he would see old things again.
Looking at Long Xi's astonished gaze, the girl didn't intend to keep showing off, and said directly, "This thing was given to me by General Chi."
