Ye Qing had never seen such a low-key and luxurious palace.

She walked behind the brother and sister, with a gold-scorched rosewood floor inlaid with gemstones of various colors, and portraits hung on both sides of the corridor, in which men and women she did not know at all watched silently in the paintings.

This palace was bigger than she imagined, and it was also bigger than it looked, even if Ye Qing already knew that this was the palace of the Ster royal family in Ye Ye City, where the original emperor had stayed during his expedition to the west.

But before entering, all imagination is illusory.

You can think that the gold under your feet is invaluable, but the magic patterns that are connected to each other are even more valuable, and it is their existence that this palace built for hundreds of years is still alive, even if it is uninhabited for decades, it will not be covered with a speck of dust.

But under the magic pattern, those thick and heavy incense red sandalwood exudes a faint and elegant fragrance, these precious woods have become less and less in the field of vision of ordinary people, only in the inaccessible primeval forest can find their traces, like such a wooden board can pave half of the corridor of the large timber is far more than the same weight of gold, the gems and pearls inlaid on it illuminate the entire space from the bottom up, The smallest gems the size of a pigeon's egg would have been enough to set the crown of any emperor with a single pick, but here they are left to be trampled and worn out.

As for those people who were lifelike and staring at him in the portrait, Ye Qing didn't know them, but it didn't prevent Ye Qing from appreciating the exquisite skills of the painting itself.

Ye Qing is the fourth princess of the empire, and she has grown up in that huge and magnificent palace since she was a child, but no palace she has ever seen has the almost extravagant arrangement in front of her.

"Don't be surprised, it just means that you used to be rich here." Xi Che didn't look back, looking at the portraits in the corridors on both sides as he walked, until he stopped in front of one of them: "Of course you don't recognize everyone here, because they are all warriors who died in the conquest of this place, but you should know this one." ”

Ye Qing looked at the painting in front of Xi Che, the person in the painting was too famous, Ye Qing couldn't not know: "Commander of the Blazing Flame Legion, Marshal Xi Chen, Conqueror." ”

The portrait depicts a heroic blonde soldier with his sword clenched in both hands on his chest, in a standard warrior pose, but it does not hide the feeling that he stands out from the crowd in these portraits.

He's an ordinary person who stands side by side with the ordinary warriors, but when you look at him, you can tell him apart from the rest at a glance.

"Yes, our future saint." Xi Che chuckled with an inexplicable expression: "Before each battle, he would ask the painter to paint a portrait of him, and then lead his Blazing Legion to kill in blood and fire, he was injured many times, each time more serious, but he survived in the end, and he has survived until now." ”

"Whenever he conquers the next kingdom, he will open the treasury of the kingdom, and except for the part that is given to the soldiers, the rest will be built into such a palace for the first emperor to live in, and the portraits of the warriors who died in battle will remain here forever as part of their deeds, to be examined by His Majesty who has come here, who have given us their loyalty and their lives in return."

Xi Che said calmly, his tone not wavering.

"Are they all here?" Ye Qing asked.

"Not really." Xi Che shook his head: "So the warriors of the Blazing Flame Legion are naturally in it, but for ordinary soldiers, they can only leave a name, which is engraved on the chair in the depths of this palace, if you have the consciousness of death before the battle, you can also ask the painter to draw one for you, and then give it to the judges, when it is confirmed that you are dead, your portrait can be hung in the corridor of that kingdom palace." ”

"Although I haven't been to every palace, in terms of the palaces I've seen, Ye Ye is undoubtedly the most valuable one."

Xi Che finally turned around, and there was a sharp sword light in his golden eyes: "There are the most portraits here, and the ornaments are the most expensive. ”

"At that time, the Lanye Empire was far from being established, and I was not in the mood to hold you invaders accountable for their crimes." Ye Qing looked at the other party's eyes and said lightly: "I just want to know, do you have any plans to add portraits here?" ”

"Spare me." Xi Che smiled: "I'm fighting in the south, the smell of those elf girls' bows and arrows, don't you say, it's really full of charm, there are enough portraits of Sike Point, and there are not so many painters to paint them for the time being." ”

Ye Qing sneered: "Then you have plans for the future?" ”

"Who can tell what will happen in the future?" Xi Che touched the sword in Marshal Xi Chen's hand with his hand: "Just like the conqueror Xi Chen at that time, he could think that he would become the first saint of mankind, and gave up everything he had, some people can see the past, some people can see the future, but for us ants in the world, we can only grasp some things in the present." ”

Ye Qing accepted Xi Chen's words and put an end to this unhappy topic: "So right now, what are you doing here with a broken weapon away from the elves' bows and arrows?" ”

"Of course it's more important than that." Xi Che shrugged his shoulders and continued to walk forward, Xingxi and Ye Qing also silently followed.

"I don't know who you got this information from, but there are always some people in this city who know, let me guess." Xi Che said as he walked forward.

"I can't hide what Yi Lanshan wants to know, two of my chefs in Xike Point are his people, because he likes the veal steak they grill the most, so he has been reluctant to kill, but the current stand-in is not used to eating such a strong taste, so I am afraid it has been passed here." Xi Che smiled faintly, and seemed to say something very simple: "But you have known Yi Lanshan for a long time, and you understand that his things are not so easy to take, and besides, this is information worth selling, so it is estimated that it is not Yi Lanshan." ”

"As for Christie's ghost girl, like her candy, you will become more and more dependent on her when you get it, so that you can no longer live without the sweet and dreamy taste, until you fall into the endless abyss." When it came to Christie, there was a smile on the corner of Xi Che's mouth: "I really don't know much about her marriage contract with that little ghost Ge Sheng, after all, I am still a certain distance from omniscient and omnipotent, otherwise I wouldn't have taken the liberty to propose to her." ”

"If it weren't for Ge Sheng's relationship, she would be your most reliable helper, after all, that girl herself is an out-and-out good person, and she has a great relationship with the princess of Os."

"But if it weren't for Christie, then there would be very few people in this city who knew about my existence, although Ao Xuehua's ears and eyes are sensitive, but this is not Oss after all, I am still confident that she will not find out, after all, I don't need to declare that I am here like last time."

Xi Che shook his head, and finally spoke: "It's the same on the elves' side, they have this ability, but without the blessing of the home field, they don't have enough tentacles to detect all this. ”

"But I don't believe you girl could have guessed for herself that I would be here today."

"Let's talk about it, I can provide equivalent information on this."

Ye Qing nodded.

In fact, she was also very curious about why Ebi knew such hidden information, but at this time, she was still a little happy to make the other party deflated.

"Beiluan was attacked, and all the Yueyi notes he was carrying were also taken."

But when he spoke, he was talking about things that were incompatible.
