Chapter 1182 Rejection
I ran towards the underground city again. When I passed a street corner, someone seemed to be calling me?
Is it Phoenix and the others?
I was confused, stopped, and looked around.
Sure enough, someone was calling me, but it was not Fenghuang and the others, but two bodyguards in light armor.
The guards panted heavily and ran up to me with great effort. They were so tired that they couldn't utter a single word.
What's wrong with them?
I was very puzzled and frowned.
One of the guards swallowed and said intermittently: "An, Elder An Xiaoyi, please, please go to the palace to have a talk."
"You want to see me for something?"
"No, it's not you," the guard said, "It's your Majesty."
"The Queen is looking for me?" I asked puzzledly, "Why is she looking for me?"
"York Hancheng sent an envoy."
Before he could finish speaking, I turned around and walked forward quickly. As I walked, I waved to them: "Thank you for the announcement. I will go to the palace now."
The two guards stood there with helpless expressions on their faces, not knowing how to express their feelings at this moment.
When I arrived at the palace, I asked about the Queen's location and quickly went to the reception hall.
In the hall, at the highest throne, at some point, the original chair had been removed and replaced by two identical thrones.
On the throne, the Fairy Queen and the Fairy Queen sat side by side. Under them were the Elf elders, but no fairies stopped. It seemed that the Fairy Queen had not yet selected someone who could take on the responsibility.
Facing the reproachful looks of the elders, I walked quickly to my seat with a shy smile, wiped the surface of the chair as usual, and then quickly sat down.
After I pretended to be sitting upright, the Elf Queen summoned the envoy from York and Han to come to me.
The envoy to the temple is wearing a red robe inlaid with gold. He is tall, tall and handsome. If he were placed on the blue planet, he would definitely be spotted by a talent scout and be selected as a first-line star.
The envoy went up to the palace, saluted respectfully, and said: "I, Lawrence, the envoy from York and Han, pay my respects to the Fairy Queen and the Goblin Queen."
"Without courtesy," the Elf Queen said, "Excuse me, what is the purpose of the envoy coming here?"
Lawrence stood up, lowered his head slightly, and said in a calm and pleasant voice: "My lord hopes that Her Majesty the Queen can return Bai Yunying, the former president of the Silver Wing Guild, to my lord."
"You said Bai Yunying is in our Moonlight City?" The Fairy Queen asked, "What evidence is there?"
"My Lord once sent people to follow Bai Yunying and saw her boarding an airship bound for Moonlight City."
"I just took the airship that came here," the Fairy Queen chuckled, "Maybe as soon as I got off the airship, I transferred to another airship and flew to other towns."
"Your Majesty is right, but my Lord also conveyed a message to me about Bai Yunying's movements," he said calmly.
"Oh?" The Elf Queen nodded slightly and said, "Tell me about it."
"Yes" Lawrence said: "My Lord said that Bai Yunying came to Moonlight City to find someone, and that person's name is An Xiaoyi."
When I heard the messenger say my name, my heart didn't even move at all.
Yes, I had already guessed that he would say this, because not long after Bai Yunying escaped here, York and Han City already knew her news and whereabouts. I dare to conclude that there must be insiders in Moonlight City, but I still can't tell who is the insider.
Except for me, the other elders, as well as the two queens, all looked as natural as they could, doing whatever they were supposed to do, and no one turned their attention to me. This calmness was beyond my current background. Unattainable.
After hearing this, the Elf Queen said calmly: "Moonlight City has a vast area and a large population, and there are countless people with the same name named An Xiaoyi. I can't just conduct a census of the population with great fanfare just because of your words."
The messenger pondered for a moment and said: "As far as my lord knows, this An Xiaoyi is not from Moonlight City, but a refugee from Airui City, and should belong to the human race."
"Do you want me to check on a human friend who has taken refuge here?" The Elf Queen's tone was calm, but there was a hint of sullenness in it.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." The messenger bowed and said, "My lord just hopes that your Majesty can uphold justice and bear witness to the profound friendship between the two countries."
"Friendship, hehe." The Fairy Queen chuckled and said, "York Hancheng still wants my friendship from Moonlight City? Ask your master how much friendship Moonlight City has given York Hancheng, and what your master did. "
"Your Majesty" the envoy said respectfully: "What your Majesty said is true. My master was young at that time. Young people are always impulsive and will make some irrational and unwise choices. But since then, my master has always been here." He blames himself and deeply hates his immature actions. To this day, the old man has already changed his ways. It is rare for a monarch to turn back his prodigal son. Such a person must be worth getting to know deeply. "
"Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat." The Fairy Queen said, "Human nature is difficult to change. Forgive me, I still cannot agree with your master."
Seeing that the Fairy Queen was the type who refused to take things too hard, Lawrence had no choice but to turn his attention to the Fairy Queen. He said, "I implore Her Majesty the Queen to agree to my Lord's request to thoroughly investigate the human race named An Xiaoyi in Moonlight City."
The Elf Queen did not reply for a long time, and Lawrence kept his head lowered, as if he would not leave as long as he did not receive a positive answer.
I looked at the Elf Queen and then at the Fairy Queen. The former winked at me and the latter nodded slightly at me.
After pondering for a moment, I stood up slowly and said, "This is the envoy."
Lawrence raised his head and looked at me, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
"Please allow me to introduce myself," I said calmly, "I am an elder from outside the Moonlight City."
"Hello, elder." He nodded slightly at me.
"Hello, Lawrence Messenger" I smiled.
"May I ask your name?" he said respectfully.
"An Xiaoyi," I said, "that's the name you just mentioned."
Messenger Lawrence was obviously taken aback. He stared at me for a few seconds, and then he suddenly realized that his behavior was very rude. He took half a step back, bowed his head slightly again, and said, "Hello, Elder An Xiaoyi."
I nodded: "Forget the polite words, let's get straight to the point, Messenger Lawrence."
"Okay." Lawrence raised his head and looked at me levelly. He said calmly: "Looking at your appearance, you should be a young human race. You must be the human race who fled to Moonlight City."
"Exactly."
"In that case, that would be the best thing," he said seriously, "please return Bai Yunying, the defector from our country, to me."
"Allow me to say no" I smiled.
"What did you say?" Although Lawrence's expression remained as usual, the aura revealed in his words had become much stronger.
"I said" I still smiled and said, "I refuse."
