Chapter 261: Xinmi
"Is it His Royal Highness the King of Wei? The concubine has been waiting here for a long time. ”
A voice came, and everyone present was unexpected, almost subconsciously looking sideways, but saw that not far from the direction of the Six Tiger City, a girl in a long red dress was slowly walking towards where they were.
The arrival of that person far exceeded the expectations of everyone present, Wei Lai's brows were also furrowed there, he looked at the comer, turned around, the look on his face was sad and joyful, and just said, "It's really you." ”
The girl in red saluted Wei Lai Yingying, and said with a smile: "Didn't His Royal Highness King Wei think of it?"
I thought of it, but I didn't dare to believe it, and I didn't want to believe it. Wei Lai said with a wry smile, but his gaze fell on the person who came, and he never deflected for a moment.
He seemed to want to see something from the other party, but unfortunately, the other party always had that faint smile on his face, as if they had first met, making it difficult to grasp the slightest hint of what she really thought in her heart.
This feeling made Wei Lai feel strange and distressed at the same time.
The girl who heard this bowed her head slightly, and said, "It seems that Huan Xi has done a good job these days." ”
Wei Lai was noncommittal about this, and instead thought for a while and asked, "Who are you doing things for?"
"I'm for myself. Ji Huanxi said this.
"Yourself?" Wei Lai raised his eyebrows, his expression a little puzzled.
Ji Huanxi smiled, walked in front of Wei Lai, she looked up at Wei Laiyan and said, "Your Highness wants to hear it?"
"Yes. Wei Lai replied without hesitation.
Ji Huanxi's gaze crossed Wei Lai at that time, looked behind him, and said: "Your Highness led the army all the way to gallop, and it was extremely hard to come and go, I have prepared wine for Your Highness and you in the Six Tigers City, why don't we go there, and I will talk to Your Highness in detail one by one." ”
Before Wei Lai could respond, someone from the crowd behind him stepped forward to stop him.
"Ah Lai!" The first to come to Wei Lai's side was Sun Daren.
He stepped forward nervously, and his eyes that looked at Ji Huanxi were also full of hostility at that time.
"I've long seen that this demon girl is not pleasing to the eye! Husband, don't listen to her nonsense. Xu Yue also said at that time.
Although people such as Ah Cheng did not speak, their eyes looking at Ji Huanxi were also full of vigilance.
But in the face of everyone's doubts, Ji Huanxi didn't say much, just retreated to the side and stood there quietly, waiting for Wei Lai to make his own decision.
Wei Lai's face was not good-looking, he thought about it for a while with a calm brow, and finally raised his head to look at Ji Huanxi, and said, "Okay, I'll go with you." ”
......
Yuan Baiyu let the army settle down in the city, and then went to the city lord's mansion with his white comrades to discuss the so-called important matter.
And just as he was about to step forward, Yuan Yue, who had been reprimanded by him before, suddenly stepped forward and said: "General, this matter is too strange, please be cautious." ”
"Huh?" Yuan Baiyu looked back at Yuan Yue when she heard this.
And Yuan Yue, who was respectfully waiting for Yuan Baiyu to accompany him, heard this, his face changed slightly, but he still said in a deep voice after a few breaths: "My Ningzhou departments are looking forward to Wang Shi, and besides, the general's army is outside the city lord's mansion, is it possible that we can still put our nickname, how about the general?"
Yuan Baiyu also felt justified when he heard this, but at this time, Yuan Yue said: "The general is the head of a hundred generals, and he is the backbone of this army's conquest of Ningzhou. ”
Yuan Baiyu has always been a person who is very happy, but he is scheming, and when he heard these words at this moment, he suddenly couldn't make up his mind, he frowned calmly, and he didn't spit out a sound for a while.
The head of Bai Tongpao, who had been waiting for Yuan Baiyu to make a decision, was lowered a little deeper at that time, and he said: "I smell that it is a big thing, and I don't doubt it, and I don't need to use suspicious people." If the general does not believe in Bai, he can obviously cut off his head with a knife, but after the general Wang Shi pacifies Ningzhou, remember that the Bai family is sincerely surrendered, and don't embarrass my people. After saying this, Bai Tongpao closed his eyes and stretched his neck, looking like he was waiting to be killed.
Seeing this, Yuan Baiyu's doubts suddenly disappeared, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Bai, what are these words, how can I not believe you, let's ......"
"General! If the general insists on going, let the last general go on behalf of the general, and it will not be possible to prevent accidents. Yuan Yue said.
Hearing this, Bai Bei raised his eyes and glanced at Yuan Baiyu, and saw that the other party's face showed hesitation again, and suddenly his heart was in a hurry and he hurriedly said: "General Yuan, this time the king is coming, it stands to reason that my Ningzhou departments should go out to greet them, but it is extremely rude to let the general go to the mansion to see that it is not my Ningzhou departments who deliberately make it difficult to make a score, but in fact, there is a major matter to discuss with the general." ”
Saying that, Bai Baipao saluted Yuan Baiyu again, which was regarded as an accusation. Then he hurriedly got up, came to Yuan Baiyu's side, and whispered a few words in his ear.
When the others heard a few words that were not true, Yuan Baiyu's face changed immediately, and then he looked sideways at Bai Tongpao in surprise and said, "Is this serious?"
Comrade Bai nodded, and hurriedly handed out a letter from his arms and sent it up: "Here is Miss Ji's handwritten letter, and I hope the general will see it." ”
When Yuan Baiyu heard this, he hurriedly took this thing and unfolded it in front of him, reading everything in the letter word by word, and then his face showed joy, and his gaze at Bai Tongpao was much gentler, and he said: "I misunderstood Brother Bai, Brother Bai quickly lead the way, let's go and visit the heads of the departments." ”
Yuan Baiyu was obviously determined at the moment, after he said this, he looked at the people behind him, especially Yuan Yue, who had been persuaded hard before, and said in a deep voice: "I have made up my mind, if you still say more, don't blame Yuan for being ruthless!"
After saying this, he didn't give everyone a chance to react at all, so he was led by the white comrade, and walked into the gate of the City Lord's Mansion of the Six Tiger City alone.
......
"Who is the surname of this city now?" Walking on the streets of the Six Tiger City, Wei looked at the army stationed not far away, the military flag embroidered with the word "Yan" swaying, and couldn't help but ask softly.
Originally, according to Wei Lai's original plan, Xu Yue and the others and the army of more than 1,000 people he brought would enter the city together, but Ji Huanxi stopped everyone and only let everyone wait outside the city. Xu Yue and the others were naturally very dissatisfied with her actions, and the two sides were arguing outside the city gate for a while, seeing that a conflict was about to break out, and finally Wei Lai gave an order and agreed to the matter.
Although everyone was worried in their hearts, no one could change Wei Lai's mind after all, and in the end, they could only let him and Ji Huanxi enter the Six Tiger City together.
Hearing this, Ji Huanxi also looked sideways at the fluttering military flag not far away, smiled slightly, and continued to walk forward, saying in his mouth: "It is rumored that in the place where the Six Tiger City was located, there were demon tigers running rampant, killing nearby residents. A warrior came out and joined forces with the nearby villagers to hunt down the six demon tigers who were causing trouble. ”
"And after these united villagers hunted the demon tiger, they decided to live together, and help each other in any difficult matter in the future, just like they killed the demon tiger today. ”
They built a castle on the site of the Demon Tiger, and in order to commemorate this event and warn future generations, they named this place the Six Tiger City. The purpose is to tell future generations that no matter how big the trouble is, as long as the people's hearts want, they can overcome everything. ”
"The Six Tiger City is still the Six Tiger City, and the admonitions of that year are still engraved in their ancestral ancestral hall. These Six Tiger Cities are naturally still the Six Tiger Cities of the people of Six Tiger Cities, how can anyone follow whose surname. ”
Wei Lai was noncommittal when he heard this, and he continued to follow Ji Huanxi towards the front. He said, "Since I have come here, can Miss Ji tell me who the girl is on." ”
Ji Huanxi's body trembled obviously, and after a few breaths of silence, he said, "Isn't the current scene able to solve the doubts in the heart of His Royal Highness King Wei?"
Wei Lai shook his head, stood still, looked at Ji Huanxi with straight eyes, and said word by word: "I want to hear you tell me the answer in person." ”
"Is there a difference?" Ji Huanxi glanced up at Wei Lai and asked, but before Wei Lai could react, he turned around and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion in the distance again, and during the whole process, the troops stationed here in the distance all looked at them from afar, and no one stopped them, as if they also understood how noble the identity of the woman in front of them was, far from being an existence that they could anger.
Wei Lai stepped forward to follow, and Ji Huanxi's voice sounded in his ears again at this time.
"Has Your Highness heard of the battle for the throne of Yan Ting?"
"Are you talking about the dispute between Yuan Zhichun and the fifth prince Yuan Yu?" Wei Lai asked rhetorically, this question was somewhat strange to him, after all, he had personally participated in this matter, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had also died at his hands, how could he not have heard of it?
Ji Huanxi also saw some clues from the look on Wei Lai's face, she smiled bitterly and lowered her head and said, "I'm not sure which of the memories in my mind are true and which are false, so with this question, please don't mind Your Highness." ”
When Wei Lai heard this, his heart trembled. He was particularly sensitive to the truth and falsity of his memory, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but look up at Ji Huanxi more.
That Golden Queen was already a master of using this way, and even Wei Liufang, who was the Great Sage of the Eight Sects, was toyed with by her, and it was not impossible for her to use this method to deal with Ji Huanxi. If it was just because the reason was changed, so Ji Huanxi did such a thing, Wei Lai would be more able to accept such a fact-after all, even at this time, Wei Lai couldn't understand what he should do to her if everything was done by Ji Huanxi.
Ji Huanxi obviously couldn't think about Wei Lai's thoughts.
She continued, "Has His Highness seen the Fifth Prince?"
This question made Wei Lai stunned for a moment, and then he shook his head and said, "I have only heard of his name, but I have never had the honor to meet him." ”
Speaking of this, Wei Lai couldn't help but think of the time when he first met Wei Liufang, the Eight Gates Great Sage had mentioned that he came to rescue Wei Lai and was entrusted by the Five Princes. As we all know, the five princes are from Jin Yun'er, and the princelings of Yanting have been fighting with the Jin family over the years, in order to put this fifth prince on the throne, and how can he help Wei Lai? This question has been bothering Wei Lai, at this moment Ji Huanxi's question fell on Wei Lai's ears, Wei Lai simply took this opportunity to ask: "But speaking of which, the five princes still have a life-saving grace for me, if Miss Ji has the opportunity to meet, don't forget to thank me." ”
Hearing this, Ji Huanxi frowned slightly, then stood still, looked straight at Wei Lai, and said word by word: "I am ...... Yuan Yu. ”
"Huh?"
Wei Lai thought a lot about Ji Huanxi, whether she was bewitched by interests, or was she coerced by some unavoidable coercion before she did such a thing. For this reason, he made many calculations in his heart, but this was the only thing he never thought of.
And Wei Lai's reaction, Ji Huanxi had expected it.
"When the queen mother married her father, Ling Zhao Niangniang had already died of illness, and there was no owner in the harem, so the queen mother naturally had the idea of being the queen. But the rules of the Yan Court, His Royal Highness should know that there must be an heir under his knees to be the queen. But it's a pity that I'm not angry, I was born as a daughter. My mother changed everyone's memory with the method of cause and effect, from the servant maids to the internal officials and even my father, they all thought I was a man. After the age of three, in order to prevent the matter from being revealed, the queen mother, who had just ascended to the throne of God, announced to the public that she had sent me to Wei Liufang's place as an apprentice, but in fact I lived by her side under the name of Ji Huanxi, became her confidant, and did all kinds of things for her. It was only when there was some need that he appeared as the fifth prince. In fact, not only His Royal Highness, but also the entire Yan Court has really seen Yuan Yu, there are very few people, and sometimes I can't even tell myself, whether I am Ji Huanxi or the fifth prince Yuan Yu. ”
Ji Huanxi said with a wry smile, and the expression on his face couldn't help but have a bitter taste.
It was also the first time Wei Lai had heard of such a thing, and it took him a lot of effort to digest the news, and then he looked at Ji Huanxi, and was about to say something.
But at this moment, the gloomy color on Ji Huanxi's face suddenly dissipated, and she smiled and said, "Lied to you." ”
"I am the prince of Yanting, whether I like everything my mother does or not, in the end, she will hand over this Yanting to me. ”
"How can there be a reason for one's own prince to betray one's own court, and how can there be a reason for one's own child to betray one's mother? Your Highness, are you right?"
"So, who am I serving for, Your Highness should not ask such a question again. ”
