Chapter 271: City Lord Shen Poison

"You can understand it as a water that quenches your thirst. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info," Song Yan explained.

"Thank you, Childe. ”

Princess Jade Fox took the Coke bottle, took a small sip, and immediately felt a bubble explode in her mouth, the wonderful feeling was indescribable, and at the same time, a pair of eyes became shiny.

In the end, Princess Jade Fox only ate half of the bread and drank half a bottle of Coke.

Song Yan didn't expose her little caution, waved her hand, and signaled that she could go.

The next day, the team continued on the road.

The closer you get to the border, the more barren the surrounding scenery becomes, revealing a bleak autumn day.

Song Yan, who was riding on a horse, yawned and felt bored, for some reason, he always had the feeling of playing a real game, and people who looked at this world were like NPCs.

Suddenly, Song Yan felt a pair of slightly timid eyes secretly watching him in the carriage, even if he didn't look back, he knew who the owner of those eyes was.

Finally, in the evening, a small city appeared at the end of the earth.

"Song Gongzi, there is Linbian City in front. Meng Bozhao pointed to the city road in front of him, and his resolute and tough face finally had a hint of relief.

"Hmm. ”

Song Yan nodded, signaling that he had seen it.

There are no city walls in the city on the Water Blue Star, and when he sees a city with a city wall, Song Yan still feels relatively novel.

"Who's coming?"

As evening approached, the gates were closed and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

And now is a special period, Linbian is just a lonely city in the Qi country, therefore, seeing this group of people approaching, the soldiers on the city wall are all nervous, and shouted loudly.

The city wall on the border is not high, only about two meters, not to mention Song Yan, even if ordinary people want to climb over, if it is not close to the border fortress, this small city may have been conquered by the Yan and Zhao coalition forces a long time ago.

And Meng Bozhao wants to rely on this small city to start a family and restore the country, but it can only be said that the ideal is plump, but the reality is very skinny.

Meng Bozhao grabbed the reins of his horse and shouted loudly to the soldiers on the city wall: "I am Meng Bozhao, the Yangwu general personally appointed by His Majesty the King of Qi, escorting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Princess here, I order you to go and report as soon as possible, so that Shen Poison will come to meet you!"

The soldiers on the city wall were shocked when they heard that it was His Royal Highness the Prince, but the biggest one defending the city was only a hundred cavalry commanders, and he did not have the right to open the city gate, so he shouted to Meng Bozhao: "It turned out to be General Meng, please wait for a while, and the small one will go to report to the city lord." ”

"Then hurry up, delay His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to enter the city, ask you!" Meng Bozhao said coldly.

General Yangwu is a five-rank military position, and can command 5,500 soldiers, and Linbian is only a county town, and the city lord is only a seven-rank official, so the hundred cavalry commanders who defend the city do not dare to be the slightest slack, and immediately send someone to inform the city lord of Shen Poison.

Castle Lord's Mansion.

The lord of the city, Shen Poison, is meeting with a distinguished guest.

The distinguished guest was a middle-aged scribe, dressed in a wide brocade robe, and behind him stood two powerful men with swords, although they were not wearing armor, but judging from their calloused palms, they should be in the army.

"How did Brother Shen think about it?" asked the middle-aged scribe with a smile.

"...... this?" a look of hesitation flashed in Shen Poison's eyes.

The middle-aged scribe's face turned cold: "Brother Shen is still hesitating about something, now that the Qi State has been destroyed, the border is just a lonely city, and the soldiers and horses are less than a thousand, if you surrender to my Zhao State now, you can be regarded as a meritorious minister, otherwise, when my Zhao State army arrives, let me ask, Brother Shen, what do you use to resist? Just rely on your 1,000 soldiers? At that time, you will be a prisoner!"

Hearing Tu Xiu's coercion and temptation, the struggling color in Shen Xuan's eyes became even stronger.

At this moment, a personal entourage came to report: "City Lord, there is a person outside the city who claims to be General Yangwu to escort His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Princess here, and let you go out of the city to pick you up!"

Hearing the words of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Princess, the middle-aged scribe's eyes couldn't help but light up: "Brother Shen, your opportunity to make great contributions has arrived, if you surrender to sincerity with the head of the crown prince of Qi State, the king of my family will definitely be happy with the Sacred Heart, but it is absolutely not a problem to increase the official and enter the knighthood!"

"If this is absolutely not possible, then I will not become a sinner in the Qi Kingdom!" Shen Xuan waved his hand again and again.

"Humph!"

Tu Xiu snorted dissatisfiedly: "Shen poison, don't toast or eat and drink, now, the Qi country has not perished, where did the Qi country come from, I'm not afraid to tell you, my Zhao country's army is only a hundred miles away from here, and at most two days can be under the city, when the time comes, you will have no chance to surrender to Cheng, and you, as the city lord, will not be able to save your life, and your head will be cut off as a military achievement!" Speaking of this, Tu Xiu's tone has become extremely harsh: "I will ask you again, do you cooperate with the prince of Qi to take down Toucheng in Xia, or do you resist stubbornly?" Don't forget, your family is in the city, and as soon as the army enters the city, your family will also become the soul of the sword, and as for the residents of this city, I am afraid that they will also suffer from the disaster of soldiers and horses, can you really bear to see your family and your people die innocently!"

Tu Xiu's words made Shen Poison sweat profusely and his face pale.

His family and the residents of the city flashed in his mind, and finally nodded and bowed to Tu Xiu: "Thank you Brother Tu for reminding me to surrender to the Zhao Kingdom, but I have a request, can you leave the prince alive?"

"Okay! The prince of Qi State will not kill him for the time being, and leave it to the king to deal with!" This time, Tu Xiu agreed very happily, and a trace of pride flashed at the corner of his mouth.

Outside the city.

Song Yan and his entourage were waiting for Shen Yao to come and pick them up.

It's just that half an hour has passed, and Shen Poison is still in the future.

Suddenly, Song Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, but he sensed that a large number of people were approaching the city gate, and the perspective eye opened, and found that there were no less than a thousand soldiers gathered behind the city gate.

His wisdom is monstrous, and after a little thought, he guessed that the city lord here should have turned against the water, and ambushed his people behind the city gate, I am afraid that he plans to catch turtles in an urn.

For a while, his heart sank slightly, but he decided to wait and see what happened for the time being, although there were thousands of soldiers, but he wanted to leave, but he couldn't stop him.

Besides, Linbian City is the only city in Qi Kingdom, how can it be gone?

"Crunch!"

The two city gates opened, and a pair of centaurs quickly walked out of the city, and it was Shen Poison who took the lead.

"Xiaguan Shen is late to take over the poison, and I also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Princess to atone for his sins!"

With a pop, Shen Poison led everyone to kneel in front of the carriage.

The curtain of the car was opened, revealing the immature face of the crown prince Jiang Dan, his small hand was raised in mid-air, and he said to Shen Poison: "Flat." ”

"His Royal Highness Prince Xie!" Shen Poison then got up and saw Jiang Dan and Jade Fox in the carriage, and a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes, but he was immediately replaced by hardness.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered someone to prepare the mansion, and respectfully invites His Highness to enter the city to rest. ”

"Lord Shen, hard work!" Jiang Dan lowered the curtain again.

"Escort the prince into the city!"

Meng Bozhao gave an order, and more than fifty soldiers escorted the carriage towards the city, while the corners of Tu Xiu's mouth, who was standing next to Shen Poison, rose slightly, looking extremely proud.
