Chapter 59: Into the City
There will be a little less update in the past two days, and it is better to decide to take the little meat bun back to your side.
------Off topic------
When Xiao Chi heard this, he seemed to be very happy, and tilted his head slightly to look at her: "Brother Ye Bai, do you also think I am beautiful, then do you like my dress, this is the wedding dress that Grandma prepared for me, I specially wore it to greet you today." ”
Akiba Bai looked at her and smiled slightly: "Yes, Xiaoike, you are becoming more and more beautiful." ”
The girl raised her head and looked at her, her big empty black eyes were completely out of focus, but she seemed to be able to see her, and looked at Qiu Yebai quietly for a while, and then also showed a beautiful smile: "Brother Ye Bai, you are really getting better and better, I almost can't recognize you." ”
She looked at the girl in costume for a moment with the big empty eyes, and then rode out alone, walked not far in front of the girl, and said lightly: "Xiao Chi, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?" ”
Qiu Yebai also naturally found the person in front of her, but after her gaze swept over Gu Wei, she finally stopped at the girl who was holding a bright red umbrella in front of Gu Wei, wearing a delicate red and blue colored Miao embroidered dress, and wearing silver ornaments on her head.
Lu Wei also came this time, he was still a pioneer, and after entering the city gate, he led a few people to escort before Qiu Yebai, he recognized these Gu guards, so as soon as he saw the Gu guards, he immediately pulled the reins, and stopped his pace of progress a little nervously, as soon as he stopped, all the people behind him stopped.
The strange tie-dye Miao clothes and the weird tattoos on their faces all show that these people are the legendary Gu Wei.
They walked along the road for a while, and saw the same group of Miao people in costume waiting for them in the middle of the road not far away.
After entering the city, they found that the Miao army did not let them disarm as they expected, but allowed them to carry weapons through the city.
When Li Mu heard this, he immediately nodded: "Don't worry, my lord." ”
This time, the leader of the negotiation delegation was Li Mu, the representative of Baili Lingfeng.
She lowered her head and whispered to Li Mu beside her: "Be careful, but don't overreact, observe carefully, you and the people you brought have been stationed in Xiangjun, remember to observe if there are any flaws." ”
As soon as Akiba Bai entered the city gate, he could feel the hostile and disgusted eyes from all sides, but there were also many fearful eyes.
Let's say that in Xiangjun City, there is also a strange atmosphere at the moment.
……*……*……*……*……
"Yes!"
Baili Lingfeng's figure was stunned, and when he raised his head, his expression had already recovered from his usual coldness: "It's nothing, go back to the big tent and prepare for the arrangement, once the Miao people dare to act rashly, we will set foot in Xiangjun!" ”
"Handsome?" The guard next to him asked in a low voice.
He looked down at his hand, which was obviously supposed to be a brotherly clapp, but there seemed to be that soft and slender touch on his hand, but it seemed to inexplicably turn into a sultry itch, which made him a little uneasy.
Baili Lingfeng sighed lightly, this is temporarily safe.
When Akiba Bai led her men and horses to disappear into the city gate, and there was no unusual sound, all the generals and soldiers outside the city breathed a sigh of relief.
The men and horses behind her also rode their horses to follow.
She looked at the corner of the man's lips with a gentle and indifferent smile, and when she saw the man in white bowing slightly, she turned around and directly spurred her horse to the hole to open a gap that only allowed one person and one horse to pass through guò, as if she was not worried at all that there would be a deadly trap behind the door.
The man in white was riding on a horse, surrounded by a group of dragon guards who seemed to be ordinary soldiers, and their natural aura made the people around them subconsciously dare not approach, revealing a vacuum.
Autumn Leaf White was quietly looking at the man in white standing in the distance through thousands of troops and horses, heavy crowds, and at this moment.
Li Mu was stunned at first, then raised his hand and clenched his fists, and said with a solemn expression: "Yes, I will not disgrace my life!" ”
"Protect Lord Qiu, this is an order." Baili Lingfeng looked at Li Mu, and his gaze suddenly became extremely sharp.
Baili Lingfeng and Autumn Leaf Bai glanced at each other and parted their hands.
"Dashuai, it's time." Li Mu rode over and looked at Baili Lingfeng.
The two clasped their hands, as if the knots that had wanted to kill each other had dissipated in the blazing sun of southern Xinjiang at this moment.
Baili Lingfeng held her soft twing, her expression was a little complicated, and finally she smiled: "Victory, success!" ”
Akiba Bai looked at his hand resting on his shoulder, and then raised his hand to high-five him in mid-air, and then shook hands: "May we start victorious!" ”
But no matter what, he understands that his responsibility cannot be allowed to let his gang do as he pleases.
What he had just said was from the bottom of his heart, and at the moment when he finally decided to let her go, his thoughts were to go with him, but he didn't know whether he was worried about her comfort, or if he wanted to go and meet Rong Naiya, who had ruined his business in southern Xinjiang for many years.
After a while, he suddenly stretched out his hand to her, his eyes burning: "No matter what the result is, whether it can be as our plan wishes, you must come back safely!" ”
His heart was inexplicably abrupt, as if his heart was beating a beat.
Baili Lingfeng was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the person in front of him who was dressed in a gorgeous celebrant dark silver embroidered golden mountain and sea water flying fish suit, wearing a three-mountain embroidered gold crown, and the whole person looked beautiful and unparalleled under the sun, and the brilliance was so brilliant that people didn't dare to look at it.
Qiu Yebai turned his head and saw the faint worry between his eyebrows, and smiled slightly: "Dashuai, rest assured, under the heavy siege of Feige Mountain, I still dare to break alone, not to mention that this elephant county was originally the county of my empire." ”
When she was less than 100 meters away from the city gate, Baili Lingfeng suddenly pulled the reins and called her: "Ye Bai, if you can, Ben Shuai is willing to go with you." ”
At the forefront of the horses were the commander of the three armies, Baili Lingfeng, and the overseer Qiu Yebai, and they were surrounded by shield soldiers, all of whom were well-trained to hold their shields high to prevent the Miao army on the city wall from sneaking up.
A horseman rode out of the middle of the black ironclad soldiers.
But the atmosphere in and out of the city was unusually tense and weird.
The Hunting Black Dragon Banner slowly receded like a tide under the Elephant County, revealing a blank area of about a mile near the city gate, and correspondingly, all the bows and arrows that were originally full of arrow holes at the head of the Elephant County disappeared at the head of the city.
……*……*……*……
Jiucui wiped her tears and said lightly: "Okay, go and prepare, soon the Han army envoy will arrive." ”
Ji Xiang quickly bowed his head after realizing it, not daring to say more.
But Ruyi on the side immediately pulled her sleeve and signaled her to stop talking, and her own young lady was obviously touched because Miss Jiu Hairpin called her sister again.
"Miss, Miss Jiu Hairpin is always so willful and ignorant, she is already very aggrieved when she married those Han people with three wives and four concubines, Miss, you may still be a concubine, she doesn't know how much ...... you sacrificed for her." Jixiang watched his young lady cry and couldn't help complaining.
Jiucui looked at her back, sighed lightly, her eyes were slightly red, and tears fell from her face.
After speaking, Jiu Hairpin bit his lip and turned around and left.
"Nine hairpins...... You....... She wanted to say something, but saw that Jiu Hairpin suddenly turned her face away, and said stiffly: "If that man is not good...... That eighth prince asked you to be a concubine, you don't want to go! ”
Is this the second time Jiu Hairpin has called her sister?
Jiucui listened to her words, and was instantly stunned, and looked at Jiu Hairpin in disbelief.
She paused, but still said: "You are the smartest woman in our Miao Jiang, the most pampered daughter of my father, and my ...... Sister. ”
Jiu Hairpin looked a little excited and said: "So what, now that southern Xinjiang is ours, you don't want to grow other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige, if you want to marry the prince of the Han people, you must marry the princess in the past, you are our ......." ”
If it weren't for the fact that someone blocked the news of the Miaojiang uprising for them, the Eighth Prince was trapped in the forbidden palace again, and Long Wei was transferred to the eastern province of Guangdong by the Du family's people early, they would not have had the opportunity to occupy southern Xinjiang.
Jiucui looked at her, hesitated for a while, and smiled helplessly: "The Han people respect Confucian orthodoxy, have always respected themselves, and attach great importance to the theory of bloodline. ”
The nine hairpins were a little rude in tone, which made the faces of both Jixiang and Ruyi not very good.
Jiu Hairpin looked at her and said coldly, "You haven't answered my question yet." ”
"Nine hairpins, why are you here?"
Jiu Cui immediately turned her head to look at the girl who was standing not far behind her at some point, with almost identical facial features to herself.
"Yes, how could you marry just a concubine!" A slightly shrill voice sounded behind the three of them.
"What, how is this possible, Miss, you must be a princess when you marry, you are the golden phoenix of our Miao Jiang, the pearl of the king's palm, and our smartest princess, how can you be a concubine for the Han people!" Ji Xiang's eyes widened instantly, and his face was incredulous.
Jiucui shook her head, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "No, you don't understand, it's not a question of whether I am willing to be a princess or not, even if they agree to peace talks, the conditions must be very harsh, after all, we are in a weak position, not to mention that even if the eighth prince agrees to marry me, I will only be a concubine in the past, and my father still hopes that I can become a princess, isn't it ridiculous?" ”
"What is the young lady worried about, since the eighth prince has agreed to the peace talks, at least it means that your plan is effective, or do you not want to marry a Han person as a princess?" Ruyi guessed.
"It's fine, it's just that my father and the others are imagining things too rosy." Jiucui sighed lightly.
Ever since the young lady came up with ideas for King Rongnaiya and Princess Geshu, she has been a little sullen all day.
"Miss, you seem to be in a bad mood?" Seeing Jiucui's appearance, Jixiang asked with some concern.
As soon as she stepped out of the door of the council room, she saw Jixiang and Ruyi greet her together.
Jiu Cui looked at the excited ministers in the hall, but her expression darkened, and she sighed secretly, and then found a reason to leave the council hall.
The generals all laughed and complimented Rong Naiya and Jiucui again.
After Rong Naiya heard this, he quickly reacted: "Oh, what the prime minister said is that if this king's Jiucui can marry Baili Lingfeng, according to the momentum of his heavy army now, my Jiucui is indeed very likely to become the queen of the empire in the future, hahahaha!" ”
The shriveled old man with a goatee sitting near Rong Naiye saw Jiucui's slightly depressed look with sharp eyes, his eyes rolled, and he immediately touched the goat's beard and smiled: "King, this is a bad word, Princess Jiucui is the goddess sent to us by the gods, conveying the compassion of the gods to my Miao Jiang, and the princess will marry the eighth prince of the empire in the future, if he ascends the throne and becomes the emperor of the empire, the princess will be the queen, and she will be able to protect my Miao Jiang for thousands of generations." ”
Jiucui's figure stiffened slightly, lowered his head, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, Father, I disappointed you." ”
Rong Naiya looked at Jiucui, took her little hand, and said with a loving face: "Good daughter, it's a pity, you are not a boy, if you are a boy, we may not need to make peace at all!" ”
Jiucui looked at the bearded man sitting beside him, and smiled slightly: "My father has won the award, and it is all blessed by the gods." ”
The many Miao army generals who were discussing the matter also laughed, and they all complimented Rong Naiya, a girl standing beside him, who was sitting at the top.
The original Xiangjun County Guard's Mansion was filled with middle-aged laughter.
"Oh, the Eight Emperors of the Empire and the Prison Army have all agreed to the peace talks, it's really good, it deserves to be my Jiucui, my first smart woman in Miao Jiang!"
