Chapter 235: Ransom (1)
Seeing that King Ping went out of the city gate, the image disappeared, Zhuang Minhua was stunned and asked the system, "What's the matter?" Why is the image gone? ”
The system was a little weak, and soon became confident again, "Isn't it that the energy is not enough, and it can only display images within the capital." But if you want to look outside the city, it's still the same price, 100 points an hour. ”
"You...... Yes! Profiteer! Zhuang Minhua said fiercely, she pounded the quilt at her feet, "Then I won't look at it." ”
Seeing Zhuang Minhua laughing and annoyed, Qian Hong was worried that her mood swings would be too great, so she startled the little master in her womb, and hurriedly persuaded: "Master, why don't you put this book away and read it after the master gives birth?" It just so happens that the small kitchen stews mushroom tofu crucian carp soup, why don't you use some? ”
Zhuang Minhua casually handed her the book in his hand, "It's okay, it just so happens that this palace is a little hungry." ”
While arranging for someone to go to the small kitchen to pass on food, Qian Hong casually flipped through the book in her hand, "The Book of Flowers"? Qian Hong was at a loss, can a book on how to grow flowers make people laugh and be annoyed when they read it? She didn't know that it was not this book that made Zhuang Minhua laugh and annoyed, and this book was just something she held casually.
The mushroom tofu crucian carp soup was quickly served, and when the lid of the blue and white porcelain soup cup was opened, a fragrant smell suddenly wafted through the room.
Zhuang Minhua's appetite suddenly rose, and he looked at the soup cup with drooling. Qian Hong looked funny, picked up a small jade bowl and filled half of the bowl, and put it in front of Zhuang Minhua, "It's a little hot, the master uses it slowly." ”
Zhuang Minhua used two bowls in one breath to suppress the hunger in his heart, "You all share the rest!" ”
Most of the soup cup is useless! This body has a small appetite. She has always eaten small and frequent meals.
Putting down the spoon, Zhuang Minhua asked Qianhong, "Has the emperor prepared food there?" The emperor works so hard every day, and he has to make up for it, and the palace sees that he has lost weight. ”
Qian Hong smiled: "Don't worry, master, there are preparations every day!"
Zhuang Minhua nodded, there have been really too many things recently, one after another, not only Meng Jinghan was so busy that he couldn't sleep at night, but the group of courtiers under him were all instructed to turn around.
Especially the Ministry of Rites. I heard that the envoys of the Southern Liang and the Western Tang Dynasty were coming. The people of the Ministry of Rites are to arrange their dwellings, to use the people who are called, and so on. They were so busy that they couldn't even eat, and they all complained bitterly!
Zhuang Minhua dusted off the non-existent dust on her dress and laughed at herself, now she is the most leisurely.
If Qianhong and the others heard this, they would have heard it. Surely there will be a refutation. The master is pregnant! It's even more tiring than the grown-ups!
The bearded envoy of the Northern Barbarians was almost angry when he got the news from Meng Jinghan. Does this Jeddah know where he is now? If he hadn't been so dead, if he hadn't been a messenger, he would have been beheaded by the Great Qi Emperor.
Saying. Did Jeddah think of this a long time ago, so he acted so carelessly?
What's even more infuriating is that he didn't disclose any news to him, so he's the right one, right? The bearded envoy of the Northern Barbarians thought hatefully.
As soon as he thought that he was going to redeem the princess, Daqi would ask for three million taels of silver, plus a Jeddah, Daqi would ask for 500,000, was he worth so much silver? The princess's three million taels couldn't be cut down, and he suspected that Daqi didn't want to negotiate peace at all, otherwise why would the price be so high?
Now the decision-making power in his hands can only mobilize three million taels, plus Jeddah, where will he get these 500,000 taels?
The Northern Barbarian Envoy paced back and forth in the room, half a sound, and he made up his mind that if he really couldn't do it, he could only redeem the princess first. Jeddah, just take his life! Or let him pray for the name of the Northern Barbarian Messenger himself, he can keep him from dying, and after he returns, it is not his business whether Mr. Mu saves him or not. After all, the purpose of his coming to Daqi is to be a princess.
"Hand over the fold again and ask to see the Emperor of Great Qi!" The Northern Barbarian envoy weakly ordered his subordinates, and then said, "By the way, I would like to inquire if we can meet Jeddah."
Anyway, he is Mr. Mu's person, and if he has any last words, he can also help bring them back.
When Meng Jinghan heard that he wanted to see that Jeddah, he thought about it, waved his hand, and let him see him. I heard that the Northern Barbarian Emissary is already planning to abandon the Jeddah Lord, let them meet him, maybe Jida can persuade the Northern Barbarian Emissary to save him! What's more, Jeddah may go to find someone to help through the Northern Barbarian Emissary, so he will follow behind, and he will be able to catch one by one.
The prison was dark, and the air was filled with a cold stench. Jeddah was kept alone in a cell, and the other five, even him, did not know where they were held.
Jeddah was bored with a straw mat made from the dead grass on the ground, and he was about to weave another straw pillow when he heard footsteps outside.
Jeddah stopped what he was doing and looked outside, and the person who came was indeed the bearded messenger he had guessed, and he smiled at the bearded man.
The bearded messenger didn't even look at him, but stuffed a silver ticket of fifty taels from the jailer who led him in, and the jailer went out with a smile.
The bearded messenger looked at the four of Jeddah fixedly for a long time, and Gilda laughed, "What? Flowers on my face? Do you want to see me like that? ”
The bearded envoy snorted coldly, "You don't have flowers on your face, you have flowers in your heart, you dare to do this kind of thing, do you really think this is a Northern Barbarian?" This is Daqi! ”
Jida smiled bitterly, "I also know that this is Daqi, but there is no way, the holy relic of Daqi is also needed by Beiban." Anyway, for the sake of the North Barbarians, I have to give it a try. Even if I lose, I am the envoy of the Northern Barbarians, and Daqi can't kill me. If it is done, it will be beneficial to the north for a thousand years! ”
"Hmph, it's a pity you've failed now." Hearing that Jida was for the Northern Barbarians, the bearded envoy's face softened a little, and he quickly said stupidly: "The Emperor of Great Qi asked for 500,000 taels of silver to redeem you, but I don't have so much silver to redeem you." If you want to get out, you'll have to figure it out yourself. You see if you have any relatives and friends in Jinzhou, you name it, and I will help you borrow it. ”
Jeddah smiled bitterly again, what relatives and friends can he have in Jinzhou, but if he can redeem it, it's just 500,000 taels a little much! Where do you go to find this money?
The bearded man can mobilize a maximum of three million in his hand, which is just enough to redeem the princess, and he can only find a way. He looked up and asked the bearded messenger, "Do you know where the five people with me are?" ”
The bearded messenger sneered, "You still think about them? You can't protect yourself! I don't know where you got the two Great Qi people, anyway, I know that the Great Qi Emperor will definitely not spare that Great Qi person, so don't think about them. As for the other three of us, the ransom is 10,000, and I have already asked people to ransom them. (To be continued.) )
