Chapter Eighty-Seven: Today's Emperor Song Exchanges My Flag!
After writing and uploading, I found that the number of words was too small, and now I really don't have the energy to subtract or add, so I go back and make up for it.
------Off topic------
……
"Your opponent is me, ma'am."
He said:
His smile was still the same, a little ghostly, and his tone was relaxed and soft in the golden autumn wind.
On the blue-gray plate stack, Yelu Qi stood in the autumn sun, her silver-black clothes fluttered in a flying arc, and the long sword in her hand was straight and condensed, a stream of autumn water, condescending, aimed at her eyebrows.
Opposite side.
She paused, then slowly turned around.
Xu Pingran raised his eyebrows, his eyes showed a trace of anger, his body was about to turn, and he was about to give this woman who didn't know the height of the sky a memory that she would never forget, when she suddenly felt a cold behind her, and the murderous aura was awe-inspiring on all sides, like a chaotic rain.
Jing Hengbo didn't give up, and his figure appeared behind Zou Zheng in a flash, and he grabbed it again.
The two slender figures split in a flash, red and white shadows staggered, their respective skirts flying, Zou Zheng was staggered by the swirling air flow of the two women, and hurriedly retreated behind Xu Pingran.
"yes, then I'm going to try." Jing Hengbo's laughter was lazy and long.
"You are a little cunning," Xu Pingran sneered with a smile on the corner of his lips, and said lightly, "It's a pity that I'm here, no matter how you come, it's a dead end." ”
The white shadow flashed, Xu Pingran appeared, and with a flick of his fingertips, the snow-white fingers were flicked away.
At this time, Jing Hengbo was slashing at Zou Zheng.
The silver-black figure flew like a goose, crossed half of the moat, climbed the rope, jumped into the hanging basket, and then jumped up through the hanging basket, and when the soldiers on the city wall hurriedly cut the hanging basket rope in the urgent order of the general to "cut the hanging basket", he had already appeared at the head of the city.
Pei Shu, who was one step slower and was attacked by a hidden weapon and then pulled back, was angry and scolded: "Yeluqi, you traitor!" ”
The voice came out here, and under the banner under the city over there, two figures shot out, one of them took a step faster, and he didn't look back at his hand, and the golden light flashed in the sky, and the other person was forced to turn back with a fight, and he had already been pulled back by the general, shouting "Young marshal!" ”
Still that lazy and hoarse voice, he smiled: "Peel off the skin and look at what kind of goods!" ”
But there was already an extra hand on his chest, snow-white and slender, with slender fingertips, and his movements were light but extremely precise, and the splitting hand grabbed at the placket of his clothes.
Zou Zheng hadn't heard this voice, but his intuition was not good, and he was about to retreat with a bang in his heart.
The voice is lazy, slightly hoarse, and the tail note is slightly raised.
Before the general could answer with a funny smile, someone suddenly laughed: "Is it? If I cut you in half at this time, I think it's a good thing. ”
Seeing that the hanging basket was halfway up, he turned his head and smiled at the generals beside him: "If the hanging rope is cut at this time, Her Majesty will be broken into a meat patty, which is also a beautiful thing." ”
Seeing that the queen really sat on the hanging basket, she was slowly hoisted up, and the hanging basket continued to rise, and his hanging heart slowly lowered.
He stared at the queen's pace, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't see what was wrong, and laughed in his heart that he was too nervous, and quietly wiped the sweat from his palm on the placket.
He was overjoyed, and hurriedly summoned the soldiers to clean up the corpse as soon as possible, and a row of soldiers stood in front of the city wall, preparing crossbows and drawing bows, aiming at the queen in the hanging basket, so as not to make a sudden attack after she went to the city.
His mind was still under the city, and he turned his gaze back to see that Jing Hengbo had dismounted, his red clothes fluttering, bowing his head slightly, and he was walking towards the hanging basket that put down the city wall.
Zou Zheng was a little surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but glance at the soldier's corpse, except that the bones in his throat were shattered, and it looked like he was suddenly strangled by a giant snake, there was nothing abnormal about the corpse, and he didn't know how this kind of cold woman who was used to seeing death could lose her color because of this corpse.
The woman with an astonishing calm bearing had been moving since she came to the city, but at this moment, she suddenly stepped forward and stared at the dead soldier, her face changed slightly.
Zou Zheng didn't step forward when the chaos started, and subconsciously shrank behind the soldiers, and then he glanced at Xu Pingran out of the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but be stunned.
The crowd was in an uproar, and some people rushed to the side of the city wall to look down, only to vaguely see a long black shadow, like a snake and much larger than the snake, slipping and flicking into the grass under the city and disappearing.
When they chased after him, they saw the soldier leaning limply against the wall, his neck hanging limply, and when he touched his throat bone, it was broken.
The sound was so fierce that everyone turned their heads, and they saw a black shadow passing behind a soldier leaning against the back wall, and a long tail-like leg could be faintly seen, and some mottled scales shone in the sunlight. Flashes are gone.
Suddenly, someone in the city exclaimed, "What a thing! Then there was a loud noise, a scream, "Ah! ”
Just when Jing Hengbo was about to dismount before he got off the horse, everyone's eyes were fixed on her.
The general hurriedly went to make arrangements, and Zou Zheng told Jing Hengbo what he meant, and seeing that she had no objections, she seemed to be ready to dismount, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Zou Zheng hurriedly said to the generals defending the city: "You can't open the city gate and put the drawbridge, arrange the hanging basket to lower the moat, and let the queen come up in the hanging basket." ”
Zou Zheng was a little surprised, he didn't expect Jing Hengbo to be really willing to go into the city alone to negotiate, and hurriedly glanced at Xu Pingran, the woman's snow-white skirt was quiet, without expression and movement, and it seemed to have nothing to do with her.
It seemed that she was going to die, and everyone was with her.
The army was silent, and no one was moved by her decision, and no one dissuaded her.
"Okay, I'll do it."
The bright red flag was flying, half-blocking Jing Hengbo's face, she tilted her head slightly, as if she was listening to something, and then she smiled softly.
The armor was indeed the armor, he had already experimented, and the dagger of a hundred refined steel could not be slashed in the slightest, which gave him the courage to go up to the city and face these terrible women.
Zou Zheng stroked his chest, thinking that at this critical time, husband and wife are still husband and wife, Mingcheng still understands the overall situation after all, in this great wilderness, isn't it himself who can rely on her for his life.
Her voice was as gentle as a March drizzle, "This is the treasure treasure treasure in the palace, I have been hiding it for a long time, and now I will give it to you, you have to cherish your life, with you, there is me." ”
Under the robe, there was a protective soft armor, which Mingcheng personally put on for him this morning. Because of all the complicated things, the husband and wife who have not been together for a long time, this morning is a rare affection, Mingcheng's fingers gently brushed under his chin, and tied the ribbon of the soft armor.
He pressed his chest as a sign of vow, and his fingers were hard to the touch, reassuring him.
Zou Zheng listened, only felt that there must be room for the woman to ask such a thing, and glanced at Xu Pingran again, and said: "I will tell you the truth when I enter the city, you can rest assured, I can swear here that I will never hurt your life!" ”
Her tone was desolate, as if she was looking at Zou Zheng, and seemed to be looking beyond the clouds through him, this sentence seemed to be a question, but it was only like asking about the clouds on the edge of the sky, the endless sky.
After a long time, Jing Hengbo said slowly: "Gong Yin, why do you treat me like this?" ”
Jing Hengbo seemed to be stunned, and didn't answer for a long time, Zou Zheng stared at her figure, and his heart was anxious like boiling porridge.
Zou Zheng glanced at Xu Pingran behind him, gritted his teeth and said: "Emperor Song City is strong, and there is a jade dragon to protect it, you are only a tired army, how can you resist my Xiongcheng?" I know you're unwilling, but as long as you abandon your weapons and enter the city, and talk to me, you and the Halberd Army will have a way out, how about it? ”
Jing Hengbo raised his voice and sneered, "I have led the rebels to the city, how do you want me to restrain my horse from the precipice?" ”
In order to prevent Jing Hengbo from desperately trying to stop hope, he pointed to the city, "It's not too late to rein in the precipice." ”
He stepped forward and ordered someone to pass the word, "If you want to see me, bind yourself to see me!" I'll give you an explanation! ”
If she can be persuaded to change her mind, not only will the siege of Emperor Ge be solved, but the threat of the inexplicable woman behind her must not exist.
The fist under the wide sleeves couldn't help but clench again.
Zou Zheng waved his hand, and a glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in his heart, it is said that the Queen of Black Water and Gong Yin had a very personal relationship at the beginning, and at this moment she ordered Chang Chi to go thousands of miles to the Emperor Song City because of a piece of paper, but this kind of crazy behavior, doesn't it show that the woman's mind is not dead? This is to ask her face to face to make a clear posture, if you can persuade her to change her mind......
The general's color changed, "Bold traitor, dare to call His Majesty by name!" ”
"Gong Yin, you come to see me."
Jing Hengbo looked up. But he didn't look at the general who was shouting clichés.
"Queen of Blackwater! You are my minister of the Great Wilderness, how can you usurp and rebel and wave your troops under the city of Emperor Ge? Why don't you quickly retreat and tie yourself up in front of Your Majesty? Do you really want these 100,000 tigers to be buried under this majestic city because of your ambition and arrogance?! ”
This made him irritable and turned his head away from her. Signaled the general defending the city to step forward and shout to the city.
The strange woman also came. He delayed in every possible way, but she didn't seem to be in a hurry, as if she was sure that he would hand over the throne.
Zou Zheng's fist under his sleeve was clenched tightly, and he once again had that uncontrollable feeling of being helpless, but this moment was not the time to pursue or get angry at all, it could only expose his incompetence, he turned his eyes back, and saw the wide white skirt that was far behind the city wall, and his heart couldn't help twitching.
The soldiers on all sides looked at each other, but no one could answer, and the garrison officer was stunned—he had never received an order to change the flag.
At the moment when the Heng Halberd army arrived, this situation made him even more embarrassed, isn't this Di Ge himself showing weakness and waiting for others to make up the flag?
However, at this moment, the three flags are still there, the queen's flag is in tatters, and his flag is not at all!
He clearly remembered that not long after he ascended the throne, he had ordered the queen's flag to be canceled, and only two flags were left at the head of the city, one was the golden phoenix flag of the founding queen, and the other was the golden dragon flag he designed for himself.
He was stunned and couldn't help but be furious, "What's going on with this flag?" ”
He breathed a sigh of relief, so as not to be too affected, he simply turned his gaze away, and then he saw the Three Banners of Emperor Ge.
A natural stunner, that's it.
Perhaps, this man all over the city thinks that she is looking at herself and laughing, right?
He laughed dumbly.
Turning his head again, most of the soldiers at the head of the city were staring at the corner of the red clothes, and the faces of those young people were showing yearning looks.
The feeling made his heart tremble—could she see something? No, it's so far away, it's impossible!
Lazy, diagonally, fingers on the reins, smiling at him.
From a distance, it was clear that he couldn't see the face clearly, but Zou Zheng suddenly felt that the woman seemed to be laughing.
The combination of iron and blood and softness is obviously not harmonious, but at this moment, it makes people's hearts move, as if they see the blood-stained blade provoking a ray of bright morning glow.
Under the umbrella of Huang Luo, Zou Zheng saw the army below at a glance, and his heart tightened. In front of the ten thousand troops, dressed in fiery red, needless to say is the famous and almost legendary Queen of Black Water, Jing Hengbo. I can't see my face clearly from such a distance, but the woman's posture is always different, at the moment when the two armies are facing each other, she still doesn't wear armor, she sits on the horse and sits slightly at will, her big red silk robe and slightly curly black hair fluttering in the wind, and the hard lines of the armor behind her are just engraved, and she is soft and lazy like a bright red ribbon.
Although he became the emperor, the man was still dressed in white, and he didn't seem to want the change of identity to erase the most distinctive personal characteristics that belonged to him.
Jing Hengbo remained motionless, staring at the somewhat vague slender figure under Huang Luo's umbrella.
The Halberd Army also made a low noise, and his eyes were focused on Jing Hengbo, waiting for her to give an order.
The emperor himself has come to the city.
There was a sudden movement on the city wall, the soldiers were strengthening the city defense, running in a hurry, far away from the city, Huang Luo umbrella cover all the way up to the city.
At this moment, this mighty emperor song, the majestic army, the reckless wilderness, no one knows what she is thinking.
Obviously empty, Jing Hengbo raised his head, faced the sun, stared at the position, the sunlight was so fierce, slowly drying the puddle of inexplicable liquid under her eyes.
The imperial song flag, which was printed with white mountains and black water, representing the national teacher, was not raised again.
There are no flags there. The bare flagpole was also a cut shorter than the other two, and the cut marks on it were mottled, which she had left behind.
Jing Hengbo's gaze had slowly turned to the Emperor Song Banner on the right.
On her side, Yeluqi suddenly turned his head to look at her, and then at the queen's flag, the light in his eyes flashed, and he sighed slightly.
At this moment, her eyes were complicated—sadness, anger, pain, helplessness, melancholy, desolation...... The light of the early morning has become the sunset in her eyes at this moment, full of the parting and pursuit of the sunset, but there is no excitement and joy that should be.
She just stared at the Queen's flag for a long time, and from the moment she saw it, she seemed to be a little shaken, but the shock was fleeting, and then she calmed down, and looked at the flag carefully, and made sure that the flag was indeed the one she had cut when she left.
Among all the people, only Jing Hengbo, who should have been the most excited, was calm.
"Today's Emperor Song changes my flag!" All the armies roared in unison, the faces of the defenders on the city wall were pale, and the banners were turbulent.
I don't know who was enthusiastic, and shouted loudly, "Today's emperor song changes my flag!" ”
"This flag, sooner or later, I will come and mend it. There is a kind of you who will change, whoever changes, I will kill the whole family in the future! ”
"This fork tells you: I'll be a stupid × today, and you'll all be stupid × the next day!"
"That's my flag, my coat of arms has been engraved, it's this fork!"
The woman's slightly lazy and hoarse voice seemed to echo in everyone's ears and echo over the city.
The moment they saw the remnant flag, the blood in everyone's chest seemed to be ignited - two years ago, the woman fought for her life under the city, and two years later she finally led the army back again, using the enemy's muscles and bones as a line, and the spear of the soldier as a needle, and then replenishing the queen's flag!
However, today under the Emperor Song City, see it again.
Everyone was hopeless, including Jing Hengbo himself. The ruler of the Emperor Song will not allow such a banner full of humiliation to still fly in the political center of the Great Wilderness, and will not allow the oath of a down-and-out queen to still cover the head of the Emperor Song with a banner.
At the beginning, the queen was exiled, and the legend of the emperor's song flag under the city had already flowed all over the wilderness, and many soldiers of the Hengji Army had also heard of it, so they had a passionate expectation of hitting the emperor's song, and they had also discussed it in private.
All the soldiers of the Halberd Army looked up awe-inspiringly, looking at the flag in a daze, their eyes full of disbelief.
It has always been the original flag, and the flag that she drew a big cross did not have undergone any repair, and the wind, frost, snow and hail at the head of the city cut the crack even bigger, and from a distance, it looked like a few torn black mouths, sneering in the sky.
On the left, the blood-red contemporary Queen's Flag looks shabby compared to the Golden Phoenix Flag, and there's a reason for that – because it hasn't been replaced.
In the middle, the golden phoenix flag belonging to the founding queen is still as before, hunting in the city, the golden phoenix flying in the air on the flag, the black phoenix eyes are a little indifferent and a little ridiculous to look down on the wilderness.
Three Flags of Emperor Song.
Under the banner of the bright red halberd army, Jing Hengbo put his hand on the eaves, facing the early morning sun, looking at the three flagpoles on the city wall.
The phalanx lined up towered in the distance of the blue-gray imperial song city wall, and the cold light of the armor and the black waves surging on the moat were intertwined,
Soldiers are coming to the city.
The fifth day of the ninth month of the 372nd year of the Great Wilderness Calendar.
