All this can be said to be a blessing in misfortune. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

If Nanmen Lie and Hu Yanbo really fell into the hands of Mu Yirong, it would undoubtedly be difficult for her to save them again. Yuncheng is under Mu Yirong's control, if she exposes her flaws by saving them, I'm afraid even she herself will not be spared.

After a long time, Xue Rou asked in a deep voice: "General Nanmen, what are you and Prince Huyan coming to Nanchu for this time?" Is it really to form an alliance with Southern Chu and jointly send troops to the Zhou State? ”

"How is that possible?"

Nanmen Lie shook his head: "If Beirong and Chu form an alliance, and the Zhou State is destroyed, without the middle block, our Beirong Iron Cavalry will no longer be blocked, and we can drive straight into Chu and go straight to Chu, how can the Chu Emperor agree to form an alliance with Beirong?" This time I came to Chu with the five princes, and we came to congratulate the Emperor of Chu on his birthday, and when we left Beirong, His Majesty did not talk about the alliance with Southern Chu at all, he just ordered us to send congratulatory gifts to the Emperor of Chu, saying that this was a return gift to Beirong for his birthday last year. ”

Xue Rou squinted slightly, and a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

Beirong and Southern Chu are thousands of miles apart, and there is a big week in between, and the two countries have not been at war for a hundred years, and at the same time, because the distance is too far and there is very little contact, so there are few diplomatic relations. Whether it is the State of Chu or Beirong, even if they come and go, most of them are with the State of Zhou, in this case, how could the State of Chu inexplicably go to give Emperor Beirong a birthday gift? What's more, Emperor Chu has an arbitrary and domineering temperament, his eyes are empty, only people come to please him, how can he bow his head to please others, how can he order someone to give gifts to Beirong?

And if she remembers correctly, Emperor Beirong's birthday was around the winter solstice, and at that time last year, she was in the capital of the Great Zhou, but neither she nor Rong Jing had ever heard that there had been a team of envoys from Southern Chu to Beirong. If someone in the Chu Palace really gave gifts to Beirong, why did they quietly not be known?

Unless......

Xue Rou's eyes sank, and he tightened his palms, the person who gave the gift was not the Chu Emperor at all, or rather, the person who gave the gift was not in the Chu Emperor Palace at all!

"Are you sure that it was someone from the Chu Palace who gave your Majesty a gift in the first place?"

"What do you mean?"

"Last year, no envoys from Southern Chu went to Beirong at all."

Nanmen Lie's expression was slightly stunned when he heard this, and the look on his face became extremely ugly in the next moment. He suddenly remembered that at that time, at the palace banquet of the Beirong Emperor's Longevity Festival, there were indeed people who claimed to be Southern Chu to give gifts to the Beirong Emperor, and they were also left in the Beirong Palace for a few days, but at this time, as one of the three dignified countries, the Chu State went to Beirong without losing its own national strength, and there was no national post or envoy, and the gift giver was a little-known person, how could this be possible?

He looked up at Xue Rou violently, and muttered with a expression: "But why did that person pretend to be someone from the Chu Imperial Palace?" ”

Xue Rou also frowned, Emperor Beirong is not a fool, there is no shortage of smart people in the Beirong court, and at that time, Ayao was still in Beirong and had never been to the Zhou State, that person wanted to pretend to be an envoy of the Chu Palace to give gifts, he must be a person who is extremely familiar with the affairs of the Chu State, and even the affairs in the Chu Palace, otherwise it would never be so easy to win the trust of the Beirong royal family, and why did he do this? Could it be that it is to calculate the team of Beirong coming to Nanchu this time?

If this is the case, then the person who instructed people to go to Beirong in the first place is the same person she is looking for now, but what is he doing this for? Just to use the Beirong people to calculate her and the trading house?

How can it be!

Xue Rou shook her head and took the lead in vetoing, at that time, she had just entered the capital of the Zhou Kingdom, and she hadn't even finished the affairs of the Yin family, and even she didn't know that she would come to Nanchu one day to assist Rong Jing, how could that person know in advance that she was coming, and set a trap to wait for her? But if it's not for her, but for what? What is there in Beijon that is worth such a lot of calculations and schemes by that man?

She vaguely felt that the man's calculation of Beirong might have something to do with Ah Yao's accident, but for a while, she couldn't figure out what the connection was.

When Dark San and Wei Jiang came back with the doctor, there was silence in the storage room, Xue Rou and Nanmen Lie were silent with ugly faces, although Dark San felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, but he still asked the doctor to come forward and treat Hu Yanbo, and after the pulse was diagnosed, the doctor medicated all the external injuries on Hu Yanbo's body, and tied his legs with wooden planks, and then stopped.

"Doctor, how's he doing?" Nanmen Lie asked worriedly.

The doctor wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said to Nanmen Lie: "Don't worry, this son, just because the injury on his leg has not been treated, so he has inflammation and fever, and he hasn't rested well for a while, so he will be weak." After the old man prescribes a dose of medicine and boils it for him, the fever will subside, and the person will be able to wake up. It's just that for a short period of time, he doesn't need to exert force on his legs and don't get out of bed and walk around, and it will be okay to raise him for a month or two.

"Thank you, doctor."

Nanmen Lie was obviously relieved, and Xue Rou asked the doctor to prescribe medicine for Nanmen Lie's injuries on his body, and then asked Wei Jiang to take the doctor out to get the medicine, while Xue Rou looked at Dark San and asked in a low voice, "Is this doctor reliable?" ”

Dark San nodded: "Don't worry, girl, this person has excellent medical skills, and he is famous for recognizing money and not people, among the patients he contains, there are court criminals, and there are also people in the rivers and lakes who are full of evil, as long as he is given enough money, his mouth is tighter than anyone else." ”

Xue Rou was relieved when she heard this.

After waiting for a while, after the doctor boiled the medicine, Dark San helped Hu Yanbo to feed him, and after a long time, Hu Yanbo, who had been unconscious, woke up.

Hu Yanbo opened his eyes with a pale face, and was startled when he saw Xue Rou, and when he saw Nanmen Lie, he breathed a sigh of relief and said weakly: "General Nanmen, where is this, they are?" ”

"They are friends of King Jing, if they hadn't taken the risk to save us this time, I'm afraid we would have died a long time ago."

Nanmen Lie didn't say Xue Rou's name, but simply said what happened after Hu Yanbo passed out in a coma, Hu Yanbo heard that Xue Rou and the others were friends of King Jing, his face was obviously stiff, although he was very quick to cover up, but Xue Rou, who had been paying attention to him, saw it clearly.

Xue Rou's eyes suddenly flashed with contemplation, and the words that Nanmen Lie had told her before came to her mind, and she suddenly opened her mouth and asked Huyanbo: "Prince Huyan, when you left Beirong, how was King Jing?" Is the fire poison in his body better? (To be continued.) )
