Chapter 030: There is someone under the emperor's hand
In this short distance, they walked for almost half an hour. Luo Qi hurriedly told Jiuxiong about the whole story, of course, these truths are all learned by Luo Qi from the "Historical Records" and wild history, plus personal imagination and play.
Luo Qi's explanation was so wonderful that Jiuxiong listened to it, and was so sad that he cried and almost fainted, and almost fell off the horse, but fortunately, the soldiers next to him reached out to help. In this situation, Xiye (Meng Tian) couldn't help crying.
Luo Qi was worried that Jiuxiong would be too sad and there would be chaos, so he didn't say any more, and hurriedly reminded Nishino: "General, go and rescue Your Majesty's Spiritual Body, once Zhao Gao loses his mind, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
"What the prime minister said is very true, I will go to the emperor immediately." Nishino ordered a team of personal soldiers to protect the nine bears, and he led a large group of men and horses to gallop towards the emperor.
"Providence!" Zhao Gao learned that the former army had given up resistance, and knew that he had no power to return to the sky, and the general trend had gone, so he panicked and ordered his subordinates to flee, "You all run for your lives-"
Unexpectedly, Gongzi Li suddenly appeared: "My lord, slow down-"
Zhao Gao glanced at Gongzi and asked, "Childe, what else can you do, please speak." ”
Childe rolled his eyes away, and said with a sneer: "Why don't you come up with a plan to kill people with a knife?" ”
"It's still Childe Takami who reminded me." Zhao Gao looked at the emperor and pouted, "Come on, light the fire." ”
Zhao Gao ordered his subordinates to prepare torches, intending to set fire to the emperor's coffin, and put the blame on Fusu and Meng Tian. Suddenly the wind started again, and the torches couldn't burn.
Zhao Gao, who had blue tendons on his forehead, jumped like thunder: "It's all a bunch of rice buckets, and it's a waste of money!" "Jumping off his horse, snatching the torch from the sergeant's hand, he tried to light it, but in vain.
"My lord, let's go, or it won't be too late—" Childe shouted with a sad face.
The sky was dusty in the west, and tens of thousands of iron horsemen swept in like a hurricane. Zhao Gao's men saw that it was too late to set fire, and stammered to Zhao Gao: "Nine...... Jiuyuan ...... Iron...... Iron riding is not eating...... Vegetarian. Run, sir! ”
Gongzili scolded: "Look at your bear-like, where is your usual majesty, why don't you get Lord Zhao away quickly!" ”
"No!" A few minions hurriedly changed Zhao Gao into soldiers' clothes, pushed and shoved him onto the horse, but Zhao Gao was still holding a torch that had not been burned, and said angrily: "I'm unwilling, I'm unwilling—"
"What else do you want? Running for your life is the first thing! Gongzi Li stepped onto the war horse suddenly, whipped the horse's buttocks, Zhao Gao's war horse galloped in pain, and ran dozens of meters away with a smoke.
"Childe, where are we going now?" The dozen or so generals who were panicked were all ignorant, and asked Ji Gongzi with nervous expressions.
"Where else can I go? Lantian camp! Childe said without thinking.
"Well, we'll all listen to you—"
"Brothers, go to the camp in Lantian. Withdraw——" Gongzili gave an order, and more than a thousand horsemen followed closely behind Gongzili, and chased after Zhao Gao in a panic.
In less than a cup of tea, Nishino arrived with a large army and surrounded the emperor. These 20,000 sabre-rattling Tiger Guards refused to surrender and were eager to try, wanting to fight to the death with the Jiuyuan Army.
Zhao Gao, Gongzili and the others all fled, the Tiger Guards were not in chaos, they were directly loyal to the First Emperor, and if they were forcibly disarmed, there would be a fierce battle.
Xiye (Meng Tian) is a foreign minister, and without the order of the first emperor, he cannot command them, and he is not sure about the idea of whether to fight or persuade him to surrender.
"Let me do it, General." Luo Qi walked out of the military formation alone, "The soldiers of Great Qin, the emperor who swears to protect you is His Majesty's coffin." You've all worked hard, so go down and rest. The hearse was handed over to General Meng Tianmeng's Great Wall Army to protect. ”
"Isn't Your Majesty good? Dare to ask adults, who are you? One of the senior commanders of the Tiger Guard asked with a gloomy face.
"Your Majesty has been dead for many days, and it's true. I'm Prime Minister Li Si. Luo Qi revealed his identity.
"A few days ago, didn't the prime minister go back to Xianyang with the eighteenth prince?" The Commander still didn't quite believe in Luo Qi.
"I came to mediate on the orders of the prince." Luo Qi smiled, "I am a dignified appearance of a country, and I can't lie to you." ”
"What about the Divine Decree?"
"Bold! It's not that it's a dictation, where is the holy decree? ”
"Without a holy decree, there will only be swords and guns. Brothers, someone is pretending to be a prime minister, get ready guys! ”
"Wait—" Nishino patted immediately, "That's right, this is Lord Li Sili." Meng Tian and I guarantee the head of the item. ”
"General Meng, the last general is brave and offensive, please forgive me." The commander of the Tiger Guard Army knew Meng Tian and admired his great achievements, so he waved his hand: "Brothers, put down your weapons." Let's all go down and rest—" The commander and his team retreated to a place 300 meters away, and the Jiuyuan Legion was able to take over the emperor smoothly.
Nishino and Luo Qi sang and harmonized, and the imminent crisis was easily resolved. People have a good reputation, and they can't accept it.
"Someone, open the back door of the emperor's coffin-" Luo Qi slowly dismounted and stood on the edge of the emperor's bowl, the smell of corpses and the smell of abalone were mixed together, which was quite unappetizing.
"Damn Zhao Gao, you can come up with any bad idea." Nishino also dismounted and commanded the sergeants to form a large circle to ensure that nothing went wrong.
The sergeants stepped forward, moved the abalone basket with all their hands and feet, and unloaded it. The stench was so bad that the sergeant covered his mouth and nose with gauze, got into the cart, carried out the coffin, and was surprised to find that there was still a person under the bracket of the coffin!
The man looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old, his face was pale as a ghost, he was trembling, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, his clothes were dirty and smelly, his hair was disheveled, and he was in a semi-comatose state, as if he had just crawled out of a mass grave.
"What the hell!" The soldiers couldn't help but take a few steps back, and when they looked at it, the man's chest was still rising and falling slightly, and they were shocked: "It's too strange, there is an unknown person under the bracket!" ”
"Hurry up and ask the general to come over, let's not touch him for the time being." A sergeant turned away from the coffin, out of the crowd, and quickly reported to Nishino.
"There is such a strange thing, no matter who it is, bring it out and talk about it." As soon as Nishino arrived at the coffin, he ordered someone to carry the person out as well.
"I'll take a closer look." Because his face was too dirty, after looking at it for a long time, Nishino could only see that it was a girl, and he couldn't figure out why it was hidden in the crack under the coffin.
Nishino seemed to feel that something was wrong, and sent a few soldiers to invite Nine Bears. Then Nishino hurriedly summoned the military doctor: "Langzhong, please come and help me-"
"General, what's the matter?" Lang Zhong came over in response.
"Langzhong, wake this person up as soon as possible, it's hard work." He Jiannan said eagerly.
"No." After Lang Zhong finished speaking, he walked over to the unconscious woman, half-squatted on the ground, checked her pulse for a while, and said, "General, this person is overly hungry and weak, I will give her a dose of decoction to recover." ”
After a while, Jiuxiong walked to the coffin of the first emperor with tears in his eyes, and saw the military doctor feeding a woman decoction on the side, and was shocked: "Langzhong, where is a woman?" ”
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know about my humble position." Lang Zhong replied.
"I'll just ask a few words." Jiuxiong approached the boy and carefully examined the woman for a while, but he couldn't recognize who it was. The woman took the decoction, but her eyes were still closed and she couldn't speak, so Jiuxiong had to give up.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the patient is now weak and needs to recuperate." Lang Zhong slowly laid the woman flat on the stretcher.
"Well, I'll say hello when she wakes up." As Jiuxiong was about to get up and leave, he saw that the jade bracelet on the woman's wrist was extraordinary and conspicuous. It was the best jewelry that only the royal family had, and he was very surprised, and thought: "This thing is my first birthday gift to the Zixia Imperial Sister." I can't think of it for a few years, I won't even recognize Sister Zixia, damn it! ”
Jiuxiong tightly grabbed Zixia's thin little hand, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up—pass the maid, take care of the little sister of the emperor for me." ”
Nishino couldn't help but be stunned, a little girl like a beggar was actually the sister of "Fusu", that was the biological flesh and blood of His Majesty the First Emperor, no matter how she looked like a princess!
After a while, the princess's maids all came, and when they saw the princess's miserable appearance of being angry and disgraced, they looked at each other dumbfounded.
"Dumb? Are you talking? Why did the princess burrow under the coffin? The Nine Bears roared violently, and the maids were so frightened that they took a few steps back one by one, trembling incessantly.
"Your Highness, you are so fierce and vicious, you will scare them." Luo Qi stopped the Nine Bears and signaled not to make trouble for them.
"Prime Minister, aren't I in a hurry? I don't know the truth, and I feel very unhappy. Jiuxiong's tone softened a lot at once.
"Why are you still stunned, why don't you help the princess back to the car?" Nishino came out to play the round. The people understood, and then they stepped forward with trepidation, and carefully carried the princess back into her carriage.
"General, we have searched all the neighborhood, but we have not seen any trace of Zhao Gao and Gongzili." The commander of the Nine Plains Army, Pegasus, came to Nishino's side.
"I see. Pass on my order: Release the generals who were detained by Zhao Gao, and the whole army will be su, raise white flags, and escort the corpse of His Majesty the First Emperor back to Xianyang. Xiye did not change his anger, and continued to order, "Another 2,000 cavalry was quickly dispatched to pursue Zhao Gao and Gongzili. Make no mistake! ”
"No! The end will be done immediately. The commander turned his horse's head and led the Jiuyuan Division to the direction of Liyang.
The army of "King Qin" along the way understood that they had received a false edict, and they came one after another, blocking the straight road, which brought great inconvenience to the emperor's march, and Nishino had to send them back and strictly guard their respective passes and wait for their orders.
