"He is an official of Daming," Zheng Ke was a little incredulous, "How could he come to me to be an official in Dayue?" ”

"How could it be?" Zheng Yu retorted: "Although my Da Yue is far less powerful than Da Ming, can I provide him with a place to show himself, man?" As long as he can make a contribution, he will stake his entire wealth here. ”

"You know him so well?" Zheng Ke's eyes stared at his daughter, "Or did you promise him something?" ”

"With Daddy's status, do you need me to say anything more to him?" The corners of Zheng Yu's lips curled slightly, "Smart people generally don't do stupid things, not to mention that he is just a dispensable character in Daming." ”

"Hmm......" Zheng Ke bowed slightly, "Although this person is young, he is a rare talent, if he can be used by me......"

"Daddy, don't worry," Zheng Yujiao laughed, "He promised that if he stays by my side for a year, I have a way to let him serve my Zheng family for the rest of his life." ”

Zheng Ke looked at her and smiled leisurely, and said meaningfully, "It looks like your mask is about to be taken off, right?" ”

"Daddy......" Zheng Yu lowered his head unnaturally.

Zheng Ke twisted his beard and smiled.

"Daddy," Zheng Yu looked up, "what's next?" How are we going to put that Maha Gui? ”

Zheng Ke's expression became solemn, and after thinking for a long time, he said to his daughter: "This matter must be cautious, one is not good, my Zheng family is full of ......" said and quickly came to the window and looked out, to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, and turned to Zheng Yu, "You can't come forward in this matter, Zhao'er is reckless, and it is not suitable to get involved, and besides, there must be no rumors leaking out." ”

"That'...... What should be done about this? Zheng Yuxiu frowned slightly, and looked at her father puzzled.

"There's one guy who can do it." Zheng Ke's gaze out of the window became deeper, "It's up to you to tell him." ”

"Daddy's is not to make him ......," Zheng Yu saw his father nod to him before he finished speaking.

"Except for him, do you think Maha Guilai will believe in the Yue people?" Zheng Ke said.

————————————

Maha Guilai woke up and found himself in an airtight room. Four of his subordinates were kneeling beside him, and when he saw him wake up, he said happily: "Your Highness, are you awake?" ”

"Where are we, Balloye?" Maha Guilai tried to sit up, but felt sore.

"Your Highness," said Balloye, holding him up, "we were brought here by the dogs. You forgot, they poured smoke into the hole and we all passed out......"

"Damn the dog," Maha Guilai cursed through gritted teeth, slamming his fist on the ground, "just a little bit...... We could almost dig out of the city, alas—"hate."

"Your Highness," Baroye persuaded, "Fortunately, that old thief Zheng Ke has been killed by His Highness, as long as you can escape, return to Zhancheng, and raise your arms and shout, you can respond in groups, and at that time, I will be able to occupy the city and restore the country." ”

"How easy is it to say?" Maha Guilai sighed, "I'm afraid that tomorrow morning, our heads will be cut off by Yue Gou and hung on the head of the city in this Huazhou." ”

"Your Highness must not say such discouraged words," an unusually burly man patted his chest and said, "Even if the villain dies, he will save Your Highness from here." "This man is the big man who clashed with the mountain people of Annan in front of the gate of Huazhou City, Yang Muyun secretly gave him a look, but he didn't realize it.

"Zhan Dari," Maha Gui came to pat the man on the shoulder, "we killed the commander of Yue Gou, they hate us to the bone, how can they let us leave safely, can we kill Zheng Ke's dog thief, I Maha Gui will not regret coming to die." ”

"But," said Jhandari, glaring at his big round eyes, "what about our country?" The king has been captured by Yue Gou and sent to Tokyo, if you want to make another mistake, who will lead the people of the city to restore the country? ”

As soon as these words came out, Maha Guilai's face became heavy, and he put his right hand on his chest and looked at the black roof solemnly, "If the Buddha blesses his devout followers, then the city will definitely not perish." He closed his eyes and muttered to himself.

"Your Highness......" The four of them, including Balloya and Zhandari, knelt on the ground with solemn expressions and recited the scriptures with Maha Guilai.

Unlike the Chinese culture inherited from Annam, Champa is more influenced by Indian culture. The whole country believes in Buddhism, even the king of Champa Mahaviya is a devout Buddhist, Vijaya is not only the capital of Champa, but also a Buddhist holy place. When the Annam army approached the city, Mahaviya believed that it was his duty to protect this Buddhist holy place from the Annam army as a faithful follower of the Buddha, so he did not flee from Vijaya like his brother and other nobles, so he was captured by the Annam army after the city was breached and sent to Tokyo.

The king of Annam, Li Yuanlong, was triumphant and paraded Mahaviya through the streets to show his martial arts, and changed Vijaya to Ding'an Mansion, and sent his own close eunuch Ruan Shilian as the newly established Ding'an Mansion town guard. Similar to the Ming Dynasty, the monarch of Annam preferred to trust eunuchs. The capital of the country was conquered, the king was captured, and Li Yuanlong believed that the remnants of the city were no longer enough to cause trouble, and the rumors could be determined. Therefore, an edict allowed Zheng Ke, the commander of the conquest of the city, to lead a large army to leave the Champa country, which was calm on the surface but in fact in danger.

The five of them recited the Great Nirvana Sutra to calm their minds.

Suddenly, the door opened with a "clang", and several Annan officers and soldiers dressed in military uniforms entered. Zheng Ke did not send them to the prison of the state government, but secretly imprisoned them in a remote courtyard. Except for his own son and daughter and a few cronies, no one knows about it at all.

The first person was dressed in armor, and he looked like he should be an Annan general, his eyes glanced at Maha Guilai and the other five people, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a sneer.

Maha Guilai slowly opened his eyes, looked at the Annan general with a calm face, and said lightly, "You're going to take us out so soon?" Can't even wait for dawn? In his opinion, the other party was going to escort himself out to show his head to the public.

General Annan snorted and said, "Do you still want to live until dawn?" If I don't put you to death with a sword to comfort my commander's spirit in the sky, how can I vent the anger of my entire army in Dayue? The voice was cold, and the faces of the two people changed.

Maha Guilai had no fear on his face, slowly stood up, looked directly at the Annan general, and said very calmly: "Let's go!" ”

....

I don't know what time it is, but the night outside is unusually dark, and there is not even a trace of starlight.

The general of Na Annan and his men rode on horses, and escorted Maha Guilai and the other five people to the outside of the city, and there was no one on the long street leading to the city gate, and there was a dead silence around, only the sound of horses' hooves could be heard.

Zhan Dari couldn't help but shout: "Wu Na Yue dog, if you have a kind of give me Zhan Dari a happy, piecemeal torture is not a hero!" ”

was screaming happily, and "snapped" the back of the head and ate it.

"If you want to die, where is it so cheap?" A soldier on a horse looked at him and said, "Why don't you call us grandpa, and if you scream more, you will be cut less by one knife." The rest of the soldiers laughed.

"Zhandari," Maha Guilai gave him a displeased look, "do you want to be humiliated even if you die?" ”

Zhandari took a sip from the soldiers and said no more.

The group soon arrived at the city gate, and the guards at the city gate were all stubborn and stubborn, not local officers and soldiers in Huazhou.

The general Annan said a few words to them, and they glared fiercely at Maha Guilai and the others, and then turned to open the city gate.

After leaving the city gate, I looked from a distance, and the Annan camp outside the city was brightly lit.

"Are they going to put us to death in front of that group of dogs in the barracks?" Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to the Annan military camp, the voice of one of them trembled slightly.

"What, scared?" Mahagui came to glance at him, "Nalongbaa, you and I have sworn in front of the Buddha, as long as you can sword Zheng Ke's traitor, you would rather have ten thousand arrows through your heart, have you forgotten?" ”

"I haven't forgotten," Narumbaa seemed a little nervous, swallowing a mouthful of saliva, "Your Highness, I, Narumbaa, am not afraid of death, but I just don't want to suffer the sin of life piecemeal." ”

"Soft bones," Maha Guilai's gaze was a little contemptuous, "are you afraid that they won't use the knife on you?" Narumbaa, puff up your chest and don't let the dogs look down on you. ”

"I'm ......," Narumbaa had barely finished speaking, when he heard a scream, and one of the Annan soldiers fell off his horse.

Maha Guilai and the other five people were stunned, only to see a black shadow flash like a ghost, a few cold lights flashed, and several other Annan soldiers also fell off their horses, convulsed a few times and then remained motionless.

The general Annan also sensed that something was wrong, and pulled out his knife with a "choking-" sound. Before he could see who the other party was, his throat was cold, his eyes widened and he fell off the horse without saying a word. In an instant, several Annan officers and soldiers were killed and fell off their horses, which made people feel a chill rise in their hearts.

"Your Highness, is it an evil ghost?" Several people said in horror.

Maha Guilai frowned, but saw a man in black suddenly appear in front of him.

"Are you ......" As soon as he opened his mouth, the other party ripped off the face towel covering his face.

"It's you!" Maha Guilai's eyes widened in surprise, the man in black in front of him was the young man he wanted to make friends with in front of the gate of Huazhou City yesterday, and the other party saved him when he assassinated Zheng Ke later.

Yang Muyun smiled and nodded.

"Who are you? Why did they come to save us? Mahagui asked.

Yang Muyun pointed to his mouth, waved his hand, indicating that he didn't understand his words, and drew several arcs with the knife in his hand, cutting off the bindings on several of them, and then took out a golden waist card from his arms and showed it in front of Maha Guilai.

By the faint light of the fire, Maha Gui came to see that there were two lines of Chinese characters engraved on it, "Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi Thousand Households." ”

"You're from Daming? Is it the Jinyi guard next to the Ming Emperor? Maha Gui came to ask Yang Muyun in Chinese. As a member of the Champa royal family, he studied in the Ming Dynasty, so he knew Chinese characters and spoke Chinese.

"He really knows Chinese characters......" Yang Muyun sighed, if the prince of Champa couldn't communicate in Chinese, he really didn't know what to do. Then he said: "Yes, in Xia Yang Muyun, I have seen Maha Guilai His Royal Highness. ”

"How do you know who I am?" Maha Guilai was pleasantly surprised: "Did the Ming Emperor send you?" ”

"This is a long story...... Yang Muyun looked sideways at the lights of the Annan camp in the distance, and said to Mahagui: "This is not a place to speak, Your Highness hurry up and leave here with me." He took a horse and handed him the reins.

Maha Guilai nodded slightly, turned over and got on his horse.

In the night, several fast horses galloped eastward.

....

I don't know how long I have been running, the morning light is slightly dewed in the sky, and the sound of waves is faintly ringing in my ears.

"Is this to the beach?" Yang Muyun stared at it, and the waves not far ahead, lapping the beach on the shore, were indeed at the beach.

Maha Gui came to build a pergola and looked into the distance, then turned the horse's head in a circle, shook the reins, and patted the horse to gallop south along the coastline. Yang Muyun galloped with him, and the rest of the people followed closely behind them.

"Your Highness, are you looking for a ship?" Yang Muyun asked him on his horse.

"Well," Mahagui said, "This is the case, I have to rush back to the city, the land is far away, and there are checkpoints set up by Yue Gou everywhere, so it is safer to take the sea route." My men are waiting by the sea in boats, and they should be seen further south. ”

After running for a few miles, I saw a sea ship docked on the shore in the distance.

"It's them!" Mahagui came to rejoice and galloped forward.

And when the horses of the people were about to approach the ship, some of them came down to meet them.

"It's ...... them" Yang Muyun grabbed the reins of the horse in surprise, and the people who came were very familiar, and they were actually the group of people who had fought with Ruan An and others at sea a few days ago.

After those people stepped forward to salute Maha Guilai respectfully, when they saw Yang Muyun's face change drastically, they roared forward and surrounded Yang Muyun, and raised their fists to make a move.

"Don't be rude!" Maha Guilai stopped them with a word, and his face sank, "What are you going to do?" ”

Prohibit transcoding, prohibit mode, the following content is hidden, please exit the mode!

"I had some misunderstandings with them at sea a few days ago...... Yang Muyun wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Maha Gui, "There is no need to mention the past, we will not hold grudges against our friends." ”

"Your Highness," said one of the big men angrily, "a few days ago this man beat us together with those Yue dogs, and many of our brothers were injured......"

"Well, this must be a misunderstanding," Mahagui glanced at Yang Muyun, and then said to them: "He was sent by the Ming Emperor to save us, you should respect him as you treat me, understand?" ”

"Yes!" Everyone answered, and retreated unwillingly.

"They are all my subordinates," Maha Guilai introduced to Yang Muyun in Chinese, "Lord Yang don't have to be afraid. ”
