Xie Zhan nodded and said, "Yes, if they really want to fight to the death with us, it is not impossible to sacrifice the people of a city." ”

Zheng Kai touched his non-existent beard while learning from the appearance of the Ministry of Works, and said, "We may not have to go in, shout outside the door, and wait for them to come out, otherwise we won't let them live well." For a long time, there must have been people who were not satisfied, and it was possible for them to rebel. ”

Zheng Kai's words immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone looked at him with sudden realization, but made him blush, embarrassed.

"Sure enough, sometimes the right direction comes from not using your brain."

"Yes, it's a shame that Zheng Youlang thought of it, we haven't thought of it yet!"

Zheng Kai: "......"

Sometimes this is not combined with the context, and I really can't hear whether it is a loss or a boast.

They were pondering how to attack the city in the safest way, but the Imperial Palace welcomed an uninvited guest.

A day ago, the envoy of Yuzhi Kingdom arrived at the Daliang Palace, and when he met with Xiao Changting, he only mentioned that he wanted to see Princess Daliang.

However, Xiao Changting just glanced at him and let people sweep him out of the door.

Before leaving the palace, he shouted loudly: "The six princes and nobles of Da Liang are all in our hands, if you don't want them to die, let your people retreat immediately!" ”

Xiao Changting shook his head coldly.

None of the two people he said cared about.

As he left, his heart pounded.

I saw that at the bottom of the steps, Princess Huai'an was standing quietly.

Compared to the previous days, she was even thinner, and there were only bones left in her body.

In the cold of October, she only wore a thin skirt, and she stood in the wind, but it was like a thin piece of paper.

Xiao Changting's throat gurgled, took off his cloak and walked towards Xiao Changyu, and gently draped the cloak on her body as before, but there was no more greeting, passing by her.

"I am the one whom the messenger wants to see."

Xiao Changting stood still, his eyes silent.

Xiao Changyu also didn't turn back, and said quietly: "The person he wants to see is me, and the person who makes the decision should also be me." ”

She turned around, looked at Xiao Changting's back firmly, and said, "I know, what Yuzhi Kingdom has done has angered you, this last attack, King Yuzhi is afraid that he won't even have a seat, and Yuzhi Kingdom will be completely reduced to the Great Liang Management Area." But if you attack, the sixth brother's life will be gone! ”

Xiao Changting's fists clenched violently, and he gritted his teeth and said, "He is a traitor." ”

"But he didn't step out of the sixth layer after all!"

"He just didn't make it!" Xiao Changting turned back suddenly, his eyes were about to split, "Xiao Changyu, where have I treated you badly, why have you never had me in your eyes!" They're just using you, they're teasing you, and the person who protects you and cares about you has always been me, just me! But why, what you care about is always your third brother, your sixth brother, but not your fifth brother! ”

The breeze lifted Xiao Changyu's long hair, and in the wind, she deliberately showed an innocent and happy smile for her fifth brother for the first time, but this smile was not for him: "A man who can be literate, martial and gentle like the third brother is all my ideals for men." ”

Xiao Changting closed his eyes, turned his back, exhaled with difficulty, and said, "Xiao Changyu, you must know that everything in the world has a price, not what you want. ”

"I understand, so...... Sacrifice my life. One life for another, it's enough, isn't it? Xiao Changyu's voice was very gentle, but such tenderness had never been shown to him.

The nails were pinched into the flesh, and the blood fell down the joints. fell into the dirt, and even the blood splashed couldn't splash: "Okay, since you have decided, then let it be." ”

Xiao Changting wrote a letter of withdrawal and asked people to send Yuzhi and summoned Yuzhi's envoy again.

This time, he was also seen by Princess Huai'an, who was in his heart.

"I can retreat, but the two cities I have captured will not be returned." Xiao Changting said.

The envoy's face changed, and he got up excitedly, and said, "There are three cities in the Yuzhi Kingdom, and the smallest country in the surrounding area has two cities, isn't Your Majesty trying to force the Yuzhi Kingdom to death like this?" ”

Xiao Changting glanced at him indifferently and said, "In order to support your crumbling Yuzhi Kingdom, I will marry my favorite princess to your third prince, Yusblai, with her, no one dares to deceive you Yuzhi Kingdom." ”

The messenger looked at the veiled princess who was sitting quietly, and his heart was relieved, but more hatred.

Their Yuzhi Kingdom was originally the strongest among the surrounding small countries, but now, they were so sarcastic by Emperor Da Liang! This kind of hatred, don't say it's them, even their juniors will remember it!

Xiao Changting seemed unwilling to say another word to the envoy, and after finishing speaking, he got up and left, and said: "Our princess is golden, and twelve sedan chairs, three hundred miles of red makeup, ten thousand taels of broken silver roads, and five thousand dowry gifts are all indispensable. ”

The emissary's face turned pale, and blood oozed from his clenched fists.

What Xiao Changting said is that none of their queens have such treatment! There is also the dowry of 5,000 lifts, if it is given, their Yuzhi Kingdom may not be able to turn over in this life!

No, let alone turn over, they may not be able to afford it!

"What about the princess's waterways, short kicks, and eight thousand dowries?"

Xiao Changting's footsteps paused slightly, squinted at him, and said, "Naturally." ”

The words were made lightly and without the slightest embarrassment, which made the messenger's face even more ugly and the meaning of humiliation even stronger.

"But ......" The corners of Xiao Changting's lips were slightly hooked, and a sneer flashed in his eyes, "A woman's dowry is a woman's private property, and Yuzhi Kingdom should not use a woman's dowry privately because of poverty." ”

The messenger's face turned blue and white.

Xiao Changting waved his hand and said, "In addition, our princess of Daliang is noble, and you can't kneel when you go to your Yuzhi country, you can't afford it." You have to remember that. ”

The envoy couldn't bear it anymore, called Xiao Changting, and said angrily: "Your Majesty and relatives are here to humiliate my Yuzhi Kingdom!" ”

Xiao Changting tilted his head, looked at him in shock and strangeness, and said, "Aren't you the ones who beg me to retire and protect Da Liang?" ”

He turned around, looked at him with a smile, and said, "If you want dignity, you can do it, I can send someone to withdraw the retreat letter immediately, what does the envoy think?" ”

With a word, the messenger immediately bit his lower lip and obediently closed his mouth.

Xiao Changting sneered and left, and his figure disappeared around the corner: "Okay, go back and prepare, on the day of the wedding, I want to see my sixth brother and my nobleman." Don't forget your promise to me, or ...... Nothing to talk about. ”

Outside Yuzhi City, Zheng Kai smashed the door of Yuzhi Kingdom with the mechanism he made.
