Chapter 185: A Write-off
Xia Zixiu reacted a little at this time, he was so weak that he didn't even listen to the princess's words clearly, so he panicked to justify. You must know that it is not a fault to be sick, but if you are sick and do not tell the princess, it is a crime of deception! That's going to kill your head!
Looking at Xia Zixiu's flustered appearance, the nineteenth princess was a little disgusted, a little pity, and more hesitant, she was even afraid that Xia Zixiu would really admit it at this time. But even if she didn't admit it, she was almost sure that Xia Zixiu might really not be able to do it. Suddenly, she didn't want to expose him again, because she still needed the 40,000 army in Xia Zixiu's hands.
"Alas! Forget it, since Ji Zhichen has difficulties, then you have to work hard! I'll take care of the things here! The nineteenth princess said with a light sigh.
"Oh! Okay, okay, I'll go over at once, princess, don't worry, I'll definitely settle this matter!" Xia Zixiu didn't expect the nineteenth princess to suddenly change her attitude, and she didn't ask any more questions, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said in a loud voice.
Before the nineteenth princess could say anything, Xia Zixiu had already retreated with a roar, looking at Xia Zixiu's distant figure, it was more like escaping from the predicament, and he was impatient to leave!
The nineteenth princess couldn't help but shed two tears, and then felt a little more relaxed, she suddenly felt that this Xia Zixiu was not worth her effort, and even a little relaxed, she could choose again, of course, that was after controlling all the soldiers and horses in Xiyuan City in her own hands!
Xia Zixiu rode his horse all the way, and it only took two hours to rush to the fiefdom of King Ming, and when he arrived at Ma Songju's house, he rushed in excitedly. As soon as they saw Ma Songju, the two hugged each other excitedly, and at this time Xia Zixiu felt that he had found a home, this was the person he had been thinking about for a long time.
It's only been a few days, Ma Songju has also lost a lot of weight, his eyes are red, and at this time he was excited and tearful, his heart has been tormented in the past few days, but there is no way, he is afraid that he will really lose Xia Zixiu! But I didn't expect Xia Zixiu to come so quickly. The two affectionately held hands and walked towards Ma Songju's bedroom......
At this time, King Ming also followed his wife quietly to King Wen's mansion, King Wen didn't expect King Ming to visit late at night, and it was Princess Ming who came forward. I don't see it, it seems a little inappropriate, at least Princess Ming's impression of King Wen is still very good! However, King Wen doesn't have any evil thoughts, he is very envious that King Ming can have such a wife as Princess Ming!
When King Ming and Princess Ming were invited to the living room, King Wen was still a little unsure of what the other party was doing this trip, but he also understood a little in his heart, after all, the eldest prince and the sixth prince were too close, which made King Ming a little worried! In fact, not to mention King Ming, even King Wen is also very worried! Now that King Ming suddenly visited, King Wen suddenly moved in his heart, as if another possibility had appeared!
"Third brother, your second brother and I are visiting this time, you must know what it is for, right?" After taking her seat, Princess Ming spoke first, and now she has to show the greatest sincerity, so there is no need to go around in circles.
"Well, I'd like to hear about it!" King Wen nodded and said, glancing at King Ming intentionally or unintentionally, while King Ming sat down, bowing his head a little embarrassed.
"Now the situation is complicated, presumably the third brother also knows. What is even more worrying is that the eldest brother and the sixth brother have the intention of joining forces. If this is the case, I am afraid that you and I will not be able to resist it, and it will only be a matter of time before we are exterminated! And the third brother, you are the first to bear the brunt, even if you want to be obedient, but the style of the eldest prince, I'm afraid you can't keep your wife and children! Not to mention that Princess Wen is still the most glamorous in the world! What's more, the eldest brother has always left no trouble! As soon as Princess Ming came up, she pointed out what King Wen was most worried about, and I have to say that her words were very convincing, and she talked about King Wen's sore spots.
"Alas! I've thought about this too, but does the second sister-in-law have any good plans? King Wen sighed, didn't want to hold the shelf anymore, and asked in a low voice.
"Of course there is, and it certainly works, though I don't dare say anything taboo. But self-preservation is certainly more than enough! Princess Ming immediately said affirmatively.
"You mean...... King Wen looked at King Ming, he hoped that King Ming would speak, after all, King Ming was the prince who was equal to him.
"That's right! Third, what we mean is that you and I can only fight against the eldest brother if we join forces! As long as you and I join forces, I have war horses and weapons, you have enough food, learn from each other's strengths, enough to make us stronger, and your men and horses plus my two million men and horses. Then you won't be left behind at all! King Ming also said excitedly at this time.
There were weapons and food, and there were more than three million men on both sides, and it became very easy to increase the number of soldiers. As long as the two sides join forces, all the problems will be solved, and it will definitely be mutually beneficial. Of course, the premise is that the two need to cooperate with Jincheng.
"Humph! But I can't trust you! Although King Wen was also very surprised in his heart, he said with a very cold face. He is still haunted by what King Ming did a few years ago.
"Huh! Third brother, in fact, the last time your second brother did drink too much, he would make inappropriate moves, and he regretted it very much, and he always wanted to resolve this grievance with you! Princess Ming immediately smiled and said, now of course one is singing white face, the other is singing red face, and the husband and wife can only persuade King Wen by singing and harmonizing.
"Yes, yes, the foolish brother did have some drunken gaffes at the beginning, but after he woke up, he regretted it very much, and he was very ashamed! Third child, don't worry, the foolish brother swears to God here, and there will never be any more offense! If you still refuse to forgive your foolish brother, you call your brother and sister, and I will kowtow to make amends! King Ming said very solemnly.
"Yes! You called Princess Wen too, let him make a good fool of himself, and have a long memory, in fact, your second brother has been very regretful all these years, and he has long wanted to apologize to you, but he has never had this opportunity, and now he can take this opportunity to completely expose this matter, third brother, what do you think? Princess Ming also said with a smile on the side.
"Hmmm! Forget it, since you've said so, I don't care about the past anymore! After all, the most important thing is that the two join forces! "King Wen saw that this was already the case, and he could only borrow the slope to get off the donkey, did he really give up such an opportunity to protect himself!
"Huh! is still the third brother reasonable. Third brother, we came this time, in order to show the sincerity of joining forces, we specially prepared some things, do you think they can be used? Princess Ming took out a gift slip and handed it to King Wen.
King Wen took it and took a closer look, and was immediately very surprised, because what was presented on the gift list was not any gold and silver treasures, nor calligraphy and painting antiques, but 5,000 ironclad war horses and 100,000 weapons of various kinds, which was exactly what King Wen needed most. Five thousand ironclad war horses, that's a lot of money! Moreover, this kind of iron-armored war horse is regarded as a treasure by King Ming, and he didn't expect to send five thousand horses as soon as he made a move.
The relationship between the two sides became much closer all of a sudden, King Wen also deliberately set up a banquet to entertain King Ming and his wife, and the two sides began to discuss the details of the joint venture, as well as the future development trend.
King Ming also stood up very solemnly, bowed deeply to Princess Wen, and asked Princess Wen to forgive her for the last indecent act. This made Princess Wen a little overwhelmed, and quickly let go, which can be regarded as forgiving King Ming, but she is still a little unsteady in her heart, King Ming's behavior is still very ruthless, but now she also knows that joining forces between the two sides is the best result.
Of course, then Princess Ming was very good at things, and she pulled Princess Wen very affectionately, and it was still easy for women to communicate with each other, and soon there was no estrangement, and there was talk and laughter.
King Ming secretly glanced at Princess Wen, still a little hot, I didn't expect Princess Wen to be so beautiful and moving now, and she was more plump and mature than before, it was impossible for this kind of woman to want to!
But King Ming still turned his head very sensibly at this time, and talked to King Wen about wine, the first thing he has to do now is to promote the cooperation of the two families, as for the rest of the matter, then wait until later!
……
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, Zhu Xiaobao ran out from behind the tree, looked at the thick iron pipe with the mouth of the bowl that was blown up, and couldn't help but feel a little deflated, because the iron pipe had been blown up.
"Master, what is this, how can it be so powerful?" The Wine and Meat Venerable also followed behind Zhu Xiaobao and asked in a little surprise. This thing seems to be much stronger than his martial arts, and it can fight far away.
"Humph! You can't even beat a woman, so I'll have to make my own weapons to protect myself! Zhu Xiaobao said angrily, he had already tried it for the fifth time, and the effect was still not ideal. So let's take the old apprentice out of anger, who called the old apprentice's ranking the last of the Nine Venerables!
"Master, I've already said that I can beat the Nine Yin Venerable now, so I'm definitely not at the bottom now! Why don't you believe it! The Venerable Wine and Meat said very annoyedly, just because of this bit of, Zhu Xiaobao grabbed it, and every time he hit him, it made the Venerable Wine and Meat very angry.
"Humph! I'm calling it a red-clothed cannon, if it succeeds, let alone a Nine Yin Venerable, even if the Nine Great Venerables come together, I will still blast them out! Zhu Xiaobao pursed his lips and hummed, he was in a bad mood now, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the Wine and Meat Venerable, but looked at the blown up cannon barrel and muttered to himself: "This thing can already be produced in the Qing Dynasty, is my iron-making technology not as good as the Qing Dynasty?" Impossible? Or is there too much gunpowder? ”
"Master, can't you make a small one first? It seems a bit of a pity to waste so much gunpowder every time! And small tubes are also relatively easy to process! The Venerable Wine and Meat whispered on the side,
"That's right! Let's get a trumpet first. Haha, old apprentice, your brain is becoming more and more flexible, and you can teach it! Zhu Xiaobao immediately turned his anger into joy, hooked the old apprentice's neck and laughed......
