Chapter 160: The Siege

Lin Zhengxiao looked into the distance, looked at it for a long time before going down the hillside, and the little guy on the side handed over the robe and asked in a low voice, "How is it?" ”

"The time and place are right, and we are one step closer to our goal." Lin Zhengxiao's eyes bent.

The patriarch of the Yue clan, who had just been sent over by the leader of the Qin clan to talk secretly, snorted coldly and complained when he saw Lin Zhengxiao coming in: "The cooperation is still going to be sneaky, it's not that I'm afraid that the Pei clan will fight back, and I don't know where to achieve hegemony." ”

"Naturally, they don't have the courage of the leader, and there are only a few people in this world who are kings and hegemons, such as the leader, how can the adults ask everyone to be the same." Lin Zhengxiao naturally praised it with kind words first.

The leader of the qin laughed and was praised very flutteringly: "How did Lin Moushi watch?" ”

Lin Zhengxiao only then got to the point: "There are no stars and no moon tonight, it is a good opportunity for a sneak attack, before you said that some people are worried about Pei's counterattack, at least for now, it seems that there is no such possibility, our spies still have not found out the news of Pei's sending troops, and Yucheng, which is five miles away, is almost an empty city, in fact, there is no need to look at it at all, and tonight's shot is like probing for something." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll let my son lead the troops to prepare!" Leader Qin's eyes lit up, and Lin Zhengxiao saw in his eyes that there was no ambition hidden in the slightest, and smiled silently.

The two armies were about to meet, but the queen in the capital, thousands of miles away, was still entangled in the disappearance of Shen Jiahe, and she had no result after many inquiries, and the queen had no choice but to inform the emperor of the matter.

"If such a big living person is still in the capital, he will not be able to find it, he must be out of Beijing, your majesty, you don't care?" Yang Shuo, the superintendent of the army, is an eye that the emperor put into the army, if the emperor orders to investigate, and Shen Jiahe really goes to the army, it is still very easy to convict.

The emperor is impatient with the intrigue of these women, Zuo is just a woman where can she go, eighty percent went to the border to find King Xian.

He has already arranged everything, if Pei Yuan dies on the battlefield, he may be able to give him a reputation after death, if he returns safely and victoriously, then he can only kill people.

With the experience of the last failure, this time he has arranged it seamlessly, just waiting to take his life, the woman only knows how to play some tricks, if Shen Jiahe comes back with Pei Yuan, it will not be a ghost under the knife together, what is there to worry about.

As for wasting manpower and material resources to find it now, it is even more unnecessary.

Thinking of this, the emperor put down one of the feathers that teased the bird, raised his eyelids and said: "If the person is gone, it will be gone, and it won't affect you. "Maybe it's a corpse coming back.

"But the crown prince ......," the queen wanted to say more.

The emperor waved his hand impatiently to interrupt her: "Don't you say that the prince is not angry, the prince of a country, now don't think about how to consolidate the hearts of the ministers, waste time on a woman all day long, if you can't teach him well, there will be more people who want to be the prince." ”

The queen's face was pale, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back, and she hurriedly knelt down to intercede for the prince: "The emperor is angry, the prince is just a ghost for a while, and the concubine will go back to teach the prince well, and will never let him waste the government." ”

The emperor nodded with satisfaction: "Go ahead." ”

The queen returned to Qiwu Palace tremblingly, and drank three cups of hot tea in a row to suppress the fear in her heart.

The prince's talent and virtue were ruined three times and twice in Shen Jiahe's hands, the queen clenched her fists, gritted her teeth and ordered: "Father-in-law Xu, send someone to Shen Xiang's mansion for a trip, the corners and corners of the palace have been investigated, and you must know Shen Jiahe's whereabouts." ”

After Grandpa Xu left, Mama Xu brought another cup of tea: "What's wrong with the queen?" ”

"This palace must watch Shen Jiahe die with her own eyes, as long as she exists for one day, the position of the crown prince will not be stable for a day." The murderous intent in the queen's eyes flashed, and quickly disappeared.

Shen Jiachen went to Shen Jiajue's house without moving, and waited for the servants in the room to retreat before smiling at him: "This is the third batch." ”

Shen Jiajue sneered: "A group of brainless things, after looking for so long and not finding anyone, I can't guess that Jiahe went to the border?" ”

Shen Jiachen roared and played with a wolf howl and laughed: "Maybe I don't believe that she has such perseverance as a girl, hehe, aren't we just as surprised when we first found out!" But that's fine, let them check, we can also solve some disobedient minions in the house by the way. ”

The spies in the Prime Minister's Mansion returned in vain, and Mama Xu analyzed: "Shen Xiang really has no reason to hide people, it should be the same as we thought before, this person has gone to the border." ”

"If she really went to the border, the queen mother only needs to wait for someone to come back with peace of mind, and then she can be imprisoned for any crime, and she can't solve it?" Gonggong Xu also analyzed on the side.

These queens all understand, but they all ignore a possible result that they don't want to see, that is, Pei Yuan comes back with his military exploits, and when the time comes, no one dares to say anything if he protects his princess with his military exploits.

Although the emperor didn't say it explicitly, he must have made preparations secretly, but the queen was always uneasy, as long as she didn't see Shen Jiahe's corpse, she felt like a thorn in her heart.

"Prince Xuan has come to the palace." Pei Shu's actions in the past two days have not escaped the queen's eyes, she wants to see what Pei Shu has found.

Pei Shu, like the queen, didn't find anything, and when he was asked, his heart was still on fire: "Queen Mother, if the sons find out something, they can't hide it from your eyes." ”

"What do you mean by this, this palace is not all for your good." The queen's anger was also instantly provoked, "You want to take care of these bad things when this palace, but your father said that if you don't satisfy him with what you do, you, the prince, will do it!" ”

Pei Shu took off the belt that symbolized the crown prince: "You and I rarely take the position of this prince, who loves it!" ”

"Oh, hey, my prince! This is unacceptable! Gonggong Xu pounced on him and hugged Pei Shu's hand tightly to prevent him from making trouble.

The queen's whole body was trembling, and she pointed at him for a long time before she made a sound: "Okay, good, you are really good, if you really don't want to be this prince, you have the ability to go to your father and ask for your resignation now!" ”

"If you have something to say, you are mother and son, what can't you say, why bother to be angry here for an outsider!" Mama Xu helped the queen to calm down while persuading.

Gonggong Xu was relieved to see that Pei Shu's hands were no longer pulling down, and after letting go of his hands, he carefully sorted them out for him before persuading: "The queen mother is really heartbroken for you, you can also be considerate of the mother." ”

"The son knows his mistake, and asks the queen mother to punish him!" Pei Shu knelt down with a cold face.

Seeing this, the queen only snorted coldly: "Go back to your East Palace and think about it, if you can't think clearly, don't come to see this palace." ”

Everything that happened in the capital will not affect the movement of the border, except for a few flickering lights on the city wall, Yucheng is dark everywhere, Shen Jiahe took the three of them to patrol back and forth in the dark night, but it saved Pei Yuan a lot of thought.

Qin Mu led two teams to attack the city at night, and the deputy commander stood under the city tower and looked at a few small soldiers on the city wall, and smiled contemptuously: "Leave these little minions to me." ”

After receiving the bow and arrows from his subordinates, the deputy commander aimed at a few small soldiers upstairs, and a few arrows broke through the air, and a few people upstairs just wore out a few muffled snorts and fell.

Qin Mu's laughter came from the darkness: "The deputy commander's archery skills are getting better and better, and the arrows are not missing!" ”

"Prizes, prizes!"

Qin Mu waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him were still attacking the city, and the dead city that was unguarded was smashed open without blowing away, and Qin Mu led people through the city gate, as if entering a no-man's land.

When the last soldier walked by, several of the soldiers upstairs suddenly sneaked up again, and one of them looked down, and then waved to his companion: "It's okay, let's go down and close the city gate!" ”

A few people tiptoed down from the city tower, and another person laughed in the back: "Our acting skills are really good, and the deputy commander still thinks that he is really so powerful!" ”

The person in front also laughed: "You can't do that, hum is too fake, if it weren't for the night, you would definitely have to wear a goof." ”

A few people had already gone down the city tower while talking and laughing, and closed the open city gate again, and the sound made when the heavy gate was closed made Qin Mu's heart chuckle.

He quickly turned around and looked behind him, the originally wide open city gate was closed again, and several vague figures were exactly the same as those seen on the city tower before, he was shocked, and his mouth had already reacted: "There is fraud, quickly retreat!" ”

"It's too late, it's too late!" A ghostly voice came from behind him, and Qin Mu looked up again, and it was Shi Xiangjie's face.

"It's you!" General Shi's beloved son, so General Shi is also here, they are being put together!

Shi Xiangjie no longer gave him a chance to think, raised his sword and waved the soldiers who had been ambushed on both sides of the main road, and the Pei army beat the Qin clan to the ground with absolute suppression.

In less than a stick of incense, only a few personal guards left by Qin Mu and the deputy commander, and when they learned that victory was hopeless, the deputy commander wanted to capture one of the other party's generals as a threat and send him away.

Capture the thief and capture the king first, the deputy commander resists on the one hand, and observes where the opponent's generals are, the striker Shi Xiangjie is inseparable from Qin Mu, and a man with extraordinary skills behind him can't see clearly in the dark, but looking at his skills, he is by no means an ordinary young general.

Shen Jiahe faintly saw the deputy commander's intention in the dark, she glanced at Yang Shuo's position, quietly walked around behind him, and took out a silver needle and stabbed it on the horse's buttocks.

The horse was frightened and ran a few steps forward, leaving the protective circle of the soldiers, Yang Shuo was quickly exposed to the eyes of the deputy commander, he was dressed conspicuously, and the soldiers around him were deliberately protecting him from harm, he must be one of the important people.

The deputy commander pulled the people around him over to protect him, and he bent his bow and arrow at Yang Shuo's chest, and the bow and arrow in his hand missed the point, and an arrow hit Yang Shuo's shoulder.

Yang Shuo was injured, the soldiers around him were in a small mess, the deputy commander was about to step forward to arrest someone, Pei Yuan rushed over from the side, he raised his sword and stabbed at the deputy commander's right hand, and when he was in pain and retreated, he followed in time, and after several fights, he was finally taken down.

Qin Mu took advantage of the chaos and ran away, Shi Xiangjie only had time to subdue and tie up the others, threw them together with the deputy commander and ordered: "Take them all back and take strict care!" ”

Yang Shuo grabbed his arm and his face turned pale in pain, Shen Jiahe stepped forward to take a look, and the arrow cluster had been completely trapped, it was also fateful, if he hit the position of the heart, I am afraid that even the Great Luo Immortal would not be able to save it.

"Send Yang Jianjun back to heal his wounds." Shen Jiahe ordered Yuan Yang and Yuan Xu, who were following behind him.

After going back, Shen Jiahe asked Liuyu to be grateful to boil some hot water, ready to clean Yang Shuo's wounds for a while, and when she came back after giving the order, she saw that Yuan Yang was about to pull out the arrow for the prison army, he grabbed the tail of the arrow with one hand and was about to pull it out, Shen Jiahe hurriedly stopped: "Stop!" ”

She walked in before continuing: "If you pull it out like this, it will cause him to do it a second time, and he may still bleed at that time." ”

Yang Shuo glanced at her disdainfully: "The princess also knows how to heal." ”

"Some, it's more than enough to pull out an arrow for you." Shen Jiahe smiled, took out his dagger and shook it in front of Yang Shuo's eyes, "Use this to ensure that it is clean and neat." ”

Yang Shuo looked at the bright blade, his face turned pale and pale: "You, you, you, you are going to murder!" ”
