"You're so resting."

Su Quandang stood up and walked towards the door.

When he opened the door, there was a soldier holding a letter outside the door, and when he saw Su Quandang, he said: "Su Shuai, there is an urgent report of flying pigeons in Dangyang County!" ”

Su Quan's brows suddenly condensed at this moment, and he took the bamboo tube and pulled out the letter. As soon as I saw it, I couldn't help but be angry, "The Yuan thief is hateful!" ”

The content of the letter is very short: Yuan thieves attacked the city, Liu Jun was assassinated on the patrol of the Great Wall, and Su Shuai was careful.

Su Quandang angrily smashed the letter to the ground, but his eyes were a little red.

In the past, Liu Zaiyuan was the deputy commander of his Tiangang Army, and later he was the commander of the Tianli Army of his Zhenbei Military Region. It's just that although Liu Zaiyuan has always been Su Quandang's subordinate, the two have a very good relationship, and when Su Quandang was just in charge of the Zhenbei Military Region in the past, it was thanks to Liu Zaiyuan's great help, and it was a real year-old friend. Now that Liu Zaiyuan has been assassinated, how can he not be angry in his heart? How can it not hurt?

Seeing Su Quandang like this, the soldier who delivered the letter also had slightly red eyes, and said, "Su Shuai mourns." ”

He is an old pawn in the Tiangang army, and when Liu Zaiyuan was in the Tiangang army before, he was not less cared for by Liu Zaiyuan.

In the hearts of all the soldiers, Liu Zaiyuan is not only a military commander, but also their elder. The majesty is far less heavy than that of Su Quandang, but it is easier for people to get close.

"You're waiting here."

Su Quandang took a few heavy breaths, said to the soldier, and turned to enter the house.

When I entered the house, I sat down directly in front of the bookcase.

Zhou Qianluo on the bed looked at him like this, and there was a little worry in her watery eyes.

Su Quandang didn't look at her, he only polished the ink by himself and wrote the paper.

In a few minutes, he walked out of the room again. handed the two letters to the soldier and said, "This one is sent to the palace, this one is sent to Dangyang County, go quickly!" ”

The soldier nodded and hurriedly ran away.

Su Quandang looked up at the night sky, gritted his teeth and said, "If you want to fight, then I will fight with you!" ”

Following.

The deputy palace master of Guigu led a large army to the border of Lizhou East Road.

It is surrounded by mountains.

The army trekked through the mountains and rivers, but did not have the slightest scruples, and planned to cross the mountains to the depths of the Lizhou East Road.

The Imperial Palace of Zhongxing Mansion in Western Xia.

Li Xiushu received the envoys of the New Song Dynasty in the main hall.

She still sat behind the curtains, but it seemed to make her more majestic than before.

The ministers in the palace stood still, and only Zhongsun Qifu was given the honor.

"Xuanxin Song envoys come to see you!"

With the sharp shout of the old eunuch next to Li Xiushu, the sound was transmitted outside, and an envoy wearing a new Song official robe walked into the hall.

The official robe of the New Song Dynasty is not like the Great Song Dynasty, but it is similar to the official robe of Dali.

This made the minister about fifty years old, with a goatee, an indifferent demeanor, and a bit of calmness.

When he arrived at the palace, he bowed his hand to Li Xiushu, "Ning Jianbi, the envoy of the New Song Dynasty, has seen the emperor of Western Xia. ”

"Let's get flat!"

Li Xiushu's shallow voice came out from behind the curtain, "You came to see me, what's the matter?" ”

Ning Jianbi said bluntly: "It is not good for my army to attack the Song Dynasty, and I want to withdraw my troops by taking advantage of the east road of Daolizhou, and I also ask the emperor for permission." ”

Li Xiushu only sneered, "You have more than 100,000 troops in the New Song Dynasty, and you want to borrow from my Lizhou East Road, do you think I will be relieved to agree?" ”

There are ministers in the palace who are also sarcastic.

Ning Jianbi said: "I borrow the way for the army, and I will not disturb the people in the emperor's territory, and I will go around the city when I encounter it." ”

Li Xiushu sneered again, "Empty mouth and white teeth." Your army is more than 100,000 people, and when you encounter a city, you will go around, will the army be hungry with the bark of barren grass and trees? ”

Ning Jianbi arched his hand again, "This is the reason why the minister came to ask to see the emperor." Our dynasty asked the emperor to sell grain to our dynasty, and our dynasty should buy it at the market price. In addition, after our army returns to China, our emperor is willing to thank the emperor with 100,000 taels of silver and 10,000 pieces of silk cloth. ”

He seemed confident.

Li Xiushu's voice sounded in the curtain again, "You guys have some sincerity. Have you ever thought that my Western Xia and the Song Kingdom are allies, and I borrow the way from you, what does the Song Kingdom think? ”

Ning Jianbi said: "The Yuan Dynasty has hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the northern frontier of the Song Kingdom, and the Song Dynasty is dissatisfied, do you dare to do anything to the emperor?" ”

Li Xiushu said: "If you can be treacherous, you will eventually be scolded by the world." In this way, if you are really sincere, you will first send 100,000 taels of silver and 10,000 pieces of silk cloth to our court, and then send 5,000 war horses, and I will order Pang Hongguang to let you borrow the way, and raise grain and grass for you, how about it? ”

Ning Jianbi was slightly stunned, "Your Majesty...... Our dynasty suffered heavy losses in the territory of the Song Kingdom, and these five thousand horses ......"

"Humph!"

Before Li Xiushu could speak, there were Western Xia ministers in the palace who snorted angrily and said, "Your Majesty, according to the ministers, you can't let those new Song troops enter the country!" Who knows what they will do? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty! The army of the New Song Dynasty is more than 100,000, if it is in chaos on the East Road of Lizhou, won't our dynasty suffer deeply? ”

"Ask the emperor to take back his fate!"

Ning Jianbi's face gradually became a little ugly.

Li Xiushu chuckled and said, "Lord Ning, you heard it." I don't want to let you pass through the aisle of the new Song Army! ”

Ning Jianbi gritted his teeth, "The minister agreed instead of the emperor." On the next day, he ordered the country to send silver taels, cloth and war horses, and only begged the emperor to help my new Song Dynasty tide over this difficulty. ”

"Your Majesty, you can't agree!"

"Your Majesty! Think again! ”

Many Western Xia ministers in the hall shouted one after another.

They really didn't want Li Xiushu to agree to let the new Song army borrow it.

The national strength of Western Xia is the weakest, and the east road of Lizhou is only 20,000 troops. If the New Song Army is not allowed to borrow the road, it can still be blocked along the mountain, but if it is necessary to borrow the road, and wait for the New Song Army to reach the depths of the Delizhou East Road, then it is really impossible for anyone to take the New Song Army. Although it is unlikely that the New Song Army will still have the heart to capture the Lizhou East Road under such circumstances, who is absolutely sure?

"Silence!"

Li Xiushu snorted. The ministers in the palace stopped talking.

Li Xiushu said again: "When I see your new Song Dynasty things in the territory of Dexixia, I will send Pang Hongguang to borrow the Tao." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ning Jianbi was overjoyed, said goodbye, and hurriedly withdrew from the hall.

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Please think twice!"

Many of the ministers in the palace became agitated.

Li Xiushu only said: "I have my own cost-effective." Retreat! ”

"Retreat from the ......"

The old eunuch next to him shouted.

All the ministers in the palace were silent, so they had to walk outside.

After everyone left, Li Xiushu got up from the dragon chair and left the hall. When she was only walking on the road, there were eunuchs who helped her support the curtains.

Ning Jianbi left the Western Xia Palace.

Only most people didn't expect that the corner of the new Song envoy's mouth showed a sneer at the moment he just left the palace, "The woman is greedy for profit and short-sighted!" No matter how much money you have, in the end it's not my court? ”

When he returned to his mansion, there were soon carrier pigeons flying towards Jiading Mansion.

Ning Jianbi is Ning Jianbi of Dali and Ning Jianbi of Guigu Academy. It's just that what he learned was not marching and fighting, but the lotus tongue.

Only this older disciple in the Ghost Valley Academy Palace is afraid that he doesn't know that the ill-fated Li Xiushu really has more thoughts than many people in this world.

In the end, who will use whom, and in the end, it will be who will kill the deer. At this point, no one can tell.

Lee so-sook returned to the dormitory.

There were only her and the old eunuch in the room, and she no longer had to cover herself with a curtain. Revealing the figure, the bulging belly is quite obvious.

Li Xiushu lowered her head and stroked her belly, at this time, she didn't look like an empress, just like an ordinary mother. The expectation in that eye, the doting gloss, can't be faked at all.

The old eunuch said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, you promised to borrow the New Song Dynasty." At this time, do you want to inform Song Guo's side? ”

Li Xiushu only smiled, "What's so good about this, Song Guo has ears and eyes everywhere, and the news will always reach them soon." It is not necessarily a bad thing for them to think that my Western Xia is no longer their ally, so that their Song State will feel like a man's back, and they will deal with the Yuan Dynasty harder. When the new Song army passes through the east and west roads of Lizhou, and I recover the east and west roads of Lizhou, the little man will know what I am planning to do. When they repelled the Yuan Dynasty army, he would come and let me and him work together to destroy the New Song Dynasty. ”

"Your Majesty."

The old eunuch bowed down and said, "What if the one doesn't come to invite you to join forces to attack the New Song Dynasty?" ”

Li Xiushu stroked her stomach and smiled softly: "Then I will send troops to fight by myself." If he takes down the territory, he will never send troops to fight my army back, right? ”

"But if the one doesn't care about flesh and blood......"

"Heh, he's not like that."

Li Xiushu only replied with a chuckle, and then muttered in a low voice: "If he was so reckless, he wouldn't say that I don't miss my personal feelings." What a funny little man! ”
