The rumor that the wise man is not applicable in this era, not because there is a lack of wise men in this era, but because the information is relatively closed in society, it is difficult for the wise to distinguish between right and wrong. Hot Books

This was the case in Ctesiphon, the former capital of the Sassanid Empire in Persia, where rumors have spread recently that the Caliph is going to marry a princess from Samarkand.

Ctesiphon, a group of residents drawn to the only central square in the city by a merchant-like man. In those days, the inhabitants relied on merchants, not only did they need to get the goods they needed from them, but also the merchants basically relied on them to spread the news from abroad.

"I tell you that the princess whom the caliph is about to marry will pass through this place."

"I've heard of this for a long time! We also know that the new princess is very beautiful! ”

"Then I have two pieces of news, one is good and one is bad, which one do you want to hear first?" The merchant's expression was mysterious.

"You say okay first, the days are too hard, we need good news to stimulate and stimulate."

The merchant nodded and said, "Then you have listened, the good news is that in order to celebrate the marriage of the new princess, the caliph is about to announce the abolition of the eleventh tax!" ”

"Huh? Are you sure? The residents almost cheered.

"It's never too late for you to rejoice when I'm done with the bad news." The merchant loudly suppressed the agitated residents.

"What's the bad news? As long as the titheflower tax is abolished, no bad news is worth mentioning! ”

"Hey, huh? The bad news is that in order to build a splendid palace for the beautiful princess, Ctesiphon, as well as the inhabitants of the old land of Persia, will be taxed five out of ten as payers for the cost of building the palace! ”

……

The rumors are so far-reaching that they pierce the nerves of the people of this region, from nobles to commoners, from soldiers to slaves. Half of the income is taxed, which is equivalent to a scimitar cutting half into the neck, and sooner or later it will die.

Ctesiphon and even the entire Persian region, like a calm lake, the crowd is turbulent, the undercurrent is surging, the dissatisfaction and inexplicable anger are all directed at the new princess that the caliph is about to marry......

One day, rumors arose, and the Holy Sect, which had been operating in secret, announced that in times of crisis, they stepped forward and outwitted the new princess who caused the trouble. The great Holy Church will come forward to persuade the princess to ask the caliph to retract his mandate and abandon his plan to build a palace.

The flame of hope illuminates the gloom in the hearts of the inhabitants of Ctesiphon, and people rush to tell each other and bring the good news to every corner......

"See? This is what the people want, the Persian people have not forgotten the glory of their ancestors, and if we guide them properly, they will reunite under our banner! ”

Shan, who followed her Lord after winter, crossed the heavily sealed Wuhu waters, passed through Zhanmu, crossed Mulu, and traveled thousands of miles back to Ctesiphon, hiding in the house of a ruined aristocratic cultist.

"Yes, Holy Lord is wise!"

Hundreds of sect members looked serious, some worshipped, some were desperate, and some were worried. Shan is the only representative of the Worried, who fears for the safety of the Holy Church and for the lives of her friends.

According to the plan of the Holy Lord, tomorrow, in the central square of Ctesiphon, they will organize a trial, and Su Zizi, as the princess of the caliphate, will be pushed to the forefront.

"Remember, I'm here to force the slut to promise in public to abolish the fifteen tax and cancel the palace engineering and construction plans. Yaqian, you take the opportunity to provoke everyone's fire and take advantage of the chaos to kill this slut. There is no turning back from the bow, and in the face of the Caliph's wrath, there is only one way to choose for the good and great Persian people, a bright road! ”

"Don't worry about the soldiers, there are already our people in their midst, everything is arranged......"

In Shan's opinion, the Holy Lord's face was very hideous, close to a state of madness.

What to do? Shan was very anxious, with the Holy Sect on one side and her friends on the other. Shan used to be quite conflicted and embarrassed, but it was a few months ago, in the war in the city of Beggar, she saw the blood, she saw the cruelty, she saw the devastation, the peace of Persia did not need to impose the war on her head. And what the Holy Lord did was to lead the Persian people into the abyss of war, which was so disastrous.

For the sake of the Holy Religion, for the sake of her friends, Shan finally made a decision when the last words of the Holy Lord landed, a decision that she believed was beyond the meaning of her life.

Save the Princess! Save Persia!

Su Zizi was locked up in an almost sealed stone room, months of traveling, and a long time without sunlight, making her already fair skin even paler, malnutrition caused blood to be completely lost, and she couldn't help but feel weak.

"Li Lang,"

The ordeal could not stop her endless obsession, although it was late at night, she did not feel sleepy, she felt, unlike before, this time, she had stayed here for a long time, and the ropes tied to her body had been removed, maybe this was their lair, that is, her limit was approaching.

"Are you thinking about me too? Do you hear me? Will you come to my rescue? ”

A small silver scimitar was held tightly in her hand, pressed against her face, and felt the distant warmth. The little scimitar was given to her by Li Huaitang, and she always tied the small scimitar to her calf.

In a predicament, Zizi can't feel the changes of time, can't feel the vicissitudes of time, but her thoughts are increasing day by day, most of the time, it is the little scimitar that gives her infinite sweet memories and heart-inducing thoughts.

Outside the door, there was a slight noise. Su Zizi raised her eyes nonchalantly, continuing her grief. Time is running out, in this world, except for her Li Lang, her only relative, everything has nothing to do with her.

The stone door was pushed open, and two obscene Persians walked in with bad intentions.

"You guys, what do you want to do?"

Su Zizi's worst fear still came, a small scimitar was held in her weak hands, aimed at the two Persians who came in.

"Hehe, Her Royal Highness the Princess, our brothers are worried about your loneliness, so they are here to accompany you, let you be happy, and escort you for a thousand miles in vain." The Persian directly ignored the small scimitar and slowly approached Su Xiaoniang with a smile.

Su Zizi was so anxious that she was forced to retreat to the corner of the wall, seeing that she couldn't stop the wolf's footsteps, she suddenly retracted the small scimitar in a hurry and put it across her neck: "Don't come here, I, I, if you come over again, I'll die here!" ”

The Persian stopped in a daze, as if he cared about this threat, but the smile on his face was still the same: "Yo, so stubborn, you will be on the road tomorrow, why not have fun in time?" ”

Su Zizi's face was desperate: "You, you go out, otherwise I will be bloodstained on the spot!" ”

"Huh?" The Persian suddenly pointed to the wall behind Su Zizi and shouted in horror: "Spider, there is a big spider behind you!" ”

The intimidation really worked, Su Zizi was a little surprised, and the Persian seized the opportunity to rush forward and knocked the knife out of Su Zizi's hand. Although Su Zizi desperately struggled to resist, she was helpless not to be the opponent of the two Persians who had been wolfed. The Persian wolves laughed wildly and dragged the lamb in their eyes down......

"Help, help!"

"Hehe, don't scream, no one can save you, you're going on the road tomorrow, it's a pity to be such a beautiful little lady, it's better to cheapen us before you die, come on!" While his companion held Su Zizi's hand, the Persian who spoke stood up and took off the clothes on his body.

"Haha, you'll be comfortable soon, I promise......"

Before he finished speaking, the Persian suddenly let out a miserable scream, staggered to the ground, and lay at Su Xiaoniang's feet, and a deep knife wound appeared on his back.

The other remaining Persian looked up in horror and saw a flash of blades and a hot current in his neck. The Persian sat on the ground, clasped his hands around his neck, and looked at the murderer in disbelief.

"Shan!"

A face familiar with being cursed thousands of times appeared in Su Xiaoniang's pupils after the Persians fell. Although Su Zizi already knew Shan's role in it, this was the first time she had seen her since she was kidnapped.

Shan held a scimitar tightly, shaking from panic and nervousness, "Zizi, yes, it's me, you, are you okay?" ”

The two young ladies were shocked, and it took a long time to come back to their senses.

"You, you liar, what do you want to do?"

Su Zizi nervously grabbed the knife on the ground, her voice was much higher because of excitement, and her trembling voice was mixed with complicated feelings.

"Shhhh Be quiet, I'm here to save you. ”

Shan tried to keep her voice as low as she could.

"Don't talk, just do what I say. I'll take you away, back to Qishi City, back to General Li. ”

The attraction of Qi Shicheng and General Li suddenly diluted Su Zizi's anger, and a trace of joy hit her heart that was close to despair, and her open mouth stopped talking, as long as there was hope to see Li Lang, who she thought about day and night, she didn't mind being deceived again.

Su Zizi blinked her doubtful eyes, a little excited, a little hesitant: "Really? ”

"It's too late, come with me, they'll find out if it's too late!" Shan stretched out her hand and pulled Su Zizi up, didn't care about explaining to her, and hurriedly walked out of the stone room.

During the day, Shan had already decided to risk her life to take Su Zizi away, and she took advantage of the opportunity to be on duty that night to put down several companions with ** powder, take out the key, and prepare to rescue Su Zizi. As soon as she touched the house where Su Zizi was being held, she met two daring Persians, she did not hesitate, gritted her teeth and extended a helping hand to Su Zizi in danger.

In the dead of night, Su Zizi changed into the Hu costume that Shan brought her, and then accompanied Shan to steal the camel, and sneaked out of the demon cave in a panic......

"Oh no, the caliph is gone!"

Two jagged screams rang out shortly after the two young ladies escaped from the cave, piercing the silence of the night.

Hearing the siren, the Holy Lord rushed to the scene in a rage. Everyone who followed lowered their heads in fear, no one dared to look directly at the Holy Lord who was brewing in the thunderstorm, the Caliph Princess was rescued by a traitor, and several of the bewitched night watchmen were proof!

"At the ends of the earth, catch them too, damn Shan, I'm going to skin her alive......"
