The kneeling guard tilted his head slightly, his mouth wide open, and looked at the Khan King, who was panting and dancing with his scimitar raised.

He swallowed hard twice and said in a low voice: "Qi Great Khan, there are only two messengers sent by the Chu army......

Bars was stunned when he heard this, and looked down at the princess Qiqi, who was also looking up at him with strange eyes, and then he felt that he seemed to have lost too much of his temper just now!

He quickly stabilized his mind, puffed up his chest and slowly sat down. Gently putting the scimitar in his hand aside, he frowned and waved at the guard, "You stand down first, let the messenger of the Chu army wait patiently, and this king will summon them when he summons them." ”

Turning his head, he said to the princess and his aphorisms: "Ai Concubine, quickly bandage this king, wrap it tightly, don't ooze a trace of blood, it's best to look unscathed, so that the envoys of Chu Ying can't see that this king is seriously injured." ”

After bowing his head and thinking for a moment, he shouted outside the tent again: "Come, send an order to the king's guards, fully armed in front of the tent, to cheer me up!" Let the messenger of Da Chu see the mighty and unyielding strength of my grassland warriors, and they can fight! ”。

The two messengers of the Chu army were left in the air for more than an hour before they finally waited for the summons of the steppe khan.

The two of them passed through the array of swords and spears to the tent of the king of Khan. This time, Bars did not keep the two of them waiting, and immediately summoned them to the interior.

One of the two messengers covered half of his cheek with a scarf, and the other held a wooden box in his hand.

After the messenger who covered half of his cheek saluted slightly, he straightened his waist and said in a loud voice, "On the orders of General Guan of the Great Chu Dingbei, the two of us have come to pay a visit to the Great Khan of the Steppe Alliance, and at the same time I want to present you with a gift. ”

Hearing this, Bars couldn't help but raise his head curiously, staring at the messenger who had spoken. He was very curious: how could there be someone in the Chu army camp who spoke fierce language so fluently?

When he saw half of the person's face, he couldn't help but gasp: this person's appearance was obviously not from Middle-earth, but a member of the Great Fierce Clan!

Traitor? Scum! Bals had a fire in his chest, raised his hand and stroked the golden mustache on his lips, gritted his teeth and asked, "How much benefit did that Da Chu's thief give you, so that you can forget your ancestors and recognize the thief as your father?!" ”。

A sneer crossed the emissary's lips and replied, "Why did the King Khan say that? Yes, my ancestors have lived in this vast grassland for generations. But when my relatives were completely killed, there was no place for me to stand on the Nuo Prairie, and I was still being hunted down and killed, I vowed to abandon the darkness and surrender to the light, return to Dachu, and avenge my relatives and friends who died unjustly at all costs! …… All this is due to you, the Great Khan! ”。

Bars was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he searched in his mind for a moment, but he didn't figure it out. I had to sigh softly, lowered my eyes and said, "Didn't you say that the head of the Great Chu thief also gave this king a gift?" Present! ”。

Song Yu turned his head to the strong man beside him who was holding the wooden box, and after the man bowed his head slightly, he opened his legs, strode forward, put the wooden box in his hand on the desk in front of Bars, and walked back without saying a word.

Bars's eyes widened as he stared at the black-and-gray wooden box in front of him, and there was a sense of déjà vu. He raised his hand to pick up a dagger and gently opened the lid of the wooden box.

A bloody human head was in sight, and the deceased's protruding godless eyes stared at him in a stunned manner. Startled, Bars threw away his dagger and involuntarily got up to dodge, inadvertently pulling the wound in his abdomen, and immediately sweated profusely.

Inside the wooden box was the head of Princess Qiqige's own brother, the head of the rising sun under his men!

Bars gritted his teeth, struggling to endure the sharp pain in his abdomen as he struggled to suppress the shock and anger rolling in his chest.

At this moment, Song Yu opened his mouth and said loudly: "My family's Great Chu Dingbei Wang Guan General said: I received a meeting gift from the Great Khan of Bars before Feihong Pass. There is a saying in Middle-earth: Come and don't be rude! In front of the two armies that day, the general only wanted to capture him alive, and he failed to pick your Excellency under the horse with a single shot, so that you escaped alive, which is very regrettable! General Guan asked me to tell Your Excellency not to hide in Tibet anymore and run around, because both sides are very tired. It's the gentlemen who make an appointment with the time and place, and do it again! Either accept the letter of surrender, hand over the table, promise never to violate my Great Chu border from now on, and ask the Great Khan to give a letter. ”

Bars suddenly raised his red eyes and shouted, "Arrogant! You little messenger, the scum of the fierce clan, dare to speak nonsense in front of this king, full of nonsense, you really don't know whether you are alive or dead! In the last decisive battle, although my grassland warriors had a small setback, the Great Chu thief army also suffered heavy casualties, and it was the end of the crossbow, don't you know when you are the king?! ”。

Song Yu held his head high and laughed: "Respected Great Khan, why deceive yourself? Among the several generals of the Prairie Alliance, Chagan Temur has already been in a different place, and the rising sun under your nose is dry and dead, and you want to come to my house Dingbei Wang Guan to stab you with that shot will not make you suffer, right? You and I know how much money you have! As for the next, if you dare to come to the coalition camp, you don't plan to go back alive, what can you do with me?! The steppe coalition is really only a small setback as you said, so why do you take them to hide in Tibet? ”。

Bals stood up with his scimitar in his hand, the inconspicuous scar on his face leaping suddenly, and he exclaimed, "Someone! ”。

Hearing this, more than a dozen guards armed with scimitars rushed in, surrounded the two messengers of Da Chu, and waited for the Great Khan to give an order to chop them into pulp.

Bars took a deep breath and spat it out again. He suddenly put down the scimitar in his hand, a strange smile appeared on his lips, and his eyes stared at Song Yu and said slowly: "This king has every reason to break the two of you into pieces today!" However, the two countries are not at war, not to mention that the king of this Khan still has to bother you to bring a message to the head of the Great Chu thief army: His method of agitation is useless to the king of Khan! Want a quick fix and get out of the way? I won't be fooled easily! ”。

After that, he turned his head, didn't look at Song Yu and the others again, waved his hand at the guards beside him, and said, "Knock these two out of the barracks!" Remember, spare them two dog lives. ”

When everyone else had left the tent, Khan Bars raised his hand to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead, glanced worriedly into the wooden box, gently closed the lid, and collapsed weakly on the ground, frowning, and closing his eyes slightly.

In the barracks of the Ma family's army.

Ma Rushuang, who was dressed in military uniform, turned around suddenly, with tears in her eyes, and said to the "hairy worm" dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Mao, I have always been resolutely opposed to letting Miss Mu go and risk herself. Now that she has really failed, she has given her life in vain! ”。

"Hairy Worm" lowered his head, rubbed his big hands full of calluses, and sighed softly with a red face: "I was just a proposal at the beginning. When my Ma Jiajun fought side by side with the men and horses of the King of Pingnan to resist the rebellion, I knew that the King of Pingnan had a habit of finding some fans in the local area to drink and have fun before going to war. It is said that this can boost morale, and secondly, to be auspicious, which is why this decision is made. ”

Ma Chengen raised his hand and interrupted: "Forget it, General Mao is also for my Ma family." As the saying goes, if the thief catches the king first, if Miss Mu can succeed in one blow, it will save us a lot of strength. What's more, it is the result of everyone's final discussion, and Miss Mu herself has that courage and courage! It's just a pity......".

Gao Ming on the side clasped his fists and said: "Young master, eldest lady, General Mao, the matter has come to this, everyone doesn't have to blame themselves too much." Now the Chu thieves are menacing, the number of men and horses is more than double that of our side, if we want to win more with less, we need to carefully consider the strategy of the battle! ”。

Several people nodded in unison, and their faces became solemn.

A thick layer of fog shrouded this ancient land, and the imperial palace in the capital was also full of fog.

"Squeak" The door sounded, and an old eunuch with a withered face bent down and shrunk his neck, holding a lantern in his hand, leading a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest to walk sneakily in the cold and narrow corridor of the harem.

"Thank you father-in-law for leading the way." The middle-aged Taoist priest whispered in the old eunuch's ear, and at the same time stuffed the white silver in his hand into the sleeve of the old eunuch's jacket without saying anything.

The old eunuch weighed the weight of the things in his sleeves, nodded with satisfaction, the dense wrinkles on his face gradually dissipated, and whispered: "Come in, don't let the concubine wait for a long time." With one hand, he gently pushed open the heavy wooden door of a side hall.

The middle-aged Taoist priest raised his hand and straightened his clothes, raised his feet and stepped over the high threshold, and quietly stepped inside.

After entering, the middle-aged Taoist priest bowed his head and walked a few steps, then knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the front and said: "Poor Dao is in the mouth of Niangniang, come to pay homage to the noble concubine Niangniang, Niangniang Chitose Chitose!" ”。

The golden concubine in the seat waved her hand, and ordered the palace ladies and eunuchs in the hall to retreat, and then slowly spoke: "I have heard the name of the Dao for a long time, and I finally found you." You didn't meet anyone on the road, did you? And look up and talk back. ”

The middle-aged Taoist priest kowtowed again and again: "Niangniang has the grace of knowing the poor road, and the death of the poor road is not enough to repay it!" Along the way, there was Xue Gonggong to take care of him, and he didn't meet anyone. As he spoke, he took out a shining brocade box from his bosom and held it high above his head.

Jin Guifei asked curiously, "What is this?" Do you know what I am secretly recruiting you to the palace for? ”。

The middle-aged Taoist priest slowly raised his head and said: "On the way, Gonggong Xue roughly talked to Poor Daoyan, and in the brocade box is the elixir that Poor Dao has studied for many years and refined for ten years. This time, she was loved by her mother, and she came to offer it to the saint and her mother free of charge. After taking it, it will definitely make the saint and Niang Niang Luan Feng and Ming, enjoy the joy of fish and water at the same time, and be young forever and immortal! ”。

Jin Guifei couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly stood up, couldn't wait to take a few steps forward, reached out to take the brocade box, and gently opened it to find out.

Under the flickering light, two red pills the size of pigeon's eggs shone in the gorgeous and shiny brocade box, exuding a festive and alluring luster and wisps of dark fragrance.
