Chapter 82: Conspiracy
In a stone house of the Red Worm Tribe in the 100,000 mountains, Lin Qingqing and Elder Bai were under house arrest here, and no one gave them a chance to negotiate, she still searched for some news when she came, and she also knew about the people of the 5 tribes here, but unfortunately these 5 tribes have been incompatible since the war 10 years ago, and even have some vendettas against each other, when she was escorted to the Red Worm Tribe, she found that there were people from several other tribes here, and there were also people from the Shadow Demon Sect, she knew that the news she got was outdated, but there was no way, that thing happened relatively suddenly, The sect also sent people to this place temporarily, she was sure that these natives and the Shadow Demon Sect were planning a huge operation, which could completely change who the fast land on the border of the Song Kingdom belonged to.
She now very much wants to fly to Yunshi City to warn Li Chun that the natives' army is coming, and she must also go back to the capital to start reinforcements, because it is possible that Yunshi City will not be able to stop these natives.
Although she is a woman, she is also a member of the sect, she also knows the truth behind it, Xuantianmen finally reached an agreement with the royal family surnamed Zhao after several generations, and if she officially becomes the queen, then some of her children will also deal with Xuantianmen to cultivate, plus Xuantianmen is cultivating her medicine in large quantities, as long as a few years later, the entire Song Kingdom will actually fall under the control of Xuantianmen.
The border area is an important source area of the Song Dynasty, and this fast area cannot be lost, but if it is lost, the consequences are unimaginable.
At this time, the door opened, and it was Letu who came in, she was here to deliver food, and she would basically send them food and some drinking water twice each time, and this time was no exception.
Lin Qingqing said: "What about your leader? When will he have time to talk to me? Are you sincere in putting us under house arrest here without letting us leave or negotiating with us, what are you doing?"
Every time Lin Qingqing questioned Le Tu, she smiled slightly, and then she replied: "He will come over to talk to you at some time today, you wait a minute." After speaking, he ignored Lin Qingqing's attitude, just put the food and water in his hand on the table and exited the room again.
Lin Qingqing was a little relieved after hearing Le Tu's words, but now the chips in her hand are probably not attractive enough, these natives have basically been integrated, if you add a tough leader, this border area will definitely be in constant war.
At this time, Elder Bai on the side also asked worriedly: "Do you have confidence in the negotiation later?" I see that they don't want to talk to us inland people anymore, and they are ready to attack Yunshi City. ”
"We have already figured out a way to pass the news to Li Chun, and the news must also be passed on from the capital side. ”
Lin Qingqing reluctantly stepped into the chair, and she said, "It's too late!" Elder Bai, this native didn't start sooner or later, but chose to start it when the Song throne was fighting, do you think this matter is a coincidence?"
"They should have planned it a long time ago, and the manpower of these 5 tribes has been basically fused together, this is no longer like 10 years ago, they are divided into separate commands, they already have a unified execution, they are much stronger than 10 years ago, and the completion of the unification should be not long ago, doing a good job is the beginning of the battle for the throne, and now the natives who are fused together are already the most powerful force on the border, without the support of the central army, this Yunshi City is difficult to defend.
"I think there must be a mastermind behind them who is supporting and instigating them, otherwise it would be impossible for such a thing to happen with their overall situation and sources, and if they say that the source must have the support of the inland people, then the Shadow Demon Sect must be the transmitter of their news. ”
Lin Qingqing's analysis was roughly correct, and Elder Bai also agreed very much, she said: "I always feel that there are some coincidences that happened to His Highness, and we don't have enough manpower, so we were just assigned to the task here, so there won't be the Shadow Demon Sect interfering in this, right?"
After some things corresponded, it was really scary to think about it, Lin Qingqing also felt that something was wrong after hearing Elder Bai's analysis, but unfortunately it was too late now, the purpose of the group of people over there had been achieved, and now the future princess had become a prisoner again, and it would be basically impossible for the prince to compete for the throne if it continued like this.
At this time, the door was opened, and it was an indigenous man who came in, he looked at Lin Qingqing and the two, especially Lin Qingqing, who kept staring at him, his eyes were very aggressive, which made Lin Qingqing feel very uncomfortable, but there was no way, she knew that this person should be the leader here, she didn't expect to be so young and promising, and she didn't want to provoke him, otherwise the gains outweighed the losses.
The native man retracted his eyes and said, "My name is Sita, and I am also the biggest leader in the tribe, you should be the crown princess of the Song Kingdom, I don't know what kind of wind will blow you from the capital to our horns?"
He made it clear when he started, he had already gotten the news from the Shadow Demon Sect, and he was also warning Lin Qingqing not to play with those vain things, it was better to have something real.
At this time, Lin Qingqing can only quibble, she doesn't have a good way, these hillbillies actually have eyes, then you basically can't fool. She said: "We Xuantianmen came here to look for a herb, I didn't expect to alarm the patriarch, and I asked the patriarch to forgive me, I hope that the patriarch can give us some herbs for the sake of the prince, I think the prince will be grateful in the future." ”
Sita is not used to negotiating with these insiders, because there is too much politeness, and sometimes it is disgusting.
Sita: "Xingla, I know what you are doing here, I have already asked someone to prepare the herbs, I can give them to you later, I don't need the prince's heavy thanks, I need something from Li Chun's hand, I think it should be very easy for you to get that thing, right?"
Even Lin Qingqing didn't expect it to be so easy to get by, of course, Elder Bai didn't expect it to be like this, and the two of them asked in unison, "What is it?"
Sita took out a black bug totem from his pocket, handed it to Lin Qingqing and the two to check, and after the two checked it, they returned it to Sita, Lin Qingqing said very regretfully: "We have never seen this thing, and we don't know how this thing fell into the hands of General Li Chun, when we go back, we will definitely hand over this thing to the general and hand it over to the patriarch." ”
Sita said seriously: "This thing is an important heritage of our people, and it is also one of our beliefs, without it our people will lose their souls, I hope you inland people can understand." ”
Lin Qingqing and Elder Bai both nodded their heads in understanding at the same time.
Sita spoke earnestly again, "I don't want to see the lives of Marble City ruined, and I don't want to see my people die. If you give me this in a very short time, I won't send troops to conquer Marble City. ”
Lin Qingqing stepped forward excitedly and said, "Patriarch, please rest assured, we will definitely let Li Chun hand over this thing, and we will also send this thing to you in a long time." ”
"Due to the urgency of time, we also ask the patriarch to let you go, so that we can help you fulfill your wish, and we don't want to see a vendetta between the two peoples, thinking that the tragedy 10 years ago cannot be repeated in the hands of our generation. ”
At this time, Lin Qingqing and Elder Bai were both excited, both of them originally wanted to save a small life, and this person had already agreed to the matter of medicinal herbs, so they would have to go back and pay the errand, as for the matter of this patriarch, when they ran out, they would take care of so much, and then the central army of the capital would come here and wipe out all the natives here, what a good thing.
Sita clapped her hands, and a guard walked in, also carrying a plate with some herbs on it. He said, "These herbs have been taken by our people, so you can't pick them, so you should give them to you." ”
Lin Qingqing and Elder Bai hurriedly took it and put away all the herbs, and then said goodbye to the clansmen and left here, but they were stopped by Sita just as they were leaving, and Sita was very angry at this time.
Lin Qingqing asked cautiously: "Please rest assured that the things you explain will be completed by us, do you have anything else to command?"
Sita slapped him without thinking about it, and Lin Qingqing was knocked to the ground with a snap, and at this time, Elder Bai also ran over excitedly to see Lin Qingqing's situation, the two of them had been sealed when they were caught here, and now they can be said that they have no intention of resisting with ordinary people.
Sita was very angry and said, "Are you idiots or am I idiots?
"You woman, if I don't touch you, I will give you the greatest face, you still think you are a character, come and leave as you want?"
"I'm sorry!" Sita broke his phlegm and continued: "You old woman can go, remember what I told you, take this thing in your hands and deliver it to me the night after tomorrow at the latest, and I will slow down the attack on Yunshi City, otherwise you can ask Li Chun to wash his neck and wait, my army will be able to kill Yunshi City in the morning of 3 days." ”
Then he got up and said, "Another point is to send the herbs to the prince as soon as possible, and I still need him and his brother's infighting to consume the strength of the Song Kingdom." And his crown princess lives with me now, when he figured it out, he will come to pick her up again. ”
When Sita said this, they were already desperate, this is a conspiracy against the crown prince, against the Song State of a huge conspiracy, if Sita predicted, then the entire Song State will be sharply reduced in strength after the battle for the throne, and they, the natives, will become a new force to rise in the southwestern part of the Song State, and it is unstoppable, and it is bound to annex most of the territory of the Song State.
Elder Bai quickly left the Red Worm Tribe with the help of some indigenous soldiers and was heading towards Yunshi City, she had to speed up to complete the task left to her by the West Tower, now that Lin Qingqing was still in his hands, she also had to pass the news to the Prince's Mansion in the capital, hoping that the Crown Prince would find another way to deal with this matter.
