Chapter 231: Fighting wits and courage do not give in
On the evening of 20 July, the delegation stayed in the southwest of Dongshengzhou, and at noon on the same day, the delegation of the Western Xia family also entered the territory of Yulin. This time, the Western Xia sent to greet his relatives was the Urad general Ma Tinghai, who was responsible for the defense of the northeastern provinces, accompanied by 2,000 palace tent troops and 1,000 Chaoge banner warriors.
The tent army of the Xixia Palace sounds good, but the combat effectiveness is not a little worse than that of the Liaopi Room Army, but most of the tent army of the Xixia Palace is composed of the sons and daughters of the nobles in the country, and they are sent to welcome their relatives to show respect. To really protect the mission, you have to rely on the more than 1,000 tide flag warriors. In the northeast of Western Xia, there are many tribes, and the Chaoge Banner warriors are carefully selected, these people are skilled in archers and horses, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong.
According to the rules, Yelu Nanxian is the future queen of Western Xia, and it is reasonable that Ma Thorn Sea will come to Dongshengzhou to pay a visit.
Li Xiuzheng arranged for the guards to guard all corners of the Recruitment Division, and after arranging a qiē matter, he was about to sit in the room and drink saliva, when there was one more person in the room. Jerusha held an iron helmet in his hand, and kept his hair a little wet, and on a hot day, he wore an iron helmet, if it wasn't hot, it would be a hell of a thing. Immediately pushed to the table by the cold water, Li Xiuzheng asked lightly, "General Yelu, why are you here?" ”
Jerusha was also thirsty, and it was not enough to drink a bowl, so he added some water to himself, and only then did he wipe his mouth and say what he meant.
"General Li, just now the scout came with the news that Ma Tinghai has led people to Dongshengzhou, and it is estimated that they will arrive in half an hour!"
"It's quite fast" Li Xiuzheng was still a little surprised, although Yulin and Dongshengzhou are not far away, they are also dozens of miles away. Now the mission has just entered Dongshengzhou. The sea of thorns hurried over. Isn't it a little too anxious?
"Hehe, in fact, it's not unusual, I also heard that someone is going to rob my relatives, so I am so anxious, after Ma Tinghai comes, I also ask General Li to protect the princess, and other things will be handled by this general!"
"One qiē listen to General Yelu" is also a coincidence, and the words just fell. There were guards in front of him who came to spread the word, saying that the general of Western Xia Urat had come to pay a visit.
Li Xiuzheng and Yelu Sha glanced at each other at the same time, the two nodded, and then separated, Ye Lu Sha went to meet Ma Thorn Hai, while Li Xiuzheng walked to the back hall living room, at this time the officials of Dongsheng Prefecture had just dispersed, and Yelu Nanxian, who was dressed in an orange gauze shirt, was sitting on the main seat, sipping fragrant tea with great interest, and there was a maid behind her rubbing her shoulders. Next to him, Xiao Ana bowed his head and said these things. Seeing Li Xiuzheng walk in, Xiao Ana stood up straight. With a habitual smile on his face.
Touching his chest with one hand, he bowed slightly, "Your Royal Highness Princess, the general of Xixia Urat Ma Tinghai came to pay a visit." ”
"Sea of Thorns? It's pretty fast, let him in! ”
Yelu Nanxian said, Meimu also glanced at Xiao Ana next to her, and Xiao Ana nodded slightly. The eye contact between the master and servant made Li Xiuzheng wonder, and he couldn't help but give Xiao Ana an inquiring look, Xiao Ana didn't pay attention to Li Xiuzheng's eyes at all, and looked ahead with a pair of beautiful eyes.
Soon Yelu Sha led Ma Thorn Sea to the back hall, and at this time, Li Xiuzheng stood behind Ye Lu Nanxian, a competent bodyguard. This thorny sea has a strange body, tiger eyes and an eagle nose, a gourd-shaped head, and a beard on that face, which makes him live like a barbarian. In the past hundred years, the Khitan and the party have admired the Han culture, especially the Western Xia people, who pay more attention to things than the Great Song Dynasty, and most of them are elegant and extraordinary in terms of dress, and it is really rare to have a rough image like Ma Tinghai. Don't look at Ma Thorn Hai is a little ridiculous, but Li Xiuzheng and the others don't dare to underestimate him at all, Xixia can have a peaceful border, but it is all a blessing that dragged this Ma Thorn Sea.
The Western Xia produced horses, but the army was not strong, especially the western Uighurs often attacked, and the Western Xia army was repeatedly defeated and defeated. Maybe it's because God has opened his eyes, in the past ten years, there have been a few brave generals in Western Xia, such as Li Bingzuo, the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, Helian Tieshu, the defense envoy of Xiazhou, and the other is Ma Tinghai, the general of Wulate. Among them, if you talk about scheduling in the bureau, it should be Li Bingzuo, this Li Bingzuo was born in the royal family, according to his seniority, even Li Qianshun has to call him uncle. Helian Tieshu is strong in scheming, especially the group of Yipintang warriors under his hands, and the fiercest battle is this sea of thorns.
To Li Xiuzheng's surprise, there was a young man behind Ma Tinghai, this young man was dressed in silver chain mail, with a handsome face. I really didn't expect to meet Murong Fu when I came to Dongshengzhou.
As soon as they entered the living room, Ma Jianhai and the two of them bowed and saluted, and shouted, "General Ma Tinghai of the Minister Urat and Li Yanzong, the commander of Yipintang, see the princess!" ”
"Excuse me!" Yelu Nanxian didn't raise his eyelids, and his voice was flat.
Ma Tinghai and the two of them didn't care, and they sat on the right-hand seat, and the two of them sat very upright, especially Li Yanzong, who stared ahead with his eyes and looked very serious.
Ma Jianhai came to Dongshengzhou to pay a visit, as for the robbery of relatives, he only needs to discuss with Yelu Sha and Li Xiuzheng, half a pillar of incense time, said some nonsense, Ma Zhu Hai said goodbye, but what is surprising is that when the two were walking out with Yelu Sha, Xiao Ana, who had been silent, said softly, "Please also ask General Li Yanzong to stay, the princess still has something to ask you!" ”
Li Yanzong couldn't help frowning, Ma Tinghai didn't feel anything, nodded and smiled, "General Li, since the princess has something to ask, you can leave a good life to reply!" ”
"Yes!"
After Yerusha and the others retreated, Xiao Ana motioned for Li Yanzong to sit on the seat, without raising his right hand, and said softly, "You all go down!" ”
The maid who was waiting in the house did not dare to disobey, and bowed and withdrew from the drawing-room, and the last maid closed the door tightly. Li Yanzong's sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and the middle finger of his right hand lightly tapped the armrest of the chair. He was a little uneasy, and today was the first time he had seen the princess, so why did he always feel like he had been seen through?
If others leave, Li Xiuzheng will definitely not leave, of course, Xiao Ana didn't think about driving Li Xiuzheng out. Seeing Li Yanzong's somewhat cramped and uneasy expression, Ana moved the lotus step lightly, raised her right hand slightly, and laughed softly, "General Li, oh." No. It's Murong Gongzi. I have heard for a long time that Gusu Murong's kung fu is famous all over the world, I wonder if the son can show it to his servant? ”
Listening to Xiao Ana's words, Li Yanzong's heart tightened, and his brows stretched in an instant, "The last general doesn't understand it!" ”
Li Xiuzheng shook his head secretly, Murong Fu's concentration was still a lot worse, and as far as his expression changed just now, he had already admitted it. What's the use of being stubborn now? Sure enough, Xiao Ana shook her head directly, and Yelu Nanxian, who had been sitting firmly in the chair, also put down the teacup and slowly raised her head.
Compared with the past, today's Yelu Nanxian has a little more beautiful looks, and a pair of beautiful eyes are bright and fascinating.
Just at a glance, Murong Fu's heart was lifted, in this life, he has seen many women. There are not a few beautiful women, especially cousin Wang Yuyan. Her beauty is even more otherworldly, which makes people dare not touch it, but she has never felt a trembling heart. Recently, Murong Fu's heart trembled, knowing that this woman could not belong to him, but he still couldn't help but want to look at it twice.
"Murong Gongzi doesn't have to worry, this princess has no malicious intentions, leaving Gongzi behind, it's just to see the demeanor of Xia Dou Zhuanxing" Yelu Nanxian stood up, walked around, raised his left hand and pointed at Li Xiuzheng next to him, "Murong Gongzi, have you seen this general?" This is General Li Xiuzheng, the most outstanding young talent in my Great Liaopi Room Army, his best skill is the swordsmanship of subduing demons, I don't know if Murong Gongzi can do it? ”
Damn, Li Xiuzheng's face remained unchanged, but there was a burst of scolding in his heart, what kind of wind is Yelu Nanxian smoking, and he should study what kind of fighting and stargazing is moving, but don't let him practice the demon swordsmanship on the spot, then he must not show his stuffing on the spot? Sometimes she is afraid of something, Xiao Ana seems to be in order to cooperate with Yelu Nanxian, her eyes are flattering, she looks at Li Xiuzheng and smiles, "General Li, Murong Gongzi can't see each other, and now there are no outsiders in the hall, so it's better for the two of you to give each other some advice, and let the maid see your horizons." ”
Damn little girl, Li Xiuzheng, no, it's King Zhao Xiaojun, he now understands why the master and servant of Yelu Nanxian are muttering in secret just now, and he wants him to have a try with Murong Fu for a long time. Yelu Nanxian just wants to simply watch a martial arts competition? How is that possible? Then the only explanation is that Yelu Nanxian wants to see Murong Fu's true ability, so as to decide how to deal with Murong Fu.
is really worthy of being the princess of the Yao Ran clan, and before she married into Western Xia, she began to think about cultivating power. Yelu Nanxian's idea is not out of line, the question is whether he, the impostor Li Xiuzheng, dares to compete with Murong Fu, and this competition must not be revealed immediately?
What to do? Countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and in the end, Li Xiuzheng decided to take a gamble, he frowned, and glared at Yelu Nanxian very unhappily, "Princess, I'm sorry, the order that the last general got was to protect Her Royal Highness the princess, and the rest of the things have nothing to do with the last general." ”
"Huh?" Xiao Ana was full of surprise, at this time, even she found that Li Xiuzheng was a little wrong, with General Li's arrogance, once she met a martial arts master like Murong Gongzi, if she didn't ask for advice, it was really unreasonable. Could it be that General Li really took refuge in Yeluchun?
Yelu Nanxian was full of doubts in her heart, but she only had a pity expression on the surface, shrugged her shoulders, and chuckled, "Since General Li is unwilling, the princess will not force it, but it is a pity that she can't see the Murong family's famous skills." ”
Although he was speaking to Li Xiuzheng, Yelu Nanxian's beautiful eyes fell on Murong Fu, it is said that Murong Fu has experienced countless scenes, but today, he actually felt a little overwhelmed.
Murong Fu didn't want to stay in the hall anymore, he was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would definitely not be able to control himself. Bowing down, Murong Fu said slightly apologetically, "The last general still has something to do in Yulin, you need to leave quickly, and I hope for Princess Haihan!" ”
"Go ahead!"
"Thank you, princess!"
Turning around and leaving the living room, looking at the starry sky, Murong Fu exhaled a long breath, I really didn't expect that he Murong Fu would also be moved by a woman. However, he must quench this desire, and his feelings are a bit extravagant compared to the great cause of restoring the country.
After Murong Fu left, the two of Yelu Nanxian's master and servant also returned to their bedroom, and in the elegant room, Yelu Nanxian lay crookedly on the couch, sometimes stretching his eyebrows, sometimes wrinkling.
"Princess, General Li is eighty percent problematic, and he actually gave up such a good opportunity today!"
"Okay, let's not talk about him, let him go, if he can really help Yeluchun kidnap this princess, that's also his ability. It's that Murong Fu, who used it well, but it's a thousand-mile horse! ”
"It's a maxima if it's used well, so what if it doesn't work well?"
"Does it work? That's a man-eating beast. ”
Yelu Nanxian's beautiful eyes were radiant, and from Murong Fu's eyes, you could see how ambitious this man was. This person, you are not afraid of ambition, it depends on whether you can control the other party, Yelu Nanxian feels that he can control Murong Fu.
After a day's rest, the mission marched straight to Yulin City in the south, and just as Liaoxia was joining forces in the Jungar steppe, a heavily armed light cavalry swooped down from the northeast.
In the realm of Yulin, the golden river is berthed, and when the horse's hooves are raised, a killing is inevitable. (To be continued......)
