Chapter 289: It's Worth It

After the first battle from Wutong Plain, Chu Tianya felt that it was smooth sailing, even if it happened badly, it could become a good thing due to fate. Xiao Linglong joked that it may be the baby child in his belly who brought good luck to his father.

So Chu Tianya said in a serious manner that in the future, when the child is born, whether it is a boy or a girl, he will be named "Chu Jixiang".

This was very despised by Xiao Linglong, saying that he was neither elegant nor educated, and gave his children such ugly names. Chu Tianya laughed and said, the nickname is "auspicious"!

The next morning, Chu Tianya and his party packed up and prepared to leave Luoyang for Wutong Plain. Before leaving, Chu Tianya also went to Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, to say goodbye. Zhao Kai, the fallen prince who was sent to Luoyang as a hostage by his official royal brother, was very flattered, so he almost bowed down to Chu Tianya in turn.

When the titular ministers were greeting in the Luoyang Palace, Qingwei came to report that Xiao Ta, the envoy of Western Liao, the Empress Zhaode, was not smoking and knelt outside the palace gate, asking to see the King of Luoyang.

"This woman is quite good at picking the right moment." Chu Tianya smiled helplessly, and said to Zhao Kai, "Let His Royal Highness King Yun see you smile." Xiao Ta is not smoked, she is the sister of Neiko, she wants her subordinates to make some compromises and concessions on national affairs through this relationship, how can Weichen agree? ”

Zhao Kaicheng didn't know how to answer, and hurriedly said: "This...... The king of Luoyang can consider it himself, and he doesn't have to ask Xiao Wang. ”

"It's not going to work." Chu Tianya said with a smile, "Your Highness is the Henan general judge appointed by the official family, and he has the right to ask questions about big and small affairs. If you don't invite Xiao Ta Buyan into the palace, how about the whereabouts from His Royal Highness? ”

"No, no, that's not right!" Zhao Kai waved his hand again and again in a hurry, "How dare Xiao Wang make a decision on a major national matter?" ”

"Your Highness doesn't have to be humble." Chu Tianya said, "Someone is coming, please Empress Zhaode of Western Liao." ”

Zhao Kai smiled bitterly and scratched his head again and again. Who doesn't know that he Yun Wang Zhao Kai is just a puppet ornament placed in Luoyang Palace, but now Chu Tianya wants him to come and fall, I really don't know what medicine is sold in this gourd.

After a short time, Xiao Ta entered the palace without smoke, wearing a luxurious Khitan queen robe, coupled with a peach blossom face and a glorious demeanor, which made the young Yun King Zhao Kai's eyes straighten for a while.

After the ceremony, Chu Tianya said: "Empress Xiao, this one is the King of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Henan Mansion appointed by the imperial court is the general judge. All matters big and small, Chu has to ask His Royal Highness King Yun to decide. If the queen has a major national event to ask today, she might as well talk about it straight to the point in front of King Yun. ”

Xiao Ta frowned in confusion, but since Chu Tianya had already opened this mouth, she had no reason to let it go if it was an opportunity, so she said: "The concubine respectfully represents the Juer Khan of our country to form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty." In order to show sincerity, the concubine and the prince of our kingdom are willing to stay in Luoyang. I am willing to ask His Royal Highness King Yun and the King of Luoyang to be favorable! ”

Zhao Kai was stunned when he heard this, he had never heard of this kind of thing, so he looked at Chu Tianya in confusion and asked for help, and motioned for him to speak.

Chu Tianya deliberately turned a blind eye, drank tea by himself, and said lightly: "Your Highness decides!" ”

Zhao Kai and Xiao Ta were stunned: What does this mean?

Zhao Kai was even more blind: How can I decide? Am I okay with whatever I say?

Xiao Ta was very depressed for a while, and after thinking about it carefully, he finally figured it out: it turned out that Chu Tianya intended to give King Yun a few thin noodles; Moreover, he wanted me to make a guarantee and show sincerity in front of outsiders. The king in front of him is not so much a 'decider' as a witness...... Well, that's it!

So, Xiao Ta Buyan knelt down in front of Zhao Kai and Chu Tianya, and said: "If our country sincerely allied with the Great Song Dynasty and took the Great Song Dynasty as the suzerain, it is like the baby's hope for breast milk, and the hope of Qinghe for nectar......"

Xiao Ta said that there was a full cup of tea without repeating words, just to express the sincerity of the alliance between Western Liao and the Great Song Dynasty, and Chu Tianya was a little tired when he heard it.

Zhao Kai was even more stunned, one was amazed by the literary brilliance and eloquence of the woman in front of him; Moreover, it has been more than 100 years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, especially in recent years, where have I seen the envoys of Fanbang so desperate and crying to ask for peace with the Great Song Dynasty? It's common to extort money on your toes!

"The concubine is willing to ask the King of Yun and the King of Luoyang for mercy!" Xiao Ta finally finished speaking, and kowtowed on the ground, his scalp was broken, and blood flowed for a long time.

Zhao Kai couldn't sit still, it was just that such a big beauty was so low in front of two big men, and she also made a masochistic move to break her head and bleed, which was really a big scene. Zhao Kai left the throne in a hurry and walked down and hurriedly supported Xiao Ta Buyan, but instead came to intercede for her in front of Chu Tianya, "King Luoyang, Xiao Wang sees that Empress Zhaode is sincere, it is better to ...... Just promised her, right? ”

"It's all up to King Yun to decide. Your Majesty, I dare not have any objections. Chu Tianya put down the teacup and said with a smile.

"That'...... Xiao Wang agreed first for the king of Luoyang? Zhao Kai himself couldn't believe it.

Chu Tianya couldn't help but laugh, and repeated again, "It's all up to His Highness to decide. ”

"Good, good...... Well, yes! Promised! Zhao Kai wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, his expression was very embarrassed, "Empress Zhaode, regarding the details of the alliance, please also discuss with the King of Luoyang." Xiao Wang is here...... It is inconvenient to participate. ”

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!" Xiao Ta let out a long sigh of relief, and came to worship Chu Tianya after worshipping Zhao Kai, "Thank you, His Royal Highness the King of Luoyang!" ”

"Thank you for what I did, but King Yun helped you." Chu Tianya smiled indifferently, "I am about to leave Luoyang, and regarding the details of the peace alliance, I will ask the queen to discuss with King Yun and the military advisors Bai Xu, Meng De and others. After the discussion was completed, it was submitted to the Tokyo Imperial Court for approval. ”

"Okay."

"Your Highness, please take your leave." Chu Tianya got up and said goodbye.

"King Luoyang, please take care of yourself...... Please take care! Zhao Kaicheng sent him with trepidation. Xiao Ta followed all the way without smoke, and didn't dare to say a word.

Out of Luoyang Palace, Chu Tianya got on his horse and left. Xiao Ta Buyan and Zhao Kai looked at his back, and their hearts were confused and emotional.

Zhao Kai was most confused in his heart, and he couldn't figure out which one Chu Tianya was playing today, and what it meant. He really wanted to ask Xiao Ta if he didn't smoke, but he was afraid of being laughed at by her, so he had to hold back, and he didn't feel uncomfortable.

Only Xiao Ta Buyan knew in his heart that Chu Tianya's little trick today was actually "killing multiple birds with one stone". first, he sold Zhao Kai a cheap favor, which made him "majestic"; Second, let the two countries have a bystander witness to the peace alliance, and when the time comes, Juer Khan or she Xiao Ta Buyan will not be able to rely on the alliance if they want to; Third, Chu Tianya actually wanted to leave her Xiao Ta Buyan with the last trace of face, not only did he not mention the assassination, but he also did not "take the initiative" to embarrass Xiao Ta Buyan by making any undue requests. From beginning to end, Chu Tianya was more like a "bystander", and it looked more like Xiao Ta Buyan and Zhao Kai were talking and discussing.

Just this little trick or trick made Xiao Ta feel heartfelt - Chu Tianya, a young man, is really not simple. His maturity and steadiness seem to have surpassed the scope of his age, and he is a natural demon!

"Now I probably understand why people like Tong Guan and Yelu Yu were quietly defeated at his hands." Xiao Ta said to himself, "I understand better why he has the momentum he has today." ”

Zhao Kai looked straight on the side, "Why?" ”

Xiao Ta smiled slightly, "If Your Highness doesn't have any other teachings, then the concubine will leave." ”

Zhao Kai was stunned for a moment, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Queen...... Please take care of yourself! ”

Xiao Ta is not smoking, and he is gone. Zhao Kai stood in place in a daze, like a clay statue of a Bodhisattva.

Luoyang Palace, Bai Xu, Xue Yu, Yang Zaixing and others came to send Chu Tianya together.

Yang Zaixing recently joined and just received the Pioneer Seal, which made Bai Xu and others excited. In any case, the old people of Qixingzhai have finally reunited, and they are more prosperous than in the past.

Considering the relationship between Yang Zaixing and Cao Cheng, in order to avoid embarrassment for him, Chu Tianya temporarily left him in Luoyang and handed him over to Xue Yu, and first trained the soldiers and horses together in the Jiyuan camp for a period of time. Yang Xue and the others were quite happy, so they gladly accepted. Chu Tianya wrote a handwritten letter to Liu Ziyu, the commander of the Jiyuan battalion, and solemnly recommended Yang Zaixing to him, so that Yang Zaixing could be integrated into this new collective as much as possible.

In the palace, the old man He Bo was still left in charge, and Ada and twelve newly joined female guards stayed by Xiao Linglong's side to protect and serve.

Yu Gong and private finally made all the arrangements, and Chu Tianya took eleven Qingwei and Tiger Ben guards and set off for Wutong Plain.

Chu Tianya had only been gone for half a day, and in the evening, Xiao Ta Buyan appeared in the Luoyang Palace. The guards here all knew about her relationship with Xiao Linglong, and they also knew that she had assigned assassins to assassinate her, so they couldn't stop it, and they had to report to Xiao Linglong to make a decision in person.

Xiao Linglong was panicking about this, she had always wanted to see her sister, but she felt even more embarrassed to meet, and she didn't know where to start. Now that Xiao Ta is not smoking and has come to the door in person, Xiao Linglong also hesitated for a while, then sighed, "Let her in!" ”

As soon as these words fell, twelve female guards appeared neatly beside Xiao Linglong.

Xiao Linglong smiled bitterly, "You don't have to be so tense. In this situation, I can prevent what you can prevent; If I can't prevent it, neither can youβ€”all stand down! ”

The female guards didn't know what she meant, but since they had been ordered, they had to obey, so they all obediently retreated to the cubicle, still on guard.

Xiao Linglong came in without a cigarette, her teary eyes were excited, but she tried hard to be calm. She walked into the hall without saying a word, and knelt down in front of Xiao Linglong.

This loud sound hurt Xiao Linglong's ears.

"I'm sorry for you!"

As soon as the words came out, Xiao Ta couldn't cry immediately without smoking.

Xiao Linglong sat on the chair, looking at the sibling sister in front of her, who had grown up with her, and said nothing, but two lines of tears slipped quietly.

"I dare not beg your forgiveness...... I only hope you can let me stay by your side and serve you as a slave and a maid for the rest of my life! Xiao Ta fell to his knees and sobbed, "To atone for my sins!" ”

"You're guilty, but you're not wrong." Xiao Linglong shed tears and said in a low voice, "It's like I'm willing to do anything for the end of the world." ”

"Flying fox, me! ......" Xiao Ta cried loudly.

"Sister...... If there is one person in this world who understands your heart, it is your own sister, Flying Fox. Xiao Linglong said softly, "If one day I do these things for the end of the world, I will have no regrets; But you're ...... for him I want to say, you're not worth it! ”

Xiao Ta bit his lip and burst into tears, speechless.

"I know you're retorting." Xiao Linglong said, "I'll just say one example - when Taiyuan was besieged, Wanyan Zonghan coerced the Song Dynasty to cede Taiyuan and let Taiyuan surrender, and another condition was to give me to Zonghan. Do you know what Chu Tianya said? ”

Xiao Ta shook his head lightly.

Xiao Linglong's face was filled with a satisfied and intoxicated smile, "At that time, he was just a military patrol commander who started from a small official in the prison city, but he made such a generous statement to Wanyan Zonghan, I still remember his original words - bird family slave, listen, if you are still a man, you will dare to snatch the flying fox with a knife." Otherwise, she will always be my Chu Tianya woman! ”

After finishing his words, Xiao Ta's face turned white, and his eyes widened and he looked at Xiao Linglong in a daze.

Xiao Linglong was still smiling, "This is what a small military academy at the end of the road is in danger, and what he said to the famous Jin Guoxiong who has a million-strong division in his hands." ”

"I know what you're trying to say...... Yes, it was he who asked me to seduce Chu Tianya, and try to take his life or fight for the greatest benefit of the alliance, at least to seek a batch of soldiers, horses, money and food! Xiao Ta shuddered all over, closed his eyes in embarrassment, and tears poured down his face.

"So, my sister." Xiao Linglong took a deep breath, "I'm not worth it for you!" ”
