Chapter 322: Raid
When they arrived at Black Sand City, the news of the princess's return was reported to the city by a fast horse, and soon, a Turkic guard came to greet her, and told the princess and Lu Jinping that the Turkic Khan had returned to the court a few days ago.
Lu Jinping felt a little drumming in his heart when he thought that he was about to meet his future father-in-law, one of the greatest khans in Turkic history, Mozhu Khan. However, when he thought of Yelujue's previous advice to him, his heart was heavy. Faced with a capricious and scheming hero, he really didn't know how to deal with it. To play strategy, he is definitely not the opponent of the other party, and the only way is to identify the target, cut through the chaos with a quick knife, and brake quickly.
He made up his mind and calmed down, allowing the Khitan escort who had escorted them to return because they had already reached their destination.
After sending off the Khitan escorts, Lu Jinping and his party followed the escorts who came to greet them into Black Sand City and went straight to the Turkic palace.
The Turkic royal palace was much more magnificent than that of the Khitans, and when they entered the palace, they were told to go to the khan first, because the khan was anxious to see his beloved daughter and son-in-law.
So they first came to the post station to stay, and after settling Xiaoxiao and them, Lu Jinping followed the princess to the palace to meet the Turkic Khan.
Entering the palace, a long series of columns looked imposing, the roof was very high, and it seemed very empty, and the hall was empty except for a few guards who were standing, and in the middle of one of the thrones sat a burly and tall man, with a beard like a steel needle. stared at a pair of copper bell-like eyes, staring at Lu Jinping.
Princess Siyun happily lifted her skirt, ran up the steps with small steps, came to the soft couch, and shouted: "Father! He threw himself into the arms of the burly and tall middle-aged man.
Mo Zhu hugged her shoulder affectionately and patted her, saying, "My daughter." You suffered. I haven't been bullied by them in Datang for so many years, right? ”
The princess shook her head and said, "No, they are very good to me, there is no disrespect, it's just that I think of my father." Speaking of sadness, the voice was a little choked.
Mozhu gently patted her shoulder again. Then he turned his head and looked at Lu Jinping, who was standing with his hands tied below, his expression cooled, and he said sharply: "You have imprisoned my daughter for so many years, and you still have the face to ask for marriage?" ”
Lu Jinping couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he heard this, and he was about to step forward and bow down, but at this moment, he put his hands behind his back, looked up at him and said, "Ling Yan led the army to fight against my Tang Dynasty, and the two armies were captured in battle." What's so strange about this, are there still few of our Tang Dynasty soldiers you have arrested? Looting tens of thousands of my border people, how can this be counted? ”
Mo Zhu didn't expect that Lu Jinping would collide with him face to face, his face couldn't help but be even more gloomy, he snorted coldly, slapped the arm of the chair and said, "No one has ever dared to talk like this in front of me, you are really bold enough." Aren't you afraid of death? ”
"If you are afraid of death, you don't dare to come to your Turks alone to ask for relatives. You should know my identity, I am the Prince of the Tang Dynasty. Lord Zhong, I came to ask for your daughter on the order of the Tang Emperor. Before that. Your mother has promised to marry. I believe that this marriage should have been done with your nod, but now that you are so disrespectful to me and threatening to speak, I would like to ask, why did the Khan do so? ”
Hearing the two arguing, the princess panicked. Hurriedly hugged his father and said, "Father, he is very good to his daughter......"
"You don't have to speak for him, you are the daughter of my khan, and my daughter will not marry a prince!"
Mo Zhu stared at Lu Jinping, and the corners of his mouth showed a smug smile. "Don't you know that my daughter is the princess of my Turkic Khan? She wants to marry, at least marry your crown prince, and be the future queen, then she is worthy of her identity, you are a prince, why should you marry my daughter, your Tang Emperor is clearly an insult to the Turks. I'm not going to put up with that. Come, take him down! ”
The guards on both sides immediately rushed up.
The princess was like a breeze, and instantly floated down the high platform, blocking in front of Lu Jinping, and scolded the guards: "Whoever dares to come up, I will kill whoever comes!" ”
These guards knew that this princess had always been a good person and had excellent martial arts, so they all immediately stood up and looked at the Khan on the stage together.
Lu Jinping sneered, took two steps forward, and still looked up at Mo Zhu with his hands behind his back: "If you don't agree to this marriage, why do you want your mother to write to Datang to express her acceptance of this marriage?" You are clearly double-faced, this kind of behavior is really despicable. If it weren't for my attitude towards you because I already have feelings for your daughter, I wouldn't have married your daughter if you begged me. Since you are unwilling to agree to this marriage, then I will take my leave. ”
"Do you want to leave when you're here? You insulted my Turks, and you left so easily, where do I put my face? ”
Lu Jinping raised his eyebrows and said, "So, do you want to take me hostage or kill me?" ”
"Originally, I just wanted to put you in prison and ask your emperor for the crime before dealing with it, but now that you are so arrogant, I will cut off your hands and feet, cut off your tongue, and then let you go back, so that your emperor can understand what will happen if you dare to insult my Turkic Khan!"
"Stop!" The princess shouted loudly, separated her hands to block Lu Jinping, then turned to look at her father and said, "Father, you can't kill him, you can't let the child in my belly be without a father!" ”
At this sentence, everyone present was stunned, and Mo Zhu motioned to the guards not to do it first, stared at the princess and said, "What did you just say?" The child in your womb, -- you have his child? ”
"Yes, I am in love with him, and then we are together on the prairie, and then I am pregnant with his child, and it has been a few months, and you will be a grandfather, father. Do you want your grandson to be a fatherless child? ”
Mo Zhu's face gradually became cold, as if a snowstorm was coming. Suddenly, he roared wildly, and the sound shook the ears of the entire Datang people, and the big fist of the mallet smashed on the handrail, and with a click, the handrail was smashed.
The black bamboo mallet-like fist pointed at Lu Jinping, his eyes seemed to spew fire, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You damn bastard, you dare to rape my daughter!" I will not only cut off your hands and feet, but I will also cut off your head, I will cut off your flesh with a knife and feed it to the dogs, crush your bones and scatter them on the grassland to feed the eagles......"
He was gritting his teeth and saying, when suddenly, Lu Jinping, who was originally blocked by the princess, lost his trace. Immediately, Mo Zhu felt a firm and powerful hand, strangled his neck from behind, and Lu Jinping's cold voice came from behind him: "Since you are unkind, blame me, don't blame me for being unjust." I'm afraid you'll have to send me back to Datang, unless you don't want this head. ”
Mo Zhu couldn't have imagined that Lu Jinping's martial arts were so high. Especially the light skills, he actually reached the speed of a ghost, his guards are all first-class masters, although there is a certain distance, but I didn't expect him to move as fast as lightning. Mo Zhu is brave and good at fighting, and his martial arts are superb, but he was still restrained by his moves, and he didn't even have room to resist, and he couldn't help but feel a chill, it seems that he still underestimated this scholar who looked polite and weak. Didn't even take adequate precautions before turning the other cheek.
Lu Jinping said that he would do it, this was something he had already thought about before, so as soon as he came in, he immediately made observations, and got as close to Mozhu as possible, and subdued Mozhu from the angle he had thought of as quickly as possible.
Princess Siyun didn't expect things to develop to such a point, so she rushed forward two steps and said urgently: "Lord Wang, you can't be rude to my father, let go of my father!" ”
"He just said he wanted me to die. Hang my head above the tower. If I let him go, you will lose me, will you let me die? ”
"No, Father is just scaring you, he is joking, not true. Right, Father? ”
Mo Zhu's eyes rolled a few times, and he laughed dryly twice and said: "Yes, yes, I'll just look at your guts, after you asked for kiss before, I got the news, and I immediately agreed, because I heard that you are a young hero, very good, worthy of my daughter, just a little disbelief, so test it." Good son-in-law, let's sit down and discuss the marriage. ”
Lu Jinping sneered and said, "I'm sorry, I've heard about your rebellion, and I experienced it myself just now, do you think I will still believe you?" Since you have refused, I don't want this marriage, so you have to come with me and send us back to Datang safely, don't worry, when you get to the border of Datang, I will let you come back. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Jinping looked up at the princess who was looking at them sadly, and said, "Siyun, are you really pregnant with my child?" ”
The princess nodded sadly and said, "I didn't want to talk about it, I wanted to tell my father after I became married, but I couldn't help it, I could only say it." ”
Lu Jinping couldn't help but be overjoyed, nodded and said, "Great, let's go together, you go back to Datang with me, we are in charge of our marriage, and we don't need him to nod." Would you like to? ”
The princess looked at him sadly, then at her father, and said, "Father, I am pregnant with a child in Jinping, and I cannot let the child be without a father. You'd better agree to our marriage. He is very good, he is a hundred times better than any prince of the Tang Dynasty, I will not marry anyone except him, you will agree, our marriage! ”
Mo Zhu smiled and said, "I already agreed, I said it was just a joke just now, I want to try him, how do you know that he is in a hurry, okay, okay, since he doesn't believe me, I will accompany him, and at the same time arrange your marriage, okay?" It's okay, when do you think you're safe, how about you let me go again? My good son-in-law. ”
The princess wiped a handful of tears and said happily to Lu Jinping: "You let go of your father, he was joking just now, he won't really kill you, let it go." (To be continued.) )
