11-47 The eve of the rebellion
On the day of Princess Xiangxiang's big day, Meng Dan was more excited than everyone else, with a group of people running around, distributing the best wine and meat to the various camps of the Red Shirt Army, and even each outpost sent a pot of wine, the hospitable herdsmen pulled the Red Shirt soldiers to get drunk, and the bold Red Shirt soldiers were also coming, and they did not refuse to drink in large quantities, seeing this scene, Meng Dan showed a smile on his face.
In the gloomy corner outside the barracks, several agile and resolute-eyed men gathered together and reported to one person in a low voice: "All the Han people have been given wine and meat, even the guards with silver plaques, the brutes will be drinking freely, and they will all lie down by midnight." ”
"Our people are ready, ready to attack the camp of the Han people at any time, and take care of it, and not a single mouse will leak out."
"Very good, everyone split up, rioted on time at midnight to rescue Princess Xiangxiang, and the task of eradicating the Han leader will be left to me personally, Allah bless the disbandment of the Hui Ministry!" Under the leader's order, the men dissipated silently like the wind on the desert, and the leader slowly walked out, and under the light of the butter torches on the wall of the barracks, you could see his resolute expression, and this person was Meng Dan.
"What you're talking about is that you come over and have a drink with you." There was a drunken shout from afar, and Meng Dan was furious, and his right hand was on the scimitar, but looking at the drunk, it was clearly a small officer of the Red Shirt Army, and Meng Dan hurriedly let go of the handle of the knife and replaced it with an enthusiastic smile: "Brother Han, I'm here to accompany you to have fun." ”
Finally hit the drunken ghost, Meng Dan spat on the ground fiercely: "Damn the Han people, with their weapons, they really want to occupy the great rivers and mountains of our Hui Ministry, you are really blind, your dog eyes will let you run rampant again tonight, and when we wait until tomorrow, it will be our Hui people who are in charge of their own affairs." ”
Tonight, Ningxia City is undefended, the four city gates are open, the streets are full of revelers, Meng Dan walked through the noisy street to the brightly lit Khan's palace, Meng Dan is the godson of old Hoxha, and the brother of Princess Xiangxiang, the elder of the Hui Department, and the soldiers guarding the door will naturally not stop him from entering, after Meng Dan looked at Liu Ziguang who was staggering in the courtyard, and after the personal guards were sure that they would not pose a danger, they went into a side room and began to prepare items that would be difficult to use.
If you want to solve the Han people, you must first solve Princess Xiangxiang, Meng Dan is very sad to realize that Princess Xiangxiang has now changed her mind, and the whole person has completely fallen to the Han side, and wants to sell the entire Hui to the Han people, so today's secret operation, he is completely hiding from Huo Lingyao, of course, Princess Xiangxiang must not be killed, because she is the daughter of the old Hoxha after all, the current Xiang Khan of the Hui Department can only move with affection and reason, and slowly persuade and educate Meng Dan that with his true feelings, he will eventually save Huo Lingyao's heart.
At this time, Princess Xiangxiang didn't know that a huge conspiracy was coming, she was sitting in her palace waiting for her newlywed husband to arrive, after careful consideration, Huo Lingyao finally decided that her decision was correct, the Hui Department was in the gap between the Han and the Mongols, the strength was weak but rich and abundant, so it was necessary to choose one between the two as a backer, otherwise it would not be able to sustain it with its own strength alone, and the Western Xia side would not have to think about it, and it was already a mortal enemy, so the Hui Department must and could only fully fall to the Ming Dynasty.
And marrying Liu Ziguang is the best choice, this person is young and promising, and the power leans towards the government and the opposition, if nothing else, he can keep the peace of the Hui Department for at least fifty years by relying on his prestige alone, to put it bluntly, this is a political marriage, but Huo Lingyao does not have too many grievances and dissatisfaction, Liu Ziguang did not say anything about the Hui Ministry, asking for money, giving money, weapons to weapons, and the handsome Wu Wentao Wu Luo did not say.
Before meeting Liu Ziguang, Meng Dan did still have a certain status in Huo Lingyao's heart, the righteous brother and young man of the childhood sweetheart, he was also mentally able to ride a fierce horse and shoot eagles, and in the whole Hui Department, he seemed to be a first-class good man, but now that he looks at it again, it is not like that, compared with Liu Ziguang, the general of the expedition to the west who knows astronomy and geography, Meng Dan is a country boy.
The woman's change of heart is actually very fast, although Huo Lingyao herself is still unwilling to admit it, in fact, in her heart, she has secretly liked Liu Ziguang, so during the time she was waiting for the groom, her heart was full of sweet and apprehensive feelings.
There is a circular bath made of jade in the palace, and when the groom comes, he will bathe together according to the tradition of the Hui Department, and then enter the cave room, thinking of these fragrant things, Huo Lingyao's face suddenly rose two red clouds, she couldn't help but stretch out her head to look into the bath, wanting to see if her reflection was still so beautiful, but when she looked out, she saw a masked person standing behind her.
Huo Lingyao was startled, and just wanted to shout, he was covered by the masked man, who obviously had drugs in his hand, Huo Lingyao immediately fainted, and the masked man resisted it on his shoulder, and quietly disappeared out of the window.
Liu Ziguang, the other protagonist of the wedding, was still drinking outside at this time, and those men who returned to the department drank wine, which was like drinking water, looking at this posture, it was clear that they wanted to get Liu Ziguang drunk, but they obviously miscalculated, there were already more than a dozen people lying on the ground, and Liu Ziguang was still as steady as Mount Tai, and those who came did not refuse.

After drinking the last guest, Liu Ziguang sneered, got up and left the table, but when he stood up, he stumbled, and Dai Wenlong, the head of the guard, hurriedly came to help him, and was pushed away by him: "It's okay, this little wine is not a problem." ”
Having said that, Liu Ziguang still feels a little up, this is a situation that will never happen before, but now not only will he get drunk when he drinks, but his skills have also regressed a little bit compared to before, and the last time he singled out Gu Lunmu, it actually took two rounds to hack him to death, all of which shows that his body function is declining, and if this trend continues, I am afraid that when he is old, he will be no different from ordinary people.
Liu Ziguang first went to the thatched house and sprinkled a soak of urine, and then returned to the wine table, and the drunken guests had been dragged down to sleep and replaced by a dozen middle-level officers of the Red Shirts.
"Are you ready?" Liu Ziguang asked.
"Hui Dashuai has been arranged, and as soon as they make a move, we will counteract and protect you, as soon as you wake up, Ningxia City will change a new world." The subordinate replied.
"Very good, when the time comes, we must be decisive in attacking, and we must crack down ultra-nationalists, but at the same time, we must also pay attention to the national policy, so as not to hurt the innocent, and we will all disperse, and we will start fighting in a while."
Liu Ziguang waved everyone to step down, and he went to Princess Xiangxiang's bedroom, and it was now close to midnight, so it was not good to let the bride wait too long.
These days, Mengdan's small actions are all under Liu Ziguang's control, and the Hui people are playing intrigue and tricks, you must know that they are facing the biggest spy leader of the Ming Dynasty, and the spy system of Nanchang has also quietly infiltrated Ningxia City, and has shown a lot of eyeliner in the local area, and even Mengdan's small organization also has people from Nanchang, and Mengdan's every move will not take half a day to pass on to Liu Ziguang.
As soon as the railway from Guanzhong to Ningxia is completed, countless Han merchants will come one after another, bringing a large number of commodities and advanced Han culture, and the Hui will be assimilated in a few years. If this policy had been implemented before the invasion of the Western Xia, I am afraid that there would be no chance of victory, but during the short one-year reign of the Western Xia people, all the elders, imams, and even the backbone of the people in the Hui Department were killed, which happened to help Liu Ziguang invisibly, and the Hui Department was actually very simple, and the only and irreconcilable obstacle was Meng Dan.
Liu Ziguang knew that Meng Dan was Huo Lingyao's childhood sweetheart's brother-in-law, and from the usual analysis of his actions, he must have loved Huo Lingyao very much, if it was in other aspects, Liu Ziguang could also consider accommodating, but Huo Lingyao was an important part of his plan, and he couldn't let it out no matter what, which exacerbated the contradiction between the two, Meng Dan's rebellion plan, Liu Ziguang knew it from the beginning, but not only did he not nip it in the bud, but let them go, just to get rid of Meng Dan and his group of hot-blooded followers.
Tonight, there was a river of blood flowing outside the candles in the cave room, and it was exciting to think about it, Liu Ziguang walked towards Huo Lingyao's dormitory, and instructed the guards as he walked, and no sound was allowed to come in.
Huo Lingyao's figure is provocative, convex and backward, brown and blue-skinned, like milk, there is a strange fragrance on her body, and most importantly, the attitude of ignoring herself, all of which strongly stimulates Liu Ziguang's conquest**, he can't help but think of the last time in the tent, Huo Lingyao pouted with his back to himself and washed his face, that beautiful arc is really exciting, hehe, tonight you can get what you want, supporting Princess Xiangxiang's beautiful buttocks, it's very cool.
Before coming to the dormitory, Liu Ziguang knocked on the door first, but there was no response, presumably the maids had been taken away by Huo Lingyao, the little girl was quite shy, Liu Ziguang laughed lewdly, took off his boots, pushed the door, and walked into the palace.
Walking through the long carpeted corridor to the core of the dormitory, the water of the circular bath is hot smoke, and you can see the slender Huo Lingyao sitting on the edge of the pool, two white little feet are splashing in the pool, wearing only a layer of tulle, Liu Ziguang hardened on the spot, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and walked over, like a big bad wolf walking towards the little white rabbit.
