Chapter Seventy-Three: A Fierce Battle
The eldest princess's eyes were closed, and she seemed to be in a coma, and the black-clothed assassin frowned tightly, looking very nervous, and sure enough, after a while, Leng Changxi chased after him from the entrance of the palace, and after a quarter of a cup of tea, the mandarin duck and the cold frost arrived one after another, and his expression remained vigilant.
Jing Donghua stood up suddenly, the black-clothed assassin and Shi Rongrong were obviously in a group: "What is this for?" ”
At this point, Shi Rongrong didn't plan to do too much scene effort, and directly ordered someone to help the eldest princess up, and said to Jing Donghua: "Thank you for finding the eldest princess who has been missing for many years for our Daqi, recognizing the ancestors and returning to the roots, and it is reasonable for us to bring back our own princess." ”
"Qinghe is my wife, how can you take it away." Jing Donghua greeted, and on the top of the main hall, the black-armored soldiers guarding behind a few golden columns came out in response, and the scimitar and long sword in their hands were already out of their sheaths, ready to fight for Western Xia at any time.
Jing Donghua's sentence seems unreasonable, but it is actually true, because he and Qinghe did break their hair and tie each other in Crescent Mountain at that time, worshiped heaven and earth, and performed the courtesy of Zhou Gong.
But after all, only two people know, and Princess Qinghe was to make peace with the first emperor of Western Xia, Jing Donghua's actions, one is unrighteousness, the second is unfilial piety, and the third is unkindness, but Jing Donghua doesn't care about these now.
Shi Rongrong smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, you seem to have misremembered, the queen of your country is the daughter of the Tuoba family, not the princess of our Daqi, and our Daqi princess is going to marry, but your biological father, but later had an accident and failed to marry, Princess Qinghe is still the daughter of our Daqi after all, not your daughter-in-law of Western Xia, naturally, it should be handed over to us to take back." ”
If Shi Rongrong and the others brought back the eldest princess, it would be tantamount to giving Sima Rui an extra good hostage, how could Leng Changxi let him succeed, but looking at Shi Rongrong's confident appearance, and daring to enter the palace with twenty people, it seems that he came prepared.
"Jokes." Leng Changxi paced forward, and as he spoke, he untied the mask on his face in an atmospheric manner, the silver mask had never left Leng Changxi's face since he entered Western Xia, no one knew his true face, even in Daqi, the only people who knew his appearance were Qin Yunuan and a few personal servants who served him.
At this time, the mask fell to the ground, and a face that had not seen the sun for a long time and looked a little pale was exposed to the hot gaze of everyone, although Leng Changxi's face was not peerless, but the high nose bridge and sharp and deep eyes seemed to be the most proud work that had been carefully polished by the creator countless times before daring to take out his hand, and the seemingly thin corners of his lips were filled with a soft and ruthless smile, and it was the first time I saw someone who could integrate this gentle but chilling temperament so seamlessly;
Those present were not only the palace maids who accompanied them, but even those eunuchs and old courtiers of Western Xia, and even the members of the Great Qi delegation were stunned, at this time, Qin Yunuan rushed over from outside the hall, and saw Leng Changxi who was surrounded by the crowd in the center at a glance, Leng Changxi's handsome and delicate face was exposed like this, Qin Yunuan hurriedly went up and held Leng Changxi's hand.
"Changxi."
Leng Changxi gently pinched Qin Yunuan's little fingertips, meaning to let Qin Yunuan not worry, and then stepped forward and took out the black Xuantie token in his arms: "The token of the first general of Great Qi is here, which of you dares to take the eldest princess back to Great Qi?" ”
"The First Great General of Great Qi?" Shi Rongrong seemed to have known Leng Changxi's identity for a long time, and raised his head slightly, "Now Your Excellency is a key criminal wanted by the Third Prince, and Leng Gongzi actually dares to take out his identity token so blatantly, which is really bold." ”
"Heh, this is not Daqi, it's Western Xia, and besides, I didn't collaborate with the enemy and commit treason, nor did I violate military orders, why did he Sima Rui want me?"
"Have you forgotten that you burned the whole mountain of grain and grass? The military order of the Great Qi clearly stipulates that those who burn grain and grass should be put to death. ”
When marching and fighting, grain and grass go first, before the ancestors of Daqi formulated this military law was nothing more than to ensure the safety of grain and grass, but now, this order has become a joke.
"I burn grain and grass? I burned the grain and grass that he Sima Rui was going to rebel against, what's wrong, has Daqi really been bewitched by Sima Rui into this way? Leng Changxi stared at Shi Rongrong.
Shi Rongrong was very proud to bow his hand in the direction of Daqi, and said in an extremely proud tone: "The three princes govern the country in a way, and now they are acting as the supervisors of the country, and they will govern Daqi well, which is the blessing of Daqi, and this official is the envoy of Daqi, according to the law of Daqi, the envoy to other countries, the envoy is the greatest, General Leng, I still call you General Leng, this official advises you, don't meddle in your affairs, and it's best, you also follow us back." ”
Qin Yunuan suddenly spoke, she smiled and said to Shi Rongrong: "Since Lord Shi wants to talk about the law, then the people will also talk to Lord Shi about the law of our Daqi, first, the law of Daqi has provisions, the appointment, dismissal, dismissal and conviction of ministers and generals can only be subject to the edict written by the emperor himself, and now the emperor of Daqi is terminally ill and unconscious, and it is not advisable to convict Changxi just by the words of the third prince Sima Rui, so now Changxi is still the first general of Daqi." ”
"Second, it is true that when envoys to other countries, it is true that the envoys are the greatest, but the laws of Daqi also stipulate that if there is a major matter, it should be decided by the officials above the fifth grade who are present, and finally the winner or loser will be determined by more votes and fewer votes, and now Lord Shi forcibly wants to bring back the eldest princess, should he also discuss it with the Daqi officials present?"
Shi Rongrong subconsciously looked at the twenty people behind him, and wanted to discuss, he was not too many.
"Lord Shi doesn't have to look at those inferior officials behind him," Qin Yunuan had already expected Shi Rongrong's thoughts, "I have already swept it at a glance, most of them are seventh-rank clerks and seventh-rank martial artists, and none of them have the right to vote." ”
"And what do you want?" Shi Rongrong said impatiently, "Now there are only two people, this official and General Leng, this will not lead to any result at all." ”
"Who said that?" Suddenly, a loyal male voice came from behind a round golden pillar, and the tall Leng Wu walked in three steps and two steps, "I still have one vote;
。 ”
"That's right," Qin Yunuan smiled at Shi Rongrong, "Lord Shi, have you forgotten that this Lord Leng is a four-rank sword guard given by the emperor to General Leng as a personal guard." ”
Leng Wu was naturally on the side of Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan, and in this way, the result was self-evident.
At this time, Jing Donghua, who had been watching for a long time, also spoke: "I don't know and don't want to know, I don't want to care about what the laws of your Daqi are, I just say a word, if you want to take Qinghe, it's impossible, and if you want to use our Western Xia army to be cannon fodder for your Daqi to attack Beidi, it's even more impossible." ”
Shi Rongrong's eyes suddenly flashed sharply, and the hand behind him made a gesture towards his personal entourage, and the entourage immediately performed light skills and ran towards the outside of the hall.
"Stop him, he's going to ventilate." Just when Leng Changxi gave the order, the dexterous figure of this entourage had already quickly passed through the people in this large hall.
With a thud, a red flare flew into the air from the attendant's hand, and a large red flower bloomed.
Immediately afterward, the entourage was pressed under the two black-armored soldiers, and the flare in his hand was empty.
"Do you still have an internal response in the palace?" Jing Donghua paced down the golden lacquer steps, and looked at Shi Rongrong with a majestic expression, "You Daqi people are really very capable, and your three princes who don't know the height of the sky are really so ambitious, they actually dare to install people in the palace of my Western Xia." ”
Since things have come to such a point, Shi Rongrong no longer needs to hide it, he even has a trace of disdain and snickering: "Your Majesty, we can't blame this internal response, you must know that this internal response was welcomed back to the palace by yourself by your Xixia welcoming team." ”
"It's Dou Meishuang!" Qin Yunuan reacted immediately, she hadn't heard any news from Dou Meishuang since she returned to Beijing, Bai Shishi only said that when there was a rebellion in the Yellow Banner military camp, Jing Yuanchu's mansion was very quiet, there was no movement at all, and no movement at all was the biggest movement.
No wonder there will be assassins from Daqi in the Yellow Flag Barracks who will find Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan so quickly, no wonder Jing Yuanchu can have no worries in the Yellow Flag Barracks, don't worry about the fire in the back house, Jing Yuanxiao arranged Bai Shishi in Beijing to stabilize the situation, but Jing Yuanchu also placed Dou Meishuang in Beijing.
No, now it seems that it was not installed by Jing Yuanchu, the person who has been controlling everything from beginning to end is none other than Sima Rui, this opponent who is thousands of miles away but has always been ambitious to take Leng Changxi's life.
After a while, there was a noise outside, and the black-clothed assassins who came from all over instantly surrounded the entire hall, and the envoys of those missions also moved at the same time, directly pouring the tea that Jing Donghua wanted to drink for them into the throats of those Western Xia ministers, and they all looked extraordinary, it seems that the fundamental purpose of this mission is not to send envoys, but to coerce them by force at critical times.
Jing Donghua was not surprised, Leng Changxi took out the dagger in his hand, and Leng Shuang handed the sister sword of his Ziwei Soft Sword to Qin Yunuan.
"This is the palace of Western Xia, you Daqi people, dare to make a mistake?"
"If you don't dare to make a mistake, you can't do it." Shi Rongrong was vicious, this ruthless appearance was very similar to the appearance of Sima Rui deliberately burning Shang Xianhua to death in front of Leng Changxi at that time, Leng Changxi pinched the handle of the dagger that was a little sweaty in his hand, this time, he would not let history repeat itself.
