Chapter 120: Return
In the courtyard in the afternoon, the westerly sun shone through the gaps in the leaves on her slightly pale face, adding a little more anger
There was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, and the smoke and dust on the ground bounced, dispersed, and fell, and after a while, a voice came from outside the courtyard: "Weichen Zhou Cheng ~ I have seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess"
Li Zhilian turned her head, the cold arrows reflecting in the sun pierced her eyes and hurt, listening to the buzzing of the bow and arrow, the battle of hundreds of people, Zhou Cheng really looked up to her
Lu Jing, Shu Yihuan, and Cui Jie and Fu Yuheng's mother Xia Nuan in the house all walked to the door and looked at them, Shu Yihuan's sword was already out of its sheath, and was waiting for her order, but was stopped by Lu Jing.
Li Zhilian nodded towards Zhou Cheng and said, "I didn't expect that it was you who came."
She has been back from Ningcheng for two days, and the first person to come to her is Ghost Hand Weilin, and now the whole city of Ningcheng is under martial law, and his people did not send out to inquire about the news, but I heard that the princess of the Western Zhou Dynasty has entered the palace, and it was Li Jianqing who personally received her
Zhou Cheng saw that Li Zhilian's face was pale, he was right to stop Li Jianqing and not let him come, walked into the courtyard and glanced around, nodded to Lu Jing, and said: "Su Peng, the eldest prince of the Western Zhou Dynasty, is not dead, and the current situation in the Western Zhou Dynasty has been controlled, everything Su Yun mentioned is gone, even Su Rou, who has already arrived in Lining City, Su Peng also said that there is no such royal sister......"
Su Yun and Xiao Fenghe's wedding is fake, Su Peng's killing is fake, raising troops to attack southern Xinjiang is also fake, and it is still fake to return the whole country to southern Xinjiang, the purpose is to kill all the Xiao family members who are in turmoil in the Western Zhou Dynasty, but he didn't expect that now the emperor of Southern Xinjiang is Li Jianqing, and he will take advantage of the chaos to attack the Western Zhou Dynasty. Or there is Li Jianqing behind this conspiracy
Looking up at Zhou Cheng, the two heavenly pride of Southern Xinjiang joined forces, it was indeed not bad, retracted his gaze, pointed to the stone bench under the tree, motioned for Zhou Cheng to sit down, and asked indifferently: "What does this have to do with me?" ”
Zhou Cheng was stunned for a moment, and sneered: "Western Zhou gave us such a good excuse, what reason do we have in southern Xinjiang not to send troops?" Is it still like three years ago, just forget about being tricked? ”
Li Zhilian raised her eyes and glanced at Zhou Cheng, this was not the same as the Zhou Cheng she knew before, in less than ten days, how did he become like this? Is the same with Li Jianqing? He said in a deep voice: "I don't know how to lead soldiers."
Zhou Cheng paused slightly, turned his head to look at the few people who were looking inside the room, and said, "Shen Zhitang handed over the military power to you, if you don't give the order, Fu Yuheng will not go to war."
Zhou Cheng didn't come here to look for her, but to test Fu Yuheng and her
Li Zhilian smiled slightly and asked, "Lord Zhou, is this threatening me?" ”
Zhou Cheng looked at her, and his eyes became extremely cold: "Yes~"
A chill suddenly rose on Li Zhilian's back, now that they were surrounded by archers, even if she, Lu Jing, and Shu Yihuan could break through, what about Cui Jie and Xia Nuan, the two weak women? If Xia Nuan falls into the hands of Zhou Cheng, Fu Yuheng will also send troops, so it is better to push Fu Yuheng to them to ensure that he will be prosperous for the rest of his life
stood up, turned his back to Zhou Cheng and said: "Shen Zhitang and Fu Yuheng are not loyal to our Li family, but to Southern Xinjiang, if it is beneficial to Southern Xinjiang to go to war now, he will send troops, but you are not afraid that the Western Zhou, Beifeng, and the host three countries will unite, and when the time comes, with the 100,000 troops in Fu Yuheng's hands, I am afraid that there will be no return."
Zhou Cheng looked at her, his eyes were full of incredulity: "Don't worry about Beifeng, someone will help us deal with it"
Li Zhilian frowned slightly and asked, "Are you from the Xiao family?" Aren't the two coups against them in the Western Zhou Dynasty enough to hurt their vitality? ”
Zhou Cheng raised his eyes to look at her, and suddenly smiled: "Your Highness doesn't need to talk to me, what I found out is that the host country ceased to exist a hundred years ago, and their surname is now Xiao."
Li Zhilian suddenly thought that Yang Qihao's silk book recorded that in the army that rebelled against the Xiao family, there was no name of the host country, and the Xiao family's royal family finally fled to the host country, whether they reached an agreement with the host country, or the host country had already been occupied by the Xiao family
Zhou Cheng stood up and said softly: "Now is the time of turmoil, since His Royal Highness has returned to Lining City, let's go back to the princess's mansion to live!" Not safe outside"
She really should go back! Zhou Cheng didn't give her time to say goodbye, so he invited her out of the courtyard.
If Fu Yuheng doesn't return to Ningcheng for a day, Xia Nuan and the people in this courtyard will be able to be stable for a day, Shu Yihuan follows Lu Jingzai, and she is also relieved.
The Princess's Mansion is not far from Yongning Palace, and half of the palace walls collapsed when the explosion occurred, and now it has been almost repaired
As soon as she stepped through the door, Wan Tong jumped out and hugged her waist
Li Zhilian looked at Zhou Cheng inexplicably, and Zhou Cheng replied: "The Tai Hospital has been destroyed, so Tai Doctor Wei made his own decisions and moved the Tai Hospital to your mansion."
Li Zhilian wanted to ask Li Jianqing if he didn't stop him? Thinking of Li Jianqing since he chose to ignore her, he swallowed back the words when they came to his mouth
Zhou Cheng saluted and left, Li Zhilian leaned over and broke Wan Tong's hand away, squatted down to look at her, the last rays of the setting sun shone on her gradually lighter pupils, Wan Tong's left eye pupil, there was a black spot exactly the same as Li Kun, how many things were still hidden in Ning Cheng
The body instinctively hugged Wantong into his arms, this is Li Zhilian's only remaining blood relative.
Wan Tong was hugged in pain, and struggled: "Your Royal Highness's sister ~ hurt~"
Li Zhilian let Wan Tong go, and when he looked at his eyes, he saw that it was pitch black, but fortunately, Wan Tong was still young, and the color of his pupils had changed
Wan Tong took her hand and looked left and right for a while before leaning on her shoulder and whispering, "The day before yesterday...... A white-haired old man came and took Grandpa Wei away, right in the back of the little house......"
Li Zhilian's heart trembled, could it be Li Kun? Is Shen Zhitang also there, and he shook Wan Tong's shoulder anxiously: "Take my sister to take a look"
The princess's mansion is full of greenery, the stream is murmuring, a peaceful and quiet, in stark contrast to the ironclad soldiers outside, walking through more than half of the princess's mansion, I heard the sound of talking on the side of Ma Peng, Li Zhilian hid Wantong in the corner of the wall, and walked to the side of Ma Peng by himself
"Lord Wang is too injured to last a few days"
"Imperial Doctor Wei, is there really no other way? Hongen is the only one left in our Wang family."
"The Wang family?" Li Zhilian pushed open the door and went in, only to see Wang Yi and Wang Lin standing in front of the bed one after the other, anxiously looking at Wei Chong who was sitting at the head of the bed, and Wang Hongen lying on the grass bed was full of blood
When Wei Zhong saw her, he was stunned, Wang Lin reacted first and knelt down to her, Wei Chong reacted and knelt down: "Weichen has seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess~"
Wang Yi stood aside and did not move, Li Zhilian quickly helped the two old men up and said, "Let's move Lord Wang to the wing room for treatment first, people's lives are at stake."
On the way, Wang Yi looked at her and said helplessly: "You shouldn't come back"
Li Zhilian's footsteps paused, and said with a smile: "What I have never been for this world has never been"
