Chapter 311
The King of Jin was dressed in a navy blue robe, with a dark belt around his waist, and a piece of jade pendant hung on the left and right, and the sleeves of the robe were drawn with gold wire, which made him noble but not vulgar.
Rumo green silk fluttered slightly in the "whirring" sound of the folding fan in his hand, which looked even more chic and free.
The War King was dressed in an ink-colored robe, his face was slightly gloomy, and he wore a gem-inlaid sword at his waist, and he was cold-eyed and indifferent to everything around him.
The two were rugged side by side, like a beautiful landscape, which quickly attracted passers-by to wait and see.
Although the border city is small, it juggles and sings, and sells snacks. Outside is a war that is about to break out, but inside is a peaceful country and people's peace.
Shangguan is really courageous, he can calm the hearts of the people internally and block the enemy army externally, and he can do it, and the king of Jin admires it very much.
Mu Ningyuan was the first time to the border city, and it was the first time to enter the barracks, even if he was mentally prepared, he was still taken aback by the formation in front of him.
On the training ground, the soldiers fought and shouted and fought, and the momentum was magnificent. The tents in the barracks were lined up, looking chaotic, but in fact they were very regular, like a formation.
The third prince stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around Mu Ningyuan's shoulder, "Brother Mu, this trip is not in vain." β
"Fortunately, I was lucky to be able to witness the demeanor of General Shangguan with my own eyes." Mu Ningyuan's humble and gentlemanly appearance made the third prince really unappetizing.
"After getting along for so long, I thought that our friendship didn't need these hypocritical politeness, and after a long time, it was me who shaved my head and picked it hot, and you didn't appreciate it at all."
The third prince scratched his head a little childishly, Mu Ningyuan still wanted to say something, and he was already urging them over.
The Shangguan welcomed them into the big tent, and without waiting for the greetings to sit down, his men reported that Tobul had been kidnapped, but fortunately he found out in time, wounding several brothers, and the other party's people had been surrounded by them, waiting for the general's order.
King Jin talked and laughed, "Seventh brother, this big account will give me a horse, and Liao Shengjun in the north is just like this, and he is also a general." β
"What the fourth brother said is extremely true, since the northern country is coming, it is better to meet them before going to the battle." Turning her head to look at Mu Qing, she nodded slightly, smiled and said something to Qing'er, the hot appearance made the war king quite injured, and he was now sitting on the cold bench.
The third prince hurried out to join in the fun, Mu Ningyuan first entered the military camp, and also wanted to increase his knowledge, King Jin did not stop him, but just told Dark One and Dark Two to follow closely, after all, when Boyan returned to the capital, he specially asked him to take care of the two.
When Shangguan arrived, Tobul pressed a hairpin against the neck of the man in black, and the two confronted each other, and the wrist of the man in black stuck his neck that could not be dragged on, and the two were deadlocked.
Liao Shengjun is going to kill Tobul, if she wasn't alert enough, she would never have lived until now, "Tobul, what is the secret that Liao Shengjun wants to leave behind, it doesn't matter if you say it or not, Princess Muqing of the northern country has arrived, and the misunderstanding between the two countries will soon be clarified." β
The black-clothed man shook, and his eyes flickered as he looked at Shangguan, as if looking for a definite answer.
Tobul was out of breath and spoke intermittently, "General Shangguan, I have written the secret into a letter and put it in the tent where I live, and if I can't go back safely, let it be in the daylight." β
Now the man in black is even more anxious, he can't complete the task, the whole family is finished, but this dead woman actually left something, he just killed her and committed suicide here, but he still can't do what General Liao told him to do.
Stunned, Li Dashan saw the opportunity, and the dart came straight to the head of the man in black, and it was a blink of an eye, and he fell to the ground, and the man in black opened his eyes, and he had no breath.
Mu Ningyuan had never seen murder, and he almost didn't stand firm, but fortunately, the third prince quickly held him up, "It's normal for people to die on the battlefield, if Brother Mu is uncomfortable, I'll send you back first." β
He steadied his mind, and no longer had the courage to look at the death of the man in black, and he turned his body sideways and did not leave.
Tobul escaped death, but he was calm, Li Dashan was just about to let people search Tobul's camp, but was stopped by Shangguan: "She won't write out the life-saving things, and she tells you so grandly, just to confuse the enemy, if she relaxes, she will have a chance to escape." β
"You let people take a good look at her, although General Ben is not interested in her secret, with her, Liao Shengjun does not dare to act rashly, in addition, the fox, it is better to wear shackles to be more secure."
Thoble wanted to vomit blood, but Shangguan was a brilliant figure who could anticipate her plan at a glance. Wearing shackles, she can't escape even if she inserts her wings.
"General Shangguan, a husband and wife for a hundred days, even if you don't miss the old love, how can you bear to put on heavy shackles on a woman who has no power to restrain the chicken."
"People like you can say these words without a red face and without a beat, it can be seen how brazen it is, General Ben and you are just a nominal husband and wife, each with its own master. Also, if you are a weak woman, the whole world will be good. β
Li Dashan's nose was almost crooked, the general who Tobul had harmed had been lonely for half his life, and he was going to ruin the general's reputation at this time, he stepped forward and pushed a few times very unceremoniously, Tobul was racking his brains to think of countermeasures, Li Dashan's cold movements, she didn't have time to take precautions, and fell straight down.
Inside Shangguan's big tent, Qing'er and Mu Qing chatted softly, and the war king seemed to be as naughty as a child, "Fourth sister-in-law, you have all talked all the way, haven't you finished talking yet." β
Qing'er's lips couldn't help laughing: "Okay, good, your daughter-in-law will return to Zhao." As he spoke, he pushed Mu Qing towards him.
King Jin was asking about the situation of the third prince, Mu Ningyuan's face was a little pale, and the seven or eight corpses lying horizontally and vertically were still shaking in front of his eyes, making him unbearable, his stomach churned for a while, and he covered his mouth and walked out of the camp quickly.
His reaction was quite strange in the eyes of everyone, after all, they are all people who have been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, today these are small scenes, and the bloody wind and rain that are bigger than them have all been experienced, even Qing'er doesn't feel anything, Mu Ningyuan, a big man, this move is a bit hypocritical.
Shangguan came back again and beckoned everyone to sit down, "Lord Wang, tomorrow I have to trouble Princess Muqing to come to the front of the battle in person, so that the soldiers of the northern country can verify with their own eyes that their princess is good and dignified, and sending troops to our country is a dirty excuse for the northern country." β
Mu Qing suddenly remembered the scene on the way to reconcile with his relatives, the royal family of the northern kingdom did not hesitate to bury the killer in secret in order to be able to send troops smoothly, and wanted to kill himself, and his heart was sad, and it was not worth it for the original owner. Three-two
"General Shangguan, have you ever thought that if the Northern Kingdom says that I am a fake, how do you confirm it, and how should we deal with it?"
Mu Qing's scorching words made everyone present fall silent, this is an indisputable fact, Qing'er can even think of a more unbearable picture than this, Zhu Rancheng's death is equivalent to losing a strong evidence, and it is difficult for them to come up with evidence that can defend Mu Qing's identity.
Before the Northern Kingdom sent troops, it must have been rehearsed, even if Mu Qing could appear in front of the two armies unharmed, their countermeasures would have already been in place.
The king of war held Mu Qing's hand and blew softly, since he rescued Mu Qing this time, his performance has become more and more childish, but King Jin's heart is like a mirror, this is the real king of war, that layer of hard and cold hard shell is the protection of himself, after retreating, it is even more pleasing to the eye.
Mu Qingruyu's facial features exuded a holy halo in the sun, her good-looking eyebrows were raised, and her black and white eyes flashed a hint of purity: "If the northern kingdom denies my identity tomorrow, maybe I am a cloth cloth, and I am no longer the most expensive princess of the northern kingdom, what will you do?" β
"You're just my lady, and everyone else is fearless." The war king looked at her affectionately, as if the surrounding things did not exist, and the two embraced each other in the fiery red light.
In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Liao Shengjun left the camp, and the people sent out have not yet returned, so it can be seen that the whole army has been wiped out, and he is worried about the life and death of Tobul, if he is still alive, it will be even more difficult.
The subordinates reported that the Mo country sounded the horn, and a large number of soldiers stood in front of the camp, and the Shangguan took the lead and was calling for battle in front of the army.
Liao Shengjun's brain hurts, if you talk about Shangguan's military ability, it is the best, he is in command this time, what he values is to win more and less, and the disparity in strength between the two armies.
If he really came alone, he didn't think he was Shangguan's opponent, "But there is news from Tobul." β
"The spies once saw Tobul come out of General Shangguan's tent intact, but it is not clear which tent he returned to."
"Intact", that is, it is a failure, these warriors in the northern country are carefully selected, so that they don't worry about their defection, but Shangguan has strengthened his supervision, and if he wants to attack again, it will be even more difficult to estimate.
He hesitated again and again but chose to face the battle, the soldiers of the Mexican country were high-spirited, the battle flag was fluttering in the wind, and Shangguan and the other two stood side by side in front of each other.
Just by looking at the two of them, you can guess that their identities are by no means ordinary. Liao Shengjun raised his horsewhip, the horse was in pain, and he lied all the way to the front of the battle, Liao Shengjun grabbed the reins, "Why did General Shangguan speak in front of the battle?" β
The elegant voice sounded like a jade bead hitting a jade plate: "General Liao, I haven't seen you for many days, and I am still in good spirits." β
Only then did Liao Shengjun notice that on the three horses, a dignified-looking girl poked her head out from behind one of the men.
Because of the girl's slender body, he was negligent for a while, and he didn't even notice: "Who is this girl?" β
Mu Qing and Liao Shengjun had met at the royal banquet, and he wouldn't remember it, so as they had speculated before, Beiguo had already thought of a countermeasure, and even if she could come to the battle in person, Beiguo would deny it.
"General Liao is really forgetful, he doesn't even know this princess, you crusade against the Mexican country this time, and keep saying that the princess was killed by the Mexican country. Now that this princess is standing in front of the battle safe and sound, what do you have to say? β
"You deceive your superiors and subordinates, for your own selfish interests, you are going to trap the people of the northern country in the chaos of war, and when you see this princess, you still don't kneel, do you want to hide from your father and continue to send troops and harm the world?"
Liao Shengjun knew the inside story of this expedition, but several lieutenants around him didn't know about it, but they had seen Princess Mu Qing, even Zhu Ranqing couldn't hold his breath, he never saw the figure of the eldest brother, according to the temper of the eldest brother, he would definitely protect Mu Qing, and he would never let her be in danger alone.
Ran Qing automatically ignored the war king, and his thoughts about his brother made him almost rush to the front of the battle, but he was still pressed down by reason.
The girl's long brocade-like black hair was tied only with a dark purple headband, and her little face was slightly pale without powder, but it was a beautiful beauty that made people feel a sense of pity in their chests.
"Below is the war king of Mexico, the fiancΓ© of Princess Mu Qing, this is the Jin prince of Mexico, the soldiers of the northern country should not be deceived by some people who try to start a war, think about your family, if there is a war, taxes will increase, farming, and small business are miserable."
"The people of Mexico are displaced, can the people of the north be spared, it's just the difference in bearing, since Princess Mu Qing is standing in front of you alive, this doesn't mean that the north and Mexico shouldn't have this damn war at all."
The reputation of the king of war responds to the countries, that is the prince who has the god of war, kills decisively, never drags mud and water, although it is not excessive, but the generals are admired, and now I have seen a real person, a veritable god of war.
The lieutenant generals cast suspicious eyes on Liao Shengjun, Ran Qing went out this time, and his mother quietly reminded him that if he saw Ran Cheng and Mu Qing on the battlefield, he had to do his best to protect them, and the rest should not interfere.
He didn't understand the political situation very well, but he clearly witnessed how the northern kingdom wanted to go to Mu Qing and die, and the inhumane calculation and killing was only ended by the war king's action.
Liao Shengjun stabilized his mind, and his cold smile was mixed with ridicule: "Princess Muqing of the Northern Kingdom, noble and incomparable, how can she appear in front of the battle so shamelessly, and she is ashamed to prove her identity." β
"Since the northern kingdom insists on going to war, the Mexican country will not say more, and the king of tomorrow will personally go into battle to understand the demeanor of General Liao." After speaking, he drove the horse and left with Mu Qing.
The King of Jin was even more energetic, saying to himself that he wanted to go to the battlefield to fight side by side with Lao Qi, and the two major myths of the Mexican Kingdom appeared in the border city at the same time, which made Liao Shengjun a little overwhelmed.
Before he returned to the barracks, he reported that a fire suddenly broke out in the place where the military rations were stored, which was almost extinguished, but for some reason, the southeast wind blew again, and the sparks became even wilder, and they were almost burned at this time.
Liao Shengjun yelled, why did he say it at this time. The subordinates were also trembling and clumsy, saying that they did not dare to disturb the general before he went into battle.
He was so angry that he swept everything on the table to the ground, and he couldn't relieve himself of the whole tent roof.
After the fire, it was a mess, the black residue mixed with the water, it looked dirty and decadent, and there were no grains left, and if you want to continue to hold on, you must find a way to raise enough food and grass in the shortest possible time.
