Chapter 608: Meeting
In front of the welcoming procession five miles away from the Apocalypse Guard's camp, a convoy slowly approached, with the princess's Luan driving in the middle, and five or six chariots guarding around it.
Through the window of Luanjia, you can see a woman dressed in full clothes and wearing a red hijab on her head, which must be one of the protagonists of today's wedding - Princess Qixia.
Xu Rui rode on a horse and walked at the front of the team, accompanied by only a few dozen guards, but the leader of the guards was not Qin Fei, but the armored.
Xu Rui glanced at his gloomy face, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to be able to invite your master, it's not easy." ”
Yaoli rolled his eyes and said hatefully: "If you hadn't asked the shadow maid to pretend to be Princess Qixia, who would have come to accompany you on the adventure?" Did you know that there are not only tens of thousands of troops in the Khan's court, but there may also be a martial saint? ”
Xu Rui sighed: "No way, originally I wanted to invite Xiao Hu to pretend to be Princess Qixia, if he goes out, the power of the Guigu Gate can be mobilized, but the shadow maid is not at ease, and she has to follow her." ”
To be even more annoyed in Wen Yan's heart: "So you let her accompany you to death?" ”
Xu Rui shrugged: "Why send it to death?" When the shadow maid is sent into the cave room of Wuliji, the shadow maid's martial arts can be controlled immediately, and when the time comes, we will coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, isn't it still what we want? ”
He glanced at him with disdain, and snorted coldly: "Don't say anything about your liars, it's disgusting to hear." ”
Xu Rui was stunned: "What do you mean?" ”
Yao Li sneered: "You know what calculations you have in your heart, you can fool those big-headed soldiers, but you can't fool me!" ”
Xu Rui suddenly became interested when he heard this: "I said the same thing in the camp just now, no one objected, how do you know that this plan is fake?" ”
To leave the cold snort and said: "Although I haven't known you for a long time, I have already learned your cunning, you guy doesn't have a word of truth in his mouth, and he even lied to his own people!" ”
Xu Rui shook his head helplessly: "I'm not trying to deceive people, but to achieve the goal, the fewer people who know the truth, the more likely it is to succeed." ”
You have to frown: "You obviously have many ways to judge whether Uliji is in the team to greet relatives, and even if you can not let the shadow maid take the risk, I don't mind taking a trip for you, why do you choose this most dangerous road?" ”
Xu Rui's face suddenly became serious when he heard this: "Because what I want is not only Wuliji's life, but also the overall situation!" ”
"The big picture?"
A hint of incomprehension flashed across his face.
"It's the big picture!"
Xu Rui nodded and said: "This battle is very unfavorable to our army, and I must not only cut off the enemy, provoke the grassland infighting, but also eliminate the living forces of the grassland with as few casualties as possible."
Otherwise, even if we can kill Uliji, or even wipe out his Zanabu, but soon there will be other people, other tribes will take their place, and then I and Apocalypse will still not be able to walk out of the vast grassland, what's the point? ”
wanted to leave Shen Mo for a while, and suddenly looked at Xu Rui seriously.
Xu Rui was stunned for a moment, and said uncomfortably: "Is my face spent?" ”
Yaoli shook his head: "No, it's just that I can't figure out what your hole cards are?" ”
"What hole cards?"
Xu Rui was inexplicable.
Yao Li sneered: "You guy is very sorry for your life, you want so much, and you must pay a lot, so what do you pay?" What are those hole cards that I haven't seen? ”
Xu Rui smiled faintly when he heard this, waved his hand and said, "Don't always say that I am a traitor, how can I feel that you are more cunning?" ”
"Master Hou, long time no see!"
As the two were talking, a hearty voice suddenly came from a distance.
Xu Rui looked up and saw that the team of welcoming relatives suddenly divided into two groups, and a team of majestic grassland knights came out and lined up majestically.
In the middle of the knight, a man wearing a white wolf coat, starry eyebrows and sword eyes, standing out from the crowd, heroic and extraordinary, it is Wu Liji, who has had a relationship with Xu Rui in Changxing City!
"Yes, yes, I haven't seen you for a long time, if I had done you ruthlessly, there would still be so many headaches now?"
Xu Rui thought viciously in his heart, but he grabbed the reins of the horse on his face, and said with a slight fist: "I didn't know that it was the Great Khan in front of me, so please don't take it to heart if you offend the Great Khan." ”
Wu Liji laughed when he heard this, and took out a palm-sized crossbow arrow from his arms, which was the souvenir that Xu Rui shot him with the Qingluan crossbow before.
"At the beginning of Changxing City, although the Hou Ye didn't know my identity, he was really not polite to me."
Uligi laughed.
A hint of ridicule flashed on Xu Rui's face, and he showed weakness: "As the so-called ignorant is not to blame, if the Great Khan reveals his identity earlier, it will not be a crossbow arrow that will entertain you, but a fine wine." ”
"Not necessarily, right?"
Wu Liji said with a smile: "At that time, Hou Ye was accompanied by beautiful women, hugging left and right, it was the time of complacency, but it is a pity that I, Wu Liji, was born to spoil the fun, if I show my identity, it will indeed not be a small crossbow arrow that greets me, I'm afraid it will be the army of Great Wei, right?" ”
"If the Great Khan says so, is he going to use a large army to greet me today?"
Xu Rui asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Uligi burst into laughter again.
Xu Rui also looked at Wu Liji and smiled.
Although both of them were laughing, the people present could clearly feel the compelling smell of gunpowder.
After a while, after Uliji finished laughing, Xu Rui also came to the front of the welcoming team with the carriage and horse.
Wu Liji glanced at Princess Qixia's Luan Jia from a distance, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, I have been walking for more than half a year, and I finally sent my Concubine Khan here." ”
When the grassland people who greeted their relatives heard this, their faces suddenly showed strange expressions, as if they wanted to laugh proudly, but because of Xu Rui's presence, they couldn't let go.
Xu Rui's face stiffened slightly, and then he said with a smile unchanged: "The so-called fair lady and gentleman are good, but there is only one lady, but there are many people waiting for the good one, who knows which gentleman the lady will rely on before she really gets married?" ”
"Oh? So even if they get here, some people still don't give up? ”
Uliji asked with interest.
Xu Rui said calmly: "The Great Khan thinks that he should give up halfway in doing things? ”
Wu Liji shook his head: "It really shouldn't be, but you Han people still have a saying, calling those who know the times to be Junjie, knowing that there is a dead end, you have to hit a stone with an egg, and in the end, you can only harm others and yourself." ”
"It seems that the Great Khan has studied the words of our Han people very much, but the people who fled around with their tails between their legs like dogs at the beginning can pull their books and become high, why can't others?"
Xu Rui's smile became more and more obvious.
Hearing Xu Rui compare himself to a wild dog, Wu Liji was not angry, and said lightly: "So, I'm very curious about how the person who has now become a wild dog will get his money." ”
Xu Rui said with a smile: "Since the Great Khan is so interested, how can I bear to disappoint you?" ”
Wu Liji also shook his head with a smile: "I'm afraid that Hou Ye is easy to say, but it's not so easy to do, right?" ”
Xu Rui was noncommittal, and didn't seem to intend to argue with Wu Liji again.
But just then, a steppe man suddenly rushed from afar on horseback.
"Great Khan, it's not good, the Han people have been killed!"
"What?!"
Wu Liji's eyes widened, and he suddenly looked at Xu Rui.
The surrounding grassland warriors immediately drew their sabers and surrounded Xu Rui and a group of chariots and horses.
