Text Chapter 298: The Battle of the Heart

When the news of Moyun's army breaking through Liaocheng reached the capital of Chiyan Kingdom, the monarch of Chiyan Kingdom, who was in the upper court, was so frightened that he almost fell off the dragon chair. In fact, this can't blame Chiyan monarch for being timid, but Yun Yuhong is too terrible in the hearts of these monarchs, first Yuxue, then Ruifeng, as long as she attacks the past, she will be unstoppable, and she will die in a country in a few months. And now that she has entered Chiyan, isn't it saying that Chiyan is not far from the country.

The ministers also exclaimed, the ghost king is here, the ghost king has led the troops to attack, what should I do now, who can lead the army to resist the enemy, who can defeat the ghost king, what should we do now, or how about we go to them to talk about the reconciliation between the two countries? The ministers talked a lot and said everything.

The Chiyan Monarch calmed down and asked an old man on the side, "Scholar Zhou, didn't you say a few days ago that Qi Hao had blocked the Moyun army at the border pass, didn't you still win several battles?" Why is it so quickly defeated now? ”

Scholar Zhong was also stunned for a moment, and then cautiously replied: "That's a battle with General Jiang, and the two of them may be tied, but the ghost king is different, no matter how powerful Qi Hao is, how can he be the opponent of the ghost king." ”

The Red Flame Monarch nodded, deeply convinced. Turning to the ministers, he asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, what other good strategies do you have to retreat from the enemy now?" ”

A general stepped forward and said: "Back to the emperor, the last general thinks that the old general Ji Ran Ji should be reactivated, he set up a formation at the border pass, but he blocked the army of the ghost king, and the ghost king himself went to break through once and did not break through." Now you should rely on the formation of General Ji. ”

Chiyan Guojun had a look of hesitation on his face, and another minister immediately stepped forward and said: "This Ji Ran's precious granddaughter is still in the Moyun army, how can Ji Ran ignore his granddaughter's life and do his best to fight against the ghost king, this method is not possible, I suggest that the emperor send another general to intercept the ghost king's army is the best policy." ”

The general hurriedly said: "How can General Ji Lao be such a person who does not distinguish between public and private, besides, in addition to General Ji's formation can stop the footsteps of Moyun's army, what other generals can have the ability to block the ghost king, in this world, the ghost king is the first in the world in addition to martial arts, and the means of leading the troops to fight are not a leader, since she was born, there have been more than 100 big battles and small battles, but there has been no defeat, which is not comparable to everyone." Your Majesty, if you don't let General Ji make a move, everything may be too late. ”

The ministers were quiet for a while, the general was right, the power of the ghost king has long been known to the world, and there is no need to talk about it in detail, Chiyan really has no generals who can match her now. Ji Ran's formation may still be able to stop her for a while, and several other generals also stood up and advocated the use of Ji Ran together, but this time there was no opposition.

The monarch of Chiyan was still a little hesitant, Ji Ran was not on his side when he was still the prince, and after he ascended the throne, he suppressed the Ji family for so many years, could Ji Ran have any ideas in his heart? Can you still do your best for him on the battlefield? Originally, it was a little reluctant to let him go, but after all, it could be regarded as giving him a chance to be promoted, and he could still do his best, but his granddaughter was arrested again, and he also let go of Moyun's eldest prince without permission and wanted to exchange, how can such a person be used again? But without him, who can use it?

The Emperor of Chiyan didn't speak, and Scholar Zhong said: "Your Majesty, in fact, Ji Ran's formation is indeed exquisite and can be used, but I heard that several of his grandsons are not very good at learning, and it is useless to go to the battlefield, but they don't need to follow anymore, it is better to let them stay and defend the capital." "Mo Yun caught the granddaughter of the Ji family and asked Ji Ran to throw a mouse, then we will detain several of his grandsons and force Ji Ran to comply, to see if he values his granddaughter or his grandson?

When the Emperor of Chiyan heard this, he immediately shouted: "Okay, what this scholar Zhong said is very agreeable, so I will follow what Scholar Zhong said." came, sent Ji Ran to lead 400,000 troops, and immediately set out to fight against the Moyun army. His grandsons were all appointed as deputy generals of the patrol battalion and were responsible for the security of the capital. ”

The ministers didn't dare to say anything, but many people felt a slight chill in their hearts, and the emperor was so suspicious of Geng Zhi's old ministers, which was too chilling.

An imperial historian stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, there are some rumors coming from the front line, and the minister thinks that it is better to report one or two to the emperor." ”

Chiyan Guojun frowned, at this time, the war had not been discussed, what rumors were there, but when it came from the front line, he couldn't help but listen, so he had to say impatiently: "If you have any gossip, hurry up!" ”

Yu Shi replied: "It is rumored on the front line that the ghost king took the initiative to attack the city this time, still because the two people she hated the most were in Chiyan, and it was rumored that if the emperor thought of buying from Mo Yun and begging for mercy, he would also need to sacrifice the vicious Zhong Daxue and the poisoned medicine valley lord Bai Qi, these two people will hurt the ghost king so much, if you don't hand over these two people, everything will not be discussed." ”

Everyone's eyes invariably fell on Scholar Zhong, but many people secretly screamed in their hearts, this Scholar Zhong is not less evil on weekdays, in order to please the monarch, there are no less bad ideas, but he is also deeply loved by the monarch, no one dares to provoke the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, but now it is the wicked who have their own wicked grinding, and the ghost king will not let him have a good time, and now the ghost king is coming to you, see how you want to resolve it.

Scholar Zhong couldn't help but tremble, and suddenly felt a chill down his spine, it was not very comfortable to be targeted by the ghost king, especially with the white valley lord who sacrificed poison and harmed people, once he fell into the hands of the ghost king in the future, he would definitely not die well, of course, Now he has to guard against the hands and feet of the monarch, after all, the monarch is not a bold, affectionate and righteous person.

Looking up, but seeing that the eyes of the Chiyan monarch had a few thoughts, Scholar Zhong secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, don't listen to the rumors of the people, this may be a person with a heart who has wronged the officials." Moreover, the minister has always been loyal to the country and has won the trust of the emperor, so he must have been jealous of the villain, and he hoped that the emperor would investigate clearly. ”

Chiyan Guojun nodded and said, "Scholar Zhong is reasonable, of course I will not hand you over to sue for peace, this must be a plan of discord among others, and I will not take it to heart." ”

Scholar Zhong stood up after thanking him and turned his head to look at the other ministers, but many of them had unkind eyes and were still uneasy in their hearts.

After a while, the court meeting ended, and the ministers withdrew, but Scholar Zhong deliberately stayed.

Chiyan Guojun asked, "Scholar Zhong, you said that it has been so long now, but there is no news from Mo Yunbing, is this plan failing again?" ”

Scholar Zhong said: "Your Majesty, I also feel strange about this matter, it stands to reason that Zeyu's General Mo arranged it single-handedly, and it should not go wrong, but why didn't he react, but instead let the Moyun Army have the ability to attack our country, this really shouldn't be, it seems that only this strategy will not work, we should think of other ways." ”

Chiyan Guojun pulled Scholar Zhong to discuss for a long time before letting Scholar Zhong leave.

And after Scholar Zhong left, the Chiyan Monarch called out the leader of the secret guards beside him and ordered: "You go and arrest that Bai Qixian and throw him into the prison, remember to clean up his things, don't let him have a chance to die." First of all, he was entertained, saying that he wanted to protect his life. This person should be protected in case of emergency. As for the Scholar Chung, keep an eye on him so that you don't disturb him. ”

The leader of the Dark Guard took the order and left. The Emperor of Chiyan breathed a sigh of relief, these two people were his life talismans, once the country really died, and he really came to the last step, he would sacrifice the two people hated the most by the ghost king, maybe it would calm the anger of the ghost king and make his life better. The ghost king didn't kill Ruifeng's royal family because there was a word first, and they wouldn't kill them if they descended, but when they came to him, they weren't necessarily so magnanimous, after all, he sent people to poison him at the beginning, which made the ghost king suffer a lot.

The monarch of Chiyan was sitting and thinking about his thoughts, but a palace official came up below: "Your Majesty, I just received a message that Ji Feiling, the granddaughter of the Ji family, is back." ”

"I'm back, how did I come back?" The Red Flame Monarch exclaimed.

The palace man replied: "I don't know, but the people who saw Miss Ji said that Miss Ji was not injured, and she looked very energetic, as if she didn't suffer a little in the Moyun Army, and I didn't hear that someone was chasing her, so she might have been put back." ”

The Monarch of Chiyan Country slapped the table angrily, "Ji Ran, Ji Ran, he also said that he didn't exchange the Great Prince of Moyun for his granddaughter, and he always said that it was my people who wronged him, it was really too deceitful, now look at how he quibbles." Hmph, if he hadn't let go of the eldest prince at the beginning, how could there be this situation now. Come on, pass the order, the Ji family is suspected of collaborating with the enemy, put the Ji family in prison, you go and tell Ji Ran, if he wins the battle on the front line, then it's okay, if he dares to lose to Mo Yun, then I will take his family to the knife. ”

The palace people hurriedly said yes, and went down to spread the word.

The leader of the dark guard went to arrest Bai Qixian, but when he arrived at a secret courtyard, he saw people lying on the ground, but Bai Qixian was gone.

Walking around the house inside and outside, it didn't look like someone had come to assassinate Bai Qixian, but more like Bai Qixian's hands and feet. Fortunately, the people on the ground were only unconscious, and the leader of the dark guard picked up a bucket of water and threw it at one of the guards, who quickly woke up.

The leader of the dark guard asked what happened, but it turned out that this Bai Qixian also got Yun Yuhong to pressure Chiyan and ask him to be handed over, and at the moment this Bai Qixian couldn't sit still, through this period of time and the Chiyan monarch, Bai Qixian really felt that this Chiyan monarch was not a hard-tempered person, he didn't want to be sent to the ghost king, that waiting for him could only be a death, no, it was more likely that life was better than death, so he used drugs to stun everyone, and then escaped.

The leader of the dark guard returned to the king of Chiyan, so the king of Chiyan sent a large number of men and horses to secretly capture Bai Qixian, and Bai Qixian lived a life of hiding in Tibet and fleeing.
