Chapter 314: Hostage Exchange
Qianmu said in his heart: "It is worthy of Ming Haoxuan!" Come with me, underestimate his power, he tricked me here, and attacked my general's mansion while he was unprepared, if this spreads, my general's mansion will be destroyed, where is my general's face, what should I do? ”
Ming Haoxuan knew that he was thinking about his lair, and he was afraid that he would take his general's mansion away.
Nangong Nianxi saw it and said: "Qianmu Ji, although this is your territory, but today I have to take my son away anyway, otherwise it will ......" After speaking, she took out a piece of paper from her pocket, shook it open and there were some dense words on it, and she slowly made a move to tear it up.
Qianmu didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly stopped: "Nangong Nianxi!" I didn't expect that after a few years, you are still so vigorous and resolute, saying that you are a fair exchange, are you not abiding by the agreement, a bit too much! ”
Nangong Nianxi smiled lightly and said, "Then you have so many people behind you and those ...... Is it here to embolden the general? We still know a little about General Qian's character, and now that it is related to my son's safety, then we have to do this. ”
Qian Mu Ji was angry in his heart, but he still forced a smile and said, "Nine princesses! Don't worry! As long as you don't play tricks now, I will return the child to you safely. ”
"General Qian! This king never procrastinates, one hand over things and one hand over people, as long as you dare to play tricks, I will order the demolition of your general's mansion, I heard that General Qian is a big filial son, but there is an old mother in the house and my people talk about home? ”
"Ming Haoxuan! You dare to touch my mother to try it! I'm going to let your son die? When Chiki heard him mention his mother, he was very excited and threatened him with a small stone.
Ming Haoxuan said unhurriedly: "Fair trade!" So please think twice. ”
Nangong Nianxi shook the paper in his hand, Qianmu Ji is also difficult to ride a tiger now, so he has to compromise, and said: "Since this is the case, we will exchange it now, Nangong Nianxi, you bring the drawings, and I will take someone to get it." ”
"No way!" After Ming Haoxuan finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pulled Nangong Nianxi to his side, and said, "Thousand Wood Machine!" You are a dignified general, when did you start calculating a woman who can't do martial arts? What a shame for us men? ”
"Ming Haoxuan! You don't want to spew blood, the drawings are in her hands, what is there for her to come forward to change her son? ”
"The drawings are in Xi'er's hands now, but she can also give them to someone else, Qianmu Ji! Don't procrastinate, if I know you're playing tricks, be careful that you're running out of money? Ming Haoxuan threatened him.
"What a Nine Princes! This time, I admit it, and someone will send this child over? ”
"Dark Night! Be careful, and bring the little stone back to me safely. ”
Receiving the order in the dark night, he took the drawings from Nangong Nianxi's hand, walked to the center of the two teams, stretched out his hand, and the other party also took things in one hand and released them in the other.
At the moment when the other party took the drawing, Xiaoshi jumped up, snatched the drawing from it, kicked it at the lifeline of the enemy who was escorting him, and then deftly hid behind the dark night.
The other party covered his sore spots, grinned and pointed at him and scolded: "Little bastard, you dare to black Lao Tzu? ”
Listening to it in the dark, he replied: "My little prince can't take your turn to scold?" ”
As soon as it was too late, he grabbed his neck and twisted it to the side, and the man immediately lost his breath, and then protected the small stone behind him.
When Qianmu Ji saw that the drawings were robbed and the people were dead, he suddenly changed his face, waved his hand and said: "You don't talk about credit, give me people and things back!" ”
After saying that, everyone under his command rushed up like a swarm, and the night was ready for battle, and the battle was about to break out, at this time, I heard Xiaoshi shouting: "Wait! What do I have to say? ”
Nangong Nianxi and Ming Haoxuan didn't expect their son to have this hand, but the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, even if everyone does it, their side will not necessarily suffer.
Ming Haoxuan was about to face the battle when he heard the voice of his son shouting.
Little Stone shouted, "Listen to me, Thousand Wood Machine!" I can give you the drawings in my hand, but I have a condition? ”
Qianmu was angry, but he still wanted to hear what conditions he had, so he suppressed his anger and said, "Child! Did you know that the consequences of doing so are serious? Are you going to drag down your parents, they can't leave my Thousand Abyss Country? ”
"Don't you scare me? I know you don't dare now, and my request is very simple, let him go for me, and I'll give you the drawings? ”
Nangong Nianxi raised his eyes and saw that there was a person with his hands and feet tied opposite, his eyes were full of gratitude, and he was indeed shaking his head. The mouth shouted: "Little stone! Leave me alone, let's go! ”
Ming Hao said in his heart: "Who is this person, it seems that his son cares about him very much, but in order to please his son, this person must be saved." ”
So he opened his mouth and said, "Thousand Wood Machine!" What my son means is what we mean, and that person is very important to my son, so exchange the drawings, otherwise we will lose both! Do it yourself! However, my patience is limited, and as soon as this signal is raised, my subordinates will be active in your general's mansion. ”
Hearing this, Qianmu hurriedly said, "Don't!" I'll change! I'll change! Let someone get the drawings! ”
This time he was more careful, sent his cronies to snatch back the drawings, and handed them to Qianmu Ji, who saw that the matter was solved, although it was different from his expectations, and the people in the ambush were not used, but at least the drawings were in hand.
looked at Ming Hao and said, "Nine Princes! Nine Princesses! Even if we draw today, I will go back to the General's Mansion now, if I knew that you were lying to me with fake drawings, I would not let you leave the Qianyuan Kingdom safely, and I would have no worries at that time, you would just wait to become a lamb to the slaughter! ”
After speaking, he waved his hand and led everyone, and hurried to the general's mansion.
Xiao Shi had already helped Xiao Tian untie the rope at this time, and Xiao Tian said excitedly: "Xiao Shi! How dangerous it was just now! Don't do this next time, my life is worthless, and it can't compare with your golden branches and jade leaves. ”
"What are you talking about, everyone's life is precious, not to mention that you have shared hardships with me, and you have no place to go in the future, just follow me!" Little Stone comforted him.
Xiao Tian looked up at his parents with an inquiring eye, he already knew that these two were the prince and princess of Haoyue Kingdom. I am still an accomplice involved in the kidnapping of their son, and now I have only helped him a little, will they take him in?
Ming Hao was like a dog, and took the lead in speaking: "I heard that you saved my son's life by Li Ronghao's defection, that is my son's benefactor, since he opened his mouth to keep you, how about you being my son's personal guard?" ”
When Xiao Tian heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and Ming Haoxuan raised his hand and said, "But! Since you want to be a guard, then martial arts are very important, you must first have the ability to protect yourself, so be it! I will send someone to send you back to the palace first, let Steward Su exercise you well, and when Xiaoshi returns to the capital, you will stay by his side. ”
Xiao Tian listened, and said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" I must work diligently and live up to my lord's cultivation of me. ”
Xiao Shi looked at it, his little eyes turned several times, and he said in his heart: "Xiao Tian was brought to the capital by him, so don't my mother and I also want to go back to the palace?" Forget it, Xiao Tian is also guilty of following him, and when he arrives in the capital, maybe there will be a turnaround. ”
Thinking of this, he said to Xiao Tian: "Xiao Tian! Get there, take care of yourself, I'll be looking for you soon! ”
After saying goodbye, he was sent away, Ming Haoxuan took Nangong Nianxi and others back to the inn, the old man Tianyou saw the little stone come back safe and sound, very happy, the little stone threw himself into the old man's arms, in the end he was still a four-year-old child, saw his grandfather who loved him, tears fell and said: "Grandpa!" Worry about me! ”
The old man of Tianyou choked up and said, "My little stone is finally back, you made grandpa worry about death!" The next time you go out, you are not allowed to vomit with people, you know? Do you know that so many people are worried about you? ”
Xiao Shi wiped away his tears and said, "If that person hadn't been angry with me, would I have run away by myself?" ”
The old man of Tianyou shook his head helplessly when he heard this, and Nangong Nianxi looked at the words that interrupted them and said, "Okay, master!" Little rock, let's get out of here! After a while, if Chiki had reacted that the drawings were fake, he wouldn't have let us go so easily. ”
Everyone packed up their simple clothes, bought the horses and hurried on the road, Xu is Qianmu machine has not yet understood the mystery of the drawings, Nangong Nianxi and others easily left the national capital Yeyang.
came to the remote town of the Thousand Abyss Country, calculated the distance, and it would take five or six days to leave the jurisdiction of the Thousand Abyss Country and return to Haoyue.
On this day, people were sleepy and tired, and Nangong Nianxi and others lived in the town, an inn called Laifu.
After dinner, the little stone pestered Nangong Nianxi and returned to the room, closed the door, mother and son went to bed, Nangong Nianxi asked suspiciously: "Son!" Went to bed so early, not like you? ”
Xiao Shi looked at Nangong Nianxi and didn't speak, tilted his head and said, "Mother! Are you going to go back to the capital with that man like this? Have you forgotten how you left in the first place? ”
"I haven't forgotten! My mother just wanted us to be safe, thinking about how to leave? ”
"Really? That's great! Hearing this, Little Stone jumped up on the bed with a long-lost smile on his face.
"Son! As for it? With such happiness, is it because of him that you have been sullen these days? He's your father? ”
"What's wrong with my father? Where was my father when I was born? Where was I when I was bullied? But this time, he also did a job of personnel! ”
"What's the matter?"
"It's just to exchange Xiao Tian back and send him to reform!"
"Gone? He almost died on the road all the way, aren't you moved at all? ”
"He is accompanying his mother, if there is no mother, he will not do that if I live or die? Didn't you see, you haven't returned to the capital yet? His eyes are glowing with blue light, and he stares at his mother wherever he goes, if I don't pay attention, my mother will be snatched away by him. ”
