Chapter 34: Stratagem (2)
In the end, the king is a scheming man, he has no less ambition than Le Changfeng said, but he is afraid of the strength of the Zhiguo army, and he has endured it. This time, the state of Zhi sent an envoy to come, thinking that he had also used this method, but he was afraid that the envoy would be criticized by other small countries, so he did not dare to do it. Now Le Changfeng proposed that he first pretended not to approve of it, and waited for Le Changfeng to tell his plan in its entirety to stimulate Le Changfeng's fighting spirit, and then threw this mess to Le Changfeng. It's really the best of both worlds, and if it succeeds, it can expand the territory of Miaojiang and strengthen the prestige of the country. failed, you can rely on Le Changfeng for all this matter, he only said that he didn't know about it, it was all Le Changfeng's selfishness. In the end, this pot is still long and windy.
So, what about Le Changfeng. And what kind of position is he taking in this matter.
Le Changfeng commanded: "I will live up to Daddy's expectations." ”
Soon the envoys of the Zhiguo Kingdom came, and when I looked up, there was a faint figure shaking outside the main hall. The person who came was dressed in white and dressed in moonlight. The person with a graceful posture and a steady pace is not Gu Xiu.
When I saw him, I was thrilled for a moment. I looked at him as if he were my duckweed's only support. But I thought of Le Changfeng's plan again, and the hope that was ignited at that moment was extinguished like this.
Gu Xiu also saw me, but he just glanced at me in a hurry, and his eyes were very indifferent, as if he didn't know me. He saluted the king: "Gu Xiu, the envoy of the Zhiguo, came to congratulate the king on his peace and safety. ”
On one side of him was a burly, well-looking man. Gu Xiu looked at him, and the man opened the box that had been in the palm of his hand. The bright night pearl light illuminated the entire hall, and even the eyes of the stinging people hurt a little. This light is not like an ordinary night pearl, except for white light and red light, the two are intertwined, like Goryeo magic.
"This is a rare blood-colored night pearl in my Zhi country, there are only three in the whole world, and my emperor of Zhi is fortunate to find one in the East China Sea, and it has been treasured to this day. Now, the emperor of my Zhiguo country specially sent me to give it to the king, hoping that the king likes it. ”
"Miao Jiang and Zhiguo are thousands of miles apart, just let the envoys come, why do you still bring such expensive items." The king only looked at it in a hurry, and then beckoned with a smile: "Come on, give me a seat." ”
I sat opposite Gu Xiu, I really wanted to run over and tell him to get out of here quickly, Miao Jiang and his party were a trap. I was so nervous that my palms were sweaty, and even my hand holding the chopsticks was shaking.
The food was delicious and the barbecue was sweet, but I didn't bother to ask.
"What, you want him to save you?" Le Changfeng whispered in front of me.
I took a bite of bamboo shoots: "Do you think I have a chance?" ”
Le Changfeng raised his eyebrows, as if he was very satisfied with my foresight: "You can try, I guarantee that he will die a miserable death." ”
I sneered: "Don't bother you to promise, just remember to promise me." ”
The graceful dancing girl came on the stage, and the hall was staggered for a while, and the sound of the piano was melodious. The conversation between me and Le Changfeng was muffled by a beautiful singing, and no one could hear what Le Changfeng and I were talking about. Le Mian and I are still in love, he serves me food, I pour wine for him.
Gu Xiu came this time specifically for the affairs of Northern Xinjiang, and he explained that the people who had harassed General Lu Yu three or four times before were not from Zhiguo, but from Lingguo, who had always been at odds with Zhiguo. In the name of the Zhiguo people, they have been invading and brutalizing the people of northern Xinjiang, with the purpose of disrupting the relationship between Miao Jiang and Zhiguo, thus triggering a war. In terms of region, between Miao Jiangli and Zhi and Ling, although the place is not large, it occupies a very important place, and it has always been a place where Zhi and Lingguo compete for it.
The reason is far-fetched and somewhat credible, the king suddenly realized after hearing this, and said to Gu Xiu: "I see, the people of the Ling Kingdom have always been arrogant and domineering, and this king also guessed in his heart that they were making trouble, and now it can be determined." ”
Gu Xiu toasted a glass of wine to the king and said with a smile: "Emperor Zhi means that since Ling Guo is so ignorant of what to do and provoke the relationship between Zhi and Miao Jiang, it is better to take this opportunity to teach Ling Guo a lesson, so that Ling Guo can understand that the friendship between Zhi and Miao Jiang is indestructible." ”
Next, they talked a lot about the governance of the country, and I, as Le Changfeng's concubine, couldn't do anything except accompany the smiling face and listen quietly.
Towards the end of the party, I ate some kelp and felt some abdominal pain. Kelp is a cold food, I didn't touch it before, but this time I was distracted for a long time, and I accidentally ate a little.
I clutched my stomach and pulled the hem of my long trench coat: "My stomach hurts." ”
Le Changfeng looked at me: "Pretended?" ”
The lower abdomen was like a knife, I didn't expect Le Changfeng to still believe me at this time, and said hatefully: "My body is cold, you don't know it, right?" ”
He was very disdainful: "You don't dare to play tricks." ”
I hurriedly retreated from the main hall and followed the instructions of the palace people to the latrine. After some release, I immediately felt refreshed. I got out of the latrine, and when I turned the corner, I was dragged by Gu Xiu into the back of a corridor.
He pulled me to hide behind the begonia flowers, touched my face, and hugged me, as if to confirm whether I was alive. I was confused by him: "What's wrong with you?" ”
Gu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank God, it's good that you're alive." ”
Listening to his tone, it seemed that he knew what happened to me, I was excited for a while, and took his hand: "Save me, save me Gu Xiu, Le Changfeng killed my father, kidnapped me, and imprisoned my mother and eldest brother." Please, save them. ”
Gu Xiu held my hand with his backhand and held my face again: "You don't want to come to Miaojiang with him?" ”
I nodded, and the thought of my father's tragic death under the sword of Le Changfeng made me cry uncontrollably.
"Don't cry." He wiped away my tears with his thumb: "I'm here to save you this time, don't be afraid, you will be able to leave Miao Jiang soon." ”
I nodded with tears in my eyes, and suddenly thought of the conspiracy of Le Changfeng and the king in the hall today, I grabbed Gu Xiu's hand, and what I wanted to say was stunned and opened my mouth a few times before I made a sound: "Le Changfeng wants to harm you." ”
Gu Xiu's face was not surprised at all, as if he had expected Le Changfeng to be like this: "Don't worry, I'll be fine." ”
He comforted me again, and his words were like autumn duckweed, which made my wandering heart settle down a lot. Although I don't know what Gu Xiu's method is, since he can think that Le Changfeng may harm him, there must be a way to solve it. I don't have the heart to think about Gu Xiu so much, I just hope that they will save my mother and eldest brother out while ensuring that they are okay.
I pretended to be casual and continued to compose a good story with Le Changfeng, during the banquet was very calm, a few people drank wine, while watching singing and dancing, the atmosphere was happy. After the banquet, Le Changfeng asked Zhihe to send me home, and I knew that he was going to attack Gu Xiu.
