Chapter 178: Holy Scripture

"The high priest wants to kill two birds with one stone, but I'm afraid that she feels that she can't catch Duosai, and I'm afraid she can also see that Du Du actually has feelings for Duosai." The motive of the high priest was broken by Qi Mo in one word.

Qi Ruo shook his head and sighed: "I see that this high priest is crazy, and Dosai is loyal to her. By the way, are you sure you can put Dudu back? ”

Qi Mo poured Qi Ruo a cup of tea: "Naturally, there is, and wait for two days to see, I am more worried about what will happen to the Huns, Du Du was arrested by us, and the high priest sent someone to find the Huns after that, maybe it was not just about cooperation." ”

Qi Ruo instantly understood what Qi Mo meant: "You mean that she may beg the Huns to bring troops to deter us?" ”

Qi Mo nodded solemnly: "The high priest is not a fool, she is afraid that she will find out that you are fighting with her in the past few days, as for me, she may feel that it is best to eradicate you, and it is better not to use you to deal with me." ”

"What if she really let the Huns send someone over? Can you send some troops to help us? Qi Ruo thought for a while, and then said, "Of course, I can't drag you into the water, if the emperor wants to blame you, even if you have a way, forget it." ”

She knew that if she insisted, Qi Mo would definitely risk the crime of bullying the monarch to help her, but she really didn't want to, she didn't want Qi Mo to take risks because of her anymore.

Qi Mo seemed to be thinking about how to speak, and after a while, he said again: "I have a way here, that is, ...... In fact, I told Ruan Chen before, and Ruan Chen also sent a letter to the emperor, you should understand what the emperor meant, every year the desert is more or less to pay tribute to Daqian, how much is good. ”

Speaking of this, Qi Ruo also understood, the emperor wanted them to express their intention to return to obedience, and the desert has been a vassal state of Daqian since then, so he gave Qi Mo some face, saying that it was a tribute.

Qi Ruo's face turned pale, and he sat for a long time before he said: "Actually, Grandma probably thought of it when she asked you to help me, in fact, it's okay to be able to trade with Daqian, and the desert life can be better, otherwise this yellow sand is full of sky, no matter what, it won't be easy......

The emperor is like this, he will not make a loss-making deal, no matter how good the friendship is.

"Okay, just say yes." Qi Mo stretched out his hand and pinched Qi Ruo's hand, "Actually, I have already sent a message to Ruan Chen, the five thousand elite soldiers I want should have been lurking outside, just wait for the time to be foolproof." ”

Qi Ruo nodded, looking a little careless: "Okay." ”

Qi Mo couldn't see Qi Ruo like this, pressed her shoulders, let her look at herself, and then said: "I have already discussed tactics with Ruan Chen, these five thousand elite soldiers were actually brought by me to attack the Huns." ”

"If you don't want to, it's okay, I'll say that I was discovered by you when I led my troops to attack the Huns, and in exchange, I will help you calm the war inside the desert, and you will let me attack the Huns behind my back."

Qi Ruo smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine, I know that sooner or later there will be this day." ”

She let out a long breath and calmed down, and then she slowly talked to Qi Mo about what she was thinking.

If there is no protection of the great cadres, I am afraid that the Huns will not give up, even if the Huns are defeated and have no energy to do it, the surrounding neighbors will not let go of such opportunities. In fact, this is good, the terrain of the desert is a semi-encirclement of the Xiongnu, and the desert and the Xiongnu do not dare to act rashly when they join forces with the Daqian. ”

She held Qi Mo's hand back: "I understand the truth, and I want to be clear, don't worry." ”

Qi Mo couldn't help himself, stepped forward and kissed Qi Ruo's forehead, and then offset his forehead against hers.

"The daughter-in-law has such an awareness, which makes her husband ashamed."

Qi Ruojiao smiled and lightly hammered Qi Mo: "You know how to tease me." ”

The two of them said something considerate and turned back to business.

Qi Ruo will encounter Duosai's post today. I told Qi Mo about the maid, and took out the letter and gave it to him.

Qi Mo looked at the envelope over and over again, and said with a smile: "This maid is also smart and knows how to tell you things." ”

Then he will open the letter.

Qi Ruo's original intention was to stop Qi Mo, but after thinking about it, he still didn't speak.

Now is not the time to speak of the way of a gentleman, and it would be bad if Dosai said something against them in his letter, and all their efforts would be in vain.

"I didn't say anything, probably it was Dosai who persuaded Du Du to leave the high priest, saying that the high priest was ruthless and not a good person."

This is also a peace of mind.

"Then I'll send someone to deliver a letter to her, and we have an extra bargaining chip here."

After receiving this letter, Qi Ruo received a reply from Du Du, probably saying that she knew that she had sinned deeply before, and had done a lot of immoral things for the high priest, so that she could rest assured that she would do her best to help them in the future.

After the matter was done, Qi Ruo couldn't help but feel a little stunned again, he still had to take this step in order to achieve his goal.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, Qi Ruo asked someone to protect Amoyya, and he dressed up and prepared to go to a life-and-death struggle.

This kind of holy ceremony has always been held on the high platform in the center of the desert capital, and the people can come to watch the ceremony, and Qi Mo, who left a day earlier, stood in the crowd and looked at Qi Ruo who slowly walked up to the high platform.

Qi Ruo'er was dressed very gorgeously today, dressed in white clothes, embroidered with gold thread with Duoduo Manshu Sahua, wearing a high golden hair crown on her head, it was very heavy at first glance, she didn't dare to move her neck, for fear that she would accidentally throw out the thing on her head.

Qi Mo looked at Qi Ruo from below, but it was undeniable that it was beautiful.

No, the people around him were in an uproar, and they all whispered about how beautiful and dignified their new Queen Majesty was.

The high priest was already waiting for Qi Ruo in the center of the high platform, and when she stood still in front of her, she sang loudly and began to hold the succession ceremony.

The high priest recited words in his mouth, walked around Qi Ruo with a bowl of water, and from time to time tapped with his thumb and forefinger, bringing out water droplets and sprinkling them on her.

At this moment, the high priest's singing voice disappeared, and she fell to her knees in astonishment.

"The water is dark, and the goddess is to blame."

When the people heard this, they knelt down one after another.

Seeing this, Qi Mo also knelt on the ground along with them.

Qi Ruo didn't know what the high priest meant, but he knew that she had bad intentions, so he simply stood aside and waited.

No, then I heard her say: "The goddess forgives her sins, but the believer does not know, so she will inform the people of the desert of your will." ”

As she spoke, she stood up and said to the people of the desert who were kneeling: "The goddess has a saying, our princess Aroye is not of the same heart as the desert, and her body and mind are dirty. Turbidity infected, unable to succeed to the throne. ”

As soon as these words came out, the originally quiet people were like a stone suddenly thrown into the calm surface of the lake, which suddenly stirred up bursts of ripples.

"How can the high priest speak with this bowl of water?" Qi Ruo asked.

As if frightened, the high priest rebuked, "Princess, this is holy water, don't be rude to what the goddess has given you!" ”

Qi Ruo sneered: "I don't dare to be rude to the things given by the goddess, and I should be in awe, but the high priest is the person whom the goddess believes?" He is really a person who can listen to the will of God and Goddess. ”

The people of the desert are convinced that the desert is blessed by the goddess, and this concept cannot be changed overnight, nor does it mean that the goddess has a problem because the high priest has a problem, they can only use this to weaken the trust of the desert people in the high priest and the temple behind him.

As soon as Qi Ruo's words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and the high priest took advantage of the situation to reprimand angrily: "Princess, how dare you be disrespectful to the goddess? What if the goddess blames me for the desert? ”

As soon as the high priest said this, I don't know who took the lead, and the crusade against Qi Ruo gradually became louder.

"Punish the princess and comfort the goddess; Punish the princess and comfort the goddess ......"

Qi Ruo was not afraid of the accusations of everyone present against him, and said word by word: "I am full of admiration for the goddess, but the high priest, have you ever been in awe of the goddess, or do you think that you are the god of my desert, and my desert royal family and its people should be resigned to you?" How much do my desert people trust you, and how do you deceive my desert people! ”

"The high priest is guided by the mandate of heaven to go in the desert, and the princess is disrespectful to the high priest, and she should be severely punished!" A man stood in the midst of the people and shouted.

Qi Ruo knew that this was the person the high priest had already found, and he wanted to accuse her of being an unrespectful goddess today, and then she would not be qualified to inherit the throne, and Amoya would not be able to come back to inherit the throne, so of course she was the so-called destiny of heaven.

"Okay, I'll tell you why this book is black!"

Qi Ruo asked Dan Zhi to bring a bowl of water, and then took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve, smeared the medicine powder in his hand, and then stirred it a few times before the water slowly turned black.

"Behold, this is how the waters are blackened! It's just the effect of medicine, how can I say that I am not the heir to the throne designated by the goddess? How dare you assert that it is not the High Priest who framed me? ”

One of the people who had just incited the people came forward to accuse Qi Ruo.

"Who knows what kind of sorcery you're doing? You can make the water black, and the high priest will know about it? The High Priest will be a fairy! ”

Qi Mo couldn't stand on his knees, and also stood up, and said disdainfully to the man: "It's all the same spell, why do you say that the princess is using witchcraft?" If you want me to say, the high priest is a witch! ”

He looked at the people who were still kneeling on the ground, and said slowly, "After all, the high priest has a child, and he is not undefiled. The woman who served the goddess with all her heart, how do you know if the goddess was angry with the high priest and unwilling to let her touch the holy water she gave to turn into black water. ”

This reminiscent of the recent rumors that the high priest actually had an affair with someone in private and already had an heir!

At this moment, Du Du stood up and pointed out: "Not only that, but the high priest also killed her husband, even her old mother, who has taken care of her since she was a child, which shows her evil intentions!" ”

The high priest did not expect Du Du to betray him, and said angrily: "You ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was covered by Qi Mo's voice: "This is not a post next to the high priest. A waitress. ”

Suddenly, the situation was reversed.
