Chapter 310: Changing Guards and Entering the Palace
After hearing this, Ming Qingyan did not speak, but looked at Tuoba Hongyu, after all, he was the prince of Xiliang and had the most right to speak.
Tuoba Hongyu pondered for a while and felt that this method was feasible.
Every day, the Emperor of Northern Mongolia would send a team of men and horses from the Northern Mongolian soldiers to garrison the palace as a Praetorian Guard, so as to prevent some of the Northern Mongolian soldiers from being bribed, so as to make a combination of internal and external behavior.
Therefore, the people stationed in the palace are different every day, so naturally there is no such possibility, and it will be safer.
It's just that he didn't expect that Ning Shangmo would take advantage of the loophole at this time.
Tuoba Hongyu said loudly: "Okay, then do it." The soldiers who will be stationed in the palace tomorrow are from the north of the city. When the time comes, when the rooster crows twice, they will set out from the camp to the palace to change guards. You can set up an ambush on the road and replace it with your own people. ”
Ning Shangmo was naturally very happy to hear that this method was feasible, she didn't expect things to go so smoothly, the Emperor of Beimeng would have such a hobby, and the soldiers stationed in the palace were different every day.
She couldn't help but clapped her hands and laughed, "Great, it seems to have been specially prepared for our plan." ”
Ming Qingyan also nodded happily, and the shopkeeper who was standing guard at the door at this time couldn't help but nod secretly, it was really heaven's help.
Tuoba Hongyu saw that everyone was very happy, and said again: "Can you not hurt those Northern Mongolian soldiers?" They are all well-to-do people, and their families hope that they can return safely. ”
When Ning Shangmo heard this, he was moved by his kindness, and nodded in response: "Don't worry, we won't hurt them, I will stun them with ** first, then take off their military uniforms, hide them somewhere, and when they wake up, our affairs will be fine, and they will naturally go back." ”
Tuoba Hongyu nodded reassuringly when he heard this: "That's very good." ”
Subsequently, they made a more elaborate plan, how to rescue the eldest princess and his wife from the secret room and minimize the casualties.
Finally everything was negotiated, and Ning Shangmo smiled at this time: "I'm hungry, let's eat." ”
Ming looked out the window and said with a smile: "Isn't it, it's dark." ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately went downstairs to the back kitchen, brought out a delicious meal, and sent it upstairs.
After he entered the door, he smiled and said, "Your Highness Hongyu, you can taste this dish, it doesn't suit your taste." ”
Tuoba Hongyu smiled: "It smells fragrant, it must be delicious." ”
Then he asked the shopkeeper, "Are my two attendants alright?" ”
The shopkeeper of the restaurant smiled and said, "They are eating and drinking happily, Your Highness don't worry." ”
Tuoba Hongyu nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Thank you for taking care of it." ”
Although Beimeng and Da Ling are at war, but at this time he feels that it is also a very happy thing to make friends with Da Ling, everyone is kind, not a natural enemy, why fight and kill? They all follow the frontier boundaries left by their ancestors, and they are safe and sound, how good is it to coexist peacefully?
Moreover, bilateral trade can be exchanged, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the emperor is also worry-free, isn't it?
He really didn't understand why his father had to attack Daling, and fantasized that he could move the Beimeng royal court to Daling Imperial City. The Imperial City of Daling is the hinterland of Daling, how could it become the royal court of Northern Mongolia?
He also knew that at this time, his interaction with Ning Shangmo and the others was against his father, but he couldn't help but make such a choice, all for the sake of the upcoming peace.
Thinking like this, I was relieved in my heart, and I didn't feel that I was betraying Beimeng.
There will always be a day when it will be proved that he is right to do this, not only for Da Ling, but also for Beimeng, I hope that my father can understand his suffering, and for this reason, even if he accepts a serious punishment, he is willing.
Ning Shangmo saw that he didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something, and asked cautiously, "Are you a little worried?" Will your father blame you? ”
Tuoba Hongyu shook his head and smiled: "I have figured it out, I have not been sorry for Beimeng, let alone my father, I am just working hard for the truce, this is the wish of the common people." ”
Ning Shangmo nodded reassuringly and smiled: "That's exactly the case, in fact, if there is no truce, our Daling and Xiliang alliance will definitely be able to counterattack into Northern Mongolia." However, we don't like war, there will be sacrifices when there is war, and the lives of soldiers will be used as the price, even if we capture the Xiliang Royal Court, what can we do? It is difficult for the land of Xiliang to be transformed by Daling, and the land of Daling may not be enslaved by Northern Mongolia. ”
When Tuoba Hongyu heard this, he immediately picked up his wine glass and said: "These words have come to my heart, let's toast to our common wishes!" ”
Ning Shangmo and Ming Qingyan also picked up their wine glasses and said with a smile: "Cheers to our common wish." ”
After a pleasant dinner, Tuoba Hongyu and his two already drunk retinues were sent back to the house by the shopkeeper of the restaurant.
And Ming Qingyan and Ning Shangmo discussed with the shopkeeper of the restaurant how to replace the plan of the Northern Mongolian soldiers tomorrow morning.
By the time they discussed the plan and found a good person, it was already the third watch.
So, the two didn't dare to delay any longer, and went to bed early to rest, in order to recuperate.
The next day, before dawn they got up.
Ning Shangmo and Ming Qingyan both dressed up in disguise and put on masks, if they didn't enter the Northern Mongolian team, they would naturally not be at ease, so they decided to go into battle in person, just to change their appearance, if it wasn't easy to be discovered by the Northern Mongolian Emperor and others.
Dressed properly, they took the people who had already prepared to gather the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and ambushed in a secluded place on the road leading from the north gate of the city to the palace of the Beimeng Emperor, waiting for the Beimeng soldiers to approach. Ning Shangmo waved his hand, and everyone blew ** together, so the Northern Mongolian soldiers were stunned.
After a while, it is estimated that the medicinal properties have completely attacked, and those Northern Mongolian soldiers have lost their minds.
So everyone rushed up, dragged the Beimeng soldiers into the abandoned courtyard next to them, and then took off their Beimeng clothes, changed them into themselves, dressed neatly, picked up their weapons, quickly assembled, and then walked out of the courtyard.
Ning Shangmo whispered to everyone, "I have told everyone the things that need to be paid attention to, I hope you must remember, don't panic, just treat yourself as a Northern Mongolian soldier." ”
Everyone nodded in agreement, so she ordered the team to continue until it entered the palace of the Northern Mongolian Emperor.
It just so happened that this team was on duty on the first day, so there were many things that they didn't understand, and they needed to be commanded by the Praetorian Guards around Emperor Beimeng, so it also covered up Ning Shangmo's actions, so as not to understand anything and let people see the flaws.
In fact, their task was not difficult, some of them were arranged to guard the palace, and some of them stood in the courtyard of the Beimeng Emperor's bedroom.
At about three o'clock in the morning, the Emperor of Beimeng had finished breakfast, and when he was bored, he took a few relatives to the underground secret room to bring out the eldest princess of Xiliang and his wife, and brought them to the west wing room temporarily set up as an interrogation room.
Ning Shangmo, Ming Qingyan and others were called over and were responsible for the torture of the eldest princess and his wife.
Emperor Beimeng was also quite merciful, and the punishment of the eldest princess of Xiliang was relatively light, but the husband of the eldest princess of Xiliang was not so lucky, and he was beaten all over his body.
However, this is also the viciousness of Emperor Beimeng, he can see that the two love each other very much, so the torture of Qin Zhigang makes her more painful than the torture of the eldest princess of Xiliang.
Ning Shangmo was mixed in the ranks of the pretending Northern Mongolian soldiers, and she couldn't stand it anymore.
She could see that the eldest princess of Xiliang was pale and in a very bad state, and she was very worried.
I couldn't help but turn my head to look at Ming Qingyan, wanting him to order him to act as soon as possible.
Ming Qingyan shook his head at her slightly, making her calm down, waiting for the time, if it wasn't enough, it would only mess things up to the cost.
Ning Shangmo didn't care about acting rashly, so he had to wait patiently.
Emperor Beimeng watched Qin Zhigang torture for a while, as if he was tired and annoyed, so he ordered them to continue to go out on their own.
Ning Shangmo looked at Ming Qingyan again, Ming Qingyan still made her feel a little calm, and she twisted her head away angrily.
Then he looked at the eldest princess of Xiliang, who was already dressed in disguise and wearing a mask at this time, so the eldest princess of Xiliang did not recognize her. Seeing that she had been staring at her, she was very nervous, and her body couldn't help but tremble.
Ning Shangmo sighed helplessly, originally wanting to comfort her, but she thought he was a bad person.
Think about it, now her identity is a soldier from Northern Mongolia. The eldest princess of Xiliang thought that she had taken a fancy to her, so she was naturally very nervous and scared.
Finally, Ming Qingyan said that Emperor Beimeng had already gone away, and the entourage around him was not in the interrogation room, so he said to everyone: "Hurry up and untie them." ”
As he spoke, he walked to Qin Zhigang's side and said loudly: "It's me, Ming Qingyan, we are here to save you." ”
Ning Shangmo also walked to the side of the eldest princess of Xiliang and said loudly: "I am Ning Shangmo, sister, we are here to save you." ”
The eldest princess of Xiliang and his wife realized that it was Ning Shangmo who interrogated them today, and they couldn't help but say happily: "Great, you are finally here." ”
Then, she asked worriedly: "This is in the palace of the Emperor of Beimeng, it is too dangerous for you to do this, leave us alone, you can leave quickly, otherwise, everyone will be in trouble if they are caught." ”
Ning Shangmo shook his head and said, "Sister, don't worry, we have already arranged everything." ”
After speaking, she asked lightly, "Shall we go now?" ”
Ming nodded lightly and replied: "There was a signal outside just now, and the road to the back garden is guarded by our people, let's go quickly." ”
"Okay, let's go." Ning Shangmo helped the eldest princess of Xiliang to answer.
In order to prevent being discovered, they changed two sets of Beimeng soldiers prepared in advance to the eldest princess and his wife in Xiliang, and then took them to the back garden together.
On the way, he met an entourage beside Emperor Beimeng, and when he saw the appearance of the eldest princess and his wife, he couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter with them?" ”
"They have a bad stomach and have diarrhea all the time." Ning Shangmo hurriedly said loudly: "It's all about to collapse." ”
