On the surface, Su Hui is more mature than Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying. But in fact, in terms of age alone, the current Su Hui is not much older than these two girls, but in terms of face and calmness, Su Hui is more stable than these two girls. This is not only because of her own responsibilities, but also because of the experiences she has experienced since childhood.

It is precisely because of this that when the first conversation was secretly held in this house, although Su Hui was not obvious on the surface, she secretly had a lot of upper hand without moving. For example, she asked the real purpose of the two girls, Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying, who came here without moving, but these two girls still haven't found out the situation and situation within the feudal country, and they can't even understand the specific attitude of the feudal country now, and whether the two of them will have a change in attitude.

Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying, the two girls, although their reaction speed is still very agile, and their thoughts can catch up with Su Hui's speed of changing the topic. But after all, they had never experienced this kind of saber-rattling momentum at the negotiation table, which really made it difficult for Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying, two inexperienced young people, to catch up with Su Hui's thinking. Su Hui was able to inadvertently push the two girls into a disadvantage.

Although Su Hui knew that what Bu Lian needed most at the moment was the support of these external forces, which would be very helpful to redeem the current morally unfavorable situation of the feudal country. However, although Bu Lian herself is willing to unconditionally support other forces in exchange for their support, Su Hui does not fully agree with this. She believes that it is important to redeem the impact of the arrival of the Dark Legion, but if she helps and agrees unconditionally, the other party is likely to open her mouth.

For now, Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying have not fully revealed the purpose of their visit, but they have also said that they are currently facing a lack of food in the country. From this, Su Hui could probably deduce why the Qi country represented by these two girls came here. They have been besieged by the Dark Legion for several months, and there must be a shortage of food and military equipment. Unable to support themselves on their own, they thought of seeking support from outside forces. Compared with leaving the country that is too far away, they are indeed the easiest country to get support from Qi at present.

"In that case, I already know the purpose of the two of you. Su Hui's eyes rolled, she didn't want to deliberately embarrass the two girls in front of her, these two girls only needed a little bit to know that they had no negotiation experience. This kind of thing doesn't just need to be clever and clever to undo, Su Hui took the opportunity to say, "It's an honor for Qi Guo to be able to reach contact with us, and the two sides will work together to deal with the Dark Legion." It's just that, as you know, the recent situation of our closure is not good, and the grain taxes in various places this year have also been greatly discounted compared with previous years. It may not be possible to provide very effective assistance. ”

Speaking lightly, he inadvertently took the initiative into his own hands, increased the value of what the feudal country itself demanded, and deliberately said that they were also short of food at present, but also wanted to make Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying, the two girls, put forward the bottom line of Qi State, at least to offset the income and expenditure.

Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying, two girls, have never been to the negotiation table, although they have a strong ability to handle things and adapt to changes, but after all, they are still inexperienced, and it is difficult to capture their true intentions from other people's words.

Su Hui's words immediately caused the two girls to worry, Feng Shanshan was worried about food in her heart, because it was directly related to whether they could survive, so she said a little impatiently: "General Su, we are not deliberately embarrassed, in fact, the domestic situation is in crisis, and the current siege of the dark army is still not retreating, and the soldiers and civilians in the city are short of food, so they are really willing but powerless." ”

Feng Shanshan's words in a hurry didn't seem to be inappropriate, but Su Hui further captured the urgency of the two girls to borrow grain, and she was just about to open her mouth to respond, when a gentle knock suddenly came from the wooden staircase. Su Hui immediately realized that this was the message that the guards of the Xuanyi Women's Army wanted to tell her after getting the news outside, and Su Hui immediately stood up and followed the sound down the stairs.

At the bottom of the stairs, a figure suddenly appeared running very quickly, this figure stood on the edge of the wooden steps, and a middle-aged woman wearing the clothes of a housekeeper quietly appeared here. Seeing Su Hui's head poking out from upstairs, the middle-aged woman with a plump figure and a slightly red face immediately shouted: "General Su, the queen mother has sent someone to find you, saying that there is something in the court that needs you to confront you in person." ”

"What? I didn't expect this to happen so quickly. Su Hui didn't expect this matter to come so quickly, she had already guessed that yesterday, in order to bring Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying into the city, they took the opportunity to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the two Huqing army guards to carry out a sneak attack with cartilage, how could these two Huqing army guards give up? They will inevitably report this matter to the authorities, and finally this news will inevitably be conveyed to Yue Ji, the commander of the Huqing Army and the henchman of the Holy Emperor Zheng Junchao.

Su Hui could also guess that this Yue Ji would definitely not give up easily, especially when the two girls, Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying, had even been tacitly regarded as spies of the enemy country, how could she, the commander of the Xuanyi Women's Army, who happened to appear at the scene at that time and had a conversation with the two Huqing Army guards, be able to get rid of this? Among them, there must be inextricable connections, and Yue Ji would suspect her, which Su Hui was not surprising.

She was just a little curious, this Yue Ji actually told Empress Bulian directly about this matter in the early court today, and his intention was probably not only to find the three people who had charmed the Huqing army guards and infiltrated the city yesterday evening, I am afraid that he also had other deeper purposes.

Sighing slightly, Su Hui knew that she would probably not be able to avoid this confrontation in the court, and she didn't have time to continue to explore the purpose of Qi Guo with Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying now. She turned around and said a little apologetically: "Two, I'm really sorry, it seems that yesterday's incident happened today, and the queen mother announced that I would go to the court to confront me." Perhaps, the two of you will have to wait here for a while. ”

Luo Yinying asked with some concern, "General Su, will yesterday's incident have any impact on you?"

Su Hui smiled indifferently, "Impact, to be honest, I don't know what the consequences will be, but it's best for you to stay here for the time being." As for me, you don't need to worry, I'm enough to protect myself. ”

After saying this, Su Hui walked down the steps and left the house, and the middle-aged woman who came to report the news also left behind her, Feng Shanshan and Luo Yinying, the two girls, were still sitting on the second floor of this house, hiding from the patrol guards who had begun to appear on the street, and through the window, they could slightly see the clothes of these sergeants, which were almost the same as the two Huqing army guards they encountered at the gate of the East City yesterday. The two girls looked at each other, it seemed that this matter had really caused an uproar in Zhongcheng, and all the originally peaceful situations inside and outside the city seemed to have been invisibly mobilized.

......

Sealing the northern border of the country, since the army of leaving the country withdrew to Shengcheng, this originally deserted and lonely city has gradually begun to rejuvenate, although the two forces of the country and the white-clothed goddess force themselves still have subtle contradictions, but after all, the current enemy, the country did not bring all the troops into the city, but stationed outside the city step by step. Only Kong Hong, the commander of the country, and her more than 300 guards lived in the noble hotel in the city.

The general guarding in Shengcheng was a young general promoted after the white-clothed Tiannu forces, and it was also after the white-clothed Tiannu forces retreated to the Qingming Mountain Range, Gongsun Yu gradually revealed his ambitions, and the two princesses, Bu Luan and Bu Yuehan, realized the importance of selecting talents. Bu Luan promoted several low-level generals who were originally in the white-clothed celestial girl forces, personally tested them, and finally selected the most capable one, that is, Deng Yi, who is now guarding the city and commanding more than 3,000 white-clothed celestial girl forces to defend the city.

Although Deng Yi is only in his early twenties, he is still very outstanding in terms of talent and personal ability, and he is also a descendant of Deng Yu, a former feudal general. His family's martial arts and art of war are very famous, and Deng Yi is now just lacking experience and actual combat ability, and he still needs to be trained. Bu Luan also knew this, so he let Deng Yi be mainly responsible for guarding Shengcheng and dispatching all parties to stabilize the situation. For Deng Yi, he can not only give full play to his personal ability, but also exercise the ability of the Duzhen side, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

After Kong Hong led 30,000 troops to temporarily withdraw to Shengcheng, he suddenly changed the balance of this, holding 30,000 troops and Bu Luan's handwritten letters, although Kong Hong deployed the army outside the city to temporarily garrison, she successfully took over the military and political power inside and outside Shengcheng with more than 300 personal guards, and Deng Yi became a deputy general.

In the past few days, Kong Hong has been secretly sending sentries to various places to collect information, and sent his henchmen back to the Xuanling Continent to report the current situation to Empress Chen Xinyu of Shengde, and then wait for the opportunity to lead the army from the northern Xuanling Continent to the Dark Legion. Of course, the premise of doing so is that you still need to take into account the current situation on the Xuanling Continent.

It will take time to collect information from all over the world, so Kong Hong thought of a better way, that is, through Deng Yi, who has now been temporarily seized by her and reduced to her nominal deputy general. The forces of the Celestial Maiden in white have been stationed here for a long time, and they should have received a lot of news from all over the world.

Deng Yi was helpless, he couldn't refuse Kong Hong's request, so he could only compile the compiled news from all over the country and provide it to Kong Hong for reading. This contains the latest information about the Dark Legion.

According to the intelligence, the Dark Legion once again attacked the Huicheng defended by the Qi State, and the battle lasted for nearly three days.
