Chapter 428: Are You Friends Like This?
I looked at those deep eyes like a blue spring, and my heart sank a little, is he trying to blackmail us?
I know he's right, with the current situation in Yecheng, let alone an hour, it's good to be able to hold on for half an hour. It is not terrible for Yecheng to be breached, but what will he do to the people of Yecheng after the terrible attack on Yecheng?
There should be a beginning and an end to doing things, and we can't abandon the people of Yecheng for our own safety. I'm not afraid to stay as a hostage, with our martial arts, it may not be easy to break out of the Qi camp, but it should be no problem to sneak out.
What I don't understand is, why did Xiao Yao keep us as hostages?
Our current identity is just the people of Yecheng, and it is useless for him to keep us, and he can't threaten anyone at all?
Could it be that he had some other purpose?
What could it be?
I couldn't make up my mind, and looked at Xuan Feilun and Jia Siwen.
Seeing my inquiring eyes, Xuan Feilun whispered, "Do you think his words are credible?" I don't think this person is that simple! ”
Jia Siwen followed and said: "I also think this person is not simple. He paused, then added, "Still, there's nothing strange about him not believing us." With our current situation, even if it is surrendered, he may not necessarily accept it, let alone negotiate? His request is not excessive. ”
I nodded, lowered my voice, and said, "yes, that's not too much. I think ......"
Qi quickly listened to it and interjected: "You are just cowardly, you will be a hostage, what is there to be afraid of." Not to mention this big camp, even if it is an impregnable wall, I can come and go freely. Since he wants to keep us, it is better for us to stay in his barracks, make a fuss about his barracks, and make him regret leaving us. As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Yao with a provocative gaze, looking indifferent.
In his opinion, the purpose of wanting to stay is because it is fun, and nothing else matters. For the words of such a person who thinks differently from ordinary people, we all tacitly assume that we have not heard it.
I ignored Qi Kuai and continued to whisper my thoughts to Xuan Feilun and Jia Siwen, "I think we can stay." First, we can convince him of our sincerity, and second, we can take advantage of this opportunity to try to persuade Xiao Yao to take us to King Qi! ”
What is Xiao Yao's purpose in letting us stay as hostages, we can only figure it out if we stay, and we can also take this opportunity to whisper in his ear about our deep friendship with the King of Qi, maybe we can really persuade him to take us directly to the King of Qi?
Xiao Yao: He can't think of us, his condition is just right for us, right?
————
We agreed to Xiao Yao's proposal to stay as a hostage, and Xiao Yao readily agreed to our conditions, and immediately sent someone to Yecheng to negotiate.
Xiao Yao asked people to take us to two tents not far from him, I was alone in one tent, and the three of them were in the other. Xiao Yao treated us well, except that we couldn't go in and out casually, we were very thoughtful in all other aspects, eating and drinking, and the soldiers guarding us were also very polite.
That night, I honestly stayed in the tent and didn't go anywhere, and it was quiet on the flywheel, and I didn't hear any noise. We know that at this time, we had better stay quietly and wait for the dust to settle in Yecheng. This is something that I agreed with Flywheel before they parted. I am relieved of everyone else, but I am not very relieved of Qi Kuai, and when they separated, I deliberately explained that Feilun and Jia Siwen should be optimistic about Qi Kuai, so that he should not find trouble. In this way, they did a good job.
The camp was very quiet all night, without any strange or unusual sounds.
The only thing that is strange is that Xiao Yao stood silently outside his tent alone for a long time before returning to his tent, not knowing what he was doing. I was strange, but I didn't dare to explore.
The next day, part of the army outside the city camped into the city, while the other part remained in place. Xiao Yao sent one of his generals into the city with part of the army, while he himself stayed outside the city.
Seeing Xiao Yao's army enter the city in an orderly manner, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although we did not stop this war after all, we let this war end early, and it is somewhat comforting that we did not involve more innocent people in this war.
————
When the dust settles on the matter of Yecheng, we will go to see Xiao Yao immediately. The most important thing now is to go to see King Qi, we have already delayed a lot of time in Yecheng, and we can't delay it any longer.
Xiao Yao didn't embarrass us, and when he heard that we were going to see him, he directly asked people to take us to his tent.
When we arrived at Xiao Yao's tent, he was still the same as before, dressed in white and wearing a silver mask, sitting behind a carved long case, looking at a military letter. When he saw us come in, he didn't raise his head and asked casually, "What do you see of me?" ”
I said directly, "Marshal Xiao, we want to meet King Qi, if it's not Marshal Xiao, can you introduce us for us." ”
Xiao Yao still looked intently at the military blade in his hand as if he hadn't heard it, and after a while, he slowly raised his head and glanced at us with a complicated gaze before saying, "Why do you want to see him?" ”
I thought about it for a while and decided to tell the truth, "I can't hide it, we are friends of King Qi, we have very urgent and very important matters to see King Qi, please Marshal Xiao take us to see King Qi immediately!" ”
I thought that if I said this, Xiao Yao would ask something. But he didn't, just stared at mine with his eyes, and a hint of anger suddenly flashed in his eyes that had always been unwavering.
He's angry!
I was a little stunned, Qi Kuai spoke so politely yesterday, he didn't get angry, why did my words make him so angry?
Xiao Yao put down the military shackle in his hand, slowly stood up, his eyes swept over us like a sharp blade, and asked in a cold tone, "Are you friends like this?" ”
This sentence made me a little confused, where did we provoke him?
I said cautiously: "Marshal Xiao, we really have something urgent to see King Qi, can you please let us go to see King Qi?" Or do you tell us where the King of Qi is? Shall we find it ourselves? ”
As if he hadn't heard, Xiao Yao continued to ask, "Since you are friends with King Qi?" Why help his enemies? ”
After listening to Xiao Yao's questioning, I suddenly understood that we had appeared on the tower of Yecheng before, and later came here to negotiate with him instead of General Liao. Whatever our purpose is, in his eyes, we are the people of the court and his enemies. It's ridiculous that we are brazenly saying that we are friends of King Qi now, no wonder he is so angry.
Alas, in this way, we do have some confusion. People are anxious and unwise, and they all blame us for being too anxious to see King Qi and not thinking about it thoroughly.
Facing the aggressive Xiao Yao, Xuan Feilun and they couldn't bear it anymore, and they were secretly ready to meet the enemy.
