Chapter 60: The Scheme

"Nangong Yan, save me! Save me! Yu Qiqi struggled hard, unwilling to let himself get close to him for half a minute.

Nangong Yan immediately stood up from the ground, holding the sword in his left hand, looking a little struggling, but he still threatened the king of Xichu County with a proud face, "You hurry up and let her go!" ”

The King of Xichu County sneered, and gently stroked Yu Qiqi's tear-stained cheek with one hand, "Not only will this king not let go, but he will also treat her well." ”

His warm breath covered her face, making her feel sick.

As soon as these words came out, the sword in Nangong Yan's hand slashed towards his neck, with a strong force, and when it was about to fall on his neck, he suddenly flashed, making him pounce.

Yu Qiqi, who was thrown aside by him, was tightly held by the guard, unable to move.

"Then let's see, do you have that ability?!" Nangong Yan shouted at him, and the two fought under the torches reflected in the sky, holding a sword in his left hand, and the tricks he used were just as vigorous and resolute, but his strength was a little weaker.

The king of Xichu County was like an ethereal wind, flashing extremely fast, confusing Nangong Yan's vision into a blur, and seeing a trace of dizziness floating in his eyes, he twisted his eyebrows, endured the uncomfortable strength in his heart, and tried to make himself stand on his heels and find his flaws.

After a while, his eyes froze, and the sword in his hand stabbed out, just stabbing the squeaky nest of the king of Xichu County, but the sword was a little off, only piercing his robe, and did not let him see blood.

He raised his head, smiled at Nangong Yanyin, and slammed his palm out, hitting his heart hard, "Wow! With a bang, Nangong Yan spat out a mouthful of blood, staining his gold-trimmed robe red.

"Nangong Yan!" Yu Qiqi shouted, tears falling down, his eyes were full of bloodshots, "Don't fight, don't beat him..."

Hearing her begging for mercy, Nangong Yan slowly raised his head, the sword in his hand propped up on the ground, allowing him to barely stand firm, "What are you begging him for, if I die, I will die, and you don't need to be so low as him!" "She is his crown princess, and she can only beg him for mercy, and other men cannot enjoy such rights.

"You listen to me, don't fight anymore, if you die, how can I explain to my grandmother..."She still remembered what the Queen Mother had said before she died.

Nangong Yan stared at her tightly, her eyes flashed with a layer of complicated emotions, some anxious, some resentful, and some pity, "It's you who saves you, and it's you who doesn't let you save, do you think Your Highness is so easy to fool?!" He raised his hand and vigorously wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"I don't want those spirits anymore, I just want you to live well..."At this moment, all her fierceness was consumed, and she was only left with a low voice pleading for the king of Xichu County.

She broke free from the guards' confinement, ran to the king of Xichu County, knelt down at him, raised her head and begged him, "You let him go, let them go, I'll stay." ”

"What are you doing?! You get up! You get up! Seeing her kneeling towards the king of Xichu County, Nangong Yan's scarlet eyes were full of anger, and he dragged her up from the ground, but he didn't stand firmly, but he fell backwards, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Yu Qiqi's face was shocked, and when he wanted to help him up, he was stopped by the king of Xichu County, he dragged her to his side, and hooked her jaw with his hand, "Okay, you obediently stay with this king, and this king will let them go." ”

Her eyes trembled lightly, and fell on Nangong Yan, who was still lying on the ground, with ruthless eyes in his eyes, threatening the king of Xichu County, "Dare to touch her, you will die!" ”

That tone is like defending what she loves the most, not letting others touch her.

The eyes of the king of Xichu County drooped slightly, and suddenly his eyes flashed, the sword in Nangong Yan's hand had been tightly held in his hand by him with internal force, and the blade fell to his neck, "His Royal Highness the Prince, it is your honor to die in the hands of this king, let this king personally finish you off tonight!" ”

When the words fell, he raised the sword in his hand, "Don't! Yu Qiqi shouted, lowered his head and bit his wrist fiercely, and the king of Xichu County twisted his eyebrows, but the force of his hand was not reduced by half a point.

Suddenly, a sharp sword flew in the air and stabbed towards his wrist, and the sword in the hand of the King of Western Chu County had not yet touched Nangong Yan's neck, so he had to dodge in a hurry, avoiding the sword in front of him that was bubbling with cold light.

A figure landed steadily in front of them, catching the sword, Chu Peiyu frowned slightly, and helped Nangong Yan on the ground, "Your Highness, I've kept you waiting!" ”

Outside, there was a deafening sound of fighting.

Yu Qiqi was still biting the wrist of the King of Xichu County, and the sound of the fight outside made him anxious, he twisted his eyebrows and slapped her the heart.

"Seventy-seven..."

Hearing her muffled snort, Nangong Yan hurriedly caught her.

"What's going on out there?!" The king of Xichu grabbed a guard who ran in from the outside and asked with a roar.

"The county, the king... Yanjing's uncle attacked from the outside with the Imperial Forest Army, they brought smoke bombs and archers, and the door of the mansion was quickly smashed open by them. The guard replied resignedly.

Hearing this, he loosened the guard's placket, turned his head and looked at Nangong Yan with a pair of vicious eyes, "It turns out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still has a back hand." ”

Nangong Yan sneered, "Your Highness's backhand is not only this move, your eyeliner in Yanjing City, I have already asked Gu Xia to clean it up." ”

"What did you say?!"

His words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, falling on the top of the head of the king of Western Chu, making his eyes widen for a moment.

"At this moment, I think it's almost cleaned up." Finally, he added.

"Catch them all, and let none of them go!" Nangong Yan's words completely angered him, and the ruthless eyes of the king of Xichu County swept over them one by one.

"Yes!"

Suddenly, more guards came up and surrounded the courtyard.

"King Jun, I advise you, or stop quickly, if this matter is a little bigger, you will not be able to come back if you are with the King of Western Chu."

Nangong Yan looked at these guards and opened his mouth to negotiate with him.

"What? Scared? "But the king of Xichu didn't plan to stop, and he didn't mean to stop.

"I'm just kind enough to advise, it's up to you whether you listen or not, we can also fight to the death. It's just that His Highness doesn't think it's worth it for you, you killed us, and you have to clean up the bigger mess later, why do you have to struggle so much? ”

The troops brought over by Chu Peiyu and Shen Feihong, Nangong Yan has a number in his heart, Gu Xia has a number in his heart to deal with Wu Lian, he also has a number in his heart, in this battle, the chance of them winning is not great, but even if the king of Western Chu County wins, he really needs to clean up a big mess later, since there is still a chance to live, he will not let it go like this!

Sure enough, the King of Xichu County seemed to have listened to what he said later, and there was a hint of reading in his eyes, and his brows tightened slightly, "If this king lets you go, will this matter be settled like this?" ”

"Naturally, as long as I take all the responsibility for this matter, I can tell my father when I go back that the king of Xichu County just invited the crown princess to come to the mansion as a guest, but I was reckless and thoughtful for a while, and I transferred the Imperial Forest Army of the East Palace to come over and do it with you, and you had to fight with me as a last resort, and you will have all your reasons in this matter."

As soon as he said this, Yu Qiqi's hand holding his sleeve tightened, he lowered his eyes and comforted her softly, "I'm fine." In his voice, there was still a tired hoarseness.

The king of Xichu County stared at him tightly, thinking carefully about what he had just said, in fact, it was not entirely unreasonable, if he lost this opportunity, he could still reorganize the forces and troops in the court, but if he resisted stubbornly, it was very likely that he would not even have the next chance.

"Well, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, remember what you said tonight." He told Nangong Yan, and then, with a wave of his hand at the guards behind him, the guards who surrounded them immediately got out of the way and exited a road.

Nangong Yan helped Yu Qiqi and walked outside step by step. Chu Peiyu took Ah Jian and Yan Shiqing and followed him.

Outside the courtyard, Shen Feihong had just rushed in with the Imperial Forest Army, and when he saw Nangong Yan injured like this, he hurriedly ran forward to help, but he refused, "Uncle Huang will stay here first, and when we exit, you will withdraw with the Imperial Forest Army." "The King of Xichu County has always been cunning, and he must take care of every step back.

Shen Feihong withdrew his hand and nodded vigorously, "It's all up to you!" ”

After the group retreated to the outside of the county king's mansion, Shen Feihong also retreated with the Royal Forest Army, and this night could be regarded as a thrill.

Overnight, they rushed back to Yanjing.

As soon as Nangong Yan and the others left, Wu Lian also came back from Yanjing City, and she knelt in front of the King of Xichu County, "King of the County!" We Zhongnan Gong Yan remembered! ”

The king of Xichu stretched out his hand and stopped her, "This king already knows!" ”

Wu Lian raised her head, her eyes full of puzzlement, and she hesitated for a moment before speaking, "However, why did you just let them go like that?" ”

Speaking of this, the king of Xichu County became angry and roared at her: "Do you think he has only made preparations? Shen Feihong took the Imperial Forest Army in Nangong Yandong Palace to the king's county palace! Why can't you notice it at all in Yanjing City?! ”

Wu Lian was stunned for a moment, and immediately lowered her head, "It's the slave's fault!" ”

He took a deep breath and closed his narrow eyes, "Are your people seriously losing money in Yanjing City?" ”

"It's not serious, it's just that there has been no news from the county king, so we can only evacuate first." Before she went to Yanjing, they had discussed that if everything went well on his side, then she could do it in Yanjing City, and there was no need to leave a way back, but she didn't wait for his news.

"What?!"

Suddenly, the king of Xichu opened his eyes and looked at her with shocked eyes.

"Well, Gu Xia and the little troops in his hands are not our opponents at all, not to mention, when Yanjing attacked Nanzhao the year before last, they had already lost a lot of troops, and this time, their heavy troops were all guarded at the border passes, and they were not fully prepared for our sudden invasion."

This is also something that Wu Lian can't figure out, the king of Xichu County should have expected this a long time ago, but why can't he wait for his news for a long time.

He snorted coldly, and his back was covered with a layer of cold sweat, "Nangong Yan!" He clenched his hands and slammed the stake beneath him.

"Don't worry, we still have a chance!"

Sensing that something was wrong with him, Wu Lian opened her mouth to comfort him.

"Get up." The King of Xichu County sighed, and then continued: "Tonight's incident, the blame lies with me, I shouldn't have listened to the words of that villain Nangong Yan, I missed such a good opportunity this time!" ”

"However, maybe what Nangong Yan said is right, if we really act rashly tonight, the mess to be cleaned up will be even greater." She stood beside him and whispered.

Perhaps still trapped in the remorse of tonight, the king of Xichu County ignored her anymore, and only slowly closed his eyes. Wu Lian bowed her head at him and stepped back softly.

When the sky was slightly bright, Nangong Yan and the others returned to Yanjing City, and parted ways on the way. Qing Yu took Yan Shiqing back to the Proton Mansion, Shen Feihong went back to his uncle's mansion, and Nangong Yan took Yu Qiqi and Chu Peiyu back to the East Palace.

He opened his mouth and instructed Chu Peiyu, "Let Zhao Niang take good care of the crown princess." After that, he asked an attendant to help him back to the Chenghe Palace.

Although the wounds on the two of them had been cleaned on the way back, they still had to ask a doctor to come over and take a closer look.

Chu Peiyu bowed slightly, and took Yu Qiqi and A Jian to the Yaoguang Palace.

Before Nangong Yan could wake up, Gu Xia had already come to the gate of his hall and was stopped by Chu Peiyu, "Your Highness was seriously injured last night and hasn't woken up yet, Lord Gu, please wait." ”

"Seriously?"

He frowned, eagerness on his face.

"Let's wait until Your Highness wakes up." Chu Peiyu didn't tell him about the injury, so as not to think too much.

"Alright, I'll wait for him here!" Gu Xia's tone was not good, maybe it was because last night's incident was not handled well, and it was estimated that Nangong Yan would not leave if he didn't see him.

Chu Peiyu didn't embarrass him, he let him wait if he was willing to wait.

It wasn't until sunset that the chamberlain opened the door from the inside and said to Gu Xia, "Lord Gu, please come in." "The voice is neither light nor heavy.

Gu Xia turned around, his thick eyebrows and big eyes glared, didn't it make it clear that Nangong Yan knew that he was coming early on, but he didn't want to see him.

He furrowed his eyebrows and walked in hard, Nangong Yan was sitting on the bench, bowing his head and drinking tea, he bowed his head lightly at him, "Your Highness." ”

Nangong Yan brushed the tea in the teacup with the tea lid and glanced at him, "What's the matter?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, I don't know who used it to make an article last night, and it has already made a fuss in the court, and last night, the strength of our soldiers and horses alone failed to stop those gangsters, they originally had a chance to attack the palace, but for some reason, they suddenly evacuated..."

His tone didn't sound very good, and Gu Xia had to keep his head down, not daring to look up at him.

"Then why don't you shut up the news?" Nangong Yan quietly put the teacup in his hand on the table, and when he put it down, he made a violent sound.

Gu Xia's legs were weak, and he almost didn't kneel on the ground, "It's not that the lowly position didn't block the news, it's just that those people are really menacing, and they have made preparations, the news given by His Highness is too late, and the lowly position can only hastily gather people, this, this can't be taken care of..."

There was a layer of sweat on the corner of his forehead, and Gu Xia didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it.

Nangong Yan only sat and didn't reply to his words, what he said was not completely unreasonable, and the people who let him hastily prepare people to deal with the king of Western Chu County did have a lot of shortcomings.

Just when Gu Xia felt that his whole body was suppressed and he couldn't breathe, Nangong Yan slowly spoke, "Father, he punished you?" "It is his responsibility to protect the security of Yanjing City, Emperor Yanjing wants to blame, and the first person to find is him.

"The emperor scolded the humble duty for being unfavorable, and the humble duty was convenient, so he told His Royal Highness about the humble duty..."

"You!"

Nangong Yan stretched out his finger and pointed at him angrily, he didn't expect Gu Xia to sell him so quickly. Seeing his helpless expression, he took his finger back angrily, "Okay, you go back first!" ”

"Yes." Gu Xia replied and hurriedly retreated, for fear that Nangong Yan would be angry with him.

"Your Highness, do you want to enter the palace?" Chu Peiyu walked in from the outside.

"Yes, get someone to prepare the carriage." He propped his forehead with his hands, and his words were still tired.

"Hmm."

Chu Peiyu bowed slightly.

Emperor Yan Jing had been waiting for him in the imperial study for a long time, and at this time, seeing him walking in with empty steps, the look on his face was not much better, "What happened last night, you explain it to me well." ”

On the way into the palace, Nangong Yan had already thought of countermeasures, his face was calm and calm at the moment, but there was nothing displeased, he only slowly replied, "Back to my father, what happened in Yanjing City last night was not the fault of the sons, but I took the Imperial Forest Army to the county palace in Xichu to snatch back the crown princess, and I didn't ask my father, but the sons were at fault." ”

The words he promised the King of Xichu County were originally used to bluff him, and he would not say those words again in front of Emperor Yan Jing at this moment.

"Since you know that the people of Xichu want to plot against me, why didn't you report it to me earlier, let me deploy it and take them down in one fell swoop!"

Emperor Yan Jing squinted, as if he felt that he had a leg with the king of Western Chu County, and wanted to join forces to put him to death.

"Father, the son-in-law was also in a hurry to save Qiqi, and only then did he find out that their people were in Yanjing City, so he hurriedly instructed Commander Gu, and then rushed to Xichu to save her. It's just that I didn't expect that the strength of the Soldiers and Horses Division could not match the people of the King of Xichu County. ”

He has already made it clear enough that even if he is deployed in advance, the few people in the Soldiers and Horses Division are not enough to pity the people under him.

"Why don't you tell me about Qiqi's distress?" After all, it was father and son, and Emperor Yan Jing didn't believe his words so easily.

"Erchen was afraid that his father would worry, so he didn't say much. And at that time, the people of the king of Xichu County were in Yanjing City, and this matter should not be exposed too much, in case they found out, not only would the sons and daughters not be able to save Qiqi, but the father and emperor would also be in danger here. At that time, we will really be calculated by him. ”

Nangong Yan spread out the dangers to him one by one.

Emperor Yan Jing's mood slowly stabilized, "I really didn't expect that the king of Xichu County would have such wolf ambitions!" ”

"Father, with the incident of last night, you must be careful to watch out for the people of Xichu in the future." He frowned slightly, as if he had something to say.

Emperor Yan Jing frowned, sensing the deep meaning of his words.

After Nangong Yan left, he went to the Liangxi Palace, and the concubine had just stepped forward, and before she could salute, there was a burst of "pop!" in her ears. The sound of the ground sounded, and Emperor Yan Jing slapped her fiercely, knocking her to the ground.

He crouched down and grabbed her gorgeous shirt, "If you want me to die, it depends on whether you have that luck or not!" ”

Hearing this, Concubine Yi let out a sneer, "The emperor's life is really big, but don't worry, the chances of the concubines, there are many, as long as you don't kill the concubines." ”

She raised her hand and slowly wiped the blood from the corner of her lips.

"Don't worry, you can't stimulate me, I have time to play slowly with you." After he finished speaking, he let go of her hand and slowly slid it over her collarbone, and squeezed it in with a strong palm.

"Hmm..."

Concubine Yi's mouth let out a muffled snort of pain.

With a heavy blow to her collarbone, Emperor Yan Jing raised his foot and walked out of her Liangxi Palace. Concubine Yi was lying on the ground, her body trembling violently, and blood was oozing from her collarbones, staining her clothes red.

As soon as the morning dawned, he prepared a long whip, went to the palace, knelt outside the palace of the king of Western Chu, and knelt for a whole day before the door of the palace of the king of Western Chu opened.

He was dressed in an imperial robe and mopped the floor, slowly walked out of it, the crown on his head shook slightly, and his eyebrows, which had been dyed white, moved slightly, "Is the imperial brother doing this, is he slapping my imperial brother in the face?" ”

made such a big deployment last night, it turned out that he, the king of Xichu County, planned it by himself silently, and completely kept his imperial brother in the dark, what did he want to do? Do you want to seek power?

The king of Xichu didn't say anything, only put the long whip in his hand with both hands, lowered his head and waited for him to fall.

"If the imperial brother wants to sit in this position, he can directly tell the imperial brother that the imperial brother is not an unreasonable person."

The eyes of the King of Western Chu did not fall on him, but only looked at the pavilion and palace in the distance.

"The imperial brother treats the imperial brother with sincerity, the imperial brother has no intention of seeking power and codifying the throne, but just wants to help the imperial brother recover Yanjing and Nanzhao!"

His body trembled slightly, and he gritted his teeth to say this.

The king of Western Chu was very old, and during his reign, he wanted him to see the prosperity of Western Chu to recover Yanjing and Nanzhao.

"I've always known how you treat me, but this time, you've really disappointed me." He sighed, turned slowly, and the door closed again.

The guard standing on the side stepped forward, picked up the long whip in the hand of the king of Xichu County, and whipped him hard, he wrinkled his brows, and did not let out a miserable scream.

The king of Western Chu sat in the hall, listening to the sound of the whip that fell on his back, knocking on his heart one by one.

Returning from the palace, Nangong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking of Yu Qiqi, he opened his mouth and asked Chu Peiyu, "How is the crown princess's body?" ”

"The doctor said that he had internal injuries, but he was fine for two days after drinking medicine, so it shouldn't be a big deal." Chu Peiyu replied softly.

After listening, he nodded.

The carriage returned to the East Palace, Nangong Yan got off the carriage and walked to the Chenghe Palace, he didn't sleep well during the day, and the wounds on his body were still very painful. Suddenly, a figure ran towards him and threw herself into his arms, with a fragrance of fragrance, she whispered to him, "You're finally back." ”
